Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of automated equipment, and more particularly to an upward-pushing magnetic block separation structure. Background Technology
[0002] Medium- and high-performance magnetic blocks, as key functional components, are widely used in many high-end manufacturing fields such as industrial automation, electronics, rail transportation, aerospace, medical equipment, and new energy. With the continuous improvement of product performance requirements, higher demands are being placed on the precision and efficiency of magnetic mounting processes, especially in scenarios requiring the rapid and accurate mounting of S-pole and N-pole magnetic blocks in a specific arrangement. The introduction of automated mounting technology has become an important means to improve production efficiency. Currently, the storage and transportation of medium- and high-performance magnetic blocks typically involves storing the S-pole and N-pole separately, with plastic magnetic strips placed between the blocks to prevent magnetic interference. While this method meets basic storage requirements to some extent, it still faces many technical challenges in actual mounting processes.
[0003] When the magnetic energy product of the magnetic blocks exceeds 45 MGOe, the remanence is greater than 13 T, and the coercivity is higher than 14 KOe, the magnetic force between the blocks becomes extremely significant. During the separation and positioning of the magnetic blocks using manual or automated equipment, the blocks are easily attracted or repelled, causing them to adhere to each other, shift, or even break, severely impacting mounting quality and operational safety. Current technologies largely rely on manual application of adhesive and mounting using positioning molds, which is not only inefficient—it often takes 1 to 2 hours to mount a set of 40 magnetic blocks in a double row—but also carries extremely high operational risks under high magnetic energy product conditions, leading to frequent block breakage and safety accidents, significantly limiting the improvement of production efficiency and the promotion of automated processes.
[0004] Therefore, how to develop an upward-pushing magnetic block separation structure that can stably push and accurately position the S and N pole magnetic blocks and automatically separate the magnetic isolation strip in a strong magnetic environment, thereby effectively avoiding magnetic block breakage and improving mounting efficiency and operational safety, has become a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved by people in this field. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an upward-pushing magnetic block separation structure that can stably push and accurately position S-pole and N-pole magnetic blocks and automatically separate the magnetic isolation strip in a strong magnetic environment, thereby effectively avoiding magnetic block breakage and improving mounting efficiency and operational safety.

The S-pole fixing groove is fixedly connected to the bottom of the magnetic block separation platform plate, and the top end of the S-pole fixing groove passes through the magnetic block separation platform plate and communicates with its upper surface. The S-pole pushing drive is disposed at the bottom end of the S-pole fixing groove and is used to drive the S-pole support block to move vertically up and down in the S-pole fixing groove. The N-pole pushing assembly includes an N-pole pushing drive, an N-pole fixing groove, and an N-pole support block slidably disposed in the N-pole fixing groove. The N-pole fixing groove is fixedly connected to the bottom of the magnetic block separation platform plate, and the N-pole fixing groove and the S-pole fixing groove are symmetrically arranged. The top end of the N-pole fixing groove passes through the magnetic block separation platform plate and communicates with its upper surface. The N-pole pushing drive is disposed at the bottom end of the N-pole fixing groove and is used to drive the N-pole support block to move vertically up and down in the N-pole fixing groove. The S-pole support block and the N-pole support block are used to push the stacked S-pole magnetic blocks and N-pole magnetic blocks to the top of the magnetic block separation platform plate, respectively. The S-pole positioning component and the N-pole positioning component are used to separate the S-pole magnetic blocks and N-pole magnetic blocks pushed to the top of the platform one by one and fix them to the corresponding picking positions.

