[0095] The core of the present invention is to provide an automatic box loading device to improve loading efficiency.
[0096] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of the present invention, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and implementation modes.
[0097] Please refer to Figures 1 to 28 .
[0098] In a specific embodiment, the automatic box loading device provided by the present application includes a primary pitch changing mechanism, a secondary pitch changing mechanism, a box loading mechanism and a material unloading mechanism. The primary pitch changing mechanism is used to adjust the X-direction spacing between adjacent materials arranged in an array; the secondary pitch changing mechanism is used to adjust the Y-direction spacing between adjacent materials arranged in an array; the primary pitch changing mechanism is used to flip the materials after the X-direction pitch changing to the position of the secondary pitch changing mechanism, with the X and Y directions being perpendicular. The box loading mechanism is used to box the materials after the pitch changing; and the material unloading mechanism is used to output the materials after box loading.
[0099] Specifically, the unloading mechanism includes an unloading assembly line E2, and the automatic boxing equipment also includes an loading assembly line E1, and the loading assembly line E1 and the unloading assembly line E2 can both be conveyor belts, and the two are arranged in parallel. The loading assembly line E1 and the unloading assembly line E2 are both used to convey the material boxes, and the movement directions of the two are exactly opposite.
[0100] In order to prevent the material box placed on the feeding assembly line E1 from being filled with materials, preferably, the feeding assembly line E1 is provided with an anti-fool device, which is connected to the feeding assembly line E1, and the anti-fool device includes a shielding structure provided on the feeding assembly line E1. When there is no material in the material box, the material box can pass smoothly under the shielding structure. When there is material in the material box, the material is shielded by the shielding structure, and the feeding assembly line E1 stops working. Specifically, a pressure sensor is provided on the shielding structure. When there is material in the material box, the material is shielded by the shielding structure. After the pressure sensor senses the pressure, the controller connected to the pressure sensor controls the feeding assembly line E1 to stop working.
[0101] In order to facilitate material transportation, the automatic boxing equipment further includes a transport mechanism, which is used to transport the materials boxed by the boxing mechanism to the unloading mechanism. Specifically, the transport mechanism includes a manipulator F1, which can move horizontally and vertically.
[0102] When materials need to be boxed, the X-direction spacing of adjacent materials arranged in an array is first adjusted through the primary pitch-changing mechanism, and then the materials after the X-distance change are vertically rotated to the position of the secondary pitch-changing mechanism through the primary pitch-changing mechanism. Then, the Y-direction spacing of adjacent materials arranged in an array is adjusted through the secondary pitch-changing mechanism. After two pitch changes, the materials whose spacing meets the boxing requirements are loaded into the boxing mechanism. After the boxing mechanism completes the material device requirements, the boxing mechanism is output through the unloading mechanism.
[0103] It can be seen from the above description that in the automatic cartoning equipment provided in the specific embodiment of the present application, the distance of the material is changed to a distance that meets the cartoning requirements through the primary distance changing mechanism and the secondary distance changing mechanism, and the cartoned material can be output through the unloading mechanism, without the need for manual cartoning by staff. Therefore, the automatic cartoning equipment provided by the present application reduces the labor intensity of cartoning materials.
[0104] In a specific embodiment, the primary pitch changing mechanism includes a first pitch changing mechanism A2 and a box loading mechanism, and the first pitch changing mechanism A2 is used to dock with an external device for producing consumables. Specifically, the docking surface of the first pitch changing mechanism A2 and the external device for producing consumables C1 can be arranged perpendicular to the horizontal direction or can also be arranged horizontally.
[0105] The first pitch changing mechanism A2 includes a first pitch changing component and a channel for carrying a plurality of consumables C1, wherein the first pitch changing component is used to change the X-direction spacing of the consumables C1 in adjacent channels. The first pitch changing component can drive each channel to change pitch through a linear motor or a telescopic cylinder.
[0106] like Figure 3 As shown, multiple channels are arranged along the first direction, wherein the number of channels is the same as the number of rows of consumables C1 arranged along the first direction, and the X direction is parallel to the first direction. The first pitch-changing mechanism A2 is used to change the spacing of the consumables C1 arranged in an array in the first direction.
[0107] The box loading mechanism is used to box the multiple consumables after the pitch is changed. Specifically, the box loading mechanism can be a manipulator provided with a suction nozzle. After the consumable C1 is loaded into the filter element after the pitch is changed, the consumable C1 is sucked out by the suction nozzle for box loading.
[0108] When the consumables C1 need to be boxed, the first pitch-changing mechanism A2 is connected to the external equipment producing the consumables C1 to take out the consumables C1, and the first pitch-changing component is used to change the spacing of the consumables C1 in adjacent channels. The boxing mechanism is used to box the multiple consumables C1 after the pitch change.
[0109] From the above description, it can be seen that in the single-pitch variable mechanism provided in the specific embodiment of the present application, the consumables C1 on the external equipment for producing the consumables C1 are varied in pitch by the first pitch variable mechanism A2, so that the consumables C1 meet the boxing requirements, and the consumables C1 after the pitch change are directly boxed by the boxing mechanism, avoiding the situation where the staff manually boxing. Therefore, the single-pitch variable mechanism provided in the present application improves the boxing efficiency.
[0110] In a specific embodiment, the first variable pitch assembly includes a mounting plate A2010, a first cylinder assembly and a second cylinder assembly, and the first cylinder assembly and the second cylinder assembly are both installed on the mounting plate A2010. The first cylinder assembly and the second cylinder assembly are used to adjust the spacing of the consumables C1 on adjacent channels. Specifically, the first cylinder assembly and the second cylinder assembly are used to adjust different channels.
[0111] Preferably, both the first cylinder assembly and the second cylinder assembly are provided with rodless cylinders.
[0112] In a specific embodiment, the consumables C1 arranged along the first direction in each channel are divided into two groups, namely the first group and the second group; the first cylinder assembly is configured to adjust the spacing between the consumables of the first group along the first direction, and the second cylinder assembly is configured to adjust the spacing between the consumables of the second group along the first direction.
[0113] In a specific embodiment, in order to avoid interference between the channel and the main parts of the first cylinder assembly and the second cylinder assembly, preferably, the mounting plate A2010 has a first surface and a second surface, the first surface and the second surface of the mounting plate A2010 are arranged back to back, and the channel is arranged outside the second surface.
[0114] The first cylinder assembly includes a first cylinder A202 and a first push block. The first cylinder A202 is installed on the first surface. The first end of the first push block is installed on the telescopic end of the first cylinder A202, and the second end is located outside the second surface. The first push block adjusts the spacing between the first group of consumables.
[0115] The second cylinder assembly includes a second cylinder A201 and a second push block. The second cylinder A201 is installed on the first surface. The first end of the second push block is installed on the telescopic end of the second cylinder A201, and the second end is located outside the second surface. The second push block adjusts the spacing between the second group of consumables.
[0116] In a specific embodiment, the channel includes a primary variable pitch sliding plate A203, and a plurality of primary variable pitch sliding plates A203 are provided. The primary variable pitch sliding plates A203 are slidably mounted on the second surface of the mounting plate A2010, and the plurality of primary variable pitch sliding plates A203 are arranged in sequence along the first direction, such as Figure 2 As shown, all the primary variable pitch sliding plates A203 are arranged in sequence along the first direction.
