The third drive mechanism 400 drives the second drive mechanism 300 to move in the second direction within the first preset range, and the second drive mechanism 300 drives the first drive mechanism 200 to move in the second direction within the second preset range, ensuring that the second direction is parallel to the vertical axis direction, which not only enables the clamping mechanism 100 to face each storage position 510 on the storage rack 500, but also achieves the effect of driving the clamping mechanism 100 to move in the second direction within the sum of the first preset range and twice the second preset range, so as to reduce the overall size of the material stack and the transfer device, save installation space, and meet actual needs.

[0057] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the material stacking and transfer device also includes a base 600, and the rotating drive mechanism and the second drive mechanism 300 are both installed on the base 600 to improve the protection of the storage rack 500, the rotating drive mechanism, the clamping mechanism 100, the first drive mechanism 200, the second drive mechanism 300 and the third drive mechanism 400.

[0058] As an alternative, Figure 2As shown, the clamping mechanism 100 includes a first mounting seat 130, a first driving member 110, and two clamping jaws 120 arranged opposite each other in a horizontal direction, wherein the first mounting seat 130 is connected to the output end of the first driving mechanism 200, the first driving member 110 is mounted on the first mounting seat 130, and the two clamping jaws 120 arranged opposite each other are respectively connected to the output end of the first driving member 110. The material is located between the two clamping jaws 120, and the first driving member 110 can drive the two clamping jaws 120 to move toward or away from each other. By arranging the first mounting seat 130 at the output end of the first driving mechanism 200, mounting the first driving member 110 on the first mounting seat 130, and connecting the two clamping jaws 120 to the output end of the first driving member 110, the first driving member 110 drives the two clamping jaws 120 to move toward or away from each other, thereby clamping or loosening the material disposed between the two clamping jaws 120, thereby achieving clamping and fixing the material. It should be noted that in this embodiment, the first driving member 110 is a double-ended cylinder, and the two clamping jaws 120 are respectively fixed to the two output shafts of the double-ended cylinder. The double-ended cylinder drives the two clamping jaws 120 to move toward or away from each other.

In other embodiments, the first driving member 110 can also be another structure capable of synchronously driving the two clamping jaws 120 to move toward or away from each other, and this embodiment is not particularly limited.

[0059] To further enhance the protection of the material, the clamping mechanism 100 further includes an elastic buffer 140, wherein the elastic buffer 140 is respectively fixed to the two opposite end surfaces of the two clamping jaws 120, and the elastic buffer 140 can be clamped between the clamping jaws 120 and the material. By arranging the elastic buffer 140 on the two opposite end surfaces of the two clamping jaws 120, the elastic buffer 140 is clamped between the clamping jaws 120 and the material, which can avoid direct contact between the clamping jaws 120 and the material. The elastic force of the elastic buffer 140 itself is used to convert the rigid contact between the material and the clamping jaws 120 into flexible contact between the elastic buffer 140 and the material, thereby achieving the effect of enhancing the protection of the material. It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the elastic buffer 140 is made of rubber material. Rubber material has good elasticity, toughness, and wear resistance, and has a long service life. In other embodiments, the elastic buffer 140 can also be made of sponge, cotton, or other elastic materials, which is not specifically limited in this embodiment.

[0060] In an alternative embodiment, the first drive mechanism 200 includes a second mounting seat 220 and a second driving member 210, wherein the second mounting seat 220 is connected to the output end of the third drive mechanism 400, the second driving member 210 is mounted on the second mounting seat 220, and the first mounting seat 130 is connected to the output end of the second driving member 210. The second driving member 210 can drive the first mounting seat 130 to move in the first direction. By providing the second mounting seat 220 at the output end of the third drive mechanism 400, mounting the second driving member 210 on the second mounting seat 220, and connecting the first mounting seat 130 to the output end of the second driving member 210, the second driving member 210 drives the first mounting seat 130 to move in the first direction, thereby achieving the effect of driving the two clamping jaws 120 to move in the first direction, so as to facilitate the placement of materials into the storage position 510 or the removal of materials from the storage position 510 in the first direction. It should be noted that in this embodiment, the second drive member 210 is a linear cylinder, the output end of which is connected to the first mounting base 130, and the linear cylinder drives the first mounting base 130 to move in the first direction. The linear cylinder has a simple structure, is responsive, and is easy to assemble and disassemble. In other embodiments, the second drive member 210 may also be a linear motor, a screw-nut structure, or other linear drive structure, which is not specifically limited in this embodiment.

