Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of detonation sensor manufacturing technology, and in particular to a detonation sensor storage system. Background Technology
[0002] In the production process of knock sensors, components are typically assembled manually, and the sensors are then manually stored after assembly, resulting in low production and storage efficiency. Furthermore, as labor costs increase, the production cost of knock sensors also rises. Utility Model Content
[0003] To improve the production and storage efficiency of detonation sensors and reduce production costs, this utility model proposes a detonation sensor storage system. The system includes a conveying device and a storage gripper. The conveying device includes a conveying bracket with a conveying rail on its lower layer. A conveying slide is mounted on the conveying rail and can slide along it to support a storage tray. The upper layer of the conveying bracket has a lifting channel for the storage tray to pass through, and a tray clamp for holding the storage tray is provided around the lifting channel. The storage gripper is located above the lifting channel and close to the detonation sensor conveyor belt. When using the detonation sensor storage system of this invention to store the produced detonation sensors, a storage gripper can be used to pick up the detonation sensors from the detonation sensor conveyor belt and transfer them to a storage tray held by a tray clamp. Once the storage tray is full of detonation sensors, the tray clamp releases the storage tray and places it onto a conveyor slide. The conveyor slide then transports the storage tray to the storage position along the conveyor rail. Therefore, using the detonation sensor storage system of this invention to store the produced detonation sensors can effectively improve the storage efficiency of the detonation sensors, thereby increasing the production efficiency and reducing the production cost.
[0004] Preferably, the conveying slide includes a slider and a tray. The slider is engaged on the conveying rail, and the tray is mounted on the slider and located above it, with the tray capable of lifting and lowering above the slider. During storage, the tray can be raised from the lifting slot and held by a tray clamp, facilitating the placement of the knock sensor into the storage tray by the storage gripper. Conversely, the tray can be raised from the tray clamp and lowered from the lifting slot, allowing the conveying slide to transport the tray to the storage location. Furthermore, a lifting cylinder and lifting guide rods are provided between the slider and the tray. The drive rod of the lifting cylinder is perpendicularly connected to the tray, and two lifting guide rods are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the lifting cylinder and perpendicularly connected to the slider and the tray. In this way, during use, the lifting cylinder can be used to drive the pallet to move up and down, making control simple and convenient; at the same time, the lifting guide rod controls the lifting direction of the pallet, avoiding swaying or misalignment during the lifting process. More preferably, the conveying slide includes a conveying drive component, which is connected to the slider and drives the slider to slide along the conveying rail. Thus, during the conveying process, the conveying drive component can drive the slider to move the pallet along the conveying rail, resulting in a simple structure and convenient control.
[0005] Preferably, the storage gripper includes a movable frame and a mechanical gripper. The movable frame is mounted on a movable slide rail on the conveyor support and can slide along the slide rail. The mechanical gripper is mounted on the movable frame and moves between the detonation sensor conveyor belt and the lifting channel under the drive of the movable frame. In this way, when transferring detonation sensors, the storage gripper uses the mechanical gripper to grasp the detonation sensor, and the movable frame drives the mechanical gripper to slide along the slide rail. This facilitates the mechanical gripper placing the grasped detonation sensor at different storage points on the storage tray, effectively improving the storage efficiency of the detonation sensor.
[0006] Preferably, the tray clamp includes clamping plates and a clamping drive component. The two clamping plates are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the lifting channel. The clamping drive component is installed and fixed on the upper layer of the conveying bracket and connected to the clamping plates. The clamping drive component drives the clamping plates to move and clamp or release the storage tray. Thus, when using the tray clamp to hold the storage tray, the clamping drive component can be used to move the clamping plates towards the storage tray to hold it; when the tray clamp releases the storage tray, the clamping drive component can be used to slide the clamping plates away from the storage tray. Therefore, the tray clamp in the knock sensor storage system of this invention has a simple structure, and the clamping control is simple, convenient, and stable.
[0007] Preferably, the detonation sensor storage system includes an empty tray storage device, which includes an empty tray positioning mechanism and two empty tray clamps. The empty tray positioning mechanism is installed and fixed on the upper layer of the conveying bracket and clamps the edge and / or corner of the storage tray. The empty tray clamps include an empty tray clamping drive and an empty tray clip. The empty tray clamping drive is connected to the empty tray clip and drives the empty tray clip to clamp or release the storage tray. In this way, when using the empty tray storage device to store storage trays, multiple storage trays are stacked in the empty tray positioning mechanism. The empty tray positioning mechanism holds the edges and / or corners of the storage trays, and the empty tray clamp holds the bottom empty tray in the empty tray positioning mechanism. This facilitates the positioning of the storage trays, ensuring they are neatly stacked in the empty tray positioning mechanism. It also allows the empty tray storage device to release the bottom tray and place it on the conveyor slide during its return journey after delivering a storage tray full of knock sensors to the storage position. Furthermore, the empty tray clamp includes a support plate, and when the empty tray clamp holds the storage tray, the support plate supports the bottom of the storage tray. Thus, when the empty tray clamp holds an empty storage tray, the support plate supports the bottom of the storage tray, making clamping simple, convenient, and stable. More preferably, the empty tray clamp includes an empty tray pressure plate, which is parallel to and opposite to the support plate. When the empty tray clamp holds the storage tray, the empty tray pressure plate presses onto the storage tray. Thus, when using the empty tray clamp to hold an empty storage tray, the empty tray pressure plate and the support plate work together to hold the storage tray in place, preventing it from shaking when the knock sensor is placed inside, which would affect the storage efficiency of the knock sensor. Preferably, the empty tray positioning mechanism includes a positioning corner, which is vertically fixed to the upper layer of the conveyor bracket. When the storage tray is placed in the empty tray positioning mechanism, the positioning corner engages with a corner of the storage tray. Therefore, using a positioning corner vertically fixed to the upper layer of the conveyor bracket to form the empty tray positioning mechanism results in a simple structure, convenient and quick manufacturing, and low cost.

