Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of PVC hose packaging, and more specifically to a multi-axis transfer type loading and unloading device. Background Art

[0002] A hose reel is a hollow cylindrical product made by winding and stacking unpackaged hoses. Currently, the packaging of finished hose reels in the industry is mainly completed by manual packaging. The packaging process sequence is wrapping with film, adhering adhesive tape with the company logo, labeling, wrapping with film again, and cutting. However, the traditional manual packaging method is labor-intensive, inefficient and costly, and it is difficult to meet the growing market demand and cost control requirements. Therefore, automatic packaging equipment has become a current research hotspot.

[0003] For example, patent number CN 220701428 U discloses an automatic hose reel packaging machine, which includes a wrapping machine for wrapping packaging film around the hose reel, a gluing machine for sticking adhesive tape to the wrapped hose reel, a labeling machine for separating and conveying labels to the surface of the hose reel, a hose rotating machine for supporting and driving the hose reel to rotate, a rack for installing various devices, and an electrical cabinet for controlling the operation of various devices. The gluing machine, wrapping machine, electrical cabinet, and hose rotating machine are all installed on the rack, the labeling machine is located next to the wrapping machine, the hose rotating machine drives the hose reel to rotate, the labeling machine conveys the label to the hose reel, and at the same time, the wrapping machine wraps the hose reel with film and wraps the label inside, and the gluing machine glues to fix the packaging film. The automatic hose reel packaging machine can realize the packaging process of wrapping film, sticking labels, and sticking adhesive tape on the hose reel, which greatly simplifies the packaging process and improves the packaging quality. However, in the prior art, when transferring the hose reel, it is usually necessary to manually carry the hose reel to the packaging device, wait for the hose reel to be packaged, and then manually move it away. The whole process is very time-consuming and labor-intensive. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to overcome the problem that the transportation of hose reels in the prior art is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and to provide an automatic packaging production line for hose reels, which utilizes machines to transfer the hose reels instead of manual transportation, thereby saving time and labor.

[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is:

[0006] A multi-axis loading and unloading device is provided, including a frame, a pipe-taking mechanism, a first sliding module slidably connected to the frame, a second sliding module fixedly connected or slidably connected to the first sliding module, and a third sliding module slidably connected to the second sliding module. The projection of the sliding direction of the first sliding module on the vertical plane and the projection of the sliding direction of the third sliding module on the vertical plane form an angle. The pipe-taking mechanism includes a support member and a first driving member fixedly connected to the third sliding module. One end of the support member is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the first driving member. The support member is used to support the inner wall of the hose reel.

[0007] The utility model discloses a multi-axis loading and unloading device, when loading the hose reel, the operator starts the device, and the first sliding module and the third sliding module cooperate to drive the tube-taking mechanism fixedly connected to the third sliding module to move arbitrarily in the vertical plane. When the tube-taking mechanism reaches the loading position, the first driving member drives the support member to extend into the center of the hose reel, and the tube-taking mechanism will rise. When the support rod contacts the inner wall of the hose reel, the hose reel will be lifted, and then the first sliding module and the third sliding module will be driven to cooperate to transport the hose reel to the packaging device, thereby realizing loading, and then the first driving member drives in reverse to retract the support member, and the hose reel is packaged in the packaging device. When the packaging is completed, the first driving member drives the support member to extend into the center of the hose reel, and with the cooperation of the first sliding module and the third sliding module, the hose reel is transported to the unloading position to realize unloading. This solution utilizes machines instead of manual handling, which saves time and effort.

