Abstract

This utility model discloses a mobile frame for a honeycomb core impregnation robot, aiming to solve the problems of existing honeycomb core impregnation methods, which involve fixing the honeycomb core product with a frame and then using a crane to place the honeycomb core product into the glue tank for impregnation. This process largely requires manual assistance, is labor-intensive, and carries significant safety risks due to the crane lifting method. The robot includes a gripper for handling the honeycomb core workpiece, several glue tanks located at the lower end of the robot, and a linear ground rail for driving the horizontal displacement of the robot. The linear ground rail includes two parallel ground rail housings with open upper ends; a ball screw disposed inside the ground rail housing; and a movable seat movably mounted on the upper surface of the ground rail housing and fixed with the ball screw pair. The ball screw pair drives the movable seat to move horizontally along the ground rail housing when the ball screws rotate. This utility model is particularly suitable for the mechanized operation of honeycomb core impregnation and has high social value and application prospects.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of honeycomb core processing technology, specifically to a mobile frame for a honeycomb core immersion robot. Background Technology

[0002] The manufacturing process of honeycomb cores includes: adhesive coating, hot pressing, edge trimming, stretching, shaping, impregnation, curing, and sheet cutting. The impregnation process after shaping determines the density distribution and color uniformity of the honeycomb after curing, playing a crucial role.

[0003] Existing methods for impregnating honeycomb cores involve fixing the honeycomb core product with an iron frame and then using a crane to place the product into the glue tank for impregnation. This process largely requires manual intervention, is labor-intensive, and carries significant safety risks due to the crane lifting method. Therefore, we propose a mobile frame for a honeycomb core impregnation robot. Utility Model Content

[0005] This utility model provides a mobile frame for a honeycomb core immersion robot, including a robot for gripping honeycomb core workpieces, several glue pools disposed at the lower end of the robot, and a linear ground rail for driving the robot to move horizontally. The linear ground rail includes two parallel ground rail housings with open upper ends; a ball screw disposed inside the ground rail housing; a movable seat movably mounted on the upper surface of the ground rail housing and fixed with the ball screw pair, the ball screw pair driving the movable seat to move horizontally along the ground rail housing when the ball screw rotates; a servo motor for driving the ball screw to rotate, the servo motor being fixed to the ground rail housing by a mounting base; a vertical frame fixed to the upper end of the movable seat; and a lifting beam connecting the two vertical frames to opposite sides, with a robot arm mounted on the lifting beam.

[0006] Optionally, the rail housing is equipped with a drag chain for protecting cables, wires, air hoses and hydraulic hoses.

[0007] Optionally, the lower end of the rail housing is provided with several adjustable support feet to maintain the levelness of the rail housing.

[0008] Optionally, the lifting beam assembly includes: a horizontal steel beam horizontally disposed between two vertical frames; side seats symmetrically fixed to the two free ends of the horizontal steel beam; a lifting motor and several guide shoes fixed to the side seats on the side away from the horizontal steel beam; at least one straight guide rod matched with the guide shoes and vertically fixed to the vertical frame; a lead screw fixed to the output end of the lifting motor; and a lead screw seat threaded onto the lead screw and fixed to the vertical frame.

[0010] Optionally, the two ground rail housings are fixed together at one of their free ends by a ground rail connecting rod.

[0011] The present invention has the following main advantages: This invention, through the setting of a linear ground rail, drives the honeycomb core workpiece to move in both the X and Y axes after it is grasped by a robotic arm. This ensures the automated and mechanized impregnation operation of the honeycomb core workpiece, reduces manual operation, and allows the impregnation speed and time to be arbitrarily set under mechanized operation, saving time and effort, meeting different process requirements, and significantly reducing safety risks.

[0014] In the diagram: linear ground rail 10, ground rail housing 101, adjustable support foot 102, drag chain 103, servo motor 104, mounting base 105, moving base 106, vertical frame 107, lifting crossbeam 108, horizontal steel crossbeam 181, side seat 182, guide shoe 183, linear guide rod 184, lifting motor 185, lead screw 186, lead screw seat 187, robot arm 20, honeycomb core workpiece 30, glue pool 40, ground rail connecting rod 50. Detailed Implementation

[0015] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-4 The present invention will be further illustrated by the following embodiments:

