Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of insertion machines, and particularly to a reed switch feeder and an insertion machine thereof. Background Art

[0002] An insertion machine is a mechanical device that inserts some regular electronic components into the conductive through-holes of a printed circuit board. Among them, the reed switch insertion machine is more commonly used. For a reed switch insertion machine, a feeder is mostly used to automatically feed reed switches. However, when such a feeder feeds reed switches, due to the lack of proper positioning and deviation correction of the reed switches, processing deviations are likely to occur, such as causing asymmetry between pins or damaging the pins, resulting in subsequent insertion failures.

[0003] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a reed switch feeder and an insertion machine thereof that can effectively position the reed switches to overcome the above defects. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a reed switch feeder that can effectively position the reed switches.

[0005] Another purpose of the present invention is to provide an insertion machine that can effectively position the reed switches.

[0006] To achieve the above purposes, the reed switch feeder of the present invention includes a frame and a conveying device, a centering adjustment device, and a bending device that are respectively installed on the frame. The centering adjustment device and the bending device are arranged in sequence along the conveying direction of the conveying device. A magnetic and reed-switch-carrying carrier seat is installed on the conveying device. When the conveying device sends the carrier seat to the centering adjustment device, the centering adjustment device laterally pushes the reed switch. The bending device includes a driving member, a pushing member, a receiving seat, and a bending member. The driving member is slidably installed on the frame. The receiving seat is arranged to float up and down. The receiving seat has at least a first position below the conveying device and a second position above the conveying device relative to the conveying device. The bending member is arranged above the receiving seat. The bending member and the receiving seat are arranged offset in the lateral direction. The driving member is linked with the pushing member and the receiving seat respectively. When the carrier seat is conveyed above the receiving seat, the sliding driving member drives the receiving seat to move upward to the second position to receive the reed switch of the carrier seat. At the same time, the pushing member is pushed by the driving member to move laterally closer to the receiving seat, so that the pushing member laterally pushes the reed switch.

[0007] Preferably, the pushing member is slidably installed on the frame, and the pushing member is pushed by the driving member to make a lateral sliding movement closer to the receiving seat.

[0008] Preferably, the bending device further includes a swinging member, which is hinged to the frame. The first end of the swinging member is hinged to the receiving seat, and the second end of the swinging member is disposed below the driving member. When the second end of the swinging member is pressed down by the driving member, the swinging member swings, and the swinging member drives the receiving seat to move upward.

[0009] Preferably, the bending device further includes a mounting seat, which is mounted on the frame. The pushing member is disposed in the mounting seat, and the bending member is mounted on one side of the top of the mounting seat. The bending member is a roller structure.

[0010] Preferably, the reed switch feeder of the present invention further includes a lead cutting device, which is disposed between the centering adjustment device and the bending device along the conveying direction of the conveying device. The lead cutting device includes a pressing and positioning device and cutting devices disposed on both sides of the pressing and positioning device. The pressing and positioning device is adapted to press down the reed switch on the carrier seat, and the cutting devices punch down the leads of the reed switch when the pressing and positioning device presses the reed switch.

[0011] Preferably, the centering adjustment device includes lateral pushing devices that are arranged opposite to each other in the lateral direction and are respectively disposed on both sides of the conveying device.

[0012] Preferably, the reed switch feeder of the present invention further includes a feeding device, which includes a feeding manipulator and a pipe fitting temporary storage device. The pipe fitting temporary storage device is docked to one side of the front end of the conveying device. The feeding manipulator is adapted to grab the reed switch stored in the pipe fitting temporary storage device onto the carrier seat of the conveying device. The pipe fitting temporary storage device loads the reed switch in a suspended manner.

[0013] Preferably, the pipe fitting temporary storage device includes two permanently magnetized square blocks that are arranged obliquely. The two permanently magnetized square blocks are arranged opposite to each other with an interval. One end of the two permanently magnetized square blocks is arranged close to each other, and the other end of the two permanently magnetized square blocks is arranged away from each other.

[0014] To achieve the above-mentioned another object, the plug-in machine of the present invention includes a pick-and-place robot, a board conveying line, and the above-mentioned reed switch feeder. The board conveying line is docked to one side of the rear end of the conveying device. The board conveying line is adapted to convey a printed circuit board. The pick-and-place robot is mounted beside the board conveying line. The pick-and-place robot is adapted to take out the reed switch output from the conveying device and insert the taken-out reed switch into the printed circuit board.

[0015] Preferably, the conveying direction of the conveying device is arranged orthogonally to the conveying direction of the plate conveying line. The plate conveying line includes a mounting frame, a conveyor belt group and a pressing plate device mounted on the mounting frame. The pressing plate device positions the printed circuit board being conveyed onto the conveyor belt group.

