Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of automatic feeding equipment, and in particular to a feeding equipment. Background Art

[0002] The cigarette case packaging machine can wrap the wrapping paper around the cigarette bundle to form a cigarette case. Usually, the wrapping paper is in the shape of a long strip, with one end protruding into a square shape and the other end into a dovetail shape. In order to facilitate transportation and use, multiple wrapping papers are stacked into a pile, and then a piece of kraft paper is wrapped around the middle of the stack of wrapping papers along the length direction to hoop the multiple wrapping papers into a whole, while the two ends of the wrapping paper along the length direction are exposed for easy distinction. When feeding the cigarette case packaging machine, the kraft paper needs to be removed, and only the stack of wrapping papers can be conveyed to the cigarette case packaging machine.

[0003] The automatic feeding equipment in the prior art can automatically cut the kraft paper wrapped around the packaging paper, so that the kraft paper changes from a roll state to a sheet state, and then loosens the wrapping of the stacked packaging paper; then, the two ends of the stacked packaging paper are clamped by the clamping claws and lifted to a suspended state, so as to take away the kraft paper under the packaging paper for recycling, and transfer the stacked packaging paper to the cigarette box packaging machine. Because the packaging paper is thin and soft, only the two ends are stressed when it is lifted, and the middle part of the bottom lacks support, so it is easy to collapse, or even the whole stack falls, affecting normal feeding.

[0004] Therefore, it is urgent to invent a feeding device to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Summary of the invention

In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are only used to distinguish in the description and have no special meaning.

[0064] This embodiment provides a loading device, which can be used for loading workpieces 100, such as Figure 1 As shown, the workpiece 100 includes a workpiece body 101, the middle of the length direction of the workpiece body 101 is covered with a binding piece 102, and both ends of the workpiece body 101 are exposed from the binding piece 102. The loading device can cut the binding piece 102, transport the workpiece body 101 to the downstream device for use, and retract the binding piece 102. In this embodiment, the workpiece body 101 can be a plurality of stacked packaging papers, and the binding piece 102 is kraft paper.

[0065] Preferably, if Figure 2-Figure 6As shown, the loading equipment includes a frame 7, a first conveying mechanism 1, a cutting mechanism 2, a coiling mechanism 3, a transfer mechanism 4 and a pushing mechanism 5, wherein the X direction in the figure represents the length direction of the workpiece 100, the Y direction represents the conveying direction of the workpiece 100 on the first conveying mechanism 1, and the Z direction represents the vertical direction, wherein the X direction, the Y direction, and the Z direction are perpendicular to each other, and the side of the workpiece 100 facing the Y+ direction represents the front side of the workpiece 100, and the side of the workpiece 100 facing the Y- direction represents the back side of the workpiece 100. Specifically, the first conveying mechanism 1 includes a first bearing plane 111 that can carry the workpiece 100. After the workpiece 100 is placed on the first bearing plane 111, the first conveying mechanism 1 can convey the workpiece 100 to the cutting station along the Y direction. The cutting station is located at the end of the first conveying mechanism 1. The cutting mechanism 2 is arranged on the frame 7 and is located above the cutting station. The cutting mechanism 2 can cut off the bundling 102 of the workpiece 100 located at the cutting station. The winding mechanism 3 is connected to the frame 7 and is arranged at one end of the first conveying mechanism 1. The winding mechanism 3 includes a baffle assembly 31. The baffle assembly 31 can selectively rise to a level higher than the first bearing plane 111 to block the workpiece 100 or absorb the bundling 102 and move it below the first bearing plane 111. The transfer mechanism 4 can move to the end of the first conveying mechanism 1 and dock with the first bearing plane 111. The pushing mechanism 5 is arranged on the frame 7. The pushing mechanism 5 can push the workpiece body 101 along the Y direction and can push the workpiece body 101 onto the transfer mechanism 4.

