The push mechanism 200 is set as a part of the loading device. The push mechanism 200 uses the push block 220 to push the workpiece 500 to the temporary storage table 214 along the inclined direction of the sliding surface 212a. When loading, the operator only needs to place the workpiece 500 on the push block 220. The operation is convenient and simple, eliminating the trouble of manually aligning the workpiece 500. When the workpiece 500 arrives at the temporary storage table 214, the detection part 215 detects the workpiece 500. At this time, the transfer mechanism 300 grabs and transfers the workpiece 500 to the storage table. The platform 110; the placement portion 111, the clearance socket 112 and the positioning column 113 cooperate with each other to realize the installation and fastening of the workpiece 500, so as to avoid the position of the workpiece 500 from changing, thereby causing a large number of defective products in the subsequent injection molding; the set transfer mechanism 300 is a six-degree-of-freedom mechanical device, which can ultimately realize the movement of the material picking part 340 at any position in the three-dimensional space, so as to facilitate the workpiece 500 to be taken to the storage platform 110; the set detection mechanism 400 can detect the quality of the workpiece 500, so as to avoid waste or broken workpieces 500 causing an increase in the defective rate of the final product.
[0047] It is understandable that, referring to Figure 1 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 and Figure 8 The workpiece 500 is a workpiece extended in the left-right direction, and its cross section is L-shaped. One section of the L-shape is inserted into the yield socket 112, and the other section of the L-shape is buckled on the placement portion 111. The workpiece 500 always exists in pairs, because a pair of workpieces 500 is a necessary state for injection molding of the network filter, because in the mold, a pair of workpieces 500 can form PIN pins on both sides of the network filter after injection molding; the principle of the temporary storage table 214 is actually similar to the yield socket 112. Another reason why the L-shaped workpiece rises along the inclined surface is that the temporary storage table 214 is also provided with a socket. After the L-shaped workpiece 500 is pushed by the push block 220 to rise along the inclined surface, when the workpiece 500 arrives close to a section of the above-mentioned socket, the L-shaped workpiece 500 will be buckled into the above-mentioned socket under the influence of its own gravity; the material picking part 340 can be a suction cup, or it can be a magnet or an adhesive block, generally speaking, it is a suction cup.
[0048] Reference Figures 6 to 8 There are multiple yielding sockets 112, and the placement portion 111 is arranged one-to-one corresponding to the yielding sockets 112. Two L-shaped workpieces 500 can be placed in two adjacent yielding sockets 112 with their top angles relative to each other, and a plurality of workpieces 500 can also be placed, so as to provide a preparation position and realize assembly line loading. Generally speaking, an even number of yielding sockets 112 are arranged, because this allows the workpieces 500 to exist in pairs.
[0049] In some embodiments, transfer mechanisms 300 are provided on the left and right sides of the storage table 110 to improve loading efficiency and ensure the saturation of the workpieces 500 stored in the storage table 110. It can be understood that the saturation of the workpieces 500 stored in the storage table 110 refers to the large number of pairs of workpieces 500, which can meet the needs of production retrieval and standby, and ensure the continuous operation of the process.
[0050] In some embodiments, the support member 210 includes: a bracket 211, including a base 211a and a connecting block 211b that are integrally formed, the base 211a is horizontally arranged, the connecting block 211b is tilted, and the first driving member 230 is arranged on the bracket 211; a receiving plate 212, connected to the connecting block 211b, the receiving plate 212 and the connecting block 211b are tilted in the same direction, the plate surface of the receiving plate 212 is arranged as a sliding surface 212a, the receiving plate 212 is provided with a guide rail 212b, and the push block 220 is slidably connected to the guide rail 212b; a baffle 213, the left and right sides of the receiving plate 212 are connected with baffles 213, the two baffles 213 and the receiving plate 212 define a channel 216 for the workpiece 500 to slide, the support member 210 has a simple structure, and the baffle 213 can limit the width of the channel 216 to accommodate workpieces 500 of different lengths, and has a wide range of applications.
[0051] Reference Figure 5 There are two connecting blocks 211b, and the two connecting blocks 211b are symmetrically arranged in the front-to-back direction about the vertical bisector of the base 211a. The connecting blocks 211b are arranged in the front-to-back direction, so that the workpieces 500 can be placed on the push block 220 in the front-to-back direction, so that the two push blocks in the front-to-back direction can push the two workpieces 500 to the temporary storage table 214, and the two workpieces 500 are in a state of relative vertex angles on the temporary storage table 214, so that when transferring, the workpieces 500 can be transferred to the storage table 110 in pairs, so that the workpieces 500 can be more conveniently transferred to the mold for injection molding. The so-called vertical bisector refers to the symmetrical plane of the base 211a in the front-to-back direction. Such a structural design enables the two push blocks 220 to push a pair of workpieces 500 to the temporary storage table 214, which not only meets the needs of loading, but also meets the needs of transfer.