[0010] Preferably, the S-pole positioning assembly includes an S-pole horizontal pushing positioning cylinder, an S-pole vertical pushing positioning cylinder, an S-pole positioning block, and an S-pole magnetic strip separating cylinder, all fixedly mounted on the magnetic block separating platform plate. The S-pole positioning block includes a first Z-shaped stop and a first vertical stop. The first Z-shaped stop is fixedly connected to one corner of the magnetic block separating platform plate. The first vertical stop and the first Z-shaped stop are parallel to and spaced apart by the horizontal bend at the top of the first Z-shaped stop, forming an S-pole magnetic strip guide groove between them. The cylinder rod of the S-pole horizontal pushing positioning cylinder extends towards the horizontal bend at the bottom of the first Z-shaped stop, used to push the S-pole above the magnetic block separating platform plate. The magnetic block is pushed towards the horizontal bend at the bottom of the first Z-shaped stop, causing the S-pole magnetic block to abut against the horizontal bend at the bottom of the first Z-shaped stop. The cylinder rod of the S-pole vertical push positioning cylinder extends towards the middle bend of the first Z-shaped stop, and is used to push the S-pole magnetic block, after being pushed by the S-pole horizontal push positioning cylinder, towards the connection between the horizontal bend and the middle bend at the bottom of the first Z-shaped stop, so that the S-pole magnetic block is fixed at the S-pole magnetic block picking position. The cylinder rod of the S-pole magnetic strip separating cylinder extends towards the S-pole magnetic strip guide groove, and is used to push the S-pole magnetic strip pushed to the top of the platform into the S-pole magnetic strip guide groove to guide its unloading and collection.
[0011] Preferably, the N-pole positioning assembly includes an N-pole horizontal pushing positioning cylinder, an N-pole vertical pushing positioning cylinder, an N-pole positioning block, and an N-pole magnetic strip separating cylinder, all fixedly mounted on the magnetic block separating platform plate. The N-pole positioning block includes a second Z-shaped stop and a second vertical stop. The second Z-shaped stop is fixedly connected to the magnetic block separating platform plate at a corner position symmetrical to the first Z-shaped stop. The second vertical stop and the horizontal bend at the top of the second Z-shaped stop are parallel and spaced apart, forming an N-pole magnetic strip guide groove between them. The cylinder rod of the N-pole horizontal pushing positioning cylinder extends towards the horizontal bend at the bottom of the second Z-shaped stop, used to push the cylinder towards the magnetic block separating platform. The N-pole magnetic block above the platform plate is pushed towards the horizontal bend at the bottom of the second Z-shaped stop, so that the N-pole magnetic block abuts against the horizontal bend at the bottom of the second Z-shaped stop. The cylinder rod of the N-pole vertical push positioning cylinder extends towards the middle bend of the second Z-shaped stop, and is used to push the N-pole magnetic block after being pushed by the N-pole horizontal push positioning cylinder towards the connection between the horizontal bend and the middle bend at the bottom of the second Z-shaped stop, so that the N-pole magnetic block is fixed at the N-pole magnetic block picking position. The cylinder rod of the N-pole magnetic strip separating cylinder extends towards the N-pole magnetic strip guide groove, and is used to push the N-pole magnetic strip pushed to the top of the platform into the N-pole magnetic strip guide groove to guide its unloading and collection.
[0012] Preferably, the shape of the S-pole magnetic block picking position matches the shape of the S-pole magnetic block, and the shape of the N-pole magnetic block picking position matches the shape of the N-pole magnetic block.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial technical effects of the present invention are as follows: 1) By setting the pushing component and the positioning component on the upper and lower sides of the magnetic block separation platform plate respectively, the pushing path is short and there is no need to transfer it in the middle. This effectively avoids the problem of adsorption or displacement caused by the magnetic interaction of strong magnetic blocks during movement. At the same time, the transmission method of motor-driven lead screw and the support structure at both ends ensure the smoothness of the lifting and lowering of the support block and the self-locking ability, making the entire pushing process precise and controllable, and greatly improving the stability and safety of the equipment operation. 2) In the positioning components of the S and N poles, the present invention adopts a two-step positioning method with the horizontal and vertical cylinders moving in sequence, and uses the special structure of the Z-shaped stop to achieve coarse and fine positioning of the magnetic block. This not only eliminates the rotation or position deviation that may occur during the upward pushing of the magnetic block, but also accurately fixes the magnetic block in the material picking position that matches the shape, thereby providing a high-precision position guarantee for subsequent automated material picking, and effectively improving the yield and production efficiency of magnetic block assembly. 3) By setting magnetic isolation strips between stacked magnetic blocks and integrating magnetic isolation strip guide grooves and separation cylinders in the positioning component, the present invention realizes automatic identification and classification recycling of magnetic blocks and magnetic isolation strips. This solves the technical problem that strong magnetic blocks are difficult to separate one by one due to mutual attraction, and avoids the safety hazards of manual separation. This makes the entire magnetic block supply process highly automated, significantly reduces labor intensity and improves the continuity of operation. Attached Figure Description

[0017] To make the technical problems to be solved, the technical solutions, and the beneficial effects of the present invention clearer, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.
