Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of clothing production, and particularly to an automatic packing method and system for home textile products. Background Art

[0002] With the progress of technology and the Internet, online shopping has gradually become the main shopping channel for people. The orders that clothing manufacturers need to process are increasing day by day. Generally, to meet customer requirements, control production costs, and improve production efficiency, the inspection and shipping processes of home textile products will try to produce and ship according to order requirements during the production process. When dealing with shipping, home textile products of the same style may be shipped according to different shipping destination information. To meet the order requirements of customers, it is necessary to accurately allocate and pack the products according to the quantity and weight requirements corresponding to different shipping destination information.

[0003] The shipping process of home textile products is currently completely manual: after the operator completes single-piece scanning and bagging, it is necessary to weigh each package, and judge whether there is a wrong hangtag resulting in mixed styles or incorrect product quantity by the weight range of weighing; then count the quantity and pack it into a box; then manually weigh the whole box and enter the information into the system, and print the box label; after completing the packing and weighing of the whole order, manually transfer the products to the needle inspection area, pour out the whole box of goods, and perform needle inspection on each packaged product in each box. After passing the needle inspection, put the single package back into the original carton, and at the same time, it is necessary to count again. In the above operation process, manual operations such as weighing, counting, transfer transportation, and repeated picking and placing are required frequently. There are redundant and repeated actions in the process. The working intensity of the operator is high, there is a great waste in actions and processes, and multiple turnovers occupy a large space. Summary of the Invention

[0004] Based on this, it is necessary to provide an automatic packing method and system for home textile products, aiming to solve the problems of complex shipping and packing processes and high labor consumption existing in the prior art.

Detailed embodiments

[0050] To make the above objects, features, and advantages of the present invention more obvious and understandable, the following will make a detailed description of the specific embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to fully understand the present invention. However, the present invention can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein. Those skilled in the art can make similar improvements without departing from the connotation of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited by the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0051] The following will describe the preferred embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0052] As Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, an automatic packing method for a home textile product shown in an embodiment of the present application includes the following steps:

[0053] S10: Scan the product label information and bag it to obtain a single product.

[0054] It should be noted that the label information of a single product includes, but is not limited to, information such as the item number, theoretical weight, and theoretical number of items to be bagged of the current product. The theoretical weight should be the designed weight of the product and the allowable error range. The theoretical number of items to be bagged can be set according to the actual product type. A single product refers to the product after being bagged, and the number of products included in each single product is at least one. For example, if the product is a pillowcase, it is usually set to two per bag, and the two pillowcases bagged together are called a single product.

[0055] S20: Convey and detect multiple single products, and determine the single products whose detection results match the label information as qualified single products.

[0056] Specifically, in S20, detection can be performed during the conveyance of the single product, or the single product can be detected first and then conveyed, or the single product can be conveyed first and then detected. In this embodiment, considering the time cost, detection is performed during the conveyance of the single product.

[0057] During the confirmation process of qualified single products, the detection results need to be compared and confirmed with the label information. The detection results can include weight, color difference, size, etc. When the detection results of the single product match the label information, the single product is determined as a qualified single product; when the detection results of the single product do not match the label information, the single product is determined as an unqualified single product.

[0058] In one embodiment, S20: Convey and detect the single product to obtain a qualified single product, including:

[0059] S21: Weigh the single product during conveyance to obtain weight information, compare the weight information with the label information. If the weight information conforms to the label information, it is marked as a single product with qualified weighing; otherwise, the conveyance of the single product is stopped and the label information of the single product is removed.

[0060] It should be noted that when weighing the single product, the obtained weight information is the weight of the product and the weight of the bag used for bagging. When setting the label information, considering the production error of the product and the weight of the bag, a certain error range is set for the theoretical weight in the label information, and the weight of the bag is within the error range of the theoretical weight.

[0061] Specifically, during the conveying process, the single item is weighed and detected, and the weighing result is compared with the theoretical weight. If the weighing result exceeds the error range of the theoretical weight, it is determined as a non-conforming product, and the non-conforming product is taken away manually or mechanically. The system deletes the label information of the non-conforming product to avoid interfering with subsequent processes. If the weighing result is within the error range of the theoretical weight, it is determined as a single item with qualified weighing. The system enters the actual weighing result of the single item with qualified weighing and conveys the single item with qualified weighing to the next process.

