Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of material tray recycling technology, and in particular to a material tray receiving and discharging device. Background Technology

[0002] In industrial production, many components require specialized fixtures for fixation and support to ensure precise positioning and stability during processing and assembly. Trays, as important containers for storing components, are frequently used to store and transport these components to different workstations on the production line. Trays are typically conveyed sequentially into different work areas or workstations, such as loading stations, handling stations, and processing stations, ensuring that components enter the production process accurately and continuously.

[0003] In traditional industrial production lines, the handling and transfer of material trays usually rely on manual operation, especially in the material tray recycling and emptying stage. At the loading station, the parts in the material tray are first transferred one by one to the processing or assembly area of ​​the production line by the cooperation of the transfer mechanism (such as robotic arms, suction cup systems, etc.) with the conveying system. These transfer operations are usually completed automatically by robotic arms or suction cup devices to improve efficiency and reduce human error.

[0004] However, with the expansion of production line scale and the increasing complexity of production tasks, the recycling and disposal of empty trays has become a significant bottleneck. In many cases, the recycling of empty trays still relies on manual intervention. This manual recycling method not only increases production costs but also significantly reduces overall production efficiency. The manual recycling process is usually time-consuming and error-prone, affecting the automation level and efficiency of the production line.

[0005] Therefore, a tray receiving and discharging device is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

The conveyor belt assembly then transports the material tray to the handling station. After the workpieces on the material tray are handled, the conveyor belt assembly transports the material tray to the material tray recycling station for recycling.

[0012] Furthermore, the mounting platform is provided with a sliding groove for placing the feeding tray, and the conveyor belt assembly drives the feeding tray to be conveyed along the sliding groove.

[0013] Furthermore, the conveyor belt assembly includes a conveying unit and a pushing block, wherein the conveying unit is connected to the pushing block and is used to drive the pushing block to move;

[0014] The pusher block abuts against the side of the tray and pushes the tray to move.

[0015] Furthermore, the push block is rectangular in shape.

[0016] Furthermore, the mounting platform has several L-shaped plates at both ends, and the L-shaped plates surround a placement position for placing the material tray.

[0017] Furthermore, it also includes a lifting assembly and a supporting assembly, wherein the supporting assembly is disposed above the lifting assembly and is used to release / tighten the material tray when the lifting assembly rises.

[0018] Furthermore, the support assembly includes a support plate and a lateral drive assembly, wherein the drive end of the lateral drive assembly is connected to the support plate;

[0041] Reference Figures 1 to 3 The present invention provides a material tray receiving and discharging device, including a frame housing 100, a mounting platform 200, a conveyor belt assembly 300, and a material tray 110 disposed on the mounting platform 200. The mounting platform 200 includes a material tray loading station 210, a handling station 220, and a material tray recycling station 230. The conveyor belt assembly 300 is used to transport the material tray 110.

[0042] The material tray loading station 210 is used to place the material tray 110 with workpieces onto the conveyor belt assembly 300;

[0043] The handling station 220 is used to move the workpieces on the tray 110.

[0044] The material tray recycling station 230 is used to recycle the material tray 110 after the workpiece has been transported in the transport station 220;

[0045] Specifically, at the material loading station 210, a material tray 110 with workpieces is placed on the conveyor belt assembly 300. The conveyor belt assembly 300 then transports the material tray 110 to the handling station 220. After the workpieces on the material tray 110 are transported, the conveyor belt assembly 300 transports the material tray 110 to the material tray recycling station 230 for recycling.

[0046] This solution revolves around the entire flow process of loading, unloading, and recycling the material tray 110. In this embodiment, a central control component 900 is installed on the mounting platform 200. By pre-setting the operating program in the central control component 900, each component completes its corresponding process according to the preset program, without manual intervention, making it suitable for mass production. The central control component 900 works with the conveyor belt component 300 to realize the automatic transfer of the material tray 110, reducing manual operation intervention. Through automated design, the entire process of loading and recycling the material tray 110 is optimized, improving production line efficiency and reducing costs. The mounting platform 200 and the conveyor belt component 300 work together. The mounting platform 200 serves as the overall support frame, dividing the process into loading station, handling station 220, and recycling station, ensuring that the entire process has clearly defined operating areas. The conveyor belt component 300 is responsible for the lateral transfer of the material tray 110, conveying it from the loading station to the handling station 220, and then continuing to the recycling station. At the loading station of the material tray 110, no operator is required to... Instead of placing the workpiece-laden tray 110 onto the conveyor belt assembly 300, the automatic feeding system places the workpiece-laden tray 110 onto the conveyor belt assembly 300, initiating automatic transfer. The conveyor belt assembly 300 then transports the workpiece-laden tray 110 to the handling station 220. A handling component 140, located on the side of the mounting platform 200, transfers the workpiece from the tray 110. After the workpiece transfer is complete, the conveyor belt assembly 300 transports the empty tray 110 to the tray recycling station 230 for recycling, facilitating centralized processing or return to the loading station for reuse. This design utilizes the continuous operation of the conveyor belt assembly 300 to sequentially complete the process from loading to recycling of the tray 110, eliminating the need for manual intervention and achieving streamlined operation. Through automated loading, transmission, workpiece handling, and empty tray 110 recycling, it avoids manual waiting time, increases workpiece transfer speed, shortens the processing cycle, reduces the need for operators, and lowers the labor costs of the production line.

[0047] The mounting platform 200 is provided with a sliding groove 400 for placing the feeding tray 110, and the conveyor belt assembly 300 drives the feeding tray 110 to be conveyed along the sliding groove 400.

