Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a colored pen box loading device. Background Art

[0002] There are many types of colors for pens such as marker pens and colored pencils. In the past, different colored pens were manually loaded into packaging boxes or packing cases. A grid plate was arranged in the packaging box, and a colored pen was placed in each grid hole correspondingly, so that the colored pens were placed vertically in an orderly and neat manner. As the colors of colored pens become more and more abundant, manual packaging not only has high costs but also has a high error rate.

[0003] Among them, the patent with the publication number CN211281689U and the invention title of "Marker Pen Box Loading and Packaging System" discloses the automatic loading of marker pens. This kind of box loading and packaging system uses a small cart to send empty pen boxes to each pen dropping station until the pen slots in the pen box are filled with marker pens. However, this box loading and packaging system has the following problems: 1. The structure and layout design are unreasonable. The pen dropping hoppers are arranged along the connection line of multiple pen dropping stations, and the tracks extend along the connection line of multiple pen droppings, resulting in an overly long equipment length. Also, due to the length limitation, the number of pen dropping hoppers is limited, which is not suitable for loading colored pens with too many colors, unless processed by multiple sets of equipment; 2. The structure of the blanking component is cumbersome and prone to problems such as material blockage; 3. Due to processing problems, the pen slots of the colored pen boxes are not standard and deformed. The pens in the pen dropping slide bars are easily blocked by the grid plates and cannot completely enter the pen slots. Moreover, the head and tail sizes of some colored pens are different, and the smaller end needs to be inserted into the pen slot first. If the head and tail of the colored pen are reversed, the colored pen will surely be blocked. In this case, if the small cart continues to move, it will cause the colored pen to break and the equipment to be damaged, so there are relatively large safety hazards. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of the technical problems existing in the background art, the technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a colored pen box loading device with a reasonable structure design, stable discharging and box loading.

[0005] To solve the above technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions: This kind of colored pen box loading device is characterized in that it includes a sorting and conveying member, which conveys longitudinally. There are several groups of the sorting and conveying members, and a material bin is arranged above each group of sorting and conveying members. The material bin has several unit material cavities; a die box conveying component, which includes a collecting and conveying member, the collecting and conveying member conveys horizontally, and several groups of sorting and conveying members are arranged horizontally relative to the collecting and conveying member; and a die box, which has a die cavity, and a partition is arranged in the die cavity; During collection, the die boxes on the collecting and conveying member pass through the sorting and conveying members in sequence.

[0006] The present invention collects colored pens through multiple sorting and conveying members. The collecting and conveying member collects the colored pens output by each sorting and conveying member with the die box. If a sorting and conveying member is provided with ten unit material cavities, ten-color colored pens are collected. Then, ten sorting and conveying members can collect one hundred colors of colored pens. The number of colored pens that the die box can collect is much more than that collected by the pen box in the background art, and the equipment length is shorter than that of the box-packing system in the background art.

[0007] Preferably, the storage bin includes a baffle, a first support plate and a second support plate. The baffle includes side baffles. The first support plate and the second support plate are inclined and form a blanking cavity that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom. The lower ends of the first support plate and the second support plate form a discharge port. The first support plate moves integrally or reciprocates partially relative to the blanking cavity, and the second support plate moves up and down integrally or partially relative to the blanking cavity. The first support plate reciprocates to push the materials in the blanking cavity, so that the materials move in the blanking cavity. As the materials at the discharge port are discharged one by one, the materials in the blanking cavity gradually move towards the discharge port; when multiple materials are closely arranged side by side in the blanking cavity and stuck between the two side baffles, the materials interact with each other to form a beam with a certain support, blocking the materials above, resulting in no materials being discharged from the discharge port. At this time, the pushing of the first support plate cannot destroy the support formed by the materials, and can only make the same material reciprocate above the support surface. Only by raising the second support plate to destroy the support formed by the materials can the materials above fall into the discharge port and be discharged smoothly, thus solving the problem of material blockage in the blanking cavity.

