Description

타이어 분류용 컨베이어 벨트의 센터링 장치{Centering apparatus of conveyor belt for tire sorting}Centering apparatus of conveyor belt for tire sorting}

본 발명은 타이어를 규격별로 분류하여 픽업(Pick-up)장치로 운반하기 위하여 컨베이어 벨트 상에서 낱본의 타이어를 센터링 정렬시키는 타이어 분류용 컨베이어 벨트의 센터링 장치에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a centering apparatus for a tire sorting conveyor belt for centering and aligning a piece of tire on a conveyor belt in order to classify tires by specifications and transport them to a pick-up device.

타이어 제조시 검사공정을 마친 완성타이어는 타이어 규격별로 분류하기 위해 컨베이어 벨트로 이송된 후 픽업로봇에 의해 픽업되어 분류되어 지는바, 종래 이 같이 규격별로 타이어를 분류하는 작업은 도 2를 참조로 설명한다.Finished tires after the inspection process in the manufacture of tires are transported to a conveyor belt to be classified by tire standards and then picked up and sorted by a pick-up robot. Thus, the operation of classifying tires by standards is described with reference to FIG. do.

컨베이어 벨트(101)를 타고 화살표 (가)방향으로 운반된 낱본의 타이어(102)는 공식의 픽업로봇에 의해 들어올려 지기 위해 정지하게 되는데, 이송중인 타이어(102)가 감지센서(104)에 감지되면 컨베이어 벨트(101)는 구동을 멈추게 된다. 이어 기계적 센터링 장치(106)가 화살표 (나)방향을 따라 컨베이어 벨트(101)의 바깥쪽에서 안쪽으로 이동하여 정지된 타이어(102)를 센터링 정렬하게 되고, 이 같은 센터링 정렬이 완료되면, 상기 센터링 장치(106)는 다시 컨베이어 벨트(101)의 안쪽 위치에서 바깥쪽 위치로 이동하게 된다.The piece of tire 102 carried on the conveyor belt 101 in the direction of the arrow (A) is stopped to be lifted by the official pickup robot, and the transporting tire 102 is detected by the detection sensor 104. When the conveyor belt 101 is stopped driving. The mechanical centering device 106 then moves inward from the outside of the conveyor belt 101 along the direction of arrow (B) to center the aligned tires 102, and when such centering alignment is complete, the centering device 106 is moved back from the inner position of the conveyor belt 101 to the outer position.

이러한 타이어의 센터링 정렬이 완료된 다음, 이 타이어(102)에 공지의 그리핑 기능을 갖는 픽업로봇이 내려와 타이어(2)를 픽업하여 규격별로 분류하게 된다.After the centering alignment of the tire is completed, the pick-up robot having a known gripping function descends to the tire 102 to pick up the tire 2 and classify it according to the standard.

그러나 상기와 같은 종래 타이어 분류를 위한 컨베이어 벨트의 센터링장치는 컨베이어 벨트 상에서 타이어를 기계적으로 센터링 정렬하게 되면 고무의 탄성에 의해 타이어가 정위치에 정지하지 못하기 됨으로써 픽업로봇으로 타이어를 들어올리는 픽업동작에서 픽업로봇이 타이어를 찍는 현상이 발생하여 타이어의 불량을 발생시킬 우려가 있으며, 이 같은 픽업로봇의 트러블에 의해 작업효율이 떨어질 뿐만 아니라, 타이어 픽업작업 이상 시 작업자가 타이어를 직접 적재함에 따라 작업자의 작업 로드를 증가시켜 근골격계 계통의 산업재해가 발생되는 문제점 등을 지니고 있었다.However, the centering device of the conveyor belt for the conventional tire classification as described above, when the tire is mechanically centered and aligned on the conveyor belt, the picking operation of lifting the tire by the pick-up robot because the tire is not stopped at the correct position by the elasticity of the rubber. The pick-up robot may take the tires and cause the tires to be defective.In addition, the troubles of the pick-up robot may reduce the work efficiency. Increasing the work load of the musculoskeletal system caused an industrial accident.

이에 본 발명은 상기와 같은 종래 문제점을 해결하기 위해 발명된 것으로, 운반중인 타이어를 분류하기 위한 센터링 정렬작업이 정확하게 이루어짐에 따라 픽업로봇으로 들어올리는 픽킹 작업시 이 픽업로봇이 센터링 정렬 불량으로 찍는 형상을 예방하여 타이어의 불량제거와 작업 사이클 타임을 줄이면서 작업효율의 향상 및 작업자의 불필요한 작업로드 등을 감소시킬 타이어 분류용 컨베이어 벨트의 센터링 장치를 제공함에 그 목적이 있다.Therefore, the present invention has been invented to solve the conventional problems as described above, the picking robot is picked up as a poor centering alignment when picking up the pick-up robot according to the centering alignment work to classify the tires being carried accurately It is an object of the present invention to provide a centering apparatus for a conveyor belt for classifying tires, which prevents tires from being removed and reduces work cycle times, thereby improving work efficiency and reducing unnecessary work loads of workers.

상기와 같은 목적을 달성하기 위한 본 발명은 컨베이어 벨트를 타고 운반중인 타이어를 픽업장치로 분류하기 위해 정지시키는 타이어 분류용 컨베이어 벨트의 센터링 장치에 있어서, 상기 컨베이어 벨트의 양 측면에서는 초음파 거리 감지센서들이 각각 배치되고, 이 초음파 거리 감지센서 다음에는 타이어 감지센서와 타이어 스톱퍼를 구비하여 이루어진 것을 특징으로 한다.In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a centering apparatus for a tire sorting conveyor belt that stops to classify a tire being carried on a conveyor belt as a pickup device, wherein ultrasonic distance sensing sensors are provided on both sides of the conveyor belt. Each of them is disposed, and the ultrasonic distance detection sensor is characterized by consisting of a tire detection sensor and a tire stopper.