[0008] Furthermore, the sliding direction of the first sliding module is parallel to the horizontal plane, the second sliding module is slidably connected to the first sliding module and its sliding direction is parallel to the horizontal plane, the sliding direction of the first sliding module is perpendicular to the sliding direction of the second sliding module, and the sliding direction of the second module is perpendicular to the sliding direction of the third sliding module. Since the workstation of the packaging device is open upward, the hose reel needs to be placed in the workstation from top to bottom. In actual operation, the operator activates the device, the first sliding module moves above the hose reel, and the second slide slides horizontally relative to the first slide. When the second slide is positioned, the third sliding module slides downward until the tube removal mechanism reaches the center of the hose reel. The first driving member then drives the support rod to extend, and the tube removal mechanism moves upward until the support member presses against the inner wall of the hose reel to lift it. With the cooperation of the three axes, the hose reel is transferred to the packaging station, where the packaging device performs a series of packaging on the hose reel. When packaging is completed, the three axes cooperate to transport the hose reel to the unloading position, completing the unloading. The first sliding module then returns to the origin and continues to transfer the next hose reel. Through the linkage of the three axes and the cooperation of the tube-taking mechanism, precise transportation of the hose reel is achieved. Compared with the two-axis mechanism, the three-axis device can realize transportation in all directions. Since the second sliding module is slidably connected to the first sliding module, there are more options for the placement of the loading position and the packaging device, and the layout of the entire device is more flexible.

[0009] Furthermore, the support member is slidably connected to the third sliding module, and the first driving member is a linear driving member with a driving direction perpendicular to the sliding direction of the first sliding module. When the support member descends to the same height as the center of the hose reel, the first driving member drives the support member to slide, extending over the hose reel. The third sliding module then rises, providing a vertical upward support force to lift the hose reel. Because the gravity acting on the hose reel is offset by the supporting force provided by the support member, the hose reel is more stable.

[0010] Furthermore, the system includes a clamping mechanism comprising a clamping claw and a second drive member fixedly connected to the third sliding module. The second drive member is used to drive the clamping claw to clamp the two sides of the hose reel. During the loading process, when the third sliding module moves up to the support member to lift the hose reel, the clamping mechanism activates and clamps the two sides of the hose reel, preventing lateral movement and ensuring that the hose reel can be accurately transported to the workstation.

[0011] Furthermore, the third sliding module is equipped with a horizontal plate parallel to the horizontal plane. The second driving member is a bidirectional driving member, fixedly connected to the bottom of the horizontal plate. The clamping jaws include two symmetrically arranged clamping blocks. The two output shafts of the second driving member are respectively fixedly connected to the two clamping blocks. The driving direction of the second driving member is perpendicular to the sliding direction of the first sliding module. When the third sliding module moves up until the support member supports the inner wall of the circular tube reel, the second driving member is activated, and the two clamping blocks move toward each other to contact the two sides of the hose reel, applying a clamping force to the hose reel, preventing it from deflecting and improving stability.

[0012] Furthermore, the clamping block includes a first roller and a connecting block. The connecting block is fixedly connected to one end of the second drive member. The first roller is rotatably connected to the connecting block, and the rotation axis is collinear with the axis of the first roller. During processing, the hose reel needs to rotate along its axis at the workstation to complete film wrapping. Because the rotation of the hose reel drives the first rollers to rotate along their own axes, the two first rollers remain clamped, preventing the hose reel from tilting to the sides during rotation and wrapping, resulting in better packaging. At the same time, the rotation of the first rollers reduces friction and reduces wear on the hose reel caused by friction.

[0013] Furthermore, the rolling axis of the first roller is perpendicular to the horizontal plane, so as to avoid the position of the first roller interfering with the placement of the hose reel in the packaging device.

[0014] Furthermore, the device includes a tube pressing mechanism fixedly connected to the third sliding module and used to press the hose reel against the packaging device. During processing, the hose reel may bounce up and down due to vibration or other factors. The tube pressing mechanism can apply a pressing force to the hose reel to prevent this from happening in the processing station, thereby improving stability and enhancing the packaging effect of the hose reel.

[0015] Furthermore, the tube pressing mechanism includes a pressure member and a third drive member fixedly connected to the third sliding module. The third drive member is a linear drive member with a driving direction perpendicular to the horizontal plane. The pressure member is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the third drive member. When the hose reel is placed in the processing station, the third drive member drives the pressure member downward, applying a downward pressure on the hose reel, securing it in the packaging station, improving stability and packaging quality. When the hose reel is finished packaging, the third drive member reverses its drive, moving the pressure member upward, allowing the hose reel to be removed.

