Abstract

This invention relates to a double-headed wire crimping and inserting device. The device uses a first crimping mechanism and a first inserting mechanism in a first region to crimp and insert one end of a wire. After stripping and cutting by a wire stripping and cutting mechanism, the wire enters a soldering and flipping mechanism for soldering the other end before being sent out. Alternatively, the wire can be directly fed into a combined translation clamping mechanism in a second region where a second crimping mechanism and a second inserting mechanism sequentially crimp and insert the other end of the wire. This double-headed wire crimping and inserting device integrates two sets of crimping, two sets of inserting, and soldering processes. Its rational structure allows for the simultaneous crimping and inserting of both ends of a wire, or crimping one end and soldering the other, significantly reducing the cost of combining different equipment and improving production efficiency.

Detailed Implementation

[0028] To make the objectives, features, and advantages of this invention more apparent and understandable, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this invention, and not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this invention without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this invention.

[0029] Please see Figure 1-2 The double-ended terminal crimping and inserting device of the present invention includes a first region having a wire feeding mechanism 1, a first terminal crimping mechanism 6 and a first inserting shell mechanism 7, a second region having a combined translation clamp mechanism 4, a second terminal crimping mechanism 8 and a second inserting shell mechanism 9, a wire stripping and cutting mechanism 2 disposed between the first region and the second region, and a soldering and flipping mechanism 3 disposed opposite to the wire stripping and cutting mechanism 2; the wire feeding mechanism 1 sequentially and slidably feeds wires between the first terminal crimping mechanism 6, the first inserting shell mechanism 7 and the wire stripping and cutting mechanism 2, and the combined translation clamp mechanism 4 receives wires from the soldering and flipping mechanism 3 and sequentially and slidably feeds wires between the second terminal crimping mechanism 8 and the second inserting shell mechanism 9.

[0030] Compared to existing technologies, the double-headed terminal crimping and shell insertion equipment of the present invention performs the terminal crimping and shell insertion process at one end of the wire through the first terminal crimping mechanism 6 and the first shell insertion mechanism 7 in the first area. After the wire is cut and stripped by the wire stripping and cutting mechanism 2, the wire enters the soldering and flipping mechanism 3 for soldering the other end before being sent out. Alternatively, the wire can be directly fed into the combined translation clamping mechanism 4 by the soldering and flipping mechanism 3, where the second terminal crimping mechanism 8 and the second shell insertion mechanism 9 in the second area sequentially perform the terminal crimping and shell insertion process at the other end of the wire. The double-headed terminal crimping and shell insertion equipment of the present invention integrates two sets of terminal crimping, two sets of shell insertion, and soldering processes. The structure is reasonably designed and can complete the terminal crimping and shell insertion operations at both ends of the wire or the terminal crimping and soldering operations at one end and the other end in one go, which greatly saves the cost of combining various equipment and improves production efficiency.

[0031] Please refer to further information. Figure 3-4The wire stripping and cutting mechanism 2 includes a wire stripping bracket 21, a power output component 22, an upper wire stripping seat 23, and a lower wire stripping seat 24. The power output component 22 is fixed on the wire stripping bracket 21. The upper wire stripping seat 23 and the lower wire stripping seat 24 are respectively connected to the two movable ends of the power output component 22, and the upper wire stripping seat 23 and the lower wire stripping seat 24 move closer to each other or further away from each other under the drive of the power output component 22. The upper wire stripping seat 23 includes a first wire stripping knife 231, a first cutting knife 232, and a second wire stripping knife 233 in sequence. The lower wire stripping seat 24 includes a third wire stripping knife 241 that is opposite to the first wire stripping knife 231, a second cutting knife 242 that is opposite to the first cutting knife 232, and a fourth wire stripping knife 243 that is opposite to the second wire stripping knife 233.

