Specific embodiments
[0024] The following further details the specific embodiments of the present utility model with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0025] Provided by Figures 1 to 5 There is an auxiliary device for loading and unloading of a product filling device, including a frame body 1, a tray picking and placing structure and a tray lifting structure. The frame body 1 is arranged in the product filling device to support the tray picking and placing structure and the tray lifting structure. Under the action of the tray picking and placing structure, the tray with cigarette cartridges can be taken out or put into the frame body 1.
[0026] The tray picking and placing structure is arranged on the frame body 1 for moving the tray out of or into the product filling device. The tray lifting structure is arranged on one side of the tray picking and placing structure for lifting the tray to the processing position of the product filling device or lowering it to the tray picking and placing structure. The tray lifting structure is used in cooperation with the tray picking and placing structure. The tray lifting structure can lift the tray in the tray picking and placing structure, so that the tray moves upward to the processing position of the product filling device.
[0027] The tray picking and placing structure includes a frame 2 that is slidably connected to the frame body 1 and has a notch on one side. The frame 2 allows the tray picking and placing structure to slide out of the frame body 1 as a whole, making it more convenient for the staff to pick and place the trays. A plurality of support pieces 3 for supporting the edges of the trays are provided on the edge of the frame 2. A clearance groove 4 for the tray lifting structure to pass through is formed between two adjacent support pieces 3. The clearance groove 4 is used for the tray lifting structure to pass through. On the one hand, it lifts the tray on the support piece 3 and raises it to a suitable height. On the other hand, it places the tray on the tray lifting structure on the support piece 3 and disengages the tray lifting structure from the tray.
[0028] Limit plates 8 are provided at the four corners of the frame 2. The limit plates 8 are used to limit and guide the four corners of the tray. The upper ends of the limit plates 8 are inclined shapes that expand outward. The inclined shapes that expand outward at the upper end of the tray are used to better dock the tray with the tray clamping structure.
[0029] The tray lifting structure is arranged on one side of the notch of the frame 2. The tray lifting structure includes a tray 5 and a lifting drive assembly. The lifting drive assembly drives the tray 5 to approach or move away from the frame 2 along the lifting direction. The tray 5 can be inserted into the clearance groove 4. The tray lifting structure can lift the tray to the processing position of the cartridge filling device. On the other hand, it can also place the tray on the support piece 3 and move away from the frame 2 to avoid interfering with the outward movement of the frame 2.
[0030] A guide rail 6 perpendicular to the lifting direction of the tray lifting structure is provided on the frame body 1. A sliding plate 7 slidably connected to the guide rail 6 is provided on the frame 2. Under the action of the sliding plate 7 and the slide rail, the frame 2 is guided, so that the frame 2 can move along the direction of the guide rail 6 when moving outward from the frame body 1. At the same time, a handle 21 is also provided on the frame 2 to assist the frame 2 to move out of the frame body 1.
[0031] Positioning blocks 9 for supporting the tray are provided on the side of the tray 5 inserted into the clearance groove 4. The positioning blocks 9 lift the tray to a certain extent in height, so that there is a certain gap between the lowermost tray and the tray 5, so that the tray clamping structure can support the bottom of the lowermost tray.
[0032] The lifting drive assembly includes a linear guide rail 10, a slider 11, a threaded rod 12 and a lifting motor 13. The linear guide rail 10 is arranged along the lifting direction of the tray lifting structure to guide the slider 11. The slider 11 is slidably connected to the linear guide rail 10. The threaded rod 12 passes through the slider 11 and is threadedly connected to the slider 11. The lifting motor 13 drives the threaded rod 12 to rotate through a synchronous pulley and a synchronous belt. Under the action of the lifting motor 13, the threaded rod 12 is driven to drive the slider 11 to rise, thereby driving the tray 5 to move upward.
[0033] It also includes a tray clamping structure which is used to clamp and position the tray. The tray clamping structure includes a plurality of tray clamping components. There are two tray clamping components which are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the tray. The symmetrically arranged tray clamping components can better uniformly limit and support the tray.
