[0030] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this disclosure will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this disclosure, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this disclosure.
[0031] The specific structure of the loading and unloading device is described below with reference to an embodiment.
[0032] Figure 1 The diagram shown is a structural schematic of the loading and unloading device and boat structure provided in an embodiment of this disclosure. Figure 12 The diagram shown illustrates an application scenario of a coating apparatus provided in an embodiment of this disclosure. Figure 1 and Figure 12 As shown, the loading / unloading device 10 is configured to insert and unload sheet material 3 carried by the boat structure 2. The boat structure 2 includes a first sub-boat structure 21 and a second sub-boat structure 22 connected to each other, and the first sub-boat structure 21 and the second sub-boat structure 22 are arranged along a first direction X1. The loading / unloading device 10 includes one or more first sheet picking / placing mechanisms 100 and one or more second sheet picking / placing mechanisms 200. Each first sheet picking / placing mechanism 100 is located on the side of one or more boat structures 2, and each second sheet picking / placing mechanism 200 is located on the side of one or more boat structures 2. The first sheet picking / placing mechanism 10 is configured to pick up and place sheet material 3 onto the first sub-boat structure 21, and the second sheet picking / placing mechanism 200 is configured to pick up and place sheet material 3 onto the second sub-boat structure 22. This loading / unloading device 10 utilizes two or more sheet picking / placing mechanisms to operate on different areas of the boat structure 2, thereby improving the loading / unloading efficiency of the loading / unloading device 10.
[0033] For example, the first pick-and-place mechanism 100 includes a drive component 110 and a pick-and-place component 120. The drive component 110 may be a linear module, a robotic arm or other type of drive component, which is not specifically limited in this disclosure.
[0034] For example, the structure of the second film pick-and-place mechanism 200 is the same as that of the first film pick-and-place mechanism 100, and will not be described again here.
[0035] For example, the sheet material 3 can be a silicon wafer, a crystal wafer, a glass substrate, etc.
[0036] For example, the first pick-and-place mechanism 100 and the second pick-and-place mechanism 200 may be located on the same side or different sides of the boat structure 2.
[0037] In some embodiments, two or more boat structures 2 are arranged along a fourth direction X4, which intersects with a first direction X1. The loading / unloading device 10 includes two or more first pick-and-place mechanisms 100, arranged along the fourth direction X4 and corresponding to the first sub-boat structure 21. The loading / unloading device 10 also includes two or more second pick-and-place mechanisms 200, arranged along the fourth direction X4 and corresponding to the second sub-boat structure 22. One or more first pick-and-place mechanisms 100 and one or more second pick-and-place mechanisms 200 are staggered. This layout avoids interference between the first and second pick-and-place mechanisms 100 and 200 during operation, and also makes the structure of the loading / unloading device 10 more compact and space-saving.
[0038] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, two boat structures 2 are arranged along a fourth direction X4, which intersects with the first direction X1. The loading and unloading device 10 includes a first piece-picking and unloading mechanism 100 and a second piece-picking and unloading mechanism 200. The two boat structures 2 are located between the first piece-picking and unloading mechanism 100 and the second piece-picking and unloading mechanism 200. The first piece-picking and unloading mechanism 100 is located to the side of the first sub-boat structure 21 of one boat structure 2, and the second piece-picking and unloading mechanism 200 is located to the side of the second sub-boat structure 22 of the other boat structure 2.
[0039] While one boat structure 2 is being loaded and unloaded, the other boat structure 2 is fully loaded with unprocessed sheet material 3, so that the other boat structure 2 can be quickly transported into the reactor 20 to improve the production efficiency of the reactor 20.
