Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of conveying equipment, in particular to an automatic feeding device and a binding production system. Background Art
[0002] In the process of conveying materials, it is often necessary to convey the materials arranged continuously on the conveying mechanism so that the materials can continue to be conveyed backward according to the set interval distance or interval time. In the related technology, the conveying mechanism adopts a double-layer conveyor line, which has a lower conveyor line and an upper conveyor line. The upper conveyor line is parallel to the lower conveyor line and extends side by side. A lifting mechanism is set at the end of the two conveyor lines. The pallet loaded with materials is placed on the upper conveyor line by a forklift or an AGV trolley. The upper conveyor line transports the pallet in the direction close to the lifting mechanism. The lifting mechanism receives the pallet and makes the pallet drop to a certain height and dock with the lower conveyor line, so that the staff can take the materials in the pallet away. After the materials are taken, the lifting mechanism transports the empty pallet to the lower conveyor line, and the lower conveyor line transports the empty pallet away from the lifting mechanism.
[0003] In actual use, this type of material transportation method requires an automatic guided vehicle to dock with the upper conveyor line to stably place the pallet loaded with materials on the upper conveyor line. When the empty pallet is transported back to the starting position by the lower conveyor line, the automatic guided vehicle needs to dock with the lower conveyor line to transport the empty pallet away. In order to improve production efficiency, there are multiple double-layer conveyor lines, and each double-layer conveyor line requires an automatic guided vehicle to store empty pallets. Empty pallets can only be recovered and transported manually on each lower conveyor line, resulting in a high frequency of pallet recovery, which is not conducive to reducing the labor intensity of staff and also drags down the benefits of automated production.

The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and cannot be understood as limiting the present invention.

[0053] In the description of the utility model, if there is a description of first and second, it is only for the purpose of distinguishing the technical features, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying the relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features or implicitly indicating the order of the indicated technical features.
[0054] In the description of the present invention, unless otherwise clearly defined, terms such as setting, installing, connecting, etc. should be understood in a broad sense, and technicians in the relevant technical field can reasonably determine the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention based on the specific content of the technical solution.
[0055] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 According to some embodiments of the present invention, the automatic loading device includes a transport module 100 , a stacking module 200 and a recycling module 300 .
[0056] The transport module 100 has a loading position, a discharging position and a return position. The loading position is used for loading materials, and the transport module 100 is used to transport the pallet from the loading position to the discharging position and the return position; the transport module 100 includes multiple ones.
[0057] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the material loading position, material taking position, and reflux position do not overlap. In other embodiments, the positions of the material loading position, material taking position, and reflux position may overlap with each other, which is not limited here.
[0058] In actual use, an automatic guided vehicle or forklift is used to stably place the pallet carrying the loaded materials at the loading position, and the transport module 100 transports the materials at the loading position to the unloading position. Then, the staff or a robotic arm unloads the materials at the unloading position. After unloading, the transport module 100 transports the empty pallet to the return position.
[0059] The stacking module 200 is located beside the transport module 100 and is used for stacking pallets;
[0060] The recycling modules 300 include multiple ones, and correspond one to one with the transport modules 100; the recycling modules 300 are arranged corresponding to the reflow positions, and the conveying surface of the recycling modules 300 can be raised and lowered relative to the conveying surface of the transport module 100 at the reflow position, so that the pallets at the reflow position can be transferred to the recycling modules 300; adjacent recycling modules 300 are connected to each other, and the recycling modules 300 adjacent to the stacking modules 200 are connected to the stacking modules 200, so that the pallets can be transferred between adjacent recycling modules 300 and transported to the stacking modules 200.
