Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of glove packaging technology, and more specifically to a packing and palletizing equipment and method for glove packaging. Background Technology

[0002] In automated glove packaging production, gloves are boxed to form uniformly sized glove boxes. These boxes are then stacked and placed into cartons, sealed, and output, completing the final packaging. This boxing and palletizing process is a crucial link at the end of the glove packaging production line, and its level of automation and production cycle directly affect the overall capacity and efficiency of the line.

[0003] The existing glove packaging and palletizing equipment mainly suffers from the following technical problems:

[0004] 1. The processing of glove boxes and cartons is separate and lacks coordination, limiting the overall line speed: In the existing equipment, the glove box inspection, conveying, and palletizing processes and the carton opening, bottom sealing, and top sealing processes are mostly completed by separate equipment. There is a lack of timing coordination between processes. If one process stops, the entire process stops. It is difficult to improve the overall line speed and cannot meet the needs of high-speed automated production.

[0005] 2. Inadequate glove box inspection and screening, defective products easily enter the packing process: The inspection process for glove boxes in the existing equipment is scattered or missing. Weighing, appearance, and metal foreign object detection are not integrated on the same conveyor line. The screening and diversion mechanism is inadequate, and defective products can easily mix with qualified products and enter the packing process, affecting the quality of finished products and increasing rework costs.

[0006] 3. The various stages of carton processing are scattered and have a low degree of automation: Currently, the processes of opening, sealing the bottom, folding, packing, and sealing the top of the carton are completed by independent equipment. The transfer of cartons between different equipment relies on manual labor or simple conveyor lines. The folding action requires manual assistance to adjust the posture of the carton. The low degree of automation affects packing efficiency and consistency. Summary of the Invention

[0018] A screening mechanism is disposed between the synchronous belt transfer mechanism and the transplanting conveyor line. The screening mechanism can move up and down to distribute qualified glove boxes to different heights of the conveyor line in the transplanting conveyor line.

[0019] The NG flow channel is located at the end of the screening mechanism away from the transplanting conveyor line and is used to receive defective glove boxes.

[0020] The buffer and push mechanism is located at the end of the transplanting conveyor line and is used to buffer qualified glove boxes and push them to the packing station in a set quantity.

[0021] The carton handling system includes the following components arranged sequentially along the carton conveying direction:

[0022] The carton opening component is used to store cartons of different sizes and can automatically open and reassemble the cartons before outputting them.

[0023] Bottom sealing tape mechanism, used to seal the bottom of the carton;

[0024] A folding mechanism is used to change the spatial orientation of the carton so that the opening of the carton corresponds to the pushing direction of the glove box;

[0025] The first sealing tape mechanism is used to seal the top of the finished carton;

[0026] The cache push mechanism pushes the glove box into the carton located at the packing station.

[0027] Preferably, the unpacking assembly includes:

[0028] Two adjustable hoppers are used to store vertically stacked cartons, and their internal widths can be adjusted independently to accommodate cartons of different sizes.

[0029] Two lifting and adjusting mechanisms are respectively located at the bottom of the two width-adjustable hoppers, and are used to drive the corresponding width-adjustable hoppers to rise and fall in the vertical direction to adjust the picking height of the carton;

[0030] Two material blocking mechanisms are located at the discharge ends of the two adjustable-width hoppers, respectively, and are used to separate the stacked cartons in their respective adjustable-width hoppers one by one.

[0031] The material handling mechanism is located between two symmetrically arranged adjustable-width hoppers and is used to take out cartons from the discharge ends of the two adjustable-width hoppers and transfer them to the next work station.

[0033] Two bottom folding mechanisms are used to fold the bottom flaps of the unfolded carton again.

[0034] Preferably, the buffering and pushing mechanism includes a buffering mechanism and a paper box pushing mechanism. The buffering mechanism is used to stack and buffer the delivered glove boxes according to a set number of layers, and the paper box pushing mechanism is used to push the buffered glove boxes into the carton.

[0035] Preferably, the first sealing tape mechanism includes a lifting mechanism and a top sealing tape mechanism, wherein the lifting mechanism is used to drive the top sealing tape mechanism to lift and lower to adapt to cartons of different heights.

[0036] Preferably, the folding mechanism includes a suction cup assembly, a flipping drive assembly, and a roller conveyor line. The suction cup assembly is used to adsorb and fix the carton, and the flipping drive assembly is used to drive the suction cup assembly to flip the carton 90°.

