[0002] In the industrial food processing industry, palletizing robots can be used for palletizing food after packaging. They can stack packaged food according to certain rules, saving labor and improving the efficiency of handling and palletizing. For example, in the production of drinking water, after the drinking water is processed, multiple bottles of drinking water need to be packed in cardboard boxes or plastic films, and then the boxes or bundles of drinking water are stacked up for easy transportation.

[0003] Chinese Patent CN119953892B, published on November 28, 2025, discloses a palletizing robot for industrial food processing, which includes a robotic arm, a support frame, a guide ring, a limiting plate, a conveying roller mechanism, and a switching mechanism; the robotic arm has an operating end; the support frame is connected to the operating end; two guide rings are horizontally symmetrically arranged on the support frame; the conveying roller mechanism includes multiple sets of conveying roller assemblies arranged side by side along the outer contour of the guide ring, and the conveying roller assembly includes a roller group and two sets of moving components symmetrically distributed about the roller group.

[0004] The aforementioned application document describes a device that can handle and stack an entire layer of goods, improving its stacking efficiency. However, when the device is used on foods such as cured meat with oily surfaces, the oily foods are slippery and tend to slide off quickly when pushed out, thus affecting the device's stacking effect. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides an intelligent handling and palletizing robot for industrial food processing, which solves the problems mentioned in the background section.

By setting up the auxiliary buffer assembly, the auxiliary friction plates on both sides can rotate to the side position of the fixed seat, further decelerating the pushed-out food and further preventing it from slipping directly.

[0013] Preferably, the oil collection assembly includes an oil guide plate fixed to the bottom of the fixed base, a transmission rod three fixedly connected to the bottom of the transmission rod one, a gear two fixedly connected to the bottom of the transmission rod three, a double-acting lead screw rotatably connected to the side of the oil guide plate, a gear two fixedly connected to the side of the double-acting lead screw, the gear two meshing with the gear two, a sliding rod threadedly connected to the outer side of the double-acting lead screw, a brush plate fixedly connected to the bottom of the sliding rod, and a detachable collection chamber mounted on the bottom of the oil guide plate via a delivery pipe.

In conjunction with the rotating block 1, gear 1, bevel gear 1, rotating rod 1 and bevel gear 2, the auxiliary friction plates on both sides can be rotated to the side position of the fixed seat, further decelerating the pushed food and further preventing it from slipping directly.

[0017] (3) In this application, the oil on the food is dripped into the oil guide plate through the rotating roller. When the transmission rod one moves, it can drive the transmission rod three to move synchronously.

[0020] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are merely some, not all, of the embodiments of the present application. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present application without creative effort should fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0021] Example 1, please refer to Figures 1-6 An intelligent handling and palletizing robot for industrial food processing includes a robotic arm 100, a support plate 200 mounted on the bottom of the robotic arm 100, a fixed base 300 mounted on the bottom of the support plate 200, a rotating roller 400 rotatably connected inside the fixed base 300, and a push plate 501 driven by a linear motor mounted on the side of the fixed base 300. When the linear motor is activated, it drives the push plate 501 to move, and the moving push plate 501 pushes the food on the rotating roller 400.

[0022] A rotating shaft 504 with an internal torsion spring is rotatably connected to the side of the fixed base 300. A wedge block 506 is fixedly connected to the side of the rotating shaft 504. A force-bearing rod 512 is connected to the inner wall of the wedge block 506 via a spring 511. A transmission component for transmission is assembled between the push plate 501, the wedge block 506, and the force-bearing rod 512. The transmission component includes a moving rod 502 fixed to the top of the push plate 501, and a transmission rod 503 is fixedly connected to the side of the moving rod 502. When the push plate 501 moves, it drives the moving rod 502 fixedly connected to it to move synchronously, so that the moving rod 502 drives the transmission rod 503 fixedly connected to it to move.

[0023] A force-bearing plate 505 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the rotating shaft 504. The force-bearing plate 505 is located on the side of the transmission rod 503, and the force-bearing plate 505 and the transmission rod 503 are in contact with each other. When the transmission rod 503 moves, it can squeeze the force-bearing plate 505 and drive it to rotate. This causes the transmission rod 503 to drive the rotating shaft 504, which is fixedly connected to it, to rotate. The rotating shaft 504 can then drive the inclined block 506, which is fixedly connected to it, to rotate, thus removing the restriction on the food. Furthermore, the inclined block 506 prevents the food inside the device from falling out during handling.

