[0015] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model. Example 1
[0016] A high-precision feeding and positioning device for finished watches includes a frame 1, a vertical positioning mechanism 2, a horizontal positioning mechanism 3, and an inspection mechanism 4, wherein: The vertical positioning mechanism 2 is located in the middle of the frame 1 and includes a lifting platform 23 that can be vertically raised and lowered by a cylinder. The lateral positioning mechanism 3 is set on the top of the lifting platform 23, including symmetrically arranged fixed seats 32, and a horizontally movable slider 34 is movably connected inside the fixed seats 32. The inspection mechanism 4 includes a mounting frame 43 mounted on the slider 34. A drive belt 41 driven by a motor is installed inside the mounting frame 43. Multiple fasteners 45 for placing watches are installed on the outside of the drive belt 41.
[0017] Please refer to the appendix. Figure 2 Appendix Figure 3 A frame beam 11 is installed in the middle of the frame 1. The vertical positioning mechanism 2 also includes servo cylinders 21 symmetrically arranged at the bottom of the frame beam 11. A transmission rod 22 is installed at the output end of the servo cylinder 21. The transmission rod 22 is fixedly connected to the lifting platform 23.
[0018] Furthermore, guide rails 24 are symmetrically installed on the inner walls of both sides of the frame 1, and multiple slides 231 are symmetrically installed on both sides of the lifting platform 23, with the slides 231 slidably connected to the guide rails 24.
[0019] Specifically, the servo cylinder 21 is activated, and the servo cylinder 21 drives the lifting platform 23 to rise and fall through the transmission rod 22. During the rising and falling of the lifting platform 23, the slide seats 231 on both sides of the lifting platform 23 slide on the guide rail 24 to position and limit the lifting platform 23 and prevent the lifting platform 23 from deviating. The lifting platform 23 drives the fixed seat 32 and the inspection mechanism 4 on the fixed seat 32 to rise and fall, thereby adjusting the height of the inspection mechanism 4.
[0020] Furthermore, the lateral positioning mechanism 3 also includes a first motor 31 installed on the outside of the fixed base 32. The fixed base 32 is provided with a movable groove 33. The slider 34 is slidably connected in the movable groove 33. The output end of the first motor 31 is equipped with a screw 35 extending into the groove. The slider 34 has a through hole with internal threads. The screw 35 is threadedly connected to the through hole on the slider 34.
[0021] Specifically, the first motor 31 is started, which drives the screw 35 to rotate. When the screw rotates, the slider 34, which is threadedly connected to the screw 35, moves laterally in the movable groove 33. The forward and backward movement of the slider 34 can be controlled by controlling the rotation direction of the first motor. The slider 34 drives the frame plate 42 to move laterally, which in turn drives the mounting frame 43 to move laterally, so that the end of the mounting frame 43 moves to the bottom of the camera of the detection equipment.
[0022] It should be noted that the first motor 31, the second motor 44, and the servo cylinder 21 in this device are all controlled by the same programmable controller. Example 2
[0023] Based on the above embodiment one, please refer to the appendix. Figure 4 Appendix Figure 5 Appendix Figure 6 The inspection mechanism 4 also includes a frame plate 42 symmetrically installed on both sides of the mounting frame 43. The frame plate 42 is fixed to the upper end of the slider 34. The two sides of the mounting frame 43 are symmetrically connected to the drive wheel 411 through the shaft hole. The drive belt 41 is movably connected between the drive wheel 411 and cooperates with the drive wheel 411. A second motor 44 for driving the drive wheel 411 to rotate is installed on one side of the drive wheel 411.
[0024] Furthermore, the fixing member 45 includes a movable platform 451 and a placement platform 452. The movable platform 451 is fixed to the outside of the transmission belt 41, and the placement platform 452 is installed on the upper end of the movable platform 451. The top of the placement platform 452 is provided with a disc groove 453 and symmetrically arranged belt grooves 455. A magnetic suction plate 454 is installed at the bottom of the disc groove 453.
[0025] Specifically, when the placement platform 452 is at the bottom, the magnetic plate 454 in the disc groove 453 can hold the dial in place, preventing the watch from falling downwards.
[0026] Furthermore, the bottom of the activity platform 451 is symmetrically equipped with positioning slide plates 456, and the top of the mounting frame 43 is symmetrically provided with through positioning grooves 431. The positioning slide plates 456 and the positioning grooves 431 are slidably connected, and the front and rear sides of the positioning grooves 431 are provided with flared openings 432.
[0027] Specifically, through the above design, the positioning slide plate 456 can limit the movement of the placement platform 452 during its lateral movement, which can prevent the shaking of the placement platform 452 from causing omissions in the recognition and detection of the detection camera, thereby improving the accuracy of the detection.
[0028] In this embodiment, with the help of an external robotic arm or other loading equipment, the watch is placed on the mounting base of the fixing member 45, so that the watch face is fixed in the disc groove 453 and the watch strap is located in the strap groove 455. Then, the second motor 44 is started, which drives the transmission wheel 411 to rotate. The transmission wheel 411 drives the transmission belt 41 to start rotating. The mounting base on the transmission belt 41 and the placed watch move toward the detection camera for detection. After the detection is completed, as the transmission belt 41 rotates, the mounting platform 452 rotates back from the bottom to the starting point. With the help of the external robotic arm or other equipment, the detected watch is removed.
[0029] The working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows: Before the inspection operation, the servo cylinder 21 is started first. The servo cylinder 21 drives the lifting platform 23 to rise and fall through the transmission rod 22. During the lifting process of the lifting platform 23, the slide seats 231 on both sides of the lifting platform 23 slide on the guide rail 24 to position and limit the lifting platform 23 and prevent the lifting platform 23 from deviating. The lifting platform 23 drives the fixed seat 32 and the inspection mechanism 4 on the fixed seat 32 to rise and fall, thereby adjusting the height of the inspection mechanism 4. After the height adjustment is completed, the first motor 31 is started. The first motor 31 drives the screw 35 to rotate. When the screw rotates, the slider 34, which is threadedly connected to the screw 35, moves laterally in the movable groove 33. By controlling the rotation direction of the first motor, the forward and backward movement of the slider 34 can be controlled. The slider 34 drives the frame plate 42 to move laterally, and then drives the mounting frame 43 to move laterally, so that the end of the mounting frame 43 moves to the bottom of the camera of the inspection equipment, completing the positioning adjustment. During the inspection process, in conjunction with an external robotic arm or other loading equipment, the watch is placed on the mounting base of the fixing component 45, so that the watch face is fixed in the disc groove 453 and the watch strap is located in the strap groove 455. Then, the second motor 44 is started, which drives the transmission wheel 411 to rotate. The transmission wheel 411 drives the transmission belt 41 to start rotating. The mounting base on the transmission belt 41 and the placed watch move towards the inspection camera for inspection. After the inspection is completed, as the transmission belt 41 rotates, the mounting platform 452 rotates back from the bottom to the starting point. With the help of the external robotic arm or other equipment, the inspected watch is removed. When the mounting platform 452 is at the bottom, the magnetic plate 454 in the disc groove 453 can hold the watch face to prevent the watch from falling downwards. Multiple mounting bases are provided, and the watches can be continuously sent for inspection as the transmission belt 41 rotates.
