[0024] In this embodiment, the frame support table 3 includes a transverse support table 7 and a longitudinal support table 8 arranged perpendicular to each other ( Figure 1The horizontal direction of the frame 1 is the horizontal direction, and the longitudinal direction is the direction perpendicular to the frame 1, that is, the length direction of the longitudinal support platform 8). The material discharging mechanism 6 includes a discharging cylinder 9 installed on the transverse support platform 7, a discharging guide slider 10 slidably adjusted and installed on the transverse support platform 7, and a material dividing push plate 11 installed in conjunction with the discharging guide slider 10. The longitudinal support platform 8 is provided with a material dividing push plate slot for the material dividing push plate 11 to push it transversely. The discharging cylinder 9 is installed in conjunction with the discharging guide slider 10, and the discharging guide slider 10 is slidably installed in conjunction with the discharging guide slider guide rail 12. The front end of the discharging guide slider 10 is installed in conjunction with the material dividing push plate 11. The discharging cylinder 9 drives the discharging guide slider 10 to telescopically slide along the discharging guide slider guide rail 12, thereby allowing the material dividing push plate 11 to telescopically load materials. The front end of the material dividing push plate 11 can extend out of the motor push plate assembly (including the lower motor mounting seat 16, the upper motor mounting seat, the push plate motor 17 and the limit push plate 18 installed in conjunction with the push plate motor output end). A mounting seat gap for the installation of the material dividing push plate 11 is formed between the lower motor mounting seat 16 and the upper motor mounting seat, and the front end of the material dividing push plate 11 is recessed downward to form a push plate lower A push plate arc portion 28 for limiting the placement of the material 26 is formed on the push plate sinking step 29. When the material 26 falls onto the push plate arc portion 28 of the push plate sinking step 29, the material dividing push plate 11 pushes the material out for loading. A strip opening 27 is provided at the front end of the material dividing push plate 11. When the material 26 is placed on the push plate arc portion 28 for pushing out, by cooperating with the laser sensing device 13, the laser of the laser sensing device 13 passes through the strip opening 27 (the laser sensing device 13 can be installed and used using a device in the prior art), which can detect that the material 26 is stably pushed out for loading. When the material piece is not pushed out accordingly, the laser sensing device 13 can detect a signal for corresponding prompting.

[0025] In this embodiment, the material bin mechanism 5 includes a material bin plate 19 installed on the longitudinal support platform 8, a vertical material bin 14 installed in conjunction with the material bin plate 19, and a spring pressing assembly 15 installed on the vertical material bin. The material 26 is stacked in the vertical material bin 14 and the spring pressing assembly 15 is used to press the material 26 in the vertical direction. The vertical material bin 14 and the material bin plate 19 are installed in a close-fitting manner and both are arranged vertically relative to the longitudinal support platform 8. The vertical material bin 14 is a rectangular parallelepiped structure as a whole and is evenly distributed inside to form a plurality of parallelly arranged bins. A plurality of materials 26 are stacked in each bin along its height direction. The spring pressing assembly 15 is also multiple and one-to-one correspondingly installed directly above the bin. The lower end of the spring pressing assembly 15 (the spring pressing assembly 15 adopts the existing spring pressing structure to achieve pressing on the upper end of the material) is always pressed against the uppermost end of the material 26 through the spring, forming a pressing effect on the material 26.