[0061] It can be understood that the recovery module 300 corresponds to the transport module 100 one by one, that is, each return position of the transport module 100 corresponds to a recovery module 300. When the pallet is transported to the return position, the conveying surface of the recovery module 300 and the conveying surface at the return position of the transport module 100 can be relatively raised and lowered to transfer the pallet from the return position to the recovery module 300, for example, the conveying surface at the return position of the transport module 100 is lowered to be lower than the conveying surface of the recovery module 300. Since adjacent recovery modules 300 are connected to each other, and the recovery module 300 adjacent to the stacking module 200 is connected to the stacking module 200, the pallets between adjacent modules can flow to each other, so that the pallets on the recovery module can flow to the stacking module 200. The stacking module 200 can stack the transported pallets.
[0062] It should be noted that, in the initial state, that is, before the pallet is conveyed to the reflow position, the height of the conveying surface of the recovery module 300 is lower than the conveying surface at the reflow of the transport module 100 to ensure that the pallet can enter the reflow position.
[0063] In summary, by setting a recovery module 300 at the reflow position of the transport module 100, and docking adjacent recovery modules 300, and docking one of the recovery modules 300 with the stacking module 200, the empty pallets on multiple transport modules 100 can be uniformly recovered to the stacking module 200 through the recovery module 300, and the empty pallets can be stacked through the stacking module 200, so that the pallets at the stacking module 200 can be subsequently taken away by a forklift or an automatic guided vehicle, thereby, the empty pallets of multiple transport modules 100 can be taken away at one time, reducing the recycling frequency of empty pallets and improving production efficiency.
[0064] It should be understood that the specific number of recycling modules 300 and transportation modules 100 can be flexibly configured according to actual production conditions. In some embodiments, the stacking method of the pallets is to stack them in an aligned manner from bottom to top.
[0065] Combination Figures 6 to 9According to the automatic loading device of some embodiments of the utility model, the transport module 100 includes a first conveyor line 110, and the recovery module 300 includes a recovery conveyor line 310, wherein one of the transport module 100 or the recovery module 300 includes a second lifting device 150, and the second lifting device 150 is driven to connect the first conveyor line 110 or the recovery conveyor line 310; and one of the first conveyor line 110 or the recovery conveyor line 310 is formed with an avoidance space, and the other can pass through the avoidance space so that the conveying surface of the first conveyor line 110 is lifted or lowered relative to the conveying surface of the recovery conveyor line 310.
[0066] In this embodiment, combined with Fig. 9 The transport module 100 includes a second lifting device 150, which drives the first conveyor line 110 to move vertically upward or vertically downward, and the recovery conveyor line 310 is formed with an avoidance space, and the height of the recovery conveyor line 310 is fixed. Specifically, the second lifting device 150 drives the height of the first conveyor line 110 to rise and fall, and the height of the conveying surface of the first conveyor line 110 is higher than the conveying surface of the recovery conveyor line 310, so that the pallet can move on the first conveyor line 110. When the second lifting device 150 drives the first conveyor line 110 to descend, and the height of the conveying surface of the first conveyor line 110 drops to be lower than the conveying surface of the recovery conveyor line 310, the bottom of the pallet contacts the conveying surface of the recovery conveyor line 310 and leaves the conveying surface of the first conveyor line 110, and then can move on the recovery conveyor line 310.
[0067] When used in actual production, the upper limit and lower limit of the lifting height of the second lifting device 150 can be flexibly configured according to production needs. When in use, it is only necessary to control the second lifting device 150 to rise and fall, so as to control the transfer of the pallet between the first conveyor line 110 and the recovery conveyor line 310. The rise and fall of the second lifting device 150 can be controlled by using sensors in conjunction with auxiliary control equipment, which is convenient for control and increases the automation level of the production line.
[0068] For example, in other embodiments, the recovery module 300 may also include a second lifting device 150, which drives the recovery conveyor line 310 to rise and fall, and the conveying surface of the recovery lifting conveyor line 130 in the recovery conveyor line 310 is lifted and lowered relative to the conveying surface of the first conveyor line 110.
[0069] For another example, in other embodiments, an escape space may be formed for the first conveyor line 110 , and the recovery conveyor line 310 passes through the escape space to rise or fall relative to the first conveyor line 110 .
[0070] According to the automatic loading device of some embodiments of the present invention, the conveying direction of the first conveying line 110 is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the recovery conveying line 310 .