상기와 같은 본 발명에 따른 타이어 분류용 컨베이어 벨트의 센터링 장치는 타이어 분류 작업시 타이어의 분류를 보다 정확하게 유지할 수 있는 센터링 정렬이 이루어져 픽업장치 이동시 타이어를 찍는 현상을 예방하여 타이어 분량제거와 작업 사이클 타임을 줄여 작업효율 개선 및 작업자의 불필요한 작업로드 감축으로 작업자의 근골격계 계통의 산업재해를 예방하는 효과를 지닌다.The centering device for the tire sorting conveyor belt according to the present invention as described above has a centering alignment to maintain the sorting of tires more accurately during the tire sorting operation, thereby preventing the phenomenon of taking a tire when moving the pickup device, and thus eliminating tire quantity and working cycle time. It has the effect of preventing industrial accidents of workers' musculoskeletal system by improving work efficiency and reducing unnecessary work load of workers.

이하, 본 발명을 첨부된 예시도면을 참고로 상세히 설명한다.Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings, the present invention will be described in detail.

도 1은 본 발명에 따른 타이어 분류용 컨베이어 벨트의 센터링 장치를 나타낸 개략 평면도로서, 본 발명은 도면에 도시된 바와 같이 컨베이어 벨트(1)를 타고 운반중인 타이어(2)를 픽업장치로 분류하기 위해 센터링 정렬시켜 정지시키는 타이어 분류용 컨베이어 벨트의 센터링 장치에 있어서, 상기 컨베이어 벨트(1)의 양 측면에는 초음파 거리 감지센서(3)들이 각각 배치되고, 이 초음파 거리 감지센서(3) 다음에는 타이어 감지센서(4)와 타이어 스톱퍼(5)를 구비하여 이루어진 구조로 되어 있다.1 is a schematic plan view showing a centering apparatus of a conveyor belt for classifying tires according to the present invention. The present invention is to classify a tire 2 being carried on a conveyor belt 1 as a pickup device as shown in the drawing. In the centering apparatus of a tire sorting conveyor belt for aligning and stopping, ultrasonic distance detecting sensors 3 are disposed on both sides of the conveyor belt 1, and after this ultrasonic distance detecting sensor 3, tire sensing is performed. The sensor 4 and the tire stopper 5 are provided.

이러한 구조를 갖는 본 발명의 작동을 설명하면, 타이어(2)를 규격별로 분류하기 위해 낱본의 타이어(2)가 컨베이어 벨트(1)를 타고 화살표 (다)방향으로 이동하게 된다.Referring to the operation of the present invention having such a structure, in order to classify the tire (2) by the standard, the piece of tire (2) is moved in the direction of the arrow (c) by the conveyor belt (1).

상기 컨베이어 벨트(1) 상에서 이송중인 타이어(2)를 초음파 거리 감지센서(3)에 의해 감지되는데, 이 초음파 거리 감지센서(3)는 감지 되어진 값 중 최소 거리값을 얻게 되고 이들 초음파 거리 감지센서(3)의 양쪽 끝 거리값에서 얻어낸 최소 거리값을 빼면, 운반중인 타이어(2)의 외경값을 얻을 수 있으며, 이렇게 얻어진 값은 타이어의 진행방향을 기준으로 이 타이어(2)의 좌우 센터(y축)의 위치좌표를 얻을 수 있다.The ultrasonic distance detecting sensor 3 detects the tire 2 being transported on the conveyor belt 1, and the ultrasonic distance detecting sensor 3 obtains the minimum distance value among the detected values, and these ultrasonic distance detecting sensors By subtracting the minimum distance value obtained from both end distance values of (3), the outer diameter value of the tire 2 being transported can be obtained, and the value thus obtained is based on the left and right centers of the tire 2 based on the traveling direction of the tire ( y-axis) position coordinates can be obtained.

이어 상기 초음파 거리 감지센서(3)를 지난 타이어(2)는 타이어 감지센서(4)에 감지 되어지고 타이어 스톱퍼(5)에 접촉하게 되면, 컨베이어 벨트(1)의 구동이 멈추어 진다.Subsequently, when the tire 2 that has passed the ultrasonic distance sensor 3 is detected by the tire sensor 4 and contacts the tire stopper 5, the driving of the conveyor belt 1 is stopped.

이 같이 상기 초음파 거리 감지센서(3)로부터 얻은 타이어의 외경값을 이용하여 타이어 스톱퍼(5)로부터 x축방향으로 타이어(2)의 센터위치 좌표점을 얻을 수 있으며, 최종적으로 고정위치에 있는 타이어(2)의 센터 좌표점(x축,y축)의 값을 그리퍼(Griper)기능을 갖는 공지의 픽업장치로 전송하여 이 픽업장치가 분류된 타이어를 정확하게 집어 들어올리어 분류 운반시키게 된다.Thus, the center position coordinate point of the tire 2 can be obtained from the tire stopper 5 in the x-axis direction by using the outer diameter value of the tire obtained from the ultrasonic distance detecting sensor 3, and finally the tire in the fixed position. The value of the center coordinate point (x-axis, y-axis) of (2) is transmitted to a known pickup device having a gripper function, so that the pickup device picks up the sorted tires accurately and carries them.
