Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of pressing product feeding devices, and in particular to a feeding device. Background Technology
[0002] Multi-cavity molding dies are a common and efficient mold design structure used in manufacturing fields such as plastic molding, powder metallurgy, ceramic molding, and rubber vulcanization.
[0003] In existing technologies, a material unloading robot is usually used to unload products pressed by a multi-cavity molding die. However, the cavities need to be spaced a certain distance apart. When the material unloading robot picks up the products for unloading, the distance between the products will be relatively large. When the products are removed and automatically loaded onto trays, the density of the products on the trays will be relatively sparse, resulting in low logistics turnover efficiency.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a feeding device to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a feeding device to solve the technical problems existing in the prior art, such as large spacing between products, low density of product tray placement, and low logistics turnover efficiency during feeding.

[0007] The feeding device includes:
[0008] The gripping mechanism includes multiple gripping fingers, the distance between adjacent gripping fingers being adjustable, to grip the product on the unloading device;
[0009] A feeding mechanism, the feeding mechanism including a pusher block, the pusher block being used to push the product between adjacent grippers so that adjacent products located between the grippers are brought closer to each other;
[0010] The direction of movement of the finger clamp intersects with the direction of movement of the push block.
[0011] Furthermore, multiple push blocks are provided, with a push block provided between any two adjacent fingers.
[0012] Furthermore, the pushing mechanism also includes a slide bar, and the plurality of pushing blocks are all mounted on the slide bar in an adjustable position.
[0013] Furthermore, the pushing mechanism also includes multiple horizontal sliders and multiple mounting rods. The multiple push blocks are arranged in one-to-one correspondence with the multiple horizontal sliders and in one-to-one correspondence with the multiple mounting rods. The multiple horizontal sliders are all mounted on the sliding rods in an adjustable position. The mounting rods are connected to the corresponding horizontal sliders and the corresponding push blocks. The mounting rods pass through and are mounted in an adjustable position within the corresponding horizontal sliders.
[0014] Furthermore, the push block is connected to one end of the corresponding mounting rod and is rotatable relative to the corresponding mounting rod.
[0015] Furthermore, the unloading device is a pressing mold, and the unloading device also includes a conveying mechanism. The clamping mechanism can move between the conveying mechanism and the pressing mold. The conveying mechanism is used to receive the product on the clamping mechanism and convey the product to a preset position.
[0016] Furthermore, the feeding device also includes a guiding mechanism, which is height-adjustably mounted on the conveying mechanism. The guiding mechanism can guide the movement of the pusher block to adjust the height of the pusher block relative to the product.
[0017] Furthermore, the guiding mechanism includes a guide member with a guide slope, and the pushing mechanism also includes a roller, which is drivenly connected to the push block. The roller can roll along the extension direction of the guide slope to adjust the height of the push block relative to the product.

[0020] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0021] This utility model provides a feeding device, including a clamping mechanism and a pushing mechanism. The clamping mechanism includes multiple clamping fingers with adjustable distance between adjacent clamping fingers to clamp products on the feeding device. The pushing mechanism includes a pushing block for pushing products between adjacent clamping fingers to bring adjacent products between the clamping fingers closer to each other. The movement direction of the clamping fingers intersects with the movement direction of the pushing block. When clamping products, the pushing block can push products between adjacent clamping fingers, thereby driving adjacent products between the clamping fingers to move closer to each other, thus reducing the gap between adjacent products and concentrating multiple products between adjacent clamping fingers into one group.

It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely for explaining this utility model and not for limiting it. Furthermore, it should be noted that, for ease of description, only the parts related to this utility model are shown in the accompanying drawings, not all of them.
[0030] It should be noted that similar labels and letters in the following figures indicate similar items. Therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it does not need to be further defined and explained in subsequent figures.

[0034] It should be noted that when a component is referred to as "fixed to" or "set on" another component, it can be directly on the other component or it can be located in between the component.