[0008] Preferably, the baffle further includes a first baffle and a second baffle. The first baffle and the second baffle are arranged in parallel. There are several side baffles. The several side baffles are arranged at intervals between the first baffle and the second baffle, and the side baffles are perpendicular to the first baffle and the second baffle. The side baffles, the first baffle and the second baffle form several unit material cavities. The side baffles and the first baffle are fixedly installed on the frame, and the second baffle can move horizontally relative to the first baffle. The second baffle moves horizontally relative to the first baffle, changes the width of the material cavity according to the length of the material, makes the width of the material cavity match the length of the material, and keeps the material horizontally placed in the material cavity to avoid tilting and left-right movement, improving the stability of material sorting and blanking; and as long as the second baffle is moved, several material cavities can be adjusted synchronously, with fast adjustment speed, high efficiency and good effect.

[0009] Preferably, a transfer mechanism is provided at the discharge station of the sorting and conveying member. The transfer mechanism includes a flipping member, which is arranged on one side of the sorting and conveying member. The flipping member has a flipping cavity. The flipping member is rotatably arranged on the frame through a rotating shaft and has a first state of lying flat and a second state of standing upright; A pusher member that moves transversely relative to the flipping cavity and pushes the material at the discharging station into the flipping cavity of the flipping member in the first state; And a material taking member that sends the material in the flipping cavity in the second state to the mold box at the corresponding position.

[0010] The sorting and conveying member sends a group of sorted materials to the discharging station. The pusher member pushes the horizontally placed materials into the flipping cavity. After the flipping cavity flips, the materials are in a vertical state. Then the material taking member inserts the vertically placed materials into the mold box, and then the collection and conveying member collects the mold boxes one by one.

[0011] Preferably, the flipping member includes a supporting plate and a pressing plate, and the pressing plate moves relative to the supporting plate; the material taking member is a clamping member, and the clamping member includes a first clamping plate and a second clamping plate arranged longitudinally. The clamping member moves up and down and horizontally longitudinally. A group of materials are arranged horizontally. If the clamping plates of the clamping member are long enough, a group of materials can be clamped at one time and sent to the mold box at one time. Compared with the suction nozzle for sucking materials, the clamping plates not only clamp firmly and convey materials stably, but also have low cost and simpler structure.

[0012] Preferably, the sorting and conveying member includes a supporting plate and a transmission chain. Push rods are longitudinally spaced on the transmission chain, and sliding grooves for the push rods to move are formed on the supporting plate; a flexible retaining strip is arranged above the supporting plate. The retaining strip is arranged between adjacent discharge ports of the bin, and the retaining strip gradually approaches the supporting plate along the conveying direction. Pushing materials by the push rods is more stable. The flexible retaining strip has appropriate resistance to the materials, preventing the materials on the supporting plate from rolling to the next discharge port and affecting the discharging of this discharge port, so as to ensure stable discharging and material conveying.

[0013] Preferably, the lower end of the mold cavity is a mold box discharge port, and the mold box discharge port is provided with a movable bottom plate. The partition in the mold cavity divides the mold cavity into several unit cavities, and one unit cavity is for the materials sent by a group of sorting and conveying members. The mold box collects the materials. One unit cavity corresponds to a group of materials. Such a setting makes the materials in each group not affect each other, which is more conducive to the materials entering the mold box. The mold box does not deform relative to the packaging box cavity, and the specifications and dimensions are accurate, so the problem that the materials cannot be inserted will not occur; after the collection is completed, the movable bottom plate is opened, and the materials are uniformly discharged from the mold box discharge port.

[0014] Preferably, the mold box conveying component is provided with a box loading station, and the box loading station is provided with a driving component for driving the movable bottom plate to open. The driving component includes a jack that moves up and down. The jack is arranged on the machine frame and above the movable bottom plate. The movable bottom plate is swingably arranged on the mold box, and a spring for closing it is installed on the movable bottom plate. The movable bottom plate extends outside the material box and is in pressing fit with the jack. At the box loading station, the jack presses the movable bottom plate, overcoming the elastic force of the spring to open the movable bottom plate, and then the material in the mold box is discharged from the mold box discharge port. When the jack rises, the elastic force of the spring makes the movable bottom plate swing in the reverse direction to close the mold box discharge port.

