In this embodiment, the controller can control the suction mechanism 400 to move to the accumulated goods for sucking the goods according to the position information. In addition, the controller can judge the number of the goods indicated by the number information and the size of the specified number, and when the number indicated by the number information is greater than or equal to the specified number, the controller controls the suction mechanism 400 to suck the specified number of the goods. Further, the grouping of the cargos can be efficiently controlled, and the grouping efficiency can be improved.
In the following description, three units of goods are transported as an example. That is, the conveying line 100 uses three goods as a unit to carry, and when three goods of a unit are carried to between two clamp plates 220, stops the conveying of conveying line 100 to control two clamp plates 220 to clamp the goods that need arrange simultaneously, make the goods arrange neatly, so that the accumulation of goods. After centering is completed, the conveyor line 100 continues to convey the goods to the accumulation mechanism 300 to stop and accumulate the goods by the accumulation mechanism 300. At this point, if four items are now required, the specified number is four. When three goods are accumulated in the accumulation mechanism 300 in one unit and the suction mechanism 400 does not suck the goods, and when six goods are accumulated in another unit and the number of the accumulated goods is accumulated in the accumulation mechanism 300, the visual control mechanism 600 controls the suction mechanism 400 to suck four goods according to the judgment that the number of the goods accumulated in the accumulation mechanism 300 is larger than the specified number. At this time, two goods remain, the vision control mechanism 600 judges that the number of the goods accumulated by the accumulation mechanism 300 is less than the designated number, at this time, the suction mechanism 400 does not perform the second suction, and when the third unit of goods is accumulated at the accumulation mechanism 300 so that the number of the accumulated goods is five, the vision control mechanism 600 judges that the accumulated goods is more than the designated number and controls the suction mechanism 400 to suck the designated number of goods. The subsequent grouping work is analogized in turn.
It should be noted that the designated number may be changed according to actual requirements, and the designated number may also be different in each grabbing, for example, if three goods need to be grabbed in the grabbing operation, the designated number is three, and if five goods need to be grabbed in the grabbing operation, the designated number is five, and the like. In addition, the designated amount may be manually input to the controller so that the controller can determine the amount of accumulated goods and the size of the designated amount, thereby enabling the controller to control the suction mechanism 400 to suck the designated amount of goods; alternatively, the designated number may be identified by a visual identification device (not shown), that is, the number of the goods required at this time is identified by the visual identification device, for example, a gap is formed on a stack formed by grouping the goods, the gap is identified by the visual identification device, how many goods are required for filling the gap is identified, the number of the goods required is the designated number, and the visual identification device can generate a predetermined signal according to the identified designated number and send the predetermined signal to the visual control mechanism 600, so that the designated number indicated by the visual control mechanism 600 according to the predetermined signal can be compared with the number of the goods accumulated by the accumulation mechanism 300, and the visual control mechanism 600 can control the suction mechanism 400 to suck the designated number of the goods and the like conveniently.
the grouping device 10 provided in the present embodiment can convey the goods by the conveyor line 100 and accumulate the goods conveyed by the conveyor line 100 by the accumulation mechanism 300, and at the same time can prevent the goods from falling by the accumulation mechanism 300. In addition, the number of the accumulated goods is recognized by the visual control mechanism 600, and when the visual control mechanism 600 recognizes that the number of the goods accumulated by the accumulation mechanism 300 is greater than or equal to the designated number, the visual control mechanism 600 controls the suction mechanism 400 to suck the designated number of the goods and move the designated number of the goods to the designated position.

S1032, identifying the number and the length of the laser line segments, and calculating the number of accumulated cargos according to the number and the length of the laser line segments.
That is, the number and length of laser line segments formed on the surface of the accumulated cargo can be recognized by the industrial camera 610, and the number of accumulated cargo can be calculated from the number and length of laser line segments.
It should be noted that the calculation of the accumulated cargo amount is performed in the above-described manner when the vision control mechanism 600 includes the controller, the industrial camera 610, and the one-line laser line 620. In other embodiments, for example, when the vision control mechanism 600 includes a controller and a three-dimensional camera, step S103 includes:
And S1033, shooting image information of the accumulated goods.
That is, image information of the accumulated goods is photographed by a three-dimensional camera, wherein the image information may be photograph information or video information; meanwhile, the three-dimensional camera is also used for sending the shot image information to the controller.
S1034, calculating the quantity of the accumulated goods according to the image information.
That is, when the controller receives image information photographed by the three-dimensional camera, the number of accumulated goods can be identified based on the image information.
In addition, after the identification work for the accumulated goods is completed, the controller judges a magnitude relation between the quantity of the accumulated goods and the designated quantity.
And S104, when the quantity of the accumulated goods is larger than or equal to the specified quantity, sucking the specified quantity of goods to a specified position.
When the visual control mechanism 600 recognizes that the number of the cargos accumulated by the accumulation mechanism 300 is greater than or equal to the designated number, the suction mechanism 400 is controlled to suck the designated number of the cargos, and the cargos are moved to the designated position by the suction mechanism 400, so that the cargo grouping operation can be completed.
