[0010] Furthermore, the shaping mechanism includes a bracket, a first driving mechanism, and two shaping components. The bracket is connected to the moving mechanism, and the two shaping components are spaced apart on the bracket. Each shaping component is provided with a suction cup.

[0038] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0039] See Figure 1 As shown in the figure, this application discloses an automatic valve bag feeding machine, including a picking device, a robotic arm device and a flipping device 300.

[0040] Specifically, the picking device includes a lifting mechanism 110 and a picking mechanism 120. The lifting mechanism 110 is used to drive the picking mechanism 120 to lift and lower, and the picking mechanism 120 is used to pick up the valve bag. The robotic arm device includes a moving mechanism 210, a shaping mechanism 220, and a bag-fixing mechanism 230. The moving mechanism 210 is located on one side of the picking device, and the shaping mechanism 220 is mounted on the moving mechanism 210. The moving mechanism 210 is used to drive the shaping mechanism 220 to move laterally. The shaping mechanism 220 is used to fix the valve bag and keep the bag opening in an open state. The bag-fixing mechanism 230 is located on one side of the shaping mechanism 220 and is used to grip the valve bag after it has been filled with material. The flipping device 300 is located below the moving mechanism 210 and is used to rotate the valve bag.

[0041] It is worth understanding that, depending on actual movement needs, the moving mechanism 210 can also be used to drive the shaping mechanism 220 and the bag-fixing mechanism 230 to move longitudinally. In this case, the specific structure of the moving mechanism 210 is designed according to its corresponding function, and the implementation method is existing technology, so it will not be described in detail here.

[0042] In the automatic valve bag loading machine of this application embodiment, after the picking mechanism 120 picks up the valve bag, the lifting mechanism 110 can drive the picking mechanism 120 to rise, thereby completing the valve bag picking operation. As the picking mechanism 120 rises, the picked-up valve bag can be raised to the gripping range of the shaping mechanism 220. Subsequently, the shaping mechanism 220 fixes the valve bag and opens it, while the moving mechanism 210 moves the opened valve bag to the packaging machine. After the material in the valve bag is filled, the lateral movement mechanism drives the bag fixing mechanism 230 to the packaging machine and clamps the valve bag filled with material. Then, the lateral movement mechanism, through the bag fixing mechanism 230, moves the valve bag filled with material to the flipping device 300. The flipping device 300 flips the valve bag at a certain angle to facilitate unloading. In this way, bag loading and transfer operations can be realized, which helps to improve packaging efficiency.

[0043] In some embodiments of this application, see Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the pickup mechanism 120 includes a suction cup assembly. Specifically, the suction cup assembly is connected to the output end of the lifting mechanism 110. When picking up the valve pocket, the lifting mechanism 110 drives the pickup mechanism 120 to descend, so that the suction cup assembly of the pickup mechanism 120 contacts the valve pocket. Subsequently, the suction cup assembly picks up the valve pocket through vacuum adsorption. The lifting mechanism 110 then drives the suction cup assembly to rise to the gripping position of the shaping mechanism 220, so that the shaping mechanism 220 can easily grip the valve pocket.

[0044] In this embodiment, the suction cup assembly includes multiple suction cups spaced apart to facilitate the stable adsorption of the valve pocket.

[0045] In some embodiments of this application, see Figures 1 to 4 The automatic valve bag loading machine includes a bag magazine 130, which is located below the picking mechanism 120 and is used to store valve bags. Specifically, the bag magazine 130 is within the stroke range of the lifting mechanism 110. The lifting mechanism 110 can move the picking mechanism 120 to the bag magazine 130 to pick up the valve bags by lifting and moving them within the stroke range of the robotic arm device, so that the robotic arm device can easily grasp the valve bags transferred by the picking mechanism 120.

