[0034] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0035] Please refer to Figures 1 to 6 A continuous loading assembly for lifting trays used in plastic back covers is supported by a frame 101. A discharge tray conveyor 102 and a collection tray conveyor 103 are located on either side of the top of the frame 101, each responsible for placing and collecting trays. A discharge bin 104 and a collection bin 105 are mounted on top of each of these two conveyor racks to store the trays.
[0036] Mounting blocks 125 are symmetrically fixed to the top of the collection tray conveyor frame 103. These mounting blocks are cleverly designed with first right-angled trapezoidal blocks 126 that mate with the edges of the material tray 107. One end of these right-angled trapezoidal blocks is connected to the mounting blocks via springs 127, allowing them to move flexibly when pressure is applied and quickly return to their original position when the pressure is released. A collection cylinder 143 is fixed to the collection tray conveyor frame, its output shaft connected to the collection tray 144. The cylinder's expansion and contraction drive the collection tray's rise and fall.
[0037] Feed tray 107 as Figure 7 As shown, an outwardly protruding edge is provided at the top edge, and an array of accommodating grooves are provided on the top of the material tray 107 for accommodating plastic back covers, which facilitates large-scale automated assembly of plastic back covers.
[0038] To ensure smooth material tray transportation, the two side walls of the collecting tray conveyor frame 103 are rotatably connected to a second driving pulley 137 and a second driven pulley 138, which are tightly connected via a second belt 139. A second conveying motor 140 is fixed to the two side walls of the discharge tray conveyor frame 102, and the output shaft of the motor is connected to one end of the second driving pulley to provide power for the rotation of the belt.
[0039] When the collecting cylinder 143 is activated, it drives the collecting tray 144 upward, lifting the trays on the second belt 139. As the trays rise, their edges press against the first rectangular block 126, compressing the spring 127. Once the edge of a tray passes the rectangular block, the collecting tray 144 continues to rise, lifting all the trays in the collection bin 105 a certain distance. At this point, the rectangular block returns to its original position under the action of the spring. When the collecting cylinder drives the collecting trays downward, the edge of the tray at the bottom layer is blocked by the rectangular block, ensuring that the trays can be collected one by one.
[0040] Atop the tray conveyor frame 102, symmetrically secured are first connecting plates 128, with horizontal cylinders 129 mounted on one side of these connecting plates. The outputs of the horizontal cylinders are connected to second connecting plates 130, while a vertical cylinder 131 is secured to the top of the second connecting plates. The outputs of the vertical cylinders are connected to second right-angled trapezoidal blocks 132 that mate with the edges of the tray 107, supporting and moving the tray.
[0041] The two side walls of the unloading tray conveyor frame 102 are similarly rotatably connected to a first driving pulley 133 and a first driven pulley 134, which are connected by a first belt 135. A first conveying motor 136 is fixed to the two side walls of the unloading tray conveyor frame, providing power to the first driving pulleys. A discharge cylinder 141 is fixed to the unloading tray conveyor frame, and its output shaft is connected to the unloading tray 142, used to raise and lower the tray.
[0042] During the unloading process, the second rectangular block 132 supports the edge of the trays at the bottom of the unloading bin 104. When unloading is needed, the unloading cylinder 141 drives the unloading bin 142 upward, contacting the bottom of the tray at the bottom and lifting all trays. Subsequently, the horizontal cylinder 129 drives the vertical cylinder 131 and the second rectangular block outward, moving the rectangular block away from the edge of the trays. Next, the vertical cylinder 131 drives the rectangular block upward, bringing it directly over the trays at the second-to-last layer. The horizontal cylinder then drives the rectangular block again, returning it to below the tray edge. Finally, the unloading cylinder 141 lowers the unloading bin, moving the trays at the bottom layer onto the first belt. Under the influence of gravity, the remaining trays in the unloading bin move downward, contacting the second rectangular block. The vertical cylinder then drives the rectangular block downward, preparing for the next unloading.
[0043] To automatically transfer the material trays from the collection bin to the discharge bin, a mounting plate 106 is installed on one side of the frame 101. The mounting plate is designed with a conveyor assembly 108 and a U-shaped groove 109 for conveying the material trays. The conveyor assembly includes a sleeve 110 that slides on the U-shaped groove and a drive device 111 that drives the sleeve.
[0044] The drive mechanism consists of an electric motor 119, a driving pinion 120, a driven gear 122, a rotating shaft 121, and a rocker arm 123. The motor is fixed to one side of the mounting plate, with its output shaft connected to the driving pinion. The driving pinion meshes with the driven gear, driving the rotating shaft and the rocker arm. A slideway 124 is designed on the rocker arm, and one end of the sleeve's bar portion 113 is positioned within the slideway, allowing the sleeve to slide along the U-shaped groove.
[0045] The sleeve 110 consists of an annular portion 112 and a strip-shaped portion 113. The annular portion is symmetrically designed with a slideway 114, into which slides a rectangular trapezoidal magnet block 115, which supports the edge of the material tray. The collection tray conveyor frame and the discharge tray conveyor frame are respectively fixed with a square magnet 116 and a strip-shaped magnet block 117, which match the rectangular trapezoidal magnet block.
[0046] When a material tray needs to be transferred from the collection bin to the discharge bin, the motor 119 drives the driving pinion, which in turn drives the driven gear, the rotating shaft, and the rocker arm. This causes the sleeve to slide along the U-shaped groove. During this sliding process, the rectangular trapezoidal magnet blocks contact the edges of the trays and retract along the chute. When the annular portion moves to a position directly opposite the bottommost tray, the repulsive force of the square magnets causes the rectangular trapezoidal magnet blocks to reposition themselves to face the bottom edge of the bottommost tray. The annular portion then rises along the collection bin, lifting all the trays together. It then moves along the path of the U-shaped groove into the discharge bin. When the annular portion moves to a position directly opposite the bar magnet blocks, although there is an attractive force between the bar magnet blocks and the rectangular trapezoidal magnet blocks, the rectangular trapezoidal magnet blocks contact the bottom edge of the bottommost tray and the larger mass of the trays cause the rectangular trapezoidal magnet blocks to move along the chute. When the bottommost tray within the annular portion contacts the topmost tray in the discharge bin, the friction between the rectangular trapezoidal magnet blocks and the tray edges instantly disappears. At this time, there is an attractive force between the bar magnet block and the right-angled trapezoidal magnet block, which makes the right-angled trapezoidal magnet block move along the chute. When the ring part rises in the opposite direction, the edge of the material tray will be freed from the restraint of the right-angled trapezoidal magnet block, and the material tray will remain in the discharge bin.
[0047] Furthermore, the inner wall of the annular portion mates with the outer walls of the discharge and collection bins, allowing the trays to be neatly stacked. A stop plate 118 is also fixed to the annular portion to control the position of the trays. The strip portion has a square cross-section within the U-shaped groove and a circular cross-section within the slideway. This design ensures that the sleeve can move smoothly along the trajectory of the U-shaped groove.

Any equivalent structure or equivalent process transformation made using the contents of the present invention description and drawings, or directly or indirectly applied in other related technical fields, are also included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.
