Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of die-cutting equipment technology, specifically to a die-cutting machine pallet logistics device. Background Technology

[0002] Die-cutting machines are core equipment used for die-cutting and creasing sheet materials such as paper and cardboard. In existing technologies, the feeding and receiving processes of die-cutting machines are not highly automated, and the following problems are common: During feeding, manual labor is usually required to move pallets stacked with materials and align them with the feeding port. This is labor-intensive, and the positioning accuracy depends on operational experience, affecting the stability of subsequent processing. After feeding, empty pallets need to be removed manually in a timely manner, which not only occupies labor but also easily leads to workstation blockages and disrupts production rhythm due to untimely handling. At the receiving end, empty pallets need to be pre-placed to receive die-cut finished products, and manual replacement is required after the pallets are full. The entire process is cumbersome and inefficient. Furthermore, when the die-cutting machine switches between different working modes such as full clean (complete removal of waste edges) and partial clean (retaining some connection points), the receiving requirements and product flow differ. Existing manual logistics methods are difficult to adapt flexibly and efficiently to these changes, further reducing the overall production efficiency and automation level of the machine.

[0016] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described in detail below through specific embodiments and in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Example

[0017] like Figures 1 to 5The diagram illustrates a pallet logistics device for a die-cutting machine. The device is constructed around the die-cutting machine body 1. The die-cutting machine body 1 has a feeding port 11 and a discharging port 12 on its front and rear sides, respectively. Materials are fed in through the feeding port 11 for die-cutting, and finished products are discharged through the discharging port 12. The overall operation of the device is uniformly scheduled by a control system, which controls the pallet flow direction according to the die-cutting machine's operating mode.

[0018] It also includes a feeding track 2, whose outlet end is connected to the feeding mechanism 3. In this embodiment, the feeding track 2 and the feeding mechanism 3 are arranged vertically. The feeding track 2 uses a second conveying component 6 to convey the pallets carrying materials. A first conveying component 7 is provided at the outlet end of the feeding track 2 to transfer the pallets carrying materials to the connected feeding mechanism 3. In actual production, multiple stacked pallets can be placed on the feeding track 2 at one time for queuing and buffering. After the current pallet is loaded, the feeding track 2 automatically conveys the next loaded pallet to the feeding mechanism 3 to achieve continuous material supply.

[0019] The feeding mechanism 3 is vertically mounted below the feeding port 11 and is crucial for the device to achieve precise positioning and automatic handover. The feeding mechanism 3 includes a base plate 31, with first lifting chains 34 connected to each of the four corners of the base plate 31. These first lifting chains 34 cooperate with a lifting motor fixed at the feeding port 11 of the die-cutting machine body 1 to drive the entire base plate 31 and its components to rise and fall smoothly. A guide assembly 35, such as a linear guide rail, is provided on the upper surface of the base plate 31. The slide 32 is slidably mounted on the base plate 31 via the guide assembly 35. The movement of the slide 32 is driven by two sets of parallel cylinders fixed to one side of the base plate 31 as first driving components 33. The moving ends of the cylinders are connected to the slide 32. When the cylinders extend or retract, they drive the slide 32 and its supported tray to slide along the feeding direction (X-direction) of the die-cutting machine body 1. A first conveying assembly 7 is mounted on the slide 32, and the conveying direction of the first conveying assembly 7 is perpendicular to the X-direction (Y-direction). Once the pallet containing the material is conveyed onto the carriage 32, the control system coordinates the linear motion (X-axis adjustment) of the first drive component 33 and the rotation (Y-axis adjustment) of the first conveying component 7 to achieve precise position adjustment of the pallet in four directions (front, back, left, and right) on the plane, completing four-way positioning. After positioning is completed, the lifting component drives the entire feeding mechanism 3 to rise, precisely aligning the material on the pallet and feeding it into the feeding port 11 of the die-cutting machine body 1 for unloading.

[0020] After the material feeding is completed, the empty pallet returns to its original position as the feeding mechanism 3 descends. At this time, the first conveying component 7 on the feeding mechanism 3 is activated, conveying the empty pallet on it along the Y direction to the pallet input area 41 of the transfer track 4.

[0021] The transfer track 4 is located on one side of the die-cutting machine body 1 and is responsible for the scheduling and temporary storage of empty pallets. It has multiple functional areas: the pallet input area 41 has a first conveying component 7 for receiving empty pallets from the feeding mechanism 3; the transfer area 42 has a second conveying component 6 for transporting pallets between different areas; the fully cleared pallet waiting area 44 and the semi-cleared pallet waiting area 45 are used to temporarily store empty pallets to be supplied to the fully cleared and semi-cleared receiving mechanisms, respectively; the pallet replenishment area 43 pre-stores empty pallets for replenishment and has a second conveying component 6 for transferring these empty pallets to the transfer area 42. Each waiting area also has a second conveying component 6 connecting to the transfer area 42. The three second conveying components 6 on the transfer track 4 are interconnected to jointly complete the pallet transport on the transfer track 4. Each waiting area is equipped with a sensor 8 for real-time monitoring of the pallet's arrival status, and each waiting area also has a first conveying component 7 for transferring empty pallets to the corresponding receiving mechanism 5. When a receiving station is short of pallets, the control system will prioritize dispatching from the corresponding waiting area; if there are no pallets in the waiting area, an empty pallet will be called from the pallet replenishment area 43 and sent to the transfer area 42 to replenish it.

[0022] The receiving mechanism 5 is located below the discharge port 12 and includes a full receiving mechanism 51 and a semi-receiving mechanism 52.

[0023] The full-clearing receiving mechanism 51 is fixedly installed, including a full-clearing receiving rack 511. A first conveying assembly 7 and a sensor 8 are mounted above it. When the sensor 8 detects that an empty pallet fed in by the transfer track 4 has been positioned, the die-cutting machine body 1 can begin full-clearing mode production, outputting the finished product onto the pallet. After the pallet is full, the first conveying assembly 7 is activated, conveying the full pallet to the connected full-clearing discharge track.

[0024] The semi-cleaning receiving mechanism 52 is located behind the fully-cleaning receiving mechanism 51 and requires lifting movement to accommodate the output of semi-cleaned products. The four corners of its semi-cleaning receiving rack 521 are also connected to the lifting motor on the discharge port 12 side of the die-cutting machine body 1 via the second lifting chain 523 to achieve lifting. During operation, the semi-cleaning receiving rack 521 rises first, and the second conveying component 6 on it laterally introduces the empty pallet from the semi-cleaning pallet waiting area 45. After the pallet moves into position, it is precisely blocked and positioned by a baffle 522 on one side. Then, the semi-cleaning receiving rack 521 descends to a suitable height to receive the semi-cleaned products output from the die-cutting machine body 1. After receiving the products, the semi-cleaning receiving rack 521 rises again, and the first conveying component 7 on it longitudinally outputs the finished product pallet to the semi-cleaning discharge track.

[0025] In this embodiment, the first conveying component 7 at each location consists of several synchronously rotating guide rollers and servo motors that drive them to rotate, which can realize the precise conveying and positioning of the pallet; the second conveying component 6 uses a conveyor belt and a drive motor that drives it to operate, which has the advantages of low cost and stable transmission, and is suitable for long-distance transportation.