[0071] For example, a plurality of transport modules 100 are distributed in a transverse direction, the recovery conveying line 310 conveys in a transverse direction, and the first conveying line 110 of each transport module 100 conveys in a longitudinal direction, thereby increasing space utilization.
[0072] The first conveyor line 110 can transport in the longitudinal direction, and the recovery conveyor line 310 can transport in the transverse direction, so as to facilitate the docking of the automatic guided vehicle or forklift with the transport module 100 .
[0073] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the automatic feeding device is combined with Fig. 9 The first conveyor line 110 includes a bracket 112 and a plurality of parallel guide rollers 111 of equal height, the guide rollers 111 are rotatably connected to the bracket 112; and two adjacent guide rollers 111 are connected by a connecting belt 113 so that the guide rollers 111 can rotate synchronously. Figure 8 The recovery conveyor line 310 includes two aligned conveyor belt assemblies 311, and an escape space is formed between the two conveyor belt assemblies 311; the transport module 100 includes a second lifting device 150, and the second lifting device 150 drives the bracket 112 to rise and fall and pass through the escape space.
[0074] It can be understood that the second lifting device 150 drives the bracket 112 to descend, and the bracket 112 drives the guide roller 111 to descend and pass between the two conveyor belt assemblies 311, so that the pallet on the guide roller 111 is loaded onto the two conveyor belt assemblies.
[0075] It can be understood that the recovery conveyor line 310 includes two conveyor belt assemblies 311 with a driving motor. The first conveyor line 110 includes a guide roller 111 with a light weight. The two adjacent guide rollers 111 are connected by chain drive or belt drive, so that multiple guide rollers 111 can rotate synchronously. Lifting the first conveyor line 110 by the second lifting device 150 can reduce the burden of the second lifting device 150, and the electrical control program is simple.
[0076] It is understandable that the second lifting device 150 may be in the form of, but not limited to, an electric telescopic rod, a hydraulic telescopic rod, and a cylinder telescopic rod. In this embodiment, the second lifting device 150 includes a lifting cylinder, which is installed at the bottom end of the bracket 112. The lifting cylinder pushes the bracket 112 up and down, thereby pushing the multiple guide rollers 111 up and down at the same time.
[0077] refer to Figures 3 to 5Regarding the specific form of the transport module 100, in the present embodiment, the transport module 100 further includes a second conveyor line 120, a lifting conveyor line 130 and a first lifting device 140; the second conveyor line 120 and the first conveyor line 110 are distributed along the height direction; the first lifting device 140 drives and connects the lifting conveyor line 130 so that the lifting conveyor line 130 is docked with the second conveyor line 120 and the first conveyor line 110; the reflow position is located on the second conveyor line 120 or the first conveyor line 110.
[0078] It can be understood that one of the second conveyor line 120 and the first conveyor line 110 has a loading position for loading, and the other has a return position for transferring the empty pallet to the recovery conveyor line 310, and the lifting conveyor line 130 can be driven by the first lifting device 140 to choose to dock with the first conveyor line 110 or the second conveyor line 120, so that the pallets on the first conveyor line 110 and the second conveyor line 120 can be transferred to each other. By adding the second conveyor line 120 distributed along the height direction with the first conveyor line 110 and cooperating with the lifting conveyor line 130, the height space is reasonably utilized and the occupied space of the conveying module is reduced.
[0079] Specifically, refer to Figure 3 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 The second conveyor line 120 includes a first synchronous belt 121, a first mounting plate 122 and a first motor 123. The first synchronous belt 121 is wrapped around the outside of the first mounting plate 122, and the first motor 123 drives the first synchronous belt 121 to move.
[0080] Specifically, refer to Figure 4 The lifting conveyor line 130 includes a second synchronous belt 131, a second mounting plate 132 and a second motor 133. The second synchronous belt 131 surrounds the outside of the second mounting plate 132, and the second motor 133 drives the second synchronous belt 131 to move. The second synchronous belt 131 corresponds to the first synchronous belt 121 one by one.
