Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of box-type material conveying technology, specifically relating to a box-standing device in a box conveying line. Background Technology
[0002] In modern logistics systems, automated loading systems have become a key element in improving loading and unloading efficiency and reducing labor intensity. These systems typically use conveyor lines to continuously transport boxed materials from the production workshop to the freight car compartment for automatic stacking. However, in practice, due to the varying widths and heights of the boxed materials, stacking them all in the same flat position as when they left the factory often creates numerous unused gaps within the car compartment. This leads to decreased space utilization, reduced load capacity per vehicle, and consequently, increased transportation costs.
[0003] To maximize the use of the car's volume, the containers need to be arranged in a mixed layout, that is, some containers are adjusted to an upright position and interleaved with flat containers to fill gaps and make full use of the car's space. Therefore, in the automated loading process, a special container posture conversion device needs to be introduced, which can automatically change the designated containers from a flat position to an upright position on the conveyor line to adapt to the mixed stacking requirements. Utility Model Content
[0004] This invention addresses the problem that existing automated loading systems lack a box orientation conversion function in their conveyor lines, making it impossible to stand up boxes that are being transported horizontally and adapt them for mixed stacking in automated loading systems.
[0005] The present invention provides the following technical solution: a box erection device in a box conveyor line, comprising a conveyor belt, a limiting push plate and an inclined belt, the inclined belt being located on the left side of the conveyor belt, the inclined belt being connected to a left linear push mechanism, the left linear push mechanism driving the inclined belt to enter or leave above the conveyor belt. The inclined belt enters the state above the conveyor belt. Along the conveyor belt's conveying direction, the inclined belt is lower at the front and higher at the back. The front end of the inclined belt is below the conveyor belt surface, and the rear end of the inclined belt is offset upward along a straight line to the right side of the conveyor belt. The conveyor belt surface of the inclined belt is upward and inclined to the right. A side baffle is provided on the right side of the conveyor belt opposite the rear end of the inclined belt. The distance between the rear end of the inclined belt and the side baffle is the passage width after the box is erected. The limiting push plate is located on the right side of the conveyor belt and is connected to the right straight pushing mechanism. The limiting push plate is used to push the box on the conveyor belt toward the inclined belt. The box pushed by the conveyor belt is simultaneously lifted along the inclined belt and finally stands upright against the side baffle.
[0006] Furthermore, the limiting push plate is provided with a guide plate that is inclined to the right side of the conveyor belt at one end of the conveyor belt in the material direction.
[0007] Furthermore, the left linear pushing mechanism includes a first guide rod, a first linear driver, and a first connecting frame; the first connecting frame is connected to the belt frame of the conveyor belt, the first linear driver and the first guide rod are arranged one above the other, the fixed part of the first linear driver is fixedly connected to the first connecting frame, the working end of the first linear driver is connected to the belt frame of the inclined belt, the first guide rod is slidably inserted into the guide sleeve on the first connecting frame, and the end of the first guide rod is connected to the belt frame of the inclined belt.
[0008] Furthermore, the right linear pushing mechanism includes a second guide rod, a second linear driver, and a second connecting frame; the second connecting frame is connected to the belt frame of the conveyor belt, the second guide rod and the second linear driver are arranged one in front of the other, the fixed part of the second linear driver is fixedly connected to the second connecting frame, the working end of the second linear driver is connected to the limiting push plate, the second guide rod is slidably inserted into the guide sleeve on the second connecting frame, and the end of the second guide rod is connected to the limiting push plate.
[0009] Furthermore, the first linear actuator is a cylinder.
[0010] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are: This utility model provides a box-standing device for a box conveyor line, integrated into the automatic conveyor line. During the conveying process, it automatically completes the posture change of designated boxes without manual intervention or the establishment of a separate transfer and sorting stage. This makes the entire process from outbound to loading continuous and efficient, significantly shortening loading time and improving the overall logistics cycle time. The conveyor belt is embedded in the automatic conveyor line, ensuring continuous and uninterrupted box conveying. The inclined belt, driven by the left linear pushing mechanism, can move in and out within the conveyor belt range without interfering with the conveying of flat boxes. When a box needs to be stood up, the box smoothly completes the posture change during movement under the action of the inclined belt, guide plate, and side baffle. Conveying is uninterrupted when the box is standing up, and the standing up of the box does not interfere with the normal operation of the automatic conveyor line. Attached Figure Description
