[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of devices for picking up or putting down objects or materials, specifically a multi-station material handling device for silicone products. Background Technology

[0002] Silicone rubber is a type of silicone product. Silicone products are made from silicone as the main raw material through processes such as molding, extrusion, and injection molding. The multi-station material handling device for silicone products is an integrated automated equipment specifically designed to simultaneously complete the product gripping, demolding, and handling tasks of multiple molds or workstations during the silicone product production process. Its core function is to significantly improve production efficiency, reduce manual intervention, and solve the part handling problem caused by the flexible and easily deformable characteristics of silicone products through multi-station collaborative operation.

[0003] Existing multi-station material handling devices have poor adaptability to silicone products of different sizes. The mechanism for placing silicone products is mostly an integrated design, which is fixedly connected to the carrier plate. It is impossible to quickly disassemble and replace the adaptable parts according to the size of the silicone products. When production needs are switched to silicone products of different sizes, the entire placement mechanism needs to be disassembled and replaced, which not only increases production costs but also significantly extends the station changeover time. This makes it difficult to meet the needs of flexible production and reduces the practicality of the material handling device. Utility Model Content

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a multi-station material handling device for silicone products, including a worktable, a rotating groove on the upper side of the worktable, and a rotating disk rotatably connected inside the rotating groove; The workbench has a heat dissipation groove inside, and the workbench extends out from the left side of the heat dissipation groove. A rotating motor is fixedly connected to the bottom wall of the heat dissipation groove. The rotating disk is equipped with three placement mechanisms. All three placement mechanisms can place silicone products. At the same time, the placement mechanisms can be quickly disassembled and replaced to suit silicone products of different sizes. The three placement mechanisms have the same connection structure and are arranged in a ring array. The following description focuses on the left placement mechanism. The placement mechanism includes a vacuum pump, vacuum pipes, vacuum suction cups, a fixing plate, a connecting block, a placement slot, a storage slot, a lifting ring, and two telescopic motors.

[0006] Preferably, the output shaft of the rotating motor extends rotatably into the interior of the rotating groove, and the upper end of the output shaft of the rotating motor is fixedly connected to the rotating disk.

