[0008] In the above technical solution, further, it also includes: Two material waiting tables are respectively fixedly mounted on the inner walls of both sides of the U-shaped frame. A material discharge trough and a waste material trough are provided on the material waiting tables. The transmission frame is located between the two material discharge troughs.

[0009] In this technical solution, employees can put a large number of plates in the discharge trough. When the information of the plates detected and identified by the visual system of the laser scanner is transmitted to the intelligent analysis processor, the intelligent analysis processor analyzes that the quality of the plates is unqualified. At this time, the intelligent analysis processor sends information to the PLC controller, allowing the PLC controller to control hydraulic cylinder 1, hydraulic cylinder 2, control components, vacuum generator, air compressor and inflator to operate, so that the vacuum suction cup can absorb the unqualified plates and move them to the waste trough, which is convenient for employees to take them out for return processing.

[0019] In this technical solution, it is ensured that when the vacuum generator is running, the air in the vacuum suction cup will enter the vacuum generator, so that negative pressure is formed inside the vacuum suction cup to stably adsorb the plate, making it convenient to replace the vacuum suction cup.

[0020] In the above technical solution, further, the power assembly includes: Two rollers are rotatably mounted in a transmission frame and located in a conveyor belt. A second motor is fixedly mounted on one side of the transmission frame, and an output shaft of the second motor passes through one side of the transmission frame and is coaxially connected to one of the rollers.

[0021] In this technical solution, it is ensured that when motor 2 is started, the output shaft of motor 2 can drive one of the rollers to rotate, one of the rollers drives the conveyor belt to transmit, and the conveyor belt drives another roller to rotate, so that the conveyor belt can drive the plate transportation normally.

[0022] In the above technical solution, further, the output shaft of the second motor is rotatably connected to the transmission frame, the top of the sensor is in contact with the inner wall of the conveyor belt, the sensor is fixed to the transmission frame by screws, and the sensor and the feedback machine are electrically connected.

[0023] In this technical solution, it is ensured that Motor 2 can operate normally on the transmission rack. When the conveyor belt transports the plates, it will pass through several sensors. The sensors sense the weight of the plates and transmit the weight information to the feedback machine, which then feeds back the information to the intelligent analysis processor. The intelligent analysis processor then analyzes the information to ensure the stability of the plates and prevent the plates from stacking or getting stuck. The speed of Motor 2 is adjusted according to the feedback signal from the feedback machine to ensure that the conveyor belt drives the plates to flow smoothly.

[0024] In the above technical solution, further, the intelligent analysis processor is electrically connected to the PLC controller, the feedback machine and the laser scanner, and the PLC controller is electrically connected to the hydraulic cylinder 1, the hydraulic cylinder 2, the motor 1, the hydraulic cylinder 4, the air compressor, the inflator, the vacuum generator, the laser scanner, the motor 2 and the sensor.

At the same time, the feedback machine can send the information sensed by the sensor to the intelligent analysis processor for processing, and the information scanned by the laser scanner will also be sent to the intelligent analysis processor for processing.

[0025] The beneficial effects of the present invention are: 1. The plate-unordered automatic feeding equipment uses the transmission rack and U-shaped rack to allow employees to place the plates to be loaded on both sides of the transmission rack. Then, the PLC controller is started to drive the two laser scanners to scan the plates on both sides of the transmission rack. At the same time, through the image processing algorithm inside the laser scanner, the laser scanner's visual system can detect and identify the position, posture, size and other information of each plate in real time, and the laser scanner transmits the scanned information to the intelligent analysis processor. The intelligent analysis processor system determines the exact position and direction of the plate by analyzing the image information, providing data support for the next step of transportation, avoiding differences in the type, specification, size and surface characteristics of the plate, which leads to increased downtime of the overall device.

[0026] 2. For this plate disorderly automatic feeding equipment, the intelligent analysis processor sends the processed data instructions to the PLC controller, which drives the hydraulic cylinder 1, hydraulic cylinder 2, control component, vacuum generator, air compressor and inflator to operate. The output shaft of hydraulic cylinder 1 pushes hydraulic cylinder 2 to move, and then the output shaft of hydraulic cylinder 2 pushes the control component and the mobile platform to move down together. At the same time, the control component also controls the mobile platform to move directly above the plate. Subsequently, the inflator starts and delivers air to the inflation pipe. Under the action of air pressure, the air in the inflation pipe passes through four jet pipes. Blow on the plate and just below the four vacuum suction cups to remove the floating dust on the plate and prevent the vacuum suction cup from being unable to absorb the plate, until the downward vacuum suction cup presses against the upper plate of the plate to produce extrusion. At the same time, the air compressor starts and delivers air to the circular pipe, and the circular pipe then supplies air to the four vacuum generators respectively. The four vacuum generators also start working. When the air flows into the vacuum generator, the vacuum suction cup will be able to absorb the plate to prevent the plate from tilting, flipping or dislocation during the automatic loading process, ensuring that the plate is stacked stably without causing material waste or equipment damage.

