The material tray 16A and the blister tray 1 in the above embodiment are the same component for loading the product.

The working process and working principle of the sorting equipment in the embodiment are briefly described as follows in order to sort two products:

the two products are mixed and enter the sorting equipment from the front end of the conveyor belt 23, the products are identified by the visual identification device 18 on the vertical frame 21 when passing through the vertical frame 21, the visual identification device 18 generates relevant signals of product information and positions and transmits the signals to the grabbing mechanical arm 19, the grabbing mechanical arm 19 receives the signals transmitted by the visual identification device 18 and grabs the relevant products according to the signals, and the two products are respectively placed in the plastic sucking discs 1 in the second station 202 and the third station 203.

The fourth station 204 is used for conveying the empty blister tray 1 to the lower side of the material suction device 24, and then the blister tray is sucked from the first station 201 by the blister tray suction mechanism 10 of the material suction device 24 and placed at the corresponding positions on the third station 203 and the second station 202. The first station 201 is used for conveying the film 2, and when the blister tray 1 of the second station 202 or the third station 203 is filled with the product, the film sucking means 11 sucks the film 2 from the fourth station 204 and prevents it from being on the blister tray 1 filled with the product. When a predetermined number of blister trays 1 are placed on the support frame of the second station 202 and the third station 203, the corresponding material handling devices 25 deliver the products.

The concrete working process of the material suction device is as follows: first, the vacuum-pumping device corresponding to the suction mechanism 10 of the suction tray is activated, so that the inside of the suction tray 34 is slightly negatively pressurized. The first lifting component in the plastic sucking mechanism 10 moves, the lifting driver 41 drives the limiting rods 43 at the two ends of the lifting plate 42 to move downwards through the lifting plate 42, the mounting plate 9 connected to the lower end of the limiting rods 43 moves downwards, and the rotating motor 6 connected to the mounting plate 9, the transition plate 8 and the first sucking component mounted on the transition plate 8 all move downwards. When the suction tray 34 of the first suction module is attached to the suction tray 1, the suction tray 1 is sucked.

Then, in contrast to the above-described lowering process, the blister tray 1 is driven to rise by the first lifting assembly. And during the ascent, the lateral movement of the suction mechanism 10 of the blister tray and the rotation of the blister tray 1 can be performed simultaneously.

When the plastic sucking mechanism 10 needs to move laterally, the driving mechanism corresponding to the plastic sucking mechanism 10 on the lower horizontal plate 123 starts to operate, and the third driving motor 131 is started to drive the driving belt 132 via the driving wheel 133 and further drive the plastic sucking mechanism 10 to move to the preset position.

When the plastic sucking disc 1 needs to be driven to rotate, the rotating motor 6 is started to drive the transition plate 8 and the fixing plate 31 to rotate, so that the plastic sucking disc 1 rotates by a preset angle.

And then the plastic sucking disc 1 is descended to a preset position through the first lifting assembly, the vacuum pumping equipment corresponding to the plastic sucking disc suction mechanism 10 stops working, and normal pressure or micro-positive pressure is generated in the adsorption disc 34, so that the plastic sucking disc 1 is placed at the preset position.

Then, the vacuum pumping device corresponding to the diaphragm sucking mechanism 11 is started, the lifting driver 41 of the second lifting assembly drives the limiting rods 43 at the two ends of the lifting plate 42 to move downwards through the lifting plate 42, and then drives the second sucking assembly at the lower end of the limiting rods 43 to move downwards, and when the sucking disc 34 on the second sucking assembly is attached to the diaphragm 2, the diaphragm 2 is sucked. At this moment, the vibration assembly 5 is started, the vibration driver 51 drives the guide plate to move up and down quickly, and the adsorption disc 34 connected to the guide plate drives the membrane 2 to vibrate quickly, so that other membranes 2 brought by static electricity and the like fall off, and only one adsorbed membrane 2 is reserved.

Then, the driving mechanism of the rack corresponding to the film sucking mechanism 11 starts to operate, the third driving motor 131 is started, and the driving belt 132 is driven by the driving wheel 133 to drive the film sucking mechanism 11 to move to the upper side of the plastic sucking disk 1. Then, the lifting driver 41 of the second lifting assembly drives the film 2 to descend to the upper side of the plastic sucking disc 1, the vacuum pumping device corresponding to the film sucking mechanism 11 stops working, and the normal pressure or the micro-positive pressure is applied to the inside of the sucking disc 34, so that the film 2 is placed on the upper side of the plastic sucking disc 1.

In the above description, the steps such as rotation, lateral movement, etc. are described for the sake of more clear illustration of the respective processes, but in actual use, not every step is required, and the order and timing for performing every step do not need to be the same as those described above.

The operation and principle of the material conveying equipment in the second station 202 or the third station 203 are briefly described as follows: first, the material trays 16A loaded with products are sequentially placed on the supporting frame, and the clamp rod driver 44A drives the clamp rods 43A to arrange the materials in a horizontal position, so that the material trays 16A are positioned in the same vertical direction. And a material tray 16A is arranged, the first driving motor 2A drives the gear 3A to move downwards along the rack 4A, the bearing frame is driven to move downwards by the thickness of the material tray 16A, then the discharging equipment continues discharging, and the steps are repeated until the set number of trays are placed on the bearing frame.

Afterwards, the first driving motor 2A drives the supporting frame and the material to move downwards through the rack-and-pinion mechanism, and when the material tray 16A contacts the conveying belt 26A, the first driving motor 2A can stop moving and also can continue to move downwards a little to facilitate the material tray 16A to transit to the conveying belt. Meanwhile, the second driving motor 29A is started, or the second driving motor 29A is started before so as to realize seamless docking, and efficiency is improved. The second driving motor 29A drives the transmission shaft 27A to rotate, and the transmission shaft 27A drives the transmission belt 26A to continuously run through the driving wheels 28A at the two ends of the transmission shaft 27A, so as to realize the movement of the material tray 16A on the transmission belt 26A. When the material moves to the baffle 39A, there is a material taking mechanism or manpower to take the material.

When the material speed that vertical material conveyer transported gets is too fast, and get on the horizontal material transmission device material speed when too slow, the former one pushes away the material and can pass through safety mechanism, and later elevator motor 35A drive lifter plate 34A rises, stops the one pile of material formation in the back, prevents that one pile of material in the back from moving forward and one pile of material in the front from colliding, has promoted whole process's security.

If the feeding or receiving manner from bottom to top is adopted during use, the process is generally opposite to the above, and the description is omitted.