[0032] Compared to existing technologies, the wire stripping and cutting mechanism 2 of the present invention achieves the cutting and repositioning work between the upper wire stripping seat 23 and the lower wire stripping seat 24 through the power output component 22. The wire stripping and cutting mechanism 2 of the present invention is disposed between the wire feeding mechanism 1 and the soldering and flipping mechanism 3. When the wire is placed in the upper wire stripping seat 23 and the lower wire stripping seat 24, the first wire stripping blade 231 and the third wire stripping blade 241 perform surface cutting in the direction of the soldering and flipping mechanism 3, and the second wire stripping blade 233 and the fourth wire stripping blade 243 perform surface cutting in the direction of the wire feeding mechanism 1. After the first cutting blade 232 and the second cutting blade 242 cut the wire, the two sections of wire are respectively extracted by the soldering and flipping mechanism 3 and the wire feeding mechanism 1, completing the stripping process. The wire stripping and cutting mechanism 2 of the present invention achieves three processes in one step through the cooperation of the first wire stripping knife 231 and the third wire stripping knife 241, the cooperation of the second wire stripping knife 233 and the fourth wire stripping knife 243, and the cooperation of the first cutting knife 232 and the second cutting knife 242, which greatly improves the working efficiency of wire stripping and cutting.

[0033] In this embodiment, the power output assembly 22 includes a motor 221, a forward and reverse lead screw 222, a first connecting member 223, and a second connecting member 224. The motor 221 is fixed to the wire stripping bracket 21. The forward and reverse lead screw 222 is rotatably fixed to the motor 221. Both ends of the forward and reverse lead screw 222 have external thread structures in opposite directions. The first connecting rod is fixedly connected to the upper wire stripping seat 23 and slidably fixed to one external thread structure of the forward and reverse lead screw 222. The second connecting rod is fixedly connected to the lower wire stripping seat 24 and slidably fixed to the other external thread structure of the forward and reverse lead screw 222. The motor 221 drives the forward and reverse lead screw 222 to rotate. One end of the forward and reverse lead screw 222 has a clockwise external thread structure, and the other end has a counterclockwise external thread structure. This allows one lead screw to drive force in two directions, reducing the number of motors 221 used, saving costs, and improving operational consistency.

[0034] In this embodiment, the first connecting member 223 includes a first connecting nut 2231 and a first connecting plate 2232. The first connecting nut 2231 is fixedly connected to the first connecting plate 2232, and the first connecting nut 2231 is sleeved on an external thread structure. The first connecting plate 2232 is fixedly connected to the upper wire stripper 23. The second connecting member 224 includes a second connecting nut 2241 and a second connecting plate 2242. The second connecting nut 2241 is fixedly connected to the second connecting plate 2242, and the second connecting nut 2241 is sleeved on another external thread structure. The second connecting plate 2242 is fixedly connected to the lower wire stripper 24. Both the first connecting nut 2231 and the second connecting nut 2241 are provided with internal thread structures. When the forward and reverse lead screws 222 rotate, the first connecting nut 2231 and the second connecting nut 2241 will move in opposite directions, thereby realizing the closing or separation of the upper wire stripper 23 and the lower wire stripper 24.

[0035] In this embodiment, the power output assembly 22 further includes a first slider 225, a second slider 226, and a sliding guide rail 227. The sliding guide rail 227 is fixed on the wire stripping bracket 21. The first connector 223 is slidably connected to the sliding guide rail 227 via the first slider 225, and the second connector 224 is slidably connected to the sliding guide rail 227 via the second slider 226. The arrangement of the first slider 225, the second slider 226, and the sliding guide rail 227 makes the upper wire stripper 23 and the lower wire stripper 24 more stable during movement.

[0036] In this embodiment, the upper end of the upper wire stripper 23 is provided with an air blowing cover 25, and the lower end of the lower wire stripper 24 is provided with a suction groove 26 opposite to the air blowing cover 25. The excess wire sheath produced by the first wire stripper 231 and the third wire stripper 241, as well as the excess wire sheath produced by the second wire stripper 233 and the fourth wire stripper 243, can be directly blown into the suction groove 26 through the air in the air blowing cover 25, thereby ensuring that the surface of the equipment is clean and tidy.

The wire stripping translation assembly 35 and the wire stripper assembly 33 are rotatably connected to the tinning and flipping assembly 36. The tinning groove 37 is disposed below the wire stripper assembly 33.

[0038] Compared to existing technologies, the soldering and flipping mechanism 3 of this invention uses a wire clamp assembly 32 to pull the wire from the wire stripping and cutting mechanism 2 into the soldering station. Then, the wire stripping clamp assembly 33 pulls the wire with one end inserted into the insulating shell and the other end cut off, thus achieving the stripping process at the other end of the wire. The soldering and flipping assembly 36 drives the wire stripping clamp assembly 33 to rotate into the soldering tank 37, thereby achieving the soldering process at the other end of the wire in the wire stripping clamp assembly 33. This invention, through the cooperative use of the wire stripping clamp assembly 33 and the wire clamp assembly 32, effectively connects with the wire stripping and cutting mechanism 2, making the stripping and soldering processes more seamlessly integrated, saving time and improving work efficiency.

