Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of stacking equipment technology, and in particular to an intelligent raw material conveying and stacking device for a cotton grabber. Background Technology
[0002] Currently in the textile industry, the raw material stacking process before the operation of the cotton grabber mainly relies on manual operation of forklifts. Workers drive forklifts to move cotton piles from the raw material storage area and transport them one by one to the stacking areas on both sides of the cotton grabber. After manually adjusting the position, they are stacked to form a raw material pile for the cotton grabber to grab.
[0003] During the stacking process, the entire "material picking-transportation-positioning-stacking" process requires manual intervention. Due to the operator's skill level and fatigue, the turnover efficiency is low, the stacking time is long, and it is difficult to ensure the flatness and spacing of the stack, which affects the opening effect of the cotton grabber on the raw materials.
[0004] Therefore, this application provides an intelligent raw material conveying and stacking device for a cotton grabber. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this application is to solve at least one technical problem raised in the background art.
[0006] This application provides an intelligent raw material conveying and stacking device for a cotton grabber, including a working area, a conveying mechanism, a stacking mechanism, and a carrying mechanism. The working area consists of the cotton grabber body and a first and a second cotton stacking platform disposed on the front and back of the cotton grabber body. The conveying mechanism includes a conveying frame, a first and a second belt roller rotatably mounted on the inner wall of the conveying frame, a first motor fixedly mounted on the front of the conveying frame for driving the first belt roller to rotate, and a conveyor belt for driving the first and second belt rollers. The stacking mechanism includes a U-shaped ground rail, an AGV trolley disposed on the U-shaped ground rail, and a clamping component disposed above the AGV trolley. The U-shaped ground rail is laid along the perimeter of the working area. The carrying mechanism includes a base, a support frame rotatably mounted on the upper end of the base via a first rotary cylinder, a first and a second carrying platform slidably fitted on the inner wall of the support frame, and a driving mechanism disposed inside the support frame for driving the first and second carrying platforms to move.
[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, the cotton grabber body, which is based on existing technology, is responsible for grabbing and initially processing raw materials. Its front and back are respectively equipped with a first cotton stack and a second cotton stack for storing cotton bales to be processed. As the cotton grabber body moves on the first and second cotton stacks, it can grab the cotton bales and transport them to the next process. A first belt roller and a second belt roller are rotatably mounted on the inner wall of the conveyor frame, and the two are connected by a conveyor belt to form a closed-loop conveying path. A first motor is fixedly installed on the front of the conveyor frame, directly driving the first belt roller to rotate, thereby driving the conveyor belt. When a cotton bale is placed on the conveyor belt, the first motor is driven, and the conveyor belt will... The cotton bales are conveyed to the carrying mechanism. A U-shaped track is laid along the work area to provide a transportation path for the AGV trolley. The AGV trolley is equipped with an autonomous navigation system and moves along the U-shaped track to the designated position. The clamping component above the AGV trolley is used to grab and release the raw materials to achieve precise stacking. The first and second carrying platforms move synchronously. The drive mechanism is used to raise and lower the first and second carrying platforms. When the cotton bales are transferred from the conveyor belt to the carrying mechanism, the drive mechanism is activated to adjust the second carrying platform so that the clamping component can clamp the cotton bales. Then, the AGV trolley, in conjunction with the clamping component, accurately stacks the cotton bales on the first and second cotton stacking platforms.
[0008] Preferably, the drive mechanism includes a connecting shaft rotatably mounted on the inner wall of the support frame, two spur gears respectively fixedly mounted on the surface of the connecting shaft, a second motor fixedly mounted on the front of the support frame for driving the connecting shaft to rotate, and two sets of spur racks fixedly mounted on the opposite surfaces of the first and second support platforms, wherein the two sets of spur racks mesh with the two spur gears respectively for transmission.
[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the second motor can drive two spur gears to rotate. The spur gears mesh with the rack and pinion, thereby driving the first and second support platforms to slide along the inner wall of the support frame. The first and second support platforms move in opposite directions. When the cotton bales on the conveyor belt are transported to the second support platform, the second motor rotates and drives the second support platform to descend by the height of one cotton bale. At this time, the first support platform will rise by the height of one cotton bale. When the second support platform descends to the lowest position, the first support platform will rise to the highest position.
[0010] Preferably, the clamping component includes a mounting frame fixedly installed on the upper end of the AGV trolley, a track fixedly installed on the left side of the mounting frame, a sliding seat slidably fitted on the track surface, a mounting plate rotatably fitted on the left side of the sliding seat by a second rotary cylinder, a telescopic cylinder fixedly installed on the left side of the mounting plate, forks fixedly installed on the telescopic end and the fixed end of the telescopic cylinder respectively, and a lifting component disposed inside the mounting frame for driving the sliding seat to move, and a guide component is provided at the left end of the mounting plate.
