Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of inductor assembly, and in particular to an inductor assembly mechanism. Background Art

[0002] Electronic devices in cars are powered by batteries or generators. Voltage instability is likely to occur when the car is powered on or off, which can cause damage to the car's circuits in severe cases. Therefore, existing cars are equipped with voltage stabilization modules to stabilize the current.

[0003] Among them, the voltage stabilizing module will use an inductor, which includes a magnetic core wrapped with a coil. The outside of the magnetic core is surrounded by a square jacket to provide protection and shielding. A square boss is provided at the bottom of the magnetic core, and the lower surface of the jacket cooperates with the upper surface of the boss to realize the assembly of the magnetic core and the jacket.

[0004] Due to the large difference in the appearance of the magnetic core and the outer jacket, in the prior art, when combining the magnetic core and the outer jacket, two sets of clamps need to be set in the assembly mechanism to clamp the magnetic core and the outer jacket respectively and assemble the two together, which has a high production cost. In addition, the existing assembly mechanism cannot correct the direction of the magnetic core and the outer jacket during assembly. Since the lower parts of the magnetic core and the outer jacket are square, the magnetic core and the outer jacket that have not been corrected are easily misaligned after assembly, thereby affecting the assembly accuracy. Summary of the invention

[0005] The present invention aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. To this end, the present invention provides an inductor assembly mechanism that can reduce the production cost during the assembly process of the magnetic core and the outer shell, while also ensuring the assembly accuracy of the magnetic core and the outer shell after assembly.

[0007] At least the following beneficial effects are achieved: the negative pressure tube on the clamp can move in the vertical direction and adsorb the upper surface of the magnetic core, so that the clamp can absorb and move the magnetic core; the clamping claws on the clamp are provided with two front-to-back symmetrical clamping planes and the two clamping planes are perpendicular to each other, and the clamping planes can fit on the side of the square outer jacket or the side of the square boss at the bottom of the magnetic core, so that the direction of the magnetic core and the outer jacket can be corrected, and the clamp can also clamp and move the outer jacket, and finally the upper surface of the lower part of the magnetic core fits on the lower surface of the outer jacket to realize the bonding assembly of the magnetic core and the outer jacket.

[0029] Reference Figures 1 to 7 The present invention discloses an inductor assembly mechanism, which includes a frame 1, a dispensing table 2, a mounting table 3, a fixture 6 and a moving mechanism 7.

[0030] Among them, the dispensing table 2 is installed on the frame 1 and contains glue. The mounting table 3 is installed on the frame 1 and can place the jacket 4 and the magnetic core 5. The clamp 6 includes a negative pressure tube 61 and two clamping jaws 62. The two clamping jaws 62 are symmetrical to each other and can move in the left and right directions. Each clamping jaw 62 is vertically provided with two front-to-back symmetrical clamping planes 621. The two clamping planes 621 on the same clamping jaw 62 are perpendicular to each other. The clamping planes 621 can correspond to the side of the jacket 4 or the side of the lower part of the magnetic core 5. The negative pressure tube 61 is arranged in the symmetry plane of the two clamping jaws 62 and can move in the vertical direction. The moving mechanism 7 is installed on the frame 1, which can drive the clamp 6 to and fro between the dispensing table 2 and the mounting table 3.

[0031] It can be understood that the negative pressure tube 61 on the clamp 6 can move in the vertical direction and adsorb the upper surface of the magnetic core 5, so that the clamp 6 can absorb and move the magnetic core 5; the clamping claw 62 on the clamp 6 is provided with two front-to-back symmetrical clamping planes 621 and the two clamping planes 621 are perpendicular to each other, and the clamping planes 621 can be attached to the side of the square outer shell 4 or the side of the square boss at the bottom of the magnetic core 5, and the direction of the magnetic core 5 and the outer shell 4 can be corrected, and the clamp 6 can also clamp and move the outer shell 4, and finally the upper surface of the lower part of the magnetic core 5 is attached to the lower surface of the outer shell 4 to realize the bonding assembly of the magnetic core 5 and the outer shell 4. The inductor assembly mechanism in the present invention can clamp the magnetic core 5 and the outer shell 4, saving production costs, and can also complete the correction of the direction of the magnetic core 5 and the outer shell 4, ensuring the assembly accuracy of the magnetic core 5 and the outer shell 4.

