Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the turntable assembly 100 is installed on the workbench 130, and a plurality of assembly positioning holes 111 are evenly distributed in a circle on the turntable assembly 100. Each assembly positioning hole 111 corresponds to a work station. In this embodiment, 8 assembly positioning holes 111 are taken as an example, that is, 8 work stations are configured, and the 8 work stations are respectively a ratchet ring part placement station, a crankshaft part assembly station, a gasket part assembly station, a pawl assembly station, a bushing part assembly station, a bearing part assembly station, a workpiece pressing station, and a blanking station.

The second working position of the synchronous material taking and assembling unit is adapted to three of the plurality of assembly positioning holes 111. The pawl material taking and assembling mechanism 500, the bushing material taking and assembling mechanism 600, the bearing material taking and assembling mechanism 700, the pressing mechanism 800, and the blanking mechanism 900 are all installed on the workbench 130 and their positions are adapted to the assembly positioning holes 111. Among them, a bushing feeding mechanism 610 is arranged at the first working position of the pawl material taking and assembling mechanism 500, and a bearing feeding mechanism 710 is arranged at the first working position of the bearing material taking and assembling mechanism 700.

[0023] The transmission component assembly equipment of this embodiment can be paired with peripheral feeding equipment and other assembly equipment to form a production line, such as ratchet ring feeding equipment, crankshaft feeding equipment, gasket feeding equipment, bushing feeding equipment, bearing feeding equipment, and jaw assembly equipment. It should be noted that the peripheral feeding equipment and other assembly equipment are not the focus of discussion in this embodiment. Therefore, this embodiment does not describe the specific structures of the feeding equipment and other assembly equipment in too much detail. The feeding equipment and other assembly equipment only have a functional connection with the transmission component assembly equipment of this embodiment and will not affect the structural details of the transmission component assembly equipment of this embodiment.

[0024] During operation, the rotation of the turntable assembly 100 can switch the assembly positioning holes 111 within the circumferential range to different workstations to achieve the gradual assembly of the target workpiece. The ratchet ring feeding mechanism 210, crankshaft feeding mechanism 310, gasket feeding mechanism 410, bushing feeding mechanism 610, and bearing feeding mechanism 710 respectively transfer the corresponding parts to be assembled from external equipment to preset positions to wait for material taking and assembly. The ratchet ring material taking and assembly mechanism 200, crankshaft material taking and assembly mechanism 300, gasket material taking and assembly mechanism 400, pawl material taking and assembly mechanism 500, bushing material taking and assembly mechanism 600, and bearing material taking and assembly mechanism 700 respectively transfer the corresponding parts to be assembled to different assembly positioning holes 111 of the turntable assembly 100 for part assembly. Among them, the synchronous material taking and assembly unit realizes the synchronous movement of the ratchet ring material taking and assembly mechanism 200, crankshaft material taking and assembly mechanism 300, and gasket material taking and assembly mechanism 400 through the first translation module 234, which is beneficial to simplifying the structure of the equipment and reducing the equipment cost.

[0025] The above solution rotates the workstations through the turntable assembly 100, and the ratchet ring material taking and assembly mechanism 200, crankshaft material taking and assembly mechanism 300, gasket material taking and assembly mechanism 400, pawl material taking and assembly mechanism 500, bushing material taking and assembly mechanism 600, and bearing material taking and assembly mechanism 700 cooperate with the ratchet ring feeding mechanism 210, crankshaft feeding mechanism 310, gasket feeding mechanism 410, bushing feeding mechanism 610, and bearing feeding mechanism 710 to realize automatic material taking and assembly at each workstation. The pressing mechanism 800 presses the target semi-finished workpiece, and the blanking mechanism 900 discharges the target workpiece. In this way, the automatic assembly of the target workpiece can be realized, which is beneficial to improving the assembly efficiency.

[0026] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3, the turntable assembly 100 includes an upper turntable 110 and a lower turntable 120. The assembly positioning holes 111 are provided on the upper turntable 110, and the contour shape of the assembly positioning holes 111 is adapted to the ratchet ring part 12. A positioning post 121 is provided on the lower turntable 120 at a position adapted to the assembly positioning holes 111. The crankshaft part 11 can be sleeved on the positioning post 121 to limit the crankshaft part 11 and prevent the crankshaft part 11 from shaking during the rotation of the turntable assembly 100.

