DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0023] The present invention is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0024] The following is a comprehensive description of embodiments of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that the present invention can be implemented in different forms and is not limited to the embodiments illustrated herein. These embodiments are provided to make the present disclosure thorough and complete and to fully convey the scope of the present invention to those skilled in the art.

[0025] The utility model provides a magnet feeding device, such as Figure 1-4 As shown, it includes a magnet material clamp 1 and a push plate 2, and preferably the magnet material clamp 1 and the push plate 2 are both installed on a frame 28;

[0026] A feeding channel 3 is formed in the magnet material clamp 1. The feeding channel 3 extends longitudinally for a stack of magnet workpieces 4 stacked longitudinally to be placed therein. The shape of the magnet workpieces 4 is not limited. Specifically, in the present embodiment, they are thin sheets. The cross-sectional shape of the feeding channel 3 is consistent with the cross-sectional shape of the magnet workpiece 4. The bottom end of the feeding channel 3 is opened to form a discharge port 5. The magnet workpieces 4 in the feeding channel 3 fall to the discharge port 5 by gravity, so that the magnet material clamp 1 can be discharged downward from the discharge port 5 in sequence. In order to facilitate the replenishment of the magnet workpieces 4 into the feeding channel 3, the feeding channel 5 is opened at the top end of the magnet material clamp 1 to form a discharge port 26, and the magnet workpiece 4 can be placed into the feeding channel 5 from the discharge port 26.

[0027] The push plate 2 is kept shielded below the discharge port 5, and a receiving groove 6 is provided on the top surface of the push plate 2. A receiving groove 6 can be inserted downwardly into a magnet workpiece 4, that is, the depth of the receiving groove 6 is consistent with the thickness of a magnet workpiece 4, and the shape of the receiving groove 6 matches the outer contour of the magnet workpiece 4. The push plate 2 is arranged to slide horizontally. Preferably, in this embodiment, the push plate 2 is connected to a push cylinder 27, and the push cylinder 27 drives the push plate 2 to slide, so that the receiving groove 6 slides into the discharge port 5, and a magnet workpiece 4 discharged from the discharge port 5 falls into , or slides out and is exposed in the magnet material clamp 1, and pushes the fallen magnet workpiece 4 out from under the magnet material clamp 1, and because the push plate 2 is blocked under the discharge port 5, therefore, when the accommodating groove 6 slides out and is exposed in the magnet material clamp 1, because the push plate 2 is kept blocked under the discharge port 5, the rest of the push plate 2 blocks the discharge port 5, and the magnet workpiece 4 in the feeding channel 3 cannot be discharged downward from the discharge port 5 until the push plate 2 slides again to align the accommodating groove 6 with the discharge port 5, and the above-mentioned actions are repeated to realize automatic and orderly discharge of the magnets.

[0028] In order to adapt to the magnet workpieces 4 of different thicknesses, preferably, the push plate 2 includes a push plate body 7 and a pad 8, the push plate body 7 is horizontally slidably arranged, the pad 8 is detachably installed and fixed on the top surface of the push plate body 7, and the accommodating groove 6 is opened on the top surface of the pad 8, so that when loading the magnet workpieces 4 of different thicknesses, it is only necessary to replace the pad 8 with the accommodating groove 6 of the corresponding thickness; in order to be able to adapt to the magnet workpieces 4 of different cross-sectional shapes, it is more preferred that the magnet material clamp 1 is detachably installed on the frame 28, so that when loading the magnet workpieces 4 of different cross-sectional shapes, it is only necessary to replace the corresponding pad 8 and magnet material clamp 1.

[0029] In order to prevent the magnetic workpiece 4 from not completely falling into the bottom of the receiving groove 6 when falling into the receiving groove, causing the push plate 2 to be stuck, and to prevent the magnetic poles of the magnetic workpiece 4 from being placed in the wrong direction, preferably, a magnetic suction component 9 is arranged under the pushing plate 2, and the magnetic suction component 9 slides horizontally with the pushing plate 2. The magnetic suction component 9 includes a magnetic suction member 10 and a magnetic suction lifting drive device 11. The magnetic suction lifting drive device 11 is connected and drives the magnetic suction member 10 to rise and fall at a position opposite to the receiving groove 6 under the pushing plate 2. The magnetic suction member 10 can magnetically attract the magnetic workpiece 4 that falls into the receiving groove 6, so as to enhance the magnetic attraction after the magnetic suction member 10 rises, ensuring that the magnetic workpiece 4 falls completely into the receiving groove 6, and weaken and release the magnetic attraction after it falls, so as to facilitate the removal of the magnetic workpiece 10 from the receiving groove 6.

