Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vacuum material suction equipment technology, specifically a vacuum material suction module with a vacuum on / off control structure. Background Technology
[0002] In the field of automated production, vacuum material handling modules are widely used in material gripping and transfer scenarios, especially multi-station rotary modules which are frequently used due to their high operating efficiency. In existing multi-station vacuum material handling modules, the vacuum on / off control of each station mostly relies on electronic pneumatic circuit systems, which require the configuration of solenoid valve groups, pneumatic circuit controllers, and a large number of precision air pipe connectors, resulting in a complex overall structure and cumbersome assembly.
[0003] These solutions not only increase manufacturing costs due to electronic components and precision pneumatic circuit parts, but also present challenges in maintenance. Electronic components are prone to response delays or malfunctions, affecting the accuracy of material suction and discharge, while pneumatic circuit connections are susceptible to vacuum leaks due to sealing issues, reducing operational stability. Furthermore, when the on / off requirements of different workstations change, the entire pneumatic circuit control system needs to be modified, resulting in poor versatility and difficulty in flexibly adapting to diverse production scenarios. Utility Model Content
[0004] In order to overcome the shortcomings of existing technical solutions, this utility model provides a vacuum suction module with a vacuum on / off control structure, which can effectively solve the problems mentioned in the background technology.
[0005] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is:

The vacuum conversion fixing layer is provided with a vacuum channel for conveying vacuum. The vacuum on / off control board is connected to the vacuum conversion fixing layer and is provided with an on / off slot for controlling the on / off of vacuum. The vacuum channel corresponds to the vacuum interface on the vacuum on / off control board.
[0007] Multiple vacuum rotary stations are distributed circumferentially on the outside of the vacuum on / off control plate and cooperate with the vacuum on / off control plate to realize the vacuum on / off of each vacuum rotary station through the on / off slot.
[0008] As a further description of the above technical solution, the vacuum conversion rotating layer and the vacuum conversion fixed layer are attached to each other in an upper and lower plane, and the vacuum conversion rotating layer can rotate relative to the vacuum conversion fixed layer around its central axis. The upper and lower air inlets of the vacuum conversion rotating layer and the vacuum conversion fixed layer are aligned one by one.
[0009] As a further description of the above technical solution, the number of vacuum rotary stations is eight, which are evenly distributed radially around the outer periphery of the vacuum on / off control plate.
[0010] As a further description of the above technical solution, the vacuum conversion fixing layer has a ring structure, and the vacuum on / off control plate is disposed on the inner side of the vacuum conversion fixing layer and is coaxially arranged with the vacuum conversion fixing layer.
[0011] As a further description of the above technical solution, the vacuum on / off control board is disposed between the vacuum conversion fixed layer and the vacuum conversion rotating layer, and the vacuum on / off control board and the vacuum conversion fixed layer are detachably connected.
[0012] As a further description of the above technical solution, the vacuum rotary station is provided with a vacuum adsorption structure for material suction.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0015] The vacuum suction module with a vacuum on / off control structure of this utility model has at least one of the following beneficial effects during use:
[0016] Vacuum is delivered to the vacuum switch plate via a vacuum conversion fixing layer, and the vacuum on / off control plate controls the vacuum switching at the rotary vacuum station. Through the mechanical structure design of the switch plate, no additional air valves or electronic control systems are needed; the vacuum on / off switching of each station is automatically completed as the station rotates. This achieves direct airflow on / off at designated stations, mechanically solving different usage scenarios at each station, eliminating the need for complex pneumatic control systems, and significantly reducing costs.
[0017] The vacuum conversion rotating layer and fixed layer are fitted together vertically with aligned air inlets, reducing vacuum leakage, ensuring stable mechanical control response, avoiding electronic system delays or malfunctions, and improving material suction and discharge accuracy. The vacuum on / off control board is detachable and replaceable to adapt to different workstation on / off requirements without overall modification, offering high versatility. Multiple workstations are circumferentially distributed and rotate in coordination, achieving synchronous switching and independent control, significantly improving operational efficiency and making it suitable for high-speed automated production lines.

[0023] 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.
[0024] like Figure 1-3 As shown, this utility model provides a vacuum suction module with a vacuum on / off control structure, including a vacuum conversion fixing layer 2, a vacuum conversion rotating layer, a vacuum on / off control board 3, and multiple vacuum rotating stations 1. The vacuum conversion fixing layer 2 is provided with a vacuum channel for conveying vacuum. The vacuum on / off control board 3 is connected to the vacuum conversion fixing layer 2. The vacuum on / off control board 3 is provided with an on / off groove 4 for controlling the on / off of vacuum. The vacuum channel corresponds to the vacuum interface on the vacuum on / off control board 3.
[0025] In this embodiment, the vacuum provided by the vacuum source is transmitted through the vacuum channel of the vacuum conversion and fixing layer 2. The vacuum conversion and fixing layer 2 serves as a fixed carrier for vacuum transmission, and its vacuum channel precisely corresponds to the vacuum interface on the vacuum on / off control board 3, ensuring that the vacuum can be stably transmitted to the vacuum on / off control board 3.
[0026] Multiple vacuum rotary stations 1 are distributed circumferentially on the outside of the vacuum on / off control plate 3 and cooperate with the vacuum on / off control plate 3 to realize the vacuum on / off of each vacuum rotary station 1 through the on / off slot 4.
