The length and width of the rectangular frame can be flexibly adjusted according to the size and shape of the workpiece, so that it can adapt to workpieces of different specifications and achieve accurate positioning. The movement of the positioning posts 310 not only provides higher flexibility, but also ensures that multiple workpieces are regularly stacked in the same frame, avoiding mutual interference between the workpieces. Through the above design, the workpieces can be accurately aligned when loading, ensuring stability during the feeding process; In addition, by utilizing the rotation and lifting functions of the rotating lifting platform 710 and combining the unloading end 730 with the loading end 720, the rotating lifting platform 710 drives the loading end 720 to rotate above the workpiece after regular positioning, and the workpiece in the positioning fixture is fed to the punching mechanism 50 through the loading end 720 for punching, while the unloading end 730 accurately sends the punched workpiece to the temporary storage platform 60 for temporary storage, thereby maintaining the stability and processing accuracy of the workpiece in each link. Subsequently, when the workpieces in one group of positioning components 30 are consumed, the loading plate 20 is rotated to rotate the other group of positioning components 30 fully loaded with workpieces to the initial work position, so that the loading end 720 can start feeding the workpiece for punching again, thereby achieving a more efficient operation process and further improving work efficiency.

[0029] In this embodiment, Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, the rotary lifting platform 710 includes a lifting plate 711, a rotating plate 712, a first motor 713, a first cylinder 714, a guide sleeve 715, a guide column 716, and a bearing plate 717.

At the same time, the first motor 713 is used to drive the rotating plate 712 to rotate, so as to drive the workpiece grasped by the hanging arm 740 of the feeding end 720 to rotate and shift to the punching station area of ​​the punching mechanism 50. Subsequently, the first motor 713 is used to reverse, so that the suction cup 760 of the feeding end 720 absorbs the next workpiece again, and the suction cup 760 of the unloading end 730 absorbs the workpiece that has been punched at this time.

[0032] In this embodiment, Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, the positioning opening 542 is adapted to the outer contour of the workpiece, ensuring that the workpiece can be placed in the positioning opening 542 of the positioning plate 541 .

[0033] In this embodiment, Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, a second motor 80 is disposed at the bottom of the loading tray 20 , and the second motor 80 is fixed on the machine platform 10 .

[0034] In this embodiment, Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, the lifting assembly 40 uses a second cylinder. When a large number of workpieces in the positioning column 310 are grabbed, the height of the workpieces in the positioning column 310 decreases. In order to ensure that the suction cup 760 of the loading end 720 can absorb the workpieces, the driving end of the second cylinder can be used to penetrate the loading plate 20 and press against the bottom of the workpiece, thereby driving the workpiece in the positioning column 310 to rise to a height position that can be absorbed by the suction cup 760.

[0035] In this embodiment, Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, one of the positioning fixtures further includes four guide rails 320 , and the four guide rails 320 are fixed on the machine platform 10 , wherein one end of each of the positioning posts 310 slides outside each guide rail 320 .

[0038] (2) Glass loading After the preparation is completed, the first cylinder 714 is used to drive the lifting plate 711 to descend in height, which can drive the hanging arm 740 and the hanging plate 750 of the feeding end 720 to move downward and contact the workpiece in the positioning fixture. At this moment, the suction cup 760 at the bottom of the hanging plate 750 absorbs the workpiece in the positioning fixture to complete the grasping of the workpiece. At this time, the height of the lifting plate 711 is reset, and then the first motor 713 is used to drive the rotating plate 712 and the lifting plate 711 to rotate, so as to drive the workpiece grasped by the hanging arm 740 of the feeding end 720 to rotate and shift to above the positioning port 542 of the positioning plate 541, and the lifting plate 711 is continued to be driven downward by the second cylinder to release the glass through the suction cup 760, so that the glass falls into the positioning port 542 and is supported by the supporting frame 543 on the side wall of the positioning port 542.

[0039] (3) Secondary loading of glass and unloading of finished products After the glass is loaded for the first time, the first motor 713 is used to reverse and the suction cup 760 of the loading end 720 is moved again to the top of the workpiece in the positioning fixture, and then the next workpiece is sucked again. At this moment, the suction cup 760 of the unloading end 730 is located above the positioning plate 541 and sucks the workpiece that has been punched. Subsequently, the first motor 713 is used to drive the rotating disk 712 and the lifting disk 711 to continue to rotate back and forth, so that the workpiece sucked by the loading end 720 continues to fall into the positioning port 542 of the positioning plate 541, and the workpiece sucked by the unloading end 730 falls onto the temporary storage platform 60.
