下面将结合本发明实施例中的附图,对本发明实施例中的技术方案进行清楚、完整地描述,显然,所描述的实施例仅仅是本发明一部分实施例,而不是全部的实施例。基于本发明中的实施例,本领域普通技术人员在没有做出创造性劳动前提下所获得的所有其他实施例,均属于本发明保护的范围。
请结合参阅图1-图3,图1是本发明实施方式提供的应用于自动化生产线的托盘定位装置10的立体结构示意图,图2是本发明实施方式提供的应用于自动化生产线的托盘定位装置10另一角度的立体结构示意图,图3是图2所示的托盘定位装置10的分解示意图。本发明提供一种应用于自动化生产线的托盘定位装置10,该托盘定位装置10包括托盘100、机架(未图示)、输送机构200、阻挡机构300、顶升定位机构400、固定机构500、安装板600、控制器(未图示)以及传感器700。
控制器与输送机构200、阻挡机构300、顶升定位机构400、固定机构500以及控制器电连接以进行驱动控制。
托盘100用于放置待传输的零件,托盘100包括第一侧边110及与第一侧边110相背设置的第二侧边120,其中,第一侧边120朝向第一侧边110的方向与托盘100的流动方向相同,即为第一方向,如图1和图2所示的x方向。第一侧边110设有凹槽111。本实施方式中,托盘100大致呈矩形体状,凹槽111的数量为2个,当然,在其它实施方式中,凹槽111的数量还可以为其他数量(例如:3个、5个),在此不作限定。
输送机构200设置在机架上,输送机构200包括平行间隔设置的两个传送件210,两个传送件210用于在第一方向上传输托盘100。其中,输送机构200可以是倍速链或传送带,本实施方式中,输送机构200为倍速链。
安装板600上开设有多个孔位,下文安装结构使用时到时具体介绍。
请结合参阅图4,图4是图3中所示的托盘定位装置10的阻挡机构300的分解结构示意图。阻挡机构300安装在安装板600上,并位于预设位置的前端,用于在预设位置的前端止挡托盘100,其中,预设位置定义为托盘100沿第一方向流动的目的地。可以理解,托盘100在输送机构200的输送作用下流动至预设位置,又因阻挡机构300的止挡作用,停止在预设位置,此时,输送机构200保持运行。
阻挡机构300包括前端安装座310、前端气缸320、前端气动滑台330、阻挡板340以及固定件350。
其中,前端安装座310包括竖板311、横板312以及三角筋板313,横板311可垂直连接在竖板312的中间部位,三角筋板313将竖板311和横板312连接以起到加强作用,横板312与安装板600固定连接,以使前端安装座310与安装板600固定连接。
前端气缸320的侧面与前端安装座310相固定并通过前端安装座310与安装板600的底面固定连接,前端气动滑台330与前端气缸320的前端缸杆321固定连接。
阻挡板340与前端气动滑台330相固定,阻挡板340用于在托盘100流动至预设位置时抵持托盘100的第一侧边110,以止挡托盘100继续沿第一方向流动。前端气动滑台330可呈图示的L型板状,可贯穿活动于孔610内,阻挡板340优选可采用尼龙材料制成。
本实施方式中,阻挡板340所在的平面与托盘100所在的平面平行,当托盘100到位时,阻挡板340的侧面与托盘100的第一侧边110抵接,从而将托盘100挡住。
可以理解,前端缸杆321处于缩回状态时阻挡板340低于输送机构200的传动平面,此时,阻挡板340不会对托盘100进行止挡,而前端缸杆321处于伸出状态时阻挡板340高于输送机构200的传动平面,此时,阻挡板340至少与托盘100处于同一高度,以在托盘100沿第一方向移动至阻挡机构300时,阻挡板340对托盘100进行止挡。
可以理解,固定件350的厚度大于阻挡板340的厚度,以使得托盘100被顶升定位机400顶起时,固定件350仍然能够插设在凹槽111中,从而实现托盘100在第一方向与第二方向上双向定位,其中,第二方向为图1及图2所示的y方向,所述第二方向与第一方向垂直。在一实施例中,所述第一方向与第二方向均为水平方向,且相互垂直。
在本实施方式中,固定件350为滚轮,凹槽111为“V”型槽。可以理解,滚轮与凹槽111之间的摩擦力为滑动摩擦,可以有效减少摩擦,降低损耗。
其中,固定件350与阻挡板340可以通过螺纹固定连接。本实施方式中,阻挡机构300包括两个固定件350,阻挡板340上开设有两个螺纹孔341,每一螺纹孔341上与一固定件350螺纹固定连接。
请结合参阅图5,图5是图3中所示的托盘定位装置10的顶升定位机构400的立体结构示意图。顶升定位机构400安装在安装板600上,用于在第三方向上托起托盘100,以使托盘100脱离输送机构200,第三方向与第一方向、第二方向均垂直,其中,第三方向为图1及图2所示意的z方向,为竖直方向。
顶升定位机构400包括顶升定位气缸410、连接件420、定位支撑板430、顶升直线轴承440、顶升导轴450、导向轴支座460以及限位件470。
