For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0043] See also Figures 1 to 9 The terminal carrier tape punching device shown includes a conveying mechanism, a placement table 9, a material pushing mechanism 6, and a cutting mechanism.

[0044] The structure of the conveying mechanism is as follows: it is used to convey the terminal carrier tape, which is a receiving tray and a conveying channel. One end of the terminal carrier tape is collected and wound on the receiving tray, and the other end is conveyed to the pushing mechanism 6 along the conveying channel.

[0045] The terminal carrier includes a long strip carrier body 1 and a terminal 2. The carrier body 1 is provided with a plurality of accommodation units for accommodating the terminal along its length direction, and the extension direction of the terminal is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the terminal carrier. A plurality of terminals 2 can be evenly placed on the carrier body 1, and the terminals 2 can be placed neatly.

[0046] The placement table 9 is used to place the plastic product, and the plastic product is provided with a through hole for inserting the terminal. The placement table 9 is provided with a clamping member that can be opened and closed. When in a clamping state, the clamping member clamps the plastic product, and when in a loose state, the clamping member loosens the plastic product.

[0047] The pushing mechanism 6 and the placement table 9 are respectively arranged on both sides of the terminal carrier conveying direction. The pushing mechanism 6 includes a clamping assembly and a pushing drive component 63. The clamping assembly is used to clamp the terminals on the terminal carrier. The pushing drive component 63 is connected to the clamping assembly to drive the clamping assembly to move toward the placement table 9 to push the terminal into the opening of the plastic product located on the placement table 9 to realize the assembly of the terminal and the plastic product.

[0048] The pushing driving component 63 pushes the clamping assembly to move in a direction perpendicular to the terminal carrier conveying direction. The pushing driving component 63 can be a motor or a cylinder, and the driving shaft of the pushing driving component 63 is connected to the clamping assembly.

[0049] The clamping assembly includes a base 64 and a clamping member 61. One end of the clamping member 61 is rotatably arranged on the base 64 (a through hole is arranged at one end of the clamping member 61, a rotating shaft is arranged in the through hole, and both ends of the rotating shaft are connected to the base 64). The other end of the clamping member 61 is opposite to the placement table 9, and the other end of the clamping member 61 is provided with an upwardly recessed accommodating groove 65, and a space for clamping one end of the terminal is formed between the accommodating groove 65 and the base 64.

[0050] When one end of the clamping member 61 rotates until the other end of the clamping member 61 abuts against the upper surface of the base 64, one end of the terminal can be clamped in the space formed between the accommodating groove 65 and the base 64; when one end of the clamping member 61 rotates until the other end of the clamping member 61 is away from the upper surface of the base 64, the terminal can be disengaged from the space. The terminal is clamped by rotation, which causes little damage to the terminal, and for terminals of different heights, only the clamping member 61 needs to be replaced.

[0051] Compared with opening an opening on a pushing component, the pushing component moves linearly toward the terminal so that one end of the terminal enters the opening. This method is easy to damage the terminal because the terminal will be displaced when the pushing component moves toward the terminal and the component needs to be pressed against the terminal to prevent it from moving.

[0052] A plurality of receiving grooves 65 can be provided on one clamping member 61 for clamping a plurality of terminals. A plurality of clamping members 61 can be provided for clamping a plurality of terminals or processing a plurality of products at the same time.

[0053] The clamping assembly also includes a clamping drive component, which is connected to the clamping member 61 for driving the rotation of the clamping member 61. An opening is provided on the clamping member 61 at a position between the two ends, and a driving shaft of the clamping drive component extends into the opening and is connected to the clamping member 61. The driving direction of the clamping drive component is a vertical direction, which is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the terminal carrier. Since one end of the clamping member 61 is rotatably arranged on the base 64, when the driving shaft of the clamping drive component moves upward, the other end of the clamping member 61 rotates in a direction away from the base 64. When the driving shaft of the clamping drive component moves downward, the other end of the clamping member 61 rotates in a direction close to the base 64 until the other end of the clamping member 61 abuts against the upper surface of the base 64.

[0054] The clamping assembly further includes a limiting component 62, which is disposed on the base 64 and is used to limit the rotation angle of the clamping member 61. An arc-shaped limiting surface 66 is disposed on one side of the limiting component 62, and the arc-shaped limiting surface 66 is disposed opposite to the clamping member 61, and a distance is maintained between the arc-shaped limiting surface 66 and the clamping member 61. When the other end of the clamping member 61 rotates in a direction away from the base 64, it will abut against the arc-shaped limiting surface 66 and cannot continue to rotate.

