[0029] The present invention provides an automatic loading and unloading device for loading and unloading stacked sheet assemblies and pads provided at the bottom of the sheet assemblies. The sheet assemblies include sheet bodies and spacers; the sheet bodies are provided with multiple layers, and multiple pieces are arranged side by side in each layer of the sheet body, and the spacers are clamped between adjacent layers of the sheet bodies.

[0030] In the embodiments of the present invention, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2, the automatic loading and unloading device includes a feeding conveyor mechanism 100, a sheet separation and processing conveyor mechanism 200, a feeding manipulator 300, a spacer conveyor mechanism 400, a backing plate conveyor mechanism 500, a discharging and integrating conveyor mechanism 600 and a discharging manipulator 900; the feeding conveyor mechanism 100 is used to carry and convey sheet assemblies and backing plates; the feeding conveyor mechanism 100 has a feeding end and an output end arranged oppositely; one end of the sheet separation and processing conveyor mechanism 200 is connected to the output end of the feeding conveyor mechanism 100; the feeding manipulator 300 is arranged close to the feeding conveyor mechanism 100 for picking and placing the sheet body of each layer on the feeding conveyor mechanism 100 to the feeding separation mechanism; one end of the spacer conveyor mechanism 400 is connected to the output end of the feeding conveyor mechanism 100; one end of the backing plate conveyor mechanism 500 is connected to the output end of the feeding conveyor mechanism 100, and the backing plate conveyor mechanism 500, the spacer conveyor mechanism 400 and the feeding separation mechanism are arranged in parallel; the discharging and integrating conveyor mechanism 600 has a feeding end and a feeding end arranged oppositely, and the other end of the sheet separation and processing conveyor mechanism 200, the other end of the spacer conveyor mechanism 400 and the other end of the backing plate conveyor mechanism 500 are all connected to the feeding end of the discharging and integrating conveyor mechanism 600; the discharging manipulator 900 is arranged close to the discharging and integrating conveyor mechanism 600 for placing the sheet body of the sheet separation and processing conveyor mechanism 200 and the spacers on the spacer conveyor mechanism 400 onto the discharging and integrating conveyor mechanism 600.

[0031] By providing the feeding conveyor mechanism 100, which is used to carry and convey sheet assemblies and the backing plates arranged at the bottom of the sheet assemblies, the effect of being able to convey multiple sheet bodies at one time through the feeding conveyor mechanism 100 can be achieved. Since the feeding conveyor mechanism 100 has a feeding end and an output end, when the sheet assemblies and the backing plates are arranged on the feeding conveyor mechanism 100, they can move in the direction from the feeding end to the output end of the feeding conveyor mechanism 100. In addition, in the technical solution of the present invention, one end of the sheet separation and processing conveyor mechanism 200 is connected to the output end of the feeding conveyor mechanism 100, and the feeding manipulator 300 is arranged close to the feeding conveyor mechanism 100, so that the feeding manipulator 300 can pick and place the sheet body of each layer on the feeding conveyor mechanism 100 to the sheet separation and processing conveyor mechanism 200. Then, after the multiple sheets are separated one by one on the sheet separation and processing conveyor mechanism 200, each sheet is processed and conveyed out. Specifically, the feeding manipulator 300 can pick and place multiple side-by-side sheet bodies in one layer at the same time, or pick and place one sheet body in each layer. For the sake of higher production efficiency, the feeding manipulator 300 in the technical solution of the present invention is preferably selected to pick and place multiple side-by-side sheet bodies in one layer at the same time.

[0032] In addition, one end of the spacer conveying mechanism 400 and one end of the backing plate conveying mechanism 500 in the technical solution of the present invention are also connected to the output end of the feeding conveying mechanism 100. Thus, the backing plate conveying mechanism 500, the spacer conveying mechanism 400, and the sheet separation and processing conveying mechanism 200 are arranged in parallel. Therefore, the sheet body and the backing plate conveyed from the feeding conveying mechanism 100 can be conveyed simultaneously through three lines to achieve the simultaneous conveyance of the sheet body, the spacer, and the backing plate. Thus, when the sheet body completes the processing procedure and is to be integrated and discharged, the spacer and / or the backing plate are also conveyed to the corresponding positions simultaneously to wait for integration with the sheet body and discharge together. With such an arrangement, on the one hand, the time and cost of manually handling the sheet body, the spacer, and the backing plate are reduced. Moreover, when the three conveying mechanisms work simultaneously, the working time can be greatly saved, thereby improving the production efficiency. In the technical solution of the present invention, the other ends of the backing plate conveying mechanism 500 are all connected to the feeding end of the discharging and integrating conveying mechanism 600, so that the backing plates conveyed on the backing plate conveying mechanism 500 are received by the discharging and integrating conveying mechanism 600. In addition, the other end of the sheet separation and processing conveying mechanism 200 and the other end of the spacer conveying mechanism 400 are also connected to the feeding end of the discharging and integrating conveying mechanism 600. The discharging manipulator 900 is arranged close to the discharging and integrating conveying mechanism 600, so that the discharging manipulator 900 can pick and place the processed sheet body from the sheet separation and processing conveying mechanism 200 to the discharging and integrating conveying mechanism 600, and can pick and place the spacers conveyed to its other end by the spacer conveying mechanism 400 to the discharging and integrating conveying mechanism 600, so that the spacers are clamped between adjacent layers of the sheet body.

