Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of carton conveying technology, specifically relating to a carton palletizing and conveying edge-aligning device. Background Technology

[0002] In the modern logistics warehousing and packaging production sector, with the rapid development of e-commerce, the deepening of intelligent manufacturing, and the increasing demand from consumers for fast delivery, automated and efficient carton palletizing and conveying systems have become crucial for enterprises to enhance their competitiveness. As the primary packaging form for goods storage and transportation, the efficiency and quality of carton palletizing and conveying directly impact the overall efficiency of logistics operations. However, existing carton palletizing and conveying technologies suffer from numerous bottlenecks, making it difficult to meet the ever-evolving needs of the industry. Traditional carton conveying devices mostly use ordinary roller or belt conveyor structures. This type of conveying can only achieve straight unidirectional conveying, which is extremely inflexible. In actual warehousing operations, warehouse layouts are complex and varied, and multiple different workstations need to be connected, such as sorting areas, packing areas, and loading areas. Because ordinary conveying devices cannot move laterally or diagonally in a plane, when faced with complex path planning, they can only adjust the carton conveying direction by adding additional turning equipment or even relying on manual handling. This not only leads to long and complex conveying routes, but also greatly reduces operational efficiency. In existing technologies, the coordination between the conveying mechanism and the detection mechanism is insufficient, which makes it easy for cartons to have positional deviations and chaotic postures during the palletizing process, affecting palletizing efficiency and quality. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a carton palletizing and conveying device that follows and positions the cartons to solve the above problems.

[0004] This utility model achieves the above objectives through the following technical solutions: A carton palletizing and conveying edge-aligning device includes a base, on the top of which a Mecanum wheel conveyor is mounted. The Mecanum wheel conveyor includes two sets of symmetrically distributed mounting seats fixedly mounted on the base. A left rotating rod and a right rotating rod are rotatably connected between adjacent mounting seats. A plurality of left rotating wheels are fixedly fitted on the outer side walls of the left rotating rods, and a plurality of right rotating wheels are fixedly fitted on the outer side walls of the right rotating rods.

[0005] As a further optimization of this utility model, several of the left and right rotating rods are alternately arranged on the base, and the outer side walls of the left and right rotating rods are all fixedly fitted with synchronous wheels installed on the side walls of the corresponding left and right rotating wheels.

[0006] As a further optimization of this utility model, the synchronous pulleys on the adjacent left rotating rod and the synchronous pulleys on the adjacent right rotating rod are both connected by a transmission synchronous belt.

[0007] As a further optimization of this utility model, a left wheel motor and a right wheel motor are provided on the base, and the left wheel motor and the right wheel motor are respectively connected to synchronous wheels fixedly provided on the side walls of the corresponding left-hand and right-hand wheels through a transmission assembly.

[0008] As a further optimization of this utility model, the upper horizontal plane of the transmission assembly and the transmission timing belt is lower than the upper horizontal plane of each left-hand and right-hand pulley.

[0009] As a further optimization of this utility model, a baffle is fixedly installed on the outer side of the top of the base.

[0010] As a further optimization of this utility model, the base is equipped with legs at the four corners of its bottom, and the legs are arranged in a rectangular array.

[0011] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: 1. Unlike existing technologies, it adopts a staggered layout of Mecanum wheels (left-hand and right-hand wheels). With independent control of the left and right wheel motors, it can achieve omnidirectional movement of the carton on the horizontal plane. Whether it is right-angle turning, diagonal translation or rotation in place, it can be precisely controlled without the need for an additional steering mechanism.

[0012] 2. Unlike existing technologies, this technology utilizes the vector motion characteristics of the Mecanum wheel, combined with the limiting guidance of the baffle, to achieve precise edge alignment. When the carton contacts the baffle, by adjusting the speed and direction of the left and right rotating wheels, the carton can be smoothly moved along the baffle.

[0013] 3. Unlike existing technologies, it adopts a combination of synchronous pulley and transmission synchronous belt, with dual motors driving independently to ensure that all left and right rotating pulleys operate synchronously. Synchronous belt drive has the advantages of being noiseless, wear-free, and precise in transmission. In addition, the design of the transmission components and transmission synchronous belt being lower than the wheel surface avoids direct contact with the carton and reduces the risk of interference.

[0016] 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.

[0017] Example 1

[0018] like Figure 1 - Figure 2 As shown, a carton palletizing and conveying device includes a base 1 as the main supporting component of the device, with support legs 2 installed at the four corners of its bottom. The support legs 2 are arranged in a rectangular array to stably support the entire device on the ground.

