[0018] Optionally, the feeding seat includes a fixed column and a rotating ring, the fixed column is connected to the surface of the base, the rotating ring is coaxially rotatably connected to the outer peripheral surface of the fixed column, and the multiple guide seats are connected to the surface of the rotating ring at intervals around the axis of the fixed column. The feeding assembly also includes a lifting seat, a support plate and a plurality of positioning plates, the positioning plates correspond to the guide seats one by one, the surface of the positioning plates is spaced apart with guide holes for guide rods to pass through, the surface of the positioning plate is for multiple gears to be stacked, the lifting seat is connected to the surface of the fixed column, the support plate is slidably connected to the surface of the lifting seat facing the manipulator one, the sliding direction of the support plate and the axis of the guide rod are parallel to each other, the surface of the support plate can abut the bottom of the positioning plate and drive the positioning plate to slide along the axis of the guide rod in a direction close to the manipulator one, and the manipulator one clamps the gears stacked on the surface of the positioning plate in turn.
[0019] By adopting the above technical scheme, when the robot grips the gear in the positioning space and places it on the surface of the conveyor belt, the support plate surface abuts against the bottom of the positioning plate, and the support plate slides along the surface of the lifting seat toward the robot, driving the positioning plate to slide along the axis of the guide rod toward the robot, so that the next gear is at the height of the previous gear, thereby facilitating the robot to grip the gear in the positioning space. When multiple gears on the positioning plate are clamped to the surface of the conveyor belt in turn by the robot, the rotating ring is driven to rotate, driving the adjacent guide seats to approach the support plate, thereby realizing automatic feeding of the gears.

[0023] By adopting the above technical solution, when the gear is embedded in the positioning space, the elastic force of the elastic member drives the clamping piston to slide toward the positioning space, and the end of the protruding guide rod of the clamping piston presses against the outer peripheral surface of the gear to form a limit, making it difficult for the gear to shift in the positioning space, thereby further improving the stability of the gear limit in the positioning space.
[0024] Optionally, the clamping assembly further comprises a plurality of air supply pistons, a plurality of positioning pistons and a plurality of elastic members; a plurality of positioning cavities for sliding movement of the positioning pistons are spaced apart on the surface of the guide rod away from the positioning space; the positioning cavities correspond one-to-one with and are connected to the clamping cavities; the sliding direction of the positioning pistons and the sliding direction of the clamping pistons are parallel to each other; the positioning pistons correspond one-to-one with the air supply pistons; an air supply cavity for sliding movement of the air supply pistons is formed on the inner wall of the positioning cavity; one end of the elastic member in the elastic force direction is connected to the inner wall of the air supply cavity; the other end of the elastic member in the elastic force direction is connected to the surface of the air supply piston; The second elastic member has elastic force to drive the air supply piston to slide in the direction close to the positioning cavity, and the end of the air supply piston tends to protrude from the inner wall of the positioning cavity. The surface of the guide rod facing the positioning space is provided with an exhaust flow channel, and the exhaust flow channel connects multiple air supply cavities. When the pressing piston slides in the direction close to the positioning space, it drives the positioning piston to slide in the direction close to the pressing cavity. The surface of the positioning piston abuts against the surface of the air supply piston and drives the air supply piston to slide in the direction close to the air supply cavity, driving the air in the air supply cavity to be discharged from the exhaust flow channel and impact the gear surface in the positioning space.
[0025] By adopting the above technical scheme, when the support plate surface abuts against the bottom of the positioning plate and drives the positioning plate to slide toward the direction close to the manipulator, the clamping effect of the gear on the clamping piston disappears, and the elastic force of the elastic member drives the clamping piston to slide toward the direction close to the positioning space, the air pressure in the clamping chamber is reduced, the clamping chamber is connected to the positioning chamber, and the external air pressure drives the positioning piston to slide toward the clamping chamber. The surface of the positioning piston abuts against the surface of the air supply piston and drives the air supply piston to slide toward the direction close to the air supply chamber, the air pressure in the air supply chamber increases, and the air supply chamber is connected to the exhaust flow channel. The air in the air supply chamber is discharged through the exhaust flow channel and impacts the gear surface in the positioning space, so that impurities are not easily adhered to the outer peripheral surface of the gear, thereby realizing a preliminary self-cleaning action on the gear surface.
