Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of automation equipment technology, and in particular to a cleaning and cutting wire device. Background Technology

[0002] Thin sheet and plate products are widely used in the manufacturing of electronic products, optical structural components, decorative sheets, functional films, and precision composite materials. The production process for these products typically involves first cutting rolls of material into individual sheets, followed by transfer, surface cleaning, lamination and stacking, and unloading / collection to meet the requirements of subsequent heat treatment, assembly, lamination, or transshipment and packaging. Because thin sheets are typically thin, lightweight, weak in rigidity, prone to dust adhesion, misalignment, and warping, high demands are placed on cutting accuracy, conveying stability, surface cleanliness, lamination accuracy, and the ability to operate continuously on the entire production line.

[0003] In existing technologies, most equipment for processing thin sheet materials adopts a split or segmented layout, where cutting equipment, transfer equipment, cleaning equipment, and stacking equipment are set up independently and then connected by manual transfer or simple conveying mechanisms. This approach has the following drawbacks: First, the connection between each process is poor, and sheet materials are prone to misalignment, displacement, or mismatch in cycle time when transferred between different devices, affecting the overall line efficiency. Second, sheet materials easily attract dust, debris, and static electricity impurities after cutting and during transportation. If cleaning is insufficient, it will affect the subsequent bonding quality and product cleanliness. Third, for gaskets used in conjunction with sheet materials, existing equipment usually lacks effective synchronous processing methods, making it difficult to achieve orderly supply and accurate bonding of gaskets and sheet materials at the same cycle time. Fourth, in the material unloading and stacking stage, if there is a lack of alternating operation structures, when one side is full, it is often necessary to stop the machine to retrieve and replace materials, resulting in poor equipment continuity and limited production capacity.

[0004] Furthermore, existing equipment typically has poor adaptability to thin sheet materials of different specifications, requiring significant manual adjustments during changeovers, making it difficult to balance high efficiency and high stability. Especially in application scenarios that require simultaneous processing of sheet materials and gaskets, with gaskets requiring prior cleaning and standby, followed by subsequent cleaning and stacking of sheet materials, existing technologies struggle to achieve continuous, automated, and high-cleanliness integrated line operations.

[0005] Therefore, how to provide a clean cutting and wiring device that can organically integrate processes such as roll cutting, sheet material transfer and buffering, pad feeding, pad cleaning, sheet cleaning, sheet and pad bonding and stacking, and alternating left and right feeding, and can achieve continuous and stable operation through parallel switching of multiple units, has become a technical problem to be solved in this field.

[0016] The technical solution of this invention has the following beneficial effects: 1. By arranging the cutting mechanism, the post-cutting material transfer mechanism, the feeding and stacking mechanism, the air-cooled dust removal mechanism, the multi-roller dust-adhesion mechanism, and the material feeding and stacking mechanism in sequence along the material flow direction, the processes of roll cutting, sheet transfer, material cleaning, bonding, and stacking can be completed continuously on the same production line, thereby reducing manual transfer links and improving the automation level and continuous operation capability of the entire line.

[0017] 2. By setting up a material transfer mechanism after cutting, and cooperating with vision components, a picking robot and a picking transfer module, the cut sheet material can be identified in position, accurately picked up and transferred in a secondary manner. This helps to improve the positioning accuracy and handling stability of the sheet material during the transfer process, and reduce the offset, misalignment and rhythm disorder of the sheet material during the flow process.

[0018] 3. By setting up a lifting module and a product handling module in the feeding and stacking mechanism, the hopper fixture containing the gaskets can be fed in an orderly manner and lifted to a suitable work position, thereby realizing the stable gripping and transfer of the gaskets and providing reliable conditions for the automated introduction and subsequent cleaning of the gaskets.

[0019] 4. By designing the sheet material and gasket for separate processing, the gasket is first processed by air-cooled dust removal and multi-roller dust removal and then transported to the unloading and stacking station in advance to wait for its turn. The sheet material is then cleaned and then enters the bonding station. This forms a cycle logic of "gasket first, sheet material later bonding", which helps to improve bonding efficiency and reduce station waiting time.

