Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the field of mechanical equipment, in particular to the field of automatic assembly, and specifically to automatic assembly equipment for small motor parts. Background Art
[0002] With the widespread application of industrial automation technology and the increasing requirements of modern production for reducing product assembly costs, improving production efficiency and improving product quality, the demand for automatic assembly machinery is also increasing.
[0003] The existing assembly production of micro motors is generally carried out manually with simple assembly machinery or automatically in a single process. The equipment has a low degree of automation, low production efficiency, high assembly cost, and the product quality is greatly affected by human factors. Summary of the invention
[0004] In the production process of micro motors, the assembly welding of external 104 capacitors and the press-fit assembly of gears have the problems of high manual assembly production cost, low production efficiency and unstable welding quality.
[0005] In order to solve the above problems, the present invention proposes a micro motor external 104 capacitor and gear automatic assembly machine, hereinafter referred to as the automatic assembly machine.
[0006] The automatic assembly machine is a fully automatic assembly equipment, which can realize the assembly and welding of the external 104 capacitor of the micro motor and the press-in assembly of the gear. It includes a frame, a control host, a feeding workbench, a discharging workbench, a feeding device, a capacitor arranging device, a pin correction device, a capacitor assembly device, a capacitor post-assembly shaping device, a capacitor welding device, a gear assembly device and a discharging device.
[0007] The capacitor 104 is referred to as capacitor hereinafter.
[0008] The frame is used to fix and install the remaining components of the automatic assembly machine, and can be a frame structure or a box structure, and can be a single whole or divided into a main frame and an auxiliary frame to facilitate the position adjustment of specific components.
[0009] The control host is used to receive the signal provided by the sensor and control all the execution components through the program. The execution components can be cylinders or pneumatic clamps. Equivalently, they can also be hydraulic cylinders and hydraulic clamps or electric cylinders and electric clamps. The execution components can also be conveyor belts, signal lights, buzzers and other components that require program control. The control host is fixedly installed on the upper part of the automatic assembly machine, suitable for the operator to monitor the operation.
[0010] The feeding workbench is installed on the frame of the feeding end of the automatic assembly machine and is used for placing and arranging the semi-finished micro motors to be fed into the automatic assembly machine.
[0011] The feeding device is connected to the feeding workbench in parallel and installed on the frame. The micro motor semi-finished products arranged in a row on the feeding workbench can be pushed onto the conveyor belt of the feeding device, and the conveyor belt sends the micro motor semi-finished products to the next process.
[0012] The discharging device and the feeding device are arranged horizontally and side by side, and there is an overlapped area in the middle of the two. Both of them have conveyor belts adapted to the size of the motor, and the head and tail of the micro motor can be limited in the width direction so that the micro motors are neatly arranged on the conveyor belt. A micro motor pushing device is arranged on the side of the end of the conveyor belt of the feeding device, which can push the micro motors neatly and closely arranged on the conveyor belt of the feeding device into the conveyor belt of the discharging device according to the instructions of the control host, and then enter the subsequent working positions in turn to assemble the capacitor and the gear, and finally transport the assembled micro motors to the discharging workbench position, and the discharging is packaged into boxes.
[0013] The capacitor arranging device includes a vibration plate and an arranging guide rail. The vibration plate is used to store the capacitors to be assembled and send the capacitors out of the vibration plate along an internal spiral ascending track through vibration. Although the vibration plate can arrange the capacitors into a continuous row and send them out of the vibration plate continuously or intermittently, since the capacitor has two pins, the vibration plate cannot make the capacitor pins face the same direction.
[0014] The entire row of guide rails is installed on the upper edge of the vibration plate, and has an open annular V-shaped groove structure. The bottom of the groove is lower than the inner and outer edges. According to different functions, it is divided into a connecting section, an inner drop screening section, an outer drop screening section and a narrow rail screening section.
[0015] The connecting section is used to receive the capacitors sent by the vibration plate, and the edges on both sides of its V-shaped groove are wide; the inner falling screening section is connected to the aforementioned connecting section, and the width of the inner edge of its V-shaped groove gradually narrows, so that the capacitors that cannot be arranged in a row at the bottom of the V-shaped groove and are accumulated on the inner edge of the entire row of guide rails fall from the inside to the receiving plate;
[0016] The outer screening section is connected to the inner screening section, and the outer edge of its V-groove suddenly narrows, so that the capacitors that cannot be arranged in a row at the bottom of the V-groove of the entire row of guide rails and are accumulated on the outer edge of the entire row of guide rails fall from the outside to the receiving tray; through the joint action of the inner screening section and the outer screening section, the capacitors form a single queue arrangement on the entire row of guide rails.
