[0018] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0019] Please see Figure 1-3 This utility model provides a technical solution: a smart distribution device for general aviation maintenance work cards, including a mounting frame, a conveying mechanism set on the upper end of the mounting frame, a mounting platform 1, and a control box 2 set on one end of the mounting frame. The mounting frame is composed of a first support frame 3, a second support frame 4, and a third support frame 5. The conveying mechanism includes multiple parallel conveyor belts 6, and the two ends of the conveyor belts 6 are respectively connected to the upper ends of the first support frame 3 and the second support frame 4. A storage slot 7 is correspondingly provided at the end of the conveyor belt 6 away from the control box 2. The mounting platform 1 is connected to the upper ends of the first support frame 3 and the third support frame 5 through a sliding mechanism. A placement slot 8 is provided on the upper surface of the mounting platform 1, and a transfer component is provided on one side of the placement slot 8 on the mounting platform 1.

[0020] It also includes an identification mechanism disposed on the transfer component, which is electrically connected to the control box 2.

[0021] The sliding mechanism includes a lead screw 9 and a guide rod 10 respectively disposed on the outer side of the upper end of the first support frame 3 and the third support frame 5. One end of the lead screw 9 is connected to a first stepper motor connected to the control box 2. A first slider is threadedly installed on the outer side of the lead screw 9. The upper end of the first slider is connected to the lower surface of the mounting platform 1. The guide rod 10 is connected to the mounting platform 1 through a second slider.

[0022] The transfer assembly includes a second stepper motor 11 disposed on the lower surface of the mounting platform 1, a rotating shaft 12 disposed on the upper surface of the mounting platform 1, and a mounting rod 13. The lower end of the rotating shaft 12 is connected to the output shaft of the second stepper motor 11, and the upper end of the rotating shaft 12 is fixedly connected to the middle part of the mounting rod 13. Both ends of the mounting rod 13 are provided with adsorption mechanisms.

[0023] The adsorption mechanism includes an electric telescopic rod 14 and a suction cup 15 mounted on the lower end of the electric telescopic rod 14.

[0024] The identification mechanism consists of two identification instruments 16, which are respectively disposed at both ends of the mounting rod 13.

[0025] Specifically, the aforementioned recognition device 16 is an OCR-based text recognition device.

[0026] Fixed partitions 17 are provided on both sides of the conveyor belt 6.

[0027] In this embodiment, the input end of the control box 2 is electrically connected to the identification device 16, and the output end of the control box 2 is electrically connected to the solenoid valves on the pipelines connected to the first stepper motor, the second stepper motor 11, the electric telescopic rod 14, and the suction cup 15.

[0028] Specifically, when using this utility model, the technician places the batch-printed work orders in the placement slot 8 with the printed side of the work orders facing upwards. The recognition device 16 takes a picture of the top work order, and the control box 2 recognizes the information on the work order. Based on the workshop information and maintenance category information, all work order cards are automatically sorted into multiple copies and sent to the storage slot 7. Personnel in each maintenance workshop can then come and collect the work orders they applied for.

[0029] In this process, after recognizing the information, the control box 2 controls the extension of the electric telescopic rod 14 and uses the suction cup 15 to pick up the topmost work order. Subsequently, the electric telescopic rod 14 resets, and the second stepper motor 11 operates, driving the work order to rotate 180° through the rotating shaft 12 and the mounting rod 13 until it moves above the conveyor belt 6. During this process, the control box 2 controls the first stepper motor to operate, driving the work order to move horizontally through the sliding mechanism. Once it moves above the correct conveyor belt 6, the control box 2 controls the suction cup 15 to release the work order, which is then collected in the storage tank 7 under the action of the conveyor belt 6.

[0030] During the above process, as the rotating shaft 12 and mounting rod 13 rotate and the mounting platform 1 moves as a whole, the recognition device 16 above the placement slot 8 takes pictures of the work order, thereby greatly shortening the work order recognition time and improving work efficiency.
