Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of packaging technology, and in particular to a glove packaging system and method that allows for bending of the glove thumb. Background Technology

[0002] After the gloves are manufactured on the production line, they need to be manually demolded, the thumbs folded, and stacked into pairs until the required number of pairs are ready for bagging. Because gloves are consumable protective equipment with high demand, glove manufacturers have a large need for glove packaging personnel. At the same time, the high labor intensity of manual operation leads to frequent staff turnover and low work efficiency. Furthermore, manual stacking and packaging of gloves is prone to quantity errors and inconsistent packaging quality.

[0003] Existing technologies include packaging machines capable of automatically packaging gloves, but they cannot fold the thumb inward before packaging. Furthermore, these existing packaging machines can only interface with a limited range of production lines, such as continuous PU production lines; they cannot meet the glove packaging needs of most production lines, such as those with non-continuous motion and pauses between two hand molds per motion cycle. Therefore, existing technologies cannot automatically fold the thumb and automatically package gloves. In conclusion, developing a foldable thumb glove packaging system that can interface with multiple production lines is a pressing issue that needs to be addressed. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This invention provides a glove packaging system and method with a bendable thumb, addressing the problems of low efficiency and high error in existing technologies, such as manual demolding, manual glove stacking, manual thumb folding, and stacking. To provide a basic understanding of some aspects of the disclosed embodiments, a brief summary is given below. This summary is not intended as a general commentary, nor is it intended to identify key / important components or describe the scope of protection of these embodiments. Its sole purpose is to present some concepts in a simple form as an introduction to the detailed description that follows.

[0005] The terms “longitudinal,” “lateral,” “up,” “down,” “front,” “rear,” “left,” “right,” “vertical,” “horizontal,” “top,” “bottom,” “inner,” and “outer” used in this document to indicate orientation or positional relationships are based on the orientation or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings and are used only for the convenience of describing this document and simplifying the description. They are not intended to indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of the present invention. For example, the terms “front,” “rear,” “front end,” and “rear end” mentioned in this document can also refer to relative installation positions, that is, relative to the material storage device, the demolding device is installed at the front end of the frame, and relative to the demolding device, the material storage device is installed at the rear end of the frame.

[0006] In this article, the description of the driving device involves many driving devices, such as the first driving device, the second driving device, the third driving device, etc. The description of the driving device is intended to indicate that the device can provide power to drive some components, structures or devices to produce the described motion effect, and does not limit the specific form of the driving device. For example, in some optional embodiments, the first driving device can be in the form of a motor, electric motor, electric cylinder, air cylinder, pneumatic motor, hydraulic cylinder, electro-hydraulic servo, etc., or it can be a combination of two or more of the following: motor, electric motor, electric cylinder, air cylinder, pneumatic motor, hydraulic cylinder, electro-hydraulic servo. The same applies to the other driving devices.

[0007] According to a first aspect of the present invention, a glove packaging system that allows bending of the glove thumb is provided.

[0008] In some optional embodiments, the foldable thumb glove packaging system includes: a frame, a demolding device, a pallet device, a thumb-folding gripping device, and a storage device. The demolding device demolds the gloves from the external hand mold and transfers the demolded gloves to the pallet device. The thumb-folding gripping device bends the thumb of the glove and picks it up, then transfers the glove to the storage device. Optionally, when there are two storage mechanisms in the storage device, for ease of distinction, the two storage mechanisms are named Storage Mechanism A and Storage Mechanism B, respectively. Storage Mechanism A and Storage Mechanism B alternately receive gloves and convey them backward. Optionally, after a preset number of gloves are collected in one of the storage mechanisms, the gripping device in the storage device transfers the gloves to the other storage mechanism.

[0009] The demolding device includes one or more demolding mechanisms. Each demolding mechanism includes a first horizontal arm, one or more demolding clamping mechanisms, a first driving device, and a second driving device. The first horizontal arm is mounted on the frame, and the demolding clamping mechanism is mounted on the first horizontal arm. The demolding clamping mechanism includes an upper opening and closing module and a lower opening and closing module. The first driving device drives the upper opening and closing module and the lower opening and closing module to cooperate in completing the clamping or releasing action. The second driving device drives the first horizontal arm to move back and forth horizontally. Optionally, depending on the actual situation of the production line, when the movement mode of the hand mold rod on the production line is continuous, the number of demolding mechanisms can be one or two sets. When the number of demolding mechanisms is one set, the demolding mechanism demolds the gloves on each hand mold rod separately. When the number of demolding mechanisms is two sets, the two demolding mechanisms can demold the gloves on the upper and lower hand mold rods separately. When the movement of the hand mold rods on the production line is such that the operating length of each movement cycle is twice the distance between the two hand mold rods (i.e., the two hand mold rods move forward in each movement cycle), if there is one set of demolding mechanisms, the demolding mechanism will demold the gloves on the two hand mold rods sequentially in each movement cycle; if there are two sets of demolding mechanisms, the two sets of demolding mechanisms will demold the gloves on the two hand mold rods respectively; optionally, when there are two sets of demolding mechanisms in the demolding device, there is one set of pallet mechanisms in the pallet device, and the two sets of demolding mechanisms will respectively transfer the demolded gloves to the pallet mechanism; optionally, when there are two sets of demolding mechanisms in the demolding device, there are two sets of pallet mechanisms in the pallet device, and the two sets of demolding mechanisms correspond to the two sets of pallet mechanisms respectively, and the two sets of demolding mechanisms will respectively transfer the demolded gloves to their respective corresponding pallet mechanisms.

[0012] Optionally, the demolding mechanism further includes a demolding pitch changing mechanism, which is connected to one or more demolding clamping mechanisms. Under the drive of the fourth driving device, the demolding pitch changing mechanism drives the demolding clamping mechanisms to move left and right in the horizontal direction, so that the distance between adjacent demolding clamping mechanisms can be changed.

[0013] Optionally, the demolding mechanism further includes a demolding pitch-changing mechanism, which is connected to one or more demolding clamping mechanisms. Driven by a fourth driving device, the demolding pitch-changing mechanism moves, causing other connected demolding clamping mechanisms to move horizontally left and right, thus changing the distance between adjacent demolding clamping mechanisms. Optionally, the distance between adjacent demolding clamping mechanisms is changed, with the pitch changes of the two middle mechanisms differing from the pitch changes of the other mechanisms. Optionally, the pitch change distance between adjacent demolding clamping mechanisms is adjustable.

[0014] Optionally, the demolding pitch mechanism can be composed of one or more connecting rods, which are mounted on the first cross arm. The demolding clamping mechanism is connected to the connecting rods, and the movement of the connecting rods causes the demolding clamping mechanism to move accordingly. Optionally, the demolding pitch mechanism includes a demolding curve roller with grooves on its surface. The demolding clamping mechanism is connected to the demolding curve roller through the grooves on its surface. When the demolding curve roller rotates, it drives the demolding clamping mechanism to move left and right in the horizontal direction. Optionally, the demolding pitch mechanism can be a flat plate with grooves on its surface. The demolding clamping mechanism is connected to the flat plate through the grooves. The flat plate moves in the horizontal or vertical direction, driving the demolding clamping mechanism to move.

[0015] Optionally, the demolding pitch mechanism is connected to one or more demolding clamping mechanisms. Under the drive of the fourth driving device, the demolding pitch mechanism is moved. The demolding pitch mechanism drives other demolding clamping mechanisms connected to it to move left and right in the horizontal direction, so that the distance between adjacent demolding clamping mechanisms is changed. Optionally, the demolding pitch mechanism can consist of one or more connecting rods mounted on the first cross arm. The demolding clamping mechanism is connected to the connecting rods, and the movement of the demolding clamping mechanism drives the movement of the connecting rods, which in turn causes other demolding clamping mechanisms to move accordingly. Optionally, the demolding pitch mechanism includes a demolding curve roller with grooves on its surface. The demolding clamping mechanism is connected to the demolding curve roller through the grooves on its surface. The demolding clamping mechanism moves left and right in the horizontal direction, causing the demolding curve roller to rotate. When the demolding curve roller rotates, it drives other demolding clamping mechanisms to move left and right in the horizontal direction. Optionally, the demolding pitch mechanism can be a flat plate with grooves on its surface. The demolding clamping mechanism is connected to the flat plate through the grooves on its surface. The movement of the demolding pitch mechanism drives the flat plate to move in the horizontal or vertical direction, and the flat plate drives other demolding clamping mechanisms to move through the grooves on its surface.

