[0031] like Figure 1-Figure 8 As shown, the utility model provides a gantry palletizing device.

[0032] In an exemplary embodiment, the gantry palletizing device comprises:

[0033] A gantry 1, a transmission frame 5 is provided on the gantry 1, and a first driving mechanism is provided on the gantry 1, and the driving mechanism is used to drive the transmission frame 5 to move along the extension direction of the gantry 1;

[0034] A grabbing assembly is arranged on the transmission frame 5. The transmission frame 5 is provided with a second driving mechanism for driving the grabbing assembly to move along the first direction. The grabbing assembly can be used to grab the product and move vertically.

[0035] The feeding component includes an identification module 4, which is electrically connected to the first driving mechanism, the second driving mechanism and the grabbing component, and is used to control the grabbing component to suck the product to a designated position.

[0036] In this embodiment, a gantry 1 is set up, a transmission frame 5 is set on the gantry 1, and a fixed frame 14 is set on the transmission frame 5, and a corresponding driving mechanism is used to realize the movement of the grabbing component on the X, Y, and Z axes, and realize the all-round positioning of the products. The whole process does not require manual participation, which reduces the labor intensity of the staff. In addition, the identification module 4 is used in this application to identify the cargo information, and the cargo is stacked at a specified position through the grabbing component, which avoids product position errors caused by manual stacking and improves the stacking efficiency.

[0037] In this embodiment, the direction in which the length of the gantry 1 is extended is designated as the direction of the X-axis, and the first direction is the Y-axis direction, which is perpendicular to the direction of the X-axis. The horizontal movement of the product can be achieved through the first driving mechanism and the second driving mechanism, and the vertical movement of the product can be driven by the grabbing assembly, thereby achieving free movement of the product in the directions of the X, Y, and Z axes to place the product in a designated location.

[0038] In an exemplary embodiment, the gripping assembly includes a fixed frame 14 and a third driving mechanism. The fixed frame 14 is arranged on the transmission frame 5. The third driving mechanism is arranged on the fixed frame 14. The fixed frame 14 is provided with a clamping mechanism. The third driving mechanism can be used to drive the clamping mechanism to move vertically.

[0039] In this embodiment, by providing the fixing frame 14 and the third driving mechanism, the third driving mechanism can realize the function of driving the clamping mechanism to perform vertical movement.

[0040] Exemplarily, in this embodiment, a third motor 12 is provided on the fixed frame 14, and the third driving mechanism includes a third rack 15 and a third gear 13. The third rack 15 is vertically arranged on the fixed frame 14, and the third gear 13 is arranged at the output end of the third motor 12, and the third gear 13 and the third rack 15 are meshed with each other. In this embodiment, the third motor 12 is installed on the transmission frame 5. When the third motor 12 is started, the third motor 12 drives the third gear 13 to move synchronously, and the third rack 15 installed on the fixed frame 14 moves in the vertical direction under the transmission of the third gear 13, including upward movement and downward movement. In this embodiment, in order to improve the stability of the transmission, two third gears 13 can be provided, wherein the other third gear 13 is rotatably provided on the transmission frame 5.

[0041] It is worth noting that, in the present embodiment, the third driving mechanism may also adopt other transmission modes, such as a screw slider mechanism or a cylinder or a hydraulic cylinder to move the fixing frame 14 in the vertical direction.

[0042] Exemplarily, in this embodiment, a fixed disk 19 is provided on the fixed frame 14, and the clamping mechanism includes a clamping motor 20 and a clamping block 21. The clamping motor 20 is symmetrically arranged on the fixed disk 19, and the clamping block 21 is arranged at the output end of the clamping motor 20. The clamping blocks 21 can move closer to each other to clamp the product or move away from each other to release the product. In this embodiment, the clamping motor 20 is arranged on the bottom surface of the fixed disk 19 to facilitate driving the clamping blocks 21 to move closer to each other or away from each other. A guide rod 22 is also provided on the fixed disk 19. The two clamping blocks 21 are slidably connected to the guide rod 22 to guide the clamping blocks 21, wherein the number of the guide rods 22 is two, which are symmetrically arranged on the fixed disk 19, and the extension direction of the guide rod 22 is the same as the moving direction of the clamping block 21.

[0043] For example, in this embodiment, a contact plate 25 is provided on the side of the fixing plate 19 away from the fixing frame 14. The contact plate 25 is elastically connected to the fixing frame 14, and the elastic connection is realized by an elastic mechanism. The contact plate 25 is located between the clamping blocks 21 and is used to contact the goods. In this embodiment, the contact plate 25 is provided so that the contact plate 25 first contacts the product. When the clamping mechanism moves downward as a whole, the contact plate 25 contacts the product. Since the contact plate 25 is elastically connected to the fixing frame 14, the contact plate 25 forms a buffer force after contacting the product to avoid damage to the product.

[0044] Exemplarily, the elastic mechanism in this embodiment is in the form of a sliding pin 23 with a spring 24 wrapped around it. The sliding pin 23 is slidably connected to the fixed disk 19. The lower end of the sliding pin 23 is fixedly connected to the contact plate 25. The spring 24 is arranged between the fixed disk 19 and the contact plate 25. When the contact plate 25 contacts the product, the product pushes the sliding pin 23 upward, and at the same time the spring 24 is compressed to achieve a buffering function.