[0062] It should be noted that stopping the conveying of the single item can be to take away the non-conforming product manually or mechanically after pausing the conveying, or to locate the non-conforming product during the conveying process and then take away the non-conforming product manually or mechanically.

[0063] S22: During the conveying process, the single item with qualified weighing is subjected to metal detection. If it passes the metal detection, it is marked as a qualified single item; otherwise, the conveying of the single item with qualified weighing is stopped and the label information of the single item with qualified weighing is removed.

[0064] Specifically, the single item with qualified weighing is subjected to metal detection during the conveying process. If metal is detected, it is determined as a non-conforming product, an alarm signal will be sent, the conveying will be paused, and the non-conforming product is taken away manually or mechanically. The system deletes the label information and weighing result of the non-conforming product. If no metal is detected, it is determined as a qualified single item, and the qualified single item is conveyed to the next process.

[0065] It should be noted that during the packing process of home textile products, the main function of metal detection is to confirm whether the inspected products contain needles, prevent the needles missed in the production process from being shipped together with the products, and thus threaten the safety of customers using this product.

[0066] In this embodiment, a metal detector is used for metal detection. Similarly, in the actual implementation process, other detection devices can also be used for detection, such as X-ray detection.

[0067] In this embodiment, after the metal detector detects a metal signal, the metal detector emits an alarm signal, and the conveyor belt reverses to make the detected product return to the position before entering the metal detector, and then the non-conforming product is taken away manually or mechanically. It should be noted that the setting of the conveyor belt can be adjusted according to specific production requirements. For example, after detecting metal, the conveyor belt conveys the detected product to the position where the product exits the metal detection device, and then pauses the conveying, and the non-conforming product is taken away manually or mechanically.

[0068] It should be noted that although the detection steps of first weighing detection and then metal detection are adopted in this embodiment, in actual application, the detection steps of first metal detection and then weighing can also be adopted, and their detection principles are the same as those of the detection steps of first weighing detection and then metal detection.

[0069] S30: Count the qualified single items, pack a set number of single items into boxes to obtain full boxes of products, and generate information about the full boxes of products.

[0070] It should be noted that the set number refers to the number set according to the number of single items required by the order. The set number can be used as the standard for counting qualified products. That is to say, the counted number of qualified products needs to be compared with the set number. Only when the counted number reaches the set number can the next process be carried out.

[0071] It should be noted that the full box of products is obtained by packing the counted qualified single items into boxes.

[0072] Furthermore, S30 includes:

[0073] S31: Record the number of qualified single items to obtain the counted number, and compare the counted number with the set number.

[0074] The counting device 150 records the number of qualified single items and compares it with the set number. When the counted number does not reach the set number, the conveying device 130 continues to transport until the counted number reaches the set number.

[0075] S32: When the counted number reaches the set number, pack the counted qualified single items into boxes to obtain full boxes of products.

[0076] When the counted number reaches the set number, the conveying device 130 pauses the conveyance, and packs the counted qualified single items into boxes uniformly.

[0077] S33: Integrate the label information and inspection information of the scanned qualified single items to generate information about the full boxes of products, and print full box labels.

[0078] After the packing is completed, the system automatically generates information about the full boxes of products, including the number of single items in the full box, the total amount of the full box, the models of each single item, etc., and prints the above information on full box labels. The label can be a one-dimensional code label, a two-dimensional code label, or the information can be listed in text.

[0079] It should be noted that the information about the full boxes of products is obtained by integrating the label information of the scanned qualified single items and the inspection information of the qualified single items. It can be understood that the information about the full boxes of products should not only include the label information of the scanned qualified single items and the inspection information of the qualified single items, but also include information such as the total number and total weight of the qualified single items.

[0080] After the packing is completed, the count returns to zero. After the conveying device 130 continues to transport, the counting device 150 starts counting again and compares it with the set number. That is to say, the above operation process is carried out in a cycle to achieve continuous packing.