[0020] 5. By setting up an air-cooled dust removal mechanism and a multi-roller dust-adhesion mechanism, dust removal, double-sided cleaning, and static electricity elimination treatment can be performed on the gaskets and sheets respectively, thereby effectively reducing the impact of dust, debris, and static electricity adsorption impurities on the material surface on product quality and improving the cleanliness and bonding reliability of the output products.

[0021] 6. By adopting an adjustable installation structure in multiple suction nozzle assemblies that uses suction rods and waist-shaped holes, the distribution of adsorption points can be adjusted according to the size of different specifications of sheet materials or gaskets, thereby improving the equipment's adaptability to different specifications of products, enhancing the equipment's versatility, and reducing the difficulty of changeover adjustments.

[0022] 7. By setting up an alternating operation structure of left and right lifting mechanisms in the unloading and stacking mechanism, when one side of the lifting mechanism is stacking products, the other side of the lifting mechanism can simultaneously complete the manual removal of the full material bin fixture and material replacement, thereby avoiding the problem of traditional equipment stopping and waiting due to one side being full, and ensuring continuous and uninterrupted operation of the unloading process.

[0023] 8. By optimizing the setting of three parallel operation units, when one of them reaches the set stacking quantity, the subsequent sheet material can be automatically switched to the other operation units for continued processing, thereby effectively improving the utilization rate and continuous operation capability of the entire line equipment and maximizing production capacity.

[0024] 9. The overall structure of this application is compact and the logistics path is clear. It can meet the process requirements of high-speed continuous processing of thin sheet materials, and can also take into account the requirements of synchronous matching of gaskets, surface cleanliness control and continuous feeding and stacking. It has good practicality and industrial application value. Attached Figure Description

[0031] Reference Figures 1 to 13This invention provides a clean cutting and conveying line device, mainly used for continuously cutting roll-shaped sheet materials into single pieces, and for conveying, transferring, buffering, cleaning, bonding, and stacking the sheet materials and the pads used with them, thereby realizing continuous, automated, and clean operation of the entire production line. The clean cutting and conveying line device includes a cutting mechanism 200 and at least one set of processing units disposed on the discharge side of the cutting mechanism 200. Each processing unit includes, in sequence, a post-cutting unloading transfer mechanism 400, a loading and stacking mechanism 600, an air-cooled dust removal mechanism 800, a multi-roller dust-adhesive mechanism 900, and an unloading and stacking mechanism 1000. Preferably, the entire machine is equipped with three sets of parallel operating units, the three sets of operating units having basically the same structure and operating logic, and are uniformly coordinated and operated by a PLC control system.

[0032] In this embodiment, the main processing object is thin sheet material, and a gasket is also provided. The gasket is used to adhere to the sheet material during the final unloading and stacking process to facilitate finished product stacking, protective separation, and subsequent transportation. The operating logic of the entire equipment is not simply to clean and stack the sheet material, but to pre-process the sheet material and the gasket separately along different paths, and then achieve adhesion and neat stacking at the unloading and stacking station. Specifically, the sheet material path is as follows: after the roll material is cut into single sheets by the cutting mechanism 200, it enters the cutting and unloading transfer mechanism 400 for identification, gripping, transfer and buffering, and then passes through the second transfer belt conveyor 630 in the loading and stacking mechanism 600 for cycle buffering. After that, it enters the air-cooled dust removal mechanism 800 and the multi-roller dust-adhesive mechanism 900 for cleaning according to the set cycle, and finally enters the unloading and stacking mechanism 1000 for bonding and stacking. The gasket path is as follows: the operator places the hopper fixture 710 containing the gaskets on the lifting module 640. The lifting module 640 lifts the gaskets one by one to the gripping height. Then, the product handling module 620 grips the gaskets one by one and sends them to the air-cooled dust removal mechanism 800 and the multi-roller dust-adhesive mechanism 900 for cleaning. After cleaning, the gaskets are first transported to the corresponding hopper fixture 710 of the unloading and stacking mechanism 1000 to wait.