[0010] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the knock sensor storage system of this utility model when the storage tray is held by the tray clamp. Detailed Implementation
[0011] Below, in conjunction with the appendix Figures 1 to 3This paper provides a detailed description of the knock sensor storage system of this utility model.
[0012] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, the knock sensor storage system of this utility model includes a conveying device and a storage gripper. The conveying device includes a conveying bracket 11, the lower layer of which is provided with a conveying slide rail 12. A conveying slide 13 is installed on the conveying slide rail 12 and can slide along the conveying slide rail 12 to support the storage tray 3. The upper layer of the conveying bracket 11 is provided with a lifting channel 111 for the storage tray 3 to pass through, and a tray clamp for holding the storage tray 3 is provided around the lifting channel 111. The storage gripper 2 is located above the lifting channel 111 and close to the knock sensor conveyor belt 4. When using the detonation sensor storage system of this invention to store the produced detonation sensors 5, the storage gripper 2 can grab the detonation sensors 5 from the detonation sensor conveyor belt 4 and transfer them to the storage tray 3 held by the tray clamp. After the storage tray 3 is full of detonation sensors 5, the tray clamp releases the storage tray 3 and places it on the conveyor slide 13. The conveyor slide 13 then transports the storage tray 3 to the storage position (not shown in the figure) along the conveyor rail 12. Therefore, when producing detonation sensors 5, using the detonation sensor storage system of this invention can effectively improve the storage efficiency of the detonation sensors 5, thereby increasing the production efficiency of the detonation sensors 5 and reducing the production cost of the detonation sensors 5. Preferably, the conveying slide 13 includes a slider 131 and a tray 132. The slider 131 is engaged on the conveying slide rail 12, and the tray 132 is mounted on the slider 131 and located above the slider 131. The tray 132 can move up and down above the slider 131. In this way, during the storage process, the storage tray 3 can be raised from the lifting channel 111 by raising and lowering the tray 132, and the storage tray 3 can be held by the tray clamp, so that the storage gripper 2 can place the knock sensor 5 into the storage tray 3. The storage tray 3 filled with knock sensors 5 can be lifted from the tray clamp and lowered from the lifting channel 111 by raising and lowering the tray 13, so that the conveying slide 13 can transport the storage tray 3 filled with knock sensors 5 to the storage position. Preferably, a lifting cylinder 133 and a lifting guide rod 134 are provided between the slider 131 and the support plate 132. The drive rod of the lifting cylinder 133 (not shown in the figure) is perpendicularly connected to the support plate 132. The two lifting guide rods 134 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the lifting cylinder 133, and their ends are perpendicularly connected to the slider 131 and the support plate 132, respectively. In this way, during use, the lifting cylinder 133 can be used to drive the support plate 132 to move up and down, which is simple and convenient to control. At the same time, the lifting guide rods 134 are used to control the lifting direction of the support plate 132, avoiding the problem of the support plate 132 shaking or misaligning during the lifting process. In the specific implementation of this utility model, other driving components can also be used to drive the support plate 132 to move up and down above the slider 131. Preferably, the conveying slide 13 includes a conveying drive component (not shown in the figure), which is connected to the slider 131 and drives the slider 131 to slide along the conveying slide rail 12.Thus, during the conveying process, the slider 131 can be driven along the conveying slide rail 12 by the conveying drive component, thereby causing the pallet 132 to slide along the conveying slide rail 12. The structure is simple and the control is convenient. Preferably, the pallet clamp includes a clamping plate 141 and a clamping drive component 142. The two clamping plates 141 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the lifting channel 111. The clamping drive component 142 is installed and fixed on the upper layer of the conveying bracket 11 and connected to the clamping plate 141. The clamping drive component 142 drives the clamping plate 141 to move to clamp or release the storage pallet 3. Thus, when using the pallet clamp to clamp the storage pallet 3, the clamping drive component 142 can be used to drive the clamping plate 141 to move towards the storage pallet 3 to clamp the storage pallet 3; when the pallet clamp releases the storage pallet 3, the clamping drive component 142 can be used to drive the clamping plate 141 to slide away from the storage pallet 3. It can be seen that the pallet clamp in the explosion sensor storage system of this utility model has a simple structure, and the clamping control is simple, convenient and stable. Preferably, the clamping side of the clamping plate 141 away from the clamping drive member 142 has a stepped structure. Thus, when the clamping plate 141 clamps the storage tray 3, the storage tray 3 is supported by the stepped plane 1411 at the farthest end of the clamping plate 141 away from the clamping drive member 142, and the storage tray 3 is clamped by the stepped vertical surface 1412 connected to the stepped plane 1411. This facilitates the clamping plate 141 in holding the storage tray 3 under the drive of the clamping drive member 142, and also improves the stability of the tray clamp when holding the storage tray 3. Preferably, a drive cylinder is used as the clamping drive member 142, which is simple and convenient to select and control.
