Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mold technology, and in particular to a robotic loading and unloading device for a pressure holding machine. Background Technology

[0002] In the current mold technology field, the loading and unloading process of product carriers still relies heavily on manual operation. This not only limits production efficiency but also increases human error and safety hazards. Particularly in the operation of the pressure holding machine, workers need to manually pick up materials one by one from the production line, place the products into the fixture, and start the pressure holding machine. This process is cumbersome and inefficient; each operator can typically only be responsible for one machine, significantly limiting the overall capacity of the production line.

[0003] Furthermore, manual loading and unloading can easily lead to operator fatigue and increase the risk of product stacking. Especially in jigs, due to the limited space, it is extremely inconvenient to pick up and place products, which not only prolongs the operation time, but also easily causes scratches, crushing, and bumping damage to the products during the handling process.

[0007] A material handling fixture includes a fixture body and a material handling component. The material handling component includes a material handling element and a material handling drive element connected to the material handling element. One material handling element is provided on each side of the material handling component. The material handling drive element is used to drive the two material handling elements to move closer or further apart from each other. There is a clamping space between the two material handling elements.

[0008] The loading and unloading drive is connected to one side of the fixture body and to the material picking assembly on the other side. The loading and unloading drive is used to drive the material picking fixture to move between the first operating station and the second operating station.

Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of these terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.

[0031] This utility model provides a robotic loading and unloading device for a pressure holding machine. The device uses a loading and unloading drive to drive a jig for picking up and placing products, avoiding potential safety hazards associated with manual operation, such as hand injuries, and ensuring a safe and reliable operation. Furthermore, the robot's high precision effectively prevents scratches, pressure marks, and deformation of products during handling, guaranteeing product quality. Compared to traditional manual operation, one person can oversee 5 to 10 machines, significantly improving production efficiency. Simultaneously, the introduction of automation reduces manpower requirements, thereby lowering production costs. Example

[0032] This utility model embodiment provides a robotic loading and unloading device for a pressure holding machine, such as... Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the fixture includes a material handling jig 10, which includes a jig body 110 and a material handling assembly 120. The material handling assembly 120 includes a material handling component 1210 and a material handling drive component 1220 connected to the material handling component 1210. Each side of the material handling assembly 120 has a material handling component 1210. The material handling drive component 1220 is used to drive the two material handling components 1210 to move closer or further apart. There is a clamping space 1230 between the two material handling components 1210. The fixture body 110 is connected to the material handling drive component 20 on one side and to the material handling assembly 120 on the other side. The material handling drive component 20 is used to drive the material handling jig 10 to move between the first operating station 30 and the second operating station 40.

[0033] In this way, one person can take care of 5 to 10 machines, which improves production efficiency and reduces production costs; the robot can safely and reliably pick up and place products, while avoiding damage to the products; the equipment is easy to use, can be moved, and is suitable for workstations with limited space, while also being compatible with picking up and placing products of different specifications.

[0034] This equipment possesses a degree of mobility, allowing it to adapt to workstations with limited space, thus improving its applicability and flexibility. Simultaneously, the construction of the material handling assembly 120 allows for adjustment of the distance between the two material handling components 1210, thereby accommodating the handling needs of products with different specifications and increasing the equipment's versatility and application range. The equipment is simple to operate and easy to learn, reducing the skill requirements for operators. Furthermore, the automated process reduces manual intervention, making the entire production process smoother and improving the user experience.

[0035] like Figure 3 and Figure 4Specifically, the fixture body 110 can have a material handling component 120 connected to each end, with the two material handling components 120 symmetrically arranged. This allows the fixture body 110 to immediately place a product to be pressurized onto it via the other material handling component 120 after removing the product after pressure holding, thus improving efficiency. More specifically, the fixture body 110 can have multiple through holes 1110. This reduces the weight of the fixture body 110.