[0035] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0036] This embodiment provides a feeding device that reduces the gap between adjacent products, allowing multiple products between adjacent grippers to be concentrated in one place, increasing the density of automated tray loading, and thus improving logistics turnover efficiency.
[0037] In this embodiment, the feeding device can be a pressing mold, and the type of pressing mold is a multi-cavity pressing mold, which can form multiple products in a single pressing.
[0038] like Figures 1-4 As shown, in this embodiment, the feeding device includes a clamping mechanism 1 and a pushing mechanism 2. The clamping mechanism 1 includes multiple clamping fingers, and the distance between adjacent clamping fingers is adjustable to clamp the product 10 on the feeding device. The pushing mechanism 2 includes a pushing block 211, which is used to push the product 10 between adjacent clamping fingers so that the adjacent products 10 located between the clamping fingers are brought closer to each other. The movement direction of the clamping fingers intersects with the movement direction of the pushing block 211. When clamping the product 10, the pushing block 211 can push the product 10 between adjacent clamping fingers, thereby driving the adjacent products 10 located between the clamping fingers to move closer to each other, thereby reducing the gap between adjacent products 10, so that multiple products 10 between adjacent clamping fingers are concentrated in one place. Then the clamping mechanism 1 clamps multiple products 10, which increases the density of subsequent automated palletizing and thus improves the logistics turnover efficiency.
[0039] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the pusher 211 can push the product 10 between adjacent fingers to reduce the gap between adjacent products 10, drive adjacent products 10 located between the fingers to move closer to each other, or even make contact with each other, so as to further improve the concentration effect of multiple products 10 located between adjacent fingers.
[0040] Of course, to further improve the stability of the feeding device, the movement direction of the gripper finger can be perpendicular to the movement direction of the pusher block 211. Alternatively, in other embodiments, it can be set at other angles to meet actual usage requirements.
[0041] In this embodiment, the finger clamp has a rod-shaped clamping portion, and the push block 211 is at least partially located between the clamping portions of adjacent fingers. The movement direction of the push block 211 is parallel to the length direction of the clamping portion to avoid interference between the push block 211 and the finger clamp during movement.
[0042] It should be noted that the pushing mechanism 2 can be installed on the clamping mechanism 1, or it can be indirectly connected to the clamping mechanism 1 through an existing connection structure, as long as the mutual movement requirements of the pushing mechanism 2 and the clamping mechanism 1 are met. For the sake of describing the feeding device in this embodiment, the following embodiment will use the example of the pushing mechanism 2 being installed on the clamping mechanism 1.
[0043] Furthermore, such as Figures 2-3 As shown, in this embodiment, the clamping mechanism 1 is provided with a first mounting plate 101, and the pushing mechanism 2 is provided with a second mounting plate 201. The second mounting plate 201 can be fixed to the first mounting plate 101. It can be understood that by providing the cooperating first mounting plate 101 and second mounting plate 201, it is convenient to install the pushing mechanism 2 on the clamping mechanism 1.
[0044] To facilitate the installation of the first mounting plate 101 and the second mounting plate 201 and improve their stability, in this embodiment, the first mounting plate 101 and the second mounting plate 201 are respectively provided with multiple threaded holes. Multiple bolts or other fasteners can be inserted and fixed into the corresponding threaded holes, thereby realizing the installation of the first mounting plate 101 and the second mounting plate 201.
[0045] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 As shown, the feeding device also includes a conveying mechanism 3. The clamping mechanism 1 can move between the conveying mechanism 3 and the pressing mold 20. The conveying mechanism 3 is used to receive the product 10 on the clamping mechanism 1 and convey the product 10 to a preset position. In this embodiment, it can be understood that by setting the conveying mechanism 3, after the clamping mechanism 1 removes the product 10 from the pressing mold 20, it can move to the conveying mechanism 3, which facilitates the subsequent transportation of the product 10.
