[0034] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0035] Please see Figure 1-8 This invention provides a technical solution: an automatic material feeding system and its receiving device, such as... Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the device includes a first feeding structure 1, which includes a base 11. An angle adjustment component 12 and a support component 14 are mounted on the base 11. A first conveyor body 13 is rotatably connected between the support component 14 and the angle adjustment component 12, and is used to adjust the height of the left side of the first conveyor body 13. An angle sensor 15 is mounted on the first conveyor body 13. A position adjustment component 16 is mounted on the right side of the base 11. A first support frame 17 is mounted on the upper side of the position adjustment component 16. A second conveyor body 18 is mounted on the upper side of the first support frame 17. The angle adjustment component 12 includes... The system includes a first driving component 121, on which a first support block 122 is mounted, and a first connecting plate 123 is rotatably connected to the first support block 122. The support assembly 14 includes a second connecting plate 141, on which a second support block 142 is rotatably connected, and a fixing rod 143 is mounted on the second support block 142. The position adjustment assembly 16 includes a base plate 161, on which a power source 162 is mounted. The power source 162 drives the gear 163 to rotate and drives the rack 164 to move. The movement of the rack 164 causes the slide plate 165 to slide on the base plate 161.

[0036] Among them, a PLC control device for controlling the overall equipment is installed on the base 11, and the first driving component 121 is a hydraulic cylinder, which is existing technology;

[0037] Specifically, dust hoods are installed at both ends of the first conveyor body 13. The dust hoods are connected to a small vacuum cleaner through a dust conveying pipe. The small vacuum cleaner is existing technology, which can suck up dust and improve the quality of the operating environment.

[0038] Multiple dust hoods are provided, and the multiple dust hoods are distributed at equal distances at both ends of the first conveyor body 13.

[0039] The angle sensor 15 is model B2N45H-Q20L60-2LI2-H1151. The data monitored by the angle sensor 15 is transmitted to the processor for processing. The processed data is then transmitted to the PLC control device. With the assistance of the PLC control device, the angle on the left side of the first conveyor body 13 is monitored, so that the height can be adjusted later as needed.

[0040] Furthermore, the first connecting plate 123 and the second connecting plate 141 are both installed on the first conveyor body 13. A U-shaped frame is installed on the first conveyor body 13, and an automatic counter is installed on the U-shaped frame. The automatic counter is existing technology, thereby automatically counting the quantity of materials.

[0041] In the above scheme, with the assistance of the PLC control device, the first conveyor body 13, angle sensor 15, first drive component 121 and second conveyor body 18 are started. With the assistance of the second conveyor body 18, the material is moved. The material falls from the second conveyor body 18 onto the first conveyor body 13 between the angle adjustment component 12 and the support component 14 on the upper side of the base 11. With the assistance of the first conveyor body 13, it is conveyed and falls onto the receiving structure 2. If stacking is required, it is stretched with the assistance of the first drive component 121. The stretching of the first drive component 121 drives the first support block 122 to rotate on the first connecting plate 123, thereby driving the left side of the first conveyor body 13 to adjust the height to the required position. The rotation of the first conveyor body 13 drives the second connecting plate 141 to rotate on the second support block 142 on the upper side of the fixed rod 143, thereby facilitating the subsequent stacking of materials between the baffles 222 on the third conveyor body 221.

[0042] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 8 As shown, a receiving structure 2 is provided on the right side of the first feeding structure 1 for receiving materials. The receiving structure 2 includes a second support frame 21, on which a receiving component 22 is installed. A pushing component 23 is provided on the right side of the receiving component 22 for unloading materials. A fourth conveyor body 24 is provided on the left side of the receiving component 22. The receiving component 22 includes a third conveyor body 221, on which a partition plate 222 and a baffle 223 are installed. The baffle 223 is located to the left of the partition plate 222. The pushing component 23 includes a limiting baffle 231, on which a second driving component 232 is installed. A pushing plate 233 is installed on the second driving component 232.

[0043] Among them, multiple sets of partition plates 222 are installed on the third conveyor body 221, and the multiple sets of partition plates 222 are distributed at equal intervals on the third conveyor body 221.

[0044] Specifically, both the push component 23 and the fourth conveyor belt body 24 are provided in two sets, and the two sets of push components 23 and the fourth conveyor belt body 24 are arranged in parallel.

[0045] Furthermore, the second drive component 232 is a hydraulic cylinder, which is existing technology;

[0046] In the above scheme, with the assistance of the PLC control device, the third conveyor body 221, the second drive unit 232 and the fourth conveyor body 24 are started. With the assistance of the third conveyor body 221, the material between the partition plates 222 is moved to the required position on the left side of the pusher plate 233. The baffle 223 is set to block the material. With the assistance of the second drive unit 232 on the limit baffle 231, the pusher plate 233 is moved. The pusher plate 233 moves to unload the stacked material. Finally, the material moves to the fourth conveyor body 24. Finally, with the assistance of the fourth conveyor body 24, the material is moved to the required position.