[0027] Please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 , the ratchet ring feeding mechanism 210 includes a first conveyor belt 211, a first positioning guide rail 212 and a first camera 213. The first positioning guide rail 212 is installed on the first conveyor belt 211, and the first camera 213 is installed below the first conveyor belt 211 and is used to identify the angle of the ratchet ring part 12. The ratchet ring picking and assembling mechanism 200 includes a connected first lifting module 201 and a first rotating jaw module 202. The first rotating jaw module 202 is used to adjust the angle of the ratchet ring part 12. The ratchet ring part 12 and the target crankshaft are connected by a spline. During the assembly process, it is necessary to match the positions of the spline and the keyway. When the ratchet ring part 12 moves to the preset position, the first camera 213 identifies the angle of the ratchet ring part 12 to facilitate angle adjustment by the first rotating jaw module 202. It should be noted that features for angle identification can be provided on the ratchet ring part 12, and the angle for angle identification refers to the angle of the features for angle identification relative to the angular coordinate system with the axis of the ratchet ring part 12 as the center in the horizontal plane. The first positioning guide rail 212 can include a guide rod and a positioning plate. The guide rod is used to guide the movement of the ratchet ring part 12, and the positioning plate is used to stop the ratchet ring part 12 in place to ensure that the target ratchet ring can move to the preset position.

[0028] Please continue to refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5, the crankshaft feeding mechanism 310 includes a first material taking guide rail 311, a second camera 312 and a lifting and rotating jaw module 313. The first material taking guide rail 311 is inclined relative to the horizontal plane, and a positioning baffle is provided at the end of the first material taking guide rail 311. The second camera 312 is installed below the first material taking guide rail 311, and the lifting and rotating jaw module 313 is installed adjacent to the end of the first material taking guide rail 311. The lifting and rotating jaw module 313 is used to clamp, lift and flip the crankshaft part 11 and then lower it, and the second camera 312 is used to identify the angle of the crankshaft part 11. The crankshaft material taking and assembling mechanism 300 includes a connected second lifting module 301 and a second rotating jaw module 302. The second rotating jaw module 302 is used to adjust the angle of the crankshaft part 11. The first material taking guide rail 311 is inclined, so that the horizontally placed crankshaft part 11 can roll by gravity until it is blocked by the positioning baffle. The lifting and rotating jaw module 313 can clamp the crankshaft part 11 and adjust the crankshaft part 11 from the horizontally placed state to the vertically placed state, which is convenient for the second camera 312 to identify the angle of the crankshaft part 11 and convenient for the second rotating jaw module 302 to clamp. After the second rotating jaw module 302 adjusts the angle of the crankshaft part 11, the positions of the spline and the keyway between the crankshaft part 11 and the target ratchet part can be adapted, so as to facilitate the assembly.

[0029] Please continue to refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5, the gasket feeding mechanism 410 includes a second material taking guide rail 411, a second positioning guide rail 412 and a pull rod assembly 413. The second positioning guide rail 412 is installed on the second material taking guide rail 411 and a gasket positioning portion 4121 is provided at the end. The pull rod assembly 413 is installed below the second material taking guide rail 411. A one-way rotating toggle rod 4131 is installed on the pull rod assembly 413. For example, a return torsion spring is connected to the toggle rod 4131. A stop member is provided in one of the two rotating directions (counterclockwise direction and clockwise direction) of the toggle rod 4131 to limit the rotating direction of the toggle rod 4131. The gasket material taking and assembling mechanism 400 includes a third lifting module 401 and a gasket jaw module 402. The gasket jaw module 402 is used to grip the gasket part 13 located at the gasket positioning portion 4121. The pull rod assembly 413 can use a cylinder or a motor as the power member. When the gasket part 13 is at the initial position of the second material taking guide rail 411, the pull rod assembly 413 drives the toggle rod 4131 to move until the toggle rod 4131 abuts against the gasket part 13. Since the toggle rod 4131 can rotate in one direction, the toggle rod 4131 rotates a certain angle under the interference of the gasket part 13 and resets when moving to the central hollow area of the gasket part 13. Then, the toggle rod 4131 drives the gasket part 13 to move on the second material taking guide rail 411 under the drive of the pull rod assembly 413, and moves to the position where the gasket positioning portion 4121 is located under the guiding action of the second positioning guide rail 412 for stop positioning. The gasket jaw module 402 grips the gasket part 13 and rises under the drive of the third lifting module 401 to achieve material taking.

