[0018] The present invention is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0019] See also Figure 1 The utility model provides a multi-bin upper machine, comprising: a machine platform 1, a feed conveyor belt 2 arranged at the bottom of one side of the machine platform 1, a feed lifting mechanism 41 arranged at the end of the feed conveyor belt 2, a discharge conveyor belt 3 arranged at the bottom of the other side of the machine platform 1, a discharge lifting mechanism 42 arranged at the end of the discharge conveyor belt 3, a material taking mechanism 5 suspended above the feed lifting mechanism 41, and a tray taking mechanism 6 suspended above the feed lifting mechanism 41 and the discharge lifting mechanism 42, wherein the tray taking mechanism 6 moves above the feed lifting mechanism 41 and the discharge lifting mechanism 42.

[0020] When working, a tray containing a certain number of products is placed on the feed conveyor belt 2 manually or by a manipulator, and the incoming material state is detected by a sensor arranged below the feed conveyor belt 2, or it is started manually, so that the tray is sent to the inside by starting the feed conveyor belt 2, so that the tray moves to the station of the feed lifting mechanism 41. The feed lifting mechanism 41 is started to lift the tray upward, so that the tray is moved to the material picking area of ​​the material picking mechanism 5. The sensor detects that the tray has reached the designated area, and the feed lifting mechanism 41 is stopped. The material picking mechanism 5 moves to the material picking position, and picks up the products on the tray in sequence according to the set material picking sequence and moves them to the next station. After the material picking mechanism 5 picks up and transports all the materials on the tray, the tray picking mechanism 6 moves to the corresponding position of the empty tray to pick up the tray, and places the tray on the discharge lifting mechanism 42, and the hole tray is lowered by the discharge lifting mechanism 42, so that the empty tray falls on the discharge conveyor belt 3, so that the empty tray is sent out.

[0021] In some embodiments, the stacked trays can be placed on the feed conveyor belt 2 for transportation. When the feed lifting mechanism 41 drives the stacked trays to move upward so that the uppermost tray enters the detection range of the sensor, the feed lifting mechanism 41 stops working and the material is taken by the material taking mechanism 5. After the picking and handling of the products on a group of trays is completed, the empty trays are taken away by the tray taking mechanism 6. At the same time, since the sensor does not detect the trays, the feed lifting mechanism 41 is started to lift the stacked trays upward. At the discharge lifting mechanism 42, the empty trays are stacked and placed. When the empty trays are placed on the discharge lifting mechanism 42 for stacking, the top sensor detects the empty trays, and the discharge lifting mechanism 42 is started to drive the stacked empty trays to drop to the height of an empty tray. When the empty trays are stacked to the set height, the bottom sensor detects the empty trays, which drives the discharge lifting mechanism 42 to place the stacked empty trays on the discharge conveyor belt 3, and the stacked empty trays are sent out through the discharge conveyor belt 3.

[0022] The tray loaded with products is moved to the feed lifting mechanism 41 through the feed conveyor belt 2, so that the tray is moved to the material taking position of the material taking mechanism 5, and the empty tray is moved to the discharge lifting mechanism 42 through the tray taking mechanism 6, and finally the empty tray is sent out through the discharge conveyor belt 3, thereby effectively improving production efficiency, and the feeding action can be continuously completed without stopping the machine, shortening the production cycle. At the same time, by exchanging the feeding direction and the discharging direction, the material collection work can also be compatible to meet different work needs.

[0023] In some embodiments, the feed lifting mechanism 41 and the discharge lifting mechanism 42 both include: a lifting drive motor disposed on the machine platform 1, a lifting transmission mechanism 411 connected to the output end of the lifting drive motor, a lifting bracket 412 disposed on the moving end of the lifting transmission mechanism 411, and lifting arms 413 disposed on both sides of the lifting bracket 412, wherein the lifting arms 413 are respectively disposed on both sides of the outer side of the feed conveyor belt 2 or the discharge conveyor belt 3, and the lifting drive motor drives the lifting bracket 412 to move up and down through the lifting transmission mechanism 411. The lifting arms 413 are respectively disposed on both sides of the outer side of the feed conveyor belt 2 or the discharge conveyor belt 3, so that when the lifting drive motor drives the lifting bracket 412 to move up and down through the lifting transmission mechanism 411, the possibility of collision between the lifting arms 413 and the feed conveyor belt 2 or the discharge conveyor belt 3 can be effectively avoided.

[0024] See also Figure 2The lifting transmission mechanism 411 includes: a lead screw connected to the output end of the lifting drive motor, and a lead screw slider sleeved on the lead screw, and the lifting bracket 412 is connected to the lead screw slider. The lifting drive motor drives the lead screw to rotate, so that the lead screw slider moves along the lead screw, thereby meeting the need to drive the lifting arm 413 to move up and down.

[0025] In some embodiments, the material picking mechanism 5 includes: a material picking X-axis moving module 51, a material picking Y-axis moving module 52 arranged on the moving end of the material picking X-axis moving module 51, a material picking Z-axis moving module 53 arranged on the moving end of the material picking Y-axis moving module 52, and a material picking assembly 54 arranged on the moving end of the material picking Z-axis moving module 53, and a plurality of material picking nozzles 55 are arranged on the material picking assembly 54. The material picking X-axis moving module 51, the material picking Y-axis moving module 52 and the material picking Z-axis moving module 53 respectively drive the material picking assembly 54 to move in multiple axes, so as to facilitate the picking and carrying of the product by the material picking nozzles 55 on the material picking assembly 54. In some embodiments, the material picking X-axis moving module 51 uses a motor as a driving unit, and the output end of the motor is connected to a pulley transmission mechanism, and the material picking Y-axis moving module 52 is connected to the transmission belt of the pulley transmission mechanism and moves with the movement of the transmission belt. The material picking Y-axis moving module 52 adopts a linear module, and the material picking Z-axis moving module 53 is arranged on the moving end of the linear module, and the material picking Z-axis moving module 53 is driven to move by the linear module. The material picking Z-axis moving module 53 adopts a cylinder or an electric push rod, and the output end of the cylinder or the electric push rod is connected to the material picking assembly 54.

