Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of rubber pad production and packaging, and in particular to an automatic rubber pad production and packaging method and system. Background Art

[0002] Rubber pads are widely used in daily life, such as industrial anti-slip pads, cushioning pads, and sealing pads. However, in the production process, the cutting and forming of rubber pad raw materials mostly rely on manual operation or simple mechanical assistance. Manual operation is not only inefficient, but to ensure the production efficiency of rubber pads, factories usually rely on automated equipment for production and packaging, and rely on the installation of conveyors to connect each link, eliminating the need for manual operation by staff.

[0003] In the aforementioned prior art, although automatic packaging of rubber pads can be achieved on the production line, the factory generally produces a large number of rubber pads in advance, and then stores the rubber pads in the warehouse, waiting to be taken out and packaged according to user requirements at any time; therefore, after the user places an order, the staff needs to go to the warehouse, take out the specific rubber pads required by the user, and then put the rubber pads into the packaging production line. At the same time, the equipment must be debugged according to the user's requirements before automatic packaging can be achieved; as a result, it is impossible to start automatic packaging directly after the user places an order, and there are staff debugging and picking-up stages in the middle, which greatly affects the production and packaging efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a method and system for automatic production and packaging of rubber pads, so as to solve the problem in the prior art that after a user places an order, staff are required to go to the warehouse, take out the specific rubber pads required by the user, and then put the rubber pads into the packaging production line. At the same time, the equipment must be debugged according to the user's requirements before automatic packaging can be achieved; as a result, automatic packaging cannot be started directly after the user places an order, and there are staff debugging and picking-up stages in the middle, which greatly affects the production and packaging efficiency.

[0005] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides a method for automatically producing and packaging a rubber pad, comprising the following steps:

[0006] Pre-collect order information, establish an order information database, classify orders according to different types, and pre-write specific equipment operating parameters for orders of different categories;

[0007] Receive new orders through the online platform and compare the new orders with the categories in the order information database;

[0008] Confirm the type of new order, start the corresponding equipment operating parameters according to the type, and package the new order;

[0009] Start the automated equipment to place the rubber mat on the conveyor, which then transports it to the bundling equipment to roll it into a round roll;

[0010] The round roll is further conveyed to the heat shrink film packaging equipment for heat shrink film packaging;

[0011] After heat shrink packaging, the rubber pads are stacked according to a preset number according to the operating parameters of the equipment, and finally the stacked rubber pads are transported to the outer packaging equipment;

[0012] The stacked rubber pads are packaged in a personalized manner by the express bag packaging device to obtain personalized bagged rubber pads;

[0013] The personalized bagged rubber pad is continuously conveyed and labeled to obtain the final packaging rubber pad;

[0014] The final packaging rubber pads are collected and transported to the shipping area.

[0015] Among them, order information is pre-collected, an order information database is established, orders are classified according to different types, and specific equipment operating parameters are pre-written for orders of different categories, including:

[0017] Cleaning and standardization of pad features;

[0018] Use neural network algorithms to classify the features after cleaning and categorize different rubber pads according to rubber pad model, order quantity and delivery time;

[0019] The classified rubber pad information is stored uniformly to form an order information database;

[0020] According to the requirements between different types of rubber pads, different types of equipment operating parameters are pre-programmed. When the rubber pads are subsequently packaged, the packaging equipment operates accordingly according to the equipment operating parameters to produce the rubber pads into packages that meet the type requirements.

[0021] The automated equipment is started to place the rubber mat on the conveyor, which then transports it to the bundling equipment to roll it into a round roll. Specifically, the process includes:

[0022] The pre-produced rubber pads are classified and stored in the warehouse;

[0023] The AGV moves the rubber pad to the storage area where the user needs it. The robotic arm and suction cup installed in the warehouse place the rubber pad on the AGV and then transport it to the conveyor of the packaging production line.

[0024] A robotic arm and a suction cup are set on one side of the conveyor. The robotic arm drives the suction cup to absorb the rubber pad to be packaged, and then moves it to the conveyor for transportation;

[0025] The rubber pad is conveyed into the bundling and rolling equipment, which is equipped with a rolling rod. When the rubber pad contacts the rolling rod, the front end is pressed and lifted up. As the rolling rod rotates, the rubber pad is rolled into a roll.

