Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of buffer glove feeding, and in particular to a buffer glove feeding system and a feeding method thereof. Background Art

[0002] In the glove production industry, due to factors such as quality inspection, order scheduling, and packaging requirements, the finished gloves may not be packaged immediately after being stacked, but may be temporarily stored. Due to the need for dust-proof storage, the storage container for cached gloves is usually designed with a single opening, and the space is relatively closed, so the gloves can only be placed or taken out through the single opening. The cached gloves can be placed in the storage container by a grasping robot. However, when the gloves are taken out and loaded, due to the limitations of the storage container structure, it is not possible to directly use a grasping robot for automated grasping operations, which increases the difficulty of automated glove loading. Currently, it can only rely on manual operation, which leads to an extremely low degree of automation and high labor intensity for workers.

[0003] Furthermore, gloves are neatly stacked in buffer boxes, requiring manual unloading to maintain the integrity of the stacks, further reducing unloading efficiency. Furthermore, due to the numerous manual steps involved, gloves are prone to shifting and scattering during the unloading process. This not only disrupts the neat stacking of gloves but also disrupts the dust-proof storage environment, introducing dust and other impurities, seriously affecting glove quality. This makes it difficult to meet market demand for high-quality products and also hinders the company's production efficiency and cost control. Summary of the Invention

[0105] In addition, the clamping positioning member 404 can be a single splint (a single splint can be inserted into the end of the cache box 2 or the transfer frame 3 or cooperate with the splint of another clamping component to directly clamp the end face of the cache box 2 or the transfer frame 3, etc.) or multiple splints spliced ​​together (such as spliced ​​into a box-shaped structure to cover the end of the cache box 2 or the transfer frame 3, etc.), or it can be a single column structure or a combination of multiple column structures. It can be adjusted accordingly according to the actual structure of the cache box 2 or the transfer frame 3 to play a positioning and clamping role on the cache box 2 or the transfer frame 3.

[0106] Reference Figure 7 The flipping portion includes a flipping drive device 405, which is mounted on the connecting frame 401 and drives the driving shaft 406 to rotate;

[0107] It also includes two driven shafts 407, the fixed ends of the two telescopic devices 402 of the same clamping assembly are fixedly connected to the same driven shaft 407, and the two driven shafts 407 are respectively connected to the driving shaft 406;

[0108] The driven shaft 407 and the driving shaft 406 are rotatably connected to the connecting frame 401 respectively.

Each belt drive system 409 includes two pulleys, one of which is coaxially fixedly connected to the driven shaft 407 and the other coaxially fixed to the driving shaft 406. The two pulleys are driven by a belt. If a belt drive system 409 is used, it is preferably a geared belt drive system.

[0112] The flipping clamping mechanism 4 clamps and fixes both ends of the transfer frame 3 and then flips it over so that the frame opening of the transfer frame 3 faces downward, then clamps and fixes both ends of the cache box 2 so that the cache box 2 and the transfer frame 3 are opposite, and then flips it over again to pour the gloves in the cache box 2 into the transfer frame 3.

[0113] The conveying mechanism 7 includes a support frame 701, on which a conveying device 702 is provided; and the translation mechanism 8 is installed above the support frame 701. The conveying device 702 adopts existing equipment, such as an existing conveyor belt, conveyor plate belt, etc.

[0114] The translation mechanism 8 includes a translation guide rail 801 installed on one side or both sides of the support frame 701. If the translation guide rail 801 is provided on both sides of the support frame 701, then both ends of the connecting frame 401 are respectively slidably connected to the translation guide rail 801. If the translation guide rail 801 is provided on one side of the support frame 701, then one end of the connecting frame 401 is slidably connected to the translation guide rail 801, and a pulley is provided at the bottom of the other end of the connecting frame 401, and a corresponding slide is provided on the support frame 701, and the other end of the connecting frame 401 is slidably connected to the support frame 701.

[0115] It also includes a translation drive mechanism 802 for driving the flip clamping mechanism 4 to move along the translation guide rail 801. Figure 1 and Figure 5In this embodiment, the translation drive mechanism 802 includes a motor-driven belt system. The belt system is located below and parallel to the translation guide rail 801. The connecting frame 401 is fixed to the belt of the belt system through a connecting block. Based on the operation of the motor-driven belt, the connecting frame 401 is driven to move along the translation guide rail 801. In this embodiment, the translation mechanism 8 can drive the flip clamping mechanism 4 to move above or out of the conveying mechanism 7. The height of the telescopic device 402 below the flip clamping mechanism 4 corresponds to the height of the cache box 2 conveyed on the conveying mechanism 7 and the height of the positioning block 303 on the transfer frame 3. The cache boxes 2 can be placed one by one on the conveying device 702 by existing handling robots or manual handling.

[0116] The present application also includes several position sensors, which are used to sense the position information of the cache box 2, the transfer frame 3 and the gloves. The position sensors are connected to a control terminal, which is used to receive the position information sensed by the position sensors, issue control instructions, and control the operation of related electrical devices.

