Detailed Embodiments

[0019] The features and exemplary embodiments of various aspects of the present utility model will be described in detail below. In order to make the purpose, technical solutions, and advantages of the present utility model clearer, the following further describes the present utility model in detail in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. For those skilled in the art, the present utility model can be implemented without some of these specific details. The following description of the embodiments is only to provide a better understanding of the present utility model by showing examples of the present utility model.

[0020] As Figures 1-3 shown, the present utility model provides a technical solution for a fully automatic long-strip machine material sorting mechanism: including two groups of vertical frames 1. Between these two groups of vertical frames 1, a sorting bin 3 is provided. The function of the bin 3 is to temporarily store and classify the materials to be processed. A front-back moving seat 21 is also designed between the two groups of vertical frames 1, and the front-back moving seat 21 can move in the front-back direction as needed.

[0021] A front-back moving module 2 is also equipped between the front-back moving seat 21 and the vertical frame 1. The moving module 2 can achieve precise control in the front-back direction, so as to ensure that the materials can be accurately sent to the designated position. In addition, left-right moving modules 41 are installed on the front-back moving seat 21, and these modules 41 can achieve left-right movement.

[0022] Both the front-back moving module 2 and the left-right moving module 41 are connected and controlled through a PLC controller. The PLC controller can achieve precise control of these modules, ensuring the overall operation efficiency and accuracy. The moving end of the left-right moving module 41 is connected to a left-right moving seat 42, and these left-right moving seats 42 can move precisely in the left-right direction according to instructions to adapt to different operation requirements.

[0023] A lifting cylinder 45 is provided on the left-right moving seat 42. The function of the lifting cylinder 45 is to achieve vertical movement, so as to facilitate the picking and placing of materials. The output end of the lifting cylinder 45 is connected to a lifting frame 46, and the lifting frame 46 can perform corresponding lifting movements according to the actions of the cylinder 45. A suction cup seat 47 is installed on the lifting frame 46. These suction cup seats 47 are structures for fixing suction cups, ensuring the stability of the suction cups during operation.

[0024] A suction cup frame 48 is provided at the bottom of the suction cup seat 47, and several suction cups 49 are evenly distributed on the suction cup frame 48. These suction cups 49 are key components for directly contacting and adsorbing materials. In order to ensure that the suction cups 49 can effectively adsorb materials, the suction cups 49 are connected to a vacuum generator through an air pipeline. The function of the vacuum generator is to provide the negative pressure required for the suction cups 49 to adsorb materials, so as to ensure that the materials can be firmly adsorbed on the suction cups for subsequent handling and sorting work.

[0025] Above and obliquely above the front and rear moving seat 21, a defective marking camera 51 and a cutting deviation camera 52 are respectively arranged. Specifically, the defective marking camera can be used in cooperation for identification and positioning. The defective marking camera can monitor the marking information on the surface of the material in real time, identify defective products or materials that require special treatment. The camera is connected to the PLC controller and can transmit the identified information to the PLC in real time. The PLC analyzes and processes the information and commands the front and rear moving module 2, the left and right moving module 41, and the lifting cylinder 45 to perform corresponding actions to ensure that the defective products are accurately sorted to the designated area.

[0026] In this embodiment, during use, when the material needs to be sorted, the PLC controller receives the corresponding instruction and activates the front and rear moving module 2 and the left and right moving module 41. The front and rear moving module 2 drives the front and rear moving seat 21 to move in the front and rear direction to position the material at a suitable position. At the same time, the left and right moving module 41 drives the left and right moving seat 42 to make precise adjustments in the left and right direction to ensure that the material can be accurately placed on the lifting frame 46.

[0027] The lifting cylinder 45 controls the lifting frame 46 to move in the vertical direction according to the instruction of the PLC controller. When the lifting frame 46 descends to a suitable position, the suction cup 49 contacts the surface of the material. At this time, the vacuum generator starts to work to generate negative pressure, enabling the suction cup 49 to adsorb the material. After the suction cup 49 firmly adsorbs the material, the lifting frame 46 starts to rise to lift the material to the designated height.

[0028] Subsequently, the front and rear moving module 2 and the left and right moving module 41 work together again to move the lifting frame 46 together with the adsorbed material to the target position. After reaching the target position, the lifting cylinder 45 acts again to lower the lifting frame 46, and the suction cup 49 releases the material. The material is accurately placed in the target area to complete the sorting process.

[0029] The utility model not only improves the efficiency and accuracy of material sorting, but also reduces the labor cost and enhances the automation degree of the production process, having a wide application prospect.

[0030] As Figures 1-2 shown, wherein, sliding seats 43 are arranged at the bottoms of the front and rear moving seat 21 and the left and right moving seat 42, and sliding rails 44 adapted to the sliding seats 43 are arranged inside the sliding seats 43.

[0031] In this embodiment, the design of the sliding seat 43 enables the front and rear moving seat 21 and the left and right moving seat 42 to achieve smooth and stable movement in their respective moving directions. The cooperation of the sliding rails 44 and the sliding seats 43 ensures the accuracy and reliability of the moving seat during movement, reduces the errors caused by friction and wear, thereby improving the service life and working efficiency of the entire sorting mechanism.

[0032] Working principle and usage process of the present utility model: After the present utility model is installed, it works according to the above-mentioned implementation manner until all working steps are completed.
