[0025] Please see Figures 1 to 8A stable case packing machine includes a worktable 10, a first conveying assembly 20 mounted on the worktable 10 for conveying empty cases, a second conveying assembly 30 for conveying items to be packed, a storage assembly 30 for conveying and storing items to be packed, a first transfer robot 40 for transferring items to be packed from the second conveying assembly 30 to the storage assembly 30, a second transfer robot 50 for transferring items to be packed from the storage assembly 30 to the empty cases in the first conveying assembly 20, and a third conveying assembly 60 mounted on both sides of the first conveying assembly 20 for abutting against the sides of the empty cases located on the first conveying assembly 20 and driving the empty cases to move along the conveying direction of the first conveying assembly 20.
[0026] During operation, items to be packed are conveyed via the second conveying assembly 30, and then transferred to the storage assembly 30 via the first robotic arm assembly for transfer. Meanwhile, empty boxes are conveyed via the first conveying assembly 20. As the empty boxes move along the first conveying assembly 20, the third conveying assembly 60 abuts against both sides of the empty boxes and synchronously drives the sides of the empty boxes to move along the conveying direction of the first conveying assembly 20, thus improving both the efficiency and stability of empty box transfer. When the empty boxes reach the preset position, the second transfer robotic arm 50 transfers the items to be packed from the storage assembly 30 into the empty boxes located on the first conveying assembly 20. At this time, the third conveying assembly 60 abuts against both sides of the empty boxes, ensuring the stability of the empty boxes during packing. After packing is complete, the first conveying assembly 20, in conjunction with the third conveying assembly 60, conveys the empty boxes to the next process step.
[0027] The present invention relates to a stable box packing machine, which, through the arrangement of a first conveying component 20, a second conveying component 30, a third conveying component 60, a first transfer robot 40, and a second transfer robot 50, achieves high box packing efficiency and can stably and efficiently transfer empty boxes, making it suitable for industrial applications.
[0028] In one specific embodiment, the first conveying assembly 20 includes a first conveyor belt 201 for conveying empty boxes. Specifically, during operation, empty boxes are placed on the first conveyor belt 201, and the rotation of the first conveyor belt 201 transports the empty boxes to a preset position. Specifically, the two ends of the first conveyor belt 201 are connected to first drive shafts, one end of which is connected to a first motor 202; during operation, the first motor 202 drives the connected first drive shaft, which in turn, in conjunction with the other first drive shaft, drives the first conveyor belt 201 to rotate. The third conveying assembly 60 includes sliding tables 601 mounted on both sides of the first conveyor belt 201, a second conveyor belt 602 vertically mounted above the sliding tables 601, and a drive unit connected to the two sliding tables 601 for driving the two sliding tables 601 to move closer or further apart. Specifically, during operation, empty boxes are conveyed via the first conveyor belt 201. Meanwhile, the second conveyor belt 602 is rotating, maintaining the same rotation frequency and direction as the first conveyor belt 201. The drive unit then drives the two sliding tables 601 to move closer together, making contact with the sides of the empty boxes. This allows the first and second conveyor belts 201 and 602 to work together to stably and efficiently convey the empty boxes to the packing station. During packing, the first and second conveyor belts 201 and 602 stop rotating. After packing is complete, the first and second conveyor belts continue to work together to transport the packed boxes out. In this embodiment, the coordinated operation of the first and second conveyor belts 201 and 602 enables a stable and efficient completion of the packing process. Specifically, in this embodiment, the second conveyor belt 602 is provided with second drive shafts 603 at both ends, one end of which is connected to a second motor 604. During operation, the second motor 604 drives the connected second drive shaft 603 to rotate, which in turn cooperates with the other second drive shaft 603 to drive the second conveyor belt 602 to rotate. Furthermore, during operation, the first motor 202 and the second motor 604 operate at the same frequency, thereby ensuring that the first conveyor belt 201 and the second conveyor belt 602 work synchronously and in an orderly manner. The drive unit includes a slide rail 605, a transmission rod 606, a transmission screw 607, and a third motor 608. The slide rail 605 is installed below the sliding table 601 and is slidably connected to the sliding table 601 for moving the sliding table 601 toward the first conveyor belt 201. The transmission rod 606 is installed at the bottom of the sliding table 601 and extends into the worktable 10. The transmission screw 607 is installed in the worktable 10 and is connected to the two transmission rods 606 for driving the two transmission rods 606 to move closer or further apart when rotating. The third motor 608 is connected to the transmission screw 607 for driving the transmission screw 607 to rotate.Specifically, in this embodiment, the transmission screw 607 has two opposite threaded sections, and the bottoms of the two transmission rods 606 are respectively connected to these two opposite threaded sections. The worktable 10 is provided with clearance grooves for the movement of the transmission rods 606. During operation, the third motor 608 drives the transmission screw 607 to rotate. Due to the arrangement of the two opposite threaded sections, the two transmission rods 606 are driven to move closer or further away from each other as needed when the transmission screw 607 rotates, thereby driving the two sliding tables 601 to move closer to or away from the empty box as needed. The first conveyor belt 201 and the second conveyor belt are both provided with anti-slip strips (not shown in the figure) at equal intervals on their surfaces. In this embodiment, the anti-slip strips further stabilize the movement of the empty box.
