[0039] The working principle of the production line for recycling insulated boxes and ice plates of the present invention is as follows: The insulated box 5 containing ice plates to be recycled is placed on the conveying device 1. The conveying device 1 transports the insulated box 5 to the vicinity of the clamping and flipping mechanism 21. The clamping and flipping mechanism 21 clamps the insulated box 5 and flips it. After the insulated box 5 is flipped, the ice plates inside it are poured onto the ice plate conveying mechanism 22.

[0041] In some embodiments, the clamping assembly 211 includes a mounting plate 2111, a movable plate 2112, a fixed jaw 2113, a movable jaw 2114, a translation power component 2115, and a clamping baffle 2116.

Only the ice plates that are laid flat on the belt 2222 and between the partition bars 2224 can pass under the limiting rod 2223. Since the belt 2222 is inclined, the ice plates blocked by the limiting rod 2223 can fall downward until they are laid flat between the partition bars 2224 on the belt 2222. The distance between the limiting rod 2223 and the belt 2222 can be set as required to adapt to different production requirements. Preferably, the distance between the limiting rod 2223 and the belt 2222 is greater than the thickness of the ice plate and less than twice the thickness of the ice plate.

The computer controls the servo motor to output rotary power according to the colors of the ice boards photographed by the CCD camera 236, driving the turntable 235 to rotate in different directions or rotate by different angles, and finally releasing ice boards of different colors in the material distribution port 2351 from different material dropping ports 2341 into the transfer box 4 to complete the automatic sorting and recycling of the ice boards. When one of the material distribution ports 2351 on the turntable 235 is loaded with ice boards, the turntable 235 rotates 90°, and the ice boards can be released into the material dropping ports 2341. At this time, another material distribution port 2351 has been rotated to the side of the conveying track 231 and is used to receive ice boards. Therefore, the turntable 235 can continuously receive ice boards without rotating and resetting, and the efficiency of ice board sorting is high. The ice boards enter below the pressing plate 2373 from the material box inlet and then enter the material distribution port 2351 from the material box outlet. The pressing plate 2373 is beneficial to guiding the ice boards into the lower material distribution port 2351 and preventing the ice boards from warping. Since the cover plate 2372 is hinged to the box body 2371, the cover plate 2372 can be lifted to manually take out the ice boards in the material box. If the ice boards are stuck, it can be easily solved. Since the pressing plate 2373 is movably connected to the box body 2371 through a connecting rod 2121, when the ice boards are stuck, the pressing plate 2373 can be easily lifted to take out the ice boards. The top plate 238 is used to cover the turntable 235 and limit the ice boards under the top plate 238, and the top plate 238 can also play a role in dust prevention. Using the inclined guide plate 239 can facilitate the ice boards to slide laterally into the transfer box 4.
[0046] In some embodiments, the ice plate tilting mechanism 31 includes a fixed frame 311, a movable frame 312, a lifting cylinder 313, and a stop bar assembly 314; the upper right part of the fixed frame 311 is hinged to the upper left part of the movable frame 312; a sliding plate 315 is provided at the bottom of the movable frame 312, and the sliding plate 315 is used to support the transfer box 4. Openings are provided at the top and the right part of the movable frame 312. The opening at the right part of the movable frame 312 allows the transfer box 4 to enter and exit. A transfer discharge opening is provided at the top of the transfer box 4, and the opening at the top of the movable frame 312 is communicated with the transfer discharge opening 2211; the lifting cylinder 313 is hinged to both the lower part of the fixed frame 311 and the middle part of the movable frame 312; the stop bar assembly 314 includes a stop bar body, the stop bar body is connected to the fixed frame 311, the stop bar body is arranged above the transfer box 4, and the right end of the stop bar body is inclined upward; the fixed frame 311 is connected to the feeding hopper 32.
[0047] Further, the ice plate tilting mechanism 31 further includes a telescopic cylinder 316 and a push rod 317. The telescopic cylinder 316 is connected to the movable frame 312. The output end of the telescopic cylinder 316 is connected to the push rod 317 and drives the push rod 317 to move left and right. The transfer box 4 is provided on the right side of the push rod 317.
