[0002] With the development of technology, magnetic materials have been widely used in industries such as motors, electroacoustics, automobiles, and electronics. In the production and processing of electronic products, diaphragms (such as those for microphones, headphones, and speakers), and electroacoustic equipment, some equipment requires magnets that are not conventionally rectangular or circular. Depending on the product design requirements, magnets need to be combined into a specific shape and size. Among these, the Halbach array is a composite magnetic structure, an approximately ideal engineering structure. Permanent magnets with different magnetization directions are arranged in a specific order, resulting in a significantly stronger magnetic field on one side and a significantly weaker magnetic field on the other. The goal is to generate the strongest magnetic field in the working area using the minimum number of magnets.

[0003] In the processing of composite magnets, each magnetic block needs to be placed into the assembly fixture according to requirements. The existing magnetic block feeding device cannot efficiently and reliably separate and feed magnetic blocks that have been magnetized and are small in size, and needs to be improved.

Detailed Implementation

[0014] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present invention can be combined with each other.

[0015] like Figures 1 to 11 In the embodiment of the horizontal feeding device for magnet assembly of this utility model shown, the horizontal feeding device for magnet assembly includes a horizontally arranged magazine 10, which is filled with elongated magnets 101. The magazine 10 is provided with a magnet receiving groove arranged in a horizontal direction, and the magnet receiving groove is filled with a plurality of magnets 101, which can slide horizontally within the magnet receiving groove. The magazine 10 is also provided with a translational slide groove 11 corresponding to the magnet receiving groove, and a feeding plate 12 that can horizontally push the magnets 101 is inserted into the translational slide groove 11. Figure 1 , Figure 3 As shown, when the feeding plate 12 moves from left to right in the translation chute 11, it can push the magnet 101 filled in the magnet receiving slot to the right; a vertical distribution plate 20 is also installed at the discharge end on the right side of the magazine 10. The vertical distribution plate 20 is provided with a vertical distribution slot 201 corresponding to the outlet of the magnet receiving slot. When the feeding plate 12 moves towards the vertical distribution plate 20 in the translation chute 11, it can push the magnet in the magnet receiving slot towards the vertical distribution slot 201; a distribution and pushing vertical plate 30 is also installed on the vertical distribution plate 20 to push the magnet 101 in the vertical distribution slot 201 upward along the vertical distribution slot 201.

[0016] In the above embodiments of this application, the elongated magnets filling the magnet receiving slots of the magazine 10 are magnetized, and each magnet 101 is sequentially loaded into the magnet receiving slots according to a predetermined posture and can attract each other, such as... Figure 1 , Figure 3 As shown, the feeding plate 12 pushes all the magnets in the magnet receiving slot to the right, so that the rightmost magnet leaves the magnet receiving slot and enters the vertical distribution slot 201 on the vertical distribution plate 20. Then, the distribution pushing vertical plate 30 pushes the magnet 101 that has entered the vertical distribution slot 201 upward. It can be understood that the width of the vertical distribution slot 201 is greater than the width of the magnet 101 but less than 1.5 times the width of the magnet 101, so that only one magnet 101 can slide up and down in the vertical distribution slot 201. The width of the vertical distribution slot 201 also needs to ensure that the magnet 101 will not flip over during the upward movement. Under the lifting action of the material distribution and pushing vertical plate 30, the magnet 101 in the vertical material distribution groove 201 is separated from the magnet 101 in the magnet receiving groove and moves upward along the vertical material distribution groove 101. The material distribution and pushing vertical plate 30 can push the magnet 101 in the vertical material distribution groove 201 upward out of the vertical material distribution plate 20, thereby efficiently and reliably supplying materials for magnet assembly.

[0017] like Figure 7As shown in the figure, two magnets 101 are displayed in the same vertical material distribution groove 201. The position of the magnet 101 located on the lower side is the position when the magnet 101 enters the vertical material distribution groove 201 and has not yet been pushed upward; the position of the magnet 101 located on the upper side is the position after the magnet 101 is lifted and pushed by the material distribution pushing vertical plate 30.

