Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of machining tools, and more particularly to a feeding device for the production of blade box covers. Background Technology

[0002] Hardware cutting tools have advantages such as high cutting efficiency, high wear resistance and multi-functionality. Due to their high precision, in order to avoid damage to the tools during transportation or storage, they need to be packaged in boxes after production. This not only protects the tools but also facilitates storage or transportation.

[0003] Packaging boxes typically consist of a lid and a box body. After the lid is produced (e.g., through injection molding), a robot arm is controlled by a controller to remove the injection-molded lid from the mold. Injection molds usually have multiple injection positions, allowing them to simultaneously mold multiple lids. To facilitate the simultaneous removal of multiple lids from the injection mold, the robot arm is equipped with a number of unloading devices equal to the number of injection positions. Through the coordination of several unloading devices, several injection-molded lids are simultaneously removed from the injection mold.

[0004] After completing the above steps, the box lids are transferred to a conveyor belt located on one side of the injection molding machine by a robotic arm. The conveyor belt then transports the box lids to a designated collection device for unified collection. Subsequently, the operators transfer the collection device, which is full of box lids, to the packaging workshop for packaging by direction and quantity to form finished products. The overall production process has a lot of redundant time, and during the process of transporting the box lids to the collection device by the conveyor belt, the box lids may be covered with dust or scratched, which is not conducive to improving the appearance quality of the box lids and there is room for improvement. Utility Model Content

[0005] To facilitate the collection of blade box covers after production, this application provides a discharge device for blade box cover production.

[0006] The present application provides a discharge device for blade box cover production, which adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A discharge device for producing blade box lids includes a frame and a support plate rotatably supported on the frame. The support plate has several sets of material collection components arranged in a circular array along its geometric center. Each material collection component includes a carrier plate and has collection positions equal in number to the discharge device. Each collection position is used to collect box lids placed down along the discharge device. Several box lids can be stacked on any one of the collection positions. When the number of box lids stacked on a collection position reaches its maximum value, the carrier plate, carrying several sets of material collection components, rotates along the frame until the next carrier plate without collected box lids rotates to the bottom of the discharge device.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the support plate that can rotate along the frame and the material collection components arranged in a circular array on the support plate can realize the alternating collection of box covers at multiple stations. When a set of collection stations is full of box covers, it automatically switches to the next collection station, thus achieving the purpose of orderly collection of box covers. Compared with the method of using a conveyor belt, this application can reduce the amount of scratches or dust adhesion on the box covers during transportation, and plays a positive guiding role in improving the convenience of material discharge and collection of blade box covers after production.

[0009] Preferably, the collection position is provided with a plurality of limiting rods along its edge, and the plurality of limiting rods cooperate to limit the box lid stacked on the collection position.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, a physical constraint space is formed at the collection position by several limiting rods, thereby improving the neatness and verticality of the box lid stacking process, reducing the probability of tipping over due to vibration or inertia, and reducing the frequency of sorting by operators.

[0011] Preferably, a material-taking gap is provided between any two adjacent limiting rods.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the design of the material picking gap takes into account both limiting and operational convenience, making it easy for operators to take out the stacked box lids along the collection position along the material picking gap.

[0013] Preferably, the side of the support plate opposite to the side that abuts against the box cover has countersunk holes of the same number as the limiting rods, and the end of the limiting rod is provided with a fixing part. When the limiting rod passes through the countersunk hole, the fixing part is located in the countersunk hole.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the countersunk hole and the fixing part are installed in a hidden manner, so that the bottom of the limiting rod is completely embedded in the bearing plate, improving the perpendicularity of the limiting rod and the bearing plate, and making the surface of the bearing plate flat, which facilitates the stable stacking of the box lid.

[0015] Preferably, the material collection assembly further includes a fixing plate, which is disposed on the support plate. The bearing plate and the fixing plate are detachably connected. When the bearing plate is located on the fixing plate, the side of the bearing plate with the countersunk hole abuts against the fixing plate.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, after the limiting rod is installed on the bearing plate through the countersunk hole, the fixing part of the limiting rod is fixed by the fixing plate, which reduces the probability of the limiting rod becoming loose or falling off along the countersunk hole.