[0033] Specifically, the feeding and conveying mechanism 100 may include a motor, a driving wheel, a driven wheel and a conveyor belt. The motor is drivingly connected to the driving wheel. The driving wheel and the driven wheel are oppositely arranged. The conveyor belt is annular, and the annular conveyor belt is sleeved outside the driving wheel and the driven wheel. After the motor is started, the motor drives the driving wheel to rotate, and then the driving wheel drives the driven wheel to rotate through the conveyor belt. The sheet assembly and the backing plate are placed on the conveyor belt, and then when the conveyor belt moves, it drives the sheet assembly and the backing plate to move along with the conveyor belt. Alternatively, the feeding and conveying mechanism 100 may include a motor, a driving wheel, a driven wheel, a transmission belt and a conveying roller 214. The motor is drivingly connected to the driving wheel, and the driving wheel is at the feeding end; the driving wheel and the driven wheel are oppositely arranged, and the driven wheel is at the output end; the conveyor belt is annular, and the annular conveyor belt is sleeved outside the driving wheel and the driven wheel. The driven wheel is drivingly connected to the conveying roller 214. After the motor is started, the motor drives the driving wheel to rotate, and the driving wheel drives the driven wheel to rotate through the conveyor belt, so that the driven wheel drives the conveying roller 214 to rotate. The sheet assembly and the backing plate are placed on the conveying roller 214, so that the conveying roller 214 rotates to drive the sheet assembly and the backing plate to move in the direction perpendicular to the axis of the conveying roller 214. The discharging and integrating conveying mechanism 600 in the technical solution of the present invention may have the same structure as the feeding and conveying mechanism 100, or may have a different structure from the feeding and conveying mechanism 100. For simplicity of setting, the discharging and integrating conveying mechanism 600 has the same structure as the feeding and conveying mechanism 100, but each component of the discharging and integrating conveying mechanism 600 is symmetrically arranged with respect to the perpendicular bisector of the line connecting the two with each component of the feeding and conveying mechanism 100. Thus, by using the same components as the feeding and conveying mechanism 100 and an assembly method opposite to that of each component of the feeding and conveying mechanism 100, the effect of discharging and integrating conveying can be achieved. In addition, the discharging manipulator 900 may have the same structure as the feeding manipulator 300, or may have a different structure from the feeding manipulator 300, as long as it can achieve the effect of clamping or sucking the sheet body and the spacer bar.

[0034] The technical solution of the present invention realizes the effect of automatic feeding and processing of the sheet body by providing a feeding and conveying mechanism 100, which has a feeding end and an output end arranged oppositely, and one end of the sheet separating, processing and conveying mechanism 200 is connected to the output end of the feeding and conveying mechanism 100. In addition, the other end of the sheet separating, processing and conveying mechanism 200 is connected to the feeding end of the discharging and integrating conveying device, so that the processed sheet body is conveyed to the feeding end of the discharging and integrating conveying device, and then the discharging and integrating conveying device realizes the effect of automatic discharging of the sheet body. By connecting one end of the spacer conveying mechanism 400 and one end of the backing plate conveying mechanism 500 to the output end of the feeding and conveying mechanism 100, and the other end of the spacer conveying mechanism 400 and the other end of the backing plate conveying mechanism 500 are both connected to the feeding end of the discharging and integrating conveying device, the spacer conveying mechanism 400, the backing plate conveying mechanism 500 and the sheet separating, processing and conveying mechanism 200 are arranged in parallel. That is, after the three are started at the same time, the sheet body, the spacer and the backing plate are simultaneously conveyed to the feeding end of the discharging and integrating conveying device, and the effect of integrating and conveying the materials here is realized, thus further saving working time and labor costs and improving production efficiency.

