[0036] Example 1:

[0037] Please refer to Figures 1-8 This embodiment is an automatic marking device 100, which includes an adsorption conveyor line 1, a packaging bag feeding mechanism 2 and a marking printer 3 arranged at the input end of the adsorption conveyor line 1, a packaging bag loading station 10, a marking bag entering mechanism 4, a bag sealing mechanism 5 and a tape applying mechanism 6 arranged in sequence along the adsorption conveyor line 1, a loading and conveying mechanism 7 that sucks and conveys the marking paper 200 from the marking printer 3 to the marking bag entering mechanism 4 and sucks and conveys the packaging bag 300 from the packaging bag feeding mechanism 2 to the packaging bag loading station 10, a connecting conveyor line 8 arranged at the output end of the adsorption conveyor line 1, and a marking conveying and pasting mechanism 9 that takes the packaging bag with the marking paper from the connecting conveyor line 8 and pastes it to a specified position on the outer peripheral surface of the photovoltaic module stacking material.

[0038] The adsorption conveyor line 1 includes a conveyor belt (not shown in the figure) and a suction plate (not shown in the figure) located below the conveyor belt. The conveyor belt is provided with a number of adsorption holes. The channel in the suction plate is connected to the vacuum system. The vacuum system generates negative pressure in the suction plate, and then generates negative pressure on the conveyor belt, thereby realizing adsorption-type conveying of the packaging bags 300 on the adsorption conveyor line 1.

[0039] The bag feeding mechanism 2 includes a first support plate 21, several silo enclosure plates 23 fixed to the first support plate 21 and collectively surrounding a silo 22, a vertically movable lift support plate 24 at the bottom of the silo 22, and a first drive member 25 fixed below the first support plate 21 to drive the vertical movement of the lift support plate 24. Several bags 300 are stacked in the silo 22 and seated on the lift support plate 24. The first drive member 25 drives the topmost bag 300 in the silo 22 to maintain a uniform, set height, facilitating the loading and unloading of the bag by the loading and unloading mechanism 7.

[0040] The mark printer 3 is mainly used to automatically print out the mark paper 200 containing the setting information, and the output mark paper 200 is placed on an output platform, and the loading and transporting mechanism 7 automatically absorbs the mark paper 200 from the output platform. In this embodiment, in order to ensure that the loading and transporting mechanism 7 accurately places the mark paper 200 into the mark bagging mechanism 4, a positioning component 31 for performing secondary positioning of the mark paper 200 is also provided within the transport range of the loading and transporting mechanism 7. In this embodiment, the positioning component 31 is a visual camera. By taking a picture of the mark paper 200 on the loading and transporting mechanism 7 to obtain its position information, it can guide the loading and transporting mechanism 7 to accurately place the mark paper 200. In another embodiment, the positioning component 31 includes a carrying platform and a plurality of correction modules (not shown in the figure) arranged around the carrying platform and correcting the position of the mark paper on the carrying platform.

[0041] On the one hand, the loading and transporting mechanism 7 is used to absorb the mark paper 200 on the output platform of the mark printer 3, and then move it to the positioning component 31, perform secondary positioning on the mark paper 200 through the positioning component 31, and then place the mark paper 200 into the mark bag feeding mechanism 4 to realize automatic loading of the mark paper 200; on the other hand, it is used to absorb a packaging bag 300 from the packaging bag feeding mechanism 2, and then place it on the packaging bag loading station 10 on the adsorption conveyor line 1 to realize automatic loading of the packaging bag 300.

[0042] In this embodiment, the loading and handling mechanism 7 includes a first multi-axis robot 71 and a first suction module 72 disposed at the movable end of the first multi-axis robot 71. Because the paper marking 200 and the packaging bag 300 have different lengths, to accommodate both, the first suction module 72 includes a common suction bar 721, a first suction bar 722 that cooperates with the common suction bar 721 to absorb the paper marking 200, and a second suction bar 723 that cooperates with the common suction bar 721 to absorb the packaging bag 300.

[0043] The marking paper feeding mechanism 4 includes a bag opening module 41, a bag opening spreading module 42 that horizontally opens the entrance of the packaging bag 300 to facilitate the smooth entry of the marking paper 200, a feeding module 43 that carries the marking paper 200 and feeds it into the packaging bag 300, and a first pressing module 44 that presses the marking paper 200 after it is in place in the bag to facilitate the feeding module 43 to be pulled out of the packaging bag 300.

