[0030] This utility model discloses a material bin transfer and conveying system, such as Figure 1-3 As shown, it includes a feeding mechanism 1, a first conveying component, a loading mechanism 4, a second conveying component, and a discharging mechanism.
[0031] The feeding mechanism 1 is used to dock with an external AGV and transport the material box received from the external AGV to the first conveying component. Specifically, the feeding mechanism 1 includes a first support 1.3 and a first conveying roller 1.2 mounted on the first support 1.3. The first conveying roller 1.2 can move up and down along the first support 1.3 under the action of a cylinder 1.4. A transfer component 1.1 that can be moved up and down is also provided between the first conveying rollers 1.2. The conveying direction of the transfer component 1.1 is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the first conveying rollers 1.2 and consistent with the conveying direction of the first conveying component.
[0032] The first conveying assembly is used to deliver the material box to the loading mechanism. Specifically, the first conveying assembly includes a second conveying roller 2 and a first material box detection sensor that is signal-connected to the drive assembly of the second conveying roller 2. The second conveying assembly is used to convey the material box filled with material to the unloading mechanism 6. The second conveying assembly includes a fourth conveying roller 5 arranged in the opposite direction to the conveying direction of the second conveying roller 2. Further, the first conveying assembly and the second conveying assembly are connected by a third conveying roller 3. The first conveying assembly and the second conveying assembly are arranged on the same side of the third conveying roller 3, that is, the second conveying roller 2 and the fourth conveying roller 5 are both connected to the same side of the third conveying roller 3. The loading mechanism 4 is arranged on the other side of the third conveying roller 3, and a side pushing assembly 7 is provided at the third conveying roller 3. The side pushing assembly 7 is used to push the material box on the third conveying roller 3 from one end to the other end.
[0033] The loading mechanism 4 is used to fill the material box with materials and detect whether the material box is full. Specifically, the loading mechanism 4 includes a loading belt 4.1 set on the second bracket 4.5, a discharge sensor 4.2 corresponding to the outlet end of the loading belt 4.1, and a second material box detection sensor 4.4 and a full material sensor 4.3 corresponding to the position of the material box.
[0034] The unloading mechanism 6 is used to dock with an external AGV and transport the material box received from the second conveying component to the external AGV. The unloading mechanism 6 has the same structural design as the loading mechanism 1.
[0035] In use, the material box conveying system of this utility model involves the cylinder 1.4 of the loading mechanism 1 moving the first conveying roller 1.2 to align with the outlet height of the external AGV based on an external AGV signal. At this time, the transfer component 1.1 is located below the first conveying roller 1.2. When the external AGV gives a positioning signal, the first conveying roller 1.2 starts rotating. When the material box is completely conveyed above the first conveying roller 1.2, that is, after the sensor embedded in the first conveying roller 1.2 senses the material box, the first conveying roller 1.2 stops rotating. At this time, a signal is sent to the external AGV, controlling the cylinder 1.4 to drive the material box into the conveying system. As the cylinder descends, the transplanting assembly 1.1 begins to rise. Once cylinder 1.4 is in position, the transplanting assembly 1.1 lifts the material box upwards, bringing it to the same height as the second conveying roller 2. Next, the second conveying roller 2 and the transplanting assembly 1.1 rotate together, transferring the material box from the transplanting assembly 1.1 onto the second conveying roller 2. A first material box detection sensor is located at the end of the second conveying roller 2. When the sensor detects that the material box is completely on the second conveying roller 2, the second conveying roller 2 stops rotating. Simultaneously, the feeding mechanism 1 resets, awaiting the arrival of a new material box. At this time, the first... If the material bin detection sensor 4.4 detects no material bin, the second conveyor roller 2 and the third conveyor roller 3 will simultaneously start rotating forward. After the material bin reaches the front end, the side pushing mechanism 7 will start, pushing the material bin to the other end of the third conveyor roller 3, that is, aligned with the loading mechanism 4 and the fourth conveyor roller 5. At this time, the second material bin detection sensor 4.4 will continuously sense the signal, and the loading belt 4.1 can convey the material on it into the material bin in a normal rhythm. When the material is piled up to the height of triggering the full material sensor 4.3, the third conveyor roller 3 will start rotating in the opposite direction, cooperating with the fourth conveyor roller 5 to fill the material bin. The material box is conveyed backward to the fourth conveyor roller 5. At this time, if there is no material box on the unloading mechanism 6, the conveyor roller 5 and the transfer component in the rising state on the unloading mechanism 6 rotate backward at the same time to convey the material box full of material to the transfer component of the unloading mechanism 6. When the material box is in place, the transfer component descends and the material box falls on the fifth conveyor roller of the lifting mechanism 6. At this time, the unloading mechanism 6 determines whether it needs to rise according to the docking signal of the external AGV. If it needs to rise, the cylinder is started, and the material box is lifted by the fifth conveyor roller. After it is in place, the fifth conveyor roller starts to convey the material to the external AGV.
[0036] In summary, the material box transfer and conveying system provided by this utility model has the advantages of simple structure, stability and reliability, convenience and effectiveness, improved production efficiency, and saving manpower and material resources. It has great market value and is worthy of widespread promotion and application.

Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
