Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of aluminum plate processing technology, and in particular to an aluminum plate adsorption clamp. Background Technology

[0002] In traditional aluminum plate printing production lines, aluminum plates are typically manually moved onto a conveyor mechanism for automatic transfer to the next processing step. However, this method is highly dependent on manual labor and inefficient. To address these issues, existing aluminum plate printing production lines use robotic arms in conjunction with suction cups for automated loading. However, because the aluminum plates are stacked before loading, with release paper between them, the surface tension between the stacked plates and the release paper can cause them to adhere to each other. Consequently, during robotic loading, multiple aluminum plates may be transferred onto the production line simultaneously, requiring rework of the plates at the bottom and impacting production efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0036] 4. Aluminum sheet; Detailed Implementation

[0037] To explain in detail the technical content, objectives, and effects of this utility model, the following description is provided in conjunction with the embodiments and accompanying drawings.

[0038] Please refer to Figures 1-5 An aluminum plate adsorption clamp includes a first adsorption component 1, a second adsorption component 2, and a detection component 3 for detecting the thickness of the adsorbed item. The first adsorption component 1 is disposed at at least one end of the second adsorption component 2 along its length, and the first adsorption component 1 is movably connected to the second adsorption component 2 so that the first adsorption component 1 vibrates when the second adsorption component 2 moves relative to the first adsorption component 1. The detection component 3 is disposed on the adsorption surface of the second adsorption component 2 and is electrically connected to the first adsorption component 1. The relative position of the first adsorption component 1 along the length of the second adsorption component 2 is adjustable to adsorb aluminum plates of different lengths.

[0039] It is understandable that the detection component 3 is set up to detect whether multiple aluminum plates 4 are being adsorbed at the same time during the adsorption process of aluminum plates 4, and to control the first adsorption component 1 and the second adsorption component 2 to shake when multiple aluminum plates 4 are adsorbed, so that the excess aluminum plates 4 are shaken back into the stack, avoiding rework and improving production efficiency.

[0040] In some embodiments, the first adsorption assembly 1 includes a first suction cup 11, a movable beam 12, and a linear drive 13. At least two first suction cups 11 are sequentially arranged on the movable beam 12 along its length. One side of the movable beam 12 in its width direction is hinged to the first adsorption assembly 1. The fixed end of the linear drive 13 is connected to the first adsorption assembly 1, and the movable end of the linear drive 13 is hinged to the movable beam 12, causing the movable beam 12 to vibrate the first adsorption assembly 1. The linear drive 13 controls the movable beam 12 to rotate rapidly, causing the movable beam 12 to vibrate the second adsorption assembly 2, thereby shaking off excess aluminum plates 4 back into the stack, achieving single-piece adsorption of aluminum plates 4 and avoiding rework. Preferably, the linear drive 13 is a linear push rod or a linear cylinder.

[0041] In some embodiments, the first adsorption assembly 1 further includes a fixing frame 14; the movable beam 12 is hinged to the second adsorption assembly 2 via the fixing frame 14. The fixing frame 14 is provided to extend the length of the movable beam 12 to accommodate aluminum plates 4 of various sizes.

[0042] In some embodiments, a first adsorption component 1 is provided at each end of the second adsorption component 2 along its length. Providing two first adsorption components 1 can enhance the shaking effect and balance the forces at both ends of the second adsorption component 2.

[0043] In some embodiments, the second adsorption assembly 2 includes a bracket 21 and a second suction cup 22; all the second suction cups 22 are evenly distributed on the bracket 21; the movable beam 12 is distributed along the width direction of the bracket 21, and the fixed end of the linear drive member 13 is connected to the bracket 21.

[0044] In some embodiments, the adsorption surface of the first suction cup 11 is flush with the adsorption surface of the second suction cup 22 to ensure the adsorption stability of the aluminum plate 4.

[0045] In some embodiments, the adsorption surface of the first suction cup 11 and the adsorption surface of the second suction cup 22 protrude outward relative to one side of the support 21 in the thickness direction, so as to avoid interference between the support 21 and the aluminum plate 4.

[0046] In some embodiments, the detection surface of the detection component 3 can move relative to the plane where the adsorption surface of the first suction cup 11 is located. Since the adsorption forces of the first suction cup 11 and the second suction cup 22 are different, the position of the aluminum plate 4 after being adsorbed will be different. Therefore, the detection surface of the detection component 3 can move to adapt to the positional changes of the aluminum plate 4 caused by the changes in the adsorption force of the suction cup, and avoid interference with the aluminum plate 4.

[0047] In some embodiments, the detection component 3 includes an elastic telescopic component 31 and a sensing element 32; the sensing element 32 is connected to one side of the second adsorption component 2 in the thickness direction via the elastic telescopic component 31, so that the sensing element 32 can move in the thickness direction of the second adsorption component 2. Preferably, the sensing element 32 is an ultrasonic sensor, and four elastic telescopic components 31 are provided, and the four elastic telescopic components 31 are evenly distributed along the circumference of the sensing element 32. The arrangement of the elastic telescopic components 31 is used to enable the sensing element 32 to adaptively adjust its position in the thickness direction of the support 21 to adapt to the position of the aluminum plate 4.

[0048] In some embodiments, the elastic telescopic component 31 includes a movable rod 311 and an elastic element 312; the elastic element 312 is sleeved on the movable rod 311; one end of the movable rod 311 is slidably connected to the second adsorption component 2, and the other end of the movable rod 311 is connected to the sensing element 32. Preferably, the elastic element 312 is a spring. Specifically, the second adsorption component 2 is provided with a limiting plate 23, the movable rod 311 is movably connected to the limiting plate 23, and a limiting element 33 is provided at the end of the movable rod 311 away from the sensing element 32, so that the movable rod 311 remains connected to the limiting plate 23.

Further, a movable telescopic frame 23 is provided inside the bracket 21, and the movable beam 12 is slidably connected to the bracket 21 through the movable telescopic frame 23 to adjust the relative position of the movable beam 12 in the length direction of the bracket 21. Specifically, the movable telescopic frame 23 includes a frame body 231 and a guide rail assembly 232. The frame body 231 is slidably connected to the bracket 21 through the guide rail assembly 232, and the movable beam 12 is hinged to the frame body 231. Correspondingly, when the relative position of the movable beam 12 in the length direction of the bracket 21 changes, the position of the fixed frame 14 in the length direction of the bracket 21 should also be adjusted accordingly.

[0054] In this embodiment, the adsorption surface of the first suction cup 11 and the adsorption surface of the second suction cup 22 protrude outward relative to one side of the support 21 in the thickness direction, and the adsorption surface of the first suction cup 11 is flush with the adsorption surface of the second suction cup 22.

[0055] In this embodiment, the detection surface of the detection component 3 can move relative to the plane where the adsorption surface of the first suction cup 11 is located.