[0046] In some embodiments of this application, see Figures 1 to 4 as well as Figures 7 to 9The shaping mechanism 220 includes a support 221, a first drive mechanism, and two shaping components. The support 221 is connected to the moving mechanism 210. The two shaping components are spaced apart on the support 221, and each shaping component is equipped with a suction cup. The first drive mechanism is used to drive at least one of the two shaping components to move relative to the other. Specifically, when the valve bag picked up by the picking mechanism 120 is raised, the valve bag can move between the two spaced-apart shaping components. At this time, after the suction cups on the two shaping components are activated, the two sides of the valve bag can be attracted by the suction cups on both sides. As the first drive mechanism drives the two shaping components to separate from each other, the valve bag can be opened to facilitate the packaging machine to load materials into the valve bag.

[0047] In the above embodiments, the moving mechanism 210 can drive the shaping mechanism 220 and the bag fixing mechanism 230 to move laterally, so that the shaping mechanism 220 and the bag fixing mechanism 230 can move back and forth between the bag feeding station of the picking mechanism 120 and the loading station of the packaging machine.

[0048] In some embodiments of this application, the first driving mechanism includes a first cylinder mounted on a bracket 221, and a shaping component connected to the output end of the first cylinder. The first cylinder, through extension and retraction, can drive the shaping component connected to it to move relative to another shaping component, thereby causing the two shaping components to separate or move closer together.

[0049] In this embodiment, each shaping component is connected to the output end of a first cylinder, and each first cylinder is used to drive one shaping component to move relative to another shaping component.

[0050] In some embodiments of this application, see Figures 10 to 12 The bag-fixing mechanism 230 includes a second drive mechanism and a clamping mechanism. The clamping mechanism is mounted on the bracket 221, and the second drive mechanism is used to drive the clamping mechanism to rotate. When material is loaded into the valve bag, the overall weight of the valve bag increases. At this time, the clamping mechanism is driven by the second drive mechanism to clamp the valve bag, thereby fixing the valve bag. In this way, the moving mechanism can move the valve bag from the loading station of the packaging machine to the turning device 300 by driving the bag-fixing mechanism 230.

[0051] In some embodiments of this application, please refer to... Figures 10 to 12 The clamping mechanism includes two spaced-apart clamping blocks positioned below the shaping component. The suction cup of the bag-fixing mechanism 230 contacts the upper part of the valve bag, while the two clamping blocks of the clamping mechanism contact the middle or lower part of the valve bag to prevent the valve bag from tipping over after being filled with material.

[0052] In one embodiment of this application, the clamping mechanism includes a second cylinder, at least one of the clamping blocks is connected to the second cylinder, and the second drive mechanism includes a servo motor, the output end of which is connected to the second cylinder. The output end of the second cylinder is connected to the clamping block, and the second cylinder can drive the connected clamping block closer to or further away from another clamping block to clamp and support the valve bag after it has been filled with material.

[0053] In some embodiments of this application, the flipping device 300 includes a clamping mechanism 310 and a rotary drive mechanism 320. The clamping mechanism 310 is located below the moving mechanism 210, and the clamping mechanism 310 is connected to the output end of the rotary drive mechanism 320, which drives the clamping mechanism 310 to rotate. In this way, the valve bag that was placed vertically can be changed to be placed horizontally.

[0054] In one embodiment of this application, see Figure 13 and Figure 14 The automatic valve bag loading machine has two flipping devices 300, which are spaced apart along the lateral movement direction of the moving mechanism 210. This means the machine has a dual-station design; while the packaging machine is filling the valve bags, the robotic arm can simultaneously perform bag opening and unpacking operations at the other station. This saves waiting time during bag opening and unpacking, thus improving production efficiency.

[0055] Of course, in some other embodiments, a flipping device 300 and a rotating block located on one side of the flipping device 300 can be used to achieve the flipping operation of the valve pocket.

[0056] In some embodiments of this application, see Figure 11 and Figure 12 The flipping device 300 includes a conveyor belt 330, one end of which is connected to a clamping mechanism 310. Thus, after the moving mechanism 210 places the valve bag filled with material onto the conveyor belt 330, the valve bag can be moved to the clamping mechanism 310 via the conveyor belt 330. The clamping mechanism 310 and the rotary drive mechanism 320 can then rotate the valve bag by a certain angle, such as 90 degrees.
