[0002] There are a number of barrel assemblies to be loaded into packaging boxes. The barrel assemblies are composed of barrels of different sizes stacked together. They need to be grabbed as a whole and put into the packaging box together.

[0003] The traditional feeding method is manual operation. The staff will pick up the stacked barrel components and put them into the packaging box on one side, and then arrange the barrels in the packaging box. However, this manual feeding method has a very low feeding efficiency, and the staff may not be able to put them into the box due to tilting. It is also easy to drop the barrel during the feeding process, damaging the product. Therefore, a feeding mechanism is designed to solve the above problems.
