[0021] There are at least two feeding fixture plates 206, both of which are disposed on the second transfer mechanism 208. Both feeding fixture plates 206 are capable of moving along the length direction of the second transfer mechanism 208. The two feeding fixture plates 206 are configured to have a height difference or a horizontal position difference, so that the two feeding fixture plates 206 do not interfere with each other when they move relative to each other.

[0022] As a further improvement of the present invention, the first transfer mechanism 204 is provided with at least two first horizontal moving guide rails 210, and the two material picking fixture plates 202 are respectively mounted on one of the first horizontal moving guide rails 210 and can move along the length direction of the first horizontal moving guide rail 210. A height difference is provided between the two material picking fixture plates 202, so that one of the material picking fixture plates 202 can pass under the other material picking fixture plate 202.

[0023] As a further improvement of the present invention, the second transfer mechanism 208 is provided with at least two second horizontal moving guide rails 212, which are arranged in parallel and have a gap between them. The feeding fixture plate 206 can slide on one of the second horizontal moving guide rails 212 respectively, and the gap can ensure that the two feeding fixture plates 206 do not come into contact when they move horizontally.

[0024] As a further improvement of the present invention, both the first transfer mechanism 204 and the second transfer mechanism 208 are provided with lead screws and nuts that cooperate with the lead screws. The material pick-up fixture plate 202 and the material release fixture plate 206 are fixed on the nuts, and each lead screw is driven to rotate by a motor.

[0025] As a further improvement of the present invention, a position sensor 214 is provided on one side of the first transfer mechanism 204 and / or the second transfer mechanism 208 and is fixed in position and electrically connected thereto. A moving block 216 is provided on the material picking fixture plate 202 and / or the material discharging fixture plate 206. The motor is controlled to stop moving by the cooperation of the moving block 216 and the position sensor 214.

[0026] As a further improvement of the present invention, the position sensor 214 is provided with a light receiver and a light emitter that emits linear light to the light receiver. When the moving block 216 passes through and stops in the gap between the light receiver and the light emitter, the position sensor 214 controls the motor electrically connected to it to stop moving.

[0027] In this invention, a first transfer mechanism 204 and a second transfer mechanism 208 are provided, wherein:

[0028] The first transfer mechanism 204 is provided with two first horizontal moving guide rails 210. Two material picking fixture plates 202 are respectively mounted on one of the first horizontal moving guide rails 210 and can move along the length direction of the first horizontal moving guide rail 210. A height difference is provided between the two material picking fixture plates 202, so that one material picking fixture plate 202 can pass under the other material picking fixture plate 202. In addition, the first transfer mechanism 204 is also provided with a position sensor 214 and a moving block 216. The position sensor 214 includes a light receiver fixed on the first horizontal moving guide rail 210 and a light emitter that emits linear light to the light receiver. A gap is provided between the light receiver and the light emitter. The moving block 216 is provided on the material picking fixture plate 202. When the moving block 216 of the material picking fixture plate 202 moves to the position of the light receiver and the light emitter, the moving block 216 moves to the position of the light receiver and the light emitter. When there is a gap between the light emitters, the position sensor 214 controls the material handling fixture plate 202 to stop moving. The stopping position is generally set as the loading (unloading) station and the material handling station of the material handling fixture plate 202. At the loading (unloading) station, the robot arm places the carrier plate fully loaded with workpieces (lens barrel or lens frame) onto the material handling fixture plate 202, or removes the empty carrier plate from the material handling fixture plate 202. At the material handling station, the robot arm removes the workpieces (lens barrel or lens frame) from the carrier plate in sequence. In this embodiment, the two material handling fixture plates 202 move horizontally on the same first horizontal moving guide rail 210. The height difference is set to ensure that the two do not interfere with each other when they move relative to each other. In this embodiment, the first horizontal moving guide rail 210 adopts the transmission method of lead screw and lead nut. The lead screw is driven by a motor to rotate.

[0029] The second transfer mechanism 208 is provided with two second horizontal moving guide rails 212, which are arranged in parallel with a gap between them. The two feeding fixture plates 206 can slide on one of the second horizontal moving guide rails 212 respectively. This gap ensures that the two second transfer mechanisms 208 do not contact each other during horizontal movement. Additionally, a position sensor 214 and a moving block 216 are also provided on the second transfer mechanism 208. The position sensor 214 includes a light receiver fixed on the second horizontal moving guide rail 212 and a light emitter that emits linear light to the light receiver. A gap is provided between the light receiver and the light emitter. The feeding fixture plate 206 is also provided with a moving block 216. When the moving block 216 of the feeding fixture plate 206 moves into the gap between the light receiver and the light emitter, the position sensor 214 controls the feeding fixture plate 206 to stop moving. This stopping position is generally... The loading (unloading) station and the unloading station are set up for the unloading fixture plate 206. At the unloading station, the robot arm places the workpiece (lens barrel or frame) from the carrier plate on the picking fixture plate 202 onto the carrier plate on the unloading fixture plate 206. At the loading (unloading) station, the robot arm places the carrier plate fully loaded with workpieces (lens barrel or frame) onto the unloading fixture plate 206, or removes the empty carrier plate from the unloading fixture plate 206. In this embodiment, the second horizontal moving guide rail 212 adopts a lead screw and lead nut transmission method, and the lead screw is driven to rotate by a motor.
