Rather, these embodiments are provided to make the present invention more thorough and complete, and to fully convey the scope of the present invention to those skilled in the art.

[0046] Example 1

[0047] like Figure 1-Figure 5 As shown, this embodiment provides a bagged beverage stacking device, which includes:

[0048] The shaping conveying unit 100 includes an inlet end and an outlet end. The shaping conveying unit 100 gradually converges from the inlet end to the outlet end. The shaping conveying unit 100 is used to arrange the scattered bagged beverages into rows;

[0049] A lifting and stacking unit 200, the lifting and stacking unit 200 being connected to the outlet end, the lifting and stacking unit 200 comprising a lifting platform 210 and a lifting drive mechanism, the lifting drive mechanism driving the lifting platform 210 to move in a direction perpendicular to the lifting platform 210;

[0050] The partition supply unit 300 is arranged on one side of the lifting and stacking unit 200. The partition supply unit 300 includes a partition bin 310 for storing material partitions 400 and a partition transfer mechanism 320. A partition discharge window 311 is provided on the partition bin 310. The partition discharge window 311 faces the lifting platform 210. The partition transfer mechanism 320 is arranged in the partition bin 310. The partition transfer mechanism 320 drives the material partition 400 from the partition discharge window 311 into the lifting and stacking unit 200.

[0051] It should be noted that the material partition 400 refers to a plate-like structure used to separate different levels of bagged beverages, and can be made of materials such as cardboard and plastic. Its size is determined according to the size of the bagged beverages and packaging requirements.

[0052] Specifically, the lifting drive mechanism can use any driving method such as a motor, a hydraulic cylinder, a pneumatic cylinder, etc. to achieve the vertical movement of the lifting platform 210.

[0053] Furthermore, the lifting platform 210 is tilted downward in a direction away from the shaping and conveying unit 100 , and a baffle is provided at one end of the lifting platform 210 away from the shaping and conveying unit 100 , and the baffle is perpendicular to the lifting platform 210 .

[0054] Specifically, the inclination angle of the lifting platform 210 can be adjusted according to actual needs. Specifically, it is more appropriate to set the inclination angle of the lifting platform 210 to the horizontal plane between 5 degrees and 20 degrees.

[0055] Furthermore, it also includes a control component, which is electrically connected to the lifting drive mechanism and the partition transfer mechanism 320, and the control component is used to control the movement of the lifting drive mechanism and the partition transfer mechanism 320.

[0056] Specifically, the control component can be implemented using a variety of controllers such as PLC, single-chip microcomputer, etc., and the coordinated movement of the lifting drive mechanism and the partition transfer mechanism 320 can be controlled through a predetermined control program.

[0057] Furthermore, it also includes a detection unit, which is electrically connected to the control component. The detection unit includes a proximity sensor, which is arranged near the lifting and stacking unit 200 and is used to detect the height of the lifting platform 210.

[0058] In addition to the proximity sensor, other types of sensors may also be used to detect the height of the lifting platform 210 , such as a photoelectric sensor, a laser displacement sensor, and the like.

[0059] Specifically, the shaping conveying unit 100 includes several conveying rails 110, the cross-sections of the conveying rails 110 are all U-shaped, and the width of the conveying rails 110 gradually decreases from the entrance end to the exit end. A shaping slope 111 is provided in the conveying rail 110, and the shaping slope 111 is inclined from the bottom surface of the conveying rail 110 to the side surface of the conveying rail 110. The width of one end of the conveying rail 110 close to the entrance end is greater than the width of the bagged beverage, and the width of the other end is equal to the thickness of the bagged beverage.

[0060] More specifically, the number, spacing, and inclination angle of the conveyor tracks 110 can be adjusted based on actual needs. In addition to the U-shaped conveyor track 110, other track shapes, such as V-shaped and curved, can also be used. The angle and shape of the shaping slope 111 can be optimized based on the size and characteristics of the packaged beverage, and a curved surface can be used instead of a slope.

[0061] More specifically, the partition transfer mechanism 320 is provided at the bottom of the partition bin 310 , the material partitions 400 are stacked in parallel above the partition transfer mechanism 320 , and the partition discharge window 311 faces the lowest material partition 400 .

[0062] The partition transfer mechanism 320 can be set at any position of the partition bin 310. It only needs to ensure that the partition transfer mechanism 320 can smoothly drive the material partition 400 into the lifting and stacking unit 200. Any grasping method can be used, such as: suction cup suction and transfer, belt transmission, robotic arm grasping, etc.

[0063] More specifically, the partition transfer mechanism 320 includes a hook 321 and a drive rail 322. The drive rail 322 is arranged on both sides of the partition discharge window 311. The drive rail 322 is perpendicular to the partition discharge window 311. The hook 321 is fixed on the drive rail 322. The drive rail 322 is electrically connected to the control component. The drive rail 322 drives the hook 321 to approach or move away from the partition discharge window 311, and the hook 321 tilts toward the direction close to the partition discharge window 311.

