Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to material receiving equipment, and more particularly to a block material receiving equipment. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous development and expansion of applications of permanent magnet motors, market demand for them is also increasing. As a key component of permanent magnet motors, the production scale of magnetic steel blocks is also expanding year by year.

[0003] The traditional production process of magnetic steel blocks requires a large amount of manual labor. This is especially true in the stages of feeding and collecting materials. Not only is the workload heavy and the efficiency low, but the working environment is also filled with noise and dust, which can cause significant harm to the health of workers who stay in this environment for extended periods. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a block material receiving device that has low labor intensity, high work efficiency and can reduce physical harm to workers.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by the present invention to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is as follows: a block material receiving device, comprising a control and processing system, a feeding conveying mechanism, a receiving positioning conveying mechanism, a receiving robot, a receiving turnover mechanism, an empty plate output mechanism, a receiving plate mechanism, an empty plate transfer mechanism, and an empty plate recycling trolley. The control and processing system is connected to the feeding conveying mechanism, the receiving positioning conveying mechanism, the receiving robot, the receiving turnover mechanism, the empty plate output mechanism, the receiving plate mechanism, and the empty plate transfer mechanism, respectively. The system controls the coordinated operation of the feeding conveyor, the receiving and positioning conveyor, the receiving robot, the receiving and turnover mechanism, the empty plate output mechanism, the receiving plate mechanism, and the empty plate transfer mechanism. The feeding conveyor transports the full-loaded plate (i.e., the full-loaded plate) from the previous process to the receiving and positioning conveyor. The receiving and positioning conveyor first positions the full-loaded plate transported by the feeding conveyor for the receiving robot to receive it. After the receiving robot completes its material collection, transforming the full-loaded pallet into an empty pallet without any square-shaped products, it then transports the empty pallet to the empty pallet output mechanism. The receiving robot, after the receiving positioning conveyor positions the full-loaded pallet conveyed by the feeding conveyor, transfers the square-shaped products from the full-loaded pallet to the receiving turnover mechanism, transforming the full-loaded pallet into an empty pallet. The receiving turnover mechanism receives the square-shaped products transferred by the receiving robot, and the empty pallet output mechanism... The empty plates transported by the material receiving and positioning conveyor are transported to a preset empty plate receiving location. The empty plate receiving mechanism is used to transfer the empty plates from the preset empty plate receiving location to the designated location for stacking, forming a stack of empty plates. The empty plate transfer mechanism is used to transfer the stack of empty plates from the receiving mechanism to the designated location when the number of empty plates in the stack reaches a preset number. After the number of empty plates in the stack at the designated location reaches a preset number, all the stacks of empty plates at the designated location are transferred to the empty plate recycling trolley for workers to pick up.

[0006] The feeding and conveying mechanism includes a roller conveyor, a carrier plate guiding device, and a first sensor. The first sensor is located at the front end of the roller conveyor and is connected to the control and processing system. The first sensor is used to detect whether the carrier plate enters the roller conveyor and generates a corresponding signal to send to the control and processing system. The carrier plate guiding device includes a guiding block, a first cylinder, a cylinder mounting base plate, a second cylinder, and a guiding device mounting plate. The guiding block consists of a block-shaped body and a buffer layer attached to the top of the block-shaped body. The buffer layer is made of a flexible material. The first cylinder and the second cylinder are respectively connected to the control and processing system. The guiding device mounting plate is installed... Below the roller conveyor line and behind the first sensor, the second cylinder is mounted on the guide device mounting plate. The cylinder mounting base plate is located above the second cylinder and fixedly mounted on the end of the output rod of the second cylinder. The first cylinder is located above the cylinder mounting base plate and fixedly mounted on it. The guide block is located above the first cylinder and fixedly mounted on the end of the output rod of the first cylinder. The first cylinder drives the guide block to move left and right. The second cylinder drives the cylinder mounting base plate, the first cylinder, and the guide block to move up and down synchronously. When the second cylinder drives the cylinder... When the mounting base plate, the first cylinder, and the guide block move upwards synchronously, the guide block extends from the gap between two adjacent rollers in the roller conveyor to above the roller conveyor, blocking the full-loaded pallet being conveyed on the roller conveyor. The front end face of the guide block is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the roller conveyor. The control processing system is preset with a guidance time, a first delay time, and a second delay time. In the initial state, the second cylinder is in the retracted state, at which time the upper end face of the guide block is lower than the upper surface of the roller conveyor. When the control processing system controls the roller conveyor to enter the working state, the roller conveyor begins to convey material. When the full-loaded pallet... When the load enters the roller conveyor, it transports the full-loaded plate from front to back. When the full-loaded plate enters the sensing area of ​​the first sensor, the sensor is triggered, generating a corresponding signal and sending it to the control and processing system. At this time, the control and processing system starts timing and simultaneously controls the second cylinder to extend. The output rod of the second cylinder extends upwards, causing the guide block to extend upwards above the roller conveyor. The roller conveyor then transports the full-loaded plate to the guide block, where it is blocked. If the full-loaded plate is in a straight position, its rear end face will be in contact with the front end face of the guide block.During the subsequent continuous conveying process of the roller conveyor, the full-loaded plate remains straight. If the full-loaded plate is tilted, a point on its rear end face will initially contact the front end face of the guide block. During the subsequent continuous conveying process, due to the unilateral force on the full-loaded plate, it is eventually guided to a straight state. At this point, the rear end face of the full-loaded plate is in contact with the front end face of the guide block. When the current timing of the control system equals the preset guidance time, the control system restarts timing and simultaneously controls the second cylinder to retract, resetting its output rod. The guide block returns to its initial state. The straight full-loaded plate then continues to be conveyed forward on the roller conveyor. When the current timing of the control system reaches the first delay time, the full-loaded plate will be directly above the guide block. The control system restarts timing and simultaneously controls the second cylinder to extend, resuming the guide block's position. The guide block moves upward, lifting the full-load plate above it and detaching it from the roller conveyor. Then, the control system controls the first cylinder to extend, driving the guide block to move towards the left or right side of the roller conveyor as a reference edge to a preset position. If the full-load plate is already in contact with the reference edge of the roller conveyor, it remains in its current position, and the full-load plate is now straight and in the preset accurate position. If it is not in contact with the reference edge of the roller conveyor, it will move with the guide block until it contacts the reference edge and then stop moving. At this point, the full-load plate is straight and in the preset accurate position. When the control system's current timer reaches the second delay time, the control system first controls the second cylinder to retract, then controls the first cylinder to retract. The guide block returns to its initial state, and the full-load plate falls back onto the roller conveyor and continues moving.

[0007] The receiving and positioning conveyor mechanism is located behind the feeding conveyor mechanism. The receiving and positioning conveyor mechanism includes a speed-multiplying chain, a carrier plate positioning device, and a second sensor. The second sensor and the speed-multiplying chain are respectively connected to the control and processing system. The second sensor is used to detect whether the carrier plate enters the speed-multiplying chain and generates a corresponding signal to be sent to the control and processing system. The front end of the speed-multiplying chain is connected to the rear end of the roller conveyor. The roller conveyor can transfer its carrier plate onto the speed-multiplying chain. The control and processing system can control the speed-multiplying chain to move or stop moving. A third extension is preset in the control and processing system. The carrier plate positioning device is installed below the double-speed chain. The carrier plate positioning device includes two reference blocks, two first support plates, a support plate base plate, a third cylinder, a top block, a fourth cylinder, a fifth cylinder, a blocking cylinder bracket, a sixth cylinder, a seventh cylinder, two first positioning blocks, and two side cylinder mounting brackets. The third, fourth, fifth, sixth, and seventh cylinders are respectively connected to the control and processing system. The fifth cylinder is a blocking cylinder. The third cylinder is installed below the double-speed chain, and the support plate base plate is located above the third cylinder and installed on the input of the third cylinder. At the end of the output rod, two first support plates are spaced apart on the left and right above the support plate base plate and are both fixed to the support plate base plate. Two reference blocks correspond one-to-one with the two first support plates. In a corresponding reference block and a first support plate, the reference block is located above the first support plate and fixed to the rear end of the first support plate. The front end faces of the two reference blocks are both planes perpendicular to the transmission direction of the double-speed chain. The fourth cylinder is mounted on the support plate base plate, and the top material block is mounted on the output rod of the fourth cylinder. The fourth cylinder is used to drive the top material block to move back and forth. The third cylinder is used to drive the support plate base plate, the two first support plates, the two reference blocks, and the... The fourth cylinder and the top block move up and down synchronously. When the two first support plates, two reference blocks, and the top block move upward, they can extend above the double-speed chain. The blocking cylinder bracket is installed below the double-speed chain. The fifth cylinder is fixed on the blocking cylinder bracket and is located in the middle area of ​​the double-speed chain in the left-right direction. When the fifth cylinder is in the extended state, its output rod is higher than the upper end face of the double-speed chain. When the fifth cylinder is in the retracted state, its output rod is not higher than the upper end face of the double-speed chain. The fifth cylinder is located behind the fourth cylinder, and the fourth cylinder is located in front of the two reference blocks.Two side cylinder mounting brackets are fixed to the left and right sides of the double-speed chain, respectively. The sixth and seventh cylinders are mounted on the two side cylinder mounting brackets and are opposite each other. Two first positioning blocks are mounted on the output rods of the sixth and seventh cylinders, respectively. The sixth and seventh cylinders drive the two first positioning blocks to move towards each other in the left-right direction. When both the sixth and seventh cylinders are in the extended state, the two first positioning blocks are located above the double-speed chain, and the distance between them is equal to the dimension of the carrier plate in the left-right direction when it is transported on the double-speed chain. In the initial state, the upper surfaces of the two reference blocks and the upper surfaces of the two first support plates are lower than the upper surface of the double-speed chain. The third, fourth, sixth, and seventh cylinders are all in the retracted state, and the fifth cylinder is in the extended state.

