Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of ticket and card equipment, and in particular relates to an automatic ticket and card packaging machine. Background Art

[0002] Tickets refer to card-shaped labels that serve as identification, such as hangtags, cards and woven labels with RFID identification functions used in the clothing retail field, such as cards with RFID functions. Tickets are generally packaged in the form of stacking and bundling. If they need to be processed / tested / coded, they need to be input into the relevant detection and coding equipment in single form, and then stacked and bundled after the equipment outputs them;

[0003] In the prior art, the detection and coding equipment usually transfers the ticket card through vacuum belt adsorption, and sets a single, two or more drop positions on the transmission path to realize counting, classification and other functions. The ticket card falls on the receiving platform below or in a simple ticket receiving box at the drop position, in an irregular stacking state, and needs to be picked up and aligned manually, and then bundled by other equipment. Manual operation is time-consuming and labor-intensive, with high labor intensity and uneven quality. For example, the Chinese utility model patent document with patent number: ZL201620935949.5 discloses a "hard card stacking device", including: a base, a first side plate and a second side plate connected to the base; the side of the first side plate is connected to the side of the second side plate, and the inner side of the first side plate is vertically arranged with the inner side of the second side plate; the top surface of the base is tilted downward toward the second side plate. The device can only realize the simple collection of tickets, and the collected tickets are still in a scattered state, requiring manual secondary operation. Summary of the invention

[0004] The main technical problem solved by the present invention is to provide an automatic ticket packaging machine, which collects tickets with a ticket receiving box. When the ticket receiving box is displaced, it can synchronously complete the alignment of the tickets in one direction through a first push rod; the alignment of the tickets in another direction is completed by the movement of a robot before the robot grabs them. After the robot grabs them, they are put into a strapping machine for strapping and packaging, and finally put into a material receiving bin. The structure of the device is streamlined, the movement of the mechanism is streamlined, and it can effectively save costs.

[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, a technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows:

[0006] An automatic ticket packing machine comprises a ticket receiving mechanism for collecting tickets into a stacked state, a grabbing mechanism for grabbing the stacked tickets, a bundling machine for bundling the stacked tickets, and a material receiving bin;

[0007] The ticket receiving mechanism comprises a ticket receiving box, which is movable and has a ticket receiving position and a grabbing position, and the grabbing position is provided with a first push rod, and when the ticket receiving box moves to the grabbing position, the first push rod abuts against one side of the ticket card in the ticket receiving box to achieve the alignment of the ticket card in one direction;

[0008] The grabbing mechanism includes a slide module and a manipulator, the manipulator is provided with a second push rod, and before the manipulator grabs the stacked tickets, the second push rod pushes the other side of the tickets in the ticket receiving box to achieve the alignment of the tickets in another direction;

[0009] The manipulator is installed on the slide module, and the manipulator can move to the grabbing position, the strapping machine and the material receiving bin through the slide module.

[0010] Furthermore, the ticket receiving box includes a first box wall, a second box wall, a third box wall and a box bottom which are surrounded by at least three sides, wherein the first box wall and the third box wall are arranged relative to each other, and the first box wall or the third box wall is provided with a floating wall, and the floating wall can reciprocate in a direction perpendicular to its wall surface, and the first push rod abuts against the floating wall, thereby pushing the stacked tickets against the first box wall and the floating wall to achieve alignment in one direction, the depth of the ticket receiving box is variable, and the box bottom can gradually descend as the height of the ticket stacking increases, and rise and reset after the ticket is taken away.

[0011] Furthermore, the first box wall and the third box wall are connected to a bidirectional lead screw, and the distance between the first box wall and the third box wall is synchronously adjusted by the bidirectional lead screw to accommodate tickets of different sizes.

[0012] Furthermore, it comprises a fourth box wall, the fourth box wall has an opening for the manipulator to extend into, the box bottom is fork-shaped, and the fork-shaped notch allows the manipulator to extend into.

[0013] Furthermore, the slide module includes a horizontal slide and a vertical slide, and the manipulator is installed on the vertical slide.

[0014] Furthermore, the manipulator includes a first finger and a second finger, the first finger and the second finger can be moved closer or farther away, and the second push rod is fixedly connected to the first finger or the second finger.

[0015] Furthermore, the manipulator is capable of rotating, and the rotation axis of the rotation is parallel to the sliding direction of the horizontal slide.

