Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of profile processing, and in particular to a rod storage transmission device and a working method. Background Art

[0002] After the plastic profiles are processed initially to obtain rods, they are placed on a material cart and transported to subsequent workstations via the material cart. However, after the rods of various specifications are stacked on the material cart, they need to be sorted manually or by a robot, and it is difficult to achieve on-demand retrieval. This method has the problems of low efficiency and difficulty in accurate on-demand retrieval in the sorting and retrieval links. To solve the above problems, there is a solution to use an array-type material warehouse for temporary storage, but due to the different lengths of the rods, it is difficult to accurately transfer them from the preliminary processing production line to the material warehouse, which limits the effective implementation of the array-type material warehouse temporary storage solution. Although industrial robots can accurately complete the grasping and transfer actions, due to their large operating range and high operating costs, their actual application in the temporary storage and transfer of plastic profile rods will be affected by cost factors. Large-scale use and promotion, cannot well meet the needs of enterprises for cost control and efficient production.

[0003] A Chinese patent (publication number CN 116161366 A, publication date 20230526) discloses a drawer-type storage warehouse for complete profiles and a door and window production line. The drawer-type storage warehouse for complete profiles includes a frame, on which multiple layers of horizontally arranged guide rails are provided, and a storage tray is slidably installed on each layer of the guide rails. There is no automatic driving mechanism on the storage tray, and a plurality of discharge troughs are provided on the storage tray. The plurality of discharge troughs are arranged horizontally at intervals, and a positioning structure is provided in the moving direction of the storage tray; corresponding input devices and output devices are also configured, thereby saving width space occupation, and a robot can be used to accurately grab the profiles placed thereon, However, when an industrial robot is used for operation, the industrial robot is still required to perform individual grasping and loading. Although a multi-station clamp can be used to clamp multiple materials at the same time, it is inconvenient to place the multiple materials on different discharge troughs after clamping. When a certain material is placed alone, other materials are likely to interfere with other components of the frame, affecting its placement action; at the same time, it will also affect the range of movement of the industrial robot. For profile rods with a large number of specifications and types in the same batch, clamping different materials requires configuring corresponding action paths for the industrial robot, which results in a large amount of design work. In addition, due to the large number of specifications and types of profile rods, when the logic of loading materials from one side of the material warehouse and temporarily storing them in the storage grid and taking materials from the other side is adopted, the longer rods are adapted to the depth of the storage grid of the material warehouse, which can meet the requirements of grasping during loading and taking materials. However, for shorter material rods, after loading, the distance between the end and the taking side is large, and traditional rod clamps are inconvenient to grasp. Although a slender clamp is used to reach into the storage grid of the material warehouse to grasp shorter material rods, the stability and reliability of the grasping are poor, which will also have an adverse effect on the conveying accuracy of subsequent processing. Summary of the invention

A conveying mechanism is used to set up multiple parallel conveying channels, which can transfer and convey multiple rods at the same time. The push rod of the pushing mechanism can fall into any conveying channel and push the rods, thereby realizing automatic conveying and output of the rods, reducing the tedious operations of single grasping and loading of industrial robots, and avoiding the problem of material interference when using multi-station clamps.

[0005] The first object of the present invention is to provide a rod storage transmission device, which adopts the following scheme: include: A rack is provided with a vertically distributed support frame; The conveying assembly includes a carrier frame, a conveying mechanism and a pushing mechanism. The carrier frame is vertically slidably matched with the support frame. The carrier frame is installed with the conveying mechanism through a carrier platform on one side. The conveying mechanism is provided with multiple parallel conveying channels; the pushing mechanism is provided with a three-axis moving part and a push rod. The push rod is installed on the carrier frame through the three-axis moving part and suspended above the conveying channel. The end of the push rod can fall into any conveying channel and extend out of the conveying channel along the conveying channel to push the rod outside the conveying channel.

[0006] Furthermore, the plurality of parallel conveying channels are arranged in sequence and at intervals, and the pushing mechanism is provided with a translation mechanism for driving a push rod to move along the arrangement direction, so that the push rod moves to above any conveying channel.

