AI Technical Summary
Existing rectangular product alignment devices suffer from poor cylinder drive response speed and thrust stability, making it difficult to achieve synchronous movement in four directions. This results in uneven force on the product and easy scratching of the surface, affecting production efficiency and product quality.
The system employs a servo motor-driven linkage assembly to synchronously retract or move the four mounting plates outwards. Combined with the contact between the rollers and the product, it achieves synchronous alignment of all four sides and improves the friction method to rolling friction, reducing friction damage.
It achieves precise alignment of rectangular products, avoids secondary offset and surface scratches, and improves production efficiency and product quality.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of rectangular product manufacturing equipment, and in particular to a device for correcting the four sides of a rectangular product. Background Technology
[0002] In the production of rectangular products such as battery cells and LCD screens, the products need to undergo multiple processing steps. When entering the next workstation, it is essential to ensure that the product's position is accurately aligned. If the product's position is off, the robotic arm will not be able to accurately deliver it to the next workstation after grasping it, which can easily lead to product collisions, scratches, or even scrap, seriously affecting production efficiency and product quality.
[0003] Currently, most alignment devices for rectangular products use cylinder-driven single or double-sided push plates for positioning. Such devices have obvious drawbacks: on the one hand, the response speed and thrust stability of cylinder-driven devices are poor, making it difficult to ensure synchronous movement in four directions, which can easily lead to secondary displacement caused by uneven force on the product; on the other hand, the push plate makes hard contact with the product, which can easily scratch sensitive products such as battery cells and LCD screens. Utility Model Content
[0004] In order to accurately align rectangular products while ensuring that their surfaces remain undamaged, this application provides a rectangular product four-sided alignment device.
[0005] The rectangular product four-sided straightening device provided in this application adopts the following technical solution:

It includes an operation panel, a carrying frame for placing rectangular products, a mounting plate, mounting blocks, rollers, and a servo motor. A column is connected to the operation panel, and the carrying frame is connected to the column. The mounting plate is slidably disposed on the operation panel, and there is one mounting block on each of the four sides of the operation panel. The servo motor is mounted on the machine. A linkage component for driving the four mounting blocks to retract or move outward synchronously is provided between the servo motor and the mounting plate. The mounting blocks are connected to the mounting plate, and the rollers are rotatably connected to the mounting blocks through stepped bolts.
[0007] Preferably, a connecting rod is connected to the lower part of the operation panel, and a connecting plate is connected to the connecting rod. The connecting plate has connecting holes for bolts connected to the machine base to pass through.
[0008] Preferably, the operation panel is connected to a guide rail, and the guide rail is provided at both ends below the mounting plate. A slider is connected to the guide rail, and the slider is connected to the mounting plate.
[0009] Preferably, the linkage component includes a turntable and a connecting rod. The turntable is connected to the end of the servo motor's output shaft that passes through the operation plate. The axis of the turntable is collinear with the axis of the servo motor. One end of the connecting rod is connected to the turntable via a stepped bolt, and the other end is connected to the mounting plate via a stepped bolt.
[0010] Preferably, the carrying frame is rectangular in shape, and the carrying frame has grooves, with a plurality of grooves on each of the four sides of the carrying frame.
[0011] Preferably, the operation panel is connected to a positioning post, and the mounting plate has a positioning groove for the positioning post to be inserted into.

[0014] In summary, this application includes the following beneficial technical effects:
[0015] This utility model provides a rectangular product four-sided alignment device. Through a servo motor-driven linkage component, four mounting plates are synchronously contracted or moved outward, achieving synchronous alignment of the rectangular product in four directions. Compared with the traditional cylinder-driven method, the servo motor has stronger driving stability, improves the secondary deviation caused by uneven force on the product, and uses rollers to contact the product, changing sliding friction to rolling friction, reducing friction on the sidewalls of the product, reducing the risk of friction damage, thereby achieving the effect of accurately aligning the rectangular product while ensuring its surface remains undamaged.

[0021] This application discloses a device for correcting the four sides of a rectangular product. (Refer to...) Figure 1 and Figure 2 A rectangular product four-sided straightening device is installed on the production line machine table. It includes an operation panel 1, a carrying frame 2 for placing rectangular products, a mounting plate 3, mounting blocks 4, rollers 5, and a servo motor 6. A column 11 is connected to the operation panel 1, the carrying frame 2 is connected to the column 11, the mounting plate 3 is slidably set on the operation panel 1, and there is one mounting block 4 on each of the four sides of the operation panel 1. The servo motor 6 is installed on the machine table, and a linkage component 7 is set between the servo motor 6 and the mounting plate 3 to drive the four mounting blocks 4 to retract or move outward synchronously. The mounting blocks 4 are connected to the mounting plate 3, and the rollers 5 are rotatably connected to the mounting blocks 4 through stepped bolts.
[0022] A connecting rod 12 is connected to the bottom of the control panel 1, and a connecting plate 121 is connected to the connecting rod 12. The connecting plate 121 has connecting holes for bolts to pass through, so that the device can be easily installed on the machine.
[0023] The control panel 1 is connected to a guide rail 13, and there is one guide rail 13 at each end below the mounting plate 3. A slider 131 is connected to the guide rail 13, and the slider 131 is connected to the mounting plate 3. The structure of the guide rail 13 and the slider 131 ensures the stability of the mounting plate 3 during movement.
[0024] The linkage component 7 includes a turntable 71 and a connecting rod 72. The turntable 71 is connected to the end of the servo motor 6 through which the output shaft passes through the operation plate 1. The axis of the turntable 71 is collinear with the axis of the servo motor 6.

[0025] The carrying frame 2 is rectangular in shape and has grooves. Several grooves are provided on the four sides of the carrying frame 2. This arrangement can reduce the contact area between the carrying frame 2 and the product and reduce the possibility of electrostatic adsorption.

The robotic arm or manual operation places the product stably on the carrying frame 2. When placing it, try to keep the product roughly in the center and avoid excessive compression between the product edge and the inner wall of the carrying frame 2. Then, the servo motor 6 drives the turntable 71 to rotate. The turntable 71 drives the four mounting plates 3 to move synchronously through the connecting rod 72. The mounting plates 3 drive the mounting blocks 4 and rollers 5 to retract inward. When retracting, the rollers 5 gradually approach the four edges of the rectangular product. After the rollers 5 contact the product edge, they gradually push the product to the center position, realizing the synchronous straightening of the four sides.
[0030] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of this utility model, and the protection scope of this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments.
