[0034] like Figure 1-Figure 7 As shown, the automatic palletizing equipment for barrel top and bottom covers of this embodiment includes a conveying line 1 for conveying top covers and bottom covers, a palletizing station 2 and a temporary storage station 3, respectively. A transmission assembly 4 is arranged between the palletizing station 2 and the temporary storage station 3, and the transmission assembly 4 includes:

[0035] The palletizing chain transmission group 401 is arranged on the palletizing station 2, and the transmission direction points to the temporary storage station 3.

[0036] The temporary storage chain transmission group 402 is arranged on the temporary storage station 3, and the transmission direction is the same as the transmission direction of the palletizing chain transmission group 401.

[0037] The roller group 403 is located at the center line of the temporary storage station 3, and its transmission direction is the same as that of the stacking chain transmission group 401; and the roller group 403, the stacking chain transmission group 401, and the temporary storage chain transmission group 402 are located in the same horizontal plane.

[0038] The palletizing station 2 and the temporary storage station 3 are spliced ​​end to end, and the palletizing chain transmission group 401 and the temporary storage chain transmission group 402 are independent of each other.

[0039] The length of the chain 404 of the temporary storage chain transmission group 402 and the conveying length of the roller group 403 fully cover the length of the temporary storage station 3 along the conveying direction.

[0040] The stacking chain transmission group 401 and the temporary storage chain transmission group 402 are both symmetrically provided with two chains 404, and the two chains 404 of the same group are respectively located at two opposite sides of the conveying direction of the workstation.

[0041] A chain rail 405 for supporting the chain 404 is provided below the chain 404 .

[0042] The palletizing station 2 comprises a lifting base plate 201 , and a lifting cylinder 202 is arranged below the lifting base plate 201 .

[0043] The conveying lines 1 for conveying the top cover and the conveying lines 1 for conveying the bottom cover are symmetrically arranged, and a pallet position 5 is arranged between the two conveying lines 1 .

[0044] A robot arm 101 is disposed above each conveying line 1 , and the robot arm 101 grabs one or more covers at a time.

[0045] The robot arm 101 reciprocates in the x-direction and the z-direction.

[0046] The robot arm 101 is provided with suction cups 102 , and the number of suction cups 102 on the robot arm 101 matches the width of the pallet.

[0047] The specific structure and working principle of the utility model are as follows:

[0048] This equipment is mainly used for automatic palletizing of the top and bottom covers of steel drum covers during the production of semi-finished products. It can palletize the top and bottom covers at the same time, or palletize the top or bottom covers separately according to needs. It has a high degree of automation and reduces labor intensity.

[0049] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, one of the configurations is shown, with a pallet position 5 in the middle for placing pallets required by the conveyor lines 1 on both sides. The conveyor lines 1 on both sides have the same structure and are symmetrically arranged, and any conveyor line 1 can be used for transporting and stacking top covers or bottom covers.

[0050] Take the conveyor line 1 on one side as an example. Figure 3 As shown, the conveyor line 1 includes a belt conveyor line 1, which is used to convey the top cover or bottom cover of the previous process to the side of the stacking station 2. In order to prevent the belt conveyor line 1 from continuously conveying the top cover or bottom cover and causing it to fall, a cylinder can be set at the front end of the belt conveyor line 1, and the cylinder piston rod is extended in time to block it. For the convenience of description, the top cover or bottom cover is collectively referred to as a cover.

[0051] A palletizing station 2 and a temporary storage station 3 are arranged on the side of the belt conveyor line 1 facing the pallet position 5. A robot 101 is arranged horizontally above the belt conveyor line 1 and the palletizing station 2. The robot 101 is perpendicular to the output direction and the longitudinal direction.

[0052] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the palletizing station 2 and the temporary storage station 3 are located in the same horizontal plane and are connected to each other. Figure 6 and Figure 7A stacking chain transmission group 401 is provided on the stacking station 2, and a temporary storage chain transmission group 402 is provided on the temporary storage station 3. The stacking chain transmission group 401 and the temporary storage chain transmission group 402 are symmetrically provided with two chains 404 on both sides of the corresponding station, and the chains 404 are driven by a motor and a sprocket.

[0053] A roller group 403 having the same length as the chain 404 is also arranged in the middle position of the temporary storage station 3. The roller group 403 is a non-powered roller, which mainly plays the role of reducing friction and providing intermediate support.

[0054] A lifting cylinder 202 is arranged below the lifting bottom plate 201 of the palletizing station 2. In the initial state, the piston rod of the lifting cylinder 202 is in an extended state. As the lids are stacked, the lifting cylinder 202 gradually retracts until the descending height meets the height of the lids to be stacked once.

[0055] Combined with reference Figure 5 In order to improve the efficiency of grabbing lids, the robot 101 is provided with at least two suction cups 102. The lids grabbed by the two parallel suction cups 102 are just close to the width of the tray, as shown in the structure shown in the attached figure. Two grabs can complete the stacking of a layer of lids.

[0056] When the above structure is used, when the lids are conveyed to the material picking position of the automatic stacking robot 101 through the belt conveyor line 1, the automatic stacking robot 101 absorbs two lids at a time through the electromagnet suction cup 102 and places them on the pallet, and then four lids are placed on the pallet in turn. According to the placement height of the lids, the lowering height is adjusted in turn until the height of the lids on each pallet reaches the set height, and then they are conveyed to the full material temporary storage through the chain 404, waiting for the forklift to transport them.

[0057] The above description is an explanation of the utility model, not a limitation of the utility model. The scope of the utility model is defined by the claims. Any form of modification can be made within the protection scope of the utility model.
