Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of turntable technology, specifically to a multi-station turntable device. Background Technology
[0002] With the rapid development of intelligent manufacturing, the penetration rate of automated equipment in production systems continues to increase. As a typical mechatronics device, the rotary table mechanism, with its significant advantages such as compact structure, scientific layout, and high space utilization, has become a core component in modern assembly lines for achieving process connection, effectively improving the integration of work units while ensuring the continuity of production cycle.
[0003] It is worth noting that with the popularization of multi-variety, small-batch production models and the upgrading of precision machining requirements, in existing technologies, rotary table systems are limited by site, space, and structure. The fixtures installed on the rotary table system cannot guarantee sufficient operating space for the workstation. In use, the rotary table system cannot meet the need to process workpieces on the fixture from multiple angles. Utility Model Content
[0004] This utility model provides a multi-station turntable device to solve the above-mentioned technical problems in the prior art.
[0005] According to one aspect of the present invention, one embodiment provides a multi-station turntable device, comprising:
[0006] Turntable body;
[0007] A divider is disposed on the first end face of the turntable body and is connected to it via a transmission mechanism; the divider is used to drive the turntable body to rotate intermittently; and
[0008] The turntable body has multiple outwardly extending lugs along its edge, which are used for mounting fixtures.
[0009] Preferably, the lug and the turntable body are integrally formed.
[0010] Preferably, the lug is rectangular, and the connection between the lug and the turntable body is rounded.
[0011] Preferably, the center of the first end face of the turntable body is provided with an installation position for transmission connection with the divider, and the installation position is circular.
[0012] Preferably, a plurality of blind holes are provided in the annular area between the edge of the first end face of the turntable body and the installation position. The plurality of blind holes are evenly spaced around the central axis of the turntable body, and the blind holes are used to reduce the weight of the turntable body.
[0013] Preferably, the support ear is positioned between two adjacent blind holes.
[0014] Preferably, the center of the second end face of the turntable body is provided with an assembly hole, which cooperates with the support column of the divider.
[0015] Preferably, the second end face of the turntable body has multiple mounting holes.
[0016] Preferably, the divider is used to drive the turntable body to rotate intermittently, thereby moving the support ear and stopping at the work position corresponding to the fixture on the support ear.
[0017] Preferably, the bottom of the divider is provided with a base.
[0018] In the technical solution of this utility model, the design of the support ears allows for an operating space between two adjacent support ears. This operating space is defined as the first operating space, within which the fixtures (and workpieces on them) on both sides of the support ears can be flexibly operated and processed. Simultaneously, the support ears extend outward to have an extended end. The first side (e.g., left side), the second side (e.g., right side), and the front of the extended end all have sufficiently large operating spaces. These operating spaces are defined as the second operating space (corresponding to the first side of the extended end), the third operating space (corresponding to the front of the extended end), and the fourth operating space (corresponding to the second side of the extended end), respectively. The divider drives the turntable body to rotate, causing the fixtures on the support ears to engage / cooperate with their corresponding workstations (or different workstations). The devices at the workstations can select a favorable operating space from the four operating spaces to perform orderly operations / processes, avoiding chaotic operations, disrupted rhythms, and collisions or interference between operating equipment. This results in highly orderly and compact operation management of the operating equipment, with a fast work rhythm and high efficiency. Meanwhile, within the first, second, third, and fourth operating spaces, the fixtures (and their workpieces) on the lugs can be operated and worked on at different angles and in different postures.

[0027] Example 1
[0028] Please refer to Figure 1 , 2 This embodiment provides a multi-station turntable device, including: a turntable body, a divider 1203, and a support lug 1202 disposed on the turntable body; wherein, the divider 1203 is disposed on the first end face of the turntable body and is drive-connected; in Figure 1In the illustrated state, the divider 1203 is located below the turntable body; the divider 1203 is used to drive the turntable body to rotate intermittently; multiple lugs 1202 are provided, located on the edge of the turntable body and extending outward, and the lugs 1202 are used for mounting the fixture 1201. Due to the design of the lugs 1202, there is an operating space between two adjacent lugs 1202, which is defined as the first operating space. Within this first operating space, the fixture 1201 (and the workpiece on it) on the lugs 1202 on both sides can be operated and worked at different angles and postures. At the same time, the lugs 1202 have an extended end after extending outward. The first side (e.g., the left side), the second side (e.g., the right side), and the front of the extended end all have sufficiently large operating spaces, which are defined as the second operating space (corresponding to the first side of the extended end), the third operating space (corresponding to the front of the extended end), and the fourth operating space (corresponding to the second side of the extended end), respectively. Within the second, third, and fourth operating spaces, the fixture 1201 (and the workpiece thereon) on the support 1202 can be operated and worked on at different angles and postures. Simultaneously, the divider 1203 drives the turntable body to rotate, causing the fixture 1201 on the support 1202 to engage / cooperate with its corresponding workstation (or different workstations). The device at the workstation can choose a favorable operating space from the four operating spaces to operate / work on the workstation, avoiding chaotic operations, disrupted rhythm, and collisions or interference between operating equipment. This results in highly orderly and tightly paced operation management of the operating equipment.
