The appearance of this phrase in various places throughout the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a separate or alternative embodiment mutually exclusive with other embodiments. It will be explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.
[0047] This application provides a loading and unloading device and a cell passivation process system.
[0048] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the cell passivation process system provided in this application. Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the cell passivation process system provided in this application.
[0049] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the loading and unloading equipment 50 is used in the cell passivation process system 10, which includes the loading and unloading equipment 50 and the process equipment 60. The loading and unloading equipment 50 is used for transporting materials, and the process equipment 60 is used for processing the materials.
[0050] In the example of the application, the processing technology of the cell passivation system 10 can be ALD (Atomic layer deposition) process. The cell raw material is sheet material 20, which includes, but is not limited to, silicon wafers, silicon carbide wafers, etc. Among them, the unpassivated sheet material 20 can be referred to as raw material, and the passivated sheet material 20 is referred to as processed material. Figure 3 An exploded view of the sheet material, drawer-type container, and cover provided in this application. Figure 4The schematic diagram of the process boat and the boat cache device provided in the present application.
[0051] As shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4 , during the transportation of the sheet material 20, the sheet material 20 is loaded in the carrier. In the example of the application, the carrier includes a magazine 30 and a process boat 40. The magazine 30 can accommodate multiple sheet materials 20 at the same time, and the multiple sheet materials 20 are stacked in the magazine 30. The process boat 40 can load multiple magazines 30 at the same time.
[0052] It can be understood that the magazine 30 is used to directly load the sheet material 20, and the sheet material 20 can be directly loaded into or taken out of the magazine 30. The process boat 40 is mainly used for the transfer of the sheet material 20 in the passivation process. Before being put into the passivation process, the magazine 30 loaded with the sheet material 20 needs to be inserted into the process boat 40.
[0053] Figure 5 The cross-sectional schematic diagram of the sheet material, the drawer-type magazine and the cover plate provided in the present application.
[0054] As shown in Figure 3 and Figure 5 , in the example of the application, the magazine 30 is provided with a receiving groove 31 for accommodating the sheet material 20. The receiving groove 31 is formed with a slot in communication with the top surface of the magazine 30, and the sheet material 20 can enter and exit the receiving groove 31 through the slot.
[0055] The bottom of the magazine 30 is provided with a cushion block 32 for supporting the sheet material 20. The two sides of the magazine 30 are provided with through grooves 33 in communication with the receiving groove 31 and the top surface of the magazine 30.
[0056] In the case of transporting the magazine 30 loaded with multiple sheet materials 20 alone, the magazine 30 is arranged in a vertical direction as a whole, and at this time, the stacking direction of the multiple sheet materials 20 is parallel to the vertical direction.
[0057] In the case of inserting the magazine 30 loaded with multiple sheet materials 20 into the process boat 40 (see Figure 4 ), the magazine 30 is arranged in a horizontal direction as a whole, and at this time, the stacking direction of the multiple sheet materials 20 is parallel to the horizontal direction.
[0058] When the sheet material 20 is accommodated in the receiving groove 31, the sheet material 20 is stacked on the cushion block 32, and the through groove 33 leaves a certain overhanging space below the bottom of the sheet material 20. The corresponding grabbing mechanism can be provided with an extension structure matched with the through groove 33, which can extend into the space below the bottom of the sheet material 20 through the through groove 33 and support the sheet material 20.
[0059] AsFigure 4 and Figure 5 The magazine 30 in the present application can be a drawer type magazine. The process boat 40 is suitable for loading a clip type magazine. The drawer type magazine is in the shape of a box as a whole, and an accommodating groove 31 is formed in the interior of the drawer type magazine. The drawer type magazine is further provided with a cover plate 34 for covering the slot of the accommodating groove 31. Before the sheet materials 20 are put into passivation, the sheet materials 20 need to be loaded into the accommodating groove 31, and the cover plate 34 is placed in the slot of the accommodating groove 31 to prevent the sheet materials 20 from leaving the accommodating groove 31. During the passivation process of the sheet materials 20, the cover plate 34 covers the top surface of the sheet materials 20 on the top layer, and the cross sections of each sheet material 20 are exposed to the accommodating groove 31 for passivation coating. After the passivation of the sheet materials 20 is completed, the cover plate 34 can be removed from the accommodating groove 31, and then the sheet materials 20 can be removed from the accommodating groove 31.
[0060] In the example of the application, the process boat 40 includes a bearing base 41, a pressing assembly 42 and a plurality of limiting assemblies 43. The bearing base 41 is provided with a plurality of accommodating cavities 44. The accommodating cavities 44 are used to accommodate the magazine 30, specifically to accommodate the drawer type magazine, and the cavity openings of the accommodating cavities 44 penetrate through the top surface of the process boat 40. The magazine 30 can be inserted into the accommodating cavities 44 from the cavity openings of the accommodating cavities to load a plurality of sheet materials 20 into the process boat 40. The bearing base 41 is further provided with a plurality of pressing openings corresponding to and communicating with the accommodating cavities 44.
[0061] The pressing assembly 42 is arranged opposite the pressing openings in the horizontal direction, and the pressing assembly 42 is slidingly connected to the bearing base 41 in the horizontal direction. The limiting assemblies 43 are used to limit the pressing assembly 42 in the horizontal direction.
[0062] The process boat 40 has a locked state and an unlocked state.
[0063] When the process boat 40 is in the locked state, the pressing assembly 42 is pressed into the pressing openings in the horizontal direction, so that the pressing assembly 42 abuts against the cover plate 34 of the magazine 30, and the plurality of sheet materials 20 in the magazine 30 are pressed in the stacking direction, and at the same time the limiting assemblies 43 limit the pressing assembly 42 to maintain the pressing of the plurality of sheet materials 20. At this time, the process boat 40 can be put into passivation processing.
[0064] When the process boat 40 is in the unlocked state, the limiting assemblies 43 release the limiting of the pressing assembly 42, and the pressing assembly 42 releases the abutting pressure on the cover plate 34, so that the plurality of sheet materials 20 in the magazine 30 are released from the pressing. At this time, the magazine 30 is allowed to be taken out of the process boat 40.
[0065] Figure 6 A structural schematic diagram of the clip type magazine provided in the present application is shown.
[0066] As shown in Figure 6 The magazine 30 in the present application can also be a magazine of the clip type. The magazine of the clip type includes a base plate 35 and a plurality of limiting columns 36. The limiting columns 36 are perpendicular to the base plate 35, and are fixed to the upper side of the base plate 35 by means of bolts. The plurality of limiting columns 36 are distributed along the circumference of the base plate 35, and the space enclosed by the plurality of limiting columns 36 forms a receiving groove 31. The ends of the plurality of limiting columns 36 away from the base plate 35 form the groove opening of the receiving groove 31. The spacing between the plurality of limiting columns 36 distributed along the width direction of the base plate 35 forms a through groove 33, and the spacing between the plurality of limiting columns 36 distributed along the length direction of the base plate 35 forms a communication opening 37. The middle part of the base plate 35 protrudes upward to form a pad 32. The side of the plurality of limiting columns 36 facing the receiving groove 31 forms the inner side of the magazine 30.
[0067] Figure 7 The structure schematic diagram of the carousel device, the feeding carrying device and the discharging carrying device provided in the present application.
[0068] As shown in Figure 2 to Figure 7 The internal region of the battery wafer passivation process system 10 includes a material transfer region 11, a boat transfer region 12 and a passivation processing region 13. The boat transfer region 12 is located between the material transfer region 11 and the passivation processing region 13. The material transfer region 11 is formed with a feeding position 14 and a discharging position 15 on the side away from the boat transfer region 12. The raw material can be loaded in the magazine 30 and fed into the battery wafer passivation process system 10 from the feeding position 14. The magazine 30 loaded with the cooked material can be transported to the discharging position 15 for recycling by other equipment.
[0069] The material transfer region 11 is mainly used for buffering and transporting the magazine 30, and for transferring the wafer-shaped material 20 between different magazines 30. The boat transfer region 12 is mainly used for buffering and transporting the process boat 40, and for transferring the magazine 30 between different process boats 40. The passivation processing region 13 is mainly used for passivation processing of the process boat 40.
[0070] The feeding and discharging equipment 50 includes a feeding conveying line 100, a transfer device 300, a feeding carrying device 400, a magazine backflow device 500, a magazine carrying device 600, a boat buffering device 700, a boat transfer device 800, a discharging carrying device 1000 and a discharging conveying line 1100.
[0071] The feeding conveying line 100 is used for conveying the first material. Specifically, the feeding conveying line 100 is used for obtaining the first material from the feeding position 14, and transporting the first material. The first material includes the unprocessed wafer-shaped material 20 or the magazine 30 loaded with the unprocessed wafer-shaped material 20.
[0072] The feeding conveying line 100 is arranged in the material transfer area 11. The feeding conveying line 100 has an inlet end and an outlet end, and the feeding conveying line 100 is capable of transporting the material box 30 from the inlet end to the outlet end. The inlet end of the feeding conveying line 100 passes through the feeding position 14.
[0073] The discharging conveying line 1100 is used for obtaining the second material from the transfer device 300 and conveying the second material to the material collecting position 15. The second material includes the processed sheet material 20 or the material box 30 loaded with the processed sheet material 20.
[0074] The discharging conveying line 1100 is arranged in the material transfer area 11. The discharging conveying line 1100 has an inlet end and an outlet end, and the discharging conveying line 1100 is capable of transporting the material box 30 from the inlet end to the outlet end. The outlet end of the discharging conveying line 1100 is located at the material collecting position 15.
[0075] For example, the feeding conveying line 100 and the discharging conveying line 1100 are arranged in parallel and are spaced apart, and the conveying direction of the feeding conveying line 100 is opposite to the conveying direction of the discharging conveying line 1100. The position of the inlet end of the feeding conveying line 100 is arranged adjacent to the position of the outlet end of the discharging conveying line 1100. Correspondingly, the feeding position 14 is arranged adjacent to the material collecting position 15, so that the feeding position 14 and the material collecting position 15 are located in the same area, allowing simultaneous raw material feeding and cooked material collecting in the area, and the operation is more convenient.
[0076] The transfer device 300 carries the second material box 30b. Specifically, the transfer device 300 is used for carrying a plurality of material boxes 30 and driving the plurality of material boxes 30 to move synchronously and pass through a plurality of processing stations in sequence. The plurality of processing stations include a feeding station 301, a raw material station 302, a cooked material station 303, and a discharging station 304. It can be understood that the first material box 30a and the second material box 30b in the present application are only used to distinguish the material box 30 transported by the feeding conveying line 100 and the second material box 30b carried by the transfer device 300, and are not used to distinguish the shapes and structures of the first material box 30a and the second material box 30b. The first material box 30a and the second material box 30b can actually have the same shape and structure.
[0077] The feeding conveying device 400 is used for carrying the first material to the transfer device 400. The transfer device 300 is arranged in the material transfer area 11, and the position of the transfer device 300 corresponds to the outlet end of the feeding conveying line 100 and the inlet end of the discharging conveying line 1100.
[0078] In the embodiment of the present application, the first material can be the unprocessed sheet material 20 or the first material box 30a loaded with the unprocessed sheet material 20.

[0103] In some embodiments, the boat caching device 700 has multiple sets, and the multiple sets of boat caching device 700 are respectively boat caching device 700A and boat caching device 700B. The boat transfer device 800 has multiple sets, and the multiple sets of boat transfer device 800 are respectively boat transfer device 800A and boat transfer device 800B.