[0007] Furthermore, the pushing mechanism is also provided with a propulsion mechanism and a lifting mechanism, the translation mechanism is installed on the carrier, the propulsion mechanism is installed on the translation mechanism, and the lifting mechanism is installed on the propulsion mechanism, together forming a three-axis moving part, the push rod is installed at the output end of the lifting mechanism, and the running direction of the propulsion mechanism is parallel to the conveying channel.

[0008] Furthermore, the push rod is distributed parallel to the conveying channel, and a push plate is connected to the pushing end of the push rod.

[0009] Furthermore, the conveying mechanism includes a conveyor belt, a clamping mechanism and side plates. Multiple conveyor belts are respectively installed on the supporting platform. Side plates are respectively provided on both sides of each conveyor belt. A conveying channel with an open top is formed between the side plates and the top surface of the conveyor belt. A clamping mechanism is mounted at one end of the conveying channel. A clamping wheel facing the top surface of the conveyor belt is provided at the end of the clamping mechanism to cooperate with the conveyor belt to clamp and convey the rod.

[0010] Furthermore, the conveyor belt is installed on the supporting platform through a conveyor frame, the conveyor frame and the supporting platform are slidably matched, and the sliding direction is parallel to the direction of the conveying channel. A pushing frame element is connected between the conveyor frame and the supporting platform, and the pushing frame element is configured to drive the conveyor frame and one end of the corresponding conveying channel to extend to connect to an external material warehouse.

[0011] Furthermore, a lifting and lowering guide rail is installed on the support frame, the bearing frame cooperates with the lifting and lowering guide rail, a lifting and lowering driving element is installed on the support frame, and the output end of the lifting and lowering driving element is connected to the bearing frame through a pulley block and a transmission cable.

[0012] Furthermore, the frame runs on a track, a chain arranged along the distribution direction of the track is provided on the track, a plurality of sprockets are provided on the frame, one end of the chain is fixed to the track, and the other end is fixed to the track after sequentially cooperating with a plurality of sprockets, a travel drive element is installed on the frame, and the travel drive element is connected to the sprocket to drive the frame to run along the track through the sprocket cooperating with the chain.

[0013] The second object of the present invention is to provide a working method of a rod storage and transmission device, using the rod storage and transmission device as described in the first object, comprising: Multiple conveying channels receive the rods processed upstream respectively, and the rods are temporarily stored in the conveying channels after loading; Adjusting the conveying assembly according to the target storage position of the received rods in the material warehouse; The conveying assembly drives the rod to adjust its position, so that one of the conveying channels is adjusted to dock with the target storage position. The conveying channel runs to make the rod enter the material warehouse from the conveying channel. The push rod falls into the conveying channel and then extends out of the conveying channel to push the rod entering the material warehouse, so that the rod is in place in the material warehouse. Repeat this action so that the rods in all conveying channels are conveyed to the material warehouse and in place. The conveying assembly is reset and waits for the next batch of rods to be loaded.

[0014] Furthermore, the conveying channel is made to correspond to the target storage position by adjusting the position of the frame and the height of the carrier, and the push rod is made to pass through the conveying channel by adjusting the position of the push rod.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages and positive effects: In view of the current problem of low efficiency and easy interference when storing profile rods in the material warehouse, a conveying mechanism is used to set up multiple parallel conveying channels, which can transfer and convey multiple rods at the same time. The push rod of the pushing mechanism can fall into any conveying channel and push the rods, realizing the automatic conveying and output of the rods, reducing the tedious operations of single grasping and loading of industrial robots, and avoiding material interference problems when using multi-station fixtures.

