Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of wheel hub production technology, specifically to a steel rim processing and welding device. Background Technology

[0002] In the automobile production process, steel billets need to be cut, then bent into steel rings, then welded at the joints, and finally stamped into shape.

[0003] Steel ring welding is a welding process widely used in manufacturing. However, the traditional steel ring welding process is manual welding, which is difficult to position manually and is also slow. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a steel ring processing and welding device to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: It includes a robotic arm and a worktable. The robotic arm is fixed to the worktable surface. An input track and an output track are respectively inclined on opposite sides of the worktable. A first placement slot and a second placement slot, matching the input and output tracks, are provided on the worktable. A placement plate is located below the first placement slot, and the placement plate has a notch. A limiting block matching the notch is provided at the end of the input path of the input track. A driving assembly for moving the placement plate up and down is located below the placement plate. A protective panel is provided on the side wall of the worktable near the second placement slot. The robotic arm has a robotic claw, and an assembly block is provided on the claw wall facing the steel ring.

[0006] Preferably, the mechanical claw has four mechanical grippers, each with a screw hole, and the assembly block has a channel that matches the screw hole. A bolt is provided on the channel, and the assembly block is fixed to the mechanical gripper by the bolt. The assembly block also has a groove for placing the bolt.

[0007] Preferably, the height of the limiting block is higher than the height of the steel ring when the placement disc is loaded.

[0008] Preferably, the drive assembly includes a guide rail and a slider. The guide rail is fixed on both sides of the first placement slot. A fixing rod is inclined between the guide rail portion located below the worktable and the worktable. The slider is mounted on the guide rail and is connected to the placement tray.

[0009] Preferably, the output track has a plurality of evenly distributed conveying rollers along its conveying path, and the output track has a receiving groove at the end of the output path. The receiving groove has a groove wall, and the groove wall is covered with sponge.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0011] (1) This device replaces manual transportation with a robotic arm. The robotic claw connected to the robotic arm can grasp various steel ring sizes through the setting of the claw body and the assembly block, which improves work efficiency.

[0012] (2) During the welding process of the steel ring, it is necessary to press the weld joint. This device can directly perform welding through the setting of mechanical claw, and effectively avoids damage to the steel ring caused by manual clamping. When the steel ring is placed in the device, the positioning block ensures the orientation of the welding surface. When the mechanical claw grabs, the drive component of the placement plate will lift the steel ring, and then grab and transfer it. No secondary positioning is required during the entire working process.

[0013] (3) This device is equipped with an input track and an output track, which greatly reduces the transportation time of workers during loading and unloading. After the steel ring is processed, the mechanical claw releases the steel ring, and the steel ring is transported to the receiving trough through the output roller of the output track.

[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0020] Please see Figure 1 - Figure 4 As shown, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0021] The device includes a robotic arm 1 and a worktable 2. The robotic arm 1 is fixed to the surface of the worktable 2. The worktable 2 has support legs at its bottom. An input track 3 and an output track are respectively inclined on both sides of the worktable 2. The worktable 2 has a first placement slot 6 and a second placement slot 7 that are matched with the input track 3 and the output track 4. A placement plate 8 is provided below the first placement slot 6. The placement plate 8 has a notch 801. The input track 3 has a limiting block 301 that matches the notch 801 at the end of the input path. The height of the limiting block 301 is higher than the height of the steel ring when the placement plate 8 is loaded. When the placement plate 8 is lowered, the limiting block 301 can limit the welding interface of the steel ring. When the placement plate 8 is raised, the limiting block 301 is located below the placement plate 8, which is conducive to the robotic claw picking up the steel ring.

[0022] The output track 4 has several evenly distributed conveying rollers along its conveying path. The output track 4 has a receiving groove 12 at the end of its output path. The receiving groove 12 has a groove wall with a sponge attached to it. When the steel ring falls into the receiving groove 12, the sponge can effectively reduce the impact force of the fall and better protect the steel ring.

[0023] Below the placement tray 8 is a drive assembly 9 that drives the placement tray 8 to move up and down. The drive assembly 9 includes a guide rail 901 and a slider 902. The guide rail 901 is fixed on both sides of the first placement slot 6. A fixing rod 903 is inclined between the guide rail portion located below the worktable 2 and the worktable 2. The slider 302 is mounted on the guide rail 901.

[0024] The slider is connected to the placement plate 8. A protective panel 10 is provided on the side wall of the table near the second placement slot 7. The space behind the protective panel is the construction area. The protective panel is provided with an observation port and a working port. The observation port is a glass observation port. The working ports are installed on the left and right sides below the observation port.

[0025] The robotic arm 1 is equipped with a robotic claw 11. The claw wall facing the steel ring is provided with an assembly block 1101. The robotic claw has four robotic grippers. The robotic grippers are provided with screw holes 1101. The assembly block 1101 is provided with a channel 1103 that matches the screw hole 1101. The channel 1103 is provided with a bolt. The assembly block 1101 is fixed to the robotic gripper by the bolt. The assembly block 1101 is provided with a bolt placement groove 1104. The function of the assembly block 1101 is to allow for the replacement of assembly blocks of corresponding thickness according to different steel ring sizes.

[0026] The aforementioned mechanical gripper and mechanical arm are existing devices.

[0027] In use, this device transfers the steel ring to the placement tray via the input track. The welded joint of the steel ring is fixed to the limit block. After the fixing is completed, the placement tray rises, the mechanical claw grabs the steel ring, and the mechanical arm rotates at a certain angle toward the construction site. The welding worker then welds the joint. After the welding is completed, the mechanical claw releases, and the steel ring is transferred to the storage slot along the output track.

[0028] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
