[0039] In addition, the technical solutions between the various embodiments of the present invention can be combined with each other, but it must be based on the ability of those of ordinary skill in the art to implement. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be considered that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection required by the present invention.

[0040] Such as Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown in the figure, in one embodiment of the present invention, the sensor socket orientation and insertion device 100 includes a frame 1, a feeding module 2, a carrier 3, a handling module 4, and an orientation picking module 5; the feeding module 2 includes a feeding mechanism 21 and a waiting plate 22 disposed on the frame 1. A receiving groove 221 is formed on the waiting plate 22, and the feeding mechanism 21 is used to place the sensor socket 200 into the receiving groove 221; the carrier 3 is disposed on the frame 1; a discharging groove 31 is formed on the carrier 3; the handling module 4 is disposed on the frame 1; the orientation picking module 5 is connected to the handling module 4, and the orientation picking module 5 includes a driving mechanism 51 and a suction mechanism 52; the handling module 4 is used to move the orientation picking module 5 above the receiving groove 221, the suction mechanism 52 is used to suck the sensor socket 200 placed in the receiving groove 221, and the driving mechanism 51 is used to drive the suction mechanism 52 to rotate, so as to drive the sensor socket 200 to rotate to a preset direction through the suction mechanism 52; the handling module 4 is further used to move the orientation picking module 5 above the discharging groove 31, and the suction mechanism 52 is further used to release the sensor socket 200 and place the sensor socket 200 into the discharging groove 31.

[0041] In the above technical solution, the feeding mechanism 21 places the sensor socket 200 into the receiving groove 221, the handling module 4 moves the orientation picking module 5 above the receiving groove 221, the suction device of the orientation picking module 5 sucks the sensor socket 200 in the receiving groove 221, the handling module 4 moves the orientation picking module 5 above the discharging groove 31, and the driving mechanism 51 drives the suction mechanism 52 to rotate to drive the sensor socket 200 to rotate to a preset direction, adjusts the direction of the sensor socket 200, the suction mechanism 52 releases the sensor socket 200 and places the sensor socket 200 into the discharging groove 31, realizing the orientation placement of the sensor socket, thereby completing a positioning and insertion process. The preset direction is that when the orientation picking module 5 is moved above the discharging groove 31 by the handling module 4, the sensor socket 200 sucked by the orientation picking module 5 rotates until the direction of the sensor socket 200 coincides with the discharging groove 31. The handling module 4 moves the orientation picking module 5 above the receiving groove 221 again, realizing the cycle of the positioning and insertion process; wherein, after the suction mechanism 52 sucks the sensor socket 200, the sequence of moving the sensor socket 200 above the discharging groove 31 and adjusting the direction of the sensor socket 200 does not affect the realization of its function, and in order to improve work efficiency, the direction of the socket 200 can be adjusted while moving the socket 200. During the entire positioning and insertion process, the staff only needs to complete the feeding work of the feeding module 2, and the handling, direction adjustment and insertion operation of the sensor socket 200 are all completed by the sensor socket orientation and insertion device 100, greatly reducing the work intensity and improving the production efficiency; and it can further ensure the direction consistency of the sensor socket 200 and improve the yield of the final product.

[0042] Please refer to Figure 5 、Figure 6 and Figure 7 The suction mechanism 52 includes a mounting seat assembly 53 connected to the transport module 4, a steering suction rod 54 rotatably connected to the mounting seat assembly 53, and a pipe seat orienting plate 55 connected to the mounting seat assembly 53; the driving mechanism 51 is transmission-connected to the steering suction rod 54, one end of the steering suction rod 54 is provided with a suction groove 541 open downward, and the other end is provided with an air inlet hole 542 connected to the air source, and an air flow channel 543 connecting the suction groove 541 and the air inlet hole 542 is formed in the steering suction rod 54; the pipe seat orienting plate 55 is provided with a through hole 551, and the end of the steering suction rod 54 where the suction groove 541 is located is inserted into the through hole 551. The suction groove 541 is connected to the air source, and can generate negative pressure in the suction groove 541 through a vacuum generator to complete the function of absorbing the sensor tube seat 200. The tube seat orientation plate 55 can limit the steering suction rod 54 and control the action surface of the suction groove 541, thereby ensuring the stability of the steering suction rod 54 in absorbing the sensor tube seat 200, and avoiding the deviation of the final positioning angle of the sensor tube seat 200 or even the phenomenon of the sensor tube seat 200 falling due to unstable suction when the driving mechanism 51 drives the steering suction rod 54 to rotate relative to the mounting seat assembly 53. Since the steering suction rod 54 needs to rotate relative to the mounting seat assembly 53 to complete the angle adjustment of the sensor tube seat 200, in order to simplify the arrangement of the soft air pipe, a high-speed rotating pneumatic joint can be connected at the air inlet 542.

