[0045] like Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, the present invention provides an automatic feeding system, including a first grasping device 2, a cover opening device 3, a weighing device 4, a glue making device 6 and a material barrel 7; the first grasping device 2 grasps the material barrel 7 and transfers it to the cover opening device 3; the cover opening device 3 opens the barrel cover of the material barrel 7, the first grasping device 2 grasps the material barrel 7 and places it on the weighing device 4 for weighing, and pours the material in the material barrel 7 after bearing the weight into the glue making device 6.

[0046] Compared with the prior art, the automatic feeding system provided by the present invention has the following advantages:

[0047] The automatic feeding system provided by the present invention can realize the transfer and transportation of the barrel 7 through the first grasping device 2, and can realize the opening of the barrel cover of the sealed barrel 7 through the lid opening device 3, so as to achieve the purpose of pouring the material. Correspondingly, the glue making device 6 can carry the material in the barrel 7 and make it into a corresponding colloid product. Since the glue making process requires strict control of the weight of each material to ensure the proportion balance of each material, the weight of the barrel 7 before and after feeding can be realized through the weighing device 4, so that the amount of material put into the glue making device 6 can be accurately known, and the precise control of the amount of material in the glue making operation can be realized.

[0048] In actual operation, the first grabbing device 2 first grabs and moves the barrel 7 to the lid opening device 3, and the lid opening device 3 can open the barrel cover of the barrel 7. After that, the first grabbing device 2 grabs and moves the barrel 7 after the lid is opened to the weighing device 4 for weighing. After the weighing is completed, the first grabbing device 2 is used to move the barrel 7 after the lid is opened to the glue making device 6, and the feeding operation is realized through the feeding port of the glue making device 6. After the feeding is completed, the glue making operation is realized through the glue making device 6.

[0049] Correspondingly, when feeding, the first grasping device 2 always grasps the material barrel 7 to realize the feeding of materials. After the feeding is completed, the material barrel 7 is transferred to the weighing device 4 through the first grasping device 2, so that the material barrel 7 after feeding can be weighed, and then the feeding amount can be obtained at one time, thereby realizing accurate control of material feeding.

[0050] Since the automatic feeding system provided in the present application can greatly reduce manual participation, it can not only avoid the need for high-altitude operations during the manual feeding process, which poses a safety hazard, but also better adapt to existing production lines, improve production rhythm, and speed up production efficiency.

[0051] It should be additionally explained here that the first grasping device 2 in the present application can adopt a traditional robotic arm structure. By using the robotic arm, small-scale grasping, transfer, and dumping actions can be performed, thereby realizing the above-mentioned functions.

[0052] Alternatively, if Figure 1 Combination Figure 5 As shown, the cover opening device 3 in the present application includes a machine platform 301, a positioning assembly and multiple cover prying assemblies; the positioning assembly and the multiple cover prying assemblies are all arranged on the machine platform 301, and the multiple cover prying assemblies are distributed along the circumference of the positioning assembly; the positioning assembly includes a positioning seat 302 and a first tightening member 303, the positioning seat 302 is ring-shaped, the first tightening member 303 is arranged along the circumference of the positioning seat 302, and can reduce or restore the inner ring diameter of the positioning seat 302.

[0053] During operation, the first grasping device 2 grasps the material barrel 7 into the lid opening device 3, the machine platform 301 can realize the stable placement of the material barrel 7, and the positioning seat 302 arranged on the machine platform 301 can position the material barrel 7. Accordingly, since the positioning seat 302 in the present application is annular, a circular or nearly circular positioning space can be formed. By placing the material barrel 7 into the positioning space, the problem of tipping over when opening the lid can be avoided.

[0054] Furthermore, since the first expansion member 303 is provided on the inner wall of the positioning seat 302 and along the circumference of the positioning seat 302 in the present application, and the first expansion member 303 can reduce or restore the inner ring diameter of the positioning seat 302, when the barrel 7 is placed in the above-mentioned positioning space, the expansion of the first expansion member 303 can reduce the inner ring diameter of the positioning seat 302, thereby achieving the expansion and positioning of the barrel 7. When the cover is opened, the first expansion member 303 contracts, releases the barrel 7, and the barrel 7 is taken out by the first grasping device 2, and the next step of operation is continued.

[0055] It can be understood that since the multiple lid prying assemblies in the present application are distributed along the circumference of the positioning seat 302, during operation, the lid prying actions in multiple directions can be performed simultaneously to achieve uniform force on the barrel lid, making the lid opening process more labor-saving and faster.