[0008] The receiving robot is positioned behind the receiving and positioning conveying mechanism. The receiving robot includes a four-axis robot, a robot support, a first vacuum suction cup, and a vacuum pump. The four-axis robot is mounted on the robot support and is connected to the control and processing system. The first vacuum suction cup is mounted on the four-axis robot and can move up and down under the drive of the four-axis robot. The vacuum pump is connected to the first vacuum suction cup via an air pipe to provide suction force to the first vacuum suction cup. The vacuum pump is also connected to the control and processing system. When the full-loaded carrier plate is positioned at the receiving and positioning conveying mechanism and reaches a preset positioning point, the control and processing system first controls the four-axis robot to move the first vacuum suction cup onto the full-loaded carrier plate at the preset positioning point. At this point, the first vacuum suction cup is 0.8mm to 1mm away from the upper surface of the square material product in the full-load carrier plate. The control system then controls the vacuum pump to start working, providing suction to the first vacuum suction cup. The first vacuum suction cup, with the suction force, adsorbs the square material product from the full-load carrier plate onto it. The control system then controls the four-axis robot to move the first vacuum suction cup, which holds the square material product, to a pre-set empty turnover box at the material collection and turnover mechanism. The control system then controls the vacuum pump to stop working, and the first vacuum suction cup loses its suction force. The square material product previously adsorbed on the first vacuum suction cup falls from the suction cup into the turnover box. Afterward, the control system controls the four-axis robot to reset, and simultaneously, the material collection robot completes one material collection operation.

[0009] The empty plate output mechanism is located behind the receiving and positioning conveyor mechanism. The empty plate output mechanism includes a roller conveyor for conveying empty plates, a third sensor, a fourth sensor, and a second positioning block. The roller conveyor for conveying empty plates is called the empty plate output roller line. The empty plate output roller line is connected to the control and processing system, which can control the opening and closing of the empty plate output roller line. The third sensor and the fourth sensor are respectively connected to the control and processing system. The third sensor is located at the foremost inlet of the empty plate output roller line to sense whether an empty plate is being conveyed to the empty plate output mechanism and generates a corresponding signal output to the control and processing system. The second positioning block is located at the rear end of the empty plate output roller line. The fourth sensor is located below the second positioning block to sense whether an empty plate has arrived at or left the empty plate output mechanism and generates a corresponding signal output to the control and processing system. When there is no empty plate... When the empty plate output roller conveyor enters the empty plate output roller conveyor, it is in a stopped state under the control of the control and processing system. After the receiving robot completes one receiving action, the empty plate on the receiving positioning conveyor mechanism is conveyed to the front entrance of the empty plate output roller conveyor via the speed-double chain. The empty plate enters the sensing area of ​​the third sensor and is sensed by the third sensor. The third sensor is triggered to generate a corresponding signal and send it to the control and processing system. The control and processing system controls the empty plate output roller conveyor to start working, and the empty plate conveyed there by the speed-double chain continues to be conveyed from front to back. When the empty plate is conveyed to contact the second positioning block, it enters the sensing area of ​​the fourth sensor and is sensed by the fourth sensor. The fourth sensor is triggered to generate a corresponding signal and send it to the control and processing system. At this time, the control and processing system controls the empty plate output roller conveyor to stop. At this time, the empty plate reaches the preset empty plate receiving position at the empty plate output mechanism.

[0010] The empty plate output roller line is located on either the left or right side of its rear end. The receiving plate mechanism includes a first profile support, an empty plate left-right moving mechanism, and an empty plate up-down moving mechanism. The left-right moving mechanism and the up-down moving mechanism are respectively mounted on the first profile support. They are connected to the control processing system. Under the control of the control processing system, the left-right moving mechanism first picks up the empty plate from the preset empty plate receiving point at the empty plate output mechanism, then moves the picked-up empty plate left-right to above the up-down moving mechanism, and stacks it on top of the empty plate. The empty plate moving mechanism forms a stack of empty plates. This mechanism, under the control of the control processing system, moves vertically to adjust the position of the stacked empty plates. The empty plate moving mechanism includes a linear motion module, a first drive motor, m second vacuum suction cups, a suction cup mounting plate, an eighth cylinder, a loading / unloading plate cylinder mounting plate, a linear motion module mounting plate, a vacuum generator, and a vacuum generator bracket, where m is an integer greater than or equal to 10.

The first drive motor is mounted on the linear motion module to provide power to it. The linear motion module is mounted on the linear motion module mounting plate, which is fixed to the first profile bracket. m second vacuum suction cups are located below the suction cup mounting plate and are evenly spaced on the lower end face of the suction cup mounting plate. The suction cup mounting plate is fixed to the end of the output rod of the eighth cylinder. The eighth cylinder drives the suction cup mounting plate and the m second vacuum suction cups to move up and down. The eighth cylinder is mounted on the take-up and put-down carrier cylinder mounting plate. The cylinder mounting plate is installed on the linear motion module. When the first drive motor provides power to the linear motion module under the control of the control processing system, the linear motion module will drive the loading and unloading plate cylinder mounting plate to move in the left and right direction. The vacuum generator is connected to m second vacuum suction cups through air pipes. The vacuum generator is installed on the vacuum generator bracket, and the vacuum generator bracket is installed on the loading and unloading plate cylinder mounting plate.

The second drive motor, the fifth sensor, and the sixth sensor are respectively connected to the control processing system. The fifth sensor and the sixth sensor are respectively mounted on the first profile bracket, with the fifth sensor located above the sixth sensor. The fifth sensor senses the top empty plate of the stacked empty plates at the receiving plate mechanism and generates a corresponding signal to be sent to the control processing system. The sixth sensor senses the bottom empty plate of the stacked empty plates at the receiving plate mechanism and generates a corresponding signal to be sent to the control processing system. The second drive motor is mounted on the motor bracket, and the motor bracket is mounted on the upper... On the lower component mounting plate, the first pulley is mounted on the output shaft of the second drive motor, the second pulley is mounted on the first lead screw, and the first synchronous belt connects the first pulley and the second pulley. Two material support plates are respectively mounted on the upper and lower fixed plates, which are mounted on the first linear guide rail and simultaneously connected to the first lead screw. The second drive motor realizes the up-and-down movement and positioning of the upper and lower fixed plates and the two material support plates mounted on the first lead screw through the first pulley, the second pulley, and the first synchronous belt. The first linear guide rail is mounted on the upper and lower component mounting plates, which are mounted on the first profile bracket. In the initial state, the two material support plates are in the preset highest position. When the empty plate left-right moving mechanism moves above the empty plate up-and-down moving mechanism, the empty plate will be located directly above the two material support plates.

