Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of keyboard manufacturing technology, and in particular relates to a keyboard finished product picking device. Background Technology

[0002] Keyboard component handling equipment, as a key automated device on the keyboard production line, is mainly responsible for automatically picking up, transporting, and accurately placing finished keyboards in the keyboard production process. With the continuous progress and innovation of automation technology, this type of equipment plays an increasingly important role in the keyboard manufacturing industry. They not only greatly improve production efficiency and reduce labor costs, but also ensure the safety and integrity of finished keyboards during the handling process.

[0003] The keyboard assembly handling equipment currently on the market typically includes the following core components in its structural design: a sturdy frame as the supporting foundation for the entire equipment; a flexible and movable robotic arm for performing specific picking and placing actions; and a clamping system responsible for holding the finished keyboard.

[0004] However, although existing equipment meets the needs of automated production to a certain extent, it still reveals some shortcomings that cannot be ignored in practical applications:

[0005] First, existing keyboard assembly removal equipment uses relatively simple clamp designs, mainly relying on rigid clamping to fix the keyboards. While this design is simple in structure and easy to operate, the control of clamping force is often not precise enough, which can easily scratch or damage the keyboard casing during clamping, thus affecting the final product quality. Second, existing keyboard assembly removal equipment can only clamp the keyboards from both sides. However, due to the limited thickness of the keyboards, the clamping force from only clamping the sides is limited, which can easily cause the keyboards to fall off during movement. This not only increases safety hazards in the production process but may also damage the keyboards and increase production costs.

[0006] Therefore, it is essential to invent a device for retrieving finished keyboard parts. Utility Model Content

[0007] The purpose of this invention is to provide a keyboard finished product retrieval device to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0008] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0009] This utility model relates to a keyboard finished product handling device, comprising a fixed frame, a limiting frame, a lead screw, a motor, a sliding frame, a first guide post, a cylinder, a clamp, and a second guide post. The upper end of the fixed frame is fixed to the limiting frame by bolts, and the lead screw is rotatably mounted inside the limiting frame via a support bearing. One end of the lead screw is fixed to the output end of the motor, and the motor base is fixed to the limiting frame by bolts. The first guide post is fixed inside the limiting frame by bolts, and the sliding frame is slidably mounted on the outer side of the first guide post. The sliding frame is connected to the lead screw by thread engagement. The cylinder is fixed inside the sliding frame by bolts, and the output end of the cylinder is fixed to the clamp by bolts. The second guide post is fixed to the upper side of the clamp by bolts, and the second guide post is slidably connected to the sliding frame.

[0010] Furthermore, the clamp includes a frame, clamping plates, a first electric push rod, soft pads, rotating frames, and a traction mechanism. The upper side of the frame is fixed to the cylinder output end by bolts, and two clamping plates are slidably installed inside the frame. The outer sides of the clamping plates are all fixed to the frame by the first electric push rod, and soft pads are fixed to the inner sides of the clamping plates by screws. Several protrusions are fixed to the outer sides of the soft pads. Two rotating frames are rotatably installed on the outer side of the frame, and both ends of the rotating frames are connected to the frame by the traction mechanism. This configuration can clamp the finished keyboard.

[0011] Furthermore, the traction mechanism includes a second electric push rod, a lifting block, a rocker arm, and a sleeve. The second electric push rod is fixed to the frame by bolts, and the output end of the second electric push rod is fixed to the lifting block by bolts. Both ends of the lifting block are hinged and rotatably mounted with rockers. The other end of each rocker arm is hinged and rotatably mounted with a sleeve, and each sleeve is fixed to a corresponding rotating frame. This arrangement facilitates the rotation frame to lift the finished keyboard.

[0012] Furthermore, airbags are fixed to the lower outer side of the rotating frame, and the airbags are filled with gas. This arrangement can prevent the clamping force of the clamping plate on the finished keyboard from failing due to the compression of the rotating frame.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] This invention features a design that securely clamps the keyboard using a first electric push rod and a clamping plate. A soft pad is added to the inside of the clamping plate to effectively prevent scratches on the keyboard casing during clamping. Secondly, a traction mechanism drives the rotation of the rotating frame, allowing its lower end to rotate to the underside of the frame, lifting the keyboard and further enhancing clamping stability. This prevents the keyboard from falling off during transport, significantly improving transport safety. Furthermore, the airbags on the outer side of the rotating frame ensure that when the frame rotates to the underside of the keyboard, the airbags make initial contact, providing cushioning through their softness and elasticity, preventing hard contact between the rotating frame and the keyboard, and effectively protecting the keyboard from damage.

