[0002] In material transportation, a mother pallet is commonly used to load different sub-pallets. At this time, it is necessary to make the sub-pallet in the center position of the mother pallet to facilitate subsequent steps such as material transfer and processing. Currently, the commonly used centering method requires two to three centering devices to respectively achieve different positioning functions. The centering and shaping process of the pallet passes through more devices, resulting in low efficiency. Moreover, too many devices will also increase costs and occupy too much space in the factory building. In view of the above defects, this application is proposed. Summary of the Utility Model
[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a four-way pallet centering machine for logistics transportation, which integrates multiple centering and shaping steps into one device to achieve efficient centering work on the sub-pallet and can meet the centering and shaping requirements of different types of pallets.
[0004] To solve the above problems, the utility model provides a four-way pallet centering machine for logistics transportation, including a bottom centering mechanism, a lifting centering mechanism and a positioning and regularizing mechanism. The bottom centering mechanism and the lifting centering mechanism are used to achieve four-way centering of the sub-pallet. The bottom centering mechanism includes a first centering drive assembly and at least two groups of bottom centering guides. The first centering drive assembly is used to drive the bottom centering guides to approach and separate from each other to achieve positioning on both sides of the sub-pallet conveying direction. The lifting centering mechanism includes a lifting drive assembly, a second centering drive assembly and at least two groups of lifting guides. The lifting drive assembly is used to adjust the height change of the lifting guides to adapt to different types of pallets. The second centering drive assembly is used to drive the lifting guides to approach and separate from each other to achieve positioning of the sub-pallet in the conveying direction. The four-way centering effect is achieved through the bottom centering guides and the lifting guides. The positioning and regularizing mechanism includes a positioning body, and the positioning body is used to position the mother pallet to a set position to achieve positioning and regularization of the mother pallet.
[0005] The positioning and regularizing mechanism is used to regularize and position the mother pallet so that the stop position of the mother pallet is at the set position, thereby ensuring that the subsequent sub-pallet is in the center of the mother pallet.

[0008] Preferably, the positioning body is a roller, which reduces the friction with the mother tray during positioning.
[0009] Preferably, rolling elements are installed on the bottom centering guide.
[0010] Optionally, the rolling elements include a plurality of rollers, and structures such as a plurality of ball bearings or a rolling belt that can achieve rolling friction contact with the sub-tray can also be provided. The bottom centering mechanism needs to be in a clamping state for the tray during tray conveying. Using rolling elements can make the tray only subject to the clamping force, greatly reducing the friction in the running direction.

[0016] Optionally, the conveying mechanism can be belt conveying, chain conveying, etc. The conveying mechanism includes a plurality of conveying components with gaps therebetween, which reduces costs.
[0017] The beneficial effect of the present invention is that by providing a bottom centering mechanism, a lifting centering mechanism, and a positioning and regularizing mechanism, several steps of centering and regularization are integrated into the same device, improving the work efficiency of centering and regularizing the mother and sub-trays, reducing the number of devices required for centering and regularization work, and being compatible with different specifications of sub-trays to meet the centering and shaping requirements of different types of trays.

The bottom centering mechanism 4 and the lifting centering mechanism 3 are used to achieve four-way centering of the sub-pallet, and the positioning and rectifying mechanism 5 is used to rectify and position the mother pallet, so that the stop position of the mother pallet is at the set position, thereby ensuring that the subsequent sub-pallet is at the center of the mother pallet.
[0026] Such as Figure 3 , Figure 4 , the bottom centering mechanism 4 includes a first centering drive assembly and at least two groups of bottom centering guides 41. The two groups of bottom centering guides 41 are arranged on both sides of the conveying assembly 2. The first centering drive assembly is used to drive the bottom centering guides 41 to approach and move away from each other, so as to achieve positioning on both sides of the sub-pallet conveying direction.
[0027] Preferably, rolling elements 42 are installed on the bottom centering guides 41, such as Figure 4 , the rolling elements 42 are a number of rollers, which reduce the friction during positioning in the process of sub-pallet conveying.
[0028] The bottom centering guides 41 are installed on the slide rails 46 through a guide frame body 45.
[0029] Such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 , the lifting centering mechanism 3 includes a lifting drive assembly 31, a lifting frame 32, a second centering drive assembly 34, and at least two groups of lifting guides 33. The two groups of lifting guides 33 are arranged in sequence along the conveying direction of the conveying assembly 2. The lifting drive assembly 31 is used to adjust the height of the lifting frame 32 and then adjust the height change of the lifting guides 33 to adapt to different types of pallets. The second centering drive assembly is used to drive the lifting guides 33 to approach and move away from each other, so as to achieve positioning of the sub-pallet in the conveying direction.
[0030] The four-way centering effect is achieved through the bottom centering guide 41 and the lifting guide 33.
[0031] The first centering drive assembly, the second centering drive assembly 34, and the lifting drive assembly 31 can all be directly driven by telescopic modules such as cylinders, hydraulic cylinders, or electric cylinders.
[0032] Such as Figure 2 , the positioning and regularizing mechanism 5 includes a positioning body 51, and the positioning body 51 is used to position the mother tray to a set position, realizing the positioning and regularization of the mother tray.
[0033] Specifically, two groups of positioning and regularizing mechanisms 5 are symmetrically arranged.

The swing assembly 52 includes a swing shaft and a swing frame. The positioning body 51 is a roller, which is used to reduce the friction between the positioning and the mother tray. The positioning body 51 is installed on the swing frame. The swing drive 53 is a cylinder, which is connected to the swing shaft through a connecting rod, and drives the swing shaft to rotate, thereby swinging the swing frame to block the mother tray to achieve positioning.
[0034] Embodiment 2, different from Embodiment 1, in this embodiment, one or all of the first centering drive assembly, the second centering drive assembly 34, and the lifting drive assembly 31 adopt a synchronous drive mechanism.

The synchronous belt 44 is respectively connected to the guide frames 45 of the two bottom centering guides 41. The telescopic drive 43 adopts a cylinder and can be directly connected to one of the guide frames 45. When the cylinder acts, the two side guide frames 45 move synchronously through the synchronous belt 44.
[0036] It should be noted that the above synchronous belt can also be a structure such as a chain.
[0037] The same is true for the second centering drive assembly 34 and the lifting drive assembly 31. According to the requirements of driving stability, the number of cylinders and synchronous belts can be increased. For example, in the lifting drive assembly 31, such as Figure 2 , the upper cylinder 311 drives the horizontal synchronous belt 312, and through transmission, the two longitudinal synchronous belts 313 on both sides act, thereby driving the lifting frame 32 to act.
