[0002] In the processing of automotive parts, it is usually necessary to scan and label the finished parts to facilitate their classification and use, and to make them traceable.

[0003] A patent with authorization announcement number CN210734736U published on the China Patent Network discloses an automatic barcode scanning and labeling device. This device includes a cabinet, a labeling mechanism, a positioning mold base, an error-proofing detection mechanism, a barcode scanning mechanism, a printer, and a clamping mechanism. The cabinet has a platform at the top, and the positioning mold base is mounted on top of the platform. The clamping mechanism includes a clamping cylinder and a pressure plate connected to the cylinder. A clearance groove is provided above the platform. A support arm is vertically mounted on the front side of the printer, extending upwards through the clearance groove. The labeling mechanism includes a rotary cylinder, a turntable, a double cylinder, and a suction cup. The error-proofing detection mechanism is located near the positioning mold base and includes a mounting base and two fiber optic sensors arranged side-by-side inside the mounting base.

This automatic barcode scanning and labeling device can automatically scan and label automotive parts, improving work efficiency and reducing production costs compared to manual barcode scanning and labeling.

[0004] However, the automatic barcode scanning and labeling equipment does not have a fixture, making it impossible to position and fix the car grille. This makes it prone to labeling errors due to displacement or flipping during processing, resulting in poor processing consistency. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of this, the present invention provides a barcode scanning and marking device for automobile grilles to solve the above problems.

[0006] A barcode scanning and marking device for automotive grilles includes a printer and a barcode scanner. It comprises a main body and a fixture flipping mechanism mounted on the main body. The main body includes a machine base, a side plate connected to the machine base, and a top plate connected to the other side of the side plate. The machine base is equipped with at least two angle sensors and at least two locking devices. The fixture flipping mechanism includes a mounting fixture and a flipping assembly disposed below the mounting fixture. The mounting fixture includes a base plate and multiple fixing blocks disposed on the base plate. The mounting fixture is used for positioning the product. The flipping assembly includes a flipping frame mounted on the machine base, a second angle sensor disposed below the flipping frame, a rotating shaft connected to the flipping frame, and two handles disposed on both sides of the flipping frame. The flipping frame includes an upper frame and two support frames fixedly disposed below the upper frame. The upper frame is fixedly connected to the base plate of the mounting fixture, and a connecting plate is provided on the side of the upper frame away from the side plate. After the flipping frame is flipped to an inclined position, the connecting plate is fixedly connected to the machine base by fasteners. At least one locking plate corresponding to the locking device is provided below the support frame facing the side plate. When the flipping frame is flipped to a horizontal state, the locking plate is supported and locked by the locking device.

[0007] Furthermore, the support frame consists of a plurality of support rods disposed below the upper frame and a connecting rod connecting the plurality of support rods.

[0008] Furthermore, the rotating shaft is movably sleeved on the inner circumference of multiple mounting seats via bearings, and is fixedly mounted on the machine base via the mounting seats. The rotating shaft is connected to the upper frame via multiple rotating rods, and blocking blocks are provided at both ends of the rotating shaft.

[0009] Furthermore, the rotating shaft is provided with a plurality of sliding grooves and a plurality of sliding blocks disposed in the sliding grooves. The sliding grooves are disposed along the extending direction of the rotating shaft. The rotating rod is engaged with the rotating rod and the sliding blocks by means of connectors and fasteners.

[0010] Furthermore, the second angle sensor is fixedly mounted on the machine base by a mounting bracket.

[0011] Furthermore, the handrail is fixedly mounted on the blocking block of the rotating shaft, and the handrail rotates synchronously with the rotating shaft. By rotating the handrail, the position of the rotating rod is changed, thereby changing the flipping angle of the flipping frame.

[0012] Furthermore, the vehicle grille scanning and coding device also includes multiple camera assemblies mounted on the main body of the device. Each camera assembly includes multiple cameras and multiple second mounting seats fixedly mounted on the top plate. The cameras are fixedly connected to the mounting plate, and the mounting plate is movably connected to the second mounting plate.

The mounting plate, the movable slots, and the fixed slot are locked with fasteners to fix their mounting angle on the second mounting seat.

[0013] Furthermore, the vehicle grille scanning and coding device also includes an electric screwdriver mechanism movably mounted on the main body of the device. The electric screwdriver mechanism includes an electric screwdriver, which is movably mounted on the side plate via a slide rail assembly. The slide rail assembly includes a slide rail and a slider movably mounted on the slide rail. The wire portion of the electric screwdriver is wound in a wire winder, and the wire winder and the slider are fixedly connected via a mounting plate.

