Currently, glass stacking is mostly done manually, which is labor-intensive and inefficient. Summary of the Invention

[0003] To overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, the present invention provides a stacking machine that has the function of automatically stacking glass sheets.

[0004] The technical solution adopted by this invention to solve its technical problem is:

[0005] A stacking machine includes a frame and a storage mechanism, a loading mechanism, a feeding mechanism and a unloading mechanism disposed on the frame;

[0006] The storage mechanism is used to hold a basket containing glass plates;

[0007] The feeding mechanism is located between the storage mechanism and the feeding mechanism, and the feeding mechanism is used to pick up the glass sheet in the storage mechanism and send it to the feeding mechanism.

[0008] The feeding mechanism is used to convey the glass sheet picked up by the loading mechanism to a position close to the unloading mechanism;

[0009] The feeding mechanism includes a stacking device for placing glass sheets, a paper holder device for placing paper, and a picking device for picking up glass from the feeding mechanism and paper from the paper holder device into the stacking device. When the picking device picks up glass sheets from the feeding mechanism, it places the picked-up paper into the stacking device. When the picking device places glass sheets from the feeding mechanism into the stacking device, it picks up paper from the paper holder device. The stacking device is located between the paper holder device and the feeding mechanism.

[0010] The material storage mechanism includes a first material rack, a second material rack, a first drive component for driving the first material rack to move toward or away from the feeding mechanism, and a second drive component for driving the second material rack to move in the opposite direction to the first material rack.

[0011] The second material rack has a support plate at its bottom, and support legs are provided on two opposite sides of the bottom of the support plate. The support legs are located on both sides parallel to the movement direction of the first material rack. The bottom of the support plate is higher than the first material rack. The first material rack is located between the support legs on both sides of the support plate and slides under the support plate.

[0012] The first drive assembly includes at least two first lead screws rotatably mounted on the frame and a first drive member for driving the first lead screws to rotate. Multiple first lead screws are arranged in parallel and located between the support legs on both sides of the support plate. The first lead screws are threadedly connected to the bottom of the first material rack.

[0013] The second drive assembly includes at least two second lead screws rotatably mounted on the frame and a second drive member for driving the second lead screws to rotate. Multiple second lead screws are arranged in parallel and are threadedly connected to the support legs on both sides of the support plate. The first lead screw is parallel to the second lead screw.

[0014] The feeding mechanism includes a sheet-picking assembly, a rotary drive assembly, a feeding lifting assembly, a feeding translation assembly, and a support. The support is mounted on the frame, and the feeding translation assembly is mounted on the support. The feeding translation assembly is connected to the feeding lifting assembly, which drives the feeding lifting assembly to move horizontally between the feeding mechanism and the storage mechanism. The feeding lifting assembly is connected to the sheet-picking assembly, which drives the sheet-picking assembly to lift and lower. The rotary drive assembly is connected to the sheet-picking assembly and drives the sheet-picking assembly to rotate 90 degrees.

[0015] The feeding mechanism includes a support base, a first rotating shaft and a second rotating shaft rotatably mounted on the support base, a conveyor belt sleeved on the first rotating shaft and the second rotating shaft, and a conveyor drive assembly for driving the first rotating shaft to rotate. The first rotating shaft and the second rotating shaft are at the same height and are horizontally arranged.

[0016] The stacking device includes a first support plate for carrying stacked glass sheets, a glass lifting assembly located at the bottom of the first support plate for driving the first support plate to rise and fall, and an alignment assembly located on the frame and around the first support plate for aligning the four sides of the stacked glass sheets.

[0017] The paper rack device includes a paper rack body, a second tray disposed inside the paper rack body for carrying paper, and a paper lifting assembly disposed at the bottom of the second tray for driving the second tray to rise and fall.

[0018] The paper holder body is equipped with air knives on its exterior for separating adjacent sheets of paper.

[0019] The feeding mechanism, stacking device, and support device are arranged sequentially along a straight line. The picking device includes a support frame, a first picking lifting assembly, a second picking lifting assembly, a picking translation assembly, a first picking assembly, and a second picking assembly. The support frame is mounted on the machine frame. The picking translation assembly is mounted on the support frame and is used to drive the first picking lifting assembly and the second picking lifting assembly to move horizontally between the feeding mechanism and the paper holder device simultaneously. The first picking lifting assembly and the second picking lifting assembly are connected to the picking translation assembly. The first picking lifting assembly is used to drive the first picking assembly to lift and lower, and the second picking lifting assembly is used to drive the second picking assembly to lift and lower. The first picking assembly is used to pick up glass sheets, and the second picking assembly is used to pick up paper.

[0020] The beneficial effects of this invention are:

[0021] In operation, the stacking machine of this invention involves the operator placing a basket containing glass sheets onto a storage mechanism. A feeding mechanism then picks up the glass sheets from the storage mechanism, removes them, and transfers them to a conveying mechanism. The conveying mechanism moves the glass sheets closer to the unloading mechanism. The unloading mechanism's picking device picks up the glass sheets from the conveying mechanism and further conveys them above the stacking device, placing them into the stacking device. Simultaneously, the picking device picks up paper from a paper holder and places it into the stacking device. This placement of paper between adjacent glass sheets isolates them, protecting the glass sheets and preventing surface wear caused by friction. This invention achieves automatic glass sheet stacking, significantly improving stacking efficiency and saving labor costs. Attached Figure Description

[0032] The following will clearly and completely describe the concept, specific structure, and technical effects of the present invention in conjunction with embodiments and accompanying drawings, so as to fully understand the purpose, features, and effects of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of them. Other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative effort are all within the scope of protection of the present invention. Furthermore, all connections / linkages involved in the patent do not simply refer to direct contact between components, but rather to the ability to form a better connection structure by adding or reducing connecting accessories according to specific implementation conditions. The various technical features in this invention can be combined interactively without contradicting each other.