[0016] Optionally, the demolding pitch-changing mechanism includes: a limiting block, a first limiting plate, a second limiting plate, a third limiting plate, and limiting rods; wherein, the limiting block is arranged in the middle of multiple demolding clamping mechanisms to serve as a limiting element, and the first, second, and third limiting plates are located below the demolding clamping mechanisms; the first limiting plate is located near the limiting block in the middle part of the demolding clamping mechanism, and the second and third limiting plates are arranged at intervals. The limiting rod is fixedly connected to the third limiting plate and can slide relative to the second limiting plate within a certain range; the limiting rods on both sides of the limiting block are fixedly connected to the limiting block and are opposite to it, and the first limiting plate can slide within a certain range; when the fourth driving device drives the demolding clamping mechanisms at both ends to move left and right, it drives the other demolding clamping mechanisms to move, and the pitch-changing is completed after each demolding clamping mechanism has moved to its limit.

[0017] Optionally, the demolding mechanism may further include one or more fifth driving devices, each of which drives a demolding clamping mechanism to move left and right in the horizontal direction; for example, when the fifth drive is a motor, each motor drives a set of demolding clamping mechanisms to move left and right in the horizontal direction. In this case, each demolding clamping mechanism can move independently, and the distance between each adjacent demolding clamping mechanism can be adjusted at will, making this method more flexible.

[0018] The thumb clamping device includes one or more clamping devices, each clamping device including one or more gripping mechanisms, a second horizontal arm, and a sixth driving device; the gripping mechanism is installed on the second horizontal arm, and one gripping mechanism includes one or more grippers, which are driven by the sixth driving device to either swing, move horizontally, move along an arc, or move along a vertical fold line.

[0022] Optionally, the gripping device further includes a ninth driving device, which drives the second horizontal arm to rotate horizontally. In actual production, most production lines have hand mold rods symmetrical about the center, with left-hand hand molds on one side and right-hand hand molds on the other. The horizontal rotation of the second horizontal arm achieves the overlapping of left and right hands, meaning that the gloves conveyed to the same storage mechanism are in the order of one left-hand and one right-hand, then one left-hand and one right-hand, and so on. Optionally, when the ninth driving device is present, it is also possible to choose not to rotate. An optional embodiment of the horizontal rotation of the second horizontal arm is as follows: when the hand molds on the production line are arranged with left-hand and right-hand hand molds on the left and right sides respectively, the gloves gripped by the gripping mechanism on the second horizontal arm are also arranged with left and right hands on the left and right sides respectively. The second horizontal arm rotates 180 degrees, driving the gripping mechanism above it to rotate 180 degrees, and the gripped gloves are swapped left and right, and the finger direction is also opposite to when not rotating. When the gripping device rotates once every time, the glove packaging method is achieved by alternating stacking of left and right hands, and the finger directions of the left and right hands are opposite.

[0023] Optionally, the gripping device further includes a thirty-ninth driving device, which drives one or more gripping mechanisms to rotate horizontally; an optional embodiment of the horizontal rotation of the gripping mechanism is: when the gloves in the external production line are arranged alternately in rows of left-hand and right-hand gloves, the gripping mechanism also rotates alternately when gripping each corresponding glove, so that the glove packaging method is to stack the left and right hands alternately, and the fingers of the left and right hands are opposite in direction.

[0024] Optionally, the gripper can be plate-shaped, with the plate-shaped gripper rotating to push the thumb, thereby folding the thumb and holding the glove; alternatively, the gripper can be a plate-shaped object with a certain bend or curvature, with the plate-shaped gripper rotating to push the thumb, thereby folding the thumb and holding the glove; alternatively, the gripper can be a rod with one or more bends, with the rod-shaped gripper rotating and the rod pushing the thumb, thereby folding the thumb and holding the glove; alternatively, the surface of the gripper is coated with Teflon; alternatively, the gripper can be a pneumatic flexible claw, which deforms under different air pressures, thereby folding the thumb and holding the glove; alternatively, the gripper can be a mechanical flexible claw or other form of flexible claw, which deforms under the drive of the sixth driving device, thereby folding the thumb and holding the glove.

[0025] Optionally, the gripper mechanism further includes a gripper fixing base, a gripper connecting rod, a gripper gear, and a gripper rack; a sixth driving device, a gripper gear, and a gripper connecting rod are disposed on the gripper fixing base, the sixth driving device is connected to the gripper gear, and the gripper connecting rod is connected to the gripper gear and the gripper; the sixth driving device drives the gripper gear to rotate, thereby driving the gripper connected thereto to complete the clamping or releasing action.

[0026] Optionally, in the gripping mechanism, when a set of gripping mechanisms includes one gripper, the gripper is positioned on the same side as the thumb of the glove being gripped; when a set of gripping mechanisms includes two grippers, the two grippers are positioned opposite each other on the left and right sides of the gripping mechanism; when a set of gripping mechanisms includes three or more grippers, at least one gripper is positioned on the same side as the thumb of the glove being gripped. The shapes and sizes of the different grippers in the gripping mechanism can be the same or different. In some optional embodiments, a set of gripping mechanisms has two grippers, one relatively large and one relatively small. Generally, during installation, the larger gripper is considered to be installed on the thumb side. Optionally, when the gripper is a soft claw, when a set of gripping mechanisms includes two grippers, the gripper on the thumb side is a larger soft claw, and the gripper on the other side is a smaller soft claw.

[0027] Optionally, the gripping device further includes an eleventh driving device, which drives one or more gripping mechanisms to move left and right in the horizontal direction. Optionally, the eleventh driving device driving one or more gripping mechanisms to move in the horizontal direction will produce the effect of one or more grippers expanding or contracting to both sides in the horizontal direction with multiple gripping center points as centers; and the distance between two adjacent grippers will change. Optionally, the eleventh driving device driving one or more gripping mechanisms to move in the horizontal direction will produce the effect of one or more grippers expanding or contracting to both sides in the horizontal direction with multiple gripping center points as centers; and the distance between two adjacent grippers will change, and the change value of the distance between the two middle grippers is different from the change value of the distance between the other two adjacent grippers. Optionally, the eleventh driving device driving one or more gripping mechanisms to move in the horizontal direction will produce the effect of one or more grippers expanding or contracting to both sides in the horizontal direction with multiple gripping center points as centers; and the change value of the distance between two adjacent grippers is adjustable.

[0028] Optionally, the clamping device further includes a shaping pressure plate mechanism; the shaping pressure plate mechanism includes one or more shaping pressure plates; the shaping pressure plates are disposed near the clamping mechanism.

[0029] Optionally, the clamping device further includes a tenth driving device, which drives the shaping pressure plate to move up and down in the vertical direction.

The shaping plate moves vertically up and down to hold the gloves; optionally, the shaping plate is strip-shaped and moves vertically up and down to hold the gloves; the shaping plate can shape the gloves placed in the storage device to deal with the phenomenon of different loft heights during the stacking of different types of gloves; when the gripper mechanism descends to the set height, the shaping plate descends to hold the gloves. If there are gloves that have been placed below the gripper mechanism, the shaping plate can achieve the holding effect, so that there is space between the gripper and the gloves below to allow the gripper to open. In addition, the holding effect of the shaping plate can make multiple pairs of gloves fit more tightly, reduce loft, and make the gloves stack more neatly.