[0045] In another embodiment, a chain 17 transmission mechanism can also be set on the fixed frame 14, by slidingly setting a sliding block 16 on the fixed frame 14, and setting a chain 17 on one side of the sliding block 16, wherein the chain 17 can be driven by a sprocket and a driving motor, and a connecting block 18 connected to the sliding block 16 is set on the chain 17, so that the chain 17 drives the sliding block 16 to move on the fixed frame 14. In this embodiment, the fixed plate 19 is installed at the bottom of the sliding block 16. Through the setting of the sliding block 16, the moving distance of the clamping mechanism in the vertical direction is increased, and products with different stacking heights can be stacked on each other, thereby expanding the scope of application of the utility model.

[0047] In this embodiment, by setting up the first motor 6, after the first motor 6 is started, it drives the first gear 7 to rotate, and the first gear 7 is engaged with the first rack 101. Therefore, it drives the transmission frame 5 on the gantry 1 along the extension direction of the first rack 101, that is, the length direction (X-axis) of the gantry 1.

[0048] Illustratively, in this embodiment, a limit block is provided on the gantry 1 to limit the position of the transmission frame 5 to prevent the transmission frame 5 from derailing and sliding out on the gantry 1 , thereby ensuring the safety performance of the transmission frame 5 .

[0049] It is worth noting that in this embodiment, the number of first gears 7 can be increased to improve the stability of the movement of the transmission frame 5. In this embodiment, the number of first gears 7 is two, one of which is arranged at the output end of the first motor 6, and the other is rotatably arranged on the transmission frame 5 and is also engaged with the first rack 101.

[0050] It should also be noted that in this embodiment, other driving methods may also be used, such as motor-screw drive, or driving elements such as cylinders and hydraulic cylinders, to ensure that the transmission frame 5 moves stably on the gantry 1.

[0051] It is worth mentioning that, in the present embodiment, a first slide rail is provided on the gantry 1 , and a slider slidably connected to the slide rail is provided on the transmission frame 5 , so as to limit the transmission frame 5 .

[0052] In an exemplary embodiment, a connecting frame 11 is provided on the transmission frame 5, and a second motor 9 is provided on the connecting frame 11. The second driving mechanism includes a second rack 8 and a second gear 10. The second rack 8 is arranged on the transmission frame 5, and the extension direction of the second rack 8 is perpendicular to the extension direction of the first rack 101. The second gear 10 is arranged at the output end of the second motor 9, and the second gear 10 and the second rack 8 are meshed with each other.

[0053] In this embodiment, by setting up a second motor 9 and a second rack 8, when the second motor 9 is started, it will drive the second gear 10 to rotate, and the second gear 10 will engage with the second rack 8 to drive the entire fixed frame 14 to move, thereby driving the fixed frame 14 to move along the Y axis.

[0054] Exemplarily, the number of the second gears 10 can be set to multiple, such as two in the present embodiment, one of which is fixed to the output end of the second motor 9, and the other is rotatably mounted on the connecting frame 11 to provide a stable driving force.

[0055] It is worth noting that in this embodiment, other driving modes may also be used, such as motor-screw drive, or driving elements such as cylinders and hydraulic cylinders, to ensure that the connecting frame 11 moves stably on the transmission frame 5.

[0056] It should also be noted that in the present embodiment, a second slide rail is provided on the transmission frame 5 , and a plurality of second sliding blocks slidably connected to the second slide rail are provided on the connecting frame 11 to limit the connecting frame 11 .

[0057] In an exemplary embodiment, the feeding assembly further includes a conveying mechanism 3, which is used to transfer products. The identification module 4 is disposed on the conveying mechanism 3 and is used to identify cargo information.

[0058] In this embodiment, by providing a feeding assembly, the product can be conveyed to a designated location for information identification and to be easily grasped by a grasping assembly.

[0059] It is worth noting that the identification module 4 in this embodiment adopts a reading module plus a processing module. The reading module reads the information of the label on the goods, transmits the information to the processing module for data processing, and sends the processing results to the corresponding sensors on the first drive mechanism, the second drive mechanism and the third drive mechanism to adjust the clamping mechanism to the specified position to grab the goods and place the goods, thereby realizing the stacking of goods.

[0060] In an exemplary embodiment, the utility model further comprises a plurality of pallets 2 , the pallets 2 are used to place products, the pallets 2 are arranged in the projection direction of the transmission frame 5 , and the plurality of pallets 2 are evenly arranged along the moving direction of the transmission frame 5 .

[0061] The stacking tray 2 in this embodiment is used for stacking goods. Since the transmission frame 5, the connecting frame 11 and the fixing frame 14 all move in a linear manner, the stacking tray 2 is arranged directly below the moving direction of the transmission frame 5, which can facilitate grabbing components for stacking.

[0062] In an exemplary embodiment, a plurality of fixing columns 102 are provided at the bottom of the gantry 1.
