Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of circuit board processing technology, and in particular relates to a drive component, a feeding mechanism and a board feeding and receiving device. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of sheet material distribution, in order to ensure the orderly flow of sheet materials from storage to processing, drive components are usually used to drive the conveying components on the material bins to carry out sheet material distribution operations, thereby meeting the continuity requirements of the production process.

[0003] In existing technologies, the drive assembly and the conveying assembly are typically kept in close contact at all times. During long-term use, due to the mutual influence between components, minor mechanical wear or errors can easily accumulate, affecting the stability of the connection between the drive assembly and the conveying assembly. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is: in the prior art, minor mechanical wear or errors can easily accumulate during long-term use, affecting the stability of the connection between the drive component and the conveying component. This utility model provides a drive component, a feeding mechanism, and a sheet material receiving and discharging device.

[0005] To address the aforementioned problems, one embodiment of this utility model provides a driving component, including a toggle member, an electromagnetic driving member, and a rotary driving member. The toggle member is connected to the output end of the electromagnetic driving member, the electromagnetic driving member can drive the toggle member to reciprocate along a first direction, and the rotary driving member can drive the toggle member to rotate.

[0006] Optionally, the electromagnetic drive and the actuating element are indirectly connected through a connecting structure, and the output shaft of the rotary drive is directly connected to the actuating element.

[0007] Optionally, the connection structure includes a sliding connector and a support base. The support base is provided with a slide rail extending along the first direction. The sliding connector is slidably connected to the slide rail. The sliding connector is connected to the output end of the electromagnetic drive component. The rotary drive component and the actuating component are both disposed on the sliding connector.

[0008] Optionally, the electromagnetic drive component is an electromagnet, which includes a housing, a push rod, and a reset component. The actuating component is connected to one end of the push rod, and the reset component is connected to the other end of the push rod.

[0009] When the electromagnet is energized, the push rod can drive the actuating member to move to a first position where it engages with the external receiving member;

[0010] The reset component is used to move the toggle component to a second position separated from the receiver component when the electromagnet is de-energized.

[0011] Optionally, the push rod extends through the housing;

[0012] The elastic element can be compressed when the electromagnet is energized, so that the push rod can drive the actuating element to move to the first position; the reset element can return to its initial position when the electromagnet is de-energized, so that it can drive the actuating element to move to the second position.

[0013] According to the drive assembly of this utility model embodiment, during sheet metal feeding operations, the electromagnetic drive component of the drive assembly is activated, and its output end drives the actuating component to reciprocate along a first direction. When the actuating component moves to a suitable position, it can connect with the receiving component on the conveying assembly. After the connection is completed, the rotary drive component starts working, driving the actuating component to rotate, enabling the conveying assembly to work normally and realize the sheet metal feeding operation. After the sheet metal feeding operation is completed, when the actuating component and the receiving component need to be separated, the electromagnetic drive component drives the actuating component to move in the opposite direction along the first direction, causing it to disengage from the receiving component. Since the drive assembly is an independent module, the actuating component of the drive assembly and the receiving component on the conveying assembly can be detached and connected. Compared with the prior art where the drive assembly and the conveying assembly are always tightly connected, this avoids the continuous accumulation of minor mechanical wear or errors caused by the inseparability of components during long-term use, reduces the risk of component damage due to wear or errors, and thus effectively extends the service life of the drive assembly, the conveying assembly, and other related components. Meanwhile, when maintenance, repair or adjustment of the drive components is required, the electromagnetic drive can be used to separate the actuating component from the receiving component, eliminating the need for large-scale disassembly of the entire conveying system. This simple and quick operation greatly reduces maintenance difficulty and cost, improves work efficiency, and reduces the impact of maintenance operations on production schedule.

[0014] This utility model provides a material feeding mechanism, including a receiving component and the aforementioned driving component. The electromagnetic driving component can drive the actuating component to move to a first position where it engages with the receiving component, or to a second position where it separates from the receiving component. When the actuating component is engaged with the receiving component, the rotary driving component can drive the actuating component to rotate.

[0015] Optionally, the receiving component includes a rotating base and a plurality of lever shafts spaced apart from the rotating base. When the actuating member is in the first position, it can engage between two adjacent lever shafts, and the rotation driving member can drive the receiving component to rotate through the actuating member.