[0030] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 6 , the ratchet material taking and assembling mechanism 500 includes a first rotating table 501, a fourth lifting module 502, a pressing module 503, a first jaw module 504 and a restraint ring 505. The pressing module 503, the first jaw module 504 and the restraint ring 505 are all installed on the fourth lifting module 502. The first jaw module 504 is connected to the pressing module 503. The restraint ring 505 is located below the first jaw module 504. The fourth lifting module 502 is installed on the first rotating table 501. Since the ratchet component 14 is provided with a ratchet and a torsion spring, the ratchet rotates radially outward under the action of the torsion spring, interfering with the assembly. The restraint ring 505 can limit the ratchet of the ratchet component 14 to converge within a certain range for subsequent assembly. The first jaw module 504 grips the ratchet component 14 and rises or presses down under the drive of the pressing module 503. The fourth lifting module 502 can drive the pressing module 503, the first jaw module 504 and the restraint ring 505 to rise or fall synchronously. The first rotating table 501 can drive the fourth lifting module 502 to rotate, so as to switch between the material taking position and the assembling position.

[0031] Please refer to Figure 1 ,Figure 2 and Figure 7 The bushing material taking and assembling mechanism 600 includes a second translation module 601, a fifth lifting module 602, and a second jaw module 603. The second jaw module 603 is installed on the fifth lifting module 602, and the fifth lifting module 602 is installed on the second translation module 601. The second jaw module 603 is used to pick up the bushing parts 15 and move up and down or horizontally under the drive of the fifth lifting module 602 and the second translation module 601, so as to realize the position switching and assembly of the bushing parts 15.

[0032] Please continue to refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 7 The bearing material taking and assembling mechanism 700 includes a third translation module 701, a sixth lifting module 702, and a third jaw module 703. The third jaw module 703 is installed on the sixth lifting module 702, and the sixth lifting module 702 is installed on the third translation module 701. The third jaw module 703 is used to pick up the bearing parts 16 and move up and down or horizontally under the drive of the sixth lifting module 702 and the third translation module 701, so as to realize the position switching and assembly of the bushing parts 15.

[0033] The bushing feeding mechanism 610 and the bearing feeding mechanism 710 are both conveyor belts. The bushing feeding mechanism 610 is used to transfer the bushing parts 15 from an external feeding device to a preset position for the bushing material taking and assembling mechanism 600 to pick up. Similarly, the bearing feeding mechanism 710 is used to transfer the bearing parts 16 from an external feeding device to a preset position for easy picking. The conveyor belt is a common linear transmission mechanism, and the conveying process is stable, reliable, and has a high repeated accuracy, which is beneficial to reducing the position positioning deviation of the parts during the conveying process.

[0034] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 8 The pressing mechanism 800 includes a pressing component and a pushing component (not shown). The pressing component includes a connecting pressure rod 801 and a pressing power component 802. The pressing power component 802 uses a cylinder or a motor. An avoidance hole 803 suitable for avoiding the crankshaft part 11 is provided on the pressure rod 801. The pushing component is located below the turntable component 100 and is positionally adapted to the pressing component. The pushing component includes a connected pushing cylinder and a pushing plate. The pushing plate can abut against the bottom of the turntable component 100 under the drive of the pushing cylinder. In order to ensure that the bushing parts 15 and the bearing parts 16 can be installed in place, the pressing component applies pressure to the bushing parts 15 and the bearing parts 16 from top to bottom. Among them, the avoidance hole 803 on the pressure rod 801 can avoid the crankshaft part 11 so that the pressure rod 801 can abut against the bushing parts 15 and the bearing parts 16, and the pushing component can abut against the bottom of the turntable component 100, so as to apply a reverse thrust from the bottom of the turntable component 100, which is beneficial to keeping the turntable component 100 balanced during the pressing process.

[0035] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 9 As shown in FIGS. and, the blanking mechanism 900 includes a second rotating table 901, a seventh lifting module 902, and a fourth jaw module 903. The fourth jaw module 903 is installed on the seventh lifting module 902, and the seventh lifting module 902 is installed on the second rotating table 901. The fourth jaw module 903 is used to grip the target workpiece that has completed assembly, and under the drive of the seventh lifting module 902 and the second rotating table 901, it rises and rotates until blanking at a preset position.

[0036] It is worth mentioning that, without considering the equipment cost, the ratchet ring material taking and assembling mechanism 200, the crankshaft material taking and assembling mechanism 300, the gasket material taking and assembling mechanism 400, the pawl material taking and assembling mechanism 500, the bushing material taking and assembling mechanism 600, and the bearing material taking and assembling mechanism 700 can all be realized by using off-the-shelf industrial manipulators.