[0015] Preferably, the mold box conveying component further includes an output conveying member. The output conveying member is arranged in parallel with the collection conveying member, and they are vertically offset. A plurality of output stations are provided on the conveying path of the output conveying member. An output notch is provided at the output station, and a box loading conveying member is provided at the output notch. The box loading conveying member moves up and down relative to the output conveying member. The box loading station is arranged on the conveying path of the box loading conveying member. After the material is boxed, auxiliary box loading or quality inspection may be required according to the needs. To facilitate operation and improve production efficiency, an output conveying member is added. The collection conveying member sends the completed collected mold boxes to the output conveying member, and then through the connection between the output conveying member and a plurality of box loading conveying members, the mold boxes can enter each box loading conveying member for box loading, maintenance and other operations. After the mold box is discharged, it returns to the output conveying member again and is sent away.

[0016] Preferably, both ends of the output conveying member and the collection conveying member are respectively a mold box output station and a mold box input station, and mold box transfer components are provided at both stations. The mold box transfer component includes a box taking component, which includes a first support rod and a second support rod. The mold box is provided with a mounting seat, and a first support seat and a second support seat are arranged on the mounting seat. A first through hole for the first support rod to pass through is provided on the first support seat, and a second through hole for the second support rod to pass through is provided on the second support seat. a lifting component, which includes a lifting seat. The first support rod and the second support rod move horizontally on the lifting seat. and a translation component, which includes a longitudinal beam arranged longitudinally and a moving seat that moves longitudinally on the longitudinal beam. The lifting seat moves up and down on the moving seat.

[0017] The mold box that has completed collection enters the mold box output station. The first support rod and the second support rod are inserted into the first through hole and the second through hole. The mold box rises and falls with the lifting seat, and then is sent above the output conveyor by the moving seat. Finally, the lifting seat moves down to send the mold box onto the conveyor, and the first support rod and the second support rod withdraw. The mold box that has completed box loading is sent to the mold box input station by the output conveyor. Similarly, the mold box is picked up by the box picking component, and the empty mold box is sent onto the collection conveyor and enters material collection again, and so on in a cycle.

[0028] The following describes the embodiments of the present invention, the relevant details and working principles of the embodiments with reference to the drawings. Refer to the attached Figure 1 , the X-axis is horizontal, the Y-axis is longitudinal, and the Z-axis is the vertical direction.

[0029] This kind of colored pen packing equipment includes a sorting and conveying component 1 and a die box conveying component. The sorting and conveying component conveys longitudinally. There are several groups of the sorting and conveying components 1. Above each group of sorting and conveying components, there is a material bin 4. The material bin has several unit material cavities 12. The die box conveying component includes a collecting and conveying component 2. The collecting and conveying component conveys horizontally. Several groups of sorting and conveying components 1 are arranged horizontally relative to the collecting and conveying component 2. During collection, the die boxes 9 on the collecting and conveying component pass through the sorting and conveying components 1 in sequence. In the figure, there are only two groups of sorting and conveying components 1. Users can increase the number of sorting and conveying components according to their needs. Each group of sorting and conveying components is divided into a front conveying component and a rear conveying component that are connected to each other. There are six unit material cavities 12 above the rear conveying component, and there is a complementary color material cavity 11 above the front conveying component. When the unit material cavities above the front conveying component are not enough, the complementary color material cavity can be used as a supplement. In this way, there are a total of eight unit material cavities. One kind of colored pen is placed in each unit material cavity. The materials in the unit material cavity 12 enter the sorting and conveying component 1, and the sorting and conveying component conveys and collects pens of different colors. In this way, one group of sorting and conveying components can collect eight colors of colored pens. The collecting and conveying component drives the die box 9 to pass through the first group of sorting and conveying components, the second group of sorting and conveying components... in sequence to collect the colored pens output by each group of sorting and conveying components. If there are six groups of sorting and conveying components 1, 48-color colored pens can be collected. The more unit material cavities are set in each group of sorting and conveying components, the more colored pens can be collected. Similarly, the more the number of sorting and conveying components is set, the more colored pens can be collected in total by the die box. The number of unit material cavities set in each group of sorting and conveying components is the same and their lengths are consistent. Then, the longitudinal lengths of the equipment with two groups of sorting and conveying components and six groups of sorting and conveying components are the same. Just to be able to connect with more sorting and conveying components, only the length of the collecting and conveying component needs to be increased. Compared with the layout in the background technology, the present invention is convenient to install, and the equipment has a short length, a small volume, and is more conducive to the transportation and placement of the equipment.