[0048] Before the ice plate tilting mechanism 31 is used, the transfer box 4 filled with ice plates needs to be pushed into the sliding plate 315 from the opening at the right part of the movable frame 312 first. The lifting cylinder 313 is used to push the movable frame 312 so that the movable frame 312 can flip around the hinge with the fixed frame 311. The sliding plate 315 at the bottom of the movable frame 312 drives the transfer box 4 to flip together with the movable frame 312. After flipping to a certain height, the transfer box 4 bypasses from below the baffle assembly to the obliquely upper side of the baffle assembly. The baffle body is used to block the transfer box 4 from falling, and the ice plates in the transfer box 4 can fall from the transfer box. Then, the lifting cylinder 313 drives the transfer box 4 and the movable frame 312 to reset. The transfer box 4 can be pulled out from the opening at the right part of the movable frame 312, and the transfer box 4 can continue to be used for loading ice plates. The ice plates in the transfer box 4 can be quickly tilted out by the lifting cylinder 313. Moreover, it is very convenient to push the transfer box 4 filled with ice plates into the movable frame 312 and pull out the empty transfer box 4 from the movable frame 312. Compared with using a gantry to suspend the transfer box 4, the ice plate tilting mechanism 31 of the present invention has the advantages of convenient and fast use. By driving the push rod 317 to move to the right by the telescopic cylinder 316, the transfer box 4 in the movable frame 312 can be pushed to the right, which is convenient for workers to pull out the transfer box 4 from the right side of the movable frame 312.
[0049] In some embodiments, the ice slab output mechanism 33 includes a frame assembly 331 and a lifting assembly 332; the frame assembly 331 includes more than two fixed steps 3311 arranged front to back, the heights of the fixed steps 3311 increase sequentially backward, an activity gap 3312 is provided between adjacent fixed steps 3311, a frame installation space is provided below the fixed steps 3311, and the activity gap 3312 communicates with the frame installation space; the lifting assembly 332 includes a movable bracket 3321, a driving component 3322 and a plurality of movable steps 3323, the driving component 3322 is connected to both the fixed steps 3311 and the movable bracket 3321 and drives the movable bracket 3321 to move up and down, and the plurality of movable steps 3323 are all connected to the movable bracket 3321; the movable steps 3323 are arranged in the activity gap 3312, both the movable bracket 3321 and the driving component 3322 are arranged in the frame installation space, the movable steps 3323 are arranged in a staggered manner with the fixed steps 3311, the top surfaces of the fixed steps 3311 and the movable steps 3323 are inclined backward, when the movable steps 3323 move to the lowest position, the front end of the top surface of the movable steps 3323 is lower than the rear end of the top surface of the fixed steps 3311 on its front side, and when the movable steps 3323 move to the highest position, the rear end of the top surface of the movable steps 3323 is higher than the front end of the top surface of the fixed steps 3311 on its rear side; the feeding hopper 32 sends the ice slab to the movable steps 3323 located at the frontmost side.
[0050] The driving component 3322 drives the movable support 3321 and the movable step 3323 to move up and down. Since the movable step 3323 and the fixed step 3311 are staggered, the height of the fixed step 3311 increases successively backward, and the top surfaces of both the fixed step 3311 and the movable step 3323 are inclined backward. When the movable step 3323 moves to the lowest position, the front end of the top surface of the movable step 3323 is lower than the rear end of the top surface of the fixed step 3311 in front of it. When the movable step 3323 moves to the highest position, the rear end of the top surface of the movable step 3323 is higher than the front end of the top surface of the fixed step 3311 behind it. Therefore, after the movable step 3323 rises, the ice plate on the top of the movable step 3323 can slide backward onto the fixed step 3311. After the movable step 3323 descends, the ice plate on the fixed step 3311 can slide backward onto the movable step 3323. Thus, the ice plate can be continuously transported backward. After the ice plate is dumped onto the fixed step 3311 or the movable step 3323, the movable step 3323 transports the ice plate upward and backward step by step. The maximum transportation capacity of each movable step 3323 is fixed. Therefore, the movable step 3323 can transport a certain amount of ice plates away, and the output of the ice plates is relatively uniform. While transporting the ice plate backward, the ice plate output mechanism 33 can also lift the ice plate upward. The ice plate can only be laid flat on the fixed step 3311 and the movable step 3323. The ice plates standing upright or leaning obliquely on the fixed step 3311 and the movable step 3323 are likely to fall down during transportation and then lie flat on the fixed step 3311 or the movable step 3323. The ice plates can be stacked on the fixed step 3311 and the movable step 3323, and the transportation volume of the ice plates is large.
