Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of feeding equipment technology, and more specifically, to a three-way positioning feeding device. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, the center hole of stainless steel tees is machined using a drawing process, therefore, a finishing operation is required afterward. When placing the stainless steel tee into the finishing equipment, its orientation needs to be determined. Therefore, the stainless steel tee must first be placed in a positioning seat to be grasped by the robotic arm and to ensure its fixed position. However, simply placing the stainless steel tee on the positioning seat without clamping control makes it prone to movement or even detachment from the positioning seat when subjected to external force. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a three-way positioning and feeding device to improve the stability of the clamping position of the three-way component.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a three-way positioning and feeding device, including a moving component capable of translation, the moving component including a positioning block, the positioning block including an extension at the top, the extension having a groove, the positioning block having at least a pair of four holes, the four holes penetrating the wall of the groove, the positioning block also having a first hole, a second hole, and a third hole, the second hole and the third hole being connected to the first hole, one of the two pairs of four holes being connected to the second hole and the other being connected to the third hole, the first hole being evacuated by an external vacuum device to create a negative pressure at the point where the fourth hole penetrates the groove.

[0005] The present invention is further configured such that a base support is installed at the bottom of the positioning block, the base support has an inner groove, and the positioning block is inserted into the inner groove and fixed to the base support.

[0006] The present invention is further provided that the extension portion is provided with a notch, the notch penetrates the outer wall of the extension portion and the penetration direction is perpendicular to the axial direction of the groove.

[0007] The present invention is further configured such that the base is equipped with a pin, which is inserted into the second hole.

[0008] The present invention is further configured such that a fastener is installed on the base, the fastener passes through the base and is threadedly connected to the insertion channel three.

[0009] The present invention is further configured such that a pad is installed between the bottom surface of the positioning block and the inner wall of the base, the four-hole channel passes through the bottom surface of the positioning block, and the upper end surface of the pad is attached to the bottom surface of the positioning block to close the bottom of the four-hole channel.

[0010] The present invention is further configured to include a connecting plate, which is capable of translation and vertical movement, and can also rotate in a horizontal plane. A cylinder three is installed at the output end of the connecting plate, which is located on both sides of the bottom of the connecting plate. A gripper is installed at the output end of the cylinder three. The gripper can be translated to move above the positioning block, and the gripper can move downward so that the upper part of the positioning block is located inside the gripper.

[0011] The present invention is further configured to include a moving module, which is capable of translation and the translation direction is the same as that of the moving component. A cylinder is installed at the output end of the moving module, a support plate is installed at the output end of the cylinder, the support plate is capable of moving up and down, a cylinder is installed on the support plate, and a connecting plate is installed at the output end of the cylinder.

[0012] The present invention is further configured such that the second cylinder is a rotary cylinder.

[0013] In summary, this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] By creating negative pressure within the fourth channel, the tee fitting at the groove of the fourth channel is pressed tightly against the groove wall under the negative pressure. This reduces the likelihood of the mechanical grippers or the operator slightly impacting the tee fitting again after the insertion operation, causing the tee fitting to shift position or detach from the positioning block. This ensures the stability of the tee fitting's position when it is subsequently gripped again. Attached Figure Description

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0022] like Figures 1-5 As shown, this embodiment discloses a three-way positioning and feeding device, including a worktable 1. The worktable 1 is equipped with a drive component 2, which is a rodless cylinder. The output end of the drive component 2 is equipped with a moving component 3, which can move left and right to drive the moving component 3 to move synchronously.

[0023] like Figure 3 As shown, the moving component 3 includes a positioning block 32, which is a cuboid block structure. Combined with... Figure 2 , Figure 3 The positioning block 32 includes an extension 321 located at the top. The extension 321 has a groove 3211, which is semi-cylindrical and extends through the positioning block 32. The extension 321 also has a notch 3212, which extends through the outer wall of the extension 321 and is perpendicular to the axial direction of the groove 3211. The groove 3211 and the notch 3212 are used to position the tee member 7, in conjunction with... Figure 5 The tee fitting 7 is inserted into the groove 3211, and the outer wall of the tee fitting 7 fits against the wall of the groove 3211. The tee fitting 7 includes a protrusion 71, which is an extended pipe formed by a drawing process and requires internal hole trimming. The protrusion 71 is inserted into the notch 3212. The positioning of the tee fitting 7 by the groove 3211 and the notch 3212 facilitates the transfer of the protrusion 71 into the internal hole trimming equipment for internal hole trimming.