[0064] The driving track 322 is a straight track, and there can be one or more hooks 321. In this embodiment, there are two hooks 321. The two hooks 321 can be fixed on the two driving tracks 322 respectively, or can be mounted between the two driving tracks 322 through a connecting column.

[0065] The working process of the bagged beverage stacking device in this embodiment is as follows:

[0066] 1. Shaping and conveying: Scattered bagged beverages enter from the entrance end of the shaping and conveying unit 100 and are arranged into a neat single row under the guidance of several gradually converging U-shaped conveying tracks 110 and shaping slopes 111, and are finally conveyed to the lifting platform 210 of the lifting and stacking unit 200.

[0067] 2. Stacking preparation: The initial position of the lifting platform 210 is at the highest point, flush with the outlet end of the shaping and conveying unit 100. The proximity sensor in the detection unit monitors the height of the lifting platform 210 in real time and feeds the information back to the control component.

[0068] 3. Lowering and Supplying Sheets: The control assembly controls the lift drive mechanism, lowering the lift platform 210 to a preset height. The proximity sensor detects this height change, triggering the control assembly to activate the shelf supply unit 300. The drive rail 322 drives the hook 321 to grab a shelf from the bottom of the shelf bin 310 and deliver it to the lift stacking unit 200, where it is placed above the packaged beverages.

[0069] 4. Stacking drinks: The lifting platform 210 rises so that the top material partition 400 is flush with the outlet end of the shaping and conveying unit 100, ready to receive the next layer of drinks.

[0070] 5. Repeat steps 3-4: the shaping and conveying unit 100 continues to convey the arranged drinks, the lifting platform 210 and the partition supply unit 300 work together to insert partitions between each layer of drinks until the preset stacking height is reached. When the stacking reaches the preset height, the device stops working, and finally a neat and stable multi-layer stack of bagged drinks is formed.

[0071] The bagged beverage stacking device in this embodiment realizes the automated, efficient and orderly stacking of bagged beverages through the coordinated work of the shaping conveying unit 100, the lifting and stacking unit 200 and the partition supply unit 300. The design of the U-shaped conveying track 110 and the shaping slope 111 can efficiently organize the scattered bagged beverages into a single row and guide them to be arranged vertically. The proximity sensor monitors the height of the lifting platform 210 in real time, and the control component accurately controls the stop position of the lifting platform 210 according to the height information, thereby ensuring the neatness of the stacking. The bottom-loading partition supply unit 300 has a simple structure and is convenient for replenishing partitions. In conjunction with the hook 321 and the drive track 322, the partitions can be accurately grasped and placed, ensuring a stable and reliable supply of partitions. The inclined lifting platform 210 and the baffle design can use gravity to naturally guide the arranged beverages to slide backwards, preventing sliding and dislocation during the beverage stacking process, thereby ensuring the stability of the stacking.

[0072] Example 2

[0073] like Figure 5-Figure 9 As shown, this embodiment provides a bagged beverage stacking device, which includes:

[0074] The shaping conveying unit 100 includes an inlet end and an outlet end. The shaping conveying unit 100 gradually converges from the inlet end to the outlet end. The shaping conveying unit 100 is used to arrange the scattered bagged beverages into rows;

[0075] A lifting and stacking unit 200, the lifting and stacking unit 200 being connected to the outlet end, the lifting and stacking unit 200 comprising a lifting platform 210 and a lifting drive mechanism, the lifting drive mechanism driving the lifting platform 210 to move in a direction perpendicular to the lifting platform 210;

[0076] The partition supply unit 300 is arranged on one side of the lifting and stacking unit 200. The partition supply unit 300 includes a partition bin 310 for storing material partitions 400 and a partition transfer mechanism 320. A partition discharge window 311 is provided on the partition bin 310. The partition discharge window 311 faces the lifting platform 210. The partition transfer mechanism 320 is arranged in the partition bin 310. The partition transfer mechanism 320 drives the material partition 400 from the partition discharge window 311 into the lifting and stacking unit 200.

[0077] In this embodiment, the lifting drive mechanism is a servo motor. This servo motor drive allows for more precise positioning and speed control. Baffles are provided on both sides of the lifting platform 210 to maintain the bagged beverages on the lifting platform 210 in an upright position, preventing them from falling due to gravity, which could disrupt their arrangement and affect the neatness of the bagged beverage packaging.

[0078] Specifically, the shape and size of the partition bin 310 can be designed based on actual needs. For example, a circular partition bin 310 can be used in conjunction with a rotating mechanism to supply partitions. Multiple partition bins 310 can be provided, each storing partitions of different sizes or materials to accommodate different sizes of packaged beverages. A sensor, such as a photoelectric sensor or a proximity sensor, can be installed at the partition discharge window 311 to detect whether a partition has been discharged and whether the partition is correctly positioned.

[0079] Furthermore, it also includes a control component, which is electrically connected to the lifting drive mechanism and the partition transfer mechanism 320, and the control component is used to control the movement of the lifting drive mechanism and the partition transfer mechanism 320.

