Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of production line management, and in particular to a production line box data reading and cross-correlation system and method. Background Art

[0002] In the process of building a digital information system for packaging boxes on the production line, packaging boxes loaded with digital information (such as QR codes, one-dimensional codes, and digital codes, etc.) are usually moved to the packaging box position on the production line in turn, and then the digital information of each package is read through manual data collection or automatic data collection, and sent to the on-site industrial computer for data processing. Then, according to the number of packaging boxes that the packaging box can accommodate, the packaging boxes are manually or automatically loaded into the packaging box in turn. In this way, the information system in the on-site industrial computer can easily realize the data correspondence between the digital information of the packaging box and the digital information of the packaging box.

[0003] However, the packing method and data correspondence between the packaging boxes and packaging boxes on the production line are not always as simple as above, and are often quite complex. For example, if several packaging boxes with different numbers are packed into several different packaging boxes, and if you want to accurately obtain the number of the packaging boxes in each packaging box, it cannot be achieved through simple manual or automatic data collection (conventional data collection is to directly set the packaging boxes in the corresponding packaging box with sequential numbers, but it is impossible to load packaging boxes with numbers 1, 2, 3, 7, 8, 9 in packaging box No. 1, and packaging boxes with numbers 4, 5, 6, 10, 11, 12 in packaging box No. 2).

[0004] The existing technology for the above problem is generally to screen manually, but it is very easy to make mistakes and the efficiency is very low. Therefore, it is necessary to adopt the corresponding information collection and association methods according to the operation mode of the production line to effectively solve the information system construction of packaging box packing, so as to realize the information management of enterprise products in various production, circulation and sales links.

Obviously, for ordinary technicians in this field, other drawings can be obtained based on these drawings without any creative work.

[0045] Figure 2 This is a flow chart of a production line box data reading and cross-correlation method for the present application. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0046] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0047] The packing method of the packaging boxes faced by the present application is: the packaging boxes loaded with digital information (such as: QR code, one-dimensional code and digital code, etc.) are sequentially loaded into two different packaging boxes at the same time according to the number of corresponding packaging after data information collection. For example, the number of packaging boxes that can be loaded into a packaging box is 12 (or 16, or 20), and each time, each group of 6 packaging boxes is divided into 2 groups and loaded into two packaging boxes respectively (for example: packaging boxes No. 1, 2, and 3 are loaded into the first box, and packaging boxes No. 4, 5, and 6 are loaded into the second box). When the second group of 6 packaging boxes arrives, they are divided into 2 groups and loaded into the same two packaging boxes respectively (for example: packaging boxes No. 7, 8, and 9 are loaded into the first box, and packaging boxes No. 10, 11, and 12 are loaded into the second box). In this way, the packaging is repeated 4 times, and 24 packaging boxes can fill the two packaging boxes.

[0048] Finally, the numbers of the boxes in the first box are: (1, 2, 3); (7, 8, 9); (13, 14, 15); (19, 20, 21). The numbers of the boxes in the second box are: (4, 5, 6); (10, 11, 12); (16, 17, 18); (22, 23, 24).

[0049] Accordingly, when the second group of 24 packaging boxes arrive at the packing position after digital collection, they are packed into the third box and the fourth box respectively in the same way.

[0050] In this cycle, the same packing process is repeatedly implemented, and when the packaging boxes are correspondingly loaded into the packaging boxes, the digital information on the packaging boxes is correspondingly associated with the digital information on the packaging boxes.

[0051] Based on the above problems, the present application provides the following embodiments.

[0052] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of a production line box data reading and cross-correlation system for the present application.

[0053] See also Figure 1 It can be seen that this embodiment provides a production line box data reading and cross-correlation system, the system comprising:

[0054] A packaging box production line 100 and a packaging box production line 200 are arranged in parallel, wherein the packaging box production line 100 is configured to carry packaging boxes along a preset direction, and the packaging box production line 200 is configured to carry packaging boxes along a preset direction; the packaging boxes are all in a top-opening state.