[0117] The position sensor may adopt existing instrument and equipment components, such as photoelectric switches, travel switches, etc., and may be contact type or proximity type, without specific limitation.

[0118] The position sensors of this embodiment can be set at the flip clamping mechanism 4, transfer manipulator 6, conveying mechanism 7, translation mechanism 8 and other positions, mainly to achieve the position sensing of the buffer box 2, transfer frame 3 and gloves. The loading process of this embodiment is as follows:

[0119] The turning clamping mechanism 4 turns the transfer frame 3 over so that the frame opening faces downward;

[0120] The buffer boxes 2 are transported one by one by the conveying mechanism 7, and the translation mechanism 8 moves the flip clamping mechanism 4 to the top of the conveying mechanism 7, so that the buffer boxes 2 are opposite to the transfer frame 3;

[0121] The flipping clamping mechanism 4 clamps and fixes the buffer box 2. After the translation mechanism 8 drives the flipping clamping mechanism 4 to move out from above the conveying mechanism 7, the flipping clamping mechanism 4 performs a flipping action, so that the gloves in the buffer box 2 fall into the transfer frame 3;

[0122] The flipping clamping mechanism 4 moves back to the top of the conveying mechanism 7 again. After releasing the transfer frame 3, the translation mechanism drives the flipping clamping mechanism 4 to clamp the empty cache box 2 and move it out of the top of the conveying mechanism 7 and release it. The transfer frame 3 is supported by the conveying mechanism 7, and the transfer robot 6 grabs the gloves in the transfer frame 3 to perform grabbing, transfer and loading operations.

[0123] A recycling bin is provided at one end of the conveying mechanism 7, below the flipping and clamping mechanism 4. The translation mechanism drives the flipping and clamping mechanism 4 to clamp the empty buffer magazine 2 and move it out of the top of the conveying mechanism 7, and then releases it. The empty buffer magazine 2 falls into the recycling bin to complete the recycling operation. Alternatively, the empty buffer magazine 2 can be moved away from the conveying mechanism 7 by existing handling robots or manual handling.

[0124] When the flipping clamping mechanism 4 clamps the cache box 2 or the transfer frame 3 and moves it into or out of the conveying mechanism 7, if the conveying mechanism 7 is stationary, friction will occur between the bottom of the cache box 2 or the transfer frame 3 and the conveying mechanism 7, affecting the service life. Therefore, when the translation mechanism 8 drives the flipping clamping mechanism 4 to move into or out of the conveying mechanism 7, the conveying mechanism 7 and the translation mechanism 8 operate synchronously.

[0125] After the gloves are loaded into the transfer frame 3, the gripping mechanism 4 is turned over to grip the transfer frame 3 on the conveying mechanism 7, remove it from the conveying mechanism 7, and flip it over so that the frame opening faces downward. The translation mechanism 8 moves back to the top of the conveying mechanism 7 and cooperates with the movement of the conveying mechanism 7 to load the next buffer box 2.

[0127] On the basis of embodiment 1, this embodiment sets the buffer box 2 to be able to buckle into the transfer frame 3 to achieve the matching of the transfer frame 3 and the buffer box 2. The gloves are stored in the buffer box 2 in stacks.

[0128] The frame bar 301 at the bottom of the transfer frame 3 is provided with a plurality of raised beadings 302, and the raised beadings 302 correspond to the frame bar 301 one by one, and the cache box 2 can be buckled into the transfer frame 3 (such as Figure 7 shown).

[0129] When the buffer box 2 is buckled into the transfer frame 3, the raised pressure strips 302 press against the gloves; the raised pressure strips 302 are used to press the gloves tightly to ensure the neatness of the stack of gloves when turning over.

[0130] The bottom plate 201 is provided with a plurality of ventilation holes 205 . The ventilation holes 205 are provided to prevent the gloves in the buffer box 2 from being adsorbed on the bottom plate 201 due to the negative pressure formed between the bottom plate 201 and the gloves when the gloves in the buffer box 2 are turned over into the transfer frame 3 due to the exhaust of air in the buffer box 2 .

[0131] This embodiment is provided with an auxiliary mechanism 5 , and the flip clamping mechanism 4 is higher than the height of the cache box 2 or the transfer frame 3 on the conveying mechanism 7 . The auxiliary mechanism 5 is used to assist the cache box 2 and / or the transfer frame 3 to enter or leave the flip clamping mechanism 4 .

[0132] In this embodiment, the auxiliary mechanism 5 can use an auxiliary telescopic cylinder that can be extended and retracted up and down. The fixed ends of the two telescopic devices 402 of each clamping assembly are respectively fixedly connected to the telescopic end of an auxiliary telescopic cylinder. The two auxiliary telescopic cylinders in the same clamping assembly are arranged back to back, and the fixed ends of the auxiliary telescopic cylinders are fixedly installed on the connecting plate 403. The auxiliary telescopic cylinders drive the corresponding telescopic devices 402 to move up and down without interfering with each other.

