Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of product material handling equipment technology, and in particular to an integrated loading and unloading electronic paper material handling system. Background Technology
[0002] With the development of electronic technology, the concept of electronic paper, also known as digital paper, has emerged. It is an ultra-thin, ultra-light display screen, essentially a "paper-thin, flexible, and erasable display." Before processing the electronic paper, a tray containing multiple sheets of electronic paper needs to be transported to a designated location. The electronic paper is then removed and continuously fed to the processing device. However, the multiple sheets of electronic paper in the tray are separated by partitions to prevent damage during transport. When removing the electronic paper, the electronic paper and the partitions are removed alternately.
[0003] However, existing electronic paper handling devices are not very efficient. When a tray filled with new electronic paper needs to be transported to a designated location for tray changing, the handling device experiences intermittent picking up of electronic paper, making it impossible to continuously remove electronic paper from the tray and affecting the subsequent processing efficiency of electronic paper. Therefore, an integrated loading and unloading electronic paper handling system is provided to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an integrated loading and unloading electronic paper feeding system to address the shortcomings of existing technologies, thereby solving the technical problem that the feeding device will have intermittent feeding of electronic paper during the process of transporting new trays containing electronic paper to a designated location for tray replacement.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of the present invention is as follows:
[0006] An integrated loading and unloading electronic paper feeding system includes a moving transfer mechanism for removing electronic paper from a tray and a feeding mechanism for continuously feeding the tray to the moving transfer mechanism.
[0007] The feeding mechanism includes a first base and a material transport trolley placed beside the first base. The material transport trolley is used to transport multiple trays containing electronic paper. The trays are stacked. A first support frame is fixed on the first base, and a first lifting frame that can slide up and down is provided on the first support frame. The first lifting frame is provided with a support component for lifting the trays and a material pulling component for pulling the trays on the material transport trolley onto the support component. A material conveying component is provided on the first base directly below the support component.
[0008] The mobile transfer mechanism includes a second support frame and a lateral transfer assembly mounted on the second support frame. A material conveying assembly for transporting a tray containing electronic paper is located at the bottom of the second support frame. The material conveying assembly is positioned below the lateral transfer assembly and is connected to the material conveying component. A first lifting and transferring assembly for transferring the tray from the material conveying assembly to the lateral transfer assembly is located between the lateral transfer assembly and the material conveying assembly. A second lifting and transferring assembly for supporting the tray placed at the paper-holding position is also provided. A first suction assembly for handling electronic paper and a second suction assembly for handling paper-holding components are mounted on the support frame.
[0009] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: After the material transport trolley carrying multiple trays is moved to the designated position, the first lifting frame is first driven to the designated height so that the material pulling component is aligned with one of the trays on the material transport trolley. Then, the material pulling component is operated to pull the tray from the material transport trolley to the supporting component. The first lifting frame is then driven to descend to the lowest position. During the descent, the material pulling component also serves to limit the tray. After the lifting frame is driven to the lowest position, the supporting component is operated to place the tray on the conveying component. Finally, the conveying component is operated to transport the tray to the material transport assembly, realizing automatic tray feeding. Subsequently, the supporting component and the material pulling component are reset to remove the other tray from the material transport trolley, realizing automatic tray loading on the material transport trolley.