[0017] The narrow-track screening section is connected to the aforementioned outer-falling screening section, and its V-shaped groove is deformed into an inner edge vertically set, and the outer edge becomes a horizontal or nearly horizontal arc-shaped guide rail. The width of the outer side of the guide rail or the bottom edge is 1.5-2 times the width of the capacitor head, so that the capacitor with the head facing outward can fall into the receiving tray. The inner edge of the guide rail contains a strip permanent magnet, which has an attraction effect on the capacitor head, so that the capacitor head can face the inside of the vibration disk. There is a limit bar above the middle of the narrow-track screening section, which can make the capacitor standing up move along the guide rail and hit the limit bar and fall horizontally on the bottom edge of the guide rail or fall from the outside into the receiving tray. The function of the narrow-track screening section is to further screen and arrange the capacitors that have formed a single queue into a sequence of heads facing inward and pins facing outward in the same direction. A light sensor is provided at the end of the narrow-track screening section. When a capacitor is arranged at the end of the entire guide rail, the vibration disk stops working to prevent the capacitor from being piled up and falling before being taken away by the next process.
[0018] The pin correction device includes a material picker, a pin fixing clamp and a pin correction clamp, and its function is to transfer the capacitors arranged at the end of the guide rail of the capacitor arranging device and correct the two pins of the capacitor so that the distance between the two pins of the capacitor is consistent and suitable for the use requirements of the next process.
[0019] The material picker includes a rotary actuator and a cantilever suction head fixed on the rotary actuator. The rotary actuator can be any power component that can perform a rotary action, such as a rotary cylinder, a stepper motor, a hydraulic angle cylinder, etc. According to the use conditions of the present invention, a rotary cylinder is preferably used. The cantilever suction head is used to absorb the position of the capacitor head to transfer the capacitor. Vacuum adsorption and electromagnetic adsorption can be selected according to the material properties of the transferred capacitor. Vacuum adsorption has high reliability and has no special requirements for capacitor materials, so the present invention prefers vacuum adsorption. The front end of the cantilever suction head has a U-shaped structure with a back bend so that the suction port faces downward, which is convenient for sucking the capacitor placed horizontally at the end of the guide rail of the entire array device.
[0020] Preferably, the edge of the suction port of the cantilever suction head can be equipped with a soft material sheath or coated with a soft material to reduce surface wear on the capacitor and increase the stability of adsorption. The soft material can be rubber, TPE, polyurethane or silicone material.
[0021] The picker has two working positions: horizontal and vertical. First, the picker is rotated to a vertical position slightly inclined towards the capacitor aligning device, so that the head suction port of the cantilever suction head contacts and adsorbs the upper surface of the head of the capacitor placed at the end of the guide rail of the aligning device; then it is rotated upward to a horizontal position away from the capacitor aligning device. At this time, the pins of the capacitor adsorbed on the cantilever suction head of the picker are just vertically downward, so as to facilitate the fixing of the pin fixing clamp and the correction operation of the pin correction clamp.
[0022] The pin fixing clamp is used to fix and clamp the capacitor pins near the capacitor head, and can be a pneumatic, hydraulic or electrically driven clamp mechanism. The present invention preferably uses pneumatic clamps, and further uses pneumatic parallel clamps. Specially designed pin clamping pieces are fixed to the front ends of the clamps on both sides of the pneumatic parallel clamps, and the inner side of one side of the pin clamping piece has a protruding double V-shaped fixing notch, or it can be called a W-shaped fixing notch, and the pin clamping piece on the opposite side has a relative avoidance groove. The double V-notch is used to fix the two pins of the capacitor, and the center spacing of the two V-shaped notches is the same as the spacing of the capacitor pins to be clamped, or is slightly wider than the spacing of the capacitor pins so that the capacitor pins form an outward-inclined figure eight shape.
[0023] The pin correction clamp is used to correct the spacing of the ends of the capacitor pins to facilitate assembly in the next process. The pin correction clamp can be a pneumatic, hydraulic or electrically driven clamp mechanism. The present invention preferably uses pneumatic jaws, and further uses pneumatic finger-type clamps. The front jaw portion of the pin correction clamp is located below the jaws of the pin fixing clamp, and the pin correction clamp and the pin fixing clamp are cross-distributed at 90 degrees. A clamping jaw piece is fixed at the front end of the clamping jaw of the pin correction clamp, and the front end distance of the clamping jaw pieces on both sides is adapted to the spacing between the lower ends of the capacitor pins. Considering the rebound of the pins, the front end distance of the clamping jaw pieces should be slightly smaller than the expected spacing between the capacitor pins.

