[0025] Example

[0026] Reference Figure 1-4 This embodiment of the present invention provides a manual material receiving and unloading platform device, comprising:

[0027] The feeding assembly 100 includes a support platform 101, a testing machine host 102 fixedly connected to the middle of the support platform 101, a three-axis platform 103 fixedly connected to the side wall of the support platform 101, and a pneumatic gripper 104 adapted to be installed at the end of the three-axis platform 103. The three-axis platform 103 runs above the feed port of the testing machine host 102.

[0028] The feeding assembly 200 includes a support plate 201 fixedly connected to the side wall of the support platform 101, a conveyor belt 202 rotatably installed inside the support plate 201, a carrier 203 slidably inserted into the side wall of the support plate 201, and a baffle plate 204 inserted into the side wall of the support plate 201. The bottom of the carrier 203 contacts the upper surface of the conveyor belt 202. The side wall of the baffle plate 204 is provided with a clearance groove that cooperates with the carrier 203, and the side wall of the conveyor belt 202 is connected to the discharge port of the main unit 102 of the testing machine.

[0029] The manual feeding and unloading platform device adopts a modular design, mainly consisting of two parts: the feeding component 100 and the unloading component 200. Through the coordinated action of mechanical transmission and pneumatic control, it achieves precise feeding and orderly unloading of materials. The support platform 101 serves as the basic support structure of the entire device. The testing machine host 102, fixed in the middle of the support platform 101, is the core functional component of the entire device, used for various performance tests on materials. The feed inlet of the testing machine host 102 is aligned with the three-axis platform 103 to ensure accurate material delivery to the testing area. The three-axis platform 103 can achieve precise movement in the X, Y, and Z directions. The pneumatic gripper 104 is adapted and installed at the end of the three-axis platform 103, and can be precisely controlled by a pneumatic pressure regulating valve to ensure stable gripping of materials of different sizes and weights. The support plate 201 is fixed to the side wall of the support platform 101, providing support for components such as the conveyor belt 202, carrier 203, and baffle plate 204. The conveyor belt 202 is rotatably mounted inside the support plate 201, using a synchronous belt drive and driven by a servo motor. The surface of the conveyor belt 202 is designed with anti-slip textures to effectively prevent the carrier 203 from slipping during transport. The running speed of the conveyor belt 202 can be adjusted according to actual production needs. The carrier 203 is slidably inserted into the side wall of the support plate 201, enabling smooth movement under the drive of the conveyor belt 202. The carrier 203 has a material placement slot inside for placing the tested materials. A baffle plate 204 is inserted into the side wall of the support plate 201 to limit the movement of the carrier 203, ensuring that the carrier 203 accurately stops at the designated position.

[0030] Specifically, the feeding assembly 200 also includes a slide 205 fixedly connected to the side wall of the support platform 101, and a translation cylinder 206 fixedly connected to the middle of the slide 205. The output shaft end of the translation cylinder 206 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the baffle plate 204.

[0031] The slide table 205 is fixed to the side wall of the support platform 101 and adopts a high-precision linear guide design to provide sliding support for the translation cylinder 206. The sliding direction of the slide table 205 is perpendicular to the running direction of the conveyor belt 202, ensuring that the baffle plate 204 can accurately block and release the carrier 203.

[0032] Furthermore, the feeding assembly 200 also includes an extension plate 207 fixedly connected to the side wall of the main body 102 of the testing machine, an auxiliary cylinder 208 fixedly connected to the end of the extension plate 207, and a stop block 209 fixedly connected to the end of the output shaft of the auxiliary cylinder 208. The end of the stop block 209 slides in contact with the upper surface of the baffle plate 204, and the side wall of the end of the stop block 209 is provided with a clearance groove that cooperates with the side wall of the carrier 203.

[0033] The extension plate 207, made of high-strength aluminum alloy and fixed to the side wall of the testing machine main unit 102, provides support for the auxiliary cylinder 208. The length of the extension plate 207 is precisely calculated to ensure that the stop block 209 accurately engages with the baffle plate 204. The auxiliary cylinder 208 drives the stop block 209 to move up and down, providing auxiliary limiting for the carrier 203 and further ensuring feeding accuracy. The stop block 209 provides additional limiting when the carrier 203 is stationary, ensuring the positional stability of the carrier 203.

