The turnover pallet mechanism 3 is installed inside the working end of the strapping mechanism 4, and the strapping mechanism 4 is used to strap the ceramic tile 9 located on the turnover pallet mechanism 3.

[0041] The pallet loading mechanism 1 includes a storage pallet rack 11, a pocket supporting device 12, a top supporting seat 13 and a pallet discharging device 14; a storage pallet cavity 111 for storing pallets 8 is left in the middle of the storage pallet rack 11; the pocket supporting device 12 is installed on both sides of the lower part of the storage pallet rack 11, and the pocket supporting device 12 can approach and move away from the storage pallet cavity 111.

[0042] In order to realize the stacking, bundling and automatic conveying of ceramic tiles, the present technical solution proposes an automatic bundling system, as Figures 1-9 shown, which 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, a pallet loading robotic arm 6 and a ceramic tile loading robotic arm 7; among them, the working process of the automatic bundling system is generally divided into three steps: pallet loading, ceramic tile loading and bundling and discharging. In the pallet loading step, first use the pallet loading mechanism 1 to realize the loading of the pallet 8, then use the pallet loading robotic arm 6 to transfer the pallet 8 from the pallet loading mechanism 1 to the transfer mechanism 2, and then use the transfer mechanism 2 to convey the pallet 8 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 realize the loading of the ceramic tiles 9, then use the ceramic tile loading robotic arm 7 to transfer the ceramic tiles 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-mentioned transfer movement to complete the stacking of the ceramic tiles 9 in the pallet turning mechanism 3. In the bundling and discharging step, use the bundling mechanism 4 to bundle the ceramic tiles 9 located in the pallet turning mechanism 3, and finally use the transfer mechanism 2 to realize the discharging of the bundled products, so as to complete the entire working process of the automatic bundling system. An automatic bundling system proposed by this solution loads ceramic tiles and pallets used to assist the conveying of ceramic tiles independently, can efficiently realize the stacking, bundling and automatic conveying of 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 is convenient for effectively improving the stacking and transfer efficiency of ceramic tile packaging.

[0043] It should be noted that in this solution, the transfer mechanism 2, the tile loading mechanism 5, and the pallet discharging device 14 can be conventional conveyor lines in the field of tile packaging, such as conveyor belts, conveyor chains, or conveyor rollers for realizing the conveying of corresponding materials. The specific structures of the transfer mechanism 2, the tile loading mechanism 5, and the pallet discharging device 14 will not be described here. In addition, the pallet loading robotic arm 6 and the tile loading robotic arm 7 in this solution are multi-degree-of-freedom robotic arms with the function of grasping the pallet 8 and the tile 9. They are composed of conventional multi-degree-of-freedom joint components in the field of robotic arms and clamping components with grasping functions, such as fixtures or suction cups. The specific structures of the pallet loading robotic arm 6 and the tile loading robotic arm 7 will not be described here. The top support base 13 in this solution is a conventional lifting base in the field of tile packaging, and its top can move up and down to realize the lifting of the materials it carries. The specific structure of the top support base 13 will not be described here.

[0044] Further, the pallet loading mechanism 1 in this solution includes a pallet storage rack 11, a pallet holding device 12, a top support base 13, and a pallet discharging device 14; a pallet storage cavity 111 for storing the pallets 8 is provided in the middle of the pallet storage rack 11, so that the pallets 8 in the automatic strapping system are 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 pallet 8 loading.

[0045] The pallet holding device 12 is installed on both sides of the lower part of the pallet storage rack 11, and the pallet holding device 12 can approach and move away from the pallet storage cavity 111. When the pallet holding device 12 approaches the pallet storage cavity 111, the pallet holding device 12 is used to support the pallet 8, and the pallet 8 is stationary relative to the pallet storage rack 11. When the pallet holding device 12 moves away from the pallet storage cavity 111, the pallet 8 is separated from the support of the pallet holding device 12. At this time, the pallet 8 can move freely in the pallet storage cavity 111; this solution utilizes the movement of the pallet holding device 12 relative to the pallet storage cavity 111 to realize the separation of the pallet 8 from the pallet stack, providing feasibility for improving the portability of pallet 8 loading.