[0055] The cutting mechanism is located above the terminal carrier and includes a cutter 71 and a cutting drive component. The cutter 71 is used to cut the carrier body between two adjacent accommodating units. The cutting drive component is connected to the cutter 71 to drive the cutter 71 to move toward or away from the terminal carrier.

[0056] The support mechanism includes a support platform 8 and a support driving component. The support platform 8 is located on one side of the pushing mechanism 6 and below the terminal carrier. The support driving component is connected to the support platform 8 to drive the support platform 8 to move toward or away from the terminal carrier.

[0057] The device has a punching state and a pushing state. When in the punching state, the clamping assembly of the pushing mechanism 6 clamps the terminal, the carrier body corresponding to the terminal is supported on the support table 8, and the cutter 71 cuts the carrier body; when in the pushing state, the support table 8 and the cutter 71 are both away from the terminal carrier, and the pushing mechanism 6 pushes the clamping assembly to move and then pushes the terminal into the opening of the plastic product located on the placement table 9.

[0058] The support platform 8 is provided with a first groove for accommodating the carrier body. The extension direction of the first groove is consistent with the conveying direction of the terminal carrier. The first groove also serves as a guide to prevent the carrier body from deviating during conveyance.

[0059] The support platform 8 is also provided with a second groove 81, the extension direction of the second groove 81 is perpendicular to the terminal carrier conveying direction, the first groove and the second groove 81 are connected, and the second groove 81 is used for the cutter 71 to pass through. The support platform 8 includes a first side plate, a second side plate and a bottom plate connected to the first side plate and the second side plate, and a first groove is formed between the first side plate, the bottom plate and the second side plate, and the first side plate and the second side plate are provided with a straight U-shaped groove recessed downward, and the straight U-shaped grooves on the first side plate and the second side plate are arranged relatively to form the second groove 81.

[0060] The carrier body is accommodated in the first groove. When the carrier body is cut, the cutter 71 is opposite to the second groove 81. The terminals are located on the upper surfaces of the first side plate and the second side plate. A gap is maintained between the carrier body and the bottom of the first groove (i.e., the upper surface of the bottom plate). When the cutter 71 cuts downwardly on the carrier body, it can enter the second groove 81 to better cut off this part of the carrier body.

[0061] The support mechanism also includes a guide rail, and the support platform 8 is arranged in the guide rail and can move along the guide rail. The extension direction of the guide rail is consistent with the conveying direction of the terminal carrier. The guide rail plays a guiding and supporting role, facilitating the support platform 8 to move toward or away from the terminal carrier.

[0062] The cutting mechanism also includes a main body, a cutter 71 is arranged on the main body, and the main body has a push surface 72, the push surface 72 is used to abut against the terminal carrier tape located on the support platform 8 in the punching state, the extension direction of the push surface 72 is consistent with the conveying direction of the terminal carrier tape, the extension direction of the cutter 71 is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the terminal carrier tape, and the extension direction of the push surface 72 is perpendicular to the extension direction of the cutter 71. When the cutter 71 cuts part of the terminal carrier tape, the cutter 71 and the push surface 72 both move downward, and the push surface 72 abuts against the carrier tape body to apply a downward push force to the carrier tape body to loosen the carrier tape. When the push drive component 63 pushes the terminal into the opening of the plastic product located on the placement platform 9, the support platform 8 returns to its position. Without the support of the support platform 8, the carrier tape can be better separated from the terminal and can fall, and the remaining terminal carrier tape continues to be conveyed forward.

[0063] The terminal carrier strip punching device also includes a collecting tube, which is located below the support platform 8. The collecting tube is used to receive the carrier body cut by the cutter 71. When part of the carrier body is cut off, the support platform 8 moves away from the terminal carrier and returns to its original position. At this time, the cut part of the carrier body falls into the collecting tube under the action of gravity because it is not supported by the support platform 8.

[0064] A guide platform is provided in the conveying direction of the terminal carrier tape. The guide platform is arranged opposite to the support platform 8 . A guide groove for conveying the terminal carrier tape is provided on the guide platform. The guide groove is connected to the first groove of the support platform 8 .

