Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of material handling technology, specifically a material handling and loading mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] In industrial production processes, material handling and loading are core components that determine production efficiency and product quality. For irregularly shaped metal parts, traditional manual handling methods are extremely inefficient. Due to the irregular shape of flat metal parts, workers need to spend a significant amount of time positioning and adjusting them during handling, and the amount of material handled each time is also very limited. Furthermore, manual handling is limited by the physical strength and energy of workers; after long hours of work, workers easily become fatigued, further reducing handling efficiency.

[0003] Besides low efficiency, the accuracy and timeliness of manual handling are also difficult to guarantee. Workers struggle to accurately control the handling position and timing of irregularly shaped flat metals, which can lead to material placement deviations, affecting subsequent processing steps, and potentially causing production delays and economic losses. For example, in the manufacturing of precision electronic components, deviations in the handling of irregularly shaped flat metals can cause component assembly failures and a significant increase in the defect rate. Existing handling equipment is mostly designed for regularly shaped materials; for irregularly shaped metals, the positioning accuracy is low, making it difficult to accurately place irregular metals in the designated position during handling, affecting the accuracy and efficiency of subsequent processing steps. Therefore, the market urgently needs to develop a handling and loading mechanism to help solve these existing problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a material handling and loading mechanism to solve the problems that most of the handling equipment proposed in the background art is designed for materials with regular shapes. For irregularly shaped metals, the handling process is prone to unstable gripping, low positioning accuracy and low handling efficiency.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a material handling and loading mechanism, including a worktable, on which a loading mechanism is fixedly installed. The loading mechanism includes a fixed platform and a composite silicone suction cup. The fixed platform is fixedly connected to the worktable. A support platform is fixedly installed on the worktable. A support frame is fixedly installed on the support platform. A first suspension is fixedly installed on the support frame. A first high-precision linear guide rail is fixedly installed below the first suspension. A first movable guide rail is slidably connected below the first high-precision linear guide rail. A second suspension is vertically fixedly installed at one end of the first movable guide rail. A second high-precision linear guide rail is fixedly installed on one side of the second suspension. A second movable guide rail is slidably connected to one side of the second high-precision linear guide rail.

[0006] Through the above technical solution, the first high-precision linear guide and the first moving guide provide parallel linear motion, and the second high-precision linear guide and the second moving guide provide perpendicular linear motion, providing a precise linear motion trajectory for the suction cup assembly, ensuring the smoothness of the motion and the positioning accuracy, achieving precise positioning, and improving the accuracy of subsequent processing steps.

[0007] In a preferred embodiment, the present invention can be further configured such that the composite silicone suction cup includes two height-adjustable vacuum nozzles.

[0008] The above technical solution employs a specially designed adjustable suction cup with two height-adjustable vacuum nozzles, which can adaptively adjust to the surface shape of irregular metals to ensure stable adsorption. At the same time, the suction cup is made of highly elastic and high-friction rubber material to enhance adsorption force, improve handling stability, and effectively avoid problems such as slippage and bumps.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment, the present invention can be further configured as follows: the second movable guide rail is fixedly connected to the composite silicone suction cup; a first cylinder is fixedly installed at one end of the first suspension; the lifting end of the first cylinder is fixedly connected to one end of the first movable guide rail; a second cylinder is fixedly installed on the second suspension; and the lifting end of the second cylinder is fixedly connected to the upper end of the second movable guide rail.

[0010] The above technical solution utilizes a first cylinder to provide lateral displacement power for the composite silicone suction cup and a second cylinder to provide vertical displacement power for the composite silicone suction cup, thereby enabling the suction cup assembly to move back and forth and complete the handling action.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment, the present invention can be further configured as follows: a connecting frame is fixedly installed on one side of the first moving guide rail, a high-speed buffer is fixedly installed on the connecting frame, a limiting seat is fixedly installed on one side of the first suspension, and the buffer end of the high-speed buffer is located on the side close to the limiting seat.

[0012] The above technical solution utilizes a high-speed buffer to provide deceleration and limiting effects, preventing the workpiece from falling due to excessive speed during the lateral movement of the first moving guide rail, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the material handling and feeding action.

[0013] In a preferred embodiment, the present invention can be further configured such that: a feeder is fixedly installed on the support platform, a transfer platform is provided at the discharge end of the feeder, and a processing table is provided on one side of the transfer platform.

[0016] 2. This utility model, through optimized design of the overall structure, reduces complex mechanical structures and intermediate transmission links, making the composition of the equipment simpler and clearer. This not only reduces the risk of equipment failure but also facilitates the installation, debugging, and maintenance of the equipment, thereby improving its reliability and maintainability.