[0037] Preferably, the bottom sealing tape mechanism includes a belt traction mechanism and a carton sealing core. The belts on both sides clamp the carton and move synchronously to pull the carton to transfer. During the carton transfer process, the carton sealing core completes the sealing tape action on the bottom of the carton.

[0038] The present invention also discloses a packing and stacking method for glove packaging, including a glove box processing step and a carton processing step, wherein the glove box processing step and the carton processing step are independent of each other in sequence;

[0039] The glove box processing procedure includes the following steps:

[0040] S1: After the glove box is weighed by the weighing device, it is lifted by the Z-axis transfer module, and then picked up and transferred by the adsorption transfer module to the synchronous belt transfer mechanism. During the transport process of the synchronous belt transfer mechanism, the visual inspection mechanism and the metal detector perform appearance inspection and metal foreign object detection respectively.

[0041] S2: The screening mechanism adjusts its height to match the target conveyor line based on the test results and distributes the glove box to the corresponding conveyor line in the transplanting conveyor line;

[0042] S3: Qualified glove boxes are cached by the buffer and push mechanism and pushed into the carton according to the set quantity;

[0043] The cardboard box processing procedure includes the following steps:

[0044] S4: After the carton opening component is adapted and adjusted according to different carton specifications, the carton is automatically opened, formed and output. The bottom sealing tape mechanism completes the bottom sealing, and the folding mechanism changes the spatial posture of the carton so that the carton opening corresponds to the glove box pushing direction, and then the carton is conveyed.

[0045] S5: The buffer pushing mechanism pushes the glove box into the carton. After the carton is packed, it is reset by the folding mechanism and then the top is sealed by the first sealing tape mechanism before being discharged.

[0046] Preferably, the method by which the unpacking component provides the carton is as follows:

[0047] Two adjustable hoppers are used to store vertically stacked cartons, and the internal width of each hopper can be adjusted independently according to the width of the cartons.

[0048] The lifting and adjusting mechanisms drive the corresponding width-adjustable hoppers to rise and fall vertically, so that the top carton is at the preset picking height;

[0049] The material blocking mechanism separates the cartons one by one at the discharge end;

[0050] The material handling mechanism alternately removes cartons from the discharge ends of the two adjustable-width hoppers and transfers them to the carton opening mechanism;

[0051] The unpacking mechanism unfolds the removed cardboard box into shape;

[0052] Two downward folding mechanisms fold the bottom flaps of the unfolded carton again.

[0053] Preferably, in step S2, the screening mechanism divides the products based on the combined results of weighing, appearance, and metal detection. When the product passes the inspection, the screening mechanism rises to a height position that matches the qualified product conveyor line and sends the glove box into the qualified product conveyor line. When the product fails the inspection, the screening mechanism moves to a height position that matches the NG flow channel and sends the glove box into the NG flow channel.

[0054] Preferably, in step S3, the cache push mechanism stacks the cache glove boxes in a set number of layers, and after reaching the set number, the paper box push mechanism pushes them into the carton.

[0055] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows:

[0056] 1. By setting up a glove box processing system consisting of a weighing device, a Z-axis transfer module, an adsorption transfer module, a synchronous belt transfer mechanism, a vision inspection mechanism, a metal detector, a transfer conveyor line, a screening mechanism, an NG flow channel, and a buffer push mechanism, the glove box undergoes a fully automated process of weighing and detection, lifting and transfer, appearance inspection, metal foreign object detection, screening and diversion, buffer stacking, and pushing into the box. In conjunction with the carton processing system's opening components, bottom sealing tape mechanism, folding mechanism, and first sealing tape mechanism, the carton undergoes a fully automated process of opening, bottom sealing, folding opening orientation, packing, and top sealing. The glove box processing process and the carton processing process are independent of each other in terms of timing.

[0057] The resulting technical benefits are: parallel automated processing and collaborative packing of glove boxes and cartons are achieved; the detection, conveying, and buffering of glove boxes do not interfere with the feeding, forming, and sealing of cartons, and only need to be completed at the packing station, thereby improving the overall efficiency and production cycle of the packing and palletizing equipment.

