[0052] The fixed frame 1 is equipped with and sets up the feed bin 101 and the plate collecting bin 102 side by side;

[0053] The feed lifting storage mechanism 2a extends into the feed bin 101, and is used for lifting a plurality of full-load fixture plates stacked in the feed bin 101 layer by layer upwards;

[0054] The feed lifting mechanical hand 3 is located above the feed bin 101, and is used for moving the full-load fixture plate on the top layer upwards to be higher than the fixed frame 1;

[0055] The plate moving mechanism 4 is slidingly arranged on the top of the fixed frame 1; Wherein, the plate moving mechanism 4 has a plate receiving state of sliding to the upper side of the feed bin 101 to receive the full-load fixture plate released by the feed lifting mechanical hand 3, and has a feed state of sliding to the upper side of the plate collecting bin 102 to supply the workpiece in the full-load fixture plate;

[0056] The collecting plate lifting mechanical hand 5 is located above the plate collecting bin 102, and is used for cooperating with the plate moving mechanism 4 to press the full-load fixture plate downwards and move the empty-load fixture plate on the plate moving mechanism 4 upwards to be higher than the plate moving mechanism 4;

[0057] The collecting plate lifting storage mechanism 2b extends into the plate collecting bin 102, and is used for driving a plurality of empty-load fixture plates stacked in the plate collecting bin 102 to move downwards layer by layer.

[0058] The feed collecting plate device provided by the embodiment has the following working process:

[0059] ① Initial state: a plurality of full-load fixture plates filled with workpieces are stacked and placed in the feed bin 101, and the plate moving mechanism 4 is in the feed state to avoid blocking the upward movement of the full-load fixture plate;

[0060] ② The feed lifting storage mechanism 2a starts to lift the full-load fixture plates in the feed bin 101 layer by layer upwards. When the full-load fixture plate on the top layer reaches the upper end bin position of the feed bin 101, the feed lifting storage mechanism 2a stops lifting;

[0061] ③ The feed lifting mechanical hand 3 starts to move the full-load fixture plate on the top layer upwards to be higher than the fixed frame 1 and the plate moving mechanism 4;

[0062] ④ The plate moving mechanism 4 slides from above the plate collecting bin 102 to above the plate feeding bin 101;

[0063] ⑤ The plate feeding lifting manipulator 3 places the full-load jig plate on the plate moving mechanism 4;

[0064] ⑥ The plate moving mechanism 4 carries the full-load jig plate to slide above the plate collecting bin 102, and the plate collecting lifting manipulator 5 presses the full-load jig plate downward to prevent the full-load jig plate from moving; at this time, on the one hand, the workpiece can be taken from the full-load jig plate by the taking equipment such as the taking manipulator outside, and on the other hand, the upper end opening of the plate feeding bin 101 is exposed, so that the plate feeding lifting storage mechanism 2a and the plate feeding lifting manipulator 3 can cooperate to lift the next full-load jig plate upward to wait for the plate moving mechanism 4 to receive the next time;

[0065] ⑦ After the workpiece supply is completed, the full-load jig plate becomes an empty-load jig plate, and the plate collecting lifting manipulator 5 starts to move the empty-load jig plate on the plate moving mechanism 4 upward to be higher than the plate moving mechanism 4;

[0066] ⑧ The plate moving mechanism 4 returns to above the plate feeding bin 101 to receive the next full-load jig plate; at this time, the upper end opening of the plate collecting bin 102 is exposed, and the plate collecting lifting manipulator 5 places the empty-load jig plate on the plate collecting lifting storage mechanism 2b;

[0067] ⑨ The plate collecting lifting storage mechanism 2b starts to drive the empty-load jig plate in the plate collecting bin 102 to move downward to complete the recovery of the empty-load jig plate and reserve space for receiving the next empty-load jig plate.

[0068] The steps ① to ⑨ are repeated to realize continuous workpiece supply and jig plate recovery operation.

[0069] Through the above working process, the plate feeding and collecting device realizes mechanized workpiece supply and jig plate recovery operation, reduces labor cost and improves production efficiency.

[0070] Referring to Figure 2 In the embodiment, the plate feeding lifting storage mechanism 2a and the plate collecting lifting storage mechanism 2b both include two oppositely arranged conveying belts 201, a lifting storage platform 202 located between the two conveying belts 201, and a storage linear driving mechanism 203 for driving the lifting storage platform 202 to move upward and downward.