In some embodiments, the battery piece passivation process system 10 further comprises a shaping device 200, which is arranged in the material transfer area 11 and located on the conveying path of the feeding conveying line 100. During the process of transporting the first material box 30a from the inlet end to the outlet end of the feeding conveying line 100, the first material box 30a will pass through the shaping device 200, and the multiple sheet materials 20 in the first material box 30a will be shaped by the shaping device 200. Among them, shaping the multiple sheet materials 20 means aligning the multiple sheet materials 20 in the vertical direction, reducing the unevenness of the overall multiple sheet materials 20, thereby reducing the adverse effects on the subsequent process due to misalignment, achieving the effect of improving process efficiency and yield.

In the case of needing to recycle clinkers, the process boat 40 put out from the process equipment 60 can be temporarily cached in the boat storage device 1200, waiting for the grabbing of the boat transfer device 800B.

The heat dissipation device 1300 is arranged in the boat transfer area 12, and the heat dissipation device 1300 is located at one end of the boat transfer device 800. Specifically, the heat dissipation device 1300 is located at one end of the boat transfer device 800B close to the boat buffer device 700B. In the case of needing to recycle the clinker, the heat dissipation device 1300 can dissipate heat from the process boat 40 during the process of the boat moving device B transferring the process boat 40 to the boat buffer device 700B. In this way, the influence of the heat on the process boat 40 on other mechanisms can be reduced.

[0111] Figure 8 The structure schematic diagram of the loading conveying line, the material box backflow device and the unloading conveying line provided in the present application is shown.
[0112] As shown in Figure 6 and Figure 8 In some embodiments, the loading conveying line 100 adopts a synchronous belt mechanism. The loading conveying line 100 carries the material box 30 through the synchronous belt mechanism and drives the material box 30 to move in the loading direction (i.e. the X1 direction shown in the figure). The middle part of the synchronous belt mechanism is provided with a hollow area to allow other devices to lift the material box 30 from the bottom of the synchronous belt mechanism.
[0113] The inlet end of the loading conveying line 100 is formed with a loading position 101, and the position of the loading position 101 corresponds to the loading position 14. The outlet end of the loading conveying line 100 is formed with a first backflow position 102, and the position of the first backflow position 102 corresponds to the material box backflow device 500. The regular position 103 is formed between the inlet end and the outlet end of the loading conveying line 100, and the position of the regular position 103 corresponds to the regular device 200.
[0114] In some embodiments, the unloading conveying line 1100 adopts a synchronous belt mechanism. The unloading conveying line 1100 carries the material box 30 through the synchronous belt mechanism and drives the material box 30 to move in the unloading direction (i.e., the X2 direction shown in the figure). The middle part of the synchronous belt mechanism is provided with a hollow area for other devices to lift the material box 30 from the bottom of the synchronous belt mechanism.
[0115] The outlet end of the unloading conveying line 1100 is formed with an unloading position 1101, and the position of the unloading position 1101 corresponds to the material receiving position 15. The inlet end of the unloading conveying line 1100 is formed with a second backflow position 1102, and the position of the second backflow position 1102 corresponds to the material box backflow device 500.
[0116] In some embodiments, the material box backflow device 500 is arranged in the material transfer area 11, and the material box backflow device 500 is located between the feeding conveying line 100 and the unloading conveying line 1100. The material box backflow device 500 is used to transfer the material box 30 (i.e., the first material box 30a) between the outlet end of the feeding conveying line 100 and the inlet end of the unloading conveying line 1100.
[0117] After a plurality of sheet materials 20 in the material box 30 of the feeding conveying line 100 are taken out, the material box backflow device 500 can transport the empty material box 30 on the feeding conveying line 100 to the inlet end of the unloading conveying line 1100, and the material box 30 is subsequently transported by the unloading conveying line 1100.
[0118] In some embodiments, the material box backflow device 500 comprises a backflow driving assembly 501 and a transfer assembly 502. The transfer assembly 502 is connected to the backflow driving assembly 501, and the transfer assembly 502 is used to reciprocate in the backflow direction under the driving of the backflow driving assembly 501 and pass through the first backflow position 102 and the second backflow position 1102. For example, the backflow driving assembly 501 can be a motor-driven rack and pinion assembly. The transfer assembly 502 can be a synchronous belt assembly.
[0119] When the transfer assembly 502 moves to the first backflow position 102, the transfer assembly 502 is connected to the feeding conveying line 100, so that the feeding conveying line 100 transports the material box 30 to the transfer assembly 502.
[0120] When the transfer assembly 502 moves to the second backflow position 1102, the transfer assembly 502 is connected to the unloading conveying line 1100, so that the transfer assembly 502 transports the material box 30 to the unloading conveying line 1100.
[0121] The working modes of the feeding conveying line 100, the material box backflow device 500, and the unloading conveying line 1100 provided in the present application are as follows:
[0122] Firstly, the backflow driving assembly 501 drives the transfer assembly 502 to move to the first backflow position 102, so that the transfer assembly 502 is docked with the feeding conveying line 100. Then, the feeding conveying line 100 transports the material box 30 loaded with raw materials from the feeding position 101 to the regularizing position 103 to regularize the raw materials, and then transports the regularized material box 30 to the first backflow position 102, so that the material box 30 is transported to the transfer assembly 502. Then, the feeding handling device 400 can take the raw materials out of the material box 30. Then, the backflow driving assembly 501 drives the transfer assembly 502 to move to the second backflow position 1102, so that the transfer assembly 502 is docked with the discharging conveying line 1100. Then, the transfer assembly 502 transports the empty material box 30 from the second backflow position 1102 to the discharging conveying line 1100, waiting for the discharging handling device 1000 to place the clinkers into the material box 30. Then, the discharging conveying line 1100 transports the material box 30 loaded with the clinkers to the discharging position 1101.
[0123] In this way, the material box backflow device 500 can establish the connection between the feeding conveying line 100 and the discharging conveying line 1100. After the material box 30 is transported through the feeding conveying line 100, the material box backflow device 500 and the discharging conveying line 1100 in turn, the process of raw materials and clinkers and the material box 30 can be realized, the transportation route of the material box 30 is optimized, the length of the whole machine assembly line is shortened, and the technical effects of reducing the equipment floor area and improving the work efficiency are achieved.
[0124] Figure 9 The contrastive view of the sheet material before and after regularizing provided in the present application is shown. Figure 10 The structure schematic view of the regularizing device, the feeding conveying line and the feeding handling device provided in the present application is shown.
[0125] As shown in Figs. 1 and 2, the material box 30 is used to store the sheet material 20. The material box 30 includes a box body 301 and a containing groove 302. The containing groove 302 is arranged in the box body 301 and is used to contain the sheet material 20. The containing groove 302 has a space size greater than the total volume of the stacked sheet materials 20. Figure 9 As shown in Figs. 1 and 2, the material box 30 is used to store the sheet material 20. The material box 30 includes a box body 301 and a containing groove 302. The containing groove 302 is arranged in the box body 301 and is used to contain the sheet material 20. The containing groove 302 has a space size greater than the total volume of the stacked sheet materials 20. Figure 10 As shown in Figs. 1 and 2, the material box 30 is used to store the sheet material 20. The material box 30 includes a box body 301 and a containing groove 302. The containing groove 302 is arranged in the box body 301 and is used to contain the sheet material 20. The containing groove 302 has a space size greater than the total volume of the stacked sheet materials 20.
[0126] In the present application, before the feeding handling device 400 grabs the sheet material 20 in the material box 30, the feeding conveying line 100 will first transport the material box 30 to the regularizing device 200, and the regularizing device 200 regularizes the sheet material 20 in the material box 30 to ensure that the feeding handling device 400 can grab the sheet materials 20 which have been aligned in the vertical direction, thereby reducing the adverse effects caused by the misalignment on the subsequent process and improving the process efficiency and the yield.
[0127] Figure 11A state diagram of the feeding conveying line provided by the present application when transporting the material box to the regularizing position.
[0128] As shown in Figure 8 , Figure 10 and Figure 11 , in the example of the present application, the first material is the first material box 30a loaded with unprocessed sheet materials 20. The regularizing device 200 is used to obtain the first material box 30a loaded with unprocessed sheet materials 20 from the feeding conveying line 100, drive the first material box 30a to flip from the original state to the dumping state, and then drive the first material box 30a to flip from the dumping state back to the original state.
[0129] In the case of flipping the first material box 30a to the dumping state, the stacking direction of the plurality of sheet materials 20 has an included angle with the vertical direction, so that the plurality of sheet materials 20 are dumped under the action of gravity and at the same time resist the inner side of the first material box 30a.
[0130] In some embodiments, the regularizing device 200 includes a flipping mechanism 210 and a jacking mechanism 220. The jacking mechanism 220 is located at the regularizing position 103 of the feeding conveying line 100, and the flipping mechanism 210 is located above the jacking mechanism 220.
[0131] When the feeding conveying line 100 transports the first material box 30a to the regularizing position 103, the jacking mechanism 220 jacks up the first material box 30a to allow the flipping mechanism 210 to obtain the first material box 30a for regularizing. After the flipping mechanism 210 has completed the regularizing, the jacking mechanism 220 re-obtains the first material box 30a from the flipping mechanism 210 and drives the first material box 30a to descend, placing the first material box 30a on the feeding conveying line 100, so that the feeding conveying line 100 re-obtains the first material box 30a and continues to transport.
[0132] Figure 12 A structural diagram of the flipping mechanism provided by the present application. Figure 13 A state diagram of the flipping mechanism provided by the present application driving the material box to flip from the original state to the dumping state. Figure 14 A state diagram of the flipping mechanism provided by the present application driving the material box to flip from the dumping state to the original state.
[0133] As shown in Figure 9 , Figure 12 , Figure 13 and Figure 14As shown, the way the turning mechanism 210 regularizes is that the turning mechanism 210 drives the first magazine 30a to turn from the original state to the dumping state, and then drives the first magazine 30a to turn from the dumping state to the original state. In the case where the turning mechanism of the first magazine 30a turns to the dumping state, the stacking direction of the plurality of sheet materials 20 has an angle with the vertical direction, so that the plurality of sheet materials 20 are dumped under the action of gravity and at the same time abut against the inner side of the first magazine 30a. In this way, the plurality of sheet materials 20 can be changed from the original irregular stacking state to the regular stacking state, ensuring that the plurality of sheet materials 20 are aligned.
[0134] As shown in Figure 10 and Figure 11 In some embodiments, the jacking mechanism 220 includes a jacking table 221 and a jacking drive cylinder 222, the jacking table 221 is connected to the jacking drive cylinder 222, and the jacking drive cylinder 222 is used to drive the jacking table 221 to rise and fall. The area of the jacking table 221 is smaller than the area of the bottom of the first magazine 30a, and when the first magazine 30a is placed on the jacking table 221, the edge of the bottom of the first magazine 30a protrudes from the side of the jacking table 221.
[0135] When the feeding conveying line 100 starts to transport the first magazine 30a, the height of the jacking table 221 is lower than the height of the upper surface of the feeding conveying line 100, so that the feeding conveying line 100 can transport the first magazine 30a above the jacking table 221.
[0136] When the feeding conveying line 100 transports the first magazine 30a above the jacking table 221, the feeding conveying line 100 can pause the transportation, the jacking drive cylinder 222 drives the jacking table 221 to rise, the jacking table 221 carries the first magazine 30a and jacks up the first magazine 30a from the feeding conveying line 100, so that the first magazine 30a is separated from the feeding conveying line 100, and the turning mechanism 210 takes away the first magazine 30a for regularization.
