5. The automatic assembly device for lead-out rods and insulating sleeves for a defrosting heater according to claim 3, characterized in that, The surface of the feeding seat has a first slope that slopes downward toward one side of the multi-level fixed steps. A hinge groove is provided at the top of the slope of the feeding seat. The end of the storage plate is hinged to the hinge groove via a hinge shaft. The bottom of the storage plate is connected to the bottom plate of the material box via a lifting cylinder.
6. The automatic assembly device for lead-out rods and insulating sleeves for a defrosting heater according to claim 3, characterized in that, The multi-level fixed steps are provided with multiple vertical grooves along their length. The feeding seat is provided with sliding holes that correspond to and communicate with the vertical grooves. The multi-level feeding steps are composed of multiple multi-level feeding sub-steps that are slidably connected to the vertical grooves and sliding holes. The bottom of the multi-level feeding sub-steps is fixedly connected to the output end of the feeding cylinder via a base. The distance between the vertical surface of each step of the multi-level feeding sub-step and the lead-out rod storage platform is greater than the distance between the vertical surface of the corresponding multi-level fixed steps and the lead-out rod storage platform, and the difference between the two distances is not greater than the outer diameter of the lead-out rod.
7. An automatic assembly device for lead-out rods and insulating sleeves for a defrosting heater according to claim 3, 5, or 6, characterized in that, The push rod is connected to the output end of the push cylinder via an adjustment assembly, which is used to adjust the length of the push rod extending into the discharge trough. The material box has a movable side plate whose position is adjustable along the length direction of the multi-level fixed steps, and the position of the movable side plate is corresponding to the end of the push rod.
8. The automatic assembly device for lead-out rods and insulating sleeves for a defrosting heater according to claim 7, characterized in that, The adjustment assembly includes an adjustment seat and a positioning bolt. The adjustment seat has a through hole for the push rod to slide horizontally. The positioning bolt is threaded through the adjustment seat and locked into contact with the push rod. The lead-out rod storage platform is provided with a scale mark for marking the initial length of the push rod in the discharge trough.
9. An automatic assembly device for lead-out rods and insulating sleeves for a defrosting heater according to claim 7, characterized in that, One end of the movable side plate has a stepped portion that mates with the multi-level fixed steps, and the other end of the movable side plate is fixed with a buckle plate. There is a slot between the buckle plate and the movable side plate for the back plate of the material box to be inserted. The buckle plate is threaded with a locking bolt that abuts against the back plate of the material box.
10. An automatic assembly device for lead-out rods and insulating sleeves for a defrosting heater according to claim 5, characterized in that, The material bin is equipped with a lead-out rod detection sensor, and the insulating sleeve receiving seat is equipped with an insulating sleeve detection sensor. The lead-out rod detection sensor is fixedly installed on the side wall of the material bin above the storage plate and is used to sense the stacking height of the lead-out rods in the material bin. The insulating sleeve detection sensor passes through the insulating sleeve receiving seat and is connected to the arc-shaped receiving groove, and is used to sense the insulating sleeves entering the arc-shaped receiving groove.