[0027] 3. For this disorderly automatic plate feeding equipment, the PLC controller will control the power component to drive the conveyor belt to transmit the plates. During the transmission process, the conveyor belt will squeeze on several vacuum generators, air compressors and inflator sensors. The sensors sense the weight of the conveyor belt and feed back to the feedback machine, allowing the feedback machine to analyze and determine whether the plates on the conveyor belt are inaccurately positioned or stacked irregularly. If the conveyor belt transports the plates normally, the feedback machine will not feed back to the intelligent analysis processor, ensuring that the overall device will not have errors during the feeding process, thereby avoiding affecting the subsequent production and processing efficiency.

[0035] Embodiment 1: See also Figure 1-7 As shown in the figure, this embodiment provides a disorderly automatic feeding device for plates, including a U-shaped frame 1, and also including: A chute 11, the chute 11 is opened at the top of the U-shaped frame 1, and a hydraulic cylinder 1 2 is fixedly installed at the top of the U-shaped frame 1 and at both ends of the chute 11, and a hydraulic cylinder 2 21 is fixedly installed on the output shafts of the two hydraulic cylinders 1 2 and located in the chute 11; Two moving platforms 41, the two moving platforms 41 are respectively arranged below the two hydraulic cylinders 21, and the output shafts of the hydraulic cylinders 21 are provided with control components for driving the moving platforms 41 to move and rotate; Two inflation tubes 6, the two inflation tubes 6 are respectively fixedly installed at the bottom of the two moving platforms 41, and four jet tubes 61 are fixedly installed at the bottom of the inflation tube 6, two vacuum generators 5 are fixedly installed at the bottom of the moving platform 41 and on both sides of the inflation tube 6, and a vacuum suction cup 51 is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the vacuum generator 5, a round groove 42 is opened in the moving platform 41, a round tube 43 is fixedly installed in the round groove 42, and the four bottom ends of the round tube 43 are respectively connected with the four vacuum generators 5, an air compressor 44 and an inflation machine 62 are fixedly installed on the top of the moving platform 41, and the air outlet pipe of the air compressor 44 is connected with the round tube 43, and the air outlet pipe of the inflation machine 62 is connected with the inflation tube 6; Two laser scanners 7, the two laser scanners 7 are fixedly mounted on the bottom of the two moving platforms 41 respectively; The intelligent analysis processor 110 and the PLC controller 111 are both fixedly mounted on the U-shaped frame 1; A transmission frame 8, which is disposed in the U-shaped frame 1 and is located below the two moving platforms 41. A conveyor belt 81 and a feedback machine 91 are disposed on the transmission frame 8, and a plurality of sensors 9 are disposed in the conveyor belt 81; A power assembly is arranged on the transmission frame 8 and is used to drive the conveyor belt 81 for transmission.

