The collection of the plastic bag is completed through a series of continuous actions such as bag lifting, heat-shrinking, and bag collecting, thereby realizing the automation of the plastic bag collection work and reducing the labor cost of the collection operation (the collection operation can be understood as the collection and sorting operation).

[0064] Specifically, the bag pressing portion 41 may be a bag pressing plate.

This multi-point adsorption design can lift the plastic bag more evenly, avoid deformation or damage of the plastic bag during the lifting process, ensure the uniformity and aesthetics of the heat shrink seal of the plastic bag, and is particularly suitable for high-end product production lines that require high-quality packaging.

[0066] Specifically, the bag lifting mechanism 20 includes a main body 22 and a mounting portion 23. The main body 22 is movably arranged on the frame 10 along the height direction of the loading space 11.

The mounting opening slot 231 has a first mounting side wall 2311 and a second mounting side wall 2312 connected at a preset angle. The adsorption portion 21 is mounted on the first mounting side wall 2311 and / or the second mounting side wall 2312. This design enables the adsorption portion 21 to adsorb the plastic bag from different angles, so as to ensure that part of the plastic bag can be sucked in and stuck into the mounting opening slot 231, and ensure the stability of adsorption, so as to ensure the stable lifting of the plastic bag. In addition, the flexibility and reliability of adsorption are improved, and it is suitable for plastic bags of various shapes and sizes, and the versatility and adaptability of the equipment are enhanced.

[0067] In this embodiment, the frame 10 includes a first longitudinal frame 12 and a second longitudinal frame 13 which are relatively and spaced apart, and the loading space 11 is located between the first longitudinal frame 12 and the second longitudinal frame 13; the main body 22 includes: a first main board 221 and a second main board 222, the first main board 221 is movably arranged on the first longitudinal frame 12 along the height direction of the loading space 11, and the first main board 221 is provided with at least two mounting portions 23 spaced apart along the extension direction of the first main board 221, and the moving directions of at least two mounting portions 23 located on the first main board 221 are set at a first predetermined angle; the second main board 222 is movably arranged on the second longitudinal frame 13 along the height direction of the loading space 11, and the second main board 222 is provided with at least two mounting portions 23 spaced apart along the extension direction of the second main board 222, and the moving directions of at least two mounting portions 23 located on the second main board 222 are set at a second predetermined angle.

[0068] Specifically, there are four mounting parts 23 to achieve lifting of the four corners of the plastic bag.

[0069] Specifically, the first heat shrinkable part 31 is movably arranged on the first longitudinal frame 12 along the height direction of the loading space 11, and the second heat shrinkable part 32 is movably arranged on the second longitudinal frame 13 along the height direction of the loading space 11. This layout optimizes the space utilization of the equipment, makes the structure of the plastic bag collecting device more compact, and ensures the accuracy of heat shrinkage, which is suitable for production lines with limited space and improves the layout flexibility of the production line and the integration of the equipment.

[0070] In this embodiment, the frame 10 further includes a transverse frame 14, the two ends of which are respectively connected to the first longitudinal frame 12 and the second longitudinal frame 13, the transverse frame 14 is located on the top of the first longitudinal frame 12 and the second longitudinal frame 13, and the bag pressing mechanism 40 is movably arranged on the transverse frame 14 along the extension direction of the transverse frame 14. This layout optimizes the space utilization of the equipment, makes the structure of the plastic bag collecting device more compact, and ensures the accuracy of bag pressing, which is suitable for production lines with limited space and improves the layout flexibility of the production line and the integration of the equipment.

