The present utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with the embodiments.

[0022] Please refer to Figure 1 to Figure 2The feeding device of the utility model comprises: a receiving component 21, on which a plurality of receiving positions are arranged, wherein the receiving component 21 is movably arranged so that each receiving position moves to the feeding port of the feeding device and receives the workpiece 100 from the feeding device; a workpiece transfer component 20, which is movably arranged and has a plurality of picking parts 201, so that when the workpiece transfer component 20 moves to the receiving component 21, the plurality of workpieces 100 on the plurality of receiving positions are picked up by the plurality of picking parts 201, and when the workpiece transfer component 20 moves to the target position, the plurality of workpieces 100 are placed at the target position by the plurality of picking parts 201. The feeding device adopting this structural design can sequentially move the plurality of receiving positions on the receiving component 21 to the feeding port of the feeding device when the receiving component 21 moves, thereby receiving a plurality of workpieces 100 at one time. After the receiving component 21 receives multiple workpieces, the multiple picking parts 201 of the workpiece transfer component 20 can pick up multiple workpieces 100 on the workpiece transfer component 20 at one time, and then load the multiple workpieces 100 to the target position. The loading device with this structural design can load multiple workpieces 100 at one time, effectively improving the loading speed of the workpieces, and solving the technical problem of low loading efficiency of the loading device in the related art.

[0023] According to actual use requirements, the workpiece 100 can be any type of workpiece, as long as the loading device can realize synchronous loading of multiple workpieces 100. The loading process is to receive multiple workpieces 100 from the feeding device and transfer the multiple workpieces 100 to the target position at one time. For example, in a specific embodiment, the workpiece 100 is a sleeve, so that the multiple sleeves are transferred to the target position at one time by the loading device.

[0024] The target position can also be any position, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the workpiece 100 is a sleeve, and the target position is a sleeve supporting structure 11 for supporting the sleeve.

[0025] The material receiving component 21 is movably arranged along the first direction, and a plurality of material receiving positions are arranged at intervals on the material receiving component 21 along the first direction; the feeding device includes a first driving component 22, and the first driving component 22 is connected to the material receiving component 21 to drive the material receiving component 21 to move along the first direction through the first driving component 22. In this embodiment, the first driving component 22 is designed to drive the material receiving component 21 to move along the first direction, so as to send the corresponding material receiving position to the feeding port to receive the workpiece 100. In actual implementation, the first driving component 22 can have a variety of structural options, as long as it can drive the material receiving component 21 to move along the first direction, for example, the first driving component 22 includes a cylinder, an electric cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder, a screw nut structure, a gear rack structure, etc.

[0026] In this embodiment, the multiple material receiving positions include a first material receiving position and a second material receiving position. The first driving component 22 is a first cylinder. When the first cylinder is extended to the limit, the first material receiving position moves to the feed port. When the first cylinder is shortened to the limit, the second material receiving position moves to the feed port. The first material receiving position and the second material receiving position are designed on the material receiving component 21. The first driving component 22 is a first cylinder. When the first cylinder is working, there will be two extreme positions, namely the extension limit and the shortening limit. When the first cylinder is in these two extreme positions, the corresponding first material receiving position or the second material receiving position will move to the feed port. In this embodiment, the first cylinder is used to drive the material receiving component 21 to move, and it is designed in conjunction with the docking material position, so that the first cylinder and the material receiving component 21 can work together efficiently, effectively improving the material receiving speed of the material receiving component.

[0027] The loading device also includes a second driving component 23, which is connected to the receiving component 21 so as to drive the receiving component 21 to move to a preset position through the second driving component 23, wherein when the receiving component 21 is in the preset position, the first receiving position and the second receiving position are both offset relative to the feed port. In this embodiment, on the basis of designing the first cylinder as the first driving component 22, the second driving component 23 is additionally designed. Since the first cylinder has only two stop positions when working, by adding the second driving component 23, the receiving component 21 can be driven by the second driving component 23 to stay at other positions, i.e., the preset position. At this time, the first receiving position and the second receiving position are both offset relative to the feed port, which can effectively prevent the workpiece 100 subsequently supplied from the feed port from interfering with the workpiece picking operation at the first receiving position and the second receiving position, and ensure that the material picking portion 201 of the workpiece transfer component 20 can smoothly pick up the workpiece 100 at the first receiving position and the second receiving position.