[0010] The material conveying component transports the tray containing electronic paper to a position directly below the first lifting and transfer component. The first lifting and transfer component then moves up and down to move the tray from the material conveying component to the picking position. Next, the lateral transfer component supports the tray on the first lifting and transfer component, allowing it to detach from the tray. The lateral transfer component then supports the tray, completing the transfer. Subsequently, the first and second suction components operate simultaneously, using a cross-transfer method to remove the electronic paper and separator paper from the tray. The first suction component moves the electronic paper to the next processing unit, while the second suction component moves the separator paper into an empty tray placed on the second lifting and transfer component, thus achieving continuous material handling. After the electronic paper and spacer paper in the tray are removed, the second lifting and transfer assembly and the lateral conveying assembly operate simultaneously. The second lifting and transfer assembly places the tray containing the spacer paper into the designated position for stacking. The lateral conveying assembly moves the empty tray to the position for holding the spacer paper. Then, the second lifting and transfer assembly returns to its original position to support the empty tray above the lateral conveying assembly. Simultaneously, the first lifting and transfer assembly moves the next tray containing electronic paper to the picking position. The lateral conveying assembly operates again to detach from the empty tray. The first lifting and transferring component holds the tray containing electronic paper, while the second lifting and transferring component holds the empty tray. After the first lifting and transferring component disengages from the tray containing electronic paper, the transfer between trays is completed. This cycle continues, with the cooperation of each component, to continuously replenish the tray containing electronic paper and continuously remove electronic paper from the tray, so that the electronic paper can be continuously placed into the next process for processing. This achieves automatic feeding of electronic paper and improves the efficiency of subsequent electronic paper processing. Attached Figure Description

[0032] The following is a detailed description of an integrated loading and unloading electronic paper feeding system of the present invention, with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0033] like Figure 1-2As shown, an embodiment of the electronic paper feeding system of the present invention includes a moving transfer mechanism for removing electronic paper from a tray 105, and a feeding mechanism for continuously conveying the tray 105 to the moving transfer mechanism. The moving transfer mechanism is connected to the feeding mechanism. By operating the feeding mechanism, the tray 105 containing electronic paper is continuously and uniformly conveyed to the moving transfer mechanism, realizing automatic feeding of the tray 105. After the tray 105 containing electronic paper is conveyed to the moving transfer mechanism, the moving transfer mechanism is operated to remove the electronic paper and the spacer paper from the tray 105 in a cross-sectional manner. The removed electronic paper is transported to the next mechanism for processing, while the spacer paper is loaded into another empty tray 105, realizing automatic unloading of the electronic paper. With the cooperation of the feeding mechanism and the moving transfer mechanism, electronic paper is continuously removed from the tray 105 and then transported to the next mechanism, improving the efficiency of subsequent electronic paper processing.
[0034] like Figure 3-4 As shown, the feeding mechanism includes a first base 1014 and a material transport trolley placed beside the first base 1014. The material transport trolley is used to transport multiple trays 105 containing electronic paper. The trays 105 are stacked. A first support frame 1015 is fixed on the first base 1014, and several vertically arranged first slide rails 1018 are mounted on the first support frame 1015. A first lifting frame 1019 that can slide up and down is provided on the first slide rails 1018. Under the action of the first slide rails 1018, the first lifting frame 1019 slides up and down on the first support frame 1015. However, in order for the first lifting frame 1019 to slide automatically... A sprocket 1016 is provided at both the upper and lower ends of the first support frame 1015, and a chain 1017 is wound around the sprocket 1016. Part of the chain 1017 is fixedly set to the first lifting frame 1019. A second stepper motor 1028 with an output shaft fixedly set to one of the sprockets 1016 is mounted on the first support frame 1015. When it is necessary for the first lifting frame 1019 to slide up and down on the first support frame 1015, the second stepper motor 1028 is started, thereby driving the sprocket 1016 to rotate. At the same time, the chain 1017 moves to move the first lifting frame 1019 up and down on the first support frame 1015, driving the first lifting frame 1019 to the designated position.
[0035] To remove the trays 105 one by one from the transport trolley, the first lifting frame 1019 is equipped with a support component 1020 for lifting the trays 105 and a pulling component 1021 for pulling the trays 105 from the transport trolley onto the support component 1020. A conveying component 1022 is located directly below the support component 1020 on the first base 1014, and the conveying component 1022 is used to connect with the moving transfer mechanism. After the transport trolley carrying multiple trays 105 is moved to the designated position, the second stepper motor 1028 is first started to drive the first lifting frame 1019 to the designated height, so that the pulling component 1021 is aligned with one of the trays 105 on the transport trolley. Then, the pulling component 1021 is operated to remove the trays 105 from the transport trolley. Tray 105 is pulled from the material transport trolley onto the support component 1020. The second stepper motor 1028 is started again to drive the first lifting frame 1019 to descend to its lowest position. During the descent, the pulling component 1021 also serves to limit the Tray 105. After the first lifting frame 1019 is driven to its lowest position, the support component 1020 is activated to place the Tray 105 onto the conveying component 1022. Finally, the conveying component 1022 is activated to transport the Tray 105 with electronic paper to the moving transfer mechanism. Subsequently, the support component 1020 and the pulling component 1021 are reset to remove the other Tray 105 from the material transport trolley. With the cooperation of each component, the automatic feeding and handling of the Tray 105 is realized.
