When the upstream material arrives, the table frame assembly has been placed in the table frame carrier and the table frame assembly is in a clamped state. When it is necessary to clean the table frame assembly, the feeding conveyor belt first transports the table frame carrier to the bottom of the lifting and turning mechanism.

[0025] Next, the lifting and flipping mechanism pushes the frame carrier upward out of the feeding conveyor belt, and then flips it 180° up and down so that the surface of the frame assembly to be cleaned is facing down.

[0026] Then, the cleaning and handling machinery transfers the flipped watch frame carrier to the blower and dust collector, which then cleans the surface of the watch frame assembly.

[0027] Finally, the cleaning and handling equipment removes the cleaned frame assembly, along with the frame carrier, from the blower and vacuum cleaner.

[0028] Therefore, the watch frame cleaning and feeding device provided by this utility model can realize the mechanized cleaning and loading / unloading of watch frame components, thereby reducing labor costs and improving production efficiency. Attached Figure Description

[0049] See Figure 1 This utility model provides a watch frame cleaning and feeding device, including a watch frame carrier 1, a feeding conveyor belt 2, a lifting and flipping mechanism 3, and a cleaning and handling robot 4.

[0050] The watch frame carrier 1 has a clamped state for clamping the watch frame assembly to be cleaned and a released state for releasing the watch frame assembly; the feeding conveyor belt 2 is used to transport the watch frame carrier 1; the lifting and flipping mechanism 3 is used to push the watch frame carrier 1 upward out of the feeding conveyor belt 2, and then flip it 180° so that the surface of the watch frame assembly to be cleaned is facing downward; the cleaning and handling robot 4 is used to transfer the flipped watch frame carrier 1 to the blower and vacuum cleaner 100.

[0051] In the table frame cleaning feeding device provided in this embodiment, when the upstream material arrives, the table frame assembly has been placed in the table frame carrier 1 and the table frame assembly is in a clamped state. When it is necessary to clean the table frame assembly, the feeding conveyor belt 2 first transports the table frame carrier 1 to the bottom of the lifting and turning mechanism 3.

[0052] Next, the lifting and flipping mechanism 3 pushes the frame carrier 1 upward out of the feeding conveyor belt 2, and then flips it 180° up and down so that the surface to be cleaned of the frame assembly is facing down.

[0053] Then, the cleaning and handling machinery transfers the flipped watch frame carrier 1 to the blower and dust collector 100, which then performs dust cleaning on the surface of the watch frame assembly.

[0054] Finally, the cleaning and handling machinery removes the cleaned frame assembly, along with the frame carrier 1, from the blower and vacuum cleaner 100.

[0055] See Figures 2-4 The frame carrier 1 includes a U-shaped carrier body 101, two sliding clamps 102, a sliding push block 103, and a return spring 104.

[0056] The two sliding clamps 102 are slidably mounted in the U-shaped carrier body 101 and are used to cooperate with each other to clamp the watch frame assembly. Each sliding clamp 102 is provided with a clamping spring 105 on the side away from the other sliding clamp 102; the clamping spring 105 is used to drive the corresponding sliding clamp 102 to slide towards the watch frame assembly to the clamping state.

[0057] The sliding push block 103 is slidably disposed with the U-shaped carrier body 101 and is located between the two sliding clamp blocks 102; when the sliding push block 103 is driven to slide towards the frame assembly, the two sliding clamp blocks 102 slide away from each other to the released state; wherein, the contact surface between the sliding push block 103 and the sliding clamp block 102 is an inclined surface 1031.

[0058] The sliding push block 103 is provided with a rotating hook plate 106 that rotates around a horizontal axis. The bottom of the rotating hook plate 106 near the end of the watch frame assembly is provided with a hook plate spring 107. The hook plate spring 107 is used to drive the rotating hook plate 106 to rotate upward until it engages with the U-shaped carrier body 101, so as to restrict the sliding push block 103 from sliding away from the watch frame assembly.

[0059] The reset spring 104 is located on the side of the sliding push block 103 near the watch frame assembly, and is used to drive the sliding push block 103 to slide away from the watch frame assembly.

