[0002] In the process of manufacturing electric energy meters, sorting and loading carrier modules onto trays is an important step, and the market demand is huge. In the past, sorting and loading carrier modules mainly relied on manual scanning operations, which had many drawbacks. On the one hand, the output efficiency of manual operations was low, and the per capita output was low, making it difficult to meet the growing demand for batch production of electric energy meters. On the other hand, manual operations were prone to errors, resulting in the inability to guarantee the accuracy of sorting and loading, affecting the production quality.
[0003] In the prior art, although there are solutions that achieve material taking through automatic scanning and module grasping, and use a conveyor belt to convey trays for tray loading and discharging, the problems of efficiency and accuracy still cannot be effectively solved, and the requirements of large-scale production cannot be met.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0022] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0023] As Figures 1-5 shown, a fully automatic sorting device for power meter carrier modules includes a carrier module conveyor line 1, a carrier module barcode scanning device 2, a carrier module flipping mechanism 3, a carrier module material taking module 4, and a carrier module tray belt 5. It is characterized in that: the carrier module conveyor line 1 is used to convey carrier modules, conveying four pieces each time to the carrier module barcode scanning device 2 for barcode scanning, and after the barcode scanning is completed, conveying them to the carrier module flipping mechanism 3; the carrier module barcode scanning device 2 is arranged on the carrier module conveyor line 1 and is used to perform barcode scanning operations on four carrier modules conveyed at one time; the carrier module flipping mechanism 3 is used to feed four barcode-scanned carrier modules at a time, and after reaching the position, the rotating cylinder rotates 90° to flip the carrier modules; the carrier module material taking module 4 is used to grab the four flipped carrier modules and place them into the trays of the carrier module tray belt 5 in a specified order; the carrier module tray belt 5 is used to convey trays, and when the trays are full, automatically send out the full trays and feed in empty trays.
[0024] The carrier module material taking module 4 includes a three-axis motion module 6 and a carrier module material taking gripper 7. It also includes a module support assembly 8 as a support foot. The carrier module flipping mechanism 3 includes a rotating cylinder 9 and a carrier module positioning mechanism 10. The carrier module barcode scanning device 2 is a barcode scanner.
[0025] The working principle is as follows:
[0026] Action principle of the carrier module conveyor line: The carrier modules are conveyed through the carrier module conveyor line, four pieces are conveyed at a time, and they reach the carrier module positioning mechanism to prepare for subsequent barcode scanning operations. The speed and conveying rhythm of the conveyor line are carefully designed to ensure close cooperation with subsequent processes and guarantee production efficiency.
[0027] Action principle of the carrier module barcode scanning device: When the carrier modules reach the carrier module positioning mechanism, use the barcode scanner to perform barcode scanning on four carrier modules conveyed at one time. The barcode scanning device has high-precision barcode scanning and recognition capabilities, can quickly and accurately read the carrier module information, and ensure the accuracy and efficiency of barcode scanning.
[0028] Operating principle of the carrier module flipping mechanism: After the carrier module finishes scanning the code, it is sent to the carrier module positioning fixture through the conveyor belt, and 4 pieces can be fed at a time. When the carrier module arrives at the position, the rotary cylinder rotates 90°, driving the carrier module to flip, so as to meet the requirements of subsequent grasping and loading. The design of the flipping mechanism ensures the stability and accuracy of the carrier module flipping.
[0029] Operating principle of the carrier module material taking module: After the carrier module rotates 90° through the flipping mechanism, the three-axis module cooperates with the carrier module material taking gripper to grasp four carrier modules. The three-axis module can accurately control the position and movement trajectory of the material taking gripper, and accurately place the grasped carrier modules into the tray in accordance with the specified order to achieve precise sorting.
[0030] Operating principle of the carrier module tray conveyor belt: After the tray is conveyed to the position through the conveyor belt, the carrier module material taking module sequentially places the four grasped carrier modules into the tray in accordance with the specified order. When the tray is full, the carrier module tray conveyor belt automatically sends out the full tray and timely sends in an empty tray to realize the continuous supply of materials and the cycle of the loading operation.
[0031] For those skilled in the art, it is obvious that the present invention is not limited to the details of the above exemplary embodiments, and without departing from the spirit or basic characteristics of the present invention, the present invention can be implemented in other specific forms. Therefore, from any point of view, the embodiments should be regarded as exemplary and non-limiting. The scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the above description. Therefore, it is intended to embrace all changes falling within the meaning and scope of the equivalent elements of the claims in the present invention.
[0032] In addition, it should be understood that although this specification is described according to the embodiments, not every embodiment only contains an independent technical solution. This narrative way of the specification is only for clarity. Those skilled in the art should regard the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment have been appropriately combined to form other embodiments that are easy for those skilled in the art to understand.
