[0028] See also Figure 1-3 As shown, this embodiment is a fast switching sorting head of a material sorting device, comprising:

[0029] Robotic arm 1;

[0030] The robot arm 1 automatically drives the sorting mechanism to perform sorting;

[0031] The sorting mechanism includes a fixed plate 201 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the end of the robot arm 1, and the outer wall of the fixed plate 201 is attached to the support plate 202;

[0032] The support plate 202 is supported by the fixing plate 201;

[0033] The limiting mechanism includes four mounting holes equidistantly provided on the support plate 202 and the fixed plate 201. A fixing cylinder 302 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the mounting hole of the support plate 202. A button 301 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the circumference of the fixing cylinder 302. A movable rod 303 and a second spring 305 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the button 301 near one end of the fixing cylinder 302. A limiting hole 306 is formed through the end of the fixing cylinder 302. A limiting ball 307 is movably connected to the inner wall of the limiting hole 306.

[0034] The fixed cylinder 302 is supported by the support plate 202, and the button 301 is supported by the fixed cylinder 302. The button 301 drives the movable rod 303 to move. The movable rod 303 extends into the fixed cylinder 302 to make the limiting ball 307 slide into the groove 304. The second spring 305 rebounds to make the movable rod 303 return to its original position, thereby pushing the limiting ball 307 out of the limiting hole 306.

[0035] Working principle: Continuously pressing the button 301 causes the movable rod 303 to extend into the inner cavity of the fixed cylinder 302, causing the limiting ball 307 to slide into the groove 304, so that the limiting ball 307 does not contact the inner wall of the mounting hole of the fixed plate 201. After releasing the button 301, the second spring 305 rebounds and the movable rod 303 returns to its original position. The movable rod 303 pushes the limiting ball 307 to contact the inner wall of the mounting hole of the fixed plate 201, and the support plate 202 is installed. Continuously pressing the button 301 causes the support plate 202 to be removed from the fixed plate 201.

[0036] In this step, the support plate 202 and the fixing plate 201 can be quickly disassembled and assembled.

[0037] See also Figure 1-3 As shown, this embodiment is based on the above embodiment 1 and also includes:

[0038] A sliding groove 203 is formed on the outer wall of the support plate 202, and a first spring 204 is symmetrically fixedly connected to the inner wall of the sliding groove 203, and a clamping frame 205 is fixedly connected to the end of the first spring 204;

[0039] The first spring 204 rebounds to allow the clamping frame 205 to clamp the material;

[0040] The clamping frame 205 is triangular in shape and is slidably connected to the inner wall of the slide 203. The end of the robotic arm 1 is fixedly connected to an electric push rod 206, which passes through the slide 203.

[0041] The clamping frame 205 slides through the chute 203 and the clamped material is pushed by the electric push rod 206;

[0042] A groove 304 is formed on the outer circumference of the movable rod 303, and the end of the second spring 305 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the fixed cylinder 302;

[0043] The outer wall of the fixed plate 201 is fixedly connected with third springs 308 at equal intervals, and the end of the third spring 308 is fixedly connected with a pressing plate 309;

[0044] The buttons 301 are pressed uniformly by the pressing plate 309, and the buttons 301 are returned uniformly by the rebound of the third spring 308;

[0045] When the third spring 308 is in a fully compressed state, the pressing plate 309 contacts the button 301;

[0046] Working principle: When it is necessary to press the button 301, the pressing plate 309 is directly pressed to squeeze the third spring 308. All buttons 301 can be pressed into the fixed cylinder 302 at the same time. The pressing plate 309 is released to make the third spring 308 rebound, thereby returning the button 301 to its original position. The material pushes the clamping frame 205, and the collecting clamping frame 205 slides along the chute 203 and squeezes the first spring 204. The first spring 204 rebounds to make the clamping frame 205 clamp the material. The robot arm 1 moves the clamped material, and the electric push rod 206 pushes the material to achieve sorting.

[0047] In this step, all the fixing cylinders 302 can be disassembled and assembled in the mounting holes of the fixing plate 201, thereby increasing the efficiency of quick disassembly and assembly.

[0048] It should also be noted that, in the description of this utility model, unless otherwise expressly specified or limited, the terms "disposed," "installed," "connected," and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, they may refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, or integral connections; they may refer to mechanical connections or electrical connections; they may refer to direct connections or indirect connections through an intermediate medium; and they may refer to internal communication between two components. Those skilled in the art will be able to understand the specific meanings of the above terms in this utility model based on specific circumstances.

[0049] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art will be able to modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments or replace some of the technical features therein with equivalents.