[0060] The state switching platform includes a vehicle placement plate, a vehicle clamping mechanism, a hook plate unlocking direct drive mechanism, and an opening clamping linear drive mechanism.

[0061] The carrier placement plate is used to place the watch frame carrier 1; the carrier clamping mechanism is located above the carrier placement plate and is used to laterally clamp or release the watch frame carrier 1. The hook plate unlocking direct drive mechanism is located below the end of the rotating hook plate 106 away from the watch frame assembly and is used to push the rotating hook plate 106 upward to release the locking limit between the rotating hook plate 106 and the U-shaped carrier body 101. The clamping linear drive mechanism is located on the side of the sliding push block 103 away from the watch frame assembly and is used to push the sliding push block 103 to open the two sliding clamping blocks 102.

[0062] The working process of frame carrier 1 is as follows:

[0063] (1) When the watch frame assembly needs to be installed, push the sliding push block 103 inward. Under the action of the driving force, the sliding push block 103 slides towards the watch frame assembly. Since the contact surface between the sliding push block 103 and the sliding clamp block 102 is an inclined surface 1031, the movement of the sliding push block 103 causes the two sliding clamp blocks 102 to slide away from each other, thereby entering the released state, which makes it easy to install or remove the watch frame assembly.

[0064] It should be noted that after the sliding push block 103 slides inward to its limit position, the hook plate spring 107 drives the inner end of the rotating hook plate 106 to engage with the U-shaped carrier body 101 upward, thereby keeping it in a released state.

[0065] (2) After placing the watch frame assembly, when it is necessary to clamp and fix the watch frame assembly, push the outer end of the rotating hook plate 106 upward to release the engagement between the rotating hook plate 106 and the U-shaped carrier body 101. Under the action of the clamping spring 105, the two sliding clamping blocks 102 slide towards the watch frame assembly until the watch frame assembly is clamped. At this time, the watch frame carrier 1 is in a clamped state and can stably carry the watch frame assembly for the next operation.

[0066] See Figure 5Optionally, the lifting and flipping mechanism 3 includes a lifting assembly 301 for lifting the frame carrier 1 upwards, a flipping gripper 302 for laterally clamping the lifted frame carrier 1, and a gripper flipping rotation drive mechanism 303 for driving the flipping gripper 302 to rotate around a horizontal axis. After the lifting assembly 301 lifts the frame carrier 1 upwards out of the feeding conveyor belt 2, the flipping gripper 302 clamps the frame carrier 1 and rotates it 180° around the horizontal axis under the drive of the gripper flipping rotation drive mechanism. At this time, the surface of the frame assembly to be cleaned is facing downwards, so that the subsequent cleaning and handling robot 4 can place the frame assembly into the blower and vacuum cleaner 100 with the surface to be cleaned facing downwards.

[0067] The cleaning and handling robot 4 has two handling jaws 401 at its end for gripping the watch frame carrier 1, and a rotational drive mechanism 402 for rotating the two handling jaws 401 around a vertical axis. One handling jaw 401 is used to grip the uncleaned watch frame assembly, and the other handling jaw 401 is used to grip the cleaned watch frame assembly. A single linear reciprocating motion completes both the loading and unloading operations.

[0068] Through the above steps, the frame cleaning and feeding device provided in this embodiment realizes the mechanized cleaning and loading / unloading of frame components, which not only improves production efficiency but also reduces labor costs.

[0069] It should be noted that the linear drive mechanism mentioned in this utility model can be a cylinder, hydraulic cylinder, electric cylinder, or motor lead screw linear module, etc., and the rotary drive mechanism mentioned can be a brushed motor, brushless motor, or rotary cylinder, etc. This utility model does not limit the specific structural form of the linear drive mechanism and the rotary drive mechanism.

[0070] Finally, it should be noted that although the above embodiments have been described in the text and drawings of this application, this should not limit the scope of patent protection of this application. Any technical solutions that are based on the essential concept of this application and utilize the content described in the text and drawings of this application, resulting in equivalent structural or procedural substitutions or modifications, as well as the direct or indirect application of the technical solutions of the above embodiments to other related technical fields, are all included within the scope of patent protection of this application.
