[0047] At present, the demand for automated assembly equipment is increasing. For example, the power adapters in the past were manually assembled, with low output, low efficiency, and low yield. Among them, the power adapter mainly includes a bullet, a plastic box, a slingshot, and a PIN pin. At present, these components are assembled manually. The present invention mainly aims at automating the assembly of these components. The present invention can not only improve the production efficiency of products but also ensure product quality. At the same time, it can liberate a large amount of labor and let people spend their energy on more appropriate work.
[0048] In order to illustrate the technical solution of the present invention, a detailed description is given below in conjunction with specific drawings and embodiments.
[0049] See also Figures 1 to 3The embodiment of the present invention provides an automatic assembly device for a power adapter, which includes a container 2, a bullet feeding device 3, a plastic box feeding device 4, a slingshot PIN needle feeding device 5 and a finished product preparation device 6. Among them, the bullet feeding device 3 is used to feed the bullet to the bullet upper feeding position 21 of the container 2, and the plastic box feeding device 4 is used to feed the plastic box 10 to the plastic box upper feeding position 22 of the container 2, wherein the plastic box upper feeding position 22 and the bullet upper feeding position 21 form a preset assembly position relationship. The slingshot PIN needle feeding device 5 is used to load the slingshot 8 and the PIN needle 9 into the plastic box 10, and the finished product preparation device 6 is used to form the plastic box 10 with the slingshot 8 and the PIN needle 9 in the container 2 into one piece with the bullet, thereby completing the automatic assembly of the entire power adapter. Among them, the container 2 is used to dock with the bullet feeding device 3, the plastic box feeding device 4, the slingshot PIN needle feeding device 5 and the finished product preparation device 6.
[0050] There may be one container 2, but in order to improve production efficiency, four or more containers are preferred.
[0051] The container 2 includes a bullet upper material position 21 and a plastic box upper material position 22. Among them, the bullet upper material position 21 is used to place the bullet, and it can be a trough structure whose shape matches the bullet. The plastic box upper material position 22 is located above the bullet upper material position 21, and is used to place the plastic box 10. The plastic box upper material position 22 can be a trough structure whose shape matches the bottom of the plastic box 10. In this embodiment, one end of the container 2 close to the bullet upper material position 21 is connected to the turntable 1 to facilitate the installation of the bullet on the bullet upper material position 21 and the plastic box 10 on the plastic box upper material position 22. In a specific application, when the container 2 is docked with the finished product preparation device 6, the plastic box 10 equipped with a slingshot 8 and a PIN needle 9 located at the plastic box upper material position 22 is integrally formed with the bullet located at the bullet upper material position 21 through riveting technology.
[0052] In this embodiment, the container 2 can remain stationary, and the bullet feeding device 3, the plastic box feeding device 4, the slingshot PIN needle feeding device 5 and the finished product preparation device 6 are driven, so that the bullet feeding device 3, the plastic box feeding device 4, the slingshot PIN needle feeding device 5 and the finished product preparation device 6 are respectively docked with the container 2; or the bullet feeding device 3, the plastic box feeding device 4, the slingshot PIN needle feeding device 5 and the finished product preparation device 6 remain stationary, while the container 2 is driven. At this time, the power adapter automatic assembly equipment also includes a conveying device, and multiple containers 2 are arranged on the conveying device at intervals along the conveying direction of the conveying device.