[0032] Optionally, the stroke of the shaping platen during its vertical lifting motion is adjustable. The adjustable stroke of the shaping platen can take two forms: one is that the mechanical connection of the shaping platen is adjustable, i.e., the relative height between the shaping platen and the gripper is adjusted by adjusting the mechanical structure; the other is that when the shaping platen moves vertically under the drive of the tenth drive device, the tenth drive device can control the stroke of each lifting motion of the shaping platen. Adjusting the stroke of the shaping platen allows it to adjust the pressing height each time, taking into account gloves of different thicknesses or lofts, during the glove shaping process. This makes the pressing effect of the shaping platen more pronounced, allowing multiple gloves to fit more snugly, reducing loft, and resulting in more orderly glove stacking.

The pallet is mounted on the third horizontal arm, and the number of pallets is one or more.

The movement can be two or more pallet tongues divided into two groups, with the two groups moving in the same direction, or the two groups moving towards each other or in opposite directions. Optionally, the pallet tongue is located below the pallet; optionally, the pallet tongue is located below the pallet and close to the pallet; optionally, the pallet tongue is located below the pallet and has a certain gap with the pallet; optionally, the surface of the pallet tongue is coated with Teflon; optionally, the front of the pallet tongue is provided with an angle, which can guide the gloves during demolding, making the gloves less prone to deformation during demolding; optionally, when the number of pallet tongues is one or more, the pallet tongues are symmetrically arranged.

The up and down movement of the pallet device can better support the demolded glove, ensuring a better fit between the glove and the pallet during demolding. This movement also prevents the glove from deforming during thumb folding or clamping. When there are two demolding mechanisms with different demolding heights, the up and down movement of the pallet device can adapt the pallet's vertical movement to the heights of the two demolding mechanisms.

[0038] Optionally, the tray mechanism further includes a thirty-third driving device, which drives the tray to move back and forth in the horizontal direction. This back-and-forth movement of the tray in the horizontal direction allows it to separate from the glove after the thumb-folding gripper completes its thumb-folding action.

[0079] Optionally, the process of the gripper mechanism folding the glove's thumb and holding the glove in step (a2-20) includes the following steps: in step (a2-a1), the gripper mechanism descends vertically, and the pre-opened gripper folds the glove's thumb shape downwards during the descent; in step (a2-a2), the pallet tongue in the pallet device extends; in step (a2-a3), the gripper pushes the glove's thumb, causing the glove's thumb to bend towards the palm; in step (a2-a4), the pallet tongue in the pallet device retracts; in step (a2-a5), the gripper pushes the glove's thumb towards the palm again, causing the glove's thumb to bend towards the palm again, while the gripper holds the glove.

The thumb-clamping device then descends, causing the distance between the glove and the top plate of the container or the previous glove to reach a set height. This set height is not a unique height, as different gloves have different thicknesses and lofts, so the set height varies depending on the characteristics of the gloves. In addition, as the number of gloves conveyed into the storage container increases, the distance between the corresponding glove and the top plate of the container or the previous glove also increases accordingly.

[0097] Step (a3-b1): After the number of gloves in storage mechanism B reaches the preset number, it moves to the vicinity of the worker. After the worker takes the gloves out of storage mechanism B, storage mechanism B moves to the waiting position for receiving the gloves. During this process, storage mechanism A receives the gloves.

[0098] Steps (a3-b2): When the number of gloves in storage mechanism A reaches the preset number, storage mechanism A moves backward in the horizontal direction to convey the gloves backward, and storage mechanism B continues to receive the gloves.

[0099] Steps (a3-b3): After the gloves are removed from the storage mechanism A by on-site personnel, the storage mechanism A moves to the waiting position for receiving materials.

[0100] Steps (a3-b4): When the number of gloves in storage mechanism B reaches the preset number, storage mechanism B moves backward in the horizontal direction to convey the gloves backward. At this time, storage mechanism A continues to receive gloves.

[0101] Steps (a3-b5) are repeated from steps (a3-b1) to (a3-b4).

[0102] Optionally, in steps (a3-b4), when the number of gloves in storage mechanism B reaches a preset quantity, storage mechanism B moves backward in the horizontal direction to convey the gloves backward, while storage mechanism A continues to receive gloves; the process of storage mechanism B moving backward in the horizontal direction in this step also includes the following steps:

[0109] This invention can interface with glove production lines to automatically demold, pick up, fold the thumb, and stack gloves according to a preset pattern, solving the problems of existing technologies that cannot automatically fold the thumb and package gloves. It can directly interface with the production line for packaging, eliminating the need for post-mold handling and saving labor costs. This invention can not only package gloves after thumb folding but also adapt to different types of gloves and production lines. It saves labor costs, and produces neatly arranged gloves with attractive packaging.

[0171] Figure 1a This illustration shows an alternative embodiment of a glove packaging system of the present invention that allows for bending of the glove thumb.

[0172] In this optional embodiment, the glove packaging system capable of bending the glove thumb includes: a frame 100, a demolding device 200, a pallet device 400, a thumb-bending clamping device 300, and a storage device 500; wherein, the demolding device 200 demolds the glove from the external hand mold and conveys the demolded glove to the pallet device 400, the thumb-bending clamping device 300 bends the glove thumb and picks up the glove, and then conveys the glove to the storage device 500.

[0173] In this optional embodiment, the demolding device 200 has one set of demolding mechanisms 260, the pallet device 400 has one set of pallet 402 mechanisms, the thumb clamping device 300 has one set of clamping devices, and the storage device 500 has two sets of storage mechanisms 502. When the hand mold rods on the production line move continuously, the demolding mechanism 260 demolds the gloves on each hand mold rod. When the hand mold rods on the production line move in a cycle where the operating length is twice the distance between the two hand mold rods (i.e., two hand mold rods move forward in each cycle), the demolding mechanism 260 demolds the gloves on the two hand mold rods sequentially in each cycle.

[0174] In this optional embodiment, the storage device 500 has two sets of storage mechanisms 502, and the two sets of storage mechanisms 502 alternately complete the work of receiving gloves and conveying gloves backward.

[0175] Figure 1bThis illustration shows an alternative embodiment of a glove packaging system of the present invention that allows for bending of the glove thumb.

[0176] In this optional embodiment, the glove packaging system capable of bending the glove thumb includes: a frame 100, a demolding device 200, a pallet device 400, a thumb-bending clamping device 300, and a storage device 500; wherein, the demolding device 200 demolds the glove from the external hand mold and conveys the demolded glove to the pallet device 400, the thumb-bending clamping device 300 bends the glove thumb and picks up the glove, and then conveys the glove to the storage device 500.

[0177] In this optional embodiment, the demolding device 200 has one set of demolding mechanisms 260, the pallet device 400 has one set of pallet 402 mechanisms, the thumb clamping device 300 has one set of clamping devices, and the storage device 500 includes two sets of storage mechanisms 502 and one set of clamping and conveying mechanisms 501. When the hand mold rods on the production line move continuously, the demolding mechanism 260 demolds the gloves on each hand mold rod. When the hand mold rods on the production line move in a cycle with a length twice the distance between the two hand mold rods (i.e., two hand mold rods move forward in each cycle), the demolding mechanism 260 demolds the gloves on both hand mold rods sequentially in each cycle. The thumb-bending gripping device 300 bends the thumb of the glove and picks it up. After picking it up, the glove is conveyed to the first set of storage mechanisms 502 in the storage device 500. Once the number of gloves in the first set of storage mechanisms 502 reaches the preset quantity, the clamping and conveying mechanism 501 conveys the gloves to the second set of storage mechanisms 502. The second set of storage mechanisms 502 then conveys the gloves backward to the vicinity of the worker.

