一种焊接机器人焊接用焊条供给装置的使用方法，该使用方法具体包括以下步骤：
步骤一：将焊条通过储料仓2的顶部放置到储料仓2内，焊条在储料仓2的内部停留在隔网401的上部，干燥电机406工作，其输出轴带动主动锥齿407工作转动，主动锥齿407带动从动锥齿4011转动，从动锥齿4011通过固定架408带动扇叶4010转动，扇叶4010转动产生风力，通过干燥箱405下表面的进风口进入空气，同时空气被扇叶4010吹入到吹风管403的内部，并且中途经过加热丝409加热，加热后的空气通过吹风管403进入到喇叭头404的内部，最终通过喇叭头404排出，排出的热空气透过隔网401进入到储料仓2的内部，对储料仓2内部的焊条进行干燥；
步骤二：焊条经过两个四十五度倾斜的隔网401引导进入到下料口502的内部，通过下料口502进入到固定座501上表面的进料槽506内，分拨电机504工作带动转棍503转动，当分拨槽505与进料槽506垂直对应的时候，进料槽506内部的焊条进入到分拨槽505的内部，随着转棍503的继续转动，当分拨槽505与出料槽507垂直对应的时候，焊条通过出料槽507排出；
步骤三：在转棍503转动的同时，带动主动转盘6010转动，主动转盘6010转动带动固定柱6011转动，固定柱6011通过连接槽607带动从动转盘606转动，从动转盘606带动传送带603转动，使得输送槽604移动，当转棍503停止转动的时候，传送带603停止转动，使得输送槽604与下料口502垂直对应，焊条落入到输送槽604的内部；
步骤四：随着传送带603的持续转动，当转动到转折位置时，焊条因重力在接料杆608上，通过接料杆608的引导落入在接料槽609的内部，保证焊条位置和角度，焊接机器人即可通过其机械手抓取焊条。
本发明通过设置干燥机构4，干燥电机406工作，其输出轴带动主动锥齿407工作转动，主动锥齿407带动从动锥齿4011转动，从动锥齿4011通过固定架408带动扇叶4010转动，扇叶4010转动产生风力，通过干燥箱405下表面的进风口进入空气，同时空气被扇叶4010吹入到吹风管403的内部，并且中途经过加热丝409加热，加热后的空气通过吹风管403进入到喇叭头404的内部，最终通过喇叭头404排出，排出的热空气透过隔网401进入到储料仓2的内部，对储料仓2内部的焊条进行干燥，具有干燥焊条的功能，避免焊条存放时间过久出现表面潮湿的现象，提高焊条焊接的稳定性，同时也提高了焊条供给装置的功能性；通过设置分拨机构5，焊条通过下料口502进入到固定座501上表面的进料槽506内，分拨电机504工作带动转棍503转动，当分拨槽505与进料槽506垂直对应的时候，进料槽506内部的焊条进入到分拨槽505的内部，随着转棍503的继续转动，当分拨槽505与出料槽507垂直对应的时候，焊条通过出料槽507排出，能够方便将堆叠的焊条分拨成一根一根独立的焊条，有利于输送；通过设置输送机构6，转棍503转动的同时，带动主动转盘6010转动，主动转盘6010转动带动固定柱6011转动，固定柱6011通过连接槽607带动从动转盘606转动，从动转盘606带动传送带603转动，使得输送槽604移动，当转棍503停止转动的时候，传送带603停止转动，使得输送槽604与下料口502垂直对应，焊条落入到输送槽604的内部，能够将焊条一根一根独立输送到接料槽609内，使得焊条保持独立，并且保持固定的方向和角度，避免焊条堆叠导致焊接机器人难以分开夹持，并且传送带603能够实现与转棍503同步转动的功效，保证了输送槽604始终可以垂直对应下料口502，实用性更高。
