Definitions
- the invention relates to a "picker road” as used for Converting individual products into containers that are used can accommodate a certain number of individual products (see e.g. DE-A-4 108 818).
- the individual products are usually on one Product belt and the container delivered on a container belt and guided along the pickers at a fixed position, which is why we will only speak of this design in the following is, without restricting the invention thereto, since in principle also the single products and / or the containers stand still and the Picker, on the other hand, could be moved.
- the container belt becomes the same quickly driven like the product belt, and preferably with constant speed.
- a particularly simple design results when product belt and container belt from a common drive be driven, or to a one-piece conveyor belt be summarized, for example in the longitudinal direction a standing wall separated into a transport area for the Individual products and for the containers.
- the counting device is preferably a line-by-line camera, preferably with a CCD sensor, the scanning line of which is transverse, preferably rectangular, extends over the product belt.
- this line scan camera for controlling the picker during the passage of the product belt at a defined Place, namely the line scanned by the camera, in front of the Picker area the position of each individual product on the Product band and its location determined, and in the computer under Taking into account the transport speed of the products and the distance between the scanned line and the Picker position further processed to pinpoint the picker Grab the individual products and transfer them to the container including the necessary rotation of the product Taxes.
- the first camera for the Counting the individual products arriving on the product belt to control the container feed on the one hand and the second camera to control the picker on the other hand in a single camera be combined, provided that they are sufficiently far before the start the picker area is arranged to timely Release the next container on the container belt enable.
- Control computer or a data bus together is connected in terms of control technology, it is possible to set one and the same picker not only for filling one but also alternately one or the other conveyor belt to use.
- a picker line 1 is shown in the top view in running direction 20, i.e. from left to right, individual products 2, which are arranged arbitrarily on a product belt 6 under the Go through pickers 4a, b.
- a cross is made across the Product line 6 running line by means of a first Line scan 8 scanned.
- the line camera 8 is as well each of the pickers 4a, b with a central control 11, the one Computer includes, connected.
- the empty containers 3 are placed on the container belt 7 transported up and by means of a across the container belt 7th extending stopper 17 against which the foremost empty container bumps, jammed.
- the stopper 17 is also with the controller 11 connected.
- the first pent-up empty container 3 is always then released as soon as such under the first line camera 8 Number of individual products 2 on the product belt 6 has passed through it, as is the number of fillings of a container 3 corresponds.
- Container 3 after the release roughly parallel to that for him certain products 2 runs, should preferably be the first Line camera 8 or its scanning line approximately at the level of Trailing edge of the front most jammed, at the stop 17 adjacent, container 3 are located or even in Running direction 20 set back to the container approximately in the Run parallel to the middle of the longitudinal region of the product belt 6 in which the corresponding products are located.
- the container belt 7 is approximately the same Speed as the product belt 6 is in the right half of the figure a one-piece solution trained product and container belt shown.
- the pickers 4a, 4b are - as is known per se - mostly with one extending over at least the product band 6, bridge-like base frame on which the Picker arm 5 is articulated.
- the picker arm 5 usually consists of an upper arm 13a, b, the one by a shoulder joint 15 on the base frame substantially vertical axis is pivotally attached.
- Forearm 12a, 12b is also again approximately vertical Axis pivotally attached.
- the movement of the forearm 12a, 12b takes place via a forearm parallelogram 14a, 14b, a parallel strut of the upper arm 13a, 13b.
- a sucker 16 attached, which - after control of a defined position in the horizontal plane through the controller 11 - focus on one there located individual product 2 lowers, then lifts and into the container 3 after rotation about a vertical axis lowered according to the desired, correct orientation.
- suckers 16a, 16b of the pickers 4a the individual positions on the constantly moving product belt 6 that started must be known, is by means of the first picker 4a assigned second line camera when running through the Individual products 2 under the scan line of these line cameras 10 each Position at which a single product 2 is registered and the rotational position of the individual product in the control 11 saved, as well as taking into account the Belt speed, which is not always constant in practice, calculated further.
- control 11 uses the product belt 6 individual product 2 that has already been accepted is also taken into account, so that the still existing and to be implemented Products from the subsequent picker movements or subsequent pickers 4b, etc. can be implemented.
- the first one registers Line scan camera 8 not only the number of those passing under it Individual products 2, but instead of the second line camera 10 also immediately their orientation and position, so that overall only a single line scan camera is necessary.
- a separate container belt 7 has the advantage that its Speed independent of that of the product belt 6 can be regulated:
- the container belt 7 can move faster are as the product band 6, so that in the area of the picker 4a, b the containers 3 the individual products 2 assigned to them overtake.
- Separate container belts 7a, b can also be used to around - as shown in the left part of the figure - two separate ones
- Container belts 7a, b run on both sides of the product belt 6 on which different containers 3 or containers to be filled differently.
- the container tapes 7a, b can also be used with each other run at different speeds, so that's one Product tape 7a is to be filled primarily, while the second, slower running product belt 7b as a buffer if not enough existing empty containers on the first conveyor belt serves or - what z. B. with different on the product belt 6 incoming individual products 2 is the case - these Individual products not in the correct quantity relation to each other available.
- Line cameras 8, 10 not only the area of the product belt 6 to be scanned, but also the area of the container belt 7, and the stopper 17 for the container belt 7 in the running direction only after the scan line of the corresponding line scan camera to arrange:
