To do. At this time, the driven gear 39 that meshes with the driving gear 38 that rotates together with the second driven pulley 36 rotates in the different direction at the same rotational speed as the driving gear 38. Thereby, the 1st turning shaft part 12 and the 2nd turning shaft part 22 rotate in the different direction at the same rotational speed, synchronizing, the 1st arm 10 fixed to the other end of the 1st turning shaft part 12, The second arm 20 fixed to the other end of the second turning shaft portion 22 rotates at the same speed in different directions C. Since the first arm 10 is disposed on the axially outer side (right outer side in FIG. 1) than the second arm 20, it can be rotated in different directions without interference.

  A first holding part 11 that holds a ring-shaped workpiece W such as a bearing ring of a rolling bearing is disposed at the tip of the first arm 10. The first holding portion 11 has an outer diameter substantially the same as the inner diameter of the ring-shaped workpiece W, and includes a holding pin 14 that can move in the direction perpendicular to the paper surface in FIG. The work W is moved up and down and the work W is held or separated. The first holding unit 11 moves between the machining position WP and the supply / discharge position TP along the first track 13 by turning the first arm 10 about the turning axis O.

  A second holding portion 21 that holds the ring-shaped workpiece W is disposed at the tip of the second arm 20. The second holding portion 21 moves in the axial direction E (see FIG. 1) of the rotary shaft 25 with respect to the rotary base 24 having the rotary shaft 25, and protrudes and retracts into the inner diameter of the ring-shaped workpiece W. A holding pin 26 for holding or releasing the workpiece W is provided. The rotation shaft 25 of the turntable 24 is rotatably supported at the tip of the second arm 20, and the turntable 24 can turn in the direction D around the rotation shaft 25 with respect to the second arm 20. . In the present embodiment, the holding pins 14 and 26 have holding surfaces having an outer diameter slightly smaller than the inner diameter of the workpiece W so that the holding pins 14 and 26 and the workpiece W do not come into contact with each other during processing. For this reason, at the time of conveyance, the workpiece | work W is hold | maintained by contact | abutting with these holding pins 14 and 26 by gravity or centrifugal force.

  The second arm 20 includes a driven pulley 61 fixed to the rotating shaft 25 of the turntable 24, a driving pulley 62 fixed to the first turning shaft portion 12 located in the second arm 20, and the driven pulley 61 and the driving pulley 61. Other pulleys including a belt 63 wound around a pulley 62 and an idler pulley 65 that is rotatably arranged around an intermediate shaft 64 attached to an intermediate portion of the second arm 20 and applies tension to the belt 63. The mechanism 60 is provided, and the rotation of the first turning shaft portion 12 is transmitted to the turntable 24 via the driving pulley 28, the belt 29, the driven pulley 27, and the rotating shaft 25, and the second holding portion 21 is rotated around the rotating shaft. Rotate around 25.

  The pulley ratio PR of the driving pulley 28 attached to the first turning shaft portion 12 and the driven pulley 27 attached to the rotating shaft 25 of the second holding portion 21 is the turning angle of the first and second arms 10 and 20 (that is, When the angle between the processing position WP and the supply / discharge position TP in the first track is α °, the driving pulley diameter / the driven pulley diameter = 2 × α / 360 is set. Thereby, the first arm 10 and the second arm 20 are rotated in different directions by the drive motor 50, and the first holding unit 11 and the second holding unit 21 are moved from one of the processing position WP and the supply / discharge position TP to the other. When moving from the other side to the other side, the second holding portion 21 rotates 360 °. In the present embodiment, the turning angle α is set to 100 °.

  That is, when the first arm 10 turns and the first holding unit 11 moves along the first track 13 from one of the processing position WP and the supply / discharge position TP to the other and from the other to the second holding unit 21. Is rotated 360 ° around the rotation axis 25 while turning by the second arm 20, and moves along the second track 23 from one of the machining position WP and the supply / discharge position TP, or from one to the other. When the second holding unit 21 moves while rotating 360 degrees about the rotation axis 25, the first holding unit 11 and the second holding unit 21 can move on the same plane without interfering with each other. In FIG. 1, the workpiece W indicated by the solid line held by the second arm 20 is in the machining position WP or the supply / discharge position TP, and the workpiece W indicated by the two-dot chain line is 2 shows the position in a state where the holding unit 21 is rotated 180 °.

  The transport mechanism 40 is a gantry loader, for example, which has a chuck portion 41 and can move in a horizontal direction A and a vertical direction B between an unillustrated pre-process and post-process apparatus and a supply / discharge position TP. The chuck portion 41 has a pair of gripping arms 42 and 43 that are movable in a direction to approach or separate from each other by a drive device (not shown) such as a cylinder device, and the outer periphery of the workpiece W by the gripping arms 42 and 43. Hold the surface and hold it. And the unprocessed workpiece | work W is received from the apparatus of a front process, and it supplies to the supply / discharge position TP. Further, the processed workpiece W is received at the supply / discharge position TP, and is carried out to an apparatus in a subsequent process.

  The operation of this embodiment will be described. For convenience of explanation, it is assumed that the second holding part 21 is located at the supply / discharge position TP and the first holding part 11 is located at the machining position WP.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the chuck portion 41 that holds the unprocessed workpiece W with the pair of gripping arms 42 and 43 in the apparatus in the previous process moves in the horizontal direction A and further descends in the vertical direction B. Then, the workpiece W is conveyed to the supply / discharge position TP. Here, the holding pin 26 of the second holding unit 21 enters the inner diameter of the ring-shaped workpiece W to hold the unprocessed workpiece W, and the unprocessed workpiece W is delivered to the second holding unit 21. While the unprocessed ring-shaped workpiece W is transferred from the chuck portion 41 to the second holding portion 21, the workpiece W is processed at the processing position WP. The workpiece W is transferred between the chuck portion 41 and the second holding portion 21 by moving the workpiece W in the direction approaching or separating from the holding pin 26 by the chuck portion 41 instead of moving the holding pin 26 in the axial direction. The workpiece W may be delivered between the chuck portion 41 and the first holding portion 11 in the same manner.