[0018] Furthermore, the strapping machine and the material receiving bin are respectively located on both sides of the ticket receiving mechanism.

[0019] Beneficial effects of the present invention:

[0020] The alignment of the ticket card is completed by the first push rod and the second push rod. The action of the first push rod is achieved by the relative friction between the ticket receiving box and the first push rod when the ticket receiving box moves. Therefore, only one driving mechanism is needed, that is, this driving mechanism simultaneously completes the displacement of the ticket receiving box and the top alignment of the ticket card in one direction; the action of the second push rod is completed by the manipulator, that is, before the manipulator moves to the ticket receiving box to grab the ticket card, the second push rod first completes the top alignment of the ticket card in the other direction, and then performs the grabbing action. After grabbing, the ticket card is put into the bundling machine for bundling and packaging, and finally put into the receiving bin. The structure of the device is streamlined, the action of the mechanism is streamlined, and it can effectively save costs.

[0021] The ticket receiving box is provided with a first elastic member and a second elastic member, which can achieve buffering in two directions of the ticket card to prevent the ticket card from being bent or damaged when it is pressed against the top; the strapping machine and the material receiving bin are respectively located on both sides of the ticket receiving mechanism. This design makes it unnecessary to turn over and change direction for bundling and unloading after the grabbing mechanism grabs the ticket card, which simplifies the grabbing action of the equipment and minimizes the size of the equipment.

[0048] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings so that the advantages and features of the present invention can be more easily understood by those skilled in the art, thereby making a clearer and more definite definition of the protection scope of the present invention.

[0049] Embodiment: A ticket and card automatic packaging machine, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown: it includes a ticket receiving mechanism 2 for collecting tickets 9 into a stacked state, a grabbing mechanism 3 for grabbing the stacked tickets, a bundling machine 4 and a receiving bin 5 for bundling the stacked tickets. The ticket receiving mechanism, the grabbing mechanism, the bundling machine and the receiving bin are all installed on a frame 8. After the tickets have passed through the processes of other equipment, they fall into the ticket receiving mechanism from the dropping position of the conveying device 6. The tickets are sorted and aligned during the movement of the ticket receiving mechanism and the grabbing mechanism. The tickets are then grabbed by the grabbing mechanism and placed in the bundling machine for bundling, and finally placed in the receiving bin.

[0050] The ticket receiving mechanism comprises a ticket receiving box 21, which is movable and has a ticket receiving position 21A and a grabbing position 21B;

[0051] The grabbing mechanism includes a slide module, the manipulator is installed on the slide module and can realize biaxial movement of the X axis (or Y axis) and the Z axis through the slide module, and the manipulator can move to the grabbing position, the strapping machine and the receiving bin through the slide module;

[0052] In this embodiment, the robot is installed on a vertical slide.

[0053] The strapping machine and the material receiving bin are respectively located on both sides of the ticket receiving mechanism; the strapping machine (or strapping machine) in this embodiment is an existing device, and the placement direction (position) of the product on the strapping machine for strapping is fixed, so the settings on both sides enable the grabbing mechanism to grab the ticket card for strapping and unloading without turning over, which simplifies the grabbing action of the equipment and minimizes the size of the equipment.

[0054] In this embodiment, there are two groups of ticket receiving mechanisms, which work in turns to improve the efficiency of ticket collection. Of course, the number of ticket receiving mechanisms can be set to any group;

[0055] The ticket receiving mechanism has the function of arranging and aligning the ticket card, and completes the alignment of the ticket card in two directions through the first push rod 22 and the second push rod 32 respectively.

[0056] The first push rod 22 is arranged at the grabbing position. When the ticket receiving box moves to the grabbing position, the first push rod abuts against one side of the ticket card in the ticket receiving box to achieve the alignment of the ticket card in one direction.

[0057] The grabbing mechanism includes a manipulator 31, and the second push rod 32 is arranged on the manipulator. Before the manipulator grabs the stacked tickets, the stacked tickets are pushed by the second push rod to make them abut against the second box wall and the second push rod to achieve alignment of the stacked tickets in another direction. In simple terms, the action of the second push rod is completed by the manipulator, that is, before the manipulator moves to the ticket receiving box to grab the tickets, the second push rod first completes the abutment alignment of the tickets in another direction, and then performs the grabbing action. The detailed structure of the first push rod and the second push rod is shown below.

