[0006] Furthermore, the base is fixedly connected to the moving platform of the feeding linear module, the bidirectional slide is fixedly connected to the base, and the two positioning forks are respectively fixedly connected to the two moving platforms of the bidirectional slide.

[0007] Furthermore, the positioning fork has multiple rectangular slots, and these slots are arranged in a linear array on the positioning fork.

[0017] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of this utility model.

[0018] refer to Figures 1-4 The automatic dispensing and unloading mechanism for open paper tubes shown includes a feeding linear module 1 and a three-axis moving module 2. A lifting cylinder 3 and a material loading assembly are fixedly connected to the moving platform of the feeding linear module 1. A pallet 301 is fixedly connected to the slide of the lifting cylinder 3. The material loading assembly includes a base 401, a bidirectional slide 402, and positioning forks 403. There are two positioning forks 403. The pallet 301 is located below the two positioning forks 403. A rotary motor 201 is fixedly connected to the moving platform of the three-axis moving module 2. A gripper cylinder 202 and a misalignment cylinder 203 are fixedly connected to the rotating platform of the rotary motor 201. A dispensing gun 204 is fixedly connected to the slide of the misalignment cylinder 203.

[0019] The base 401 is fixedly connected to the moving platform of the feeding linear module 1, and the bidirectional slide 402 is fixedly connected to the base 401. The bidirectional slide 402 can adjust the distance between the two positioning forks 403, and the two positioning forks 403 are respectively fixedly connected to the two moving platforms of the bidirectional slide 402.

[0020] The positioning fork 403 has multiple rectangular slots for positioning and placing paper tubes, and the multiple rectangular slots are distributed in a linear array on the positioning fork 403.

[0021] Straight rods 205 are fixedly connected to the two grippers of the gripper cylinder 202, and each straight rod 205 is fitted with a rubber sleeve 206. The rubber sleeves 206 can prevent surface damage to the paper tube.

[0022] The rubber sleeve 206 has anti-slip textures, which can increase the friction when clamping the paper tube and prevent the material from slipping off.

[0023] A detection camera 5 is fixedly connected to the moving platform of the three-axis moving module 2. The detection camera is used to detect whether the paper tube has end deformation.

[0024] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: In use, firstly, the piston rod of the lifting cylinder 3 is extended according to the length of the paper tube, thereby adjusting the distance between the support plate 301 and the positioning fork 403. Then, based on the maximum diameter of the paper tube's cross-section, the two positioning forks 403 are simultaneously moved closer or further apart by the bidirectional slide table 402 to adjust the distance. After adjustment, the paper tube is placed on the support plate 301 along the positioning fork 403. Next, the three-axis moving module 2 and the misalignment cylinder 203 drive the glue gun to apply glue to the end of the paper tube (before glue application, the detection camera 5 can detect whether there is a deformed paper tube; deformed paper tubes are removed and unloaded). After glue application is completed, the piston rod of the misalignment cylinder 203 retracts, and the three-axis moving module 2 drives the gripper cylinder 202 to grip and unload the glued paper tube.

[0025] The above embodiments are used to further illustrate the present invention, but do not limit the present invention to these specific embodiments. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be understood as being within the protection scope of the present invention.
