At the front and rear of the top of the lower aluminum profile 6, there is a lower propulsion guide rail 10 respectively, a first cylinder fixing block 11 is provided in the middle of the top, and a suction cup group 13 for sucking the plate 12 is provided at the bottom. A cylinder 14 is provided between the first cylinder fixing block 11 and the second cylinder fixing block 9. The lower slider fixing part 8 is slidably arranged on the corresponding lower propulsion guide rail 10. When the cylinder 14 works, the lower aluminum profile 6 can perform Y-direction telescopic operation. The more the single-module translation components 4 are provided, the more plates 12 that can be sucked and trimmed simultaneously. The suction cup group 13 includes a first suction cup 23 with adjustable angle provided at the front of the bottom of the lower aluminum profile 6 and second suction cups 24 provided in the middle and at the rear of the bottom of the lower aluminum profile 6. The first suction cup 23 includes a first connecting plate 25 hinged to the front of the bottom of the lower aluminum profile 6 and a suction cup 26 provided at the front of the connecting plate. On both sides of the rear of the first connecting plate 25, there is a spring 28 connected to a U-shaped second connecting plate 27 at the front of the bottom of the lower aluminum profile 6 for buffering during material suction.
[0020] The material-gripping frame 1 includes two parallel first material-gripping frame aluminum profiles 15 with X-direction translation adjustment guide rails 3 and a second material-gripping frame aluminum profile 16 provided between the two first material-gripping frame aluminum profiles 15. The single-module translation component 4 translates in the X-direction along the first material-gripping frame aluminum profile 15.
[0021] The upper slider fixing member 7 includes a first fixing block 17 fixed to the top of the upper aluminum profile 5. An upper adjusting slider 18 and an L-shaped fixing plate 20 with an upper locking screw 19 are provided on the top of the first fixing block 17.

The bottom of the L-shaped fixing plate 20 is fixed to the first fixing block 17, and the upper locking screw 19 at the upper part is fixed inside the corresponding X-direction translation adjusting guide rail 3. The two upper slider fixing members 7 are symmetrically arranged, and the distance between the single-module translation components 4 is adjusted by manually adjusting the position of the upper locking screw 19 inside the X-direction translation adjusting guide rail 3 so as to adapt to sheet materials of different sizes.
[0022] The lower slider fixing member 8 includes a second fixing block 21 fixed to the bottom of the upper aluminum profile 5.

[0025] During work, the robot is connected to the robot connecting seat 2 and drives the material-gripping frame 1 to suck and move the sheet material from the material area to be processed to the position to be sheared by the shearing machine through the suction cup group 13. At this time, there is still a certain distance between the sheet material to be processed and the cutting tool of the shearing machine. Then, the air cylinder 14 is automatically controlled to act, and the lower aluminum profile 6 moves forward in the Y direction, driving the sheet material to move forward. At this time, the sheet material to be processed is completely within the range of the shearing machine. Then, the shearing machine completes the shearing and processes the sheet material. After the sheet material is sheared, the lower aluminum profile 6 moves backward in the Y direction, driving the sheet material to reset. The robot runs again to transport the sheet material to the suction cup group 13 in the processing completed area for discharging, and a processing cycle can be completed.
[0026] The beneficial effects of the present utility model adopting the above structure are as follows: An automatic device for simultaneously trimming multiple sheets of materials provided by the present utility model can be adjusted in the X direction along the X-direction translation adjusting guide rail by the single-module translation component in the device, and the lower aluminum profile can be adjusted in the Y direction by the air cylinder, and the sheet material is sucked by the suction cup to adapt to sheet materials of different sizes.
