Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of engineering processing equipment technology, and more specifically, to a material tray circumferential position moving mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] In automated production lines, it is often necessary to adjust the circumferential position of the material trays so that the material trays can be placed in different processing positions.

[0003] In the prior art, when adjusting the circumferential position of the material tray, i.e., rotating the material tray, the material tray is usually driven to rotate by transmission components such as motors and reducers. This driving method has to overcome the inertia of the motor rotor at the moment of start-up, so there is a delay in starting. However, some material trays require frequent and rapid rotation adjustment, and using such rotation adjustment devices will reduce the adjustment speed, thereby reducing production efficiency. In addition, the transmission components such as motors and reducers have high maintenance costs, which is not conducive to the long-term stable operation of the production line.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary for the inventors to design a new material tray circumferential position adjustment mechanism to overcome the above problems. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The main objective of this application is to provide a material tray circumferential position moving mechanism to solve the problem of low efficiency when adjusting the material tray using motor and reducer assemblies in related technologies.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this application provides a material tray circumferential position moving mechanism, including a supporting base plate and a lifting plate. A lifting assembly is fixedly arranged between the supporting base plate and the top of the lifting plate is rotatably provided with a docking plate that is opposite to the material tray. A driving assembly for driving the docking plate to reciprocate circumferentially is fixedly arranged between the docking plate and the lifting plate.

[0007] Optionally, a positioning shaft is fixedly provided at the top of the lifting plate, and a rotating sleeve that is rotatably connected to the positioning shaft is fixedly provided at the bottom of the docking plate. A bearing assembly is also fixedly provided between the rotating sleeve and the positioning shaft.

[0008] Optionally, the drive assembly includes a mounting base and a telescopic assembly. The mounting base is fixedly disposed on the top of the lifting plate, and one end of the telescopic assembly is rotatably connected to the mounting base, while the other end is rotatably connected to the docking plate.

[0009] Optionally, the telescopic component is a first cylinder, a rotating pin is fixedly provided at one end of the bottom of the docking plate, a rotating ring is fixedly provided at the telescopic end of the first cylinder, and the rotating ring is rotatably connected to the rotating pin.

[0010] Optionally, an auxiliary support is also fixedly provided between the bottom of the first cylinder and the top of the lifting plate.

[0011] Optionally, the auxiliary support includes a connecting plate, the top of which is fixedly connected to the first cylinder, and a plurality of spherical casters are fixedly provided at the bottom of the connecting plate, the spherical casters being in rolling connection with the top surface of the lifting plate.

[0012] Optionally, the lifting assembly includes a second cylinder, the bottom of which is fixedly connected to the supporting base plate, and the telescopic end of which is fixedly connected to the base plate of the lifting plate.

[0013] Optionally, a guide assembly is also fixedly provided between the lifting plate and the supporting base plate.

[0014] Optionally, the guide assembly includes multiple sets of slidingly fitted guide rods and guide sleeves, with the guide rods fixedly disposed at the bottom of the lifting plate and the guide sleeves fixedly disposed on the supporting base plate.

[0015] The material tray circumferential position moving mechanism provided by this utility model has the following advantages compared with the prior art:

[0016] By using the cooperation of the first and second cylinders, the purpose of driving the material tray to rotate and adjust can be achieved, and the material tray can be reset to the initial position during processing, saving adjustment time. The cylinders have a fast response speed and are suitable for the frequent and rapid intermittent adjustment needs of the material tray, which greatly improves the efficiency of the production line. Moreover, the maintenance cost is lower than that of the motor reducer assembly. By setting auxiliary support components, the center of gravity of the docking tray will not shift after connecting the first cylinder, which will cause friction damage to the rotating connection part of the docking tray.

[0027] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, a material tray circumferential position moving mechanism includes a supporting base plate 1 and a lifting plate 2. A lifting assembly is fixedly arranged between the supporting base plate 1. A docking plate 3 that is rotatably arranged on the top of the lifting plate 2 and is opposite to the material tray is provided. A driving assembly that drives the docking plate 3 to reciprocate circumferentially is fixedly arranged between the docking plate 3 and the lifting plate 2.