[0053] Preferably, the conveying device is a turntable 1, which can rotate. Specifically, the turntable 1 can be driven to rotate in a horizontal plane by a driving structure, and it can rotate clockwise or counterclockwise. Further preferably, there are four containers 2, and the four containers 2 are arranged at equal intervals along the circumference of the turntable 1, that is, the four containers 2 are respectively located in the four directions of east, west, south and north of the turntable 1. In a certain state, the four containers 2 are respectively connected to the bullet feeding device 3, the plastic box feeding device 4, the slingshot PIN needle feeding device 5 and the finished product preparation device 6. The bullet feeding device 3, the plastic box feeding device 4, the slingshot PIN needle feeding device 5 and the finished product preparation device 6 are arranged in sequence counterclockwise along the circumference of the turntable 1. The bullet feeding device 3 is arranged on one side of the turntable 1, and is used to feed the bullet itself to the container 2 connected to the bullet feeding device 3. The plastic box feeding device 4 is arranged on one side of the bullet feeding device 3, and is used to automatically feed the plastic box 10 to the container 2 docked with the plastic box feeding device 4. The slingshot PIN needle feeding device 5 is arranged on the side of the turntable 1 opposite to the bullet feeding device 3, and the slingshot PIN needle feeding device 5 includes a mold core 58 and an operating rod 561 matched with the mold core 58. The slingshot PIN needle feeding device 5 is used to load the slingshot 8 into the mold core 58, and poke the slingshot 8 into the preset position of the plastic box 10 under the action of the operating rod 561. The slingshot PIN needle feeding device 5 is also used to automatically feed the PIN needle 9 to the operating rod 561, and the PIN needle 9 passes through the operating rod 561 into the plastic box 10. The finished product preparation device 6 is arranged on the side of the turntable 1 opposite to the plastic box feeding device 4. The finished product preparation device 6 is used to integrally form the plastic box 10 with the slingshot 8 and the PIN needle 9 in the container 2 with the bullet, thereby completing the automatic assembly of the entire power adapter.
[0054] It is worth mentioning that the turntable 1 can rotate clockwise or counterclockwise. When the turntable 1 rotates 90° from the docking position, the four containers 2 also rotate 90° accordingly. For example, when a first container of the turntable 1 docks with the bullet feeding device 3, the second container docks with the plastic box feeding device 4, the third container docks with the slingshot PIN needle feeding device 5, and the fourth container docks with the finished product preparation device 6. After the containers 2 on the four stations have completed their work, the turntable 1 rotates 90° counterclockwise through the first sensor induction reception, wherein the first sensor includes but is not limited to a distance sensor, an electromagnetic sensor, an optical fiber sensor, etc.
[0055] It is understandable that the conveying device can also be a conveying structure such as a conveyor belt; the bullet feeding device 3, the plastic box feeding device 4, and the slingshot PIN needle feeding device 5 can also be manually involved; the number of containers 2 can also be less than four or more than four, and the specific number is selected according to actual conditions.
[0056] In this embodiment, the bullet feeding device 3 is provided to realize the automatic feeding of the bullet, the plastic box feeding device 4 is provided to realize the automatic feeding of the plastic box 10, and the slingshot PIN needle feeding device 5 is provided to realize the automatic feeding of the slingshot 8 and the PIN needle 9. The slingshot PIN needle feeding device 5 loads the slingshot 8 into the mold core 58, and under the action of the operating rod 561, the slingshot PIN needle feeding device 5 also automatically feeds the PIN needle 9, and the PIN needle 9 passes through the operating rod 561 into the plastic box 10. The finished product preparation device 6 is provided to realize the automatic feeding of the slingshot 8 and the PIN needle 9 in the container 2. The plastic box 10 of the PIN needle 9 is integrally formed with the bullet; by providing a turntable 1 and four containers 2 arranged at equal intervals along the circumference of the turntable 1, the four containers 2 are respectively connected to the bullet feeding device 3, the plastic box feeding device 4, the slingshot PIN needle feeding device 5 and the finished product preparation device 6, so that the whole equipment can work continuously; in the assembly process of the bullet, plastic box 10, slingshot 8 and PIN needle 9 of the power adapter, the whole process is automated and does not require human participation, which can not only improve product production efficiency but also ensure product quality, and at the same time can liberate a large amount of labor, so that people can spend their energy on more appropriate work and reduce production costs.
[0057] In a specific application, the power adapter automatic assembly equipment further includes a frame 7, and the turntable 1, the bullet feeding device 3, the plastic box feeding device 4, the plastic box feeding device 4 and the finished product preparation device 6 are all arranged on the working surface 71 of the frame 7. In addition, the electrical control device can be accommodated in the frame 7.
[0058] See also Figure 4 and Figure 8 In one embodiment of the present invention, the slingshot PIN needle feeding device 5 includes a slingshot grabbing mechanism 51, a transmission mechanism, a preparation station 53, a defect detection station 54, a processing station 55 and an assembly station 56.