[0058] The specific structure of the ticket receiving box is as follows: Figures 4 to 7 As shown: the ticket receiving box comprises a first box wall 211, a second box wall 212, a third box wall 213 and a box bottom 215 which are surrounded by at least three sides, and the first box wall, the second box wall and the third box wall are connected to the ticket box base 2153;

[0059] like Figure 7 As shown: the bottom of the first box wall and the bottom of the third box wall are both provided with an adjusting slider 231, and the two adjusting sliders are respectively threadedly connected to the two ends of the bidirectional screw 232. Through the left-handed thread and the right-handed thread at both ends of the bidirectional screw, the distance between the first box wall and the third box wall can be synchronously adjusted to accommodate tickets of different sizes. Since the adjustment of the distance is not a frequent operation, the bidirectional screw in this embodiment is operated by manual rotation, and the equipment cost can be controlled, but it is not limited to this.

[0060] In the ticket receiving box, the first box wall and the third box wall are arranged opposite to each other. Figure 6 or Figure 7 As shown: the first box wall or the third box wall is provided with a floating wall 2131, and the floating wall can reciprocate in a direction perpendicular to its wall surface. When the floating wall moves toward the inside of the ticket receiving box, it abuts against one side of the stacked tickets in the ticket receiving box to align them. The floating wall can be provided with a separate driving member to drive its movement;

[0061] In this embodiment, the floating wall is arranged on the third box wall, and its specific structure is as follows: Figure 8As shown: the floating wall is fixedly connected to one end of the floating guide column 2133, and is slidably connected to the fixed wall 2132 through the floating guide column. The lower end of the fixed wall is fixedly connected to the adjusting slider 231. The floating wall is arranged in parallel with the fixed wall, and the floating wall can reciprocate in a direction perpendicular to its wall surface. Furthermore, the other end of the floating guide column is fixedly connected to the push plate 2134, and a return spring 2135 is provided between the push plate and the fixed wall. When the push force of the floating wall is withdrawn, the floating wall can return to its original position.

[0062] like Figures 4 to 8 As shown: the grabbing position is provided with a first push rod 22, and when the ticket receiving box moves to the grabbing position, the first push rod abuts against the floating wall, thereby pushing the stacked tickets against the first box wall and the floating wall to achieve alignment in one direction;

[0063] More specifically, when the ticket receiving box of this embodiment moves to the grabbing position, the first push rod abuts against the abutting push plate 2134, and the abutting push plate drives the floating wall to move. When the abutting state is cancelled, the abutting push plate is reset under the action of the reset spring 2135, thereby driving the floating wall to reset, so as to align the ticket card next time.

[0064] The first push rod alignment is completed when the ticket receiving box moves to the grabbing position. The action of the first push rod is achieved by the relative conflict between the ticket receiving box and the first push rod when the ticket receiving box moves. Therefore, only one driving mechanism is needed, that is, this driving mechanism simultaneously completes the displacement of the ticket receiving box and the top alignment of the ticket card. It can be imagined that the top alignment of the ticket card can also adopt the mechanism design of the first push rod in both directions. At this time, the displacement of the ticket receiving box can be:

[0065] 1. Use multiple sets of slide rails to enable it to slide in two directions, and set first push rods in two directions (not shown);

[0066] 2. The inclined slide rail design is adopted, and the ticket receiving box moves along its diagonal direction. The first push rods are arranged in two directions. At this time, the first push rods will form an angle with the box wall of the ticket receiving box when they abut against it (not shown in the figure).

[0067] This embodiment uses a first push rod in one direction and another alignment method in the other direction, which can simplify the device structure and reduce the size of the device;

[0068] However, regardless of the number of push rods and how the tracks are arranged, as long as the mechanism of the mobile ticket receiving box and the first push rod is adopted, it is regarded as an equivalent structural transformation of the present invention and is included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.

[0069] The ticket receiving box is as follows Figure 6As shown: it also includes a fourth box wall 214, the fourth box wall has an opening 2141 for the manipulator to extend into, and the manipulator passes through the opening to grab the ticket card;

[0070] In this embodiment, the opening is located in the middle of the ticket receiving box. At this time, the robot arm can clamp the middle part of the ticket card when it reaches in to grab it, thereby improving the grabbing stability.

