Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of automatic material handling for nut boxes, and in particular to an automatic material handling and reversing machine for nut boxes. Background Technology

[0002] In the automated production and assembly of small parts such as nuts, it is usually necessary to automatically retrieve products stored in turnover boxes and transfer them to the next process. Current technologies often rely on manual operation or semi-automated equipment for material retrieval, resulting in low efficiency, high labor intensity, and inaccurate positioning. While some automated equipment can perform material retrieval, its structure is often complex and lacks coordination in conveying, positioning, and transferring materials after retrieval, which can easily lead to jamming, positional misalignment, or insufficient equipment stability.

[0003] Furthermore, existing equipment struggles to achieve automatic reversal or bidirectional conveying of turnover boxes during the material handling process. The height adjustment of the material handling platform relies heavily on simple lifting mechanisms, lacking precise guidance and affecting handling accuracy. Simultaneously, the motion control of the material handling components is not flexible enough to adapt to the handling needs of products with different specifications.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for an automatic material handling and reversing machine for nut boxes that has a reasonable structure, a high degree of automation, stable operation, and can efficiently complete the tasks of picking up and transferring materials, in order to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the shortcomings and defects of the existing technology, an automatic material handling and reversing machine for nut bins is provided. In order to achieve stable operation and efficient completion of material handling and transfer tasks, this utility model provides the following technical solution.

[0006] An automatic nut bin unloading and reversing machine includes a support frame, an unloading platform, and an unloading assembly. A first platform and a second platform are arranged parallel to each other on the support frame. A first transmission belt and a second transmission belt are respectively installed on the first platform and the second platform. A plurality of turnover boxes are installed on the first platform. A third transmission belt is installed on the unloading platform. The turnover boxes are transported to the unloading platform via the first and third transmission belts. The unloading assembly is located on the unloading platform and removes the products from the turnover boxes. A cylinder assembly is installed at the lower end of the unloading platform, driving the unloading platform to rise and fall. After unloading, the unloading platform lowers to the same height as the second platform, and the turnover boxes are transported from the unloading platform to the second platform via the third and second transmission belts.

[0007] Compared with the prior art, this utility model realizes the automatic material picking and reversing function of the nut box. Through the coordinated cooperation of the first platform, the second platform and the picking table, the automatic feeding, picking and transportation of the turnover box is realized. The overall structure is compact, the degree of automation is high, and the production efficiency is significantly improved.

[0008] Furthermore, a first switch is provided on one side of the first platform, which drives the first transmission belt to move; a second switch is provided on one side of the second platform, which drives the second transmission belt to move, and the first transmission belt and the second transmission belt move in opposite directions; a forward limit switch and a reverse limit switch are provided on the material handling platform, the forward limit switch drives the third transmission belt to move in the same direction as the first transmission belt; the reverse limit switch drives the third transmission belt to move in the same direction as the second transmission belt.

[0009] Through the above improvements, by setting the first switch, the second switch, and the forward and reverse travel switches, the movement direction of each transmission belt is precisely controlled, ensuring the correct positioning and smooth transfer of the turnover box on the material handling platform, avoiding confusion or jamming during the conveying process, and improving the reliability and operational accuracy of the equipment.

[0010] Furthermore, a fastening assembly is provided on the material handling platform. The fastening assembly includes a push cylinder on one side and a limiting block on the other side. A push rod is fixedly provided at the piston rod end of the push cylinder.

[0011] Through the above improvements, a fastening assembly combining a push cylinder and a limit block is adopted to effectively clamp the turnover box, prevent it from shifting during the material handling process, ensure the accuracy of the material handling position, and improve operational stability.

[0012] Furthermore, the cylinder assembly includes a support platform and a cylinder body. The cylinder body is installed inside the support platform. The end of the piston rod of the cylinder body abuts against the lower end of the material handling platform and is fixed by bolts. The piston rod retracts, causing the material handling platform to descend.

[0013] Through the above improvements, the cylinder assembly structure is simple and reliable. The lifting and lowering of the material handling platform is achieved through the extension and retraction of the piston rod. The operation response is fast, the maintenance is convenient, and it is suitable for working conditions with frequent lifting and lowering.

[0014] Furthermore, guide posts are provided around the support platform, and insertion holes are provided on the support platform. The guide posts are slidably disposed in the insertion holes. The lower end of the guide post disposed on the same side is disposed inside the support platform, and a connecting plate is fixedly connected to the lower end. The upper end of the guide post is fixedly disposed on the lower end surface of the material handling platform.

[0015] Through the above improvements, by setting guide columns on the support platform and cooperating with the insertion holes, the verticality and stability of the material handling platform during the lifting process are ensured, preventing shaking or deviation, and further improving the material handling accuracy and equipment service life.

[0016] Furthermore, the material handling assembly includes an electrical control box, a longitudinal guide block, a transverse guide block, and a material handling block. The electrical control box is mounted on the support platform and drives the longitudinal and transverse guide blocks to move. A first guide rail is provided on the longitudinal guide block. A first slider is provided on the side of the material handling block near the transverse guide block. The first slider is slidably connected to the first guide rail on the transverse guide block. A second guide rail is provided on the longitudinal guide block. A connecting block extends from the lower end of the transverse guide block toward the longitudinal guide block. A second slider is provided at the lower end of the connecting block. A second guide rail is provided at the upper end of the longitudinal guide block. The second slider is slidably connected to the second guide rail.

[0017] Through the above improvements, the material handling component is driven by the electrical control box to move the longitudinal and transverse guide blocks, and in conjunction with the guide rail and slider structure, it can achieve precise movement of the material handling block in two-dimensional space, adapt to different material handling position requirements, and improve the flexibility and material handling accuracy of the equipment.

[0018] Furthermore, the material taking block includes a fixed part and a sliding part. A fourth slide rail is provided on the end of the fixed part away from the transverse guide block. The corresponding sliding part is slidably connected to the fourth slide rail, and a clamping member is provided at the lower end of the sliding part. The clamping member clamps the product in the turnover box.

[0019] Through the above improvements, the fixed part and the sliding part of the picking block are connected by the fourth slide rail, and the clamping part can be flexibly adjusted to accurately clamp the products in the turnover box, enhance the adaptability of the equipment to products of different specifications, and improve the success rate of picking.

[0020] Furthermore, the lower end of the support frame and the support platform is provided with foot cups.

[0021] Through the above improvements, the foot cup structure at the lower end of the support frame and support platform provides stable support, facilitates equipment leveling and vibration reduction, and ensures overall stability during operation. Attached Figure Description