[0016] Furthermore, the pressure member includes a second roller, which is rotatably connected to the third sliding module, with its rotation axis being colinear with the axis of the second roller and parallel to the horizontal plane. During processing, the second roller rotates along its axis as the hose reel rotates, reducing friction and minimizing wear on the hose reel.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0018] 1. The first and third sliding modules cooperate to move the tube-removing mechanism, which can lift the hose reel. The first and second sliding modules then cooperate to transfer the hose reel. This solution uses machines instead of manual handling, saving time and effort.

[0019] 2. The clamping mechanism prevents the hose reel from moving sideways, ensuring that the hose reel can be accurately transported to the workstation. It also provides a limit when the packaging device processes the hose reel to prevent it from tilting, resulting in better accuracy and packaging effect.

[0020] 3. The tube pressing mechanism can exert a downward pressure on the hose reel when it is being packaged, preventing the hose reel from jumping up and down, thereby achieving a better packaging effect. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0028] Example 1

[0029] This embodiment is the first embodiment of a multi-axis transfer loading and unloading device. Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the apparatus comprises a rack 100, a tube removal mechanism 500, a first sliding module 200 slidably connected to the rack 100, a second sliding module 300 slidably connected to the first sliding module 200, and a third sliding module 400 slidably connected to the second sliding module 300. The sliding direction of the first sliding module 200 is parallel to the horizontal plane, the second sliding module 300 is slidably connected to the first sliding module 200 and its sliding direction is parallel to the horizontal plane, the sliding direction of the first sliding module 200 is perpendicular to the sliding direction of the second sliding module 300, and the second sliding module 300 is slidably connected to the first sliding module 200 and its sliding direction is parallel to the horizontal plane. 0's sliding direction is perpendicular to the sliding direction of the third sliding module 400. The tube-taking mechanism 500 includes a support member 520 and a first driving member 510 fixedly connected to the third sliding module 400. In this embodiment, the support member 520 is a support rod, and the first driving member 510 is a cylinder. In addition, it can also be a hydraulic cylinder, an electric push rod, etc. One end of the support member 520 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the first driving member 510. The support member 520 is slidably connected to the third sliding module 400. The driving direction of the first driving member 510 is perpendicular to the sliding direction of the first sliding module 200.

[0030] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows:

[0031] After the first slide module 300 is in position, the third slide module 400 slides downward until the tube-taking mechanism 500 reaches the center of the tube-taking mechanism 800, and then the first driving member 510 drives the supporting member 520 to extend, and then the tube-taking mechanism 500 moves upward until the supporting member 520 presses against the inner wall of the tube-taking mechanism 800, providing a vertical upward supporting force to the tube-taking mechanism 800 to lift it up. Since the gravity on the tube-taking mechanism 800 is offset by the supporting force provided by the supporting member 520, the stability of the tube-taking mechanism 800 is better. With the cooperation of the three axes, the tube-taking mechanism 800 will be transferred to the packaging station to complete the loading, and then The first drive member 510 rotates, the support member 520 moves away from the hose reel 800, and the packaging device 900 performs a series of packaging on the hose reel 800. When the packaging is complete, the first drive member 510 drives the support member 520 to extend into the hose reel 800. The three axes cooperate to transport the hose reel 800 to the unloading position, completing the unloading process. The first sliding module 200 then returns to its starting point and continues to transfer the next hose reel 800. The three-axis linkage and the tube removal mechanism 500 achieve precise transportation of the hose reel 800. Compared to a two-axis mechanism, the three-axis coordination can achieve transportation in all directions. Because the second sliding module 300 is slidably connected to the first sliding module 200, there are more options for the loading position and the placement of the packaging device 900, making the entire device more flexible. The positioning of the support member 520 and the first drive member 510 ensures that the hose reel 800 is more stable and stable on the support member 520.