[0081] Through the above steps, first scan the label information of a single product, then detect and eliminate unqualified single products, then count and pack the qualified single products, and generate the information of a full box of products. Compared with the existing technology, in which the single products in the box are detected one by one after packing, and then the qualified single products are repacked after the detection is completed, the packing process is improved, the redundant and repeated steps in the packing process are omitted, the operation process is simplified, and the time cost and labor cost of the packing process are saved.

[0082] As Figures 3 to 5 shown, an automatic packing system for a home textile product shown in an embodiment of the present application includes a scanning device 120, a conveying device 130, a detecting device 140, a counting device 150, a packing device 160 and a control device 110; the scanning device 120 is used to scan the product label information and transmit the label information to the control device 110; the conveying device 130 is placed between the scanning device 120 and the packing device 160 and is used to convey single products; the detecting device 140 is used to detect single products to obtain detection results and transmit the detection results to the control device 110; the packing device 160 is connected to the conveying device 130 and is used to receive the single products conveyed by the conveying device 160 for packing; the counting device 150 is used to count the single products to obtain a counting quantity and transmit the counting quantity to the control device 110; the control device 110 controls the conveying device 130 to convey or pause according to the detection results of the detecting device 140, and controls the packing device to pack according to the counting results of the counting device 150.

[0083] Through the cooperation of the conveying device 130 and the detecting device 140 in the above system, the single products are automatically detected, and then with the cooperation of the control device 110, the automatic selection of qualified single products and unqualified single products is realized; the cooperation of the counting device 150, the packing device 160 and the control device 110 can realize the packing of a certain number of single products, and the scanning device 120, the counting device 150 and the control device 110 can integrate the label information of a single product, and through counting operations, obtain the information of a full box of products and generate a full box label, which can realize the automatic packing of home textile products. Compared with the manual packing process in the existing technology, the automation degree is higher, the possibility of human error is reduced, the working intensity of the operator is reduced, and the time cost and labor cost of the packing process are saved.

[0084] The automatic packing system for home textile products in the above embodiments is formed by integrating more than 120 scanning devices. Each device can adopt the existing hardware systems in the prior art. In addition, the necessary software for enabling the above devices to operate can be implemented using existing software programs. For example, the control device 110 controls the conveying device 130 to convey or pause according to the detection results of the detection device 140, and it can be implemented based on existing comparison algorithms. In addition, it can be understood that some functions can also be implemented in the form of integrated circuits.

[0085] Please continue to refer to Figures 3 to 5 , further, the detection device 140 includes: a weighing device 141 for weighing the weight of a single item and transmitting the weighing result to the control device 110.

[0086] In this embodiment, the weighing device 141 is selected as an electronic scale, and the actual weighing result is transmitted to the control device 110 during the conveying process of the single item.

[0087] A metal detection device 142 for detecting whether there is metal in the single item and transmitting the detection result to the control device 110. In this embodiment, the metal detection device 142 adopts a metal detector. The metal detection result includes a metal signal or no metal signal, and the metal detection device 142 transmits the detection result to the control device 110. Obviously, the metal detection device 142 is used to detect whether there is metal such as needles in the single item.

[0088] Further, the counting device 150 includes: a counter 151 for counting the single items to obtain a counting result. The counter 151 counts the single items passing through the scanning range of the counter 151 in the conveying device 130 and automatically generates a counting result.

[0089] It should be noted that the counter 151 mainly counts the number of pulses in the digital system to achieve the functions of measurement, counting and control. The counter 151 can adjust the counting result according to the signal or instruction of the control device 110, such as clearing the counting result.

[0090] The counting device 150 further includes: a quantity output module 152 communicatively connected to the counter 151 and the control device 110 respectively. The quantity output module 152 is used to output the counting result of the counter 151 to the control device 110. The data output module uploads the real-time counting result generated by the counter 151 to the control device 110. The quantity output module 152 can adopt any module with information sending ability in the prior art, such as a wifi module. The control device 110 processes the above information after receiving it.

[0091] Please continue to refer to Figure 4, Further, the packing device 160 includes a packing mechanism 162 for packing single items. The packing mechanism 162 is provided with a feedback module 1621. After the packing mechanism 162 completes packing, the feedback module 1621 is used to transmit a packing completion signal to the control device 110.

