[0023] The base 1 is also provided with a loading assembly, which comprises a loading platform 31, a cable tie storage magazine 32 and a moving driver (not shown due to the angle). The cable tie storage magazine 32 is detachably loaded on the loading platform 31. The cable tie storage magazine 32 comprises a plurality of cable tie storage slots 30 arranged at intervals, which are used to position and place a single cable tie 100. The moving driver is drivingly connected to the loading platform 31 and is used to drive the loading platform 31 and the cable tie storage magazine 32 thereon to move back and forth along the arrangement direction of the cable tie storage slots 30. The bundling station 20 is arranged on the moving path of the cable tie storage magazine 32, so that the moving driver can drive the cable tie storage magazine 32 to move close to or away from the bundling station 20, so as to move the cable ties 100 on the cable tie storage magazine 32 to the bundling station 20 one by one. The moving driver can be realized by any driving device, such as a motor, a pneumatic cylinder, an oil cylinder, etc., as long as it can finally drive the loading platform 31 to move. It can be understood that after each cable tie 100 on the cable tie storage magazine 32 reaches the bundling station 20, the moving driver can be controlled to stop moving by electrical control technology. For example, a sensor (such as a photoelectric sensor) for detecting the cable tie 100 is arranged on the bundling station 20. Once the sensor detects the cable tie 100, a signal is sent to the controller to control the moving driver to pause, so that the loading assembly can realize step-by-step movement to the bundling station 20. When the cable tie 100 is paused at the bundling station 20, the bundling execution device is started to automatically bundle the cable tie 100.

[0024] The specific structure of the loading platform 31 and the cable tie storage magazine 32 can be referred to Figure 3 and Figure 4, the loading platform 31 is in a disc structure, and has a positioning groove 310 for accommodating the ribbon storage magazine 32. The positioning groove 310 is provided with an elastic top rod assembly 312 at one end. The elastic top rod assembly 312 is used to top the ribbon storage magazine 32 by elastic force, so that the ribbon storage magazine 32 is clamped in the positioning groove 310. Specifically, the elastic top rod assembly 312 includes a fixed seat 313, a sliding top rod 314 and an elastic member 315. The fixed seat 313 is fixedly connected to one end of the positioning groove 310. The sliding top rod 314 is slidably connected to the fixed seat 313. The elastic member 315 is arranged at one end of the sliding top rod 314 and at the other end of the fixed seat 313. The elastic member 315 provides elastic force to the sliding top rod 314, so that the sliding top rod 314 always has a tendency to move out of the fixed seat 313. The sliding top rod 314 is used to top the ribbon storage magazine 32, and the ribbon storage magazine 32 is clamped by the groove wall of the positioning groove 310.

[0025] The sliding top rod 314 is further fixedly connected to an unlocking portion 316. Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 5 The unlocking portion 316 is arranged opposite to a blocking portion 220. The blocking portion 220 is fixedly arranged on the moving path of the loading platform 31 away from the bundling station 20. The blocking portion 220 is used to block the unlocking portion 316 when the loading platform 31 moves away from the bundling station 20. When the loading platform 31 loaded with the ribbon storage magazine 32 moves away from the bundling station 20, the blocking portion 220 blocks the unlocking portion 316, so that the sliding top rod 314 cannot continue to move. However, the loading platform 31 can continue to drive the ribbon storage magazine 32 to move by the cooperation of the positioning groove 310 and the ribbon storage magazine 32, so that the ribbon storage magazine 32 is separated from the sliding top rod 314, and the sliding top rod 314 cannot continue to clamp the ribbon storage magazine 32. Then, the ribbon storage magazine 32 can be unloaded by using a grabbing mechanism such as a robot to grab the ribbon storage magazine 32. After the ribbon storage magazine 32 is grabbed, the loading platform 31 is in an empty state. If the ribbon storage magazine 32 needs to be loaded, the ribbon storage magazine 32 loaded with ribbon is placed in the positioning groove 310 by using the grabbing mechanism such as the robot, and the loading platform 31 is controlled to move towards the bundling station 20, so that the sliding top rod 314 clamps the ribbon storage magazine 32 again. Through the unloading and loading of the ribbon storage magazine 32, the empty magazine can be unloaded and the full magazine can be loaded.

