Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of material transfer mechanisms, and in particular to a material transfer mechanism that integrates loading and unloading. Background Technology

[0002] The integrated loading and unloading transfer mechanism combines loading and unloading functions into one transfer mechanism. The overall structure is compact, reducing the equipment's footprint and facilitating installation and layout.

[0003] A patent with authorization publication number CN217807470U published on the Chinese patent website discloses a spring-loaded loading and unloading device for a material turntable mechanism. The spring-loaded loading and unloading device for the material turntable mechanism includes: a worktable with two sets of parallel material tray loading and unloading mechanisms; two sets of receiving mechanisms are also provided on the worktable, which cooperate with the two sets of material tray loading and unloading mechanisms respectively; wherein, the material tray loading and unloading mechanism consists of a stacked material tray bin and a lifting mechanism, the stacked material tray bin being located at the upper end of the lifting mechanism, and the receiving mechanism extending between the stacked material tray bin and the lifting mechanism; each stacked material tray bin includes two front-and-back working positions, achieving automated loading and unloading of material trays during turntable processing, automatically loading two sets (two types) of material trays and recycling and stacking them after processing, eliminating the need for manual intervention to change material trays during processing, thus achieving a higher degree of automation.

[0004] However, the materials on the upper and lower trays of the material turntable mechanism are in different positions. To pick up materials, the action parameters of the picker must be set multiple times for each pick-up position. The entire process is not only quite time-consuming, but also makes it difficult to improve production efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of this, the present invention provides an integrated material transfer mechanism for loading and unloading, which can not only realize the function of picking up materials at a fixed position, but also replenish the products.

[0006] An integrated loading and unloading material transfer mechanism is provided, with a product picking mechanism located beside it. It includes a parallel conveying mechanism and a stationary conveying mechanism located beside the parallel conveying mechanism. The parallel conveying mechanism includes a shifting shaft, multiple mounting brackets fixedly mounted on the shifting shaft, multiple shifting plates mounted on the mounting brackets, multiple second shifting plates mounted on the mounting brackets, and multiple insertion holes respectively provided on the shifting plates and the second shifting plates. The shifting shaft is driven by a motor to rotate and exchange the positions of the second shifting plates and the shifting plates on the mounting brackets. Multiple mounting rods are evenly arranged on the mounting brackets to be mounted on the second shifting plates and the shifting plates. Multiple fixing rods are provided on the second shifting plates and the shifting plates to hold products on their outer peripheries. The picking mechanism vertically picks up the products from the fixing rods and places them back. The stationary conveying mechanism includes a conveying plate, a slide rail mechanism connecting the conveying plate, and a rotating rod located below the conveying plate. The conveying plate is equipped with a conveying arm, one end of which is fixed to a support plate via a rotating rod. The support plate has multiple insertion posts corresponding to the insertion holes. These insertion posts are used to insert into the insertion holes. A slide rail mechanism is used to adjust the height of the conveying plate to a specific pickup height or the return height of the mounting frame. A driven wheel is fixed below the rotating rod, and a synchronous belt is located on the outer side of the driven wheel. A driving wheel is located on one side of the synchronous belt, and the driving wheel is driven by a drive motor. A second rotating rod is located on the side of the conveying arm opposite the rotating rod, connecting the slider and the conveying arm. A second drive motor is located on the slider. The second drive motor drives the second rotating rod to rotate via the synchronous belt mechanism, and the rotation of the second rotating rod causes the conveying arm to rotate away from or towards the mounting frame.

[0007] Furthermore, the integrated loading and unloading material transfer mechanism also includes a three-dimensional support frame, inside which are the parallel material conveying mechanism and the stationary material conveying mechanism.

[0008] Furthermore, the slide rail mechanism includes a slider, which is driven by a drive rod, which drives the slider to move on the left and right tracks.

[0009] Furthermore, the motor drives the second rotating rod to rotate, and the second rotating rod moves the material conveying arm into the mounting frame, so that the support plate is set corresponding to the shifting plate. The drive rod drives the slider to rise, and the pin on the support plate of the material conveying arm connected to the slider is inserted into the hole on the shifting plate.

[0010] Furthermore, the motor drives the second rotating rod to move the material handling arm to the picking position, and the driving rod drives the slider to adjust the height of the switching plate to a specific height.

[0011] Furthermore, the picking mechanism picks up a product from one of the fixed rods on the shifting plate, and returns the processed product to its original fixed position on the fixed rod. The transmission motor drives the driven wheel through the synchronous belt to rotate the shifting plate, so that the new fixed rod rotates to the fixed position, and then the picking mechanism picks up the product and returns it to its original position.

