Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of disc disassembly machine technology, and in particular to an integrated disc disassembly and stacking machine. Background Technology

[0002] When palletizing items, pallets are needed as a base. In traditional production lines, pallets are placed manually, which is labor-intensive and slows down over time. This time-consuming and labor-intensive method is unsuitable for palletizing production lines. Some depalletizing machines can automatically depalletize, but this is limited to depalletizing and has a single function that needs improvement.

[0003] Therefore, in view of the shortcomings of the above solution in actual production and implementation, it has been modified and improved. At the same time, in the spirit and concept of seeking the best, with the assistance of professional knowledge and experience, and after many ingenious ideas and experiments, we have specially provided a pallet stacking and destacking machine to solve the problem of high labor intensity, time and labor cost of manually placing pallets during palletizing. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an integrated pallet stacking and depalletizing machine to solve the problem of high labor intensity, time and labor cost of manually placing pallets during palletizing.

[0005] The technical solution of this utility model is implemented as follows:

[0006] The integrated tray stacking and dismantling machine includes a support frame and a tray clamping and lifting mechanism. The support frame includes a side frame, a rear frame, and a top plate. The left and right sides of the rear frame are each fixedly connected to a side frame. The top plate is fixed to the top of the side frame and the rear frame. The bottom of the rear frame is provided with a material feeding channel.

[0007] The rear shelf is connected to a rear pallet limiting frame, and the inner side of the side shelf is connected to a side pallet limiting frame.

[0008] The rear frame is provided with a drive device and two parallel longitudinal guide rails, and the bottom of the drive device is provided with a ball screw that cooperates with it.

[0009] The pallet clamping and lifting mechanism includes a mounting frame and two arm connectors. Two fixing plates are mounted on the back of the mounting frame, and these plates are slidably connected to two longitudinal guide rails via longitudinal sliding sliders. Two parallel transverse guide rails are mounted on the mounting frame, and the two arm connectors are slidably connected to these guide rails via transverse sliding sliders. Each arm connector is connected to a rack. A gear is located in the middle of the frame, meshing with the two racks. A clamping cylinder is mounted on the mounting frame, and its piston rod is connected to one of the arm connectors. A screw nut that mates with a ball screw is mounted on the mounting frame. The arm connectors are connected to pallet frame arms.

[0010] The drive unit here is a servo motor with a speed reducer.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment, a lead screw nut fixing block is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting frame, and the lead screw nut fixing block is used to fix the lead screw nut.

[0012] In a preferred embodiment, a back connecting plate and a lead screw bearing fixing seat are provided on the rear frame surface. The drive device is fixed to the back connecting plate by a motor fixing seat. The top and bottom of the ball screw are fixed to the back connecting plate and the bottom of the rear frame surface by lead screw bearing fixing seats, respectively. A coupling is provided between the drive device and the ball screw.

[0013] In a preferred embodiment, the frame is a horizontally placed rectangular frame, and a limiting wheel for limiting the rack is provided at the top and bottom of the rectangular frame, with the two limiting wheels located above and below the gear, respectively.

[0014] In a preferred embodiment, the pallet rack arm includes two mutually perpendicular and fixedly connected arm beams. The vertical arm beam is fixedly connected to the arm connector, and the inner side of the horizontal arm beam is provided with a retaining beam. The side of the pallet has a rectangular concave gap, into which the retaining beam is inserted. The pull beam matches the gap on the side of the pallet.

[0015] When using this solution, it needs to be used in conjunction with a roller conveyor. This solution is installed above the end of the roller conveyor, and the roller conveyor passes through the material feeding channel.

[0016] Dismantling process: A forklift loads a stack of pallets into the dismantling and stacking machine and places them on the roller conveyor at the bottom of the machine. The clamping cylinder extends, the pallet frame arms open, and the drive unit controls the ball screw to move the pallet clamping lifting mechanism to the position of the second-to-last pallet. The clamping cylinder tightens, and the two pallet frame arms simultaneously move inward. The clamping beams insert into the gaps on the left and right sides of the bottom of the second-to-last pallet, and the pallet frame arms lift the pallet. Therefore, the second-to-last pallet and the entire stack of pallets above it are also lifted. The last pallet is separated from the stack, the roller conveyor starts, and the last pallet is conveyed out through the discharge channel, completing the automatic dismantling and delivery.

[0017] This process involves unloading material from one pallet, while the remaining pallets are processed in a loop.

[0018] The stacking and unstacking processes are the opposite of the stacking and unstacking processes, which is easy to understand. By repeating the process, a stack of pallets can be produced, eliminating the need for manual handling and stacking, saving time and effort. It can even eliminate the need for forklifts to unload materials. Manuals only need to place multiple pallets in sequence. Alternatively, after stacking, a forklift can be used to remove the stack of pallets and place them into other stacking and unstacking machines.

