Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of processing equipment technology, and in particular to a processing system. Background Technology

[0002] In the processing and manufacturing of electrical components, chips, and other products, the workpieces generally need to be placed on a carrier device for processing.

[0003] To improve the ease of transport, the processing system for such products is often equipped with multiple conveyor lines. One part of the conveyor line is responsible for carrying the carrier and workpiece from the initial position through the predetermined process steps to each processing station, realizing assembly line processing. After the processed workpiece is removed from the carrier, another part of the conveyor line is responsible for returning the empty carrier to the initial position for subsequent use.

[0004] However, existing processing systems often rely on manual or AGV handling to transfer cargo between different conveyor lines, resulting in low transfer efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0005] The main objective of this invention is to propose a processing system that aims to improve the transfer efficiency of a loading device in different conveyor lines with opposite conveying directions.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the processing system proposed in this utility model includes:

[0007] First conveyor line;

[0008] The second conveyor line is arranged side by side with the first conveyor line;

[0009] A transfer device includes a drive mechanism and a transfer conveyor line, the transfer conveyor line being arranged side-by-side with a first conveyor line, the drive mechanism driving and connecting the transfer conveyor line, causing the transfer conveyor line to move closer to the first conveyor line to dock with it or to move closer to the second conveyor line to dock with it; and

[0010] Multiple carrying devices are movably provided. Each carrying device is movable along either the first conveyor line or the second conveyor line. The direction of movement of the carrying device on the first conveyor line is opposite to the direction of movement of the carrying device on the second conveyor line, and the carrying device switches between the first conveyor line and the second conveyor line via the transfer conveyor line.

[0011] In one embodiment, a transfer device is provided at each end of the first conveyor line. The carrying device is transferred from the first conveyor line to the second conveyor line through one of the transfer devices, and the carrying device is transferred from the second conveyor line to the first conveyor line through the other transfer device, so as to form a circular conveying system.

[0012] In one embodiment, the first conveyor line, the second conveyor line, and the transfer conveyor line all extend in a straight line along a first direction.

[0013] In one embodiment, the first conveyor line includes a first stator extending along the first direction, the second conveyor line includes a second stator extending along the first direction, the transfer conveyor line includes a third stator extending along the first direction, the drive mechanism drives the third stator to dock with the first stator or with the second stator, and the loading device includes:

[0014] Carrying fixtures; and

[0015] The first moving element is provided with the loading device disposed on the first moving element. The first stator, the second stator, and the third stator are all configured to cooperate with the first moving element. Any one of the first stator, the second stator, and the third stator can generate an electromagnetic force with the first moving element, so as to drive the first moving element to move the loading device along any one of the first stator, the second stator, and the third stator through the electromagnetic force.

[0016] In one embodiment, the processing system further includes a processing device located on the side of the second conveyor line away from the ground, for processing workpieces carried by the loading device that moves along the second conveyor line.

[0017] In one embodiment, there are two second conveyor lines, and each second conveyor line is provided with a corresponding processing device. The driving mechanism drives the transfer conveyor line to dock with the first conveyor line or with any of the second conveyor lines.

[0018] In one embodiment, the transfer device includes two transfer conveyor lines, and the drive mechanism drives each of the transfer conveyor lines such that one of the transfer conveyor lines is connected to one of the second conveyor lines or to the first conveyor line, and the other transfer conveyor line is connected to the other second conveyor line or to the first conveyor line.

[0019] In one embodiment, the drive mechanism includes:

[0020] The fourth stator extends along a second direction, which is perpendicular to the first direction; and

[0021] The second mover is configured in conjunction with the fourth stator. There are two second movers, and each second mover drives and connects to one of the transfer conveyor lines.

[0022] In one embodiment, two second conveyor lines are disposed on opposite sides of the first conveyor line; and / or,

[0023] The processing system also includes a loading and unloading device, which is located on one side of the transfer device and is used to place the workpiece on the carrying device on the transfer conveyor line, or to remove the workpiece from the carrying device on the transfer conveyor line.

The drive mechanism drives the transfer conveyor line to move, allowing it to connect with either the first or second conveyor line. The carrying device can move along either the first or second conveyor line. When the transfer conveyor line connects with the first conveyor line, the carrying device can transfer between the first and second conveyor lines; when the transfer conveyor line connects with the second conveyor line, the carrying device can transfer between the second and second conveyor lines. By switching the connection of the transfer conveyor line with either the first or second conveyor line, the carrying device on the transfer conveyor line can be transferred between the first and second conveyor lines, thus improving the transfer efficiency of the carrying device. On the other hand, the first and second conveyor lines are arranged side by side, and the moving direction of the carrying device on the first and second conveyor lines is opposite. With the help of the transfer conveyor line that moves and switches, the entire processing system can achieve a longer conveying distance for the carrying device in a relatively compact space, which improves space utilization and reduces the footprint of the processing system.