[0133] The loading process of this embodiment is as follows:

[0134] The flipping clamping mechanism 4 flips the transfer frame 3 so that the frame opening faces downwards;

[0135] The buffer boxes 2 are transported one by one by the conveying mechanism 7, and the translation mechanism 8 drives the flip clamping mechanism 4 to move onto the buffer box 2, so that the buffer box 2 corresponds to the transfer frame 3;

[0136] The auxiliary telescopic cylinder drives the lower telescopic mechanism 402 downward to the end of the buffer magazine 2. The telescopic mechanism 402 then extends, clamping the buffer magazine 2 in place. The auxiliary telescopic cylinder then retracts and upwards the telescopic mechanism 402, placing the buffer magazine 2 into the transfer frame 3 above. After the flipping clamping mechanism 4 flips the buffer magazine 2 and transfer frame 3, the lower auxiliary telescopic cylinder drives the lower telescopic mechanism 402 downward, placing the transfer frame 3 onto the conveyor 702. The conveyor 702 pauses, and the translation mechanism 8 drives the flipping clamping mechanism 4 out from above the conveyor 7, releasing the empty buffer magazine 2 into the recycling bin. Simultaneously, the transfer robot 6 grabs the gloves in the transfer frame 3 for loading. The flipping clamping mechanism 4 then moves above the transfer frame 3, grabs the transfer frame 3, and flips it. The conveyor 702 resumes operation, and the next buffer magazine 2 containing gloves is aligned with the transfer frame 3 for the flipping and loading process.

[0137] This embodiment reduces the number of times the flip clamping mechanism 4 moves back and forth in embodiment 1, while avoiding friction between the cache box 2 or the transfer frame 3 and the conveying mechanism 7, thereby ensuring the service life of the conveying mechanism 7.

[0138] Example 3

[0139] The difference from Example 2 is that this embodiment further provides a tray 1, in which a plurality of cache boxes 2 are placed. The cache boxes 2 are stored in the tray 1, which can achieve more reasonable space utilization.

[0140] The tray 1 is transported by the transport mechanism 7 , thereby achieving a transport operation for the cached material boxes 2 in the tray 1 .

[0141] The auxiliary mechanism 5 is used to lift the transfer frame 3 and / or the cache box 2 in the tray 1. Correspondingly, a avoidance structure for the auxiliary mechanism 5 to pass through is provided on the tray 1.

[0142] Correspondingly, this embodiment is further provided with a position sensor for sensing the position of the tray 1 .

[0143] Reference Figure 8 , the auxiliary mechanism 5 of this embodiment includes a lifting shuttle assembly, and the lifting shuttle assembly is located below the conveying device 702;

[0144] The lifting shuttle assembly includes a shuttle drive 507 connected to a shuttle lift 501. A shuttle space is provided on the conveyor 702 for the shuttle lift 501 to pass through. The shuttle drive 507 drives the shuttle lift 501 through the shuttle space of the conveyor 702, lifting and supporting the bottom of the cache box 2 or the bottom of the transfer frame 3. The conveyor 702 can be a roller conveyor, with the shuttle lift 501 passing through the gap between the rollers of the roller conveyor (i.e., the shuttle space). The conveyor 702 can also be two parallel conveyor belts, which lift and transport the two ends of the pallet 1, forming a shuttle space between the two conveyor belts for the auxiliary mechanism 5 to operate. The conveyor 702 can also be other existing conveying equipment that can cooperate with the auxiliary mechanism 5.

[0145] The avoidance structure on the tray 1 is arranged corresponding to the shuttle lifting member 501 , and the shuttle lifting member 501 passes through the avoidance structure on the tray 1 to lift the cache material box 2 in the tray 1 .

[0146] The shuttle lifting member 501 can be a rod. Accordingly, the bottoms of the buffer magazine 2 and the transfer frame 3 are each provided with a lifting slot, into which the top of the telescopic rod is inserted. The shuttle drive 507 can be a telescopic cylinder, with the telescopic end of the shuttle drive 507 connected to the rod. The avoidance structure of the tray 1 can then be a through-hole provided on the rod, through which the rod passes to lift the buffer magazine 2 within the tray 1. Alternatively, a motorized telescopic rod can be used to achieve lifting and retraction.

[0147] The shuttle lifting member 501 can also be a plate, and the avoidance structure of the tray 1 can be a gap corresponding to the shuttle plate. The shuttle drive device 507 controls the plate thereon to pass through the gap to lift the cache box 2 in the tray 1.

[0148] In this embodiment, the pallet 1 can be moved onto the conveying mechanism 7 or the loaded pallet 1 can be moved away from the conveying mechanism 7 by using an existing conveying device such as a conveying robot or a forklift.

