Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of ceramic tile packaging, and in particular to a high-speed ceramic tile packaging machine. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional tile packaging machines involve the following steps: placing the tile on a cardboard sheet, attaching corner protectors, and folding the cardboard into a box to prevent damage during transport. However, existing tile packaging machines require the conveyor belt to stop at each packaging station. For example, when attaching corner protectors, the tile must stop on the conveyor belt. Only after the corner protectors are attached can the conveyor belt start again to transport the tile to the cardboard folding station. At the cardboard folding station, the conveyor belt stops, and then the cardboard is folded into a box. Only after the box is folded can the conveyor belt start again to transport the folded tile to the next station. This prevents continuous tile transport and consequently affects packaging efficiency.

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by this invention is: how to solve the problem of low working efficiency of existing tile packaging machines. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, the purpose of this invention is to provide a high-speed ceramic tile packaging machine, which improves the efficiency of ceramic tile packaging by having a corner-laying device and a paper-folding device move synchronously with the ceramic tile during the continuous conveying process, so as to realize the packaging operation that follows the ceramic tile while it is moving.

[0005] The technical solution adopted in this invention is: a high-speed ceramic tile packaging machine, comprising a frame, and a conveying device, a corner-laying device, and a paper-folding device respectively installed on the frame;

[0006] The conveying device includes a packaging conveyor belt, which includes a corner-wrapping section and a carton folding section connected in sequence.

[0007] The corner-attaching device includes a first slide table slidably connected to the frame and a corner-attaching mechanism installed on the first slide table for inserting corners. The first slide table reciprocates along the flow direction of the corner-attaching installation section. When the corner-attaching mechanism inserts the corner, the first slide table moves synchronously with the tile on the corner-attaching installation section that is being inserted. After the corner-attaching mechanism has finished inserting the corner, the first slide table quickly returns to the starting point of the corner-attaching installation section.

[0008] The origami device includes an origami slide that is slidably connected to the frame, and an origami mechanism installed on the origami slide for folding cardboard into a carton. The origami slide moves back and forth along the flow direction of the carton folding section. When the origami mechanism folds the cardboard, the origami slide moves synchronously with the tile on the carton folding section that is folding the carton. After the origami mechanism folds the cardboard into a carton, the origami slide quickly returns to the starting point of the carton folding section.

[0009] The high-speed tile packaging machine of this application has a corner-insertion mechanism installed on a first slide connected to the frame, and a folding mechanism installed on a folding slide connected to the frame. When packaging tiles, the corner-insertion mechanism and the folding mechanism move synchronously with the tiles. That is, during packaging, the corner-insertion mechanism and the folding mechanism are stationary relative to the tiles. After packaging, the corner-insertion mechanism and the folding mechanism quickly return to the starting point to package the next stack of tiles. This design allows the tiles to be transported without stopping, which improves the speed of tile packaging and avoids the problem of the equipment's service life being affected by frequent start-stop.

[0010] In some embodiments, there are two first slides, which are respectively set on opposite sides of the corner mounting section. The two first slides move synchronously, and each first slide is provided with two sets of corner mounting mechanisms. The four sets of corner mounting mechanisms correspond to the four corners of the tile.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, setting the two first slides on both sides of the corner mounting section, interference with the conveying of the tiles can be avoided. Efficiency can be improved by simultaneously inserting corner protectors into the four corners of the tiles using four corner mounting mechanisms.

[0012] In some embodiments, the single-assembly corner-wrapping mechanism includes a corner-wrapping material trough, a corner-wrapping pick-and-place component, and a corner-wrapping pusher component. The corner-wrapping material trough is installed on a first slide table, the corner-wrapping pick-and-place component is connected to the corner-wrapping pusher component, the corner-wrapping pusher component is installed on the first slide table, and the corner-wrapping pusher component is used to drive the corner-wrapping pick-and-place component to reciprocate between the discharge end of the corner-wrapping material trough and the corner of the tile.

[0013] In some embodiments, the single-assembly corner-wrapping mechanism further includes a lifting drive component mounted on a first slide. The output end of the lifting drive component is connected to the corner-wrapping pusher component and is used to drive the corner-wrapping pusher component to move up and down.

[0014] In some embodiments, the folding slide includes two second slides and a third slide that move synchronously. The two second slides are respectively located on opposite sides of the carton folding section, and the third slide is located between the two second slides and at the bottom of the carton folding section.