[0026] The whole strap storage magazine 32 is moved by the movement of the loading platform 31, and then the strap 100 is transferred to the bundling station 20. In this embodiment, the strap storage magazine 32 is clamped by the elastic force of the elastic top rod assembly 312, and the clamping of the strap storage magazine 32 is released by the movement of the loading platform 31, so that the loading and unloading of the strap storage magazine 32 on the loading platform do not need to be realized by a clamping cylinder, thereby reducing the number of automatic driving devices and the complexity of the automatic control of the automatic bundling equipment.

[0027] When the stop portion 220 stops the unlocking portion 316, the sliding top rod 314 cannot continue to clamp the strap storage magazine 32, and at this time the strap storage magazine 32 can be freely grabbed by the grabbing device. In order to accurately determine the execution time of the grabbing device, a detector can also be arranged to judge whether the loading platform 31 moves to the position where the stop portion 220 stops the unlocking portion 316, such as Figure 2 In this embodiment, the first detection portion 41 is arranged on the base 1, and the second detection portion 42 is arranged on the loading assembly. The first detection portion 41 and the second detection portion 42 are configured to be at the position where the detection signal is generated when the stop portion 220 stops the unlocking portion 316. Once the stop portion 220 stops the unlocking portion 316, the first detection portion 41 and the second detection portion 42 generate a signal to indicate the grabbing action of the grabbing device on the strap storage magazine 32. The second detection portion 42 can be arranged on the loading platform 31 or the strap storage magazine 32. The first detection portion 41 and the second detection portion 42 can be any displacement sensor capable of detecting movement, such as an optical sensor, an ultrasonic sensor, a capacitive sensor, etc. The first detection portion 41 and the second detection portion 42 can also be replaced by a switch triggered by the contact between the stop portion 220 and the unlocking portion 316, such as a micro switch or a magnetic reed switch. The switch can be directly attached to the stop portion 220 or the unlocking portion 316.

[0028] The stop portion 220 is arranged on the mounting seat of the strap threading guide portion 22 in this embodiment, that is, the stop portion 220 is arranged on the original mounting seat of the strap threading guide portion 22 in this embodiment, which can save installation space and reduce costs.

[0029] As Figure 3 , 4 The limiting piece 311 is arranged on the loading platform 31 to limit the strap storage magazine 32 in the depth direction of the positioning groove 310, so as to improve the stability of the strap storage magazine 32 when it is loaded on the loading platform 31.

[0030] The elastic member 315 is a compression spring in this embodiment, but it can also be a tension spring, a spring piece or other elastic members in other embodiments, as long as the installation mode is adapted.

[0031] In this embodiment, the thickness direction of the single strap 100 loaded into the strap storage slot 30 is defined as the thickness direction of the strap storage slot 30, and the side of the thickness direction of the strap storage slot 30 is provided as an open insertion port, which allows the strap 100 to be directly inserted into the strap storage slot 30 from the thickness direction thereof. The thickness direction of the strap 100 is also the direction of the bending and bundling of the strap 100. Since the side of the thickness direction of the strap storage slot 30 is completely open, the strap 100 remaining in the strap storage slot 30 can also directly perform the action of bending and bundling. In other words, under such a setting, the strap 100 remaining in the strap storage slot 30 still has a space for directly performing the action of bending and bundling, so that the strap 100 loaded into the strap storage slot 30 can directly perform the action of bending and bundling without leaving the strap storage slot 30.

[0032] Although the utility model is specifically shown and introduced in combination with the preferred embodiments, it should be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes can be made to the utility model in form and details without departing from the spirit and scope of the utility model defined in the appended claims, and all fall within the protection scope of the utility model.
