Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automatic sheet metal part arrangement technology, specifically a combined automatic sheet metal part arrangement and positioning device. Background Technology
[0002] In modern industrial production, the processing and assembly of sheet metal parts are common production processes. To improve production efficiency and product quality, automated sheet metal part arrangement and positioning technology has become particularly important. However, traditional sheet metal part arrangement and positioning methods have some problems, limiting their performance and ease of operation.
[0003] Manual arrangement is inefficient.
[0004] Traditional sheet metal part arrangement typically relies on manual operation. Operators need to place the sheet metal parts one by one on a conveyor belt and manually adjust their position and angle. This method is not only inefficient but also prone to inaccurate arrangement due to human error, affecting the accuracy of subsequent processing.
[0005] Low level of automation:
[0006] Traditional sorting equipment typically lacks automation, requiring manual monitoring and operation throughout the process. This low level of automation not only reduces production efficiency but also increases labor costs and operational complexity.
[0007] Therefore, a combined automatic sheet metal part arrangement and positioning device is needed to improve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0008] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a combined automatic arrangement and positioning device for sheet metal parts to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0009] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0010] A modular automatic sheet metal part arrangement and positioning device includes a base, an arrangement conveyor belt and a feeding conveyor belt respectively installed on both sides of the upper end of the base, a mounting frame fixedly installed on the upper end of the base, and a camera fixedly installed on the lower surface of the mounting frame, and an arrangement mechanism provided on the upper end of the base.
[0011] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the arrangement mechanism includes: a rotating rod, a sliding groove, a lead screw, an internally threaded slider, a first motor, a cylinder, a second motor, a suction cup, and a third motor.
[0012] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the motor is fixedly provided with the upper end of the base, and the output end of the motor is provided with a rotating rod.
[0013] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the rotating rod has sliding grooves on both sides inside, and an internally threaded slider is slidably provided inside the sliding grooves.
[0014] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a motor is fixedly mounted on one end of the rotating rod, and a lead screw is driven at the output end of the motor.
[0015] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the lead screw is threadedly connected to the internal thread slider, and a cylinder is fixedly provided at the lower end of the internal thread slider.
[0016] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a second motor is fixedly provided at the lower end of the cylinder, and a suction cup is fixedly provided at the output end of the second motor.
[0017] As the sheet metal parts move along the feeding conveyor belt, they are photographed and identified by a camera. The connected PLC controller then controls the rotation of the lead screw driven by motor one, which in turn drives the internal thread slider to slide and adjust its position inside the groove. The control cylinder drives the suction cup to descend and hold the sheet metal parts, and the control motor three drives the sheet metal parts to rotate to the top of the arranging conveyor belt. The control motor two drives the suction cup to rotate and adjust the angle of the sheet metal parts to place them into the groove at the top of the arranging conveyor belt.
[0018] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0019] 1. In this utility model, when the sheet metal part moves through the feeding conveyor belt, it is photographed and identified by a camera. Then, the external PLC controller controls the motor to drive the lead screw to rotate, thereby driving the internal thread slider to slide and adjust its position inside the slide groove. The cylinder controls the suction cup to descend and pick up the sheet metal part. The motor controls the motor to drive the sheet metal part to rotate to the upper end of the arranging conveyor belt. The motor drives the suction cup to rotate and adjust the angle of the sheet metal part to put it into the groove at the upper end of the arranging conveyor belt. Attached Figure Description
