[0002] In the production of automotive air conditioning products, finished products typically need to be bundled and stacked to optimize storage space and improve logistics efficiency. However, traditional bundling and stacking operations mainly rely on manual operation or semi-automated equipment. Manual bundling and stacking is slow and cannot meet the needs of mass production, and it is also labor-intensive, prone to errors due to fatigue. Existing semi-automated equipment is limited in function, often only able to complete bundling first and then use lifting equipment to stack the products. This results in the need for multiple machines to work together or reliance on manual handling during the production process, which not only increases the complexity of the production line and operating costs, but also affects overall operational efficiency and product consistency.

Detailed Implementation

[0026] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0027] This embodiment describes an automatic packaging device for automotive air conditioning products, as shown in the attached document. Figure 1 It includes a box-in unit 1, a bundling unit 2, a stacking unit 3, and a box-out unit 5 connected in sequence.

[0028] The box feeding unit 1 is used to transport the products to be bundled to the bundling unit 2;

[0029] The bundling unit 2 includes a bundling conveying mechanism 21, a bundling mechanism 22, and a turning mechanism 23. The bundling conveying mechanism 21 is connected to the end of the box-in unit 1. The bundling conveying mechanism 21 is located at the movable end of the turning mechanism 23. The bundling mechanism 22 is located above the bundling conveying mechanism 21. The bundling mechanism 22 is used to bundle the products to form a group package.

[0030] The stacking unit 3 includes a stacking conveyor 31 and a lifting mechanism 32. The beginning of the stacking conveyor 31 is connected to the end of the bundling conveyor 21. The lifting mechanism 32 is located on both sides of the stacking conveyor 31 and is used to lift the bundled packages so that the two bundled packages can be stacked one on top of the other. The end of the stacking conveyor 31 is connected to the beginning of the unpacking unit 5.

[0031] The unpacking unit 5 is used to transport the two stacked packages outside the equipment.

[0032] By setting up a box-in unit 1, a bundling unit 2, a stacking unit 3, and a box-out unit 5, the automatic bundling and stacking of automotive air conditioning products is realized, reducing the reliance on manual labor in the bundling and stacking process, reducing the number of workers required, and reducing the risk of errors caused by worker fatigue. The bundling unit 2 bundles the products to avoid inconsistent bundling tightness due to human differences, ensuring the consistency of packaging appearance and structure, and reducing the risk of transportation damage caused by poor packaging. The stacking unit 3 lifts the bundled products, so that the final product is output in a double-layer combined packaging form, improving the space utilization rate of warehousing and transportation.

[0033] The bundling conveyor 21 is used to move the products to be bundled to the bottom of the bundling mechanism 22. The bundling mechanism 22 is run to perform the first bundling of the products. By setting the turning mechanism 23, the bundling conveyor 21 is rotated 90°. At this time, the bundling mechanism 22 can be run again to perform the second bundling of the products, thereby realizing the automatic bundling of the products and forming a group package.

[0034] After the bundling is completed, the bundled package is moved to the stacking conveyor 31 by the continued drive of the bundling conveyor 21. The stacking conveyor 31 is used to move the bundled package to the lifting mechanism 32. The lifting mechanism 32 is used to lift the bundled package to a certain height. When the next bundled package enters below the lifting mechanism 32, the lifting mechanism 32 places the lifted bundled package on the next bundled package, thereby achieving stacking. After stacking is completed, the bundled package enters the unpacking unit 5 by the drive of the stacking conveyor 31. The unpacking unit 5 is used to transport the two stacked bundled packages outside the equipment.

[0035] Preferred options are listed in the appendix. Figure 2 The box-feeding unit 1 includes a first lifting mechanism 11 and a pushing mechanism 12. The first lifting mechanism 11 includes a first lifting cylinder 111 and a first lifting base plate 112. The first lifting base plate 112 is located at the lifting end of the first lifting cylinder 111. The pushing mechanism 12 includes an extension cylinder 121, a pusher 122, a pushing module 123, and a first roller conveyor 113. The first roller conveyor 113 is located on the first lifting base plate 112. The pushing module 123 is arranged parallel to both sides of the first roller conveyor 113. The extension cylinder 121 is located at the movable end of the pushing module 123. The pusher 122 is located at the telescopic end of the extension cylinder 121. The extension cylinder 121 is used to drive the pusher 122 to extend into or away from the top of the first roller conveyor 113.