[0059] Among them, the slingshot grabbing mechanism 51 is used to grab the slingshot 8; the transmission mechanism is provided with a plurality of mold cores 58 along its conveying direction, and the mold core 58 is used to accommodate the slingshot 8; the preparation station 53, the defect detection station 54, the processing station 55 and the assembly station 56 are arranged in sequence along the transmission direction of the transmission mechanism. In a certain state, the preparation station 53, the defect detection station 54, the processing station 55 and the assembly station 56 are respectively connected to a mold core 58. With the movement of the transmission mechanism, each mold core 58 is connected to the preparation station 53, the defect detection station 54, the processing station 55 and the assembly station 56 in sequence to complete an assembly. Then the mold core 58 moves to the preparation station 53 again with the movement of the transmission mechanism to enter the preparation work for the next assembly. This cycle allows the slingshot PIN needle feeding device 5 to work continuously, thereby improving the assembly efficiency. It is understandable that in other embodiments, a core mold 58 may also be included, and the core mold 58 remains stationary, and each station rotates so that the preparation station 53, the defect detection station 54, the processing station 55 and the assembly station 56 are connected to the core mold 58 in sequence.
[0060] In this embodiment, the preparation station 53 is used to place the slingshot 8 into the mold core 58 connected to the preparation station 53; the defect detection station 54 is used to detect whether the slingshot 8 in the mold core 58 connected to the defect detection station 54 meets the preset assembly conditions; the processing station 55 is used to process the slingshot 8 that does not meet the preset conditions in the mold core 58 connected to the processing station 55, such as removing the slingshot 8 that does not meet the preset conditions in the mold core 58, so as to prevent the slingshot 8 that does not meet the preset conditions from being loaded into the plastic box 10; the assembly station 56 is used to poke the slingshot 8 in the mold core 58 connected to the assembly station 56 into the preset position of the plastic box 10 on the container 2 through the operating rod 561.
[0061] It is worth mentioning that the processing station 55 does not only process unqualified slingshots 8. When there is only one unqualified slingshot 8 among the two slingshots 8 in the mold core 58, the other qualified slingshot 8 will also be processed.
[0062] In this embodiment, a slingshot grabbing mechanism 51 is provided to automatically grab the slingshot 8, and the slingshot 8 is transferred to the mold core 58 of the preparation station 53. When the transmission mechanism moves, the four mold cores 58 thereon are driven to rotate synchronously, so that the mold core 58 can be connected to the defect detection station 54, the processing station 55 and the assembly station 56 in sequence after the slingshot 8 is loaded, so as to perform defect detection on the slingshot 8 in the mold core 58 and remove the slingshot 8 in the mold core 58 that does not meet the preset conditions, and finally load the qualified slingshot 8 into the plastic box 10 at the assembly station 56. The whole process is automated and does not require human intervention, which can not only improve product production efficiency but also ensure product quality. At the same time, it can liberate a large amount of labor, allowing people to spend their energy on more appropriate work, thereby reducing production costs.
[0063] In one embodiment of the present invention, the transmission mechanism is a working turntable 52, which is rotatable and can rotate clockwise or counterclockwise. The working turntable 52 is provided with four mold cores 58 equidistantly arranged in sequence along its circumference, and the four mold cores 58 can rotate together with the working turntable 52. In this embodiment, the preparation station 53, the defect detection station 54, the processing station 55 and the assembly station 56 are arranged at equal intervals along the circumference of the working turntable 52. It can be understood that in other embodiments, the transmission mechanism can also be other modes such as a conveyor belt.
[0064] In one embodiment of the present invention, the material feeding device further includes a turning platform 57, which is disposed between the slingshot grabbing mechanism 51 and the preparation station 53, and is used to transfer the slingshot 8 grabbed by the slingshot grabbing mechanism 51 to the preparation station 53. The setting of the turning platform 57 solves the problem of limited activity space of the slingshot grabbing mechanism 51. It is understandable that when the turning platform 57 is not provided, the slingshot 8 can also be directly grabbed to the preparation station 53 by the slingshot grabbing mechanism 51.