[0071] Specifically, the bag lifting mechanism 20 includes: a main body 22 and a driving member 24, the driving member 24 drives the main body 22 to be movably arranged on the frame 10 along the height direction of the loading space 11, the adsorption portion 21 is installed on the main body 22, and the bag lifting mechanism 20 also includes an adsorption matching portion, which is installed on the main body 22 and located above the adsorption portion 21; a position detection portion is arranged on the main body 22 and arranged toward the loading space 11, and the position detection portion is located above the adsorption portion 21 and below the adsorption matching portion; a control member, the driving member 24, the position detection portion, the first adsorption portion 21 and the adsorption matching portion are all connected to the control member; when the position detection portion changes from detecting a signal of an object to not detecting a signal of an object, the control member controls the adsorption portion 21 and the adsorption matching portion to perform adsorption; after the adsorption portion 21 and the adsorption matching portion are both adsorbed, when the position detection portion changes from detecting a signal of an object to not detecting a signal of an object, the control member controls the driving member 24 to stop working and the adsorption matching portion to stop adsorption. This precise control mechanism can ensure the accurate position of the plastic bag during the lifting process, ensure that the adsorption portion 21 can always be stably adsorbed to the plastic bag, avoid the situation where the adsorption portion 21 is too high and causes separation from the plastic bag, and avoid the failure of heat shrink sealing caused by the displacement of the plastic bag position. It is suitable for production lines that require high-precision operations and improves the accuracy and success rate of plastic bag collection.

[0072] Specifically, the adsorption portion 21 and the adsorption matching portion may both be suction cup structures.

[0073] Specifically, the first heat shrinkable part 31 and the second heat shrinkable part 32 are movably arranged below the bag lifting mechanism 20; or, the height difference between the position detection part and the adsorption part 21 is greater than or equal to the heat shrink height of the first heat shrinkable part 31; along the height direction of the loading space 11, the first heat shrinkable part 31 and the second heat shrinkable part 32 are movably arranged between the adsorption part 21 and the position detection part. This design ensures the accurate position of the plastic bag during heat shrink sealing, so as to ensure that the heat shrink mechanism 30 can perform heat shrink operation on the plastic bag, and avoid heat shrink operation without a plastic bag between the first heat shrinkable part 31 and the second heat shrinkable part 32. In addition, it also avoids the plastic bag from being poorly sealed or damaged due to improper position during the heat shrink process, which is suitable for production lines that require high-quality heat shrink sealing, and improves the reliability and aesthetics of the heat shrink sealing of the plastic bag.

[0074] In this embodiment, the plastic bag collection device further includes: a feeding line 50, a material detection component, a stopper 60 and a control component.

When the material detection component detects that the material with the plastic bag arrives at the feeding space 11, the control component controls the stopper 60 to move to the stop position; when the control component receives the heat shrink completion signal of the heat shrink mechanism 30, the control component controls the stopper 60 to move to the avoidance position. This automated material detection and stop mechanism can precisely control the transportation and positioning of plastic bags, avoiding collision and position displacement of plastic bags during transportation. It is suitable for production lines with a high degree of automation and improves the continuity and stability of the production line.

[0075] Specifically, the stopper 60 may be a blocker. The material detection element may be a photoelectric sensor.

[0076] In this embodiment, the plastic bag collection device further includes: a weight detection component, which is arranged on the feeding line 50, and is located in the feeding space 11, and is used to detect the weight of the material with the plastic bag; wherein the weight detection component and the adsorption part 21 are both connected to the control component, and the control component controls the adsorption force of the adsorption part 21 according to the detected weight of the weight detection component, and makes the adsorption force of the adsorption part 21 less than or equal to the gravity of the material with the plastic bag. By setting the weight detection component, the weight of the plastic bag can be monitored in real time, ensuring the stability of the plastic bag during the lifting process, avoiding the lifting failure or equipment damage caused by the excessive weight of the plastic bag, and is suitable for production lines that need to accurately control the weight of the plastic bag, and improves the safety and efficiency of the plastic bag collection.

[0077] The control component determines whether a plastic bag containing materials is placed in the box according to the detected weight of the weight detection component. In this way, when the detected weight is only the weight of the box, the control component and the alarm component of the plastic bag collection device send out an alarm signal, and the control component controls the bag lifting mechanism 20, the heat shrinking mechanism 30 and the bag pressing mechanism 40 not to perform subsequent collection operations to avoid direct pressure damage to the box.

When the stop member 60 is in the stopping position, the control member controls the positioning assembly 70 to move to the positioning position; when the stop member 60 is in the avoiding position, the control member controls the positioning assembly 70 to move to the avoiding position. The setting of the positioning assembly 70 can ensure the accurate position of the plastic bag during the heat shrink sealing and bag pressing process, avoid the deviation of the plastic bag during the operation, and is suitable for production lines that require high-precision positioning, thereby improving the accuracy and reliability of the plastic bag collection.

