The following describes some non-limiting embodiments of the invention with reference to the accompanying drawings. The described embodiments are merely a part rather than all of the embodiments of the invention. All other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the disclosure shall fall within the scope of the disclosure.
As shown in
As shown in
Put the case 5 on the detection conveying trough 4 first, put the packing box 9 on the packing conveying trough 3, and transport the case under the detection device 6 through the detection conveying trough 4 to detect it by the detection device 6, Divided into qualified products and unqualified products, if it is unqualified product, the transfer device 8 will not detect it, so that it is directly removed from the end of the detection conveying trough 4, if it is a qualified product, the transfer device 8 will make it Falling from the screening opening and transferred to the packing conveying trough 3, the detection conveying trough 4 will first send the packing box 9 into the packing device 10, and then transport the case to the packing box of the packing device 10 Within 9, this completes the integration of mobile phone case detection, packing and boxing, which greatly improves the processing efficiency.
As shown in
The operation of the packing device 10 is that the box 21 is put in first, and the box 21 is docked with the packing and receiving opening 22 on the discharge conveying trough 2, and then the packing and receiving cylinder 23 is used to drive the box The packing and receiving block 24 rises, so that the distance between the packing and receiving block 24 and the packing conveying trough 3 reaches an appropriate value. The packing conveying trough 3 will send the packing box 9 to the packing and receiving block 24. Then the case 5 is sent into the packing box 9 to complete the packing of a case, and then the height of a packing box 9 is lowered through the packing and receiving block 24 to continue the subsequent packing operation when all boxes are packed After completion, the packing and receiving block 24 will fall below the box body 1, and then the discharge pushing block 12 is driven by the discharge pushing cylinder 11 to move the packed box body out of the discharge conveying trough 2. The above operation may implement stacking and packing, and at the same time will not affect the delivery of the box.
As shown in
The packing limit block 25 cooperates with the design of the packing receiving guide rod 26, which may ensure that the packing and receiving block 24 is kept level during the lifting process, and at the same time, the design of the packing limiting block 25 and the packing limit matching block 27 may Ensure that the height of the first packing box 9 is packed into the fashion packing and receiving block 24, to ensure a good packing effect, and also to ensure that the packing and receiving block 24 and the box body 21 are sent out when the box body 21 needs to be sent out after the packing is completed Complete disengagement.
As shown in
The design of the transfer device 8 is that at the initial stage, the transfer receiving block 15 is flush with the detection conveying trough 4. When the screen of the product conveying trough screening opening 7 is detected, if it is detected as a non-conforming product, it will continue to be conveyed directly, such as When it is detected as a qualified product, the transfer receiving block 15 is driven down by the transfer lift cylinder 14 and then the case 5 is dropped until the transfer receiving block 15 falls into the transfer matching notch 16, so that the case 5 will fall in the packing conveying trough 3 on.
As shown in
When the case 5 is transported to the detection station and is intercepted by the detection interception block 39, the detection lift rod 33 is driven by a group of detection lift cylinders 32 to raise the case 5 to tilt, so that the CCD detection device 40 visually detects the case 5, And then reset this group of detection lift cylinders 32, and make another group of detection lift cylinders 32 drive another group of detection lift rods 33 to rise, so that the case 5 tilts again, this is done by tilting twice with the CCD detection device 40 may detect the junction of the side plate and the bottom plate of the case 5 without blind spots for visual detection, ensuring good detection results.
As shown in
The design of the detection contraction block 35 and the detection contraction spring 34 may be correspondingly contracted when the case 5 is tilted, to ensure that there is no hard squeezing with the case 5 and the housing may be prevented from being damaged.
As shown in
After the detection interception block finishes interception the case 5, the size detection block 42 is driven down by the size detection cylinder 41, so that the vertical portion of the size detection block 42 contacts the bottom plate of the detection conveying trough 4, and passes through the first contact sensor 43 Whether an induction signal is generated to judge whether the length of the case 5 is qualified. If an induction signal is generated, it proves that the first contact sensor 43 is in contact with the case 5, which means that the length of the case 5 is qualified, otherwise it proves that the length of the case 5 is insufficient.
As shown in
After the size detection is completed, the position detection installation block 45 is lowered by the position detection cylinder 44 until it cannot be lowered. Through the above operations, several detections may be completed. One is the position of the camera opening. If the pressure sensor 50 cannot produce The sensor signal proves that the position of the camera opening is deviated. The position detection block 46 is not inserted into the camera opening. If the pressure sensor 50 generates a pressure signal and the second contact sensor 47 does not generate a sensor signal, the camera opening is too large. If the second contact sensor 47 generates an induction signal, the pressure value of the pressure sensor 50 may be used to determine whether the thickness of the case 5 is acceptable, that is, if the pressure value exceeds the maximum induction value of the pressure sensor 50, the collection is proved The thickness of the case is not enough. If the pressure value is less than the minimum value of the set pressure sensor 50, it proves that the thickness of the case 5 is too large.
Optionally, a control system may be equipped to control the cooperative work of various power components, and the overall operation may also be achieved through the control buttons of each power component.
In some embodiments, The packing and conveying trough is located on both sides of the packing opening, and transports the packing box and the case to the packing opening respectively, which may implement the detection of the mobile phone case, the integration of packing and boxing, and greatly improve the processing. effectiveness.
