Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sheet metal processing machinery unloading machines, and in particular to a robotic unloading belt conveyor. Background Technology

[0002] Woodworking machine tools process wood. Wood is one of the earliest raw materials discovered and utilized by humankind, and it is closely related to human habitation, transportation, and daily life. Humans have accumulated rich experience in wood processing through long-term practice. Woodworking machine tools have developed precisely through long-term production practice, continuous discovery, exploration, and creation. Wooden furniture refers to utensils made of wood. Based on their structure, they can be divided into two main categories: frame furniture and panel furniture. Typical frame furniture uses mortise and tenon joints, and the materials are natural solid wood boards and square timbers, such as mahogany furniture, Ming-style furniture, Qing-style furniture, and solid wood dining tables and chairs. Typical panel furniture refers to furniture made of engineered wood, with structures connected using connectors, tenons, etc.

[0003] Currently, most panel cutting machines for cutting boards are still in a semi-automatic state. That is, after the machine finishes processing, the boards are unloaded manually. In order to reduce manual labor, robots are installed on one side of the unloading conveyor belt of the panel cutting machine to achieve automatic unloading. However, because there are gaps on both sides of the unloading conveyor belt, some waste material can easily get stuck in the gaps during the conveyor belt transport of the processed boards, causing waste accumulation and blockage, affecting the stable conveying and service life of the unloading conveyor belt. When unloading manually, the waste material in the gaps can be cleaned manually in real time, but when unloading by robots, waste material blockage will occur.

[0004] Therefore, a new technology needs to be developed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of this, the present invention addresses the deficiencies of the existing technology, and its main purpose is to provide a robotic unloading conveyor belt that avoids the phenomenon of waste material accumulation and blockage, and ensures the stable conveying and service life of the unloading conveyor belt.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A robotic unloading conveyor belt includes a first section of conveyor belt, which includes a first support frame and a first belt disposed above the first support frame. Guide strips are provided on both the left and right sides above the first support frame, and the guide strips extend along the conveying direction of the first section of conveyor belt. The inner side of the guide strips extends to the top of the first belt, and the guide strips are in vertical contact with the first belt.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment, the system also includes a second belt conveyor, the input side of which is connected to the output side of the first belt conveyor.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment, guide plates are provided on both the left and right sides of the connection between the second section of the belt conveyor and the first section of the belt conveyor.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment, the second section of the belt conveyor includes a second support frame and a second belt disposed above the second support frame. A waste guide plate is disposed on the rear side of the second support frame, and the input side of the waste guide plate is connected to the output side of the second section of the belt conveyor.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment, the guide bar has an extension extending forward from the front side near the input side of the first belt conveyor, and the extension extends forward to the outside of the front side of the first belt.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment, the guide bar is detachably locked to the top of the first support frame by screws.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment, the guide bar includes several guide blocks, which are sequentially abutted together end to end along the conveying direction of the first section of the belt conveyor.

[0014] As a preferred embodiment, a flipping brush mechanism is provided above the input side of the first section of the belt conveyor. The flipping brush mechanism includes a flipping brush and a drive unit. The flipping brush is rotatably mounted on the first support frame and located above the first belt. The drive unit is mounted on the first support frame and drives the flipping brush to rotate.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has obvious advantages and beneficial effects. Specifically, as can be seen from the above technical solution, it mainly involves setting guide strips on both the left and right sides above the first support frame, with the inner side of the guide strips extending to the top of the first belt, and the guide strips contacting the first belt vertically. In this way, the guide strips can block the gaps on both sides of the belt, thereby preventing waste material from entering the gaps on both sides of the belt, thus avoiding the phenomenon of waste material accumulation and blockage, and ensuring the stable conveying and service life of the feeding belt conveyor.

[0032] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5 As shown, it illustrates the specific structure of an embodiment of the present invention.

[0033] A robotic unloading conveyor belt includes a first conveyor belt 10 and a second conveyor belt 20, with the input side of the second conveyor belt 20 connected to the output side of the first conveyor belt 10. The first conveyor belt 10 includes a first support frame 11 and a first belt 12 disposed above the first support frame 11. Guide strips 30 are provided on both the left and right sides above the first support frame 11, extending along the conveying direction of the first conveyor belt 10. The inner side of the guide strips 30 extends above the first belt 12, and the guide strips 30 are in vertical contact with the first belt 12. This allows the guide strips 30 to block the gaps on both sides of the belt, preventing waste material from entering these gaps and avoiding waste accumulation and blockage, thus ensuring stable conveying and extending the service life of the unloading conveyor belt. Furthermore, the belt has a certain degree of elasticity, so even when in contact with the guide strips 30, it will not cause excessive impact on the belt. The guide strips 30 can be heightened (compared to existing guide strips) to prevent some waste material strips from exceeding the guide strips 30 and falling off during conveying.

