Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of sheet metal stacking, specifically a material blocking structure and a stacking machine tool. Background Technology
[0002] Current automated sheet metal processing requires stacking the processed sheets. The typical stacking process involves sending the processed sheets to a transfer table, which then moves the sheets above the stacking table. A material-blocking device lowers to stop the sheets, the transfer table moves backward, and the sheets fall onto the stacking table. Because there is a certain height difference between the stacking table and the transfer table, the processed sheets often slide off the transfer table onto the stacking table during the stacking process, resulting in uneven stacking and affecting the subsequent stacking of sheets.
[0003] Therefore, existing technologies need to be improved. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this application proposes a material blocking structure and a palletizing machine.
[0005] Firstly, a material-stopping structure employs the following technical solution:
[0006] A material-stopping structure includes a material-stopping beam, a clamping base plate, a clamping cylinder, and a pushing cylinder. The material-stopping beam is slidably mounted on an external machine tool. The clamping base plate is located at the bottom of the material-stopping beam and extends laterally from it. The clamping base plate is used to support one side of the sheet material. The clamping cylinder is located on the material-stopping beam and is used to press one side of the sheet material against the clamping base plate. The pushing cylinder is located on the material-stopping beam and is used to push the sheet material out of the clamping base plate.
[0007] Preferably, multiple sets of the clamping base plate and the clamping cylinder are evenly arranged on the baffle beam.
[0008] Preferably, multiple pusher cylinders are provided, and the multiple pusher cylinders are respectively provided on both sides of the baffle beam.
[0009] Preferably, the stop beam is equipped with a bidirectional cylinder, one output end of which is connected to the stop beam and the other output end is connected to an external machine tool.
[0010] Preferably, a lifting slider is provided on the stop beam, and the lifting slider is connected to an external machine tool via a slide rail.
[0011] Secondly, a palletizing machine tool adopts the following technical solution:
[0012] A palletizing machine includes a frame, a transfer platform, a palletizing platform, and the aforementioned retaining structure. The transfer platform slides horizontally on the frame, and the palletizing platform is disposed on the frame and positioned below the transfer platform. The retaining structure is disposed on the side of the palletizing platform near the transfer platform and is used to place sheet metal on the palletizing platform.
[0013] Preferably, the transfer platform is provided with a plurality of evenly distributed columns, one end of which is connected to the transfer platform and the other end is used to abut against the plate.
[0014] In summary, this application has the following beneficial effects:
[0015] After the processed sheet metal is moved to the transfer platform by the external robotic arm, the transfer platform, under the action of the external mechanical structure, moves the sheet metal above the stacking platform. Then, the bidirectional cylinder is activated, causing one of its output ends to extend, lowering the stop beam to a predetermined position. The transfer platform then retracts, and one side of the sheet metal, driven by the transfer platform, will be positioned between the clamping base plate and the clamping cylinder. At this point, the output end of the clamping cylinder extends, clamping one side of the sheet metal between the clamping base plate and the clamping cylinder. The transfer platform continues to retract until it is fully reset. At this point, one side of the sheet metal will fall onto the stacking platform under gravity, while the other end will be... The material is suspended and clamped, and then the other end of the bidirectional cylinder is activated to lower the baffle beam by one distance. Finally, the pusher cylinder is activated to push the material down. Compared with the direct sliding from the transfer platform to the stacking platform, this design pre-places one side of the material on the stacking platform and then pushes the other side down. This allows the material to be kept in the predetermined position as much as possible. In addition, the baffle beam has a process of lowering again, so that the processed material can fall from a lower height when stacking. This can reduce the error caused by the other side falling and keep the material as neat as possible during the stacking process, so as not to affect the subsequent stacking of materials.

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model.
[0022] This application discloses a material-stopping structure. (Refer to...) Figure 1 The material-stopping structure 4 includes a material-stopping beam 41, a clamping base plate 42, a clamping cylinder 43, and a pushing cylinder 44. Specifically, the material-stopping beam 41 is elongated and slidably connected to an external machine tool, with the sliding direction of the material-stopping beam 41 being vertical. The clamping base plate 42 is mounted on the material-stopping beam 41 and is located on the lower side of the material-stopping beam 41. The extension direction of the clamping base plate 42 is perpendicular to the material-stopping beam 41 and extends out from the material-stopping beam 41. The housing of the clamping cylinder 43 is fixedly mounted... The clamping cylinder 43 is positioned on the retaining beam 41 and is located above the clamping base plate 42. The output end of the clamping cylinder 43 is positioned directly opposite the clamping base plate 42. The output end of the clamping cylinder 43 cooperates with the clamping base plate 42 to clamp one side of the plate. The pushing cylinder 44 is positioned on the retaining beam 41, and the pushing cylinder 44, the clamping cylinder 43, and the clamping base plate 42 are all located on the same side of the retaining beam 41. The output end of the pushing cylinder 44 pushes out in a horizontal direction to push the plate out of the clamping base plate 42.