[0044] The bag opening module 41 includes a pair of first bag opening nozzles 411 that suction the bottom of the bag opening of the packaging bag 300, a pair of second bag opening nozzles 412 located above the first bag opening nozzles 411 and used to suction the upper portion of the bag opening of the packaging bag 300, and a first cylinder 413 that drives the pair of second bag opening nozzles 412 up and down. The first bag opening nozzles 411 are embedded in the side of the suction conveyor line 1. The movable end of the first cylinder 413 is provided with a second support plate 414, and the pair of second bag opening nozzles 412 are mounted on the second support plate 414. The packaging bag 300 is transported to the mark bag feeding mechanism 4 along the adsorption conveyor line 1. The open side of the packaging bag 300 is located at the bag opening module 41. The second bag opening suction nozzle 412 drops to a low position. The first bag opening suction nozzle 411 and the second bag opening suction nozzle 412 simultaneously adsorb the bag body on the upper and lower sides of the opening of the packaging bag 300. Then, the first cylinder 413 drives the second bag opening suction nozzle 412 to move upward to open the bag mouth of the packaging bag 300.

[0045] The bag opening spreading module 42 includes a second cylinder 421, a third support plate 422 driven by the second cylinder 421 to move back and forth, a third cylinder 423 fixed on the third support plate 422, and a pair of limiting guide blocks 424 driven by the third cylinder 423 to move closer to or open each other left and right. A C-shaped channel 4241 that passes through the limiting guide block 424 is provided. The two limiting guide blocks 424 are in a close state and extend into the packaging bag, and then open to each other to stretch the bag opening to a set width left and right. The left and right opposite C-shaped channels 4241 constitute a limiting channel for the marking paper 200 to enter the packaging bag 300, connecting the feeding module 43 and the interior of the packaging bag to ensure that the marking paper 200 enters the packaging bag 300 smoothly, and effectively prevent the sharp corners of the marking paper 200 from poking the packaging bag 300, resulting in failure of the marking paper 200 to enter the bag.

[0046] The bag opening module 41 and the feeding module 43 are located on either side of the bag opening module 42. The feeding module 43 includes a second driving member 431 and a feeding plate 432 that is driven by the second driving member 431 to move back and forth. To prevent the marking paper 200 from being damaged when feeding the packaging bag 300, the feeding plate 432 is a thin plate with one end fixed to the movable end of the second driving member 431 and the other end cantilevered to facilitate feeding the marking paper 200 into the packaging bag 300. Due to the thin plate structure and cantilevered position of the feeding plate 432, a support plate 433 is provided below the feeding plate 432 to support the forward and backward movement of the feeding plate 432, ensuring that the front end of the feeding plate 432 can align with the bag opening and extend into the packaging bag. A C-shaped channel 4241 connects the front end of the support plate 433 with the interior space of the packaging bag. When feeding the paper marking paper 200, the feed plate 432 passes through the C-shaped channel 4241 on both sides. Side limit plates 4331 are also provided on the left and right sides of the support plate 433 to limit the left and right positions of the paper marking paper 200 on the feed plate 432. The feed plate 432 is also equipped with a rear limit block 4321 to limit the rear position of the paper marking paper 200, providing a rear-end push force for the paper marking paper 200.

[0047] After the feed plate 432 carries the paper marking 200 and feeds it into the packaging bag 300, it needs to be withdrawn from the packaging bag 300. The first pressing module 44 is primarily used to hold the paper marking 200 down to prevent it from being dragged out. The first pressing module 44 includes a fourth cylinder 441 and a first pressing plate 442 driven up and down by the fourth cylinder 441. The feed plate 432 is provided with a clearance notch 4322 to allow the first pressing plate 442 to clear the way. This allows the first pressing plate 442 to lower to its lowest position, compressing only the paper marking 200 and the packaging bag 300. This allows the feed plate 432 to be withdrawn from the packaging bag 300 without dragging the paper marking 200 out or disturbing the packaging bag 300.

