Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of glass product boxing, and specifically relates to an automatic glass product boxing device and a boxing method. Background Art

[0002] The prior art automatic glass bottle boxing device can be seen in the invention patent application of "Automatic Glass Product Boxing System" with the publication number CN107856903A applied by the present applicant. The structure of this application includes a material taking and transferring mechanism, a first conveying mechanism, a second conveying mechanism, and a transfer mechanism. When in use, it includes the following steps: S1. Tray box: Manually place a paper empty box body in a packaging box frame made of stainless steel, use the packaging box frame to support the paper empty box body, and carry the packaging box frame to the box body guiding seat of the annular conveyor belt of the first conveying mechanism; S2. Supply box: Through the transmission of the first conveying mechanism, directly convey the packaging box frame and the empty box body to the glass product boxing position; S3. Loading: The material taking and transferring mechanism precisely and stably grabs and transfers the glass products to be boxed from the feeding platform into the paper empty box body; S4. Push box: The servo motor of the transfer mechanism drives the transfer manipulator to generate a translational motion through a lead screw, that is, the transfer manipulator pushes the paper box body filled with bottle bodies and its packaging box frame from the annular conveyor belt of the first conveying mechanism to the annular conveyor belt of the second conveying mechanism; S5. Store box: The annular conveyor belt of the second conveying mechanism conveys the paper box body filled with bottle bodies and its packaging box frame to the next process; S6. Take box: Manually take out the stainless steel packaging box frame and take out the paper box body from the packaging box frame.

[0003] Although the solution described in this application can realize the automatic boxing operation of glass products through six steps of "tray box - supply box - loading - push box - store box - take box", there are the following defects in actual production:

[0004] Firstly, it is time-consuming, laborious, and has a high failure rate. In the prior art, in order to avoid the low hardness of the paper packaging box body from being unable to provide good support for the glass bottles installed therein during the processes of supplying boxes, pushing boxes, and storing boxes, a stainless steel packaging box frame is placed outside the paper packaging box, and the high strength of the packaging box frame is used to support the paper empty box body, avoiding the deformation of the paper packaging box and the chaos and damage of the glass bottles inside the box.

[0005] The stainless steel packaging box frame is composed of a bottom plate and three side plates vertically fixed on the bottom plate, and its top surface and upper side are open to facilitate the placement of the paper empty box body therein. However, due to the heavy overall weight of the packaging box frame, it is not only inconvenient for workers to carry back and forth, time-consuming and laborious; moreover, when the lead screw drives the transfer manipulator to move horizontally, the operation is not smooth, and the packaging box frame is easily stuck between the first conveying mechanism and the second conveying mechanism, affecting the smooth progress of the normal boxing and transfer operation.

[0006] Second, the material taking and transferring mechanism affects the full filling of the packaging box with bottles.

[0007] In the prior art, the material taking and transferring mechanism often adsorbs the body of a qualified glass bottle by the first transferring component, and then places it with the bottle mouth facing upward in a packaging box with an open top surface. The first transferring component in the prior art includes a transferring moving component and a nozzle bottle taking component. During operation, the nozzle bottle taking component adsorbs the body of the glass bottle to be transferred on the bottle arranging line, and under the drive of the transferring moving component, places it at the bottle filling position of the packaging box. The nozzle releases the glass bottle, and the placement of a row of bottles is completed.

[0008] Although this kind of transferring method can, to a certain extent, transfer the qualified glass bottles on the bottle arranging line to the packaging box, it is not convenient to neatly fill the packaging box with bottles. This is because there are baffles on both sides of the bottle arranging line for shielding. The nozzle takes the bottle by adsorbing the body of the bottle on the bottle arranging line. When the nozzle adsorbs the body of the bottle and vertically places the bottle with the bottle mouth facing upward into the packaging box with an open top surface, the nozzle will occupy a certain space inside the packaging box, affecting the placement of the remaining several rows of bottles inside the packaging box. In actual production, to ensure that the remaining several rows inside the packaging box are filled with bottles, it is often necessary to open the side of the box to provide a accommodating space for the nozzle. After the box is filled, manual folding of the side of the box is required, which greatly reduces the box filling efficiency and is not conducive to the automatic box filling of glass bottles.

The transmission directions of the first box body transmission member and the second box body transmission member are the same.

[0041] The present invention also provides a glass product automatic boxing method realized by using the above glass product automatic boxing equipment. The technical solution is as follows: A glass product automatic boxing method realized by using the glass product automatic boxing equipment includes the following steps:

[0042] S1. Box supply: The box supply mechanism outputs empty boxes;

[0043] S2. Box picking: The box picking mechanism at the box picking position picks a single empty box from the empty box output position of the box supplying mechanism;

[0044] S3. Box supporting: The box picking mechanism unloads the picked single empty box into the box supporting and transporting mechanism at the box supporting position;

[0045] S4. Loading: The loading mechanism picks the glass products to be boxed and transfers them to the box supporting and transporting mechanism at the loading position;

[0046] S5. Box blocking: The box blocking mechanism at the initial position enables the box supporting and transporting mechanism to transfer the box filled with glass products to the box unloading position; the box blocking mechanism blocks the box, and at the same time, the box supporting and transporting mechanism moves to the box supporting position, and the box filled with glass products is transferred to the box body input position of the box storing mechanism;

[0047] S6. Box storing: After the box storing mechanism stores multiple boxes filled with glass products, the box storing mechanism outputs the boxes;

[0048] S7. Each mechanism resets and repeats the above steps.