[0036] ·It can be seen from this embodiment that, by setting up the transmission rack 8 and the U-shaped rack 1, the staff can place the plates to be loaded on both sides of the transmission rack 8, and then start the PLC controller 111 to drive the two laser scanners 7 to run, and the two laser scanners 7 respectively scan the plates on both sides of the transmission rack 8. At the same time, through the image processing algorithm inside the laser scanner 7, the visual system of the laser scanner 7 can detect and identify the position, posture, size and other information of each plate in real time, and the laser scanner 7 transmits the scanned information to the intelligent analysis processor 110, and the intelligent analysis processor 110 system determines the accurate position and direction of the plate by analyzing the image information, and provides data support for the next step of handling, so as to avoid differences in the type, specification, size and surface characteristics of the plate, which leads to an increase in the downtime of the overall device; Subsequently, the intelligent analysis processor 110 sends the processed data instructions to the PLC controller 111, and the PLC controller 111 drives the hydraulic cylinder 1 2, the hydraulic cylinder 2 21, the control component, the vacuum generator 5, the air compressor 44 and the inflator 62 to operate. The output shaft of the hydraulic cylinder 1 2 pushes the hydraulic cylinder 2 21 to move, and then the output shaft of the hydraulic cylinder 2 21 pushes the control component and the moving platform 41 to move downward together. At the same time, the control component also controls the moving platform 41 to move to the top of the plate. Subsequently, the inflator 62 starts and delivers air to the inflation pipe 6. At the pressure Under the action, the air in the inflation tube 6 is blown onto the plate through four jet pipes 61 and is located directly below the four vacuum suction cups 51, removing the floating dust on the plate and preventing the vacuum suction cups 51 from being unable to suck the plate, until the downwardly moved vacuum suction cups 51 are pressed against the upper plate of the plate to produce extrusion. At the same time, the air compressor 44 starts and delivers air to the loop pipe 43, and the loop pipe 43 then delivers air to the four vacuum generators 5 respectively. The four vacuum generators 5 also start working. When the air enters the vacuum generator 5, according to Bernoulli's theorem, as the fluid velocity increases, its static pressure will decrease. When the high-speed airflow is ejected from the nozzle of the vacuum generator 5, a low-pressure area will be formed around the nozzle outlet. The negative pressure generated by this low-pressure area can "entrain" the surrounding air to enter. This phenomenon is called "entrainment flow". Since the jet airflow forms a low-pressure area in the adsorption chamber, the pressure in the adsorption chamber is lower than the surrounding atmospheric pressure, thereby generating a vacuum, ensuring that the vacuum suction cup 51 can adsorb the plate, preventing the plate from tilting, turning over or misaligning during the automatic loading process, and ensuring that the plate is stacked stably without causing material waste or equipment damage.

[0037] At this time, the intelligent analysis processor 110 will also systematically analyze whether the plate is a qualified product. When it is determined that it is a qualified product plate, the intelligent analysis processor 110 sends information to the PLC controller 111, and the PLC controller 111 controls the hydraulic cylinder 1 2, the hydraulic cylinder 2 21 and the control component to work again, so that the control component is adjusted according to the shape and size of the plate to ensure that the plate can be smoothly placed on the conveyor belt 81. Subsequently, the output shaft of the hydraulic cylinder 1 2 pushes the hydraulic cylinder 2 21 to move toward the transmission rack 8. At the same time, the output shaft of the hydraulic cylinder 2 21 drives the moving platform 41 and the plate to a height of 0.5 cm directly above the transmission rack 8 through the control component. Then, the air compressor 44 stops supplying air to the loop tube 43. Under the action of atmospheric pressure, the negative pressure in the vacuum generator 5 slowly recovers, and the vacuum suction cup 51 slowly extends and can no longer absorb the plate, and the plate will fall on the conveyor belt 81. At the same time, the PLC controller 111 will control the power component to drive the conveyor belt 81 to transport the plates. During the transmission process, the conveyor belt 81 will be squeezed on several vacuum generators 5, air compressors 44 and inflator 62 sensors 9. The sensor 9 senses the weight of the conveyor belt 81 and feeds back to the feedback machine 91, allowing the feedback machine 91 to analyze and determine whether the plates on the conveyor belt 81 are inaccurately positioned or stacked irregularly. If the conveyor belt 81 transports the plates normally, the feedback machine 91 will not feed back to the intelligent analysis processor 110, ensuring that the overall device will not have errors during the loading process, thereby avoiding affecting the subsequent production and processing efficiency.

[0038] Embodiment 2: This embodiment provides a plate disorderly automatic feeding device, which, in addition to the technical solutions of the above embodiments, also has the following technical features, including: Two material waiting tables 12 are respectively fixedly mounted on the inner walls of both sides of the U-shaped frame 1 .

[0039] It can be seen from the present embodiment that the employees can place a large number of plates in the discharge trough 13. When the information of the plates detected and identified by the visual system of the laser scanner 7 is transmitted to the intelligent analysis processor 110, the intelligent analysis processor 110 analyzes that the quality of the plates is unqualified. At this time, the intelligent analysis processor 110 sends information to the PLC controller 111, allowing the PLC controller 111 to control the hydraulic cylinder 1 2, hydraulic cylinder 2 21, control components, vacuum generator 5, air compressor 44 and inflator 62 to operate, so that the vacuum suction cup 51 can absorb the unqualified plates and move them to the waste trough 14, which is convenient for employees to take them out for return processing.