[0016] The vertically distributed support frame is installed on the frame, and the carrier frame slides vertically to fit the support frame. The height can be adjusted according to the depth of the material storage grid and the length of the material rod, so that the conveying mechanism can be closer to the material storage side, which is convenient for grabbing and conveying short material rods. In addition, the structural design of the conveying mechanism itself, such as the coordination of the conveyor belt, the clamping mechanism and the side plate, can stably clamp and convey the rods. Compared with traditional slender clamps, it greatly improves the stability and reliability of grabbing and conveying short material rods, thereby ensuring the conveying accuracy of subsequent processing.

[0017] Since the rear end of the short material rod is far from the material picking side after loading, the traditional rod clamp cannot reach it due to size limitations, and the slender clamp has stability and reliability issues. The conveying component actively conveys the rod to a position close to the material picking side, which can effectively avoid the inconvenience of grabbing caused by the structure and size of the traditional clamp, creating favorable conditions for subsequent grabbing. The rod is accurately pushed into place when entering the material warehouse, and the clamp can grab it in a more stable posture, which can ensure that the rod always maintains the correct position and posture during the subsequent conveying process, and will not cause conveying deviations due to previous grabbing problems, thereby improving the conveying accuracy of the entire processing process and ensuring product quality and production efficiency.

[0018] For some longer rods, the push rod has a smaller extension amount. After the rod enters the material warehouse, the far end can approach the material picking side to meet the demand. For some shorter rods, the length of the push rod's extension conveying channel is increased so that the push rod can probe into the storage grid of the material warehouse, and further push and adjust the position of the rod, so that the rod can be further moved in the storage grid to a position that is convenient for grabbing from the material picking side, to ensure that the placement of the rod in the material warehouse meets the storage requirements. Flexible push rod position adjustment meets such needs and further enhances the practicability and adaptability of the device. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0025] Example 1 In a typical embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, a rod storage and transmission device is provided.

[0026] The existing technology relies on the single grasping and loading of industrial robots, which is a cumbersome process and inefficient. For profile rods of various specifications and types, a large number of complex motion paths need to be designed for the industrial robot, and the design workload is large. Although a multi-station clamp can clamp multiple materials at the same time, when placing the materials in different discharge troughs, other materials are likely to interfere with other components of the frame 1, affecting the placement action and limiting the range of motion of the industrial robot. Based on this, the present embodiment provides a rod storage transmission device, which adopts a conveying mechanism to set up multiple parallel conveying channels 13, which can transport and convey multiple rods at the same time. The push rod 6 of the pushing mechanism can fall into any conveying channel 13 and push the rod, realizing the automatic conveying and output of the rod, reducing the cumbersome operation of the industrial robot's single grasping and loading, and avoiding the problem of material interference when using a multi-station clamp.

[0027] like Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, the rod storage transmission device mainly includes a frame 1 and a conveying assembly. The frame 1 is installed with a vertically distributed support frame 9; the conveying assembly includes a bearing frame 5, a conveying mechanism and a pushing mechanism. The bearing frame 5 is slidably matched with the support frame 9 in the vertical direction. The bearing frame 5 is installed with the conveying mechanism through a bearing platform 16 on one side. The conveying mechanism is provided with a plurality of parallel conveying channels 13; the pushing mechanism is provided with a three-axis moving part and a push rod 6. The push rod 6 is installed on the bearing frame 5 through the three-axis moving part and is suspended above the conveying channel 13.

[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, the frame 1 serves as the basic supporting structure of the entire device, and the support frame 9 is vertically distributed and installed on the frame 1, providing a vertical sliding track 3 for the supporting frame 5, so as to realize precise adjustment of the height of the supporting frame 5, so that the conveying component can connect to material warehouses of different heights and meet the conveying requirements of rods of different lengths, thereby improving the versatility and applicability of the device.

[0029] The carrier frame 5 is slidably matched with the support frame 9 in the vertical direction, and the carrier frame 5 is the installation carrier of the conveying mechanism and the pushing mechanism. It is connected to the support frame 9 through the lifting guide rail 25, and can be accurately lifted and lowered in the vertical direction under the action of the lifting drive element 19, thereby driving the conveying mechanism and the pushing mechanism installed thereon to adjust the height, so as to achieve accurate docking with different height positions of the material warehouse.

