Abstract
Description
内袋の破損は、内袋の真空度の低下やワークの脱落等が生じたことによって、初めて知得されるため、内袋の破損が判明した場合には、当該把持装置が設置されている生産ラインの停止を招来する。
しかし、把持装置は、機械部品のように油分や切粉等が付着しているワークを把持するための用途に使用されることがあり、外袋に汚れが付着することがある。そのような状態では、外袋が破損しているか否かを目視によって確認することが難しい。
把持部2は、ワークを直接把持するための部位であり、駆動部3、複数の爪部4・5、及び、複数の当接部材6を備えている。
尚、各爪部4・5の形状は、把持対象となるワークの形状及び大きさや、各スライダ部3a・3bのストローク量等を考慮して設定する。
爪部4は、支持部4aがスライダ部3aに対して固定されている。そして、制御装置7により、駆動部3を作動させてスライダ部3aをスライドさせて、各挟圧部4b・4bを、スライダ部3aのスライド方向に沿って往復動させる(図1参照)。
爪部5は、支持部5aがスライダ部3bに対して固定されている。そして、制御装置7により、駆動部3を作動させてスライダ部3bをスライドさせて、挟圧部5bを、スライダ部3bのスライド方向に沿って往復動させる(図1参照)。
真空排気設備8は、当接部材6を硬化及び軟化させるための手段を構成するものであり、真空ポンプ8a、真空配管8b・8b、及び、電磁弁8cを備えている。そして、各当接部材6の袋状部に、各真空配管8b・8bが接続されている。
尚、本実施形態では、真空排気設備8に真空ポンプ8aが備えられる場合を例示しているが、真空ポンプ8a以外の排気手段(例えば、エジェクター等)を備える構成とすることも可能である。
また、当接部材の硬化及び軟化を実現させるための手段は、必ずしも真空排気設備である必要はなく、当接部材の硬化及び軟化を実現することができるものを採用し得る。
そして、真空排気設備8を作動させることによって、当接部材6をワークの外面形状に対応した形状で硬化させることができる。これにより、ワークの外面形状に対応した堅固な態様の当接部材6を形成できる。
また、ワークは種々の形状を有するため、安定的な把持状態を実現するためには、爪部4・5においてワークと当接する部位の形状をワークの形状に対応させる必要がある。
このため、把持装置1では、把持部2における挟持部である挟圧部4b・4b及び挟圧部5bのワークとの当接部位において、それぞれ当接部材6を付設している。
このような構成により、内袋11が、繰返し使用によって摩耗したり、或いは、ワークに付着した切粉等によって切創したりすることを、簡易に、かつ、確実に防止することができ、内袋11の製品寿命を延ばすことができる。
本実施形態における袋体11aは、ニトリルゴム(NBR)製の部材であり、生ゴムを加熱及びプレス成形して箱型(五面体)に成形した第一のゴム部材と、シート状の第二のゴム部材を用いて作成される。
具体的には、箱型の第一のゴム部材における開口部分にシート状の第二のゴム部材を加硫溶着により貼り付けて、箱体(六面体)状にすることによって、気密性及び弾力性を有する袋体11aを得る構成としている。
また、袋体11aにおける一つの面の略中央部には孔部11fが形成されており、該孔部11fに、袋体11aの内外を連通するための部材である接続口11bが配設されている。
接続口11bは、封止部材11d・11dを介挿して、ナット11cを螺合して締結することによって、孔部11fの気密性を確保しつつ該孔部11fに付設されている。
また、接続口11bには、真空配管8bが接続されており、接続口11bの袋体11aに内包される端部において、フィルター11eが配設されている。
内袋11は、袋体11aの内部に、粒状物12を充填することによって、柔軟に変形できる態様と、形状を堅固に保持する態様の、相反する二つの態様を一つの部材で実現することを可能にしている。
接続口11bにフィルター11eを設けることで、粒状物12が接続口11bから排出されることを防止する構成としている。
粒状物12が塊状となり硬化している状態で、袋体11aの内部に再び空気を導入すると、袋体11aの内容積に対する粒状物12の体積比率が減少し、粒状物12を構成する各粒子間の隙間が増大して各粒子同士の係留が解消されるようになり、粒状物12の流動性が増大するとともに軟化する。
袋体13aは、耐摩耗性及び耐切創性を有する素材であるアラミド繊維製の部材であり、アラミド繊維製の略長方形の二枚のシート状部材を重ね合わせるとともに、三方の各辺部を縫合して、袋状に形成した部材である。袋体13aの内部の大きさは、内袋11を変位可能に収容することができる程度の大きさである。
また、袋体13aの縫合していない開放側の辺部近傍において、外袋13を吊設するための部位となる係留部13b・13b等が付設されている。本実施形態では、係留部13b・13bとして金属製のハトメを採用する簡易な構成としている。