[0028] Specifically, docking pins 16 are installed on the material tray to dock with the docking plate 3. The initial position of the material tray can be mounted on an external support. When the position of the material tray needs to be adjusted, the lifting assembly raises the lifting plate to the docking position with the material tray. At this time, the drive assembly drives the docking plate 3 to rotate in one direction, which in turn drives the material tray to rotate. After the material tray rotates to the target position, processing is carried out at that position. Then, the lifting assembly drives the lifting plate to descend, causing the docking plate 3 to disengage from the material tray. Then, the drive assembly drives the circumferential plate to rotate in the opposite direction to reset to the initial position, preparing for the next docking. It should be noted that the docking pins 16 on the material tray are arranged in a circumferential array. Each adjustment of the drive assembly can adjust the distance of the angular separation between two adjacent docking pins 16.

[0029] A positioning shaft 4 is fixedly installed at the top of the lifting plate 2, and a rotating sleeve 5, which is rotatably connected to the positioning shaft 4, is fixedly installed at the bottom of the docking plate 3. A bearing assembly 6 is also fixedly installed between the rotating sleeve 5 and the positioning shaft 4. Specifically, the rotation of the docking plate 3 is achieved through the rotatable connection between the positioning shaft 4 and the rotating sleeve 5.

[0030] The drive assembly includes a mounting base 7 and a telescopic assembly. The mounting base 7 is fixedly mounted on the top of the lifting plate 2. One end of the telescopic assembly is rotatably connected to the mounting base 7, and the other end is rotatably connected to the docking plate 3. The telescopic assembly is a first cylinder 8. A rotating pin 9 is fixedly mounted on one end of the bottom of the docking plate 3. A rotating ring 10 is fixedly mounted on the telescopic end of the first cylinder 8, and the rotating ring 10 is rotatably connected to the rotating pin 9. Specifically, the reciprocating rotation of the docking plate 3 is achieved by the telescopic movement of the first cylinder 8, resulting in a faster rotational response. The cooperation between the rotating ring 10 and the rotating pin 9 is used to adapt to the rotational relationship between the first cylinder 8 and the docking plate 3.

[0031] An auxiliary support is fixedly installed between the bottom of the first cylinder 8 and the top of the lifting plate 2. The auxiliary support includes a connecting plate 11, the top of which is fixedly connected to the first cylinder 8, and a plurality of spherical casters 12 fixedly installed at the bottom of the connecting plate 11. The spherical casters 12 are in rolling contact with the top surface of the lifting plate 2. Specifically, because the first cylinder 8 is connected to one end of the docking plate 3, the center of gravity of the docking plate 3 is not at the center of the rotating sleeve 5. After prolonged use, this will cause severe friction at the connection point between the rotating sleeve 5 and the positioning shaft 4, generating abnormal noise, and may even cause the docking plate 3 to deviate from its position, making it unable to dock with the material tray. Therefore, the spherical casters 12 are provided to support the first cylinder 8, preventing its weight from affecting the center of gravity of the docking plate 3. The connecting plate 11 can be fixedly connected to the cylinder by adhesive bonding, snap-fitting, or other methods.

[0032] The lifting assembly includes a second cylinder 13, the bottom of which is fixedly connected to the supporting base plate 1, and the telescopic end of which is fixedly connected to the base plate of the lifting plate 2. Specifically, the second cylinder 13 drives the lifting plate 2 to rise and fall, and the rising and falling of the lifting plate 2 can be performed during the gap when the material on the material tray is being processed, saving adjustment time.

[0033] A guide assembly is also fixedly installed between the lifting plate 2 and the supporting base plate 1. The guide assembly includes multiple sets of slidingly engaged guide rods 14 and guide sleeves 15. The guide rods 14 are fixedly installed at the bottom of the lifting plate 2, and the guide sleeves 15 are fixedly installed on the supporting base plate 1. Specifically, the guidance of the guide rods 14 and guide sleeves 15 makes the lifting of the lifting plate 2 more stable.

[0034] This embodiment uses the cooperation of the first cylinder 8 and the second cylinder 13 to achieve the purpose of driving the material tray to rotate and adjust, and can also reset the material tray to the initial position during processing, saving adjustment time. The cylinder has a fast response speed and is suitable for the frequent and rapid intermittent adjustment needs of the material tray, which greatly improves the efficiency of the production line. Moreover, it has lower maintenance costs compared to the motor reducer assembly. By setting auxiliary support components, the center of gravity of the docking tray 3 will not shift after connecting the first cylinder 8, which will cause friction damage to the rotating connection part of the docking tray 3.

[0035] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit this application. Various modifications and variations can be made to this application by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
