Detailed Implementation

[0035] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0036] Please see Figure 1-7 This utility model provides a technical solution: a clamping and flipping feeding device, including a flipping component 100 and a clamping component 200 disposed on the flipping component 100. The clamping component 200 includes a clamping fixing plate 210 disposed on the flipping component 100. Two symmetrical grippers 230 are slidably mounted on the clamping fixing plate 210. The two symmetrical grippers 230 can clamp the boxed or barreled materials to be flipped and fed. Through the cooperation of the flipping component 100 and the clamping component 200, the automatic clamping and flipping function in the material handling process is realized, which solves the problems of high labor intensity and low efficiency in traditional manual handling.

[0037] A cylinder 213 is provided on the surface of the clamping plate 210 corresponding to the position of each gripper 230. The output end of the cylinder 213 is provided with an L-shaped connector 214, which is fixedly connected to the gripper 230. When the cylinder 213 is started, its output end pushes the L-shaped connector 214 to move linearly. Since the L-shaped connector 214 is fixedly connected to the gripper 230, it will drive the gripper 230 to slide on the clamping plate 210. By controlling the extension and retraction of the two cylinders 213, the two grippers 230 can be moved closer or further apart, thereby realizing the clamping operation of materials of different sizes. Moreover, the clamping force can be flexibly adjusted according to actual needs, which solves the problem of poor adaptability caused by the non-adjustable clamping force of traditional devices.

[0038] The clamping fixing plate 210 has a clamping gear set 220 on its surface to assist the relative movement of the two grippers 230. The clamping gear set 220 includes a clamping gear 221 and two opposing clamping racks 222. The clamping gear 221 is rotatably mounted at the center of the surface of the clamping fixing plate 210 via a central shaft 215. Both clamping racks 222 mesh with the clamping gear 221. One of the two clamping racks 222 is fixedly connected to one of the grippers 230, and the other of the two clamping racks 222 is fixedly connected to the other gripper 230. When one of the grippers... When the claw 230 moves under the drive of the cylinder 213 (during operation, the two cylinders 213 work synchronously), it will drive the clamping rack 222 connected to it to move. Since the clamping rack 222 meshes with the clamping gear 221, it will drive the clamping gear 221 to rotate. The clamping gear 221 then meshes with another clamping rack 222, thereby driving the other clamping rack 222 to move. Finally, the other claw 230 moves synchronously. This transmission method ensures that the two claws 230 move synchronously, so that the material is always kept in a stable clamping state during the flipping process.

[0039] Among them, the clamping plate 210 has a clamping wheel 223 rotatably installed on the surface of the clamping plate 210 at the position corresponding to the two clamping racks 222. The clamping wheel 223 is used to clamp and guide the clamping racks 222, which can prevent the clamping racks 222 from jumping or deviating during the movement, and ensure that the clamping racks 222 and the clamping gears 221 always maintain a good meshing state.

[0040] The clamping plate 210 has two parallel slide rails 211 on its surface from top to bottom. Each slide rail 211 has two sliders 212 corresponding to the gripper 230. The gripper 230 is slidably mounted on the surface of the clamping plate 210 through the cooperation of the sliders 212 and the slide rails 211. The cooperation between the slide rails 211 and the sliders 212 provides a stable and precise guide for the sliding of the gripper 230, so that the gripper 230 can move smoothly along the predetermined trajectory under the drive of the cylinder 213, further improving the accuracy and reliability of the clamping operation.

[0041] The clamping plate 210 has a tooth guard plate 240 on its surface corresponding to the position of the clamping gear 221. The tooth guard plate 240 can effectively protect the clamping gear 221 and prevent it from being disturbed or collided with external debris during operation, thereby ensuring the normal operation and transmission accuracy of the clamping gear 221 and extending the service life of the equipment.

[0042] Furthermore, the tooth guard 240 does not affect the relative movement of the two grippers 230.

