An automatic petal separation and feeding device

Abstract

This utility model relates to the field of artificial flower production technology, and in particular to an automatic petal separation and feeding device for artificial flowers. It includes an adjacent feeding mechanism and a dispensing mechanism. The dispensing mechanism includes a placement plate for holding petals, multiple positioning pins inserted into the placement plate, and at least one dividing pressure plate placed on the side of the placement plate. The positioning pins are used for multi-directional limiting and clamping of the petals. The dividing pressure plate has an internal air channel structure, and horizontal and vertical drive units are sequentially connected to the dividing pressure plate. The feeding mechanism includes a robotic arm, a picking plate located at the front end of the robotic arm, and multiple needle-type suction cups and vacuum suction cups located below the picking plate. The needle-type suction cups are distributed on at least one side of the vacuum suction cups, and the needle-type suction cups and vacuum suction cups sequentially grasp the edges and corners of the petals. This device solves the technical problem that existing multi-layer artificial flower petals easily stick together when stacked, requiring manual separation and resulting in low production efficiency. It is applied to the automatic separation and feeding of single petals, improving production efficiency.