[0046] The pallet discharging device 14 is installed at the bottom of the pallet storage cavity 111, and the discharging end of the pallet discharging device 14 protrudes outside the pallet storage rack 11. After the pallet 8 is separated from the pallet stack, under the action of the top support base 13, the separated pallet 8 can be placed on the conveying surface of the pallet discharging device 14, and the pallet discharging device 14 conveys the pallet 8 from the pallet storage cavity 111 to the outside of the pallet storage rack 11, which is convenient for the pallet loading robotic arm 6 to transfer the pallet 8. Moreover, the conveying direction of the pallet discharging device 14 is parallel to the conveying direction of the transfer mechanism 2, which is beneficial to making the structure of the automatic strapping system more compact, effectively shortening the transfer distance of the pallet loading robotic arm 6, and improving the transfer efficiency during the pallet loading process.

[0047] Further elaboration is as follows. The pocket support device 12 includes a first driver 121, a transmission seat 122, and a support 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 support 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 support bar 123 to approach and move away from the storage cavity 111 through the transmission seat 122.

[0048] In an embodiment of the present technical solution, the pocket support device 12 includes a first driver 121, a transmission seat 122, and a support bar 123 that are connected in sequence. As Figure 5 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 protrudes from the side of the transmission seat 122 facing the storage cavity 111, in addition, a clearance for avoidance is left at the bottom of the conventional pallet 8 in the field of tile packaging. By supporting the clearance for avoidance of the second-to-last pallet 8 in the pallet stack with the support bar 123, the last pallet 8 in the pallet stack can move freely, and under the action of the top support seat 13, it moves downward to the top of the conveying surface of the pallet discharging device 14. The pocket support device 12 of this solution has a simple structure and reliable performance, can effectively realize the separation of the pallet 8 from the pallet stack, and is convenient for realizing the rapid and convenient loading of the pallet 8.

[0049] Further elaboration is as follows. The pocket support device 12 further includes a swing assembly 124. The swing assembly 124 is installed between the transmission seat 122 and the support bar 123, and the swing assembly 124 is used to realize the swing of the support bar 123 towards the storage cavity 111;

[0050] The swing assembly 124 includes an L-shaped mounting rod 1241, a second driver 1242, and a rotating seat 1243. The rotating seat 1243 includes a first connecting column 12431, a second connecting column 12432, and a connecting block 12433. The first connecting column 12431 and the second connecting column 12432 are fixedly connected to the connecting block 12433 in parallel with each other;

[0051] 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.

[0052] 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.

[0053] In order to improve the versatility of the scoop-holding device 12 and enable it to simultaneously support pallets 8 of different sizes, the present solution further adds a swing assembly 124 to realize the swing of the support bar 123, so that the scoop-holding device 12 can complete the support of the pallet 8 from the front and rear ends in the conveying direction of the pallet discharging device 14, so that the scoop-holding device 12 can choose to support from any one or more of the four sides of the pallet 8, thereby ensuring the effectiveness and versatility of the support.

[0054] Specifically, the swing 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 support bar 123 is required to swing support, the first driver 121 can be used to drive the support bar 123 to approach the storage and support cavity 111 through the transmission seat 122, and then the output shaft of the second driver is extended toward the storage and support cavity 111. Under the connection between the second driver and the rotating seat 1243, the second driver will be slightly deflected toward the outside of the L-shaped mounting rod 1241 due to the hinged effect with the L-shaped mounting rod 1241, thereby ensuring that the rotating seat 1243 generates a rotation with the first connecting column 12321 as the axis, and because the support bar 123 is connected to the connecting block 12433 of the rotating seat 1243, the support bar 123 can realize the swing with the first connecting column 12431 as the axis.

