Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of mechanical equipment technology, and more specifically to a testing device. Background Technology

[0002] In modern manufacturing, product quality control is a crucial step in ensuring product performance, safety, and customer satisfaction. Although some automated testing systems are currently in use, the loading / unloading and testing processes are often designed as relatively independent modules, lacking efficient integration and collaboration mechanisms. Furthermore, manual intervention is required to handle products during the testing process, impacting production efficiency.

[0003] Therefore, this application studies a testing device that can conveniently perform performance testing on products during the loading and unloading process, thereby improving production efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to improve production efficiency by enabling performance testing of products during the loading and unloading process, this application provides a testing device.

[0005] This application provides a testing device that adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A testing device includes a three-axis moving mechanism, a loading area, a unloading area, a conveying mechanism, a tray, a testing mechanism, a clamping component, and a blocking mechanism. The tray is used to load products. The loading area is located upstream of the conveying mechanism, and the unloading area is located downstream of the conveying mechanism. The conveying mechanism is used to convey the tray for loading or unloading. The blocking mechanism is located on the conveying mechanism at a position corresponding to the testing mechanism to block the tray. The testing mechanism includes at least two sets of testing fixtures, respectively located on both sides of the conveying mechanism. The clamping component is used to clamp the products in the tray. The three-axis moving mechanism drives the clamping component to move along the X, Y, and Z axes, so that the clamping component clamps the products at the tray position on the conveying mechanism or clamps the products on the testing mechanism.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, the product to be tested is transported from the upstream loading area to the blocking mechanism via a conveyor mechanism. The blocking mechanism pauses the transport of the pallet, and then the three-axis moving mechanism drives the clamping component to hold the product. The product is first moved to one of the testing fixtures for testing, and then moved to other testing fixtures in sequence for testing. After all tests are completed, the clamping component picks up the product again and puts it back into the pallet, and then the conveyor mechanism continues to transport it to the downstream unloading area. Product testing is carried out between the loading and unloading processes, which improves production efficiency.

[0008] Optionally, the conveying mechanism includes two conveyor belts spaced apart, with the two ends of the tray placed on the two conveyor belts on both sides, and the blocking mechanism disposed between the two conveyor belts.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the pallet is limited by the blocking mechanism, ensuring that the pallet stays in the same position each time, so that the clamping parts can pick up and put down products more accurately.

[0010] Optionally, the blocking mechanism includes a blocking cylinder and a blocking block rotatably connected to the blocking cylinder. When the tray is conveyed by the conveying mechanism and the blocking block is pushed to rotate and abut against one side of the tray, the tray is confined to the blocking mechanism. When the tray rises away from the blocking mechanism, the blocking block resets by its own weight.

[0011] Optionally, the blocking mechanism also includes a lifting cylinder that drives the pallet to move vertically. A locating pin is mounted on the top of the lifting cylinder, and the lifting cylinder drives the locating pin to insert upward into the pallet and lift the pallet.

[0012] Optionally, the three-axis moving mechanism further includes an X-axis assembly, a Y-axis assembly, and a Z-axis assembly. The Y-axis assembly includes a Y-axis slide rail and a belt module. The X-axis assembly is mounted on the belt module and cooperates with the Y-axis slide rail. The belt module drives the X-axis assembly to move along the Y-axis slide rail.

[0013] Optionally, the X-axis assembly includes an X-axis slide rail and a linear module, the Z-axis assembly is mounted on the linear module and cooperates with the X-axis slide rail, and the linear module drives the Z-axis assembly to move along the X-axis slide rail.

[0014] Optionally, the Z-axis assembly includes a Z-axis drive, the clamping member is mounted on the output end of the Z-axis drive, and the Z-axis drive drives the clamping member to move in the vertical direction.

[0015] Optionally, it also includes a slide cylinder, which is installed at the output end of the Z-axis drive component, and the slide cylinder drives the clamping component to clamp the product.

[0016] Optionally, it also includes a guide rail, and the testing mechanism is provided with a guide block that cooperates with the guide rail, the guide block sliding along the guide rail.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the test fixture can be moved to the corresponding position along the guide rail.