[0017] Preferably, an infrared detection sensor is provided on the support plate, with the detection end of the infrared detection sensor facing the collection position, and the controller is electrically connected to the infrared detection sensor and the feeding device.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, infrared detection sensors are used to detect whether there are stacked box lids on the collection position. This reduces the probability of the unloading device continuously stacking box lids on the placement position due to the operator's failure to remove the stacked box lids from the placement position in time, thereby increasing the height of the height limit bar of the stacked box lids and causing the box lids stacked above the limit bar to tip over.

[0019] Preferably, the rack is provided with a temporary storage box for collecting stacked box lids removed along the collection position.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, operators can store the stacked box lids taken out along the collection position, improving the convenience of collecting the stacked box lids.

[0021] Preferably, the frame is provided with rollers.

[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, the frame can be moved using rollers, which helps to improve the overall flexibility.

[0023] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0024] 1. By using a support plate that can rotate along the frame and a material collection assembly arranged in a circumferential array on the support plate, the box cover can be collected alternately at multiple workstations. This can reduce the amount of scratches or dust adhering to the box cover during transportation and play a positive guiding role in improving the convenience of material discharge and collection of the blade box cover after production.

[0025] 2. By using several limiting rods to form a physical constraint space at the collection position, the neatness and verticality of the box lids during stacking are improved, the probability of tipping over due to vibration or inertia is reduced, and the frequency of sorting by operators is reduced.

[0026] 3. The infrared detection sensor detects whether there are stacked box lids on the collection position, reducing the probability of the feeding device continuously stacking box lids on the collection position that already has them. Attached Figure Description

[0032] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-4 This application will be described in further detail.

[0033] This application discloses a material discharge device for the production of blade box covers. (Refer to...) Figure 1 and Figure 2 A discharge device for producing blade box lids includes a frame 1 and a support plate 6 rotatably supported on the frame 1. The support plate 6 is arranged in a circular array along its geometric center with several sets of material collection components 2. Each material collection component 2 includes a support plate 21. The support plate 21 is provided with the same number of collection positions 3 as the discharge device. The collection positions 3 are used to collect the box lids that are dropped down along the discharge device. Several box lids can be stacked on any collection position 3. When the number of box lids stacked on the collection position 3 reaches the maximum value, the support plate 21 carries several sets of material collection components 2 and rotates along the frame 1 until the next support plate 21 that has not collected a box lid rotates to the bottom of the discharge device.

[0034] Specifically, a drive component (not shown in the figure) is installed inside the frame 1. The drive component drives the support plate 21 to rotate along the frame 1. The drive component can be a motor gear drive mechanism (a module that drives the rotation of conventional mechanical components, the specific composition and working principle of which will not be described in detail here). In this embodiment, preferably, the drive component is a servo motor. The output shaft of the servo motor is connected to the support plate 21. The servo motor drives the support plate 21 to rotate along the frame 1, so as to control the angle of rotation of the support plate 21 along the frame 1.

[0035] Furthermore, the "several sets of material collection components 2" can be added or removed according to actual needs and the size of the support plate 6. In this embodiment, preferably, four sets of material collection components 2 are provided. The four sets of material collection components 2 are arranged in a circular array on the support plate 6 with the output shaft of the servo motor as the center. Since the components of the four sets of material collection components 2 are the same and the connection method with the support plate is the same, for ease of explanation, the following description will arbitrarily select one set of material collection components 2 for detailed description.

[0036] Correspondingly, the "carrying plate 21 is provided with the same number of collection positions 3 as the feeding device". The specific number of collection positions 3 can be increased or decreased according to the number of box lids that the feeding device can grab at the same time. In this embodiment, for ease of explanation, preferably, four sets of collection positions 3 are provided, and the four sets of collection positions 3 are symmetrically arranged on the carrying plate 21.

[0037] The implementation principle of the material discharge device for blade box cover production in this application embodiment is as follows: Through the support plate 6 that can rotate along the frame 1 and the material collection components 2 arranged in a circumferential array on the support plate 6, the box covers are collected alternately at multiple stations. When a set of collection stations 3 is full of box covers, it automatically switches to the next collection station 3, so as to achieve the purpose of orderly collection of box covers. Compared with the method of using a conveyor belt, this application can reduce the amount of scratches or dust adhesion on the box covers during transportation, and plays a positive guiding role in improving the convenience of material discharge and collection of blade box covers after production.

[0038] Reference Figures 2-4 Several limiting rods 4 are provided along the edge of the collection position 3, and the several limiting rods 4 cooperate to limit the box lid stacked on the collection position 3.