[0117] In order to improve the sliding stability of the single-pitch variable sliding plate A203, a guide rail cooperating with the single-pitch variable sliding plate A203 is provided on the mounting plate A2010, and multiple guide rails can be provided, and the multiple guide rails are distributed along the second direction. Each single-pitch variable sliding plate A203 is provided with multiple suction nozzles along the second direction, and the first direction and the second direction are perpendicular; the suction nozzles on all the single-pitch variable sliding plates A203 are arranged in an array, and preferably, the suction nozzles on all the single-pitch variable sliding plates A203 are arranged in an array. The single-pitch variable sliding plate A203 can be driven to move by a driving device, and the driving device can be a linear motor or a telescopic cylinder. Alternatively, the single-pitch variable sliding plate A203 is driven to move by the first cylinder A202 and the second cylinder A201.
[0118] All the one-time variable pitch sliding plates A203 are divided into two groups along the first direction, namely the third group and the fourth group. The first group of consumables are installed on the suction nozzles on the third group of one-time variable pitch sliding plates A203, and the second group of consumables are installed on the suction nozzles on the fourth group of one-time variable pitch sliding plates A203. Specifically, the number of suction nozzles is the same as the number of consumables C1. When in use, the consumables C1 are sucked one by one by the suction nozzles.
[0119] In a specific embodiment, the primary pitch changing mechanism further includes a pressure gauge A1. Each primary pitch changing sliding plate A203 is provided with a suction hole connected to the suction nozzle thereon. The pressure gauge A1 is used to measure the air pressure of the suction hole. The pressure gauge A1 is connected to the primary pitch changing sliding plate A203 in a one-to-one correspondence. Each primary pitch changing sliding plate A203 is connected with a pressure gauge A1, so that it is convenient to know in time whether the air pressure meets the requirements when the primary pitch changing sliding plate A203 is used. At the same time, the location where the air pressure problem exists can be timely repaired according to the value of the pressure gauge A1.
[0120] Preferably, the barometer A1 is connected to the alarm module. The function of the barometer A1 is to display the current negative pressure of the nozzle. If the consumable C1 is lost during operation, the corresponding barometer A1 will have an abnormal reading. At this time, the alarm module will sound an alarm, such as using light or sound alarm.
[0121] Each primary variable pitch sliding plate A203 is provided with an air suction hole, and all suction nozzles on the primary variable pitch sliding plate A203 are connected to the air suction hole. Specifically, the air suction hole is arranged at the top of the primary variable pitch sliding plate A203.
[0122] In order to facilitate the ejection of the consumables C1 after the first pitch change, in a specific embodiment, the first pitch change mechanism further includes a punching mechanism A5, which includes a punching plate A501 and a pushing assembly A502. The pushing assembly A502 drives the punching plate A501 to move and eject the consumables C1 after the first pitch change mechanism A2, and the pushing assembly A502 is installed on the mounting plate A2010. The number of punching plates A501 depends on the number of rows of consumables C1, such as Figure 2As shown, when eight rows of consumables C1 are provided, eight material feeding plates A501 are provided.
[0123] In a specific embodiment, material feeding holes are provided at positions corresponding to each nozzle on the material feeding mechanism A5, and the material feeding holes are in clearance fit with the nozzles. The material feeding assembly 502 drives the material feeding plate A501 to move, and the end face of the material feeding plate A501 contacts the consumables C1, and the consumables C1 after pitch variation on the first pitch variation mechanism A2 are pushed out.
[0124] In another embodiment, as Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, a U-shaped limiting channel extending in the first direction along the length direction is provided on the material feeding plate A501. The U-shaped limiting channel can pass through the nozzles on the same row of channels, and the free end of the nozzle passes through the U-shaped limiting channel and then installs the consumables C1, and the surface of the U-shaped limiting channel can abut against the end face of the consumables C1.
[0125] To reduce the length of the U-shaped limiting channel, preferably, when all the first pitch variation sliding plates A203 are in the pre-pitch-variation state, some of the first pitch variation sliding plates A203 are located outside the U-shaped limiting channel. After all the first pitch variation sliding plates A203 are pitch-varied, all the first pitch variation sliding plates A203 are located in the U-shaped limiting channel to realize the material feeding action through the material feeding plate A501.
[0126] Considering that the material feeding plate A501 is too long, especially the free end far from the material pushing assembly A502 is prone to deformation. Preferably, an extension plate extending in the first direction is provided at the conveying end of the material pushing assembly A502, and all the material feeding plates A501 are installed on the extension plate, thereby shortening the length of the material feeding plate A501.
[0127] In a specific embodiment, the first pitch variation mechanism further includes a negative pressure assembly and a control valve A7. The two opposite sides of the gas path of the control valve A7 are respectively communicated with the negative pressure assembly and the nozzle. Specifically, the negative pressure assembly can be a vacuum pump or a blower capable of generating negative pressure. The control valve A7 is used to control the on-off of the gas path connecting the negative pressure assembly and the nozzle, and at the same time control the intake of the nozzle to facilitate pushing out the material C1. As Figures 7 and 8 shown, the control valve A7 includes a power cylinder A701. The piston rod of the power cylinder A701 drives the piston A704 to reciprocate in the piston chamber to realize the communication between the negative pressure port A702 connected to the negative pressure assembly and the gas path on-off outlet A706 and the negative pressure distribution joint A705. The gas path on-off outlet A706 is used for pressure relief at the nozzle position. The negative pressure port A702 is communicated with the negative pressure assembly, the nozzle is communicated with the piston chamber A703, and the piston chamber A703 is provided with a negative pressure distribution joint A705 connected to the first pitch variation sliding plate A203 one by one.
[0128] For ease of understanding, the following is an explanation of the working principle and process of the control valve A7: When the primary pitch mechanism requires negative pressure, when the negative pressure port A702 is connected to the negative pressure distribution joint A705, negative pressure is introduced, and the suction nozzle of the primary pitch mechanism is connected to the negative pressure. When the primary pitch mechanism does not need negative pressure, the negative pressure distribution joint A705 is connected to the air path on-off outlet A706, and negative pressure is discharged from the air path on-off outlet A706, and the negative pressure in the suction nozzle disappears. The working principle is similar to that of a large-capacity solenoid valve.
[0129] In a specific embodiment, the first distance changing mechanism A2 also includes an end limit block A2011, and the first distance changing assembly includes a mounting plate A2010, a first connecting member A2012, a first telescopic assembly, a first sliding plate A209 and a second sliding plate A204, wherein the first telescopic assembly can be a telescopic cylinder, for example, the first telescopic assembly is a first cylinder assembly, the first sliding plate A209 and the second sliding plate A204 are arranged sequentially along a first direction, the end limit block A2011 is installed on the mounting plate A2010, and the first sliding plate A209 and the second sliding plate A204 are arranged on the back side thereof and can respectively abut against the end limit block A2011.
[0130] The side of the first sliding plate A209 away from the second sliding plate A204 is connected to the telescopic end of the first telescopic assembly. Specifically, the first sliding plate A209 can be connected to the first push block. At this time, the first cylinder A202 drives the first sliding plate A209 and the second sliding plate A204 to reciprocate. The first connecting member A2012 is fixedly connected to the second sliding plate A204. One end of the first connecting member A2012 is slidably connected to the first sliding plate A209. Specifically, the first sliding plate A209 is provided with a first through hole that slidably cooperates with the first connecting member A2012. The first connecting member A2012 is provided with a first baffle A2014. Specifically, the first connecting member A2012 is fixedly connected to the first baffle A2014. The first baffle A2014 can abut against the side of the first sliding plate A209 away from the second sliding plate A204 to drive the second sliding plate A204 to slide.