[0149] The loading process of this embodiment is as follows:

[0150] The flipping clamping mechanism 4 flips the transfer frame 3 so that the frame opening faces downwards;

[0151] The tray 1 is placed on the conveying mechanism 7 for conveyance. When a cache box 2 in the tray 1 corresponds to the auxiliary mechanism 5, the conveying mechanism 7 stops, and the translation mechanism 8 drives the flip clamping mechanism 4 to clamp the transfer frame 3 and move it to the top of the cache box 2 corresponding to the auxiliary mechanism 5, thus achieving the correspondence between the cache box 2 and the transfer frame 3.

[0152] The lifting shuttle assembly lifts the corresponding buffer box 2 in the tray 1 and buckles it into the transfer frame 3. The buckled buffer box 2 is clamped and fixed by the flip clamping mechanism 4. The lifting shuttle assembly retracts to avoid interfering with the flipping operation of the flip clamping mechanism 4. The flip clamping mechanism 4 flips again, and the gloves in the buffer box 2 are poured into the transfer frame 3.

[0153] The lifting shuttle assembly lifts the transfer frame 3, the flipping clamping mechanism 4 releases the transfer frame 3, and the transfer frame 3 is supported by the lifting shuttle assembly. The translation mechanism 8 drives the flipping clamping mechanism 4 to move away from the top of the transfer frame 3, and the transfer robot 6 grabs the gloves in the transfer frame 3 for transfer and loading operations.

[0154] The flipping clamping mechanism 4 moves back and cooperates with the lifting shuttle assembly to clamp and flip the transfer frame 3, now with the frame opening facing downward. The flipping clamping mechanism 4 then releases the empty buffer box 2, which is then lifted and supported by the lifting shuttle assembly, which drives the empty buffer box 2 back into the tray 1. The conveying mechanism 7 drives the tray 1 to continue its operation. When the next buffer box 2 containing gloves aligns with the auxiliary mechanism 5, the conveying mechanism 7 stops and the glove loading operation is carried out based on the above process.

[0155] Example 4

[0156] On the basis of Example 3, to ensure the stability of the tray 1 during loading, a fixed pushing device 703 is provided on one side of the conveying device 702, and a blocking member 704 is provided on the other side of the conveying device 702. The fixed pushing device 703 can push the tray 1 on the conveying device 702 toward the blocking member 704, so that the tray 1 is fixed between the fixed pushing device 703 and the blocking member 704. When loading the buffered material box 2 in the tray 1, the conveying device 702 stops after conveying the tray 1 to the position corresponding to the flip clamping mechanism 4. The fixed pushing device 703 pushes the tray 1 toward the blocking member 704, firmly securing the tray 1 and preventing it from sliding during the glove loading process, which could result in loading failure.

[0157] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 5 The fixed pushing device 703 adopts a telescopic cylinder. The telescopic end of the telescopic cylinder is fixedly connected to the angle fixing block. The angle fixing block is set corresponding to a top corner of the pallet 1. The telescopic cylinder controls the angle fixing block to push toward the corresponding top corner of the pallet 1, and combines with the blocking member 704 to prevent the pallet 1 from sliding during loading.

[0158] The blocking member 704 may be a columnar structure or a plate-like structure, etc., provided along the other side of the conveying device 702 .

[0159] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 4 , the shuttle drive device 507 of this embodiment can be installed on the jacking and moving frame 502, one end of the jacking and moving frame 502 is slidably connected to the jacking and moving guide rail 508, and the jacking and moving guide rail 508 is installed on the support frame 701, and the other end of the jacking and moving frame 502 can be slidably connected to the jacking and moving guide rail 508 installed on the other side of the support frame 701, or a pulley can be provided at the bottom of the other end of the jacking and moving frame 502, and a slideway can be provided on the support frame 701, and the pulley can slide along the support frame 701;

[0160] It also includes a lifting translation drive mechanism 503 that drives the lifting movable frame 502 to move back and forth along the lifting movable guide rail 508.

[0161] In this embodiment, the lifting and translation driving mechanism 503 can refer to the structural arrangement of the translation driving mechanism 802. Specifically, the lifting and moving frame 502 can be moved back and forth along the lifting and moving guide rail 508 by a belt drive driven by a motor or a servo module.

[0162] The loading process of this embodiment is as follows:

[0163] The transfer frame 3 is gripped and flipped by the flipping clamping mechanism 4, so that the frame opening of the transfer frame 3 faces downward. After the tray 1 is transported to the set position by the conveying mechanism 7, the conveying mechanism 7 stops and the fixed pushing device 703 pushes the tray 1 toward the blocking member 704 to keep it fixed. The translation mechanism 8 drives the flipping clamping mechanism 4 to move, while the lifting translation drive mechanism 503 drives the lifting shuttle assembly to move, so that the flipping clamping mechanism 4 and the lifting shuttle assembly correspond to the same cache box 2 in the tray 1. At this time, the cache box 2 corresponds to the transfer frame 3.