[0065] See also Figures 14 to 17 In one embodiment of the present invention, the slingshot PIN needle feeding device 5 also includes a feeding mechanism, a grabbing mechanism 63 and a transfer mechanism 65. Among them, the feeding mechanism is used to feed the PIN needle 9, which can be automatic or manual; the grabbing mechanism 63 is arranged at the discharge end of the feeding mechanism, and is used to grab the PIN needle 9 on the feeding mechanism; the transfer mechanism 65 is used to receive the PIN needle 9 grabbed by the grabbing mechanism 63, and transfer the PIN needle 9 to the operating rod 561. In this way, the automatic feeding of the PIN needle 9 is realized. In the feeding process of the PIN needle 9, no manual participation is required, and the whole process is automated, which can not only improve the production efficiency of the product but also ensure the product quality. At the same time, it can liberate a large amount of labor, so that people can spend their energy on more appropriate work, and reduce the production cost. Among them, the assembly station 56 is located below the transfer mechanism 65, and the assembly station 56 is provided with an operating rod 561, and the container 2 is located below the assembly station 56.
[0066] In one embodiment, the feeding mechanism includes a first feeding device 61, the top of which is provided with a discharge channel 62 for discharging the PIN needle 9, and a grabbing mechanism 63 is provided in the discharge channel and is used to grab the PIN needle 9 on the discharge channel 62. Preferably, the first feeding device 61 is a vibration plate.
[0067] Among them, a discharge port 611 for discharging the PIN needle 9 is provided at the top of the first feeding device 61. When the first feeding device 61 vibrates, the PIN needle 9 is discharged in sequence from the discharge port 611. One end of the discharge channel 62 is connected to the discharge port 611. Specifically, the discharge channel 62 can be a tubular body, and the PIN needle 9 passes through the tubular body. The grabbing mechanism 63 is provided at the end of the discharge channel 62 away from the discharge port 611. The grabbing mechanism 63 is used to grab the PIN needle 9 located at the end of the discharge channel 62 away from the discharge port 611. It can be understood that in other embodiments, the feeding mechanism can also adopt other feeding structures. In addition, the discharge channel 62 can be a structure integrated with the vibration plate, or it can be an assembled structure.
[0068] In this embodiment, the vibration plate is an auxiliary feeding device of an automatic assembly or automatic processing machine. The vibration plate can adopt a currently commonly used parts feeding structure, and its working principle and specific structure are not described in detail here.
[0069] In one embodiment, the PIN needle feeding device further includes a needle channel 64, which is disposed below the gripping mechanism 63 and is vertically disposed. When the gripping mechanism 63 transfers the PIN needle 9 to the entrance of the needle channel 64, the PIN needle 9 performs free fall motion in the needle channel 64. Specifically, the needle channel 64 may be a tubular body, and the PIN needle 9 performs free fall motion in the tubular body. The transfer mechanism 65 is connected to one end of the needle channel 64 away from the gripping mechanism 63. The transfer mechanism 65 is used to transfer the PIN needle 9 in the needle channel 64 to the operating rod 561, and then the PIN needle 9 passes through the operating rod 561 and comes into the operating rod 561, thereby realizing the automatic assembly of the PIN needle 9.
[0070] In this embodiment, since two PIN needles 9 are provided in the power adapter, two discharge ports 611 are provided at the top of the first feeding device 61, and two discharge channels 62 are provided in parallel with each other. The grabbing mechanism 63 can grab the two PIN needles 9 at the same time. Similarly, two needle channels 64 are provided in parallel with each other, and the transfer structure is used to transfer the two PIN needles 9 to the plastic box 10 at the same time.
[0071] In a specific application, the slingshot PIN needle feeding device 5 also includes a support frame arranged on the frame 7, and the first feeding device 61, the discharge channel 62, the grabbing mechanism 63, the needle channel 64 and the switching mechanism 65 are all arranged on the support frame. Optionally, in order to ensure the stability of the support frame, a reinforcing member 101 is arranged at the connection between the support frame and the frame 7, and the reinforcing member 101 is roughly triangular, and its two adjacent sides are respectively in contact with the support frame and the frame 7.

For example, when the first mold core of the working turntable 52 docks with the first operating rod 531 of the preparation station 53, the second mold core docks with the second image sensor 541 of the defect detection station 54, the third mold core docks with the second operating rod 551 of the processing station 55, and the fourth mold core docks with the operating rod 561 of the assembly station 56.