[0033] Example

[0034] A stacking machine, such as Figure 1 and 2 As shown, it includes a frame 10 and a storage mechanism 20, a loading mechanism 30, a feeding mechanism 40, and a unloading mechanism 50 mounted on the frame 10. The storage mechanism 20 is used to hold a basket 60 containing glass slides (see [reference]). Figure 7 (As shown). The loading mechanism 30 is located between the storage mechanism 20 and the feeding mechanism 40. The loading mechanism 30 is used to pick up glass sheets from the storage mechanism 20 and feed them to the feeding mechanism 40. The feeding mechanism 40 is used to convey the glass sheets picked up by the loading mechanism 30 to a position close to the unloading mechanism 50. The unloading mechanism 50 includes a stacking device 51 for placing glass sheets, a paper holder device 52 for placing paper, and a picking device 53 for picking up glass from the feeding mechanism 40 and paper from the paper holder device 52 and feeding them into the stacking device 51. When the picking device 53 picks up glass sheets from the feeding mechanism 40, it places the picked-up paper into the stacking device 51; when the picking device 53 places the picked-up glass into the stacking device 51, it picks up paper from the paper holder device 52. The stacking device 51 is located between the paper holder device 52 and the feeding mechanism 40.

[0035] By setting up the above-described structure, in specific operation, the operator places the material basket 60 containing glass sheets on the storage mechanism 20, and then the feeding mechanism 30 picks up the glass sheets from the storage mechanism 20, removes the glass sheets from the storage mechanism 20, and transfers the glass sheets to the feeding mechanism 40 for conveying. The feeding mechanism 40 conveys the glass sheets towards the unloading mechanism 50, and the picking device 53 of the unloading mechanism 50 picks up the glass sheets conveyed by the feeding mechanism 40, further conveys the glass sheets to the top of the stacking device 51 and places the glass sheets into the stacking device 51. While picking up the glass sheets, the picking device 53 also places the paper picked up from the paper holder device 52 into the stacking device 51. When the picking device 53 places the glass sheets into the stacking device 51, the picking device 53 picks up the paper from the paper holder device 52, thus placing paper between adjacent glass sheets to isolate the glass sheets, protect the glass sheets, and prevent adjacent glass sheets from rubbing against each other and causing wear on the glass sheet surface. By setting the above-mentioned structure, the present invention achieves the purpose of automatically stacking glass sheets, which greatly improves the stacking efficiency and saves labor costs.

[0036] The storage mechanism 20 includes a first material rack 21, a second material rack 22, a first drive component 23 for driving the first material rack 21 to move toward or away from the feeding mechanism 30, and a second drive component 24 for driving the second material rack 22 to move in the opposite direction to the first material rack 21.

[0037] By setting up a first material rack 21 and a second material rack 22, the first material rack 21 and the second material rack 22 can be used alternately during operation. When the feeding mechanism 30 is picking up the glass on the first material rack 21, the operator can first place the material basket 60 containing glass sheets on the second material rack 22. When the glass sheets on the first material rack 21 are all taken out, the feeding component can immediately pick up the glass sheets on the second material rack 22, saving the time of loading glass sheets and improving the stacking efficiency. By setting the first drive assembly 23 and the second drive assembly 24 to drive the first material rack 21 and the second material rack 22 to move respectively, when the glass sheets on the first material rack 21 or the second material rack 22 are used up, the first drive assembly 23 or the second drive assembly 24 can drive the empty first material rack 21 or the second material rack 22 to move away from the feeding mechanism 30, and move the second material rack 22 or the first material rack 21 with glass sheets to move closer to the feeding mechanism 30. On the one hand, it is convenient for the feeding mechanism 30 to pick up materials, and on the other hand, it is convenient for the workers to load glass sheets into the empty first material rack 21 or the second material rack 22. It avoids the situation where the glass sheets picked up by the feeding mechanism 30 fall and are damaged when the workers are loading glass sheets, because they are blocked or bump into the feeding mechanism 30. Therefore, the setting of the first drive assembly 23 and the second drive assembly 24 is beneficial to improving work efficiency and protecting the glass sheets.

[0038] Among them, combined Figure 3 The second material rack 22 has a support plate 221 at its bottom. The support plate 221 has two opposite support legs 222 on its bottom sides. The support legs 222 are located on both sides parallel to the movement direction of the first material rack 21. The bottom of the support plate 221 is higher than the first material rack 21. The first material rack 21 is located between the support legs 222 on both sides of the support plate 221. The first material rack 21 slides under the support plate 221.

[0039] By setting the above structure, the first material rack 21 can slide over the bottom of the second material rack 22. That is, the first material rack 21 and the second material rack 22 are arranged in an upper and lower layer. Compared with arranging the first material rack 21 and the second material rack 22 horizontally, the arrangement of the present invention saves the area occupied by the first material rack 21 and the second material rack 22 on the frame 10, which helps to reduce the volume of the frame 10 and thus reduce the footprint of the entire equipment.

[0040] The first drive assembly 23 includes at least two first lead screws 231 rotatably mounted on the frame 10 and a first drive member (not shown) for driving the first lead screws 231 to rotate. Multiple first lead screws 231 are arranged in parallel and located between support legs 222 on both sides of the support plate 221. The first lead screws 231 are threadedly connected to the bottom of the first material rack 21. The second drive assembly 24 includes at least two second lead screws 241 rotatably mounted on the frame 10 and a second drive member (not shown) for driving the second lead screws 241 to rotate. Multiple second lead screws 241 are arranged in parallel and threadedly connected to the support legs 222 on both sides of the support plate 221. The first lead screws 231 are parallel to the second lead screws 241.

[0041] Specifically, in this embodiment, multiple first fixing blocks 25 and multiple second fixing blocks 26 corresponding to the multiple first fixing blocks 25 are arranged at intervals on the frame 10. The two ends of the first lead screw 231 are rotatably connected to the first fixing block 25 and the second fixing block 26 located in the middle position, respectively. The two ends of the second lead screw 241 are rotatably connected to the first fixing blocks 25 and the second fixing blocks 26 located on both sides, respectively. The first driving component is a first motor, and the second driving component is a second motor.

[0042] The cooperation of the first lead screw 231, the first drive member, the second lead screw 241, and the second drive member improves the movement accuracy of the first material rack 21 and the second material rack 22, enabling them to move precisely to the material picking position of the feeding mechanism 30. This facilitates stable material picking by the feeding mechanism 30. On the other hand, it makes the movement of the first material rack 21 and the second material rack 22 more stable and less prone to vibration. This helps protect the glass sheets placed on the first material rack 21 and the second material rack 22 from vibration, preventing damage to the glass sheets caused by collisions between glass sheets, between glass sheets and the material basket 60, and between the material basket 60 and the material rack.