[0016] Preferably, a picking gripper, a pin pressing device and a positioning block are installed at the output end of the picking and inserting robot. The positioning block is arranged inside the picking gripper, and the pin pressing device is arranged on both sides of the picking gripper. When the picking gripper clamps the reed switch, the pin pressing device presses down the bent part of the pins of the clamped reed switch, and the top of the clamped reed switch abuts against the positioning block.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the reed switch feeder of the present invention includes a machine frame and a conveying device, a centering adjustment device and a bending device respectively installed on the machine frame. The centering adjustment device and the bending device are arranged in sequence along the conveying direction of the conveying device. A magnetic and load-bearing seat for carrying the reed switch is installed at the output end of the conveying device. When the conveying device sends the load-bearing seat to the centering adjustment device, the centering adjustment device laterally pushes the reed switch to achieve centering adjustment of the reed switch. The bending device includes a driving member, a pushing member, a receiving seat and a bending member. The driving member is slidably installed on the machine frame, the receiving seat is arranged to float up and down, and the receiving seat has at least a first position below the conveying device and a second position above the conveying device relative to the conveying device. The bending member is arranged above the receiving seat, and the bending member and the receiving seat are arranged offset in the lateral direction. The driving member is connected to the pushing member and the receiving seat in a linkage arrangement. When the load-bearing seat is conveyed above the receiving seat, the sliding driving member drives the receiving seat to move upward to the second position to receive the reed switch of the load-bearing seat. At the same time, the pushing member is pushed by the driving member to move laterally close to the receiving seat, so that the pushing member laterally pushes the reed switch to achieve re-centering adjustment of the reed switch. It can be seen that before the pins of the reed switch are bent, the reed switch is centered and adjusted twice. After the reed switch is corrected, it is effectively positioned and processing errors are not likely to occur.

[0018] It can be understood that since the inserting machine of the present invention includes the above-mentioned reed switch feeder, before the reed switch is inserted, the reed switch is corrected twice effectively and is effectively positioned. Therefore, using the parts of the present invention can improve the accuracy of insertion. Description of the Drawings

[0032] In order to elaborate on the technical content and structural features of the present invention in detail, the following further explanations are made in combination with the implementation modes and accompanied by the drawings.

[0033] As Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown in the figure, the plug-in machine 100 of the present invention includes a material-taking and plugging robot 10, a board conveying line 20, and a reed switch feeder 30. The reed switch feeder 30 is used to supply reed switches 200, realizing automatic feeding of the reed switches 200. The reed switch feeder 30 uses a conveying device 32 (detailed below) included therein to convey the reed switches 200. The board conveying line 20 is docked on one side of the rear end of the conveying device 32. The board conveying line 20 is suitable for conveying printed circuit boards 300. The material-taking and plugging robot 10 is installed beside the board conveying line 20. The material-taking and plugging robot 10 is suitable for taking out the reed switches 200 output by the conveying device 32 and plugging the taken-out reed switches 200 onto the printed circuit boards 300. Therefore, the plug-in machine 100 of the present invention can automatically feed the reed switches 200 and can automatically plug the reed switches 200 onto the printed circuit boards 300. To improve production efficiency, the present invention is provided with two sets of reed switch feeders 30 arranged side by side, but not limited thereto. Two groups of material-taking and plugging robots 10 are correspondingly provided, and two groups of material-taking and plugging robots 10 are used to achieve rapid and efficient plugging of the printed circuit boards 300.

[0034] Among them, as Figures 2 to 6 shown, the reed switch feeder 30 of the present invention includes a frame 31 and a conveying device 32, a centering adjustment device 33, and a bending device 34 each installed on the frame 31. The centering adjustment device 33 and the bending device 34 are arranged in sequence along the conveying direction of the conveying device 32. A magnetic and load-bearing seat 321 for carrying the reed switches 200 is installed on the conveying device 32. When the conveying device 32 sends the load-bearing seat 321 to the centering adjustment device 33, the centering adjustment device 33 laterally pushes the reed switch 200 to achieve centering adjustment of the reed switch 200. The bending device 34 includes a driving member 341, a pushing member 342, a receiving seat 343, and a bending member 344. The driving member 341 is slidably installed on the frame 31. The receiving seat 343 is arranged to float up and down. The receiving seat 343 has at least a first position below the conveying device 32 and a second position above the conveying device 32 relative to the conveying device 32. The bending member 344 is arranged above the receiving seat 343. The bending member 344 and the receiving seat 343 are arranged offset in the lateral direction. The driving member 341 is linked with the pushing member 342 and the receiving seat 343 respectively. When the load-bearing seat 321 is conveyed above the receiving seat 343, the sliding driving member 341 drives the receiving seat 343 to move upward to the second position to receive the reed switch 200 of the load-bearing seat 321. At the same time, the pushing member 342 is pushed by the driving member 341 to move laterally closer to the receiving seat 343, so that the pushing member 342 laterally pushes the reed switch 200 to achieve secondary centering adjustment of the reed switch 200. It can be seen that before the pins of the reed switch 200 are bent, the reed switch 200 undergoes two centering adjustments successively. After the reed switch 200 is corrected, it is effectively positioned and is not prone to processing errors.

