All other embodiments, which can be made by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the application without making any inventive effort, are intended to be within the scope of the application. It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments of the present application and features of the embodiments may be arbitrarily combined with each other.
The automatic stacking equipment for the flat protection angles adopts the conveying mechanisms in two directions to convey the flat protection angles, and the first conveying mechanism conveying the flat protection angles along the length direction of the conveying mechanism effectively separates and limits the flat protection angles so as to ensure that the flat protection angles conveyed to the second conveying mechanism are not overlapped; after the flat corner protector is separated from the first conveying mechanism and reaches between the second conveying mechanisms, the flat corner protector is turned over, so that the concave surface of the flat corner protector faces downwards, and later stacking and stacking are facilitated; and the flat protection angles are stacked in groups according to a preset quantity on a second conveying mechanism which conveys the flat protection angles along the width direction, so that the stacking efficiency of the stacking mechanism is improved. The automatic stacking equipment and the stacking method for the flat corner protector are automatically controlled by the control system in the whole course, so that labor is effectively saved, the labor intensity is reduced, and the production efficiency is improved.
The automatic stacking equipment and the method for the panel corner protectors provided by the invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
Fig. 1 shows a schematic structural view of an embodiment of the automatic stacking apparatus for flat panel corner protectors according to the present invention, and referring to fig. 1, the automatic stacking apparatus for flat panel corner protectors includes a first conveying mechanism 1, a second conveying mechanism 2, a turning mechanism 3, a stacking mechanism 4, a stacking mechanism 5 and a control system 6, and an arrow direction in the figure is a conveying direction of the flat panel corner protector. Fig. 2 shows a schematic side view of the second conveying mechanism 2, and fig. 3 is an enlarged view of a portion a in fig. 2. As shown in fig. 1 and 2 in combination, the input end of the second conveying mechanism 2 is located below the extension line of the output end of the first conveying mechanism 1, and the conveying direction of the second conveying mechanism 2 is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the first conveying mechanism 1. In the present embodiment, the first conveying mechanism 1 is used for conveying along the extending direction of the length of the flat panel corner protector, and the second conveying mechanism 2 is used for conveying along the width direction of the flat panel corner protector.
The turning mechanism 3 is arranged above the input end of the second conveying mechanism 2, on the extension line of the first conveying mechanism 1, and below the upper surface of the first conveying mechanism 1. The concave surface of the flat protection angle 10 produced in the previous procedure is upwards conveyed to the first conveying mechanism 1, the flat protection angle 10 on the first conveying mechanism 1 falls onto the turnover mechanism 3 before being conveyed to the second conveying mechanism 2, the turnover mechanism 3 turns over the flat protection angle 10 for 180 degrees and then places the flat protection angle onto the second conveying mechanism 2, and the concave surface of the flat protection angle 10 is downwards conveyed on the second conveying mechanism 2 so as to facilitate subsequent stacking and stacking, ensure that the flat protection angle is stably stacked and cannot be inclined and scattered.
The stacking mechanism 4 is located between the turning mechanism 3 and the output end of the second conveying mechanism 2, and the stacking mechanism 4 is used for sequentially stacking the flat protection angles 10 turned by the turning mechanism 3 in groups according to a preset number to form an protection angle group 20. For example, the stacking mechanism 4 stacks the panel corner protectors 10 turned by the turning mechanism 3 in groups of 8 or 6, so that the subsequent stacking mechanism 5 stacks, and the stacking efficiency is improved.
Specifically, the stacking mechanism 5 is located at the output end of the second conveying mechanism 2, and is used for moving the corner protection group 20 to a predetermined position and stacking according to a predetermined rule.
In order to improve the automation degree of the equipment, save manpower and reduce the labor intensity, in the automatic stacking equipment for the flat panel corner protector, the first conveying mechanism 1, the second conveying mechanism 2, the turnover mechanism 3, the stacking mechanism 4 and the stacking mechanism 5 are all electrically connected with the control system 6, and all the conveying, turnover, stacking and other processes are automatically completed under the control of the control system 6, so that the production efficiency is effectively improved.
In order to prevent the process of overturning, subsequent conveying, stacking and the like from being influenced by the fact that the flat corner protectors are alternately stacked in the overturning process, the flat corner protector automatic stacking device further comprises at least one set of separating mechanism 7, wherein the separating mechanism 7 is positioned above the first conveying mechanism 1 and is used for separating the flat corner protectors which are mutually stacked on the first conveying mechanism 1, and the flat corner protectors conveyed to the second conveying mechanism 2 are ensured to be single and single in layer, so that the overturning mechanism 3 can overturn conveniently.
