Definitions
- the present invention relates to the field of industrial mechanics, in particular to sorting and packaging systems. Even more in detail, the present invention proposes a new and innovative system for sorting and packaging textile articles.
- Prior art
- a plurality of packaging machinery and methods for articles or, more generally, for industrial products are known in the prior art. Very often, the need of the industry, before packaging, however, is to sort the objects by different types that are produced in the same plant.
- the automatic sorting system is particularly used by companies that deal with distribution and deliveries, such as postal services.
- the only method to ensure a correct distribution of the objects in the corresponding packaging is the sorting carried out by hand by workers assigned to the separation of the objects.
- the object of the present invention is therefore to propose a reliable and automated method which allows a correct sorting of objects of different types and their separate packaging. Even more in detail, the present invention specifically falls within the supply of textile articles for covering beds and includes a step of checking the cleanliness and integrity of said textile articles and sanitizing them before the final packaging.
- a method for the automatic separation, check and packaging of a plurality of different types of articles is described. Said method is adapted to verify the conformity of said articles to predetermined standards of cleanliness and integrity of the material.
- Said method consists in a plurality of steps to which a specific area is advantageously associated, which can also be sealed or, even more advantageously, decontaminated, with optionally sterile areas.
- (A) separation step that occurs in a first area in which a first robot, provided with a clamp, is adapted to grip a single piece and hang it on a dedicated hook.
- said hook is provided with a loading cell which, advantageously, is adapted to understand, by analyzing the weight on the hook, the presence of one or more articles.
- a second robot provided with a viewing system, is adapted to grip a single article from said hook by one of its corners. Said second robot, advantageously, hangs the article in front of an air jet that completely spreads out the article while a system of cameras and laser sensors identifies to which type the article in question belongs to.
- the second robot which consists of a common mechanical arm, is adapted to place the article picked on a specific transport mechanism dedicated to that type of article and adapted to transport it hanging by at least one of the ends thereof;
- this checking step B the system verifies the conformity of each article with certain standard parameters. In particular, one wants to verify that the article in question is not stained, does not have thickenings and is not pierced.
- the previously sorted article is transferred inside said second area and is impinged by an air jet which results in the total spreading out thereof, which, advantageously, occurs in front of a plurality of cameras.
- a plurality of chromatic headlamps illuminate said article at different predetermined frequencies. In this way, it is advantageously possible for said cameras to detect the presence of any type of stain, even if not visible to the naked eye, fouling or piercing.
- said article is placed in a second track that leads to a disposal area, while if the article is judged conforming, it is sent, via a first track, to a third area to continue with the processing steps.
- the articles are reintroduced into said second area to be again subjected to a checking step B. If, during said second checking step B, the article is again considered to be not conforming to the standard due to a stain or a thickening, it is advantageously subjected to a new washing cycle, otherwise, if the non-conformity is due to a hole, it is disposed of or destroyed;
- (C) sanitization step which takes place in a third area, also consisting of a room with partition walls and ceiling.
- this third area will be advantageously sealed since, due to an air extractor and a pressure sensor, it is advantageously maintained in a slight vacuum with respect to the external environment.
- the article is sprayed with a common disinfectant agent;
- (D) packaging step that takes place with a common packaging machine which, after having collected a predetermined number of article of the same type, packages them with a common heat-shrink film to create a hermetically sealed package.
- D in a different embodiment of the present invention, can provide for the packaging of a plurality of articles, each of which belonging to a different type.
- FIGURE 1 shows in detail the separation step (A) which takes place in the first area 9.
- the first robot 10 is seen with the clamp 11, the second robot 20 with the viewing system 21, the upper hook 12 with the loading cell 13 and an article 100 hanging thereon; there are also shown the laser cameras and sensors 40-40', the air jet 30 and the four transport mechanisms 50-50' -50"- 50"' differentiated by type of article 100.
- FIGURE 2 shows in detail the checking step (B) which takes place in the second area 55.
- the transport mechanism 50 of a type of article 100 There are shown the transport mechanism 50 of a type of article 100, the cameras 57-57', the chromatic headlamps 58-58' and the air jet 56.
