[0026] The present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the drawings:

[0027] The following description is used to disclose the present utility model so that those skilled in the art can implement the present utility model. The preferred embodiments described below are only examples, and other obvious variations can be conceived by those skilled in the art. The basic principles defined in the following description of the present utility model can be used in other implementation schemes, variant schemes, improvement schemes, equivalent schemes, and other technical schemes that do not deviate from the spirit and scope of the present utility model.

[0028] Those skilled in the art should understand that in the disclosure of the present utility model, the terms "longitudinal", "lateral", "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "front", "rear", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc. indicate the orientation or position based on the orientation or position relationship shown in the drawings. It is only for the convenience of simplifying the description of the present utility model, rather than indicating or implying that the device or component referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, the above terms should not be construed as limitations on the present utility model.

[0029] It can be understood that the term "one" should be understood as "at least one" or "one or more". That is, in one embodiment, the number of an element can be one, while in other embodiments, the number of the element can be multiple. The term "one" should not be construed as a limitation on the quantity.

[0030] Such as Figures 1 to 5As shown in the figure, a plastic part feeding mechanism of a switch button automatic processing device includes a base 1. A vibrating bowl 2 for storing plastic parts is arranged on the base 1. A conveying guide rail 3 is arranged at the outlet of the vibrating bowl 2. A plastic part transfer mechanism is arranged at the outlet of the conveying guide rail 3. The plastic part transfer mechanism includes a Y-direction transfer assembly and an X-direction transfer assembly arranged vertically. The Y-direction transfer assembly includes a Y-direction driving device 41. A Y-direction transfer plate 42 is connected to the Y-direction driving device 41. A station groove 42a matching the plastic part is arranged on the Y-direction transfer plate 42. The X-direction transfer assembly includes an X-direction driving device 51. An X-direction transfer plate 52 is connected to the X-direction driving device 51. The X-direction transfer plate 52 is arranged parallel to the conveying guide rail 3.

[0031] The above-mentioned Y-direction driving device 41 and X-direction driving device 51 are preferably air cylinders.

[0032] A guiding seat 6 is fixed on the base 1. A Y-direction guiding groove 61 and an X-direction guiding groove 62 perpendicular to each other are arranged on the guiding seat 6.

[0033] The cross-sectional shape of the X-direction guiding groove 62 matches the plastic part.

[0034] A cover plate 7 is fixed on the upper surface of the guiding seat 6.

[0035] Both the Y-direction transfer plate 42 and the X-direction transfer plate 52 are slender parts. The corresponding Y-direction guiding groove 61 and X-direction guiding groove 62 can ensure that the Y-direction transfer plate 42 and the X-direction transfer plate 52 run along the set track, while the cover plate 7 can prevent the Y-direction transfer plate 42 and the X-direction transfer plate 52 from tilting upwards. The cross-sectional shape of the X-direction guiding groove 62 matches the plastic part, and the cross-sectional shape of the station groove 42a also matches the plastic part. When the station groove 42a is aligned with the X-direction guiding groove 62, a conveying channel can be formed; the cross-sectional shape matches the plastic part, which can play a limiting role on the plastic part, making the plastic part keep a vertical state during the conveying process and preparing for the subsequent pressing action of the metal part and the plastic part.

[0036] An induction probe 8 is arranged on the cover plate 7 at the position corresponding to the outlet of the conveying guide rail 3. The induction probe 8 is used to detect whether there is a plastic part passing through. If there is no plastic part, stop the operation of the equipment and remind the operator to add plastic parts.

[0037] The Y-direction driving device 41 is rotationally connected to the Y-direction transfer plate 42.

[0038] The X-direction driving device 51 is rotationally connected to the X-direction transfer plate 52.

[0039] During the installation process, it is necessary to ensure that the X-direction transfer plate 52 is parallel to the conveying guide rail 3, and the Y-direction transfer plate 42 is perpendicular to the X-direction transfer plate 52. Here, the driving device and the transfer plate are rotationally connected, which can reduce the installation difficulty of the driving device. Even if there is a certain angle between the axis of the driving device and the axis of the transfer plate, the equipment can still operate normally.

[0040] The bottom of the described base 1 is provided with universal wheels 11.

[0041] The bottom of the described base 1 is also provided with telescopic support feet 12.

[0042] The setting of the universal wheels 11 facilitates the overall movement of the equipment; while the setting of the support feet 12 facilitates the stable placement after moving into position. When it is necessary to move, the support feet 12 are retracted upward, and the equipment is moved to the required position by using the universal wheels 11, and then the support feet 12 are put down to form a support.

[0043] Working principle:

[0044] Pour the plastic parts into the vibrating bowl 2, start the equipment, and the plastic parts in the vibrating bowl 2 are conveyed by the conveying guide rail 3 to the stamping device. When the plastic parts are conveyed to the outlet of the conveying guide rail 3, they cannot continue to be conveyed due to the blockage of the Y-direction transfer plate 42. The Y-direction transfer plate 42 moves driven by the Y-direction driving device 41 until the working slot 42a on the Y-direction transfer plate 42 is aligned with the outlet of the conveying guide rail 3. Then, the blockage of the plastic parts on the conveying guide rail 3 is released and they will be sent into the working slot 42a, so that the individual conveying of the plastic parts can be realized.

[0045] After the plastic parts enter the working slot 42a, the Y-direction transfer plate 42 is driven by the Y-direction driving device 41 to move, so as to realize the Y-direction movement of the plastic parts, transfer the plastic parts from the outlet of the conveying guide rail 3 to the X-direction guiding slot 62, and make the working slot 42a align with the X-direction guiding slot 62; then the X-direction transfer plate 52 is driven by the X-direction driving device 51 to move, and the plastic parts in the working slot 42a are pushed into the stamping device along the X-direction guiding slot 62 by the end of the X-direction transfer plate 52, thus completing the automatic loading action of one plastic part. After the action is completed, the X-direction transfer plate 52 is reset driven by the X-direction driving device 51, and the Y-direction transfer plate 42 is driven by the Y-direction driving device 41 to move, so that the working slot 42a is aligned with the outlet of the conveying guide rail 3 again to transfer and transport the next plastic part. In this way, the automatic loading of the plastic parts is realized by cycling.

[0046] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, and it does not limit the implementation manners and protection scope of the present utility model. For those skilled in the art, it should be able to realize that all equivalent replacements and obvious changes made by using the description and illustration content of the present utility model should be included in the protection scope of the present utility model.