[0036] like Figure 5 As shown, the tray 105 includes a rectangular frame 10501 (the electronic paper is also rectangular in shape), and a tray bottom 10502 is provided at the bottom of the frame 10501. The frame 10501 and the tray bottom 10502 are combined to form a tray 105 for holding electronic paper. To enable multiple trays 105 to be stacked stably, a positioning protrusion 10504 is provided at the top of the frame 10501, and a positioning hole 10505 is provided at its bottom for the positioning protrusion 10504 to pass through. When multiple trays 105 are stacked together, the positioning protrusion 10504 of the lower tray 105 will pass through the positioning hole 10505 of the upper tray 105, thereby enabling multiple trays 105 to be stacked stably together.
[0037] like Figure 6As shown, the supporting component 1020 includes a second slide rail 10201 arranged horizontally on the first lifting frame 1019, and a pair of movable plates 10202 respectively placed on both sides of the pulling component 1021 are slidably provided on the second slide rail 10201. The first lifting frame 1019 is also provided with a pair of mirror-arranged first cylinders 10204, and the ends of the telescopic rods of the first cylinders 10204 are fixedly connected to different movable plates 10202 respectively, so as to push the movable plates 10202 on both sides to slide in a direction that moves closer to each other or further away from each other, thereby adjusting the distance between the movable plates 10202 on both sides. On the side of the two movable plates 10202 that are close to each other, there are several third support rollers 10203 for supporting the tray 105, and the third support rollers 10203 are arranged in an array along the horizontal direction. After the tray 105 on the material transport trolley is pulled between the two movable plates 10202 by the material pulling component 1021, the frame 10501 of the tray 105 is supported by the third support rollers 10203. In addition, the friction is reduced during the pulling process, and the unloading efficiency is improved. In addition, after the first lifting frame 1019 is lowered to its lowest position, the tray 105 is placed on the conveying component 1022. Then, the first cylinder 10204 is activated to drive the movable plates 10202 on both sides to slide in a direction away from each other, thereby causing the third support roller 10203 to disengage from the frame 10501 of the tray 105, thus completing the unloading process of the tray 105. Finally, the conveying component 1022 is activated to feed the tray 105 to the next process. While the first lifting frame 1019 moves upward, the first cylinder 10204 drives the movable plates 10202 on both sides to move closer together and reset.
[0038] like Figure 6-7As shown, the material pulling component 1021 includes a third fixed frame 10211 disposed on the first lifting frame 1019 and positioned between the two movable plates 10202. A horizontally arranged third slide rail 10212 is provided on the third fixed frame 10211, and the length direction of the third slide rail 10212 is perpendicular to the length direction of the second slide rail 10201. A sliding seat 10213 is provided on the third slide rail 10212, and the sliding seat 10213 can slide towards or away from the material transport trolley. Furthermore, a second cylinder 10214 with a downwardly oriented telescopic rod is mounted on the sliding seat 10213, and a gripper 10215 for gripping the tray 105 is fixed to the end of the telescopic rod of the second cylinder 10214. Driving the sliding seat 10213 to slide towards the material transport trolley on the third fixed frame 10211 moves the second cylinder... 10214 and gripper 10215 are positioned near the edge of frame 10501. Then, the second cylinder 10214 is activated to push gripper 10215 downward, so that gripper 10215 grabs the edge of frame 10501. Finally, the sliding seat 10213 is driven to slide away from the material transport trolley. At the same time, gripper 10215 pulls tray 105 to move together, pulling tray 105 off the material transport trolley and onto the third support roller 10203 of movable plate 10202, thus unloading tray 105. After the first lifting frame 1019 descends to place tray 105 on conveying component 1022, the second cylinder 10214 pulls gripper 10215 upward to reset, so that gripper 10215 disengages from frame 10501 of tray 105.
[0039] To enable the sliding seat 10213 to slide automatically on the third fixed frame 10211, a pair of gears 10216 are provided on the third fixed frame 10211, with the gears 10216 respectively close to both ends of the third slide rail 10212. A toothed belt 10217 is wound around the gears 10216, and part of the toothed belt 10217 is fixedly set to the sliding seat 10213. A first stepper motor 10218 with its output shaft facing downward is also installed on the sliding seat 10213, and the output shaft of the first stepper motor 10218 is fixedly set to one of the gears 10216. When it is necessary to drive the sliding seat 10213 to slide, the first stepper motor 10218 is started, thereby driving the gear 10216 to rotate, so that the sliding seat 10213 can slide automatically on the third fixed frame 10211 through the toothed belt 10217, thereby realizing automated unloading.
