[0034] Furthermore, a through-channel is provided inside the material box 1 for holding vertically placed sponge sheets. In this embodiment, the through-channel is circular, used to place the circular sponge pads side by side inside the material box. It can be adjusted to be elliptical, square, etc., according to actual needs.

[0035] Specifically, the feeding mechanism 2 is located at the end of the material box 1 and is used to continuously push and feed the sponge sheets inside the material box 1. The clamping mechanism 3 is located at the discharge port of the material box 1 and is used to grab the sponge sheets fed to the discharge port and place them onto the discharge mechanism 4 below, and to feed the sponge sheets in an orderly and continuous manner through the discharge mechanism 4.

[0036] This application arranges sponge sheets horizontally in a material box and uses a feeding mechanism to continuously feed the sponge sheets into the material box. The feeding mechanism, together with a clamping mechanism, transports the sponge sheets to the discharge mechanism for the next production process, replacing the spiral vibrating disc feeding method in the prior art. The horizontal and continuous feeding of the sponge sheets in this application effectively avoids jamming or accumulation, and greatly improves the stability of feeding.

[0037] In the embodiment, the feeding mechanism 2 comprises a synchronous belt movement module 21, a sliding block 22, a support sliding plate 23, a support 24, a lifting cylinder 7, a push block 25, the synchronous movement module is connected with the two sliding blocks 22 through a belt, and the sliding blocks 22 are slidably arranged on the support sliding plate 23, the top of each sliding block 22 is equipped with a support 24, the lifting cylinder 7 is arranged on the support 24, the piston end of the lifting cylinder 7 is connected with the push block 25, and the push block 25 extends into the groove 61 and is used for abutting against the rear sponge sheet.

[0038] Specifically, during feeding, the synchronous belt movement module 21 drives the belt to drive the two sliding blocks 22 to move on the support sliding plate 23, so as to drive the lifting cylinder 7 and the push block 25 to move synchronously, and then the push block 25 pushes the sponge sheet in the material box 1 to continuously feed to the discharge port.

[0039] In the embodiment, the feeding mechanism 2 comprises a synchronous belt movement module 21, a sliding block 22, a support sliding plate 23, a support 24, a lifting cylinder 7, a push block 25, the synchronous movement module is connected with the two sliding blocks 22 through a belt, and the sliding blocks 22 are slidably arranged on the support sliding plate 23, the top of each sliding block 22 is equipped with a support 24, the lifting cylinder 7 is arranged on the support 24, the piston end of the lifting cylinder 7 is connected with the push block 25, and the push block 25 extends into the groove 61 and is used for abutting against the rear sponge sheet.

[0040] Specifically, during feeding, the synchronous belt movement module 21 drives the belt to drive the two sliding blocks 22 to move on the support sliding plate 23, so as to drive the lifting cylinder 7 and the push block 25 to move synchronously, and then the push block 25 pushes the sponge sheet in the material box 1 to continuously feed to the discharge port.

[0041] In the embodiment, the number of the material boxes 1 is six, and the six material boxes 1 are sequentially arranged on the support plate 6 from front to back, and a groove 61 is arranged at the position of each support plate 6. The support plate 6 is equipped on the switching mechanism 8, the support plate 6 is moved through the switching mechanism 8, and the switched material box 1 is aligned with the material clamping mechanism 3.

[0042] In the embodiment, the switching mechanism 8 comprises a lead screw linear movement module 81 and a support sliding module 82, the support sliding module 82 is arranged at the bottom of the two ends of the support plate 6, and the movable end of the support sliding module is connected with the free end of the lead screw linear movement module 81.

[0043] Specifically, when the first sensor 34 detects that there is no sponge sheet in the current material box 1, the lead screw linear movement module 81 cooperates with the support sliding module to drive the support plate 6 to move forward, so that the two material boxes 1 at the rear are moved forward to be aligned with the pneumatic clamp 33, and the switching of the material box 1 is realized.

[0044] At the same time, the material box of the switching front end can continue to be manually filled. When the last two material boxes 1 are switched, the switching direction is switched, that is, the screw linear motion module 81 cooperates with the support sliding module to drive the support plate 6 to move backward, so that the two material boxes 1 filled in front move backward. At this time, the material boxes 1 behind can be filled. Without stopping, the efficiency of work is greatly improved.

[0045] It can be explained here that when the material box 1 is switched, the lifting cylinder 7 drives the push block 25 to move downward from the groove 61 and exit from the groove 61, so as to avoid the conflict between the push block 25 and the groove 61.

