[0023] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention clearer and more understandable, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention.

[0024] Embodiment:

[0025] Refer to Figures 1-6 A fully automatic tray transfer and storage shunt system shown in the figure includes a tray loading machine 1, a first intelligent warehouse 2 and a second intelligent warehouse 3. Feeding streamlines 4 are provided between the discharging port of the tray loading machine 1 and the feeding ports of the first intelligent warehouse 2 and the second intelligent warehouse 3. Discharging streamlines 5 are provided at the discharging ports of the first intelligent warehouse 2 and the second intelligent warehouse 3. A lift 6 is provided at the discharging end of the discharging streamline 5. A shunt conveyor line 10 is provided at the discharging end of the lift 6. Blocking components 7 and side pushing components 8 are provided on both the feeding streamline 4 and the discharging streamline 5. The first intelligent warehouse 2 includes a frame 201, a storage bin 202, a loading and unloading manipulator 203, an NG recycling bin 204 and a barcode scanner. The first intelligent warehouse 2 and the second intelligent warehouse 3 have the same structure.

[0026] The first intelligent warehouse 2 and the second intelligent warehouse 3 are provided with feeding ports and discharging ports that are staggeredly arranged, and are connected to the stacked feeding streamline 4 and discharging streamline 5. On the one hand, it can transfer the trays more efficiently, and on the other hand, it can improve the space utilization rate, reduce the floor area, and reduce the impact on the layout of the production line production equipment.

[0027] The transfer flow line 205 is used to transfer the trays that need to be stored or discharged. The NG recovery flow line 9 is used to collect the NG trays after feeding at multiple feeding ports. When the trays are stored, the storage bins 202 are used to store the trays, the loading and unloading manipulator 203 is used to pick and place the trays, the NG recovery box 204 is used to collect the NG products, and the barcode scanner is used to scan the trays. The qualified products and NG products are distinguished through the scanned information. There are specifically multiple storage bins 202, and the multiple storage bins 202 are evenly distributed on both sides of the loading and unloading manipulator 203. On the one hand, it is convenient for the loading and unloading manipulator 203 to place the trays, and on the other hand, more trays can be stored.

[0028] The elevator 6 includes a lifting module 601 and a transfer flow line 602. The lifting module 601 can drive the transfer flow line 602 to perform lifting actions. The blocking component 7 includes a blocking bracket, a blocking cylinder 701, and a baffle 702. When the piston rod of the blocking cylinder 701 extends, the baffle 702 descends to limit and block the conveyance of the trays.

[0029] The side-pushing component 8 includes a side-pushing bracket 801, a rodless cylinder 802, a lifting cylinder 803, and a push plate 804. When the piston rod of the lifting cylinder 803 extends, it drives the baffle 702 to descend, and the rodless cylinder 802 drives the push plate 804 to translate to reverse the trays that need to be conveyed in the reverse direction. A vision inspection module 11 is fixedly connected to the bracket of the discharge flow line 5. The vision inspection module 11 is used to detect whether there are surface defects on the trays. The baffle 702 and the push plate 804 can be V-shaped plates, which can better limit the trays and prevent deviation during blocking and pushing.

[0030] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: When the trays are transferred, the tray loader 1 conveys and discharges the trays, and they are conveyed through the feeding flow line 4 to the feeding ports of the first intelligent warehouse 2 or the second intelligent warehouse 3 and stagnate under the blocking of the blocking component 7. Then, the piston rod of the blocking cylinder 701 retracts, the baffle 702 rises, and the trays are conveyed onto the transfer flow line 602 at the feeding port. After being scanned by the barcode scanner, the loading and unloading manipulator 203 sends the qualified products to the storage bins 202 for storage, and places the defective products on the NG recovery flow line 9 and flows into the NG recovery box 204;

[0031] When the tray needs to be transferred and discharged, the loading and unloading manipulator 203 takes the tray to be used from the corresponding storage bin 202 and places it on the transfer streamline 2 at the discharge port, and then conveys it to the discharge streamline 5 for discharging. During the discharging process, the tray is visually inspected by the vision inspection module 11. During the conveying process of the discharge streamline 5, when commutation or line change is required, the side push assembly 8 is used to push the tray for commutation or line change, and finally it flows into the transfer streamline 602 of the elevator 6. The lifting module 601 drives the transfer streamline 602 to lift and dock with the diversion conveying line 10, so as to realize the diversion conveying of the tray discharge.

For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or integrated; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be directly connected, or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, and it can be the internal communication of two components or the interaction relationship between two components. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific situations.