[0014] Compared with existing technologies, the present invention provides a car grille scanning and coding device that incorporates a fixture flipping assembly to address the need for fixture fixation during car grille scanning and coding. The operator flips the fixture using the handle, and an angle sensor confirms the correct flipping position when the grille is flat. A locking device supports the support frame, and a locking plate on the support frame locks it to the locking device, thus securing the flipping frame. After flipping to a specific angle, the flipping frame abuts against a second angle sensor to confirm the installation angle. Then, a connecting plate is fixedly connected to the machine base using fasteners to secure the flipping frame. This allows the car grille to be fixed in either an inclined or flat position for scanning, coding, or screwing. Attached Figure Description

[0021] The specific embodiments of this utility model are described in further detail below. It should be understood that the description of the embodiments of this utility model herein is not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0022] The specific embodiments of this utility model are described in further detail below. It should be understood that the description of the embodiments of this utility model herein is not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0023] Please see Figures 1 to 6 This is a structural schematic diagram of a barcode scanning and marking device for automotive grilles provided by this utility model. The device includes a main body 10, a fixture flipping mechanism 20 mounted on the main body 10, multiple cameras 30 mounted on the main body 10, and an electric screwdriver mechanism 40 movably mounted on the main body 10. It is conceivable that the device may also include other functional modules, such as product positioning sensors and lighting, which are well-known to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail here.

[0024] First, it should be noted that the barcode scanning and printing equipment for the car grille also includes a printer 600 and a barcode scanner 700. The printer 600 prints labels according to preset information, such as product model, production batch, and production date for shifts A / B. The barcode scanner 700 is located next to the printer 600. The barcode scanner 700 is moved to scan the printed labels. The barcode scanner 700 is used to determine whether the QR code can be successfully scanned. The structures of the printer 600 and the barcode scanner 700 are of general technology and will not be described in detail here.

[0025] like Figure 1As shown, the main body 10 of the equipment includes a machine base 11, a side plate 12 connected to the machine base 11, and a top plate 13 connected to the other side of the side plate 12. The machine base 11 is equipped with at least two angle sensors 111 and at least two locking devices 112. These are used to cooperate with the fixture flipping mechanism 20, which is placed flat on the machine base 11, to detect and lock the angle of the fixture flipping mechanism 20. The machine base 11 is also equipped with two flipping slots 113 to facilitate the flipping of the fixture flipping mechanism 20.

[0026] like Figure 2 As shown, the fixture flipping mechanism 20 includes a mounting fixture 21 and a flipping component 22 disposed below the mounting fixture 21.

[0027] The mounting fixture 21 includes a base plate 211 and a plurality of fixing blocks 212 disposed on the base plate 211. It is conceivable that the shape of the fixing blocks 212 varies depending on the product model. The mounting fixture 21 is used to position the product, thereby ensuring the consistency and repeatability of the production process, improving production efficiency and quality, and reducing the scrap rate.

[0028] like Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the flipping assembly 22 includes a flipping frame 221 disposed on the machine base 11, a second angle sensor 222 disposed below the flipping frame 221, a rotating shaft 223 connected to the flipping frame 221, and two handrails 224 disposed on both sides of the flipping frame 221.

[0029] The tilting frame 221 includes an upper frame 2211 and two support frames 2212 fixedly disposed below the upper frame 2211. The upper frame 2211 is fixedly connected to the base plate 211 of the mounting fixture 21 via a mounting plate and fasteners, and a connecting plate 2213 is provided on the side away from the side plate 12. After the tilting frame 221 is tilted, the connecting plate 2213 is fixedly connected to the machine base 11 via fasteners. The support frame 2212 consists of multiple support rods disposed below the upper frame 2211 and a connecting rod connecting the multiple support rods. At least one locking plate 2214 corresponding to the locking device 112 is provided below the support frame 2212 facing the side plate 12. When the tilting frame 221 is tilted to a horizontal state, the locking plate 2214 is supported and locked by the locking device 112. The structure and locking method of the locking device 112 are common technologies and will not be described in detail here. The support frame 2212, which is locked by the locking device 112, is set at the same height as the rotating shaft 223 so as to fix the flipping frame 221 horizontally.

