Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of automatic connector production equipment, and in particular to an automatic terminal iron shell plug-in machine. Background Art

[0002] Terminals and iron shells are important components of connectors. Terminals and iron shells are generally assembled using automatic assembly equipment to improve production efficiency and reduce labor costs. Existing automatic assembly equipment includes two types. The first type is a vibration disk feeding type. When providing terminals and iron shells, the shapes of the terminals and iron shells have been processed by the previous position. This type of automatic assembly equipment only needs to assemble the terminals and iron shells. The other type is a reel feeding type. This type directly hangs the terminal material strip and the iron shell material strip on the reel of the automatic assembly equipment. When the automatic assembly equipment assembles the terminal material strip and the iron shell material strip, the base strip needs to be cut off. Since the latter type of automatic assembly equipment is more convenient in feeding, it only needs to hang the terminal material strip and the iron shell material strip on the reel, and there is no need to set up a vibration disk separately. Therefore, the latter type of automatic assembly equipment is more suitable for assembling terminals and iron shells. However, in the existing automatic assembly equipment, the terminals and iron shells are assembled after cutting the base strip. The entire assembly production process is slow and the assembly effect is not good. Summary of the invention

[0058] The terminal strip is composed of a long strip of terminal base strip, a plurality of terminals connected to the terminal base strip, and a material bridge connected between two adjacent terminals.

The terminal feeding mechanism 2 is used to provide a terminal strip; the first cutting mechanism 3 is located downstream of the terminal feeding mechanism 2 and is used to cut off the material bridge of the terminal strip; the carrying mechanism 4 is located downstream of the first cutting mechanism 3 and is used to carry the cut The terminal strip after the material removal bridge; the iron shell discharge mechanism 5 is located on one side of the carrying mechanism 4, and is used to provide the iron shell strip; the second cutting mechanism 6 is located downstream of the iron shell discharge mechanism 5, and is used to cut off the iron shell strip; the third cutting mechanism 7 is located downstream of the second cutting mechanism 6, and is used to cut off the iron shell base strip; the transfer and fastening mechanism 8 is located on one side of the third cutting mechanism 7, and is used to transfer the iron shell on the third cutting mechanism 7, and fasten the iron shell to the terminal strip on the carrying mechanism 4; the fourth cutting mechanism 9 is located downstream of the carrying mechanism 4, and is used to cut and separate the terminal fastened with the iron shell from the terminal base strip.

[0060] When the terminal material strip provided by the terminal feeding mechanism 2 passes through the first cutting mechanism 3, the first cutting mechanism 3 cuts off the material bridge between two adjacent terminals, and the terminal connected to the terminal base strip moves to the carrying mechanism 4 following the terminal base strip; when the iron shell material strip provided by the iron shell feeding mechanism 5 passes through the second cutting mechanism 6, the second cutting mechanism 6 cuts off the iron shell base strip to obtain a product consisting of a single iron shell and a sheet-like iron shell base strip, and the iron shell of the product is connected to the sheet-like iron shell base strip. When the product moves to the third cutting mechanism 7, the third cutting mechanism 7 cuts off the sheet-like iron shell base strip to obtain an independent iron shell, and the transfer and fastening mechanism 8 transfers the independent iron shell and fastens the iron shell to the terminal on the carrying mechanism 4. Since the terminal is connected to the entire terminal base strip, the fastening stability can be ensured to avoid deviation or jumping when the iron shell is fastened to the terminal. The terminal fastened with the iron shell follows the terminal base strip to move to the bottom of the fourth cutting mechanism 9, and the fourth cutting mechanism 9 cuts and separates the terminal from the terminal base strip to obtain a terminal fastened with the iron shell.

[0061] like Figure 3 As shown, optionally, the first cutting mechanism 3 includes a first rail assembly 31, a first pushing assembly 32 and a first cutting die assembly 33, the head end of the first rail assembly 31 is connected to the discharge end of the terminal discharge mechanism 2, the first pushing assembly 32 is located on one side of the first rail assembly 31, the first pushing assembly 32 is used to push the terminal material strip forward on the first rail assembly 31, the first cutting die assembly 33 is located above the first rail assembly 31, and the first cutting die assembly 33 is used to cut off the material bridge on the terminal material strip.