[0055] For further illustration, the outfeed device 14 includes an outfeed conveyor line 141, an outfeed baffle 142, and a centering assembly 143. The loading end of the outfeed conveyor line 141 is located at the bottom of the storage tray cavity 111, and the unloading end of the outfeed conveyor line 141 protrudes outside the storage tray rack 11. The outfeed baffle 142 protrudes and is provided at the unloading end of the outfeed conveyor line 141, and the outfeed baffle 142 is used to block the conveyance of the tray 8.

[0056] In a preferred embodiment of the present technical solution, the outfeed device 14 includes an outfeed conveyor line 141, an outfeed baffle 142, and a centering assembly 143, as Figure 4 shown.

[0057] Among them, the outfeed conveyor line 141 is used to convey the tray 8 from the storage tray cavity 111 to the outside of the storage tray rack 11. It should be noted that the outfeed conveyor line 141 in this solution can be a complete conveyor line or composed of multiple conveyor lines connected end to end. At the unloading end of the outfeed conveyor line 141, an outfeed baffle 142 for blocking the conveyance of the tray 8 is provided, which is beneficial to preventing the tray 8 from falling from the outfeed conveyor line 141, thereby ensuring the smooth progress of the tray 8 loading process. The centering assembly 143 is used to finely adjust the unloading and placement position of the tray 8, facilitating the accurate grasping and transfer of the tray 8 by the tray loading robot arm 6, reducing the alignment and debugging times of the automatic strapping system, and improving the transfer efficiency of the automatic strapping system.

The tray turning rack 33 includes a tray supporting surface and a tile supporting surface that are perpendicular to each other, and the tray supporting device 34 is mounted on the tray supporting surface, and the tile supporting device 35 is mounted on the tile supporting surface;

[0059] The strapping mechanism 4 includes a second translation slide rail 41, a strapping rack 42, and a strapping device 43. The strapping rack 42 is slidably mounted on the top of the second translation slide rail 41, and the sliding direction of the strapping rack 42 is parallel to the sliding direction of the moving seat 32. The strapping device 43 is fixedly mounted on the strapping rack 42, and the strapping device 43 is used to strap the tiles 9 located on the tile supporting device 35;

[0060] 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 release the pallet 8 located on the top of the pallet conveying roller 341;

[0061] 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.

[0062] 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 loading and unloading. 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 whole-stack bundling and supporting method after palletizing will directly relate to the processes of shipping and loading, logistics transportation, and warehousing. Currently, most of the palletizing and bundling in the ceramic industry are done manually, which is costly, inefficient, and has significant safety risks.

[0063] In the automatic 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, the structures of the turnover and supporting mechanism 3 and the bundling mechanism 4 are also improved in this solution.

[0064] Specifically, as Figures 6-9 shown, both the turnover and supporting mechanism 3 and the bundling mechanism 4 in this solution are movable structures, and the sliding direction of the bundling machine frame 42 is parallel to the sliding direction of the moving seat 32; 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 automatic bundling system.

[0065] 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 loosening 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.

[0066] 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 machine frame 42. When the bundling machine frame 42 moves to different bundling positions of the tiles 9 after palletizing, the setting of the support bar 3511 does not interfere with the bundling operation of the bundling device 43, which is convenient for ensuring the smooth progress of bundling.

[0067] 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) Convey the pallet 8 to the top of the pallet conveying roller 341 through the transfer mechanism 2, 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 palletizing 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.

[0068] 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.

[0069] For further illustration, the pallet supporting device 34 further includes a supporting roller 343 and a retaining bar 344; the supporting roller 343 is rotatably installed on the side surface of the turning and pallet turning frame 33, and the supporting roller 343 is arranged near the front end of the pallet conveying of the pallet conveying roller 341, and the extending direction of the supporting roller 343 is parallel to the extending direction of the pallet conveying roller 341; the retaining bar 344 protrudes from the rear end of the pallet conveying of the pallet conveying roller 341, and the retaining bar 344 is used to prevent the pallet 8 from detaching from the pallet conveying roller 341.