[0164] The lifting shuttle assembly lifts the buffer box 2 and pushes it into the transfer frame 3, where it is clamped and fixed by the flip clamping mechanism 4. The lifting shuttle assembly retracts, and the flip clamping mechanism 4 flips again, and the gloves in the buffer box 2 are poured into the transfer frame 3;

[0165] The lifting shuttle assembly lifts the transfer frame 3, the flipping clamping mechanism 4 releases the transfer frame 3, and the transfer frame 3 is supported by the lifting shuttle assembly. The flipping clamping mechanism 4 moves away from the top of the transfer frame 3, and the transfer robot 6 grabs the gloves in the transfer frame 3 for transfer and loading operations.

[0166] The flip clamping mechanism 4 moves back and cooperates with the lifting shuttle assembly to clamp the transfer frame 3 again and flip it over. The flip clamping mechanism 4 releases the buffer box 2, which is lifted and supported by the lifting shuttle assembly. The lifting shuttle assembly drives the empty buffer box 2 back into the tray 1. At this time, the flip clamping mechanism 4 only clamps the transfer frame 3, with the frame opening of the transfer frame 3 facing downward. The lifting and translation drive mechanism 503 drives the lifting shuttle assembly to the corresponding position of the next buffer box 2. The translation mechanism 8 drives the flip clamping mechanism 4 to move the transfer frame 3 with the frame opening facing downward to above the buffer box 2. The lifting shuttle assembly lifts the buffer box 2 and pushes it into the transfer frame 3, where it is clamped and fixed by the flip clamping mechanism 4. The lifting shuttle assembly retracts, and the flip clamping mechanism 4 flips over again, and the gloves in the buffer box 2 are poured into the transfer frame 3. The lifting shuttle assembly then lifts the transfer frame 3, and the flip clamping mechanism 4 releases the transfer frame 3. The lifting shuttle assembly supports the transfer frame 3, and the flip clamping mechanism 4 moves away from above the transfer frame 3. The transfer robot 6 grabs the gloves in the transfer frame 3 for transfer and loading. The flip clamping mechanism 4 moves back to cooperate with the lifting shuttle assembly to clamp and flip the transfer frame 3 again. The flip clamping mechanism 4 releases the buffer box 2, which is lifted and supported by the lifting shuttle assembly. The lifting shuttle assembly drives the empty buffer box 2 back into the tray 1.

[0167] Thus, all buffered material boxes 2 in the tray 1 are clamped, turned over and loaded one by one until the loading operation of all gloves in the current tray 1 is completed.

[0168] After all the buffer boxes 2 in the tray 1 are loaded, they can be removed from the conveying mechanism 7 by a handling robot or a forklift.

[0169] In order to achieve reasonable storage of the cache boxes 2 and improve space utilization, the present embodiment places a plurality of cache boxes 2 in the tray 1 .

[0170] Example 5

[0171] Based on Example 4, Figure 1 and Figure 9 , in order to improve the loading efficiency, the auxiliary mechanism 5 of the present application also includes a supporting jacking component;

[0172] The support and lifting assembly is provided at one end of the conveying mechanism 7, and the support and lifting assembly is located below the translation guide rail 801;

[0173] The support jacking assembly includes a jacking support frame 504, on which a support driving device 509 is installed. The support driving device 509 is connected to a support jacking member 505, and the support driving device 509 drives the support jacking member 505 to lift the bottom of the transfer frame 3.

[0174] Reference Figure 9The support drive device 509 includes a lifting cylinder fixed on the lifting support frame 504, and the telescopic end of the lifting cylinder is fixedly connected to the supporting lifting member 505. In order to ensure the stability of the connection, a guide telescopic rod 506 is further provided on both sides of the lifting cylinder. One end of the guide telescopic rod 506 is fixed to the lifting support frame 504, and the other end is fixedly connected to the supporting lifting member 505. In this embodiment, the supporting lifting member 505 adopts a supporting lifting plate. Both ends of the supporting lifting plate are respectively provided with a telescopic clamping assembly for clamping and fixing the positioning block 303 of the transfer frame 3. A single telescopic clamping assembly includes two clamping members arranged opposite to each other. The clamping members are respectively moved relative to each other by micro cylinders. The structure of the clamping member can refer to the structure of the clamping positioning member 404 to set the splint and / or column structure. Positioning slots 10 can be provided on both sides of the transfer frame 3 corresponding to the column structure.

[0175] In this embodiment, the transfer frame 3 is placed on the supporting lifting member 505 .

[0176] In this embodiment, the buffer glove loading method is as follows:

[0177] The supporting lifting member 505 lifts the transfer frame 3 and sends it into the flip clamping mechanism 4. The flip clamping mechanism 4 flips the transfer frame 3 so that the frame opening of the transfer frame 3 faces downward. Specifically, the flip clamping mechanism 4 clamps the positioning blocks 303 at both ends of the transfer frame 3.

[0178] After the tray 1 is transported to the set position by the conveying mechanism 7, the conveying mechanism 7 stops and the fixed pushing device 703 pushes the tray 1 toward the blocking member 704 to keep it fixed. The flip clamping mechanism 4 moves along the translation guide 801 to the top of the buffer box 2 containing gloves in the tray 1, so that the buffer box 2 and the transfer frame 3 are aligned.