[0055] Specifically, in this embodiment, the packaging box production line 100 is used to transport the packaging boxes along a preset direction, and the packaging box production line 200 is used to transport the packaging boxes along a preset direction. The packaging box production line 100 and the packaging box production line 200 provide a moving object and a moving target position for this embodiment.

[0056] The system further comprises:

[0057] The data acquisition component 300 is configured to obtain first digital information of all the packaging boxes and to obtain second digital information of the packaging boxes; the first digital information includes a first serial number of the packaging box, and the second digital information includes a second serial number of the packaging box, the first serial number is used to represent the serial position of the corresponding packaging box among all the packaging boxes, and the second serial number is used to represent the serial position of the corresponding packaging box among all the packaging boxes.

[0058] Specifically, in this embodiment, the digital information of each packing box and each packing box is collected respectively by the data collection component 300, and the position of each packing box among all the packing boxes and the position of each packing box among all the packing boxes are summarized based on the digital information.

[0059] The data acquisition component 300 can also be used to match each of the packaging boxes and each of the packaging boxes to be placed in the packaging box.

[0060] The system further comprises:

[0061] A transmission mechanism component 400 is set up on both sides of the packaging box production line 100 and the packaging box production line 200, and the transmission mechanism component 400 is configured to move a preset number of the packaging boxes to the corresponding packaging boxes according to a corresponding control instruction until the number of the packaging boxes in the packaging box reaches a maximum number; the preset number is less than the maximum number; the control instruction is obtained according to the first digital information and the second digital information, and the control instruction includes the correspondence between the second serial number and the first serial number.

[0062] Specifically, in the present embodiment, the transmission mechanism assembly 400 is used to transfer the packaging box to the packaging box. Since there is data cross-correlation in some operating situations, the assembly method of the packaging box is somewhat different from the conventional assembly scheme. Specifically, the conventional packaging box assembly method is generally to move the packaging box to one of the packaging boxes first until all packaging boxes in a certain sequence are loaded into the same packaging box. In the present embodiment, each packaging box and each packaging box are serially numbered, and the packaging boxes with corresponding serial numbers are loaded into the packaging boxes with corresponding serial numbers. Each time the packaging boxes are moved, one or several packaging boxes can be moved at the same time. This not only realizes the data identification and cross-correlation of the production line boxes, but also greatly expands the assembly method.

[0063] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the data acquisition component 300 includes:

[0064] A box photoelectric switch 310, wherein the box photoelectric switch 310 is disposed at one side of the packaging box production line 200, and the box photoelectric switch 310 is configured to generate a first signal when the packaging box reaches a first designated position;

[0065] A box digital reader 320, wherein the box digital reader 320 is disposed on one side of the packaging box production line 200, and the box digital reader 320 is disposed on the side facing the packaging box information code, and the box digital reader 320 is configured to obtain information of the packaging box information code according to the first signal, so as to obtain the second digital information corresponding to the packaging box.

[0066] Specifically, in this embodiment, the box photoelectric switch 310 is installed on the side of the packaging box production line 200 to detect the information of the packaging box passing through, and send the status of the packaging box passing to the control system of the on-site industrial computer 500, so that the control system can control the box digital reader 320 to scan the code and collect information, and the control system counts the packaging boxes. When the packaging box reaches the box blocking plate 460, it stops moving forward. When the number of packaging boxes counted reaches the number of boxes to be grabbed at one time, for example, 6 boxes, the system will grab the packaging box and pack it.

[0067] The box digital reader 320 is used to read the digital information of the packaging boxes passing through the packaging box production line. When the box photoelectric switch 310 detects that a packaging box passes through the production line, it sends a detection signal to the on-site industrial computer 500, and the on-site industrial computer 500 controls the box digital reader 320 to read the digital information on the packaging box and save it in the system of the on-site industrial computer 500 for the corresponding association of the digital information between the packaging box and the packaging box to be loaded.

