[0004] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this utility model provides an ejector suction product mechanism and an automated handling device, which can improve the utilization rate of automated production lines, reduce labor, and lower labor costs.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides an ejector and suction product mechanism for positioning a product positioning fixture for handling. It includes a turnover fixture positioning mechanism and a material handling robot gripper. The product positioning fixture has a body and a bottom film located at the bottom of the body. The turnover fixture positioning mechanism is used to place and position the product positioning fixture. The material handling robot gripper is used to grip and transport the product positioning fixture placed on the turnover fixture positioning mechanism. The material handling robot gripper includes a vacuum suction plate and multiple suction cups. When the material handling robot gripper grips the product positioning fixture, the vacuum suction plate is adsorbed onto the upper surface of the body, and the multiple suction cups are adsorbed onto the bottom film.

[0006] Furthermore, the material handling robot gripper also includes grippers that hold the product positioning gripper on both sides.

[0007] Furthermore, the main body is provided with a plurality of clearance holes, and each suction cup passes through one of the clearance holes to be adsorbed onto the bottom film.

[0024] To facilitate understanding of this utility model, a more complete description will be given below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The drawings illustrate preferred embodiments of this utility model. However, this utility model can be implemented in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided to provide a more thorough and complete understanding of the disclosure of this utility model.

[0025] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. The terminology used in this specification is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention. In this invention, "each" includes one or more quantities.

[0026] Please refer to the following: Figures 1 to 8 The preferred embodiment of this utility model has an ejector-and-pickup product mechanism for positioning the product positioning fixture 10 for transport. The product positioning fixture 10 has a body 11 and a bottom film 12 disposed at the bottom of the body 11. The bottom film 12 is used to protect the body 11.

[0027] The ejection and suction product mechanism includes a turnover fixture positioning mechanism 20 and a picking robot gripper 30. The turnover fixture positioning mechanism 20 is used to place and position the product positioning fixture 10; the picking robot gripper 30 is used to grip and transport the product positioning fixture 10 placed on the turnover fixture positioning mechanism 20. The picking robot gripper 30 includes a vacuum suction plate 31 and multiple suction cups 32. When the picking robot gripper 30 grips the product positioning fixture 10, the vacuum suction plate 31 is adsorbed on the upper surface of the body 11, and the multiple suction cups 32 are adsorbed on the bottom film 12.

[0028] In existing technologies, when the turnover fixture positioning mechanism 20 positions the product positioning fixture 10, the bottom film 12 comes into contact with the positioning surface. When the bottom film 12 adheres to the positioning surface for various reasons, it becomes impossible to stably move the product positioning mechanism 10 as a whole. The ejection and suction product mechanism of this invention uses a suction cup 32 on the gripper 30 of the picking robot to directly hold the bottom film 12, preventing it from being pulled on the turnover fixture positioning mechanism 20. This ensures stable and reliable handling, reduces the need for manual troubleshooting, improves the utilization rate of automated production lines, reduces labor costs, and lowers labor costs.

[0029] Furthermore, the material handling robot gripper 30 also includes grippers 33 that clamp on both sides of the product positioning gripper 10. Each side of the product positioning gripper 10 is provided with a lug 13, and there are two grippers 33, which are respectively clamped on the lug 13.

[0030] In this embodiment, there are four suction cups 32, arranged in two groups on both sides of the vacuum suction plate 31. The vacuum suction plate 31 is provided with clearance grooves, and the suction cups 32 are embedded in the clearance grooves.

[0031] Furthermore, the product positioning fixture 10 has multiple clearance holes 110 on its body 11, and each suction cup 32 passes through one clearance hole 110 to adhere to the bottom film 12. When the vacuum suction plate 31 adsorbs the product positioning fixture 10, the suction cup 32 simultaneously adsorbs the bottom film 12.

