The working process of the invention is as follows:
and starting the air compressor, wherein the air compressor always works in the whole working process of the sucker to provide a high-pressure air source for the air path. The control solenoid valve is opened, and through manually pressing down first pneumatic valve rod, when opening first pneumatic valve, also stimulate first cylinder piston rod action, the spring of first cylinder is in natural state this moment, and atmospheric pressure is atmospheric pressure in the cavity in the cylinder casing, and sealing washer both sides cavity atmospheric pressure in the cylinder is in balanced state. The second air valve is closed by the second air cylinder under the action of high-pressure air, and the air path between the second air cylinder and the sucker is not communicated. Open vacuum generator, vacuum generator works, carry out evacuation work, form the negative pressure in sucking disc department, when the sucking disc absorbs the work piece, vacuum generator also forms the negative pressure in the cavity to first cylinder inner piston rod place through the evacuation, along with air pressure unbalance in the sealing washer both sides cavity in the cylinder, first cylinder piston rod drives the valve rod motion, when the vacuum of sucking disc department and first cylinder piston rod place cavity reaches a definite value, first air valve is closed to the piston rod drive valve rod of first cylinder, stop for the vacuum generator air feed, vacuum generator is out of work, at this moment, because the check valve, keep vacuum between sucking disc and work piece. At this time, the second air valve is still in a closed state because the electromagnetic valve is not closed. Because there may be less gas leakage between the contact surface between sucking disc and the work piece, when the vacuum of sucking disc department reduces certain vacuum, this moment, the sucking disc still keeps the state of absorbing the work piece, in order to prevent that the work piece from dropping, when setting for the cavity vacuum when first cylinder is less than a definite value, at this moment, first cylinder drives the piston rod motion under spring force and atmospheric pressure effect and opens first pneumatic valve, for vacuum generator air feed, vacuum generator evacuation, improve the vacuum of sucking disc department, when the vacuum of sucking disc department reaches certain setting value, then the piston rod motion of first cylinder is in place and just closes first pneumatic valve, continue to carry out the pressurize work. When the sucking disc sucks the workpiece to the position for placing the workpiece, the control electromagnetic valve is closed, high-pressure gas is no longer provided for the inner chamber of the second air cylinder, the second air cylinder drives the valve rod of the second air valve to move under the action of the elastic force of the spring, the second air valve is opened, air enters the sucking disc to break vacuum, and the sucking disc puts down the workpiece along with the breaking of vacuum. The piston rod of the first air cylinder drives the first air valve to open under the action of air pressure and spring force, and at the moment, the electromagnetic valve is closed, no high-pressure air source passes through the first air valve, and the vacuum generator does not work. When the sucker moves to the position for sucking the workpiece from the position for placing the workpiece again, the electromagnetic valve is opened, the high-pressure air source enters the vacuum generator through the first air valve, the vacuum is pumped, and the work is repeated.
In the device design of the invention, the displacement distance of the piston rod is required to be in direct proportion to the stress. The elastic force of the spring is adjusted through the adjusting nut, so that the stroke distance of the piston rod is adjusted.
The invention realizes the pressure maintaining state of the sucking disc by controlling the on-off of the air valve through the air pressure change of the air passage in the operation process in a mechanical mode, shortens the working time of the vacuum generator, saves the control operation of the air valve additionally and realizes the energy saving in multiple aspects.
