The stacking mechanism 13 includes a plurality of stacking platforms 131 and a plurality of stacking driving members 132 connected to the stacking rack 11, where the stacking driving members 132 are connected to the stacking platforms 131 one by one, and the stacking driving members 132 can independently drive the corresponding stacking platforms 131 to move so that the stacking platforms 131 are connected to the tail ends of the conveying mechanism 12, so that the stacking platforms 131 receive the goods conveyed by the conveying mechanism 12, or drive the corresponding stacking platforms 131 to move above the designated position 900 or withdraw from above the designated position 900, in other words, while one stacking driving member 132 drives the corresponding stacking platforms 131 to be connected to the tail ends of the conveying mechanism 12, and the stacking platforms 131 receive the goods conveyed by the conveying mechanism 12, the other stacking driving members 132 can drive the corresponding stacking platforms 131 to move above the designated position 900 or withdraw from above the designated position 900. The blocking mechanism 15 is movably connected to the stacking bracket 11, and the blocking mechanism 15 is located near the stacking platform 131 or far from the stacking platform 131, when the stacking platform 131 is retreated from above the designated position 900, the blocking mechanism 15 can block the goods from moving along with the stacking platform 131 when the stacking platform 131 is near the stacking platform 131, so that the goods fall to the designated position 900, in other words, when the stacking platform 131 is retreated from above the designated position 900 under the driving of the corresponding stacking driving member 132, the blocking mechanism 15 can be close to the stacking platform 131, so as to block the goods above the stacking platform 131, so that the goods fall to the designated position 900 under the action of gravity when the goods are separated from the stacking platform 131, so as to complete the action of stacking the goods to the designated position 900.
In this way, by arranging the plurality of stacking driving members 132 and the stacking platforms 131, when part of the stacking platforms 131 are connected with the tail end of the conveying mechanism 12 and receive the goods conveyed by the conveying mechanism 12, the other part of the stacking platforms 131 move to the position above the designated position 900 and retract from the position above the designated position 900 under the driving of the corresponding stacking driving members 132 to cooperate with the blocking mechanism 15 so as to finish the action of stacking the goods to the designated position 900 and realize the action of simultaneously receiving the goods and stacking the goods, and the plurality of stacking platforms 131 alternately perform the action of receiving the goods under the driving of the corresponding stacking driving members 132 and alternately perform the action of stacking the goods so as to realize the effect of continuously receiving the goods and continuously stacking the goods, thereby further improving the stacking efficiency of the stacking device 10.
It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the number of the stacking driving members 132 and the stacking platforms 131 may be two, for example, three or four, in other embodiments, and in this embodiment, when the stacking mechanism 13 and the blocking mechanism 15 work, the stacking driving members 132 drive the corresponding stacking platforms 131 to connect with the end of the conveying mechanism 12, so that the stacking platforms 131 receive the goods transferred by the conveying mechanism 12 and further complete the work of receiving the goods, and the stacking driving members 132 drive the corresponding stacking platforms 131 to move to the upper side of the designated position 900 and drive the corresponding stacking platforms 131 to withdraw from the upper side of the designated position 900, at this time, the blocking mechanism 15 approaches the stacking platforms 131, the stacking platforms 131 pass through the lower side of the blocking mechanism 15, and the goods on the stacking platforms 131 are separated from the stacking platforms 131 under the blocking action of the blocking mechanism 15 and drop to the designated position 900, so as to complete the work of stacking the goods to the designated position 900.
When the above-mentioned stacking driving member 132 drives the corresponding stacking platform 131 not to be connected with the conveying mechanism 12, that is, when the stacking of the goods to the designated position 900 is performed, the other stacking driving member 132 drives the corresponding stacking platform 131 to be connected with the tail end of the conveying mechanism 12 so as to complete the goods receiving operation, and when the above-mentioned stacking driving member 132 drives the corresponding stacking platform 131 to be connected with the conveying mechanism 12, that is, when the goods receiving operation is performed, the other stacking driving member 132 drives the corresponding stacking platform 131 to be matched with the blocking mechanism 15 so as to perform the goods stacking operation to the designated position 900, thereby achieving the effects of alternately receiving the goods and alternately stacking the goods and improving the goods stacking efficiency of the stacking device 10.
