Definitions

  • the invention relates to a swivel unit with a swivel part that can be swiveled from a first end of rotation position into a second end of rotation position and with a drive for the swivel part provided in a housing.
  • Such swivel units are already known from the prior art in a variety of ways. They are used in particular for the positioning of components or as swivel joints for handling devices.
  • Gripping or holding devices can be arranged on the pivoting part, with which components can be displaced from a first position, from the first rotational end position of the pivoting part, to a second position, into the second rotational end position of the pivoting part. In the turning end positions, the components can then either be processed or moved.
  • EP 2 495 449 A1 of the JP 2004 036652 A and the FR 1 351 795 A various swivel units are known.
  • a swivel unit according to the preamble of claim 1 is from EP 2 495 449 A1 known.
  • the present invention is therefore based on the object of providing a swivel unit which achieves this object.
  • a swivel unit having the features of claim 1 is proposed for this purpose.
  • a pivot unit 10 is shown with a pivot part 12 pivotable between a first rotational position and a second rotational position and with a housing 14.
  • a drive 16 with which the pivoting part 12 can be pivoted is accommodated in the housing 14.
  • bores 18 and recesses 20 are provided, on which clamping devices, support elements or other devices for clamping, carrying or handling components can be arranged.
  • the swivel unit 10 has a central passage 22, which is shown in particular in FIG Figure 4 and 6th can be clearly seen. Connection cables or hoses, for example, can be passed through the central duct, sensor systems can be attached in it or components can be passed through it.
  • pivot bearings 24 in the form of ball bearings are arranged between the pivot part 12 and the housing 14. As a result, the pivot part 12 is rotatably mounted on the housing 14.
  • a pinion 28 is provided on the section of the pivoting part 12 located inside the housing 14. As shown in the cut Figure 7 It becomes clear that this pinion 28 interacts with the drive 16.
  • the drive 16 comprises a drive piston 30 which can be acted upon on both sides and which comprises a toothed rack section 32 cooperating with the pinion 28 on the side facing the pinion 28.
  • the drive piston 30 delimits two pressure chambers 34 in the longitudinal direction, which can be alternately acted upon with compressed air via compressed air inlets 36; the piston 30 can thereby be moved in the axial direction.
  • About the rack section 32, the pinion 28 and thus the pivoting part 12 is in Figure 4 clearly visible central longitudinal axis 38 pivoted.
  • the pivoting part 12 has stop sections 39, 40 which, in particular, are shown in FIG Figure 8 clearly too recognize are.
  • the stop sections 39, 40 are provided on a segment of a circle 42 of the pivoting part 12, which includes a 90 ° angle.
  • the contact sections 39, 40 cooperate with counter-stops 44, 46 on the housing side in the end of rotation position.
  • the counterstops 44, 46 are formed by adjusting screws 48 screwed into the housing 14, which is also from Figure 8 becomes clear. Depending on the screw-in depth of the adjusting screws 48, the respective end position of the pivoting part 12 can be changed.
  • a holding element 50 which can be displaced transversely to the direction of rotation of the pivoting part 12 is provided.
  • the longitudinal axis 52 of the holding element 50 runs parallel to the axis of rotation 38 of the pivoting part 12 Figures 5 and 6 becomes clear, the holding element 50 is accommodated in the housing 14.
  • the housing 14 provides a holding element receptacle 54 which is closed on its underside with a cover 56.
  • the holding element 50 provides a contact section 58 which is provided on the side facing the pivoting part 12 and is conical.
  • the holding element 50 can be moved from a retracted release position into an extended, in Figures 5 and 6 Shown holding position are shifted.
  • the contact section 58 on the holding element side engages in a mating contact section 60 on the pivoting part side Figures 5 and 6 becomes clear, the contact portion 58 is conical or frustoconical.
  • the mating contact section 60 is designed as a recess which has a contour complementary to the contact section.
  • the pivoting part 12 has two counter-contact sections 60 designed as conical recesses, namely one in each of the two end positions. When the respective end position is reached, the contact section 58 of the holding element 50 can dip into the respective mating contact section 60.
  • the holding element 50 as such is advantageously arranged in a prestressed manner towards the pivot part 12 by means of a helical spring 62.
  • the holding element 50 also delimits a pressure chamber 64 that can be acted upon by compressed air. When the pressure chamber 64 is acted upon, the holding element 50 is moved into the release position against the spring force of the helical spring 62. When the pressure chamber 64 is depressurized, however, the holding element 50 moves into the holding position.
  • the holding element 50 also delimits a second pressure chamber 66, which can be actively acted upon with compressed air via a compressed air connection, so that the holding element 50 can also be moved into the holding position by applying pressure to this pressure chamber 66.
  • the holding element 50 is moved from the holding position into the release position by applying pressure to the pressure chamber 64.
  • the drive 16 is actuated by applying pressure to the corresponding pressure chamber 34 and the resulting movement of the piston 30. Due to the actuation of the drive 16, the pivoting part 12 is pivoted via the pinion 28 into the other rotational end position.
  • the pressure chamber 64 of the holding element 50 is depressurized or the pressure chamber 66 is pressurized, so that the holding element 50 is moved from the release position into the holding position.
  • the contact section 58 dips into the mating contact section 60. Because of the conical design of contact section 58 and counter-contact section 60, the pivoting part is then pushed into the corresponding end-of-rotation position.
