Referring to fig. 1 and 2, a material supporting mechanism 1 is provided. The material carrying mechanism 1 is used for fixing a material (not shown), and includes a base 11, a cover 12, a sliding member 13, and an elastic member 14. The base 11 is used for bearing materials. The cover plate 12 is used for covering the material, and the cover plate 12 forms a through hole 121. The sliding member 13 is slidably connected to the base 11, and includes an abutting portion 131 and a locking portion 132 connected to each other, and the locking portion 132 is configured to pass through the through hole 121 of the cover 12. The elastic element 14 is abutted between the base 11 and the abutting portion 131, and is used for elastically driving the sliding element 13 to slide so that the fastening portion 132 fastens the edge of the through hole 121, and further the cover plate 12 is fixed on the base 11, and the material is fixed between the base 11 and the cover plate 12. In this embodiment, for convenience of understanding, the material is a frame-shaped workpiece, and when the material is placed between the base 11 and the cover 12, the upper and lower surfaces of the material are covered, and the outer side surface is exposed, so as to facilitate the machining processes such as cutting, grinding or polishing on the outer surface, but not limited thereto.
Specifically, the base 11 forms an accommodating cavity 111 and an accommodating groove 112. The receiving cavity 111 includes a first sidewall 113 and a second sidewall 114 opposite to the first sidewall. The receiving cavity 111 is used for receiving the sliding member 13 and the elastic member 14 between the first side wall 113 and the second side wall 114. The accommodating groove 112 is used for accommodating and positioning part materials and forms opening and closing fit with the cover plate 12. In one embodiment, the number of the receiving grooves 112 is two, and the two receiving grooves 112 are symmetrically disposed on two sides of the receiving cavity 111.
The sliding member 13 is connected to the base 11 and slidably disposed in the accommodating cavity 111. In one embodiment, the base 11 includes a guide bar 115 fixedly connected between the first side wall 113 and the second side wall 114, and the sliding member 13 is slidably sleeved on the guide bar 115. The locking portion 132 extends toward the first sidewall 113 and is used for locking with an edge of the through hole 121 located on one side of the first sidewall 113. The sliding member 13 forms a receiving hole 133, and the receiving hole 133 is located between the stopping portion 131 and the fastening portion 132 and is used for partially receiving the unlocking mechanism 2 (refer to fig. 5).
The elastic element 14 abuts between the first sidewall 113 and the abutting portion 131, and the fastening portion 132 abuts against the edge of the through hole 121 away from the elastic element 14. When the unlocking mechanism 2 is placed in the receiving hole 133, the stopping portion 131 drives the elastic element 14 to compress toward the second sidewall 114, so that the sliding element 13 slides along the guiding rod 115 toward the second sidewall 114, and the locking portion 132 is separated from the edge of the through hole 121 to unlock the cover 12 and the base 11.
In one embodiment, the number of the sliding member 13, the guide bar 115, and the elastic member 14 is two. The two locking portions 132 of the two sliding parts 13 extend toward the first side wall 113 and the second side wall 114, and the two elastic parts 14 correspondingly support the second side wall 114 and the first side wall 113. The two elastic members 14 respectively drive the two sliding members 13 to slide in different directions, so that the two fastening portions 132 are respectively fastened to different edges of the through hole 121. When the two fastening portions 132 of the two sliding members 13 are fastened to the cover plate 12, the two accommodating holes 133 are communicated and partially staggered; referring to fig. 3, when the two locking portions 132 on the two sliding members 13 are separated from the edge of the through hole 121, the two accommodating holes 133 are opposite to each other to form a rectangular hole. The material loading mechanism 1 and the loading and unloading device 10 make the fastening portion 132 fastened or separated from the cover plate 12 by the cooperation of the sliding member 13 and the elastic member 14 connected to the base 11 to fix or unlock the cover plate 12, and the noise generated in the process of taking and placing the material is low and the failure rate is low.
Referring to fig. 4, the present application further provides a loading and unloading apparatus 10. The loading and unloading device 10 comprises the material carrying mechanism 1, the unlocking mechanism 2 and the pick-and-place mechanism 3. The unlocking mechanism 2 is used for driving the sliding part 13 to move towards the elastic part 14 so as to enable the buckling part 132 to be separated from the edge of the through hole 121, and further enable the cover plate 12 to be separated from the base 11. The pick-and-place mechanism 3 is used for taking the cover plate 12 off the base 11 when the cover plate 12 is separated from the base 11 to pick out the material (e.g. processed material) on the base 11, and placing the cover plate 12 on the base 11 when the material (e.g. material to be processed) is placed on the base 11 to make the buckling part 132 buckle at the edge of the through hole 121 when the unlocking mechanism is separated from the sliding part 13, so as to fix the material between the cover plate 12 and the base 11 to transfer the material.
Referring to fig. 5, in an embodiment, the unlocking mechanism 2 includes a first lifting driving member 21 and a latch 22 fixedly connected to the first lifting driving member 21. Plug 22 is generally a cone-shaped body having a wedge-shaped end. When the driving pin 22 penetrates the sliding member 13 and moves toward the base 11, the inclined surface of the first lifting driving member 21 abuts against the stopping portion 131 to make the sliding member 13 slide toward the elastic member 14, so that the locking portion 132 is separated from the edge of the through hole 121. In one embodiment, the end of the plug 22 includes two opposite inclined surfaces, and the two inclined surfaces are used for interfering with the two stoppers 131 on the two sliding members 13 to move the two sliding members 13 back to back, so that the two locking portions 132 are separated from different edges of the through hole 121.
The pick and place mechanism 3 includes a second lifting driving member 31 and a suction assembly 32 fixedly connected to the second lifting driving member 31. The suction assembly 32 is used for sucking the cover plate 12 and releasing the cover plate 12. When the locking part 132 is unlocked from the cover 12, the second lifting driving member 31 drives the suction assembly 32 to move away from the base 11 so that the suction assembly 32 sucks the cover 12, and the cover 12 is removed from the base 11 for taking and placing the material. The second lifting driving member 31 also drives the absorption assembly 32 to move close to the base 11 to place the cover plate 12 on the base 11 when the material is placed on the base 11. The suction assembly 32 releases the cover 12 from the base 11 when moved onto the cover 12 adjacent the base 11.
In one embodiment, the suction assembly 32 includes a fixing plate 321 and a plurality of suction members 322 fixedly connected to the fixing plate 321. The fixing plate 321 is formed with a through hole 323, and the latch 22 is partially disposed in the through hole 323 and can move up and down in the through hole 323 to be inserted into or removed from the receiving hole 133 by the first elevation driving member 21. The suction members 322 are suction cups, and the suction members 322 are fixed to a side facing the base 11 through the fixing plate 321 to suck and release the cover 12.
The material loading mechanism 1 and the loading and unloading device 10 make the fastening portion 132 fastened or separated from the cover plate 12 by the cooperation of the sliding member 13 and the elastic member 14 connected to the base 11 to fix or unlock the cover plate 12, and the noise is low and the failure rate is low in the process of taking and placing the material correspondingly.