[0032] Furthermore, the vacuum suction plate 31 is provided with a plurality of first positioning protrusions 311, and the product positioning fixture 10 is provided with a plurality of first positioning holes 101 corresponding one-to-one with the first positioning protrusions 311. When the picking robot gripper 30 approaches the product positioning fixture 10, the first positioning protrusions 311 on the vacuum suction plate 31 are inserted into the first positioning holes 101 so that the picking robot gripper 30 is aligned with the product positioning fixture 10.

[0033] Furthermore, the turnover fixture positioning mechanism 20 includes a positioning platform 21, on which a plurality of second positioning protrusions 211 are provided, and the product positioning fixture 10 is provided with a plurality of second positioning holes 102 corresponding one-to-one with the second positioning protrusions 211. The turnover fixture positioning mechanism 20 positions the product positioning fixture 10 through the second positioning protrusions 211.

[0034] In this embodiment, there are four second positioning holes 102 and four second positioning protrusions 211, wherein the second positioning holes 102 are distributed at the four corners of the product positioning fixture 10.

[0035] Furthermore, the material handling robot gripper 30 has a base 34, and a vacuum suction plate 31 is mounted on the base 34 via an elastic connector 35. The vacuum suction plate 31 can move closer to or further away from the base 34. When the material handling robot gripper 30 adsorbs the product positioning fixture 10 via the vacuum suction plate 31, since the suction cup 32 adsorbs the bottom film 12 with a certain adsorption stroke, the elastic connector 35 allows the product positioning fixture 10 and the vacuum suction plate 31 to have a certain clearance position, avoiding squeezing the product positioning fixture 10 and the vacuum suction plate 31. At the same time, it also allows the vacuum suction plate 31 to fit more closely with the product positioning fixture 10.

[0036] The turnover fixture positioning mechanism 20 also includes a lifting structure 22, which is used to lift the product positioning fixture 10 away from the positioning platform 21. The picking robot gripper 30 can lift the product positioning fixture 10 above the second positioning protrusion 211 by the lifting structure 22 and then move the product positioning fixture 10 upward as a whole for transportation. Through the cooperation of the lifting structure 22 and the elastic connector 35, the product positioning fixture 10 can be prevented from shaking during the gripping process, making the gripping process more stable, and at the same time further preventing the bottom film 12 from being pulled on the turnover fixture positioning mechanism 20.

[0037] Furthermore, the lifting structure 22 includes a lifting cylinder 221 and a lifting platform 222 fixed to one end of the lifting cylinder 221. The lifting platform 222 is provided with multiple support columns 223, and the positioning platform 21 is provided with multiple through holes 213 corresponding to the support columns 223. The end of each support column 223 furthest from the lifting platform 222 is inserted into a through hole 213. Specifically, in this embodiment, the multiple support columns 22 are arranged in an array on the lifting platform 222, and the top surfaces of the multiple support columns 22 are in the same plane.

[0038] There are multiple elastic connectors 35, each of which includes a guide post and a spring sleeved on the guide post. Specifically, in this embodiment, there are four elastic connectors 35, which are respectively located at the four corners of the lifting platform 222.

[0039] The surface of the gripper 33 that contacts the product positioning fixture 10 is an inclined surface. When the gripper 33 clamps the product positioning fixture 10 in the middle, it will cause the product positioning fixture 10 to move upward and stick to the vacuum suction plate 31, so that the vacuum suction plate 31 can hold the product.

[0040] The product ejection and suction mechanism of this utility model uses a four-axis material handling robot gripper 30 to grip the product positioning fixture 10. At the same time, the vacuum suction plate 31 and suction cup 32 hold the body 11 and bottom film 12 of the product positioning fixture 10. Then, the lifting structure 22 ejects the product positioning fixture 12 out of the turnover fixture positioning mechanism 20, preventing the bottom film 12 or the entire product positioning fixture 12 from remaining on the positioning platform 21 of the turnover fixture positioning mechanism 20.

[0041] This utility model also relates to an automated handling device, including the aforementioned ejector and suction product mechanism.

[0042] The embodiments described above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model, and while the descriptions are specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of the present utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of the present utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model patent should be determined by the appended claims.