其中,顶升定位气缸410通过顶升定位气缸法兰411与安装板600的底面相固定,顶升定位气缸410的顶升缸杆412通过连接件420与定位支撑板430固定连接,连接件420可为连接法兰,定位支撑板430支撑位于安装板600的上表面,顶升定位气缸410的顶升缸杆412通过孔620贯穿安装板600,顶升导轴450通过孔630贯穿安装板600并通过导向轴支座460与定位支撑板430的底面固定连接,顶升直线轴承440通过顶升直线轴承法兰441与安装板600的底面固定连接并接收顶升导轴450贯穿插设,限位件470在顶升直线轴承440的下端与顶升导轴450固定以限位顶升导轴450的上升行程。
在本实施方式中,顶升定位机构400中包括四根顶升导轴450,考虑顶升定位气缸410的伸出误差,在四根顶升导轴450的一端装有限位件470,采用机械限位的方式实现零件在竖直方向上的精确定位。
请结合参阅图6,图6是图3中所示的托盘定位装置10的固定机构500的立体结构示意图。固定机构500安装在安装板600上,并位于预设位置的后端,用于进一步对托盘100进行夹紧定位。固定机构500包括后端安装座510、后端升降气缸520、后端气动滑台530、后端定位气缸540以及定位块550。
后端升降气缸520与后端安装座510相固定并通过后端安装座510与安装板600固定连接。其中,后端安装座510的结构与前端安装座310的结构相同,在此不再赘述。
后端气动滑台530与后端升降气缸520的后端缸杆521连接,后端气动滑台530可呈图示的L型板状,后端气动滑台530贯穿活动于孔640内,后端定位气缸540固定在后端气动滑台530上,为了方便固定,后端定位气缸540和后端气动滑台530之间可设置一气缸安装板560,定位块550固定在后端定位气缸540的定位缸杆541上,定位块550优选可采用尼龙材料制成。
本实施方式中,当托盘100在顶升定位机构400的作用下脱离输送机构200时,后端升降气缸520的后端缸杆521升起,接着后端定位气缸540的定位缸杆541伸出,将定位块550推向托盘100,向托盘100施加一指向阻挡板340的方向的压力,使得定位块550抵持托盘100的第二侧边120。固定件350插设至托盘100的第一侧边110的凹槽111中,实现第一方向与第二方向上的双向定位,在此实施方式中,因托盘100被止挡后,脱离了输送机构200,从而能够有效减少摩擦。其中,顶升定位机构400中的顶升定位气缸410与后端升降气缸520可以同时启动,也可以是顶升定位机构400中的顶升定位气缸410先启动将托盘100顶起后,后端升降气缸520再启动,在此不作限定。
当然,在另一实施方式中,当托盘100被阻挡板340止挡后,固定机构500中的后端升降气缸520的后端缸杆521升起,接着后端定位气缸540的定位缸杆541伸出,将定位块550推向托盘100,使得定位块550抵持托盘100的第二侧边120,进而使得托盘100向靠近阻挡机构300的方向流动,以使得固定件350插设至托盘100的第一侧边110的凹槽111中,实现第一方向与第二方向上的双向定位。
传感器700设置在输送机构200上,并设于预设位置的后端,用于检测输送机构200上是否有托盘100向阻挡机构300流动,当输送机构200上有托盘100向阻挡机构300流动时,阻挡机构300进行升起止挡。本实施方式中,传感器700可以是光电传感器700。
当托盘100流入本托盘定位装置10时,传感器700检测到托盘100到位后,前端气缸320的缸杆伸出,以将阻挡板340顶起,在阻挡板340的止挡作用下托盘100停止向第一方向流动,之后,顶升定位气缸410的顶升缸杆411伸出将托盘100顶起,后端升降气缸520的后端缸杆521伸出,将后端定位气缸540以及定位块550定位,随后,后端定位气缸540的定位缸杆541伸出,将定位块550推向托盘100,使得托盘100向阻挡板340流动,进而固定件350插设至凹槽111中,从而实现第一方向与第二方向上双向定位,此时,托盘100的底部、前端、后端以及第二方向均被定位和夹紧,可进行该工位的自动化作业,待该工位作业完成后,前端气缸320、顶升定位气缸410和后端升降气缸520依次收回,使得托盘100沿第一方向继续流动,等待下一个托盘100到位。
由于本发明提供的应用于自动化生产线的托盘定位装置10通过在托盘100的第一侧边110设有凹槽111,阻挡机构300设有阻挡板340以及固定件350,阻挡板340在止挡托盘100继续前行时,固定件350插设至凹槽111中,实现第一方向与第二方向上双向定位,定位结构较为简单,操作简便,所需的电气控制要求较低,能够有效减少成本。
以上所述仅为本发明的实施方式,并非因此限制本发明的专利范围,凡是利用本发明说明书及附图内容所作等效结构或等效流程变换,或直接或间接运用在其他相关的技术领域,均同理包括在本发明的专利保护范围内。