[0035] As Figures 2 to 6 , Figure 12 shown, when bending the pins of the reed switch 200, after using an external mechanism (such as a manipulator, etc.) to lift the reed switch 200 upward, the pins of the reed switch 200 are blocked by the bending member 344 and bent. After getting out of the block of the bending member 344, the bending process of the pins of the reed switch 200 is completed. Preferably, the conveying device 32 is of a chain structure, and the bearing seat 321 is installed on the chain of the chain structure. In the attached drawings, part of the conveying device 32 hides the chain, and only the sprocket is shown, but it should be understood that it is a complete chain structure. In this embodiment, the driving member 341 is driven by a driving cylinder 3411 to slide. Of course, according to actual needs, other linear driving structures can be selected for driving, so it is not limited thereto. The purpose of the lateral offset between the bending member 344 and the receiving seat 343 is that the bending member 344 and the receiving seat 343 are misaligned laterally, and the bending member 344 better applies the torque to the pin to perform the bending operation. The magnetic bearing seat 321 can firmly hold the reed switch 200 to prevent the reed switch 200 from shifting, loosening and falling off.

[0036] As Figures 2 to 6 shown, the pushing member 342 is slidably installed on the frame 31. The pushing member 342 is pushed by the driving member 341 to perform a lateral sliding movement close to the receiving seat 343 to realize the pushing of the reed switch 200. Further, the bending device 34 further includes a swinging member 345 and a mounting seat 346. The swinging member 345 is hinged to the frame 31. The first end of the swinging member 345 is hinged to the receiving seat 343. The second end of the swinging member 345 is located below the driving member 341. The swinging member 345 swings when being pressed down by the driving member 341 at its second end, and the swinging swinging member 345 drives the receiving seat 343 to move upward. The provided swinging member 345 realizes the linkage between the driving member 341 and the receiving seat 343, and the linkage relationship is simple. The mounting seat 346 is installed on the frame 31. The pushing member 342 is arranged in the mounting seat 346. The bending member 344 is installed on one side of the top of the mounting seat 346. The bending member 344 is of a roller structure. The mounting seat 346 provides a bearing function for the bending member 344, and the pushing member 342 is arranged in the mounting seat 346, making the structure of the bending device 34 compact. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the sliding direction of the driving member 341 and the sliding direction of the pushing member 342 are arranged orthogonally, but it is not limited thereto. The driving member 341 can drive the pushing member 342 and the swinging member 345 to move by setting an inclined surface or a transition surface by itself, but it is not limited thereto. A roller structure is installed at the second end of the swinging member 345 to reduce friction. To realize the automatic reset of the receiving seat 343, a spring (not marked in the figure) is installed between the receiving seat 343 and the frame 31, and the spring always has a tendency to drive the receiving seat 343 to move downward.

[0037] As Figure 2 and Figure 7As shown in the figure, the reed switch feeder 30 of the present invention further includes a lead trimming device 35. The lead trimming device 35 is arranged between the centering adjustment device 33 and the bending device 34 along the conveying direction of the conveying device 32. The lead trimming device 35 is used to cut the leads so that the length of each reed switch 200 is kept consistent. The lead trimming device 35 includes a material pressing locator 351 and cutting devices 352 arranged on both sides of the material pressing locator 351. The material pressing locator 351 is adapted to press down the reed switch 200 on the carrier seat 321, and the cutting devices 352 cut the leads of the reed switch 200 downward when the material pressing locator 351 presses the reed switch 200. The cutting devices 352 and the material pressing locator 351 are arranged horizontally. Positioned by the material pressing locator 351, the cutting devices 352 will not shift when cutting the leads.