[0036] In this way, by connecting a material handling component 120 to each end of the fixture body 110 and symmetrically arranging them, seamless connection between material handling and unloading is achieved. While one material handling component 120 is removing a product that has completed pressure holding from the pressure holding machine 60, the other material handling component 120 can simultaneously pick up a product to be pressure held from the production line, preparing for the next pressure holding operation. This improves production efficiency and reduces waiting time. The symmetrical arrangement of the material handling components 120 makes the entire loading and unloading process smoother, avoiding production interruptions caused by the operation of a single material handling component 120, and ensuring the continuity and stability of the production line.

[0037] The presence of multiple through holes 1110 on the main body of the fixture 110 reduces its weight, making it more flexible during movement and operation, lowering energy consumption, reducing the load on the robot, and extending the equipment's lifespan. The through holes 1110 also aid in heat dissipation, preventing overheating caused by prolonged operation. Furthermore, reduced material usage lowers manufacturing costs, making the entire device more economical. The through holes 1110 also allow for future functional expansion, such as mounting sensors or lighting equipment, enhancing the device's adaptability and scalability.

[0038] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, more specifically, the loading / unloading drive unit 20 is connected to the middle position of the fixture body 110.

[0039] Understandably, connecting the loading / unloading drive unit 20 to the middle of the fixture body 110 ensures the fixture's balance during movement, reducing swaying or tilting caused by center of gravity shift, thus guaranteeing the accuracy and stability of product handling. The central connection structure makes the fixture's movement trajectory smoother and more efficient during loading and unloading. Whether picking up materials from the production line or placing products into the pressure holding machine 60, the fixture can complete the operation with the shortest path and the most stable posture, further improving production efficiency.

[0040] Connecting the drive unit to the middle of the fixture body 110 disperses the stress on the fixture during movement, preventing equipment damage or deformation caused by stress concentration and extending the equipment's service life. The middle connection structure also facilitates the installation, maintenance, and adjustment of the loading / unloading drive unit 20. Operators can easily access the drive unit to perform necessary inspections and maintenance, ensuring the continuous and stable operation of the equipment.

[0041] like Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown in the figure, the robotic loading and unloading device for a pressure holding machine provided in this embodiment of the present invention further includes a positioning component 50. One end of the positioning component 50 is provided with an opening 510, and the other end is provided with a stop 520. The positioning component 50 is located at the first operating station 30. Specifically, the positioning component 50 may also include a sensing element 530, which is located at the end where the stop 520 is located. More specifically, the positioning component 50 may also include a guide element 540, which is convergent towards the opening 510.

[0042] Thus, an opening 510 at one end of the positioning component 50 facilitates the accurate entry and positioning of the robot fixture at the first operating station 30. This ensures precise docking between the fixture and the pressure holding machine, reducing operational errors caused by positional deviations. A stop 520 at the other end effectively limits the fixture's range of motion, preventing excessive movement that could damage the equipment or affect production efficiency. Adding a sensor 530, such as a photoelectric sensor or proximity switch, to the end with the stop 520 allows for real-time monitoring of the fixture's position. When the fixture reaches the predetermined position, the sensor 530 sends a signal, triggering the robot to execute the next operation, achieving intelligent control and automated processes. This not only improves production efficiency but also enhances the safety and reliability of the equipment.

[0043] The guide member 540 is convergent towards the opening 510, providing a smooth guiding path for the fixture to enter the positioning assembly 50. This helps reduce deviation and wobbling of the fixture during movement, ensuring accurate positioning. Simultaneously, the guide member 540 also acts as a buffer, protecting the fixture and positioning assembly 50 from impact damage. The positioning assembly 50 has a certain degree of versatility, adaptable to different specifications and types of fixtures. This flexibility allows the equipment to easily handle various production tasks, improving equipment utilization and economic efficiency.

[0044] The positioning component 50 has a simple and straightforward structure, making it easy for operators to maintain and adjust. When it is necessary to replace the fixture or adjust the positioning accuracy, operators can easily disassemble and reinstall the positioning component 50, ensuring the continuous and stable operation of the equipment.