[0035] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the feeding and conveying mechanism 100 includes a roller conveying device 110 and a first lifting device 120. One end of the roller conveying device 110 is the feeding end; one end of the first lifting device 120 is connected to the other end of the roller conveying device 110, and the other end of the first lifting device 120 is the output end. The feeding manipulator 300 is arranged close to the first lifting device 120.

[0036] The feeding conveying mechanism 100 includes a roller conveying device 110 and a first lifting device 120. One end of the roller conveying device 110 is the feeding end, and the other end is connected to the first lifting device 120. Thus, the end of the first lifting device 120 away from the roller conveying device 110 is the output end. Further, after workers carry the plate assembly and the backing plate to the roller conveying device 110, they can move to the first lifting device 120 under the drive of the roller conveying device 110, and further, the conveying effect of the plate assembly and the backing plate is realized on the feeding conveying mechanism 100. By arranging the feeding manipulator 300 close to the first lifting device 120, the feeding manipulator 300 can pick and place the plate body and the spacer on the first lifting device 120 onto the plate separating and processing conveying mechanism 200 and the spacer conveying mechanism 400 respectively. In addition, the first lifting device 120 can drive the stacked plate assembly and the backing plate to rise or fall, so as to adapt to the height of the manipulator for the manipulator to complete the picking and placing actions; or the first lifting device 120 can be lifted or lowered, so as to be able to adapt to the spacer conveying mechanism 400 to smoothly convey the spacer to the spacer conveying mechanism 400; or the first lifting device 120 can be lifted or lowered, so as to be able to adapt to the height of the backing plate conveying mechanism 500 to smoothly convey the backing plate to the backing plate conveying mechanism 500.

[0037] Further, in order to achieve the effect of conveying the spacer from the first lifting device 120 to the spacer conveying mechanism 400 or conveying the backing plate to the backing plate conveying mechanism 500, the first lifting device 120 may include a lifting drive assembly 713 and a platform connected to the lifting drive assembly 713. A plurality of rolling rollers are arranged on the platform in the direction from the feeding end to the output end. The rolling rollers are rotatably connected to the platform, and the plate assembly and the backing plate are placed on the rolling rollers. Thus, during the rotation of the rolling rollers, the plate assembly and the backing plate can be driven to move towards the output end.

[0038] Further, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the plate separating and processing conveying mechanism 200 includes a feeding separation device 210 and a processing device 220; the feeding separation device 210 is connected to the output end for separating each multi-branch plate layer by layer; the processing device 220 is connected to one end of the feeding separation device 210 away from the output end.

[0039] The feeding separation device 210 in the plate separating and processing conveying mechanism 200 is used to separate each multi-branch plate layer by layer, and then convey the single plate body to the processing device 220 for processing the single plate body.

[0040] It is understandable that when a layer of multiple parallel sheet bodies are simultaneously conveyed to the sheet separation processing conveying mechanism 200, the parallel sheet bodies remain in a state of multiple parallel sheets when conveyed by the sheet separation processing conveying mechanism 200, and when processed by the processing equipment 220, the processing equipment 220 can only process a single sheet, so during the processing of the single sheet, the parallel sheet bodies are easily piled up, making it difficult to continue to maintain the feeding separation device 210 to accurately convey the single sheet body to the processing equipment 220 again. By providing a feeding separation device 210, it can be avoided that when the processing equipment 220 processes a single sheet body, other sheet bodies are piled up and affect the subsequent conveying of the single sheet body to the processing equipment 220 again. In addition, by providing the feeding separation device 210, it is avoided that workers repeatedly carry the single sheet body to the processing equipment 220 for processing, thereby reducing labor costs, and can automatically supply raw materials to the processing equipment 220 one by one, thereby improving production efficiency.

[0041] Further, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The automatic loading and unloading device also includes an inspection machine 230 , which is disposed on a side of the processing equipment 220 away from the conveying roller 214 and is connected to the discharge integration conveying mechanism 600 .

[0042] By arranging the inspection machine 230 on one side of the raw material conveying roller 214 of the processing equipment 220 and connecting the material discharging integrated conveying mechanism 600, the plate body processed by the processing equipment 220 enters the inspection machine 230 for inspection after being conveyed out of the processing equipment 220. Furthermore, if the plate body inspected by the inspection machine 230 meets the requirements, it will continue to be conveyed to the material discharging integrated conveying mechanism 600 to achieve the material discharging effect. If the plate body inspected by the inspection machine 230 does not meet the requirements, a prompt message can be issued to sort it out by the operator or other manipulators to be unloaded. Specifically, the inspection machine 230 can be used to inspect the flatness or verticality of the plate body.