[0049] As a limitation of the present invention, S1. Box supplying: The empty box bodies are placed horizontally at intervals up and down on the corresponding box supporting frames, and the chain drive assembly with synchronous transmission drives the box supporting frames to output the empty box bodies upward;

[0050] S2. Box picking: The box picking linear driver at the box picking position drives the box picking suction cup to suck a single empty box from the empty box output position of the box supplying mechanism;

[0051] S3. Box supporting: The box picking linear driver drives the box picking suction cup and the empty box to move upward, the box picking suction cup releases the empty box, and the empty box falls on the box supporting plate at the box supporting position; the box body left side limiting component and the box body right side limiting component limit the left and right sides of the box body;

[0052] The box supporting linear driver controls the support plate to move, the box supporting plate tilts, and the box supporting plate is at the loading position;

[0053] The limiting and moving component controls the limiting baffle to move to the position corresponding to the placement position of the first row of bottle bodies in the front side of the box body;

[0054] The box pulling and moving component controls the box pulling plate to pull the rear side of the box body;

[0055] S4. Loading: The first transfer and moving assembly controls the first suction nozzle to pick the bottles and then moves the adsorbed row of bottle bodies to the bottle receiving groove, the second transfer and moving assembly controls the second suction nozzle to move to the bottle receiving groove to adsorb the bottle mouth to pick the transfer bottle bodies, and then drives the adsorbed row of bottle bodies to move into the packaging box of the box supporting and transporting mechanism, and the second suction nozzle releases the adsorbed row of bottle bodies at the loading position in the packaging box;

[0056] The adjacent two rows of bottles in the packaging box are placed in a staggered manner, and the feeding is cycled until the box is full;

[0057] S5. Box blocking:

[0058] The box blocking linear mover controls the box blocking plate to move to the initial position, and the tray horizontal moving component drives the tray plate and the box filled with glass products to be horizontally transported to the box unloading position of the tray plate; while the tray plate is horizontally moving, the box pulling return spring and the box taking return spring drive the box pulling component and the box taking mechanism to reset respectively. The box taking mechanism is in the box taking position, and the box pulling component is away from the feeding position;

[0059] The box blocking linear mover controls the box blocking plate to move to the box blocking position, and at the same time the tray horizontal moving component drives the tray plate to return to the tray position. The box filled with glass products stays at the box input position of the first box storage platform; while the tray plate is horizontally moving, the box taking push block pushes the box taking base away from the box taking position, and the box taking return spring is stretched; the box pulling push block drives the box pulling base to move to the feeding position, and the box pulling return spring is stretched;

[0060] S6. Box storage: Each layer of boxes filled with glass products is stacked from top to bottom on the box storage rack, and the box storage linear moving component controls the first box storage platform to move down one layer;

[0061] Until the box storage rack descends to the same height as the box storage tray, the first box body transmission part and the second box body transmission part drive the boxes on the box storage rack to move onto the box storage tray, and all the boxes are output onto the box storage tray, and the boxes filled with glass products in multiple layers are taken out from the box storage tray;

[0062] S7. Each mechanism resets, and the above steps are repeated.

[0063] Due to the adoption of the above technical solution, compared with the prior art, the automatic box loading equipment for glass products of the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0064] (1) The present invention is an improvement on the existing automatic box loading equipment for glass products. Through "box supply - box taking - tray supporting - feeding - box blocking - box storage", it efficiently and qualitatively realizes the accurate and orderly filling of boxes with glass products. That is, the empty box body is output by the box supply mechanism, the empty box body is taken from the box output position by the box taking mechanism, and the box is supported and accurately positioned by the tray transfer mechanism. At the same time, the glass products to be boxed are accurately, orderly and firmly grabbed from the bottle arranging line by the loading mechanism and transferred into the empty box body, and the box filled with glass products is transferred to the box storage mechanism for outward output by the box blocking mechanism.

[0065] (2) Compared with the prior art, the present invention adopts the method of first taking the box and then supporting the box. Without using a packaging box frame with relatively high hardness to support the paper packaging box, it can conveniently realize the automatic box support of the paper packaging box, reduce the labor intensity of workers' back-and-forth handling, save time and effort; and combined with the set box blocking mechanism, it effectively ensures the stable output of the box body to the box storage mechanism, reduces the failure rate, and ensures the smooth progress of the box loading work.

[0066] (3) In the box support and transfer mechanism of the present invention, by setting the left box body limit component and the right box body limit component of the box body, the left and right movement positions of the box body can be restricted, and the positioning accuracy of the packaging box can be improved; combined with the set first row of bottle body limit components, it can prevent the first row of bottle bodies loaded into the box body from falling down due to lack of positioning, improve the stability of the first row of bottle bodies loaded into the box, and avoid affecting the subsequent transfer of the bottle bodies; combined with the set box pulling component, it ensures that the box body has a receiving space when the last row of bottle bodies is loaded into the box, enables the last row of bottle bodies to be smoothly filled into the packaging box, and ensures the precise, orderly and neat arrangement of the glass products loaded into the box.

