The chips sliced ​​by the slicing conveying mechanism are transported to the defective material discharge mechanism for inspection through multiple suction nozzles on a straight line. The chips at the discharge mechanism are transported to the cam flipping mechanism, and the chips at the cam flipping mechanism are transported to the material collection mechanism. The material collection lifting mechanism is located directly below the material collection mechanism.

[0038] Specifically, the chip separation and transfer mechanism realizes chip separation and transfer, and its structure is as follows: Figures 5-6 As shown, it includes a backboard 21, an upper conveying assembly 22 fixed on the backboard, a lower conveying assembly 23, an upper slice assembly 24, a lower slice assembly 25, a drive motor 26 and a separation conveying assembly 27, the upper conveying assembly includes an upper driving wheel 221, an upper tensioning wheel 222, an upper belt 223, and three upper idler wheels 224.

When the chip is not transmitted, the lower roller acts as an ordinary roller, and when the chip is transmitted, the lower roller serves as the bottom support during slicing, and the upper pressure roller applies downward pressure. Due to the eccentric setting of the two, the slicing can be achieved. After slicing, the upper pressure wheel is lifted, and the transmission force of the upper belt and the lower belt transmits the slicing chip backward.

[0042] The separation and conveying assembly includes a mounting bracket 271, a conveying chain 272 wrapped around the outside of the mounting bracket, a cover plate 273 fixed above the mounting bracket for covering part of the conveying chain, a separation cylinder 274 fixed on the cover plate, and a laser detector 275 fixed at the end of the mounting bracket.

The rotating servo motor is installed on the flip fixing seat through a motor seat 425 and is connected to the synchronous wheel with a synchronous belt 426. The flip servo motor drives the rotating shaft to rotate, while the cam is fixed. A circle of track grooves 427 is provided on the outer wall of the cam. One section of the track groove is close to one end of the cam, and the track groove on the opposite surface is close to the other end of the cam.

[0045] The rotating bearing assembly includes a rotating plate 431 and a chip positioning bearing seat 432. One end of the chip positioning bearing seat is fixed at the center position of the rotating plate and is vertically connected to it. The other end is provided with a chip placement groove 433.

The sensing assembly includes a U-shaped frame 451 and a photoelectric sensor 452 installed on the U-shaped frame. The end of the rotating plate is installed with a sensing sheet 434. When the sensing sheet blocks the photoelectric sensor, it indicates that the rotation is in place, and the rotating motor is controlled to stop rotating.

[0046] As the rotating shaft rotates, the cam follower at the end of the linkage rod moves along the track groove, and at the same time drives the linkage rod and the L-shaped cover to move telescopically.

At the same time, a second slot 551 is also provided at the bottom of the magazine clamp, and a support plate 552 is provided inside the magazine clamp. The support plate is connected to the material receiving and lifting mechanism. When the magazine clamp initially receives materials, the support plate is located at the top of the magazine clamp.

A pin (not shown) is provided on the part so that the pin can be inserted into the end of the push rod to achieve the connection between the two. A second sensing piece 77 is provided on the side of the sliding plate corresponding to the photoelectric sensor. When the second sensing piece moves to the position corresponding to the top photoelectric sensor, it means that the support plate is at the top of the warehouse clamp. When the second sensing piece moves to the second to last photoelectric sensor below, it means that it is full and needs to be replaced. Then the push rod drops again to the second photoelectric sensor at the bottom. At this time, the upper end of the push rod is separated from the support plate and also leaves the second slot. The multi-station warehouse clamp seat can move the next empty warehouse clamp to the top of the push rod for unloading of the next warehouse clamp.