[0043] The first material rack 21 includes a material rack base plate 211 and a plurality of positioning blocks 212 disposed on the material rack base plate 211. The material rack base plate 211 is provided with a plurality of rectangular material placement positions 213, the shape and size of each material placement position 213 matching the material basket 60. The plurality of positioning blocks 212 are disposed on the edge of the material placement position 213 for positioning the material basket 60. The bottom of the material rack base plate 211 is provided with a plurality of connecting sleeves 215, and the connecting sleeves 215 are threadedly connected to the first lead screw 231.

[0044] By setting the base plate 211 and the positioning block 212, the base plate 211 is used to support the basket 60 containing glass sheets, while the positioning block 212 can quickly position the basket 60, saving time in adjusting its position. On the other hand, it can fix the basket 60, preventing it from shifting due to vibration or external force during the movement of the first material rack 21, thus ensuring that the feeding mechanism 30 can pick up materials smoothly.

[0045] Each of the feeding positions 213 is provided with four positioning blocks 212. The positioning blocks 212 are L-shaped and are respectively located at the four right angles of the feeding position 213, with the right angles of the four positioning blocks 212 facing the center of the feeding position 213.

[0046] By setting the above structure, the "L"-shaped positioning block 212 can better position the four right angles of the basket 60, so that the basket 60 is locked between the four positioning blocks 212, thereby preventing the basket 60 from shifting on the horizontal plane. Moreover, it can reduce the number of positioning blocks 212, saving material costs and processing costs.

[0047] The positioning block 212 is provided with an inclined guide surface 214, which extends from the upper end of the positioning block 212 toward the side of the positioning block 212 toward the material feeding position 213.

[0048] The guide surface 214 facilitates the sliding of the material basket 60 into the material placement position 213, and avoids the upper end surface of the positioning block 212 blocking the bottom of the material basket 60 when placing the material basket 60. This helps to improve the installation efficiency of the material basket 60 and thus improve the stacking efficiency.

[0049] The structure of the second material rack 22 is the same as or similar to that of the first material rack 21, and will not be described in detail here.

[0050] Among them, combined Figure 4 The feeding mechanism 30 includes a sheet-picking assembly 31, a rotary drive assembly (not shown in the figure), a feeding lifting assembly 33, a feeding translation assembly 34, and a support 35. The support 35 is mounted on the frame 10, and the feeding translation assembly 34 is mounted on the support 35. The feeding translation assembly 34 is connected to the feeding lifting assembly 33, and the feeding translation assembly 34 drives the feeding lifting assembly 33 to move horizontally and linearly between the feeding mechanism 40 and the storage mechanism 20. The feeding lifting assembly 33 is connected to the sheet-picking assembly 31, and the feeding lifting assembly 33 is used to drive the sheet-picking assembly 31 to lift and lower. The rotary drive assembly is connected to the sheet-picking assembly 31 and is used to drive the sheet-picking assembly 31 to rotate 90 degrees.

[0051] When the feeding mechanism 30 feeds the glass sheet, the glass sheet picking component 31 picks up the glass sheet on the material rack. Then, the feeding lifting component 33 drives the picking component to rise, so that the picking component moves the glass sheet up synchronously and takes the glass sheet away from the material basket 60. When the glass sheet rises above the upper surface of the feeding mechanism 40, the feeding lifting component 33 stops driving the picking component to move. The feeding translation component 34 starts driving the feeding lifting component 33 to move horizontally towards the feeding mechanism 40 until the glass sheet picking component 31 moves above the feeding mechanism 40 and then stops. Then, the rotation drive component drives the glass sheet picking component 31 to rotate upward 90 degrees so that the surface of the glass sheet faces down. Finally, the feeding lifting component 33 drives the glass sheet picking component 31 to move downward to the upper surface of the feeding mechanism 40. The glass sheet picking component 31 places the glass sheet on the feeding mechanism 40, completing the feeding. At this point, the rotating drive assembly, the feeding lifting assembly 33, and the feeding translation assembly 34 work together to return the glass sheet picking assembly 31 to the state and position of picking up the glass sheet, and proceed with the next round of picking. By setting up this feeding mechanism 30, the stacking machine can automatically pick up and feed the glass sheet, which is highly efficient and accurate.

[0052] The tablet taking assembly 31 includes a connector 311, a plurality of first suction nozzles 312 disposed on the side of the connector 311 facing the storage mechanism 20, a first air pipe (not shown in the figure) connected to the plurality of first suction nozzles 312, and a first air pump (not shown in the figure) connected to the end of the first air pipe away from the first suction nozzles 312.

[0053] During material handling, a first air pump evacuates air from the first air pipe and the first suction nozzle 312, making the pressure between the first suction nozzle 312 and the glass sheet less than atmospheric pressure. This securely fixes the glass sheet to the first suction nozzle 312. When the glass sheet moves to the feeding mechanism 40, the air pump slowly pumps gas into the first air pipe and the first suction nozzle 312, making the pressure between the first suction nozzle 312 and the glass sheet greater than or equal to atmospheric pressure. This causes the glass sheet to separate from the first suction nozzle 312. Compared to mechanical clamping methods, the material handling method of this invention is more effective in protecting the glass sheet and preventing scratches or damage to its surface.

[0054] The first suction nozzle 312 is a rubber suction nozzle. The rubber material is softer and more conducive to protecting the glass sheet.

[0055] In order to facilitate the first suction nozzle 312 to pick up the glass sheet and improve the feeding efficiency, multiple first suction nozzles 312 are divided into suction groups that correspond one-to-one with the feeding positions 213 on the first feeding rack. Each suction group includes at least two first suction nozzles 312. The presence of at least two first suction nozzles 312 in each group makes the glass sheet picking assembly 31 pick up the glass sheet more stably and makes it less likely for the glass sheet to fall off.

[0056] The feeding lifting assembly 33 includes a feeding vertical guide rail 331 connected to the feeding translation assembly 34, a feeding lifting slider 332 slidably connected to the feeding vertical guide rail 331, and a feeding lifting drive component 333 for driving the feeding lifting slider 332 to move linearly along the feeding vertical guide rail 331. The connecting component 311 is rotatably connected to the feeding lifting slider 332, and the feeding lifting drive component 333 is disposed on the feeding vertical guide rail 331.

