[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0025] Please see Figure 1-9In this embodiment of the present invention, an automatic material placement, film application, and packaging equipment for injection molding includes a frame 1. One side of the frame 1 is provided with a feeding conveyor line 14 for transferring materials from the outside to the inside. Above the feeding conveyor line 14 is a first conveying mechanism for adsorbing and transporting the materials conveyed on its surface. On the other side of the feeding conveyor line 14 is a support platform (not shown in the figure) for guiding the film material to be laid flat. Film material conveying mechanisms are movably arranged on the upper and lower surfaces of the support platform. One side of the support platform is provided with a film pulling mechanism for pulling the film material. The film cutting mechanism cuts the film material, the second handling mechanism clamps and transports the material wrapped in the film material, and the frame 1 is provided with a stacking and packing rack 11 for storing and packing the material transported by the second handling mechanism. On one side of the pusher box 11, there is a cardboard lifting support platform 7 with multiple cardboard stacks. The pusher box 11 is also provided with a cardboard suction mechanism for adsorbing and transporting the cardboard carried on the cardboard lifting support platform 7. The cardboard suction mechanism transports the adsorbed cardboard into the pusher box 11 and places the material inside the pusher box 11 in separate layers.

[0026] Therefore, its working principle is as follows:

[0027] The feeding conveyor 14 transports the material to be laminated to the inside of the frame 1. The film material transfer mechanism located below the support platform lays the film material flat on the support platform. The first handling mechanism picks up and transports the material above the feeding conveyor 14 to the support platform and places it on the film material. The film material transfer mechanism located above the support platform also lays the film material flat on the support platform and covers the material, so that the material is wrapped on both the top and bottom sides. At this time, the film pulling mechanism clamps and pulls the film material on both the top and bottom sides of the material, so that the film material and the material pass through the film cutting mechanism and are pulled to the bottom of the second handling mechanism. At this time, the second handling mechanism grabs and tightens the film material wrapped with the material, and at the same time cuts off the excess film material through the film cutting mechanism, so that the second handling mechanism can transport the film material wrapped with the material to the inside of the stacking and packing rack 11. The second handling mechanism is then reset, and the cardboard suction mechanism picks up and transports the cardboard to the inside of the stacking and packing rack 11 and stacks the cardboard on top of the film material wrapped with the material, so that the material can be stored in layers inside the pusher and packing rack 11.

[0028] The first conveying mechanism includes a first linear transmission module 2 disposed at the top of the support frame 1, a first sliding table 3 slidably disposed at the bottom of the first linear transmission module 2, and a second connecting frame 17 that moves synchronously with the first sliding table 3. Movable frames 18 are vertically movable on both sides of the second connecting frame 17, and a connecting plate 19 is disposed at the bottom of the movable frame 18. A hollow stepper motor 20 is disposed on one side of the connecting plate 19, and a second suction cup 21 for adsorbing materials is driven at the bottom of the hollow stepper motor 20. This allows the material to be conveyed via the first linear transmission module 1. The linear drive module 2 and the first sliding table 3 slide together, and the first sliding table 3, together with the second connecting frame 17, moves to above the feeding conveyor line 14. The moving frames 18 on both sides of the second connecting frame 17, together with the second suction cups 21, move downward. The material on the feeding conveyor line 14 is adsorbed by the second suction cups 21, and then the adsorbed material is transported to the support platform and placed on the film material laid flat on the support platform through the sliding cooperation between the first linear drive module 2 and the first sliding table 3. Then it is reset and waits for the adsorption and transportation of the next batch of material.

