Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of license plate production technology, specifically to an intelligent feeding and storage mechanism for multiple types of license plates. Background Technology

[0002] In the unmanned license plate pressing process, the traditional method of feeding semi-finished products has become a key bottleneck restricting production efficiency. The existing process relies on manual operation, with various types of semi-finished license plates being stacked haphazardly around the press. Workers then manually retrieve these products during pressing, which not only occupies a large amount of production space but also poses risks of material mixing and scratches on metal surfaces.

[0003] Manual material handling is inefficient and cannot keep up with the high-speed operation of the press. It lacks a real-time material monitoring mechanism and often causes production interruptions due to untimely material replenishment. At the same time, the mixed storage of different types of license plates is chaotic and cannot meet the needs of flexible production for classified storage. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides an intelligent feeding and storage mechanism for multiple types of license plates, which can realize the classified storage, automatic feeding, and real-time material monitoring of multiple types of license plates.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a multi-type license plate intelligent feeding and storage mechanism, including a storage cabinet, wherein multiple storage areas are provided inside the storage cabinet, each storage area is individually hinged with a cabinet door, a drive mechanism is installed inside the storage cabinet, a gripping device is installed on the drive mechanism, a conveying mechanism is installed on one side of the storage cabinet, a weighing platform is installed at the bottom of each storage area, a license plate storage plate is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the weighing platform, a rubber pad is fixedly connected to the surface of the license plate storage plate, and an alarm matching the weighing platform is installed above each cabinet door.

[0006] Furthermore, the drive mechanism includes a top truss guide rail fixedly connected to the upper end of the storage cabinet, a slide block one slidably connected to the top truss guide rail, a middle truss guide rail mounted on the slide block one, a slide block two slidably connected to the middle truss guide rail, a bottom truss guide rail fixedly connected to the slide block two, a slide block three slidably connected to the bottom truss guide rail, and a gripping device mounted on the slide block three.

[0007] Furthermore, the bottom truss guide rail and the top truss guide rail are both perpendicular to each other and the middle truss guide rail is parallel to each other. The conveying mechanism is located below the top truss guide rail and to the left of the middle truss guide rail.

[0008] Furthermore, the conveying mechanism includes a bracket fixedly connected to the storage cabinet, a driver fixedly connected to the bracket, a rotating shaft fixedly connected to the output end of the driver, and several conveying rollers rotatably connected to the bracket. The first conveying roller is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft, and adjacent conveying rollers are connected to a synchronous belt via a synchronous pulley.

[0009] Furthermore, the driver is a reversible motor.

[0010] Furthermore, the bracket has several grooves, and several positioning turntables are rotatably connected to the grooves.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: This intelligent loading and storage mechanism for multi-type license plates achieves classified storage of different types of license plates by setting up multiple independent storage areas. With the help of a two-dimensional drive mechanism (top, middle and bottom truss guide rail combination) and a gripping device, it can accurately complete the automatic gripping and transfer of semi-finished products in each area, greatly improving loading efficiency. The bottom weighing platform and cabinet door alarm are linked to monitor the material balance in real time and trigger audible and visual alarms to ensure timely replenishment.

[0014] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0015] Please see Figures 1 to 4A multi-type license plate intelligent feeding and storage mechanism includes a storage cabinet 1, which has multiple storage areas 2. Each storage area 2 is individually hinged with a cabinet door 3. A drive mechanism is installed inside the storage cabinet 1, and a gripping device 4 is installed on the drive mechanism. A conveying mechanism is installed on one side of the storage cabinet 1. A weighing platform 5 is installed at the bottom of each storage area 2. A license plate storage plate is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the weighing platform 5. A rubber pad is fixedly connected to the surface of the license plate storage plate. An alarm 6 matching the weighing platform 5 is installed above each cabinet door 3.