[0040] In some embodiments, the loading / unloading device 10 has a first placement space 101, within which the boat structure 2, the first sheet picking / unloading mechanism 100, and the second sheet picking / unloading mechanism 200 are all disposed. The loading / unloading device 10 further includes two or more loading / unloading mechanisms 300 configured to receive and convey sheet material 3. The first placement space 101 has one or more first insertion / unloading positions and one or more second insertion / unloading positions. The first insertion / unloading positions include a first loading position 102 and a first unloading position 104 arranged adjacent to each other. The second insertion / unloading positions include a second loading position 103 and a second unloading position 105 arranged adjacent to each other. Each first sheet picking / unloading mechanism 100 is arranged adjacent to a loading / unloading mechanism 300 at a first insertion / unloading position, so that the loading / unloading mechanism 300 receives and conveys processed sheet material 3 taken out of the first sub-boat structure 21 by the first sheet picking / unloading mechanism 100, or conveys unprocessed sheet material 3 from the loading / unloading mechanism 300 to the first sub-boat structure 21. Each second pick-and-place mechanism 200 is arranged adjacent to a loading / unloading mechanism 300 at a second insertion / removal position, so that the loading / unloading mechanism 300 receives and transports the processed sheet material 3 taken out by the second pick-and-place mechanism 200 from the second sub-boat structure 22, or transports the unprocessed sheet material 3 from the loading / unloading mechanism 300 to the second sub-boat structure 22.
[0041] Specifically, the loading and unloading mechanism 300 receives the processed sheet material 3 taken out of the first sub-boat structure 21 by the first sheet picking mechanism 100 at the first unloading position 104 and transports the processed sheet material 3. Alternatively, the loading and unloading mechanism 300 transports the unprocessed sheet material 3 to the first loading position 102 so that the first sheet picking mechanism 100 can transport the unprocessed sheet material 3 from the first loading position 102 to the first sub-boat structure 21.
[0042] Specifically, the loading and unloading mechanism 300 receives the processed sheet material 3 taken out of the second sub-boat structure 22 by the second sheet picking mechanism 200 at the second unloading position 105 and transports the processed sheet material 3. Alternatively, the loading and unloading mechanism 300 transports the unprocessed sheet material 3 to the second loading position 103 so that the second sheet picking mechanism 200 can transport the unprocessed sheet material 3 from the second loading position 103 to the second sub-boat structure 22.
[0043] The loading and unloading device 10 uses two or more loading and unloading mechanisms 300 to load and unload the first piece loading and unloading mechanism 100 and the second piece loading and unloading mechanism 200 respectively, so as to improve the efficiency of loading and unloading the first piece loading and unloading mechanism 100 and the second piece loading and unloading mechanism 200.
[0044] For example, such as Figure 1As shown, the loading and unloading device 10 includes two loading and unloading mechanisms 300. One loading and unloading mechanism 300 is arranged adjacent to the first piece picking and placing mechanism 100 at the first insertion and unloading position, and the other loading and unloading mechanism 300 is arranged adjacent to the second piece picking and placing mechanism 200 at the second insertion and unloading position.
[0045] For example, the loading / unloading mechanism 300 may include a drive assembly and a pick-up assembly. The drive assembly may be a linear module, a robotic arm, or other types of drive assembly. The loading / unloading mechanism 300 may also include a conveyor belt conveyor, which is not specifically limited in this disclosure.
[0046] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the loading and unloading mechanism 300 includes a unloading mechanism 310 and a loading mechanism 320. The unloading mechanism 310 is configured to receive and transport the processed sheet material 3 from the first sheet pick-and-place mechanism 100 or the second sheet pick-and-place mechanism 200. The loading mechanism 320 is arranged adjacent to the unloading mechanism 310. The loading mechanism 320 is configured to transport the unprocessed sheet material 3 to a first insertion / unloading position, i.e., a first loading position 102, so that the first sheet pick-and-place mechanism 100 can transport the unprocessed sheet material 3 from the first loading position 102 to the first sub-boat structure 21, or the loading mechanism 320 can transport the unprocessed sheet material 3 to a second insertion / unloading position, i.e., a second loading position 103, so that the second sheet pick-and-place mechanism 200 can transport the unprocessed sheet material 3 from the second loading position 103 to the second sub-boat structure 22.
[0047] The loading and unloading device 10 utilizes the unloading mechanism 310 and the loading mechanism 320 to simultaneously unload and load materials respectively, thereby further improving the efficiency of loading and unloading materials for the first pick-and-place mechanism 100 and the second pick-and-place mechanism 200.