[0013] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the storage gripper includes a movable frame 21 and a mechanical gripper 22. The movable frame 21 is mounted on a movable slide rail 112 on the conveyor support 11 and can slide along the slide rail 112. The mechanical gripper 22 is mounted on the movable frame 21 and moves between the detonation sensor conveyor belt 4 and the lifting channel 111 under the drive of the movable frame 21. In this way, when transferring the detonation sensor 5, the storage gripper 22 uses the mechanical gripper 22 to grab the detonation sensor 5, and the movable frame 21 drives the mechanical gripper 22 to slide along the slide rail 112, which facilitates the mechanical gripper 22 to place the grabbed detonation sensor 5 to different storage points on the storage tray 3, which can effectively improve the storage efficiency of the detonation sensor 5.
[0014] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, the detonation sensor storage system includes an empty tray storage device 6, which includes an empty tray positioning mechanism 61 and two empty tray clamps. The empty tray positioning mechanism 61 is mounted and fixed on the upper layer of the conveying bracket 11 and clamps the edge and / or corner of the storage tray 3. The empty tray clamps include an empty tray clamping drive 621 and an empty tray clamp 622. The empty tray clamping drive 621 is connected to the empty tray clamp 622 and drives the empty tray clamp 622 to clamp or release the storage tray 3. Thus, when using the empty tray storage device to store empty storage trays 3, multiple storage trays 3 are stacked in the empty tray positioning mechanism 61. The empty tray positioning mechanism 61 holds the edges and / or corners of the storage trays 3, and the empty tray clamp holds the bottom empty tray 3 in the empty tray positioning mechanism 61. This facilitates the positioning of the storage trays 3, ensuring that the storage trays 3 are neatly stacked in the empty tray positioning mechanism 61. It also facilitates the empty tray storage device to release the bottom storage tray 3 and place it on the conveyor slide 13 during its return journey after the storage tray 3 filled with knock sensors 5 has been delivered to the storage position. Preferably, a drive cylinder is used as the empty tray clamping drive 621, which is simple and convenient to select and control. Preferably, the empty tray clamp 622 includes a support plate 6221, and when the empty tray clamp 622 holds the storage tray 3, the support plate 6221 supports the bottom of the storage tray 3. In this way, when the empty disk clamp 622 holds an empty storage tray 3, the support plate 6221 supports the bottom of the storage tray 3, making clamping simple, convenient, and stable. Preferably, the empty disk clamp 622 includes an empty disk pressure plate 6222, which is parallel to and opposite to the support plate 6221. When the empty disk clamp 622 holds the storage tray 3, the empty disk pressure plate 6222 presses down on the storage tray 3. Thus, when using the empty disk clamp 622 to hold an empty storage tray 3, the empty disk pressure plate 6222 and the support plate 6221 can work together to hold the storage tray 3, preventing the storage tray 3 from shaking when the knock sensor 5 is placed in it, thus affecting the storage efficiency of the knock sensor 5. Preferably, the empty tray positioning mechanism 61 includes positioning corner brackets 611, which are vertically fixed to the upper layer of the conveyor support 11. When the storage tray 3 is placed in the empty tray positioning mechanism 61, the positioning corner brackets 611 engage the corners of the storage tray 3. Thus, the empty tray positioning mechanism 61, constructed using positioning corner brackets 611 vertically fixed to the upper layer of the conveyor support 11, has a simple structure, is easy and quick to manufacture, and is low in cost. Preferably, four positioning corner brackets 611 are used to construct the empty tray positioning mechanism 61, engaging the four corners of the storage tray 3. This empty tray positioning mechanism 61 has a simple structure. In specific implementations, positioning corner brackets 611 of varying lengths can be selected to construct the empty tray positioning mechanism 61 as needed, thereby further reducing the manufacturing cost of the empty tray positioning mechanism 61. Preferably, the positioning corner brackets 611 are made of angle steel. Using angle steel to make the positioning corner brackets 611 is convenient in material selection and simple in manufacturing, further reducing the manufacturing difficulty and cost of the empty tray positioning mechanism 61.In the specific implementation of this utility model, a corresponding number of empty tray storage devices can be set according to the storage position of the storage tray and the spacing between the tray clamps, so as to improve the storage capacity of the explosion sensor storage system of this utility model for empty storage trays.