[0024] A transmission plate 508 is connected to the top of the support plate 200 via springs 507. Two springs 507 are arranged in each group, symmetrically distributed about the central axis of the transmission plate 508. A force-bearing plate 509 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the transmission plate 508. When the device is in operation, the force-bearing plate 509 is located to the side of the moving rod 502, and is in contact with the moving rod 502. When the moving rod 502 continues to move, it contacts and presses the force-bearing plate 509. The pressed force-bearing plate 509 then drives the transmission plate 508, which is fixedly connected to it, to move, causing the transmission plate 508 to stretch the springs 507 and move upwards.

[0025] A transmission rod 510 is fixedly connected to the side of the transmission plate 508. When the device is in operation, the force-bearing rod 512 is located at the top of the transmission rod 510, and the force-bearing rod 512 is in contact with the transmission rod 510. When the transmission plate 508 moves, it drives the transmission rod 510, which is fixedly connected to it, to move synchronously. This causes the transmission rod 510 to press against the force-bearing rod 512, which rotates with the inclined block 506 to that location, thus moving the force-bearing rod 512.

[0026] A buffer friction plate 513 is fixedly connected to the top of the force-bearing rod 512. When the force-bearing rod 512 moves, it can drive the buffer friction plate 513 fixedly connected to it to move upward together, and the two buffer friction plates 513 then move to the top position of the inclined block 506. This prevents greasy food from sliding down quickly when it is pushed out, and improves the stacking effect of the device.

[0027] In practical use, the above-mentioned equipment activates a linear motor, which drives a pusher plate 501 to move. The moving pusher plate 501 pushes the food off the rotating roller 400. Simultaneously, the pusher plate 501 drives a moving rod 502 fixedly connected to it to move synchronously. This causes the moving rod 502 to drive a transmission rod 503 fixedly connected to it to move. The moving transmission rod 503 then presses against a force plate 505 in contact with it. The force plate 505 rotates due to the pressure from the transmission rod 503, causing the transmission rod 503 to rotate against the fixed plate 505. The rotating shaft 504, which is fixedly connected, rotates, and the rotating shaft 504 drives the inclined block 506, which is fixedly connected to it, to rotate. As the moving rod 502 continues to move, the moving rod 502 comes into contact with the second force plate 509 and presses against the second force plate 509. The pressed force plate 509 then drives the transmission plate 508, which is fixedly connected to it, to move. This causes the transmission plate 508 to stretch the second spring 507 and move upward. The moving transmission plate 508 then drives the transmission rod 510, which is fixedly connected to it, to move synchronously. This causes the transmission rod 510 to press against the force plate 506. The inclined block 506 rotates to the force-bearing rod 512 at that position, causing the force-bearing rod 512 to move. The moving force-bearing rod 512 then stretches the spring 511 and moves upwards, causing the force-bearing rod 512 to move upwards along with the buffer friction plate 513 fixedly connected to it. The two buffer friction plates 513 then move to the top position of the inclined block 506. After the food is pushed out, the push plate 501 can be reset under the action of the linear motor. The reset push plate 501 can then drive the moving rod 502 fixedly connected to it to reset, and the force-bearing plate 509 loses the moving rod 502. The restriction of 02 causes the transmission plate 508, which is fixed to the outside of the force plate 509, to lose its restriction and reset under the action of the spring 507, which in turn drives the transmission rod 510 to reset. The force rod 512, no longer restricted by the transmission rod 510, can reset under the action of the spring 511, which in turn drives the buffer friction plate 513 to reset. Subsequently, the moving rod 502 can drive the transmission rod 503 away from the force plate 505. The force plate 505 and the rotating shaft 504 lose their restriction and can rotate in the opposite direction under the action of the torsion spring inside the rotating shaft 504, which drives the inclined block 506 to reset.

[0028] Example 2, please refer to Figures 4-8Based on Embodiment 1, an auxiliary buffer assembly 600 is mounted on the side of the fixed base 300. The auxiliary buffer assembly 600 includes a gear 601 fixed to the top of the transmission rod 510. When the transmission rod 510 moves upward, it can drive the gear 601 fixedly connected to it to move upward together.

[0029] A rotating block 602 is rotatably connected to the side of the support plate 200. A gear 603 and a bevel gear 604 are fixedly connected to the outer side of the rotating block 602. The bevel gear 603 meshes with a rack 601. When the rack 601 moves upward, it drives the gear 603 to rotate, which in turn drives the rotating block 602 to rotate. The rotating block 602, in turn, drives the bevel gear 604 to rotate.

[0030] A rotating rod 605 is rotatably connected to the side of the fixed base 300. A bevel gear 606 is fixedly connected to the top of the rotating rod 605, and the bevel gear 606 meshes with the bevel gear 604. When the bevel gear 604 rotates, it drives the bevel gear 606 meshing with it to rotate, and the rotating bevel gear 606 drives the rotating rod 605 fixedly connected to it to rotate.

