The embodiments described below by referring to the drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention and should not be construed as a limitation to the present invention.

[0044] The technical solution provides an intelligent bundling system, comprising a pallet loading mechanism 1, a transfer mechanism 2, a flipping mechanism 3, a bundling mechanism 4, a tile loading mechanism 5 and a tile loading mechanical arm 7; the pallet loading mechanism 1, the transfer mechanism 2 and the flipping mechanism 3 are sequentially connected, the transfer mechanism 2 is used to transport the pallet 8 from the pallet loading mechanism 1 to the flipping mechanism 3; the flipping mechanism 3 and the tile loading mechanism 5 are located within the moving range of the tile loading mechanical arm 7, the tile loading mechanical arm 7 is used to transfer the tiles 9 from the tile loading mechanism 5 to the flipping mechanism 3; the flipping mechanism 3 is installed inside the working end of the bundling mechanism 4, and the bundling mechanism 4 is used to bundle the tiles 9 located at the flipping mechanism 3;

[0045] The pallet loading mechanism 1 includes a storage rack 11, a scooping device 12, a top support seat 13 and a tray discharging device 14; a storage cavity 111 for storing the pallet 8 is reserved in the middle of the storage rack 11; the scooping device 12 is installed on both sides of the lower part of the storage rack 11, and the scooping device 12 can approach and move away from the storage cavity 111. When the scooping device 12 approaches the storage cavity 111, the scooping device 12 is used to support the pallet 8; the tray discharging device 14 is installed in the storage cavity 11 1, and the unloading end of the discharging device 14 protrudes from the outside of the storage tray frame 11, the discharging device 14 is used to transport the pallet 8 from the storage tray cavity 111 to the outside of the storage tray frame 11, and the conveying direction of the discharging device 14 is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the transfer mechanism 2; the top supporting seat 13 is installed in the storage tray cavity 111, and the top supporting seat 13 passes through the discharging device 14, and the top of the top supporting seat 13 can move along the extension direction of the storage tray frame 11.

[0046] In order to realize the stacking, bundling and automatic transportation of tiles, this technical solution proposes an intelligent bundling system, such as Figure 1-8As shown in the figure, it includes a pallet loading mechanism 1, a transfer mechanism 2, a pallet turning mechanism 3, a bundling mechanism 4, a ceramic tile loading mechanism 5, and a ceramic tile loading robotic arm 7. Among them, the working process of the intelligent bundling system is generally divided into three steps: pallet loading, ceramic tile loading, and bundling and unloading. In the pallet loading step, first use the pallet loading mechanism 1 to load the pallet 8, and then use the transfer mechanism 2 to transport the pallet 8 from the pallet loading mechanism 1 to the pallet turning mechanism 3 to complete the loading of the pallet 8. In the ceramic tile loading step, first use the ceramic tile loading mechanism 5 to load the ceramic tile 9, and then use the ceramic tile loading robotic arm 7 to transfer the ceramic tile 9 from the ceramic tile loading mechanism 5 to the pallet turning mechanism 3, and make the ceramic tile loading robotic arm 7 repeat the above transfer movement to complete the stacking of the ceramic tile 9 in the pallet turning mechanism 3. In the bundling and unloading step, use the bundling mechanism 4 to bundle the ceramic tile 9 located in the pallet turning mechanism 3, and finally use the transfer mechanism 2 to unload the bundled product, thus completing the entire working process of the intelligent bundling system. An intelligent bundling system proposed in this solution independently loads the ceramic tiles and the pallets used to assist the transportation of the ceramic tiles, can efficiently realize the stacking, bundling, and automatic transportation of the ceramic tiles, has a compact structure, is easy to operate, has a high degree of intelligence, reduces the proportion of human participation in the bundling process, which is conducive to liberating the labor force and effectively improving the stacking and transfer efficiency of the ceramic tile packaging.

[0047] It should be noted that the ceramic tile loading mechanism 5 and the pallet discharging device 14 in this solution can be conventional conveyor lines in the ceramic tile packaging field such as conveyor belts, conveyor chains, or conveyor rollers for realizing the transportation of corresponding materials. The specific structures of the ceramic tile loading mechanism 5 and the pallet discharging device 14 will not be described here. In addition, the ceramic tile loading robotic arm 7 in this solution is a multi-degree-of-freedom robotic arm with the function of grasping the ceramic tile 9. It is composed of a multi-degree-of-freedom joint assembly and a clamping assembly with a grasping function such as a fixture or a suction cup in the field of robotic arms. The specific structure of the ceramic tile loading robotic arm 7 will not be described here. The top support seat 13 in this solution is a conventional lifting seat in the ceramic tile packaging field, and its top can move up and down to realize the lifting of the materials it carries. The specific structure of the top support seat 13 will not be described here.

