Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of display screen production equipment technology, and in particular to a magnet feeding mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] In the display manufacturing industry, magnet assembly is a crucial step, especially in the production of large LED displays. Traditional magnet assembly methods rely primarily on manual material sorting and assembly, which proves inadequate for the demands of high-speed automated production. Manual operation is not only labor-intensive but also inefficient, failing to meet the requirements of automated production lines, leading to increased production costs and a heavier burden on enterprises. Furthermore, the inherent subjectivity of manual operation makes it difficult to guarantee assembly precision, affecting the control of gaps between display modules, which is crucial for ensuring the visual effect of large screens.

[0003] With the development of the LED display market, higher demands have been placed on the structural design and manufacturing process of magnets. Special-shaped magnets, such as ring magnets and columnar magnets, have been developed to meet different installation requirements. Simultaneously, adjustable structural designs have emerged to improve installation accuracy and convenience. However, despite improvements in structural design and manufacturing processes, inefficiencies and operational instability still exist in the assembly process, particularly in magnet feeding. Magnets tend to stick together due to their magnetic properties, making it difficult to quickly separate individual magnets, sometimes requiring manual intervention, which limits the efficiency of the feeding process.