[0043] The tilting assembly 100 includes two symmetrical main bearing housing mounting plates 101 and a secondary bearing housing mounting plate 102. A rotating crossbeam 103 is rotatably mounted between the main bearing housing mounting plates 101 and the secondary bearing housing mounting plates 102. A clamping assembly 200 is mounted on the rotating crossbeam 103. A main bearing housing 104 is provided on the main bearing housing mounting plate 101, and a tilting main shaft 105 is rotatably mounted at the axis of the main bearing housing 104. A secondary bearing housing 106 is provided on the secondary bearing housing mounting plate 102, and a tilting secondary shaft 107 is rotatably mounted at the axis of the secondary bearing housing 106. One end of the rotating crossbeam 103 is connected to the tilting main shaft 105, and the other end of the rotating crossbeam 103 is connected to the tilting secondary shaft 107. A reducer mounting plate is provided on the outer side of the main bearing housing mounting plate 101, and a gearbox 109 is provided on the reducer mounting plate. The servo motor 108 is connected to the end of the rotating main shaft 105 via a gearbox 109. The rotating beam 103 can rotate with the rotating main shaft 105 and the rotating secondary shaft 107 as supports. In actual operation, when the servo motor 108 drives the rotating main shaft 105 to rotate via the gearbox 109, the rotating main shaft 105 drives one end of the rotating beam 103 to rotate. Since the other end of the rotating beam 103 is connected to the rotating secondary shaft 107 and the rotating secondary shaft 107 rotates within the secondary bearing seat 106, the overall rotation of the rotating beam 103 is achieved. This, in turn, drives the clamping assembly 200 installed on the rotating beam 103 and the clamped material to rotate, which can meet the material rotation requirements at different angles and provides a strong guarantee for subsequent accurate feeding.

[0044] An angle sensor 110 is provided at the end of the gearbox 109 corresponding to the position of the rotating spindle 105. The angle sensor 110 is used to detect the rotation angle of the rotating spindle 105. The angle sensor 110 can transmit the rotation angle information of the rotating spindle 105 in real time and feed it back to the external controller. The controller is electrically connected to the angle sensor 110, the servo motor 108 and the cylinder 213 respectively. The controller precisely controls the operation of the servo motor 108 according to the preset feeding angle requirements, thereby realizing precise control of the material rotation angle.

[0045] The main bearing housing mounting plate 101 and the auxiliary bearing housing mounting plate 102 are fixedly installed on the robotic arm for material handling and feeding. The robotic arm serves as the support and moving carrier of the entire device and can move the clamping and flipping feeding device to a designated position according to the needs of the production line, and cooperate with the clamping component 200 and the flipping component 100 to complete the precise handling and feeding operation of materials.

[0046] Working principle: In use, the mechanical arm first moves the clamping and flipping feeding device to the position of the material to be transported. Then, the cylinder 213 is started. The output end of the cylinder 213 pushes the L-shaped connector 214, which in turn drives the two symmetrical grippers 230 to slide relative to each other on the slide rail 211. The distance between the two grippers 230 is adjusted according to the size of the material until the material is stably clamped. During the movement of the grippers 230, the clamping gear set 220 ensures that the two grippers 230 move synchronously, so that the material is always kept in a stable clamping state.

[0047] After clamping the material, the servo motor 108 is started. The servo motor 108 drives the rotating spindle 105 to rotate through the reduction gearbox 109, thereby realizing the overall rotation of the rotating beam 103. This, in turn, drives the clamping assembly 200 and the clamped material to rotate. During the rotation process, the angle sensor 110 detects the rotation angle of the rotating spindle 105 in real time and feeds the information back to the external controller. The controller precisely controls the operation of the servo motor 108 according to the preset feeding angle requirements to ensure that the material is rotated to the specified angle. Finally, the robotic arm moves the rotated material to the feeding position to complete the precise feeding operation. The whole process realizes the automatic clamping and rotating functions in the material handling process, which greatly reduces the intensity of manual labor and improves work efficiency.
