Description
一種擰螺絲系統,尤指一種致動器與擰螺絲機於使用中,兩者在垂直方向上有匹配的位移量的擰螺絲系統。A screw-tightening system, in particular, a screw-tightening system in which an actuator and a screw machine are in use, and the two have a matching displacement in the vertical direction.
鎖螺絲機廣泛運用於製造業中,對於製造業者而言,鎖螺絲機的操作性能、使用效能以及使用壽命事關業者的產能,因此相當重要。Locking screw machines are widely used in the manufacturing industry. For manufacturers, the operating performance, use efficiency and service life of the locking screw machines are very important to the production capacity of the industry.
市面上所使用的鎖螺絲機,大多無法在擰緊過程中變速使用,往往以一種螺旋速度運轉,並無法針對多種被鎖物適性的彈性調整。Most of the locking screw machines used in the market cannot be used at variable speeds during the tightening process. They often run at a spiral speed and cannot be adjusted elastically for a variety of locked objects.
此外,傳統的鎖螺絲機是設於機器手臂的垂直軸(Z軸),但因為機器手臂垂直軸的螺距遠大於待鎖螺絲的螺距,因此機器手臂的位移行程往往無法準確地匹配鎖螺絲過程中的垂直行程(Z軸行程)與移動的速度。In addition, the traditional locking screw machine is set on the vertical axis (Z axis) of the robot arm, but because the pitch of the vertical axis of the robot arm is much larger than the pitch of the screw to be locked, the displacement stroke of the robot arm often cannot accurately match the screw locking process The vertical stroke (Z-axis stroke) and the speed of the movement.
為了避免此問題,現有技術會在機器手臂的垂直軸與鎖螺絲機之間安裝一緩衝器,例如彈簧或氣壓缸,調解機器手臂與鎖螺絲機行程與速度無法準確匹配的問題,但彈簧與氣壓缸會對待鎖螺絲施加不必要的垂直方向的施力,增加螺鎖難度,並提高崩牙可能性或增加螺牙磨耗的程度。In order to avoid this problem, the prior art installs a buffer, such as a spring or a pneumatic cylinder, between the vertical axis of the robot arm and the screw machine to adjust the problem that the stroke and speed of the robot arm and the screw machine cannot be accurately matched. The pneumatic cylinder will exert unnecessary vertical force on the screw to be locked, increasing the difficulty of screw locking, and increasing the possibility of tooth collapse or increasing the degree of screw wear.
相對於擰緊螺絲,亦有擰鬆螺絲的需要,傳統的鎖螺絲機往往無法準確找到螺絲並結合螺絲帽頭凹槽,進一步執行擰鬆螺絲的作業。Compared with tightening the screws, there is also a need to loosen the screws. The traditional locking screw machine often cannot accurately find the screws and combine the screw cap head grooves to further perform the operation of loosening the screws.
因此,如何設計一種性能佳、操作簡便且能改善上述問題的擰螺絲系統,是相關領域的專業人員極需研究的課題。Therefore, how to design a screw-tightening system with good performance, easy operation and capable of improving the above-mentioned problems is a subject that professionals in related fields need to study.
