[0021] As shown in the accompanying drawings, the utility model includes a horizontal conveyor 3, an arrangement conveyor 20 is arranged below the discharge end of the horizontal conveyor 3, an adsorption rack 21 is arranged above the discharge end of the horizontal conveyor 3, and a pair of lifting suction cup mechanisms 22 for adsorbing and transferring the casing to the arrangement conveyor 20 are arranged in a mirror-image distribution on the adsorption rack 21.

[0022] The lifting suction cup mechanism 22 includes a transverse slide 23, a vertical slide 24 and a steering motor 25. The transverse slide 23 is installed on the adsorption frame 21, the vertical slide 24 is installed on the slider of the transverse slide 23, the steering motor 25 is installed on the slider of the vertical slide 24, and a vacuum suction cup 26 for adsorbing the casing is provided at the end of the power output shaft of the steering motor 25.

[0023] The horizontal slide 23 is an electric slide, and the vertical slide 24 is a pneumatic slide.

[0024] The steering motor 25 is a stepping motor.

[0025] A set of height limiting rods 27 is disposed on the frame of the arranging conveyor 20 , and an arranging conveying area is formed between the height limiting rods 27 and the conveying top surface of the arranging conveyor 20 .

[0026] The height limiting rod 27 is mounted on the frame of the arrangement conveyor 20 via a pair of inverted L-shaped brackets.

[0027] The inverted L-shaped bracket is composed of a vertical fixing plate 28 and a transverse fixing plate 29. The vertical fixing plate 28 is detachably mounted on the frame of the arrangement conveyor 20 by a pair of bolts. An oblong nail hole is opened on the vertical fixing plate 28. A pair of bolts pass through the oblong nail hole and are screwed into the transverse fixing plate 29 to fix the transverse fixing plate 29 to the vertical fixing plate 28. A group of rod holes are opened at the lower part of the transverse fixing plate 29, and a pair of threaded locking holes are opened at the top of the transverse fixing plate 29. The height limit rod 27 is located in the corresponding rod hole. A pair of screws are screwed into the corresponding threaded locking holes to tighten and fix the height limit rod 27.

[0028] The alignment conveyor 20 is a belt conveyor.

[0029] Embodiment 1: The casing delivered by the horizontal conveyor 3 is preliminarily arranged, and the casing of the lighter is conveyed to the bottom of the lifting suction cup mechanism 22 by the horizontal conveyor 3. The horizontal slide 23 drives the vertical slide 24 to move above the casing, and the vertical slide 24 drives the steering motor 25 to descend, and the casing is sucked by the vacuum suction cup 26, and then the vertical slide 24 is lifted and reset, and the steering motor 25 drives the casing to rotate a specified angle so that the casing is parallel to the horizontal conveyor 3. The horizontal slide 23 drives the casing to move above the feeding end of the arrangement conveyor 20, and the vertical slide 24 drives the casing to descend, and the vacuum suction cup 26 contacts and adsorbs, so that the casing falls on the arrangement conveyor 20. A pair of lifting suction cup mechanisms 22 can grab the casing at the same time and place a pair of casings on the arrangement conveyor 20. The casing entering the arrangement conveyor 20 is limited in conveying height by the height limit rod 27, so that the casing is arranged in sequence and sent to the upper brace station by the arrangement conveyor 20.

[0030] When the delivered casings are arranged in a disorderly manner, the existing visual inspection system is used in the transfer device, which can make the lifting suction cup mechanism 22 more accurate in grabbing the casings. The visual inspection system is composed of an industrial control computer 200, a pair of industrial cameras 201, an image acquisition card and an execution control mechanism. The industrial camera 201 takes pictures of the casings on the conveying surface of the horizontal conveyor 3, and the pictures are stored in the image acquisition card and then sent to the industrial control computer 200. Only the display screen of the industrial control computer 200 is drawn in the attached figure. The industrial control computer 200 identifies the state of the casing according to the photographed picture, and then controls the grabbing position of the lifting suction cup mechanism 22 through the execution control mechanism. After grabbing the casing, the rotation angle of the steering motor 25 is controlled according to the casing offset angle to make the casing parallel to the horizontal conveyor 3, and then the casing is placed on the arrangement conveyor 20 for transportation.