[0067] (4) The loading mechanism of the present invention is an improvement on the bottle taking and transfer mechanism of the original glass bottle box loading equipment, that is, a bottle body transfer station is added between the bottle arranging line and the packaging box of the automatic box loading machine. The original transfer of the bottle body from the bottle arranging line to the packaging box of the automatic box loading machine by adsorbing / clamping the bottle body is improved to first transfer the qualified bottle body from the bottle arranging line to the transfer and storage bottle component by adsorbing / clamping the bottle body, and then transfer the transfer bottle body from the transfer and storage bottle component to the packaging box of the automatic box loading machine by adsorbing / clamping the bottle mouth.

[0068] By setting the transfer and storage bottle component in the present invention, the second transfer component vertically places the bottle body into the packaging box by adsorbing the bottle mouth, effectively avoiding the situation in the prior art that the suction nozzle occupies the space inside the packaging box and affects the placement of the remaining rows of bottle bodies inside the packaging box, ensuring that the bottle bodies are neatly arranged row by row inside the packaging box, improving the box loading efficiency, and facilitating the automatic box loading of glass bottles.

[0069] By setting a push plate in the transfer and storage bottle component of the present invention, the bottle body that is not adsorbed by the second transfer component and still remains on the bottle receiving groove can be pushed away from the bottle receiving groove, without affecting the first transfer component from neatly placing the bottle body in the bottle receiving groove, ensuring the smooth placement of the next row of bottle bodies in the packaging box.

[0070] The present invention is applicable to automatic box loading equipment for glass products, and is used for loading the bottle bodies on the bottle arranging line into the packaging box. Brief Description of the Drawings

[0093] Embodiment 1 An Automatic Box Loading Device for Glass Products

[0094] This embodiment is an improvement on the existing automatic box loading device for glass products. Through "box supply - box picking - tray holding - loading - box blocking - box storage", the glass products can be accurately and orderly filled into the box. That is, the empty box body is output by the box supply mechanism 6, the empty box body is picked by the box picking mechanism 8 from the box body output position, and the tray transfer mechanism 7 is used to support and accurately position the box body. At the same time, the loading mechanism accurately, orderly and stably grabs the glass products to be boxed from the bottle arranging line 4 and transfers them into the empty box body, and the box blocking mechanism 9 transfers the box filled with glass products to the box storage mechanism for external output.

[0095] As Figures 1 to 9 shown, this embodiment includes a box supply mechanism 6, a box picking mechanism 8, a tray transfer mechanism 7, a loading mechanism, a box blocking mechanism 9 and a box storage mechanism assembled on the frame.

[0096] I. Box Supply Mechanism 6

[0097] The box supply mechanism 6 is used to provide empty boxes to the box picking mechanism 8.

[0098] AsFigure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the box supply mechanism 6 includes a pair of chain drive assemblies connected by synchronous transmission. The chain drive assembly is a ring chain 61 that is rotatably transferred to the frame. The two ring chains 61 are arranged in parallel on the left and right sides and are connected by the chain transmission member. The output end of the box supply motor is connected to the power input end of the chain transmission member. A plurality of box holders 62 are fixedly installed on each ring chain 61 at intervals. The box holders 62 on the two ring chains 61 are correspondingly arranged to separate adjacent empty boxes placed horizontally up and down. The empty box where the uppermost box holder 62 of the chain drive assembly is placed is the empty box output position of the box supply mechanism 6.

[0099] 2. Box taking mechanism 8

[0100] The box taking mechanism 8 is used to take a single empty box and lift the single empty box away from the box supply mechanism 6 so that the box holding and transporting mechanism 7 can hold the empty box from below the empty box. The box taking mechanism 8 has two working positions: a box taking position and a box unloading position. The box taking position of the box taking mechanism 8 corresponds to the empty box output position of the box supply mechanism 6, and the box unloading position of the box taking mechanism 8 corresponds to the box holding position of the box holding and transporting mechanism 7.

[0101] like Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the box taking mechanism 8 includes a box taking base 81, a box taking linear driver 82, a box taking sucker 83 and a box taking return spring 84. The box taking base 81 is slidably connected to the frame through a slide rail, and a box taking linear driver 82 is fixedly mounted on the box taking base 81. A box taking mounting plate is fixedly mounted on the power output end of the box taking linear driver 82, and a plurality of box taking suckers 83 are fixedly mounted on the box taking mounting plate. The box taking suckers 83 are connected to the air source through a pipeline, and the box taking suckers 83 are located above the box supply mechanism 6. The box taking linear driver 82 drives the box taking sucker 83 to move downward to the empty box at the top layer of the box supply mechanism 6 to absorb the empty box, and the box taking mechanism 8 takes the box. The box taking linear driver 82 drives the box taking sucker 83 and the box body to move upward to the top of the box support plate 71, and the box taking mechanism 8 unloads the box, and the box taking sucker 83 unloads the box position. The box taking sucker 83 is located above the box support plate 71.

