The first driving member 11 is a plate cylinder, and the second driving member 18 is a finger cylinder having two jaws. Specifically, the workpiece is jacked to a predetermined height (position) by a jacking mechanism, which belongs to the prior art, and is not described herein again. It is common in the prior art to substantially limit the position of the components by either the magazine of the magazine 5 or by first placing the sheet-like/sheet-like components in the component magazine 6 and then placing the component magazine 6 in the magazine. In this way, certain errors in the position of the elements may have an effect on the quality of the assembled product.

Thereby ensuring that the elements are in one position each time the material is fed, and greatly reducing errors. And, after clamping component 4 location clamping element, jacking subassembly 1 descends for an uppermost piece of component is unsettled, makes things convenient for the mechanical finger to carry out centre gripping or the sucking disc adsorbs, has fine practical meaning.

Preferably, the first direction is the direction in which the positioning assembly 3 faces the clamping assembly 4, and the second direction is the direction in which the two clamping members 14 approach or move away from each other. The first direction is substantially perpendicular to the second direction. Specifically, the first direction and the second direction are two directions perpendicular to each other on the same horizontal plane.

As shown in fig. 2 and 7, in an alternative embodiment of the present invention based on the above-mentioned embodiments, the component box 6 is composed of an upper part and a lower part, and the inner diameter of the lower part is smaller than that of the upper part.

The feeding device also comprises a detection assembly for detecting the sheet-like element. The detecting component is disposed on the first supporting seat 10 and/or the second supporting seat 21. The detecting assembly comprises a first detecting element 15 arranged on the clamping element 14 and a second detecting element 17 arranged on the first supporting seat 10 and/or the second supporting seat 21. The second sensing member 17 has a height lower than that of the first sensing member 15.

Preferably, the second detecting member 17 is disposed on the second support base 21. The first detecting member 15 is provided on the clamping member 14, corresponding to the indirect mounting on the second supporting base 21, so that the positional relationship between the first detecting member 15 and the second detecting member 17 is ensured. Specifically, the first detecting member 15 is a correlation type photoelectric sensor, and the emitting end and the receiving end are respectively disposed on the two clamping members. The second detector 17 is a reflective photoelectric sensor. When the jacking mechanism drives the element to ascend, the ascending speed is reduced when the jacking mechanism ascends to the position of the second detection piece 17, and when the jacking mechanism continuously ascends to the position of the first detection piece 15, the jacking mechanism stops, so that the position of the element can be well ensured. The second driving member 18 drives the two clamping members 14 to approach each other to clamp the uppermost component, and then the jacking assembly 1 descends, so that the rest of the components descend to a height which cannot be detected by the second detecting member 17, and therefore the uppermost component is conveniently clamped or adsorbed by the manipulator. Specifically, the first detection piece 15 is provided at a position on the clamping piece 14 at the same height as the third abutment surface.

As shown in fig. 4 to 6, in an alternative embodiment, the first positioning member 12 is provided with a first abutment surface for abutment against the sheet element. The second positioning member 16 is provided with a second abutment surface for abutment against the sheet element. The clamping piece 14 is provided with a third abutment surface for abutment against the sheet-like element. The first and second abutment surfaces are both higher (height of the cross-section) than the third abutment surface.

It will be appreciated that the first and second locating members 12, 16 locate the components from a first direction. The two clamping members 14 clamp the element from the second direction. The height range of the first abutting surface and the second abutting surface for positioning is larger than the height of the third abutting surface for clamping (the third abutting surface is located in the height range of the first abutting surface and the second abutting surface), so that the element can be positioned in two directions, the clamped element is ensured, and the position is in the preset position, and the precision is ensured.

Preferably, the height of the first abutment surface is 2 to 4 sheet elements thick. The height of the second abutting surface is larger than that of the first abutting surface. The height of the third abutting surface is 1 sheet element.

In an alternative embodiment, as shown in fig. 6, the clamping assembly 4 further comprises a step seat 22 arranged on the second driving member 18. The step seat 22 has a first step surface for mounting the second detecting member 17 and a second step surface for mounting the second positioning member 16. The first step surface is lower than the second step surface.

Specifically, the second positioning element 16 at least needs to abut against the uppermost element. The second detector 17 is used to detect whether the element is lowered or raised to a certain height. Therefore, the height of the second detection member 17 is to be at or lower than the height of the second abutment surface. Based on the stepped second positioning member 16, the second positioning member 16 and the second detecting member 17 can be relatively fixed together by the step seat 22. To ensure the position relationship of the two.

In an alternative embodiment, as shown in fig. 4 to 6, the second detecting member 17 and the second positioning member 16 are both disposed on the second driving member 18. The second positioning element 16 is located above the second detecting element 17 and extends from above the second detecting element 17 to a side of the second detecting element 17 facing the storage chute. The middle of the second positioning member 16 is provided with a first detecting groove for passing the detecting light of the second detecting member 17. The second positioning member 16 has a stepped cross-section. The portion provided with the second abutment surface is lower than the portion disposed on the second driver 18.