[0068] The box blocking plate 460 is fixedly arranged on the box conveying line of the box production line 200. The on-site industrial computer 500 is configured to generate the corresponding control instructions according to the first digital information and the second digital information, and the control instructions are used to drive the transmission mechanism assembly 400 to move the corresponding number of boxes into the corresponding packaging box.

[0072] Specifically, in this embodiment, the box photoelectric switch 330 is installed on the side of the packaging box production line 100 to detect the information of the packaging box passing through, and send the status of the packaging box passing to the control system of the on-site industrial computer 500, so that the control system can control the box digital reader 340 to scan the code and collect information. At the same time, the control system counts the packaging boxes. When the packaging box reaches the box blocking plate, it stops moving forward. When the number of packaging boxes counted reaches the number of boxes packed at the same time, such as 2 boxes, the system will grab the packaging box and pack it.

[0073] The box digital reader 340 is used to read the digital information of the open packaging box passing through the packaging box production line. When the box photoelectric switch 330 detects that a packaging box passes through the production line, it sends a detection signal to the on-site industrial computer 500, and the on-site industrial computer 500 controls the box digital reader 340 to read the digital information on the packaging box and save it in the system of the on-site industrial computer 500 for the corresponding association of the digital information between the packaging box and the packaging box to be loaded.

[0084] Specifically, in this embodiment, the horizontal movable beam 431 is installed between the horizontal fixed beams at the top of the first fixed truss and the second fixed truss, and is at right angles to both, and moves horizontally back and forth on the tooth groove through the gear moving mechanism.

[0085] The first horizontal moving motor 432 is used to control the horizontal moving beam 431 to move back and forth above the packaging box production line 100 and the packaging box production line 200 .

[0086] The transmission mechanism assembly 400 further includes:

[0087] At least two groups of vertical moving mechanisms 440, the vertical moving mechanisms 440 corresponding to the horizontal moving mechanisms 430 one by one, the vertical moving mechanisms 440 connected to the horizontal moving mechanisms 430, and the vertical moving mechanisms 440 configured to move in a vertical direction according to the control command;

[0089] Specifically, in the present embodiment, the vertical moving mechanism 440 is fixedly connected to the horizontal moving mechanism 430, and the movement in the vertical direction is realized through the internal structure of the vertical moving mechanism 440. The adsorption structure 450 is moved to a designated position through the horizontal moving mechanism 430 and the vertical moving mechanism 440, and a preset number of packaging boxes are adsorbed through the adsorption structure 450. Similarly, the horizontal moving mechanism 430 and the vertical moving mechanism 440 are driven to move to a designated position on the top of the packaging box, and the packaging box is placed at a designated position in the packaging box through the adsorption structure 450.

[0090] Wherein, the vertical movement mechanism 440 comprises:

[0091] A vertical rod transmission block 441, wherein the vertical rod transmission block 441 is connected to the horizontal moving beam 431;

[0092] A vertical movable pole 442, wherein the vertical movable pole 442 is slidably connected to the pole transmission block 441, and the vertical movable pole 442 extends in a vertical direction;

[0097] Specifically, in this embodiment, the first horizontal moving motor 432 is used to control the horizontal moving beam 431 to move back and forth above the packaging box production line 100 and the packaging box production line 200, and at the same time transport the packaging box grabbed by the adsorption robot 451 to the top of the packaging box.

[0098] The vertical rod transmission block 441 controls the vertical movable vertical rod 442 to rise and fall when receiving the command of the control system on-site industrial computer 500, so as to complete the packaging box grabbing operation of the packaging box production line 200 and the packaging box packing operation of the packaging box production line 100.

[0099] The vertical moving motor 443 is used to control the vertical rod transmission block 441 to operate the vertical moving vertical rod 442 to rise and fall.

[0100] The adsorption manipulator 451 is installed at the end of the vertical movable pole 442 and is connected to the vacuum air pump 452.

Then, the vertical moving pole 442 rises again under the control of the vertical pole transmission block 441, waiting to move to the top of the packaging box production line 100 for box packing.