[0029] In one specific embodiment, the storage assembly 30 includes a holding platform 301 for holding items to be packed, a pressure plate 302 installed on the upper side of the holding platform 301, and a pressing cylinder 303 connected to the pressure plate 302 for driving the pressure plate 302 to move on the holding platform 301. Specifically, in this embodiment, a holding trough for loading items to be packed is provided above the holding platform 301; the pressure plate 302 is located on one side of the holding trough. During operation, the items are transferred from the first conveying assembly 20 to the holding trough under the drive of the first material handling robot 40. At this time, the pressing cylinder 303 drives the pressure plate 302 to move and presses the items to be packed into the holding trough.
[0030] In one specific embodiment, the first material handling robot 40 includes a column 401 mounted on the output end of the first conveying assembly 20, a first linear module 402 horizontally mounted on the column 401, a second linear module 403 mounted on the first linear module 402 for horizontal movement under the drive of the first linear module 402, a rotary module mounted on the second linear module 403 for vertical lifting under the drive of the second linear module 403, and a material gripping module connected to the rotary module for rotation under the drive of the rotary module. Specifically, in this embodiment, the first linear module 402 and the second linear module 403 are vertically arranged, which are used to drive the rotary module and the gripping module to move horizontally and vertically at the output end of the first conveying component 20. The rotary module is a rotary cylinder 404, and the gripping module includes a connecting plate 405 connected to the rotary cylinder 404, and a plurality of vacuum suction cups 406 mounted on the connecting plate 405 for picking up items to be packed. During operation, the vacuum suction cups 406 connected to the connecting plate 405 move along multiple axes as needed under the drive of the first linear module 402, the second linear module 403, and the rotary module, thereby moving the items to be packed from the first conveying component 20 to the storage component 30. Specifically, the second material handling robot 50 is a palletizing robot.
[0031] In one specific embodiment, a spreading component 70 for spreading open the opening of an empty box is provided above the first conveying component 20. In this embodiment, the spreading component 70 facilitates the second material handling robot 50 to transfer the items to be packed from the storage component 30 into the empty box. Further, the spreading component 70 includes a horizontal crossbeam 701 installed above the first conveying component 20, a first lifting cylinder 702 installed below the horizontal crossbeam 701, a first moving plate 703 connected to the first lifting cylinder 702 and used for vertical movement relative to the horizontal crossbeam 701 under the drive of the first lifting cylinder 702, a second lifting cylinder 704 installed on the first moving plate 703, a second moving plate 705 connected to the second lifting cylinder 704 and used for vertical lifting relative to the first moving plate 703 under the drive of the second lifting cylinder 704, and a second moving plate 705 installed on the first moving plate 703. The first square frame 706 on one side of the movable plate 703, the second square frame 707 installed below the first square frame 706 and connected to one side of the second movable plate 705, the upper part of the first square frame 706 rotatably installed on the side of the first square frame 706 and the inner side of the first square frame 707 abutting against the inner side of the second square frame 707, and the connecting strip 709 installed on the supporting plate 708 abutting against the side of the second square frame 707; wherein, both ends of the connecting strip 709 are connected to the supporting plate 708 and form a through hole for the side of the second square frame 707 to pass through; the length of the second square frame 707 is smaller than that of the first square frame 706. Specifically, in this embodiment, when the empty box moves below the first frame 706 and the second frame 707, the first lifting cylinder 702 operates, thereby driving the first moving plate 703 and the second moving plate 705 to move downwards synchronously, so that the supporting plate 708 falls into the opening of the empty box. At this time, the second lifting cylinder 704 operates, thereby driving the second moving plate 705 to move downwards relative to the first moving plate 703, thereby driving the second frame 707 to move downwards relative to the first frame 706. Since the second frame 707 is smaller than the first frame 706, the second frame 707, through the through hole, drives the supporting plate 708 to rotate outwards relative to the side of the first frame 706 during its downward movement, thus opening the opening of the empty box, thereby facilitating the stable loading process of the second mobile robot. Specifically, the centers of the first frame 706 and the second frame 707 are on the same vertical axis, and the length and width of the second frame 707 are both smaller than those of the first frame 706.
[0032] The present invention relates to a stable box packing machine, which, through the arrangement of a first conveying component 20, a second conveying component 30, a third conveying component 60, a first transfer robot 40, and a second transfer robot 50, achieves high box packing efficiency and can stably and efficiently transfer empty boxes, making it suitable for industrial applications.
[0033] The above embodiments only illustrate several implementation methods of this utility model, and their descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of this utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