[0102] like Figure 4 As shown, the box removal reset spring 84 is fixedly installed between the box removal base 81 and the frame, and is used to drive the box removal mechanism 8 to reset. A box removal push block 85 is fixedly installed on the box support plate 71 of the box support transfer mechanism 7 at the position corresponding to the box removal base 81, so that the box removal push block 85 drives the box removal base 81 to slide by utilizing the movement of the box support plate 71. When the box support plate 71 is in the box unloading position, the box removal reset spring 84 is in a natural state, and the box removal base 81 drives the box removal suction cup 83 to be located at the box removal position, as shown in FIG. Figure 3 When the box support plate 71 is in the box support position, the box removal push block 85 is against the box removal base 81 so that the box removal mechanism 8 is away from the box removal position, and the box removal reset spring 84 is stretched, such as Figure 4 shown.

[0103] 3. Box transfer mechanism 7

[0104] The box-holding and transporting mechanism 7 is used for supporting and transporting the box body, that is, for supporting the empty box released by the box-taking mechanism 8 and transferring the box body filled with bottles to the box-storing mechanism.

[0105] like Figure 4 As shown, the box-carrying transfer mechanism 7 includes a box-carrying plate 71, a box-carrying horizontal moving assembly 72 for driving the box-carrying plate 71 to move horizontally, and a box-carrying tilting assembly for driving the box-carrying plate 71 to tilt. The box-carrying plate 71 is located below the box-taking mechanism 8 and above the box-supplying mechanism 6, and the bottom surface of the box body is placed on the box-carrying plate 71 for supporting the box body. A sliding support block 733 is slidably connected to the frame below the box-carrying plate 71, and the sliding support block 733 is hingedly connected to the box-carrying plate 71 through a hinge. The box-carrying horizontal moving assembly 72 is fixedly mounted on the frame, and its power output end is indirectly fixedly connected to the box-carrying plate 71 through the sliding support block 733, so that the sliding support block 733 can slide with the box-carrying plate 71. The box-carrying horizontal moving assembly 72 is a structure that can realize horizontal linear movement in the prior art. In this embodiment, the box-carrying horizontal moving assembly 72 is a belt transmission assembly driven by a box-carrying motor. The box-carrying tilting assembly is used to drive the box-carrying plate 71 to tilt, so as to facilitate the stable boxing of the transferred bottle body and avoid the bottle falling. The box-carrying tilting assembly is located below the box-carrying plate 71, and includes a box-carrying linear driver 731 and a support plate 732 fixedly mounted on the frame. The power output end of the box-carrying linear driver 731 is fixedly connected to the support plate 732, and the support plate 732 is arranged corresponding to the box-carrying position of the box-carrying plate 71. When the box-carrying linear driver 731 drives the support plate 732 to move upward, the support plate 732 supports the box-carrying plate 71 to tilt the box-carrying plate 71, and the sliding support block 733 provides support for the box-carrying plate 71 in a tilted state.

[0106] Under the action of the box-carrying horizontal moving assembly 72 and the box-carrying tilting assembly, the box-carrying plate 71 has three working positions: the box-carrying position, the loading position and the unloading position. The box-carrying position refers to the position where the box-carrying horizontal moving assembly 72 drives the box-carrying plate 71 to move under the empty box taken by the material-taking mechanism after the material-taking mechanism takes the material, and is used to support the empty box. The box-carrying plate 71 is in a horizontal state, such as Figure 1 The loading position refers to the case tilting assembly tilting the box support plate 71 originally in the box support position to load the box body in the tilted state, such as Figure 2 The unloading position means that the box support plate 71 originally in the box support position is horizontally moved to the top of the box storage mechanism under the drive of the box support horizontal moving assembly 72. At this time, the box body on the box support plate 71 is full of bottles, waiting for unloading. Figure 3 shown.

[0107] Preferably, in order to ensure the accuracy of the loading position, the tray transfer mechanism 7 further includes a left box body limiting component 74, a right box body limiting component 75, a first row of bottle body limiting component 76, and a box pulling component 77.

[0108] As Figure 2 shown, the left box body limiting component 74 is assembled on the frame and is arranged corresponding to the outer surface of the left side of the box body, and is used to limit the box body from moving to the left. The left box body limiting component 74 can be a convex block or a left limiting block assembled on the frame.

[0109] As Figure 5 shown, the right box body limiting component 75 is assembled on the tray board 71 and is arranged corresponding to the outer surface of the right side of the box body, and is used to limit the box body from moving to the right. Together with the left box body limiting component 74, the box body is clamped between the left box body limiting component 74 and the right box body limiting component 75. The right box body limiting component 75 is a hinge, the inner piece of the hinge is fixedly installed on the tray board 71, and the outer piece of the hinge protrudes from the tray board 71 in the natural state and is used to limit the movement of the box body.

