The tray will be carried on the ejector rod 131 after being transferred to the nail inserting station. Along with the jacking of ejector pin 131, the tray will also promote thereupon to conveniently fix a position the battery in the tray. The number of the first guide posts 132 is two, and the two first guide posts are respectively disposed at two ends of the bottom rod 134. The first driving member 135 may be a cylinder, and a cylinder body thereof may be fixed to the first connecting rod 133. When the driving end of the first driving member 135 extends, the first guide post 132 is driven to slide along the vertical direction relative to the first connecting rod 133, so as to drive the top rod 131 to lift.

In order to reduce the friction between the first guide post 132 and the first link 133, a linear bearing (not shown) is further fixedly disposed on the first link 133, and the first guide post 132 is disposed through the linear bearing. In addition, a buffer 136 is further installed on the first link 133 to improve stability when the lift rod 131 is lifted.

The battery positioning mechanism 200 is used for positioning the batteries at the nail insertion station. Thus, when the formed nail is inserted into the liquid filling opening of the battery, the position of the battery can be kept fixed, and the deviation of the position of the inserted nail caused by the position deviation of the battery can be effectively avoided.

Referring to fig. 4 to fig. 6, in the present embodiment, the battery positioning mechanism 200 includes a battery positioning component 210 and a battery reinforcing component 220. The battery positioning assembly 210 includes a second driving member 211 and a plurality of pressing strips 212 arranged at intervals along the transmission direction of the battery feeding mechanism 100, and the second driving member 211 can drive the pressing strips 212 to move up and down so as to release or press the battery at the pin inserting station.

The bead 212 is elongated and generally perpendicular to the transfer direction. As shown in fig. 4, the bead 212 extends in a direction perpendicular to the plane of the drawing sheet. When the second driving member 211 drives the pressing bars 212 to descend, each pressing bar 212 presses a row of batteries simultaneously. Specifically, the battery positioning assembly 210 further includes two positioning bottom plates 213 located at two opposite sides of the battery feeding mechanism 100, i.e., two ends of the roller 110, and two second driving members 211 are disposed on each positioning bottom plate 213 at intervals along the above-mentioned transmission direction. Also, both ends of each compression bar 212 are connected with the second driving parts 211 of the two positioning base plates 213, respectively.

Further, the battery reinforcing assembly 220 includes a third driving member 221 and a reinforcing bar 222, the reinforcing bar 222 is located between two adjacent pressing bars 212, a plurality of slots 2221 are formed on the reinforcing bar 222, and the third driving member 221 can drive the reinforcing bar 222 to move up and down, so that the plurality of batteries at the nail inserting station are respectively clamped into the plurality of slots 2221.

The reinforcing strip 222 is also in the shape of a strip and extends in the same direction as the bead 212. Since the number of the pressing bars 212 is two in the present embodiment, the number of the reinforcing bars 222 is one. The plurality of slots 2221 on the reinforcing bar 222 are distributed at equal intervals, and the distance between two adjacent slots 2221 is the same as the width of the battery, so that each slot 2221 can just clamp the battery, and the slots 2221 can limit the movement of the battery. The reinforcing strip 222 cooperates with the bead 212 to better limit the battery.

Specifically, the battery reinforcing assembly 220 further includes a second guide pillar 223, a second connecting plate 224 and a third connecting plate 225. The second guide post 223 penetrates through the positioning base plate 213, and two ends of the second guide post are fixed to the second connecting plate 224 and the third connecting plate 225, respectively. The second connecting plate 224 and the third connecting plate 225 are two and located on two opposite sides of the battery feeding mechanism 100. Two ends of the reinforcing bar 222 are respectively mounted on the two second connecting plates 224, and a driving end of the third driving member 221 is fixedly connected to the third connecting plate 225, and can drive the third connecting plate 225, the second connecting plate 224 and the second guide post 223 to integrally lift, so as to drive the reinforcing bar 222 to lift.

In order to better limit the battery, the two sides of the reinforcing strip 222 are respectively provided with a limiting strip 226, and the limiting strip 226 is located on the side of the pressing strip 212 opposite to the reinforcing strip 222. Further, both ends of the stopper bar 226 are also mounted on the two second connecting plates 224, respectively. Similarly, the spacing bars 226 may also be provided with spacing grooves (not shown) at equal intervals. When the reinforcing bar 222 descends and each of the catching grooves 2221 catches the battery, the catching groove of each of the catching bars 226 also catches the battery.

The second driving member 211 and the third driving member 221 may be cylinders, and the third driving member 221 may be fixed on the positioning bottom plate 213. In order to reduce the friction force, a linear bearing (not shown) is further fixedly disposed on the positioning base plate 213, and the second guide post 223 is inserted into the linear bearing.

