DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0017] The technical scheme in the embodiments of the utility model will be clearly and completely described in combination with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model, and obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, instead of all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by the person skilled in the art without creative labor belong to the protection scope of the utility model.

[0018] Please refer to Figure 1 The utility model provides a technical scheme: micro round material loading mechanism, including loading assembly 1, material taking assembly 2, waiting station 3, material preparation station 4 and operation disc 5. Material taking assembly 2 moves material from loading assembly 1 to waiting station 3, material preparation station 4 or operation disc 5. Operation disc 5 is equipped with working station.

[0019] Please refer to Figures 1-3The loading assembly 1 comprises a loading frame 11, a loading disc 12, a loading driving element and a position sensor 14. The loading driving element is a stepping motor. The fixed end of the loading driving element is fixedly connected with the loading frame 11, and the output end is fixedly connected with the center of the loading disc 12. The loading disc 12 is arranged obliquely, and the loading driving element drives the loading disc 12 to rotate. The edge of the loading disc 12 is provided with uniformly distributed material taking grooves 15. The material taking grooves 15 form grooves on the surface of the loading disc 12, and the shape of the material taking grooves 15 is consistent with the shape of the material. Each material taking groove 15 is just for placing one material. The center of each material taking groove 15 is provided with an observation through hole. The position sensor 14 is fixedly arranged on the loading frame 11, and the detection end thereof faces the observation through hole. The position sensor 14 is arranged below the loading disc 12. The materials are placed on the loading disc 12. Since the loading disc 12 is arranged obliquely, most of the materials will stay at the low point of the loading disc 12. The loading driving element drives the loading disc 12 to rotate, and the materials placed on the loading disc 12 will move. Part of the materials will enter the material taking grooves 15. The materials that reach the high point of the loading disc 12 by rotating but do not completely enter the material taking grooves 15 will slide back to the low point of the loading disc 12 due to gravity. Only the materials that completely enter the material taking grooves 15 can reach the high point of the loading disc 12. The highest point of the loading disc 12 is set as a material taking point. The position sensor 14 can detect the materials in the material taking grooves 15 at the material taking point, so as to determine whether there is material in the material taking grooves 15.

[0020] Please refer to Figure 1 The material taking assembly 2 comprises a material taking frame 21, a lifting driving element 22, a transverse driving element 23, a material taking fixed seat 24, a material taking rotating seat 25, a material taking suction pipe 26 and a rotating driving element 27. The lifting driving element 22 drives the material taking fixed seat 24 to limit lifting. The transverse driving element 23 drives the material taking fixed seat 24 to limit transverse movement. The lifting driving element 22 and the transverse driving element 23 jointly complete the position movement of the material taking fixed seat 24. The material taking suction pipe 26 is fixedly arranged on the material taking rotating seat 25. The rotating driving element 27 is arranged on the material taking fixed seat 24. The rotating driving element 27 drives the material taking rotating seat 25 to limit rotation on the material taking fixed seat 24. The material taking suction pipe 26 can adsorb the materials. However, since the loading disc 12 is arranged obliquely, in order to enable the material taking suction pipe 26 to more accurately adsorb the materials, the rotating driving element 27 drives the material taking rotating seat 25 to be inclined at a certain angle to facilitate the material taking suction pipe 26 to take the materials.

[0021] The waiting station 3 and the standby material station 4 are arranged between the loading assembly 1 and the operation disc 5. The waiting station 3 is provided below with a displacement sensor for detecting whether the materials reach the waiting station 3.

[0022] In order to improve the feeding speed of the material, preferably, the material taking assembly 2 comprises a material moving seat 28 and a material moving suction pipe 29 in the embodiment.

[0023] The working principle and use process of the utility model are as follows: the material is placed on the loading disc 12, the loading driving element drives the loading disc 12 to rotate, the material enters into the material taking groove 15, the lifting driving element 22 and the transverse driving element 23 cooperate to drive the material taking fixed seat 24 to move, the material reaches the material taking point, the rotating driving element 27 drives the material taking suction pipe 26 to tilt to suck the material, the lifting driving element 22, the transverse driving element 23 and the rotating driving element 27 cooperate to drive the material taking suction pipe 26 to reach the waiting station 3, and the material moving suction pipe 29 is responsible for transferring the material on the waiting station 3 and the standby material station 4.

[0024] Finally, it should be noted that: the above only for the preferred examples of the utility model, and not for limiting the utility model, although the utility model is described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, for those skilled in the art, it still can modify the technical scheme recorded in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent replacement for part of the technical features.