With continued reference to fig. 2 and 3, in the present embodiment, the stacking driving members 132 are mutually connected, and the first stacking driving portion 1321 and the second stacking driving portion 1322 are mutually perpendicular, the first stacking driving portion 1321 is connected to the corresponding stacking platform 131, the second stacking driving portion 1322 is connected to the stacking rack 11, and the end of the conveying mechanism 12 has the material receiving area 111, the first stacking driving portion 1321 can drive the corresponding stacking platform 131 to move along the first direction a or the second direction B opposite to the first direction a, and the second stacking driving portion 1322 can drive the corresponding stacking platform 131 to translate along the third direction C or the fourth direction D opposite to the first direction a, so that the corresponding stacking platform 131 extends out of the material receiving area 111 and is located above the designated position 900, or the corresponding stacking platform 131 retracts into the material receiving area 111 and is connected to the conveying mechanism 12, wherein the first direction a is the direction in which the conveying mechanism 12 conveys goods.
In other words, the working procedure of the stacking driving member 132 may be that the second stacking driving portion 1322 drives the corresponding stacking platform 131 to move along the third direction C or the fourth direction D in the receiving area 111, and makes the corresponding stacking platform 131 connect to the end of the conveying mechanism 12 to receive the goods, the second stacking driving portion 1322 then drives the corresponding stacking platform 131 to move along the third direction C or the fourth direction D, so that the stacking platform 131 is aligned above the designated position 900, and the first stacking driving portion 1321 of the stacking driving member 132 then drives the corresponding second stacking driving portion 1322 to move along the first direction a, so as to drive the corresponding stacking platform 131 to extend out of the receiving area 111 along the first direction a, so that the corresponding stacking platform 131 is located above the designated position 900, and then drives the stacking platform 131 to retract from above the designated position 900 along the second direction B by the first stacking driving portion 1321, so as to cooperate with the blocking mechanism 15, thereby completing the work of stacking the goods above the designated position 900. Of course, the first stacking driving portion 1321 may drive the stacking platform 131 to extend out of the material receiving area 111, and then the second stacking driving portion 1322 may drive the corresponding stacking platform 131 to move along the third direction C or the fourth direction D in the material receiving area 111, so that the corresponding stacking platform 131 is located above the designated position 900.
In the present embodiment, the first stacking driving unit 1321 is a rack and pinion mechanism with a driving motor, the second stacking driving unit 1322 is a timing belt transmission mechanism with a driving motor, and the first stacking driving unit 1321 is connected to the timing belt of the second stacking driving unit 1322. In other embodiments, the stacking drive 132 may be other types of drive mechanisms, such as a robotic arm. The above-described designated position 900 is an area outside the end of the stacking mechanism 13 of the stacking rack 11, that is, an area indicated by a broken line in the lower right corner in fig. 2.
Further, the range of the material receiving area 111 is the sum of the movement ranges of the plurality of stacking platforms 131 in the third direction C or the fourth direction D, and the width of the material receiving area 111 in the third direction C is greater than the width of the stacking bracket 11 in the third direction C. In other words, the movement range of the plurality of stacking platforms 131 on the straight line in the third direction C is larger than the width of the stacking bracket 11 in the third direction C.
In this way, the second stacking driving portion 1322 is adjusted to drive the corresponding stacking platform 131 to move in the third direction C, so as to change the actual moving width of the stacking mechanism 13, so as to adapt to the widths of different carriages or containers, and the stacking apparatus 10 can be compatible with carriages of different widths.
Referring to fig. 2 and 4, fig. 4 is a schematic structural diagram of a blocking mechanism 15 of the stacking apparatus 10 according to an embodiment of the invention.