[0092] Specifically, after the packing mechanism 162 completes packing, the feedback module 1621 conveys the packing completion signal to the receiving module 111 of the control device 110. The output module 113 of the control device 110 clears the counting result of the counter 151 according to the packing completion signal.

[0093] Further, the control device 110 includes: a receiving module 111 which is used to receive the detection results fed back by the detection device 140, and / or, the receiving module 111 is used to receive the counting results input by the counting device 150, and / or, the receiving module 111 is used to receive the packing completion signal fed back by the packing device 160. A controller 112 which determines whether the product is a qualified product or a non - qualified product by comparing the detection results received by the receiving module 111 with the label information, and / or, the controller 112 is used to compare the counting result with the set quantity to determine whether the quantity is sufficient or insufficient. The specific type of the receiving module 111 is not limited. For example, it can be a wifi or bluetooth module, or an I / O interface.

[0094] Specifically, the receiving module 111 receives the actual weighing result transmitted by the weighing device 141. The controller 112 analyzes the weighing result: compares the weighing result with the theoretical weight in the label information entered by the scanning device 120. When the weighing result is within the error range of the theoretical weight, it is determined that the single item is a qualified product. When the weighing result exceeds the error range of the theoretical weight, it is determined that the single item is a non - qualified product.

[0095] At the same time, the receiving module 111 can also receive the metal detection test result transmitted by the metal detection device 142. The controller 112 analyzes the test result: when the test result is a metal signal, it is determined that the single item is a non - qualified product. When the test result is a non - metal signal, it is determined that the single item is a qualified product.

[0096] At the same time, the receiving module 111 can also receive the counting result of the counting device 150 and feedback the counting result to the controller 112. The controller 112 compares the counting result with the set quantity to determine whether the quantity is sufficient or insufficient.

[0097] It can be understood that the controller 112 is a master command device that controls the start, speed regulation, braking, and reverse of the motor by changing the wiring of the main circuit or control circuit and changing the resistance value in the circuit in a predetermined order. The controller can coordinate and command the entire system. The controller 112 can be a DSP chip (Digital Signal Processor), a PLC controller (Digital Circuit Controller), an embedded system, etc. In this embodiment, the controller 112 adopts a PLC controller.

[0098] In this embodiment, the controller 112 of the control device 110 contains order demand information, and the order demand information contains the quantity of single items required for the order, and this required quantity of single items is the set quantity. The controller compares the counting result uploaded by the counting device 150 with the set quantity. When the counting result is less than the set quantity, it is determined that the quantity is insufficient. When the counting result is equal to the set quantity, it is determined that the quantity is sufficient. The controller 112 transmits this determination result (quantity insufficient or quantity sufficient) to the output module 113.

[0099] The control device 110 further includes: an output module 113. The output module 113 is used to output a qualified signal or an unqualified signal according to the determination result of the controller 112, and / or output a blocking signal or a release signal according to the determination result of the controller 112, and / or control the counting device 150 to clear the count according to the packing completion signal received by the receiving module 111. The type of the output module 113 is not limited as long as it can output the above signals, and the form of the output signal is not limited.

[0100] Specifically, if the controller 112 determines that the single item is a qualified product, the output module 113 outputs a qualified signal. If the controller 112 determines that the single item is an unqualified product, the output module 113 outputs an unqualified signal.

[0101] In addition, if the determination result of the controller 112 is that the quantity is sufficient, the controller 112 outputs a blocking instruction. If the determination result is that the quantity is insufficient, the controller 112 outputs a release instruction.

[0102] In addition, the output module 113 can also control the counter 151 to clear the counting result according to the packing completion signal of the packing device 160.

[0103] Please refer to Figures 3 to 5 , further, the packing device 160 further includes a blocking device 161. The blocking device 161 is located between the conveying device 130 and the packing mechanism 162. The blocking device 161 can block the qualified single items conveyed by the conveying device 130, so that the qualified single items are temporarily stopped from entering the packing mechanism 162.

[0104] The blocking device 161 is communicatively connected to the control device 110. The blocking device 161 blocks according to the blocking signal sent by the control device 110, or allows passage according to the release signal sent by the control device. Specifically, as Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, when the blocking device 161 receives the blocking signal, the blocking device 161 is located between the conveying device 130 and the packing mechanism 162, blocking the qualified single items from entering the packing mechanism 162; when receiving the release signal, the blocking device 161 moves, enabling normal transportation between the conveying device 130 and the packing mechanism 162, and enabling the qualified single items to be normally conveyed to the packing mechanism 162.