The tenth sensor is installed at the top of the lifting worktable profile frame. The receiving roller conveyor is installed at the end of the output rod of the tenth cylinder. The tenth cylinder drives the receiving roller conveyor to move up and down. The tenth cylinder is installed on the lifting worktable profile frame. On the frame, the receiving trolley includes two roller conveyor lines, an eleventh sensor, and a twelfth sensor. The two roller conveyor lines are arranged vertically, with the upper roller conveyor line referred to as the upper layer roller conveyor line and the lower roller conveyor line referred to as the lower layer roller conveyor line.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this invention lie in that it constructs a block material receiving device by means of a control processing system, a feeding conveyor mechanism, a receiving positioning conveyor mechanism, a receiving robot, a receiving turnover mechanism, an empty plate output mechanism, a receiving plate mechanism, an empty plate transfer mechanism, and an empty plate recycling trolley. When receiving block materials, the control processing system coordinates the feeding conveyor mechanism, the receiving positioning conveyor mechanism, the receiving robot, the receiving turnover mechanism, the empty plate output mechanism, the receiving plate mechanism, and the empty plate transfer mechanism. The feeding conveyor mechanism transports the full-loaded block material product tray (i.e., the full-load tray) from the previous process to the receiving positioning conveyor mechanism. The receiving positioning conveyor mechanism first positions the full-load tray transported by the feeding conveyor mechanism for the receiving robot to receive. After the receiving robot completes the receiving, turning the full-load tray into an empty tray without any block material products, it then transports the empty tray to the empty plate output mechanism. The receiving robot operates within the receiving positioning conveyor... After positioning the full-loaded pallet conveyed by the feeding conveyor, the block material products on the full-loaded pallet are transferred to the receiving and turnover mechanism, turning the full-loaded pallet into an empty pallet without any block material products. The receiving and turnover mechanism receives the block material products transferred to it by the receiving robot. The empty pallet output mechanism transports the empty pallets conveyed by the receiving positioning conveyor to the preset empty pallet receiving location. The receiving pallet mechanism transfers the empty pallets from the preset empty pallet receiving location to its location for stacking, forming a stack of empty pallets. When the number of empty pallets in the stack of empty pallets at the receiving pallet mechanism reaches a preset number, the empty pallet transfer mechanism transfers the stack of empty pallets at the receiving pallet mechanism to its location. After the number of empty pallets in the stack of empty pallets at its location reaches a preset number, all the stacks of empty pallets at its location are transferred to the empty pallet recycling trolley for workers to pick up. This achieves automated receiving of block material products, with low manual intervention, low labor intensity, high work efficiency, and reduced physical harm to workers.

[0026] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0027] Example 1: As Figure 1As shown, a block material receiving device includes a control and processing system, a feeding conveying mechanism 1, a receiving robot 2, a receiving plate mechanism 3, a receiving turnover mechanism 4, an empty plate output mechanism 10, a receiving positioning conveying mechanism 11, an empty plate transfer mechanism 8, and an empty plate recycling trolley 7. The control and processing system is connected to the feeding conveying mechanism 1, the receiving positioning conveying mechanism 11, the receiving robot 2, the receiving turnover mechanism 4, the empty plate output mechanism 10, the receiving plate mechanism 3, and the empty plate transfer mechanism 8, respectively. The control and processing system is used to control the feeding conveying... Mechanism 1, receiving and positioning conveyor mechanism 11, receiving robot 2, receiving and turnover mechanism 4, empty plate output mechanism 10, receiving plate mechanism 3, and empty plate transfer mechanism 8 work together. The feeding conveyor mechanism 1 is used to transport the full-loaded plate 87 (loaded from the previous process) to the receiving and positioning conveyor mechanism 11. The receiving and positioning conveyor mechanism 11 first positions the full-loaded plate 87 transported by the feeding conveyor mechanism 1 for receiving robot 2 to collect, and then completes the collection by the receiving robot 2. After the full-loaded pallet 87 is transformed into an empty pallet without any square material products, it is then conveyed to the empty pallet output mechanism 10. The receiving robot 2, after the receiving positioning conveyor 11 positions the full-loaded pallet 87 conveyed by the feeding conveyor 1, transfers the square material products from the full-loaded pallet 87 to the receiving turnover mechanism 4, transforming the full-loaded pallet 87 into an empty pallet without any square material products. The receiving turnover mechanism 4 receives the square material products transferred there by the receiving robot 2, and the empty pallet output mechanism 10 is used to process the collected materials. The positioning conveyor 11 transports the empty plates to the preset empty plate collection point. The empty plate collection mechanism 3 is used to transfer the empty plates from the preset empty plate collection point to the empty plate collection point for stacking, forming a stack of empty plates. The empty plate transfer mechanism 8 is used to transfer the stack of empty plates from the empty plate collection mechanism 3 to the empty plate collection point when the number of empty plates in the stack of empty plates at the empty plate collection mechanism 3 reaches a preset number. After the number of empty plates in the stack of empty plates at the empty plate collection point reaches a preset number, all the stack of empty plates at the empty plate collection point is transferred to the empty plate recycling trolley 7 for workers to pick up.

[0028] In the block material receiving equipment of this embodiment, the feeding conveying mechanism 1, the receiving plate mechanism 3, the receiving turnover mechanism 4, the empty plate output mechanism 10, the receiving positioning conveying mechanism 11, the empty plate transfer mechanism 8, and the empty plate recycling trolley 7 can be set as a unit. Two sets of units are set up, and the two sets of units share the receiving robot 2. The receiving robot 2 completes the receiving of block materials in the two sets of units. At the same time, both sets of units output the collected block materials and empty plates, further improving the receiving efficiency.

[0029] In this embodiment, a block material receiving device is constructed by a control processing system, a feeding conveyor 1, a receiving positioning conveyor 11, a receiving robot 2, a receiving turnover mechanism 4, an empty plate output mechanism 10, a receiving plate mechanism 3, an empty plate transfer mechanism 8, and an empty plate recycling trolley 7. When receiving block materials, the control processing system controls the feeding conveyor 1, the receiving positioning conveyor 11, the receiving robot 2, the receiving turnover mechanism 4, the empty plate output mechanism 10, the receiving plate mechanism 3, and the empty plate transfer mechanism. 8. In collaborative operation, the feeding conveyor 1 transports the full-loaded pallet 87 (loaded with block material products) from the previous process to the receiving and positioning conveyor 11. The receiving and positioning conveyor 11 first positions the full-loaded pallet 87 transported by the feeding conveyor 1 for the receiving robot 2 to collect. After the receiving robot 2 completes the collection, turning the full-loaded pallet 87 into an empty pallet without block material products, it then transports the empty pallet to the empty pallet output mechanism 10. The receiving robot 2, in its receiving and positioning... After positioning the full-loaded pallet 87 conveyed by the feeding conveyor 1, the conveying mechanism 11 transfers the block material products at the full-loaded pallet 87 to the receiving and turnover mechanism 4, turning the full-loaded pallet 87 into an empty pallet without any block material products. The receiving and turnover mechanism 4 receives the block material products transferred to it by the receiving robot 2. The empty pallet output mechanism 10 conveys the empty pallet conveyed by the receiving and positioning conveyor 11 to the preset empty pallet receiving position. The receiving pallet mechanism 3 transfers the empty pallet from the preset empty pallet receiving position to its designated location. The stacks are formed into a stack of empty plates. When the number of empty plates in the stack of empty plates at the receiving plate mechanism 3 reaches a preset number, the empty plate transfer mechanism 8 transfers the stack of empty plates at the receiving plate mechanism 3 to another location. After the number of empty plates in the stack at that location reaches a preset number, all the empty plates in that location are transferred to the empty plate recycling trolley 7 for workers to pick up. This achieves automated material collection of block products with low manual intervention, low labor intensity, high work efficiency, and reduced physical harm to workers.