[0040] like Figure 8As shown, the material transport trolley includes a support frame 1 and several casters 102 located at the bottom of the support frame 1, allowing the support frame 1 to move. Handrails 101 are fixedly installed on the support frame 1, allowing workers to push the support frame 1 to move freely. The support frame 1 includes an opening for inserting trays 105 (the opening is away from the handrails 101), and several support components for supporting the trays 105 are installed inside the support frame 1. These support components are stacked and installed from top to bottom inside the support frame 1, thus supporting multiple trays 105 placed inside the support frame 1. After moving the support frame 1, multiple trays 105 can be transported at once, improving the transport efficiency of electronic paper. During the movement of the support frame 1, to prevent the tray 105 from detaching from the support components, each layer of the support components is equipped with a clamping mechanism to hold the tray 105 in place. Specifically, after placing multiple trays 105 onto different support components through the openings of the support frame 1, the clamping mechanisms on the support components hold the trays 105 in place, ensuring that the trays 105 remain stably positioned on the support components during the movement of the support frame 1. After the support frame 1 is pushed to the designated position, the clamping mechanisms are unlocked, allowing the trays 105 to be removed from the support components via the material pulling component 1021. Additionally, a slot 10503 is provided at the bottom of the frame 10501 for the clamping mechanism to engage. After the tray 105 is placed inside the support frame 1, part of the frame 10501 rests on the support components. Once the tray 105 is securely positioned, the clamping mechanism engages with the slot 10503, thus securing the tray 105.
[0041] The support component includes a pair of crossbars 103 at the same height and fixedly mounted to the support frame 1. The crossbars 103 are arranged opposite each other, and each crossbar 103 is provided with several pulleys 104 for supporting the frame 10501 of the tray 105. The pulleys 104 are arranged in a horizontal array. First, one end of the tray 105 is placed on the pulley 104, and then the tray 105 is pushed so that the frame 10501 of the tray 105 slides on the pulleys 104. Under the action of the pulleys 104, the tray 105 is not only supported, but also placed into the support frame 1 more effectively. In addition, a clamping mechanism is provided at the end of the crossbar 103 near the opening of the support frame 1. After the tray 105 is placed stably, the clamping mechanism engages with the slot 10503.
[0042] like Figure 9-10As shown, the clamping mechanism includes a fixed seat 106 mounted on the crossbar 103. The fixed seat 106 is located at one end of the crossbar 103 near the opening of the support frame 1. A locking block 109 is provided on the fixed seat 106, which can automatically engage with a locking slot 10503. After the tray 105 is placed securely, the locking block 109 automatically engages with the locking slot 10503, thereby clamping the tray 105. Further, a first rotating shaft 107 is provided on the fixed seat 106, arranged horizontally and perpendicular to the length direction of the crossbar 103. One end of the locking block 109 is fixedly connected to the first rotating shaft 107, and the other end is used to engage with the locking slot 10503 to clamp the tray 105. The locking block 109 swings on the fixed seat 106 via the first rotating shaft 107, allowing the locking block 109 to engage with or disengage from the locking slot 10503. A spring 1011 is provided between the fixed seats 106 for applying force to the locking block 109. The spring 1011 applies a pushing force to the locking block 109 so that the locking block 109 is locked into the locking slot 10503. When a force is applied to the locking block 109 to disengage it from the locking slot 10503, the spring 1011 will be compressed. After the force applied to the locking block 109 is stopped, the locking block 109 will automatically reset under the action of the compressed spring 1011, thus realizing that the locking block 109 will automatically lock into the locking slot 10503. In addition, in order to limit the movement of the locking block 109, an arc-shaped groove 1010 is provided on the locking block 109, and a fixing post 108 is provided on the fixing base 106. One end of the fixing post 108 is placed in the arc-shaped groove 1010. When the locking block 109 swings on the fixing base 106 via the first rotating shaft 107, the fixing post 108 slides in the arc-shaped groove 1010. Under the action of the fixing post 108 and the arc-shaped groove 1010, the swing angle of the locking block 109 is limited.
[0043] After the support frame 1 is pushed to the designated position and docked with the first base 1014, in order to disengage the locking block 109 from the slot 10503, a third cylinder 1026 with a telescopic rod is provided on the movable plate 10202 facing the support frame 1, and a push rod 1027 for pushing the locking block 109 out of the slot 10503 is fixed on the end of the telescopic rod of the third cylinder 1026. When the support frame 1 is placed in the designated position, the third cylinder 1026 is activated, thereby pushing the push rod 1027 to apply force to the locking block 109, so that the locking block 109 disengages from the slot 10503, thereby realizing the automatic unlocking of the tray 105.
