Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of feeding structure technology, and in particular to a feeding structure for ceramic product processing equipment. Background Technology

[0002] A flange is a mechanical fastener used for pipe connections. Its main function is to connect pipes and equipment, forming a unified whole to facilitate the transport and handling of media. According to material, flanges can be classified into various types, including metal flanges, plastic flanges, and ceramic flanges. The processing of ceramic flanges requires the use of robotic arms and pneumatic suction cups for feeding, primarily to transport the ceramic substrate to the processing equipment.

[0003] In the process of drilling ceramic flanges, a feeding structure is usually used to send the workpiece to the processing position. Among them, robotic arms and pneumatic suction cups are common feeding methods. However, when feeding annular ceramic substrates of different sizes, it is difficult to flexibly adjust the position of the pneumatic suction cup according to the size of the annular ceramic substrate, which can easily reduce the flexibility of the structure. Therefore, a feeding structure for ceramic product processing equipment is needed. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a feeding structure for ceramic product processing equipment.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A feeding structure for ceramic product processing equipment includes a base, a robotic arm mounted on the top of the base, and a suction mechanism provided at the output end of the robotic arm. The suction mechanism includes a support frame, which is fixedly connected to the bottom of the output end of the robotic arm. A mounting ring is fixedly connected to the bottom of the support frame. Multiple slots are opened through the outer side of the mounting ring. A sliding plate is slidably connected in the slot. A connecting plate is fixedly connected to one side of the sliding plate. A through slot is opened through the top of the connecting plate. A pneumatic suction cup is fixedly connected in the through slot.

[0006] By adopting the above technical solution and setting up a suction mechanism, when workers are drilling holes in the annular ceramic substrate, they can flexibly adjust the position of the pneumatic suction cup according to the size of the annular ceramic substrate. This makes it easier for workers to feed annular ceramic substrates of different sizes, thereby improving the flexibility of the structure during use.

[0007] Preferably, a mounting ring is fixedly sleeved on the outer side of the slide plate, the mounting ring is located inside the mounting ring, and the dimensions of the mounting ring and the connecting plate are both larger than the dimensions of the inner side of the slot.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution and setting the mounting ring and connecting plate, the slide can move within the slot and prevent the slide from falling out of the slot.

[0009] Preferably, a limiting plate is fixedly connected to the other side of the slide plate, and a threaded hole is opened through the top of the support frame. A threaded rod is threadedly connected inside the threaded hole, and a connecting block for cooperating with the limiting plate is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the threaded rod.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, when the operator turns the threaded rod, it can drive the connecting block to move downward. When the connecting block moves downward, it can push multiple limit plates to move in a direction away from each other, thereby improving the operator's operating efficiency.

[0011] Preferably, the connecting block is in the shape of a frustum, wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, and the limiting plate is adapted to the connecting block.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, since the connecting block is a frustum shape that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, when the connecting block moves downward, multiple limiting plates can move towards the direction of the mounting ring, thereby driving the sliding plate and the connecting plate to move. The movement of the connecting plate can drive the pneumatic suction cup to move, so that when the connecting block moves downward, the pneumatic suction cup can move away from the outer wall of the mounting ring.

[0013] Preferably, a spring is fixedly connected to one side of the mounting ring, one end of the spring is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the mounting ring, and the spring is sleeved on the outside of the slide plate.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution and setting a spring, when the mounting ring moves towards the inner wall of the mounting ring, the mounting ring will compress the spring, thereby increasing the resistance between the mounting ring and the sliding plate. Thus, when the operator does not turn the threaded rod to move the connecting block, it can effectively prevent the sliding plate, connecting plate and pneumatic suction cup from moving randomly.

[0015] Preferably, a knob is fixedly connected to the top of the threaded rod, and the outer side of the knob is provided with anti-slip texture.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution and by setting the anti-slip texture, the friction between the knob and the worker's hand can be increased when the worker turns the knob, thereby preventing the worker's hand from slipping when turning the knob.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: 1. By setting up a suction mechanism, when workers are drilling holes in the annular ceramic substrate, they can flexibly adjust the position of the pneumatic suction cup according to the size of the annular ceramic substrate. This makes it easier for workers to feed annular ceramic substrates of different sizes, thereby improving the flexibility of the structure during use.

[0018] 2. By setting up a threaded rod and a connecting block, when the operator turns the threaded rod, it can drive the connecting block to move downward. When the connecting block moves downward, it can push multiple limit plates to move in a direction away from each other, thereby improving the operator's operating efficiency.

[0021] 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.