[0043] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2, in order to avoid the need to stop other mechanisms except the processing device 220 to ensure that the single-piece sheet body can be conveyed into the processing device 220 by the first conveying roller 214, the present invention provides an embodiment of the feeding and separating device 210: the feeding and separating device 210 includes a driving conveying component 211, a driven conveying component 212 and a stopping component 213; one end of the driving conveying component 211 is connected to the output end; one end of the driven conveying component 212 is docked with the other end of the driving conveying component 211; the stopping component 213 is movably arranged at the other end of the driving conveying component 211 and has a stopping position and an avoiding position. The stopping component 213 is located at the stopping position to stop the movement of the sheet body from the driving conveying component 211 to the driven conveying component 212; or the stopping component 213 is located at the avoiding position to avoid the movement of the sheet body from the driving conveying component 211 to the driven conveying component 212.

[0044] By connecting one end of the driving conveying component 211 to the output end of the feeding conveying mechanism 100, the multi-piece sheet bodies arranged side by side output from the output end of the feeding conveying mechanism 100 are moved to one end of the driving conveying component 211. In addition, by docking one end of the driven conveying component 212 with the other end of the driving conveying component 211 and movably arranging the stopping component 213 at the other end of the driving conveying component 211, after the multi-piece sheet bodies are conveyed to the other end of the driving conveying component 211, the stopping component 213 is in the avoiding position to avoid the sheet body closest to the driven conveying component 212 from passing through and being conveyed onto the driven conveying component 212, and at the same time the stopping component 213 is in the stopping position to block the subsequent sheet bodies from passing through. It can be understood that when the stopping component 213 blocks the subsequent sheet bodies from passing through, the above-mentioned feeding manipulator 300 can be in the process of moving towards the feeding conveying mechanism 100 and sucking the sheet body and transporting it to the feeding and separating mechanism at the same time. In the technical solution of the present invention, the time for a layer of multi-piece sheet bodies arranged side by side to pass through the stopping component 213 one by one and be conveyed to the driven conveying component 212 can be set to be the same as or approximately the same as the time taken for the feeding manipulator 300 to move towards the feeding conveying mechanism 100, suck another layer of sheet bodies, and then transport them to the feeding and separating mechanism. Thus, on the one hand, when the feeding and separating device 210 separates a layer of multi-piece sheet bodies arranged side by side, the feeding manipulator 300 can timely provide another layer of sheet bodies for it to ensure that the feeding and separating device 210 can keep working continuously; on the other hand, it can also avoid excessive accumulation of sheet bodies at the feeding and separating device 210, resulting in increased separation difficulty.

[0045] Specifically, the active conveying component 211 may include a plurality of active conveyor belts arranged side by side. When the plate body is in the shape of an elongated strip, the length direction of the plate body may be consistent with the side-by-side direction of the plurality of active conveyor belts, so that the plurality of active conveyor belts may simultaneously carry the plate body at different positions along the length direction to ensure the flatness of the elongated plate body during conveyance, and avoid severe bending and deformation due to the influence of the plate body's own gravity during the conveyance process.

[0046] Similarly, the driven conveying assembly 212 may also include a plurality of driven conveyor belts arranged side by side, and the side-by-side direction of the driven conveyor belts is consistent with the side-by-side direction of the active conveyor belts, thereby also being able to simultaneously carry the plate body at different positions along the length direction to ensure the flatness of the long strip plate body during conveyance, and to avoid severe bending deformation due to the influence of the plate body's own gravity during the conveyance process.

[0047] In addition, the stopper assembly 213 may include a stopper assembly 213 that at least partially extends upward when the stopper assembly 213 is in the stop position, thereby achieving a blocking effect on the plate body. Specifically, the stopper assembly 213 may include a drive assembly and a stopper connected to the drive assembly, the stopper being connected to the drive assembly, and the drive assembly drives the stopper to move upward or downward. Specifically, the drive assembly may be a cylinder; or the drive member 753 may include a motor, a gear and a rack, the gear being connected to the motor, the rack being meshed with the gear and the rack extending in the up-down direction, the stopper being connected to the upper end of the rack, so that the motor drives the gear to rotate, and then the gear drives the rack to rise or fall, so as to drive the stopper to rise or fall. Alternatively, the stop assembly 213 includes a motor, a rotating shaft and a lever, the lever is connected to the rotating shaft, the motor drives the rotating shaft to drive the rotating shaft to rotate forward and reverse, and then drives one end of the lever to tilt upward to stop the plate body, or drives one end of the lever to move downward to an avoidance position, so that the plate body can be transmitted to the driven transmission assembly 212 through the stop assembly 213.