[0137] As shown in Figure 12 , Figure 13 and Figure 14As shown, in some embodiments, the turnover mechanism 210 comprises a regular frame 211, a rotating frame 212, a turnover clamping assembly 213, and a turnover driving assembly 214. The rotating frame 212 is rotationally connected to the regular frame 211. The turnover clamping assembly 213 is connected to the regular frame 211 and moves synchronously with the regular frame 211, including synchronous rotation and synchronous movement. The axis of the rotating frame 212 is parallel to the horizontal direction. The turnover clamping assembly 213 is provided with a loading area 2131. The turnover clamping assembly 213 is used to grab the first box 30a located in the loading area 2131. It can be understood that the position of the loading area 2131 is taken as a reference of the turnover clamping assembly 213. The loading area 2131 moves following the movement of the turnover clamping assembly 213.
[0138] The turnover driving assembly 214 is arranged on the regular frame 211 and connected to the rotating frame 212. The turnover driving assembly 214 is used to drive the rotating frame 212 to rotate, so that the turnover clamping assembly 213 is turned clockwise or counterclockwise to the first state or the second state. In the case that the turnover clamping assembly 213 grabs the first box 30a, the turnover clamping assembly 213 drives the first box 30a to turn synchronously in the turnover process.
[0139] When the turnover clamping assembly 213 is turned to the first state, the turnover mechanism 210 and the jacking mechanism 220 are allowed to transfer the first box 30a. At this time, the first box 30a is in the original state. When the turnover clamping assembly 213 is turned to the second state, the stacking direction of the plurality of sheet materials 20 has an angle with the vertical direction, so that the plurality of sheet materials 20 are poured under the action of gravity and at the same time abut against the inner side of the first box 30a. At this time, the first box 30a is in the pouring state.
[0140] As shown in FIGS. Figure 5 and Figure 13 As shown, in some embodiments, the turnover mechanism 210 further comprises a pushing assembly 217 arranged relative to the turnover clamping assembly 213. In the case that the turnover clamping assembly 213 is in the first state and grabs the first box 30a, the pushing assembly 217 is arranged opposite to the communication port 203 of the first box 30a. At this time, the pushing assembly 217 can extend into the first box 30a through the communication port 203 to contact the plurality of sheet materials 20, so as to push the plurality of sheet materials 20 to move in the direction close to the inner side of the first box 30a.
[0141] It can be understood that after the turnover clamping assembly 213 grabs the first box 30a and before it is turned to the second state, the pushing assembly 217 can push the plurality of sheet materials 20 to move in the direction close to the inner side of the first box 30a.
[0142] In some embodiments, the turnover mechanism 210 further comprises a top plate 215 arranged on the rotating frame 212, the top plate 215 is spaced apart from the turnover clamping assembly 213, and a loading area 2131 is formed between the top plate 215 and the turnover clamping assembly 213. The top plate 215 is used to shield the slot of the accommodating groove 31 of the first magazine 30a located in the loading area 2131.
[0143] When the turnover clamping assembly 213 is at the first angle, the turnover clamping assembly 213 and the top plate 215 are arranged in an up-down manner relative to the rotating frame 212. When the turnover clamping assembly 213 grabs the first magazine 30a and is at the second angle, the top plate 215 shields the slot of the accommodating groove 31 of the first magazine 30a to prevent the sheet material 20 from being separated from the slot of the accommodating groove 31 under the action of gravity during the turnover process. The width, length, size, etc. of the top plate 215 can be configured according to the size of the first magazine 30a or the sheet material 20.
[0144] The end of the top plate 215 away from the rotating frame 212 and the end of the turnover clamping assembly 213 away from the rotating frame 212 form a space for the first magazine 30a to enter and exit the loading area 2131, and the turnover clamping assembly 213 and the top plate 215 do not shield the space.
[0145] As shown in FIGS. Figure 10 , Figure 12 and Figure 13 In some embodiments, the turnover mechanism 210 further comprises a horizontal movement driving cylinder 216 for driving the turnover clamping assembly 213 to move in the horizontal direction. The turnover clamping assembly 213 can move close to or away from the jacking mechanism 220 under the driving of the horizontal movement driving cylinder 216.
[0146] In some embodiments, the sizing frame 211 comprises a base frame 2111 and a horizontal movement base plate 2112. The upper side of the base frame 2111 is provided with a transfer area 2113 for docking with the jacking mechanism 220. The upper side of the base frame 2111 is provided with a fixed seat 2114, and the fixed seat 2114 is rotationally connected with the rotating frame 212.
[0147] The horizontal movement base plate 2112 is slidingly connected to the base frame 2111, the turnover clamping assembly 213 is rotationally connected to the horizontal movement base plate 2112, and the turnover driving assembly 214 is arranged on the horizontal movement base plate 2112, so that the turnover clamping assembly 213 and the turnover driving assembly 214 are synchronously moved with the horizontal movement base plate 2112. The horizontal movement driving cylinder 216 is connected to the horizontal movement base plate 2112, and the horizontal movement driving cylinder 216 is used to drive the horizontal movement base plate 2112 to move, so as to drive the turnover clamping assembly 213 to move towards or away from the transfer area 2113.
[0148] As shown in FIG. 1 1, the first tray 30a is transported to the transfer area 21 13 by the feeding conveyor 100. The flipping and clamping assembly 213 is in the retreat position when it is away from the transfer area 21 13. The flipping and clamping assembly 213 is in the docking position when it is close to the transfer area 21 13.
[0149] When the flipping and clamping assembly 213 is in the retreat position, the lifting mechanism 220 is allowed to transport the first tray 30a to the transfer area 21 13. In this case, the flipping and clamping assembly 213 and the transverse base plate 21 12 are both away from the transfer area 21 13, preventing the flipping and clamping assembly 213 or the transverse base plate 21 12 from interfering with the lifting mechanism 220 in transporting the first tray 30a, and allowing the lifting mechanism 220 to lift the first tray 30a to the transfer area 21 13.
[0150] When the flipping and clamping assembly 213 is in the docking position, the loading area 2131 is coincided with the transfer area 21 13, and the first tray 30a in the transfer area 21 13 is allowed to enter the loading area 2131 for the flipping and clamping assembly 213 to grab. In this case, the loading area 2131 of the flipping and clamping assembly 213 overlaps with the transfer area 21 13 of the base frame 21 1, allowing the flipping and clamping assembly 213 to grab the first tray 30a to be regularized, and also allowing the flipping and clamping assembly 213 to release the first tray 30a that has been regularized for the lifting mechanism 220 to take away.
[0151] As shown in FIG. 1 1, the first tray 30a is transported to the transfer area 21 13 by the feeding conveyor 100. The flipping and clamping assembly 213 is in the retreat position when it is away from the transfer area 21 13. The flipping and clamping assembly 213 is in the docking position when it is close to the transfer area 21 13. Figure 10 , Figure 11 and Figure 12 In some embodiments, when the feeding conveyor 100 transports the first tray 30a to below the transfer area 21 13, the first tray 30a reaches above the lifting platform 221, which can lift the first tray 30a away from the feeding conveyor 100 to make the first tray 30a enter the transfer area 21 13 for the flipping and clamping assembly 213 to take away. After the flipping and clamping assembly 213 places the first tray 30a on the lifting platform 221, the lifting platform 221 lowers to move the first tray 30a from the transfer area 21 13 back to the feeding conveyor 100, and the feeding conveyor 100 continues to transport the first tray 30a.
[0152] In some embodiments, the base frame 21 1 is further provided with a plurality of incoming material detection pieces, which are arranged in correspondence with the path of the first tray 30a moving through the transfer area 21 13. When the first tray 30a is lifted by the lifting mechanism 220, the plurality of incoming material detection pieces can detect and feedback the position of the first tray 30a to trigger corresponding actions. For example, the incoming material detection piece can be a photoelectric sensor.
[0153] Figure 15A structure diagram of a rotating frame and a turnover clamping assembly provided in the present application.
[0154] As shown in Figure 13 and Figure 15 , in some embodiments, the rotating frame 212 comprises a support plate 2121, a connecting block 2122 and a rotating shaft 2123. The turnover clamping assembly 213 is arranged on one side of the support plate 2121, and the rotating shaft 2123 is arranged on the other side of the support plate 2121 and parallel to the horizontal direction. One end of the connecting block 2122 is fixedly connected to the support plate 2121, and the other end of the connecting block 2122 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 2123.
[0155] In some embodiments, the number of fixed seats 2114 is 2, and the two fixed seats 2114 are distributed at the two ends of the rotating shaft 2123, and the two ends of the rotating shaft 2123 are connected to the two fixed seats 2114 through bearings. When the rotating shaft 2123 rotates, the rotating shaft 2123 drives the rotating frame 212 to overturn through the connecting block 2122, so that the rotating frame 212 is rotatably fixed on the transverse bottom plate 2112.
[0156] In the example of the present embodiment, when the turnover clamping assembly 213 is in the first state, the support plate 2121 is arranged in the vertical direction, and at this time, the turnover clamping assembly 213 is located at the lower part of the support plate 2121, and the top plate 215 is located at the upper part of the support plate 2121. When the turnover clamping assembly 213 is in the second state, the support plate 2121 is arranged in the horizontal direction.
[0157] As shown in Figure 4 and Figure 5 , in some embodiments, the turnover clamping assembly 213 comprises a carrier frame 2132 and a clamping module 2133, wherein the carrier frame 2132 is connected to the rotating frame 212 and moves synchronously with the rotating frame 212, and the carrier frame 2132 is provided with a first stop block 2134 and a second stop block 2135 for positioning the first material box 30a. The loading area 2131 is formed on the side of the carrier frame 2132 facing the top plate 215, and the carrier frame 2132 is used to carry the first material box 30a located in the loading area 2131. The rotating frame 212 is connected to the turnover driving assembly 214, and the rotating frame 212 is used to rotate in the vertical direction under the driving of the turnover driving assembly 214.
[0158] The clamping module 2133 is arranged on the carrier frame 2132, and the clamping module 2133 moves and rotates with the carrier frame 2132, and the clamping module 2133 is used to clamp and fix the first material box 30a located in the loading area 2131 in cooperation with the carrier frame 2132.
[0159] In the example of the present embodiment, when the carrier 2132 is at the first angle, the turnover clamping assembly 213 is at the first state, and the first angle can be 0°, i.e., the carrier 2132 is arranged in a horizontal direction, at which time the upper portion of the carrier 2132 forms a loading area 2131. When the carrier 2132 is at the second angle, the turnover clamping assembly 213 is at the second state, and the second angle can be 90°, i.e., the carrier 2132 is arranged in a vertical direction.
[0160] It is worth noting that the angle of the carrier 2132 in the first state or the second state can be configured according to actual needs, for example, in other embodiments, the angle of the carrier 2132 in the second state can also be 45°, as long as the effect of dumping the sheet material 20 can be achieved.
[0161] When it is necessary to be regularized, the carrier 2132 can be at the first angle, and then the first box 30a enters the loading area 2131 above the carrier 2132, so that the carrier 2132 carries the first box 30a, and the clamping module 2133 clamps and fixes the first box 30a; then the turnover driving assembly 214 can drive the rotating frame 212 to rotate forward, so that the carrier 2132 is turned over to the second angle.
[0162] After the regularization is completed, the turnover driving assembly 214 can drive the rotating frame 212 to rotate reversely, so that the carrier 2132 is turned over to the first angle; then the clamping module 2133 releases the first box 30a, so that the first box 30a leaves the carrier 2132.
[0163] Figure 16 Another perspective view of the turnover mechanism provided in the present application is shown in the structural schematic view.
[0164] As shown in Figure 15 and Figure 16 In some embodiments, the turnover mechanism 210 further includes a carrier lifting member 218, which is arranged on the rotating frame 212 and connected to the carrier 2132, and is used to drive the carrier 2132 to reciprocate in a first direction relative to the rotating frame 212. For example, the carrier lifting member 218 is a pneumatic cylinder, which has a cylinder body and a piston rod, and the cylinder body of the carrier lifting member 218 is bolted and fixed to the support plate 2121, and the piston rod of the carrier lifting member 218 is bolted and fixed to the carrier 2132.
