Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to logistics and transportation equipment, and in particular to a pallet-assembly and pallet-combining machine suitable for soft pallets. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, for raw material warehouses in the new energy sector, raw materials are generally packaged in ton bags. The conventional packaging methods are single bags and stacked bags. In particular, when stacked bags are involved, they cannot be directly loaded onto the truck during shipment. The ton bag products must be shipped together with the shipping pallets.

[0003] Sub-pallets are disposable shipping pallets. From a cost perspective, their quality and strength are inferior to ordinary reusable pallets. Most sub-pallets are disposable plastic pallets or wooden pallets without steel pipes.

[0004] Conventional assembly machines use a hook-and-lift method to assemble the discs by taking the outer side of the sub-tray. This disposable sub-tray deforms too much, affecting the assembly effect. Summary of the Invention

Detailed Implementation

[0024] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain this utility model and are not intended to limit this utility model.

[0025] Please see the appendix Figure 1 -Appendix Figure 5 This application proposes a pallet assembling machine applicable to soft pallets, including a pallet assembling chain machine 100, a lifting platform 200, a fork extension mechanism 300, a sub-pallet chain machine 400, a pallet unassembling machine 500, a mother pallet chain machine 600, and a lifting and transplanting machine 700.

[0026] As attached Figure 1 and attached Figure 2 As shown, the pallet-joining chain conveyor 100 is arranged along the first horizontal direction. The pallet-joining chain conveyor 100 is a common chain conveyor with forward and reverse transmission, mainly composed of components such as a main beam and a drive mechanism. Its structure has been disclosed in the prior art and can be directly purchased and used in the market. The pallet-joining chain conveyor 100 receives sub-pallets and mother pallets from different directions and conveys the joined sub-pallets and mother pallets.

[0027] As attached Figure 2 -Appendix Figure 4 As shown, the lifting platform 200 is embedded within the pallet merging chain machine 100, and its platform edge has a lowest position and a highest position. The lifting platform 200 is a common lifting drive structure, mainly composed of a platform, lifting components, and drive components. Its structure has been disclosed in the prior art and can be directly purchased and used in the market. After the child pallet or mother pallet is conveyed to the platform by the pallet merging chain machine 100, it can be raised to a certain height by the platform to prepare for the extension and retraction of the forks and the merging action.

[0028] As attached Figure 2 -Appendix Figure 4 As shown, the fork extension mechanism 300 is arranged around the pallet chain machine 100. Its forks can extend and retract horizontally along a second horizontal direction at the platform of the lifting platform 200. The height of the forks is between the lowest and highest positions of the platform, and the second horizontal direction is perpendicular to the first horizontal direction. The fork extension mechanism 300 mainly consists of a frame, a drive motor, and telescopic forks. Depending on the pallet type, it can use either a two-finger fork or a single-finger fork. Its structure has been disclosed in the prior art and can be directly purchased and used in the market. When the telescopic forks are in the original position, they do not affect the movement of the sub-pallet to the lifting platform 300. When the telescopic forks are extended, the length of the forks is approximately half the width of the sub-pallet. In use, to ensure the stability of the pallet support, the fork extension mechanisms 300 are arranged in pairs on both sides of the pallet chain machine 100.

[0029] As attached Figure 1As shown, the sub-pallet chain conveyor 400 is connected to one end of the converging chain conveyor 100, and the sub-pallet is conveyed to the converging chain conveyor 100 by the sub-pallet chain conveyor 400. The sub-pallet chain conveyor 400 is a common chain conveyor, mainly composed of components such as a frame and a drive mechanism. Its structure has been disclosed in the prior art and can be directly purchased and used in the market. The sub-pallet can move along the first horizontal direction to the converging chain conveyor 100 under the chain transmission of the sub-pallet chain conveyor 400.

[0030] As attached Figure 1 and attached Figure 5 As shown, the destacking machine 500 is arranged along the second horizontal direction, and the mother pallet stack is destacking into individual mother pallets by the destacking machine 500. The destacking machine 500 mainly consists of a frame assembly and a stacking assembly, which destacking the stacked mother pallet stack into individual mother pallets to achieve the supply of individual mother pallets. Its structure has been disclosed in the prior art and can be directly purchased and used in the market. The arrangement direction of the destacking machine 500 and the arrangement direction of the assembling chain machine 100 are mutually perpendicular, which does not affect the conveying of the mother and daughter pallets after assembling, and achieves rapid material supply to ensure production efficiency.

[0031] As attached Figure 1 and attached Figure 5 As shown, a mother pallet chain conveyor 600 is located on one side of the closing chain conveyor 100, and the mother pallet is conveyed to the closing chain conveyor 100 by the mother pallet chain conveyor 600. A lifting and transplanting machine 700 is embedded in the closing chain conveyor 100 and is used for the reversing transfer of the mother pallet from the mother pallet chain conveyor 600 to the closing chain conveyor 100. The mother pallet chain conveyor 600 and the lifting and transplanting machine 700 cooperate to realize the reversing action of the mother pallet, ensuring the rapid supply of mother pallets. The mother pallet chain conveyor 600 is a common chain conveyor, and the structure of both the mother pallet chain conveyor 600 and the lifting and transplanting machine 700 is disclosed in the prior art and can be directly purchased and used in the market.