[0016] According to the material feeding mechanism of this utility model embodiment, during the sheet material feeding operation, the electromagnetic drive is activated, driving the actuating component to move along a first direction to a first position where it engages with the receiving component, thus forming a single unit between the actuating component and the receiving component. While the actuating component and the receiving component are engaged, the rotary drive begins operation, driving the actuating component to rotate. Because the actuating component and the receiving component are tightly engaged, the rotational force is transmitted to the receiving component, thereby driving the conveying assembly to work and completing the sheet material feeding operation. When the conveying task is completed or other operations are required, the electromagnetic drive is activated again, driving the actuating component to move in the opposite direction along the first direction to a second position where it is separated from the receiving component, causing the conveying assembly to stop working or allowing other related operations to be performed. Compared to the traditional method where the drive assembly and conveying assembly are always tightly connected, this application reduces the risk of failure caused by long-term friction, wear, or error accumulation, effectively reducing the probability of equipment repair and maintenance costs.

[0017] This utility model provides a sheet metal receiving and discharging device, including a material box and the aforementioned material feeding mechanism. The material box is used to store sheet metal, and a conveying component is provided on the material box for conveying the sheet metal thereon. The receiving component is drivenly connected to the conveying component.

[0018] Optionally, the conveying assembly includes a rotating shaft, a driving wheel, a driven wheel, and a transmission bar. The rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the material box, the driving wheel is sleeved on the rotating shaft, the driven wheel is rotatably disposed on the material box, the driving wheel and the driven wheel are located on opposite sides of the material box along the conveying direction of the sheet material on the conveying assembly, and the transmission bar is wound around the driving wheel and the driven wheel.

[0019] The receiving element is connected to the rotating shaft, and the actuating element can drive the rotating shaft to rotate through the receiving element, so that the transmission bar can transport the sheet material thereon; wherein the transport direction of the sheet material intersects with the first direction.

[0020] Optionally, the sheet metal handling device further includes a lifting assembly, a material box bracket, and a movable main body. The driving assembly and the lifting assembly are respectively disposed on the main body. The material box bracket is connected to the lifting assembly. The material box bracket is used to carry the material box. The lifting assembly is used to drive the material box bracket to reciprocate in a second direction. The first direction and the second direction intersect.

[0021] Optionally, the hopper is provided with multiple storage compartments in the second direction, each storage compartment is provided with a conveying component, and each conveying component is drivenly connected to a receiving component.

[0022] According to the sheet metal receiving and discharging device of this utility model embodiment, when the production process requires sheet metal, the electromagnetic drive component of the drive assembly is energized, generating electromagnetic force to drive the actuating component to move, temporarily fixing it to the receiving component (which is connected to the material box conveying assembly). The power of the drive assembly is transmitted to the receiving component through the actuating component, thereby driving the conveying assembly of the material box to operate, thus enabling the conveying assembly to transport the sheet metal on it from the outside of the material box to the inside of the material box, or from the inside of the material box to the outside of the material box. The conveying assembly operates continuously under the drive of the drive assembly, ensuring that the sheet metal is transported at a set speed and path, meeting the continuity requirements of the production process. During the delivery process, the drive assembly and the conveying assembly maintain power transmission through a temporary connection, without the need for long-term close contact, achieving effective transmission only during working hours. When the processing stage is paused or the sheet metal conveying is completed, the electromagnetic drive component is de-energized, the electromagnetic force disappears, and the actuating component disengages from the receiving component under the action of the reset mechanism. The conveying assembly of the material box stops operating, the sheet metal stops moving, the drive assembly separates from the material box, and enters a standby state, awaiting the next stage instruction. The drive assembly and the hopper conveying assembly are completely disconnected when not in operation, avoiding the problem of "continuous connection causing the hopper to be passively stressed" in traditional solutions, and ensuring the positional accuracy and structural stability of the sheet metal during storage.

[0036] To make the technical problems solved, technical solutions, and beneficial effects of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0037] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "longitudinal," "radial," "length," "width," "thickness," "upper," "lower," "front," "rear," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "top," "bottom," "inner," and "outer," etc., indicating the orientation or positional relationship, are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings and are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model. In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise stated, "a plurality of" means two or more.

[0038] 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.