[0028] The second driving component 23 is a second cylinder, wherein when the second cylinder is extended to the limit, the material receiving component 21 moves to the preset position, or when the second cylinder is shortened to the limit, the material receiving component 21 moves to the preset position.

[0029] In this embodiment, the second driving component 23 is a second cylinder, which drives the material receiving component 21 to move to the above-mentioned preset position when it is at the extension limit or the shortening limit. In this embodiment, through the cooperation of the first cylinder and the second cylinder, a rapid coordinated action can be achieved to ensure the smoothness and efficiency of the feeding operation.

[0030] In this embodiment, the loading device includes a first sliding guide assembly 24, which extends along the first direction. The material receiving component 21 is installed on the first sliding guide assembly 24 to guide the movement of the material receiving component 21 along the first direction through the first sliding guide assembly 24.

[0031] In actual implementation, the specific form of the first sliding guide assembly 24 can be flexibly selected according to actual conditions, as long as it can guide the movement of the butt joint component 21 along the first direction to make its movement more accurate and stable. For example, the first sliding guide assembly 24 is a slide rail slider structure, a guide shaft and a guide sleeve structure, etc.

[0032] The loading device includes a third driving component 25 and a fourth driving component 26. The third driving component 25 is connected to the fourth driving component 26 so as to drive the fourth driving component 26 to move in the second direction through the third driving component 25. The fourth driving component 26 is connected to the workpiece transfer component 20 so as to drive the workpiece transfer component 20 to move in the third direction through the fourth driving component 26. The first direction, the second direction and the third direction are three different directions.

[0033] In this embodiment, the loading device also includes a third driving component 25 and a fourth driving component 26, which work together. The third driving component 25 drives the fourth driving component 26 to move in the second direction, and the fourth driving component 26 drives the workpiece transfer component 20 to move in the third direction, so that the workpiece transfer component 20 can be flexibly moved between the receiving component 21 and the target position, thereby realizing the picking and placing of the workpiece 100.

[0034] The feeding device includes a second sliding guide assembly 27, which is extended along the second direction, and the fourth driving component 26 is installed on the second sliding guide assembly 27, so that the movement of the fourth driving component 26 along the second direction is guided by the second sliding guide assembly 27. By designing the second sliding guide assembly 27, the movement of the fourth driving component 26 along the second direction can be guided, so that the movement is more stable and accurate. Similarly, the specific form of the second sliding guide assembly 27 can also be flexibly selected, such as the above-mentioned slide rail slider structure, guide shaft and guide sleeve structure, etc.

[0035] The feeding device includes a plurality of detection components 28, and the plurality of detection components 28 correspond to the plurality of material receiving positions one by one, so as to detect whether there is a workpiece 100 at the corresponding material receiving position through each detection component 28. In this embodiment, by designing a plurality of detection components 28, each detection component 28 can detect whether there is a workpiece 100 at the corresponding material receiving position, thereby accurately controlling the feeding situation of the workpiece 100 and reducing the risk of leakage.

[0036] In this embodiment, the material taking part 201 is a pneumatic clamp, and the feeding device includes a material stopper 29, and a avoidance port is provided on the material stopper 29, and the position of the avoidance port corresponds to the position of the feeding port, wherein, at the same time, the avoidance port can only allow a single workpiece 100 to pass through. In this embodiment, the material taking part 201 adopts a start-up clamp structure, which can conveniently and quickly realize the grabbing and releasing operations of the workpiece 100. Of course, in actual implementation, according to the different types, shapes, and other characteristics of the workpiece 100, the material taking part 201 can also adopt other types of structures, such as an electromagnet structure, a fork structure, and the like.

[0037] By designing the material blocking member 29, the avoidance opening on the material blocking member 29 can only allow one workpiece 100 to pass through at the same time, thereby ensuring that a single receiving position only receives one workpiece 100, ensuring the orderly supply of the workpieces 100, and avoiding overfeeding.
