Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of robotic spraying workstations, specifically a robotic spraying workstation. Background Technology

[0002] In modern manufacturing, spray painting is a crucial step in product surface treatment, widely used in automobiles, home appliances, furniture, 3C products, and many other fields. With the rapid development of industrial automation and intelligent manufacturing, traditional manual spray painting methods are gradually being replaced by automated spray painting workstations. Robotic spray painting workstations, as a representative of automated spray painting technology, have become the mainstream choice for modern spray painting operations due to their advantages of high efficiency, precision, and environmental friendliness.

[0003] In the operation of some existing small robotic painting workstations, it is usually necessary to manually feed the workpieces into the workstation for painting. Painting is usually carried out in a single station or dual station. Since the number of workpieces painted each time is small, it is necessary to frequently remove the painted workpieces and replace them with new ones, which is quite cumbersome. Therefore, we propose a robotic painting workstation device to solve the above-mentioned problems. Utility Model Content

[0006] The spray booth has a guide rail at its center, a movable plate that slides on the guide rail, and a moving component on the side wall of the guide rail for driving the movable plate. A placement rack is rotatably mounted on the top right side of the movable plate, and a docking groove is located at the middle of the top of the placement rack. Multiple hooks are located below the placement rack. A door is slidably mounted on one side of the spray booth, and a lifting component is located inside the spray booth to raise and lower the door.

[0021] 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.

[0022] Please see Figure 1-6 This utility model provides a technical solution: a robotic spraying workstation, including a spray booth 1 and a spraying robot 2. The spraying robot 2 is located inside the spray booth 1 on the right side. A guide rail 3 is located at the center of the spray booth 1, and a movable plate 4 is slidably mounted on the guide rail 3. A moving component 5 for driving the movable plate 4 is provided on the side wall of the guide rail 3. The moving component 5 includes a gear 501 and a rack 502. A drive shaft is rotatably mounted on the side wall of the guide rail 3, and the gear 501 is mounted on the drive shaft. A rack 502 that meshes with the gear 501 is located at the bottom of the movable plate 4. A motor for driving the drive shaft is provided on the guide rail 3. A placement frame 6 is rotatably mounted on the top right side of the movable plate 4. The spray booth 1 is equipped with a docking groove 7, and multiple sets of hooks 8 are provided below the placement rack 6. A box door 9 is slidably provided on one side of the spray booth 1. A groove 15 is opened in the middle of the bottom of the box door 9. The size of the groove 15 is adapted to the moving plate 4 of the guide rail 3. A lifting assembly 10 is provided inside the spray booth 1 to drive the box door 9 to rise and fall. The lifting assembly 10 includes a lead screw 101, a slider 102 and a connecting rod 103. Slides are provided on both sides of the spray booth 1. A lead screw 101 is rotatably provided in both slides. A slider 102 is slidably provided in both slides. The slider 102 is threadedly connected to the lead screw 101. A connecting rod 103 is provided at the front end of the slider 102. One end of the connecting rod 103 is connected to the box door 9. A drive assembly 11 is provided on the top of the spray booth 1.

[0023] In use, multiple sets of workpieces are placed on the hooks 8 above the placement rack 6. The motor drives the drive shaft to rotate, and the drive shaft drives the gear 501 to rotate. Since the gear 501 and the rack 502 mesh, the rack 502 drives the moving plate 4 to slide above the guide rail 3. This causes the moving plate 4 to drive the placement rack 6 above into the spray booth 1. At this time, the motor drives the lead screw 101 to rotate, which in turn drives the slider 102 to move. Simultaneously, the slider 102 drives the door 9 to descend through the connecting rod 103. Since the surface of the door 9 has a groove 15, the door 9 can better close the spray booth 1, preventing the leakage of toxic gases during the spraying process.

[0024] Drive assembly 11 includes housing 111, spline shaft 112 and spline sleeve 113. The top of the spray booth 1 is provided with housing 111, the top of housing 111 is provided with cylinder 12, and a connecting plate 16 is slidably provided inside housing 111. The output end of cylinder 12 is connected to the top of connecting plate 16. The top of housing 111 is provided with spline sleeve 113, and spline shaft 112 is provided on spline sleeve 113 for cooperation. The top of spline shaft 112 is connected to the bottom of connecting plate 16. The bottom of spline shaft 112 is provided with docking block 13. Rotating shaft 14 is rotatably provided on the top of housing 111. Pulleys are installed on rotating shaft 14 and spline sleeve 113. The pulleys are connected by transmission belt 17. The docking block 13 is pentagonal, and docking groove 7 is adapted to docking block 13.

[0025] At this time, the spraying robot 2 inside the spray booth 1 performs spraying. During the spraying process, the cylinder 12 drives the connecting plate 16 to slide inside the housing 111, causing the connecting plate 16 to drive the spline shaft 112 to descend. After the spline shaft 112 slides inside the spline sleeve 113, the docking block 13 below the spline shaft 112 is inserted into the docking groove 7 above the placement frame 6. At this time, the motor drives the rotating shaft 14 to rotate, and the rotating shaft 14 drives the transmission belt 17 to rotate. The transmission belt 17 drives the spline sleeve 113 to rotate, and the spline sleeve 113 drives the spline shaft 112 to rotate. This allows the spline shaft 112, in conjunction with the docking block 13, to drive the placement frame 6 to rotate above the moving plate 4, facilitating the spraying robot 2 to spray the workpieces above the multiple sets of hooks 8.

[0026] Working Principle: When using the robotic spraying workstation, multiple workpieces are placed on the hooks 8 above the placement rack 6. The motor drives the drive shaft to rotate, which in turn drives the gear 501. Since the gear 501 meshes with the rack 502, the rack 502 causes the moving plate 4 to slide above the guide rail 3. This causes the moving plate 4 to pull the placement rack 6 into the spraying chamber 1. Then, the motor drives the lead screw 101 to rotate, causing the lead screw 101 to move the slider 102. Simultaneously, the slider 102, through the connecting rod 103, lowers the door 9. Because the door 9 has grooves 15 on its surface, it can better close the spraying chamber 1, preventing the leakage of toxic gases during spraying. The spraying robot 2 inside the spraying chamber 1 then performs the spraying. During the coating process, the cylinder 12 drives the connecting plate 16 to slide inside the housing 111, causing the connecting plate 16 to drive the spline shaft 112 to descend. After the spline shaft 112 slides inside the spline sleeve 113, the mating block 13 below the spline shaft 112 is inserted into the mating groove 7 above the placement frame 6. At this time, the motor drives the rotating shaft 14 to rotate, and the rotating shaft 14 drives the transmission belt 17 to rotate. The transmission belt 17 drives the spline sleeve 113 to rotate, and the spline sleeve 113 drives the spline shaft 112 to rotate. This causes the spline shaft 112, in conjunction with the mating block 13, to drive the placement frame 6 to rotate above the moving plate 4, facilitating the spraying robot 2 to spray the workpieces above the multiple sets of hooks 8, thereby completing a series of tasks. The contents not described in detail in this specification are existing technologies known to those skilled in the art.

Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description.