[0015] In some embodiments, the folding mechanism includes a paper-pressing side assembly, a paper-folding cover assembly, and a paper-folding front and rear cover assembly. The paper-pressing side assembly is mounted on two second slides for folding the sides of the paper, the paper-folding cover assembly is mounted on two second slides for folding the small cover of the paper, and the paper-folding front and rear cover assemblies are mounted on opposite ends of a third slide for folding the front and rear covers of the paper.

[0016] In some embodiments, the folding mechanism further includes two cardboard side guide plates, which are respectively disposed opposite to two second slides, and the two cardboard side guide plates are disposed at the end of the second slides near the first slide.

[0017] In some embodiments, the conveying assembly further includes a tile conveyor belt and a cardboard conveyor belt. The tile conveyor belt is located at the end of the corner mounting section away from the carton folding section. The tile conveyor belt and the corner mounting section are provided with a cardboard junction. A paper conveyor belt is located at the bottom of the tile conveyor belt, and the end of the paper conveyor belt corresponds to the cardboard junction.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, and placing the cardboard conveyor belt at the bottom of the tile conveyor belt, the cardboard and tiles meet at the junction of the cardboard sheets, so that the tiles fall precisely onto the bottom plate of the cardboard. This allows the tiles to fall accurately onto the cardboard without the tile conveyor belt needing to stop, which helps to improve the efficiency of tile packaging.

[0019] In some embodiments, the cardboard conveyor belt includes a paper-laying section and a paper-feeding section connected in sequence. The paper-laying section is arranged parallel to the tile conveyor belt, and one end of the paper-feeding section is connected to the tile placement section, while the other end extends obliquely toward the junction of the paper sheets.

[0020] In some embodiments, a paper feeding device is also included. The paper feeding device includes a paper picking mechanism and a paper feeding mechanism. The paper picking mechanism is located on the side of the paper feeding section and is used to lift the paper from the stacking area. The paper feeding mechanism is located above the paper feeding section and is used to place the lifted paper on the paper feeding section. Attached Figure Description

[0034] Please see Figures 1 to 8 A preferred embodiment of the present invention provides a high-speed ceramic tile packaging machine 100, comprising a frame 10, a conveying device 20, a cardboard placement device 30, a corner-wrapping device 40, and a folding device 50 respectively mounted on the frame 10. The conveying device 20 is used to convey ceramic tiles and cardboard, the cardboard placement device 30 is used to place cardboard on the conveyor belt, the corner-wrapping device 40 is used to place corner wrappers on the four corners of the ceramic tiles, and the folding device 50 is used to fold the cardboard into a carton to wrap the ceramic tiles inside the carton.

[0035] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the conveying device 20 includes a tile conveyor belt 21, a cardboard conveyor belt 22, and a packaging conveyor belt 23. The tile conveyor belt 21 and the packaging conveyor belt 23 are connected sequentially, and a cardboard junction is provided between the tile conveyor belt 21 and the packaging conveyor belt 23. The cardboard conveyor belt 22 is located at the bottom of the tile conveyor belt 21, and the end of the cardboard conveyor belt corresponds to the cardboard junction. By placing the cardboard conveyor belt 22 at the bottom of the tile conveyor belt 21, the cardboard and the tile meet at the cardboard junction, so that the tile falls precisely onto the bottom plate of the cardboard. This allows the tile to fall accurately onto the cardboard without the tile conveyor belt 21 needing to stop, which helps improve the efficiency of tile packaging. Furthermore, the cardboard conveyor belt 22 includes a paper-laying section 221 and a paper-feeding section 222 connected sequentially. The paper-laying section 221 is arranged parallel to the tile conveyor belt 21, and one end of the paper-feeding section 222 is connected to the tile placement section, while the other end extends obliquely towards the cardboard junction. Furthermore, the packaging conveyor belt 23 includes a corner mounting section 231 and a carton folding section 232 connected in sequence. The corner mounting section 231 is located at one end close to the tile conveyor belt 21, and the carton folding section 232 is located at the other end away from the tile conveyor belt 21.

[0036] Preferably, the packaging conveyor belt 23 is driven by a conveying power component 233, which is a servo motor.