[0039] like Figures 1 to 9 As shown, one embodiment of this utility model provides a driving assembly 10, including a toggle member 11, an electromagnetic drive member 12, and a rotary drive member 13. The toggle member 11 is connected to the output end of the electromagnetic drive member 12. The electromagnetic drive member 12 can drive the toggle member 11 to reciprocate along a first direction, and the rotary drive member 13 can drive the toggle member 11 to rotate. In this embodiment, the toggle member 11 can be driven to connect with the receiving member 2 on the conveying assembly 30, thereby driving the conveying assembly 30 to convey the sheet metal 70 thereon. The first direction is... Figure 1 and attached Figure 4 In the Y direction. One possible implementation is that the electromagnetic drive 12 can drive the toggle member 11 and the rotary drive 13 to move synchronously. When the electromagnetic drive 12 is energized, it can drive the rotary drive 13 and the toggle member 11 to move along the first direction toward the receiver 2, so that the toggle member 11 is temporarily fixed to the receiver 2.

[0040] When the electromagnetic drive component 12 is de-energized, it can drive the rotary drive component 13 and the actuating component 11 to move away from the receiving component 2, thereby disengaging the actuating component 11 from the receiving component 2. The drive assembly 10 (actuating component 11) and the receiving component 2 are only temporarily connected for transmission when energized, and are completely disengaged when de-energized, avoiding the continuous frictional losses caused by the traditional "always tightly connected" connection. In the separated state, there is no interaction force between the actuating component 11 and the receiving component 2, and minor mechanical errors (such as assembly tolerances and thermal deformation) cannot be accumulated through contact transmission, maintaining connection accuracy even after long-term use. In addition, by controlling the energization and de-energization of the electromagnetic drive component 12, different production rhythms (such as intermittent and continuous delivery) can be flexibly matched, making it suitable for flexible production scenarios with multiple varieties and small batches, enhancing the compatibility of the production line. It is understood that this example does not limit the specific structure of the electromagnetic drive component 12, the rotary drive component 13, and the actuating component 11, as long as they can drive the actuating component 11 to be temporarily fixed to the receiving component 2 when energized, and drive the actuating component 11 to disengage from the receiving component 2 when de-energized. For example, the electromagnetic drive component 12 can be an electromagnet with a spring. When energized, the electromagnet's coil drives the iron core (push rod 121) to move linearly, pushing the actuating component 11 (such as a rack or fork) to engage with the receiving component 2 (such as a gear or slot). When de-energized, the spring resets, causing the push rod 121 to retract and disengage the actuating component 11. The electromagnetic drive component 12 can also be a structure such as an electromagnetic directional valve. When the electromagnetic drive component 12 is an electromagnetic directional valve, after the electromagnetic directional valve is energized, it switches the oil circuit or the air circuit, driving the piston rod of the hydraulic cylinder or air cylinder to move and connecting the actuating component 11 with the receiving component 2. When de-energized, the directional valve resets, and the piston rod retracts to achieve separation.

[0041] In one embodiment, the electromagnetic drive 12 and the actuating component 11 are indirectly connected through a connecting structure (not shown in the figure), and the output shaft of the rotary drive 13 is directly connected to the actuating component 11. In this embodiment, the rotary drive 13 is mounted on the connecting structure, and the electromagnetic drive 12 can drive the actuating component 11 and the rotary drive 13 to move synchronously. The connecting structure can buffer and adjust the force transmission between the actuating component 11 and the electromagnetic drive 12 to a certain extent, ensuring that the output force of the electromagnetic drive 12 can act stably on the actuating component 11, making the movement of the actuating component 11 smoother and more accurate, thereby improving the operational reliability of the entire sheet metal 70 take-up and untake-down device. At the same time, the indirect connection between the electromagnetic drive 12 and the actuating component 11 through the connecting structure makes the selection of the electromagnetic drive 12 more flexible, allowing for easy replacement of electromagnetic drive 12 of different models, specifications, or brands. Connection with the actuating component 11 can be achieved simply by adjusting the corresponding connecting structure, improving the versatility and interchangeability of the sheet metal 70 take-up and untake-down device, and facilitating equipment upgrades, modifications, and maintenance. In addition, the output shaft of the rotary drive 13 is directly connected to the actuating component 11, which reduces intermediate transmission links and avoids the impact of cumulative errors in transmission components on rotational accuracy. This enables more precise rotational control, improves the accuracy and consistency of sheet material 70 conveying, and meets the requirements of high-precision production.