[0106] It is worth mentioning that each of the preparation station 53, defect detection station 54, processing station 55 and transfer station in the embodiment of the present invention needs to be in a certain position (determined coordinates, height, orientation, and verticality requirements) at the same time. After rotation, they still need to meet the same requirements, so the debugging requirements for the equipment are very high.

[0109] Specifically, when at least one group of clamps is driven by the first linear drive member 632 to horizontally contact the discharge channel 62, the exposed PIN needle 9 is clamped by the clamp. After the clamping is completed, the grasping mechanism 63 makes a horizontal linear motion away from the discharge channel 62 for a certain distance, and rotates 90° under the control of the third rotary drive member 631, so that the end of the grasping mechanism 63 that clamps the PIN needle 9 is vertically downward and aligned with the channel entrance of the needle channel 64. At this time, driven by the first linear drive member 632 of the grasping mechanism 63, the clamp makes a vertical linear reciprocating motion so that the PIN needle 9 enters the needle channel 64 from the channel entrance until the clamp contacts the channel entrance. The clamp releases the PIN needle 9, and the PIN needle 9 makes a free fall motion in the needle channel 64, and then reaches the adapter mechanism 65 connected to the needle channel 64.

In a specific application, when the grasping mechanism 63 is in horizontal contact with the discharge channel 62, the first clamping plate 634 and the second clamping plate 635 of the clamp are contracted inward to clamp the exposed PIN needle 9; when the PIN needle 9 enters the needle channel 64 and the first clamping plate 634 and the second clamping plate 635 are in contact with the channel entrance of the needle channel 64, the first clamping plate 634 and the second clamping plate 635 of the clamp are expanded outward to release the PIN needle 9, and the PIN needle 9 performs free fall motion in the needle channel 64. Preferably, the third clamping driving member 633 is a third clamping cylinder.
[0113] In one embodiment of the present invention, the switching mechanism 65 includes a second linear driving member 651, a mounting plate 652, a switching member 653, a third linear driving member 654 and an operating rod 561. Wherein:

The mounting plate 652 performs reciprocating linear motion in the vertical direction under the drive of the second linear driving member 651. Specifically, one end of the mounting plate 652 is connected to the output end of the second linear driving member 651. The mounting plate 652 is provided with a first guide hole for the PIN needle 9 to pass through.
[0116] The adapter 653 is disposed on the mounting plate 652 and is located below the needle channel 64. A first receiving hole for communicating with the needle channel 64 is provided in the adapter 653. The first receiving hole is used to receive the PIN needle 9.
[0117] The third linear driving member 654 is arranged on one end of the mounting plate 652 away from the second linear driving member 651. The third linear driving member 654 is arranged horizontally, and its output end is connected to the adapter 653, and is used to drive the adapter 653 to perform reciprocating linear motion along the length direction of the mounting plate 652. Under the driving action of the third linear driving member 654, the first accommodating hole can be coaxially connected to the first guide hole and the needle channel 64. When the adapter 653 is driven by the third linear driving member 654 to the right below the needle channel 64, the first accommodating hole of the adapter 653 is opposite to and connected with the needle channel 64, and the PIN needle 9 enters the first accommodating hole from the needle channel 64;
[0118] The operating rod 561 is installed below the mounting plate 652 . A second guide hole is defined in the operating rod 561 and is directly opposite to and connected to the first guide hole. Specifically, the operating rod 561 is fixedly connected below the mounting plate 652 .

[0120] In this embodiment, after a whole PIN needle 9 is accommodated in the first accommodating hole of the adapter 653, the second linear driving component 651 controls the operating rod 561, the mounting plate 652 fixedly connected to the operating rod 561, and the components above the mounting plate 652 (including the above-mentioned grasping mechanism 63 and the needle channel 64) to move vertically downward, so as to poke the qualified slingshot 8 after defect detection from the mold core 58 into the plastic box 10 through the operating rod 561. At this time, the mold core 58 is embedded in the plastic box 10, and the operating rod 561 is extended into the bottom end of the mold core 58. The third linear driving component 654 drives the adapter 653 to move to the top of the filling block 655, so that the first accommodating hole is connected to the corresponding third guide hole. At this time, the PIN needle 9 in the first accommodating hole comes into the plastic box 10 through the third guide hole, the first guide hole and the second guide hole in turn.