[0045] This utility model proposes a processing system.

[0046] Please see Figures 1 to 3 , Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the structure of an embodiment of the processing system provided by this utility model Figure 1 , Figure 2 A schematic diagram of the structure of an embodiment of the processing system provided by this utility model Figure 2 , Figure 3This is a partial structural schematic diagram of an embodiment of the processing system provided by this utility model.

[0047] In one embodiment of this utility model, the processing system includes:

[0048] First conveyor line 100;

[0049] The second conveyor line 200 is arranged side by side with the first conveyor line 100;

[0050] The transfer device 300 includes a drive mechanism 310 and a transfer conveyor line 320. The transfer conveyor line 320 is arranged side by side with the first conveyor line 100. The drive mechanism 310 drives the transfer conveyor line 320 to move closer to the first conveyor line 100 to dock with it, or to move closer to the second conveyor line 200 to dock with it.

[0051] Multiple loading devices 400 are movably provided. Each loading device 400 can move along either the first conveyor line 100 or the second conveyor line 200. The direction of movement of the loading device 400 on the first conveyor line 100 is opposite to the direction of movement of the loading device 400 on the second conveyor line 200, and it can switch between the first conveyor line 100 and the second conveyor line 200 through the transfer conveyor line 320.

[0052] The processing system in this utility model includes a first conveyor line 100, a second conveyor line 200, a transfer device 300, and a loading device 400. The first conveyor line 100 and the second conveyor line 200 are arranged side by side. The transfer device 300 includes a transfer conveyor line 320 and a drive mechanism 310. The drive mechanism 310 drives the transfer conveyor line 320 to move, so that the transfer conveyor line 320 can dock with the first conveyor line 100 or with the second conveyor line 200. The loading device 400 can move along either the first conveyor line 100 or the second conveyor line 200. The transfer device 400 can move between the first conveyor line 100 and the transfer conveyor line 320 when the transfer conveyor line 320 connects to the first conveyor line 100; and between the second conveyor line 200 and the transfer conveyor line 320 when the transfer conveyor line 320 connects to the second conveyor line 200. By switching the connection of the transfer conveyor line 320 to either the first conveyor line 100 or the second conveyor line 200, the transfer device 400 on the transfer conveyor line 320 can be moved between the first conveyor line 100 and the second conveyor line 200, thus improving the transfer efficiency of the device 400. On the other hand, the first conveyor line 100 and the second conveyor line 200 are arranged side by side, and the moving direction of the carrying device 400 on the first conveyor line 100 and the second conveyor line 200 is opposite. With the help of the transfer conveyor line 320 that moves and switches, the entire processing system achieves a longer conveying distance for the carrying device 400 in a relatively compact space, which improves space utilization and reduces the footprint of the processing system.

[0053] The drive mechanism 310 can use a transmission belt or chain in conjunction with a motor to drive the transfer conveyor line 320, or it can use a linear motor to drive the transfer conveyor line 320. The first conveyor line 100, the second conveyor line 200, and the transfer conveyor line 320 can use conveyor devices of the form of belt, roller, or chain, and the conveying device 400 can move. The first conveyor line 100, the second conveyor line 200, and the transfer conveyor line 320 can also use guide rails or track grooves, and the carrying device 400 moves along the conveyor line by its own power.

[0054] In addition, the moving directions of the carrying device 400 on the first conveyor line 100 and the second conveyor line 200 are opposite. It can move on the first conveyor line 100 toward the direction of closer to the transfer conveyor line 320 and on the second conveyor line 200 toward the direction of farther away from the transfer conveyor line 320; or it can move on the second conveyor line 200 toward the direction of closer to the transfer conveyor line 320 and on the first conveyor line 100 toward the direction of farther away from the transfer conveyor line 320.

[0055] In one embodiment, a transfer device 300 is provided at each end of the first conveyor line 100. The carrying device 400 is transferred from the first conveyor line 100 to the second conveyor line 200 through one of the transfer devices 300, and the carrying device 400 is transferred from the second conveyor line 200 to the first conveyor line 100 through the other transfer device 300, so as to form a circular conveying system.

