Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of loading system technology, specifically an unmanned palletizing system. Background Technology
[0002] Unmanned palletizing systems are used to load grain from warehouses or storage areas onto transport vehicles. These systems typically consist of conveying equipment, loading equipment, and a control system. In existing technologies, single-station robots have low efficiency and slow conveying speeds during grain loading and palletizing. Furthermore, most unmanned palletizing systems are large, requiring long bodies, which occupies considerable floor space; an inefficient layout can further increase space requirements. To achieve rapid grain transport and loading, reduce vehicle waiting time, improve transport efficiency, and optimize the layout to reduce the footprint and adapt to different site conditions, an unmanned palletizing system needs to be developed to address these issues. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide an unmanned palletizing system to enable rapid transport and loading of grain, shorten vehicle waiting time, improve transportation efficiency, optimize layout, and reduce the floor space required to adapt to different site conditions.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an unmanned palletizing system, including a base frame, with horizontally distributed track frames fixed on the top of the base frame. At least two sets of walking bodies are slidably arranged on the track frames. Each walking body includes a gantry frame and servo drive devices arranged at both ends of the gantry frame. An industrial robot is fixed on the top of the gantry frame. A long conveyor line is fixed on the track frames below the gantry frame. The gantry frame spans the long conveyor line. The long conveyor line is arranged parallel to the track frames and extends in the same direction. The long conveyor line is fixed in the middle of the track frames. The long conveyor line is composed of several conveying units arranged and connected sequentially along the conveying direction.
[0005] Preferably, the servo drive device includes a servo geared motor and a gear connected to the output shaft of the servo geared motor. The servo geared motor is fixed on the gantry frame, and the servo geared motor drives the gear to rotate. The gear meshes with a rack, and the rack is fixed on the track frame support along the guide direction of the track frame.
[0006] Preferably, the gantry frame and the track frame are slidably connected by a slider and a slide rail. The slider is fixed at both ends of the gantry frame, and the slide rail is fixed on the track frame support along the guide direction of the track frame.
[0007] Preferably, the industrial robot includes a rotating base, a robotic arm, an end effector gripper, and a wrist mounted on the end of the robotic arm and connected to the end effector gripper.
[0008] Preferably, the conveying component of the conveying unit is a conveyor belt, the supporting component of the conveying unit is a roller, and the conveyor belt is driven by an independent motor to rotate on the roller.
[0009] Preferably, the base frame is arranged at equal intervals along the length of the track frame.
[0010] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0011] The track frame and long conveyor line of this utility model are integrated into one layout. The track frame provides support for the long conveyor line and provides running guidance for the walking body. The track frame and long conveyor line extend along the same running flow direction, and work together with the industrial robots on the walking body to form a continuous material conveying and handling. Two sets of industrial robots can work simultaneously, and are responsible for stacking materials in different areas of the vehicle to different areas. This can significantly shorten the overall loading time and improve transportation efficiency.

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.
[0018] like Figure 1-4As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: an unmanned palletizing system, including a base frame 1, with horizontally distributed track frames 2 fixed on the top of the base frame 1. The base frame 1 is evenly spaced along the length of the track frames 2. The track frames 2 provide a moving path for the walking body 3. At least two sets of walking bodies 3 are slidably arranged on the track frames 2. The walking bodies 3 carry industrial robots 4 and move on the track frames 2. The industrial robot 4 includes a rotating base, a robotic arm, an end effector gripper, and a wrist installed at the end of the robotic arm and connected to the end effector gripper. The working angle can be adjusted by rotating the base to facilitate the gripping and placement of materials from different directions. The robotic arm and wrist cooperate with the end effector gripper to perform actions such as extending, retracting, and adjusting the angle to grip materials. The end effector gripper realizes the gripping and release of materials.
[0019] The traveling body 3 includes a gantry frame 31 and servo drive devices 32 set at both ends of the gantry frame 31. The gantry frame 31 and the track frame 2 are slidably assembled and set through sliders 311 and slide rails 22.

The servo reduction motor 321 is fixed on the gantry frame 31 and drives the gear 322 to rotate. The gear 322 meshes with the rack 21. The rack 21 is fixed on the support of the track frame 2 along the guiding direction of the track frame 2. The rotation of the gear 322 drives the gantry frame 31 to translate. The servo reduction motors 321 of the servo drive devices 32 at both ends of the gantry frame 31 work together through the control system. The servo reduction motors 321 facilitate precise control of the moving speed and displacement of both ends of the gantry frame 31.
[0020] An industrial robot 4 is fixed on the top of the gantry frame 31. A long conveyor line 5 is fixed on the track frame 2 below the gantry frame 31. The gantry frame 31 spans the long conveyor line 5. The long conveyor line 5 is set parallel to the track frame 2 and extends in the same direction. The long conveyor line 5 is fixed in the middle of the track frame 2. The long conveyor line 5 is composed of several conveying units 51 arranged and connected in sequence along the conveying direction.
[0021] The conveying component of the conveying unit 51 is a conveyor belt 511, and the supporting component of the conveying unit 51 is a roller 512. The conveyor belt 511 is driven by an independent motor 513 to rotate on the roller 512.
[0022] Two sets of industrial robots 4 can work simultaneously, each responsible for placing materials from different areas onto different areas of the vehicle, which can significantly shorten the overall loading time and improve transportation efficiency. The layout of the track frame 2, the long conveyor line 5 and the industrial robots 4 on the walking body 3 is reasonable in space, reducing the footprint and making it more adaptable to the needs of different site conditions.
