[0022] See attached document Figure 1-3 A fully automatic feeding machine includes a control base 1, a hopper 2, a vibratory feeder 3, a material distribution and storage bin 4, and a lifting bucket module 5. The lifting bucket module 5 includes a vertical lifting mechanism 501, a lifting bucket 502, a discharge assembly 503, and a discharge bucket 504. The lifting bucket 502 is slidably connected to the vertical lifting mechanism 501. The vibratory feeder 3 includes a vibratory base 301 and a linear vibration guide rail 302. One end of the linear vibration guide rail 302 is connected to the discharge port of the hopper 2, and the other end is placed above the material distribution and storage bin 4. The discharge port of the material distribution and storage bin 4 is connected to the lifting bucket 502. The material distribution and storage bin 4 is provided with a discharge valve plate 6, which is connected to the receiving port of the lifting bucket 502.

[0023] The control base 1 is welded from a high-strength metal frame and has lockable rollers at the bottom to adapt to different usage environments and facilitate handling. The hopper 2 is fixed to one side of the control base 1 by bolts. Its interior is an inverted frustum-shaped structure with mirror-polished inner walls. The outlet of the hopper 2 is sealed to the inlet end of the linear vibration guide rail 302 of the vibrating plate 3, and a silicone sealing ring is provided at the connection to prevent material leakage.

[0024] The vibratory base 301 of the vibratory plate 3 is embedded with an electromagnetic vibrator. Its vibration frequency can be adjusted by the knob on the control panel of the base 1. The linear vibratory guide rail 302 is smoothly conveyed to the material distribution storage bin 4 under the action of vibration. The other end of the linear vibratory guide rail 302 is suspended above the material distribution storage bin 4 through the transition connecting plate. The material level sensor 7 identifies whether the material is full and performs intermittent conveying to avoid material accumulation.

[0025] The top opening of the material distribution storage bin 4 is connected to the end of the vertical vibration guide rail 302. The bottom discharge port is set at an angle downward and its size matches the receiving port of the lifting bucket 502 to ensure that the material falls accurately into the lifting bucket 502. The sides of the material distribution storage bin 4 are fixed by brackets to ensure structural stability.

[0026] The vertical lifting mechanism 501 in the bucket module 5 adopts a high-precision synchronous belt slide table with high positioning accuracy. The vertical lifting mechanism 501 is fixed to the rear end of the control base 1, and the bucket 502 is slidably connected to the guide rail of the vertical lifting mechanism 501 through a slider.

[0027] The flip cover 505 covers the discharge port of the lifting bucket 502. When the lifting bucket 502 rises to the unloading position, the flip cover 505 is pushed open by the roller of the unloading assembly 503. There is a spring between the flip cover 505 and the lifting bucket 502. After being pushed open, the spring is in a stretched state. After unloading is completed, it automatically closes under the action of the spring's restoring force.

[0028] The unloading assembly 503 is fixedly connected to the mounting plate at the upper end of the vertical lifting mechanism 501 by bolts. When the lifting bucket 502 rises to the top, the unloading assembly 503 presses down the flip cover 505, and the flip cover 505 tilts upward to open the discharge port of the lifting bucket 502.

[0029] The unloading hopper 504 is installed on one side of the vertical lifting mechanism 501 via a U-shaped fixing frame. The fixing frame is welded to the control base 1 and docked with the lifting hopper 502. It is used to receive materials and unload them into the production equipment.

[0030] The material level sensor 7 installed above the material storage bin 4 outputs a high-level signal when the material accumulates to the sensor detection position, controlling the vibrating plate 3 to stop feeding. The material level sensor 7 above the unloading hopper 504 is used to detect the material level in the supporting production equipment. When it detects that the material is full, the sensor triggers the equipment to stop, realizing automatic feeding closed-loop control.

[0031] The discharge valve plate 6 is located between the material distribution storage bin 4 and the lifting bucket 502. Both sides of the discharge valve plate 6 are connected to the discharge port of the material distribution storage bin 4 and the receiving port of the lifting bucket 502. The discharge valve plate 6 and the material distribution storage bin 4 are connected by a spring. When the lifting bucket 502 descends to the receiving position, the bottom of the bucket pushes the discharge valve plate 6 to move downward against the spring force, thereby opening the discharge port and allowing the material to fall into the lifting bucket 502.

[0032] A transparent protective cover is installed around the vertical lifting mechanism 501. The material can be plexiglass or acrylic. The transparent protective cover is connected to the control base 1 through a slot. A locking screw is set at the bottom to ensure tight protection. When the protective cover is accidentally opened, the limit switch built into the equipment triggers the equipment to stop the alarm and prevent safety accidents from occurring.

[0033] The above-described embodiments are merely illustrative of certain implementations of this utility model, and their descriptions are relatively specific and detailed. However, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of this utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these modifications and improvements all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model patent should be determined by the appended claims.
