Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mirror plate processing technology, and in particular to a high-precision error-proof positioning device for pressure vessel mirror plates. Background Technology

[0002] Pressure vessels are generally closed containers that withstand gas or liquid pressure internally or externally and have high safety requirements. They are mainly used in production processes such as reaction, heat transfer, and mass transfer, or to store and transport gases or liquefied gases under pressure.

[0003] In existing technology, the production of pressure vessel lenses typically relies on conveyor belts for material feeding. However, sometimes products are not fed into the correct position, even though the sensor has already detected the presence of material. Upon receiving the material presence signal, the sensor transmits the signal synchronously to the conveyor belt and the next process step. The conveyor belt stops operating upon receiving the material presence signal, thus preventing further feeding and positioning. Simultaneously, the material handling operation of the next process begins. Therefore, deviations in conveyor positioning can lead to placement errors in the next process, resulting in defects. Furthermore, the conveyor belt lacks error-proofing measures, leading to multiple pieces stacking, which may cause product defects and mold damage. Utility Model Content

[0004] This utility model mainly provides a high-precision error-proof positioning device for pressure vessel mirror plates, which facilitates improved placement efficiency and prevents placement deviations.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model adopts the following technical solution: a high-precision foolproof positioning device for pressure vessel mirror plates, comprising: a worktable, a material sensor on the top of the worktable, two fixed plates fixedly installed on the top of the worktable, an electric telescopic rod fixedly installed on the outer wall of the fixed plates, the telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod passing through the fixed plates and fixedly installed with a movable stop block, two sliding grooves opened on the top of the worktable, a second threaded rod rotatably installed inside the sliding grooves, one end of the second threaded rod passing through the worktable and fixedly installed with a handle, a slider threadedly connected to the outer wall of the second threaded rod, a fixed stop block fixedly installed on the top of the slider, a placement plate fixedly installed on the top of the worktable, and a foolproof sensor fixedly installed on the side wall of the placement plate.

[0006] Preferably, a conveyor seat is provided on the outside of the worktable, and a conveyor belt is provided on the top of the conveyor seat. The conveyor belt is used to transport the mirror plate to the bottom of the vacuum suction cup.

[0007] Preferably, two support plates are symmetrically installed on the top of the conveyor seat. A cylinder is fixedly installed on the opposite side of each of the two support plates. The output end of the cylinder passes through the support plate and is fixedly installed with a U-shaped seat. Multiple evenly distributed rollers are rotatably installed inside the U-shaped seat. When the operator starts the two cylinders at the same time, the output end of the cylinder pushes the U-shaped seat to move. The two U-shaped seats move closer to each other until the rollers on both sides contact the two sides of the mirror plate. At this time, the mirror plate is in the middle of the conveyor belt, which can prevent the mirror plate from being misplaced during transportation.

[0008] Preferably, two support frames are fixedly installed on the top of the workbench, and an adjustment seat is fixedly installed on the top of the two support frames. A first threaded rod is rotatably installed inside the adjustment seat, and a motor is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the adjustment seat. The output end of the motor is fixedly connected to one end of the first threaded rod, and a sliding plate is threadedly connected to the outer wall of the first threaded rod. When the operator starts the motor, the first threaded rod rotates, and the sliding plate moves along the inside of the adjustment seat.

[0009] Preferably, a hydraulic cylinder is fixedly installed on the top of the slide plate, and the output end of the hydraulic cylinder passes through the slide plate and is fixedly installed on the storage plate. Two vacuum suction cups are provided at the bottom of the storage plate. When the operator starts the hydraulic cylinder, the output end of the hydraulic cylinder stretches and pushes the storage plate down. When the vacuum suction cups come into contact with the mirror plate, the mirror plate is attracted to the vacuum suction cups.

[0010] Preferably, the top of the workbench is provided with two scale grooves to facilitate the operator in controlling the distance the fixed stop moves.

[0011] Preferably, the outer wall of the slider is in contact with the inner wall of the groove to prevent the slider from rotating when the second threaded rod rotates.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and positive effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0013] 1. In this utility model, when the mirror plate falls onto the worktable, the operator activates two electric telescopic rods. The telescopic ends of the electric telescopic rods extend, pushing two movable blocks to move. The two movable blocks contact the two sides of the mirror plate respectively, pushing the other two sides of the mirror plate to contact the two fixed blocks. At this time, the mirror plate moves above the material sensor. Since the parameters of the foolproof sensor are set to be less than twice the thickness of the product, if one or more mirror plates are stacked, the foolproof sensor will alarm to remind the operator. When the mirror plate moves above the material sensor, the robotic arm of the next process can remove the mirror plate and proceed to the next process. This can prevent product defects and mold damage.

[0014] 2. In this utility model, when in use, the operator starts two cylinders at the same time. The output end of the cylinder pushes the U-shaped seat to move. The two U-shaped seats move closer to each other until the rollers on both sides contact the sides of the mirror plate. At this time, the mirror plate is in the middle of the conveyor belt. This can prevent the mirror plate from being placed off-center during transportation, thus affecting the positioning. Attached Figure Description

It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0021] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed in the following specification.

