[0028] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0029] This utility model provides, for example Figure 1 and 4 The illustrated material tray feeder mechanism includes a hopper mechanism 1, a material picking mechanism 2, and a material tray 3. The hopper mechanism 1 is located on top of the material picking mechanism 2, and the material tray 3 is located inside the hopper mechanism 1. Positioning posts 31 are provided at the four corners of the upper surface of the material tray 3, which allows the upper and lower material trays 3 to be stacked.

[0030] like Figure 1 As shown, the hopper mechanism 1 includes a hopper base 11, hopper enclosure plates 12, and hopper pad block assemblies 13. There are four hopper enclosure plates 12, which are located at the top four corners of the hopper base 11. There are four hopper pad block assemblies 13, which are distributed on both sides.

[0031] like Figures 1-2As shown, the taking mechanism 2 includes a taking base 20, a cylinder 21, a taking plate 22 and a tray supporting plate 23. The bin base 11 is fixedly arranged on one side of the top of the taking base 20, the cylinder 21 is fixedly arranged on the taking base 20, the taking plate 22 is fixedly arranged on the moving end of the cylinder 21, both sides of the top of the taking base 20 are provided with electric sliding rails 26, the tray supporting plate 23 is fixedly arranged on the two electric sliding rails 26, the upper surface of the tray supporting plate 23 is provided with a positioning pin 24 and a pair of photoelectric switches 25, the surface of the tray supporting plate 23 is provided with a square hole, the size of the square hole is greater than the size of the taking plate 22, the longitudinal size of the square hole of the tray supporting plate 23 is less than the longitudinal size of the tray 3, the lateral size of the taking plate 22 is greater than the lateral size of the tray 3, and both sides of the tray 3 are provided with positioning grooves matched with the positioning pin 24.

[0032] As shown in Figure 1 and 3 shown, the bin cushion block assembly 13 includes a fixed block 131 fixedly arranged on the top of the bin base 11, a supporting block 133 rotatably arranged on one side of the fixed block 131 through a rotating shaft 132, the bottom clamping groove of the tray 3 clamps the supporting block 133, and the periphery of the tray 3 is positioned by the bin surrounding plate 12. The top of the fixed block 131 is fixedly provided with a spring steel sheet 135 elastically abutting against the supporting block 133, one side of the taking plate 22 is clamped by the supporting block 133, and the top of the bin base 11 and below the supporting block 133 are fixedly provided with a horizontal cushion block 134. When the supporting block 133 is lifted by the taking plate 22, the rotating shaft 132 rotates, and the spring steel sheet 135 presses the supporting block 133 from above, so that the pushing force of the taking plate 22 does not cause the supporting block to rotate too much. When the taking plate 22 retreats, the supporting block 133 is reset to the horizontal position, and the spring steel sheet 135 also falls back to the original position.

[0033] When the tray 3 needs to be taken out, the tray supporting plate 23 moves to directly below the bin base 11, the cylinder 21 pushes the taking plate 22 to rise, the taking plate 22 passes through the square hole on the tray supporting plate 23, and the supporting block 133 is lifted up. At this time, the tray 3 in the bin is lifted onto the taking plate 22 and away from the supporting block 133, as shown in Figure 6 ;

[0034] After the cylinder 21 is extended to the position, it is slowly retracted, the taking plate 22 slowly descends while holding the tray 3, and the supporting block 133 returns to the horizontal position. Because the lateral size of the tray 3 is less than that of the taking plate 22, the supporting block 133 cannot contact the lowermost tray 3 when it falls back, the lowermost tray 3 can descend with the taking plate 22, and the remaining trays 3 are clamped by the reset supporting block 133, as shown in Figure 7 ;

[0035] The material taking plate 22 returns to the original position, while the tray 3 with the longitudinal dimension of the square hole of the tray tray 23 larger than that of the material taking plate 22 falls on the tray tray 23 and is clamped by the positioning pin 24 to fix the position, and the optical switch 25 on the tray tray 23 detects whether the tray 3 is in place, as shown in Figure 8

[0036] The above only describes certain exemplary embodiments of the present application by way of illustration, and it is needless to say that those skilled in the art can modify the described embodiments in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present application. Therefore, the above drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and should not be understood as limiting the scope of protection of the present application.​
