Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of equipment production material feeding technology, specifically relating to a headrest guide sleeve feeding device. Background Technology
[0002] In current equipment manufacturing, the number and variety of parts are numerous and inconsistent across different processes. If the matching and addition of these parts are done manually, firstly, the error rate is high, easily leading to a high scrap rate; secondly, the efficiency is low, as the accuracy of manual loading and unloading is certainly inferior to that of machinery; and thirdly, the risk is high, as the operating trajectory and movements of machinery are fixed during operation. If a person's body or hand enters the operating area of the equipment, the machine will not recognize it and will continue to operate according to its predetermined trajectory, which can easily lead to collisions and injuries. Therefore, how to efficiently load and unload parts to reduce scrap rates, improve efficiency, and ensure safety is a crucial consideration in the production process. Utility Model Content
[0003] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a headrest guide sleeve feeding device. The workpiece is vibrated into the feeding seat by a vibrator for preparation and selection, while the suction head moves the workpiece to be selected and places it on the feeding seat for timely picking by the robot arm, thereby reducing the scrap rate, improving efficiency, and ensuring safety.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:
[0005] A headrest guide sleeve feeding device includes a worktable, a feeding assembly, a loading assembly, and a workpiece. The worktable is provided with a feeding seat, a transferring component, and a loading seat. The feeding assembly abuts against the feeding seat, and the workpiece enters the feeding seat through the feeding assembly. The transferring component includes a moving component and a suction head. The suction head reciprocates between the feeding seat and the loading seat under the drive of the moving component, and the suction head adsorbs and moves the workpiece on the feeding seat to the loading seat. The loading assembly includes a robot arm, which clamps the workpiece on the loading seat.
[0006] The feeding assembly includes a vibrating feeder and an output seat. The output seat is disposed on the vibrating feeder and abuts against the feeding seat. The workpiece includes several pieces. Several workpieces are placed in the vibrating feeder and gradually move along the output seat and enter the feeding seat.
[0007] The moving component includes a transverse moving component and a longitudinal moving component. The suction head is disposed on the longitudinal moving component, the longitudinal moving component is disposed on the transverse moving component, and the transverse moving component is disposed on the worktable.
[0008] The headrest guide sleeve feeding device with this structure places the workpiece in the vibrating feeder. The vibration of the vibrating feeder gradually sorts the workpieces into the output seat. The sorted workpieces then enter the feeding seat for selection, while the excess workpieces are reciprocated in the vibrating feeder. The function of the transfer component on the worktable is to move the workpieces from the feeding seat to the loading seat. In order to achieve lateral movement, a moving component consisting of a lateral moving component and a longitudinal moving component is set. The suction head is initially located above the workpiece in the feeding seat. Driven by the longitudinal moving component, the suction head moves downward and abuts against the workpiece. The workpiece is clamped by clamping or negative pressure adsorption. The longitudinal moving component moves the workpiece upward, and then it moves laterally to the top of the loading seat under the drive of the lateral moving component. The longitudinal moving component is driven again to place the workpiece on the loading seat, thus realizing the displacement of the workpiece. The robot arm then clamps the workpiece from the loading seat and enters the next process for production.
[0009] Furthermore, the loading seat is provided with a limiting platform, a placement platform and a tube straightener. The placement platform is located between the limiting platform and the tube straightener. The workpiece is fitted onto the placement platform. The workpiece is pushed out by the output end of the tube straightener and abuts against the limiting platform. The loading seat includes several sets. The robotic arm is provided with several sets of suction heads. Several suction heads correspond to several loading seats.
[0010] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are as follows: the feeding component gradually sorts the workpieces and puts them into the feeding seat for selection, and then the moving component moves the workpieces to the loading seat for the robot to grip and enter the next process for production. For repetitive work, feeding at one end and clamping and placing at the other end can effectively improve production efficiency, reduce manual intervention, and thus ensure production safety.

[0018] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not all of them. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0019] The specific embodiments of this utility model will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings:
[0020] like Figure 1-5 As shown, a headrest guide sleeve feeding device includes a worktable 1, a feeding assembly 2, a feeding assembly 3, and a workpiece 4. The worktable 1 is provided with a feeding seat 11, a transferring component 12, and a feeding seat 13. The feeding assembly 2 abuts against the feeding seat 11, and the workpiece 4 enters the feeding seat 11 through the feeding assembly 2. The transferring component 12 includes a moving component 121 and a suction head 122. The suction head 122 reciprocates between the feeding seat 11 and the feeding seat 13 under the drive of the moving component 121. The suction head 122 adsorbs and moves the workpiece 4 on the feeding seat 11 to the feeding seat 13. The feeding assembly 3 includes a robot arm 31, which clamps the workpiece 4 on the feeding seat 13.
