[0021] like Figure 1-9 As shown, the present invention provides an embodiment: A cotton bale automatic palletizing robot comprises an assembly frame 110, and a power distribution control box 120 is assembled on the side of the assembly frame 110.

[0022] As a more detailed description of this embodiment, the top of the assembly frame 110 is fixedly supported by the central support at the bottom of the top mounting frame 210, and the upper support frame 111 is supported on the side of the top of the assembly frame 110, and the upper end of the upper support frame 111 is supported on all sides of the bottom of the top mounting frame 210. A box support plate 121 is fixedly provided in the middle of the assembly frame 110 to support the power distribution control box 120. The bottom of the assembly frame 110 is also provided with a corresponding lower support frame 112, and the lower support frame 112 is in an outwardly inclined support shape. The lower support frame 112 and the bottom of the assembly frame 110 are respectively fastened to the forks of the forklift 100 by bolts and reinforced by welding.

[0023] In this way, when assembling and using, it is convenient to assemble and limit the auxiliary support of the assembly frame 110, making subsequent operation and use more convenient. It should be noted that the distribution box is equipped with corresponding relays and other control distribution modules, which can be combined and assembled according to actual needs. This is well known to people in this field, so it will not be described here.

[0024] The bottom of the assembly frame 110 supports the forklift 100. The top of the assembly frame 110 supports and mounts a top-mounted assembly 200. A horizontal hoisting assembly 300 is mounted on the side of the top-mounted assembly 200. A horizontal sliding assembly 400 is slidably mounted in the middle of the hoisting assembly 300. A bale grabber 500 for grabbing cotton bales is mounted on the bottom of the horizontal sliding assembly 400. A drive assembly 600 for driving the horizontal sliding assembly 400 is mounted inside the top-mounted assembly 200. A telescopic assembly 700 for pushing and pulling the horizontal sliding assembly 400 is mounted on the side of the top-mounted assembly 200.

[0025] In more detail, the telescopic assembly 700 includes electric telescopic cylinders 710 electrically connected to the power distribution control box 120. The outer walls of two sets of electric telescopic cylinders 710 are supported on either side of the outer wall of the top mounting frame 210 via mounting clamps 711. Corresponding side supports 720 are fixed to either side of the outer wall of the horizontal sliding frame 410. The telescopic ends of the electric telescopic cylinders 710 are supported and assembled to the side supports 720 via bolts.

[0026] In this way, when assembling and using, it is convenient to adjust its horizontal sliding by extending and retracting the electric telescopic cylinder 710 to provide auxiliary support according to the needs of use, making the horizontal sliding component 400 more flexible.

[0027] The top mounting assembly 200 includes a top mounting frame 210 , and the driving assembly 600 is assembled inside the top mounting frame 210 .

[0028] As the present embodiment is more detailed, the drive assembly 600 includes a servo motor 610 electrically connected to the power distribution control box 120, the servo motor 610 output end is equipped with a reducer 620, and the reducer 620 output end is connected and equipped with a transmission shaft 630 through a coupling 621. A worm 640 is sleeved on the middle part of the transmission shaft 630, and a worm wheel 650 is engaged on the side of the worm 640. A screw sleeve 660 is fixed inside the worm wheel 650, and the screw sleeve 660 is threadedly sleeved on the outer wall of the hanging stud 420. The screw sleeve 660 is inserted and assembled at the bottom of the horizontal sliding frame 410, and the bottom of the horizontal sliding frame 410 is provided with a movable through hole corresponding to the screw sleeve 660. The outer wall of the screw sleeve 660 is sleeved and equipped with a bearing support 661, and two groups of bearing supports 661 are supported and assembled inside and outside the bottom wall of the horizontal sliding frame 410.

[0029] In this way, when in use, it is convenient to rotate the lifting stud 420 to drive it to lift; that is, under the power of the reducer 620 and the servo motor 610 to output stable and strong torque, the transmission shaft 630 drives the worm 640 to rotate, thereby driving the worm wheel 650 to rotate, and the worm wheel 650 drives the screw sleeve 660 to rotate to lift the lifting stud 420 with the cooperation of the thread, making the lifting operation more convenient and stable; at the same time, under the self-locking principle of the worm wheel 650 and the worm 640, when they stop rotating, it is convenient to lock the worm wheel 650 and the screw sleeve 660, so as not to cause instability after lifting.

[0030] As a more detailed description of this embodiment, both ends of the worm 640 are supported by bearing brackets 641, and the bearing brackets 641 are supported on the inner bottom wall of the horizontal sliding frame 410; an inner sleeve seat 651 is fixed to the upper part of the outer wall of the screw sleeve 660, and the inner sleeve seat 651 is hexagonal; an inner sleeve groove 652 corresponding to the inner sleeve seat 651 is opened on the inner wall of the worm wheel 650, and the worm wheel 650 is sleeved on the inner sleeve seat 651 and fastened by screws.