When the terminal strip moves on the first track assembly 31, the terminal base strip passes through the gap between the cover plate 312 and the first track 311, and the terminal and the material bridge move from the uncovered surface of the first track 311. The cover plate 312 and the first track 311 limit the terminal strip to move only along the length direction of the first track 311, so as to avoid the terminal strip from being offset during the cutting process, resulting in the scrapping of the terminal strip.

[0063] Optionally, the first driving assembly 32 includes a first power member 321 and a second power member 322. The output end of the first power member 321 is provided with a first positioning column. The first power member 321 is used to drive the first positioning column to insert into the positioning hole of the terminal base strip. The first power member 321 is installed at the output end of the second power member 322. The second power member 322 is used to drive the first power member 321 to drive the terminal strip to move downstream.

A first boss 3321 is arranged on the side of the first stripper plate 332 facing the first lower template 333, and a first cutter 334 passes through the first boss 3321. The first boss 3321 is adapted to the interval between the two first guide plates 336 to ensure that the terminal strip does not jump or deviate during the cutting process.

The first stripper plate 332 is located on the side of the first back support plate 339 close to the first lower mold plate 333. The first cutting die assembly 33 also includes a first contour sleeve. The working principles of the first upper mold pad 337, the first upper mold plate 338, the first back support plate 339, the first stripper plate 332 and the first contour sleeve can refer to the working principles of existing stamping molds, and will not be repeated one by one in this embodiment.

[0066] Optionally, a waste through hole is opened at the bottom of the first lower template 333, and a first waste collection box is installed below the waste through hole. The first waste collection box is used for winding up the material bridge of the terminal strip.

[0067] Optionally, the first cutting mechanism 3 also includes a first electrical detection component 34, which is located downstream of the first die cutting component 33. The first electrical detection component 34 is used to electrically detect the terminal material strip after the material bridge is cut off. Unqualified terminals no longer need to be fastened with iron shells, reducing waste.

[0068] like Figure 7 As shown, the first electrical detection component 34 includes a fourth power member 341 and an electrical detection head 342 . The electrical detection head 342 is installed at the output end of the fourth power member 341 . The fourth power member 341 is used to drive the electrical detection head 342 to abut against the terminal strip.

[0069] Optionally, the first cutting mechanism 3 further includes a defective product cutting component 35 , which is located downstream of the first electrical detection component 34 and is used to cut off defective terminals.

[0070] like Figure 8 and Fig. 9 As shown, optionally, the third cutting mechanism 7 includes a turntable 71, a clamping assembly 72, a turntable power part 73 and a third die-cutting assembly 74. The clamping assembly 72 is installed on the turntable 71. The turntable 71 is rotatably installed on the output end of the turntable power part 73 and the turntable 71 is located between the second cutting mechanism 6 and the carrying mechanism 4. The third die-cutting assembly 74 is located on one side of the turntable 71. The clamping assembly 72 is used to receive the iron shell material strip cut off by the second cutting mechanism 6, and the third die-cutting assembly 74 is used to cut off the iron shell base strip carried on the clamping assembly 72.

[0071] like Fig.10 and Fig.11As shown, optionally, a clamping power member 75 is installed at the end of the supporting platform 1 corresponding to the second cutting mechanism 6 and one side of the carrying mechanism 4. The clamping assembly 72 includes a product seat 721, a clamping member 722, a fixed seat 723 and a rack 724. The fixed seat 723 is fixedly installed on the turntable 71, and the product seat 721 is located on one side of the fixed seat 723. The clamping member 722 is rotatably installed on one side of the fixed seat 723 in a vertical plane. The clamping member 722 is used to clamp and fix the iron shell material strip on the product seat 721. The outer periphery of the clamping member 722 is provided with external meshing teeth 725, and the rack 724 is meshed and connected with the external meshing teeth 725. The clamping power member 75 is used to selectively drive the rack 724 to move in the vertical direction.

[0072] Optionally, a push member 76 is provided at the end of the second cutting mechanism 6, and the product seat 721 is slidably connected to the fixed seat 723 along the radial direction of the turntable 71. The clamping assembly 72 also includes a push member 726, which is located on the side of the product seat 721 close to the center point of the turntable 71. The push member 76 is used to selectively drive the push member 726 to push the product seat 721 close to the edge of the turntable 71.

