[0002] A handling device is a device or system used to move, transfer or position items, materials or goods. These devices can be manually operated or automated and are widely used in various industries such as manufacturing, logistics, warehousing, etc.

[0003] However, due to the rise of vending machines, automatic pizza vending machines have also begun to enter the market. However, the existing pizza vending machines need to take the pizza out of the storage device and then put it into the oven for heating, so a transport device is needed to transport the pizza;

[0004] However, current handling devices generally use mechanical grippers or suction nozzles to transport goods, but they are obviously not suitable for pizza, because the pizza will be damaged by gripping or sucking with a suction nozzle. In addition, it is inconvenient to place the pizza in the oven or take the baked pizza out of the oven when using mechanical grippers or suction nozzles to transport the pizza.

[0005] In view of this, it is necessary to propose a new technical solution to solve the above technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0034] Reference Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a pizza transport mechanism comprises:

[0035] Travel device 1;

[0036] The manipulator 2 comprises at least two fork rods 21 and a push block or a push plate 22; the fork rods 21 are arranged on the push block or the push plate 22, and the push block or the push plate 22 is arranged on the stroke device.

[0037] The plane of the push block or push plate 22 is higher than the plane of the fork rod 21, or the plane of the push block or push plate 22 is lower than the plane of the fork rod 21 as needed; in this embodiment, the plane of the push block or push plate 22 is preferably higher than the plane of the fork rod 21;

[0038] Specifically, when the travel device 1 drives the push block or the push plate 22 to move forward, the fork rod 21 is also driven by the push block or the push plate 22 to move forward, and the fork rod 21 is directly inserted under the pizza 4 to be baked. Then, the external driving mechanism drives the travel device 1 to move upward. When the fork rod 21 lifts the pizza 4, the external driving mechanism stops, and the travel device 1 drives the push block or the push plate 22 to move backward. Then, the fork rod 21 is also driven by the push block or the push plate 22 to move backward. At this time, the fork rod 21 carries the pizza 4.

[0039] When the pizza 4 is carried to the corresponding oven 5, the external driving mechanism drives the travel device 1 to move downward or upward. When the fork rod 21 carries the pizza 4 to the door of the oven 5, the external driving mechanism stops, and the travel device 1 stops moving downward or upward; the travel device 1 drives the push block or push plate 22 to move forward, and the fork rod 21 slowly inserts into the gap of the support plate 51 of the oven 5, so that the pizza 4 is sent to the support plate 51, and then when the push block or push plate 22 conflicts with the support plate 51, when the travel device 1 continues to move forward, the push block or push plate 22 and the support plate 51 form a resistance or thrust, so that the pizza 4 on the fork rod 21 falls on the support plate 51, and then the travel device 1 moves backward, and the fork rod 21 withdraws from the oven 5, and the oven 5 bakes the pizza 4 at this time;

[0040] When the pizza 4 is baked, the external driving mechanism drives the travel device 1 to the door of the oven 5, and the travel device 1 drives the fork rod 21 to insert into the gap of the support plate 51 of the oven 5, and then the external driving mechanism drives the travel device 1 to move upward, so that the fork rod 21 lifts the pizza 4, and the travel device 1 moves backward, so that the fork rod 21 withdraws from the outside of the oven 5, and the travel device 1 stops running. Then, the cooperation between the external driving mechanism and the travel device 1 allows the pizza 4 to be delivered into the pizza box;

[0041] It is worth noting that the external driving mechanism is a lifting platform or a lifting device, which is used to drive the travel device 1 to move upward or downward, and the oven 5 and the support plate 51 can refer to Figure 4 As shown, the support plate 51 is composed of multiple pieces, and each support plate 51 is arranged at equal or unequal intervals, so that there will be gaps between the support plates 51 to facilitate the insertion or extraction of the fork rod 21;

[0042] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, in order to realize the fork rod 21, the pizza 4 can be stably forked and carried;

[0043] The travel device 1 comprises: a mounting plate 17, a motor 13, a belt 16, a travel block 15, a first drive shaft 18, and a second drive shaft 19; the motor 13 is arranged on the mounting plate 17, the first drive shaft 18 is connected to the drive shaft of the motor 13, the second drive shaft 19 is arranged on the other side of the mounting plate 17 corresponding to the first drive shaft 18, the belt 16 is arranged on the first drive shaft 18 and the second drive shaft 19, the travel block 15 is arranged on the belt 16, and the push block or push plate 22 is fixed on the travel block 15;

[0044] The travel block 15 can be fixed to the belt 16 by screws or by buckles. In this embodiment, the travel block 15 can be fixed to the belt 16 by screws.

[0045] Specifically, the motor 13 rotates forward or reversely, and the travel block 15 is driven forward or backward through the belt 16, and the push block or push plate 22 and the fork rod 21 move forward or backward at the same time.

[0046] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, in order to increase the hand stability of the travel block 15 when walking:

[0047] The travel device 1 includes two sliders 14 and two slide bars 11. The two slide bars 11 are respectively arranged on the mounting plate 17 corresponding to the two sides of the belt 16. The two sliders 14 are respectively arranged on the corresponding slide bars 11. The push block or push plate 22 is respectively fixedly connected to the travel block 15 and the two sliders 14.

[0048] Specifically, through the forward or reverse rotation of the motor 13, the belt 16 simultaneously drives the travel block 15, the push block or push plate 22, and the two sliders 14 to move forward or backward. In this embodiment, the slider 14 slides on the slide rod 11, thereby increasing the stability of the travel block.

[0049] Reference Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, in order to ensure the reliability of the fixed connection between the push block or push plate 22 and the travel block 15 and the two sliders 14:

[0050] The travel device 1 further comprises two washers 12 , and the two washers 12 are respectively arranged between the slider 14 and the push block or push plate 22 .

[0052] The pizza transport mechanism further includes two sensors 6, and the two sensors 6 are respectively arranged on the mounting plate 17 corresponding to one side of the slide bar 11;

[0053] Specifically, the sensor 6 is disposed near the first drive shaft 18 and the second drive shaft 19 . In addition, when the sensor 6 is actually used, the position can also be adjusted according to the route of the travel block 15 .

[0054] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, in order to be able to judge the quality of pizza 4;

[0055] The pizza transport mechanism also includes a camera 3, which is used to monitor or replay the operating status of the travel device 1 and the robot 2.

[0056] Among them, the operating status of the travel device 1 and the robot 2 can be known at any time through the camera 3, so as to ensure that the pizza conveying mechanism can operate stably.