[0033] Further, the cutting mechanism 200 includes an uncoiler 210, a cutting machine 220 disposed opposite to the uncoiler 210, a roll material sensing component 230 disposed between the uncoiler 210 and the cutting machine 220, and a conveyor belt 300 disposed on the discharge side of the cutting machine 220. The roll material sensing component 230 includes a roll material sensor 231. The uncoiler 210 is used to carry and release the roll material, allowing the roll material to be continuously fed into the cutting machine 220 according to a set rhythm. The roll material sensing component 230 is used to detect the conveying status, feeding position, arrival status, or feeding rhythm of the roll material and feed the detection results back to the PLC control system. The roll material sensor 231 is used to sense in real time whether the roll material has entered a predetermined station. The cutting machine 220 is used to cut the continuous roll material into single pieces of a predetermined size. The conveyor belt 300 is used to receive the cut pieces and continuously transport them to subsequent processing stations.

[0034] In this embodiment, before starting the equipment, the operator first installs the roll material onto the uncoiler 210 and then feeds the front end of the roll material sequentially through the guide position into the feed end of the cutter 220. After the equipment starts, the uncoiler 210 unwinds the material. The roll material sensor 231 in the roll material sensing component 230 detects the feed status, arrival status, and feeding cycle of the roll material in real time and feeds the detection signal back to the PLC control system. The PLC control system controls the cutter 220 to continuously cut the roll material according to the roll material conveying speed and the preset cutting length, thereby cutting the roll material into single sheets. The cut sheets fall from the discharge side of the cutter 220 into the conveyor belt 300 and are continuously conveyed along a predetermined direction to the post-cutting unloading transfer mechanism 400. Through the above structure, the cutter 200 can realize continuous feeding, automatic detection, and fixed-length cutting of the roll material, providing a stable source of front-end materials for subsequent sheet transfer, buffering, and cleaning.

[0035] Furthermore, the cutting and unloading transfer mechanism 400 includes a first unloading belt conveyor 410, a second unloading belt conveyor 420, a first transfer belt conveyor 430 disposed between the first unloading belt conveyor 410 and the second unloading belt conveyor 420, a vision component 440 disposed above the first unloading belt conveyor 410, a picking robot 450 disposed above the first unloading belt conveyor 410 and the first transfer belt conveyor 430, a picking transfer module 500 disposed above the first transfer belt conveyor 430 and the second unloading belt conveyor 420, and a second transfer belt line 460 connected to the first unloading belt conveyor 410; the second transfer belt line 460 is provided with the loading and stacking mechanism 600, the air-cooled dust removal mechanism 800, the multi-roller dust-adhesion mechanism 900 and the unloading and stacking mechanism 1000 in sequence on one side. The system includes a first unloading conveyor belt 410 for receiving sheet materials from the front-end cutting station, a second unloading conveyor belt 420 for receiving sheet materials after transfer and sending them to subsequent stations, and a first transfer conveyor belt 430 for intermediate buffering and posture transition of the sheet materials. A vision component 440 is used to identify the position, angle, and posture information of the sheet materials. A picking robot 450 is used to perform gripping and handling between the first unloading conveyor belt 410 and the first transfer conveyor belt 430. A picking transfer module 500 is used to complete the secondary transfer between the first transfer conveyor belt 430 and the second unloading conveyor belt 420. The working principle of the cutting and unloading transfer mechanism 400 is as follows: After the sheet material enters the vision inspection area via the first unloading conveyor belt 410, the vision component 440 first identifies the position, angle, and posture of the sheet material. Then, the picking robot 450 picks up the sheet material from the first unloading conveyor belt 410 and transports it to the first transfer conveyor belt 430. After that, the picking and transfer module 500 transfers the sheet material located on the first transfer conveyor belt 430 to the second unloading conveyor belt 420, and finally sends it to the loading and stacking mechanism 600 via the second transfer conveyor belt 460. Through the cooperation of vision recognition, mechanical picking, and secondary transfer, the sheet material can complete posture correction, cycle buffering, and station switching after leaving the cutting station, thereby improving the accuracy and continuity of sheet material transfer.