[0011] Preferably, both the lower ends of the first and second support platforms are provided with clearance slots for forks to pass through.
[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, when the second support platform is lowered to the lowest position, the first rotary cylinder rotates to drive the first support platform and the second support platform to switch positions. At this time, the first support platform is used to receive the cotton bales conveyed from the conveyor belt. Then, the AGV trolley is driven to move the clamping component to the position of the second support platform. After that, the telescopic cylinder is driven to retract, which can drive the forks to clamp the cotton bales on the second support platform.
[0013] Preferably, the guide component includes a telescopic sleeve fixedly installed on the left side of the mounting plate, and a telescopic rod slidably fitted on the inner wall of the telescopic sleeve, with one end of the telescopic sleeve and the telescopic rod respectively fixedly connected to the opposite sides of the two forks.
[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, when the telescopic cylinder retracts, the telescopic rod will retract into the telescopic sleeve, thereby improving the stability of the fork operation and increasing the strength of the fork.
[0015] Preferably, the lifting component includes a ball screw rotatably fitted on the inner wall of the mounting frame, a third motor fixedly mounted on the upper end of the mounting frame for driving the ball screw to rotate, and a nut seat that helically drives the ball screw, with the left end of the nut seat fixedly connected to the right end of the sliding seat.
[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the third motor can drive the ball screw to rotate. The ball screw and nut seat are screwed together, which can drive the sliding seat to move linearly along the track. When the forks clamp the cotton bale, the third motor can drive the sliding seat and clamping components to rise as a whole, so that the forks below can rise along the clearance groove. The bottom of the cotton bale can be lifted by the forks below. Then, the AGV trolley is driven to move, which can drive the cotton bale to be removed from the second carrier platform. When the AGV trolley moves to the first or second cotton stack platform, the second rotary cylinder can be driven to rotate the cotton bale on the forks by 90 degrees, so that the cotton bale can be stacked on the first or second cotton stack platform.
[0017] Preferably, the upper end of the conveyor frame is provided with a positioning mechanism, which includes a positioning plate and a support base respectively fixedly installed on the upper end of the conveyor frame. A positioning block is fixedly installed on the side of the positioning plate near the support base. A push block is slidably fitted on the inner wall of the support base, and one end of the positioning block is provided with a ramp surface. A power source for driving the push block to move is provided on the front side of the conveyor frame.
[0018] Preferably, the power source includes a cam rotatably mounted on the front of the conveyor frame, a connecting rod hinged to the inner wall of the cam, a piston cylinder fixedly mounted on the front of the conveyor frame, a first piston slidably fitted on the inner wall of the piston cylinder, and an air pipe fixedly mounted on the left end of the piston cylinder.
[0019] Preferably, one end of the connecting rod is hinged to one end of the first piston, and the mounting end of the cam is fixedly connected to the front of the second belt roller.
[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, when the second belt roller rotates, it can drive the cam to rotate. After the cam rotates, it can drive the connecting rod to pull the first piston to move back and forth in the piston cylinder.
[0021] Preferably, the power source further includes a sliding cylinder fixedly installed on the front of the support base, a second piston slidably fitted on the inner wall of the sliding cylinder, and a push rod fixedly installed on the back of the second piston, wherein the back of the push rod is fixedly connected to the front of the push block, and one end of the air pipe is in communication with the interior of the sliding cylinder.
[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, when the first piston moves to the left, the gas in the piston cylinder will enter the sliding cylinder along the air pipe. This will drive the second piston to move and extend the push rod. When the first piston moves to the right, a negative pressure will be generated in the piston cylinder. The air passage will draw the air in the sliding cylinder into the piston cylinder. At this time, the push rod will retract into the sliding cylinder. When the push rod extends, it will drive the push block to approach the positioning block, thereby pushing the cotton bale on the conveyor belt to contact the positioning block. This will ensure that the cotton bale is in the same position when it enters the first or second carrier platform.
[0023] 1. The intelligent raw material conveying and stacking device for a cotton grabber described in this application uses an AGV trolley to autonomously navigate along a U-shaped ground track, and in conjunction with clamping components, it achieves precise grabbing and stacking of cotton bales, significantly reducing manual intervention, improving stacking efficiency, and reducing labor intensity.