[0042] In one embodiment, the connection structure includes a sliding connector 5 and a support base 3. A slide rail 4 extending along a first direction is provided on the support base 3. The sliding connector 5 is slidably connected to the slide rail 4 and is connected to the output end of the electromagnetic drive 12. The rotary drive 13 and the actuating member 11 are both disposed on the sliding connector 5. In this embodiment, the slide rail 4 provides a guide path for the linear motion of the sliding connector 5, ensuring that the sliding connector 5 drives the actuating member 11 to move smoothly and accurately along the first direction. This avoids inaccurate engagement or disengagement of the actuating member 11 and the receiving member 2 due to shaking or deviation during movement, thereby improving the working stability and reliability of the sheet metal 70 take-up and take-down device.

[0043] In one embodiment, the support base 3 includes a support plate 31 and a slide rail fixing plate 32. The support plate 31 is adapted to be fixed on an external device. The sliding connector 5 includes a motor fixing plate 51 and a sliding connecting plate 52. The slide rail fixing plate 32 is fixed on the support plate 31, and the electromagnetic drive 12 is mounted on the slide rail fixing plate 32 via a connecting seat 124. The rotary drive 13 is a rotary motor, which is mounted on the motor fixing plate 51. The motor fixing plate 51 is connected to the sliding connecting plate 52. The output end of the electromagnetic drive 12 is connected to the sliding connecting plate 52. The sliding connecting plate 52 is slidably connected to the slide rail 4. A bearing seat 6 is provided on the sliding connecting plate 52, and the actuating member 11 is rotatably mounted in the bearing seat 6. The output shaft of the rotary drive 13 is connected to the actuating member 11 via a coupling. When the electromagnetic drive 12 is energized, it drives the sliding connecting plate 52, the rotary drive 13, the bearing seat 6, and the actuating member 11 to move synchronously, so that the actuating member 11 is connected to the receiving member 2. When the electromagnetic drive component 12 is de-energized, the elastic component drives the sliding connecting plate 52, the rotary drive component 13, the bearing seat 6 and the actuating component 11 to move synchronously, causing the actuating component 11 to disengage from the receiving component 2.

[0044] In one embodiment, the electromagnetic drive 12 is an electromagnet, which includes a housing 123, a push rod 121 and a reset member 122. The actuating member 11 is connected to one end of the push rod 121, and the reset member 122 is connected to the other end of the push rod 121.

[0045] When the electromagnet is energized, the push rod 121 can drive the actuating member 11 to move to the first position where it engages with the external receiving member 2;

[0046] The reset component 122 is used to move the actuating component 11 to a second position separated from the receiving component when the electromagnet is de-energized. In this embodiment, the first position refers to the position when the actuating component 11 is connected (engaged) with the receiving component 2, and the second position refers to the position when the actuating component 11 is separated from the receiving component 2. The electromagnet also includes a coil (not shown in the figure), which is disposed within the housing 123. The push rod 121 is disposed within the coil. The drive assembly 10 (actuating component 11) is only temporarily connected to the receiving component 2 when energized and automatically disengages when de-energized, avoiding the continuous frictional loss caused by the traditional "always tightly connected" connection, significantly reducing the accumulation of mechanical wear, and extending the equipment life. In the non-connected state, the positional error between components can be naturally released, avoiding the accumulation of errors caused by long-term rigid connection, thereby improving the stability of the connection between the drive assembly 10 and the conveying assembly 30 (material box 20) and ensuring delivery accuracy. It is understood that this embodiment does not limit the specific position of the reset component 122. For example, one end of the push rod 121 connected to the actuating element 11 is located outside the housing 123, and the end of the push rod 121 away from the actuating element 11 is located inside the housing 123. The reset element 122 can be located inside the housing 123 and connected between the housing 123 and the push rod 121. Alternatively, the push rod 121 passes through the housing 121, with both ends of the push rod 121 located outside the housing 123. The reset element 122 is located outside the housing 123 and connected between the housing 123 and the push rod 121 (in this case, the actuating element 11, the housing 123, and the reset element 122 are arranged sequentially along the extension direction of the push rod). In other embodiments, the reset element 122 can also be pneumatically or hydraulically reset, applying reverse pressure to the push rod 121 when power is off via a pneumatic or hydraulic circuit (requiring an additional power source). When energized, the electromagnet drives the push rod 121; when de-energized, pneumatic or hydraulic pressure pushes the push rod 121 back. The integrated design of the reset element 122 with the electromagnet (such as a built-in spring) can reduce the size of the drive assembly 10, making it suitable for space-constrained automated production lines. At the same time, the elastic element, as a standard part (such as a spring), is easy to replace and maintain, reducing equipment downtime and maintenance costs.

