[0016] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. Example 1
[0017] Reference Figure 1 As shown, a spindle transfer fixture includes a movable chassis 1, on which a bracket is fixed. The bracket includes two horizontal columns 2 arranged side by side and four vertical crossbars 3 fixed between the two columns 2. Each crossbar 3 is fixed with multiple support members for supporting spindles 16. The support members correspond one-to-one with the mounting shafts on the spindle 16 frame and are composed of two horizontal longitudinal rods 4 arranged side by side. The longitudinal rods 4 are inclined downwards and to the rear.
[0018] Four horizontal safety bars 5, corresponding one-to-one with the crossbars 3, are vertically slidably installed on the bracket. The safety bars 5 are located on the lower side of the support, and their tops are provided with multiple stops 6, corresponding one-to-one with the support. The stops 6 are located between the two longitudinal bars 4. The bracket is also provided with an unlocking component for driving the four safety bars 5 to move synchronously.
[0019] More specifically, each of the two pillars 2 is fixed with a handle 15.
[0020] In use, move this fixture to the side of the destacking robot and use the unlocking component to move the four safety levers 5 upwards to the locked position. After the robot destackings, place the spindles 16 one by one onto the support of the fixture, so that the stop block 6 is located between the two side plates of the spindle 16, preventing the spindle 16 from slipping off the fixture. Then, two operators each pull a handle 15 to move the fixture to the front of the spindle 16 frame, so that the spindle 16 corresponds to the mounting shaft on the spindle 16 frame. Subsequently, use the unlocking component to move the four safety levers 5 downwards to the unlocked position, at which point the stop block 6 disengages from between the two side plates of the spindle 16. Finally, push the spindle 16 backwards along the longitudinal rod 4 to load the spindle 16 onto the spindle 16 frame. Example 2
[0021] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, this embodiment designs the structure of the safety stop bar 5 and the unlocking component based on Embodiment 1, specifically as follows: Reference Figure 1-2 As shown, both ends of the safety stop bar 5 are fixed with vertical bars 7, and the vertical bars 7 on both sides are symmetrically arranged. The vertical bars 7 are provided with a first vertical groove 701, and the lower end of the vertical bar 7 is provided with a first pressing slope 702 that cooperates with the unlocking component. The column 2 is provided with four first fixing pins 8 that are slidably connected to the first groove 701.
[0022] There are two sets of unlocking components, which are installed on the two pillars 2 respectively and are set symmetrically on the left and right.
[0023] The unlocking assembly includes a vertical unlocking rod 9 and a limiting mechanism. The unlocking rod 9 is horizontally slidably mounted on the column 2 and is connected to the column 2 by two tension springs 10. The inner side of the unlocking rod 9 is provided with four horizontal push rods 11 that correspond one-to-one with the vertical rod 7. The inner end of the push rod 11 is provided with a second pressing slope 1101 that cooperates with the first pressing slope 702. When the unlocking rod 9 moves toward the safety stop 5, the safety stop 5 will move upward under the cooperation of the second pressing slope 1101 and the first pressing slope 702.
[0024] More specifically, the unlocking rod 9 has a vertical groove 902 and two horizontal second sliding grooves 901, and the column 2 has two second fixing pins 12 that are slidably connected to the second sliding grooves 901.
[0025] In use, two operators each operate one set of unlocking components: the unlocking rod 9 is pulled outward through the vertical slot 902 and fixed by the limiting mechanism, at which point all four safety stops 5 are in the unlocked position. When the limiting mechanism is released from fixing the unlocking rod 9, the unlocking rod 9 moves towards the safety stops 5 under the action of the tension spring 10, causing the safety stops 5 to move upward to the locked position. Example 3
[0026] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, this embodiment designs the structure of the limiting mechanism based on Embodiment 2, specifically as follows: Reference Figure 3 As shown, the limiting mechanism includes a pin 13 and a fixing sleeve 14. The fixing sleeve 14 is longitudinally fixed to the outer side of the column 2. The pin 13 is slidably inserted into the fixing sleeve 14. When the pin 13 is inserted between the column 2 and the unlocking rod 9, the safety stop 5 is in the unlocked position. When the pin 13 is disengaged from the unlocking rod 9, the unlocking rod 9 moves towards the safety stop 5, causing the safety stop 5 to move upward to the locked position.
[0027] In use, the unlocking lever 9 is pulled outward through the vertical slot 902, and then the pin 13 is pushed forward to insert it between the column 2 and the unlocking lever 9, thereby fixing the position of the unlocking lever 9; when it is necessary to move the safety stop 5 to the locked position, simply pull the pin 13 backward to disengage it from the unlocking lever 9.
[0028] In summary, this device has a simple structure and is easy to operate. When used in conjunction with a destacking robot, it can quickly transport and load the wire spindle 16 onto the spindle 16 rack. The device can simultaneously move multiple safety stops 5 to the locking position through the unlocking component, so that the stop block 6 is located between the two side baffles of the spindle 16, and the stop block 6 prevents the spindle 16 from slipping off the tooling.
[0029] This utility model is not limited to the above-described embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of this utility model, and the changed content still falls within the protection scope of this utility model.