[0027] The vacuum on / off control board 3 is located between the vacuum conversion fixed layer 2 and the vacuum conversion rotating layer, and it is provided with an arc-shaped on / off groove 4 adapted to the working requirements of the vacuum rotating station 1. The position, shape and number of the on / off groove 4 are designed in advance according to the working scenario of each vacuum rotating station 1 (for example, when a station needs to suck up material, it corresponds to the conducting section of the on / off groove 4, and when a station needs to discharge material, it corresponds to the disconnecting section of the on / off groove 4).
[0028] When the vacuum rotary station 1 rotates with the vacuum conversion rotary layer, the relative position of the station and the vacuum on / off control plate 3 changes: if the station rotates to the conducting area of the on / off groove 4 (i.e., the station's air path is connected to the on / off groove 4), the vacuum is transmitted through the on / off groove 4 and the air path of the vacuum conversion rotary layer to the vacuum adsorption structure 5 of the station, realizing the material suction action. If the station rotates to the disconnected area of the on / off groove 4 (i.e., the station's air path is not connected to the on / off groove 4), the vacuum transmission is blocked, and the vacuum adsorption structure 5 of the station releases the material, realizing the material discharge action.
[0029] In this embodiment, the vacuum is delivered to the vacuum switch plate via the vacuum conversion fixing layer 2. The vacuum on / off is achieved by the on / off slot 4 on the vacuum on / off control plate 3. Through the mechanical structure design of the on / off slot 4, the vacuum on / off switching of each station can be automatically completed as the station rotates without the need for additional air valves or electronic control systems. This achieves direct air on / off at designated stations, mechanically solving the different usage scenarios of each station, eliminating the need for a complex air circuit control system, and significantly reducing costs.
[0030] Furthermore, the vacuum conversion rotating layer and the vacuum conversion fixed layer 2 are arranged in an upper and lower plane fit together, and the vacuum conversion rotating layer can rotate relative to the vacuum conversion fixed layer 2 around its central axis. The upper and lower air inlets of the vacuum conversion rotating layer and the vacuum conversion fixed layer 2 are aligned one by one.
[0031] The vacuum conversion rotating layer and the vacuum conversion fixed layer 2 are fitted together on the upper and lower planes, and their upper and lower air inlets are aligned to ensure that the vacuum does not leak during relative rotation. The vacuum conversion rotating layer can rotate around its central axis, and its rotation drives multiple vacuum rotating stations 1 distributed circumferentially on the outside of the vacuum on / off control plate 3 to rotate synchronously (such as 8 stations evenly distributed radially), realizing the switching of stations.
[0032] By mechanically cooperating with the arc-shaped on / off groove 4 on the vacuum on / off control board 3 and the vacuum rotary station 1, the vacuum on / off control of each station is realized in a purely mechanical way. This eliminates the need for complex components such as solenoid valve groups, air pipe joints, and air circuit controllers used to control vacuum on / off in traditional solutions, greatly simplifying the overall structure of the module.
[0033] Furthermore, the number of vacuum rotary stations 1 is eight, which are evenly distributed radially around the outer periphery of the vacuum on / off control plate 3.
[0034] Compared to solutions that rely on electronic pneumatic circuit control, this module achieves its core functions through a mechanical structure (on / off slot 4, rotary fit), reducing the use of high-cost electronic components and precision pneumatic circuit parts, thus lowering manufacturing costs. At the same time, the mechanical structure is more reliable, and the subsequent maintenance costs (such as component replacement and troubleshooting) are also significantly reduced.
[0035] Furthermore, the vacuum conversion fixing layer 2 has a ring structure, and the vacuum on / off control plate 3 is disposed inside the vacuum conversion fixing layer 2 and is coaxially arranged with the vacuum conversion fixing layer 2.
[0036] Furthermore, the vacuum on / off control board 3 is located between the vacuum conversion fixed layer 2 and the vacuum conversion rotating layer, and the vacuum on / off control board 3 and the vacuum conversion fixed layer 2 are detachably connected.
[0037] The vacuum on / off control board 3 and the vacuum conversion fixing layer 2 are detachably connected. When the on / off requirements of each vacuum rotary station 1 change under different working conditions, only the vacuum on / off control board 3 with the corresponding on / off slot 4 needs to be replaced to adapt to the new scenario. There is no need to modify the overall structure of the module, which improves the versatility and scenario adaptability of the module.
[0038] Furthermore, the vacuum rotary station 1 is equipped with a vacuum adsorption structure 5 for material suction.
[0039] The vacuum conversion rotating layer and the vacuum conversion fixed layer 2 adopt an upper and lower plane fitting design, and the air ports are aligned one by one to ensure the airtightness of vacuum transmission during relative rotation and reduce vacuum leakage. At the same time, the mechanical structure has a stable on / off control response, avoiding delays or malfunctions that may occur in the electronic control system, and improving the accuracy of material suction and discharge.
[0040] Furthermore, the on / off groove 4 is an arc-shaped groove, and the shape and number of the on / off groove 4 are adapted to the working requirements of the vacuum rotary station 1, so as to enable the vacuum on / off of the designated vacuum rotary station 1.
[0041] Multiple vacuum rotary stations 1 (e.g., 8) are evenly distributed circumferentially. With the continuous rotation of the vacuum conversion rotary layer, synchronous switching and independent on / off control of multiple stations can be achieved, which greatly improves the efficiency of material suction, transfer and discharge. It is suitable for high-speed automated production line scenarios.
[0042] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
