Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of grinding and balancing equipment, specifically a grinding and balancing equipment compatible with multiple material feeding methods. Background Technology

[0002] In existing grinding and tray-mounting equipment, the products are diverse, and the equipment needs to adapt to different material feeding methods and be compatible with different products. At the same time, the accuracy of product placement is also an important issue, and errors need to be minimized as much as possible.

[0003] Existing equipment is often incompatible with multiple material receiving methods, resulting in poor equipment adaptability and low positioning accuracy when placing products, which affects production efficiency and product quality.

[0004] In summary, a grinding and slab device compatible with multiple material feeding methods is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] (a) Technical problems to be solved

[0006] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a grinding and arranging device that is compatible with multiple material feeding methods. It has advantages such as compatibility with multiple material feeding methods and improved product placement accuracy, thus solving the problems of poor adaptability and low product placement accuracy of existing equipment.

[0007] (II) Technical Solution

[0008] The technical solution of this utility model to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is as follows: A grinding and slab-mounting device compatible with multiple material feeding methods, characterized in that it includes:

[0009] The tray feeding assembly and the vibratory feeder feeding assembly are described above. The tray feeding assembly includes a tray stacking area, a feeding and receiving electric cylinder, a material separating cylinder, a conveyor belt, and a stop cylinder. The vibratory feeder feeding assembly includes a feeding bin, a transfer belt, and a vibratory feeder.

[0010] The tray unloading assembly is used to stack and unload finished product trays. Its structural design and control logic are the same as those of the tray feeding assembly. The tray unloading assembly includes a tray stacking area, a feeding and receiving electric cylinder, a material separating cylinder, a conveyor belt, a stop cylinder, a clamping cylinder, and a lifting cylinder. The tray unloading assembly has a clamping cylinder installed on one side of the conveyor belt and a lifting cylinder installed below the conveyor belt.

[0011] The swivel execution component includes a three-axis module and an actuator. The three-axis module includes a linear gantry motor and a linear motor in the XY axis direction, and a servo screw module in the Z axis direction installed below the linear motor, and includes a linear guide rail. The actuator is located on the servo screw module, and the actuator includes at least one hollow rotary nozzle.

[0012] The positioning components include a tray feeding positioning camera, a vibratory feeder feeding positioning camera, a product placement tray positioning camera, and an actuator end-effector secondary positioning camera.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0014] 1) This multi-feeding grinding and stacking equipment has two feeding modes: tray feeding and vibratory feeder feeding. For tray feeding, the trays filled with products are manually placed into the tray stacking area and stacked, supported by the output end of the separating cylinder. Each time a tray needs to be placed, the separating cylinder retracts, and the bottom feeder cylinder pulls the tray down. After one tray has descended, the separating cylinder pushes out again, supporting the other stacked trays above. The lowered tray falls onto the conveyor belt and moves forward until it reaches the stop cylinder, where it stops. The unloading of the stacking tray is similar to the tray feeding structure, both using the separating cylinder and the feeder cylinder for feeding and stacking. However, because the placement of the tray has specific requirements, after the tray is stopped by the stop cylinder and reaches the placement position, it is lifted by the bottom lifting cylinder. The entire tray is held in place by a clamping cylinder. After the actuator completes the tray placement, the clamping cylinder, lifting cylinder, and stop cylinder reset sequentially, releasing the tray with the product. Finally, the product arrives at the tray stacking area with the tray and is neatly stacked by the material separation cylinder and the material feeding and unloading electric cylinder. Then, the product is manually unloaded. The three-axis module drives the hollow rotary suction nozzle at the end of the actuator to start sucking up the material in the tray. After the suction is completed, the stop cylinder releases the tray, and the empty tray continues to move forward to the tray stacking area on the other side. The material feeding and unloading electric cylinder, in conjunction with the material separation cylinder, completes the stacking of the empty tray. Finally, the product is manually unloaded. For vibratory feeder feeding, the disordered material is first poured into the feeding hopper by the operator. Then, the material falls into the vibratory feeder via the transfer belt. The vibratory feeder then sorts the material. After the sorting is completed, the three-axis module drives the hollow rotary suction nozzle at the end of the actuator to start sucking up the material. This method has the advantage of being compatible with two types of material feeding modes.

[0015] 2) This grinding and placement equipment, compatible with multiple material feeding methods, uses a stop cylinder to stop the tray and placement plate during tray loading. The tray loading positioning camera and the product placement plate positioning camera then take pictures and position the tray and placement plate. Subsequently, the three-axis module drives the hollow rotary suction nozzle at the end of the actuator to pick up the material. Before picking up the material, the secondary positioning camera at the end of the actuator positions the product again. Then, the product is picked up, moved above the placement plate, and its placement position is positioned. Finally, the material is placed down. The workflow for picking up material from the vibratory plate is the same as that for tray loading. The three-axis module uses a higher precision linear gantry motor and linear motor in the XY axis direction, and a servo screw module for the Z axis used in vertical working conditions. The servo screw module has good self-locking performance and a large reduction ratio, which can adapt to vertical working conditions while ensuring accuracy, and has the advantage of high product placement accuracy.