In the present embodiment in particular, the distance between the two beads 212 is adjustable in the transfer direction. Thus, the distance between the two pressing strips 212 can be adjusted according to the type of the battery and the arrangement mode of the battery in the tray, so that the battery positioning assembly 210 can perform pressing work according to different working conditions.

Specifically, each positioning bottom plate 213 is provided with a groove (not shown) extending along the transmission direction, and the two second driving members 211 on each positioning bottom plate 213 are disposed in the grooves through sliders, so that the second driving members 211 can slide along the transmission direction.

The feeding mechanism 300 is used for providing the formed nails for the nail inserting mechanism 400 to pick. Referring to fig. 7, the feeding mechanism 300 includes a bin 310, a vibration plate 320, a feeding assembly 330 and a positioning assembly 340.

The magazine 310 is used to store the formation staples, and can feed the stored formation staples to the vibration plate 320. A material channel (not shown) is arranged above the bin 310, and a plurality of formed nails can be poured into the bin 310 at one time. The magazine 310 may supply formation pins to the vibratory pan 320 as needed, and may be capable of controlling the number of formation pins falling into the vibratory pan 320.

The vibratory pan 320 is generally located below the silo 310. Specifically, in this embodiment, the storage bin 310 is funnel-shaped, and a blanking port (not shown) is formed at the bottom of the storage bin, the formation nails in the storage bin 310 can fall into the vibration tray 320 through the blanking port under the action of gravity, the blanking port is provided with a baffle 311, and the baffle 311 can open or close the blanking port. The baffle 311 can be driven by a cylinder, a motor, etc., and the number of the formation nails falling into the vibration plate 320 can be controlled by the baffle 311.

The vibrating plate 320 generally has a vibrating plate and a discharge passage (not shown). Along with the vibration of vibration dish 320, a plurality of formation nails that fall onto the vibration board can get into discharge passage in proper order. The width of the discharge channel is generally only capable of accommodating one formed nail. Therefore, a plurality of formed nails can only enter the discharging channel in sequence and are arranged in sequence along the extending direction of the discharging channel.

The formed nails which are preliminarily arranged in the discharging channel can be conveyed to the positioning assembly 340 by the feeding assembly 330 for arrangement. The positioning assembly 340 is located at the material taking station, and a plurality of arranged formed nails can be conveniently acquired by the nail inserting mechanism 400.

Referring to fig. 8 to 10, in the present embodiment, the feeding assembly 330 includes a vertical plate 331, a feeding pipe 332, a blowing pipe 333, a staple separating block 334, and a fourth driving member 335.

The vertical plates 331 serve as supports and are fixedly connected to the base of the vibration plate 320 to maintain the relative positions of the feeding unit 330 and the vibration plate 320 stable. The number of the feeding pipes 332 and the number of the blowing pipes 333 are two, and the feeding pipes and the blowing pipes are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence manner. The feeding pipe 332 and the blowing pipe 333 may be hoses such as rubber pipes or hard pipes such as plastic pipes.

Each feeding tube 332 has a feeding port 3321 and a discharging port (not shown), the feeding ports 3321 of the two feeding tubes 332 are spaced along the first direction, and the discharging ports extend to the positioning assembly 340. The formed nails in the discharge channel of the vibrating plate 320 can enter the feeding pipe 332 through the feed port 3321 and be discharged to the positioning assembly 340 through the discharge port. Here, the first direction refers to the up-down direction shown in fig. 8.

Each of the blowpipes 333 has an air outlet (not shown). The insufflation tube 333 may be in communication with an external source of compressed air to enable the flow of air to be blown from within the air outlet. The outlet of the gas blowing pipe 333 is disposed opposite to the inlet 3321 of the corresponding feeding pipe 332. However, the outlet port does not directly communicate with the inlet port 3321.

The staple blocks 334 are slidably mounted to the risers 331 in a first direction. Specifically, a guide rail 338 extending along the first direction is arranged on the vertical plate 331, a cover plate 339 is arranged on the guide rail 338, and the cover plate 339 is fixedly connected with the staple separating block 334. The nail separating block 334 is provided with a first feeding port 3341 and a second feeding port 3342 which are arranged at intervals along a first direction. The first feeding port 3341 and the second feeding port 3342 have the same structure and both penetrate through the nail separating block 334. Also, both the first inlet 3341 and the second inlet 3342 can receive formed nails. The radial dimensions of the first inlet port 3341 and the second inlet port 3342 generally correspond to the radial dimensions of the discharge channel, allowing only one formed nail to pass through at a time.

