Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of tray assemblies, specifically an auxiliary fixture for an automatic tray assemblies. Background Technology
[0002] An automatic tray-stacking machine is a device that automatically places items (such as food, parts, etc.) onto plates or trays according to certain rules. It is widely used in food, parts manufacturing, logistics warehousing, and many other fields, significantly improving production efficiency and placement accuracy while saving labor costs. Automatic tray-stacking machines can quickly and accurately complete the placement of items, significantly shortening the time required for traying and thus increasing overall production speed. For example, on an electronic parts production line, a tray-stacking machine can quickly and neatly arrange a large number of small electronic parts on trays, greatly improving efficiency compared to manual tray-stacking. Furthermore, through a precise control system and mechanical structure, an automatic tray-stacking machine can ensure that the placement position, orientation, and spacing of each product are highly consistent, reducing human error. This is particularly important in the assembly of precision instruments, facilitating the smooth progress of subsequent processes and improving product quality. When using this device, clamps are needed to hold the materials before placement.
[0003] Application number CN202220050464.3 discloses an auxiliary fixture for an automatic tray-stacking machine. Its technical solution includes: a base plate and a support. Positioning pins are installed at the four corners of the upper surface of the base plate. Support rods are sleeved on the upper surface of the base plate outside the positioning pins. Support columns are installed at the bottom ends of the support rods. Telescopic columns are sleeved at the bottom center of the support columns. Suction cups are installed at the bottom of the telescopic columns. A bracket is installed on the outer surface of the positioning pins above the support rods. This utility model solves the problems of existing devices that often use multiple screws for individual fixing, making operation cumbersome and inconvenient during line changes. Furthermore, the suction cups have significant inertia during clamping, which cannot be buffered, easily causing trays to scatter and affecting the tray-stacking effect. This invention improves the adjustment efficiency of the fixture, thereby improving the line changeover efficiency of the production line.
[0004] Although the aforementioned utility model addresses the problems of existing devices that rely on multiple screws for individual fixing, resulting in cumbersome operation and poor usability during line change adjustments, and the inability to buffer the large inertia of the suction cup clamping motion when in use, which easily causes the trays to scatter and affect the tray-setting effect, by using a base plate and bracket, with positioning pins installed at the four corners of the upper surface of the base plate and support rods sleeved on the outer surface of the upper surface of the base plate and the positioning pins, the present invention improves the adjustment efficiency of the clamp and thus improves the line change efficiency of the production line. However, it has a drawback: the device cannot be adjusted according to different angle requirements when clamping, which limits the device and makes it unable to meet different needs in specific application scenarios.

[0024] 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 of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0025] Please see Figure 1 - Figure 4 As shown, this utility model is an auxiliary clamp for an automatic tray slab machine, including a support assembly 1, a transmission assembly 2 installed on one side of the support assembly 1, a rotating assembly 3 installed on the other side of the support assembly 1, a bracket assembly 4 installed at the bottom front side of the rotating assembly 3, and a pneumatic clamping assembly 5 installed at the end of the transmission assembly 2.
[0026] By installing a rotating component 3 and a pneumatic clamping component 5 on the device, the device can be used to perform rotation after clamping by the rotating component 3 and the pneumatic clamping component 5. This allows for different angle requirements after clamping, avoiding limitations during use.
[0027] The bracket assembly 1 includes a mounting base plate 101, a support frame 102 mounted on the top of the mounting base plate 101, and a fixed side plate 104 mounted on one side of the mounting base plate 101. Mounting side plates 103 are mounted on both sides of the top of the support frame 102. The support frame 102 is mounted on the top of the mounting base plate 101, and the mounting side plates 103 are mounted on the top of the support frame 102 to facilitate the installation of the rotating assembly 3. The fixed side plates 104 are mounted on one side of the mounting base plate 101 to facilitate the installation of the transmission assembly 2.
