Depending on the metal composition of the magnetic steel, its magnetic properties will be different, and thus its uses will also be different. At present, magnetic steel is generally manufactured by powder metallurgy, and in order to improve production efficiency, in the manufacturing process, it is usually processed into long strips, and then the magnetic strips are cut and segmented according to the actual required length; in order to improve cutting efficiency, multiple magnetic strips are usually stacked and then cut at the same time, and glue is applied to adjacent magnetic strips when stacking to ensure that the stacked magnetic strips will not deviate when cutting.

[0003] At present, glue is generally applied to the magnets one by one using a manual handheld glue gun, and then the glued magnets are stacked on the corresponding material tray with the glue facing downward. When the material tray is filled with magnets according to the set requirements, it is transferred to the next station. This manual gluing method is not only inefficient and labor-intensive, but also causes uneven glue application, and the stacking position on the material tray cannot be accurate and consistent, which to a certain extent affects the smooth progress of the next process.

[0022] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and understandable, the specific embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0023] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown, the utility model provides a double-station feeding mechanism, including a conveyor belt assembly 2 and a material dividing assembly. The conveyor belt assembly 2 is connected to the frame 1, specifically to the top plate of the frame 1; the conveyor belt assembly 2 is a conventional structure, used to realize automatic loading of the workpiece 19, specifically including a driving shaft and a driven shaft arranged at intervals on the top plate of the frame 1, and a conveyor belt matched to the outside of the driving shaft and the driven shaft, and the driving shaft is driven by a motor. For details, please refer to the loading assembly disclosed in patent CN219442136U, which has the same function, that is, to realize the loading of the workpiece 19, and will not be elaborated here.

[0024] In addition, such as Figure 1As shown, the material dividing assembly includes two positioning assemblies 3, a material stripping plate 5 and a driving assembly 4. The two positioning assemblies 3 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the discharge end of the conveyor belt assembly 2. The driving assembly 4 is arranged on the frame 1 and is located at the discharge end of the conveyor belt assembly 2. One end of the material stripping plate 5 is connected to the driving end of the driving assembly 4, and the other end of the material stripping plate 5 extends to the upper end of the conveyor belt assembly 2. The operation of the driving assembly 4 drives the material stripping plate 5 to move left and right, which is used to push the workpiece 19 on the discharge end of the conveyor belt assembly 2 to the two positioning assemblies 3 alternately left and right in turn. In actual application, the two positioning assemblies 3 enter the next workstation to work respectively (specifically described below), realizing one conveyor belt loading, and feeding from two channels to the next process, that is, double-station feeding, thereby improving work efficiency.

[0025] like Figure 2 As shown, a baffle plate 20 is arranged above the conveyor belt assembly on the frame 1, and the position where the workpiece 19 on the conveyor belt assembly 2 moves to abut against the baffle plate 20 is recorded as a pusher station; and a proximity switch for detecting the workpiece 19 is arranged on the baffle plate 20, and the proximity switch is electrically connected to the drive assembly 4. The baffle plate 20 is used to ensure that each workpiece 19 conveyed can be accurately positioned at the pusher station, and a proximity switch for detecting whether a workpiece 19 enters the pusher station is arranged on the baffle plate 20. When the proximity switch detects that the workpiece 19 enters the pusher station, a signal is transmitted to the drive assembly 4, and the drive assembly 4 drives the prying plate 5 to push the workpiece 19 on the pusher station horizontally into the corresponding positioning assembly 3. In this structure, the two ends of the baffle plate 20 are respectively connected to the two positioning assemblies 3, and a gap is left between the lower section of the baffle plate 20 and the upper surface of the conveyor belt to avoid friction between the conveyor belt and the baffle plate 20.

[0026] Preferably, the driving assembly 4 includes a rodless cylinder, which is arranged above the conveyor belt assembly 2 and perpendicular to its transmission direction. One end of the material removal plate 5 is connected to the slider 6 of the rodless cylinder. The reciprocating motion of the slider 6 enables the material removal rod to move back and forth along a direction perpendicular to the movement direction of the conveyor belt, thereby pushing the workpiece 19 on the conveyor belt alternately left and right to the two positioning assemblies 3 in turn to realize the material separation action.

[0027] More specifically, the material removal plate 5 includes a horizontal mounting plate 7 and a vertical push plate 8, one end of the horizontal mounting plate 7 is detachably connected to the upper end surface of the slider 6, the upper end of the vertical push plate 8 is connected to the other end of the horizontal mounting plate 7, and the lower end of the vertical push plate 8 extends vertically downward to below the upper end surface of the workpiece 19 on the conveyor belt assembly 2; that is, in this structure, there is an overlapping area between the lower end of the vertical push plate 8 and the workpiece 19, which can push the workpiece 19 to move horizontally; in addition, in this structure, when the vertical push plate 8 pushes the workpiece 19 located at the pushing station on the conveyor belt assembly 2 to the positioning assembly 3 on either side, the next workpiece 19 on the conveyor belt assembly 2 can continue to move forward to the pushing station to wait for the next pushing action of the vertical push plate.

