One end of the main body 20 is provided with a rolling incense forming device 30, which is located at the end of the displacement path of the rolling device 10, thereby allowing the rolling incense A formed by the rolling device 10 to be picked up and placed. The main body 20 is further provided with a placement mesh plate 40, which is lower than the picking and placing device 10 and located on the displacement path of the picking and placing device 10. The picking and placing device 10 includes an automatically operable sliding base 11, a lifting middle seat 12, a picking and placing seat 13, and a pushing plate 14. The sliding base 11 is disposed on the main body 20 and can move back and forth between the incense rolling forming device 30 and the placement mesh plate 40. The lifting middle seat 12 is disposed below the sliding base 11 and can be lifted and moved, with its front end facing... A connecting plate 121 is provided to the incense rolling forming device 30. The pick-and-place seat 13 is movably mounted on the bottom of the lifting middle seat 12. The front end of the pick-and-place seat 13 has at least one shovel plate 131 extending forward from the bottom. The shovel plate 131 can retract into the lower part of the lifting middle seat 12 as the pick-and-place seat 13 moves. There is a gap 132 between the shovel plate 131 and the bottom of the pick-and-place seat 13. At least one pick-and-place cloth 15 is provided in a front-to-back surrounding manner. One end of the pick-and-place cloth 15 passes over a roller 16 from bottom to top and then through the gap 132. Finally, the pick-and-place cloth 15 is... The two ends are connected and assembled on the outside of the connecting plate 121 of the lifting middle seat 12, so that the pick-up and put-down cloth 15 can move back and forth with the pick-up and put-down seat 13 and have a rolling pick-up and put-down state relative to the shovel plate 131, further achieving the pick-up and put-down operation of the incense roll A. The push plate 14 is assembled at the front end of the lifting middle seat 12 in a vertically movable manner. When the incense roll A is placed on the placement mesh plate 40 and the shovel plate 131 is retracted into the bottom of the lifting middle seat 12, the push plate 14 can move down to the placement mesh plate 40 and use the sliding base 11 to push the incense roll A to be arranged neatly.
[0012] As shown in Figures 1, 2, and 4, the lower surface of the sliding base 11 is provided with at least two slide rail seats 111 to slide along two linear slide rails 21 preset on both sides of the main body 20. The sliding base 11 is provided with a through hole 112 and a first drive cylinder 113 in the center. The first drive cylinder 113 is connected to the lifting middle seat 12 through the through hole 112 to further control the lifting displacement of the lifting middle seat 12. The sliding base 11 is provided with four guide seats 114 through the upper and lower surfaces. The lifting middle seat 12 is provided with four guide uprights 122 and connected to the four guide seats 114 to ensure the lifting stability of the lifting middle seat 12.
[0013] As shown in Figure 4, the lower surface of the lifting middle seat 12 is provided with a plurality of linear guide rails 123 in parallel, and the upper surface of the pick-up and place seat 13 is provided with a plurality of guide rail seats 133 in parallel and sliding in engagement with the linear guide rails 123. A second drive cylinder 134 is provided between the lifting middle seat 12 and the pick-up and place seat 13, and the pick-up and place seat 13 is driven to move back and forth along the linear guide rails 123 through the second drive cylinder 134.
[0014] As shown in Figures 5 and 7, the shovel plate 131 has a horizontal section 1311 and a downward inclined section 1312, and a plurality of pick-up and put-down cloths 15 are spaced apart on its surface. The two ends of the pick-up and put-down cloths 15 are fixed by two clamping plates 151 and then assembled on the outside of the connecting upright plate 121. The connecting upright plate 121 has a plurality of longitudinal elongated holes 1211 corresponding to the number and position of the pick-up and put-down cloths 15, and a groove 152 is also provided in the center of the clamping plate 151 for aligning with the longitudinal elongated holes 1211. Furthermore, a combination block 124 is provided on the lower surface of the front end of the lifting seat 12. The connecting upright plate 121 is equipped with a plurality of limiting shafts. After the bolt 1212 passes through the longitudinal elongated hole 1211, it is assembled with the assembly block 124. The longitudinal elongated hole 1211 can move up and down along the limiting shaft bolt 1212, thereby movably assembling the connecting upright plate 121 on the assembly block 124. At the same time, it achieves the purpose of movable lifting and lowering of the clamping plate 151 and its connecting upright plate 121 of the cloth 15. When the shovel plate 131 of the pick-up and place seat 13 extends and retracts, due to the height difference between the horizontal section 1311 and the downward inclined section 1312 of the shovel plate 131, the cloth 15 will be pulled up and down slightly along the limiting shaft bolt 1212 when it is rolled up.