[0048] The bag sealing mechanism 5 comprises a second compression module 51, which compresses the bag after delivery, and a heat-sealing module 52, located adjacent to the suction conveyor line 1. The second compression module 51 comprises a fifth cylinder 511 and a second compression plate 512, which is driven by the fifth cylinder 511 for vertical movement. The second compression plate 512 is sized similarly to the bag 300, with only the opening of the bag 300 exposed. The heat-sealing module 52 comprises a heat-sealing bar 521 positioned below the bag's opening, a compression bar 522 positioned above the heat-sealing bar 521, and a sixth cylinder 523, which drives the compression bar 522 for vertical movement.

[0049] The taping mechanism 6 is primarily used to apply two double-sided tape strips to the outer surfaces of the packaging bag 300, allowing the packaging bag 300 to be subsequently attached to a stack of photovoltaic modules. The taping mechanism 6 comprises an XYZ transfer module 61, a fourth support plate 62 positioned at the movable end of the XYZ transfer module 61, a taping module 63 positioned on the fourth support plate 62, and a third pressing module 64 that compresses one side of the packaging bag during taping.

[0050] In this embodiment, the gluing module 63 includes a feed tray 631, a return tray 632, several guide wheels 633 that guide the tape from the feed tray 631 to the return tray 632, a gluing roller 634 that applies the tape to the packaging bag, a seventh cylinder 635 that drives the gluing roller 634 up and down, and a cutting assembly 636 that cuts the tape to a set length. In other embodiments, the gluing module 63 may also adopt existing structures, and this embodiment is not limited thereto.

[0051] The third pressing module 64 includes an eighth cylinder 641 and a third pressing plate 642 driven by the eighth cylinder 641 to move up and down.

[0052] The connecting conveyor line 8 includes a plurality of parallel and spaced apart conveyor belts 81. The mark handling and pasting mechanism 9 includes a second multi-axis robot 91 and a second adsorption module 92 provided at the movable end of the second multi-axis robot 91. The second adsorption module 92 includes at least two third adsorption strips 921. When taking the packaging bag 300, the third adsorption strip 921 is located in the gap between two adjacent conveyor belts 81 and below the conveying plane of the connecting conveyor line 8. After the packaging bag 300 is delivered to the designated position, the third adsorption strip 921 moves upward a set distance, lifts the packaging bag 300 off the connecting conveyor line 8, and then removes it from the connecting conveyor line 8 and pastes it to a designated position on the outer periphery of the photovoltaic module stacking material, completing the automatic pasting of the mark.

[0053] The present embodiment is an automatic marking device 100, and its working process is as follows: the marking printer 3 automatically prints the marking paper 200 onto the output platform, the loading and conveying mechanism 7 absorbs the marking paper 200 from the conveying platform, and then places it on the feeding plate 432 of the feeding module 43 after secondary positioning; the loading and conveying mechanism 7 then absorbs a packaging bag 300 from the hopper 22 of the packaging bag feeding mechanism 2 and places it on the packaging bag loading station 10 on the adsorption conveyor line 1; the adsorption conveyor line 1 conveys the packaging bag 300 to the marking bag feeding mechanism 4; the bag opening module 41 opens the bag opening of the packaging bag 300 up and down, the bag opening spreading module 42 opens the bag opening of the packaging bag 300 left and right, and the feeding module 43 feeds the marking paper 200 into the packaging bag 300, and the packaging bag 300 is put into the packaging bag 300. A pressing module 44 presses the marking paper 200 and the packaging bag 300, and the feeding plate 432 is pulled out from the packaging bag 300; the packaging bag 300 containing the marking paper 200 moves to the bag sealing mechanism 5, the second pressing module 51 presses the packaging bag 300, and the heat sealing module 52 seals the bag opening of the packaging bag 300; the packaging bag 300 moves to the position of the tape pasting mechanism 6, and the tape pasting module 63 completes the pasting of two tapes on the packaging bag 300 under the drive of the XYZ transfer module 61; the packaging bag pasted with tape moves to the end of the adsorption conveyor line 1 and moves to the connecting conveyor line 8, the mark transporting and pasting mechanism 9 sucks the bottom of the packaging bag, faces the tape side to the outer peripheral surface of the photovoltaic module stacking material, and pastes it to the designated position to complete the mark pasting.
