[0013] The implementation is performed in the following steps:

[0014] Step S1: When storing a traffic cone, place the cone with its base facing right and its head facing left in the left opening of the storage box, and the second photoelectric sensor detects the traffic cone.

[0015] Step S2: When the second photoelectric sensor detects a traffic cone, the first push-pull electromagnet is turned on, which drives the first wedge-shaped head to extend and engage the right side of the traffic cone base. The cylinder is turned on, which drives the U-shaped linkage frame, the first push-pull electromagnet, and the first wedge-shaped head to move rightward, and the first photoelectric sensor detects the traffic cone in the storage box.

[0016] Step S3: When the first photoelectric sensor detects a traffic cone, the cylinder is closed, the U-shaped linkage frame stops moving, the first push-pull electromagnet drives the first wedge-shaped head to retract, the traffic cone base is released, the cylinder is opened and drives the U-shaped linkage frame to move to the left end of the cylinder to wait for the next traffic cone to be stored; when the first photoelectric sensor does not detect a traffic cone, the cylinder drives the U-shaped linkage frame to move to the right end of the cylinder, the first push-pull electromagnet drives the first wedge-shaped head to retract, the traffic cone base is released, and the second push-pull electromagnet is in an extended state, the second wedge-shaped head clamps the traffic cone, the cylinder is opened and drives the U-shaped linkage frame to move to the left end of the cylinder to wait for the next traffic cone to be stored.

[0017] Step S4: When removing a traffic cone, the third push-pull electromagnet is turned on, causing the third wedge-shaped head to extend. The straight surface of the third wedge-shaped head contacts the bottom surface of the base of the previous traffic cone, and the inclined surface of the third wedge-shaped head contacts the top surface of the base of the rightmost traffic cone. As the third wedge-shaped head extends further, the rightmost traffic cone gradually separates from the previous traffic cone. Simultaneously, the second push-pull electromagnet is turned on, causing the second wedge-shaped head to retract. Under the action of gravity, the traffic cone slides rightward onto the cushion.

[0018] Step S5: After the traffic cone is removed, the second push-pull electromagnet is turned on, which drives the second wedge-shaped head to extend. The third push-pull electromagnet is turned on, which drives the third wedge-shaped head to retract. The other traffic cones slide to the rightmost side of the storage box under the action of gravity and are limited by the second wedge-shaped head.

[0019] The advantages of the present invention are as follows: traffic cones can be stacked and stored at the same height, thus preventing the traffic cones from being stacked too high and tipping over. The third push-pull electromagnet drives the third wedge-shaped head to extend, and the straight surface of the third wedge-shaped head abuts the bottom surface of the base of the previous traffic cone, while the inclined surface of the third wedge-shaped head abuts the top surface of the base of the rightmost traffic cone. As the third wedge-shaped head extends further, the rightmost traffic cone gradually separates from the previous traffic cone, and the traffic cone slides out of the storage box under the action of gravity, making it easy to take out the traffic cone.