[0030] Example 2: This example is basically the same as Example 1, except that: in this example, as Figure 2 As shown, the feeding conveyor mechanism 1 includes a roller conveyor line 12, a carrier plate guiding device 14, and a first sensor 13. The first sensor 13 is located at the front end of the roller conveyor line 12 and is connected to the control and processing system. The first sensor 13 is used to sense whether the carrier plate enters the roller conveyor line 12 and generates a corresponding signal to send to the control and processing system; Figure 3As shown, the carrier plate guiding device 14 includes a guiding block 15, a first cylinder 16, a cylinder mounting base plate 17, a second cylinder 18, and a guiding device mounting plate 19. The guiding block 15 consists of a block-shaped body and a buffer layer attached to the top of the block-shaped body. The buffer layer is made of a flexible material. The first cylinder 16 and the second cylinder 18 are respectively connected to the control and processing system. The guiding device mounting plate 19 is installed below the roller conveyor line 12 and behind the first sensor 13. The second cylinder 18 is mounted on the guiding device mounting plate 19, and the cylinder mounting base plate 17 is located on the second cylinder 18. Above cylinder 8, and fixedly installed at the end of the output rod of cylinder 18, cylinder 16 is located above cylinder mounting base plate 17 and fixed on cylinder mounting base plate 17. Guide block 15 is located above cylinder 16 and fixed at the end of the output rod of cylinder 16. Cylinder 16 is used to drive guide block 15 to move left and right, and cylinder 18 is used to drive cylinder mounting base plate 17, cylinder 16 and guide block 15 to move up and down synchronously. When cylinder 18 drives cylinder mounting base plate 17, cylinder 16 and guide block 15 to move up synchronously, cylinder 16 is used to drive cylinder mounting base plate 17, cylinder 16 and guide block 15 to move up synchronously. During operation, the guide block 15 extends from the gap between two adjacent rollers in the roller conveyor 12 to the top of the roller conveyor 12, blocking the full-load carrier plate 87 conveyed on the roller conveyor 12. The front end face of the guide block 15 is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the roller conveyor 12. The control and processing system is preset with a guidance time, a first delay time, and a second delay time. In the initial state, the second cylinder 18 is in the retracted state, at which time the upper end face of the guide block 15 is lower than the upper surface of the roller conveyor 12. The control and processing system controls the roller conveyor 12 to enter the working state. In operation, the roller conveyor 12 begins transport. When a full-loaded carrier plate 87 enters the roller conveyor 12, it transports the plate from front to back. When the full-loaded carrier plate 87 enters the sensing area of ​​the first sensor 13, the sensor 13 senses the plate and is triggered, generating a corresponding signal and sending it to the control processing system. At this time, the control processing system starts timing and simultaneously controls the second cylinder 18 to extend. The output rod of the second cylinder 18 extends upward, causing the guide block 15 to extend upward above the roller conveyor 12. Figure 4As shown, the roller conveyor 12 transports the full-load carrier plate 87 to the guide block 15. At this time, the full-load carrier plate 87 will be blocked by the guide block 15. If the full-load carrier plate 87 is in a straight state, its rear end face will be in contact with the front end face of the guide block 15. During the subsequent continuous conveying process of the roller conveyor 12, the full-load carrier plate 87 remains in a straight state. If the full-load carrier plate 87 is in an inclined state, a certain point on the rear end face of the full-load carrier plate 87 will first contact the front end face of the guide block 15. During the subsequent continuous conveying process of the roller conveyor 12, due to the full-load carrier plate 87... 7. Under unilateral force, the material is eventually guided to a straight state. At this point, the rear end face of the full-load plate 87 is in contact with the front end face of the guide block 15. When the current timing of the control system equals the preset guidance time, the control system restarts the timing and simultaneously controls the second cylinder 18 to enter the retracted state. The output rod of the second cylinder 18 resets, and the guide block 15 returns to its initial state. At this point, the straight full-load plate 87 continues to be conveyed forward on the roller conveyor 12. When the current timing of the control system reaches the first delay time, the full-load plate 87 will be in contact with the guide block 15. Directly above, the control system restarts the timing and simultaneously controls the second cylinder 18 to extend. The guide block 15 moves upward, lifting the full-load carrier plate 87 above it, causing the full-load carrier plate 87 to detach from the roller conveyor line 12. Then, the control system controls the first cylinder 16 to extend, driving the guide block 15 to move towards the left or right side of the roller conveyor line 12 as the reference edge 88 to a preset position. If the current full-load carrier plate 87 is already in contact with the reference edge 88 of the roller conveyor line 12, the current position remains unchanged, and the full-load carrier plate 87 has been guided. The guide block 15 moves to the preset accurate position in a straight state. If it does not contact the reference edge 88 of the roller conveyor 12, it will move with the guide block 15 until it contacts the reference edge 88 of the roller conveyor 12 and then stop moving. At this time, the full material carrier plate 87 has been guided and is in the preset accurate position in a straight state. When the current timer of the control processing system reaches the second delay time, the control processing system first controls the second cylinder 18 to enter the retraction state, and then controls the first cylinder 16 to enter the retraction state. The guide block 15 returns to the initial state, and the full material carrier plate 87 falls onto the roller conveyor 12 and continues to move.

[0031] In this embodiment, the carrier plate has a rectangular structure on the outside. When the carrier plate is straightened to a flat state, its length direction is along the front-to-back direction and its width direction is along the left-to-right direction.

[0032] In this embodiment, the feeding conveyor 1 uses a step-by-step guiding method via the carrier plate guiding device 14 to guide the full-load carrier plate 87 on the roller conveyor 12. First, the tilted full-load carrier plate 87 is guided to a straight state. Then, the straight but offset full-load carrier plate 87 is guided to a preset accurate position. This avoids multi-directional changes that occur when simultaneously guiding to a straight state and accurate position, significantly reducing the impact force on the full-load carrier plate 87 during the guiding process. This prevents the square material inside the full-load carrier plate 87 from being shaken out or disordered, thus avoiding affecting the operating accuracy of the subsequent material handling robot. Furthermore, when guiding the full-load carrier plate 87 to a straight state... During the process of guiding the offset full-load plate 87 to the preset accurate position, the full-load plate 87 directly contacts the buffer layer. The buffer layer buffers the impact force on the full-load plate 87 during its movement, preventing the internal blocks from being shaken out or disordered. Moreover, when the full-load plate 87 needs to move to the preset accurate position under the guidance of the guide block 15, the friction between the buffer layer and the full-load plate 87 is greater, which can effectively prevent slippage between the two and affect the movement effect. This ensures that after the full-load plate 87 passes through the feeding conveyor 1, it can enter the receiving positioning conveyor 11 in a straight and neat position.

[0033] Example 3: This example is basically the same as Example 2, except that: in this example, as Figure 5As shown, the receiving and positioning conveyor mechanism 11 is located behind the feeding conveyor mechanism 1. The receiving and positioning conveyor mechanism 11 includes a double-speed chain 20, a carrier plate positioning device 21, and a second sensor 22. The second sensor 22 and the double-speed chain 20 are respectively connected to the control and processing system. The second sensor 22 is used to sense whether the carrier plate enters the double-speed chain 20 and generates a corresponding signal to send to the control and processing system. The front end of the double-speed chain 20 is connected to the rear end of the roller conveyor. The roller conveyor can transfer the carrier plate on it to the double-speed chain 20. The control and processing system can control the double-speed chain 20 to transmit or stop transmission. A third delay time is preset in the control and processing system. The carrier plate positioning device 21 is installed on the double-speed chain 20. Below the chain 20, the carrier plate positioning device 21 includes two reference blocks 23, two first support plates 24, a support plate base plate 25, a third cylinder 26, a top block 27, a fourth cylinder 28, a fifth cylinder 29, a blocking cylinder bracket 30, a sixth cylinder 31, a seventh cylinder 32, two first positioning blocks 33, and two side cylinder mounting brackets. The third cylinder 26, fourth cylinder 28, fifth cylinder 29, sixth cylinder 31, and seventh cylinder 32 are respectively connected to the control and processing system. The fifth cylinder 29 is a blocking cylinder. The third cylinder 26 is installed below the double-speed chain 20, and the support plate base plate 25 is located above the third cylinder 26 and installed at the end of the output rod of the third cylinder 26. One pallet 24 is spaced apart above the pallet base plate 25 and fixed to it. Two reference blocks 23 correspond one-to-one with the two first pallets 24. In the corresponding reference block 23 and one first pallet 24, the reference block 23 is located above the first pallet 24 and fixed to the rear end of the first pallet 24. The front ends of the two reference blocks 23 are perpendicular to the transmission direction of the double-speed chain 20. A fourth cylinder 28 is mounted on the pallet base plate 25, and a top material block 27 is mounted on the output rod of the fourth cylinder 28. The fourth cylinder 28 is used to drive the top material block 27 to move back and forth. A third cylinder 26 is used to drive the pallet base plate 25, the two first pallets 24, and the two... The reference block 23, the fourth cylinder 28, and the top block 27 move up and down synchronously. When the two first support plates 24, the two reference blocks 23, and the top block 27 move upward, they can extend above the double-speed chain 20. The blocking cylinder bracket 30 is installed below the double-speed chain 20. The fifth cylinder 29 is fixed on the blocking cylinder bracket 30 and is located in the middle area of ​​the double-speed chain 20 in the left-right direction. When the fifth cylinder 29 is in the extended state, its output rod is higher than the upper end face of the double-speed chain 20. When the fifth cylinder 29 is in the retracted state, its output rod is not higher than the upper end face of the double-speed chain 20. The fifth cylinder 29 is located behind the fourth cylinder 28, and the fourth cylinder 28 is located in front of the two reference blocks 23.Two side cylinder mounting brackets are fixed to the left and right sides of the double-speed chain 20, respectively. The sixth cylinder 31 and the seventh cylinder 32 are mounted on the two side cylinder mounting brackets and are opposite each other. Two first positioning blocks 33 are mounted on the output rods of the sixth cylinder 31 and the seventh cylinder 32, respectively. The sixth cylinder 31 and the seventh cylinder 32 drive the two first positioning blocks 33 to move towards each other in the left-right direction. When both the sixth cylinder 31 and the seventh cylinder 32 are in the extended state, the two first positioning blocks 33 are located above the double-speed chain 20, and the distance between them is equal to the dimension of the carrier plate in the left-right direction when it is transported on the double-speed chain. In the initial state, the upper surfaces of the two reference blocks 23 and the upper surfaces of the two first support plates 24 are lower than the upper surface of the double-speed chain 20. The third cylinder 26, the fourth cylinder 28, the sixth cylinder 31, and the seventh cylinder 32 are all in the retracted state, and the fifth cylinder 29 is in the extended state.

