[0034] Please seeFigure 7 The product conveying device 3 includes a product conveyor belt 31. Both ends of the product conveyor belt 31 are provided with a variable rod 32. The bottom end of the variable rod 32 is provided with a base plate 33. The top of the base plate 33 and the bottom of the product conveyor belt 31 are provided with a round block 34. The top and bottom ends of the variable rod 32 are rotatably connected to the corresponding round block 34. A linear cylinder 35 is provided at the bottom of one end of the product conveyor belt 31. A support rod 36 is provided on one side of the linear cylinder 35. The cross-sectional shape of the support rod 36 is T-shaped. The base plate 33 is connected to the top end of the variable rod 32.
[0035] During operation, robot 2 picks up the material from empty box conveyor belt 1 and places it on product conveying device 3. Product conveying device 3 transports the material, allowing it to gradually enter processing device 4. During the material movement, the first cylinder 52 in processing device 4 is used to move the horizontal plate 51, causing the locking block 59 on one side of the horizontal plate 51 to move simultaneously. This allows the locking block 59 to contact the hook 48, and the opening rod 510 fixedly connected to the locking block 59 to merge with the groove on the surface of the hook 48, facilitating subsequent operations. After merging, the second cylinder 55 is used, causing the moving rod 56 to move. Since the bottom end of the adjusting rod 57 is movably connected to the moving rod 56, The movement of the moving rod 56 causes the adjusting rod 57 and the rotating rod 54 to rotate. The rotating rod 54 passes through the horizontal plate 51 and is in contact with the horizontal plate 51, causing the rotating rod 54 to rotate. The locking block 59 and the middle actuating rod 58, which are fixedly connected to the rotating rod 54, also rotate. The bottom end of the middle actuating rod 58 is connected to the sliding rod 511. By rotating the middle actuating rod 58, the sliding rod 511 below can be moved. The sliding rod 511 is also connected to other actuating rods 58, causing all the actuating rods 58 and the rotating rod 54 to rotate, which in turn causes the locking block 59 to rotate. This causes all the locking hooks 48 to rotate, allowing the locking hooks 48 to rotate around the rotating block 49, so that the two ends of the locking hooks 48 gradually separate from the locking slots 47, facilitating subsequent operations.
[0036] Secondly, when the opening on the surface of roller 42 is opened, motor 414 is used. Since the output shaft of motor 414 is connected to a rotating gear 413, motor 414 can make one rotating gear 413 rotate, and the two rotating gears 413 mesh, causing them to rotate simultaneously. When the two rotating gears 413 rotate, since the rotating gears 413 are fixedly connected to the corresponding first pinion 44 or second pinion 45 through the bracket, the rotation of the two rotating gears 413 can make the first pinion 44 and the second pinion 45 rotate simultaneously, improving work efficiency. When the second pinion 45 rotates, the two first pinions 44 and the second pinion 45 rotate simultaneously. Two small gears 45 are fixedly connected by a round rod 412, causing the two small gears 45 to rotate simultaneously. The first small gear 44, which meshes with the second small gears 45, also rotates simultaneously. The rotation of the first small gear 44 causes the large gear 43 below to rotate simultaneously. The roller 42, which is fixedly connected to the large gear 43, rotates simultaneously. The roller 42 is equipped with a contact sensor 411, which controls the orientation of the roller 42. The opening on the surface of the roller 42 is rotated to the upper left, making it easier for the product to enter the opening through the conveyor belt 31 in the product conveying device 3 and be placed inside the roller 42. The roller 42 can be filled with three boxes of products.
[0037] After filling, the roller 42 continues to rotate, ensuring that the opening on the surface of the roller 42 remains on the upper right and aligned with the cover opening device 5. Then, the operating hook 48 of the cover opening device 5 merges with the slot 47, and the opening is blocked by the connecting plate 46. Then, the linear cylinder 35 is used to rotate the top of the circular block 34 and the top of the moving rod 32. Since the top and bottom of the moving rod 32 are rotatably connected to the corresponding circular block 34, the moving rod 32 can gradually change from a vertical state to a horizontal state. The horizontal state of the moving rod 32 allows the upper conveyor belt 31 to gradually move downward, and the linear cylinder 35 moves downward at the same time, facilitating subsequent operations.
[0038] Furthermore, any content not described in detail in this specification is existing technology known to those skilled in the art.
