[0019] The present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that the directions or positional relationships indicated by directional terms such as "upper, lower" and "top, bottom" are generally based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings and are intended only to facilitate the description of the present invention and simplify the description. Unless otherwise indicated, these directional terms do not indicate or imply that the devices or components referred to must have a specific direction or be constructed and operated in a specific direction, and therefore should not be understood as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention; the directional terms "inside" and "outside" refer to the inside and outside relative to the outline of each component itself.

[0020] like Figure 1-4 As shown, a material changing device for an automatic screw locking machine includes a loading conveyor belt bracket 1 and a unloading conveyor belt bracket 2 fixedly mounted on a workbench (not shown), a loading conveyor belt 3 and an unloading conveyor belt 4 being mounted on the loading conveyor belt bracket and the unloading conveyor belt bracket, respectively, and a mold positioning assembly is also mounted on the loading conveyor belt bracket;

[0021] It also includes two lifting cylinders 5 fixedly mounted on the workbench, the cylinder rods of the lifting cylinders are set upward and fixedly connected to the lifting seat 6, the lifting seat is fixedly mounted with a connecting seat 8 through two cross arms 7, a forward and reverse motor 9 is fixedly mounted on the connecting seat, the output shaft of the forward and reverse motor passes through the connecting seat and is fixed with a rotating arm 10, and both ends of the rotating arm respectively drive the electric clamp 11 to move through a lateral moving component.

[0022] Thus, one side of the material changing device of the workbench is a screw locking station, which is equipped with an automatic screw locking machine. After the automatic screw locking machine finishes screwing the product on the mold placed in the screw locking station, the mold base 12 with the product to be screwed is driven by the loading conveyor to the mold positioning assembly position for positioning. The lifting cylinder descends, and the two electric clamps respectively clamp the mold at the screw locking station and the mold at the mold positioning assembly position, and then drive them to rotate 180 degrees. After that, the horizontal moving assembly drives the mold base holding the screwed product to the position of the unloading conveyor. The lifting cylinder descends, causing the mold to descend, and the electric clamps are released, realizing synchronous loading and unloading, improving efficiency.

[0023] Specifically, the electric clamp is an existing structure, and its clamping end is used to clamp the mold base.

[0024] During implementation, the mold positioning assembly includes a positioning frame 13 with an opening at one end. The positioning frame is fixedly connected to the feeding conveyor frame via a number of connecting rods. Two sides of the positioning frame are provided with clearance openings corresponding to the actuating ends of the electric clamps, facilitating the positioning of the mold.

[0025] During implementation, a guide post 14 is fixedly mounted on the workbench, and the lifting seat is provided with a guide hole that is slidably matched with the guide post, so as to guide the movement of the lifting seat.

[0026] During implementation, the lateral movement assembly includes a screw 15, two supports fixedly mounted on the pivot arm, the screw rotatably connected to the supports via bearings, a servo motor 16 fixedly mounted on the pivot arm, the servo motor's output shaft fixedly connected to one end of the screw, a nut block threadedly connected to the screw, a slider 17 fixed to the outer side of the nut block, the slider slidingly engaging the pivot arm, a connecting block fixed downwardly to the slider, a sliding hole formed in the pivot arm that slidably engages the connecting block, the connecting block passing through the sliding hole and fixedly connected to the electric clamp. The servo motor drives the screw to rotate, which in turn drives the connecting block and the electric clamp to move via the nut block and slider.

[0027] During implementation, a rubber pad is fixed to the clamping end of the electric clamp to better clamp the template.

[0028] Specifically, a PLC controller is included to control the operation of the electrical components. When the forward and reverse motor is in operation, it rotates 180 degrees forward and 180 degrees reverse, which can better prevent the pipelines and wires from being entangled.

[0029] Finally, it should be noted that those skilled in the art may make various modifications and variations to the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Thus, if such modifications and variations fall within the scope of the claims and their equivalents, the present invention is intended to include such modifications and variations.
