[0002] At present, when counting materials on material trays in factories, the commonly used counting equipment not only requires manual transportation of material carts, but also requires manual classification of defective products on the material trays, resulting in low operating efficiency. At the same time, the processing flow of material trays mostly adopts belt line transmission, which not only has a slow flow speed, but also occupies a large space. The information of the material tray cannot be obtained in real time, and one-to-one positioning cannot be performed. When counting, labeling and unloading operations are performed, most of them are also completed on the belt line, and the manipulator needs to repeatedly clamp or lower the material tray for handling operations before counting and unloading operations can be performed. This is not only easy to damage the product, but also causes a large number of defective products, affecting the quality of the operation. Therefore, how to avoid manual operations, improve the degree of automation of equipment, and the efficiency of loading and unloading, so that defective products can be automatically and accurately divided is a problem that people in this field need to solve.

Exemplarily, the labeling device 60 in this embodiment is also provided with a third coordinate component, whereby the labeling component 62 can change its position along the XYZ axis under the action of the third coordinate component, and then accurately pick up and place the label 601 according to the parameters transmitted by the CCD camera 61. Optionally, the suction end 621 of the labeling component 62 is also configured as a suction cup structure, so as to ensure the stable grasping and transfer of the label 601. Furthermore, the lifting component 64 is moved up and down by a cylinder, and the bottom position of the lifting component 64 is adjustable and arranged on the base, and the marking machine 63 is also installed on the base accordingly, so as to ensure the stability of the labeling process.

[0064] The following is a detailed description of the process of using the method for high-speed online X-ray automatic material counting in this embodiment.

[0065] The method for using the high-speed online X-ray automatic counting device includes the following steps:

[0066] After the material cart 21 in the high-speed online X-ray automatic counting device is filled with material trays 204, it is placed at the loading station 201, and two empty material carts 21 are placed at the unloading station 202 and the NG station 203 in sequence;

[0067] The material tray 204 is lifted to a first preset height by the lifting mechanism 23 in the loading and unloading system, and the support tray 24 on the material cart 21 at the unloading station 202 and the NG station 203 is lifted to a second preset height;

[0068] The first material tray 204 is transferred to the loading area 401 in the rotating device 40 by the transport device 30, and the hollow rotating table 45 in the rotating device 40 drives the mounting plate 41 to rotate 90 degrees, so that the material tray 204 flows from the loading area 401 to the material counting area 402, and the material counting device 50 performs material counting operation on the material tray 204 in the material counting area 402, and at the same time, the transport device 30 transports the second material tray 204 to the loading area 401;

[0069] The mounting plate 41 is driven to rotate 90°, so that the material tray 204 that has been tapped flows from the material tapping area 402 to the labeling area 403 for labeling by the labeling device 60, and the material tray 204 that has not been tapped flows from the material loading area 401 to the material tapping area 402 for tapping by the material tapping device 50, and at the same time, the third material tray 204 is transferred to the material loading area 401;

[0070] Continue to drive the mounting plate 41 to rotate 90 degrees, and transfer the qualified tray 205 in the labeled tray 204 to the material cart 21 at the unloading station 202 through the handling device 30, or transfer the NG tray 206 to the material cart 21 at the NG station 203;

[0071] Repeat the above steps until all trays 204 are processed.

[0072] Specifically, under the action of the conveying component 22 in the loading and unloading system, it can be determined whether the material cart 21 is placed in place, and the material tray 204 and the support tray 24 can be lifted by the lifting mechanism 23, which can facilitate the rapid handling effect of the subsequent handling device 30. Furthermore, in this embodiment, a barcode scanning camera can also be set at the top of the working room 100, and the barcode scanning camera is placed above the loading area 401, and then the barcode scanning camera can be used to scan the material tray 204 in each loading area 401 to obtain the information of each material tray 204 and transmit it to the background, so as to achieve a one-to-one traceability effect. For example, after the subsequent labeling device 60 performs the labeling operation, the second gripper 321 can place the qualified material tray 205 or NG material tray 206 determined by the material counting device 50 in the material cart 21 in the corresponding workstation, so as to realize the automatic material counting operation in a cycle. Furthermore, after all the trays 204 in the loading station 201 are processed, the AGV can be used to transport the empty material cart 21 away and transport a new full material cart 21 for continuous work. Therefore, this embodiment realizes the functions of automatic loading and unloading, automatic code scanning, automatic labeling, and automatic sorting of defective products under the automated operation of the high-speed online X-ray automatic counting equipment, and the entire process does not require manual intervention, which greatly improves work efficiency, reduces dependence on manual operations, reduces labor costs, and improves the counting speed, thereby improving overall production capacity. The high-speed online X-ray automatic counting equipment in this embodiment is reasonably designed, compact in structure, highly automated, simple in motion process, and occupies a small space, which can effectively reduce costs.
