Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of glove finishing and packaging equipment technology, specifically to an automatic finishing device and method for latex gloves. Background Technology

[0002] Latex gloves, as basic protective products, are widely used in medical, food, laboratory, and industrial fields. Currently, latex gloves are typically delivered in boxes after being sorted and packaged in specific ways. However, the sorting and packaging process for latex gloves currently produced is usually done manually, which suffers from high reliance on manual labor and poor efficiency and consistency. Workers must manually perform tasks such as glove pairing, orientation, stacking, and boxing, which is labor-intensive, slow, and prone to problems such as misalignment, inconsistent hem direction, and mixing of left and right hands due to differences in operating habits, affecting product standardization. Furthermore, maintaining cleanliness is difficult, posing a risk of secondary contamination. Latex gloves are mostly used in sterile or high-hygiene environments such as operating rooms and food processing plants, but during manual boxing, the operator's hands, clothing, or environmental particles may come into contact with the inner surface of the gloves, making it difficult to guarantee cleanliness.

[0003] Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop an automatic sorting and boxing equipment for latex gloves that can achieve high-precision automatic pairing, contactless clean stacking, stable boxing, and intelligent sorting, so as to improve production efficiency and ensure product quality.

The stroke length of the third suction head is greater than the stroke length of the second suction head.

[0011] Based on the above technical solution, the clamping device includes a fifth driving mechanism, a sixth driving mechanism, a mounting plate, grippers, a driving plate, and a driving rod. The sixth driving mechanism is driven to rotate by the fifth driving mechanism. The mounting plate is fixedly mounted on the sixth driving mechanism.

[0019] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, an automatic latex glove sorting device includes a feeding and suction device 1, a conveying device 2, a vision recognition device 3, a gripping device 4, a transfer device 5, a clamping device 6, and a storage device 7. The feeding and suction device 1 is used to pick up gloves and feed them onto the conveying device 2. The conveying device 2 is used to transport the gloves. The vision recognition device 3 is used to identify the wrist opening and finger direction of the gloves and is electrically connected to the gripping device 4 and the clamping device 6. The gripping device 4 is used to grip the gloves and adjust the wrist opening direction. The transfer device 5 drives the gripping device to move in three dimensions. The clamping device 6 is used to clamp the gloves and adjust the finger direction. The storage device 7 is used to store and sort the gloves on the clamping device.

[0020] This invention provides an automatic latex glove sorting device that realizes the entire process of glove handling, from feeding and absorbing materials, accurate identification of the glove's wrist direction, precise grasping and transfer, identification and adjustment of the glove's finger direction, to automatic storage and sorting. It has a high degree of automation, reduces manual operation, effectively improves work efficiency, does not rely on manual operation habits, and has good product consistency. At the same time, it also reduces the possibility of secondary contamination, effectively ensuring the cleanliness of the product and better meeting the safety requirements of various usage scenarios for latex gloves.

[0021] Based on the above technical solution, the feeding and suction device 1 includes a hopper 11, a first drive mechanism 12, a lifting frame 13, and a first suction head 14. The hopper 11 is filled with gloves. The first drive mechanism 1 drives the lifting frame 13 to move in the z-axis and x-axis directions. Multiple first suction heads 14 are provided on the lifting frame 13.

[0022] Based on the above technical solution, the first drive mechanism 12 includes a first cylinder 121, a first connecting rod 122, a second connecting rod 123, a connecting shaft 124, and a sliding seat 125. One end of the first connecting rod 122 is hinged to the output end of the first cylinder 121, and the other end is hinged to the second connecting rod 123. One end of the second connecting rod 123 is sleeved on the connecting shaft 124 and rotatably connected, and the other end is hinged to the sliding seat 125. The sliding seat 125 is slidably connected to the side wall of the frame 100, and the lifting frame 13 is fixedly installed at the free end of the connecting shaft 124.

[0023] Preferably, a guide rail is also provided on the side wall of the frame 100, and the sliding seat is adapted to the guide rail structure and slidably connected.

[0024] More preferably, a guide rod 126 is provided at the end of the sliding seat 125, and the guide rod 126 is slidably connected to a guide seat 127 provided on the side wall of the frame; The working process of the feeding and suction device is as follows: In the initial state, the first suction head 58 is located in the hopper 11. After the air source is turned on, multiple first suction heads 14 suck the gloves in the hopper onto the first conveyor belt. Specifically, the first cylinder 121 retracts, driving the first connecting rod 122 to move. The first connecting rod 122 drives the second connecting rod 123 to rotate, thereby driving the lifting frame 13 and the first suction heads 14 on it to move above the first conveyor belt. When the first suction head needs to return to the hopper, the operation can be reversed.

[0025] Based on the above technical solution, the conveying device 2 includes a first conveyor belt 21 and a second conveyor belt 22. The first conveyor belt 21 is driven to rotate by a second driving mechanism, and the second conveyor belt 22 is driven to rotate by a third driving mechanism. The second conveyor belt 22 is located below the first conveyor belt 21 and has the opposite conveying direction.

