[0040] Specifically, rotating the handle 46 causes the pressure block 43 to rotate around the rotating rod 42, moving the pressure block 43 away from the opening 63 of the receiving space 62. When the magazine 6 is located in the receiving space 62 formed by the pusher 2 and the reference plate 12, rotating the handle 46 causes the pressure block 43 to rotate around the rotating rod 42, so that the pressure block 43 passes through the opening 63 of the receiving space 62.

[0042] Specifically, since the rotating rod 42 is mounted on the linear bearing 45 and a spring 47 is sleeved on the rotating rod 42, the rotating rod 42 can rotate and extend on the linear bearing 45. Under the force of the spring 47, the pressure block 43 is pressed against the side of the hopper 6, and the hopper 6 can be pushed to the end plate position of the receiving space 62, quickly locking the two sides of the hopper 6.

[0043] In one embodiment of this utility model, the pusher frame 2 and the reference frame 11 are provided with a support 22.

[0045] Specifically, the top material motor 55 drives the lead screw 54 to rotate, thereby driving the lifting frame 52 to move upward along the top material frame 51, which can quickly lift and load materials. It has a high degree of automation, saves the space of the top material drive, and can transport the hopper 6 to the required height and platform without manual intervention, effectively improving production efficiency.

[0047] Specifically, the lifting plate 522 on the frame 521 extends into the hopper 6 and pushes the material in the hopper 6 upward from the bottom, so that the material is fed through the inlet / outlet 61 at the top of the receiving space 62. The lifting plate 522 can stably push the material tray in the hopper 6 to ensure feeding stability. The adjustment groove 523 is equipped with a telescopic plate 524, which is bolted to the adjustment groove 523. This can expand the contact area between the lifting plate 522 and the material in the hopper 6, and can support and position materials of multiple specifications, with a wide range of applications.

[0048] In one embodiment of the present invention, buffer frames 56 are provided on both sides of the top material frame 51, and buffers 57 are provided on the buffer frames 56. The buffers 57 are arranged opposite to the lifting frame 52. A baffle 59 is provided on the lifting frame 52, and a slotted photoelectric switch 58 matching the baffle 59 is provided on the top material frame 51.

[0049] Specifically, the buffer 57 is arranged opposite to the lifting frame 52. When the lifting frame 52 moves to its maximum stroke, the buffer 57 can buffer the lifting frame 52 to prevent it from shaking and improve the service life of the material lifting mechanism 5. The material lifting frame 51 is equipped with a slotted photoelectric switch 58 that matches the baffle 59. The position of the baffle can be detected by the slotted photoelectric switch 58, which can better detect the up and down movement stroke of the lifting frame 52 and ensure the accuracy of lifting the material.

[0050] In one embodiment of the present invention, the pushing mechanism 3 includes a pushing frame 31 and a pushing plate 32. A guide rod 33 is provided on the pushing plate 32, and a guide sleeve is provided on the pushing frame 31. The guide rod 33 passes through the guide sleeve. A threaded hole is provided on the pushing frame 31, and a pushing screw 34 is provided on the threaded hole. The free end of the pushing screw 34 is connected to a second bearing seat on the pushing plate 32.

[0051] Specifically, the magazine 6 is located within the accommodating space 62 formed by the pusher frame 2 and the reference plate 12. Rotating the push screw 34 causes the pusher plate 32 to move towards the pusher frame 2 until the pusher frame 2 clamps the magazine 6 onto the accommodating space 62. This quickly clamps and positions the magazine 6, preventing it from shaking during the feeding process and improving feeding stability. The pusher frame 31 is equipped with a guide sleeve, and the guide rod 33 passes through the guide sleeve to guide the pusher plate 32, ensuring that the pusher plate 32 and the pusher frame 31 exert uniform pushing force, which can guarantee better clamping and positioning of the magazine 6 by the pusher frame 2.

[0052] Usage process

[0053] Rotating the handle 46 causes the pressure block 43 to rotate around the rotating rod 42, moving the pressure block 43 away from the opening 63 of the receiving space 62. Limiting components such as end plates are provided on the side opposite to the receiving space 62 to block and limit material flow on one side of the hopper 6. After the opening 63 of the receiving space 62 is opened, one side of the cartridge hopper 6, loaded with material, is placed through the opening 63 onto the base plate 13 at the bottom of the base plate 12. The pusher 2 is mounted on the moving plate 15, which slides on the slide rail 14. Pushing the pusher 2 causes the pusher base plate at the bottom of the pusher plate 21 to support the other side of the cartridge hopper 6, placing the cartridge hopper 6 within the receiving space 62 formed by the pusher 2 and the base plate 12. Rotating the handle 46 causes the pressure block 43 to rotate around the rotating rod 42, causing the pressure block 43 to pass through the opening 63 of the receiving space 62. Since the rotating rod 42 passes through the linear bearing 45, and the rotation... A spring 47 is fitted on the rotating rod 42, which allows the rotating rod 42 to rotate and extend on the linear bearing 45. Under the force of the spring 47, the pressure block 43 is pressed against the side of the hopper 6, and the hopper 6 can be pushed to the end plate position of the receiving space 62. The rotating push screw 34 causes the push plate 32 to move towards the pusher frame 2 until the pusher frame 2 clamps the hopper 6 onto the receiving space 62. The top material motor 55 drives the lead screw 54 to rotate, thereby driving the lifting frame 52 to move upward along the top material frame 51. This causes the lifting plate 522 set on the frame 521 to penetrate into the hopper 6 and push the material in the hopper 6 upward from the bottom. The material is then fed through the inlet / outlet 61 at the top of the receiving space 62. The device is highly automated and can transport the hopper 6 to the required height and platform without manual intervention. It is ingeniously designed and has a simple structure. Using this device, the material trays on the magazine hopper 6 can be accurately fed, improving the feeding accuracy.
