Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of automated material receiving equipment technology, and in particular to a vertical material receiving mechanism for sealing gaskets. Background Technology

[0002] The core function of a gasket is to fill the gaps in the contact surface, achieve a seal and prevent leakage through elastic deformation, and at the same time buffer vibration and compensate for thermal expansion and contraction.

[0003] In the production of gaskets, finished product collection is one of the final key processes. Currently, the industry generally adopts automated assembly line operations. The material collection process often uses an inclined slide design. The gaskets pass through a single inclined stainless steel guide rod and slide down and stack along the inclined guide rod under the action of gravity, so as to realize the automatic arrangement and collection of gaskets under high-speed production conditions.

[0004] However, the existing gasket receiving mechanism has the following problems: when the gasket slides down the inclined plane, it continuously rubs against the metal rod, which will produce obvious scratches on the contact surface. Moreover, when the subsequent gasket hits the preceding gasket at an angle, the uneven contact surface between the two generates a force component, which aggravates the scratches on the surface of the gasket and makes it difficult to improve the product qualification rate. Utility Model Content

[0005] To improve the product qualification rate of sealing gaskets, this application provides a vertical gasket receiving mechanism.

[0006] The vertical gasket receiving mechanism provided in this application adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A vertical gasket receiving mechanism includes a guide block, a support rod, and a base. The support rod is arranged perpendicular to the base. The guide block is supported on the support rod. The gasket passes through the guide block and descends along the support rod to be stacked on the base.

[0008] By adopting the above scheme, the guide block is responsible for guiding the sealing gasket to fall along the support rod under the action of gravity. The support rod is responsible for supporting the guide block and dispersing the stress on the guide block. The base is responsible for bearing the pressure of stacked sealing gaskets. When the sealing gasket falls vertically, it makes flat contact with the contact surface. The impact force is evenly distributed on the contact surface, reducing the generation of scratches on the surface of the sealing gasket and improving the product qualification rate of the sealing gasket.

[0009] Preferably, there are several support rods arranged circumferentially, and the outer arms of the support rods can all abut against the inner wall of the sealing gasket.

[0010] By adopting the above scheme, after the sealing gasket passes through the guide block and falls, its inner wall abuts against the outer wall of the support rod. The support rod guides the sealing gasket to automatically adjust to the concentric position through circumferential multi-point contact, so as to achieve vertical alignment when the materials are stacked.

[0011] Preferably, the base has a plurality of docking holes arranged in multiple circumferential circles. The size of the docking holes is adapted to the cross-sectional size of the support rod, and the docking holes are inserted into the support rod.

[0012] By adopting the above solution, the support rod is vertically fixed on the base by interlocking with the docking hole, reducing the risk of the support rod loosening. The multi-hole design allows the staff to manually adjust the insertion position of the support rod, and the equipment's versatility is improved by replacing the top guide block to accommodate the stacking requirements of sealing gaskets of different sizes.

[0013] Preferably, it also includes a workbench, which is mounted on the ground, and the base has a positioning hole in the center, which is threaded into the upper surface of the workbench.

[0014] By adopting the above solution, the threaded structure supports quick assembly and disassembly of the base, reduces displacement caused by equipment vibration, and improves the stability of the equipment.

[0015] Preferably, the guide block is arranged in a circular ring structure, and the outer circular cross-section of the guide block is smaller than the inner circular area of ​​the sealing gasket.

[0016] By adopting the above scheme, the guide block can guide the sealing gasket to pass smoothly and limit its radial displacement during the falling process.

[0017] Preferably, the bottom of the guide block has a plurality of mating grooves corresponding to the support rod, and the mating grooves are inserted into the support rod.

[0018] By adopting the above scheme, the plug-in structure enables tool-free loading and unloading, facilitating the maintenance or replacement of guide blocks and support rods to adapt to other specifications of sealing gaskets. The multi-slot synchronous plug-in connection makes the guide blocks and support rod assemblies rigidly constrain each other, improving the equipment's seismic performance and load-bearing capacity.