[0056] Alternatively, if Figure 5 As shown, the pry cover assembly in the present application includes a second driving member 304, a third driving member 305 and a pry bar 306; the second driving member 304 is arranged on the machine table 301, and the driving end of the second driving member 304 is connected to the main body of the third driving member 305, which is used to drive the third driving member 305 to reciprocate in the first direction S1; the driving end of the third driving member 305 is connected to the pry bar 306.

[0057] The second driving member 304 and the third driving member 305 in the present application can both adopt a linear telescopic motion structure such as an electric telescopic rod, a cylinder or an oil cylinder. The second driving member 304 in the present application extends along the first direction S1. In most cases, the material barrel 7 is placed vertically to prevent the material from spilling after the cover of the material barrel 7 is opened. Therefore, the first direction S1 in the present application mainly refers to the vertical direction. The second driving member 304 can drive the third driving member 305 to move in the vertical direction. Accordingly, Figure 5 As shown, since the driving end of the third driving member 305 in the present application is connected to the crowbar 306, the third driving member 305 extends along the second direction S2, and the second direction S2 in the present application is an inclined direction. Therefore, when the cover opening operation is required, the third driving member 305 is first used to drive the crowbar 306 to move toward the barrel cover close to the barrel 7 until it abuts against the edge of the barrel cover, and then the second driving member 304 rises, so that the barrel cover can be pried open by the crowbar 306, thereby realizing the cover opening action of the barrel 7. When the cover opening is completed, the loose barrel cover can be removed by the first grasping device 2 and placed in the designated position. At the same time, the third driving member 305 drives the crowbar 306 to be recovered, and the second driving member 304 drives the third driving member 305 to descend, completing a cover opening operation.

[0058] Alternatively, if Figure 5 As shown, the cover opening device 3 in the present application also includes a limiting assembly; the limiting assembly includes a limiting bar 309, a connecting seat 308 and a fourth driving member 307, one end of the limiting bar 309 is connected to the connecting seat 308, the driving end of the fourth driving member 307 is connected to the connecting seat 308, and the fourth driving member 307 can drive the connecting seat 308 to rotate.

[0059] The fourth driving member 307 in the present application is a rotating cylinder, and the driving end of the rotating cylinder can drive the connecting seat 308 to rotate. Since the limiting strip 309 in the present application is connected to the connecting seat 308, when the connecting seat 308 rotates, it can drive the limiting strip 309 to rotate, so that the barrel cover of the material barrel 7 can be supported by the limiting strip 309, and the barrel cover can be lifted up in cooperation with the above-mentioned crowbar 306, and the problem of the barrel cover bouncing off at the moment of opening can be avoided to a certain extent.

[0060] Alternatively, if Figure 8-Figure 10As shown, the glue making device 6 in the present application includes a tank body 601 and a cover body 602; the cover body 602 is sealed on the opening of the tank body 601, an automatic feeding port 6023 is formed on the cover body 602, a first sealing cover 6024 is provided at the opening of the automatic feeding port 6023, and an opening component is provided on the cover body 602 at a position corresponding to the first sealing cover 6024, the opening component includes a fifth driving member 605, a pulling member 606 and an extension block 607, the extension block 607 is connected to the first sealing cover 6024, one end of the pulling member 606 is connected to the extension block 607, and the other end is connected to the driving end of the fifth driving member 605.

[0061] By forming an automatic feeding port 6023 on the cover body 602, and providing a first sealing cover 6024 at the automatic feeding port 6023, and controlling the opening or blocking of the opening by the first sealing cover 6024 through the opening cover assembly, the opening and closing of the automatic feeding port 6023 can be realized. When feeding is required, the opening cover assembly opens the first sealing cover 6024 to open the automatic feeding port 6023. During actual operation, the pulling member 606 is driven by the fifth driving member 605. Since the pulling member 606 is connected to the extension block 607, and the extension block is connected to the first sealing cover 6024, the opening and closing of the first sealing cover 6024 can be realized.

[0062] Preferably, the fifth driving member 605 in the present application is a motor, and the pulling member 606 is a pull rope, which can be wound around the output end of the motor. When the motor rotates, the pull rope can be wound or released, thereby realizing the opening or closing of the first cover 6024.

[0063] Preferably, a connecting piece 6025 may be provided between the first cover 6024 and the opening in the present application, and the connecting piece 6025 may be a structure such as a torsion spring, through which the first cover 6024 can be automatically returned to its original position, and pressure can be applied to the first cover 6024 to a certain extent when the cover is open, thereby ensuring the sealing performance of the opening.

