Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automotive parts technology, and in particular to a finned product array and a steering collector. Background Technology

[0002] Finned products are widely used in automotive heat exchange systems, such as condensers, radiators, and evaporators. Their structure typically consists of densely packed thin metal fins, requiring precise control over stacking direction, arrangement sequence, and handling stability. After finned products are formed, they usually require subsequent sorting, arraying, redirection, and collection processes to facilitate automated assembly or packaging.

[0003] In existing technologies, the arrangement and orientation of finned components mainly rely on manual operation or simple conveying devices, which have the following drawbacks and shortcomings:

[0004] Products are prone to sticking and stacking: Due to the thinness and elasticity of the fins, traditional parallel conveying and pushing methods can easily cause products to stick or overlap, affecting the subsequent gripping accuracy.

[0005] Uneven arrangement affects positioning: The free displacement of products on the conveyor belt makes it difficult for subsequent gripping equipment to accurately pick up the products, affecting the degree of automation.

[0006] Lack of coordination in the steering mechanism: Some parts are unable to achieve 90° rotation of the product, resulting in the product's posture not meeting the requirements of the next process step.

[0007] To address this issue, we propose a finned product array and a deflecting collector. Utility Model Content

[0008] The purpose of this invention is to address the problems existing in the background technology by proposing a finned product array and a deflecting collector.

[0009] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a finned product array and a turning and collecting machine, comprising a collecting platform, a feeding platform and a pusher plate, wherein the collecting platform and the feeding platform are connected to each other, a conveyor belt is driven on the feeding platform, and each pusher plate is slidably disposed above the conveyor belt by a cylinder, and working waiting positions are divided on the conveyor belt by a diverter plate.

[0010] The collection platform has a main beam on its side, a horizontal arm that slides horizontally on the main beam, a vertical arm that slides vertically on the horizontal arm, a swing table that is equidistantly mounted on the lower surface of the vertical arm, and a vacuum suction cup on the lower surface of the swing table.

[0011] The collection platform has a hopper on the side away from the conveyor belt.

[0012] Preferably, the feeding platform has a base on its side, a cylinder is mounted on the base, and a slider is mounted on the output end of the cylinder.

[0013] Preferably, the feeding platform is provided with slide bars at equal intervals above it, the slide head is slidably mounted on the slide bars, and the push plate is mounted on the slide head.

[0014] Preferably, the main beam is equipped with a lower electric cylinder, which controls the horizontal linear movement of the horizontal arm on the main beam.

[0015] Preferably, the horizontal arm is equipped with an upper electric cylinder, which controls the vertical linear movement of the vertical arm on the horizontal arm.

[0016] Preferably, a rotary motor is provided on the lower surface of the vertical arm, and the output end of the rotary motor is located on the upper surface of the swing table.

[0017] Preferably, there are three flow dividers, which are equidistantly arranged on the feeding platform and above the conveyor belt. The conveyor belt is divided into four working waiting positions by the three flow dividers.

[0018] Preferably, there are four display stands, which are arranged above the four work waiting positions.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0020] In use, the finned product array and steering collector of this utility model are connected to an external power source. After the finned products are produced, they are put into the conveyor belt structure. The pusher plate pushes the products into the array under the drive of the cylinder. Then, the products are conveyed by the conveyor belt and enter the four working waiting positions separated by the diverter plate.

[0021] At this time, the lower electric cylinder drives the horizontal arm to slide horizontally along the main beam to the designated position, and the upper electric cylinder drives the vertical arm to move vertically up and down along the horizontal arm, thereby moving the vacuum suction cup to the working waiting position to grab the product. After grabbing, the product is controlled to move to the hopper area. During the movement, the swing table rotates on the vertical arm through the rotary motor, thereby rotating the product 90 degrees during the movement and releasing it. The product falls into the hopper. In this way, the above steps are repeated to realize the product array, turning and collection operations.

[0022] This utility model uses a diverter plate in conjunction with a cylinder pushing mechanism to accurately distribute the products conveyed by the conveyor belt to multiple working waiting positions, keeping them neatly arranged and facilitating subsequent automatic grasping;

[0023] The tilting table structure is driven by a rotary motor, and the suction cup can change the product orientation after gripping, effectively meeting the specific requirements of subsequent processes for product orientation.

[0024] The array and suction cup structure work together in segments to avoid product stacking or sticking, improving gripping accuracy and product separation effect;

[0025] In summary, an orderly array of finned products was achieved. Through a suction mechanism with a multi-degree-of-freedom moving structure and a rotating platform, the products were suctioned, oriented, and precisely released. Attached Figure Description

The feeding platform 2 is equipped with a conveyor belt 3, which is driven by a variable frequency motor and is used to transport the processed fin products to the collecting area.

[0034] Each push plate 15 is slidably mounted above the conveyor belt 3 via a cylinder 13. A base 12 is provided on the side of the feeding platform 2, and a cylinder 13 is mounted on the base 12. A slider 14 is provided at the output end of the cylinder 13. Sliding rods 4 are equidistantly mounted above the feeding platform 2, and the slider 14 is slidably mounted on the sliding rods 4.

In use, the fin product array and turning collector of this utility model is connected to an external power source. After the fin products are produced, they are put into the structure of the conveyor belt 3. Driven by the cylinder 13, the push plate 15 can push the fin products to the preset position on the conveyor belt 3 to achieve a regular array of products. There are three diverter plates 5 in total. The three diverter plates 5 are equidistantly mounted on the feeding platform 2 and above the conveyor belt 3. The conveyor belt 3 is divided into four working waiting positions by the three diverter plates 5. Subsequently, the products enter the four working waiting positions separated by the diverter plates 5 under the conveying action of the conveyor belt 3, which is convenient for subsequent grabbing.

At this time, the lower electric cylinder 6 drives the horizontal arm 8 to slide horizontally along the main beam 7 to a designated position, and the upper electric cylinder 9 causes the vertical arm 10 to move vertically up and down along the horizontal arm 8, thereby moving the vacuum suction cup 17 to the working waiting position to grab the product.

The above steps are repeated to realize the product array, turning and collection operations.

[0038] A hopper 11 is provided on the side of the collection platform 1 away from the conveyor belt 3. It is used to collect the finned products that have been gripped and turned. The opening of the hopper 11 corresponds to the release position of the suction cup unit to ensure that the products fall smoothly into the hopper 11 under the action of gravity.
