[0027] Refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 5 And Figure 6The outer wall of the belt conveyor 15 is fixedly connected with a full load detector 17. When the weight of the workpiece on the belt conveyor 15 reaches a set threshold, the full load detector 17 sends an alarm signal to remind the operator to handle in time. The upper surface of the off-machine pre-adjusting table 2 is fixedly connected with a clamp bottom plate 18. The upper surface of the clamp bottom plate 18 is fixedly connected with a zero point positioner 19. The zero point positioner 19 is used to tightly fix the workpiece in the machining position. One end of the zero point positioner 19 is fixedly connected with a quick-change tray 20. The quick-change tray 20 is internally provided with a blowing pipe 22. Compressed air is blown out through the blowing pipe 22 to blow off the dust and sundries on the surface of the workpiece, so as to ensure the cleanliness of the surface of the workpiece and improve the machining quality.

One side of the outer wall of the blowing pipe 22 is arranged at the edge of the mechanical clamp jaw 23. The full load detector 17 is electrically connected with the control panel 3.
[0028] Working principle: The operator first lays the annular workpiece on the feeding tray 5 one by one, then selects the corresponding product program on the control panel 3, and the control panel 3 automatically adjusts the initial state of each component of the equipment according to the parameter setting of the selected program. When the feeding tray 5 moves under the vision system, the vision detector 7 starts working, and the vision detector 7 takes pictures of the workpieces on the feeding tray 5 at a certain frequency, and transmits the detected workpiece position and posture information to the control panel 3. The control panel 3 generates the grabbing path and action instruction of the mechanical hand 13 according to these information. The electric sliding rail 9 first drives the sliding plate 12 to move quickly laterally, and then moves the mechanical hand 13 to the appropriate position above the feeding tray 5. Then the electric telescopic rod 10 in the sliding plate 12 starts to extend and retract, adjusting the vertical position of the mechanical hand 13 to match the height of the workpiece. The mechanical hand 13 adjusts the opening degree of the clamping jaw according to the shape and size of the workpiece, accurately grabs the workpiece, and carries the workpiece to the pre-adjusting table 2 outside the machine. The workpiece is slowly placed on the mechanical hand jaw 23, which clamps and fixes the workpiece, and then the zero position detector 19 positions the quick-change tray 20 on the clamp bottom plate 18 to fix the workpiece on the clamp bottom plate 18. Then the workpiece can be processed. After processing, the dust and debris on the surface of the workpiece are blown off by the air blowing pipe 22 to ensure the cleanliness of the workpiece surface and improve the processing quality. Then the mechanical hand jaw 23 is loosened. After processing, the mechanical hand 13 adjusts the position and posture of the clamping jaw, then accurately grabs the workpiece, and moves the workpiece to the unloading position above the belt conveyor 15. The belt conveyor 15 starts to quickly and orderly move the workpiece out of the processing area, and then manually takes the workpiece. During the unloading of the workpiece, the workpiece has no detector 16 monitors the unloading of the workpiece in real time, detects whether the workpiece passes, and immediately transmits a signal to the control panel 3 once the workpiece is detected to pass. The control panel 3 records the unloading quantity and time of the workpiece according to the feedback information, and can also adjust the running speed of the belt conveyor 15 according to the need. During the grabbing process of the mechanical hand 13, the detector 11 detects whether the mechanical hand 13 successfully grabs the workpiece. If the workpiece has no detector 11 does not detect the workpiece, it means that the grabbing fails, and the equipment will immediately alarm and stop, and the control panel 3 will display the alarm information to prompt the operator to intervene manually. When the workpieces on the belt conveyor 15 gradually increase, the full load detector 17 monitors the number and weight of the workpieces on the belt conveyor 15 in real time. When the number or weight of the workpieces reaches the set threshold of the full load detector 17, the full load detector 17 sends an alarm signal to remind the operator to handle it in time. Thus the work is completed. The safety door 24 is used for safety protection. After opening, the internal processing environment is suspended, which is convenient for maintenance and improves safety performance.