[0048] Furthermore, the pallet loading mechanism 1 in this solution includes a pallet storage rack 11, a pallet holding device 12, a top support seat 13, and a pallet discharging device 14. A pallet storage cavity 111 for storing the pallet 8 is provided in the middle of the pallet storage rack 11, so that the pallet 8 in the intelligent bundling system is loaded in the form of a pallet stack composed of multiple horizontally placed pallets 8 and stored in the pallet storage cavity 111, which is beneficial to improving the convenience and flexibility of the pallet 8 loading.

[0049] The scooping supporting device 12 is installed on both sides of the lower part of the storage tray frame 11, and the scooping supporting device 12 can be close to and away from the storage tray cavity 111. When the scooping supporting device 12 is close to the storage tray cavity 111, the scooping supporting device 12 is used to support the pallet 8, and the pallet 8 and the storage tray frame 11 are relatively stationary. When the scooping supporting device 12 is away from the storage tray cavity 111, the pallet 8 is separated from the support of the scooping supporting device 12, and the pallet 8 can move freely in the storage tray cavity 111. This scheme utilizes the movement of the scooping supporting device 12 relative to the storage tray cavity 111 to achieve the effect of separating the pallet 8 from the pallet stack, thereby providing feasibility for improving the portability of loading the pallet 8.

[0050] The discharging device 14 is installed at the bottom of the storage cavity 111, and the unloading end of the discharging device 14 protrudes from the outside of the storage frame 11. When the pallet 8 is separated from the pallet stack, under the action of the top support seat 13, the separated pallet 8 can be placed on the conveying surface of the discharging device 14, and the pallet 8 is conveyed from the storage cavity 111 to the outside of the storage frame 11 by the discharging device 14, and then the unloading end of the discharging device 14 is connected with the pallet conveying front section of the turning mechanism 3 by the transfer mechanism 2, so as to facilitate the transfer of the pallet 8 by the transfer mechanism 2, and the conveying direction of the discharging device 14 is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the transfer mechanism 2, which is conducive to making the structure of the intelligent strapping system more compact and improving the transfer efficiency of the pallet loading process.

[0051] Further, the pallet loading mechanism 1 includes a pushing device 15, which is installed at the lower part of the pallet storage frame 11, and the pushing device 15 is arranged close to the unloading end of the pallet discharging device 14, and the pushing device 15 is used to push the pallet 8 located at the pallet discharging device 14 toward the transfer mechanism 2;

[0052] The pushing device 15 includes a pushing mounting seat 151, a lifting seat 152, a pushing driver 153 and a pushing plate 154; the pushing mounting seat 151 is installed on the lower outer side of the storage rack 11, and the pushing mounting seat 151 is located above the unloading end of the tray discharging device 14; the lifting seat 152 is installed on the pushing mounting seat 151 so as to be movable up and down; the pushing driver 153 and the pushing plate 154 are both fixedly installed on the lifting seat 152, and the pushing driver 153 is located on the inner side of the lifting seat 152, and the pushing plate 154 is located on the outer side of the lifting seat 152, the output shaft of the pushing driver 153 is connected to the pushing plate 154, and the pushing driver 153 is used to drive the pushing out and retraction of the pushing plate 154.

[0053] In a preferred embodiment of the present technical solution, the plate loading mechanism 1 includes a pushing device 15, such as Figure 2-3As shown, the setting of the pushing device 15 is beneficial to pushing the pallet 8 at the discharging end of the discharging device 14 towards the transfer mechanism 2, thereby ensuring the complete loading of the pallet 8 on the transfer mechanism 2.

[0054] Specifically, the pushing device 15 in this solution includes a pushing mounting base 151, a lifting seat 152, a pushing driver 153, and a pushing plate 154. When the pallet 8 is conveyed to the discharging end of the discharging device 14, most of the structure of the pallet 8 is first received by the transfer mechanism 2, but a small part of the structure of the pallet 8 is outside the transfer mechanism 2. To ensure the complete loading of the pallet 8 on the transfer mechanism 2, at this time, the pushing plate 154 first descends under the drive of the lifting seat 152 and aligns with the side of the pallet 8, and then the pushing driver 153 drives the pushing plate 154 to push out, pushing the small part of the pallet 8 outside the transfer mechanism 2 onto the transfer mechanism 2. The structure is simple and the performance is reliable.

