Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of rapid feeding mechanisms, specifically relating to a rapid feeding mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] A rapid feeding mechanism is a device used in automated production lines to improve the efficiency and speed of material handling. It uses mechanical or electrical systems to quickly and accurately deliver raw materials or parts to processing or assembly positions, reducing manual intervention and waiting time, thereby improving production efficiency and product quality. This mechanism is widely used in manufacturing, packaging, and logistics systems and can adapt to different types of materials and production needs.

[0003] When traditional mechanisms supply materials between multiple workstations, the feeding efficiency is often low due to the mutual influence of the cycle times between the workstations. Furthermore, the air and electrical circuits are complex to arrange, and the use of a rotary indexing table can easily lead to tangled air pipes and wires, increasing the risk of failure. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a rapid feeding mechanism to solve the problems mentioned in the background art, such as the low feeding efficiency caused by the mutual influence of the cycle time between multiple workstations in traditional mechanisms, the complex layout of air and electrical circuits, and the easy entanglement of air pipes and wires caused by the use of a rotating indexing table, which increases the risk of failure.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a rapid feeding mechanism, including a pneumatic indexing table, a pneumatic-electric slip ring installed at the front end of the pneumatic indexing table, and telescopic slide cylinders installed at the four outer corners of the pneumatic-electric slip ring. The telescopic slide cylinder located above the pneumatic-electric slip ring is the product removal station, the telescopic slide cylinder located at the right end of the pneumatic-electric slip ring is the material appearance inspection station, and the telescopic slide cylinder located at the lower end of the pneumatic-electric slip ring... The cylinder is a material handling station. A gripper cylinder is installed on the outer end face of the telescopic slide cylinder, and a product gripper is installed on the other end of the gripper cylinder. A tooling number detection sensor is installed on the right end of the pneumatic indexing table. A back plate is installed at the rear end of the pneumatic indexing table. A Z-axis position adjustment component is installed at the upper end of the back plate. A base plate is installed at the lower end of the pneumatic indexing table. X-axis adjustment components are installed on the upper end of the base plate at the left and right sides.

[0006] Preferably, a support frame is installed at the rear end of the back plate, and the support frame is installed at the upper end of the base plate, where a plurality of through holes are provided.

[0007] Preferably, the tooling number detection sensor detects the type and position of the workpiece to ensure that the required tooling matches the workpiece.

[0008] Preferably, the X-direction adjustment component is finely adjusted to ensure the accurate position of the workpiece in the X-axis direction.

[0009] Preferably, the pneumatic-electric slip ring transmits the air source and electrical signal, enabling the pneumatic and electrical systems to operate normally during movement.

[0010] Preferably, the telescopic slide cylinder drives the slide to extend or retract, moving the gripper cylinder and product gripper to the target position.

[0011] Preferably, the gripper cylinder controls the opening and closing action of the product gripper to complete the gripping or releasing of the workpiece.

[0012] Preferably, the Z-axis position adjustment component adjusts the Z-axis position of the gripper according to the height requirements of the workpiece.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides a rapid feeding mechanism, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] This mechanism has two outstanding features. First, it enables rapid material feeding. With four workstations, inspection and non-compliant material handling can be performed at different stations without affecting each other's cycle time, thus improving feeding efficiency. Second, the mechanism is simple and occupies less space. Under normal operating conditions, the pneumatic and electrical circuits in the module must be connected to the electrical control cabinet through the indexing table. This module has many pneumatic and electrical circuits, and the air pipes and wires cannot be directly connected to the electrical cabinet through the rotating indexing table because the rotation of the indexing table would cause the air pipes and wires to become entangled. The use of pneumatic-electric slip rings solves this problem. The pneumatic-electric slip ring can simultaneously serve as a connection joint for multiple pneumatic and electrical circuits. Furthermore, the pneumatic-electric slip ring consists of a fixed part and a rotating part. When the rotating indexing table rotates, the fixed part connects to the rotating indexing table, thus preventing the air pipes and wires from becoming entangled during the rotation of the pneumatic indexing table.