[0030] The silo 4 includes a baffle, a first support plate 35 and a second support plate 24. The baffle includes a side baffle 28. The first support plate and the second support plate are inclined and form a material falling cavity 46 that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom. The material falling cavity is the lower end of the unit material cavity 12. The lower ends of the first support plate 35 and the second support plate 34 form a discharge port. The first support plate moves integrally or reciprocates partially relative to the material falling cavity. The second support plate moves up and down integrally or partially relative to the material falling cavity. In the figure, the area of the first support plate is larger, and it adopts partial reciprocating movement. The first support plate 35 includes a fixed plate 36 and a moving plate 37. The moving plate reciprocates relative to the material falling cavity 46. The area of the second support plate 34 is smaller and it adopts integral lifting. Such a design is more reasonable, and the driving member 47 for driving the moving plate and the second support plate can be arranged below the material falling cavity without occupying other positions of the equipment, thereby minimizing the volume of the equipment as much as possible. The first support plate reciprocates to push the materials in the material falling cavity, and the materials are the colored pens 10, so that the colored pens move in the material falling cavity. As the colored pens at the discharge port are discharged one by one, the colored pens in the material falling cavity gradually move towards the discharge port; when multiple colored pens are arranged closely side by side in the material falling cavity and are stuck between the two side baffles 28, the colored pens interact with each other to form a supporting state. For example, the outer shell of a marker pen has four sides, and the sides of adjacent marker pens are pressed tightly together until the marker pens at both ends are respectively pressed tightly against the two side baffles, so that they are longitudinally stuck in the material falling cavity. At this time, the movement of the first support plate cannot destroy the supporting structure formed by the pens, then this supporting structure will block the colored pens above, resulting in no colored pens being discharged from the discharge port, that is, material blockage occurs. At this time, the pushing of the first support plate 35 cannot destroy the support formed by the colored pens, and the reciprocating movement of the first support plate repeatedly acts on the same colored pens, resulting in the reciprocating movement of this part of the colored pens and causing damage to the surface friction of the colored pens; in the present invention, the second support plate 34 rises to destroy the supporting structure formed by the colored pens, so that the materials above can fall smoothly and then be discharged from the discharge port, effectively solving the problem of material blockage in the material falling cavity.

[0031] To ensure stable discharging, the material bin 4 further includes a discharging channel 45 communicating with the discharging port, a discharging plate 42 and a material blocking plate 43 that can enter and exit the discharging channel. The material blocking plate is located above the discharging plate, and the distance between the two is matched with the thickness of the colored pen 10. In this way, only one colored pen can be accommodated between the material blocking plate 43 and the discharging plate 42, and only one colored pen is discharged each time. The colored pens in the blanking cavity 46 enter the discharging channel 45 one by one through the discharging port. When the discharging plate extends, the discharging channel is closed; during discharging, the material blocking plate 43 enters the discharging channel to block the materials above. At this time, the discharging plate withdraws from the discharging channel 45, and the colored pen 10 between the two drops onto the sorting and conveying member. Then, the discharging plate extends again to block the materials, and the sorting and conveying member conveys the colored pen forward by one position. Each time passing through a unit material cavity, one color is collected until it enters the discharging station 15. A pen jamming detection sensor 44 is arranged on the discharging channel. The pen jamming detection sensor and the driving member 47 for driving the second support plate to lift are both connected to the controller. When there is a material blockage and the materials in the discharging channel decrease, and the pen jamming detection sensor 44 does not detect the materials, a signal will be sent to the controller, and the controller will send an instruction to the driving member 47. The driving member drives the second support plate 34 to lift to solve the material blockage problem, so that the discharging channel returns to normal, and the second support member resets and stops lifting. A plurality of vertically arranged notches 32 are provided at the connection end of the side baffle 28 and the second support plate. The upper end of the second support plate extends with a connection block 33 corresponding to the notch. When the second support plate 34 lifts, the connection block lifts in the notch. In this way, the connection between the second support plate and the side baffle will not affect the material cavity or the material discharging, and the lifting of the second support plate will not cause a notch in the material cavity, keeping the integrity of the material cavity.

