Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of empty bottle palletizing equipment, and in particular relates to a fully automatic and efficient bottle palletizing machine. Background Art

[0002] Existing automated palletizing equipment mostly uses a conveying platform for direct transmission. A large number of empty bottles are piled up on the platform, which is prone to bottle toppling. When bottles fall, they need to be manually supported, which is prone to secondary pollution. At the same time, when the bottles are held to the palletizing station, they are lifted and lowered for palletizing. If the bottles are held too tightly, they are easy to be scratched. If the bottles are held too loosely, the vibrations generated can easily cause the bottles to fall off, resulting in low efficiency of the entire production process and the inability to completely get rid of manual labor.

[0034] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0035] like Figure 1 As shown, a fully automatic and efficient bottle stacking machine includes a bottle feeding mechanism 1, an automatic arrangement and pushing mechanism 2, an empty bottle sorting chain platform 3, a bottle holding and moving mechanism 4, a layer partition storage bin 5, a bottle stacking mechanism 6 and a bottom support storage bin 7. The bottle stacking machine is also provided with a maintenance operation platform 9, and maintenance can be carried out on the maintenance operation platform 9 when a fault occurs.

[0036] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 The bottle feeding mechanism 1 comprises a bottle feeding partition 12, a full bottle sensor 13 and a cut-off mechanism 14. The bottle feeding chain 11 is formed by a plurality of bottle feeding partitions 12 which are spaced a certain distance apart and arranged in parallel with each other. The full bottle sensor 13 is arranged at the left end of the bottle feeding mechanism 1, and the cut-off mechanism 14 is arranged at the right end of the bottle feeding mechanism 1. The full bottle sensor 13 controls the cut-off mechanism 14 to cut off the bottle conveyance. When a certain number of bottles enter, the full bottle sensor 13 detects a feedback signal through the sensor, and then cuts off the bottle conveyance through the cut-off mechanism 14.

[0037] The automatic arrangement and pushing mechanism 2 is provided with a bottle pushing rack 21, a bottle feeding mechanism 22, a lifting mechanism 23, a dislocation cut-off mechanism 24 and a bottle pushing cylinder 25. A bottle feeding tunnel 221 is provided at the lower end of the bottle feeding mechanism 22. A dislocation cut-off mechanism 24 is provided on one side of the bottle feeding mechanism 22, and a bottle feeding chain 11 is provided on the other side. The bottle feeding tunnel 221 is connected with the bottle feeding chain 11. Self-sliding chain plates 15 are provided under the bottle feeding tunnel 221 and the bottle feeding chain 11. The bottle feeding mechanism 22 is fixed at the lower end of the bottle pushing rack 21. A lifting mechanism 23 is provided at the side end of the bottle pushing rack 21. A bottle pushing cylinder 25 is fixed on the lifting mechanism 23. The bottles reach the bottle feeding tunnel 221 through the bottle feeding chain 11. When all the bottle feeding tunnels 221 are full of bottles, the bottle pushing cylinder 25 drives the bottle feeding mechanism 22 to move as a whole to the empty bottle sorting chain platform 3. At the same time, the lifting mechanism 23 lifts the bottle feeding mechanism 22 to separate the bottles from the bottle feeding tunnel 221. Then the bottle pushing cylinder 25 drives the bottle feeding mechanism 22 back to its original position. The bottle feeding mechanism 22 and the bottle feeding tunnel 221 are made of high-strength non-metallic material and are integrally formed. The dislocation cut-off mechanism 24 is provided with a dislocation cylinder 241. The dislocation arrangement of the empty bottles is controlled by controlling the stroke of the dislocation cylinder 241.

[0038] like Figure 4 As shown, the empty bottle sorting chain platform 3 includes a sorting chain 31, a first cut-off mechanism 32 and a second cut-off mechanism 33. The first cut-off mechanism 32 and the second cut-off mechanism 33 divide the sorting chain 31 into a bottle pushing storage position 311, a sorting storage position 312 and a waiting storage position 313. The first cut-off mechanism 32 and the second cut-off mechanism 33 are both provided with a lifting cylinder 35. A conveying motor 34 is provided on the side of the sorting chain 31. The bottle pushing rack 21 pushes the bottle into the empty bottle sorting chain platform 3 and enters the bottle pushing storage position 311. The first cut-off mechanism 32 limits the bottles to the bottle pushing storage position 311. When the bottles reach the set number, the lifting cylinder 35 controls the first cut-off mechanism 32 to rise, so that the bottles enter the sorting storage position 312, and the first cut-off mechanism 32 descends. At this time, the first cut-off mechanism 32 and the second cut-off mechanism 33 control the bottles to stay in the sorting storage position 312. Similarly, after multiple transportations, when the bottles in the sorting storage position 312 reach the set number, the second cut-off mechanism 33 rises, and the bottles move to the waiting storage position 313 driven by the sorting chain 31.

