Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of tile packaging, in particular to a tile packaging device. Background Art
[0002] Ceramic tiles are a kind of acid- and alkali-resistant porcelain or stone building or decorative material made of refractory metal oxides and semi-metal oxides through grinding, mixing, pressing, glazing and sintering. The raw materials are mostly clay and quartz sand, which are mixed after high temperature and compression, and have very high hardness.
[0003] Currently, during the production process, tiles are often packaged to facilitate subsequent centralized transportation. With the further development of related technologies, fully automated packaging production lines have been developed. These integrate multiple functional modules to automate the entire process, from tile roll-off to final packaging. This type of equipment typically includes a feeder, positioning mechanism, gripping robot, and packaging unit, significantly improving operational efficiency compared to traditional manual or semi-automatic packaging techniques.
[0004] However, one of the main equipment in the current fully automatic packaging production line, namely the tile packaging equipment, still has problems in its hardware structure.

This is difficult for novice operators. Secondly, as for the above-mentioned grabbing method, the grabbing and descending parameters of the robotic arm need to be adjusted accordingly for tiles of different thicknesses.

[0021] Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making any creative work shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0022] See also Figures 1-6 A tile packaging device includes a base 1, a packaging robot arm 2 installed on the top of the base 1, the output end of the packaging robot arm 2 is connected to an I-shaped support 3, a composite suction cup 4 is installed inside the I-shaped support 3, and a spring 18 is installed between the top surface of the composite suction cup 4 and the bottom surface of the I-shaped support 3; The composite suction cup 4 includes a support tube 41, a negative pressure suction cup body 42, and a first air pressure sensor 43. The negative pressure suction cup body 42 is installed at the bottom of the support tube 41 and is spatially connected to the support tube 41. The first air pressure sensor 43 is mounted on the inner side of the top of the support tube 41. The first air pressure sensor 43 can detect the air pressure in the space formed by the support tube 41 and the negative pressure suction cup body 42 in real time, thereby providing the user with technical conditions for understanding the connection strength between the negative pressure suction cup body 42 and the tile 17 after magnetic attraction. The middle part of the support tube body 41 is set as a square tube structure, and the square tube structure is clamped with the bottom structure of the I-shaped support 3 and can be magnetically connected to the magnetic surface of the electromagnet 5. The square structure of the support tube body 41 can increase the magnetic connection area with the electromagnet 5, thereby ensuring the limiting effect after the support tube body 41 is connected to the electromagnet 5; An electromagnet 5 and an air pump 6 are installed at the bottom of the I-shaped support 3. The magnetic surface of the electromagnet 5 can be magnetically connected to the middle surface of the composite suction cup 4. A pipeline structure is installed between the input end of the air pump 6 and the top of the composite suction cup 4. The I-shaped support 3 can absorb the internal space of the composite suction cup 4 through the pipeline structure, so that the composite suction cup 4 enters a negative pressure grasping state. The pipeline structure includes an air guide pipe 7 and a first solenoid valve pipe 8. The air guide pipe 7 includes an annular tube 71 and a threaded hose 72. A support plate is installed between the surface of the annular tube 71 and the surface of the bottom of the I-shaped support 3 to ensure the stability of the annular tube 71 during continuous use. The two ends of the threaded hose 72 are respectively mounted on the top inner side of the support tube body 41 and the inside of the annular tube 71. The threaded hose 72 provides a transitional conveying channel for the annular tube 71 while providing a clearance condition for the displacement of the support tube body 41 relative to the annular tube 71 to avoid structural interference. The two ends of the first solenoid valve pipe 8 are respectively connected to the input end of the suction pump 6 and the inside of the annular tube 71.
