[0018] Example 1

[0019] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the present invention proposes a feeding and discharging mechanism, including a feeding seat 1 and a cleaning unit. A frame 103 is provided on the feeding seat 1, and a vacuum suction cup assembly is installed on the frame 103 via a universal suction cup robotic arm. The universal suction cup robotic arm and the vacuum suction cup assembly are existing technologies, and those skilled in the art can clearly understand their principles, so they will not be described in detail here. The cleaning unit is located between the feeding seat 1 and the inlet of the CTP plate-making machine. The outlet of the CTP plate-making machine is provided with a U-shaped discharge guide plate and a discharge assembly. The U-shaped discharge guide plate and the discharge assembly are existing technologies, and their specific structure and principle are detailed in the patent with authorization announcement number CN220501997U.

[0020] The cleaning unit includes a feeding rack 2, a support 3, a cleaning roller, and a fixing pipe 405. The feeding rack 2 is symmetrically equipped with a first conveying mechanism 201 and a second conveying mechanism 202, both of which are equipped with conveying components. The support 3 is installed at the top center of the feeding rack 2, and a mounting frame 302 is installed on the support 3 via a lifting component. The lifting component is a hydraulic rod, and both the support 3 and the mounting frame 302 are U-shaped. Two sets of cleaning rollers are provided, which are respectively installed on the feeding rack 2 and the mounting frame 302. The cleaning rollers are driven to rotate by a motor installed on the feeding rack 2 or the mounting frame 302. Multiple sets of dust suction holes 403 are opened on the cleaning rollers. The fixing pipe 405 is installed at the output end of the cleaning rollers, and the output end of the fixing pipe 405 is connected to an external dust suction component.

[0021] Furthermore, the cleaning roller includes a cleaning tube 4 and a connecting tube 404; one end of the cleaning tube 4 is rotatably connected to the feeding frame 2 or the mounting frame 302 via a motor drive, and multiple sets of soft brushes 402 are evenly distributed on the cleaning tube 4; one end of the connecting tube 404 is connected to the end of the cleaning tube 4 away from the motor, and the other end of the connecting tube 404 is rotatably connected to the fixed tube 405, and a limit rod 401 is installed on the fixed tube 405, and the other end of the limit rod 401 is connected to the feeding frame 2 or the mounting frame 302; a clearance opening 301 is provided on the side wall of the bracket 3, and the setting of the clearance opening 301 can avoid interfering with the up and down movement adjustment of the mounting frame 302.

[0022] Furthermore, a soft brush 402 is detachably installed on the outer periphery of the cleaning tube 4. A Velcro A side is installed on the outer periphery of the cleaning tube 4, and a Velcro B side is provided on the soft brush 402 on the side wall away from the bristles. The Velcro B side is attached to the Velcro A side, and multiple sets of soft brushes 402 are evenly distributed on the cleaning tube 4 and the soft brushes 402.

[0023] Furthermore, a material handling assembly is provided in the discharge cavity 104 on the loading seat 1. The material handling assembly includes a slide plate 101 and a sorting plate 102. The slide plate 101 is slidably connected to the discharge cavity 104 by a first telescopic component installed on the loading seat 1. The first telescopic component is a hydraulic rod. The discharge cavity 104 is provided with a guide groove. The slide plate 101 is provided with a slider. The slider is slidably connected to the guide groove to improve the stability of the slide plate 101. The sorting plate 102 is slidably connected to the discharge cavity 104 by a second telescopic component installed on the side wall of the loading seat 1. Two sets of sorting plates 102 are provided, and the two sets of sorting plates 102 are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the slide plate 101.

[0024] Furthermore, the discharge chamber 104 is inclinedly arranged on the loading seat 1, and the slide plate 101 and the two sets of sorting plates 102 are all arranged correspondingly to the discharge chamber 104.

[0025] In this embodiment, multiple sets of plate-making materials are placed in the slide plate 101 within the feeding chamber 104. Since both the slide plate 101 and the feeding chamber 104 are inclined, during feeding, the plate-making materials, under their own weight, abut against the inclined surface of the feeding chamber 104 to align the materials in the front-to-back direction. Then, the second telescopic component drives two sets of aligning plates 102 to reciprocate along the feeding chamber 104, moving closer and further away from each other, thereby aligning the plate-making materials in the left-to-right direction. This aligning of the plate-making materials facilitates their smooth entry into the CTP plate-making machine's feed inlet. The controller activates the lifting component to drive the mounting frame 302 down to a suitable position, adjusting the distance between the two sets of cleaning rollers to accommodate the thickness of the plate-making materials. Finally, the universal suction cup robotic arm drives the central suction cup in the vacuum suction cup assembly to move into the feeding chamber 104. The highest set of plate-making materials is adsorbed and conveyed to the first conveying mechanism 201. The first conveying mechanism 201 then transports the materials between two sets of cleaning rollers, which rotate in opposite directions. The external dust collection component is activated, and the soft brush 402 sucks up the dust and fibers on the plate-making materials. The dust and fibers are then collected in the collection box of the external dust collection component along the connecting pipe 404 and the fixing pipe 405 for easy cleaning. The soft brush 402 can brush up the dust and fiber impurities that are difficult to adsorb on the plate-making materials and absorb them by multiple sets of soft brushes 402. After a period of use, the hook and loop fastener B side on the back of the soft brush 402 can be separated from the hook and loop fastener A side on the cleaning pipe 4 for replacement and cleaning. After the plate-making materials are cleaned, they are conveyed to the feed port of the CTP plate-making machine through the second conveying mechanism 202.

[0026] Example 2

[0028] In this embodiment, after the plate-making raw material is arranged and aligned by the material handling component on the feeding seat 1, the plate-making raw material is then picked up by the vacuum suction cup component on the frame 103 and placed on the cleaning unit to clean the impurities on the plate-making raw material. Then the plate-making raw material is transported to the CTP plate-making machine. After the plate-making is completed, it is collected into the discharge component.

[0029] The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited thereto. Various changes can be made within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
