[0028] The feeding equipment 100 includes a feeding platform 10, a loading mechanism 20, a feeding mechanism 30 and a blanking mechanism 40. The loading mechanism 20, the feeding mechanism 30 and the blanking mechanism 40 are all arranged on the feeding platform 10, so that the feeding equipment 100 can be modularly arranged, wherein the loading mechanism 20 is used to batch supply the first workpiece 200, the feeding mechanism 30 is used to move multiple first workpieces 200 to positions corresponding to multiple placement positions 301 of the second workpiece 300, and the blanking mechanism 40 is used to carry the second workpiece 300 and make the first workpiece 200 fall into the corresponding placement position 301 of the second workpiece 300.

[0029] Please join Figure 3 The feeding mechanism 20 is disposed on the feeding platform 10, and the feeding mechanism 20 includes a plurality of feeding members 21 which are arranged at intervals and can move synchronously, and each feeding member 21 is used to accommodate a plurality of first workpieces 200. In this embodiment, the plurality of feeding members 21 move up and down synchronously.

[0030] Please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5The feeding mechanism 30 includes a vibration body 31 and a feeding tray 32. The vibration body 31 is arranged on the feeding platform 10 and is spaced apart from the loading mechanism 20. The feeding tray 32 is arranged on the top of the vibration body 31. One end of the feeding tray 32 extends to the loading mechanism 20 and is connected to multiple loading parts 21. The other end of the feeding tray 32 is provided with multiple blanking holes 321, and each blanking hole 321 is a through hole. The feeding tray 32 is provided with multiple feeding grooves 322, and the multiple feeding grooves 322 are spaced apart. The multiple feeding grooves 322 are respectively arranged in a one-to-one correspondence with the multiple blanking holes 321 and the multiple loading parts 21. One end of each feeding groove 322 extends to one end of the feeding tray 32 and receives the first workpiece 200 supplied by the corresponding loading part 21. The other end of each feeding groove 322 extends to the corresponding blanking hole 321 and is connected to the corresponding blanking hole 321. Among them, the vibration body 31 can be a vibrator, and the vibration body 31 drives the supply tray 32 to vibrate through vibration. The supply tray 32 vibrates to make the first workpiece 200 in the supply trough 322 move toward the corresponding blanking hole 321 and move into the blanking hole 321. Each loading piece 21 can supply multiple first workpieces 200 to the corresponding supply trough 322, that is, there will be multiple first workpieces 200 in each supply trough 322 at the same time, that is, multiple first workpieces 200 are queued in one supply trough 322 and moved to the corresponding blanking hole 321.

[0031] Please refer to Figure 6 The blanking mechanism 40 includes a supporting component 41, which is arranged on the feeding platform 10 and placed below the feeding tray 32, that is, the supporting component 41 is placed below the multiple blanking holes 321, and the supporting component 41 has an installation position 411 for supporting the second workpiece 300, wherein the multiple blanking holes 321 correspond one-to-one to the multiple placement positions 301 of the second workpiece 300, so as to allow the first workpiece 200 passing through each blanking hole 321 to fall to the corresponding placement position 301, which can also be understood as the projection of the blanking hole 321 in the vertical direction overlaps with the corresponding placement position 301. When the first workpiece 200 moves into the blanking hole 321, the first workpiece 200 can pass through the blanking hole 321 under the action of gravity and fall vertically into the corresponding placement position 301 of the second workpiece 300. It can be understood that when the first workpiece 200 moves into the drop hole 321 , the first workpiece 200 can also be subjected to the thrust force and gravity to vertically fall into the corresponding placement position 301 of the second workpiece 300 .

[0032] When the feeding equipment 100 provided in this embodiment is actually used, the second workpiece 300 is placed on the installation position 411 of the supporting component 41 of the blanking mechanism 40, and multiple first workpieces 200 are placed on the multiple loading parts 21 of the loading mechanism 20. The multiple loading parts 21 of the loading mechanism 20 move to the position docking with the feeding tray 32 and supply the first workpiece 200 to the multiple feeding grooves 322 of the feeding tray 32 respectively. The vibration body 31 vibrates the feeding tray 32 so that the multiple first workpieces 200 move along their respective corresponding feeding grooves 322 to the corresponding blanking holes 321. After the multiple first workpieces 200 are respectively moved to the corresponding blanking holes 321, the first workpiece 200 passes through the corresponding blanking holes 321 and vertically falls into the corresponding placement position 301 of the second workpiece 300, thereby realizing the corresponding placement of the multiple first workpieces 200 in the multiple placement positions 301 of the second workpiece 300, and realizing the assembly of the first workpiece 200 and the second workpiece 300.