[0066] When the feeding device of this embodiment is working, the baffle assembly 31 located at one end of the first conveying mechanism 1 first moves to a position above the first bearing plane 111; then, the first conveying mechanism 1 then conveys the workpiece 100 to the cutting station at the end of the first conveying mechanism 1, at which time the baffle assembly 31 can limit the workpiece 100 to prevent the workpiece 100 from falling from the end of the first conveying mechanism 1; then, the pushing assembly pushes the workpiece 100 from the workpiece 100 along the Y direction, so that the workpiece 100 abuts against the baffle assembly 31, further ensuring the position accuracy of the workpiece 100; then, the cutting assembly cuts off the bundle 102, and the bundle 102 is rolled into a roll. The workpiece 101 is changed into a sheet shape, thereby loosening the covering of the workpiece body 101; then, the baffle assembly 31 absorbs the binding piece 102 located at the front of the workpiece 100, and moves to the bottom of the first conveying mechanism 1, thereby driving the binding piece 102 located at the front of the workpiece 100 to avoid the front of the workpiece body 101; then, the pushing assembly pushes the two ends of the back of the workpiece body 101 (i.e., the position not covered by the binding piece 102) along the Y direction, thereby pushing the workpiece body 101 onto the transfer mechanism 4, and the transfer mechanism 4 then transports the workpiece body 101 to the downstream position, at which time the coiling mechanism 3 further recycles the binding piece 102. The loading equipment of this embodiment can ensure the position accuracy of the workpiece 100 when cutting the binding piece 102, thereby ensuring the accuracy of cutting and avoiding damage to the workpiece body 101; when separating the binding piece 102 and the workpiece body 101, the workpiece body 101 can be directly pushed as a whole, without lifting the workpiece body 101 for transportation, thereby avoiding the collapse and scattering of the workpiece body 101.

[0067] In this embodiment, Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the first conveying mechanism 1 includes a carrier 12 and a conveyor belt 11 supported on the carrier 12. The conveyor belt 11 is extended along the Y direction as a whole. The conveying surface of the conveyor belt 11 is a first bearing plane 111. The end of the conveyor belt 11 close to the coiling mechanism 3 is a cutting station. After the workpiece 100 is placed on the conveyor belt 11, the conveyor belt 11 rotates to drive the workpiece 100 to move along the Y direction until it moves to the cutting station. Of course, in other embodiments, the first conveying mechanism 1 can also be other structures with a bearing plane and capable of conveying the workpiece 100 to move along the Y direction, which is not specifically limited here.

[0068] Preferably, if Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the baffle assembly 31 includes a baffle body 311 and a first adsorption member 312. The baffle body 311 includes a stop surface 3111 for blocking the workpiece 100. The baffle body 311 can move up and down along the Z direction. The first adsorption member 312 is arranged on the baffle body 311. The first adsorption member 312 can selectively retract into the baffle body 311 or protrude from the stop surface 3111 and adsorb the cut bundling 102. When the baffle body 311 moves above the first bearing plane 111, the stop surface 3111 faces the first conveying mechanism 1, and the first adsorption component 22 is in a state of being retracted into the baffle body 311. The stop surface 3111 can abut against the front of the workpiece 100 that moves to the cutting station, thereby positioning and limiting the workpiece 100. When the cutting mechanism 2 cuts the binding member 102, the first adsorption component 312 moves to a position protruding from the stop surface 3111 and adsorbs the binding member 102 located in front of the workpiece 100, and drives the binding member 102 in front of the workpiece 100 to move to a position below the first bearing plane 111, thereby avoiding the subsequent movement of the workpiece body 101. It should be noted that at this time, only the part of the binding member 102 located in front of the workpiece body 101 moves below the first bearing plane 111 with the adsorption component 22, and the part of the binding member 102 located on the bottom surface of the workpiece body 101 is still located below the workpiece body 101.

[0069] In this embodiment, Figure 3 As shown, the first adsorption member 312 is a suction cup connected to the vacuum generator, a first through hole is provided on the baffle body 311, the suction cup is arranged in the first through hole, and a first driving member is provided on the side of the baffle body 311 away from the stop surface 3111, and the output end of the first driving member is connected to the suction cup and can drive the suction cup to reciprocate along the Y direction, so that the first adsorption member 312 can be in a state of being retracted into the baffle body 311 or protruding from the stop surface 3111. Optionally, the first driving member can be a linear cylinder, etc. In other embodiments, the first driving member can be selected and set according to actual needs, and no specific limitation is made here. Furthermore, the winding mechanism 3 also includes a first driving assembly, which is arranged on the frame 7 and connected to the baffle body 311. The first driving assembly can drive the baffle body 311 to move up and down along the Z direction. The first driving assembly can be, but is not limited to, a structure of a motor and a screw nut.