[0036] Because the bundling conveyor 21 has a certain height difference from the ground, a first lifting cylinder 111 and a first lifting base plate 112 are provided. The first lifting base plate 112 is used to load the products to be bundled, and the first lifting cylinder 111 is used to lift the first lifting base plate 112 to a certain height, so that the first lifting base plate 112 is level with the height of the bundling conveyor 21, making it easier to push the products into the bundling conveyor 21. By providing a first roller conveyor 113 on the first lifting base plate 112, the friction between the products and the surface of the first lifting base plate 112 is reduced. By providing an extension cylinder 121 and a pusher 122, when no box loading operation is performed, the pusher 122 is away from the first roller conveyor 113 to avoid affecting the loading of products. After the operator transfers the product to the first lifting base plate 112 via a forklift, the first lifting cylinder 111 lifts the first lifting base plate 112 to the same height as the bundling conveyor 21. Then, the extension cylinder 121 extends the pusher 122, so that the pusher 122 abuts against the rear of the product. Driven by the push module 123, the product on the first lifting base plate 112 is pushed onto the subsequent box conveyor 13.

[0037] Preferably, the box feeding unit 1 further includes a box feeding conveyor mechanism 13, the two ends of which are connected to the first roller conveyor 113 and the bundling conveyor mechanism 21, respectively.

[0038] The bundling unit 2 also includes a first limiting component 14 and a second limiting component 15. The first limiting component 14 is located between the box conveying mechanism 13 and the bundling conveying mechanism 21, and the second limiting component 15 is located between the bundling conveying mechanism 21 and the stacking conveying mechanism 31. The first limiting component 14 and the second limiting component 15 have the same structure. The first limiting component 14 includes a limiting cylinder and a baffle. The baffle is located at the extension end of the limiting cylinder.

[0039] By setting up a feeding conveyor 13, products entering the bundling conveyor 21 are buffered to avoid affecting the bundling processing of the bundling mechanism 22. By setting up a first limiting component 14 between the box feeding conveyor 13 and the bundling conveyor 21, the products are limited on the box feeding conveyor 13 to prevent them from directly entering the bundling conveyor 21 and affecting the bundling processing of the previous group of products by the bundling mechanism 22. By setting up a second limiting component 15 between the bundling conveyor 21 and the stacking conveyor 31, the products are positioned on the bundling conveyor 21 to ensure that the products are moved below the bundling mechanism 22.

[0040] Preferred options are listed in the appendix. Figure 3The lifting mechanism 32 includes a gantry frame 321, a chain lifting assembly 322, and a telescopic fork 323. The gantry frame 321 is located above the stacking conveyor 31, the chain lifting assembly 322 is located on the gantry frame 321, and the telescopic fork 323 is located at the lifting end of the chain lifting assembly 322. By setting the telescopic fork 323, before the bundled package enters the stacking conveyor 31, the telescopic fork 323 is in a retracted state away from the stacking conveyor 31 to avoid affecting the movement of the bundled package on the stacking conveyor 31. When the bundled package moves to below the gantry 321 under the drive of the stacking conveyor 31, the telescopic fork 323 extends and inserts into the pallet at the bottom of the bundled package. At the same time, the chain lifting component 322 drives the telescopic fork 323 to lift, thereby lifting the bundled package to a certain height. After the next bundled package enters below the gantry 321, the chain lifting component 322 drives the telescopic fork 323 to descend, so that the bundled package is stacked on the next bundled package. The telescopic fork 323 retracts and exits the pallet of the bundled package, thereby realizing the stacking of two bundled packages.

