As shown in fig. 10, the tray T is horizontally transferred to be carried on the single horizontal tray conveyor 440 and is conveyed to the downstream tray stacking mechanism 450 by the single horizontal tray conveyor.

In some embodiments, the single horizontal pallet conveyor 440 may be a roller conveyor, a drag conveyor, or the like. The first tray carrying portion is configured to avoid the conveying surface of the single horizontal tray conveyor 440 after the tray carrier 431 is rotated to be horizontal, and to drop the horizontal tray T on the conveying surface of the single horizontal tray conveyor 440. For example, the first pallet load bearing portion may comprise two bolster beams located outside the conveying surface of the single horizontal pallet conveyor 440 in the second work position. In some embodiments, the first pallet carriers and the single horizontal pallet conveyors 440 may also be arranged in a similar arrangement to the arrangement of the first pack carrier 3111 of the turntables 311 of the pack stacking apparatus 300 and the first pack conveyor 320 as previously described.

As shown in fig. 10, the tray stacking mechanism 450 includes a tray lifting and lowering base 451, a lifting and lowering drive mechanism 452, and a not-shown tray loading mechanism. The pallet lift truck 451, for example, includes a scissor structure and a support platform disposed atop the scissor structure. The lift drive mechanism 452 includes, for example, a drive cylinder. The driving cylinder is in driving connection with the scissor fork structure to drive the supporting platform to lift. When the tray T needs to be received, the supporting platform rises to jack up the tray stack on the supporting platform, the tray stack is supported by the supporting mechanism, and then the supporting platform falls, so that a vacancy is formed between the tray stack and the supporting platform. The single horizontal tray conveyor 440 may convey the trays T thereon into the empty space, and stack the stack of trays carried by the carrier mechanism on the trays T on the empty space. And by analogy, the stacking of the trays can be realized.

The support platform may itself be provided with a conveying function, for example the support platform may be a roller conveyor platform or a scraper chain conveyor. When the stacking number of the trays T reaches a preset amount, a required tray stack is formed, and the supporting platform can convey the tray stack to the downstream. In this embodiment, the support platform conveys the stack of trays to a full stack horizontal tray conveyor 460. The full stack horizontal pallet conveyor 460 may be, for example, a roller conveyor_。

The operation of the cargo pallet separation processing apparatus according to the present embodiment will be described in detail below. The main action process comprises the steps of overturning and separating the whole stack, pulling and separating the tray, rotating the tray by 90 degrees and stacking the tray.

The whole stack of the packing box stack G with the tray is overturned and separated. The entire stack of cartons G is transferred to the first stack conveyor 320 by the external docking device, and the entire stack of cartons G is conveyed by the first stack conveyor 320 to be close to the first stack-carrying portion 3111 of the turning frame 311. The stack G is tilted 90 degrees along with the roll-over stand and falls on the second group stack conveyor 330 supported by the second stack carrier 3112. The second group conveyor 330 drives the tilted whole stack of packing boxes G to move at a small distance, so that the whole stack of packing boxes G and the trays T thereof are separated from the second box stack bearing part 3112 by a certain distance, and the tilting and separating actions of the whole stack of packing boxes G from the trays T are completed.

The tray is pulled away. The tray transfer mechanism 420 moves close to the erected tray T, and the dragging piece 424 of the tray transfer mechanism 420 operates in cooperation with the erected tray T. Under the driving of the tray transfer mechanism 420, the tray T moves to the single erected tray conveyor 410 along the single erected tray conveyor 410, the tray T is pulled out from the whole stack of packaging box stacks G, and then the tray T is transferred to the tray carrier 431 of the tray overturning mechanism 430 by the single erected tray conveyor 410.

The tray is rotated 90 degrees. The tray carrier 431 of the tray turning mechanism 430 rotates 90 degrees around the rotating shaft under the action of the tray turning driving mechanism 432, and drives the tray T to turn from the vertical state to the horizontal state. The tray T turned into the horizontal state is placed on the single horizontal tray conveyor 440.

The trays are stacked. The tray stacking mechanism 450 is actuated to form a vacant space between the support platform and the stacked trays, the single horizontal tray conveyor 440 conveys the trays T into the vacant space of the tray stacking mechanism 450, and the tray stacking mechanism 450 completes the stacking work of the horizontal trays T. The stack of stacked trays is transferred to a full stack horizontal tray conveyor 460, either forked off by a forklift or directly conveyed to a docked external conveyor line.

The cargo pallet separation processing apparatus of the present embodiment has at least one of the following advantages: after the packaging box stack G with the tray is tipped, the packaging box stack G is pulled away from the tray T, so that the flexibility is high and the flexibility is high. The second group of stack conveyors 330 can move the whole stack of packaging box stacks G at a small distance after the packaging box stacks G with trays are tipped, so that the tray pulling resistance is reduced, and the pulling action of the trays T can be flexibly and quickly realized; meanwhile, the whole stack can be moved to be reversely close to the second stack bearing part after the tray is pulled away, so that the problem of stack scattering caused by directly turning up the packaging box stack G is solved. The drawn trays T are vertically conveyed to the downstream and then are further processed, so that the occupied space is small, and the equipment utilization rate is high. The tray turning mechanism 430 and the tray stacking mechanism 450 are provided to automatically stack and collect the extracted trays T.