[0024] 2. The intelligent raw material conveying and stacking device for a cotton grabber described in this application uses a cam in conjunction with a first piston and a second piston to push cotton bales to the positioning block via a gas-driven pusher, ensuring the consistency of the cotton bales' positions on the conveyor belt, reducing the error in the subsequent bearing mechanism's receipt of the cotton bales, and improving the neatness of the stacking.
[0025] 3. The intelligent raw material conveying and stacking device for a cotton grabber described in this application has a drive mechanism that enables the first and second support platforms to move in opposite directions through a spur gear and rack transmission. When a cotton bale is conveyed to the second support platform, it automatically descends by one bale height, while the first support platform rises synchronously. After the second support platform receives a preset number of cotton bales, the second rotary cylinder rotates 180 degrees to allow the first support platform to receive the cotton bales, thus forming a continuous operation cycle and avoiding idle waiting of the equipment.

[0040] The following combination Figures 1 to 9 This application will be described in further detail below.
[0041] Example 1
[0042] Please refer to the following carefully. Figures 1 to 4 A raw material intelligent conveying and stacking device for a cotton grabber includes a working area 100, a conveying mechanism 200, a stacking mechanism 300, and a carrying mechanism 400. The working area 100 consists of a cotton grabber body 101, and a first cotton stacking platform 102 and a second cotton stacking platform 103 disposed on the front and back of the cotton grabber body 101.
[0043] Specifically, the cotton grabber body 101 is existing technology and is responsible for grabbing and initially processing raw materials. It has a first cotton pile platform 102 and a second cotton pile platform 103 on its front and back respectively, which are used to store cotton bales to be processed. As the cotton grabber body 101 moves on the first cotton pile platform 102 and the second cotton pile platform 103, it can grab the cotton bales on them and transport them to the next process.
[0044] Please refer to the following carefully. Figure 1 and Figure 3 The stacking mechanism 300 includes a U-shaped ground rail 301, an AGV trolley 302 mounted on the U-shaped ground rail 301, and a clamping component mounted above the AGV trolley 302. The U-shaped ground rail 301 is laid along the perimeter of the work area 100. The clamping component includes a mounting frame 303 fixedly mounted on the upper end of the AGV trolley 302, a track 304 fixedly mounted on the left side of the mounting frame 303, a sliding seat 305 slidably fitted on the surface of the track 304, and a mounting plate 306 rotated and fitted on the left side of the sliding seat 305 by a second rotary cylinder for fixed mounting. On the left side of the mounting plate 306, there is a telescopic cylinder 307, forks 308 are fixedly installed at the telescopic end and the fixed end of the telescopic cylinder 307, and a lifting component is provided inside the mounting frame 303 to drive the sliding seat 305 to move. The left end of the mounting plate 306 is provided with a guide component, which includes a telescopic sleeve 310 fixedly installed on the left side of the mounting plate 306, and a telescopic rod 311 slidably engaged with the inner wall of the telescopic sleeve 310. One end of the telescopic sleeve 310 and the telescopic rod 311 are respectively fixedly connected to the opposite sides of the two forks 308.
[0045] Specifically, the AGV 302 is equipped with an autonomous navigation system, which moves along the U-shaped track 301 to the designated position. For example, the AGV 302 is equipped with a lidar on its top, which scans the reflectors or feature points in the working area 100 to obtain its own position and attitude information in real time. Combined with the preset map data, it can achieve centimeter-level positioning accuracy. When the AGV 302 moves along the U-shaped track 301 to the designated position, it can stop precisely. When the telescopic cylinder 307 retracts, the telescopic rod 311 will retract into the telescopic sleeve 310, which can improve the stability of the fork 308 and increase the strength of the fork 308.
[0046] Please refer to the following carefully. Figures 1 to 3 The lifting component includes a ball screw 312 rotatably fitted on the inner wall of the mounting bracket 303, a third motor 313 fixedly mounted on the upper end of the mounting bracket 303 for driving the ball screw 312 to rotate, and a nut seat 314 that is helically driven with the ball screw 312, and the left end of the nut seat 314 is fixedly connected to the right end of the sliding seat 305.
[0047] When the third motor 313 drives the ball screw 312 to rotate, the ball screw 312 and the nut seat 314 are screwed together, which drives the sliding seat 305 to move linearly along the track 304. The U-shaped ground track 301 is laid along the working area 100 to provide a transportation path for the AGV trolley 302. The clamping components above the AGV trolley 302 are used to grab and release raw materials to achieve precise stacking.
[0048] Please refer to this carefully. Figure 1 and Figure 7 The conveying mechanism 200 includes a conveying frame 201, a first belt roller 202 and a second belt roller 203 respectively rotatably mounted on the inner wall of the conveying frame 201, a first motor 204 fixedly mounted on the front of the conveying frame 201 for driving the first belt roller 202 to rotate, and a conveyor belt 205 for driving the first belt roller 202 and the second belt roller 203.
[0049] Specifically, a first belt roller 202 and a second belt roller 203 are rotatably mounted on the inner wall of the conveyor frame 201. The two are connected by a conveyor belt 205 to form a closed-loop conveying path. A first motor 204 is fixedly installed on the front of the conveyor frame 201 and directly drives the first belt roller 202 to rotate, thereby driving the conveyor belt 205 to move. When the cotton bale is placed on the conveyor belt 205, the first motor 204 is driven, and the conveyor belt 205 will transport the cotton bale to the carrying mechanism 400.
[0050] Please refer to this carefully. Figure 1 as well as Figures 4 to 6The support mechanism 400 includes a base 401, a support frame 402 rotatably mounted on the upper end of the base 401 via a first rotary cylinder, a first support platform 403 and a second support platform 404 slidably fitted on the inner wall of the support frame 402, and a drive mechanism disposed inside the support frame 402 for driving the first support platform 403 and the second support platform 404 to move. The drive mechanism includes a connecting shaft 405 rotatably mounted on the inner wall of the support frame 402, two spur gears 406 fixedly mounted on the surface of the connecting shaft 405, a second motor 407 fixedly mounted on the front of the support frame 402 for driving the connecting shaft 405 to rotate, and two sets of spur racks 408 fixedly mounted on the opposite sides of the first support platform 403 and the second support platform 404, and the two sets of spur racks 408 mesh with the two spur gears 406 respectively. The lower ends of the first support platform 403 and the second support platform 404 are provided with clearance grooves 309 for the forks 308 to pass through.
[0051] Specifically, a proximity sensor (such as an infrared sensor or an ultrasonic sensor) is installed on the fork 308. When the fork 308 approaches the clearance groove 309, the sensor detects the presence of the clearance groove 309 and sends feedback to the control system. A pressure sensor is also installed on the fork 308 to monitor the pressure applied when clamping the cotton bale. An encoder or angle sensor is installed on the second rotary cylinder to monitor the rotation angle in real time. When the rotation angle reaches 90 degrees, the encoder or angle sensor sends feedback to the control system, which then stops the rotation of the second rotary cylinder. The motor 407 drives two spur gears 406 to rotate. The spur gears 406 mesh with a rack 408, thus driving the first support platform 403 and the second support platform 404 to slide along the inner wall of the support frame 402. The first support platform 403 and the second support platform 404 move in opposite directions. When the cotton bales on the conveyor belt 205 are transported to the second support platform 404, the second motor 407 rotates, causing the second support platform 404 to descend by the height of one cotton bale. Simultaneously, the first support platform 403 rises by the height of one cotton bale. When the second support platform 404 descends to its lowest position... At this time, the first support platform 403 will rise to its highest position, and when the second support platform 404 descends to its lowest position, the first rotary cylinder will rotate to drive the first support platform 403 and the second support platform 404 to switch positions. At this time, the first support platform 403 is used to receive the cotton bales conveyed from the conveyor belt 205. Then, the AGV trolley 302 is driven to move the clamping component to the position of the second support platform 404. Then, the telescopic cylinder 307 is driven to retract, which drives the forks 308 to clamp the cotton bales on the second support platform 404. After the forks 308 clamp the cotton bales, the drive... The rotation of the third motor 313 can drive the sliding seat 305 and the clamping components to rise as a whole, causing the lower fork 308 to rise along the clearance groove 309. This allows the lower fork 308 to lift the bottom of the cotton bale, and then drive the AGV trolley 302 to move, which can move the cotton bale off the second support platform 404. When the AGV trolley 302 moves to the first cotton stack platform 102 or the second cotton stack platform 103, the second rotary cylinder can be driven to rotate the cotton bale on the fork 308 by 90 degrees, making it easier to stack the cotton bale on the first cotton stack platform 102 and the second cotton stack platform 103.