[0165] When the turnover clamping assembly 213 is at the first state, the first direction is parallel to the vertical direction, so that the carrier lifting member 218 can drive the carrier lifting member 218 to move up and down.
[0166] As shown in Figure 2 and Figure 5As shown, in the example of the present embodiment, when the turnover clamping assembly 213 is in the first state, the carrier 2132 and the top plate 215 are spaced apart in the vertical direction. By using the up-down lifting function of the carrier 2132, the spacing between the carrier 2132 and the top plate 215 can be adjusted so that the top plate 215 can be close to the slot of the accommodating groove 31 of the first cartridge 30a. At the same time, it can also meet the application scenarios of different heights of the first cartridge 30a.
[0167] Figure 17 The action diagram of the turnover clamping assembly provided in the present application for grabbing the cartridge from the jacking mechanism.
[0168] As shown in Figure 10 and Figure 17 As shown in the example of the present embodiment, the turnover clamping assembly 213 can also realize the docking with the jacking mechanism 220 through the lifting function.
[0169] Specifically, the carrier 2132 of the turnover clamping assembly 213 is used to be lifted to the first height or the second height under the driving of the carrier lifting piece 218.
[0170] When the carrier 2132 is away from the transfer area 2113, the jacking mechanism 220 is allowed to jack up the first cartridge 30a to the transfer area 2113. When the carrier 2132 is located at the docking position and the carrier 2132 is located at the first height, the carrier 2132 extends below the bottom of the first cartridge 30a located in the transfer area 2113. When the carrier 2132 approaches the transfer area 2113 and the carrier 2132 is located at the second height, the carrier 2132 carries the bottom of the first cartridge 30a to drive the first cartridge 30a to rise and separate from the jacking mechanism 220.
[0171] It can be understood that the way the turnover clamping assembly 213 grabs the first cartridge 30a from the jacking mechanism 220 can be:
[0172] First, the feeding assembly 100 transports the first cartridge 30a below the transfer area 2113, and the carrier 2132 moves to the avoiding position.
[0173] Then, the jacking mechanism 220 jacks up the first cartridge 30a to the transfer area 2113, and the first cartridge 30a separates from the feeding assembly 100.
[0174] Then, the carrier 2132 is lifted to the first height, the clamping module 2133 is in the release state, the carrier 2132 moves to the docking position to approach the transfer area 2113, the carrier 2132 extends below the bottom of the first cartridge 30a located in the transfer area 2113, and then the clamping module 2133 can be switched to the clamping state.
[0175] Then, the carrier 2132 is lifted to the second height, and the carrier 2132 drives the first magazine 30a to rise and separate from the jacking mechanism 220.
[0176] It can be understood that the first magazine 30a is thrown into the jacking mechanism 220 by the turnover clamping assembly 213 in the following manner:
[0177] Firstly, the carrier 2132 is lifted to the second height, and the first magazine 30a is placed on the jacking mechanism 220, and the clamping module 2133 is switched to the release state.
[0178] Then, the carrier 2132 moves to the avoiding position to be away from the transfer area 2113, so that the jacking mechanism 220 drives the first magazine 30a to descend from the transfer area 2113 to the feeding assembly line 100.
[0179] As shown in Figure 9 , Figure 15 and Figure 16 , in some embodiments, the carrier 2132 is arranged perpendicularly to the support plate 2121, and the side of the carrier 2132 away from the support plate 2121 is provided with a clearance 2136 penetrating through the upper and lower sides of the carrier 2132. The clearance 2136 is used for the jacking mechanism 220 to pass through.
[0180] When the carrier 2132 moves towards the jacking mechanism 220, the jacking mechanism 220 enters the clearance 2136 from one side of the carrier 2132; when the jacking platform 221 of the jacking mechanism 220 is lifted, the jacking platform 221 of the jacking mechanism 220 can pass through the clearance 2136. When the jacking mechanism 220 carries the first magazine 30a and the jacking mechanism 200 passes through the clearance 2136, the carrier 2132 can extend below the bottom of the first magazine 30a to allow the carrier 2132 to rise and drive the first magazine 30a to rise and separate from the jacking mechanism 220.
[0181] Specifically, when the carrier 2132 takes away the first magazine 30a on the jacking mechanism 220, firstly, the carrier 2132 can be at the first height and moves to the docking position, so that the jacking mechanism 220 is arranged in and accommodated in the clearance 2136; then, the carrier 2132 is lifted to the second height, and the carrier 2132 receives the part of the chassis 205 protruding from the side of the jacking platform 221 to drive the first magazine 30a to rise and separate from the jacking platform 221.
[0182] In some embodiments, the clamping module 2133 comprises a pressing driving cylinder and pressing blocks. The pressing driving cylinder is arranged on the carrier 2132. The pressing blocks are connected to the pressing driving cylinder. The pressing blocks are spaced apart from the carrier 2132 in the first direction. The pressing blocks are configured to move under the driving of the pressing driving cylinder to approach or move away from the carrier 2132. The pressing blocks are configured to move towards the carrier 2132 to clamp the first cartridge 30a in cooperation with the carrier 2132.
[0183] When the pressing blocks move to approach the carrier 2132, the pressing blocks clamp the first cartridge 30a in cooperation with the carrier 2132, and the clamping module 2133 is in the clamping state. When the pressing blocks move to move away from the carrier 2132, the pressing blocks are unclamped from the carrier 2132, and the clamping module 2133 is in the releasing state to release the first cartridge 30a in the loading area 2131.
[0184] When the flipping clamping assembly 213 is in the first state and the clamping module 2133 is in the releasing state, the carrier 2132 is parallel to the horizontal direction, allowing the first cartridge 30a to move in and out of the loading area 2131 in the horizontal direction.
[0185] As shown in Figure 13 and Figure 14 In some embodiments, the flipping driving assembly 214 comprises an eccentric rod 2141 and a flipping driving member 2142. The first end of the eccentric rod 2141 is coaxially fixed with the rotating shaft 2123 of the rotating frame 212, and the eccentric rod 2141 is rotatably connected to the fixed seat 2114. The second end of the eccentric rod 2141 and the regularizing frame 211 are respectively rotatably connected to the flipping driving member 2142. The flipping driving member 2142 is configured to change the distance between the second end of the eccentric rod 2141 and the regularizing frame 211 to drive the eccentric rod 2141 to rotate, thereby driving the rotating shaft 2123 to rotate.
[0186] For example, one end of the rotating shaft 2123 passes through the fixed seat 2114 and is coaxially fixed with the first end of the eccentric rod 2141. The flipping driving member 2142 is a cylinder, which has a cylinder body and a piston rod. The cylinder body of the flipping driving member 2142 is rotatably connected to the transverse bottom plate 2112, and the piston rod of the flipping driving member 2142 is rotatably connected to the second end of the eccentric rod 2141 through a fish-eye bearing. By controlling the extension and retraction of the piston rod of the flipping driving member 2142, the distance between the second end of the eccentric rod 2141 and the transverse bottom plate 2112 can be changed, thereby driving the eccentric rod 2141 and the rotating shaft 2123 to rotate.
[0187] As shown in Figure 5 , Figure 12 and Figure 13As shown, in some embodiments, the pushing assembly 217 comprises a pushing bracket 2171, a pushing block 2172 and a pushing driving cylinder 2173, wherein the pushing bracket 2171 is arranged at one end of the base frame 2111.
[0188] The pushing block 2172 is arranged relative to the overturning clamping assembly 213, and the pushing block 2172 is spaced apart from the overturning clamping assembly 213 in the horizontal direction. When the overturning clamping assembly 213 is in the first state, the pushing block 2172 is opposite to the first box 30a in the loading area 2131 in the pushing direction, and the pushing direction has an included angle with the stacking direction of the plurality of sheet materials 20. The shape of the pushing block 2172 is matched with the shape of the communication port 203 of the first box 30a, and the size of the pushing block 2172 corresponds to the layering height of the plurality of sheet materials 20, so that the pushing block 2172 can pass through the communication port 203 and can contact the plurality of sheet materials 20. The sheet materials 20 are pushed to one side of the first box 30a by the pushing block 2172, so as to roughly trim the sheet materials 20, and avoid that the sheet materials 20 are tilted and fall under the action of gravity when the overturning clamping assembly 213 is overturned to the second state, so as to cause the silicon wafer to hit the inner side of the first box 30a and cause damage to the silicon wafer.
[0189] The pushing driving cylinder 2173 is arranged on the pushing bracket 2171, and the pushing driving cylinder 2173 is connected to the pushing block 2172. The pushing driving cylinder 2173 is used to drive the pushing block 2172 to move close to or away from the overturning clamping assembly 213 in the pushing direction.
[0190] When the overturning clamping assembly 213 is in the first state and the first box 30a is grasped, the pushing block 2172 is arranged opposite to the communication port 203 of the first box 30a, at this time, the pushing block 2172 extends into the inside of the first box 30a through the communication port 203 under the driving of the pushing driving cylinder 2173, and pushes the plurality of sheet materials 20 to move in the direction close to the inner side of the first box 30a. When the pushing block 2172 moves a specified distance, it is determined that the plurality of sheet materials 20 is close in place, and the pushing block 2172 moves away from the first box 30a under the driving of the pushing driving cylinder 2173, so as to allow the overturning clamping assembly 213 to be overturned to the second state.
[0191] It is worth noting that the pushing block 2172 in the present embodiment is used to push each sheet material 20 close to the inner side of the first box 30a, and in other embodiments, the pushing block 2172 can also be used to push each sheet material 20 to touch the inner side of the first box 30a, which is not limited in the present application.
[0192] Figure 18 The state diagram when the feeding and carrying device provided in the present application grasps the sheet materials is shown.Figure 19 The state change diagram of the sheet material before and after fine adjustment is provided in the present application.
[0193] As shown in Figure 18 and Figure 19 , in some embodiments, the feeding gripping device 400 comprises a feeding gripper mechanism 410 and a feeding gripping driving mechanism 420. The feeding gripper mechanism 410 is used to extend into the magazine 30 to grab or release the sheet material 20. When the feeding gripper mechanism 410 extends into the magazine 30 to grab the sheet material 20, the feeding gripper mechanism 410 can drive the sheet material 20 to move horizontally, fine-tune the position of the sheet material 20, and form a gap between the side edge of the sheet material 20 and the inner side of the magazine 30. The feeding gripping driving mechanism 420 is connected to the feeding gripper mechanism 410, and the feeding gripping driving mechanism 420 is used to drive the feeding gripper mechanism 410 to move, so that the feeding gripper mechanism 410 extends into or out of the magazine 30. In the examples of the present application, the feeding gripping driving mechanism 420 can be a gantry robot, which has a horizontal horizontal moving assembly and a vertical horizontal moving assembly, and can drive the feeding gripper mechanism 410 to move horizontally or vertically.
[0194] It can be understood that after the magazine 30 is regularized, the side edge of the sheet material 20 will be close to the inner side of the magazine 30. If the sheet material 20 is directly grabbed and pulled out of the magazine 30, it may cause the sheet material to scratch the inner wall of the carrier and cause the occurrence of crystal breakage and edge collapse. The present application first drives the sheet material 20 to move horizontally, fine-tunes the position of the sheet material 20, forms a gap between the side edge of the sheet material 20 and the inner side of the magazine 30, and then pulls the sheet material 20 out of the magazine 30. On the basis of ensuring the regularity and alignment of the sheet material 20, the risk of scratching of the sheet material 20 when pulled out of the magazine 30 can be reduced, and the material damage rate can be reduced.
