[0001] This utility model relates to the field of packaging machinery technology, and in particular to a novel pre-made bag picking mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] In the modern packaging industry, prefabricated bags are widely used due to their convenience, aesthetic appeal, and excellent sealing properties. However, traditional prefabricated bag retrieval methods largely rely on manual operation, which is not only inefficient but also inefficient and costly, making it difficult to meet the demands of large-scale production. Although some automated bag retrieval equipment has been applied, it has many shortcomings. For example, some retrieval mechanisms are inaccurately positioned, leading to retrieval failures or damage to the prefabricated bags; some equipment has a single retrieval action and cannot adapt to the retrieval needs of prefabricated bags of different specifications and materials; and some equipment has a complex structure, high maintenance costs, and poor stability. With the packaging industry's ever-increasing demands for production efficiency and quality, developing a new type of prefabricated bag retrieval mechanism that is highly efficient, precise, and adaptable is of significant practical importance. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a novel pre-made bag picking mechanism, which is mainly used in various packaging production lines to accurately and efficiently pick up pre-made bags from the storage area and transport them to subsequent packaging processes, thereby improving the level of packaging automation and production efficiency and solving the above-mentioned technical problems.

[0004] To achieve the above technical solution, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows: A novel pre-made bag picking mechanism includes a dragging component and a bag picking bracket mounted on the output end of the dragging component. The novel pre-made bag picking mechanism further includes:

[0005] The first drive source is fixed on the bag-retrieving bracket and is used to provide lifting power;

[0006] A second drive source, oscillatingly mounted on one side of the bag-retrieving bracket, is used to provide oscillating power; and

[0007] The suction cup component is movably mounted on the bag-retrieving bracket. The first driving source can drive the suction cup component to reciprocate in the vertical direction, and the second driving source can drive the suction cup component to swing back and forth around the hinge for adjustment.

[0008] Furthermore, the first driving source is a lifting cylinder; the lifting cylinder is mounted on the top of the bag-retrieving bracket via a first cylinder mounting plate; a first magnetic switch is provided at each extension / retraction position of the lifting cylinder.

[0009] Furthermore, the second driving source is a swing cylinder; the swing cylinder is mounted on the side of the bag-collecting bracket via a cylinder swing seat; the other end of the swing cylinder is hinged to the suction cup component.

[0010] Furthermore, the suction cup component includes a suction cup bracket slidably mounted on the bag-retrieving bracket; a swing base is rotatably mounted at the bottom of the suction cup bracket; a crossbeam with a through elongated hole is detachably mounted on the swing base; a suction cup assembly is adjustablely mounted on the crossbeam; a vacuum generator is mounted at the top of the suction cup bracket; and the vacuum generator is connected to the suction cup assembly via a pipeline.

[0011] Furthermore, it is assumed that there is an L-shaped connecting seat at the top of the crossbeam, and the output end of the second drive source is hinged to the L-shaped connecting seat; a bag limiting block is provided at the top of the suction cup bracket.

[0012] Furthermore, the dragging component includes a side plate; a belt drive assembly is rotatably provided on one side of the side plate; the output end of the belt drive assembly is fixedly connected to the bag-retrieving bracket.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] 1) The bag-retrieving mechanism of this utility model combines a dragging component, a first drive source, a second drive source, and a suction cup component. The dragging component drives the bag-retrieving bracket to move as a whole, achieving a wide range of positional adjustments. The first drive source provides lifting power, enabling the suction cup component to move vertically closer to or away from the pre-made bag. The second drive source provides swinging power, allowing the suction cup component to swing around the hinge to adjust its angle. This multi-dimensional movement allows the bag-retrieving mechanism to adapt to pre-made bags at different placement angles and positions, greatly improving the flexibility and success rate of bag retrieval.

[0015] 2) The first driving source of this utility model adopts a lifting cylinder, which is mounted on the top of the bag-picking bracket via a first cylinder mounting plate, resulting in a stable structure. A first magnetic switch, positioned corresponding to the extension / retraction position of the lifting cylinder, can accurately monitor the cylinder piston position. When the piston reaches the set extension / retraction position, the magnetic switch sends a signal to promptly control the lifting cylinder to stop, ensuring that the suction cup component accurately reaches the gripping and releasing position of the pre-made bag, achieving precise lifting and lowering operations, and avoiding bag-picking failure or damage to the pre-made bag due to positional deviation.

