The feeding tube 31 is arranged through the sensor plate 39, and the outer side of the cylinder 36 is slidably connected to the slide plate 35, and the front end of the slide plate 35 is connected to the positioning fixing plate 37.

[0029] In this specific embodiment, the blanking clamping assembly 4 includes a stepper motor 41, a cover plate 42, a main synchronous belt 47 wheel 43, an air claw 44, a Z-axis slide 45, a slave synchronous belt 47 wheel 46, a synchronous belt 47, a guide rail 48 and a Z-axis main board 49; the stepper motor 41 is installed on the upper part of the Z-axis main board 49, and the output shaft of the stepper motor 41 passes through the Z-axis main board 49, and the output shaft is provided with a main synchronous belt 47 wheel 43, and the Z-axis main board 49 is provided with a slave synchronous belt 47 wheel 46 at the lower part of the other side of the stepper motor 41.

A pushing rod 94 is provided at the output end of the pushing cylinder 93. During operation, when the tungsten rod whose diameter has been measured by the laser diameter measuring device 10 comes to the corresponding feed sleeve 521, the pushing cylinder 93 is driven to push out the pushing rod 94 to press the tungsten rod down, causing it to fall.

[0034] When this mechanism is working, the unsorted tungsten rods 8 are uniformly placed in the vibrating disk 1. Through the operation of the vibrating disk 1, the tungsten rods 8 enter the unloading tube 31 of the tungsten rod unloading mechanism 3 along the unloading hose. When they reach the positioning and fixing plate 37, they are supported. Then the laser sensor 33 obtains the falling tungsten rod 8 and obtains its size parameters. Then the air claw 44 of the unloading clamping assembly 4 clamps the tungsten rod 8 under the drive of the Z-axis slide 45. Then, the cylinder 36 controls the slide 35 to slide backward, and then drags the positioning and fixing plate 37 to release the tungsten rod 8, allowing the air claw 44 to clamp the tungsten rod 8. Then, the dividing plate 52 rotates to the appropriate angle, catches the tungsten rods 8 of different specifications and places them in the feed sleeve 521. When the dividing plate 52 continues to rotate, when it reaches the corresponding separation box, the tungsten rod 8 falls from the feed sleeve 521 into the separation box 6, completing a round of automatic unloading and sorting. Then continue to repeat the above process.

[0035] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the present invention, and are not intended to limit the present invention. Ordinary technicians in the relevant technical field may make various changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, all equivalent technical solutions also fall within the scope of the present invention. The scope of patent protection of the present invention should be defined by the claims.