[0015] As shown in Figures 5 and 6, the lower surface of the pick-and-place seat 13 is provided with a plurality of rollers 16 and a plurality of U-shaped frames 161 at the rear end of the shovel plate 131 corresponding to the number of pick-and-place cloths 15. Each U-shaped frame 161 is assembled with one roller 16, and each U-shaped frame 161 is screwed and tightened into two pairs of pre-set, opposite long holes 135 on the pick-and-place seat 13, so that the U-shaped frame 161 can be slightly adjusted along the two pairs of long holes 135 to achieve the tightness adjustment of the pick-and-place cloth 15.
[0016] As shown in Figure 4, the push plate 14 is mounted on the lifting middle seat 12 with a third drive cylinder 141, and the push plate 14 is moved up and down through the third drive cylinder 141.
[0017] Regarding the actual operation and use of its structure, please refer to Figure 1 in conjunction with Figures 8 to 13. Before the incense rolling forming device 30 forms incense roll A, the pick-and-place device 10 is positioned above the placement mesh plate 40, and the pick-and-place seat 13 is moved inward by the second drive cylinder 134, so that the shovel plate 131 is completely retracted below the lifting middle seat 12. When the incense rolling forming device 30 forms incense roll A, the pick-and-place device 10 will first pass through the sliding base 11 along the linear slide rail 21 of the main body 20 to the incense rolling forming device. The incense roll forming device 30 is displaced in the 30 direction and stops in front of it. Then, the second drive cylinder 134 pushes the pick-and-place seat 13 towards the incense roll forming device 30, so that the shovel plate 131 gradually extends and pushes the pick-and-place cloth 15 forward. When the lower inclined section 1312 of the shovel plate 131 contacts the incense roll A and continues to extend, the pick-and-place cloth 15 is pushed by the shovel plate 131 to form a rolling state from the outside to the inside. Thus, the incense roll A is rolled and transported along the shovel plate 131 through the pick-and-place cloth 15 to achieve the purpose of picking up the incense roll A.
[0018] Continuing from Figures 14 to 17, after the shovel 131 picks up the incense roll A, it moves along the two linear slide rails 21 from the sliding base 11 towards the placement mesh plate 40. After stopping, the first drive cylinder 113 lowers the lifting seat 12, so that the front end of the shovel 131 is against the placement mesh plate 40. Then, the second drive cylinder 134 drives the pick-and-place seat 13 to retract inward, so that the shovel 131 gradually retracts below the lifting seat 12. At this time, as the shovel 131 retracts inward, the pick-and-place cloth 15 is relaxed, so that the pick-and-place cloth 15 forms a rolling state from the inside out, thereby gradually rolling and transporting the incense roll A along the shovel 131 towards the placement mesh plate 40, achieving the purpose of placing the incense roll A. Then, the incense roll A is laid flat on the placement mesh plate 40 for air drying and curing.
[0019] As shown in Figures 17 to 21, when the incense roll A is placed on the placement mesh plate 40 and the shovel plate 131 is fully retracted under the lifting seat 12, the third drive cylinder 141 drives the push plate 14 to descend and contact the surface of the placement mesh plate 40. Then, the sliding base 11 moves along the two linear slide rails 21 and pushes a whole row of incense rolls A to align. The placement mesh plate 40 can provide a plurality of rows of incense rolls A, and the push plate 14 neatly arranges the plurality of rows of incense rolls A. After the incense rolls A are placed on the plate, the placement mesh plate 40 can be removed from the main body 20, and another placement mesh plate 40 can be placed for the next round of incense roll A production and handling.
[0020] The following benefits can be obtained by using the structure of the above specific embodiment: The picking and placing device 10 of this invention, through the planar design of the shovel plate 131 and the rolling transport of the picking and placing cloth 15, can not only avoid deformation of the incense roll A during the picking and placing process before it is cured, but also prevent the incense roll A from sticking to the shovel plate 131, so that the incense roll A can be picked and placed more stably, greatly improving the picking and placing efficiency and the integrity of the incense roll A, which is a practical improvement.
[0021] In summary, the present invention has indeed achieved a breakthrough in structural design and has improved inventive content. At the same time, it can achieve industrial applicability and progress. Furthermore, the present invention has not been published in any publication and has novelty. Therefore, it meets the relevant provisions of the Patent Law. Thus, an invention patent application is filed in accordance with the law. I respectfully request that the Examining Committee of the Patent Office grant a legal patent right. I am deeply grateful.
[0022] The above description is only one preferred embodiment of the present invention and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention; that is, all equivalent changes and modifications made in accordance with the claims of the present invention should still fall within the scope of the present invention.