If they are directly installed on the mounting plate 652, the surface of the mounting plate 652 will be uneven. The setting of the filling block 655 can bury the fasteners in the filling block 655 to ensure that the upper surface of the filling block 655 is flat.
[0123] Preferably, the filling block 655 is detachably connected to the mounting plate 652, so that different filling blocks 655 can be replaced to correspond to different PIN needle 9 models, thereby avoiding the trouble of modifying the entire machine when the PIN needle 9 model changes.

Specifically, when the PIN needle 9 passes through the filling block 655 and the mounting plate 652 from the first accommodation hole of the adapter 653 to enter the operating rod 561, the determination rod 656 passes through the first accommodation hole of the adapter 653, the third guide hole of the filling block 655, the first guide hole of the mounting plate 652, and the second guide hole of the operating rod 561 in sequence under the control of the fourth linear drive, so as to ensure that the PIN needle 9 is placed in the plastic box 10 under the operation of the determination rod 656.

[0132] See also Figures 18 to 20 In one embodiment of the present invention, the bullet feeding device 3 includes a second feeding device 31, a pipeline 32 and a transfer mechanism 33. Among them, a bullet channel 311 extending from bottom to top and in a spiral shape is provided on the inner wall of the second feeding device 31, and the bullet channel 311 is used for allowing the bullet to pass through. The entrance of the bullet channel 311 is connected to the bottom of the second feeding device 31, and the outlet of the bullet channel 311 is located at the top of the second feeding device 31; one end of the pipe 32 is connected to the outlet of the bullet channel 311, and the pipe 32 has a through hole for allowing the bullet to pass through; a second accommodating hole for accommodating the bullet is provided in the transfer mechanism 33, and the second accommodating hole is connected to one end of the pipe 32 away from the bullet channel 311, and the transfer mechanism 33 is used to transfer the bullet in the second accommodating hole to just above the bullet unloading position 21 so that the second accommodating hole is opposite to the bullet unloading position 21, thereby allowing the bullet in the second accommodating hole to fall to the bullet unloading position 21 under the action of its own gravity.
[0133] Preferably, the second feeding device 31 is a vibration plate, which is an auxiliary feeding device of an automatic assembly or automatic processing machine. The vibration plate can adopt a currently commonly used parts feeding structure, and its working principle and specific structure are not described in detail here.
[0134] In this embodiment, in order for the bullet to pass smoothly through the pipe 32, the transfer mechanism 33 is arranged below the outlet of the bullet channel 311. The bullet passes through the pipe 32 under the action of its own gravity and arrives at the second receiving hole of the transfer mechanism 33.
[0135] In this embodiment, since two bullets are provided in the power adapter, two pipes 32 are connected at the outlet of the bullet channel 311 of the second feeding device 31. Correspondingly, two second accommodating holes are provided in the transfer mechanism 33, and the two pipes 32 correspond to the two second accommodating holes one by one and are connected to each other.
[0136] In a specific application, the bullet feeding device 3 further includes a base 34 disposed on the working surface 71 of the frame 7, the second feeding device 31 is disposed on the base 34, and the transfer mechanism 33 is disposed on the working surface 71 of the frame 7. Optionally, in order to ensure the stability of the base 34, a reinforcing member 101 is disposed at the connection between the base 34 and the working surface 71, and the reinforcing member 101 is roughly triangular, and its two adjacent side surfaces are respectively in contact with the base 34 and the working surface 71.
