Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of cargo packaging technology, and in particular to an automatic pallet loading mechanism for a fully automated pallet strapping machine. Background Technology

[0002] In the process of packing and transporting goods, in order to facilitate the transportation, stacking and handling of goods, it is usually necessary to place the goods on pallets for overall packing.

[0003] Currently, most goods are packaged by workers manually moving pallets to designated locations before strapping them in. This manual pallet handling is not only labor-intensive and inefficient, making it difficult to meet the demands of large-scale, high-efficiency goods packaging, but also prone to pallet misalignment and drops during operation, affecting packaging quality and potentially posing safety hazards such as bumps and crushes to operators. Therefore, we propose an automatic pallet loading mechanism for a fully automated pallet strapping machine. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To address the technical problem of low pallet handling efficiency, this invention provides an automatic pallet loading mechanism for a fully automated pallet strapping machine.

[0005] This invention is achieved using the following technical solution: an automatic pallet loading mechanism for a fully automated pallet strapping machine, comprising a drive mechanism one, including a Y-axis frame mounted on the fully automated strapping machine, a sliding component mounting plate bolted to the Y-axis frame, a power component one and a sliding component one bolted to the sliding component mounting plate, a rack one meshing on the sliding component one, a rack mounting plate bolted to the rack one, and the rack mounting plate and the sliding component one bolted to the fully automated strapping machine; a drive mechanism two, including a sliding component two and a rack two bolted to the Y-axis frame, an X-axis frame bolted to the sliding component two, a power component two bolted to the X-axis frame, the power component two meshing with the rack two; and a drive mechanism three, including a sliding component three and a rack three bolted to the X-axis frame, the sliding component three being bolted to... A gripping cylinder mounting plate is bolted on, and a sliding component four and a power component three are bolted on the gripping cylinder mounting plate. The power component three meshes with a rack three. The gripping mechanism includes a gripping cylinder one and a gripping cylinder two mounted on the gripping cylinder mounting plate. The output end of gripping cylinder one is connected to a floating joint one, and a gripper one is connected to the threaded hole of the floating joint one. The output end of gripping cylinder two is connected to a floating joint two, and a gripper two is connected to the threaded hole of the floating joint two. Grippers one and two are bolted on the sliding component four. A gripping cylinder fixing plate one is bolted on gripping cylinder one, and a gripping cylinder fixing plate two is bolted on gripping cylinder two. Through the operation of the above components, the pallet can be gripped and placed quickly, and the automatic pallet loading action can be continuously realized. The mechanism can be adaptively adjusted according to the position of the pallet.

[0006] As a further improvement to the above solution, the working area of ​​the gripping component is equipped with photoelectric sensors for detecting the position of the pallet and the gripping status. Through the operation of the above components, the stacking position of the pallet, the alignment status of the gripper and the pallet, and whether the gripping is firm can be detected in real time, ensuring the accuracy and safety of the operation process.

[0007] As a further improvement to the above solution, the first power assembly includes a motor fixed on the sliding assembly mounting plate, a transmission shaft connected to the output end of the motor, and a gear fixedly sleeved on the outside of the transmission shaft. The second power assembly includes a motor fixed on the X-axis frame, a transmission shaft connected to the output end of the motor, and a gear fixedly sleeved on the outside of the transmission shaft. The third power assembly includes a motor fixed on the gripping cylinder mounting plate, a transmission shaft connected to the output end of the gripping cylinder, and a gear fixedly sleeved on the outside of the transmission shaft. The first gear meshes with the first rack, the second gear meshes with the second rack, and the third gear meshes with the third rack. Through the operation of the above components, the entire mechanism can be moved upward along the sliding assembly, the X-axis frame can be moved along the sliding assembly, and the gripping cylinder mounting plate can be moved along the sliding assembly.

