Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of mechanical technology and relates to a handling mechanism for cement stacking groups. Background Technology

[0002] In the current technology, the sale of cement products often requires first breaking down piles of cement into smaller packages, then stacking and grouping these cement packages using a conveyor line or manual labor, and finally bundling these grouped cement packages into stacked cement bags. After that, the cement bags are counted according to the buyer's needs before being loaded onto trucks for transportation.

[0003] The final step of the conveyor line is the inventory and loading process, which is very important. It not only requires a certain stability of the stacked cement bags, but also needs to ensure the timeliness of loading. In the existing technology, the truck is usually parked next to the conveyor line, and then several stacked cement bags are moved into the truck in an orderly manner and stacked by manpower. In order to ensure the timeliness requirement, more manpower is usually assigned to carry out the above-mentioned handling work.

[0004] However, the above method has high labor costs. Secondly, the cement stacking group is composed of multiple cement bags, which is heavier. In addition, each truck may need to carry hundreds of cement stacking groups, which makes it impossible for workers to perform high-intensity labor for a long time, and the handling efficiency cannot be guaranteed. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to address the aforementioned problems in existing technologies by proposing a handling mechanism for stacked cement packages. The technical problem this utility model aims to solve is: how to reduce labor costs while ensuring handling efficiency.

[0006] The objective of this utility model can be achieved through the following technical solution: a cement stacking bag transport mechanism, including a horizontally arranged roller conveyor line, the cement stacking bag transport mechanism also includes a truss, the roller conveyor line is located inside the truss, the truss is provided with a mechanical arm that can slide longitudinally and also laterally, the mechanical arm has a plurality of them, the plurality of mechanical arms are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the roller conveyor line, and each mechanical arm is arranged vertically and can extend and retract vertically.

[0007] This application utilizes a roller conveyor line to transfer stacked cement bales. A truss structure allows for the installation of several sets of robotic arms above the conveyor line, capable of sliding both horizontally and vertically. These robotic arms are spaced apart along the length of the conveyor line. During operation, the driver parks the truck alongside the conveyor line, positioned inside the truss. The robotic arms then move back and forth between the truck bed and the conveyor line, gripping the stacked cement bales and transferring them into the truck bed. In the stacking process, when the stacked cement reaches a certain height in the designated area, the robotic arm is laterally moved (i.e., moved along the length of the roller conveyor line) to allow it to continue working in an area with a lower stacking height. Based on this, through the coordinated work of several sets of robotic arms and the roller conveyor line, it is possible to quickly pick up and stack stacked cement bags while increasing the conveying speed of the roller conveyor line. The entire process requires no manual intervention. Compared with existing technologies, this can effectively reduce labor costs while ensuring the efficiency of loading and transporting stacked cement bags.

[0008] In the aforementioned cement stacking and handling mechanism, the top of the truss is provided with several longitudinally arranged support beams spaced laterally, and these support beams are all slidably connected to the truss laterally. Several robotic arms are slidably connected to these support beams one by one. Specifically, in this application, each robotic arm is mounted on a support beam located at the top of the truss. The robotic arm achieves longitudinal sliding translation through sliding motion on the support beam, and lateral sliding translation through sliding motion of the support beam at the top of the truss. Furthermore, the support beam structure also reinforces the overall structural stability of the truss, ensuring the installation stability of the robotic arms.

[0009] In the aforementioned cement stack handling mechanism, each set of support beams includes beam one and beam two, which are spaced apart along the length of the roller conveyor line. The robotic arm is slidably connected to beam one and beam two, respectively. Cement stacks formed by combining several cement bags are heavier. To ensure the load-bearing capacity, this application designs the support beams as a mating structure of beam one and beam two, utilizing the cooperation of the two beams to support the robotic arm, thereby ensuring the installation stability of the robotic arm.

[0010] In the aforementioned cement stack handling mechanism, the robotic arm includes a sliding arm and a gripping arm. The upper end of the sliding arm is slidably connected to the support beam, and the gripping arm is vertically slidably connected to the lower end of the sliding arm. This configuration ensures that the gripper of the robotic arm can correspondingly perform lifting and lowering actions, thereby enabling the grasping and stacking of cement stacks.

