[0007] The casing module comprises a frame, on which a temporary storage mechanism, a supporting mechanism, a clamping mechanism and an installation mechanism are provided;
[0008] The temporary storage mechanism includes a temporary storage seat, which is fixedly connected to the frame; the temporary storage seat is provided with a temporary storage groove matched with the second pipe, one end of the temporary storage groove is open, and the open end of the temporary storage groove is aligned with the discharge end of the feeding channel;
[0009] The support mechanism comprises a plurality of support columns for supporting the first pipe, and at least two of the support columns are provided with clamping devices matched therewith, and the support columns and the clamping devices are both fixedly connected to the frame;
[0010] The installation mechanism includes a moving platform which is connected to the driving end of a first driving device. Under the driving action of the first driving device, the moving platform slides between a first position and a second position on the frame. An installation seat and a pushing device are provided on the moving platform. An installation groove matching with the second pipe fitting is provided on the installation seat, and both the front and rear ends of the installation groove are open. The supporting mechanism is located on the front side of the installation seat. When the moving platform is at the first position and the second position, the front open end of the installation groove is respectively aligned with the sleeve end of the first pipe fitting. The pushing device is located on the rear side of the installation seat. The pushing device includes a second driving device and a push rod. The driving end of the second driving device is connected to the push rod. Under the driving action of the second driving device, the push rod passes through the rear open end of the installation groove and pushes the second pipe fitting on the installation groove forward, so that the second pipe fitting is sleeved with the first pipe fitting.
[0011] The clamping mechanism is used to clamp and move the second pipe fitting located on the temporary storage groove to the installation groove.
[0012] Further, the clamping mechanism includes a first clamping block, a second clamping block, a third driving device and a fourth driving device. The driving end of the third driving device is connected to the first clamping block and the second clamping block. Under the driving action of the third driving device, the first clamping block and the second clamping block move away from / close to each other. There are several fourth driving devices. Under the driving action of the several fourth driving devices, the third driving device moves between the temporary storage groove and the installation groove. With this setting, first, the third driving device controls the first clamping block and the second clamping block to clamp the second pipe fitting, and then, through the coordinated movement of several fourth driving devices, the second pipe fitting located on the temporary storage groove is transferred to the installation groove. The structure is simple and practical.
[0013] Further, the fourth driving device is fixedly connected to the moving platform through a connecting plate. With this setting, the clamping mechanism is fixed on the moving platform through the connecting plate, without adding additional installation brackets, and at the same time, the integrity of the device can also be improved.
[0014] Further, a protective shell is provided in the moving direction of the fourth driving device, and the protective shell is fixedly connected to the frame. With this setting, considering that the fourth driving device moves together with the moving platform, the protective shell is provided to prevent operators from being injured by the fourth driving device during the movement.
[0015] Further, a V-shaped groove for placing the first pipe fitting is provided on the support column; the pressing device includes a rotary pressing cylinder and a pressing rod. The driving end of the rotary pressing cylinder is connected to the pressing rod, and the pressing end of the pressing rod is aligned with the V-shaped groove. With such a setting, stable support for the first pipe fitting is provided through the V-shaped groove. The rotary pressing cylinder drives the pressing rod to press the first pipe fitting. After pressing, the rotary pressing cylinder drives the pressing rod to rotate to another direction to ensure that the pressing rod does not interfere during the process of taking out the first pipe fitting.
[0016] Further, two anti-separation mechanisms are further provided on the frame, and the two anti-separation mechanisms are respectively aligned with the sides of the sleeve end of the first pipe fitting; the anti-separation mechanism includes a positioning seat, a positioning rod, and a sixth driving device. An L-shaped groove for placing the first pipe fitting is provided on the positioning seat. The positioning rod is connected to the driving end of the sixth driving device, and the non-connected end of the positioning rod is designed with a sharp angle. Under the driving action of the sixth driving device, the sharp angle end of the positioning rod moves closer to / away from the opening side of the L-shaped groove. With such a setting, in order to ensure that the first pipe fitting and the second pipe fitting after sleeving will not separate during transportation and movement, the anti-separation mechanism is provided. After the second pipe fitting and the first pipe fitting are sleeved, the sixth driving device drives the positioning rod to approach the L-shaped groove, and uses its sharp angle end to squeeze the joint of the first pipe fitting and the second pipe fitting to form a concave point, thereby preventing separation during transportation and movement.
[0017] Further, a plurality of jacking mechanisms are further provided on the frame. The jacking mechanism includes a jacking rod and a seventh driving device. The jacking rod is connected to the driving end of the seventh driving device, and the jacking end of the jacking rod faces the first pipe fitting. With such a setting, the jacking mechanism is used to jack up the first pipe fitting after sleeving to separate it from the support column, facilitating the operator to take it away.
[0018] Further, a push pin is provided at one end of the push rod away from the second driving device. The axis lines of the push pin, the second pipe fitting, and the first pipe fitting are on the same straight line. The diameter of the push pin is smaller than the diameter of the second pipe fitting and smaller than the diameter of the first pipe fitting. With such a setting, to achieve the accuracy of sleeving, with the drive of the second driving device, the push pin first passes through the second pipe fitting and inserts into the inner core of the first pipe fitting, and then the push rod pushes the second pipe fitting forward to achieve the centering of the second pipe fitting and the first pipe fitting, so as to achieve the accuracy of sleeving.
[0019] Further, a guide block is provided on one side of the mounting seat away from the second driving device. A guide hole is provided on the guide block, and a taper is provided at the orifice of the guide hole. The guide hole is matched with the mounting groove. With such a setting, the guiding effect of the taper at the orifice of the guide hole is utilized to achieve the centering of the second pipe fitting and the first pipe fitting, so as to achieve the accuracy of sleeving.