The content of each step will be described in detail below with reference to FIGS. Figures 2 to 9 for details.

[0040] S100. Feeding process: The ratchet ring parts 12, crankshaft parts 11, gasket parts 13, bushing parts 15 and bearing parts 16 are respectively conveyed to the corresponding preset material-taking positions through the ratchet ring feeding mechanism 210, crankshaft feeding mechanism 310, gasket feeding mechanism 410, bushing feeding mechanism 610 and bearing feeding mechanism 710. Among them, the angle of the ratchet ring parts 12 is identified by the first camera 213 of the ratchet ring feeding mechanism 210, and the angle of the crankshaft parts 11 is identified by the second camera 312 of the crankshaft feeding mechanism 310; S200. Material-taking process: The ratchet ring material-taking and assembling mechanism 200, crankshaft material-taking and assembling mechanism 300, gasket material-taking and assembling mechanism 400, bushing material-taking and assembling mechanism 600 and bearing material-taking and assembling mechanism 700 are respectively controlled to move to the corresponding material-taking positions of the ratchet ring feeding mechanism 210, crankshaft feeding mechanism 310, gasket feeding mechanism 410, bushing feeding mechanism 610 and bearing feeding mechanism 710, and the pawl material-taking and assembling mechanism 500 is controlled to rotate to a preset angle for material-taking; S300. Assembly process: The ratchet ring material-taking and assembling mechanism 200, crankshaft material-taking and assembling mechanism 300, gasket material-taking and assembling mechanism 400, bushing material-taking and assembling mechanism 600 and bearing material-taking and assembling mechanism 700 are respectively controlled to move to the corresponding assembly positioning holes 111 of the turntable assembly 100 for discharging and assembling, and the pawl material-taking and assembling mechanism 500 is controlled to rotate above the corresponding assembly positioning holes 111 of the turntable assembly 100 for discharging and assembling. Among them, the ratchet ring material-taking and assembling mechanism 200 and the crankshaft material-taking and assembling mechanism 300 adjust the angles of the ratchet ring parts 12 and the crankshaft parts 11 respectively during the moving process; S400. Pressing process: The pressing mechanism 800 is controlled to press the target workpiece located on the turntable assembly 100.

[0041] In this embodiment, a plurality of assembly positioning holes 111 are provided on the turntable assembly 100 for fixing target parts. By rotating the turntable assembly 100, the assembly positioning holes 111 can be switched between different workstations to realize the synchronous progress of multiple processes. In the conveying link, the ratchet ring feeding mechanism 210, the crankshaft feeding mechanism 310, the gasket feeding mechanism 410, the bushing feeding mechanism 610 and the bearing feeding mechanism 710 are respectively used to convey the ratchet ring part 12, the crankshaft part 11, the gasket part 13, the bushing part 15 and the bearing part 16 to the corresponding preset material taking positions for the subsequent material taking link. Among them, the first camera 213 of the ratchet ring feeding mechanism 210 is used to identify the angle of the ratchet ring part 12, and the second camera 312 of the crankshaft feeding mechanism 310 is used to identify the angle of the crankshaft part 11, so as to confirm whether the angular positions of the ratchet ring part 12 and the crankshaft part 11 match. In the assembly link, the ratchet ring material taking and assembling mechanism 200 and the crankshaft material taking and assembling mechanism 300 can respectively adjust the angles of the ratchet ring part 12 and the crankshaft part 11 during the movement, so that the splines and key grooves of the ratchet ring part 12 and the crankshaft part 11 can match each other during the assembly process, improving the convenience of assembly. In the material taking link and the assembly link, the ratchet ring material taking and assembling mechanism 200, the crankshaft material taking and assembling mechanism 300, the gasket material taking and assembling mechanism 400, the pawl material taking and assembling mechanism 500, the bushing material taking and assembling mechanism 600 and the bearing material taking and assembling mechanism 700 act synchronously, which can realize the synchronous progress of multiple processes and reduce the production time. Among them, the assembly method of the target workpiece can refer to Figure 1 the exploded structure shown. Each material taking and assembling mechanism only needs to place the corresponding parts on the corresponding assembly positioning holes or semi-finished workpieces according to the preset method to complete the assembly of the corresponding workstations. After the assembly link is completed, the pressing link is carried out, which can avoid the impact generated by the pressing mechanism 800 pressing the target workpiece on the turntable assembly 100 from interfering with the turntable assembly 100, thus ensuring the smooth progress of the assembly process. It is worth mentioning that after the material taking link is completed, the corresponding new target parts are respectively moved to their respective corresponding positions through the ratchet ring feeding mechanism 210, the crankshaft feeding mechanism 310, the gasket feeding mechanism 410, the bushing feeding mechanism 610 and the bearing feeding mechanism 710 for the next round of material taking link; and in the pressing link, controlling the ratchet ring material taking and assembling mechanism 200, the crankshaft material taking and assembling mechanism 300, the gasket material taking and assembling mechanism 400, the pawl material taking and assembling mechanism 500, the bushing material taking and assembling mechanism 600 and the bearing material taking and assembling mechanism 700 to execute the material taking link can reduce the waiting time difference between each link, thus improving the production efficiency.

