When the motor drives the shaft to rotate forward or reverse, the conveyor belt will drive the first tray 13 to move in the positive or negative direction of the X-axis. The conveyor belt is located below the upper bin 11. The first tray 13 on the loading bin 11 will fall on the conveyor belt, and will be transported to the marking position through the conveyor belt.

When the transmission rod rotates, the position of the transmission rod relative to the motor does not change. When the transmission rod is driven by the motor to rotate clockwise or counterclockwise, the transmission block will move in the axial direction relative to the transmission rod through the thread, thereby driving the push rod and the jacking cylinder connected to it in the X-axis direction, so as to remove the first material The disk 13 is pushed to the marking position, and at this time, the marking mechanism 2 can perform a marking operation on the cartridges on the first material disk 13 .

The transportation device 4 also includes a positioning mechanism 45, which is installed at the marking position. The positioning mechanism 45 can be an air cylinder, and the moving end of the air cylinder can be extended and retracted along the Y-axis direction to realize the clamping of the first material tray 13. . This ensures the accuracy when the marking mechanism 2 performs information calibration on the cartridges on the first material tray 13 , and avoids information calibration errors caused by the shaking or movement of the first material tray 13 . After the marking mechanism 2 completes the marking of the cartridge, the first moving mechanism 44 moves the marked first tray 13 out of the marking position and moves the first tray 13 to the third conveying assembly 43 . In this way, it is possible to move the different first trays 13 in or out to the marking position.

For example, the first conveying assembly 41 gradually conveys the first tray 13 on which the cartridges are placed along the X-axis direction. When the first tray 13 leaves the first conveying assembly 41, the first moving mechanism 44 can move along the negative direction of the X-axis. To the bottom of the first material tray 13, the lift cylinder drives the push rod to rise, so that the push rod and the first material tray 13 are in contact with each other.

The transport device 4 can move the first first material tray 13 to the bottom of the recovery bin 12, and the first lifting mechanism 15 can lift the first first material tray 13 upwards. After the tray 13 is raised, the first clamping mechanism 14 can clamp the first first material tray 13 , so that the first first material tray 13 is fixed in the recovery bin 12 . When the second first material tray 13 is transported under the recovery bin 12 by the transport device 4 , the first clamping mechanism 14 can cancel the fixation of the first first material tray 13 , and the first first material tray 13 falls down. On the second first material tray 13, at this time, the lifting mechanism can simultaneously lift up the first and second first material trays 13, and at this time, the first clamping mechanism 14 can support the second A material tray 13 is clamped or held up so that the first and second first material trays 13 are fixed in the recovery bin 12 .