[0022] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 A feeding structure for ceramic product processing equipment includes a base 1, a robotic arm 2 mounted on the top of the base 1, the robotic arm 2 being existing technology and not described in detail here, and a suction mechanism 3 provided at the output end of the robotic arm 2; The suction mechanism 3 includes a support frame 31, which is fixedly connected to the bottom of the output end of the robotic arm 2. A mounting ring 32 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the support frame 31. Multiple slots are opened through the outer side of the mounting ring 32. A sliding plate 33 is slidably connected in the slots. A connecting plate 34 is fixedly connected to one side of the sliding plate 33. A through slot is opened through the top of the connecting plate 34. A pneumatic suction cup 35 is fixedly connected in the through slot. This allows the operator to easily adjust the position of the pneumatic suction cup 35 according to the size of the annular ceramic substrate when drilling holes in the ceramic flange, thus facilitating the suction and feeding of annular ceramic substrates of different sizes.

[0023] Furthermore, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 It can be seen that the outer side of the slide plate 33 is fixedly fitted with an installation ring 39, which is located inside the installation ring 32. The dimensions of the installation ring 39 and the connecting plate 34 are both larger than the dimensions of the inner side of the slot, so as to prevent the slide plate 33 from falling out of the slot.

[0024] Furthermore, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 4 It can be seen that a limiting plate 36 is fixedly connected to the other side of the sliding plate 33, and a threaded hole is opened through the top of the support frame 31. A threaded rod 37 is threadedly connected inside the threaded hole, and a connecting block 38 for cooperating with the limiting plate 36 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the threaded rod 37. Thus, when the operator turns the threaded rod 37 to drive the connecting block 38 to move down, the limiting plate 36 can be pushed to move towards the inner wall of the mounting ring 32. The movement of the limiting plate 36 can drive the connecting plate 34 and the pneumatic suction cup 35 to move through the sliding plate 33, thereby adsorbing the larger annular ceramic substrate.

[0025] Furthermore, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 4 It can be seen that the connecting block 38 is a frustum shape that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom. The limiting plate 36 is adapted to the connecting block 38, so that when the connecting block 38 moves downward, it can push the multiple limiting plates 36 to move in a direction away from each other.

[0026] Furthermore, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 It can be seen that a spring 310 is fixedly connected to one side of the mounting ring 39. One end of the spring 310 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the mounting ring 32, and the spring 310 is sleeved on the outside of the slide plate 33. Thus, when the operator moves the connecting block 38 downward, the moving limiting plate 36 will drive the slide plate 33 to move. The movement of the slide plate 33 can drive the mounting ring 39 to move and squeeze the spring 310. When the operator moves the connecting block 38 upward, the squeezed spring 310 will rebound, thereby driving the slide plate 33, the limiting plate 36, the connecting plate 34 and the pneumatic suction cup 35 to reset and move.

[0027] Furthermore, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 4 It can be seen that a knob 4 is fixedly connected to the top of the threaded rod 37, and the outer side of the knob 4 is provided with anti-slip texture to prevent the operator from slipping when turning the threaded rod 37.

[0028] Furthermore, refer to Figure 1 It can be seen that the top of the base 1 has multiple through holes, which makes it easy for staff to install the base 1 in the designated position using external bolts.

[0029] In this utility model, when the worker needs to drill holes in a large annular ceramic substrate to process it into a ceramic flange, the worker can turn the knob 4 and the threaded rod 37. When the threaded rod 37 is turned, it can drive the connecting block 38 to move downward, thereby pushing the limiting plate 36 to move towards the inner wall of the mounting ring 32. The movement of the limiting plate 36 can drive the sliding plate 33 to move. The movement of the sliding plate 33 can drive the mounting ring 39 to compress the spring 310 and drive the connecting plate 34 to move. The movement of the connecting plate 34 can drive the pneumatic suction cup 35 to move, thereby causing the pneumatic suction cup 35 to move away from the outer wall of the mounting ring 32, thus enabling the adsorption of the larger annular ceramic substrate. Then, the worker uses the pneumatic robotic arm 2 and the pneumatic suction cup 35 to transfer the annular ceramic substrate to the external drilling processing equipment. When workers need to process smaller annular ceramic substrates, they can turn the knob 4 and the threaded rod 37 in the opposite direction to make the connecting block 38 rise and move. At this time, the compressed spring 310 rebounds, causing the mounting ring 39, the sliding plate 33 and the limiting plate 36 to move away from the inner wall of the mounting ring 32. The movement of the sliding plate 33 can drive the pneumatic suction cup 35 to move through the connecting plate 34, which facilitates the adsorption of smaller annular substrates.
