DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0021] The following are specific embodiments of the present utility model in combination with the drawings, and the technical solutions of the present utility model will be further described, but the present utility model is not limited to these embodiments.

[0022] It should be noted that all directional indications (such as up, down, left, right, front, back...) in the embodiments of the present utility model are only used to explain the relative positional relationship, movement conditions, etc. between components in a certain specific posture (as shown in the attached drawings). If this specific posture changes, the directional indications will also change accordingly.

[0023] As Figures 1 to 5 shown, an automated loading and unloading production line includes a loading rack 100, a pushing assembly 200, a conveying rack 300, and an unloading assembly 400.

[0024] As Figures 1 to 5 shown, an automated loading and unloading production line includes a loading device. The loading device includes a loading rack 100 and a pushing assembly 200. The loading rack 100 includes a receiving groove for placing a plurality of products 500. The pushing assembly 200 includes a pushing block 210 that can move into the receiving groove. The pushing block 210 has a first initial position and a first moving position. When the pushing block 210 is in the first initial position, the pushing block 210 is flush with a single product 500 in the receiving groove. When the pushing block 210 is in the first moving position, it can drive a single product 500 to move horizontally out of the receiving groove. This method can not only achieve the precise conveying of a single product 500, but also achieve the cyclic conveying of the product 500, solve the accuracy problem existing in the prior art, improve the degree of automation, and have better flexibility and adaptability.

[0025] Specifically, as Figures 1 to 5 shown, in this embodiment, the loading device includes a pushing assembly 200 and a loading rack 100 arranged in sequence from left to right. The loading rack 100 includes a receiving groove arranged along its own length direction for placing a plurality of products 500 to achieve the cyclic conveying of a plurality of products 500. The pushing assembly 200 includes a pushing block 210 that can move into the bottom of the receiving groove. The pushing block 210 has a first initial position and a first moving position. When the pushing block 210 is in the first initial position, the pushing block 210 is flush with a single product 500 at the bottom in the receiving groove. When the pushing block 210 is in the first moving position, it can drive a single product 500 to move horizontally out of the receiving groove. Compared with the traditional conveyor belt conveying method, through the precise position control of the pushing block 210 in this device, it can ensure that only a single product 500 is moved each time, rather than indirectly controlling the position of the product 500 depending on the speed of the conveyor belt. And the first initial position and the flush characteristic of the pushing block 210 ensure the precise control of the position of the product 500 before moving, thus avoiding the position deviation of the product 500 during the moving process, and effectively improving the accuracy of the conveying of a single product 500.

[0026] In this embodiment, the loading rack 100 includes a storage part 110 and a first mounting seat 120 that are connected to each other from top to bottom. The accommodating groove includes a first storage groove 111 provided in the storage part 110 and a first limiting groove 121 provided on the first mounting seat 120 and communicating with the first storage groove 111. The height of the first limiting groove 121 is the same as the height of a single product 500, and the pushing block 210 is flush with the first limiting groove 121, so as to separate the storage area and the pushing area of the product 500, so that the pushing block can quickly and accurately position a single product 500; when the pushing block 210 is in the first moving position, it can drive the product 500 in the first limiting groove 121 to move out of the first limiting groove 121 and support the product 500 in the first storage groove 111, so as to avoid affecting the stationary state of other products 500 when transporting a single product 500. When the pushing block 210 returns from the first moving position to the first initial position, the single product 500 in the first storage groove 111 can fall into the first limiting groove 121, realizing the continuous cyclic transportation of a single product 500 and improving the automation degree of the production line.

[0027] In this embodiment, the first storage groove 111 extends along the length direction of the storage part 110, and its size and shape are adapted to the size and shape of the product 500, so as to realize the longitudinal arrangement of a plurality of products 500, so that a plurality of products 500 can fall into the first limiting groove 121 one by one.

[0028] In this embodiment, the accommodating groove further includes a movable groove 122 that is located below the first limiting groove 121 and communicates with the first limiting groove 121, and the width of the movable groove 122 is smaller than the width of the first limiting groove 121 and is adapted to the width of the pushing block 210, ensuring the smoothness of the pushing block 210 during the moving process, and at the same time ensuring the effective support for the product 500 and reducing the phenomenon of unsmooth movement caused by structural problems.

[0029] In this embodiment, the loading device further includes a first support seat 130. The first mounting seat 120 is detachably provided on the first support seat 130. The first support seat 130 is provided with a rectangular second limiting groove 131 that communicates with the movable groove 122 and the first limiting groove 121 and is adapted to the pushing block 210. The second limiting groove 131 supports the pushing block 210 in the first initial position and the first moving position, and can limit the movement of the pushing block 210 in the Y-axis and Z-axis directions, further ensuring the smoothness and accuracy of the movement of the pushing block 210 and reducing the position deviation of the product 500 caused by unstable movement.