[0033] In this embodiment, the feeding platform 10 includes a top plate 11, a bottom plate 12, a plurality of support columns 13 and a plurality of support blocks 14. The top plate 11 and the bottom plate 12 are arranged at intervals from top to bottom. The plurality of support columns 13 are arranged at intervals and are all connected between the top plate 11 and the bottom plate 12. The plurality of support blocks 14 are arranged at intervals and are all arranged on the side of the bottom plate 12 away from the top plate 11. The plurality of support blocks 14 are used to support the bottom plate 12, the support columns 13 and the top plate 11. Among them, the loading mechanism 20 is arranged on the top plate 11, the bottom plate 12 and the support columns 13, the feeding mechanism 30 is arranged on the top plate 11, and the blanking mechanism 40 is arranged on the top plate 11. In this way, by setting the specific structure of the above-mentioned feeding platform 10, the installation of the loading mechanism 20, the feeding mechanism 30 and the blanking mechanism 40 is realized, so that the feeding device 100 has a compact structure and high stability.

[0034] In this embodiment, one end of the feed tray 32 has a plurality of receiving portions 323 arranged at intervals, and the plurality of receiving portions 323 correspond one-to-one to the plurality of loading parts 21. One end of each feed trough 322 extends to the corresponding receiving portion 323. Each loading part 21 is provided with a receiving groove 211, and the receiving groove 211 is used to accommodate the first workpiece 200. The receiving portion 323 is docked with the corresponding loading part 21 to connect the feed trough 322 with the corresponding receiving groove 211. The feeding mechanism 20 also includes a material box 22, a return material piece 23 and a power piece 24. The material box 22 is roughly a box structure with an open top. The material box 22 is arranged on the top plate 11 of the feeding platform 10. The return material piece 23 is arranged in the material box 22 and abuts against the bottom of multiple receiving parts 323 of the feeding tray 32. The return material piece 23 is provided with multiple return material chutes 231 arranged at intervals. The multiple return material chutes 231 and the multiple receiving parts 323 of the feeding tray 32 are respectively staggered. The power piece 24 can be a cylinder. The power piece 24 is arranged on the bottom plate 12 of the feeding platform 10 and is connected to multiple feeding pieces 21. The power piece 24 is used to drive multiple feeding pieces 21 to move up and down and pass through the box bottom 221 of the material box 22. Multiple feeding pieces 21 slide and abut against the return material piece 23. In this way, by setting the above-mentioned receiving portion 323, material box 22, return material piece 23 and power piece 24, a batch of first workpieces 200 are put into the material box 22, and the power piece 24 drives the multiple loading pieces 21 to move upward and makes the loading pieces 21 move against the return material piece 23. Each loading piece 21 lifts up the multiple first workpieces 200 during the upward movement, and the multiple first workpieces 200 are appropriately arranged in the receiving groove 211. Due to the limiting effect of the return material piece 23 on the receiving groove 211, before the loading piece 21 is docked with the corresponding receiving portion 323, the first workpiece 200 in the receiving groove 211 will not When the loading member 21 moves upward to dock with the corresponding receiving portion 323, the receiving groove 211 is connected with the corresponding feeding groove 322, so that the first workpiece 200 in the receiving groove 211 falls into the corresponding feeding groove 322. If the first workpiece 200 does not fall into the feeding groove 322 or rolls out from the feeding groove 322, the first workpiece 200 falls from the gap between the multiple receiving portions 323 and falls into the return material chute 231 of the return material member 23. Under the action of the inclined surface of the return material chute 231, the first workpiece 200 rolls again to the bottom 221 of the material box 22, thereby realizing the return of the first workpiece 200.

