Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of automatic feeding, and in particular to an automatic feeding device, corner cutting and forming equipment and a feeding method thereof. Background Art

[0002] In the field of electronic component production, the pin length of components (such as capacitors) needs to be pre-processed with the help of angle cutting and forming equipment according to actual use requirements. Traditional angle cutting and forming equipment mainly relies on inclined plane transfer devices to load materials. The operation process of this loading method is: when the equipment is in standby mode, the operator manually performs the material tube loading and replenishment operation, and starts the equipment after completion; after the equipment processing is completed, the operator manually removes the empty material tube again, and then starts the next round of material loading cycle.

[0003] This traditional feeding method has many disadvantages. First, the corner cutting and forming equipment needs to be frequently stopped, presenting an intermittent production state, resulting in extremely low production efficiency and unable to meet the needs of modern efficient production. Second, the operation method of manually feeding the material tubes one by one and manually recovering the empty material tubes not only consumes a lot of manpower and time, but also the instability of manual operation is easy to introduce errors, which has an adverse effect on the continuity and stability of production.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to improve the feeding method of the existing corner shearing and forming equipment to overcome the defects of the prior art. Summary of the invention

[0005] In order to overcome the problems existing in the related art, one of the purposes of the present invention is to provide an automatic loading device, which can be used for automatic loading of components, and after the loading is completed, the loading clamp can move to a second state, so that the material tube is detached from the loading clamp, thereby achieving the purpose of automatic recovery of the empty material tube, which can save manpower for recovering the material tube and improve production efficiency.

[0006] An automatic feeding device, comprising:

[0007] The supporting frame comprises a first bracket and a second bracket, wherein the second bracket is arranged on one side of the first bracket;

[0008] A feeding assembly, the feeding assembly comprising a feeding clamp and a feeding pipe, the feeding clamp is movably arranged on the first bracket, a first discharge port is arranged on one side of the feeding clamp, a baffle is arranged on one side of the first discharge port, the baffle is fixed on the first bracket, and a second discharge port is arranged on the baffle;

[0009] The height of the top of the second bracket is higher than the height of the top of the loading clamp; the first end of the material tube is arranged on the loading clamp, and the second end is against the top of the second bracket;

[0010] When the loading clamp moves, it has a first state and a second state; in the first state, the first discharge port and the second discharge port overlap with each other; in the second state, the loading clamp drives the second end of the material tube to detach from the top of the second bracket, thereby causing the material tube to detach from the loading clamp.

[0011] In the traditional feeding method, it is necessary to manually replace the material tube frequently and recycle it, which is cumbersome and time-consuming. The automatic feeding device of the present application realizes continuous automatic feeding and reduces equipment downtime. At the same time, the automatic recycling function of the empty material tube avoids the manual cleaning of the material tube, further saving time, allowing operators to devote more energy to key tasks such as equipment monitoring and quality inspection, and overall improving the compactness and efficiency of the production process.

[0012] In a preferred technical solution of the present invention, it also includes a driving system, wherein the driving system drives the feeding clamp to move along a first direction on the first bracket; the first direction is along the length direction of the baffle;

[0013] The driving system includes a transmission belt and a driving motor. The transmission belt is arranged along the length direction of the baffle. The driving motor is fixed on the first bracket to drive the transmission belt to rotate. The loading clamp is fixedly connected to the transmission belt.

[0014] The automatic driving function of the drive system greatly improves the automation level of the production process. The operator only needs to issue instructions on the control terminal, and the drive motor can quickly and accurately drive the loading clamp to complete the loading and empty tube recovery according to the preset program. There is no need for manual intervention in the movement of the loading clamp, which reduces the time and labor intensity of manual operation.

[0015] In a preferred technical solution of the present invention, it also includes a material clamp base, a transfer and fixing block and a guide rail, wherein the guide rail is arranged on the first bracket along the length direction of the baffle, and the guide rail is parallel to the transmission belt; the bottom of the transfer and fixing block is slidably arranged on the guide rail, and one side of the transfer and fixing block is connected to the transmission belt through a connecting clip;

[0016] The material clamp base is fixed on the transfer and fixing block, and the upper surface of the material clamp base is set at an angle A with the horizontal plane, 30°<A<50°; the upper material clamp is set on the upper surface of the material clamp base.

