Detailed Implementation
[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0021] Furthermore, in this utility model, descriptions involving "first," "second," etc., are for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, a feature defined with "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of those features.
[0022] Please refer to the following: Figures 1 to 4 As shown, one embodiment of this utility model provides a material loading and unloading device 100 capable of detecting material trays, including a robot arm 10 and a shaft seat 40; the robot arm 10 supports a clamping body 20, and the robot arm 10 is used to drive the clamping body 20 to move. A material tray 30 is installed on the top of the clamping body 20, and a magnetic element 201 is provided at the front end of the clamping body 20; a connecting ring 50 is installed on the inner side of the shaft seat 40, and a magnetic focusing element 501 is provided on the inner side of the connecting ring 50. A Hall sensor 401 is also provided on the inner side of the shaft seat 40; the magnetic element 201, the magnetic focusing element 501 and the Hall sensor 401 are vertically aligned in sequence.
[0023] In the loading and unloading device 100 with detectable tray provided in this embodiment, when loading, the product is placed in the tray 30, and the robot arm 10 supports the clamping body 20 and moves the product on the tray 30 into the inner side of the connecting body 50. At this time, the Hall sensor 401 on the bearing 40 senses the magnetism of the magnetic component 201 on the clamping body 20. After the Hall sensor 401 senses the magnetism of the magnetic component 201, the Hall sensor 401 changes its opening and closing state and outputs an electrical signal that the tray 30 has completed loading the product, thereby realizing the identification of whether the product carried by the tray 30 has moved into the inner side of the connecting body 50. To ensure stable sensing between the Hall sensor 401 on the bearing seat 40 and the magnetic component 201 on the clamp body 20, a magnetic focusing component 501 is provided on the connecting body 50. The magnetic focusing component 501 is located between the Hall sensor 401 and the magnetic component 201. The magnetic focusing component 501 can conduct and focus the magnetism of the magnetic component 201, thereby enabling the Hall sensor 401 to stably sense the magnetism of the magnetic component 201 through the magnetic conduction and focusing of the corresponding magnetic focusing component 501. In this invention, the Hall sensor 401 on the bearing seat 40 senses the magnetism of the magnetic component 201 on the clamp body 20 to accurately identify whether the tray 30 is carrying a product and has moved to the inner side of the connecting body 50. This facilitates the feeding sensing of the tray 30 and has the advantages of practicality and high efficiency.
[0024] In some embodiments, a rotatable first guide bead a502, a second guide bead a503, and a third guide bead a504 are distributed on the inner side wall of the interlocking body 50, and a first guide groove a202 adapted to the first guide bead a502 and a second guide groove a203 adapted to the second guide bead a503 and the third guide bead a504 are formed on the outer side wall of the clamping body 20; a rotatable first guide bead b505, a second guide bead b506, and a third guide bead b507 are distributed on the other inner side wall of the interlocking body 50, and a first guide groove b204 adapted to the first guide bead b505 and a second guide groove b205 adapted to the second guide bead b506 and the third guide bead b507 are formed on the other outer side wall of the clamping body 20.
[0025] In specific implementation: When the robotic arm 10 moves the material tray 30 on the clamping body 20 within the connecting body 50 for loading or unloading, during the movement of the clamping body 20, the first guide groove a202 slides along the first guide ball a502, the second guide groove a203 slides along the second guide ball a503 and the third guide ball a504, the first guide groove b204 slides along the first guide ball b505, and the second guide groove b205 slides along the second guide ball b506 and the third guide ball b507. This arrangement effectively guides the clamping body 20 when the robotic arm 10 moves the material tray 30 on the clamping body 20 for loading or unloading.
[0026] In some embodiments, a plurality of buffer bodies 508 are distributed in the middle of the inner side of the interlocking body 50.
[0027] In specific implementation: When the robotic arm 10 moves the material tray 30 on the clamping body 20 to the inside of the connecting body 50 for loading, when the clamping body 20 moves to its limit position inside the connecting body 50, the clamping body 20 will touch the buffer bodies 508 set in the middle of the inner side of the connecting body 50. Each buffer body 508 is used to buffer and prevent the clamping body 20 from impacting the body of the connecting body 50. Through this arrangement, when the clamping body 20 moves to its limit position inside the connecting body 50, each buffer body 508 is used to buffer and prevent the clamping body 20 from impacting the body of the connecting body 50.
[0028] In some embodiments, the buffer 508 is made of an elastic material.
[0029] In practice: the buffer body 508 is made of an elastic material, such as rubber or silicone. This design allows the buffer body 508 to effectively cushion and block the impact of the clamping device 20 on the body of the linkage 50.
[0030] In some embodiments, the magnetic focusing element 501 includes a brass shell 5011 and a stainless steel conductor 5012, with the stainless steel conductor 5012 disposed in the middle of the brass shell 5011.
[0031] In specific implementation: When the magnetic focusing component 501 conducts magnetic focusing to enable the Hall sensor 401 to stably sense the magnetism of the magnetic component 201, the magnetic focusing component 501 conducts magnetic focusing through the stainless steel conductor 5012. The stainless steel conductor 5012 is located in the middle of the brass shell 5011. As a non-magnetic material, the brass shell 5011 can protect the magnetic field of the internal stainless steel conductor 5012 from interference from external magnetic fields, thus enabling the magnetic focusing component 501 to effectively conduct and focus magnetic field. Through this arrangement, the magnetic focusing component 501 can effectively conduct and focus magnetic field, allowing the Hall sensor 401 to stably and effectively sense the magnetism of the magnetic component 201 through the magnetic focusing of the corresponding magnetic focusing component 501.
[0032] In some embodiments, the magnetic element 201 is configured as a magnet.
[0033] In specific implementation: the magnetic component 201 is a magnet, thus possessing magnetism, and the Hall sensor 401 can sense the magnetism of the magnetic component 201. This configuration ensures that the magnetic component 201's magnetism can be effectively sensed by the Hall sensor 401.
[0034] Another embodiment of this utility model provides a dental prosthesis carving machine, including a control motherboard and the aforementioned loading / unloading device 100 with a detectable material tray. The control motherboard is connected to a Hall sensor 401. The dental prosthesis carving machine also includes a transmission component, which is connected to a robotic arm 10 for transmission. The dental prosthesis carving machine receives electrical signals output by the Hall sensor 401 through the control motherboard to determine whether the material tray 30 has been loaded with the product. When the robotic arm 10, supporting the clamp 20, moves the material tray 30 to load or unload, the transmission component drives the robotic arm 10 to move.

It can be understood that the dental prosthesis carving machine provided in this embodiment also includes other structures for realizing the function of the dental prosthesis carving machine, including but not limited to cutting device, dust collection device, etc.