[0040] In this embodiment, the wire stripping translation assembly 35 includes a wire stripping translation motor 351, a wire stripping screw 352, and a wire stripping nut 353. The wire stripping clamp assembly 33 is fixed to the wire stripping nut 353, and the wire stripping nut 353 is slidably fixed to the wire stripping screw 352. The wire stripping nut 353 passes through the rotating disk 363 via a connector and is fixedly connected to the wire stripping clamp assembly 33.

[0041] In this embodiment, the wire drawing translation assembly 34 includes a wire drawing translation motor 341, a conveyor belt 342, a wire drawing connecting arm 343, and a wire drawing guide rail 344. The translation motor and the wire drawing guide rail 344 are both fixed to the soldering fixing base 31. The conveyor belt 342 moves via multiple wire drawing synchronous pulleys 345 driven by the wire drawing translation motor 341. One end of the wire drawing connecting arm 343 is fixed to the conveyor belt 342, and the other end can slide on the wire drawing guide rail 344. The wire drawing clamp assembly 32 is fixed to the wire drawing connecting arm 343. The transmission belt is wound around the multiple wire drawing synchronous pulleys 345. Driven by the driving pulley from the wire drawing translation motor 341, the driven pulley rotates with the rotation of the transmission belt.

[0043] In this embodiment, the cable clamp assembly 32 includes an upper cable clamp 321, a lower cable clamp 322, and a cable clamp cylinder 323. The upper cable clamp 321 and the lower cable clamp 322 separate or close under the action of the cable clamp cylinder 323.

[0044] Please refer to further information. Figure 8-9 The combined translation clamping mechanism 4 of the present invention includes a translation clamping body 41, a horizontal moving component 42, a vertical moving component 43, and a combing component 44. The vertical moving component 43 is fixed to the movable end of the horizontal moving component 42. The translation clamping body 41 includes an upper clamping plate 411 and a lower clamping plate 412. The upper clamping plate 411 and the lower clamping plate 412 are respectively movably connected to the vertical moving component 43 and realize the separation and closing between the upper clamping plate 411 and the lower clamping plate 412. The combing component 44 is disposed at the docking point of the upper clamping plate 411 and the lower clamping plate 412.

[0045] Compared to existing technologies, the combined translation clamp mechanism 4 of the present invention achieves the horizontal movement of the translation clamp 41 through the horizontal moving component, so as to realize the switching between different work positions. The vertical moving component 43 can realize the opening and closing between the upper clamp 411 and the lower clamp 412, thereby realizing the picking and placing of wires by the translation clamp 41. The combing component 44 can comb the wires placed between the upper clamp 411 and the lower clamp 412, so that the wires can be better aligned with the working positions of each work position, and a stable and precise wire movement process can be achieved.

[0046] In this embodiment, the combing assembly 44 includes a combing cylinder 441 and a combing plate 442. The combing plate 442 has teeth for combing the wire to be processed. The combing plate 442 is fixed on the vertical moving assembly 43. The combing plate 442 extends from the upper clamping plate 411, and the teeth extend to the joint between the upper clamping plate 411 and the lower clamping plate 412. Each tooth on the combing plate 442 corresponds to one wire. After the wire is clamped between the upper clamping plate 411 and the lower clamping plate 412, the combing plate 442, driven by the combing cylinder 441, combs the wire under each tooth one by one, thereby ensuring that the wire can enter the next work station more accurately.

[0047] In this embodiment, the vertical moving component 43 includes a vertical moving cylinder 431, a first clamping rack 432, a second clamping rack 433, and a movable gear 434.

The movable gear 434 meshes between the first toothed groove and the second toothed groove. The vertical moving cylinder 431 is connected to the first clamping rack 432.

[0048] Specifically, when the first rack 432 moves upward under the drive of the vertical moving cylinder 431, the movable gear 434 rotates counterclockwise under the drive of the first toothed groove, applying a downward force to the second toothed groove, thereby driving the second rack 433 to move downward.