[0041] It can be seen from the present embodiment that after the hydraulic cylinder 44 is started, the output shaft of the hydraulic cylinder 44 can drive the movable platform 41 to move forward and backward. At the same time, after the motor 23 is started, the output shaft of the motor 23 can drive the hydraulic cylinder 44 to rotate, and the hydraulic cylinder 44 will drive the movable platform 41 to rotate, ensuring that the vacuum suction cup 51 can drive the plate to rotate after adsorbing the plate, and adjust the direction of the plate to facilitate placing it on the conveyor belt 81 more conveniently.

[0051] It can be seen from this embodiment that when the motor 2 83 is started, the output shaft of the motor 2 83 can drive one of the rollers 82 to rotate, and one of the rollers 82 drives the conveyor belt 81 to transmit, and the conveyor belt 81 drives another roller 82 to rotate, so that the conveyor belt 81 can normally drive the sheet transportation.

[0052] Embodiment 9: The present embodiment provides a disorderly automatic feeding device for plates. In addition to the technical solutions of the above-mentioned embodiments, it also has the following technical features: the output shaft of the motor 83 is rotatably connected to the transmission frame 8, the top of the sensor 9 is in contact with the inner wall of the conveyor belt 81, the sensor 9 is fixed to the transmission frame 8 by screws, and the sensor 9 and the feedback machine 91 are electrically connected.

[0053] It can be seen from the present embodiment that in order to ensure that the motor 2 83 can operate normally on the transmission frame 8, when the conveyor belt 81 moves while transporting the plates, it will pass through a number of sensors 9, and the sensors 9 will sense the weight of the plates and transmit the weight information to the feedback machine 91, which will then feed back the information to the intelligent analysis processor 110, which will then analyze the information to ensure the stability of the plates and prevent the plates from stacking or getting stuck, and adjust the rotation speed of the motor 2 83 according to the feedback signal of the feedback machine 91 to ensure that the conveyor belt 81 drives the plates to flow smoothly.

[0054] Embodiment 10: The present embodiment provides an automatic disorderly feeding device for plates. In addition to the technical solutions of the above-mentioned embodiments, it also has the following technical features: the intelligent analysis processor 110 is electrically connected to the PLC controller 111, the feedback machine 91 and the laser scanner 7; the PLC controller 111 is electrically connected to the hydraulic cylinder 1 2, the hydraulic cylinder 2 21, the motor 1 23, the hydraulic cylinder 4 4, the air compressor 44, the inflator 62, the vacuum generator 5, the laser scanner 7, the motor 2 83 and the sensor 9.

[0055] It can be seen from the present embodiment that the data processed by the intelligent analysis processor 110 is sent to the PLC controller 111, and the PLC controller 111 controls the operation of hydraulic cylinder 1 2, hydraulic cylinder 2 21, motor 1 23, hydraulic cylinder 4 4, air compressor 44, inflator 62, vacuum generator 5, laser scanner 7, motor 2 83 and sensor 9. At the same time, the feedback machine 91 can send the information sensed by the sensor 9 to the intelligent analysis processor 110 for processing, and the information scanned by the laser scanner 7 will also be sent to the intelligent analysis processor 110 for processing.

[0056] Working principle: Employees can place the plates to be loaded on the discharge trough 13, and then start the PLC controller 111 to drive the two laser scanners 7 to run. The two laser scanners 7 scan the plates on the discharge trough 13 respectively. At the same time, through the image processing algorithm inside the laser scanner 7, the visual system of the laser scanner 7 can detect and identify the position, posture, size and other information of each plate in real time, and the laser scanner 7 transmits the scanned information to the intelligent analysis processor 110. The intelligent analysis processor 110 system determines the accurate position and direction of the plate by analyzing the image information, and provides data support for the next step of handling, so as to avoid differences in the type, specification, size and surface characteristics of the plate, which leads to increased downtime of the overall device. Subsequently, the intelligent analysis processor 110 sends the processed data instructions to the PLC controller 111, and the PLC controller 111 drives the hydraulic cylinder 1 2, the hydraulic cylinder 2 21, the motor 1 23, the hydraulic cylinder 4 4, the vacuum generator 5, the air compressor 44 and the inflator 62 to operate. The output shaft of the hydraulic cylinder 1 2 pushes the hydraulic cylinder 2 21 to move, and then the output shaft of the hydraulic cylinder 2 21 pushes the protective shell 22, the motor 1 23 and the hydraulic cylinder 4 4 to move downward together. At the same time, the output shaft of the hydraulic cylinder 4 4 will also drive the moving platform 41 to move to the top of the plate. Subsequently, the inflator 62 starts and pushes the inflator pipe 6 The air in the air-filled tube 6 is blown onto the plate through four jet pipes 61 and located directly below the four vacuum cups 51 under the action of air pressure to remove the floating dust on the plate and prevent the vacuum cups 51 from being unable to suck the plate, until the vacuum cups 51 that move downward are pressed against the upper plate of the plate to produce extrusion. At the same time, the air compressor 44 starts and transports air into the loop pipe 43, and the loop pipe 43 then respectively transports air to the four vacuum generators 5, and the four vacuum generators 5 also start working. When the air enters the vacuum generator 5, according to Bernoulli's theorem, as the fluid velocity increases, its static pressure will decrease. When the high-speed airflow is ejected from the nozzle of the vacuum generator 5, a low-pressure area will be formed around the nozzle outlet. The negative pressure generated by this low-pressure area can "entrain" the surrounding air to enter. This phenomenon is called "entrainment flow". Since the jet airflow forms a low-pressure area in the adsorption chamber, the pressure in the adsorption chamber is lower than the surrounding atmospheric pressure, thereby generating a vacuum, ensuring that the vacuum suction cup 51 can adsorb the plate, preventing the plate from tilting, turning over or misaligning during the automatic loading process, and ensuring that the plate is stacked stably without causing material waste or equipment damage.