[0021] The feeding assembly 2 includes a vibrator 21 and an outlet seat 22. The outlet seat 22 is disposed on the vibrator 21 and abuts against the feeding seat 11. The workpiece 4 includes several pieces. Several workpieces 4 are placed in the vibrator 21 and gradually move along the outlet seat 22 and enter the feeding seat 11.
[0022] The moving component 121 includes a transverse moving component 123 and a longitudinal moving component 124. The suction head 122 is disposed on the longitudinal moving component 124, the longitudinal moving component 124 is disposed on the transverse moving component 123, and the transverse moving component 123 is disposed on the worktable 1.
[0023] Furthermore, the loading seat 13 is provided with a limiting platform 131, a placement platform 132, and a tube straightener 133. The placement platform 132 is located between the limiting platform 131 and the tube straightener 133. The workpiece 4 is fitted onto the placement platform 132. The workpiece 4 is pushed out by the output end of the tube straightener 133 and abuts against the limiting platform 131. The loading seat 13 includes several sets. The robot arm 31 is provided with several sets of suction heads 32. Several suction heads 32 correspond to several loading seats 13.
[0024] Description of the working principle of this utility model:
[0025] The headrest guide sleeve feeding device with this structure places the workpiece 4 in the vibrating feeder 21. The vibration of the vibrating feeder 21 gradually sorts the workpiece 4 into the guide seat 22. The sorted workpieces 4 then enter the feed seat 11 for selection. Excess workpieces 4 are repeatedly fed into the vibrating feeder 21. The transferring component 12 on the worktable 1 moves the workpiece 4 from the feed seat 11 to the loading seat 13. To achieve lateral movement, a moving component 121 consisting of a lateral moving component 123 and a longitudinal moving component 124 is provided. The suction head 1... The suction head 122, initially positioned above the workpiece 4 on the feed seat 11, moves downward under the drive of the longitudinal moving member 124 and abuts against the workpiece 4. The workpiece 4 is gripped by clamping or negative pressure adsorption. The workpiece 4 is then moved upward by the longitudinal moving member 124 and laterally moved above the loading seat 13 under the drive of the transverse moving member 123. The longitudinal moving member 124 is then driven again to place the workpiece 4 on the loading seat 13, thus achieving the displacement of the workpiece 4. The robot arm 31 then grips the workpiece 4 from the loading seat 13 and proceeds to the next process for production.
[0026] Since workpiece 4 is in a standby state within the feed seat 11, after it is moved to the loading seat 13, it will be directly used in the production process during subsequent gripping operations by the robot arm 31. Therefore, it is necessary to maintain a relatively consistent position before entering the subsequent production process to ensure subsequent production accuracy. Thus, the loading seat 13 is equipped with a limiting stage 131, a placement stage 132, and a straightener 133. After being gripped and placed on the placement stage 132, workpiece 4 is pushed and pressed against the limiting stage 131 by the straightener 133, achieving positional alignment and ensuring that the workpiece is gripped by the robot arm 31 each time. All four have been positioned to ensure subsequent production accuracy. However, since the robot arm 31 takes a long time to operate, while the time interval between the workpiece 4 moving from the feed seat 11 to the loading seat 13 is very short, if the robot arm 31 only clamps a single workpiece 4 each time, the production efficiency will be very low. Therefore, the loading seat 13 is set with several sets of suction heads 122 accelerating between the feed seat 11 and the loading seat 13 to load and align the workpiece 4 for several sets of loading seats 13. The several sets of suction heads 32 on the robot arm 31 can pick up the workpiece 4 from several sets of loading seats 13 at once, thereby improving the production efficiency.
[0027] The limiting platform 131 may also be provided with an adjusting column 134, which passes through the limiting platform 131 and abuts against the workpiece 4 on the placement platform 132. The adjusting column 134 is arranged opposite to the tube straightener 133. Therefore, when it is necessary to adjust the specific position of the workpiece 4, the position of the workpiece 4 on the placement platform 132 can be adjusted by turning the adjusting column 134, so as to adapt to the position requirements of different workpieces 4 and make the production equipment more flexible in dealing with different types of workpieces 4.
[0028] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: the feeding component 2 gradually sorts the workpieces 4 and puts them into the feeding seat 11 for selection. Then, the moving component 121 moves the workpieces 4 to the loading seat 13 for the robot arm 31 to grip and enter the next process for production. Moreover, the tube straightener 133 straightens the workpieces 4 on the loading seat 13, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the production process. In addition, since there is a difference between the running time of the robot arm 31 and the running time of the material transfer component 12, several sets of loading seats 13 are set up. The suction head 122 accelerates between the feeding seat 11 and the loading seat 13, increasing the number of workpieces 4 that the robot arm 31 can pick up at one time, thereby balancing the production time and improving work efficiency. For repetitive work, feeding at one end and clamping and placing at the other end can effectively improve production efficiency, reduce manual intervention, and thus ensure production safety.
[0029] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features therein.