Fig. 4 shows a schematic structural view of the separating mechanism 7 in an embodiment, and it is understood from fig. 1 and fig. 4 that in this embodiment, the separating mechanism 7 includes a first mounting frame 71 and a separating strip 72. Wherein, the first mounting frame 71 is fixed on the first conveying mechanism 1, and the separation strip 72 is fixed at the bottom of the first mounting frame 71 and suspended above the first conveying mechanism 1, for separating a plurality of panel corner protectors overlapped with each other. Specifically, the flat corner protector 10 conveyed on the first conveying mechanism 1 is conveyed via the lower part of the separating strip 72, and the interval between the separating strip 72 and the conveying surface of the first conveying mechanism 1 is larger than the thickness of the flat corner protector and smaller than twice the thickness of the flat corner protector, so that only one flat corner protector is ensured to pass at a time, and the overlapped plurality of flat corner protectors are effectively separated.
In addition, in order to prevent that the space between two adjacent flat protection angles is too small, so that the overturning mechanism 3 does not finish overturning the previous flat protection angle even just at the beginning, the next flat protection angle is conveyed to influence the overturning effect, even the next flat protection angle directly falls on the second conveying mechanism 2 to influence the subsequent conveying, stacking and even stacking, the flat protection angle automatic stacking device further comprises a limiting mechanism 8, wherein the limiting mechanism 8 is positioned above the output end of the first conveying mechanism 1 and is used for controlling the adjacent flat protection angles 10 on the first conveying mechanism 1 to be conveyed to the second conveying mechanism 2 at preset intervals, namely ensuring the minimum space between the adjacent flat protection angles 10 conveyed to the overturning mechanism 3 (the second conveying mechanism 2) and ensuring the ordered and stable operation of the subsequent process.
Fig. 5 shows a schematic structural view of a specific embodiment of the limiting mechanism 8, in this embodiment, the limiting mechanism 8 includes a second mounting frame 81, a limiting cylinder 82, and a ram 83. The second mounting frame 81 is fixed at the output end of the first conveying mechanism 1, the limiting cylinder 82 is fixed on the second mounting frame 81, the output end of the limiting cylinder 82 faces the conveying surface of the first conveying mechanism 1, and the pressure head 83 is fixed at the output end of the limiting cylinder 82; the input end of the limiting cylinder 82 is electrically connected with the control system 6. The control system 6 controls the expansion and contraction of the limit cylinder 82, and further controls the distance between the ram 83 and the conveying surface of the first conveying mechanism 1.
Specifically, when the limiting cylinder 82 extends, the distance between the pressing head 83 and the conveying surface of the first conveying mechanism 1 is smaller than the thickness of the flat corner protector 10, so that the flat corner protector 10 is effectively blocked from passing through; when the limit cylinder 82 is retracted, the distance between the pressure head 83 and the conveying surface of the first conveying mechanism 1 is better than the thickness of the flat corner protector 10, so that the flat corner protector 10 can pass smoothly.
In order to ensure that the turnover mechanism 3 can effectively turn over each flat corner protector 10 and then put the flat corner protector on the second conveying mechanism, the limiting cylinder 82 drives the pressure head 83 to lift at a certain time interval frequency, so that the operation of the turnover mechanism 3 is not influenced by too small interval between two adjacent flat corner protectors 10. In a typical embodiment, the lifting frequency of the limiting cylinder 82 may be consistent with the turning frequency of the turning mechanism 3, or may be smaller than the turning frequency of the turning mechanism 3, that is, the period of time during which the limiting cylinder 82 is lifted once may be equal to or greater than the period during which the turning mechanism 3 turns once.
Illustratively, in combination with the conveying speed of the first conveying mechanism 1, the duration of the lifting of the pressing head 83 by the limiting cylinder 82 is the duration of a preset length of the flat protection angle 10 passing through the lower part of the pressing head 83 completely, and the duration of the lifting of the pressing head 83 by the limiting cylinder 82 is at least the duration required by the overturning mechanism 3 to overturn the flat protection angle 180 degrees, so that the two continuous flat protection angles 10 can be ensured to be conveyed in an isolated manner, each flat protection angle can be ensured to be overturned effectively, and the stability of subsequent stacking is ensured.
Referring back to fig. 1 to 3, the tilting mechanism 3 includes a tilting bracket 31, a tilting body 32, a tilting motor 33, a first sensor, and a fixed grasping module 34. The bottom end of the turnover support 31 is fixed on the frame body of the second conveying mechanism 2, and the turnover body 32 is hinged with the top end of the turnover support 31 and is arranged above the input end of the second conveying mechanism 2 and lower than the output end of the first conveying mechanism 1; the turning body 32 is arranged in the extending direction of the first conveying mechanism 1, so that it is ensured that the flat protection angle conveyed by the first conveying mechanism 1 can fall onto the turning body 32 to be turned. The turnover motor 33 is electrically connected with the control system 6, the output end of the turnover motor 33 is in transmission connection with the turnover body 32, and the control system 6 controls the starting and stopping of the turnover motor 33, so as to control the turnover body 32 to turn over and control the turnover frequency of the turnover body 32. The first sensor is located on the turnover support 31 and is electrically connected with the control system 6, and is used for sensing whether the turnover body 32 is turned in place or not, so that the flat protection angle can be turned 180 degrees by the turnover body 32 each time.
