Description

一种层叠托盘分层上料装置 技术领域
本发明属于自动化制造技术领域,尤其涉及一种层叠托盘分层上料装置。
背景技术
在生产制造组装及测试中,电子元器件一般容纳在托盘中,尤其是容易污染受损的零件。为了搬运方便,托盘一般设计为可以层叠堆积的结构。以显示面板测试为例,在整个测试过程中,托盘以层叠方式进行转运,完成每一层内显示面板的取出-测试-放回。
在现有的自动化生产中,堆叠的托盘放置在一定位置,利用机械手吸取最上层的面板到测试机台进行测试,此时需要机械手将空的托盘转移到另一工位,方便测试后的显示面板放回。由于托盘的边缘较小,机械手从中间大面积处吸取托盘,这就可能造成对其下方的显示面板造成损坏。另外,单个机械手完成时操作程序复杂,降低生产效率;多个机械手分别完成取放动作时操作空间有限,容易产生干涉问题。
因此,有必要提供一种能够使用方便、运行稳定的层叠托盘分层上料装置,提高层叠托盘中所容纳材料的组装、测试效率。
发明内容
鉴于以上所述现有技术的不足,本发明的目的在于:提供一种能够使用方便、运行稳定的层叠托盘分层上料装置,实现层叠托盘的快速分层,并对分离托盘进行移送,方便上下料。

工作中,将层叠托盘放置于升降载台上,控制升降载台的高度,例如使底层托盘与倒数第二层托盘的中间位置和插片平齐,两侧的插片朝向层叠托盘运动,支撑倒数第二层及以上的托盘,此时控制升降载台下降,使底层托盘与插片上的其他层托盘分离,机械手从底层托盘上取出产品,当需要测试完成后将产品放回原托盘中时待产品放回后控制升降载台的高度,使升降载台重新支撑插片上的托盘,插片远离托盘运动,调整升降载台高度,使倒数第二层托盘与倒数第三层托盘的中间位置和插片平齐,重复以上动作,完成整个层叠托盘内产品的上下料。
所述插片安装于安装座上,所述安装座相向或相背运动,使得所述插片朝向或远离层叠托盘运动,所述插片上连接有连板,所述连板两端分别设有限位块,调节所述限位块之间的距离以在托盘长度方向上对托盘进行定位,连板本身在宽度方向上对托盘进行定位,防止脱出。

所述第一夹紧气缸固定安装于所述升降载台一侧,所述第二夹紧气缸位置可调地安装于所述升降载台另一侧,根据托盘长度尺寸调节所述第二夹紧气缸的安装位置,从而调节第一夹紧气缸和第二夹紧气缸的相对位置,方便利用同一活塞杆位置信号进行监控。

所述夹持块上设有用于容纳托盘边角的放置槽,在所述横梁的一端,所述夹持块的安装位置可调。工作时,升降载台使托盘与放置槽平齐,横梁朝向托盘运动,使托盘的四角容纳于放置槽内。调节夹持块的安装位置,目的在于适应不同尺寸的托盘。
所述夹持机构下方设有升降机构和运输机构,所述升降机构将夹持机构上的托盘转送至运输机构,所述运输机构将托盘运送至出料位置,所述出料位置位于所述分离机构下方。夹持机构上的空托盘或者测试完成后载有产品的托盘可以重新在升降机构上堆叠起来,再次形成层叠托盘,将层叠托盘转送至运输机构运出,完成整个层叠托盘的下料工作,整个层叠托盘分层上料装置作为一个整体,上下料位置在装置的同一侧,结构紧凑,便于操作。