[0178] Figure 1c This illustration shows an alternative embodiment of a glove packaging system of the present invention that allows for bending of the glove thumb.

[0179] In this optional embodiment, the glove packaging system capable of bending the glove thumb includes: a frame 100, a demolding device 200, a pallet device 400, a thumb-bending clamping device 300, and a storage device 500; wherein, the demolding device 200 demolds the glove from the external hand mold and conveys the demolded glove to the pallet device 400, the thumb-bending clamping device 300 bends the glove thumb and picks up the glove, and then conveys the glove to the storage device 500.

[0180] In this optional embodiment, the demolding device 200 has two sets of demolding mechanisms 260, the pallet device 400 has one set of pallet 402 mechanisms, the thumb clamping device 300 has one set of clamping devices, and the storage device 500 includes two sets of storage mechanisms 502 and one set of clamping and conveying mechanisms 501. When the hand mold rods on the production line move continuously, the two sets of demolding mechanisms 260 demold the gloves on each interval of the hand mold rods respectively. When the movement of the hand mold rods on the production line is twice the distance between the two hand mold rods in each movement cycle (i.e., the two hand mold rods move forward in each movement cycle), the two sets of demolding mechanisms 260 demold the gloves on the two hand mold rods respectively in each movement cycle. That is, each demolding mechanism 260 demolds once, realizing the demolding of the gloves on the two rods on the production line respectively. The thumb-folding gripping device 300 bends the thumb of the glove and picks up the glove. After picking up the glove, it is transported to the first set of storage mechanisms 502 in the storage device 500. After the number of gloves in the first set of storage mechanisms 502 reaches the preset number, the clamping and conveying mechanism 501 transports the gloves to the second set of storage mechanisms 502. The second set of storage mechanisms 502 then transports the gloves backward to the vicinity of the worker.

[0181] Figure 1d This illustration shows an alternative embodiment of a glove packaging system of the present invention that allows for bending of the glove thumb.

[0182] In this optional embodiment, the glove packaging system capable of bending the glove thumb includes: a frame 100, a demolding device 200, a pallet device 400, a thumb-bending clamping device 300, and a storage device 500; wherein, the demolding device 200 demolds the glove from the external hand mold and conveys the demolded glove to the pallet device 400, the thumb-bending clamping device 300 bends the glove thumb and picks up the glove, and then conveys the glove to the storage device 500.

[0183] In this optional embodiment, the demolding device 200 has one set of demolding mechanisms 260, the pallet device 400 has one set of pallet 402 mechanisms, the thumb clamping device 300 has one set of clamping devices, and the storage device 500 includes one set of storage mechanisms 502 and one set of clamping and conveying mechanisms 501. When the hand mold rods on the production line move continuously, the demolding mechanism 260 demolds the gloves on each hand mold rod. When the hand mold rods on the production line move in a cycle with a length twice the distance between the two hand mold rods (i.e., two hand mold rods move forward in each cycle), the demolding mechanism 260 demolds the gloves on both hand mold rods sequentially in each cycle. The thumb-bending gripping device 300 bends the thumb of the glove and picks it up. After picking it up, the glove is conveyed to the storage mechanism 502 in the storage device 500. When the number of gloves in the storage mechanism 502 reaches a preset number, the clamping and conveying mechanism 501 clamps the gloves in the storage mechanism 502 and conveys them to the vicinity of the operator by flipping and horizontal forward and backward movement.

[0184] Figure 2a , Figure 2b , Figure 2c An alternative embodiment of the demolding mechanism 260 is shown.

[0185] In this optional embodiment, the demolding mechanism 260 includes a first horizontal arm 201, one or more demolding clamping mechanisms 202, a first driving device 203, and a second driving device 204. The first horizontal arm 201 is mounted on the frame 100, and the demolding clamping mechanism 202 is mounted on the first horizontal arm 201. The demolding clamping mechanism 202 includes an upper opening and closing module 205 and a lower opening and closing module 206. The first driving device 203 drives the upper opening and closing module 205 and the lower opening and closing module 206 to cooperate in completing the clamping or releasing action. The second driving device 204 drives the first horizontal arm 201 to move back and forth in the horizontal direction. The demolding mechanism 260 also includes a third driving device 207, which drives... The first horizontal arm 201 moves vertically up and down; the demolding mechanism 260 also includes a fourth driving device 210, which drives one or more demolding clamping mechanisms 202 to move horizontally left and right; the demolding mechanism 260 also includes a demolding pitch changing mechanism 211, which is connected to one or more demolding clamping mechanisms 202. Under the drive of the fourth driving device 210, one or more demolding clamping mechanisms 202 drive the demolding pitch changing mechanism 211 to move, and the demolding pitch changing mechanism 211 drives other demolding clamping mechanisms 202 connected to it to move horizontally left and right, so that the distance between adjacent demolding clamping mechanisms 202 is changed. Optionally, the demolding clamping mechanism 211 can be composed of one or more connecting rods 212, which are mounted on the first cross arm 201. The demolding clamping mechanism 202 is connected to the connecting rods 212, and the movement of the connecting rods 212 causes the demolding clamping mechanism 202 to move accordingly. Optionally, the spacing between adjacent demolding clamping mechanisms 202 can be varied, and the varying distances of the two middle demolding clamping mechanisms 202 are different from those of the other demolding clamping mechanisms 202. Optionally, the spacing between adjacent demolding clamping mechanisms 202 can be varied, and the varying distance between every two demolding clamping mechanisms 202 can be adjusted.

[0186] In this optional embodiment, during demolding, the demolding mechanism 260 moves horizontally back and forth to approach the external hand, and the upper opening and closing module 205 and the lower opening and closing module 206 cooperate to complete the clamping action to clamp the glove on the external hand; in the clamping state, the demolding mechanism 260 moves horizontally away from the external hand, so that the external glove is separated from the external hand, realizing the demolding operation; the upper opening and closing module 205 and the lower opening and closing module 206 cooperate to complete the release action to release the clamped glove.

[0187] Optionally, during the demolding operation, the fourth drive device 210 drives one or more demolding clamping mechanisms 202 to move left and right in the horizontal direction, so that the distance between adjacent demolding clamping mechanisms 202 can be varied. When the demolding mechanism 260 is close to the external hand in the horizontal direction, the distance between the demolding mechanisms 260 is equivalent to or equal to the distance between the hand molds on the hand mold rod in the external production line. When the demolding mechanism 260 is far away from the external hand in the horizontal direction, the distance between the demolding mechanisms 260 is equivalent to or equal to the distance between the clamping mechanisms 301. Optionally, after the demolding mechanism 260 approaches the external hand-held glove horizontally, it moves upward, bringing the lower opening and closing module 206 closer to or directly into contact with the glove on the external hand-held glove. Since the external hand-held glove is stationary during demolding, the upper opening and closing module 205 and the lower opening and closing module 206, when working together to clamp the glove, can push the external hand-held glove to rotate, potentially damaging the connection between the external hand-held glove and the production line. The upward movement of the demolding mechanism 260, bringing the lower opening and closing module 206 closer to or directly into contact with the external hand-held glove, can protect the external production line. Furthermore, the upward movement of the demolding mechanism 260, bringing the lower opening and closing module 206 closer to or directly into contact with the glove on the external hand-held glove, ensures a tighter contact during clamping, contributing to a higher demolding success rate and better demolding effect.

[0188] Optionally, depending on the actual situation of the production line, when the hand mold rods on the production line move continuously, the number of demolding mechanisms 260 can be one or two sets. When there is one set of demolding mechanisms 260, the demolding mechanism 260 demolds the gloves on each hand mold rod separately; when there are two sets of demolding mechanisms 260, the two sets of demolding mechanisms 260 can demold the gloves on the upper and lower hand mold rods separately. When the movement of the hand mold rods on the production line is such that the operating length of each movement cycle is twice the distance between the two hand mold rods (i.e., the two hand mold rods move forward in each movement cycle), if there is one set of demolding mechanisms 260, the demolding mechanism 260 demolds the gloves on the two hand mold rods sequentially in each movement cycle; if there are two sets of demolding mechanisms 260, the two sets of demolding mechanisms 260 demold the gloves on the two hand mold rods separately.