[0018] In one embodiment of this application, preferably, the vertical distribution plate 20 is further provided with a magnetic suction block 23 corresponding to the vertical distribution groove 201. The magnetic suction block 23 is used to draw the magnet 101 in the magnet receiving groove of the magazine 10 into the vertical distribution groove 201. Specifically, when using the horizontal feeding device for assembling the magnet, firstly, the magnet 101 to be assembled is filled into the magnet receiving groove of the magazine 10 and the magazine 10 is installed and fixed. Then, the magnet 101 filled in the magnet receiving groove is pushed together towards the outlet end of the magazine by the feeding plate 12. Figure 3 As shown, when the magnet 101 filled in the magnet receiving tank moves to the right and approaches the vertical distribution plate 20, the magnetic attractor 23 attracts the magnet 101 filled in the magnet receiving tank into the vertical distribution tank 201; as Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the magnetic block 23 is a long cylindrical shape. The magnetic block 23 is a magnet, and its polarity is arranged to attract the magnet 101. Alternatively, the magnetic block 23 may be made of ferromagnetic materials such as iron blocks. The magnet 101 has a width of 0.4mm-0.7mm, a thickness of 0.3mm-0.8mm, and a length of 8mm-10mm. That is, the magnet 101 is a very small, elongated magnetic block and is already magnetized. When feeding begins, the feeding plate 12 moves the magnet 101 filled in the magnet receiving groove to the right, closer to and vertically aligned with the distributing plate 20. Then, the magnetic block 23 pulls the magnet 101 into the vertical distributing groove 201. It can be understood that the magnet receiving groove... The magnets 101 filled in the storage tank move to the right together under the magnetic attraction of the magnetic block 23, and the rightmost magnet 101 enters the vertical material distribution tank 201. Then, the material distribution and pushing vertical plate 30 pushes the magnets 101 in the vertical material distribution tank 201 upward. After the material distribution and pushing vertical plate 30 moves upward to complete the material distribution and pushing, the material distribution and pushing vertical plate 30 moves up and down to reset. Under the magnetic attraction of the magnetic block 23, the magnets 101 filled in the magnet receiving tank move to the right again, and the rightmost magnet 101 enters the vertical material distribution tank 201. This cycle repeats to realize the horizontal feeding, vertical distribution, and vertical pushing of the magnets 101.

[0019] In one embodiment of this application, preferably, the magazine 10 is provided with a plurality of parallel magnet receiving slots, each magnet receiving slot is respectively provided with a translation slide 11, each translation slide 11 is inserted into a feeding plate 12, and each feeding plate 12 is fixedly connected to a translation push plate 13.

[0020] In one embodiment of this application, preferably, as shown below, Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the lower end of each feeding plate 12 is fixedly connected to a translation push plate 13. The translation push plate 13 is mounted on the translation slider of the translation cylinder 14 (pneumatic push rod or electric push rod), thereby driving the feeding plate 12 to move within the translation groove 11 via the translation cylinder 14. Preferably, a lifting cylinder 15 (pneumatic push rod or electric push rod) is also mounted on the translation slider of the translation cylinder 14 (pneumatic push rod or electric push rod), and the translation push plate 13 is fixedly connected to the lifting slider of the lifting cylinder 15. In this design, the translation cylinder can push the lifting cylinder and the translation push plate to move horizontally, and the lifting cylinder can push the translation push plate to move up and down, so that the translation push plate can be inserted upward into the translation groove or disengaged downward from the translation groove.

[0021] In one embodiment of this application, preferably, a plurality of vertical material distribution slots 201 are provided on the vertical material distribution plate 20 corresponding to each of the magnet receiving slots, and each vertical material distribution slot 201 is respectively provided with a material distribution pushing vertical plate 30. The bottom end of each material distribution pushing vertical plate 30 is fixedly connected to a material distribution pushing horizontal plate 31, and the material distribution pushing horizontal plate 31 is installed on the lifting slider of the material distribution pushing cylinder 32 (pneumatic push rod or electric push rod); thereby, the material distribution pushing vertical plate 30 can be driven to move up and down by the material distribution pushing cylinder 32.

