[0033] like Figures 1-5 As shown, a laser flexible chamfering device mainly includes a robotic arm loading unit 1, a barcode scanning platform unit 2, a barcode scanning camera unit 3, a transfer robotic arm unit 4, a correction platform unit 5, a pre-alignment camera unit 6, a cutting loading robotic arm unit 7, a cutting platform unit 8, a laser cutting unit 9, a cutting unloading robotic arm unit 10, an AOI inspection platform unit 11, a USC cleaning unit 12, an AOI unloading robotic arm unit 13, an AOI camera unit 14, an unloading platform unit 15, an NG throwing robotic arm 16, and an NG throwing platform 17.

[0034] I. Distribution structure of the above-mentioned units on the equipment rack:

[0035] 1. A robotic arm loading unit 1, which moves in the left-right direction, is installed on the front right side of the equipment frame. A barcode scanning platform unit 2, which moves in the front-back direction, and a barcode scanning camera unit 3 adapted to the barcode scanning platform unit 2 are installed on the equipment frame at the rear end of the robotic arm loading unit 1. A transfer robotic arm unit 4, which moves in the left-right direction, is installed on the equipment frame at the rear end of the barcode scanning platform unit 2. A correction platform unit 5, which moves in the front-back direction, and a pre-alignment camera unit 6 adapted to the correction platform unit 5 are installed on the equipment frame at the front left side of the transfer robotic arm unit 4. A cutting and loading robotic arm, which moves in the left-right direction, is installed on the equipment frame at the front end of the correction platform unit 5. Unit 7 has a laser cutting unit 9 mounted on the equipment frame near the left rear end of the cutting and feeding robot unit 7. A cutting and unloading robot unit 10 that runs in the left-right direction is mounted on the equipment frame behind the laser cutting unit 9. An AOI inspection platform unit 11 that runs in the front-back direction and an AOI camera unit 14 that is adapted to the AOI inspection platform unit 11 are mounted on the equipment frame near the left front end of the cutting and unloading robot unit 10. The AOI inspection platform unit 11 drives the AOI unloading robot unit 13 above to move in the front-back direction. The AOI unloading robot unit 13 moves in the left-right direction and is adapted to the unloading platform unit 15 on the left.

[0036] 2. A USC cleaning unit 12 is installed on the equipment rack on one side of the AOI camera unit 14.

[0037] 3. An NG throwing robot 16 that runs in the front-to-back direction is installed on the equipment frame on the left side of the unloading platform unit 15, and an NG throwing platform 17 is installed on the equipment frame on the left side of the rear end of the NG throwing robot 16.

[0038] In summary, the working process of the above-mentioned units can be briefly described as follows:

[0039] The robotic arm loading unit 1 receives the incoming material from the upstream equipment and places it on the barcode scanning platform unit 2. The barcode scanning platform unit 2 then moves the material to a location under the barcode scanning camera unit 3 for barcode scanning. After scanning, the material is transferred by the transfer robotic arm unit 4 to the alignment platform unit 5. The alignment platform unit 5 moves the material to a location under the pre-alignment camera unit 6 for pre-alignment and correction. After alignment, the material is picked up by the cutting loading robotic arm unit 7 and placed on the cutting platform unit 8. The cutting platform unit 8 then moves the material to the laser cutting unit 9 for laser chamfering. After processing, the material is picked up by the cutting unloading robotic arm unit 10 and placed for AOI inspection. Above the platform unit 11, the AOI inspection platform unit 11 transfers the product through the USC cleaning unit 12 and below the AOI camera unit 14, completing the cleaning and inspection of the product and outputting the inspection results to the back-end host. Then, the AOI unloading robot unit 13 grabs and places it on the unloading platform unit 15. According to the back-end AOI inspection results: if the result is NG, the NG throwing robot 16 grabs and places it into the NG throwing platform 17, which is cleaned by personnel periodically; if the result is OK, it is directly transferred from the unloading platform unit 15 to the unloading position, where it is picked up by downstream equipment for subsequent processing.