[0052] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 The baffle plate 213 is slidably connected to the receiving plate 212 along the left-right direction through the connecting shaft 217. The two baffle plates 213 can be relatively close to or far away from each other along the left-right direction, so that the width of the channel 216 defined by the two baffle plates 213 can be adjusted, which is convenient for adapting to workpieces 500 of different lengths and has a wide range of applications. It can be understood that the connecting shaft 217 is locked and unlocked by a locking block. Locking blocks are provided at the left and right ends of the receiving plate 212, and the connecting shaft 217 passes through the locking blocks. The locking blocks fix the connecting shaft in a common screw fixing manner, that is, the screws are used to tighten the connecting shaft 217 to achieve fixation.
[0053] In some embodiments, the first driving member 230 includes: a motor 231, which is arranged on the bracket 211; a screw rod 232, which is rotatably connected to the receiving plate 212, and the screw rod 232 is arranged below the receiving plate 212. The push block 220 is threadedly connected to the screw rod 232, and the screw rod 232 is transmission-connected to the motor 231. The motor 231 is used to drive the screw rod 232 to rotate and thereby drive the push block 220 to slide on the receiving plate 212. The first driving member 230 has a simple structure, and the screw rod 232 transmits smoothly and with high precision, and can smoothly transfer the workpiece 500 to the temporary storage table 214.
[0054] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4The push block 220 includes: a sliding portion 221, which is slidably connected to the guide rail 212b; a connecting portion 222, a relief opening 212c is provided on the receiving plate 212, the connecting portion 222 is inserted into the relief opening 212c and is threadedly connected to the screw rod 232; a pushing portion 223, which is used to contact the workpiece 500 and push the workpiece 500 to move; the sliding portion 221, the connecting portion 222 and the pushing portion 223 are integrally formed, and the structure of the push block 220 is simple, which meets the structural requirements of sliding on the receiving plate 212. The relief opening 212c provided on the receiving plate 212 is in the middle of the receiving plate 212. The structure of the push block 220 can ensure that the weight of the push block 220 is balanced and shared, thereby ensuring the smooth sliding of the push block 220. It should be noted that, with reference to Figure 3 The sliding portion 221 is also provided with a baffle, and the receiving plate 212 is provided with a photoelectric sensor, and the baffle and the photoelectric sensor cooperate to realize functions such as counting.
[0055] In some embodiments, a contoured structure 223a is provided at one end of the pushing portion 223 close to the workpiece 500. The contoured structure 223a is used to match the shape of the workpiece 500 to load the workpiece 500. The contoured structure 223a can just match the corner of the L-shaped workpiece 500, so as to facilitate the placement of the L-shaped workpiece 500 and facilitate pushing. It can be understood that the L-shaped workpiece 500 is placed on the contoured structure 223a, so that the top angle of the L-shaped workpiece 500 is oriented in the same direction as the inclination direction of the receiving plate 212.
[0056] A method for using a feeding device, applied to the feeding device, further comprising the following steps:
[0057] Unloading, placing the workpiece 500 on the contoured structure 223a;

[0059] Detection transfer: the detection member 215 detects whether there are workpieces 500 on both temporary storage tables 214. If there are workpieces 500 on both temporary storage tables 214, the transfer mechanism 300 grabs the two workpieces 500 and transfers them to the storage table 110. The cross-section of the workpiece 500 in the left and right directions is L-shaped. The two workpieces 500 on the temporary storage tables 214 have their top angles arranged opposite to each other in the front-to-back direction.
[0060] Material storage: After the transfer mechanism 300 grabs the two workpieces 500, they are transferred to the material storage table 110. The two workpieces 500 are arranged on the material storage table with their top corners facing each other in the front-back direction. One section of the L-shaped workpiece 500 is inserted into the retractable socket 112, and the other section is buckled on the placement portion 111.
[0061] Quality inspection, using the inspection mechanism 400 to perform quality inspection on the workpiece 500 on the storage table 110, to detect whether the workpiece 500 is placed in place, whether the positioning is accurate, and whether the surface of the workpiece 500 is damaged or broken.
[0062] The push mechanism 200 is set as a part of the loading device. The push mechanism 200 uses the push block 220 to push the workpiece 500 to the temporary storage table 214 along the inclined direction of the sliding surface 212a. When loading, the operator only needs to place the workpiece 500 on the push block 220. The operation is convenient and simple, eliminating the trouble of manually aligning the workpiece 500.