[0016] The multi-type license plate intelligent feeding and storage mechanism of this utility model is constructed of welded steel structure. Internally, it is divided into multiple independent storage areas 2 (the number can be customized according to the license plate type requirements, such as 4-8). Each storage area 2 corresponds to a type of semi-finished license plate. The hinged cabinet door 3 at the front of each storage area 2 is made of transparent acrylic material, facilitating observation of the remaining material level. It is equipped with an electromagnetic lock and is manually opened by the worker only when replenishing materials. The worker can open the cabinet door 3 of the corresponding semi-finished product and stack the license plate semi-finished products in the corresponding rack. A weighing platform 5 is installed at the bottom of each storage area 2, and a license plate storage plate (made of aluminum alloy with a 1mm thick rubber pad on the surface) is bolted to the upper surface of the weighing platform 5. Rubber pads effectively prevent slippage when semi-finished products are stacked and avoid scratches on metal surfaces. When it is necessary to remove the semi-finished product tags, the position of the gripping device 4 can be adjusted through the drive mechanism. The gripping device 4 grabs the semi-finished product tags, and the drive mechanism is then adjusted so that the gripping device 4 is positioned above the conveying mechanism, thus placing the semi-finished product tags on the conveying mechanism. The semi-finished product tags reach the designated position and wait for the press loading and unloading robot to pick them up, completing the press semi-finished product loading process. The weighing platform 5 uses a high-precision pressure sensor to monitor the total weight of the semi-finished products in the corresponding storage area 2 in real time and transmits the data to the control system. Alarms 6 are installed above each cabinet door 3 and use an audible and visual alarm module (red LED light + buzzer). When the weighing platform 5 detects that the weight is lower than the preset threshold (corresponding to the weight of the remaining 10 semi-finished products), the control system triggers the alarm 6 to prompt workers to replenish materials in time.

[0017] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the driving mechanism includes a top truss guide rail 7 fixedly connected to the upper end of the storage cabinet 1, a slide block 1 slidably connected to the top truss guide rail 7, a middle truss guide rail 8 installed on the slide block 1, a slide block 2 slidably connected to the middle truss guide rail 8, a bottom truss guide rail 9 fixedly connected to the slide block 2, a slide block 3 slidably connected to the bottom truss guide rail 9, and a gripping device 4 installed on the slide block 3.

[0018] Specifically, the drive mechanism is used to move the gripping device 4 in a two-dimensional space to accurately grip the semi-finished products in each storage area 2. Specifically, the top truss guide rail 7 is bolted to the upper column of the storage cabinet 1 and is arranged horizontally. Slide 1 (driven by a built-in servo motor) slides along the guide rail, enabling horizontal movement of the middle truss guide rail 8 and the gripping device 4. The middle truss guide rail 8 is mounted on slide 1 and is arranged vertically. Slide 2 (driven by a built-in servo motor) slides along the guide rail, enabling vertical movement of the bottom truss guide rail 9 and the gripping device 4. The bottom truss guide rail 9 is fixed to slide 2 and is arranged horizontally. Slide 3 (driven by a built-in servo motor) slides along the guide rail, moving the gripping device 4 along with the license plate it adsorbs to the top of the conveying mechanism. The gripping device 4 is mounted at the bottom of slide 3 and uses a vacuum suction cup assembly (equipped with a negative pressure sensor to ensure gripping stability). The number of suction cups can be changed according to the size of the semi-finished product. By combining the top, middle and bottom truss guide rails, the gripping device 4 can achieve horizontal and vertical planar movement with a positioning accuracy of ±0.5mm to meet the gripping requirements of storage areas 2 at different heights.

[0019] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the bottom truss guide rail 9 and the top truss guide rail 7 are both perpendicular to each other and the middle truss guide rail 8. The bottom truss guide rail 9 and the top truss guide rail 7 are parallel to each other. The conveying mechanism is located below the top truss guide rail 7 and to the left of the middle truss guide rail 8.

[0020] Specifically, this involves precisely adjusting the movement of the gripping device 4 in a vertical plane via a drive.

[0021] like Figure 4 As shown, the conveying mechanism includes a bracket 10 fixedly connected to the storage cabinet 1, a driver 11 fixedly connected to the bracket 10, a rotating shaft fixedly connected to the output end of the driver 11, and several conveying rollers 12 rotatably connected to the bracket 10. The first conveying roller 12 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft, and two adjacent conveying rollers 12 are connected to a synchronous belt 14 through a synchronous pulley 13.

[0022] Specifically, the conveyor roller 12 is mounted on the bracket 10 via a bearing seat. The adjacent conveyor rollers 12 are driven by the synchronous pulley 13 and the synchronous belt 14. The driver 11 drives the first conveyor roller 12 to rotate, thereby driving all the conveyor rollers 12 to rotate, so as to send out the semi-finished license plate.

[0023] like Figure 4 As shown, the driver 11 is a forward and reverse rotating motor.

[0024] Specifically, after the license plate is no longer needed, the delivered license plate can be sent back to the storage cabinet 1.

[0025] like Figure 4 As shown, the bracket 10 has several grooves 15, and several positioning turntables 16 are rotatably connected to the grooves 15.

[0026] Specifically, the cooperation of multiple turntables 16 is used to center and guide the semi-finished product to ensure that it reaches the designated position.

[0027] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