[0016] Example 1: A mobile frame for a honeycomb core impregnation robot, as shown in the attached figure. Figure 1-4The system includes a robotic arm 20 for gripping the honeycomb core workpiece 30, and several glue pools 40 disposed at the lower end of the robotic arm 20. In this embodiment, there are two glue pools 40, which are used for the honeycomb core workpiece 30 to enter the glue liquid for wetting under the drive of the robotic arm 20, and a linear ground rail 10 for driving the robotic arm 20 to move horizontally, so that the robotic arm 20 and the gripped honeycomb core workpiece 30 can automatically move horizontally to the glue pool 40 area for glue impregnation. In this embodiment, as Figure 2 As shown, the linear ground rail 10 includes two parallel ground rail housings 101 with open upper ends; a ball screw disposed inside the ground rail housing 101; a movable seat 106 movably mounted on the upper surface of the ground rail housing 101 and fixed with a ball screw pair, the ball screw pair driving the movable seat 106 to move horizontally along the ground rail housing 101 when the ball screw rotates; a servo motor 104 for driving the ball screw to rotate, the servo motor 104 being fixed to the ground rail housing 101 via a mounting seat 105; a vertical frame 107 fixed to the upper end of the movable seat 106; a lifting crossbeam 108 connected to the two vertical frames 107 facing each other, and a robot arm 20 mounted on the lifting crossbeam 108; and a drag chain 103 for protecting cables, wires, air compressor pipes, and hydraulic pipes inside the ground rail housing 101.

[0017] In this embodiment, as Figure 1-2 As shown, the lower end of the ground rail housing 101 is provided with several adjustable support feet 102 for maintaining the horizontality of the ground rail housing 101. It can be understood that the adjustment method in this embodiment is threaded lifting adjustment, which is simple and effective.

[0018] In this embodiment, refer to the appendix. Figure 1-2 After the honeycomb core workpiece 30 is grasped by the robot arm 20, two servo motors 104 start synchronously. Through gear or chain transmission, they drive the ball screw to rotate. In conjunction with the ball screw pair on the ball screw, the honeycomb core workpiece 30 is moved horizontally. After reaching the glue tank 40 area, the robot arm 20 flips the honeycomb core workpiece 30 and puts it into the glue tank 40 for glue impregnation. After glue impregnation is completed, the honeycomb core workpiece 30 is taken out and moved to the unloading area (left side). This ensures the movement of the honeycomb core workpiece 30 in the X-axis direction and realizes the automation and mechanized precise movement of the glue impregnation process.

[0019] Example 2, the difference between this example and Example 1 is that, as Figure 2-4As shown, the lifting beam component 108 includes: a horizontal steel beam 181 horizontally disposed between two vertical frames 107; side seats 182 symmetrically fixed to the two free ends of the horizontal steel beam 181; a lifting motor 185 and several guide shoes 183 fixed to the side seat 182 on the side away from the horizontal steel beam 181; at least one straight guide rod 184 matched to the guide shoe 183 and vertically fixed to the vertical frame 107; a lead screw 186 fixed to the output end of the lifting motor 185; and a lead screw seat 187 threaded onto the lead screw 186 and fixed to the vertical frame 107. In this embodiment, as shown... Figure 4 As shown, a lead screw fixing seat is also fixed on the side of the side seat 182 away from the horizontal steel beam 181, and the lead screw fixing seat is sleeved on the lead screw 186 to enhance the stability of the lead screw 186. In this embodiment, the two lifting motors 185 start synchronously, drive the lead screw 186 to rotate, and then drive the lead screw to rise or fall relative to the lead screw seat 187, thereby driving the horizontal steel beam 181 and the robot arm 20 on the horizontal steel beam 181 to move up and down, ensuring the movement of the honeycomb core workpiece 30 in the Y-axis direction.

[0020] In this embodiment, as Figure 1-2 As shown, the two ground rail housings 101 are fixed together at one of their free ends by a ground rail connecting rod 50, which connects the two rails and ensures that the distance between the ground rail housings 101 is fixed and that they remain parallel.

[0021] Other undescribed structures are described in Example 1.

[0022] According to the above embodiment of the present invention, the mobile frame of the honeycomb core impregnation robot, through the setting of the linear ground rail 10, drives the honeycomb core workpiece 30 to move in both directions of the XY axis after it is grasped by the robot 20, thereby ensuring the automated and mechanized impregnation operation of the honeycomb core workpiece 30, reducing manual operation, and the impregnation speed and time can be arbitrarily set under mechanized operation to meet different process requirements.

[0023] Finally, it should be noted that the above-described embodiments are merely specific implementations of this utility model, used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model, and not to limit it.