[0055] It should be noted that the pushing driver 153 in this solution can be a driving cylinder, which is not limited here.

[0056] Furthermore, the transfer mechanism 2 includes a transfer conveyor line 21, a receiving seat 22, and a blocking component 23.

[0057] The receiving seat 22 is installed at the bottom of the transfer conveyor line 21. A plurality of receiving rollers 221 are rotatably arranged at the top of the receiving seat 22. The rotating shafts of the receiving rollers 221 are parallel to the conveying direction of the transfer conveyor line 21, and the receiving rollers 221 can move up and down relative to the conveying surface of the transfer conveyor line 21. The blocking component 23 is installed at the top of the transfer conveyor line 21. The blocking component 23 is located on one side of the transfer conveyor line 21 away from the pallet loading mechanism 1, and the blocking component 23 is used to block the pallet 8. The blocking component 23 includes a movably arranged blocking plate 231, and the blocking plate 231 can move away from and close to the pallet loading mechanism 1.

[0058] In another preferred embodiment of the present technical solution, the transfer mechanism 2 includes a transfer conveyor line 21, a receiving support 22 and a retaining and supporting assembly 23. Among them, a plurality of receiving rollers 221 are rotatably arranged on the top of the receiving support 22, and the receiving rollers 221 can move up and down relative to the conveying surface of the transfer conveyor line 21. When the transfer mechanism 2 needs to receive the pallet 8 at the discharging end of the person-out tray device 14, the receiving support 22 first rises and protrudes above the conveying surface of the transfer conveyor line 21, and then the pushing and supporting device 15 completely pushes the pallet 8 onto the middle of the receiving support 22. In addition, the rotatable receiving rollers 221 can effectively reduce the friction between the receiving support 22 and the pallet 8, so as to realize the effective material receiving of the receiving support 22. The setting of the retaining and supporting assembly 23 can fine-tune the conveying track of the pallet 8, which is beneficial to preventing the pallet 8 from deviating from the conveying track of the transfer conveyor line 21 or even falling off the transfer mechanism 2. When the receiving support 22 receives the pallet 8 and, under the action of the pushing and supporting device 15 and the retaining and supporting assembly 23, the pallet 8 is located on the conveying track of the transfer conveyor line 21, the receiving support 22 descends and makes the pallet 8 contact the top of the transfer conveyor line 21, so as to be conveyed to the front end of the pallet conveying of the flipping mechanism 3 under the drive of the transfer conveyor line 21.

[0059] It should be noted that the transfer conveyor line 21 in this solution can be a conventional conveyor line in the field of ceramic tile packaging, such as a conveyor belt, a conveyor chain or conveyor rollers for realizing the conveying of corresponding materials. The specific structure of the transfer conveyor line 21 will not be described here. The receiving support 22 in this solution is a conventional lifting seat in the field of ceramic tile packaging, and its top can move up and down to realize the lifting of the materials carried by it. The specific structure of the receiving support 22 will not be described here.

[0060] Furthermore, the pocket supporting device 12 includes a first driver 121, a transmission seat 122 and a supporting bar 123. The first driver 121 is fixedly installed at the lower part of the storage support frame 11. The transmission seat 122 is slidably installed at the lower part of the storage support frame 11. The supporting bar 123 protrudes from the side of the transmission seat 122 facing the storage cavity 111. The output shaft of the first driver 121 is connected to the transmission seat 122. The first driver 121 is used to drive the supporting bar 123 to approach and move away from the storage cavity 111 through the transmission seat 122.

[0061] In an embodiment of the present technical solution, the pocket supporting device 12 includes a first driver 121, a transmission seat 122 and a supporting bar 123 connected in sequence, as Figure 4As shown, the first driver 121 drives the support bar 123 to approach and move away from the storage cavity 111 through the transmission seat 122. Since the support bar 123 is protrudingly arranged on the side of the transmission seat 122 facing the storage cavity 111, and in addition, the bottom of the conventional pallet 8 in the field of tile packaging has an escape gap, the support bar 123 supports the escape gap of the second to last pallet 8 in the pallet stack, so that the penultimate pallet 8 in the pallet stack can be freely moved and moved downward to the top of the conveying surface of the discharging device 14 under the action of the top support seat 13. The scooping device 12 of this solution has a simple structure and reliable performance, and can effectively realize the function of separating the pallet 8 from the pallet stack, so as to facilitate the rapid and convenient loading of the pallet 8.