[0036] The vision component 440 includes a vision camera, and the material handling robot 450 includes a spider-hand robot and a first suction nozzle assembly 452 connected to the output end of the spider-hand robot. Preferably, the spider-hand robot 451 consists of three motors arranged in a circle and robotic arms mounted on the output ends of each motor. The robotic arms work together to drive the first suction nozzle assembly 452 to perform planar displacement and lifting and picking up materials, thereby improving the response speed and positioning accuracy when gripping sheet materials. The first suction nozzle assembly 452 includes a first fixing plate 453, a plurality of first suction rods disposed at both ends of the first fixing plate 453, and a first suction nozzle 455 installed at the end of each first suction rod. The first fixing plate 453 has a plurality of first waist-shaped holes 456 arranged side by side on both sides. Each first suction rod is installed in a corresponding first waist-shaped hole 456, so that the position of the first suction rod can be adjusted by adjusting the installation position of the first suction rod in the first waist-shaped hole 456. The first fixing plate 453 provides a mounting base for multiple first suction rods; the first suction rods support the first suction nozzles 455 and adjust their distribution position; the first suction nozzles 455 directly adsorb sheet material; the first oblong hole 456 provides adjustable mounting space for the first suction rods. Each first suction rod is installed in its corresponding first oblong hole 456. By adjusting the installation position of the first suction rod in the first oblong hole 456, the spacing and distribution between the multiple first suction nozzles 455 can be changed to adapt to the gripping needs of sheet material of different specifications.

