[0031] It should be noted that the tooling box storage and transfer mechanism structure of the automatic box loading, transportation and recycling and stacking device of the present invention can include any number of workstations. This embodiment only takes four workstations as an example for illustration.

[0032] The working principle of the automatic box loading, transportation and recycling palletizing device of the present invention is as follows:

[0033] 1. The incoming material conveyor line 5 is controlled by a remote control signal to transport the incoming materials to the device in batches. The first batch of incoming materials is received by the incoming material tray 24 of the first double-step ascending and descending mechanism 8. The incoming material tray 24 moves downward along the guide rail until it reaches the position corresponding to the empty tooling box on the empty box storage bin 18 where no incoming materials are installed. At this time, the box loading mechanism 2 starts to work and moves to the upper part of the position where the incoming material tray 24 is located. The first picking mechanism 20 on the box loading mechanism 2 moves downward under the action of the cylinder piston, absorbs the incoming materials through the suction cup, and loads them into the empty tooling box. The box loading is completed once, the first double-step ascending and descending mechanism 8 and the incoming material tray 24 return to their original positions, and the incoming material conveyor line 5 delivers the next batch of incoming materials to the device to start the next cycle.

[0034] 2. When one box loading is completed, the full-load shift mechanism 30 on the box loading mechanism 2 works. Under the action of the cylinder at the end of the full-load shift mechanism 30, the full-loaded work box after box loading is completed is pushed into the full-load storage bin 17.

[0035] 3. When the system detects that the number of fully loaded tooling boxes in the fully loaded storage bin 17 reaches the storage upper limit, the station rotation mechanism 19 on the tooling box storage and transfer mechanism 4 drives the tooling box storage and transfer mechanism 4 to rotate one station angle. At this time, the empty box recovery and fully loaded removal mechanism 3 works, and the fully loaded tooling boxes in the fully loaded storage bin 17 are transferred to the fully loaded removal conveyor line 6 through the second picking mechanism 21 in cooperation with the second double-step up and down mechanism 9, thereby realizing the automatic transportation of the fully loaded tooling boxes.

[0036] 4. After completing step 3, the empty box recovery and full load removal mechanism 3 continues to recover the empty boxes to the empty box storage bin 18 through the second picking mechanism 21 and the empty box recovery conveyor line 7 in cooperation with the second double-step ascending and descending mechanism 9, thereby realizing the empty box recovery work.

[0037] After all the fully loaded tool boxes in the fully loaded storage bin 17 under this station are moved out and the empty box storage bin is filled with empty tool boxes, the tool box storage and transfer mechanism works and the above cycle is repeated.