[0046] Further, the second sensor 35 is arranged above the discharging mechanism 4 for detecting whether there is a sponge sheet on the discharging mechanism 4. If there is no sponge sheet on the discharging mechanism 4, it means that there is no sponge sheet in the plurality of material boxes, and the material needs to be filled.

[0047] In the embodiment, the material clamping mechanism 3 further comprises a linear guide rail 36 and a guide block 37 sliding on the linear guide rail 36. The top of the fixed frame 32 is connected with the guide block 37 for assembling the fixed frame 32, so that the pneumatic clamp 33 operates more stably.

[0048] In the embodiment, the discharging mechanism 4 comprises a discharging disc 41 arranged below the material clamping mechanism 3, a linear vibration feeding device 42, a pressing plate 43 and a downward pressing cylinder 44. One end of the discharging disc 41 is connected with the discharging port of the material box 1. The linear vibration feeding device 42 is arranged at the bottom of the discharging disc 41. The pressing plate 43 is arranged at the top of the discharging disc 41 and is spaced apart from the discharging disc 41 by a thickness of a sponge sheet. The top of the pressing plate 43 is connected with the downward pressing cylinder 44 for adjusting the spacing between the pressing plate 43 and the discharging disc 41.

[0049] Specifically, the linear vibration feeding device 42 is used to send out the sponge sheet on the discharging disc 41. At the same time, only one sponge sheet is discharged under the cooperation of the spacing between the pressing plate 43 and the discharging disc 41, so as to avoid the accumulation of sponge sheets. The spacing between the pressing plate 43 and the discharging disc 41 can be adjusted by the downward pressing cylinder 44, so as to adjust according to the different thicknesses of the sponge sheets, thereby improving the practicability of the device.

[0050] In the embodiment, the rack 9 is further arranged for assembling the material box 1, the feeding mechanism 2 and the switching mechanism 8 inside the rack 9 to protect and improve the appearance of the equipment. The protective cover 12 is further arranged on the material clamping mechanism 3. The top end of the rack 9 is further provided with a top cover 10. The front and rear ends of the top cover 10 are hinged with a box door 11. The empty material box 1 at the front end can be filled by opening the front end of the box door 11. The empty material box 1 at the rear end can be filled by opening the rear end of the box door 11.

[0051] In the embodiment, the lower part of the top cover 10 is detachably provided with a limiting mechanism 5, which comprises a fixing member 52 assembled on the top cover 10, and a pressing rod 51 threadedly connected to the bottom of the fixing member 52, the pressing rod 51 being in contact with the sponge sheet in the lower part of the magazine 1, and limiting the top of the sponge sheet when the sponge sheet is fed, so as to prevent the sponge sheet from being directly pressed to be warped, and ensure the stability of the sponge sheet when the sponge sheet is fed.

[0052] The working principle of the utility model is as follows: after the six magazines are all filled with sponge sheets, the pneumatic equipment is started, first, the synchronous belt movement module 21 drives the two sliders 22 to move on the support slide plate 23, thereby driving the lifting 7 and the push block 25 to move synchronously, and further driving the push block 25 to continuously feed the sponge sheet in the magazine 1 to the discharge port;

[0053] Subsequently, the telescopic cylinder 31 drives the pneumatic clamp 33 on the fixing frame 32 to move to the discharge port, until the pneumatic clamp 33 can clamp the sponge sheet, at this time, the telescopic cylinder resets, and the pneumatic clamp falls to the discharge mechanism 4 below to release the sponge sheet.

[0054] Finally, the linear amplitude of the linear vibration feeding device 42 is used to send out the sponge sheet on the discharge disc 41.

[0055] When the first sensor 34 detects that there is no sponge sheet in the current magazine 1, at this time, the lifting cylinder 7 drives the push block 25 to move downward from the groove 61 and exit the groove 61, so as to avoid the conflict between the push block 25 and the groove 61, then the lead screw linear movement module 81 cooperates with the support sliding module to drive the support plate 6 to move forward, so that the two magazines 1 at the rear move forward to face the pneumatic clamp 33, the switching of the magazine 1 is realized, and the feeding can continue.

[0056] Meanwhile, the switching of the magazine 1 at the front end can continue to be manually filled, when the last two magazines 1 are switched, the switching direction is converted, that is, the lead screw linear movement module 81 cooperates with the support sliding module to drive the support plate 6 to move backward, so that the two magazines 1 at the front move backward, at this time, the rear magazine 1 is filled, without stopping, which greatly improves the work efficiency.