[0042] Through the above solution, different target parts are conveyed to their respective preset positions by the ratchet ring feeding mechanism 210, the crankshaft feeding mechanism 310, the gasket feeding mechanism 410, the bushing feeding mechanism 610, and the bearing feeding mechanism 710, and are respectively picked and assembled by the ratchet ring picking and assembling mechanism 200, the crankshaft picking and assembling mechanism 300, the gasket picking and assembling mechanism 400, the pawl picking and assembling mechanism 500, the bushing picking and assembling mechanism 600, and the bearing picking and assembling mechanism 700. In addition, the target workpiece is pressed by the pressing mechanism 800. Among them, the angles of the ratchet ring part 12 and the crankshaft part 11 are respectively identified and adjusted to facilitate assembly. In this way, the automatic assembly of the target workpiece can be realized, which is beneficial to improving the assembly efficiency.

[0043] Please refer to Figure 5 , the crankshaft feeding mechanism 310 further includes a first picking guide rail 311 and a lifting and rotating jaw module 313. The feeding process includes: The horizontally placed crankshaft part 11 is guided and positioned to the preset position through the first picking guide rail 311; After clamping the crankshaft part 11 by the lifting and rotating jaw module 313, it rises to the preset height position and rotates 90° to adjust the crankshaft part 11 to a vertical placement; The angle of the crankshaft part 11 is identified by the second camera 312.

[0044] Exemplarily, for the convenience of feeding, during the feeding process, the crankshaft part 11 is in a horizontally placed state. When the crankshaft part 11 enters the first picking guide rail 311, the horizontally placed crankshaft part 11 is guided and positioned to the preset position through the first guide rail. For example, the first picking guide rail 311 is inclined relative to the horizontal plane. After the crankshaft part 11 is placed on the first picking guide rail 311, the crankshaft part 11 can roll along the first picking guide rail 311 to the preset position under the drive of its own weight. At this time, the lifting and rotating jaw module 313 is at this preset position. After clamping the crankshaft part 11 by the lifting and rotating jaw module 313, it rises to the preset height position to avoid the interference of the first picking guide rail 311 on the rotation trajectory of the crankshaft part 11. The lifting and rotating jaw module 313 rotates the crankshaft part 11 by 90° to adjust the crankshaft part 11 from the horizontally placed state to the vertically placed state. Then, the angle of the crankshaft part 11 is identified by the second camera 312. The feature for angle identification can be the spline of the crankshaft part 11 or the feature provided on the crankshaft part 11.

[0045] Please refer to Figure 4, the ratchet ring material taking and assembling mechanism 200, the crankshaft material taking and assembling mechanism 300, and the gasket material taking and assembling mechanism 400 are all installed on the first translation module 234. The material taking process includes: driving the ratchet ring material taking and assembling mechanism 200, the crankshaft material taking and assembling mechanism 300, and the gasket material taking and assembling mechanism 400 to move synchronously through the first translation module 234.

[0046] Exemplarily, the first translation module 234 can drive the ratchet ring material taking and assembling mechanism 200, the crankshaft material taking and assembling mechanism 300, and the gasket material taking and assembling mechanism 400 to move synchronously, simplifying the co-directional movement mechanism for driving the ratchet ring material taking and assembling mechanism 200, the crankshaft material taking and assembling mechanism 300, and the gasket material taking and assembling mechanism 400, which is beneficial to reducing the control difficulty. Among them, in some other application examples, the first translation module 234 can be replaced by an XY translation module to achieve the two-way synchronous movement of the ratchet ring material taking and assembling mechanism 200, the crankshaft material taking and assembling mechanism 300, and the gasket material taking and assembling mechanism 400 in the XY horizontal plane.

