Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field, in particular to a sheet material collecting line with automatic stacking function. Background Art

[0002] With the development of the economy, the requirements for automated lines are getting higher and higher, and the use of sheet materials is increasing. Therefore, the requirements for the material recovery speed after sheet material processing are getting higher and higher. Manual material collection cannot meet the production requirements. Manual material unloading is often encountered in production. The time saved in unloading seriously limits the production rhythm, and the entire production line will stagnate or slow down, which will limit the speed and efficiency of production. If the production demand is high, manual material collection can no longer meet the rapid production demand, resulting in limited production capacity. There are certain disadvantages, and manual material collection at special workstations may pose a risk of injury.

[0003] The usual sheet material collection is done by manual picking, handling, and placing of repeated operations. The operation process cannot guarantee the production rhythm, and the efficiency can only be guaranteed by the proficiency of the workers. In order to save time and reduce accidents, various auxiliary fixtures and semi-automatic unloading equipment have emerged, but this type of equipment only improves a certain part of the production, and the production rhythm of large-scale production products cannot be improved. Utility Model Content

[0004] The utility model aims at the technical problems existing in the prior art and provides a sheet material collection line with automatic stacking to solve the problem of low sheet material recovery efficiency.

[0005] The utility model solves the above-mentioned technical problems with the following technical solutions: a sheet material collection line with automatic stacking, comprising a sheet material conveying line for conveying sheets, wherein the sheet material conveying line is provided with a sheet material aligning mechanism, a sheet material taking mechanism and a sheet material placing mechanism in sequence along the sheet material conveying direction; the sheet material aligning mechanism is used for centering the sheets conveyed on the sheet material conveying line, and the sheet material taking mechanism is used for extracting the sheets that have been centered and stacked in sequence on the sheet material placing mechanism.

[0006] On the basis of the above technical solution, the present invention can also be improved as follows.

[0007] Furthermore, the sheet material aligning mechanism comprises two sets of positioning plates arranged opposite to each other, and a double-headed screw drive assembly connected to the two sets of positioning plates; the double-headed screw drive assembly can drive the two sets of positioning plates to move closer or farther synchronously.

[0008] Furthermore, the sheet material conveying line is also provided with a position sensor for detecting the position of the sheet material between the two groups of positioning plates.

[0009] Furthermore, the plate-taking mechanism includes a transfer frame, a moving assembly, an air suction gripper and a telescopic cylinder; the transfer frame is installed above the plate conveying line and is connected to the moving assembly; the air suction gripper is connected to the transfer frame through a telescopic cylinder.

[0010] Furthermore, the plate placing mechanism includes a lifting platform and a lifting component connected to the lifting platform.

[0011] Furthermore, sheet material guide plates are provided on both sides of the loading end of the sheet material conveying line, and a guiding bevel is formed at the front end of the sheet material guide plate.

[0012] Furthermore, a sheet material limiting baffle is also installed at the unloading end of the sheet material conveying line.

[0013] Moreover, the automatic stacking and collecting sheet material line provided by the utility model has at least the following beneficial effects compared with the prior art: the sheet material arranging mechanism ensures that the sheets are neatly arranged in the conveying direction. Subsequently, the sheet taking mechanism extracts the sheets from the arranged sheets and places them on the sheet placing mechanism.

[0019] The principles and features of the present invention are described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. The examples given are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0020] It should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installed", "connected" and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integrally formed structure. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of such terms in this patent can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0021] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the utility model is designed with an automatic stacking and collecting sheet material line, including a sheet material conveying line 1 for conveying sheets, wherein the sheet material conveying line 1 is provided with a sheet material aligning mechanism 2, a sheet material taking mechanism 3 and a sheet material placing mechanism 4 in sequence along the sheet material conveying direction; the sheet material aligning mechanism 2 is used to center the sheets conveyed on the sheet material conveying line 1, and the sheet material taking mechanism 3 is used to extract the sheets that have been centered and aligned and stack them in sequence on the sheet material placing mechanism 4; the sheets are conveyed from the sheet material conveying line 1 and are centered and aligned by the sheet material aligning mechanism 2. The sheet material aligning mechanism ensures that the sheets are neatly arranged in the conveying direction. Subsequently, the sheet material taking mechanism 3 extracts the sheets from the aligned sheets and places them on the sheet material placing mechanism 4. The sheet material placing mechanism can stack and collect the extracted sheets to realize automatic stacking, and the automatic sheet collection reduces manual intervention, improves production efficiency, and makes the materials neatly stacked for subsequent processing.

[0022] As an embodiment, the sheet material aligning mechanism 2 comprises two sets of positioning plates 2.1 arranged opposite to each other, and a double-headed screw drive assembly 2.2 connected to the two sets of positioning plates 2.1; the double-headed screw drive assembly 2.2 can drive the two sets of positioning plates 2.1 to approach or move away synchronously. When the double-headed screw drive assembly 2.2 drives the two sets of positioning plates to approach, they will guide the conveyed sheet material to gradually center; conversely, when the double-headed screw drive assembly 2.2 drives the two sets of positioning plates to move away, the sheet material can pass smoothly.