[0038] As Figure 2 and Figure 12 shown in the figure, the centering adjustment device 33 includes lateral pushers 331 arranged opposite to each other horizontally and respectively arranged on both sides of the conveying device 32. The lateral pushers 331 adopt a cylinder structure, but are not limited thereto, and can be applied as other linear drive structures according to actual needs. On both sides of the conveying device 32, there is respectively a first sensor 36 for detecting whether the leads are placed horizontally and a second sensor 37 for detecting whether there is a reed switch 200 placed on the carrier seat 321, to detect whether the reed switch 200 is placed correctly and whether there is a reed switch 200 placed on the receiving seat 343. Preferably, a camera module 311 is installed above the conveying device 32 and at the conveying front end of the bending device 34. The camera module 311 is used to detect whether there is a reed switch 200 placed on the receiving seat 343. The camera module 311 adopts an existing structure, but is not limited thereto.

[0039] As Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown in the figure, the reed switch feeder 30 of the present invention further includes a feeding device 38. The feeding device 38 includes a feeding manipulator 381 and a pipe fitting temporary storage 382. The pipe fitting temporary storage 382 is connected to one side of the front end of the conveying device 32. The feeding manipulator 381 is adapted to grab the reed switch 200 stored in the pipe fitting temporary storage 382 and place it on the carrier seat 321 of the conveying device 32. The pipe fitting temporary storage 382 loads the reed switches 200 in a suspended manner. Using the feeding device 38 can automatically feed the reed switches 200 to the conveying device 32. The feeding manipulator 381 can adopt an existing structure, for example, the XZ two-axis drive structure provided by a preferred embodiment of the present invention, but is not limited thereto. The feeding manipulator 381 can grab the reed switches 200 by means of suction, clamping, etc.

[0040] Specifically, the pipe fitting storage 382 includes two permanently magnetized square magnets 3821 arranged obliquely. The two permanently magnetized square magnets 3821 are arranged facing each other with an interval, one end of the two permanently magnetized square magnets 3821 is arranged close to each other, and the other end of the two permanently magnetized square magnets 3821 is arranged away from each other. The magnetic field space is created by the two permanently magnetized square magnets 3821, enabling the reed switch 200 to float in the magnetic field space. In this embodiment, the magnetic field space is narrow at the upper end and wide at the lower end, and the magnetic field intensity at the upper end is stronger than that at the lower end. After the reed switch 200 is placed, the reed switch 200 can automatically fill the position from bottom to top, facilitating the feeding of the loading manipulator 381. Preferably, the pipe fitting storage 382 further includes a sensor 3822. The sensor 3822 is located in the lower half of the magnetic field space and is used to detect whether the reed switch 200 has reached the specified position, facilitating the grasping of the loading manipulator 381. The sensor 3822 can adopt an existing device, so it will not be elaborated here. Further, a reed switch feeding bin 39 is connected to the front end of the pipe fitting storage 382 for feeding. The reed switch feeding bin 39 adopts a linear vibration feeding method, but is not limited thereto. The reed switches 200 flowing out of the reed switch feeding bin 39 flow to the pipe fitting storage 382 accordingly.

[0041] As Figure 1 and Figure 11 shown, the conveying direction of the conveying device 32 is arranged orthogonally to the conveying direction of the board conveying line 20. Such an arrangement is conducive to optimizing the structure and making the structure compact. The board conveying line 20 includes a mounting frame 21, a conveyor belt group 22 and a pressing device 23 mounted on the mounting frame 21. The pressing device 23 positions the printed circuit board 300 to be conveyed onto the conveyor belt group 22. After the printed circuit board 300 is positioned by the pressing device 23, displacement will not occur. Specifically, the pressing device 23 positions the printed circuit board 300 in a downward pressing manner. In this embodiment, the pressing device 23 has two pressing methods. One is to press one side of the printed circuit board 300 by using a positioning cylinder 231. The other is by using a rotating rod 232. The rotating rod 232 is rotatably mounted on the mounting frame 21 at the center. The rotating rod 232 is driven to rotate by means of a cylinder or other structures (but not limited thereto). A pressing block 233 is installed on the rotating rod 232, and the rotation of the rotating rod 232 drives the pressing block 233 to press on the other side of the printed circuit board 300. After the two sides of the printed circuit board 300 are tightly pressed, the stable positioning of the printed circuit board 300 is achieved.

[0042] Further, a blocking member 234 is installed on the rotating rod 232. The rotation of the rotating rod 232 drives the rotation of the blocking member 234 to block the conveyance of the printed circuit board 300. At the same time, the pressing block 233 also presses down on one side of the printed circuit board 300. Preferably, two layers of conveyor belt groups 22 are installed on the mounting frame 21. The printed circuit board 300 carried by the lower conveyor belt group 22 is fed to the next plug-in machine.