[0023] To ensure neater stacking of the boards, the following configuration is implemented: First, a bidirectional cylinder 5 is installed on the baffle beam 41. The two output ends of the bidirectional cylinder 5 face opposite directions. The lower output end of the bidirectional cylinder 5 is fixedly connected to the baffle beam 41, and the upper output end is fixedly connected to the external frame 1. The housing of the bidirectional cylinder 5 is not connected, allowing the baffle beam 41 to descend twice. This ensures that the processed boards fall from a lower height during stacking, maximizing the neatness of the boards during the stacking process. First, the clamping base plate 42 and clamping cylinder 43 are provided in multiple sets. The multiple sets of clamping base plates 42 and clamping cylinders 43 are evenly arranged on the baffle beam 41, so when clamping the plate, one side of the plate can be clamped as completely as possible to avoid deviation. Second, the pushing cylinder 44 is provided in multiple sets. The multiple sets of pushing cylinders 44 are also evenly arranged on the baffle beam 41. When pushing the plate, the multiple sets of pushing cylinders 44 will push the plate out of the clamping base plate 42 evenly, which can prevent the plate from deviating.
[0024] In this embodiment, in order to make the up-and-down movement of the stop beam 41 more stable, a lifting slider 6 is provided on the stop beam 41. There are two lifting sliders 6, which are respectively located at both ends of the stop beam. The two lifting sliders 6 are respectively connected to the external machine tool through slide rails, so that the stop beam 41 is more stable during the up-and-down process and is less prone to deviation.
[0025] This application also discloses a palletizing machine tool, which includes a frame 1, a transfer platform 2, a palletizing platform 3, and a retaining structure 4. Specifically, the frame 1 serves as a load-bearing structure for the installation of other structures. The transfer platform 2 is slidably mounted on the frame 1 and slides in a horizontal plane. The palletizing platform 3 is also mounted on the frame 1, with a height lower than that of the transfer platform 2. The transfer platform 2 can slide above the palletizing platform 3. The retaining structure 4 is mounted on the frame 1 and is located on the side of the palletizing platform 3 closest to the transfer platform 2. The plates located on the transfer platform 2 can be stably and neatly stacked on the palletizing platform 3 through the retaining structure 4.
[0026] Therefore, after the external robotic arm transports the processed sheet metal to the transfer platform 2, the transfer platform 2 will bring the sheet metal to the top of the stacking platform 3. At this time, one of the output ends of the bidirectional cylinder 5 will be activated to make the baffle beam 41 descend vertically until the sheet metal is aligned with the gap between the clamping base plate 42 and the clamping cylinder 43. Then, the transfer platform 2 will move the sheet metal backward. When one side of the sheet metal is inserted into the gap between the clamping plate and the clamping cylinder 43, the clamping cylinder 43 will be activated to clamp one side of the sheet metal onto the clamping base plate 42. The transfer platform 2 will continue to move backward until it returns to its original position. At this time, one side of the sheet metal will be under the influence of gravity. The material hangs down on the palletizing platform 3, while the other side is clamped on the retaining beam 41. Then, the other output end of the bidirectional cylinder 5 extends to lower the retaining beam 41 further. Finally, the clamping cylinder 43 is released, and the pushing cylinder 44 on the retaining beam 41 pushes the material out. Through the two descents of the bidirectional cylinder 5, one side of the material can fall at a lower angle, reducing the error caused by the fall of that side. The other side abuts against the palletizing platform 3 in advance, keeping the material in the predetermined position as much as possible and keeping the material neat during the palletizing process, so as not to affect the subsequent palletizing.
[0027] In this embodiment, multiple columns 21 are provided on the transfer platform 2 and are evenly distributed on the transfer platform 2. The column 21 has a brush-like structure. One end of the column 21 is fixedly connected to the transfer platform 2, and the other end is used to abut against the plate to lift and suspend the plate. When the transfer platform 2 moves backward, on the one hand, it is convenient to insert the plate into the clamping base plate 42 and the clamping cylinder 43 to avoid collisions; on the other hand, it can prevent scratches on the plate when it slides relative to the transfer platform 2.
[0028] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