Two opposite sides of the material receiving area 111 are respectively provided with a receiving side 112 and a discharging side 113, the receiving side 112 is positioned at the tail end of the conveying mechanism 12, and the stacking platform 131 extends out of and retracts the material receiving area 111 through the discharging side 113;
The blocking mechanism 15 may include a first blocking driving member 151 and a blocking member 154 connected to each other, wherein the first blocking driving member 151 is connected to the stacking bracket 11, and the first blocking driving member 151 can drive the blocking member 154 to move so that the blocking member 154 is close to or far away from the discharging side 113, and when the stacking platform 131 retracts the receiving area 111, the blocking mechanism 15 can block the cargo on the stacking platform 131 when approaching the discharging side 113, and the stacking platform 131 retracts the receiving area 111 from below the blocking member 154. In other words, the first blocking driving member 151 can drive the blocking member 154 to move, when the stacking platform 131 extends from the discharging side 113 to the receiving area 111, the blocking member 154 is away from the discharging side 113 to allow the stacking platform 131 to extend from the receiving area 111, and when the stacking platform 131 is retracted from the discharging side 113 to above the designated position 900, the blocking member 154 is driven by the first blocking driving member 151 to approach the discharging side 113 to block the goods of the stacking platform 131 to the designated position 900, and the stacking platform 131 is allowed to pass below the blocking member 154.
Further, the blocking mechanism 15 may further include a second blocking driving member 152, where the first blocking driving member 151 is connected to the stacking rack 11 through the second blocking driving member 152, and the second blocking driving member 152 can drive the blocking member 154 to move along the first direction a or the second direction B. In this way, in the process of blocking the goods on the stacking platform 131 to the designated position 900, the blocking member 154 can also move along the first direction a or the second direction B, so that the position of the blocking member 154 in the first direction a can be adjusted by the second blocking driving member 152, and further, the position of the goods in the first direction a can be properly adjusted, so as to further improve the stacking effect. For example, when the goods are bagged goods, the goods often have a certain fluidity, and the blocking member 154 with the capability of adjusting along the first direction a can properly adjust the falling position of the goods in the first direction a during the goods stacking operation, so that the goods can be more accurately stacked at the designated position 900, thereby improving the stacking precision, stability and space utilization of the stacking device 10.
Further, the blocking mechanism 15 may further include a third blocking driving member 153, where the first blocking driving member 151 is connected to the stacking bracket 11 through the third blocking driving member 153, and the third blocking driving member 153 can drive the blocking member 154 to move along the third direction C or the fourth direction D. In this way, when the stacking platform 131 carrying the goods moves in the third direction C or the fourth direction D in the receiving area 111, the third blocking driving member 153 can drive the blocking member 154 to move in the third direction C or the fourth direction D, so as to keep the blocking member 154 corresponding to one end of the stacking platform 131 away from the unloading side 113, so as to effectively block the goods on the stacking platform 131. In addition, in the present embodiment, the blocking member 154 extends along the line where the third direction C is located, and the length range covered by the blocking member 154 when moving along the third direction C or the fourth direction D is greater than the width of the stacking support 11 in the third direction C, that is, the blocking member 154 may partially extend out of the stacking support 11 along the third direction C or the fourth direction D to adapt to the widths of different carriages, so that the stacking apparatus 10 is compatible with carriages with different widths, and compatibility of the stacking apparatus 10 is further improved.
It should be noted that, in the present embodiment, the first blocking driving member 151, the second blocking driving member 152 and the third blocking driving member 153 are sequentially connected, the third blocking driving member 153 is connected to the stacking rack 11, and the first blocking driving member 151 and the second blocking driving member 152 are both rack-and-pinion mechanisms with driving motors, and the third blocking driving member 153 is a belt transmission mechanism with driving motors, in other embodiments, the first blocking driving member 151, the second blocking driving member 152 and the third blocking driving member 153 may be other driving structures, for example, the first blocking driving member 151 may also be a gear motor, which drives the blocking member 154 to rotate to make the blocking member 154 be located at a position close to the discharging side 113 or a position far from the discharging side 113.
In addition, in other embodiments, the second blocking driving member 152 and the third blocking driving member 153 may not be included, and at this time, the length of the blocking member 154 may be substantially the same as the width of the receiving area 111 in the third direction C, so as to ensure that the blocking member 154 can block the cargo when the stacking platform 131 is retracted from any position in the third direction C above the designated position 900, so that the cargo falls to the designated position 900.
Referring to fig. 2 and 5, fig. 5 is a schematic structural diagram of a conveying mechanism 12 of the stacking apparatus 10 according to an embodiment of the invention.

