[0026] The utility model realizes the coordinated action of the vibrating material plate 2, the guide rail 3, the feeding mechanism 4 and the conveying mechanism. The vibrating material plate 2 conveys the piston tubes 10 to the feeding mechanism 4 one by one and in an orderly manner through the guide rail 3. The conveying driving component drives the clamping component 7 to clamp the piston tube 10 on the feeding mechanism 4 and convey it to the conveying platform 8 to wait for subsequent equipment operation, so as to realize automatic feeding of the piston tube 10, which is more effective in ensuring the accuracy and efficiency of feeding than manual operation.

[0027] The vibrating material plate 2 and the guide rail 3 are arranged on the frame 1. Through the cooperation of the vibrating material plate 2 and the guide rail 3, the piston tube 10 can be stably and orderly driven into the feeding mechanism 4, avoiding possible misoperation caused by manual picking. Among them, the vibrating material plate 2 and the guide rail 3 adopt the existing technology, which will not be described in detail here.

[0028] As an optional implementation, Figure 1 , 2 As shown, the discharge end of the guide rail 3 is provided with a discharge channel 31. The feeding mechanism 4 includes a feeding base 48, a feeding plate 41, a feeding cylinder 42 and a feeding drive unit.

The movable end of the feeding cylinder 42 is connected to a feeding push plate 43. The feeding cylinder 42 drives the feeding push plate 43 to move in the discharge channel 31, and pushes the piston tube 10 from the discharge channel 31 to the feeding trough 411.

[0029] Furthermore, the loading plate 41 is located between the guide rail 3 and the transport mechanism, and the loading trough 411 is adapted to the piston tube 10. The discharge channel 31 is arranged through the discharge end of the guide rail 3, and the discharge channel 31 is adapted to the piston tube 10 to ensure that only one piston tube 10 is pushed into the loading trough 411 by the loading push plate 43 at a time.

[0030] The loading cylinder 42 drives the loading push plate 43 to move in the discharge channel 31 toward the loading plate 41 , pushing the piston tube 10 from the discharge channel 31 into the loading trough 411 .

The lead screw and the nut slider are transmission-coordinated, and the nut slider is connected to the feeding plate 41 through a first feeding connector 47.

[0033] The motor 46 drives the lead screw to rotate, causing the nut slider to move along its axial direction, thereby driving the loading plate 41 to reciprocate.

[0034] As the nut slider moves, the loading plate 41 is driven to move, so that each loading groove 411 moves to the discharge channel 31 in turn to receive the piston tube 10, until all the loading grooves 411 of the loading plate 41 receive the piston tube 10, and then the loading plate 41 is driven to move to the bottom of the clamping component 7 and wait for the clamping operation.

[0035] As an optional implementation, Figure 2 As shown, the feeding mechanism 4 also includes a guide slot 45 , the direction of the guide slot 45 is parallel to the direction of the discharge channel 31 , the movable end of the feeding cylinder 42 is connected to the feeding push plate 43 through the second feeding connecting piece 44 , and the second feeding connecting piece 44 is slidably matched with the guide slot 45 .

[0036] Furthermore, the guide slot 45 is disposed on the feeding base 48 , and the fixed end of the feeding cylinder 42 is disposed on the guide slot 45 .

[0038] As an optional implementation, Figure 1 , 3 As shown in , 4, the transport driving component includes a lifting part 5 and a flipping part, the lifting part 5 includes a lifting base 51, and a lifting cylinder 52 and a guide assembly arranged on the lifting base 51, the flipping part includes a flipping cylinder 6, the lifting cylinder 52 drives the flipping cylinder 6 to move along the guide assembly, the flipping cylinder 6 is connected to the clamping part 7 through the flipping member 61, and drives the clamping part 7 to switch between the first position and the second position.

[0039] Furthermore, the fixed end of the lifting cylinder 52 is connected to the lifting base 51, and the movable end of the lifting cylinder 52 is connected to the flip cylinder 6 through a guide assembly.

[0040] The lifting cylinder 52 drives the flip cylinder 6 to drive the clamping component 7 and the conveying platform 8 to perform lifting and lowering movements along the guide assembly, so that the clamping component 7 and the conveying platform 8 move to a preset height.

[0041] The turning cylinder 6 drives the clamping component 7 to turn over through the turning member 61. Figure 3 As shown, the clamping member 7 is turned over to the first position to accurately clamp the piston tube 10 on the loading plate 41.

[0044] The guide slide block 54 and the guide rail 53 are slidably matched, so that the turning cylinder 6 drives the clamping component 7 to move up and down in the vertical direction.

[0045] The guide slider 54 is connected to the flip cylinder 6 through the lifting connecting frame 55. When the lifting cylinder 52 drives the flip cylinder 6 to drive the clamping component 7 to move up and down, the guide slider 54 slides along the guide rail 53, thereby ensuring that the flip cylinder 6 drives the clamping component 7 to move up and down stably in the vertical direction.
