[0005] The feeding vibration plate includes a main body; a feeding plate arranged in a spiral shape is arranged on the main body; the feeding plate extends obliquely upward; layered baffles that only allow flat end covers to pass through one by one, a lifting rod that changes the end cover from a flat state to an upright state, an inclined groove that tilts the end cover with the groove facing downward toward the outside of the main body to a flat state, a pressure rod that only allows the end cover in a flat state to pass through; a baffle and a second baffle that only allow the end cover with the notch facing upward and the groove facing the inside of the main body to pass through are arranged in sequence inside the main body along the conveying direction of the feeding plate.
[0006] As a further improvement of the present invention, the distance between the layered baffle plate and the loading plate is greater than the height of the end cover and less than twice the height of the end cover.
[0007] As a further improvement of the present invention, the lifting rod is arranged on the loading plate; the distance between the lifting rod and the side wall of the main body is equivalent to the height of the end cover; one end of the lifting rod close to the layered baffle is against the loading plate, and the other end extends above the upper material plate.
[0008] As a further improvement of the present invention, the distance between the pressure rod and the loading plate is greater than the height of the end cover and less than the width of the end cover.
[0009] As a further improvement of the present invention, the loading plate is inclined from the inner side of the main body to the outer side and downward side of the main body.
[0010] As a further improvement of the present invention, there is a gap between the baffle and the loading plate; the end cover with the notch facing upward will pass through the gap; a second step surface for receiving the end cover pushed open by the baffle is also provided on the main body, which is located outside the loading plate and between the baffle and the second baffle; an inclined guide surface is provided on the baffle; the end cover with the plane facing upward will abut against the guide surface and move to the second step surface.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effect of the present invention is that the present solution continuously and stably outputs the end cover in a uniform direction through the vibration of the main body and the coordination of various components, which is convenient for clamping at subsequent workstations.
[0016] This solution makes full use of the structural characteristics of the end cover itself by setting an inclined groove, screens the end covers according to the different positions of the center of gravity of the upright end covers, and cooperates with the pressure rod so that all the end covers passing through the inclined groove and the pressure rod become flat end covers with the grooves facing the inner side of the main body, and the structure is simple.
[0017] Through the coordination of the guide surface, the second step surface and the push rod, this solution allows the end cover with the plane facing upward, which was originally located at the baffle position, to rotate 90° under the action of the guide surface and fall onto the second step surface, becoming an upright state. After being acted upon by the push rod, it is rotated 90° again to become a flat state, and the two rotation directions are the same. Therefore, for the end cover with the plane facing upward, the end cover rotates 180°, and finally the end cover with the plane facing upward becomes a state with the notch facing upward.
[0018] This solution uses the cooperation of the second step surface, the push rod, and the reflux surface to change the end cover that was originally eliminated by the baffle plate and re-enter the loading plate through the reflux surface, thereby increasing the output quantity of the end cover at the unloading track and improving work efficiency.
[0019] This solution sets a baffle plate and a second baffle plate, so that only the end cover with the notch facing upward and the groove facing the inner side of the main body can pass through the baffle plate and the second baffle plate, preparing for the end cover with the same output direction of the unloading track.

[0030] Specific embodiment 1: Please refer to Figure 1-Figure 12A slider end cover feeding vibration plate, one end of the end cover 9 along the width direction is provided with a groove 91, and the other end is a solid 92; one end of the end cover 9 along the height direction is provided with a notch 94, and the other end is a plane 93.
[0031] The feeding vibration plate includes a main body 1; a feeding plate 11 arranged in a spiral shape is arranged on the main body 1; the feeding plate 11 extends obliquely upward; a layered baffle 2 that only allows flat end covers to pass through one by one, a lifting rod 3 that changes the end cover 9 from a flat state to an upright state, an inclined groove 4 that tilts the end cover 9 with the groove 91 facing downward toward the outside of the main body 1 to a flat state, a pressing rod 5 that only allows the end cover in a flat state to pass through; a baffle 6 and a second baffle 7 that only allow the end cover 9 with the notch 94 facing upward and the groove 91 facing the inside of the main body 1 to pass through.
[0032] When the end cap 9 is erected, the center of gravity of the end cap 9 is located at the position of the solid body 92. If the groove 91 is facing upward, the center of gravity of the end cap 9 is located at the bottom, and the end cap 9 is stable as a whole. If the groove 91 is facing downward, the center of gravity of the end cap 9 is located at the top, and the end cap 9 is unstable as a whole and is easy to fall over. When the end cap 9 is placed flat, the plane 93 or the notch 94 is facing upward.
[0033] The distance between the lower end surface of the chute 4 and the loading plate 11 is less than half of the width of the end cover 9 .
[0034] When the upright end cover 9 moves to the inclined slot 4, the center of gravity of the end cover 9 with the groove 91 facing upward is located below the lower end surface of the inclined slot 4, and thus the end cover 9 will remain upright while passing through the inclined slot 4, and the center of gravity of the end cover 9 with the groove 91 facing downward is located at the upper end of the inclined slot 4, and thus the entity 92 on the end cover 9 tilts toward the inclined slot 4, and thus the end cover 9 as a whole moves from upright to flat, with the groove 91 facing the inside of the main body 1.