[0029] The second conveying mechanism includes a second linear transmission module 4 disposed at the top of the support frame 1, a movable frame 5 slidably disposed at the bottom of the second linear transmission module 4, and a first connecting frame 6 that moves synchronously with the movable frame 5. A third cylinder 30 is vertically disposed at both the front and rear ends of the bottom of the first connecting frame 6, and a pressure plate 26 is driven and connected to the bottom of the third cylinder 30. The pressure plate 26 is horizontally mounted at the bottom of the first connecting frame 6. A crossbeam 23 is horizontally disposed at both the front and rear ends of the top of the first connecting frame 6, and a drive shaft 28 is horizontally rotatably disposed between the crossbeams 23. The drive shaft 28 drives and connects to a needle-punching swing frame 27, and a needle 29 that swings synchronously with the needle-punching swing frame 27 is vertically disposed at the bottom of the needle-punching swing frame 27. A swing cylinder 24 is disposed at both ends of the top of the first connecting frame 6, and the swing cylinders 24 are all disposed on the 23. The swing cylinders 24 drive and connect to the swing cylinder 27. The arm 25 and the swing arm 25 are driven to the drive shaft 28, and then move to the top of the film material wrapping the material through the sliding cooperation between the second linear transmission module 4 and the moving frame 5. At this time, the moving frame 5 and the first connecting frame 6 move downward and the needle swing frame 27 and the needles 29 pierce the film material wrapping the material on both sides. After the needles 29 are inserted, the swing cylinder 24 drives the swing arm 25 and the drive shaft to deflect, so that the needle swing frame 27 and the needles 29 swing on both sides of the film material outside and tighten the film material. Then the moving frame 5 and the film material wrapping the material descend into the pusher box 11. After being placed in the pusher box 11, the needles 29 are straightened and reset. At the same time, the third cylinder 30 drives the pressure plate 26 to move downward and press the film material and the material downward, so that the film material and the needles 29 are separated and the film material and the material are stacked in the pusher box 11.

[0030] The film stretching mechanism includes a fourth linear transmission module 32 disposed inside the frame 1, a third sliding stage 10 slidably disposed on the fourth linear transmission module 32, and a pneumatic gripper 31 that moves synchronously with the top of the third sliding stage 10. Through the sliding engagement between the third sliding stage 10 and the pneumatic gripper 31, the pneumatic gripper 31 is moved to one side of the support platform to clamp the film material. Then, through the sliding engagement between the third sliding stage 10 and the pneumatic gripper 31, the pneumatic gripper 31 and the film material are stretched, so that the film material can be horizontally placed below the second conveying mechanism.

[0031] The film cutting mechanism includes a transverse cylinder 33 mounted horizontally on one side of the top of the support platform. A cutter 34 is vertically connected to one side of the transverse cylinder 33. A support module 36 for supporting the film material is also provided on one side of the support platform, with a fourth cylinder 37 at each end of the support module 36. A fifth cylinder 38 is provided on one side of the fourth cylinder 37. A pressure rod 35 is driven at the top of both the fourth cylinder 37 and the fifth cylinder 38, and the pressure rod 35 is parallel to the support module 36. The film material passes between the pressure rod 35 and the support module 36, so that when the film material passes between the pressure rod 35 and the support module 36, the two cylinders simultaneously press the film material. At the same time as the film material is pressed, the lateral movement cylinder 33 drives the cutter 34 to move laterally to cut the film. Then the fifth cylinder 38 lifts up to release the cut film material, and the fourth cylinder 37 continues to press until the pneumatic gripper 31 on the film pulling mechanism comes over to clamp it before releasing it. The support module 36 can be moved and locked to the side of the support platform according to the size of the film width, so as to flexibly adapt to different film widths.

[0032] The cardboard suction mechanism includes a third linear transmission module 15 horizontally mounted above the pusher box 11, and a second sliding table 8 slidably disposed below the third linear transmission module 15. A first cylinder 16 is disposed on one side of the second sliding table 8 and moves synchronously therewith. The bottom end of the first cylinder 16 drives a first suction cup 9 to adsorb the cardboard stacked on the cardboard lifting support platform 7. Then, through the sliding cooperation between the second sliding table 8 and the third linear transmission module 15, the first suction cup 9 is moved to the cardboard lifting support platform 7. The first cylinder 16 then drives the first suction cup 9 to adsorb the cardboard on the cardboard lifting support platform 7. Then, through the sliding cooperation between the second sliding table 8 and the third linear transmission module 15, the adsorbed cardboard is transported into the pusher box 11 and stacked on top of the material wrapped between the film materials, so that the material inside the pusher box 11 can be stacked in layers.

[0033] The membrane material transfer mechanism includes a first membrane roll 12 and a second membrane roll 13 movably disposed on the upper and lower sides of the support platform, and a traction frame (not shown in the figure) for pulling the membrane material of the first membrane roll 12 and the second membrane roll 13. The first membrane roll 12 and the second membrane roll 13 are respectively rolled and fed into the frame 1 so that the membrane material can be pulled to the top of the support platform by the traction frame.

[0034] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered exemplary and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description.