具体实施方式
下面将对本发明具体实施例中的技术方案进行清楚、完整地描述,显然,所描述的实施例仅是本发明的一部分实施例,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,都属于本发明保护的范围。
实施例一:
如图1所示的层叠托盘分层上料装置,包括升降载台2和分离机构3。如图2所示,分离机构3包括正对安装在机架1上的两组安装座30,升降载台2位于两组安装座30之间。在安装座30上设有插片31,插片31在第一气缸35的作用下朝向或远离升降载台2运动。其中插片31可以为一个整体的板材,也可以为若干条形物形成的承托面。如图3所示,升降载台2在第二气缸21的作用下进行升降运动。
在初始状态下,插片31远离升降载台2,工作时,将层叠托盘例如20层托盘放置于升降载台2上,驱动第二气缸21使底层托盘即第20层托盘与第19层托盘的中间位置和插片31平齐,此时,启动第一气缸35,使插片31朝向升降载台2运动,将第19层托盘及其上的其余18层托盘均承载于插片31上,驱动第二气缸21使升降载台向下运动,使最底层的托盘与其他托盘分离出来,完成分层动作。
如图2所示,安装座30通过第一滑轨36安装于机架1上,根据托盘的宽度尺寸调节安装座30在第一滑轨36上的位置,并用第一螺母34锁紧固定。插片31上连接有连板32,在连板32的两侧设有条形孔321和与条形孔321活动连接的限位块33,根据托盘的长度尺寸调节限位块33在条形孔321上的安装位置,并以第一螺母34锁紧固定。如此,实现了分离机构3对不同尺寸托盘的适用性, 且调节方便。
结合图3和图4所示,在升降载台2的两侧设有用于夹紧托盘的两组正对的第一夹紧气缸22和第二夹紧气缸23,所述第一夹紧气缸22和第二夹紧气缸23的活塞杆上均连接有推板24,推板24相向运动夹紧托盘。推板24与托盘相接触的面设为斜面,其角度与托盘的拔模角相同,增大了两者之间的接触面积。
如图4所示,在本实施例中,第一夹紧气缸22上设有两个磁感应传感器A和B,第一夹紧气缸22全伸出时磁感应传感器A反馈信号,全缩回时磁感应传感器B反馈信号;第二夹紧气缸23上也设有两个磁感应传感器A’和B’(图中未示出),第二夹紧气缸23半伸出时磁感应传感器A’反馈信号,全缩回时磁感应传感器B’反馈信号;通过接收到的反馈信号判断升降载台2上是否有托盘、托盘是否处于夹紧状态。在另外的实施例中,也可以利用电缸等驱动部配合光电传感器来实现升降载台2上托盘的夹紧以及状态反馈,但相比较,本实施中的夹紧气缸和磁感应传感器具有节约成本的优点,且能够适应透明材质制成的托盘。传感器的数量也可以设置多个,例如对活塞杆的全缩回、半伸出、全伸出状态均进行反馈。
具体的,工作过程中,当收到磁感应传感器A和A’的反馈信号时,说明升降载台2上的托盘已经夹紧;当收到磁感应传感器B和B’的反馈信号时,说明未进行夹紧动作;当仅收到磁感应传感器A’的反馈信号时,此时第二夹紧气缸23为全伸出状态,说明升降载台2上没有托盘。在本实施例中,结合托盘自身质量,第一夹紧气缸22、第二夹紧气缸23的供压为0.1Mpa,当第二夹紧气缸23在半伸出状态时活塞杆受到托盘的阻力无法继续伸出,则托盘被夹紧;若活塞杆全伸出,则说明升降载台2上无托盘。
由于利用活塞杆位置来反馈状态,活塞杆的行程是确定的,则第一夹紧气缸22、第二夹紧气缸23的安装位置与托盘尺寸相关,在本实施例中,第一夹紧气缸22和第二夹紧气缸23通过升降载台2两侧的侧板安装,第一夹紧气缸22在升降载台2上的安装位置固定,作为基准位置。第二夹紧气缸23在升降载台2侧边的安装位置根据托盘尺寸调整,对应的,在侧边设有调节安装位置的滑槽。在升降载台2上还设有调节位置用第一刻度尺25,保证调节精度。
结合图1和图3所示,在升降载台2下方设有移送机构4,用于运输分离出的托盘,便于上料或下料。移送机构4包括移板41、带传动机构、骨架板44和直线运动机构。
