Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. The following description of at least one exemplary embodiment is merely illustrative and is in no way intended to limit the present utility model or its application or use. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model.
[0016] It should be noted that the terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to limit the exemplary embodiments according to this application. As used herein, the singular form is intended to include the plural form as well, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. Furthermore, it should be understood that when the terms "comprising" and / or "including" are used in this specification, they indicate the presence of features, steps, operations, devices, components, and / or combinations thereof.
[0017] Unless otherwise specifically stated, the relative arrangement, numerical expressions, and values of the components and steps described in these embodiments do not limit the scope of this invention. It should also be understood that, for ease of description, the dimensions of the various parts shown in the drawings are not drawn to actual scale. Techniques, methods, and devices known to those skilled in the art may not be discussed in detail, but where appropriate, such techniques, methods, and devices should be considered part of the specification. In all examples shown and discussed herein, any specific values should be interpreted as merely exemplary and not as limitations. Therefore, other examples of exemplary embodiments may have different values. It should be noted that similar reference numerals and letters in the following drawings denote similar items; therefore, once an item is defined in one drawing, it need not be further discussed in subsequent drawings.
[0018] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the directional terms such as "front, back, up, down, left, right", "horizontal, vertical, horizontal" and "top, bottom" indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description. Unless otherwise stated, these directional terms do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation on the scope of protection of this utility model. The directional terms "inner" and "outer" refer to the inner and outer contours of each component itself.
[0019] For ease of description, spatial relative terms such as "above," "on top of," "on the upper surface of," "above," etc., are used herein to describe the spatial positional relationship of a device or feature as shown in the figures to other devices or features. It should be understood that spatial relative terms are intended to encompass different orientations in use or operation beyond the orientation of the device as described in the figures. For example, if the device in the figures were inverted, a device described as "above" or "on top of" other devices or structures would subsequently be positioned as "below" or "under" other devices or structures. Thus, the exemplary term "above" can include both "above" and "below." The device may also be positioned in other different ways (rotated 90 degrees or in other orientations), and the spatial relative descriptions used herein will be interpreted accordingly.
[0020] Furthermore, it should be noted that the use of terms such as "first" and "second" to define components is merely for the purpose of distinguishing the corresponding components. Unless otherwise stated, the above terms have no special meaning and therefore cannot be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0021] like Figures 1 to 13 As shown, a pallet conveying mechanism includes a loading chamber 1, a conveyor line 3, and a unloading chamber 4. The loading chamber 1 and the unloading chamber 4 are located at the beginning and end of the conveyor line 3, respectively. A roller conveying mechanism 6 is also provided between the loading chamber 1 and the conveyor line 3. A three-axis robot 2 is provided at both the loading chamber 1 and the unloading chamber 4. A rotary positioning mechanism 5 is also provided on one side of the three-axis robot 2. Roller assemblies 7 are provided in the unloading chamber 4 and on the rotary positioning mechanism 5 and the roller conveying mechanism 6. On the loading side, the rotary positioning mechanism 5 drives the roller assembly 7 on it to rotate so as to dock with the roller assembly 7 on the roller conveying mechanism 6. On the unloading side, the rotary positioning mechanism 5 drives the roller assembly 7 on it to rotate so as to dock with the roller assembly 7 in the unloading chamber 4.
[0022] During operation, a tray containing capacitors is placed on a rotary positioning mechanism 5. The dried capacitors are removed from the tray by a three-axis robot at the loading chamber 1. The roller assembly on the tray is rotated 90° by the rotary positioning mechanism 5 and then docked with the roller assembly 7 on the roller conveying mechanism 6. The tray is then conveyed to the unloading chamber 4 by the conveyor line 3. The roller assembly 7 on the tray is rotated 90° by the rotary positioning mechanism 5 to dock with the roller assembly 7 inside the unloading chamber 4, thus conveying the empty tray out of the unloading chamber 4. Then, the three-axis robot 2 places the capacitors to be dried onto the tray, and the roller assembly 7 on the tray is rotated 90° by the rotary positioning mechanism 5 for subsequent drying.
[0023] In one embodiment, a glove box 8 is provided on one side of the unloading chamber 4, and the three-axis robot 2 and the rotary positioning mechanism 5 at the unloading chamber 4 are both placed inside the glove box 8, while the three-axis robot 2 and the rotary positioning mechanism 5 at the loading chamber 1 are both placed inside the loading chamber 1.

Several first pneumatic fingers 22 are mounted on the rotary cylinder 24 via pneumatic finger mounting plates, and the rotary cylinder 24 is connected to the XYZ linear module 21 via an adapter plate 25. The positioning pins 23 are mounted on the adapter plate 25 and are inserted into the positioning holes of the pneumatic finger mounting plate under the drive of the cylinder. The second pneumatic fingers... The first pneumatic finger 22 and the second pneumatic finger 26 are mounted on opposite ends of the pneumatic finger mounting plate. The first pneumatic finger 22 is used to grip the capacitor. When gripping the capacitor, the first pneumatic finger 22 is driven downward by the rotary cylinder 24, and then the positioning pin 23 is inserted into the positioning hole of the pneumatic finger mounting plate by the cylinder for subsequent gripping. Since the capacitors are arranged in a matrix on the tray, the first pneumatic fingers 22 are also arranged in a matrix, and their number matches the number of capacitors. Of course, considering that a large number of first pneumatic fingers 22 are required for one gripping, it can also be gripped in multiple times, such as when there are 10 capacitors on the tray. If 10, then the first pneumatic finger 22 can be 10. 2. This allows for five gripping operations. When gripping an empty pallet, the rotary cylinder 24 drives the second pneumatic finger 26 downwards. Then, the positioning pin 23 is inserted into the positioning hole of the pneumatic finger mounting plate by the cylinder for subsequent gripping. The empty pallet is gripped by the second pneumatic finger 26.