[0048] Further, it can be understood that when the active transmission component 211 has multiple parallel active conveyor belts and the driven transmission component 212 has multiple parallel driven conveyor belts, the stopper component 213 can also have multiple stopper components 213 and be consistent with the parallel direction of the active conveyor belts. In order to enable multiple stopper components 213 to be in the stop position or the avoidance position at the same time, multiple stopper components 213 are arranged in linkage. Specifically, in order to achieve the linkage effect of multiple stopper components 213, the stopper component 213 may include multiple levers, and the feed separation device 210 also includes a stopper drive component and a rotating shaft. The stopper drive component drives the connecting rotating shaft, and the length extension direction of the rotating shaft is consistent with the parallel direction of the active conveyor belts. The rotating shaft is provided with multiple levers, and the multiple levers are spaced apart along the length extension direction of the rotating shaft, and each lever is arranged at the other end of the active transmission component 211, so that when the stopper drive component drives the rotating shaft to rotate, the rotating shaft simultaneously drives one end of each lever to rise or fall, thereby achieving the linkage effect of multiple stopper components 213.

[0049] Furthermore, if Figure 1 As shown, the active transmission component 211 includes at least two transmission segments that are connected to each other, and a stopper component 213 may be provided between the two transmission segments. By controlling the transmission speed of each transmission segment or by controlling the intermittent transmission of one transmission segment and controlling the intermittent time, the plate bodies located at the two transmission segments can be separated.

[0050] Furthermore, if Figure 1 As shown, the feed separation device 210 also includes a conveying roller 214, which is arranged at one end of the driven transmission component 212 away from the active transmission component 211, and the axis of the conveying roller 214 is parallel to the extension direction from the active transmission component to the driven transmission component 212, and the conveying roller 214 is connected to the processing equipment 220.

[0051] By arranging the conveying roller 214 at one end of the driven transmission component 212 away from the active transmission component 211, and the conveying roller 214 is connected to the processing equipment 220 by transmission, the plate body can be transported from the driven transmission component 212 to the conveying roller 214, and then the plate body is conveyed to the processing equipment 220 by the conveying roller 214 for processing. In addition, by making the axis of the conveying roller 214 parallel to the extending direction from the active transmission component to the driven transmission component 212, the conveying direction of the conveying roller 214 is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the active transmission component and the driven transmission component 212, so that the conveying direction of the plate body can be changed, so that the entire automatic loading and unloading device occupies a larger space in a single direction, and the plate body can move in the direction of entering the processing equipment 220 before the processing equipment 220, so as to ensure that the plate body entering the processing equipment 220 can continue to complete the processing process when it is transported along its conveying direction.

[0052] Specifically, the conveying roller 214 can be arranged on the side of the driven conveying component 212 away from the active conveying component 211 and docked with the driven conveying component 212. Alternatively, in the arrangement direction of the driven conveying component 212, the conveying roller 214 can be staggered with the end of the driven conveying component 212 away from the active conveying component 211, and the conveying roller 214 can be lifted or lowered, so that when the conveying roller 214 is lifted, it rotates to convey the sheet body; when the conveying roller 214 is lowered, it can provide an escape space for the driven conveying component 212 to transmit the sheet body, so as to prevent the conveying roller 214 from affecting the conveying process of the driven conveying component 212 to transmit the sheet body. Further, in order to achieve the lifting or falling effect of the conveying roller 214, the specific structure for driving it to rise or fall can refer to the several specific embodiments of driving the stopper to rise or fall, which will not be described in detail here.

[0053] Further, please refer to Figures 1 to 4 The feeding robot 300 includes a machine base 310, a robot arm 320 and a suction cup 330. The robot arm 320 is movably disposed on the machine base 310; the suction cup 330 is disposed on the robot arm 320; and the suction cup 330 is used to suck the plate body.