[0018] In summary, this application includes the following beneficial technical effects: the product to be tested is transported from the upstream loading area to the blocking mechanism via a conveying mechanism, where the pallet containing the product is transported to the blocking mechanism. The blocking mechanism pauses the transport of the pallet, and then a three-axis moving mechanism drives the clamping component to hold the product. The product is first moved to one of the testing fixtures for testing, and after testing, it is moved to other testing fixtures in sequence for testing. After all tests are completed, the clamping component picks up the product again and puts it back into the pallet, and then the conveying mechanism continues to transport it to the downstream unloading area. Product testing is carried out between the loading and unloading processes, thereby improving production efficiency. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0028] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-6 This application will be described in further detail.

[0029] This application discloses a testing apparatus. (Refer to...) Figure 1 The testing device includes a three-axis moving mechanism 1, a loading area, a unloading area, a conveying mechanism 2, a tray 3, a testing mechanism 4, and a clamping component 5. The tray 3 is used to load products. The loading area is located on the upstream side of the conveying mechanism 2, and the unloading area is located on the downstream side of the conveying mechanism 2. Between the loading area and the unloading area, the conveying mechanism 2 can also go through several processes, so that only one loading area, one unloading area, and one conveying mechanism 2 are needed to complete the process, without frequent transfers, making the equipment more integrated and improving production efficiency.

[0030] The conveying mechanism 2 is used to load or unload the pallet 3. The testing mechanism 4 includes at least two sets of testing fixtures. In this embodiment, two testing fixtures are provided, one on each side of the width direction of the conveying mechanism 2. The clamping member 5 is used to clamp the products in the pallet 3. The three-axis moving mechanism 1 drives the clamping member 5 to move along the X-axis, Y-axis and Z-axis directions, so that the clamping member 5 clamps the products at the position of the pallet 3 of the conveying mechanism 2 or clamps the products on the testing mechanism 4.

[0031] The three-axis moving mechanism 1 includes an X-axis assembly 11, a Y-axis assembly 12, and a Z-axis assembly 13 that drive the clamping member 5 to move along the X-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis directions, respectively. The X-axis assembly 11 drives the clamping member 5 to reciprocate along the conveying direction of the conveying mechanism 2. That is, in this embodiment, the conveying mechanism 2 includes a loading conveying assembly 21 and a unloading conveying assembly 22. The loading conveying assembly 21 and the unloading conveying assembly 22 are respectively set as upper and lower layers. The tray 3 is conveyed by the upper loading conveying assembly 21 to the testing mechanism 4 for testing. After the test is completed, it is conveyed to the lower layer through an external device and then conveyed back to the unloading area by the lower unloading conveying assembly 22 in the opposite direction to the loading conveying assembly 21. The Y-axis assembly 12 drives the clamping member 5 to reciprocate along the conveying direction perpendicular to the conveying mechanism 2. In cooperation with the X-axis, it conveys the product to the upper part corresponding to the test fixture. Then, the Z-axis assembly 13 drives the clamping member 5 to move downward in the vertical direction, placing the product on the test fixture for relevant testing. This allows product testing to be carried out between the loading and unloading processes, improving production efficiency.

[0032] Reference Figure 2 In some embodiments, the Y-axis assembly 12 includes a Y-axis slide rail 121 and a belt module 122. The X-axis assembly 11 is mounted on the belt module 122 and cooperates with the Y-axis slide rail 121. The X-axis assembly 11 is limited to slide by the Y-axis slide rail 121, so that the belt module 122 drives the X-axis assembly 11 to move along the Y-axis slide rail 121 from the position of the tray 3 to the position of the corresponding test fixture in the Y-axis direction.

[0033] In some embodiments, the X-axis assembly 11 includes an X-axis slide rail 111 and a linear module 112. The Z-axis assembly 13 is mounted on the linear module 112 and cooperates with the X-axis slide rail 111. The linear module 112 drives the Z-axis assembly 13 to move along the X-axis slide rail 111. The X-axis slide rail 111 limits the movement direction of the Z-axis assembly 13. At the same time, the Y-axis assembly 12 drives the X-axis assembly 11 and the Z-axis assembly 13 to move simultaneously. The X-axis assembly 11 drives the Z-axis assembly 13 to move to the corresponding position of the test fixture, and then the Z-axis assembly 13 moves the product vertically to the test fixture.

