[0067] Reference Figure 8 and Fig. 9 As shown, the power mechanism 2 includes a main body 21, a lifting assembly 22, a material box bracket 23 and a driving assembly 24.

[0069] In this embodiment, the push rod motor 242 is connected to the transition floating block 244, and the transition floating block 244 is loosely matched with the connecting block 245, so as to prevent the output shaft of the push rod motor 242 from being subjected to radial force, thereby preventing the push rod motor 242 from being damaged due to overload. Because, if there is no transition floating block, but the push rod motor is directly connected to the connecting block, when the connecting block is deflected during the movement, the output shaft of the push rod motor directly connected to the connecting block will also be deflected.

[0070] Further, the toggle block 240 includes a fixed portion 240a and a clamping portion 240b, the fixed portion 240a is mounted on the bearing seat 24b, the clamping portion 240b is connected to the fixed portion 240a, and the clamping portion 240b is a plate-like structure, the clamping portion 240b has a first surface, a second surface, a first side surface, a second side surface and an end portion, the first surface and the second surface are arranged opposite to each other, the first side surface and the second side surface are arranged opposite to each other, the end portion is connected to the first surface, the second surface, the first side surface and the second side surface respectively, and the cross section of the end portion is conical.

The toggle lever photoelectric sensor 24f is connected to the connecting plate 246, and is used to detect the position of the toggle lever power receiving member 121. In this embodiment, when the position of the first baffle 24e corresponds to the position of the toggle block position sensor 24d, the toggle block position sensor 24d generates a trigger signal to confirm that the toggle block 240 is in the third position (the first surface and the second surface of the engaging portion are basically parallel to the horizontal plane) at this time; when the lever photoelectric sensor 24f generates a trigger signal, it is confirmed that the lever power receiving component 121 is in the first position (the line connecting the two lever shafts 121b intersects with the horizontal plane) at this time, otherwise it is confirmed that the lever power receiving component 121 is in the second position (the line connecting the two lever shafts 121b is basically parallel to the horizontal plane).

[0072] In some embodiments, the toggle block position sensor 24 d may be connected to the fixing portion 240 a , and the first barrier piece 24 e may be connected to the connecting plate 246 .

Among them, the toggle block position sensor 24d, the toggle lever photoelectric sensor 24f and the photoelectric sensor 24g can be photoelectric sensors (photoelectric switches), and the detection principle of the photoelectric sensor is to use the blocking or reflection of the light beam by the detected object, and the synchronous circuit selects the circuit to detect the presence or absence of the object.

[0074] In specific implementation, the position of the photoelectric sensor 24g on the photoelectric adjustment block 24i is adjusted according to the moving distance required for the toggle block 240, that is, the distance between the photoelectric sensor 24g and the second baffle 24h in the initial state is adjusted. When the push rod motor 242 drives the toggle block 240 to move in the first direction, the connecting plate 246 drives the second baffle 24h to move in the first direction. When the position of the second baffle 24h corresponds to the position of the photoelectric sensor 24g, the photoelectric sensor 24g generates a trigger signal to confirm that the toggle block 240 has moved the preset distance.

[0075] In some examples, the photoelectric sensor 24g may be connected to the connecting plate 246, and the second baffle 24h may be movably connected to the photoelectric adjustment block 24i.

[0077] Continue to refer to Figure 8 As shown, in order to detect the lifting height of the material box bracket 23, the power mechanism 2 also includes a lifting sensor 25a and a lifting sensor sheet 25b. The lifting sensor 25a is arranged on the main body 21, and the lifting sensor sheet 25b is arranged on the material box bracket 23. When the material box bracket 23 moves to make the position of the lifting sensor sheet 25b correspond to the position of the lifting sensor 25a, the lifting sensor 25a generates a trigger signal, which confirms that the material box bracket 23 has risen to the predetermined position.

[0078] In some embodiments, the driving member may be a lifting motor 221, and the transmission member may be a screw rod, so that the lifting motor 221 drives the screw rod to rotate, thereby driving the material box bracket 23 threadably connected to the screw rod to perform lifting and lowering movements.

[0079] In other embodiments, the driving member is a motor, and the transmission member may also be a sprocket and a chain. The motor is connected to the sprocket via a reducer, the sprocket is meshed with the chain, and the chain is connected to the material box bracket 23. When the motor and the reducer drive the sprocket to rotate, the chain moves, thereby driving the material box bracket 23 connected to the chain to move. Of course, the driving component may also be other driving components such as a linear module and a cylinder, which may be selected according to actual conditions.