[0195] Figure 20 The structure diagram of the turntable device provided in the present application is shown. Figure 21 The state diagram of the turntable device provided in the present application when multiple magazines are placed.
[0196] As shown in Figure 2 , Figure 7 , Figure 20 and Figure 21As shown, the transfer device 300 comprises a rotating table 310, a rotating driving mechanism 320, a positioning seat 330, a cover loading mechanism 340 and a cover unloading mechanism 350. The rotating table 310 is provided with a plurality of positioning seats 330, which are distributed around the center of the rotating table 310. The positioning seat 330 is used to carry the second material box 30b. The positioning seat 330 is provided with a clearance groove 331 on both sides. When the second material box 30b is loaded on the positioning seat 330, the through groove 33 on both sides of the second material box 30b is communicated with the clearance groove 331 on both sides of the positioning seat 330, so that the clamping structure can be inserted into the through groove 33.
[0197] The rotating driving mechanism 320 is connected to the rotating table 310. The rotating driving mechanism 320 is used to drive the rotating table 310 to rotate, so as to drive the plurality of positioning seats 330 to move synchronously and pass through the plurality of processing stations in sequence. The plurality of processing stations include the feeding station 301, the cover loading station 305, the green material station 302, the cooked material station 303, the cover unloading station 306 and the discharging station 304 distributed in sequence.
[0198] The positioning seat 330 at the feeding station 301 carries the second material box 30b for receiving the unprocessed sheet material 20. Specifically, the feeding conveying device 400 transports the unprocessed sheet material 20 to the second material box 30b of the positioning seat 330 at the feeding station 301.
[0199] The positioning seat 330 at the cover loading station 305 is used for the cover loading mechanism 340 to cover the cover plate on the second material box 30b.
[0200] The positioning seat 330 at the green material station 302 is used for the material box conveying device 600 to obtain the second material box 30b. In the case of needing to process the green material, the transfer device 300 can transfer the second material box 30b loaded with a plurality of sheet materials 20 from the feeding station 301 to the green material station 302.
[0201] The positioning seat 330 at the cooked material station 303 is used for receiving the processed second material box 30b. In the case of needing to recycle the cooked material, the transfer device 300 can transfer the second material box 30b loaded with a plurality of sheet materials from the cooked material station 303 to the discharging station 304.
[0202] The positioning seat 330 at the cover unloading station 306 is used for the cover unloading mechanism 350 to take out the cover plate from the second material box 30b.
[0203] The positioning seat 330 at the discharging station 304 is used for the discharging conveying device 1000 to obtain the second material box 30b. Specifically, the discharging conveying device 1000 obtains the processed sheet material 20 from the second material box 30b at the discharging station 304 and transports the sheet material 20 to the discharging conveying line 1100.
[0204] In some embodiments, the transfer device 300 further comprises a plurality of support assemblies 360 corresponding to the plurality of positioning seats 330, the plurality of support assemblies 360 being disposed on the rotating table 310 and being spaced around the center of the rotating table 310, the support assemblies 360 being used for placing the cover plate 34. For example, the support assembly 360 comprises a plurality of support columns which are spaced apart, and the cover plate 34 can be inserted into the top end of the support column.
[0205] The cover plate 34 is covered on the cartridge 30 by the cover mechanism 340 in the following manner: the cover mechanism 340 absorbs and grabs the cover plate 34 placed on the support assembly 360 by the suction cup structure, and drives the cover plate 34 to move upward to separate from the support assembly 360; then, the cover plate 34 is moved above the cartridge 30; then, the cover plate 34 is lowered to cover the cartridge 30.
[0206] The cover plate 34 is detached from the cartridge 30 by the cover removal mechanism 350 in the following manner: the cover removal mechanism 350 absorbs and grabs the cover plate 34 covered on the cartridge 30 by the suction cup structure, and drives the cover plate 34 to move upward to separate from the cartridge 30; then, the cover plate 34 is moved above the support assembly 360, and the cover plate 34 is inserted and placed on the support assembly 360.
[0207] It is worth noting that in the examples of the present application, the transfer device 300 adopts a rotating disc structure, and in other embodiments, the transfer device 300 can also adopt multiple assembly lines for transporting raw materials and clinker, as long as the purpose of simultaneously feeding clinker and feeding raw materials can be achieved, and the present application does not limit this.

[0211] As shown in Figure 22 , Figure 23 and Figure 24 , in some embodiments, the cartridge clamping mechanism 610 can include a clamping base 611. The clamping base 611 can be detachably connected with the cartridge carrying drive mechanism 620. The height direction of the clamping base 611 can be defined as the vertical direction, the length direction as the first horizontal direction, and the width direction as the second horizontal direction. As shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the vertical direction can be the X' direction, the first horizontal direction can be the Y' direction, and the second horizontal direction can be the Z' direction. The vertical direction, the first horizontal direction, and the second horizontal direction are perpendicular to each other. When the cartridge clamping mechanism 610 clamps the second cartridge 30b, the height direction of the second cartridge 30b coincides with the vertical direction, the length direction coincides with the first horizontal direction, and the width direction coincides with the second horizontal direction.
[0212] The cartridge clamping mechanism 610 can further include a positioning assembly 612, a tensioning assembly 613, and a stop assembly 614. The positioning assembly 612 and the tensioning assembly 613 can receive the second cartridge 30b from the bottom. The tensioning assembly 613 can abut the second cartridge 30b on both sides in the first horizontal direction to limit the movement of the second cartridge 30b. The stop assembly 614 can abut the cover plate 201 to limit the movement of the cover plate 201.
[0213] In some embodiments, the positioning assembly 612 can include a positioning seat 6121, an elastic member (not shown in the figure), and a positioning column 6122. The positioning seat 6121 is fixedly connected with the clamping base 611. The positioning seat 6121 can be arranged in two rows in the first horizontal direction, and the number of the positioning seat 6121 in each row is at least one. Each side of the positioning seat 6121 away from the clamping base 611 is provided with a positioning groove 6123. The number of the elastic member and the positioning column 6122 can be the same as the number of the positioning seat 6121, and the plurality of positioning seats 6121, the plurality of positioning grooves 6123, the plurality of elastic members, and the plurality of positioning columns 6122 correspond one-to-one. Each positioning groove 6123 accommodates an elastic member, and the elastic member can be fixedly connected with the bottom wall of the corresponding positioning groove 6123. Part of the structure of each positioning column 6122 is accommodated in the corresponding positioning groove 6123, and each positioning column 6122 is fixedly connected with the corresponding elastic member. Each positioning column 6122 can be slidingly connected with the corresponding positioning groove 6123 in the vertical direction. The elastic member can support the corresponding positioning column 6122.
[0214] When the positioning column 6122 is pressed, the positioning column 6122 can move into the positioning groove 6123 and press the elastic member to cause elastic deformation of the elastic member. When the pressing on the positioning column 6122 is released, the elastic member can drive the positioning column 6122 to move out of the positioning groove 6123 by the elastic force generated by the elastic deformation.
[0215] It can be understood that each positioning seat 6121 can abut against the bottom of the second cartridge 30b, thereby achieving the receiving of the second cartridge 30b. Each positioning column 6122 can enter the positioning hole 38 reserved on the side of the second cartridge 30b and can abut against the inner wall of the positioning hole 38 in the vertical direction. The inner side wall of the positioning hole 38 can abut against the peripheral wall of the positioning column 6122, thereby limiting the movement of the positioning column 6122 in other directions (for example, the first horizontal direction and the second horizontal direction) perpendicular to the vertical direction. The clamping base 611 can indirectly achieve the receiving of the second cartridge 30b by the receiving of the second cartridge 30b by the positioning seat 6121.
[0216] It can be understood that the number of positioning holes 38 can be greater than or equal to the number of positioning columns 6122. When the number of positioning holes 38 is greater than the number of positioning columns 6122, part of the positioning holes 38 accommodate the corresponding positioning columns 6122 when each positioning seat 6121 abuts against the bottom of the second cartridge 30b, and the remaining positioning holes 38 are empty.
[0217] In some embodiments, the tensioning assembly 613 can include a tensioning driver 6131 and two tensioning members 6132. The tensioning driver 6131 is fixedly installed on the clamping base 611 and located between the two positioning seats 6121. The tensioning driver 6131 is arranged in the first horizontal direction and spaced apart from the two positioning seats 6121. The two tensioning members 6132 are each fixedly installed on the two movers of the tensioning driver 6131. The tensioning driver 6131 can drive the two tensioning members 6132 to move closer to or away from each other in the first horizontal direction.
[0218] It can be understood that part of each tensioning member 6132 can enter the corresponding groove 39 and abut against the top wall in the vertical direction in the corresponding groove 39 to receive the second cartridge 30b from the bottom.
[0219] Each tensioning member 6132 can also abut against the side wall of the groove 39 reserved on the side of the second cartridge 30b in the first horizontal direction, and the side wall abutting against the tensioning member 6132 in each groove 39 is located on the side of each groove 39 away from the other groove 39. In this way, the two tensioning members 6132 abut against the side walls of the corresponding grooves 39 and move away from each other, which can limit the movement of the second cartridge 30b in the first horizontal direction by tensioning.
[0220] In the embodiments of the present application, the type of the tensioning driver 6131 is not specifically limited. For example, the tensioning driver 6131 can be, but is not limited to, a linear motor, a rodless cylinder, or the like.
[0221] In some embodiments, each tensioning member 6132 can include a moving part 6133 and a first abutting part 6134. The moving part 6133 can be fixedly connected with the mover of the tensioning driver 6131. The side of the moving part 6133 in the vertical direction away from the tensioning driver 6131 can enter the groove 39 and abut against the top wall of the groove 39. The abutting part 6134 is fixedly connected to the side of the corresponding moving part 6133 away from the other moving part 6133. The first abutting part 6134 can enter the groove 39 and abut against the top wall of the groove 39 on the side in the vertical direction away from the tensioning driver 6131.
[0222] In some embodiments, the first abutting part 6134 can include a first sub-part and a second sub-part. The first sub-part is fixedly connected with the corresponding moving part 6133. The side of the first sub-part in the vertical direction away from the tensioning driver 6131 can enter the groove 39 and abut against the top wall of the groove 39. The second sub-part can be protruded on the side of the first sub-part in the first horizontal direction away from the moving part 6133. The thickness of the second sub-part in the vertical direction is less than the thickness of the first sub-part in the vertical direction. The side of the second sub-part in the vertical direction away from the tensioning driver 6131 is parallel to the side of the first sub-part in the vertical direction away from the tensioning driver 6131. The second sub-part can enter the groove 39 and abut against the top wall of the groove 39, and the side of the second sub-part away from the first sub-part can abut against the side wall of the groove 39 in the first horizontal direction, so as to limit the second cartridge 30b in the first horizontal direction by the tensioning member 6132.
[0223] For example, the edge of the groove 39 can be formed with a slot 391, and the second sub-part can enter the slot 391 on the side of the corresponding groove 39. When the two second sub-parts enter the slot 391 on the side of the corresponding groove 39, the top wall and the bottom wall in the vertical direction can block the corresponding second sub-part, so as to limit the relative movement of the second cartridge 30b and the tensioning member 6132 in the vertical direction. In this way, the tensioning member 6132 can limit the second cartridge 30b in the vertical direction and the first horizontal direction by abutting against the inner wall of the groove 39.