There is a guide slot hole with a guide opening forward at the end position of the lower end of each side of the guide groove, and the guide slot is used to guide the two pins of the capacitor to separate to both sides and pass through the guide piece downward from the open guide slot hole at the end point of the guide slot, and the opening of the guide slot hole is used for the exit action of the guide piece.
[0037] The electrode support sheet is located below the guide sheet and is in the shape of a rectangular flat sheet with sharp corners extending forward and bending downward on both sides of the front end. It is used to insert under the two electrode sheets of the motor to support them. The outer edge of the sharp corner is an extension of the side edge line of the rectangular body. The inner spacing between the two sharp corners gradually increases from the inside to the outside to facilitate guidance during insertion.
[0038] The motor positioning sheet is located below the electrode supporting sheet and is fixed on a fixing bracket, and has a fork-shaped positioning structure at the front end for positioning the horizontal position of the micro motor.
[0039] The mounting bracket has a mounting hole at one end for mounting the guide plate, the electrode support plate and the motor positioning plate, and a mounting hole at the other end for connecting and fixing with the moving slider, so that the reciprocating motion component, specifically the cylinder, can be driven to extend and position the micro motor, and the guide slot on the guide plate is aligned with the welding holes on the electrode plates on both sides of the tail of the micro motor to facilitate the insertion of the two pins of the capacitor; and after the capacitor pins are inserted, they are driven by the cylinder to withdraw backward to the initial position and disengage from the micro motor, and then the micro motor is driven by the conveyor belt of the discharge device to move the width of the micro motor to assemble the next micro motor.
[0040] The capacitor post-assembly shaping device comprises a mounting bracket, a cylinder for realizing reciprocating motion, a linear guide pair, a moving slide block and a pneumatic clamping claw.
[0041] Furthermore, the mounting bracket is used to connect and fix the capacitor post-assembly shaping device and the frame, and can be a single integral structure; or it can be a split structure, in which several brackets are combined to achieve the installation and fixation of the capacitor post-assembly shaping device and the frame, and the connection between the brackets and the frame can be fixed using bolts.
[0042] Furthermore, the guide rail can be a single square linear guide pair, two square linear guide pairs and two circular shaft guide pairs.

[0088] The feeding device 5 is arranged in parallel with the feeding workbench 3 and installed on the frame 2. The micro motor semi-finished products arranged in rows on the feeding workbench 3 are pushed onto the conveyor belt of the feeding device 5, and finally the micro motor semi-finished products are sent to the discharging device 12.
[0089] The discharging device 12 and the feeding device 5 are arranged horizontally and side by side, and there is an overlapped area in the middle of the two. Both of them have conveyor belts adapted to the size of the motor, and the head and tail of the micro motor can be limited in the width direction so that the micro motors are neatly arranged on the conveyor belt. A micro motor pushing device is arranged on the side of the end of the conveyor belt of the feeding device, which can push the micro motors neatly and closely arranged on the conveyor belt of the feeding device into the conveyor belt of the discharging device 12 according to the instructions of the control host, and then enter the subsequent working positions in turn to assemble the capacitor and the gear, and finally transport the assembled micro motors to the discharging workbench 4 position for sorting and packaging into boxes.
[0090] like Figure 3 As shown, the capacitor aligning device 6 is located on one side of the discharging device 12 and is fixed to the frame 2 , and includes a vibration plate 61 , an aligning guide rail 62 and a receiving plate 63 .
[0091] Furthermore, the vibration plate 61 is used to store the capacitors to be assembled and to send the capacitors out of the vibration plate 61 along the internal spiral ascending track through vibration. The vibration plate 61 can arrange the capacitors into a continuous row and send them out of the vibration plate continuously or intermittently, but because the capacitor has two pins, the vibration plate 61 cannot make the orientation of the capacitor pins consistent.
[0092] Furthermore, the entire guide rail 62 is used to filter the capacitor sequence sent out by the vibration disk into a sequence with consistent head and tail directions. It is installed on the upper edge of the vibration disk 61, and its appearance is an open annular V-shaped groove structure. The bottom of the groove in the starting area and the middle area of the entire guide rail 62 is lower than the inner and outer side edges, and the bottom of the groove in the end area is flush with one side edge. According to different functions, it is divided into four areas: a connecting section 621, an inner falling screening section 622, an outer falling screening section 623 and a narrow track screening section 624, and also includes a limit strip 625, a light sensor 626 and a directional magnetic strip 627.