The fourth driver 335 may be a cylinder. Moreover, the fourth driving member 335 can drive the staple separating block 334 to move along the first direction, and make the first feeding port 3341 and the second feeding port 3342 alternately butt against the discharging channel. First pan feeding mouth 3341 docks with discharging channel, and the formation in the discharging channel is followed closely just can get into in first pan feeding mouth 3341, and when second pan feeding mouth 3342 and discharging channel dock, the formation in the discharging channel is followed closely just can get into in second pan feeding mouth 3342.

Further, when one of the first feeding port 3341 and the second feeding port 3342 is in butt joint with the discharging channel, the other one connects the air outlet of one of the air blowing pipes 333 with the corresponding feeding port 3321 of the feeding pipe 332. Specifically, the distance between the first feeding port 3341 and the second feeding port 3342 is equal to the distance between the discharging channel and the feeding port 3321 in the first direction.

When the first feeding port 3341 is in butt joint with the discharging channel, the second feeding port 3342 communicates the blowing pipe 333 and the feeding pipe 332 below. At this point, the formed nails in the discharge channel can enter the first inlet port 3341. The lower blowing pipe 333 can blow an air flow and blow the formed nails in the second feeding port 3342 to the positioning assembly 340 through the lower feeding pipe 332; when the second inlet 3342 is connected to the outlet channel, the first inlet 3341 is connected to the blowing pipe 333 and the feeding pipe 332. At this point, the formed nails in the exit channel can enter the second inlet 3342. The upper blowing tube 333 blows air to blow the formed nails in the first feeding port 3341 to the positioning assembly 340 through the upper feeding tube 332.

Therefore, the first feeding port 3341 and the second feeding port 3342 can alternately feed, so that the feeding assembly 330 can feed the formed nails at the same time, thereby improving the efficiency.

Further, in this embodiment, the feeding assembly 330 further includes two ejector plates 336 and a fifth driving member 337 in transmission connection with the two ejector plates 336, the two gas blowing pipes 333 are respectively installed on the two ejector plates 336, and the fifth driving member 337 can drive the ejector plates 336 to move, so that gas outlets of the gas blowing pipes 333 are close to or far away from the corresponding feeding ports 3321 of the feeding pipes 332.

The nail separating block 334 slides in the gap between the air outlet of the air blowing pipe 333 and the feeding hole 3321. In the sliding process of the nail separating block 334, the ejector plate 336 can be driven by the fifth driving member 337 and the air outlet is driven to be far away from the feeding port 3321, so that the moving space of the nail separating block 334 is enlarged and interference is avoided. When feeding, the fifth driving member 337 drives the ejector plate 336 and drives the air outlet to be closer to the feeding port 3321 until the nail separating block 334 is clamped, thereby ensuring the air tightness of the blowing pipeline.

In addition, photoelectric detection heads (not shown) may be disposed on two sides of the first feeding port 3341 and the second feeding port 3342, respectively, for detecting whether the formed nails are successfully fed to the corresponding feeding ports.

Referring to fig. 11, in the present embodiment, the positioning assembly 340 includes a bracket 341, a nail seat 342, a fixing plate 343, a sixth driving member 344, and a seventh driving member 345.

The bracket 341 is used for supporting, and the nail seat 342, the fixing plate 343, the sixth driving member 344 and the seventh driving member 345 are all mounted on the bracket 341. The nail seat 342 is generally in the form of a block structure having a plurality of alignment sites formed thereon for aligning the nails. In particular, a channel-like structure may be formed at each of the locations to accommodate formation of the staples. A fixed plate 343 is slidably mounted to the frame 341 and the ends of the two feed tubes 332 distal from the feed assembly 330 are mounted to the fixed plate 343. The sixth driving member 344 is drivingly connected to the fixing plate 343 and is capable of driving the fixing plate 343 toward or away from the nail seat 342. The seventh driving member 345 is in transmission connection with the nail seat 342 and can drive the nail seat 342 to ascend and descend. Specifically, the nail seat 342 is sleeved on a lifting rod (not shown), and the lifting rod is fixed to the bracket 341 and extends in the vertical direction.

When feeding the formed nails, the sixth driving element 344 pushes the fixing plate 343 to the nail seat 342 first, so that the discharge hole of the feeding pipe 332 moves to the upper part of the arrangement position; then, the seventh driving member 345 lifts the pin holder 342 to a position right below the feeding tube 332, so that the discharge port of the feeding tube 332 is aligned with the arrangement position of the pin holder 342. In this way, the formation nails blown out by the feeding pipe 332 fall into the arrangement positions of the nail seat 342 to realize arrangement. After the feeding is completed, the sixth driving element 344 and the seventh driving element 345 respectively drive the fixing plate 343 and the nail seat 342 to return to the original positions, so as to ensure that the nail inserting mechanism 400 has enough operating space at the material taking station.