Illustratively, the fixed grabbing module 34 may be a suction cup mechanism or may be a telescopic grabbing mechanism (for example, may be set to be controlled by a cylinder) located at two ends of the turning body 32, so as to prevent the corner protector from falling during the turning process, and release the corner protector after the turning is completed, so that the corner protector falls onto the second conveying mechanism 2.
Specifically, the overturning body 32 is provided with a cavity 321 for accommodating the flat corner protector conveyed by the first conveying mechanism 1, and the shape and depth of the cavity 321 are adapted to the shape of the flat corner protector. When the fixed grabbing module 34 is a sucker mechanism, the fixed grabbing module can be arranged in the concave cavity 321 and used for adsorbing the panel corner protector, so that the panel corner protector cannot fall off before being turned in place. When the turnover body 32 turns over to 180 degrees, the first sensor sends a confirmation signal to the control system 6, and the control system controls the fixed grabbing module 34 to release the flat protection angle, so that the flat protection angle falls on the second conveying mechanism 2 to be conveyed.
As shown in fig. 2 and 3, in this embodiment, two cavities 321 facing opposite directions are provided on the turning body 32, and a detector (not shown in the drawing) is provided on each cavity 321, for example, a pressure sensor or a photoelectric sensor is used for sensing whether the panel corner protector is conveyed into the cavity 321; the detector is electrically connected with the control system 6 or the overturning motor 33, and when the detector senses that the panel corner protector falls into the concave cavity 321, a confirmation signal is sent to the control system 6 or the overturning motor 33, and then the control system 6 controls the overturning motor 33 to start so as to drive the overturning body 32 to overturn or the confirmation signal directly starts the overturning motor 33 so as to drive the overturning body 32 to overturn. The two concave cavities 321 with opposite directions can ensure that after one concave cavity drives the panel corner protector to turn over, the other concave cavity faces upwards just, and the next conveyed panel corner protector can be received, so that the turning over efficiency is effectively improved; if only one cavity 321 is provided on one overturning body 32, after the flat protection angle is overturned 180 °, the overturning body 32 needs to be overturned 180 ° again or returned, and after the cavity 321 returns to the original position, the next flat protection angle can be continuously received, which not only consumes longer time and lower efficiency, but also wastes energy sources for running the overturning motor 33 and the like and costs.

The clamping plate air cylinder 433 is fixed on the clamping frame 431 and is electrically connected with the control system 6, the control system 6 controls the expansion and contraction of the clamping plate air cylinder 433, and then the lateral clamping plate 432 is driven to be opened or retracted, so that the flat protection angle is put down and clamped.
Referring back to fig. 1 and 2, in order to ensure that the positions of each flat corner protector 10 are uniform when stacked, and that the side edges of the stacked flat corner protectors are aligned, and further, the stability of the corner protector group 20 is ensured, the automatic stacking apparatus for flat corner protectors according to the present invention further includes a blocking device 9, where the blocking device 9 is located between the stacking mechanism 4 and the output end of the second conveying mechanism 2, and is used for performing side edge blocking on the corner protectors in the corner protector group 20.

The control system 6 controls the expansion and the start and the stop of the side baffle cylinder 92, and drives the side baffle 93 to move up and down when the output end of the side baffle cylinder 92 contracts and stretches out. When the extending end of the side baffle cylinder 92 extends outwards, the side baffle 93 blocks and limits the panel corner protector on the second conveying mechanism 2, so that the stacking mechanism 4 is convenient to stack in groups; when the output end of the side baffle cylinder 92 contracts, the side baffle 93 is driven to lift, and under the conveying action of the second conveying mechanism 2, the stacked corner protector group 20 is continuously conveyed; then put down the side baffle 93, block and limit the next panel corner protector, and stack the mechanism 4 to be stacked.
In order to ensure that the side baffle 93 can effectively limit the flat corner protector 10, and ensure that the corner protector group 20 is stacked neatly, the interval between the side baffle 93 and the conveying surface of the second conveying mechanism 2 needs to be smaller than the thickness of the flat corner protector in the state that the output end of the side baffle cylinder 92 extends.