[0026] The rolling rod is pulled out, and a circle of strapping is tied around the outside of the rubber pad of the roll for reinforcement;

[0027] Equipment for conveying round rubber rolls into bundles.

[0028] The round roll is further transported to the heat shrink film packaging equipment for heat shrink film packaging, which specifically includes:

[0029] After each bundle of film is rolled up, it is transported to the next conveyor belt by a lifting conveyor with partitions;

[0030] At the same time, the conveying direction between the next conveyor belt and the lifting conveyor changes, converting the horizontally arranged rubber pads into vertical arrangements and continuing to convey them;

[0031] The round roll is put into the heat shrink film packaging equipment for heat shrink film packaging;

[0032] The rubber pad after heat shrink film packaging is further transported to the heating furnace for heat shrink film heat sealing and molding.

[0033] The heat shrink packaging rubber pads are stacked according to a preset number according to the operating parameters of the equipment, and the stacked rubber pads are finally transported to the outer packaging equipment, which specifically includes:

[0034] The encapsulated and formed round roll rubber pad is transported to the next conveyor belt again through the lifting conveyor with partitions;

[0035] After being transported to the outer packaging equipment, the rubber pad is loaded into a courier bag.

[0036] The stacked rubber pads are packaged in a personalized manner by the express bag packaging equipment to obtain bagged rubber pads, which specifically includes:

[0037] An infrared sensor is set at the entrance of the outer packaging equipment to monitor the number of rubber pads entering the courier bag;

[0038] The outer packaging equipment receives the equipment operating parameters of the control system, obtains the specific packaging quantity, and then controls the quantity entering the express bag to meet the required quantity of the rubber pad;

[0039] After being transported, the round rolls of rubber mats entering the courier bag are gradually accumulated. When the required number is reached, the transport is stopped and the opening of the courier bag is sealed to obtain the bagged rubber mats.

[0040] The bagged rubber pads are personalized according to the order requirements and the equipment operating parameters.

[0041] The bagged rubber pads are personalized according to the order requirements and equipment operating parameters, specifically including:

[0042] A printer is set on both sides of the subsequent conveyor belt. The printer receives the operating parameters of the equipment in advance. When the bagged rubber pad passes by, it is detected by the sensor and the personalized pattern required by the order is printed on the surface of the courier bag.

[0043] The conveyor belt is also equipped with a pasting machine. Different types of decorations are pre-assembled on the pasting machine. When the bagged rubber pad passes by, it is detected by the sensor. At this time, the decoration that meets the order type and customer requirements is pasted onto the surface of the express bag to complete the personalized customization and obtain a personalized bagged rubber pad.

[0044] The personalized bagged rubber cushion is further conveyed and labeled to obtain the final packaging rubber cushion, which specifically includes:

[0045] After the personalized bagged rubber pad is output from the express bag packaging device, it is continuously transported to the automatic labeling machine;

[0046] The automatic labeling machine receives the equipment operating parameters of the control system in advance, thereby automatically generating a courier number and a rubber pad information label corresponding to the rubber pad;

[0047] After aligning an infrared sensor with the personalized bagged rubber pad, the express number and rubber pad information are attached to the express bag of the bagged rubber pad to obtain the final packaging rubber pad.

[0048] The final packaging rubber cushions are collected and transported to the shipping area, specifically including:

[0049] The final packaging rubber pad is continuously transported and dropped into a collection box;

[0050] A pressure sensor is provided in the collection box. When the pressure value reaches a preset value, it indicates that the collection amount has reached the upper limit, and the transportation is stopped at this time;

[0051] The AGV is notified to transport the collection box to the delivery area, and then the free collection box is moved for collection, and this process is repeated.