[0017] The upper surface of the clamp base is tilted (30°<A<50°) to make use of gravity, so that the components can slide down naturally in the material tube, achieving a smoother and more stable automatic loading process. It reduces the phenomenon of component discharge jamming caused by the horizontal placement of the material tube or the inappropriate tilt angle, and improves the loading speed and efficiency.

[0018] In a preferred technical solution of the present invention, a clamping block is provided on the material clamp base, a clamping slot is provided at the bottom of the upper material clamp, and the clamping block is adapted to the clamping slot.

[0019] The matching design of the clamp block and the clamp slot greatly enhances the connection stability between the loading clamp and the clamp base, making the installation of the loading clamp easier.

[0020] In a preferred technical solution of the present invention, the material clamp base is provided with a support block, and the support block protrudes from the upper surface of the material clamp base; when the material tube is arranged on the upper material clamp, the bottom of the material tube rests on the support block.

[0021] The support block provides a stable support point for the material tube, ensuring that the material tube can maintain the correct position and angle at all times. This makes the arrangement of components in the material tube more orderly, and can enter the processing equipment more accurately during the loading process, improving the loading accuracy.

[0022] In a preferred technical solution of the present invention, a plurality of material pipes are arranged on the loading clamp, and the axes of the material pipes are parallel to each other.

[0023] Multiple material pipes are arranged in parallel on the feeding clamp, which increases the material capacity of a single feeding and reduces the frequency of replacing the feeding clamp, thereby shortening the equipment downtime and improving the continuity of production.

[0024] In a preferred technical solution of the present invention, it also includes a pressing plate, which is clamped on the feeding clamp, and a limiting position is formed between the pressing plate and the feeding clamp, and the first end of the material tube is arranged in the limiting position.

[0025] A second object of the present invention is to provide an angle cutting and forming device, comprising a main machine and the automatic feeding device as described above, wherein the automatic feeding device is arranged on one side of the main machine.

[0026] In a preferred technical solution of the present invention, a material guide plate is provided on one side of the main machine, a material guide channel is provided in the material guide plate, and one side of the material guide channel is connected to the second material outlet.

[0027] A third object of the present invention is to provide a feeding method for a corner cutting and forming device, which is implemented based on the automatic feeding device as described above.

[0028] The feeding method based on the automatic feeding device realizes a high degree of automation and precise control, reducing manual intervention and operation time. Compared with the traditional feeding method, the waiting time and material handling time during the feeding process are greatly shortened.

[0029] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0030] The present invention provides an automatic feeding device, which includes a supporting frame and a feeding assembly. The supporting frame includes a first bracket and a second bracket, and the second bracket is arranged on one side of the first bracket. The feeding assembly includes a feeding clamp and a material pipe. The feeding clamp is movably arranged on the first bracket, and a first discharge port is arranged on one side of the feeding clamp. A baffle is arranged on one side of the first discharge port, and the baffle is fixed on the first bracket, and the second discharge port is arranged on the baffle; the height of the top of the second bracket is higher than the height of the top of the feeding clamp; the first end of the material pipe is arranged on the feeding clamp, and the second end is against the top of the second bracket. When the feeding clamp moves, it has a first state and a second state; in the first state, the first discharge port and the second discharge port overlap each other; in the second state, the first feeding clamp drives the second end of the material pipe to detach from the top of the second bracket, so that the material pipe is detached from the feeding clamp. During use, the device installs the material pipe filled with components on the feeding clamp, and makes the second end of the material pipe abut against the top of the second bracket. The feeding clamp moves to the first state under the action of the driving mechanism, at which time the first discharge port coincides with the second discharge port, and the components enter the processing station of the corner shearing and forming equipment through the discharge port in turn under the action of gravity or the auxiliary pushing device, and the equipment begins to perform corner shearing and forming processing on the components. When the components in the material tube flow out and the feeding is completed, the feeding clamp automatically moves to the second state under the command of the control system. In this process, the feeding clamp drives the second end of the material tube to gradually separate from the top of the second bracket. As the material tube loses support and its own gravity, the material tube smoothly separates from the feeding clamp and falls into the recovery container set below. When the device is feeding, it can rely on the action of gravity to make the components in the material tube flow out automatically to achieve feeding. After the feeding is completed, the automatic recovery function of the empty material tube avoids the link of manually cleaning the material tube, further saves time, can reduce labor costs, and realize continuous production, which can improve the compactness and efficiency of the production process as a whole.