[0080] The control component can use an industrial computer or embedded system as the control core to implement more complex control logic and human-computer interaction functions. It can also be connected to the factory's MES system to achieve real-time collection and monitoring of production data.

[0081] The system further includes a detection unit, which is electrically connected to the control component. The detection unit includes a proximity sensor, which is located near the lifting and stacking unit 200 and is used to detect the height of the lifting platform 210 .

[0082] The detection unit further includes a detection camera, which is disposed above the lifting platform 210 and faces the lifting platform 210 . The detection camera is electrically connected to the control component.

[0083] Specifically, a weighing sensor may be installed on the lifting platform 210 to detect the weight of each layer of beverages, determine whether the number of beverages is the same as expected, and adjust the stacking height or quantity according to the weight information.

[0084] Furthermore, the shaping conveying unit 100 includes several conveying rails 110, the cross-sections of the conveying rails 110 are all U-shaped, and the width of the conveying rails 110 gradually decreases from the entrance end to the exit end. A shaping slope 111 is provided in the conveying rail 110, and the shaping slope 111 is inclined from the bottom surface of the conveying rail 110 to the side surface of the conveying rail 110. The width of one end of the conveying rail 110 close to the entrance end is greater than the width of the bagged beverage, and the width of the other end is equal to the thickness of the bagged beverage.

[0085] Furthermore, the partition transfer mechanism 320 is arranged at the top of the partition bin 310, and a top material assembly 330 is also provided below the partition transfer mechanism 320. The material partition 400 is stacked in parallel between the partition transfer mechanism 320 and the top material assembly 330. The top material assembly 330 includes a top plate 331 and a pushing cylinder 332. The top plate 331 abuts against the material partition 400. The pushing cylinder 332 is arranged at the bottom of the top plate 331. The pushing cylinder 332 drives the top plate 331 to move in a vertical direction.

[0086] In addition to pushing the cylinder 332 , a motor, a spring, or the like may be used to drive the top plate 331 to tighten the material partition plate 400 .

[0087] More specifically, the partition transfer mechanism 320 includes a plurality of partition driving wheels 323 and a roller driver 324. The axis of the partition driving wheel 323 is parallel to the partition discharge window 311. The partition driving wheel 323 contacts the plate surface of the material partition 400. The roller driver 324 is electrically connected to the control component. The roller driver 324 drives the partition driving wheel 323 to rotate, thereby driving the material partition 400 to move.

[0088] The working process of the bagged beverage stacking device in this embodiment is as follows:

[0089] 1. Shaping and conveying: Scattered bagged beverages enter from the entrance end of the shaping and conveying unit 100 and are arranged into a neat single row under the guidance of several gradually converging U-shaped conveying tracks 110 and shaping slopes 111, and are finally conveyed to the lifting platform 210 of the lifting and stacking unit 200.

[0090] 2. Stacking Preparation: Lifting platform 210 is initially positioned at its highest point, flush with the outlet of shaping and conveying unit 100. A proximity sensor monitors the height of lifting platform 210 in real time and feeds this information back to the control unit. A detection camera captures real-time images of the bagged beverages on lifting platform 210.

[0091] 3. Lowering and supplying partitions: When the detection camera captures in real time that a single row of bagged beverages has completely entered the lifting platform 210, the control component is triggered to start the partition supply unit 300, and the roller driver 324 drives the partition drive wheel 323 to rotate, pushing the top material partition 400 out of the partition bin 310 and sending it into the lifting stacking unit 200, and laying it above the bagged beverages.

[0092] 4. Stacking drinks: The control component controls the lifting drive mechanism. The proximity sensor detects the height of the material partition 400 above the lifting platform 210 and feeds the information back to the control component. When the lifting platform 210 descends to the point where the upper material partition 400 is flush with the outlet end of the shaping and conveying unit 100, it stops and prepares to receive the next layer of drinks.

[0093] 5. Repeat steps 3-4: The shaping and conveying unit 100 continues to convey the arranged drinks. The lifting platform 210 and the partition supply unit 300 work together to insert partitions between each layer of drinks until the preset stacking height is reached. When the stacking reaches the preset height, the device stops, and finally a neat and stable multi-layer stack of bagged drinks is formed.

[0094] The bagged beverage stacking device in this embodiment, through the servo motor-driven lifting platform 210 and the roller-driven partition transfer mechanism 320, cooperates with the precise control of the control component, can achieve precise control of the height of the lifting platform 210 and the partition supply position, thereby improving the accuracy and efficiency of stacking. The detection camera captures the image information of the beverages on the lifting platform 210 in real time. The control component can determine whether the beverages are arranged neatly based on the image information and adjust the relevant parameters in time to ensure that the stacking process is stable and orderly, further improving the accuracy and reliability of stacking. The top-loading partition supply unit 300 cooperates with the top material component 330 to ensure that the partitions are always in a tightly arranged state, which is convenient for the partition drive wheel 323 to grab and improve the efficiency of the partition supply. The bagged beverage stacking device in this embodiment has a higher degree of automation, higher stacking accuracy, and higher efficiency, and can better meet the large-scale, high-standard bagged beverage packaging needs.