[0137] In this embodiment, a second feeding device 31, a pipeline 32 and a transfer mechanism 33 are provided, wherein a bullet channel 311 extending from bottom to top and in a spiral shape is provided on the inner wall of the second feeding device 31, one end of the pipeline 32 is connected to the outlet of the bullet channel 311, a second accommodating hole for accommodating the bullet is provided in the transfer mechanism 33, and the second accommodating hole is connected to the other end of the pipeline 32, and the bullet in the second feeding device 31 enters the pipeline 32 through the bullet channel 311 and further enters the second accommodating hole, and the transfer mechanism 33 is provided with a second accommodating hole for accommodating the bullet. The transfer mechanism 33 is used to transfer the bullet in the second accommodating hole to just above the bullet unloading position 21 so that the second accommodating hole is opposite to the bullet unloading position 21. At this time, the bullet in the second accommodating hole falls to the bullet unloading position 21 under the action of its own gravity, thereby realizing the automatic feeding of the bullet. In the process of feeding the bullet, no human participation is required, and the whole process is automated, which can not only improve product production efficiency but also ensure product quality. At the same time, it can liberate a large amount of labor, allowing people to spend their energy on more appropriate work, thereby reducing production costs.
[0138] Please combine Fig.21In one embodiment of the present invention, the transfer mechanism 33 includes a driving component 331 and a sliding block 333 and a sliding member 332 connected to the output end of the driving component 331. The sliding block 333 is stacked below the sliding member 332. The sliding member 332 is provided with the above-mentioned second accommodating hole. The driving component 331 is used to drive the sliding block 333 and the sliding member 332 to reciprocate in the direction of the bullet discharge position 21, and the surface of the sliding block 333 on the side close to the sliding member 332 is flush with the upper surface of the bullet discharge position 21. When the driving assembly 331 drives the sliding block 333 and the sliding member 332 to move toward the direction of the bullet discharge position 21, the bullet in the second accommodating hole is driven to move together. Since the upper surface of the sliding block 333 is flush with the upper surface of the bullet discharge position 21, when the sliding block 333 moves to contact the component of the bullet discharge position 21, the sliding block 333 stops moving, and the sliding member 332 continues to move toward the direction of the bullet discharge position 21 until the lower surface of the sliding member 332 contacts the plane where the bullet discharge position 21 is located, and the second accommodating hole is located directly above the bullet discharge position 21. At this time, the bullet in the second accommodating hole of the sliding member 332 falls to the bullet discharge position 21 under the action of gravity.
[0139] In this embodiment, the driving component 331 may include a driving member, which drives the sliding member 332 and the sliding block 333 to move simultaneously; the driving component 331 may also include two driving members, one of which drives the sliding member 332 to move, and the other drives the sliding block 333 to move, and the two driving members drive the sliding member 332 and the sliding block 333 to move synchronously.
[0140] In one embodiment of the present invention, a guide hole is provided in the sliding block 333, which is coaxially arranged with the second receiving hole and is interconnected. The guide hole and the second receiving hole are both circular holes, and the diameter of the guide hole is smaller than the diameter of the second receiving hole, so as to prevent the bullet from falling from the second receiving hole into the sliding block 333. In this embodiment, the bullet feeding device 3 also includes a fourth sensor provided below the guide hole, and the fourth sensor is used to detect whether the bullet in the second receiving hole is in place, so as to prevent the bullet in the second receiving hole from not being in place and causing the subsequent workstations to fail to work normally, thereby improving the assembly efficiency.
[0141] In one embodiment of the present invention, the fourth sensor is an optical fiber sensor, which passes through the guide hole to detect whether the bullet is in place. It is understandable that in other embodiments of the present invention, the fourth sensor can also be other types of sensors, not limited to optical fiber sensors.
[0142] In one embodiment of the present invention, the bullet feeding device 3 further includes a control module, and the above-mentioned driving assembly 331 includes a fifth driving member and a sixth driving member, the fifth driving member is drivingly connected to the sliding member 332, that is, the sliding member 332 is connected to the output end of the fifth driving member, and the fifth driving member is used to drive the sliding member 332 to reciprocate in the direction of the bullet discharge position 21, and the sixth driving member is drivingly connected to the sliding block 333, that is, the sliding block 333 is connected to the output end of the sixth driving member, and the sixth driving member is used to drive the sliding block 333 to reciprocate in the direction of the bullet discharge position 21. The control module is electrically connected to the fourth sensor, the fifth driving member and the sixth driving member respectively, and the control module is used to control the action of the fifth driving member according to the information detected by the sensor.