[0032] The lengths of the colored pens 10 are different. If the length and width of the unit material chamber are too wide, the colored pens will move and tilt in the material chamber, affecting the stability of the sorting and feeding of the colored pens and increasing the probability of material blockage. The baffle further includes a first baffle 27 and a second baffle 29. The first baffle and the second baffle are arranged in parallel. A plurality of side baffles 28 are provided. The plurality of side baffles are arranged at intervals between the first baffle and the second baffle, and the side baffles are perpendicular to the first baffle and the second baffle. The side baffles and the first baffle form a plurality of unit material chambers 12. The side baffles and the first baffle are fixedly installed on the frame. The second baffle can move horizontally relative to the first baffle. The colored pens 10 are placed horizontally in the unit material chambers. The width of the material chamber is adjusted according to the length of the pen so that the width of the material chamber matches the length of the pen. In this way, the pens placed in the material chamber can be kept horizontally placed transversely, that is, in a horizontal state, avoiding the pens from tilting or moving transversely in the material chamber, eliminating the influence of improper placement of the pens on the discharging, and thus improving the stability of sorting and feeding. When the pen is longer, the second baffle 29 is moved away from the first baffle 27 to widen the width of the material chamber. When the pen is shorter, the second baffle is moved closer to the first baffle, so that the width of the material chamber becomes narrower. During adjustment, as long as the second baffle is moved, multiple material chambers can be adjusted synchronously, with fast adjustment speed, high efficiency and good effect. A driving member for driving the second baffle to move horizontally is provided on the frame. The driving member includes an adjusting screw 40 and a nut. The adjusting screw has high adjustment accuracy and is convenient to use. In the figure, the adjusting screw is installed on the second baffle 29, and the nut is installed on the frame. By rotating the adjusting screw, the adjusting screw moves relative to the nut, and then drives the second baffle to move relative to the first baffle. In order to make the second baffle move stably, a guiding assembly for the movement of the second baffle is provided on the frame. The guiding assembly includes a guide post 39 and a guide sleeve 38 sleeved outside the guide post. The guide sleeve is installed on the frame, and the guide post is installed on the second baffle. When the second baffle moves horizontally, the guide post moves in the guiding hole of the guide sleeve. The more the number of material chambers, the larger the area and heavier the weight of the second baffle, and the second baffle needs to move as a whole. To improve the stability and safety of installation and movement, a plurality of support rods 30 are provided on the second baffle. Installation holes 31 for the support rods to pass through are provided on the side baffles and the first baffle. The second baffle 29 is movably arranged on the side baffles and the first baffle through a plurality of support rods, which play a good supporting role for the second baffle. And when the second baffle moves, the support rods move in the installation holes and will not affect the adjustment of the material chamber.The second baffle 29 includes a bracket 41 and a transparent panel. It is preferred to divide the transparent panel into several unit panels. The unit panels are correspondingly arranged with the unit material chambers. This is beneficial for installation and can clearly observe the material state in the material chamber. One unit panel is correspondingly arranged for one material chamber. The unit panel is installed on the bracket 41. The adjusting screw is installed on the bracket, and the nut is installed on the first baffle. The transparent panel is spliced by unit panels, which not only reduces the cost and the weight of the panel, but also the panel is not easily deformed, and the stability of the material chamber is better. The blanking situation in the material chamber can be observed through the transparent panel, which is beneficial for the staff to discover and solve problems in time. The setting of the bracket increases the strength of the second baffle, which is more beneficial for installation and movement.

