[0034] Working principle:

[0035] Initial preparation: Install multiple magnetic ring tubes with magnetic rings on the magnetic ring tube fixing frame of the feeding assembly. The magnetic ring tube fixing frame is located in the chute and is movable.

[0036] Magnetic ring tube displacement and alignment: The displacement cylinder in the magnetic ring displacement assembly drives the magnetic ring tube fixing frame to move within the slide groove via the displacement connecting block, thereby displacing the magnetic ring tube and moving the target magnetic ring tube to the designated position. Then, the alignment cylinder actuates, further fine-tuning the position of the magnetic ring tube fixing frame via the displacement connecting block to ensure the magnetic ring tube is correctly aligned, allowing the magnetic ring to accurately fall directly above the positioning tube of the magnetic ring delivery displacement assembly below.

[0037] Magnetic ring gripping and transfer: The magnetic ring feeding cylinder of the magnetic ring shifting assembly pushes the connecting block, which drives the gripper component to move within the magnetic ring shifting groove. The gripper component opens its gripper hole, and when it moves above the positioning tube, the gripper component descends to grip the magnetic ring on the positioning tube (the magnetic ring falls from the magnetic ring material tube directly above onto the positioning tube). After successful gripping, the magnetic ring feeding cylinder reverses its movement, and the gripper component moves backward along the groove with the magnetic ring.

[0038] Magnetic ring loading and unloading: After the gripper component moves the magnetic ring above the pressing magnetic ring assembly, the magnetic ring loading cylinder drives the magnetic ring loading component to rise, the gripper component releases the magnetic ring, and the magnetic ring is loaded by the magnetic ring loading component. Then, the pressing magnetic ring cylinder actuates, pushing the magnetic ring loading component to load the magnetic ring onto the product, completing the entire loading and distributing process. Afterwards, all components reset, ready for the next loading and distributing operation. Throughout the process, under the coordinated control of the control system (such as PLC, which can be configured according to actual conditions), all components work in an orderly manner according to the set program, ensuring efficient and accurate completion of the multi-tube magnetic ring loading and distributing task.

[0039] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the present utility model. Therefore, all equivalent technical solutions also fall within the scope of the present utility model. The patent protection scope of the present utility model should be defined by the claims.
