[0020] The technical solutions in this embodiment will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0021] like Figures 1-4 As shown, this embodiment discloses a magnetic feeding and conveying device for folding mobile phones, including a vibratory feeder 1, a transfer device 2, a vertical shaft 3, and a pushing component 4. The vibratory feeder 1 includes a conveying channel 11. The vertical shaft 3 is installed on the top plate 211 of the transfer device 2 via a mounting bracket 5, and the vertical shaft 3 is located in the straight conveying direction of the transfer device 2. The vertical shaft 3 is provided with a temporary storage channel 31 and a pushing channel 32. The temporary storage channel 31 is vertically arranged and connects to the upper end face of the vertical shaft 3. The vertical shaft 3 is provided with a notch 33, which is located at the upper end of the vertical shaft 3 and connects to the temporary storage channel 31. The conveying channel 11 connects to the vertical shaft 3. The conveying channel 11 connects to the notch 33. The conveying channel 11 delivers the magnet 101 to the upper end of the temporary storage channel 31. The output end of the conveying channel 11 connects to the notch 33. The vibrating plate 1 conveys the magnet 101 to the vertical shaft 3 through vibration. The inner bottom surface of the conveying channel 11 is lower than the upper end surface of the vertical shaft 3, so that the conveying channel 11 delivers the magnet 101 to the upper end of the vertical shaft 3. When the magnet 101 falls into the temporary storage channel 31, it can be blocked by the side wall of the temporary storage channel 31 and fall smoothly into the temporary storage channel 31. The temporary storage channel 31 can temporarily store multiple magnets 101. When the lowest magnet 101 is delivered, the magnet 101 is replenished from the upper end of the temporary storage channel 31.

[0022] The push channel 32 connects the lower end of the temporary storage channel 31 and the two opposite outer walls of the shaft 3. The push channel 32 is horizontally positioned and perpendicular to the temporary storage channel 31. The push assembly 4 is installed in the shaft 3 and includes a push block 41, a guide rod 42, and a spring 43. The push block 41 can slide along the push channel 32 and is equipped with a push rod 411, which is at least partially located in the push channel 32 and can slide along the push channel 32. One end of the guide rod 42 is fixedly connected to the push block 41 and passes through the shaft 3. The guide rod 42 is slidably connected to the shaft 3 and provides sliding guidance for the movement of the push block 41. A retaining ring 421 is installed at the other end of the guide rod 42. The retaining ring 421 serves as a guide for the movement of the guide rod 42. Lateral movement provides a limit. The shaft 3 is provided with a spring groove 321. The spring 43 is fitted onto the guide rod 42 and installed in the spring groove 321. The spring 43 abuts against the push block 41 and applies a force away from the shaft 3 to the push block 41. The push block 41 has a first state and a second state. In the first state, the retaining ring 421 abuts against the outer wall of the shaft 3 and the push rod 411 moves away from the lower end of the temporary storage channel 31. In the second state, the retaining ring 421 moves away from the outer wall of the shaft 3 and the push rod 411 fills the push channel 32. During the process from the first state to the second state, the push block 41 can push the lowest magnet 101 in the temporary storage channel 31 out of the push channel 32. After the magnet 101 is pushed out, the push block 41 is restored from the second state to the first state by the force of the spring 43.

[0023] like Figure 2 As shown, the transfer device 2 includes a conveyor belt 21, multiple receiving plates 22, a track 23, and a slider 24. The receiving plates 22 are fixedly installed on the outer wall of the conveyor belt 21. The multiple receiving plates 22 are circulated around the conveyor belt 21. The track 23 is located on the outer periphery of the conveyor belt 21. The slider 24 is fixedly connected to the receiving plates 22. The lower end of the slider 24 is provided with multiple rotating wheels 241. The rotating wheels 241 are distributed on the inner and outer walls of the track 23. The slider 24 and the track 23 are slidably connected. The slider 24 and the track 23 enable the receiving plates 22 to be transferred more stably. The upper surface of the receiving plate 22 is provided with a receiving groove 221. When each receiving plate 22 passes under the shaft 3, the receiving groove 221 receives a magnet 101 pushed out from the push channel 32.

[0024] like Figure 3 , Figure 4As shown, the receiving plate 22 is provided with a lever 222, which is located behind the receiving plate 22 in the conveying direction of the receiving groove 221. The lever 222 has a first inclined surface 2221, with the end of the first inclined surface 2221 away from the receiving groove 221 being higher than the end of the first inclined surface 2221 near the receiving groove 221. The push block 41 has a second inclined surface 412, with the end of the second inclined surface 412 away from the vertical shaft 3 being lower than the end of the second inclined surface 412 near the vertical shaft 3. When the receiving plate 22 passes under the vertical shaft 3, the first inclined surface 2221 of the lever 222 abuts against the second inclined surface 412 of the push block 41. Due to the mutual obstruction of the two inclined surfaces, the receiving plate 22 can drive the push block 41 from the first state to the second state, thus transferring the temporarily stored data. The lowest magnet 101 in channel 31 is pushed out and falls into receiving groove 221. The lever 222 needs to have elastic deformation capability. When the push block 41 reaches the second state, the push block 41 can no longer push. At this time, the two inclined surfaces are continuously subjected to force, which can make the lever 222 deform downward completely. Finally, the first inclined surface 2221 leaves the second inclined surface 412, and the receiving plate 22 can completely leave the bottom of the shaft 3. Due to the elastic deformation recovery, the lever 222 restores itself. The push block 41 is reset to the first state by the force of the spring 43. When each receiving plate 22 passes under the shaft 3, the receiving groove 221 receives a magnet 101 pushed out by the push channel 32. The delivered magnet 101 can be gripped by the claw when it reaches the designated position.

All technical solutions falling within the scope of this utility model's concept are protected. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, any improvements and modifications made without departing from the principle of this utility model should also be considered within the protection scope of this utility model.