- FIGURE 3 shows in detail the sanitization step (A) which takes place in the third area 60.
- the transport mechanism 50. a is shown, on which a conforming article 100 is hung. Furthermore, the atomizers 63-63', the air extractor 61 and the pressure sensor 62 can be seen.
- FIGURE 4 shows a diagram of a possible system for the automatic separation, check and packaging of a plurality of articles to the present invention.
- a reintroduction mechanism 50.c-50'.c-50".c-50"' .c brings the articles back to the second area 55 for a second checking step B.
- FIG. 4 shows one of the possible working patterns of a system adapted to carry out the method for the automatic separation, check and packaging of articles described in detail below.
- said articles belong to four different types, in particular, a first type consisting of lower sheets for a single bed provided with elasticized edges at the four corners; a second type consisting of common sheets for a single bed provided with elastic edges at the two corners that coincide with the corners of the bed near the user's feet lying down; a third type consisting of common pillowcases for any pillow and a fourth type consisting of common slightly lined bedspreads.
- the object of the present patent is to provide a method able to sort the articles by type, verify the cleanliness and integrity thereof, disinfect them and, finally, package them in one of the following ways:
- the method proposed herein starts in a first area 9, in which the articles 100 are sorted on four transport mechanisms 50-50'-50"-50"', each of which is dedicated to a single type of article 100.
- the garments are introduced in a second area 55 from which they are further sorted among articles 100 conforming to the standard provided, which are routed through a first track 50.a-50' .a-50".a- 50"'. a to a third area 60, and articles 100 different from the standard provided, which are first reintroduced in said second area 55 through a reintroduction track 50.c-50' .c-50".c- 50"'. c, and subsequently, if found to be non-conforming to the standard provided, they are destroyed in a disposal area 80.
- Fig. 1 an example of the composition of said first area 9 is shown; likewise, Fig. 2 represents a second area 55 and Fig. 3 relates to a third area 60.
- the first separation step (A) takes place through a first robot 10, provided with a clamp 11, which picks an article 100 and hangs it on a hook 12.
- the latter is provided with a loading cell 13 which, by analyzing the weight thereof, is capable of quantifying the articles 100 hanging on said hook 12.
- a second robot 20, consisting of a common mechanical arm provided with a viewing system 21, is adapted to pick a single article hanging on said hook 12 and hang it by one of its corners in front of an air jet 30.
- a system of cameras and laser sensors 40-40' is adapted to identify the shape of the article 100 and therefore the type it belongs to.
- the article 100 is positioned by said second robot 20 on a specific transport mechanism 50-50'-50"-50"' dedicated to that type of article.
- Said second area 55 consists of a room (therefore provided with partition walls and ceiling) in which there are a plurality of cameras 57-57', an air jet 56 and a plurality of chromatic headlamps 58-58' . While, even in this area, the air jet 56 causes the complete spreading of the article 100, the chromatic headlamps 58-58' illuminate it with different predetermined frequencies, allowing the cameras 57-57' to detect any possible deviation from the expected standards.
- these deviations may be stains, thickening due, for example, to the encrustation of substances that the washing has not been able to remove, or piercing due to the wear of the material of the article 100.
- the article 100 is transferred, via a second track 50.b-50'.b-50".b-50"' .b, to a disposal area 80. If, on the other hand, the article 100 is deemed to conform to the intended standard, it is transferred, via a first track 50.a-50' .a- 50".a-50"' .a, to a third area 60 for the continuation of the processing steps.
- said third area 60 is shown, in which the sanitization step C of the articles 100 considered compliant with the standard in the previous checking step B takes place.
- Said third area 60 is sealed and is kept in a light vacuum with respect to the external environment by an air extractor 61 connected to a pressure sensor 62.
- a plurality of atomizers 63-63' spray a common disinfectant substance thereon.
- the article 100 is transferred to a common packaging machine 90 to undergo a packaging step D, according to one of the two previously illustrated parameters, in a hermetically sealed package.
