Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of logistics and transportation technology, and in particular to an adjustable automatic transfer machine. Background Technology
[0002] Automatic transplanting machines are used in the production of thermos cups. After the semi-finished products obtained by stamping are sent out by conveyor belt, they need to be transferred to other production lines for further processing. This transfer process requires the use of transplanting machines.
[0003] When the transfer machine is transferring, it uses a gripping component to grab the semi-finished cups on the conveyor belt. Then, by rotating the gripping component, it moves the cups to the designated production line. The robotic arm performs the same operation repeatedly, thereby saving labor and improving efficiency.
[0004] When the existing transfer machine uses its gripping components to grasp cups, the cups tend to stack together as they are conveyed by the conveyor belt, with uneven spacing between them. This can easily lead to misidentification by the gripping components, causing the cups to tip over, which is not conducive to production and is inconvenient to use. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation
[0025] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention.
[0026] Example 1
[0027] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 This is the first embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment provides an adjustable automatic transfer machine, including a housing 1, a gripping component 2, a conveyor belt 3, a centering component 4, and an adjustment component 5. The adjustment component 5 includes two rotating gears 503 movably connected inside the housing 1 via rotating shafts. A rotating block 502 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the rotating gears 503, and a rotating plate 501 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the rotating block 502. A transmission belt 507 drives between the two rotating gears 503, and a rotating rod 504 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the rotating shaft on the lower surface of one of the rotating gears 503.
[0028] Specifically, an electric push rod 505 is hinged inside the chassis 1 via a hinged seat. A connecting block 506 is fixedly connected to the output end of the electric push rod 505. The outer surface of the connecting block 506 is movably connected to the end of the rotating rod 504 away from the rotating gear 503. A servo motor 405 is fixedly connected inside the chassis 1. The output end of the servo motor 405 is fixedly connected to one end of the bidirectional lead screw 403. A control module for controlling the servo motor 405 and the electric push rod 505 is provided inside the chassis 1. A sensor 509 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the rotating plate 501. In the initial state, the two rotating plates 501 are at a 90-degree angle. A support plate 508 for supporting the transmission belt 507 is fixedly connected inside the chassis 1.
[0029] Furthermore, the electric push rod 505 drives the rotating rod 504 to rotate via the connecting block 506. The rotating rod 504 drives the rotating gear 503 to rotate, and the transmission belt 507 drives the two rotating gears 503 to rotate synchronously. This enables the rotating plate 501 to rotate via the rotating block 502. In the initial position, the two rotating plates 501 are at a 90-degree angle. After the rotation begins, the lengths of the two rotating plates 501 prevent them from contacting each other, and the conveyor belt 3 moves at a relatively slow speed. When the horizontal rotating plate 501 in the initial state rotates open to allow the first cup to pass, the other rotating plate 501 can rotate to the horizontal position in time to block subsequent cups. Each electric push rod 505 can control the two rotating plates 501 to pass through one cup in sequence. The connection relationship, working principle, and operation sequence between the control module, the gripping component 2, and other components are existing technologies and are common knowledge known to those skilled in the art. They will not be elaborated further here.
[0030] Example 2
[0031] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 This is the second embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment is based on the previous embodiment. The central component 4 includes a bidirectional lead screw 403 that is movably connected to the inside of the housing 1 via a bearing. Two moving blocks 401 are meshed on the outer surface of the bidirectional lead screw 403. A connecting rod 407 is fixedly connected to the side of the moving block 401 near the conveyor belt 3. A pushing block 406 is fixedly connected to the end of the connecting rod 407 away from the moving block 401. A guide plate 402 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the pushing block 406.
[0032] Specifically, a limit rod 404 is inserted inside the movable block 401, and the two ends of the limit rod 404 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the chassis 1. The outer surface of the guide plate 402 is provided with an inclined surface.
[0033] Furthermore, the servo motor 405 controls the rotation of the bidirectional lead screw 403, which drives two moving blocks 401 to move under the action of the limit rod 404. This, in turn, drives the guide plate 402 to move through the connecting rod 407 and the pushing block 406, thereby adapting to the size of the thermos cups in different batches. The change in the spacing between adjacent cups caused by the conveyor belt 3 driving the cups to abut against the guide plate 402 does not affect the positioning of the subsequent gripping component 2.
[0034] Working Principle: During the production of thermos cups, a transfer machine is used to transport the cups. The stamped thermos cups are transported to the transfer machine via conveyor belt 3. When the first thermos cup contacts the sensor on the outer surface of the rotating plate 501, the electric push rod 505 is activated. The electric push rod 505 drives the rotating rod 504 to rotate via the connecting block 506. The rotating rod 504 drives the rotating gear 503 to rotate. When the rotating gear 503 rotates, it drives another rotating gear 503 to rotate via the transmission belt 507. The two rotating gears 503 rotate synchronously, thereby driving the rotating plate 501 to rotate via the rotating block 502. The rotating plate 501, initially positioned laterally, rotates and opens to allow one cup to pass through. After the cup passes, the other rotating plate 501 rotates to a laterally position to block subsequent cups. The control module calculates the contact time of the sensor 509 and the moving speed of the conveyor belt 3 to obtain the distance between the first and second cups. Once the specified spacing is reached, the electric push rod 505 retracts, and the rotating rod 504 drives the rotating gear 503 to rotate, causing the horizontal rotating plate 501 to open and allowing the second cup to pass through. Meanwhile, the rotating plate 501 on the other side rotates to a horizontal position to block subsequent cups, thus controlling the spacing. After the spacing is controlled, the cups pass between two guide plates 402, guided by the inclined surface of the outer surface of the guide plates 402. The servo motor 405 controls the rotation of the bidirectional lead screw 403, which drives two moving blocks 401 to move under the action of the limit rod 404. This, in turn, drives the guide plate 402 to move through the connecting rod 407 and the pushing block 406, thereby adapting to the different sizes of the insulated cups in different batches. Finally, the cups are centered and the spacing is adjusted. The conveyor belt 3 moves the cups to the position of the subsequent gripping component 2, where they are gripped and transferred, thus completing the transfer process in the insulated cup production process.
