Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of packaging equipment, and in particular to a multi-axis electromechanical arm collaborative operation platform for packaging engineering. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of packaging engineering, with the diversification of product types and the increasing demand for personalization, traditional packaging equipment can no longer meet the flexible packaging needs of irregularly shaped products. Irregularly shaped products typically have complex geometries and irregular dimensions, which places higher demands on the flexibility and adaptability of packaging equipment. Different placement trays are needed for products with different shapes to ensure their stability during the packaging process. However, when the product type changes, the placement trays need to be replaced. The placement trays on traditional work platforms cannot be disassembled, which makes it impossible to quickly change the placement trays when the product type changes, thus limiting their use.

[0003] In addition, traditional packaging equipment also has certain limitations in the material unloading process. The unloading process usually requires manual intervention or relies on complex mechanical structures, which not only increases the difficulty of operation, but may also lead to low packaging efficiency. To address this, this solution proposes a multi-axis electric robotic arm collaborative operation platform for packaging engineering. Utility Model Content

[0004] The multi-axis electromechanical arm collaborative operation platform for packaging engineering proposed in this utility model solves the problems of existing operation platforms being unable to adapt to flexible packaging of various irregularly shaped products and inconvenient material unloading.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A multi-axis electro-mechanical arm collaborative operation platform for packaging engineering includes a base plate, a support column rotatably connected to the top of the base plate, a mounting plate fixed to the top of the support column, and multiple mounting slots on the top surface of the mounting plate, with fixing mechanisms installed in the mounting slots.

[0007] The fixing mechanism includes a mounting plate hinged in the mounting groove, a baffle mounted on the top surface of the mounting plate, and a drive assembly mounted on the mounting plate for driving the baffle to rise and fall. The top surface of the mounting plate has a connecting hole and multiple fixing holes, with the connecting hole located at the center of the multiple fixing holes.

[0008] The top surface of the mounting plate has a storage groove for storing the baffle on the side away from the center of the mounting plate. The drive assembly includes an elastic airbag installed in the storage groove and an air distribution component installed on the bottom surface of the mounting plate for inflating and deflating the elastic airbag.

[0009] The bottom surface of the mounting plate is equipped with a transmission mechanism for driving it to rotate up and down. The transmission mechanism includes a movable column mounted on the outer periphery of the support column via an elastic element, a connecting rod hinged to the outer wall of the movable column, and an abutment ring fixed on the base plate for driving the movable column to move up and down. The other end of the connecting rod is hinged to the bottom surface of the mounting plate, and the bottom of the movable column abuts against the top surface of the abutment ring.

[0010] The above technical solution not only improves processing efficiency through the setting of multiple fixed mechanisms, but also enables automatic unloading of products. It also facilitates the replacement of product placement trays according to the shape of the products, thereby easily meeting the packaging needs of various irregularly shaped products.

[0011] As a further improvement to the above solution, a limiting groove is provided on one side of the connecting hole, which is arranged along its axial direction, and the length of the limiting groove is the same as the depth of the connecting hole.

[0012] As a further improvement to the above solution, the bottom surface of the mounting plate is hinged to the bottom of the mounting groove on the side near the center of the mounting plate.

[0013] As a further improvement to the above solution, the number of gas distribution components is two. The bottom surface of the mounting plate has two fixing slots for installing the two gas distribution components respectively. The end of the mounting plate near the center of the mounting plate has two buffer holes, which are respectively set with the two fixing slots. A through hole is opened between the buffer hole and the corresponding fixing slot. The gas distribution component includes an air cylinder fixed in the fixing slot, a piston plate set in the air cylinder, and a piston rod fixed on one side of the outer wall of the piston plate. One end of the air cylinder is equipped with an air supply pipe, and the other end of the air supply pipe extends into the receiving slot and communicates with the interior of the elastic air bag. The other end of the piston rod extends through the through hole into the buffer hole and abuts against the mounting slot. A reset component for driving the piston rod to move is installed on the outer periphery of the piston rod.

[0014] As a further improvement to the above solution, the reset component includes a spring 1 movably sleeved on the outer periphery of the piston rod and a spring retainer block sleeved on the outer periphery of the piston rod. Both the spring retainer block and the spring 1 are located inside the buffer hole, and one end of the spring 1 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the buffer hole, while the other end of the spring 1 is fixedly connected to the spring retainer block.

[0015] As a further improvement to the above solution, a groove for installing an elastic element is provided on the outer periphery of the support column. The groove is arranged along the axial direction of the support column. The elastic element includes a sleeve rod fixed in the groove along the length direction of the groove, a sliding sleeve movably sleeved on the outer periphery of the sleeve rod, and a second spring. One end of the sliding sleeve is fixedly connected to the outer periphery of the movable column, the top of the second spring is fixedly connected to the bottom of the sliding sleeve, and the bottom of the second spring is fixedly connected to the bottom of the groove.