Specifically, the second detecting member 17 and the second positioning member 16 are disposed on the side of the finger cylinder, not on the finger, and thus are not driven by the finger cylinder. In this embodiment, the detection light of the second detection member 17 and the second contact surface of the second positioning member 16 are at the same height. That is, the height of the second detecting member 17 and the portion of the second positioning member 16 provided with the second abutment surface are on the same horizontal plane. The second abutment is closer to the magazine than the second detector 17. In order that the second detecting member 17 can detect the component, a first detecting groove through which the detection light of the second detecting member 17 passes is provided on the second positioning member 16. In order to save space, the second positioning element 16 extends upward from the second detecting element 17 toward one side of the storage tank, and then extends toward the second detecting element 17 to cover the upper side of the second detecting element 17, so as to be disposed on the second driving element 18, thereby forming a step-shaped second positioning element 16.

In an alternative embodiment, as shown in fig. 4 to 6, the clamping piece 14 is provided with an abutment projection on the side facing the magazine. The third abutting surface is arranged on the abutting bulge. The abutting projection is provided with a second detection groove for the detection light of the first detection piece 15 to pass through. The upper surface of the clamping member 14 is provided with a mounting groove for mounting the first sensing member 15. The second detection groove is communicated with the mounting groove. The detection light of the first detection member 15 is at least partially within the height range of the third abutment surface. The detection light of the second detector 17 is located within the height range of the second contact surface.

In particular, since the clamping member 14 is used to clamp one element at a time. Thus, the third clamping surface is elongated and has a relatively small thickness. In order to provide a certain strength to the clamping member 14, the main body of the clamping member 14 needs to have a certain cross-sectional area to avoid deformation. To provide the third abutment surface, a projection is provided on the side of the clamping element 14 facing the magazine, on which projection the third abutment surface is provided. In order to ensure that the element stops at the position where it rises to the third abutment surface, the detection light of the first detector 15 and the third abutment surface are set at the same height. That is, a mounting groove for mounting the first detecting member 15 is provided on the clamping member 14, and then a second detecting groove for communicating the abutting projection and the mounting groove is provided, thereby ensuring that the detecting light of the first detecting member 15 and the second abutting surface are located at the same height. The accuracy of positioning is ensured, and the method has good practical significance.

It should be noted that the second detecting member 17 and the second positioning member 16 are both disposed on the upper surface of the second driving member 18. Therefore, the height of the detection light of the second detection piece 17 and the second abutment surface of the second driving piece 18 is higher than that of the finger of the second driving piece 18. In order to ensure that the third clamping surface of the clamping part 14 is located within the height of the second clamping surface, the clamping part 14 extends upwards from the second drive element 18 and then to the side of the magazine in the second direction, so as to form a 7-shaped configuration.

In an alternative embodiment, as shown in fig. 5 and 6, the first retainer 12 is provided with an abutment step at its end. The abutment step is located above the sheet-like element when the sheet-like element is at the normal feeding height. Specifically, the end of the first positioning member 12 is provided with a step to prevent the sheet member from being lifted.

In an alternative embodiment, as shown in fig. 5 and 6, the positioning assembly 3 further comprises a third positioning member 13. The third positioning member 13 is lower than the first positioning member 12. The end surface of the third positioning member 13 is a plane. The first positioning member 12 and the third positioning member 13 are both rod-shaped structures. The second positioning member 16 has a first detection groove formed in the middle thereof, and thus the second contact surfaces are end surfaces on both left and right sides of the first detection groove. In order to be able to balance the components under force, a third positioning element 13 is provided.

As shown in fig. 2, 3 and 4, in an alternative embodiment, the magazine assembly 2 includes a material supply base 9, a third driving member 8 disposed on the material supply base 9, and a material turntable 7 disposed on the third driving member 8. The third driving member 8 is used for driving the material turntable 7 to rotate. The material seats 5 are multiple and are circumferentially arranged on the material turntable 7. The material ejecting through hole is arranged on the material turntable 7. The second support is disposed on the feeding base 9. The clamping assembly 4 further includes a fourth driving member 20 disposed on the second supporting seat 21. And a third support seat 19 disposed on the fourth driver 20. The second driving member 18 is disposed on the third supporting seat 19. The fourth driving member 20 is used for driving the third supporting seat 19 to move close to or away from the storage tank.

In particular, the third driving member 8 drives the material rotating disc 7 to rotate with the animal material seat 5 and the component box 6. In order to prevent the component magazine 6 from colliding with the positioning assembly 3 or the clamping assembly 4 during rotation, the clamping assembly 4 is provided with a structure that is closer to or farther from the component magazine 6. Namely, a third support seat 19 slidably disposed on the second support seat 21, and a fourth driving member 20 for driving the third support seat 19 to slide. The fourth driver 20 is a telescopic cylinder. When the material carousel did not rotate, fourth drive piece drive third supporting seat was close to the stock chest to make the second setting element can be in predetermined position, thereby cooperate with the third setting element, in order to realize the location on the first direction.
