[0074] In the embodiments of the present application, the same reference signs represent the same parts, and for the sake of brevity, detailed description of the same parts is omitted in different embodiments.
[0075] As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 The present application provides a basket loading system, which can adjust the posture of sheet products, so as to grasp the products and place them in the basket 200, thereby improving the efficiency of the basket loading process and eliminating the defect that the products are prone to fall during the basket loading process. The basket loading system comprises a base 20, a material distribution unit 3, a material receiving unit, a material placing unit 4 and a basket loading station 5. The material receiving unit, the material placing unit 4 and the basket loading station 5 are all arranged on the base 20. The material distribution unit 3 is used to transfer the materials 100 to the material receiving unit; the basket loading station 5 is provided with a basket 200, and the material placing unit 4 is movable between the material receiving unit and the basket loading station 5, and is used to pick up the materials 100 on the material receiving unit and transfer them to the basket 200.
[0076] In the present application, referring to 1 and Figure 2The basket loading system further comprises a conveying unit 6, the material distributing unit 3 comprises a top frame 31 and a material distributing manipulator 32 installed on the top frame 31, the top frame 31 is fixedly arranged in the factory building and located above the base 20, and is used for installing the material distributing manipulator 32, the conveying unit 6 receives the material 100 processed and formed by the punch press and conveys the material 100 to below the material distributing manipulator 32, the material distributing manipulator 32 is used for picking up the material 100 on the conveying unit 6 and can selectively place the material 100 on the receiving unit or on an inspection platform (not shown in the figure) for inspection. Further, a position acquisition unit is arranged upstream of the material distributing manipulator 32, and the basket loading system further comprises a control unit, which is in communication connection with the position acquisition unit and the material distributing unit 3. The position acquisition unit is used for acquiring the position of the material 100 on the conveying unit 6 and transmitting the position information to the material distributing manipulator 32 through the control unit, so that the material distributing manipulator 32 picks up according to the position information.
[0077] Exemplarily, the material distributing manipulator 32 is a spider manipulator, and the bottom of the spider manipulator has a suction cup for adsorbing the sheet material 100. The position acquisition unit is a CCD (Charge Coupled Device) vision positioning camera system.
[0078] The conveying unit 6 comprises a conveying belt, which is exemplarily in a Z shape and comprises a first horizontal belt, an inclined unloading belt and a second horizontal belt connected in sequence. The first horizontal belt is used for receiving the material 100 unloaded from the punch press, the inclined unloading belt is used for guiding the material 100 to the second horizontal belt, and the second horizontal belt is horizontally arranged on the base 20. The position acquisition unit is arranged above the second horizontal belt, and the material distributing manipulator 32 is used for picking up the material 100 on the second horizontal belt and selectively placing it on the receiving unit or the inspection platform.
[0079] As shown in FIG. 1, Figure 3 the receiving unit provided by the embodiment comprises a receiving mechanism 1. In combination with Figure 4 and Figure 5 , the receiving mechanism 1 comprises a rack 11, a first driving mechanism 12 and a rotating carrier 13. The rack 11 is arranged on the base 20, and the housing of the first driving mechanism 12 is arranged on the rack 11. The rotating carrier 13 is connected to the output end of the first driving mechanism 12, and the rotating carrier 13 can rotate around a first direction under the driving of the first driving mechanism 12, the first direction is arranged at an angle with the vertical direction; the rotating carrier 13 is provided with a fixed region 130; a part of the material 100 to be transported is fixed to the fixed region 130, and another part of the material 100 protrudes out of the fixed region 130.
[0080] The material 100 to be transferred and loaded into the basket is placed on the rotating carrier 13 of the receiving unit, and a part of the material 100 is fixed in the fixed area 130 of the rotating carrier 13, and the other part is suspended relative to the fixed area 130. When the material 100 on the rotating carrier 13 is clamped by the placing unit 4, the first driving mechanism 12 drives the rotating carrier 13 to rotate in the first direction, so that the material 100 placed on the fixed area 130 changes the posture until the end of the material 100 suspended outside the fixed area 130 is rotated to a position suitable for clamping, such as a vertical state, to facilitate clamping by the placing unit 4. In this receiving unit, since the material 100 is partially suspended outside the fixed area 130, when the material 100 is clamped, the part of the material 100 suspended outside the fixed area 130 can be clamped, which provides an operation space for the clamping action, reduces the clamping difficulty, and eliminates the defect that the product is easy to fall during the loading process. Especially for the material 100 in the form of thin sheets, the posture of the material 100 in the form of thin sheets can be adjusted by the receiving unit to grasp the product and then place it in the basket 200, thereby improving the efficiency of the loading process.