[0012] Furthermore, when all the products on the transposition plates have been processed and the transposition plates are returned to the mounting frame, the transposition shaft rotates to exchange the positions of the transposition plates and the second transposition plates again, and the processed products on the transposition plates are removed and re-prepared.

[0013] Compared with existing technologies, the integrated loading and unloading material transfer mechanism provided by this utility model sets up a parallel material conveying mechanism and a fixed-position material conveying mechanism to achieve simultaneous material preparation and retrieval processing, and to retrieve materials at a fixed point during retrieval. The parallel material conveying mechanism is equipped with a first and a second shifting plate to achieve simultaneous material preparation and retrieval processing, and the position is exchanged through the shifting shaft to transport the products required for loading and unloading. The products are sleeved on the outer periphery of the fixed rods on the first and second shifting plates to prevent displacement during the transportation process of the first and second shifting plates. When retrieving and returning materials from the shifting plates, the picking mechanism vertically picks up and puts back the products. The fixed-position material conveying mechanism is equipped with a rotating rod, which is driven by a drive motor through the driving wheel to rotate the synchronous belt and the driven wheel, thereby driving the rotating rod to rotate and realizing the fixed-position movement of the fixed column on the first shifting plate, so that the picking mechanism can pick up the products to be processed at a fixed point.

[0027] The specific embodiments of this utility model are described in further detail below. It should be understood that the description of the embodiments of this utility model herein is not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0028] Please see Figures 1 to 12 This is a structural schematic diagram of an integrated loading and unloading material transfer mechanism provided by this utility model. The integrated loading and unloading material transfer mechanism includes a three-dimensional support 1, a parallel material conveying mechanism 2 disposed inside the three-dimensional support 1, and a stationary material conveying mechanism 3 disposed beside the parallel material conveying mechanism 2. It is conceivable that the integrated loading and unloading material transfer mechanism also includes other functional modules, such as a return clamp, which are technologies known to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail here.

[0029] The three-dimensional support 1 is equipped with the parallel material conveying mechanism 2 and the stationary material conveying mechanism 3. A picking mechanism for picking up products 4 is provided next to the integrated loading and unloading material transfer mechanism.

[0030] The parallel material handling mechanism 2 includes a shifting shaft 20 disposed on the three-dimensional support 1, a plurality of mounting brackets 21 fixedly disposed on the shifting shaft 20, a plurality of shifting plates 22 disposed on the mounting brackets 21, a plurality of second shifting plates 23 disposed on the mounting brackets 21, and a plurality of insertion holes 24 respectively disposed on the shifting plates 22 and the second shifting plates 23.

[0031] The transposition shaft 20 and the motor are fixedly mounted on the three-dimensional bracket 1 via a mounting plate. The transposition shaft 20 is driven by the motor to rotate and exchange the positions of the second transposition plate 23 and the transposition plate 22 on the mounting frame 21.

[0032] The mounting frame 21 is composed of two back-to-back C-shapes, and the transposition pivot 20 passes through the middle of the mounting frame 21. The mounting frame 21 is evenly provided with a plurality of mounting rods 210 for mounting the second transposition plate 23 and the transposition plate 22.

[0033] The shifting plate 22 is used to receive and return materials from the picking mechanism, while the second shifting plate 23 is used for manual material preparation during material exchange on the shifting plate 22. The second shifting plate 23 and the shifting plate 22 are provided with multiple fixing rods 220 and 230 on their outer peripheries, allowing the product 4 to be positioned on the second shifting plate 23 and the shifting plate 22. During material retrieval and return from the shifting plate 22, the picking mechanism vertically picks up and returns the product 4. It is conceivable that the shape of the fixing rods 220 is determined according to the shape of the product 4.

[0034] The insertion hole 24 is used to connect the second transposition plate 23, the transposition plate 22 and the conveying plate 30, so that they can move and rotate synchronously.

[0035] The fixed-position material conveying mechanism 3 includes a material conveying plate 30, a slide rail mechanism 31 connected to the material conveying plate 30, and a rotating rod 32 disposed below the material conveying plate 30.

[0036] The conveying plate 30 is provided with a conveying arm 300, and a support plate 301 is fixedly mounted on one end of the conveying arm 300 via a rotating rod 32. The support plate 301 is provided with a plurality of insertion posts 302 corresponding to the insertion holes 24. The insertion posts 302 are used to insert into the insertion holes 24. The conveying plate 30 is used to be movably installed with the second shifting plate 23 or the shifting plate 22 and to move or rotate synchronously.

[0037] The slide rail mechanism 31 is connected to the other end of the conveying arm 300. The slide rail mechanism 31 is provided with a slider 310, which is driven by a drive rod 311. The slide rail mechanism 31 is used to adjust the height of the conveying plate 30 to a specific picking height or the return height of the mounting frame 21.