[0020] Further, the feeding channel includes a first feeding channel and a second feeding channel. The feeding end of the first feeding channel is connected to the bottom of the tray. The discharging end of the second feeding channel communicates with the temporary storage tank. An attracting channel is provided above the discharging end of the first feeding channel. The gap between the attracting channel and the first feeding channel is equal to the diameter of the second pipe fitting. The discharging end of the attracting channel points to the discharging chute. The discharging chute is inclined and obliquely towards the inside of the feeding tray. With such a setting, in order to prevent the second pipe fittings from stacking and rising along the feeding channel, the feeding channel is divided into a first feeding channel and a second feeding channel. The width of the first feeding channel can only accommodate one second pipe fitting. At the same time, an attracting channel is provided at the connection between the first feeding channel and the second feeding channel, so that the second pipe fitting located above the stacked second pipe fittings falls into the discharging chute along the guiding channel and finally slides obliquely into the feeding tray. Thus, it is ensured that only one second pipe fitting is discharged from the second feeding channel.
[0021] Further, light sensors are provided at the temporary storage tank, the installation groove and the L-shaped groove. The light sensors are used to detect whether there is the first pipe fitting or the second pipe fitting on the temporary storage tank, the installation groove and the L-shaped groove. The light sensors are electrically connected to each driving device. With such a setting, the light sensors are used to detect whether there are actually the first pipe fitting and the second pipe fitting in their positions, so as to enable each driving device to perform subsequent operations.
[0022] Further, contact sensors are provided on both sides of the sliding end of the moving platform. The contact sensors are electrically connected to the first driving device. With such a setting, the contact sensors are used to ensure that the moving platform slides accurately to the designated position.
[0023] Further, the mounting seat is slidably connected to the moving platform. The mounting seat is connected to the driving end of the fifth driving device. Under the driving action of the fifth driving device, the mounting seat moves closer to / away from the support mechanism relative to the support mechanism. With such a setting, by moving the mounting seat closer to the support mechanism, the distance between the second pipe fitting and the first pipe fitting is shortened and then the casing operation is performed to ensure the success rate of the casing.
[0024] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this patent are as follows:
[0025] Through the combined action of the feeding module and the casing module, the automatic casing operation of the first pipe fitting and the second pipe fitting is realized, and the production efficiency is improved. Description of the Drawings

[0068] The working principle of this embodiment:
[0069] Step 1: The operator places a batch of second pipe fittings K2 on the feeding tray A1, and places the first pipe fitting K1 on the V-shaped groove D101 of the support column D1 of the support mechanism and the L-shaped groove G101 of the positioning seat G1. When the light sensor J1 on the L-shaped groove G101 detects the presence of the first pipe fitting K1, the rotating pressing cylinder D201 is started to drive the pressing rod D202 to press and fix the first pipe fitting K1.
[0070] Step 2: The rotating motor A201 is started to drive the bottom plate A2 of the feeding tray A1 to rotate. The second pipe fittings K2 located on the inner bottom plate A2 of the feeding tray A1 are successively moved upward along the spiral feeding channel A4 of the tray body A3 under the rotating drive of the bottom plate A2, and finally move to the temporary storage groove C101 of the temporary storage seat C1 of the temporary storage mechanism.
[0071] Step 3: When the light sensor J1 on the temporary storage groove C101 detects the presence of the second pipe fitting K2, the third driving device F3 controls the first clamping block F1 and the second clamping block F2 to clamp the second pipe fitting K2. Subsequently, under the action of a number of fourth driving devices F4, the third driving device F3 moves from above the temporary storage groove C101 to above the installation groove E201. The third driving device F3 controls the first clamping block F1 and the second clamping block F2 to release the clamping operation on the second pipe fitting K2 again, so that the second pipe fitting K2 falls into the installation groove E201 of the mounting seat E2. At this time, the mobile platform E1 is in the first position.
[0072] Step 4: When the light sensor J1 on the installation groove E201 detects the presence of the second pipe fitting K2, the fifth driving device E4 drives the mounting seat E2 to move closer to the support mechanism to shorten the distance between the second pipe fitting K2 and the first pipe fitting K1.
[0073] Step 5: Start the second driving device E302 to drive the push rod E301 to approach the installation groove E201, and sleeve the second pipe fitting K2 on the first pipe fitting K1 through the push rod E301 to complete the casing operation at one end of the first pipe fitting K1.
[0074] Step 6: Repeat the operation in Step 3.
[0075] Step 7: Start the first driving device E101 to drive the moving platform E1 to move to the second position, align the installation groove E201 with the other end of the first pipe fitting K1, and then repeat Steps 4 - 5. Thus, the casing operations at both ends of the first pipe fitting K1 are completed.
[0076] Step 8: Start the sixth driving device G3 to drive the positioning rod G2 to approach the first pipe fitting K1 located on the L-shaped groove G101, and use its sharp corner end G201 to squeeze the joint of the first pipe fitting K1 and the second pipe fitting K2 to form a concave point.
[0077] Step 9: Rotate the pressing cylinder D201 to drive the pressing rod D202 to release the pressing and fixing of the first pipe fitting K1, and the seventh driving device H2 of the jacking mechanism drives the jacking rod H1 to move upward to jack up the sleeved first pipe fitting K1 away from the support column D1.
[0078] Step 10: The operator takes out the first pipe fitting K1 with the casing completed, puts the first pipe fitting K1 to be cased into the support mechanism, and repeats Steps 2 - 9.