[0037] Please see Figure 3 and Figure 4 The paper feeding device includes a paper picking mechanism 31 and a paper feeding mechanism 32. The paper picking mechanism 31 is located on the side of the paper feeding section 221 and is used to lift the paper sheets from the stacking area. The paper feeding mechanism 32 is located above the paper feeding section 221 and is used to place the lifted paper sheets on the paper feeding section 221. Specifically, the paper picking mechanism 31 includes a paper picking lifting component 311 and a paper sheet picking and placing component 312. The paper picking lifting component 311 is located above the paper sheet storage position and is used to drive the paper sheet picking and placing component to lift and lower. Optionally, the paper picking lifting component 311 is a cylinder, and the paper sheet picking and placing component 312 is a vacuum suction cup. The telescopic rod of the cylinder is connected to the vacuum suction cup, and the cylinder body drives the telescopic rod to extend and retract, thereby realizing the lifting and lowering of the vacuum suction cup. The paper feeding mechanism 32 includes a paper feeding bracket 321 and a paper feeding clamp 322 mounted on the paper feeding bracket 321. The paper feeding bracket 321 is installed above the paper feeding section 221. The paper feeding bracket 321 is driven by a motor, a cylinder, or a hydraulic cylinder to reciprocate along the width direction of the paper feeding section 221. In this embodiment, the paper feeding clamp 322 is a clamp cylinder. Preferably, there are two cardboard storage positions, respectively located on opposite sides of the paper feeding section 221. Each cardboard storage position corresponds to a paper feeding mechanism 31. Correspondingly, the paper feeding clamp 322 is set as a double-headed clamp cylinder. This arrangement can improve the efficiency of cardboard feeding and retrieval, thereby improving the efficiency of tile packaging.

[0038] Please refer to the following: Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 The corner-attaching device 40 includes a first slide 41 slidably connected to the frame 10 and a corner-attaching mechanism 42 installed on the first slide 41 for inserting corners. The first slide 41 reciprocates along the flow direction of the corner-attaching installation section 231. When the corner-attaching mechanism 42 inserts the corner, the first slide 41 moves synchronously with the tile being inserted on the corner-attaching installation section 231. After the corner-attaching mechanism 42 has finished inserting the corner, the first slide 41 quickly returns to the starting point of the corner-attaching installation section 231.

[0039] Specifically, there are two first slides 41, which are respectively set on opposite sides of the corner mounting section 231. The two first slides 41 move synchronously, and each first slide 41 is provided with two sets of corner mounting mechanisms 42. The four sets of corner mounting mechanisms 42 correspond to the four corners of the tile. Setting the two first slides 41 on both sides of the corner mounting section 231 can avoid interference of the first slides 41 with the conveying of the tile. The efficiency can be improved by inserting corner mounting mechanisms 42 into the four corners of the tile at the same time. A first slider is provided at the bottom of the first slide 41, and a first slide rail corresponding to the first slider is provided on the frame 10. The two first slides 41 are connected by a first synchronous connecting rod. In this embodiment, the two first slides 41 are driven to slide back and forth along the first slide rail by a first sliding power component 43. Preferably, the first sliding power component 43 is a servo motor. The first sliding power component 43 is connected to the first slide 41 through a synchronous pulley and a synchronous belt.

[0040] like Figure 5 As shown, the single-assembly corner-wrapping mechanism 42 includes a corner-wrapping material trough 421, a corner-wrapping pick-and-place component 422, and a corner-wrapping pusher 423. The corner-wrapping material trough 421 is mounted on a first slide table 41 and is used to neatly store corner wraps to be retrieved. The corner-wrapping pick-and-place component 422 is connected to the corner-wrapping pusher 423, which is mounted on the first slide table 41. The corner-wrapping pusher 423 drives the corner-wrapping pick-and-place component 422 to reciprocate between the outlet end of the corner-wrapping material trough 421 and the corner of the tile, so as to drive the corner-wrapping pick-and-place component 422 to take out the corner wrap from the outlet of the corner-wrapping material trough 421 and place the corner wrap at the corner of the tile. Further, the single-assembly corner-wrapping mechanism 42 also includes a lifting drive component 424, which is mounted on the first slide table 41. The output end of the lifting drive component 424 is connected to the corner-wrapping pusher 423 and is used to drive the corner-wrapping pusher 423 to rise and fall. In this embodiment, the corner-wrapping pick-and-place component 422 is a vacuum suction cup, the corner-wrapping pusher 423 is a cylinder, and the lifting drive component 424 is a cylinder. Preferably, the corner-wrapping mechanism 42 further includes a corner-wrapping bracket 425, which is mounted on the first slide table 41, and the end of the corner-wrapping bracket 425 away from the first slide table 41 is suspended above the corner-wrapping mounting section 231 of the packaging conveyor belt 23. The corner-wrapping material trough 421, the corner-wrapping pick-and-place component 422, and the corner-wrapping pusher 423 are all mounted on the corner-wrapping bracket 425.