[0065] The terminal is inserted into the plastic product to form a plastic part 18, and the plastic part is shown in FIG. Fig.10 and Fig.11 .

[0066] The method of using the terminal carrier tape punching device of the present application to insert the terminal into the plastic product and cut off the carrier tape body is as follows:

[0067] S1, the clamping assembly of the pushing mechanism 6 clamps the terminal, the carrier body corresponding to the terminal is supported on the support table 8, and the cutter 71 cuts the carrier body;

[0068] S2, after the cutting is completed, the support table 8 and the cutter 71 are both away from the terminal carrier, and the push drive component pushes the terminal into the opening of the plastic product located on the placement table 9, and the carrier body containing the terminal falls down;

[0069] S3, the clamping assembly of the pushing mechanism 6 returns to its original position.

[0070] When the clamping assembly of the pushing mechanism 6 returns to its original position, the carrier tape body continues to be transported to the supporting platform 8, and steps S1, S2, and S3 are repeated.

[0071] By first clamping, then cutting, and finally pushing the terminal into the opening of the plastic product, not only is the damage to the terminal small, the assembly accuracy is high, and the terminal and the carrier body accommodating the terminal can be separated, and the carrier body can be stored, and new terminals and carrier bodies can continue to be transmitted, with high processing efficiency.

[0072] The carrier terminal in the present application is a special structure, and each accommodating unit includes a first baffle 11 and a second baffle 12. The first baffle 11 and the second baffle 12 both protrude from the upper surface of the long strip carrier body 1. The first baffle 11 and the second baffle 12 are respectively arranged on both sides of the length direction of the carrier body 1. A gap is maintained between the first baffle 11 and the second baffle 12. The surface where the first baffle 11 is located is parallel to the surface where the second baffle 12 is located and is perpendicular to the surface where the carrier body 1 is located.

[0073] The first baffle plate 11 and the second baffle plate 12 are both provided with an opening groove 13 (one or more opening grooves may be provided), and the terminal 2 can be movably accommodated in the opening grooves 13 of the first baffle plate 11 and the second baffle plate 12, that is, when the terminal 2 is placed in the opening groove 13, it can be stable and will not deviate or detach from the opening groove 13, which is convenient for storage and transportation; when an external force is applied to the terminal 2, the terminal 2 can be taken out from the opening groove 13, which is convenient for inserting the terminal 2 into the plastic product.

[0074] When the terminal is accommodated in the opening slot 13, the extension direction of the terminal 2 is perpendicular to the length direction of the carrier body 1 or forms an acute angle. It is optimal for one opening slot 13 to accommodate only one terminal 2. When the terminal 2 is inserted into a plastic product, one terminal 2 is inserted into one hole of the plastic product.

[0075] When the first baffle plate 11 and the second baffle plate 12 are arranged opposite to each other, an opening groove 13 is set on the first baffle plate 11, and an opening groove 13 is set on the second baffle plate 12, and the opening groove 13 on the first baffle plate 11 and the opening groove 13 on the second baffle plate 12 are arranged opposite to each other, when the terminal is accommodated in the opening groove 13, the extension direction of the terminal 2 is perpendicular to the length direction of the carrier body 1.

[0076] When the opening slot 13 on the first baffle plate 11 and the opening slot 13 on the second baffle plate 12 are not arranged opposite to each other, when the terminal is accommodated in the opening slot 13 , the extension direction of the terminal 2 forms an acute angle with the length direction of the carrier body 1 .

[0077] The opening slot 13 on the first baffle plate 11 is arranged opposite to the opening slot 13 on the second baffle plate 12 . When the terminal 2 is placed in the opening slot 13 , the extension direction of the terminal 2 is perpendicular to the length direction of the carrier body 1 .

[0078] The distance between the first baffle 11 and the second baffle 12 is smaller than the length of the terminal 2, that is, when the terminal 2 is placed in the opening groove 13, the two relatively distant ends of the terminal 2 extend outward from the opening grooves 13 of the first baffle 11 and the second baffle 12 respectively. Since the terminal 2 needs to be inserted into the plastic product, the clamping part needs to clamp one end of the terminal 2. When the terminal 2 is inserted into the plastic product, it is convenient for the clamping part to clamp the terminal 2, which is easy to operate. In addition, the carrier body 1, the first baffle 11 and the second baffle 12 are small in size, which saves processing costs.

