First, the cross bar is pushed to the middle position of the top of the rotating mechanism, and the position of the large and small holes is captured by a camera at the same time. Under the action of a servo motor, the polyurethane wheel is driven to rotate by the first pulley and the first belt, and the friction force of the polyurethane wheel drives the cross bar to rotate. After recognition by the camera, the rotation stops within the allowable error range of 10%, so that the small hole of the cross bar is approximately perpendicular to the rotating plate. Then, under the action of a reduction motor, the cross bar is sent to the top of the fixed rod via the second pulley, the second belt, the rotating arm and the flipping plate, and then the cross bar slides between the two V-blocks and is automatically adjusted to the position under the action of the cross bar so that the large hole of the cross bar faces downward, and the positioning is completed, thereby improving the degree of automation of front-end loading, minimizing the labor consumption in the loading link, improving the success rate of intelligent pendants, and reducing the difficulty of hanging. The large and small hole recognition of the cross bar is designed as an image algorithm, which is intended to capture the position of the large and small holes, and the servo motor is controlled to start and stop by electrical signals to achieve rough positioning, automatic positioning and loading operations, reduce labor costs, and improve discharge efficiency, which is worthy of vigorous promotion.
