Head dolls generally include soft head dolls, hard head dolls, etc. Common head dolls are generally made of resin composite materials, and the production processes include injection molding and dip molding, etc.

[0003] The production of head dolls has multiple processing steps. For example, after the head of the head doll is injection molded, processes such as punching ear holes, screen printing eyes, hair, and eyebrows are carried out. Since the production quantity of head dolls is large, when the head dolls are processed between each process step, trays are generally used for transfer.

Using a mechanical device to achieve automatic head loading and unloading in the trays can reduce labor costs and improve work efficiency.

[0045] Please refer to Figure 6 、 Figure 7 and Figure 8, the angle adjustment device 9 includes a mounting bracket 901 installed on the top of the working platform 2. A first linear slide rail 902 is installed on the top of the mounting bracket 901.

A first slide cylinder 904 is installed on the top of the first linear slide rail 902. A first fixing plate 905 is installed on the top of the first slide cylinder 904. A second fixing plate 906 is rotatably connected to the side of the first fixing plate 905. Three groups of rotating rods 907 are rotatably connected to the side of the second fixing plate 906. All three groups of rotating rods 907 are connected to a driving device. By setting the angle adjustment device 9, the angle of the head can be adjusted, so that the head can be adjusted from the state with the side face facing up to the state with the face facing down.

[0046] Please refer to Figure 8 , a roller 908 is installed on the side of the second fixing plate 906. A second slide cylinder 909 is installed on the side of the first fixing plate 905. A linkage block 910 is installed at the end of the second slide cylinder 909. A vertical groove matching the movement track of the roller 908 is formed inside the linkage block 910. By setting the roller 908 on the side of the second fixing plate 906 and the vertical groove inside the linkage block 910, when the linkage block 910 moves, the roller 908 can be pushed to move in a curved line by using the vertical groove, thereby driving the second fixing plate 906 to rotate around the first fixing plate 905 by a certain angle.

[0047] Please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 9 , two groups of first positioning devices 10 are symmetrically arranged with respect to the angle adjustment device 9. The first positioning device 10 includes a base 1001. A second linear slide rail 1002 is installed on the top of the base 1001. A positioning template 1003 is installed on the top of the second linear slide rail 1002. The two groups of positioning templates 1003 are symmetrically arranged. By setting the first positioning device 10, the first gripper 402 works to transfer the head in the feeding mechanism 3 into the first positioning device 10.

[0048] Please refer to Figure 10 , the second positioning device 11 includes a third linear slide rail 1101. A positioning table 1102 is installed on the top of the third linear slide rail 1101. By setting the second positioning device 11, the second gripper 403 works to transfer the head in the second positioning device 11 to the tray.

[0049] Please refer to Figure 5 , the head positioning mechanism 5 includes a first photographing and positioning device 8 installed on the top of the working platform 2. The first photographing and positioning device 8 is located below the tray arranging mechanism 4. By setting the first photographing and positioning device 8, the tray arranging mechanism 4 can transfer the head to the first positioning device 10 more accurately.

[0050] Please refer to Figure 4The plate swing mechanism 4 includes a three-axis linkage mechanism 401, and a first gripper 402 and a second gripper 403 are installed on the side of the three-axis linkage mechanism 401. By setting the plate swing mechanism 4, it can be used to transfer the heads between different mechanisms.

[0051] See also Figure 3 The feeding mechanism 3 includes a material hoist 301, and a first conveying device 302 is installed on the side of the material hoist 301, and a toggle device 303 is installed on the top of the first conveying device 302, and a second conveying device 304 is installed on the bottom of the first conveying device 302, and the second conveying device 304 is connected to the material hoist 301 by setting a discharge chute. The feeding mechanism 3 can be used to transport the heads, and the toggle device 303 can flatten the heads in a vertical state so that their side faces face up.

[0052] See also Figure 11 The conveying mechanism 6 includes a conveying structure and a telescopic structure, which can transport and stop the pallet. The pallet can be transported by setting the conveying mechanism 6, and the pallet can be lifted up by the telescopic structure for placing the head.

[0053] See also Figure 12 The unloading mechanism 7 includes a robot arm 701, and a third gripper 702 is installed on the side of the robot arm 701, and a material box 703 is arranged on the side of the robot arm 701. By setting the robot arm 701 and the third gripper 702, the head can be transferred from the tray to the material box 703.

[0054] The working principle of the utility model is as follows: first, the headstock to be processed is put into the material hoist 301, and then the material hoist 301 is started. The material hoist 301 transfers the headstock to the first conveying device 302 in multiple times, and the first conveying device 302 is started intermittently. The first conveying device 302 drives the headstock to move, and the headstock will pass through the bottom of the toggle device 303. The toggle device 303 includes a telescopic component and a brush holder, and then the gap between the brush holder and the first conveying device 302 can be adjusted by the telescopic component. The height of the brush holder is adjusted so that the headstock transported by the first conveying device 302 is hit by the brush holder, and then the headstock in the vertical state can fall sideways. After being recognized by the camera system, some of the headstock that has not fallen sideways will fall into the second conveying device 304, and then the second conveying device 304 drives these parts of the headstock to be transferred to the material hoist 301 again, and the material hoist 301 is located to re-carry out the feeding work.

[0055] The head pieces that are located on the first conveying device 302 and are recognized by the photographing system as meeting the requirements will trigger the three-axis linkage mechanism 401 to drive the first gripper 402 to grab them three times. The first gripper 402 uses the principle of negative pressure adsorption to perform the grabbing work on the head pieces. After grabbing, it will drive the head pieces to rotate a certain angle. After being positioned and recognized by the first photographing and positioning device 8, among them, the head pieces with their left faces facing up are grabbed by the first gripper 402 in three groups and placed into a group of first positioning devices 10, while the head pieces with their right faces facing up are grabbed by the first gripper 402 in three groups and placed into another group of first positioning devices 10. The positioning templates 1003 of the two groups of first positioning devices 10 are symmetrically arranged, and thus the two positioning templates 1003 respectively correspond to and engage with the head pieces with their left faces facing up and the head pieces with their right faces facing up.

[0056] The two groups of first positioning devices 10 operate alternately. Driven by the second linear slide rail 1002 inside them, the positioning template 1003 is moved to the front of the angle adjustment device 9. Then, the first linear slide rail 902 is activated to adjust the height of the first slide cylinder 904. The first slide cylinder 904 is activated to push the first fixing plate 905 towards the positioning template 1003 in the front, so that the three groups of rotating rods 907 are inserted into the holes in the necks of the head pieces. Then, the first linear slide rail 902 extends, so that the three groups of rotating rods 907 lift the head pieces. Then, after being positioned and recognized by the second photographing and positioning device 903, the driving device connected to the tails of the rotating rods 907 drives them to rotate, adjusting the head pieces to face downwards. Then, the positioning template 1003 resets. Then, the third linear slide rail 1101 operates to drive the positioning table 1102 to move to the front of the angle adjustment device 9. The first linear slide rail 902 and the first slide cylinder 904 inside the angle adjustment device 9 operate to adjust the position. At the same time, the second slide cylinder 909 operates to push the linkage block 910 to displace a short distance, so that the vertical groove inside the linkage block 910 that matches the roller 908 drives the second fixing plate 906 to tilt at a certain angle. The vertical groove matches the movement trajectory of the roller 908 when the second fixing plate 906 rotates around the first fixing plate 905. Thus, the three groups of rotating rods 907 and the head pieces sleeved on their ends tilt downwards, allowing the three groups of head pieces to be engaged with the positioning table 1102.

[0057] Next, the three-axis linkage mechanism 401 drives the second gripper 403 on its side to grasp three groups of head pieces and neatly place them on the trays in the conveying mechanism 6. The conveying mechanism 6 includes a conveying structure for transporting the trays and a telescopic structure for lifting the trays. When the trays are gradually filled, the telescopic structure of the conveying mechanism 6 lowers the trays, and the trays are placed on the conveying structure. Then, the conveying structure starts to transport the trays to the outside of the equipment hood 1. Then, the staff takes the trays filled with head pieces for processing. After the processing is completed, the head pieces that are refilled and processed are placed on the conveying structure of the conveying mechanism 6. Adjust the position of the tray in the above manner to make it close to the blanking mechanism 7. Then, the robotic arm 701 operates to control the third gripper 702 to transfer the processed head pieces to the cartridge 703.