[0041] Preferred options are listed in the appendix. Figure 4 The unloading unit 5 includes a diversion unit 4 and two sets of unloading units 5. The input end of the diversion unit 4 is connected to the stacking conveyor mechanism 31, and the output end of the diversion unit 4 is connected to the two sets of unloading units 5. By setting two sets of unloading units 5, the stacked packages can be received alternately, avoiding temporary pauses in the unloading process of a single unloading unit 5 that would affect the overall production cycle and ensuring continuous and efficient operation of the equipment. If one unloading unit 5 fails to receive packages normally due to an abnormality, it can be automatically switched to another unloading unit 5 through the diversion unit 4, avoiding production line interruption and improving the fault tolerance of the equipment.

[0042] Preferably, the diversion unit 4 includes a diversion support 41, a chain drive mechanism 42, a movable receiving frame 43, and a diversion conveying mechanism 44. One side of the diversion support 41 is connected to the stacking conveying mechanism 31, and the other side of the diversion support 41 is connected to the beginning of the two sets of discharge units 5. The chain drive mechanism 42 is mounted on the diversion support 41, and the movable receiving frame 43 is mounted on the movable end of the chain drive mechanism 42. The movement direction of the chain drive mechanism 42 is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the stacking conveying mechanism 31. The diversion conveying mechanism 44 is mounted on the movable receiving frame 43. The chain drive mechanism 42 is used to drive the movable receiving frame 43 to move between the beginnings of the two sets of discharge units 5.

[0043] By setting a chain drive mechanism 42 on the diversion bracket 41 to drive the moving receiving rack 43 to move laterally between the beginnings of the two sets of discharge units 5, the combined packaging can be switched quickly and accurately between the two sets of discharge units 5, reducing waiting time and improving overall production efficiency. By setting a diversion conveyor mechanism 44 on the moving receiving rack 43, the combined packaging is conveyed to the discharge unit 5.

[0044] Preferably, the discharge unit 5 includes a discharge conveying mechanism 51 and a second lifting mechanism 52. The beginning of the discharge conveying mechanism 51 is connected to the diversion unit 4, and the end of the discharge conveying mechanism 51 is connected to the second lifting mechanism 52. The second lifting mechanism 52 is used to lower the two stacked packages to the ground. By setting the discharge conveying mechanism 51, the packages received from the diversion unit 4 are conveyed to the second lifting mechanism 52.

[0045] Preferably, the second lifting mechanism 52 includes a second lifting cylinder 521, a second lifting base plate 522, and a second roller conveyor 523. The second lifting base plate 522 is located at the lifting end of the second lifting cylinder 521, and the second roller conveyor 523 is located on the second lifting base plate 522.

[0046] Because the discharge conveyor mechanism 51 has a certain height difference from the ground, a second lifting cylinder 521 and a second lifting base plate 522 are provided. The second lifting base plate 522 is used to load and package the stacked items. The second lifting cylinder 521 is used to lift the second lifting base plate 522 to a certain height, making the second lifting base plate 522 level with the discharge conveyor mechanism 51, which facilitates the carrying of the packaged items. By setting a second roller conveyor 523 on the second lifting base plate 522, the friction between the packaged items and the surface of the second lifting base plate 522 is reduced.

[0047] Preferably, the discharge unit 5 further includes a push-out mechanism 53, which includes a push-out cylinder 531, a clamping cylinder 532, and a clamping block 533. The push-out cylinder 531 is arranged parallel to both sides of the discharge conveying mechanism 51. The clamping cylinder 532 is located at the telescopic end of the push-out cylinder 531 and is arranged perpendicular to the push-out cylinder 531. The clamping block 533 is located at the telescopic end of the clamping cylinder 532. The push-out cylinder 531 is used to drive the clamping cylinder 532 to extend into or away from the top of the second roller conveyor 523. By setting the ejection mechanism 53, when no box ejection operation is performed, the clamping cylinder 532 and the clamping block 533 are away from the second lifting base plate 522. When the package moves to the end of the discharge conveying mechanism 51, the clamping cylinder 532 drives the clamping block 533 to extend and clamp the two sides of the package. Then the ejection cylinder 531 is activated, which drives the clamping cylinder 532 and the clamping block 533 to extend above the second lifting base plate 522, thereby moving the clamped package onto the second lifting base plate 522.