[0044] like Figure 11As shown, the mobile transfer mechanism includes a second support frame 1029 and a lateral transfer component 1030 disposed on the second support frame 1029. When it is necessary to remove the electronic paper from the tray 105, the lateral transfer component 1030 supports the tray 105, so that the tray 105 is placed in the designated material picking position. After the electronic paper is picked up, the lateral transfer component 1030 is operated to drive the tray 105 to move laterally, thereby transferring the empty tray 105 to the position for holding the paper divider. The second support frame 1029 has a material conveying assembly 1036 at its bottom for transporting the tray 105 containing electronic paper. The material conveying assembly 1036 is positioned below the transverse transfer assembly 1030 and connects to the conveying component 1022. The conveying component 1022 transports the tray 105 containing electronic paper to the material conveying assembly 1036, and the material conveying assembly 1036 then transports the tray 105 to a designated transfer position. The transverse transfer assembly... A first lifting and transferring component 1031 and a second lifting and transferring component 1032 are arranged side by side between the material conveying component 1030 and the material conveying component 1036. The first lifting and transferring component 1031 is used to transport the tray 105 on the material conveying component 1036 to the transverse transfer component 1030, and the height travel of the first lifting and transferring component 1031 is 1.2m. The second lifting and transferring component 1032 is used to support the empty tray 105, so that the empty tray 105 is placed in the position of holding the paper divider.
[0045] In addition, in order to remove the electronic paper and the separator paper placed in the Tray 105 separately, a first suction component 1033 for transporting electronic paper and a second suction component 1034 for transporting separator paper are also provided on the second support frame 1029. The transport trajectory of the first suction component 1033 is opposite to that of the second suction component 1034. The first suction component 1033 and the second suction component 1034 operate simultaneously. The first suction component 1033 first transports the electronic paper from the Tray 105 to the next process, and the second suction component 1034 then transports the separator paper to the Tray 105 placed on the second lifting and transfer component 1032. Then the first suction component 1033 transports the next sheet of electronic paper. This cycle is repeated to achieve cross-transfer. A palletizing platform 1035 is provided on the second support frame 1029 and located below the second lifting and transfer assembly 1032. After the tray 105 on the transverse transfer assembly 1030 is emptied, the second lifting and transfer assembly 1032 is operated to drive the tray 105 with the partition paper to move downward, thereby placing the tray 105 on the palletizing platform 1035. After multiple trays 105 are placed on the palletizing platform 1035 and stacked to a total of 8 trays, the palletizing platform 1035 can be operated to transport the stacked trays 105 out of the moving transfer mechanism.
[0046] After the stacked trays 105 are conveyed out of the moving transfer mechanism, in order to facilitate the removal of multiple trays 105 containing the dividers, a storage mechanism connected to the palletizing platform 1035 is provided on the side of the second support frame 1029. By operating the palletizing platform 1035 and the storage mechanism simultaneously, the stacked trays 105 can be conveyed to the storage mechanism, so that the storage mechanism can store multiple stacks of trays 105 (8 trays are stacked as one stack). The staff can directly take the trays 105 from the storage mechanism. In addition, a transfer trolley 1058 is provided next to the storage mechanism and connected to it. By operating the storage mechanism and the transfer trolley 1058 at the same time, the tray 105 on the storage mechanism is transported to the transfer trolley 1058. Then, the transfer trolley 1058 is pushed to move away from the storage mechanism. The stacked tray 105 can be removed by the transfer trolley 1058 and transported to a designated location for reloading electronic paper.