[0093] Furthermore, the connecting section 621 is used to receive the capacitors sent out by the vibration plate 61, and the edges on both sides of the V-shaped groove are complete and smoothly transitioned to the discharge port of the vibration plate; the inner falling screening section 622 is connected to the aforementioned connecting section 621, and the width of the inner edge of the V-shaped groove is gradually narrowed, so that the capacitors that cannot be arranged in a row at the bottom of the V-shaped groove and are accumulated on the inner edge of the entire row of guide rails 62 fall from the inside to the receiving plate 63;
[0094] Furthermore, the outer screening section 623 is connected to the aforementioned inner screening section 622, and the outer edge of its V-groove suddenly narrows, so that the capacitors that cannot be arranged in a row at the bottom of the V-groove of the entire guide rail 62 and are accumulated on the outer edge of the entire guide rail 62 fall from the outside to the receiving tray 63; through the joint action of the inner screening section 622 and the outer screening section 623, the capacitors form a single queue arrangement on the entire guide rail 62.
[0095] Furthermore, the narrow-track screening section 624 is connected to the aforementioned outer-falling screening section 623, and its V-shaped groove gradually deforms into an inner edge with a vertical arrangement, and the outer edge gradually becomes a horizontally arranged arc-shaped guide rail. The width of the outer side of the guide rail or the guide rail bottom edge 6241 is 1.5-2 times the width of the capacitor head, so that the capacitor with its head facing outward can fall into the receiving tray 63. The inner side of the guide rail of the narrow-track screening section 624 has a directional magnetic strip 627, which has an attraction effect on the capacitor head, so that the capacitor head can be directed toward the inner side of the vibration disk 61. There is a limit strip 625 above the middle of the narrow-track screening section 624, so that the capacitor standing upright can move along the guide rail and hit the limit strip 625 and fall horizontally on the guide rail bottom edge 6241 or fall from the outside into the receiving tray 63. The function of the narrow track screening section 624 is to further screen and arrange the capacitors that have formed a single queue into a sequence arranged in the same direction with the heads facing inward and the pins facing outward. A light sensor 626 is provided at the end position of the narrow track screening section 624. When the capacitors are arranged at the end of the entire guide rail 62, the vibration disk 61 stops working to prevent the capacitors from piling up and falling before being removed by the next process.
[0096] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the pin correction device 7 includes a material picker 71, a pin fixing clamp 72 and a pin correction clamp 73, and its function is to transfer the capacitors arranged at the end of the guide rail of the capacitor arranging device 6 and correct the two pins of the capacitors so that the distance between the two pins of the capacitors is consistent and suitable for the use requirements of the next process.
[0097] Furthermore, the material picker 71 includes a rotary actuator 711 and a cantilever suction head 712 fixed on the rotary actuator 711. The rotary actuator 711 preferably uses a rotary cylinder for the use conditions of the present invention. The cantilever suction head 712 is used to suck the capacitor head position to transfer the capacitor. The present invention preferably uses negative pressure air adsorption, and the air pipe connected to the negative pressure generating device is omitted in the figure. The front end of the cantilever suction head has a U-shaped structure with a reverse bend so that the suction port faces downward, which is convenient for sucking the capacitor placed horizontally at the end of the guide rail of the entire array device.
[0098] Furthermore, the edge of the suction port of the cantilever suction head can be equipped with a soft material sheath or coated with a soft material to reduce surface wear on the capacitor and increase the stability of adsorption. The soft material can be rubber, TPE, polyurethane or silicone material.
[0099] like Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the picker 71 has two working positions, horizontal and vertical. First, the picker 71 is rotated to a vertical position slightly inclined to the capacitor aligning device 6, so that the head suction port of the cantilever suction head 712 contacts the upper surface of the head of the capacitor placed at the end of the guide rail of the aligning device 6 and is adsorbed; then it is rotated away from the capacitor aligning device 6 and upward to a horizontal position. At this time, the pins of the capacitor adsorbed on the cantilever suction head 712 of the picker 71 are just vertically downward, so as to facilitate the fixing of the pin fixing clamp 72 and the correction operation of the pin correction clamp 73.