[0030] The three-axis moving part gives the push rod 6 a full range of motion capabilities, enabling it to accurately push rods at different positions. The push rod 6 is installed on the carrier 5 through the three-axis moving part and suspended above the conveying channel 13. Its end serves as a pushing end. Under the control of the three-axis moving part, it can fall into any conveying channel 13 and extend out of the conveying channel 13 along the conveying channel 13 to push the rods entering the material warehouse, ensuring that the rods are accurately positioned in the material warehouse.

[0031] The conveying mechanism is provided with multiple parallel conveying channels 13, which can simultaneously transport multiple rods, changing the previous way of industrial robots to grasp one by one, and greatly improving the efficiency of material transportation. The push rod 6 of the pushing mechanism can be flexibly moved through the three-axis moving parts, and can fall into any conveying channel 13 and push the rods, realizing the automatic conveying and output of the rods. The industrial robot no longer needs to perform single grasping and loading operations, which reduces its workload, improves the overall operating efficiency, and also reduces the workload of designing the motion path for the industrial robot.

[0032] Through the coordinated work of the conveying mechanism and the pushing mechanism, the conveying and placing process of the material is transformed from the complex operation relying on the multi-station clamp of the industrial robot to the automatic conveying and pushing process. The material is pushed by the push rod 6 in the conveying channel 13, avoiding the interference problem between the materials and between the materials and the components of the frame 1 when using the multi-station clamp, and ensuring the smooth progress of the material conveying and placing process.

[0033] A vertically distributed support frame 9 is installed on the frame 1, and the carrying frame 5 is vertically slidably matched with the support frame 9, so that the conveying component can adjust the vertical position according to the height of the material warehouse and the length of the material rod, so that the conveying mechanism is closer to the material picking side of the material warehouse, shortening the distance between the short material rod and the material picking side, which is convenient for subsequent gripping of the clamp.

[0034] like Figure 2 As shown, multiple parallel conveying channels 13 are arranged in sequence, and the pushing mechanism is provided with a translation mechanism 7 that drives the push rod 6 to move along the arrangement direction, so that the push rod 6 can be accurately moved to the top of any conveying channel 13. In actual operation, when a rod in any conveying channel 13 needs to be pushed, the push rod 6 can quickly reach the specified position, such as Figure 2 As shown, four conveying channels 13 are arranged in sequence and spaced apart, and a push rod 6 is driven to move by a three-axis moving part to achieve one-to-four, thereby improving the working flexibility and applicability of the pushing mechanism and ensuring that the rods of each conveying channel 13 can be pushed in a timely and effective manner.

[0035] like Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, the propulsion mechanism 21 is installed on the translation mechanism 7, and the lifting mechanism 8 is installed on the propulsion mechanism 21, which together with the translation mechanism 7 form a three-axis motion part, realizing the omnidirectional motion ability of the push rod 6. The lifting mechanism 8 can control the push rod 6 to move up and down so that it can accurately fall into the conveying channel 13, and the propulsion mechanism 21 can make the push rod 6 move along the conveying channel 13 to realize the pushing of the rod. Through the coordinated movement of these three directions, the push rod 6 can adapt to the pushing requirements of rods at different heights and positions, further improving the adaptability of the conveying device to complex working conditions.

[0036] In this embodiment, the lifting mechanism 8 can be realized by using a cylinder in conjunction with a slide rail guide, the propulsion mechanism 21 cooperates with the propulsion guide slide rail 24 through a rotary drive belt, and the lifting mechanism 8 slides with the propulsion guide slide rail 24 to stabilize the position of the lifting mechanism 8. The output end of the rotary drive belt is connected to the lifting mechanism 8, thereby driving the lifting mechanism 8 to move along the propulsion guide slide rail 24 to achieve the propulsion action of the push rod 6. The translation mechanism 7 can use a lead screw slider mechanism in conjunction with a drive motor, or a servo cylinder to achieve position adjustment of the propulsion mechanism 21 and the lifting mechanism 8, so that the push rod 6 can move to the top of the conveying channel 13 of the required push rod.

