[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of this utility model is implemented as follows:

[0005] A ground-rail type robot for automatically picking up and placing mold cores includes a ground rail and a robotic arm. A movable plate that reciprocates along the ground rail is provided on the ground rail. A base rotary cylinder is provided on the movable plate. The robotic arm is provided on the rotating platform of the base rotary cylinder. The robotic arm includes a first rotating arm, a second rotating arm, a mold core rotary cylinder, and a mold core clamp. The first rotating cylinder is provided at the lower end of the first rotating arm; the second rotating cylinder is provided between the first rotating arm and the second rotating arm; and the mold core rotary cylinder is provided between the front end of the second rotating arm and the mold core clamp.

[0006] The mold core fixture includes a frame, a clamping cylinder, a cylinder mounting base, and a clamping block. The frame is generally square, and cylinder mounting bases are respectively provided at the four corners of the frame. The clamping cylinder is installed in the cylinder mounting base. The telescopic rod of the clamping cylinder is connected to the clamping block. The clamping block is driven by the clamping cylinder to move back and forth along the diagonal of the frame. The four corners of the mold core are respectively provided with clamping block grooves, and the clamping block can be inserted into the clamping block grooves.

[0007] Furthermore, a photoelectric switch sensor is provided on the frame.

[0008] Furthermore, the angle between the clamping block and the side of the frame is 45 degrees.

[0009] Furthermore, the frame is provided with reinforcing ribs, which are located on both sides of the mold core rotary cylinder.

Detailed Implementation

[0020] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0021] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0022] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, an automatic mold core loading and unloading ground rail robot includes a ground rail and a robotic arm. A movable plate 3 that reciprocates along the ground rail 1 is provided on the ground rail 1. A base rotary cylinder 4 is provided on the movable plate 3. A robotic arm is provided on the rotating platform of the base rotary cylinder 4. The robotic arm includes a first rotating arm 6, a second rotating arm 8, a mold core rotary cylinder 9, and a mold core clamping fixture 10. A first rotary cylinder 5 is provided at the lower end of the first rotating arm 6; a second rotary cylinder 7 is provided between the first rotating arm 6 and the second rotating arm 8; and a mold core rotary cylinder 9 is provided between the front end of the second rotating arm 8 and the mold core clamping fixture.

[0023] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the mold core fixture 10 includes a frame 16, a clamping cylinder 14, a cylinder mounting base 13, and a clamping block 15. The frame 16 is generally square, and cylinder mounting bases 13 are respectively provided at the four corners of the frame 16. The clamping cylinder 14 is installed in the cylinder mounting base 13. The telescopic rod of the clamping cylinder 14 is connected to the clamping block 15. The clamping block 15 is driven by the clamping cylinder 14 to move back and forth along the diagonal of the frame 16. The four corners of the mold core 11 are respectively provided with clamping block grooves 21, and the clamping block 15 can be inserted into the clamping block grooves 21.

[0024] Among them, the base rotary cylinder 4, the first rotary cylinder 5, the second rotary cylinder 7 and the mold core rotary cylinder 9 are rotary cylinders. Rotary cylinders have the advantages of rapid rotation and accurate angle, and can reduce equipment costs.

[0025] The working principle of an automatic mold core picking and placing ground rail robot is as follows: the ground rail 1 drives the robot arm to move. The robot arm is a multi-axis rotating robot arm composed of a base rotating cylinder 4, a first rotating cylinder 5, a second rotating cylinder 7, and a mold core rotating cylinder 9, which drives the mold core clamp 10 to pick up, place, and hold the mold core. When the mold core clamp 10 holds the mold core, the frame 16 moves to the mold core, so that the mold core is located inside the frame 16. The clamping cylinder 14 is activated, which drives the clamping blocks 15 to insert into the clamping block grooves 21 from the four corners of the frame 16 along the diagonal of the frame 16 to clamp the mold core 11. The clamping is stable and supports the mold core flipping. The ground rail robot is used to perform the movement and multi-axis rotation of the mold core, and supports mold core picking and placing and manual deburring of products.

[0026] like Figure 2 As shown, a photoelectric switch sensor 17 is provided on the frame 16. The photoelectric switch sensor 17 is used to detect whether the mold core is in place inside the mold core fixture 10, thereby improving the safety and accuracy of equipment operation.

[0027] In this preferred embodiment, the angle between the clamping block 15 and the side of the frame 16 is 45 degrees. This further improves clamping stability to support mold core flipping.

[0028] like Figure 2 As shown, the frame 16 is provided with reinforcing ribs 18, which are located on both sides of the mold core rotary cylinder 9. The reinforcing ribs 18 are used to improve the reliability of the connection and increase the strength of the frame 16.

[0029] like Figure 2 As shown, a connecting arm 20 is provided at the front end of the second rotating arm 8, and a mounting base 19 is provided on the connecting arm 20. The mold core rotating cylinder 9 is mounted on the mounting base 19. The connecting arm 20 is used to connect the second rotating arm 8, and the mounting base 19 is used to mount the mold core rotating cylinder 9. The structure is compact, reducing space occupation.

[0030] like Figure 1 As shown, the ground rail 1 is a cylinder-type ground rail, including a track 22, a slider 2, and a cable tray 12. The slider 2 is installed on the track 22, and the movable plate 3 is mounted on the slider 2. The cable tray 12 passes through the inside of the track 22. The cable tray 12 is located inside the track 22, making the overall structure simpler, facilitating cable installation, and reducing equipment costs.

[0031] A ground-rail robot for automatically picking up and placing mold cores uses a clamping cylinder to drive clamping blocks to be inserted into the clamping block grooves from the four corners of the frame along the diagonal of the frame to clamp the mold core. This enables stable clamping of the mold core and supports mold core rotation. The ground-rail robot is used to perform the movement and multi-axis rotation of the mold core, supports mold core picking and placing, replaces manual mold core picking and placing, and improves production efficiency.

[0032] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