[0071] like Fig. 9 As shown: the second box wall 212 is provided with a first elastic member 2121, one end of the first elastic member abuts against the second box wall, so that the second box wall can elastically move along the vertical direction of its wall surface, and the first elastic member is used to achieve a buffering effect when the ticket card is aligned in the direction of the second box wall, so as to prevent the second push rod from bending or crushing the ticket card when pushing the ticket card to align;

[0072] The specific structure is: it includes a second fixed wall 2122, the second box wall is arranged parallel to the second fixed wall, and a buffer guide column 2124 is provided between the two, the other end of the elastic member abuts the second box wall, and the other end abuts the second fixed wall, the second fixed wall is installed on the ticket box base 2153 by a screw 2123, and a waist hole 21221 is provided at the lower part of the second fixed wall. By loosening the screw, the position of the second fixed wall can be adjusted so that the ticket receiving box can adapt to tickets of different sizes.

[0073] like Fig.10 As shown: the first push rod 22 can slide along its axial direction, and the push rod is provided with a second elastic member 221 for buffering in the sliding direction, the first push rod is installed on the push rod seat 222, one end of the second elastic member abuts against the push rod seat, and the other end abuts against the first push rod, and a buffer pad 223 is also provided at the abutting top of the first push rod;

[0074] In this embodiment, the buffer pad is a rubber pad, and the second elastic member is a compression spring. Like the first elastic member, the second elastic member can buffer the ticket in the direction of the first / third box wall to prevent the ticket from being bent or damaged when the first push rod is pressed against it.

[0075] The box bottom 215 is provided with a lifting mechanism, through which the box bottom can be driven to rise and fall, thereby changing the depth of the ticket receiving box; the box bottom and the lifting mechanism of this embodiment are specifically as follows Fig.11 As shown: the box bottom is fork-shaped, and the fork-shaped gap can be inserted into the robot. The box bottom is fixedly connected to one end of the lifting rod 2151, and the other end of the lifting rod is connected to the servo motor 2152. A linear guide 2154 is also provided between the lifting rod and the ticket box base 2153. The lifting rod is controlled by the servo motor to drive the up and down displacement of the box bottom. Figure 6As shown: the mouth of the ticket receiving box is provided with a photoelectric sensor 2155 for monitoring the stacking position of the ticket cards;

[0076] The initial position of the bottom of the ticket receiving box is very close to the location where the ticket card falls. At this time, the ticket receiving box is very shallow, which is conducive to controlling the shape of the falling and stacking of the ticket card, and the bottom of the box can move downward according to the thickness of the ticket card stack in the box to keep the height of the falling ticket card basically unchanged, thereby improving the stability of the material receiving. When the ticket card falls into the ticket receiving box, the photoelectric sensor detects that there is material, and then gives a signal to control the bottom of the box to drop to the position where the photoelectric sensor cannot detect the ticket card. The bottom of the box drops a corresponding distance according to the actual increase in the stacking height. This method is more direct than calculating the drop height according to the ticket card thickness and the number of cards received, and can better adapt to various different stacking situations that occur during the production process.

[0077] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown: the ticket receiving box is connected to the ticket box guide rail 24, and the ticket receiving box can reciprocate along the ticket box guide rail, and the ticket receiving position and the grabbing position are formed by the position change of the reciprocating motion;

[0078] In this embodiment, the ticket box guide rail is a linear guide rail driven by a cylinder. When the ticket receiving box is located at both ends of the ticket box guide rail, it constitutes the ticket collecting position and the grabbing position respectively. The ticket receiving box itself only needs two working positions (ticket collecting position and grabbing position), which can be fully met by the cylinder. The cylinder also moves quickly and the pneumatic components are clean and pollution-free.

[0079] The manipulator Figure 12 to Figure 14 As shown: it includes a first finger 311 and a second finger 312. In this embodiment, the first finger is fixedly connected to a sliding seat 313, a sliding rail is provided on the sliding seat, the second finger is installed on the sliding rail and can reciprocate along the sliding rail, and the second finger is provided with a grabbing cylinder 314 for driving the movement thereof;

[0080] The second push rod 32 is fixedly connected to the middle part or the root of the first finger or the second finger. In this embodiment, the second push rod is fixedly connected to the middle part of the first finger, and the middle part of the second finger has a through hole for the second push rod to pass through. The second push rod is arranged along the stacking direction of the ticket card. The second finger is driven by the grabbing cylinder to approach or move away from the first finger. The second push rod is fixed to the first finger and can pass through the through hole of the second finger. After the ticket receiving box moves to the grabbing position, the manipulator also moves to the grabbing position, and firstly uses the side wall of the second push rod to completely press against one side of the stacked ticket card to achieve the alignment of the ticket card, without the need to add other components to the second push rod for simultaneously pressing against one side of the stacked ticket card.