[0031] An auxiliary friction plate 607 is fixedly connected to the side of the rotating rod 605. When the auxiliary friction plates 607 on both sides rotate to the side position of the fixed base 300, the food being pushed out can be further decelerated, further preventing it from slipping directly.

[0032] In practical use, when the transmission rod 510 moves upward, it drives the rack 601 fixedly connected to it to move upward as well. The rack 601 in the moving state drives the gear 603 meshing with it to rotate, which in turn drives the rotating block 602 fixedly connected to it to rotate. The rotating block 602 in the rotating state drives the bevel gear 604 fixedly connected to it to rotate, which in turn drives the bevel gear 606 meshing with it to rotate. The bevel gear 606 in the rotating state drives the rotating rod 605 fixedly connected to it to rotate, which in turn drives the auxiliary friction plate 607 fixedly connected to it to rotate at a certain angle. The auxiliary friction plates 607 on both sides then rotate to the side position of the fixed seat 300. When the transmission rod 510 resets, it drives the rack 601 fixedly connected to it to reset. The rack 601 in the reset state drives the gear 603 meshing with it to reset, and similarly, the auxiliary friction plate 607 can be reset.

[0033] Example 3, please refer to Figures 7-10Based on Embodiments 1 and 2, an oil collection assembly 700 is fitted to the bottom of the fixing base 300. The oil collection assembly 700 includes an oil guide plate 701 fixed to the bottom of the fixing base 300. Oil on the food drips into the oil guide plate 701 through the rotating roller 400.

[0034] A transmission rod 3 702 is fixedly connected to the bottom of transmission rod 1 503, and a gear 2 703 is fixedly connected to the bottom of transmission rod 3 702. When transmission rod 1 503 moves to the side, it can drive transmission rod 3 702, which is fixedly connected to it, to move, so that transmission rod 3 702 drives gear 2 703, which is fixedly connected to it, to move.

[0035] A double-acting lead screw 704 is rotatably connected to the side of the oil guide plate 701, and a gear 705 is fixedly connected to the side of the double-acting lead screw 704. The gear 705 meshes with a rack 703. When the rack 703 moves, it drives the gear 705 to rotate, and the rotating gear 705 drives the double-acting lead screw 704 to rotate.

[0036] A sliding rod 706 is threadedly connected to the outer side of the double-acting lead screw 704. The sliding rod 706 is located at the top of the oil guide plate 701, and the sliding rod 706 and the oil guide plate 701 are in a sliding connection state. A brush plate 707 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the sliding rod 706. When the double-acting lead screw 704 rotates, the sliding rod 706, which is threadedly mounted on the outer side of the double-acting lead screw 704, is simultaneously restricted by the oil guide plate 701 with which it is slidably connected, causing the sliding rod 706 to drive the brush plate 707 mounted at its bottom to move.

[0037] The bottom of the oil guide plate 701 is equipped with a detachable collection chamber 709 via a delivery pipe 708. When the brush plates 707 on both sides move towards each other, the oil is pushed towards the side closer to the delivery pipe 708, and the oil flows into the collection chamber 709 through the delivery pipe 708 for collection. This prevents the oil from dripping and damaging the device, making the device easier to use.

[0038] In practical use, the oil on the food drips into the oil guide plate 701 through the rotating roller 400. When the transmission rod 503 moves to the side, it drives the transmission rod 702, which is fixedly connected to it, to move. This causes the transmission rod 702 to drive the rack 703, which is fixedly connected to it, to move. The rack 703 then drives the gear 705, which meshes with it, to rotate. The rotating gear 705 then drives the double-acting screw 704, which is fixedly connected to it, to rotate. The sliding rod 706, which is threaded onto the outside of the double-acting screw 704, is simultaneously restricted by the oil guide plate 701, which is slidably connected to it. This causes the sliding rod 706 to drive the brush plate 707, which is mounted at its bottom, to move. When the brush plates 707 move towards each other, the oil is pushed towards the side closer to the conveying pipe 708, and the oil flows into the collection chamber 709 through the conveying pipe 708 for collection. In this way, oil dripping from the food can be collected when the food is pushed out of the device. When the transmission rod 503 is reset, it drives the transmission rod 702 fixedly connected to it to reset, which in turn drives the rack 703 fixedly connected to it to reset. The rack 703 then drives the gear 705 meshing with it to rotate in the opposite direction to reset, which in turn drives the bidirectional lead screw 704 fixedly connected to it to rotate in the opposite direction. Similarly, the brush plates 707 on both sides are reset.
