[0080] The robot arm 310 is disposed on the working platform 300, and is located between the two material-forming mechanisms 500. The robot arm 310 is connected to the material-retrieving mechanism 400. The material-retrieving mechanism 400 is used to clamp the sheet-shaped stacked materials 600 on the feeding mechanism 100 and the sheet-shaped stacked materials 600 on the material-forming mechanism 500. The robot arm 310 has multiple degrees of freedom, and drives the material-retrieving mechanism 400 to move to different positions.

The transfer and conveying mechanism 150 and the blocking mechanism 160 are arranged in sequence along the conveying direction of the feeding conveyor line 140. The blocking mechanism 160 is connected to the frame of the feeding conveyor line 140. The blocking mechanism 160 is located between the two conveyor belts of the feeding conveyor line 140. The transfer and conveying mechanism 150 and the blocking mechanism 160 can be raised and lowered, so as not to affect the feeding conveyor line 140 in conveying materials to the next station. The return conveyor line 170 is located below the feeding conveyor line 140.
[0109] In this embodiment, two synchronous conveyor belts are arranged on the frame of the feeding conveyor line 140 at intervals. A plurality of feeding boxes containing the sheet-shaped stacked materials 600 to be sorted are transported through the feeding conveyor line 140 and transported to the raised blocking mechanism 160 to be blocked. At this time, the feeding box is located above the transfer and conveying mechanism 150, and the transfer and conveying mechanism 150 is raised to the same height as the feeding conveying platform 130. Then the transfer and conveying platform 152 of the transfer and conveying mechanism 150 transports the feeding box to the feeding conveying platform 130. After that, the mechanical arm 310 and the material taking mechanism 400 take the material from the feeding box, and the feeding lifting cylinder 120 contracts to lower the feeding conveying platform 130 to the position of the return conveyor line 170. The feeding conveyor platform 130 transports the empty feeding box to the return conveyor line 170. In this embodiment, the entire process from feeding, sorting, and unloading is automatically completed, which greatly improves the work efficiency, ensures the quality of the materials, and meets the automated production requirements.
[0110] Furthermore, if Figure 4 As shown, the transfer and conveying mechanism 150 includes: a first fixed frame 151, a transfer and lifting cylinder and a transfer and conveying platform 152;
[0111] The first fixed frame 151 is connected to the frame of the loading conveyor line 140. The first fixed frame 151 is located between the two conveyor belts of the loading conveyor line 140 and on one side of the loading frame 110. The transfer lifting cylinder is vertically arranged on the first fixed frame 151, and the telescopic end of the transfer lifting cylinder is fixedly connected to the transfer conveying platform 152. The transfer conveying platform 152 is located on one side of the end of the loading conveying platform 130, and is arranged in sequence with the loading conveying platform 130 in the same conveying direction. The loading box containing materials is blocked by the blocking mechanism 160 and is located above the transfer and conveying platform 152. The transfer and conveying lifting cylinder extends to lift the transfer and conveying platform 152 to the same height as the loading and conveying platform 130. The conveyor belts of the transfer and conveying platform 152 and the loading and conveying platform 130 work to transport the loading box to the loading and conveying platform 130. After the transportation is completed, the transfer and conveying lifting cylinder contracts and drives the transfer and conveying platform 152 to descend to the bottom of the conveyor belt of the loading conveyor line 140, preparing for the next transfer.
[0112] The blocking mechanism 160 includes: a second fixing frame 161, a blocking block 162 and a blocking lifting cylinder;
[0113] The second fixed frame 161 is connected to the frame of the feeding conveyor line 140, and the second fixed frame 161 is located between the two conveyor belts of the feeding conveyor line 140; the blocking lifting cylinder is vertically arranged on the second fixed frame 161, and the telescopic end of the blocking lifting cylinder is fixedly connected to the stopper 162. The blocking lifting cylinder extends to lift the stopper 162 to block the feeding box, so that the feeding box stays on the transfer and conveying platform 152. The blocking cylinder retracts the stopper 162 and the transfer and conveying platform 152 descends, and other feeding boxes continue to be transported on the feeding conveyor line 140 to the next station where the automatic sorting equipment is placed.
[0114] The working process of the present invention is:
[0115] A plurality of automatic sorting devices are sequentially arranged on the conveying line along the conveying direction. The loading conveying line 140 conveys a plurality of loading boxes containing the sheet-like stacked materials 600 to be sorted. A loading box is transported to the raised stopper 162 and is blocked. At this time, the loading box is located above the transfer and conveying platform 152. The transfer and lifting cylinder raises the transfer and conveying platform 152 to the same height as the loading and conveying platform 130. Then, the transfer and conveying platform 152 transports the loading box to the loading and conveying platform 130. After that, the robot arm 310 and the material taking mechanism 400 take the material from the loading box. The loading and lifting cylinder 120 lowers the loading and conveying platform 130 to the position of the return conveying line 170. The loading and conveying platform 130 transports the empty loading box to the return conveying line 170. The loading and lifting cylinder 120 then raises the loading and conveying platform 130 to the height of the loading conveying line 140. Among them, after the loading box is transported to the loading conveying platform 130, the stopper 162 and the transfer conveying platform 152 are lowered, and other loading boxes continue to be transported on the loading conveying line 140 to the next station where the automatic sorting equipment is placed.
[0116] The sheet-like stacked material 600 taken away by the material taking mechanism 400 is moved by the robot arm 310 to the supporting plate 533 of one of the sorting mechanisms 500, and the clamping cylinder 555 extends to make the clamping part 556 move in the direction of the material, and the clamping part 556 is engaged with the material, and the material taking mechanism 400 releases the material (then the robot arm 310 drives the material taking mechanism 400 to take the material and place it on the supporting plate 533 of another sorting mechanism), and the vibration motor 520 can make the connecting plate 531, the connecting frame 532 and the supporting plate 533 vibrate, thereby The stacked sheet material 600 on the supporting plate 533 is vibrated, and the servo motor 541 drives the swing shaft 542 to rotate to swing the two swing clamping components, so that the upper side of the stacked sheet material 600 is swung close to or away from the robot arm 310, and the wind knife mechanism 320 blows air toward the vibrating and swinging stacked sheet material 600 to disperse the material as much as possible. The swing mechanism 540 can make the dispersed material move up and down faster under the action of vibration, so that the stacked sheet material 600 can quickly reach a neat state. As shown in the figure, after the left and right sides are sorted, the material picking mechanism 400 clamps the material from the upper and lower sides of the material, the clamping cylinder 555 retracts to allow the clamping part 556 to leave the material, and the robotic arm 310 drives the material picking mechanism 400 to move away from the supporting plate 533 and rotate 90 degrees to place the material on the supporting plate 533 again for sorting. After the sorting is completed, the material picking mechanism 400 clamps the material, the clamping cylinder 555 retracts to allow the clamping part 556 to leave the material, and the robotic arm 310 drives the material picking mechanism 400 to move to take the material away and move it to the position of the unloading conveyor line 200. The material picking mechanism 400 releases the material, and the sorted material is conveyed to the subsequent process.
