[0088] Referring to Figures 1 to 3 , the embodiment provides an automated system 1000, comprising a first loading and unloading device 100, an assembly line 200 and a transportation device 300 (see Figure 9 ).

[0089] As Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the first feeding and discharging device 100 includes a feeding conveying line 11, a discharging conveying line 12, a first basket separating mechanism 13 and a first basket stacking mechanism 14. The feeding conveying line 11 and the discharging conveying line 12 are arranged in a horizontal direction. The first basket separating mechanism 13 is configured to separate at least one basket 2001 from the basket stack 2000 on the feeding conveying line 11. The first basket stacking mechanism 14 is configured to stack the at least one basket 2001 on another basket stack 2000 on the discharging conveying line 12. A flow line 200 is arranged on one side of the first feeding and discharging device 100. The flow line 200 includes a feeding flow line 210 and a discharging flow line 220. The feeding flow line 210 is connected to the feeding conveying line 11. The discharging flow line 220 is connected to the discharging conveying line 12. Figure 9 As shown, the conveying device 300 includes a vehicle body 310, a feeding conveying line 320 and a discharging conveying line 330. The feeding conveying line 320 and the discharging conveying line 330 are arranged on the vehicle body 310 and distributed in a horizontal direction. The feeding conveying line 320 is configured to convey the basket stack 2000 to the feeding conveying line 11. The discharging conveying line 330 is configured to receive the basket stack 2000 on the discharging conveying line 12.

[0090] The above-described automated system 1000 includes the first feeding and discharging device 100. The first basket separating mechanism 13 can automatically separate the basket 2001 from the basket stack 2000 and convey the basket 2001 to the feeding flow line 210 via the feeding conveying line 11. The discharging conveying line 12 can receive the basket 2001 on the discharging flow line 220 and automatically stack the basket 2001 via the first basket stacking mechanism 14, thereby improving the feeding and discharging efficiency. The feeding conveying line 320 of the conveying device 300 can automatically feed the basket stack 2000. The discharging conveying line 330 can automatically receive the basket stack 2000, thereby enabling the conveying device 300 to convey the basket stack 2000 between the first feeding and discharging device 100 and other devices, thereby improving the conveying efficiency. Therefore, the automated system 1000 improves the feeding, discharging, stacking and conveying efficiency, thereby improving the production efficiency of the automated system 1000.

[0091] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 1, the automated system 1000 includes a second feeding and discharging device 200. The second feeding and discharging device 200 is arranged on one side of the first feeding and discharging device 100. The second feeding and discharging device 200 includes a second basket separating mechanism 23 and a second basket stacking mechanism 24. The second basket separating mechanism 23 is configured to separate at least one basket 2001 from the basket stack 2000 on the feeding conveying line 11. The second basket stacking mechanism 24 is configured to stack the at least one basket 2001 on another basket stack 2000 on the discharging conveying line 12. Figure 5As shown, the first basket separating mechanism 13 comprises a first lifting mechanism 131 and a first supporting mechanism 132, the first supporting mechanism 132 is arranged above the feeding conveying line 11, and is used to support the second last basket 2001 in the stack of baskets 2000, and the first lifting mechanism 131 is drivingly connected to the first supporting mechanism 132 to drive the first supporting mechanism 132 to lift. The first basket separating mechanism 14 comprises a second lifting mechanism 141 and a second supporting mechanism 142, the second supporting mechanism 142 is arranged above the discharging conveying line 12, and is used to support the baskets 2001 on the discharging conveying line 12, and the second lifting mechanism 141 is drivingly connected to the second supporting mechanism 142 to drive the second supporting mechanism 142 to lift. In this way, when feeding, the first supporting mechanism 132 supports the second last basket 2001 in the stack of baskets 2000, and then the first lifting mechanism 131 drives the first supporting mechanism 132 to lift, so as to lift the second last basket 2001 and the baskets 2001 above it, so that there is one basket 2001 on the feeding conveying line 11, and the automatic separation of the baskets 2001 is realized. At this time, the baskets 2001 carried by the feeding conveying line 11 can be conveyed to the feeding assembly line 210 to realize automatic feeding. It can be understood that when separating the baskets 2001, the first supporting mechanism 132 can also support the third last or other position of the baskets 2001 to separate two or more baskets 2001 from the stack of baskets 2000 for automatic feeding. When discharging, the second supporting mechanism 142 supports all the baskets 2001 on the discharging conveying line 12, and then the second lifting mechanism 141 drives the second supporting mechanism 142 to lift, so that the discharging conveying line 12 is empty, so as to receive the baskets 2001 on the discharging assembly line 220. After receiving, the second lifting mechanism 141 drives the second supporting mechanism 142 to descend, so that the single basket 2001 on the discharging conveying line 12 is stacked with other baskets 2001, then the second supporting mechanism 142 is lowered to the lowermost basket 2001 and supports it, and finally all the baskets 2001 are lifted to realize automatic stacking.

[0092] In some embodiments, as Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the automation system 1000 also includes a material transfer device 400, which includes a clamping mechanism 410, a lifting slide 420, and a transverse slide 430. The clamping mechanism 410 is used to clamp the material basket 2001, and the lifting slide 420 is driven to the clamping mechanism 410 to drive the clamping mechanism 410 to lift. The transverse slide 430 extends above the loading line 210 and the unloading line 220 respectively, and the lifting slide 420 is slidably disposed on the transverse slide 430 to drive the clamping mechanism 410 to transfer the material basket 2001 from the loading line 210 to the unloading line 220. Thus, by setting up the transfer device 400, the clamping mechanism 410 can clamp the material basket 2001 on the loading line 210, and then place the material basket 2001 on the unloading line 220 via the lifting slide 420 and the transverse slide 430, thereby realizing the transfer of the material basket 2001 from the loading line 210 to the unloading line 220. Optionally, the clamping mechanism 410 includes two cylinders and two grippers, with the two cylinders respectively connected to the two grippers to drive the two grippers to move closer or further apart, thereby clamping or releasing both ends of the material basket 2001.