[0034] In this embodiment, after the full-load carrier plate 87 passes through the feeding conveyor mechanism 1, it is conveyed to the speed-multiplying chain in a straight and neat position. The speed-multiplying chain 20 continues to convey the full-load carrier plate 87 from front to back. When the full-load carrier plate 87 is conveyed to the sensing area of ​​the second sensor 22, the second sensor 22 senses the full-load carrier plate 87 and is triggered to generate a corresponding signal and send it to the control processing system. At the same time, the full-load carrier plate 87 is blocked by the fifth cylinder 29 and enters above the two first pallets 24 and behind the top material block 27. The control processing system first controls the third cylinder 26 to enter the extended state. When the output rod of cylinder 26 extends, the two first support plates 24, the two reference blocks 23, and the top material block 27 move upwards above the speed-multiplying chain 20. The two first support plates 24 lift the full-load plate 87, causing it to leave the speed-multiplying chain 20 and separate from the fifth cylinder 29. Then, the control system controls the fifth cylinder 29 to enter the retracted state and controls the fourth cylinder 28 to enter the extended state. The top material block 27 moves backwards, pushing the full-load plate 87 into contact with the two reference blocks 23. The top material block 27 and the two reference blocks 23 clamp the full-load plate 87 together, achieving full-load loading. After the plate 87 is positioned front and back, the control system controls the sixth cylinder 31 and the seventh cylinder 32 to extend, causing the two first positioning blocks 33 to clamp the full-load plate 87 left and right, thus achieving left and right positioning of the full-load plate 87. At this time, the full-load plate 87 completes its positioning at the receiving and positioning conveying mechanism 11, and the full-load plate 87 is at the preset positioning point of the receiving and positioning conveying mechanism 11. Then, the control system controls the receiving robot 2 to perform the receiving action, transferring the block material products in the full-load plate 87 to the receiving and turnover mechanism 4. After the product transfer is completed, the full-loaded carrier plate 87 becomes an empty carrier plate. The control and processing system controls the receiving robot 2 to reset and starts timing again. At the same time, it controls the third cylinder 26, the fourth cylinder 28, the sixth cylinder 31 and the seventh cylinder 32 to reset back to the retracted state, so that the empty carrier plate falls onto the double-speed chain 20 and is continued to be transported from front to back to the empty carrier plate output mechanism 10. When the current timing of the control and processing system reaches the third delay time, the empty carrier plate has been transported to the position above the fifth cylinder 29. The control and processing system controls the fifth cylinder 29 to reset back to the extended state.

[0035] Example 4: This example is basically the same as Example 3, except that: in this example, as Figure 6As shown, the receiving robot 2 is positioned behind the receiving and positioning conveying mechanism 11. The receiving robot 2 includes a four-axis robot 34, a robot support 35, a first vacuum suction cup 36, and a vacuum pump 37. The four-axis robot 34 is mounted on the robot support 35 and is connected to the control and processing system. The first vacuum suction cup 36 is mounted on the four-axis robot 34 and can move up and down under the drive of the four-axis robot 34. The vacuum pump 37 is connected to the first vacuum suction cup 36 through an air pipe to provide suction for the first vacuum suction cup 36. The vacuum pump 37 is connected to the control and processing system. When the full-loaded carrier plate 87 is positioned at the receiving and positioning conveying mechanism 11 and is at the preset positioning point of the receiving and positioning conveying mechanism 11, the control and processing system first controls the four-axis robot 34 to move the first vacuum suction cup 36 to the full-loaded carrier plate at the preset positioning point of the receiving and positioning conveying mechanism 11. Above 87, at this time, there is a distance of 0.8mm to 1mm between the first vacuum suction cup 36 and the upper surface of the block material product in the full material carrier plate 87. Then, the control system controls the vacuum pump 37 to start working to provide suction for the first vacuum suction cup 36. The first vacuum suction cup 36 obtains suction and adsorbs the block material product in the full material carrier plate 87 onto it. Then, the control system controls the four-axis robot 34 to move the first vacuum suction cup 36 with the adsorbed block material product to the empty turnover box preset at the material collection and turnover mechanism 4. Then, the control system controls the vacuum pump 37 to stop working, the first vacuum suction cup 36 loses suction, and the block material product originally adsorbed on the first vacuum suction cup 36 falls from the first vacuum suction cup 36 into the turnover box. After that, the control system controls the four-axis robot 34 to reset. At the same time, the material collection robot 2 completes one material collection action.

[0036] Example 5: This example is basically the same as Example 4, except that: in this example, as Figure 7As shown, the empty plate output mechanism 10 is located behind the receiving and positioning conveyor mechanism 11. The empty plate output mechanism 10 includes a roller conveyor for conveying empty plates, a third sensor 39, a fourth sensor 40, and a second positioning block 41. The roller conveyor for conveying empty plates is referred to as the empty plate output roller line 38. The empty plate output roller line 38 is connected to the control processing system, which can control the empty plate output roller line 38 to start or stop. The third sensor 39 and the fourth sensor 40 are respectively connected to the control processing system. The third sensor 39 is located at the foremost inlet of the empty plate output roller line 38 and is used to sense whether an empty plate is being conveyed to the empty plate output mechanism 10, and generates a corresponding signal output to the control processing system. The second positioning block 41 is located at the rearmost end of the empty plate output roller line 38, and the fourth sensor 40 is located below the second positioning block 41 and is used to sense whether an empty plate has arrived at or left the empty plate output mechanism 10, and generates a corresponding signal output to the control processing system. In the processing system, when no empty plates enter the empty plate output roller line 38, the empty plate output roller line 38 is in a stopped state under the control of the control processing system. After the receiving robot 2 completes one receiving action, the empty plates on the receiving positioning conveyor mechanism 11 are conveyed to the front entrance of the empty plate output roller line 38 by the double-speed chain. The empty plates enter the sensing area of ​​the third sensor 39 and are sensed by the third sensor 39. The third sensor 39 is triggered to generate a corresponding signal and send it to the control processing system. The control processing system controls the empty plate output roller line 38 to start working and continue to transmit the empty plates conveyed there by the double-speed chain from front to back. When the empty plate is transmitted to contact the second positioning block 41, the empty plate enters the sensing area of ​​the fourth sensor 40 and is sensed by the fourth sensor 40. The fourth sensor 40 is triggered to generate a corresponding signal and send it to the control processing system. At this time, the control processing system controls the empty plate output roller line 38 to stop. At this time, the empty plates reach the preset empty plate receiving position at the empty plate output mechanism 10.

