Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of lifting devices, and in particular to a Y-type lifting device for suspension lines. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, during the automated robotic painting process on suspended lines, the workpieces must maintain a consistent incoming posture (the workpieces must not rotate) during robotic painting, while allowing free rotation for manual touch-up painting. This often necessitates the design of special lifting devices, such as mushroom-head limiting mechanisms. However, these devices have the following drawbacks:

[0003] 1. When manually loading materials, the workpiece needs to be manually rotated to a specific posture. During the forward movement of the conveyor belt, the mushroom head limiting mechanism is used to ensure the consistency of the workpiece's posture.

[0004] 2. At the manual paint touch-up station, when the workpiece is manually rotated, the mushroom head's limiting effect and its special concave-convex mating structure make manual rotation easier when the workpiece is small, but more difficult when the workpiece is large, which is not conducive to manual touch-up spraying.

[0005] 3. Due to the harsh spraying environment, the mushroom head limiting mechanism is prone to paint adhesion, which affects its stability. Utility Model Content

[0006] This application provides a Y-type suspension hanger, which solves the technical problem that in the prior art, when manually loading materials, the workpiece needs to be manually rotated to a specific posture. At the same time, for workpieces with large mass, manual rotation becomes difficult, which is not conducive to manual respraying operations.

[0007] The technical solution adopted in the embodiments of this application is as follows:

[0008] A Y-shaped suspension rod includes a suspension line, a lifting point, a Y-shaped suspension rod, a hook, a limiting baffle, and a lever; the lever is disposed on the suspension line; two sets of limiting baffles are installed on the suspension line symmetrically arranged with respect to the lever; the lifting point slides in the inner groove of the suspension line; the Y-shaped suspension rod is hooked onto the lifting point; the top end of the hook is hooked onto the Y-shaped suspension rod; the bottom end of the hook is used to hook a workpiece.

[0009] A further technical solution is as follows: the Y-shaped lifting device includes a lifting plate, a turntable, a shift fork, and a straight limiting rod; the lifting plate is hooked onto the lifting point; the turntable is rotatably connected to the lifting plate; the top of the hook is hooked onto the bottom of the turntable; the straight limiting rod is vertically arranged on the turntable; the shift fork is arranged on the turntable, and there is an angle between the shift fork and the straight limiting rod.

[0010] One or more technical solutions provided in the embodiments of this application have at least the following technical effects or advantages:

[0011] 1. Utilizing a suspension line, lifting points, Y-shaped hangers, hooks, limit baffles, and levers, the system achieves automatic calibration of the workpiece from any initial posture to a uniform orientation through the mechanical linkage of the limit baffles and levers, eliminating the need for manual intervention. Limiting and flipping actions are completed synchronously during the movement of the suspension line, ensuring efficient and continuous operation at the painting station. The robot forcibly locks its posture during the painting stage, and the limit is released with a single click during manual touch-up painting, balancing automation and manual operation needs. The purely mechanical structure design prevents electrical component failure due to painting contamination, improving long-term stability. Attached Figure Description

[0017] This application provides a Y-type suspension hanger, which solves the technical problem that in the prior art, when manually loading materials, the workpiece needs to be manually rotated to a specific posture. At the same time, for workpieces with large mass, manual rotation becomes difficult, which is not conducive to manual respraying operations.

[0018] The technical solution in this application is to solve the above problems, and the overall approach is as follows:

[0019] To better understand the above technical solutions, the following will provide a detailed explanation of the technical solutions in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0020] A Y-type suspension rod, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the system includes a suspension line 1, a lifting point 2, a Y-shaped lifting device 3, a hook 4, a limiting baffle 5, and a lever 6. The lever 6 is mounted on the suspension line 1. Two sets of limiting baffles 5 are installed on the suspension line 1, symmetrically arranged with the lever 6. The lifting point 2 slides within the inner groove of the suspension line 1. The Y-shaped lifting device 3 is attached to the lifting point 2. The top of the hook 4 is attached to the Y-shaped lifting device 3. The bottom of the hook 4 is used to attach a workpiece.

[0021] The Y-type lifting device 3 includes a lifting plate 31, a turntable 32, a fork 33, and a straight limiting rod 34. The lifting plate 31 is attached to the lifting point 2. The turntable 32 is rotatably connected to the lifting plate 31. The top of the hook 4 is attached to the bottom of the turntable 32. The straight limiting rod 34 is vertically mounted on the turntable 32. The fork 33 is mounted on the turntable 32, and there is an angle between the fork 33 and the straight limiting rod 34.

[0022] The lever 6 is fixed to the suspension line 1; two sets of limiting baffles 5 are symmetrically installed on the suspension line 1 on both sides of the lever 6; the lifting point 2 is slidably set in the inner groove of the suspension line 1; the Y-shaped lifting device 3 is suspended by the lifting point 2, and includes a lifting plate 31, a turntable 32, a fork 33, and a straight limiting rod 34, wherein the lifting plate 31 is connected to the lifting point 2, the turntable 32 is rotatably installed below the lifting plate 31, the top of the hook 4 is hooked to the bottom of the turntable 32, the straight limiting rod 34 is vertically fixed to the edge of the turntable 32, and the fork 33 is inclined on the turntable 32, forming an angle with the straight limiting rod 34. The bottom end of the hook 4 is used to suspend the workpiece.

[0023] Operating procedures:

[0024] Loading and posture pre-adjustment: The workpiece is suspended at the bottom of the hook 4 and moves with the suspension line 1; when the workpiece moves to the area of ​​the limit baffle 5, the straight limit rod 34 contacts the limit baffle 5, forcing the turntable 32 to rotate, so that the output shaft of the workpiece is uniformly oriented in the preset direction.

[0025] Automatic attitude calibration:

[0026] If the orientation of the workpiece needs to be adjusted (such as 180° rotation), the suspension line 1 moves the workpiece to the position of the lever 6. The lever 6 contacts the shift fork 33, pushing the turntable 32 to rotate and causing the workpiece to rotate. After rotation, the straight limit rod 34 cooperates with the limit baffle 5 again to lock the orientation of the workpiece output shaft.

[0027] Robot painting stage:

[0028] The workpiece enters the robot spraying station in a uniform posture. The straight limit bar 34 keeps in contact with the limit baffle 5 to prevent the turntable 32 from rotating and ensure that the workpiece posture is fixed during the spraying process.

[0029] Manual touch-up spraying stage:

[0030] After the spraying is completed, the workpiece is moved out of the area of ​​the limiting baffle 5, and the turntable 32 is released from the limit; when manually touching up the spraying, the workpiece is rotated directly by hand, and the turntable 32 rotates freely, which facilitates multi-angle touch-up operation.

[0031] Beneficial effects:

[0032] Thanks to the use of a suspension line 1, lifting points 2, a Y-shaped lifting device 3, hooks 4, limit baffles 5, and levers 6, the workpiece can be automatically calibrated from any initial posture to a uniform orientation through the mechanical linkage of the limit baffles 5 and levers 6, without manual intervention. The limiting and flipping actions are completed synchronously during the movement of the suspension line, ensuring efficient and continuous operation at the painting station. The robot's posture is forcibly locked during the painting stage, and the limit is released with a single click during manual touch-up painting, balancing the needs of automation and manual operation. The purely mechanical structure design avoids electrical component failure due to painting contamination, improving long-term stability.