[0131] In a specific embodiment, the first distance changing mechanism A2 also includes a first stop block A205 and a second stop block A207, and the first distance changing assembly also includes a second telescopic assembly, a second connecting member A2013, and a third sliding plate A206 and a fourth sliding plate A208 arranged sequentially along the first direction. Specifically, the second telescopic assembly can be a telescopic cylinder, for example, the second telescopic assembly is a second cylinder assembly.
[0132] The first stopper A205 and the second stopper A207 are both mounted on the mounting plate A2010.
[0133] The fourth sliding plate A208 is connected to the telescopic end of the second telescopic assembly. Specifically, the fourth sliding plate A208 is fixedly connected to the second push block, and the fourth sliding plate A208 and the third sliding plate A206 are driven to reciprocate through the second cylinder A202. The second connecting member A2013 is slidably connected to the third sliding plate A206, and one end of the second connecting member A2013 is fixedly connected to the fourth sliding plate A208; the other end of the second connecting member A2013 is provided with a second baffle A2015 that can abut against the third sliding plate A206 to drive the third sliding plate A206 to slide.
[0134] The end of the third sliding plate A206 is located between the first stopper A205 and the second stopper A207, and is limited by the first stopper A205 and the second stopper A207. The first sliding plate A209 is located between the end limit block A2011 and the first stopper A205.
[0135] The third sliding plate A206 is located between the second sliding plate A204 and the fourth sliding plate A208, that is, along the first direction, the first sliding plate A209, the second sliding plate A204, the third sliding plate A206 and the fourth sliding plate A208 are arranged in sequence.
[0136] When the first pitch changing mechanism A2 is docked with the external production consumables equipment, the first sliding plate A209 abuts against the end stopper A2011, and the third sliding plate A206 abuts against the second stopper A207; when the first pitch changing mechanism A2 completes the pitch changing, the first sliding plate A209, the second sliding plate A204, the third sliding plate A206 and the fourth sliding plate A208 abut in sequence, and the third sliding plate A206 abuts against the first stopper A205. That is, when the pitch is changed, the two first cylinders and the second cylinder push the first sliding plate A209, the second sliding plate A204, the third sliding plate A206 and the fourth sliding plate A208 toward the middle until the third sliding plate A206 abuts against the first stopper A205, and the first sliding plate A209, the second sliding plate A204, the third sliding plate A206 and the fourth sliding plate A208 abut against each other, at which time the first sliding plate A209 is isolated from the first stopper A2014, and the pitch changing is completed. After that, the suction nozzle takes in air and no longer generates suction force on the material. The material is knocked out of the suction nozzle through the knocking mechanism A5.
[0137] When the pitch change is completed and reset, the first sliding plate A209 and the fourth sliding plate A208 move in opposite directions. After moving a certain distance, the first sliding plate A209 abuts against the first baffle A2014, and the first sliding plate A209 pulls the second sliding plate A204 to slide until the first sliding plate A209 abuts against the end limit block A2011; at the same time, after the fourth sliding plate A208 moves a certain distance, the fourth sliding plate A208 abuts against the second baffle A2015, and the fourth sliding plate A208 pulls the third sliding plate A206 to move until the third sliding plate A206 abuts against the second baffle A207. At this time, the first pitch change sliding plate A203 is reset to the position docking with the external equipment for producing consumables C1.
[0138] In order to improve the pitch change accuracy of consumable C1, it is preferred that the first pitch change sliding plate A203 is precision milled, for example, the width of the first pitch change sliding plate A203 is 9 mm, and the first pitch change sliding plate A203 before pitch change is the distance for docking the injection molding robot arm, and the distance for docking the box is changed (9 mm).
[0139] Considering that the consumable C1 needs to change the pitch in the Y direction perpendicular to the X direction in the secondary pitch changing mechanism after changing the pitch in the X direction, preferably, the primary pitch changing mechanism also includes a lifting module A4 and a hollow rotating platform A3 for driving the first pitch changing mechanism A2 to rotate, and the lifting module A4 is installed at the lifting end of the hollow rotating platform A3, and the hollow rotating platform A3 is used to rotate the first pitch changing mechanism A2 clockwise downward 90 degrees to dock with the secondary pitch changing mechanism. The lifting module A4 is lifted and lowered by the wiring drag chain A6, and the lifting module A4 is installed on the frame as a whole.
[0140] For ease of understanding, the following is an explanation of the working principle and process of the first pitch-changing mechanism: the injection molding machine's mechanical arm with a gun head is in place (4x8=32 holes, and the X-axis and Y-axis gaps of the 32 holes are both greater than 9mm), and the suction nozzle of the first pitch-changing mechanism A2 sucks in the filament C1 by the negative pressure in the cavity (the negative pressure component generates negative pressure). After docking, the arrayed filament C1 is pitched along the X-axis direction, and the spacing of the filament C1 in the X-axis direction is reduced to 9mm (to meet the gap of 9mmx9mm for streamlined box loading). Under the action of the hollow rotating platform A3, the first pitch-changing mechanism is rotated in the X-axis direction. Rotate 90 degrees clockwise, the lifting module A4 drives the hollow rotating platform A3 and the first pitch changing mechanism to move downward, and the gun head docks with the secondary pitch changing mechanism below. After docking, the negative pressure in the nozzle is closed, the punching mechanism is started, and the punching plate A501, under the action of the pushing component A502, pushes the consumable C1 downward to the secondary pitch changing mechanism. After the action is completed, it resets, and the lifting module A4 drives the hollow rotating platform A3 and the first pitch changing mechanism to move upward. Under the action of the hollow rotating platform A3, the first pitch changing mechanism rotates 90 degrees counterclockwise, and the channel returns to the distance with the docking injection molding robot arm.
[0141] like Figures 10 to 15As shown, in a specific embodiment, the secondary pitch changing mechanism includes a consumable material carrying assembly and a second pitch changing assembly B1, and the second pitch changing assembly B1 is configured to change the pitch of the consumable material C1 in the Y direction after the first pitch changing assembly completes the first pitch changing, and the X direction and the Y direction are perpendicular.
[0142] The consumable material carrying assembly includes a plurality of carrying members B11 arranged along a third direction. The second variable distance assembly B1 is connected to the consumable material carrying assembly and is used to change the spacing between adjacent consumables on adjacent carrying members B11 along the Y direction. The Y direction is parallel to the third direction. Each carrying member B11 is provided with a plurality of carrying positions distributed along a fourth direction and used to carry consumable C1.
[0143] The number of carrying positions on each carrier B11 is equal to the number of consumables C1 in each row, and the consumables C1 correspond to the carrying positions one by one. The number of carriers B11 needs to be equal to the number of rows of consumables C1 to be carried. For example, when the consumables C1 are arranged in eight rows, eight carriers B11 are arranged. The consumables C1 can be gun tips in medical devices.
[0144] The third direction is perpendicular to the fourth direction. To facilitate placement of the consumables C1 , preferably, the third direction and the fourth direction both extend in the horizontal direction.
[0145] The second variable pitch component B1 is connected to the consumables carrying component, and is used to change the spacing between adjacent consumables C1 on adjacent carrying parts B11 along the Y direction to achieve Y-direction spacing, wherein the X direction and the Y direction are perpendicular. The second variable pitch component B1 enables the consumables C1 after the spacing is changed to meet the subsequent boxing or assembly spacing requirements. The second variable pitch component B1 can specifically drive the carrying component to move through a linear motor.