[0043] As Figure 1 , Figures 8 to 12 shown, a pick - up gripper 11, a pin - pressing device 12, and a positioning block 13 are installed at the output end of the pick - up and insertion robot 10. The positioning block 13 is arranged inside the pick - up gripper 11, and the pin - pressing device 12 is arranged on both sides of the pick - up gripper 11. When the pick - up gripper 11 clamps the reed switch 200, the pin - pressing device 12 presses down the bent part of the pins of the clamped reed switch 200, and the top of the clamped reed switch 200 abuts against the positioning block 13. After the pick - up gripper 11 grabs the reed switch 200 flowing out from the end of the conveying device 32, the pin - pressing device 12 moves downward accordingly, pressing the bent part of the pins to prevent the bent part of the pins from rebounding. The top of the reed switch 200 clamped by the pick - up gripper 11 abuts against the positioning block 13 to achieve positioning and prevent the reed switch 200 from floating up and popping out during insertion. Preferably, the pick - up and insertion robot 10 can adopt an existing multi - axis robot, and this structure is well - known to those skilled in the art, so it will not be elaborated here. The pin - pressing device 12 uses a cylinder as the power source to press down, but it is not limited to this. It can be understood that a camera module (not marked) is installed at the output end of the pick - up and insertion robot 10 for imaging and positioning the position to be inserted.

[0044] The following briefly describes the processing process of the plug - in machine 100 of the present invention: The reed switch feeding bin 39 feeds the reed switch 200 to the pipe fitting temporary storage 382, and the feeding manipulator 381 grabs the reed switch 200 suspended in the pipe fitting temporary storage 382 onto the carrier 321 of the conveying device 32. The conveying device 32 conveys the carrier 321 from front to back. The first sensor 36 detects whether the pins of the reed switch 200 are placed roughly horizontally (if not, adjustment is made), and the second sensor 37 detects whether there is a reed switch 200 placed on the carrier 321. Then, two lateral pusher 331 push the reed switch 200 laterally to center - adjust the reed switch 200.

[0045] Next, the conveying device 32 continues to convey the carrier seat 321 backward. When the carrier seat 321 reaches the lead cutting device 35, the pressing and positioning device 351 presses down on the reed switch 200 on the carrier seat 321 to position the reed switch 200, and the cutting device 352 punches downward to cut the leads of the reed switch 200. Then, the conveying device 32 continues to convey the carrier seat 321 backward. When the carrier seat 321 reaches or is about to reach above the receiving seat 343, the driving cylinder 3411 drives the driving member 341 to slide. The sliding driving member 341 drives the pushing member 342 to make a lateral slide close to the receiving seat 343. At the same time, the driving member 341 pushes downward on the second end of the swinging member 345. Correspondingly, the first end of the swinging member 345 moves upward, driving the receiving seat 343 to rise. The receiving seat 343 upwardly receives the reed switch 200 on the carrier seat 321, and then the carrier seat 321 flows out backward. Then, the picking and inserting robot 10 drives the picking gripper 11 to grasp upward the reed switch 200 on the receiving seat 343. During the upward grasping process, the leads of the reed switch 200 are blocked by the bending member 344 and are bent, realizing the bending of the leads of the reed switch 200. The reed switch 200 grasped by the picking gripper 11 abuts against the positioning block 13 to position the reed switch 200 and prevent the situation of floating height. The lead pressing device 12 extends downward to press the bent part of the leads.

[0046] During the process of feeding the reed switch 200 by the reed switch feeder 30, the board conveying line 20 conveys the printed circuit board 300, and the conveyor belt group 22 drives the printed circuit board 300 to reach the designated position. The pressing plate device 23 blocks the flow of the printed circuit board 300 and presses downward to position the printed circuit board 300.

[0047] The picking and inserting robot 10 drives the picking gripper 11 to reach the designated position, and the picking gripper 11 inserts the reed switch 200 onto the printed circuit board 300. After the insertion of the reed switch 200 into the printed circuit board 300 is completed, the pressing plate device 23 releases the blocking and downward pressing on the printed circuit board 300, and the conveyor belt group 22 continues to convey the printed circuit board 300 out.

[0048] It should be noted that Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 4 the direction indicated by the arrow X in

[0049] is the direction from front to back, the direction indicated by the arrow Y is the direction from left to right, that is, the lateral direction as mentioned above, and the direction indicated by the arrow Z is the direction from bottom to top, but not limited to this. The above-disclosed are only the preferred examples of the present invention and cannot be used to limit the scope of the rights of the present invention. Therefore, equivalent changes made according to the claims of the present invention all fall within the scope covered by the present invention.