[0100] like Figure 4 As shown, the pin fixing clamp 72 is used to fix and clamp the capacitor pins near the capacitor head. In this embodiment, pneumatic clamps are preferred, and pneumatic parallel clamps 721 are further selected. A pair of specially designed pin clamping claws 722 are fixed at the front ends of the clamps on both sides of the pneumatic parallel clamps 721, wherein the inner side of one clamping claw has a protruding double V-shaped fixing notch 7221, and the fixing notch 7221 can also be called W-shaped, and the opposite clamping claw has a relative avoidance groove 7222. The double V-shaped fixing notch 7221 is used to fix the two pins of the capacitor, and the center spacing of the two V-shaped notches is the same as the spacing of the capacitor pins to be clamped, or slightly wider than the spacing of the capacitor pins so that the capacitor pins form an outward-inclined figure eight shape.
[0101] like Figure 4 or Figure 5 As shown, the pin correction clamp 73 is used to correct the spacing of the ends of the capacitor pins to facilitate assembly in the next process. The pin correction clamp 73 can be a pneumatic, hydraulic or electrically driven clamp mechanism. The present invention preferably uses pneumatic jaws, and further uses pneumatic finger-type clamps 731. The front jaw portion of the pin correction clamp 73 is located below the jaws of the pin fixing clamp, and the pin correction clamp and the pin fixing clamp are cross-distributed at 90 degrees. A pair of correction jaw pieces 732 are fixed to the front end of the jaws of the pneumatic finger-type clamp 731. The front end distance of the jaw pieces on both sides is adapted to the spacing of the lower ends of the capacitor pins. Considering the rebound of the pins, the front end distance of the jaw pieces should be slightly smaller than the expected spacing of the capacitor pins.
[0102] like Figure 6 As shown, the capacitor assembly device 8 is used to grasp and accurately insert the capacitor pins into the welding holes of the two electrode sheets at the rear end of the micro motor, and includes a grasping device 81 and a pin guiding device 82.
[0103] Furthermore, the grasping device 81 includes a horizontal motion component 811, a vertical motion component 812 and a clamping mechanism 813. The horizontal motion component 811 and the vertical motion component 812 are responsible for realizing the up and down lifting and horizontal movement of the clamping mechanism 813, and the clamping mechanism 813 is responsible for grasping and releasing the capacitor.
[0104] Furthermore, the vertical motion assembly 812 is mounted on the sliding bearing of the horizontal motion assembly 811, thereby realizing the composite motion in the vertical and horizontal directions. The vertical motion assembly 812 includes a vertical mounting bracket 8121, a clamping jaw mounting slide block 8122 for mounting the clamping jaw mechanism 813, a linear guide rail pair 8123 for guiding, and a fourth cylinder 8124 for realizing reciprocating motion. The horizontal motion assembly 811 includes a horizontal mounting bracket 8111, a first linear guide rail pair 8112 for guiding, and a first cylinder 8113 for realizing reciprocating motion.
[0105] like Figure 7 As shown, the clamping mechanism 813 is used to accurately clamp the capacitor head position to transfer the capacitor, and includes a power clamp 8131 and a capacitor head clamping piece 8132. Preferably, the power clamp 8131 is a pneumatic parallel clamp.
[0106] Furthermore, the capacitor head clamping claw piece 8132 is divided into two structures that cooperate with each other, and are respectively connected and fixed to the two sides of the power clamp 8131. The end of the capacitor head clamping claw piece 8132 has a capacitor head upper end limiting structure 81321 and a capacitor pin positioning structure 81322. The capacitor head upper end limiting structure 81321 is specifically in the form of a horizontal cantilever protrusion with a flat rectangular cross-section on the inner side of the capacitor head clamping claw piece, which is used to limit the vertical position of the capacitor head during clamping, and the inner side of the opposite side clamping claw piece has a corresponding shape of avoidance hole. The capacitor pin positioning structure 81322 is specifically in the form of a horizontal cantilever protrusion with a vertical projection shape of an isosceles triangle on the inner side of the capacitor head clamping claw piece, and the inner side of the opposite side clamping claw piece has a corresponding shape of avoidance hole. When clamping the capacitor, the triangular protrusion is inserted between the two pins to limit the horizontal position of the capacitor pin.
[0107] like Figure 7 As shown, the pin guide device 82 is used to guide the two pins of the capacitor to be correctly inserted into the electrode welding holes of the micro motor, and includes a second mounting bracket 823, a second cylinder 825, a second linear guide pair 824, a mounting slider 822 and a pin guide assembly 821.
[0108] like Figure 8 As shown, the pin guide assembly 821 includes a guide plate 8211, an electrode support plate 8212, a motor positioning plate 8213, a fixing bracket 8214, a pad 8215 and a fastening screw 8216.