[0052] The present invention also provides an automatic production and packaging system for rubber pads, which adopts the above-mentioned automatic production and packaging method for rubber pads, including an order pre-collection and writing module, an order comparison module, an equipment startup module, a rubber pad bundling module, a rubber pad heat shrink film packaging module, a rubber pad stacking module, a rubber pad personalized packaging module, a packaging labeling module, and a packaging and delivery module, wherein the order pre-collection and writing module, the order comparison module, and the equipment startup module are connected in sequence, and the equipment startup module is respectively connected to the rubber pad bundling module, the rubber pad heat shrink film packaging module, the rubber pad stacking module, the rubber pad personalized packaging module, the packaging labeling module, and the packaging and delivery module;

[0057] The rubber pad heat shrink film packaging module is used to continue to transport the round roll to the heat shrink film packaging equipment for heat shrink film packaging;

[0058] The rubber pad stacking module is used to stack the rubber pads after heat shrink packaging according to the preset quantity according to the operating parameters of the equipment, and finally transport the stacked rubber pads to the outer packaging equipment;

[0059] The rubber pad personalized packaging module is used to personalize the rubber pads stacked by the express bag packaging device to obtain personalized bagged rubber pads;

[0060] The packaging labeling module is used to continue conveying and labeling the personalized bagged rubber cushion to obtain the final packaging rubber cushion;

[0061] The packaging and delivery module is used to collect the final packaging rubber pads and transport them to the delivery area.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0076] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to be used to explain the present invention, but should not be understood as limiting the present invention.

[0077] See also Figures 1 to 9 The present invention provides a method for automatically producing and packaging a rubber pad.

[0078] The steps include:

[0079] Pre-collect order information, establish an order information database, classify orders according to different types, and pre-write specific equipment operating parameters for orders of different categories;

[0080] Specifically include:

[0081] Collect detailed order information from e-commerce platform order information, system database and offline orders to obtain the characteristics of different rubber pads;

[0082] Obtain order information from multiple channels, integrate data from different sources, and extract key feature information about rubber pads, so as to obtain comprehensive and accurate rubber pad order information and provide a data basis for subsequent processing.

[0083] Cleaning and standardization of pad features;

[0084] Use data cleaning technology to remove duplicate, erroneous or incomplete data, and use standardization methods to unify data in different formats and units into a standard format to facilitate subsequent processing and analysis, thereby improving data quality, eliminating noise and inconsistencies in the data, and making the data comparable and usable.

[0085] Use neural network algorithms to classify the features after cleaning and categorize different rubber pads according to rubber pad model, order quantity and delivery time;

[0086] The neural network algorithm automatically extracts feature patterns by learning from large amounts of data, and divides rubber pad orders into different categories based on features such as rubber pad model, order quantity, and delivery time, thereby achieving accurate classification of rubber pad orders so that different processing methods can be adopted for different types of orders in the future.

[0087] The classified rubber pad information is stored uniformly to form an order information database;

[0088] Database technology is used to store the classified rubber pad information according to a certain structure, and indexing and other mechanisms are established to achieve efficient storage and retrieval of information, thereby centrally managing order information and facilitating subsequent query, call and analysis.

[0089] According to the requirements between different types of rubber pads, different types of equipment operating parameters are pre-programmed. When the rubber pads are subsequently packaged, the packaging equipment operates accordingly according to the equipment operating parameters to produce the rubber pads into packages that meet the type requirements.

[0090] According to the characteristics and packaging requirements of different types of rubber pads, the equipment operating parameters are pre-set. During packaging, the equipment adjusts its operating status according to these parameters and completes the packaging operation that meets the requirements, thereby ensuring that the packaging equipment can accurately package according to the requirements of different types of rubber pads and improve packaging quality and efficiency.

[0091] Receive new orders through the online platform and compare the new orders with the categories in the order information database;

[0092] Use network communication technology to receive new order information, compare the new order with the classification in the order information database through data matching algorithm, find the matching order type, and quickly determine the type of new order so as to call the corresponding processing flow and equipment parameters.

[0093] Confirm the type of new order, start the corresponding equipment operating parameters according to the type, and package the new order;

[0094] After determining the new order type based on the comparison results, the control system selects the corresponding parameters from the preset equipment operating parameters and sends them to the packaging equipment, so that the equipment can package the new order according to these parameters, thereby realizing the automated packaging processing of the new order and improving packaging efficiency and accuracy.