[0179] The shuttle lifting member 501 lifts the corresponding cache box 2 and pushes it into the transfer frame 3. The flip clamping mechanism 4 clamps and fixes the transfer frame 3, moves it back to the top of the supporting lifting assembly, and flips it again, and the gloves fall into the transfer frame 3.

[0180] The flip clamping mechanism 4 releases the transfer frame 3 and lifts the transfer frame 3 through the supporting jacking member 505, and the transfer robot 6 grabs the gloves in the transfer frame 3 to realize the transfer and loading operation.

[0181] At the same time, the flipping clamping mechanism 4 drives the empty cache material box 2 back to the top of the shuttle lifting member 501. After the cache material box 2 is flipped, the empty cache material box 2 is lifted by the shuttle lifting member 501, the flipping clamping mechanism 4 releases the cache material box, and the shuttle lifting member 501 drives the empty cache material box 2 back to the tray 1.

[0182] Then, the next buffer box 2 with gloves in the tray 1 is loaded.

[0183] While the flipping clamping mechanism 4 replays the cache box 2, the transfer robot 6 synchronously grabs the gloves in the transfer frame 3 to realize the transfer and loading operation, saving the time of replaying the empty cache box 2, thereby improving the operation efficiency of the entire system.

[0184] Example 6

[0185] Based on Example 5, multiple trays 1 are stacked in this embodiment; the stacked trays can be covered with dustproof cloth, dustproof cover, etc. to achieve dustproof. Of course, a single cache box 2 can also be covered with dustproof cloth, dustproof cover, etc. to achieve dustproof.

[0186] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 5 In order to further improve mechanical automation, the cache glove feeding system of this embodiment further includes:

[0187] Destacker 14: used for destacking the stacked pallets 1. The destackered pallets 1 are transported one by one through the conveying mechanism 7.

[0188] Palletizer 15: used for recycling and palletizing the pallets 1 that have been loaded.

[0189] The stacked pallets 1 can be transported to the depalletizer 14 by a forklift or an existing handling robot for depalletization and / or the loaded pallets 1 on the conveying mechanism 7 can be palletized by the palletizer 15. The depalletizer 14 and the palletizer 15 realize automatic loading and recycling of the pallets 1.

[0190] The depalletizer 14 and the palletizer 15 can be located at either end of the conveyor mechanism 7. A single pallet 1 depalletized by the depalletizer 14 is directly transferred to one end of the conveyor mechanism 7 for conveyance, or the conveyor mechanism 7 transports the loaded pallets 1 to the other end for direct palletization by the palletizer 15. Due to factors such as site size or other obstructions, the depalletizer 14 and the palletizer 15 may not be located at either end of the conveyor mechanism 7. To increase applicability, this embodiment further includes a transfer mechanism 9, which is located between the depalletizer 14 and the conveyor mechanism 7 and / or between the palletizer 15 and the conveyor mechanism 7.

[0191] The transfer mechanism 9 is provided between the depalletizer 14 and the conveying mechanism 7 and is used to transfer the pallet 1 depalletized by the depalletizer 14 to the conveying mechanism 7;

[0192] The transfer mechanism 9 is provided between the palletizer 15 and the conveying mechanism 7 and is used to transfer the pallet 1 on the conveying mechanism 7 to the palletizer 15 to assist the palletizer 15 in performing the palletizing operation;

[0193] The transfer mechanism 9 includes a conveying system 901, a transfer driving device 902 for driving the conveying system, and a lifting device 903 for moving the driving conveying system 901 and the transfer driving device 902 up and down;

[0194] The transfer system 901 is arranged between the depalletizer 14 and the conveying mechanism 7 and / or between the palletizer 15 and the conveying mechanism 7 .

[0195] The position of the conveying system 901 is set according to the relative positions of the actual depalletizer 14, palletizer 15, conveying mechanism 7 and glove conveying line 16, so as to achieve the purpose of transferring the pallet 1. For example, if the conveying mechanism 7 is parallel to the glove conveying line 16, the depalletizer 14 and palletizer 15 can be respectively located at the two ends of the conveying mechanism 7. Alternatively, if the conveying mechanism 7 and the glove conveying line 16 are perpendicular to each other, the depalletizer 14 and palletizer 15 can both be located on one side of the conveying mechanism 7. Alternatively, one of the depalletizer 14 and palletizer 15 can be installed on one side of the conveying mechanism 7, and the other on the end of the conveying mechanism 7 away from the glove conveying line 16, and so on. If the conveying system 901 and the conveying mechanism 7 are perpendicular or intersecting, a corresponding gap is provided on the transfer mechanism 9 or the conveying device 702 at the intersection to avoid interference with the operation of any of the conveying system 901, the conveying device 702, or the lifting device 903.