[0018] like Figure 1-3 As shown, an upward-pushing magnetic block separation structure includes a magnetic block separation platform plate 21, an S-pole upward-pushing assembly and an N-pole upward-pushing assembly disposed below the magnetic block separation platform plate 21, and an S-pole positioning assembly and an N-pole positioning assembly disposed above the magnetic block separation platform plate 21. The S-pole pushing assembly includes an S-pole pushing drive, an S-pole fixing groove 5, and an S-pole support block 3 slidably disposed in the S-pole fixing groove 5. The S-pole fixing groove 5 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the magnetic block separation platform plate 21, and the top end of the S-pole fixing groove 5 passes through the magnetic block separation platform plate 21 and communicates with its upper surface. The S-pole pushing drive is disposed at the bottom end of the S-pole fixing groove 5 and is used to drive the S-pole support block 3 to move vertically up and down in the S-pole fixing groove 5. The N-pole pushing assembly includes an N-pole pushing drive, an N-pole fixing groove 6, and an N-pole support block 4 slidably disposed in the N-pole fixing groove 6. The N-pole fixing groove 6 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the magnetic block separation platform plate 21, and the N-pole fixing groove 6 and the S-pole fixing groove 5 are symmetrically arranged. The top end of the N-pole fixing groove 6 passes through the magnetic block separation platform plate 21 and communicates with its upper surface. The N-pole pushing drive is disposed at the bottom end of the N-pole fixing groove 6 and is used to drive the N-pole support block 4 to move vertically up and down in the N-pole fixing groove 6. The S-pole support block 3 and N-pole support block 4 are used to push the stacked S-pole magnetic blocks 9 and N-pole magnetic blocks 10 to the top of the magnetic block separation platform plate 21, respectively. The S-pole positioning component and the N-pole positioning component are used to separate the S-pole magnetic blocks 9 and N-pole magnetic blocks 10 pushed to the top of the platform one by one and fix them to the corresponding picking positions.
[0019] Specifically, the magnetic block separation platform plate 21 serves as the mounting base for the entire structure. Symmetrically arranged below it are S-pole pushing components and N-pole pushing components, while correspondingly arranged above are S-pole positioning components and N-pole positioning components, forming a complete magnetic block pushing and separation positioning work line. The S-pole fixing groove 5 and N-pole fixing groove 6 are fixed to the bottom of the magnetic block separation platform plate 21 and communicate with its upper surface. This structure allows the S-pole support block 3 and N-pole support block 4 located within the fixing grooves to push the stacked magnetic blocks directly from below to above the platform plate, preventing the magnetic blocks from shifting or colliding during transfer. The S-pole support block 3 and N-pole support block 4, as components directly supporting the magnetic blocks, have their lifting movements independently controlled by corresponding pushing drive components, enabling the alternating pushing of the S-pole magnetic block 9 and the N-pole magnetic block 10, providing a foundation for subsequent separation positioning. This structure separates the pushing component and the positioning component and places them on the upper and lower sides of the platform plate, making the pushing path of the magnetic block short and direct. This effectively reduces the attraction or repulsion interference caused by the magnetic interaction of the strong magnetic block during movement, and improves the stability and safety of pushing the magnetic block upward.