[0046] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the preset position refers to the position on the conveying mechanism 3, such as the pallet on the conveying mechanism 3. By conveying the product 10 onto the pallet, the automated palletizing of the unloading device is realized.
[0047] For the drive of the clamping mechanism 1 moving between the conveying mechanism 3 and the pressing mold 20, an existing drive mechanism can be used to connect to the clamping mechanism 1 to meet the movement requirements of the clamping mechanism 1 between the conveying mechanism 3 and the pressing mold 20. The specific type of drive mechanism can be determined according to the actual usage requirements, and this embodiment does not make specific limitations.
[0048] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, multiple push blocks 211 are provided, with a push block 211 provided between any two adjacent gripping fingers. It can be understood that by providing multiple push blocks 211, it is convenient to push the product 10 between any two adjacent gripping fingers.
[0049] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 As shown, the pushing mechanism 2 also includes a slide bar 208, on which multiple push blocks 211 are adjustablely mounted. It can be understood that by setting the slide bar 208, the installation requirements of multiple push blocks 211 are simultaneously met, and the adjustable mounting of multiple push blocks 211 on the slide bar 208 satisfies the movement requirements of multiple push blocks 211, facilitating the adjustment of the push block 211's position.
[0050] In this embodiment, the length direction of the slide bar 208 is parallel to the movement direction of the gripper finger, which facilitates the adjustment of the position of the push block 211 and the adjacent gripper finger. It can be adjusted and adapted according to the left and right center distance of the mold cavity of different types of pressing molds 20, which facilitates the docking of the push block 211 and the product 10. The left and right center distance of the mold cavity is prior art and will not be described in detail in this embodiment.
[0051] Furthermore, the pushing mechanism 2 also includes multiple horizontal sliders 209 and multiple mounting rods 210. Multiple push blocks 211 are correspondingly arranged with the multiple horizontal sliders 209 and the multiple mounting rods 210. The multiple horizontal sliders 209 are all adjustablely mounted on the slide rod 208. The mounting rods 210 are connected to the corresponding horizontal sliders 209 and the corresponding push blocks 211, and the mounting rods 210 pass through and are adjustablely mounted within the corresponding horizontal sliders 209. Specifically, the movement direction of the push blocks 211 is consistent with the length direction of the corresponding mounting rods 210. The movement of the push blocks 211, through the horizontal sliders 209 and the mounting rods 210, facilitates the movement of the push blocks 211 in the length direction of the slide rod 208 and the length direction of the clamping part, satisfying the movement of the multiple push blocks 211 in multiple directions, thereby ensuring the stability and accuracy of pushing the product 10.
[0052] In this embodiment, one end of the horizontal slider 209 can be connected to the slide rod 208, and the other end can be connected to the corresponding mounting rod 210, so as to realize the indirect connection between the mounting rod 210 and the slide rod 208. The mounting rod 210 and the slide rod 208 are at a certain distance to avoid interference between the mounting rod 210 and the slide rod 208 during the movement, thus achieving stable operation.
[0053] For example, each of the multiple horizontal sliders 209 is provided with a first mounting hole that mates with the slide rod 208. The horizontal slider 209 is sleeved on the slide rod 208 through the first mounting hole. The horizontal slider 209 is also provided with a second mounting hole, which is connected to the first mounting hole. The axial direction of the first mounting hole is perpendicular to the axial direction of the second mounting hole. When it is necessary to adjust the position of the horizontal slider 209, the horizontal slider 209 can be directly driven to move along the length direction of the slide rod 208. After adjustment, fasteners such as bolts are used to pass through the second mounting hole and abut against the side wall of the slide rod 208 in the first mounting hole, thereby fixing the position of the horizontal slider 209 and facilitating the adjustment and fixation of the position of the horizontal slider 209. In this embodiment, the first mounting hole can be a through hole, and the second mounting hole can be a threaded hole, both located at one end of the horizontal slider 209.
