[0020] The embodiments of the present invention are described in further detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0021] Figures 1 to 9 Shown is a schematic structural diagram of the utility model.

[0022] The accompanying drawings are marked as follows: main rail 1, first workstation guide rail 2, entry cylinder 3, entry cylinder joint 4, swing drive handle 5, swing head 6, guide slide 7, pad 8, flow control cylinder 9, flow control mounting seat 10, flow control cylinder joint 11, drive handle 12, limit hook 13, control handle 13a, cylinder mounting frame 14, rodless cylinder 15, cylinder housing 16, spiral groove 17, drive mounting seat 18, guide rod 19, lifting and conveying seat 20, lifting and connecting plate 20a, input part 20b, stop part 20c, left baffle 20d, right baffle Plate 20e, docking opening groove 20f, second workstation guide rail 21, first stop section 21a, lifting section 21b, second stop section 21c, docking guide rail 22, chain mounting seat 23, first motor 24, motor mounting seat 25, transmission chain 26, driving gear 27, gear mounting vertical plate 28, first gear 29, second gear 30, third gear 31, upper fixed plate 32, lower fixed plate 33, lifting seat 34, lifting connecting plate 34a, lifting bottom plate 34b, lifting vertical plate 34c, top plate 34d, and mounting bracket 35.

[0023] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the intelligent hanging assembly line of the utility model includes a main rail 1 for conveying hanging materials, and a plurality of workstation units are arranged along the main rail 1. The workstation unit includes a mounting bracket 35, a first workstation guide rail 2 fixed on the mounting bracket 35, a spiral descending mechanism, a lifting arm mechanism, and a second workstation guide rail 21. The hanging material is input from the main rail 1 to the first workstation guide rail 2, the spiral descending mechanism lowers the hanging material and rotates it to a certain angle before transporting it to the second workstation guide rail 21, the lifting arm mechanism transports the sewn hanging material upward along the second workstation guide rail 21, and the second workstation guide rail 21 finally controls the hanging material to be output to the main rail 1.

[0024] like Figure 3 As shown, the front end of the guide rail 2 of the first workstation is equipped with an entry mechanism connected to the main rail 1, and the entry mechanism includes an entry cylinder 3 and a swing head 6 equipped with a guide slide 7. The entry cylinder 3 is connected to the entry cylinder joint 4, and the entry cylinder joint 4 is rotatably connected to the swing drive handle 5, and the swing drive handle 5 is fixedly connected to the swing head 6. The entry cylinder 3 drives the swing head 6 to swing up and down. The front end of the swing head 6 has a guide slide 7 and a pad 8. The entry cylinder 3 can drive the swing head 6 to fall, so that the guide slide 7 contacts the main rail 1, and guides the hanging roller to enter the guide rail 2 of the first workstation along the guide slide 7. The entry cylinder 3 drives the swing head 6 to lift up, and the guide slide 7 leaves the main rail 1. The hanging roller on the main rail 1 can cross the workstation and continue to transport.

[0025] The rear end of the first workstation guide rail 2 extends to the upper working position of the spiral descending mechanism. A first flow control mechanism is installed at the rear end of the first workstation guide rail 2. After multiple materials are hung from the main rail 1 and slide to the first workstation guide rail 2 of the same workstation, they can temporarily stay at the rear end of the first workstation guide rail 2. The first flow control mechanism controls the quantity and timing of the material hanging output to the spiral descending mechanism.

[0026] like Figure 4 As shown, the first flow control mechanism includes a flow control mounting seat 10, a flow control cylinder 9 and a rotatable limit hook 13. The flow control mounting seat 10 is fixedly connected to the mounting bracket 35. The cylinder body of the flow control cylinder 9 is rotatably mounted on the flow control mounting seat 10, and the piston rod of the flow control cylinder 9 is connected to the flow control cylinder joint 11. The flow control mounting seat 10 has a mounting groove, and the limit hook 13 is rotatably mounted below the mounting groove. The driving handle 12 of the limit hook 13 passes through the mounting groove upward and is rotatably connected to the flow control cylinder joint 11. The limit hook 13 has a control handle 13a extending forward.