[0035] The distance between the layered baffle plate 2 and the loading plate 11 is greater than the height of the end cover 9 and less than twice the height of the end cover 9 .
[0036] The end caps 9 entering the loading plate 11 from the bottom of the main body 1 will be stacked, that is, multiple end caps 9 are arranged together. When the end caps 9 move along the loading plate 11 to the layering baffle 2, only the lowest and flat end cap 9 will pass through the layering baffle 2, and the remaining end caps 9 will be blocked by the layering baffle 2 and fall back to the bottom of the main body 1.
[0037] The lifting rod 3 is arranged on the loading plate 11; the distance between the lifting rod 3 and the side wall of the main body 1 is equivalent to the height of the end cover 9; one end of the lifting rod 3 close to the layered baffle 2 is against the loading plate 11, and the other end extends above the upper plate 11.
[0038] When the flat end cover 9 passes the lifting rod 3, the surface of the end cover 9 will move along the lifting rod 3 and finally become upright.
[0039] The distance between the pressing rod 5 and the loading plate 11 is greater than the height of the end cover 9 and smaller than the width of the end cover 9 .
[0040] When the upright end cover 9 moves onto the pressure rod 5, the pressure rod 5 forces the end cover 9 to fall toward the center of the main body 1, and finally the end cover becomes flat.
[0041] The loading plate 11 is inclined from the inner side of the main body 1 to the outer side and downward of the main body 1 .
[0042] When the end cover 9 moves into the loading plate 11, the end cover 9 will move downward along the inclined direction of the loading plate 11, and then the end cover 9 will abut between the loading plate 11 and the side wall of the main body 1 to prevent the end cover 9 from detaching from the loading plate 11 and falling to the bottom of the main body 1.
[0043] There is a gap between the baffle 6 and the loading plate 11; the end cover 9 with the notch 94 facing upward will pass through the gap; a second step surface 13 for receiving the end cover 9 pushed open by the baffle 6 is also provided on the main body 1, which is located outside the loading plate 11 and between the baffle 6 and the second baffle 7; the height of the loading plate 11 is higher than the second step surface 13 of the loading plate 11; an inclined guide surface 61 is provided on the baffle 6; the end cover 9 with the plane 93 facing upward will abut against the guide surface 61 and move to the second step surface 13.
[0044] A guide rod 62 is provided on the loading plate 11 near the baffle 6 ; the guide rod 62 pushes the upright end cover 9 to fall onto the second step surface 13 .
[0045] After being pushed by the guide surface 61 , the end cover 9 will fall upright onto the second step surface 13 .
[0046] A return surface 15 is provided between the end of the second step surface 13 and the loading plate 11, and a push rod 14 is provided at the transition position between the second step surface 13 and the return surface 15 for transforming the end cover 9 in an upright state into a flat state. A vertically distributed limit plate 131 is provided between the return surface 15 and the second step surface 13.
[0047] The distance between the push rod 14 and the second step surface 13 is greater than the height of the end cap 9. After the end cap 9 on the second step surface 13 approaches the push rod 15, it is pushed by the push rod 15, so that the end cap 9 becomes flat. Then the end cap 9 continues to move forward until a part of the end cap 9 enters the return surface 15. At this time, when the other part of the end cap 9 passes through the limit plate 131, the end cap 9 may be deflected, which leads to the random distribution of the orientation of the end cap 9 entering the return surface 15. Finally, the end cap 9 on the return surface 15 re-enters the loading plate 11 and continues to move forward.
[0048] A second baffle plate 7 is disposed on the loading plate 11 behind the return surface 15 ; a second guide surface 71 distributed obliquely is disposed on the second baffle plate 7 ; a gap is provided between the second baffle plate 7 and the loading plate 11 ; the end cover 9 with the notch 94 facing upward will pass through the gap.
[0049] The end cap 9 that enters the loading plate 11 through the return surface 15 is screened again by the second baffle plate 7. A second guide rod 72 is provided at a position of the loading plate 11 near the second baffle plate 7.
[0050] A feed plate 83 is provided at the end of the loading plate 11; a discharge track 81 is provided at the end of the feed plate 83 away from the loading plate 11; the width of the feed plate 83 is equivalent to the width of the end cover 9; the width of the discharge track 81 is equivalent to the length of the end cover 9; a support column 811 is provided in the discharge track 81 near the feed plate 83; the feed plate 83 and the discharge track 81 have the same inclination direction; a discharge port 82 with a width equal to the width of the end cover 9 is provided in the discharge track 81.