[0037] The material handling transfer module 500 includes a transverse module 510, a Z-axis drive module 520 disposed on the output end of the transverse module 510, and a plurality of second suction nozzle assemblies 530 disposed side by side on the output end of the Z-axis drive module 520. The transverse module 510 includes a linear module; the Z-axis drive module 520 includes a mounting plate disposed on the output end of the linear module, a Z-axis drive cylinder 522 disposed on the mounting plate, a first sliding assembly 523 disposed on both sides of the mounting plate, a sliding plate 524 disposed on the first sliding assembly 523 and connected to the output end of the Z-axis drive cylinder 522, a fixing member 525 connected to the sliding plate 524, a buffer rod 526 disposed on the mounting plate and located on both sides of the sliding plate 524, and a connecting block 527 disposed on both sides of the sliding plate 524 and opposite to the buffer rod 526; the fixing member 525 includes a first fixing strip disposed at the bottom of the sliding plate 524 and a triangular reinforcing part disposed perpendicular to the first fixing strip, the bottom of the reinforcing part being fixedly connected to the first fixing strip, and the vertical part being fixedly connected to the sliding plate 524; the first sliding assembly 523 is composed of a first guide rail and a first slider. Each second suction nozzle assembly 530 includes a second fixing plate 531, a plurality of second suction rods disposed at both ends of the second fixing plate 531, and a second suction nozzle 533 installed at the end of each second suction rod. The second fixing plate 531 has a plurality of parallel second oblong holes 534 on both sides. Each second suction rod is correspondingly installed in one of the second oblong holes 534, so that the position of the second suction rod can be adjusted by adjusting its installation position within the second oblong hole 534. A Z-axis drive cylinder 522 is used to drive the sliding plate 524 to rise and fall; a first sliding assembly 523 is used to guide the movement of the sliding plate 524; a fixing member 525 is used to provide mounting support for the second suction nozzle assembly 530 and improve structural rigidity; a buffer rod 526 and a connecting block 527 are used to form a buffer limiting fit. During equipment operation, the lateral movement module 510 moves the second suction nozzle assembly 530 above the first transfer belt conveyor 430. Then, the Z-axis drive cylinder 522 drives the sliding plate 524 downwards, causing multiple second suction nozzles 533 to contact and adsorb the sheet material located on the first transfer belt conveyor 430. After the sheet material is adsorbed, the Z-axis drive cylinder 522 moves the second suction nozzle assembly 530 upwards, and the lateral movement module 510 then moves the sheet material laterally to the second unloading belt conveyor 420 or above the corresponding target station. The sheet material is then lowered to release it, thus completing the secondary transfer of the sheet material. The first guide rail and the first slider are used to precisely guide the lifting and lowering movement of the sliding plate 524, preventing swaying during lifting. The first fixing strip and the reinforcing part in the fixing component 525 are used to improve the installation rigidity of the second suction nozzle assembly 530, ensuring structural stability during frequent suction, handling, and release. The buffer rod 526 and the connecting block 527 act as buffers and limits at the end position to reduce impact and improve operational stability.Furthermore, the feeding and stacking mechanism 600 includes a machine base 610, a product handling module 620 mounted on the machine base 610, two parallel second transfer belt conveyors 630 positioned below the product handling module 620, and a lifting module 640 positioned on one side of the second transfer belt conveyors 630. The machine base 610 provides overall mounting support for the feeding and stacking mechanism 600; the second transfer belt conveyors 630 buffer and transport sheet materials from the previous station; the lifting module 640 lifts the pads in the hopper fixture to a suitable gripping position; and the product handling module 620 grips, transports, and cycles the sheet materials or pads. The second transfer belt conveyor 630 is used for buffering and transitioning the sheet materials from the previous conveyor. The lifting module 640 carries the hopper fixture containing the gaskets and gradually lifts the gaskets to a suitable position for gripping. The product handling module 620 grips and transfers the sheet materials and gaskets according to a set rhythm, thereby realizing the connection between the sheet material buffering path and the gasket loading path. It should be noted that the loading and stacking mechanism 600 is used to undertake the sheet material buffering and gasket initial loading functions respectively. The sheet materials enter the buffer area via the second transfer belt conveyor 630, waiting for release from the downstream cleaning and bonding station. The gaskets are lifted one by one by the lifting module 640 and then gripped one by one by the product handling module 620 and sent to the subsequent cleaning station. The working principle of the feeding and stacking mechanism 600 is as follows: the second transfer belt conveyor line 630 first buffers and transitions the sheet material, the lifting module 640 gradually lifts the pad on the hopper fixture 710 to the picking height, and then the product handling module 620 grabs and transfers the sheet material and the pad according to the set rhythm, thereby realizing the connection between the workstations of the sheet material buffering path and the pad feeding path.

[0038] Furthermore, the product handling module 620 includes an X-axis drive mechanism 650, a second sliding component 660 disposed opposite to the X-axis drive mechanism 650, a Y-axis drive mechanism 670 disposed on the second sliding component 660 and connected to the output end of the X-axis drive mechanism 650, a Z-axis drive mechanism 680 disposed on the output end of the Y-axis drive mechanism 670, and a plurality of third suction nozzle assemblies 690 disposed side by side on the output end of the Z-axis drive mechanism 680; the second sliding component 660 is composed of a second guide rail and a second slider; the X-axis drive mechanism 650 includes an X-axis linear module, the Y-axis drive mechanism 670 includes a Y-axis linear module; the Z-axis drive mechanism 680 includes a Z-axis cylinder 681 and a second fixing bar 682 disposed on the output end of the Z-axis cylinder 681; the plurality of third suction nozzle assemblies 690 are spaced apart on the second fixing bar 682. Each of the third suction nozzle assemblies 690 includes a third fixing plate 691, a plurality of third suction rods disposed at both ends of the third fixing plate 691, and a third suction nozzle 693 installed at the end of each third suction rod. The third fixing plate 691 has a plurality of parallel third oblong holes 694 on both sides, and each third suction rod is correspondingly installed in one third oblong hole 694. The position of the third suction rod can be adjusted by adjusting its installation position within the third oblong hole 694. An X-axis drive mechanism 650 is used for lateral movement, a Y-axis drive mechanism 670 for longitudinal movement, and a Z-axis drive mechanism 680 for lifting. The third suction nozzle assembly 690 is used to adsorb sheet materials or pads. During operation, the product handling module 620 moves above the target material under the coordinated action of the X, Y, and Z directions. The material is adsorbed by the third suction nozzle 693 and then transported to a designated position, thereby achieving material stacking or subsequent conveying.

