Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sorting device technology, and in particular to an automatic sorting equipment for mold parts. Background Technology

[0002] During mold manufacturing and use, different mold parts have different specifications, shapes, and sizes. By sorting, these parts can be classified and organized according to specific standards, making it easier for workers to quickly find the required parts during production, reducing wasted time searching for parts, and thus improving overall production efficiency. In the assembly process of injection molds, various screws, pins, ejector pins, and other parts are sorted out and placed in different workstations or containers, which assembly workers can directly use, greatly improving assembly speed.

[0003] Currently, most mainstream mold parts sorting equipment adopts clamp-type sorting technology, which has shortcomings when sorting irregularly shaped parts. Due to the lack of path planning devices, the sorting path needs to be manually adjusted and intervened. The equipment generally does not have part posture recognition and adaptive clamping mechanisms, making it difficult to achieve stable clamping of irregularly shaped parts with different postures. This technical limitation results in insufficient automation of the sorting process, and the sorting efficiency is difficult to meet production needs. Therefore, there is a need for an automatic mold parts sorting equipment. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art, and to provide an automatic sorting device for mold parts, which can solve the problem that existing mold parts sorting devices require manual trajectory adjustment and intervention when sorting different parts, resulting in insufficient automation and sorting efficiency that cannot meet production needs.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an automatic sorting device for mold parts, comprising a conveyor belt support and an automatic sorting mechanism. The automatic sorting mechanism includes a second support, hydraulic cylinders, telescopic rods, sorting mechanisms, rotating shafts, rotating sleeves, and vision sensors. The second support is fixedly connected to the top of the conveyor belt support. There are two hydraulic cylinders, both fixedly connected to the top of the second support. There are multiple telescopic rods, both fixedly connected to the surface of the second support. There are two sorting mechanisms, both slidably connected inside the second support. The top of each sorting mechanism is fixedly connected to the output end of a hydraulic cylinder. There are multiple rotating shafts, equidistantly rotatably connected inside the sorting mechanism. The number of rotating sleeves is the same as the number of rotating shafts, and each is fixedly sleeved on the outer surface of the corresponding rotating shaft. There are two vision sensors, both fixedly connected to the surface of the second support.

[0006] Preferably, the surface of the sorting mechanism is provided with an inclined surface, and the two sorting mechanisms are symmetrically arranged at the bottom of the second support.

[0007] Preferably, a first support is fixedly connected to the top of the conveyor belt support, and a partition is fixedly connected to the bottom of the first support, with the partition located in the center of the first support.

[0008] Preferably, a plurality of electric push rods are fixedly connected to the surface of the first bracket, and a push plate is fixedly connected to the output end of the electric push rod. There are two push plates, which are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the conveyor belt bracket.

[0009] Preferably, a conveyor belt is provided on the surface of the conveyor belt support, and a motor is fixedly connected to the surface of the conveyor belt support. The output shaft of the motor passes through the conveyor belt support and is fixedly connected to a rotating roller provided on the conveyor belt.

[0013] 1. This automatic sorting equipment for mold parts achieves efficient and precise automated sorting through the coordinated operation of a modular mechanical structure and an intelligent sensing system.

They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

The use of terms like "first" and "second" is merely for distinguishing technical features and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance, or implicitly indicating the quantity or sequence of the indicated technical features.

[0023] In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly defined, terms such as "setting," "installation," and "connection" should be interpreted broadly, and those skilled in the art can reasonably determine the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model in conjunction with the specific content of the technical solution.

[0024] Please see Figure 1-4This utility model provides a technical solution: an automatic sorting device for mold parts, including a conveyor belt support 1 and an automatic sorting mechanism. The automatic sorting mechanism includes a second support 9, hydraulic cylinders 12, telescopic rods 13, sorting mechanisms 14, rotating shafts 15, rotating sleeves 16, and vision sensors 17. The second support 9 is fixedly connected to the top of the conveyor belt support 1. There are two hydraulic cylinders 12, both fixedly connected to the top of the second support 9. There are multiple telescopic rods 13, both fixedly connected to the surface of the second support 9. There are two sorting mechanisms 14, both slidably connected inside the second support 9. The top of each sorting mechanism 14 is fixedly connected to the output end of the hydraulic cylinder 12. There are multiple rotating shafts 15, equidistantly rotatably connected inside the sorting mechanism 14. The number of rotating sleeves 16 is the same as the number of rotating shafts 15, and they are all fixedly sleeved on the outer surface of the corresponding rotating shaft 15. There are two vision sensors 17, both fixedly connected to the surface of the second support 9.

[0025] Furthermore, the sorting mechanism 14 has a bevel 18 on its surface. Two sorting mechanisms 14 are symmetrically arranged at the bottom of the second support 9. The top of the conveyor belt support 1 is fixedly connected to the first support 7. The bottom of the first support 7 is fixedly connected to the partition 8, which is located in the center of the first support 7. Multiple electric push rods 10 are fixedly connected to the surface of the first support 7. The output end of the electric push rod 10 is fixedly connected to the push plate 11. There are two push plates 11, which are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the conveyor belt support 1. The surface of the conveyor belt support 1 is provided with a conveyor belt 2. The surface of the conveyor belt support 1 is fixedly connected to a motor 3. The output shaft of the motor 3 passes through the conveyor belt support 1 and is fixedly connected to the rotating roller on the conveyor belt 2. The surface of the conveyor belt support 1 is fixedly connected to a collection box 4. The inside of the collection box 4 has two receiving slots 5. The inside of the collection box 4 is fixedly connected to a partition plate 6, which is located on both sides of the partition plate 6.

[0026] Furthermore, mold parts are conveyed one by one from the left end of conveyor belt 2. According to the part size, the electric push rod 10 is activated to adjust the position of the two push plates 11 so that the distance between the partition plate 8 and the push plate 11 is adapted to the part size. This allows the parts to be conveyed to the appropriate sorting path through the inclined surfaces on the push plate 11 and the partition plate 8, avoiding the parts being at the edge and minimizing the distance they can move on the surface of the sorting mechanism 14, thus saving time. Then, when passing in front of the second support 9, the type of part is detected by the vision sensor 17, and the lifting and lowering of the sorting mechanism 14 is controlled by the hydraulic cylinder 12. When the type of part does not match, the hydraulic cylinder 12 drives the corresponding sorting mechanism 14 to descend. During the conveying process, the parts move to the other side of conveyor belt 2 through the action of the inclined surface 18 and then fall into the corresponding receiving groove 5, realizing the automated sorting of parts. When the type of part matches, the sorting mechanism 14 moves to the top of the second support 9, and the parts pass through from below and fall into the corresponding receiving groove 5. The setting of the rotating shaft 15 and the rotating sleeve 16 reduces the friction and avoids wear when the parts move on the surface of the inclined surface 18.

[0027] Furthermore, through the coordinated operation of modular mechanical structures and intelligent sensing systems, efficient and precise automated sorting functions are achieved. The dual-channel sorting mechanism, combined with an adjustable guiding device, can adapt to the sorting needs of parts of different sizes. The visual recognition system detects the characteristics of parts in real time, and the hydraulic drive controls the selection of sorting paths to ensure that different types of parts accurately fall into the corresponding collection areas. The inclined guide design and rotating components effectively reduce frictional losses during the parts transportation process, while optimizing the sorting path and shortening the processing time. The overall layout makes reasonable use of space, and the sorting process does not require manual intervention, thus improving the automation level and sorting efficiency of the production line.
