[0037] like Figures 1 to 4As shown, in some embodiments, a material distribution device includes a support mechanism 100, a feeding mechanism 200, a pushing mechanism 300 and an opening and closing member 400. The support mechanism 100 is provided with a first conveying channel 110 and a discharge port 120 that are connected. The feeding mechanism 200 is arranged on the support mechanism 100, and a second conveying channel 210 is arranged in the feeding mechanism 200, and the second conveying channel 210 is connected with the first conveying channel 110, and the second conveying channel 210 is used for the workpiece 500 to enter the first conveying channel 110. The pushing mechanism 300 is arranged on the support mechanism 100, and the pushing mechanism 300 is used to push the workpiece 500 in the second conveying channel 210 to the discharge port 120. The opening and closing member 400 is slidably arranged on the support mechanism 100, and the opening and closing member 400 is used to open or close the discharge port 120. When working, the workpiece 500 enters the second conveying channel 210 of the feeding mechanism 200, and enters the first conveying channel 110 through the second conveying channel 210. The pushing mechanism 300 pushes the workpiece 500 of the first conveying channel 110 into the discharge port 120, and the opening and closing member 400 opens the discharge port 120 to discharge the workpiece 500 from the discharge port 120, thereby completing the material separation operation. The material separation process is all mechanical operation, and no manual material separation is required, which can improve the efficiency of material separation.

[0038] Specifically, the support mechanism 100 serves as a basic frame. The first conveying channel 110 and the discharge port 120 provided on the support mechanism 100 provide a path for the workpiece 500 to be transported, and the second conveying channel 210 smoothly introduces the workpiece 500 into the first conveying channel 110 .

[0039] Specifically, the support mechanism 100 may be a square block structure.

[0040] Specifically, the workpiece 500 may be a copper sleeve.

[0041] In some embodiments, the feeding mechanism 200 is arranged vertically to the support mechanism 100. The support mechanism 100 is placed horizontally to provide a stable horizontal bearing plane. The feeding mechanism 200 is arranged in the vertical direction. That is, the second conveying channel 210 is arranged in the vertical direction. After the workpiece 500 enters the second conveying channel 210, it can enter the first conveying channel 110 under its own gravity. Gravity-assisted material input can shorten the time interval from the feed source to the first conveying channel 110 of the support mechanism 100. Compared with the horizontal feeding method of full-range drive, it can reduce the energy loss and time consumption of the power transmission link, increase the conveying volume of the workpiece 500 per unit time, and is suitable for large-scale, continuous material distribution production scenarios, providing strong support for efficient production rhythm.

[0042] Specifically, the feeding mechanism 200 can be in the shape of a long strip. More specifically, the feeding mechanism 200 can be in the shape of a cylinder to fit the copper sleeve. The inner diameter of the cylinder is equal to the outer diameter of the copper sleeve. With such a configuration, when the copper sleeve enters the feeding mechanism 200, the force is evenly applied on all sides, effectively avoiding shaking caused by too large a gap or jamming caused by too small a gap.

[0043] The inner wall of the feeding mechanism 200 needs to have high flatness and finish. The feeding mechanism 200 can be made of wear-resistant, low friction coefficient materials, such as stainless steel or engineering plastics (such as polytetrafluoroethylene modified materials), to reduce the friction and wear between the feeding mechanism 200 and the copper sleeve and ensure the surface quality of the copper sleeve.

[0044] Specifically, a feed port is provided at one end of the feed mechanism 200 away from the support mechanism 100. The feed port is communicated with the second conveying channel 210. The feed port is used for allowing the workpiece 500 to enter the second conveying channel 210 from the outside. The feed port can be a square opening.

[0045] Specifically, the feeding mechanism 200 is provided with a long strip opening 220 along the length direction, through which the conveying status of the workpiece 500 in the second conveying channel 210 can be observed. The width of the long strip opening 220 is determined according to the size of the workpiece 500, the observation requirements and the strength of the feeding mechanism 200. If the width of the long strip opening 220 is too wide, the structural integrity of the feeding mechanism 200 will be weakened, and if the width of the long strip opening 220 is too narrow, the observation field and the convenience of operation will be limited.

[0046] The long strip opening 220 provides an intuitive visual window for the operator to observe key parameters such as the position, posture, speed and mutual spacing of the workpiece 500 in the second conveying channel 210 in real time, so as to accurately judge the conveying status of the workpiece 500. When the workpiece 500 is stuck, piled up or unevenly transmitted, it can be detected in time and intervention measures can be taken to adjust the feeding speed, dredge the channel or repair the faulty parts to ensure smooth and unobstructed conveying process, improve the reliability and stability of system operation, ensure production continuity, and reduce the risk of production stagnation due to failure to handle the fault in time.