[0040] II. The laser cutting unit 9 includes a laser cutting base 18 mounted on the equipment frame and a laser cutting gantry 19 mounted on the laser cutting base 18. An optical component 20 and at least one alignment camera component 21 are mounted on the front end of the laser cutting gantry 19. An X-axis transfer component 23 and a Y-axis transfer component 24 are mounted on the laser cutting base 18. The cutting stage unit 8 moves along the left-right direction and the front-back direction, respectively, under the action of the X-axis transfer component 23 and the Y-axis transfer component 24.

[0041] A dust extraction assembly 22 is installed on the laser cutting gantry 19 on one side of the bottom of the optical assembly 20. A scrap material collection assembly 25 that moves in the left-right and up-down directions is installed at the rear end of the laser cutting gantry 19, and a scrap material collection assembly 26 is installed on the equipment frame below the scrap material collection assembly 25.

[0042] After the product enters the laser cutting unit 9, the cutting stage unit 8 is moved by the X-axis transfer component 23 and the Y-axis transfer component 24 to the position below the precision alignment camera component 18 for precision camera alignment. After alignment, the X-axis transfer component 23 and the Y-axis transfer component 24 move the product to the position directly below the optical component 20 and the dust extraction component 22 for laser chamfering. During the processing of the optical component 20, dust and debris are generated and are promptly removed by the dust extraction component 22 to ensure product cleanliness and prevent dust and debris from contaminating unprocessed areas. After chamfering, the product is moved by the X-axis transfer component 23 and the Y-axis transfer component 24 to the scrap material removal position. The scrap material removal component 25 picks up the waste material generated during processing and places it into the scrap material collection component 26 for regular cleaning by personnel. After all processing in the laser cutting unit 9 is completed, the cutting and unloading robot unit 10 picks up the product from this workstation and moves it to the next workstation, the AOI inspection stage unit 11.

[0043] III. The robotic arm components on the robotic arm loading unit 1, the transfer robotic arm unit 4, the cutting loading robotic arm unit 7, the cutting unloading robotic arm unit 10, the AOI unloading robotic arm unit 13, and the NG throwing robotic arm 16 all include a robotic arm base 27 and a suction cup mounting bracket 28. The suction cup mounting bracket 28 is provided with a second oblong hole 30 for mounting multiple suction cups 31, and the robotic arm base 27 is provided with first oblong holes 29 on both sides for mounting multiple suction cup mounting brackets 28.

[0044] To improve the equipment's compatibility with products, the suction cups in the gripping devices such as the robotic arm loading unit 1, transfer robotic arm unit 4, cutting loading robotic arm unit 7, cutting unloading robotic arm unit 10, AOI unloading robotic arm unit 13, and NG throwing robotic arm 16 are all equipped with adjustable elongated holes along the length and width of the product, ensuring that the equipment can be compatible with more products of different sizes.

[0045] IV. The correction components on the correction stage unit 5 include a UVW correction mechanism 32 and a UVW correction platform 33 mounted on the UVW correction mechanism 32.

[0046] The correction stage unit 5 uses a correction mechanism with a UVW correction platform. After the pre-alignment camera unit 6 takes a picture and reads the image, it can immediately compensate the position and angle of the incoming product based on the read position information to ensure the consistency of the product position entering the equipment, thereby ensuring the accuracy and stability of the subsequent laser chamfering process.

[0047] During normal operation, all processes of this equipment require no manual intervention, saving manpower and reducing production costs. It features a fully automated production mode, ensuring stable mechanical operation and largely mitigating product quality inconsistencies caused by varying personnel skill levels. Workstation-to-workstation exchanges are fully automated, eliminating the need for manual handling, thus improving production efficiency and generating greater economic benefits.

[0048] The X-axis direction mentioned in this article is as follows: Figure 1 The left and right directions shown are, in this article, the Y-axis direction, as shown. Figure 1 The front-back direction shown in the figure is the Z-axis direction as described in this article. Figure 1 The up and down directions are shown in the diagram.

Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," etc., are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implying the number of indicated technical features. Thus, features defined with "first," "second," etc., may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise stated, "a plurality of" means two or more.

[0050] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components.
