[0002] In common machining processes, push rod mechanisms are often used. The moving end of the push rod mechanism pushes the workpiece from the material box into the transfer track to achieve the automatic transfer of the workpiece or material. However, during the transfer process, the workpiece may get stuck. At this time, the existing push rod mechanism will still forcefully push, which is likely to cause damage to the workpiece or other components. Utility Model Content

[0003] In order to reduce the possibility of component damage, the present application provides a push rod mechanism with a buffer structure.

[0004] The push rod mechanism with a buffer structure provided by the present application adopts the following technical solutions:

When it is fully ejected, the travel switch on the side away from the sliding block is triggered. By calculating the time difference between the disconnection of one travel switch and the triggering of the other travel switch, it can be used as a criterion for judging whether the workpiece is stuck. When the time difference exceeds a certain value, the staff can be reminded that the workpiece at the pushing mechanism may be stuck and needs to be cleaned.
