[0016] 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.

[0017] Please see Figure 1-3 This utility model provides a technical solution: a multi-station quick mold change device for metal parts processing, including a workbench 1. An installation assembly is provided above the workbench 1. The installation assembly includes a detachably connected movable plate 12 and a support base 13. A first slider 16 and a second slider 17 are arranged parallel to each other below the support base 13. The first slider 16 and the second slider 17 are correspondingly and movably engaged in a sliding groove 18 opened above the workbench 1. The first slider 16 is connected to a linear drive mechanism. A cylinder 22 is provided on the side of the movable plate 12. An electric gripper 23 is provided at the end of the cylinder 22. The end of the cylinder 22 passes through the movable plate 12 and is connected to a rotating mechanism. A limit mechanism is provided on the outer side of the movable plate 12.

[0018] The linear drive mechanism enables the lateral movement of the mounting components on the worktable 1. The electric gripper 23 can accurately position and clamp the workpiece. The rotating mechanism can drive the cylinder 22 to rotate, thereby realizing multi-angle processing of the workpiece. The limiting mechanism can limit and stabilize the movement of the moving plate 12, solving the problems of inconvenient adjustment of processing position, difficulty in workpiece positioning and multi-angle processing, and unstable movement of traditional devices.

[0019] In the above solution, a support plate 11 is provided at the bottom of the workbench 1. The support plate 11 can increase the bottom support area of ​​the workbench 1, improve the stability of the entire device, and solve the problem of wobbling that may occur when the workbench 1 is placed alone.

[0020] In the above scheme, a locking block 14 is provided at the bottom of the movable plate 12. The locking block 14 is engaged in the groove on the support base 13 and locked in place by the connecting bolt 15. A protective plate 31 is provided on the side of the movable plate 12. The engagement of the locking block 14 with the groove of the support base 13 and the locking of the connecting bolt 15 make the movable plate 12 and the support base 13 detachably connected, facilitating quick replacement of different movable plates 12 to meet different processing requirements. The protective plate 31 can protect the components on the side of the movable plate 12, reducing damage from external factors.

[0021] In the above scheme, the linear drive mechanism includes a lead screw 19 that is helically connected to the first slider 16, and a first motor 2 is connected to the end of the lead screw 19. The first motor 2 drives the lead screw 19 to rotate, and the lead screw 19 and the first slider 16 are helically driven, thereby driving the support base 13 and the moving plate 12 to move laterally on the worktable 1, realizing precise adjustment of the processing position, and solving the problems of low efficiency and poor accuracy of manual adjustment.

[0022] In the above solution, a collection frame 21 is provided on the inner side of the two chutes 18. The collection frame 21 can collect the debris that falls from the chutes 18 during processing, avoiding the accumulation of debris that affects equipment operation or pollutes the working environment, and solving the problem of inconvenient debris cleaning.

[0023] In the above scheme, the cylinder 22 is rotatably connected to the moving plate 12 via a bearing 24. The rotating mechanism includes a driven gear 25 connected to one end of the cylinder 22, a driving gear 26 meshing with the side of the driven gear 25, and a second motor 27 connected to the side of the driving gear 26. The second motor 27 drives the driving gear 26 to rotate, and the driving gear 26 drives the driven gear 25 and the cylinder 22 to rotate, thereby realizing the rotation of the workpiece held by the electric gripper 23, meeting the processing requirements of different angles in multi-station processing, and solving the problem of difficult workpiece rotation processing in traditional devices.

[0024] In the above scheme, the limiting mechanism includes a limiting plate 29, and a roller 3 is provided on the inner side of the limiting plate 29 to contact the upper surface of the worktable 1. The limiting plate 29 is fixedly connected to the moving plate 12 via a pull rod 28. The limiting plate 29 is connected to the moving plate 12 via the pull rod 28, and the roller 3 contacts the upper surface of the worktable 1, playing a guiding and limiting role when the moving plate 12 moves, reducing the shaking of the moving plate 12, improving the stability of the equipment operation, and solving the problem of device instability during movement.

[0025] Working principle:

[0026] This multi-station quick mold changer for metal parts processing places the device in a suitable working position, with the support plate 11 providing stable support for the worktable 1. When the moving plate 12 needs to be replaced, loosen the connecting bolts 15 and remove the locking block 14 from the groove of the support base 13 to remove the old moving plate 12. When installing the new moving plate 12, insert the locking block 14 into the groove and lock it in place with the connecting bolts 15.

[0027] When the processing position needs to be adjusted, the first motor 2 is started. The first motor 2 drives the lead screw 19 to rotate. The lead screw 19 and the first slider 16 are screwed together, thereby driving the support base 13, the moving plate 12 and the components mounted on it to move laterally along the slide groove 18 on the worktable 1. The first slider 16 and the second slider 17 slide in the slide groove 18 to ensure the smoothness of the movement. The limiting plate 29 in the limiting mechanism contacts the worktable 1 through the roller 3 to limit and guide the movement of the moving plate 12 and reduce shaking.

[0028] After the moving plate 12 moves to the appropriate position, the electric gripper 23 starts to clamp and position the metal parts. When the workpiece needs to be processed at multiple angles, the second motor 27 is started. The second motor 27 drives the drive gear 26 to rotate. The drive gear 26 meshes with the driven gear 25, driving the driven gear 25 and the cylinder 22 to rotate. The cylinder 22 rotates on the moving plate 12 through the bearing 24, thereby driving the workpiece held by the electric gripper 23 to rotate to the required processing angle.

[0029] During processing, the generated debris falls into the inner collection box 21 through the chute 18 to prevent the debris from scattering. After processing is completed, the debris in the collection box 21 can be cleaned up.

[0030] 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.