[0196] For example, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 5Due to space limitations, in this embodiment, both the depalletizer 14 and the palletizer 15 are located on one side of the conveyor mechanism 7. The conveyor device 702 utilizes a roller conveyor. The conveyor system 901 of a single transfer mechanism 9 comprises at least two conveyor belt systems. The conveyor belt systems 901 of the same transfer mechanism 9 are located on the same transfer frame 904, with the pulleys of the conveyor belt systems 901 being rotatably connected to the transfer frame 904 via bearings or other means. The two conveyor belt systems primarily serve to support and move the pallets 1 without interfering with the operation of the conveyor device 702. The two conveyor belt systems can be symmetrical or asymmetrical, or replaced with other existing conveyor equipment, without specific limitations. The conveyor system 901 can also utilize other existing devices capable of supporting and conveying. In this embodiment, the depalletizer 14 corresponds to one end of the conveyor device 702. Therefore, one of the two conveyor belt systems in the corresponding transfer mechanism 9 is located at one end of the conveyor device 702, and the other is located in the gap between two adjacent rollers of the conveyor device 702. A corresponding notch can be provided on the roller conveyor frame. If one of the two rollers is also located in the gap between two adjacent rollers of the conveying device 702, a corresponding notch must also be provided on the frame of the roller conveyor. There are no restrictions on the conveying device 702 and the conveying system 901. For example, if the conveying device 702 uses two parallel conveyor belt systems and the conveying system 901 uses a roller conveyor, the conveying device 702 can be located in the gap between two adjacent rollers of the conveying system 901, and a corresponding notch can be provided on the frame of the roller conveyor.

[0197] The transfer drive device 902 includes a motor fixedly installed on the transfer frame 904, and the motor drives the transfer shaft 905 to rotate. The pulleys at the same end of the two conveying systems 901 are coaxially fixedly connected to the transfer shaft 905.

[0198] In this embodiment, the transfer frame 904 is set as a rectangular frame, and the lifting device 903 corresponds to the four corners of the transfer frame 904. The lifting device 903 adopts a lifting cylinder. The lifting device 903 is fixedly set, and the telescopic end of the lifting device 903 is fixedly connected to the transfer frame 904.

[0199] The transfer mechanism 9 is used to transfer depalletized pallets 1 one by one to the conveyor mechanism 7, or to transfer loaded pallets 1 containing empty buffer magazines 2 to the palletizer 15 for palletizing. The transfer frame 904 provides support for the conveyor system 901 and the transfer drive device 902, and the lifting device 903 directly lifts the transfer frame 904, thereby driving the conveyor system 901 and the transfer drive device 902 to move up and down.

[0200] The entire buffered glove loading system of the present application can be installed directly on the side of an existing glove conveyor line 16. The conveyor mechanism 7 is perpendicular to the glove conveyor line 16, and the support and lifting assembly is located between the conveyor mechanism 7 and the glove conveyor line 16. One end of the translation guide rail 801 is located above the conveyor mechanism 7, and the other end extends above the glove conveyor line 16. Multiple groups of glove conveyor lines 16 can be installed to accommodate the loading of gloves of different types and sizes.

[0201] Example 7

[0202] Based on Example 6, Figure 2 , the transfer loading mechanism of this embodiment further includes a moving beam 11, the transfer manipulator 6 is arranged on the moving beam 11, one end of the moving beam 11 is slidably connected to the translation guide rail 801, and the other end is slidably connected to the translation guide rail 801, or a pulley is provided at the bottom of the other end of the moving beam 11, a slide is provided on the support frame 701, and the other end of the moving beam 11 is slidably connected to the support frame;

[0203] The translation mechanism further includes a beam driving mechanism 17 , and the movable beam 11 is driven by the beam driving mechanism 17 to move along the translation guide rail 801 .

[0204] The movable crossbeam 11 is provided with a lifting mechanism 12, which is connected to a manipulator platform 13. Multiple transfer manipulators 6 are fixedly connected to the manipulator platform 13, or multiple rotating mechanisms are installed on the manipulator platform 13, with each rotating mechanism fixedly connected to a transfer manipulator 6. In this embodiment, multiple rotating mechanisms are installed on the manipulator platform 13, with each rotating mechanism fixedly connected to a transfer manipulator 6. The lifting mechanism 12 utilizes a lifting cylinder, while the rotating mechanism utilizes a rotating cylinder. The number of rotating mechanisms and transfer manipulators 6 installed on the manipulator platform 13 corresponds to the number of buffer units 204 on the buffer magazine 2, enabling the grabbing of multiple stacks of gloves at once. After the transfer manipulator 6 grabs the gloves from the transfer frame 3, the crossbeam drive mechanism 17 drives the movable crossbeam 11 to the top of the glove conveyor line 16, where it cooperates with the lifting mechanism 12 to place the grabbed gloves on the glove conveyor line 16.

[0205] Initially, tray 1 contains multiple buffer boxes 2, in which gloves are buffered. Trays 1 are stacked and stored. Transfer frame 3 rests on a supporting jacking assembly, which clamps and secures transfer frame 3, specifically, clamping and positioning blocks 303.