[0039] like Figure 5As shown, the bottle holding moving mechanism 4 includes two slide rails 43 relatively arranged on both sides of the empty bottle sorting chain platform 3, a bottle holding mechanism 42 is arranged between the two slide rails 43, a layer partition suction mechanism 41 is fixed on the left side of the bottle holding mechanism 42, and a moving reduction motor 44 for controlling the movement of the bottle holding mechanism 42 is fixed on the bottle holding moving mechanism 4. When the number of bottles on the waiting storage position 313 reaches the set number, the moving reduction motor 44 controls the bottle holding mechanism 42 to move to the right to reach the upper end of the waiting storage position 313, and the lifting cylinder 35 provided on the bottle holding mechanism 42 controls the bottle holding mechanism 4 2 is lowered and held tightly, when the lifting cylinder 35 controls the bottle holding mechanism 42 to rise and move to the leftmost end, the bottle holding mechanism 42 is located on the bottle stacking mechanism 6, and the layer partition plate suction mechanism 41 is located on the layer partition plate storage bin 5. At this time, the layer partition plate suction mechanism 41 sucks the layer partition plates on the layer partition plate storage bin 5, and the bottle holding mechanism 42 places the whole layer of bottles on the bottom support plate on the bottle stacking mechanism 6. When the bottle holding mechanism 42 moves to the rightmost end, the layer partition plate suction mechanism 41 reaches the upper end of the whole layer of bottles placed, and the bottle holding mechanism 42 reaches the upper end of the waiting storage position 313, and the cycle repeats.

[0040] like Figure 6 As shown, the partition storage bin 5 includes a partition storage rack 51, a lifting synchronous guide rail 52, a partition fork rod 53 and a partition lifting motor 54. A lifting synchronous guide rail 52 is provided on one side of the partition storage rack 51. The partition fork rod 53 is slidably arranged on the lifting synchronous guide rail 52. A partition lifting motor 54 is provided on the rear side of the lifting synchronous guide rail 52. The partitions are placed on the partition fork rod 53. When the partition suction mechanism 41 reaches the upper end of the partition and sucks a partition, the partition lifting motor 54 drives the partition fork rod 53 to rise on the synchronous guide rail 52 to realize the positioning of the partition suction position.

[0041] like Figure 7 As shown, the bottle stacking mechanism 6 includes a lifting frame 64, and the side ends on both sides of the lifting frame 64 are provided with double-row chains 63. The upper and lower ends of the double-row chains 63 are axially connected to the frame 8. The upper ends of the double-row chains 63 arranged on both sides are connected with lifting reduction motors 61. The two lifting reduction motors 61 are connected through a universal joint transmission rod 62 to make the double-row chains 63 rise and fall synchronously. The bottle stacking mechanism 6 is located at the lower end of the bottle holding and moving mechanism 4, and the bottom support plate is placed on the lifting frame 64. The bottom support plate on the lifting frame 64 is lifted to a position horizontal with the sorting chain path 31 by the lifting reduction motor 61. When the bottle holding mechanism 42 moves to the leftmost end, the bottom support plate receives the whole layer of bottles, and the layer partition suction mechanism 41 reaches the upper end of the placed whole layer of bottles, and puts the layer partition on the upper end of the received whole layer of bottles. At this time, the lifting reduction motor 61 controls the lifting frame 64 to descend, so that the layer partition at the upper end of the bottle is level with the sorting chain path 31.

[0042] like Figure 8As shown, the bottom pallet storage bin 7 includes a main frame 71, an output chain path 72, a fork plate mechanism 73, side guide columns 74 and a pallet lifting motor 75. The output chain path 72 is arranged at the lower end of the main frame 71 and extends to the lifting frame 64. A plurality of side guide columns 74 are arranged along the inner side of the main frame 71. The main frame 71 is also provided with a fork plate mechanism 73 and a pallet lifting motor 75. When in use, a forklift is used to put a plurality of stacked bottom pallets onto the output chain path 72, and the side guide columns 74 arranged along the periphery are used for guidance. The fork plate mechanism 73 forks the second bottom pallet on the bottom layer, and the lifting pallet lifting motor 75 is used to lift the entire bottom pallet, leaving only the bottom pallet on the output chain path 72, and the output chain path 72 sends the bottom pallet onto the lifting frame 64.

[0043] Another embodiment of the present invention can also perform high-position operations. In this case, a frame 8 is added, and the frame 8 includes a bearing platform 81 and a ladder 82. The bottle feeding mechanism 1, the automatic arrangement and pushing mechanism 2, the empty bottle sorting chain platform 3, the bottle holding and moving mechanism 4 and the layer partition storage bin 5 are all arranged on the bearing platform 81, the bottle stacking mechanism 6 is arranged under the bearing platform 81 and is in a low position, the bottom pallet storage bin 7 is arranged on the left side of the frame 8, the ladder 82 is set up on the side of the bearing platform 81, and the output chain 72 is in a low position and extends to the lifting frame 64. At this time, high-position operations can be performed, and workers can go up to the bearing platform 81 via the ladder 82 to check the working conditions.

[0044] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention, and the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. There may be local minor structural changes during the implementation process. If the various changes or modifications of the present invention do not depart from the spirit and scope of the present invention and fall within the scope of the claims and equivalent technologies of the present invention, the invention is also intended to include these changes and modifications.