[0047] Specifically, by operating the conveying component 1022 and the conveying assembly 1036, the tray 105 containing electronic paper is transported to directly below the first lifting and transferring assembly 1031. Then, the first lifting and transferring assembly 1031 moves up and down to lift the tray 105, which is placed on the conveying assembly 1036, to the picking position. Next, the lateral transfer assembly 1030 is operated to support the tray 105 on the first lifting and transferring assembly 1031, and the first lifting and transferring assembly 1031 is operated to detach it from the tray 105, thus allowing passage... The tray 105 is supported by the transverse transfer component 1030 to complete the handover of the tray 105; then the first suction component 1033 and the second suction component 1034 operate simultaneously to remove the electronic paper and the partition paper from the tray 105 through a cross-transfer method. The first suction component 1033 transports the electronic paper to the next mechanism for processing, and the second suction component 1034 transports the partition paper to the empty tray 105 placed on the second lifting and transfer component 1032, thereby realizing uninterrupted material handling. After the electronic paper and spacer paper in tray 105 are removed, the second lifting and transfer assembly 1032 and the lateral transfer assembly 1030 are activated simultaneously. The second lifting and transfer assembly 1032 moves the tray 105 containing spacer paper downwards to place it on the stacking platform 1035, stacking multiple trays 105 containing spacer paper (up to 8 trays). The lateral transfer assembly 1030 moves the empty tray 105 to the position for holding spacer paper. Then, the second lifting and transfer assembly 1032 is activated to return to its original position to support the empty tray 105 above the lateral transfer assembly 1030. At the same time, the first lifting and transfer assembly 1031 moves the next tray 105 containing electronic paper... 05. The material is moved to the picking position, and the lateral transfer component 1030 is run again to disengage from the empty tray 105, thereby supporting the tray 105 containing electronic paper. The empty tray 105 is supported by the second lifting and transfer component 1032. After the first lifting and transfer component 1031 disengages from the tray 105 containing electronic paper, the handover process between trays 105 is completed. This cycle is repeated, and with the cooperation between the components, the trays 105 containing electronic paper are continuously replenished, and the electronic paper is continuously removed from the trays 105, ultimately enabling the continuous placement of electronic paper into the next process for processing.
[0048] After eight trays 105 are stacked on the palletizing platform 1035, the palletizing platform 1035 and the storage mechanism operate simultaneously to transport the stacked trays 105 to the storage mechanism, allowing the storage mechanism to store multiple stacks of trays 105 (eight trays per stack). Workers can then directly remove the trays 105 from the storage mechanism. Simultaneously, the storage mechanism and the transfer trolley 1058 operate to transport the trays 105 from the storage mechanism to the transfer trolley 1058. The transfer trolley 1058 is then moved to detach from the storage mechanism, allowing the stacked trays 105 to be removed and transported to a designated location for reloading electronic paper. The operation of the storage mechanism and the transfer trolley 1058 prevents blockages caused by the first suction component 1033's excessively fast paper-taking speed after stacking the trays 105.
[0049] like Figure 12 As shown, the transverse transfer assembly 1030 includes a pair of fourth slide rails 10301 arranged transversely on the second support frame 1029. The fourth slide rails 10301 are arranged in parallel, and each fourth slide rail 10301 is provided with a sliding frame 10302. The sliding frames 10302 on both sides can move back and forth synchronously in the transverse direction on the second support frame 1029 via the fourth slide rails 10301. On the side of the sliding frames 10302 that are close to each other, there is a support plate 10303 for supporting the frame 10501. The support plate 10303 supports the tray 105 placed at the material picking position. After the electronic paper in the tray 105 is picked up, the sliding frames 10302 on both sides are driven. Synchronous operation is performed to move the Tray 105 to the position for holding the paper divider. After the empty Tray 105 is transferred from the tray 10303 to the second lifting and transfer component 1032, the first lifting and transfer component 1031 is used to lift the next Tray 105 containing electronic paper to the designated height (i.e., the material picking position). Then, the sliding frames 10302 on both sides are driven to return to the initial position, thereby moving the tray 10303 into the frame 10501 of the Tray 105. The first lifting and transfer component 1031 is run again to disengage the Tray 105 from the first lifting and transfer component 1031, so that the tray 10303 supports the new Tray 105. In order to drive the sliding frames 10302 on both sides to move back and forth synchronously in the lateral direction, a pair of control modules 10304 for driving different sliding frames 10302 to move are provided on the second support frame 1029. By running the control modules 10304 at the same time, the sliding frames 10302 on both sides can be driven to move synchronously, thereby driving the empty tray 105.
