[0030] Some embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. In the absence of conflict, the features of the following embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0031] Embodiment 1:

[0032] An integrated operating system for automatic feeding, detection and collection of dinner plates, comprising: a feeding device 10, a detection device 30 arranged on the right side of the feeding device 10, and a collecting device 40 arranged on the right side of the detection device 30; the feeding device 10 comprises a collecting device 11, a material taking device 12 arranged below the collecting device 11, and a conveying device 13 arranged between the material taking device 12 and the collecting device 11; the detection device 30 comprises a detection box 31, a bottom surface detector 32 installed on the detection box 31, a front surface detector 33 arranged on the left side of the bottom surface detector 32, and a conveying device 2 34 arranged under the front surface detector 33; the collecting device 40 comprises an adsorption conveying device 41, a material removing device 42 installed on the adsorption conveying device 41, a material stacking device 43 arranged under the material removing device 42, and a conveying device 3 44 arranged under the material stacking device 43; the bottom surface detector 32 is arranged under the adsorption conveying device 41.

[0033] like Figure 1As shown, the present embodiment has two loading devices 10. In order to allow the dinner plates on the two loading devices 10 to enter the detection device 30 in sequence, a paralleling device 20 is provided between the loading device 10 and the detection device 30. The paralleling device 20 can allow the dinner plates on the paralleling devices 20 at the same time to enter the detection device 30 in sequence according to the paralleling distance.

[0034] Furthermore, the paralleling device 20 includes a conveying device 21 and a guide track 22 installed on the conveying device 21. When two plates are taken off from the two feeding devices 10 at the same time, they are simultaneously conveyed to the conveying device 21. After the upper plate contacts the guide track 22, it moves along the guide track 22. Figure 1 , the guide track 22 is a semi-Y line. At this time, the movement distance of the upper plate will be greater than the linear movement of the lower plate. Therefore, on the same conveying device 21, the speed is the same, and the time required to move to the path opposite to the detection device 30 is different. Therefore, when the upper plate arrives on the path of the lower plate, the lower plate is in front of the upper plate. In this way, the plates can enter the detection device 30 one by one.

[0035] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the collecting device 11 in the feeding device 10 can be adjusted according to the size of the current punched plate, so that the collecting device 11 can just meet the size of the current plate. In this way, when the punched plate enters the collecting device 11, the plate will not flip over during the falling process due to the excessive size of the collecting device 11, nor will the plate be unable to fall smoothly due to the small size of the collecting device 11.

[0036] Further, such as Figure 2 As shown, the collecting device 11 mainly adjusts the size of the dinner plate through the guide rods 116 on the multiple movers 115 . In this embodiment, four movers 115 are provided, so there are four guide rods 116 , and the dinner plate falls between the four guide rods 116 .

[0037] Furthermore, in order to realize the plate size adjustment function of the collecting device 11, an adjusting device 111 is installed on the bottom plate 112, and the adjusting device 111 is connected to the positioning plate 114, and then the positioning plate 114 is guided by a guide shaft 113 on the bottom plate 112; when the size needs to be adjusted, the adjusting device 111 is rotated to move the positioning plate 114 under the guidance of the guide shaft 113. At this time, the four movers 115 connected to the positioning plate 114 will move inward or outward at the same time, so that the four guide rods 116 installed on the four movers 115 will move inward or outward at the same time. When moving inward, the size of the plate is reduced, and when moving outward, the size of the plate is enlarged.

[0038] Further, such as Figure 3 As shown, the adjusting device 111 is mainly installed on the base plate 112 through the fixing block 1111, and is adjusted through the adjusting nut 1112 installed on the fixing block 1111. During adjustment, the adjusting nut 1112 is rotated to rotate the screw rod 1113 installed on the adjusting nut 1112, thereby driving the driving shaft 1114 threadedly connected to the screw rod 1113 to move on the screw rod 1113, thereby driving the positioning plate 114 installed on the driving shaft 1114 to move.

[0039] Further, such as Figure 4 As shown, in order to realize the simultaneous inward or outward movement of the four guide rods 116 installed on the four movers 115, a slide groove base 1151 is fixed on the bottom plate 112, and the slider 1152 is installed in the slide groove of the slide groove base 1151, and the slider 1152 and the positioning plate 114 are connected through the guide shaft 1153. The adjusting device 111 is connected to the positioning plate 114 through the driving shaft 1114. When the adjusting nut 1112 is rotated, the driving shaft 1114 drives the positioning plate 114 to move forward or reversely. The movement of the positioning plate 114 can drive the slider 1152 to move inward or outward in the slide groove of the slide groove base 1151 through the guide shaft 1153. The guide rod 116 is installed on the slider 1152. At this time, the four guide rods 116 will move inward or outward with the slider 1152.

[0040] Further, such as Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the material picking device 12 includes a material picking electric cylinder 121 and a suction nipple 122 installed on the material picking electric cylinder 121; when the material picking electric cylinder 121 rises, the suction nipple 122 sucks the dinner plate in the collecting device 11. Note that during this process, the suction nipple 122 does not contact the dinner plate, and the dinner plate can be sucked onto the conveying device 13; in order to increase the suction force, the suction nipple 122 can adopt a large-flow Bernoulli nipple.

[0041] Further, such as Figure 7 As shown, the adsorption conveying device 41 includes a driving motor 411, and the driving motor 411 is connected to the driving shaft 412. The driving shaft 412 is connected to the driven shaft 413 through a conveyor belt 414. In this embodiment, two conveyor belts 414 are provided, and a negative pressure device 416 is provided under each conveyor belt 414. The two negative pressure devices 416 are installed between the driving shaft 412 and the driven shaft 413. In order to provide adsorption force to the dinner plate through the conveyor belt 414, an air vent 415 is opened on the conveyor belt 414, and the adsorption force is transmitted to the dinner plate through the air vent 415.

[0042] like Figure 1As shown, when the food plate is conveyed to the conveying device 2 34, the front detector 33 first detects the front of the food plate. After the detection of the front of the food plate, it is adsorbed onto the two conveyor belts 414 by the negative pressure device 416. When it passes through the bottom detector 32, the bottom of the food plate is detected. After the detection is completed, it is conveyed to the bottom of the material removal device 42.

[0043] Further, such as Figure 1 and Figure 8 As shown, the material removal device 42 is installed on the inner side of the two negative pressure devices 416 through an L-shaped plate 421; when the meal plate is transported to the bottom of the material removal device 42, the driving cylinder 422 in the material removal device 42 is started, driving the material removal plate 423 installed on the driving cylinder 422 to rotate downward, and when the material removal plate 423 hits the meal plate and lifts the meal plate downward, the negative pressure of the meal plate is reduced, and the meal plate falls into the stacking device 43 under its own weight.

[0044] Further, such as Figure 1 and Fig. 9 As shown, the stacking device 43 is installed on the outside of the two negative pressure devices 416 through the connecting plate 431; when the meal tray is knocked down by the knocking plate 423, it falls into the silo 432 on the connecting plate 431 by its own weight. Specifically, support members 433 are inserted on both sides of the silo 432, and the support members 433 and the silo 432 are inclined. In this way, when the meal trays fall onto the support members 433 of the silo 432 in turn, they will be stacked in turn under their own weight according to their own geometric shapes. When a certain number of them are stacked, the unloading cylinder 434 installed on the support members 433 is started to open the two support members 433, and the stacked meal trays can fall onto the conveying device three 44, completing the entire automated material collection process.

[0045] The above is only a specific embodiment of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily thought of by a person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention shall be subject to the protection scope of the claims.
