[0025] A left cylinder 81 is installed on the left bracket 2 and located on the outside of the upper end of the left baffle 71, and at least one left material distribution block 11 arranged toward the right baffle 72 is installed on the piston rod of the left cylinder 81.

[0028] The left cylinder 81 and the right cylinder 82 are respectively mounted on the upper surfaces of the top plates 302 of the left bracket 2 and the right bracket 3 through supports.

[0029] The working principle is:

[0030] Trays are generally used to store precision products (such as chips and tiny parts), and a single tray is usually loaded with multiple products;

[0031] When in use, first move the movable carrier on the horizontal transport module to the rear end away from the vertical transport module, and place several (e.g., 20) vertically stacked trays on the movable carrier of the horizontal transport module manually or through an external handling mechanism;

[0032] Move the movable carrier block on the vertical transport module to the lower position. At this time, the movable carrier block is lower than the material tray stacked on the movable carrier plate of the horizontal transport module.

[0033] Drive the movable carrier plate of the horizontal transport module to move forward until the material tray stacked on it moves to the top of the movable carrier block on the vertical transport module;

[0034] Drive the movable carrier block of the vertical transport module to move upward, thereby moving the stacked trays upward from the movable carrier plate of the horizontal transport module;

[0035] Continue to drive the movable carrier of the vertical transport module to move up to the highest position, and make the stacking gap formed between the two material trays on the uppermost layer consistent with the height of the left and right material blocks;

[0036] At the same time, the left cylinder and the right cylinder are switched from the initial contracted state to the extended state, so that the left and right material blocks are simultaneously driven by the corresponding left and right cylinders to be embedded in the stacked gap formed between the two material trays on the uppermost layer;

[0037] Drive the movable carrier block of the vertical transport module downward. At this time, the tray on the top layer cannot move upward due to the stop of the left and right material distribution blocks, thus separating it from the tray below it.

[0038] The cylinder drives the beam plate to move from the rear end to the front end until the horizontal carrier plate moves to the bottom of the material tray between the left and right material blocks, thereby connecting to the material tray to facilitate subsequent processing of the product in the tray.

[0039] When the products in the tray on the horizontal carrier are processed, the empty tray is moved away by the external transport mechanism, and then the above operation is repeated to separate the top tray stacked on the movable carrier block of the vertical transport module to the horizontal carrier, and this process is repeated.

[0040] When the above-mentioned automatic loading mechanism is used, it can not only automatically realize batch loading of material trays, but also automatically separate and transport stacked material trays one by one, and ensure the stability of the material trays throughout the whole process, thereby ensuring the stability of the products in the material trays.

[0041] The above embodiments are intended only to illustrate the technical concepts and features of the present invention. Their purpose is to enable those familiar with the art to understand the contents of the present invention and implement them accordingly. They are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Any equivalent changes or modifications based on the spirit of the present invention are intended to be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