[0070] In order to ensure that the coiling mechanism 3 can smoothly recycle the cut bundle 102, as shown in FIG. Figure 3As shown, the winding mechanism 3 also includes a first roller 33 and a second roller 34. The first roller 33 is rotatably arranged below the first bearing plane 111, and the second roller 34 is arranged on the baffle body 311 and located above the first adsorption member 312. The first roller 33 can be selectively retracted into the baffle body 311, or protrude from the stop surface 3111 and cooperate with the first roller 33. When the baffle body 311 is used to limit the workpiece 100, the second roller 34 is retracted into the baffle body 311; when the adsorption component 22 drives the bundle 102 to move to a position below the first bearing plane 111, the second roller 34 is located at the position of the protruding stop surface 3111, and the height of the second roller 34 is directly opposite to the first roller 33. Since the position of the first adsorption component 312 is lower than the second roller 34, the bundle 102 is clamped between the first roller 33 and the second roller 34 at this time, and then the first roller 33 and the second roller 34 are driven to move toward or rotate in opposite directions. At this time, the bundle 102 is gradually rolled to a position below the first roller 33 and the second roller 34 under the friction of the two rollers for recycling. In this embodiment, the second roller 34 is set so that the first adsorption component 312 can directly drive the bundle 102 to between the first roller 33 and the second roller 34, thereby ensuring that the bundle 102 can be smoothly recycled, and the structure is ingenious and reliable.

[0071] Specifically, in this embodiment, the first roller 33 is rotatably supported on the frame 7, a second through hole is provided on the baffle body 311, and a second driving member is provided on the side of the baffle body 311 away from the stop surface 3111, and the second driving member is connected to the second roller 34 and can drive the second roller 34 to move along the Y direction, so that the second roller 34 can extend from the second through hole to the stop surface 3111 or the second roller 34 can be retracted from the second through hole into the baffle body 311. Optionally, the second driving member can be a linear cylinder, etc. In other embodiments, the second driving member can be selected and set according to actual needs, and no specific limitation is made here. Preferably, the coiling mechanism 3 also includes a third driving member and a fourth driving member, and the third driving member and the fourth driving member can respectively drive the first roller 33 and the second roller 34 to rotate, thereby driving the strapping member 102 to move. In this embodiment, the third driving member and the fourth driving member can both be motors, and the first roller 33 and the second roller 34 can be driven to rotate by the motors. In other embodiments, the third driving member and the fourth driving member may be other components capable of outputting rotational motion as required, which is not limited here.

[0072] Preferably, if Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, the pushing mechanism 5 includes a pushing body 51 and a pushing plate 52 connected to the pushing body 51. When the workpiece 100 moves on the first conveying mechanism 1 to the cutting station, the pushing plate 52 moves along the X-direction to the two end positions of the first conveying mechanism 1 along the X-direction to avoid the movement of the workpiece 100 on the first conveying mechanism 1. When the workpiece 100 moves to the cutting station, the push plate 52 moves along the X direction to the back of the workpiece 100 and is opposite to the position where the workpiece body 101 is exposed from both ends of the binding member 102. At this time, the push plate 52 pushes the workpiece 100 along the Y direction, thereby pressing the workpiece 100 against the baffle body 311 to achieve the positioning of the workpiece 100; then the cutting mechanism 2 cuts the binding member 102; then, the baffle assembly 31 drives the binding member 102 to move below the first bearing plane 111 to avoid the position in front of the workpiece body 101; then, the push plate 52 can continue to push the workpiece body 101 along the Y direction, thereby causing the workpiece body 101 to move from the first bearing plane 111 to the transfer mechanism 4 connected to it.

[0073] Specifically, in this embodiment, a second driving assembly is provided on the frame 7, the output end of the second driving assembly is connected to the pushing body 51, and can drive the pushing body 51 to move along the Y direction. The second driving assembly can be, but is not limited to, a structure of a motor and a screw nut. Preferably, as Figure 4 As shown, two push plates 52 are provided on the push body 51, and the two push plates 52 can move toward each other to a preset position, so as to push the workpiece body 101 along the X direction to expose the two ends of the bundling member 102, so that the workpiece body 101 is more stably stressed during the pushing process, and the two push plates 52 can move away from each other to the two ends of the first conveying mechanism 1 along the X direction to avoid the conveying of the workpiece 100. In this embodiment, the pushing mechanism 5 also includes a fifth driving member, which is provided on the push body 51 and is used to drive the two push plates 52 to move. Optionally, the fifth driving member can be a clamping cylinder, and the two output ends of the clamping cylinder are respectively connected to the two push plates 52. In other embodiments, the movement of the two push plates 52 can also be driven by two straight lines, which is not limited here.