[0048] For example, the unloading mechanism 310 of the loading and unloading mechanism 300 receives the processed sheet material 3 conveyed by the first pick-and-place mechanism 100 at the first unloading position 104 and conveys the processed sheet material 3, while the loading mechanism 320 of the loading and unloading mechanism 300 conveys the unprocessed sheet material 3 to the first loading position 102, so that after the first pick-and-place mechanism 100 takes out the processed sheet material 3 from the first sub-boat structure 21, it can place the unprocessed sheet material 3 into the first sub-boat structure 21, thereby replacing the sheet material 3 in the first sub-boat structure 21. Another loading and unloading mechanism 300's unloading mechanism 310 receives the processed sheet material 3 conveyed by the second pick-and-place mechanism 200 at the second unloading position 105, and conveys the processed sheet material 3. The other loading and unloading mechanism 300's loading mechanism 320 conveys the unprocessed sheet material 3 to the second loading position 103, so that after the second pick-and-place mechanism 200 takes out the processed sheet material 3 from the second sub-boat structure 22, it can place the unprocessed sheet material 3 into the second sub-boat structure 22, thereby realizing the replacement of the sheet material 3 in the second sub-boat structure 22.
[0049] For example, such as Figures 3 to 6 As shown, the unloading mechanism 310 includes an unloading receiving assembly 3110, an unloading flow line assembly 3120, and an unloading basket lifting assembly 3130. The unloading receiving assembly 3110 is disposed adjacent to the first placement space 101 and located at a first insertion / removal position or a second insertion / removal position, i.e., a first unloading position 104 or a second unloading position 105. The unloading receiving assembly 3110 is configured to receive and convey the processed sheet material 3 conveyed by the first sheet picking and placing mechanism 100 or the second sheet picking and placing mechanism 200. The unloading flow line assembly 3120 is disposed adjacent to the unloading receiving assembly 3110 and extends along a second direction X2. The unloading flow line assembly 3120 is configured to receive and convey the processed sheet material 3 conveyed by the unloading receiving assembly 3110. The second direction X2 is parallel to the first direction X1. The material unloading basket lifting assembly 3130 is disposed adjacent to the material unloading flow line assembly 3120. The material unloading basket lifting assembly 3130 is configured to receive an empty basket 4 and drive the empty basket 4 to lift and lower, so that the empty basket 4 can receive the processed sheet material 3 conveyed by the material unloading flow line assembly 3120. Exemplarily, the material unloading flow line assembly 3120 is a conveyor belt type conveyor line.
[0050] In some embodiments, such as Figures 3 to 6As shown, the feeding mechanism 320 includes a feeding basket lifting assembly 3210, a feeding flow line assembly 3220, and a feeding receiving assembly 3230. The feeding basket lifting assembly 3210 is arranged adjacent to the unloading basket lifting assembly 3130. The feeding basket lifting assembly 3210 is configured to receive a basket 4 loaded with unprocessed sheet material 3 and drive the basket 4 loaded with unprocessed sheet material 3 to rise and fall. The feeding flow line assembly 3220 is arranged adjacent to the feeding basket lifting assembly 3210 and extends along the second direction X2. It is configured to receive and convey the unprocessed sheet material 3 loaded in the basket 4. The feeding receiving assembly 3230 is arranged adjacent to the feeding flow line assembly 3220 and is located at a first insertion / unloading position or a second insertion / unloading position, i.e., a first loading position 102 or a second loading position 103. The feeding receiving assembly 3230 is configured to receive and convey the unprocessed sheet material 3 conveyed by the feeding flow line assembly 3220. For example, the feeding assembly 3220 is a conveyor belt conveyor.