[0054] By movably setting the mechanical arm 320 on the machine base 310, the position of the mechanical arm 320 can be flexibly adjusted. Specifically, the mechanical arm 320 can be slidably set on the machine base 310, or the mechanical arm 320 can be hinged to the machine base 310. When the mechanical arm 320 can be slidably set on the machine base 310, the machine base 310 can be provided with a slide rail extending from the output end of the feed conveying mechanism 100 to the plate separation processing conveying mechanism 200, and the mechanical arm 320 is slidably set on the slide rail, and the mechanical arm 320 can be extended and retracted in the up and down directions, so that when the mechanical arm 320 extends downward, it can drive the suction cup 330 to extend downward, and then suck a layer of multiple plate bodies arranged side by side through the suction cup 330. Then the mechanical arm 320 can drive the suction cup 330 to retract upward, and the mechanical arm 320 slides relative to the slide rail to the top of the plate separation processing conveying mechanism 200, and drives the suction cup 330 to be lowered onto the plate separation processing conveying mechanism 200.

[0055] Further, please refer to Figures 1 to 4 The partition bar conveying mechanism 400 is arranged lower than the plate separation and processing conveying mechanism 200; the feeding robot 300 also includes a telescopic toggle assembly 340, and the telescopic toggle assembly 340 is connected to the robot arm 320; when the robot arm 320 moves from the feeding conveying mechanism 100 to the plate separation and processing conveying mechanism 200, the telescopic toggle assembly 340 extends and toggle the partition bar to the partition bar conveying mechanism 400.

[0056] By connecting the telescopic toggle assembly 340 to the robot arm 320 and using it to move the partition bar, after the robot arm 320 moves along the slide rail to the top of the feed conveying mechanism 100 and extends downward to suck the plate body through the suction cup 330, the telescopic toggle assembly 340 can extend downward; then, when the robot arm 320 drives the suction cup 330 to rise and slide along the slide rail to the plate separation processing conveying mechanism 200, the telescopic toggle assembly 340 is correspondingly arranged on the side of the partition bar, and scrapes the partition bar under the sucked plate body along the sliding direction of the robot arm 320. By setting the spacer conveying mechanism 400 lower than the plate separation processing conveying mechanism 200 and connecting it to the output end of the feed conveying mechanism 100, when the robot arm 320 drives the suction cup 330 and the plate body sucked by the suction cup 330 to move toward the plate separation processing conveying mechanism 200, the telescopic toggle assembly 340 simultaneously scrapes the spacer to the output end of the feed conveying mechanism 100, and enters the spacer conveying mechanism 400 through the output end, thereby achieving the effect of simultaneously conveying the plate body to the plate separation processing conveying mechanism 200 and conveying the spacer to the spacer conveying mechanism 400 through the feed robot 300, greatly saving time and improving production efficiency. In addition, only one set of feed robot 300 can be used to simultaneously convey the plate body and the spacer, and to separate the plate body and the spacer at the same time.

[0057] For details, please refer to Figures 1 to 4 The present invention provides an embodiment of a telescopic toggle assembly 340: the telescopic toggle assembly 340 includes a driving cylinder 341 and a scraper assembly 342; the driving cylinder 341 is connected to the mechanical arm 320; the scraper assembly 342 is connected to the driving cylinder 341, and the driving cylinder 341 drives the scraper assembly 342 to extend downward to toggle the partition bar to the partition bar conveying mechanism 400.

[0058] With such a configuration, the driving cylinder 341 can drive the scraper assembly 342 to move upward or downward. When the driving cylinder 341 drives the scraper assembly 342 to move downward, the spacer can be moved to the spacer conveying mechanism 400. When the driving cylinder 341 drives the scraper assembly 342 to move upward, it is prevented that when the mechanical arm 320 moves toward the feeding end, the scraper assembly 342 and the uppermost plate body on the feeding conveying device interfere with each other and affect the movement of the mechanical arm 320.

[0059] Of course, in other embodiments, the scraper assembly 342 may be driven to rise or fall by other driving components, for example, the driving component may include a motor, a gear and a rack; the motor is connected to the mechanical arm 320, the gear transmission is connected to the motor, the rack is meshed with the gear, and the rack extends in the up and down direction, and the bottom end of the rack is connected to the scraper assembly 342. In this way, after the motor is started, the gear rotates and drives the rack to move downward, so that the rack drives the scraper assembly 342 to move downward, so that the scraper assembly 342 can have a relative part with the partition bar in the horizontal direction, ensuring that the scraper assembly 342 can move the partition bar in the direction from the feeding end to the output end when the mechanical arm 320 moves, and finally the partition bar falls on the partition bar conveying mechanism 400.

