[0002] Photo frame hooks are widely used in photo frames, and various similar photo frame accessories are installed on back plates by mechanical equipment. The feeding methods include flat pushing, guide rail type and the like. These methods have drawbacks. The flat pushing method relies on vibration to advance in a fixed track, and the hooks inside can overlap and get stuck, which cannot move. The guide rail type is to pass the hook small accessory line buckle part to a cavity guide column, and a plurality of hooks are overlapped and then pushed to the lowermost one by a cylinder for feeding. If the hooks above the cavity guide rail are not placed correctly, the hooks cannot slide in the guide rail and get stuck in the middle. In addition, the overlapping hooks can be pushed out when the cylinder advances, which can cause the push rod to break and other problems. The mechanical use is not smooth, and the efficiency is low.

[0032] like Figures 1-7 As shown: A novel automatic feeding device for picture frame hooks includes an inlet bracket 1 for conveying hooks 100, one end of which is connected to a vibratory feeder; a control robot module 2, several control robot modules 2 arranged sequentially on one side of the inlet bracket 1 with their clamping ends opening and closing relative to each other on the inlet bracket 1; an upper lifting device 3, located at the end of the inlet bracket 1 away from the vibratory feeder; and a pushing device 4, the upper lifting device 3 located on the pushing end of the pushing device 4, which is used to push the upper lifting device 3 to the next station. In actual operation, this automatic feeding device for picture frame hooks 100 is located between the vibratory feeder and the suction turntable station, used to convey the hooks 100 in the vibratory feeder to the area below the suction turntable station so that the suction turntable can pick up the hooks 100.

[0033] like Figures 5-7As shown: The upper lifting device 3 includes an upper lifting module 301 and an upper lifting cylinder 302. The upper lifting module 301 has a groove 303. The upper lifting cylinder 302 is fixedly installed below the upper lifting module 301. The pushing end of the upper lifting cylinder 302 is correspondingly set with the groove 303. A push block 304 is installed on the pushing end. The push block 304 moves up and down in the groove 303. In this embodiment, the upper lifting cylinder 302 is fixedly installed below the upper lifting module 301 by a cylinder seat. The shape of the push block 304 is the same as the shape of the groove 303 and they match each other to ensure that the push block 304 can push the hook 100 out completely during the material pushing process, thereby avoiding the occurrence of material jamming.

[0034] In this embodiment, the guide bracket 1 is rod-shaped and has an input end that is connected to the vibratory plate and an output end that is correspondingly set above the groove position 303. During the conveying process, the hook 100 is sleeved on the guide bracket 1 and slides down through the guide bracket 1 until it is conveyed into the groove position 303.

[0035] like Figures 3-7 As shown: The pushing device 4 includes a mounting frame 401 and a pushing cylinder 402 disposed on the mounting frame 401. The upper push module 301 is fixedly mounted on the pushing end of the pushing cylinder 402. The mounting frame 401 is used to fix and connect with the machine frame. The pushing cylinder 402 is arranged laterally on the mounting frame 401, and its pushing end faces the suction turntable.

[0036] like Figures 1-3 As shown: One end of the guide bracket 1 is formed with an arc-shaped slope 101 that facilitates connection with the output end of the vibratory plate. The end of the guide bracket 1 away from the arc-shaped slope 101 is correspondingly positioned above the groove position 303. The arc-shaped slope 101 helps to connect with the vibratory plate track, making it easier for the hook 100 to enter the guide bracket 1.

[0037] like Figure 4 As shown: A gap 300 with a hook 100 thickness is formed between the bottom surface of the groove 303 and the guide bracket 1. The gap 300 with a hook 100 thickness is also formed between the bottom surface of the groove 303 and the guide bracket 1 to facilitate the movement of the top module 301 and limit the hook 100 below the guide bracket 1, thereby improving the feeding efficiency.