In addition, in order to prevent the stacked corner protector groups 20 from falling between being moved and stacked after being conveyed to the output end of the second conveying mechanism 2, a blocking device 40 is disposed above the output end of the second conveying mechanism 2, so as to sequentially block the multiple corner protector groups conveyed to the output end of the second conveying mechanism 2, so that the stacking mechanism 5 can be moved at fixed points. Specifically, the blocking device 40 includes a blocking plate, the bottom end of which is higher than the conveying surface of the second conveying mechanism 2, and the distance between the bottom end of which and the conveying surface of the second conveying mechanism 2 is smaller than the thickness of the flat protection angle 10, so as to prevent the flat protection angle from sliding off under the action of the conveying friction force of the second conveying mechanism. Further, the height of the blocking plate may be higher than or equal to the height of the corner protector group 20, so as to avoid the flat corner protector at the top of the corner protector group 20 from slipping under the conveying inertia of the second conveying mechanism.
In the automatic stacking device for the flat corner protector, a mechanical arm mechanism is adopted as the stacking mechanism 5 in order to improve the automation degree of the device. Specifically, the stacking mechanism 5 comprises a fixing seat 51, a rotating arm 52 and a cylinder clamp 53, wherein the fixing seat 51 is fixed on the ground, a first end of the rotating arm 52 is rotatably connected with the fixing seat 51, and a second end of the rotating arm 52 is fixedly connected with the cylinder clamp 53; the movements of the rotary arm 52 and the cylinder clamp 53 are controlled by the control system 6. Specifically, the rotating arm 52 has a multi-axis structure, so that rotation in multiple dimensions can be completed, for example, the stacking mechanism 5 can be a four-axis manipulator, that is, the rotating arm 52 includes four rotating shafts, rotation in at least four dimensions can be completed, and carrying and stacking in a larger range and at a more accurate position can be realized.
Fig. 7 shows a schematic structural view of the cylinder clamp 53 of the palletizing mechanism 5 in a specific embodiment, and as shown, in this embodiment, the cylinder clamp 53 includes a telescopic bracket 531, a telescopic cylinder 532, a side plate 533, and a gripper assembly 534. The middle part of the telescopic bracket 531 is fixedly connected or rotatably connected with the second end of the rotary arm 52; the telescopic cylinder 532 is fixed on the telescopic frame 531, and the output and the curb plate 533 fixed connection of telescopic cylinder 532, curb plate 533 are located the both ends of telescopic frame 531, drive curb plate 533 along with the flexible and removal of telescopic frame 531 through the flexible of the output of telescopic cylinder 532, and telescopic frame 531 plays the balancing action to the removal of curb plate 533, guarantees the stability that curb plate 533 removed. The gripper assembly 534 is fixed to the bottom of the side plate 533, and the gripper assembly 534 grips and releases the corner protector group 20 with the movement of the side plate 533. The input end of the telescopic cylinder 532 is electrically connected with the control system 6, and the control system 6 controls the telescopic driving side plate 533 of the telescopic cylinder 532 to slide along the telescopic frame 531, so that the grabbing head assemblies 534 at the bottom ends of the side plates 533 at two ends of the telescopic frame 531 are far away from or close to each other, and grabbing and releasing actions of the grabbing head assemblies 534 are realized. Illustratively, in the structure of one cylinder jig 53, two telescopic cylinders 532 are provided, the movements of the side plates 533 fixed to both ends of the telescopic frame 531 are controlled respectively, and the telescopic directions of the two telescopic cylinders 532 are opposite.
In an exemplary embodiment, the head assembly 534 includes a head 535 and a head cylinder 536, the head 535 being fixedly connected to an output end of the head cylinder 536, the head cylinder 536 being secured to a bottom of the side plate 533 and being electrically connected to the control system 6, the telescoping action of the head cylinder 536 being controlled by the control system 6. It should be noted that the direction of expansion and contraction of the head cylinder 536 in the head assembly 534 at the bottom of one side plate 533 is opposite to the direction of expansion and contraction of the expansion and contraction cylinder 532 that controls the movement of that side plate 533.
In practical application, the palletizing of the palletizing mechanism 5 may be controlled by inputting coordinate points in the control system 6. For example, with the center of the fixing seat 51 of the stacking mechanism 5 as the origin, the conveying start point is always a coordinate point located at the output end of the second conveying mechanism 2 and close to the center of the corner protection set 20 of the blocking device 40, and the conveying end point is that coordinates of the stacking point of the corner protection set 20 are all coordinate points where corresponding stacking positions are located on the tray 30 of the stacking area, and the stacking mechanism 5 can be controlled by the control system 6 to sequentially perform stacking according to a predetermined rule according to a certain stacking rule. For example, if two or more corner protector groups 20 are stacked at the same coordinate point, the height (i.e., Z-axis) coordinate of the coordinate point needs to be adjusted according to the height of the corner protector group 20.
The invention also provides a method for automatically stacking the flat corner protector, wherein fig. 8 shows a flow chart of the method for automatically stacking the flat corner protector, and the method for automatically stacking the flat corner protector is controlled by the control system 6 to complete an automatic stacking process under the control of the control system 6, and specifically comprises the following steps:
