Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of loading equipment technology, specifically to an extrusion loading machine, a loading system, and a loading method. Background Technology

[0002] Cargo loading machines are one type of logistics and transportation equipment, primarily suitable for the transfer and loading / unloading of goods, significantly reducing the distance that manual material handling must cover. Loading machines can extend and retract freely in length, allowing for real-time control of the conveyor length, and the chain conveyor system efficiently transports and unloads materials. Therefore, cargo loading machines are widely used in logistics centers, enterprise warehouses, post offices, express delivery companies, airports, and in the fertilizer, flour, food, beverage, and tire industries for loading and unloading goods.

[0003] However, the loading technology of existing loading machines requires that the planar dimensions of the goods cannot exceed the planar dimensions of the cargo box. In other words, there are certain gaps between the goods themselves and between the goods and the side walls of the cargo box during the loading process, which affects the loading efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0004] Therefore, the technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to overcome the problem that the loading efficiency is affected by the fact that the planar dimensions of the goods cannot exceed the planar dimensions of the cargo box in the prior art loading machine, thereby providing a compression loading machine, loading system and loading method.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention provides an extrusion loading machine, comprising: a gantry frame body, wherein a traveling mechanism is provided at the bottom of the gantry frame body; an extrusion frame, disposed on the gantry frame body; a driving structure, disposed on the extrusion frame, wherein the driving structure drives the extrusion frame to reciprocate in the extension direction of the gantry frame body; and a lifting structure, disposed at the bottom of the extrusion frame body, wherein a push-pull device is provided at the bottom of the lifting structure body, wherein the lifting structure moves up and down relative to the extrusion frame body.

[0006] Furthermore, the drive structure includes: a hydraulic drive component disposed on the extrusion frame, with one end of the hydraulic drive component connected to the gantry frame body and the other end connected to one end of the extrusion frame; and a pin sensor disposed at the connection between the hydraulic drive component and the extrusion frame.

[0007] Furthermore, the drive structure also includes movable wheels, which are located at both ends of the extrusion frame.

[0008] Furthermore, the extrusion frame includes: a traveling frame, which is mounted on the gantry frame, and the hydraulic drive component is mounted on the traveling frame; a fixed frame, which is vertically mounted on the traveling frame, and the lifting structure is mounted on the fixed frame.

[0009] Furthermore, the two ends of the walking frame are provided with limiting blocks.

[0010] Furthermore, the lifting structure includes: a movable arm sleeved on the fixed frame at the end away from the traveling frame, and a pusher / puller disposed on the movable arm; and a lifting drive component disposed on the fixed frame and the movable arm, wherein the lifting drive component drives the movable arm to move up and down relative to the fixed frame.

[0011] Furthermore, the lifting structure also includes: a support frame, disposed on the fixed frame; and a cable chain, one end of which is disposed on the support frame and the other end of which is disposed on the movable arm, the cable chain being used to accommodate the connecting wire.

[0012] Furthermore, it also includes a pitch device, which is located at the end of the movable arm away from the fixed frame, and the pusher / puller is located on the pitch device.

[0013] The present invention also provides an extrusion loading system, including the aforementioned extrusion loading machine.

[0014] The present invention also provides a loading method for a compression loading system, comprising: a drive structure driving a compression frame to move on a gantry frame; after moving to the position, a lifting structure driving a pusher to descend to the position of the goods; the drive structure continuing to drive the compression frame to move; the compression frame achieving mutual compression between goods; the pusher placing the goods on the pusher; the drive structure driving the compression frame to move to the truck position; the pusher lowering the goods; and the drive structure driving the compression frame to return to the initial position.

[0015] The technical solution of this invention has the following advantages:

[0016] 1. The extrusion loading machine provided by the present invention includes: a gantry frame body, wherein a traveling mechanism is provided at the bottom of the gantry frame body; an extrusion frame, disposed on the gantry frame body; a driving structure, disposed on the extrusion frame, wherein the driving structure drives the extrusion frame to reciprocate in the extension direction of the gantry frame body; and a lifting structure, disposed at the bottom of the extrusion frame body, wherein a push-pull device is provided at the bottom of the lifting structure body, wherein the lifting structure moves up and down relative to the extrusion frame body.

[0017] By incorporating a traveling mechanism at the bottom of the gantry frame, the movement of the gantry frame is facilitated, increasing the portability of the compression loading system. A compression frame is installed on the gantry frame, and a drive structure is mounted on the compression frame. This drive structure propels the compression frame along the extension direction of the gantry frame, moving it to a suitable position to compress the goods. Simultaneously, the compression frame is equipped with a lifting structure and a push-pull mechanism. The lifting structure allows adjustment of the push-pull mechanism's position, making it suitable for goods of different heights and facilitating loading.

[0018] This extrusion-type loading machine has a relatively simple structure and effectively ensures loading efficiency. It achieves mutual compression between goods, and with the cooperation of the mechanical structure and control system, it completes a reasonable compression amount, allowing goods exceeding the pallet size to be loaded within the tolerance range of goods compression deformation. This extrusion-type loading machine is suitable for goods of different heights and sizes. It can also use the extrusion frame to compress the goods, making the planar dimensions of the goods equal to or smaller than the dimensions of the cargo box, reducing the gap between the goods and the side walls of the truck bed, thereby increasing loading efficiency, achieving rapid loading, and reducing loading time.

[0019] This extrusion-type loading machine is ideal for loading bottled mineral water and beverages. These products are highly diverse, often exceeding the pallet size, and possess a degree of elasticity, allowing for compression. Therefore, this extrusion-type loading machine was developed to maximize loading space. It can also be applied to loading other elastic items such as clothing, sponge products, and rock wool boards.

[0020] 2. The extrusion loading machine provided by the present invention further includes movable wheels in its drive structure, which are located at both ends of the extrusion frame. The movable wheels increase the portability of the extrusion frame and reduce the frictional resistance of the extrusion frame as it moves along the gantry frame.

[0021] 3. The extrusion loading machine provided by the present invention has limit blocks at both ends of the traveling frame. The limit blocks are mechanical limiters of the traveling frame, preventing accidents and providing safety protection.

[0022] 4. The extrusion loading machine provided by the present invention further includes a lifting structure comprising: a support frame disposed on the fixed frame; and a cable chain, one end of which is disposed on the support frame and the other end of which is disposed on the movable arm, the cable chain being used to accommodate a connecting wire. By disposing of the support frame on the fixed frame, i.e., fixing one end of the cable chain using the support frame, while the other end of the cable chain is fixed to the movable arm, when the lifting drive component drives the movable arm to move up and down relative to the fixed frame, the cable chain can effectively protect the connecting wire of the lifting drive component, preventing the connecting wire from causing movement of the fixed frame and the lifting arm, thus avoiding damage.

[0023] 5. The extrusion loading machine provided by the present invention further includes a pitching device, which is located at the end of the movable arm away from the fixed frame, and the pusher / puller is located on the pitching device. This pitching device enables the pusher / puller to perform pitching motion, allowing the pusher / puller to adjust the tilt angle of the goods, adjusting the angle during goods handling to keep the goods horizontal.

[0035] The preferred embodiments of this disclosure are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are for illustration and explanation only and are not intended to limit this disclosure.

[0036] Please see Figures 1 to 2 As shown, the present invention provides an extrusion loading machine, comprising: a gantry frame 1, wherein a traveling mechanism 2 is provided at the bottom of the gantry frame 1; an extrusion frame 3, disposed on the gantry frame 1; a driving structure 4, disposed on the extrusion frame 3, wherein the driving structure 4 drives the extrusion frame 3 to reciprocate in the extending direction of the gantry frame 1; and a lifting structure 5, disposed at the bottom of the extrusion frame 3, wherein a pusher 6 is provided at the bottom of the lifting structure 5, wherein the lifting structure 5 moves up and down relative to the extrusion frame 3.

[0037] By installing a traveling mechanism 2 at the bottom of the gantry frame 1, the movement of the gantry frame 1 is facilitated, increasing the portability of the extrusion loading mechanism. An extrusion frame 3 is installed on the gantry frame 1, and a drive structure 4 is installed on the extrusion frame 3. This drive structure 4 drives the extrusion frame 3 to move in the extending direction of the gantry frame 1, moving it to a suitable position to extrude the goods. Simultaneously, a lifting structure 5 and a pusher / puller 6 are also provided on the extrusion frame 3. The lifting structure 5 allows adjustment of the position of the pusher / puller 6, making it suitable for goods of different heights and facilitating loading.

[0038] This extrusion-type loading machine has a relatively simple structure and effectively ensures loading efficiency. It achieves mutual compression between goods, and with the cooperation of the mechanical structure and control system, it completes a reasonable compression amount, allowing goods exceeding the pallet size to be loaded within the tolerance range of goods deformation. This extrusion-type loading machine is suitable for goods of different heights and sizes. Furthermore, the extrusion frame 3 can be used to compress the goods, making the planar dimensions of the goods equal to or smaller than the dimensions of the cargo box, reducing the gap between the goods and the side walls of the truck bed, thereby increasing loading efficiency, achieving rapid loading, and reducing loading time.

[0039] This extrusion-type loading machine is ideal for loading bottled mineral water and beverages. These products are highly diverse, often exceeding the pallet size, and possess a degree of elasticity, allowing for compression. Therefore, this extrusion-type loading machine was developed to maximize loading space. It can also be applied to loading other elastic items such as clothing, sponge products, and rock wool boards.