In this way, the conveying mechanism 121 conveys the goods to the end thereof, the pushing driving part 123 drives the pushing part 122 to push the goods to the upper part of the stacking platform 131 of the material receiving area 111, so that the goods sequentially enter the stacking platform 131, stacking of the goods is avoided, the effect of stacking the goods by the stacking device 10 is further improved, in addition, the pushing part 122 can push a plurality of goods to the stacking platform 131 for a plurality of times, after accumulating and combining the plurality of goods, the stacking platform 131 performs goods stacking operation under the driving of the corresponding stacking driving part 132, and the loading stacking efficiency is further improved.
It should be noted that, the pushing driving member 123 may extend to the upper portion of the material receiving area 111, so that the pushing member 122 may move to an end above an end of the stacking platform 131 away from the conveying mechanism 121 under the driving of the pushing driving member 123, so as to push the goods to an end of the stacking platform 131 away from the conveying mechanism 121, so that the goods is closer to the end of the stacking platform 131 away from the conveying mechanism 121, the stacking platform 131 may move a shorter distance along the first direction a to reach the upper portion of the designated position 900, the stacking efficiency of the stacking device 10 is improved, and the longer pushing distance is such that, when the goods with different sizes or numbers are pushed, the pushing driving member 123 may drive the pushing member 122 to push a suitable distance, so as to ensure that the edge of the goods is close to the edge of the stacking platform 131, and the suitability of the stacking device 10 is improved. In addition, in the present embodiment, the pushing driving member 123 is a combination mechanism of a motor and a synchronous belt, and the pushing member 122 is connected to the synchronous belt, so as to realize driving of the pushing member 122.

Further, the top end of the pushing member 122 is rotatably suspended on the stacking bracket 11, and the bottom end of the pushing member 122 is used for pushing the goods, and the conveying mechanism 12 may further include a pushing limiting member 124, where the pushing limiting member 124 is mounted on the stacking bracket 11 and can abut against the pushing member 122, so as to limit the limit position of the bottom end of the pushing member 122 in the rotation direction B, so that when the bottom end of the pushing member 122 pushes the goods, the bottom end of the pushing member 122 cannot continue to rotate in the second direction B due to the abutment of the pushing limiting member 124, so that the bottom end of the pushing member 122 abuts against the goods to push the goods in the first direction a, and when the pushing driving member 123 drives the pushing member 122 to move in the second direction B, the pushing driving member 123 still can drive the pushing member 122 to return to the initial position even if the goods are located below the pushing member 122, so as to continue the movement of pushing the goods to the stacking platform 131, so that the bottom end of the pushing member 122 abuts against the goods to push the first direction a, and when the pushing member 122 drives the goods in the second direction B. The structure is simple, and the cost is low.
It should be noted that, the pushing member 122 may also be connected to the pushing member 123 through a lifting driving structure or a rotating driving structure, so that the pushing member 122 is driven by the lifting driving structure or the rotating driving structure to move away from the conveying mechanism 121, so as to return to the initial position along with the pushing member 123 without interfering with the conveying state of the goods, so as to realize pushing of the goods without the pushing limiting member 124.
Referring to fig. 2 and fig. 6, fig. 6 is a flow chart illustrating a process of receiving goods and stacking the goods to a designated position 900 in the stacking apparatus 10 according to an embodiment of the invention. In fig. 6, the direction indicated by the arrow a is a first direction a, the direction indicated by the arrow B is a second direction B, the direction indicated by the arrow C is a third direction C, and the direction indicated by the arrow D is a fourth direction D.
In fig. 6-1, the pushing member 122 is pushing two bagged cargoes onto the right stacking platform 131, and at this time, the blocking member 154 corresponds to one end of the right stacking platform 131 away from the conveying mechanism 121 and is located near the unloading side 113;
Further, the right stacking platform 131 moves along the third direction C, and the blocking member 154 moves together with the right stacking platform 131 while the right stacking platform 131 moves along the third direction C to keep corresponding to one end of the right stacking platform 131 away from the conveying mechanism 121, the left stacking platform 131 also moves along the third direction C to connect the left stacking platform 131 with the end of the conveying mechanism 121, and the pushing member 122 continues to push the goods to the left stacking platform 131, as shown in 6-2 in fig. 6.
Further, the blocking member 154 is retracted away from the discharging side 113, and the right stacking platform 131 extends out of the receiving area 111 along the first direction a, and at the same time, the left stacking platform 131 continues to receive the goods conveyed by the conveying mechanism 121 by the pushing member 122, and at this time, the left stacking platform 131 has a bagged goods, as shown in 6-3 in fig. 6.