[0038] A driven wheel 320 is fixedly located below the rotating rod 32. A synchronous belt 321 is located on the outer side of the driven wheel 320, and a driving wheel 322 is located on one side of the synchronous belt 321. The driving wheel 322 is driven by a transmission motor 324. The rotating rod 32 rotates at a fixed position to change the corresponding fixed rod 220 at the pickup point, so that the product 4 picked up at the pickup point is unprocessed material. The rotating rod 32 is driven to rotate by the synchronous belt 321 and the driven wheel 320. The rotating rod 32 drives the support plate 301 to rotate. The support plate 301 drives the shifting plate 22 to rotate through the insert 302, thereby changing the position of the fixed rod 220. The conveying arm 300 has a second rotating rod 323 on the side opposite to the rotating rod 32, connecting the slider 310 and the conveying arm 300. A second drive motor 33 is mounted on the slider 310. The second drive motor 33 drives the second rotating rod 323 to rotate via a synchronous belt mechanism. The rotation of the second rotating rod 323 causes the conveying arm 300 to rotate, moving it away from or towards the mounting frame 21. This is used to move the switching plate 22 from the mounting frame 21 to the pickup position, and to return the switched plate 22, after material replacement, from the pickup position back to the mounting frame 21. The drive rod 311 drives the slider 310 to move on the left and right tracks 325 and 326.

[0039] The operation steps are as follows: 1. Prepare the second switching plate 23. The switching shaft 20 is driven by a motor to rotate the mounting frame 21 to exchange the second switching plate 23 and the switching plate 22. 2. The support plate 301 is movably installed with the switching plate 22. The motor drives the second rotating rod 323 to rotate, and the second rotating rod 323 drives the conveying arm 300 to move into the mounting frame 21. The support plate 301 is set corresponding to the switching plate 22. The driving rod 311 drives the slider 310 to rise, so that the insertion post 302 on the support plate 301 on the conveying arm 300 connected to the slider 310 is inserted into the insertion hole 24 on the switching plate 22, realizing the combination of the support plate 301 and the second switching plate 23. 3. Move the switching plate 22 to the picking position. The second drive motor 33 drives the second rotating rod 323 to move the conveying arm 300 to the picking position. The drive rod 311 drives the slider 310 to adjust the height of the shifting plate 22 to a specific height. 4. The picking mechanism picks up the product 4 on the fixed rod 220 at a fixed point. The picking mechanism picks up one of the products 4 on the fixed rod 220 on the shifting plate 22 and returns the processed product 4 to the original fixed rod 220 at a fixed point. The drive motor 324 drives the driven wheel 320 to rotate the shifting plate 22 through the synchronous belt 321, so that the new fixed rod 220 rotates to the fixed point, and then the picking mechanism picks up the product 4 and returns it to its original position. After all products 4 on the transposition plate 22 have been processed, the transposition plate 22 is reset to the mounting frame 21 using a return fixture. 5. When all products 4 on the transposition plates 22 have been processed and the transposition plates 22 are returned to the mounting frame 21, the transposition shaft 20 rotates to exchange the positions of the transposition plates 22 and the second transposition plate 23 again. The processed products 4 on the transposition plates 22 are removed and re-prepared. 6. Repeat the above steps until all products 4 have been processed.

[0040] Compared with the prior art, the integrated loading and unloading material transfer mechanism provided by this utility model sets up the parallel material conveying mechanism 2 and the stationary material conveying mechanism 3 to realize simultaneous material preparation and material retrieval processing, and to retrieve materials at a fixed point during material retrieval. The parallel material conveying mechanism 2 is equipped with first and second shift plates 22 and 23 to realize simultaneous material preparation and material retrieval processing. The position is exchanged through the shifting shaft 20 to transport the products required for loading and unloading. The products are sleeved on the outer periphery of the fixing rods 220 and 23 on the first and second shift plates 22 and 23 to prevent displacement during the transportation process of the first and second shift plates 22 and 23. When retrieving and returning materials from the shift plates 22, the picking mechanism vertically picks up and puts back the products. The fixed-position material conveying mechanism 3 is equipped with the rotating rod 32. The drive motor 324 drives the synchronous belt 321 and the driven wheel 320 to rotate through the drive wheel 322, thereby driving the rotating rod 32 to rotate. This enables the fixed material column 220 to move in a fixed position on the first shift plate 22, so that the picking mechanism can pick up the product to be processed at a fixed point.

Any modifications, equivalent substitutions or improvements within the spirit of the present utility model are covered within the scope of the claims of the present utility model.
