[0026] The multi-bin sock loading machine in this embodiment includes a frame 1, a bin mechanism 2, an adjustment mechanism 3, and a sock picking mechanism 4. The bin mechanism 2 and the adjustment mechanism 3 are both installed on the frame 1, the sock picking mechanism 4 is installed on the adjustment mechanism 3, the bin mechanism 2 is located below the adjustment mechanism 3, and a limit stop 11 is provided on the frame 1, and the limit stop 11 can be used to limit the bin bottom plate 21 during the movement process.

[0027] The sock picking mechanism 4 in this embodiment includes a sock picking motor 41, a sock picking rotating shaft 42, a sock picking bracket 43, and a sock picking suction cup 44. The sock picking motor 41 is used to drive the sock picking rotating shaft 42 to rotate. The sock picking rotating shaft 42 is connected to the sock picking bracket 43, and the sock picking suction cup 44 is installed on the sock picking bracket 43. The sock picking motor 41 and the sock picking rotating shaft 42 are driven by a belt 46.

[0028] The number of the sock picking suction cups 44 in this embodiment is multiple, and the multiple sock picking suction cups 44 are arranged in an arc shape. It can be understood that the multiple sock picking suction cups 44 are arranged in the shape of a sock when unfolded, so as to facilitate the sock picking suction cups 44 to adsorb the unfolded socks and ensure that the socks will not separate from the sock picking suction cups 44 during the transfer process. A waist-shaped groove 45 is provided on the sock picking bracket 43, and the sock picking suction cup 44 is installed on the waist-shaped groove 45. The purpose of setting the waist-shaped groove 45 is to finely adjust the position of the sock picking suction cup 44 to be suitable for the suction of socks with different lengths.

[0029] In this embodiment, the bin mechanism 2 includes a bin bottom plate 21, a bin main body 22, a bin slide rail 23, a bin slider 24, and a bin cylinder 25. The bin main body 22 is installed on the top of the bin bottom plate 21. The bin slide rail 23 is arranged at the bottom of the bin bottom plate 21. The bin slider 24 is arranged on the frame 1, and the bin slider 24 cooperates with the bin slide rail 23. The cylinder barrel of the bin cylinder 25 is arranged on the frame 1, and the piston rod of the bin cylinder 25 is connected to the bin bottom plate 21.

[0030] The bin main body 22 in this embodiment is composed of a first side plate 26, a second side plate 27, and a third side plate 28. The first side plate 26 is perpendicular to the second side plate 27, and the second side plate 27 is inclined to the third side plate 28. The purpose is that the trough-shaped structure formed by the first side plate 26, the second side plate 27, and the third side plate 28, that is, the bin main body 22, can match the shape of the unfolded socks.

[0031] The adjustment mechanism 3 in this embodiment includes an adjustment base 31, a three-axis moving platform, and an adjustment bracket 35. The adjustment base 31 is installed on the frame 1. The three-axis moving platform is installed on the adjustment base 31. The adjustment bracket 35 is installed on the three-axis moving platform. The sock-taking motor 41 and the sock-taking rotating shaft 42 are both installed on the adjustment bracket 35.

[0032] The three-axis moving platform in this embodiment includes an X-axis moving platform 32, a Y-axis moving platform 33, and a Z-axis moving platform 34. The X-axis moving platform 32 is installed on the adjustment base 31. The Y-axis moving platform 33 is installed on the X-axis moving platform 32. The Z-axis moving platform 34 is installed on the Y-axis moving platform 33. The adjustment bracket 35 is installed on the Z-axis moving platform 34.

[0033] Specifically, when the multi-bin sock loading machine is working, before working, the unfolded socks are placed in the bin main body 22. The bin cylinder 25 drives the bin bottom plate 21 to move along the bin slide rail 23 on the bin slider 24, and moves the bin main body 22 and the bin bottom plate 21 with the unfolded socks to the lower part of the adjustment base 31. By setting the X-axis moving platform 32, the Y-axis moving platform 33, and the Z-axis moving platform 34, the sock-taking mechanism 4 can be moved in the X-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis directions. When the sock-taking mechanism 4 is located above the bin main body 22 with the unfolded socks, the sock-taking motor 41 can drive the sock-taking rotating shaft 42 to rotate, and drive the sock-taking bracket 43 to rotate through the sock-taking rotating shaft 42 to adjust the position of the sock-taking suction cup 44. The unfolded socks in the bin main body 22 are adsorbed by the sock-taking suction cup 44, and then the socks are moved to the next working station through the X-axis moving platform 32, the Y-axis moving platform 33, and the Z-axis moving platform 34, that is, the sock loading process is completed.

[0034] In addition, it should be noted that for the specific embodiments described in this specification, the shapes, names, etc. of the components can be different.