[0026] Preferably, the third driving mechanism has the same structure as the second driving mechanism but rotates in the opposite direction. The second driving mechanism includes a driving motor, a driving roller, and a driven roller. The driving motor drives the driving roller to rotate, and the driving roller drives the driven roller to rotate via a first conveyor belt.

[0027] The first conveyor belt 21 of the conveying device 2 is driven to rotate by the second drive mechanism and is used to place the gloves loaded into the hopper. The vision camera above it identifies the wrist direction of the gloves, which facilitates the action of the gripping device and subsequent operations. The second conveyor belt 22 is located below the first conveyor belt 21. After the gripping device has grabbed the qualified products, the remaining unqualified gloves are transported to the second conveyor belt and then transported back into the hopper for subsequent sorting and reloading.

[0028] Based on the above technical solution, the visual recognition device 3 includes a first visual camera 31 and a second visual camera 32. The first visual camera 31 is correspondingly arranged above the conveying device 2 and is electrically connected to the gripping device 4. The second visual camera 32 is correspondingly arranged with the clamping device 6 and is electrically connected to the clamping device 6.

[0029] The first vision camera 31 in the vision recognition device 3 is set above the conveying device 2, i.e. the first conveyor belt 21, to identify the wrist direction of the gloves after they are loaded. If the identification is successful, an electrical signal is sent to the gripping device to grip and adjust the wrist direction of the gloves. The second vision camera 32 identifies the finger direction of the gloves after they are clamped by the clamping device 6. If the finger direction is not appropriate, an electrical signal is sent to the clamping device 6, and the clamping device 6 adjusts the finger direction of the gloves.

[0030] It should be noted that both the first and second vision cameras used in this application can be obtained from the prior art, and this application does not involve any improvement to the specific structure of the vision camera.

[0031] Based on the above technical solution, the gripping device 4 includes a fourth driving mechanism 41, a rotating seat 42, a second suction head 43, and a third suction head 44. The fourth driving mechanism 41 is mounted on the transfer device 5 and driven by the transfer device 5 to move in different directions. The rotating seat 42 is driven to rotate by the fourth driving mechanism 41. The second suction head 43 is slidably mounted on the rotating seat 42. The third suction head 44 is symmetrically mounted on both sides of the second suction head 43 and is slidably connected to the rotating seat 42. The stroke length of the third suction head 44 is greater than the stroke length of the second suction head 42.

[0032] Preferably, the fourth driving mechanism 41 is configured as a drive motor. It is also understood that the first suction head, the second suction head, and the third suction head are all connected to an air source via pipelines (not shown in the figure) to achieve the suction and release of the glove.

[0033] After the first visual camera 31 in the aforementioned visual recognition device 3 identifies the glove as qualified, the grasping device 4 begins to grasp. Specifically, the transfer device 5 drives the grasping device to the position of the glove wrist that needs to be grasped, and moves downward to the glove wrist. At this time, the second suction head 43 and the third suction head 44 abut against the glove wrist. After grasping, since the length of the second suction head is shorter than the length of the third suction heads on both sides, the grasping device automatically forms a triangular opening in the direction of the glove wrist after rising, which facilitates the subsequent clamping operation of the clamping device 6.

[0034] Preferably, a return spring is provided between the second suction head 43, the third suction head 44 and the inner wall of the rotating seat 42. By providing a return spring, after the second and third suction heads pick up the glove and the gripping device rises, the second and third suction heads return to their original positions under the action of the return spring, thereby opening the wrist opening.

[0035] Preferably, the transfer device 5 includes a z-axis drive mechanism 51, an x-axis drive mechanism 52, and a y-axis drive mechanism 53. The gripping device 4 is driven by the z-axis drive mechanism 51 to move in the z-axis direction, the x-axis drive mechanism 52 drives the z-axis drive mechanism 51 to move in the x-axis direction, and the y-axis drive mechanism 53 drives the x-axis drive mechanism 52 to move in the y-axis direction.

[0036] More preferably, the z-axis drive mechanism, x-axis drive mechanism, and y-axis drive mechanism can be any one of cylinder, belt drive mechanism, gear and rack mechanism, or sprocket and chain mechanism, as long as linear motion can be achieved; it should also be noted that the drive mechanisms mentioned above can be obtained from the prior art, and this application does not involve any improvement to the specific structure of the corresponding drive mechanisms.

[0037] Based on the above technical solution, the clamping device 6 includes a fifth drive mechanism 61, a sixth drive mechanism 62, a mounting plate 63, grippers 64, a drive plate 65, and a drive rod 66. The sixth drive mechanism 62 is driven to rotate by the fifth drive mechanism 61. The mounting plate 63 is fixedly mounted on the sixth drive mechanism 62. Multiple grippers are evenly arranged around the mounting plate 63 and are all inclined. One end of each gripper is hinged to the mounting plate 63, and the other end abuts against each other. The drive plate 65 is fixedly mounted on the drive shaft and is driven to reciprocate by the sixth drive mechanism 62. One end of the drive rod 66 is hinged to the drive plate 65, and the other end is hinged to the grippers 64. An air blowing port is provided on the drive shaft.

