The material sorting mechanism 2 includes a first material space 205, a second material space 209, a material transfer component 201 and a first conveyor belt 6. The material transfer component 201 pushes the unqualified material from the first material space 205 to transfer it to the second material space 209 for discharge. The first conveyor belt 6 outputs the qualified material from the first material space 205 to transfer it to the material discharging mechanism 4 for material receiving.

[0028] A support platform 1 is provided below the first material space 205. The first material space 205 and the second material space 209 are arranged side by side, and the second material space 209 is located outside the first material space 205. The second material space 209 has an open opening below it to form a discharge channel 102.

[0030] The material distribution mechanism 2 includes an outer frame 203, inside which a baffle 2033 is fixed. A discharge gap 202 is left between the baffle 2033 and the first conveyor belt 6. The discharge gap 202 is connected to the second material space 209 and the discharge channel 102. A sloped discharge plate 101 is fixed at the bottom of the support platform 1. Unqualified materials pass through the second material space 209, the discharge gap 202 and the discharge channel 102 in sequence and reach the discharge plate 101, and slide out of the support platform 1. An installation plate 2031 is fixed at the top of the outer frame 203. A strip-shaped through hole 2032 is opened in the installation plate 2031.

[0031] The material transfer assembly 201 includes a moving plate 2012. An electric cylinder I 2011 is fixed to the top of the mounting plate 2031. A fixing member 2013 is fixed to the end of the electric cylinder shaft of the electric cylinder I 2011. The bottom surface of the fixing member 2013 passes through a strip-shaped through hole 2032 in the mounting plate 2031 and is fixed to the moving plate 2012. The electric cylinder I 2011 drives the electric cylinder shaft to move the moving plate 2012. A housing stop block I 2051 is provided in the first material space 205. The housing stop block I 2051 is fixed... At the bottom of the moving plate 2012, there are two shell block blocks II 2052 on both sides of the shell block I 2051 that can be slidably assembled with the moving plate 2012. Both shell block blocks II 2052 are connected to a cylinder.

[0033] The discharge mechanism 4 includes a support plate 401 and two sets of spiral assemblies 402 rotatably mounted on the support plate 401. The spiral assemblies 402 are simultaneously located above and below the support plate 401, and at least one set of spiral assemblies 402 located above and below is adjustable in the vertical direction. The lower spiral assembly 402 is used to support the product, and the upper spiral assembly 402 is used to move qualified materials.

[0034] The two sets of spiral assemblies 402 are respectively provided with an adjustment plate 4021 and a fixing plate 4023 on the rear side. A baffle 403 is provided on one side of the spiral assembly 402. The baffle 403 is made of soft material and buffers the shell conveyed by the conveyor line 3 to prevent the product from falling.

[0035] The spiral assembly 402 includes multiple equally spaced spiral elements 4022. The spiral gap of each spiral element 4022 is larger than the width of the product. Qualified material sequentially enters the spiral gap of each spiral element 4022 and is displaced and discharged along a direction perpendicular to the rotation axis of the spiral element 4022 as the spiral element 4022 rotates. The fixing plate 4023 is bolted to the support plate 401. A sliding block III 405 is fixed to the rear side of the support plate 401. The adjustment... A vertical slide rail Ⅲ406 is fixed at the position corresponding to the sliding block Ⅲ405 on the plate 4021. An electric cylinder Ⅱ404 is provided on the top of the support plate 401. The cylinder shaft of the electric cylinder Ⅱ404 is fixed to the adjusting plate 4021. The electric cylinder Ⅱ404 drives the sliding block Ⅲ405 of the adjusting plate 4021 to move up and down along the slide rail Ⅲ406, which can adapt to products of different heights. A servo motor 4024 for driving the spiral component 4022 to rotate is provided behind both the fixed plate 4023 and the adjusting plate 4021.

[0036] The discharge mechanism 4 is provided with a collection mechanism 5 on its outer side. The collection mechanism 5 receives qualified materials output by the spiral assembly 402. The collection mechanism 5 includes a second conveyor belt 501.

[0037] The material distribution mechanism 2 is equipped with a through-beam sensor 7 at its front end, and the material discharge mechanism 4 is equipped with a position sensor 8 at its front end. The position sensor 8 is used to detect whether a housing has passed through. The through-beam sensor 7 is used to receive the detection signal sent by the previous station equipment.

[0038] The positioning sensor 8 is an infrared sensor, and both the through-beam sensor 7 and the positioning sensor 8 are controlled by a PLC controller.

[0039] The working principle of the automatic material receiving device provided by this utility model is as follows:

[0040] In use, the electric cylinder II 404 drives the adjusting plate 4021 to move up and down, adjusting the distance between the upper and lower spiral components 402 to match the product height. The cylinder drives the housing block II 2052 to move along the length of the slide rail II 206, adjusting the distance between the housing block I 2051 and the two housing blocks II 2052 to match the product thickness. The two first material spaces 205 feed materials alternately, and the housing block II 2052 of the first material space 205 restricts the left and right swaying of the product, improving the stability of the product during movement.

[0041] After the previous station equipment sends a signal indicating that a qualified product has been detected, the through-beam sensor 7 receives the signal and transmits it to the PLC controller. The PLC controller controls the product to pass through normally. Qualified materials on the left and right sides of the housing block I 2051 are sequentially conveyed through the first conveyor belt 6 and the third conveyor belt 302 of the conveyor line 3. The guide devices 301 on the front and rear sides of the third conveyor belt 302 increase the stability of the conveyor line 3 when conveying products. The third conveyor belt 302 forms an acute angle with the horizontal plane, which facilitates the product entering the discharge mechanism 4. After the position sensor 8 at the front end of the discharge mechanism 4 detects the product, it transmits the signal to the PLC controller. The PLC controller controls the servo motor 4024 to drive the spiral component 4022 to rotate, causing the housing to move forward and sending the housing forward. Multiple spiral components 4022 are arranged to achieve compatibility in the length direction of the housing and prevent housings of different lengths from falling abnormally onto the equipment. The baffle 403 buffers the housing coming from the conveyor line 3 and prevents the housing from falling. After the spiral component 402 moves the product to the collection mechanism 5, the second conveyor belt 501 of the collection mechanism 5 conveys the product and automatically collects the product.

[0042] After the previous station of this equipment sends a signal indicating that a defective product has been detected, the through-beam sensor 7 receives the signal and transmits it to the PLC controller. The PLC controller controls the electric cylinder I 2011 to drive the moving plate 2012 to move left and right. If the defective product is fed from the left side of the housing stop I 2051, the electric cylinder I 2011 drives the moving plate 2012 to move to the left, and the defective product falls through the second material space 209 on the left and slides out of the equipment onto the discharge plate 101 of the support. If the defective product is fed from the right side of the housing stop I 2051, the electric cylinder I 2011 drives the moving plate 2012 to move to the right, and the defective product falls through the second material space 209 on the right and slides out of the equipment onto the discharge plate 101 of the support.

[0043] This utility model is not limited to the above-described preferred embodiments. Anyone can derive other forms of products under the guidance of this utility model. However, regardless of any changes made in their shape or structure, any technical solution that is the same as or similar to this application falls within the protection scope of this utility model.
