DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0034] In order to further explain the technical solutions of the present application, the present application will be described in detail below through specific embodiments.

[0035] Referring toFigures 1-3 Given the unique shape of the clamping block 1, when it is not supported by any additional structure, it may be in a lying or upright state within the vibrating feeding device 2 described below. Taking the conveying direction of the clamping block 1 as the reference, it is in a vertical lying state when it is in the same direction as the conveying direction. Figure 2 a) When perpendicular to the flow direction, it is in a horizontal state. Figure 2 b), and the standing state is further divided into the upright state (b). Figure 3 a, 3b), side-standing position ( Figure 3 (c, 3d) The requirement of this invention is to use a vibrating feeding device 2 to transport the card block 1 in a vertically lying state with its back facing down to the processing mechanism 3.

The input end and output end of the spiral track are respectively connected to the vibrating chassis 21 and the processing mechanism 3. The spiral track includes a first track 22, a second track 23, a third track 24, a fourth track 25 and an output track 26 connected in sequence.

[0038] The input end of the first track 22 is connected to the vibrating chassis 21, and a first lever 27 is provided above the first track 22. The first lever 27 is used to push the stacked card blocks 1 down to the vibrating chassis 21 to achieve the first screening.

[0039] The second track 23 is lower than the first track 22. A step 231 is provided on its inner side (the side facing the center of the vibration chassis 21). The step 231 is flush with the output end of the first track 22. The height difference between the step 231 and the second track 23 can be used to lay down some of the upright blocks 1 into a lying position.

[0040] Above the third track 24, there are a second lever 28 and a third lever 29; the second lever 28 is used to level the block 1 in a non-lying state (such as a standing state, an inclined state, etc.), so that the block 1 passing through the second lever 28 is in a lying state; the third lever 29 has a hook 291 that acts on the end of the block 1 to rotate the horizontally lying block 1 to a vertically lying state.

[0041] The bottom width of the fourth track 25 is smaller than the bottom width of the third track 24, so that the card block 1 in the front-up state falls from the fourth track 25 and falls back to the vibrating base 21 to realize the second screening; the fourth track 25 is provided with a baffle 210 above, and the baffle 210 is used for pushing the card block 1 in the side-standing state to fall to the vibrating base 21 to realize the third screening.

[0042] After the first, second and third screening, the card block 1 in the back-up and vertical lying state is conveyed to the processing mechanism 3 through the output track 26, and is punched and tapped by the processing mechanism 3.

[0043] Through the above scheme, the card block 1 output by the vibrating base 21 is sequentially screened, intercepted and the like by the first track 22, the second track 23, the third track 24 and the fourth track 25, and finally the card block 1 enters the output track 26 in a preset direction (back-up and vertical lying state) and is sent to the punching station of the processing mechanism 3 to be punched and tapped, so that automation is realized, the process of manually placing the card block 1 is saved, and the production efficiency is greatly improved; wherein through the structural design of the spiral track, the vibrating feeding device 2 can quickly and in large quantities output the card block 1 meeting the processing requirement in a preset direction to form a correct placement position, so as to meet the requirement of rapid processing and realize the improvement of production efficiency and quality and the reduction of error rate.