[0032] Herein, another implementation of the tube removal mechanism 500 is provided. In this implementation, the first driving member 510 is a rotating driving member, one end of the support member 520 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the first driving member 510, and the support member 520 is rotatably connected to the third sliding module 400. When removing the tube, the first driving member 510 will drive the support member 520 to rotate so that the support member 520 presses against the inner wall of the hose reel 800 to support the hose reel 800, thereby transferring the hose reel 800.

[0033] Example 2

[0034] This embodiment is a second embodiment of a multi-axis transfer loading and unloading device. This embodiment is similar to the first embodiment, except that Figure 2 and 3As shown, it also includes a pipe clamping mechanism 600. The third sliding module 400 is provided with a horizontal plate 410 parallel to the horizontal plane. The pipe clamping mechanism 600 includes a clamping claw 610 and a second driving member 620 fixed to the bottom of the horizontal plate 410. In this embodiment, the second driving member 620 is a bidirectional cylinder. The clamping claw 610 includes two symmetrically arranged clamping blocks 611. The clamping block 611 includes a first roller 611a and an L-shaped connecting block 611b. The connecting block 611b is fixedly connected to one end of the second driving member 620. The first roller 611a and the connecting block 611b are fixedly connected. The second driving member 620 is rotatably connected and its rotation axis is colinear with the axis of the first roller 611a. The two output shafts of the second driving member 620 are fixedly connected to the two connecting blocks 611b respectively. The driving direction of the second driving member 620 is perpendicular to the sliding direction of the first sliding module 200. The clamping block 611 includes a first roller 611a and a connecting block 611b. The connecting block 611b is fixedly connected to one end of the second driving member 620. One end of the fixed axis of the first roller 611a is fixedly connected to the connecting block 611b. The rolling axis of the first roller 611a is perpendicular to the horizontal plane.

[0035] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows:

[0036] During the loading process, when the third sliding module 400 moves up to the support member 520 to lift the hose reel 800, the second driving member 620 is started, and the two first rollers 611a move toward each other until they contact the two sides of the hose reel 800, and provide a clamping force to the hose reel 800 to prevent the hose reel 800 from moving in the lateral direction, thereby improving stability and ensuring that the hose reel 800 can be accurately transported to the work station with better accuracy. In the processing link, the hose reel 800 needs to rotate along its axial direction at the work station to achieve film wrapping. Since the rotation of the hose reel 800 will drive the first roller 611a to rotate along its own axis, the two first rollers 611a still remain in a clamped state, so that the hose reel 800 does not tilt to both sides during the rotation and wrapping packaging, thereby improving the packaging effect. At the same time, the rotation of the first roller 611a can reduce friction and reduce the wear of the hose reel 800 caused by friction.

[0037] Example 3

[0038] This embodiment is a third embodiment of a multi-axis transfer loading and unloading device. This embodiment is similar to the first and second embodiments. The difference is that Figure 1-2As shown, it also includes a tube pressing mechanism 700, which is fixedly connected to the third sliding module 400. The tube pressing mechanism 700 is used to press the hose reel 800 onto the packaging device 900. The tube pressing mechanism 700 includes a pressure member 710 and a third driving member 720 fixedly connected to the third sliding module 400. In this embodiment, the third driving member 720 is a cylinder and its driving direction is perpendicular to the horizontal plane. In addition, it can also be a hydraulic cylinder, an electric push rod, etc. The pressure member 710 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the third driving member 720. In this embodiment, the pressure member 710 is a second roller 711, and the second roller 711 is rotatably connected to the third sliding module 400 and its rotation axis is collinear with the axis of the second roller 711, and the rolling axis of the second roller 711 is parallel to the horizontal plane.

[0039] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows:

[0040] During processing, the hose reel 800 may bounce up and down due to vibration or other factors. The tube pressing mechanism 700 can apply a pressing force to the hose reel 800, preventing the hose reel 800 from bouncing up and down in the workstation, improving stability and ensuring better packaging quality of the hose reel 800. The second roller 711 rotates along its axis as the hose reel 800 rotates, reducing friction and minimizing wear on the hose reel 800.
