[0002] Boron carbide or silicon carbide can be used to make bulletproof armor or bulletproof inserts due to its low density, high strength and good anti-ballistic performance. The production process of boron carbide or silicon carbide ceramic sheets generally includes: mixing, granulation, pressing green bodies, and pressureless sintering. After the granulated powder is pressed into a ceramic green body of a specific size, it needs to be screened to remove cracked and broken edges, and the qualified products are placed on a plate and loaded into a graphite boat for sintering. Finally, the ceramic green body and the graphite boat are placed in a pressureless sintering furnace to sinter into ceramic products.

[0034] As attached Figure 1 -Attached Figure 5 As shown, the tray loading structure provided by the utility model comprises a conveying assembly 1, two sets of tray racks 2 and a plurality of trays 3; an empty tray station 11, a loading station 12 and a full tray station 13 are sequentially arranged on the conveying assembly 1, wherein the conveying assembly 1 is used to convey the tray 3 from the empty tray station 11 to the loading station 12, and then to the full tray station 13;

[0035] The tray rack 2 includes a support frame 21, a lifting drive member 22 and a plurality of tray mounting structures 23. The plurality of tray mounting structures 23 are arranged on the support frame 21 at intervals along a direction perpendicular to the moving plane of the conveying component 1. One tray mounting structure 23 is used to carry one tray 3, that is, one tray rack 2 can carry multiple trays 3 at intervals along the height direction, thereby increasing the loading amount. The lifting drive member 22 is used to drive the support frame 21 to lift and lower along a direction perpendicular to the moving plane of the conveying component 1, thereby driving the tray mounting structure 23 to dock or separate from the conveying component 1, wherein the lifting drive member 22 can be a cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder, an electric cylinder or a linear module;

[0036] Two sets of tray racks 2 are respectively arranged at the empty tray station 11 and the full tray station 13. The tray rack 2 located at the empty tray station 11 is used to hold the empty tray 3.

[0037] After the tray rack 2 at the empty tray station 11 carries the empty tray 3, it conveys the empty tray 3 to the conveying assembly 1 from bottom to top, that is, before loading, all the tray racks 2 at the empty tray station 11 are located above the conveying assembly 1, and each tray mounting structure 23 is mounted with an empty tray 3, the lifting drive 22 drives the material support frame 21 to descend one station, then the tray 3 at the bottom is carried on the conveying assembly 1, and is conveyed to the loading station 12 by the conveying assembly 1, after the tray 3 at the loading station 12 is filled with materials, the lifting drive 22 drives the material support frame 21 to descend one station again, then the tray 3 at the bottom is carried on the conveying assembly 1, and is conveyed to the loading station 12 by the conveying assembly 1, and the empty tray 3 is conveyed from bottom to top in this cycle;

[0038] The tray rack 2 located at the full tray station 13 is used to hold full trays 3, and the tray rack 2 located at the full tray station 13 receives the full tray 3 conveyed from the conveying assembly 1 from top to bottom, that is, before loading, the tray rack 2 located at the full tray station 13 is all located under the conveying assembly 1, and no tray 3 is installed on each tray mounting structure 23. After the tray 3 on the loading station 12 is filled with material, it is transported to the full tray station 13, and the lifting drive member 22 drives the material support frame 21 to rise one station, thereby lifting the full tray 3. At this time, the tray mounting structure 23 of the second station is in a waiting state for loading until the next tray 3 full of material is conveyed to the full tray station 13, thereby realizing the carrying of the full tray 3 from top to bottom in a cycle.

[0039] The tray loading structure provided by the utility model can realize the stacking and sequential conveying of the material trays 3, so that a group of empty material trays 3 placed from top to bottom can be transformed into a group of full material trays 3 placed from top to bottom after being filled with materials one by one.

In a preferred embodiment, the support plate 231 is an L-shaped plate body. One side of the L-shaped plate is fixed to the side frame 211 and is used to fix the side of the tray 3. The other side is used to carry the bottom of the tray 3. This arrangement facilitates the installation of the support plate 231 on the side frame 211. The tray 3 can be carried by the support plate 231 as a whole. The interval between the two opposing support plates 231 is greater than the width of the conveying assembly 1, thereby avoiding interference between the support plate 231 and the conveying assembly 1 during the lifting process.

[0042] A tray accommodating cavity 24 is formed between two adjacent groups of tray mounting structures 23. The tray accommodating cavity 24 is enclosed by an upper support plate 231, a lower support plate 231 and two side frames 211. An inlet and outlet 25 is provided on the side of the tray accommodating cavity 24 close to the loading station 12.

[0044] In one embodiment, the width of the material tray 3 is greater than the width of the conveying assembly 1 and less than the interval between the two support plates 231 , so that the material tray 3 can run stably on the conveying assembly 1 and is convenient for docking with the material tray rack 2 .

[0045] In one embodiment, the lifting drive member 22 is arranged below the conveying assembly 1, and the output end of the lifting drive member 22 acts on the connecting frame 212, so that the space above the conveying assembly 1 does not need to be occupied, making the layout reasonable.

[0046] In one preferred embodiment, the conveying assembly 1 is a roller conveying assembly, that is, the upper ends of multiple groups of rollers form a conveying plane, and the material tray 3 is carried and moved on the conveying plane formed by the multiple groups of rollers, and at least some of the rollers are powered rollers;

[0047] Lateral guide wheels 14 are provided on both sides of the conveying component 1 between the empty tray station 11 and the full tray station 13. The interval between the lateral guide wheels 14 on both sides is larger than the width of the conveying component 1 and smaller than the width of the tray 3. When the tray 3 is on the tray rack 2, the left and right positioning of the tray 3 is completed by the tray rack 2. When the tray 3 is detached from the tray rack 2, the left and right positioning of the tray 3 is completed by the lateral guide wheels 14.

[0048] The utility model also provides a ceramic piece material taking and placing plate device, comprising the above-mentioned plate loading structure and a manipulator 4;

[0049] The robot 4 is used to clamp the green ceramic sheets in the press 5 to the tray 3 on the loading station 12 for loading, thereby realizing neat and orderly loading of the green ceramic sheets pressed by the press 5. Compared with the manual loading method, the work efficiency is high, and the situation of the ceramic green sheets being knocked and damaged due to the unskilled operation of the staff is avoided, thereby improving the yield rate.

[0050] In one of the embodiments, the ceramic sheet material removal and plate arrangement equipment also includes a deburring component 6 and a weighing component 7 arranged between the press 5 and the loading station 12, so as to remove burrs and dust on the green ceramic sheet, and weigh it after the burrs and dust are removed to detect whether the weight is qualified.

[0051] In one embodiment, the robot 4 includes two sets of output ends, one of which is used to take out the green ceramic sheet from the press 5 and convey it to the weighing component 7 after passing through the deburring component 6, and the other output end is used to place the green ceramic sheet on the weighing component 7 into the tray 3 on the loading station 12, so as to improve the conveying efficiency of the green ceramic sheet and further increase the loading efficiency.
