The upper part of the support assembly 2 is fixedly connected with a loading mechanism 3, which can facilitate the downward transportation of the placed workpieces. The middle part of the upper end of the outer surface of the bottom plate 1 is fixedly installed with a conveyor belt 4. The front side and the rear side of the upper part of the conveyor belt 4 are symmetrically fixedly connected with a carrying mechanism 5, which can carry the transmission mechanism 6 and the protection assembly 7. The middle parts of the mutually remote sides of the two carrying mechanisms 5 are fixedly connected with a transmission mechanism 6, which can adjust the telescopic amount of the protection assembly 7. The mutually close sides of the two transmission mechanisms 6 are rotatably connected with a protection assembly 7, which can protect the workpieces during the transmission process. The upper left part of the outer surface of the bottom plate 1 is fixedly connected with an unloading mechanism 8, which can facilitate the unloading of the workpieces.

[0023] To achieve the purpose of supporting the loading mechanism 3, refer to Figure 2 , the support assembly 2 includes a support frame 21, and the upper end of the outer surface of the support frame 21 is fixedly connected with a horizontal plate 22, which can stably support the loading table 31.

[0024] To achieve the purpose of facilitating the downward transportation of the placed workpieces, refer to Figure 2 , the loading mechanism 3 includes a loading table 31. The front side and the right side of the upper part of the outer surface of the loading table 31 are symmetrically fixedly connected with stop plates 32, which can intercept the workpieces, and the lower end of the outer surface of the loading table 31 is fixedly connected with the upper end of the outer surface of the horizontal plate 22.

[0025] To achieve the purpose of carrying the transmission mechanism 6 and the protection assembly 7, refer to Figure 2 , the carrying mechanism 5 includes a fixed frame 51, which can accommodate the protection assembly 7. The front end of the outer surface of the fixed frame 51 is fixedly connected with a U-shaped frame 52, which can fix the transmission mechanism 6.

[0026] For the purpose of protecting the workpieces during the transmission process, refer to Figure 3 , the transmission mechanism 6 includes an internally threaded tube 61, and a threaded rod 62 is threadedly connected to the inner surface of the internally threaded tube 61, which can adjust the telescopic amount of the protection component 7, and the outer surface of the internally threaded tube 61 is fixedly connected to the middle of the corresponding U-shaped frame 52.

[0027] When it is necessary to adjust the telescopic amount of the protection component 7, the threaded rod 62 can be rotated to push the corresponding protection frame 71 to perform telescopic movement in the inner cavity of the fixed frame 51, so as to limit the number of workpieces transported by the conveyor belt 4.

[0031] The working principle of the present utility model: First, the workpieces are quantitatively placed on the upper part of the loading table 31 and slide down to the upper part of the conveyor belt 4. At this time, according to the required amount of workpieces to be transported, the two threaded rods 62 are rotated to make the corresponding protection frames 71 slide telescopically along the inner cavity of the fixed frame 51, so that the two protection frames 71 and two groups of rubber rollers 72 control the amount of workpieces passing through the channel between them. At the same time, the amount of workpieces passing through their channels will contact the outer surfaces of the plurality of rubber rollers 72, and the impact force and friction force suffered by the workpieces can be effectively offset by the material of the plurality of rubber rollers 72. Finally, the transported workpieces will enter the bottom of the inner cavity of the blanking table 81 and slide down along the plurality of rotating rollers 82 for blanking work.
