In the production enterprises such as white spirit, food beverage, daily chemicals, etc., the unstacking letter sorting of goods and loading link working strength are big, and the recruitment cost is high, and automatic transport loading equipment becomes the demand hotspot. The materials of the box cargoes are generally paper box packages, the shapes of the box cargoes are fixed, but the box shapes with various sizes and large weight differences bring great challenges to loading and conveying.
In the loading system provided in the patents CN 201811559602.5, CN 201921775147.2 and CN 202022637461.3, a loading conveying mechanism and a stacking device are provided. The container is conveyed to the stacking device by the loading conveying mechanism, and then the stacking task is completed by the stacking pushing mechanism and the code disc. Wherein the loading conveying mechanism is provided with a centering device, and the stacking device is provided with a left-right distributing device. The defects of the container conveying mode and the stacking mode are as follows:
① When an even number of containers can be accommodated on the coded disc, and the width of each container is half of the width of the entrance of the coded disc, the last container cannot enter the coded disc because the previous container occupies the entrance position, and aiming at containers with the specification, the coded disc can only finish simultaneous stacking of an odd number of containers, and the even number of containers cannot be stacked, so that each row of containers of a truck is reduced, and the space utilization rate and the truck loading efficiency of the truck are reduced;
② The space positions of the left and right distributing devices of the stacking tray can limit the boxing height of the top of the van or the container type van, so that the space utilization rate of the van is reduced;
③ When the left and right allocating devices move, the container temporarily stops entering the code wheel, so that the loading frequency is limited, the overall loading efficiency is reduced, and meanwhile, the loading stability is also reduced;
In CN 202022637461.3, CN202011275978.0 and CN202210880242.9 patents, the loading operation is performed on the front position by using three structural modes of long arm, frame forward moving long arm and two-stage large arm, and when loading a truck with a gooseneck platform, because the gooseneck platform is long, long large arms are required, there are many problems:
① The overlong large arm makes the loading robot body longer and has space limitation;
② When the coded disc is used for loading a container, the longer large arm needs to bear large moment, and corresponding counterweight is needed to balance the coded disc;
③ The large arm travel is longer and the speed is slower in the case of larger moment, resulting in inefficiency.
In addition, the loading height, the side stacking and the mixed stacking of the box type truck and the container type truck are all the time the difficult problems to be solved immediately at present, the container loading cannot be stacked and embossed and stacked by the side wall of the carriage, and the goods can shake integrally during transportation, so that great potential hazards exist in industries such as drinks and the like.
In order to improve the above technical problems, a two-stage loader and a loading method are provided in the following embodiments.
Referring to fig. 1, the present embodiment provides a two-stage loading machine 10, which is capable of loading and unloading a gooseneck platform 51 of a carriage, and includes a front-stage loading robot 300 and a rear-stage loading robot 200.

The forward boom assembly 240 is coupled to the forward frame 310 to enable the forward loading robot 300 to move on the gooseneck platform 51 and the platform 52.
The front-section loading robot 300 of the two-section loading machine 10 can rise to the height of the gooseneck platform 51 of the carriage and descend to the height of the flat plate platform 52 of the carriage under the action of the jacking roller assemblies 320, and the front-extension arm assembly 240 of the rear-section loading robot 200 can push the front-section loading robot 300, so that the front-section loading robot 300 can move on the gooseneck platform 51 or the flat plate platform 52 through the jacking roller assemblies 320, and the front-section loading robot 300 can ascend and descend the gooseneck platform 51. The code wheel assembly 370 provided on the front loading robot 300 can finish and stack goods. So realized through removing anterior segment loading robot 300 to the preset position of gooseneck platform 51 and carry out cargo pile up neatly again, compared with the condition that whole carloader in the prior art only can remove and lead to the big arm overlength on flat board platform 52, such two segmentation carloader 10 can be showing shorten big arm stroke length, has alleviateed corresponding counter weight, and cargo pile up neatly efficiency is higher.

As can be seen in fig. 1, the two-stage loader 10 includes a front-stage loading robot 300 and a rear-stage loading robot 200. The rear loading robot 200 is connected to the telescopic belt conveyor 20 through a telescopic conveying line and is used for receiving a container which is unstacked and conveyed or directly receiving a container on a product conveying line. And (3) stacking single or multiple stacking trays on the loading machine according to the specification and stacking requirements of the container, so that embossing stacking is realized. The position of the two-section loading machine 10 on the carriage is controlled by the crawler travelling mechanism, and each station can finish 2 rows of container stacking and sequentially back until the cargo stacking work of the whole carriage is finished.
200 The rear loading robot 200 mainly comprises a crawler chassis 210, an accumulation conveying line 220, a differential conveying line 230, a front cantilever assembly 240, a locking assembly 250, a rear supporting leg 260, a lifting adjustment assembly 270, a rear limiting device 280 and a front stretching power assembly 290.

The touch edge sensors 376 arranged left and right on the code wheel perform early warning when touching the carriage wall, and are stacked up by the limit near the carriage side wall;
The left and right strokes on the code wheel are adjustable, the left and right adjustment is carried out on the grouped containers on the code wheel, the embossing stacking is realized, and the stacking stability of the containers is improved. Specific:
(1) The flexibility and the universality of the conveying mode are stronger, and the conveying device can adapt to containers with various specifications;
(2) The truck with the long gooseneck platform 51 is more suitable and has higher efficiency.
(3) And the problem of wall collision caused by poor navigation is reduced by detecting the side face of the code wheel and recording the position.
(4) A contact type stopping mode.
The present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and any changes or substitutions that can be easily understood by those skilled in the art within the technical scope of the present invention are intended to be included in the scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the invention is subject to the protection scope of the claims.