[0008] As a further improvement to the above solution, the fully automatic strapping machine is bolted to a drag chain mounting plate, and a drag chain is bolted to the drag chain mounting plate, with the other end of the drag chain fixed to the power assembly. The drag chain can be used to protect the cable of the power assembly and move synchronously with it.

[0009] As a further improvement to the above solution, a drag chain mounting plate 2 is bolted to the X-axis frame, and a drag chain 2 with its other end fixed to the power assembly 3 is bolted to the drag chain mounting plate 2. The drag chain 2 can be used to protect related cables and move synchronously with the power assembly 3.

[0010] As a further improvement to the above solution, the Y-axis frame is bolted to a cable chain three, the other end of which is fixed to the power assembly three. The cable chain three can be used to protect related cables and move synchronously with the power assembly three.

[0011] As a further improvement to the above solution, the gripping cylinder fixing plate one and the gripping cylinder fixing plate two are bolted to the gripping cylinder mounting plate. By fixing the gripping cylinder fixing plate one and the gripping cylinder fixing plate two to the gripping cylinder mounting plate, the stability of the gripping cylinder one and the gripping cylinder two can be improved.

[0012] As a further improvement to the above solution, the outside of the fully automatic strapping machine is provided with a pallet stacking rack with stacked pallets. The pallet stacking rack with a slight slope at the bottom can prevent the pallets from tipping over when stacked.

[0013] As a further improvement to the above solution, the fully automatic strapping machine has a flipping machine on one side for placing pallets. The flipping machine can be used to place pallets and goods.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: 1. This invention, when used in conjunction with a fully automated pallet strapping machine, can automatically complete the operations of pallet grabbing, transfer and placement, effectively solving the problems of low efficiency and high labor intensity of manual pallet loading, and saving manpower.

[0015] 2. This invention avoids the safety hazards of pallets falling and personnel bumping into each other during manual handling and placement of pallets by automating the process. It further improves the safety and reliability of the operation by using photoelectric detection to monitor the operation status in real time.

[0016] 3. This invention not only ensures the accuracy of pallet placement and avoids affecting packaging quality due to manual placement deviation, but also meets the production needs of large-scale goods packaging and reduces production costs. Furthermore, it reduces losses such as pallet damage and goods rework caused by human error, further reducing the company's production and operating costs. Attached Figure Description

[0019] The present invention will now be further described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that, without conflict, the various embodiments or technical features described below can be arbitrarily combined to form new embodiments.

[0020] Example 1: Combination Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 This embodiment describes an automatic pallet loading mechanism for a fully automated pallet strapping machine. The drive mechanism includes a Y-axis frame 7 mounted on the fully automated strapping machine 1. A sliding component mounting plate 6 is bolted to the Y-axis frame 7. A power component 8 and a sliding component 5 are bolted to the sliding component mounting plate 6. A rack 4 meshes with the sliding component 5. A rack mounting plate 2 is bolted to the rack 4. The rack mounting plate 2 and the sliding component 5 are bolted to the fully automated strapping machine 1. The sliding component mounting plate 6 is bolted to the sliding end of the sliding component 5. The sliding component mounting plate 6 and the Y-axis frame 7 can slide on the fully automated strapping machine 1. The second drive mechanism includes a second sliding component 10 and a second rack 9 bolted to the Y-axis frame 7. An X-axis frame 24 is bolted to the second sliding component 10. A second power component 26 is bolted to the X-axis frame 24. The second power component 26 meshes with the second rack 9. The X-axis frame 24 is fixed to the sliding end of the second sliding component 10 and can slide on the second sliding component 10. The third drive mechanism includes a sliding assembly 25 and a rack 13 bolted to the X-axis frame 24. A gripping cylinder mounting plate 27 is bolted to the sliding assembly 25. A sliding assembly 19 and a power assembly 20 are bolted to the gripping cylinder mounting plate 27. The power assembly 20 meshes with the rack 13. The gripping cylinder mounting plate 27 is fixed to the sliding end of the sliding assembly 25 and can slide on the sliding assembly 25. The gripping mechanism includes a gripping cylinder 21 and a gripping cylinder 18 mounted on a gripping cylinder mounting plate 27. The output end of the gripping cylinder 21 is connected to a floating joint 23, and a gripper 28 is connected to the threaded hole of the floating joint 23. The output end of the gripping cylinder 18 is connected to a floating joint 16, and a gripper 15 is connected to the threaded hole of the floating joint 16. The gripper 28 and the gripper 15 are fixedly mounted on the sliding assembly 19 by bolts. A gripping cylinder fixing plate 22 is bolted to the gripping cylinder 21, and a gripping cylinder fixing plate 17 is bolted to the gripping cylinder 18.