[0016] As a further improvement to the above solution, the abutment ring includes a smooth section and a transition section. The transition section includes a horizontal section and inclined sections located at both ends of the horizontal section. One end of each of the two inclined sections is connected to both ends of the smooth section. Both the smooth section and the horizontal section are parallel to the top surface of the base plate, and the smooth section is located above the horizontal section.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0018] 1. With the installation plate, fixing holes, connecting holes and limiting grooves, it is easy to install and use placement trays of different shaped product packaging on the installation plate, so as to easily adapt to the needs of different shaped product packaging.

[0019] 2. Through the transmission mechanism, the mounting plate can be automatically driven to flip during the rotation of the mounting tray, thereby automatically unloading the packaged products placed in the tray on the top of the mounting plate, achieving the purpose of automatic unloading. After unloading is completed, the mounting plate can be automatically driven to return to its original position as the mounting tray continues to rotate.

[0020] 3. By setting the drive component, the baffle 4 can be automatically driven to descend and retract into the storage slot during the downward flipping of the mounting plate, so as to prevent the baffle from affecting the product on the top surface of the mounting plate from slipping off. During the upward flipping of the mounting plate, the baffle can be driven to automatically move up and rise, thereby using the baffle to block the product on the top surface of the mounting plate and prevent it from being thrown out of the mounting plate during the rotation of the mounting plate.

[0030] The present invention will now be further described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that, without conflict, the various embodiments or technical features described below can be arbitrarily combined to form new embodiments.

[0031] Example 1:

[0032] Please combine Figure 1 - Figure 7 The multi-axis electromechanical arm collaborative operation platform for packaging engineering in this embodiment includes a base plate 1, a support column 10 rotatably connected to the top of the base plate 1, a mounting plate 2 fixed to the top of the support column 10, a drive motor 11 mounted on the bottom surface of the base plate 1, a drive gear sleeved on the output shaft of the drive motor 11, and a driven gear meshing with the drive gear fixed to the bottom of the support column 10 below the base plate 1. The rotation of the drive motor 11 drives the support column 10 to rotate, thereby driving the mounting plate 2 to rotate.

[0033] The top surface of the mounting tray 2 has multiple mounting slots 12, and a fixing mechanism is installed in the mounting slot 12. The fixing mechanism includes a mounting plate 5 hinged in the mounting slot 12, a baffle 4 installed on the top surface of the mounting plate 5, and a drive assembly installed on the mounting plate 5 for driving the baffle 4 to rise and fall. The bottom surface of the mounting plate 5 is hinged to the bottom of the mounting slot 12 on the side near the center of the mounting tray 2. The top surface of the mounting plate 5 has a connecting hole 6 and multiple fixing holes 3. The connecting hole 6 is located at the center of the multiple fixing holes 3. The outer side of the mounting tray 2 has a receiving position and a discharging position. The drive motor 11 intermittently drives the support column 10 to rotate. Each rotation will rotate one mounting plate 5 to the receiving position and another mounting plate 5 to the discharging position. When the mounting plate 5 rotates to the receiving position, the product to be packaged falls into the placement tray on the top surface of the mounting plate 5 at that position. After packaging is completed, it rotates to the discharging position. After reaching the discharging position, the mounting plate 5 is flipped downward, so that the product on top of it falls automatically, completing the discharging.

[0034] A limiting groove 16 is provided on one side of the connecting hole 6 along its axial direction, and the length of the limiting groove 16 is the same as the depth of the connecting hole 6. The connecting hole 6 is provided for inserting the connecting post on the placement plate, while the limiting groove 16 is used to position the connecting post when it is inserted into the connecting hole 6, so that the bolt on the placement plate can be aligned with the fixing hole 3 on the mounting plate 5, thereby facilitating the quick fixing of the placement plate.

[0035] A storage groove for storing the baffle 4 is provided on the top surface of the mounting plate 5 away from the center of the mounting tray 2. When the mounting plate 5 is in a horizontal state, the top height of the baffle 4 is higher than the height of the top surface of the placement tray, thereby using the baffle 4 to block the product on the top surface of the placement tray and prevent it from falling off the top surface of the placement tray during the rotation of the mounting tray 2. When unloading, the baffle 4 is retracted into the storage groove so that the baffle 4 will not block the product from sliding down the placement tray.