[0081] In this embodiment, Fig.14As shown: there are two second push rods, and the two second push rods arranged side by side are at different distances from the fingertips of the first finger or the second finger. This design allows you to choose which one to use according to the size of the ticket.

[0082] like Fig.12 and Fig.13 As shown: the manipulator can rotate, and the rotation axis of the rotation is parallel to the sliding direction of the horizontal slide, and further, the rotation angle range of the manipulator is 0°-90°;

[0083] In fact, the rotation of the manipulator only needs two angles, 0° and 90°. The angle when grabbing the ticket card is defined as 0°, and when bundling, it is 90°. This is because when the ticket card is placed in the bundling machine for bundling, one side of the ticket card must be against the surface of the bundling machine (such as Fig.15 As shown in the figure, after grabbing the ticket, one side of the ticket cannot contact the surface of the strapping machine due to the interference of the robot, so the ticket needs to be rotated 90°. In fact, this is determined by the characteristics of the strapping machine. In specific implementation, the strapping machine can also be modified, such as digging a accommodating groove on the surface of the strapping machine to accommodate the robot. This can also meet the feature that the ticket is against the surface of the strapping machine during strapping. This embodiment adopts the method of rotating the robot, does not customize the strapping machine structure, and can effectively control costs.

[0084] like Fig.12 and Fig.13 As shown: Therefore, in this embodiment, the mechanism for realizing the rotation of the manipulator includes a rotating shaft 315 fixedly connected to a sliding seat 313, on which a gear 316 is provided, and also includes a driving cylinder 317, the piston rod of the driving cylinder is connected to a rack 318, the rack matches the gear, and the cylinder drives the rack to perform linear motion, and the rotation of the manipulator is realized through the meshing of the rack and the gear. At this time, the two end values ​​of the cylinder stroke respectively constitute the states of 0° and 90°, which is fast in action and can better control costs, but is not limited to this. Any other known rotation drive mechanism is included in the protection scope of the present invention, such as directly using a servo motor, such as using a belt mechanism, etc.

[0085] like Fig.16 As shown: the receiving bin 5 includes a receiving conveyor belt 51 and a bin body 52, the receiving conveyor belt is provided with a driving member for driving its motion transmission, one end of the receiving conveyor belt is connected to the bin body, the bin body is located at the edge of the frame 8, through the cooperation of the receiving conveyor belt and the bin body, the bin body is arranged at the edge of the equipment frame to facilitate the removal of the bundled tickets.

[0086] In this embodiment, the ticket card is an RFID electronic ticket card.

[0087] The working process and working principle of the present invention are as follows:

[0088] After the ticket card completes other processes (such as reading, writing, testing, etc.), it is conveyed to the top of the ticket receiving box 21 by the conveying device 6 (for example, it is conveyed to the top of the ticket receiving box after being adsorbed by a vacuum conveyor belt), and then falls into the ticket receiving box. At this time, the ticket receiving box is located at the ticket receiving position, and several ticket cards are stacked in the ticket receiving box. When the ticket cards are full (the stacking can be signaled from the conveying device, or a sensor can be set on the ticket receiving box itself for monitoring, or it can be calculated by the falling height of the box bottom, etc., the method is not limited), the ticket receiving box moves to the grabbing position, and at the same time passes through the first top The rod pushes the floating wall of the third box wall to achieve the alignment of the ticket in one direction, and then the manipulator moves to the grabbing position, and the manipulator extends into the opening on the fourth box wall, and first pushes the second push rod on the manipulator to achieve the top alignment of the ticket in another direction. After the alignment is completed, the manipulator grabs (clamps) the ticket, and then the manipulator flips 90° and places the ticket on the strapping machine for packaging. After packaging is completed, the manipulator places it on the receiving conveyor belt, and the receiving conveyor belt transmits it to the receiving bin body, thus completing the complete ticket automatic alignment, strapping and collection actions.