[0050] like Figure 13As shown, the first lifting and transfer assembly 1031 includes a fixed plate 10311 mounted on the second support frame 1029, and a vertically arranged fifth slide rail 10312 is provided on the fixed plate 10311. A U-shaped lifting frame 10313 is slidably mounted on the fifth slide rail 10312, allowing the lifting frame 10313 to move up and down on the fixed plate 10311 under the action of the fifth slide rail 10312. Several fourth cylinders 10318 are provided on one side of the lifting frame 10313 that are close to each other. The telescopic rods of the fourth cylinders 10318 on both sides are arranged opposite each other, and each fourth cylinder 10318... Each telescopic rod of the 18 is fixed with a support block 10316 for supporting the frame 10501. Each support block 10316 is fixed with a slide rod 10317, and the slide rod 10317 is slidably mounted on the lifting frame 10313. At the same time, the fourth cylinders 10318 on both sides are activated to push the support blocks 10316 on both sides to move towards each other, so that the support blocks 10316 extend into the frame 10501. When the lifting frame 10313 is driven to move up and down, the tray 105 containing electronic paper can be lifted from the material conveying component 1036 and transferred to the pallet 10303. In order to drive the lifting frame 10313 to move up and down on the fixed plate 10311, a vertically arranged lead screw 10314 is rotatably provided on the fixed plate 10311, and the lead screw 10314 is threadedly connected to the lifting frame 10313. A third stepper motor 10315 is mounted on the fixed plate 10311, and the output shaft of the third stepper motor 10315 is drivenly connected to one end of the lead screw 10314. By starting the third stepper motor 10315, the lead screw 10314 is driven to rotate, thereby driving the lifting frame 10313 to move up and down on the fixed plate 10311.
[0051] In addition, the first lifting and transferring component 1031 and the second lifting and transferring component 1032 have the same structure. The first lifting and transferring component 1031 drives the tray 105 containing electronic paper to move upward for transfer, while the second lifting and transferring component 1032 drives the tray 105 containing paper to move downward through the opposite operation mode, thereby stacking it on the palletizing platform 1035.
[0052] like Figure 14As shown, the first suction assembly 1033 includes a transverse linear module 10331 mounted on the second support frame 1029. A movable seat 10332 is mounted on the transverse linear module 10331. The transverse linear module 10331 is operated to drive the movable seat 10332 to move back and forth transversely. A lifting rod 10333 is slidably mounted on the movable seat 10332, and a suction cup assembly 10334 for holding electronic paper is mounted at the bottom end of the lifting rod 10333. Under the action of the lifting rod 10333, the suction cup assembly 10334 moves up and down on the movable seat 10332 to pick up the electronic paper placed in the tray 105. The transverse linear module 10331 is then used to drive the suction cup assembly 10334 to move transversely along the transport trajectory, thereby transporting the electronic paper to the next processing mechanism. In addition, a vertical linear module 10335 is installed on the movable seat 10332, and a suction cup assembly 10334 is installed on the vertical linear module 10335. By running the vertical linear module 10335, the suction cup assembly 10334 is driven to move up and down on the movable seat 10332.
[0053] The first suction component 1033 and the second suction component 1034 have the same structure and operate in the same way. The transport trajectory of the first suction component 1033 is opposite to that of the second suction component 1034. When the first suction component 1033 and the second suction component 1034 operate synchronously, they transport electronic paper and various other items to different positions in a cross-sectional manner.
[0054] like Figure 15As shown, the storage mechanism includes a second base 1040 for support, and a first storage platform 1056 for storing multiple trays 105 (i.e., stacked trays 105) is provided on the second base 1040. A stacking platform 1035 for stacking trays 105 is located next to the first storage platform 1056, and a handling mechanism for transporting trays 105 on the stacking platform 1035 to the first storage platform 1056 is also provided on the second base 1040. Specifically, by stacking trays 105 with separator paper on the palletizing platform 1035, up to eight trays, the conveying mechanism is activated. The conveying mechanism moves upward to connect with the palletizing platform 1035. After connection, both the palletizing platform 1035 and the conveying mechanism operate simultaneously to transport the stacked trays 105 upward. Finally, the conveying mechanism moves downward, placing the stacked trays 105 on the first storage platform 1056, thus storing the trays 105 with separator paper. Additionally, to increase the storage capacity of the trays 105, a second storage platform 1057 is provided on the second base 1040, connecting with the first storage platform 1056. The conveying mechanism then transports the stacked trays... After the tray 105 is placed on the first storage platform 1056, the first storage platform 1056 and the second storage platform 1057 are operated simultaneously to transport the tray 105 stacked on the first storage platform 1056 to the second storage platform 1057. Under the action of the first storage platform 1056 and the second storage platform 1057, two piles of tray 105 can be stored at the same time, which increases the storage effect of the tray 105. Furthermore, by connecting the transfer trolley 1058 to the second storage platform 1057, the stacked tray 105 can be directly removed from the second storage platform 1057 at once, and then the tray 105 on the first storage platform 1056 can be replenished to the second storage platform 1057, thus realizing the buffering processing of the tray 105 discharge.