[0081] One usage is: the material picking position is located at the lifting conveyor line 130, and the pallet loaded with materials is transported from the first synchronous belt 121 to the direction close to the second synchronous belt 131. During the transportation of the pallet loaded with materials on the first synchronous belt 121, the first lifting device 140 drives the second synchronous belt 131 to rise to be flush with the first synchronous belt 121, and the pallet is transported from the first synchronous belt 121 to the second synchronous belt 131. The first lifting device 140 drives the second synchronous belt 131 to descend to a certain height, so that manual or mechanical arms can pick up materials from the second synchronous belt 131 to an appropriate position. After the material picking is completed, the first lifting device 140 drives the second synchronous belt 131 to descend to be flush with the guide roller 111, and the transportation direction of the second synchronous belt 131 is reversed, and the empty pallet is transported from the first synchronous belt 121 to the guide roller 111.
[0082] Another way of using is: the material picking position is located at the second conveyor line 120, the top of the first lifting device 140 lifts and carries the lifting conveyor line 130, the first lifting device 140 rises, and when the lifting conveyor line 130 moves to the same height as the second conveyor line 120, the pallet loaded with materials is transported from the second synchronous belt 131 to the first synchronous belt 121, and after the material is taken, the height of the second synchronous belt 131 remains unchanged, the transport directions of the second synchronous belt 131 and the first synchronous belt 121 are reversed, the pallet returns from the first synchronous belt 121 to the second synchronous belt 131, the first lifting device 140 drives the second mounting plate 132 and the second synchronous belt 131 to descend, and are flush with the guide roller 111 of the first conveyor line 110, and the transport direction of the second synchronous belt 131 is reversed again, and the empty pallet is transported from the second synchronous belt 131 to the guide roller 111.
[0083] In summary, by providing the first conveyor line 110, the second conveyor line 120 and the lifting conveyor line 130, there are multiple pallet transportation modes, which is conducive to flexibly responding to various situations that may arise in production activities. For example, the second conveyor line 120 can temporarily store some pallets to ensure the continuity of pallet loading.
[0084] The pallet loaded with materials is transported from the first synchronous belt 121 to the direction close to the second synchronous belt 131, and then the first lifting device 140 drives the second synchronous belt 131 to descend and reverses the transport direction to transport the empty pallet from the second synchronous belt 131 to the guide roller 111. If the material and the pallet are transported in this way, the pallet can be transported to the recycling module 300 faster.
[0085] With respect to the specific form of the transport module 100, in other embodiments, the transport module 100 only includes a first conveyor line 110. The first conveyor line 110 is arranged to be relatively long and has a loading position, a material taking position and a reflux position. The first conveyor line 110 may include a plurality of conveying sections connected to each other, and the conveying section corresponding to the reflux position may be connected to the second lifting device 150 to enable it to be lifted and lowered relative to other conveying sections, thereby facilitating the transfer of the pallet to the recovery conveyor line 310.
[0086] According to the automatic loading device of some embodiments of the utility model, the first conveyor line 110 is located below the second conveyor line 120, the loading position is located on the second conveyor line 120, and the loading position is formed on the side of the second conveyor line 120 away from the lifting conveyor line 130; the reflux position is located on the first conveyor line 110.
[0087] It is understandable that, under normal circumstances, the materials stacked on the pallet are relatively high, so the pallet loaded with materials is stably placed on the second conveyor line 120 located above for transportation, and the empty pallet is returned through the first conveyor line 110, which can save height space and avoid placing the pallet loaded with materials on the first conveyor line 110, resulting in the spacing between the first conveyor line 110 and the second conveyor line 120 being large enough, thereby increasing the manufacturing cost, and the number of materials loaded on the pallet can be large, which is not affected by the spacing between the first conveyor line 110 and the second conveyor line 120. In addition, when the material picking position is located at the lifting conveyor line 130 or the second conveyor line 120, it can make it more convenient for the staff or the robot arm to pick up the materials.