[0074] Further, such as Figure 4As shown, the pushing mechanism 5 also includes an auxiliary push plate 53, which is connected to the pushing plate 52 and is vertically arranged. The auxiliary push plate 53 can abut against the side wall of the workpiece 100 perpendicular to the X direction. When the two pushing plates 52 move toward each other, the auxiliary push plate 53 abuts against the side wall of the workpiece 100 perpendicular to the X direction, so that the position of the workpiece 100 along the X direction can be positioned and limited, further ensuring the position accuracy of the workpiece 100 at the cutting station and ensuring the accuracy of cutting. In this embodiment, one pushing plate 52 is connected to the auxiliary push plate 53, and the other pushing plate 52 is not provided with the auxiliary push plate 53. In other embodiments, the auxiliary push plates 53 can be provided on both pushing plates 52. The setting can be selected according to the needs, and it is not limited here.

[0075] Preferably, if Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, the cutting mechanism 2 includes a cutting frame 21, an adsorption assembly 22 and a cutter 23. The cutting frame 21 is arranged on the frame 7 and is located above the cutting station. The cutting frame 21 can move up and down along the Z direction. The adsorption assembly 22 is arranged on the cutting frame 21. The adsorption assembly 22 can adsorb the upper surface and / or side surface of the strapping 102 to form a gap between the strapping 102 and the workpiece body 101. The cutter 23 is arranged on the cutting frame 21. The cutter 23 can move along the X direction to cut off the strapping 102 at the corresponding position of the gap. When the workpiece 100 does not move to the cutting station, the cutting frame 21 drives the tool 23 and the adsorption component 22 to move upward along the Z direction to avoid it. When the workpiece 100 moves to the cutting station, the cutting frame 21 drives the tool 23 and the adsorption component 22 to move downward along the Z direction, and makes the adsorption component 22 contact with the binding member 102. At this time, the adsorption component 22 adsorbs the upper surface and / or side surface of the binding member 102 to form a gap between the binding member 102 and the workpiece body 101. At this time, the tool 23 moves along the X direction to easily cut off the binding member 102. Through the setting of the adsorption component 22, the tool 23 can be prevented from cutting the workpiece body 101.

[0076] Specifically, in this embodiment, if Figure 5As shown, the adsorption component 22 includes a second adsorption component 221 and a third adsorption component 222. Both the second adsorption component 221 and the third adsorption component 222 can be suction cups connected to the vacuum generator, and the opening of the second adsorption component 221 is set below and can adsorb the upper surface of the strapping component 102. The opening of the third adsorption component 222 faces the back of the workpiece 100 and can adsorb the front of the strapping component 102. By setting two adsorption components, it is possible to ensure that a sufficient gap is formed between the workpiece body 101 and the strapping component 102 to prevent the tool 23 from scratching the workpiece body 101. In other embodiments, the adsorption component 22 can also be provided with only the second adsorption component 221 or the third adsorption component 222, which can be selected according to actual needs and is not limited here. Preferably, the cutting mechanism 2 also includes a third drive component, which is arranged on the frame and the output end is connected to the cutting frame 21, and can drive the cutting frame 21 to move up and down along the Z direction. Specifically, the third drive component can be a linear cylinder, which has a simple structure and makes it easy to control the lifting and lowering movement of the cutting frame 21. In other embodiments, the third drive component can also be other components or components that can output linear motion, such as oil cylinders, which are not limited here. Further, the cutting mechanism 2 also includes a sixth drive member, which is arranged on the cutting frame 21 and is used to drive the tool 23 to move along the X direction. Specifically, the sixth drive member can be a cylinder, a linear motor, etc., which are not limited here.

[0077] Preferably, if Figure 5 As shown, the cutting mechanism 2 also includes a pressing component 24 disposed on the cutting frame 21. The pressing component 24 can press down the top surface of the workpiece body 101 so that the top surface of the workpiece body 101 is lower than the top surface of the binding member 102. Through the cooperation between the pressing component 24 and the adsorption component 22, the gap between the workpiece body 101 and the binding member 102 is made larger, further ensuring that the tool 23 will not cut the workpiece body 101. In this embodiment, the pressing component 24 includes a clamping member and a spring sleeved on the clamping member. By providing the spring, it is possible to avoid damage to the surface of the workpiece body 101 due to excessive clamping force of the pressing component 24. In other embodiments, the pressing component 24 can also be a hydraulic damper, etc., which is not limited here.