[0054] Furthermore, the push block 211 is connected to one end of the corresponding mounting rod 210 and can rotate relative to the corresponding mounting rod 210. It is understood that the push block 211's ability to rotate relative to the corresponding mounting rod 210 allows it to rotate around the mounting rod 210 when the fingers are gripping the product 10. This avoids interference with the gripping actions of adjacent fingers, preventing the product 10 from being clamped securely. When no external force is applied, the push block 211 can return to its original state under its own weight.
[0055] In this embodiment, the push block 211 is connected to one end of the corresponding mounting rod 210, and the other end of the corresponding mounting rod 210 is inserted through and positionably mounted on the other end of the corresponding horizontal slider 209. This allows for greater utilization of the length of the mounting rod 210 for movement and fixation along its length on the horizontal slider 209. It can be adjusted and adapted to different types of pressing molds 20 based on the front-to-back center distance of the cavity, facilitating the docking of the push block 211 with the product 10. The front-to-back center distance of the cavity is existing technology and will not be described further in this embodiment.
[0056] For example, each of the multiple horizontal sliders 209 is provided with a third mounting hole that mates with a corresponding mounting rod 210. The horizontal slider 209 is fitted onto the corresponding mounting rod 210 through the third mounting hole. The horizontal slider 209 is also provided with a fourth mounting hole, which is connected to the third mounting hole. The axial direction of the third mounting hole is perpendicular to the axial direction of the fourth mounting hole. When it is necessary to adjust the position of the mounting rod 210, the mounting rod 210 can be directly driven to move along the length direction of the third mounting hole of the horizontal slider 209. After adjustment, fasteners such as bolts are inserted through the fourth mounting hole and abut against the side wall of the mounting rod 210 inside the third mounting hole, thereby fixing the position of the mounting rod 210 and facilitating the adjustment and fixation of the position of the mounting rod 210. In this embodiment, the third mounting hole can be a through hole, and the fourth mounting hole can be a threaded hole, both located at the other end of the horizontal slider 209.
[0057] Furthermore, it can be conceivable that the horizontal slider 209, the corresponding mounting rod 210, and the corresponding push block 211 form a pushing structure for pushing the product 10 within adjacent gripping fingers. Multiple pushing structures are mounted on the slider 208, and the number of pushing structures is greater than the number of sliders 208. In this embodiment, the number of gripping fingers is greater than the number of pushing structures. (Refer to...) Figures 1-3 It can be seen that there are two pushing structures, namely two push blocks 211 and three clamping fingers. The two push blocks 211 are respectively located between the three clamping fingers to push the product 10 between the three clamping fingers and eliminate the gap between the product 10 between adjacent clamping fingers in the direction of movement of the push blocks 211.
[0058] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the three gripping fingers include a first gripping finger 103, a second gripping finger 104, and a third gripping finger 105 arranged sequentially. Specifically, the second gripping finger 104 is mounted on the first mounting plate 101 of the gripping mechanism 1, meaning that the position of the second gripping finger 104 relative to the first mounting plate 101 remains unchanged. The first gripping finger 103 and the third gripping finger 105 are located on both sides of the second gripping finger 104, and both can move relative to the second gripping finger 104 to adjust their positions relative to the second gripping finger 104, thereby meeting the gripping requirements of the product 10 on the pressing mold 20.
[0059] Furthermore, the gripping mechanism 1 also includes a drive cylinder 102, which is operatively connected to the first gripping finger 103 and the third gripping finger 105, and is used to drive the first gripping finger 103 and the third gripping finger 105 to move closer to or further away from the second gripping finger 104. In this embodiment, the drive cylinder 102 can be a finger cylinder, which includes two fingers, each of which is operatively connected to the first gripping finger 103 and the third gripping finger 105, thereby driving the first gripping finger 103 and the third gripping finger 105 to move synchronously. The specific structure and operation of the finger cylinder are existing technologies and will not be described in detail in this embodiment.
