[0001] This utility model mainly relates to the field of sheet metal processing technology, specifically a positioning mechanism for sheet metal processing. Background Technology

[0002] As a lightweight, high-strength building material, wood panels are widely used in modern construction and furniture manufacturing. However, during wood panel processing, due to the wide variety of sizes and angles of the cut panels, it is necessary to ensure that each panel enters the processing equipment at a specific angle and position to guarantee the accuracy and efficiency of subsequent processing. Currently, most wood panel positioning mechanisms on the market use fixed baffles or simple adjustable baffles. However, these mechanisms often cannot achieve accurate, fast, and compatible positioning when dealing with wood panels of various sizes and angles. Furthermore, existing positioning mechanisms mostly require manual operation and adjustment, limiting production efficiency and scale. To address these issues, a positioning mechanism for wood panel processing is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0019] To facilitate understanding of this utility model, a more comprehensive description of the utility model will be given below with reference to the accompanying drawings, which show several embodiments of the utility model. However, the utility model can be implemented in different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described in the text. On the contrary, these embodiments are provided to make the disclosure of the utility model more thorough and comprehensive.

When an element is referred to as being "connected to" another element, it can be directly connected to the other element or there may be an intervening element. The terms "vertical," "horizontal," "left," "right," and similar expressions used in this document are for illustrative purposes only.

[0021] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly associated with those skilled in the art to which this invention pertains. The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments and is not intended to limit the invention. The term "and / or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0022] Please refer to the appendix carefully. Figure 1-4 A positioning mechanism for board processing includes a positioning photoelectric mechanism 2 installed on one side of the conveyor line 1 for detecting the position of the board being conveyed above the conveyor line 1, and the positioning photoelectric mechanism 2 can drive a blocking mechanism 3 to intercept the board.

[0023] A movable baffle mechanism 4 is provided on one side of the photoelectric mechanism 2, and a baffle rotating assembly 6 that works in conjunction with the movable baffle mechanism 4 is installed on the top of the mounting bracket 5.

[0024] To further explain, the positioning photoelectric mechanism 2 is installed in front of or near the blocking mechanism 3 to ensure that the plank can be accurately detected when it is delivered to the designated position. The positioning photoelectric mechanism 2 plays a key role in the plank positioning mechanism, mainly used to detect whether the plank has reached the designated position. The positioning photoelectric mechanism 2 includes a transmitter, a receiver, and a signal processing circuit. Under normal conditions, the transmitter continuously emits a light beam, while the receiver is in a ready-to-receive state. When the light beam is not blocked, the receiver can receive the complete light signal. When the plank is delivered to the designated position and blocks the light beam, the light signal received by the receiver will change, such as the light intensity weakening or disappearing completely. After detecting this change, the signal processing circuit will convert it into an electrical signal and send it to the external control mechanism. The external control mechanism will then control the blocking mechanism 3 to start and block the movement of the plank.

[0025] In this embodiment, as Figure 1-2 and Figure 4 As shown, the blocking mechanism 3 is provided in two sets, and the blocking mechanism 3 is connected to the mounting bracket 5 through the positioning plate. The blocking mechanism 3 includes a baffle 301, and the blocking mechanism 3 is provided with a driving device for driving the baffle 301 to move up and down. The driving device can be an electric push rod, which is connected to an external control mechanism to facilitate the synchronous control of the driving device in the later stage.

[0026] In this embodiment, as Figure 1-3 As shown, the movable baffle mechanism 4 includes two sets of drive motors 401. The drive motors 401 are connected to an external control device, and the drive motors 401 can drive the rack plate 402 to move through gears. The rack plate 402 can drive the drive rod 403 to move, and the two sets of drive rods 403 are movably connected to the baffle body 404 through movable joints. The movable baffle mechanism 4 is provided with a limiting structure for limiting the movement direction of the drive rod 403. The limiting structure is connected to the mounting bracket 5 to facilitate its installation.

[0027] With the above structure, the drive rod 403 is connected to the baffle body 404 through a movable joint, which allows the baffle body 404 to flexibly adjust its position and angle. This flexibility helps to adapt to the processing needs of plates of different sizes and shapes. The setting of the limiting structure allows the drive rod 403 to move in a specified direction, thereby improving the overall movable baffle mechanism 4.

[0028] In this implementation, such as Figure 1-2 and Figure 4 As shown, the edge-stop rotation assembly 6 includes a push plate 601, and an adjustment motor 602 is provided inside the edge-stop rotation assembly 6 to drive the push plate 601 to rotate and adjust its tilt angle. The edge-stop rotation assembly 6 is mounted on one side of the drive frame 7, which is slidably arranged above the mounting bracket 5, and a gear drive mechanism 8 is provided on the top of the drive frame 7 to drive the drive frame 7 to move. The gear drive mechanism 8 includes a rotating gear, which rotates under the action of the gear motor 801. The rotating gear meshes with a rack 802 fixedly arranged on one side of the mounting bracket 5. An encoder can be installed at the output end of the adjustment motor 602 to detect its rotation angle. An electric push rod is provided inside the edge-stop rotation assembly 6 to adjust the height of the push plate 601. The wiring of the edge-stop rotation assembly 6 and the gear drive mechanism 8 can be used with a tank chain. Tank chains are widely used to protect cables and other pipelines and improve the appearance quality of machine tools.

[0029] With the above structure, the push plate 601 is used to contact the plate and position or guide it. The main function of the adjusting motor 602 is to drive the push plate 601 to rotate, thereby adjusting its tilt angle. The top of the drive frame 7 is provided with a gear drive mechanism 8, which is used to drive the drive frame 7 to move linearly on the mounting bracket 5.

[0030] The specific operation process of this utility model is as follows: When the wooden board is conveyed to the vicinity of the blocking mechanism 3 via the conveyor line 1, the light emitted by the positioning photoelectric mechanism 2 is blocked by the wooden board, thereby triggering a signal. This signal is then transmitted to the external control mechanism. The external control mechanism controls the action of the blocking mechanism 3 according to the preset program, causing the baffle 301 to move down and stop the wooden board, positioning the wooden board at the designated position. The movable baffle mechanism 4 offsets and moves according to the preset program. The drive motor 401 drives the rack plate 402 and the drive rod 403 to move. The different moving distances of the two sets of drive rods 403 can cause the baffle body 404 to offset. When the two drive motors 401 move at the same time, the baffle body 404 can move as a whole. The movable baffle mechanism 4 provides a basis for precise positioning of the edge rotating assembly 6. By starting the adjustment motor 602, the push plate 601 can be driven to rotate and offset according to the angle set in the program. The gear motor 801 drives the rotating gear to rotate, thereby driving the drive frame 7 and the edge rotating assembly 6 to move, so that the push plate 601 contacts one side of the wooden board, thereby completing the positioning of the wooden board.

[0031] The present invention has been described above by way of example in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the specific implementation of the present invention is not limited to the above-described manner. Any non-substantial improvement made by adopting the inventive concept and technical solution of the present invention, or the direct application of the inventive concept and technical solution of the present invention to other occasions without modification, shall be within the protection scope of the present invention.