[0032] In one embodiment, there is a height difference between the converging chain machine 100 and the mother pallet chain machine 600. The lifting transplanter 700 has a high lifting position and a low lifting position. The high lifting position is aligned with the conveying surface of the mother pallet chain machine 600, and the low lifting position is aligned with the conveying surface of the converging chain machine 100. When the mother pallet is being fed, the lifting transplanter 700 is in the high lifting position, receiving the mother pallet from the mother pallet chain machine 600. Then, the lifting transplanter 700 is lowered to the low lifting position, allowing the mother pallet to contact the converging chain machine 100, thus completing the reversing conveying of the mother pallet.

[0033] Further, please refer to the appendix. Figure 1 To prevent excessive transport of the child or mother pallet, electric stoppers 140 are provided on both sides of the lifting platform 200 along the transport direction of the converging chain machine 100; specifically, in the attached... Figure 1In the conveyor chain machine 100, the conveying direction is left and right. When the sub-pallet is conveyed from left to right, it is blocked and positioned by the electric stop 140 on the right side of the lifting platform 200. When the mother pallet is conveyed from right to left, it is blocked and positioned by the electric stop 140 on the left side of the lifting platform 200. The electric stop 140 is a commonly used stop structure on the conveyor line, which will not be described in detail here.

[0034] Furthermore, a photoelectric sensor can be installed at the fork extension mechanism 300 to detect the extension and retraction status of the forks. When the photoelectric sensor detects that the fork extension mechanism 300 is occupied (i.e., the forks are extended and there is a sub-pallet being closed), the sub-pallet stays at the sub-pallet chain machine 400 and waits. When the photoelectric sensor detects that the fork extension mechanism 300 is idle (i.e., the forks are retracted), the sub-pallet is conveyed to the right by the sub-pallet chain machine 400 to the closing chain machine 100.

[0035] In one specific implementation method, refer to the appendix. Figure 1 In terms of the positional relationship, the left end of the chain assembly machine 100 is configured as the sub-pallet docking point 100a, the right end is configured as the sub-pallet docking point 100c, and the front right is configured as the mother pallet docking point 100b; the first horizontal direction is the left-right direction, and the second horizontal direction is the front-back direction. The sub-pallet is conveyed from left to right, the mother pallet is conveyed from front to back, and the combined sub-pallet and mother pallet are conveyed from left to right.

[0036] The specific process of merging the child pallet and the mother pallet is as follows: The child pallet is conveyed to the right by the child pallet chain conveyor 400 onto the merging chain conveyor 100. The merging chain conveyor 100 conveys the child pallet to the right above the lifting platform 200, where it is blocked and positioned by the extension of the electric stop 140 on the right side. The lifting platform 200 rises to lift the child pallet, the electric stop 140 on the right side retracts, the telescopic forks of the fork extension mechanism 300 extend to support the child pallet, the lifting platform 200 lowers, and the child pallet is suspended in the air. The mother pallet is disassembled into a single mother pallet at the depalletizing machine 500, and the mother pallet is conveyed backward by the mother pallet chain conveyor 600. The lifting and transplanting machine 700 raises to receive the mother pallet and then lowers to place it on the closing chain machine 100. The closing chain machine 100 conveys the pallet to the left and onto the lifting platform, where it is blocked and positioned by the electric stop 140 on the left. The lifting platform 200 raises to lift the mother pallet and contact the child pallet. The electric stop 140 on the left retracts, and the forks of the fork extension mechanism 300 retract. The lifting platform 200 lowers with the mother and child pallets to complete the closing. The closing chain machine 100 then conveys the mother and child pallets to the right end of the closing chain machine 100 to connect with the warehousing equipment, completing the product warehousing.

[0037] In one implementation method, please refer to the appendix. Figure 1The pallet merging chain machine 100 has sub-pallet stops 110 at two edges near the sub-pallet chain machine 400; a mother pallet stop 120 is provided on the opposite edge of the pallet merging chain machine 100 corresponding to the mother pallet chain machine 600; and mother and daughter pallet stops 130 are provided on two edges away from the sub-pallet chain machine 400. By setting these stops, excessive pallet transport can be prevented, and movement guidance can be achieved. Furthermore, the width between the relative stops can be adjusted to accommodate mother and daughter pallets of different widths. The sub-pallet stops 110, mother pallet stops 120, and mother and daughter pallet stops 130 are fixed to the pallet merging chain machine 100 via slotted holes and bolts.

[0038] In one specific embodiment, refer to the appendix Figure 1 In terms of their positional relationship, the two sub-pallet stops 110 are located at the front and rear edges of the converging chain machine 100, corresponding to the front and rear fork extension mechanisms 300. The mother pallet stop 120 is located at the rear edge of the converging chain machine 100, corresponding to the front mother pallet chain machine 600. The mother and child pallet stops 130 are located at the front and rear edges of the converging chain machine 100, corresponding to the right side mother and child pallet docking point 100c.

[0039] Finally, it should be noted that the above specific embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and not to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to examples, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solution of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of this utility model, and all such modifications and substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
