According to the technical scheme, the storage seats 11 are provided with the storage grooves 12 which extend transversely and are arranged at intervals longitudinally so as to transversely extend and arrange the strip-shaped magnetic blocks which need to be vertically arranged, the magnetic blocks can be laterally arranged in an adsorption manner, on the basis of a certain material accommodating length, the strip-shaped magnetic blocks which are laterally arranged in an adsorption manner can accommodate more magnetic blocks compared with the strip-shaped magnetic blocks which are arranged at two ends in an adsorption manner so as to increase the storage quantity, and the arrangement of the strip-shaped magnetic blocks in the horizontal direction is vertical, so that the magnetic blocks do not need to be adjusted in direction when being taken, and the arrangement of an adjusting device is reduced so as to reduce the space needed by the loading structure 100. The magnetic blocks are arranged in the material storage tank 12, at least one end of each magnetic block is arranged in an opening, so that magnetic stripes formed by the plurality of magnetic blocks are placed in the material storage tank 12 conveniently, and the magnetic stripes cannot deflect and clamp materials with the material storage tank 12 in a butt mode when moving in the material storage tank 12. The transverse pushing device 2 is arranged in cooperation with the storage tank 12 and used for pushing the magnetic blocks in the storage tank 12 to move towards the discharge end of the storage tank 12 so as to perform a feeding process. Because the magnetic blocks are magnetic, magnetic attraction force exists between the magnetic blocks connected with each other, when one magnetic block reaches the discharge end of the material storage tank 12 and needs to be separated from the subsequent magnetic block to carry out the next working procedure, the longitudinal material pushing device 3 is arranged to drive the magnetic block to move longitudinally along the lateral direction of the material storage tank 12, so that the magnetic block and the magnetic strip in the material storage tank 12 are staggered to complete separation, and the mode is simple in structure and good in effect.

Through the mode setting loading attachment 4, the difficult card material phenomenon that appears in the time of the storage is in large quantity and operation, has reduced the time of reloading and maintenance, has promoted production efficiency and has practiced thrift the cost, can satisfy the mass production demand.

Specifically, the feeding device 4 includes a transfer mechanism 41 and a feeding mechanism 42, the transfer mechanism 41 has a plurality of first picking portions 411 for picking up a plurality of magnetic blocks located at a plurality of material preparation positions correspondingly, the plurality of first picking portions 411 have a transfer moving stroke moving from the material preparation positions to the feeding positions and have a turning moving stroke around a horizontal axis, and the feeding positions are spaced from the material preparation positions; the feeding mechanism 42 has a plurality of second picking portions 421 for picking a plurality of magnetic blocks at a plurality of loading positions correspondingly, and the plurality of second picking portions 421 have a moving stroke from the loading position to the assembly position. After the magnetic blocks are separated from the magnetic strips in the storage tank 12, the magnetic blocks are located in the material preparation position, the magnetic blocks and the magnetic strips in the storage tank 12 only have longitudinal position deviation and are directly made to move towards the assembly station, the problem that the magnetic blocks are deviated and even drop due to attraction of the magnetic strips in the storage tank 12 can exist, the problem that the magnetic blocks are deviated and even damaged due to collision with equipment in the moving process when the magnetic blocks are too close to the equipment can also exist, and the stability of the equipment is affected, so that the transfer mechanism 41 is arranged, the magnetic blocks located in the material preparation position are picked up through the first picking part 411 of the transfer mechanism 41, the magnetic blocks are driven by the first picking part 411 to move to the material loading position spaced from the material preparation position, and the possible problems are avoided. It should be noted that, due to the characteristics of the strip-shaped magnetic blocks, when the magnetic blocks are connected into a magnetic strip by adsorption, the magnetic poles of two adjacent magnetic blocks in the vertical direction are opposite, but the magnetic poles are required to be kept in the same direction when the magnetic blocks are mounted on a product, so that the first picking part 411 is used for turning over the magnetic blocks once to ensure that the magnetic poles of the picked magnetic blocks are uniform, and the subsequent station operation is facilitated. After first portion 411 of picking up accomplished upset adjustment magnetic pole, first portion 411 of picking up stops the material loading position, at this moment feed mechanism 42 removes to the material loading position, through second portion 421 of picking up picks up and is located the magnetic path on the first portion 411 of picking up, the rethread the removal that the second portion 421 of picking up drives this magnetic path certainly the material loading position removes to the equipment station is in order to wait for operation on next step, wholly realizes that the magnetic path is followed the position of prepareeing material extremely the removal of equipment station is accomplished the task of material loading structure 100.

Further, the transfer mechanism 41 includes a first mounting portion 412 and a plurality of first driving components 413, the first mounting portion 412 has a movable stroke moving from the material preparing position to the material loading position, and the first picking portion 411 is rotatably mounted on the first mounting portion 412; a plurality of first driving components 413 are mounted on the first mounting portion 412, and one of the first driving components 413 is used for driving one of the first pick-up portions 411 to turn around a horizontal axis.