[0047] Please refer to Figure 6 , the pawl material taking and assembling mechanism 500 includes a first rotating table 501, a fourth lifting module 502, a pressing module 503, a first jaw module 504, and a restraint ring 505. In the material taking process, controlling the pawl material taking and assembling mechanism 500 to rotate to a preset angle for material taking includes: Driving the pressing module 503, the first jaw module 504, and the restraint ring 505 to rise through the fourth lifting module 502; Driving the fourth lifting module 502, the pressing module 503, the first jaw module 504, and the restraint ring 505 to rotate synchronously to a preset angular position through the first rotating table 501; Driving the pressing module 503, the first jaw module 504, and the restraint ring 505 to descend through the fourth lifting module 502 so that the restraint ring 505 is sleeved on the pawl assembly 14; Controlling the first jaw module 504 to clamp the pawl assembly 14, and driving the pawl assembly 14 to lift through the pressing module 503 so that the pawls of the pawl assembly 14 are located within the restraint ring 505.

[0048] Exemplarily, the pressing module 503, the first jaw module 504 and the restraint ring 505 are all mounted on the fourth lifting module 502, the fourth lifting module 502 is mounted on the first rotating table 501, and the first jaw module 504 is mounted on the pressing module 503. In some application examples, the first rotating table 501 may have a first working position and a second working position. The first working position corresponds to the material taking position, and the second working position corresponds to the assembly position, that is, it is adapted to the assembly positioning hole 111 of the turntable assembly 100; or, in some other application examples, the first rotating table 501 may also have an initial position, and the initial position may be set between the first working position and the second working position.

[0049] In the material taking process, the fourth lifting module 502 drives the pressing module 503, the first jaw module 504 and the restraint ring 505 to rise, so that the first jaw module 504 and the restraint ring 505 can be lifted to a position at a preset height to avoid the structures on the rotation path and prevent rotational interference. The first rotating table 501 drives the fourth lifting module 502, the pressing module 503, the first jaw module 504 and the restraint ring 505 to rotate synchronously to a preset angular position, so that the first jaw module 504 and the restraint ring 505 rotate to the first working position. At this time, the first jaw module 504 and the restraint ring 505 are located above the pawl assembly 14. The fourth lifting module 502 drives the pressing module 503, the first jaw module 504 and the restraint ring 505 to descend, so that the restraint ring 505 is sleeved on the pawl assembly 14. At this time, the first jaw module 504 is in an open state and is located on both sides of the pawl assembly 14. Control the first jaw module 504 to clamp the pawl assembly 14, and drive the pawl assembly 14 to rise through the pressing module 503, so that the pawls of the pawl assembly 14 are located within the restraint ring 505, and the restraint ring 505 limits the pawls of the pawl assembly 14 to prevent the pawls from spreading out and interfering with the assembly.

[0050] In the assembly process, control the pawl material taking and assembling mechanism 500 to rotate above the corresponding assembly positioning hole 111 of the turntable assembly 100 for feeding and assembling, including: The fourth lifting module 502 drives the pressing module 503, the first jaw module 504 and the restraint ring 505 to rise; The first rotating table 501 drives the fourth lifting module 502, the pressing module 503, the first jaw module 504 and the restraint ring 505 to rotate synchronously above the corresponding assembly positioning hole 111 of the turntable assembly 100; The fourth lifting module 502 drives the pressing module 503, the first jaw module 504 and the restraint ring 505 to descend to sleeved the pawl assembly 14 on the target semi-finished workpiece located on the turntable assembly 100; Drive the pawl assembly 14 downward by the pressing module 503 to assemble the pawl assembly 14 onto the target semi-finished workpiece; Control the first jaw module 504 to release, and drive the pressing module 503, the first jaw module 504, and the restraint ring 505 to rise by the fourth lifting module 502.