[0080] Continue to refer to Fig. 9As shown, the power mechanism 2 also includes a positioning pin 25, an anti-collision plate 26, a reinforcement block 27, a material collection and release guide device 28 and an electric control box 29. The positioning pin 25 is arranged on the material box bracket 23, and is used to cooperate with the positioning hole in the positioning block 16 to position the material box 1. The anti-collision plate 26 is connected to the material box bracket 23. When the anti-collision plate 26 hits an object, the power mechanism 2 stops running and alarms. The material collection and release guide device 28 is connected to the main body 21, and the material collection and release guide device 28 and the drive assembly 24 are respectively located on both sides of the main body 21. The material collection and release guide device 28 can guide the material sheet conveyed into the material box 1 or the material sheet output from the material box 1. The electric control box 29 is arranged on the main body 21, and the electric control box 29 is connected to the lifting assembly 22, the drive assembly 24 and the anti-collision plate 26, and is used to control the operation of the lifting assembly 22 and the drive assembly 24. There are two reinforcing blocks 27, which are respectively arranged on the material box bracket 23 and located on both sides of the positioning pin 25. When the material box 1 is assembled on the material box bracket 23, the positioning block 16 is sleeved on the positioning pin 25, and the material box 1 is limited by the two reinforcing blocks 27 to prevent the material box 1 from swinging left and right.

[0081] Continue to refer to Figure 4 As shown, the bearing mechanism 3 includes a support frame 31, a plurality of support bearings 33 and a plurality of limit blocks 32. The plurality of support bearings 33 are respectively arranged on the upper surface of the support frame 31 for supporting the material box 1. The plurality of limit blocks 32 are respectively arranged on the upper surface of the support frame 31 for limiting the position of the material box 1.

[0082] In actual application scenarios, when loading materials, the power mechanism 2 runs to the carrying mechanism 3 and makes the material box bracket 23 located in the carrying mechanism 3, and then drives the material box bracket 23 to rise to a certain height through the lifting component 22, so that the material box bracket 23 lifts the material box 1, and then the power mechanism 2 drives the material box 1 to run to the material storage and release position of the processing platform. At this time, the lifting component 22 drives the material box bracket 23 to perform a lifting movement to drive the material box 1 to perform a lifting movement, so that the storage bin to be discharged in the material box 1 corresponds to the driving component 24, that is, the toggle block 240 corresponds to the toggle lever power receiving member 121 in height; then the position of the toggle lever power receiving member 121 is detected by the toggle lever photoelectric sensor 24f. When the toggle lever photoelectric sensor 24f does not generate a trigger signal, it is confirmed that the toggle lever power receiving member 121 is in the first position. At this time, the toggle block 24 is directly driven by the push rod motor 242. 0 moves along the first direction toward the direction close to the lever power receiving member 121, so that the engaging portion 240b of the toggle block 240 extends into between the two lever shafts 121b of the lever power receiving member 121, and when the photoelectric sensor 24g generates a trigger signal, the push rod motor 242 stops driving the toggle block 240 to move; when the lever photoelectric sensor 24f generates a trigger signal, it is confirmed that the lever power receiving member 121 is in the second position. At this time, the toggle block is first driven by the paddle motor 243 to rotate 90°, and then the push rod motor 242 drives the toggle block 240 to move along the first direction toward the direction close to the lever power receiving member 121, so that the engaging portion 240b of the toggle block 240 extends into between the two lever shafts 121b of the lever power receiving member 121, and when the photoelectric sensor 24g generates a trigger signal, the push rod motor 242 stops driving the toggle block 240 to move. After the toggle block 240 stops moving in the first direction, the paddle motor 243 drives the toggle block 240 to rotate, so that the toggle block 240 engages with the lever power receiving member 121 and drives the lever power receiving member 121 to rotate, thereby driving the belt 125 and the sheet material placed on the upper surface of the belt 125 to move, so as to achieve the loading of the sheet material. After the storage bin of the corresponding layer is loaded with materials, the push rod motor 242 drives the toggle block 240 to move in the first direction away from the lever power receiving member 121, so that the toggle block 240 is separated from the lever power receiving member 121. At this time, if the lever photoelectric sensor 24f does not generate a trigger signal, it is confirmed that the toggle block 240 is not in the third position, and the paddle motor 243 needs to drive the toggle block 240 to rotate until the lever photoelectric sensor 24f generates a trigger signal, that is, the toggle block 240 is in the third position. The unloading process is basically the same as the loading process, except that during unloading, the belt 125 is driven by the paddle motor 243 to rotate in the opposite direction to that during loading.

When the lever power receiving member 121 is in the second position, the paddle motor 243 controls the lever block 240 to rotate a preset angle (for example, 90°), and then drives the lever block 240 to move a preset distance along the first direction toward the lever power receiving member 121 through the push rod motor 242; and then drives the lever block 240 to rotate through the paddle motor 243, so that the lever block 240 engages with the lever power receiving member 121. Furthermore, before the push rod motor 242 drives the toggle block 240 to move a preset distance along the first direction toward the toggle power receiving member 121, it also includes: adjusting the distance between the photoelectric sensor 24g and the second baffle plate 24h so that the distance between the photoelectric sensor 24g and the second baffle plate 24h is a preset distance; after adjusting the distance between the photoelectric sensor 24g and the second baffle plate 24h, the push rod motor 242 drives the toggle block 240 to move along the first direction toward the toggle power receiving member 121, and when the photoelectric sensor 24g generates a trigger signal, the toggle block 240 is controlled to stop moving.

[0087] S13, controlling the toggle block to rotate so that the sheet material stored in the material box is transported to the processing platform, or the sheet material located on the processing platform is transported to the material box.