[0041] Please refer to the following: Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 6The folding device 50 includes a folding slide that is slidably connected to the frame 10, and a folding mechanism installed on the folding slide for folding cardboard into a carton. The folding slide moves back and forth along the flow direction of the carton folding section 232. When the folding mechanism folds the cardboard, the folding slide moves synchronously with the tile on the carton folding section 232 that is folding the carton. After the folding mechanism folds the cardboard into a carton, the folding slide quickly returns to the starting point of the carton folding section 232.

[0042] Specifically, the folding slide includes two second slides 51 and one third slide 52 that move synchronously. The two second slides 51 are respectively located on opposite sides of the carton folding section 232, and the third slide 52 is located between the two second slides 51 and at the bottom of the carton folding section 232. This arrangement avoids interference between the second slides 51 and the third slide 52 in the conveying of the tiles. A second slider is provided at the bottom of the second slide 51, and a second slide rail corresponding to the second slider is provided on the frame 10. Similarly, a third slider is provided at the bottom of the third slide 52, and a third slide rail corresponding to the third slider is provided on the frame 10. The two second slides 51 and the third slide 52 are connected by a second synchronous shaft. Furthermore, the second slide 51 and the third slide 52 are driven to reciprocate along the frame 10 by the second sliding power component 58, which is a servo motor, and the second sliding power component 58 is connected to the second slide 51 and the third slide 52 by a synchronous belt and synchronous pulley.

[0043] like Figure 6 As shown, the folding mechanism includes a paper-pressing side assembly 53, a paper-folding small cover assembly 54, and a paper-folding front and rear cover assembly 55. There are two sets of paper-pressing side assemblies 53, which are respectively installed on two second slides 51 and are used to fold the sides of the paper. There are four sets of paper-folding small cover assemblies 54, which are respectively installed on two second slides 51 and correspond to the four small covers of the paper, and are used to fold the small covers of the paper. There are four sets of paper-folding front and rear cover assemblies 55, which are installed in pairs at opposite ends of a third slide 52 and are used to fold the front and rear covers of the paper.

[0044] Specifically, the paperboard pressing side assembly 53 includes a side pressing plate and a side cylinder. The side cylinder pushes the side pressing plate toward the side of the paperboard, causing the side of the paperboard to bend at a 90° angle to the bottom plate. The paperboard folding cap assembly 54 is installed on the side pressing plate. After the side of the paperboard is bent at a 90° angle to the bottom plate, the paperboard folding cap assembly 54 then bends the cap of the paperboard at a 90° angle to the side. The cardboard folding front and rear cover assembly 55 is set on the third slide table 52 along the direction of flow of the packaging conveyor belt 23. The cardboard folding front and rear cover assembly 55 includes front and rear cover push plates, pressure blocks and front and rear cover cylinders. The pressure block is installed at one end of the front and rear cover push plates, and the other end of the front and rear cover push plates is hinged to the front and rear cover cylinders. When the front and rear cover cylinders drive the front and rear cover push plates to press against the front and rear covers of the cardboard, the front and rear cover push plates change the lower half of the front and rear covers of the cardboard from a state flush with the bottom plate to a state at 90° with the bottom plate. Then, under the action of the pressure block, the upper half of the front and rear covers of the cardboard is bent inward, so that the upper half of the front and rear covers of the cardboard changes to a state parallel to the bottom plate.

[0045] like Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the cardboard cover assembly 54 includes a fixed baffle 541, a cover-folding cylinder 542, a cover-folding joint 543, and a cover-folding plate 544. The fixed baffle 541 folds the cardboard cover on one side of the cover-folding cylinder. The cover-folding joint 543 is provided on the telescopic rod of the cover-folding cylinder 542. The cover-folding plate 544 is hinged to the cover-folding joint 543 and is set at a right angle. When folding the cardboard cover, initially, the cover-folding plate abuts against the fixed baffle 541, causing the cover-folding plate 544 to swing at a certain angle. As the cover-folding cylinder 542 pushes out the cover-folding plate 544, the angle of the cover-folding plate 544 gradually changes. When one of the right-angled sides of the cover-folding plate 544 abuts against the tile, the other right-angled side bends the cover to form a 90° angle with the side, completing the folding of the cover.

