Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of fuse assembly, in particular to an automatic square fuse assembly machine and an automatic square fuse assembly method. Background Art
[0002] A fuse is a protective device that protects electronic devices from overcurrent and serious damage caused by internal faults. Therefore, a fuse is also called a fuse link and is defined in international standards as a "fuse element." It is an electrical component installed in a circuit to ensure safe operation. With the increasing miniaturization and integration of products, the shape and size of fuses have diverged significantly from traditional fuses. They can be categorized by structure as flat-plate fuses, blade fuses, square fuses, and surface-mount fuses. Square fuses consist of a copper sheet (the fuse element), a lower base, and an upper cover. The internal copper sheet has two terminals, which correspond to two holes in the bottom of the lower base. During installation, the copper sheet is mounted on the lower base, with the two terminals plugging into the two holes in the lower base. The copper sheet and the lower base are secured with a snap-fit mechanism, and the upper cover is then installed on top of the lower base.

The present invention also includes a controller (not shown), specifically a PLC controller, for controlling the coordinated actions of the various devices.
[0064] In a specific embodiment, the first conveying device includes a turntable continuous belt feeding device 01, a shaping device 02, and a positioning pin copper belt feeding device 03. The turntable continuous belt feeding device 01, the shaping device 02, and the positioning pin copper belt feeding device 03 are sequentially arranged along the conveying direction. The positioning pin copper belt feeding device 03 is located between the tinning device 04 and the tinning visual inspection mechanism 05. The shaping device 02 is located between the tinning device 04 and the turntable continuous belt feeding device 03 and shapes the copper belt conveyed by the turntable continuous belt feeding device 03. Specifically, the positioning pin copper belt feeding device 03 sequentially conveys the copper belt to the shaping station, the tinning station, the tinning visual inspection station, and the cleaning station.
[0065] In a specific embodiment, Figure 2 As shown, the turntable continuous belt feeding device 01 includes a first bracket 011, a turntable 012, a motor 013 and a clamping roller assembly 014.

During operation, the piston rod of the first cylinder 2813 extends, driving the first U-shaped claws 2811 to extend and clamp the semi-finished products arranged on the conveyor track 40. Then, the piston rod of the second cylinder 2814 extends forward, driving the first cylinder 2813 and the second U-shaped claws to move a preset distance, causing each semi-finished product arranged on the conveyor track 40 to move forward one step. Then, the piston rod of the first cylinder 2813 retracts, driving the first U-shaped claws 2811 to retract and release the semi-finished products.

[0081] The working process of the square fuse automatic assembly machine of the present invention is as follows:
[0082] The motor 013 starts, driving the turntable 012 and the copper strip roll thereon to rotate. The copper strip 50 passes through the two clamping rollers and is transported forward by the two positioning pins of the copper strip feeding device 03. During the transportation process, the shaping, tinning, tinning detection, cleaning, drying and cutting processes are completed in sequence to obtain a copper sheet 60 with tinning in the middle. The copper sheet 60 is lifted by the two ejector pins 091 of the single-sheet feeding device 09 and transported to the single-sheet bending device 10 for bending to obtain a bent copper sheet 70. The bent copper sheet is transferred by the support rod 102 to the copper sheet carrier 114 of the assembly lower seat device. After the lower seat is output by the first vibrating disk 11, the lower seat is assembled with the said lower seat lifting device 112, U-shaped claw, first sheet pressing cylinder 13, limit cylinder 12, and pressing cylinder 113 to complete the assembly of the bent copper sheet 70 on the copper sheet carrier 110 and the lower seat 80 to obtain a semi-finished product. Next, the first conveyor assembly 281 of the second conveyor device 28 pushes the semi-finished product forward along the conveyor track 40, and it undergoes two rounds of hole expansion, loosening detection, defective piece sorting, power-on detection, power-on defective piece sorting, first visual inspection, and first appearance defective piece sorting before arriving at the upper cover assembly station. The negative pressure suction block 243 lifts the upper cover through negative pressure and moves the upper cover to the upper cover assembly station via the moving cylinder 241. At the upper cover assembly station, the upper cover assembly cylinder 242 of the upper cover assembly device 24 presses the suction block 243 and the upper cover it adsorbs downward to complete the assembly of the upper cover. Thereafter, the negative pressure suction block 243 releases the upper cover, and the upper cover assembly cylinder 242 and moving cylinder 241 return to their original positions. The first conveyor assembly 281 continues to push the semi-finished product with the upper cover forward, allowing it to complete the second visual inspection and second appearance defective piece sorting processes in sequence. Semi-finished products that have passed the upper cover assembly arrive at the second conveyor assembly 282, where they are arranged and integrated, switching to a step-by-step push mode in batches (four per batch). They are then continued forward by the third conveyor assembly 283, completing the second visual inspection, second appearance defective product sorting, and laser coding processes in sequence. Finally, the laser-coded product is the finished product, which is then pushed forward by the feeder of the finished product counting and blanking device 29 after passing through the counter 291 until it falls through the lower hopper 292 into the finished product collection box 293.

[0089] In a specific embodiment, in step 2, the single-sheet bending device first presses half of the terminal of the bent copper sheet into the lower seat, and then performs secondary sheet pressing to completely press the bent copper sheet into the lower seat.
[0090] In a specific embodiment, the hole expansion in step 3 uses a primary hole expansion device and a secondary hole expansion device to expand the semi-finished product twice, and the inspection in step 3 uses a loosening detection mechanism, a power-on detection mechanism and a first visual inspection mechanism to perform loosening detection, power-on detection and visual inspection on the semi-finished product respectively.
