Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of alloy automotive parts processing platforms, and more specifically, to a mobile processing platform for alloy automotive parts. Background Technology

[0002] Alloy automotive parts are the various units that constitute the overall automotive parts processing and the products that serve automotive parts processing. Wheel hubs are a type of alloy automotive part. Currently, when drilling wheels, they need to be transported one by one to the processing platform and accurately positioned before the operation can begin. Because wheels are heavy and there are potential safety hazards during transportation, existing technology lacks a design that allows the drilling platform to move freely and flexibly to the wheel hub storage area and automatically complete the wheel hub loading, clamping, and positioning in preparation for drilling.

[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, and not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model. The present utility model will be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments:

[0026] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a mobile processing platform for alloy automotive parts includes a processing table 1, on which a mounting plate 2 and several symmetrically distributed support legs 3 are mounted. The mounting plate 2 is equipped with a liftable drilling device (not shown in the figure, using existing technology without modification). It also includes a telescopic cylinder 4, a U-shaped frame 5, rollers 6, a vision inspection component 7 (specifically, the vision inspection component 7 is either a vision sensor or an industrial camera), a robotic arm 8 (specifically, a six-degree-of-freedom robotic arm 8), an electric parallel gripper 9, and an electric chuck 10.

[0027] The telescopic cylinders 4 are symmetrically fixed at the bottom of the processing table 1;

[0028] The U-shaped frame 5 corresponds one-to-one with the telescopic cylinder 4 and is connected to it;

[0029] The rollers 6 are symmetrically fixed on the U-shaped frame 5 and the rollers 6 are spaced apart from the legs 3;

[0030] Both the visual inspection component 7 and the robotic arm 8 are mounted on the processing table 1;

[0031] The electric parallel gripper 9 is connected to the robotic arm 8;

[0032] The electric chuck 10 is fixed directly below the drilling equipment (specifically, the electric chuck 10 is an electric three-jaw chuck).

[0033] Further optimizations to the embodiments of this utility model, such as... Figure 1 As shown, a push handle 15 is provided on the processing table 1.

[0034] To improve the drilling efficiency of wheel hubs, the above-described embodiments are further refined, such as... Figure 3 As shown, a connecting roller 11 is rotatably connected to the processing table 1 via a bearing, and the connecting roller 11 is connected to a gear transmission assembly 12 fixed on the processing table 1 (the gear transmission assembly 12 consists of a servo motor, a main gear, and a secondary gear, and its working principle is existing and will not be described). One end of the connecting roller 11 is connected to a frustum 13, and several independently operating electric chucks 10 are arranged around the circumference of the frustum 13, one of which is located directly below the drilling equipment.

[0035] To improve the placement stability of the machining table 1 during the drilling process, further optimizations to the above-described embodiments are made, such as... Figure 3 As shown, the bottom of the support leg 3 is threadedly connected to a support plate 14, and the support plate 14 and the roller 6 are spaced apart.

[0036] In order to better clamp the wheel hub and avoid damage to the surface of the wheel hub, the above embodiment is further optimized by providing a rubber layer (not shown in the figure) on the clamping part of the electric chuck 10 and the jaws of the electric parallel jaw 9.

[0037] To accurately detect the extension and retraction of the telescopic cylinder 4 and ensure synchronized operation of the two telescopic cylinders 4, a further optimization of the above embodiment is implemented by installing a linear potentiometer-type displacement sensor on the cylinder barrel of the telescopic cylinder 4 (the linear potentiometer-type displacement sensor is not shown in the figure; its specific detection principle is as follows: during operation, the linear potentiometer-type displacement sensor converts the extension and retraction of the telescopic cylinder 4 into an electrical signal (i.e., a change in resistance) and feeds it back to the controller. The controller then monitors and adjusts the extension and retraction of the two telescopic cylinders 4 in real time based on the electrical signal to maintain synchronization).

[0038] To ensure the normal operation of the above-mentioned electrical components, a controller and a storage battery are installed on the processing table 1. The storage battery is connected to the above-mentioned electrical components through cables. The servo motors in the telescopic cylinder 4, drilling equipment, vision inspection component 7, robotic arm 8, electric parallel gripper 9, electric chuck 10, and gear transmission assembly 12 are all electrically connected to the controller. Several electric chucks 10 are independently electrically connected to the controller. The controller is shown in the figure but is not labeled. The storage battery and cables are not shown in the figure.

[0039] The working process of this utility model:

[0040] First, the controller controls the two telescopic cylinders 4 to operate synchronously, so that the four rollers 6 simultaneously contact the ground (at the same time, the outriggers 3 are removed from the ground). Then, the operator can move the processing table 1 in four directions by pushing the handle 15. When the processing table 1 moves to the wheel hub placement area, the vision detection component 7 takes pictures and identifies the wheel hub placement area (i.e., identifies the specific placement position and status of several wheel hubs), and then feeds the results back to the controller. After the identification is completed, the controller controls the telescopic cylinders 4 to retract, so that the outriggers 3 can contact the ground again. On this basis, in order to improve the placement stability between the processing table 1 and the ground, a support plate 14 can be installed on the outriggers 3 to increase the contact area.

[0041] Once the processing table 1 is in a stable position, the controller controls the robotic arm 8 to work in conjunction with the electric parallel gripper 9 to accurately clamp a wheel hub and transfer it to the clamping area of ​​the electric chuck 10. After placement, the controller controls the electric chuck 10 to achieve positional control of the wheel hub. After secure clamping, the wheel hub is positioned directly below the drilling equipment. The drilling equipment then descends and operates to complete the drilling process on the wheel hub. After processing, the clamping of the wheel hub is released, and the robotic arm 8 completes the unloading and placement of the next wheel hub. It should be noted that the coordinates of the position to be loaded after the robotic arm 8 clamps the wheel hub (i.e., the effective clamping area of ​​the electric chuck 10) are preset in the controller.

[0042] Based on this, multiple loading and fixing areas are provided through the cooperation of connecting roller 11, gear transmission assembly 12, frustum 13 and several electric chucks 10. The significance of this design is that the subsequent wheel hub is placed and the previous wheel hub is unloaded during the wheel hub drilling process. Thus, after the wheel hub is processed, the next wheel hub drilling process can be started without a long waiting period, thus improving processing efficiency. This design still requires the pre-setting of the unloading coordinates of a robotic arm 8, and each operation of the gear transmission assembly 12 can make an electric chuck 10 move accurately to the bottom of the drilling equipment in coordination with the wheel hub.

[0043] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The descriptions of the above embodiments and specifications are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of protection claimed by this utility model. The scope of protection of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
