Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of packaging bag equipment, specifically relating to a packaging bag stacking and sorting machine for food packaging processing. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of the food industry, packaging bags, as an important carrier of food packaging, directly affect the operating costs and market competitiveness of food companies through their production efficiency and quality. In the food packaging process, the stacking, sorting, packing, and transportation of packaging bags are indispensable key steps.

[0003] In actual production, multiple packaging bags are typically stacked and arranged manually before being packed into boxes. However, this manual operation mode has many drawbacks. On the one hand, due to limitations in human physiology, manual packing is slow and cannot meet the demands of large-scale, high-efficiency modern production, thus hindering the improvement of enterprise capacity. On the other hand, manual stacking and packing requires a large amount of labor, and with labor costs rising year by year, the production costs of enterprises have increased significantly. Although some factories have adopted mechanized equipment, the common practice is to place collection boxes at the end of the conveyor belt and rely on the gravity of the falling food packaging bags to achieve packing. This method often results in messy and disorganized stacking of packaging bags. Utility Model Content

[0004] The present invention aims to provide a packaging bag stacking and sorting machine for food packaging processing, so as to solve the problems of low efficiency and high cost of manual labor.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides a packaging bag stacking and sorting machine for food packaging processing, comprising a frame, the frame including staggered feeding platforms and conveyor platforms, conveyor rollers rotatably mounted on the feeding platforms and conveyor platforms, and a conveyor belt wound around the conveyor rollers; and a sorting device, the sorting device having at least one positioning groove and a telescopic rod, the positioning groove being located at the end of the feeding platform and above the conveyor platform, an opening being provided below the positioning groove, and a baffle unit being provided at the opening below the positioning groove, the baffle unit including a right baffle and a left baffle. The plate, the right baffle and the left baffle are rotatably connected to the positioning groove. The ends of the right baffle and the left baffle extend to the outside of the positioning groove and are fixedly connected to the right arm and the left arm. The side of the right arm away from the right baffle and the fixed connection point of the right arm is hinged to the telescopic end of the telescopic rod. The side of the right arm away from the telescopic end and the hinge point of the right arm is hinged to the first connecting rod. The end of the first connecting rod away from the right arm is hinged to the left arm. The boxing device is located on one side of the transport platform. The boxing device is equipped with a mechanical arm. The gripping end of the mechanical arm is equipped with several suction cups.

[0006] The working principle and beneficial effects of this solution are as follows: During operation, food packaging bags are placed on the conveyor belt of the feeding platform. As the conveyor rollers rotate, the conveyor belt carries the packaging bags forward. When the food packaging bags reach the end of the feeding platform, they fall into the positioning slot of the sorting device. The positioning slot can position and sort the food packaging bags, arranging them neatly. When the telescopic rod extends, it pushes the right lever arm to rotate. The right lever arm drives the right side baffle to rotate clockwise. The first connecting rod drives the left lever arm to rotate, and the left lever arm drives the left side baffle to rotate counterclockwise. This opens the baffle unit, allowing the food packaging bags in the positioning slot to fall onto the conveyor belt of the transport platform below. Afterward, the telescopic rod retracts, and the baffle unit returns to its original position and closes. The food packaging bags fall onto the conveyor belt of the transport platform and continue to be conveyed forward to the boxing device. At this time, the robotic arm of the boxing device uses the suction cup at the gripping end to pick up the food packaging bags, grab them, and place them into the packaging boxes to complete the boxing operation.

[0007] In terms of beneficial effects, (1) the automatic transfer of packaging bags is achieved through the combination of the feeding platform, the conveyor platform, and the conveyor belt and conveyor rollers, reducing manual handling and improving production efficiency; (2) the positioning slot of the sorting device can effectively regulate the arrangement of packaging bags, avoid the situation of packaging bags being stacked messily, and ensure the accuracy of the robotic arm's gripping; (3) the boxing device uses a robotic arm in conjunction with suction cups to grip packaging bags, which is more efficient than manual boxing, reduces labor intensity, and also reduces packaging bag damage or boxing errors caused by human operation errors. This solution saves production costs, improves production efficiency, and has good practicality and economic benefits.

[0008] Optionally, multiple sets of baffle units are provided at the opening below the positioning groove, and adjacent sets of baffle units are connected by a second connecting rod, with both ends of the second connecting rod hinged to the right lever arm. In this way, only one telescopic rod is needed to control the opening and closing of multiple baffle units of the positioning groove via the second connecting rod.

