[0026] The following detailed description provides various embodiments or examples for implementing this utility model. Of course, these are merely embodiments or examples and are not intended to be limiting. Additionally, repeated reference numerals, such as repeated numbers and / or letters, may be used in different embodiments. These repetitions are for the purpose of simple and clear description of this utility model and do not represent a specific relationship between the different embodiments and / or structures discussed.
[0027] like Figures 1 to 5 A vertical wafer sorting machine is shown, comprising: a frame 1, on which a conveyor rail 2 and a first vibration motor 3 for driving the conveyor rail 2 to vibrate are respectively provided; the conveyor rail 2 is divided and arranged with a plurality of conveyor grooves 21 along the same horizontal axis, the conveyor grooves 21 including a horizontal section 22, an inclined section 23 and a vertical section 24 connected in sequence; a connecting platform, which is disposed on the frame 1 and has a first material dropping hole 4 through it for positioning and placing a container; a receiving device, which includes a receiving platform 61 movably disposed on the frame 1 and capable of connecting to the lower end of the vertical section 24, and a fifth drive cylinder 5 for driving the receiving platform 61 to move, the receiving platform 61 having an upper-opening cavity 6, and a second material dropping hole 7 opened on the lower side of the cavity 6; the receiving device includes a receiving platform 61 movably disposed on the frame 1 and capable of connecting to the lower end of the vertical section 24, and a fifth drive cylinder 5 for driving the receiving platform 61 to move, the receiving platform 61 having an upper-opening cavity 6, and a second material dropping hole 7 opened on the lower side of the cavity 6. Platform 61 can be displaced by the fifth drive cylinder, causing the second discharge hole 7 and the first discharge hole 4 to be vertically connected; the first blocking member is disposed on the frame 1 and located between the vertical section 24 and the receiving platform 61, and includes a first limiting plate 8 movably disposed on the frame 1 and a first drive cylinder 9 for displacing the first limiting plate 8; the second blocking member is disposed on the receiving platform 61 and located below the second discharge hole 7, and includes a second limiting plate 10 movably disposed on the receiving platform 61 and a second drive cylinder 11 for displacing the second limiting plate 10; the pressing member is disposed on one side of the receiving platform 61, and includes a push plate 12 movably disposed in the cavity 6 and a third drive cylinder 13 for displacing the push plate 12.
[0028] Specifically, the conveyor track works in conjunction with the first vibrating motor to allow the material to vibrate and be conveyed along the length of the conveyor track. The conveyor track then sequentially connects horizontal, inclined, and vertical sections, allowing the material to be conveyed vertically instead of horizontally. At this time, the second limiting plate in the second blocking component is in a closed state, blocking the second material discharge hole in the cavity of the closed receiving platform. Material falling from the vertical section will then be arranged and stopped sequentially within the cavity, which is only high enough to accommodate one block of material. Simultaneously, the first limiting plate in the first blocking component moves under the influence of the first driving cylinder, isolating and sealing the vertical section from the cavity. Following this, compressed air... The third drive cylinder in the component drives the push plate to move, so that the push plate moves and pushes the multiple block materials arranged in the cavity to be arranged compactly. Then, the fifth drive cylinder drives the receiving platform to move, so that the second discharge hole of the cavity moves to directly above the first discharge hole. At this time, the operator manually places the container with the opening facing upward into the first discharge hole. Then, the second drive cylinder in the second blocking component drives the second limit plate to move, causing the second discharge hole to open. Then, the block materials arranged in the cavity fall neatly into the cavity, realizing the automated material handling and boxing, realizing the sorting and quantitative conveying of sheet or flat materials, reducing the drawbacks of tilting, misalignment, and the need for secondary manual adjustment.
[0029] Furthermore, a material handling rack is movably mounted on the receiving platform 61, and a fourth drive cylinder 14 is provided to drive the material handling rack to move. The displacement direction of the material handling rack is perpendicular to the displacement direction of the push plate 12. The material handling rack includes a connecting plate 15 mounted on the drive shaft of the fourth drive cylinder 14 and several partitions 16 spaced apart on one side of the connecting plate 15. The partitions 16 are arranged one-to-one between adjacent conveying grooves 21, and the partitions 16 can be movably inserted into the cavity 6 as the connecting plate 15 moves. Specifically, through several partitions on the connecting plate, the blocky materials falling from the vertical section of the conveying trough into the cavity can be respectively placed between the partitions. Guided by the adjacent partitions, the blocky materials are effectively kept in a vertical state. Then, the fourth drive cylinder drives the connecting plate to move, so that the partitions move away from the cavity. At the same time, the third drive cylinder in the air compression component drives the push plate to move, thereby effectively preventing the blocky materials in the cavity from tilting due to large gaps, which would affect the push plate in the subsequent pressing component and cause the tilted material to be squeezed and damaged when it is driven and pushed.
[0030] Furthermore, the width of the vertical section 24 of the conveying track 2 is smaller than the width of the horizontal section 22 of the conveying track 2, and the width of the inclined section 23 gradually decreases from the end near the horizontal section 22 to the end near the vertical section 24. The horizontal section is wider to accommodate initially disordered materials, the inclined section gradually narrows to guide the materials to align in a single direction, and the vertical section has the smallest width, forcing the materials to be in an upright state, effectively reducing the risk of material jamming and improving the consistency of arrangement.
[0031] Furthermore, a material box 17 is provided on the frame 1 above the horizontal section 22 of the conveying trough 21. A discharge port 18 is provided on one side of the lower end of the material box 17. A second vibration motor 19 is provided on the frame 1 to drive the material box 17 to vibrate. Thus, the second vibration motor causes the blocky material in the material box to be vibrated and output from the discharge port.
[0032] Furthermore, a baffle plate 20 is placed on the frame 1 above the conveying trough 21 located in the horizontal section 22. The baffle plate 20 and the bottom of the conveying trough 21 form a space that can only accommodate one candy at a time. Thus, the baffle plate allows the block-shaped candies to pass through one by one and be placed in the conveying trough, thereby realizing the individual conveying of the block-shaped candies.
[0033] Furthermore, a position sensor is installed inside the first discharge hole 4. The position sensor is then used to detect whether the container is in position.
[0034] Furthermore, the shape and size of the first discharge hole 4 are the same as those of the candy box. This enables the candy container box to be positioned and placed correctly.
[0035] Based on the accompanying drawings and the foregoing display and description of the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model, those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claims. The scope of protection of this utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