[0043] Please refer to Figure 9 and Figure 11 The sensor tube holder 200 includes a base 201 and a pin 202 inserted on the base 201. A positioning protrusion 203 is formed on one side of the base 201. A limiting protrusion 552 is provided on the edge of the tube holder orientation plate 55 near the through hole 551. When the sensor tube holder 200 rotates to a preset direction, the limiting protrusion 552 abuts against the positioning protrusion 203. The steering suction rod 54 drives the sensor tube holder 200 to rotate until the positioning protrusion 203 of the sensor tube holder 200 abuts against the limiting protrusion 552 of the tube holder orientation plate 55. At this time, the sensor tube holder 200 rotates to the preset direction. The limiting protrusion 552 cooperates with the positioning protrusion 203 to ensure the consistency of the rotation angle of the sensor tube holder 200 each time, further improving the position accuracy of the sensor tube holder 200 when it is put into the box, and facilitating the operation of subsequent steps.

[0044] Please see again Figure 5 and Figure 6, the mounting seat assembly 53 and the socket orientation plate 55 are connected by an adjusting assembly 56. The adjusting assembly 56 includes an adjusting nut 561 and an adjusting guide rod 562. The adjusting nut 561 is arranged on the mounting seat assembly 53. A guiding hole 553 is formed in the socket orientation plate 55. The adjusting guide rod 562 includes a threaded section 5621, a limiting portion 5622 and a guiding section 5623 which are connected in sequence. The threaded section 5621 is in threaded connection with the adjusting nut 561. The guiding section 5623 is inserted into the guiding hole 553, and the limiting portion 5622 abuts against the socket orientation plate 55. By rotating the threaded section 5621 relative to the adjusting nut 561, the distance between the socket orientation plate 55 and the mounting seat assembly 53 and the levelness of the side surface of the socket orientation plate 55 corresponding to the suction groove 541 are adjusted, facilitating the turning of the suction rod 54 after the suction mechanism 52 is carried to the upper part of the receiving groove 221 to complete the suction of the sensor socket 200. Specifically, a threaded hole corresponding to the position of the guiding hole 553 is formed on one side of the socket orientation plate 55. The guiding section 5623 is inserted into the guiding hole 553, and a set screw is screwed into the threaded hole to fix the adjusting guide rod 562.

[0045] The driving mechanism 51 includes a motor 511, a first synchronous pulley 512, a synchronous belt 513 and a second synchronous pulley 514. The first synchronous pulley 512 is connected to the output shaft of the motor 511. The second synchronous pulley 514 is sleeved on the turning suction rod 54. The synchronous belt 513 is wound around the peripheries of the first synchronous pulley 512 and the second synchronous pulley 514 and is in transmission connection with the first synchronous pulley 512 and the second synchronous pulley 514. The motor 511 drives the first synchronous pulley 512 to rotate, and the first synchronous pulley 512 drives the second synchronous pulley 514 to rotate through the synchronous belt 513 so that the turning suction rod 54 drives the sensor socket 200 to rotate. By controlling the rotation duration and speed of the motor 511, the rotation angle of the sensor socket 200 can be controlled, and the meshing transmission of the first synchronous pulley 512, the synchronous belt 513 and the second synchronous pulley 514 can reduce the error of the rotation angle of the sensor socket 200 each time.