[0224] In some embodiments, the tensioning assembly 613 can further include at least one sliding rail 6135 and at least two sliding blocks 6136. The sliding rail 6135 can be fixedly connected with the clamping base 611 and located at one side of the tensioning driver 6131 in the second horizontal direction. The sliding rail 6135 can be spaced apart from the tensioning driver 6131. The two sliding blocks 6136 can be slidingly connected with the sliding rail 6135 in the first horizontal direction. Each of the sliding blocks 6136 can be fixedly connected with one of the tensioning members 6132.
[0225] It can be understood that the sliding blocks 6136 can receive the corresponding tensioning members 6132, thereby reducing the load of the tensioning driver 6131. The movement of the sliding blocks 6136 on the sliding rail 6135 can limit the movement track of the tensioning members 6132, reduce the shaking of the tensioning members 6132 during the movement, and improve the smoothness of the movement of the tensioning members 6132, thereby improving the smoothness of the movement of the tensioning members 6132 into the groove 39 and limiting the second cartridge 30b.
[0226] In some embodiments, the abutting assembly 614 can include a support 6141, a rotating shaft 6142, an abutting arm 6143 and an abutting driver 6144. The number of the supports 6141 can be two. The two supports 6141 can be fixedly installed on the clamping base 611. The two supports 6141 can be located at one side of the tensioning driver in the second horizontal direction and spaced apart from the tensioning driver. The rotating shaft 6142 can extend along the first horizontal direction and rotatably connected with each of the supports 6141. The abutting arm 6143 can include two rotating portions and a second abutting portion. One end of the two rotating portions can be fixedly connected with the rotating shaft 6142, so as to be rotatably connected with the support 6141 through the rotating shaft 6142. The second abutting portion can be fixedly connected with the other end of the two rotating portions, and the two rotating portions are respectively located at two ends of the second abutting portion in the first horizontal direction. The abutting driver 6144 can be fixedly installed on the clamping base 611 and connected with the abutting arm 6143. The abutting driver 6144 can drive the abutting arm 6143 to rotate, so that the second abutting portion abuts against the cover plate 201 or the sheet material.
[0227] It can be understood that the abutting driver 6144 can be directly connected with the abutting arm 6143, or the connection between the abutting driver 6144 and the abutting arm 6143 can be established through a connecting structure, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.
[0228] It can be understood that when the second cartridge 30b is received by the positioning assembly 612 and the tensioning assembly 613, the opening and the cover plate 201 are both arranged towards the abutting assembly 614. The abutting arm 6143 can abut against the cover plate 201, thereby limiting the relative movement of the cover plate 201 and the second cartridge 30b by pressing the cover plate 201. At the same time, the abutting arm 6143 can abut against the sheet material in the second cartridge 30b, thereby limiting the movement of the sheet material by directly pressing the sheet material, which can avoid the sheet material in the second cartridge 30b from being accidentally moved out of the second cartridge 30b.
[0229] It can be understood that the axis of the rotating shaft 6142 can coincide with the first horizontal direction, so that the axis of the rotating center shaft of the abutting arm 6143 coincides with the first horizontal direction.
[0230] In some embodiments, the abutting drive 6144 can include an abutting driver 6145, a connecting column 6146, and a linkage arm 6147. The mover of the abutting driver 6145 can reciprocate in the vertical direction. The stator of the abutting driver 6145 is fixedly installed on the clamping base 611. The connecting column 6146 penetrates the mover of the abutting driver 6145 in the first horizontal direction. The linkage arm 6147 is fixedly connected with the rotating shaft 6142, thereby achieving the connection with the abutting arm 6143. The linkage arm 6147 is provided with a linkage groove 61471. The linkage groove 61471 penetrates the linkage arm 6147 in the first horizontal direction. The length direction of the linkage arm 6147 is perpendicular to the first horizontal direction, and the linkage groove 61471 extends along the length direction of the linkage arm 6147. The connecting column 6146 can penetrate the linkage groove 61471, thereby achieving the connection between the linkage arm 6147 and the abutting driver 6145. The connecting column 6146 can be slidably connected with the inner wall of the linkage groove 61471 along the length direction of the linkage arm 6147, and can be slidably connected with the inner wall of the linkage groove 61471 along the circumferential direction of the connecting column 6146.
[0231] It can be understood that when the abutting driver 6145 works, the mover of the abutting driver 6145 moves in the vertical direction, which can drive the connecting column 6146 to move in the vertical direction. When the connecting column 6146 moves, it moves in the linkage groove 61471, and can drive the linkage arm 6147 and the rotating shaft 6142 to rotate, thereby synchronously driving the abutting arm 6143 to rotate. In this way, when the abutting driver 6145 works, the linear movement of the mover can drive the rotation of the abutting arm 6143, so that the abutting arm 6143 can move close to or away from the second cartridge 30b.
[0232] It can be understood that the connecting column 6146 can be fixedly connected with the mover of the abutting driver 6145, or can be rotatably connected with the mover of the abutting driver 6145, and the embodiments of the present application do not limit this.
[0233] In embodiments of the present application, the type of the abutting driver 6145 is not specifically limited. For example, the abutting driver 6145 can be, but is not limited to, a cylinder, a linear motor, etc. For example, the abutting driver 6145 can be a cylinder, the mover of the abutting driver 6145 is the piston rod of the cylinder, and the stator of the abutting driver 6145 is the cylinder body.
[0234] In embodiments of the present application, the number of the linkage arms 6147 is not specifically limited. For example, a plurality of linkage arms 6147 can be arranged in the first horizontal direction, and the connecting column 6146 can pass through the linkage slots 61471 of the plurality of linkage arms 6147.
[0235] When the material box clamping mechanism 610 provided in embodiments of the present application works, the staff or the mechanical arm in the processing equipment 100 can place the second material box 30b with the cover provided with the cover plate 201 on the tensioning member 6132 and the positioning seat 6121, so that the positioning column 6122 enters the corresponding positioning hole 38, and then the tensioning driver 6131 can drive the two tensioning members 6132 to move, so that each tensioning member 6132 abuts against the side wall in the corresponding groove 39 to limit the second material box 30b.
[0236] After the tensioning driver 6131 works or at the same time when the tensioning driver 6131 works, the abutting driver 6145 works to drive the connecting column 6146 to move in the vertical direction, so that the linkage arm 6147 rotates to drive the abutting arm 6143 to rotate synchronously. The abutting arm 6143 can press on the cover plate 201 to limit the movement of the cover plate 201. After the positioning column 6122 enters the corresponding positioning hole 38, the tensioning member 6132 abuts against the side wall of the corresponding groove 39, and the abutting arm 6143 presses on the cover plate 201, the material box carrying driving mechanism 620 can drive the material box clamping mechanism 610 and the second material box 30b to move and / or rotate synchronously, so that the second material box 30b moves to a designated position. In this way, the movement of the second material box 30b can be realized by an automatic device, the workload of the staff to move the second material box 30b is reduced, the convenience of the staff work is improved, and the efficiency of the sheet material coating processing is improved.
[0237] Figure 26 The structure schematic diagram of the boat caching device provided in the present application is shown.
[0238] As Figure 3 and Figure 26As shown, in some embodiments, the boat caching device 700 comprises caching positioning mechanisms 710 and misalignment conveying mechanisms 750. The caching positioning mechanisms 710 are configured to carry the process boats 40 and position the process boats 40 in the horizontal direction, and switch the process boats 40 to a locked state or an unlocked state. When the process boats 40 are in the locked state, the plurality of sheet materials 20 in the process boats 40 are compacted in the stacking direction. When the process boats 40 are in the unlocked state, the plurality of sheet materials 20 in the process boats 40 are decompacted.
[0239] The misalignment conveying mechanisms 750 are configured to carry at least two groups of the caching positioning mechanisms 710 that are spaced apart in the vertical direction. The misalignment conveying mechanisms 750 are further configured to drive the at least two groups of the caching positioning mechanisms 710 to move relative to each other in the horizontal direction, so that the at least two groups of the caching positioning mechanisms 710 are misaligned in the vertical direction.
[0240] It can be understood that, when the process boats 40 are carried or the second material boxes 30b are inserted, the process boats 40 on the groups of the caching positioning mechanisms 710 do not interfere with each other in the vertical direction, so that at least two groups of the process boats 40 can be simultaneously carried or the second material boxes 30b can be simultaneously inserted, thereby improving the work efficiency.
[0241] Figure 27 The structure schematic diagram of the caching positioning mechanism provided in the present application is shown.
[0242] As shown in Figure 3 , Figure 26 and Figure 27 , the caching positioning mechanisms 710 are configured to position the process boats 40. The caching positioning mechanisms 710 comprise positioning bases 711, at least one carrying assembly 712, at least one first positioning assembly 713, at least one second positioning assembly 714, at least one unlocking assembly 715, and at least one locking assembly 716. The positioning bases 711 are placed on the ground or a rack, the carrying assemblies 712 are arranged on the positioning bases 711 and are in sliding connection with the positioning bases 711, and are configured to carry the process boats 40.
[0243] The first positioning assemblies 713 are arranged on the positioning bases 711 and are configured to drive the process boats 40 to move in a first direction X1’.
[0244] The second positioning assemblies 714 are arranged on the positioning bases 711 and are configured to drive the process boats 40 to move in a second direction Y1’. The first direction X1’ and the second direction Y1’ have an included angle. The unlocking assemblies 715 are configured to switch the process boats 40 to the unlocked state. The locking assemblies 716 are configured to switch the process boats 40 to the locked state.
[0245] Specifically, the first positioning component 713 is used to provide a first driving force F1 along a first direction X1' to drive the process boat 40 to move along the first direction X1', which is the same as the extension direction of the process boat 40. The second positioning component 714 is used to provide a second driving force F2 along a second direction Y1' to drive the process boat 40 to move along the second direction Y1', which intersects the extension direction of the process boat 40.
[0246] Unlocking component 715 is fixed relative to positioning base 711 and provides a third driving force F3. Locking component 716 is fixed relative to positioning base 711 and provides a fourth driving force F4. When sheet material 20 is loaded in process boat 40, the fourth driving force F4 is used to press sheet material 20 together in the stacking direction, and the third driving force F3 is used to release sheet material 20 from pressing.
[0247] The support assembly 712 can be composed of at least two plate-like structures. The plate-like structures can be fixedly connected, with one plate-like structure near the positioning base 711 capable of sliding relative to the positioning base 711 along a first direction X1' and a second direction Y1'. Alternatively, the two plate-like structures can be slidably connected, with one plate-like structure near the positioning base 711 capable of sliding relative to the positioning base 711 along the first direction X1', and the other plate-like structure capable of sliding relative to the plate-like structure near the positioning base 711 along the second direction Y1'.
[0248] like Figure 27 As shown, the buffer positioning mechanism 710 includes three support components 712, which are spaced apart along the first direction X1'. The three support components 712 support three positions of the process boat 40, thus dispersing the force exerted by the process boat 40 on the support components 712 and preventing damage to the support components 712 due to excessive weight of the process boat 40. In practical applications, the number of support components 712 can be adjusted according to the length and weight of the process boat 40 to meet actual needs.
[0249] The first positioning component 713 may include a linear module or a robot arm, which moves to provide a first driving force F1 to drive the process boat 40 to move along a first direction X1'.
[0250] The first positioning component 713 may also include a cylinder, the cylinder rod extending and retracting to provide a first driving force F1 to drive the process boat 40 to move along a first direction X1'. The first positioning component 713 may also be other types of structures, as long as the first positioning component 713 can provide the first driving force F1, and this disclosure does not make specific limitations.
[0251] The second positioning assembly 714 can include a linear module or a mechanical hand, which moves to provide the second driving force F2 to drive the process boat 40 to move in the second direction Y1'.