[0110] As Figure 4 shown, the first row of bottle body limiting component 76 is arranged corresponding to the first row of bottle bodies at the front side inside the box body. It is used to limit the placement position of the first row of bottle bodies when loading into the box body to avoid the first row of bottle bodies from falling down. The first row of bottle body limiting component 76 includes a limiting moving component 763 and a limiting baffle 761. The limiting moving component 763 is fixedly installed on the frame and is used to drive the limiting baffle 761 to move, and its power output end is fixedly connected to the limiting baffle 761. The limiting moving component 763 includes a limiting lifter for driving the limiting baffle 761 to lift up and down and a limiting expander for driving the limiting baffle 761 to stretch back and forth. The limiting lifter and the limiting expander can be linear cylinders. The limiting lifter is fixedly installed on the frame, the limiting expander is fixedly installed on the power output end of the limiting lifter, and the limiting baffle 761 is fixedly installed on the power output end of the limiting expander. A plurality of spaced isolation pads 762 are fixedly installed on the limiting baffle 761, and the positions of the isolation pads 762 are arranged corresponding to the placement positions of the first row of bottle bodies, so that the isolation pads 762 are located between two adjacent bottle bodies in the first row of bottle bodies.

[0111] As Figure 2 And Figure 4As shown, the pulling box assembly 77 is provided corresponding to the rear side of the box body for pulling the rear side of the box body so that the box body is filled with bottles. The pulling box assembly 77 includes a pulling box base 771, a pulling box moving assembly 772, a pulling box plate 773 and a pulling box return spring 774. The pulling box base 771 is slidably connected to the machine frame through a slide rail and slideway. A pulling box moving assembly 772 is assembled on the pulling box base 771 for driving the pulling box plate 773 to move to the pulling box position. The pulling box moving assembly 772 is a linear mover capable of moving linearly back and forth, and can be a linear cylinder. The power output end of the pulling box moving assembly 772 is fixedly equipped with the pulling box plate 773. The pulling box return spring 774 is fixedly installed between the pulling box base 771 and the machine frame for driving the pulling box assembly 77 to reset. A pulling box push block 775 is fixedly installed on the tray box plate 71 corresponding to the pulling box base 771 to drive the pulling box base 771 to slide by the pulling box push block 775 by using the movement of the tray box plate 71. When the tray box plate 71 is in the tray box position, the pulling box push block 775 abuts against the pulling box base 771 to make the pulling box plate 773 in the pulling box position, and the pulling box return spring 774 is stretched, as Figure 4 shown; when the pulling box plate 773 is in the box unloading position, the pulling box return spring 774 is in the natural state, and the pulling box assembly 77 is in a position away from the pulling box position, as Figure 3 shown.

[0112] IV. Loading mechanism

[0113] The loading mechanism is used to transfer glass products into the box body. The bottle taking position corresponds to the bottle output position of the bottle arranging line 4, and the unloading position of the loading mechanism corresponds to the loading position of the tray box transfer mechanism 7. As Figures 7 to 9 shown, the loading mechanism includes a first transfer assembly 1, a transfer and storage bottle assembly 2 and a second transfer assembly 3 assembled on the machine frame.

[0114] (I) The first transfer assembly 1

[0115] The first transfer assembly 1 is used to transfer the qualified bottles on the bottle arranging line 4 to the transfer and storage bottle assembly 2. The first transfer assembly 1 can transfer the bottles by adsorbing / clamping the bottle body, that is, the bottle body taking position of the first transfer assembly 1 corresponds to the bottle output position of the bottle arranging line 4, and the bottle body unloading position of the first transfer assembly 1 corresponds to the bottle placing position of the transfer and storage bottle assembly 2. The bottle body refers to the position except the bottle mouth, and can be the outer side wall or the bottom of the bottle.

[0116] The first transfer component 1 can adopt a mobile transfer structure capable of transferring the bottle body to the intermediate bottle storage component 2. The first transfer component 1 includes a first transfer mobile assembly fixedly installed on the frame and a first bottle picking assembly assembled at the power output end of the first transfer mobile assembly. The first transfer mobile assembly is used to control the moving position of the bottle body and can adopt a mechanical structure in the prior art that can drive the bottle body to move. The first bottle picking assembly is used to pick the bottle by the bottle body, that is, it can clamp or adsorb the bottle body to pick the bottle, and the first bottle picking assembly can be a mechanical claw or a suction nozzle.

[0117] In this embodiment, the first transfer mobile assembly can drive the first bottle picking assembly to move horizontally and vertically. As Figure 8 shown, it includes a first horizontal movement module 12 fixedly installed on the frame and a first lifting movement module 13 assembled at the power output end of the first horizontal movement module 12. The first bottle picking assembly includes a first mounting plate 14 fixedly installed at the power output end of the first lifting movement module 13 and N first suction nozzles 15 fixedly installed in parallel on the first mounting plate 14. The first suction nozzles 15 are connected to the air source through pipelines, and the first suction nozzles 15 can adsorb a plurality of glass bottles placed in a row.

[0118] (2) Intermediate bottle storage component 2

[0119] The intermediate bottle storage component 2 is used to store the intermediate bottle body, and the bottle body placed on the intermediate bottle storage component 2 is the intermediate bottle body. As Figure 9 shown, the intermediate bottle storage component 2 includes a bottle receiving rack 21 fixedly installed on the frame. There are N bottle receiving grooves 22 for fixing the position of the bottle body on the bottle receiving rack 21. The bottle receiving grooves 22 are U-shaped and are used to hold the bottle body. A linear driver 23 is also fixedly installed on the bottle receiving rack 21, and the linear driver 23 can be a linear cylinder. A push plate 24 is fixedly installed at the power output end of the linear driver 23, and the push plate 24 is located above the bottle receiving groove 22. When the push plate 24 is in the initial state, the bottle body can be placed on the push bottle groove. When the push plate 24 moves along the axis direction of the bottle body driven by the linear driver 23, the push plate 24 can push the bottle body on the push bottle groove away from the bottle receiving groove 22 to prevent the bottle body that has not been taken away by the second transfer component 3 from remaining in the bottle receiving groove 22 and affecting the placement of the next row of bottle bodies.