[0058] 2. Through multi-level inspection and screening of weighing, visual inspection and metal inspection in the glove box processing process, the screening mechanism is raised and lowered to a height position that matches the target conveyor line according to the comprehensive inspection results. The qualified glove boxes are assigned to the corresponding conveyor line in the transfer conveyor line, and the unqualified glove boxes are sent into the NG channel for discharge. In conjunction with the buffer pushing mechanism, the glove boxes are stacked and buffered according to the set number of layers and then pushed into the box.

[0059] The technical effects achieved are: multi-level quality inspection and automatic sorting of glove boxes are realized. The three inspection links of weighing, appearance and metal foreign objects are strictly controlled at each level. If any link fails to meet the requirements, the glove box will be rejected, which will prevent defective products from flowing into the packing process and ensure the quality and reliability of the packed products. At the same time, the buffer stacking makes the glove boxes form a regular stack shape before entering the box, which improves the neatness of the packing.

[0060] 3. The automatic opening and forming output of the carton by the carton opening component in the carton processing process, the bottom sealing tape mechanism to complete the bottom sealing, the folding mechanism to change the spatial posture of the carton so that the carton opening corresponds to the glove box pushing direction, the folding mechanism to reset after packing, and the first sealing tape mechanism to complete the top sealing are connected in sequence. The glove box processing process and the carton processing process are independent of each other in terms of timing, and only need to be connected at the packing station.

[0061] The resulting technical benefits are: a parallel and independent processing flow has been formed for glove boxes from detection to buffering and for cartons from opening to sealing. The two systems run continuously without waiting for each other. The packing action only needs to be completed instantly after both are in place, which effectively avoids the cycle bottleneck of stopping everything when one stops in the traditional serial operation, and significantly improves the overall production efficiency and equipment utilization rate.

[0084] Example 1:

[0085] Reference Figures 1-15 The present invention discloses a packing and palletizing device for glove packaging, comprising:

[0086] In order to achieve automated processing and collaborative packing and palletizing of glove boxes and cartons, in this embodiment: a frame 1, and a glove box processing system, a carton processing system and a control system installed on the frame 1.

[0087] To achieve automatic weighing, inspection, screening, and buffering of glove boxes, in this embodiment, the glove box processing system includes: a weighing device 6 for weighing and inspecting the glove boxes; a Z-axis transfer module 10 for lifting the weighed glove boxes; an adsorption transfer module 11 for picking up and transferring the lifted glove boxes to a synchronous belt transfer mechanism 7; a synchronous belt transfer mechanism 7 for conveying the glove boxes; a visual inspection mechanism 8 and a metal detector 9 for performing appearance inspection and metal foreign object detection, respectively, during the conveying of the glove boxes by the synchronous belt transfer mechanism 7; a transfer conveyor line 12, including conveyor lines at different heights for conveying qualified gloves; and a screening mechanism 13, located on the synchronous belt transfer mechanism. Between the loading mechanism 7 and the transfer conveyor line 12, the screening mechanism 13 is vertically movable and used to distribute qualified glove boxes to different heights on the transfer conveyor line 12. An NG flow channel, located at the end of the screening mechanism 13 away from the transfer conveyor line 12, is used to receive unqualified glove boxes. A buffer and push mechanism 14, located at the end of the transfer conveyor line 12, is used to buffer qualified glove boxes and push them to the packing station in a set quantity. The buffer and push mechanism 14 includes a buffer mechanism 141 and a paper box pushing mechanism 142. The buffer mechanism 141 is used to stack and buffer the incoming glove boxes according to a set number of layers, and the paper box pushing mechanism 142 is used to push the buffered glove boxes into the carton. Through the sequential connection of the various modules of the glove box processing system, the glove boxes undergo fully automated processing including weighing, lifting, transferring, conveying, appearance inspection, metal detection, screening and diversion, buffering and stacking, and pushing into the carton, realizing automatic feeding and packing preparation of glove boxes.