[0103] It should be noted that the packaging box is a packaging box that has been packaged and loaded with a two-dimensional code digital. It is transmitted forward on the packaging box production line 200, and after being detected by the box photoelectric switch 310 and scanned and collected by the box digital reader 320, it arrives at the forward box loading position to wait for grabbing and loading. The two-dimensional code loaded on the packaging box is used to record the information of the packaging box so as to correspond and associate the information with the packaging box, and then correspond and associate with the pallet information, so as to realize the enterprise product information management of the production, warehousing, logistics and sales of each packaging box.

[0104] The packaging box is an open empty packaging box loaded with a QR code, which is transmitted forward on the packaging box production line, and after being detected by the box photoelectric switch 330 and scanned and collected by the box digital reader 340, it arrives at the front box loading position to wait for the packaging box to be loaded. The QR code loaded on the packaging box is used to record the information of the packaging box, so as to correspond and associate the information with the packaging, and then correspond and associate with the pallet information, so as to realize the enterprise product information management of the production, warehousing, logistics and sales of each packaging box.

[0105] Figure 2 This is a flow chart of a production line box data reading and cross-correlation method for the present application.

[0106] See also Figure 2 It can be seen that this embodiment also provides a method for reading and cross-correlating box data of a production line, the method comprising:

[0107] S1, obtaining first digital information of packaging boxes in a packaging box production line and second digital information of packaging boxes in a packaging box production line; the first digital information includes a first serial number of the packaging box, and the second digital information includes a second serial number of the packaging box, the first serial number is used to represent the serial position of the corresponding packaging box among all the packaging boxes, and the second serial number is used to represent the serial position of the corresponding packaging box among all the packaging boxes;

[0108] S2, generating a control instruction according to the first digital information and the second digital information;

[0109] S3, according to the control instruction, driving the transmission mechanism component to move a preset number of the packaging boxes to the corresponding packaging box until the number of the packaging boxes in the packaging box reaches a maximum number; the preset number is less than the maximum number; the control instruction is obtained according to the first digital information and the second digital information, and the control instruction includes the correspondence between the second serial number and the first serial number.

[0110] Specifically, in this embodiment, the process of the production line box data reading and cross-correlation method includes:

[0111] The finished packaging boxes loaded with digital information such as a two-dimensional code, a one-dimensional code and a digital code move forward from left to right on the packaging box production line 200 in the direction of the arrow.

[0112] When the box photoelectric switch 310 detects that the packaging box has passed, it sends a detection signal of the box passing to the on-site industrial computer 500 , and the on-site industrial computer 500 sends a scanning control signal to the box digital reader 320 .

[0113] After the box digital reader 320 reads the digital information of the packaging box, it transmits the collected digital information to the on-site industrial computer 500, and the on-site industrial computer 500 saves it into the database system for data processing of the packaging box information.

[0114] After the code is read, the packaging box moves forward and stops at the box blocking plate 460. When the code reading count reaches the number of boxes to be packed once, for example, 6 boxes, the box is ready for packing.

[0115] An open empty packaging box loaded with digital information such as a two-dimensional code, a one-dimensional code, and a digital code moves forward from left to right on the packaging box production line 100 in the direction of the arrow.

[0116] When the box photoelectric switch 330 detects that the packaging box has passed, it sends a detection signal of the box passing to the on-site industrial computer 500, and the on-site industrial computer 500 sends a scanning control signal to the box digital reader 340.

[0117] After the box digital reader 340 has read the digital information of the packaging box, the collected digital information is transmitted to the on-site industrial computer 500, and the on-site industrial computer 500 saves the digital information into the database system for data processing of the packaging box information.

[0118] After the code is read, the packaging box moves forward and stops when it reaches the box passage cylinder where it is blocked by the cylinder piston rod. When the code reading count reaches the number of boxes to be packed, such as 2 boxes, the packaging box loading operation is processed.

