Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0021] Please refer toFigs. 1-3 In this embodiment of the utility model, the novel dual-trolley interactive loading and unloading platform includes an overall frame 1. The overall frame 1 is provided with two material bins. The two material bins of the overall frame 1 are respectively placed with a unloading trolley 2 and a loading trolley 3. The unloading trolley 2 and the loading trolley 3 are used to place material trays 6. The material tray transfer component 4 is installed at the rear end of the two material bins inside the overall frame 1. The material tray transfer component 4 is used to transfer the material trays 6 on the loading trolley 3 to the material picking station and the unloading trolley 2.

[0022] The top and rear ends of the overall frame 1 are also equipped with loading and unloading components 5, which are used to realize the loading and unloading operations of the material tray 6 between the material picking station and the processing station.

[0023] The material tray transfer assembly 4 includes a vertical lifting assembly 401, a left and right transfer device 402, and a material tray gripping device 403;

[0024] The vertical lifting assembly 401 is installed at the rear end of the two hoppers of the overall frame 1, the left and right transfer device 402 is installed on the front end face of the slide of the vertical lifting assembly 401, and the material tray gripping device 403 is installed on the front end face of the slide of the left and right transfer device 402.

[0025] The vertical lifting assembly 401 is used to realize the lifting operation of the left and right transfer device 402, the left and right transfer device 402 is used to realize the horizontal movement operation of the material tray gripping device 403, and the material tray gripping device 403 is used to realize the clamping operation of the material tray 6.

[0026] The loading and unloading assembly 5 includes a collaborative robot 501 and a robot gripping device 502;

[0027] The collaborative robot 501 is installed at the top rear end of the overall frame 1, and the robot gripping device 502 is installed on the robotic arm at the front end of the collaborative robot 501.

[0028] An electrical control cabinet 7, a central control panel 8, a vertical lifting assembly 401, a left and right transfer device 402, a material tray gripping device 403, a collaborative robot 501, and the power components of the robot gripping device 502 are installed on one side of the outer wall of the overall frame 1 and are electrically connected to the electrical control cabinet 7.

[0029] In this embodiment, it should be noted that multiple layers of material trays 6 can be placed on the unloading trolley 2 and the loading trolley 3. The operating principle of this loading and unloading platform is as follows:

[0030] Manually push the loading trolley 3 into the hopper to load materials, and then push the empty unloading trolley 2 into another hopper;

[0031] Through the cooperation of the vertical lifting assembly 401 and the left-right moving device 402, the tray grabbing lifting device 403 is moved above the feeding cart 3, and the tray 6 at the top of the feeding cart 3 is grabbed. Then, the vertical lifting assembly 401 and the left-right moving device 402 are operated again, so that the tray 6 is moved to the material taking position under the action of the tray grabbing lifting device 403;

[0032] Then, the rear collaborative robot 501 is operated to move the robot grabbing device 502 to the material taking position to grab the tray 6. Then, the tray grabbing lifting device 403 releases the tray 6, and the collaborative robot 501 moves the tray 6 to the processing station. After the processing of the tray is completed, the collaborative robot 501 and the robot grabbing device 502 move the processed tray to the material taking position, so as to realize the feeding and discharging operation of the machine tool.

[0033] After the tray grabbing lifting device 403 clamps and fixes the processed tray, the left-right moving device moves the processed tray to above the left discharging cart 2. Then, the vertical lifting assembly 401 is operated to lower the tray to the discharging cart 2. The above operation is repeated until the trays in the feeding cart 3 are all processed.

[0034] It should be noted that the vertical lifting assembly 401 and the left-right moving device 402 are common electric sliding tables in the market. The vertical lifting assembly 401 and the left-right moving device 402 form an X-Z axis moving module. The collaborative robot 501 is a commonly used collaborative robot in the field of mechanical processing. The tray grabbing device 403 and the robot grabbing device 502 are common parallel electric clamps in the market, which can be matched with clamp blocks matched with the shape of the tray 6. The operation principles of the vertical lifting assembly 401, the left-right moving device 402, the tray grabbing device 403, the collaborative robot 501, and the robot grabbing device 502 are the same as those of the electric sliding table, the parallel electric clamp, and the collaborative robot. Therefore, the operation structure and principle will not be described in detail.

[0035] The electrical control cabinet 7 and the central control operation panel 8 are used for setting and controlling the operation of the vertical lifting assembly 401, the left-right moving device 402, the tray grabbing device 403, the collaborative robot 501, and the robot grabbing device 502.

[0036] Please refer to Figs. 1-2 The sensor 9 and the electromagnet 10 are installed at the bottom of the rear end of the two material bins of the overall frame 1 and are electrically connected with the electrical control cabinet 7.

[0037] In this embodiment, it should be noted that the left and right sides of the discharging cart 2 and the feeding cart 3 are provided with guide positioning wheels.

[0038] When the rear sensor detects that the unloading cart 2 and the loading cart 3 enter the inside of the whole frame 1, a signal occurs to the controller in the electrical control cabinet 7, the controller controls the power supply of the electromagnet 9 to make the electromagnet 9 generate magnetic attraction force, and the unloading cart 2 and the loading cart 3 are adsorbed and fixed, so that the unloading cart 2 and the loading cart 3 are accurately positioned in the bin.

[0039] The above merely describes a preferred specific implementation of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited to this. Any person skilled in the art, according to the technical scheme and the inventive concept of the present application, can make equivalent replacement or change within the technical range disclosed by the present application, which should be covered in the protection scope of the present application.
