[0002] E-commerce platforms and supermarkets report an increase in consumer demand for multi-packaging of food products, but this is at the expense of high packaging costs and low efficiency. Currently, most products packaged in stand-up pouches on production lines undergo secondary packaging without automation. Instead, they are manually assembled and sealed, or placed in secondary packaging machine molds based on the customer's package quantity requirements. This assembly method carries high labor costs and low efficiency. With the diversification of market demands, the demand for packaging small batches of products is growing, and the need to repackage products in three or five packs for sale is increasing. Therefore, developing a secondary packaging machine suitable for product packaging production lines that utilizes a robotic arm to automatically stack packages has become a key research focus for industry professionals.

[0031] The packaging machine equipment of the present application is applied to the product packaging production line. On the basis of not affecting the original product packaging production and transportation, the product on the conveyor line is moved to the conveyor mechanism by the loading robot, and the conveyor mechanism then conveys the product to the packaging machine for secondary packaging, thereby realizing the secondary packaging production of small batches such as three packs and five packs of products, and meeting the diversified packaging needs of products; the original conveyor line of the product can continue to run and convey, and the original conveying and boxing operations of the product can be carried out; in addition, the robot automatically grabs the package and places it, reducing the labor intensity of manual grabbing and placing the package, and the package grabbed by the robot is placed neatly and without damage, with high efficiency.

[0032] Furthermore, the conveying mechanism is a roller conveyor chain device or a conveyor belt device; a plurality of spaced conveyor plates are provided on the conveyor chain plate of the conveying mechanism, or a plurality of spaced conveyor plates are provided on the conveyor belt of the conveying mechanism, dividing the conveying mechanism into a plurality of small conveying intervals for accommodating products, which is conducive to the transfer of small batches of products to the packaging machine for secondary packaging.

The loading robot moves three times to load, grabs three packs of products from the conveyor line and places them in the same conveying small interval of the conveying mechanism. After the same conveying small interval is fully loaded with the target number (three packs) of products, the robot continues to absorb products from the conveyor line and loads them to the next conveying small interval; the conveying mechanism transports the target packaging number of products in the conveying small interval to the packaging machine for secondary packaging; if five packs of products are to be secondary packaged, the loading robot moves five times to load, grabs five packs of products from the conveyor line and places them in the same conveying small interval of the conveying mechanism. After the same conveying small interval is fully loaded with the target number (five packs) of products, the robot continues to absorb products from the conveyor line and loads them to the next conveying small interval; the conveying mechanism transports the target packaging number of products in the conveying small interval to the packaging machine for secondary packaging, thus meeting the diversified secondary packaging needs of small batches of products.

[0033] It should be noted that the conveying mechanism is an existing conveyor; the output end of the conveying mechanism extends to the inlet end of the packaging machine so that the conveyed products fall into the packaging machine for secondary packaging.

[0034] Furthermore, the suction cup manipulator includes: a mechanical rocker arm mounted on a frame, a suction cup seat connected to the bottom end of the mechanical rocker arm, a suction cup mounted on the suction cup seat, and a negative pressure device connected to the suction cup via a pipeline to provide negative pressure; and a sensing probe mounted on the suction cup seat. It should be noted that the negative pressure device is a prior art device, and the suction cup can be used to pick up and place products by controlling the on / off of the negative pressure pipeline connected to the suction cup. The loading manipulator used in this application adopts the commercially available ZXL100A manipulator.

[0035] It should be noted that the packaging machine is a horizontal stand-up bag packaging equipment, which uses the SZ801W model packaging machine equipment on the market.

On the basis of not affecting the original product packaging production and transportation, the product conveyor line can continue to run and convey, and the original product conveying and boxing are carried out. The packaging machine equipment of the present application moves the product on the conveyor line to the feeding conveyor mechanism through the feeding robot, and the conveyor mechanism then conveys the product to the packaging machine for secondary packaging, realizing the secondary packaging production of small batches such as three packs and five packs of products, and meeting the diversified packaging needs of products. The robot automatically grabs and places the packages, reducing the labor intensity of manual grabbing and placing the packages. The robot grabs and places the packages neatly and without damage, and the efficiency is high.