[0016] 3) The second driving source of this utility model is a swing cylinder, which is installed on the side of the bag-picking bracket via a cylinder swing seat, and the other end is hinged to the suction cup component. The swing cylinder can flexibly drive the suction cup component to swing around the hinge, and can adjust the angle of the suction cup component in real time according to the actual placement angle of the pre-made bag, so that the suction cup component can better fit the surface of the pre-made bag, effectively improving the success rate of bag picking, especially suitable for pre-made bags with irregular placement angles.

[0017] 4) The suction cup bracket of this utility model is slidably mounted on the bag-grabbing bracket, and can smoothly rise and fall under the drive of the first drive source. The swing seat is rotatably mounted at the bottom of the suction cup bracket, allowing the crossbeam to be adjusted in angle, further enhancing its adaptability to pre-made bags at different angles. The crossbeam has a through-hole for easy and adjustable installation of the suction cup assembly, allowing for flexible adjustment of the position and spacing of the suction cup assembly according to the size and shape of the pre-made bag. The vacuum generator is mounted on the top of the suction cup bracket and connected to the suction cup assembly pipeline, providing a stable vacuum suction force to the suction cup assembly, ensuring reliable gripping of the pre-made bag.

[0018] 5) The L-shaped connecting seat at the top of the crossbeam of this utility model is hinged to the output end of the second drive source, ensuring that the swing cylinder can effectively drive the crossbeam and suction cup assembly to swing, making the swing action more stable and accurate. The bag-lifting limit block at the top of the suction cup bracket can prevent the pre-made bag from being excessively lifted during the bag-lifting process, avoiding the pre-made bag from falling off or being damaged due to excessive lifting, thus improving the safety and stability of the bag-lifting process.

[0019] 6) The side plate of the dragging component of this utility model provides stable support for the belt drive assembly. The belt drive assembly is rotatably mounted on one side of the side plate, and its output end is fixedly connected to the bag-picking bracket. The belt drive has the characteristics of smooth transmission and high transmission efficiency, and can quickly and accurately transport the bag-picking bracket and its suction cup components to the pre-made bag storage area and packaging station, realizing the efficient transfer of pre-made bags and improving the work efficiency of the entire bag picking and packaging process.

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0024] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0025] Please see the appendix Figures 1 to 2 As shown, a novel pre-made bag picking mechanism mainly consists of a dragging component 1, a bag picking bracket 2, a first drive source 3, a second drive source 4, and a suction cup component 5. The dragging component 1 is responsible for driving the bag picking bracket 2 to move, realizing the displacement of the bag picking mechanism between the pre-made bag storage area and the packaging station; the first drive source 3 and the second drive source 4 provide lifting and swinging power to the suction cup component 5, respectively, enabling the suction cup component 5 to flexibly adjust its position and angle and accurately grasp the pre-made bags; the suction cup component 5 is used to adsorb and grasp the pre-made bags.

[0026] Based on the above embodiment, the dragging component 1 includes a side plate 11 and a belt drive assembly 12. The side plate 11 provides a supporting structure for the entire dragging component 1, ensuring its stability. The belt drive assembly 12 is rotatably mounted on one side of the side plate 11, and its output end is fixedly connected to the bag-picking bracket 2. The belt drive assembly 12, driven by a motor (not shown in the figure), enables the horizontal movement of the bag-picking bracket 2, accurately transporting the bag-picking bracket 2 and its components to the pre-made bag storage location and packaging station, providing basic displacement assurance for bag picking and delivery operations.

[0027] Based on the above embodiments, the bag-retrieving bracket 2 is a key structure connecting all components, providing an installation platform for the first drive source 3, the second drive source 4, and the suction cup component 5. Its stable structure ensures the relative position stability of each component during operation, guaranteeing the accuracy and continuity of the bag-retrieving action.

[0028] Based on the above embodiments, the first driving source 3 is a lifting cylinder, which is mounted on the top of the bag-grabbing bracket 2 via a first cylinder mounting plate. The lifting cylinder can precisely control the vertical movement of the suction cup component 5. A first magnetic switch is provided at each extension and retraction position of the lifting cylinder. The first magnetic switch can monitor the piston position of the lifting cylinder in real time. When the piston reaches the set position, the magnetic switch sends a signal to control the lifting cylinder to stop moving, thereby achieving precise control of the lifting position of the suction cup component 5 and ensuring that the suction cup component 5 can accurately reach the grasping position of the pre-made bag. Of course, in other embodiments, the first driving source 3 can also be an electric type, a cylinder type, or other reciprocating linear motion mechanical structure, which is not specifically limited here.