[0047] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, a second feeding structure 3 is installed on the first feeding structure 1 and is used to convey and feed granular materials. The second feeding structure 3 includes a storage component 31. A first hopper 32 is provided on the lower side of the storage component 31. The storage component 31 includes a fixed steel plate 311. The fixed steel plate 311 is embedded in the first conveyor body 13. A threaded hole 312 is opened on the fixed steel plate 311. A screw 313 is internally threaded into the threaded hole 312. A receiving hopper 314 is installed on the screw 313.

[0048] Among them, the fixing steel plate 311 is embedded and fixed on the first conveyor body 13, and the fixing steel plate 311 is flush with the surface of the first conveyor body 13 and on the same horizontal plane;

[0049] Specifically, the power source 162 is a stepper motor, which is existing technology;

[0050] In the preferred embodiment, the power source 162 is started with the assistance of the PLC control device. The power source 162, acting on the base plate 161, drives the gear 163 to rotate. The rotation of the gear 163 drives the rack 164 to move, which in turn drives the slide plate 165 to move on the base plate 161. This, in turn, drives the second conveyor body 18 to move to the right via the first support frame 17, thereby separating the second conveyor body 18 from the first conveyor body 13. This facilitates the subsequent feeding of granular materials, and the screw on the receiving hopper 314... 313 passes through the threaded hole 312 on the fixed steel plate 311. The rotating receiving hopper 314 limits the thread of the screw 313 on the lower side of the receiving hopper 314 to the threaded hole 312. Thus, bolts or other granular materials are weighed quantitatively by an automatic weighing machine and fall into the receiving hopper 314 in sequence. When the first conveyor body 13 moves, it drives the granular materials in the receiving hopper 314 to move and finally fall into the first leakage hopper 32. Finally, the materials fall onto the electronic belt scale body 43 through the first leakage hopper 32, which is convenient for re-weighing later.

[0051] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, a weighing and equalizing structure 4 is provided on the lower side of the second feeding structure 3 and is used to weigh and equalize granular materials. The weighing and equalizing structure 4 includes a connecting frame 41, on which a placement groove 42 and an electronic belt scale body 43 are installed. The placement groove 42 is located on the left side of the electronic belt scale body 43. A second hopper 44 is provided at the lower front end of the electronic belt scale body 43 and is installed on the connecting frame 41. An automatic equalizing component 45 is installed on the upper side of the connecting frame 41 and is used for equalizing materials. The automatic equalizing component 45 includes a rotating part 451 and a robotic arm body 452 is installed on the upper side of the rotating part 451.

[0052] Among them, the electronic belt scale body 43 and the automatic bagging heat sealing machine body 46 are both existing technologies. The rotating part 451 includes a storage box, a motor and a rotating rod. The motor is installed in the storage box. The motor drives the rotating rod to rotate. The rotation of the rotating rod drives the robot body 452 to rotate.

[0053] Specifically, the robotic arm body 452 is a WOMMER electric gripper; model: OnRobot3FG25;

[0054] Furthermore, a cross-shaped partition plate 222 is installed inside the placement tank 42, thereby dividing the placement tank 42 into multiple storage tanks, which facilitates the classification and storage of different particulate materials as needed in the later stage.

[0055] In the preferred embodiment, the electronic belt scale body 43, rotating component 451, robotic arm body 452, and automatic bagging and heat-sealing machine body 46 are started with the assistance of the PLC control device. Due to the low accuracy of manual feeding, the electronic belt scale body 43 is used to weigh the material again. The weighed data is transmitted to the PLC control device, and the data is compared with the data with the assistance of the PLC control device. If there is too much granular material such as bolts, the rotating component 451 and robotic arm body 452 are used to clamp the bolts and place them in the corresponding placement slot 42 on the connecting frame 41. Similarly, if there is too little of the same type of granular material, the robotic arm body 452 is used to automatically feed the material to ensure the accuracy of the granular material. The weighed granular material falls through the electronic belt scale body 43 into the second hopper 44, and then into the sealing bag in the automatic bagging and heat-sealing machine body 46 for automatic sealing.

[0056] Working principle: When using this automatic material feeding system and its receiving device, the external power supply is turned on, the material is transported and fed through the first feeding structure 1, the material is received and unloaded with the assistance of the receiving structure 2, the granular material is conveyed and fed with the assistance of the second feeding structure 3, and the granular material is weighed, uniformly packed, and heat-sealed with the assistance of the weighing and equalizing structure 4.
