Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0026] See also Figures 1 to 4 An embodiment of the utility model provides a Tray automatic loading mechanism, which is used for loading and unloading blister trays. In this embodiment, the structure of the automatic loading device is improved to have the advantages of small space occupation, recycling empty trays and reducing the labor intensity of workers.

[0027] Example 1:

[0028] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 In order to support the mounting plate 7, it includes a support plate 2 fixedly mounted on the upper end of the base plate 1, a sleeve 8 for positioning is fixedly mounted on the upper end of the base plate 1, a vertical rod 9 for supporting is clamped inside the sleeve 8, a horizontal plate 10 for positioning is fixedly mounted on the lower end of the vertical rod 9, a first cylinder 11 is fixedly mounted on the upper end of the horizontal plate 10, a motor 12 is fixedly mounted on the lower end of the base plate 1, and a baffle 13 for limiting is fixedly mounted on the lower end of the base plate 1;

[0029] By setting the sleeve 8, the vertical rod 9, the horizontal plate 10 and the first cylinder 11, the mounting plate 7 can be lifted and lowered, so that it is convenient for the staff to place the material tray on the upper end of the mounting plate 7. By setting the motor 12 and the baffle 13, the height of the recovered empty material tray can be adjusted to prevent the empty tray from turning over when entering the recovery area.

[0030] Example 2:

[0031] See also Figures 1 to 4 In order to position and fix the material tray moved to the material taking area, a fixing frame 3 for positioning is fixedly installed on the upper end of the support plate 2, a guide rail 4 for movement is fixedly installed on the inner side wall of the fixing frame 3, and a carrier plate 5 for installation is clamped on the outer surface of the guide rail 4. A transport cylinder 6 is fixedly installed on the lower end of the fixing frame 3, a mounting block 14 for positioning is fixedly installed on the upper end of the fixing frame 3, a second cylinder 15 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the mounting block 14, a fixing block 16 for connection is fixedly installed on the upper end of the fixing frame 3, and a third cylinder 17 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the fixing block 16;

[0032] By setting the mounting block 14, the second cylinder 15, the fixing block 16 and the third cylinder 17, when the material tray is transported to the material taking area by the transport cylinder 6, the second cylinder 15 and the third cylinder 17 can play a role in positioning and fixing the material tray, further ensuring that the material tray will not be offset when the product inside the material tray is taken out;

[0033] Example 3:

[0034] See also Figures 1 to 4 In order to fix the material tray placed on the upper end of the mounting plate 7, the upper end of the fixing frame 3 is fixedly installed with a mounting plate 7 for support, the upper end of the mounting plate 7 is fixedly connected with a clamping plate 18 for limiting position, the top of the clamping plate 18 is fixedly connected with a protective cover 19 for positioning, the upper end of the mounting plate 7 is fixedly installed with a side plate 20 for support, and the lower end of the mounting plate 7 is provided with a clamping slot 21 for positioning;

[0035] Through the arrangement of the mounting plate 7, the clamping plate 18, the protective cover 19 and the side plate 20, the middle part of the upper end of the mounting plate 7 is hollowed out. When the staff places the material tray on the upper end of the mounting plate 7, the clamping plate 18 can limit the material tray. At the same time, the protective cover 19 plays a protective role when placing it. The side plate 20 can reinforce the clamping plate 18. Through the arrangement of the card slot 21, the mounting plate 7 can be more stably fixed to the upper end of the fixing frame 3, further ensuring the stability of the mounting plate 7.

[0036] The electrical components mentioned in this article are all connected to an external main controller and 220V AC power, and the main controller can be a conventional known device that performs control such as a computer.

[0037] In the present invention, the working steps of the device are as follows:

[0038] First, the staff puts the full blister tray into the full silo composed of the mounting plate 7, the card plate 18 and the side plate 20, and then the bottom blister tray can be separated by the tray separation mechanism, and the blister tray conveying mechanism can be moved to the front material taking position by the conveying cylinder 6, and the full blister tray can be positioned and fixed by the second cylinder 15 and the third cylinder 17. Then, after the products in the blister tray are taken out, it is moved to the bottom of the full silo. Finally, the empty tray is automatically adjusted to the recovery height by the motor 12 to avoid the empty tray from turning over when entering the recovery area. After the empty tray is recovered, the full tray is connected again and moved to the material taking area, and the cycle is repeated.

[0039] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