[0016] Based on the above technical solution, the present invention can be further improved as follows.

[0017] Furthermore, the output end of the material separating cylinder is provided with a material separating plate.

[0018] The beneficial effect of adopting the above-mentioned further solution is that the output end of the material-separating cylinder can drive the material-separating plate to hold the tray.

[0019] Furthermore, both the linear gantry motor and the linear motor are high-precision linear motors, and the servo screw module includes a screw driven by a servo motor, and the screw module has a self-locking function.

[0020] The beneficial effect of adopting the above-mentioned further solution is that the product needs to move in the XYZ three-axis direction during the tray placement. Therefore, a gantry frame is built by using a three-axis module. Since the product has high requirements for placement accuracy, a higher precision linear gantry motor and linear motor are used for displacement in the XY axis direction. The other end of the X axis is supported by a linear guide rail, while the Z axis used for vertical working conditions uses a servo screw module. The servo screw module has good self-locking performance and a large reduction ratio, which can adapt to vertical working conditions while ensuring accuracy.

[0021] Furthermore, the actuator has four hollow rotary suction nozzles, each with a spring at its end. The hollow rotary suction nozzles and the actuator end secondary positioning camera are mounted together at the end of the servo screw module.

[0022] The beneficial effect of adopting the above-mentioned further solution is that the hollow rotary suction nozzle has a spring at the end, making it flexible. This prevents the hollow rotary suction nozzle from damaging the material or the module when it comes into contact with the material. Considering that the direction of the material sucked by the hollow rotary suction nozzle will be different when the vibratory plate is feeding, the hollow rotary suction nozzle will carry the material and rotate in the air to adjust its direction, so that the material placed each time is in the same direction. The four hollow rotary suction nozzles and the secondary positioning camera at the end of the actuator are all located at the end, which can suck up four materials at a time, improve the efficiency of equipment operation, reduce working time, and maximize benefits.

[0023] Furthermore, the feed belt electric cylinder is a stepper motor driven electric cylinder.

[0024] The advantage of adopting the above-mentioned further solution is that, since only one tray needs to be released at a time when lifting and lowering the tray, there is a precision requirement, so a stepper motor driven electric cylinder is selected. Attached Figure Description

[0034] 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.

[0035] In the embodiments, by Figure 1-8 This invention provides a grinding and tray-mounting device compatible with multiple material feeding methods, comprising:

[0036] Tray feeding assembly 1 and vibratory feeder feeding assembly 2. Tray feeding assembly 1 includes a tray stacking area 101, a feeding and receiving electric cylinder 102, a material separating cylinder 103, a belt 104 and a stop cylinder 105. Vibratory feeder feeding assembly 2 includes a feeding bin 201, a transfer belt 202 and a vibratory feeder 203.

[0037] The tray unloading component 3 is used to stack and unload finished product trays. Its structural design and control logic are the same as those of the tray receiving component 1. The tray unloading component 3 includes a tray stacking area 301, a feeding and receiving electric cylinder 102, a material separating cylinder 103, a belt conveyor 104, a stop cylinder 105, a clamping cylinder 302, and a lifting cylinder 303. The tray unloading component 3 has a clamping cylinder 302 installed on one side of the belt conveyor 104 and a lifting cylinder 303 installed below the belt conveyor 104.

[0038] The swivel execution component 4 includes a three-axis module 401 and an actuator 402. The three-axis module 401 includes a linear gantry motor 401a and a linear motor 401b in the XY axis direction, and a servo screw module 401c in the Z axis direction installed below the linear motor 401b, and includes a linear guide rail 401d. The actuator 402 is located on the servo screw module 401c, and the actuator 402 includes at least one hollow rotary suction nozzle 402a.

[0039] Positioning component 5 includes a tray feeding positioning camera 501, a vibratory feeder feeding positioning camera 502, a product placement tray positioning camera 503, and an actuator end-effector secondary positioning camera 504.

[0040] The output end of the material separating cylinder 103 is equipped with a material separating plate;

[0041] The output end of the material separating cylinder 103 can drive the material separating plate to hold the tray;

[0042] Both the linear gantry motor 401a and the linear motor 401b are high-precision linear motors. The servo screw module 401c includes a screw driven by a servo motor, and the screw module has a self-locking function.

[0043] During the product placement process, the product needs to move in the XYZ axes. Therefore, a gantry frame is constructed using a three-axis module. Since the product requires high placement accuracy, a higher precision linear gantry motor 401a and linear motor 401b are used for displacement in the XY axis. The other end of the X axis is supported by a linear guide rail 401d, while the Z axis used for vertical applications uses a servo screw module 401c. The servo screw module 401c has good self-locking properties and a large reduction ratio, which can adapt to vertical applications while ensuring accuracy.