[0051] Exemplarily, when the pawl picking and assembling mechanism 500 holds the pawl assembly 14, driving the pressing module 503, the first jaw module 504, and the restraint ring 505 to rise by the fourth lifting module 502 can cause the pressing module 503, the first jaw module 504, and the restraint ring 505 to rise to a preset height position, avoiding interference during rotation and avoiding interference with the target semi-finished workpiece (such as the crankshaft part 11 assembled through the previous process) on the turntable assembly 100. Drive the fourth lifting module 502, the pressing module 503, the first jaw module 504, and the restraint ring 505 to rotate synchronously to the upper side of the corresponding assembly positioning hole 111 of the turntable assembly 100 by the first rotating table 501. At this time, the pawl assembly 14 is located above the target semi-finished workpiece. Drive the pressing module 503, the first jaw module 504, and the restraint ring 505 to descend by the fourth lifting module 502 to sleave the pawl assembly 14 on the target semi-finished workpiece located on the turntable assembly 100. At this time, the pawl assembly 14 and the target semi-finished workpiece are in a sleeved state but not assembled in place. Drive the pawl assembly 14 downward by the pressing module 503 to assemble the pawl assembly 14 onto the target semi-finished workpiece. For example, move the pawl assembly 14 downward to make the pawl assembly 14 enter the ratchet ring part 12 of the target semi-finished workpiece, and the pawls of the pawl assembly 14 expand outward to abut against the inner wall of the ratchet ring part 12. At this time, the assembly of the pawl assembly 14 is completed. Control the first jaw module 504 to release, and drive the pressing module 503, the first jaw module 504, and the restraint ring 505 to rise by the fourth lifting module 502 to separate the pawl picking and assembling mechanism 500 from the target semi-finished workpiece for the next round of picking operation.

[0052] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 7 , the bushing picking and assembling mechanism 600 includes a second translation module 601, a fifth lifting module 602, and a second jaw module 603. The assembly process includes: When the second jaw module 603 holds the bushing part 15, drive the second jaw module 603 to rise by the fifth lifting module 602; Drive the fifth lifting module 602 and the second jaw module 603 to move synchronously to the upper side of the corresponding assembly positioning hole 111 of the turntable assembly 100 by the second translation module 601; Drive the second jaw module 603 to descend by the fifth lifting module 602 for feeding and assembling; Control the second jaw module 603 to release, and drive the second jaw module 603 to rise through the fifth lifting module 602.

[0053] Exemplarily, in the feeding process, the bushing feeding mechanism 610 transports the bushing part 15 to a preset position, and the bushing picking and assembling mechanism 600 clamps the bushing part 15. The fifth lifting module 602 drives the second jaw module 603 to rise to lift the bushing part 15 to a preset height position to avoid interference between the moving path and the target semi-finished workpiece. The second translation module 601 drives the fifth lifting module 602 and the second jaw module 603 to move synchronously to the upper part of the corresponding assembly positioning hole 111 of the turntable assembly 100. At this time, the bushing part 15 is located above the target semi-finished workpiece. The fifth lifting module 602 drives the second jaw module 603 to descend for feeding and assembling, so that the bushing part 15 is sleeved on the target semi-finished workpiece. Control the second jaw module 603 to release, and drive the second jaw module 603 to rise through the fifth lifting module 602, so that the bushing picking and assembling mechanism 600 disengages from the target semi-finished workpiece.

[0054] Please continue to refer to Figure 2 and Figure 7 , the bearing picking and assembling mechanism 700 includes a third translation module 701, a sixth lifting module 702 and a third jaw module 703. The assembly process includes: When the third jaw module 703 clamps the bearing part 16, drive the third jaw module 703 to rise through the sixth lifting module 702; Drive the sixth lifting module 702 and the third jaw module 703 to move synchronously to the upper part of the corresponding assembly positioning hole 111 of the turntable assembly 100 through the third translation module 701; Drive the third jaw module 703 to descend through the sixth lifting module 702 for feeding and assembling; Control the third jaw module 703 to release, and drive the third jaw module 703 to rise through the sixth lifting module 702.

[0055] Exemplarily, in the feeding process, the bearing feeding mechanism 710 transports the bearing parts 16 to a preset position, and the bearing picking and assembling mechanism 700 clamps the bearing parts 16. Among them, both the bearing feeding mechanism 710 and the bushing feeding mechanism 610 can adopt conveyor belts. The sixth lifting module 702 drives the third jaw module 703 to rise, avoiding interference between the moving path and the target semi-finished workpiece. The third translation module 701 drives the sixth lifting module 702 and the third jaw module 703 to move synchronously above the corresponding assembly positioning hole 111 of the turntable assembly 100. At this time, the bearing parts 16 are located above the target semi-finished workpiece. The sixth lifting module 702 drives the third jaw module 703 to descend for discharging and assembling, so that the bearing parts 16 are sleeved on the target semi-finished workpiece. Control the third jaw module 703 to loosen, and drive the third jaw module 703 to rise through the sixth lifting module 702, so that the bearing picking and assembling mechanism 700 disengages from the target semi-finished workpiece.

