Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of processing automation, and in particular to a system for automatic material discharge after pressing and molding. Background Technology

[0002] Valve, such as the intake and exhaust valves of an engine, is a key precision component of an internal combustion engine. It is usually made of heat-resistant alloy steel, powder metallurgy, or other materials and is formed by hot or cold pressing in a mold using a press. In a traditional valve pressing production line, each press generally requires at least one operator to be responsible for removing the formed workpiece, cleaning the mold, and monitoring the equipment's operating status.

[0003] The surface temperature of the freshly formed valve workpiece is very high. When manually handling the material, even with heat-resistant gloves, there is a very high probability of burns due to direct contact with the high-temperature part caused by issues such as movement stability, fatigue, and glove damage. At the same time, when handling the material, the operator's hands need to repeatedly enter the huge mold closing area of ​​the press.

[0004] Regarding the aforementioned technologies, during the manual material handling process, the high temperature of the valve processing equipment or the valve itself can easily injure the operator's hands. At the same time, prolonged close contact between the operator and the high-temperature stamping equipment can easily cause cumulative damage to the operator's health. Utility Model Content

[0024] This utility model discloses a system for automatic material discharge after pressing and molding. (Refer to...) Figures 1 to 5 A system for automatic material discharge after pressing and molding mainly consists of a main frame 1, which is rotatably installed in a preset position, which can be the body of a press. A bracket 2 is fixedly installed at one end of the main frame 1, and a first cylinder 3 is fixedly installed at the upper end of the bracket 2. A base 4 is fixedly installed on the piston rod of the first cylinder 3, and the base 4 is horizontally arranged. A second cylinder 5 is fixedly installed on the base 4, and a material-picking claw 6 is fixedly installed on the piston rod of the second cylinder 5. A material-picking port 7 is opened at one end of the material-picking claw 6.

[0025] The rotating installation of the main frame 1 enables the entire system to rotate at a preset position, allowing the picking claw 6 to cover multiple working areas. For example, it can pick up valves from the press die and transfer them to the discharge position, thereby reducing manual intervention and improving discharge efficiency and production automation. The main frame 1 can be rotated manually or driven by a driver, allowing the operator to move away from the working position of the press to a certain extent, reducing the operational risk for the operator and improving safety.

[0026] During material handling, the operator rotates the main frame 1 to the material handling position, then controls the first cylinder 3 to extend and retract to the material handling height, and then controls the second cylinder 5 to extend and retract, causing the material handling claw 6 to extend into the valve discharge position of the press. After reaching the designated position, the valve is engaged in the material handling port 7 of the material handling claw 6. Then, by extending and retracting the first cylinder 3, the height of the material handling claw 6 is raised, and the valve is removed from the discharge position. Then, the main frame 1 is rotated to the unloading position, and by using the extension and retraction of the first cylinder 3 and the second cylinder 5, the valve is placed in the storage position. Then, the main frame 1 is rotated to move to the ready material handling position. The above cycle is repeated to complete multiple material handling operations, reducing the labor intensity of the operator and improving production safety.

[0027] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, a support frame 8 is also installed on the upper end of the base 4, and the second cylinder 5 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the support frame 8. An opening is provided at the lower end of the support frame 8. A first slide rail 9 is also installed on the upper end of the base 4, and a first slider 10 is slidably installed within the first slide rail 9. The bottom of the picking claw 6 is fixedly connected to the first slider 10, and the first slider 10 slides within the opening. The combination of the first slide rail 9 and the first slider 10 enables the picking claw 6 to move smoothly and precisely in the horizontal direction, improving the positional accuracy of picking and discharging materials, reducing friction and wear, and extending the service life of the equipment.

[0028] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 5 In some embodiments, a mounting base 11 is installed on the piston rod of the first cylinder 3. The mounting base 11 includes a top plate, a vertical plate, and a bottom plate, which are sequentially and fixedly connected in the vertical direction. The piston rod of the first cylinder 3 is fixedly connected to the top plate of the mounting base 11 by bolts and nuts. The bottom of the base 4 is fixedly connected to the upper end face of the bottom plate of the mounting base 11. The base 4 serves as an integrated connection point, indirectly and tightly fixing the support frame 8, the first slide rail 9, and the piston rod of the first cylinder 3, realizing synchronous movement of each component and improving the overall coordination and stability of the system. This reduces vibration and deviation caused by loose or misaligned components, ensuring the accuracy of the picking claw 6 in vertical and horizontal movement, thereby improving the reliability and consistency of material output.

