Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automated packaging and conveying technology, specifically to a robotic palletizing integrated packaging and conveying device. Background Technology

[0002] Automated packaging and conveying is a modern production system that integrates mechanical design, automated control and intelligent monitoring technology. It aims to achieve efficient and precise operation throughout the entire product packaging process. It completes the entire production chain from material supply, packaging container handling, quantitative filling, sealing and packaging to finished product palletizing and conveying out of the warehouse through a series of interconnected automated equipment and processes.

[0003] Automated packaging and conveying systems typically include conveyor belts, elevators, sorting machines, packaging machines, carton sealing machines, labeling machines, palletizing robots, and other equipment. These devices work in coordination through a precise control system to ensure the continuity and stability of the production line. In addition, the system can be flexibly configured and adjusted according to production needs to adapt to different specifications and types of product packaging.

[0004] Currently, the bin-splitting process relies on manual operation. However, manual operation can lead to inconsistent bin spacing due to differences in operation, resulting in insufficient coordination between palletizing and conveying processes. This results in low palletizing accuracy and easy damage to the bins due to collisions. It is difficult to guarantee the effect of full-process automation from bin splitting and conveying to palletizing, which restricts the progress of digital factory construction. Therefore, a robotic palletizing integrated packaging and conveying device is proposed to address the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a robotic palletizing integrated packaging and conveying device to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0007] A robotic palletizing integrated packaging and conveying device includes a frame on which a robotic palletizing assembly is mounted. A conveyor belt assembly is located at the front of the frame, and a conveying assembly is located at the rear of the frame.

[0023] 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.

[0024] It should be noted that the terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to limit the exemplary embodiments according to this application. As used herein, the singular form is intended to include the plural form as well, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. Furthermore, it should be understood that when the terms "comprising" and / or "including" are used in this specification, they indicate the presence of features, steps, operations, devices, components, and / or combinations thereof.

[0025] Please see Figures 1-6 This utility model provides a technical solution:

[0026] A robotic palletizing integrated packaging and conveying device includes a frame 1, a robotic palletizing assembly 2 mounted on the frame 1, a conveyor belt assembly 3 on the front side of the frame 1, a conveying assembly 4 on the rear side of the frame 1, a bin-separating assembly 5 on the front side of the conveyor belt assembly 3, the bin-separating assembly 5 including a support frame 51 located below and with its bottom flush with the bottom of the frame 1, a support plate 52 above the support frame 51, the rear end of the support plate 52 being fixedly connected to the front end of the conveyor belt assembly 3, a grooved wheel 53 on the front side above the support plate 52, an intermittent transmission member 54 on the rear side above the support plate 52, an intermittent follower 55 above the intermittent transmission member 54, a bin-separating structure 58 on the intermittent follower 55, the intermittent transmission member 54 being at the same height and corresponding in position to the grooved wheel 53, and the bottom center of the intermittent transmission member 54 being rotatably connected to the top rear side of the support plate 52.

[0027] It should be noted that: the frame 1 is welded from 304 stainless steel profiles, the surface of the frame is treated with anti-corrosion, and the bottom is fixed to the ground with expansion bolts to ensure that the equipment does not shake when running at high speed, providing a stable support foundation for core components such as robot palletizing component 2 and conveyor belt component 3;

[0028] The robot palletizing component 2 integrates an industrial robot, which can complete palletizing according to a preset mode and link with the conveying component 4 to realize the automatic transfer of the pallet;

[0029] The conveyor belt assembly 3 adopts a frequency conversion speed regulation synchronous belt conveyor structure, which is compatible with different diameters of 1L-10L open iron drums to 200L iron drums. The synchronous belt surface is covered with a nitrile rubber anti-slip layer to prevent the drum body from slipping during conveying. The conveying speed is adjustable from 0-60m / min, which is compatible with the production speed of 1000-1200 drums / hour of the filling line.

[0030] The conveying component 4 is composed of a roller conveyor and a chain conveyor. It is adapted to the size of the pallet and the conveying direction is perpendicular to the robot palletizing component 2. It can transport the finished palletized pallet to the wrapping and packaging unit to realize the continuous operation of "palletizing-conveying-packaging".

[0031] As a further implementation of this solution, a drive motor 56 is fixedly installed at the top center of the support frame 51, and a transmission shaft 57 is fixedly connected to the output end of the drive motor 56. The top end of the transmission shaft 57 passes through the support plate 52 and is fixedly connected to the bottom center of the grooved wheel 53.

[0032] It should be noted that: the support frame 51 adopts a square steel welded structure, the top is bolted to the support plate 52, the bottom is flush with the bottom of the frame 1 and reinforced by reinforcing ribs to ensure the structural stability of the bucket separating assembly 5 during high-speed bucket separating; the surface of the support plate 52 is milled flat to provide a horizontal reference for the grooved wheel 53 and the intermittent transmission component 54, ensuring the accuracy of intermittent transmission.

[0033] Furthermore: the drive motor 56 is a servo motor that supports frequency conversion speed regulation. It provides power to the grooved wheel 53 through the transmission shaft 57. The speed can be adjusted in real time according to the speed requirements of the production line of 1000-1200 barrels / hour. The transmission shaft 57 is made of 40Cr material and is chrome-plated for rust prevention. Both ends are connected to the support plate 52 through bearing seats to ensure that the power of the drive motor 56 is stably transmitted to the grooved wheel 53.