[0034] The tray clamping component includes a lifting plate 14, a clamping plate 15 and a slide table cylinder 16. The lifting plate 14 is used to insert under the bottom of the tray to support the tray. The clamping plate 15 is used to limit the tray. An arc-shaped notch 22 corresponding to the four corners of the tray is provided on the clamping plate 15. Under the action of the arc-shaped notch 22, the tray is further clamped and positioned. The slide table cylinder 16 is used to drive the lifting plate 14 and the limiting plate 8 to move away from or close to the tray. The lifting plate 14 and the limiting plate 8 form an integral body and are fixed on the output shaft of the slide table cylinder. Under the action of the slide table cylinder, the integral body formed by the lifting plate 14 and the limiting plate 8 is driven to move close to the tray for clamping or move away from the tray for relaxation.
[0035] It also includes a tray transmission structure which includes a fixing frame 17, a transmission belt 18, a driving motor 19 and a connecting block 20. The tray clamping structure is arranged on the fixing frame 17. The driving motor 19 is used to drive the transmission belt 18 to move back and forth. The fixing frame 17 is connected to the transmission belt 18 through the connecting block 20. The driving motor 19 drives the tray clamping structure to move back and forth between the loading position and the unloading position through the transmission belt 18.
[0036] When the utility model is in use, the staff pulls the frame body 2 out of the frame body 1 by using the handle 21, and then sequentially puts the trays into the tray picking and placing structure along the guidance of the limiting plate 8. Under the inclined shape on the upper side of the limiting plate 8, the trays can be conveniently put into the tray picking and placing structure. During the placing process of the trays, the supporting pieces 3 support the trays, so that the trays are stacked layer by layer along the height direction. After the trays are placed at an appropriate height, the staff pushes the frame body 2 into the frame body 1 along the guide rail 6 by using the handle 21;
[0037] After the frame body 2 is pushed into the frame body 1, the tray lifting structure is started. Under the action of the lifting motor 13, the threaded rod 12, the slider 11 and the linear guide rail 10, the supporting plate 5 moves upward and gradually approaches the bottom of the tray. Under the action of the supporting plate 5 and the positioning block 9 thereon, the tray is positioned and supported. During the process of the supporting plate 5 lifting the tray, the tray gradually separates from the supporting piece 3;
[0038] When the tray lifting structure lifts the tray to a certain height, the tray is located within the tray clamping structure at the loading position. Under the action of the slide cylinder 16, the clamping plate 15 and the lifting plate 14 clamp the tray, separating the topmost tray from the adjacent trays. The products on the tray are taken by the product filling equipment. After all the products on the tray are taken, the tray lifting structure starts to lift the clamped tray, and the tray clamping structure releases the tray.
[0039] When the tray clamping structure at the loading position releases the tray, the drive motor 19 in the tray transmission structure drives the tray clamping structure at the unloading position to move upward to the loading position through the connecting block 20, the transmission belt 18, and the fixing frame 17 and move directly above the tray clamping structure at the loading position. At this time, the tray lifting structure lifts the tray, making the empty tray located within the tray clamping structure within the fixing frame 17. Under the action of the slide cylinder 16, the empty tray is further clamped. At the same time, under the action of the tray transmission structure, the empty tray is moved to the unloading position, and the product filling equipment discharges the filled products.
[0040] The utility model adopts a tray picking and placing structure and a tray lifting structure to more conveniently place the tray into the product filling equipment. The frame in the tray picking and placing structure can be directly pulled out or pushed into the product filling equipment. On the one hand, it is at a relatively low position, and the staff does not need to manually lift the tray. On the other hand, its push-pull design can make the tray enter the product filling equipment more stably. At the same time, the limiting plate and the outwardly expanding inclined shape at the upper end of the limiting plate in the tray picking and placing structure can better place the tray.
[0041] The utility model adopts a tray lifting structure, a tray clamping structure, and a tray transmission structure to automatically move the empty tray at the loading position to the unloading position, reducing the operation procedures of the staff. Moreover, it directly reuses the same group of trays at the loading position, improving the utilization rate of the trays and reducing the vacancy rate of the trays.