[0095] Start the automated equipment to place the rubber mat on the conveyor, which then transports it to the bundling equipment to roll it into a round roll;

[0096] Specifically include:

[0097] The pre-produced rubber pads are classified and stored in the warehouse;

[0098] Rubber pads are classified and stored according to their types, specifications and other characteristics, and a corresponding inventory management system is established to facilitate the management and retrieval of rubber pads; this makes it easier to quickly find the required rubber pads according to order requirements and improve delivery efficiency.

[0099] The AGV moves the rubber pad to the storage area where the user needs it. The robotic arm and suction cup installed in the warehouse place the rubber pad on the AGV and then transport it to the conveyor of the packaging production line.

[0100] The AGV moves to the designated storage area according to the control system's instructions. The robotic arm and suction cup place the rubber mats on the AGV through precise positioning and grasping actions. The AGV then transports the rubber mats to the packaging production line along a preset path, realizing automated transportation of the rubber mats between the warehouse and the packaging production line, improving transportation efficiency and accuracy.

[0101] A robotic arm and a suction cup are set on one side of the conveyor. The robotic arm drives the suction cup to absorb the rubber pad to be packaged, and then moves it to the conveyor for transportation;

[0102] The robotic arm is equipped with an In-Sight 8405 industrial camera and an E3Z-T61 photoelectric sensor. When the rubber pad is moved, the photoelectric sensor first detects the rubber pad inside the AGV, triggering the PLC to pause the conveyor. The industrial camera is then started to capture the rubber pad image, and the pad contour is extracted using the Canny algorithm. The tilt angle of the pad is then detected using the Hough transform. The suction cup is then calibrated to align it with the pad. The PLC then sends the visual data (center coordinates X / Y, angle θ) to the robotic arm controller, which starts the robotic arm and descends at a speed of 1 m / s from a safe height (50 mm above the pad). When it approaches the pad, the PLC automatically adjusts the suction cup’s position to align it with the pad. When it is close to the rubber pad surface (distance 2mm), it slows down to 0.2m / s to avoid impact. After the suction cup contacts the rubber pad, the vacuum generator starts (vacuum degree -80kPa), and the pressure sensor detects the adsorption force (threshold ≥-75kPa). If it does not meet the standard, it will alarm and retry. Finally, the rubber pad is adsorbed, and then the PLC calculates the target placement position according to the conveyor encoder data. At this time, the robot arm dynamically adjusts the joint angle to avoid the conveyor bracket and moves at a constant speed to the top of the conveyor. Then the suction cup releases the rubber pad (vacuum degree drops below -20kPa), the robot arm returns to the initial position, and finally the PLC resumes the conveyor operation, triggering the next rubber pad detection, and looping the process.

[0103] The robotic arm and suction cup locate the position of the rubber pad through sensors. The suction cup generates negative pressure to absorb the rubber pad. The robotic arm moves the rubber pad to the conveyor according to the set trajectory and releases the rubber pad so that it is transported along the conveyor. In this way, the rubber pad is accurately placed on the conveyor, ensuring that the rubber pad can smoothly enter the subsequent packaging process.

[0104] The rubber pad is conveyed into the bundling and rolling equipment, which is equipped with a rolling rod. When the rubber pad contacts the rolling rod, the front end is pressed and lifted up. As the rolling rod rotates, the rubber pad is rolled into a roll.

[0105] The rubber pad comes into contact with the rolling rod during transportation. The shape and movement of the rolling rod cause the front end of the rubber pad to be pressurized and tilted up. As the rolling rod continues to rotate, the rubber pad gradually winds around the rolling rod to form a round roll, and then the rubber pad is rolled into a round roll shape, which is convenient for subsequent packaging and transportation.

[0106] The rolling rod is pulled out, and a circle of strapping is tied around the outside of the rubber pad of the roll for reinforcement;

[0107] Equipment for conveying round rubber rolls into bundles.