[0031] The present application also provides a corner cutting and forming device including the above-mentioned automatic feeding device and a feeding method for the corner cutting and forming device. The corner cutting and forming device can utilize the above-mentioned automatic feeding device to automatically feed materials, saving time and manpower in the feeding process, thereby reducing production costs.

[0041] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Although the preferred embodiments of the present invention are shown in the accompanying drawings, it should be understood that the present invention can be implemented in various forms and should not be limited by the embodiments described herein. On the contrary, these embodiments are provided to make the present invention more thorough and complete, and to fully convey the scope of the present invention to those skilled in the art.

[0042] In the field of electronic component production, the pin length of components (such as capacitors) needs to be pre-processed with the help of angle cutting and forming equipment according to actual use requirements. Traditional angle cutting and forming equipment mainly relies on inclined plane transfer devices to load materials. The operation process of this loading method is: when the equipment is in standby mode, the operator manually performs the material tube loading and replenishment operation, and starts the equipment after completion; after the equipment processing is completed, the operator manually removes the empty material tube again, and then starts the next round of material loading cycle.

[0043] This traditional feeding method has many disadvantages. First, the corner cutting and forming equipment needs to be frequently stopped, presenting an intermittent production state, resulting in extremely low production efficiency and unable to meet the needs of modern efficient production. Second, the operation method of manually feeding the material tubes one by one and manually recovering the empty material tubes not only consumes a lot of manpower and time, but also the instability of manual operation is easy to introduce errors, which has an adverse effect on the continuity and stability of production.

[0044] Based on this, the present application provides an automatic feeding device.

[0045] Example 1

[0046] See also Figure 1-Figure 7 , this embodiment provides an automatic feeding device, comprising:

[0047] The supporting frame 1 comprises a first bracket 11 and a second bracket 12, wherein the second bracket 12 is arranged on one side of the first bracket 11;

[0048] A feeding assembly 2, the feeding assembly 2 comprising a feeding clamp 21 and a feeding pipe 22, the feeding clamp 21 being movably arranged on the first bracket 11, a first discharge port 211 being arranged on one side of the feeding clamp 21, a baffle 3 being arranged on one side of the first discharge port 211, the baffle 3 being fixed on the first bracket 11, and a second discharge port 31 being arranged on the baffle 3;

[0049] The height of the top of the second bracket 12 is higher than the height of the top of the loading clamp 21; the first end of the material tube 22 is arranged on the loading clamp 21, and the second end is against the top of the second bracket 12;

[0050] When the loading clamp 21 moves, it has a first state and a second state; in the first state, the first discharge port 211 and the second discharge port 31 overlap with each other; in the second state, the loading clamp 21 drives the second end of the material tube 22 to detach from the top of the second bracket 12, thereby causing the material tube 22 to detach from the loading clamp 21.

[0051] Specifically, the first bracket 11 and the second bracket 12 of the present application are made of aluminum alloy, milled by a CNC machining center, and anodized on the surface to enhance wear resistance and corrosion resistance. The feed clamp 21 and the feed pipe 22 can be formed by injection molding of high-strength engineering plastics. The feed clamp 21 is provided with a placement groove to ensure that the feed pipe 22 is firmly installed and can discharge smoothly. The feed pipe 22 can also be made of transparent polycarbonate to facilitate observation of the remaining material.

[0052] Then the baffle 3 is firmly welded to the first bracket 11 to ensure its position accuracy so that the second discharge port 31 is accurately aligned with the feed port of the subsequent processing equipment. The loading clamp 21 is installed on the first bracket 11 using a high-precision guide rail 4 and a slider to ensure that the loading clamp 21 moves smoothly and is accurately positioned.