[0071] Optionally, the outer sides of the two conveying belts 201 are provided with vertical baffles 204 to prevent the jig plate from falling laterally during lifting.

[0072] Referring to Figure 3The feeding lifting mechanical hand 3 comprises a T-shaped support 301 located above the feeding bin 101, a plurality of feeding suction heads 302 installed at the bottom of the T-shaped support 301, and a feeding lifting linear driving mechanism 303 for driving the T-shaped support 301 to move up and down.

[0073] The feeding lifting linear driving mechanism 303 drives the T-shaped support 301 to move up and down with the feeding suction heads 302, thereby driving the full-load gripper plate at the top to move up and down.

[0074] The design of the T-shaped support 301 is conducive to adsorbing the full-load gripper plate from the middle position, and is conducive to improving the balance of the full-load gripper plate that is sucked up as much as possible while using as few feeding suction heads 302 as possible, thereby reducing the risk of the full-load gripper plate falling down.

[0075] The plate moving mechanism 4 comprises a horizontal moving platform 401 for placing the gripper plate, and a platform horizontal moving linear driving mechanism 402 for driving the horizontal moving platform 401 to reciprocate above the feeding bin 101 and the plate collecting bin 102. The platform horizontal moving linear driving mechanism 402 drives the horizontal moving platform 401 to slide horizontally, thereby realizing position switching between the plate receiving state and the feeding state.

[0076] The plate collecting lifting mechanical hand 5 comprises a rectangular support 501 located above the plate collecting bin 102, a plurality of plate collecting suction heads 502 installed at the bottom of the rectangular support 501, and a plate collecting lifting linear driving mechanism 503 for driving the rectangular support 501 to move up and down. The plate collecting lifting linear driving mechanism 503 drives the rectangular support 501 to move up and down with the plate collecting suction heads 502, thereby driving the empty-load gripper plate to move up and down.

[0077] Further, the middle position of the rectangular support 501 encloses a rectangular taking space 5011 for the workpiece to pass through. The taking mechanical hand can take the workpiece from the full-load gripper plate through the rectangular taking space 5011, thereby avoiding the interference between the plate collecting lifting mechanical hand 5 and the taking mechanical hand. Further, the design of the rectangular support 501 is conducive to adsorbing the empty-load gripper plate from the edge position, so as to improve the adsorption reliability of the empty-load gripper plate.

[0078] In summary, the feeding and plate collecting device provided by the embodiment has the following advantages:

[0079] ① High degree of automation: through the collaborative work of the feeding lifting storage mechanism 2a, the feeding lifting mechanical hand 3, the plate moving mechanism 4, the plate collecting lifting mechanical hand 5, and the plate collecting lifting storage mechanism 2b, the automatic feeding and recycling of the gripper plate are realized, the labor cost is greatly reduced, and the production efficiency is improved.

[0080] ② Avoid interference problem: the rectangular support 501 of the collecting plate lifting manipulator 5 is designed with a rectangular taking space 5011 for the workpiece to pass through, avoiding interference with the taking manipulator and improving the flow of the production line.

[0081] ③ Adsorption reliability: the design of the rectangular support 501 is conducive to adsorbing the empty jig plate from the edge position, improving the reliability of adsorption and reducing the mistakes in operation; the design of the T-shaped support 301 is conducive to adsorbing the full-load jig plate from the middle position, which is conducive to improving the full-load jig plate that is sucked up as much as possible under the condition of using the feeding suction head 302 as little as possible.

[0082] ④ Strong flexibility: the plate moving mechanism 4 can be flexibly moved between the feeding bin 101 and the collecting plate bin 102, so that the workpiece supply and jig plate recovery can be continuously carried out, improving the use efficiency of the equipment.

[0083] It should be noted that the linear drive mechanism mentioned in the utility model can be a cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder, an electric cylinder or a motor screw linear module, and the rotary drive mechanism mentioned can be a brush motor, a brushless motor or a rotary cylinder. The utility model does not limit the specific structure of the linear drive mechanism and the rotary drive mechanism.

[0084] Finally, it should be noted that although the above embodiments have been described in the specification and drawings of the present application, it does not limit the patent protection scope of the present application. Any equivalent structure or equivalent process substitution or modification based on the essential concept of the present application, using the content described in the specification and drawings, and directly or indirectly implementing the technical solutions of the above embodiments in other related technical fields, etc. are all included in the patent protection scope of the present application.
