Abstract

PURPOSE:To embody full automation of the work of aligning odd-shaped blanks by transferring to a specified position of a conveyor odd-shaped blanks machined by a press, and movign and positioning the blanks by means of an articulated robot, and then storing them in a magazine for subsequent processes. CONSTITUTION:An odd-shaped blank 2 machined by a press 1 is discharged onto a conveyor 3 provided in connection with the press 1, and when the blank 2 is conveyed to a specified position of the end of the conveyor 3, an image processing camera 4 captures its image and a visual controller computes the position of the center of gravity and the position of rotation of the blank 2 and its data are transferred to a robot controller. The robot arm of an articulated robot 5 is shifted to the position of the center of gravity of the deformed blank 2 according to this shift data and the odd-shaped blank 2 is attracted by the attracting device of the articulated robot 5. Then the robot arm 6 is shifted to a specified position of a magazine 8 and is positioned and then the odd-shaped blank 2 is released and its put in the magazine 8 and stored therein while being aligned with other blanks.

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a conveyor, such as a gravity machine, an air ejector, a chute, a tray unloader, or a conveyor, has been used to take out a processed product pressed by a pressing machine. It is only for gathering in one place, but in the case of deformed blank material, it is often necessary to perform processing such as banding in the subsequent process, for that purpose it is aligned in a certain posture and there is no deviation It has to be stacked up like this, and in the past, this great work was done manually.

It is said that blanks that have been pressed, particularly deformed blanks, are complicated in shape and cannot be aligned by a machine because of their many types. Therefore, until now, most of the blank materials that reached the end of the conveyor were moved to another stacking place by hand by hand, and they were aligned one by one. Alignment work was very hard work and was inefficient and inefficient.
