Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of bagging equipment technology, and particularly to a bagging device and a laptop computer production line. Background Technology

[0002] Consumer electronics products require packaging bags when they leave the factory. Existing bagging equipment usually uses a flaring mechanism to open the opening of the packaging bag before inserting the product. In this solution, the flaring mechanism needs to extend into the inside of the opening of the packaging bag. During the product insertion process, it needs to avoid the flaring mechanism. This means that the opening design of the packaging bag needs to allow for the insertion of the flaring mechanism. This cannot meet the bagging requirements when the gap between the product and the packaging bag is small (where the product interferes with the flaring mechanism). Summary of the Invention

[0003] This invention aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. To this end, this invention proposes a bagging device and a laptop computer production line, which can automatically open the opening of the packaging bag under gravity through the bag-loading module, and adjust the product position and angle during product insertion with the clamping and adjustment module, so as to realize the assembly of the product and the packaging bag without the need for an expansion mechanism.

[0004] On one hand, embodiments of the present invention provide a bagging device for inserting a plate-shaped product into a packaging bag, the packaging bag comprising an upper skin and a lower skin connected on three sides, and a sealing flap connected to the open end of the lower skin, comprising:

[0005] The bag-feeding module includes a clamping and adjusting module and a pushing module. The clamping and adjusting module includes an X-axis moving component, a Y-axis moving component, a Z-axis rotating component, and a clamping component. The X-axis moving component, the Y-axis moving component, and the Z-axis rotating component are adapted to drive the clamping component to move and rotate. The pushing module includes a push plate that can move along the Y-axis and is adapted to push the product.

[0006] The upper bag module is located downstream of the bag inlet module along the Y direction. The upper bag module includes a bag retrieval module, which includes multiple flat suction nozzles adapted to adsorb the upper skin.

[0007] The bag-feeding module is adapted to switch sequentially between a pre-feeding state, a partial feeding state, and a bagging state. The pre-feeding state is when the clamping assembly rotates around the Z-axis by a set angle and deviates from the axis of the packaging bag by a set distance in the X-direction, so that one apex corner of the product can be inserted into the packaging bag in the Y-direction. The partial feeding state is when one apex corner of the first end of the product is inserted into the packaging bag, the clamping assembly retracts by the set distance, and the product rotates back by the set angle, so that the two apex corners of the first end of the product enter the packaging bag. The bagging state is when the clamping assembly releases the product, and the pusher plate pushes the product into the packaging bag.

[0008] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the clamping assembly includes a clamping base plate and a rotating pressure head, the clamping base plate being adapted to support a second end of the product, and the rotating pressure head being adapted to press against the product;

[0009] The bag-feeding module also includes a lifting support plate that moves up and down along the Z direction. The lifting support plate is disposed along the Y direction between the clamping base plate and the upper bag module, and is positioned below the moving path of the product, suitable for supporting the product.

[0010] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the bagging device further includes a sealing module and a first conveying module, wherein the first conveying module connects the sealing module and the bag-loading module;

[0011] The first conveying module includes an assembly fixture and a fixture driving assembly. The fixture driving assembly is adapted to drive the assembly fixture to move and switch between a bagging station and a labeling station. The bagging station is located below the upper bag module.

[0012] The sealing module includes a sealing flap mechanism and a labeling module. The sealing flap mechanism includes a first sealing plate that can move along the Z direction and a second sealing plate that can move along the Y direction. The assembly fixture has a clearance opening to avoid the movement path of the first sealing plate. The first sealing plate is adapted to bend the sealing flap upward along the Z direction, and the second sealing plate is adapted to bend the sealing flap after being bent by the first sealing plate along the Y direction, such that the sealing flap, when projected along the Z direction, at least partially covers the upper skin.

[0013] The labeling module includes a label handling mechanism and a label loading mechanism. The label handling mechanism picks up and carries the labels loaded by the label loading mechanism, and transfers the labels to the product located at the labeling station, where they are affixed to the sealing tongue and the upper skin.

[0014] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the fixture driving assembly includes a fixture driving member and a translation base, wherein the assembly fixture is slidably connected to the translation base;

[0015] The assembly fixture includes a first assembly fixture and a second assembly fixture. The first assembly fixture includes a first loading platform and a first translation plate. The first translation plate is slidably connected to the translation base, and the first loading platform is slidably connected to the first translation plate along the Z direction. The second assembly fixture includes a second loading platform, and the second loading platform is slidably connected to the translation base.

[0016] The first loading platform is adapted to switch between a lifting state and a lowering state. The lifting state is when the first loading platform and the second loading platform are at the same height along the Z direction. The lowering state is when the height of the first loading platform along the Z direction is lower than the height of the second loading platform, so as to avoid the movement of the second loading platform.