[0119] While waiting for the packaging boxes and the packaging box code reading operation, the control system in the on-site industrial computer 500 controls the horizontal moving mechanism 430 to make the horizontal moving beam 431 stay directly above the packaging box production line 200. When waiting for the packaging boxes to reach the number of boxes to be packed at one time, such as 6 boxes, the control system controls the vertical moving mechanism 440 to grab the packaging boxes.

[0120] When the number of packaging boxes reaches the number of boxes to be packed at one time, the control system controls the vertical moving motor 443 of the vertical moving mechanism 440 to operate the vertical moving pole 442 through the pole transmission block 441 to drive the adsorption robot 451 to descend to the top of the packaging box to be packed.

[0121] The control system controls the vacuum air pump 452 to work, so that the adsorption manipulator 451 and the vacuum air pump 452 air source are in a vacuum state. Each adsorption manipulator corresponds to 3 packaging boxes respectively, and under the action of the vacuum air pump, 6 packaging boxes are adsorbed and picked up at the same time.

[0122] The control system controls the vertical rod transmission block 441 to rise to the highest position and stop. At this time, the control system controls the first horizontal movement motor 432 to work, driving the horizontal movement beam 431 to move above the packaging box production line 100.

[0123] The horizontally movable crossbeam 431 stops when it moves to the top of the packaging box production line 100. According to the position of each packing, the control system controls the vertical rod transmission block 441 to move downward to the top of the packaging box.

[0124] When the adsorption robot 451 is in the correct position for each packing, the control system controls the vacuum air pump 452 to stop working and cuts off the vacuum air source, so that the adsorption robot 451 loses its adsorption force on the packaging box, and at the same time, 6 packaging boxes, every 3 boxes, are dropped into different packaging boxes, completing a packing.

[0125] Then, the control system controls the vertical moving mechanism 440 to raise the vertical rod transmission block 441 to the top, and then controls the horizontal moving mechanism 430 to make the horizontal moving beam 431 return to the top of the packaging box production line 200 to wait for the next round of box packing work cycle.

[0126] If 12 boxes are packed into one box, then four round trips can fill up two boxes at the same time.

[0127] After the two boxes are filled at the same time, the control system controls the box passage cylinder to retract the cylinder piston rod, and the two filled boxes continue to move forward on the transmission production line to reach the subsequent sealing and loading links.

[0128] By continuously circulating in sequence, the packaging boxes on the packaging box production line 200 can be continuously loaded into the packaging boxes on the packaging box production line 100, completing the entire process of sequentially scanning the codes of the packaging boxes, cross-packing and digital cross-correspondence.

[0129] Exemplary, box-in-box digital collection cross-correlation rules:

[0130] The packaging boxes loaded with the two-dimensional code digital information pass through the box photoelectric switch 310 and the box digital reader 320. The box digital reader 320 reads the digital information (such as the two-dimensional code) on each box in turn and sends it to the on-site industrial computer 500 for information processing;

[0131] The packaging box stops moving after reaching the box blocking plate 460. When the number of packaging boxes reaches the number of the length of two packaging boxes, for example, each box can hold 3 boxes (or 4 boxes) in the length direction, then the length of two boxes must reach 6 boxes (or 8 boxes), where the length unit is 3 boxes.

[0132] The on-site industrial computer 500 controls the horizontal moving mechanism 430 to move, so that the adsorption manipulator 451 reaches the top of the packaging box production line 200, and then controls the two vertical moving mechanisms 440 to move downward and stop above the packaging box, and then controls the two adsorption manipulators 451 to adsorb and grab 3 packaging boxes respectively;

[0133] The on-site industrial computer 500 controls the two vertical moving mechanisms 440 to move upward, and then controls the horizontal moving mechanism 430 to move to the top of the two packaging boxes, and then controls the two vertical moving mechanisms 440 to move downward according to the set position, and puts the two groups of 6 packaging boxes into the two packaging boxes respectively;

[0134] If each packing box can hold 12 boxes, repeat the above process 4 times to load 24 boxes into two packing boxes at the same time;

[0135] Box packing counts and association rules:

[0136] Assuming that each packaging box is filled with 12 boxes, the suction robot needs to grasp the 24 boxes in 4 times to complete the packing of 2 boxes at the same time.