[0038] like Figures 1-3As shown: The control robot module 2 includes a first control robot, a second control robot, and a third control robot. The first control robot, the second control robot, and the third control robot are sequentially fixed on a connecting plate 5 from top to bottom. In this embodiment, the connecting plate 5 is used to fix the first control robot, the second control robot, and the third control robot on the same vertical plane. The connecting plate 5 is also provided with connecting corner blocks. Through the connecting corner blocks, the connecting plate 5 on which the control robot module 2 is installed can be vertically installed on the mounting column on one side of the vibratory feeder, and the mounting column is fixed on the frame.

[0039] like Figures 1-3 As shown: The control robot module 2 includes a robot cylinder 201 and a sensor for detecting the hook 100. The drive end of the robot cylinder 201 is provided with two relatively openable clamping parts 202, which are respectively arranged on both sides of the guide bracket 1.

[0040] In this embodiment, the control robot module 2 is divided into three robots: upper, middle, and lower, which are operated by robot cylinders 201. When the hook 100 in the vibratory feeder enters the guide bracket 1 above the uppermost robot, the robot releases and releases the next hook 100 to enter the uppermost robot. The second robot releases and enters the uppermost robot. The third robot releases and enters the groove 303 of the upper module 301.

[0041] like Figure 3 As shown: The clamping part 202 has a slot. When the two clamping parts 202 are clamped together, the slot forms a clamping opening that matches the shape of the guide bracket 1. By setting the clamping opening that matches the shape of the guide bracket 1, the blocking effect on the hook 100 is achieved.

[0042] The operation mode of this utility model is as follows:

[0043] In use, the vibratory feeder vibrates several hooks 100 into the guide bracket 1 above the first robotic arm. The robotic arm then releases, and a hook is placed above the second robotic arm. The second robotic arm releases, and a hook is placed above the third robotic arm. The third robotic arm releases, and a hook is placed into the groove 303 of the upper lifting device 3. The pushing device 4 pushes the hooks 100 out along the groove 303 below the suction turntable. The suction mechanism on the suction turntable then sucks up the delivered product. Afterward, the upper lifting module 301 returns to its original position, completing the entire feeding process.

[0044] In addition, each robotic arm lowers only one hook at a time to prevent hook overlap. When the bottom hook is released, a sensor detects this, indicating the start of the next operation; only one product can be lowered at a time. The number of products loaded onto the support bracket below the third robotic arm is controlled to a certain limit; the robotic arm will only release when the number falls below this limit, allowing more products to be added.

[0045] In summary, this device uses the cooperation of an inlet bracket 1, several control robot modules 2, an upper lifting device 3, and a pushing device 4 to feed the picture frame hooks 100. Specifically, the inlet bracket 1 is designed to match the shape of the hook 100's buckle. One end of the inlet bracket 1 is used to connect to the vibrating plate, and the other end is set to correspond to the groove 303 on the upper lifting device 3, thus serving to inlet and convey the hooks 100. The control robot modules 2 are arranged from top to bottom on one side of the inlet bracket 1, with their clamping ends set on the inlet bracket 1. Through the cooperation of sensors, the opening and closing of the clamping ends are controlled to realize the sequential conveying of the hooks 100. Through the cooperation of the control robot modules 2 and the inlet bracket 1, the hooks 100 can be conveyed one by one more smoothly. The material is conveyed to the groove 303 of the upper lifting device 3; the upper lifting device 3 is used to lift the hook 100 in the groove 303 upward so that the suction mechanism can pick up the hook 100; there is also a gap 300 between the bottom surface of the groove 303 and the guide bracket 1 with the thickness of the hook 100 to facilitate the movement of the upper lifting module 301 and limit the hook 100 below the guide bracket 1; the pushing device 4 is used to push the upper lifting device 3 to the next station, i.e. the suction mechanism; this technical solution avoids the technical defects of the flat push type and guide rail type feeding method, and provides an automatic feeding device for picture frame hooks 100 with smoother conveying and higher feeding efficiency, solving the technical problems of the existing picture frame hooks 100 feeding device being not smooth and having low feeding efficiency.

[0046] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the patent scope of the present utility model.
