When sleeved, the protrusion (i.e., the ear) at the end of the retaining spring is placed in the positioning groove 311, and then falls naturally downward along the guide plate 2 and the limit groove 31, falls on the base 4, and is stacked layer by layer, so that the opening direction of each retaining spring is consistent, which is convenient for accurate single picking, and there is no need to adjust the direction, thereby improving efficiency, and the structure is simple and the cost is low.

[0027] Specifically, the support member 1 and the storage column 3 are both vertically arranged, the limiting groove 31 is vertically extended, and the base 4 is horizontally arranged; the guide plate 2 includes a fixed plate 21 and a partition plate 22, and the fixed plate 21 and the partition plate 22 are both vertically arranged and T-shaped; the fixed plate 21 and the partition plate 22 are perpendicular to each other, the fixed plate 21 is connected to the support member 1, and the partition plate 22 is connected to the middle of the limiting groove 31.

[0028] Specifically, the support member 1 is plate-shaped, and includes a supporting portion 11 and a connecting portion 12 that are fixedly connected to each other. The connecting portion 12 is detachably connected with a fixing screw 7 , and can be fixed to an external tooling through the fixing screw 7 .

[0029] Specifically, the support portion 11 is connected to the fixing plate 21 through the first bolts 5. The first bolts 5 are symmetrically distributed about the partition plate 22, and three of them are arranged at intervals on each side to improve the stability of the connection.

[0030] Specifically, the bottom of the support portion 11 is connected to the base 4 via the second bolts 6 , and the second bolts 6 are symmetrically arranged with respect to the partition plate 22 to improve the tightness of the connection.

[0031] Specifically, the first bolt 5 and the second bolt 6 are both connected by hexagon socket bolts and countersunk holes. The ends of the first bolt 5 and the second bolt 6 are sunk into the support portion 11 to avoid protruding from the support member 1. The surface of the support member 1 can be smoother and can be more conveniently installed on other tooling.

[0032] Specifically, a fixing platform 312 is provided in the middle of the limiting groove 31 , and the partition plate 22 is attached to the fixing platform 312 to achieve surface contact, so as to improve the stability of the connection and the anti-torsion performance.

The aperture of the assembly hole 32 is larger than the maximum diameter of the third bolt 8, and the third bolt 8 can be passed through the assembly hole 32 to connect the partition 22 and the partition 22 and the material storage column 3; at the same time, a small retaining spring 10 can be placed on the inner side of the mounting through hole, and the third bolt 8 protrudes from the inner wall of the mounting through hole. After placement, the opening of the small retaining spring 10 passes through the third bolt 8; correspondingly, a large retaining spring 9 is sleeved on the outer side of the material storage column 3.

[0034] Specifically, the base 4 and the storage column 3 are arranged on the same side of the support 1, and the projection of the base 4 in the vertical direction is U-shaped, with the opening of the U-shaped facing away from the support 1, which can prevent the storage column 3 from tipping over due to gravity and provide stable support.

[0035] Example 2

[0036] The difference from Example 1 is that the guide plate 2 does not include the fixing plate 21, and the partition plate 22 is integrally formed with the support member 1 and the base 4. Although the cost is increased, the connection strength is improved and the assembly time of the device is saved.