[0022] In one embodiment of this application, preferably, the vertical dividing plate 20 includes a first dividing plate 21 and a second dividing plate 22 arranged along the moving direction of the feeding plate 12. The first dividing plate 21 is provided with a first opening slot 211 corresponding to the magnet receiving slot. The first opening slot 211 penetrates the first dividing plate 21 in the vertical direction. The second dividing plate 22 is provided with an insert block 221 for inserting into the first opening slot 211 on the side near the first dividing plate 21. After the first dividing plate 21 and the second dividing plate 22 are assembled, a vertical dividing groove 201 is formed between the end of the insert block 221 and the first opening slot 211, thereby facilitating the processing and manufacturing of the vertical dividing plate 20. As mentioned above, the width of the magnet 101 is 0.4mm-0.7mm, and the width of the vertical dividing groove 201 is slightly larger than the width of the magnet 101. The vertical dividing plate 20 is set as a split structure to facilitate the processing and formation of the above-mentioned vertical dividing groove 201.

[0023] In one embodiment of this application, preferably, the insert block 221 is further provided with a lifting opening slide groove 222 that extends vertically through the second material distribution plate 20. The lifting opening slide groove 222 is perpendicular to and communicates with the vertical material distribution groove 201. The material distribution pushing vertical plate 30 is inserted in the lifting guide groove 222 and extends to the vertical material distribution groove 201 on the side near the first material distribution plate 21 to push the magnet in the vertical material distribution groove 201 upward. This structure can be designed according to the requirements of the thickness of the material distribution pushing vertical plate 30 and the width of the lifting guide groove 222, so that the material distribution pushing vertical plate 30 has sufficient structural strength and avoids deformation and wear of the material distribution pushing vertical plate 30.

[0024] In one embodiment of this application, preferably, as shown below, Figure 9 , Figure 10 As shown, the insert block 221 also has two parallel and spaced lifting opening slides 222. Each lifting opening slide 222 is equipped with a material distribution and pushing vertical plate 30. The material distribution and pushing vertical plates 30 in the two lifting opening slides 222 move upward synchronously to push the magnet in the vertical material distribution groove 201 upward. That is, the magnet 101 in one vertical material distribution groove 201 is pushed upward synchronously, stably and reliably by the two spaced material distribution and pushing vertical plates 30.

[0025] In one embodiment of this application, preferably, as shown below, Figures 1 to 7As shown, the vertical dividing plate 20 is mounted on the base 41, and the base 41 is provided with a vertical slide rail 42. The vertical dividing plate 20 is provided with a slider 43 adapted to the vertical slide rail 42. The vertical dividing plate 20 is also provided with a connecting vertical hole. The vertical dividing plate 20 is connected to the base 41 through a connecting pin 44 passing through the connecting vertical hole to prevent the vertical dividing plate 20 from detaching from the base 41 upwards. A compression spring 45 is also provided between the vertical dividing plate 20 and the base 41. The bottom end of the compression spring 45 abuts against the upper side of the base 41, and the top end of the compression spring 45 abuts against the lower side of the vertical dividing plate 20, so that the upper side of the vertical dividing plate 20 abuts against the pin cap of the connecting pin 44. This elastic mounting structure of the vertical dividing plate 20 allows the vertical dividing plate 20 to move downwards relative to the base 41 when it is pressed downwards. Specifically, as described above, the magnet 101 in this application is magnetized and has magnetic properties, the magnetic block 23 is a magnet or a ferromagnetic material that can be attracted by a magnet, and other components are made of non-ferromagnetic materials that cannot be attracted by a magnet, such as aluminum alloy. In this embodiment of the application, when the material distribution and pushing vertical plate 30 moves upward, it can push the magnet 101 in the vertical material distribution groove 201 upward, and push the magnet 101 upward until its upper surface is flush with the upper surface of the vertical material distribution plate 20, so that the magnet 101 is still located in the vertical material distribution groove 201 and its bottom is supported by the material distribution and pushing vertical plate 30, thereby ensuring that the magnet 101 will not shake. The robotic arm, capable of adsorbing and moving the magnet 101, moves to the upper side of the vertical material distribution trough 201 and aligns with the magnet 101 within the trough. The robotic arm first moves downwards to contact the upper surface of the vertical material distribution plate 20, causing the upper surface of the magnet 101 to adhere to the robotic arm. Then, it presses down on the vertical material distribution plate 20, causing it to move downwards. Since the bottom of the magnet 101 is supported by the material distribution pusher plate 30, the magnet 101 will not move downwards with the vertical material distribution plate 20, causing the magnet 101 to detach from the vertical material distribution trough 201 of the vertical material distribution plate 20. This ensures accurate positioning of the magnet 101 during transport.

[0026] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and not to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features.