[0037] Example 6: This example is basically the same as Example 5, except that: in this example, as Figure 8As shown, the receiving plate mechanism 3 is installed on either the left or right side of the rear end of the empty plate output roller line. The receiving plate mechanism 3 includes a first profile support 42, an empty plate left-right moving mechanism 43, and an empty plate up-down moving mechanism 44. The empty plate left-right moving mechanism 43 and the empty plate up-down moving mechanism 44 are respectively installed on the first profile support 42. The empty plate left-right moving mechanism 43 and the empty plate up-down moving mechanism 44 are respectively connected to the control processing system. The empty plate left-right moving mechanism 43 is used to first pick up the empty plate at the preset empty plate receiving position at the empty plate output mechanism 10 under the control of the control processing system, and then move the picked-up empty plate in the left-right direction to above the empty plate up-down moving mechanism 44, and stack it on the empty plate up-down moving mechanism 44 to form a stack of empty plates. The empty plate up-down moving mechanism 44 is used to move in the up-down direction under the control of the control processing system to adjust the position of the stack of empty plates at that location; Figure 9 As shown, the empty plate left and right moving mechanism 43 includes a linear motion module 48, a first drive motor 49, ten second vacuum suction cups 50, a suction cup mounting plate 51, an eighth cylinder 52, a plate loading / unloading cylinder mounting plate 53, a linear motion module mounting plate 54, a vacuum generator 55, and a vacuum generator bracket 56. The first drive motor 49, the eighth cylinder 52, and the vacuum generator 55 are respectively connected to the control processing system. The control processing system has a preset fourth delay time. The first drive motor 49 is mounted on the linear motion module 48 to provide power to the linear motion module 48. The linear motion module 48 is mounted on the linear motion module mounting plate 54, which is fixed on the first profile bracket 42. The ten second vacuum suction cups 50 are located below the suction cup mounting plate 51 and are evenly spaced on the lower end face of the suction cup mounting plate 51. 51 is fixed to the end of the output rod of the eighth cylinder 52. The eighth cylinder 52 is used to drive the suction cup mounting plate 51 and the 10 second vacuum suction cups 50 to move up and down. The eighth cylinder 52 is mounted on the loading and unloading plate cylinder mounting plate 53, which is mounted on the linear motion module 48. When the first drive motor 49 provides power to the linear motion module 48 under the control of the control processing system, the linear motion module 48 will drive the loading and unloading plate cylinder mounting plate 53 to move in the left and right directions. The vacuum generator 55 is connected to the 10 second vacuum suction cups 50 through air pipes. The vacuum generator 55 is mounted on the vacuum generator bracket 56, which is mounted on the loading and unloading plate cylinder mounting plate 53. In the initial state, the 10 second vacuum suction cups 50 are above the second positioning block of the empty plate conveying mechanism, the eighth cylinder 52 is in the retracted state, and the vacuum generator 55 is in the non-working state. Figure 10As shown, the empty plate moving mechanism 44 includes a second drive motor 57, a motor bracket 58, a first pulley 59, a second pulley 60, a first synchronous belt 61, a first lead screw 62, a first linear guide rail 63, upper and lower component mounting plates 64, upper and lower fixing plates 65, two material support plates 66, a fifth sensor 46, and a sixth sensor 47. The second drive motor 57, the fifth sensor 46, and the sixth sensor 47 are respectively connected to the control processing system. The fifth sensor 46 and the sixth sensor 47 are respectively mounted on the first profile bracket 42, with the fifth sensor 46 located above the sixth sensor 47. The fifth sensor 46 is used to sense the top empty plate of the stacked empty plates at the receiving plate mechanism 3 and generate a corresponding signal to send to the control processing system. The sixth sensor 47 is used to sense the bottom empty plate of the stacked empty plates at the receiving plate mechanism 3 and generate a corresponding signal to send to the control processing system. The second drive motor 57 is mounted on the motor bracket 58, and the motor bracket 58 is mounted on... Mounted on the upper and lower component mounting plates 64, the first pulley 59 is mounted on the output shaft of the second drive motor 57, the second pulley 60 is mounted on the first lead screw 62, and the first synchronous belt 61 connects the first pulley 59 and the second pulley 60. Two material support plates 66 are respectively mounted on the upper and lower fixed plates 65, which are mounted on the first linear guide rail 63 and simultaneously connected to the first lead screw 62. The second drive motor 57 realizes the up-and-down movement and positioning of the upper and lower fixed plates 65 and the two material support plates 66 mounted on the first lead screw 62 through the first pulley 59, the second pulley 60, and the first synchronous belt 61. The first linear guide rail 63 is mounted on the upper and lower component mounting plates 64, which are mounted on the first profile bracket 42. In the initial state, the two material support plates 66 are in the preset highest position. When the empty plate left and right moving mechanism 43 moves above the empty plate up and down moving mechanism 44, the empty plate will be located directly above the two material support plates 66.

[0038] In this embodiment, when the empty plate output mechanism 10 conveys the empty plate delivered by the receiving positioning conveyor 11 to the preset empty plate receiving position, the receiving plate mechanism 3 performs the empty plate receiving operation under the control of the control processing system. First, the control processing system restarts the timing, and simultaneously controls the eighth cylinder 52 to enter the extended state and the vacuum generator 55 to start working, providing suction for the 10 second vacuum suction cups 50. At this time, the 10 second vacuum suction cups 50 move from top to bottom until they contact the upper surface of the empty plate at the preset empty plate receiving position and adsorb the empty plate. When the timing of the control processing system reaches the fourth delay time, the control processing system controls the eighth cylinder 52 to enter the retracted state. At this time, the 10 vacuum suction cups 50 adsorb the empty plate. The empty plates adsorbed by the second vacuum suction cup 50 rise and leave the empty plate output mechanism 10. Then, the control system controls the first drive motor 49 to provide power to the linear motion module 48. The linear motion module 48 drives the loading and unloading plate cylinder mounting plate 53 to move left and right, moving the 10 empty plates adsorbed by the second vacuum suction cups 50 above the empty plate lifting and lowering mechanism 44, with the empty plates directly above the two material support plates 66. At this time, the control system controls the eighth cylinder 52 to extend, and the empty plates fall onto the two material support plates 66, entering the sensing area of ​​the fifth sensor 46 and being detected by it. The fifth sensor 46 is then triggered to generate a corresponding signal. The signal is sent to the control and processing system. Simultaneously, the control and processing system stops the vacuum generator 55, causing the ten second vacuum suction cups 50 to lose suction. Then, the control and processing system controls the second drive motor 57 to rotate, causing the upper and lower fixed plates 65 to move the two material support plates 66 and the empty plates on the two material support plates 66 downwards by the thickness of one empty plate before stopping. At this point, the uppermost empty plate on the two material support plates 66 moves out of the sensing area of ​​the fifth sensor 46. The upper and lower fixed plates 65 and the two material support plates 66 remain in their current positions, waiting for the arrival of the next empty plate. This process repeats, with one empty plate stacked on each of the two material support plates 66. 5 and the two material support plates 66 move downwards by the thickness of one empty plate until the upper and lower fixed plates 65 and the two material support plates 66 move down to the bottom layer of the empty plates stacked on the two material support plates 66. The empty plate enters the sensing area of ​​the sixth sensor 47 and is sensed by the sixth sensor 47. The sixth sensor 47 is triggered to generate a corresponding signal and send it to the control processing system. At this time, the control processing system controls the empty plate transfer mechanism 8 to enter the working state and transfers a stack of empty plates from the empty plate up and down moving mechanism 44. After the empty plate transfer mechanism 8 has completed the transfer of a stack of empty plates, the control processing system controls the receiving plate mechanism 3 to reset again, waiting for the arrival of the next empty plate at the receiving plate location.

[0039] Example 7: This example is basically the same as Example 6, except that: in this example, as Figure 10As shown, the empty plate transfer mechanism 8 is arranged behind the receiving plate mechanism 3. The empty plate transfer mechanism 8 includes a first-stage roller conveyor 67, a second-stage roller conveyor 68, a third-stage roller conveyor 69, a seventh sensor 70, an eighth sensor 71, a ninth sensor 72, a ninth cylinder 73, a three-color alarm light 45, a three-stage roller mounting plate 74, and a three-stage roller support 75. The three-color alarm light 45 is located on the top of the first profile support. The three-color alarm light 45, the first-stage roller conveyor 67, the second-stage roller conveyor 68, the third-stage roller conveyor 69, the seventh sensor 70, the eighth sensor 71, the ninth sensor 72, and the ninth cylinder 73 are respectively connected to the control and processing system. The first-stage roller conveyor 67, the second-stage roller conveyor 68, and the third-stage roller conveyor 69 are arranged sequentially from front to back. The seventh sensor 70 is installed at the rear end of the first-stage roller conveyor 67, and the eighth sensor 71 is installed on the second-stage roller conveyor 68. 1. The distance from the front end of the empty plate of the second-stage roller conveyor 68 along the front-back direction; the ninth sensor 72 is installed at the rear end of the third-stage roller conveyor 69, the third-stage roller conveyor 69 is installed on the third-stage roller mounting plate 74, the third-stage roller mounting plate 74 is fixed to the end of the output rod of the ninth cylinder 73, the ninth cylinder 73 is used to drive the third-stage roller mounting plate 74 and the third-stage roller conveyor 69 to move up and down, the ninth cylinder 73 is installed on the third-stage roller bracket 75, the first-stage roller conveyor 67, the second-stage roller conveyor 68 and the third-stage roller bracket 75 are respectively placed on the ground, and the upper surfaces of the first-stage roller conveyor 67 and the second-stage roller conveyor 68 are on the same plane; the dimension of the third-stage roller conveyor 69 in the left-right direction is smaller than the length of the carrier plate in the left-right direction, the empty plate recycling trolley 7 is provided with a through-hole, the third-stage roller conveyor 69 can move up and down in the through-hole, and the dimension of the through-hole in the left-right direction is smaller than the length of the carrier plate in the left-right direction;