[0017] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the translation base is provided with a guide groove extending along the translation direction of the first assembly fixture, and the first loading platform is provided with a guide portion that slides with the guide groove;

[0018] The guide groove includes two lifting sections, one lowering section, and two transition sections. The two lifting sections are located at both ends of the lowering section and are connected to the lowering section through one of the transition sections. The height of the lifting section along the Z direction is higher than the height of the lowering section. In the lifting state, the guide part cooperates with the lifting section; in the lowering state, the guide part cooperates with the lowering section.

[0019] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the upper bag module further includes a bag opening and flap mechanism disposed at one end of the bag taking module facing the bag feeding module. The bag opening and flap mechanism includes a bag opening and flap plate movable up and down in the Z direction and a limiting plate movable in the Y direction. The bag opening and flap plate is adapted to bend part of the sealing tongue downward in the Z direction, and the remaining sealing tongue is attached to the first conveying module. The limiting plate is disposed below the lower surface and is adapted to press against the bent part of the sealing tongue in the Y direction. According to some embodiments of the present invention, the pushing module further includes a Z-direction pushing drive and a Y-direction pushing drive. The Z-direction pushing drive is adapted to drive the push plate to move up and down in the Z direction, and the Y-direction pushing drive is adapted to drive the push plate to move in the Y direction.

[0020] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the bagging equipment further includes a loading and unloading conveyor belt, a loading and unloading mechanism, and an unloading and unloading mechanism. The loading and unloading conveyor belt is provided with loading stations and unloading stations arranged sequentially along its conveying direction. The loading and unloading conveyor belt is provided with a carrier tray that carries the product.

[0021] The loading and conveying mechanism is connected to the carrier tray at the bagging station and the assembly fixture at the loading station, and the unloading and conveying mechanism is connected to the assembly fixture at the labeling station and the carrier tray at the unloading station.

[0022] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the bagging device further includes a return conveyor belt, which is parallel to and positioned below the loading and unloading conveyor belt, and is adapted to return the carrier tray to the upstream device.

[0023] On the other hand, embodiments of the present invention also provide a notebook computer production line, including the bagging equipment described above.

[0024] The embodiments of the present invention have at least the following beneficial effects: the suction nozzle of the bag-picking module enables the packaging bag to open automatically under gravity; the rotation and movement provided by the clamping and adjustment module allow the product to be inserted from the larger part of the opening (close to the central axis) with a apex angle; then, through the X-axis movement and Z-axis rotation of the clamping component, the edge of the product's apex angle naturally expands the opening of the packaging bag like a wedge. The whole process is more guided and fault-tolerant. Even if the initial opening is not perfect, it can be straightened out during the movement of the product, thereby improving the success rate of bagging; moreover, this solution completely avoids the flaring step of the flaring mechanism in traditional equipment, cleverly using the rigidity and apex angle of the product itself to guide and naturally open the packaging bag, reducing the size of the equipment while effectively adapting to the bagging requirements with small gaps between the product and the packaging bag.

[0044] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 as well as Figure 7 As shown, in one aspect, an embodiment of the present invention provides a bagging device for inserting a plate-shaped product into a packaging bag. The packaging bag includes an upper skin and a lower skin connected on three sides, and a sealing tongue connected to the open end of the lower skin.

[0045] The bagging device includes a bag-feeding module 100 and a bag-upping module 200. The bag-feeding module 100 includes a clamping adjustment module 110 and a pushing module 120. The clamping adjustment module 110 includes an X-axis moving component 111, a Y-axis moving component 112, a Z-axis rotating component 113, and a clamping component 114. The X-axis moving component 111, the Y-axis moving component 112, and the Z-axis rotating component 113 are adapted to drive the clamping component 114 to move and rotate. The pushing module 120 includes a pusher plate 121 that can move along the Y-axis and is adapted to push the product. The bag-upping module 200 is located downstream of the bag-feeding module 100 along the Y-axis. The bag-upping module 200 includes a bag-removing module 210. The bag-removing module 210 includes... Multiple flat suction nozzles 211 are suitable for adsorbing the upper surface of the product. The bag-feeding module 100 is adapted to switch sequentially between a pre-bag-feeding state, a partial bag-feeding state, and a bag-filling state. In the pre-bag-feeding state, the clamping component 114 rotates around the Z-axis by a set angle and deviates from the axis of the packaging bag by a set distance in the X-direction, so that one apex of the product can be inserted into the packaging bag in the Y-direction. In the partial bag-feeding state, one apex of the first end of the product is inserted into the packaging bag, the clamping component 114 retracts by a set distance, and the product rotates back by a set angle, so that the two apex of the first end of the product enter the packaging bag. In the bag-filling state, the clamping component 114 releases the product, and the pusher plate 121 pushes the product into the packaging bag.