[0060] Furthermore, if Figure 4 As shown, the scraper assembly 342 includes a scraper body 342a, a fixed block 342b and a roller 342c; the scraper body 342a is connected to the driving cylinder 341 to move the partition bar to the partition bar conveying mechanism 400; the fixed block 342b is connected to the side of the scraper body 342a away from the partition bar conveying mechanism 400; the roller 342c is rotatably connected to the fixed block 342b and partially protrudes from the bottom end of the scraper body 342a.

[0061] The scraper body 342a is connected to the driving cylinder 341, and the scraper body 342a is used to move the spacer bar, thereby achieving the effect of moving the spacer bar through the scraper assembly 342. In addition, by setting a fixed block 342b connected to the scraper body 342a, the fixed block 342b is connected to the side of the scraper body 342a away from the spacer bar conveying mechanism 400, and the roller 342c is rotatably connected to the fixed block 342b and partially protrudes from the bottom end of the scraper body 342a, then during the process of the scraper body 342a moving the spacer bar, the roller 342c can reduce the friction between the scraper assembly 342 and the plate body below the spacer bar, and prevent the sharp part of the scraper body 342a from scratching the plate body below the spacer bar.

[0062] In the technical solution of the present invention, a slope is further provided at the output end of the feed conveying mechanism 100 , one end of the slope is connected to the output end of the feed conveying mechanism 100 , and the other end is connected to the partition conveying mechanism 400 .

[0063] With such arrangement, when the partition bar conveying mechanism 400 is set lower than the output end of the feed conveying mechanism 100, after the telescopic push assembly 340 pushes the partition bar to the output end, it only needs to drive the partition bar to move a short distance in the direction away from the feed end (here refers to moving until the center of gravity of the partition bar is separated from the output end), so that the partition bar can automatically fall onto the partition bar conveying mechanism 400 along the slope. This method makes it simple and effective for the partition bar to fall into the partition bar conveying mechanism 400, and avoids the need to transport the partition bar to the partition bar conveying mechanism 400 through another robot or other conveying device.

[0064] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 Based on the solution of the discharging integration and conveying mechanism 600 provided in the technical solution of the present invention, in this embodiment, the discharging integration and conveying mechanism 600 includes a discharging integration mechanism 700 and a second lifting device 800. The sheet separating, processing and conveying mechanism 200 is connected to the discharging integration mechanism 700; the second lifting device 800 is connected to the spacer conveying device and the backing plate conveying device.

[0065] The discharging integration mechanism 700 is used to arrange multiple sheet bodies conveyed out from the sheet separating, processing and conveying mechanism 200 side by side into a single layer, and pick and place a layer of sheet bodies onto the second lifting device 800 through a discharging manipulator 900. By providing the second lifting device 800, the height of the second lifting device 800 can be adjusted, so that the height difference between the platform of the second lifting device 800 and the conveying platform of the discharging integration and conveying mechanism 600 is relatively small, ensuring that the sheet bodies conveyed by the discharging integration and conveying mechanism 600 can be smoothly conveyed to the second lifting device 800.

[0066] Specifically, after the processing device 220 processes a single sheet body and cuts it into two relatively narrow sheet bodies arranged side by side separately, in order to prevent one of the two side-by-side sheet bodies from skewing when they are conveyed simultaneously from the processing device 220, it is necessary to separate the two side-by-side sheet bodies and convey them one by one. To achieve the above effect, further, the discharging integration mechanism 700 may have a structure similar to the above-mentioned feeding separation device 210, except that in the technical solution of the present invention, the whole layer of sheet bodies are separated one by one during feeding, while the discharging integration mechanism 700 can separate two sheet bodies coming out simultaneously after processing one by one, and the separated sheet bodies are also integrated together in the discharging integration mechanism 700; therefore, the discharging integration mechanism 700 and the feeding separation device 210 adopt a similar transmission structure, except that the conveying direction of the sheets can be opposite to that of the feeding separation device 210.