[0070] In a preferred embodiment of the present technical solution, the pallet supporting device 34 further includes a supporting roller 343 and a retaining bar 344. The supporting roller 343 installed on the side surface of the turning and pallet turning frame 33 can play a transitional role between the pallet conveying roller 341 and the transfer mechanism 2, facilitating better catching 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 blanking process of the bundled ceramic tile stack from the turning and pallet turning mechanism 3 to the transfer mechanism 2. The retaining bar 344 protruding from the rear end of the pallet conveying of the pallet conveying roller 341 can effectively prevent the pallet 8 from derailing.

[0071] For further illustration, the turning and pallet turning mechanism 3 further includes a plurality of support rods 36, and the plurality of support rods 36 are vertically connected to one end of the first translation slide rail 31 at intervals, and the support rods 36 are used to support the bottom of the turning and pallet turning frame 33 opposite to the ceramic tile supporting surface.

[0072] Since the ceramic tile supporting surface of the turning and pallet turning mechanism 3 requires a relatively large supporting force, to avoid damage to the turning and pallet turning mechanism 3, this solution further adds support rods 36 to provide additional supporting force for the turning and pallet turning mechanism 3, thereby playing an auxiliary role in the support of the ceramic tiles 9 by the turning and pallet turning mechanism 3.

[0073] For further illustration, 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.

[0074] In another preferred embodiment of the present technical solution, the 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 tiles 9 are palletized and bundled on the protective bracket 351, the movable bracket 353 can be used to shorten the distance between the protective bracket 351 and the pallet conveying roller 341. Preferably, the movable bracket 353 is used to make the bundled tile stack abut against the pallet 8 on the pallet conveying roller 341, so as to avoid the collision between the tile stack and the pallet 8 during the flipping process and cause tile damage.

[0075] 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.

[0076] 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 far from the protective bar 3512. The lifting driver 354 is used to realize the inclined setting of the support bar 3511.

[0077] Furthermore, the tile supporting device 35 in this solution further includes a lifting driver 354 for realizing the inclined setting of the support bar 3511. The inclined support bar 3511 can make the tiles 9 abut against the protective bar 3512 in the protective bracket 351. On the one hand, it can align the palletized tiles 9 for easy bundling. On the other hand, it can improve the stability of the tile stack for easy flipping.

[0078] It should be noted that the lifting driver 354 in this solution can be a driving cylinder.

[0079] Furthermore, the turning and supporting mechanism 3 further includes a buffer assembly 37. The buffer assembly 37 includes a buffer mounting bar 371 and a buffer pad 372. The buffer mounting bar 371 protrudes from both ends in the extending direction of the first translation slide rail 31. The buffer pad 372 protrudes from the upper inner side of the buffer mounting bar 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 turning and supporting mechanism 3 further includes a buffer assembly 37, and the buffer assembly 37 includes buffer mounting bars 371 protruding from both ends of the first translation slide rail 31 in the extending direction and buffer pads 372 protruding from the upper part of the inner side of the buffer mounting bars 371. The arrangement of the buffer mounting bars 371 can limit the moving stroke of the moving seat 32 to avoid derailment, while the arrangement of the buffer pads 372 can effectively prevent the collision between the moving seat 32 and the buffer mounting bars 371, playing a buffering role.

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

[0082] Furthermore, 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 turning mechanism 3 and effectively ensuring the installation stability of the turning frame 33.

A limiting seat 322 capable of accommodating the limiting block 332 through a limiting groove is also protrudingly arranged on the top of the moving seat 32. The combined action of the limiting seat 322 and the limiting block 332 can limit the rotation stroke of the flipping frame 33.