[0046] According to the bagging device of the present invention, firstly, the suction nozzle 211 of the upper bag module 200 adsorbs the upper surface of the packaging bag. Under the action of gravity, the opening between the upper and lower surfaces of the packaging bag is spindle-shaped. At the same time, the product is clamped by the clamping component 114 of the bag-entry module 100. The clamping adjustment module 110 drives the clamping component 114 to move through the X-axis moving component 111 and the Y-axis moving component 112, while the Z-axis rotation component 113 drives the clamping component 114 to rotate, so that the product enters the pre-bag-entry state. In this state, the clamping component 114 rotates around the Z-axis by a set angle ( Figure 7 The median angle α), and a distance is set along the X direction away from the axis of the packaging bag ( Figure 7 (At a distance L), so that one apex of the product aligns with the opening of the packaging bag and can be inserted into the packaging bag along the Y direction. Next, the product enters the partial bag-feeding state, with one apex of the product inserted into the packaging bag a certain distance ( Figure 7 At a distance H, the clamping component 114 retracts a set distance along the X-axis, while the product rotates back a set angle around the Z-axis. This ensures that both apex corners of the product's first end (i.e., the insertion end) rotate into the packaging bag, guaranteeing that the first end of the product is enclosed within the bag. Finally, the product enters the bagged state, the clamping component 114 releases the product, and simultaneously, the pusher plate 121 of the pusher module 120 moves along the Y-axis, pushing the product into the packaging bag, completing the bagging process.

[0047] It should be noted that existing bagging equipment typically uses a flaring mechanism to open the packaging bag to facilitate product insertion. This flaring mechanism needs to extend inside the bag's opening, and the product must avoid contact with it during insertion. This requires the bag's opening design to allow for the insertion of the flaring mechanism, resulting in a large discrepancy between the bag's volume and the product's volume after the flaring mechanism is inserted. This leads to poor packaging aesthetics and significant material waste. On the other hand, while a bag with an opening slightly larger than the product may look better, the product cannot be bagged after the flaring mechanism is inserted, making automated bagging impossible.

[0048] According to the bagging device of the present invention, the suction nozzle 211 of the bag picking module 210 enables the packaging bag to open automatically under gravity. The rotation and movement provided by the clamping adjustment module 110 enable the product to be inserted from the larger part of the opening (close to the central axis) with a apex angle. Then, through the X-axis movement and Z-axis rotation of the clamping component 114, the edge of the apex angle of the product naturally expands the opening of the packaging bag like a wedge. The whole process is more guiding and fault-tolerant. Even if the initial opening is not perfect, it can be straightened out during the movement of the product, thereby improving the success rate of bagging. Moreover, this solution completely avoids the flaring step of the flaring mechanism in traditional equipment. It cleverly uses the rigidity and apex angle of the product itself to guide and naturally open the packaging bag, reducing the size of the equipment while effectively adapting to the bagging requirements with small gaps between the product and the packaging bag.

[0049] In this embodiment, combined with Figure 7 As shown, the product is represented by a solid red line, and the packaging bag by a solid black line. The setting angle (α in the figure), setting distance (L in the figure), and insertion depth (H in the figure) can be adjusted to adapt to different product sizes and packaging bags, and no specific numerical limits are specified here.

[0050] In this embodiment, the bag-loading module 200 further includes a hopper mechanism 230 for storing packaging bags. The bag-retrieving module 210 further includes a bag-retrieving drive assembly 212, adapted to drive the suction nozzle 211 to move and pick up the packaging bags from the hopper mechanism 230 for bagging. The bag-retrieving drive assembly 212 can be a combination of multiple linear modules (slide module, lead screw module, etc.) or a robotic arm, which can realize the movement of the suction nozzle 211 in three-dimensional space.

[0051] In this embodiment, the feeding module 120 further includes a feeding drive component 122 for driving the pusher plate 121 to move.

[0052] In some embodiments, combined with Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the clamping assembly 114 includes a clamping base plate 1141 and a rotating pressure head 1142. The clamping base plate 1141 is adapted to support the second end of the product, and the rotating pressure head 1142 is adapted to press against the product. The bag inlet module 100 also includes a lifting support plate 130 that moves up and down along the Z direction. The lifting support plate 130 is disposed along the Y direction between the clamping base plate 1141 and the upper bag module 200, and is positioned below the product's movement path to support the product.