[0053] Install the material tube 22 on the loading clamp 21 so that the first end of the material tube 22 is completely embedded in the placement groove of the loading clamp 21 and the second end is against the top of the second bracket 12. During the installation process, check whether the connections of each component are firm and whether there is any looseness or interference.

[0054] After the device is assembled, it is first debugged by no-load operation. The drive motor 61 is started to drive the loading clamp 21 to move slowly on the first bracket 11, and its movement process is checked to see if it is smooth, and if there is any jamming or abnormal noise. By adjusting the lubrication system of the guide rail 4 and the motor drive parameters, it is ensured that the loading clamp 21 switches smoothly between the first state and the second state, and the movements of each component are coordinated and consistent.

[0055] Carry out feeding simulation debugging, load a certain amount of simulated material into the material pipe 22, start the device, observe the discharge of the material at the first discharge port 211 and the second discharge port 31, and check whether the material can accurately fall into the feed port of the subsequent processing equipment. If there is a deviation, fine-tune the position of the baffle 3 and the moving speed of the feeding clamp 21 until the material discharge accuracy meets the design requirements.

[0056] In actual production, the material tube 22 filled with components is installed on the loading clamp 21, and the device is started according to the operating procedures. The operator electrically connects and mechanically docks the loading device with the corner shearing and forming equipment to ensure normal signal transmission and smooth material transportation, and then enters the production task parameters in the control terminal to start the automatic loading program.

[0057] The loading clamp 21 moves to the first state under the action of the driving mechanism, at which time the first discharge port 211 coincides with the second discharge port 31, and the components enter the processing station of the corner trimming and forming equipment through the discharge port in sequence under the action of gravity, and the equipment starts to perform corner trimming and forming processing on the components.

[0058] When all components in the material tube 22 are processed, the loading clamp 21 automatically moves to the second state under the command of the control system. In this process, the loading clamp 21 drives the second end of the material tube 22 to gradually separate from the top of the second bracket 12. Since the material tube 22 loses support and its own gravity, the material tube 22 smoothly separates from the loading clamp 21 and falls into the recycling container set below. More specifically, the recycling container adopts an inclined design to facilitate the automatic sliding of the empty material tube 22 for centralized collection.

[0059] In addition, in actual applications, when the loading clamp 21 moves, it also has a third state. In the third state, the first discharge port 211 and the second discharge port 31 are staggered with each other, but the second end of the material tube 22 is still at the top of the second bracket 12. At this time, it can be understood that the device stops unloading.

[0060] The existence of the angle A ensures that the components flow out of the material pipe 22 into the processing equipment in an orderly and stable manner under the action of gravity, thereby avoiding collision and damage of the components that may be caused by manual intervention or mechanical vibration.

[0061] Example 2

[0062] This embodiment is optimized based on embodiment 1.

[0063] See also Figure 1-Figure 7 In this embodiment, it further includes a driving system 6, wherein the driving system 6 drives the loading clamp 21 to move along a first direction on the first bracket 11; the first direction is along the length direction of the baffle 3;

[0064] The driving system 6 includes a transmission belt 62 and a driving motor 61 . The transmission belt 62 is arranged along the length direction of the baffle 3 . The driving motor 61 is fixed on the first bracket 11 to drive the transmission belt 62 to rotate. The loading clamp 21 is fixedly connected to the transmission belt 62 .

[0065] During the operation of the driving motor 61, the transmission belt 62 is driven to rotate, thereby driving the loading clamp 21 to move through the transmission belt 62, so that the loading clamp 21 can switch between different working states. The combination of the transmission belt 62 and the driving motor 61 can provide constant and precisely adjustable power, ensuring that each time the loading clamp 21 moves to the first state, the first discharge port 211 and the second discharge port 31 have high overlap accuracy, and the deviation can be controlled within a very small range, effectively reducing the jamming and scattering of materials during discharge.

[0066] The automatic driving function of the drive system 6 greatly improves the automation level of the production process. The operator only needs to issue instructions on the control terminal, and the drive motor 61 can quickly and accurately drive the loading clamp 21 to complete the loading and empty material tube 22 recovery actions according to the preset program, without manual intervention in the movement process of the loading clamp 21, reducing the time and labor intensity of manual operation.

