Definitions
- the invention relates to a device for gripping and / or handling plate-shaped workpieces of any shape, in particular sheet metal parts with openings, the device working according to the vacuum suction principle with a plurality of suction gripping elements which can be connected to a suction line.
- Sheet metal workpieces such as those required for device construction, can have complicated shapes with irregular outer contours, various recesses and very different sizes, and can also consist of a wide variety of materials. It is therefore difficult to create a universally functioning gripping technology.
- gripping technology In the context of flexible sheet metal part production, gripping technology must be able to be incorporated into a universal disposal system. In practice, however, there are numerous restrictions which run counter to the requirement to cover all contingencies in flexible production. As a result, full automation without restriction to certain access requirements in the prior art has so far been impossible.
- EP-B-0 135 095 describes a gripping device with suction gripping elements that can be activated individually via a suction line, with which, in particular, the automatic loading and disposal of a punching-nibbling machine is possible using an industrial robot.
- the automatic loading and disposal of a punching-nibbling machine is possible using an industrial robot.
- DE-A-37 23 743 recently proposed a method for the disposal of sheet metal cutting machines with associated system, with which flexible sheet metal disposal can take place and "Handling" of the sheet metal parts is possible without gripping.
- the limitation concerns the disposal route from the sheet metal cutting machine, because parts in the scrap skeleton or window waste parts can only be discharged downwards, which is often not possible with large parts.
- the object of the invention is to provide a device with which problem parts can also be gripped.
- the object is achieved in that a large number of comparatively small suction gripping elements are arranged in a narrow grid, the individual suction gripping elements with flow valves being designed in such a way that a defined amount of air can flow through in the closed state.
- “Blind” gripping also includes the property that it can first be gripped "into the void” without the functionality of the gripper being lost either by a vacuum breakdown or by total closure of the suction gripping elements.
- the flow valves are built into the individual suction gripping elements. It has proven to be particularly simple that an already existing fastening fitting of the actual suction cup is used to implement a flow valve, the mouthpiece of which is used as a valve seat. It is important here that the valve seat - for example made of hard elastic plastic - has or receives a suitable surface structure and / or roughness, so that it does not seal completely with the associated sealing element. It is also possible to achieve this tightness by means of metal valve seats.
- the invention therefore uses in the simplest way that instead of the valve seats made of elastomer used previously, those made of stable plastic with a defined, intended mismatch are used.
- FIG. 1 shows the floor plan of a board referred to as a so-called problem part with a complicated outer contour and a large number of openings and incisions
- FIG. 2 shows the division of the wings from a suction gripping element with a 50 mm diameter into a grid of hexagonal cells
- FIG. 3 shows the division of a 144 mm plot into 61 16 mm small cells
- FIG. 4 shows a suction gripping element with a valve in cross section and used here
- FIG. 5 schematically shows the overall arrangement complete with suction gripping element according to FIG. 4.
- circuit board 1 shows a circuit board 1 which is considered a problem part.
- the circuit board 1 has an irregular contour 2, various incisions 3 and / or openings 4. Such circuit boards are difficult to handle with conventional suction gripper devices.
- FIG. 2 it is shown that in the invention, the likelihood that the load capacity of a gripper is maintained can be improved by a plurality of suction gripping elements.
- 11 indicates the contour of a suction gripping element with a diameter of 50 mm. If such a suction gripping element is placed on a circuit board 1 according to FIG. 1 with irregular incisions 3 and / or openings 4, the probability is high that an incision and / or opening will be made and the load-bearing capacity of this suction gripping element 11 will be lost.
- FIG. 3 shows a 50 mm suction gripping element in a parcel 20 with a 144 mm wrench size, as is common in conventional gripper arrangements. Likewise, gripping elements are arranged in the plot 20 in a surface-tight arrangement.
- a suction gripping element 30 consists of the actual suction cup 31, which is connected with its rear part 33 to a fitting part 34 via a connecting element 38 designed as a union nut.
- the parts 33 and 34 form a flow valve 35.
- the flow valve 35 consists, in a manner known per se, of a valve seat 36 and a sealing element which presses against the valve seat 36, for example a ball 37.
- the valve seat 36 is usually provided with a provided elastomeric seal. 3
- the valve seat 36 has a mismatch with respect to the ball 37, which is realized, for example, by a surface structure and / or roughness. It is thereby achieved that, even when the valve 35 is closed, the valve seat cannot be completely sealed, but rather a defined amount of air flows through it.
- a grid 32 separates the suction cup 31 from the flow valve 35.
- a gripping device 40 is essentially formed by two plates 41 and 42 with sealing elements 43 and 44 in between, a fastening flange 45 being attached to the upper plate 41 for coupling to a handling device or a robot.
- a vacuum connection 46 is provided on the upper plate 42, via which the space between the plates 41 and 42 can be acted upon by vacuum.
- the suction cups 31 and the fitting main part 34 carrying the valve seat 36 can be exchanged in a simple manner, so that worn parts can be easily replaced. This is advantageous in practice, since otherwise the entire arrangement would have to be replaced.
- the arrangement of the many small suction gripper elements to form a close-to-seal trim has a lower surface flexibility than is known from large suction gripper elements in a loosened trim density.
- the individual suction gripping elements have seating tolerances, so that not all suction gripping elements would sit on a completely flat workpiece. In practice, there are also separating processes. more or less discarded workpieces. It is also not easy to ensure parallelism when touching down. It has also been shown that the pressure required for a full seat on a large gripper surface can be uncontrollable. For all these reasons, it is likely that when the gripper is placed on the workpiece only a part of the suction gripping elements will fully seal, ie it will take effect immediately when the vacuum is switched on.
- the entire polyp gripper with activated vacuum can be pressed onto a workpiece in any configuration and can be gripped.
- the workpiece is mechanically torn off or z.
- Another special application of the new gripping device is the use as a section in a ring-shaped circumferential overhead conveyor belt. Many such sections can be connected as links in a link belt such that they can move.