[0037] The push rod 6 is arranged parallel to the conveying channel 13, and the pushing end is connected with a push plate 12. The push plate 12 increases the contact area between the push rod 6 and the rod, and can apply a more uniform thrust when pushing the rod, avoiding the rod from deflecting or tipping during the pushing process due to uneven force, thereby ensuring the stability and accuracy of the rod pushing and ensuring that the rod can be smoothly and steadily conveyed to the target position.

[0038] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the conveying mechanism is composed of a conveyor belt 18, a clamping mechanism 14 and a side plate 17. A plurality of conveyor belts 18 are respectively installed on the bearing platform 16. The side plates 17 on both sides of each conveyor belt 18 and the top surface of the conveyor belt 18 form a conveying channel 13 with an open top, which not only provides a stable conveying path for the rods, but also facilitates the placement and removal of the rods. At the same time, the side plates 17 can prevent the rods from lateral displacement during the conveying process, thereby ensuring the stability of the conveying process.

[0039] like Figure 1 As shown, a clamping mechanism 14 is provided at one end of the conveying channel 13, and a clamping wheel 15 at the end thereof faces the top surface of the conveying belt 18, and cooperates with the conveying belt 18 to clamp and convey the rod. The clamping wheel 15 can ensure stable clamping of the rod by adjusting the pressure according to the size and weight of the rod, and prevent the rod from jumping or sliding due to vibration or other external forces during the conveying process, further improving the reliability of the conveying process, and ensuring that the rod can be accurately and stably conveyed to the target position.

[0040] like Figure 3 As shown, the conveyor belt 18 is installed on the bearing platform 16 through the conveyor frame 22, and the conveyor frame 22 and the bearing platform 16 are slidably matched. The sliding matching position can adopt the structure of the slide rail matching the slider, and the sliding direction is parallel to the direction of the conveying channel 13. A push frame element 23 is connected between the conveyor frame 22 and the bearing platform 16, and the push frame element 23 is configured to drive the conveyor frame 22 and one end of the corresponding conveying channel 13 to extend to dock with the external material warehouse. The push frame element 23 can adopt a linear telescopic mechanism, such as a cylinder, an oil cylinder, an electric cylinder, etc. The conveyor frame 22 corresponding to each conveying channel 13 is respectively matched with a corresponding push frame element 23, so that each conveying channel 13 can move independently and adjust its position. The conveying mechanism can be flexibly adjusted according to the position and actual working conditions of the external material warehouse, ensuring that the docking between the conveying channel 13 and the material warehouse is tight and accurate, reducing the transition distance and deviation of the material during the conveying process, and improving the efficiency and accuracy of material transportation.

[0041] In order to realize the vertical movement of the carrier 5, as Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, a lifting and lowering guide rail 25 is installed on the support frame 9, and the carrier frame 5 cooperates with it, and the lifting and lowering driving element 19 is connected to the carrier frame 5 through a pulley block and a transmission rope 20. The lifting and lowering driving element 19, the pulley block, the transmission rope 20 and the carrier frame 5 together constitute the load-bearing lifting and lowering mechanism 10. The pulley block can adopt the method of combining a movable pulley with a fixed pulley, so that its stroke can meet the needs of the material warehouse, and the carrier frame 5 can perform precise vertical movement on the support frame 9.

[0042] like Figure 3 As shown, the pulley block is matched with a synchronous pulley through a transmission rod, and the synchronous pulley is matched with a synchronous belt 11 to form a synchronous structure, so that the two sides of the carrier 5 can slide synchronously to avoid problems such as tilting and offset. In practical applications, the height of the carrier 5 can be flexibly adjusted according to the height of the material warehouse and the conveying requirements of rods of different lengths, so that the conveying mechanism can better dock with the material warehouse, and at the same time, it is convenient to convey materials at different heights, thereby improving the versatility of the entire device.