[0046] Please refer to Figure 8, the number of the turning suction rods 54 is multiple. The number of the second synchronous wheels 514 is the same as that of the turning suction rods 54 and they are arranged in one-to-one correspondence. The synchronous belt 513 is wound around the outer periphery of the first synchronous wheel 512 and multiple second synchronous wheels 514 and is in transmission connection with the first synchronous wheel 512 and multiple second synchronous wheels 514. The suction mechanism 52 further includes a confluence plate 57. Air inlets 571 communicated with the air source are formed on both opposite sides of the confluence plate 57. A confluence channel 572 communicating the two air inlets 571 is formed in the confluence plate 57. The confluence plate 57 is further provided with multiple confluence holes 573 communicated with the confluence channel 572. The multiple confluence holes 573 are in one-to-one correspondence and communication with the multiple air inlet holes 542. The multiple turning suction rods 54 can simultaneously suck and load multiple sensor sockets 200 into the box, or suck them individually and load multiple of them into the box simultaneously to further improve the efficiency of directional loading into the box. One synchronous belt 513 drives multiple second synchronous wheels 514 to rotate simultaneously, and the rotation angles of the multiple turning suction rods 54 remain the same. And the multiple air inlet holes 542 are confluent to the confluence channel 572 through the corresponding confluence holes 573 and then connected to the air source, thereby ensuring that the air negative pressures of the respective turning suction rods 54 are the same and ensuring a good suction effect.

[0047] Please refer to again Figure 3 , the incoming material mechanism 21 includes a vibrating bowl 211 and a linear vibrating track 212 arranged on the frame 1. The material waiting plate 22 is slidably arranged on the frame 1, and multiple material receiving grooves 221 are formed on the material waiting plate 22. The number of the material receiving grooves 221 is the same as that of the turning suction rods 54. The feeding end of the linear vibrating track 212 is butted against the vibrating bowl 211. The material waiting plate 22 slides relative to the frame 1 so that the multiple material receiving grooves 221 are sequentially butted against the discharging end of the linear vibrating track 212. To simultaneously suck and load multiple sensor sockets 200 into the box, the number of the material receiving grooves 221 is set to be the same as that of the turning suction rods 54. A large number of sensor sockets 200 are placed in the vibrating bowl 211. The vibrating bowl 211 vibrates to screen the sensor sockets 200, so that the sensor sockets 200 with good shapes are conveyed to the feeding end of the linear vibrating track 212 at a consistent angle, and then are conveyed to the material receiving grooves 221 from the discharging end of the linear vibrating track 212. The material waiting plate 22 slides a preset distance to butt the next material receiving groove 221 against the linear vibrating track 212, and this operation is repeated until all the material receiving grooves 221 are filled with sensor sockets 200. Thus, the screening of the sensor sockets 200 is realized, preventing the damaged or deformed sensor sockets 200 from entering the carrier 3 and affecting the subsequent working steps. And the directions of the sensor sockets 200 tend to be the same when they are conveyed to the material receiving grooves 221.

[0048] The number of the incoming material mechanisms 21 can be multiple. After completing one cycle of directional box loading, the handling module 4 transports the directional material taking module 5 above the waiting material plate 22 of the next incoming material mechanism 21 in a preset order. When a plurality of material receiving slots 221 are provided on a waiting material plate 22, the time for all the material receiving slots 221 on one waiting material plate 22 to be filled with the sensor socket 200 is greatly extended. By increasing the number of the incoming material mechanisms 21, the waiting time after the directional material taking module 5 is transported above the waiting material plate 22 is reduced.

[0049] Please refer to again Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, the second synchronous pulley 514 includes a tooth portion 5141 and a locking portion 5142 which are connected to each other. The tooth portions 5141 of any two adjacent second synchronous pulleys 514 are arranged flush with each other. The locking portions 5142 of any two adjacent second synchronous pulleys 514 are respectively arranged on both sides of the synchronous belt 513 to limit the synchronous belt 513 between any two adjacent locking portions 5142. That is, for the second synchronous pulley 514 on one steering suction rod 54, the tooth portion 5141 is on the upper side and the locking portion 5142 is on the lower side, while for the second synchronous pulley 514 of the adjacent steering suction rod 54, the tooth portion 5141 is on the lower side and the locking portion 5142 is on the upper side. The flush arrangement of the tooth portions 5141 of the second synchronous pulleys 514 facilitates the simultaneous engagement of one synchronous belt 513 with a plurality of second synchronous pulleys 514. At the same time, the deviation range of the synchronous belt 513 is limited by the locking portions 5142 arranged in a staggered manner up and down, preventing the synchronous belt 513 from disengaging from the second synchronous pulley 514 and ensuring that there is sufficient meshing driving force to push the second synchronous pulley 514 and drive the steering suction rod 54 and the sensor socket 200 to rotate.

