Several storage hopper components 3 for storing SSD trays and positioning carriers 4 for positioning and storing SSDs are fixedly connected side by side on the base 1. A positioning and picking component 6 for conveying SSD trays or SSDs is movably connected to the mounting frame 2 based on a screw sliding lifting component 5. A copying machine 7 and a card insertion component 8 for clamping the SSDs in the positioning carriers 4 and inserting them into the copying machine 7 for automatic copying are also fixedly connected to the base 1. A cache component 9 for storing finished SSDs is fixedly connected to the base 1. The positioning and picking component 6 conveys the SSDs stored in the storage hopper components 3 to the positioning carriers 4 for positioning. Then, the card insertion component 8 moves to the positioning carriers 4, clamps the SSDs, and inserts them into the copying machine 7 for data copying. After the copying is completed, the finished SSDs are placed in the cache component 9 for temporary storage, thereby realizing the automatic copying of SSDs. In this embodiment, the hopper assembly 3 has 6 sets, which are fixedly arranged in two rows on the base 1.
[0027] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 4Specifically, the hopper assembly 3 includes a set of hopper plates 32 symmetrically slidably connected to the base 1 based on slide rails 31, and adjusting screws 33 that drive the hopper plates 32 to slide synchronously in opposite directions. The hopper plates 32 have screw holes that cooperate with the adjusting screws 33. The adjusting screws 33 are composed of two coaxially arranged screws with opposite helical directions. A screw drive motor 34 is fixedly connected to the base 1 to drive the adjusting screws 33 to rotate. The screw drive motor 34 drives the adjusting screws 33 to rotate, thereby driving the hopper plates 32 to slide synchronously in opposite directions. A partition 35 is fixedly connected vertically in the middle of the hopper plates 32 to separate the hoppers 36. The base 1 includes a receiving hopper 37. A lifting screw slide 38 is fixedly connected to the base 1 along the vertical direction. A tray 39 for supporting SSD trays is fixedly connected to the sliding end of the lifting screw slide 38. An input conveyor belt 310 for inputting SSD trays into the output hopper 36 is fixedly connected to the base 1. The input conveyor belt 310 inputs the trays containing SSDs into the output hopper 36. The lifting screw slide 38 drives the tray to rise, thereby lifting the SSD trays for the positioning and picking component 6 to pick up. When the SSDs in the SSD trays are all picked up, the positioning and picking component 6 transports the empty SSD trays to the receiving hopper 37 for storage.
[0028] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 5Specifically, the lead screw sliding lifting assembly 5 includes an X-direction lead screw slide 51 fixedly connected to the mounting frame 2 along the X direction and a Y-direction lead screw slide 52 fixedly connected to the X-direction lead screw slide 51 along the Y direction.

Thus, the X-direction lead screw slide 51, the Y-direction lead screw slide 52, and the lifting electric cylinder 53 drive the positioning and picking assembly 6 to move at any position on the mounting frame 2. The positioning and picking assembly 6 is fixedly connected to the extension end of the lifting electric cylinder 53.

Several adsorption blocks are fixedly connected to the telescopic end of the first telescopic cylinder 66. The first suction nozzle 67 of the SSD has an adsorption hole 68 on the mounting plate 61 through which the first suction nozzle 67 passes. The adsorption and conveying of the material tray is realized by fixing the adsorption block 62 at the bottom of the mounting plate 61. The combination of the rotary motor 64 and the rotary plate 65 is set on the mounting plate 61, and the first telescopic cylinder 66 and the first suction nozzle 67 are set on the rotary plate 65. When it is necessary to pick up the SSD, the first telescopic cylinder 66 drives the first suction nozzle 67 to descend and protrude from the bottom surface of the adsorption block 62 to achieve adsorption of the SSD, thus improving the compactness of the structure.

End positioning cylinders 47 and side positioning cylinders 48 are fixedly connected to the positioning platform 42 to drive the end positioning plates 45 and side positioning plates 46 to slide. When the positioning and picking component 6 transports the SSD into the positioning slot 44, the end positioning cylinders 47 and side positioning cylinders 48 drive the end positioning plates 45 and side positioning plates 46 to abut against the end and side face of the SSD, thereby fixing the SSD in the positioning slot 44 so that the card insertion component 8 can pick it up and avoid damage to the SSD.
[0030] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2Specifically, the card insertion assembly 8 includes a first robotic arm 81 fixedly connected to the mounting bracket 2 and a fixed base 82 fixedly connected to the first robotic arm 81.

After the copying is completed, the first robotic arm 81 transfers the finished SSD to the cache assembly 9 for temporary storage.
[0031] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 7 Specifically, the cache component 9 includes a set of cache platforms 92 slidably connected to the base 1 based on the second guide rail 9131 and a set of second rodless cylinders 93 for sliding the cache platforms 92 respectively. The cache platforms 92 are provided with cache slots 94 for accommodating SSDs. By setting two cache platforms 92 and adjusting the position of the cache platforms 92 by the second rodless cylinders 93, the two cache platforms 92 can alternately cache materials.
