Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of material transportation technology in production lines, and in particular to a forward and backward feeding mechanism. Background Technology
[0002] One common method for material feeding in the automation industry is direct vibration feeding. In this method, the electromagnet and magnet in the actuator unit reciprocate in a linear motion via alternating current, transporting material forward in a single direction. The electromagnet and armature reciprocate under control, causing the upper part of the spring to drive the feeding track in a compound motion perpendicular to the spring. Because the spring's mechanical structure is fixed, it cannot transport material in the opposite direction. This method is unidirectional feeding and cannot feed in both directions (forward and backward), significantly reducing the equipment's operability. Furthermore, the electromagnet generates significant noise and aftershocks during operation, and the feeding speed cannot be accurately controlled. Summary of the Invention