[0035] In this embodiment, grooves 324 connected to the corresponding feed groove 322 are formed on both sides of each receiving portion 323, and each groove 324 is inclined toward the top plate 11 of the feed platform 10 from one end close to the feed groove 322 to the end away from the feed groove 322. In this way, when the loading piece 21 supplies the first workpiece 200 to the corresponding feed trough 322, the vibration body 31 causes the feed tray 32 to vibrate. If the first workpiece 200 is in the feed trough 322 in a vertical posture, the first workpiece 200 moves along the feed trough 322 toward the corresponding drop hole 321. If the first workpiece 200 is tilted or lying on its side in the feed trough 322, when the first workpiece 200 moves along the feed trough 322 to the corresponding groove 324, the first workpiece 200 falls along the groove 324 into the return chute 231 of the return piece 23, thereby filtering out the first workpiece 200 that does not meet the posture requirements, ensuring that the supplied first workpiece 200 meets the posture requirements, and improving the feeding accuracy of the feeding equipment 100.

[0036] In this embodiment, one end of each loading member 21 for accommodating the first workpiece 200 is set as an accommodating slope 212, and the accommodating groove 211 is opened on the accommodating slope 212. Each accommodating slope 212 is inclined toward the top plate 11 of the feeding platform 10 from the end away from the return material member 23 to the end close to the return material member 23. The bottom 221 of the material box 22 is a bearing slope 222, and the bearing slope 222 is parallel to the accommodating slope 212. In this way, by limiting the loading member 21 to have the accommodating slope 212, and limiting the bottom 221 of the material box 22 to be the bearing slope 222, and the accommodating slope 212 is parallel to the bearing slope 222, when the loading member 21 moves downward to be flush with the bottom 221, the loading member 21 can lift up the first workpiece 200 on the bottom 221, thereby improving the supply rate of the first workpiece 200.

[0037] In this embodiment, the material box 22 also includes a box surface 223, a box frame 224 and a box seat 225. The box surface 223 is roughly a flat plate, the box frame 224 is roughly a U-shaped structure, and the box seat 225 is roughly a right-angled trapezoid. The box seat 225 is arranged on the top plate 11 and is used to support the box bottom 221. The box seat 225 can be a hollow structure to facilitate the passage of multiple loading parts 21 through the box seat 225. The box surface 223 is connected to the top plate 11 and abuts against the side of the box seat 225 facing the feeding mechanism 30. The box frame 224 is connected to the box surface 223 and wraps the box seat 225 and the box bottom 221. In this way, by setting the specific structure of the above-mentioned material box 22, the box frame 224, the box surface 223 and the box bottom 221 are enclosed to form a material box 22 with a top opening, so as to accommodate a batch of first workpieces 200, and the box seat 225 supports the box bottom 221, so that the bearing inclined surface 222 of the box bottom 221 is parallel to the accommodating inclined surface 212, thereby improving the supply rate of the first workpiece 200.

[0038] In this embodiment, in order to make the contact between the feed piece 21 and the return piece 23 smooth, a plurality of sliding parts 232 are provided on the side of the return piece 23 facing the feed piece 21. The sliding parts 232 can be made of plastic, glass or other materials that can smoothly contact with the feed piece 21 and can reduce friction resistance. In this way, by providing the above-mentioned sliding parts 232 on the return piece 23, the feed piece 21 and the return piece 23 can contact smoothly.

[0039] In this embodiment, in order to realize the centralized driving of multiple feeding pieces 21 and ensure the moving accuracy of the feeding pieces 21, the feeding mechanism 20 also includes an assembly plate 25 and a linear sleeve 26. The assembly plate 25 is connected to the power piece 24. A plurality of assembly grooves 251 are provided on the side of the assembly plate 25 away from the power piece 24. The plurality of assembly grooves 251 are arranged one-to-one with the plurality of feeding pieces 21. Each feeding piece 21 is arranged in a corresponding assembly groove 251. There are two linear sleeves 26. Both linear sleeves 26 are arranged on the assembly plate 25 and are respectively slidably sleeved on two of the support columns 13. In this way, by setting the above-mentioned assembly plate 25, the centralized setting of the plurality of feeding pieces 21 is realized, so that the power piece 24 can simultaneously drive the plurality of feeding pieces 21 to move up and down through the assembly plate 25. By setting the above-mentioned linear sleeve 26, the assembly plate 25 can move along the support column 13 through the linear sleeve 26, so as to ensure the moving accuracy of the plurality of feeding pieces 21.

