Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a workpiece guiding and positioning device, and in particular to a rubber ring guiding and positioning device. Background Technology

[0002] During the production process, rubber rings need to be pasted into the workpiece at a certain position. In the past, the alignment and placement of the workpiece mainly relied on manual operation. The instability of manual operation caused deviations in the process of pasting the rubber rings, resulting in unqualified workpieces. Utility Model Content

[0003] This invention aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. To this end, this invention proposes a rubber ring guiding and positioning device, which can automatically feed and guide rubber rings, eliminating errors caused by manual operation.

[0004] A rubber ring guiding and positioning device according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a frame, a storage bin, a transfer platform, a first transfer mechanism, a positioning mechanism, and a second transfer mechanism. The storage bin is disposed on the frame and is used to store a plurality of workpieces, on which a plurality of rubber rings are placed. The transfer platform is slidably connected to the frame and is used to place the workpieces. The first transfer mechanism is disposed on the frame and is used to transfer the workpieces in the storage bin to the transfer platform. The positioning mechanism includes a positioning table and a guiding clamp. The positioning table is disposed on the frame and is used to place the rubber rings. The two clamping arms of the guiding clamp are each provided with a guiding groove at their opposite ends, and the two clamping arms of the guiding clamp are brought close to each other to guide the rubber rings on the positioning table. The second transfer mechanism is disposed on the frame and is used to transfer the rubber rings on the positioning table to a work station.

[0005] It has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0006] By sliding between the storage bin and the transfer platform, combined with the precise picking and placing of the first transfer mechanism, automated feeding is achieved. The workpiece, along with the rubber ring, is transferred to the transfer platform. After sliding, the transfer platform aligns with the positioning platform, facilitating the transfer of the rubber ring by the second transfer mechanism. This effectively replaces manual operation and eliminates errors caused by manual handling. The positioning mechanism's guide clamp uses the closing action of the clamping arms to constrain the guide groove on the rubber ring, forcing it into alignment. This facilitates the transfer of the rubber ring by the second transfer mechanism, ensuring the correct placement of the workpiece during transfer. This improves the placement accuracy of the rubber ring within the workpiece and increases the workpiece's pass rate.

[0007] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the storage bin includes a frame and a bottom plate, the bottom plate being slidably connected to the frame along the vertical direction, and the bottom plate being used to support a loading plate on which a rubber ring is placed.

[0008] According to some embodiments of the present invention, a detection device is provided at the upper end of the frame. The detection device is used to detect the load sheet in the frame. When the load sheet is detected, the first transfer mechanism transfers the load sheet in the storage bin to the transfer station.

[0009] According to some embodiments of the present invention, a receiving cylinder is also included. The receiving cylinder is disposed on the frame. After the rubber rings on the carrying sheet are removed, the first transfer mechanism can transfer the carrying sheet to the receiving cylinder.

[0010] According to some embodiments of this utility model, two pressing blocks are provided on the transfer platform. The pressing blocks are slidably connected to the transfer platform along the vertical direction and are used to press the load sheet on the transfer platform.

[0011] According to some embodiments of this utility model, the pressing block is connected to a cylinder, which is used to drive the pressing block to slide.

[0012] According to some embodiments of this utility model, a guide rail is provided on the frame, and the transfer table is slidably connected to the guide rail.

[0013] According to some embodiments of the present invention, both the first transfer mechanism and the second transfer mechanism are three-axis moving modules. The execution end of the three-axis moving module is connected to a suction cup, which is used to pick up the load sheet or rubber ring.

[0014] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the guiding clamp includes a pneumatic finger, the two output ends of which are respectively connected to two clamping arms, and the pneumatic finger is used to drive the two clamping arms to move closer or further away.

[0015] According to some embodiments of this utility model, a plurality of detectors are provided on the positioning platform, and the detectors are arranged one-to-one with the guide grooves. An avoidance opening is provided on the clamping arm, and the avoidance opening is connected to the guide groove. The detector is an infrared beam detector, and the detection light of the detector passes through the avoidance opening to detect whether a rubber ring exists in the guide groove.

[0031] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the directional descriptions, such as up, down, front, back, left, right, etc., indicate the directional or positional relationship based on the directional or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0032] In the description of this utility model, the use of "first" and "second" is only for the purpose of distinguishing technical features and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features or the order of the technical features.

[0033] In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly defined, terms such as "setting," "installation," and "connection" should be interpreted broadly, and those skilled in the art can reasonably determine the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model in conjunction with the specific content of the technical solution.