[0189] Figure 2d An alternative embodiment of the demolding device 200 is shown.

[0190] In this optional embodiment, the demolding device 200 includes two demolding mechanisms 260. When the hand mold rods on the production line move continuously, the two demolding mechanisms 260 demold the gloves on each interval hand mold rod respectively. When the hand mold rods on the production line move in a cycle where the operating length is twice the distance between the two hand mold rods (i.e., two hand mold rods move forward in each cycle), the two demolding mechanisms 260 demold the gloves on the two hand mold rods respectively in each cycle. That is, each demolding mechanism 260 demolds once, realizing the separation of the gloves on the two rods on the production line. Alternatively, when there are two sets of demolding mechanisms 260 in the demolding device 200, there is one set of pallet 402 mechanisms in the pallet device 400. The two sets of demolding mechanisms 260 respectively convey the demolded gloves to the pallet 402 mechanism. Alternatively, when there are two sets of demolding mechanisms 260 in the demolding device 200, there are two sets of pallet 402 mechanisms in the pallet device 400. The two sets of demolding mechanisms 260 correspond to the two sets of pallet 402 mechanisms respectively, and the two sets of demolding mechanisms 260 respectively convey the demolded gloves to their respective corresponding pallet 402 mechanisms.

[0191] Figure 2e An alternative embodiment of the demolding mechanism 260 is shown.

[0192] In this optional embodiment, the demolding mechanism 260 includes a first horizontal arm 201, one or more demolding clamping mechanisms 202, a first driving device 203, and a second driving device 204. The first horizontal arm 201 is mounted on the frame 100, and the demolding clamping mechanism 202 is mounted on the first horizontal arm 201. The demolding clamping mechanism 202 includes an upper opening and closing module 205 and a lower opening and closing module 206. The first driving device 203 drives the upper opening and closing module 205 and the lower opening and closing module 206 to cooperate in completing clamping or releasing actions. The second driving device 204 drives the first horizontal arm 201 to move back and forth horizontally. The demolding mechanism 260 also includes a third driving device 207, which drives the first horizontal arm 201 to move up and down vertically. The demolding mechanism 260 also includes a fourth driving device 210. The driving device 210 drives one or more demolding clamping mechanisms 202 to move left and right in the horizontal direction; the demolding mechanism 260 also includes a demolding pitch changing mechanism 211. In this optional embodiment, the demolding pitch changing mechanism 211 includes a demolding curve roller 230 and one or more sliding pins 231. The sliding pins 231 are disposed on the demolding curve roller 230 and move with the slotting movement on the demolding curve roller 230. One or more sliding pins 231 are connected to one or more demolding clamping mechanisms 202. When the fourth driving device 210 drives the demolding curve roller 230 to rotate, the sliding pins 231 move with the slotting movement on the demolding curve roller 230, thereby driving the demolding clamping mechanism 202 connected to it to move, so that the distance between adjacent demolding clamping mechanisms 202 is changed. Optionally, the demolding variable distance mechanism 211 can be a flat plate with grooves on its surface. The demolding clamping mechanism 202 is connected to the flat plate through the grooves. The flat plate moves in the horizontal or vertical direction, driving the demolding clamping mechanism 202 to move.

[0193] Figure 2f An alternative embodiment of the demolding pitch mechanism 211 is shown.

[0194] In this optional embodiment, the demolding pitch-changing mechanism 211 is connected to one or more demolding clamping mechanisms 202. Driven by the fourth driving device 210, the demolding pitch-changing mechanism 211 moves, causing other connected demolding clamping mechanisms 202 to move horizontally left and right, thus changing the distance between adjacent demolding clamping mechanisms 202. Optionally, the distance between adjacent demolding clamping mechanisms 202 can be changed, with the pitch-changing lengths of the two middle demolding clamping mechanisms 202 differing from the pitch-changing distances of the other demolding clamping mechanisms 202. Optionally, the pitch-changing distance between any two demolding clamping mechanisms 202 can be adjusted.

[0195] In this optional embodiment, the demolding pitch mechanism 211 may be composed of one or more connecting rods 212, which are mounted on the first cross arm 201. The demolding clamping mechanism 202 is connected to the connecting rods 212, and the movement of the connecting rods 212 causes the demolding clamping mechanism 202 to move accordingly. Optionally, the demolding pitch mechanism 211 is connected to one or more demolding clamping mechanisms 202. Under the drive of the fourth driving device 210, one or more demolding clamping mechanisms 202 drive the demolding pitch mechanism 211 to move. The demolding pitch mechanism 211 drives other demolding clamping mechanisms 202 connected to it to move left and right in the horizontal direction, so that the distance between adjacent demolding clamping mechanisms 202 is changed. Optionally, the demolding pitch adjustment mechanism 211 can be composed of one or more connecting rods 212, which are mounted on the first cross arm 201. The demolding clamping mechanism 202 is connected to the connecting rod 212. The movement of the demolding clamping mechanism 202 drives the connecting rod 212 to move, and the movement of the connecting rod 212 causes other demolding clamping mechanisms 202 to move accordingly. Optionally, the demolding pitch adjustment mechanism 211 can be a flat plate with slots on its surface. The demolding clamping mechanism 202 is connected to the flat plate through the slots. The movement of the flat plate in the horizontal or vertical direction drives the demolding clamping mechanism 202 to move. Optionally, the demolding pitch adjustment mechanism 211 can be a flat plate with slots on its surface. The demolding clamping mechanism 202 is connected to the flat plate through the surface slots. The movement of the demolding pitch adjustment mechanism 211 drives the flat plate to move in the horizontal or vertical direction, and the surface slots of the flat plate drive the other demolding clamping mechanisms 202 to move.

[0196] Figure 2g An alternative embodiment of the demolding pitch mechanism 211 is shown.

[0197] In this optional embodiment, the demolding pitch-changing mechanism 211 is connected to one or more demolding clamping mechanisms 202. Driven by the fourth driving device 210, the demolding pitch-changing mechanism 211 moves, causing other connected demolding clamping mechanisms 202 to move horizontally left and right, thus changing the distance between adjacent demolding clamping mechanisms 202. Optionally, the distance between adjacent demolding clamping mechanisms 202 can be changed, with the pitch-changing lengths of the two middle demolding clamping mechanisms 202 differing from the pitch-changing distances of the other demolding clamping mechanisms 202. Optionally, the pitch-changing distance between any two demolding clamping mechanisms 202 can be adjusted.

[0198] In this optional embodiment, the demolding distance variable mechanism 211 includes a demolding curve roller 230 and one or more sliding pins 231. The sliding pins 231 are disposed on the demolding curve roller 230 and move with the slotted movement on the demolding curve roller 230. One or more sliding pins 231 are connected to one or more demolding clamping mechanisms 202. When the fourth driving device 210 drives the demolding curve roller 230 to rotate, the sliding pins 231 move with the slotted movement on the demolding curve roller 230, thereby driving the demolding clamping mechanism 202 connected to it to move, so that the distance between adjacent demolding clamping mechanisms 202 is variable. Optionally, the demolding distance variable mechanism 211 can be a flat plate with slots on its surface. The demolding clamping mechanism 202 is connected to the flat plate through the slots. The flat plate moves in the horizontal or vertical direction, driving the demolding clamping mechanism 202 to move.

[0199] Figure 2h An alternative embodiment of the demolding mechanism 260 is shown.

