[0002] Insert injection molded products require a stamped terminal to be placed into the injection mold for injection molding. Due to the high precision requirements of the fit between the injection mold and the stamped terminal, the stamped terminal must be precisely placed in the corresponding position within the injection mold for injection molding to proceed. Traditionally, this is done manually by employees. After prolonged continuous production, it is impossible to guarantee efficient, accurate, and stable placement of the stamped terminal. If the terminal is not placed correctly, it may cause mold breakage, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive, hindering smooth and efficient industrial production. Therefore, an automatic loading and unloading gripper device for insert injection molded products is crucial. After the mold ejects, a cylinder controls the gripper to perform the loading and unloading actions, which, in conjunction with a robotic arm control mechanism, reaches the unloading position for unloading. This enables fully automated loading and unloading of insert injection molded products.
[0003] Existing automated mechanisms cannot simultaneously handle terminal feeding, injection molding of finished products, and removal of injection gates. Incorrect terminal placement can lead to mold pressing, requiring significant manpower and resources. Furthermore, injection gate materials need to be manually collected periodically, increasing labor costs.
[0004] Therefore, a material handling gripper device for insert injection molded products is proposed to address the above issues. Utility Model Content

[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. 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.
[0015] like Figure 1-3 As shown, the insert injection molding product loading and unloading gripper device includes a fixed base, a stamped terminal clamping assembly, an injection molded product clamping assembly, an injection molded sprue clamping assembly, and positioning posts 10. The fixed base is equipped with the stamped terminal clamping assembly, the injection molded product clamping assembly, and the injection molded sprue clamping assembly. The positioning posts 10 are connected to both sides of the fixed base for docking and positioning the stamped terminal clamping assembly during loading. A robotic arm is connected to the fixed base. This device enables automated production with automatic product loading and unloading, and controlled sprue recycling, eliminating the need for manual operation, ensuring high efficiency and stability, and reducing quality issues. The positioning posts 10 provide greater precision, efficiency, and stability.
[0016] Specifically, there are two sets of stamping terminal clamping assemblies, which are respectively set on both sides of the fixed base; the stamping terminal clamping assembly includes a stamping terminal clamping drive cylinder 3, which is connected to the fixed base, and a stamping terminal clamp 2 is connected to each of the two clamping moving ends of the stamping terminal clamping drive cylinder 3.
[0017] Specifically, there are two sets of injection molded product clamping components, which are respectively set on both sides of the front end of the fixed base. The injection molded product clamping components include injection molded product gripper drive cylinders 6, which are connected to the fixed base. Each of the two clamping moving ends of the injection molded product gripper drive cylinder 6 is connected to an injection molded product gripper 5.
[0018] Specifically, there are two sets of injection molding sprue clamping components, which are respectively set on both sides of the rear end of the fixed base. The injection molding sprue clamping components include injection molding sprue clamping claw driving cylinders 9, which are connected to the fixed base. Each of the two clamping moving ends of the injection molding sprue clamping claw driving cylinders 9 is connected to an injection molding sprue clamping claw 8.
[0019] Specifically, the robotic arm controls the stamping terminal clamp 2 to reach the material placement area of the stamping terminal 1. The stamping terminal clamp drive cylinder 3 controls the terminal clamp 2 to pick up the terminal 1 and move it to the injection mold area to wait for the injection molded product 4 to be formed. After the product is formed, the mold will cause the injection molded product 4 and the injection sprue material 7 to pop out and separate. The injection molded product gripper drive cylinder 6 and the injection sprue material gripper drive cylinder 9 control the injection molded product gripper 5 and the injection sprue material gripper 8 to pick up the injection molded product 4 and the injection sprue material 8 at the same time. Then, the robotic arm and the stamping terminal clamp cylinder 3, together with the positioning column 10, place the stamping terminal 1 picked up by the stamping terminal clamp 2 into the injection mold to complete the feeding of the stamping terminal 1. Then, the robotic arm will control the grippers to reach the placement locations of the injection molded product 4 and the injection sprue material 7 in sequence to complete the unloading and recycling of the injection molded product 4 and the injection sprue material 7.
[0020] Specifically, the robotic arm controls the stamping terminal clamp 2 to reach the material placement area of the stamping terminal 1. The stamping terminal clamp drive cylinder 3 controls the terminal clamp 2 to pick up the terminal 1 and move it to the injection mold area until the injection molded product 4 is formed. After forming, the mold will eject and separate the injection molded product 4 and the injection sprue material 7. The injection molded product gripper drive cylinder 6 and the injection sprue material gripper drive cylinder 9 control the injection molded product gripper 5 and the injection sprue material gripper 8 to simultaneously pick up the injection molded product 4 and the injection sprue material 8. Then, the robotic arm and the stamping terminal clamp cylinder 3, in conjunction with the positioning column 10, place the stamping terminal 1 picked up by the stamping terminal clamp 2 into the injection mold to complete the loading of the stamping terminal 1. Then, the robotic arm will control the grippers to sequentially reach the placement locations of the injection molded product 4 and the injection sprue material 7 to complete the unloading and recycling of the injection molded product 4 and the injection sprue material 7. In this way, the automatic loading and unloading of insert injection molded products can be realized. This structure is simple to maintain and has strong applicability.
[0021] Specifically, positioning posts 10 are installed on both sides of the stamping terminal gripper to ensure precise positioning when the gripper places the stamping terminal, effectively preventing mold problems caused by improper placement of the stamping terminal. During injection molding, in conjunction with other robotic arm structures, it can achieve automated production with automatic product loading and unloading, material head control and recycling, eliminating the need for manual operation, ensuring high efficiency and stability, and reducing quality issues.
[0022] This insert injection molding product loading and unloading gripper device automates the entire injection molding process, from loading sub-parts and unloading finished products to managing and recycling sprue heads. Compared to manual operation, it is more efficient and stable. This structure is particularly suitable for insert injection molding products, where traditional manual operation makes it difficult for employees to guarantee high efficiency and stable continuous production. Therefore, the multi-gripper structure is designed for efficient, stable, and precise loading and unloading, as well as better managing and recycling sprue heads, greatly improving product production efficiency and reducing product defects caused by human error. It increases work efficiency while saving labor and material costs, and is currently being used in automated production.
[0023] This insert injection molding product loading and unloading gripper device achieves automatic material handling, cavity-specific unloading, and controlled material head recovery through the simultaneous movement of multiple sets of grippers. It features a simple structure, low processing difficulty, and can be standardized for products with different cavity counts, increasing efficiency while reducing the probability of problems. With multiple sets of grippers, it provides efficient, stable, and precise loading and unloading, and better controls and recovers material heads, significantly improving production efficiency and reducing product defects caused by human error. This increases work efficiency while saving labor and material costs.
[0024] Finally, it should be noted that the above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the utility model.