[0030] Preferably, in this embodiment, the first support seat 130 and the first mounting seat 120 are detachably connected through a quick-release joint, enabling the user to conveniently and quickly replace the loading rack 100.

[0031] In this embodiment, a first sensor 140 is detachably provided on the first support base 130, and the first sensor 140 is used to detect the quantity of products 500 in the first storage tank 111, realizing real-time monitoring of the quantity of products 500 and providing data support for the automatic control of the production line. That is, when the remaining quantity in the first storage tank 111 reaches the specified quantity, the alarm device can be used to remind the user to replace the loading rack 100.

[0032] It should be noted that the first sensor 140 is detachably connected to the first support base 130 through a first connecting plate, and the first connecting plate seals the opening at the top of the second limiting groove 131 to limit the movement of the pushing block 210 in the Z-axis direction.

[0033] Preferably, in this embodiment, the first sensor 140 is an infrared sensor, and its laser irradiation point is above the first limiting groove 121. When the first sensor 140 detects that there is no product 500 above the first limiting groove 121, it feeds back a signal to the control system (not shown in the figure) to remind the user to replace the loading rack 100.

[0034] In this embodiment, the pushing assembly 200 includes a first driving assembly 220 connected to the pushing block 210. The first driving assembly 220 is a slider module that extends along the moving direction of the pushing block 210 and is used to drive the pushing block 210 to reciprocate between the first initial position and the first moving position, realizing automatic control of the pushing block 210, simplifying the overall structure, and improving the automation degree of the device.

[0035] In this embodiment, the pushing assembly 200 further includes a third support base 230, and the first driving assembly 220 is detachably provided on the third support base 230.

[0036] To facilitate processing operations such as gluing the products 500, in this embodiment, a conveying rack 300 is further included. The conveying rack 300 includes a conveying track 310 that abuts against the loading rack 100, and a clamping groove 320 that is flush with and communicates with the first limiting groove 121 is provided along the length direction of the conveying track 310. When the pushing block 210 is in the first moving position, it can drive the product 500 in the first limiting groove 121 to move into the clamping groove 320. The products 500 are stably and orderly arranged in a line on the conveying rack 300 for the processing device to perform processing operations such as gluing on the products 500 one by one. And by providing the clamping groove 320 that is flush with and communicates with the first limiting groove 121, the precise positioning of the product 500 when it is transferred to the conveying rack 300 is ensured, further facilitating subsequent processing operations.

[0037] In this embodiment, the clamping groove 320 includes a connecting portion 321 disposed near the first limiting groove 121 and a clamping portion 322 extending away from the first limiting groove 121. The connecting portion 321 and the clamping portion 322 communicate with each other and have a height difference, and the height of the clamping portion 322 is adapted to the height of the product 500. This ensures that the product 500 can smoothly move from the first limiting groove 121 to the clamping portion 322 in the clamping groove 320, improving the transfer efficiency of the product 500.

[0038] To support the conveying track 310, in this embodiment, the conveying rack 300 further includes a second support base 330 detachably disposed below the conveying track 310. There are two groups of the second support bases 330, which are respectively located at both ends of the conveying track 310 to ensure the stability of the layout of the conveying track 310.

[0039] To achieve automatic blanking of the product 500, in this embodiment, it further includes a blanking assembly 400. The blanking assembly 400 includes a blanking rack 410 movably disposed at one end of the conveying track 310 away from the loading rack 100. The blanking rack 410 is perpendicular to the conveying track 310, and a plurality of second storage grooves 411 are provided along its length direction for batch storage of a plurality of products 500. The blanking rack 410 has a second initial position and a second moving position. When the blanking rack 410 is in the second initial position or the second moving position, at least one second storage groove 411 is flush with the clamping groove 320 to receive the product 500 transferred by the clamping groove 320, realizing automatic blanking of the product 500 and effectively improving the automation degree of the production line.

[0040] It should be noted that in this embodiment, there are multiple second moving positions, which are adapted to the number of the second storage grooves 411. When the blanking rack 410 moves from the second initial position to any one of the second moving positions, at least one second storage groove 411 is flush with the clamping groove 320.

[0041] In this embodiment, the blanking assembly 400 includes a second driving assembly 420 connected to the blanking rack 410 and a second sensor 430 detachably disposed on the conveying track 310 for detecting the storage state of the second storage groove 411, and a detection signal is formed and fed back to the second driving assembly 420. The second sensor 430 and the second driving assembly 420 form a communication connection. When the second driving assembly 420 receives the detection signal, it drives the blanking rack 410 to move along the direction perpendicular to the conveying track 310 to realize the movement between the second initial position and the second moving position or between multiple second moving positions. By setting the second driving assembly 420 and the second sensor 430 to control the movement of the blanking rack 410, automatic control of the blanking process is realized, improving the overall automation level of the production line.

[0042] In this embodiment, the blanking assembly 400 further includes a fourth support base 440, and the second driving assembly 420 is a slider module, which is detachably arranged on the fourth support base 440.