[0109] Furthermore, the guide piece 8211 has an inverted V-shaped upper surface like a ridge and a flat bottom, with protruding square edges on both sides of the upper surface, and a guide groove 82111 extending from the top edge line to the square edges on both sides at the front end, and the guide groove ends at the protruding square edges on both sides. There is a guide slot hole 82112 with a guide opening forward at the end position of the lower end of each side of the guide groove. The guide groove 82111 is used to guide the two pins of the capacitor to separate to both sides and pass downward through the guide piece from the guide slot hole 82112 opened at the end point of the guide groove, and the opening of the guide slot hole 82112 is used for the exit action of the guide piece.
[0110] Furthermore, the electrode support sheet 8212 is located below the guide sheet 8211 and is shaped like a rectangular flat sheet with sharp corners extending forward and bending downward on both sides of the front end, which is used to insert under the two electrode sheets of the motor to support them. The outer edge of the sharp corner is an extension of the side edge line of the rectangular body, and the inner spacing between the two sharp corners gradually increases from the inside to the outside to facilitate guidance during insertion.
[0111] Furthermore, the motor positioning piece 8213 is located below the electrode supporting piece 8212 and is fixed on the fixing bracket 8214 with a pad 8215 therebetween. The front end of the motor positioning piece 8213 has a fork-shaped positioning structure for locating the horizontal position of the micro motor.
[0112] Furthermore, the fixed bracket 8214 has a mounting hole at one end for mounting the guide plate 8211, the electrode support plate 8212, the pad 8215 and the motor positioning plate 8213, and a mounting hole at the other end for connecting and fixing with the mounting slider 822, so that the micro motor can be extended and positioned forward by the second cylinder 825, and at the same time, the guide slot 82112 on the guide plate 8211 is aligned with the welding holes on the electrode plates on both sides of the tail of the micro motor to facilitate the insertion of the two pins of the capacitor; and after the capacitor pins are inserted, they are driven by the second cylinder 825 to withdraw backward to the initial position and disengage from the micro motor, and then the micro motor moves by the width of the micro motor under the drive of the conveyor belt of the discharge device 12 to assemble the next micro motor.
[0113] like Fig. 9 As shown, the capacitor post-assembly shaping device 9 includes a third mounting bracket 91, a third cylinder 92 for realizing reciprocating motion, a third linear guide pair 93, a third mounting slide block 94 and a pneumatic clamp 95.
[0114] Furthermore, the third mounting bracket 91 is used to connect and fix the capacitor post-assembly shaping device 9 .
[0115] Furthermore, the third linear guide pair 93 includes two sets of square linear guide pairs, the sliding bearings in the guide pairs are fixed to the lower surface of the third mounting slide block 94 by screws, and the guide rails in the third linear guide pair 93 are fixedly connected to the third mounting bracket 91.
[0116] Furthermore, the third mounting slide block 94 is used to connect the sliding bearing in the third linear guide pair 93 and the pneumatic clamp 95 .
[0117] Furthermore, the pneumatic clamp 95 is used to press down and clamp the two electrode sheets of the micro motor that have been inserted into the capacitor pins. In this embodiment, pneumatic parallel clamps are preferred.
[0118] Furthermore, the electrode shaping sheet 951 is installed on the two clamps of the pneumatic clamp 95 by screws. The electrode shaping sheet 951 is a two-piece symmetrical structure. The end of each electrode shaping sheet has a motor positioning fork 9511 for positioning the horizontal position of the motor and an electrode shaping fork 9512 for pressing down and clamping the micro motor electrode sheet.
[0119] Furthermore, a capacitor prostrate pressing piece 952 is fixed on the side of the pneumatic clamp 95 body, which is used to press down the capacitor that has been shaped and fixed by the pneumatic clamp, so that the two pins of the capacitor are deformed and fall toward the micro motor body, and the capacitor is in a close and prostrate state.
[0120] like Figure 1 As shown, the capacitor welding device 10 includes a welding wire feeding device 102 for feeding the welding wire and accurately aligning the welding wire at the front end of the welding wire gun with the welding position of the micro motor electrode, and a welding gun control device 101 for controlling the welding gun welding head to accurately align the welding position of the micro motor electrode sheet, and the two cooperate with each other to realize spot tin welding of the two electrode sheets of the micro motor that has been assembled with the capacitor.
[0121] Since the capacitor welding device 10 has been described in detail above and all components are purchased, it will not be described in detail again.
