Abstract

PURPOSE:To make an automatic bender simple in construction and low in cost by providing plate grasping robots of a multijoint type to a press brake type bender. CONSTITUTION:A plate body W is grasped from right and left directions by the pawls 6 of robots RR and RL and is controlled to the position of a bender 1 where said body is to be bent. The bender 1 is operated to bend the body. The front and rear of the body W in this stage spring up but the robots controlled by a computer follow up the spring up while grasping the body W. The pawls 6 are released if necessary after the bending and another place is bent by grasping again another place.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to an improvement of an automatic sheet folding device, and particularly relates to an automatic folding device that has a simple and inexpensive structure. An automatic folding device equipped with a robot for gripping and positioning a plate-like object is known, for example, from Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 180463/1983. However, in such conventional robots, the structure of the robot is complicated and large, and the robot is expensive. Therefore, with the recent development of microcomputers, it has become widely used.
It is an object of the present invention to provide the above-mentioned automatic bending device with a simple structure and low cost by using an articulated robot.

Further, the proximal end of a second arm 4 is pivotally connected to the distal end of the first arm 3 by a left-right axis. The proximal ends of the arms 8 of the right robot (Rn) and the left robot (RL) are pivoted by known means so that they can be moved symmetrically over the same distance in the left-right direction Y by the operation of the power MR. . However, it is assumed that the base end of the arm 30 of Rs is fixed in the left and right direction.

Furthermore, a rotating body 5 is pivotally attached to the tip of the second arm 4 by a left-right axis. On the side surfaces of the rotating bodies 5 of the robots 1 RR and RL, gripping claws 6 are provided eccentrically from the rotation axis so as to be openable and closable. As shown in the figure, RR and k are provided symmetrically with the gripping claws 6 facing inward. Further, the rotation angle α of the arm 3 of each robot is controlled by the power M3, and the rotation angle β of the arm 4 is controlled by the power M4. Also, the rotation angle γ of the rotating bodies 5 of RR and RL is controlled by the power M5. It is also assumed that the opening and closing of the pawl 6 is controlled by a power M6 (not shown). On the other hand, the rotary body 5 of the robot R8 is allowed to rotate freely, and a support plate 7 that supports the plate-shaped body W gripped by the left and right claws 6, 6 is integrally fixed. Note that the rotation angle of this rotating body 5 is not forcibly controlled, but it is possible, for example, to provide a balance weight on the opposite side of the rotating body 5 from the plate 7 so that the plate 7 faces the main road. The structure is as follows.

This plate-like body W is gripped from left and right by the RR and the retainer's claws 6. Then, as shown in the figure, the bending machine 1 is controlled to the position where it should be bent.

At this time, the front and back of the plate-shaped body W jumps upward, but each robot is assumed to be able to follow this while gripping the plate-shaped body W under computer control. After performing the bending in this way, if necessary, the claws 6 are released, another part is gripped again, and another part is bent. If the plate-like object W initially positioned in this way is gripped at a fixed position, and then held again after being bent, it can be gripped at one position after another. It is possible to perform bending of various dimensions. Further, in this case, since the plate 7 supports the center of the plate-like body W, the plate 7 can be prevented from being bent.

Next, referring to FIG. 2 as another embodiment, differences from FIG. 1 will be explained. That is, in this case, the gripping claws 6 are provided so as to be openable and closable with the rotational axis of the rotational body 5 coinciding with its center. Accordingly, a support plate 7 is supported by a parallelogram link means 8 at the tip of the arm 4 of the robot Rs. The link means 8 is configured to be able to rotate the plate 7 around the left and right axes in the same direction as the center line of the left and right pawls 6, and the rotation angle thereof is controlled by a power M8. Since its operation is obvious based on the embodiment shown in FIG. 1, it will not be described in detail.