[0051] In related technologies, a single basket transfer mechanism is typically used to transport baskets, resulting in low transport efficiency. To address this issue, in some embodiments, the loading / unloading device 10 further includes two or more basket transfer mechanisms 400, one or more loading basket buffer mechanisms 500, one or more unloading basket buffer mechanisms 600, two or more loading basket mechanisms 700, and two or more unloading basket mechanisms 800. The two or more basket transfer mechanisms 400 are located on one side of the loading / unloading mechanism 300 and are all capable of moving along a third direction X3, allowing each basket transfer mechanism 400 to dock with the loading / unloading mechanism 300. The third direction X3 intersects with the second direction X2, and the basket transfer mechanism 400 is configured to receive and transport baskets 4. One or more loading basket buffer mechanisms 500 are arranged adjacent to the loading mechanism 320 of the loading / unloading mechanism 300, and are configured to receive and buffer baskets 4 loaded with unprocessed sheet material 3, or empty baskets 4 conveyed by the loading mechanism 320. One or more unloading basket buffer mechanisms 600 are arranged adjacent to the unloading mechanism 310 of the loading / unloading mechanism 300, and are configured to receive and buffer baskets 4 loaded with processed sheet material 3 conveyed by the unloading mechanism 310, or convey empty baskets 4 to the unloading mechanism 310. Two or more basket loading mechanisms 700 are adapted to the loading mechanism 320 of the loading / unloading mechanism 300, and are configured to convey baskets 4 loaded with unprocessed sheet material 3. Two or more basket unloading mechanisms 800 are adapted to the unloading mechanism 310 of the loading / unloading mechanism 300, and are configured to convey baskets 4 loaded with processed sheet material 3.
[0052] The loading and unloading device 10 utilizes two or more basket loading mechanisms 700 to respectively transport baskets 4 to two or more basket transfer mechanisms 400, thereby improving the efficiency of transporting baskets 4 to each basket transfer mechanism 400; utilizes two or more basket transfer mechanisms 400 respectively corresponding to two or more loading and unloading mechanisms 300, thereby improving the efficiency of transporting baskets 4 to the loading and unloading mechanisms 300; utilizes a loading basket buffer mechanism 500 to buffer baskets 4, thereby further improving the efficiency of changing baskets 4 on the loading mechanism 320; utilizes a unloading basket buffer mechanism 600 to buffer baskets 4, thereby further improving the efficiency of changing baskets 4 on the unloading mechanism 310; and utilizes two or more basket unloading mechanisms 800 to respectively receive baskets 4 transported by two or more basket transfer mechanisms 400, thereby improving the efficiency of receiving baskets 4 on each basket transfer mechanism 400.
[0053] For example, such as Figure 1 and Figure 7 As shown, the loading and unloading device 10 also includes two basket transfer mechanisms 400, two loading basket buffer mechanisms 500, two unloading basket buffer mechanisms 600, two basket loading mechanisms 700, and two basket unloading mechanisms 800. The two loading basket buffer mechanisms 500 can respectively dock with the loading basket lifting components 3210 of the two loading mechanisms 320. The two unloading basket buffer mechanisms 600 can respectively dock with the unloading basket lifting components 3130 of the two unloading mechanisms 310. The two basket transfer mechanisms 400 can respectively dock with the loading basket buffer mechanisms 500 and the unloading basket buffer mechanisms 600, and can also respectively dock with the basket loading mechanisms 700 and the basket unloading mechanisms 800.
[0054] Exemplary examples show that the drive method of the basket transfer mechanism 400 can be a linear module drive, a gear and rack drive, or a lead screw drive; this disclosure does not impose specific limitations. Exemplary examples show that the loading basket buffer mechanism 500 is a conveyor belt transfer line. Exemplary examples show that the unloading basket buffer mechanism 600 is a conveyor belt transfer line. Exemplary examples show that the basket loading mechanism 700 is a conveyor belt transfer line. Exemplary examples show that the basket unloading mechanism 800 is a conveyor belt transfer line.
[0055] For example, when the flower basket transfer mechanism 400 is connected to the loading flower basket buffer mechanism 500, the flower basket transfer mechanism 400 can transport the flower basket 4 loaded with unprocessed sheet material 3 to the loading flower basket lifting assembly 3210, and can receive the empty flower basket 4 transported by the loading flower basket lifting assembly 3210. The flower basket transfer mechanism 400 can also move along the third direction X3 to connect with the unloading flower basket buffer mechanism 600, transport the empty flower basket 4 to the unloading flower basket lifting assembly 3130, and can receive the flower basket 4 loaded with processed sheet material 3 transported by the unloading flower basket lifting assembly 3130.