[0081] In this embodiment, the loading system is used to detect the material 100 in the form of thin sheets, such as positive current collecting plates and negative current collecting plates of batteries, and load them. After being processed and formed by a punch, the material 100 in the form of thin sheets is discharged to the loading system.
[0082] Specifically, in this embodiment, the first direction is the horizontal direction, and the first driving mechanism 12 is used to drive the rotating carrier 13 to rotate in the horizontal direction, so that the material 100 on the rotating carrier 13 can be switched from the horizontal placement state to the vertical state after being rotated by 90 degrees.
[0083] Exemplarily, the first driving mechanism 12 is a rotary cylinder or a rotary motor.
[0084] As shown in Figure 4 and Figure 5 , the receiving unit further comprises a fixed carrier 14 arranged on the rack 11; the fixed area 130 is provided with a first groove 131, and the fixed carrier 14 is provided with a second groove 141; the rotating carrier 13 reciprocally switches between the first state and the second state. When the rotating carrier 13 is in the first state, the first groove 131 and the second groove 141 are combined to form a profiling groove 10 for clamping the material 100; when the rotating carrier 13 is switched from the first state to the second state, the first groove 131 is away from the second groove 141, so that the material 100 fixed in the first groove 131 is switched from the horizontal state to the vertical state.
[0085] Further, referring to Figure 3The receiving mechanism 1 further comprises a second driving mechanism 2. The second driving mechanism 2 is installed on the base 20 and is driven in the first direction. The output end of the second driving mechanism 2 is in transmission connection with the rack 11, and the second driving mechanism 2 is used to drive the rack 11 to reciprocate between the distributing unit 3 and the placing unit 4. The third position is set when the receiving mechanism 1 moves to below the distributing mechanical arm 32 of the distributing unit 3, the distributing mechanical arm 32 is used to place the material 100 on the receiving mechanism 1 at the third position, and the fourth position is set when the receiving mechanism 1 moves to below the placing unit 4, the placing unit 4 is used to pick up the material 100 on the receiving mechanism 1 at the fourth position to transport into the basket 200 to complete the basketing of the material 100.
[0086] As shown in Figure 4 and Figure 5 , the receiving mechanism 1 further comprises a vacuum adsorption mechanism 15, which is exemplarily a vacuum generator. In combination with Figure 6 and Figure 7 , the rotating carrier 13 is provided with a vacuum adsorption cavity 132, the bottom wall of the first groove 131 is provided with an adsorption hole 133, and the vacuum adsorption cavity 132 communicates with the first groove 131 through the adsorption hole 133; the vacuum adsorption mechanism 15 is arranged on the rotating carrier 13 and communicates with the vacuum adsorption cavity 132, and is used to generate negative pressure in the vacuum adsorption cavity 132.
[0087] When the receiving mechanism 1 is at the third position for receiving the material 100, the rotating carrier 13 is at the first state as shown in Figure 4 , the first groove 131 and the second groove 141 are spliced to form a profiling groove 10 for clamping the material 100. Specifically, the material 100 is in a round shape, the first groove 131 and the second groove 141 are spliced to form a circular profiling groove 10 for receiving and clamping the material 100, the bottom wall of the first groove 131 communicates with the vacuum adsorption cavity 132 through the adsorption hole 133, and is used to adsorb the material 100 clamped in the first groove 131, thereby improving the stability of the material 100. When the receiving mechanism 1 moves to below the placing unit 4 so that the placing unit 4 picks up the material 100 on the receiving mechanism 1, the rotating carrier 13 is at the second state when it moves relative to the fixed carrier 14 under the driving of the first driving mechanism 12. Specifically to Figure 6 , the rotating carrier 13 rotates counterclockwise so that the first groove 131 moves away from the second groove 141. At this time, due to the existence of the vacuum adsorption cavity 132, the material 100 in the first groove 131 is stably kept at a position in contact with the bottom wall of the first groove 131, and as the first groove 131 moves away from the second groove 141, after the rotating carrier 13 rotates 90 degrees around the horizontal direction, the material 100 in a round shape is in a vertical state, and the part originally placed in the second groove 141 is suspended relative to the second rotating carrier 13, so as to be clamped by the placing unit 4. As shown in Figure 5The diagram shows the receiving unit when the material handling unit 4 picks up material 100.