[0053] In this embodiment, the second end of the product is held by the rotating pressure head 1142, while the lifting support plate 130 provides support for the product from below during movement. Working together with the holding end, the rigidity, stability and smooth movement of the product in the complex bagging trajectory are ensured, thereby significantly improving the reliability and success rate of the bagging process.

[0054] In this embodiment, the driving source for the lifting support plate 130 can be a cylinder, or it can be a lead screw module, a slide module, a worm gear, etc.

[0055] In some embodiments, combined with Figure 1 and Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the bagging equipment also includes a sealing module 400 and a first conveying module 300. The first conveying module 300 connects the sealing module 400 and the bag-loading module 200. The first conveying module 300 includes an assembly fixture 310 and a fixture driving assembly 320. The fixture driving assembly 320 is adapted to drive the assembly fixture 310 to move and switch between the bagging station and the labeling station. The bagging station is located below the bag-loading module 200. The sealing module 400 includes a sealing flap mechanism 410 and a labeling module 420. The sealing flap mechanism 410 includes a first sealing plate 411 that can move along the Z direction and a second sealing plate 411 that can move along the Y direction. The second sealing plate 412 and the assembly fixture 310 have a clearance opening 311 to avoid the movement path of the first sealing plate 411. The first sealing plate 411 is adapted to bend the sealing tongue upward in the Z direction, and the second sealing plate 412 is adapted to bend the sealing tongue after being bent by the first sealing plate 411 in the Y direction, so that the orthographic projection of the sealing tongue in the Z direction at least partially covers the upper surface. The labeling module 420 includes a label handling mechanism 421 and a labeling mechanism 422. The label handling mechanism 421 absorbs and handles the label fed by the labeling mechanism 422, and transfers the label to the product located above the labeling station, and affixes it to the sealing tongue and the upper surface.

[0056] In this embodiment, the bagged product is transported from the bagging station to the labeling station by the first conveying module 300. The first sealing plate 411 of the sealing and flap mechanism 410 bends the flap upward along the Z direction, and then the second sealing plate 412 bends the flap along the Y direction, completing the Z-direction bending and Y-direction pressing of the flap, so that the flap closes the opening of the packaging bag and covers the upper surface. Subsequently, the label handling mechanism 421 of the labeling module 420 transports the label fed by the labeling mechanism 422 and affixes it to the flap and the upper surface. The three major processes of bagging, flap sealing and labeling are seamlessly connected. In the continuous flow without manual intervention, the overall packaging efficiency and the consistency of the sealing appearance are significantly improved.

[0057] In this embodiment, the first conveying module 300 is used to support the bagged product to prevent the packaging bag from detaching from the suction nozzle 211 due to the product's own weight during the bagging process or when the bag is in contact with the nozzle.

[0058] In some embodiments, combined with Figure 6 As shown, the jig drive assembly 320 includes a jig drive 321 and a translation base 322, and the assembly jig 310 is slidably connected to the translation base 322. The assembly jig 310 includes a first assembly jig 312 and a second assembly jig 313. The first assembly jig 312 includes a first loading platform 3121 and a first translation plate 3122. The first translation plate 3122 is slidably connected to the translation base 322, and the first loading platform 3121 is slidably connected to the first translation plate 3122 along the Z-direction. The second assembly fixture 313 includes a second loading platform 3131, which is slidably connected to the translation base 322. The first loading platform 3121 is adapted to switch between a lifting state and a lowering state. In the lifting state, the first loading platform 3121 and the second loading platform 3131 are at the same height along the Z direction. In the lowering state, the height of the first loading platform 3121 along the Z direction is lower than the height of the second loading platform 3131 to avoid movement of the second loading platform 3131.

[0059] In this embodiment, the first assembly fixture 312 and the second assembly fixture 313 can be located at the bagging station and the labeling station, respectively, realizing parallel and continuous operation of bagging and labeling: when the first material carrier 3121 is in the lifting state and receiving materials at the bagging station, the second material carrier 3131 can simultaneously label at the labeling station; subsequently, driven by the fixture drive 321, the first material carrier 3121 and the second material carrier 3131 exchange and move. During the exchange process, the first material carrier 3121 descends to the lowered state to avoid the movement of the second material carrier 3131. The two alternately carry products and circulate, thereby eliminating the waiting time between processes and greatly improving the overall production efficiency and cycle time of the equipment.

