Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of metal wire, and more specifically to an automatic metal wire transfer device. Background Technology

[0002] In the metal processing industry, from the production and manufacturing of metal wire, such as coiling and handling after the drawing process, to subsequent product processing based on metal wire, frequent positional transfer operations of metal wire are required. In the field of metal wire production and processing, efficient and precise material transfer and bundling operations are key to ensuring smooth production processes, improving product quality, and increasing production efficiency. With the rapid development of the metal processing industry, the demand for metal wire production continues to rise, and traditional manual material transfer and bundling methods are gradually revealing many drawbacks.

[0003] Manual material handling involves extremely high labor intensity for workers, and the unavoidable variability in human operation makes it difficult to guarantee handling accuracy. Frequent handling of wires easily causes scratches and damage to the wire surface, thus affecting product quality. Furthermore, the relatively slow speed of manual operation severely restricts the improvement of production efficiency and cannot meet the needs of large-scale production.

[0004] While existing material handling equipment has alleviated the burden on manual labor to some extent, it still has many shortcomings. Some equipment has a simple material handling action, lacks flexibility, and is difficult to adapt to the material handling needs of metal wires of different specifications, shapes, and materials. Moreover, these devices lack an effective coordination mechanism when connected with the subsequent bundling process, resulting in a disconnect between the material handling and bundling processes and affecting the overall production rhythm.

[0005] In summary, developing a device that can efficiently and accurately realize the automatic transfer and bundling of metal wires, adapt to metal wires of various specifications and materials, and possess high reliability and stability has become a technical problem that the metal processing industry urgently needs to solve. This utility model aims to provide an automatic metal wire transfer device to effectively solve the problems existing in the above-mentioned prior art. Summary of the Invention

[0034] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are for illustration and explanation only and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0035] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, this utility model's automatic metal wire transfer device includes a carrying platform 10, a rotating mechanism 20, a moving mechanism 30, a positioning mechanism 40, and a sliding mechanism 50. The carrying platform 10 is used to place the material to be bundled. The carrying platform 10 is mounted on the moving mechanism 30, which moves the carrying platform 10. The rotating mechanism 20 is mounted on the carrying platform 10 and rotates the carrying platform 10. The positioning mechanism 40 is used to position the material. A bundling mechanism 60 is mounted on the sliding mechanism 50, which moves the bundling mechanism 60 to bundle the material. The above structure can achieve automatic material transfer efficiently and accurately, and can adapt to metal wires of various specifications and materials, while also possessing high reliability and stability.

[0036] In this embodiment, the binding mechanism 60 is existing technology, so it will not be described further here.

[0037] The moving mechanism 30 includes a drive motor 31, a gear 32, a rack 33, a bracket 34, a slide rail 35, and a slider 36. The rack 33 is mounted on the bracket 34, the drive motor 31 is mounted on the support platform 10, the gear 32 is connected to the drive motor 31 and meshes with the rack 33, the slide rail 35 is set on the bracket 34, and the slider 36 is fixedly mounted on the moving plate 13 of the support platform 10. The drive motor 31 controls the gear 32 to move along the rack 33 and drive the support platform 10 to move. This can accurately and quickly move materials to the designated position and complete the work efficiently and effortlessly. During the movement of the support platform 10, the slider 36 moves along the slide rail 35, which plays a role in smoothly moving the materials and increasing the stability of the movement of the support platform 10.

[0038] The carrying platform 10 includes a material support plate 11, a mounting plate 12, a movable plate 13, and a support mechanism 14. The movable plate 13 is connected to the movable mechanism 30, and the support mechanism 14 is mounted on the movable plate 13. The mounting plate 12 is supported on the support mechanism 14. The material support plate 11 is located above the mounting plate 12 and is connected to the rotating mechanism 20. The material support plate 11 is rotated by the rotating mechanism 20. The material support plate 11 is equipped with an inner circular stop post 111 and an outer circular stop post 112. Both the inner circular stop post 111 and the outer circular stop post 112 are fixed on the material support plate 11. The outer circular stop post 112 is located outside the inner circular stop post 111, so that a gap is formed between the inner circular stop post 111 and the outer circular stop post 112. After the bundled material is placed on the carrying platform 10, it is located in the gap between the inner circular stop post 111 and the outer circular stop post 112, which limits its movement and prevents the material from falling during the movement.

[0039] The support mechanism 14 includes a flange 141, a guide rod 142, a support rod 143, and a compression spring 144. The flange 141 is mounted on the mounting plate 12 and the movable plate 13. The guide rod 142 is installed between the two flanges 141 and passes through the mounting plate 12. The support rod 143 is mounted on the movable plate 13, with its upper end passing through the mounting plate 12. The compression spring 144 is sleeved on the support rod 143, with one end abutting against the mounting plate 12. When material is placed on the support plate 11, its own weight generates downward pressure, which is buffered by the compression spring 144 to prevent excessive pressure from damaging the mounting plate 12. The guide rod 142 guides the displacement of the mounting plate 12, preventing misalignment and ensuring the accuracy of the binding position, thus improving the overall precision of the device. A support block 113 is located below the material support plate 11, supporting the material support plate 11 on the support column 114. The support column 114 is fixed to the frame 41 and is located below the positioning mechanism 40. When the moving mechanism 30 moves to the binding position, the positioning mechanism 40 presses down to position the material. This downward pressure from the positioning mechanism 40 generates a certain force, which supports the material support plate 11 through the support column 114, increasing the structural strength of the device.