[0055] Furthermore, the handling mechanism includes a second lifting frame 1043 and several worm gear lifters 1041 (model SWL1T) mounted on the second base 1040. The second lifting frame 1043 is fixedly mounted on the lifting shaft end of the worm gear lifter 1041. By simultaneously operating multiple worm gear lifters 1041, the second lifting frame 1043 is driven to move up and down on the second base 1040. The second lifting frame 1043 is provided with a pair of parallel and horizontally arranged first strip frames 1044. The length direction of the first strip frames 1044 is consistent with the conveying direction of the palletizing platform 1035. The distance between the two first strip frames 1044 is the same as the size of the tray 105. Several first support rollers 1045 for supporting the tray 105 are rotatably provided on the side of the two first strip frames 1044 that are close to each other. The first support rollers 1045 are arranged in an array along the horizontal direction. By operating multiple worm gear lifts 1041, the second lifting frame 1043 is driven to move upward, thereby connecting the first support roller 1045 with the palletizing platform 1035. Then, the palletizing platform 1035 is operated to transport the stacked trays 105 to the first support roller 1045.
[0056] To align the tray 105 placed on the first support roller 1045, a first transmission member 1046 is provided between adjacent first support rollers 1045 on the same first strip frame 1044. The first transmission member 1046 enables the first support rollers 1045 on the same first strip frame 1044 to rotate synchronously. In addition, a first drive module 1047 is provided on the second lifting frame 1043 to drive the rotation of the first support rollers 1045. When the first drive module 1047 drives one of the first support rollers 1045 to rotate, the other first support rollers 1045 are driven to rotate together under the transmission action of the first transmission member 1046, thereby aligning the tray 105 placed on the first support roller 1045. After alignment, multiple worm gear lifts 1041 can be operated to drive the second lifting frame 1043 to move downward, thereby placing the tray 105 onto the first storage platform 1056. Additionally, a first guide plate 1048 is provided on the top of each of the first strip-shaped frame bodies 1044 on both sides to guide the tray 105. During the process of transporting the tray 105 to the first support roller 1045 by running the palletizing platform 1035, the first guide plate 1048 guides and limits the tray 105, so that the tray 105 always moves in a straight line and does not deviate during the placement and transportation process, thereby improving the transportation efficiency.
[0057] like Figure 16As shown, the first storage platform 1056 includes a pair of second fixing frames 10561 mounted on the second base 1040. Each second fixing frame 10561 has a horizontally arranged second strip-shaped frame 10562, with the second strip-shaped frames 10562 on both sides parallel to each other. The distance between the two second strip-shaped frames 10562 is the same as the size of the tray 105, and the length direction of the second strip-shaped frame 10562 is perpendicular to the length direction of the first strip-shaped frame 1044. On the side where the two second strip-shaped frames 10562 are close to each other, a plurality of second supports for supporting the tray 105 are rotatably provided. The rollers 10563 and the second support rollers 10563 are arranged in a horizontal array. They are mounted on the same second strip frame 10562, and a second transmission member 10564 is provided between adjacent second support rollers 10563. The second transmission member 10564 enables the second support rollers 10563 mounted on the same second strip frame 10562 to rotate synchronously. In addition, a second drive module 10565 is provided on the second fixed frame 10561 to drive the rotation of the second support rollers 10563. The second drive module 10565 has the same structure and operation as the first drive module 1047. When the second drive module 10565 drives one of the second support rollers 10563 to rotate, the other second support rollers 10563 are driven to rotate together under the transmission action of the second transmission member 10564, thereby realizing the transportation of the tray 105 placed on the second support roller 10563 to the second storage platform 1057. Each of the two second strip-shaped frames 10562 has a second guide plate 10566 at its top for guiding the tray 105. During the process of transporting the tray 105 to the second storage platform 1057 by operating the second drive module 10565, the second guide plate 10566 guides and limits the tray 105, ensuring that the tray 105 always moves in a straight line. Furthermore, the first storage platform 1056 and the second storage platform 1057 have the same structure and operate in the same manner.
[0058] In summary, the present invention possesses the excellent characteristics described above, which enhances its effectiveness in use compared to previous technologies, making it a practical product with extremely practical value.