[0079] The specific structure of the first baffle 11 and the second baffle 12 is as follows: they both include a first side wall, a second side wall, and a third side wall which are connected in sequence, the first side wall and the third side wall are arranged opposite to each other, the second side wall connects the first side wall, the third side wall and is connected to the carrier body 1, an open groove 13 is formed between the first side wall, the second side wall and the third side wall, when the terminal 2 is placed in the open groove 13, a gap is maintained between the terminal 2 and the upper surface of the carrier body 1, the terminal 2 is a metal part and cannot be worn, when the terminal 2 is placed in the open groove 13, it will not collide with the upper surface of the carrier body 1, which can prevent the terminal 2 from being scratched during transportation or processing, the upper end surface of the second side wall is higher than the upper surface of the carrier body 1, which can better protect the terminal 2.

[0080] The distance between the upper end surface of the second side wall and the upper surface of the carrier body 1 is the height of the second side wall. A smaller height can save costs and protect the terminals 2.

[0081] The first side wall and the third side wall both have ends away from the second side wall, and the ends both extend in a direction away from each other, and the ends have a bent portion, which is an arc or an inclined surface, and can increase the opening of the opening slot 13, making it easier to put the terminal 2 into the opening and to take the terminal 2 out of the opening. The other ends of the first side wall and the third side wall are connected to the second side wall.

[0082] The distance between the ends of the first side wall and the third side wall away from the second side wall and the bottom wall of the opening groove 13 (i.e., the upper end surface of the second side wall) is greater than the thickness of the terminal 2. When the terminal 2 is accommodated in the opening groove 13, it is not easy to detach from the opening groove 13.

[0083] The longitudinal section of the terminal 2 is square, and the cross-section of the opening groove 13 is square. When the terminal 2 is placed in the opening groove 13 of the first baffle 11 and the second baffle 12, the shape of the opening groove 13 is adapted to the terminal 2, so the terminal 2 can be better accommodated. When no external force is received, the terminal 2 is not easy to fall out of the opening groove 13.

[0084] A gap can be maintained between two adjacent accommodating units. After a terminal 2 is inserted into a plastic product, the accommodating unit accommodating the terminal 2 needs to be cut off to facilitate the subsequent terminal carrier to continue to be transmitted forward. A gap is maintained between two adjacent accommodating units to facilitate the cutting knife to cut the gap adjacent to the accommodating unit.

[0085] Furthermore, an opening 14 is provided on the carrier body 1 between two adjacent opening grooves 13, that is, an opening 14 is provided in the gap between two adjacent accommodating units. When the accommodating unit accommodating the terminal 2 is to be cut off, the cutting knife can quickly cut the gap adjacent to the accommodating unit, and at the same time can reduce the overall weight, making it convenient for conveying, storage and transportation.

[0086] The opening 14 is in a circular, polygonal, flower-shaped, star-shaped, triangular or other achievable shapes, and the shape is not limited.

[0087] The long strip carrier body 1 has two relatively far ends, and the ends of the two ends are respectively provided with extension parts extending along the length direction thereof. Two extension parts can be provided, and the two extension parts are arranged opposite to each other with a gap maintained therebetween. The extension parts can be convex points or columnar, and the cross-section of the opening groove 13 can be V-shaped or U-shaped.

[0088] The long strip carrier body 1 is made of metal material, such as aluminum, and can be bent, so it is easy to be wound and collected on a receiving tray, which is convenient for collection and transportation. When the long strip carrier body 1 is wound and collected on the receiving tray, a protective bag such as release paper can be wrapped on the end of the carrier body away from the accommodating unit to prevent damage to the terminal during winding.

[0089] When assembling the long strip carrier body 1 and the terminal 2, the terminal 2 only needs to be placed in the opening groove 13 of the first baffle 11 and the second baffle 12. The multiple terminals 2 are arranged in parallel and arranged neatly, which is convenient for collection and subsequent processing of inserting the terminal 2 into the plastic product.

[0090] The above embodiments are only for illustrating the technical concept and features of the present invention, and their purpose is to enable people familiar with the technology to understand the content of the present invention and implement it accordingly, and they cannot be used to limit the protection scope of the present invention. Any equivalent changes or modifications made according to the spirit of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