Further, the right stacking platform 131 withdraws the receiving area 111 in the second direction B, and the blocking member 154 is located near the discharging side 113 to block the goods to the designated position 900, and at this time, the left stacking platform 131 has two bagged goods, as shown in 6-4 of fig. 6.
Further, the right stacking platform 131 moves in the fourth direction D to meet the end of the conveying mechanism 121, and the pushing member 122 continues to push the goods to the right stacking platform 131, the left stacking platform 131 also moves in the fourth direction D, and the blocking member 154 also moves in the fourth direction D to correspond to the end of the left stacking platform 131 away from the conveying mechanism 121, and the blocking member 154 is located away from the discharging side 113, as shown in 6-5 of fig. 6.
Further, the left stacking platform 131 extends out of the receiving area 111 along the first direction a, and after the goods move to above the designated position 900 along with the left stacking platform 131, the blocking member 154 moves to be located near the unloading side 113, so as to be used for blocking the goods to the designated position 900 when the left stacking platform 131 retracts the receiving area 111 along the second direction B, as shown in fig. 6-6.
Thus, the above process is repeated, so that the effect of alternately receiving and alternately stacking the goods by the left and right stacking platforms 131 can be achieved, and the efficiency of stacking the goods by the stacking device 10 can be improved.
The working principle of the stacking device 10 provided by the embodiment of the invention is as follows:
The stacking mechanism 13 includes a plurality of stacking platforms 131 and a plurality of stacking driving members 132 connected to the stacking rack 11, where the stacking driving members 132 are connected to the stacking platforms 131 one by one, and the stacking driving members 132 can independently drive the corresponding stacking platforms 131 to move so that the stacking platforms 131 are connected to the tail ends of the conveying mechanism 12, so that the stacking platforms 131 receive the goods conveyed by the conveying mechanism 12, or drive the corresponding stacking platforms 131 to move above the designated position 900 or withdraw from above the designated position 900, in other words, when one stacking driving member 132 drives the corresponding stacking platforms 131 to connect to the tail ends of the conveying mechanism 12, so that the stacking platforms 131 receive the goods conveyed by the conveying mechanism 12, while the other stacking driving members 132 can drive the corresponding stacking platforms 131 to move above the designated position 900 or withdraw from above the designated position 900. The blocking mechanism 15 is movably connected to the stacking bracket 11, and the blocking mechanism 15 is located near the stacking platform 131 or far from the stacking platform 131, when the stacking platform 131 is retreated from above the designated position 900, the blocking mechanism 15 can block the goods from moving along with the stacking platform 131 when the stacking platform 131 is near the stacking platform 131, so that the goods fall to the designated position 900, in other words, when the stacking platform 131 is retreated from above the designated position 900 under the driving of the corresponding stacking driving member 132, the blocking mechanism 15 can be close to the stacking platform 131, so as to block the goods above the stacking platform 131, so that the goods fall to the designated position 900 under the action of gravity when the goods are separated from the stacking platform 131, so as to complete the action of stacking the goods to the designated position 900. In this way, by arranging the plurality of stacking driving members 132 and the stacking platforms 131, when part of the stacking platforms 131 are connected with the tail end of the conveying mechanism 12 and receive the goods conveyed by the conveying mechanism 12, the other part of the stacking platforms 131 move to the position above the designated position 900 and retract from the position above the designated position 900 under the driving of the corresponding stacking driving members 132 to cooperate with the blocking mechanism 15 so as to finish the action of stacking the goods to the designated position 900 and realize the action of simultaneously receiving the goods and stacking the goods, and the plurality of stacking platforms 131 alternately perform the action of receiving the goods under the driving of the corresponding stacking driving members 132 and alternately perform the action of stacking the goods so as to realize the effect of continuously receiving the goods and continuously stacking the goods, thereby further improving the stacking efficiency of the stacking device 10.
To sum up:
The embodiment of the invention provides a stacking device 10, which can be used for receiving cargoes while stacking cargoes, can be used for continuously receiving cargoes and stacking cargoes, and has the characteristic of higher stacking efficiency.