[0057] In use, the loading lifting slider 332 and the glass pick-up assembly 31 are driven to lift synchronously by the loading lifting drive 333. The loading vertical guide rail 331 guides the movement of the loading lifting slider 332, preventing it from deviating. It also improves the stability of the movement of the loading lifting slider 332, making it less prone to vibration. This makes it easier for the glass pick-up assembly 31 to stably pick up the glass sheet, thus protecting the glass sheet.

[0058] The feeding lifting slider 332 is equipped with a rotary cylinder (not shown in the figure). The output shaft of the rotary cylinder is fixedly connected to the connector 311. The rotary cylinder is used to drive the connector 311 to rotate 90 degrees, thereby driving the first suction nozzle 312 to rotate 90 degrees, so that the glass sheet can be placed horizontally on the feeding mechanism 40.

[0059] The feeding translation component 34 includes a feeding horizontal guide rail 341 horizontally mounted on the support 35 and a feeding translation drive for driving the feeding vertical guide rail 331 to move horizontally along the feeding horizontal guide rail 341. The feeding vertical guide rail 331 is slidably connected to the feeding horizontal guide rail 341. Specifically, the feeding horizontal guide rail 341 is provided with a feeding horizontal groove 343 on the side near the feeding vertical guide rail 331, and a feeding horizontal slider (not shown in the figure) is provided on the side of the feeding vertical guide rail 331 near the feeding horizontal groove 343, which slides in cooperation with the feeding horizontal groove 343. The feeding horizontal slider is slidably disposed in the feeding horizontal groove 343.

[0060] In use, the feeding vertical guide rail 331 is driven by the feeding translation drive to move horizontally along the feeding horizontal guide rail 341. The movement of the feeding vertical guide rail 331 in turn drives the feeding lifting slider 332 and the sheet taking component 31 to move horizontally in sync, thereby achieving the purpose of adjusting the horizontal position of the sheet taking component 31. The operation is simple and efficient.

[0061] Both the loading lifting drive 333 and the loading translation drive are linear motors.

[0062] Among them, combined Figure 5 The feeding mechanism 40 includes a support base 41, a first rotating shaft 42 and a second rotating shaft 43 rotatably mounted on the support base 41, a conveyor belt 44 sleeved on the first rotating shaft 42 and the second rotating shaft 43, and a conveyor drive assembly 45 for driving the first rotating shaft 42 to rotate. The first rotating shaft 42 and the second rotating shaft 43 are at the same height and are horizontally arranged. The support base 41 is fixedly mounted on the frame 10.

[0063] By setting the first rotating shaft 42 and the second rotating shaft 43 to the same height and horizontal, the surface of the conveyor belt 44, which is sleeved on the first rotating shaft 42 and the second rotating shaft 43, is horizontally positioned, facilitating the subsequent unloading mechanism 50. In this invention, the first rotating shaft 42 is driven by the conveyor drive assembly 45, causing the first rotating shaft 42 to move the conveyor belt 44 closer to the unloading mechanism 50. The second rotating shaft 43 rotates synchronously under the influence of the conveyor belt 44. The rotation of the second rotating shaft 43 helps reduce the frictional resistance of the conveyor belt 44, allowing the first rotating shaft 42 to better drive the conveyor belt 44 to rotate.

[0064] The transmission drive assembly 45 includes a first synchronous pulley 451 rotatably connected to the support base 41, a second synchronous pulley 452 fixedly connected to the first rotating shaft 42, a synchronous belt 453 sleeved between the first synchronous pulley 451 and the second synchronous pulley 452, and a transmission drive component (not shown in the figure) for driving the first synchronous pulley 451 to rotate. The transmission drive component is fixedly mounted on the support base 41 and is a stepper motor. The first rotating shaft 42 and the second synchronous pulley 452 are coaxially arranged.

[0065] In practical use, the first synchronous pulley 451 is driven to rotate by the transmission drive component. The first synchronous pulley 451 drives the synchronous belt 453 to rotate, and the synchronous belt 453 further drives the second synchronous pulley 452 to rotate, which in turn drives the first rotating shaft 42 to rotate synchronously. The structure is simple and the movement is stable.

[0066] The support base 41 is equipped with a brush (not shown in the figure). The brush is located below the conveyor belt 44, and the bristles of the brush abut against the lower surface of the conveyor belt 44 to clean the dust or other contaminants on the surface of the conveyor belt 44. This helps to keep the surface of the conveyor belt 44 clean and prevents the glass sheet from being contaminated by dust or other contaminants after it is placed on the conveyor belt 44.

[0067] Among them, combined Figure 6 The stacking device 51 includes a first support plate 511 for carrying glass stacks, a glass lifting assembly 512 disposed at the bottom of the first support plate 511 for driving the first support plate 511 to rise and fall, and an alignment assembly 513 disposed on the frame 10 and located around the first support plate 511 for aligning the four sides of the glass stacks.

[0068] By setting the glass lifting assembly 512, the height of the first pallet 511 can be adjusted according to the stacking height of the glass sheets. When there are few glass sheets stacked on the first pallet 511, the thickness of the stacked glass sheets is small. In order to facilitate the material handling device 53 to place the glass sheets on the first pallet 511, the glass lifting assembly 512 drives the first pallet 511 to a higher position, so that the material handling device 53 does not need to move the glass sheets excessively downward to place them on the first pallet 511, which helps to improve the stacking efficiency. When there are many glass sheets stacked on the first pallet 511, the thickness of the stacked glass sheets is large. The glass lifting assembly 512 drives the first pallet 511 to descend, so that the topmost glass sheet on the first pallet 511 always maintains a certain distance from the material handling device 53. This allows the material handling device 53 to continue to stack glass sheets on the first pallet 511, which helps to increase the stacking volume of glass sheets, enabling the stacking machine to stack more glass sheets at once. The alignment component 513 is designed so that when stacking glass sheets, the alignment component 513 can continuously align the four sides of the glass sheets, ensuring that the edges of the stacked glass sheets remain aligned, which facilitates the later packaging of the stacked glass sheets.

[0069] The glass lifting assembly 512 includes a glass lifting screw 5121, at least two glass lifting guide rods 5122, a glass lifting nut 5123, a glass lifting connecting block 5124, a glass lifting motor 5125, and a glass lifting fixing frame 5126. The glass lifting fixing frame 5126 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the frame 10. The glass lifting motor 5125 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the glass lifting fixing frame 5126. The upper end of the glass lifting screw 5121 is rotatably connected to the top of the glass lifting fixing frame 5126. The lower end of the glass lifting screw 5121 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the glass lifting motor 5125. The glass lifting nut 5123 is installed on the glass lifting screw 5121 and threadedly connected to the glass lifting screw 5121. The glass lifting connecting block 5124 is fixedly connected to the glass lifting nut 5123. The lower end of the glass lifting guide rod 5122 is fixedly connected to the glass lifting connecting block 5124. The upper end of the glass lifting guide rod 5122 passes through the frame 10 and is fixedly connected to the first support plate 511. The glass lifting guide rod 5122 is slidably connected to the frame 10.

[0070] When the glass lifting assembly 512 drives the first pallet 511 to rise and fall, the glass lifting motor 5125 drives the glass lifting screw 5121 to rotate. Since the glass lifting nut 5123 is limited by the glass lifting guide rod 5122, when the glass lifting screw 5121 rotates, the glass lifting nut 5123 can only rise and fall along the glass lifting screw 5121 and cannot rotate with the glass lifting screw 5121. As a result, the first pallet 511 moves up and down under the action of the glass lifting nut 5123 and the glass lifting guide rod 5122. The cooperation between the glass lifting nut 5123 and the glass lifting screw 5121 improves the movement accuracy of the first pallet 511, allowing for precise adjustment to the appropriate height. This prevents the glass from being broken or crushed when the material handling component places the glass or paper onto the first pallet 511 due to an unsuitable height. On the other hand, the cooperation between the glass lifting nut 5123 and the glass lifting guide rod 5122 makes the movement of the first pallet 511 more stable and less prone to vibration, thus preventing the glass pieces on the first pallet 511 from colliding and being damaged.

[0071] The alignment assembly 513 includes at least four alignment plates 5131 and alignment drive members 5132 for driving the alignment plates 5131 to move. The alignment plates 5131 are slidably mounted on the frame 10. The at least four alignment plates 5131 are respectively located on the four sides near the first support plate 511. Two alignment plates 5131 arranged opposite each other are parallel to each other, and two adjacent alignment plates 5131 are perpendicular to each other. The alignment drive member 5132 is used to drive the alignment plates 5131 to move towards or away from the first support plate 511. The upper surface of the first support plate 511 is less than or equal to the surface area of ​​the glass sheet. Specifically, the alignment drive member 5132 is an alignment cylinder. The telescopic shaft of the alignment cylinder is connected to the side of the alignment plate 5131 away from the first support plate 511. The alignment drive member 5132 is mounted on the frame 10.

[0072] When aligning stacked glass sheets using the alignment component 513, multiple alignment drive units 5132 drive multiple alignment plates 5131 to move toward the first support plate 511. Two opposing alignment plates 5131 simultaneously push the two opposite sides of the glass stack, aligning the two opposite sides of the glass stack. The four alignment plates 5131 align the four sides of the glass stack.

[0073] The alignment assembly 513 further includes a sliding block 5133 located at the bottom of one of the alignment drive members 5132 near the long side of the glass sheet, a sliding guide rail 5134 mounted on the frame 10 and slidably engaged with the sliding block 5133, and a translation cylinder 5135 for driving the sliding block 5133 to slide along the length of the sliding guide rail 5134. The length of the sliding guide rail 5134 is arranged parallel to the first support plate 511. The bottom of the sliding block 5133 is provided with a sliding groove (not shown in the figure) that slidably engages with the sliding guide rail 5134. The telescopic shaft of the translation cylinder 5135 is fixedly connected to the sliding block 5133. Specifically, the sliding block 5133, the sliding guide rail 5134, and the translation cylinder 5135 are located on the side away from the material handling assembly.

[0074] Because the long sides of the glass sheet are relatively long, when the alignment plate 5131 aligns the two long sides of the glass sheet, the narrow width of the alignment plate 5131 may prevent the two long sides of the glass sheet from being aligned neatly. Therefore, this invention provides a sliding block 5133 at the bottom of one of the alignment drive members 5132 near the long side of the glass sheet, and drives the sliding block 5133 to slide by a translation cylinder 5135. Thus, when aligning the glass sheets on the first support plate 511, the alignment can be achieved by starting... The alignment drive 5132 located on the two long sides of the glass sheet drives the alignment plate 5131 to approach the glass stack. Then, the translation cylinder 5135 drives the sliding block 5133 and the alignment cylinder located on the sliding block 5133 to move synchronously along the direction parallel to the first support plate 511. This causes the alignment plate 5131 on that side to move along the direction parallel to the first support plate 511. The movement of the alignment plate 5131 on that side pushes the various positions of the long side of the glass stack, aligning the various positions of the long side of the glass stack.

[0075] The paper holder device 52 includes a paper holder body 521, a second tray 522 disposed inside the paper holder body 521 for carrying paper, and a paper lifting assembly 523 disposed at the bottom of the second tray 522 for driving the second tray 522 to rise and fall.

[0076] By setting up the paper lifting component 523, the height of the second tray 522 can be adjusted according to the stacking height of the paper. When there are few sheets of paper stacked on the second tray 522, the thickness of the stacked paper is small. In order to facilitate the paper picking device 53 to remove the paper from the paper holder body 521, the paper lifting component 523 drives the second tray 522 to a higher position, so that the paper picking device 53 does not need to move excessively downward to remove the paper from the paper holder body 521, thus improving the paper picking efficiency and stacking efficiency. When there are many sheets of paper stacked on the second tray 522, the thickness of the stacked paper is large. The paper lifting component 523 drives the second tray 522 to descend, so that the paper holder body 521 can accommodate more sheets, thereby enabling the stacking machine to stack more glass sheets at one time.

[0077] The paper holder body 521 includes a base 5211, a fixed base plate 5212 fixedly disposed in the middle of the base 5211, and a surrounding plate 5213 disposed around the fixed base plate 5212. Each surrounding plate 5213 is rotatably connected to at least two positioning screws 5214 on the side facing the fixed base plate 5212. The positioning screws 5214 are threadedly connected to the side of the fixed base plate 5212.

[0078] This invention comprises a base 5211, a fixed base plate 5212, and multiple surrounding plates 5213, forming a paper holder body 521 for placing paper. This design prevents paper from being scattered or falling off the second tray 522 due to external wind when placed inside the paper holder body 521. It also protects the paper on the second tray 522 from being knocked off by external objects. Furthermore, by providing at least two positioning screws 5214 on each surrounding plate 5213, this invention ensures that the surrounding plates 5213 do not tilt or shift when installed on the fixed base plate 5212, thus improving the structural stability of the paper holder body 521. The enclosure 5213 of this invention is threadedly connected to the fixed base plate 5212 via a positioning screw 5214. This allows the enclosure 5213 to adjust the distance between itself and the positioning rack base plate 211 by rotating the positioning screw 5214, thereby adjusting the distance between the upper ends of multiple enclosures 5213 and ultimately adjusting the size of the opening at the top of the paper holder body 521. By adjusting multiple enclosures 5213 to a position further away from the fixed base plate 5212, the opening at the top of the paper holder body 521 is made larger, facilitating the placement of paper onto the second tray 522 inside the paper holder body 521. After the paper is placed, the distance between the enclosures 5213 can be reduced by rotating the positioning screw 5214 in the opposite direction, thus adapting the size of the paper holder body 521 to the size of the paper. The positioning screw 5214 also allows the paper holder body 521 to accommodate paper of different sizes, broadening the applicability of this paper holder assembly.

[0079] The upper end of the enclosure 5213 is provided with a limiting block 5215, and the side of the limiting block 5215 near the inside of the paper holder body 521 is located in the area of ​​the upper opening of the paper holder body 521.

[0080] The limit block 5215 prevents the paper below from exiting the paper body along with the paper picked up by the feeding component, ensuring that the feeding component only takes one sheet of paper at a time, which helps reduce paper waste.

[0081] Each of the limiting blocks 5215 is provided with at least two strip holes 5216, and the upper end of each of the surrounding plates 5213 is threadedly connected with a limiting screw that corresponds one-to-one with the strip holes 5216 on the limiting block 5215. The top of the limiting screw is provided with a limiting nut 5218. The limiting screw is slidably connected to the strip holes 5216, and the limiting nut 5218 is located on the top of the limiting block 5215.

[0082] By providing a slotted hole 5216 on the limiting block 5215 and a limiting screw on the surrounding plate 5213, the limiting nut 5218 is no longer pressing against the limiting block 5215 when the limiting screw is rotated. This allows the position of the limiting block 5215 to be adjusted, enabling it to be positioned at the upper opening of the paper holder body 521 according to the size of the paper. This allows the limiting block 5215 to better limit the paper inside the paper holder body 521. Furthermore, when adding paper to the paper holder body 521, the limiting block 5215 can be moved away from the upper opening of the paper holder body 521 to prevent it from obstructing the insertion of paper. When it is necessary to fix the limiting block 5215, simply rotate the limiting screw so that the limiting nut 5218 engages with the upper end of the surrounding plate 5213 to press against the limiting block 5215, thus achieving the purpose of fixing the limiting block 5215.

[0083] The paper holder body 521 is equipped with an air knife 5219 on its exterior for separating adjacent sheets of paper. When the paper-picking component picks up paper, air is blown through the air knife 5219 towards the opening at the upper end of the paper holder body 521, causing adjacent sheets of paper to separate. This further ensures that the sheets below are not sucked out of the paper body along with the sheets picked up by the paper-picking component, ensuring that the paper-picking component takes up only one sheet of paper at a time, thus reducing paper waste. In specific use, the air knife 5219 is connected to an external air duct, allowing the external air duct to supply air to the air knife 5219 to achieve the purpose of blowing air.

[0084] The air nozzle of the air knife 5219 is flat and horizontally positioned, which is more conducive to separating adjacent sheets of paper.

[0085] The paper lifting assembly 523 includes a paper lifting screw 5231, at least two paper lifting guide rods 5232, a paper lifting nut 5233, a paper lifting connecting block 5234, a paper lifting motor 5235, and a paper lifting fixing frame 5236. The paper lifting fixing frame 5236 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the frame 10. The paper lifting motor 5235 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the paper lifting fixing frame 5236. The upper end of the paper lifting screw 5231 is rotatably connected to the top of the paper lifting fixing frame 5236. The lower end of the paper lifting screw 5231 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the paper lifting motor 5235. The paper lifting nut 5233 is installed on the paper lifting screw 5231 and threadedly connected to the paper lifting screw 5231. The paper lifting connecting block 5234 is fixedly connected to the paper lifting nut 5233. The lower end of the paper lifting guide rod 5232 is fixedly connected to the paper lifting connecting block 5234. The upper end of the paper lifting guide rod 5232 passes through the frame 10 and is fixedly connected to the second support plate 522. The paper lifting guide rod 5232 is slidably connected to the frame 10.

[0086] When the paper lifting assembly 523 drives the second pallet 522 to rise and fall, the paper lifting motor 5235 drives the paper lifting screw 5231 to rotate. Since the paper lifting nut 5233 is limited by the paper lifting guide rod 5232, when the paper lifting screw 5231 rotates, the paper lifting nut 5233 can only rise and fall along the paper lifting screw 5231 and cannot rotate with the paper lifting screw 5231. As a result, the second pallet 522 moves up and down under the action of the paper lifting nut 5233 and the paper lifting guide rod 5232. The cooperation between the paper lifting nut 5233 and the paper lifting screw 5231 makes the movement accuracy of the second pallet 522 higher, and can accurately adjust the second pallet 522 to a suitable height, so as to avoid the paper picking component being unable to pick up the paper smoothly due to the unsuitable height of the second pallet 522. On the other hand, the cooperation between the paper lifting nut 5233 and the paper lifting guide rod 5232 makes the movement of the second pallet 522 more stable, and the second pallet 522 is less prone to vibration, which can prevent the paper on the second pallet 522 from being shaken or falling off the second pallet 522.

[0087] The feeding mechanism 40, the stacking device 51, and the support device 35 are arranged sequentially in a straight line. The picking device 53 includes a support frame 531, a first picking lifting assembly 532, a second picking lifting assembly 533, a picking translation assembly 534, a first picking assembly 535, and a second picking assembly 536. The support frame 531 is mounted on the frame 10. The picking translation assembly 534 is mounted on the support frame 531 and is used to drive the first picking lifting assembly 532 and the second picking lifting assembly 533 to move horizontally between the feeding mechanism 40 and the paper holder device 52 simultaneously. The first picking lifting assembly 532 and the second picking lifting assembly 533 are connected to the picking translation assembly 534. The first picking lifting assembly 532 is used to drive the first picking assembly 535 to rise and fall, and the second picking lifting assembly 533 is used to drive the second picking assembly 536 to rise and fall. The first picking assembly 535 is used to pick up glass sheets, and the second picking assembly 536 is used to pick up paper.

[0088] The material picking translation component 534 includes a material picking horizontal guide rail 5341 mounted on a support frame 531, a material picking horizontal slider 5342 slidably connected to the material picking horizontal guide rail 5341, and a material picking translation drive component 5343 for driving the material picking horizontal slider 5342 to move horizontally in a straight line along the length direction of the material picking horizontal guide rail 5341. The length direction of the material picking horizontal guide rail 5341 is arranged along the direction from the feeding mechanism 40 to the paper holder device 52, and the material picking translation drive component 5343 is fixedly mounted on the material picking horizontal guide rail 5341.

[0089] The first material picking lifting assembly 532 includes a first material picking vertical guide rail 5321 disposed on the material picking translation slider, a first material picking lifting slider 5322 slidably connected to the first material picking vertical guide rail 5321, and a first material picking lifting drive member 5323 for driving the first material picking lifting slider 5322 to rise and fall along the length direction of the first material picking vertical guide rail 5321. The first material picking lifting drive member 5323 is disposed on the first material picking vertical guide rail 5321, and the length direction of the first material picking vertical guide rail 5321 is arranged in the vertical direction.

[0090] The second material picking lifting assembly 533 includes a second material picking vertical guide rail 5331 disposed on the material picking translation slider, a second material picking lifting slider 5332 slidably connected to the second material picking vertical guide rail 5331, and a second material picking lifting drive member 5333 for driving the second material picking lifting slider 5332 to rise and fall along the length direction of the second material picking vertical guide rail 5331. The second material picking lifting drive member 5333 is disposed on the second material picking vertical guide rail 5331, and the length direction of the second material picking vertical guide rail 5331 is arranged in the vertical direction. The second material picking lifting assembly 533 is arranged side by side with the first material picking lifting assembly 532, and the second material picking lifting assembly 533 is located away from the feeding mechanism 40. When the first material picking lifting assembly 532 is located above the stacking device 51, the second material picking lifting assembly 533 is located above the paper holder device 52.

[0091] The first material handling component 535 includes a first material handling adjustment plate 5351 fixedly connected to the lower end of the first material handling lifting slider 5322 and a first material handling suction nozzle 5352 disposed on the first material handling adjustment plate 5351.

[0092] The second material handling component 536 includes a second material handling adjustment plate 5361 fixedly connected to the lower end of the second material handling lifting slider 5332 and a second material handling suction nozzle 5362 disposed on the second material handling adjustment plate 5361.

[0093] When the material handling device 53 handles material, the first material handling suction nozzle 5352 and the second material handling suction nozzle 5362 are first connected to an air pump through an air pipe. The material handling translation drive component 5343 drives the material handling translation slider to move linearly along the length of the material handling horizontal guide rail 5341. When the material handling translation slider moves, it drives the first material handling lifting component 532, the first material handling component 535, the second material handling lifting component 533, and the second material handling component 536 to move synchronously. When the first material handling component 535 moves above the feeding mechanism 40, the second material handling component 536 moves to the stack. Above the sheet-feeding device 51, the first material-picking lifting drive 5323 is activated. The first material-picking lifting drive 5323 drives the first material-picking lifting slider 5322 and the first material-picking assembly 535 to move downwards synchronously until the first material-picking nozzle 5352 moves to contact the glass sheet on the feeding mechanism 40. At this point, the air pump connected to the first material-picking nozzle 5352 draws air, making the air pressure between the first material-picking nozzle 5352 and the glass sheet lower than atmospheric pressure. This causes the glass sheet to be picked up by the first material-picking nozzle 5352, and then the first material-picking lifting drive 5323 drives the first material-picking lifting slider 5322 and the first material-picking assembly 535 to move downwards synchronously until the first material-picking suction nozzle 5352 moves to contact the glass sheet on the feeding mechanism 40. The first picking-up lifting slider 5322, the first picking-up component 535, and the glass sheet rise synchronously, causing the glass sheet to leave the feeding mechanism 40. Then, the picking-up translation drive 5343 drives the picking-up translation slider, the first picking-up lifting component 532, the first picking-up component 535, the glass sheet, the second picking-up lifting component 533, and the second picking-up component 536 to move away from the feeding mechanism 40 until the first picking-up component 535 moves above the stacking device 51. At this point, the second picking-up component 536 moves above the paper holder device 52, and the process restarts. The first material handling lifting drive 5323 drives the first material handling lifting slider 5322 to move downward, which in turn causes the first material handling assembly 535 and the glass sheet to move downward until the glass sheet moves onto the first tray 511. The air pump connected to the first material handling suction nozzle 5352 slowly pumps gas into the first material handling suction nozzle 5352, so that the pressure between the first material handling suction nozzle 5352 and the glass sheet is equal to or greater than atmospheric pressure, thereby separating the first material handling suction nozzle 5352 and the glass sheet, and the glass sheet is placed on the first tray 511.When the first picking up lifting drive 5323 drives the first picking up lifting slider 5322 to move downward, the second picking up lifting drive 5333 simultaneously drives the second picking up lifting slider 5332 to move downward, thereby driving the second picking up assembly 536 to move downward until the second picking up suction nozzle 5362 moves to fit with the paper on the second tray 522. The air pump connected to the second picking up suction nozzle 5362 draws air to make the gas pressure between the second picking up suction nozzle 5362 and the paper less than the atmospheric pressure, thereby causing the paper to be sucked up by the second picking up suction nozzle 5362. Then, under the driving action of the second picking up lifting drive 5333, the paper leaves the paper holder device 52. Under the action of the picking up translation drive 5343, the second picking up assembly 536 picks up the paper and moves to the position of the stacking device 51, and places the paper above the glass plate of the stacking device 51. Under the action of the picking up translation drive 5343, the second picking up assembly 536 moves again to the feeding mechanism 40 to pick up the glass plate. The stacking is achieved through the cyclical operation of the material handling translation component 534, the first material handling lifting component 532, the second material handling lifting component 533, the first material handling component 535, and the second material handling component 536.