[0029] Reference Figures 2 to 5 In some embodiments, the base 4 extends outward to form an adjustment section 12. An adjustment port 13 is provided at a corresponding position on the adjustment section 12 and the base 4. An adjustment bolt 14 is installed within the adjustment port 13, and the mounting base 11 and the base 4 are fixedly connected by the adjustment bolt 14. The adjustment section 12 and the adjustment bolt 14 allow for fine-tuning of the relative position between the mounting base 11 and the base 4, enabling the system to adapt to valve workpieces of different sizes or material handling distances, thus enhancing the system's flexibility and versatility.

[0030] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, a second slider 16 is also fixedly mounted on one end of the bracket 2 near the first cylinder 3. A second slide rail 15 is slidably mounted on the second slider 16, and the second slide rail 15 is fixedly connected to the vertical plate of the mounting base 11. The second slide rail 15 and the second slider 16 provide additional guidance and support for the mounting base 11, making the piston rod of the first cylinder 3 more stable and precise during vertical movement, and reducing lateral load and sway.

[0031] Reference Figure 1 In some embodiments, a rotating platform 17 is fixedly installed at the end of the main frame 1 furthest from the support 2. A drive motor can be installed inside the rotating platform 17 to drive its rotation. A rotating shaft 18 is rotatably installed inside the rotating platform 17, and its bottom end is fixed to a preset position, which can be the machine body of the press. The rotating platform 17 and the rotating shaft 18 enable stable rotation of the main frame 1, allowing the system to easily switch between presses, conveyors, or other workstations, facilitating flexible switching between material handling and unloading, and expanding the system's application range. The rotating shaft 18 is fixed to the foundation or frame, providing a reliable center of rotation, ensuring the smoothness and accuracy of the rotation process, and reducing the risk of deviation.

[0032] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, a first displacement sensor 19 is also installed on the first cylinder 3, and a second displacement sensor 20 is also installed on the second cylinder 5. The first displacement sensor 19 and the second displacement sensor 20 can be installed inside or outside the cylinder. They can be displacement monitors built into the cylinder using magnetostrictive and magnetoresistive principles, or they can use infrared detection to detect displacement distance. The first displacement sensor 19 or the second displacement sensor 20 can monitor the piston position of the first cylinder 3 or the second cylinder 5 in real time, providing accurate position feedback, enabling the system to achieve closed-loop control, and improving the positioning accuracy of material handling and discharging. It can automatically adjust the stroke to adapt to the requirements of different workpieces, enhancing the system's intelligence and adaptability.

[0033] The first displacement sensor 19, the second displacement sensor 20, the first cylinder 3, and the second cylinder 5 are all connected to the control terminal via wireless or wired electrical signal connection for regulation. The control terminal adjusts the operating parameters of each device. Each electrical control device is connected to a relevant power or air pressure source. The first cylinder 3 and the second cylinder 5 can also be replaced by electric cylinders.

[0034] The implementation principle of the automatic material discharge system after pressing and molding in this embodiment of the utility model is as follows: By integrating the rotating main frame 1, cylinder drive, and dedicated material handling claw 6, the system automatically picks up materials from the mold and transfers them to the unloading station. This significantly reduces manual intervention, improves production efficiency and automation, and keeps operators away from the stamping area, greatly enhancing safety. The system also improves the smoothness and positional accuracy of the horizontal movement of the material handling claw 6, reducing wear and extending equipment life while ensuring operational reliability. Furthermore, the fixed design of the rotating shaft 18 to the foundation provides a stable center for rotational movement, effectively preventing the risk of offset. The installation of a first displacement sensor 19 and a second displacement sensor 20 allows the system to monitor and adjust the stroke of the first cylinder 3 or the second cylinder 5 in real time, achieving high positioning accuracy and adaptability. This enables the system to flexibly adapt to the production requirements of different workpieces, realizing intelligent material handling.

[0035] The above are all preferred embodiments of this utility model, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. Therefore, all equivalent changes made to the structure, shape and principle of this utility model should be covered within the scope of protection of this utility model.
