Abstract

This utility model relates to the field of high-speed palletizing machine technology, specifically a precision positioning device for a high-speed palletizing machine. It includes a main body with a platform fixedly installed at the bottom. Through the positioning components, when the main body picks up material, it first causes a sliding shaft to contact the top of the material. When the sliding shaft contacts the material, the material resists the shaft, causing the sliding shaft and insert rod to move upwards. As the insert rod slides upwards, it causes a rotating shaft and threaded rod to rotate. When the threaded rod rotates, it causes a fixed frame to slide downwards, moving the fixed frame to the outside of the material. This prevents inaccurate placement of materials during palletizing, thus preventing palletizing offset and maintaining a relatively fixed posture and accurate spatial position. This ensures that materials can be accurately placed on predetermined pallet positions during palletizing, improving palletizing accuracy and reducing uneven or non-compliant palletizing caused by material position deviations.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of high-speed palletizing machine technology, specifically a precision positioning device for a high-speed palletizing machine. Background Technology

[0002] Palletizing machines play a crucial role in today's industrial production and logistics. With the booming development of manufacturing, warehousing, and other industries, the scale of product production is constantly expanding, and the demand for storage and transportation of goods is increasing. Palletizing machines, with their high efficiency and automation, can quickly and accurately stack various materials into pallets according to certain rules, greatly improving work efficiency and saving labor costs. Therefore, they have been widely used. Currently, there are many types of palletizing machines on the market, and the technology is constantly being updated and iterated. From traditional mechanical palletizing machines to today's intelligent palletizing machines that integrate advanced technologies such as automated control and sensor technology, there have been significant improvements in handling speed and load-bearing capacity.

[0003] However, when using existing high-speed palletizers, the palletizer needs to accurately place materials on predetermined stacking positions to form neat and standardized stacks. But during the process of picking up, transporting, and placing materials, due to the lack of precise and effective positioning devices, it is often difficult to ensure that the materials are always in the accurate spatial position. During high-speed handling, due to the inertia of the robotic arm, the change of the material's own center of gravity, and minor disturbances in the external environment, the material is prone to positional deviation, which leads to inaccurate placement during palletizing. Ultimately, this causes pallet offset, which greatly reduces the neatness of the pallet, and the stack shape does not meet the requirements, affecting subsequent storage and transportation and reducing work efficiency.

[0004] In view of this, we propose a precision positioning device for a high-speed palletizer. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a precise positioning device for a high-speed palletizer. This device solves the problem of material displacement during palletizing, which leads to inaccurate placement and significantly reduces the neatness of the palletizing, resulting in non-compliant pallet shapes.

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

[0007] A precision positioning device for a high-speed palletizer includes a main body, wherein a machine platform is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the main body;

[0008] It also includes positioning components for precise positioning of materials during the palletizing process;

[0009] Active components are used to prevent materials from tipping over during palletizing.

[0010] The positioning component includes: a fixing plate, which is fixedly installed at the bottom of the main body, a suction cup fixedly installed at the bottom of the fixing plate, a rotating shaft rotatably connected to the top of the fixing plate, a threaded rod fixedly installed at the bottom of the rotating shaft, a fixing frame threadedly connected to the surface of the threaded rod, and a telescopic rod fixedly installed on the outside of the fixing frame, the telescopic rod being fixedly installed at the bottom of the fixing plate.

[0011] Preferably, a fixed shaft is fixedly installed on the inner side of the fixed plate, a sliding shaft passes through the fixed shaft, one end of a plug rod is fixedly installed on the outer side of the sliding shaft, and the other end of the plug rod is slidably connected to the surface of the rotating shaft.

[0012] Preferably, a fixing spring is fixedly installed on the surface of the sliding shaft, and the fixing spring is fixedly installed at the top end of the fixing shaft.

[0013] Preferably, the movable component includes: a material plate, which is inserted into the machine tool, with casters fixedly installed at the bottom of the material plate and a connecting frame fixedly installed at the top of the material plate, and a protective frame slidably connected inside the connecting frame.

[0014] Preferably, a telescopic rod two is fixedly installed on the top of the connecting frame, a movable spring is fixedly installed on the surface of the telescopic rod two, a support plate is fixedly installed on the bottom of the telescopic rod two, a stacking platform is placed on the top of the support plate, a connecting plate is fixedly installed on the surface of the telescopic rod two, a movable plate is hinged to the outside of the connecting plate, a slider is hinged to the bottom of the movable plate, the slider is slidably connected inside the connecting frame, an abutment plate is fixedly installed on the outside of the slider, and the abutment plate is hinged to the inside of the protective frame.

[0015] Preferably, a limiting plate is hinged to the outer side of the material plate, and a spiral spring is fixedly installed on the surface of the limiting plate, with the spiral spring fixedly installed on the top of the material plate.