[0020] Specifically, the S-pole push-up drive component includes an S-pole motor mounting block 22, an S-pole push-up motor 1 fixedly mounted on the S-pole motor mounting block 22, and an S-pole push-up screw 7. The S-pole motor mounting block 22 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the S-pole fixing groove 5. One end of the S-pole push-up screw 7 is fixedly connected to the power output end of the S-pole push-up motor 1, and the other end of the S-pole push-up screw 7 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the magnetic block separation platform plate 21. The S-pole push-up screw 7 is threadedly connected to the S-pole support block 3. The S-pole push-up motor 1 drives the S-pole support block 3 to move vertically up and down within the S-pole fixing groove 5 through the S-pole push-up screw 7.
[0021] Specifically, the S-pole push-up drive uses a transmission method that combines a motor and a lead screw. The S-pole motor mounting block 22 acts as a connecting bridge between the motor and the fixed slot, ensuring the integrity and stability of the transmission mechanism. The lower end of the S-pole push-up lead screw 7 is connected to the motor output end, and the upper end is rotatably connected to the bottom of the magnetic block separation platform plate 21. This structure with support at both ends makes the lead screw rotate more smoothly, avoiding wobbling caused by excessive lead screw length. The S-pole support block 3 is threadedly connected to the lead screw, converting the rotational motion of the lead screw into the linear lifting motion of the support block. This transmission method has a self-locking characteristic. When the motor stops working, the S-pole support block 3 can stably stay in the current position, preventing positional deviation due to the gravity of the magnetic block or external forces, and ensuring precise control of the push-up stroke.
[0022] Specifically, the N-pole upward push drive includes an N-pole motor mounting block 23, an N-pole upward push motor 2 fixedly mounted on the N-pole motor mounting block 23, and an N-pole upward push screw 8. The N-pole motor mounting block 23 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the N-pole fixing groove 6. One end of the N-pole upward push screw 8 is fixedly connected to the power output end of the N-pole upward push motor 2, and the other end of the N-pole upward push screw 8 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the magnetic block separation platform plate 21. The N-pole upward push screw 8 is threadedly connected to the N-pole support block 4. The N-pole upward push motor 2 drives the N-pole support block 4 to move vertically up and down in the N-pole fixing groove 6 through the N-pole upward push screw 8.
[0023] Specifically, the N-pole upward push drive component and the S-pole upward push drive component have the same structure and are symmetrically arranged. This symmetrical layout ensures balanced force distribution and more coordinated operation of the entire device. The N-pole upward push motor 2 and the N-pole upward push screw 8 also adopt a two-end support installation method to ensure the smooth lifting and lowering of the N-pole support block 4. Since the S-pole magnetic block 9 and the N-pole magnetic block 10 have opposite magnetic poles, there is a strong attraction between them. Setting the upward push drive components independently and symmetrically can effectively avoid the problem of asynchronous movement of the two sides of the support blocks due to magnetic interference during the pushing process. The screw drive method can provide a large driving force, which is sufficient to overcome the magnetic force between strong magnetic blocks, ensuring that even when magnetic blocks with large magnetic energy products are stacked, the support block can still smoothly push the magnetic blocks upward.
[0024] Specifically, S-pole magnetic blocks 9 are stacked in the S-pole fixing groove 5, and an S-pole magnetic isolation strip 11 is provided between two adjacent S-pole magnetic blocks 9; N-pole magnetic blocks 10 are stacked in the N-pole fixing groove 6, and an N-pole magnetic isolation strip 12 is provided between two adjacent N-pole magnetic blocks 10.
