Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of handling equipment technology, and in particular to a plastic box handling device. Background Technology
[0002] In order to improve space utilization during the circulation of plastic boxes, the plastic boxes can be stacked one on top of the other, and multiple plastic boxes can be transported and stored simultaneously.
[0003] While robotic arms and grippers can be used to handle plastic crates, they can only grip the bottom crates. Because there are no reliable locking mechanisms between stacked crates, the upper crates are unstable and prone to falling during transport, posing a significant safety hazard and requiring improvement. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a plastic box handling device for handling multiple stacked plastic boxes, thereby improving the stability of the handling process.
[0005] To achieve this objective, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A plastic box handling device includes: a movable base, a robotic arm, a rotating base, clamping plates, a guide rail, and vacuum suction cups. The robotic arm is mounted on the movable base, the rotating base is located at the end of the robotic arm, the clamping plates are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the front end of the rotating base and extend laterally, the top of both ends of the plastic box are provided with laterally extending ribs, the bottom edge of the middle of the ribs is recessed with a slot, the clamping plates are provided with upwardly extending locking blocks corresponding to the slots, the guide rail is vertically arranged inside the clamping plates, the guide rail is provided with multiple suction cup mounting seats distributed vertically at intervals, and the vacuum suction cups are mounted on the suction cup mounting seats and extend laterally.
[0006] It also includes an electric slide table, and the movable seat is mounted on the electric slide table.
[0007] The clamp plate is provided with top blocks that extend upward and are located on both sides of the card block.
[0008] The guide rail is provided with a sliding groove, and the sliding groove is provided with a slider that corresponds one-to-one with the suction cup mounting base. The suction cup mounting base is provided with screws that connect to the sliders.
[0009] The suction cup mounting base is an L-shaped bent plate.
[0010] The distance between two adjacent suction cup mounting seats on the guide rail corresponds to the height difference between two adjacent plastic boxes stacked on top of each other.
[0011] The vacuum suction cup is a spring-type vacuum suction cup. During transportation, the vacuum suction cup contacts the back of the plastic box for adsorption and fixation.
[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: A plastic box handling device uses clamping plates to hold the bottom plastic box on both sides, and utilizes the cooperation of slots and blocks to improve the stability of the cooperation. It uses vacuum suction cups to adsorb the sides of the upper plastic box, which improves the stability during the handling process and avoids the problem of falling. It realizes the safe handling of multiple plastic boxes stacked on top of each other and improves work efficiency. Attached Figure Description
[0013] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of this utility model; Figure 2 This is a structural schematic diagram of the present invention when handling plastic boxes; Figure 3 yes Figure 1 A magnified view of part A in the middle. Detailed Implementation
[0014] The following is combined Figures 1-3 The technical solution of this utility model will be further illustrated through specific embodiments.
[0015] like Figure 1 The plastic box handling device shown is used for handling multiple stacked plastic boxes 11. It includes: a movable base 1, a robotic arm 2, a rotating base 3, a clamping plate 4, a guide rail 7, a vacuum suction cup 9, and an electric slide table 10. The robotic arm 2 is mounted on the movable base 1, and the movable base 1 is mounted on the electric slide table 10. The operation of the electric slide table 10 can be controlled by a PLC controller, which drives the movement of the movable base 1 and the robotic arm 2.
[0016] The rotating seat 3 is set at the end of the robotic arm 2. The robotic arm 2 can be a six-axis robotic arm, which is highly flexible and enables the rotating seat 3 to move flexibly.
[0017] The clamping plates 4 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the front end of the rotating seat 3 and extend laterally, as shown in Figure 2. The plastic box 11 has inclined surfaces extending inward and downward on both sides, which facilitates the movement of the clamping plates 4 to the lowermost sides of the plastic box 11 and achieves clamping of the plastic box 11 during the upward movement.
[0018] Laterally extending stiffening plates 12 are provided at the top of both ends of the plastic box 11. The stiffening plates 12 can improve the structural strength of the frame of the plastic box 11. In this embodiment, a groove 13 is recessed in the bottom edge of the middle of the stiffening plate 12. The clamping plate 4 is provided with an upwardly extending locking block 6 corresponding to the groove 13. The cooperation between the groove 13 and the locking block 6 improves the stability of the cooperation between the clamping plate 4 and the stiffening plate 12 and avoids the problem of loosening.
[0019] In this embodiment, the clamping plate 4 is provided with top blocks 5 extending upward and located on both sides of the clamping block 6. The top blocks 5 contact the bottom of the stiffening plate 12 and apply an upward lifting force to realize the transportation of the stiffening plate 12 and the plastic box 11.
[0020] To improve the stability of the upper plastic box, the guide rail 7 is vertically positioned inside the clamping plate 4 and behind the top block 5, so as not to affect the lifting of the stiffening plate 12 by the top block 5. The guide rail 7 is equipped with multiple suction cup mounting seats 8 spaced vertically apart. The vacuum suction cup 9 is mounted on the suction cup mounting seats 8 and extends laterally to achieve suction of the upper plastic box, preventing it from falling during transport.
[0021] like Figure 3 As shown, the suction cup mounting base 8 is made of an L-shaped bent plate, which can be formed by bending steel plates and has high strength. The guide rail 7 is provided with a sliding groove 14, and the sliding groove 14 is provided with a slider 15 corresponding to the suction cup mounting base 8. The suction cup mounting base 8 is provided with a screw 16 connected to the slider 15, which facilitates the movement, adjustment and fastening of the suction cup mounting base 8, thereby changing the position of the vacuum suction cup 9 to adapt to plastic boxes 11 of different heights.
[0022] In this embodiment, the vacuum suction cup 9 is a spring-loaded vacuum suction cup. During transport, the vacuum suction cup 9 elastically contacts the back of the plastic box 11 for adsorption and fixation. Figure 2 As shown, during transport, the rotating seat 3 tilts backward, allowing the back of the plastic box 11 to fully contact the vacuum suction cup 9, achieving stable adsorption. The working principle of the vacuum suction cup 9: The vacuum suction cup 9 is connected to a vacuum generator via an air tube. After the vacuum generator is activated, the air inside the vacuum suction cup is removed, creating a vacuum state, thus adsorbing the back of the plastic box 11. When the vacuum generator is turned off, air is injected into the air tube, restoring the internal air pressure of the vacuum suction cup 9 to atmospheric pressure, allowing the plastic box 11 to be released. In addition, the spacing between two adjacent suction cup mounting seats 8 on the guide rail 7 corresponds to the height difference between two adjacent plastic boxes 11 stacked on top of each other, so that each plastic box above, except for the bottom plastic box 11, can be attracted and fixed by the vacuum suction cup 9 on the corresponding suction cup mounting seat 8, ensuring the stability of the transportation process.
[0023] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of this utility model. For those skilled in the art, there will be changes in the specific implementation method and application scope based on the idea of this utility model. The content of this specification should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.
