Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of board stacking and carrying device, specifically a kind of furniture board automatic stacking and carrying device. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the industrial production field, especially in the board processing flow line, stacking is a crucial link after product off-line. Efficient stacking operation can significantly improve the carrying and transfer efficiency of materials and reduce the labor intensity. At present, industrial robots are generally used to cooperate with vacuum suction type end effector to grasp, carry and stack the wood board formed on the flow line, and then the packing and transportation are carried out.

[0003] The typical wood board stacking process in the prior art is as follows: a lifting / translation device provided with vacuum suction cups is moved to the predetermined position of the wood board above the flow line by a motor-driven screw mechanism; the vacuum suction cups are started to adsorb and grasp the wood board; then the mechanical arm transfers the wood board to above the designated storage box; the vacuum is released, and the wood board falls into the storage box for stacking. After the wood board in the storage box is stacked to the predetermined height, the whole is moved out for subsequent packing process.

[0004] The prior art has a problem: the storage box structure for receiving and stacking wood boards is not reasonable. Specifically, its inner cavity is usually designed as a simple rectangular space, and after the wood boards are stacked, their bottom and side are tightly attached to the inner wall and bottom surface of the storage box. This structure lacks a guide or prepositioning space reserved for subsequent bundling and packaging operations, especially without a special guide groove or channel for facilitating the insertion of packaging belt into the bottom of wood pile. This results in that when the bundling operation is performed after the wood board stacking is completed, the worker has difficulty in smoothly inserting the packaging belt into the bottom of the wood pile, often needs to pry the wood pile or use other auxiliary means, greatly reduces the efficiency and convenience of the bundling operation, increases the operation difficulty and safety hazard, and affects the smoothness of the overall production line.

[0005] Therefore, it is urgent to develop a new type of stacking and carrying device to improve the convenience and automation degree of the bundling link after stacking. UTILITY MODEL CONTENTS
