[0023] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0024] It should be noted that, in this document, relational terms such as "first" and "second" are used merely to distinguish one entity or operation from another, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. In this document, the terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such a process, method, article, or apparatus. Without further limitations, an element defined by the phrase "comprising one..." does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, article, or apparatus that includes that element.

[0025] The inventors of this solution discovered that in existing technologies, the separation process involves manual labor in conjunction with forklifts or cranes. However, manual operation with forklifts or cranes poses safety risks, occupies a large space, and is inefficient and costly. This embodiment provides the following solution:

[0026] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, this embodiment provides a material pallet removal device, including a material box 1 and a rotating mechanism 2 disposed on both sides of the material box 1. The rotating end of the rotating mechanism 2 is connected to the material box 1. The material box 1 is provided with a pressing mechanism 3, a material conveying mechanism 4, and a fork assembly 6 for picking up the pallet 5. The pressing mechanism 3 is located above the material box 1, the material conveying mechanism 4 is located below the material box 1, and the fork assembly 6 is located above the material conveying mechanism 4.

[0027] It should be noted that material 7 is placed on pallet 5 and conveyed to material box 1 via material transfer mechanism 4 through external conveying equipment. At this time, fork assembly 6 picks up pallet 5 and fixes it. During operation, clamping mechanism 3 clamps the material to prevent it from shifting due to shaking during the flipping process. Then, rotating mechanism 2 rotates material box 1 180 degrees, causing pallet 5 below and material 7 above to exchange positions. After the exchange, material 7 is below and aligned with external automatic forklift equipment. External automatic forklift equipment picks up and transfers the material. After the transfer, only pallet 5 remains. Rotating mechanism 2 then rotates material box 1 180 degrees back to its original position, and pallet 5 is aligned with external conveyor line for return flow, thus realizing the automation of pallet and material separation.

[0028] In some embodiments, the rotating mechanism 2 includes a mounting frame 21, a rotating cylinder 22, and a hydraulic station 23, with the rotating cylinder 22 connected to the hydraulic station 23 via a pipe. The rotating cylinder 22 is mounted above the mounting frame 21, and the hydraulic station 23 is mounted below the mounting frame 21.

[0029] In some embodiments, the rotating end of the rotary cylinder 22 is connected to the material box 1 via a rotary bearing, thereby improving the accuracy of rotation and preventing shaking.

[0030] In some embodiments, the mounting bracket 21 is equipped with a signal switch 24, which is used to determine and provide feedback on the flip position.

[0031] In some embodiments, the mounting bracket 21 includes a vertical bracket 211, a lateral support plate 212 and a bottom support plate 213. The vertical bracket 211 is connected to the bottom support plate 213, and the lateral support plates 212 are respectively connected to both sides of the vertical bracket 211.

[0032] In some embodiments, multiple fixed brackets 214 are provided on both sides of the bottom support plate 213, which can more conveniently fix the rotating mechanism 2 on the ground.

[0033] In some embodiments, the lateral support plate 212 has a triangular shape, which can reduce material usage and lower costs.

[0034] In some embodiments, the clamping mechanism 3 includes a clamping frame 31 and a telescopic cylinder 32. The telescopic cylinder 32 is mounted on the top of the material box 1, and the telescopic end of the telescopic cylinder 32 is connected to the clamping frame 31. Guide rails 11 are respectively provided on both sides of the top of the material box 1, and guide wheel seats 33 are respectively provided on both sides of the clamping frame 31. The guide wheel seats 33 are provided with guide wheels 331 corresponding to the guide rails 11.

[0035] It should be noted that when the telescopic cylinder 32 is working, it presses the clamping frame 31 down along the guide rail 11. At this time, the guide wheel 331 rolls along the guide rail 11, thereby clamping the material 7 and stabilizing the material.

[0036] In some embodiments, the guide wheel seat 33 is provided with two guide wheels 331, and the guide rail 11 is located between the two guide wheels 331. The two guide wheels 331 roll along the guide rail 11 to play a limiting role, which can further increase the stability of the clamping frame 31 during the lifting process.

[0037] In some embodiments, the material conveying mechanism 4 includes multiple chain conveying mechanisms 41, a drive shaft, a drive motor, and side guards 42. The chain conveying mechanisms are installed at the bottom of the material box 1, and the side guards 42 are installed on both sides of the bottom of the material box 1. The transmission part of the chain conveying mechanism is connected to the drive shaft, and the drive motor is connected to the drive shaft through a reduction mechanism.

[0038] It should be noted that after the drive motor is started and drives the transmission shaft to rotate through the reduction mechanism, the chain transmission mechanism 41 starts to transmit materials. The chain transmission mechanism 41 can transfer materials and pallets back and forth, and connect to another conveyor line to realize the flow of goods. The material transmission mechanism 4 is also equipped with a material signal switch to provide real-time feedback on the position status of the materials.

[0039] In summary, the embodiments of this utility model provide a material pallet removal device. After the material box is rotated 180 degrees by a rotating mechanism, the material can be picked up by an external transport device. After rotating another 180 degrees, the pallet is aligned with the external conveyor line for return flow, thereby realizing the automatic separation of material and pallet. The device is safe to operate, occupies little space, and is highly efficient and low in cost.

Those skilled in the art can make changes or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed in this application, and all such changes or substitutions should be within the scope of protection of this application.