[0039] The lifting module 640 includes a base plate 700, multiple hopper fixtures 710 arranged side-by-side on the base plate 700, through-beam sensors 720 located on the base plate 700 and at both ends of each hopper fixture 710, a lifting electric cylinder 730 located below the base plate 700, and multiple push plates 740 connected to the output end of the lifting electric cylinder 730. Each hopper fixture 710 has an opening for the push plates 740 to pass through. Each push plate 740 is also equipped with a photoelectric sensor 750. Each hopper fixture 710 includes a hopper fixture plate, a limiting rod inserted into the hopper fixture plate, and handles located on both sides of the hopper fixture plate. The limiting rod is used to limit and position the gaskets, and the handles facilitate the operator's handling, placement, and replacement of the hopper fixture 710. The lifting electric cylinder 730 drives the push plates 740 through the opening to push the gaskets on the hopper fixture 710. The hopper fixture 710 is used to carry and position the pads; the through-beam sensor 720 is used to detect the loading status of the hopper fixture 710, set the loading height, or determine the full status; the lifting cylinder 730 is used to provide lifting power; the push plate 740 is used to gradually lift the pads in the hopper fixture 710; and the photoelectric sensor 750 is used to detect whether there are pads at the current lifting position. During operation, the operator places the hopper fixture 710 containing the pads onto the lifting module 640. The lifting cylinder 730 drives the push plate 740 through the opening of the hopper fixture 710, gradually lifting the pads inside the hopper fixture 710 to a predetermined height so that the product handling module 620 can continuously grip the pads.

[0040] Furthermore, the air-blown dust removal mechanism 800 includes a dust collector; the multi-roller dust adhesion mechanism 900 includes a multi-roller dust adhesion device. Both the dust collector and the multi-roller dust adhesion device utilize existing equipment. The dust collector is used to blow away dust, debris, and light adhering substances from the surface of the sheet or gasket; the multi-roller dust adhesion device is used to contact-adhere and remove fine particles remaining on the surface of the sheet or gasket, and preferably also has an electrostatic elimination function. In a preferred embodiment, the gasket can first be cleaned by the air-blown dust removal mechanism 800 and the multi-roller dust adhesion mechanism 900 before being conveyed downstream to wait. Subsequent sheets then sequentially enter the air-blown dust removal mechanism 800 and the multi-roller dust adhesion mechanism 900 for surface cleaning, thus forming a rhythmic relationship of "gasket first, sheet then bonding".

[0041] Furthermore, the unloading and stacking mechanism 1000 includes an unloading and handling module 1010, two parallel unloading belt conveyors 1020 disposed below the unloading and handling module 1010, and a left lifting module 1030 and a right lifting module 1040 disposed on both sides of the unloading belt conveyors 1020; the unloading and handling module 1010 includes a Y-axis picking mechanism 1050 and X-axis picking mechanisms 1060 located at both ends of the Y-axis picking mechanism 1050; the Y-axis picking mechanism 1050 includes a Y-axis linear module 1051, a third sliding component 1052 located on one side of the Y-axis linear module 1051, and a first Z-axis picking component 1053 disposed on the third sliding component 1052 and connected to the Y-axis linear module; the third sliding component 1052 is composed of a third slide rail and a third slider.