[0146] In a specific embodiment, the secondary pitch changing mechanism further includes an area detection device B3, which is disposed beside the carrier B11 and is used to detect whether consumables C1 exist at the positions of multiple carriers B11. Specifically, the area detection device B3 can detect by light, for example, the area detection device B3 is a matrix sensor B5.
[0147] In a specific embodiment, the area detection device B3 includes a transmitter B301 and a receiver B302 for receiving the signal of the transmitter B301. The transmitter B301 and the receiver B302 are arranged at opposite ends of the consumables storage space formed by all the carriers B11, and the coverage of the transmitter B301 includes the consumables storage space. In order to facilitate the detection of the entire consumables C1 area, preferably, at least two transmitters B301 and receivers B302 are provided, and the transmitters B301 and receivers B302 correspond one to one along the third direction.
[0148] Specifically, of course, the transmitting unit B301 and the receiving unit B302 may also be arranged along the fourth direction.
[0149] In a specific embodiment, the transmitting part B301 and the receiving part B302 are connected to the optical fiber amplifier B303 for amplifying the signal. The area detection device B3 is connected to the control module, and the control module is connected to the alarm module. If the gun tip is not removed, the area detection device B3 recognizes the sending signal value control module, and the control module controls the alarm module to sound an alarm. At this time, the machine is stopped and the machine is operated to prevent the risk of collision.
[0150] When the automatic boxing device for consumables is needed, the area detection device B3 is first used to detect whether there is consumable C1 at the position of the carrier B11. If there is, the consumable C1 is first taken out. If not, the consumable C1 is placed at the preset position of the carrier B11. Then, the distance between adjacent consumables C1 in adjacent carriers B11 is changed by the second distance changing component B1. After the distance change is completed, the multiple consumables C1 after the distance change are boxed by the boxing mechanism.
[0151] It can be known from the above description that in the automatic box loading device for consumables provided in the specific embodiment of the present application, the area detection device B3 is used to detect whether there is consumable C1 at the position of the carrier B11, so as to avoid the situation where the consumable C1 at the position of the carrier B11 conflicts with the consumable C1 installed subsequently when the consumable C1 is not uniformly installed at the position of the carrier B11. The consumable C1 is uniformly changed to a spacing that meets the box loading requirements by the second variable distance component B1. The consumable C1 is boxed by the box loading mechanism, and compared with the situation where the operator manually boxes the consumable C1, the automatic box loading device for consumables provided by the present application improves the box loading efficiency.
[0152] In a specific embodiment, the second variable pitch component B1 includes a telescopic cylinder B01, a sliding module and a limit block B103. Specifically, the telescopic cylinder B01 can be a hydraulic cylinder or a pneumatic cylinder. For example, the telescopic cylinder B01 is a rodless pneumatic cylinder. The sliding module includes a plurality of secondary variable pitch sliding plates B102. The secondary variable pitch sliding plates B102 are arranged in sequence along the arrangement direction of the bearing member B11. The upper end of the secondary variable pitch sliding plate B102 forms a bearing member B11. The bearing position is set on the secondary variable pitch sliding plate B102. Specifically, the bearing position can be a consumable mounting hole set on the secondary variable pitch sliding plate B102. In order to make each secondary variable pitch sliding plate B102 slide smoothly, it also includes a guide rail B105 set at the bottom end of the secondary variable pitch sliding plate B102 and slidingly matched with the secondary variable pitch sliding plate B102. Preferably, two guide rails B105 are set in parallel along the fourth direction.
[0153] Adjacent secondary variable pitch sliding plates B102 are slidably connected in sequence through independently arranged connecting members B104. Specifically, the rod portion of the connecting member B104 is slidably connected to the secondary variable pitch sliding plate B102, and the end of the rod portion is provided with a limit block B103 abutting against the secondary variable pitch sliding plate B102. When the limit block B103 abuts against the secondary variable pitch sliding plate B102, the secondary variable pitch sliding plate B102 is driven to slide.
[0154] The telescopic cylinder B01 is fixedly connected to the secondary variable pitch sliding plate B102 at one end of the sliding module to drive all the secondary variable pitch sliding plates B102 to slide. Specifically, the consumables automatic boxing equipment also includes a slot-type photoelectric B7, two slot-type photoelectric B7s are provided, the slot-type photoelectric B7 is connected to the telescopic cylinder B01, and the secondary variable pitch sliding plate B102 fixedly connected to the telescopic cylinder B01 is located between the two slot-type photoelectric B7s. When the secondary variable pitch sliding plate B102 touches the slot-type photoelectric B7, the sliding module changes its pitch to the right position or returns to the initial working position, and the telescopic cylinder B01 stops working.
[0155] The limit block B103 and the telescopic cylinder B01 are located on opposite sides of the sliding module along the arrangement direction of the secondary variable pitch sliding plate B102. When the second variable pitch component B1 changes pitch, the telescopic cylinder B01 extends to push the sliding module to abut against the limit block B103. Specifically, two limit blocks B103 can be provided, and the two limit blocks B103 are respectively provided on opposite sides of the sliding module in the third direction. When the secondary variable pitch sliding plate B102 abuts against the limit block B103, the corresponding secondary variable pitch sliding plate B102 no longer slides.
[0156] Considering that the consumables C1 may fall during installation and later removal, the consumables automatic boxing device also includes a consumables accommodating space arranged below the carrier B11, wherein the consumables accommodating space is used to receive the consumables C1 that are not loaded into the carrier B11. After a period of use, the consumables C1 that have fallen into the consumables accommodating space can be taken out. The volume of the consumables accommodating space can be set as needed. In order to facilitate the removal of the consumables C1, the bottom wall of the consumables accommodating space is tilted downward toward the exit position, and the staff cleans out the fallen consumables C1 from the exit position.
[0157] In a specific embodiment, the secondary variable pitch sliding plate B102 forms a hollow U-shaped structure. When two adjacent secondary variable pitch sliding plates B102 abut against each other, the corresponding adjacent bearing members B11 on the two adjacent secondary variable pitch sliding plates B102 change their pitches into place, that is, the two adjacent secondary variable pitch sliding plates B102 abut against each other, that is, the consumable material C1 on the secondary variable pitch sliding plate B102 is adjusted into place. By forming the secondary variable pitch sliding plate B102 into a hollow U-shaped structure, the overall sliding stability of the secondary variable pitch sliding plate B102 is improved.
[0158] Projected from top to bottom, all the bearing positions on the secondary variable pitch sliding plates B102 are located within the projection range of the consumables accommodating space. This arrangement facilitates the consumables accommodating space to accommodate the consumables C1 dropped from each secondary variable pitch sliding plate B102, thereby preventing the consumables C1 from dropping to other locations and interfering with the normal operation of the equipment.
[0159] In a specific embodiment, the consumables automatic boxing device further includes a consumables storage box B2, which passes through the hollow position of the U-shaped structure, is located in the consumables storage space, and the top of the consumables storage box B2 is open and directly faces the carrier B11, and is used to receive the consumables C1 that are not loaded into the carrier B11. At the same time, by providing the consumables storage box B2, the consumables C1 is prevented from falling into the guide rail B105 from the gap, causing the pitch change to jam.
[0160] In a specific embodiment, the secondary variable pitch mechanism further includes a box body detection device B8, which is used to detect whether the consumables storage box B2 is installed in place in the consumables storage space. The consumables storage box B2 is a drawer-type structure, and the consumables storage box B2 can be pulled out of the consumables storage space. In order to facilitate pulling, preferably, a handle B202 is provided at the drawer head B203 of the consumables storage box B2.
