The material picking and unloading robot 2 is used to move the product box to the workbench 1 and move the product box after buckling to another specified position. The rear positioning component 3 mainly positions the rear of the product box. The clamping box positioning component 4 mainly positions the two sides of the product box, and the clamping box positioning component 4 and the rear positioning component 3 cooperate to position the product box. The folding side ear component 5 is used to bend the side ears on both sides of the product box into the product box. The long tongue lifting component 6 is used to lift the long tongue at the front of the product box. The buckle box component 7 is used to bend the lifted long tongue into the product box, and then push the long tongue of the product box to buckle the box.

[0030] refer to Figure 11 The figure shows the specific process of closing a product box. During use, the loading and unloading robot 2 picks up the product box and moves it to the designated location on the workbench 1. The clamping and positioning assembly 4 activates, clamping the product box and positioning it on both sides. The rear positioning assembly 3 extends to position the rear side of the product box. The folding ear assembly 5 activates, bending the side ears on both sides of the box 90 degrees. The long tongue lifting assembly 6 activates, lifting the long tongue of the product box to a certain angle. The closing assembly 7 activates, advances a distance, and then pushes the long tongue upright, flattening the long tongue and approaching the product box opening. It then advances and pushes the long tongue into the product box opening, completing the closing operation. Using mechanical equipment to replace manual methods realizes fully automatic closing of product boxes, greatly improving work efficiency.

[0031] like Figure 4-5As shown, the picking and placing robot 2 includes a mounting bracket 8, a first linear module 9 arranged on the mounting bracket 8, a base plate 10 installed on the linear module, one or more first cylinders 11 installed on the base plate 10, and a suction nozzle group 12 arranged on the telescopic end of the first gas rod; the linear module drives the base plate 10 to move linearly; the first cylinder 11 drives the suction nozzle to longitudinally move the product and absorb loading or unloading.

[0032] The first linear module 9 can adopt a servo motor screw module, a synchronous belt linear module or a linear motor. The first linear module 9 is mainly used to realize linear movement of the mechanical parts. The base plate 10 is installed on the first linear module 9 and is driven by the first linear module 9 to drive linear movement. Two groups of first cylinders 11 and two groups of suction nozzle groups 12 can be installed on the base plate 10. When in use, the first cylinder 11 drives the suction nozzle group 12 to absorb the unfastened product box and load it under the movement of the first linear module 9. At the same time, the second cylinder 18 drives the suction nozzle group 12 to absorb the fastened product box and unload it under the movement of the first linear module 9, completing the loading and unloading operations of the product box, and improving the processing efficiency.

[0033] The mounting bracket 8 includes a pair of parallel and spaced guide shafts 13, a connecting plate 14 arranged at the upper end of the guide shaft 13, an adjusting screw 15 arranged on the connecting plate 14, a handwheel 16 connected to the adjusting screw 15, and a mounting plate 17 sleeved on the handwheel 16; the first linear module 9 is arranged on the mounting plate 17; the handwheel 16 is driven by external force to adjust the longitudinal height position of the mounting plate 17.

[0034] During use, the operator can adjust the height of the mounting plate 17 in the longitudinal direction by rotating the hand wheel 16 , and can make adaptive adjustments according to the heights of different product boxes, which is convenient to adjust.

[0035] like Figure 6 As shown, the rear positioning assembly 3 includes a second cylinder 18 and a push plate 19 provided on the telescopic end of the second cylinder 18 , and the second cylinder 18 drives the push plate 19 to contact and position with the rear of the product box.

[0036] The use process of the rear positioning assembly 3 is as follows: after the product box is clamped on both sides by the clamping box positioning assembly 4, under the drive of the second cylinder 18, its telescopic end drives the push plate 19 to move toward the rear of the product box for contact positioning.

[0042] The long tongue on the product box refers to the structure that allows the snap box to open in the product box. In practice, a tongue-lifting assembly 6 is located below the corresponding tongue. The third linear module 25 utilizes a servo motor and lead screw module. The travel of the third linear module 25 is limited by installing a sensor group on one side of the third linear module 25. The spacing between the sensors limits the travel of the third linear module 25. During use, the third linear module 25 drives the lift roller 26 to move longitudinally, lifting the tongue of the product box.

[0044] The buckle box assembly 7 is mainly used to buckle the long tongue of the product box on the product box. Specifically, the fourth linear module 27 can adopt a servo motor screw module, a synchronous belt linear module or a linear motor. The fourth linear module 27 is used to drive the connecting bracket 28 to move toward the product box. After moving into position, the fifth cylinder 31 drives the inclined plate 32 to bend the long tongue, and then the fourth cylinder 29 drives the push block 30 to move, and the long tongue buckle box is placed on the product box, thereby completing the fully automatic buckle box operation of the product box, greatly improving the buckle box efficiency, and no manual operation is required.

[0045] The above does not limit the technical scope of the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent changes and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention are still within the scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