[0252] The second positioning assembly 714 can also include a cylinder, the rod of which extends and retracts to provide the second driving force F2 to drive the process boat 40 to move in the second direction Y1'. The second positioning assembly 714 can also be other types of structures as long as it can provide the second driving force F2, which is not limited in the present disclosure.
[0253] The unlocking assembly 715 can include a mechanical hand, which moves to provide the third driving force F3 to make the sheet-shaped material 20 loaded in the process boat 40 be decompacted.
[0254] The unlocking assembly 715 can also include a cylinder, the rod of which extends and retracts to provide the third driving force F3 to make the sheet-shaped material 20 loaded in the process boat 40 be decompacted. The unlocking assembly 715 can also be other types of structures as long as it can provide the third driving force F3, which is not limited in the present disclosure.
[0255] The third driving force F3 can be in the direction opposite to the first direction X1', or a part of the third driving force F3 can be in the direction opposite to the first direction X1'.
[0256] The locking assembly 716 can include a mechanical hand, which moves to provide the fourth driving force F4 to make the sheet-shaped material 20 loaded in the process boat 40 be compacted in the stacking direction.
[0257] The locking assembly 716 can also include a cylinder, the rod of which extends and retracts to provide the fourth driving force F4 to make the sheet-shaped material 20 loaded in the process boat 40 be compacted in the stacking direction. The locking assembly 716 can also be other types of structures as long as it can provide the fourth driving force F4, which is not limited in the present disclosure.
[0258] The fourth driving force F4 can be in the first direction X1', or a part of the fourth driving force F4 can be in the first direction X1'.
[0259] The buffering positioning mechanism 710 provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure uses the bearing assembly 712 to bear the process boat 40, uses the first positioning assembly 713 to adjust the position of the process boat 40 in the first direction X1', and uses the second positioning assembly 714 to adjust the position of the process boat 40 in the second direction Y1', so as to realize the positioning of the process boat 40 with large bearing weight. Moreover, the bearing assembly 712 can stably bear the process boat 40 and move synchronously and in the same direction with the process boat 40 in the adjusting process, so as to ensure the stability of the adjustment.
[0260] In addition, the buffer positioning mechanism 710 uses the unlocking assembly 715 to release the compaction of the sheet material 20 loaded in the process boat 40, so as to facilitate the taking and placing of the sheet material 20 in the process boat 40; meanwhile, the locking assembly 716 is used to compact the sheet material 20 loaded in the process boat 40, so as to facilitate the positioning of the sheet material 20 after being placed in the process boat 40, thereby ensuring that the placement state of the sheet material 20 in the process boat 40 remains unchanged during the positioning of the process boat 40 by the buffer positioning mechanism 710 and the transportation of the process boat 40 by the boat transfer device 800.
[0261] In some embodiments, the buffer positioning mechanism 710 further comprises a first reference member 717, which is arranged on the positioning base 711 and is arranged opposite to the first positioning assembly 713. Under the driving of the first driving force F1, the process boat 40 moves in the first direction X1' to abut against the first reference member 717. The first positioning assembly 713 and the first reference member 717 cooperate with each other to improve the positioning accuracy of the process boat 40 in the first direction X1'.
[0262] The first reference member 717 is fixedly connected with the positioning base 711. The first reference member 717 can be fixedly connected with the positioning base 711 by welding, bonding or the like, or can be detachably connected with the positioning base 711 by bolts and nuts, screws, buckles, magnetic attraction or the like.
[0263] In some embodiments, the buffer positioning mechanism 710 further comprises a second reference member 718, which is arranged on the positioning base 711 and is arranged opposite to the second positioning assembly 714. Under the driving of the second driving force F2, the process boat 40 moves in the second direction Y1' to abut against the second reference member 718. The second positioning assembly 714 and the second reference member 718 cooperate with each other to improve the positioning accuracy of the process boat 40 in the second direction Y1'.
[0264] The second reference member 718 is fixedly connected with the positioning base 711. The second reference member 718 can be fixedly connected with the positioning base 711 by welding, bonding or the like, or can be detachably connected with the positioning base 711 by bolts and nuts, screws, buckles, magnetic attraction or the like.
[0265] In some embodiments, the buffer positioning mechanism 710 further comprises at least one first boat moving assembly 720 disposed on the positioning base 711 and located on the side of the first reference member 717 away from the bearing assembly 712, for providing a fifth driving force F5 to drive the process boat 40 to move away from the first reference member 717 in a direction opposite to the first direction X1', and to move the process boat 40 to a first preset position, so that a certain distance is maintained between the process boat 40 and the first reference member 717, thereby avoiding the process boat 40 and the first reference member 717 generating frictional force when the boat transfer device 800 moves the process boat 40 away from the buffer positioning mechanism 710, which maycause damage to the process boat 40 or make the boat transfer device 800 unable to move the process boat 40 away from the buffer positioning mechanism 710.
[0266] The first preset position can be determined according to actual needs, which is not limited in the present disclosure.
[0267] The first boat moving assembly 720 can comprise a linear module or a robot, and the linear module or the robot moves to provide the fifth driving force F5 to drive the process boat 40 to move away from the first reference member 717 in a direction opposite to the first direction X1', and to move to the first preset position.
[0268] The first boat moving assembly 720 can further comprise a pneumatic cylinder, and the pneumatic cylinder rod extends and retracts to provide the fifth driving force F5 to drive the process boat 40 to move away from the first reference member 717 in a direction opposite to the first direction X1', and to move to the first preset position.

The cylinder rods of the two first boat-shifting cylinders extend in a direction opposite to the first direction X1' until they abut against both ends of the process boat 40 along the second direction Y1'. The cylinder rods of the first boat-shifting cylinders drive the process boat 40 away from the first reference member 717 in a direction opposite to the first direction X1' and move it to a first preset position. The second boat-moving assembly 730 includes a second boat-moving cylinder, which is fixedly connected to the positioning base 711.

The unlocking cylinder 7151 is fixedly connected to the positioning base 711, and the unlocking pressing member 7152 is fixedly connected to the telescopic end of the unlocking cylinder 7151. The telescopic end of the unlocking cylinder 7151 extends in a direction opposite to the first direction X1' to drive the unlocking pressing member 7152 to move in a direction opposite to the first direction X1', so that the sheet material 20 loaded on the process boat 40 is released from compression under the action of the third driving force F3.
[0277] In some embodiments, the first positioning component 713 includes at least one first driving cylinder, which is disposed on the positioning base 711 and is used to provide a first driving force F1. Under the drive of the first driving force F1, the process boat 40 moves along a first direction X1'. The first positioning component 713 has a simple structure and its driving method is simple and reliable.
[0278] For example, the cache positioning mechanism 710 includes two first positioning components 713, which are spaced apart along the second direction Y1' and located at both ends of the positioning base 711. The two first positioning components 713 respectively abut against the two ends of the process boat 40 along the second direction Y1' to drive the process boat 40 to move along the first direction X1'.

The cylinder rod of the second driving cylinder 7141 extends along the second direction Y1’ to drive the driving member 7142 to move along the second direction Y1’ to abut against the process boat 40, and drive the process boat 40 to move along the second direction Y1’ to abut against the second reference member 718, thereby completing the positioning of the process boat 40 along the second direction Y1’.
[0283] Figure 29 An exploded view of the bearing assembly provided in the present application. Figure 30 A top view of the bearing assembly provided in the present application.
[0284] As shown in Figure 27 , Figure 29 and Figure 30 , in some embodiments, the bearing assembly 712 comprises a first carrier plate 7121 and a second carrier plate 7123. The first carrier plate 7121 is arranged transversely to the vertical direction and is slidably connected with the positioning base 711, and the first carrier plate 7121 is slidably connected with the positioning base 711 along the first direction X1’ through a first sliding rail sliding table structure 7125. The second carrier plate 7123 is arranged transversely to the vertical direction, and the second carrier plate 7123 is arranged above the first carrier plate 7121, and the second carrier plate 7123 is slidably connected with the first carrier plate 7121, and the second carrier plate 7123 is slidably connected with the first carrier plate 7121 along the second direction Y1’ through a second sliding rail sliding table structure 7126. The bearing assembly 712 has a simple and reliable structure.
[0285] In some embodiments, the bearing assembly 712 further comprises a first reset assembly 7123 configured to drive the first carrier plate 7121 to slide relative to the positioning base 711 along a direction opposite to the first direction X1’ to reset the first carrier plate 7121.
[0286] In some embodiments, the bearing assembly 712 can include two first reset assemblies 7123 and a second reset assembly 7124, the first reset assemblies 7123 being connected with the positioning base 711 and the first carrier plate 7121 respectively, and the second reset assembly 7124 being connected with the positioning base 711 and the second carrier plate 7123 respectively. When the boat transfer device 800 moves the process boat 40 away from the buffer positioning mechanism 710, the first reset assemblies 7123 drive the first carrier plate 7121 to move in the direction opposite to the first direction X1’, and the second reset assembly 7124 drives the second carrier plate 7123 to move in the direction opposite to the second direction Y1’, so as to reset the bearing assembly 712.
[0287] Exemplarily, the first reset assembly 7123 includes a first reset member 71231 and a first limiting block 71232, the first reset member 71231 being connected with the positioning base 711 through a first fixing block 71233, and the first limiting block 71232, the first carrier plate 7121, the first reset member 71231 and the first fixing block 71233 being sequentially arranged along the first direction X1’. When the boat transfer device 800 moves the process boat 40 away from the buffer positioning mechanism 710, the first reset member 71231 drives the first carrier plate 7121 to move in the direction opposite to the first direction X1’, until the first carrier plate 7121 abuts against the first limiting block 71232, so as to reset the first carrier plate 7121.
[0288] The first reset member 71231 can be a first elastic member, which can be connected with the first carrier plate 7121. When the first carrier plate 7121 moves along the first direction X1’, the first carrier plate 7121 extrudes the first elastic member. When the boat transfer device 800 moves the process boat 40 away from the buffer positioning mechanism 710, the elastic restoring force of the first elastic member drives the first carrier plate 7121 to move in the direction opposite to the first direction X1’.
[0289] Exemplarily, the second reset assembly 7124 includes a second reset member 71241 and a second limiting block 71242, the second reset member 71241 being connected with the first carrier plate 7121 through a second fixing block 71243, and the second limiting block 71242, the second carrier plate 7123, the second reset member 71241 and the second fixing block 71243 being sequentially arranged along the second direction Y1’. When the boat transfer device 800 moves the process boat 40 away from the buffer positioning mechanism 710, the second reset member 71241 drives the second carrier plate 7123 to move in the direction opposite to the second direction Y1’, until the second carrier plate 7123 abuts against the second limiting block 71242, so as to reset the second carrier plate 7123.
[0290] The second reset member 71241 can be a second elastic member, which can be connected with the second carrier plate 7123. When the second carrier plate 7123 moves along the second direction Y1', the second carrier plate 7123 presses the second elastic member. When the boat transfer device 800 moves the process boat 40 away from the buffer positioning mechanism 710, the elastic restoring force of the second elastic member drives the second carrier plate 7123 to move along a direction opposite to the second direction Y1'.
[0291] Figure 31 For Figure 4 A local enlarged view at B in FIG. 7.
[0292] As Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 27 And Figure 31 As shown in some embodiments, the pressing assembly 42 is connected with the bearing base 41 and moves towards or away from the pressing opening to press or release the sheet material 20 in the containing cavity 44. The limiting assembly 43 is used to limit the pressing assembly 42. The pressing assembly 42 includes a connecting rod and a plurality of pressing plates, and the plurality of pressing plates are connected with the connecting rod. The pressing plates press the sheet material 20 by pressing the cover plate 34, the connecting rod is connected with the locking assembly 716, and the connecting rod moves under the drive of the locking assembly 716 to drive the plurality of pressing plates to move.