[0047] More specifically, the number of the long strip openings 220 can be set to be multiple.

[0048] More specifically, the number of the long strip openings 220 can be set to three.

[0049] In some embodiments, the feeding device further includes a reinforcing rib 230. One end of the reinforcing rib 230 is connected to the support mechanism 100, and the other end is connected to the feeding mechanism 200 to enhance the connection strength between the feeding mechanism 200 and the support mechanism 100. Specifically, the other end of the reinforcing rib 230 is connected to the top of the feeding mechanism 200.

[0050] Specifically, the connection between the reinforcing rib 230 and the support mechanism 100 and the feeding mechanism 200 can be welding, bolting, or riveting. In other embodiments, the reinforcing rib 230 and the support mechanism 100 and the feeding mechanism 200 can also be an integrally formed structure.

[0051] In some embodiments, the pushing mechanism 300 includes a first driving member 310 and a pushing assembly 320. The first driving member 310 is connected to the pushing assembly 320. The pushing assembly 320 is slidably disposed in the first conveying channel 110. The first driving member 310 is used to drive the pushing assembly 320 to slide in a direction close to the discharge port 120, so that the pushing assembly 320 pushes the workpiece 500 of the first conveying channel 110 into the discharge port 120.

[0052] The push assembly 320 is slidably arranged in the first conveying channel 110, and the size of the push assembly 320 is set according to the inner diameter tolerance of the first conveying channel 110. The clearance between the push assembly 320 and the first conveying channel 110 is controlled in a very small range to ensure that the push assembly 320 will not shake or get stuck, and the surface treatment of the push assembly 320 matches the channel material.

[0053] Specifically, the first driving member 310 may be a cylinder. The first driving member 310 may be powered by electrical, pneumatic or hydraulic principles.

[0054] In some embodiments, the pushing assembly 320 includes a pushing rod 321, a sliding block 322 and a sliding rail 323. The sliding block 322 is respectively connected to the pushing rod 321 and the first driving member 310, and the sliding block 322 is slidably set on the sliding rail 323. The pushing rod 321 is slidably set in the first conveying channel 110, and the extension direction of the sliding rail 323 is the same as the extension direction of the first conveying channel 110.

[0055] During operation, the first driving member 310 drives the sliding block 322 to move linearly along the sliding rail 323 , and the sliding block 322 drives the pushing rod 321 to slide in the first conveying channel 110 , and the pushing rod 321 pushes the workpiece 500 in the first conveying channel 110 to the discharge port 120 .

[0056] In some embodiments, the slide rail 323 is arranged in parallel with the first conveying channel 110 to ensure that the movement direction of the push rod 321 during operation is consistent with the extension direction of the first conveying channel 110. When the first driving member 310 drives the sliding block 322 to slide on the slide rail 323, since the slide rail 323 is parallel to the first conveying channel 110, the push rod 321 can transmit power to the workpiece 500 in the first conveying channel 110 in the most direct and effective way. Such an arrangement can make the force direction of the push rod 321 during the pushing process completely consistent with the moving direction of the workpiece 500 in the conveying channel, reduce unnecessary force components, and thus improve the efficiency of power transmission. In addition, during the dynamic operation process, the parallel arrangement helps to maintain the overall stability of the push rod 321, reduce the vibration and noise caused by inconsistent movement directions, and create good conditions for the smooth operation of the push mechanism 300.

[0057] In some embodiments, the end of the push rod 321 away from the first driving member 310 is provided with an arc-shaped end surface 324 to fit the cylindrical copper sleeve. The curvature radius of the arc-shaped end surface 324 of the push rod 321 may be the same as the curvature radius of the copper sleeve.

[0058] It should be noted that the outer surface of the cylindrical copper sleeve is arc-shaped, and the arc-shaped end face 324 of the push rod 321 can fit closely with the outer surface of the copper sleeve. This fitting method can increase the contact area between the push rod 321 and the workpiece 500, which is more conducive to the uniform distribution of force. The radius of curvature of the arc-shaped end face 324 is usually accurately adjusted according to the outer diameter of the copper sleeve, increasing the fit between the arc-shaped end face 324 of the push rod 321 and the workpiece 500, so that when the push rod 321 contacts the copper sleeve, it can wrap the outer surface of the copper sleeve to the maximum extent, reducing local stress concentration.