[0088] To achieve automatic feeding, opening, bottom sealing, folding, and top sealing of cartons, in this embodiment: the carton processing system includes, sequentially arranged along the carton conveying direction: a carton opening assembly 2, used to store cartons of different specifications, and capable of automatically opening and forming the cartons before outputting them; the carton opening assembly 2 includes: two adjustable-width hoppers, each used to store vertically stacked cartons, and each hopper's internal width can be independently adjusted to accommodate cartons of different specifications; and two lifting adjustment mechanisms, respectively located at the bottom of the two adjustable-width hoppers, for... Each adjustable-width hopper is driven to move vertically up and down to adjust the carton picking height; two blocking mechanisms, located at the discharge ends of the two adjustable-width hoppers, are used to separate the stacked cartons in their respective hoppers one by one; a picking mechanism, located between the two symmetrically arranged adjustable-width hoppers, is used to pick up the cartons from the discharge ends of the two hoppers and transfer them to the next station; an opening mechanism, located downstream of the picking mechanism, is used to assist in unfolding the picked-up cartons; and two downward folding mechanisms... The first part describes a folding mechanism for folding the bottom flap of an unfolded carton. The second part describes a bottom sealing tape mechanism for sealing the bottom of the carton. The bottom sealing tape mechanism includes a belt traction mechanism and a sealing core. The belts on both sides clamp the carton and move synchronously to pull the carton for transfer. The sealing core completes the sealing tape action on the bottom of the carton during the transfer process. The third part describes a folding mechanism for changing the spatial posture of the carton so that the opening of the carton corresponds to the pushing direction of the glove box. The folding mechanism includes a suction cup assembly, a flipping drive assembly, and a roller conveyor. The conveyor belt and suction cup assembly are used to adhere and fix the cartons. The flipping drive assembly drives the suction cup assembly to flip the cartons 90°. After packing, the roller conveyor belt continues to transport the cartons to the next process, realizing the continuous connection of carton folding, conveying and packing. The first sealing tape mechanism 5 is used to seal the top of the packed cartons. The first sealing tape mechanism 5 includes a lifting mechanism 51 and a top sealing tape mechanism 52. The lifting mechanism 51 drives the top sealing tape mechanism 52 to rise and fall to adapt to cartons of different heights. The cartons undergo a full process of opening, bottom sealing tape, folding opening orientation, packing and top sealing tape. The opening assembly 2 realizes continuous feeding and automatic opening and forming of cartons. The lifting mechanism 51 enables the top sealing tape mechanism 52 to adapt to cartons of different heights, improving the versatility and automation of the equipment.

[0089] To achieve coordinated packing of glove boxes and cartons, in this embodiment: the buffer push mechanism 14 pushes the glove boxes into the cartons located at the packing station. The buffer push mechanism 14 pushes the stacked glove boxes horizontally into the cartons with the bottom sealing tape already applied and flips them over so that the opening faces upward, completing the packing process and realizing the coordinated operation of the two processing systems for glove boxes and cartons.

[0090] See Figures 1-15This embodiment provides a packing and palletizing method for glove packaging, employing the packing and palletizing equipment for glove packaging as described in Embodiment 1. The method includes a glove box processing step and a carton processing step, which are sequentially independent of each other.

[0091] The glove box processing procedure includes the following steps:

[0092] S1: The glove box is weighed by the weighing device 6 to reject products that do not meet the weight requirements. After weighing, the Z-axis transfer module 10 lifts the glove box vertically to a preset height. The adsorption transfer module 11 picks up the lifted glove box and transfers it to the synchronous belt transfer mechanism 7. During the transport of the glove box by the synchronous belt transfer mechanism 7, the vision inspection mechanism 8 and the metal detector 9 perform appearance inspection and metal foreign object detection on the glove box, respectively. The vision inspection mechanism 8 judges whether the appearance of the glove box is qualified through image acquisition and analysis, such as whether there is damage, stains, printing defects, etc., while the metal detector 9 detects whether there are metal foreign objects inside the glove box through the principle of electromagnetic induction.

[0093] S2: The screening mechanism 13 sorts the glove boxes based on the combined results of weighing, appearance, and metal detection. Specifically, if any of the three detection steps fails, the glove box is deemed a defective product. The screening mechanism 13 rises and falls to a height position compatible with the target conveyor line based on the detection results, assigning the glove box to the corresponding conveyor line in the transfer conveyor line 12. When the detection is successful, the screening mechanism 13 rises to a height position compatible with the successful product conveyor line, and the glove box naturally transitions to the successful product conveyor line under the conveyor of the synchronous belt transfer mechanism 7. When the detection is unsuccessful, the screening mechanism 13 moves to a height position compatible with the NG flow channel, and the pushing component pushes the glove box into the NG flow channel, from where it is conveyed to the defective product collection area.