[0061] To further improve the driving accuracy of the second driving member 210 on the first mounting seat 130, either the first mounting seat 130 or the second mounting seat 220 is provided with a first guide rail 131, and the other is provided with a first guide slider 221. The first guide rail 131 extends along a first direction, and the first guide slider 221 slidably engages with the first guide rail 131.

[0062] Combine Figure 1The specific structure of the second drive mechanism 300 will be described. The second drive mechanism 300 includes a third mounting base 320 and a third drive member 310. The third mounting base 320 is mounted on the base 600, the third drive member 310 is mounted on the third mounting base 320, and the third drive mechanism 400 is connected to the output end of the third drive member 310. The third drive member 310 is capable of driving the third drive mechanism 400 to move within a first preset range along the second direction. By mounting the third mounting base 320 on the base 600, mounting the third drive member 310 on the third mounting base 320, and connecting the third drive mechanism 400 to the output end of the third drive member 310, the third drive member 310 drives the third drive mechanism 400 to move within the first preset range along the second direction, thereby driving the clamping jaw 120 and the material clamped by the clamping jaw 120 to move within the first preset range along the second direction.

[0063] Specifically, the third drive member 310 includes two synchronous wheels, a synchronous belt, and a rotary motor. The two synchronous wheels are spaced apart along the second direction, the shortest distance between the two synchronous wheels is within the first preset range along the second direction, the synchronous belt is tangentially engaged with the two synchronous wheels, the third drive mechanism 400 is fixed to the portion of the synchronous belt extending in the second direction, and the output end of the rotary motor is connected to either of the two synchronous wheels, with the rotary motor being used to drive the corresponding synchronous wheel to rotate. By spacing the two synchronous wheels along the second direction, ensuring that the shortest distance between the two synchronous wheels is within the first preset range along the second direction, the synchronous belt is simultaneously tangentially engaged with the two synchronous wheels, the rotary motor drives either of the two synchronous wheels to rotate, and the third drive mechanism 400 is fixed to the portion of the synchronous belt extending in the second direction, the synchronous belt drives the third drive mechanism 400 to move along the second direction within the first preset range.

[0064] In addition, a second guide rail 321 is provided on the third mounting seat 320, and a second guide slider is provided on the third driving mechanism 400. The second guide rail 321 extends along the second direction, and the second guide slider slides with the second guide rail 321 so that when the synchronous belt drives the third driving mechanism 400 to move along the second direction, the second guide slider slides along the second guide rail 321, thereby improving the movement accuracy of the third driving mechanism 400.

[0065] In this embodiment, the third drive mechanism 400 includes a fourth drive member and a fourth mounting seat, the fourth mounting seat is connected to the synchronous belt, the fourth drive member is mounted on the fourth mounting seat, the output end of the fourth drive member is connected to the second mounting seat 220, and the fourth drive member is capable of driving the second mounting seat 220 to move along the second direction within a second preset range. It should be noted that in this embodiment, the fourth drive member is a linear motor. Linear motors have a simple structure, are responsive, and are easy to assemble and disassemble. In other embodiments, the fourth drive member may also be a linear motor, a screw-nut structure, or other linear drive structure, which is not specifically limited in this embodiment.

[0066] As an optional solution, a third guide rail can be set on the fourth mounting seat, and a third guide slider can be set on the second mounting seat 220, so that the third guide rail extends along the second direction, and the third guide slider slides with the third guide rail to improve the movement accuracy of the first drive mechanism 200.

[0067] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the specific numerical value of the first preset range is 800 mm, and the specific numerical value of the second preset range is 200 mm. Furthermore, in this embodiment, the ends of the sum of the first and second preset ranges are aligned with the ends of the storage rack 500 along the second direction, respectively, to ensure that the clamping jaws 120 can directly align with each storage position 510 on the storage rack 500. In other embodiments, the specific numerical values ​​of the first and second preset ranges may be adjusted according to actual needs, and this embodiment does not impose any specific limitations thereon.