[0059] Through good fit with the outer surface of the copper sleeve and uniform force transmission, the push rod 321 can accurately control the moving direction and speed of the copper sleeve, so that the copper sleeve can be accurately pushed to the discharge port 120, avoiding problems such as copper sleeve accumulation, blockage of the conveying channel or material distribution errors caused by inaccurate pushing, thereby improving the working efficiency and material distribution quality of the material distribution device.

[0060] In some embodiments, the pushing mechanism 300 further includes a stopper 325. The stopper 325 is disposed on the support mechanism 100, and the stopper 325 is located between the sliding block 322 and the discharge port 120. The stopper 325 is used to limit the sliding stroke of the sliding block 322. During operation, when the sliding block 322 drives the push rod 321 to slide in the direction close to the discharge port 120, and the push rod 321 pushes the workpiece 500 to the discharge port 120, the sliding block 322 abuts against the stopper 325, thereby limiting the sliding block 322 from continuing to drive the push rod 321 to slide in the direction close to the discharge port 120. When the sliding block 322 abuts against the stopper 325, the stopper 325 will generate a reverse force on the sliding block 322, and this force is opposite to the movement direction of the sliding block 322, thereby preventing the sliding block 322 from continuing to slide forward, and avoiding the sliding block 322 from continuing to slide forward due to inertia or control system failure, thereby colliding with other components and causing equipment damage. The stopper 325 can protect the pushing mechanism 300 and surrounding equipment components, especially in the case of high-speed or heavy-load pushing, reducing the maintenance cost and downtime of the equipment, and improving the reliability and stability of the equipment.

[0061] It should be noted that the connection between the stopper 325 and the support mechanism 100 can be bolted or welded, so that the stopper 325 can withstand the impact force of the sliding block 322 during movement. The size and shape of the stopper 325 should be compatible with the sliding block 322 and the surrounding structure. The height, length and width of the stopper 325 need to be determined according to the size, movement speed and overall layout of the pushing mechanism 300 of the sliding block 322. For example, the height of the stopper 325 should ensure that it can accurately contact the sliding block 322 when it reaches the preset position.

[0062] Specifically, a buffer is provided on the side of the stopper 325 facing the sliding block 322, so as to prevent the rigid collision between the sliding block 322 and the stopper 325 from causing damage to the device. For example, an elastic buffer material, such as a rubber pad or a spring device, is provided on the surface where the stopper 325 contacts the sliding block 322. In this way, when the sliding block 322 abuts against the stopper 325, the buffer material can absorb a part of the impact force, prolong the collision time, and reduce the peak value of the impact force, thereby protecting the sliding block 322 and prolonging the service life of the device.

[0063] In some embodiments, a through hole 410 is provided on the opening and closing member 400, and the opening and closing member 400 has an open state and a closed state. When the opening and closing member 400 is in the closed state, the opening and closing member 400 closes the discharge port 120 so that the workpiece 500 is accommodated in the discharge port 120. When the opening and closing member 400 is in the open state, the through hole 410 is adapted to the discharge port 120, and the workpiece 500 can fall off from the discharge port 120 and the through hole 410. Specifically, the opening and closing member 400 can be a plate-like structure.

[0064] It should be noted that the size, shape and position of the through hole 410 are determined according to the shape and size of the discharge port 120 and the size and shape of the workpiece 500. The through hole 410 needs to be compatible with the discharge port 120, that is, the through hole 410 and the discharge port 120 match in shape, and the through hole 410 can be precisely aligned with the discharge port 120 to ensure that the workpiece 500 can pass smoothly. For example, the discharge port 120 is circular, the through hole 410 is also circular, and the diameter of the through hole 410 is slightly greater than or equal to the diameter of the discharge port 120. In addition, the size of the through hole 410 and the size of the discharge port 120 are greater than the maximum size of the workpiece 500, ensuring that the workpiece 500 will not be stuck in the through hole 410 and the discharge port 120.

[0065] The opening and closing member 400 slides relative to the support mechanism 100 so that the opening and closing member 400 switches between an open state and a closed state. For example, different motion modes such as sliding or rotating can be used to switch the state of the opening and closing member 400. For a sliding opening and closing member 400, it is necessary to set a suitable guide rail or slideway on the support mechanism 100 to ensure that the opening and closing member 400 can slide smoothly and can be accurately positioned in the open and closed positions. A rotating opening and closing member 400 requires a reliable rotating shaft, and its installation position and rotation angle must be precisely controlled to ensure that the through hole 410 is accurately aligned with the discharge port 120.

