A second clamping cylinder is provided on the second clamping cylinder mounting plate, and the second clamping cylinder controls two third clamping arms to clamp the color box.

6. The color box palletizing equipment according to claim 1, characterized in that, The color box flipping and unloading robot includes a Y-axis servo module, a second X-axis servo module, and a second Z-axis servo module. The Y-axis servo module controls the movement of the second X-axis servo module, the second X-axis servo module controls the movement of the second Z-axis servo module, and the second Z-axis servo module controls the lifting and lowering movement of a lifting side plate. The lifting side plate is equipped with a flipping motor, which controls the rotation of a third clamping cylinder mounting plate. The third clamping cylinder mounting plate is equipped with a third clamping cylinder, which controls two sets of clamping blocks to clamp the color box. Each clamping block has anti-slip teeth on its clamping surface.

7. The color box palletizing equipment according to claim 1, characterized in that, The color box transfer and lateral movement module includes a transfer bracket, a second transfer drive is provided on the transfer bracket, the second transfer drive controls a slide to move, a displacement control cylinder is provided at one end of the slide, and color box clamping cylinders are provided on both sides of the slide respectively. The displacement control cylinder controls two color box stacking brackets to move laterally, and both color box stacking brackets are slidably connected to the slide through a slide rail and a slider.
