[0016] The feeding and taking mechanism is respectively arranged at both sides of the opening end of the storage magazine 2. The feeding and taking mechanism comprises a rack 1 which comprises a group of supports vertically arranged along the opening direction of the storage magazine, and the interval between the supports is equivalent to the opening width of the storage magazine 2. The outer end of the rack 1 is provided with a clamping jaw air cylinder 13, the bottom of the clamping jaw air cylinder 13 is arranged on a transmission track 12, and the upper end of the rack 1 is provided with auxiliary wheels 11. The clamping jaw air cylinder 13 drives the material arranged on the auxiliary wheels to realize reciprocating movement along the direction of the storage magazine under the driving of a linear motor. The material in the utility model is arranged on a tray 3, and the two ends of the tray 3 extend outward and are provided with clamping protrusions 31 for clamping by the clamping jaw air cylinder 13. The auxiliary wheels 11 facilitate the transmission of the tray, and the tray arranged on the auxiliary wheels 11 moves under the push-pull of the clamping jaw air cylinder 13. The auxiliary wheels 11 are arranged in parallel and uniformly on the upper end of the support. In the embodiment, the transmission track 12 is arranged between the supports.

[0017] The feeding and taking mechanism further comprises a material blocking mechanism arranged on the outer side of the rack 1, the material blocking mechanism comprises a pushing air cylinder 41 and a material blocking plate 42 connected to the air cylinder shaft of the pushing air cylinder 41, and the front end of the material blocking plate 42 is provided with a material blocking notch matched with the tray. Generally, the tray is quadrilateral, and the material blocking notch is V-shaped to block the end of the tray.

[0018] In order to better understand the utility model, the following describes the use principle of the device:

[0019] First, the empty tray is arranged on the auxiliary wheels of the feeding and taking mechanism, the clamping protrusions 31 at the outer end of the tray are clamped and positioned by the clamping jaw air cylinder, the pushing air cylinder 41 of the material blocking mechanism works to drive the material blocking plate 42 to abut against the end of the tray, and the tray can be stably arranged on the rack by positioning the two ends of the tray. At this time, the product can be arranged in the tray by other external devices or manually. When the tray is full, the pushing air cylinder 41 drives the material blocking plate 42 to retract, and the clamping jaw air cylinder moves along the transmission track to the storage mechanism under the driving of the motor, so as to drive the tray into the storage magazine 2. After completion, the clamping jaw air cylinder resets. If the storage magazine 2 has a tray in the storage card slot at the height of the tray arranged on the rack, the storage magazine 2 will be adjusted in height by the up-down driving air cylinder 21 at the bottom of the storage magazine 2 to adapt to the height of the empty storage card slot for storing the next material.