[0032] Specifically, on the one hand, the two clamping jaws 62 on the clamp 6 move in opposite directions, the negative pressure tube 61 moves down and adsorbs the upper surface of the magnetic core 5, and then drives the magnetic core 5 to move up. At this time, the two clamping jaws 62 move toward each other, and each clamping plane 621 corresponds to each side of the lower part of the magnetic core 5 to correct the direction of the magnetic core 5. Finally, after the clamp 6 places the magnetic core 5 at the corresponding position on the mounting table 3 under the drive of the moving mechanism 7, the negative pressure tube 61 disconnects the negative pressure source, and the two clamping jaws 62 move in opposite directions; on the other hand, the two clamping jaws 62 move toward each other, and each clamping plane 621 corresponds to each side of the jacket 4 to clamp the jacket 4 and correct its direction. Driven by the moving mechanism 7, the clamp 6 moves the jacket 4 to the glue dispensing table 2 and dips the lower surface of the jacket 4 in glue, and then drives the jacket 4 to be mounted on the above-mentioned magnetic core 5, so that the upper surface of the lower part of the magnetic core 5 fits with the lower surface of the jacket 4, thereby realizing the assembly of the magnetic core 5 and the jacket 4.

[0033] Reference Figure 5 In some embodiments of the present invention, a limiting surface 622 is provided on the clamping jaw 62, and the limiting surface 622 is perpendicular to the clamping plane 621. The clamping plane 621 intersects with the limiting surface 622 at the upper boundary of the clamping plane 621. When the clamping jaw 62 clamps the outer jacket 4, the upper surface of the outer jacket 4 will abut against the limiting surface 622, thereby limiting the position of the outer jacket 4 relative to the clamping jaw 62 when clamped.

[0034] Reference Figure 3 , Figure 4 In some embodiments of the present invention, an avoidance groove 623 is provided between two clamping planes 621 on the same clamping jaw 62. When the clamping jaw 62 clamps and corrects the outer cover 4, or corrects the magnetic core 5, the avoidance groove 623 can avoid the corners of the outer cover 4 and the magnetic core 5, so that the clamping jaw 62 can clamp or correct the outer cover 4 and the magnetic core 5 more stably.

[0035] Reference Figure 4 In some embodiments of the present invention, a connecting block 63 is further included, and the left and right ends of the connecting block 63 are respectively connected to the two clamping jaws 62 through a linkage mechanism. The connecting block 63 can move in the vertical direction and can drive the two clamping jaws 62 to move toward or in the opposite direction in the left and right directions through the linkage mechanism. Among them, the linkage mechanism includes a mutually cooperating inclined block 631 and an inclined groove. The inclined block 631 is arranged at the left and right ends of the connecting block 63. Each clamping jaw 62 is provided with an inclined groove. The horizontal cross-sections of the inclined block 631 and the inclined groove are both T-shaped. When the connecting block 63 moves upward, it can drive the two inclined blocks 631 to move upward, so that the two clamping jaws 62 move toward each other under the cooperation of the inclined block 631 and the inclined groove, thereby realizing the action of clamping or correcting. On the contrary, when the connecting block 63 moves downward, it can drive the two inclined blocks 631 to move downward, so that the two clamping jaws 62 move in the opposite direction under the cooperation of the inclined block 631 and the inclined groove, thereby realizing the action of loosening.

[0036] In some embodiments of the present invention, a first cylinder 64 is further included, and the first cylinder 64 drives the connecting block 63 to move vertically.

[0037] In some embodiments of the present invention, a second cylinder 65 is further included, and the second cylinder 65 drives the negative pressure tube 61 to move vertically.

[0038] Reference Figure 5 In some embodiments of the present invention, the clamping jaws 62 are provided with arc surfaces 624, and the arc surfaces 624 of the two clamping jaws 62 enclose a channel, and the negative pressure tube 61 can pass through the channel. When the negative pressure tube 61 moves down and absorbs the magnetic core 5, the channel can play a role of avoidance.

[0039] Reference Figure 1 In some embodiments of the present invention, the moving mechanism 7 is a manipulator. The manipulator can realize movement in three-dimensional space.

[0040] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Various changes can be made within the knowledge scope of ordinary technicians in the technical field without departing from the purpose of the present invention.