[0040] In this embodiment, the feeding mechanism 30 further includes a plurality of magnetic elements 33, which may be magnets. The plurality of magnetic elements 33 correspond to the plurality of blanking holes 321 one by one. Each magnetic element 33 is disposed on the feeding tray 32 and adjacent to the corresponding blanking hole 321. The magnetic element 33 is used to magnetically attract the corresponding first workpiece 200 so that the first workpiece 200 is placed in the corresponding blanking hole 321. The feeding tray 32 further includes a plurality of embedded holes 325, which correspond to the plurality of blanking holes 321 one by one. Each embedded hole 325 is spaced apart from the corresponding blanking hole 321, and each magnetic element 33 is disposed in the corresponding embedded hole 325. In this way, by arranging the above-mentioned magnetic element 33, the magnetic element 33 attracts the first workpiece 200 so that the first workpiece 200 is placed in the corresponding blanking hole 321.

[0041] The blanking mechanism 40 further includes a pressing assembly 42 and a driving assembly 43. The pressing assembly 42 is arranged above the feeding tray 32, that is, the pressing assembly 42 is arranged above the plurality of blanking holes 321. The pressing assembly 42 includes a plurality of pressing members 421, and the plurality of pressing members 421 correspond to the plurality of blanking holes 321 one by one. The driving assembly 43 is arranged on the top plate 11 of the feeding platform 10 and is respectively connected to the bearing assembly 41 and the pressing assembly 42. The driving assembly 43 is used to drive the bearing assembly 41 and the pressing member 42 to move the material feeding tray 32. The components 42 are respectively close to the supply tray 32, that is, the supporting component 41 approaches the supply tray 32 from the bottom of the supply tray 32, and the pressing component 42 approaches the supply tray 32 from the top of the supply tray 32, so that the multiple placement positions 301 of the second workpiece 300 carried by the supporting component 41 are correspondingly connected with the multiple blanking holes 321, and each pressing component 421 is inserted into the corresponding blanking hole 321 to press down the corresponding first workpiece 200, so that the first workpiece 200 falls into the corresponding placement position 301 of the second workpiece 300. In this way, by setting the above-mentioned pressing component 42 and driving component 43, when the magnetic element 33 magnetically adsorbs the corresponding first workpiece 200 and makes the first workpiece 200 located at the corresponding blanking hole 321, the driving component 43 drives the supporting component 41 and the pressing component 42 to approach the supply tray 32 respectively, so that the placement position 301 of the second workpiece 300 corresponds to the blanking hole 321, and the first workpiece 200 is pushed by the pressing member 421 of the pressing component 42 to make the first workpiece 200 fall into the corresponding placement position 301, thereby realizing the assembly of the first workpiece 200 and the second workpiece 300. In addition, by making the placement position 301 of the second workpiece 300 correspond to the blanking hole 321, the first workpiece 200 can be directly placed in the placement position 301 under the push of the corresponding pressing member 421, thereby improving the assembly accuracy of the first workpiece 200 and the second workpiece 300.

[0042] It can be understood that when the first workpiece 200 is placed in the corresponding blanking hole 321 under the attraction of the magnetic element 33, the first workpiece 200 will not fall under its own gravity when it is not affected by the force of the pressing assembly 42, thereby ensuring that multiple first workpieces 200 placed in multiple blanking holes 321 can fall at the same time.