[0034] As a further implementation of this scheme, both the intermittent transmission component 54 and the intermittent driven component 55 are configured in a three-arm fork shape. The three fork arms are evenly distributed circumferentially at an included angle of 120°. The three fork arms extend outward from the center and are long strips. The three fork arms of the intermittent transmission component 54 and the intermittent driven component 55 extend in the same direction and are arranged side by side in the circumferential direction. The projections of the fork arms completely overlap. A connecting shaft for synchronous rotation is fixedly connected at the center between the intermittent transmission component 54 and the intermittent driven component 55.

[0035] It should be noted that the three-arm fork structure of the intermittent transmission component 54 and the intermittent driven component 55 is forged from high-strength aluminum alloy, and their circumferential parallel distribution ensures the stable separation of the barrels by the barrel-dividing structure 58, guaranteeing the consistency of barrel division;

[0036] As a further implementation of this solution, a drive half-ring 531 is integrally formed on the outer side of the groove of the groove wheel 53. The drive half-ring 531 and the fork arm of the intermittent transmission component 54 are positioned and matched in specifications. The inner arc surface of the drive half-ring 531 is attached with an arc-shaped soft pad by Velcro.

[0037] It should be noted that the arc-shaped soft pad on the inner arc surface of the drive half-ring 531 can be easily replaced with Velcro. When it comes into contact with the fork arm of the intermittent transmission component 54, it can buffer the impact force and prevent the fork arm from being deformed or damaged due to contact and collision.

[0038] As a further implementation of this solution, the bucket-dividing structure 58 includes three bucket-dividing stops 581. One end of the bucket-dividing stops 581 is embedded in the top outer end of each fork arm of the intermittent follower 55, and the bucket-dividing stops 581 are threadedly connected to the outer end of each fork arm of the intermittent follower 55 by mounting bolts 582. The end of the bucket-dividing stops 581 away from the intermittent follower 55 extends to the top of the conveyor belt assembly 3.

[0039] It should be noted that the bucket divider 581 is made of wear-resistant and lightweight nylon material, and can be easily installed and removed by mounting bolts 582. Its end extends to the top of the conveyor belt assembly 3 to form a dividing channel to ensure orderly conveying of single buckets.

[0040] As a further implementation of this solution, protective pads 583 are symmetrically provided on both sides of the dividing block 581, and the two side walls of the dividing block 581 are symmetrically provided with embedding grooves 584 that are adapted to the protective pads 583. A first magnetic strip 585 is installed on the inner wall of the embedding groove 584, and a second magnetic strip 586 is installed on one side of the protective pad 583. The first magnetic strip 585 and the second magnetic strip 586 are set with opposite magnetic poles that are corresponding in position and matched in specifications.

[0041] It should be noted that the protective pad 583 is made of polyurethane and is quickly embedded in both sides of the bucket divider 581 through the embedding groove 584. It is magnetically attracted by the first magnetic strip 585 and the second magnetic strip 586 with opposite magnetic poles, which can buffer the collision between the bucket and the bucket divider 581. At the same time, the connection method of the magnetic strips makes it easy to replace them quickly after wear, ensuring the protective effect on the bucket.

[0042] Workflow: After the device is started, the barrels are manually placed on the conveyor belt assembly 3 for transport. Before reaching the palletizing area of ​​the robot palletizing assembly 2, the barrels pass through the working area of ​​the barrel-separating assembly 5. The drive motor 56 on the top of the support frame 51 starts, driving the grooved wheel 53 to rotate via the transmission shaft 57. The drive half-ring 531 of the grooved wheel 53 contacts the fork arm of the intermittent transmission component 54. This fork arm enters the groove of the grooved wheel 53 and drives the fork arm to rotate. Since the intermittent transmission component 54 and the intermittent driven component 55 are three-armed forks and rotate synchronously via the connecting shaft, the intermittent driven component 55 rotates accordingly. The barrel-splitting structure 58 on the intermittent follower 55 rotates 120° intermittently, and the three barrel-splitting baffles 581 separate the barrels with irregular spacing, allowing the barrels to pass through in a regular sequence. This ensures that the subsequent robot palletizing assembly 2 can guarantee that the palletizing accuracy is not affected by the irregular spacing of the barrels. The protective pad 583 adheres to the barrel through the adsorption of the first magnetic strip 585 and the second magnetic strip 586, preventing collision damage between the barrel-splitting baffles 581 and the barrel. The separated barrels are then transported to the palletizing range of the robot palletizing assembly 2 via the conveyor belt assembly 3.

[0043] The robot palletizing component 2 grabs the buckets according to the preset palletizing pattern and accurately places them on the palletizing plate on the conveying component 4 at the rear of the frame 1. When a stack of buckets is completed, the conveying component 4 starts to transport the stacked buckets to the next stage. At the same time, new pallets are replenished to the palletizing station through the conveying component 4. The entire process runs in a cycle, realizing automated continuous operation from bucket sorting, conveying to palletizing.

[0044] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