[0067] Example 3

[0068] This embodiment is optimized based on the second embodiment.

[0069] See also Figure 1-Figure 7 In this embodiment, the loading device further includes a material clamp base 5, a transfer and fixing block 41 and a guide rail 4, wherein the guide rail 4 is arranged on the first bracket 11 along the length direction of the baffle 3, and the guide rail 4 is parallel to the transmission belt 62; the bottom of the transfer and fixing block 41 is slidably arranged on the guide rail 4, and one side of the transfer and fixing block 41 is connected to the transmission belt 62 through a connecting clamp 42;

[0070] The material clamp base 5 is fixed on the transfer and fixing block 41 , and the upper surface of the material clamp base 5 is set at an angle A with the horizontal plane, 30°<A<50°; the upper material clamp 21 is set on the upper surface of the material clamp base 5 .

[0071] The existence of the angle A causes the upper surface of the clamp base to be tilted, so that the material tube 22 is tilted when placed on the loading clamp 21, ensuring that the components can automatically flow out under the action of gravity during the loading process.

[0072] The guide rail 4 is accurately installed on the first bracket 11 along the length direction of the baffle 3 and can be fixed by positioning pins and high-strength bolts. The transfer and fixing block 41 is installed on the guide rail 4 and its sliding performance is checked. The transfer and fixing block 41 should be able to move easily and smoothly on the guide rail 4 by manually pushing it without any jamming.

[0073] The material clamp base 5 is fixed on the transfer fixing block 41 to ensure that the two are tightly connected. Finally, the material clamp 21 is installed on the upper surface of the material clamp base 5 to ensure that the material clamp 21 fits tightly with the material clamp base 5, and the material tube 22 is placed on the material clamp 21 in a stable tilted state.

[0074] After the assembly is completed, the whole is debugged. Start the drive motor 61, observe the movement of the transfer and fixing block 41 on the guide rail 4, and the discharge of components in the material tube 22 when the loading clamp 21 moves with the transfer and fixing block 41. By adjusting the tension of the transmission belt 62, the lubrication state of the guide rail 4 and the position accuracy of the transfer and fixing block 41, ensure that the components can flow out smoothly and continuously under the action of gravity during the loading process, and the loading clamp 21 does not deviate or shake during the movement.

[0075] During operation, the transmission belt 62 rotates to drive the clamp base 5 to move, thereby driving the entire loading clamp 21 to move, and realizing the switching of different states of the loading clamp 21. In addition, the clamp base 5 slides on the guide rail 4, which can improve the stability of the movement of the entire loading clamp 21, so that the loading process can proceed smoothly.

[0076] The existence of angle A ensures that the components flow out of the material pipe 22 into the processing equipment in an orderly and stable manner under the action of gravity, avoiding collision and damage of components that may be caused by manual intervention or mechanical vibration. This makes the initial state of the product during the processing more consistent, effectively reduces the risk of product quality defects caused by the feeding link, and improves the stability and reliability of product quality.

[0077] Example 4

[0078] This embodiment is optimized based on embodiment 1.

[0079] See also Figure 1-Figure 7 In this embodiment, a clamping block 52 is provided on the material clamp base 5 , and a clamping slot 212 is provided at the bottom of the upper material clamp 21 , and the clamping block 52 is adapted to the clamping slot 212 .

[0080] The matching design of the clamp block 52 and the clamp slot 212 greatly enhances the connection stability between the loading clamp 21 and the clamp base 5. In the long-term use process, the frequency of equipment maintenance caused by loose connection is reduced, the overall reliability and service life of the equipment are improved, the equipment maintenance cost and downtime are saved for the enterprise, and the continuity and stability of production are guaranteed.

[0081] More preferably, the material clamp base 5 has a support block 51 , and the support block 51 protrudes from the upper surface of the material clamp base 5 ; when the material tube 22 is disposed on the upper material clamp 21 , the bottom of the material tube 22 abuts against the support block 51 .

