Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of carton conveying technology, specifically relating to a carton conveying device that can automatically separate lanes. Background Technology
[0002] A carton palletizing and conveying device is an automated equipment that integrates conveying, positioning, and palletizing functions. It can transport cartons to a designated location in an orderly manner via a conveyor belt, and then stack them into a stack by a robotic arm or palletizing mechanism according to preset rules. It is widely used in logistics, packaging, warehousing and other industries, and can effectively improve the efficiency and stability of carton stacking and reduce the intensity of manual labor.
[0003] Traditional conveying devices often struggle to simultaneously handle functions such as carton posture adjustment, lateral movement, and precise positioning. Some devices can only achieve unidirectional conveying, but due to the lack of accurate positioning detection methods, it is difficult to guarantee the neatness and reliability of carton stacking. In existing technologies, the coordination between the conveying mechanism and the detection mechanism is insufficient, making it easy for cartons to experience positional deviations and posture confusion during the stacking process, affecting stacking efficiency and quality. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a carton conveying device with automatic lane separation and positioning to solve the above-mentioned problems.
[0005] This utility model achieves the above objectives through the following technical solutions:
[0006] An automatic carton conveying device includes a base and a feeding channel disposed on the base, wherein a swing wheel conveying mechanism is disposed on the base;
[0007] It also includes:
[0008] An adjustment mechanism is provided below the feed channel;
[0009] A detection probe is mounted on an adjustment mechanism, which drives the detection probe to change its angle.
[0010] As a further optimization of this utility model, the adjusting mechanism includes a cylinder, which is rotatably mounted on the lower surface of the feeding channel. A bracket is fixedly mounted on one side of the feeding channel. There are two brackets, and a horizontal shaft A is rotatably mounted between the brackets. Connecting rods A are fixedly mounted at both ends of the horizontal shaft A. A sliding groove is provided on the bracket, and a horizontal shaft B is rotatably and slidably mounted on the sliding groove. Connecting rods B are fixed at both ends of the horizontal shaft B. Both connecting rods B and connecting rods A are rotatably connected to the output end of the cylinder.
[0011] As a further optimization of this utility model, the detection probe is fixedly mounted on the horizontal axis B.
[0012] As a further optimization of this utility model, the swing wheel conveying mechanism includes a mounting base, which is fixedly mounted on a base. Multiple longitudinal electric rollers are mounted on the mounting base, forming a group, and there are multiple groups of longitudinal electric rollers. Multiple transverse electric rollers are also mounted on the mounting base, forming a group, and there are multiple groups of transverse electric rollers. A rotating wheel A is mounted on each transverse electric roller, and a rotating wheel B is mounted on each longitudinal electric roller. A servo motor is fixedly mounted on the mounting base, and a synchronous belt is provided between the output end of the servo motor, rotating wheel B, and rotating wheel A.
[0013] As a further optimization of this utility model, the transverse electric roller and the longitudinal electric roller are arranged in an alternating manner on the mounting base.
[0014] As a further optimization of this utility model, the mounting base is provided with multiple ball bearing groups, which are located on both sides of the transverse electric roller.
[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0016] 1. Unlike existing technologies, in actual use, the swing wheel conveying mechanism on the base uses a servo motor to drive the staggered horizontal and vertical electric rollers via a synchronous belt group. This enables both regular transportation of cartons and planar rotation of cartons through conveying forces in different directions, meeting various palletizing posture requirements.
[0017] 2. Unlike existing technologies, in actual use, the adjustment mechanism below the feeding channel drives the movement of connecting rods A and B via a cylinder. This, combined with the rotation and sliding of horizontal shafts A and B within the bracket groove, allows the detection probe to flexibly adjust its angle. This enables real-time monitoring of the position and posture of the carton before it enters the feeding channel, and provides feedback signals to control the conveying mechanism for precise operation. This effectively improves the neatness and reliability of carton stacking, significantly enhancing stacking efficiency and quality. Attached Figure Description

[0022] The present application will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that the following specific embodiments are only used to further illustrate the present application and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present application. Those skilled in the art can make some non-essential improvements and adjustments to the present application based on the above application content.
[0023] Example 1
[0024] like Figure 1 - Figure 3 As shown, an automatic carton conveying device includes a base 1 and a feeding channel 4 mounted on the base 1. A swing wheel conveying mechanism 2 is mounted on the base 1. The swing wheel conveying mechanism 2 is equipped with a ball bearing assembly 3. An adjusting mechanism 5 is also included below the feeding channel 4. The adjusting mechanism 5 is equipped with a detection probe 6, which drives the detection probe 6 to change its angle. The base 1 serves as the basic support structure of the entire device, acting like a stable foundation and providing a stable mounting platform for other components. This ensures that the working accuracy and stability of each mechanism are not affected by uneven force or shaking during operation. This not only guarantees the reliability of the device's operation but also reduces component wear caused by vibration, extending the equipment's service life. The feeding channel 4 provides a clear conveying path for the cartons, guiding them smoothly into subsequent conveying and palletizing processes. This reduces the possibility of cartons shifting or getting stuck when entering the device, improving the overall smoothness of the operation, reducing the frequency of downtime for maintenance due to blockages, and increasing production efficiency. The ball bearing assembly 3 ensures smooth movement of the cartons on the swing wheel conveying mechanism 2.