[0025] Specifically, the alternating stacking of magnetic blocks and magnetic shielding strips is designed to address the problem of strong magnetic blocks being difficult to separate due to mutual magnetic attraction. The S-pole magnetic shielding strip 11 and N-pole magnetic shielding strip 12 are typically made of plastic or other non-magnetic materials, with sufficient thickness to block magnetic lines of force between adjacent magnetic blocks, ensuring each block is in a relatively independent magnetically isolated state during stacking. This stacking method not only facilitates the storage and transportation of magnetic blocks but, more importantly, creates conditions for subsequent individual upward separation. When the S-pole support block 3 is pushed upwards, the topmost S-pole magnetic block 9 or S-pole magnetic shielding strip 11 is pushed out. Due to the isolation effect of the magnetic shielding strip, the lower magnetic blocks do not strongly attract the upper ones, allowing the pushed-out individual magnetic block or magnetic shielding strip to easily separate from the stack, avoiding the problem of multiple magnetic blocks being carried out simultaneously due to magnetic attraction.
[0026] Specifically, the S-pole positioning assembly includes an S-pole horizontal push positioning cylinder 13, an S-pole vertical push positioning cylinder 17, an S-pole positioning block 19, and an S-pole magnetic strip separating cylinder 15, all fixedly mounted on the magnetic block separating platform plate 21. The S-pole positioning block 19 includes a first Z-shaped stop and a first vertical stop. The first Z-shaped stop is fixedly connected to one corner of the magnetic block separating platform plate 21. The first vertical stop and the first Z-shaped stop are parallel to and spaced apart by the horizontal bend at the top of the first Z-shaped stop, forming an S-pole magnetic strip guide groove between them. The cylinder rod of the S-pole horizontal push positioning cylinder 13 extends towards the horizontal bend at the bottom of the first Z-shaped stop, and is used to push the S-pole to the top of the magnetic block separating platform plate 21. The S-pole magnetic block 9 is pushed towards the horizontal bend at the bottom of the first Z-shaped stop, so that the S-pole magnetic block 9 abuts against the horizontal bend at the bottom of the first Z-shaped stop. The cylinder rod of the S-pole vertical push positioning cylinder 17 extends towards the middle bend of the first Z-shaped stop, and is used to push the S-pole magnetic block 9, which has been pushed by the S-pole horizontal push positioning cylinder 13, towards the connection between the horizontal bend and the middle bend at the bottom of the first Z-shaped stop, so that the S-pole magnetic block 9 is fixed at the S-pole magnetic block picking position. The cylinder rod of the S-pole magnetic strip separating cylinder 15 extends towards the S-pole magnetic strip guide groove, and is used to push the S-pole magnetic strip 11 pushed to the top of the platform into the S-pole magnetic strip guide groove to guide its unloading and collection.
[0027] Specifically, after the S-pole support block 3 pushes the S-pole magnetic block 9 above the platform plate, the S-pole horizontal positioning cylinder 13 first activates, pushing it laterally towards the horizontal bend at the bottom of the first Z-shaped stop block, completing the first coarse positioning. Then, the S-pole vertical positioning cylinder 17 activates, pushing it longitudinally to the connection between the horizontal bend and the middle bend, completing the second fine positioning. This two-step positioning method effectively eliminates any rotation or offset that may occur during the pushing process, ensuring that the magnetic block is ultimately fixed in the accurate position and orientation at the picking position. The first Z-shaped stop block has an ingenious structural design; its bottom horizontal bend serves to receive the magnetic block, while its top horizontal bend, together with the first vertical stop block, forms a magnetic strip guide groove, integrating the functions of magnetic block positioning and magnetic strip guidance. When the S-pole magnetic strip 11 is pushed up, the S-pole magnetic strip separating cylinder 15 directly pushes it into the guide groove, and the magnetic strip slides down the guide groove to the collection point, achieving automatic sorting of the magnetic block and the magnetic strip.