[0082] The support block 51 provides a stable support point for the material tube 22, ensuring that the material tube 22 can maintain the correct position and angle at any time. This makes the arrangement of components in the material tube 22 more orderly, and can enter the processing equipment more accurately during the loading process, thereby improving the loading accuracy.

[0083] Example 5

[0084] This embodiment is optimized based on embodiment 1.

[0085] See also Figure 1-Figure 7 In this embodiment, a plurality of material pipes 22 are disposed on the loading clamp 21 , and the axes of the material pipes 22 are parallel to each other. The first end of each material pipe 22 corresponds to one of the first discharge ports 211 .

[0086] A plurality of material pipes 22 are arranged in parallel on the feeding clamp 21, which increases the material capacity of a single feeding and reduces the frequency of replacing the feeding clamp 21, thereby shortening the equipment downtime and improving the continuity of production.

[0087] More preferably, it further comprises a pressing plate 23, wherein the pressing plate 23 is clamped on the feeding clamp 21, and a limiting position is formed between the pressing plate 23 and the feeding clamp 21, and the first end of the material tube 22 is arranged in the limiting position.

[0088] The arrangement of the pressing plate 23 is to ensure stability when feeding the material tube 22. The pressing plate 23 is clamped on the feeding clamp 21 and is easy to disassemble.

[0089] In this embodiment, the use process is as follows: first, the entire feeding clamp 21 is removed, and then a plurality of feeding tubes 22 are installed on the feeding clamp 21, and the feeding tubes 22 are kept in a horizontal state at this time. The pressing plate 23 is clamped on the feeding clamp 21 so that the feeding tubes 22 can be limited.

[0090] When all the material tubes 22 are loaded, the entire loading clamp 21, the material tube 22 and the pressing plate 23 are removed and installed on the material clamp base 5. At this time, the material tube 22 is in an inclined state, and the first discharge port 211 of the loading clamp 21 and the second discharge port 31 of the baffle 3 are staggered with each other, and the preparation work is completed.

[0091] When starting to load materials, the pressing plate 23 is removed so that the first end of the material tube 22 is not restricted. However, the second end of the material tube 22 is still located on the second bracket 12. The loading clamp 21 is driven to move so that the first discharge port 211 of the loading clamp 21 and the second discharge port 31 of the baffle 3 overlap with each other. At this time, the material in the material tube 22 will automatically flow out under the action of gravity to load materials. During the loading process, the loading clamp 21 is stationary.

[0092] When the material in a material tube 22 is loaded, the loading clamp 21 is driven to continue to move, so that the loading clamp 21 reaches the third state, at which time the second end of the empty material tube 22 leaves the second bracket 12, and because the material tube 22 loses support and its own gravity, the material tube 22 smoothly detaches from the loading clamp 21 and falls into the recovery container arranged below.

[0093] By repeating the above feeding action, all the material tubes 22 on the feeding clamp 21 can be automatically fed into the feeding box and the empty material tubes 22 can be automatically recovered.

[0094] Example 6

[0095] See also Figure 1-Figure 7 This embodiment provides a corner cutting and forming device, including a main body 100 and the automatic loading device as described above, and the automatic loading device is arranged on one side of the main body 100.

[0096] Specifically, a material guide plate 110 is disposed on one side of the main machine 100 , a material guide channel 120 is disposed in the material guide plate 110 , and one side of the material guide channel 120 is connected to the second material outlet 31 .

[0097] Integrating the automatic feeding device on one side of the main machine 100 of the shearing and forming equipment reduces the connection links and space occupation between the equipment, and improves the compactness and integrity of the production system. At the same time, the integrated design makes the operation and maintenance of the equipment more convenient. The operator can operate and monitor the entire equipment on the same console, reducing operating errors and the complexity of equipment management, and improving production efficiency and management efficiency. The setting of the guide plate 110 and the guide channel 120 ensures the accurate transportation of materials from the automatic feeding device to the processing area of ​​the main machine 100. The material can maintain a stable flow state in the guide channel 120, avoiding the problem of reduced processing accuracy due to material scattering or deviation.

[0098] Example 7

[0099] See also Figure 1-Figure 7 This embodiment provides a feeding method for a corner cutting and forming device, which is implemented based on the automatic feeding device as described above.