[0042] The X-axis material handling mechanism 1060 includes an X-axis linear module and a gripper mechanism 1062 disposed on the output end of the X-axis linear module; the gripper mechanism 1062 includes a Z-axis lifting cylinder 1062a, a clamping cylinder 1062b disposed on the output end of the Z-axis lifting cylinder 1062a, and a gripper disposed on the output end of the clamping cylinder 1062b.

[0043] The first Z-axis material handling assembly 1053 includes a Z-axis material handling cylinder 1070 and a fourth suction nozzle assembly 1080 disposed on the output end of the Z-axis material handling cylinder 1070; each of the fourth suction nozzle assemblies 1080 includes a fourth fixing plate 1081, a plurality of fourth suction rods disposed at both ends of the fourth fixing plate 1081, and a fourth suction nozzle 1083 installed at the end of each of the fourth suction rods; the fourth fixing plate 1081 has a plurality of fourth oblong holes 1084 arranged side by side on both sides, and each of the fourth suction rods is installed in a corresponding fourth oblong hole 1084 so that the position of the fourth suction rod can be adjusted by adjusting the installation position of the fourth suction rod in the fourth oblong hole 1084.

[0044] Both the left lifting module 1030 and the right lifting module 1040 include a base plate 700, multiple hopper fixtures 710 arranged side-by-side on the base plate 700, through-beam sensors 720 located at both ends of each hopper fixture 710 on the base plate 700, a lifting cylinder 730 located below the base plate 700, and multiple push plates 740 connected to the output end of the lifting cylinder 730. Each hopper fixture 710 has an opening for the push plates 740 to pass through. Each push plate 740 is also equipped with a photoelectric sensor 750. The lifting cylinder 730 drives the push plates 740 through the opening to push the gaskets inside the hopper fixtures 710. Preferably, each of the left lifting module 1030 and the right lifting module 1040 has three hopper fixtures 710 arranged side-by-side to receive the bonded products.

[0045] The unloading and conveying module 1010 is used to transport the sheet material and pad to the corresponding hopper fixture 710 of the left lifting module 1030 or the right lifting module 1040 for bonding and receiving. The Y-axis picking mechanism 1050 is used to pick up the sheet material and pad and transport them to the hopper fixture 710 on the corresponding side. The X-axis picking mechanism 1060 is used to clamp the full hopper fixture 710 after it is full and transport it to the external unloading belt.

[0046] The working principle of the Y-axis material handling mechanism 1050 is as follows: the Y-axis linear module 1051 drives the first Z-axis material handling component 1053 to move along the Y direction to the location of the target sheet or pad. Then, the Z-axis material handling cylinder 1070 drives the fourth suction nozzle component 1080 to descend, so that the fourth suction nozzle 1083 adsorbs the sheet or pad. After adsorption, the first Z-axis material handling component 1053 rises and moves under the drive of the Y-axis linear module 1051 to the material hopper fixture 710 corresponding to the left lifting module 1030 or the right lifting module 1040, and then lowers the sheet or pad to the corresponding position. In this way, the Y-axis material handling mechanism 1050 can selectively transport sheets and pads to the left or right receiving station.

[0047] The working principle of the X-axis material handling mechanism 1060 is as follows: When the material hopper fixture 710 on the left or right side reaches the set full state, the X-axis linear module 1061 on the corresponding side drives the gripper mechanism 1062 to move above the full material hopper fixture 710. The Z-axis lifting cylinder 1062a drives the gripper 1062c to descend to the clamping position. The clamping cylinder 1062b drives the gripper 1062c to clamp the full material hopper fixture 710. Then, the Z-axis lifting cylinder 1062a rises to lift the full material hopper fixture 710. The X-axis linear module 1061 then transports the full material hopper fixture 710 to the external unloading belt position and releases it. Since there are three material hopper fixtures 710 on each side, when one side is full, the X-axis material handling mechanism 1060 on the corresponding side needs to repeat the clamping and transporting action three times to transport the three full material hopper fixtures 710 on that side to the external unloading belt in sequence.