[0039] Specifically, in this embodiment, six limiting rods 4 are provided. The six limiting rods 4 work together to limit the space area enclosed by the collection position 3 along the width and length directions. By forming a physical constraint space at the collection position 3 through several limiting rods 4, the neatness and verticality of the box lid stacking process are improved, the probability of tipping over due to vibration or inertia is reduced, and the frequency of sorting by the operator is reduced.

[0040] It should be noted here that the "maximum value" referred to in the phrase "when the number of box lids stacked on the collection position 3 reaches the maximum value" depends on the vertical height of the limiting rod 4 along the support plate 21, and the specific value of the "maximum value" is not limited here.

[0041] Furthermore, a material-taking gap 41 is provided between any two adjacent limiting rods 4, that is, there is a certain distance between two adjacent limiting rods 4. The design of the material-taking gap 41 takes into account both limiting and operational convenience, making it easy for operators to take out the stacked box lids along the collection position 3 along the material-taking gap 41.

[0042] Correspondingly, the side of the support plate 21 opposite to the side that abuts against the box lid has the same number of countersunk holes 5 as the limiting rod 4. The end of the limiting rod 4 is provided with a fixing part 42. When the limiting rod 4 passes through the countersunk hole 5, the fixing part 42 is located inside the countersunk hole 5. The outer contour of the fixing part 42 matches the contour formed by the countersunk hole 5. The countersunk hole 5 and the fixing part 42 are installed in a concealed manner, so that the fixing part 42 of the limiting rod 4 is completely embedded in the support plate 21. This makes it easy to install the limiting rod 4 on the support plate 21 without the need for additional mechanical parts to fix the limiting rod 4. This improves the perpendicularity of the fitting between the limiting rod 4 and the support plate 21, and at the same time makes the surface of the support plate 21 flat, which is convenient for the box lid to be stacked stably.

[0043] Meanwhile, the aggregate assembly 2 also includes a fixing plate 22, which is disposed on the support plate 6. The bearing plate 21 is detachably connected to the fixing plate 22. When the bearing plate 21 is located on the fixing plate 22, the side of the bearing plate 21 with the countersunk hole 5 abuts against the fixing plate 22.

[0044] The fixing plate 22 can be fixed to the support plate 6 with bolts, so as to facilitate the assembly and disassembly of the fixing plate 22 along the support plate 6. At the same time, the bearing plate 21 and the fixing plate 22 can also be fixedly connected with bolts. During the assembly process, the operator sequentially inserts several limiting rods 4 into the countersunk holes 5, and then fixes the fixing plate 22 to the bearing plate 21 with bolts, so that the fixing plate 22 is located between the fixing plate 21 and the bearing plate 22, reducing the probability of the limiting rods 4 loosening or falling off along the countersunk holes 5.

[0045] In addition, an infrared detection sensor (not shown in the figure) is provided on the support plate 6. The detection end of the infrared detection sensor faces the collection position 3. The controller is electrically connected to the infrared detection sensor and the feeding device.

[0046] First, it should be noted that the controller mentioned is an existing robotic arm controller, which is a PLC (Programmable Logic Controller). It includes multiple functions such as logic control, timing control, analog control, and multi-machine communication, and has a human-machine interface to facilitate the control and adjustment of the PLC. As it is an existing controller, its specific composition and working principle will not be elaborated here.

[0047] Infrared sensors are used to detect whether there are stacked box lids on the collection position 3. This reduces the probability that the unloading device will continue to stack the already stacked box lids on the placement position because the operator fails to remove the stacked box lids from the placement position in time, thereby increasing the height of the stacked box lids above the height limit rod 4 and causing the box lids stacked above the limit rod 4 to tip over.

[0048] Reference Figure 1 The frame 1 is equipped with a temporary storage box 7, which is used to collect stacked box lids removed along the collection position 3. In this embodiment, the frame 1 is formed by connecting metal materials together (e.g., by welding or bolting), and is divided into chambers using plates (e.g., metal plates or non-metallic material plates) to accommodate the stacked box lids, thus forming the temporary storage box 7. Operators can store the stacked box lids removed along the collection position 3, improving the convenience of collecting the stacked box lids.

[0049] Meanwhile, the frame 1 is provided with rollers 8. In this embodiment, four rollers 8 are provided. The four rollers 8 are installed in a rectangular array along the bottom of the frame 1 at the corners of the frame 1, so that the frame 1 can be moved by the rollers 8, which helps to improve the overall flexibility.

[0050] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
