[0020] Reference Figures 1 to 3 , a connector automatic loading mechanism, comprising a conveying mechanism 1, a loading unit 2 arranged at the end of the conveying mechanism, and a pushing unit 3 for pushing the conveying mechanism product into the loading unit;

[0021] The charging unit 2 includes a mounting bracket 21, a charging box mounting groove 22 arranged on the mounting bracket 21, a charging box limiting assembly 23 arranged on the side walls of both sides of the mounting bracket 21, a material changing box assembly 24 arranged at the rear end of the mounting bracket 21, and a material receiving box 25 arranged at the front end of the mounting bracket 21;

[0022] A column 221 is arranged beside the charging box installation groove 22, and a shaft sleeve 222 is sleeved on the column. A limit plate 223 is fixed to the shaft sleeve by screws, and the limit plate is placed at the notch of the charging box installation groove 22; the charging box with a matching installation connector is placed in the groove of the charging box installation groove 22, and the charging boxes are stacked in the groove. The shaft sleeve can move up and down along the column and is adjusted according to the number of charging boxes. It is first moved to the top to facilitate the placement of the box. After placement, it is moved down to the notch for limiting and providing a pressure. When the bottom box is full and removed, the limit plate gives pressure to make the next box fall down for loading.

[0023] The charging box limiting assembly 23 and the changing box assembly 24 are arranged in front and back correspondence; an avoidance hole 231 is opened on the mounting bracket 21 to avoid the charging box limiting assembly 23, and the charging box limiting assembly 23 includes a limiting cylinder 232 and a limiting block 233 arranged on the limiting cylinder. The limiting block is placed in the avoiding hole, and the limiting block 233 is driven by the limiting cylinder to move up and down, thereby limiting the front end of the material box;

[0024] A stopper 234 is also provided at the end of the mounting bracket 21 to limit the other end of the material box;

[0025] The material changing box assembly 24 is provided with a material changing cylinder 241 on the mounting bracket 21, a mounting plate 242 driven by the material changing cylinder, and a material changing plate 243 connected to the mounting plate through a connecting block and placed on the mounting bracket 21. The material changing plate 243 is provided at the rear end of the material box and plays a limiting role at the same time. The material changing plate, the stopper and the limiting block 233 are used to limit the three sides of the material box, so as to ensure its position and ensure that the pushing unit can accurately send the connector to the material box for loading. When the material box is full of products, the limiting cylinder 232 drives the inner block 233 to move downward, and the material changing cylinder 241 drives the material changing plate 243 to move forward, so as to push the material box full of materials into the material receiving box 25, and then reset, and the material box in the slot falls down.

[0026] The pushing unit 3 includes a pushing bracket 31, a pushing slide rail 32 arranged on the pushing bracket, a pushing cylinder 33 arranged at one end of the pushing bracket and placed on one side of the pushing slide rail, a pushing block 34 installed on the pushing slide rail through a slider and driven by the pushing cylinder, and limit stops 35 arranged on both sides of the pushing slide rail;

[0027] In this embodiment, the assembled connector is transported along the conveying mechanism 1 and placed in the module. The push unit 3 is driven by the pushing cylinder to drive the pushing block 34 to push the assembled connector into the material box, one group at a time. After the material box is full, the loading box limit assembly 23 is driven, the limit cylinder 232 drives the internal block 233 to move downward, and the material changing cylinder 241 drives the material changing plate 243 to move forward, pushing the filled material box into the material receiving box 25, and then resetting, the material box in the slot falls down, and continues the next cycle.
