DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an apparatus for automatically removing a work from a plating jig.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a plating jig 1 as shown in FIG. 8 has been used for plating a small work. This plating jig 1 has a large number of claws 3 arranged on a rib 2. The work W is formed with the claws 3 as shown in FIG.
Is held by the resilience of the claw 3 at the tip end.

The work of removing the work W from the plating jig 1 has been performed almost manually.
However, this method is not efficient. There is also a device for mechanically removing the work W from each of the claws 3. However, it is necessary to manufacture a dedicated machine for each type of jig, and there is a disadvantage that the structure is complicated and expensive, and the claw 3 is expensive. There was also a risk of damaging the.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned conventional problems and to provide an apparatus for automatically removing a workpiece from a plating jig which has a simple structure and can easily remove the workpiece from a nail. It was completed.

[0005]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems. According to the present invention, a support for supporting a plating jig having a large number of claws aligned on a rib is provided on an upper portion of a frame. On both sides of the plating jig supported by this support, a scraping surface inclined with respect to the rib was provided for sequentially removing the workpiece from each claw from one end of the plating jig toward the other end. A work removal member is provided.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below. 1 to 3 show the apparatus of the present invention. Reference numeral 4 denotes a frame, and reference numerals 5 and 5 denote supports for plating jigs provided on both sides of an upper portion of the frame 4. The plating jig 1 is horizontally supported between these supports 5,5. As described above, the plating jig 1 has a large number of claws 3 arranged on the ribs 2.

Reference numerals 6 and 6 denote a pair of workpiece removing members provided on both sides of the plating jig 1 supported by the supports 5 and 5, respectively. In this example, the workpiece removing member 6 is formed by cutting out a part of a rotating cylinder made of a resin such as vinyl chloride, for example, to form an inclined scraping surface 7. These workpiece removing members 6 and 6 are rotated in opposite directions by a motor 8 so that the central portion faces downward. When the work removing members 6, 6 are rotated, both scraping surfaces 7 come into contact simultaneously from both sides of the same claw 3, and the work W held by the claw 3 is simultaneously scraped from both sides.

Reference numeral 9 denotes a chute provided inside the frame 4. The chute 9 is provided below the plating jig 1, and can discharge the work W scraped off from the plating jig 1 to the side of the frame 4.

[0009] The use of the device thus constructed is as follows. First, as shown in FIG. 3, in a state where the scraping surfaces 7, 7 of the workpiece removing members 6, 6 are rotated to a position away from the plating jig 1, the support members 5, 5 on the upper part of the frame 4 are rotated. Then, the plating jig 1 is horizontally supported.
This state is shown in FIG.

Next, when the workpiece removing members 6, 6 are rotated inward from the state shown in FIG. 3 as shown in FIG. 4, the inclined scraping surfaces 7, 7 of the workpiece removing members 6, 6 are brought into contact with the plating jig 1. From one end to the other end, it sequentially contacts both sides of the nail 3,
The work W is scraped down from the nail 3. This state is shown in FIG.
FIG. 7 is an enlarged view of FIG.

As described above, the workpiece W is sequentially removed from the claw 3 and falls onto the chute 9 below as the workpiece removing members 6 and 6 rotate. At this time, the work W does not drop at the same time, but sequentially from one end of the plating jig 1.
Since the pieces fall down one by one, they can be easily taken out by the chute 9. When the work W is removed from the claw 3 on one side of the plating jig 1 in this manner, the work W may be removed from the claw 3 on the opposite side by inverting the jig 1 for plating.

In the above-described example, the work removing member 6 in which a part of the rotary cylinder is cut off at an angle is used. However, the rotary cylinder is not necessarily provided as long as it has a scraping surface 7 inclined with respect to the rib 2. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and for example, two flat plates having lower inclined surfaces may be moved up and down.

As shown in FIG. 10, a belt conveyor 10 may be provided in place of the chute 9 so that the workpiece W dropped from the plating jig 1 can be taken out by the conveyor 10. If the conveyor 10 is used, the workpieces W can be taken out without colliding with each other.

[0014]

As described above, the automatic workpiece removing device of the present invention has a simple structure, can remove all the workpieces in a short time, does not have the possibility of damaging the claws, and sequentially removes the workpieces one by one. Since it can be removed individually, the load on the ribs is small and there is no vibration of the jig, the workpieces do not collide with each other and do not dent, the handling in the post-process is easy, regardless of the type of workpiece It has many advantages, such as being removable.