[0060] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 As shown, the unloading device also includes a guiding mechanism 4, which is height-adjustably mounted on the conveying mechanism 3. The guiding mechanism 4 can guide the movement of the push block 211 to adjust the height of the push block 211 relative to the product 10. It can be understood that after the clamping mechanism 1 completes clamping the product 10, it can drive the product 10 and the push block 211 to move horizontally towards the position of the conveying mechanism 3. During the movement, the guiding mechanism 4 guides the movement of the push block 211, causing it to move upwards to adjust the height of the push block 211 relative to the product 10, thus disengaging the push block 211 from contact with the product 10. This ensures that after the clamping mechanism 1 places the product 10, the push block 211 will not touch the product 10 placed on the conveying mechanism 3 during its return.
[0061] For example, the guiding mechanism 4 includes a guide member 401 with a guide slope 4011, and the pushing mechanism 2 includes a roller 202, which is tractively connected to the push block 211. The roller 202 can roll along the extension direction of the guide slope 4011 to adjust the height of the push block 211 relative to the product 10. Specifically, when the clamping mechanism 1 completes clamping the product 10, and moves the product 10 and the pushing mechanism 2 together towards the conveying mechanism 3, the roller 202 first contacts the lower end of the guide slope 4011. Understandably, the guide ramp 4011 can limit the roller 202, allowing the roller 202 to roll along the extension direction of the guide ramp 4011. Since the roller 202 is connected to the push block 211, during the rolling process of the roller 202 along the extension direction of the guide ramp 4011, the roller 202 first contacts the lower end of the guide ramp 4011. During continuous movement, the push block 211 can be raised in height, and the push block 211 disengages from the product 10 held by the clamping mechanism 1, so that when the clamping mechanism 1 returns after placing the product 10, the push block 211 will not touch the product placed on the conveying mechanism 3.
[0062] In this embodiment, as Figure 4 As shown, the guide mechanism 4 also includes a vertical support plate 403 and a horizontal support plate 402. The guide member 401 is connected to the horizontal support plate 402. The height of the vertical support plate 403 relative to the conveying mechanism 3 is adjustable, and the horizontal support plate 402 is fixedly and adjustablely to the vertical support plate 403. Specifically, the horizontal support plate 402 is adjustablely mounted on the vertical support plate 403 along its length direction, and the length direction of the horizontal support plate 402 is parallel to the width direction of the conveying mechanism 3. It can be understood that by setting the vertical support plate 403 and the horizontal support plate 402, the height of the guide member 401 relative to the conveying mechanism 3 can be adjusted, which can meet the clamping requirements of products 10 of different heights. For example, when the height of the product 10 is high, the height of the guide member 401 relative to the conveying mechanism 3 can be adjusted, so that the push block 211 and the clamping mechanism 1 can act on the product 10 at a more central position in the height direction, thus improving stability. Furthermore, the guide member 401 is adjustable in the width direction of the conveying mechanism 3, which can meet the needs of the guide mechanism 4 to cooperate with conveying mechanisms 3 of different sizes. This makes it easier to place the clamping mechanism 1 in the center or near center in the width direction of the conveying mechanism 3, and to place the product 10 in a more central position on the conveying mechanism 3, thus improving the convenience of placing the product 10.
[0063] For example, the horizontal support plate 402 has an elongated hole along its length, and the vertical support plate 403 has a threaded hole at the end that contacts the horizontal support plate 402. Bolts or other fasteners can be passed through the elongated hole in the horizontal support plate 402 and fixed therein, thus connecting the vertical support plate 403 and the horizontal support plate 402. Furthermore, by providing the elongated hole in the horizontal support plate 402, the position of the bolt inserted into the elongated hole along the length of the horizontal support plate 402 (i.e., the length of the elongated hole) is adjustable, thus ensuring that the distance between the guide member 401 and the conveying mechanism 3 is adjustable. In this embodiment, multiple elongated holes are provided on the horizontal support plate 402, multiple threaded holes are provided on the vertical support plate 403, and multiple bolts are provided to improve the stability of the connection between the vertical support plate 403 and the horizontal support plate 402.