[0200] In this optional embodiment, the demolding mechanism 260 includes a first horizontal arm 201, one or more demolding clamping mechanisms 202, a first driving device 203, and a second driving device 204. The first horizontal arm 201 is mounted on the frame 100, and the demolding clamping mechanism 202 is mounted on the first horizontal arm 201. The demolding clamping mechanism 202 includes an upper opening and closing module 205 and a lower opening and closing module 206. The first driving device 203 drives the upper opening and closing module 205 and the lower opening and closing module 206 to cooperate in completing the clamping or releasing action. The second driving device 204 drives the first horizontal arm 201 forward in the horizontal direction. The demolding mechanism 260 further includes a third drive device 207, which drives the first horizontal arm 201 to move vertically up and down. The demolding mechanism 260 also includes a fifth drive device 220, which drives one or more demolding clamping mechanisms 202 to move horizontally left and right. In this optional embodiment, when the fifth drive is a motor, the number of motors is the same as the number of demolding clamping mechanisms 202, and each motor drives one set of demolding clamping mechanisms 202 to move horizontally left and right, thus allowing the spacing between adjacent demolding clamping mechanisms 202 to vary. In this case, each demolding clamping mechanism 202 can move independently, and the distance between adjacent demolding clamping mechanisms 202 can be adjusted arbitrarily, making this method more flexible.

[0201] Figure 2i An alternative embodiment of the demolding clamping mechanism 202 is shown.

[0202] In this optional embodiment, the demolding clamping mechanism 202 includes an upper opening and closing module 205 and a lower opening and closing module 206. The first driving device 203 drives the upper opening and closing module 205 and the lower opening and closing module 206 to cooperate in completing the clamping or releasing action. In this optional embodiment, the first driving device 203 drives the upper opening and closing module 205 to move up and down to complete the clamping or releasing action of the demolding clamping mechanism 202.

[0203] Figure 2j An alternative embodiment of the demolding clamping mechanism 202 is shown.

[0204] In this optional embodiment, the demolding clamping mechanism 202 includes an upper opening and closing module 205, a lower opening and closing module 206, and a first driving device 203 drives the upper opening and closing module 205 and the lower opening and closing module 206 to cooperate in completing the clamping or releasing action. In this optional embodiment, the first driving device 203 is connected to the upper opening and closing module 205 and the lower opening and closing module 206 through a demolding clamping mechanism connecting rod 240, thereby driving the upper opening and closing module 205 and the lower opening and closing module 206 to cooperate in completing the clamping or releasing action. In this optional embodiment, the first driving device 203 drives the upper opening and closing module 205 and the lower opening and closing module 206 to move simultaneously towards each other or in opposite directions to complete the clamping or releasing action of the demolding clamping mechanism 202.

[0205] Figure 2k , Figure 2l An alternative embodiment of the release pitch mechanism 211 is shown together.

[0206] In this optional embodiment, the demolding variable distance mechanism 211 includes: a limiting block 271, a first limiting plate 272, a second limiting plate 273, a third limiting plate 274, and a limiting rod 275; wherein, the limiting block 271 is arranged in the middle of the multiple demolding clamping mechanisms 202 to play a limiting role, and the first limiting plate 272, the second limiting plate 273, and the third limiting plate 274 are arranged below the demolding clamping mechanism 202; the first limiting plate 272 is arranged near the limiting block of the demolding clamping mechanism 202 in the middle part, and the second limiting plate 273 and the third limiting plate 274 are arranged at intervals. The limiting rod 275 is fixedly connected to the limiting plate 3 274 and can slide within a certain range relative to the limiting plate 273; the limiting rods 275 on both sides of the limiting block 271 are fixedly connected to the limiting block 271 and are opposite to it, and the limiting plate 1 272 can slide within a certain range; when the fourth driving device 210 drives the demolding clamping mechanism 202 at both ends to move left and right, it drives the other demolding clamping mechanism 202 to move. After each demolding clamping mechanism 202 moves to the limit, the pitch change is completed.

[0207] In this optional embodiment, the demolding variable distance mechanism 211 is connected to one or more demolding clamping mechanisms 202. Under the drive of the fourth driving device 210, the demolding variable distance mechanism 211 moves, and the demolding variable distance mechanism 211 drives other demolding clamping mechanisms 202 connected to it to move left and right in the horizontal direction, so that the distance between adjacent demolding clamping mechanisms 202 is changed.

[0208] Figure 3a , Figure 3b , Figure 3c , Figure 3d This together illustrates an alternative embodiment of the overall structure of the gripping device in the thumb folding gripper 300.

[0209] In this optional embodiment, the gripping device includes one or more gripping mechanisms 301, a second horizontal arm 302, and a sixth driving device 303. The gripping mechanism 301 is mounted on the second horizontal arm 302. Each gripping mechanism 301 includes one or more grippers 307. The grippers 307 move by swinging, horizontally, along an arc, or along a vertical zigzag line under the drive of the sixth driving device 303. The gripping device also includes a seventh driving device 304, which drives the second horizontal arm 302 to move up and down in the vertical direction. The gripping device also includes an eighth driving device 305, which drives the second horizontal arm 302 to move back and forth in the horizontal direction. The gripping device also includes a ninth driving device 306, which drives the second horizontal arm 302 to rotate horizontally. A gripper 307 is mounted on the second horizontal arm 302. Driven by the sixth drive device 303, the gripper 307 bends and picks up the glove's thumb. The second horizontal arm 302, driven by the seventh and eighth drive devices 305, performs translational and lifting movements, thereby transferring the gripped glove to the storage device 500. Optionally, the second horizontal arm 302 rotates 180 degrees under the drive of the ninth drive device 306, and the glove gripped by the gripper 307 changes the direction of its fingers and swaps the positions of its left and right sides. Optionally, the second horizontal arm 302 rotates 90 degrees under the drive of the ninth drive device 306, and the glove gripped by the gripper 307 changes the direction of its fingers and swaps the positions of its left and right sides (applicable when the storage mechanism 502 is arranged perpendicularly to the demolding mechanism 260). In actual production, most production line hand mold rods are symmetrical about the center, with left-hand hand molds on one side and right-hand hand molds on the other. The horizontal rotation of the second horizontal arm 302 achieves the overlapping of left and right hands, that is, the gloves conveyed to the same storage mechanism 502 are in the order of one left hand, then one right hand, then another left hand, then another right hand, and so on. Optionally, when the ninth drive device 306 is present, it is also possible to choose not to rotate. An optional embodiment of the horizontal rotation of the second horizontal arm 302 is as follows: when the hand molds on the production line are arranged with left-hand and right-hand hand molds on the left and right sides respectively, the gloves picked up by the gripping mechanism 301 on the second horizontal arm 302 are also arranged with left and right hands on the left and right sides respectively. The second horizontal arm 302 rotates 180 degrees, driving the gripping mechanism 301 above it to rotate 180 degrees, and the gripped gloves are swapped left and right, and the finger direction is also opposite to that when not rotating. When the gripping device rotates once every time, the glove packaging method is to stack the left and right hands alternately, and the finger directions of the left and right hands are opposite.Optionally, the gripping device further includes a thirty-ninth driving device 310, which drives one or more gripping mechanisms 301 to rotate horizontally. An optional embodiment of the horizontal rotation of the gripping mechanism 301 is as follows: when the gloves in the external production line are arranged alternately in rows of left-hand and right-hand gloves, the gripping mechanism 301 also rotates alternately when picking up each corresponding glove, so that the glove packaging method is to stack the left and right hands alternately, and the fingers of the left and right hands are opposite in direction. Optionally, the gripper 307 can be plate-shaped, and the plate-shaped gripper 307 swings to push the thumb to move, thereby achieving thumb folding and glove clamping; Optionally, the gripper 307 can be a plate-shaped object with a certain bend or curvature, and the plate-shaped gripper 307 swings to push the thumb to move, thereby achieving thumb folding and glove clamping; Optionally, the gripper 307 can be in the form of a rod with one or more bends, and the rod-shaped gripper 307 swings to push the thumb to move, thereby achieving thumb folding and glove clamping; Optionally, the surface of the gripper 307 is coated with Teflon; Optionally, the gripper 307 can be a pneumatic flexible gripper, and the flexible gripper generates deformation under different air pressures, thereby achieving thumb folding and glove clamping; Optionally, the gripper 307 can be a mechanical flexible gripper or other forms of flexible gripper, and the flexible gripper generates deformation under the drive of the sixth driving device 303, thereby achieving thumb folding and glove clamping.