[0073] Optionally, the clamping assemblies 72 are arranged in a plurality of groups, and the plurality of groups of clamping assemblies 72 are arranged at equal intervals along the circumference of the turntable 71 .

[0074] Specifically, the clamping components 72 are arranged in four groups, and the clamping power members 75 are arranged in two groups. The first clamping power member 75 is located below the end of the second cutting mechanism 6, and the second clamping power member 75 is located on one side of the carrying mechanism 4. When the first group of clamping components 72 follows the turntable 71 to rotate to the end side of the second cutting mechanism 6, the conveying end of the push member 76 leans against the push member 726 and finally pushes the push member 726 to move. The push member 726 drives the product seat 721 to approach the edge of the turntable 71 to receive the product composed of a single iron shell and a sheet-like iron shell base belt output by the second cutting mechanism 6 (the iron shell is carried on the product seat 721, and the sheet-like iron shell base belt is suspended). After that, the output end of the first clamping power member 75 leans against the rack 724 and finally pushes the rack 724 to move upward. When the rack 724 moves upward, it drives the clamping member 722 to rotate, thereby clamping the iron shell Tightly attached to the product seat 721, the output end of the push member 76 is retracted and away from the push member 726, and the turntable power member 73 drives the turntable 71 to rotate 90 degrees in the horizontal plane. The next group of clamping components 72 follows the turntable 71 to rotate to the side of the end of the second cutting mechanism 6 to continue to receive and clamp the product composed of a single iron shell and a sheet-like iron shell base band, and the first group of clamping components 72 follows the turntable 71 to rotate to the side of the third cutting component. The third cutting component cuts off the sheet-like iron shell base band and pushes the product seat 721 back to its original position. The turntable power member 73 continues to drive the turntable 71 to rotate 90 degrees in the horizontal plane. The first group of clamping components 72 follows the turntable 71 to rotate to the side of the carrier mechanism 4, and the second clamping power member 75 drives the rack 724 to move downward. When the rack 724 moves downward, it drives the clamping member 722 to release the iron shell, so that the transfer snap-fit ​​mechanism 8 can grab the iron shell.

[0075] The terminal unloading mechanism 2 and the iron shell unloading mechanism 3 can both refer to the existing material reel unloading mechanism, and will not be described in detail in this embodiment.

[0076] The working principle of the second cutting mechanism 6 can refer to the first cutting mechanism 3 . The difference between the second cutting mechanism 6 and the first cutting mechanism 3 is that the second cutting mechanism 6 is used for cutting the iron shell base strip.

[0077] Optionally, the transfer snap-fit ​​mechanism 8 includes a transfer component 81 and a snap-fit ​​component 82, the snap-fit ​​component 82 is connected to the output end of the transfer component 81, the transfer component 81 is used to drive the snap-fit ​​component 82 to move back and forth between the third cutting mechanism 7 and the transport mechanism 4, and a suction nozzle is provided at the end of the snap-fit ​​component 82.

[0078] The transport mechanism 4 includes a second track assembly and a second pushing assembly. After the iron shell is buckled on the terminal, the second pushing assembly pushes the terminal base band forward. A second electrical detection assembly is also provided on one side of the second track assembly. The second electrical detection assembly is used to detect whether the terminal buckled with the iron shell is qualified.

[0079] like Fig.12 As shown, the fourth cutting mechanism 9 includes a fifth power member 91, a second cutter member 92 and a third cutter member 93. The second cutter member 92 and the third cutter member 93 are both installed at the output end of the fifth power member 91, and the second cutter member 92 is located upstream of the third cutter member 93. When the fifth power member 91 drives the second cutter member 92 and the third cutter member 93 to approach the terminal with the iron shell, the second cutter member 92 cuts the connection between the terminal and the terminal base band, and the third cutter member 93 cuts off the terminal base band that is no longer connected to the terminal, thereby obtaining a terminal base band with a shorter length, which is convenient for collecting the terminal base band as waste. Optionally, when the second electrical detection component detects that the terminal with the iron shell is unqualified, the second cutter member 92 does not need to cut and separate the terminal from the terminal base band, but the third cutter member 93 cuts the terminal base band connected to the terminal and recycles it as waste.