  When the machining at the machining position WP is completed, the drive motor 50 starts to rotate, and the first driven pulley 34 and the second driven pulley 36 to which the rotation is transmitted from the drive pulley 33 via the belt 37 are at the same rotational speed. Rotate in the same direction. The driven gear 39 that meshes with the driving gear 38 that rotates together with the second driven pulley 36 rotates in different directions at the same rotational speed. Thereby, the 1st turning shaft part 12 and the 2nd turning shaft part 22, ie, the 1st arm 10 and the 2nd arm 20, turn in the different direction C at the same rotational speed, synchronizing with the turning axis O as a center.

  As a result, as shown in FIG. 3, the first holding unit 11 moves on the first track 13 from the machining position WP to the supply / discharge position TP, and conveys the held workpiece W to the supply / discharge position TP. To do. At the same time, the second holding unit 21 moves on the second track 23 from the supply / discharge position TP to the machining position WP, and transports the held unprocessed workpiece W to the machining position WP.

  At this time, relative rotation (2 × α °) between the first turning shaft portion 12 and the second turning shaft portion 22 causes the drive pulley 28, the belt 29, and the driven pulley 27 to move on the rotation shaft 25 of the second holding portion 21. Therefore, the second holding part 21 rotates about the rotation axis O and simultaneously rotates about the rotation axis 25 in the direction of arrow D. Here, since the driving pulley diameter / driven pulley diameter is set to 2 × α / 360, the second holding portion 21 is moved by the turning angle α ° from the supply / discharge position TP to the machining position WP. The holding part 21 rotates 360 ° around the rotation shaft 25.

  The first holding part 11 and the second holding part 21 pass each other at an intermediate position (α / 2 °) of the turning angle α ° of the first and second arms 10 and 20. At this time, since the second holding portion 21 is rotated in the direction of the arrow D by 180 °, the position 23a on the second track 23 at the intermediate position is the farthest from the position 13a on the first track 13. . Accordingly, the unprocessed ring-shaped workpiece W held by the second holding unit 21 and the processed workpiece W held by the first holding unit 11 are different in the same plane without interfering with each other. Move to the same time and pass each other.

  The unprocessed ring-shaped workpiece W transferred to the processing position WP by the second holding unit 21 is processed by a processing device (not shown). On the other hand, the processed workpiece W transported to the supply / discharge position TP by the first holding unit 11 is gripped by the pair of gripping arms 42 and 43 of the chuck unit 41 and transported in the vertical and horizontal directions by the transport mechanism 40. It is delivered to the post-process equipment. Next, the chuck unit 41 receives a new unprocessed ring-shaped workpiece W from the apparatus of the previous process, conveys it to the supply / discharge position TP, and holds it on the first holding unit 11 waiting at the supply / discharge position TP.

  When the processing by the processing apparatus is completed, after the processed workpiece W is held by the second holding unit 21, the drive motor 50 rotates in the opposite direction to the previous position, and the first arm 10 is moved from the supply / discharge position TP to the processing position. Further, the second arm 20 is rotated from the processing position WP to the supply / discharge position TP. Thereby, the unprocessed workpiece W held by the first holding unit 11 is moved from the supply / discharge position TP to the machining position WP, and the processed workpiece W held by the second holding unit 21 is moved from the machining position WP to the supply / discharge position TP. It is conveyed to. Also at this time, the second holding unit 21 moves on the second track 23 while rotating 360 ° about the rotation axis 25 (in the direction of arrow F), so that the two workpieces W can be turned without interfering with each other. Pass at an intermediate position of α ° (α / 2 °).

  Thereafter, similarly, the first holding part 11 and the second holding part 21 are alternately turned from one of the supply / discharge position TP and the processing position WP to the other, and from the other to the other, and the unprocessed or processed work W. Are held one by one and forcibly transported.

A first arm 10 that can be swiveled to move the first holding unit 11 and a second holding unit 21 that holds the workpiece W, and the second holding unit 21 passes through the machining position WP and the supply / discharge position TP. The first arm 10 and the second arm 10 and 20 are rotated in the directions different from each other around the turning axis O by the second arm 20 that can turn around the turning axis O while moving the two tracks 23 and the single drive motor 50. The first holding unit 11 moves from one of the processing position WP and the supply / discharge position TP to the other, and the second holding unit 21 prevents interference with the first holding unit 11. While working position WP and feed Since moving from the other position TP to one, the supply-discharge position TP of the workpiece W and one place, supplies the workpiece W from the same place, and may be discharged. Thereby, it is not necessary to separately provide a carry-in mechanism and a carry-out mechanism, and the apparatus can be reduced in size.

At the same time as moving from one of the supply / discharge positions TP to the other, the second holding part 21 rotates from the other one of the machining position WP and the supply / discharge position TP while preventing interference with the first holding part 11. Since it has moved, the interference between the first holding part 11 and the second holding part 21 is reliably prevented, and the workpiece W is moved from one of the machining position WP and the supply / discharge position TP to the other, and from the other to the other. It can be transported in the same plane and in synchronization. In addition, this makes it possible to efficiently transport the workpiece W by supplying and discharging the workpiece W in a short time.