[0161] Specifically, the consumables containing box B2 may be a rectangular box structure with an open top.
[0162] In a specific embodiment, the secondary pitch changing mechanism further includes a support frame B9, and the box body detection device B8 and the consumables container B2 are both installed on the support frame B9. Specifically, the consumables container B2 is detachably connected to the support frame B9, and specifically, the consumables container B2 is slidably arranged on the support frame B9.
[0163] The box body detection device B8 is used to detect the distance between the drawer tail B201 and the support frame B9 of the consumables storage box B2. Specifically, the box body detection device B8 can be a distance detection device. For example, when the distance between the drawer tail B201 and the support frame B9 is less than or equal to a preset value, it indicates that the consumables storage box B2 is installed in place.
[0164] Among them, the box body detection device B8 can also be connected to the alarm device and the whole machine control device. When the whole machine control device controls the automatic consumable box loading equipment to work, if the distance between the drawer tail B201 and the support frame B9 is greater than the preset value, the alarm device is controlled to alarm, thereby providing the staff with an opportunity to check whether the consumable container box B2 is installed and whether the consumable container box B2 is installed in place.
[0165] Of course, the guide rail B105 and the slot-type photoelectric B7 can also be installed on the support frame B9 to improve the integration effect of the automatic boxing equipment for consumables.
[0166] In a specific embodiment, the secondary pitch changing mechanism further includes a box body connecting device B10, and the box body connecting device B10 and the consumables containing box B2 are both installed on the support frame B9, and the box body connecting device B10 is used for detachably connecting the consumables containing box B2 with the support frame B9. Specifically, the box body connecting device B10 can be a buckle, and when in use, the buckle is buckled, and the consumables containing box B2 is buckled with the support frame B9. When it is necessary to disassemble the consumables containing box B2, the buckle is separated, and the consumables containing box B2 can be pulled out at this time.
[0167] In a specific embodiment, the box body connecting device B10 includes a magnetic device, and the support frame B9 and the box body connecting device B10 are connected by the magnetic device; the magnetic device is arranged between the support frame B9 and the drawer tail B201 of the consumables storage box B2. The support frame B9 and the box body connecting device B10 are connected by the magnetic device, which is simple to operate and does not require staff to operate the box body connecting device B10.
[0168] like Fig.11 and Fig.15 As shown, specifically, the magnetic attraction device includes a first attraction component B1001 and a second attraction component B1002 that can be attracted to the first attraction component B1001, wherein at least one of the first attraction component B1001 and the second attraction component B1002 is a magnet. During arrangement, one of the first attraction component B1001 and the second attraction component B1002 is installed on the support frame B9, and the other is installed on the consumables storage box B2. In order to facilitate the positioning of the consumables storage box B2, one of the first attraction component B1001 and the second attraction component B1002 is provided with a positioning cavity B1003, and the other is provided with a positioning column inserted into the positioning cavity B1003. When the first attraction component B1001 and the second attraction component B1002 are attracted, the positioning column is inserted into the positioning cavity B1003.
[0169] In order to facilitate the positioning column to slide into the positioning cavity B1003, a guide surface that gradually expands outward is formed at the opening of the positioning cavity B1003.
[0170] like Fig.10 As shown, in a specific embodiment, the secondary pitch-changing mechanism further includes a protective cover B4, which is arranged on the periphery of the pitch-changing structure, and the protective cover B4 is located above the bearing member B11 and has an opening for consumables to enter and exit. In order to facilitate observation of the internal working conditions, preferably, the protective cover B4 is a transparent protective cover, for example, the protective cover B4 is made of glass or transparent plastic.
[0171] For ease of understanding, the working principle and process are described below in conjunction with a specific implementation method: After the consumables automatic boxing equipment receives the consumables C1, the second pitch component B1 changes pitch, and the barless cylinder pulls the secondary pitch sliding plate B102 to one side, and stops after touching the limit block B103. At this time, the adjacent secondary pitch sliding plates B102 are abutted, and the spacing between adjacent consumables C1 along the third direction is a preset 9mm. Then the consumables automatic boxing equipment can be pushed to the filter element pressing station through the first transverse movement module B6. Specifically, the first transverse movement module B6 includes a slide rail, and the support frame B9 is installed on the slide rail.
[0172] like Fig. 22 and Fig.23 As shown, in a specific embodiment, the box loading mechanism includes a material adsorption mechanism G1, and the material adsorption mechanism G1 is used to adsorb the material installed with the filter element.
[0173] In order to improve the versatility of the box loading mechanism, the box loading mechanism further includes a rotating mechanism G2, and the material adsorption mechanism G1 is installed at the rotating end of the rotating mechanism G2 to drive the material adsorption mechanism G1 to change direction. For example, the rotating mechanism G2 can be a rotating cylinder. For example, when the material needs to be rotated horizontally by 90 degrees as a whole, the rotating cylinder drives the material adsorption mechanism G1 to rotate horizontally by 90 degrees to meet the requirements of placing the material in the box body.
[0174] In order to improve the versatility of the box loading mechanism, the box loading mechanism further includes a three-axis module G3, which is used to drive the rotating mechanism G2 to move in space.
[0175] In a specific embodiment, the material adsorption mechanism G1 includes an adsorption device G104, a box loading nozzle G101 and a box loading material punching device. The box loading nozzle G101 is used to absorb the material with the filter element, and the box loading nozzle G101 corresponds to the material one by one. In order to improve the suction effect of the box loading nozzle G101 and the filter element, the adsorption setting includes a plurality of adsorption chambers, and all the box loading nozzles G101 are evenly divided into different adsorption chambers, and each adsorption chamber is operated by pumping negative pressure through an independently set negative pressure structure.
[0176] The box loading and punching device includes a telescopic part and a push plate. The push plate is sleeved on the outer periphery of the box loading nozzle G101 to push the material on the box loading nozzle G101 out of the box loading nozzle G101. Among them, the telescopic part can be a linear motor or a telescopic cylinder. For example, the three-axis module G3 is a rodless cylinder. A plurality of through holes can be provided on the push plate for the box loading nozzle G101 to pass through. Preferably, all the box loading nozzles G101 are clearance-matched with the same push plate, or a plurality of push plates are provided, and the same row of box loading nozzles G101 share the same push plate, and the push plates corresponding to different rows of nozzles are fixedly connected and connected to the telescopic part. In order to avoid air leakage, the inner dimensions of the box loading nozzle G101 are designed to imitate the dimensions of the gun head to prevent problems such as air leakage.
[0177] The outer periphery of the box loading nozzle G101 is provided with a cut surface G102, which is used to drive the box loading nozzle G101 to be selected into the adsorption device G104 through the operating tool G103. Specifically, the two sides of the box loading nozzle G101 that are arranged opposite to each other are provided with cut surfaces G102, and the cut surfaces G102 can be specifically planes. The operating tool G103 is adapted to the cut surfaces G102 and the box loading nozzle G101. When the box loading nozzle G101 needs to be installed, the box loading nozzle G101 is first placed in the operating work, and then the box loading nozzle G101 is aligned with the threaded holes corresponding to the adsorption device G104, and the operating tool G103 is rotated to screw the box loading nozzle G101 into the adsorption device G104. When the box loading nozzle G101 and the adsorption device G104 are sealed and tightened, the operating tool G103 is pulled out until all the box loading nozzles G101 and the adsorption device G104 are sealed and tightened. Since the adjacent box loading nozzles G101 are closely spaced and difficult to install, the box loading nozzles G101 are facilitated to be disassembled and assembled by providing a cutting surface G102 and cooperating with an operating tool G103.