在本实施例中,直线运动机构为丝杠副45,在其他实施例中,也可以为线轨滑块、电缸、气缸等,带传动机构在运输物对环境无要求时也可以使用链传动机构代替。
具体的,第二气缸21安装于移板41上,移板41通过底部的滑块42与皮带43固定连接,皮带43还固定连接有固定板48,固定板48、丝杠副45均安装于机架1上。骨架板44的两端分别与带轮的轮轴固定连接,中部与丝杠副45的丝母46连接,丝杠副45由电机47驱动,带动丝母座46直线运动,从而驱动骨架板44直线运动。动作原理为:骨架板44运动使得带轮直线运动,皮带43由于通过固定板48固定,与皮带43连接的移板41以两倍速度直线运动,即当丝母46带动骨架板44、带轮移动1mm时,移板41移动2mm。在本实施例中,移板41的两侧均连接一组皮带,丝杠副45位于两组皮带43之间,提高了移送中的稳定性。
结合图1和图5所示,在分离机构3的一侧设有夹持机构5。分离机构3分 离出的最底层托盘经移送机构4转运至夹持机构5。夹持机构5包括两个正对滑动连接在第二滑轨50上的横梁51,在横梁51的两端通过第二锁紧螺母54安装有夹持块52,四个夹持块52形成一个夹持区域。在夹持块52上设有放置槽521,用于放置托盘的边角,从而支撑托盘。在横梁51中部设有支撑板53,起到辅助支撑的作用。在两横梁51正对的两端设有滑槽55,通过调节第二锁紧螺母54在滑槽55内的安装位置来调节夹持区域的长度,以适应不同尺寸的托盘。在横梁51对应位置还设有调节位置时用到的第二刻度尺56。
工作时,调节升降平台2的高度,使托盘的边缘与放置槽521在同一水平面上,移送机构4使托盘到达夹持机构5的夹持区域内部,横梁51沿第二滑轨50运动从而夹持托盘。
结合图1和图6所示,在夹持机构5下方设有升降机构6和运输机构7。升降机构6用于将夹持机构5上的托盘转运至运输机构7,再由运输机构7运送出。
升降机构6包括一组沿导杆62进行升降运动的升降板61,运输机构7包括两组平行的传送带71,升降板61位于传送带71之间。当夹持机构5上托盘内的面板完成测试后,升降板61从底部支撑托盘,横梁51向两侧运动,松开托盘,升降板61向下运动,将托盘放在传送带71上。电机驱动传送带71运行,将托盘运输至出料位,升降板61升起。其中出料位在分离机构3下方,使整个层叠托盘分层上料装置作为一个整体,上下料位置在装置的同一侧,结构紧凑,便于操作。
在升降板61的一端设有挡板63和一排用于安装挡板63的安装孔64,根据托盘的尺寸选择合适的安装孔64来安装挡板63。
在传送带71两侧设有滚轮72,当托盘尺寸较大时,滚轮72起到支撑作用。 在滚轮72的外侧还设有防护板73,防止托盘从两边脱出。
以显示面板测试为例,该层叠托盘分层上料装置的具体工作过程为:
将层叠的例如20层承载有显示面板的托盘放入升降载台2上,并利用第一夹紧气缸22和第二夹紧气缸23夹紧最底层托盘,通过第二气缸21调节升降载台2的高度,使底层托盘即第20层托盘与第19层托盘的中间位置和插片31平齐;
启动第一气缸35,使插片31朝向升降载台21运动,将第19层托盘及其上的其余18层托盘均承载于插片31上,驱动第二气缸21使升降载台向下运动,使最底层的托盘从层叠托盘中分离出来;
启动电机47,移送机构4带动分离出的托盘到达夹持机构5,并通过夹持机构5夹紧,移送机构4退回分离机构3下方,进行第19层托盘的分离,人工或机械手将第20层托盘内的面板取出进行测试;
升降机构6上升从底部支撑夹持机构5上的托盘,根据生产的需要,待测试完成的面板放回托盘内,或者仅将空的托盘下降一定高度,直至20层托盘全部回到升降机构6上时,所有托盘也转入运输机构7,传送带71运动使承载有测试完的面板的托盘或空的托盘运输出来。
上述的工作过程仅作为示例,在实际中,可根据需要设置升降载台、分离机构、移送机构、夹持机构、升降机构、运输机构中的若干组合来进行产品生产、测试中的某些工作。在进行其他工作时,插片31可以根据需要插入层叠托盘中任意层托盘的底面,而不限于倒数第二层。