[0210] In this optional embodiment, the gripper mechanism 301 further includes a gripper fixing base 330, a gripper connecting rod 311, a gripper drive shaft 332, a gripper connecting rod shaft 333, and a gripper swing shaft 334. Optionally, when a set of gripper mechanisms 301 includes one gripper 307, the gripper 307 is located on the same side as the thumb of the glove being picked up; when a set of gripper mechanisms 301 includes two grippers 307, the two grippers 307 are arranged opposite each other on the left and right sides of the gripper mechanism 301; when a set of gripper mechanisms 301 includes three or more grippers 307, at least one gripper 307 is located on the same side as the thumb of the glove being picked up. The shapes and sizes of the different grippers 307 in the gripper mechanism 301 can be the same or different. In some alternative embodiments, a set of gripper mechanisms 301 contains two grippers 307, one of which can be relatively large and the other relatively small. Generally, during installation, the larger gripper 307 is installed on the thumb side. Optionally, when the gripper 307 is a soft claw, when a set of gripper mechanisms 301 contains two grippers 307, the larger soft claw is used on the thumb at one time, and the smaller soft claw is used on the other side.

[0211] In some alternative embodiments, the gripping device further includes an eleventh driving device that drives one or more gripping mechanisms 301 to move left and right in the horizontal direction. Optionally, the eleventh driving device drives one or more gripper mechanisms 301 to move horizontally, resulting in one or more grippers 307 expanding or contracting horizontally with the midpoint of the grippers 307 as the center; and the distance between adjacent grippers 307 changes. Optionally, the eleventh driving device drives one or more gripper mechanisms 301 to move horizontally, resulting in one or more grippers 307 expanding or contracting horizontally with the midpoint of the grippers 307 as the center; and the distance between adjacent grippers 307 changes, and the change in distance between the two middle grippers 307 is different from the change in distance between the other two adjacent grippers 307. Optionally, the eleventh driving device drives one or more gripper mechanisms 301 to move horizontally, resulting in one or more grippers 307 expanding or contracting horizontally with the midpoint of the grippers 307 as the center; and the change in distance between adjacent grippers 307 is adjustable.

[0212] In this optional embodiment, the gripping device further includes a shaping pressure plate 309 mechanism; the shaping pressure plate 309 mechanism includes one or more shaping pressure plates 309; the shaping pressure plates 309 are disposed near the gripping mechanism 301; the gripping device further includes a tenth driving device 308, the tenth driving device 308 drives the shaping pressure plates 309 to move up and down in the vertical direction; the stroke of the shaping pressure plates 309 moving up and down in the vertical direction is adjustable. During the process of the gripping device conveying the gloves to the storage device 500, the number of gloves in the storage mechanism 502 is constantly increasing, and the thickness of the stacked gloves is constantly increasing. Since the gloves are made of flexible materials, they are relatively fluffy after being stacked. If they are not pressed and tidied, the stacked gloves may deform or tip over. The shaping plate 309 plays a role in pressing and shaping the gloves during the process of the gripping mechanism 301 conveying the picked-up gloves to the storage device 500. In addition, during the downward pressing of the shaping plate 309, the height of the already stacked gloves is reduced, leaving space for the gripper 307 to open. In some optional embodiments, during the process of the gripper mechanism 301 conveying the picked-up glove to the storage device 500, before the gripper mechanism 301 releases the glove, the shaping plate 309 descends under the drive of the tenth drive device 308 to hold the glove, and then the gripper 307 opens; in some optional embodiments, during the process of the gripper mechanism 301 conveying the picked-up glove to the storage device 500, before the gripper mechanism 301 picks up the glove, the shaping plate 309 rises under the drive of the tenth drive device 308 to prevent interference with the tray 402; in some optional embodiments, during the process of the gripper mechanism 301 conveying the picked-up glove to the storage device 500, after the gripper mechanism 301 releases the glove, the shaping plate 309 moves up and down under the drive of the tenth drive device 308 to prevent the glove from sticking to or adhering to the gripper mechanism 301.

[0213] In some optional embodiments, the shaping pressure plate 309 is disposed on both sides of the gripping mechanism 301, in front of and behind the gripping mechanism 301; optionally, the shaping pressure plate 309 is disposed on both sides of the gripping mechanism 301, to the left or right of the gripping mechanism 301; optionally, the shaping pressure plate 309 is disposed on both sides of the gripping mechanism 301, in pairs in front of and behind the gripping mechanism 301; optionally, the shaping pressure plate 309 is disposed on both sides of the gripping mechanism 301, in pairs in the left and right sides of the gripping mechanism 301; optionally, the shaping pressure plate 309 is plate-shaped, and the shaping pressure plate 309 moves vertically up and down to hold the glove; optionally, the shaping pressure plate 309 is rod-shaped, and the shaping pressure plate 309 moves vertically up and down to hold the glove; optionally, the shaping pressure plate 309... The 9-shaped forming plate 309 is a bent rod, and it moves vertically up and down to hold the gloves. Optionally, the forming plate 309 is a strip, and it moves vertically up and down to hold the gloves. The forming plate 309 can shape the gloves placed in the storage device 500 to address the different loft heights of different types of gloves during stacking. When the gripper mechanism 301 descends to a set height, the forming plate 309 descends to hold the gloves. If there are gloves previously placed below the gripper mechanism 301, the forming plate 309 can achieve the holding effect, creating space between the gripper 307 and the gloves below, allowing the gripper 307 to open. The holding effect of the forming plate 309 can make multiple pairs of gloves fit more tightly, reduce loft, and make the gloves stacked more neatly.

[0214] In some optional embodiments, the stroke of the shaping plate 309 in its vertical lifting motion is adjustable. The adjustable stroke of the shaping plate 309 can take two forms: one is that the mechanical connection of the shaping plate 309 is adjustable, i.e., the relative height between the shaping plate 309 and the gripper 307 is adjusted by adjusting the mechanical structure; the other is that when the shaping plate 309 moves vertically under the drive of the tenth driving device 308, the tenth driving device 308 can control the stroke of each lifting motion of the shaping plate 309. Either adjustment method can be selected. Adjusting the stroke of the shaping plate 309 allows it to adjust the pressing height each time during the glove shaping process, taking into account gloves of different thicknesses or loft levels. This makes the pressing effect of the shaping plate 309 more pronounced, allowing multiple gloves to fit more snugly, reducing loft, and resulting in more orderly glove stacking.

[0215] Figure 3e An alternative embodiment of the overall structure of the thumb folding gripper 300 is shown.