[0093] In some embodiments, such as Figures 6 to 8 As shown, the material transfer device 400 also includes a platform 440, a discharge platform 450, a discharge drive mechanism 460, and a transverse movement mechanism 470. The platform 440 is disposed on the discharge assembly line 220 and is vertically opposite to the transverse slide 430. The platform 440 has a channel 440a that extends through the platform 440 along the conveying direction of the discharge assembly line 220 and is used for the passage of the material basket 2001 on the discharge assembly line 220. One end of the discharge platform 450 is rotatably connected to the platform 440 near the first loading / unloading device 100 (see...). Figure 4The lower material driving mechanism 460 is connected to the lower material table 450 to drive the lower material table 450 to rotate relative to the carrier table 440, so that the end of the lower material table 450 away from the carrier table 440 falls on the lower material flow line 220, or the end of the lower material table 450 away from the carrier table 440 is flush with the other end. The horizontal moving mechanism 470 is arranged on the carrier table 440 to push the material basket 2001 on the carrier table 440 to move towards the lower material table 450. In this way, when the material basket 2001 on the upper material flow line 210 is clamped by the clamping mechanism 410 and placed on the carrier table 440, the material basket 2001 on the lower material flow line 220 can be transported to the first upper and lower material equipment 100 through the channel 440a. The material in the material basket 2001 on the carrier table 440 can be taken away for processing by the robot 600. When the material in the material basket 2001 on the carrier table 440 is all taken away, the empty material basket 2001 is horizontally moved from the carrier table 440 to the lower material table 450 by the horizontal moving mechanism 470, and then the end of the lower material table 450 away from the carrier table 440 falls to the lower material flow line 220 by the lower material driving mechanism 460, so that the empty material basket 2001 on the lower material table 450 can flow from the lower material table 450 to the lower material flow line 220, and then be transported to the first upper and lower material equipment 100 by the lower material flow line 220.

[0094] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 2 The automated system 1000 further includes a plurality of laser cutting machines 500 arranged on the side of the lower material flow line 220 away from the upper material flow line 210 to cut marks on the material. In combination with Figure 6 The robot 600 is arranged between the lower material flow line 220 and the laser cutting machine 500 to transfer the material in the material basket 2001 on the carrier table 440 to the laser cutting machine 500. In use, the material basket 2001 on the upper material flow line 210 contains unprocessed material, after the material basket 2001 on the upper material flow line 210 is clamped by the clamping mechanism 410 and placed on the carrier table 440, the robot 600 takes away the unprocessed material, and the empty material basket 2001 flows from the carrier table 440 to the lower material flow line 220 through the lower material table 450.

[0095] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 7 The material transferring device 400 further includes a blocking mechanism 480. The blocking mechanism 480 is arranged on the side of the channel 440a, and the blocking mechanism 480 can move relative to the lower material flow line 220 to block the material basket 2001 in the channel 440a or allow the material basket 2001 in the channel 440a to flow out of the channel 440a. In this way, when the end of the lower material table 450 away from the carrier table 440 needs to fall on the lower material flow line 220, the blocking mechanism 480 can block the material basket 2001 in the channel 440a to avoid collision.

[0096] In use, the transport device 300 delivers 8 material baskets 2001 containing unprocessed materials to the feeding conveying line 11 of the first feeding and discharging device 100, and takes away 8 material baskets 2001 containing processed materials from the discharging conveying line 12 of the first feeding and discharging device 100. In this way, the transport device 300 can transport 16 material baskets 2001 each time, which can be used for 14 minutes of processing. The material baskets 2000 on the feeding conveying line 11 are stacked after being unpacked, and the material baskets 2000 on the discharging conveying line 12 are stacked after being packed. The transfer device 400 transfers the material baskets 2001 containing unprocessed materials on the feeding assembly line 210 to the loading platform 440, and the robot 600 precisely positions the materials after sucking the materials, and the waste materials fall into the hopper through the chute. After the materials in each material basket 2001 are taken, the materials are transferred to the discharging assembly line 220 through the discharging platform 450.

[0097] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 9 The transport device 300 further includes a third lifting mechanism 340 and a fourth lifting mechanism 350. The third lifting mechanism 340 is drivingly connected to the feeding conveying line 320 and is used to drive the feeding conveying line 320 to lift. The fourth lifting mechanism 350 is drivingly connected to the discharging conveying line 330 and is used to drive the discharging conveying line 330 to lift. In this way, the third lifting mechanism 340 is arranged to enable the feeding conveying line 320 to feed materials from different heights, and the fourth lifting mechanism 350 is arranged to enable the discharging conveying line 330 to discharge materials from different heights, thereby improving the versatility of the transport device 300 for different feeding scenarios.

[0099] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 10 The automated system 1000 further includes a first storage platform 700 and a second storage platform 800. The width of the first storage platform 700 is different from the width of the second storage platform 800. In this way, the first storage platform 700 and the second storage platform 800 can be applied to different storage scenarios, for example, can be matched to different spaces or sites. Optionally, the width of the first storage platform 700 is smaller than the width of the second storage platform 800. When the material basket 2001 is placed on the first storage platform 700, the width direction of the material basket 2001 can be parallel to the width direction of the first storage platform 700.