[0088] It is understandable that when the material placement unit 4 holds the material 100, the vacuum adsorption mechanism 15 stops generating negative pressure and releases the adsorption effect on the material 100. When the material 100 is placed horizontally in the first groove 131, the vacuum adsorption mechanism 15 generates negative pressure so that the material 100 is adsorbed and fixed in the first groove 131.
[0089] For example, the receiving mechanism 1 has multiple contour grooves 10, which can hold multiple materials 100, such as 8, 9, 10, etc., without limitation.
[0090] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, two receiving units are spaced apart along the second direction, both used to receive material 100 transferred by the dispensing robot 32. The two receiving units can alternately move to the third and fourth positions to improve the cycle time of material transfer 100. Of course, in other embodiments, one receiving unit or more than two receiving units can also be provided. The first direction, the second direction, and the vertical direction are mutually perpendicular, with the vertical direction defined as the third direction, and the first direction and the second direction being mutually perpendicular horizontal directions.
[0091] For example, the second drive mechanism 2 is a linear module.
[0092] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the rotating frame 13 has a clearance surface 134 on the side facing the fixed frame 14. When the rotating frame 13 is in the first state, the clearance surface 134 gradually moves away from the fixed frame 14 from top to bottom. During the process of the rotating frame 13 rotating from the first state to the second state, there is always a gap between the clearance surface 134 and the fixed frame 14 to avoid interference between the rotating frame 13 and the fixed frame 14 during the rotation.
[0093] like Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the rack 11 comprises a bottom plate 111, and a first support plate 112, a second support plate 113 and a third support plate 114 arranged on the bottom plate 111. The first support plate 112 is arranged in a spaced manner with the second support plate 113, and the third support plate 114 is located between the first support plate 112 and the second support plate 113; the first driving mechanism 12 is arranged on the first support plate 112; the second support plate 113 is provided with a rotating support 16, and the rotating carrier 13 is provided with a rotating shaft 17 at an end away from the first driving mechanism 12, the rotating shaft 17 is rotatably arranged in the rotating support 16; the fixed carrier 14 is arranged on the third support plate 114. The first support plate 112 can provide a mounting basis for the first driving mechanism 12; the second support plate 113 can provide support for the rotation of the rotating carrier 13. Exemplarily, the rotating support 16 is a bearing seat, and the rotating shaft 17 on the rotating carrier 13 is rotatably connected to the rotating support 16 through the bearing. The third support plate 114 can provide support for the fixed carrier 14, so that the fixed carrier 14 is substantially at the same height as the rotating carrier 13. Further, a reinforcing plate is arranged between the first support plate 112 and the bottom plate 111, and between the second support plate 113 and the bottom plate 111.
[0094] As shown in Figure 8 and Figure 9 , the material placing unit 4 comprises a bracket mechanism 41, a third driving mechanism 42, a fourth driving mechanism 43, a first clamping mechanism 44, a fifth driving mechanism 45, a sixth driving mechanism 46 and a second clamping mechanism 47. The bottom end of the bracket mechanism 41 is fixedly arranged on the base 20 to provide a mounting basis for other mechanisms.
[0095] The bracket mechanism 41 is in the shape of a door, which spans the material placing unit and the basket loading station 5 along the second direction. The third driving mechanism 42 is mounted on the bracket mechanism 41. The fourth driving mechanism 43 is connected to the output end of the third driving mechanism 42, and is used to move along the second direction under the driving of the third driving mechanism 42. The first clamping mechanism 44 is used to clamp or release the material 100, and is connected to the output end of the fourth driving mechanism 43 to move along the vertical direction under the driving of the fourth driving mechanism 43. The fifth driving mechanism 45 is mounted on the bracket mechanism 41, and is arranged on opposite sides of the bracket mechanism 41 along the first direction and is driven along the second direction. The sixth driving mechanism 46 is connected to the output end of the fifth driving mechanism 45, and is used to move along the second direction under the driving of the fifth driving mechanism 45.