[0057] At this time, the intelligent analysis processor 110 will also systematically analyze whether the plate is a qualified product. When it is determined that it is a qualified product plate, the intelligent analysis processor 110 sends information to the PLC controller 111, and the PLC controller 111 controls the hydraulic cylinder 1 2, the hydraulic cylinder 2 21, the motor 1 23 and the hydraulic cylinder 4 4 to work again, so that the control component adjusts the position and direction according to the shape and size of the plate to ensure that the plate can be smoothly placed on the conveyor belt 81. Subsequently, the output shaft of the hydraulic cylinder 1 2 pushes the hydraulic cylinder 2 21 to move toward the transmission rack 8. At the same time, the output shaft of the hydraulic cylinder 2 21 drives the moving platform 41 and the plate to a height of 0.5 cm directly above the transmission rack 8 through the control component. Then, the air compressor 44 stops supplying air to the loop tube 43. Under the action of atmospheric pressure, the negative pressure in the vacuum generator 5 slowly recovers, and the vacuum suction cup 51 slowly extends and can no longer absorb the plate, and the plate will fall on the conveyor belt 81. When it is determined that the plate is an unqualified product, the intelligent analysis processor 110 sends information to the PLC controller 111, and the PLC controller 111 controls the hydraulic cylinder 1 2, the hydraulic cylinder 2 21, the motor 1 23 and the hydraulic cylinder 4 4 to work again, so that the control component adjusts the position and direction according to the shape and size of the plate to ensure that the plate can be smoothly placed on the waste trough 14. Subsequently, the output shaft of the hydraulic cylinder 1 2 pulls the hydraulic cylinder 2 21 to move away from the transmission rack 8. At the same time, the output shaft of the hydraulic cylinder 2 21 drives the moving platform 41 and the plate to move to the waste trough 14 through the control component, and the air compressor 44 stops supplying air to the loop pipe 43. Under the action of atmospheric pressure, the negative pressure in the vacuum generator 5 slowly recovers, and the vacuum suction cup 51 slowly extends and cannot absorb the plate, and the plate will fall on the waste trough 14 to ensure the quality of the plate. At the same time, the PLC controller 111 will control the power component to drive the conveyor belt 81 to transport the plates. During the transmission process, the conveyor belt 81 will be squeezed on several vacuum generators 5, air compressors 44 and inflator 62 sensors 9. The sensor 9 senses the weight of the conveyor belt 81 and feeds back to the feedback machine 91, allowing the feedback machine 91 to analyze and determine whether the plates on the conveyor belt 81 are inaccurately positioned or stacked irregularly. If the conveyor belt 81 transports the plates normally, the feedback machine 91 will not feed back to the intelligent analysis processor 110, ensuring that the overall device will not have errors during the loading process, thereby avoiding affecting the subsequent production and processing efficiency.

[0058] When the feedback machine 91 determines that there is a problem with the plate on the conveyor belt 81, the feedback machine 91 information will be fed back to the intelligent analysis processor 110, and the intelligent analysis processor 110 will analyze the information and send it to the PLC controller 111, so that the PLC controller 111 can control the hydraulic cylinder 1 2, hydraulic cylinder 2 21, motor 1 23, hydraulic cylinder 4 4, vacuum generator 5, air compressor 44 and inflator 62 to stop running. At this time, personnel will come to take out the problematic plate.