[0078] like Figure 2As shown, the loading arrangement also includes a second conveying mechanism 6, and the transfer mechanism 4 can convey the workpiece body 101 to the second conveying mechanism 6, and the second conveying mechanism 6 is used to convey the workpiece body 101 to the downstream production equipment. In this embodiment, the second conveying mechanism 6 extends along the Y direction, and in other embodiments, the conveying direction of the second conveying mechanism 6 can also be flexibly set according to actual needs. Preferably, the transfer mechanism 4 includes a first transfer component 41 and a second transfer component 42, and the pushing mechanism 5 pushes the workpiece body 101 onto the first transfer component 41, and the first transfer component 41 then transfers the workpiece body 101 to the second transfer component 42, and finally the second transfer component 42 places the workpiece body 101 on the second conveying mechanism 6. By setting the second transfer component 42 and the second transfer component 42, the workpiece body 101 can be more flexibly transferred.

[0079] Preferably, if Figure 6-Figure 8 As shown, the first transfer assembly 41 includes a first transfer body 411 and a first bearing plate 412. The first bearing plate 412 is horizontally arranged and connected to the first transfer body 411. The first transfer body 411 can drive the first bearing plate 412 to move along the Y direction, and make the first bearing plate 412 dock with the first bearing plane 111. The pushing mechanism 5 can push the workpiece body 101 onto the first bearing plate 412. It should be noted that the docking of the first bearing plate 412 with the first bearing plane 111 means that the first bearing plate 412 abuts against the end of the first conveying mechanism 1, and the upper surface of the first bearing plate 412 is flush with the first bearing plane 111 or slightly lower than the first bearing plane 111, thereby ensuring that the workpiece body 101 moves smoothly downward to the first transfer assembly 41 under the pushing action of the pushing mechanism 5.

[0080] Specifically, in the present embodiment, the first transfer assembly 41 further includes a fourth drive assembly, which is disposed on the frame 7 and can drive the first transfer body 411 to move along the Y direction. The fourth drive assembly may be, but is not limited to, a structure in which a motor cooperates with a screw nut, which is not limited here. In other embodiments, the first transfer body 411 may not move along the Y direction, but may move along other trajectories, as long as the first carrying plate 412 is ensured to eventually dock with the first carrying plane 111, and can be flexibly arranged according to the relative position between the first conveying mechanism 1 and the second conveying mechanism 6.

[0081] Preferably, if Figure 6As shown, the first transfer component 41 also includes a first vertical baffle 413, which is connected to the first transfer body 411, and the first vertical baffle 413 is located at one end of the first supporting plate 412 away from the first supporting plane 111, and the first vertical baffle 413 can block the workpiece body 101, and the first vertical baffle 413 can stop and limit the workpiece body 101, thereby preventing the workpiece body 101 from tipping over after falling on the first supporting plate 412, and ensuring that the workpiece body 101 remains neat.

[0082] When the pushing mechanism 5 pushes the workpiece body 101 onto the first supporting plate 412, part of the binding piece 102 may adhere to the bottom of the workpiece body 101 and be brought onto the first supporting plate 412. At this time, when the winding mechanism 3 rolls away the binding piece 102, it may cause the workpiece body 101 to move or even fall over.

[0083] Preferably, Figure 6 As shown, the first transport assembly 41 also includes a clamping assembly 414, which is arranged at the upper end of the first vertical baffle 413, and the clamping assembly 414 can move downward to clamp the workpiece body 101 on the first bearing plate 412. When the workpiece body 101 does not move onto the first bearing plate 412, the clamping assembly 414 moves upward to avoid the workpiece body 101. When the workpiece body 101 moves onto the first bearing plate 412, the clamping assembly 414 moves downward and clamps the upper surface of the workpiece body 101. At this time, even if the binding member 102 is attached to the first bearing plate 412, the clamping assembly 414 presses the workpiece body 101 on the first bearing plate 412 from top to bottom, so that the workpiece body 101 can be prevented from being dragged when the winding mechanism 3 rolls away the binding member 102, thereby preventing the workpiece body 101 from moving or tipping over.