[0043] In this embodiment, in order to observe the moving state of the first workpiece 200 in the feeding trough 322, the feeding mechanism 30 further includes a transparent member 34, which is disposed on the top of the feeding tray 32 and covers the multiple feeding troughs 322 and the multiple drop holes 321. The transparent member 34 also covers the multiple embedding holes 325, and the shape of the transparent member 34 is substantially similar to that of the feeding tray 32, that is, one end of the transparent member 34 used to cover the multiple receiving portions 323 is configured to be compatible with the multiple receiving portions 323. The transparent member 34 can be made of acrylic material, glass material or other light-transmitting material. In this way, by setting the above-mentioned transparent part 34, it is convenient to observe the moving state of the first workpiece 200 in the feed trough 322. In addition, by setting the above-mentioned transparent part 34, the feed trough 322, the drop hole 321 and the embedding hole 325 can also be protected to prevent the first workpiece 200 from escaping from the feed trough 322 or the drop hole 321 under the vibration of the feed tray 32, and to prevent the magnetic element 33 from escaping from the embedding hole 325.

[0044] In this embodiment, in order to reduce the moving stroke of the bearing assembly 41, the feeding mechanism 30 further includes a plurality of blanking barrels 35, which are hollow structures. The plurality of blanking barrels 35 are arranged one by one with the plurality of blanking holes 321. Each blanking barrel 35 is arranged at the bottom of the feeding tray 32 and communicates with the corresponding blanking hole 321. The blanking barrel 35 is used to make the first workpiece 200 fall into the corresponding placement position 301 of the second workpiece 300 along the vertical direction. Among them, the feeding mechanism 30 further includes an assembly plate 36, on which the plurality of blanking barrels 35 are arranged. The assembly plate 36 is connected to the bottom of the feeding tray 32. The plurality of blanking barrels 35 are centrally arranged through the assembly plate 36, and the vibration body 31 also avoids the assembly plate 36. In this way, by arranging the above-mentioned blanking barrel 35, the moving stroke of the bearing assembly 41 is reduced, so that the second workpiece 300 carried by the bearing assembly 41 is communicated with the corresponding blanking hole 321 by abutting against the blanking barrel 35.

In this way, when the bearing assembly 41 moves up and down, the bearing plate 412 moves up and down along the guide rod 414 through the bearing sleeve 413 to ensure the movement accuracy of the bearing plate 412 and the second workpiece 300.

[0046] In this embodiment, the pressing assembly 42 also includes a first plate 422 and a second plate 423, which are connected to form an air cavity (not shown in the figure), and the second plate 423 faces the top plate 11 of the feeding platform 10.

Each pressing piece 421 is connected to the second plate 423 and is connected to the air cavity. The air cavity is used to communicate with an external air source (not shown in the figure) to generate positive pressure in the air cavity and the multiple pressing pieces 421, so that when the pressing piece 421 is inserted into the corresponding blanking hole 321, the first workpiece 200 is blown, so that the first workpiece 200 falls into the corresponding placement position 301 along the blanking hole 321 and the blanking tube 35. The pressing assembly 42 further includes an air joint 424, which is connected to the first plate 422 or the second plate 423 and communicates with the air cavity, and the air joint 424 communicates with an external air source, and at least one of the first plate 422 and the second plate 423 is provided with a groove structure so that an air cavity is formed when the first plate 422 and the second plate 423 are connected. In this way, by setting the specific structure of the pressing assembly 42, a positive pressure can be generated in the pressing member 421, so as to blow air to the first workpiece 200, so that the first workpiece 200 falls into the corresponding placement position 301 along the blanking hole 321 and the blanking barrel 35.

[0047] It can be understood that when there is no need to blow air on the first workpiece 200, the first plate 422 and the second plate 423 can both be flat plates, the lower pressure piece 421 can also be a solid structure, the first plate 422 is connected to the second plate 423 and the second plate 423 faces the top plate 11 of the feeding platform 10, and multiple lower pressure pieces 421 are connected to the second plate 423, and the second plate 423 is connected to the driving assembly 43, that is, the driving assembly 43 drives the second plate 423 to move to drive the first plate 422 and multiple lower pressure pieces 421 to move, thereby pushing the multiple first workpieces 200 out from the multiple blanking holes 321.