[0047] In one embodiment, the reset member 122 is an elastic member. In this embodiment, the flexibility of the elastic member can tolerate a certain range of installation errors or movement deviations. For example, when the actuating member 11 and the receiving member 2 are slightly misaligned due to machining accuracy issues, the deformation of the elastic member can provide a certain "tolerance space" to ensure the smoothness of the connection and disengagement process. The elastic member can be a tension spring, compression spring, rubber spring, or rubber buffer block, etc.

[0048] In one embodiment, the push rod 121 penetrates the housing 123;

[0049] The reset member 122 can be compressed when the electromagnet is energized, so that the push rod 121 can drive the actuating member 11 to move to the first position; the reset member 122 can return to the initial position when the electromagnet is de-energized, so that it can drive the actuating member 11 to move to the second position. In this embodiment, the actuating member 11, the housing 123 and the reset member 122 are arranged sequentially along the extension direction (first direction) of the push rod 121, and one end of the push rod 121 is connected to the actuating member 11. The reset member 122 is a compression spring, which is sleeved on the outside of the other end of the push rod 121 of the electromagnet. One end of the compression spring is connected to the electromagnet housing 123, and the other end of the compression spring is connected to the push rod 121. When energized, the electromagnet push rod 121 extends against the spring compression force, pushing the actuating member 11 to connect with the receiving member 2; when de-energized, the spring releases elastic potential energy, pushing the push rod 121 to retract, causing the actuating member 11 to disengage. In other embodiments, the reset member 122 is a tension spring, one end of which is connected to the end of the electromagnet push rod 121, and the other end is fixed to an external structure (such as the support base 3) and is in a pre-stretched state. When energized, the push rod 121 extends against the spring tension to complete the connection; when de-energized, the spring tension pulls the push rod 121 back to achieve disengagement.

[0050] According to the embodiment of this utility model, during the sheet metal 70 delivery operation, the electromagnetic drive component 12 of the drive component 10 is activated, and its output end drives the actuating component 11 to reciprocate along a first direction. When the actuating component 11 moves to a suitable position, it can connect with the receiving component 2 on the conveying component 30. After the connection is completed, the rotary drive component 13 starts working, driving the actuating component 11 to rotate, so that the conveying component 30 can work normally and realize the sheet metal 70 delivery operation. After the sheet metal 70 delivery operation is completed, when the actuating component 11 needs to be separated from the receiving component 2, the electromagnetic drive component 12 drives the actuating component 11 to move in the opposite direction along the first direction, so that it is disconnected from the receiving component 2. Since the drive assembly 10 is an independent module, the actuating element 11 of the drive assembly 10 can be detachably connected to the receiving element 2 on the conveying assembly 30. Compared with the prior art where the drive assembly 10 and the conveying assembly 30 are always tightly connected, this avoids the continuous accumulation of minor mechanical wear or errors caused by the inseparability of components during long-term use, reducing the risk of component damage due to wear or errors, and thus effectively extending the service life of the drive assembly 10 and the conveying assembly 30 and other related components. At the same time, when maintenance, repair or adjustment of the drive assembly 10 is required, the actuating element 11 can be separated from the receiving element 2 using the electromagnetic drive element 12, without the need for large-scale disassembly of the entire conveying system. The operation is simple and quick, greatly reducing maintenance difficulty and cost, improving work efficiency, and reducing the impact of maintenance operations on production progress.