[0051] In the feed plate 83, the length direction of the end cap 9 is parallel to the feed plate 83; when the end cap 9 in the feed plate 83 enters the unloading track 81, the abutment column 811 abuts against the end cap 9, and the end cap 9 will deflect along the inclined direction of the unloading track 81 under the action of its own gravity, thereby rotating the end cap 9 90°, and finally the width direction of the end cap 9 is parallel to the unloading track 81. The end cap 9 that enters the unloading track 81 and does not deflect will leave the unloading track 81 from the drop port 82 and be discarded.
[0052] The main body 1 is provided with a blanking plate 12 which is in communication with the interior of the main body 1 ; the blanking plate 12 is located below the second step surface 13 .
[0053] The end cap 9 dropped from the blanking opening 82 enters the blanking plate 12 .
[0054] The main body 1 is provided with an oscillator; when the oscillator is working, the main body 1 vibrates as a whole, and then the end cover 9 moves forward gradually along the loading plate 11 under the vibration.
[0055] During operation, a certain number of end caps 9 are added to the main body 1. Then the main body 1 vibrates, and the end caps 9 move steadily along the loading plate 11. When the end caps 9 move to the layering baffle 2, the layering baffle 2 blocks the movement of the end caps 9, so that only a layer of end caps 9 lying flat will pass through the layering baffle 2, thereby reducing the density of the end caps 9.
[0056] The end cap 9 continues to move forward. When the end cap 9 moves to the lifting rod 3, the flat end cap 9 will become upright under the action of the lifting rod 3. Then the upright end cap 9 moves along the loading plate 11 and arrives at the chute 4.
[0057] The end cap 9 with the groove 91 facing upward will pass through the inclined slot 4, and the end cap 9 with the groove 91 facing downward will have its center of gravity located above the inclined slot 4, so that the entity 92 of the end cap 9 tilts into the inclined slot 4, and finally the end cap 9 becomes flat with the groove 91 facing the inside of the main body 1.
[0058] The end cap 9 continues to move forward. The flat end cap 9 will pass through the pressure rod 5, while the upright end cap 9 with the groove 91 facing upward will abut against the pressure rod 5, and under the action of the pressure rod 5, the upper part of the end cap 9 will tilt toward the inside of the main body 1, and finally the end cap 9 will be in a flat state, with the groove 91 facing the inside of the main body 1. Then, after the action of the inclined slot 4 and the pressure rod 5, each end cap 9 is in a flat state with the groove 91 facing the inside of the main body 1.
[0059] Each end cap 9 continues to move forward. When the end cap 9 approaches the baffle 6, the end cap 9 with the notch 94 facing upward and the groove 91 facing the inner side of the main body 1 will smoothly enter the lower end of the baffle 6 and continue to move along the loading plate 11. The end cap 9 with the flat surface 93 facing upward will abut against the guide surface 61 and fall onto the second step surface 13 under the action of the guide surface 6.
[0060] A part of the end cap 9 that falls on the second step surface 13 leaves the second step surface 13 under the action of inertia and enters the blanking plate 12. The other part of the end cap will be upright on the second step surface 13 and move along the second step surface 13.
[0061] When the upright end cap 9 on the second step surface 13 moves to the position of the push rod 14, the push rod 14 will push the end cap 9, turning the upright end cap 9 into a flat end cap 9, and at this time, the notch 94 of the end cap 9 faces upward. Then the flat end cap 9 enters the return surface 15. In the process of the end cap 9 entering the return surface 15, the end cap 9 will abut against the limit plate 131 and deflect randomly, thereby changing the direction of the groove 91 on the end cap 9, but the end cap 9 is always in a flat state during this process. Finally, the end cap 9 on the return surface 15 re-enters the loading plate 11, and the direction of the groove 91 is random.
[0062] Then the end cap 9 moves toward the second baffle 7. The second baffle 7 screens the end caps 9 again, allowing only the end caps with the notches 94 facing upward and the grooves 91 facing the inner side of the body 1 to pass, while the remaining end caps 9 will fall onto the blanking plate 12 under the action of the second guide surface 71.
[0063] The end cap 9 that passes through the second baffle 7 finally enters the feed plate 83. Then the end cap 9 moves forward along the feed plate 83. When the end cap 9 passes through the feed plate 83 and enters the discharge track 81, for an end cap 9 at this position, the stop column 811 contacts the end cap 9 and hinders part of the movement of the end cap 9, and the part of the end cap 9 that extends into the discharge track 81 will deflect along the inclined direction of the discharge track 81, and then the end cap 9 as a whole rotates 90° along the stop column 81. However, some end caps 9 that pass through the feed plate 83 and enter the discharge track 81 do not rotate. When the end cap 9 that has not rotated advances to the position of the discharge port 82, the end cap 9 will fall from the discharge port 82 onto the discharge plate 12. Finally, the discharge track 81 outputs the end cap 9 with the notch 94 facing upward and the groove 91 facing the front of the discharge track 81.
[0064] The main body 1 continues to vibrate, and the end of the unloading track 81 will continue to stably output toward the uniform end cover 9.
[0065] The end cap 9 dropped onto the blanking plate 12 will return to the main body 1 again.