[0027] The flow control cylinder 9 can drive the limit hook 13 to rotate so that the rear part of the limit hook 13 is lifted, which is convenient for the last hanging roller on the first workstation guide rail 2 to be output along the track. At this time, the front control handle 13a is in a falling state, blocking other hanging rollers from sliding out of the first workstation guide rail 2. Then the flow control cylinder 9 drives the limit hook 13 to rotate so that the rear part falls down. At this time, the front control handle 13a is in a raised state. The hanging roller blocked by the control handle 13a can move a certain distance and be blocked by the rear part of the limit hook 13, so that the hanging roller stops.

[0028] like Figure 5 As shown, the spiral descending mechanism includes a cylinder mounting frame 14, a rodless cylinder 15, and a cylinder housing 16 sleeved outside the rodless cylinder 15. The upper and lower ends of the rodless cylinder 15 are fixedly connected to the mounting bracket 35 through the cylinder mounting frame 14. The rodless cylinder 15 is arranged vertically, and the cylinder housing 16 is installed outside the rodless cylinder 15. The cylinder housing 16 is formed with a spiral groove 17 along the movement direction of the slider, one end of the spiral groove 17 is located at the upper end of the cylinder housing 16, and the other end of the spiral groove 17 is located at the lower end of the cylinder housing 16.

[0029] A rotatable drive mount 18 is provided on the slider of the rodless cylinder 15, and a guide rod 19 is fixed to the drive mount 18, and the guide rod 19 passes through the spiral groove 17 and is connected to the lifting and conveying seat 20. When the slider of the rodless cylinder 15 drives the drive mount 18 to move up and down, the guide rod 19 moves along the spiral groove 17, driving the drive mount 18 to rotate in the horizontal direction. In this embodiment, when the drive mount 18 descends from the upper end to the lower end, the drive mount 18 rotates about 90 degrees, so that the lifting and conveying seat 20 just docks with the input end of the guide rail 21 of the second workstation.

[0030] According to the needs, the spiral groove 17 of the cylinder housing 16 can have different spiral degrees, and the corresponding driving mounting seat 18 can rotate at a horizontal angle of 60 to 360 degrees. The spiral descending mechanism is arranged between the output end of the first workstation guide rail 2 and the input end of the second workstation guide rail 21, so that the output end of the first workstation guide rail 2 and the input end of the second workstation guide rail 21 can have a higher drop, avoiding the defect of the prior art that the track must be used for rotation connection, resulting in a large workstation space occupation.

[0031] like Figure 6 As shown, the lifting and conveying seat 20 includes a lifting and connecting plate 20a fixedly connected to the guide rod 19, an input part 20b and a stop part 20c integrally connected to the lifting and connecting plate 20a. The bottom surface of the stop part 20c has an overall concave arc surface, which conforms to the curvature of the hanging roller in the material hanging. When the lifting and conveying seat 20 conveys the hanging roller, the hanging roller can be stably stopped. The input part 20b has an input plate that docks with the hanging roller at the end of the first workstation guide rail 2, and the hanging roller can slide into the stop part 20c along the input plate. The stop part 20c has an upwardly bent left baffle 20d and a right baffle 20e in the middle. The left baffle 20d and the right baffle 20e extend toward the input part 20b and just fit into the groove in the middle of the hanging roller to prevent the hanging roller from detaching from the lifting and conveying seat 20 due to shaking. The stop portion 20c is formed with a docking opening groove 20f between the left baffle 20d and the right baffle 20e. The docking opening groove 20f extends all the way to the rear of the stop portion 20c. The width of the docking opening groove 20f is greater than the distance between the left baffle 20d and the right baffle 20e.

[0032] After the first flow control mechanism is opened, the last material hanging on the guide rail 2 of the first workstation is caused to slide into the lifting and conveying seat 20 of the upper workstation under the action of gravity. The spiral descending mechanism transports the material hanging spirally to the lower workstation and causes the hanging roller to slide into the input end of the guide rail 21 of the second workstation.