[0021] The implementation principle of the automatic pallet loading mechanism of a fully automated pallet strapping machine in this application embodiment is as follows: During use, power component 1 8 drives the entire mechanism to move upward along sliding component 1 5 to a suitable height; power component 3 20 drives the gripping cylinder mounting plate 27 to move back and forth along sliding component 3 25 to a suitable position; power component 2 26 drives the X-axis frame 24 to move to the right along sliding component 2 10 to a suitable position. Here, gripper 1 28 and gripper 2 15 are directly above the outermost pallet 31 on the pallet stacking rack 30; power component 1 8 drives the entire mechanism downward along sliding component 1 5. Once moved to the appropriate height, gripping cylinders 21 and 18 retract, causing grippers 28 and 15 to retract as well, clamping both sides of the outermost pallet 31 on the pallet stacking rack 30. Power assembly 8 moves the entire mechanism upward along sliding assembly 5 to the appropriate height. Power assembly 26 moves the X-axis frame 24 to the left along sliding assembly 10 to the appropriate position. At this point, pallet 31 is just against the right side of the goods already secured by the fully automatic pallet strapping machine 1. Power assembly 20 moves the gripping cylinder mounting plate 27 forward along sliding assembly 25 to the appropriate position. Finally, gripping cylinders 21 and 18 extend, causing grippers 28 and 15 to retract, releasing both sides of the outermost pallet 31 on the pallet stacking rack 30 and placing pallet 31 in the designated position. Repeating the above steps will then achieve automatic pallet loading.

[0022] Example 2: Combination Figure 4 Based on Embodiment 1, this embodiment is further improved in that: the working area of ​​the gripping component is provided with a detection photoelectric sensor 14 for detecting the position of the pallet and the gripping status. The detection photoelectric sensor 14 is set in the working area of ​​the gripping mechanism to detect the stacking position of the pallet 31, the alignment status of the gripper 1 and gripper 2 with the pallet 31 and whether the gripping is firm in real time, so as to ensure the accuracy and safety of the operation process.

[0023] Power assembly 1 8 includes a motor 1 fixed on the sliding assembly mounting plate 6, a drive shaft 1 connected to the output end of motor 1, and a gear 1 fixedly sleeved on the outside of drive shaft 1. Power assembly 26 includes a motor 2 fixed on the X-axis frame 24, a drive shaft 2 connected to the output end of motor 2, and a gear 2 fixedly sleeved on the outside of drive shaft 2. Power assembly 3 20 includes a motor 3 fixed on the gripping cylinder mounting plate 27, a drive shaft 3 connected to the output end of motor 3, and a gear 3 fixedly sleeved on the outside of drive shaft 3. Gear 1 meshes with rack 1 4, gear 2 meshes with rack 2 9, and gear 3 meshes with rack 1 4. The three motors 1, 2, and 3 are reversible motors. The operation of motor 1 drives the transmission shaft 1 and gear 1 to rotate. The meshing of gear 1 and rack 1 4 moves the entire mechanism upward along the sliding assembly 5 to a suitable height. The operation of motor 2 drives the transmission shaft 2 and gear 2 to rotate. The meshing of gear 2 and rack 2 9 moves the X-axis frame 24 to displacement.