[0044] The actuator 402 has four hollow rotary suction nozzles 402a, and each hollow rotary suction nozzle 402a has a spring at its end. The hollow rotary suction nozzles 402a and the secondary positioning camera 504 at the end of the actuator are installed together at the end of the servo screw module 401c.

[0045] The hollow rotary suction nozzle 402a has a spring at its end, making it flexible. This prevents the hollow rotary suction nozzle 402a from damaging the material or the module when it comes into contact with the material. Considering that the direction of the material picked up by the hollow rotary suction nozzle 402a will be different when the vibratory plate 203 is feeding, the hollow rotary suction nozzle 402a will carry the material and rotate in the air to adjust its direction, so that the material placed each time is in the same direction. The four hollow rotary suction nozzles 402a and the secondary positioning camera 504 at the end of the actuator are all located at the end, which can pick up four materials at a time, improve the efficiency of equipment operation, reduce working time, and maximize benefits.

[0046] The feed belt take-up and unload electric cylinder 102 is an electric cylinder driven by a stepper motor;

[0047] Since only one tray needs to be released at a time when lifting and lowering it, there is a precision requirement, so a stepper motor driven electric cylinder is selected.

[0048] Working principle:

[0049] Implementation steps for the first innovation point:

[0050] Step 1: The trays filled with products are manually placed into the tray stacking area 101 and stacked. The trays are held in place by the output end of the material separating cylinder 103. Each time a tray needs to be placed, the material separating cylinder 103 retracts, and the bottom material feeding and unloading cylinder 102 pulls the tray down. After one tray has descended, the material separating cylinder 103 pushes out again, pulling the other stacked trays above it. The tray that has been placed down falls onto the conveyor belt 104 and moves forward. It stops when it reaches the stop cylinder 105. The placement tray is fed by the material separating cylinder 103 and the material feeding and unloading cylinder 102. After the placement tray is stopped by the stop cylinder 105 and reaches the placement position, it is lifted by the bottom lifting cylinder 303 and then held in place by the tightening cylinder 302 to fix the entire placement tray.

[0051] Step 2: When the tray is being loaded, the stop cylinder 105 stops the tray and the placement tray. The tray loading positioning camera 501 and the product placement tray positioning camera 503 start taking pictures and positioning the tray and the placement tray. The actuator 402 is driven by the linear gantry motor 401a, linear motor 401b and servo screw module 401c. The hollow rotary suction nozzle 402a at the end of the actuator 402 starts to pick up the material. Before picking up the material, the secondary positioning camera 504 at the end of the actuator positions the product again. Then the product is picked up, moved above the placement tray, and the product placement position is positioned. Finally, the material is put down.

[0052] Step 3: After the suction is completed, the stop cylinder 105 releases the empty tray. The empty tray continues to move forward to the tray stacking area 101 on the other side. The material feeding and receiving electric cylinder 102, together with the material separating cylinder 103, completes the stacking of the empty trays. After the tray is full, the clamping cylinder 302, the lifting cylinder 303, and the stop cylinder 105 are reset in sequence, releasing the tray with the product. Finally, the product arrives at the tray stacking area 301 with the tray and is neatly stacked by the material separating cylinder 103 and the material feeding and receiving electric cylinder 102. Then, it is unloaded manually.

[0053] Implementation steps for the second innovation point:

[0054] Step 1: First, the disordered materials are manually poured into the feeding hopper 201. Then, the materials fall into the vibrating plate 203 via the transfer belt 202, and the vibrating plate 203 sorts the materials.

[0055] Step 2: When the vibratory feeder 203 is feeding materials, the vibratory feeder positioning camera 502 and the product placement plate positioning camera 503 start taking pictures and positioning the vibratory feeder 203 and the placement plate. After the material is sorted, the linear gantry motor 401a, linear motor 401b and servo screw module 401c drive the actuator 402 to move. The hollow rotary suction nozzle 402a at the end of the actuator 402 starts to pick up the material. Before picking up the material, the secondary positioning camera 504 at the end of the actuator positions the product again. Then the product is picked up, moved above the placement plate, and the product placement position is positioned. Finally, the material is put down.

[0056] Step 3: After the suction is completed, the stop cylinder 105 releases the empty tray. The empty tray continues to move forward to the tray stacking area 101 on the other side. The material feeding and receiving electric cylinder 102, together with the material separating cylinder 103, completes the stacking of the empty trays. After the tray is full, the clamping cylinder 302, the lifting cylinder 303, and the stop cylinder 105 are reset in sequence, releasing the tray with the product. Finally, the product arrives at the tray stacking area 301 with the tray and is neatly stacked by the material separating cylinder 103 and the material feeding and receiving electric cylinder 102. Then, it is unloaded manually.