[0062] Further, the storage and holding device 12 further includes a swinging assembly 124, which is installed between the transmission seat 122 and the support bar 123, and the swinging assembly 124 is used to realize the swinging of the support bar 123 toward the storage and holding cavity 111;

[0063] The swing assembly 124 includes an L-shaped mounting rod 1241, a second driver 1242 and a rotating seat 1243, and the rotating seat 1243 includes a first connecting column 12431, a second connecting column 12432 and a connecting block 12433, and the first connecting column 12431 and the second connecting column 12432 are parallel to each other and fixedly connected to the connecting block 12433 respectively;

[0064] The L-shaped mounting rod 1241 includes a long side and a short side which are perpendicular to each other, and the short side is located on the outer side of the long side, the inner side of the long side is fixedly connected to the transmission seat 122, and the outer end of the long side is sleeved on the first connecting column 12431, and the first connecting column 12431 is rotatably arranged inside the outer end of the long side; the outer end of the short side is hinged to the bottom of the second driver 1242, so that the second driver 1242 can swing relative to the L-shaped mounting rod 1241; the top end of the output shaft of the second driver 1242 is sleeved on the second connecting column 12432, and the second connecting column 12432 is rotatably arranged inside the top end of the output shaft of the second driver 1242; the support bar 123 is fixedly connected to the connecting block 12433, and the second driver 1242 is used to drive the support bar 123 to swing toward the storage cavity 111.

[0065] In a preferred embodiment of the present technical solution, in addition to being able to achieve linear relative movement, the supporting device 12 can also achieve swinging with the first connecting column 12431 as the axis.

[0066] In order to improve the versatility of the supporting device 12 so that the supporting device 12 can simultaneously support pallets 8 of different sizes, the present solution further adds a swinging assembly 124 to achieve the swinging of the supporting bar 123, so that the supporting device 12 can support the pallet 8 from the front and rear ends in the conveying direction of the pallet discharging device 14, enabling the supporting device 12 to select to support the pallet 8 from any one or multiple sides among the four sides of the pallet 8, ensuring the effectiveness and versatility of the support.

[0067] Specifically, the swinging assembly 124 in the present solution includes an L-shaped mounting rod 1241, a second driver 1242, and a rotating seat 1243, and the rotating seat 1243 includes a first connecting column 12431, a second connecting column 12432, and a connecting block 12433. When the supporting bar 123 needs to swing for support, the first driver 121 can first drive the supporting bar 123 to approach the storage cavity 111 through the transmission seat 122, and then the output shaft of the second driver extends towards the direction of the storage cavity 111. Under the connection of the second driver and the rotating seat 1243, the second driver will slightly deflect towards the outside of the L-shaped mounting rod 1241 due to the hinge action with the L-shaped mounting rod 1241, thereby ensuring that the rotating seat 1243 rotates around the first connecting column 12321. Since the supporting bar 123 is connected to the connecting block 12433 of the rotating seat 1243, the supporting bar 123 is enabled to swing around the first connecting column 12431.

[0068] Furthermore, the turnover mechanism 3 includes a first translation slide rail 31, a moving seat 32, a turnover frame 33, a pallet supporting device 34, and a tile supporting device 35. The moving seat 32 is slidably mounted on the top of the first translation slide rail 31, the turnover frame 33 is rotatably mounted on the top of the moving seat 32. The turnover frame 33 includes a pallet supporting surface and a tile supporting surface that are perpendicular to each other, and the pallet supporting device 34 is mounted on the pallet supporting surface, and the tile supporting device 35 is mounted on the tile supporting surface;

[0069] The bundling mechanism 4 includes a second translation slide rail 41, a bundling frame 42, and a bundling device 43. The bundling frame 42 is slidably mounted on the top of the second translation slide rail 41, and the sliding direction of the bundling frame 42 is parallel to the sliding direction of the moving seat 32. The bundling device 43 is fixedly mounted on the bundling frame 42, and the bundling device 43 is used to bundle the tiles 9 located on the tile supporting device 35;