[0056] For example, the loading basket buffer mechanism 500 is located between the loading mechanism 320 and the basket transfer mechanism 400, and is configured to receive and buffer the basket 4 loaded with unprocessed sheet material 3 conveyed by the basket transfer mechanism 400, and is capable of conveying the basket 4 to the loading basket lifting assembly 3210 of the loading mechanism 320. Alternatively, the loading basket buffer mechanism 500 receives and buffers the empty basket 4 conveyed by the loading basket lifting assembly 3210 of the loading mechanism 320, and is capable of conveying the empty basket 4 to the basket transfer mechanism 400.
[0057] For example, the feeding basket buffer mechanism 600 is located between the feeding mechanism 310 and the feeding basket transfer mechanism 400, and is configured to receive and buffer the feeding basket 4 loaded with processed sheet material 3 conveyed by the feeding basket lifting assembly 3130 of the feeding mechanism 310, and is capable of conveying the feeding basket 4 to the feeding basket transfer mechanism 400. Alternatively, the feeding basket buffer mechanism 600 receives and buffers the empty feeding basket 4 conveyed by the feeding basket transfer mechanism 400, and is capable of conveying the empty feeding basket 4 to the feeding basket lifting assembly 3130 of the feeding mechanism 310.
[0058] For example, the flower basket loading mechanism 700 is arranged adjacent to the flower basket transfer mechanism 400. Each flower basket transfer mechanism 400 is capable of moving along a third direction X3 to dock with the flower basket loading mechanism 700 so that the flower basket loading mechanism 700 can transport the flower basket 4 loaded with unprocessed sheet material 3 to the flower basket transfer mechanism 400.
[0059] For example, the flower basket feeding mechanism 800 is arranged adjacent to the flower basket transfer mechanism 400. Each flower basket transfer mechanism 400 is capable of moving along a third direction X3 to dock with the flower basket feeding mechanism 800 so that the flower basket feeding mechanism 800 can receive and transport the flower basket 4 loaded with the processed sheet material 3 transported by the flower basket transfer mechanism 400.
[0060] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 , Figure 8 and Figure 9As shown, the loading and unloading device 10 also includes one or more boat receiving mechanisms 900, a connecting mechanism 1000, and one or more boat positioning mechanisms 1100. The boat receiving mechanism 900 is configured to receive the boat structure 2 and transport it into the first placement space 101. The connecting mechanism 1000 is movable along the fifth direction X5 and docks with the boat receiving mechanism 900. The connecting mechanism 1000 is configured to receive and transport the boat structure 2 transported by the boat receiving mechanism 900, wherein the fifth direction X5 intersects with the first direction X1. The boat positioning mechanism 1100 is configured to correspond one-to-one with the boat receiving mechanism 900 and to position the boat structure 2 placed in the first placement space 101, so that the first sheet picking mechanism 100 and the second sheet picking mechanism 200 can accurately pick up and place the sheet material 3 into the boat structure 2.
[0061] For example, the boat receiving mechanism 900 is located in the first placement space 101, the boat positioning mechanism 1100 is located in the first placement space 101, and the docking mechanism 1000 is located on the side of the first placement space 101 away from the loading and unloading mechanism 300.
[0062] For example, the first placement space 101 can hold two boat structures 2, two boat receiving mechanisms 900 respectively receive and transport the two boat structures 2, and two boat positioning mechanisms 1100 respectively position the two boat structures 2 in the first placement space 101. Two docking mechanisms 1000 can respectively dock with the two boat receiving mechanisms 900. Utilizing the two docking mechanisms 1000 to receive and transport the boat structures 2 improves the transport efficiency of the boat structures 2.
[0063] For example, both the boat receiving mechanism 900 and the docking mechanism 1000 are conveyor belt transfer lines.
[0064] The driving method for the movement of the connecting mechanism 1000 along the fifth direction X5 can be a linear module driving method, a gear and rack meshing driving method, or a lead screw driving method; this disclosure does not make any specific limitations.