[0036] The drive assembly includes an elastic airbag 19 installed in a storage slot and two air distribution components installed on the bottom surface of the mounting plate 5 for inflating and deflating the elastic airbag 19. The bottom surface of the mounting plate 5 has two fixing slots 22 for mounting the two air distribution components respectively. Two buffer holes 17 are provided at one end of the mounting plate 5 near the center of the mounting plate 2. The two buffer holes 17 are respectively positioned corresponding to the two fixing slots 22, and through holes are provided between the buffer holes 17 and the corresponding fixing slots 22. The air distribution component includes an air cylinder 21 fixed in the fixing slot 22 and a component disposed within the air cylinder 21. The piston plate and piston rod 18 are fixed to one side of the outer wall of the piston plate. One end of the air cylinder 21 is equipped with an air supply pipe 20, and the other end of the air supply pipe 20 extends into the receiving groove and communicates with the interior of the elastic air bag 19. The other end of the piston rod 18 extends through the through hole into the buffer hole 17 and abuts against the mounting groove 12. The end of the piston rod 18 that abuts against the mounting groove 12 has a hemispherical structure. A reset component for driving the piston rod 18 to move is installed on the outer periphery of the piston rod 18. The reset component includes a spring that is movably sleeved on the outer periphery of the piston rod 18 and a spring that is sleeved on the outer periphery of the piston rod 18. The spring clip and spring one are both located inside the buffer hole 17, with one end of spring one fixed to the inner wall of the buffer hole and the other end fixed to the spring clip. When the mounting plate 5 rotates to the unloading position, it drives the mounting plate 5 to flip downwards. During the downward flipping process, the gap between the end of the mounting plate 5 near the center of the mounting plate 2 and the mounting groove 12 gradually increases. At this time, the piston rod 18 will gradually extend outwards from the buffer hole 17 under the action of spring one, thereby driving the piston plate to move away from the air supply pipe 20, thus discharging the elastic gas... The air inside the bladder 19 is gradually drawn back into the air cylinder 21, and the elastic bladder 19 gradually contracts, thereby causing the baffle 4 to gradually descend and finally retract into the storage groove, so that the baffle 4 will not obstruct the product from sliding down. After the material is unloaded, when the mounting plate 5 flips up to return to its original position, the gap between the mounting plate 5 and the mounting groove 12 gradually decreases, thereby gradually squeezing the piston rod 18 towards the inside of the buffer hole 17. The air inside the air cylinder 21 is also forced into the elastic bladder 19. After the elastic bladder 19 is inflated, it expands, thereby causing the baffle 4 to move upward until it returns to its original position.

[0037] Example 2:

[0038] Combination Figure 2 - Figure 5This embodiment, based on embodiment 1, further improves upon the following: A transmission mechanism for driving the vertical rotation of the mounting plate 5 is installed on its bottom surface. The transmission mechanism includes a movable column 9 mounted on the outer periphery of the support column 10 via an elastic element, a connecting rod 8 hinged to the outer wall of the movable column 9, and an abutment ring 7 fixed to the base plate 1 for driving the movable column 9 to move vertically. The other end of the connecting rod 8 is hinged to the bottom surface of the mounting plate 5, and the bottom of the movable column 9 abuts against the top surface of the abutment ring 7. A groove 13 for mounting the elastic element is provided on the outer periphery of the support column 10. The groove 13 is arranged along the axial direction of the support column 10, and the elastic element includes components fixed along the length direction of the groove 13. The inner sleeve rod 14, the sliding sleeve 15 movably sleeved on the outer periphery of the sleeve rod 14, and the second spring. One end of the sliding sleeve 15 is fixedly connected to the outer periphery of the movable column 9, the top of the second spring is fixedly connected to the bottom of the sliding sleeve 15, and the bottom of the second spring is fixedly connected to the bottom of the sliding groove 13. When the mounting plate 5 is located outside the unloading position and is in a horizontal state, the movable column 9 is in an upward state, and the second spring is also in a compressed state. When the mounting plate 5 rotates to the unloading position, the force applied to the movable column 9 decreases, and the movable column 9 will automatically move down under the action of the second spring, thereby driving the mounting plate 5 connected to it to automatically flip downward, thus achieving the purpose of automatic unloading.

[0039] The abutment ring 7 includes a stable section 701 and a transition section 702. The transition section 702 includes a horizontal section and inclined sections at both ends of the horizontal section. One end of each of the two inclined sections is connected to both ends of the stable section 701. Both the stable section 701 and the horizontal section are parallel to the top surface of the base plate 1, and the stable section 701 is located above the horizontal section. The bottom of the movable column 9 has a hemispherical structure. When the bottom of the movable column 9 abuts against the top surface of the stable section, the movable column 9 is in an upward state. At this time, the mounting plate 5 is also in a horizontal state. As the movable column 9 rotates from the horizontal section 701 to the transition section 702 along with the rotation of the support column 10, The movable column 9 first passes through an inclined section. As it passes through this inclined section, the movable column 9 gradually slides down along the inclined section until it comes into contact with the top surface of the horizontal section. During this process, the mounting plate 5 will also gradually flip downward to complete the automatic unloading process. Afterward, as the support column 10 continues to rotate, the movable column 9 will gradually slide upward along another inclined section and move back to the top of the stable section 701. During this process, the movable column 9 will gradually move upward, thereby driving the mounting plate 5 to gradually flip upward until it returns to a horizontal state, thus achieving the purpose of automatic unloading during the rotation of the support column 10.

Any non-substantial changes and substitutions made by those skilled in the art based on the present invention shall fall within the scope of protection claimed by the present invention.