[0056] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 In this embodiment of the present invention, transfer devices 300 are respectively provided at both ends of the first conveyor line 100 (which are also the two ends of the second conveyor line 200). One transfer device 300 realizes the transfer of the carrying device 400 from the first conveyor line 100 to the second conveyor line 200, and the other transfer device 300 realizes the transfer of the carrying device 400 from the second conveyor line 200 to the first conveyor line 100, so that the first conveyor line 100, the second conveyor line 200 and the two transfer conveyor lines 320 form a circular conveying system. For example, the carrying device 400 starts from the first conveyor line 100, enters the second conveyor line 200 through the transfer conveyor line 320 of one of the transfer devices 300, moves along the second conveyor line 200 to the other transfer device 300, and then returns to the first conveyor line 100 through the transfer conveyor line 320 of the other transfer device 300 to continue moving forward. It is important to note that the "circular conveyor system" here does not refer to the conveyor line consisting of the first conveyor line 100, the second conveyor line 200, and the two transfer conveyor lines 320 forming a circle, but rather to the ability of the carrying device 400 to move in a circular manner. This circular movement of the carrying device 400 improves the automation level of the processing system, reduces downtime caused by handling or process interruptions, and helps to improve the overall production line's cycle time and conveying efficiency.

[0057] In one embodiment, the first conveyor line 100, the second conveyor line 200, and the transfer conveyor line 320 all extend in a straight line along a first direction.

[0058] Reference Figure 1 In an embodiment of this utility model, the first conveyor line 100 and the second conveyor line 200 are two parallel straight conveyor lines, and the transfer conveyor line 320 is also a straight conveyor line extending in the same direction as the first conveyor line 100 and the second conveyor line 200. All three extend along a first direction, as shown in the figure below. Figure 2The X-direction is shown in the diagram. All three conveyor lines are straight lines, with a simple structure, easy to manufacture and install, making the installation, commissioning and maintenance of the entire processing system more convenient. On the other hand, the three conveyor lines are neatly arranged, with high space utilization, making it simpler and more convenient to plan the layout in the factory or workshop. Furthermore, the transfer conveyor line 320 is a straight connection in the same direction with the first conveyor line 100 and the second conveyor line 200, which reduces the installation difficulty, makes it easy to control the connection accuracy, and reduces the vibration and impact on the carrying device 400 when it passes through the connection point, making the transfer process of the carrying device 400 more stable and reliable, and reducing the risk of the carrying device 400 falling or being damaged.

[0059] In one embodiment, the first conveyor line 100 includes a first stator 110 extending along a first direction, the second conveyor line 200 includes a second stator 210 extending along the first direction, the transfer conveyor line 320 includes a third stator 321 extending along the first direction, the drive mechanism 310 drives the third stator 321 to dock with the first stator 110 or with the second stator 210, and the loading device 400 includes:

[0060] Carrying tool 410; and

[0061] The first mover 420 and the loading fixture 410 are disposed on the first mover 420. The first stator 110, the second stator 210 and the third stator 321 are all configured to cooperate with the first mover 420. Any one of the first stator 110, the second stator 210 and the third stator 321 can generate an electromagnetic force with the first mover 420, so as to drive the first mover 420 to move the loading fixture 410 along any one of the first stator 110, the second stator 210 and the third stator 321 through the electromagnetic force.

[0062] Combination Figures 2 to 4In this embodiment of the invention, a linear motor is used to move the loading device 400 on the first conveyor line 100, the second conveyor line 200, and the transfer conveyor line 320. Each of the first conveyor line 100, the second conveyor line 200, and the transfer conveyor line 320 includes a stator, and the loading device 400 has a corresponding mover. The electromagnetic force between the mover and the stator drives the loading device 400 to move. Specifically, the first conveyor line 100 includes a first stator 110 extending along a first direction, the second conveyor line 200 includes a second stator 210 extending along the first direction, and the transfer conveyor line 320 includes a third stator 321 extending along the first direction. The driving mechanism 310 drives the third stator 321 to translate, enabling the third stator 321 to dock end-to-end with the first stator 110 or the second stator 210. Coils are provided in the first stator 110, the second stator 210, and the third stator 321. The carrying device 400 includes a first mover 420 and a carrying fixture 410. The carrying fixture 410 is mounted on the first mover 420. The first mover 420 is slidably disposed with any one of the first stator 110, the second stator 210, and the third stator 321. A permanent magnet is provided in the first mover 420. The magnetic field generated by the energized coil interacts with the permanent magnet to produce a thrust or attraction, thereby causing the first mover 420 to move the carrying fixture 410. Using a linear motor to move the carrying fixture 410 provides precise position control and smooth start and stop, which helps improve the positioning accuracy of the workpiece on the carrying fixture 410. In addition, the first mover 420 can be used in the first stator 110, the second stator 210, and the third stator 321, which improves the standardization level of the machining system and the convenience of parts replacement, thus making the maintenance of the machining system more convenient.

