[0009] The first limiting baffle is arranged opposite to the limiting push plate and is located on the other side of the material feeding mechanism's discharge port. The first limiting baffle and the limiting push plate together form a limiting arrangement groove. The material feeding mechanism can transport materials into the limiting arrangement groove so that the materials are arranged in a row.
[0010] The push plate drive mechanism is located on the working platform and is used to drive the limit push plate to move closer to the first limit baffle.

The first limiting baffle and the limiting push plate together form a limiting arrangement groove. In use, the material feeding mechanism automatically conveys the materials to the working platform, and the materials are conveyed into the limiting arrangement groove and arranged in a row by the first limiting baffle and the limiting push plate. Then, the push plate driving mechanism drives the limiting push plate to move closer to the first limiting baffle to push the row of materials to one side. During this process, the baffle driving mechanism drives the first limiting baffle to lift, so that the next row of materials is pushed to be parallel with the previous row of materials. In this way, the materials are automatically arranged into a rectangular array, replacing manual arrangement, saving time and labor, and improving production efficiency. [Attached Image Description]

[0035] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.
[0036] Specific embodiments, such as Figure 1-4 An automated material sorting device is shown, comprising: a material feeding mechanism 1 for conveying materials; a working platform 2 for receiving materials conveyed by the material feeding mechanism 1; a limiting push plate 3 disposed on one side of the discharge port of the material feeding mechanism 1; a first limiting baffle 4 disposed opposite to the limiting push plate 3 and located on the other side of the discharge port of the material feeding mechanism 1, the first limiting baffle 4 and the limiting push plate 3 together forming a limiting arrangement groove 5, the material feeding mechanism 1 being able to convey materials into the limiting arrangement groove 5 so that the materials are arranged in a row; a push plate driving mechanism 6 disposed on the working platform 2 for driving the limiting push plate 3 to move closer to the first limiting baffle 4; and a baffle driving mechanism 7 disposed at the driving end of the push plate driving mechanism 6 for driving the first limiting baffle 4 to move up and down. In use, the material feeding mechanism automatically transports the material to the working platform. The material is then transported to the limiting arrangement slot and arranged in a row by the first limiting baffle and the limiting push plate. The push plate driving mechanism then drives the limiting push plate to move closer to the first limiting baffle, pushing the row of materials to one side. During this process, the baffle driving mechanism drives the first limiting baffle to lift, pushing the next row of materials to be parallel with the previous row. This process automatically arranges the materials into a rectangular array, replacing manual arrangement, saving time and effort, and improving production efficiency.
[0037] Specifically, the limiting push plate 3 includes a material guiding push plate part 31 and a material blocking part 32 disposed at the end of the material guiding push plate part 31 away from the material feeding mechanism 1 discharge port. The material guiding push plate part 31 and the material blocking part 32 are perpendicular to each other.
[0038] In addition, the working platform 2 is equipped with a positioning detection mechanism 8, which includes a detection mounting frame 81 on the working platform 2 and a detection head 82 on the detection mounting frame 81. When the material is conveyed in the limiting arrangement groove 5 to abut against the material stop 32, the detection head 82 detects the material and drives the push plate drive mechanism 6 to drive the limiting push plate 3 to move and push the material in rows. In this way, the materials in each row are automatically arranged into a rectangular array. The degree of automation is higher.
[0039] Furthermore, the pusher drive mechanism 6 includes a first telescopic cylinder 61 mounted on the working platform 2, the telescopic end of which is connected to the limiting pusher plate 3. The first telescopic cylinder 61 drives the limiting pusher plate 3 to move horizontally and push the rows of materials.
[0040] More specifically, the baffle driving mechanism 7 includes a driving mounting component 71 connected to the telescopic end of the first telescopic cylinder 61, and a second telescopic cylinder 72 vertically mounted on the driving mounting component 71. The telescopic end of the second telescopic cylinder 72 is connected to the first limiting baffle 4. The first limiting baffle 4 and the limiting push plate 3 limit the row of materials. When the row of materials is arranged side by side, the second telescopic cylinder 72 drives the first limiting baffle 4 to rise and fall.
[0041] Furthermore, the working platform 2 is provided with a positioning slot 9 and a material carrier plate 10 for receiving materials conveyed by the material feeding mechanism 1. The material carrier plate 10 can be embedded in the positioning slot 9 or disengaged from the positioning slot 9 in the horizontal direction. After the materials are arranged, the material carrier plate 10 can be directly removed, making it more convenient to use.
[0042] Furthermore, the automated material arranging equipment also includes a first baffle plate 13, a second baffle plate 14, and a third baffle plate 15 disposed on the material carrier plate 10. One end of the first baffle plate 13 is perpendicular to one end of the second baffle plate 14, and one end of the third baffle plate 15 is perpendicular to the other end of the second baffle plate 14 and parallel to the first baffle plate 13, so that the first baffle plate 13, the second baffle plate 14, and the third baffle plate 15 form a rectangular discharge trough 16. The push plate driving mechanism 6 can push the materials arranged in rows in the limiting arrangement groove 5 into the rectangular discharge trough 16 to automatically arrange the materials into a rectangular array.
[0043] Specifically, to facilitate the placement and removal of the carrier plate 10, both ends of the carrier plate 10 extend beyond the positioning slots 9. More specifically, the carrier plate 10 is fan-shaped, and four carrier plates 10 can be spliced together to form a circle to match the circular magnetic table of the disc grinder.
[0044] More specifically, the working platform 2 includes: a lower mounting base 21 with multiple lower mounting holes 211; an upper mounting base 22 with multiple upper mounting holes 221 corresponding to the lower mounting holes 211; an adjusting screw 23, one end of which passes through the lower mounting hole 211 and the other end of which passes through the upper mounting hole 221; a lower locking nut 24, which is sleeved on the adjusting screw 23 for locking the lower mounting base 21 and the adjusting screw 23; and an upper locking nut 25, which is sleeved on the adjusting screw 23 for locking the upper mounting base 22 and the adjusting screw 23. Depending on the application, the height of the upper mounting base 22 relative to the lower mounting base 21 can be adjusted by using the adjusting screw 23 and the locking nut, thus enhancing its versatility.
[0045] In addition, the material feeding mechanism 1 includes a vibrating feeding plate 11 and a straight vibrating guide rail 12 connected to the discharge port of the vibrating feeding plate 11. The discharge port of the straight vibrating guide rail 12 is opposite to the limiting arrangement groove 5.

Furthermore, due to different industry naming conventions, it is not limited to the above names or English names.
