[0003] Currently, when processing workpieces, it is often necessary to place the workpiece on a feeding platform and use the grippers on the robotic arm to pick up and process the workpiece. However, when the robotic arm and grippers are in use, they may be affected by other uncontrollable factors such as the installation position of the workpiece, which may cause certain errors in the gripping of the compensating grippers. This may lead to contact and collision with the feeding platform and the workpiece, resulting in low safety and flexibility when using the existing feeding platform. Utility Model Content

[0004] To further improve the safety and flexibility of existing material feeding platforms, this application provides a flexible material feeding platform.

[0005] The flexible feeding platform provided in this application adopts the following technical solution: A flexible feeding platform includes a processing frame, a fixed platform is provided on the processing frame, and corresponding airbags are fixedly installed on all four sides of the top of the fixed platform. The airbags are stacked in pairs, and the top of the multiple airbags is fixedly installed with the same buffer plate. The top of the buffer plate is provided with a lifting mechanism for lifting the workpiece.

[0006] The lifting mechanism includes multiple openings on the buffer plate, each opening containing a corresponding return spring, each return spring having a corresponding spring post at its top, and each spring post being located below the workpiece.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, the workpiece is placed on the buffer plate and above the corresponding multiple spring columns. The horizontal setting of the workpiece is limited by the corresponding fixed columns and adjusting columns. Through the multiple airbags around it, when the gripper on the robotic arm touches the buffer plate, the buffer plate can move downward and compress the corresponding airbags, thereby compensating for the gripper's clamping error and playing a flexible buffering role. Therefore, the safety and flexibility during use can be improved.

[0008] Preferably, the top of the buffer plate is symmetrically fixed with multiple fixed columns and movably equipped with adjustable columns, and the fixed columns and adjustable columns are of the same size.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the workpiece can be limited and fixed by setting a fixing column.

[0010] Preferably, the top of the buffer plate is provided with an adjustment mechanism, which includes a plurality of adjustment holes respectively opened on the top of the buffer plate and a plurality of round holes corresponding to the adjustment holes. Two mounting ears are symmetrically fixedly installed on the outer side of the adjustment column, and a corresponding first fixing bolt is screwed onto each of the two mounting ears.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the position of the adjusting column can be adjusted according to the length of the workpiece through the cooperation of multiple adjusting holes and adjusting column, and the adjusting column can be positioned and installed by rotating the first fixing bolt.

[0012] Preferably, the plurality of first fixing bolts are matched with the corresponding circular holes.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, multiple first fixing bolts are matched with corresponding round holes, which facilitates installation.

[0014] Preferably, the adjustment mechanism further includes a connecting plate fixedly installed on the adjustment column. Two sleeve rods are symmetrically fixedly installed on one side of the connecting plate. One end of each of the two sleeve rods is provided with a corresponding sleeve. One end of each of the two sleeves is fixedly installed with a corresponding upright plate. The two upright plates are fixedly installed on the buffer plate. Each of the two sleeves is screwed with a corresponding adjusting bolt.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the adjusting column is moved by pulling, which will also move the connecting plate and the sleeve rod into the sleeve. The position of the adjusting column can be adjusted, and the position of the sleeve rod and the adjusting column can be positioned and installed by rotating the adjusting bolt.

[0016] Preferably, the sleeve is hollow inside, and the sleeve rod is slidably installed inside the sleeve.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the sleeve is hollow inside, which facilitates the sliding of the sleeve rod inside the sleeve.

[0018] Preferably, the bottom end of each of the plurality of reset springs is fixedly mounted with the same base plate, and two threaded holes are symmetrically opened on the base plate, and a corresponding second fixing bolt is screwed into each of the two threaded holes.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the positioning installation of the base plate can be released by rotating the second fixing bolt. At this time, the base plate can be disassembled, and then the corresponding multiple return springs can be disassembled.

[0020] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0021] 1. This application utilizes airbags and other components. By placing the workpiece on a buffer plate above multiple spring pillars, and limiting the horizontal position of the workpiece using corresponding fixed and adjusting pillars, the multiple airbags around the perimeter allow the buffer plate to move downwards and compress the corresponding airbags when the gripper on the robotic arm touches it. This compensates for gripper clamping errors and provides a flexible buffering effect, thus improving safety and flexibility during use. The multiple spring pillars can be used to lift the workpiece, ensuring that the top surface of the workpiece fits against the bottom of the gripper after the gripper presses down, facilitating subsequent product grinding accuracy.