[0040] In this embodiment, in the initial state, the first-stage roller conveyor 67, the second-stage roller conveyor 68, and the third-stage roller conveyor 69 are all in a stopped state, and the ninth cylinder 73 is in an extended state. At this time, the upper surface of the third-stage roller conveyor 69 is level with the upper surfaces of the first-stage roller conveyor 67 and the second-stage roller conveyor 68. There is nothing on the empty plate recovery trolley 7, and its upper surface is 10mm higher than the upper surface of the third-stage roller conveyor 69. The seventh sensor 70, the eighth sensor 71, and the ninth sensor 72 also do not detect any objects. When the two material support plates of the receiving plate mechanism 3 move downwards until the sixth sensor is triggered, the control processing system controls the empty plate transfer mechanism 8 to proceed. Upon entering the working state, the control and processing system first controls the first-stage roller conveyor 67 to start conveying, and simultaneously controls the two material support plates to move downwards a preset distance, placing the entire stack of empty plates onto the first-stage roller conveyor 67. At this point, the lower surface of the bottom empty plate in the stack contacts the first-stage roller conveyor 67. The first-stage roller conveyor 67 conveys and drives the entire stack of empty plates placed on it to move from front to back, separating the entire stack of empty plates from the two material support plates. When the entire stack of empty plates moves into the sensing area of ​​the seventh sensor 70 and is sensed by the seventh sensor 70, the seventh sensor 70 is triggered, generating a corresponding signal and sending it to the control and processing system. At this time, the control and processing system controls the second-stage roller conveyor... Line 68 also starts working, conveying the stack of empty pallets from the first-stage roller conveyor line 67 to the second-stage roller conveyor line 68. Once the stack of empty pallets enters the second-stage roller conveyor line 68, it continues to move from front to back until it enters the sensing area of ​​the eighth sensor 71 and is detected by it. At this point, the eighth sensor 71 is triggered, generating a corresponding signal and sending it to the control processing system. The control processing system then controls both the first-stage roller conveyor line 67 and the second-stage roller conveyor line 68 to stop working simultaneously. The stack of empty pallets is then stored on the second-stage roller conveyor line 68, and the empty pallet transfer mechanism 8 remains in its current state. When the pallet receiving mechanism 3 is full again... The stack of empty pallets is then transferred to the first-stage roller conveyor line 67, and from there to the second-stage roller conveyor line 68, where they are transported from front to back. Simultaneously, the entire stack of empty pallets already on the second-stage roller conveyor line 68 moves from front to back until the last stack of empty pallets on the second-stage roller conveyor line 68 enters the sensing area of ​​the eighth sensor 71 and is detected. At this point, the eighth sensor 71 is triggered, generating a corresponding signal that is sent to the control processing system. The control processing system then controls both the first-stage roller conveyor line 67 and the second-stage roller conveyor line 68 to stop operating simultaneously. The empty pallet transfer mechanism 8 remains in its current state, waiting for the receiving pallet mechanism 3 to fill another stack of empty pallets. This process is repeated.Once the number of stacks of empty trays remaining on the second-stage roller conveyor line 68 reaches a preset quantity, the control processing system controls the second-stage roller conveyor line 68 and the third-stage roller conveyor line 69 to start working simultaneously. All the stacks of empty trays on the second-stage roller conveyor line 68 are transferred to the third-stage roller conveyor line 69. When the last stack of empty trays on the third-stage roller conveyor line 69 moves to the sensing area of ​​the ninth sensor 72 and is sensed by the ninth sensor 72, the ninth sensor 72 is triggered to generate a corresponding signal and send it to the control processing system. The control processing system then controls the second-stage roller conveyor line 68 and the third-stage roller conveyor line 69 to stop working simultaneously. Subsequently, the ninth cylinder 7 is controlled... 3. Entering the retracted state, the third-stage roller conveyor 69 moves downwards until its upper surface is lower than the upper surface of the empty plate collection trolley 7. Each stack of empty plates originally on the third-stage roller conveyor 69 falls onto the empty plate collection trolley 7 and is supported by it. Then, the control system activates the three-color alarm light 45 to sound an alarm, prompting the operator to pull away the empty plate collection trolley 7 to remove the empty plates. The empty plate collection trolley 7 is then returned to its original position. After completing these operations, the operator resets the alarm in the control system, and the three-color alarm light 45 is turned off. At this point, the control system again controls the empty plate transfer mechanism 8 to return to its initial state, awaiting the next operation.

[0041] Example 8: This example is basically the same as Example 7, except that: in this example, as Figure 12As shown, the receiving and turnover mechanism 4 is arranged behind the receiving robot 2. The receiving and turnover mechanism 4 includes a lifting worktable mechanism 77 and a receiving trolley 78. The lifting worktable mechanism 77 is located in front of the receiving trolley 78. The lifting worktable mechanism 77 includes a tenth sensor 79, a roller conveyor for receiving materials, a tenth cylinder 81, and a lifting worktable profile frame 82. The roller conveyor for receiving materials is referred to as the receiving roller conveyor 80. The tenth sensor 79, the receiving roller conveyor 80, and the tenth cylinder 81 are respectively connected to the control and processing system. The tenth sensor 79 is installed at the top of the lifting worktable profile frame 82. The receiving roller conveyor 80 is installed at the end of the output rod of the tenth cylinder 81. The tenth cylinder 81 is used to drive the receiving roller conveyor 80 to move up and down. The tenth cylinder 81 is installed on the lifting worktable profile frame. On 82, the receiving trolley 78 includes two roller conveyor lines, an eleventh sensor 85, and a twelfth sensor 86. The two roller conveyor lines are arranged vertically, with the upper roller conveyor line being called the upper roller conveyor line 83 and the lower roller conveyor line being called the lower roller conveyor line 84. The upper roller conveyor line 83, the lower roller conveyor line 84, the eleventh sensor 85, and the twelfth sensor 86 are respectively connected to the control and processing system. The eleventh sensor 85 is installed at the front end of the upper roller conveyor line 83, and the twelfth sensor 86 is installed at the front end of the lower roller conveyor line 84. In the initial state, the tenth cylinder 81 of the receiving turnover mechanism 4 is in the extended state, and the receiving roller conveyor line 80 is in the upper position. The upper surface of the receiving roller conveyor line 80 is flush with the upper surface of the upper roller conveyor line 83.

[0042] In this embodiment, before work begins, workers place a preset number of empty turnover boxes sequentially from front to back on the upper roller conveyor line 83 according to preset positions. Neither the eleventh sensor 85 nor the twelfth sensor 86 detects any objects. When the receiving robot 2, under the control of the control and processing system, picks up the block material product from the full material carrier plate 87, the control and processing system simultaneously controls the upper roller conveyor line 83 and the receiving roller conveyor line 80 to run in opposite directions, i.e., conveying from back to front. At this time, the empty turnover boxes on the upper roller conveyor line 83 will flow onto the receiving roller conveyor line 80. When the empty turnover box at the very front of the upper roller conveyor line 83 enters the receiving roller conveyor line 80, this empty turnover box enters the detection range of the eleventh sensor 85. When the empty turnover box is detected by the eleventh sensor 85, the eleventh sensor 85 is first triggered to generate a corresponding signal and send it to the control processing system. When the empty turnover box has completely passed through the sensing area of ​​the eleventh sensor 85, the eleventh sensor 85 loses its trigger signal and generates a corresponding signal to send to the control processing system. At this time, the control processing system controls the upper roller conveyor 83 to stop running, and the receiving roller conveyor 80 continues to run in reverse, moving the empty turnover box from back to front until the empty turnover box enters the sensing area of ​​the tenth sensor 79 and is detected by the tenth sensor 79. At this time, the tenth sensor 79 is triggered to generate a corresponding signal and send it to the control processing system. The control processing system controls the receiving roller conveyor 80 to stop running, and the empty turnover box is placed at the preset receiving position. The receiving robot 2 waits for the cube products it has picked up to be placed into the receiving area. Once the receiving robot 2 completes the number of times preset by the control system, an empty turnover box at the receiving position is filled with cube products, becoming a full turnover box. At this point, the control system again controls the tenth cylinder 81 to retract, moving the receiving roller conveyor 80 along with its full turnover box downwards to a lower position. At this point, the upper surface of the receiving roller conveyor 80 is flush with the upper surface of the lower roller conveyor 84. Subsequently, the control system controls the receiving roller conveyor 80 and the lower roller conveyor 84 to simultaneously begin forward operation, i.e., conveying from front to back. At this time, the receiving roller conveyor 80 can transport its full turnover box to the lower roller conveyor 84. When a full-loaded turnover box is transported to the lower roller conveyor line 84, it enters the sensing area of ​​the twelfth sensor 86 and is detected by the sensor. At this point, the twelfth sensor 86 is triggered to generate a corresponding signal, which is sent to the control processing system. The control processing system first controls the receiving roller conveyor line 80 to stop its forward operation, then controls the tenth cylinder 81 to extend, pushing the receiving roller conveyor line 80 back to its upper position, level with the upper roller conveyor line 83. Meanwhile, the lower roller conveyor line 84 continues to transport the full-loaded turnover box from front to back until the full-loaded turnover box leaves the sensing area of ​​the twelfth sensor 86. At this point, the twelfth sensor 86 is no longer triggered to generate a corresponding signal for the control processing system, and the control processing system stops the lower roller conveyor line 84 from normal operation.The receiving trolley 78 remains in its current state, waiting for the next full-loaded turnover box to enter. This process repeats. When the next full-loaded turnover box enters the lower roller conveyor 84 and begins transport, the existing full-loaded turnover boxes on the lower roller conveyor 84 are simultaneously transported from front to back. When all the empty turnover boxes on the upper roller conveyor 83 have entered and filled the receiving roller conveyor 80, and have all entered the lower roller conveyor 84, the control system activates a three-color alarm light to notify manual removal. At this time, the operator pulls out the receiving trolley 78, removes all the full-loaded turnover boxes from the lower roller conveyor 84, places a predetermined number of empty turnover boxes on the upper roller conveyor 83, and then pushes the receiving trolley 78 back to its initial position. Afterwards, the operator resets the alarm in the control system, the three-color alarm light stops alarming, and the control system again controls the receiving turnover mechanism 4 to return to its initial state.