[0028] Specifically, the N-pole positioning assembly includes an N-pole horizontal pushing positioning cylinder 14, an N-pole vertical pushing positioning cylinder 18, an N-pole positioning block 20, and an N-pole magnetic strip separating cylinder 16, all fixedly mounted on the magnetic block separating platform plate 21. The N-pole positioning block 20 includes a second Z-shaped stop and a second vertical stop. The second Z-shaped stop is fixedly connected to the magnetic block separating platform plate 21 at a corner position symmetrical to the first Z-shaped stop. The second vertical stop and the horizontal bend at the top of the second Z-shaped stop are parallel and spaced apart, forming an N-pole magnetic strip guide groove between them. The cylinder rod of the N-pole horizontal pushing positioning cylinder 14 extends towards the horizontal bend at the bottom of the second Z-shaped stop, used to push the magnetic strip to the magnetic block separating platform plate 21. The N-pole magnetic block 10 above the platform 21 is pushed towards the horizontal bend at the bottom of the second Z-shaped stop, so that the N-pole magnetic block 10 abuts against the horizontal bend at the bottom of the second Z-shaped stop. The cylinder rod of the N-pole vertical push positioning cylinder 18 extends towards the middle bend of the second Z-shaped stop, and is used to push the N-pole magnetic block 10, which has been pushed by the N-pole horizontal push positioning cylinder 14, towards the connection between the horizontal bend and the middle bend at the bottom of the second Z-shaped stop, so that the N-pole magnetic block 10 is fixed at the N-pole magnetic block picking position. The cylinder rod of the N-pole magnetic strip separating cylinder 16 extends towards the N-pole magnetic strip guide groove, and is used to push the N-pole magnetic strip 12 pushed to the top of the platform into the N-pole magnetic strip guide groove to guide its unloading and collection.
[0029] Specifically, the N-pole positioning component and the S-pole positioning component have the same structure and are symmetrically arranged at the other corner of the magnetic block separation platform plate 21. This symmetrical layout ensures that the force is evenly distributed on both sides during operation, and facilitates material handling by the robot or material handling device at a fixed position. The second Z-shaped stop and the second vertical stop of the N-pole positioning block 20 also form a composite structure integrating positioning and guidance. The sequential action of the N-pole horizontal push positioning cylinder 14 and the N-pole vertical push positioning cylinder 18 achieves precise secondary positioning of the N-pole magnetic block 10, ensuring that it can be accurately fixed at the N-pole magnetic block picking position. Since the S-pole magnetic block 9 and the N-pole magnetic block 10 have opposite magnetic poles, setting their picking positions on opposite sides of the platform plate maximizes the distance between them, effectively reducing interference caused by mutual attraction or repulsion of magnetic forces on the picking process and improving the success rate of automated material handling.
[0030] Specifically, the shape of the S-pole magnetic block picking position matches the shape of the S-pole magnetic block 9, and the shape of the N-pole magnetic block picking position matches the shape of the N-pole magnetic block 10.
[0031] Specifically, the S-pole magnetic block picking position refers to the final position of the S-pole magnetic block 9 after being positioned twice by horizontal and vertical pushing. This position is defined by the connection between the horizontal bend and the middle bend at the bottom of the first Z-shaped stop, and its outline matches the shape of the S-pole magnetic block 9. Similarly, the N-pole magnetic block picking position is defined by the connection between the horizontal bend and the middle bend at the bottom of the second Z-shaped stop, and its outline matches the shape of the N-pole magnetic block 10.