[0060] In some embodiments, combined with Figure 6As shown, the translation base 322 is provided with a guide groove 3221 extending along the translation direction of the first assembly fixture 312, and the first loading platform 3121 is provided with a guide part (not shown in the figure) that slides with the guide groove 3221. The guide groove 3221 includes two lifting sections 32211, one lowering section 32212, and two transition sections 32213. The two lifting sections 32211 are located at both ends of the lowering section 32212 and are respectively connected to the lowering section 32212 through a transition section 32213. The height of the lifting section 32211 along the Z direction is higher than the height of the lowering section 32212. In the lifting state, the guide part cooperates with the lifting section 32211; in the lowering state, the guide part cooperates with the lowering section 32212.

[0061] In this embodiment, the lifting and translation of the first loading platform 3121 are achieved through the sliding engagement of the guide portion of the first loading platform 3121 with the guide groove 3221 of a specific contour: when the first assembly fixture 312 moves on the translation base 322, its guide portion slides along the guide groove 3221, automatically maintaining the first loading platform 3121 in the lifting state during the lifting section 32211 to receive materials or wait; when smoothly transitioning from the transition section 32213 to the lowering section 32212, the first loading platform 3121 automatically descends to the lowering state, thereby precisely making room for the movement of the second assembly fixture 313. The mechanical interlock design eliminates the need for independent lifting drive components, which not only simplifies the control logic but also ensures the stable, reliable, and efficient operation of the dual fixture cycle process through precise timing coordination.

[0062] In other embodiments, the lifting drive of the first loading platform 3121 can also be achieved by a cylinder, a lead screw module, a slide module, etc.

[0063] In some embodiments, combined with Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the upper bag module 200 also includes a bag opening and flap mechanism 220, which is disposed at one end of the bag taking module 210 facing the bag feeding module 100. The bag opening and flap mechanism 220 includes a bag opening and flap plate 221 that can move up and down in the Z direction and a limiting plate 222 that can move in the Y direction. The bag opening and flap plate 221 is adapted to bend part of the sealing tongue downward in the Z direction, and the remaining sealing tongue is attached to the first conveying module 300. The limiting plate 222 is disposed below the lower surface and is adapted to press and limit the bent part of the sealing tongue in the Y direction.

[0064] In this embodiment, the upper surface of the packaging bag is adsorbed by the suction nozzle 211, while the lower surface and the sealing tongue hang down naturally under gravity. The opening flap 221 bends part of the sealing tongue along the Z direction, and the bent part of the sealing tongue is pressed and limited by the limiting plate 222 along the Y direction. By actively bending part of the sealing tongue downward and using the limiting plate 222 to accurately fix it, a smooth entry channel is made for the product before bagging, effectively avoiding the sealing tongue from rebounding, wrinkling, or interfering with the product during the bagging process, ensuring the smoothness and high success rate of the bagging action, and at the same time preparing a flat and regular sealing surface for the subsequent sealing process.

[0065] In this embodiment, the driving source for the bag opening flap 221 and the limiting plate 222 can be a cylinder, or it can be a lead screw module, a slide module, a worm gear, etc.

[0066] In some embodiments, combined with Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the material pushing module 120 also includes a material pushing drive assembly 122, which includes a Z-axis material pushing drive component 1221 and a Y-axis material pushing drive component 1222. The Z-axis material pushing drive component 1221 is adapted to drive the push plate 121 to move up and down along the Z-axis, and the Y-axis material pushing drive component 1222 is adapted to drive the push plate 121 to move along the Y-axis.

The unloading and handling mechanism 530 is connected to the assembly fixture 310 of the labeling station and the carrier tray 511 of the unloading station.

[0070] In this embodiment, the loading and unloading conveyor belt 510 is responsible for the continuous supply of the tray 511 and the removal of finished products, while the loading and unloading conveyor mechanism 520 and the unloading conveyor mechanism 530 precisely connect the loading and unloading conveyor belt 510 with the bagging station and the labeling station, realizing the automatic transfer of products between the tray 511 and the assembly fixture 310, which significantly improves the automation level and operating efficiency of the entire line.

[0071] In this embodiment, the loading and unloading mechanism 520 and the unloading and transport mechanism 530 can be a combination of a robotic arm and several linear modules (slide module, lead screw module, etc.) to achieve movement and transport in three-dimensional space.

[0072] In some embodiments, combined with Figure 1 As shown, the bagging equipment also includes a return conveyor belt 540, which is parallel to and positioned below the loading and unloading conveyor belt 510, and is suitable for returning the load tray 511 to the upstream equipment.

[0073] In this embodiment, workers or a handling mechanism move the carrier on the unloading station to the return conveyor belt 540 below, where it is stably transported back to the upstream equipment for reuse. By optimizing the material flow path, the overall space utilization rate and the cycle time of continuous production are significantly improved.