[0034] Furthermore, the side wall of the support plate 201 is bolted to a limit cylinder 210, and the end of the limit cylinder 210 is fixedly connected to a limit rod 211, the end of which extends to the lower side wall of the carrier 203.

[0035] The limiting cylinder 210 adopts a miniature cylinder design, which can quickly drive the limiting rod 211 to extend and retract, thereby limiting and releasing the vehicle 203. The limiting rod 211 can extend when the vehicle 203 reaches the designated position to limit the vehicle 203 and prevent it from moving further.

[0036] Preferably, a calibration cylinder 212 is fixedly connected to the end side wall of the support plate 201, and a calibration rod 213 is fixedly connected to the end of the output shaft of the calibration cylinder 212. The end of the calibration rod 213 extends to the lower side wall of the carrier 203, and the calibration rod 213 is used in conjunction with the limiting rod 211.

[0037] The calibration cylinder 212 controls the position of the calibration rod 213 to ensure the positioning accuracy of the carrier 203. It calibrates the carrier 203 when it reaches the designated position to ensure that the carrier 203 is in an accurate position. The calibration rod 213 works in conjunction with the limit rod 211 to improve the positioning accuracy of the carrier 203.

[0038] It should be noted that the feeding assembly 100 also includes a support base 105 fixedly connected to the side wall of the support platform 101, a tray 106 rotatably mounted on the end of the support base 105, and a material tray 107 inserted into the end side wall of the tray 106. The material tray 107 is symmetrically mounted on the end side wall of the tray 106, and the tray 106 is located in the working area of ​​the three-axis platform 103. A stepper motor 108 is fixedly connected in the middle of the support base 105, and the output shaft of the stepper motor 108 is connected to the central shaft of the tray 106 through a coupling.

[0039] The support base 105 is fixed to the side wall of the support platform 101, providing stable support for the tray 106. The rotation angle of the tray 106 can be precisely controlled by the stepper motor 108 to achieve the position switching of the material tray 107. The material tray 107 is provided with multiple material placement slots for neatly arranging the materials to be tested.

[0040] During operation, after the equipment is started, all cylinders are in their initial positions, the conveyor belt 202 stops running, the pallet 106 is at its initial angle, and the material tray 107 is ready to be loaded. The operator prepares the material to be tested by neatly placing it in the material placement slot of the material tray 107. The material tray rotation stepper motor 108 starts, driving the pallet 106 to rotate, moving the material tray 107 containing the material to the working area of ​​the three-axis platform 103. The material gripping three-axis platform 103 moves above the material tray 107 according to a preset program, and the pneumatic gripper 104 descends and grips the material. The material loading three-axis platform 103 carries the material to the feed inlet of the testing machine host 102, places the material into the feed inlet, and completes one loading operation.

[0041] After the material enters the testing machine host 102, the testing machine host 102 performs various performance tests on the material and records the test results. The carrier preparation conveyor belt 202 starts, transporting the empty carrier 203 to below the discharge port of the testing machine host 102. When the carrier 203 reaches the designated position, the limit cylinder 210 drives the limit rod 211 to extend, limiting the carrier 203; simultaneously, the calibration cylinder 212 drives the calibration rod 213 to extend, calibrating the position of the carrier 203 to ensure its accuracy. The testing machine host 102 then places the tested material into the material placement slot inside the carrier 203 through the discharge port. After the material is discharged, the limit cylinder 210 and calibration cylinder 212 retract the limit rod 211 and calibration rod 213 respectively, and the translation cylinder 206 moves the baffle plate 204, releasing it from obstruction of the carrier 203. The conveyor belt 202 continues to operate, transporting the material-loaded vehicle 203 to the next process.

[0042] In summary, this manual material handling platform device, through the coordinated operation of the three-axis platform 103 and the conveyor belt 202, achieves rapid material loading and unloading, improving production efficiency. The high-precision motion control of the three-axis platform 103 and the pneumatic gripper 104 ensures the stability of materials during transportation, reducing material damage rates. The coordinated use of the limit rod 211 and calibration rod 213 improves the positioning accuracy of the carrier 203, ensuring accurate material unloading. This device achieves automated material loading and unloading, reducing manual intervention and lowering the labor intensity of operators. Operators only need to place the material in the material tray 107, and the equipment can automatically complete subsequent loading, testing, and unloading operations.