[0030] In order to facilitate the removal of the magnetic workpiece 10 from the receiving groove 6 and transfer the magnetic workpiece 10 to the next workstation, specifically in the present embodiment, the magnet loading device also includes a magnet suction hand 12 and a magnet carrier plate 13. The magnet suction hand 12 can suck the magnetic workpiece 4 pushed out of the magnet material clamp 1 from the receiving groove 6 to the magnet carrier plate 13. The top surface of the magnet carrier plate 13 is provided with a magnet placement groove 25 for the magnet workpiece 4 to be embedded. The magnet carrier plate 13 can carry the magnetic workpiece 10 to the next workstation.

[0031] In order to prevent the magnetic suction hand 12 from colliding with the magnetic workpiece 4 when it descends to absorb the magnetic workpiece 4 in the accommodating groove 6, preferably, the magnetic suction hand 12 includes a suction hand horizontal drive 14, a suction hand lifting drive 15, a suction hand mounting frame 16, a suction hand body and an elastic member 18. The suction hand horizontal drive 14 is used to drive the suction hand mounting frame 16 to move horizontally to slide above the accommodating groove 6 or above the magnet carrier plate 13. The suction hand lifting drive 15 is used to drive the suction hand mounting frame 16 to move up and down. The suction hand body is slidably installed on the suction hand mounting frame 16, and the bottom end protrudes from the suction hand mounting frame 16 for sucking and placing the magnetic workpiece 4. The elastic member 18 elastically drives the suction hand body to slide down on the suction hand mounting frame 16, and then the elastic member 18 can buffer the collision generated when the suction hand body contacts the magnetic workpiece 4.

[0032] Specifically in this embodiment, the suction hand body includes a suction hand bracket 19, a fixed block 20, a lifting block 21 and a suction hand driving mechanism 22. The suction hand bracket 19 is slidably installed on the suction hand mounting frame 16, the fixed block 20 is fixed to the bottom edge of the side wall of the suction hand bracket 19, and the lifting block 21 is located above the fixed block 20. A through hole 23 is longitudinally penetrated on the fixed block 20, and the cross-sectional size of the through hole 23 cannot be entered by the magnetic workpiece 4. A latch 24 is longitudinally extended at the bottom end of the lifting block 21, and the latch 24 is slidably inserted into the through hole 23. The fixed block 20 is made of a material that cannot be magnetically attracted to the magnetic workpiece 4, and the latch 24 is made of a material that can be magnetically attracted to the magnetic workpiece 4. The suction hand driving mechanism 22 drives the lifting block 21 to slide up and down, so that the latch 24 slides up and down in the through hole 23, so that after sliding down, it is used to magnetically attract the magnetic workpiece 4 below, so that the magnetic workpiece 4 is adsorbed on the bottom surface of the fixed block 20, and after sliding up, it is used to loosen the magnetically attracted magnetic workpiece 4, so that the magnetic workpiece 4 is detached from the bottom surface of the fixed block 20.

[0033] To improve efficiency, preferably, a plurality of feeding channels 3 are provided in the magnet material clamp 1, and the arrangement positions of the feeding channels 3 are not limited, for example, they can be arranged in a straight line array or in other shapes, and the bottom end of each feeding channel 3 is opened to form a discharge port 5, and a receiving groove 6 is provided on the top surface of the push plate 2 corresponding to each discharge port 5, and the push plate 2 slides horizontally so that each receiving groove 6 is simultaneously aligned with the corresponding discharge port 5, or simultaneously slides out and exposed to the magnet material clamp 1, and the magnet suction hand 12 and the magnet carrier plate 13 can also be designed to be able to absorb and place a corresponding number of magnet workpieces 4.