[0034] In some embodiments, the Z-axis assembly 13 includes a Z-axis drive 131, which is a Z-axis electric cylinder. The clamping member 5 is installed at the output end of the Z-axis drive 131, and the Z-axis drive 131 drives the clamping member 5 to move in the vertical direction.

[0035] In some embodiments, the clamping member 5 includes a slide cylinder 51 and a finger gripper 52. The slide cylinder 51 is mounted on the output end of the Z-axis drive member 131, driving the slide cylinder 51 to move vertically. The slide cylinder 51 drives the finger gripper 52 to clamp the product. After the finger gripper 52 clamps the product on the tray 3, it moves to the corresponding position of the test fixture via the X-axis assembly 11 and the Y-axis assembly 12. The Z-axis drive member 131 moves the slide cylinder 51 to the corresponding position of the product, and then the slide cylinder 51 causes the finger gripper 52 to be placed into the test fixture.

[0036] Reference Figure 3 In some embodiments, the conveying mechanism 2 includes two conveyor belts 201 spaced apart, meaning the loading conveying mechanism 2 and the unloading conveying mechanism 2 have the same structure but opposite conveying directions. The pallet 3 is placed on both ends of the conveyor belts 201 on both sides, and the pallet 3 has several placement slots corresponding to the products, so that the products can be placed stably.

[0037] The testing device also includes a blocking mechanism 7, which is positioned on the conveying mechanism 2 corresponding to the testing mechanism 4, and is used to block the tray 3. The blocking mechanism 7 is positioned between the two conveyor belts 201 and is used to block and limit the tray 3.

[0038] Reference Figure 4 In some embodiments, the blocking mechanism 7 includes a blocking cylinder 71 and a blocking block 72 rotatably connected to the blocking cylinder 71. When the pallet 3 is conveyed by the conveying mechanism 2 and the blocking block 72 is pushed to rotate and abut against one side of the pallet 3, the pallet 3 is limited to the blocking mechanism 7. At this time, the blocking mechanism 7 blocks and limits the position of the pallet 3, so that the pallet 3 can stay in the same position each time. When the pallet 3 rises away from the blocking mechanism 7, the blocking block 72 resets by its own weight. At this time, when the pallet 3 descends to the conveyor belt 201, since there is no front-end pushing and abutting, the blocking block 72 will not block the pallet 3, and the conveyor belt 201 can continue to convey the pallet 3 forward.

[0039] In some embodiments, the blocking mechanism 7 includes a lifting cylinder that drives the pallet 3 to move vertically. A lifting plate 73 is mounted on the top of the lifting cylinder, and a positioning pin 74 is mounted on the lifting plate 73. The lifting cylinder drives the positioning pin 74 to insert upward into the pallet 3 and lift the pallet 3. At this time, the pallet 3 is disengaged from the conveyor belt 201, and the abutment blocking block 72 is also released. The blocking block 72 rotates and resets by its own weight, and the pallet 3 stops conveying. The products on the pallet 3 can be clamped to different inspection stations for inspection.

[0040] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 6In some embodiments, the testing device further includes a guide rail 8, and a guide block 9 that cooperates with the guide rail 8 is provided on the testing mechanism 4. The guide block 9 slides along the guide rail 8. Through the cooperation between the guide rail 8 and the guide block 9, the testing mechanism 4 can accurately move to the corresponding position to test the product.

[0041] The implementation principle of a testing device according to an embodiment of this application is as follows: the product to be tested is conveyed from the upstream loading area to the blocking mechanism 7 via the conveying mechanism 2, and the pallet 3 containing the product is conveyed to the blocking mechanism 7. The blocking mechanism 7 pauses the conveying of the pallet 3. Then, the three-axis moving mechanism 1 drives the clamping member 5 to clamp the product and move it to one of the testing fixtures. After the test is completed, the product is moved to other testing mechanisms 4 in sequence for testing. After all tests are completed, the clamping member 5 clamps the product again and puts it back into the pallet 3. Then, the conveying mechanism 2 continues to convey it to the downstream unloading area. Product testing is carried out between the loading and unloading processes, which improves production efficiency.