[0056] The pressing mechanism 800 includes a pressing component and a pushing component. The pressing process includes: Control the pushing component to abut against the lower part of the turntable assembly 100; Control the pressing component to press the target semi-finished workpiece on the turntable assembly 100 from top to bottom.

[0057] Exemplarily, in the assembly process of the previous process, the parts on the target semi-finished workpiece have been preliminarily assembled. In order to ensure that each part can be installed in place, especially the bushing parts 15 and the bearing parts 16, it is necessary to apply pressure to the target semi-finished workpiece through the pressing mechanism 800 to ensure that each part is installed in place. During the pressing process, a pressure from top to bottom will be applied to the target semi-finished workpiece, and this pressure will also act on the turntable assembly 100. Therefore, a pushing component is arranged below the turntable assembly 100, and controlling the pushing component to abut against the lower part of the turntable assembly 100 can support the turntable assembly 100 and prevent the pressure applied by the pressing component from causing the turntable assembly 100 to lose balance. Among them, please refer to Figure 9 , the pressing component includes a connecting pressure rod 801 and a pressing power component 802. The pressing power component 802 adopts a cylinder or a motor. An avoidance hole 803 suitable for avoiding the crankshaft part 11 is arranged on the pressure rod 801. The pressing power component 802 drives the pressure rod 801 to press down. During the pressing down process, the pressure rod 801 is sleeved on the crankshaft part 11 through the avoidance hole 803, so as to apply pressure to the bushing parts 15 and the bearing parts 16.

[0058] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 9 , the transmission component assembly method further includes: Control the blanking mechanism 900 to grab the target workpiece from the turntable assembly 100 and rotate it to a preset blanking position; Control the rotation of the turntable assembly 100 to switch the working position of the assembly positioning hole 111.

[0059] Exemplarily, after the target semi-finished workpiece is assembled in the previous process, it becomes a finished workpiece, i.e., the target workpiece. A blanking mechanism 900 is also arranged on the circumferential side of the turntable assembly 100. By performing the actions of the blanking link through the blanking mechanism 900, that is, controlling the blanking mechanism 900 to grab the target workpiece from the turntable assembly 100 and rotate to a preset blanking position, the assembled target workpiece can be blanked from the turntable assembly 100. After the target semi-finished workpiece is separated from the turntable assembly 100, the station switching link can be executed, that is, controlling the turntable assembly 100 to rotate to switch the working position of the assembly positioning hole 111. In this way, automatic blanking and station switching can be realized, continuous automatic production can be achieved, and production efficiency can be improved.

[0060] Please continue to refer to Figure 2 and Figure 9 , the blanking mechanism 900 includes a second rotating table 901, a seventh lifting module 902 and a fourth jaw module 903. Controlling the blanking mechanism 900 to grab the target workpiece from the turntable assembly 100 and rotate to a preset blanking position includes: Driving the fourth jaw module 903 to descend by the seventh lifting module 902 and clamping the target workpiece; Driving the fourth jaw module 903 to ascend by the seventh lifting module 902; Driving the seventh lifting module 902 and the fourth jaw module 903 to rotate to a preset angular position by the second rotating table 901; Driving the fourth jaw module 903 to descend to a preset height by the seventh lifting module 902 and then releasing it.

[0061] Illustratively, in some application examples, the second rotating table 901 has a first working position and a second working position, the first working position corresponds to the material picking position, that is, the fourth clamping jaw module 903 is located above the corresponding assembly positioning hole 111 of the turntable assembly 100, and the second working position corresponds to the material unloading position; or, in other application examples, the second rotating table 901 also has an initial position, which is between the first working position and the second working position. When the fourth clamping jaw module 903 is in the first working position, the seventh lifting module 902 drives the fourth clamping jaw module 903 to descend and clamp the target workpiece, so as to clamp the target workpiece; the seventh lifting module 902 drives the fourth clamping jaw module 903 to rise, so as to drive the target workpiece to separate from the turntable assembly 100; the seventh lifting module 902 and the fourth clamping jaw module 903 are driven to rotate to a preset angle position through the second rotating table 901 to transfer the target workpiece to the second working position of the second rotating table 901; the seventh lifting module 902 drives the fourth clamping jaw module 903 to descend to a preset height and then release it, so as to lower the target workpiece to a preset height position for performing subsequent unloading actions.

[0062] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and various changes can be made within the knowledge scope of ordinary technicians in the relevant technical field without departing from the purpose of the present invention.
