[0033] Specifically, the flushing hole product 3 has a circular structure with columnar protrusions at both ends. The transmission step 23 supports and guides both ends of the product 3. The subsequent products 3 push the previous product 3 one by one, so that the products 3 move one by one to the discharge end of the conveying track 2, which can guide and transmit the products 3.

[0034] In one embodiment of this utility model, the conveying mechanism 4 includes a conveying frame 41, which is disposed on one side of the vibratory feeder 11. A linear module 42 is disposed on the conveying frame 41, which is driven to be connected to the lifting frame. A moving module 43 is disposed on the lifting frame, which is driven to be connected to the conveying gripper 5. The moving module 43 is perpendicular to the transmission direction of the linear module 42.

[0035] Specifically, the moving module 43 and the linear module 42 are arranged perpendicularly to form a two-axis motion module, which drives the handling gripper 5 to move in space, so that the handling gripper 5 moves to the discharge end of the conveying track 2, which can quickly handle the product 3, with stable operation and high handling efficiency.

[0036] In one embodiment of the present invention, the conveying mechanism 4 further includes a conveying frame 41, which is drivenly connected to the moving module 43.

When gripping the product 3, the spring 56 presses against the product 3 under the reaction force, ensuring the accuracy of gripping the product 3.

[0046] Usage process

[0047] The ostomy bag flushing hole product 3 is placed in the vibratory feeder 11. The vibratory feeder 11 vibrates and transmits the flushing holes one by one to the conveying track 2. The flushing hole product 3 has a circular structure with columnar protrusions at both ends. The conveying steps 23 support and guide the two ends of the product 3. The subsequent products 3 push the previous products 3 one by one, so that the products 3 move to the discharge end of the conveying track 2 one by one. After the detection sensor 12 on the detection frame 14 detects the position of the product 3, the moving module 43 is set perpendicular to the transmission direction of the linear module 42 to form a two-axis motion module, which drives the handling gripper 5 to move in space. This causes the handling gripper 5 to move to the discharge end of the conveying track 2. Since the piston rod end of the lifting cylinder 44 is driven to connect with the handling gripper 5, the lifting cylinder 44 drives the handling gripper 5 to extend for the second time. After the vacuum nozzle 53 on the suction rod sucks up the product 3, the two-axis motion module then drives the product 3 to move onto the conveying turntable and place the product 3 in the positioning groove 63. The product 3 is supported by the support platforms 64 on both sides of the positioning groove 63. The suction holes 65 on the support platforms 64 generate negative pressure to suck up the product 3, thereby completing the automatic feeding of the ostomy bag rinsing hole component.