[0206] In this embodiment, the steps of the buffer glove loading method are as follows:

[0207] Step 1: The flip clamping mechanism 4 clamps the transfer frame 3 and flips it so that the frame opening of the transfer frame 3 faces downward. Specifically, the flip clamping mechanism 4 moves above the supporting jacking assembly, and the supporting jacking assembly lifts the transfer frame 3 and pushes the transfer frame 3 into the flip clamping mechanism 4. Then, the flip clamping mechanism 4 clamps the transfer frame 3 and flips it so that the frame opening of the transfer frame 3 faces downward, and the supporting jacking assembly falls back.

[0208] Step 2: The pallet 1 is transported on the conveying mechanism 7, which cooperates with the translation mechanism 8 so that the single buffer box 2 in the pallet 1 corresponds to the transfer frame 3. Specifically, the handling robot or the staff moves the stacked pallets 1 to the depalletizer 14 by a forklift. The depalletizer 14 depalletizes the stacked pallets 1. The lifting device 903 lifts the transfer rack 904, and the single pallet 1 falls on the conveying system 901. The conveying system 901 drives the single pallet 1 to be transferred to the conveying device 702. Then the lifting device 903 falls back and moves the transfer rack 904 down to the bottom of the conveying device 702. The single pallet 1 falls on the conveying device 702. The conveying device 702 moves the single pallet 1 to the transfer mechanism 9 corresponding to the palletizer 15. The fixed pushing device 703 fixes the pallet 1 between the fixed pushing device 703 and the blocking member 704. The translation mechanism 8 drives the flipping clamping mechanism 4 to move above the pallet 1, so that the single buffer box 2 in the pallet 1 corresponds to the transfer frame 3.

[0209] Step 3: The flipping clamping mechanism 4 clamps and fixes the cache box 2 corresponding to the transfer frame 3, and then flips the clamped cache box 2 and the transfer frame 3 synchronously, and the gloves in the cache box 2 fall into the transfer frame 3. Specifically, the lifting shuttle assembly passes through the shuttle space of the conveying device 702 and the avoidance structure of the tray 1, and lifts the cache box 2 corresponding to the transfer frame 3 into the flipping clamping mechanism 4. The cache box 2 is buckled into the transfer frame 3, and the raised pressure strip 302 presses the gloves to the bottom of the cache box 2 to prevent the gloves from being neatly flipped during the subsequent flipping. The flipping clamping mechanism 4 clamps and fixes the cache box 2. After the flipping clamping mechanism 4 moves to the top of the supporting lifting assembly based on the translation mechanism, it performs the flipping operation, and the gloves in the cache box 2 fall into the transfer frame 3.

[0210] Step 4: The flipping clamping mechanism 4 releases the transfer frame 3, and the transfer robot 6 grabs and transfers the gloves in the transfer frame 3 for loading. Specifically, the support and lifting assembly moves upward to support the transfer frame 3, specifically by clamping and supporting the transfer frame 3 through the positioning block 303. The flipping clamping mechanism 4 releases the transfer frame 3, and the support and lifting assembly drives the transfer frame 3 downward. The flipping clamping mechanism 4 drives the buffer box 2 to flip, then moves back above the tray 1. The lifting shuttle assembly moves upward to catch the empty buffer box 2, then moves downward, allowing the empty buffer box 2 to fall back into the tray 1. At the same time, the moving crossbeam 11 drives the transfer robot 6 to move above the transfer frame 3. The lifting mechanism 12 drives the transfer robot 6 downward, grabs the gloves in the transfer frame 3, and then moves upward. The moving crossbeam 11 then drives the transfer robot 6 to move above the glove conveyor line 16. If necessary, the transfer robot 6 is rotated based on the rotation mechanism to adjust the angle of glove release. Then the transfer robot 6 is controlled to move downward, releasing the gloves, and the gloves fall onto the glove conveying line 16.

[0211] The lifting and moving frame 502 drives the lifting and shuttle assembly to the bottom of the buffer box 2 containing gloves on the next pallet 1, lifts the buffer box 2, and repeats the above steps until all buffer boxes 2 on the pallet 1 are loaded. The lifting device 903 in the transfer mechanism 9 corresponding to the palletizer 15 lifts the conveyor system 901 and moves the pallet 1 to the bottom of the palletizer 15 for palletizing. The next pallet 1 is then loaded until all gloves are loaded.

[0212] In the above embodiments, the number and position of position sensors increase accordingly according to the increased mechanical structure and position sensing requirements. The specific setting positions can be adjusted accordingly by those skilled in the art according to the on-site application environment, the structural shape and size of each mechanism or frame, etc. In each embodiment, the position sensor is combined with a control terminal (such as an industrial computer, etc.) to realize the operation control of each mechanism and equipment. The specific control method used adopts the existing technology and is not the focus of improvement of this application, so it will not be repeated.