[0043] In addition, a slider is provided on the carrier frame 5 to cooperate with the lifting and lowering guide rail 25. The lifting and lowering driving element 19 can adopt a linear driving element such as an electric cylinder, a pneumatic cylinder, etc., and the end is connected to a movable pulley. The movable pulley cooperates with the transmission rope 20 to drive the lifting and lowering movement of the carrier frame 5 through the lifting and lowering movement of the lifting and lowering driving element 19.

[0044] like Figure 4As shown, the frame 1 runs on the track 3, the track 3 is provided with a chain 2 arranged along the distribution direction of the track 3, the frame 1 is provided with a plurality of sprockets 4, one end of the chain 2 is fixed to the track 3, and the other end is fixed to the track 3 after sequentially cooperating with the plurality of sprockets 4, a travel drive element is installed on the frame 1, and the travel drive element is connected to the sprocket 4, so as to drive the frame 1 to run along the track 3 through the sprocket 4 and the chain 2.

[0045] The frame 1 runs on the track 3, the chain 2 on the track 3 cooperates with the sprocket 4 on the frame 1, and the travel drive element is connected to the sprocket 4 to drive the frame 1 to run along the track 3. Specifically, each chain 2 is matched with at least three sprockets 4, and the chain 2 passes through the three sprockets 4 in sequence to form a "X"-shaped track, such as Figure 4 As shown, after the chain 2 cooperates with the sprocket 4, the chain 2 can be tightened, so that the entire device can be flexibly moved in the horizontal direction, which is convenient for switching between material warehouses at different locations, or adjusting the position of the device according to the layout on the production line.

[0046] In addition, the frame 1 is provided with rollers adapted to the track 3, so that the frame 1 can run stably along the track 3. The transmission structure of the chain 2 and the sprocket 4 can provide vertical pressure for the frame 1. After arranging multiple chains 2 and respectively cooperating with the sprockets 4, the frame 1 can be pressed onto the track 3 to run, thereby preventing the upper frame 1, the support frame 9 and the conveying assembly from tilting.

[0047] Example 2 In another typical embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, a working method of a rod storage and transmission device is provided, using the rod storage and transmission device as in Example 1.

[0048] The multiple conveying channels 13 receive the rods processed upstream respectively, and the rods are temporarily stored in the conveying channels 13 after loading; Adjusting the conveying assembly according to the target storage position of the received rods in the material warehouse; The conveying assembly drives the rod to adjust its position, so that one of the conveying channels 13 is adjusted to dock with the target storage position. The conveying channel 13 operates to allow the rod to enter the material warehouse from the conveying channel 13. The push rod 6 falls into the conveying channel 13 and then extends out of the conveying channel 13 to push the rod entering the material warehouse, so that the rod is in place in the material warehouse. Repeat this action, so that the rods in all the conveying channels 13 are conveyed to the material warehouse and in place. The conveying assembly is reset and waits for the next batch of rods to be loaded.

[0049] Specifically, the working method of the rod storage transmission device is described in detail.

[0050] The multiple conveying channels 13 receive the rods processed upstream respectively, which takes advantage of the multiple parallel conveying channels 13 of the device. Multiple rods can be processed at the same time, which improves the efficiency of material receiving. After loading, the rods are temporarily stored in the conveying channel 13, which is ready for the subsequent orderly storage operation, avoiding the chaotic stacking of materials and ensuring the orderliness of materials in the circulation process.

[0051] The conveying components are adjusted according to the target storage position of the received rods in the material warehouse, which reflects the accuracy and intelligence of the entire working method. Through the analysis of the target storage position, the conveying components can be adjusted in a targeted manner to ensure that each rod can be accurately transported to the designated position in the material warehouse, optimize the storage layout of the material warehouse, and facilitate the subsequent search, retrieval and management of materials.