[0020] Please see Figure 1-5This utility model provides a new technical solution: a multi-station material handling device for silicone products, including a workbench 1: the workbench 1 is the basic support structure of the entire device. The upper side of the workbench 1 is provided with a rotating groove 2 for mounting a rotating disk 3. The interior of the workbench 1 is provided with a heat dissipation groove 4 for accommodating a rotating motor 5. The workbench 1 provides a stable mounting carrier for components such as the rotating disk 3 and the rotating motor 5. At the same time, the heat dissipation groove 4 provides heat dissipation space for the rotating motor 5, ensuring the overall structural stability of the device. Rotating groove 2: Rotating groove 2 is a groove structure opened on the upper side of the worktable 1. The interior of rotating groove 2 is rotatably connected with rotating disk 3. The size of rotating groove 2 is adapted to the bottom size of rotating disk 3. Rotating groove 2 provides rotation guidance for rotating disk 3, restricts the lateral displacement of rotating disk 3, and ensures that rotating disk 3 can only rotate around its own axis within rotating groove 2, providing a stable motion trajectory for multi-station conversion. Rotary disk 3: Rotary disk 3 is a circular disk-shaped component. The bottom of the rotating disk 3 is rotatably connected to the rotating groove 2. The lower center of the rotating disk 3 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the rotating motor 5. Three placement mechanisms are arranged in a circular array on the upper side of the rotating disk 3. The rotating disk 3 carries the three placement mechanisms and can rotate in the rotating groove 2 under the drive of the rotating motor 5, realizing the switching of the three placement mechanisms and providing a switching carrier for multi-station material handling operations. Heat dissipation slot 4: Heat dissipation slot 4 is a slot structure opened inside the workbench 1. The left side of heat dissipation slot 4 extends out of the workbench 1. A rotating motor 5 is fixedly connected to the bottom wall of heat dissipation slot 4. Heat dissipation slot 4 provides installation space for rotating motor 5. At the same time, the structure of "extending out of the workbench 1 on the left side" enables air circulation to dissipate the heat generated by rotating motor 5 when it is working, so as to avoid damage to the motor due to overheating. Rotary motor 5: Rotary motor 5 is the rotational power output component of the device. Rotary motor 5 is fixedly connected to the bottom wall of the heat dissipation tank 4. The output shaft of rotary motor 5 is sequentially "rotated and extended into the interior of worktable 1" and "rotated and extended into the interior of rotating groove 2". The upper end of the output shaft of rotary motor 5 is fixedly connected to the lower center of rotating disk 3. When rotary motor 5 is started, its output shaft will drive the rotating disk 3 fixedly connected to it, so that the rotating disk 3 will make stable rotational motion in rotating groove 2, providing a power source for workstation switching. Vacuum pump 6: Vacuum pump 6 is a negative pressure generating component. Vacuum pump 6 is fixedly connected inside the rotating disk 3. The upper side of vacuum pump 6 extends out of the upper surface of rotating disk 3. The upper side of vacuum pump 6 is fixedly connected to vacuum pipe 7 and the two are internally connected. When vacuum pump 6 is working, it generates negative pressure through its internal structure. The negative pressure is transmitted to vacuum suction cup 8 through vacuum pipe 7, providing power for vacuum suction cup 8 to adsorb silicone products and ensuring that silicone products can be firmly fixed. Vacuum pipe 7: Vacuum pipe 7 is a negative pressure conduction component. The lower end of vacuum pipe 7 is fixedly connected to the upper side of vacuum pump 6, and the upper end of vacuum pipe 7 is fixedly connected to the lower side of vacuum suction cup 8. The three are internally connected. A fixed plate 9 is also fixedly connected to the outer surface of vacuum pipe 7. Vacuum pipe 7 stably transmits the negative pressure generated by vacuum pump 6 to vacuum suction cup 8, enabling vacuum suction cup 8 to form an adsorption force. At the same time, it provides an installation carrier for fixed plate 9, indirectly realizing the connection between connecting block 10 and rotating disk 3. Vacuum suction cup 8: Vacuum suction cup 8 is a silicone product adsorption component. Vacuum suction cup 8 is fixedly connected to the upper end of vacuum pipe 7. The interior of vacuum suction cup 8 is connected to the interior of vacuum pipe 7. The upper surface of vacuum suction cup 8 is used to contact silicone products. When vacuum pump 6 transmits negative pressure through vacuum pipe 7, the upper surface of vacuum suction cup 8 will generate adsorption force, which will firmly adsorb the silicone products placed by the operator onto its own surface, preventing the silicone products from shifting when changing work positions. Fixed plate 9: Fixed plate 9 is a connecting transition component. Fixed plate 9 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of vacuum pipe 7. The outer surface of fixed plate 9 is machined with a threaded structure. Fixed plate 9 forms a threaded connection with connecting block 10 through the threads on the outer surface. Fixed plate 9 provides a detachable connection carrier for connecting block 10. The "threaded structure on the outer surface" enables quick assembly and disassembly of connecting block 10, allowing operators to replace the appropriate connecting block 10 according to the size of the silicone product, thus improving the versatility of the device. Connecting block 10: Connecting block 10 is an auxiliary component for placing silicone products. Connecting block 10 is connected to the outer surface of fixed plate 9 by internal thread. A placement groove 11 is provided on the upper side of connecting block 10. Two telescopic motors 14 are fixedly connected to the lower side of connecting block 10. Connecting block 10 carries the placement groove 11 and telescopic motors 14, providing a placement space for silicone products and a mounting carrier for telescopic motors 14. It can also be quickly replaced through threaded connection to adapt to silicone products of different sizes. Placement slot 11: Placement slot 11 is a space for placing silicone products. Placement slot 11 is opened on the upper side of connecting block 10. The interior of placement slot 11 corresponds to the position of vacuum suction cup 8. A storage slot 12 is also opened on the upper side of placement slot 11. Placement slot 11 limits the placement position of silicone products and constrains the silicone products within a fixed area. In conjunction with the adsorption force of vacuum suction cup 8, it further ensures the stability of silicone products during placement and workstation transition, while providing a basis for opening storage slot 12. Storage slot 12: Storage slot 12 is the movement space of lifting ring 13. Storage slot 12 is opened on the upper side of placement slot 11. The interior of storage slot 12 is slidably connected to lifting ring 13 and the size is adapted to it. The interior of storage slot 12 is also connected to the output shaft of telescopic motor 14. Storage slot 12 provides sliding guidance and storage space for lifting ring 13. When lifting ring 13 is not working, it can be stored in storage slot 12. When lifting ring 13 is working, its movement direction is restricted to ensure that lifting ring 13 can only slide up and down. Lifting ring 13: Lifting ring 13 is the ejection component for silicone products. Lifting ring 13 is slidably connected inside the receiving groove 12. The lower side of lifting ring 13 is fixedly connected to the output shafts of two telescopic motors 14 respectively. The inner side of lifting ring 13 corresponds to the position of vacuum suction cup 8. When the telescopic motor 14 drives lifting ring 13 to move upward, lifting ring 13 will contact the silicone product in the placement groove 11 and push the silicone product upward, finally removing the silicone product from the placement groove 11 and completing the material removal operation. Two telescopic motors 14: The two telescopic motors 14 are the lifting power components of the lifting ring 13. Both telescopic motors 14 are fixedly connected to the lower side of the connecting block 10 and are respectively set on the left and right sides of the fixed plate 9. The telescopic rods of the two telescopic motors 14 "slide into the interior of the connecting block 10" and "slide into the interior of the storage groove 12" in sequence. The upper ends of the output shafts of the two telescopic motors 14 are fixedly connected to the lower side of the lifting ring 13. When it is necessary to retrieve materials, the two telescopic motors 14 are started, and their output shafts drive the lifting ring 13 to slide up and down along the storage groove 12. The "symmetrical arrangement" structure can ensure that the lifting ring 13 is subjected to balanced force and avoid the lifting ring 13 tilting, which would cause damage to the silicone products.