[0038] Preferably, the fifth drive mechanism is a drive motor, as long as it can drive the sixth drive mechanism to rotate; the sixth drive mechanism is an electric push rod or a cylinder, as long as it can drive the linear motion of the drive shaft.

[0039] Preferably, the clamping device 6 is driven by the driving device 8 to move in the x-axis and z-axis directions; wherein the driving device 8 can be a combination of driving components that can realize linear reciprocating motion, such as linear modules and electric push rods, as long as it can realize linear motion of the clamping device 6 in different directions.

[0040] After the gripping device 4 opens the glove's wrist opening, it moves towards the clamping device 6. The clamping device 6 moves towards the gripping device 4 under the drive of the drive device 8. The gripper 64 penetrates into the triangular opening of the wrist opening. The sixth drive mechanism 62 drives the drive plate 65 to move outward through the drive shaft. The drive rod 66 opens the end of the gripper 64 away from the mounting plate 63 under the drive of the drive plate 65. Multiple grippers then perform internal clamping within the glove's wrist opening. At this time, the air outlet on the drive shaft vents air into the glove, facilitating the second vision camera 32 to identify the finger direction of the glove. If the finger direction is correct, it is placed in the storage device 7. If the finger direction is incorrect, the fifth drive mechanism 61 drives the entire glove to rotate at the corresponding angle. Once the angle is correct, it is placed in the storage device 7.

[0041] Based on the above technical solution, the storage device 7 includes a mounting frame 71, a support plate 72, a seventh drive mechanism 73, a storage basket 74, and an eighth drive mechanism 75. The support plate 72 is symmetrically arranged above the storage basket 74 and is driven by the seventh drive mechanism 73 to rotate and connect with the mounting frame 71. The storage basket 74 is correspondingly arranged below the support plate 72. The eighth drive mechanism 75 is arranged at the bottom of the storage basket 74 and drives the storage basket to rotate.

[0042] Based on the above technical solution, the seventh drive mechanism 73 includes a second cylinder 731, a first drive rod 732, a second drive rod 733, and a rotating rod 734. The first drive rod 732 is driven by the second cylinder 731 to move in the vertical direction. The second drive rod 733 is symmetrically arranged at the ends of the second drive rod 733 and rotatably connected. The other end of the second drive rod 733 is fixedly connected to one end of the rotating rod 734. The other end of the rotating rod 734 is fixedly connected to the bearing plate 72. The rotating rod 734 is rotatably connected to the mounting bracket 71.

[0043] Preferably, the eighth drive mechanism is configured as a drive motor to realize the rotational movement of the storage basket. More preferably, the eighth drive mechanism is slidably connected to the frame, driving the storage basket to move linearly, which facilitates the unloading of stacks of gloves inside the storage basket.

[0044] After the finger orientation of the gloves is adjusted, the clamping device stops inflating the gloves and moves them to the support plate, where they are laid out. Once the preset number of gloves has been placed, the support plate rotates under the drive of the seventh drive mechanism, causing the gloves to fall into the storage basket. Then, the storage basket rotates 180 degrees under the drive of the eighth drive mechanism, reversing the orientation of the fingers and wrists for the placement of subsequent gloves, ensuring that the height of both ends of the stack of gloves is consistent. When the number of gloves in the storage basket reaches the required number for boxing, the storage basket slides outward to facilitate subsequent boxing operations, completing the sorting and storage of the gloves.

[0045] Preferably, the storage basket is formed by multiple limiting baffles, and gaps are provided between the limiting baffles; this facilitates automated boxing operations after sorting and storage.

[0046] It is understood that this application also includes a frame, on which the aforementioned devices are all installed to perform the processes of glove feeding, conveying, identification, gripping, clamping, inflation, and storage.

[0047] This application also provides a finishing method using the aforementioned automatic latex glove finishing equipment, comprising the following steps: Step 1: The feeding and suction device picks up the messy gloves and feeds them onto the conveyor. Step two: The visual recognition device identifies the wrist opening direction of the gloves on the conveyor. After identifying qualified products, the gripping device grabs them and opens the wrist opening. The gripping device can adjust the wrist opening direction for conveying. After the qualified products are conveyed, the unqualified products on the conveyor are conveyed back to the initial position. Then the feeding operation is repeated. Step 3: After the qualified product is picked up by the gripping device, it is transported to the support clamping device. The support clamping device extends into the open wrist opening and blows air in. At this time, the visual recognition device identifies the direction of the fingers after inflation. If the finger direction is qualified, the storage process is carried out. If it is not qualified, the support clamping device is rotated in the corresponding direction before storage. Step 4: After the gloves are correctly oriented on the clamping device, they are placed on the storage device. After stacking a preset number of gloves, the device is rotated at the corresponding angle. The storage process is repeated until the number of gloves reaches the required quantity for the packaged products.
