[0006] On the basis of the above technical scheme, the present application can also be improved as follows.
[0007] Further, the first connecting plate is provided with a connecting hole matched with the first telescopic rod, and the inner wall of the connecting hole is rotatably connected to the first telescopic rod through a bearing, so that the first connecting plate can drive the first telescopic rod to extend and retract without affecting the rotation of the first telescopic rod.
[0008] Further, the second connecting plate is provided with a placement hole matched with the second telescopic rod, and the inner wall of the placement hole is rotatably connected to the second telescopic rod through a bearing, so that the second connecting plate can drive the second telescopic rod to extend and retract without affecting the rotation of the second telescopic rod.
[0009] Further, the first telescopic rod is fixedly connected with a disc-shaped limiting block, and the inner wall of the first telescopic cylinder is provided with a sliding groove matched with the disc-shaped limiting block, so that the first telescopic rod can rotate stably in the first telescopic cylinder.
[0010] Further, the second telescopic rod is fixedly installed with a rectangular limiting block, and the inner wall of the second telescopic cylinder is provided with a limiting groove matched with the rectangular limiting block, so that the second telescopic cylinder can drive the second telescopic rod to rotate synchronously when the second telescopic cylinder rotates.
[0011] Furthermore, the bottom of the mounting plate is provided with a pressing block adapted to the pressing sensor. The pressing sensor is connected to the forklift AGV controller. When the pressing sensor is pressed and released, it can send a signal to the forklift AGV controller, so that the forklift AGV can sense whether the reel is loaded.
[0012] Furthermore, the top of the bracket is provided with an arc-shaped groove that matches the spool, so that the bracket can stably support the spool.
[0013] Furthermore, slots adapted to the first and second positioning blocks are respectively provided on both sides of the coil, so that the first and second positioning blocks can stably clamp the coil.
[0014] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: This invention provides a power-operated wire feeding machine for docking AGVs, which has the following advantages:
[0015] 1. When the wire reel needs to be loaded, the forklift AGV can transport the wire reel and lift it up, so that the first and second positioning blocks can be inserted into the slots on both sides of the wire reel, so that the wire reel can be stably clamped. The forks can then start to reset. When the forks fall to the return spring, they can drive the mounting plate to disengage from the pressing sensor. The pressing sensor can send a signal to the forklift AGV. When the forklift AGV receives the disengagement signal, it can leave and reset. This effectively reduces the time required for the power wire feeding machine to load the wire reel, reduces manpower, and thus effectively improves work efficiency.
[0016] 2. The drive motor rotates the No. 2 synchronous pulley, which in turn drives the No. 1 synchronous pulley to rotate synchronously via the synchronous belt. This allows the No. 2 telescopic drum to rotate within the No. 2 frame. The No. 2 telescopic drum can then drive the No. 2 telescopic rod to rotate via the rectangular limit block. When the No. 2 telescopic rod rotates, it can drive the clamped reel to rotate via the No. 2 positioning block and the rubber block on the outer wall of the positioning tray, thereby releasing the wire.
[0017] 3. When the wire reel needs to be unloaded, the forks of the forklift AGV are inserted into the wire feeding machine frame and the forks rise until the wire reel is pressed down on the bracket, which causes the mounting plate to squeeze the pressure sensor. When the pressure sensor is pressed, it can send a signal to the forklift AGV. The first and second cylinders are then activated to retract, which will cause the first and second positioning blocks to detach from the wire reel. The forklift AGV then starts to lower the forks, which will cause the wire reel to detach from the wire feeding machine frame for transportation. The entire process does not require manual handling.
[0018] 4. This type of power wire feeding machine structure can be docked with a dedicated AGV, which facilitates the loading, unloading and transportation of wire reels. Compared with existing wire feeding machines, it can achieve rapid detachment and loading of wire reels, effectively improving work efficiency and saving labor costs.

[0035] Preferably, the first connecting plate 6 has a connecting hole that matches the first telescopic rod 8. The inner wall of the connecting hole is rotatably connected to the first telescopic rod 8 through a bearing, so that the first connecting plate 6 can drive the first telescopic rod 8 to extend and retract without affecting the rotation of the first telescopic rod 8.
[0036] Preferably, the second connecting plate 27 has a mounting hole that matches the second telescopic rod 12, and the inner wall of the mounting hole is rotatably connected to the second telescopic rod 12 through a bearing, so that the second connecting plate 27 can drive the second telescopic rod 12 to extend and retract without affecting the rotation of the second telescopic rod 12.
[0037] Preferably, the first telescopic rod 8 is fixedly connected to a disc-shaped limiting block 10, and the inner wall of the first telescopic cylinder 7 is provided with a sliding groove that matches the disc-shaped limiting block 10, so that the first telescopic rod 8 can rotate smoothly inside the first telescopic cylinder 7.

[0042] The specific working principle and usage method of this invention are as follows: When it is necessary to load the wire reel, the wire reel 24 can be mounted on the forks 20 of the forklift AGV2. The bracket 23 can support the wire reel 24. When it reaches the wire feeding machine frame 1, it is parallel to the opening of the wire feeding machine frame 1 and inserted into the inner wall. The forklift AGV2 is started to raise the forks 20 until the two ends of the wire reel 24 are aligned with the first positioning block 9 and the second positioning block 13. The first cylinder 5 and the second cylinder 26 are started to respectively engage the first positioning block 9 and the second positioning block 13 into the slots on both sides of the wire reel 24. The rubber block 25 of the positioning tray 14 can tightly fit the wire reel 24, so that the wire reel 24 can be stably clamped. The forks 20 can then start to reset. When the forks 20 fall to the return spring 21, they can drive the mounting plate 22 to disengage from the pressing sensor 28. The pressing sensor 28 can send a signal to the forklift AGV2. When the forklift AGV2 receives the disengagement signal, it can leave and reset. The rotation of the second synchronous pulley 18 by the machine 17 can drive the first synchronous pulley 16 to rotate synchronously through the synchronous belt 19, so that the second telescopic cylinder 11 can rotate within the second frame 4. The second telescopic cylinder 11 can then drive the second telescopic rod 12 to rotate through the rectangular limit block 15. When the second telescopic rod 12 rotates, it can drive the clamped wire reel 24 to rotate through the second positioning block 13 and the rubber block 25 on the outer wall of the positioning tray 14, thereby releasing the wire. When it is necessary to unload the reel, the forks 20 of the forklift AGV2 are inserted into the wire feeding machine frame 1 and then the forks 20 rise until the wire reel 24 presses down on the bracket 23, which drives the mounting plate 22 to squeeze the pressing sensor 28. When the pressing sensor 28 is pressed, it can send a signal to the forklift AGV2, which will start the first cylinder 5 and the second cylinder 26 to retract, thereby driving the first positioning block 9 and the second positioning block 13 to disengage from the wire reel 24. The forklift AGV2 starts the forks 20 to descend, thereby driving the wire reel 24 to disengage from the wire feeding machine frame 1 for transportation.