[0048] The conveyor belt assembly 300 includes a conveying unit 310 and a pushing block 320. The conveying unit 310 is connected to the pushing block 320 and is used to drive the pushing block 320 to move.

[0049] The push block 320 abuts against the side of the material tray 110, and the push block 320 pushes the material tray 110 to move.

[0050] The push block 320 is rectangular in shape;

[0051] This embodiment focuses on the stable transmission and conveying accuracy of the material tray 110. It adopts the cooperation of the sliding groove 400 and the push block 320 to ensure that the material tray 110 moves in a controlled manner and remains stable during the conveying process. The sliding groove 400 limits the movement trajectory of the material tray 110, and the rectangular push block 320 effectively and smoothly transmits the conveying force to the material tray 110. Specifically, the sliding groove 400 provided on the mounting platform 200 provides a conveying channel for the material tray 110. The material tray 110 can only move along the direction of the sliding groove 400, avoiding deviation or tilting during operation. The conveyor belt assembly 300 applies force to the side of the material tray 110 through the connected push block 320, pushing the material tray 110 to move along the sliding groove 400. The rectangular design of the push block 320 utilizes its plane to make close contact with the material tray 110, providing smooth thrust transmission and ensuring smooth movement. The conveying unit 310 automates the entire conveying process by driving the push block 320 to move, pushing the material tray 110 to complete the work from loading to recycling. In another embodiment, the push block 320 is in the shape of a right triangle, with the hypotenuse of the right triangle facing the material tray 110, using its inclined surface to contact the material tray to provide smooth thrust transmission.

[0052] The mounting platform 200 has several L-shaped plates 120 at both ends, and the L-shaped plates 120 surround a placement position for placing the material tray 110.

[0053] The design focus of this embodiment is to provide a stable placement structure for the material tray 110. Specifically, four L-shaped plates 120 are provided at both the material tray loading station 210 and the material tray recycling station 230. The four L-shaped plates 120 together form a rectangular storage and positioning space. By arranging L-shaped plates 120 at both ends of the mounting platform 200 to enclose the placement position, the position of the material tray 110 is defined, preventing the material tray 110 from sliding or tipping over during conveying or placement.

[0054] In this embodiment, the tray 110 is rectangular, and L-shaped plates 120 are arranged at both ends of the mounting platform 200 to form a rectangular placement position. The vertical portion of each L-shaped plate 120 corresponds to the four corners of the tray 110, providing a surrounding constraint on the tray 110. Through this layout, the L-shaped plates 120, with their rigid structure, limit the horizontal position and rotation direction of the tray 110 within the placement position, achieving stable positioning of the tray 110.

[0055] The tray receiving and discharging device also includes a lifting assembly 500 and a supporting assembly 600. The supporting assembly 600 is located above the lifting assembly 500 and is used to release / tighten the tray 110 when the lifting assembly 500 rises.

[0056] The support assembly 600 includes a support plate and a lateral drive assembly, wherein the drive end of the lateral drive assembly is connected to the support plate.

[0057] When the lifting assembly 500 moves upward in the vertical direction, the horizontal drive assembly drives the support plate to move in the horizontal direction away from the mounting platform 200.

[0058] The L-shaped plate 120 is provided with a strip groove 130 on the side near the mounting platform 200, and the support plate and the strip groove 130 cooperate with each other under the drive of the transverse drive assembly.

[0059] Specifically, the lifting assembly 500 includes a first lifting plate, a first lifting drive unit 510, a second lifting plate, and a second lifting drive unit 520; the support plate includes a first support unit 710 and a second support unit 720; and the lateral drive assembly includes a first drive unit 810 and a second drive unit 820. In actual operation, both the lifting assembly 500 and the support assembly 600 are located below the material tray 110. The lifting assembly 500 and the support assembly 600 work together at the material tray loading station 210 to complete the separation and unloading of the material tray 110, and work together at the material tray recycling station 230 to complete the... The empty material tray 110 is collected and recycled. Specifically, the first lifting drive unit 510 drives the first lifting plate to lift the tray 110 vertically upwards. At this time, the tray 110 is lifted until its bottom separates from the first support unit 710. Subsequently, the first support unit 710 moves along the sliding groove 400 away from the mounting platform 200 under the drive of the first drive unit 810. The first lifting drive unit 510 then drives the first lifting plate downwards again, and the tray 110 descends with the first lifting plate onto the conveyor belt assembly 300. The first drive unit 810 then drives the first support unit... 710 presses the material tray 110, thus completing the unloading of one material tray 110; then, the material tray 110 with the workpiece is conveyed to the handling station 220 under the joint action of the conveying unit 310 and the pushing block 320. The handling component 140 transfers the workpiece off the material tray 110. After the transfer is completed, the empty material tray 110 is conveyed to the material tray recycling station 230 under the action of the conveyor belt component 300. At this time, the empty material tray 110 is located above the lifting component 500. Specifically, the second drive unit 820 drives the second support unit 720 to move in a direction away from the mounting platform 200. Subsequently, the second lifting drive unit 520 drives the second lifting plate to lift the empty material tray 110 upwards. After reaching the preset position, the second drive unit 820 drives the second support plate again to clamp and position the collected empty material tray 110, thus completing all the processes of unloading, conveying, transporting and transferring the material tray 110 with workpieces, as well as collecting the empty material tray 110. The linkage design of the lifting component 500 and the support component 600 realizes the automatic separation, unloading and recycling of the material tray 110, reducing the dependence on manual labor, realizing a high degree of automation in the production process, and improving the working efficiency of the entire production line.