[0021] Furthermore, a rotary motor 5 is fixedly installed on the bottom wall of the heat dissipation groove 4 inside the workbench 1. After its output shaft rotates and extends into the workbench 1, its upper end rotates and extends into the rotating groove 2. Since the upper end of the output shaft of the rotary motor 5 is fixedly connected to the rotating disk 3, when the rotary motor 5 is started, it will drive the rotating disk 3 to rotate in the rotating groove 2. Three placement mechanisms are arranged in a ring array on the rotating disk 3. By rotating the rotating disk 3, the workstation of different placement mechanisms can be switched, which provides convenience for multi-station material handling operations.

[0022] In each placement mechanism, the vacuum pump 6, which is fixedly connected inside the rotating disk 3, starts to work. The vacuum pump 6, through the vacuum pipe 7 fixedly connected to the upper side, causes the vacuum suction cup 8, which is fixedly connected to the upper end of the vacuum pipe 7, to generate an adsorption force. The operator places the silicone product on the vacuum suction cup 8, and the vacuum suction cup 8 uses the adsorption force to firmly adsorb the silicone product, thereby fixing the silicone product inside the placement slot 11.

[0023] When the placement mechanism needs to adapt to silicone products of different sizes, since the outer surface of the fixed plate 9, which is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the vacuum pipe 7, has a threaded structure, and the connecting block 10 is threadedly connected to the outer surface of the fixed plate 9, the operator can easily remove the connecting block 10 from the fixed plate 9 by simply rotating it. Then, according to the specific size of the silicone product to be placed, a suitable connecting block 10 is selected and installed onto the fixed plate 9 by means of threaded connection. This design enables the placement mechanism to quickly adapt to silicone products of different sizes, improving the versatility and flexibility of the device.

[0024] When it is necessary to remove the silicone product from the placement slot 11, the suction effect of the vacuum pump 6 must first be released to separate the silicone product from the vacuum suction cup 8. After the suction is released, the two telescopic motors 14 fixedly connected to the lower side of the connecting block 10 are then activated. These two telescopic motors 14 are respectively located on the left and right sides of the fixed plate 9. After their telescopic rods slide into the interior of the connecting block 10, the upper ends of their output shafts slide into the storage slots 12 opened on the upper side of the placement slot 11 on the connecting block 10. The upper ends of the output shafts of the two telescopic motors 14 are fixedly connected to the lifting rings 13 slidably connected inside the storage slots 12. After the telescopic motors 14 are activated, they drive the telescopic rods to rise, which in turn drives the lifting rings 13 to move upward. The lifting rings 13 push the silicone product located in the placement slot 11 to rise, and finally remove the silicone product from the interior of the placement slot 11, completing the material removal operation.

[0025] Example: Precision installation and material handling device with limit ring Please see Figure 5 A limiting ring 15 is added to the lower side of the original device fixing plate 9, and is set coaxially with the fixing plate 9. It is fixedly connected by welding, and the limiting ring 15 is in contact with the lower side of the connecting block 10. When installing the connecting block 10, align the inner thread of the connecting block 10 with the outer thread of the fixing plate 9 and rotate it. When the lower side of the connecting block 10 contacts the upper end face of the limiting ring 15, the limiting ring 15 will prevent the connecting block 10 from being screwed down further. At this time, the connecting block 10 is installed in place, and the upper side of the placement groove 11 is on the same plane as the upper side of the fixing plate 9. In subsequent use, the vacuum pump 6 is started, and the negative pressure is transmitted to the vacuum suction cup 8 through the vacuum pipe 7 to adsorb the silicone products placed in the placement groove 11. After the rotating plate 3 drives the placement mechanism to rotate to the material picking station, the vacuum pump 6 stops working, and the telescopic motor 14 drives the lifting ring 13 to move upward, pushing the silicone products out of the placement groove 11. After adding the limiting ring 15, there is no need to rely on the operator's experience to repeatedly adjust the position of the connecting block 10. This ensures that the placement groove 11 and the upper side of the fixing plate 9 are flush after each installation, improving the consistency of the installation of the connecting block 10. It also prevents the silicone product from getting stuck or deformed due to uneven force caused by the placement groove 11 and the fixing plate 9 being uneven. This ensures the integrity of the product during the material handling process, reduces the adjustment steps during the installation of the connecting block 10, simplifies the operation process, and reduces the workload of the operator.

[0026] The embodiments of the present utility model have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present utility model.