[0066] When the opening and closing member 400 is in the closed state, the opening and closing member 400 tightly closes the discharge port 120, so that the workpiece 500 is temporarily accommodated in the discharge port 120. At this time, the opening and closing member 400 plays a role in blocking the workpiece 500 from falling, preventing the workpiece 500 from leaving the distributing device when the discharge is not required.

[0067] Open state: When the opening and closing member 400 is switched to the open state, the through hole 410 is matched with the discharge port 120, and the workpiece 500 can fall off from the discharge port 120 and the through hole 410. In this process, the speed and manner of the workpiece 500 falling off are affected by many factors, such as the weight and shape of the workpiece 500 itself, the size of the discharge port 120 and the through hole 410, and the inclination angle of the material dividing device. In order to ensure that the workpiece 500 can fall off smoothly, it is necessary to comprehensively consider these factors and reasonably design and adjust the device. For example, for heavier or larger workpieces 500, the size of the through hole 410 and the discharge port 120 can be appropriately increased, or the inclination angle of the device can be adjusted to use gravity to make the workpiece 500 fall off faster.

[0068] In some embodiments, the material distributing device further includes a second driving member 420, which is disposed on the support mechanism 100 and connected to the opening and closing member 400, and is used to drive the opening and closing member 400 to slide relative to the support mechanism 100. Specifically, the second driving member 420 may be a cylinder.

[0069] It should be noted that during the material distribution process, the movement of the opening and closing member 400 needs to be precisely controlled. A displacement sensor can be set to monitor the position of the opening and closing member 400 in real time, and then the signal is fed back to the control system, and the control system adjusts the output of the second driving member 420 according to the preset program or process requirements, so as to achieve precise sliding of the opening and closing member 400.

[0070] The second driving member 420 enables automatic control of the opening and closing of the opening and closing member 400. In the automated production line of the material dispensing device, the action of the second driving member 420 can be controlled by a program, and the discharge time and quantity of the workpieces 500 can be accurately controlled according to the production rhythm and process requirements. For example, after the pushing mechanism 300 pushes a certain number of workpieces 500 to the discharge port 120, the second driving member 420 can open the opening and closing member 400 in a timely manner according to the instruction, so that the workpieces 500 can be discharged smoothly, and then close the opening and closing member 400 to wait for the next discharge instruction, which greatly improves the automation degree and production efficiency of the material dispensing process.

[0071] By precisely controlling the sliding of the opening and closing member 400, abnormal movement of the opening and closing member 400 due to manual operation or mechanical failure can be avoided. For example, in the frequent material distribution process, the accurate sliding of the opening and closing member 400 can prevent the occurrence of jamming, collision, etc. between it and the discharge port 120, and reduce the wear and damage of the components. At the same time, the stable opening and closing action can also ensure the consistency and stability of the discharge of the workpiece 500, avoid the problems of blockage and poor falling of the workpiece 500 during the discharge process, and improve the reliability of the equipment and the stability of long-term operation.

[0072] In some embodiments, the opening and closing member 400 is disposed on the side of the support mechanism 100 away from the feeding mechanism 200. The second driving member 420 is disposed on the side of the support mechanism 100 away from the feeding mechanism 200. That is, the feeding mechanism 200 is disposed on the top surface of the support mechanism 100. The opening and closing member 400 and the second driving member 420 are disposed on the bottom surface of the support mechanism 100. The opening and closing member 400 and the second driving member 420 can be a lower reciprocating mechanism.

[0073] During operation, the workpiece 500 enters from the feeding mechanism 200 located on the top surface of the support mechanism 100, and is pushed to the vicinity of the discharge port 120 along the conveying channel inside the support mechanism 100. At this time, the second driving member 420 located on the bottom surface of the support mechanism 100 drives the opening and closing member 400 to perform corresponding actions according to the preset control logic. If the discharge conditions are met, the opening and closing member 400 opens, and the workpiece 500 can smoothly fall off from the discharge port 120 and enter the next process. If the discharge conditions are not met, the opening and closing member 400 remains in the closed state, and the workpiece 500 is temporarily retained in the discharge port 120 waiting for the next instruction. This arrangement makes the entire material distribution process clear and orderly, and each link is closely connected and orderly, which is convenient for realizing automatic control and precise material distribution operations.