[0070] The pallet supporting device 34 includes a pallet conveying roller 341 and a clamping assembly 342. The pallet conveying roller 341 is rotatably installed on the pallet supporting surface, and the conveying direction of the pallet conveying roller 341 is parallel to the conveying direction of the transfer mechanism 2. The clamping assembly 342 is arranged on both sides perpendicular to the conveying direction of the pallet conveying roller 341, and the clamping assembly 342 is used to clamp and loosen the pallet 8 located on the top of the pallet conveying roller 341;

[0071] The ceramic tile supporting device 35 includes a plurality of protective brackets 351. The plurality of protective brackets 152 are spaced and installed on the top of the ceramic tile supporting surface. The protective bracket 351 includes a support bar 3511 and a protective bar 3512 that are perpendicular to each other, and the extending direction of the support bar 3511 is perpendicular to the sliding direction of the bundling machine frame 42. The protective bar 3512 is connected to one end of the support bar 3511, and the support bar 3511 is used to support the ceramic tile 9.

[0072] Bundling generally refers to a packaging operation in which single or several products are directly tied tightly with ropes and plastic steel belts (PET plastic steel packaging belts) for easy transportation, storage and handling. Stacking several products together is called palletizing. The post-packaging palletizing process in the ceramic building materials field directly affects the efficiency of the entire packaging, and the way of bundling and supporting the whole stack after palletizing will directly relate to the processes of loading the goods onto the vehicle, logistics transportation and warehousing. At present, most of the palletizing and bundling in the ceramic industry adopt manual packaging, which has high costs, low efficiency and significant safety factors.

[0073] For the intelligent bundling system of this solution, since the methods of manual feeding, palletizing and bundling and discharging are all converted into automatic feeding, palletizing and bundling and discharging methods, in order to ensure the smooth progress of the above processes, this solution also improves the structures of the turnover and supporting mechanism 3 and the bundling mechanism 4.

[0074] Specifically, the turnover and supporting mechanism 3 and the bundling mechanism 4 in this solution are both movable structures, as Figure 5-8 shown, and the sliding direction of the bundling machine frame 42 and the sliding direction of the moving seat 32 are parallel to each other; the setting of the movable structure, on the one hand, can make the working end of the bundling mechanism 4 and the working surface of the turnover and supporting mechanism 3 be misaligned, which is beneficial to ensuring the smooth feeding of the pallet 8 and the ceramic tile 9. When the bundling mechanism 4 needs to be inspected and repaired, it will not be hindered by the turnover and supporting mechanism 3; on the other hand, the installation positions of the turnover and supporting mechanism 3 and the bundling mechanism 4 can be adjusted according to the moving ranges of the pallet feeding robotic arm 6 and the ceramic tile feeding robotic arm 7, which is beneficial to further improving the versatility of the intelligent bundling system.

[0075] Furthermore, the pallet supporting device 34 of this solution includes a pallet conveying roller 341 and a clamping assembly 342. The pallet conveying roller 341 is rotatably installed on the pallet supporting surface, and the conveying direction of the pallet conveying roller 341 is parallel to the conveying direction of the transfer mechanism 2. The clamping assembly 342 for clamping and releasing the pallet 8 is arranged on both sides perpendicular to the conveying direction of the pallet conveying roller 341, so that the pallet supporting device 34 can realize the feeding of the pallet 8 from the transfer mechanism 2 to the turnover mechanism 3, and at the same time, through the pallet 8, realize the discharging of the bundled products from the turnover mechanism 3 to the transfer mechanism 2.

[0076] Furthermore, the tile supporting device 35 of this solution includes a plurality of spaced-apart protective brackets 351, which provide a supporting force for the placement of the tiles 9 on the top of the tile supporting surface to prevent the collapse of the tile stack. The protective bracket 351 includes a support bar 3511 and a protective bar 3512 that are perpendicular to each other, and the extending direction of the support bar 3511 is perpendicular to the sliding direction of the bundling rack 42. When the bundling rack 42 moves to different bundling positions of the tiles 9 after stacking, the setting of the support bar 3511 does not prevent the bundling device 43 from performing the bundling operation, which is convenient for ensuring the smooth progress of the bundling.