[0049] In this embodiment, the horizontal moving assembly 42 includes a horizontal moving motor 421, a horizontal lead screw 422, and a horizontal connecting seat 423. The horizontal lead screw 422 is connected to the power end of the horizontal moving motor 421, and the horizontal connecting seat 423 is helically connected to the horizontal lead screw 422. The vertical moving assembly 43 is fixed on the horizontal connecting seat 423, and the horizontal connecting seat 423 moves via a horizontal moving slide rail 424. The horizontal connecting seat 423 moves horizontally during the rotation of the horizontal lead screw 422, thereby driving the vertical moving assembly 43 and the translation clamp 41 to move horizontally.

[0050] Please refer to further information.

[0051] Preferably, the reverse flipping mechanism 5 includes a reverse support 51, a reverse rotation motor 52, a reverse clamp 54 holding cylinder 53, and a reverse clamp 54. The reverse rotation motor 52 is fixed on the reverse support 51. The reverse clamp 54 holding cylinder 53 is rotatably connected to the reverse rotation motor 52, and the reverse clamp 54 and the reverse clamp 54 holding cylinder 53 are movably connected to open and close. The reverse clamp 54 is controlled by the reverse clamp 54 holding cylinder 53 to open and close, thereby fixing the wire. The reverse rotation motor 52 achieves a 180-degree flip of the wire.

[0052] Preferably, the double-headed end-cutting and inserting device further includes a wire unloading clamp 10 and a horizontal output belt 11. Both the wire unloading clamp 10 and the horizontal output belt 11 are located in the second area, and the wire unloading clamp 10 moves between the combined translation clamp mechanism 4 and the horizontal output belt 11. The wire unloading clamp 10 is a four-axis robot structure that can move arbitrarily in the plane, which facilitates the transfer of the processed wire to the horizontal output belt 11. The output of the wire through the horizontal output belt 11 makes it easier to package the wire.

[0053] It should be noted that the first terminal crimping mechanism 6 and the second terminal crimping mechanism 8 in this invention have the same structure. Both the terminal crimping mechanism and the wire feeding mechanism 1 are common and mature terminal crimping machine equipment in the prior art, so they will not be described in detail here.

[0054] The first insert shell mechanism 7 and the second insert shell mechanism 9 in this invention have the same structure.

[0055] Specifically, the insert shell mechanism includes a feeding vibratory plate, a shell structure, an ejector pin upper mold structure, and a shell-penetrating structure. The shell structure includes a vibratory plate conversion assembly, a feeding assembly, and a feeding rod. The ejector pin upper mold structure includes an upper mold assembly, a second threading assembly, and a shell-penetrating guide hole. The shell-penetrating structure includes a terminal wire fixing assembly and a first threading assembly. One end of the vibratory plate conversion assembly is connected to the discharge groove of the feeding vibratory plate, and the other end is connected to the feeding rod. The feeding assembly drives the feeding rod to slide between the vibratory plate conversion assembly and the shell-penetrating guide hole. The shell-penetrating guide hole is fixed on the upper mold assembly and connected to the terminal wire fixing assembly under the drive of the second threading assembly. The terminal wire fixing assembly is slidably connected to the first threading assembly. The feeding rod has multiple sets of first slots for accommodating shells, and the shell-penetrating guide hole has multiple sets of second slots for accommodating shells.

[0056] By using a vibratory feeder conversion assembly, the plastic shells at the discharge slot of the vibratory feeder are sequentially transferred to multiple sets of first slots on the feeding rod. Then, the feeding assembly pushes the feeding rod parallel to the shell-piercing guide hole. The upper mold assembly transfers the plastic shells from the first slots to the second slots. The terminal wire fixing assembly inputs the terminal wire to be threaded through the plastic shells. The first threading assembly drives the terminal wire into the plastic shell in the second slot, and the second threading assembly pushes the plastic shell out of the second slot, thus completing the threading process for the entire row of plastic shells. This invention's automatic shell insertion mechanism has a precise structure, a high degree of automation, and can simultaneously perform multiple sets of wire threading operations, greatly improving the efficiency and accuracy of the shell threading process.

[0058] The above is a description of the technical solution provided by the present invention. For those skilled in the art, based on the ideas of the embodiments of the present invention, there will be changes in the specific implementation methods and application scope. Therefore, the content of this specification should not be construed as a limitation of the present invention.
