DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0023] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more clear, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings of 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. Generally, the components of the embodiments of the present invention described and shown in the drawings herein can be arranged and designed in various different configurations.

[0024] Example 1:

[0025] Please refer to Figure 1-Figure 5An embodiment of the present invention provides an automatic feeding wine packaging box assembly unit, which includes: a support component 100 and a control component 200, a grabbing component 300, and a forming component 400, all of which are connected to the support component 100. The grabbing component 300 and the forming component 400 are both data-connected to the control component 200, and the grabbing component 300 and the forming component 400 are data-connected. The grabbing component 300 is used to grab a material block and connect it to the forming component 400. The forming component 400 is used to extrude the material block into shape and assemble it in a packaging box; wherein, the grabbing component 300 includes at least a working material bin 301, and the working material bin 301 is magnetically connected to the forming component 400.

[0026] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, a support component 100, a control component 200, a grabbing component 300, and a forming component 400 are provided. The support component 100 realizes the connection of the entire control component 200, the grabbing component 300, and the forming component 400, and supports and limits the entire device; the grabbing component 300 is used to grab and move the material block, and a working silo 301 is specifically provided. The entire assembly unit can be provided with different numbers of working silos 301 according to needs. Each working silo 301 can be loaded with multiple material blocks, and the material block is a blank, and its shape can be round or square. Then, a single grabbing operation can complete the assembly of multiple wine packaging box liner blocks, thereby improving the assembly efficiency of the entire wine packaging box; The molding component 400 is used to receive the working material bin 301. After being connected to the working material bin 301, the material block is extruded and molded, that is, an inner lining block is formed, and then the extruded inner lining block is assembled into the interior of the wine packaging box; the control component 200 is used to realize the control of the grabbing component 300 and the molding component 400, to ensure that the grabbing component 300 can accurately grab the working material bin 301 and transport it to the designated position, to ensure that the molding component 400 can be accurately connected to the grabbing component 300, that is, connected to the working material bin 301, and quickly align the working material bin 301 with the packaging box. Then, in the next process, its equipment grabs the packaging box and moves it closer to the side of the working material bin 301, and then controls the working material bin 301 to push the molded inner lining block into the packaging box.

[0027] In the prior art, workers pick up the material block, align it with the opening of the packaging box, and then place it at the bottom of the packaging box. This series of actions involves extending, grasping, positioning and placing the arms. Each action link takes time, and there are connection pauses during continuous operations, which makes the entire process time-consuming and labor-intensive, with poor continuity, and ultimately leads to low production efficiency. The assembly unit provided in this embodiment can realize automatic material replenishment while reducing the amount of manual participation and the proportion of manual control, saving time and effort. In addition, the entire assembly process is highly consistent, accurate and fast, solving the problem in the prior art of manually placing the lining inside the wine packaging box, with poor operation accuracy and speed, resulting in a long production process and low efficiency.

[0028] Example 2:

[0029] Please refer to Figure 1-Figure 5 Based on the first embodiment, a wine packaging box assembly unit capable of automatic feeding is provided, specifically: a working material bin 301 comprises at least a fixing frame 302, the fixing frame 302 has a connecting groove 303, a material block is movably connected in the connecting groove 303, and both ends of the fixing frame 302 are connected to magnetic connecting blocks 304. Figure 4 As shown, a fixed frame 302 has multiple connecting slots 303, which enable the assembly of multiple lining blocks after grasping a fixed frame 302. Magnetic connecting blocks 304 at both ends of the fixed frame 302 enable magnetic connection between the fixed frame 302 and the external structure, enabling rapid connection and separation. This embodiment can support the switching of material bins of different specifications within 30 seconds. Specifically, the fixed frame 302 includes at least two parallel and spaced-apart limiting plates 305, with multiple partition plates 306 disposed between the limiting plates 305. The multiple partition plates 306 are spaced apart, forming connecting slots 303 between adjacent two partition plates 306. Material blocks are inserted into the connecting slots 303.