[0033] The sorting and conveying member 1 and the die box conveying member 2 can adopt common conveyor belts, double-speed chains, etc. In this embodiment, the sorting and conveying member 1 includes a pallet 18 and a transmission chain 66. Push rods 17 are longitudinally arranged at intervals on the transmission chain. A chute 67 for the push rod to move is opened on the pallet. The conveying cavity between adjacent push rods is used to accommodate a group of materials. In the figure, there are four chutes 67, and four groups of push rods 17 are correspondingly arranged, so the pushing is more stable. A flexible retaining strip 19 is arranged above the pallet 18. The retaining strip is arranged between adjacent discharge ports of the storage bin, and the retaining strip gradually approaches the pallet 18 along the conveying direction. The flexible retaining strip has an appropriate resistance to the material. If the material rolls to the outlet of the next material chamber, it will affect the discharging of this material chamber. That is to say, during blanking, the material in the conveying cavity is blocked by the flexible retaining strip to prevent the material on the pallet from moving to the lower part of the discharge port of the unit material chamber to block the discharging. After the blanking is completed, the push rod pushes the material in the conveying cavity forward by one position. At this time, the material in this conveying cavity is blocked by the previous retaining strip.

[0034] A transfer mechanism is provided at the discharging station 15 of the sorting and conveying member. The transfer mechanism includes a flipping member 16, a pusher 13 and a material taking member 14. The flipping member is arranged on one side of the sorting and conveying member 1. The flipping member has a flipping cavity. The flipping member is rotatably arranged on the frame through a rotating shaft 21 and has a first state of lying flat and a second state of standing upright. A motor or a cylinder can be used to drive the rotation of the rotating shaft. In the figure, the flipping member includes a supporting plate 21 and a pressing plate 25. The pressing plate moves relative to the supporting plate 20. A vertically arranged guide rail 22 is provided on the frame. A sliding seat 24 is arranged on the guide rail. The sliding seat is hinged to one end of a connecting rod 23. The other end of the connecting rod is hinged to the supporting plate 20. The connecting rod is connected to a cylinder 26. When the cylinder extends, it pushes the supporting plate to rotate around the rotating shaft 21, and the connecting rod 23 moves along the guide rail, so that the flipping cavity is in the first state of lying flat. When the cylinder retracts, it pulls the supporting plate to rotate around the rotating shaft, so that the flipping cavity is in the second state of standing upright. The pusher 13 moves laterally relative to the flipping cavity and pushes the material at the discharging station 15 into the flipping cavity of the flipping member in the first state. At this time, the pressing plate 25 moves towards the supporting plate to fix the material. The material taking member 14 sends the material in the flipping cavity in the second state to the mold box 9 at the corresponding position, that is, into the mold box on the collecting and conveying member 2. It is preferable that the material taking member 14 adopts a clamping member. The clamping member includes a first clamping plate and a second clamping plate arranged longitudinally. The clamping member moves up and down and horizontally longitudinally. A group of materials are arranged longitudinally. If the clamping plates of the clamping member are long enough, a group of materials can be clamped at one time and sent into the mold box at one time. Compared with the suction nozzle for sucking materials, the clamping plates not only clamp firmly and convey materials stably, but also have low cost. The sorting and conveying member 1 sends a sorted group of materials to the discharging station 15. The pusher 13 pushes the horizontally placed materials into the flipping cavity. The pressing plate and the supporting plate are pressed together to fix the materials. After the flipping cavity is flipped, the materials are in a vertical state. Then the clamping member 14 clamps the materials in the vertical state. After the pressing plate moves away from the supporting plate, the materials are inserted into the mold box 9 through lifting and horizontal movement. The collecting and conveying member 2 conveys the mold box horizontally. Every time a group of sorting and conveying members pass by, a group of materials are collected.

