[0067] Furthermore, such as Figure 5 As shown, the cup lid adjusting and transferring mechanism 6 includes a transfer support frame 61 connected to the packing frame 1 and located on both sides of the end of the cup lid conveying mechanism 2, a longitudinal moving plate 62 provided on the transfer support frame 61, a longitudinal linear drive assembly 63 provided on the longitudinal moving plate 62, a longitudinal sliding seat 64 provided at the moving end of the longitudinal linear drive assembly 63, a vertical drive assembly 65 provided on the longitudinal sliding seat 64, a vertical moving seat 66 connected to the moving end of the vertical drive assembly 65, and a pneumatic gripper 67 provided on the vertical moving seat 66 for clamping the cup lid.

[0068] When the pneumatic gripper 67 clamps the cup lid on the cup lid conveying mechanism 2, the vertical drive assembly 65 drives the pneumatic gripper 67 to move the cup lid upward so that the cup lid is disengaged from the cup lid conveying mechanism 2. The longitudinal linear drive assembly 63 drives the vertical drive assembly 65 to move the cup lid longitudinally to above the cup lid clamping assembly 32. The vertical drive assembly 65 moves downward so as to move the cup lid onto the cup lid clamping assembly 32.

[0069] When the cup lid reaches the end of the cup lid conveying mechanism 2, the vertical clamping and positioning component 22 and the horizontal clamping and positioning component 23 position the cup lid, and then the pneumatic gripper 67 clamps the cup lid. The vertical drive component 65 drives the pneumatic gripper 67 to move upward so that the cup lid is removed from the cup lid conveying mechanism 2. The longitudinal linear drive component 63 drives the vertical drive component 65 to move longitudinally to above the cup lid clamping component 32, and the vertical drive component 65 moves downward to place the cup lid on the cup lid clamping component 32. This application realizes the automatic transfer and precise positioning of the cup lid from the cup lid conveying mechanism 2 to the cup lid clamping component 32, ensuring the stability and accuracy of the cup lid during the transfer process, and improving the automation and efficiency of the packing process.

[0070] This application also discloses a longitudinal linear drive assembly 63 including a linear slide rail 631 disposed on a longitudinal moving plate 62 and a cylinder 632; a longitudinal sliding seat 64 is slidably connected to the linear slide rail 631, and the longitudinal sliding seat 64 is fixedly connected to the output end of the cylinder 632, the cylinder 632 is used to drive the longitudinal sliding seat 64 to reciprocate along the length direction of the linear slide rail 631; the pneumatic gripper 67 is preferably a pneumatic finger, and the vertical drive assembly 65 is preferably a cylinder.

[0071] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 As shown, the cup lid orientation transfer mechanism 7 includes a transverse orientation moving base 71 located at the end of the transfer support frame 61 and above the longitudinal moving plate 62, a transverse linear drive assembly 72 located on the transverse orientation moving base 71, a vertical transfer assembly 73 located on the moving end of the transverse linear drive assembly 72, and an orientation transfer gripper 74 connected to the moving end of the vertical transfer assembly 73.

[0072] The directional transfer gripper 74 is used to clamp the cup lid after it has been oriented on the cup lid rotating mechanism 3. The vertical transfer component 73 is used to drive the cup lid to orientedly disengage from the cup lid rotating mechanism 3 by the directional transfer gripper 74. The horizontal linear drive component 72 is used to drive the vertical transfer component 73 to move the cup lid horizontally to the temporary storage mechanism 4.

[0073] After the cup lid is oriented on the cup lid rotating mechanism 3, the oriented transfer gripper 74 clamps the cup lid, and the vertical transfer component 73 drives the oriented transfer gripper 74 to disengage the cup lid from the cup lid rotating mechanism 3. The horizontal linear drive component 72 drives the vertical transfer component 73 to move horizontally to above the temporary storage mechanism 4, placing the oriented cup lid on the temporary storage mechanism 4. The oriented transfer gripper 74 first moves the cup lid horizontally to the cup lid storage slot 415 on the first storage component 41. The first storage component 41 moves vertically to align the next cup lid storage slot 415 with the oriented transfer gripper 74 horizontally. When the first storage component 41 is full, the oriented transfer gripper 74 moves to above the second storage component 42 to place the cup lids one by one, improving the transfer cycle of the cup lids. This application realizes the oriented transfer of cup lids, improves the oriented transfer efficiency of the packing device, and ensures the uniform oriented placement of cup lids.

