Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of plastic flower production, and particularly to a fully automatic plastic flower assembling machine. Background Art

[0002] Flower arranging has become a handicraft in urban people's lives. With the development of society and the improvement of people's living standards, artificial flowers have become a major demand in social life because they do not wither, have a realistic shape, and good environmental decoration effects. Traditional plastic flower production enterprises generally implement flower arranging for plastic flowers by means of manual insertion. The operation mode of manually inserting plastic flowers not only has the deficiencies of low flower arranging efficiency, poor flower arranging effect, low flower arranging accuracy, time-consuming and laborious, but also causes the problems of high labor intensity of workers and high labor costs for enterprises in plastic flower production enterprises, making it difficult to meet the requirements of large-scale, batch production and automated production of enterprises. Later, some semi-automatic plastic flower injection molding equipment appeared on the market, such as the Chinese invention patent with the publication number CN108995139A and the patent name "An automatic injection molding and separation device for plastic parts used in assembling artificial flower stipules". This equipment can only perform injection molding and separation on plastic flowers, and it cannot automatically assemble plastic flowers. Therefore, there is an urgent need in this field to develop a plastic flower assembling machine suitable for fully automatic assembly and large-scale batch production of plastic flowers.

[0048] In one embodiment, the operation process of the fully automatic plastic flower assembling machine is as follows: The flower stems are conveyed and loaded through the flower stem feeding vibrating disk 9, and the flower branches are conveyed and loaded through the flower branch feeding conveyor line 2; When the flower stems are conveyed close to the flower stem feeding manipulator 8 under the vibration of the flower stem feeding vibrating disk 9, the flower stem feeding manipulator 8 can pick up the flower stems from the flower stem feeding vibrating disk 9 and move the picked-up flower stems to the top of the branch inserting mechanism 5; The first flower branch conveyor belt 11 and the second flower branch conveyor belt 12 in the flower branch feeding and conveying mechanism 1 can automatically rotate and convey respectively under the drive of the flower branch conveying motors 105 connected thereto. There are multiple flower branch hanging nails 13 evenly distributed at a certain interval on the top of each flower branch conveyor belt in the flower branch feeding and conveying mechanism 1. When the flower branches are conveyed from the flower branch feeding conveyor line 2 into the flower branch feeding and conveying mechanism 1, the flower branch hanging nails 13 can hook the flower branches and convey them along with the flower branch conveyor belt fixedly connected thereto. When the flower branches are conveyed past the lower part of the material separating rod 19 along with the connected flower branch conveyor belt, the material separating rod 19 can move the flower stems on both sides of each flower branch conveyor belt when rotating along with the material separating shaft 18 and under the drive of the material separating motor 10, so that the flower stems can be concentrated and conveyed in the middle on the top of each flower branch conveyor belt; When the flower branches are conveyed past the material separating brush 102 along with each flower branch conveyor belt, the material separating brush 102 can brush off the redundant flower branches in the flower branch hanging nails 13, so that each flower branch hanging nail 13 can only hook one flower stem and convey it past the material separating brush 102, so as to realize automatic material separation of the flower branches; When the flower branches are conveyed close to the CCD vision detection system 4, the CCD vision detection system 4 can automatically identify whether the placement direction of the flower branches conveyed in the flower branch feeding and conveying mechanism 1 is correct; When the CCD vision detection system 4 identifies that the conveying direction of the flower branches in the flower branch feeding and conveying mechanism 1 is correct, the first clamping finger cylinder 62 in the branch inserting mechanism 5 moves to the flower branch feeding and conveying mechanism 1 to pick up the flower branches with the correct conveying direction and insert the flower branches with the correct conveying direction onto the flower stems located on the top of the flower stem socket 78. Since multiple branches need to be inserted on the top of the flower stem, when one circle of branches on the flower stem is inserted with flower branches, it is necessary to insert flower branches on another circle of the flower stem. When the flower stem is conveyed to the top of the flower stem socket 78, the flower stem socket 78 can adjust or move the position of inserting the flower branches along with the branch inserting spacing adjusting sliding seat 72 and under the drive of the branch inserting spacing adjusting motor 73. For example, when the flower branches are inserted on one circle of the branches on the flower stem, the branch inserting spacing adjusting sliding seat 72 can move on the top of the branch inserting spacing adjusting sliding component 71 through the branch inserting spacing adjusting screw rod assembly 74 and under the drive of the branch inserting spacing adjusting motor 73, so as to realize the adjustment of the position of the branch inserting spacing adjusting sliding seat 72, so that the branch inserting spacing adjusting sliding seat 72 can move a certain distance under the drive of the branch inserting spacing adjusting motor 73, so that the branch inserting mechanism 5 can insert flower branches on another circle or another layer of the flower stem.When the flower rod rotating motor 79 rotates, it can drive the flower rod socket 78 to rotate, so that the flower rod placed on the flower rod socket 78 can rotate with the rotation of the flower rod socket 78, so as to realize the insertion of flower branches around the flower rod. Also, when the flower rod oblique angle adjustment motor 701 rotates forward and backward, it can drive the flower rod rotating motor 79 to rotate obliquely by a certain angle, so that the flower rod socket 78 can rotate obliquely by a certain angle with the rotation of the flower rod rotating motor 79, so as to realize the insertion of flower branches into the flower rod from an oblique angle. When the layered branch insertion lifting motor 77 is started, the layered branch insertion lifting motor 77 can drive the layered branch insertion lifting slide 76 to perform a lifting movement on one side of the layered branch insertion lifting sliding assembly 75, so that the flower rod socket 78, the flower rod rotating motor 79 and the flower rod oblique angle adjustment motor 701 can all rise and fall with the rise and fall of the layered branch insertion lifting slide 76, so as to be suitable for inserting flower branches into flower rods of different heights. The first finger cylinder 62 can rotate by a certain angle under the drive of the branch clamping horizontal angle adjustment motor 59, so that the first finger cylinder 62 can accurately clamp the flower branches that are transmitted obliquely. When the glue insertion angle adjustment cylinder 63 is started, it can drive the first finger cylinder 62 to rotate 90 degrees, so that the flower branches clamped by the first finger cylinder 62 can be inserted into the flower rod in a vertical direction. By repeating this process, it can automatically complete the operation of inserting flower branches into the flower rod for multiple circles or multiple layers.