[0108] After the round rod is pulled out, the strapping equipment mechanically wraps the strapping tape around the round roll of rubber mat and tightens it. The tension of the strapping tape fixes the round roll of rubber mat, thereby fixing its shape and preventing it from spreading during subsequent transportation and handling. Finally, the completed rolled rubber mat is transported to the next process to achieve continuity in the packaging process.

[0109] The round roll is further conveyed to the heat shrink film packaging equipment for heat shrink film packaging;

[0110] Specifically include:

[0111] After each bundle of film is rolled up, it is transported to the next conveyor belt by a lifting conveyor with partitions;

[0112] The lifting conveyor with partitions transports the film from a low place to a high place through a lifting action, and uses the partitions to prevent the film from sliding. After reaching the high place, the film is placed on the next conveyor belt for further transportation, thereby achieving smooth transition and transportation of the film between different conveying equipment.

[0113] At the same time, the conveying direction between the next conveyor belt and the lifting conveyor changes, converting the horizontally arranged rubber pads into vertical arrangements and continuing to convey them;

[0114] By changing the movement direction of the conveyor belt and the function of the guide device, the horizontally arranged rubber pads are gradually converted to vertical arrangement during the conveying process and stable conveying is maintained. The arrangement direction of the rubber pads is thereby adjusted to meet the process requirements of the subsequent heat shrink film packaging equipment.

[0115] The round roll is put into the heat shrink film packaging equipment for heat shrink film packaging;

[0116] After the round roll rubber pad enters the heat shrink film packaging equipment, the equipment automatically completes the heat shrink film wrapping and heating and shrinking operations, so that the heat shrink film is tightly wrapped on the surface of the round roll rubber pad, thereby completing the heat shrink film packaging process of the round roll rubber pad and improving the protective performance of the product.

[0117] The rubber pad after heat shrink film packaging is further transported to the heating furnace for heat shrink film heat sealing and molding.

[0118] The heating furnace provides a high-temperature environment, which allows the heat shrink film to further shrink and melt under high temperature, better integrate with the surface of the rubber pad, form a firm packaging structure, further strengthen the packaging effect of the heat shrink film, ensure that the heat shrink film and the rubber pad are tightly combined, and minimize the space occupied by the product to facilitate subsequent delivery and bagging.

[0119] After heat shrink packaging, the rubber pads are stacked according to a preset number according to the operating parameters of the equipment, and finally the stacked rubber pads are transported to the outer packaging equipment;

[0120] Specifically include:

[0121] The encapsulated and formed round roll rubber pad is transported to the next conveyor belt again through the lifting conveyor with partitions;

[0122] The lifting conveyor with partitions uses partitions to separate the round roll rubber mats to prevent the rubber mats from colliding with each other or sliding during the lifting process, and smoothly transports the rubber mats to the next conveyor belt; thereby achieving smooth transition and transportation of the round roll rubber mats between different conveying equipment.

[0123] After being transported to the outer packaging equipment, the rubber pad is loaded into a courier bag.

[0124] The round roll of rubber cushion enters the outer packaging packaging equipment along the conveyor belt. The equipment opens the express bag through mechanical action and puts the round roll of rubber cushion into the bag. The round roll of rubber cushion is then put into the express bag to prepare for subsequent personalized packaging and transportation.

[0125] The stacked rubber pads are packaged in a personalized manner by the express bag packaging device to obtain personalized bagged rubber pads;

[0126] Specifically include:

[0127] An infrared sensor is set at the entrance of the outer packaging equipment to monitor the number of rubber pads entering the courier bag;

[0128] The infrared sensor emits and receives infrared rays. When a rubber pad passes by, the infrared rays are blocked and the sensor detects the signal change, thereby monitoring the number of rubber pads. In this way, the number of rubber pads entering the express bag can be monitored in real time to ensure the accuracy of the packaging quantity.

[0129] The outer packaging equipment receives the equipment operating parameters of the control system, obtains the specific packaging quantity, and then controls the quantity entering the express bag to meet the required quantity of the rubber pad;

[0130] The control system sends the equipment operating parameters to the outer packaging packaging equipment. The equipment controls the action of the conveying device according to the parameters. When the number of rubber pads entering the express bag reaches the requirement, the conveying is stopped. In this way, the number of rubber pads entering the express bag is accurately controlled according to the order requirements to ensure the packaging quality.