[0122] like Figure 2 and Fig.10 As shown, the gear assembly device 11 includes a vibration plate 114, a feeding guide rail 113, a motor clamping and fixing assembly 111 and a gear press assembly 112. The gear press assembly 112 includes a press positioning block 1121, a gear press cylinder 1123 and a gear positioning cylinder 1122.
[0123] Since the gear assembly device 11 has been described in detail above and its structure is not very innovative, it will not be described in detail again.
[0124] The structure of this embodiment has been described so far. The working process of the micro motor external 104 capacitor and the gear automatic assembly machine provided by the embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail as follows.
[0125] The automatic assembly machine is started, and the micromotors arranged on the feeding workbench 3 are placed on the conveyor belt of the feeding device 5 in sequence. When the closely arranged micromotors move to the end of the conveyor belt of the feeding device 5, a micromotor pushing device is provided on the side of the end of the conveyor belt of the feeding device 5. The micromotors that have been neatly and closely arranged on the conveyor belt of the feeding device can be pushed into the conveyor belt of the discharging device 12 according to the instructions of the control host, and then enter the subsequent working positions in sequence to assemble, shape, weld and assemble the gears of the capacitors, and finally convey the assembled micromotors to the discharging workbench position.
[0126] At the same time, the capacitors placed in the vibration plate 61 of the capacitor aligning device 6 are sent out of the vibration plate 61 along the spiral upward track inside the vibration plate 61 under the action of vibration, enter the connecting section 621 of the aligning guide rail 62, and then enter the inner screening section 622, so that the capacitors that cannot be arranged in a row at the bottom of the V-shaped groove of the aligning guide rail 62 and are accumulated on the inner edge of the aligning guide rail fall from the inside into the receiving tray 63.
[0127] The capacitors continue to enter the outer screening section 623 of the entire row of guide rails 62 under the action of vibration, and the outer edge of the V-groove suddenly narrows, causing the capacitors that cannot be arranged in a row at the bottom of the V-groove of the entire row of guide rails 62 and are accumulated on the outer edge of the entire row of guide rails 62 to fall from the outside into the receiving tray 63.
[0128] The capacitor continues to enter the narrow-track screening section 624 of the entire guide rail 62 under the action of vibration, so that the capacitor with its head facing outward can fall into the receiving tray. The inner edge of the guide rail contains a strip-shaped directional magnetic strip 627, which has an attraction effect on the capacitor head, so that the capacitor head can face the inner side of the vibration disk 61. There is a limit strip 625 above the middle of the narrow-track screening section 624, which can make the capacitor standing up move along the guide rail and hit the limit strip and fall horizontally on the bottom edge of the guide rail or fall from the outside into the receiving tray 63. The function of the narrow-track screening section 624 is to further screen and arrange the capacitors that have formed a single queue into a sequence with the head facing inward and the pins facing outward in the same direction. A light sensor 626 is provided at the end of the narrow-track screening section. When a capacitor is arranged at the end of the entire guide rail 62, the vibration disk 61 stops working to prevent the capacitor from being piled up and falling before being taken away by the next process.
[0129] The cantilever suction head 712 of the material picker 71 of the pin correction device 7 is driven by the rotary cylinder 711 to rotate to the position as shown in FIG. Figure 5 The capacitor at the end of the entire guide rail is adsorbed, and then the rotary cylinder 711 is rotated to the position shown in FIG. Figure 4The capacitor is placed in the position shown in FIG. 1 and placed in the pin clamping claw piece 722 of the pin fixing clamp 72. The pin clamping claw piece 722 is closed, and the two pins of the capacitor are fixed by the fixing notches 7221 respectively. The cantilever suction head 712 returns to the position shown in FIG. Figure 5 At the same time, the front end correction jaw piece 732 of the correction clamp 73 is pressed against the capacitor pin to complete the distance correction of the two pins of the capacitor.