A pneumatic-electric slip ring 4 is installed at the front end of the pneumatic indexing table 1. Telescopic slide cylinders 5 are installed at the four outer corners of the pneumatic-electric slip ring 4. The telescopic slide cylinder 5 located above the pneumatic-electric slip ring 4 is the product removal station 11; the telescopic slide cylinder 5 located at the right end of the pneumatic-electric slip ring 4 is the material appearance inspection station 10; and the telescopic slide cylinder 5 located at the lower end of the pneumatic-electric slip ring 4 is the material picking station 9. A gripper cylinder 6 is installed at the outer end face of the sliding table cylinder 5, and a product gripper 7 is installed at the other end of the gripper cylinder 6. A tooling number detection sensor 2 is installed at the right end of the pneumatic indexing table 1. A back plate 15 is installed at the rear end of the pneumatic indexing table 1. A Z-axis position adjustment component 8 is installed at the upper end of the back plate 15. A base plate 12 is installed at the lower end of the pneumatic indexing table 1. An X-axis adjustment component 3 is installed at the upper end of the base plate 12 on both the left and right sides.

[0024] The pneumatic indexing table 1 transports the workpiece to the designated processing or assembly position, achieving precise positioning of multiple stations through indexing rotation. The tooling number detection sensor 2 identifies the current tooling or product, ensuring that the feeding mechanism can perform corresponding operations according to the product type or tooling number. The X-direction adjustment component 3 adjusts the position of the feeding mechanism in the X direction according to the specific position requirements of the product or tooling, ensuring alignment with the target. The pneumatic-electric slip ring 4 provides air and electrical signals to the rapid feeding mechanism, ensuring that all components can work normally and simultaneously achieving continuous power supply to the rotating components. The telescopic slide cylinder 5 drives the slide to extend or retract, moving the gripper cylinder 6 and gripper to the target position, ready to grip or release the workpiece. The gripper cylinder 6 controls the opening and closing action of the product gripper 7 to complete the gripping or release of the workpiece. The product gripper 7 accurately grips the workpiece according to its shape and size and maintains stability, preventing the workpiece from shifting or falling during transportation. The Z-direction position adjustment component 8 adjusts the Z-direction position of the gripper according to the height requirements of the workpiece, ensuring that the workpiece can be accurately placed or removed.

[0025] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a support frame 14 is installed at the rear end of the back plate 15, and the support frame 14 is installed at the upper end of the base plate 12. Multiple through holes 13 are provided at the upper end of the base plate 12. The tooling number detection sensor 2 detects the type and position of the workpiece to ensure that the required tooling matches the workpiece. The X-direction adjustment component 3 performs fine adjustments to ensure the accurate position of the workpiece in the X-axis direction. The pneumatic-electric slip ring 4 transmits air and electrical signals to ensure the normal operation of the pneumatic and electrical systems during movement. The telescopic slide cylinder 5 drives the slide to extend or retract, moving the gripper cylinder 6 and the product gripper 7 to the target position. The gripper cylinder 6 controls the opening and closing action of the product gripper 7 to complete the gripping or releasing of the workpiece. The Z-direction position adjustment component 8 adjusts the Z-direction position of the gripper according to the height requirements of the workpiece.

[0026] It enables rapid material feeding because it has four workstations. Inspection and non-compliant material processing can be carried out at different workstations. The cycle time between each workstation does not affect each other, improving the efficiency of material feeding. This module has a lot of air and electrical circuits. Air pipes and wires cannot be directly connected to the electrical cabinet through the rotating indexing table because the rotation of the indexing table will cause the air pipes and wires to become entangled. The use of the pneumatic-electric slip ring 4 solves this problem. The pneumatic-electric slip ring 4 can simultaneously serve as a connection joint for multiple air and electrical circuits. The pneumatic-electric slip ring 4 is divided into a fixed part and a rotating part. When the rotating indexing table rotates, the fixed part is connected to the rotating indexing table.