[0023] When in use, for the automatic grabbing demand of the tile 17, the packing robot arm 2 is activated, and the packing robot arm 2 horizontally drives the I-shaped support 3 and the structure associated with the I-shaped support 3 to the top of the tile 17 and aligns with the tile 17. Then, the packing robot arm 2 further drives the I-shaped support 3 and the structure associated with the I-shaped support 3 to move downward toward the tile 17 until the bottom port of the negative pressure suction cup body 42 inside the composite suction cup 4 is tightly fitted with the horizontally placed tile 17; In the process of contact between the negative pressure suction cup body 42 and the tile 17, after the negative pressure suction cup body 42 initially contacts the tile 17, in order to ensure the subsequent negative suction effect, the packaging robot arm 2 will further move down a certain distance, while the negative pressure suction cup body 42 is flexibly in contact with the tile 17 under the guidance of the clamping connection between the support tube body 41 and the I-shaped support 3 and the deformation of the spring 18, thereby fully reducing the probability of the composite suction cup 4 breaking the tile 17; Next, the solenoid valve of the first solenoid valve tube 8 and the air suction pump 6 are turned on, and the air suction pump 6 sucks the air between the composite suction cup 4 and the tile 17 through the first solenoid valve tube 8 and the air guide pipe 7, and then actively and quickly creates a negative suction effect at the connection between the negative pressure suction cup body 42 and the tile 17, so that the negative pressure suction cup body 42 negatively sucks and grabs the tile 17. At the same time, the first air pressure sensor 43 reflects the air pressure change during the negative pressure process in real time. When the air pressure reaches the set standard value, it means that the negative pressure suction cup body 42 and the tile 17 are fully negatively sucked and connected. Subsequently, the air suction pump 6 and the solenoid valve of the first solenoid valve tube 8 are closed, and the packaging robot arm 2 is used to directly drive the I-shaped support 3 and the structure associated with the I-shaped support 3 and the tile 17 grabbed by the composite suction cup 4 to move to the next process; After moving to the designated position of the next process, open the solenoid valve of the first solenoid valve tube 8 to ventilate and release the negative pressure space formed by the air guide pipe 7 and the composite suction cup 4. The tile 17 is automatically separated from the composite suction cup 4. For the subsequent grabbing of other tiles 17, repeat the above steps.
[0024] See also Figure 6 The number of composite suction cups 4 is not less than two and is evenly distributed along the circumference of the top structure of the I-shaped support 3 , and the number of threaded hoses 72 is the same as the number of composite suction cups 4 .
[0025] During use, taking into account the grasping strength of the ceramic tile 17, multiple composite suction cups 4 are provided to form multiple negative suction grasping points on the top of the ceramic tile 17, thereby fully ensuring the grasping strength of the ceramic tile 17 and reducing the chance of the ceramic tile 17 falling off during packaging and moving.
[0026] See also Figures 1-8 The outer side of the bottom of the I-shaped support 3 is provided with a hollow ring plate 9, and an auxiliary support plate 10 is installed between the top surface of the hollow ring plate 9 and the bottom surface of the I-shaped support 3. The bottom of the auxiliary support plate 10 is provided with four safety components 11 along its circumference, thereby forming a mechanical anti-falling safety at the bottom of the grabbed tile 17; The safety component 11 includes a guide cylinder 111 and a piston rod 112. One end of the piston rod 112 is clamped inside the guide cylinder 111, and the other end of the piston rod 112 passes through the end surface of one end of the guide cylinder 111 and extends to the bottom inside the hollow ring plate 9. The other end of the guide cylinder 111 is fixedly sleeved inside the hollow ring plate 9, and a positioning block 114 is fixedly nested in the end head of the other end of the guide cylinder 111. A folded spring piece 113 is installed between the surface of the positioning block 114 and the end surface of one end of the piston rod 112. The folded spring piece 113 can provide auxiliary power for the reciprocating movement of the piston rod 112 inside the guide cylinder 111. A transition pad 115 is sleeved on the outer side of the end of the other end of the piston rod 112. The top surface of the transition pad 115 is provided with a plurality of V-shaped grooves to increase the friction between the transition pad 115 and the tile 17, thereby optimizing the shielding effect. The transition pad 115 is made of rubber material to avoid hard contact. The output end and input of the suction pump 6 are respectively connected to the third solenoid valve tube 13 and the second solenoid valve tube 12. One end of the second solenoid valve tube 12 is sleeved on the inner side of the hollow ring plate 9. The top of the hollow ring plate 9 is installed with a fourth solenoid valve tube 15. The set fourth solenoid valve tube 15 can provide a make way channel for the subsequent pressure release of the hollow ring plate 9. The top of the hollow ring plate 9 is provided with an air pressure detection component 14. The air pressure detection component 14 includes a second air pressure sensor 141 and a protective sleeve 142. The bottom of the protective sleeve 142 is fixed on the top structure of the hollow ring plate 9 and communicates with the space of the hollow ring plate 9. The second air pressure sensor 141 is fixedly sleeved on the inner side of the protective sleeve 142.
