Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of notebook computer long foot pad production technology, specifically relating to a suction cup type removal fixture for long foot pads. Background Technology

[0002] Laptop feet, also known as laptop cooling pads, are designed to improve laptop cooling. These pads are typically attached to the four corners of the bottom of the laptop, separating the laptop from flat surfaces like desktops, increasing airflow, accelerating heat dissipation, and thus protecting the computer from overheating.

[0003] A double-injection molded long foot pad, the first injection is of PC+ABS hard rubber material and the second injection is of TPEE soft rubber material. After injection molding, the long foot pad product is ejected and removed by manual door pulling operation. Due to various unstable factors of manual removal, the long foot pad product is prone to deformation, bumps, scratches and other defects, which is inefficient and also affects the process.

[0004] To address the aforementioned issues, this application proposes a long-footed suction cup type removal fixture. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the aforementioned problems in the existing technology, this utility model provides a long-footed suction cup type removal fixture, which features reduced labor hours, improved product quality, increased production efficiency, and reduced costs.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a long foot pad suction cup type removal fixture, comprising a combination plate and several gripping plates fixedly installed at the bottom of the combination plate, wherein a suction cup is installed in the gripping plate to hold the long foot pad and adhere to the bottom of the gripping plate, an upper plate is provided above the combination plate, a connecting plate is fixedly installed on the upper plate, and a positioning pin is fixedly installed at the lower end of the combination plate.

[0007] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, both the gripping plate and the suction cup have grooves formed at their bottoms that match the top of the long foot pad.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the bottom of the gripping plate is provided with an installation groove, and the suction cup is installed in the gripping plate through the installation groove.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the gripping plate is provided with an external interface on its side, and an air passage connecting the suction cup and the external interface is provided inside the gripping plate.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the positioning pins are provided in multiple forms, and the positioning pins protrude from the lower end of the gripping plate, with the lower end of the positioning pins having a chamfer.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a connecting rod is fixed between the upper plate and the combined plate.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: when this application is installed on a robotic arm, the gripping plate is precisely attached to the long foot pad under the action of the robotic arm. At this time, the external air source connected to the external interface draws air, and the long foot pad is adsorbed to the bottom of the gripping plate through the suction cup. Then, it is taken out by the robotic arm. Compared with manual operation, the efficiency is effectively improved, and it also has the advantages of reducing working hours, reducing costs, and ensuring product yield.

[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] Example

[0021] Please see Figure 1-4This utility model provides the following technical solution: a long foot pad suction cup type removal fixture, including a combination plate 1 and several gripping plates 2 fixedly installed at the bottom of the combination plate 1. The gripping plates 2 are equipped with suction cups 3 that suck up the long foot pad and adhere to the bottom of the gripping plates 2. An upper plate 4 is provided above the combination plate 1, and a connecting plate 5 is fixed on the upper plate 4. A positioning pin 9 is fixedly installed at the lower end of the combination plate 1. In this embodiment, the efficiency is effectively improved compared with manual operation, and it also has the advantages of reducing working hours, reducing costs, and ensuring product yield.

[0022] Specifically, both the gripping plate 2 and the suction cup 3 have grooves formed at their bottoms that match the top of the long foot pad. In this embodiment, the grooves ensure the contact area, so that the long foot pad can be more stable during the removal process and will not fall off easily.

[0023] Specifically, the bottom of the gripping plate 2 is provided with an installation groove 7, and the suction cup 3 is installed in the gripping plate 2 through the installation groove 7. In this embodiment, the installation groove 7 plays a role in avoiding interference and provides a space for the suction cup 3 and the bottom of the gripping plate 2 to cooperate, thereby ensuring the reliable operation of the material picking work.

[0024] Specifically, the gripping plate 2 has an external interface 8 on its side and an air passage connecting the suction cup 3 and the external interface 8 inside the gripping plate 2. In this embodiment, the external interface 8 is connected to an external air supply device through a hose. The air supply device controls the suction and detachment of the suction cup 3, thereby achieving stable removal and convenient placement of the long foot pad.

[0025] Specifically, there are several positioning pins 9, and the positioning pins 9 protrude from the lower end of the gripping plate 2. The lower end of the positioning pin 9 is chamfered. In this embodiment, the positioning pin 9 protrudes from the gripping plate 2 and plays a guiding role before the gripping plate 2 contacts the long foot pad, ensuring that the removal action is carried out in the lower part, thereby ensuring the removal quality of the long foot pad.

[0026] Specifically, a connecting rod 6 is fixed between the upper plate 4 and the combination plate 1. In this embodiment, the setting of the upper plate 4 and the connecting rod 6 provides sufficient installation space for the connecting plate 5 and the robot, thereby facilitating maintenance and disassembly.

[0027] The working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows: the external interface 8 is connected to an external air supply device, and the external interface 8 and the suction cup 3 are interconnected.

[0028] This utility model is fixedly installed on the robotic arm via the connecting plate 5. After the long foot pad is formed, the mold is opened. At this time, the robotic arm drives the positioning pin 9 to be inserted into the positioning hole on the mold for guidance. The robotic arm drives the gripping plate 2 to move down. The bottom of the gripping plate 2 fits with the top contour of the long foot pad. At this time, the air source connected to the external interface 8 sucks the long foot pad through the suction cup 3 and attaches it to the bottom of the gripping plate 2. The robotic arm lifts up to take out the long foot pad. The positioning pin 9 is released from the mold. The long foot pad is transported to the receiving platform by the robotic arm. The suction cup 3 is released from the suction. The long foot pad is collected on the receiving platform under the action of gravity. The above steps can be repeated continuously.

[0029] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