[0063] Specifically, in this embodiment, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 6 The second stator 210 includes multiple stator segments connected end to end. The first stator 110 has the same structure as the second stator 210, and the third stator 321 has the same structure as one of the stator segments, which further improves the versatility and interchangeability of the machining system, thereby making the maintenance of the machining system more convenient.

[0064] In one embodiment, the processing system further includes a processing device 500, which is located on the side of the second conveyor line 200 away from the ground and is used to process the workpiece carried by the loading device 400 that moves along the second conveyor line 200.

[0065] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 5In an embodiment of this utility model, the processing system further includes a processing device 500, which is disposed on the second conveyor line 200. The workpiece is placed on the carrying fixture 410 and moves along the second conveyor line 200 with the carrying fixture 410. During the movement or when it reaches a predetermined station, the workpiece is processed by the processing device 500, so that the second conveyor line 200 forms a processing line.

[0066] In one embodiment, the processing system further includes a loading and unloading device 600, which is located on one side of the transfer device 300 and is used to place the workpiece on the carrying device 400 on the transfer conveyor line 320, or to remove the workpiece from the carrying device 400 on the transfer conveyor line 320.

[0067] Reference Figures 1 to 3 as well as Figure 6 In this embodiment of the present invention, the processing system further includes a loading / unloading device 600. The first conveyor line 100 has a loading end and an unloading end at its two ends, respectively. Each loading end and unloading end is equipped with a transfer device 300, and each transfer device 300 has a loading / unloading device 600 on one side. The loading / unloading device 600 located at the loading end is responsible for the loading operation. Before the carrying device 400 is transferred to the second conveyor line 200, the loading / unloading device 600 places the workpiece to be processed on the carrying device 400, causing the carrying device 400 to move with the workpiece to be processed onto the second conveyor line 200 and along the second conveyor line 200. During the movement of the carrying device 400 or when it reaches a predetermined workstation, the workpiece to be processed on the carrying device 400 is processed by the processing device 500. The workpiece 400 continues to move along the second conveyor line 200 with the completed workpiece until it leaves the second conveyor line 200. The loading and unloading device 600 located at the unloading end is responsible for the unloading operation. Before the loading device 400 is transferred to the first conveyor line 100, the completed workpiece is moved out of the loading device 400, so that the empty loading device 400 moves to the first conveyor line 100, and then moves along the first conveyor line 100 to the loading end of the first conveyor line 100, so that the first conveyor line 100 forms a return line.

[0068] The loading and unloading device 600 can be implemented using various methods such as robotic arms and clamps. Specifically, in this embodiment, refer to... Figure 3The loading and unloading device 600 includes a robotic arm (not shown in the figure) and a gripper mechanism 610. The gripper mechanism 610 includes a support 611 and two suction cup assemblies 612 disposed on the support 611. The suction cup assemblies 612 use negative pressure to pick up and release workpieces. The two suction cup assemblies 612 are distributed at intervals along the second direction on the support 611, and the distance between the two suction cup assemblies 612 is equal to the distance between the first conveyor line 100 and the second conveyor line 200, so that the loading and unloading device 600 can simultaneously pick up and release workpieces on the two loading devices 400, realize the simultaneous loading and unloading of two workpieces, and improve the loading and unloading efficiency.

[0069] In one embodiment, there are two second conveyor lines 200, and each second conveyor line 200 is provided with a corresponding processing device 500. The drive mechanism 310 drives the transfer conveyor line 320 to connect with the first conveyor line 100 or with any of the second conveyor lines 200.

[0070] Reference Figures 1 to 3 In this embodiment of the invention, the processing system includes two second conveyor lines 200, meaning the system has two processing lines and one return line. The transfer conveyor line 320 can connect to the first conveyor line 100 and the two second conveyor lines 200 respectively, meaning the transfer conveyor line 320 can connect to three conveyor lines. This allows the loading devices 400 on both second conveyor lines 200 to be transferred to the first conveyor line 100 via the transfer conveyor line 320. The processing devices 500 on the two second conveyor lines 200 can be of the same type, performing the same processing tasks, thus improving the processing efficiency of the system. Alternatively, the processing devices 500 on the two second conveyor lines 200 can be of different types, expanding the processing capacity of the system and increasing its applicability.

[0071] In one embodiment, the transfer device 300 includes two transfer conveyor lines 320, and a drive mechanism 310 drives each transfer conveyor line 320 to be connected such that one transfer conveyor line 320 is connected to one of the second conveyor lines 200 or to the first conveyor line 100, and the other transfer conveyor line 320 is connected to the other second conveyor line 200 or to the first conveyor line 100.