[0023] In addition, the sheet conveyor line 1 is also provided with a position sensor 2.3 for detecting the position of the sheet between the two sets of positioning plates 2.1. The position sensor 2.3 can adopt a detection grating, which emits light and detects whether the light is blocked, so as to judge whether the sheet is in the correct position. When the sheet deviates from the preset position, the detection grating will send a signal, triggering the corresponding control mechanism, adjusting the working state of the double-headed screw drive assembly 2.2, driving the positioning plate 2.1 to adjust the position, and ensuring that the sheet always remains centered during the conveying process.

[0024] As an embodiment, the plate-taking mechanism 3 includes a transfer frame 3.1, a moving component 3.2, an air suction gripper 3.3 and a telescopic cylinder 3.4; the transfer frame 3.1 is erected above the sheet conveyor line 1 and is connected to the moving component 3.2; the air suction gripper 3.3 is connected to the transfer frame 3.1 via a telescopic cylinder 3.4.

[0025] In this embodiment, the moving assembly 3.2 can be a driving device such as a motor or a cylinder, which is used to control the movement of the transfer frame in the sheet conveying direction; the air suction gripper 3.3 is connected to the transfer frame 3.1 through a telescopic cylinder 3.4. The telescopic cylinder 3.4 is used to control the telescopic movement of the air suction gripper in the vertical direction to adapt to sheets of different heights and thicknesses.

[0026] When the plate-taking mechanism needs to extract the plate, the moving component 3.2 drives the transfer frame 3.1 to move to a suitable position along the plate conveying line 1. The telescopic cylinder 3.4 drives the air suction gripper 3.3 to extend downward to absorb the plate. Then, the moving component 3.2 drives the transfer frame 3.1 to move backward, remove the absorbed plate from the plate conveying line 1, and place it on the plate placing mechanism 4.

[0027] As an implementation method, Figure 3 As shown, the plate placing mechanism 4 includes a lifting platform 4.1 and a lifting assembly 4.2 connected to the lifting platform 4.1. When the plate taking mechanism 3 places the plate material on the lifting platform 4.1, the lifting assembly 4.2 drives the lifting platform to descend, so that the plate material is placed in the stacking area below the plate placing mechanism. As the plate material is continuously taken out and stacked, the lifting platform will rise or fall as needed to keep the plate material height in the stacking area moderate.

[0028] Through the cooperation of the lifting platform 4.1 and the lifting assembly 4.2, the plate placing mechanism can stack the extracted plates in an orderly manner and keep the stacking neat, which is convenient for subsequent processing and transportation. This design improves production efficiency and automation, and reduces manual intervention and operation difficulty.

[0029] As a supplement, the lifting assembly 4.2 can adopt a variety of driving modes, and the specific selection depends on the application scenario and actual needs, such as motor drive, pneumatic lifting and hydraulic lifting, etc., which will not be described in detail here.

[0030] It should be noted that the automatic stacking and collecting sheet material line designed in the present invention can be equipped with a sheet material cart at the unloading end of the sheet material conveyor line 1, so that the sheets stacked on the lifting platform 4.1 can be directly placed on the sheet material cart for subsequent transportation.

[0031] As an embodiment, both sides of the feeding end of the sheet material conveying line 1 are provided with sheet material guide plates 5, and the front end of the sheet material guide plates 5 is formed with a guiding bevel.

[0032] The sheet guide plate 5 is located at both sides of the feeding end of the sheet conveyor line 1, and a guide bevel is formed at its front end. The design of the guide bevel allows the sheet entering the conveyor line to be gradually centered along the bevel, avoiding the sheet from lateral deviation or deviation during the conveying process.

[0033] As an embodiment, the unloading end of the sheet material conveyor line 1 is also equipped with a sheet material limit baffle 6. When the sheet material passes through the conveyor line and reaches the unloading end, the sheet material limit baffle can block the sheet material from continuing to move forward, and at the same time prevent the sheet material from sliding or deviating from the preset falling position due to inertia.

[0034] It should be noted that, in this article, the terms "include", "comprises" or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, article or device including a series of elements includes not only those elements, but also includes other elements not explicitly listed, or also includes elements inherent to such process, method, article or device. Unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installed", "connected" and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection, or it can be an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal communication of two elements. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the utility model can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0035] Although the preferred embodiments of the utility model have been described, those skilled in the art may make other changes and modifications to these embodiments once they have learned the basic creative concept. Therefore, the appended claims are intended to be interpreted as including the preferred embodiments and all changes and modifications falling within the scope of the utility model.

[0036] Obviously, those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications to the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Thus, if these modifications and variations of the present invention fall within the scope of the claims of the present invention and their equivalents, the present invention is also intended to include these modifications and variations.