[0051] In addition, this embodiment of the invention provides a material feeding mechanism, including a receiving member 2 and a driving assembly 10 as described in the above embodiment. An electromagnetic driving member 12 can drive a pushing member 11 to move to a first position where it engages with the receiving member 2, or to a second position where it separates from the receiving member 2. When the pushing member 11 is engaged with the receiving member 2, a rotary driving member 13 can drive the pushing member 11 to rotate. In this embodiment, during the sheet metal 70 feeding operation, the electromagnetic driving member 12 is activated, driving the pushing member 11 to move along a first direction to the first position where it engages with the receiving member 2, thus forming a single unit with the receiving member 2. When the pushing member 11 is engaged with the receiving member 2, the rotary driving member 13 starts working, driving the pushing member 11 to rotate. Because the pushing member 11 is tightly engaged with the receiving member 2, the rotational force can be transmitted to the receiving member 2, thereby driving the conveying assembly 30 to work and completing the sheet metal 70 feeding operation. When the conveying task is completed or other operations are required, the electromagnetic drive 12 actuates again, driving the actuating member 11 to move in the opposite direction along the first direction to a second position separated from the receiving member 2, causing the conveying assembly 30 to stop working or to be able to perform other related operations. Compared with the conventional method where the drive assembly 10 and the conveying assembly 30 are always tightly connected, this application reduces the risk of failure caused by long-term friction, wear, or error accumulation, effectively reducing the probability of equipment repair and maintenance costs. It is understood that when the actuating member 11 is connected to the receiving member 2, the actuating member 11 can be rotated by the rotating drive 13 to finely adjust the rotation angle, so that the actuating member 11 can be precisely fixed to the receiving member 2. After the actuating member 11 is connected to the receiving member 2, the rotating drive 13 can, by rotating forward or backward, enable the conveying assembly 30 to convey the board material 70 (circuit board) on it from the outside of the material box 20 to the inside of the material box 20, or to convey the board material 70 on it from the inside of the material box 20 to the outside of the material box 20. By separating the actuating element 11 from the receiving element 2, the actuating element 11 can be connected to the receiving element 2 on different material boxes 20, which increases the flexibility of the drive assembly 10 and the efficiency of dispensing / feeding plates.

[0052] In one embodiment, the receiving member 2 includes a rotating base 21 and a plurality of lever shafts 22 spaced apart from the rotating base 21. When in a first position, the actuating member 11 can engage between two adjacent lever shafts 22, and the rotation drive member 13 can drive the receiving member 2 to rotate via the actuating member 11. In this embodiment, the rotating base 21 is connected to an external conveying assembly 30. For example, when the conveying assembly 30 includes a rotating shaft 301, the rotating base 21 is connected to the rotating shaft 301. In this embodiment, the actuating member 11 engages with two adjacent lever shafts 22 to form a rigid mesh, eliminating tooth backlash compared to traditional gear transmission. This allows for a more stable connection between the actuating member 11 and the receiving member 2, ensuring the stability of power transmission between them.

[0053] According to the material feeding mechanism of this utility model embodiment, during the sheet material 70 feeding operation, the electromagnetic drive 12 is activated, driving the actuating member 11 to move along the first direction to a first position where it engages with the receiving member 2, thus forming a whole with the receiving member 2. While the actuating member 11 is engaged with the receiving member 2, the rotary drive 13 starts working, driving the actuating member 11 to rotate. Because the actuating member 11 is tightly engaged with the receiving member 2, the rotational force can be transmitted to the receiving member 2, thereby driving the conveying assembly 30 to work and completing the sheet material 70 feeding operation. When the feeding task is completed or other operations are required, the electromagnetic drive 12 is activated again, driving the actuating member 11 to move in the opposite direction along the first direction to a second position where it is separated from the receiving member 2, causing the conveying assembly 30 to stop working or allowing other related operations to be performed. Compared with the traditional method where the drive assembly 10 and the conveying assembly 30 are always tightly connected, this application reduces the risk of failure caused by long-term friction, wear, or error accumulation, effectively reducing the probability of equipment repair and maintenance costs.

[0054] This utility model embodiment provides a sheet metal receiving and discharging device, including a material bin 20 and a feeding mechanism as described in the above embodiment. The material bin 20 is used to store sheet metal 70, and a conveying assembly 30 is provided on the material bin 20 for conveying the sheet metal 70 thereon. The receiving component 2 is drivenly connected to the conveying assembly 30. In this embodiment, the sheet metal 70 can be a circuit board. The actuating component 11 of the driving assembly 10 drives the conveying assembly 30 (such as a conveyor belt or roller) of the material bin 20 to operate, realizing the active conveying of the sheet metal 70 from inside the material bin 20 to an external workstation. During the delivery process, the driving assembly 10 maintains power transmission with the conveying assembly 30 through the receiving component 2 via a temporary connection, without the need for long-term close contact, and only achieves effective transmission during working hours. When the processing is paused or the sheet metal 70 is conveyed, the electromagnetic drive component 12 is de-energized, the electromagnetic force disappears, and the actuating component 11 is disengaged from the receiving component 2 under the action of the reset mechanism.