[0030] In some embodiments, the grasping assembly 300 also includes a data-connected grasping arm 307 and a flip arm 308. The grasping arm 307 and the flip arm 308 are both movably connected to the support assembly 100. The flip arm 308 is magnetically connected to the magnetic connection block 304. The grasping arm 307 is configured with an execution module and a computing module that are both data-connected to the control assembly 200. The flip arm 308 is configured with a driving module and a collaborative computing module that are data-connected to the control assembly 200.

[0031] It should be noted that if Figure 2As shown, a flip head 309 is connected to the flip arm 308, and the end connection of the magnetic connection block 304 and the flip head 309 has a plurality of magnetic patches. In detail, the grabbing arm 307 is provided to realize one-time grabbing of the fixed frame 302. When the fixed frame 302 is grabbed, it is in an inclined state, that is, the axis of the fixed frame 302 intersects with the axis of the grabbing arm 307. After the fixed frame 302 is grabbed, the grabbing arm 307 starts to rotate, and then the flip arm 308 rotates toward the grabbing arm 307. In this process, the execution module, the calculation module, the drive module, and the collaborative calculation module all transmit their working data to the control module. The control component 200 interacts with the data in the grabbing arm 307 and the flipping arm 308 through the control component 200. After receiving the interactive data, the computing module calculates the running speed and the stopping position and sends the data to the execution module. The execution module controls the grabbing arm 307 to move according to its instructions. The collaborative computing module calculates the rotation angle and the stopping position according to the interactive data and sends the data to the driving module. The driving module controls the flipping arm 308 to move according to its instructions. After the flipping arm 308 moves to the specified position, the flipping head 309 is magnetically connected to a magnetic connecting block 304 on the fixed frame 302.

[0032] In some embodiments, the forming assembly 400 includes at least a driving arm 401, a switching arm 402, and a former 403. The driving arm 401 is fixedly connected to the support assembly 100, the switching arm 402 is rotatably connected to the top of the driving arm 401, and the former 403 is rotatably connected to the end of the switching arm 402. The driving arm 401 is equipped with a regulating module that is data-connected to the control assembly 200, and the switching arm 402 is equipped with a matching module that is data-connected to the driving arm 401. Both the driving arm 401 and the switching arm 402 are telescopic arms.

[0033] It should be noted that if Figure 3 As shown, the drive arm 401 is used to adjust the height of the former 403, and the switching arm 402 is used to adjust the direction and thus switch the shape of the extruded material block. The shape of the material block is extruded through the telescopic action of the former 403, so that the material block is formed into an inner liner. The formed inner liner is then aligned with the packaging box and placed into the packaging box. The specific placement process is the content of the next step. Furthermore, the drive module sends the execution data of the flip arm 308 to the control component 200 in real time. The control component 200 analyzes and calculates and sends the work instructions to the adjustment module. The adjustment module adjusts to the specified height according to the instructions. The adjustment module sends the execution data of the drive arm 401 to the control component 200 in real time. The control component 200 analyzes and calculates and sends the work instructions to the coordination module. The coordination module switches the forming extrusion head according to the instructions. This embodiment optimizes the feeding path through the multi-manipulator collaboration algorithm between the drive arm 401, the switching arm 402, the grabbing arm 307, and the flip arm 308, effectively reducing the idle travel time by more than 30%.

[0034] In some embodiments, the former 403 comprises at least a rotating block 404, a fixed block 405, and a square working head 406 and a circular working head 407 connected to the fixed block 405 at intervals. The two sides of the rotating block 404 are respectively connected to the switching arm 402 and the fixed block 405. The forming device of the prior art can only realize the manufacture of one shape and cannot complete the manufacture of multiple shapes. At the same time, it is impossible to adjust the shape of the forming in real time according to the demand, such as Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, the working heads of different shapes, namely the square working head 406 and the circular working head 407, are set by the fixed block 405, and the extrusion heads of other shapes can also be connected. The square working head 406 and the circular working head 407 are switched by the rotating block 404 to drive the fixed block 405 to rotate. No manual adjustment is required, and the flexibility is strong. It should be noted that the rotating block 404 and the switching arm 402 are both controlled by the control component 200. The switching arm 402 realizes primary switching, and the rotating block 404 adjusts the switching position to ensure that the switched working head can be accurately and quickly connected to the fixed frame 302, and can also accurately and quickly push the lining block into the packaging box.