[0064] Further preferably, in the present application, a manual feeding port 6021 is also formed on the cover body 602, and a second sealing cover 6022 is provided at the manual feeding port 6021. Accordingly, the second sealing cover 6022 can also be rotatably connected to the cover body 602 through a connecting member 6025, and the connecting member 6025 can also adopt a torsion spring. Through the manual feeding port, when a small amount of material needs to be supplemented or when the automatic feeding port 6023 fails and cannot be opened, the operation of the overall system can be continued.

[0065] It should be noted that the glue making device 6 in the present application also includes a stirring motor 603 and a dispersing motor 604 . The stirring motor 603 and the dispersing motor 604 are both arranged on the cover 602 , and the output end is located in the tank body 601 to mix the materials in the tank body 601 .

[0066] Alternatively, if Figure 8-Figure 10 As shown, a pressure cover assembly 608 is also provided at a position on the cover body 602 corresponding to the first cover 6024 in the present application; the pressure cover assembly 608 includes a sixth driving member 6081, a crank 6082, a bracket 6083 and a pressing head 6084, the driving end of the sixth driving member 6081 is connected to one end of the crank 6082, one end of the bracket 6083 is connected to the cover body 602, and the other end is rotatably connected to the crank 6082, the pressing head 6084 is arranged at one end of the crank 6082 away from the sixth driving member 6081, and the sixth driving member 6081 can drive the pressing head 6084 to move in a direction close to or away from the first cover 6024.

[0067] By arranging a pressure cover assembly 608 at the edge of the first cover 6024, it is possible to further apply pressure to the first cover 6024 when the first cover 6024 is closed, thereby ensuring the sealing between the first cover 6024 and the opening.

[0068] It can be understood that the sixth driving member 6081 in the present application is a cylinder, which can drive the crank 6082 to rotate relative to the bracket 6083 through the extension and contraction of the cylinder, so that the pressure head 6084 can move in a direction close to or away from the first cover 6024, thereby achieving the purpose of pressing the first cover 6024 tightly.

[0069] Alternatively, if Figure 1 Combination Figure 2 As shown, the automatic feeding system provided by the present invention further includes an automatic transport device, which includes a transport mechanism and a bearing member 1 , and the transport mechanism transports the material barrel 7 to the bearing member 1 .

[0070] The load-bearing component 1 in the present application is a pallet that can carry the barrel 7, and the transportation mechanism can adopt existing automatic transportation equipment such as AGV trolleys or forklifts, so as to realize the transfer and transportation of the pallet carrying the barrel 7 or the empty pallet.

[0071] Preferably, the bearing member 1 in the present application is formed with a plurality of receiving grooves for bearing the material barrel 7 .

[0072] Alternatively, if Figure 3 Combination Figure 4As shown, the first grasping device 2 in the present application includes a first mechanical arm 201 and a first grasping mechanism 202; the first grasping mechanism 202 includes a mounting disk 2022 and a plurality of jaw assemblies, one end of the first mechanical arm 201 is connected to the mounting disk 2022, and the plurality of jaw assemblies are evenly distributed along the circumference of the mounting disk 2022; the plurality of jaw assemblies each include a jaw and a first driving member 2021, the first driving member 2021 is installed on the mounting disk 2022, one end of the jaw is connected to the driving end of the first driving member 2021, and the first driving member 2021 can drive the jaw to reciprocate radially along the mounting disk 2022.

[0073] The first robot arm 201 can realize 360° movement and vertical movement, thereby driving the first grasping mechanism 202 to transport the material barrel 7 to a specified position.

[0074] Since the first grasping mechanism 202 in the present application includes a mounting disk 2022 and a plurality of clamps evenly distributed along the circumference of the mounting disk 2022, the clamps can be released and retracted in the radial direction of the mounting disk 2022 by driving the first driving member 2021 to move back and forth, thereby grasping and releasing the barrel 7, and further realizing the transfer and transportation of the barrel 7.

[0075] Preferably, if Figure 3 Combination Figure 4 As shown, the clamp in the present application includes a connecting section 2023 and a bending section 2024, one end of the connecting section 2023 is connected to the first driving member 2021, and the other end is connected to the bending section 2024, and the bending section 2024 is set at an angle to the connecting section 2023.

[0076] It is understandable that, in order to ensure the grasping of the material barrel 7, the angle between the bending section 2024 and the connecting section 2023 in the present application does not exceed 90°.