[0046] Furthermore, the folding mechanism also includes two cardboard side guide plates 56, which are respectively arranged opposite to each other on the two second slides 51, and are located at the end of the second slides 51 near the first slide 41. The distance between the two side guide plates gradually decreases from the direction near the corner mounting section 231 of the packaging conveyor belt 23 to the direction away from the corner mounting section 231. When the cardboard passes through the two side guide plates, the side of the cardboard changes from being in the same plane as the base plate to being slightly curved upwards.

[0047] Furthermore, the folding mechanism also includes a cardboard cover assembly 57 disposed above the carton folding section 232 of the packaging conveyor belt 23. The cardboard cover assembly 57 is used to fold the cardboard cover by 90°. Specifically, the cardboard cover assembly 57 includes a pressing cylinder and a swing rod. The extension rod of the pressing cylinder is hinged to the swing rod. The extension rod of the pressing cylinder extends to drive the swing rod to swing toward the cardboard, folding the cardboard cover into a state parallel to the base plate.

[0048] like Figure 9 The diagram shown is a reference diagram of the cardboard structure used in the high-speed ceramic tile packaging machine 100 of this application. When folding the cardboard box, the side of the cardboard is first folded to 90° with the bottom plate, then the four small covers are folded to 90° with the side, then the front and rear covers are folded to 90° with the bottom plate, then the upper half of the front and rear covers is folded inward at 90° so that the upper half of the front and rear covers is parallel to the bottom plate, and finally the top cover is folded inward at 90° so that the top cover is parallel to the bottom plate.

[0049] When the folding mechanism of this application folds the cardboard into a box, the side guide plate 56 of the cardboard, located at the front end of the second slide table 51, guides the side plate of the cardboard into a slightly bent state. Then, the side pressing assembly 53 presses the side of the cardboard into a state of 90° with the bottom plate. Next, the small cover folding cylinder 542 of the lower cover folding assembly pushes out the small cover plate 544 to fold the small cover into a state of 90° with the side of the cardboard. Then, the front and rear cover folding assembly 55 folds the front and rear of the cardboard into a state of 90° with the bottom plate. Then, the upper half of the front and rear cover of the cardboard is folded inward by 90° so that the upper half of the front and rear cover is parallel to the bottom plate. Finally, the upper cover folding assembly 57 presses down to fold the upper cover of the cardboard inward by 90° so that the upper cover is parallel to the bottom plate.

[0050] During tile packaging, the cardboard placement device 30 places the cardboard on the paper placement section 221 of the paper conveyor belt, and then the paper feeding section 222 feeds the cardboard to the paperboard junction, so that the cardboard is placed at the bottom of the tile. The tile and cardboard enter the packaging conveyor belt 23. On the corner mounting section 231 of the packaging conveyor belt 23, the corner placement device 40 moves synchronously to place the corners at the four corners of the tile. After the corners are placed, the corner placement device 40 quickly returns to the origin to prepare for the corner placement operation of the next stack of tiles. When the tile with the corners placed enters the carton folding section 232 of the packaging conveyor belt 23, the folding device 50 moves synchronously to fold the cardboard into a carton. After the carton is folded, the folding device 50 quickly returns to the origin to prepare for the carton folding operation of the next stack of tiles.

[0051] The high-speed tile packaging machine 100 of this application has a corner-loading mechanism 42 for inserting and wrapping the tiles mounted on a first slide table 41 slidably connected to the frame 10, and a folding mechanism for folding cardboard into cartons mounted on a folding slide table slidably connected to the frame 10. When packaging the tiles, the corner-loading mechanism 42 and the folding mechanism move synchronously with the tiles. That is, during packaging, the corner-loading mechanism 42 and the folding mechanism are stationary relative to the tiles. After packaging, the corner-loading mechanism 42 and the folding mechanism quickly return to the starting point to package the next stack of tiles. This arrangement ensures that the tiles do not need to stop during the conveying process, has good continuity, improves the tile packaging speed, and avoids the problem of the equipment's service life being affected by frequent start-stop.

[0052] Finally, it should be noted that the above descriptions are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features.