[0019] Preferably, the groove of the docking slot extends through the guide block.

[0020] By adopting the above solution, the through-slot design allows the guide block or support rod to be inserted and matched from multiple directions, which improves assembly efficiency and provides room for the rod body to tilt due to long-term use.

[0021] Preferably, it also includes a material conveying assembly for transporting the sealing gasket to the receiving area. The material conveying assembly includes a robotic arm, a motor, a connecting plate, and a robotic claw. The robotic arm is mounted on the workbench, the motor is connected to the robotic arm, the output shaft of the motor is arranged in a vertical direction, the connecting plate is located below the motor and connected to one end of the output shaft of the motor, and a robotic claw is provided at each end of the connecting plate.

[0022] By adopting the above scheme, the robotic arm, in conjunction with the robotic claw, picks up the processed sealing gasket from the previous process. The motor drives the connecting plate to rotate through the output shaft, which in turn drives the symmetrically arranged double robotic claws to alternately drop the picked-up material from above the guide block, thus improving the material collection efficiency.

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

[0024] 1. When the sealing gasket falls vertically, it makes flat contact with the contact surface, and the impact force is evenly distributed on the contact surface, which reduces the generation of scratches on the contact surface and improves the product qualification rate of the sealing gasket.

[0025] 2. Improved the versatility and convenience of the equipment;

[0026] 3. Improved the stability and load-bearing capacity of the equipment. Attached Figure Description

[0030] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-2 This application will be described in further detail.

[0031] This application discloses a vertical gasket receiving mechanism. (Refer to...) Figure 1-2 A vertical gasket receiving mechanism includes a guide block 3, a support rod 2, a base 4, and a workbench 1. The workbench 1 is erected on the ground, the base 4 is fixed to the upper surface of the workbench 1, the support rod 2 is set perpendicular to the base 4, the guide block 3 is supported on the support rod 2, and after the gasket passes through the guide block 3, it falls down along the support rod 2 under the action of gravity and stacks on the base 4.

[0032] Therefore, after the sealing gasket is dropped vertically, it makes flat contact with the base 4 or the sealing gaskets stacked on the base 4. The impact force is evenly distributed on the contact surface and is converted into radial pressure distributed along the circumference of the contact surface. After the force per unit area is reduced, the generation of scratches on the surface of the sealing gasket is reduced, and the product qualification rate of the sealing gasket is improved.

[0033] Specifically, there are several support rods 2. In this embodiment, there are four support rods 2 arranged in a circumferential manner. The outer arms of the four support rods 2 can all abut against the inner wall of the sealing gasket. Therefore, the multiple support rods 2 evenly distribute the total weight of the guide block 3 and the sealing gasket, reduce excessive stress on a single point and thus reduce deformation, thereby extending the service life of the support rods 2.

[0034] Furthermore, the circular boundary formed by the support rods 2 creates a physical constraint on the inner wall of the sealing gasket. When the sealing gasket passes through the guide block 3 and falls, its inner wall abuts against the outer wall of the support rods 2, reducing its radial displacement during the fall. After the sealing gasket contacts the support rods 2, it automatically adjusts to a concentric position, achieving vertical alignment during stacking, which is suitable for material stacking in automated operations.

[0035] On the other hand, the base 4 is provided with a number of docking holes 42. In this embodiment, the number of docking holes 42 are grouped with the support rod 2 and arranged in a circumferential manner. That is, the number of docking holes 42 surrounds and forms a circular array of different sizes. The size of the docking holes 42 is adapted to the cross-sectional size of the support rod 2.

[0036] Correspondingly, the support rod 2 is vertically fixed on the base 4 by inserting into the docking hole 42. The combination of hole and rod reduces the risk of loosening between the base 4 and the support rod 2, and increases the stability of the sealing gasket during the stacking and collection process.