[0034] Reference Figures 1 to 4This utility model discloses a rubber ring guiding and positioning device, including a frame 100, a storage bin 200, a transfer platform 300, a first transfer mechanism 400, a positioning mechanism 500, and a second transfer mechanism 600. The storage bin 200 is disposed on the frame 100 and is used to store a plurality of carrier plates 700, on which a plurality of rubber rings 710 are placed. The transfer platform 300 is slidably connected to the frame 100 and is used to place the carrier plates 700. The first transfer mechanism 400 is disposed on the frame 100 and is used to transfer the rubber rings 710 from the storage bin 200 to the positioning mechanism 600. The carrier piece 700 is transferred to the transfer table 300; the positioning mechanism 500 includes a positioning table 510 and a guide clamp 520. The positioning table 510 is set on the frame 100 and is used to place the rubber ring 710. The two clamping arms 521 of the guide clamp 520 are each provided with a guide groove 522 at their opposite ends. The two clamping arms 521 of the guide clamp 520 are brought close to each other to guide the rubber ring 710 on the positioning table 510; the second transfer mechanism 600 is set on the frame 100 and is used to transfer the rubber ring 710 on the positioning table 510 to the work station.

[0035] It should be understood that through the sliding cooperation between the storage bin 200 and the transfer table 300, combined with the precise picking and placing of the first transfer mechanism 400, automated feeding is achieved. That is, the workpiece 700 along with the rubber ring 710 is transferred to the transfer table 300. After the transfer table 300 slides, it can be aligned with the positioning table 510, which facilitates the second transfer mechanism 600 to transfer the rubber ring 710 on the transfer table 300, effectively replacing manual operation and eliminating the errors caused by manual operation. The guide clamp 520 of the positioning mechanism 500 uses the closing action of the clamp arm 521 to constrain the guide groove 522 on the rubber ring 710, forcing the rubber ring 710 to be guided, which facilitates the second transfer mechanism 600 to transfer the rubber ring 710. When the second transfer mechanism 600 transfers the rubber ring 710, it can also place the workpiece in the correct position, improve the placement accuracy of the rubber ring 710 in the workpiece, and increase the qualification rate of the workpiece.

[0036] In some embodiments, the storage bin 200 includes a frame 210 and a base plate 220. The base plate 220 is slidably connected to the frame 210 along a vertical direction and is used to support a loading piece 700 on which a rubber ring 710 is placed. A detection device 211 is provided at the upper end of the frame 210. The detection device 211 is used to detect the loading piece 700 in the frame 210. When the loading piece 700 is detected, the first transfer mechanism 400 transfers the loading piece 700 in the storage bin 200 to the transfer table 300. It is understandable that the detection device 211 is a photoelectric sensor, mainly used to detect the carrier sheet 700. When the carrier sheet 700 is stored to a certain amount, the detection device 211 will be disconnected, so that the detection device 211 can detect the carrier sheet 700 in the storage bin 200. The detection device 211 is electrically connected to the first transfer mechanism 400 through the controller. When the carrier sheet 700 is detected to be full, the first transfer mechanism 400 will transfer the carrier sheet 700 in the storage bin 200 to the transfer station 300.

[0037] In some embodiments, a receiving cylinder 800 is also included. The receiving cylinder 800 is disposed on the frame 100. After the rubber ring 710 on the carrying sheet 700 is removed, the first transfer mechanism 400 can transfer the carrying sheet 700 to the receiving cylinder 800.

[0038] Reference Figure 2 Two pressing blocks 310 are provided on the transfer platform 300. The pressing blocks 310 are vertically slidably connected to the transfer platform 300 and are used to press the loading plate 700 on the transfer platform 300. The pressing blocks 310 are connected to a cylinder 320, which is used to drive the pressing blocks 310 to slide. It can be understood that a buffer pad is provided at the end of the pressing block 310 near the loading plate 700. The buffer pad is actually a soft pad made of rubber or sponge.

[0039] In some embodiments, a guide rail 110 is provided on the frame 100, and the transfer station 300 is slidably connected to the guide rail 110.

[0040] In some embodiments, both the first transfer mechanism 400 and the second transfer mechanism 600 are three-axis motion modules. The actuator of the three-axis motion module is connected to a suction cup, which is used to pick up the carrier plate 700 or the rubber ring 710. The so-called three-axis motion module is a common three-axis motion module, which mainly uses a set of lead screw and nut pairs to drive linear movement. The three axes refer to the X-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis, which are the three axes in the common mathematical three-dimensional coordinate system.

[0041] In some embodiments, the guide clamp 520 includes a pneumatic finger, the two output ends of which are respectively connected to two clamping arms 521. The pneumatic finger is used to drive the two clamping arms 521 to move closer or further away. A plurality of detectors 511 are provided on the positioning stage 510. The detectors 511 are arranged one-to-one with the guide grooves 522. The clamping arms 521 are provided with clearance openings 521a, which are connected to the guide grooves 522. The detectors 511 are infrared beam detectors 511. The detection light of the detectors 511 passes through the clearance openings 521a to detect whether a rubber ring 710 exists in the guide grooves 522.

[0042] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0043] Of course, this utility model is not limited to the above-described embodiments. Those skilled in the art can make equivalent modifications or substitutions without departing from the spirit of this utility model. All such equivalent modifications or substitutions are included within the scope defined by the claims of this application.