[0120] (3) Second transfer component 3

[0121] The second transfer component 3 is used to clamp / adsorb the bottle mouth to transfer the intermediate bottle body on the intermediate bottle storage component 2 into the packaging box 5 of the automatic cartoning machine, that is, the bottle mouth placing position of the intermediate bottle storage component 2 corresponds to the bottle mouth picking position of the second transfer component 3, and the bottle mouth unloading position of the second transfer component 3 corresponds to the loading position of the packaging box 5.

[0122] The second transfer component 3 can adopt a structure capable of realizing the transfer and movement of the bottle body. The second transfer component 3 includes a second transfer movement assembly fixedly installed on the frame and a second bottle picking assembly assembled at the power output end of the second transfer movement assembly. The second transfer movement assembly is used to control the movement position of the bottle body and can adopt a mechanical structure in the prior art that can drive the bottle body to move. The second bottle picking assembly is used to pick the bottle through the bottle mouth, that is, it can clamp or adsorb the bottle mouth to pick the bottle, and the second bottle picking assembly can be a mechanical claw or a suction nozzle.

[0123] In this embodiment, the second transfer movement assembly can drive the second bottle picking assembly to move horizontally, longitudinally, and vertically. As Figure 8 shown, the second transfer movement assembly includes a second horizontal movement module 31 fixedly installed on the frame, a second lifting movement module 32 assembled at the power output end of the second horizontal movement module 31, a second longitudinal movement module 33 assembled at the power output end of the second lifting movement module 32, and a rotator 34 assembled at the power output end of the second longitudinal movement module 33. The second bottle picking assembly includes a second mounting plate 35 fixedly installed at the power output end of the rotator 34 and N second suction nozzles 36 fixedly installed in parallel on the second mounting plate 35. The second suction nozzles 36 are connected to the gas source through pipelines, and the second suction nozzles 36 can adsorb a plurality of glass bottles placed in a row.

[0124] The first horizontal movement module 12, the first lifting movement module 13, the second horizontal movement module 31, the second lifting movement module 32, and the second longitudinal movement module 33 can adopt a linear movement structure in the prior art, and can include a motor, a lead screw fixedly installed at the power output end of the motor, and a lead screw nut threadedly connected to the lead screw. The rotator 34 can be a rotary motor.

[0125] V. Box blocking mechanism 9

[0126] The box blocking mechanism 9 is used to input the box filled with glass products on the tray transfer mechanism 7 into the box storage mechanism. The box blocker has two working positions: the initial position and the box blocking position. The initial position of the box blocking mechanism 9 corresponds to the tray position of the tray transfer mechanism 7, see Figure 1 ; the box blocking position of the box blocking mechanism 9 corresponds to the box unloading position of the tray transfer mechanism 7 and the box input position of the box storage mechanism, see Figure 3 .

[0127] The box blocking mechanism 9 is fixedly installed in the middle of the tray position and the box unloading position of the tray transfer mechanism 7. The box blocking mechanism 9 includes a box blocking plate 91 and a box blocking linear mover 92. The box blocking linear mover 92 is fixedly installed on the frame and is used to drive the box blocking plate 91 to move linearly. The power output end of the box blocking linear mover 92 is fixedly installed with the box blocking plate 91, and the box blocking plate 91 is correspondingly assembled between the tray position of the tray transfer mechanism 7 and the box input position of the box storage mechanism.

[0128] The initial position of the box blocking mechanism 9 is: the box blocking plate 91 is located above the box supporting plate 71 and the box body, and can move the box supporting plate 71 at the box supporting position horizontally to the box unloading position of the box supporting plate 71 through the box supporting horizontal movement assembly 72, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 . The box blocking position of the box blocking mechanism 9 is: the box blocking linear mover 92 drives the box blocking plate 91 to move downward, only blocking the box body filled with bottles on the box supporting plate 71, and the box supporting plate 71 can still move horizontally driven by the box supporting horizontal movement assembly 72, as Figure 3 .

[0129] VI. Box storage mechanism

[0130] The box storage mechanism is used to receive the box body filled with glass products unloaded from the box supporting plate 71 and store the box body filled with bottles. The box storage position of the box storage mechanism is located below the box supporting plate 71. Under the box blocking effect of the box blocking mechanism 9, as Figure 3 shown, the box body can be left at the box unloading position, and the box body falls into the box storage position of the box storage mechanism. As Figure 6 shown, the box storage mechanism includes a first box storage platform 101 and a second box storage platform 102.

