For the convenience of description, the directions mentioned below are defined as follows: the up, down, left, right, front and back directions mentioned below are Figure 1 The up-down, left-right, front-back directions of the projection relationship are consistent. A teaching-style sorting and conveying mechanism of the utility model comprises a bracket 19, a material guide assembly is arranged at the bottom of the bracket 19, a plurality of material pushing assemblies are arranged in the bracket 19, a vertical bracket 25 is arranged on one side of the bracket 19, a conveyor 24 is arranged on one side of the vertical bracket 25, a controller 22 is arranged on the top of the vertical bracket 25, a visual sensor 45 is arranged on the lower side of the controller 22, the visual sensor 45 is used to identify the color of the object on the conveyor 24, a pushing assembly for pushing the object on the conveyor 24 is arranged on one side of the vertical bracket 25, a material guide frame 21 is also arranged on the inner side of the conveyor 24, a chute 36 is arranged in the material guide frame 21, a drop hole 35 is arranged in the chute 36, and a delivery assembly for facilitating the downward delivery of the object is also arranged on one side of the material guide frame 21.

[0021] Advantageously, the material guiding assembly includes a placement platform 15 , a plurality of middle side rails 13 are arranged around the placement platform 15 , and a lower side rail 11 is arranged on one side of the middle side rail 13 .

[0022] Advantageously, flanges are provided on both sides of the top of the lower rail 11 and the middle rail 13 for guiding objects.

[0023] Advantageously, the pushing assembly includes a first cylinder 16 disposed on one side of a bracket 19, a first push plate 18 is disposed on one side of a push rod of the first cylinder 16, a plurality of guide rods 17 are disposed on one side of the first push plate 18, the guide rods 17 slide through the bracket 19, and after the first cylinder 16 pushes the first push plate 18 to move, the object on the placement platform 15 is guided downward along the middle side track 13.

[0024] Advantageously, the pushing assembly includes a mounting plate 43 disposed on one side of the vertical bracket 25, a second cylinder 23 is disposed on one side of the mounting plate 43, a second push plate 42 is disposed on one side of the push rod of the second cylinder 23, and the second push plate 42 is used to push objects on the conveyor 24 toward the guide rack 21.

[0025] Advantageously, an infrared sensor 44 is also provided on the mounting plate 43. The infrared sensor 44 feeds back information to the controller 22 after recognizing that an object is approaching. On the one hand, the controller 22 recognizes the color of the object through the visual sensor 45. On the other hand, the controller 22 controls the conveyor 24 to stop working. Then, the controller 22 controls the second cylinder 23 to work and uses the second push plate 42 to push the object into the slide 36.

[0026] Beneficially, the feeding component includes third cylinders 34 arranged on both sides of the material guiding frame 21. An internal push rod 32 is arranged inside the third cylinders 34. A falling hole 35 is arranged at the bottom of the sliding groove 36. A sliding plate 37 is slidably arranged in the falling hole 35. A fixing plate 31 is arranged at the top of the sliding plate 37. The fixing plate 31 is fixed to the internal push rod 32.

[0027] Beneficially, among them, the first cylinders 16 at different positions are electrically connected to the controller 22, the vision sensor 45 is electrically connected to the controller 22, the second cylinder 23 is electrically connected to the controller 22, the infrared sensor 44 is electrically connected to the controller 22, and the third cylinders 34 are electrically connected to the controller 22.

[0028] When the mechanism is used for teaching demonstration, after the conveyor 24 starts to work and runs continuously, a person places an object on the conveyor 24. The conveyor 24 drives the object to one side of the infrared sensor 44. After the infrared sensor 44 recognizes the object, it feeds back information to the controller 22. The controller 22 controls the conveyor 24 to stop working, and then uses the vision sensor 45 to identify the color of the object.

[0029] After the vision sensor 45 finishes the recognition, it feeds back information to the controller 22. The controller 22 controls the second cylinder 23 to work and then uses the second push plate 42 to push the object along the sliding groove 36 to the upper side of the sliding plate 37. Then the controller 22 controls the third cylinders 34 to work and drives the internal push rod 32, the fixing plate 31 and the sliding plate 37 to move, so that the sliding plate 37 is separated from the falling hole 35, and the object falls downward along the falling hole 35 to the upper side of the placement platform 15.

[0030] Since it is necessary to associate the first cylinders 16 at different positions with the colors of different objects. For example, when the color of the object is red, through the recognition of the vision sensor 45, the controller 22 controls the first cylinder 16 at the front side to work, and the push rod of the first cylinder 16 drives the first push plate 18 to push out, and the first push plate 18 pushes the red object on the placement platform 15 and then slides downward along the middle track 13 and the lower track 11.

[0031] Since there are multiple middle tracks 13 and lower tracks 11, and there are also multiple first cylinders 16, the above structure can be used to sort and convey objects of different colors along different positions of the middle track 13 and the lower track 11.

[0032] After the above work process is completed, each mechanism returns to its initial position, and then the conveyor 24 is restarted through the switch of the conveyor 24 to work, so as to place the next object for recognition.

[0033] The visual sensor 45 is a prior art. The visual sensor is the direct source of information for the entire machine vision system and is mainly composed of one or two image sensors, and sometimes also equipped with a light projector and other auxiliary equipment. The main function of the visual sensor is to obtain sufficient original images to be processed by the machine vision system.

[0034] The controller 22 is a prior art, including a PLC programmable controller or a single chip microcomputer and other controllers, which are used for automatic control process.

[0035] The above are only specific implementation methods of the utility model, but the protection scope of the utility model is not limited to this. Any changes or substitutions that are not conceived through creative work should be included in the protection scope of the utility model; therefore, the protection scope of the utility model should be based on the protection scope defined in the claims.