[0029] Based on the above embodiment, the second drive source 4 is a swing cylinder, which is mounted on the side of the bag-retrieving bracket 2 via a cylinder swing seat. The other end of the swing cylinder is hinged to the suction cup component 5. The swing cylinder can provide swing power to the suction cup component 5, causing it to swing back and forth around the hinge for adjustment. By controlling the swing angle and frequency of the swing cylinder, the suction cup component 5 can be adaptively adjusted according to the placement angle and position of the pre-made bag, improving the success rate and flexibility of bag retrieval. Of course, in other embodiments, the second drive source 4 can also be an electric type, a cylinder type, or other reciprocating linear motion mechanical structure, which is not specifically limited here.

[0030] Based on the above embodiments, the suction cup component 5 includes a suction cup bracket 51, a swing base 52, a crossbeam 53, a suction cup assembly 54, and a vacuum generator 55. The suction cup bracket 51 is slidably mounted on the bag-retrieving bracket 2 and can reciprocate vertically under the drive of the first driving source 3. The swing base 52 is rotatably mounted at the bottom of the suction cup bracket 51, and the crossbeam 53 is detachably mounted on the swing base 52. The crossbeam 53 has a through-hole to facilitate the position adjustment of the suction cup assembly 54 to meet the gripping needs of pre-made bags of different sizes. The suction cup assembly 54 is adjustablely mounted on the crossbeam 53 and adsorbs the pre-made bags through the vacuum suction generated by the vacuum generator 55. The vacuum generator 55 is mounted on the top of the suction cup bracket 51 and connected to the suction cup assembly 54 through a pipeline to ensure that the suction cup assembly 54 can stably adsorb the pre-made bags. In addition, the top of the crossbeam 53 is provided with an L-shaped connecting seat, which is hinged to the output end of the second drive source 4, so that the second drive source 4 can drive the suction cup component 5 to swing; the top of the suction cup bracket 51 is provided with a bag lifting limit block to prevent the pre-made bag from being lifted excessively during the bag picking process, and to ensure the safety and stability of the bag picking action.

[0031] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: Under the command of the packaging production line control system, the belt drive assembly 12 of the dragging component 1 is activated, driving the bag-picking bracket 2 to move above the pre-made bag storage area. Through the precise control of the belt drive assembly 12, the bag-picking bracket 2 is accurately aligned with the pre-made bag storage position. After reaching the pre-made bag storage area, the lifting cylinder of the first drive source 3, based on the feedback of the first magnetic switch, drives the suction cup component 5 to move downward, bringing the suction cup component 54 close to the pre-made bag. At the same time, the swing cylinder of the second drive source 4, based on the actual placement angle of the pre-made bag, drives the suction cup component 5 to swing around the hinge, adjusting the angle of the suction cup component 54 so that it fully adheres to the surface of the pre-made bag, preparing for gripping. When the suction cup component 54 reaches the appropriate position and angle, the vacuum generator 55 is activated, causing the suction cup component 54 to generate vacuum suction, adsorbing the pre-made bag. At this time, the first drive source 3 drives the suction cup component 5 to move upward, lifting the pre-made bag from the storage area. The dragging component 1 restarts, moving the bag-picking bracket 2 and its suction cup component 5, which holds the pre-made bag, above the packaging station. During this movement, the first drive source 3 and the second drive source 4 fine-tune the position and angle of the suction cup component 5 as needed to ensure the pre-made bag is accurately delivered to the packaging station. Upon reaching the packaging station, the vacuum generator 55 stops working, and the suction cup assembly 54 releases the pre-made bag, completing the bag picking and delivery operation and preparing for the next bag picking cycle.

[0032] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention in any way. Although the present invention has been disclosed above with reference to preferred embodiments, it is not intended to limit the present invention. Any person skilled in the art should be able to make equivalent embodiments by making some changes or modifications to the above-disclosed technical content without departing from the scope of the present invention. Any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention without departing from the scope of the present invention shall still fall within the scope of the present invention.
