Abstract

A vacuum ejector (1) has a nozzle (4) which can be connected to a compressed air supply (3) in order to direct a jet of compressed air against a plate (5) positioned close to the nozzle head at right angles to the nozzle central axis, so that the stream of compressed air is deflected to expand outwards in a radial direction. Numerous openings (12) are provided in the plate at a pre-selected radial distance from the midpoint of the location where the jet of air impinges against it. Separate channels (14) leading off from these openings can be connected to individual suction devices, preferably suction heads (2).

Description

507 861 2 För bästa resultat skall öppningarna i skivan ha formen av cirkelbågformade slitsar med sanna krökningsradie som det radiella avståndet till skivans mittpunkt. Mellanrummen mellan slitsarna skall enligt en föredragen utföringsform av uppfinningen vara en bråkdel av slitsarnas längd. För reducering av tryckfallen i kanalerna till suqanordningarna bör dessa ha väsentligt större areor än tillhörande öppning i skivan. 507 861 2 For best results, the openings in the disc should have the shape of circular arc-shaped slots with a true radius of curvature as the radial distance to the center of the disc. The gaps between the slots should, according to a preferred embodiment of the invention, be a fraction of the length of the slots. In order to reduce the pressure drops in the channels to the suction devices, these should have significantly larger areas than the associated opening in the disc.

Uppfinningen är närmare tydliggjord i det följande under hänvisning till bifogade ritning, scnrschematiskt visar en scnxexempel vald utföringsform av en vakuumejektor enligt uppfinningen,och på vilken figur l är en längs- sektion gemun ejektorn och figur 2 är en tvärsektion efter linjen II-II i fig.l Fig.l visar vakumejektorn l med suqkoppar 2. Ejektorn l består av en överdel la och en underdel lb. överdelen la är försedd med en anslutning 3 till en icke visad tryckluftkälla och en dvsa 4 med en centrmaxel riktad vinkelrätt mot en skiva 5, som utgör en del av en ovansida 6 på underdelen lb. En spalt 7 är anordnad mellan överdelens la undersida 8 och underdelens lb ovansida 6. Spalten 7 är fixerad medelst radiella bcnnar 9 på underdelen lb och en styrfläns 10 på överdelen la.The invention is further elucidated in the following with reference to the accompanying drawing, schematically shows an exemplary embodiment of a vacuum ejector according to the invention, and in which figure 1 is a longitudinal section of the ejector and figure 2 is a cross section along the line II-II in fig. Fig. 1 shows the vacuum ejector 1 with suction cups 2. The ejector 1 consists of an upper part 1a and a lower part 1b. the upper part 1a is provided with a connection 3 to a source of compressed air (not shown) and a nozzle 4 with a central axis directed perpendicularly to a disc 5, which forms part of an upper side 6 of the lower part 1b. A gap 7 is arranged between the underside 8 of the upper part 1a and the upper side 6 of the lower part 1b. The gap 7 is fixed by means of radial beams 9 on the lower part 1b and a guide flange 10 on the upper part 1a.

En förlängning av dysans 4 centrumaxel träffar en mittpunkt ll på skivan 5. Såsom framgår främst av fig.2 är ett antal cirkelbågformade öppningar 12 anordnade i skivan 5 på ett bestämt radiellt avstånd från mittpunkten ll. Mellan öppningarna 12 är små mellanrum 13 anordnade i plan med skivans 5 vta, vilka mellanrum har en periferiell utsträckning som är en bråkdel av öppningarnas l2 periferiella utsträckning.An extension of the center axis of the nozzle 4 strikes a center point 11 on the disc 5. As can be seen mainly from Fig. 2, a number of circular arcuate openings 12 are arranged in the disc 5 at a certain radial distance from the center point 11. Between the openings 12 small gaps 13 are arranged in plane with the vta of the disc 5, which gaps have a peripheral extent which is a fraction of the peripheral extent of the openings 12.

Varje öppning 12 komnmnicerar med en tillhörande kanal 14, son sträcker sig först axiellt och sedan radiellt utåt till en vid underdelens lb mantelyta anbragt níppel 15, på vilken en slang 16 är fastsatt ledande till en sugkopp 2, som är anordnad på undersidan av en platta 17, på vars ovansida en konsol 18 uppbärande ejektorn 1 är anbragt.Each opening 12 communicates with an associated channel 14, which extends first axially and then radially outwards to a nipple 15 arranged at the circumferential surface of the lower part 1b, on which a hose 16 is attached leading to a suction cup 2, which is arranged on the underside of a plate. 17, on the upper side of which a bracket 18 supporting the ejector 1 is arranged.