[0067] Please refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 5 and Figure 6, specifically, the discharging and integrating mechanism 700 includes a first conveying mechanism 710, a second conveying mechanism 720, and a discharging stop assembly 730; the first conveying mechanism 710 has an input end 701 and an output end 702 arranged oppositely; one end of the second conveying mechanism 720 is docked with the output end 702 of the first conveying mechanism 710, and the extending direction of the second conveying mechanism 720 is the same as the conveying direction of the first conveying mechanism 710; there are at least two groups of discharging stop assemblies 730, and the at least two groups of discharging stop assemblies 730 are arranged at intervals along the conveying direction of the first conveying mechanism 710, and one discharging stop assembly 730 is arranged between the first conveying mechanism 710 and the second conveying mechanism 720; the discharging stop assembly 730 has a stop position and an avoidance position; when the discharging stop assembly 730 is in the stop position, it is used to stop the sheet material; when the discharging stop assembly 730 is in the avoidance position, it is used to avoid the sheet body. Further, the discharging and integrating mechanism 700 further includes a third conveying mechanism 740, and the third conveying mechanism 740 is docked with the end of the second conveying mechanism 720 far from the first conveying mechanism 710, and the third conveying mechanism 740 intermittently conveys the sheet body. That is, when the second conveying mechanism 720 conveys the subsequent sheet body during the conveying process, the third conveying mechanism 740 intermittently conveys the sheet body a certain distance, so that the subsequent sheet body can be conveyed to the third conveying mechanism 740, and the subsequent sheet body is re-integrated with the sheet body to achieve the integration effect of the sheet body. Among them, the discharging stop assembly 730 includes a driving device 731, a stop block 732, and a support frame 733. The stop block 732 is rotatably arranged on the support frame 733, and the driving device 731 is drivingly connected to one end of the stop block 732 to make the other end of the stop block 732 rise to the stop position or fall to the avoidance position. In addition, the first conveying mechanism 710 includes a conveyor belt assembly 711, a connecting rod 712, and a driving assembly 713; there are a plurality of conveyor belt assemblies 711, and the plurality of conveyor belt assemblies 711 are arranged side by side at intervals along the direction perpendicular to the conveying direction of the first conveying mechanism 710; the plurality of conveyor belt assemblies 711 are all drivingly connected to the connecting rod 712; the driving assembly 713 is drivingly connected to the connecting rod 712 to drive the connecting rod 712 to rotate. Further, a baffle 714 protrudes from the conveying surface of the conveyor belt assembly 711. With such a setting, on the one hand, the baffle 714 can further separate the sheet bodies on its opposite sides, and when the baffle 714 moves on the conveyor belt assembly 711 and there is a sheet body stuck between the baffle 714 and the discharging stop assembly 730, the opposite sides of the sheet body can be limited by the baffle 714 and the discharging stop assembly 730 respectively, so as to avoid the phenomenon that the sheet body moves in the opposite direction of the conveying direction when the sheet body collides with the discharging stop assembly 730 on one side. The structure of the second conveying mechanism 720 can be selected to be the same as the above-mentioned first conveying mechanism 710, and will not be elaborated in detail here.Of course, in other embodiments, the second conveying mechanism 720 may also adopt a structure different from the above-mentioned first conveying mechanism 710. For example, the second conveying mechanism 720 may adopt a conveying roller or other structure capable of conveying the plate body to achieve a conveying effect on the plate body.

[0068] Furthermore, if Figure 5 As shown, the discharging integration mechanism 700 may further include a pressing wheel mechanism 750, which is disposed above the end where the third conveying mechanism 740 and the second conveying mechanism 720 are connected, and is used to hold the plate body conveyed on the third conveying mechanism 740. This arrangement can prevent the plate body from being skewed under the conveying action of the third conveying mechanism 740.

[0069] Specifically, the pressing wheel mechanism 750 may include a pressing wheel body 751 and a driving member 753. The pressing wheel body is used to resist the plate transmitted on the third transmission mechanism 400. The pressing wheel body 751 is connected to the driving member 753, and the driving member 753 drives the pressing wheel body 751 to move up and down. The driving member 753 may be a motor, and the motor may be driven to connect to the pressing wheel body 751 through a connecting rod 752. For example, one end of the connecting rod 752 is connected to the motor, and the other end is connected to the pressing wheel body 751, and drives the pressing wheel body 751 to lift up or fall down. Of course, the driving member 753 may also be a cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder, etc. The cylinder or hydraulic cylinder directly drives the pressing wheel body 751 to move up and down, or may also be connected to the pressing wheel body 751 through a connecting rod 752 to drive the pressing wheel body 751 to move up and down.

[0070] Further, please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 The material discharging integration mechanism 700 also includes a roller conveying mechanism 760, which is arranged near the input end 701 of the first conveying mechanism 710; the conveying direction of the roller conveying mechanism 760 is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the first conveying mechanism 710, and the material discharging integration mechanism 700 can receive the plate body conveyed perpendicularly to its conveying direction.