[0065] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 , Figure 6 , Figure 10 and Figure 11As shown, the loading and unloading device 10 also includes two or more detection mechanisms 1200, two or more transverse movement mechanisms 1300, one or more rejection mechanisms 1400, and one or more rejection basket unloading mechanisms 1500. The two or more detection mechanisms 1200 are respectively arranged adjacent to the two or more loading and unloading mechanisms 300. The detection mechanisms 1200 are configured to perform quality inspection on the processed sheet material 3 conveyed by the unloading flow assembly 3120 or the unprocessed sheet material 3 conveyed by the loading flow assembly 3220 to determine qualified and unqualified sheet material 3. The unloading flow assembly 3120 is further configured to convey qualified processed sheet material 3, and the loading flow assembly 3220 is further configured to convey qualified unprocessed sheet material 3. Two or more transverse movement mechanisms 1300 are respectively arranged adjacent to two or more loading / unloading mechanisms 300 and extend along the sixth direction X6. The transverse movement mechanism 1300 is configured to receive and convey the unqualified sheet material 3 conveyed by the loading flow assembly 3220 and the unloading flow assembly 3120, wherein the sixth direction X6 intersects with the second direction X2. One or more rejection mechanisms 1400 are located between the two or more loading / unloading mechanisms 300 and are configured to receive and convey the unqualified sheet material 3 conveyed by the transverse movement mechanism 1300. One or more rejection basket unloading mechanisms 1500 are adapted to the rejection mechanism 1400 and are configured to receive and convey baskets 4 loaded with unqualified sheet material 3.
[0066] The flower basket transfer mechanism 400 can move along the third direction X3 to dock with the rejection mechanism 1400 and receive the flower basket 4 loaded with unqualified sheet material 3 conveyed by the rejection mechanism 1400. The flower basket transfer mechanism 400 can also move along the third direction X3 to dock with the rejection flower basket unloading mechanism 1500, so that the rejection flower basket unloading mechanism 1500 can receive the flower basket 4 loaded with unqualified sheet material 3 conveyed by the flower basket transfer mechanism 400.
[0067] For example, the testing agency 1200 can use a photographic testing method to test the quality of the sheet material 3.
[0068] For example, the transverse mechanism 1300 includes a conveyor belt, a linear module or other type of drive structure and a gripping structure connected to the drive structure. The gripping structure grips the sheet material 3 and the drive structure drives the gripping structure to move along the sixth direction X6, so as to convey the sheet material 3 to the rejection mechanism 1400.
[0069] For example, the basket feeding mechanism 1500 is a conveyor belt conveyor.
[0070] In some embodiments, the rejection mechanism 1400 includes a rejection streamline assembly 1410, a rejection basket lifting assembly 1420, a rejection basket buffering mechanism 1430, and two or more material boxes 1440. The rejection streamline assembly 1410 extends along a seventh direction X7 and is configured to receive and convey non-conforming sheet material 3 conveyed by the traverse mechanism 1300, wherein the seventh direction X7 intersects with the sixth direction X6. The rejection basket lifting assembly 1420 is disposed adjacent to the rejection streamline assembly 1410 and is configured to receive an empty basket 4 and drive the empty basket 4 to rise and fall so that the empty basket 4 can receive the non-conforming sheet material 3 conveyed by the rejection streamline assembly 1410. The rejection basket buffering mechanism 1430 is disposed adjacent to the rejection basket lifting assembly 1420 and is configured to receive and buffer the basket 4 containing the non-conforming sheet material 3 conveyed by the rejection basket lifting assembly 1420. The material box 1440 is arranged adjacent to the transverse mechanism 1300. The material box 1440 is configured to receive the unqualified sheet material 3 conveyed by the transverse mechanism 1300 and temporarily store the unqualified sheet material 3.
[0071] For example, the removal streamline assembly 1410 is a conveyor belt conveyor.
[0072] For example, the third direction X3, the fourth direction X4, the fifth direction X5 and the sixth direction X6 are all perpendicular to the second direction X2, and the seventh direction X7 is parallel to the second direction X2, so as to ensure the shortest conveying route and the highest conveying efficiency of the loading and unloading device 10, while ensuring the aesthetic appearance and neatness of the loading and unloading device 10.