[0055] The conveying assembly 30 of the material bin 20 stops operating, the sheet metal 70 stops moving, the drive assembly 10 separates from the material bin 20, and enters a standby state, awaiting the next stage instruction. The drive assembly 10 is completely disengaged from the conveying assembly 30 of the material bin 20 in the non-working state, avoiding the problem of "continuous connection causing the material bin 20 to be passively stressed" in the traditional solution, and ensuring the positional accuracy and structural stability of the sheet metal 70 during storage.

[0056] In one embodiment, the conveying assembly 30 includes a rotating shaft 301, a driving wheel 302, a driven wheel 303, and a transmission bar 304. The rotating shaft 301 is rotatably connected to the material box 20. The driving wheel 302 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 301, and the driven wheel 303 is rotatably disposed on the material box 20. The driving wheel 302 and the driven wheel 303 are located on two opposite sides of the material box 20 along the conveying direction of the sheet material 70 on the conveying assembly 30. The transmission bar 304 is wound around the driving wheel 302 and the driven wheel 303.

[0057] The receiving member 2 is driven to the rotating shaft 301. The actuating member 11 can drive the rotating shaft 301 to rotate through the receiving member 2, so that the transmission bar 304 can transport the sheet metal 70 thereon; wherein, the transport direction of the sheet metal 70 intersects with the first direction. In this embodiment, the transport direction of the sheet metal 70 on the conveying assembly 30 is the secondary direction. Figure 4 The X-axis is used in the material box 20. The material box 20 has a frame structure, and the drive bar 304 can be a synchronous belt or a chain. By changing the direction of rotation of the rotating shaft 301, bidirectional conveying of the drive bar 304 can be achieved (e.g., forward discharge, reverse retraction), adapting to different scenario requirements. Simultaneously, the driving wheel 302 and driven wheel 303 are respectively located on both sides of the material box 20 along the conveying direction of the sheet 70, with the drive bar 304 wound around them, forming a compact ring-shaped transmission structure. This fully utilizes the lateral space of the material box 20, reducing the overall footprint of the conveying assembly 30 and facilitating integration into the sheet 70 delivery system.

[0058] In one embodiment, the sheet metal handling device further includes a lifting assembly 40, a material box bracket 50, and a movable main body 60. The driving assembly 10 and the lifting assembly 40 are respectively disposed on the main body 60. The material box bracket 50 is connected to the lifting assembly 40 and is used to carry the material box 20. The lifting assembly 40 is used to drive the material box bracket 50 to reciprocate in a second direction; wherein the first direction and the second direction intersect. In this embodiment, the second direction is... Figure 8 In the Z-direction, the movable main body 60 can be an AGV trolley, and the lifting component 40 (such as a screw and nut mechanism, motor chain or cylinder) can drive the material box bracket 50 to move in the vertical direction (orthogonal to the conveying direction). When the main body 60 moves to different production line stations, the lifting component 40 can quickly adjust the height of the material box 20 so that its conveying component 30 is aligned with the height of the downstream equipment (such as roller conveyor or bearing mechanism), without the need for manual handling or raising of the material box 20.

[0059] In one embodiment, the material bin 20 is provided with multiple storage compartments 201 in the second direction. Each storage compartment 201 is provided with a conveying component 30, and each conveying component 30 is drivenly connected to a receiving component 2. In this embodiment, the material bin 20 is raised and lowered by the lifting component 40, so that the receiving components 2 on the conveying components 30 of all storage compartments 201 of the material bin 20 can be drivenly connected to the actuating component 11. This allows the actuating component 11 to independently drive each conveying component 30 to work, thereby enabling the conveying component 30 to convey the board material on it from the outside of the material bin 20 to the inside of the material bin 20 (board receiving), or to convey the board material 70 on it from the inside of the material bin 20 to the outside of the material bin 20 (board dispensing). At the same time, the material bin 20 and the driving component 10 are separate, so the material bin 20 can be replaced at will, increasing the flexibility of the board material receiving and dispensing device and increasing the efficiency of board dispensing / dispensing.