[0100] The specific working process of this feeding method is as follows:

[0101] Before starting the equipment, the operator installs multiple material tubes 22 filled with components onto the loading clamp 21 to ensure that the material tubes 22 are firmly installed and in the correct position. Check whether the drive system 6, transmission components and sensors are working properly. After confirming that they are correct, put the equipment into standby mode. At the same time, prepare spare material tubes 22 and loading clamps 21 so that they can be quickly switched during the subsequent material replacement process.

[0102] The control terminal issues a loading instruction, the drive motor 61 starts, drives the transmission belt 62 to operate, and then moves the loading clamp 21 to the first state along the guide rail 4. During this process, the sensor monitors the position of the loading clamp 21 in real time. When it is detected that the loading clamp 21 reaches the first state, that is, the first discharge port 211 coincides with the second discharge port 31, the drive motor 61 stops running. At this time, the components in the material tube 22 begin to enter the processing station of the corner shearing and forming equipment through the discharge port under the action of gravity, and the equipment officially starts to perform corner shearing and forming processing on the components.

[0103] During the processing, the feeding situation is continuously observed through sensors and monitoring systems. If the material discharge is not smooth or there is a blockage, the control system immediately issues an alarm and adjusts the speed of the drive motor 61 according to a preset program or takes corresponding cleaning measures, such as starting a vibration device (if equipped) to dredge the material pipe 22.

[0104] When all components in a material tube 22 are processed, the control system drives the loading clamp 21 to move to the second state. In this process, the loading clamp 21 drives the second end of the material tube 22 to separate from the support of the second bracket 12, and the empty material tube 22 smoothly separates from the loading clamp 21 under its own gravity and falls into the pre-set recycling container. At the same time, the first discharge port 211 corresponding to another material tube 22 filled with material overlaps with the second discharge port 31, so that the material of the second material tube 22 can also be automatically loaded.

[0105] The design of multiple material pipes 22 ensures that the material feeding and the recovery of the empty material pipes 22 do not interfere with each other during the feeding process, thereby ensuring the continuity of the material feeding and improving the material feeding efficiency.

At the same time, it should be understood that, for ease of description, the sizes of the various parts shown in the accompanying drawings are not drawn according to the actual proportional relationship. The technology, method and equipment known to those of ordinary skill in the relevant field may not be discussed in detail, but in appropriate cases, the technology, method and equipment should be considered as a part of the authorization specification. In all examples shown and discussed here, any specific value should be interpreted as being merely exemplary, rather than as a limitation. Therefore, other examples of exemplary embodiments may have different values. It should be noted that similar reference numerals and letters represent similar items in the following drawings, so that once a certain item is defined in an accompanying drawing, it does not need to be further discussed in subsequent drawings. In the description of the present application, it should be understood that the directions or positional relationships indicated by directional words such as "front, back, up, down, left, right", "lateral, vertical, perpendicular, horizontal" and "top, bottom" are usually based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present application and simplifying the description. Unless otherwise specified, these directional words do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction or be constructed and operated in a specific direction, and therefore cannot be understood as limiting the scope of protection of the present application; the directional words "inside and outside" refer to the inside and outside relative to the contours of each component itself.

[0107] For ease of description, spatially relative terms such as "above", "above", "on the upper surface of", "above", etc. may be used here to describe the spatial positional relationship between a device or feature and other devices or features as shown in the figure. It should be understood that spatially relative terms are intended to include different orientations of the device in use or operation in addition to the orientation described in the figure. For example, if the device in the accompanying drawings is inverted, the device described as "above other devices or structures" or "above other devices or structures" will be positioned as "below other devices or structures" or "below other devices or structures". Thus, the exemplary term "above" can include both "above" and "below". The device can also be positioned in other different ways (rotated 90 degrees or in other orientations), and the spatially relative descriptions used here are interpreted accordingly.

[0108] In addition, it should be noted that the use of words such as "first" and "second" to limit components is only for the convenience of distinguishing the corresponding components. If not otherwise stated, the above words have no special meaning and therefore cannot be understood as limiting the scope of protection of this application. The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. For those skilled in the art, the present invention may have various changes and variations. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
