PALLET DISMANTLING WITH GUIDED ALIGNMENT

The present disclosure illustrates pallet dismantling systems and methods. The disclosure provides pallet dismantling systems that use alignment forks， guides， and cutting tools to simplify the dismantling of pallets. The alignment fork comprising cantilevers with contact surfaces that abut a deckboard surface coupled to one or more stringers of the received pallet causing a junction between the deckboard surface and the one or more stringers to be in-line with the contact surfaces. Further， the dismantling system may comprise a cutting tool positioned planar to the contact surfaces of the cantilevers at a point along the alignment fork， the cutting tool to separate the one or more deckboards abutting the contact surfaces from the one or more stringers.

本公开阐述了托盘拆解系统及拆解方法。本公开提供了采用定位叉（alignment forks）、导向组件与切割工具以简化托盘拆解流程的托盘拆解系统。所述定位叉包含带有接触面的悬臂（cantilevers），该接触面与待拆解托盘的一根或多根纵梁（stringers）相连的铺板（deckboard）表面抵接，使得铺板表面与该一根或多根纵梁之间的接合处与所述接触面保持对齐。此外，该拆解系统可包含沿定位叉设置、且与悬臂接触面共面的切割工具，该切割工具用于将与接触面抵接的一根或多根铺板与该一根或多根纵梁分离。