[0032] The process of using this invention is as follows: First, alternating S-pole magnetic blocks 9 and S-pole magnetic insulating strips 11 are stacked in the S-pole fixing groove 5, and alternating N-pole magnetic blocks 10 and N-pole magnetic insulating strips 12 are stacked in the N-pole fixing groove 6. At this time, the S-pole support block 3 is located at the bottom of the S-pole fixing groove 5 and supports the entire stack. The N-pole support block 4 is located at the bottom of the N-pole fixing groove 6 and supports another stack. After the equipment is started, the control system first instructs the S-pole push motor 1 to work according to the preset program. The S-pole push motor 1 drives the S-pole push screw 7 to rotate. Since the S-pole push screw 7 is threadedly connected to the S-pole support block 3, and the two ends of the S-pole push screw 7 are respectively rotatably connected to the S-pole push motor 1 and the magnetic block separation platform plate 21, the S-pole support block 3 rises vertically in the S-pole fixing groove 5 under the action of the threaded transmission, thereby pushing the first material located at the top of the stack to the top of the magnetic block separation platform plate 21. Secondly, when the first material is pushed above the magnetic block separation platform plate 21, the control system detects whether the material is an S-pole magnetic block 9 or an S-pole magnetic barrier strip 11 through a sensor. If it is detected as an S-pole magnetic barrier strip 11, the control system commands the S-pole magnetic barrier strip separation cylinder 15 to operate. Its cylinder rod extends to push the S-pole magnetic barrier strip 11 into the S-pole magnetic barrier strip guide groove formed by the first Z-shaped block and the first vertical block. The S-pole magnetic barrier strip 11 slides down along the guide groove to the designated collection position, completing the automatic unloading of the magnetic barrier strip. If it is detected as an S-pole magnetic block 9, the S-pole horizontal push positioning cylinder 13 first operates. Its cylinder rod extends to push the S-pole magnetic block 9 towards the horizontal bend at the bottom of the first Z-shaped block, so that one side of the S-pole magnetic block 9 abuts against the horizontal bend, completing the horizontal coarse positioning. Next, after the S-pole magnetic block 9 completes the horizontal coarse positioning, the control system then instructs the S-pole vertical push positioning cylinder 17 to move. Its cylinder rod extends and pushes the S-pole magnetic block 9 toward the middle bend of the first Z-shaped stop, so that the S-pole magnetic block 9 is precisely pushed to the connection point between the bottom horizontal bend and the middle bend, that is, the S-pole magnetic block picking position. At this time, the shape of the S-pole magnetic block 9 is perfectly matched with the shape of the picking position and is precisely fixed, waiting for the robot or other picking device to pick up the material. During the pushing and positioning process on the S-pole side, the components on the N-pole side remain in standby state or work alternately according to the program. Then, after the S-pole magnetic block 9 is removed, the S-pole push motor 1 drives the S-pole support block 3 to rise again, pushing the next material in the stack to the top of the platform, and repeating the above identification and separation process; at the same time, the control system will instruct the N-pole push motor 2 to work, the N-pole push motor 2 drives the N-pole push screw 8 to rotate, driving the N-pole support block 4 to rise vertically in the N-pole fixed groove 6, pushing the material stacked on the N-pole side to the top of the magnetic block separation platform plate 21, and similarly, the sensor identifies whether it is the N-pole magnetic block 10 or the N-pole magnetic shielding strip 12. If it is the N-pole magnetic shielding strip 12, the N-pole magnetic shielding strip separation cylinder 16 pushes it into the N-pole magnetic shielding strip guide groove formed by the second Z-shaped block and the second vertical block for collection; Finally, for the N-pole magnetic block 10, the N-pole horizontal positioning cylinder 14 first moves to push it to the horizontal bend at the bottom of the second Z-shaped stop to complete coarse positioning. Then, the N-pole vertical positioning cylinder 18 moves to precisely push it to the connection between the horizontal bend and the middle bend at the bottom of the second Z-shaped stop, which is the N-pole magnetic block picking position. This ensures that the shape of the N-pole magnetic block 10 is perfectly matched with the shape of the picking position and is fixed, waiting to be picked up. This process is repeated. The S-pole pushing assembly and the N-pole pushing assembly work alternately or synchronously under the coordination of the control system. They push the S-pole magnetic blocks 9 and S-pole magnetic insulating strips 11, which are originally stacked alternately, and the N-pole magnetic blocks 10 and N-pole magnetic insulating strips 12 one by one to the top of the platform. They also automatically complete the precise separation and positioning of the magnetic blocks and the classification and recycling of the magnetic insulating strips, thereby achieving efficient, stable and automated supply of magnetic blocks.