[0009] Optionally, a box-carrying device is provided on one side of the box-packing device. The box-carrying device includes a first push-pull rod, a bracket, a transport rail, a first conveyor table, and a second conveyor table. A first push plate is connected to the working end of the first push-pull rod. The second conveyor table is located on the lower side of the first conveyor table near the robotic arm. The bracket is located on the side of the second conveyor table. The first push-pull rod is fixedly connected to the bracket, and the transport rail is fixedly connected to the bracket. The first push plate of the first push-pull rod pushes the empty box on the first conveyor table onto the transport rail. Then, the empty box slides down the transport rail to the second conveyor table below. After the robotic arm fills the empty box, the second conveyor table continues to transport the boxes filled with food packaging bags to the subsequent workstation.

[0010] Optionally, the box transport device is equipped with a third conveyor platform, which is parallel to the second conveyor platform. The second conveyor platform is fixedly connected to a second push-pull rod, and a second push plate is connected to the working end of the second push-pull rod. After the robotic arm fills the empty boxes on the second conveyor platform, the filled boxes continue to be transported on the second conveyor platform for a certain distance. Then, the second push plate of the second push-pull rod transfers the boxes filled with food packaging bags on the second conveyor platform to the third conveyor platform, which then continues to transport the boxes filled with food packaging bags to the subsequent workstation.

[0011] Optionally, one end of the positioning slot is equipped with a processing module and an infrared sensor integrating a transmitter and a receiver. The infrared sensor is signal-connected to the processing module, and the processing module is signal-connected to the telescopic rod. When a food packaging bag on the baffle blocks the infrared light, causing the distance detected by the infrared sensor to shorten, the processing module connected to the infrared sensor sends a command to the telescopic rod, which extends and opens the baffle. When the food packaging bag falls off, the distance detected by the infrared sensor increases, and the processing module connected to the infrared sensor sends a command to the telescopic rod, which retracts and the baffle returns to its original position.

[0012] Optionally, the robotic arm of the packing device is equipped with a vision recognition system, which includes a camera and a transmission module. Both the camera and the transmission module are connected to the processing module via signals. The camera is used to capture the traceability code on the food packaging bag, the processing module performs intermediate processing on the captured traceability code, and the transmission module is used to transmit the information of each batch of food packaging bags to the cloud.

[0013] Optionally, a guide plate is provided at one end of the feeding platform near the sorting device, and the guide plate is inclined towards the positioning slot. The guide plate can guide the packaging bag to smoothly enter the positioning slot, avoid the packaging bag from getting stuck or piling up at the end of the feeding platform, and ensure the smooth transfer of the packaging bag.

Detailed Implementation

[0015] The following detailed description illustrates the specific implementation method: The markings in the accompanying drawings include: feed platform 1, conveyor roller 11, conveyor belt 12, conveyor belt drive device 13, guide plate 14, positioning groove 15, left side baffle 16, left lever arm 161, right side baffle 17, right lever arm 171, telescopic rod 18, first connecting rod 19, second connecting rod 191, transport platform 2, robotic arm 3, suction cup 31, bracket 4, first push-pull rod 41, first push plate 411, transport guide rail 42, first conveyor platform 43, second conveyor platform 44, third conveyor platform 45, and second push-pull rod 46.

[0016] Example This embodiment is basically as follows: Figures 1-5 As shown: A packaging bag stacking and sorting machine for food packaging processing includes a frame, a sorting device, a boxing device, and a box transport device.

[0017] like Figure 1 As shown, the frame includes staggered feeding platforms 1 and conveyor platforms 2. Conveyor rollers 11 are rotatably mounted on the feeding platforms 1 and conveyor platforms 2, and conveyor belts 12 are wound around the conveyor rollers 11. The conveyor rollers 11 are driven by a conveyor belt drive device 13. After the conveyor belt drive device 13 is started, the conveyor rollers 11 on the feeding platforms 1 and conveyor platforms 2 begin to rotate, driving the conveyor belts 12 to smoothly transport the food packaging bags forward. A guide plate 14 is provided at one end of the feeding platform 1 near the sorting device, and the guide plate 14 is inclined towards the positioning groove 15. The guide plate 14 accurately guides the food packaging bags into the positioning groove 15 of the sorting device, preventing the food packaging bags from getting stuck or shifting at the end of the feeding platform 1.