[0022] 2. This application employs the cooperation of adjusting holes, etc., and through the cooperation of multiple adjusting holes and adjusting columns, the position of the adjusting column can be adjusted according to the length of the workpiece, and the adjusting column can be positioned and installed by rotating the first fixing bolt.

[0033] The buffer mechanism includes airbags 3 fixedly installed around the top of the fixed platform 2, and the airbags 3 are stacked in pairs, with the same buffer plate 4 fixedly installed on the top of each airbag 3.

[0034] In use, multiple airbags 3 around the perimeter allow the gripper on the robotic arm to touch the buffer plate 4, causing the buffer plate 4 to move downwards and compress the corresponding airbags 3. This compensates for gripper clamping errors and provides a flexible buffering effect, thus improving safety and flexibility during use.

[0035] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 5 The lifting mechanism includes multiple openings 16 on the buffer plate 4, each opening 16 having a corresponding return spring 17, each return spring 17 having a corresponding spring post 18 on its top, each spring post 18 being located below the workpiece, each buffer plate 4 having multiple fixed posts 5 symmetrically fixedly installed on its top and an adjustable post 6 movably installed, the fixed posts 5 and the adjustable post 6 being the same size, each return spring 17 having a base plate 19 fixedly installed at one bottom end, each base plate 19 having two threaded holes 20 symmetrically opened on its bottom, each threaded hole 20 having a corresponding second fixing bolt 21 screwed into it.

[0036] In use, multiple spring pillars 18 can be used to lift the workpiece. After the jaws are pressed down, the top surface of the workpiece is ensured to fit with the bottom of the jaws, which is convenient for subsequent product grinding accuracy. By rotating the second fixing bolt 21, the positioning installation of the base plate 19 can be released. At this time, the base plate 19 can be disassembled, and then the corresponding multiple return springs 17 can be disassembled.

Two mounting ears 8 are symmetrically fixedly installed on the outer side of the adjustment column 6. Each mounting ear 8 is screwed with a corresponding first fixing bolt 9. The multiple first fixing bolts 9 and the corresponding round holes 10 are matched.

[0038] In use, the position of the adjusting column 6 can be adjusted according to the length of the workpiece through the cooperation of multiple adjusting holes 7 and adjusting column 6. The adjusting column 6 can be positioned and installed by rotating the first fixing bolt 9.

The position of the adjusting column 6 can be adjusted, and the position of the sleeve rod 12 and the adjusting column 6 can be positioned and installed by rotating the adjusting bolt 15. This application adopts two different adjustment methods, which can be selected according to the usage requirements.

[0042] The implementation principle of a flexible feeding platform according to this application embodiment is as follows: When in use, the workpiece is first placed on the buffer plate 4 and above the corresponding multiple spring columns 18. The horizontal setting of the workpiece is limited by the corresponding fixed column 5 and adjusting column 6. Through the multiple airbags 3 around the perimeter, when the gripper on the robotic arm touches the buffer plate 4, the buffer plate 4 can be moved downward and the corresponding airbags 3 can be compressed, thereby compensating for the gripper's clamping error and playing a flexible buffering role. Therefore, it can improve the safety and flexibility during use.

[0043] Multiple spring posts 18 can be used to lift the workpiece. After the jaws are pressed down, the top surface of the workpiece is ensured to fit with the bottom of the jaws, which is convenient for subsequent product grinding accuracy. By rotating the second fixing bolt 21, the positioning installation of the base plate 19 can be released. At this time, the base plate 19 can be disassembled, and then the corresponding multiple return springs 17 can be disassembled.

[0044] With the cooperation of multiple adjusting holes 7 and adjusting column 6, the position of adjusting column 6 can be adjusted according to the length of the workpiece, and the adjusting column 6 can be positioned and installed by rotating the first fixing bolt 9.

[0045] By pulling the adjusting column 6, the connecting plate 11 will also move, and the sleeve rod 12 will move into the sleeve 13. The position of the adjusting column 6 can be adjusted. By rotating the adjusting bolt 15, the position of the sleeve rod 12 and the adjusting column 6 can be positioned and installed. This application adopts two different adjustment methods, which can be selected according to the usage requirements.

[0046] 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.