[0027] During use, taking into account the objective existence of the situation that the negative suction effect fails during the process of moving the tiles 17 by negative suction, the hollow ring plate 9 and related structures are used to adjust the anti-fall insurance of the bottom of the tiles 17 after negative suction. The specific operation is as follows: After the tile 17 is sucked and grabbed by the composite suction cup 4, the closed state of the solenoid valve inside the first solenoid valve tube 8 is maintained, and the solenoid valve inside the third solenoid valve tube 13 and the solenoid valve inside the second solenoid valve tube 12 are opened. After completion, the suction pump 6 is started, and the output end of the suction pump 6 pumps the air in the external environment into the interior of the hollow ring plate 9 through the third solenoid valve tube 13 and the second solenoid valve tube 12. As the air is continuously input into the interior of the hollow ring plate 9, the pressure difference between the air pressure inside the hollow ring plate 9 and the external air pressure will also increase synchronously, thereby causing the insurance component 11 to The internal piston rod 112 is pressed in the corresponding guide cylinder 111 for displacement buffering, and after the piston rod 112 moves to the maximum stroke in the guide cylinder 111, the transition pad 115 provided on the other end of the piston rod 112 will also be located at the bottom of the tile 17. Similarly, the transition pads 115 provided on the other ends of the remaining three piston rods 112 will also be located at the bottom of the tile 17. Thus, the four transition pads 115 form an anti-fall support platform at the bottom of the tile 17, and cooperate with the composite suction cup 4 in the negative suction state to relatively clamp the tile 17 for packaging and transportation. After the tile 17 is moved to above the specified position, the suction pump 6 is turned off and the solenoid valve in the fourth solenoid valve tube 15 is opened to release the pressure inside the hollow ring plate 9. At the same time, the movable structures in the safety component 11 are reset under the elastic force of the folding spring sheet 113, and then the anti-fall support platform is released. Subsequently, the packaging robot arm 2 is used to further move it downward and place it.
[0028] See also Figure 7One end of one guide tube 111 is sleeved with a cleaning assembly 16, and the cleaning assembly 16 consists of a curved extension tube 161 and a hollow air guide plate 162. One end of the curved extension tube 161 is fixedly sleeved on the inner side of one end of the guide tube 111 and communicates with the space of the guide tube 111. The middle part of the hollow air guide plate 162 is sleeved with the other end of the curved extension tube 161, and the side structure of the hollow air guide plate 162 away from the curved extension tube 161 is provided with a plurality of air outlet holes facing the bottom of the composite suction cup 4.
