Figure 3 and Figure 4 The specific structure of the first adsorption component 4 is as follows:
[0051] It includes a main board 41 and a plurality of support boards 42. The main board 41 is provided with one support board. The middle of the support board 42 is perpendicular to one side of the main board 41 and welded. In this embodiment, there are four support boards 42, which are distributed at the bottom of both ends of the main board 41 in pairs, and the two support boards 42 at each end of the main board 41 are equally spaced. A plurality of movable plates 43 are provided on the top of the support board 42. A long hole 1 431 is provided on the movable plate 43 along its length direction.

The nuts here are provided with two misaligned force-applying ends.
[0052] Combination Figure 2 and Figure 4 , an adsorbent 5 is fixedly arranged on the circular hole of the movable plate 43, and the adsorbent 5 includes a suction cup 51 with a corrugated shape, and a vent rod 52 connected to the end of the suction cup 51, and the vent rod 52 is tightly connected to the suction cup 51. Considering that the diameter of the circular hole is usually larger than the diameter of the vent rod 52, a rubber ring 521 is sleeved on the outer peripheral wall of the vent rod 52. The inner ring diameter of the rubber ring 521 is slightly smaller than the outer peripheral diameter of the vent rod 52, and the outer ring diameter of the rubber ring 521 is slightly larger than the diameter of the circular hole. In this way, the elastic effect of the rubber ring 521 can be used to fix the vent rod 52 on the circular hole. And the suction cup 51 should be facing downward.
[0053] In this embodiment, combined with Figure 3, four adsorption members 5 are arranged on each of the two support plates 42 located away from the geometric center of the main board 41. On one of the support plates 42, the adsorption members 5 are evenly divided in pairs at the two ends of the support plate 42 separated by the main board 41, and are arranged at equal intervals. All adsorption members 5 on these two support plates 42 are arranged away from the geometric center of the main board 41. Eight movable plates 43 are arranged on the other two support plates 42.

The second transverse movement mechanism 312 has the same structure as the first transverse movement mechanism 22, and is also a screw transmission mechanism, including a second moving frame 3121, a second screw, a second guide rod, and a second servo motor. The difference is that the second moving frame 3121 spans over the second support seat 13 and the third support seat 14, and the height of the second moving frame 3121 is higher than that of the first moving frame 221. The shape of the second robot arm 31 is the same as that of the first robot arm 21, and one end of the second robot arm 31 is also provided on the second moving frame 3121 in the same manner. The second lifting mechanism 311 is cylinder two, which is fixed to one end of the second robot arm 31 away from the second moving frame 3121, and one end of the second robot arm 31 away from the second moving frame 3121 is arranged above the second temporary storage area 131, and the output end of cylinder two is also downward. The difference is that the extension range of the output end of cylinder two is greater than the extension range of the output end of cylinder one.

The second adsorption assembly 33 is arranged on the output end of the second cylinder. The second adsorption assembly 33 is placed above the second temporary storage area 131. There are two third robotic arms 32. One end of the third robotic arm 32 is fixed to the side of the second robotic arm 31, and the other end of the third robotic arm 32 is located beside the second adsorption assembly 33.

[0058] A movable rail 3223 and a servo motor 3224 are provided in the fixed square tube 3221. The cross section of the movable rail 3223 is in a "T" shape. The top horizontal plate of the movable rail 3223 is placed in the fixed square tube 3221. One vertical side of the movable rail 3223 passes through the bar hole 3222 and extends to the outside of the bottom of the fixed square tube 3221. The overall length of the movable rail 3223 is greater than the length of the fixed square tube 3221. The top surface of the top horizontal plate of the movable rail 3223 is provided with a rack 3225 along the length direction of the movable rail 3223.

[0071] A thin plate stacking method is different from the second embodiment in that the thin plates 60 are stacked using the lifting platform 7 mentioned in the third embodiment.
[0072] The embodiments of this specific implementation method are all preferred embodiments of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the present invention in turn. Therefore, any equivalent changes made based on the structure, shape, and principle of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