[0105] As Figure 5 shown, in this embodiment, the blocking device 161 is set as a baffle, which can move up or down relative to the conveying device 130: when the baffle rises, the baffle blocks the qualified single items conveyed by the conveying device 130, preventing the qualified single items from being conveyed to the packing mechanism 162; when the baffle descends, the baffle does not prevent the conveying device 130 from conveying the qualified single items it conveys to the packing mechanism 162. Similarly, in practical applications, the baffle can be set to move back and forth relative to the conveying device 130, but the effect is the same as when moving up and down.

[0106] Furthermore, the conveying device 130 includes: a conveying line 132; a driver 133, connected to the conveying line 132, for controlling the operation or stop of the conveying line 132; a signal receiving module 131, communicatively connected to the driver 133 and the control device 110 respectively. The signal receiving module is used to receive the qualified signal or unqualified signal output by the output module 113 and output it to the driver 133, so that the driver 133 controls the operation of the conveying line 132 according to the qualified signal, or controls the conveying line 132 to pause according to the unqualified signal.

[0107] It can be understood that the conveying line 132 includes a conveyor belt, a conveyor chain, etc., and the driver 133 can be an electric motor, a heat engine, etc. In this embodiment, the conveying line 132 is a conveyor belt, the driver 133 is an electric motor, and the signal receiving module 131 is an inverter.

[0108] Specifically, when the signal receiving module 131 of the conveying device 130 receives the qualified signal, the conveying line 132 conveys normally. When the signal receiving module 131 receives the unqualified signal, the conveying line 132 pauses, and can only continue to convey after the unqualified products are removed from the conveying line 132 manually or by mechanical equipment.

[0109] Furthermore, it further includes a driving device, which is used to drive the packing device 160.

[0110] The driving device is used to drive the blocking device 161 of the box packing device 160 to block or release, and drive the box packing mechanism 162 to complete the box packing. In this embodiment, the driving device adopts a motor.

[0111] Furthermore, the control device 110 has a built-in ERP system.

[0112] It should be noted that an ERP system (Enterprise Resource Planning) is a management platform built on information technology that uses systematic management thinking to facilitate corporate decision-making and provide employees with the means to operate. Through software, an enterprise's personnel, finance, materials, production, supply and marketing, as well as the corresponding logistics, information flow, capital flow, management flow, and value-added flow are tightly integrated to achieve resource optimization and sharing.

[0113] In this embodiment, the ERP system contains order information, including the product number, required quantity, and required delivery location, where the required quantity is consistent with the set quantity. The ERP system also includes label information uploaded by scanning device 120, including the theoretical weight and theoretical bagging number of the scanned product. The ERP system also includes inspection results uploaded by inspection device 140, namely, the actual weighing weight and metal detection results.

[0114] The order information in the ERP system is matched with the label information or test results of the individual items to automatically obtain the whole box information of the order. The whole box information includes the number of individual items in the whole box, the weight of the individual items, the total weight of the whole box, and the delivery location required by the order. The whole box information is printed as a label for manual inspection and logistics transportation.

[0115] Furthermore, a communication card is included, and the control device 110 is connected to the scanning device 120, the conveying device 130, the detection device 140, the counting device 150 and the boxing device 160 via the communication card.

[0116] The communication card is used to control the communication between the control device 110 and other devices. Specifically, the receiving module 111 of the control device 110 receives the detection results of the weighing device 141 and the metal detection device 142 through the communication card. The quantity output module 152 of the counting device 150 transmits the counting result to the receiving module 111 of the control device 110 through the communication card, and the feedback module 1621 of the packing mechanism 162 also transmits the packing completion signal to the receiving module 111 through the communication card. Similarly, the signal output by the output module 113 is transmitted to the signal receiving module 131 of the conveying device 130 through the communication card. The output module 113 controls the counter 151 through the communication card to complete the counting reset. The output module 113 also controls the blocking device 161 to block or release through the communication card.