[0045] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, more specifically, the second operating station 40 is equipped with a pressure holding machine 60.

[0046] Specifically, the loading / unloading drive unit 20 can be a six-axis robot. More specifically, the material handling drive unit 1220 can be a cylinder.

[0047] One possible workflow of a robotic loading and unloading device for a pressure holding machine provided in this utility model embodiment is as follows: The product flows on the conveyor belt and passes through the positioning component 50 of the first operating station 30. After the sensor 530 senses the arrival of the product, it feeds back to the loading and unloading drive component 20. The loading and unloading drive component 20 drives the picking fixture 10 to clamp the product and place it in the pressure holding machine 60 fixing fixture of the second operating station 40. The cylinder presses the product into place, the pressure holding machine 60 starts, and after completion, the picking fixture 10 takes the material away and places it back on the conveyor belt to flow into the next process.

[0048] In this way, the product flows continuously on the conveyor belt, and when it reaches the first operating station 30, it is accurately captured by the positioning component 50. The opening 510 of the positioning component 50 facilitates the entry of the robot fixture, while the cooperation of the stop 520 and the sensor 530 ensures the precise docking of the fixture and the product. The sensor 530 senses the arrival of the material and feeds back to the loading / unloading drive 20, preparing for the next operation. The loading / unloading drive 20 uses a six-axis robot, which, with its high precision and high flexibility, drives the picking fixture 10 to grip the product from the conveyor belt. The multiple degrees of freedom of the six-axis robot allow the fixture to grip and place the product in the optimal posture, avoiding operational errors caused by positional deviations or improper angles.

[0049] The picking fixture 10 precisely places the product into the fixed fixture of the pressure holding machine 60 at the second operating station 40. At this time, the cylinder, acting as the picking drive component 1220, drives the two picking components 1210 to move closer together, firmly clamping the product in the fixture. After the cylinder presses the product into place, the pressure holding machine 60 starts to perform pressurization and pressure holding processes. After pressure holding is completed, the picking fixture 10 is again driven by the six-axis robot to remove the product from the fixed fixture of the pressure holding machine 60 and accurately place it back onto the conveyor belt to continue flowing into the next process. Throughout the process, the coordinated work of the robot and the cylinder ensures the rapid and accurate picking and placing of products, improving production efficiency.

[0050] Understandably, by integrating components such as the positioning component 50, the six-axis robot, and cylinders, the entire process from product flow to pressure holding processing and then to the return conveyor belt is fully automated, significantly improving production efficiency. The cooperation between the positioning component 50 and the material handling fixture 10 ensures seamless docking and stable clamping between the product and the fixture, avoiding operational errors and product quality issues caused by positional deviations or unstable clamping. The multi-degree-of-freedom settings of the six-axis robot and the flexible adjustment capabilities of the cylinders enable the equipment to easily handle the processing needs of products of different specifications and types, improving the equipment's compatibility and flexibility. The introduction of the sensor 530 enables real-time monitoring and feedback control of incoming materials, ensuring the continuity and stability of the production process. Simultaneously, it also provides possibilities for intelligent upgrades and remote monitoring of the equipment.

[0051] Compared with existing technologies, the robotic loading and unloading equipment for a pressure holding machine provided in this embodiment of the invention uses a loading and unloading drive component 20 to drive the picking fixture 10 to pick up and place products, avoiding potential safety hazards such as hand injuries that may arise from manual operation, and ensuring the safety and reliability of the operation process. Furthermore, the robot's high precision operation effectively avoids the "three injuries" problems of scratches, pressure marks, and deformation during product handling, ensuring product quality. Compared with traditional manual operation, one person can oversee 5 to 10 machines, greatly improving production efficiency. At the same time, the introduction of automation reduces the need for manpower, thereby lowering production costs.

[0052] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model, but the scope of protection of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model should be included within the scope of protection of this utility model.