[0035] The mold box 9 has a mold cavity, and a partition plate 68 is arranged in the mold cavity. The partition plate divides the mold cavity into several unit cavities 67. One unit cavity is used for the materials sent out by a group of sorting and conveying parts. Such a setting makes the materials in each group not affect each other, which is more conducive to the materials entering the mold box. The mold box 9 does not deform relative to the packaging box cavity, and its specifications and dimensions are accurate, so the problem that the materials cannot be inserted will not occur. The lower end of the mold cavity is the mold box discharge port, and a movable bottom plate 64 is arranged at the mold box discharge port. After the materials are collected, the movable bottom plate is opened, and the materials are uniformly discharged from the mold box discharge port. There are many ways to open the movable bottom plate 64. For example, a driving part is used to directly drive the movable bottom plate to swing or move horizontally. In this case, each mold box needs to be equipped with a driving part, and the equipment cost is relatively high. In order to reduce the cost, the mold box conveying component 2 is provided with a box loading station 60, and the box loading station is provided with a driving component for opening the movable bottom plate. The driving component includes a lifting ejector rod 62. The ejector rod is arranged on the machine frame and above the movable bottom plate 64. The movable bottom plate is swingably arranged on the mold box 9, and a spring for closing it is installed on the movable bottom plate. The movable bottom plate 64 extends outside the material box and is in pressing fit with the ejector rod 62. In this way, it is not necessary to equip each mold box with a driving part, and only a driving component needs to be set at the box loading station. After the mold box 9 finishes collecting, it is sent to the box loading station 60. The ejector rod 62 presses down on the movable bottom plate 64, and the movable bottom plate overcomes the elastic force of the spring and swings downward, and the mold box discharge port is opened, and the materials in the mold box 9 are discharged. After the discharging is completed, the ejector rod 62 rises, and the elastic force of the spring makes the movable bottom plate swing in the reverse direction to close the mold box discharge port. The box loading station is also provided with a material guiding part 63. The material guiding part is provided with a material guiding channel that is wide at the top and narrow at the bottom. The outlet of the material guiding channel matches the packaging box. The material guiding channel can straighten the falling colored pens and make them fall into the packaging box.

[0036] The mold box conveying component further includes an output conveyor 3, which is arranged in parallel with the collecting conveyor 2, and the two are vertically offset. In the figure, the output conveyor 3 is higher than the collecting conveyor 2. There are several output stations 50 on the conveying path of the output conveyor. An output notch 61 is provided at the output station. The output notch is provided with box loading conveyors 54 and 55. The box loading conveyors move up and down relative to the output conveyor 3. The box loading station is arranged on the conveying path of the box loading conveyors. After the materials are boxed, auxiliary box loading or quality inspection may be required according to needs. When the pen slot of the packaging box is deformed, resulting in the colored pen not being able to fully enter the pen slot, manual auxiliary box loading can be carried out at this time; adding the output conveyor 3 can provide enough time and position for operation, and at the same time improve production efficiency. The collecting conveyor 2 sends the completed collected mold boxes to the output conveyor 3, and then connects with several box loading conveyors through the output conveyor, so that the mold boxes 9 can enter each box loading conveyor for box loading, maintenance and other operations. After the mold boxes are discharged, they return to the output conveyor 3 again and are sent away. When the box loading output piece needs to receive the mold box, the box loading conveyors move up and catch the mold box at the output station 50. The box loading conveyors transport the mold box to the box loading station 60. After the mold box leaves the output conveyor, the box loading conveyors move down and reset. At this time, the box loading conveyors will not affect the transportation of the output conveyor; when the box loading conveyors need to send the empty mold boxes 9 back, the box loading conveyors also move up to make the empty mold boxes return to the output station and are sent out by the output conveyor. To better connect the two, a material blocking piece is provided at the output station. The material blocking piece moves up and down relative to the output conveyor 3. When the box loading conveyors receive the material, the material blocking piece first moves up to block the mold box 9, and then moves down after the mold box is taken away by the box loading conveyors. The box loading conveyors adopt a first conveyor belt 54 and a second conveyor belt 55 arranged in parallel. There is a blanking distance between the first conveyor belt and the second conveyor belt. The position of the output notch corresponds to the first conveyor belt and the second conveyor belt, and the width of the output notch matches the width of the first conveyor belt and the second conveyor belt. In this way, the notch is small, the connection between the two is good, and the mold box transportation and conversion are smooth.