[0018] like Figures 2-4As shown, the sorting device has a positioning groove 15 and a telescopic rod 18. The telescopic rod 18 is driven by hydraulic, pneumatic or electric means; in this embodiment, it is a cylinder. The positioning groove 15 is located at the end of the feeding platform 1, and the opening of the positioning groove 15 is located above the conveyor platform 2. An opening is provided below the positioning groove 15, and two sets of baffle units are provided at the opening below the positioning groove 15. One set of baffle units includes a left baffle 16 and a right baffle 17. The right baffle 17 and the left baffle 16 are rotatably connected to the positioning groove 15. The ends of the right baffle 17 and the left baffle 16 extend to the outside of the positioning groove 15 and are fixedly connected to a right lever arm 171 and a left lever arm 16. 1. The right lever arm 171, on the side away from the fixed connection, is hinged to the telescopic end of the telescopic rod 18. A first connecting rod 19 is hinged to the side of the right lever arm 171 away from the telescopic end and the hinge point. The end of the first connecting rod 19 away from the right lever arm 171 is hinged to the left lever arm 161. Adjacent baffle units are connected by a second connecting rod 191, with both ends of the second connecting rod 191 hinged to the right lever arm 171. One end of the positioning slot 15 is equipped with a processing module and an E18-D80NK infrared sensor integrating transmission and reception. The infrared sensor is electrically connected to the processing module via an aviation connector, and the controller is signal-connected to the telescopic rod 18. When a food packaging bag enters the positioning slot 15, the positioning slot 15 precisely positions and arranges it, ensuring that the food packaging bag is neatly arranged after falling onto the transport table 2, facilitating gripping by the robotic arm 3. When a food packaging bag falls onto the baffle and reaches a certain height, it blocks the infrared light, causing the infrared sensor to detect a shorter distance. The processing module connected to the infrared sensor sends a command to the telescopic rod 18, which extends and pushes the right arm 171 to rotate. The right arm 171 then rotates the right baffle 17 clockwise. The first connecting rod 19 drives the left arm 161 to rotate, which in turn rotates the left baffle 16 counterclockwise. This opens the baffle unit, allowing the food packaging bag in the positioning slot 15 to fall onto the conveyor belt 12 of the lower transport platform 2. After the food packaging bag falls, the infrared sensor detects a longer distance, and the processing module connected to the infrared sensor sends a command to the telescopic rod 18, which retracts, closing the baffle again to prepare for receiving the next batch of food packaging bags. Furthermore, the E18-D80NK infrared sensor is not only inexpensive and easy to install, but also has the function of counting the detected food packaging bags.

[0019] like Figure 1 As shown, the packing device is located on one side of the transport platform 2. The packing device is equipped with a robotic arm 3, and the gripping end of the robotic arm 3 is equipped with a suction cup 31. In this embodiment, the suction cup 31 is an air suction cup 31, which uses the change in vacuum between the inside of the suction cup 31 and the food packaging bag to grip or place the food packaging bag. The robotic arm 3 of the packing device is equipped with a vision recognition system, which includes a camera and a transmission module. The camera and the transmission module are both connected to the processing module, and the connection relationship is as follows. Figure 5As shown, when the food packaging bags are transported to the transport platform 2 near the packing device, the camera on the robotic arm 3 quickly captures the traceability code on the food packaging bags. The camera's data output then transmits the image information to the processing module, which processes the traceability code. The processing module's output then transmits the information of the food packaging bags to the transmission module, which transmits the relevant information of this batch of food packaging bags to the cloud. The cloud then analyzes, processes, and stores the relevant information. Subsequently, the gripping end of the robotic arm 3 uses suction cups 31 to pick up the food packaging bags from the transport platform 2 and place them into empty packaging boxes located on the second conveyor platform 44.

[0020] like Figure 5 As shown, a box-carrying device is provided on one side of the box-carrying device. The box-carrying device includes a first push-pull rod 41, a bracket 4, a transport rail 42, a first conveyor platform 43, and a second conveyor platform 44. A first push plate 411 is connected to the working end of the first push-pull rod 41. The second conveyor platform 44 is located on the lower side of the first conveyor platform 43 near the robotic arm 3. The bracket 4 is located on the side of the second conveyor platform 44. The first push-pull rod 41 is fixedly connected to the bracket 4, and the transport rail 42 is fixedly connected to the bracket 4. The box-carrying device also has a third conveyor platform 45, which is parallel to the second conveyor platform 44. A second push-pull rod 46 is fixedly connected to the second conveyor platform 44, and a second push plate is connected to the working end of the second push-pull rod 46. Empty boxes on the first conveyor platform 43 are transferred to the transport rail 42 under the action of the first push plate 411 on the first push-pull rod 41. The empty boxes slide down the transport rail 42 onto the second conveyor platform 44 below. After the robotic arm 3 fills the empty box on the second conveyor 44, the box filled with food packaging bags continues to be transported on the second conveyor 44 for a distance. At this time, the second push plate on the second push-pull rod 46 transfers the box to the third conveyor 45, which is parallel to the second conveyor 44. The third conveyor 45 then transports the filled box to the subsequent packaging and storage station.