[0050] The mounting seat assembly 53 includes a directional substrate 531 connected to the handling module 4, and a first mounting seat 532 and a second mounting seat 533 which are connected to the directional substrate 531 and arranged oppositely. The steering suction rod 54 sequentially passes through the second mounting seat 533 and the first mounting seat 532 and is rotatably connected to the second mounting seat 533 and the first mounting seat 532. The socket directional plate 55 is connected to the second mounting seat 533. The directional substrate 531 serves as a connecting function. The steering suction rod 54 sequentially passes through the second mounting seat 533 and the first mounting seat 532 to determine the setting direction of the steering suction rod 54 and limit the sway of the steering suction rod 54. Among them, the motor 511 is arranged on the side of the directional substrate 531 opposite to the steering suction rod 54 through the motor mounting plate 63, so that both sides of the directional substrate 531 tend to be balanced.

[0051] Specifically, the end of the turning suction rod 54 where the suction groove 541 is located is inserted into the through hole 551 of the socket orientation plate 55. The turning suction rod 54 sequentially passes through the second mounting seat 533 and the first mounting seat 532. The air inlet 571 is located above the first mounting seat 532, and the air inlet 571 is communicated with the air source through the confluence hole 573. Two adjusting components 56 are arranged at both ends of the socket orientation plate 55 and connected to the second mounting seat 533. By adjusting the adjusting guide rod 562, it is ensured that the side of the socket orientation plate 55 corresponding to the suction groove 541 tends to be flush with the upper end surface of the sensor socket 200 in the material receiving groove 221, ensuring the smoothness of the orientation material taking module 5 for picking up the sensor socket 200. Moreover, when adjusting, only the socket orientation plate 55 needs to be precisely adjusted, instead of individually adjusting the acting surface of the suction groove 541 of the turning suction rod 54, greatly simplifying the adjustment and correction work.

[0052] The handling module 4 includes a robotic arm 41 and a connecting flange 42. The connecting end of the robotic arm 41 is installed on the frame 1. The connecting flange 42 is sleeved on the free end of the robotic arm 41 and connected to the orientation base plate 531. While the robotic arm 41 completes the horizontal handling of the orientation material taking module 5, it can realize the up and down movement of the orientation material taking module 5, facilitating the orientation material taking module 5 to complete the picking and placing of the sensor. The orientation base plate 531 is connected to the connecting flange 42 through a connecting rod 62. One end of the connecting rod 62 is connected to the connecting flange 42, and the other end is connected to the orientation base plate 531. The connecting flange 42 is provided with a locking hole for the free end of the robotic arm 41 to pass through, thus ensuring the connection tightness between the handling module 4 and the orientation material taking module 5.

[0053] A protective cover 61 is further provided on the frame 1. The incoming material module 2, the carrier 3, the handling module 4, and the orientation material taking module 5 are all arranged inside the protective cover 61. The protective cover 61 can play a role in dust prevention and preventing debris from falling, and at the same time prevent staff from approaching the internal mechanism during the normal operation of the equipment, protecting the personal safety of the staff.

[0054] Please refer to Figure 10 , the material placing groove 31 opened on the carrier 3 is set to match the shape of the base 201, and a through hole for the pin 202 to pass through is opened at the bottom. A positioning groove 32 matching the positioning protrusion 203 is formed at one side edge. The orientation material taking module 5 places it in the material placing groove 31, and the positioning protrusion 203 is placed in the positioning groove 32.

[0055] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention, and do not limit the patent scope of the present invention accordingly. Any equivalent structural transformation made under the inventive concept of the present invention by using the content of the specification and drawings of the present invention, or directly / indirectly applied in other related technical fields, is included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.