[0024] like Figure 2 , Figure 3As shown, the positioning block 32 has at least one pair of channels 325, which extend vertically through the positioning block 32. Preferably, there are two pairs of channels 325, with the pairs distributed along the axial direction of the groove 3211, and the two pairs of channels 325 distributed on both sides of the axial direction of the groove 3211. The channels 325 penetrate the wall of the groove 3211, and by creating a negative pressure within the channels 325, the tee member 7 at the groove 3211 is pressed tightly against the wall of the groove 3211 under the action of the negative pressure. Since the tee member 7 is not clamped, the above arrangement can reduce the occurrence of slight collisions between the mechanical grippers or the operator when placing the tee member 7 into the groove 3211, which could cause the tee member 7 to shift or detach from the positioning block 32, thus ensuring the stability of the position of the tee member 7 when it is subsequently clamped again. Furthermore, when the tee 7 is placed into the groove 3211, the suction force facilitates the tee 7 to quickly fit into the groove 3211, improving operational efficiency.

[0025] like Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the positioning block 32 is also provided with channel 1 322, channel 2 323, and channel 3 324, both of which are connected to channel 1 322. One of the two paired channels 4 325 is connected to channel 2 323, and the other is connected to channel 3 324. Channel 1 322 is evacuated by an external vacuum device to create negative pressure at the groove 3211 through which channel 4 325 passes.

[0026] like Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, a base support 31 is mounted on the bottom of the positioning block 32. The base support 31 has an inner groove 311, into which the positioning block 32 is inserted and fixed. Specifically, a pin 36 is mounted on the base support 31. The pin 36 passes through the base support 31 with an interference fit and is fitted into the insertion channel 323. A fastener 37, which is a screw, is mounted on the base support 31. The fastener 37 passes through the base support 31 and is threaded into the insertion channel 324.

[0027] A pad 33 is installed between the bottom surface of the positioning block 32 and the inner wall of the base 31. The channel 325 passes through the bottom surface of the positioning block 32. The upper surface of the pad 33 is attached to the bottom surface of the positioning block 32 to close the bottom of the channel 325.

[0028] like Figure 4 As shown, a pad 34 is installed between the side wall of the positioning block 32 and the inner wall of the base 31. The pad 34 closes one axial end of the channel 322. At the other axial end of the channel 322, the base 31 is equipped with a connector 35. The connector 35 has a channel 351. The channel 351 is connected to the air pipe of the vacuum pump. The channel 351 is connected to the channel 322.

[0029] like Figure 1 As shown, the three-way positioning and feeding device also includes a moving module 4, which can move left and right. A cylinder 41 is mounted on the output end of the moving module 4, and a support plate 411 is mounted on the output end of the cylinder 41. The support plate 411 can move up and down. A second cylinder 5 is mounted on the support plate 411; the second cylinder 5 is a rotary cylinder. A connecting plate 51 is mounted on the output end of the second cylinder 5, and the connecting plate 51 can also rotate in the horizontal plane. A third cylinder 6 is mounted on the output end of the connecting plate 51, located on both sides of the bottom of the connecting plate 51. A gripper 61 is mounted on the output end of the third cylinder 6. The gripper 61 can move horizontally to above the positioning block 32, and can also move downwards to position the upper part of the positioning block 32 within the gripper 61. Specifically, the gripper 61 on the right side of the connecting plate 51 moves to the right, and the tee piece 7 moves to the left under the drive of the moving component 3, so that the gripper 61 on the right side of the connecting plate 51 is above the positioning block 32. The right gripper 61 grabs the tee piece 7 downwards, and the gripper 61 on the right side of the connecting plate 51 rotates to the left side of the connecting plate 51 and is transported to the hole-repairing device for hole repair through the moving module 4. After the hole repair is completed, the gripper 61 on the left side of the connecting plate 51 takes it back and unloads it.