[0051] In some embodiments, a lid closing device 6 is further included. The lid closing device 6 is provided at the right part of the conveying device 1. The lid closing device 6 includes a lid closing power component 61, a wheel brush 62 and a guide rail 63. The lid closing power component 61 drives the wheel brush 62 to rotate around an axis arranged in the left-right direction. The guide rail 63 is provided on the right side of the wheel brush 62. The guide rail 63 includes a transition section 631, a lifting section 632 and a pressing section 633 arranged in sequence from left to right. The transition section 631 gradually rises and gradually inclines backward from left to right. The lifting section 632 gradually rises from left to right. The pressing section 633 extends from left to right and inclines forward at the same time. A propulsion mechanism 64 is further provided on the left side of the wheel brush 62. The propulsion mechanism 64 includes a propulsion driver connected to the conveying device 1 and a push plate 641 connected to the output end of the propulsion driver. The push plate 641 is provided at the front part of the conveying device 1. The propulsion driver drives the push plate 641 to move back and forth. A reference rod 65 is further included. The reference rod 65 is provided on the opposite side of the push plate 641 and is connected to the conveying device 1. The reference rod 65 is provided on the left side of the wheel brush 62. A contact rod 66 is further included. The contact rod 66 is provided on the front side of the wheel brush 62.
[0052] The heat preservation box 5 includes a heat preservation box cover body 51 suspended at its rear part. When the heat preservation box 5 passes through the wheel brush 62, the wheel brush 62 can lift the bottom edge of the heat preservation box cover body 51 obliquely upward by a certain height during the rotation process, so that there is a certain gap between the heat preservation box cover body 51 and the box body. The heat preservation box 5 continues to move. The left end of the transition section 631 is used to extend beside the heat preservation cover body. During the process of the box body running leftward, it is easy to have continuous friction with the transition section 631, which may cause the box body to be blocked when running leftward. And the transition section 631 gradually rises and gradually inclines backward from right to left, so that only the left part of the transition section 631 contacts the cover body and does not contact the box body, which can reduce the obstruction of the transition section 631 to the box body. The heat preservation box cover body 51 can be lifted by the lifting section 632, and then the box body continues to move until the pressing section 633 extends under the heat preservation box cover body 51. The pressing section 633 can push the heat preservation box cover body 51 so that the upper part of the heat preservation box cover body 51 tilts forward and covers the box body, completing the transformation of the heat preservation box 5 from the open-lid state to the closed-lid state.
[0053] The function of the push plate 641 is to push the heat preservation box 5 on the conveying mechanism towards the reference rod 65, so that the heat preservation box 5 runs leftward along the reference rod 65 to ensure that the heat preservation box cover body 51 can contact the wheel brush 62, avoid the failure of closing the lid of the heat preservation box 5 on the conveying mechanism, and improve the reliability of the lid closing device for the heat preservation box 5. Since the contact component has a certain acting force on the heat preservation box 5, and this acting force has a component force in the forward direction, the heat preservation box 5 has a tendency to move away from the wheel brush 62. Therefore, it is necessary to set the contact rod 66 to limit the position of the heat preservation box 5 to prevent the wheel brush 62 from failing to lift the heat preservation box cover body 51 successfully.