[0077] The working processes of the turnover mechanism 3 and the bundling mechanism 4 in this solution are as follows: (1) Translate the turnover mechanism 3 to make the turnover mechanism 3 close to the transfer mechanism 2, and then flip the turnover mechanism 3 to make the pallet supporting surface in the turnover mechanism 3 horizontal. Finally, translate the bundling mechanism 4 so that its working end is misaligned with the pallet supporting surface; (2) Through the transfer mechanism 2, convey the pallet 8 to the top of the pallet conveying roller 341, and drive the clamping assembly 342 to make the clamping assembly 342 clamp the pallet 8; (3) Flip the turnover mechanism 3 to make the tile supporting surface in the turnover mechanism 3 horizontal, and translate the turnover mechanism 3 and / or the bundling mechanism 4 to make the working end of the bundling mechanism 4 misaligned with the tile supporting surface; (4) Use the tile loading robotic arm 7 to transfer the tiles 9 from the tile loading mechanism 5 to the turnover mechanism 3, and make the tile loading robotic arm 7 repeat the above transfer motion to complete the stacking of the tiles 9 on the top of the tile supporting surface. Then, translate the bundling mechanism 4 so that its working end is aligned with the tile stack, and then perform the bundling operation through the bundling device 43; (5) Flip the turnover mechanism 3 to make the pallet supporting surface in the turnover mechanism 3 horizontal, and at this time, the bundled tile stack is placed on the top of the pallet 8; (6) Make the working end of the bundling mechanism 4 misaligned with the pallet supporting surface, and convey the bundled tile stack from the pallet conveying roller 341 to the transfer mechanism 2 through the pallet 8 for discharging.

[0078] It should be noted that the clamping assembly 342 in this solution is a structural member that can realize the material clamping function, and the specific structure of the clamping assembly 342 will not be described here; in addition, the bundling device 43 in this solution is a device commonly used in the field of tile packaging to realize the bundling function, and will not be described in detail here.

[0079] Preferably, the turnover mechanism 3 further includes a buffer assembly 37. The buffer assembly 37 includes a buffer mounting strip 371 and a buffer pad 372. The buffer mounting strip 371 protrudes from both ends in the extending direction of the first translation slide rail 31. The buffer pad 372 protrudes from the upper part of the inner side of the buffer mounting strip 371. The buffer pad 372 is used to abut against the moving seat 32.

[0080] In a more optimal embodiment of the present technical solution, the turnover mechanism 3 further includes a buffer assembly 37. The buffer assembly 37 includes a buffer mounting strip 371 protruding from both ends in the extending direction of the first translation slide rail 31 and a buffer pad 372 protruding from the upper part of the inner side of the buffer mounting strip 371. The buffer mounting strip 371 can limit the moving stroke of the moving seat 32 to avoid derailment, and the buffer pad 372 can effectively prevent the collision between the moving seat 32 and the buffer mounting strip 371, playing a buffering role.

[0081] It should be noted that the buffer pad 372 in this solution can be made of flexible materials such as rubber and silica gel.

[0082] Preferably, the side shape of the moving seat 32 is an isosceles trapezoid, and the bottom length of the moving seat 32 along the moving direction is greater than the top length of the moving seat 32 along the moving direction.

[0083] In another more optimal embodiment of the present technical solution, the side shape of the moving seat 32 is an isosceles trapezoid, and the bottom length of the moving seat 32 along the moving direction is greater than the top length of the moving seat 32 along the moving direction, which is beneficial to improving the moving stability of the turnover mechanism 3 and effectively ensuring the installation stability of the turnover frame 33.

[0084] Furthermore, the pallet supporting device 34 further includes a supporting roller 343 and a retaining strip 344. The supporting roller 343 is rotatably installed on the side of the turnover frame 33, and the supporting roller 343 is arranged near the front end of the pallet conveying of the pallet conveying roller 341. The extending direction of the supporting roller 343 is parallel to the extending direction of the pallet conveying roller 341. The retaining strip 344 protrudes from the rear end of the pallet conveying of the pallet conveying roller 341. The retaining strip 344 is used to prevent the pallet 8 from detaching from the pallet conveying roller 341.

[0085] In a preferred embodiment of the present technical solution, the pallet supporting device 34 further includes a supporting roller 343 and a stop bar 344. The supporting roller 343 installed on the side of the turnover and support frame 33 can play a transitional role between the pallet conveying roller 341 and the transfer mechanism 2, facilitating better reception of the pallet 2 conveyed from the transfer mechanism 2. At the same time, it can also provide additional supporting force for the pallet 8 during the discharging process of the bundled ceramic tile stack from the turnover and support mechanism 3 to the transfer mechanism 2. The stop bar 344 protruding from the rear end of the pallet conveying roller 341 can effectively prevent the pallet 8 from derailing.