[0028] The transmission assembly 2 includes a rotary motor 201, which is mounted on the outer side of the fixed side plate 104. A rotating rod 202 is mounted on the inner side of the rotary motor 201. A drive wheel 203 is mounted at the end of the rotating rod 202. A transmission belt 204 is mounted on the outer side of the drive wheel 203. A driven wheel 205 is mounted on the other side of the transmission belt 204. A rotating support rod 206 is mounted in the middle of the driven wheel 205. The rotary motor 201 drives the rotating rod 202 to rotate. The rotating rod 202 drives the drive wheel 203. The transmission belt 204 mounted on the outer side of the drive wheel 203 will then perform transmission work, causing the internally associated driven wheel 205 to rotate synchronously. Then the rotating support rod 206 mounted in the middle of the driven wheel 205 will also rotate synchronously. In this way, the material inside will be rotated and driven.
[0029] The rotating assembly 3 includes a limiting plate 301, which is installed on one side of the mounting side plate 103. A second rotating support rod 302 is installed in the middle of the limiting plate 301. The second rotating support rod 302 is installed in the middle of the top of the transmission device 303 and is also installed in the middle of the positioning frame 304. A silicone clamping pad 305 is installed on the inner wall of the positioning frame 304. A second rotating motor 306 is installed on the outer side of the bottom of the transmission device 303. The second rotating motor 306 drives the outer transmission device 303, which in turn drives the second rotating support rod 302 to rotate, so that the silicone clamping pad 305 rotates synchronously.
[0030] The bracket assembly 4 includes a pneumatic telescopic pump 401, which is installed on the top of the support frame 102. A telescopic rod 402 is installed on the top of the pneumatic telescopic pump 401, and a connecting bracket 403 is installed on the top of the telescopic rod 402. A bracket 404 is installed at the end of the connecting bracket 403. During rotation, the pneumatic telescopic pump 401 drives the telescopic rod 402 at the top to extend and retract, so that the connecting bracket 403, along with the bracket 404, can be adjusted in height to provide support for the material at the bottom and prevent the material from falling off during angle adjustment. In this way, the overall clamping work can be completed, and different angles can be adjusted according to different needs.
[0031] The pneumatic clamping assembly 5 includes a second pneumatic telescopic pump 501, which is installed at the end of the first rotating support rod 206. A positioning rod 502 is installed on the inner side of the second pneumatic telescopic pump 501. During clamping, the material is first aligned with the inner side of the pneumatic clamping assembly 5. The positioning rod 502 at the end of the pneumatic telescopic pump 501 drives the material to be confined and confined between the corresponding silicone clamping pads 305.
[0032] When using this device, first, fix the bracket assembly 1 in the corresponding position, then install the transmission assembly 2 on one side of the bracket assembly 1 and the rotating assembly 3 on the other side. Simultaneously, install the bracket assembly 4 at the bottom of one side of the rotating assembly 3, and install the pneumatic clamping assembly 5 at the end of the transmission assembly 2 to complete the overall assembly. In use, first install the support frame 102 on the top of the mounting base plate 101, and install the mounting side plate 103 on the top of the support frame 102 to facilitate the installation of the rotating assembly 3. Then, install the fixing side plate 104 on one side of the mounting base plate 101 to facilitate the installation of the transmission assembly 2. During clamping, first align the material with the inside of the pneumatic clamping assembly 5. The pneumatic telescopic pump 501 drives the positioning rod 502 at the end to constrain the material, confining it between the corresponding silicone clamping pads 305. After clamping, the rotary motor 201 drives the rotating rod 202 to rotate. The active rotating wheel 203 is driven, and the transmission belt 204 installed on the outside of the active rotating wheel 203 will perform transmission work, causing the internally connected passive rotating wheel 205 to rotate synchronously. Then, the rotating support rod 206 installed in the middle of the passive rotating wheel 205 will also rotate synchronously. This will cause the material inside to rotate and move. Correspondingly, the silicone clamping pad 305 is driven by the rotating motor 306 on the other side, which drives the transmission device 303 on the outside. The transmission device 303 further drives the rotating support rod 302 to rotate, causing the silicone clamping pad 305 to rotate synchronously. During the rotation, the pneumatic telescopic pump 401 drives the top telescopic rod 402 to extend and retract, so that the connected bracket 403 and the bracket 404 can be adjusted in height to provide support at the bottom of the material and prevent the material from falling off during the angle adjustment. In this way, the overall clamping work is completed, and different angles can be adjusted according to different needs.