[0094] This invention, by placing the first picking component 535 and the second picking component 536 on the same picking translation slider, and arranging the feeding mechanism 40, the stacking device 51, and the paper holder device 52 sequentially on the same straight line, enables the first picking component 535 and the second picking component 536 to operate synchronously. This achieves the following: when the first picking component 535 picks up a glass sheet, the second picking component 536 places paper into the stacking device 51; when the first picking component 535 places a glass sheet into the stacking device 51, the second picking component 536 picks up paper from the paper holder device 52. This method is highly efficient and achieves the purpose of placing a piece of paper between each glass sheet to isolate adjacent glass sheets.

[0095] Both the first pick-up nozzle 5352 and the second pick-up nozzle 5362 are rubber nozzles. The rubber material is softer and more conducive to protecting the glass sheet.

[0096] Work process:

[0097] When stacking glass using the stacking machine of the present invention, the operator first places the material basket 60 containing glass sheets onto the first material rack 21 and the second material rack 22, so that the four supports 35 of the material basket 60 are locked between the positioning blocks 212 of the first material rack 21 and the second material rack 22. Then, the loading lifting drive 333 drives the loading lifting slider 332 to move downward, and the loading lifting slider 332 drives the sheet picking assembly 31 to descend synchronously until the first suction nozzle 312 descends to the height of the glass sheet. Then, the loading translation drive drives the loading vertical guide rail 331 to move towards the glass sheet, and the loading vertical guide rail 331 drives the loading lifting slider 332 and the sheet picking assembly 31 to move synchronously until the first suction nozzle 312 is in contact with the glass sheet. The first suction nozzle 312 begins to pick up material. The first air pump evacuates air from the first air pipe and the first suction nozzle 312, reducing the pressure between the first suction nozzle 312 and the glass sheet to below atmospheric pressure. This securely fixes the glass sheet to the first suction nozzle 312. The loading lifting drive 333 then drives the loading lifting slider 332, the first suction nozzle 312, and the glass sheet to rise synchronously, carrying the glass sheet away from the material basket 60. When the glass sheet rises above the upper surface of the feeding mechanism 40, the loading lifting assembly 33 stops driving the suction assembly, and the loading translation assembly 34 begins to drive the loading lifting assembly 33 towards the feeder. The feeding mechanism 40 moves horizontally until the glass sheet picking assembly 31 moves above the feeding mechanism 40, at which point the feeding translation assembly 34 stops. Then, the rotary drive assembly drives the glass sheet picking assembly 31 to rotate upwards by 90 degrees, so that the surface of the glass sheet faces downwards. Finally, the feeding lifting assembly 33 drives the glass sheet picking assembly 31 downwards to the upper surface of the feeding mechanism 40. An air pump slowly pumps gas into the first air pipe and the first suction nozzle 312, making the pressure between the first suction nozzle 312 and the glass sheet greater than or equal to atmospheric pressure, thereby separating the glass sheet from the first suction nozzle 312. The glass sheet is then placed on the conveyor belt 44, completing the feeding process. At this point, through the coordination of the rotary drive assembly, the feeding lifting assembly 33, and the feeding translation assembly 34, the glass sheet picking assembly 31 returns to the state and position of picking up the glass sheet, ready for the next round of picking.

[0098] After the glass sheet is conveyed onto the conveyor belt 44 by the feeding mechanism 30, it moves along the conveyor belt 44 towards the unloading mechanism 50. When the glass sheet reaches a position close to the unloading mechanism 50, the first picking component 535 moves above the feeding mechanism 40, and the second picking component 536 moves above the stacking device 51. The first picking lifting drive 5323 is activated, driving the first picking lifting slider 5322 and the first picking component 5326. 35 moves downwards synchronously until the first picking nozzle 5352 contacts the glass sheet on the feeding mechanism 40. At this point, the air pump connected to the first picking nozzle 5352 draws air, causing the air pressure between the first picking nozzle 5352 and the glass sheet to be lower than atmospheric pressure. This causes the glass sheet to be picked up by the first picking nozzle 5352, and then the first picking lifting drive 5323 drives the first picking lifting slider 5322, the first picking assembly 535, and the glass sheet to rise synchronously, causing the glass sheet to leave the feeding mechanism. 40. Further, the material handling translation drive 5343 drives the material handling translation slider, the first material handling lifting assembly 532, the first material handling assembly 535, the glass sheet, the second material handling lifting assembly 533, and the second material handling assembly 536 to move away from the feeding mechanism 40 until the first material handling assembly 535 moves above the stacking device 51. At this time, the second material handling assembly 536 moves above the paper holder device 52, and the first material handling lifting drive 5323 is activated again to drive the first material handling lifting assembly 536. The sliding block 5322 moves downward, which in turn causes the first material picking lifting slider 5322 to drive the first material picking assembly 535 and the glass sheet to move downward until the glass sheet moves onto the first tray 511. The air pump connected to the first material picking nozzle 5352 slowly pumps gas into the first material picking nozzle 5352, so that the pressure between the first material picking nozzle 5352 and the glass sheet is equal to or greater than atmospheric pressure, thereby separating the first material picking nozzle 5352 and the glass sheet, and the glass sheet is placed on the first tray 511.When the first material picking lifting drive 5323 drives the first material picking lifting slider 5322 to move downward, the second material picking lifting drive 5333 simultaneously drives the second material picking lifting slider 5332 to move downward, thereby driving the second material picking assembly 536 to move downward until the second material picking nozzle 5362 moves to the point where it is in contact with the paper on the second tray 522. At this point, the air pump connected to the second material picking nozzle 5362 draws air to make the gas pressure between the second material picking nozzle 5362 and the paper less than the atmospheric pressure, thereby causing the paper to be picked up by the second material picking nozzle 5362 and then passed through... Driven by the second picking-up lifting drive 5333, the paper leaves the paper holder device 52. Simultaneously, the second picking-up suction nozzle 5362 picks up the paper, while the air knife 5219 blows air onto the paper below the second suction nozzle, separating the paper. Under the action of the picking-up translation drive 5343, the second picking-up assembly 536 picks up the paper and moves it to the stacking device 51, placing the paper above the glass plate of the stacking device 51. Then, under the action of the picking-up translation drive 5343, the second picking-up assembly 536 moves again to the feeding mechanism 40 to pick up the glass plate. Through the cyclical action of the picking-up translation assembly 534, the first picking-up lifting assembly 532, the second picking-up lifting assembly 533, the first picking-up assembly 535, and the second picking-up assembly 536, the stacking purpose is achieved.
