FIG. 7 is a flowchart showing a process performed by the control unit 80 to take out the four molded products 90 from the mold 210 and send them out to the molded product receiving unit 400 by the molded product extraction unit 20. FIG. 8 to FIG. 12 are diagrams for explaining the operation from when the mold molded product take-out unit 20 takes out the four mold molded products 90 from the mold 210 to when they are sent out to the mold molded product receiving unit 400. .

First, the control unit 80 determines whether or not the molding by the molding machine 200 is completed based on a control signal output from a control unit (not shown) of the molding machine 200 (step S101).
When it is determined that the mold forming by the molding machine 200 is not completed (step S101: No), the control unit 80 repeats the determination process of step S101.

  On the other hand, when the control unit 80 determines that the mold forming by the molding machine 200 is completed (step S101: Yes), the control unit 80 moves the mold molded product extraction unit 20 to the suction position of the mold molded product 90 (step S102). ). Here, the control unit 80 uses the three-axis movement mechanism unit 11 to position the mold product take-out unit 20 between the molds 210 opened after the mold molding is completed, and the four cylindrical housing units 30. Each of the inlet openings 30a moves to a position facing the four mold products 90 accommodated in the movable mold 210b.

Thereafter, the control unit 80 starts suction of the four mold molded products 90 and clamps the connecting unit 91 (step S103).
Here, the control part 80 will start the suction by the two suction parts 40, if the metal mold product extraction part 20 is moved to the suction position. Then, the molding machine 200 cuts the gate 91c of the connecting portion 91 while extruding the four mold molded products 90 connected to the connecting portion 91 from the movable die 210b by an unillustrated push-out mechanism, thereby forming each mold. The product 90 is separated from the connecting portion 91. Thereby, the four metal mold | die molded articles 90 are attracted | sucked in each cylindrical accommodating part 30 (refer FIG. 8).
The control unit 80 clamps the spool 91a of the coupling unit 91 by the clamp unit 50, and moves the clamp unit 50 in the direction of arrow D4 in FIG. 5 in conjunction with the movement of an unillustrated pushing mechanism of the molding machine 200. ing.

Is held at a position where it abuts against the inner abutment surface 32a.
Here, the imaging unit 60 acquires image information in which images in the four cylindrical housing units 30 are stored in one image, and then outputs the acquired image information to the control unit 80.

Thereafter, the control unit 80 determines whether or not all the molded products 90 are accommodated in the respective cylindrical accommodation units 30 (step S106).
The suction state determination unit 81 refers to the image information output from the imaging unit 60 and performs image analysis processing on an image region corresponding to each cylindrical storage unit 30, thereby forming a mold in each cylindrical storage unit 30. It is determined whether or not the product 90 is accommodated.

  Here, when the suction state determination unit 81 determines that all the mold molded products 90 are not accommodated in each cylindrical accommodation unit 30 (step S106: No), the control unit 80 The mold product removal apparatus 1 is stopped (step S113), and the suction abnormality notification unit 70 notifies the suction abnormality (step S114). Thus, the operator can take a measure for canceling the abnormality by knowing that the suction abnormality has occurred by the buzzer sound from the speaker as the suction abnormality notification unit 70.

  On the other hand, when the suction state determination unit 81 determines that all the mold molded products 90 are stored in the respective cylindrical storage units 30 (step S106: Yes), the control unit 80 determines the mold molded product extraction unit. 20 is moved to the connecting part receiving part 300 (step S107).

  Then, the control part 80 cancels | releases the clamp of the connection part 91 by the clamp part 50 (step S108). Thereby, as shown in FIG. 10, the connecting portion 91 is detached from the clamp portion 50 and accommodated in the connecting portion receiving portion 300.

  Thereafter, the control unit 80 moves the molded product takeout unit 20 to the molded product receiving unit 400 (step S109).

  Thereafter, the control unit 80 rotates the mold product take-out unit 20 to move closer to the mold product receiving unit 400 (step S110). Thereby, as shown in FIG. 11, the mold molded product take-out unit 20 rotates so that the inlet openings 30 a of the four cylindrical housing units 30 face downward, and further approaches the mold molded product receiving unit 400. , The inlet opening 30a of each cylindrical housing part 30 faces the opening 410 serving as the inlet of each mold product 90 of the mold product receiving part 400 in the vicinity.

  Thereafter, the control unit 80 stops the suction by the suction unit 40 (step S111). As a result, as shown in FIG. 12, the four mold molded products 90 fall from the inside of each cylindrical housing portion 30 due to their own weight, and the openings 410 corresponding to the respective mold molded products 90 of the mold molded product receiving unit 400. Are separately contained in the mold product receiving part 400.

  Thereafter, the control unit 80 determines whether or not to continue the mold forming (step S112), and when it is determined to continue the mold forming (step S112: Yes), the process returns to step S101 and the process described above. repeat.

  On the other hand, when the control unit 80 determines that the mold molding is not continued (step S112: No), the mold molded product take-out unit 20 takes out the four mold molded products 90 from the mold 210 and then molds the mold. The process of sending out to the product receiving unit 400 ends.