[0016] Preferably, the surface of the machine tool is provided with a groove, and the surface of the rotating shaft is provided with an arc-shaped groove.

[0017] By employing the above technical solution, this utility model provides a precise positioning device for a high-speed palletizing machine. It possesses at least the following beneficial effects:

[0018] (1) By setting up the positioning component, when the main body picks up the material, it will first drive the sliding shaft to contact the top of the material. When the sliding shaft contacts the material, the material will resist the sliding shaft, thereby driving the sliding shaft and the insert rod to move upward. When the insert rod slides upward, it will drive the rotating shaft and the threaded rod to rotate. When the threaded rod rotates, it will drive the fixed frame to slide downward, thereby moving the fixed frame to the outside of the material. This prevents the high-speed palletizer from placing the material in an inaccurate position when palletizing, thus preventing palletizing deviation. It maintains a relatively fixed posture and accurate spatial position, thereby ensuring that the material can be accurately placed on the predetermined pallet position during palletizing, improving the accuracy of palletizing, and reducing the phenomenon of uneven or non-compliant palletizing caused by material position deviation.

[0019] (2) Through the setting of the movable components, the materials are placed on the stacking platform when they are stacked. When there is too much material on the stacking platform, the telescopic rod II is retracted by gravity, and the connecting plate on the surface of the telescopic rod II slides down. When the connecting plate slides down, it will abut against the movable plate and the bottom hinged slider. When the slider slides, it will also push the abutting plate and drive the protective frame to move upward inside the connecting frame, thereby protecting the two sides of the stacked materials. It is equivalent to adding lateral support and enclosure to the material pile, which can effectively prevent the materials from spreading to the sides, avoid the accident of side overturning or collapse, and improve the stability and fixing effect of the stacking structure.

Detailed Implementation

[0028] 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.

[0029] Example 1

[0030] A precision positioning device for a high-speed palletizer, such as Figures 1-3 As shown, it includes a main body 1, and an organic platform 2 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the main body 1;

[0031] It also includes a positioning component 3, which is used for precise positioning of materials during the palletizing process;

[0032] Activity component 4 is used to protect materials from tipping over during palletizing;

[0033] First, the positioning component 3 includes: a fixing plate 31, which is fixedly installed at the bottom of the main body 1. A suction cup 32 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the fixing plate 31. A rotating shaft 33 is rotatably connected to the top of the fixing plate 31. A threaded rod 34 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the rotating shaft 33. A fixing frame 35 is threadedly connected to the surface of the threaded rod 34. A telescopic rod 36 is fixedly installed on the outside of the fixing frame 35. The telescopic rod 36 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the fixing plate 31. By rotating the threaded rod 34, the fixing frame 35 can be driven to slide downward and move to the outside of the material for restriction.

[0034] Secondly, a fixed shaft 37 is fixedly installed on the inner side of the fixed plate 31. A sliding shaft 38 passes through the fixed shaft 37. One end of a plug rod 39 is fixedly installed on the outer side of the sliding shaft 38. The other end of the plug rod 39 is slidably connected to the surface of the rotating shaft 33. The rotating shaft 33 can be driven to rotate by sliding the plug rod 39 on the surface of the rotating shaft 33.

[0035] Furthermore, a fixing spring 310 is fixedly installed on the surface of the slide shaft 38. The fixing spring 310 is fixedly installed on the top of the fixing shaft 37. The fixing spring 310 on the surface of the slide shaft 38 can achieve the effect of resetting the slide shaft 38 after use.

[0036] In this embodiment, with the positioning component 3, when the main body 1 picks up the material, it first causes the sliding shaft 38 to contact the top of the material. When the sliding shaft 38 contacts the material, the material will resist the sliding shaft 38, thereby causing the sliding shaft 38 and the insertion rod 39 to move upward. When the insertion rod 39 slides upward, it will cause the rotating shaft 33 and the threaded rod 34 to rotate. When the threaded rod 34 rotates, it will cause the fixed frame 35 to slide downward, thereby moving the fixed frame 35 to the outside of the material. This prevents the high-speed palletizer from placing the material in an inaccurate position during palletizing, thus preventing palletizing offset. It maintains a relatively fixed posture and accurate spatial position, thereby ensuring that the material can be accurately placed on the predetermined pallet position during palletizing, improving the accuracy of palletizing, and reducing the phenomenon of uneven or non-compliant palletizing caused by material position deviation.

[0037] Example 2

[0038] like Figures 4-6 As shown, the active component 4 includes: a material plate 41, which is inserted into the machine base 2. A caster wheel 42 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the material plate 41, and a connecting frame 43 is fixedly installed at the top of the material plate 41. A protective frame 44 is slidably connected inside the connecting frame 43.

[0039] Furthermore, a telescopic rod 45 is fixedly installed on the top of the connecting frame 43, a movable spring 46 is fixedly installed on the surface of the telescopic rod 45, a support plate 47 is fixedly installed on the bottom of the telescopic rod 45, a stacking platform 48 is placed on the top of the support plate 47, a connecting plate 49 is fixedly installed on the surface of the telescopic rod 45, a movable plate 410 is hinged to the outside of the connecting plate 49, a slider 411 is hinged to the bottom of the movable plate 410, the slider 411 is slidably connected inside the connecting frame 43, an abutment plate 412 is fixedly installed on the outside of the slider 411, the abutment plate 412 is hinged to the inside of the protective frame 44, and the abutment plate 412 can slide upward and abut against the protective frame 44 through the abutment plate 412, thereby driving the protective frame 44 to slide upward inside the connecting frame 43.

[0040] Furthermore, a limiting plate 413 is hinged to the outside of the material plate 41, and a spiral spring 414 is fixedly installed on the surface of the limiting plate 413. The spiral spring 414 is fixedly installed on the top of the material plate 41. The spiral spring 414 on the surface of the limiting plate 413 can achieve a stable effect when the limiting plate 413 is inserted into the machine base 2.

[0041] Finally, a groove 20 is provided on the surface of the machine base 2, which allows the limiting plate 413 to be inserted into the machine base 2 for restriction. An arc groove 330 is provided on the surface of the rotating shaft 33, which allows the rotating shaft 33 to rotate when the insertion rod 39 slides.

[0042] In this embodiment, through the setting of the movable component 4, when the material is stacked, it will be placed on the stacking platform 48. When too much material is piled up on the stacking platform 48, the telescopic rod 45 will retract due to gravity, and the connecting plate 49 on the surface of the telescopic rod 45 will slide downward. When the connecting plate 49 slides downward, it will abut against the movable plate 410 and the bottom hinged slider 411. When the slider 411 slides, it will also push the abutment plate 412 and drive the protective frame 44 to move upward inside the connecting frame 43, thereby protecting the two sides of the stacked material. It is equivalent to adding lateral support and enclosure to the material pile, which can effectively prevent the material from scattering to both sides, avoid the accident of tipping over or collapsing, and improve the stability and fixing effect of the stacking structure.

[0043] The high-speed palletizer precision positioning device of this utility model can pick up or place materials using the suction cup 32 at the bottom of the main body 1. When the main body 1 picks up materials using the suction cup 32, the downward-moving suction cup 32 first drives the sliding shaft 38 to contact the top of the material. When the sliding shaft 38 contacts, the material will resist the sliding shaft 38, thereby driving the sliding shaft 38 to slide upward inside the fixed shaft 37, and driving the insertion rod 39 on its surface to move upward. When the insertion rod 39 slides upward, it will slide at the arc-shaped groove 330 opened on the surface of the rotating shaft 33. When the insertion rod 39 slides, it will drive the rotating shaft 33 to rotate on the top of the fixed plate 31. When the machine moves, it drives the threaded rod 34 at the bottom to rotate. When the threaded rod 34 rotates, it drives the fixed frame 35 to slide downward, thereby moving the fixed frame 35 to the outside of the material. This prevents the high-speed palletizer from misplacing the material during palletizing due to inaccurate placement. The fixed frame 35 moving to the outside of the material can provide a stable limiting effect on the material, ensuring that the material maintains a relatively fixed posture and accurate spatial position throughout the entire transportation and movement process from the initial pick-up position to the final palletizing position. This ensures that the material can be accurately placed on the predetermined pallet position during palletizing, improving the accuracy of palletizing and reducing the phenomenon of uneven or non-compliant palletizing caused by material position deviation.

[0044] When materials are stacked, they are placed on the stacking platform 48. When too much material is piled up on the stacking platform 48, the telescopic rod 45 is retracted by gravity. When the telescopic rod 45 retracts, it causes the connecting plate 49 to slide downward. When the connecting plate 49 slides downward, it abuts against the movable plate 410 and the bottom hinged slider 411, moving closer to the inner wall of the connecting frame 43. When the slider 411 slides, it also pushes the abutment plate 412 and causes the protective frame 44 to move upward inside the connecting frame 43, thereby protecting the sides of the stacked material. When too much material is piled up on the stacking platform 48, the stability of the overall structure will deteriorate, and the material is prone to tilting or overturning to the sides, which may even cause the entire stack to collapse. After the protective frame 44 moves upward inside the connecting frame 43, it protects the sides of the stacked material, which is equivalent to adding lateral support and enclosure to the material stack. It can effectively prevent the material from scattering to the sides, avoid overturning or collapse accidents, and improve the stability and fixation effect of the stacking structure. Once the materials are stacked, the material plate 41 can be manually pulled to move the limiting plate 413 out of the machine table 2, making the materials piled on top of the material plate 41 easier to transport later.