[0074] The vertical transfer component 73 is preferably a cylinder.

[0075] Specifically, such as Figure 1 As shown, the cup lid packing mechanism 5 includes a packing and unloading conveying assembly 51, and a transfer mechanical gripper 52 disposed on the packing frame 1 for directional transfer of cup lids on the temporary storage mechanism 4 to the carton on the packing and unloading conveying assembly 51.

[0076] The carton unloading conveyor assembly 51 of this application is used to convey cartons to a designated position. The transfer mechanical gripper 52 is set on the carton frame 1 and is used to transfer the cup lids stored in the temporary storage mechanism 4 to the cartons on the carton unloading conveyor assembly 51. This application not only improves the cartoning efficiency and reduces manual operation, but also ensures the accuracy and neatness of the cup lids in the carton, and improves the automation level and operational reliability of the entire cartoning process.

[0077] The packing and unloading conveyor assembly 51 is preferably a conveyor belt; the transfer mechanical gripper 52 is preferably an industrial robotic arm.

[0078] The implementation principle of a packing device according to an embodiment of this application is as follows:

[0079] The cup lid conveying mechanism 2 is used to convey the assembled cup lid to one side of the cup lid rotating mechanism 3. The cup lid adjusting and transfer mechanism 6 transfers the cup lid onto the cup lid rotating mechanism 3. The cup lid is inserted into the cup lid clamping assembly 32. The rotation drive assembly 31 drives the cup lid clamping assembly 32 to rotate. When the magnetic detection assembly 33 detects the magnet of the cup lid on the cup lid clamping assembly 32, the magnetic detection assembly 33 triggers the rotation drive assembly 31 to stop rotating. The cup lid orientation transfer mechanism 7 moves the positioned cup lid to the temporary storage mechanism 4 and places multiple cup lids in a uniform orientation on the temporary storage mechanism 4. The cup lid boxing mechanism 5 takes out multiple oriented cup lids from the temporary storage mechanism 4 and boxes them. This application ensures the uniform orientation of the cup lids, improves the neatness of the placement and the automation level of the orientation boxing, reduces manual intervention, and improves the boxing efficiency.

[0080] The cup lid clamping assembly 32 is driven to rotate by a rotating fixing frame 311 and a rotating drive component 312. The supporting rotating disk 321 is fixedly connected to the rotating end of the rotating drive component 312. The cup lid magnetic suction component 322 is located in the middle of the supporting rotating disk 321 to attract and fix the cup lid. The detection support frame 331 is located between the supporting rotating disk 321 and the rotating fixing frame 311 and is fixedly connected to the rotating fixing frame 311. The magnetic detection sensor 332 is fixedly connected to the detection support frame 331 and located at the bottom of the supporting rotating disk 321 to detect the magnet on the cup lid. This application realizes precise rotation and angle adjustment of the cup lid, improving the automation level and efficiency of packing.

[0081] The horizontal moving component 411 is connected to the packing frame 1 to drive the storage transfer frame 412 to move horizontally; the cup lid storage tray 413 is set on the storage transfer frame 412, and the cup lid storage tray 413 is provided with a plurality of cup lid storage slots 415 arranged in an array along the length of the cup lid storage tray 413. The cup lid storage slots 415 are used for oriented storage of cup lids that have been oriented; the cup lid detection sensor 414 is connected to the storage transfer frame 412 and inserted into the cup lid storage slot 415, and can detect whether there is a cup lid stored in the cup lid storage slot 415; this design realizes the orderly storage and rapid detection of cup lids, and improves the automation level and operating efficiency of the temporary storage mechanism 4.

[0082] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