[0130] Then, the clamping mechanism 813 of the grasping device 81 of the capacitor assembly device 8, under the coordinated movement of the horizontal motion component 811 and the vertical motion component 812, clamps the capacitor with the pin correction completed in the pin clamping piece 722 of the pin fixing clamp 72 and transfers it to above a micro motor on the conveyor belt of the discharge device 12. At the same time, the pin guide component 821 at the front end of the pin guide device 82 moves to the top of the micro motor under the push of the second cylinder 825, the front end positioning fork of the motor positioning piece 8213 limits the horizontal position of the micro motor to the left and right, the electrode support piece 8212 is inserted under the two electrode pieces of the micro motor to support it, the guide slot 82112 of the guide piece 8211 is aligned with the welding holes on the two electrode pieces of the micro motor, and then the clamping mechanism 813 inserts the capacitor downward, and when the two pins of the capacitor contact the guide piece 8211, the capacitor pins are separated to both sides under the guiding action of the guide groove 82111, and slide downward along the groove 82111 into the guide slots 82112 on both sides, continue to pass downward through the guide piece into the welding holes of the electrode piece of the micro motor, and then the pin guide component 821 at the front end of the pin guide device 82 moves to the initial position under the pull of the second cylinder 825, the capacitor pins withdraw from the opening in front of the guide slot 82112, and break contact with the micro motor, and the insertion and assembly of the capacitor on the micro motor is accurately completed.
[0131] The micro motor with the capacitor inserted is moved to the next process position under the drive of the conveyor belt of the discharge device 12.
[0132] Driven by the third cylinder 92 of the capacitor post-assembly shaping device 9, the pneumatic clamp 95 moves downward, and the electrode shaping sheets 951 installed on the two clamps of the pneumatic clamp 95 contact the micro motor below. While the motor positioning fork 9511 fixes the horizontal position of the micro motor, the electrode shaping fork 9512 presses down and clamps the electrode sheet of the micro motor, so that the two capacitor pins that have been inserted into the two electrode welding holes of the micro motor are deformed inward. The purpose is to make the position of the capacitor more stable before the welding process and the capacitor pins are retracted inward after welding, so as to avoid the change of the capacitor position during welding affecting the welding quality.
[0133] While the pneumatic clamp 95 moves downward to shape the capacitor pins, the capacitor inversion pressing piece 952 installed on the side of the pneumatic clamp 95 body presses down the capacitor that has been shaped and fixed by the pneumatic clamp, so that the two pins of the capacitor are deformed and inverted toward the micro motor body. The capacitor is in a tightly inverted state, which facilitates the welding operation of the welding gun and welding wire during welding.
[0134] After the capacitor is assembled and shaped, the micro motor continues to move to the welding process position under the drive of the conveyor belt of the discharge device 12.
[0135] The welding wire feeding device 102 of the capacitor welding device 10 feeds the welding wire and accurately aligns the welding wire at the front end of the welding wire gun with the welding position of the micromotor electrode. The welding gun control device 101 controls the welding head of the welding gun to accurately align with the welding position of the micromotor electrode sheet to melt the welding wire. The melted welding wire material is adsorbed on the electrode sheet and the capacitor pin at the welding holes of the two electrode sheets of the micromotor to form welding points. The welding gun and the welding wire retreat to the initial position and break contact with the micromotor. The welding point cools and solidifies, completing the welding of the two electrode sheets of the micromotor that has been assembled with the capacitor.
[0136] The micro motor that has completed capacitor welding continues to move to the position of the gear assembly process under the drive of the conveyor belt of the discharge device 12.
[0137] The motor clamping and fixing assembly 111 clamps the micro motor sent out from the end of the conveyor belt of the discharging device and synchronously moves horizontally to the working position of the gear pressing assembly 113, so that the motor shaft of the micro motor is aligned with the gear axis in the gear pressing assembly.
[0138] The vibration plate 114 in the gear assembly device 11 vibrates the gears stored inside to arrange them into rows and send them to the feeding guide 113. Under the action of vibration, the gears connected head to tail enter the press-fitting positioning block 1121 of the gear press-fitting assembly 112. The gear positioning cylinder 1122 pushes the gear on the end of the feeding guide 113 into the positioning groove inside the press-fitting positioning block 1121 (not shown in the figure), and then the gear press-fitting cylinder 1123 extends into the cylinder rod inside the press-fitting positioning block 1121 to press the gear toward the micro-motor shaft. When the pressing action of the gear press-fitting cylinder 1123 is completed, the gear press-fitting assembly work is completed.
[0139] The micro motors after the gear assembly are pushed horizontally by the motor clamping and fixing assembly 111, and the micro motors are closely connected and pushed to the unloading workbench 4 in sequence. The micro motors are loaded into trays and boxes on the unloading workbench.
[0140] The above content is a further detailed description of the present invention in combination with a specific preferred embodiment. It cannot be determined that the specific embodiments of the present invention are limited to this. For ordinary technicians in the technical field to which the present invention belongs, several simple deductions or substitutions can be made without departing from the concept of the present invention, which should be regarded as belonging to the present invention and the scope of patent protection determined by the submitted claims.