[0131] The first box storage platform 101 is used to receive the box body filled with bottles and drive the box body to move downward. The first box storage platform 101 includes a box storage rack 1011, a first box body transmission member 1012 and a box storage linear movement assembly 1013. The box storage linear movement assembly 1013 is assembled on the machine frame and is used to drive the first box storage platform 101 to move up and down linearly. The box storage linear movement assembly 1013 is a chain transmission member driven by a motor. The box storage rack 1011 is fixed on the chain of the chain transmission member, and the box storage rack 1011 is used to support the box body. The first box body transmission member 1012 is assembled on the box storage rack 1011, and the first box body transmission member 1012 is used to output the box body on the box storage rack 1011 to the second box storage platform 102. The first box body transmission member 1012 is a box storage belt transmission member driven by a box storage motor.

[0132] The second box storage platform 102 is used to receive the multi-layer box bodies filled with bottles stacked from top to bottom output from the first box storage platform 101. The second box storage platform 102 is arranged corresponding to the box body output position of the first box storage platform 101, and includes a box storage support plate 1021 and a second box body transmission member 1022. The box storage support plate 1021 is fixed outside the machine frame and is used to support the box body. The second box body transmission member 1022 is assembled on the box storage support plate 1021. The transmission directions of the first box body transmission member 1012 and the second box body transmission member 1022 are the same, and are used to translate the bottles on the first box storage platform 101 to the box storage support plate 1021. The second box body transmission member 1022 is a second belt transmission member driven by a second motor.

[0133] Take the box picking linear actuator 82 as a linear cylinder, the box supporting linear actuator 731 as a linear cylinder, and the box blocking linear mover 92 as a linear cylinder. Structures capable of achieving linear movement in the prior art can also be used.

[0134] For the usage method of this embodiment, refer to Embodiment 2.

[0135] Embodiment 2: An automatic box loading method for glass products

[0136] It is implemented by using the automatic box loading equipment for glass products in Embodiment 1. Under the control of the controller of the glass product box loading system, it includes the following steps:

[0137] S1. Box supply: The box supply mechanism 6 outputs empty boxes, as Figure 3 shown.

[0138] S2. Box picking: The box picking mechanism 8 at the box picking position picks a single empty box from the empty box output position of the box supply mechanism 6.

[0139] S3. Box supporting: The box picking mechanism 8 unloads the single empty box it picks into the box supporting and transporting mechanism 7 at the box supporting position, as Figure 1 shown.

[0140] S4. Loading: The loading mechanism picks the glass products to be boxed and transports them to the box supporting and transporting mechanism 7 at the loading position, as Figure 7 shown.

[0141] S5. Box blocking: The box blocking mechanism 9 at the initial position enables the box supporting and transporting mechanism 7 to transport the box filled with glass products to the box unloading position; as Figure 3 shown, the box blocking mechanism 9 blocks the box, and at the same time, the box supporting and transporting mechanism 7 moves to the box supporting position, and the box filled with glass products is transported to the box input position of the box storage mechanism;

[0142] S6. Box storage: After the box storage mechanism stores multiple boxes filled with glass products, the box storage mechanism outputs the boxes.

[0143] S7. Each mechanism resets and repeats the above steps.

[0144] In this embodiment, the box supporting position and the loading position of the box supporting and transporting mechanism 7 can be the same position, that is, the box supporting inclined component does not drive the box supporting plate 71 to incline, and the box supporting plate 71 is always in a horizontal state to support the box. The box supporting position and the loading position of the box supporting and transporting mechanism 7 can be two working positions. The box supporting position is that the box supporting plate 71 supports the box in a horizontal state, and the loading position is that the box supporting inclined component drives the box supporting plate 71 to incline for loading.

[0145] Embodiment 3: An automatic box loading method for glass products

[0146] This embodiment is a further refinement of the embodiment 2. Under the control of the glass product boxing system controller, the following steps are included:

[0147] S1. Supply box: The empty box is placed horizontally from top to bottom on the corresponding box holder 62, and the chain drive assembly of the synchronous transmission drives the box holder 62 to output the empty box upward, such as Figure 3 shown.

[0148] S2. Box removal: The box removal linear driver 82 at the box removal position drives the box removal suction cup 83 to move downward, and the box removal suction cup 83 absorbs a single empty box from the empty box output position of the box supply mechanism 6.

[0149] S31. Box holder: The linear driver 82 drives the box holder suction cup 83 and the empty box to move upward, and the empty box is suspended above the box holder plate 71. The box holder suction cup 83 releases the empty box, and the empty box falls on the box holder plate 71 in the box holder position; and the box body is located between the left limit block and the outer hinge piece to limit the left and right sides of the box body, such as Figure 1 shown.

[0150] S32. The tray plate 71 is tilted: the tray linear drive 731 controls the support plate 732 to move upward, the support plate 732 supports one side of the tray plate 71 so that the tray plate 71 is tilted relative to the sliding support block 733, and the support plate 732 positions the tray plate 71 in a tilted state at the loading position, such as Figure 2 shown.

[0151] S33. Loading limit: The limit moving assembly 763 controls the limit baffle 761 to move to the corresponding front side of the first row of bottles in the box body, ensuring that the isolation pad 762 is placed between the adjacent two bottles when the first row of bottles is placed. Figure 4 shown.