[0086] Furthermore, the turnover and support mechanism 3 further includes a plurality of support rods 36. The plurality of support rods 36 are vertically connected to one end of the first translation slide rail 31 at intervals. The support rods 36 are used to support the bottom of the turnover and support frame 33 opposite to the ceramic tile supporting surface.

[0087] Since the ceramic tile supporting surface of the turnover and support mechanism 3 requires a relatively large supporting force, to avoid damage to the turnover and support mechanism 3, this solution also adds support rods 36 to provide additional supporting force for the turnover and support mechanism 3, thereby playing an auxiliary role in the support of the ceramic tiles 9 by the turnover and support mechanism 3.

[0088] Furthermore, the ceramic tile supporting device 35 further includes a fixed bracket 352 and a movable bracket 353. The fixed bracket 352 is fixedly installed on the top of the ceramic tile supporting surface. The movable bracket 353 is movably installed on the top of the fixed bracket 352. The protective bracket 351 is fixedly installed on the top of the movable bracket 353. And the moving direction of the movable bracket 353 is perpendicular to the extending direction of the support bar 3511. The movable bracket 353 is used to move the protective bracket 351 closer to and farther away from the pallet conveying roller 341.

[0089] In another preferred embodiment of the present technical solution, the ceramic tile supporting device 35 further includes a fixed bracket 352 and a movable bracket 353. The movable bracket 353 is movably installed on the top of the fixed bracket 352, and its moving direction is perpendicular to the extending direction of the support bar 3511. When the ceramic tiles 9 are stacked and bundled on the protective bracket 351, the movable bracket 353 can be used to reduce the distance between the protective bracket 351 and the pallet conveying roller 341. Preferably, the movable bracket 353 is used to make the bundled ceramic tile stack abut against the pallet 8 on the pallet conveying roller 341, so as to avoid collision between the ceramic tile stack and the pallet 8 during the flipping process and cause damage to the ceramic tiles.

[0090] It should be noted that the movement of the movable bracket 353 in this solution can be realized by a driving motor or a driving cylinder, thereby improving the automation degree of the flipping mechanism 3.

[0091] Preferably, the tile supporting device 35 further includes a lifting driver 354. The lifting driver 354 is installed on the top of the movable bracket 353. The output end of the lifting driver 354 is connected to the bottom of the support bar 3511, and the connection position between the output end of the lifting driver 354 and the bottom of the support bar 3511 is located at one end of the support bar 3511 away from the protective bar 3512. The lifting driver 354 is used to incline the support bar 3511.

[0092] Further, the tile supporting device 35 in this solution further includes a lifting driver 354 for inclining the support bar 3511. After the support bar 3511 is inclined, the tiles 9 can be abutted against the protective bar 3512 in the protective bracket 351. On the one hand, the stacked tiles 9 can be aligned, which is convenient for bundling. On the other hand, the stability of the tile stack can be improved, which is convenient for flipping.

[0093] It should be noted that the lifting driver 354 in this solution can be a driving cylinder.

[0095] The turning and supporting frame 33 further includes a limiting block 332, and the limiting block 332 protrudes from the outer side wall of the support plate 331; a limiting seat 322 also protrudes from the top of the moving seat 32, and the limiting seat 322 is provided with a limiting groove for accommodating the limiting block 332.

[0096] The turning frame 33 is rotatably installed on the moving seat 32. The turning frame 33 is integrally formed with a support plate 331 whose outer contour is arc-shaped. A support wheel 321 rotatably connected to the top of the moving seat 32 abuts against the support plate 331. During the rotation of the turning frame 33, the support wheel 321 can keep in contact with the support plate 331 and provide a supporting force for the support plate 331 and the turning frame 33, so that the turning frame 33 can rotate on the moving seat 32.

The combined action of the limiting seat 322 and the limiting block 332 can limit the rotation stroke of the turning frame 33.

[0098] Preferably, at least two limiting blocks 332 are provided. One limiting block 332 protrudes from the outer side wall of the support plate 331 close to the pallet supporting device 34, and the other limiting block 332 protrudes from the outer side wall of the support plate 331 close to the ceramic tile supporting device 35;

[0099] The limiting seat 322 is provided with at least two limiting grooves, and the two limiting grooves are respectively located on both sides of the limiting seat 322 along the moving direction of the moving seat 32.
