[0033] The frame 1 has a loading end 2 and a retrieving end 3 at both ends, each of which is provided with a side panel 15. The operator places the product on the tooling plate 4 at the loading end 2, and the product is transported to the retrieving end 3 and then taken away. The frame 1 is also provided with a lighting lamp 11.

[0034] The conveyor line is provided on the frame 1, and includes a first conveyor line 14 and two second conveyor lines 12 / 13. The first conveyor line 14 is located on a first horizontal plane and is used to convey the empty tooling board 4 of the retrieving end 3 back to the loading end 2 so that the operator can reload the tooling board; the two second conveyor lines are both located on a second horizontal plane and on both sides of the first conveyor line 14, and are both used to convey the tooling board 4 loaded with products from the loading end 2 to the retrieving end 3. In this embodiment, the first horizontal plane is lower than the second horizontal plane. In other embodiments, the first horizontal plane can be set to be higher than the second horizontal plane.

[0035] The lifting mechanism is provided at both the loading end 2 and the retrieving end 3. The lifting mechanism located at the loading end 2 is used to vertically convey the empty tooling plates 4 of the loading end 2 returned by the first conveyor line 14 to the two second conveyor lines, thereby realizing the circular transportation of the tooling plates 4 carrying the loading end 2; the lifting mechanism located at the retrieving end 3 is used to vertically convey the empty tooling plates 4 from which the products have been removed from the two second conveyor lines along the third direction Z downward to the first conveyor line 14, thereby realizing the circular transportation of the tooling plates 4 at the retrieving end 3.

[0036] In one embodiment of the present invention, referring to Figure 3 As shown, the lifting mechanism located at the loading end 2 includes two first lifting platforms 23 and two second lifting cylinders 25. The two first lifting platforms 23 are respectively arranged at the ends of the two second conveyor lines so that the empty tooling plate 4 can slide onto the first lifting platform 23 by inertia. The two first lifting platforms 23 are respectively driven by two second lifting cylinders 25 to lift and lower between the first horizontal plane and the second horizontal plane, and are used to carry the empty tooling plate 4 of the first conveyor line 14 and convey it vertically upward to the ends of the two second conveyor lines, so that the empty tooling plate 4 is at the end of its second conveyor line.

[0037] In one embodiment of the present invention, referring to Figure 3 As shown, the loading end 2 is provided with a transfer station 22 and loading stations located on the left and right sides of the transfer station 22.

[0041] In one embodiment of the present invention, referring to Figure 4 and 5 As shown, the material picking end 3 is provided with a second side pushing mechanism, which includes a second push plate 38 and a second motor. When the second lifting platform 39 is located at the first horizontal plane, the second motor drives the second push plate 38 to move along the first direction X, pushing the empty tooling plate 4 located at the second lifting platform 39 to the end of the first conveyor line 14, so that the empty tooling plate 4 enters the first conveyor line 14.

[0042] In one embodiment of the present invention, referring to Figure 4 and 5As shown, the material-taking end 3 is also provided with an operating table 33 and a transfer table 36. The operating table 33 is located at the second horizontal plane and at the end of the two second conveyor lines 12 / 13. The tooling board 4 transported by the second conveyor line 12 on the right slides directly onto the operating table 33, and the product is taken away at the operating table 33. The tooling board 4 transported by the second conveyor line 13 on the left slides directly onto the second lifting platform 39. The transfer table 36 is located at the first horizontal plane and at the end of the first conveyor line 14; when the second lifting platform 39 is located at the second horizontal plane, the operating table 33 is connected with the second lifting platform 39 so that the empty tooling board 4 on the operating table 33 slides onto the second lifting platform 39; when the second lifting platform 39 is located at the first horizontal plane, the transfer table 36 is connected with the second lifting platform 39, and under the push of the second push plate 38, the empty tooling board 4 on the second lifting platform 39 slides to the transfer table 36, and finally aligns with the end of the first conveyor line 14.

[0043] In one embodiment of the present invention, referring to Figure 5 As shown, in order for the empty tooling plate 4 on the transfer table 36 to slide onto the first conveyor line 14, the material picking end 3 is also provided with a third side pushing mechanism, and the third side pushing mechanism includes a third push plate 34 and a third motor 35. The third motor 35 drives the third push plate 34 to move along the second direction Y, pushing the tooling plate 4 located on the transfer table 36 into the first conveyor line 14.

[0044] In one embodiment of the present invention, several different tooling plates 4 are further included on the first conveying line 14 and the second conveying line for conveying different products.

[0045] In one embodiment of the present invention, referring to Figure 5 As shown, the surfaces of the transfer table 36 and the operating table 33 are both provided with universal wheels for reducing the friction force on the tooling plate 4 .

[0046] In one embodiment of the present invention, referring to Figure 3 and 5 As shown, rolling rollers 391 are provided on the surfaces of the first lifting platform 23 and the second lifting platform 39 to reduce the friction force on the tooling plate 4 .

[0047] In one embodiment of the present invention, referring to Figure 5 As shown, it also includes a fourth side pushing mechanism, which includes a fourth push plate 32, a fourth motor 31 and a screw. The fourth motor 31 drives the fourth push plate 32 to move along the first direction X through the screw, pushing the tooling plate 4 located on the operating table 33 to the second lifting platform 39.

[0048] In one embodiment of the present invention, the first conveyor line 14 includes a belt for conveying the tooling plate 4; the second conveyor line includes a plurality of rollers.

[0049] The working principle of the bilateral flexible operation linkage return line described in the utility model is:

[0050] When the first lifting platform 23 is on the second horizontal plane, the operator at the loading end 2 places the product on the tooling board 4 and gently pushes the tooling board 4 into the second conveyor line. The second conveyor line conveys the tooling board 4 to the retrieving end 3. At the retrieving end 3, the tooling board 4 slides to the second lifting platform 39 or the operating table 33 located on the second horizontal plane. If the tooling board 4 slides to the second lifting platform 39, the second lifting platform 39 and the empty tooling board 4 are lowered to the first horizontal plane after the product is taken away. Then the second push plate 38 pushes the empty tooling board 4 to the transfer table 36, and the third push plate 34 pushes the empty tooling board 4 on the transfer table 36 into the first conveyor line 14; if the tooling board 4 slides to the operating table 33, After the product is taken away, the fourth push plate 32 pushes the empty tooling plate 4 onto the second lifting platform 39, the second lifting platform 39 and the empty tooling plate 4 descend to the first horizontal plane, and then the second push plate 38 pushes the empty tooling plate 4 onto the transfer platform 36, and the third push plate 34 pushes the empty tooling plate 4 on the transfer platform 36 into the first conveyor line 14. When the empty tooling plate 4 is conveyed to the loading end 2, the empty tooling plate 4 slides onto the rolling roller of the transfer station 22, and the first push plate 27 selectively pushes the empty tooling plate 4 to the first lifting platform 23 on both sides according to the front working conditions, and then the first lifting platform 23 and the empty tooling plate 4 rise to the second horizontal plane, and the operator loads the empty tooling plate 4, and this cycle is repeated.

[0051] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely examples for clarity of explanation and are not intended to limit the implementation methods. Those skilled in the art will readily appreciate that other variations or modifications based on the above descriptions are possible. It is not necessary and impossible to enumerate all implementation methods here. Obvious variations or modifications arising therefrom remain within the scope of protection of the present invention.