[0040] In some optional embodiments, the drive structure 4 includes a hydraulic drive component 7 and a pin sensor 8; wherein the hydraulic drive component 7 is disposed on the extrusion frame 3, and one end of the hydraulic drive component 7 is connected to the gantry frame 1, and the other end is connected to one end of the extrusion frame 3; the pin sensor 8 is disposed at the connection between the hydraulic drive component 7 and the extrusion frame 3.

[0041] In some optional embodiments, the drive structure 4 further includes movable wheels 9, which are located at both ends of the extrusion frame 3. The movable wheels 9 increase the portability of the extrusion frame 3 and reduce the frictional resistance of the extrusion frame 3 as it moves on the gantry frame 1.

[0042] In some optional embodiments, the extrusion frame 3 includes a traveling frame 10 and a fixed frame 11; wherein the traveling frame 10 is disposed on the gantry frame 1, and the hydraulic drive component 7 is disposed on the traveling frame 10; the fixed frame 11 is vertically disposed on the traveling frame 10, and the lifting structure 5 is disposed on the fixed frame 11.

[0043] The traveling frame 10 is mounted on the gantry frame 1, and the movable wheels 9 are mounted inside the traveling frame 10, thus providing an installation position for the movable wheels 9. Simultaneously, the hydraulic drive unit 7 is mounted on the traveling frame 10, allowing the traveling frame 10 and the movable wheels 9 to move using the hydraulic drive unit 7.

[0044] At the same time, the extension and retraction of the hydraulic drive component 7 completes the movement of the walking frame 10. When the walking frame 10 is loaded with goods, the pin sensor 8 can measure the magnitude of the extrusion force to determine whether the extrusion is in place, thereby controlling the extension and retraction of the hydraulic drive component 7.

[0045] In some optional embodiments, the two ends of the traveling frame 10 are provided with limiting blocks 12. The limiting blocks 12 are mechanical limiters of the traveling frame 10, which can play a safety protection role in preventing accidents.

[0046] In some optional embodiments, the lifting structure 5 includes a movable arm 13 and a lifting drive 14; wherein the movable arm 13 is sleeved on the end of the fixed frame 11 away from the traveling frame 10, and the pusher 6 is disposed on the movable arm 13; the lifting drive 14 is disposed on the fixed frame 11 and the movable arm 13, and the lifting drive 14 drives the movable arm 13 to move up and down relative to the fixed frame 11.

[0047] By mounting the movable arm 13 on the bottom of the fixed frame 11 and setting the pusher 6 on the movable arm 13, the fixed frame 11 and the movable arm 13 cooperate, and the lifting drive 14 drives the movable arm to move up and down relative to the fixed frame. The movable arm is loaded on the pusher 6, thereby completing the vertical movement of the goods.

[0048] In some optional embodiments, the lifting structure 5 further includes a support frame 15 and a drag chain 16; wherein the support frame 15 is disposed on the fixed frame 11; one end of the drag chain 16 is disposed on the support frame 15 and the other end is disposed on the movable arm 13, and the drag chain 16 is used to accommodate the connecting wire.

[0049] By setting the support frame 15 on the fixed frame 11, one end of the drag chain 16 is fixed using the support frame 15, while the other end of the drag chain 16 is fixed to the movable arm 13. When the lifting drive component 14 drives the movable arm 13 to move up and down relative to the fixed frame 11, the drag chain 16 can effectively protect the connecting line of the lifting drive component 14, preventing the connecting line from causing the fixed frame 11 and the lifting arm to move and be damaged.

[0050] In this embodiment, both the hydraulic drive component 7 and the lifting drive component 14 are hydraulic cylinders.

[0051] In some alternative embodiments, the extrusion loading machine further includes a pitch device 17 located at the end of the movable arm 13 away from the fixed frame 11, and the pusher 6 is located on the pitch device 17.

[0052] The pitch device 17 can realize the pitch movement of the pusher 6, so that the pusher 6 can adjust the tilt angle of the goods and keep the goods horizontal during the handling process.

[0053] The present invention also provides an extrusion loading system, including the aforementioned extrusion loading machine.

[0054] The present invention also provides a loading method for a compression loading system: the drive structure 4 drives the compression frame 3 to move on the gantry frame 1. After moving into position, the lifting structure 5 drives the pusher 6 to descend to the location of the goods. The drive structure 4 continues to drive the compression frame 3 to move, and the compression frame 3 achieves mutual compression between the goods. Then, the pusher 6 is used to place the goods on the pusher 6. The drive structure 4 drives the compression frame 3 to move to the truck position. The pusher 6 puts down the goods. The drive structure 4 drives the compression frame 3 to return to the initial position.

[0055] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely illustrative examples for clear explanation and are not intended to limit the implementation. Those skilled in the art will recognize that other variations or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations here. However, obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom are still within the scope of protection of this invention.