[0026] In some embodiments, the material picking assembly 54 further includes a rotary drive motor 541 and a rotary bracket disposed on the output end of the rotary drive motor 541, and the material picking nozzle 55 is disposed on the rotary bracket. When the material picking mechanism 5 picks up a product and needs to rotate and adjust the direction of the product, the rotary drive motor 541 can be started to change the direction of the product so as to facilitate the processing of the product at the next station.

[0027] In some embodiments, see Figure 3The tray picking mechanism 6 includes: a tray picking X-axis moving module 61, a tray picking Y-axis moving module 62 arranged on the moving end of the tray picking X-axis moving module 61, a tray picking Z-axis moving module 63 arranged on the moving end of the tray picking Y-axis moving module 62, a tray picking bracket 64 arranged on the output end of the tray picking Z-axis moving module 63, and a plurality of tray picking nozzles 65 arranged on the tray picking bracket 64. The tray picking bracket 64 is driven to move in multiple axial directions by the tray picking X-axis moving module 61, the tray picking Y-axis moving module 62 and the tray picking Z-axis moving module 63, so that the empty material tray can be picked up and transported by the tray picking nozzles 65 on the tray picking bracket 64. In some embodiments, the tray picking X-axis moving module 61 adopts a motor as a driving unit, and the output end of the motor is connected to a pulley transmission mechanism, and the tray picking Y-axis moving module 62 is connected to the transmission belt of the pulley transmission mechanism and moves with the movement of the transmission belt. The disc picking Y-axis moving module 62 adopts a linear module, and the disc picking Z-axis moving module 63 is arranged on the moving end of the linear module, and the disc picking Z-axis moving module 63 is driven to move by the linear module. The disc picking Z-axis moving module 63 adopts a cylinder or an electric push rod, and the output end of the cylinder or the electric push rod is connected to the disc picking bracket 64. In some embodiments, since the disc picking mechanism 6 does not need to move in the Y-axis direction, a suspension is used to replace the disc picking Y-axis moving module 62 to fix the disc picking Z-axis moving module 63.

[0028] In some embodiments, the tray-taking bracket 64 is hinged with a plurality of universal brackets 641, and the tray-taking bracket 64 is provided with a plurality of bracket mounting holes corresponding to the universal brackets 641, one end of the universal bracket 641 is locked on the bracket mounting hole, and the universal bracket 641 includes a plurality of cantilevers 6411 connected front and back, and the two ends of the cantilever 6411 are respectively provided with connection holes, and the middle part of the cantilever 6411 is provided with a bar hole arranged along the direction of the cantilever 6411, and the connection hole of the cantilever 6411 at the rear end is connected and fixed with the connection hole or bar hole of the cantilever 6411 at the front end through a connecting piece, and the tray-taking suction nozzle 65 is locked and fixed on the connection hole or bar hole. By adopting the universal bracket 641 and adjusting the connection position of the connection hole and the bar hole, the setting position of the tray-taking suction nozzle 65 is changed, so as to meet the picking and handling requirements of trays of different specifications and sizes. In some embodiments, the connecting parts are bolts and nuts, which are locked together to lock the cantilever 6411, thereby preventing the position of the cantilever 6411 from shifting during operation and affecting the picking and handling effect of the material tray.

[0029] In some embodiments, a chuck cylinder 66 is provided at both ends of the tray-taking bracket 64, and a chuck claw 661 is provided at the output end of the chuck cylinder 66, and the chuck cylinder 66 drives the chuck claw 661 to move back and forth. By providing the chuck cylinder 66 and the chuck claw 661, while the tray-taking suction nozzle 65 adsorbs the tray, the chuck cylinder 66 is started to drive the chuck claw 661 to clamp and fix the two ends of the tray, so as to avoid the unstable negative pressure state of the tray-taking suction nozzle 65 or the inability of the tray-taking suction nozzle 65 to stably absorb the tray due to the heavy tray, thereby improving the stability of the clamping state of the tray and the safety during the transportation process. In some embodiments, the clamping part of the chuck claw 661 is a C-shaped structure, so as to clamp and support the side wall and bottom surface of the tray, thereby improving the safety during the transportation process.

[0030] In some embodiments, a guide mechanism 7 is provided on the side of the feed conveyor belt 2 and the discharge conveyor belt 3, respectively. The guide mechanism 7 includes: a guide bracket, and a guide plate provided on the guide bracket, the two sides of the guide plate are provided with inclined surfaces or curved surfaces, respectively, the upper and lower ends of the guide bracket are connected to the machine 1, respectively, and the upper and lower ends of the guide bracket are provided with adjustment strip holes.

By changing the corresponding position of the adjustment strip hole fixed by the guide bracket, the distance between the guide bracket and the feed conveyor belt 2 or the discharge conveyor belt 3 can be adjusted to meet the correction and correction requirements of material trays of different specifications and sizes.

[0031] In summary, the utility model moves the tray loaded with products to the feed lifting mechanism through the feed conveyor belt, thereby moving the tray to the material taking position of the material taking mechanism, and moves the empty tray to the discharge lifting mechanism through the tray taking mechanism, and finally sends the empty tray out through the discharge conveyor belt, thereby effectively improving production efficiency, and can continuously complete the feeding action without stopping the machine, shortening the production cycle.