[0029] During use, considering that there may be dust at the position where the tiles 17 are sucked, which may weaken or even fail the suction effect, the cleaning assembly 16 and related structures may be used to pre-clean the tiles 17 before the composite suction cup 4 sucks the air guide pipe 7. The specific operation is as follows: The packing robot arm 2 is activated, and the packing robot arm 2 drives the I-shaped support 3 and the structure associated with the I-shaped support 3 horizontally to the top of the tile 17 and aligns them with the tile 17. Then, the packing robot arm 2 further drives the I-shaped support 3 and the structure associated with the I-shaped support 3 to move downward toward the tile 17. After the air delivery range of the cleaning component 16 can include the top surface of the tile 17, in short, a simple judgment of the specific height can be made by placing the hand on the top surface of the tile 17 and being able to feel the airflow output by the cleaning component 16. At this time, there is a space between the composite suction cup 4 and the tile 17. The packing robot arm 2 is temporarily closed and the height is maintained unchanged at this time. The solenoid valve in the first solenoid valve tube 8 is maintained in the closed state, and the solenoid valve in the third solenoid valve tube 13 and the solenoid valve in the second solenoid valve tube 12 are opened. After completion, the air suction pump 6 is started, and the output end of the air suction pump 6 pumps the air in the external environment into the interior of the hollow ring plate 9 through the third solenoid valve tube 13 and the second solenoid valve tube 12. As the air is continuously input into the interior of the hollow ring plate 9, the pressure difference between the air pressure inside the hollow ring plate 9 and the external air pressure will also increase synchronously, thereby causing the piston rod 112 inside the safety component 11 to be compressed and displaced in the corresponding guide cylinder 111 for buffering. At the same time, the air inside the guide cylinder 111 in which the cleaning component 16 is provided will enter the interior of the hollow air guide plate 162 through the curved extension tube 161, and then be blown from the air outlet provided on the hollow air guide plate 162 to the top surface of the tile 17 for dust removal. After the air blowing and dust removal is completed, the movable structures in the safety component 11 are reset under the elastic force of the folding spring sheet 113, and the packaging robot arm 2 is restarted, and the I-shaped support 3 and the structure associated with the I-shaped support 3 are further driven to move downward toward the tile 17 until the bottom of the composite suction cup 4 is in contact with the top surface of the tile 17, and the solenoid valve in the third solenoid valve tube 13 and the solenoid valve inside the second solenoid valve tube 12 are closed, and the solenoid valve of the first solenoid valve tube 8 and the air pump 6 are opened. The air between the composite suction cup 4 and the tile 17 is sucked by the air pump 6 through the first solenoid valve tube 8 and the air guide pipe 7, and then The connection between the negative pressure suction cup body 42 and the tile 17 actively and quickly creates a negative suction effect, so that the negative pressure suction cup body 42 negatively sucks and grabs the tile 17. At the same time, the first air pressure sensor 43 reflects the air pressure changes in the negative pressure process in real time. When the air pressure reaches the set standard value, it means that the negative pressure suction cup body 42 and the tile 17 are fully negatively sucked and connected. Subsequently, the suction pump 6 and the solenoid valve of the first solenoid valve tube 8 are closed, and the packaging robot arm 2 is used to directly drive the I-shaped support 3 and the structure associated with the I-shaped support 3 and the tile 17 grabbed by the composite suction cup 4 to move to the next process. After moving to the designated position of the next process, the solenoid valve of the first solenoid valve tube 8 is opened to ventilate and release the negative pressure space formed by the air guide pipe 7 and the composite suction cup 4, and the tile 17 is automatically separated from the composite suction cup 4.
[0030] See also Figure 9 The tile 17 packaging control system includes a feeding unit, a positioning unit, a packaging unit and a packaging unit. The feeding unit includes a main support frame and a stainless steel conveyor belt. The positioning unit includes a positioning platform and a sensor installed on the positioning platform. The packaging unit includes a tile 17 packaging device. The packaging unit includes a hot melt glue gun, an electric cutter and a film reel bracket.
[0031] When in use, the main support frame is made of Q235B carbon structural steel with a thickness of not less than 8mm to ensure sufficient rigidity and load-bearing capacity. The sensor on the positioning platform adopts the photoelectric switch model E3Z-LS63 with an accuracy of up to ±0.1mm. The negative pressure suction cup body 42 is made of high-temperature resistant silicone material. First, the feeding device transfers the tiles 17 one by one to the positioning platform. At this time, the sensor on the positioning platform monitors the position information of the tiles 17 in real time and feeds it back to the packaging robot 2 through the control system; When it is confirmed that the tile 17 is in the correct position, the packaging robot arm 2 cooperates with the I-shaped support 3 and related structures to perform negative suction grabbing on the tile 17 according to different situations according to the above steps and smoothly moves the tile 17 to the designated area in the packaging unit. After putting it down, it quickly returns to the initial position to prepare for the next round of operation; Finally, the packaging unit completes the steps of film covering, hot melt adhesive bonding, cutting and sealing in sequence to form a complete package waiting for transportation.
