HANDLING SYSTEM FOR HANDLING SHEETS OF CARDBOARD OR SIMILAR MATERIAL - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240051774 titled 'HANDLING SYSTEM FOR HANDLING SHEETS OF CARDBOARD OR SIMILAR MATERIAL

Simplified Explanation

The present invention is a handling installation designed for automated production facilities to handle sheets of cardboard or similar material. It consists of a first receiving station that receives packages made of cardboard sheets, and a second distribution station where the sheets are delivered face-down from the receiving station using sheet handling means. The first and second stations are independent modules. The handling means include a robot arm with a head equipped with clamping means to hold the package of sheets on any of the four sides. The head has a hinge point that can be coupled to a robot arm, allowing for convenient movement and orientation of the clamping means in any coordinate axis. The robot arm is mounted on a base that is independent of the first and second stations.

  • The invention is a handling installation for automated production facilities to handle cardboard sheets or similar materials.
  • It includes a first receiving station and a second distribution station, which are independent modules.
  • The handling means consist of a robot arm with a head equipped with clamping means to hold the package of sheets on any side.
  • The head of the robot arm has a hinge point that can be coupled to a robot arm, allowing for easy movement and orientation of the clamping means.
  • The robot arm is mounted on a base that is independent of the first and second stations.

Potential Applications:

  • This handling installation can be used in automated production facilities that require the handling of cardboard sheets or similar materials.
  • It can be implemented in industries such as packaging, printing, or manufacturing, where the efficient handling of sheets is crucial.

Problems Solved:

  • The handling installation solves the problem of efficiently handling sheets of cardboard or similar materials in an automated production facility.
  • It eliminates the need for manual handling, reducing the risk of errors and increasing productivity.

Benefits:

  • The independent modules of the first and second stations allow for flexibility in the layout and configuration of the handling installation.
  • The robot arm with clamping means provides a versatile and efficient method of holding and moving the packages of sheets.
  • The ability to conveniently move and orient the clamping means in any coordinate axis allows for precise handling and positioning of the sheets.
  • The installation improves productivity and reduces the risk of errors in the handling process.


Original Abstract Submitted

the present invention relates to a handling installation for handling sheets of cardboard or similar material applicable for implementation thereof in an automated production facility, comprising a first receiving station () configured to receive packages formed by cardboard sheets, each of the sheets being defined by four sides, and a second distribution station () in which the sheets are delivered face-down coming from the receiving station by means of sheet handling means. the first and second stations comprise modules that are independent from each other, the handling means comprising a robot arm provided with a head with clamping means to hold the package of sheets on any of the four sides, the head having a hinge point that can be coupled to a robot arm, capable of conveniently moving and orienting the clamping means in any of the coordinate axes, the robot arm being mounted on a base that is independent with respect to the first and second stations.