[0011] In the aforementioned cement stack handling mechanism, a coding machine is installed within the truss on one side of the roller conveyor line. The coding machine is positioned near the input end of the roller conveyor line and in front of several robotic arms. This allows the coding machine to sequentially mark several cement stacks before handling by the robotic arms, avoiding the complexity of coding the cement stacks after handling and ensuring clear cargo information.

[0012] Compared with existing technologies, the handling mechanism of this cement stacking group has the following advantages: it uses a roller conveyor line to transport the packaged cement stacking group, and sets up a truss to assemble several sets of robotic arms. Through the back-and-forth horizontal movement of the robotic arms between the truck and the roller conveyor line, and the sliding movement of the robotic arms on the truss along the length of the roller conveyor line, the robotic arms use their gripping action to grab the cement stacking group on the roller conveyor line and stack it in the truck. Intelligent cargo handling can be achieved without human intervention, which reduces labor costs while ensuring handling efficiency. Attached Figure Description

[0013] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the handling mechanism of this cement stacking group.

[0016] The following are specific embodiments of the present invention, which are described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.

[0017] like Figure 1As shown, the handling mechanism of this cement stacking group includes a roller conveyor line 1 arranged horizontally. In addition, the handling mechanism of this cement stacking group also includes a truss 2. The roller conveyor line 1 is located inside the truss 2, and a parking area is formed on one side of the roller conveyor line 1 inside the truss 2. Several sets of support beams 22 arranged longitudinally are arranged at intervals along the horizontal direction at the top of the truss 2. The several sets of support beams 22 are all slidably connected to the truss 2 along the horizontal direction. Each set of support beams 22 is slidably connected to a vertically arranged robotic arm 21, and each robotic arm 21 can extend and retract vertically.

[0018] Combination Figure 2 Each set of support beams 22 includes a beam body 1 221 and a beam body 222 arranged in the horizontal longitudinal direction. The beam body 1 221 and the beam body 222 are spaced apart along the length of the roller conveyor line 1. Each set of robotic arms 21 includes a sliding arm 211 and a clamping arm 212. The upper end of the sliding arm 211 is slidably connected to the beam body 1 221 and the beam body 222 that constitute the support beam 22. The clamping arm 212 is slidably connected to the lower end of the sliding arm 211 in the vertical direction.

[0019] Inside the truss 2, there is also a coding machine 3. The coding machine 3 is located on the other side of the roller conveyor line 1 and is set close to the input end of the roller conveyor line 1, so that the coding machine 3 is located in front of several robotic arms 21.

[0020] Working principle: The driver first drives the truck to the parking area. After packaging, the cement bales are conveyed sequentially from front to back via roller conveyor 1. Each cement bale is marked with a coding machine 3. Then, the truck continues to be conveyed backward via roller conveyor 1. Meanwhile, robotic arms 21 move back and forth between roller conveyor 1 and the parking area. Using the up-and-down sliding and gripping actions of the clamping arms 212, several marked cement bales are picked up sequentially and stacked in the truck bed. Stacking can reach a certain number of bales in the same area. Once a certain height is reached, the support beam 22 can slide and translate appropriately along the transverse direction of the truss 2, allowing the robotic arm 21 to move to the area in the carriage where cement stacking groups are not stacked. Then, the robotic arms 21 are controlled to move back and forth between the roller conveyor line 1 and the parking area. Relying on the up-and-down sliding and gripping actions of the clamping arm 212, the operator can selectively control some or all of the robotic arms 21 to work according to the time requirements, and adjust the conveying speed of the roller conveyor line 1 according to the number of working robotic arms 21.

[0021] It is worth mentioning that the sliding connection between the inkjet printer 3, the robotic arm 21, and the support beam 22 in this application can all adopt existing technologies. To avoid redundancy, this embodiment will not elaborate further.

[0022] The specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative examples illustrating the spirit of this utility model. Those skilled in the art to which this utility model pertains may make various modifications or additions to the described specific embodiments or use similar methods to substitute them, without departing from the spirit of this utility model or exceeding the scope defined by the appended claims.

[0023] Although this document frequently uses terms such as roller conveyor 1, truss 2, robotic arm 21, sliding arm 211, clamping arm 212, support beam 22, beam body one 221, beam body two 222, and inkjet printer 3, the possibility of using other terms is not excluded. These terms are used merely for the convenience of describing and explaining the essence of this utility model; interpreting them as any additional limitation would contradict the spirit of this utility model.
