[0001] The utility model relates to the field of palletizers, in particular to a gantry palletizer assembly. Background Art
[0002] Palletizing systems are widely used in production. After goods are packed, whether they are sent to a warehouse for storage or shipped via logistics, they often need to be neatly arranged and stacked layer by layer to save space. Palletizers are primarily used for handling goods within warehouses, replacing manual labor, improving efficiency, and reducing costs.
[0003] Related technology can refer to the Chinese patent application with publication number CN115057157A, which discloses a low-level gantry palletizer. The low-level gantry palletizer includes a pallet conveyor, a main distribution cabinet, and an operating table. The pallet conveyor is sequentially provided with a pallet separator and a gantry palletizer body. A sizing mechanism is provided on one side of the gantry palletizer body. The sizing mechanism includes a cargo separator and a cargo sizing machine. The pallet conveyor, the pallet separator, the gantry palletizer body, the cargo separator, and the cargo sizing machine input terminals are electrically connected to the main distribution cabinet output terminal, and the operating table output terminal is electrically connected to the pallet conveyor, the pallet separator, the gantry palletizer body, the cargo separator, and the cargo sizing machine input terminals. The low-level gantry palletizer arranges cargo neatly by using the sizing machine provided on one side of the gantry palletizer body, separates the accumulated cargo by using the cargo separator, and arranges cargo neatly by using the cargo sizing machine, thereby ensuring the stability of the gantry palletizer body stacking.
[0004] Regarding the above-mentioned related technologies, when working, the goods are transported to the cargo separator, the goods are sorted and arranged by the cargo straightening machine, and then transported to the gantry palletizer body. After the goods are sorted at the gantry palletizer body, the push plate pushes the goods to the straightening temporary storage area. The conveyor belt in the temporary storage area sends the goods to the pallet conveyor to complete the palletizing of the goods. The low-level gantry palletizer needs to first take the goods from the truck and then transport the goods to the cargo separator. The process is relatively cumbersome and the operation is inconvenient. Utility Model Content

When the number of goods on the conveyor belt 8 reaches a preset value, the counting sensor controls the second baffle 77 to rise vertically to block the goods on the accumulation device 7, and the push plate 81 pushes the goods to the goods temporary storage area 83. When the number of goods on the conveyor belt 8 is lower than the preset value, the counting sensor controls the baffle to fall vertically back to the initial state. When the goods temporary storage area 83 stores the preset number, the push plate 81 pushes the goods to the goods stacking area. The goods stacking area is provided with a lifting plate, which lifts the goods to the pallet height, and the push plate 81 pushes the goods above the goods stacking area to the upper end surface of the pallet. When the number of goods on the pallet reaches the preset value, the pallet is transported on the pallet conveyor 1. A hoist 9 is provided at one end of the pallet conveyor 1 along the length direction. When the goods are transported to the hoist 9, the hoist 9 is lifted to the specified height, and the roller in the hoist 9 rotates to transport the goods to the next process, thereby improving the convenience of palletizing.