[0293] The locking assembly 716 drives the pressing assembly 42 to move towards the containing cavity 44 to press the sheet material 20 in the containing cavity 44, so that the sheet material 20 is pressed along the stacking direction.
[0294] The unlocking assembly 715 drives the pressing assembly 42 to move away from the containing cavity 44 to release the sheet material 20 in the containing cavity 44, so that the sheet material 20 is released from the pressing.
[0295] The buffer positioning mechanism 710 further includes a limiting release assembly 740 for driving the limiting assembly 43 to move to release the limiting of the limiting assembly 43 to the pressing assembly 42.
[0296] Exemplarily, the limiting assembly 43 comprises a fixed limiting block 431 and a rotating limiting block 432, the fixed limiting block 431 is fixedly connected with the connecting rod of the pressing assembly 42, and the rotating limiting block 432 is rotatably connected with the process boat 40. The fixed limiting block 431 has a first inclined surface 4311, and the rotating limiting block 432 has a second inclined surface 4321. The vertical height of the first inclined surface 4311 gradually increases along the first direction X1', and the vertical height of the second inclined surface 4321 gradually increases along the first direction X1'. Before the pressing assembly 42 presses the sheet-shaped material 20 in the containing cavity 44, the second inclined surface 4321 is in contact with the first inclined surface 4311. Under the driving of the locking assembly 716, the fixed limiting block 431 moves along the first direction X1' to move the first inclined surface 4311 relative to the second inclined surface 4321 until the first inclined surface 4311 is separated from the second inclined surface 4321. Then, the locking assembly 716 stops moving, the rotating limiting block 432 abuts against the fixed limiting block 431, so that the limiting assembly 43 limits the pressing assembly 42. When the locking assembly 716 is reset, the limiting assembly 43 can prevent the pressing assembly 42 from moving away from the containing cavity 44, so as to ensure that the pressing assembly 42 continuously presses the sheet-shaped material 20 in the containing cavity 44 during the movement of the process boat 40, and the placement state of the sheet-shaped material 20 in the containing cavity 44 remains unchanged.
[0297] Exemplarily, the limiting releasing assembly 740 is arranged on the driving member 7142, and the limiting releasing assembly 740 comprises a releasing cylinder 741, a releasing connecting member 742 and a top member 743. The releasing cylinder 741 is vertically arranged, the releasing connecting member 742 is connected with the telescopic end of the releasing cylinder 741, and the top member 743 is connected with the releasing connecting member 742. The telescopic end of the releasing cylinder 741 extends upward to drive the releasing connecting member 742 to move upward, so as to drive the top member 743 to move upward to abut against the rotating limiting block 432, and drive the rotating limiting block 432 to rotate, so that the rotating limiting block 432 no longer abuts against the fixed limiting block 431, and finally the limiting of the limiting assembly 43 to the pressing assembly 42 is released.
[0298] Figure 32 A top view of the boat caching device provided in the present application is shown.
[0299] As shown in Figure 3 , Figure 26 and Figure 32 , the misaligned conveying mechanism 750 comprises at least two first stations 7501 and at least two second stations 7502. The at least two first stations 7501 are arranged in sequence along the vertical direction, and the at least two second stations 7502 are arranged in sequence along the vertical direction. The first stations 7501 and the second stations 7502 are arranged in one-to-one correspondence in the horizontal direction, and the preset direction intersects the vertical direction. For the convenience of understanding, Figure 32The first station 7501 and the second station 7502 are separated by a dashed line a. In the first station 7501, the process boat 40 supply box handling device 600 performs insertion or extraction of the second box 30b; in the second station 7502, the process boat 40 supply boat transfer device 800 performs handling.
[0300] The misaligned conveying mechanism 750 includes at least two conveying mechanisms 751 arranged in sequence in the vertical direction, each of which is used to convey the process boat 40 from the first station 7501 to the second station 7502, or from the second station 7502 to the first station 7501.
[0301] For example, while one of the conveying mechanisms 751 is conveying one of the process boats 40 from the first station 7501 to the second station 7502, the other of the conveying mechanisms 751 is at the second station 7502, and the other of the conveying mechanisms 751 is in an idle state, waiting to receive another of the process boats 40.
[0302] While one of the conveying mechanisms 751 is conveying one of the process boats 40 from the first station 7501 to the second station 7502, the other of the conveying mechanisms 751 is conveying another of the process boats 40 from the second station 7502 to the first station 7501.
[0303] The misaligned conveying mechanism 750 provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure can achieve that, after one of the conveying mechanisms 751 at at least one of the second stations 7502 receives one of the process boats 40, at least one of the other conveying mechanisms 751 conveys another of the process boats 40 from at least one of the first stations 7501 to at least one of the second stations 7502, so that another of the process boats 40 is carried away by the conveying mechanism 751 at at least one of the second stations 7502, without replacing the second box 30b in the process boat 40 at the second station 7502, thereby shortening the handling time of the process boat 40 and thus shortening the processing cycle.
[0304] In some embodiments, the conveying mechanism 751 includes a support frame 752 and a driving assembly 753, the buffer positioning mechanism 710 is slidably connected to the support frame 752 through a slide rail sliding table structure, for carrying the process boat 40, and the driving assembly 753 is connected to the buffer positioning mechanism 710 and is configured to drive the buffer positioning mechanism 710 to move in a first direction X1', which is a direction from the second station 7502 to the first station 7501 or a direction from the first station 7501 to the second station 7502.
[0305] Figure 33 For Figure 26 A local enlarged view at B in the middle. Figure 34 For Figure 26 A local enlarged view at C in the middle.
[0306] As Figure 26 , Figure 33 and Figure 34 shown, in some embodiments, the driving assembly 753 includes a driving motor 7531, a gear 7532 and a rack 7533. The driving motor 7531 is connected with the buffer positioning mechanism 710, and the driving motor 7531 has a power output shaft for outputting driving force. The gear 7532 is sleeved on the power output shaft, and the gear 7532 rotates with the power output shaft under the driving of the driving force. The rack 7533 is connected with the support frame 752, and the rack 7533 extends along the first direction X1’. The gear 7532 is engaged with the rack 7533.
[0307] The rack 7533 is fixedly connected with the support frame 752, which can be detachably connected with the support frame 752 by means of bolts and nuts, screws, buckles, magnetic attraction and the like.
[0308] In some embodiments, the driving assembly 753 further includes a connecting rod assembly 7534, a driving wheel 7535, a driven wheel 7536 and a synchronous belt 7537. The connecting rod assembly 7534 is rotatably connected with the buffer positioning mechanism 710, and the extension direction of the connecting rod assembly 7534 intersects the first direction X1’. The driving wheel 7535 is sleeved on the power output shaft, and the driving wheel 7535 rotates with the power output shaft under the driving of the driving force. The driven wheel 7536 is sleeved on the first end of the connecting rod assembly 7534, and the synchronous belt 7537 is connected with the driving wheel 7535 and the driven wheel 7536. One of the gears 7532 is sleeved on the first end of the connecting rod assembly, and the other gear 7532 is sleeved on the second end of the connecting rod assembly. The two racks 7533 are arranged in the second direction Y1’ with a spacing, and the gear 7532 is engaged with the rack 7533 one by one, and the second direction Y1’ is perpendicular to the first direction X1’.
[0309] The power output shaft of the driving motor 7531 drives the driving wheel 7535 to rotate, the driving wheel 7535 drives the synchronous belt 7537 to move, the synchronous belt 7537 drives the driven wheel 7536 to rotate, the driven wheel 7536 drives the connecting rod assembly 7534 to rotate, the connecting rod assembly 7534 drives the gear 7532 to rotate, and the gear 7532 moves along the extension direction of the rack 7533, thereby driving the buffer positioning mechanism 710 to move along the first direction X1’.
[0310] Exemplarily, the driving assembly 753 of the lower conveying mechanism 751 is arranged in the middle part of the buffer positioning mechanism 710, and the driving motor 7531 is vertically arranged.
[0311] In some embodiments, the linkage assembly 7534 comprises a plurality of connecting rods and at least one universal joint. The plurality of connecting rods are connected in sequence, and at least one connecting rod is rotatably connected with the buffer positioning mechanism 710. The driven wheel 7536 and one gear 7532 are sleeved on the first connecting rod, and another gear 7532 is sleeved on the last connecting rod. The at least one universal joint is arranged between adjacent connecting rods, and the two ends of the universal joint are connected with the adjacent connecting rods, respectively.
[0312] If only one connecting rod is provided, the connecting rod is relatively long. Due to installation errors, the two ends of the connecting rod can not be in the same horizontal plane, so that the two gears 7532 sleeved on the two ends of the connecting rod are not in the same horizontal plane, thereby causing the gears 7532 to be stuck or jammed during movement along the extension direction of the rack 7533. The use of the universal joint can eliminate installation errors, so that the two ends of the linkage assembly 7534 remain in the same horizontal plane, thereby keeping the two gears 7532 sleeved on the two ends of the linkage assembly 7534 in the same horizontal plane, and further avoiding the gears 7532 from being stuck or jammed during movement along the extension direction of the rack 7533.
[0313] Figure 35 A structure schematic diagram of the blank carrying device is provided.
[0314] As shown in Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 7 and Figure 35 , in some embodiments, the blank carrying device 1000 comprises a blank clamping jaw mechanism 1010, a rotating transfer mechanism 1020, and a blank grabbing driving mechanism 1030. The blank clamping jaw mechanism 1010 is used to extend into the magazine 30 to grab or release the sheet material 20. When the blank clamping jaw mechanism 1010 grabs the sheet material 20, the blank clamping jaw mechanism 1010 abuts against both sides of the plurality of sheet materials 20 and compresses the plurality of sheet materials 20 in the stacking direction. The rotating transfer mechanism 1020 is connected to the blank clamping jaw mechanism 1010, and the rotating transfer mechanism 1020 moves synchronously with the blank clamping jaw mechanism 1010.
[0315] The rotating transfer mechanism 1020 is used to drive the blank clamping jaw mechanism 1010 to rotate. The blank grabbing driving mechanism 1030 is connected to the blank clamping jaw mechanism 1010. The blank grabbing driving mechanism 1030 is used to drive the rotating transfer mechanism 1020 to move, so as to drive the blank clamping jaw mechanism 1010 to extend into or out of the magazine 30.
[0316] The implementation principle of the blank clamping jaw mechanism for grabbing and compressing the sheet material is the same as that of the feeding clamping jaw mechanism, which will not be described herein.
[0317] It can be understood that the overall placement angle of the material box 30 will change during the movement of the material box 30 driven by the transfer device 300. The present application adjusts the rotation angle of the discharging gripper mechanism 1010 through the rotating transfer mechanism 1020, so that the discharging gripper mechanism 1010 can grasp the sheet material 20 at different angles, and also can insert the sheet material 20 into the material box 30 at a specified angle after grasping the sheet material 20, so as to ensure the normal execution of the moving operation.
[0318] In the examples of the present application, the working mode of the discharging and carrying device 1000 can be: the discharging and carrying device 1000 grasps the sheet material 20 from the second material box 30b of the transfer device 300, takes out the sheet material 20 from the second material box 30b, and then transports the second material box 30b into the material box 30 pre-placed on the discharging conveying line 1100. It is worth noting that the material box 30 pre-placed on the discharging conveying line 1100 can be the empty material box 30 transported to the discharging conveying line 1100 by the material box backflow device 500.
[0319] Finally, it should be noted that the above examples are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application and are not limiting. Although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, it should be understood by those skilled in the art that the technical solutions of the present application can be modified or replaced equivalently without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present application.