[0025] The adjusting mechanism 5 includes a cylinder 51, which is rotatably mounted on the lower surface of the feed channel 4. A bracket 52 is fixedly mounted on one side of the feed channel 4. There are two brackets 52, and a horizontal shaft A531 is rotatably mounted between them. Connecting rods A53 are fixedly mounted at both ends of the horizontal shaft A531. A sliding groove 521 is provided on the bracket 52, and a horizontal shaft B541 is rotatably and slidably mounted on the sliding groove 521. Connecting rods B54 are fixed at both ends of the horizontal shaft B541. Both connecting rods B54 and A53 are rotatably connected to the output end of the cylinder 51. A detection probe 6 is fixedly mounted on the horizontal shaft B541. The cylinder 51, as the power source of the adjusting mechanism 5, has the characteristics of fast response speed, stable thrust, and easy control, and can quickly and accurately push the connecting rod A53. The movement of the connecting rod B54 ensures that the detection probe 6 can be adjusted to the required angle in a very short time, enabling real-time monitoring of the position and posture of the carton before it enters the feeding channel 4. The cooperation between the bracket 52 and the horizontal axis provides reliable rotation and sliding support for the connecting rod, ensuring the smoothness of the entire adjustment process. The design of the slide groove 521 allows the horizontal axis B541 to slide while rotating, greatly expanding the angle adjustment range of the detection probe 6, timely capturing the posture of the carton before it enters the feeding channel 4, and transmitting the feedback signal to the control system so as to control the swing wheel conveyor mechanism 2 to make precise adjustments, thereby ensuring the neatness and reliability of carton stacking, improving stacking quality and work efficiency, and reducing the probability of defective products.
[0026] The swing wheel conveying mechanism 2 includes a mounting base 21, which is fixedly mounted on the base 1. Multiple longitudinal electric rollers 23 are mounted on the mounting base 21, forming a group of multiple longitudinal electric rollers 23. Multiple transverse electric rollers 22 are also mounted on the mounting base 21, forming a group of multiple transverse electric rollers 22. A rotating wheel A221 is mounted on each transverse electric roller 22, and a rotating wheel B231 is mounted on each longitudinal electric roller 23. A servo motor 24 is fixedly mounted on the mounting base 21. The output end of the servo motor 24 is connected to the rotating wheel B23. A synchronous belt group 241 is provided between 1 and the rotating wheel A221. The transverse electric roller 22 and the longitudinal electric roller 23 are arranged in an alternating manner on the mounting base 21. The mounting base 21 provides a stable mounting foundation for the longitudinal electric roller 23 and the transverse electric roller 22, ensuring the positional accuracy of each roller during operation, avoiding conveying deviations caused by unstable installation, and ensuring that the carton can move stably along the predetermined path during the conveying process. The alternating arrangement of the longitudinal electric roller 23 and the transverse electric roller 22, together with the servo motor 24 and the synchronous belt group 241, can realize flexible and diverse conveying methods. During normal transport operations, the transverse electric roller 22 is stopped, and the carton can be conveyed in a straight line using only the longitudinal electric roller 23, ensuring the stability and efficiency of the conveying and reducing damage to the carton caused by unstable conveying. When the carton needs to be rotated, the longitudinal electric roller 23 and the transverse electric roller 22 are started simultaneously. Through the conveying forces generated by the two in different directions, the carton can be easily rotated in the plane without the need for additional complex rotating devices. This meets the needs of various posture adjustments of the carton during the stacking process, greatly improving the versatility and adaptability of the device. It can be used for cartons of different specifications and stacking requirements, reducing the cost incurred by enterprises due to equipment replacement.
[0027] It should be noted that when this automatic carton conveying device is working, the cartons enter through the feeding channel 4. The servo motor 24 in the swing wheel conveying mechanism 2 drives the rotating wheel A221 on the transverse electric roller 22 and the rotating wheel B231 on the longitudinal electric roller 23 via the synchronous belt group 241. The transverse electric roller 22 and the longitudinal electric roller 23 are arranged alternately. During the transport operation, the transverse electric roller 22 stops moving, and at the same time, the direction of the longitudinal electric roller 23 is changed, so that the cartons are diverted to both sides of the swing wheel conveying mechanism 2 for transport, thereby realizing dual-channel transport. For cartons that need to rotate, the longitudinal electric roller 23 and the transverse electric roller 22 are started simultaneously to generate conveying forces in different directions, thereby making the cartons rotate in a plane to meet various postures.
[0028] Meanwhile, the cylinder 51 in the adjustment mechanism 5 is rotatably mounted on the lower surface of the feeding channel 4. The cylinder 51 extends and retracts, driving the connecting rods A53 and B54 to move. The horizontal shafts A531 and B541 cooperate with the sliding groove 521 on the bracket 52 to achieve rotation and sliding, thereby driving the detection probe 6 fixed on the horizontal shaft B541 to perform angle conversion, real-time monitoring of the position and posture of the carton before entering the feeding channel 4, and feedback signals to control the precise adjustment of the conveying mechanism to ensure the neatness and reliability of the carton stacking.
[0029] The embodiments described above are merely examples of several implementations of this utility model, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, 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 modifications and improvements all fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