[0178] like Figures 17 to 21 As shown, the automatic box loading device also includes a filter element loading mechanism, which is arranged on one side of the secondary pitch changing mechanism and is used to install the filter element on the material after the pitch change in the Y direction. The filter element loading mechanism includes a fixed frame D1, a lifting device D2 and an adsorption device D3, and the lifting device D2 is installed on the fixed frame D1. The lifting device D2 drives the adsorption device D3 to rise and fall. Specifically, the lifting device D2 can be a linear motor, a cylinder or a hydraulic cylinder, etc. The lifting height of the lifting device D2 is set according to the needs of the adsorption device D3, and this application does not make specific limitations.
[0179] The adsorption device D3 includes at least two independently set adsorption areas for forming negative pressure, and the adsorption area is configured to adsorb the filter element. For example, the adsorption device D3 includes two independently set adsorption areas, and the two adsorption areas are arranged in sequence in the horizontal direction. Or the adsorption device D3 includes three or more independently set adsorption areas, for example, the adsorption device D3 includes two independently set adsorption areas, and the four adsorption areas are arranged in two rows and two columns.
[0180] In a specific embodiment, the filter element is adsorbed by negative pressure. When the filter element needs to be discharged, gas can be flushed into the adsorption area, and the filter element can be pushed out when the gas pressure drops.
[0181] In another specific embodiment, the filter element loading mechanism further includes a support frame D4 and a ejector pin D5. The telescopic end of the lifting device D2 is fixedly connected to the support frame D4, that is, the lifting device D2 drives the support frame D4 to rise and fall. The ejector pin D5 is installed on the support frame D4. The ejector pin D5 is arranged in an array and corresponds to the filter element one by one. When in use, the ejector pin D5 corresponds to the filter element one by one to push out the filter element adsorbed on the filter element loading mechanism. By having the ejector pin D5 correspond to the filter element one by one, when pushing out the filter element, it is possible to avoid the situation where part of the filter element is stuck and cannot be pushed out, and the staff needs to manually remove it, thereby further reducing the labor intensity of installing the filter element.
[0182] The filter element loading mechanism further comprises a second transverse moving module D9, which drives the lifting device D2 to move horizontally. The second transverse moving module D9 can drive the lifting device D2 to move by a linear motor, a telescopic cylinder, etc.
[0183] Specifically, the filter element loading mechanism also includes a guide device D6, the top of which is fixedly connected to the support frame D4, the guide device D6 is slidably connected to the adsorption device D3, and the bottom of the guide device D6 is located at the bottom of the adsorption device D3. A limit block capable of abutting against the bottom of the adsorption device D3 is provided at the bottom of the guide device D6. By providing the guide device D6, the adsorption device D3 moves relative to the support frame D4 along a preset path.
[0184] From the above description, it can be seen that in the filter element loading mechanism provided in the specific embodiment of the present application, the adsorption area on the adsorption device D3 is independently set, and each adsorption area independently forms a negative pressure, thereby improving the negative pressure suction force of the adsorption filter element and reducing the situation of the adsorption filter element falling. Therefore, the filter element loading mechanism provided in the present application effectively reduces the labor intensity of installing the filter element.
[0185] In a specific embodiment, the adsorption device D3 includes an adsorption body D302, and multiple adsorption areas are formed in the adsorption body D302. The bottom end of each adsorption area on the adsorption body D302 is respectively provided with a filter element shaped suction port D301 corresponding to the filter element one by one. The filter element shaped suction port D301 is used to adsorb the filter element. By setting the filter element shaped suction port D301, the adsorption of the filter element is facilitated.
[0186] The ejector pin D5 is in sliding sealing cooperation with the top of the adsorption body D302, and can be inserted into the filter element profiling suction port D301 to push out the filter element. Specifically, the filter element profiling suction port D301 is arranged in an array in each adsorption area.
[0187] In a specific embodiment, the filter element loading mechanism also includes a filter element mounting frame, which is used to place the filter element. The bottom end of the adsorption device D3 is provided with a positioning mechanism setting position and a positioning member detachably installed in the positioning mechanism setting position. The positioning member is used to position the filter element contoured suction port D301 with the filter element installation placement position on the filter element mounting frame. The filter element mounting frame is provided with a positioning hole that cooperates with the positioning member.
[0188] In a specific embodiment, the guide device D6 includes a guide rod D601 and a bearing, and one end of the guide rod D601 is fixedly connected to the support frame D4. The bearing is installed on the adsorption device D3 and sleeved on the outside of the guide rod D601, and the guide rod D601 and the bearing are slidably matched. By providing the bearing, it is convenient for each position of the adsorption device D3 to have a consistent sliding path relative to the guide rod D601, thereby improving the adsorption rate of the filter element.
[0189] In a specific embodiment, the filter element loading mechanism also includes an elastic mechanism D8, and the two opposite ends of the elastic mechanism D8 in the telescopic direction are connected to the support frame D4 and the adsorption device D3 to provide a rebound force for the adsorption device D3 to move away from the support frame D4. Specifically, the elastic mechanism D8 can be a spring, and the spring is sleeved on the outer periphery of the guide rod D601. Specifically, by setting the elastic mechanism D8, the spring is compressed during the descent of the adsorption device D3, which plays a buffering role. At the same time, when the lifting device D2 drives the adsorption device D3 to rise, the spring is extended, which facilitates the upward movement of the ejector pin D5 relative to the filter element contoured suction port D301.
[0190] In a specific embodiment, the filter element loading mechanism further includes a vacuum generator D7, which is connected to the adsorption area one-to-one. For example, when there are four adsorption areas, four vacuum generators D7 are also provided, thereby ensuring that each adsorption area has sufficient adsorption force.
[0191] In order to improve the air purification effect, preferably, a filter D10 is provided at the air outlet of the vacuum generator D7 to purify the gas entering the adsorption area.
[0192] During specific use, negative pressure is generated by the vacuum generator D7, and the negative pressure air is filtered by the filter D10 and enters four independent adsorption areas. Each adsorption area corresponds to a vacuum generator D7, avoiding mutual influence and facilitating increasing the negative pressure suction force.
[0193] The filter element profiling suction port D301 is specifically arranged in an array. The position where the filter element profiling suction port D301 is connected to the adsorption area is a guide surface for the ejector pin D5 to pass through. Specifically, the guide surface can be a conical structure that gradually expands upward. A gap is provided between the outer peripheral surface of the ejector pin D5 and the inner wall of the filter element profiling suction port D301. By providing the gap, the friction between the ejector pin D5 and the inner wall of the filter element profiling suction port D301 is reduced, thereby improving the adsorption stability of the filter element.
[0194] In a specific embodiment, the adsorption area on the adsorption body D302 includes a first sealing plate D30201 and a second sealing plate D30202 arranged in sequence from top to bottom, the first sealing plate D30201 and the ejector pin D5 are in clearance fit, the second sealing plate D30202 and the ejector pin D5 are in sliding seal fit, and the second sealing plate D30202 is made of elastic material. In order to achieve overall installation and sealing, the first sealing plate D30201 is made of hard material. If it is in sliding seal with the ejector pin D5, the ejector pin D5 will not slide smoothly and the sliding surface will be damaged. The first sealing plate D30201 and the ejector pin D5 are in clearance fit to reduce the friction between the first sealing plate D30201 and the ejector pin D5. The second sealing plate D30202 made of elastic material is used to achieve sealing with the ejector pin D5, thereby ensuring the sealing effect and extending the service life of the adsorption device D3.