[0029] like Figure 1 In one embodiment shown, a fixture 1201 is installed or designed on the lug 1202. A portion of the fixture 1201 may extend beyond the sides or the outer end of the lug 1202, increasing the installation space of the fixture 1201. The fixture 1201 is less likely to be limited by the structural design and thus its normal and stable operation is not affected. Figure 1 In the middle, the jig 1201 extends from the extended end of the support lug 1202 to the turntable body, and a part of the jig 1201 can also extend downward. More parts can be designed on the jig 1201 to meet the working requirements.
[0030] like Figure 1 , 2 In one embodiment shown, the support lug 1202 and the turntable body are integrally formed. The two surfaces of the support lug 1202 are flush with the two end faces of the turntable body, facilitating the fixed installation of the fixture 1201. Mounting holes are generally provided on the support lug 1202, and the fixture 1201 is mounted to the support lug 1202 with bolts. If the fixture 1201 needs to be changed or modified, it can be directly disassembled and replaced with a new fixture 1201, making replacement convenient and transformation quick.
[0031] like Figure 2 In one embodiment shown, the lug 1202 is rectangular, and the connection between the lug 1202 and the turntable body is rounded. The sharp corners of the extended ends of the lug 1202 are rounded.
[0032] like Figure 2 In one embodiment shown, the center of the first end face of the turntable body is provided with a mounting position that is connected to the divider 1203 in a transmission manner. The mounting position is circular. Furthermore, a plurality of blind holes 1207 are provided in the annular area between the edge of the first end face of the turntable body and the mounting position. The plurality of blind holes 1207 are evenly spaced around the central axis of the turntable body. The blind holes 1207 are used to reduce the weight of the turntable body.
[0033] like Figure 2 In one embodiment shown, the support lug 1202 is positioned between two adjacent blind holes 1207. Due to the design of the blind holes 1207, the thickness of the local cross-section of the turntable at the blind hole 1207 is reduced, naturally decreasing its strength and rigidity. Therefore, by positioning the support lug 1202 to avoid the blind holes 1207, the thickness of the support lug 1202 is kept consistent with the thickness of other areas of the turntable and higher than the cross-section. This ensures the strength and rigidity of the support lug 1202, allowing it to support a heavier fixture 1201. Preferably, when installing the fixture 1201 on the support lug 1202, care should be taken to maintain a reasonable arrangement to avoid uneven loading of the turntable body due to a slight deviation in the center, which could affect the normal operation of the turntable body and the divider 1203.
[0034] like Figure 1 In one embodiment shown, a mounting hole 1206 is provided at the center of the second end face of the turntable body, which mates with the support column 1205 of the divider 1203. When the turntable body and the divider 1203 are installed, the turntable body fits into the support column 1205 through the mounting hole 1206 and is fastened together with bolts. Preferably, the support column 1205 is provided with a positioning pin, which is used for positioning other fixtures 1201 or equipment when mounted on the support column 1205.
[0035] like Figure 1 In one embodiment shown, the second end face of the turntable body has a plurality of mounting holes. Additionally, the support column 1205 may also have a plurality of mounting holes, which are evenly spaced around the center of the support column 1205. These mounting holes are used to mount other fixtures 1201 or equipment.
[0036] like Figure 2In one embodiment shown, the divider 1203 drives the turntable body to rotate intermittently, causing the support 1202 to move and stop at the position corresponding to the fixture 1201 on the support 1202. The divider 1203 is prior art, with cam dividers 1203 being the most common, also known as intermittent dividers 1203. The cam divider 1203 is a mechanism for achieving intermittent motion, featuring high indexing accuracy, smooth operation, large torque transmission, self-locking during positioning, compact structure, small size, low noise, good high-speed performance, and long service life. It can replace traditional mechanisms such as Geneva mechanisms, ratchet mechanisms, incomplete gear mechanisms, and pneumatic control mechanisms. Generally, a base 1204 is provided at the bottom of the divider 1203 to support the divider 1203, the turntable body, etc.
[0037] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