[0143] Specifically, if the fourth sensor detects that one of the bullets in the two second receiving holes is not in place, the fourth sensor sends a command to the control module, so that the control module controls the fifth driving member to move, so that the sliding member 332 moves away from the sliding block 333 and is located in the gap between the sliding block 333 and the container 2, so that the bullet falls from the gap through the second receiving hole. It should be understood that at this time, the sixth driving member does not take any action, that is, the sliding block 333 is kept stationary.
[0144] Optionally, the fifth driving member and the sixth driving member are both cylinders, which have low cost and simple control method. Of course, the fifth driving member and the sixth driving member can also be driving structures such as electric push rods that can drive the sliding member 332 and the sliding block 333 to perform linear motion.
[0145] See also Fig.21 In one embodiment of the present invention, the bullet feeding device 3 also includes a bullet box 35 arranged below the gap between the sliding block 333 and the bullet discharge position 21. The bullet box 35 is used to collect the slingshots 8 that are not in place in the second accommodating hole. The collected slingshots 8 can be reused, saving costs.
[0146] In one embodiment of the present invention, the pipe 32 is made of a spring material to facilitate stretching and deformation, so that the distance between the second feeding device 31 and the transfer mechanism 33 is adjustable.
[0147] In one embodiment of the present invention, the second feeding device 31 is configured so that the bullet is discharged in a preset direction. For example, the forward and reverse directions of the bullet are determined by the configuration of the bullet channel 311 in the second feeding device 31. Specifically, the path parameter of the bullet channel 311 is configured so that the bullets with different directions from the preset direction fall into the drain pan of the second feeding device 31, such as the width of the road, the setting of roadblocks, etc., while the bullets with the same direction as the preset direction pass smoothly and enter the pipe port, and fall from the pipe 32 to the second receiving hole of the transfer mechanism 33.
[0148] The working process of the bullet feeding device 3 of the embodiment of the present invention is as follows: pour the bullet into the second feeding device 31, start the second feeding device 31 so that the bullet is discharged to the outlet of the bullet channel 311 in a preset direction, falls into the pipe 32, and finally falls into the second receiving hole of the sliding member 332; the fourth sensor detects whether the bullets in the two second receiving holes are in place. If one of the bullets is not in place, the fourth sensor sends an instruction to the control module, thereby controlling the movement of the fifth driving member so that the sliding member 332 moves the sliding block 333 away from the gap between the sliding block 333 and the container 2, so that the bullet falls into the bullet box 35 below the gap; if the fourth sensor detects Both bullets are in place, and the fourth sensor sends an instruction to the control module. The control module controls the fifth drive member and the sixth drive member to move synchronously so that the sliding member 332 and the sliding block 333 move to the bullet discharge position 21 of the container 2, wherein the upper surface of the sliding block 333 and the upper surface of the bullet discharge position 21 are in the same horizontal plane. When the sliding block 333 contacts the component of the bullet discharge position 21, the sliding block 333 stops moving, and the sliding member 332 continues to move toward the bullet discharge position 21 until the lower surface of the sliding member 332 contacts the plane where the bullet discharge position 21 is located. At this time, the bullet in the sliding member 332 falls to the bullet discharge position 21 under the action of gravity.

[0154] Preferably, in steps S2 to S4, the conveying device conveys a certain distance respectively. Specifically, in the above steps, the conveying device is preferably a turntable 1, and the turntable rotates a preset angle in steps S2 to S4, and the angle is preferably 90°. In addition, the bullet feeding device 3, the plastic box feeding device 4 and the slingshot PIN needle feeding device 5 can be automatically fed or manually fed.
[0155] Furthermore, the slingshot PIN needle feeding device 5 first loads the slingshot 8 into the mold core 58, and under the action of the operating rod 561, the slingshot 8 is poked into the preset position of the plastic box 10. The slingshot PIN needle feeding device 5 also automatically feeds the PIN needle 9, and the PIN needle 9 passes through the operating rod 561 into the plastic box 10.
[0156] Among them, after step S4, the turntable 1 rotates 90° again, so that the empty container 2 is docked with the bullet feeding device 3, and then the bullet feeding device 3 automatically feeds the bullet to the bullet upper material position 21 of the container 2, and the cycle is repeated to realize the continuous operation of the power adapter automatic assembly equipment.
