Machining Board Loading Unloading Device Vertical Storage
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional loading and unloading devices for machining machines require complex movements and coordination, leading to reduced throughput and increased time, as they often need to move boards both horizontally and vertically over long paths, complicating the conveyance process and limiting simultaneous loading and unloading of multiple changing tables.
Innovation Solution
The device and method involve a storage system with separate loading and unloading places for changing tables, where the unloading place is positioned above the second storage place, allowing for independent parallel processing and simplifying the unloading process by enabling one-dimensional movement of machined boards, thus reducing the complexity and time required for loading and unloading.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Device complexity
If the unloading place is positioned at the same level as the storage system, then the conveyance path is simplified, but the space required for the unloading device increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent positions the unloading place vertically above the second storage place, transitioning from a horizontal arrangement to a vertical one. This dimensional change allows the unloading device to operate in a compact vertical space rather than requiring extensive horizontal area, resolving the contradiction between simplified conveyance and reduced space requirements
2Productivity
If multiple changing tables are processed simultaneously, then the conveyance capacity increases, but the coordination complexity and time required increase
Solution Approach 1:
The patent divides the processing of multiple changing tables into independent parallel operations. The first changing table can be loaded while the second changing table is unloaded, and these operations can occur simultaneously without complex coordination. This segmentation of operations into independent parallel tasks increases conveyance capacity while minimizing additional time requirements
3Area of stationary object
If the unloading place is positioned above the second storage place, then the space required is reduced, but the movement path becomes more complex
Solution Approach 1:
By positioning the unloading place vertically above the second storage place, the patent utilizes the vertical dimension to reduce horizontal space requirements. The unloading device can be compactly arranged in the vertical space above the storage place, and boards can be conveyed vertically and then horizontally in a straightforward sequence, which does not significantly increase overall device complexity while achieving space efficiency

AI summary
A method for loading and unloading a machining machine for machining boards that includes for loading the machining machine, the changing table is loaded with a board to be machined, whereby the board is separated from the first storage place and is deposited on a changing table. The changing table is conveyed together with the board to the machining machine. For unloading the machining machine, the changing table is conveyed together with a machined board to the second storage place and is then unloaded, wherein the machined board is separated from the changing table and deposited on the second storage place, wherein the unloading of the changing table includes conveying the changing table and the machined board to an unloading place in an area above the second storage place and the machined board is separated from the changing table at the unloading place.
