An automatic feeding mechanism for the upper cover of a subframe bushing

Abstract

This utility model discloses an automatic feeding mechanism for the upper cover of a subframe bushing, comprising: a base, a feeding conveying module disposed on the upper surface of the base, and an industrial robot module and a camera module mounted on the right end of the base via a bracket. The camera module determines the posture of the upper cover of the subframe, and the industrial robot module picks up the upper cover of the subframe that meets the posture requirements from the feeding conveying module. In this utility model, the operator places the upper cover of the subframe on the feeding conveying module, which then conveys it to below the camera module. The camera module determines the posture of the upper cover of the subframe. If it meets the set requirements, the industrial robot module receives the instruction, moves to the corresponding position, picks up the upper cover, and places it on the feeding station. Upper covers that do not meet the posture requirements are conveyed to a recycling bin for recycling. This mechanism achieves a high degree of automation in feeding the upper cover of the subframe, reducing manual operation and labor intensity.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of feeding equipment technology, specifically an automatic feeding mechanism for the upper cover of a subframe bushing. Background Technology

[0002] The subframe bushing upper cover is a small component in the automotive chassis system, primarily used for securing and protecting the bushing. Its specific functions are as follows:

[0003] Fixed bushing: Ensures the bushing is in a stable position in the subframe and prevents it from shifting or falling off.

[0004] Protect the bushing: prevent dust, water and other impurities from entering, and extend the bushing's lifespan.

[0005] Vibration and noise reduction: helps the bushing better absorb vibration and noise, improving driving comfort.

[0006] Although small, the upper cover of the subframe bushing is crucial to the stability and comfort of the vehicle's suspension system and requires regular maintenance.

[0007] During the manufacturing process of the existing subframe bushing upper cover, it is necessary to feed the material into the subframe bushing upper cover. The current feeding method is mainly manual, which is labor-intensive for workers.

[0008] Therefore, we propose an automatic feeding mechanism for the upper cover of the subframe bushing to solve the problems mentioned above. Utility Model Content

[0009] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an automatic feeding mechanism for the upper cover of the subframe bushing, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0010] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an automatic feeding mechanism for the upper cover of a subframe bushing, comprising: a base, a feeding and conveying module disposed on the upper surface of the base, an industrial robot module and a camera module mounted on the right end of the base via a bracket, the camera module determining the posture of the upper cover of the subframe, and the industrial robot module grabbing the upper cover of the subframe that has a qualified posture from the feeding and conveying module.

[0011] Preferably, the base is equipped with a motor, which is connected to a synchronous belt, and the synchronous belt is connected to a feeding and conveying module.

[0012] Preferably, the base is also provided with a recycling bin, which is located at the discharge end of the feeding and conveying module.

[0013] Preferably, the feeding and conveying module includes several parallel feeding conveyor belts, which are equidistant from each other. Synchronous pulleys are provided at both ends of the feeding conveyor belts, and the synchronous pulleys on the same side are connected in series on a rotating shaft. The end of the rotating shaft is connected to the synchronous belt.

[0014] Preferably, several pairs of bushings are installed on the rotating shaft, and the bushings are located between the feeding conveyor belts.

[0015] Preferably, the upper cover of the subframe is placed on two adjacent feeding conveyor belts, and the legs of the upper cover of the subframe are inserted into the gap between the two feeding conveyor belts.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0017] The operator places the subframe upper cover onto the feeding conveyor module, which then transports it below the camera module. The camera module determines the posture of the subframe upper cover. If it meets the set requirements, the camera module sends the position coordinates of the subframe upper cover to the industrial robot module. Upon receiving the instruction, the industrial robot module moves to the corresponding position to grab the subframe upper cover and places it on the feeding station. For subframe upper covers that do not meet the posture requirements, the camera module determines that they are unqualified and does not send a signal to the industrial robot module. As the feeding conveyor module moves, subframe upper covers that do not meet the posture requirements are transported to the recycling bin for recycling. This process automates the feeding of subframe upper covers, reduces manual operation, and lowers the intensity of manual labor. Attached Figure Description

[0025] 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.

[0026] Please see Figure 1-6 This utility model provides a technical solution: an automatic feeding mechanism for the upper cover of a subframe bushing, comprising: a base 1, a feeding conveying module 4 disposed on the upper surface of the base 1 for feeding the upper cover 13 of the subframe, and an industrial robot module 2 and a camera module 3 mounted on the right end of the base 1 via a bracket. The camera module 3 determines the posture of the upper cover 13 of the subframe and transmits the determination information to the industrial robot module 2. The industrial robot module 2 grasps the upper cover 13 of the subframe that has qualified posture on the feeding conveying module 4.

[0027] The base 1 contains a motor 5, which is connected to a synchronous belt 51, and the synchronous belt 51 is connected to a feeding and conveying module 4.

[0028] The base 1 is also equipped with a recycling bin 12, which is located at the discharge end of the feeding and conveying module 4 and is used to receive the subframe upper cover 13 that has not been grabbed and whose posture is not up to standard.

[0029] The feeding conveyor module 4 includes several parallel feeding conveyor belts 7, which are equidistant from each other. Synchronous pulleys 9 are set at both ends of the feeding conveyor belts 7. The synchronous pulleys 9 on the same side are connected in series on the rotating shaft 11. The end of the rotating shaft 11 is connected to the synchronous belt 51. The rotating shaft 11 is driven to rotate by the motor 5 and the synchronous belt 51, which in turn drives the synchronous pulleys 9 to rotate, thus moving the feeding conveyor belts 7.

[0030] Several pairs of bushings 8 are installed on the rotating shaft 11. The bushings 8 are located between the feeding conveyor belts 7 and are used to limit the distance between the synchronous pulleys 9.

[0031] The upper cover 13 of the subframe is placed on two adjacent feeding conveyor belts 7, and the support legs 131 of the upper cover 13 of the subframe are inserted into the gap between the two feeding conveyor belts 7.

[0032] Working principle: The operator places the upper cover 13 of the sub-frame onto the feeding conveyor module 4, and then places the support legs 131 of the upper cover 13 of the sub-frame downwards in the gap between the two feeding conveyor belts 7.

[0033] Driven by motor 5, the upper cover 13 of the subframe is transported to the area below camera module 3. Camera module 3 determines the posture of the upper cover 13 of the subframe. If it meets the set requirements, the camera module 3 sends the position coordinates of the upper cover 13 of the subframe to industrial robot module 2. After receiving the instruction, industrial robot module 2 moves to the corresponding position to grab the upper cover 13 of the subframe and places it on the loading station. For the upper cover 13 of the subframe that does not meet the posture requirements, camera module 3 will determine that it is unqualified and will not send a signal to industrial robot module 2. As the loading and conveying module 4 moves, the upper cover 13 of the subframe that does not meet the posture requirements will be transported to recycling bin 12 for recycling.

[0034] The contents not described in detail in this specification are existing technologies known to those skilled in the art.

[0035] 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.
