The injection-molded spoon assembly includes several spoons arranged in a ring and a sprue ring located in the center of each spoon and connecting the spoon handles. The spoon assembly used in this invention contains 28 spoons.

[0019] In the above technical solution: the transfer mechanism 4 is responsible for moving the spoon assembly from the receiving and moving mechanism 3 to the turntable mechanism 5, and cutting the spoon assembly. The transfer mechanism 4 includes a transfer plate 42, a transfer motor 44, a material-forming moving assembly, a material-distributing moving assembly, and a transfer column 41 fixed on the frame platform 1. The transfer plate 42 is fixed to the top of the transfer column 41. A transfer guide block 43 is fixed on the transfer plate 42.

The material transfer motor 44 and the material lifting cylinder 410 drive the spoon assembly picked up by the material suction cups 414 to move to the turntable mechanism 5. In this embodiment, the number of material suction cups 414 is twice the number of spoons in the spoon assembly, and the part picked up by the material suction cups is the handle of the spoon.

[0021] In the above technical solution, the material distribution moving assembly further includes a material distribution lifting cylinder 417, a material cutting lifting cylinder 423, and a material distribution support plate 415 fixed to the bottom of the material distribution moving plate 49.

The cylinder of the material distribution lifting cylinder 417 is fixed on the material distribution support plate 415. A first piston rod connector 433 is fixed on the material distribution pressure plate 416 through a first connector plate. The piston rod of the material distribution lifting cylinder 417 passes through the material distribution support plate 415 and is fixed to the first piston rod connector 433. The material distribution lifting cylinder 417 drives the material distribution pressure plate 416 to move up and down. The material distribution support plate 415 is also equipped with a material distribution lifting limit post 418 and material distribution guide sleeves 419 located on both sides of the material distribution lifting limit post 418. The material distribution guide post 420 is slidably disposed within the material distribution guide sleeve 419. The material distribution buffer mounting plate 421 is equipped with a material distribution lifting buffer 422. The material distribution lifting buffer 422 cooperates with the material distribution lifting limit post 418 to limit the downward movement of the material distribution pressure plate 416.

[0022] In the above technical solution: the bottom of the material distribution plate 416 is fixed with a material pressing block 424 and a material distribution suction cup mounting plate 425. The material pressing block 424 is a hollow cylinder. The bottom of the material distribution suction cup mounting plate 425 is equipped with a number of material distribution suction cups 426. The number of material distribution suction cups 426 is half the number of material distribution suction cups 414. The material distribution suction cups 426 are responsible for picking up half a circle of spoons, which is equivalent to half the number of spoons.

[0023] In the above technical solution: a second piston rod connector 435 is fixed to the material distribution plate 416 via a second connector plate 434, and the piston rod of the cutting lifting cylinder 423 is fixed to the second piston rod connector 435. A cutting cylinder plate 429 is provided at the bottom of the cutting lifting cylinder 423, and a cutting blade connecting block 427 is provided inside the pressing block 424.

A cutting guide sleeve 430 is also installed on the material distribution plate 416, and the cutting guide post 431 is slidably disposed inside the cutting guide sleeve 430. The cutting lifting cylinder 423 drives the cutting blade 428 to move up and down relative to the material distribution plate 416 and the pressing block 424.

[0024] The working process of the present invention is as follows: the receiving and moving mechanism 3 drives the spoon assembly after injection molding to move, the material transfer motor 44 and the material lifting cylinder 410 drive the material suction cup 414 to move, the material suction cup 414 picks up the spoon assembly on the receiving and moving mechanism 3, and then the material suction cup 414 moves to the top of the turntable mechanism 5 and releases the spoon assembly, and the spoon assembly is positioned by the turntable mechanism 5.

[0025] The material transfer motor 44 and the material distribution lifting cylinder 417 drive the material distribution pressure plate 416 and the material distribution suction cup 426 to move downwards. The material distribution suction cup 426 picks up the spoons in the upper half of the turntable mechanism 5, which is equivalent to half of the number of spoons. The bottom of the pressure block 424 presses down on the handle end of each spoon. During the above process, the cutting lifting cylinder 423 and the material distribution lifting cylinder 417 synchronously drive the material distribution pressure plate 416 to move downwards. The cutting blade 428 retracts into the pressure block 424, and the cutting lifting cylinder 423 and the material distribution pressure plate 416 are separated by a certain distance. Then, the material distribution lifting cylinder 417 and the material distribution pressure plate 416 remain stationary, and the cutting lifting cylinder 423 begins to move downwards to shorten the distance between itself and the material distribution pressure plate 416. At the same time, the cutting blade 428 is driven by the cutting lifting cylinder 423 to extend out of the bottom of the pressure block 424 and cut the sprue ring of the spoon assembly, so that each spoon is separated from the sprue ring. The material transfer motor 44 and the material distribution lifting cylinder 417 drive the material distribution suction cup 426 to move the already cut half-circle spoon to the transfer mechanism 6.

[0026] The transfer mechanism 6 drives the cut spoons to be arranged in a straight line. The feeding mechanism 7 picks up the spoons on the transfer mechanism 6 and moves them to the finished product moving mechanism 8. The finished product moving mechanism 8 moves the spoons towards the finished product unloading mechanism 9. The finished product unloading mechanism 9 picks up the spoons on the finished product moving mechanism 8 and moves them to the next station.

[0027] The preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above. It should be understood that those skilled in the art can make numerous modifications and variations based on the concept of the present invention without creative effort. Therefore, all technical solutions that can be obtained by those skilled in the art based on the concept of the present invention through logical analysis, reasoning, or limited experimentation on the basis of existing technology should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