[0031] In this way, during assembly and use, it is convenient to stably support the worm 640 and the screw sleeve 660, making subsequent transmission more stable and convenient.

[0032] As a more detailed description of this embodiment, both ends of the transmission shaft 630 are also supported by sleeves with seat bearings 631. The two sets of seat bearings 631 are respectively supported and assembled inside the front end side wall of the lifting assembly 300 and the side wall of the top mounting frame 210. Three sets of limit strips 632 are evenly and horizontally arranged on the outer wall of the transmission shaft 630, and the inner wall of the worm 640 is provided with a limit slot 633 corresponding to the limit strip 632 and the transmission shaft 630.

[0033] In this way, when assembled and used, it is convenient to transmit according to the needs of use; that is, with the cooperation of the limit bar 632, it is convenient to cooperate with the transmission shaft 630 to drive the rotation of the worm 640. At the same time, with the opening of the limit slot 633, it does not hinder the horizontal sliding between the worm 640 and the transmission shaft 630, and does not hinder the horizontal movement of the worm 640 following the horizontal sliding frame 410, making operation and use more convenient.

[0034] The hanging assembly 300 includes a horizontal frame 310 , and the horizontal frame 310 is fixed horizontally to the side of the top mounting frame 210 , and a sliding beam 320 is fixed parallel to the bottom of the horizontal frame 310 .

[0035] As a more detailed description of this embodiment, a vertical frame 311 is integrally provided on the upper side of the top mounting frame 210 , and a reinforcing rib 312 is provided to connect and support the top of the vertical frame 311 and the upper surface of the front end of the horizontal frame 310 .

[0036] In this way, the stable support of the cross frame 310 and the sliding beam 320 is strengthened, making the subsequent lifting of the cotton bales more stable.

[0037] As a more detailed description of this embodiment, a corresponding counterweight frame 220 is integrally provided at one side end of the top mounting frame 210 away from the horizontal frame 310 , and a counterweight block 221 is assembled inside the counterweight frame 220 .

[0038] In this way, the balance of both sides of the top mounting frame 210 is facilitated, so that when the horizontal frame 310 and the sliding beam 320 cooperate with the horizontal sliding frame 410 to hoist the cotton bale, the relative counterweight on the other side of the top mounting frame 210 is maintained, thereby preventing the assembly frame 110 from tilting.

[0039] The horizontal sliding assembly 400 includes a horizontal sliding frame 410, and the upper side wall of the horizontal sliding frame 410 is slidably mounted on the outer wall of the sliding beam 320, and the bottom of the horizontal sliding frame 410 is correspondingly inserted and assembled with a lifting stud 420, an auxiliary slide 430 and a limiting slide 440, and a lifting plate 450 is fixed at the bottom of the lifting stud 420, the auxiliary slide 430 and the limiting slide 440, and the grabbing claw 500 is fixed at the bottom of the lifting plate 450.

[0040] As a more detailed description of this embodiment, the hanging stud 420 is located in the center of the horizontal sliding frame 410, the auxiliary slide 430 is located at the rear side of the horizontal sliding frame 410, and two sets of limit slides 440 are located at the front side of the horizontal sliding frame 410. The bottom wall of the horizontal sliding frame 410 is respectively provided with through holes corresponding to the auxiliary slide 430 and the limit slides 440. The rear side of the outer bottom wall of the horizontal sliding frame 410 is equipped with an auxiliary fixed foot 431 corresponding to the auxiliary slide 430, and the side wall of the auxiliary fixed foot 431 is equipped with a proximity switch 432 electrically connected to the power distribution control box 120. The side wall of the auxiliary slide 430 is equipped with a metal sheet 433 corresponding to the proximity switch 432, and the side wall of the auxiliary slide 430 is evenly provided with insertion slots 434 corresponding to the metal sheet 433 from top to bottom.

[0041] This facilitates the positioning of the hoisting plate 450 during assembly and use; that is, when the hoisting stud 420, in conjunction with the screw sleeve 660, is raised under the action of the thread, the position-limiting block provided by the auxiliary slide 430 and the limiting slide bar 440 prevents the hoisting plate 450 from rotating along with the hoisting stud 420, thereby making subsequent operation more stable. Furthermore, the proximity switch 432 and the metal sheet 433 facilitate the raising and lowering of the auxiliary slide 430 by transmitting a signal when the metal sheet 433 and the proximity switch 432 are in proximity, thereby facilitating the determination of the raising and lowering position and making subsequent operation more convenient.