[0026] In this embodiment, a plurality of material inner bins 23 are evenly distributed along the longitudinal direction of the material bin plate 19. An inner bin spring 25 and an inner bin positioning tongue piece 24 installed in cooperation with the inner bin spring 25 are arranged in the material inner bin 23. A tongue piece positioning hole 22 for cooperating with the material 26 is formed in the inner bin positioning tongue piece 24. As Figure 3 (When all the inner bin positioning tongue pieces 24 are in the extended state, only the one at the leftmost end cooperating with the material distributing push plate 11 will be in the compressed state during normal use), Figure 6 As shown, the material bin plate 19 is integrally in the shape of a cuboid. A plurality of material inner bins 23 are evenly distributed along the length direction of the lower end of the material bin plate 19. An inner bin spring 25 is installed in the material inner bin 23. One end of the inner bin spring 25 is fixed in the material inner bin 23, and the other end of the inner bin spring 25 is installed in cooperation with the inner bin positioning tongue piece 24. Under normal conditions, the inner bin positioning tongue piece 24 is pushed out by the inner bin spring 25 and is in the extended state; when the material inner bin 23 in the working state cooperates with the material distributing push plate 11, the inner bin positioning tongue piece 24 inside the material inner bin 23 in the use state is pressed tightly by the limit push plate 18 installed at the output end of the push plate motor. At this time, the inner bin spring 25 is in the compressed state (the inner bin springs 25 not in the use state are always in the extended state. A tongue piece opening is formed at the lower end of the vertical material bin 14. The inner bin positioning tongue piece 24 passes through the tongue piece opening so that the material 26 will not pass through the tongue piece positioning hole 22. At this time, the material 26 and the tongue piece positioning hole 22 are in a misaligned state, that is, the inner bin positioning tongue piece 24 plays a role in supporting the material, avoiding the situation of misalignment and inclination caused by the upper spring pressing assembly 15 squeezing the material, effectively ensuring the accuracy of the subsequent material position), so that the material 26 just passes through the tongue piece positioning hole 22. The material distributing push plate 11 quickly extends and retracts to realize the continuous and rapid feeding of the material 26.

[0027] In this embodiment, the bin switching mechanism includes a cylinder pushing assembly installed on the horizontal support platform 7, a meshing rack assembly used in cooperation with the cylinder pushing assembly, a longitudinal push plate assembly installed in cooperation with the meshing rack assembly, and a bin plate push plate assembly used in cooperation with the material bin plate; the longitudinal push plate assembly can slide and adjust along the length direction of the longitudinal support platform 8, and the bin plate push plate assembly is installed on the longitudinal push plate assembly and can drive the material bin plate 19 to slide and adjust along the length direction of the longitudinal support platform. The cylinder pushing assembly cooperates to enable the driving rack 34 of the meshing rack assembly to move along the horizontal and longitudinal directions, and then drives the longitudinal rack 35 to perform corresponding longitudinal movements to achieve the purpose of bin switching.

As an installation support platform, a transition support platform 30 and a lateral cylinder support frame 31 installed on the transition support platform 30 are installed on the lateral support platform 7. The transition support platform 30 and the lateral cylinder support frame 31 are also installed in a matching manner using a slider guide. During use, the telescopic movement of the output end of the lateral cylinder 33 drives the engagement of the active rack 34 with the longitudinal rack 35, and then the longitudinal cylinder 32 can be telescoped to enable the active rack 34 to drive the longitudinal rack 35 to adjust its position in the longitudinal direction, thereby realizing the movement of the material bin plate 19 and the vertical material bin 14 and achieving bin switching.

[0029] In this embodiment, the meshing rack assembly includes a longitudinal rack 35 and an active rack 34 installed in cooperation with the longitudinal rack. The active rack 34 is installed in cooperation with the lateral cylinder (the output end of the lateral cylinder 33).

The two clamping fasteners 36 are provided to clamp the material bin plate 19 to ensure the stability of the structure during feeding.

[0031] In this embodiment, the bin plate pushing plate assembly includes a bin plate pushing plate 38 slidably and adjustably arranged on the longitudinal pushing plate 40 and a vertical locking member 39 for locking the bin plate pushing plate 38. A pushing plate positioning slot for cooperating with the material bin plate 19 is formed on the bin plate pushing plate 38. A pushing plate upper slide rail 37 is installed on the upper surface of the longitudinal pushing plate 40. Correspondingly, the bin plate pushing plate 38 is slidably installed in cooperation with the pushing plate upper slide rail 37. After the bin plate pushing plate 38 slides to a suitable position, the bin plate pushing plate 38 is locked to the longitudinal pushing plate 40 by the vertical locking member 39 (using an existing locking rod or locking pin, etc., and cooperating with the positioning holes on the longitudinal pushing plate 40 to achieve locking). A material bin plate positioning platform 21 is formed by the convexity on the upper end surface of the material bin plate 19 and a quick clamp positioning block 20 for cooperating with the pressing quick clamp 36. A pushing plate positioning slot structure is machined on the end surface of the bin plate pushing plate 38.