[0094] S3: Qualified glove boxes are buffered by the buffer pushing mechanism 14 and pushed into the carton according to a set quantity. Specifically, qualified glove boxes are sequentially conveyed to the buffer mechanism 141 via the qualified product conveyor line. The lifting platform of the buffer mechanism 141 descends layer by layer according to a set number of layers to receive the sequentially conveyed glove boxes. When the number of glove boxes stacked in the buffer mechanism 141 reaches the set number of layers, the carton pushing mechanism 142 is activated, pushing the entire stack of glove boxes horizontally out of the buffer mechanism 141, ready to be pushed into the carton.

[0095] The cardboard box processing procedure includes the following steps:

[0096] S4: After adapting and adjusting to different sizes of cartons, the unpacking component 2 automatically unpacks and shapes the cartons and outputs them.

[0097] The specific workflow of component 2 is as follows:

[0098] First, two adjustable-width hoppers store vertically stacked cartons. The adjustable-width motor drives a lifting screw to rotate via a synchronous belt pulley mechanism, causing the side baffles to move relative to the backing plate, independently adjusting the internal width of each hopper according to the width of the cartons. The lifting servo motor of the lifting adjustment mechanism drives the two lifting transmission components to move synchronously up and down through a transmission pulley, synchronous belt, tension wheel, and limit wheel, adjusting the height of the adjustable-width hoppers.

[0099] Then, the material blocking mechanism separates the cartons one by one at the discharge end. The dual-output servo lifting module drives the material blocking rod group to reciprocate in the vertical direction. When the material blocking rod group descends, it blocks the downward movement of the stacked cartons, and when it rises, it releases a single carton, thus realizing the separation of cartons one by one.

[0100] Next, the picking mechanism alternately removes cartons from the discharge ends of the two adjustable-width hoppers and transfers them to the carton opening mechanism. The picking servo drive module drives the carrier to reciprocate between the two adjustable-width hoppers, alternately picking up cartons from the discharge ends of the two hoppers. The servo drive component drives the second suction cup component to slide relative to the fixed first suction cup component according to the width of the carton, adjusting the distance between the two suction cup components to accommodate cartons of different widths.

[0101] Subsequently, the unpacking mechanism unfolds the removed carton. The folding motor drives the folding plate to flip, initially folding the bottom folds of the carton to pre-bend them into place.

[0102] Finally, the two bottom folding mechanisms fold the unfolded bottom flap of the carton again. This two-step folding avoids tearing of the cardboard or excessively deep creases caused by a single large-angle bend, ensuring that the flaps are folded flat and without damage.

[0103] After the carton is formed, it is sealed at the bottom by the bottom sealing tape mechanism 3. The two side belts clamp the carton from both sides and move synchronously, transferring the carton along the conveyor direction. During this transfer, the sealing mechanism applies and presses tape onto the bottom of the carton, completing the next sealing tape. The bottom-sealed carton then passes through the folding mechanism 4 to change its spatial orientation so that the carton opening corresponds to the glove box's push-in direction. The suction cup assembly of the folding mechanism 4 adheres to the carton, and the flipping drive assembly drives the suction cup assembly to flip the carton 90°, changing its orientation from an upward-facing position to an opening facing the discharge direction of the push-box mechanism 142, facilitating the push-in of the glove box.

[0104] S5: The paper box pushing mechanism 142 of the buffer pushing mechanism 14 pushes the glove boxes into the carton, completing the packing. Specifically, the paper box pushing mechanism 142 adopts a three-stage telescopic structure to push out the boxes in stages. The pushing stroke is adjusted according to the number of layers of glove boxes in the buffer mechanism 141, so that the entire stack of glove boxes is smoothly pushed into the carton. After the packing is completed, the carton is reset by the folding mechanism 4, so that the carton returns to the position with the opening facing upward. Subsequently, the lifting mechanism 51 automatically adjusts the height of the top sealing tape mechanism 52 according to the height of the carton. The top sealing tape mechanism 52 runs from left to right along the top of the carton, attaching and pressing the top sealing tape to the fold seam at the top of the carton, completing the top sealing. After the top sealing is completed, the carton is sent out of the equipment by the discharge roller conveyor line to enter the next process.

[0105] In this embodiment, the glove box processing step and the carton processing step are independent in sequence. They can be performed simultaneously or sequentially, as long as the glove boxes and cartons are in place at the packing station, the packing action in step S5 can be executed. The equipment control system uses sensors to detect the material arrival status at each station and coordinates the cycle time of the two processes to achieve continuous automated production.

[0106] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention in any way. Although the present invention has been disclosed above with reference to preferred embodiments, it is not intended to limit the present invention.