[0037] The two ends of the output conveyor 3 and the collection conveyor 2 are respectively the cassette output station 48 and the cassette input station 49. There are cassette transfer components 6 at both stations. The cassette transfer component at the cassette output station sends the cassette on the collection conveyor 2 to the output conveyor 3. After the cassette 9 is filled and returns to the output conveyor 3 and finally reaches the cassette input station 49, the cassette transfer component 6 at the cassette input station sends the cassette back to the collection conveyor 51 to start collecting the colored pens. This cycle is repeated, reducing manual participation, lowering labor costs, and improving work efficiency. The cassette transfer component includes a cassette picking component, a lifting component, and a translation component. The cassette picking component includes a first support rod 55 and a second support rod 56. The cassette 9 is provided with a mounting seat 52, and the mounting seat is provided with a first support seat 53 and a second support seat 54. The first support seat is provided with a first through hole 51 for the first support rod to pass through, and the second support seat is provided with a second through hole for the second support rod to pass through. The lifting component includes a lifting seat 57, and the first support rod and the second support rod move horizontally on the lifting seat. The translation component includes a longitudinally arranged longitudinal beam 59 and a moving seat 58 that moves longitudinally on the longitudinal beam, and the lifting seat moves up and down on the moving seat. When the collected cassette enters the cassette output station, the first support rod 55 and the second support rod 56 are inserted into the first through hole 51 and the second through hole. At this time, the lifting of the lifting seat and the movement of the moving seat will drive the cassette 9 to move until the cassette is sent to the output conveyor. Similarly, at the cassette input station, the cassette is also sent to the collection conveyor by inserting the first support rod and the second support rod. In the figure, the lifting of the lifting seat and the movement of the moving seat both adopt rack and gear transmission. Of course, synchronous belt transmission and lead screw mechanisms can also be used for driving. Similarly, in the present invention, the lifting of the clamping member, the movement of the moving plate, the lifting of the second support plate, the lifting of the ejector rod, etc. can all be driven by cylinders, synchronous belts, etc.

[0038] The working principle of this embodiment will be described below with reference to the drawings. First, each unit material chamber 12 stores colored pens of one color. For example, Figure 1For example, there are two sets of sorting and conveying members 1. When feeding materials, the colored pens in the unit material cavity 12 fall simultaneously onto the corresponding conveying cavities on the pallet 18. Then, the drive chain 66 drives the push rod 17 to move forward, pushing the materials in the conveying cavity forward by one position. For example, the first conveying cavity moves the first pen collected to the position below the second unit material cavity, the second conveying cavity moves the second pen collected to the position below the third unit material cavity, and the sixth conveying cavity pushes the six pens collected onto the rear conveying member. Finally, the six pens enter the discharging station 15. The flipping cavity is in the first flat state. The pusher 13 pushes the pens at the discharging station into the flipping cavity. Then, the pressing plate 25 moves towards the supporting plate 20 to fix the pens. Then, the rotating shaft 20 rotates, and the flipping cavity rotates to the second vertical state. The clamping member 14 moves longitudinally above the flipping cavity and then moves down to clamp the pen 10. The pressing plate moves in the reverse direction to release the pens in the flipping cavity. The clamping member moves up, and the pen leaves the flipping cavity. Then, the clamping member moves longitudinally above the collecting and conveying member 2. At this time, the collecting and conveying member sends the mold box 9 to the position corresponding to the sorting and conveying member 1. The clamping member 14 moves down again to insert the pen into the unit cavity 67 of the mold box. After the mold box collects a set of materials, the clamping member moves up. The collecting and conveying member 2 sends the mold box to the position corresponding to the next set of sorting and conveying members to receive the next set of materials. After completion of collection, the mold box is sent to the mold box output station 48. The first support rod and the second support rod extend out, passing through the first through hole and the second through hole. The lifting seat 57 moves the mold box 9 up. Then, the moving seat 58 moves longitudinally above the output conveying member 3. Finally, the lifting seat moves down to send the mold box onto the conveying and conveying member. When the first support rod and the second support rod retract from the mold box 9 and the output conveying member sends the mold box to the output station 50, the baffle member rises to block the mold box 9. The box loading and conveying member rises and catches the mold box. The box loading and conveying member sends the mold box to the box loading station 60. The ejector rod 62 moves down to press the movable bottom plate 64, and the mold box discharge opening opens. The materials in the unit cavity enter the guide channel, and the guide channel guides them into the packaging box 65 below. The ejector rod 62 moves up to reset, and the movable bottom plate 64 resets under the action of the spring to close the mold box discharge opening. The box loading and conveying member sends the empty mold box onto the output conveying member 3, and the output conveying member sends the empty mold box to the mold box input station 49. The first support rod and the second support rod at the mold box input station extend out to send the empty mold box onto the collecting and conveying member, and the empty mold box starts a new round of material collection.
