Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of warehousing and logistics technology, and specifically to an automatic palletizing device. Background Technology

[0002] In processing workshops, goods packaged in boxes typically require palletizing to improve space utilization and facilitate storage and subsequent transfer. To reduce manpower requirements, existing automated production lines are usually equipped with automatic palletizing devices. These devices are generally fixed near the conveyor belt exit, receiving goods from the conveyor belt and arranging and stacking them according to certain rules. The drawback of this type of automatic palletizing device is that it can only stack goods in fixed positions, its purpose is relatively fixed, and it cannot meet some more flexible palletizing needs.

[0003] Patent application CN202311270204.2 discloses a cargo clamping and conveying device for warehousing and logistics, comprising: a clamping component and a conveying component. The clamping component is mounted on the conveying component and is used to clamp cargo. The conveying component is used to transport the cargo clamped by the clamping component. A controller controls the clamping mechanism to squeeze inward to clamp the cargo. When the cargo is stable under the clamping action of the clamping mechanism, the conveying mechanism drives the clamping mechanism to move towards the warehousing conveyor belt, and the clamping mechanism drives the cargo to move. When the conveying mechanism moves to the warehousing conveyor belt, the clamping mechanism descends, allowing the cargo to be transported to the warehouse for storage via the conveyor belt. In the above technical solution, by setting different paths through the control program, the cargo clamping and conveying device can transfer cargo to different positions, making it more flexible and able to meet various palletizing needs. However, after clamping the cargo, the device usually needs to turn and move to allow the cargo to be stacked smoothly. The turning step has certain requirements for space and will affect the palletizing efficiency. Utility Model Content

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model. Example

[0022] Reference Figure 1 This utility model provides an automatic palletizing device, which includes a movable base 1, a conveying mechanism 2 connected to the movable base and arranged in the x-direction, a sorting mechanism 3 connected to the downstream of the conveying mechanism and arranged in the y-direction, and two palletizing mechanisms arranged at both ends of the sorting mechanism in the y-direction direction.

[0023] The mobile base 1 includes a mounting base 12 and a set of mobile wheels 11 disposed on the lower side of the mounting base. The set of mobile wheels includes casters and corresponding drive motors, enabling the device to move in multiple directions.

[0024] The conveying mechanism 2 includes a conveying base 21 disposed in the middle of the mounting base and two limiting baffles 22 disposed on both sides of the conveying base. The conveying base is formed by a conveyor belt and is used to move the goods between the two sides of the device in the x direction.

[0025] The sorting mechanism 3 is located downstream of the conveying base. The sorting mechanism has a sorting base 31, which has a bidirectional conveying function, used to move goods to both sides in the y-direction. The sorting base can be formed by a belt, chain, or conveyor roller. Taking the conveyor roller as an example, in the first embodiment, the sorting base moves synchronously as a whole. In the first working state, the roller rotates in the first direction, transferring the goods to the stacking mechanism on the first side. In the second working state, the roller rotates in the second direction, transferring the goods to the stacking mechanism on the second side. In the second embodiment, the sorting base... The mechanism is divided into a first roller that can rotate in a first direction and a second roller that can rotate in a second direction. In a first working state, the first roller operates and the second roller stops, transferring the goods to the palletizing mechanism on the first side. In a second working state, the first roller stops and the second roller operates, transferring the goods to the palletizing mechanism on the second side. In the second embodiment, the roller closest to the first palletizing mechanism should be the first roller, and the roller closest to the second palletizing mechanism should be the second roller. A first baffle 32 for intercepting goods is provided on the side of the distribution mechanism away from the conveying base.

[0026] The palletizing mechanism includes a receiving base 4, a lifting assembly 5 for controlling the z-axis movement of the receiving base, a forward extension assembly 6 for controlling the x-axis movement of the receiving base, and a pushing assembly 7 positioned on the upper side of the receiving base. The receiving base 4 includes several guide rollers 41 with their axis along the y-axis. A second baffle 42 for intercepting goods is provided at the end of the receiving base away from the sorting base. A distance sensor 43 is provided on the lower side of the receiving base. The receiving base also includes an extension frame 44, which includes support rods positioned between adjacent conveyor rollers of the sorting mechanism. When the receiving base is raised, the support rods lift the goods corresponding to the position on the sorting base. The goods are gradually arranged before palletizing, so that they occupy the entire receiving base and half of the sorting base. Two palletizers... When the two stacked goods are stacked separately, they can fit together, resulting in better stacking effect. The lifting assembly 5 includes a lifting guide 51, a lifting chain 52 arranged in the z-direction, and a first motor connected to the lifting chain. The receiving base 4 is slidably engaged with the lifting guide and connected to the lifting chain. The forward extension assembly 6 includes a forward extension guide 61, a forward extension screw 61 arranged in the x-direction, and a second motor connected to the forward extension screw. The lower end of the lifting guide 51 is slidably engaged with the forward extension guide and connected to the forward extension screw.

The pushing power component includes a power cylinder, a telescopic frame connected to the power cylinder, and a mounting plate connected to the end of the telescopic frame. The push plate is fixedly connected to the mounting plate.

[0027] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: Goods are placed on the conveying base from the first side of the device. The conveying base transfers the goods to the sorting mechanism located on the second side of the device, and then the sorting mechanism transfers them to the palletizing mechanism for arrangement. The palletizing mechanism can stack the arranged goods. During the palletizing process, the forward extension component and the lifting component drive the receiving base and the goods to move. Then, the pushing component pushes the goods away from the receiving base, allowing the goods to be stacked at a designated location. Since there is a palletizing mechanism at each end of the sorting mechanism, the sorting mechanism can adjust its own direction of movement. First, it transfers the goods to the first palletizing mechanism in the first direction of movement. After the first palletizing mechanism is full of goods, it transfers the goods to the second palletizing mechanism in the second direction of movement. The two palletizing mechanisms work alternately, enabling the device to continuously receive goods and improve palletizing efficiency.

[0028] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