[0064] Furthermore, the pushing mechanism 2 also includes a support frame, which comprises two symmetrically arranged support seats 203, each mounted on one end of the roller 202. Specifically, both support seats 203 are connected to the push block 211 in a transmission manner. The two ends of the roller 202 are fixed to the two support seats 203 by nuts. When the roller 202 moves along the guide slope 4011, the roller 202 gradually rises, thereby driving the support seats 203 and the push block 211 to rise. The roller 202 is an existing structure, and its specific structure will not be described in detail in this embodiment.
[0065] Furthermore, the lower end of the guide slope 4011 is located at the end of the guide member 401 away from the horizontal support plate 402. The pushing mechanism 2 also includes a guide sleeve 204, a guide shaft 205, a first connecting support plate 206, and two second connecting support plates 207 connected in sequence. The guide sleeve 204 is connected to the lower part of the support frame, and the slide rod 208 is installed between the two second connecting support plates 207. Specifically, there are two guide shafts 205. Both guide shafts 205 can pass through the second mounting plate 201 and the guide sleeve 204. The two ends of one guide shaft 205 are connected to the first connecting support plate 206 and one of the support seats 203, respectively. The two ends of the other guide shaft 205 are connected to the first connecting support plate 206 and the other support seat 203, respectively. The second mounting plate 201 and the first connecting support plate 206 are spaced apart. After the clamping mechanism 1 completes clamping the product 10, the roller 202 can roll upward along the guide slope 4011 of the guide member 401. Through the guide shaft 205, it drives the first connecting support plate 206, the second connecting support plate 207, the slide bar 208, the horizontal slide block 209, the mounting rod 210, and the push block 211 to rise together. At this time, the push block 211 gradually rises and disengages from the clamped product 10 to avoid the pushing mechanism 2 interfering with the clamping mechanism 1's material release. In other words, the support base 203, the guide sleeve 204, the guide shaft 205, the first connecting support plate 206, the second connecting support plate 207, the slide bar 208, the horizontal slide block 209, and the mounting rod 210 form a stable transmission component. When the clamping mechanism 1 completes clamping the product 10, the roller 202 can roll upward along the guide slope 4011 of the guide member 401, stably driving the push block 211 to move upward together.
[0066] Furthermore, the guide member 401 also includes a guide plane 4012, which is located between the guide slope 4011 and the cross support plate 402. By setting the guide plane 4012, the roller 202 will continue to roll along the guide plane 4012 after rising to the highest point of the guide slope 4011. The height of the push block 211 remains unchanged, which facilitates the continuous movement of the clamping mechanism 1 and allows it to be placed in different positions on the conveying mechanism 3.
[0067] Furthermore, the guiding mechanism 4 also includes a first clamping plate 404, a clamping plate connecting plate 405, and a second clamping plate 406 connected in sequence, with the upright support plate 403 adjustablely mounted on the first clamping plate 404. Specifically, in the width direction of the conveying mechanism 3, the first clamping plate 404 and the second clamping plate 406 are located on both sides of the conveying mechanism 3, and the two ends of the clamping plate connecting plate 405 are detachably connected to one end of the first clamping plate 404 and one end of the second clamping plate 406, respectively. Both the first clamping plate 404 and the second clamping plate 406 are perpendicular to the clamping plate connecting plate 405, which is located at the bottom of the conveying mechanism 3. By setting the first clamping plate 404, the clamping plate connecting plate 405, and the second clamping plate 406, the upright support plate 403 can be installed without damaging the conveying mechanism 3, and the sequentially connected first clamping plate 404, the clamping plate connecting plate 405, and the second clamping plate 406 can form a groove to cooperate with the conveying mechanism 3 located in the groove, thereby further improving the stability of the guiding mechanism 4.