[0072] Reference Figures 2 to 4In this embodiment of the invention, each transfer device 300 includes two transfer conveyor lines 320. A drive mechanism 310 drives the two transfer conveyor lines 320 to move, so that each transfer conveyor line 320 is only responsible for switching between the first conveyor line 100 and one second conveyor line 200. This improves the transfer efficiency of the transfer device 300, which in turn improves the switching efficiency of the carrying device 400 between the processing line and the return line, thereby improving the processing efficiency of the processing system. The two transfer conveyor lines 320 can move synchronously, with one transfer conveyor line 320 docking with its corresponding second conveyor line 200, and the other transfer conveyor line 320 docking with the first conveyor line 100. Alternatively, the two transfer conveyor lines 320 can move independently, as long as they do not interfere with or collide with each other.

[0073] In one embodiment, the drive mechanism 310 includes:

[0074] The fourth stator 311 extends along a second direction, which is perpendicular to the first direction; and

[0075] The second mover 312 is configured in conjunction with the fourth stator 311. There are two second movers 312, and each second mover 312 drives and connects to a transfer conveyor line 320.

[0076] Reference Figures 2 to 4 In an embodiment of this utility model, the drive mechanism 310 includes a fourth stator 311 and two second movers 312. The fourth stator 311 extends along a second direction perpendicular to the first direction, such as... Figure 2 The Y-direction is shown in the diagram. A coil is provided in the fourth stator 311, and a permanent magnet is provided in each second mover 312. The magnetic field generated by the energized coil interacts with the permanent magnet to produce a thrust or attraction, thereby causing the second mover 312 to move along the transfer conveyor line 320. Each of the two second movers 312 is equipped with a transfer conveyor line 320, allowing the two transfer conveyor lines 320 to move independently. This improves the flexibility of the transfer device 300 in transferring the load device 400. Especially when the two second conveyor lines 200 use different processing devices 500, the two second movers 312 can adapt to different movement rhythms according to the processing rhythm of the different processing devices 500. This ensures that the switching rhythm of the transfer conveyor line 320 between the first conveyor line 100 and the second conveyor line 200 corresponds to the processing rhythm, guaranteeing the smooth transfer of the load device 400.

[0077] In one embodiment, two second conveyor lines 200 are disposed on opposite sides of the first conveyor line 100.

[0078] Reference Figures 1 to 3In this embodiment of the invention, two second conveyor lines 200 are located on opposite sides of the first conveyor line 100, i.e., the return line is located in the middle of the two processing lines. When the carrying device 400 on the two processing lines moves to the middle return line via the transfer conveyor line 320, the moving distance is short. When the carrying device 400 on the return line moves to the processing lines on both sides via the transfer conveyor line 320, the moving distance is also short, thus improving the switching efficiency of the carrying device 400 between the first conveyor line 100 and the second conveyor line 200. On the other hand, the carrying device 400 transferred from the first conveyor line 100 to the transfer conveyor line 320 can choose which second conveyor line 200 to transfer to based on the availability of the second conveyor lines 200 on both sides, which helps to improve conveying efficiency and reduce the waiting time of the carrying device 400 or the idle time of the processing device 500. Specifically, the two second conveyor lines 200 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the first conveyor line 100, which has high space utilization and a regular layout, thus helping to reduce the space occupied by the processing system.

[0079] In one embodiment, the processing apparatus 500 includes at least one of an inkjet mechanism, a laser cutting mechanism, a laser welding mechanism, and a laser engraving mechanism.

[0080] In embodiments of this utility model, the processing device 500 includes at least one of an inkjet mechanism, a laser cutting mechanism, a laser welding mechanism, and a laser engraving mechanism. That is, the processing device 500 may include only one of the above four mechanisms, or it may include any two or more of them in combination. The inkjet mechanism is used to perform inkjet printing on the workpiece carried by the carrier device 400. The laser cutting mechanism uses a high-energy-density laser beam to irradiate the workpiece, causing localized melting or even vaporization. The molten or vaporized material is then blown away by an auxiliary gas, thereby achieving material cutting. The laser welding mechanism uses a laser beam to irradiate the joint of the workpiece, causing the material at the joint to melt and form a molten pool. After cooling and solidification, a weld is formed, thereby achieving material connection. The laser engraving mechanism uses a laser beam to irradiate the surface of the workpiece, causing the surface material to be removed or undergo chemical or physical changes, thereby forming the desired pattern or text on the workpiece surface.

[0081] The above description is merely an exemplary embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the scope of protection of the present utility model. Any equivalent structural transformations made based on the technical concept of the present utility model and the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the scope of protection of the present utility model.