Detailed Implementation

[0021] 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 skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0022] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "upper", "middle", "outer", "inner", "around", etc., which indicate orientation or positional relationship, are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the components or elements referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.

[0023] Please see Figures 1 to 3 As shown, this utility model is a keyboard finished product handling device, including a fixed frame 1, a limiting frame 2, a lead screw 3, a motor 4, a sliding frame 5, a first guide post 6, a cylinder 7, a clamp 8, and a second guide post 9. The upper end of the fixed frame 1 is fixed to the limiting frame 2 by bolts, and the lead screw 3 is rotatably mounted inside the limiting frame 2 through a support bearing; one end of the lead screw 3 is fixed to the output end of the motor 4, and the base of the motor 4 is fixed to the limiting frame 2 by bolts; the first guide post 6 is fixed inside the limiting frame 2 by bolts, and the sliding frame 5 is slidably mounted on the outer side of the first guide post 6, and the sliding frame 5 is connected to the lead screw 3 by thread engagement; the cylinder 7 is fixed inside the sliding frame 5 by bolts, and the output end of the cylinder 7 is fixed to the clamp 8 by bolts; the second guide post 9 is fixed to the upper side of the clamp 8 by bolts, and the second guide post 9 is slidably connected to the sliding frame 5.

[0024] like Figure 2 As shown, the clamp 8 includes a frame 81, clamping plates 82, a first electric push rod 83, soft pads 84, rotating frames 85, and a traction mechanism 86. The upper side of the frame 81 is fixed to the output end of the cylinder 7 by bolts, and two clamping plates 82 are slidably installed inside the frame 81. The outer sides of the clamping plates 82 are all fixed to the frame 81 by the first electric push rod 83, and the inner sides of the clamping plates 82 are all fixed with soft pads 84 by screws. Several protrusions are fixed to the outer sides of the soft pads 84. Two rotating frames 85 are rotatably installed on the outer side of the frame 81. Both ends of the rotating frame 85 are connected to the frame 81 via the traction mechanism 86. In use, the first electric push rod 83 drives the two clamping plates 82 to clamp the finished keyboard. The soft pad 84 prevents the clamping plates 82 from scratching the keyboard shell. In addition, after the finished keyboard is clamped, the traction mechanism 86 drives the rotating frame 85 to rotate accordingly, so that the lower end of the rotating frame 85 rotates to the outer side of the frame 81, thereby lifting the upper side of the finished keyboard.

[0025] like Figure 3As shown, the traction mechanism 86 includes a second electric push rod 861, a lifting block 862, a rocker arm 863, and a sleeve 864. The second electric push rod 861 is fixed to the frame 81 by bolts, and the lifting block 862 is fixed to the output end of the second electric push rod 861 by bolts. Both ends of the lifting block 862 are hinged and rotatably mounted with the rocker arm 863. The other end of each rocker arm 863 is hinged and rotatably mounted with a sleeve 864, which is fixed to a corresponding rotating frame 85. When the keyboard... After the finished product is clamped, the lifting block 862 can be raised by the second electric push rod 861, which in turn drives the rotating frame 85 to rotate by the rocker arm 853. This causes the lower end of the rotating frame 85 to rotate to the lower side of the frame 81, supporting the lower side of the finished keyboard. Furthermore, when the finished keyboard is being clamped or put down, the second electric push rod 861 can be moved down, causing the lower end of the rotating frame 85 to rotate to both sides of the frame 81, thus preventing the rotating frame 85 from affecting the picking and putting down of the finished keyboard.

[0026] Specifically, airbags 87 are fixed to the lower outer side of the rotating frame 85. The airbags 87 are filled with gas. When the rotating frame 85 rotates to the lower side of the keyboard product, the airbags 87 will come into contact with the keyboard product first. Through the soft contact between the airbags 87 and the keyboard product, the clamping force of the clamping plate 82 on the keyboard product can be prevented from failing due to the squeezing of the rotating frame 85.

[0027] Please see Figure 1-3 As shown, this utility model is a keyboard finished product picking device. Its working principle is as follows: When in use, firstly, the clamp 8 is moved to the upper part of the keyboard processing equipment by the cooperation of the motor 4 and the lead screw 3. Then, the clamp 8 is driven to move down by the cylinder 7 and the keyboard finished product is picked up by the clamp 8. Then, the clamp 8 is driven to reset by the cylinder 7 and the clamp 8 is moved to the keyboard finished product placement position by the cooperation of the motor 4 and the lead screw 3. Then, the clamp 8 is driven to move down again by the cylinder 7 to place the keyboard finished product.