[0052] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows:
[0053] The cotton bales to be processed are evenly placed on the conveyor belt 205 to avoid accumulation. The first motor 204 is turned on, driving the first belt roller 202 to rotate. Through the transmission of the conveyor belt 205, the second belt roller 203 is driven to transport the cotton bales to the second carrier platform 404 of the carrier mechanism 400. At this time, the second motor 407 is started, driving the connecting shaft 405 to rotate. Through the meshing transmission of the spur gear 406 and the spur rack 408, the second carrier platform 404 is driven to descend by the height of one cotton bale. At the same time, the first carrier platform 403 rises synchronously. When the second carrier platform 404 descends to the lowest position, the first rotary cylinder is activated, rotating the support frame 402 180 degrees and switching the positions of the first carrier platform 403 and the second carrier platform 404, so that the first carrier platform 403 can receive the newly transported cotton bales. At this time, the autonomous navigation system of the AGV trolley 302 is activated. Move along the U-shaped ground rail 301 to the second support platform 404, ensuring that the forks 308 on the clamping component are aligned with the clearance groove 309. Then, start the third motor 313 to drive the ball screw 312 to rotate, which drives the sliding seat 305 to rise along the rail 304 through the nut seat 314, so that the bottom forks 308 pass through the clearance groove 309 and contact the bottom of the cotton bale. Then, start the telescopic cylinder 307 to retract the top forks 308 to clamp the cotton bale. The telescopic rod 311 slides in the telescopic sleeve 310 to enhance stability. Then, drive the AGV trolley 302 to move along the ground rail to the target cotton stacking area (first cotton stacking platform 102 or second cotton stacking platform 103). Start the second rotary cylinder to rotate the mounting plate 306 ninety degrees, so that the forks 308 release the cotton bale and complete the stacking. Then repeat the above steps until all cotton bales are stacked.
[0054] Example 2
[0055] Compared with Embodiment 1, another implementation of this application is as follows:
[0056] Please refer to this carefully. Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figures 7 to 9 A positioning mechanism 500 is provided at the upper end of the conveyor frame 201. The positioning mechanism 500 includes a positioning plate 501 and a support base 502, which are respectively fixedly installed at the upper end of the conveyor frame 201. A positioning block 503 is fixedly installed on the side of the positioning plate 501 near the support base 502. A push block 504 is slidably fitted on the inner wall of the support base 502. One end of the positioning block 503 is provided with a ramp surface. A power source for driving the push block 504 to move is provided on the front of the conveyor frame 201. The power source includes a cam 505 rotatably installed on the front of the conveyor frame 201, a connecting rod 506 hinged to the inner wall of the cam 505, a piston cylinder 507 fixedly installed on the front of the conveyor frame 201, a first piston 508 slidably fitted on the inner wall of the piston cylinder 507, and an air pipe 509 fixedly installed on the left end of the piston cylinder 507. One end of the connecting rod 506 is hinged to one end of the first piston 508. The mounting end of the cam 505 is fixedly connected to the front of the second belt roller 203.
[0057] Specifically, when the second belt roller 203 rotates, it can drive the cam 505 to rotate. After the cam 505 rotates, it can drive the connecting rod 506 to pull the first piston 508 to move back and forth in the piston cylinder 507.
[0058] Please refer to this carefully. Figure 8 The power source also includes a sliding cylinder 510 fixedly installed on the front of the support base 502, a second piston 511 slidably fitted on the inner wall of the sliding cylinder 510, and a push rod 512 fixedly installed on the back of the second piston 511. The back of the push rod 512 is fixedly connected to the front of the push block 504, and one end of the air pipe 509 is connected to the interior of the sliding cylinder 510.
[0059] Specifically, when the first piston 508 moves to the left, the gas in the piston cylinder 507 enters the sliding cylinder 510 along the air pipe 509. This drives the second piston 511 to move and causes the push rod 512 to extend. When the first piston 508 moves to the right, a negative pressure is generated in the piston cylinder 507. The air pipe 509 draws air from the sliding cylinder 510 into the piston cylinder 507. At this time, the push rod 512 retracts into the sliding cylinder 510. When the push rod 512 extends, it drives the push block 504 to approach the positioning block 503, thereby pushing the cotton bale on the conveyor belt 205 to contact the positioning block 503. This ensures that the cotton bale is positioned consistently when it enters the first support platform 403 or the second support platform 404.
[0060] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows:
[0061] When the second belt roller 203 rotates, it drives the cam 505 to rotate. The connecting rod 506 pulls the first piston 508 to move back and forth in the piston cylinder 507, which drives the push block 504 to extend and retract. When the cotton bale moves between the push block 504 and the positioning block 503 via the conveyor belt 205, the extension of the push block 504 ensures that the cotton bale is in contact with the positioning block 503. The fixed design of the positioning block 503 can accurately position the cotton bale. After positioning, the cotton bale continues to be transported by the conveyor belt 205 to the first carrier platform 403 or the second carrier platform 404. The retraction of the push block 504 does not affect the passage of subsequent cotton bales.
