Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If manual assembly methods are used for magnets in motor rotors, then ease of operation is maintained, but productivity is significantly reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The magnet plate assembly is designed to be self-servicing through the automatic separation mechanism. The pushing block automatically pushes individual magnet rows through the discharge port and separates them from the plate without requiring manual intervention for each magnet, enabling the system to serve itself in the separation process.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent replaces manual mechanical operations with an automated mechanical system. The pushing block, driven by a pushing mechanism, substitutes human hands for automatically pushing and separating magnet rows from the magnet plate assembly through the discharge port.
2Extent of automation
If semi-automatic assembling methods are used, then some automation is achieved, but productivity cannot be improved significantly due to continuous manual participation
Solution Approach 1:
The magnet plate assembly is segmented into individual magnet rows that can be separately pushed through the discharge port. The pushing block separates each magnet row from the plate individually, transforming a monolithic manual operation into segmented automated steps that can be continuously processed.
Solution Approach 2:
The magnet plate assembly is pre-organized with magnet rows arranged in a structured format with spacing, allowing the pushing mechanism to automatically separate and eject them in sequence without requiring real-time manual arrangement or positioning during the assembly process.
3Device complexity
If manual separation of magnets from magnet plate assembly is performed, then device complexity is low, but loss of time is significant
Solution Approach 1:
The pushing block extracts individual magnet rows from the magnet plate assembly by pushing them through the discharge port. This extraction mechanism removes magnets from the plate in a systematic automated manner, eliminating the time-consuming manual separation process while adding only a simple pushing mechanism to the system.

AI summary
The magnetic steel loading and separating device is used for separating magnetic steel strips and large plastic spacers of a magnetic steel plate, and includes a material case, a material pushing mechanism and a material separating mechanism. The material case includes a case body for accommodating the magnetic steel plate, and a discharge port is formed in a side wall of the case body. The material pushing mechanism is used for successively pushing the magnetic steel strips and the large plastic spacers of the magnetic steel plate out of the material case via the discharge port, wherein a discharge position and a take-up position that are provided for the magnetic steel strip are formed outside the material case. The material separating mechanism includes a magnetic steel pushing block that reciprocates between the discharge position and the take-up position of the magnetic steel strip.