[0028] When the vertical push plate 8 is in the process of returning from the right side to the left side, there is already a workpiece 19 at the pushing station on the conveyor belt, so when the vertical push plate 8 is reset to the left, the workpiece 19 on the pushing station is pushed to the positioning assembly 3 on the left side again. In addition, there is also a proximity switch in this structure as a signal detection. If the vertical push plate 8 needs to be reset in the opposite direction at the right position, if the proximity switch does not detect the workpiece 19 signal at this time, the drive assembly 4 will no longer operate; thereby ensuring that the vertical push plate 8 can push the corresponding workpiece 19 into the corresponding positioning assembly 3 each time it moves left and right, without any idle period, thereby ensuring the continuity and rapidity of pushing materials, and effectively improving the material distribution efficiency.

[0029] In this embodiment, the two positioning assemblies 3 have the same structure, and they both include a base 9 connected to the frame 1, and a support plate 10 parallel to the upper end surface of the conveyor belt assembly 2 is provided on the base 9, and a positioning portion and a positioning pressure plate 11 movable along the moving direction of the conveyor belt assembly 2 are provided on the support plate 10. When the material removal plate 5 pushes the workpiece 19 on the conveyor belt assembly 2 horizontally into the corresponding positioning portion, the positioning pressure plate 11 is used to press and limit the side wall of the workpiece 19 to position it at a right angle, thereby ensuring that the workpiece 19 enters the next process at the same angle position each time.

[0030] More specifically, in this embodiment, the positioning portion includes a first baffle 12 perpendicular to the moving direction of the conveyor belt assembly 2, and the first baffle 12 is connected to the second baffle 13 at one end away from the conveyor belt assembly 2, and the first baffle 12 and the second baffle 13 surround a right-angle positioning groove 14; when the workpiece 19 on the conveyor belt assembly 2 horizontally enters the right-angle positioning groove 14 until it abuts against the second baffle 13, the positioning pressure plate 11 is used to drive the workpiece 19 to continue to abut against the first baffle 12 in the moving direction of the conveyor belt assembly 2, so that the two right-angle sides of a right-angle position of the workpiece 19 are respectively corresponding to the two right-angle sides of the right-angle positioning groove 14, so as to achieve the right-angle positioning of the workpiece 19. In this structure, the positioning portion is arranged at one end of the support plate 10 corresponding to the material pushing station, and a driving cylinder 15 parallel to the moving direction of the conveyor belt assembly 2 is arranged at the other end of the support plate 10 away from the positioning portion, wherein one end of the positioning pressure plate 11 is connected to the piston rod of the driving cylinder 15. The driving cylinder 15 here can be one of a pneumatic cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder or an electric push cylinder.

[0031] On the other hand, Figure 3 As shown, this embodiment also provides a block automatic gluing machine, which includes a frame 1, on which the aforementioned double-station feeding mechanism is provided, and the frame 1 is also provided with a collection plate 16 located on both sides of the conveyor belt assembly 2, and two clamping assemblies 17, and the two clamping assemblies 17 are used to clamp the workpieces 19 on the two positioning assemblies 3, move them to the glue spraying station for glue spraying, and transfer and stack them on the corresponding collection plate 16. Specifically, a door-type bracket 18 is provided on the frame 1, and the two clamping assemblies 17 are connected to the crossbeam of the door-type bracket 18. The glue spraying station here is mainly used to spray glue on the lower end surface of the workpiece 19 on the clamping assembly 17, that is, a corresponding glue spraying assembly is also provided on the frame 1. For details, the glue spraying assembly in patent CN219442136U can be referred to. The functions they are to achieve are the same, and no further description will be given here.

[0032] Preferably, the clamping assembly 17 includes a supporting portion and a multi-degree-of-freedom sliding assembly capable of moving up and down and left and right, wherein the multi-degree-of-freedom sliding assembly is connected to the crossbeam of the door-type bracket 18, and the clamping portion can be a clamping claw structure formed by two clamping plates, or can directly adopt a suction cup type for adsorption clamping. In addition, in this structure, in order to better stack the workpieces 19 after gluing on the collecting plate 16, the collecting plate 16 can slide along the movement direction of the conveyor belt assembly 2, so that more workpieces 19 can be stacked on the collecting plate 16. Of course, the clamping assembly 17 can also be a multi-degree-of-freedom manipulator, and a clamping portion for clamping corresponding specifications is detachably connected to the end of the manipulator. Specifically, the clamping portion can be customized and replaced according to the specifications and shapes of the magnet to better increase the versatility of the gluing machine.

[0033] Although the utility model is disclosed as above, the protection scope of the utility model is not limited thereto. Those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the utility model, and these changes and modifications will fall within the protection scope of the utility model.
