[0031] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 The embodiment of the present application provides an incoming material buffering and picking mechanism, comprising a supporting portion 1 , a mounting portion 2 , and at least two grabbing portions 3 .

[0032] Among them, the two support parts 1 are spaced apart in the first direction X. The mounting part 2 is fixedly arranged above the support part 1, and the mounting part 2 is provided with a first slide rail 21 extending along the first direction X. The mounting part 2 is respectively installed with a first rotating shaft 22 and a second rotating shaft 23 at both ends of the first direction X. The first rotating shaft 22 is connected with a first driving member 25, and the first driving member 25 is used to drive the first rotating shaft 22 to rotate forward or reverse. The axes of the first rotating shaft 22 and the second rotating shaft 23 extend along the vertical direction Z, and the first rotating shaft 22 and the second rotating shaft 23 are connected by a synchronous belt 24. At least two grasping parts 3 are spaced apart in the first direction X. The grasping part 3 is slidably connected to the first slide rail 21 through the first slider 4, and the grasping part 3 is fixedly connected to the synchronous belt 24 through the connecting block 5, and the first slider 4 and the connecting block 5 are fixedly connected. The grabbing portion 3 includes a first mounting plate 31, a second mounting plate 32, a third mounting plate 33, a second slide rail 34 extending in the vertical direction Z, and a plurality of grabbing members 35. The first mounting plate 31 is fixedly connected to a side of the connecting block 5 away from the first slider 4. The second slide rail 34 is located on a side of the first mounting plate 31 away from the connecting block 5. The second mounting plate 32 is slidably connected to the second slide rail 34 via a second slider 6. The second slider 6 is connected to a second driving member 7. The second driving member 7 is used to drive the second slider 6 to drive the second mounting plate 32 to move in the vertical direction Z. The bottom end of the second mounting plate 32 is fixedly connected to the third mounting plate 33. The grabbing member 35 is arranged on the bottom surface of the third mounting plate 33.

[0033] The incoming material caching and fetching mechanism provided in this embodiment can stably set up the entire mechanism on the production line by setting the support part 1, so that the production line is located between the two support parts 1; by setting the mounting part 2 and the grabbing part 3, the grabbing part 3 can move along the first direction X through the synchronous belt 24, and can move along the vertical direction Z through the second slide rail 34, so that the workpiece on the production line can be grabbed and placed in the material box for temporary storage. When there are too many incoming materials on the production line, the excess workpieces can be moved to the material box for temporary storage. When there are fewer incoming materials on the production line, the workpieces temporarily stored in the material box can be moved back to the production line for subsequent processes. Therefore, the incoming material caching and fetching mechanism can conveniently move incoming materials, effectively utilize working time, improve work efficiency, and avoid wasting working time.

[0034] In addition, at least two gripping parts 3 are provided, so that the incoming materials on two production lines can be controlled at the same time to further improve the work efficiency.

[0035] In this embodiment, there are two first slide rails 21, which are arranged on the side of the mounting portion 2 and are spaced apart in the vertical direction Z. There are also two corresponding first sliders 4, which can ensure that the movement of the grabbing portion 3 along the first direction X is more stable and smooth.

[0036] like Figure 1As shown, the first rotating shaft 22 and the second rotating shaft 23 are located on the same surface of the mounting portion 2 as the first slide rail 21, and the synchronous belt 24 is located between the two first slide rails 21. The volume of the mechanism can be reduced through a reasonable layout. Preferably, the first slide rail 21 is located between the first rotating shaft 22 and the second rotating shaft 23 to avoid material waste.

[0037] like Figure 2 As shown, the connecting block 5 is fixedly connected to a portion of the synchronous belt 24 near the mounting portion 2, and the connecting block 5 is located between the first slider 4 and the synchronous belt 24, which can effectively utilize the space between the synchronous belt 24 and the first slide rail 21 and ensure the effective connection between the grabbing portion 3 and the mounting portion 2.

[0038] Preferably, the third mounting plate 33 extends along the second direction Y, and the first direction X and the second direction Y are perpendicular and parallel to the horizontal plane. A plurality of gripping members 35 are arranged at intervals in the second direction Y, so that more workpieces can be gripped. On the bottom surface of the third mounting plate 33, two rows of gripping members 35 are arranged at intervals and aligned in the first direction X, so that two gripping members 35 can be used to grip one workpiece, so that the gripping is more stable.

[0039] Specifically, a suction nozzle 36 is provided on the bottom surface of the gripping member 35, and the suction nozzle 36 sucks the workpiece by negative pressure. The bottom surfaces of the plurality of gripping members 35 are arranged flush.

[0040] In this embodiment, the support part 1 includes a horizontally arranged base 11, a vertically arranged support column 12, and a horizontally arranged mounting seat 13. The support column 12 is located between the base 11 and the mounting seat 13. Reinforcement ribs 14 are provided between the support column 12 and the base 11, and between the support column 12 and the mounting seat 13 to make the structure more stable. The mounting part 2 is mounted on the mounting seat 13 at both ends along the first direction X. In the vertical direction Z, the length of the second slide rail 34 is greater than the length of the mounting part 2 to ensure that the third mounting plate 33 does not interfere with the mounting part 2.
