[0022] 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.

[0023] Customers may not use boards that perfectly fit the equipment width for cutting during equipment use. Often, they will use boards smaller than the equipment width for cutting. In such cases, manual adjustment of the suction cup switch on the material suction device is often required to accommodate different board sizes and meet production needs. When there are many different board sizes, this device can greatly improve production efficiency. The following describes some embodiments of this utility model with reference to the accompanying drawings, providing a device for identifying the size of raw material boards.

[0024] Example 1:

[0025] In order to effectively identify and fix the board material, combined with Figures 1-5 As shown, a device for identifying the size of raw material boards is proposed. A main body 1 is set as the main body of the device, and a support mechanism 3 is set at the bottom of the main body 1 to support the entire device. A detection mechanism 2 is set on the main body 1 to easily and fixedly identify the size of the board.

[0026] To fix boards of different sizes, a detection mechanism 2 is proposed. This mechanism comprises multiple mounting brackets 201, each with two crossbars 202 fixedly connected to it. Each mounting bracket 201 is equipped with a suction cup 203. Supports 204 are mounted on the two crossbars 202. A flipping component 205 is mounted on one mounting bracket 201 for easy rotation of the board. An identification component 206 is also mounted on the flipping component 205 for easy identification of the board. Multiple fixed brackets 2051 are fixedly connected to the frame 201. Connecting brackets 2052 are rotatably connected to each of the fixed brackets 2051. Telescopic rods 2053 are installed between the fixed brackets 2051 and the connecting brackets 2052. Connecting blocks 2054 are fixedly connected to the bottom of each connecting bracket 2052. Connecting rods 2055 are fixedly connected to the bottom of each connecting block 2054. Multiple rotating suction cups are installed on the connecting rods 2055. Switches that control the airflow are installed on the fixed suction cups 203 and the rotating suction cups. The airflow is controlled by the connecting rods 2051. Multiple fixing blocks 2061 are fixedly connected to the robotic arm 102. A first support rod 2062 is fixedly connected to one side of each fixing block 2061. A support block is fixedly connected to one end of each first support rod 2062. A second support rod 2063 is fixedly connected to each support block. A camera module 2064 is fixedly connected to each second support rod 2063. The camera module 2064 moves synchronously with the robotic arm 102 and is used to identify image information of the board material. The camera module 2064 communicates with a separate host computer, which identifies information based on the camera module 2064. Other image information determines the size of the board to control whether the adsorption area of ​​the fixed suction cup 203 is within the range of the raw material board on the raw material table, effectively improving the board feeding efficiency. The mounting frame 201 is installed at the bottom of the robotic arm 102 and moves synchronously with the movement of the robotic arm 102. The flip suction cup is used to flip the board in use, and the fixed suction cup 203 is used to pick up the board in use. The flip suction cup can be used for splitting and picking up boards smaller than 3mm, and the fixed suction cup 203 is used to pick up the board, thereby ensuring the fixing effect of boards of different sizes.

[0027] The camera module 2064 moves synchronously with the robotic arm 102 on the X-axis via the bracket 204. The bracket 204 ensures a certain distance between the camera module 2064 and the robotic arm 102, preventing the robotic arm 102 from affecting the field of view of the camera module 2064 and ensuring that the image recognition field of view of the camera module 2064 covers the motion trajectory on the robotic arm 102.

[0028] To connect and fix the various mechanisms, a main mechanism 1 is proposed, which consists of a gantry frame 101 and a robotic arm 102. The bottom of the robotic arm 102 is fixedly connected to a support 204. The support 204 moves synchronously with the movement of the robotic arm 102 in the X-axis direction. The robotic arm 102 is mounted on the gantry frame 101 and can move along the X-axis and Z-axis directions on the gantry frame 101.

[0029] To support the entire device, a support mechanism 3 is proposed, which consists of multiple columns 301 and two support beams 302. The columns 301 are fixedly connected by connecting beams 304, and a movable crossbeam 303 is installed between the two support beams 302. X-axis guide rails 305 are provided on the opposite side of the two support beams 302. The position of the detection mechanism 2 can be easily adjusted by moving the crossbeam 303. The multiple columns 301 support and fix the entire device, ensuring the stability of the device during operation.