[0030] like Figure 6 As shown, the second angle sensor 222 is fixedly mounted on the machine base 11 via a mounting bracket. It is used to detect whether the angle of the flipping frame 221 is the installation angle required for barcode scanning and coding. The second angle sensor 222 sends a signal to an indicator light when it comes into contact with the flipping frame 221. It is conceivable that by changing the installation angle of the second angle sensor 222, the angle at which the flipping frame 221 contacts the second angle sensor 222 can be changed, thereby altering the detection angle. The second angle sensor 222 is a common technology and will not be described in detail here.

[0031] The rotating shaft 223 is movably sleeved on the inner circumference of multiple mounting seats 2234 via bearings, and the mounting seats 2234 are fixedly mounted on the machine base 11. The rotating shaft 223 has blocking blocks at both ends to prevent it from slipping. The rotating shaft 223 is connected to the upper frame 2211 via multiple rotating rods 2231. The rotating shaft 223 has multiple sliding grooves 2232 and multiple sliding blocks 2233 disposed in the sliding grooves 2232. The sliding grooves 2232 are arranged along the extending direction of the rotating shaft 223. The rotating rods 2231 are engaged with the rotating shaft 223 and the sliding blocks 2233 via connectors and fasteners, allowing the tilting frame 221 to move within the sliding grooves 2232 via the sliding blocks 2233, but preventing movement in the direction of the rotation angle due to the engagement of the sliding blocks 2233.

[0032] The handrail 224 is fixedly mounted on the blocking block of the rotating shaft 223. The handrail 224 rotates synchronously with the rotating shaft 223. By rotating the handrail 224, the position of the rotating rod 2231 is changed, thereby changing the flipping angle of the flipping frame 221.

[0033] When the fixture flipping mechanism 20 is placed horizontally, the operator controls it to be parallel to the machine base 11 via the handrail 224. The fixture flipping mechanism 20 is abutted by the angle sensor 111 for angle detection and locked in place by the locking device 112. When the fixture flipping mechanism 20 is placed at an angle, the operator controls it to flip towards the machine base 11 via the handrail 224, causing the flipping frame 221 to abut against the second angle sensor 222 for angle detection, with one end fixed to the machine base 11. When the fixture flipping mechanism 20 is placed at an angle, the operator controls it to remain stationary via the handrail 224, facilitating the installation of the mounting fixture 21 by the robotic arm.

[0034] like Figure 5As shown, the camera assembly 30 includes multiple cameras 31 and multiple second mounting bases 32 fixedly mounted on the top plate 13. Each camera 31 is fixedly connected to a mounting plate, and the mounting plate is movably connected to the second mounting plate. The second mounting base 32 has two movable slots 321 on each side of the mounting plate, and a fixed slot 322 between the movable slots 321. Fasteners are used to lock the mounting plate, the movable slots 321, and the fixed slot 322 to fix their mounting angle on the second mounting base 32, thereby adjusting the field of view of the camera 31 on the machine tool 11. The camera assembly 30 is used to capture images of the product model and screws to assist in determining whether the product model matches the product to be processed and whether screws are needed on the product.

[0035] The electric screwdriver mechanism 40 includes an electric screwdriver 41. The electric screwdriver 41 is movably mounted on the side plate 12 via a slide rail assembly 42. The slide rail assembly 42 includes a slide rail 421 and a slider 422 movably mounted on the slide rail 421. The electrical wire of the electric screwdriver 41 is wound in a wire winder 43, which is fixedly connected to the slider 422 via a mounting plate. When the operator moves the electric screwdriver 41 quickly, the wire winder 43 winds the wire, preventing it from becoming tangled and hindering operation. The electric screwdriver mechanism 40 secures screws to the product after passing a barcode scan inspection. It is conceivable that the electric screwdriver 41 undergoes a torque test before use to ensure effective screw-locking.

[0036] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides a car grille scanning and coding device with a fixture flipping assembly 22 to meet the requirement of fixture fixation during car grille scanning and coding. The operator flips the fixture flipping mechanism 20 using the handle 224. When flat, the angle sensor 111 confirms whether the flipping is in place. The locking device 112 supports the support frame 2212, and the locking plate 2214 on the support frame 2212 locks it to the locking device 112, thus fixing the flipping frame 221. After flipping to a specific angle, the flipping frame 221 abuts against the second angle sensor 222 to confirm the installation angle. Then, the connecting plate 2213 is fixedly connected to the machine base 11 with fasteners to fix the flipping frame 221, thereby enabling the car grille to be fixed in either an inclined or flat state for scanning, coding, or screwing.

[0037] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions or improvements within the spirit of the present utility model are covered within the scope of the claims of the present utility model.