Claims

1. A block material receiving device, characterized in that... The system includes a control and processing system, a feeding conveyor, a receiving and positioning conveyor, a receiving robot, a receiving and turnover mechanism, an empty pallet output mechanism, a receiving pallet mechanism, an empty pallet transfer mechanism, and an empty pallet recycling trolley. The control and processing system is connected to the feeding conveyor, the receiving and positioning conveyor, the receiving robot, the receiving and turnover mechanism, the empty pallet output mechanism, the receiving pallet mechanism, and the empty pallet transfer mechanism, respectively. The control and processing system controls the feeding conveyor, the receiving and positioning conveyor, the receiving robot, the receiving and turnover mechanism, the empty pallet output mechanism, the receiving pallet mechanism, and the empty pallet transfer mechanism to work collaboratively. The feeding conveyor is used to transport the full pallet (full pallet) of block material output from the previous process to the receiving and positioning conveyor. The receiving and positioning conveyor first positions the full pallet transported by the feeding conveyor for the receiving robot to collect, and then, after the receiving robot completes the collection, the empty pallet is collected. After a full-loaded pallet becomes an empty pallet without any square-shaped products, it is then conveyed to the empty pallet output mechanism. The receiving robot, after positioning the full-loaded pallet conveyed by the feeding conveyor by the receiving positioning conveyor, transfers the square-shaped products from the full-loaded pallet to the receiving turnover mechanism, thus turning the full-loaded pallet into an empty pallet. The receiving turnover mechanism receives the square-shaped products transferred there by the receiving robot, and the empty pallet output mechanism is used to process the collected products. The positioning conveyor transports the empty plates to a preset empty plate collection point. The empty plate collection mechanism is used to transfer the empty plates from the preset empty plate collection point to the designated collection point for stacking, forming a stack of empty plates. The empty plate transfer mechanism is used to transfer the stack of empty plates from the collection point to the designated collection point when the number of empty plates in the stack reaches a preset number. After the number of empty plates in the stack at the designated collection point reaches a preset number, all the stacks of empty plates at the designated collection point are transferred to the empty plate recycling trolley for workers to pick up. The feeding and conveying mechanism includes a roller conveyor, a carrier plate guiding device, and a first sensor. The first sensor is located at the front end of the roller conveyor and is connected to the control and processing system. The first sensor is used to detect whether the carrier plate enters the roller conveyor and generates a corresponding signal to send to the control and processing system. The carrier plate guiding device includes a guiding block, a first cylinder, a cylinder mounting base plate, a second cylinder, and a guiding device mounting plate. The guiding block consists of a block-shaped body and a buffer layer attached to the top of the block-shaped body. The buffer layer is made of a flexible material. The first cylinder and the second cylinder are respectively connected to the control and processing system. The guiding device mounting plate is mounted on... The second cylinder is mounted below the roller conveyor line and behind the first sensor. The second cylinder is mounted on the guide device mounting plate. The cylinder mounting base plate is located above the second cylinder and fixedly mounted on the end of the output rod of the second cylinder. The first cylinder is located above the cylinder mounting base plate and fixedly mounted on it. The guide block is located above the first cylinder and fixedly mounted on the end of the output rod of the first cylinder. The first cylinder drives the guide block to move left and right. The second cylinder drives the cylinder mounting base plate, the first cylinder, and the guide block to move up and down synchronously. When the second cylinder drives the cylinder mounting base plate... When the base plate, the first cylinder, and the guide block move upward synchronously, the guide block extends from the gap between two adjacent rollers in the roller conveyor to above the roller conveyor, blocking the full-loaded plate being conveyed on the roller conveyor. The front end of the guide block is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the roller conveyor. The control system is preset with a guidance time, a first delay time, and a second delay time. In the initial state, the second cylinder is in the retracted state, at which time the upper end of the guide block is lower than the upper surface of the roller conveyor. When the control system controls the roller conveyor to enter the working state, the roller conveyor begins to convey material. When the full-loaded plate enters... When the full-loaded plate enters the roller conveyor line, it transports the full-loaded plate from front to back. When the full-loaded plate enters the sensing area of ​​the first sensor, the first sensor is triggered, generating a corresponding signal and sending it to the control and processing system. At this time, the control and processing system starts timing and simultaneously controls the second cylinder to extend. The output rod of the second cylinder extends upward, causing the guide block to extend upward above the roller conveyor line. The roller conveyor line transports the full-loaded plate to the guide block, where it is blocked. If the full-loaded plate is in a straight state, its rear end face will be in contact with the front end face of the guide block.During the subsequent continuous conveying process of the roller conveyor, the full-loaded plate remains straight. If the full-loaded plate is tilted, a point on its rear end face will initially contact the front end face of the guide block. During the subsequent continuous conveying process, due to the unilateral force on the full-loaded plate, it is eventually guided to a straight state. At this point, the rear end face of the full-loaded plate is in contact with the front end face of the guide block. When the current timing of the control system equals the preset guidance time, the control system restarts timing and simultaneously controls the second cylinder to retract, resetting its output rod. The guide block returns to its initial state. The straight full-loaded plate then continues to be conveyed forward on the roller conveyor. When the current timing of the control system reaches the first delay time, the full-loaded plate will be directly above the guide block. The control system restarts timing and simultaneously controls the second cylinder to extend, resuming the guide block's position. The guide block moves upward, lifting the full-load plate above it and detaching it from the roller conveyor. Then, the control system controls the first cylinder to extend, driving the guide block to move towards the left or right side of the roller conveyor as a reference edge to a preset position. If the full-load plate is already in contact with the reference edge of the roller conveyor, it remains in its current position, and the full-load plate is now straight and in the preset accurate position. If it is not in contact with the reference edge of the roller conveyor, it will move with the guide block until it contacts the reference edge and then stop moving. At this point, the full-load plate is straight and in the preset accurate position. When the control system's current timer reaches the second delay time, the control system first controls the second cylinder to retract, then controls the first cylinder to retract. The guide block returns to its initial state, and the full-load plate falls back onto the roller conveyor and continues moving.

The vacuum pump is also connected to the control and processing system. When the full-loaded carrier plate is positioned at the receiving and positioning conveying mechanism and reaches a preset positioning point, the control and processing system first controls the four-axis robot to move the first vacuum suction cup onto the full-loaded carrier plate at the preset positioning point. At this point, the first vacuum suction cup is 0.8mm to 1mm away from the upper surface of the square material product in the full-load carrier plate. The control system then controls the vacuum pump to start working, providing suction to the first vacuum suction cup. The first vacuum suction cup, with the suction force, adsorbs the square material product from the full-load carrier plate onto it. The control system then controls the four-axis robot to move the first vacuum suction cup, which holds the square material product, to a pre-set empty turnover box at the material collection and turnover mechanism.

The third sensor and the fourth sensor are respectively connected to the control and processing system. The third sensor is located at the foremost inlet of the empty plate output roller line to sense whether an empty plate is being conveyed to the empty plate output mechanism and generates a corresponding signal output to the control and processing system. The second positioning block is located at the rear end of the empty plate output roller line. The fourth sensor is located below the second positioning block to sense whether an empty plate has arrived at or left the empty plate output mechanism and generates a corresponding signal output to the control and processing system. When there is no empty plate...