[0019] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0020] This solution enables automated pallet unpacking, which is very convenient to use with roller conveyors, reducing manual operations and saving time and effort. It solves the problem of high labor intensity and time-consuming manual pallet placement during palletizing. Furthermore, this solution can also be used in reverse—for pallet stacking. The unpacking and stacking functions are integrated into one, enriching the functionality and improving practicality. Attached Figure Description

For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or a connection through an intermediate medium, or it can be a connection within two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0036] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, the integrated tray stacking and dismantling machine includes a support frame 4 and a tray clamping and lifting mechanism 3. The support frame 4 includes a side frame 15, a rear frame 16 and a top plate 14. The left and right sides of the rear frame 16 are fixedly connected to a side frame 15. The top plate 14 is fixed on the top of the side frame 15 and the rear frame 16. The bottom of the rear frame 16 is provided with a material discharge channel 10.

[0037] The rear shelf 16 is connected to a rear pallet limiting frame 1, and the inner side of the side shelf 15 is connected to a side pallet limiting frame 2.

[0038] The rear frame 16 is provided with a drive device and two parallel longitudinal guide rails 8, and the bottom of the drive device is provided with a ball screw 7 that cooperates with it.

[0039] The pallet clamping and lifting mechanism 3 includes a mounting frame 17 and two arm connectors 26. Two fixing plates 21 are provided on the back of the mounting frame 17. The two fixing plates 21 are slidably connected to two longitudinal guide rails 8 by longitudinal sliding sliders 29. Two parallel transverse guide rails 18 are provided on the mounting frame 17. The two arm connectors 26 are slidably connected to the two transverse guide rails 18 by transverse sliding sliders 30. Each of the two arm connectors 26 is connected to a rack 22. A gear 25 is provided in the middle of the frame. The gear 25 meshes with the two racks 22. A clamping cylinder 23 is provided on the mounting frame 17. The piston rod of the clamping cylinder 23 is connected to one of the arm connectors 26. A screw nut 19 that cooperates with a ball screw 7 is provided on the mounting frame 17. The arm connectors 26 are connected to pallet frame arm 27.

[0040] The drive unit here is a servo motor 5 paired with a reducer 6.

[0041] The top of the mounting frame 17 is fixedly connected to a lead screw nut fixing block 20, which is used to fix the lead screw nut 19.

[0042] The rear frame 16 is provided with a back connecting plate 9 and a screw bearing fixing seat 13. The drive device is fixed to the back connecting plate 9 by a motor fixing seat 11. The top and bottom of the ball screw 7 are fixed to the back connecting plate 9 and the bottom of the rear frame 16 by the screw bearing fixing seat 13, respectively. A coupling 12 is provided between the drive device and the ball screw 7.

[0043] The frame is a horizontally placed rectangular frame. At the top and bottom of the rectangular frame, there is a limiting wheel 24 for limiting the rack 22. The two limiting wheels 24 are located above and below the gear 25, respectively.

[0044] The pallet rack arm 27 includes two mutually perpendicular and fixedly connected arm beams. The vertical arm beam is fixedly connected to the arm connector 26, and the horizontal arm beam has a retaining beam 28 on its inner side. The side of the pallet has a rectangular recessed gap, and the retaining beam 28 is used to insert into the gap. The pull beam matches the gap on the side of the pallet.

[0045] This solution requires the use of a roller conveyor. The conveyor is installed above the end of the roller conveyor, with the roller conveyor passing through the feeding channel 10. Figure 8 , 9 As shown.

[0046] The pallet unloading process is as follows: A forklift loads a stack of pallets into the pallet unloading and stacking machine, placing them on the roller conveyor at the bottom of the machine. The clamping cylinder 23 extends, the pallet holder arm 27 opens, and the drive unit controls the ball screw 7, causing the pallet clamping lifting mechanism 3 to shift to the position of the second-to-last pallet. Figure 9 As shown, the clamping cylinder 23 tightens, and the two pallet frame arms 27 move inward at the same time. The clamping beam 28 is inserted into the gaps on the left and right sides of the bottom of the second to last pallet. The pallet frame arms 27 lift the pallet, so the second to last pallet and the stack of pallets above it are also lifted. The last pallet is separated from the stack. The roller conveyor starts and conveys the last pallet out from the discharge channel 10, completing the automatic disassembly and external delivery.

[0047] This process involves unloading material from one pallet, while the remaining pallets are processed in a loop.

[0048] Figure 8 , Figure 9 The diagram shows the process of removing the tray 32 from the roller line 31.

[0049] The stacking and unstacking processes are the opposite of the stacking and unstacking processes, which is easy to understand. By repeating the process, a stack of pallets can be produced, eliminating the need for manual handling and stacking, saving time and effort. It can even eliminate the need for forklifts to unload materials. Manuals only need to place multiple pallets in sequence. Alternatively, after stacking, a forklift can be used to remove the stack of pallets and place them into other stacking and unstacking machines.

[0050] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0051] This solution enables automated pallet unpacking, which is very convenient to use with roller conveyors, reducing manual operations and saving time and effort. It solves the problem of high labor intensity and time-consuming manual pallet placement during palletizing. Furthermore, this solution can also be used in reverse—for pallet stacking. The unpacking and stacking functions are integrated into one, enriching the functionality and improving practicality.

[0052] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model. Furthermore, the technical solutions of the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but this must be based on the ability of those skilled in the art to implement them. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be considered that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the protection scope claimed by this utility model.
