[0029] See Figures 4-6The alternating transport assembly 32 includes a first linear drive module 321, a first transport connecting plate 322, and multiple first transport robots 323. The multiple first transport robots 323 are linearly arranged on the first transport connecting plate 322 and are continuously arranged along the transmission direction of the first linear drive module 321. Specifically, the sorting and picking assembly 33 includes a second linear drive module 331, a second transport connecting plate 332, and second transport robots 333. The second transport robots 333 are linearly arranged on the second transport connecting plate 332 and are continuously arranged along the transmission direction of the second linear drive module 331. In this embodiment, the multiple first transport robots 323 of the alternating transport assembly 32 are linearly arranged and continuously arranged along the transmission direction of the first linear drive module 321. This layout enables efficient and continuous transport of the magnetic core device between different workstations. The precise linear motion of the first linear drive module 321 ensures that each first handling robot 323 can quickly and stably reach the designated position, enabling rapid gripping and transfer of magnetic core components. This significantly improves overall handling efficiency, reduces waiting time between workstations, and accelerates the testing process. The second handling robot 333 of the sorting and picking assembly 33 is also linearly arranged on the second handling connecting plate 332 and along the transmission direction of the second linear drive module 331. This design makes the sorting and picking of magnetic core components more orderly and accurate. The second linear drive module 331 ensures the high precision of the movement of the second handling robot 333, enabling it to accurately pick up magnetic core components from specific locations and place them in suitable workstations. This helps improve the accuracy and stability of testing and reduces testing errors caused by material handling deviations. The two components work together to further optimize the flow of magnetic core components in the multi-station testing and handling mechanism, improving the overall operating efficiency and reliability of the equipment and ensuring efficient and accurate testing of magnetic core components.

[0030] The first handling robot 323 includes a first lifting drive module 3231, a first connecting seat 3232, a first clamping drive module 3233, and a first clamping plate 3234. The first lifting drive module 3231 is disposed on the first handling connecting plate 322, the first connecting seat 3232 is disposed on the first lifting drive module 3231, the first clamping drive module 3233 is disposed on the first connecting seat 3232, and the first clamping plate 3234 is disposed on the first clamping drive module 3233. Specifically, the second handling robot 333 includes a second lifting drive module 3331, a second connecting seat 3332, a second clamping drive module 3333, and a second clamping plate 3334. The second lifting drive module 3331 is mounted on the second handling connecting plate 332, the second connecting seat 3332 is mounted on the second lifting drive module 3331, the second clamping drive module 3333 is mounted on the second connecting seat 3332, and the second clamping plate 3334 is mounted on the second clamping drive module 3333. In this embodiment, the first lifting drive module 3231 of the first handling robot 323 is mounted on the handling connecting plate 322, which can precisely control the lifting height of the first connecting seat 3232, thereby driving the first clamping drive module 3233 and the first clamping plate 3234 mounted thereon to achieve precise height positioning. This allows the first clamping plate 3234 to accurately rise or fall to the target height according to the position requirements of the magnetic core device at different workstations, greatly improving the accuracy of height control during the handling process. The first clamping drive module 3233 is mounted on the first connecting seat 3232 and can flexibly drive the first clamping plate 3234 to perform clamping and releasing actions. The clamping force for the magnetic core device can be precisely controlled, ensuring stable clamping to prevent the device from falling during transportation, while also avoiding damage to the magnetic core device due to excessive clamping force. Similarly, the structure of the second handling robot 333 has similar advantages to that of the first handling robot 323. Its second lifting drive module 3331, second connecting seat 3332, second clamping drive module 3333, and second clamping plate 3334 work together to further enhance the overall handling capacity and accuracy of the handling mechanism. The two handling robots work together to achieve efficient and accurate handling of magnetic core devices between multiple workstations, effectively improving testing efficiency and reducing errors and mistakes that may occur during manual handling.

[0031] The first clamping drive module 3233 is a mirror-driven clamping cylinder. Two first clamping plates 3234 are disposed opposite each other on the first clamping drive module 3233. A first clamping groove 3235 is provided on the opposite side of each of the two first clamping plates 3234, and a first rubber pad 3236 is provided on the first clamping groove 3235. Specifically, the second clamping drive module 3333 is also a mirror-driven clamping cylinder.

A second clamping groove 3335 is provided on the opposite side of each of the two second clamping plates 3334, and a second rubber pad 3336 is provided on the second clamping groove 3335. In this embodiment, the first clamping drive module 3233 uses a mirror-driven clamping cylinder, which, in conjunction with the two oppositely disposed first clamping plates 3234, enables precise, stable, and synchronous clamping actions. The design of the first clamping groove 3235 provides a specific positioning space for the magnetic core device, ensuring accurate positioning during clamping and guaranteeing positional precision. The first rubber pad 3236 serves multiple purposes: firstly, it increases friction, preventing the magnetic core device from slipping due to movement during transport; secondly, it acts as a buffer, preventing damage to the surface of the magnetic core device from rigid clamping. The second clamping drive module 3333 has a similar structure to the first clamping drive module 3233, also achieving precise and stable clamping. The coordinated operation of the second clamping groove 3335 and the second rubber pad 3336 further enhances the reliability of transporting the magnetic core device. These two clamping modules work together to accurately and smoothly transport the magnetic core device from one station to another during multi-station testing and transport, effectively reducing positional deviations and device damage during transport.

The defective zone storage component 41 includes multiple sets of defective conveyor belts 12 arranged in parallel, and the good product discharge component 42 is located on one side of the defective zone storage component 41. In this embodiment, the defective zone storage component 41, composed of multiple sets of defective conveyor belts 12 arranged in parallel, can efficiently and accurately store magnetic core devices that have been determined to be defective through testing. Magnetic core devices of different defective types or batches can be placed on different defective conveyor belts 12 for classified storage, facilitating subsequent targeted analysis and processing, and greatly improving the efficiency and accuracy of defective product management. This helps to quickly trace the cause of defects, optimize production processes, and reduce the defect rate. The layout of the good product discharge component 42 located on one side of the defective zone storage component 41 achieves effective separation of good and defective products. Good products can be discharged quickly and smoothly, ensuring the continuity and efficiency of the production process. This spatial layout is reasonable and compact, maximizing the efficiency of material handling within a limited mechanical space, avoiding confusion between good and defective products, and ensuring product quality. Meanwhile, the defective partition storage component 41 and the good product discharge component 42 work together to reduce the complexity of the handling mechanism's movements, reduce energy consumption during equipment operation, and improve the overall operational stability and reliability of the equipment.