[0195] When packing, if the packing capacity is large, one box body needs multiple suction actions, and the root placement is different. The material adsorption mechanism G1 used to move the gun head after assembling the filter element is installed under the rotating mechanism G2, so that the material adsorption mechanism G1 can rotate perpendicular to the horizontal direction, for example, it can rotate between 90°-180°. In order to facilitate material removal, the rotating mechanism G2 is installed on the three-axis module G3, and the three-axis module G3 realizes the X-direction, Y-direction and Z-direction movement of the rotating mechanism G2.
[0196] Specifically, since the arrangement of the gun tips after the filter element is pressed is x×y=4×8, and the hole positions of the empty box are x×y=8×12, the material adsorption mechanism G1 is horizontally rotated 90° through the rotating mechanism G2, and the material adsorption mechanism G1 performs three adsorption actions, which just completes the placement of a box of gun tips.
[0197] In a specific embodiment, the filter element loading mechanism further includes a filter element cleaning device and a filter element accommodating box, the filter element accommodating box is located on one side of the filter element mounting frame, the filter element mounting frame is used to place the filter element, the filter element accommodating box is used to receive the filter element on the filter element mounting frame, and the filter element cleaning device is used to clean the surface of the filter element mounting frame to the filter element accommodating box. By providing the filter element cleaning device, the filter element on the filter element mounting frame can be cleaned to the filter element accommodating box, which is convenient for adsorption of different types of filter elements. At the same time, it can avoid the filter element from falling off and affecting subsequent work.
[0198] The filter element cleaning device may include a driving device for driving the reciprocating cleaning brush of the cleaning brush driven by the cleaning brush machine, and the driving device may be a linear motor or a telescopic cylinder, etc.
[0199] For ease of understanding, the working principle and process are explained below in conjunction with a filter element loading mechanism: the lifting device D2 descends, and the vacuum generator D7 is turned on at the filter element suction station to generate negative pressure. The filter element profiling suction port D301 sucks the filter element. After successful suction, the lifting device D2 is reset, and the second transverse movement module D9 drives the lifting device D2 to move horizontally to the left. After moving to the filter element pressing position, the lifting device D2 descends and the negative pressure is turned off. When the lower surface of the filter element profiling suction port D301 hits the gun head, the ejector pin D5 starts to move downward and ejects until the filter element is ejected and pressed into the gun head. After completion, each structure is reset.
[0200] In a specific embodiment, the primary pitch changing mechanism and the secondary pitch changing mechanism are sequentially arranged along the first direction, the output direction of the upper box body of the unloading mechanism is parallel to the first direction, and the unloading mechanism and the filter element loading mechanism are arranged along the second direction on opposite sides of the secondary pitch changing mechanism away from one end of the primary pitch changing mechanism. In this way, the components are reasonably arranged relative to each other, which facilitates the automatic box loading equipment to perform continuous box loading actions.
[0201] In order to improve the overall integration effect, preferably, the automatic box loading device further comprises an integrated frame I1, and the primary variable distance mechanism, the secondary variable distance mechanism, the box loading mechanism and the unloading mechanism are all integrated and installed on the integrated frame I1. In order to improve the support stability, the integrated frame I1 is preferably a metal support frame.
[0202] In a specific embodiment, considering that the material does not need to be loaded with a filter element or packed in a box, the processed material is directly packed in bags. The automatic box packing equipment also includes a packaging mechanism, which includes a mounting frame H1 and a material guiding device H2 mounted on the mounting frame H1. The material guiding device H2 includes a partition H201. A plurality of partitions H201 are provided. Material guiding passages H202 for the material to pass through are formed between the partitions H201, wherein the inner cavity shape of each material guiding passage H202 is preferably the same.
[0203] Specifically, in order to reduce the overall weight, preferably, the mounting frame H1 is assembled from rods.
[0204] The material guide passage H202 is provided with an inlet H203 and an outlet H204, and the inlet H203 and the outlet H204 are opposite ends of the inner cavity of the material guide passage H202. The inlet H203 can be vertically opened upward, or opened at the side, or opened obliquely upward. The outlet H204 is located below the inlet H203, and the outlet H204 can be vertically opened downward, or opened at the side, or opened obliquely downward. Preferably, the material slides from the inlet H203 through the material guide passage H202 to the outlet H204 under the action of its own gravity.
[0205] The material guide passage H202 includes a vertical drop portion H20201, a first material guide portion H20202, and a second material guide portion H20203 from the material inlet H203 to the material outlet H204. Preferably, the vertical drop portion H20201, the first material guide portion H20202, and the second material guide portion H20203 are arranged in sequence from top to bottom. Specifically, the cross-sectional areas of the material guide passage H202 perpendicular to the material sliding direction are the same, or they may be different. Of course, the vertical drop portion H20201, the first material guide portion H20202, and the second material guide portion H20203 may also be arranged in other directions, but in this case, an additional power device may be required to move the material along the passage to the material outlet. The power device may be any power device that can move the material in the passage, such as a conveyor belt.
[0206] The second material guide portion H20203 is tilted toward the operating end along the direction from the material inlet H203 to the material outlet H204. Preferably, the second material guide portion H20203 is tilted from top to bottom toward the operating end. The lower part of the second material guide portion H20203 is used to fix the package. Specifically, the bottom end of the second material guide portion H20203 is a tilted plate structure, and the material outlet H204 is located close to the operating end, which is convenient for the staff to take out the package containing the material, and at the same time, it is convenient to fix the empty package to the second material guide portion H20203. Fig.25 As shown, the operator stands at the left end, and the discharge port H204 is arranged near the left end.
[0207] When in use, the package is fixed under the second material guide part H20203, and the material is fed through the feed port H203, passes through the vertical falling part H20201, the first material guide part H20202 and the second material guide part H20203 in sequence, and then enters the package through the discharge port H204. When the loading of the package is completed, the package is taken out from the second material guide part H20203 and packaged.
[0208] It can be seen from the above description that in the packaging mechanism provided in the specific embodiment of the present application, the packaging piece is fixed by fixing the packaging piece below the second material guide part H20203, and there is no need to manually fix the packaging piece, and the material guide passage H202 for the material to pass through is formed by the partition H201, so that the material can smoothly enter the packaging piece. The second material guide part H20203 is tilted toward the operating end along the direction from the material inlet H203 to the material outlet H204, so that the staff at the operating end can disassemble and install the packaging piece in time. Therefore, the packaging mechanism provided by the present application improves the loading efficiency.
[0209] In a specific embodiment, in order to facilitate the falling of materials, preferably, the first material guide portion H20202 is an expanded material guide passage H202, and specifically, the first material guide portion H20202 is inclined outwardly along the direction from the material inlet H203 to the material outlet H204. Specifically, the cross-sectional area of the inner cavity of the first material guide portion H20202 gradually increases along the direction perpendicular to the sliding direction of the materials.
[0210] In a specific embodiment, the second material guide part H20203 is a box-shaped structure with an inclined bottom wall of the inner surface, the top of the second material guide part H20203 is connected with the bottom of the first material guide part H20202, and the bottom of the second material guide part H20203 is close to the operating end of the mounting frame H1. In order to facilitate the material dropping, preferably, the discharge port H204 is downwardly arranged at the bottom of the second material guide part H20203, and at this time, the bottom of the second material guide part H20203 is provided with a cylindrical structure with a downward opening to form the discharge port H204. Specifically, the bottom wall of the second material guide part H20203 can be a plane.
