Automatic electric connector assembling method and automatic electric connector assembler

Abstract

The invention relates to an automatic electric connector assembling method and an automatic electric connector assembler. The assembler is at least provided with a feed station and a discharge station along the circumference of a graduated turnplate in a distributing way, a insertion station is arranged ahead of the discharge station, each station on the graduated turnplate is correspondingly provided with a clamp for clamping holed parts, and the feed station, the insertion station and the discharge station are correspondingly provided with a feed manipulator, a locating detent three-axis insertion mechanism and a discharge manipulator; a pickup unit of an image detection system is arranged on the insertion station or the station ahead of the insertion station; the pickup unit acquires the image information of insertion holes to be assembled on the holed part to be clamped and then transmits the image information to a computer processing system of the image detection system, and the obtained coordinate data of the positions of the insertion holes are transmitted to the locating detent three-axis insertion mechanism. The invention realizes the flexible production of product assembly, can automatically identify and assemble part holes with a variety of hole positions, different hole position arrangements and different shapes, and has high automation degree.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an automatic assembling method and an automatic assembling machine implementing the method, especially an automatic assembling method of an electric connector for installing a part into another part having one or more jack holes and an electrical connector implementing the method Connector automatic assembly machine. Background technique [0002] An electrical connector is a component that is equipped with pins on an insulator with one or more jacks. At present, the assembly of the pins in the electrical connector is completed by manual cooperation with the assembly machine. Before the assembly machine works, it is necessary to The hole position coordinates of the jack on the insulator are manually input into the assembly machine, and then the insulator of the electrical connector to be installed is manually placed on a specific jig during assembly, and the insulator jack is positioned in a specific direction, and then ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

When this type of assembly machine is in use, it can only be assembled according to the coordinate positions that have been input in the machine. If the position of the insulator hole on the fixture changes due to factors such as replacement of different parts or changes in the clamping position of the parts, the machine cannot The corresponding adjustments are made automatically, so that the assembly cannot be completed, so if you want to assemble electrical connectors with different jack holes, you must re-enter the corresponding hole coordinates

It can be seen that the existing assembly machines of this type have a low degree of automation, are inflexible and convenient to use, have low production efficiency, and high production costs.