[0060] In one embodiment, the sheet material handling device further includes a battery and an electronic control board. The main body 60 includes a movable chassis and a mounting base disposed on one side of the top of the chassis. The battery, electronic control board, and lifting assembly 40 are all disposed on the mounting base.

[0061] In one embodiment, the sheet metal receiving and placing device further includes a temporary storage rack 80, which is used to temporarily store the material box 20. The lifting component 40 can remove the material box 20 from the temporary storage rack 80 through the material box bracket 50, and at the same time, the lifting component 40 can temporarily place the material box 20 on the temporary storage rack 80.

[0062] In one embodiment, the sheet metal handling device further includes a toggle position sensor and a first partition plate. The first partition plate can cooperate with the toggle position sensor to detect the position of the toggle member 11. The toggle position sensor is connected to the support base 3, and the first partition plate is connected to the toggle member 11; or the toggle position sensor is connected to the toggle member 11, and the first partition plate is connected to the support base 3. The relative position change between the toggle position sensor (such as a proximity switch or photoelectric sensor) and the first partition plate can detect the initial position, the end position of the movement stroke, and the intermediate state of the toggle member 11 in real time, realizing core functions such as accurate position feedback, reliable action verification, fault warning, and protection, significantly improving the automation level and operational stability of the equipment.

[0063] In one embodiment, the sheet metal handling device further includes a photoelectric sensor and a second baffle plate, which cooperate to detect the moving distance of the actuating member 11. The photoelectric sensor is connected to the slide rail fixing plate 32, and the second baffle plate is connected to the sliding connecting plate 52, or the photoelectric sensor is connected to the sliding connecting plate 52, and the second baffle plate is connected to the slide rail fixing plate 32. The drive assembly 10 also includes a photoelectric adjustment block, which is connected to the slide rail fixing plate 32. The photoelectric sensor or the second baffle plate is movably connected to the photoelectric adjustment block. It is understood that the detection principle of the photoelectric sensor is based on the blocking or reflection of the light beam by the object being detected, and the synchronous loop selects the circuit to detect the presence or absence of the object. By integrating a triple position detection and adjustment structure of a photoelectric sensor + second baffle plate and photoelectric adjustment block, the drive assembly 10 achieves dynamic error compensation and adaptive adjustment capabilities, significantly improving operational stability and compatibility under complex working conditions.

[0064] According to the sheet metal receiving and discharging device of this utility model embodiment, when the production process requires sheet metal 70, the electromagnetic drive component 12 of the drive component 10 is energized, generating electromagnetic force to drive the actuating component 11 to move, temporarily fixing it to the receiving component 2 (which is connected to the conveying component 30 of the material box 20). The power of the drive component 10 is transmitted to the receiving component 2 through the actuating component 11, thereby driving the conveying component 30 of the material box 20 to operate, thus enabling the conveying component 30 to transport the sheet metal 70 on it from the outside of the material box 20 to the inside of the material box 20, or from the inside of the material box 20 to the outside of the material box 20. The conveying component 30 operates continuously under the drive of the drive component 10, ensuring that the sheet metal 70 is transported at a set speed and path, meeting the continuity requirements of the production process. During the delivery process, the drive component 10 and the conveying component 30 maintain power transmission through a temporary connection, without the need for long-term close contact, achieving effective transmission only during working hours. When the processing is paused or the sheet 70 is conveyed, the electromagnetic drive 12 is de-energized, the electromagnetic force disappears, and the actuating component 11 is disengaged from the receiving component 2 under the action of the reset mechanism.

[0065] The conveying assembly 30 of the material bin 20 stops operating, the sheet metal 70 stops moving, the drive assembly 10 separates from the material bin 20, and enters a standby state, awaiting the next stage instruction. The drive assembly 10 is completely disengaged from the conveying assembly 30 of the material bin 20 in the non-working state, avoiding the problem of "continuous connection causing the material bin 20 to be passively stressed" in the traditional solution, and ensuring the positional accuracy and structural stability of the sheet metal 70 during storage.