[0048] The working principle of the unloading and stacking mechanism 1000 is as follows: After cleaning, the pads are first conveyed to the unloading belt conveyor 1020 of the unloading and handling module 1010, and then the Y-axis picking mechanism 1050 picks up the pads and places them into the corresponding hopper fixture 710 of the left lifting module 1030 or the right lifting module 1040. After that, the cleaned sheets are picked up by the Y-axis picking mechanism 1050 and placed into the hopper fixture 710 with the pads, so that the sheets and pads are aligned vertically to form a layer of product. As the sheets and pads repeat the above placement process, the products are layered and stacked in the hopper fixture 710. Preferably, each hopper fixture 710 can hold 220 pieces of product. When the three hopper fixtures 710 on the right are full, the system switches to the three hopper fixtures 710 on the left to continue receiving materials. When the three hopper fixtures 710 on the left are full, the system switches back to the right to continue receiving materials. Furthermore, once all three hopper fixtures 710 on one side are full, the X-axis material handling mechanism 1060 on the corresponding side picks up the three full hopper fixtures 710 one by one and transports them to the external unloading conveyor belt. Then, three empty hopper fixtures 710 are manually added to that side to restore the waiting-to-receive state. The left and right sides are switched cyclically in the above manner, thereby achieving continuous material receiving and continuous material unloading without stopping the machine.

[0049] During the operation of the entire equipment, continuous material flow is achieved between each workstation via a continuous conveyor belt 300, a first unloading conveyor belt 410, a first transfer conveyor belt 430, a second unloading conveyor belt 420, a second transfer conveyor belt 630, and an unloading conveyor belt 1020. The actuators are synchronized in cycle time, coordinated in position, controlled in precision, and coordinated in scheduling among multiple units via a PLC control system. The PLC control system dynamically controls the sequence of actions of each component based on the roll material feeding status, sheet cutting cycle time, visual recognition results, pad arrival signals, hopper fixture status, left and right lifting module stacking status, and the operating status of the three units, thereby ensuring stable, clean, and continuous operation of the entire line even under high-cycle conditions. Preferably, by adjusting the spacing between the conveyor rollers, the nozzle spacing, and the size of the hopper fixture, different specifications of thin sheets and pads can be accommodated, thus improving the equipment's versatility.

[0050] The overall working process of this embodiment is as follows: After the operator completes the loading of the roll material, the equipment is started. The roll material is conveyed to the cutting machine 220 via the uncoiler 210 and cut into single sheets. The cut sheets are sent to the cutting and unloading transfer mechanism 400 via the conveyor belt 300. After being identified and positioned by the vision component 440, they are picked up by the picking robot 450 and transferred to the first transfer conveyor belt 430. Then, the picking transfer module 500 transfers them to the corresponding buffer station of the loading and stacking mechanism 600. At this time, the sheets do not immediately come into contact with the pads, but wait in the buffer area corresponding to the second transfer conveyor belt 630 for release by the downstream cleaning and bonding station. At the same time, the operator places the hopper fixture 710 containing the pads on the lifting module 640. After the pads are picked up by the product handling module 620, they enter the air-cooled dust removal mechanism 800 and the multi-roller dust removal mechanism 900 in sequence for cleaning treatment, and are preferentially conveyed to the corresponding position of the unloading and stacking mechanism 1000 to wait. After being processed by the air-cooled dust removal mechanism 800 and the multi-roller dust-adhesive mechanism 900, the subsequent sheet material enters the unloading and stacking mechanism 1000. It is then transported by the unloading and handling module 1010 to the left lifting module 1030 or the right lifting module 1040, and stacked with the standby pads for output. When the three hopper fixtures 710 on the left or right side are full, the X-axis picking mechanism 1060 on the corresponding side uses the gripper mechanism 1062 to pick up the three full hopper fixtures 710 on that side in sequence and transport them to the external unloading belt. After the three empty hopper fixtures 710 are manually replenished, the system switches to that side to continue receiving material. The other side undertakes the continuous receiving task during this period.