[0084] Preferably, if Figure 6-Figure 8As shown, a socket 4121 is provided on the first supporting plate 412, and the second transfer component 42 includes a second transfer body 421 and a second supporting plate 422. The second supporting plate 422 includes a plurality of insert teeth 4221 arranged at intervals along the X direction. The second transfer body 421 can drive the second supporting plate 422 to move up and down along the Z direction, and make the second supporting plate 422 flush with the first supporting plate 412, and the insert teeth 4221 are inserted into the socket 4121 or located at the end of the first supporting plate 412 along the X direction. At this time, the second supporting plate 422 abuts against the bottom surface of the workpiece body 101, and then the first transfer component 41 continues to move along the Y direction until the first supporting plate 412 leaves the lower surface of the workpiece body 101, thereby realizing the handover of the first transfer component 41 and the second transfer component 42 to the workpiece body 101. During the handover of the workpiece body 101, there is no need to lift and keep the workpiece body 101 suspended, thereby avoiding the problem of scattering or collapse of the workpiece body 101 during the handover.

[0085] Specifically, in the present embodiment, a socket 4121 is provided in the middle of the first carrier plate 412, that is, the first carrier plate 412 is in a "U" shape, and the second carrier plate 422 includes three insert teeth 4221, and the three insert teeth 4221 form an "M"-shaped structure, wherein one insert tooth 4221 can be plugged into the socket 4121, and the other two insert teeth 4221 are respectively located at the two ends of the first carrier plate 412 along the X direction. In other embodiments, the number of the sockets 4121 on the first carrier plate 412 and the number of the insert teeth 4221 on the second carrier plate 422 can be set according to actual needs, as long as it is ensured that the first carrier plate 412 and the second carrier plate 422 can be plugged smoothly, and no limitation is made here. It can be understood that when the size of the workpiece body 101 changes, the number, width, etc. of the sockets 4121 and the insert teeth 4221 can be adjusted according to the actual size of the workpiece body 101.

[0086] Preferably, if Figure 7 As shown, the second transport assembly 42 also includes a second vertical baffle 423, which is connected to the second transport body 421 and is located at one end of the second bearing plate 422 where the inserting gear 4221 is not provided. The second vertical baffle 423 can block the workpiece body 101, and the second vertical baffle 423 can play a role of stopping and limiting the workpiece body 101, avoiding the problem of the workpiece body 101 falling on the second bearing plate 422 and ensuring that the workpiece body 101 remains neat. It should be noted that the second vertical baffle 423 can be a flat plate structure, which can be composed of a number of vertically extending rods, and the several rods together play a role of stopping the workpiece body 101. Further, the second transport assembly 42 also includes a fifth drive assembly, which is arranged on the frame 7 and can drive the second transport body 421 to move up and down along the Z direction. The fifth drive assembly can be, but is not limited to, a structure in which a motor cooperates with a screw nut, which is not limited here.

[0087] Preferably, if Fig. 9 and Fig.10 As shown, the second conveying mechanism 6 includes at least two conveying belt assemblies 61 spaced apart, and the second transfer body 421 can drive the second carrying plate 422 to move downward, so that the inserting teeth 4221 are inserted between the conveying belt assemblies 61 or to the side of the conveying belt assemblies 61. In this embodiment, the second conveying mechanism 6 includes two conveying belt assemblies 61 spaced apart, and after the second carrying plate 422 moves downward, the middle inserting teeth 4221 is located between the two conveying belt assemblies 61, and the inserting teeth 4221 on both sides are respectively located on the outsides of the two conveying belt assemblies 61, that is, the second carrying plate 422 and the end of the second conveying mechanism 6 form a Fig.10 In the interlocking structure shown, the workpiece body 101 on the second carrier plate 422 falls on the two conveyor belt assemblies 61, and then the second carrier plate 422 continues to move downward for a certain distance, so that the upper surface of the second carrier plate 422 is slightly lower than the upper surface of the conveyor belt assembly 61. At this time, when the workpiece body 101 is transferred from the second transfer assembly 42 to the second conveying mechanism 6, the handover process between the workpiece body 101 and the second conveying mechanism 6 and the second carrier plate 422 does not need to be lifted and the workpiece body 101 is suspended, thereby avoiding the problem of the workpiece body 101 being scattered or collapsed during the handover process. Finally, the workpiece body 101 can move with the conveyor belt assembly 61 to the downstream production equipment.