[0040] In this embodiment, the support mechanism 14 is provided in four sets, which are respectively installed at the four corners of the movable plate 13.

[0041] The rotating mechanism 20 includes a rotating cylinder 21, a connecting plate 22, a connecting flange 23, and a rotating shaft 24. The rotating cylinder 21 is fixed on the mounting plate 12 and is hinged to the connecting plate 22. The connecting plate 22 is connected to the rotating shaft 24. The rotating shaft 24 is mounted in the connecting flange 23 through a bearing. The connecting flange 23 is fixed on the mounting plate 12. The rotating shaft 24 is fixed to the material support plate 11. By extending and retracting the rotating cylinder 21, the connecting plate 22 is driven to rotate. The connecting plate 22 drives the rotating shaft 24 to rotate, thereby driving the material support plate 11 to rotate. This design enables the material support plate 11 to rotate, which facilitates secondary bundling of materials. In addition, the rotating shaft 24 is fitted with a bearing to reduce the friction caused by rotation, allowing the material support plate 11 to rotate easily.

[0042] The positioning mechanism 40 includes a frame 41, a pressing cylinder 42, a positioning module 43, and a guide wheel 44. The pressing cylinder 42 is located on the top of the frame 41 and is connected to the positioning module 43. The pressing cylinder 42 drives the positioning module 43 to lift and lower, thereby positioning the material and preventing it from shifting during the binding process, thus ensuring the binding effect. The guide wheel 44 is installed on the positioning module 43 and moves along the frame 41. During the lifting and lowering process, the positioning module 43 is guided by the guide wheel 44 to ensure the stability of the lifting and lowering of the positioning module 43. At the same time, the guide wheel 44 also plays an auxiliary role in movement, making the lifting and lowering of the positioning module 43 more stable.

[0043] The positioning module 43 includes an upper connecting plate 431, a middle connecting plate 432, a lower connecting plate 433, and a fixed shaft 434. The upper connecting plate 431 is connected to the pressing cylinder 42. The upper connecting plate 431, the middle connecting plate 432, and the lower connecting plate 433 are fixed by the fixed shaft 434. The lower connecting plate 433 is used to position the material. The positioning module 43 presses down and fixes the material through the above mechanism. The positioning module 43 is square and has an upper connecting plate 431, a middle connecting plate 432, a lower connecting plate 433, and a fixed shaft 434, which can better fix the material.

[0044] like Figure 6 As shown, four through holes are provided at the four corners of the lower connecting plate 433 corresponding to the outer circular stop posts 112. When the positioning module 43 is pressed down, the outer circular stop posts 112 pass through the through holes on the lower connecting plate 433 to ensure the accuracy of the positioning module 43 pressing down.

[0045] The sliding mechanism 50 includes a sliding frame 51, a sliding track 52, a moving block 53, a sliding cylinder 54, and a sliding plate 55. The sliding track 52 is set on the sliding frame 51, and the moving block 53 is installed at the bottom of the sliding plate 55. The moving block 53 moves along the sliding track 52. The binding mechanism 60 is installed on the sliding plate 55, and the sliding cylinder 54 is connected to the sliding plate 55. The sliding plate 55 is controlled by the extension and retraction control of the sliding cylinder 54 to drive the binding mechanism 60 to move, which saves time and effort and reduces labor costs.

[0046] In use, this invention first places the wire onto the support plate 11 using a robotic arm or other means, positioning it in the gap between the inner circular stop post 111 and the outer circular stop post 112. Then, the moving mechanism 30 moves the wire. Once it reaches the designated position, the pressing cylinder 42 drives the positioning module 43 to press down, positioning the wire. Next, the sliding cylinder 54 moves the bundling mechanism 60 to the bundling position, where the bundling mechanism 60 performs the first bundling. After the first bundling is completed, the pressing cylinder 42 drives the positioning module 43 to position the wire. Module 43 rises, and then the rotating mechanism 20 rotates the material support plate 11. In this embodiment, the rotating motor controls the material support plate 11 to rotate 90°. Then, the pressing cylinder 42 drives the positioning module 43 to press down again, using the positioning module 43 to position the wire. Then, the sliding cylinder 54 drives the bundling mechanism 60 to move to the bundling position, and the bundling mechanism 60 performs a second bundling of the wire to ensure the bundling is firm. After bundling is completed, the pressing cylinder 42 drives the positioning module 43 to rise, and the moving mechanism 30 drives the bundled wire back to the starting position.

[0047] The embodiments of this utility model are not limited thereto. Based on the above embodiments of this utility model, using conventional technical knowledge and common methods in the field, without departing from the basic technical idea of ​​this utility model and without conflict, the above preferred embodiments can be modified, replaced or combined in various other forms. All other embodiments obtained fall within the scope of protection of this utility model.