[0073] For example, such as Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the loading and unloading mechanism 300 also includes a sheet pushing mechanism 330, a sheet buffer mechanism 340, and a sheet straightening mechanism 350. The sheet pushing mechanism 330, sheet buffer mechanism 340, and sheet straightening mechanism 350 are respectively arranged adjacent to the unloading flow line assembly 3120 and the loading flow line assembly 3220. The sheet pushing mechanism 330 is configured to push the sheet material 3 loaded in the basket 4 to align. The sheet straightening mechanism 350 is configured to straighten the sheet material 3 conveyed by the unloading flow line assembly 3120 and the loading flow line assembly 3220 to prevent the position of the sheet material 3 from shifting due to vibration during the conveying process. The sheet buffer mechanism 340 is configured to buffer the sheet material 3 conveyed by the unloading flow line assembly 3120 and the loading flow line assembly 3220 to await the replacement of the basket 4 on the unloading basket lifting assembly 3130 and the loading basket lifting assembly 3210.
[0074] For example, the specific loading and unloading process of the loading and unloading device 10 is as follows:
[0075] Material feeding process: The boat structure 2 carrying the processed sheet material 3 exits the reactor 20. The docking mechanism 1000 receives the boat structure 2 and moves along the fifth direction X5 to dock with the boat receiving mechanism 900. The boat receiving mechanism 900 receives the boat structure 2 carrying the processed sheet material 3 conveyed by the docking mechanism 1000 and conveys the boat structure 2 carrying the processed sheet material 3 into the first placement space 101. The boat positioning mechanism 1100 positions the boat structure 2 carrying the processed sheet material 3. The first sheet material picking and placing mechanism 100 and the second sheet material picking and placing mechanism 200 respectively take out the processed sheet material 3 from the first sub-boat structure 21 and the second sub-boat structure 22 and convey them to the two feeding and receiving assemblies 3110 respectively. The unloading conveyor assembly 3120 receives the processed sheet material 3 conveyed by the unloading receiving assembly 3110 and conveys the processed sheet material 3 to the unloading basket lifting assembly 3130. The unloading basket lifting assembly 3130 lifts and lowers so that the empty basket 4 on the unloading basket lifting assembly 3130 receives the processed sheet material 3. The unloading basket lifting assembly 3130 conveys the basket 4 loaded with the processed sheet material 3 to the unloading basket buffer mechanism 600, and the unloading basket buffer mechanism 600 conveys the basket 4 loaded with the processed sheet material 3 to the basket unloading mechanism 800.
[0076] Loading process: The basket 4 loaded with unprocessed sheet material 3 is sequentially conveyed by two basket loading mechanisms 700 to two basket transfer mechanisms 400, two basket buffer mechanisms 500, and two basket lifting assemblies 3210. The basket lifting assembly 3210 drives the basket 4 loaded with unprocessed sheet material 3 to rise and fall, so that the loading flow assembly 3220 receives the unprocessed sheet material 3 in the basket 4 and conveys the unprocessed sheet material 3 to the loading receiving assembly 3230, where multiple unprocessed sheet materials 3 are stacked. The first sheet picking and placing mechanism 100 and the second sheet picking and placing mechanism 200 respectively remove the stacked sheet material 3 from the two loading receiving assemblies 3230 and place it in the first sub-boat structure 21 and the second sub-boat structure 22.
[0077] The aforementioned unloading and loading processes replace the sheet material within the boat structure 2, replacing the processed sheet material 3 with unprocessed sheet material 3. Subsequently, the boat positioning mechanism 1100 cancels the positioning of the boat structure 2, and the boat receiving mechanism 900 transports the boat structure 3 out of the first placement space 101. Simultaneously, the connecting mechanism 1000 receives the boat structure 2 carrying the unprocessed sheet material 3 and moves it along the fifth direction X5 to transport it to a position close to the reactor 20, allowing it to be transported into the reactor 20 for processing.
