  • the present invention relates to a loader with a workpiece tilt detection function having a function of detecting the tilt of a workpiece with respect to a reference plane when the workpiece is delivered to the machine tool or when the workpiece is received from the machine tool.
  • the end surface of the machined workpiece is tilted with respect to the center axis. Since a workpiece with such an inclined end surface is a defective product, it is necessary to measure whether the workpiece end surface has an inclination. Conventionally, the tilt of the workpiece end surface is measured by a dedicated tilt measuring instrument after the workpiece is unloaded from the lathe, or by a tilt measuring mechanism provided in the loader when the workpiece is taken out of the lathe spindle by the loader. It was.
  • the dedicated tilt measuring device and the tilt measuring mechanism provided in the loader are mechanically the same, and are perpendicular to the center axis of the workpiece for each predetermined rotation phase while rotating the workpiece once around the center axis.
  • the distance from the reference plane, which is a flat surface, to the end face of the work is measured by a sensor, and the inclination of the work end face is detected from the fluctuation of the sensor detection value.
  • a seating confirmation device for example, Patent Document 1 that confirms that the workpiece is correctly seated on the spindle chuck, or the workpiece is gripped in the correct posture by the spindle chuck. It has been proposed to mount a work chucking failure detection device (for example, Patent Document 2) that detects absence of the load on a loader.
  • the conventional dedicated tilt measuring instrument and loader tilt measuring mechanism require a workpiece to rotate once before the measurement is completed, so that the measuring time is longer. For example, a measurement time of about 1 second was required.
  • the dedicated inclination measuring device is installed separately from the machine tool and the loader, there is a problem that an extra expense is required and a space for the inclination measuring device is required separately.
  • the loader tilt measuring mechanism is provided with a mechanism for rotating the workpiece on the loader head, which makes the loader head complicated and large. For this reason, the output of the drive source of the loader must be increased, resulting in an increase in cost.
  • the seating confirmation device disclosed in Patent Document 1 performs seating confirmation by detecting the position of the workpiece in the central axis direction using a displacement sensor provided on the central axis of the loader chuck, and cannot detect the tilt of the workpiece. .
  • the workpiece chucking failure detection device of Patent Document 2 is provided at a position different from the loader chuck, and after the workpiece is transferred from the loader chuck to the spindle chuck, the workpiece and the workpiece gripped by the spindle chuck The loader is moved so as to face the chucking failure detection device, and the workpiece tilt detection is detected by the workpiece chucking failure detection device. Therefore, even if the workpiece tilt detection itself does not take time, it takes extra time to move the loader from the workpiece transfer to the workpiece tilt detection. In particular, in the described example, since the inclination detecting means is a proximity sensor, it may be difficult to accurately detect the inclination of the workpiece.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide a loader with a workpiece tilt detection function that can accurately detect the tilt of a workpiece in a short time, and is compact and can be manufactured at low cost.
  • the loader with a workpiece tilt detection function of the present invention is provided with a detector for detecting the tilt of the end surface of the workpiece at the position facing the loader chuck.
  • This detector is provided at three locations around the loader chuck central axis so as to be movable forward and backward in a direction parallel to the loader chuck central axis, and the forward and backward members whose tips contact the end surface of the workpiece indirectly or directly, and these forward and backward movements, respectively.
  • the detector operates as follows. That is, when the workpiece is delivered to the machine tool or the like, the three advancing and retracting members provided at three positions around the loader chuck central axis are pushed by the workpiece end surface according to the inclination of the workpiece end surface with respect to the reference plane, Advancing and retreating in a direction parallel to.
  • the reference plane is, for example, a plane orthogonal to the loader chuck central axis.
  • a displacement sensor detects a relative position of another advance / retreat member with respect to one advance / retreat member. By providing two such displacement sensors, the relative positions of the three advancing and retracting members can be measured.
  • the detection value comparison means detects the inclination of the end face of the workpiece by comparing the detection values of the two displacement sensors.
  • each of the advance / retreat members can be contacted indirectly or directly with the end face of the work.
  • the relative position of the advancing / retreating member is measured, and the inclination of the end face of the workpiece can be detected instantaneously.
  • the required detection range of the displacement sensor may be narrower than the method of individually measuring the advance / retreat positions of the three advance / retreat members. Because, when the workpiece is delivered, the three advancing and retracting members are moved together by being pushed by the end surface of the workpiece, but the amount of movement that these three advancing and retracting members have moved by the same distance does not affect the inclination of the end surface of the workpiece, but affects the inclination. In order to detect only the difference in the amount of movement, the required detection range of the displacement sensor may be narrow. Therefore, a displacement sensor with high detection accuracy can be used at a relatively low price, and high-precision inclination detection can be performed. Even if the dimensions and shape of the workpiece are different, the required detection range of the displacement sensor does not change much, so it can be used for various workpieces. Furthermore, if the relative position is measured, only two displacement sensors are required, and the cost can be reduced.
  • Detecting the inclination of the end face of the workpiece is performed, for example, when the workpiece is delivered to the machine tool or when the workpiece is received from the machine tool. In any case, since the inclination of the end face of the workpiece can be detected instantaneously as described above, the seating confirmation of the workpiece with respect to the chuck of the spindle and the inspection of the processed workpiece can be performed without lowering the machining efficiency.
  • the two displacement sensors may be attached to one of the three advance / retreat members, respectively, and detect the relative positions of the other two advance / retreat members with respect to the advance / retreat member.
  • the relative position can be easily detected by attaching the displacement sensor to one advance / retreat member.
  • the detection value comparison means compares the detection values of the two displacement sensors and compares the detection values of the two displacement sensors with a predetermined reference value to detect the inclination of the end face of the workpiece. You may make it do. By simply comparing the detection values of the two displacement sensors, the inclination based on the direction in which the two displacement sensors are arranged can be detected, but the inclination based on the direction intersecting the arrangement direction cannot be detected. In addition to comparing the detection values of the two displacement sensors with each other, by comparing the detection values of the two displacement sensors with a predetermined reference value, it is possible to detect both inclinations. The inclination of W in all directions can be detected.