[0131] After being transported, the round rolls of rubber mats entering the courier bag are gradually accumulated. When the required number is reached, the transport is stopped and the opening of the courier bag is sealed to obtain the bagged rubber mats.

[0132] The round rolls of rubber pads are gradually accumulated in the express bag. When the required quantity is reached, the conveying device stops working and the packaging device seals the opening of the express bag by heat sealing or glue sealing, thereby completing the packaging of the express bag and forming a complete bagged rubber pad product.

[0133] The bagged rubber pads are personalized according to the order requirements and the equipment operating parameters.

[0134] Specifically include:

[0135] A printer is set on both sides of the subsequent conveyor belt. The printer receives the operating parameters of the equipment in advance. When the bagged rubber pad passes by, it is detected by the sensor and the personalized pattern required by the order is printed on the surface of the courier bag.

[0136] By printing personalized patterns on the surface of express bags, we can meet the personalized needs of customers. This makes the rubber cushion packaging not only meet personalized requirements, but also does not require manual intervention, significantly improving efficiency and increasing market competitiveness.

[0137] The conveyor belt is also equipped with a pasting machine. Different types of decorations are pre-assembled on the pasting machine. When the bagged rubber pad passes by, it is detected by the sensor. At this time, the decoration that meets the order type and customer requirements is pasted onto the surface of the express bag to complete the personalized customization and obtain a personalized bagged rubber pad.

[0138] By sticking decorations on the surface of the courier bag, the personalization of the product can be further enhanced.

[0139] The personalized bagged rubber pad is continuously conveyed and labeled to obtain the final packaging rubber pad;

[0140] Specifically include:

[0141] After the personalized bagged rubber pad is output from the express bag packaging device, it is continuously transported to the automatic labeling machine;

[0142] The automatic labeling machine receives the equipment operating parameters of the control system in advance, thereby automatically generating a courier number and a rubber pad information label corresponding to the rubber pad;

[0143] The control system sends the equipment operating parameters to the automatic labeling machine. The automatic labeling machine obtains relevant information from the database based on the parameters and generates the corresponding express delivery number and rubber pad information label, thereby ensuring that the automatic labeling machine can generate accurate express delivery number and rubber pad information label that meet the order requirements.

[0144] After aligning an infrared sensor with the personalized bagged rubber pad, the express number and rubber pad information are attached to the express bag of the bagged rubber pad to obtain the final packaging rubber pad.

[0145] The final packaging rubber pads are collected and transported to the shipping area.

[0146] Specifically include:

[0147] The final packaging rubber pad is continuously transported and dropped into a collection box;

[0148] Collect the final packaging cushions into collection boxes for subsequent transportation.

[0149] A pressure sensor is provided in the collection box. When the pressure value reaches a preset value, it indicates that the collection amount has reached the upper limit, and the transportation is stopped at this time;

[0150] Monitor the number of rubber pads in the collection box in real time to prevent the collection box from being overloaded.

[0151] The AGV is notified to transport the collection box to the delivery area, and then the free collection box is moved for collection, and this process is repeated.

[0152] The AGV is a laser SLAM navigation AGV equipped with the following sensors: a laser radar (SICKTiM571, with a scanning range of 270° and an accuracy of ±10mm) and an RFID reader (for key node positioning, with an accuracy of ±5mm). Before transportation, a 2D grid map (with a resolution of 50mm / grid) is generated based on the SLAM algorithm. Path planning is then performed using a global path planning algorithm. The grid map is first preprocessed to divide the environment into a 50mm×50mm grid and mark obstacles (such as shelves and personnel aisles). Manhattan distance is used as a heuristic estimate, and then an open list is used to store nodes to be expanded. The smallest nodes are expanded first, and the expanded nodes are stored in a closed list to avoid repeated calculations, thereby completing path generation. Finally, the generated broken line path is fitted with a Bezier curve (third-order polynomial) to reduce the number of AGV turns.