アラミド繊維は、耐摩耗性及び耐切創性に優れた素材であるため、内袋11が摩耗及び切創しないように保護することができる。
また、アラミド繊維は、ワークの形状に倣う十分な可撓性を備えているため、外袋13内に収容した内袋11を、外袋13を介して接したワークの形状に精度良く倣わせることができる。このため、アラミド繊維は、外袋13(袋体13a)を形成する素材として好適である。
この際、アラミド繊維は、織物や編物、不織布等の任意の形態で使用することができるが、十分な可撓性と耐久性を両立するために、織物の形態で使用されることが好ましい。
即ち、当接部材6は、内袋11と外袋13を別体とする構成によって、内袋と外袋を一体化した二重構造の袋体を有する当接部材に比して、より堅固な把持状態を実現するように改良がなされている。さらに、当接部材6は、内袋11が損傷した場合には、内袋11のみを交換することができ、また、外袋13が損傷した場合には、外袋13のみを交換することができるため、経済性にも優れている。
そして、当接部材6(外袋13)を係留部13b・13bに吊設した状態で、ボルト4d・4dにワッシャー15・15を介してナット14・14を締結して、挟圧部4bに対して簡易かつ確実に当接部材6を付設する構成としている。
このような構成により、当接部材6の交換を容易としている。これにより、当接部材6の摩耗及び切創が予測されるような実際の生産ラインへの導入を容易に実現することができる。
しかし、外袋13は、ワークと直接に接触するため、ワークに付着している切削油や切粉等による汚れが生じることがある。このため、当接部材6に破れが生じていないかどうかを検査するとき、目視では汚れによって破れを検出することが難しい場合があり、外袋13に生じている破れを見逃してしまう可能性があった。
既述の通り、内袋11を構成するNBR製の袋体11aには、粒状物12が充填されている。
また、外袋13は、アラミド繊維からなる袋体13aの裏面(内袋11に接する側の面)に裏地13cを備えている。
裏地13cは、膜状のPET(ポリエチレンテレフタラート)であり、袋体13aの裏面にPETを塗布して、袋体13aの裏面を被覆する構成としている。
他に、発光部16を構成する材料(発光部材)としては、紫外線(ブラックライト)を照射することによって発光する部材(蛍光部材)がある。蛍光部材は、蛍光物質を塗料として使用する態様や、その塗料を樹脂に混ぜてシート状や糸状の成形品として使用する態様等で用いることができる。
このような配置状況において用いる発光部16は、発光部材をシート状に構成する態様や、シート状の基材に糸状の発光部材を織り込む態様、或いは、シート状の基材に塗料状の発光部材を塗布する態様、等を採用することができる。
第一実施形態は、外袋13の内側に発光部16を備えることで、外袋13に破れ部20が生じたときに、破れ部20を通じて発光部16が視認できる状態で現れるように構成されている。
当接部材6に破れ部20が生じている場合、破れ部20を通じて発光部16に紫外線が到達すると、発光部16が発光するため、当接部材6の表面上に破れ部20の姿が浮かび上がってくるようになり、容易に破れ部20の存在を把握することが可能になる。
当接部材6に破れ部20が生じている場合、破れ部20を通じて発光部16には外界の光が到達し蓄光されるため、当接部材6を暗所に配置すると、発光する発光部16により、当接部材6の表面上に破れ部20の姿が浮かび上がってくるようになり、容易に破れ部20の存在を把握することが可能になる。
図9(b)に示す第二実施形態では、発光部16を外袋13の裏地13cの表面(内袋11に対向する面)に配置している。
このような配置状況において用いる発光部16は、発光部材をシート状に構成して裏地13cに貼り付ける態様や、裏地13cに糸状の発光部材を織り込む態様、或いは、裏地13cに塗料状の発光部材を塗布する態様、等を採用することができる。
例えば、PETと発光部材(蓄光顔料或いは蛍光物質)を混合したものを、袋体13aの裏面に塗布することによって、裏地13c自体を発光部16とすることができる。
このような配置状況において用いる発光部16は、発光部材をシート状に構成して袋体11aの表面に貼り付ける態様や、袋体11aに塗料状の発光部材を塗布する態様、等を採用することができる。
例えば、NBRに発光部材(蓄光顔料或いは蛍光物質)を混合させたものを用いて袋体11aを作成することによって、袋体11a自体を発光部16とすることができる。
このような構成により、例えば、外袋13の裏地13cの表面に配置された発光部16が切れてしまい、破れ部20に外袋13側の発光部16が現れなくなるような場合であっても、内袋11の袋体11aの表面に残されている発光部16によって、破れ部20を浮かび上がらせることができるようになる。