Om sugkopparna 2 ansätts mot ett föremål 19 med slät yta, som skall lyftas, och tryckluft tillförs anslutningen 3,l«:nner en stråle av tryckluft att riktas mot skivans 5 mittpunkt ll, varvid strålen avlänkas radiellt utåt åt alla håll, varvid på känt sätt ett undertryck kommer att uppstå i öppningarna l2 och därmed i de separata kanalerna 14, slangarna 16 och sugkopparna 2. Om någon eller några av sugkopparna 2 skulle bli belägna utanför föremålets 19 yta kan inget undertryck alstras i denna eller dessa sugkoppar utan resultatet blir endast att luft sugs in. Genom utformningen av vakuumejektorn i enlighet med uppfinningen med en öppning 12 för varje 507 861 3 sugkopp 2 begränsas luftinsugningen i de öppna suqkopparna och reduceras undertrycken i de återstående sugkopparna med endast ca 3 %-enheter.If the suction cups 2 are applied to an object 19 with a smooth surface to be lifted, and compressed air is supplied to the connection 3, a jet of compressed air is directed towards the center point 11 of the disc 5, the jet being deflected radially outwards in all directions, otherwise a negative pressure will arise in the openings 12 and thus in the separate channels 14, the hoses 16 and the suction cups 2. If any or some of the suction cups 2 were to be located outside the surface of the object 19, no negative pressure can be generated in this or these suction cups. that air is sucked in. By designing the vacuum ejector according to the invention with an opening 12 for each suction cup 2, the air intake in the open suction cups is limited and the negative pressure in the remaining suction cups is reduced by only about 3% units.

Detta innebär en kraftig förbättring i jämförelse med ett konventionellt utförande av vakuumejektorn med alla sugkopparna 2 anslutna till en gemensam vakuumkænnare i ejektorns underdel konnmnicerande med ett cirkulärt spår i skivan 5. Vid ett sådant känt utförande Manner som regel lasten att släppas, om en eller flera sugkoppar skulle missa föremålet som skall lyftes eller om den eller de sugkopparna skulle släppa under lyftet.This means a significant improvement compared to a conventional design of the vacuum ejector with all the suction cups 2 connected to a common vacuum sensor in the lower part of the ejector communicating with a circular groove in the disc 5. In such a known design Manner usually loads to be released, if one or more suction cups would miss the object to be lifted or if the suction cup or cups would drop during lifting.

Uppfinningen är själfallet inte begränsad till det här visade och beskrivna utföringsexemplet utan kan modifieras på åtskilliga sätt inom ramen för den i patentkraven definierade uppfínningstanken. Sålunda kan vid större lyftanordningar flera var för sig matade vakuumejektorer vara anordnade att driva var sin grupp av sugkoppar. Även andra suganordningar än sugkoppar kan kcnna ifråga, t.ex. ett flertal anordningar för samtidig uppsuqning av vätska i behållare. Sugkanalerna 14 kan vidare vara anordnade enbart i axiell riktning med nipplarna 15 anordnade på underdelens lb undersida. Även utströmningen av tryckluften i spalten 7 kan vara anordnad att ske i axiell riktning upp genom överdelen la. Med dysa avses varje form av munstycke scnxkan bilda en tryckluftsstråle. Vidare är det möjligt att anordna öppningarna 12 i skivan 5 på varierande avstånd från mittpunkten ll för ernående av olika undertryck hos de olika suganordningarna.The invention is of course not limited to the exemplary embodiment shown and described here, but can be modified in several ways within the scope of the inventive concept defined in the claims. Thus, in the case of larger lifting devices, several vacuum ejectors fed separately can be arranged to drive their respective groups of suction cups. Suction devices other than suction cups may also be involved, e.g. a plurality of devices for simultaneous aspiration of liquid into containers. The suction channels 14 can furthermore be arranged only in the axial direction with the nipples 15 arranged on the underside of the lower part 1b. The outflow of the compressed air into the gap 7 can also be arranged to take place in the axial direction up through the upper part 1a. By nozzle is meant any form of nozzle which can form a jet of compressed air. Furthermore, it is possible to arrange the openings 12 in the disc 5 at varying distances from the center point 11 in order to obtain different negative pressures of the different suction devices.