[0068] In an optional solution, the material stacking and transfer device further includes a rotation-stopping mechanism, wherein the output end of the rotation-stopping mechanism can abut against the storage rack 500, and the rotation-stopping mechanism is configured to prevent the storage rack 500 from rotating and positioning. By providing the rotation-stopping mechanism, the output end of the rotation-stopping mechanism abuts against the storage rack 500 to prevent the storage rack 500 from rotating and positioning, and when the rotation drive mechanism drives the storage rack 500 to rotate and needs to stop driving the storage rack 500, the rotating storage rack 500 can be prevented from rotating out of position due to its own inertia, thereby ensuring that the storage position 510 on the storage rack 500 is aligned with the clamping jaw 120 along the first direction.

[0069] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the anti-rotation mechanism includes a linear motor and a stop block. The stop block is connected to the output end of the linear motor. The linear motor is mounted on the base 600. The linear motor can drive the stop block to move in the second direction, so that the stop block can move into the storage rack 500 or retract from the storage rack 500 in the second direction, and the stop block abuts the storage rack 500. When the storage rack 500 needs to be stopped and positioned, the linear motor drives the stop block to extend into the storage rack 500 in the second direction, so that the stop block abuts the storage rack 500, thereby stopping and positioning the storage rack 500. The linear motor then drives the stop block to retract from the storage rack 500 in the second direction to ensure that the subsequent rotation drive mechanism can normally drive the storage rack 500.

[0070] In this embodiment, the material stacking and transfer device further includes a control mechanism 700, wherein the control mechanism 700 is respectively communicatively connected to the rotary drive mechanism, the clamping mechanism 100, the first drive mechanism 200, the second drive mechanism 300, and the third drive mechanism 400. The control mechanism 700 can independently control the start and stop of the rotary drive mechanism, the clamping mechanism 100, the first drive mechanism 200, the second drive mechanism 300, and the third drive mechanism 400. By independently controlling the start and stop of the rotary drive mechanism, the clamping mechanism 100, the first drive mechanism 200, the second drive mechanism 300, and the third drive mechanism 400 through the control mechanism 700, when a problem occurs with the rotary drive mechanism, the clamping mechanism 100, the first drive mechanism 200, the second drive mechanism 300, or the third drive mechanism 400, the control mechanism 700 can be used to quickly shut down the material stacking and transfer device, thereby improving safety in use.

[0071] In order to facilitate the understanding of the material stacking and transfer device provided in this embodiment, Figures 1 to 5 Explain the specific working steps of the material stacking and transfer device:

[0072] When it is needed to transfer the external material to the storage positions 510 in the storage rack 500 in sequence, the external handling equipment first transfers the material between the two clamping jaws 120, the first driving member 110 first drives the two clamping jaws 120 to move towards each other to clamp and fix the material between the two clamping jaws 120, then the second driving member 210 drives the two clamping jaws 120 to move in the first direction, so that the two clamping jaws 120 move in the first direction to the corresponding storage position 510 in the direction of approaching the storage position 510, then the first driving member 110 drives the two clamping jaws 120 to move away from each other to release the clamped and fixed material, then the second driving member 210 drives the two clamping jaws 120 to move in the first direction in the direction of moving away from the storage position 510, finally the external handling equipment again transfers the new material between the two clamping jaws 120, and according to the storage position of the next material, the third driving member 310 or the fourth driving member drives the two clamping jaws 120 to move in the second direction, or the rotating driving mechanism drives the storage rack 500 to rotate around the vertical axis, so that another storage position 510 is opposite to the two clamping jaws 120 in the first direction, and the above steps are repeated in sequence until the stacking storage of all the materials is completed.

[0073] It can be understood that the specific steps of transferring the material on the storage rack 500 outward are similar to the specific steps of stacking and storing the material on the storage rack 500, and in order to ensure the brevity of the writing, the specific steps are not repeated again.

[0074] Obviously, the above embodiments of the utility model are only examples for clearly explaining the utility model, and are not the limitation of the embodiments of the utility model.