The first positioning portion 71 is movably disposed on the first longitudinal frame 12 along a direction approaching or away from the loading space 11, and the second positioning portion 72 is movably disposed on the second longitudinal frame 13 along a direction approaching or away from the loading space 11.

[0080] When the plastic bag-covered carton 80 on the conveyor line (corresponding to the loading line 50 ) reaches the position of the automatic plastic bag collecting device, the automatic plastic bag collecting device is activated to lift and collect the plastic bags wrapped around the plastic bag-covered carton 80 .

[0081] like Figure 8 As shown, the operation of the automatic plastic bag collecting device is as follows:

[0082] First, the initial positions of the bag lifting mechanism 20 and the heat shrink mechanism 30 are confirmed by the model of the carton 80 , the bag lifting mechanism 20 is adjusted to the initial position by the transmission module position, and the heat shrink mechanism 30 is adjusted to the heat shrink position by the transmission motor 34 and the screw rod 33 .

[0083] When the rubber-covered carton 80 reaches the position of the automatic plastic bag collecting device, the front blocker of the work station (corresponding to the stopper) is released, the work station blocker is lifted, and the left and right positioning mechanisms of the carton 80 (corresponding to the positioning assembly) position the carton 80. The four single-axis cylinders (corresponding to the telescopic cylinders 25) on the two sets of bag lifting mechanisms 20 (also called bag lifting assemblies) extend outward at the same time, and the four bag lifting plates (corresponding to the mounting parts 23) reach the four corners of the rubber-covered carton 80. The four suction cups (corresponding to the adsorption parts 21) are ventilated to suck the outer plastic bags of the rubber-covered carton 80; then the transmission module (corresponding to the driving member 24) drives the bag lifting mechanism 20 to move from bottom to top, thereby the plastic bags are also lifted from bottom to top. The bag is full of materials, so the internal plastic bag will not be lifted; after the bag lifting mechanism 20 reaches the upper end position, the four single-axis cylinders (corresponding to the heat shrink cylinder 35) on the heat shrink mechanism 30 act at the same time, driving the two heat shrink molds (corresponding to the first heat shrink part 31 and the second heat shrink part 32) to move inward until the two heat shrink molds clamp the inner film lifted by the bag lifting mechanism 20, and at the same time, the two heat shrink molds heat-melt the inner film to achieve the effect of sealing the plastic bag; after the action is completed, the bag lifting mechanism 20 and the heat shrink mechanism 30 (also known as the heat shrink component) return to the initial position; at the same time, the bag pressing cylinder 42 extends and moves downward to press the sealed plastic bag downward into the plastic bag carton 80. After completion, the bag pressing cylinder 42 is reset, the plastic bag collection action is completed, and the plastic bag carton 80 enters the next process.

[0084] Specifically, the heat shrink cylinder 35 is connected to the first heat shrink part 31 or the second heat shrink part 32 through a floating joint 36 .

[0085] From the above description, it can be seen that the above embodiments of the present invention achieve the following technical effects: the collection and sorting of plastic bags is automated, the employee cost is reduced, and the labor intensity of employees is reduced; the collection and sorting process of plastic bags is optimized, the efficiency is increased, and the output is improved. The adsorption part 21 of the bag lifting mechanism 20 adsorbs the plastic bags, the heat shrinking mechanism 30 performs heat shrinking and sealing on the plastic bags, and the bag pressing mechanism 40 presses the heat-shrunk plastic bags, so that the automatic collection and sorting of plastic bags is realized, the production efficiency is improved, the manual operation is reduced, and the production cost is reduced. At the same time, through multiple movable adsorption parts 21 and heat shrinking parts, as well as precise control parts, the stability and accuracy of the plastic bag collection and sorting process are ensured, and the quality and efficiency of the plastic bag collection and sorting are further improved. In addition, through the setting of the weight detection part and the positioning component 70, the precise positioning and weight control of the plastic bags in the collection and sorting process are achieved, the collection and sorting effect of the plastic bags is guaranteed, and it also helps the smooth progress of the subsequent processes, and the overall automation level and production capacity of the production line are improved.