[0035] In some embodiments, a square extrusion rod 408 is movably connected to the square working head 406, and a circular extrusion rod 409 is movably connected to the circular working head 407. The ends of the square extrusion rod 408 and the circular extrusion rod 409 are both connected to pressure sensors, and the end of the flip arm 308 is connected to a material detector. The square groove is extruded by the provided square extrusion rod 408, and the circular groove is extruded by the provided circular extrusion rod 409. The extrusion shape can be controlled by the provided pressure sensor. Specifically, a material detector is provided to detect the thickness of the material block inserted in the fixed frame 302, generate thickness data of the material block and transmit it to the control component 200. The control component 200 adjusts the pressurization parameters according to the thickness size, and generates a specified extrusion instruction for the extrusion parameter, and transmits the instruction to the square work head 406 or the circular work head 407. The square work head 406 or the circular work head 407 controls the extension length of the square extrusion rod 408 or the circular extrusion rod 409 according to the instruction, thereby adjusting the extrusion shape and extrusion depth. The material block is extruded with the corresponding parameters, so that more products can be processed and assembled. Preferably, an RFID chip is configured in the connecting groove 303, and can also be combined with the material detector to realize automatic identification of material type and matching production parameters. The production parameters will be sent to the control component 200. It should be noted that an opening is provided on the magnetic connection block 304 for the square extrusion rod 408 and the round extrusion rod 409 to pass through. Multiple forming components 400 are set on an assembly unit. During the extrusion process, the subsequent material blocks will be extruded at the same time as the outer material blocks are extruded. After the lowest end material block is sent into the packaging box, it can be extruded for the second time by another extrusion rod to ensure the standardization of its shape.

[0036] In some embodiments, the control assembly 200 includes at least a central controller, which is equipped with an AI prediction module and a production line status monitoring module. The AI prediction module and production line status monitoring module configured in this embodiment can effectively monitor the motor load throughout the refilling process. Specifically, they use a fuzzy PID algorithm to dynamically adjust the drive power, thereby effectively reducing energy consumption by 15%. Preferably, the drive arm 401, switching arm 402, grabbing arm 307, and flipping arm 308 are each equipped with a rotation sensor connected to the AI prediction module. This module can provide early warning of wear on the robotic arm joints and implement preventive maintenance. Optionally, the AI prediction module can utilize an LSTM prediction model. The central controller is also equipped with a dynamic path planning module, which uses a dynamic path planning algorithm to coordinate with the execution module, calculation module, drive module, collaborative calculation module, adjustment module, and coordination module to optimize the refilling path. The central controller provided in this embodiment can achieve a refilling response time of ≤3 seconds, a material recognition accuracy of 97.9%, a fourfold increase in multi-specification switching efficiency, and a 13%-19% reduction in energy consumption.

[0037] In some embodiments, an electrostatic precipitator 500 is disposed between the grabbing arm 307 and the flipping arm 308. The electrostatic precipitator 500 includes a support rod 501 and an electrostatic precipitator cartridge 502 connected to the top of the support rod 501. The lengths of the grabbing arm 307 and the flipping arm 308 are both greater than the height of the support rod 501. The support rod 501 supports the electrostatic precipitator cartridge 502, which is data-connected to a central controller. When the grabbing arm 307 transfers the fixed frame 302 to the flipping arm 308, the fixed frame 302 passes over the top of the electrostatic precipitator cartridge 502. At this point, the central controller controls the electrostatic precipitator cartridge 502 to start operating, thereby completing the dust removal work on the material blocks inside the fixed frame 302.

[0038] It can be understood that the support assembly 100 at least includes a support base body and support feet.
