Description

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tobacco manufacturing technology, and in particular to an auxiliary device for calibrating reference points of a cigarette finished product unpacking and palletizing robot. Background Technology

[0002] In standard box material palletizing and depalletizing logistics solutions, AGVs (Automated Guided Vehicles) are commonly used to transport pallets to the robot's workstation, where the robot then depalletizes and depalletizes the standard boxes. In this solution, the AGV pick-up point, the robot's pallet reference point, and the robot's depalletizing reference point must be aligned to ensure accurate depalletizing of the standard boxes from the pallet. If these three points are not aligned, the robot's pallet reference point and depalletizing reference point must be adjusted using the AGV pick-up point as a reference.

[0003] The existing calibration method requires placing the pallet on the workstation, aligning the center of the pallet with the AGV pick-up point, using the center of the pallet as a reference point for the robot pallet. Then, the robot's TCP (suction cup center point) is moved to the pallet reference point, and the actual position of the robot is observed and judged to see if it coincides with the center of the pallet. The method of determining the center point of the suction cup is to measure the distance of the robot suction cup on the pallet in all directions with a ruler, and continuously adjust the robot suction cup until the center point of the suction cup is aligned with the center of the pallet. The repeated dimensional measurements greatly reduce the calibration efficiency.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a reference point correction auxiliary device for cigarette finished product depalletizing and palletizing robots to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0028] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this utility model provides a reference point calibration auxiliary device for a cigarette depalletizing and palletizing robot. The reference point calibration auxiliary device for the cigarette depalletizing and palletizing robot includes: a pick-up and drop-off point marker assembly and a robot suction cup center marker assembly.

[0029] Specifically, the pick-up and drop-off point marker assembly includes a first base 1 and a first positioning element 2. The first positioning element 2 is installed at the center of the first base 1, which is located at the exact center of the pick-up and drop-off point. The robot suction cup center marker assembly includes a second base 3 and a second positioning element 4. The second positioning element 4 is installed at the center of the second base 3, which can be attracted by the robot suction cup. The first positioning element 2 can be aligned with the second positioning element 4. Compared to existing technologies, this device, by setting the first base 1 at the exact center of the pick-up and drop-off point and using the first positioning element 2 as a reference point, allows the robot suction cup to be attracted to the second base 3. By moving the robot, the first positioning element 2 and the second positioning element 4 are aligned, thereby modifying the coordinate values ​​of the robot's reference point and completing the robot's reference point correction. The robot suction cup center marker assembly and the robot suction cup can be set up without installation, making it quick and efficient to use. This eliminates the need for handling pallets and repeated measurements, greatly improving correction efficiency.

[0030] Optionally, the pick-up and drop-off point marker assembly also includes a bracket 5, which is connected between the first base 1 and the first positioning member 2. This arrangement raises the height of the first positioning member 2, making it easier to observe the first positioning member 2.

[0031] Furthermore, the support 5 includes a first connecting member 51 and a second connecting member 52. One end of the first connecting member 51 is fixed to the first base 1, and one end of the second connecting member 52 is slidably connected to the other end of the first connecting member 51. The first positioning member 2 is fixed to the other end of the second connecting member 52. Specifically, the second connecting member 52 slides through the first connecting member 51. The cross-sections of both the first connecting member 51 and the second connecting member 52 are circular. The support 5 adopts a telescopic rod design, which can adjust the height according to different scenarios, improving the versatility of the reference point correction auxiliary device for the cigarette finished product unpacking and palletizing robot. Furthermore, the second connecting member 52 is provided with a first scale, which can improve the accuracy of the extension and retraction of the second connecting member 52.

[0032] Optionally, the first base 1 is provided with a second scale, and the first base 1 is positioned at the exact center of the pick-up and drop-off point via the second scale. Specifically, the second scale is located on the outer periphery of the first positioning member 2, which facilitates alignment with the pick-up and drop-off point of the AGV.

[0033] Optionally, the first positioning element 2 is a first pointed cone. Specifically, the second positioning element 4 is a second pointed cone. This arrangement facilitates visual observation of the reference point.

[0034] Optionally, the second base 3 is a flat plate. With this configuration, the second base 3 adopts a flat plate design, which can be directly suctioned by the robot's own suction cup, allowing the second base 3 to be directly attached to the suction cup. The second base 3 has a second positioning element 4 in the center, which is easy to observe with the naked eye.

[0035] The usage process of the reference point calibration auxiliary device for the cigarette finished product unpacking and palletizing robot provided by this utility model is as follows:

[0036] 1. Place the first base 1 of the pick-up and drop-off point marker assembly on the pick-up and drop-off point of the AGV, and align the second scale on the first base 1 with the center of the pick-up and drop-off point.

[0037] 2. Place the second base 3 of the robot suction cup center mark component in the center of the robot suction cup and press it down. At the same time, turn on the robot suction cup, and the second base 3 will be automatically installed on the robot suction cup.

[0038] 3. Move the center point of the robot's suction cup to the calibration reference point;

[0039] 4. After the operation is completed, observe whether the tips of the first positioning component 2 and the second positioning component 4 can be aligned. If they are not aligned, move the center point of the robot suction cup to align the tips. After alignment, modify the coordinate value of the robot reference point to complete the robot reference point correction.

[0040] Furthermore, the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and the technical principles employed. Those skilled in the art will understand that the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments described herein, and various obvious changes, readjustments, and substitutions can be made without departing from the protection scope of the present invention.
