Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of tool management, in particular to a tool loading device. Background Art

[0002] In the existing tool cabinet, when returning tools, they are stored separately in a cabinet, and then manually recycled and sorted one by one into the tool-taking cabinet, which consumes a lot of manpower. The applicant has proposed another tool receiving and sending device in another case, which can automatically store the tool box at the loading place by clamping with a clamping jaw into a storage cabinet that combines tool returning and receiving, thus saving labor. However, when the clamping jaw clamps the tool box, it needs to scan the code in a fixed area to obtain the tool box information. When the loading jig is in a fixed position, the clamping jaw needs to move in sequence to clamp the tool boxes on the loading jig and then return to the code scanning area, increasing the moving distance and reducing the tool warehousing speed. At the same time, after the clamping jaw clamps the tool box, it will flip the tool box in a specific direction and angle so that the bar code of the tool box faces the code scanner for code scanning. If the tool box is placed upside down in the loading jig, it will cause the bar code to face away from the code scanner after flipping the tool box and unable to perform code scanning.