[0088] refer to Figure 5 According to the automatic feeding device of some embodiments of the utility model, the first lifting device 140 includes a first sliding seat 145, a second sliding seat 146, a first connecting rod 141, a second connecting rod 142, a first mounting seat 143, a second mounting seat 144 and a lifting drive member 147; the first connecting rod 141 and the second connecting rod 142 are cross-arranged, and the first connecting rod 141 and the middle part of the second connecting rod 142 are rotatably connected; the bottom end of the first connecting rod 141 is rotatably connected to the first sliding seat 145, and can be horizontally moved relative to the first sliding seat 145. Sliding horizontally, the top end of the first connecting rod 141 is rotatably connected to the first mounting seat 143; the bottom end of the second connecting rod 142 is rotatably connected to the second mounting seat 144, the top end of the second connecting rod 142 is rotatably connected to the second sliding seat 146, and can slide horizontally relative to the second sliding seat 146; and the first mounting seat 143 and the second sliding seat 146 are connected to the lifting conveyor line 130; the lifting drive member 147 drives the connection between the first connecting rod 141 and / or the second connecting rod 142 to make the first connecting rod 141 and the second connecting rod 142 rotate relative to each other.
[0089] It is understandable that when the lifting conveyor line 130 needs to be raised, the lifting drive member 147 drives the first connecting rod 141 and / or the second connecting rod 142 to rotate the first connecting rod 141 and the second connecting rod 142 relative to each other, and at the same time, the bottom end of the first connecting rod 141 will rotate relative to the first sliding seat 145 and slide relative to the first sliding seat 145, the top end of the first connecting rod 141 rotates relative to the first mounting seat 143, the bottom end of the second connecting rod 142 rotates relative to the second mounting seat 144, and the top end of the second connecting rod 142 rotates relative to the second sliding seat 146 and slides relative to the second sliding seat 146, so that the bottom end of the first connecting rod 141 and the bottom end of the second connecting rod 142 are close to each other, and the top end of the second connecting rod 142 and the top end of the second connecting rod 142 are close to each other, so that the lifting conveyor line 130 installed on the first mounting seat 143 and the second sliding seat 146 is raised. When the lifting conveyor line 130 needs to be lowered, the opposite is true.
[0090] It is understandable that the bottom end of the first connecting rod 141 and the bottom end of the second connecting rod 142 always maintain the same height, and the top end of the first connecting rod 141 and the top end of the second connecting rod 142 always maintain the same height. The lifting drive member 147 can be used in a manner including but not limited to a hydraulic cylinder and a pneumatic cylinder. In this embodiment, the lifting drive member 147 used is a pneumatic cylinder.
[0091] The first connecting rod 141 and the second connecting rod 142 are cross-arranged, and the middle parts of the first connecting rod 141 and the second connecting rod 142 are rotatably connected, so that the lifting and lowering conveyor line 130 has good stability when rising and falling, a large load-bearing capacity, and simple installation and maintenance.
[0092] refer to Figure 2 , Figure 10 to Figure 11 According to the automatic loading device of some embodiments of the utility model, the stacking module 200 includes a stacking conveyor line 210, a third lifting device 220, a stacking rack 221 and a limiting structure 222; the feeding end of the stacking conveyor line 210 is docked with the adjacent recovery module 300, the stacking conveyor line 210 is formed with an avoidance position, the third lifting device 220 is located at the avoidance position, and the stacking rack 221 is formed with a storage space, and the storage space is located above the avoidance position; the third lifting device 220 is used to lift the pallet on the stacking conveyor line 210 to allow the pallet to enter the storage space; the limiting structure 222 is rotatably arranged on the stacking rack 221, and the limiting structure 222 is located at the feeding port of the storage space, so that the pallet pushes the limiting structure 222 to enter the storage space, and the limiting structure 222 is used to support the pallet in the storage space. Among them, the limiting structure 222 is rotatably arranged on the stacking rack 221 so as to be able to switch between a first position and a second position. When the pallet enters the storage space from the feeding port of the storage space, the limiting structure can be pushed by the pallet to switch from the first position to the second position so that the pallet can enter the storage space. When the limiting structure switches to the second position, the limiting structure supports the pallet in the storage space.
