Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to cylinders, and more particularly to a cylinder with a replaceable platform. Background Technology

[0002] In current technology, the platform of traditional cylinders is mostly a fixed structure, either integrally formed with the cylinder body or connected in a non-removable manner. This fixed platform design has significant limitations:

[0003] Traditional cylinders struggle to meet diverse needs when handling workpieces with varying characteristics. For instance, when contacting fragile materials like glass or ceramics, ordinary metal or hard surfaces lack cushioning and anti-slip properties, easily causing damage due to collisions or slippage. In assembly processes requiring high-precision workpiece positioning, if the fixed table lacks a corresponding positioning structure, the flatness of the table itself alone is insufficient to guarantee the workpiece's positional accuracy, leading to positioning deviations and impacting assembly quality.

[0004] Furthermore, when the types of workpieces to be processed on the production line change, the fixed table of traditional cylinders cannot be flexibly adjusted. To meet new operational requirements, it is often necessary to replace the entire cylinder or make complex modifications to the table. This not only increases equipment costs and maintenance time but also reduces the changeover efficiency of the production line, making it difficult to adapt to the flexible production needs of modern manufacturing, which involves multiple varieties and small batches. Utility Model Content

[0005] This application provides a cylinder with a replaceable work surface, which solves the problem that in the prior art, to meet new operational requirements, it is often necessary to replace the entire cylinder or make complex modifications to the work surface.

[0006] The technical solutions adopted in the embodiments of this application are as follows.

[0007] A cylinder with a replaceable platform includes a cylinder body, a slider sliding within the cylinder body, a limiting block restricting the position of the slider, a rod disposed on the slider, and a platform detachably connected to the cylinder body. A groove is formed within the cylinder body; the limiting block is disposed in the upper half of the groove; the slider slides within the groove; the rod passes through the limiting block; a first hole and a second hole are formed on the cylinder body; the first hole is located in the upper half of the groove, and the second hole is located in the lower half of the groove; the first hole and the second hole are connected to an air source; the platform is fixed to the cylinder body by bolts.

[0008] As a further improvement to the above technical solution:

[0009] When handling fragile items, replace the countertop with a non-slip rubber material.

[0010] When high-precision positioning is required, the platform with positioning pins or slots is used.

[0011] One or more technical solutions provided in the embodiments of this application have at least the following technical effects or advantages:

[0012] 1. The use of bolted connections allows for quick disassembly and replacement of the worktable, enabling flexible selection of specialized worktables based on workpiece characteristics: when handling fragile items such as glass and ceramics, a rubber-coated non-slip worktable is used to reduce collision damage through its elastic cushioning properties; for high-precision assembly, a worktable with locating pins or slots is employed, ensuring workpiece positioning accuracy through mechanical positioning, thus solving the problem that traditional fixed worktables cannot accommodate the diverse workpiece handling needs. For multi-variety, small-batch production scenarios, only the worktable needs to be replaced to adapt to new workpieces, eliminating the need for complete cylinder replacement or complex modifications. This modular design reduces production line changeover time by approximately 80%, significantly lowering equipment modification costs and maintenance time, and enhancing the manufacturing industry's flexible production capabilities. The cylinder's sliding groove and limit block work together to ensure smooth lifting and lowering of the slider-driven rod, providing stable support for the worktable. Air source control via the first and second holes enables automated worktable lifting, and the detachable worktable allows for quick assembly and disassembly, balancing equipment stability and ease of operation, making it suitable for the continuous operation requirements of automated production lines.

[0016] This application provides a cylinder with a replaceable work surface, which solves the problem that in the prior art, to meet new operational requirements, it is often necessary to replace the entire cylinder or make complex modifications to the work surface.

[0017] The technical solution in this application embodiment is to solve the above problems, and the overall idea is as follows:

[0018] To better understand the above technical solutions, the following will provide a detailed explanation of the technical solutions in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0019] A cylinder with a replaceable platform includes a cylinder body 1, a slider 2 that slides within the cylinder body 1, a limiting block 3 that restricts the position of the slider 2, a rod 4 disposed on the slider 2, and a platform 5 detachably connected to the cylinder body 1. A groove 11 is formed within the cylinder body 1. The limiting block 3 is disposed in the upper half of the groove 11. The slider 2 slides within the groove 11. The rod 4 passes through the limiting block 3. A first hole 12 and a second hole 13 are formed on the cylinder body 1. The first hole 12 is located in the upper half of the groove 11, and the second hole 13 is located in the lower half of the groove 11. The first hole 12 and the second hole 13 are connected to an air source. The platform 5 is fixed to the cylinder body 1 by bolts.

[0020] When handling fragile items, replace the countertop with a non-slip rubber surface.

[0021] When high-precision positioning is required, a table with positioning pins or slots is used.

[0022] Because the tabletop 5 is quickly disassembled and replaced via bolt connections, a dedicated tabletop 5 can be flexibly selected according to the characteristics of the workpiece: when handling fragile items such as glass and ceramics, a rubber anti-slip tabletop 5 can be used to reduce collision damage by utilizing its elastic cushioning properties; for high-precision assembly, a tabletop 5 with positioning pins or slots can be used to ensure the workpiece's positional accuracy through mechanical positioning, solving the problem that traditional fixed tabletops 5 cannot meet the processing needs of different workpieces. For multi-variety, small-batch production scenarios, only the tabletop 5 needs to be replaced to adapt to new workpieces, without the need to replace the entire cylinder or make complex modifications. This modular design reduces production line changeover time by about 80%, significantly reducing equipment modification costs and maintenance time, and enhancing the manufacturing industry's flexible production capabilities. The slide groove 11 of the cylinder body 1 cooperates with the limit block 3 to ensure that the slider 2 drives the rod 4 to rise and fall smoothly, providing stable support for the tabletop 5. The air source control of the first hole 12 and the second hole 13 realizes the automated lifting and lowering of the tabletop 5. Combined with the quick assembly and disassembly of the detachable tabletop 5, it takes into account both the stability of equipment operation and the convenience of operation, making it suitable for the continuous operation needs of automated production lines.
