Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mechanical engineering technology, specifically to a milling cutter unpacking and traying device. Background Technology
[0002] The main purpose of a milling cutter unpacking and traying equipment is to automate the unpacking and traying process of milling cutters. Through automation, the efficiency of unpacking and traying milling cutters can be significantly improved, reducing manual operation time and thus accelerating the overall production process. Automation can reduce human error and ensure the accuracy and consistency of milling cutters. This equipment is usually compact in design, saving factory space and reducing the need for manual space. The equipment can usually adapt to milling cutter packaging boxes and trays of different sizes and specifications, and has good flexibility. The milling cutter unpacking and traying equipment is mainly used to improve the automation level of the milling cutter processing link, thereby improving production efficiency, reducing costs, and ensuring product quality.
[0003] Chinese Patent Publication No. CN209769964U, entitled "Plate-Loading Device," includes: a baffle with openings at both ends, used to surround food during the pouring process; and a driving component, directly or indirectly connected to the baffle, used to drive the baffle closer to or away from the plate. By using the driving component to move the baffle closer to or away from the plate, it ensures that fried food does not pop out of the plate, helping to gather the food in the center and then gradually spread it outwards. Furthermore, the baffle, positioned further away from the plate, provides sufficient space, preventing the plate from scraping against the lower edge of the baffle and causing food to scatter or be damaged when the plate is removed after loading. This effectively improves the efficiency and quality of the loading process.
[0004] The shortcomings of the above solution are as follows: Although the above solution can improve the efficiency of the turntable, it is easy to cause vibration and damage to the components during the conveying process. During the conveying process, the components may be damaged due to the impact of the device vibration. The non-automated process increases manual intervention and labor intensity. The non-automated process has low flexibility when adjusting production plans and is difficult to respond quickly to technical problems caused by market changes. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a milling cutter unpacking and traying device to solve the technical problems in the prior art that the components are prone to vibration and damage during the conveying process. During the conveying process, the components may be damaged due to the impact of the device vibration. The non-automated process increases manual intervention and labor intensity. The non-automated process has low flexibility when adjusting production plans and is difficult to respond quickly to market changes.
[0006] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model can be achieved through the following technical solution:
[0007] A milling cutter unpacking and traying device, comprising a frame;
[0008] The frame is equipped with a turntable assembly, both ends of which are connected to a feeding slide. A receiving box is provided at the end of the feeding slide away from the turntable assembly. A box-pulling robot is connected to the side of the receiving box. A vibratory feeder is connected to the frame, and a rotating receiving plate is provided on the feeding side of the vibratory feeder.
[0009] The frame is connected to a tray conveyor line, the end of which is connected to a tray swinging device. A tray swinging mechanism is slidably connected to the tray conveyor line. The frame is also connected to a box-pulling robot and a tray-unloading robot.
[0010] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the feeding chute is a smooth inclined chute.
[0011] As a further embodiment of this utility model: a product loading robot is connected to the frame, and the product loading robot is located on one side of the rotating receiving tray.
[0012] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the product loading robot is a Cartesian coordinate robot.
[0013] As a further embodiment of this utility model: a tray translation servo module is connected to the tray conveyor line.
[0014] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the material tray conveyor line is provided with detection photoelectric sensors at equal intervals.
[0015] As a further embodiment of this utility model: a stop mechanism is connected to the end of the material tray conveyor line, and the detection photoelectric sensor is configured in conjunction with the stop mechanism.
[0016] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the vibratory feeder is a circular vibratory feeder.
[0017] As a further embodiment of this utility model: an empty material tray destacking device is connected to the material tray conveyor line.
[0018] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the empty material tray destacking is a push-rod type destacking machine.
[0019] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0020] 1. This utility model uses a vibratory feeder to smoothly feed packaging boxes into a feeding chute. One end of the feeding chute is connected to a receiving box. The packaging box moves along the feeding chute to the receiving box, where a robotic arm on the side of the receiving box removes a milling cutter from the box. The removed milling cutter is placed in the receiving box for further processing. A rotating receiving plate is provided on one side of the vibratory feeder, and a robotic arm is located on the side of the rotating receiving plate to remove the milling cutter from the receiving box. The robotic arm's operation is more precise and consistent than manual operation, reducing errors caused by improper manual operation. Automated robotic arms can replace manual labor in dangerous or repetitive tasks, thereby reducing the risk of worker injury.
[0021] 2. The material tray conveyor line of this utility model is equipped with photoelectric sensors at equal intervals to detect whether the material tray is in place and whether the number of milling cutters on the material tray meets the requirements. The tray-swing device at the end of the material tray conveyor line is used to place empty material trays on the conveyor line. The tray-swing mechanism adjusts the position of the milling cutters on the material tray to ensure that the milling cutters are neatly arranged. The tray-unloading robot is responsible for removing the loaded material trays from the conveyor line, preparing them for the next step of processing. The empty material tray destacking is responsible for transporting the empty material trays from the storage position to the loading position, providing empty material trays for the loading process. The timely supply of empty material trays can ensure that the production line will not be interrupted due to the lack of empty material trays, thereby improving the overall production efficiency.
