The pushing mechanism 60 is used for pushing the uppermost layer of the multiple layers of stacked folding material boxes 700 in the material rack 30 to a predetermined height, and then the translation mechanism 50 enables the lifting mechanism 40 and the clamping mechanism 20 to move to the position corresponding to the uppermost layer of the folding material boxes 700 along the plane direction; the lifting mechanism 40 lowers the holding mechanism 20 to contact the uppermost folded magazine 700, and after the holding mechanism 20 holds the folded magazine 700, the lifting mechanism 40 raises the holding mechanism 20 and the folded magazine 700 together with respect to the stack 30. Subsequently, the translation mechanism 50 drives the clamping mechanism 20 to move along the plane, so that the clamping mechanism 20 moves to the position above the discharging station, and the lifting mechanism 40 enables the folding material box 700 to be stably placed on the discharging station by enabling the clamping mechanism 20 to descend to the discharging station, so that the folding material box 700 is taken out automatically, and then the folding material box 700 is subjected to butt joint forming by other processing devices or manpower. Since the automatic feeding device 100 automatically finishes the operation of taking out the folded material boxes 700, the folded material boxes 700 can be continuously and efficiently taken out one by one, which is beneficial to the continuous operation of the product production line.

Alternatively, the folding magazine 700 refers to a magazine in a collapsed state, which may be a carton or a foldable box constructed of other materials.

Referring to fig. 1 and 2, in one embodiment, the number of the stacks 30 is at least two, and the stacks 30 are arranged in parallel; the pushing mechanisms 60 correspond to the stacks 30 in number one to one, and the pushing mechanisms 60 are used for pushing and lifting the corresponding folded material boxes 700 in the stacks 30.

Before the automatic feeding device 100 is used, the folded magazines 700 stacked on top of each other are replenished into each stack 30 layer by layer. After the clamping mechanism 20 has removed all of the folded magazines 700 from one stack 30, the folded magazines 700 are removed from the other stack 30. The number of the material racks 30 is set to be more than two, so that more folding material boxes 700 can be placed in the material racks 30 during material supplementing at each time, the material supplementing of the material racks 30 is avoided frequently, and the continuous operation of the automatic feeding equipment 100 is facilitated.
