Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of wood processing technology, specifically a multi-layer high-speed sorting and palletizing production line for wooden window materials based on taku stacking. Background Technology
[0002] In the manufacturing process of wooden door and window frames, after the door and window materials are cut and planed on all four sides, they need to be classified and stacked according to their length and other structural features. Due to the length limitations of the raw materials, it is difficult to maintain a uniform length for door and window materials in the same batch. Therefore, stacking is necessary before final stacking. Currently, this process is generally done manually. Workers must pick up the wood strips one by one from the planer's outlet, visually identifying the length, thickness, and other specifications before directly stacking the door and window materials. This method places certain demands on the workers. Because it relies on visual identification, and with multiple batches being produced simultaneously, visual errors can easily lead to material accumulation at the stacking end, sometimes even requiring the entire production line to be stopped to wait for workers to stack the materials, significantly reducing production efficiency. Summary of the Invention
[0003] To address the problems existing in the aforementioned background technology, this utility model provides a multi-layer high-speed sorting and palletizing production line for wooden window and door materials based on tower stacking. The technological innovation of this production line lies in its integrated multi-functionality of sorting, stacking, and palletizing, resolving the pain point of fragmented processes. The design adopts a compact U-shaped layout, combining the tower stacking principle of a material spreading machine to maximize the use of vertical space, significantly saving floor space and adapting to existing workshop layouts. Incorporating the latest 5G communication technology, it ensures low sensor latency and rapid response. Through the above design, this production line significantly improves the palletizing efficiency of door and window materials, has a high degree of automation, reduces labor costs, and improves operational safety.

It includes a material spreading machine 1, a lifting material picking machine 2, a roller conveyor 3 and a four-sided planer 6 arranged in a U-shape. Multiple storage carts 4 are set on one side of the roller conveyor 3 and a palletizer 5 is set on the other side.
[0025] like Figures 2-5 As shown, the material spreading machine 1 includes a short material spreading machine 11, a chain stacker 12, and a long material spreading machine 13. The chain stacker 12 and the long material spreading machine 13 are of the same width. There are two short material spreading machines 11, which are respectively arranged on both sides of the long material spreading machine 13. The bottom of the lifting roller table 111 of the short material spreading machine 11 is equipped with a cylinder fixed on the frame of the short material spreading machine 11. The short material spreading machine 11 is equipped with comb-shaped lifting baffles A113 in the middle and at the tail. The lifting roller table 111 and the cantilever roller of the chain stacker 12 are connected to each other. Platform 123 maintains the same height. The lifting roller platform 111 is staggered with the short material conveyor belt 112 of the short material paving machine 11. The chain stacker 12 is equipped with multiple pushing mechanisms 121 and multiple lifting chains 122 fixed on the chain stacker frame. The cantilever roller platform 123 is arranged perpendicularly to the lifting chain 122 of the chain stacker 12. The long material paving machine 13 is equipped with comb-shaped lifting baffles B132 in the middle and at the tail. The lifting baffles B132 are staggered with the long material conveyor belt 131 of the long material paving machine 13.
[0026] like Figures 6-8 As shown, the lifting and unloading machine 2 includes a short material unloading platform 21, a long material unloading platform 22, and an unloading frame 23. There are two short material unloading platforms 21, which are respectively arranged on both sides of the long material unloading platform 22. The short material unloading platform 21 and the long material unloading platform 22 are formed by a lifting belt 211 equipped with a cylinder and a roller table 212 arranged in a staggered manner, and are respectively fixed on the short material unloading platform frame 213 and the long material unloading platform frame 221. The short material unloading platform frame 213 and the long material unloading platform frame 221 are both fixed on the unloading frame 23 by a screw.
[0027] like Figure 9 As shown, the material cart 4 is welded together from multiple square steel pipe profiles 41 and hollow steel plates 42, and is fixedly equipped with casters at the bottom.
[0028] like Figure 10 As shown, the palletizing machine 5 includes a gantry robot 51 and a base 52. The base 52 is provided with guide rails and forms a movable cooperation with the two gantry robots 51.
[0029] like Figure 11 As shown, the palletizer 51 has a guide rail on its mechanical arm frame 511, which is movably engaged with the crossbeam 512 of the gantry robot 51. The gantry robot 51 has a guide rail on its pick 513, which is movably engaged with the crossbeam 512. The pick 513 can move along the x, y and z directions.
[0030] The workflow of this utility model is as follows:
[0031] 1. Sorting of door and window materials:
[0032] First, the door and window materials are processed by the four-sided planer 6 and then discharged from the outlet. The sensor begins to detect them. The length of the door and window materials is calculated based on the input roller speed and time. The detection is completed when the door and window materials are completely discharged from the four-sided planer 6. Finally, according to the calculation results, the door and window materials longer than 1 meter are defined as long materials, and those shorter than 1 meter are defined as short materials. They are then assigned to the corresponding areas and routes, thus completing the classification process for door and window materials.
[0033] 2. Stacking of door and window materials:
[0034] When the output door and window material is a short piece, and this short piece is of the same specification as the short piece already existing in the short material laying machine 11 on the side near the outlet, the cylinder of the lifting roller table 111 retracts, the lifting roller table 111 descends, and the short piece falls onto the short material conveyor belt 112, and enters the laying area of the short material laying machine 11 with the short material conveyor belt 112. If the calculated door and window material is inconsistent with the specification of the short material already existing in the laying area of the short material laying machine 11 on the side near the outlet, the short piece is transferred by the cantilever roller table 123 to the lifting roller table 111 of the short material laying machine (11) on the other side. When the output door and window materials are long, the long materials will be lifted by the lifting roller table 111 and the lifting chain 122 of the chain stacker 12 to reach the assigned layer number, and finally pushed by the pushing mechanism 121 to the long material conveyor belt 131 of the long material flatter 13. The long materials will enter the flattening area of the long material flatter 11 along the long material conveyor belt 131. At this point, the classification process according to the specifications of the door and window materials is completed.
[0035] 3. Material selection for doors and windows:
[0036] When the short material paving machine 11 and the long material paving machine 13 are found to be full or there are no door and window materials of the same specifications, the short material picking platform 21 and the long material picking platform 22 will reach the designated layer under the action of the screw. The door and window materials will be transported to the picking platform by the conveyor belt until the paving area is empty. The short material picking platform 21 and the long material picking platform 22 will return to the initial position under the action of the screw. At this point, the picking process of door and window materials of the same specifications is completed.
[0037] 4. Stacking of door and window materials:
[0038] Subsequently, the door and window materials will be sent to the roller conveyor 3 along with the roller table of the lifting material handling machine 2. As the roller conveyor 3 moves forward, the door and window materials that arrive at the stacking area will be picked up by the inserter teeth 513 of the truss robot 51 and sent to the storage car 4. Thus, the stacking operation is completed.
[0039] Through the above implementation methods, this utility model provides an efficient, stable, and automated timber palletizing and transportation solution, which is suitable for various strip timber processing workshops and has significant economic benefits and application value.