[0033] The second workstation guide rail 21 includes a first stop section 21a, a lifting section 21b, and a second stop section 21c. A docking guide rail 22 is installed at the input end of the first stop section 21a, and the docking guide rail 22 can pass through the docking opening groove 20f and be inserted between the left baffle 20d and the right baffle 20e. When the lifting and conveying seat 20 slides downward, the docking guide rail 22 picks up the hanging roller from between the left baffle 20d and the right baffle 20e, and the hanging roller slides into the first stop section 21a along the docking guide rail 22. The first stop section 21a is a slightly inclined downward track, and the clothing guide slides to the end of the first stop section 21a for convenient sewing processing. The second stop section 21c is located above the main rail 1, and the second stop section 21c is installed with a second flow control mechanism, and the structure of the second flow control mechanism is the same as that of the first flow control mechanism. An exit mechanism is installed at the end of the second stop section 21c, and the exit mechanism has the same structure as the entry mechanism. After the sewing finished material is hung and transported to the second stop section 21c, it is controlled by the second flow control mechanism to be output to the main rail 1. The lifting section 21b connects the first stop section 21a and the second stop section 21c, and a lifting arm mechanism is provided on one side of the lifting section 21b, which is used to lift the hanging material along the lifting section 21b to the second stop section 21c.

[0034] like Figure 7 As shown, the lifting arm mechanism includes a chain mounting seat 23 fixed on a mounting bracket 35, and a first motor 24, a driving gear 27, a first gear 29, a second gear 30, a third gear 31, a transmission chain 26, and a lifting seat 34 are installed on the chain mounting seat 23. The first motor 24 is installed on the end of the chain mounting seat 23 through the motor mounting seat 25, and the power output shaft of the first motor 24 is connected to the driving gear 27. A gear mounting vertical plate 28 is fixed to the other end of the chain mounting seat 23, and the first gear 29, the second gear 30, and the third gear 31 are distributed in a triangle and are rotatably mounted on the gear mounting vertical plate 28. The transmission chain 26 is sleeved on the driving gear 27, the first gear 29, the second gear 30, and the third gear 31.

[0035] An upper fixing plate 32 is connected to the upper portion of the chain mounting seat 23 , and a lower fixing plate 33 is connected to the lower portion of the chain mounting seat 23 . The upper fixing plate 32 and the lower fixing plate 33 are fixedly connected to the second workstation guide rail 21 .

[0036] The first motor 24 drives the driving gear 27 to rotate, and the driving gear 27 drives the conveying chain 26 to move. The lifting seat 34 on the conveying chain 26 pushes the hanging roller located on the first stop section 21a and moves upward along the lifting section 21b to the second stop section 21c.

[0037] like Figure 8 As shown, the lifting seat 34 includes a lifting connecting plate 34a fixedly connected to the chain link of the conveying chain 26, and the lifting connecting plate 34a is rotatably mounted with a lifting bottom plate 34b, and a lifting vertical plate 34c is formed on one side of the lifting bottom plate 34b.

[0038] The lifting bottom plate 34b has a groove, and the arc of the groove just corresponds to the shape of the second workstation guide rail 21. When the lifting seat 34 rises, the second workstation guide rail 21 is located in the groove of the lifting bottom plate 34b. The hanging roller is located between the lifting connecting plate 34a and the second workstation guide rail 21, and can stay stably on the lifting bottom plate 34b and can be lifted along the lifting section 21b of the second workstation guide rail 21.

[0039] like Fig. 9 As shown, a rotating shaft is installed between the lifting connecting plate 34a and the lifting bottom plate 34b, and the lifting vertical plate 34c extends to the back of the lifting connecting plate 34a and is provided with a top plate portion 34d extending upward. When the lifting seat 34 rises, the lifting connecting plate 34a and the lifting bottom plate 34b are in an unfolded state, and the top plate portion 34d of the lifting vertical plate 34c abuts against the back of the lifting connecting plate 34a, limiting the unfolding angle of the lifting connecting plate 34a and the lifting bottom plate 34b. When the lifting seat 34 descends, the lifting bottom plate 34b rotates around the rotating shaft under the action of gravity and folds onto the lifting connecting plate 34a.

[0040] The best embodiment of the present invention has been explained, and various changes or modifications made by ordinary technicians in this field will not depart from the scope of the present invention.