[0022] Please see Figures 1-4This utility model provides a technical solution: a high-precision anti-foolproof positioning device for pressure vessel mirror plates, comprising: a workbench 1, a material sensor 9 on the top of the workbench 1, two fixed plates 12 fixedly installed on the top of the workbench 1, an electric telescopic rod 13 fixedly installed on the outer wall of the fixed plate 12, the telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod 13 passing through the fixed plate 12 and fixedly installed with a movable stop 14, two sliding grooves 15 opened on the top of the workbench 1, a second threaded rod 16 rotatably installed inside the sliding groove 15, one end of the second threaded rod 16 passing through the workbench 1 and fixedly installed with a handle 17, a slider 18 threadedly connected to the outer wall of the second threaded rod 16, a fixed stop 19 fixedly installed on the top of the slider 18, a placement plate 10 fixedly installed on the top of the workbench 1, and an anti-foolproof sensor 11 fixedly installed on the side wall of the placement plate 10.

[0023] like Figure 1 As shown, a conveyor seat 2 is provided on the outside of the workbench 1, and a conveyor belt 3 is provided on the top of the conveyor seat 2. The conveyor belt 3 is used to transport the mirror plate to the bottom of the vacuum suction cup 23.

[0024] like Figure 4 As shown, two support plates 24 are symmetrically installed on the top of the conveyor seat 2. A cylinder 25 is fixedly installed on the opposite side of each of the two support plates 24. The output end of the cylinder 25 passes through the support plate 24 and is fixedly installed with a U-shaped seat 26. Multiple evenly distributed rollers 27 are rotatably installed inside the U-shaped seat 26. When the operator starts the two cylinders 25 at the same time, the output end of the cylinder 25 pushes the U-shaped seat 26 to move. The two U-shaped seats 26 move closer to each other until the rollers 27 on both sides contact the two sides of the mirror plate. At this time, the mirror plate is in the middle of the conveyor belt 3, which can prevent the mirror plate from being placed off-center during transportation.

[0025] like Figure 1 As shown, two support frames 4 are fixedly installed on the top of the workbench 1. An adjusting seat 5 is fixedly installed on the top of the two support frames 4. A first threaded rod 6 is rotatably installed inside the adjusting seat 5. A motor 7 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the adjusting seat 5. The output end of the motor 7 is fixedly connected to one end of the first threaded rod 6. A sliding plate 8 is threadedly connected to the outer wall of the first threaded rod 6. When the operator starts the motor 7, the first threaded rod 6 rotates, and the sliding plate 8 moves along the inside of the adjusting seat 5.

[0026] like Figure 3 As shown, a hydraulic cylinder 21 is fixedly installed on the top of the slide plate 8. The output end of the hydraulic cylinder 21 passes through the slide plate 8 and is fixedly installed on the storage plate 22. Two vacuum suction cups 23 are provided at the bottom of the storage plate 22. When the operator starts the hydraulic cylinder 21, the output end of the hydraulic cylinder 21 stretches and pushes the storage plate 22 down. When the vacuum suction cups 23 come into contact with the mirror plate, the mirror plate is attracted to the vacuum suction cups 23.

[0027] like Figure 2As shown, the top of the workbench 1 is provided with two scale grooves 20, which makes it convenient for the staff to control the distance of movement of the fixed stop 19.

[0028] like Figure 2 As shown, the outer wall of the slider 18 is in contact with the inner wall of the groove 15 to prevent the slider 18 from rotating when the second threaded rod 16 rotates.

[0029] The operating method and working principle of this device are as follows: During use, the operator simultaneously activates two cylinders 25. The output ends of cylinders 25 push the U-shaped seats 26 to move, bringing the two U-shaped seats 26 closer together until the rollers 27 on both sides contact the sides of the mirror plate. At this point, the mirror plate is in the middle of the conveyor belt 3, thus preventing the mirror plate from shifting during transport and affecting its positioning. When the mirror plate moves below the vacuum suction cup 23, the operator activates the hydraulic cylinder 21. The output end of the hydraulic cylinder 21 extends, pushing the storage plate 22 downward. When the vacuum suction cup 23 contacts the mirror plate, the mirror plate is attracted to it. The operator then activates the hydraulic cylinder 21, raising the mirror plate. Simultaneously, the operator activates the motor 7, causing the first threaded rod 6 to rotate, and the sliding plate 8 moves along the inside of the adjusting seat 5. When the mirror plate moves above the worktable 1, the operator activates the hydraulic cylinder 21, lowering the mirror plate onto the worktable 1. At this point, the operator activates the two electric telescopic rods 13. Extending the telescopic end of 3 pushes the two movable stops 14 to move, and the two movable stops 14 contact the two sides of the mirror plate respectively, pushing the other two sides of the mirror plate to contact the two fixed stops 19. At this time, the mirror plate moves above the material sensor 9. Since the parameters of the foolproof sensor 11 are set to be less than twice the material thickness of the product, if two or more mirror plates are stacked, the foolproof sensor 11 will alarm to remind the operator. When the mirror plate moves above the material sensor 9, the robotic arm of the next process can remove the mirror plate and proceed to the next process, thus preventing product defects and mold damage. Furthermore, the operator can rotate the handle 17, which rotates the second threaded rod 16, thereby moving the slider 18 and causing the two fixed stops 19 to move. In this way, the position of the fixed stops 19 can be adjusted according to the diameter of the mirror plate.

[0030] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any other way. Any person skilled in the art may make changes or modifications to the above-disclosed technical content to create equivalent embodiments for application in other fields. However, any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model without departing from the technical solution of the present utility model shall still fall within the protection scope of the technical solution of the present utility model.
