The frames are composed of two long frames and two short frames connected by snap-fitting, splicing, or gluing. Before framing, the frames need to be placed in the silo at the loading end of the glue machine. However, the current conveying and distribution silo adopts a clamping loading method (similar to a robot), which has a more complicated structure. The silo frame at the loading end of the glue machine is transported from top to bottom to drop the frame to the docking position at one time, which will cause material jamming and the frame cannot fall to the docking position, thus affecting production efficiency.

[0034] The material is first placed at the upstream end of the conveying unit and transported to the downstream end through the conveying unit. During this process, the material is shaped and divided in sequence so that the unloading unit can pick them up one by one and place them at the frame docking station.

[0036] The material conveying line is provided with the X-axis conveying assembly 1;
[0037] The X-axis conveying assembly 1 is provided with the shaping assembly 4 and the material dividing assembly 18 in sequence.
[0038] In order to shape and divide the materials in sequence, the materials in this embodiment are frames.
[0039] The upstream end of the material conveying line is provided with a first sensor 2 for detecting incoming materials, so as to detect whether there is material at the upstream end of the material conveying line, and if there is material, it is prompted that the material conveying line can be transported away, and if there is no material, it is prompted that material can be added upward.
[0040] The first sensor 2 is located on one side of the X-axis conveying assembly 1. The arrangement is more convenient.
[0041] The downstream end of the material conveying line is provided with a second sensor 3 for detecting whether the material is full, and the second sensor 3 is located downstream of the material dividing assembly 18. In order to detect whether there is material at the downstream end of the material conveying line, if there is material, the unloading unit is prompted to take and place the material and leave, and if there is no material, the material conveying line is prompted to continue to transport.
[0042] The second sensor 3 is located on one side of the X-axis conveying assembly 1. The arrangement is more convenient.

[0044] The shaping assembly 4 includes a baffle 8 , which is fixed to the output end of the first cylinder 7 , and the baffles 8 on both sides are pushed inward by the first cylinder 7 .
[0045] The baffle 8 pushed inwards can push both ends of the material so that the material can be pushed neatly from the ends.
[0046] Combination Figure 3 As shown, the material dividing component 18 includes a material blocking member 5 and a material dividing member 6, the material blocking member 5 is fixed to the output end of the second cylinder 9, and the second cylinder 9 drives the material blocking member 5 in and out of the material conveying line; the material dividing member 6 is fixed to the output end of the third cylinder 10, and the third cylinder 10 drives the material dividing member 6 in and out of the material conveying line from the side, and a preparatory gap for a single group of materials is left between the material blocking member 5 and the material dividing member 6.