[0019] like Figure 1 - Figure 6As shown, two sets of symmetrically distributed mounting seats 7 are fixedly mounted on the base 1. A left rotating rod 5 and a right rotating rod 13 are rotatably connected between adjacent mounting seats 7. A plurality of arrayed left-hand rotating wheels 6 are fixedly fitted onto the outer walls of several left-hand rotating rods 5, and a plurality of arrayed right-hand rotating wheels 12 are fixedly fitted onto the outer walls of several right-hand rotating rods 13. The right-hand rotating wheels 12 and the left-hand rotating wheels 6 are alternately arranged on the base 1. Synchronous pulleys 10 are fixedly fitted onto the outer walls of the left-hand rotating rods 5, and onto the side walls of each left-hand rotating wheel 6 and right-hand rotating wheel 12. A transmission synchronous belt 9 is fixedly fitted onto the outer walls of adjacent synchronous pulleys 10. Synchronous rotation between the left-hand rotating wheels 6 and right-hand rotating wheels 12 is achieved through the transmission synchronous belt 9. A left-hand wheel motor 11 and a right-hand wheel motor 4 are mounted on the base 1. The left-hand wheel motor 4 and the right-hand wheel motor 11 are respectively connected to the corresponding left-hand rotating wheel 6 and right-hand rotating wheel via a transmission assembly 8. The transmission assembly 8 is connected to the synchronous pulleys 10 fixedly installed on the side walls of the 12th wheel. The synchronous pulleys 10 are located at the output ends of the left wheel motor 11 and the right wheel motor 4, and the synchronous belts of the synchronous pulleys 10 on the corresponding left rotating rod 5 and the right rotating rod 13 are also connected. The left wheel motor 11 and the right wheel motor 4 provide power to the left rotating wheel 6 and the right rotating wheel 12. The output ends of the left wheel motor 11 and the right wheel motor 4 rotate in opposite directions, that is, the left rotating wheel 6 rotates counterclockwise and the right rotating wheel 12 rotates clockwise or the left rotating wheel 6 rotates clockwise and the right rotating wheel 12 rotates counterclockwise. This ensures that the carton moves in the set direction during the conveying process. In this solution, the left rotating wheel 6 rotates counterclockwise and the right rotating wheel 12 rotates clockwise. This ensures that the carton can complete the side-mounting action during the conveying process. The upper horizontal plane of the transmission assembly 8 and the transmission synchronous belt 9 is lower than the upper horizontal plane of each left rotating wheel 6 and the right rotating wheel 12 to avoid the synchronous belt from contacting the carton and ensure that the carton is conveyed smoothly.

[0020] like Figures 1-2 As shown, a baffle 3 is fixedly installed on the outer side of the top of the base 1. During the carton conveying process, the baffle 3 is used to block the carton and make it move inward to the side, so as to achieve a neat arrangement of the carton.

[0021] It should be noted that after placing the device in a suitable working position and ensuring that the support leg 2 is firmly supported, the power supply of the left wheel motor 11 and the right wheel motor 4 is connected, and the equipment is started, the left wheel motor 11 and the right wheel motor 4 drive the synchronous wheels 10 on the side walls of the corresponding left-hand wheel 6 and right-hand wheel 12 to rotate through the transmission component 8. The output ends of the left wheel motor 11 and the right wheel motor 4 rotate in opposite directions, that is, the left-hand wheel 6 rotates counterclockwise and the right-hand wheel 12 rotates clockwise or the left-hand wheel 6 rotates clockwise and the right-hand wheel 12 rotates counterclockwise. This ensures that the carton moves in the set direction during the conveying process. In this solution, the left-hand wheel 6 rotates counterclockwise and the right-hand wheel 12 rotates clockwise, which ensures that the carton can complete the side-mounted action during the conveying process. The cartons to be conveyed are placed on the staggered left-hand wheel 6 and right-hand wheel 12. Since the left-hand wheel 6 and right-hand wheel 12 rotate synchronously through the transmission timing belt 9, the cartons begin to be conveyed smoothly under the action of the Mecanum wheel conveyor. The unique structural design of the left-hand wheel 6 and right-hand wheel 12 enables the cartons to move in any direction on the horizontal plane. During the carton conveying process, when the carton approaches the outermost baffle 3 at the top of the base 1, the baffle 3 prevents the carton from moving further outward. At this time, the Mecanum wheel conveyor continues to run. Under the synergistic action of the left-hand wheel 6 and the right-hand wheel 12, the carton moves inward along the baffle 3 until it is neatly arranged to the side, completing the carton's side-alignment operation.

[0022] 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.
