[0028] It should be noted that when a component is said to be "fixed to" another component, it can be directly attached to the other component or there may be an intervening component. When a component is said to be "connected to" another component, it can be directly connected to the other component or there may be an intervening component.

[0029] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention.

[0030] Please see Figures 1 to 4 The automatic positioning and feeding device for punch press according to one embodiment of the present utility model includes a cabinet 10, a material buffer component 20 installed on one side of the top surface of the cabinet 10, a positioning component 30 installed on the other side of the top surface of the cabinet 10, and a transfer component 40 installed on one side of the material buffer component 20.

[0031] The material buffer assembly 20 includes three limiting rods 21 evenly spaced at the center of the top surface of the cabinet 10, a lifting plate 22 slidably fitted with the three limiting rods 21, and a lifting linear module 23 installed on one side of the top surface of the cabinet 10. The lifting linear module 23 is connected to the lifting plate 22 to drive the lifting plate 22 to perform lifting movements. The lifting plate 22 is used to stack multiple materials 50, which are located within the space enclosed by the three limiting rods 21. In this embodiment, the materials 50 are arranged in a circular plate-like structure.

[0032] Specifically, the lifting plate 22 is provided with through holes 220 at even intervals, and the through holes 220 correspond one-to-one with the limiting rods 21.

[0033] The positioning component 30 includes a support rod 31 installed on the top surface of the cabinet 10 away from the lifting linear module 23, a support plate 32 installed at the top of the support rod 31, a loading platform 33 coaxially installed in the middle of the top surface of the support plate 32, push cylinders 34 installed on opposite sides of the loading platform 33, and push blocks 35 respectively connected to the end of the push cylinder 34 near the loading platform 33; the push blocks 35 are V-shaped and the height of the push blocks 35 is greater than the height of the loading platform 33.

[0034] In this embodiment, the loading platform 33 is circular; the movement direction of the pushing cylinder 34 is consistent with the radial direction of the loading platform 33. By using two push blocks 35 to push towards the center of the loading platform 33, the material 50 can be effectively pushed towards the center of the loading platform 33, adjusting the material 50 and the loading platform 33 to achieve coaxial positioning, realizing the positioning effect of the material 50, and ensuring that the material 50 can be accurately fed to the punch press 60.

The material-picking suction cup robot 45 is used to pick up the material 50 to be positioned from the lifting plate 22 and place it on the loading platform 33 for positioning. The material-feeding suction cup robot 46 is used to pick up the positioned material 50 from the loading platform 33 and place it on the punch press 60 for processing. Compared with the traditional manual feeding method, this invention has an automatic material positioning effect, automatically adjusting the position of the material 50 before sending it to the punch press 60, greatly improving positioning accuracy and processing efficiency.

[0036] In this embodiment, the center distance between the material-picking suction cup robot 45 and the material-feeding suction cup robot 46 is equal to the center distance between the lifting plate 22 and the loading platform 33.

[0037] The above-mentioned automatic positioning and feeding device for punch press has a simple structure and is easy to use. The material chuck robot 45 picks up the material 50 to be positioned from the lifting plate 22 and places it on the loading table 33 for positioning. The feeding chuck robot 46 picks up the positioned material 50 from the loading table 33 and places it on the punch press 60 for processing, thereby achieving automatic material positioning and greatly improving positioning accuracy and processing efficiency.

For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0039] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementations of this utility model, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