[0034] Guide plates 40 are provided on both the left and right sides of the connection between the second section of the belt conveyor 20 and the first section of the belt conveyor 10 to improve the stability of the conveying and reduce the phenomenon of the plates falling off at the transition between the two belt conveyors.

[0035] The second section of the conveyor belt 20 includes a second support frame 21 and a second belt 22 disposed above the second support frame 21. A waste guide plate 50 is disposed on the rear side of the second support frame 21. The input side of the waste guide plate 50 is connected to the output side of the second section of the conveyor belt 20. The waste guide plate 50 extends backward and downward at an angle. The waste guide plate 50 has a waste guide groove 51, which also extends backward and downward at an angle. The input side of the waste guide groove 51 is connected to the output side of the second belt 22. In this way, waste can be directly dropped onto the waste conveyor belt through the waste guide groove 51 of the waste guide plate 50, solving the problem that the end dust collection funnel of traditional conveyor belts cannot handle slightly larger waste, causing waste to accumulate on the dust collection funnel. Alternatively, the guide strip 30 can also be disposed on the second section of the conveyor belt 20 corresponding to the second belt 22.

[0036] The guide bar 30 extends forward integrally from the front side of the input side of the first belt conveyor 10 with an extension 31. The extension 31 extends forward to the front side of the first belt 12. The inner wall of the extension 31 is recessed outward and has a guide slope 32, which is more conducive to guiding the plate.

[0037] The guide strip 30 is detachably locked to the top of the first support frame 11 by screws, thus realizing the detachable assembly structure design of the guide strip 30, which can be replaced after the guide strip 30 is damaged; the guide strip 30 can be made of PVC board. In this embodiment, the guide strip 30 may include a plurality of guide blocks 33, which are sequentially abutted together end to end along the conveying direction of the first section of the belt conveyor 10. The guide blocks 33 are detachably locked to the first support frame 11 by screws. In this way, it is not necessary to make a long guide strip 30 as a whole, but only to set the corresponding number of guide blocks 33 according to the belt length of the belt conveyor and splice them into guide strip 30.

[0038] A rotating brush 60 mechanism is provided above the input side of the first section of the belt conveyor 10. The rotating brush 60 mechanism includes a rotating brush 60 and a drive unit. The rotating brush 60 is rotatably mounted on the first support frame 11 and located above the first belt 12. The drive unit is mounted on the first support frame 11 and drives the rotating brush 60 to rotate. In this embodiment, the drive unit is a cylinder 70. Two cylinders 70 are provided, and the two cylinders 70 are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the first support frame 11. The left and right ends of the rotating brush 60 are respectively connected to the two cylinders 70. Each cylinder 70 is connected to the rotating brush 60 through a linkage rod 80.

[0039] The aforementioned robotic unloading conveyor belt is used in conjunction with the CNC cutting machine in the intelligent cutting workstation. After the cutting machine finishes processing the board, it pushes the board out of the cutting machine's worktable and onto the unloading conveyor belt table behind it. At this point, the conveying speed of the unloading conveyor belt is the same as the pushing speed of the cutting machine. The flipping brush 60 mechanism above the unloading conveyor belt rotates the flipping brush 60 to contact the belt through the cylinder 70. This sweeps down the waste material that falls on the board during the cutting process, preventing it from affecting the robot's material handling. When the processed board is completely pushed onto the unloading conveyor belt, the robot takes out all the processed board and picks it up for the next process. At this time, the flipping brush 60 mechanism opens upward to pick up the waste material that was swept down by the brush, and together with the waste material left on the belt after the robot has picked up the material, it is transported to the second section conveyor belt 20 behind the unloading conveyor belt. Then, the waste material falls directly onto the waste material conveyor belt through the waste material guide groove 51 of the waste material guide plate 50.

[0040] In summary, the key design feature of this utility model is that guide strips are provided on both the left and right sides above the first support frame, with the inner side of the guide strips extending to the top of the first belt and in contact with the first belt vertically. In this way, the guide strips can block the gaps on both sides of the belt, thereby preventing waste material from entering the gaps on both sides of the belt, avoiding the phenomenon of waste material accumulation and blockage, and ensuring the stable conveying and service life of the feeding belt conveyor.

[0041] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and does not constitute any limitation on the technical scope of the present utility model. Therefore, any minor modifications, equivalent changes and alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model shall still fall within the scope of the technical solution of the present utility model.