[0211] In a specific embodiment, the second material guide portion H20203 includes a bottom plate H205, a top plate H206 and two side plates H207, the top plate H206 is located above the bottom plate H205, and the bottom plate H205 and the top plate H206 are connected on opposite sides by the side plates H207. Specifically, the surface of the bottom plate H205, the top plate H206 and the two side plates H207 that serve as the inner wall of the second material guide portion H20203 is a plane. In order to improve assembly efficiency, the second material guide portion H20203 can be an integrally formed structure.
[0212] In order to facilitate the fixing of the package containing the material, preferably, the outer wall of the second material guide part H20203 is provided with a locking member H3 for fixing the package. Specifically, when the bottom end of the second material guide part H20203 is provided with a cylinder structure with a downward opening to form a discharge port H204, the locking member H3 is arranged at the bottom end of the cylinder structure.
[0213] Specifically, the locking member H3 can be a hook provided on the second material guide portion H20203, and when in use, the end of the package is hung on the hook position. Specifically, at least two hooks are preferably provided, and in this case, the package can be hung on the hook.
[0214] In a specific embodiment, the locking member H3 is a spring clip. Specifically, the spring clip can be made of spring steel. Specifically, the spring clip is arranged at the outer periphery of the cylinder in a U-shaped structure. The spring clip and the outer wall of the cylinder are used to clamp the opening position of the package. Specifically, the middle part of the locking member H3 is fixedly connected to the second material guide part H20203, and the opening positions at both ends are movable. When the package needs to be installed, the opening ends of the locking member H3 move away from the second material guide part H20203. When the package is set at the discharge port H204, the locking member H3 is released. The locking member H3 moves toward the second material guide part H20203 under the action of its own elastic force until the spring clip clamps the package. This type of locking member H3 has low requirements for the structure of the package and improves the versatility of the packaging mechanism.
[0215] In a specific embodiment, considering that the overall weight of the package increases as the material increases during the process of placing the material in the package, in order to ensure the installation stability of the package in the second material guide part H20203, the packaging mechanism also includes a limit block H6. Specifically, the limit block H6 is arranged parallel to the side of the spring clip, and the surface of the limit block H6 can be provided with anti-slip grooves. The limit block H6 is installed on the cylinder. Specifically, the limit block H6 can be locked to the cylinder by screws, or the limit block H6 and the cylinder are integrally formed.
[0216] The stopper H6 is located below the spring clip, and the bottom of the spring clip and the top of the stopper H6 form a gap for bending the package. By setting the stopper H6, when the package is installed, the package is bent by the stopper H6 and locked with the spring clip, thereby improving the friction of the package.
[0217] In a specific embodiment, the packaging mechanism further includes a mounting plate, which is mounted above the mounting frame H1 and connected to the second material guide portion H20203 to support the second material guide portion H20203. By providing the mounting plate, the installation stability of the material guide device H2 is improved. In order to facilitate disassembly and assembly, the mounting plate is detachably connected to the second material guide portion H20203.
[0218] In order to facilitate the operator to know the material falling situation inside the packaging mechanism, preferably, the side of the first guide part close to the operating end is blocked by a transparent baffle showing the inner cavity of the material guide passage H202, and the transparent baffle is fixed to the mounting plate through a connecting plate. Specifically, the transparent plate can be a plastic plate or a glass plate.
[0219] Of course, during the specific processing, the entire material guiding device H2 is made of transparent materials.
[0220] In order to further improve the loading efficiency, preferably, at least two groups of material guide devices H2 are provided on the mounting frame H1. For example, three groups or at least four groups of material guide devices H2 are provided on the mounting frame H1. Preferably, all the material guide devices H2 are arranged in sequence along a straight line direction.
[0221] Specifically, the number of the material guide devices H2 can be twice the number of materials that the loading manipulator can load at one time. When one set of material guide devices H2 is loading, the other set of material guide devices H2 can be bagged. That is, the packaging mechanism is a double-station design, which is convenient for the operator to change materials without stopping the machine, further improving the loading efficiency.
[0222] In a specific embodiment, for some materials that may carry static electricity, in order to facilitate feeding, preferably, a static eliminator is provided above the feed port H203, and the static eliminator is used to remove static electricity from the materials. Specifically, the static eliminator is a static rod H5 or an ion blower H4.
[0223] For ease of understanding, a specific implementation is described below. Fig.24 As shown, the operator puts 8 ziplock bags as packaging pieces into the discharge port H204, starts the anti-static rod H5, starts the injection molding machine, and the injection molding machine robot takes the material and throws the gun head as the material feed port to the corresponding material guide device H2. The gun head slides into the ziplock bag below due to its own gravity. When each of the four ziplock bags in the first station is filled with 1,000 pieces, the ziplock bags are manually removed, and at the same time, the four ziplock bags in the second station start to be loaded without stopping the machine.
[0224] Preferably, the packaging mechanism is arranged next to the gun head injection molding machine. When the material does not need to be bagged, the primary variable pitch mechanism sucks the injection molding machine gun head, turns 90 degrees, and spits the material into the material guide passage H202 of the packaging mechanism. The material guide passage H202 delivers the gun head to the ziplock bag at the end of each flow channel. The material is discharged after the ziplock bag is full.
[0225] By setting the unloading method of the packaging mechanism, other options of customers can be met. The bagging mechanism is automated, so it has the advantage of allowing enterprises to choose the production method of bagging with a tip (TIP head) or boxing.
[0226] The primary pitch-changing mechanism automatically absorbs the material C1 of the injection molding machine. Specifically, the material is the gun head, which is pitched in the X direction through the primary pitch-changing mechanism. After the pitch change, the gun head turns downward 90° to the secondary pitch-changing mechanism, and after the pitch change in the Y direction through the secondary pitch-changing mechanism, the boxing spacing requirements are met. The equipment feeds the filter element, and the filter element loading mechanism absorbs the filter element and installs it in the gun head, so that the gun head after the pitch change is loaded with the filter element.
[0227] For ease of understanding, the following is an explanation of the working principle and process of box loading: On the loading line E1, empty boxes are loaded manually. After the loading line E1 moves the empty boxes into place, the three-axis module G3 moves to the material picking station, starts the negative pressure, and the box loading nozzle G101 sucks the gun head with the filter element. After completion, it moves to the top of the empty box, and the rotating mechanism G2 rotates 90 degrees, aligns the hole position and spits the material into the empty box. After the empty box is full, the material box can be moved from the loading line to the unloading line E2 on the right by the manipulator F1. The material box moves to the unloading position under the action of the unloading line E2, and is manually taken away to complete the production. The manipulator F1 can be a conventional manipulator.
[0228] The automatic boxing equipment provided by the present application realizes automation, so it has the advantages of saving labor and reducing enterprise expenses. At the same time, since there is no human intervention in the production process, it can avoid artificial pollution and achieve clean production. On the other hand, since it realizes close cooperation between various links in the production process, it can greatly improve the production efficiency of the enterprise and reduce costs.
[0229] The various embodiments in this specification are described in a progressive manner, and each embodiment focuses on the differences from other embodiments. The same or similar parts between the various embodiments can be referenced to each other.

Therefore, the present invention will not be limited to the embodiments shown herein, but rather to the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