[0068] For example, an elongated hole is provided at the end of the vertical support plate 403 away from the horizontal support plate 402 and along the length of the vertical support plate 403. A threaded hole is provided at the end of the first clamping plate 404 that contacts the vertical support plate 403. Bolts or other fasteners are passed through the elongated hole on the vertical support plate 403 and fixed into the threaded hole on the first clamping plate 404 to achieve the connection between the vertical support plate 403 and the first clamping plate 404. Furthermore, by providing an elongated hole on the first clamping plate 404, the position of the bolt inserted into the first clamping plate 404 is adjustable along its length (i.e., in the height direction), thus achieving adjustable distance between the guide member 401 and the conveying mechanism 3. In this embodiment, multiple elongated holes are provided on the vertical support plate 403, multiple threaded holes are provided on the first clamping plate 404, and multiple bolts are provided to improve the stability of the connection between the first clamping plate 404 and the vertical support plate 403.
[0069] In this embodiment, limiting plates are provided at the other end of the first card plate 404 and the other end of the second card plate 406. In other words, limiting plates are provided at the end of the first card plate 404 away from the card plate connecting plate 405 and the end of the second card plate 406 away from the card plate connecting plate 405. Both limiting plates are located on the upper part of the conveying mechanism 3. The two limiting plates cooperate with the card plate connecting plate 405 to clamp the conveying mechanism 3, which further improves the stability of the guiding mechanism 4 and achieves stable guidance of the push block 211.
[0070] In this embodiment, the conveying mechanism 3 can be a belt conveyor, and both limiting plates are located above the frame of the belt conveyor, so they will not interfere with the normal feeding of the clamping mechanism 1.
[0071] In this embodiment, taking the clamping mechanism 1 as an example, which includes a first clamping finger 103, a second clamping finger 104, and a third clamping finger 105 arranged sequentially, the working process of the feeding device is as follows:
[0072] After the product 10 is pressed and demolded, the clamping mechanism 1 drives the pushing mechanism 2, which is mounted on the clamping mechanism 1, to move horizontally toward the position of the product 10 on the pressing mold 20. During the movement, the two pushing blocks 211 push the product 10 between the first clamping finger 103 and the second clamping finger 104 and the product 10 between the second clamping finger 104 and the third clamping finger 105, respectively, until there is no gap between the adjacent products 10 between the first clamping finger 103 and the second clamping finger 104 and the adjacent products 10 between the second clamping finger 104 and the third clamping finger 105 in the direction of movement of the pushing block 211.
[0073] Then, the drive cylinder 102 of the clamping mechanism 1 is activated, causing the first clamping finger 103 and the third clamping finger 105 to move toward the direction close to the second clamping finger 104, so as to clamp the product 10 adjacent between the first clamping finger 103 and the second clamping finger 104 and the product 10 adjacent between the second clamping finger 104 and the third clamping finger 105.
[0074] After clamping product 10, clamping mechanism 1 drives pushing mechanism 2 to move horizontally toward conveying mechanism 3. During the movement, roller 202 on pushing mechanism 2 rolls up along guide slope 4011, thereby driving push block 211 in pushing mechanism 2 to rise. At this time, push block 211 gradually rises and disengages from the clamped product 10. Clamping mechanism 1 and pushing mechanism 2 continue to move. After roller 202 rises to the highest point of guide slope 4011, it will continue to roll along guide plane 4012. At this time, the height of push block 211 remains unchanged. When clamping mechanism 1 drives pushing mechanism 2 to reach the preset position, drive cylinder 102 drives the first clamping finger 103 and the third clamping finger 105 to move away from the second clamping finger 104 and put down the clamped product 10. At this time, the unloading device completes the unloading work.
[0075] After the material feeding is completed, the clamping mechanism 1 drives the pushing mechanism 2 to move towards the pressing mold 20 and disengage from the conveying mechanism 3. During the movement, the roller 202 will roll down along the guide slope 4011, causing the push block 211 to gradually descend to its original height before being lifted, waiting for the next round of material feeding.