[0137] Assumptions:

[0138] The number of boxes counted is m, and the count values ​​are: m1, m2, m3, m4, m5, m6, m7, m8, m9, m10, ...;

[0139] The count quantity of every 24 packaging boxes is M, and the count values ​​are: M1, M2, M3, M4, M5, M6, M7, M8, M9, M10, Mn;

[0140] Then: M1=m1+m2; M2=m3+m4; M3=m5+m6; M4=m7+m8; M5=m9+m10;…;

[0141] Assumptions:

[0142] The number of packaging boxes counted is n, and the count values ​​are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, n;

[0143] The number of counts for every three packaging boxes is N, and the number of counting groups is N1, N2, N3, N4, N5, N6, N7, N8, N9, N10, and Nn.

[0144] Then: N1 = 3 (0 < n / 3 ≤ 1); N3 = 3 (2 < n / 3 ≤ 3); N5 = 3 (4 < n / 3 ≤ 5); N7 = 3 (6 < n / 3 ≤ 7), four groups of 12 boxes are packed into the first box m1, that is: m1 = N1 + N3 + N5 + N7. The QR code information of these 12 boxes is associated with the QR code information of the packaging box m1 in the system;

[0145] N2=3(1<n / 3≤2); N4=3(3<n / 3≤4); N6=3(5<n / 3≤6); N8=3(7<n / 3≤8), four groups of 12 boxes are loaded into the second box m2, that is: m2=N2+N4+N6+N8. The QR code information of these 12 boxes is associated with the QR code information of the packaging box m2 in the system;

[0146] In the first group of 24 packages, M1=m1+m2.

[0147] in conclusion:

[0148] In the first group of 24 packaging boxes M1, that is: 0<n / 24≤1, m1=N1+N3+N5+N7; m2=N2+N4+N6+N8; and M1=m1+m2.

[0149] That is: in each packing box of 24 pieces, n / 3, all the quotients with remainders that are even and the quotients without remainders that are odd, a total of 12 pieces, are placed in the corresponding odd-number packing box m1;

[0150] All quotients with remainders are odd numbers, and quotients without remainders are even numbers. There are 12 packaging boxes in total, which are placed in the corresponding even-numbered packaging box m2. The corresponding QR code digital information in the system is also associated accordingly;

[0151] According to this principle:

[0152] In the second group of 24 packaging boxes M2, that is, 1<n / 24≤2, m3=N9+N11+N13+N15;

[0153] m4=N10+N12+N14+N16; and M2=m3+m4.

[0154] That is: in each group of 24 packaging boxes, n / 3, the quotient value with remainder is an even number, and the quotient value without remainder is an odd number, a total of 12 packaging boxes, put in the corresponding odd-number packaging box m3;

[0155] All quotients with remainders that are odd numbers and quotients without remainders that are even numbers, a total of 12 packaging boxes, are placed in the corresponding even-numbered packaging box m4, and the corresponding QR code digital information in the system is also associated accordingly.

[0156] It should be noted that the system and method parts are based on the example of placing 3 packaging boxes in each of two packaging boxes at a time. In fact, there can be multiple packaging boxes, and the corresponding manipulators are also set to multiple. The number of packaging boxes placed each time can be any number greater than 2.

[0157] The advantages of this embodiment include:

[0158] In this embodiment, the packaging boxes loaded with digital information are loaded into two packaging boxes at the same time for multiple times, and the digital information of the packaging boxes loaded into each packaging box is accurately matched and associated with the digital information of the loaded packaging box. Thus, the automated and rapid production operation of packaging boxes into packaging boxes on the production line is realized, which greatly improves the accuracy and work efficiency of packaging box packing operations, and also greatly improves the efficiency of enterprise information management and the overall benefits of the enterprise.