[0093] It is understandable that the stacking conveyor line 210 is docked with the adjacent recycling module 300 to be able to recycle empty pallets. When the stacking conveyor line 210 is loaded with pallets, the third lifting device 220 lifts the pallets on the stacking conveyor line 210 to drive the pallets to rise. During the process of the pallets rising, the limiting structure 222 can be pushed open to enter the storage space. When the pallets are placed in the storage space, the limiting structure 222 returns to its original position. At this time, the limiting structure 222 can support the pallets in the storage space.
[0094] Specifically, refer to Fig.10 The stacking conveyor line 210 includes a third synchronous belt 211, a third mounting plate 212 and a third motor 213. The third synchronous belt 211 is wound around the outside of the third mounting plate 212, and the third motor 213 drives the third synchronous belt 211 to move. Fig.10 The limiting structure 222 includes multiple, specific structures of the limiting structure 222: including a shroud 2221 and a baffle 2222. The shroud 2221 is fixed on the stacking rack 221. The shroud 2221 is a "U"-shaped structure. The inner side of the shroud 2221 is rotatably connected to the baffle 2222. The baffle 2222 is in a horizontal state when not under force, so as to be able to support the pallet. When the baffle 2222 is subjected to a force from bottom to top, the baffle 2222 flips up so that the pallet can enter the storage space. When the baffle 2222 is subjected to a force from top to bottom, it will remain in a horizontal state. Therefore, when the pallet rises upward and passes through the baffle 2222, the baffle 2222 flips up. After completely passing through the baffle 2222, the baffle 2222 returns to a horizontal state under the action of gravity, and the pallet can be stably placed on the baffle 2222.
[0095] The third synchronous belt 211 transports the pallet to the top of the third lifting device 220, and the third lifting device 220 rises, driving the pallet to rise steadily to the top of the enclosure 2221. When the pallet passes through the baffle 2222, the baffle 2222 turns up. When the height of the pallet completely exceeds the baffle 2222, the baffle 2222 is reset to maintain a horizontal state and be perpendicular to the enclosure 2221. The baffle 2222 supports the bottom end of the pallet, so that the pallet is stably stacked on the baffle 2222. The top of the stacking rack 221 is also threadedly connected to the limit frame 223, which is used to stabilize the stacked pallets and prevent the pallets from sliding or tilting.
[0096] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the automatic feeding device Figure 1 , and also includes multiple aisle pedals 400. An aisle pedal 400 is correspondingly arranged between two adjacent transport modules 100, and an aisle pedal 400 is correspondingly arranged between adjacent transport modules 100 and stacking modules 200. A docking space is formed at the bottom of the aisle pedal 400. Adjacent recovery conveyor lines 310 are connected to each other in the docking space, and the recovery conveyor line 310 can be docked with the stacking conveyor line 210 in the docking space.
[0097] When in use, the staff stands on the aisle pedal 400, or a robotic arm is set on the aisle pedal 400 to transport the materials to the appropriate position. No matter which method is used, it is conducive to increasing the convenience of picking up materials, especially picking up materials at higher positions, and will not affect the transportation and return of the pallets. The staff or the robotic arm will not affect the transportation and return operations of the pallets throughout the whole process. The docking between adjacent recovery conveyor lines 310 and the docking between the recovery conveyor line 310 and the stacking conveyor line 210 are completed in the docking space at the bottom of the aisle pedal 400, thereby reducing the occupied space and improving the efficiency of automated production.

[0099] According to the binding production system of the second aspect of the present invention, an automatic loading device is used in binding production to achieve automated transportation and stacking of materials, reduce the labor intensity of staff, and improve the efficiency of automated production.
[0100] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, those skilled in the art will appreciate that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the claims and their equivalents.