[0152] S34. Pull the box: The pull box moving assembly 772 controls the pull box plate 773 to pull the rear side of the box body to ensure that the last row of bottles can be transferred into the box body, such as Figure 4 shown.

[0153] S4. Loading: The first transfer moving assembly controls the first suction nozzle 15 to take the bottle and then move the sucked row of bottles to the bottle receiving slot 22. The second transfer moving assembly controls the second suction nozzle 36 to move to the bottle receiving slot 22 to suck the bottle mouth to take the transfer bottle, and then drive the sucked row of bottles to move to the packaging box 5 of the box support transfer mechanism 7. The second suction nozzle 36 releases the sucked row of bottles to the loading position in the packaging box 5. Figure 7 As shown, specifically:

[0154] S41. The first transfer component 1 takes the bottle

[0155] The first transfer moving assembly of the first transfer assembly 1 drives the first suction nozzle 15 to move to a position corresponding to the bottle outlet position of the qualified bottles on the bottle arranging line 4. The first suction nozzle 15 adsorbs the body of the qualified bottle at the bottle outlet position, and the bottle is taken through the bottle body to complete.

[0156] S42. The first transfer assembly 1 unloads the bottles

[0157] The first transfer moving assembly of the first transfer assembly 1 drives a row of bottles adsorbed by the first suction nozzle 15 to move to a position corresponding to the bottle placing position (i.e., the bottle receiving groove 22) of the intermediate bottle storage assembly 2. The first suction nozzle 15 releases the row of bottles adsorbed by it into the bottle receiving groove 22, and the bottle is unloaded through the bottle body to complete.

[0158] S43. The second transfer assembly 3 takes the bottles

[0159] The second transfer moving assembly of the second transfer assembly 3 drives the second suction nozzle 36 to move to a position corresponding to the bottle mouth position of the bottles on the intermediate bottle storage assembly 2 (i.e., the bottle mouth position of the bottles on the bottle receiving groove 22). The second suction nozzle 36 adsorbs the bottle mouths of the bottles on the bottle receiving groove 22, and the bottle is taken through the bottle mouth to complete.

[0160] After the second transfer assembly 3 takes the bottles, the linear actuator 23 drives the push plate 24 to move linearly to push the bottles on the bottle receiving groove 22 that are not sucked by the second suction nozzle 36 away from the bottle receiving groove 22, so that there are no bottles left on the bottle receiving groove 22.

[0161] S44. The second transfer assembly 3 unloads the bottles

[0162] The second transfer moving assembly of the second transfer assembly 3 drives a row of bottles adsorbed by the second suction nozzle 36 to move to a position corresponding to the box loading position of the packaging box 5 of the automatic box loading machine. The second suction nozzle 36 releases the row of bottles adsorbed by it into the packaging box 5, and the bottle is unloaded through the bottle mouth to complete.

[0163] The adjacent two rows of bottles in the packaging box 5 are placed in a staggered manner. S41 to S44 are looped until the box is full.

[0164] S5. Block the box: The box blocking linear mover 92 controls the box blocking plate 91 to move upward to the initial position (as Figure 1 shown). The tray horizontal moving assembly 72 drives the tray plate 71 and the box filled with glass products to be horizontally transported to the box unloading position of the tray plate 71. While the tray plate 71 moves horizontally, the box taking push block 85 on the tray plate 71 disengages from the clamping and top placement of the box taking base 81, and the box pulling push block 775 disengages from the clamping and top placement of the box pulling base 771. The box pulling return spring 774 and the box taking return spring 84 drive the box pulling assembly 77 and the box taking mechanism 8 to return respectively. The box taking mechanism 8 is in the box taking position, and the box pulling assembly 77 is away from the loading position, as Figure 3 shown.

[0165] After the tray board 71 is in the box unloading position, the box blocking linear mover 92 controls the box blocking board 91 to move downward to the box blocking position. As Figure 3 shown, the box blocking board 91 can block the box body on the tray board 71 from moving horizontally with the tray board 71. The tray horizontal movement assembly 72 drives the tray board 71 to return to the tray position, and the box body filled with glass products remains at the box input position of the first box storage platform 101. While the tray board 71 is moving horizontally, the box taking push block 85 pushes the box taking base 81 away from the box taking position, and the box taking return spring 84 is stretched; the box pulling push block 775 pushes the box pulling base 771 to move to the loading position, and the box pulling return spring 774 is stretched. When the tray board 71 moves to the tray position, as Figure 1 shown, the box blocking linear mover 92 can control the box blocking board 91 to reset to the initial position.

[0166] S6. Box storage: On the box storage rack 1011, one layer of boxes filled with glass products is stacked from top to bottom, and the box storage linear movement assembly 1013 controls the first box storage platform 101 to move downward by one layer.

[0167] Until the box storage rack 1011 descends to the same height as the box storage tray 1021, as Figure 7 shown, the first box body transmission part 1012 and the second box body transmission part 1022 drive the box body on the box storage rack 1011 to move onto the box storage tray 1021, and all the box bodies are output onto the box storage tray 1021, and the boxes filled with glass products in multiple layers are taken out from the box storage tray 1021.

[0168] S7. Each mechanism resets, and the above steps are repeated.
