The following describes a process of automatically feeding an object to be printed according to an embodiment of the present utility model according to fig. 11, in which the object to be printed is taken as a license plate to specifically describe: the license plates are in a series and are placed beside the automatic feeding module, because electrostatic negative pressure exists between the license plates, adjacent license plates can be adhered, if the adjacent license plates are not separated, two or more license plates can be sucked up by the sucking disc at the same time, and therefore, it is critical to accurately separate the uppermost license plate; in addition, the license plate separation process can possibly lead to position deviation, so that the position of the license plate at the top layer needs to be finely adjusted after the license plate at the top layer is separated, the license plates fed on the printing platform at each time are ensured to be at the same position and then are grabbed, and the printing precision is ensured.

The specific working process of license plate feeding is as follows:

step S1, firstly, an operator places a material to be printed, namely a license plate to be printed, specifically: the knob 76 of the rotary skip module 7 of the operator controls the driving motor 75 to drive the material supporting plate 72 to descend to the lowest origin, then the operator puts a stack of license plates on the material supporting plate 72 and inserts the license plates into the material cartridge clip module 10 at the same time, the length direction of the license plates is parallel to the X-axis direction, the width direction of the license plates is arranged at intervals along the Y-axis direction, and in the embodiment, the skip module 7 can put five stack of license plates at the same time, namely, the five license plates are set into a group to carry out feeding operation.

Step S2, then the material rises to a grabbing position, specifically: the driving motor 75 drives the material supporting plate 72 to drive the license plate to ascend, when the license plate at the top ascends and reaches the position of the position sensor 103, the sensor is triggered, the license plate stops ascending, the position is defined as a license plate grabbing position, at this time, one wide edge of the license plate is attached to the first backup plate 101 in the material cartridge clip module 10, a step surface (or an inclined surface) is arranged at the top end of the first backup plate 101, the bottom surface of the uppermost license plate is leveled with the step surface (or positioned on the inclined surface), the surface of the wide edge of the other side of the license plate is pressed by a step below the material separation pushing block 81 in the material X alignment module 8, the thickness of the license plate is designed corresponding to the depth of the step, and the fact that only one license plate at the top end is pushed at each time is ensured. A position sensor 103 is correspondingly arranged on each license plate, five position sensors 103 are arranged in the embodiment, and the installation height of each position sensor 103 is kept consistent; meanwhile, whether the sensor 104 detects the existence of the license plate on the skip car or not is needed to detect whether the license plate exists in the skip car or not in the cartridge clip module 10, if no license plate exists in the skip car, the feeding process is stopped, and an operator needs to put the material into the skip car and then continue to operate.

Step S3, separating the top material, specifically: the blowing valve of the blowing nozzle 111 in the material separation module 11 is opened, the blowing nozzle 111 penetrates through the rectangular slot of the first backup plate 101 in the material cartridge clip module 10 to blow air to the middle of the first license plate at the top and the second license plate adjacent to the first license plate below the first license plate, the angle of the blowing nozzle 111 is adjustable, and an oblique angle is formed at the position of the blowing nozzle 111, so that the blowing nozzle 111 faces the space between the first license plate at the top and the second license plate adjacent to the second license plate below the first license plate, and accordingly, the blowing air can be blown to the space between the two license plates as much as possible to eliminate negative pressure.

Step S4, pushing out a top material, specifically: the material separation pushing block 81 in the material X-direction alignment module 8 pushes out the top license plate along the X-axis direction towards the direction close to the printing platform module 2, the pushing distance is about 8mm, the blowing nozzle 111 continuously blows in the pushing process, after the top license plate is displaced, wind can completely enter from the lower part of the top license plate, negative pressure between the two license plates is thoroughly eliminated, and therefore the risk of scratching the surface of the material in the process of pushing out the top license plate is avoided. At this time, the license plate on the top layer is completely separated and pushed out, and meanwhile, in the pushing process, the license plate is pushed onto the first backup plate 101 by the material separation pushing block 81, namely, the alignment operation of the license plate in the X-axis direction is performed, so that the license plate is ensured to be consistent in position in the X-axis direction. Then the blowing nozzle 111 is closed and the material separation pushing block 81 is returned to the initial position.

S5, carrying out Y-axis direction alignment operation on the materials, wherein the Y-axis direction alignment operation specifically comprises the following steps: the material Y-direction alignment module 12 and the material lifting module 13 move to the upper part of the license plate along two axes (X-axis direction) of the material beam module 9 through a linear motor, the lifting driving motor 132 drives the material Y-direction alignment module 12 to descend until the suckers 125 contact the upper surface of the license plate, at this time, each first baffle plate 121 and each second baffle plate 122 in the material Y-direction alignment module 12 are positioned on the right side of the left four license plates, the alignment driving motor 124 drives each first baffle plate 121 and each second baffle plate 122 to move towards the third backup plate 105 along the Y-axis direction until one side of the left end surface of the license plate is propped against the third backup plate 105, the other side of the left end surface of the license plate is propped against the optical axis 154, and at this time, all the left four license plates are propped against each other; then, the alignment driving motor 124 drives each of the first baffle 121 and the second baffle 122 to move toward the second backup plate 102 along the Y-axis direction until one end of the rightmost fifth license plate is attached to the second backup plate 102 and the other end is attached to the optical axis 154, and the alignment operation of the group of license plates in the Y-axis direction is completed.

Step S6, grabbing materials, specifically: the suction cup 125 is opened to suck a group of five license plates, the lifting driving motor 132 in the material lifting module 13 drives the material Y to rise upwards along the vertical direction, after rising to a preset height position, the material lifting module 13 and the material Y to move to the upper part of the printing platform module 2 along the material beam module 9 (X-axis direction) through the driving of the linear motor, then the lifting driving motor 132 in the material lifting module 13 drives the material Y to descend along the vertical direction, after descending to a platform appointed position in the printing platform module 2, the suction cup 125 deflating valve is opened, the suction cup 125 deflates to separate the license plates from the material Y, and a group of license plates are fed. The elevation driving motor 132 in the material elevation module 13 again drives the material Y-direction alignment module 12 to rise to a preset height in the vertical direction.

Step S7, judging whether all the materials to be printed on a desktop are fed completely, if yes, continuing the follow-up transfer printing flow; if not, repeating the steps S2-S6 until the license plates to be printed on each desktop are completely loaded.

In this embodiment, ten license plates are placed on a platform, and the automatic feeding module grabs five license plates each time to perform automatic feeding operation, and completes the operation in two times. The process comprises the steps of separating adjacent license plates, positioning the license plates (positioning in the X-axis direction and positioning in the Y-axis direction), and automatically grabbing and putting down the license plates.