[0042] As a more detailed description of this embodiment, the bag grabbing claw 500 includes an assembly beam 510, and a rear support plate 511 is integrally provided at the rear end of the assembly beam 510, and an assembly vertical plate 451 is fixedly provided at the bottom of the lifting plate 450, and the rear support plate 511 is supported and assembled on the side of the assembly vertical plate 451, and a side support plate 512 is supported and assembled between the assembly vertical plate 451 and the rear support plate 511. The assembly beam 510 is hingedly assembled with a right clamping arm 520 and a left clamping arm 530 on the left and right sides respectively through a right hinge shaft 521 and a left hinge shaft 531, and the assembly beam 510 is provided with an electrically controlled telescopic part 540 electrically connected to the power distribution control box 120 on the upper and lower sides, and the electrically controlled telescopic part 540 includes a telescopic cylinder 1 541 and a telescopic cylinder 2 542, and the telescopic ends of the telescopic cylinder 1 541 and the telescopic cylinder 2 542 are symmetrically arranged in opposite directions, and the telescopic cylinder 1 541 and the telescopic cylinder 2 542 are correspondingly inserted and assembled at both ends. The right push rod 550 and the left push rod 560 are respectively fixed on the rear end of the right clamping arm 520 and the rear end of the left clamping arm 530; the above-mentioned electrically controlled telescopic part 540 can also be controlled by only one set of telescopic cylinders 541, that is, the telescopic end of the telescopic cylinder 541 is sleeved on the outer wall of the right push rod 550, and the rear end of the outer wall of the telescopic cylinder 541 is sleeved on the outer wall of the left push rod 560. The electrically controlled telescopic part 540 has two groups of implementation methods for setting, which is convenient for selection according to usage needs.

[0043] Thus, during use, when telescopic cylinder 1 541 and telescopic cylinder 2 542 are used for combined pushing and pulling, the telescopic ends of telescopic cylinder 1 541 and telescopic cylinder 2 542 respectively contact the right push rod 550 and the left push rod 560, and the rear ends of the outer walls of the two sets of telescopic cylinders also simultaneously contact the corresponding right push rod 550 and left push rod 560, respectively, thereby achieving the opening and clamping of the right clamping arm 520 and the left clamping arm 530, thereby making the opening and clamping more stable. When using a single telescopic cylinder 1 541, the telescopic end of telescopic cylinder 1 541 contacts the right push rod 550, and the rear end of its outer wall contacts the left push rod 560, also achieving the opening and clamping of the right clamping arm 520 and the left clamping arm 530. The above embodiments can all be achieved by manipulating the extension and retraction of the telescopic cylinder 1 541 and the telescopic cylinder 2 542, so that under the hinge connection of the right hinge shaft 521 and the left hinge shaft 531, the right clamping arm 520 and the left clamping arm 530 are driven to open or clamp by pushing and pulling the corresponding left push rod 560 and the right push rod 550, thereby facilitating the grabbing and releasing of the cotton bales, which is beneficial to subsequent operations and stacking.

[0044] Working principle: When assembled and used, the corresponding electrical components are connected to the distribution control box 120 through the corresponding data and lines, and the electrical control module inside the distribution control box 120 is set as needed. Specifically, the corresponding relays or PLC programming control can be assembled according to actual needs. Different needs require different assembly, which is well known to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail here. When the cotton bales need to be palletized, the forklift 100 is driven to the location where the cotton bales need to be palletized. The servo motor 610 is controlled, and in cooperation with the reducer 620, a series of transmissions are transmitted through the transmission shaft 630, the worm 640, the worm gear 650 and the screw sleeve 660, thereby driving the lifting stud 420 to descend. Subsequently, the right clamping arm 520 and the left clamping arm 530 are relatively opened and closed with the cooperation of the telescopic cylinder 2 542 and the telescopic cylinder 1 541, thereby clamping the cotton bales. The servo motor 610 is reversed to drive the lifting stud 420 to rise, thereby facilitating the lifting of the cotton bales. Furthermore, the forklift 100 is driven to the stacking position, and the cotton bales are lifted and released in the same manner to complete the stacking operation of the cotton bales. At the same time, the cotton bales can be slid horizontally according to the needs of inside and outside stacking during stacking, making the stacking operation more convenient.

[0045] During operation, the electric telescopic cylinder 710 drives the horizontal sliding frame 410 to slide horizontally under the support of the sliding beam 320, thereby driving the cotton bale to move horizontally and adjust the placement position under the cooperation of the lifting stud 420, the lifting plate 450 and the bag grabbing claw 500.

[0046] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the present invention in any form. Any ordinary technician in this industry can smoothly implement the present invention as shown in the drawings and described above. However, any equivalent changes, modifications and evolutions made by technicians familiar with this profession without departing from the scope of the technical solution of the present invention using the technical content disclosed above are all equivalent embodiments of the present invention. At the same time, any equivalent changes, modifications and evolutions made to the above embodiments based on the essential technology of the present invention are still within the scope of protection of the technical solution of the present invention.