[0216] In this optional embodiment, the thumb-folding gripping device 300 includes two sets of gripping devices. Each set of gripping devices includes one or more gripping mechanisms 301, a second horizontal arm 302, and a sixth driving device 303. The gripping mechanism 301 is mounted on the second horizontal arm 302. Each gripping mechanism 301 includes one or more grippers 307. The grippers 307 move by swinging, horizontally, along an arc, or along a vertical fold line under the drive of the sixth driving device 303. The gripping device also includes a seventh driving device 304, which drives the second horizontal arm 302 to move up and down in the vertical direction. The gripping device also includes an eighth driving device 305, which drives the second horizontal arm 302 to move back and forth in the horizontal direction. The gripping device also includes a ninth driving device 306, which drives the second horizontal arm 302 to rotate horizontally. The gripper 307 is mounted on the second horizontal arm 302. Driven by the sixth drive device 303, the gripper 307 bends and picks up the glove's thumb. Driven by the seventh and eighth drive devices 305, the second horizontal arm 302 completes translation and lifting actions, thereby transferring the gripped glove to the storage device 500. The advantage of including two sets of gripping devices in the thumb-folding gripper 300 is that it promotes the stability of the mechanical structure. When many handpieces are installed on the handpiece rod in the external production line, the length of the handpiece rod increases accordingly. The number of gripping mechanisms 301 in the thumb-folding gripper 300 should also correspond to the number of handpieces on the external handpiece rod, resulting in an excessively long second cross arm 302. This can cause significant shaking during movement and also increase the strength requirements of the corresponding connecting parts. Including two sets of gripping devices in the thumb-folding gripper 300 avoids this problem. Furthermore, when the handpieces on the handpiece rod in the external production line are arranged symmetrically, with the left and right handpieces symmetrically installed around the left center point on the left side and the right handpieces symmetrically installed around the right center point on the right side, including two sets of gripping devices in the thumb-folding gripper 300 allows for the cross-stacking of left and right gloves. In some optional embodiments, the thumb-folding gripper 300 includes more than two sets of gripping devices.

[0217] In this optional embodiment, the gripping device further includes a shaping pressure plate 309 mechanism; the shaping pressure plate 309 mechanism includes one or more shaping pressure plates 309; the shaping pressure plates 309 are disposed near the gripping mechanism 301; the gripping device further includes a tenth driving device 308, the tenth driving device 308 drives the shaping pressure plates 309 to move up and down in the vertical direction; the stroke of the shaping pressure plates 309 moving up and down in the vertical direction is adjustable.

[0218] Figure 3f An alternative embodiment of the overall structure of the gripping device in the thumb folding gripper 300 is shown.

[0219] In this optional embodiment, the gripping device includes one or more gripping mechanisms 301, a second horizontal arm 302, and a sixth driving device 303. The gripping mechanism 301 is mounted on the second horizontal arm 302. Each gripping mechanism 301 includes one or more grippers 307. The grippers 307 move by swinging, horizontally, along an arc, or along a vertical zigzag line under the drive of the sixth driving device 303. The gripping device also includes a seventh driving device 304, which drives the second horizontal arm 302 to move up and down in the vertical direction. The gripping device also includes an eighth driving device 305, which drives the second horizontal arm 302 to move back and forth in the horizontal direction. The gripping device also includes a ninth driving device 306, which drives the second horizontal arm 302 to rotate horizontally. The gripper 307 is mounted on the second horizontal arm 302. Driven by the sixth drive device 303, the gripper 307 bends and picks up the glove's thumb. Driven by the seventh and eighth drive devices 305, the second horizontal arm 302 completes translation and lifting actions, thereby transferring the gripped glove to the storage device 500.

[0220] In this optional embodiment, the gripping device further includes an eleventh driving device, a gripper slider 314, a gripper guide rail 315, and a gripper curved roller 325. The gripper curved roller 325 is connected to the gripper mechanism 301, and the gripper mechanism 301 is connected to the gripper slider 314 and the gripper guide rail 315. The gripper 307 can move horizontally along the gripper guide rail 315. The eleventh driving device drives the gripper curved roller 325 to rotate, and the gripper curved roller 325 drives the gripper mechanism 301 connected to it to move horizontally along the guide rail, thereby realizing the change of the distance between the gripper mechanisms 301. The eleventh driving device drives one or more gripping mechanisms 301 to move horizontally, which will produce the effect of one or more grippers 307 expanding or contracting horizontally with the midpoint of the grippers 307 as the center; and the distance between two adjacent grippers 307 changes; optionally, the distance between two adjacent grippers 307 changes, and the distance change value of the middle two grippers 307 is different from the distance change value of the other two adjacent grippers 307; optionally, the distance between two adjacent grippers 307 changes, and the value of the distance change between two adjacent grippers 307 is adjustable; in some optional embodiments, the distance of the demolding clamping mechanism 202 in the demolding device 200 is fixed and cannot be adjusted, and the distance of the demolding clamping mechanism 202 is not the same as the distance of the storage mechanism 502 in the storage device 500. Therefore, the gripping device needs to change the distance between the gripping mechanisms 301 after picking up the glove or after transferring the glove to the storage device 500.

[0221] Figure 3g An alternative embodiment of the thumb folding gripper 300 with a gripper 307 is shown.

The sixth driving device 303 is connected to the gripper gear 312, and the gripper connecting rod 311 connects the gripper gear 312 and the gripper 307. The sixth driving device 303 drives the gripper gear 312 to rotate, thereby driving the gripper 307 connected to it to complete the clamping or releasing action. The thirty-ninth driving device 310 is connected to the gripper fixing base 330 and drives the gripper mechanism 301 to rotate horizontally. In some alternative embodiments, when the gloves in the external production line are arranged alternately in rows of left-hand and right-hand gloves, the gripping mechanism 301 also rotates alternately when gripping each corresponding glove, so that the glove packaging method is to stack the left and right hands alternately, and the fingers of the left and right hands are opposite in direction.

The gripper fixing base 330 is mounted on the gripper mechanism square frame 324. The gripper 307 and the gripper gear 312 are disposed on the gripper fixing base 330. The gripper gear 312 rotates about the gripper drive shaft 332, and the gripper 307 swings about the gripper swing shaft 334. The gripper 307 and the gripper gear 312 are connected by the gripper connecting rod 311, the gripper drive shaft 332, and the gripper connecting rod shaft 333. When the gripper mechanism 301 is activated, the sixth drive device 303 drives the gripper gear 312 to rotate, and the gripper gear 312 drives the gripper 307 to swing through the gripper connecting rod 311. Optionally, the gripper mechanism 301 includes two grippers 307, and the two grippers 307 swing in opposite directions.

In some alternative embodiments, a set of gripper mechanisms 301 contains two grippers 307, one of which can be relatively large and the other relatively small. Generally, during installation, the larger gripper 307 is installed on the thumb side. Optionally, when the gripper 307 is a soft claw, when a set of gripper mechanisms 301 contains two grippers 307, the larger soft claw is used on the thumb at one time, and the smaller soft claw is used on the other side.

[0227] Figure 4a , Figure 4b An alternative embodiment of the pallet device 400 is shown together.

[0228] In this optional embodiment, the tray device 400 includes a tray 402 mechanism, which includes a third cross arm 401 and trays 402. The trays 402 are disposed on the third cross arm 401, and there are one or more trays 402.

The movement mode can be that two or more pallet tongues 403 are divided into two groups, and the two groups of pallet tongues 403 move in the same direction, or the two groups of pallet tongues 403 move towards each other or in opposite directions.

[0231] In this optional embodiment, the tray device 400 includes a tray 402 mechanism, which includes a third cross arm 401 and trays 402. The trays 402 are disposed on the third cross arm 401, and there are one or more trays 402.

Optionally, referring to the arrangement of hand molds on the hand mold rod of the production line, the twelfth drive device 404 drives the pallet tongues 403 to move left and right in the horizontal direction. The movement mode can be that two or more pallet tongues 403 are divided into two groups, and the two groups of pallet tongues 403 move in the same direction, or the two groups of pallet tongues 403 move towards each other or in opposite directions.

[0233] In this optional embodiment, the pallet 402 mechanism further includes a thirteenth driving device 407, which drives the third horizontal arm 401 to move vertically. The vertical movement of the pallet device 400 better supports the demolded glove, ensuring it fits the pallet 402 better during demolding. The vertical movement of the pallet device 400 also prevents the glove from deforming during thumb folding or clamping by the thumb-folding gripper 300. When there are two sets of demolding mechanisms 260 with different demolding heights, the vertical movement of the pallet device 402 allows the pallet 402 to adapt to the heights of the two demolding mechanisms 260.