[0037] Furthermore, when collecting gaskets of other sizes, the multi-hole design allows workers to manually pull the support rod 2 from the base 4 and reinsert it into the appropriate mating hole 42. The top of the support rod 2 then carries the guide block 3 of the corresponding size, allowing for flexible stacking and collection of gaskets of different sizes, thus improving the versatility of the equipment.

[0038] Meanwhile, a positioning hole 41 is provided in the center of the base 4. The positioning hole 41 is threaded with the worktable 1 to realize the quick assembly and disassembly of the base 4. The threaded structure reduces the displacement of the equipment caused by vibration and further improves the stability of the equipment.

[0039] On the other hand, the guide block 3 is arranged in a circular structure, and the outer circle cross-section of the guide block 3 is smaller than the inner circle area of ​​the sealing gasket, so that the sealing gasket can fall smoothly through the guide block 3 while limiting its offset.

[0040] Furthermore, the annular structure of the guide block 3 and the cylindrical structure formed by the four support rods 2 always limit the falling sealing gasket, further reducing the radial displacement of the sealing gasket.

[0041] In addition, the bottom of the guide block 3 is provided with several mating grooves 31 corresponding to the support rod 2. The mating grooves 31 are inserted into the support rod 2, and the groove opening of the mating groove 31 passes through the guide block 3. This design allows the guide block 3 or the support rod 2 to be inserted from multiple directions, and an appropriate amount of movement is reserved in the mating gap between the support rod 2 and the guide block 3. This not only improves the assembly accuracy, but also effectively compensates for the slight deformation of the support rod 2 caused by long-term use, thereby maintaining the long-term stability of the equipment.

[0042] Furthermore, the multi-slot synchronous insertion makes the guide block 3 and the support rod 2 mutually rigidly constrain each other, which improves the equipment's seismic performance and load-bearing capacity. If it is necessary to stack and collect other specifications of sealing gaskets, the staff can manually replace the appropriate guide block 3 and support rod 2, which combines assembly efficiency, versatility and convenience.

[0043] On the other hand, it also includes a material conveying component 5, which is mounted on the workbench 1. The material conveying component 5 connects the previous gasket processing step and the receiving area, and is used to transport the gasket to the receiving area.

[0044] Specifically, the material handling component 5 includes a robotic arm 51, a motor 52, a connecting plate 53, and a robotic claw 54. The robotic arm 51 is fixed on the workbench 1. The motor 52 is connected to the robotic arm 51. The output shaft of the motor 52 is set in the vertical direction. The connecting plate 53 is located below the motor 52. One end of the output shaft of the motor 52 is connected to the center of the upper surface of the connecting plate 53. A robotic claw 54 is installed at each end of the connecting plate 53.

[0045] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the robotic arm 51 also has a built-in controller. The robotic arm 51, motor 52 and robotic claw 54 are all electrically connected to the controller. The controller can coordinate and match the working cycle of the robotic arm 51, motor 52 and robotic claw 54 through integrated algorithms, and dynamically adjust the motion trajectory of the robotic arm 51, the speed of the motor 52 and the opening and closing sequence of the robotic claw 54, so that the grasping-rotating-releasing action is seamlessly connected.

[0046] Correspondingly, after the robotic arm 51 and the robotic claw 54 pick up the processed sealing gasket from the previous process, the motor 52 drives the connecting plate 53 to rotate through the output shaft, which drives the symmetrically arranged double robotic claws 54 to alternately perform the feeding action, dropping the picked-up sealing gasket from above the guide block 3, effectively improving the material collection efficiency.

[0047] The implementation principle of the vertical gasket collecting mechanism in this application embodiment is as follows: by changing the traditional single inclined rod collection of gaskets to two sets of stacked vertical support rods, the gaskets fall vertically and land smoothly on the base 4 or the already stacked gaskets, thereby distributing the impact force evenly to the entire contact surface and converting it into circumferential pressure, reducing the pressure per unit area, effectively reducing scratches on the gasket surface, and improving the product qualification rate of the gaskets.

[0048] 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.