[0052] The conveying assembly drives the rod to adjust its position, so that one of the conveying channels 13 is adjusted to dock with the target storage position, ensuring that the rod can smoothly enter the material warehouse. The conveying channel 13 runs to allow the rod to enter the material warehouse, and then the push rod 6 falls into the conveying channel 13 and extends out of the conveying channel 13 to push the rod, ensuring that the rod is accurately positioned in the material warehouse. Repeating this action will transport all the rods in the conveying channels 13 to the material warehouse and position them, ensuring the accuracy and stability of the storage operation.

[0053] The conveying channel 13 is made to correspond to the target storage position by adjusting the position of the frame 1. Since the frame 1 runs on the track 3, the chain 2 on the track 3 cooperates with the sprocket 4 on the frame 1. The travel drive element controls the rotation of the sprocket 4 to drive the frame 1 to run along the track 3, so that the device can flexibly switch between material warehouses at different positions, or according to the complex layout requirements on the production line, the conveying channel 13 can be accurately moved to a position horizontally aligned with the target storage position.

[0054] In a large-scale door and window production workshop, the material warehouse has a large capacity, and different areas store rods of different types and specifications. By adjusting the position of the rack 1, the rod storage transmission device can respond quickly to ensure that the conveying channel 13 is accurately connected with the target storage position in each area, thereby improving the versatility of the device and its adaptability to diversified production environments.

[0055] The support frame 9 is provided with a lifting and lowering guide rail 25, the carrier frame 5 cooperates with the lifting and lowering guide rail 25, and the lifting and lowering driving element 19 is connected to the carrier frame 5 through a pulley block and a transmission rope 20, so that the carrier frame 5 can realize precise vertical movement on the support frame 9. When facing material warehouses of different heights, or when it is necessary to transport rods to target storage positions of different heights in the material warehouse, the transport channel 13 can be adjusted to a suitable height according to actual needs to ensure that the rods can smoothly and accurately enter the target storage position in the material warehouse, avoiding transport difficulties or errors caused by height mismatch, and further improving the accuracy and reliability of the transport process.

[0056] Adjust the position of the push rod 6 so that the push rod 6 can pass through the conveying channel 13, ensuring that the rod is accurately positioned in the material warehouse. The push rod 6 is installed on the carrier 5 through a three-axis moving part composed of a translation mechanism 7, a propulsion mechanism 21 and a lifting mechanism 8. The translation mechanism 7 can move the push rod 6 to the top of any conveying channel 13 along the arrangement direction of the conveying channel 13, and the lifting mechanism 8 controls the push rod 6 to move up and down so that it can fall into the conveying channel 13. The propulsion mechanism 21 is responsible for allowing the push rod 6 to advance along the direction of the conveying channel 13 and pass through the conveying channel 13, and push the rod entering the material warehouse, so that the push rod 6 can flexibly adjust its own position according to the position of the rod in different conveying channels 13 and the specific conditions of the target storage position in the material warehouse, accurately apply thrust to the rod, and ensure that the rod can be positioned in the material warehouse according to the predetermined path, avoiding the problem of rod pushing deviation or failure to push due to improper position of the push rod 6, and ensuring the smooth progress of the entire rod storage process.

[0057] Rods of different specifications and lengths have different requirements for the position of the push rod 6 during transportation and storage. By flexibly adjusting the position of the push rod 6, the device can adapt to various rod types and complex working conditions. Whether it is a longer profile rod or a shorter material rod, the push rod 6 can push it at a suitable position, which improves the device's ability to handle different materials. For some longer rods, the push rod 6 has a smaller protrusion amount. After the rod enters the material warehouse, the far end can approach the material-collecting side to meet the needs; for some shorter rods, the length of the protruding conveying channel 13 of the push rod 6 is increased, so that the push rod 6 can probe into the storage grid of the material warehouse, and further push the adjustment of the rod position, so that the rod is further moved in the storage grid to a position that is convenient for grabbing from the material-collecting side, so as to ensure that the placement of the rod in the material warehouse meets the storage requirements. The flexible position adjustment of the push rod 6 meets such needs and further enhances the practicality and adaptability of the device.