[0048] In this embodiment, in order to enable the pressing assembly 42 to blow air to the first workpiece 200 in time, the feeding mechanism 30 further includes a sensor 37, which may be an infrared sensor or a distance sensor. The sensor 37 is disposed on the transparent member 34 and is located below the second plate 423 of the pressing assembly 42, and the sensor 37 is electrically connected to an external air source. Thus, when the pressing assembly 42 moves toward the feeding tray 32, when the sensor 37 senses the second plate 423 of the pressing assembly 42, the sensor 37 sends a signal to the external air source, and the external air source starts to generate positive pressure, thereby generating positive pressure in the pressing member 421, so as to blow air to the first workpiece 200, so that the pressing assembly 42 can blow air to the first workpiece 200 in time, and ensure the smooth operation of the feeding device 100.

[0049] In this embodiment, in order to limit the stroke of the pressing assembly 42, the pressing assembly 42 further includes a limiting member 425, and the number of the limiting members 425 is two. The two limiting members 425 are arranged at intervals and are respectively arranged at both ends of the second plate 423 of the pressing assembly 42, and each limiting member 425 protrudes from the second plate 423 and extends toward the feed tray 32. In this way, when the pressing assembly 42 moves toward the feed tray 32, the limiting member 425 abuts against the feed tray 32 to limit the stroke of the pressing assembly 42.

[0050] In this embodiment, the driving assembly 43 includes a driving member 431, a first pulley 432, a second pulley 433, a third pulley 434, a fourth pulley 435, a bracket 436 and a sliding rope 437. The driving member 431 can be a cylinder, and the driving member 431 has an output end 438. The driving member 431 can be a cylinder, and the output end 438 can be a cylindrical rod. The driving member 431 is arranged between the top plate 11 and the bottom plate 12 of the feeding platform 10 through a mounting plate 439 and is located below the bearing assembly 41. Specifically, the mounting plate 439 is connected to the top plate 11 and is located between the top plate 11 and the bottom plate 12. The driving member 431 is arranged on the mounting plate 439. The first pulley 432 is rotatably connected to the output end 438 of the driving member 431, the second pulley 433 is rotatably connected to the bearing plate 412 of the bearing assembly 41, and the third pulley 434 is rotatably connected to the second plate 423 of the pressing assembly 42, the bracket 436 extends relatively obliquely, one end of the bracket 436 is connected to the top plate 11 of the feeding platform 10 and is located on one side of the bearing assembly 41, the fourth pulley 435 is rotatably connected to the other end of the bracket 436 close to the bearing assembly 41, and the fourth pulley 435 is located between the second pulley 433 and the third pulley 434, the sliding rope 437 is sequentially passed through the first pulley 432, the fourth pulley 435, the second pulley 433, the third pulley 434 and returns to the first pulley 432, wherein the first pulley 432, the second pulley 433, the third pulley 434, the fourth pulley 435, the bracket 436 and the sliding rope 437 are all two in number and are respectively arranged at the output end 438, the bearing plate 412, the second plate 423, and the two ends of the top plate 11. In this way, by setting the specific structure of the above-mentioned driving component 43, when the output end 438 of the driving member 431 moves downward, the output end 438 drives the first pulley 432 to move downward, and the first pulley 432 drives the second pulley 433 to move upward through the sliding rope 437 and the fourth pulley 435, so that the bearing component 41 moves upward, and the first pulley 432 drives the third pulley 434 to move downward through the sliding rope 437, so that the pressing component 42 moves downward, so that the driving component 43 can drive the bearing component 41 and the pressing component 42 to move closer to the supply tray 32 respectively.

[0051] In this embodiment, in order to ensure that the supporting component 41 and the pressing component 42 can be smoothly reset, the blanking mechanism 40 also includes an elastic component 44. The number of the elastic components 44 is two. The two elastic components 44 are arranged at intervals and are respectively connected to the second plate 423 of the pressing component 42.

In this way, when the driving component 43 drives the pressing component 42 and the supporting component 41 to approach the feed tray 32 respectively, the pressing component 42 drives the guide member 441 to move downward and compress the elastic member 442, and the elastic member 442 generates an elastic force. When the driving member 431 of the driving component 43 removes the driving force, the elastic force of the elastic member 442 is released to drive the pressing component 42 to move upward. The pressing component 42 drives the supporting component 41 to move downward through the sliding rope 437 and each pulley to reset, and drives the output end 438 to move upward to reset, thereby ensuring that the supporting component 41 and the pressing component 42 can be reset smoothly.
