DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0053] To make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention clearer, the present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments. The specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. It should be noted that the embodiments of the present invention and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict.

[0054] An antenna assembly process according to an embodiment of the present invention is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0055] This embodiment provides an antenna assembly process for an antenna assembly device, such as Figure 9-11 As shown, the antenna 6 includes an upper end 61, a vertical section 62, a first bending section 63, an inclined section 64, a second bending section 65, and a lower end 66. The upper end 61 is connected to the first end of the vertical section 62, the second end of the vertical section 62 is connected to the first end of the first bending section 63, the second end of the first bending section 63 is connected to the first end of the inclined section 64, the second end of the inclined section 64 is connected to the first end of the second bending section 65, and the second end of the second bending section 65 is connected to the lower end 66. The lower end 66 is arranged parallel to the upper end 61, and a downwardly opening connecting groove 67 is arranged on the lower end 66. The connecting groove 67 is used for assembly with the anode plate in the anode cylinder assembly 7. After assembly, the upper end 61 and the vertical section 62 are coaxially arranged with the anode cylinder assembly 7 and are vertically upward. It should be understood that the specific assembly structure of the antenna 6 and the anode plate in the anode cylinder assembly 7 is a prior art and will not be repeated here. Figure 1 As shown, the antenna assembly equipment includes:

[0056] Antenna feeding equipment 1, the antenna feeding equipment 1 is used to screen antennas 6 so that the antennas 6 are delivered according to a preset state;

[0057] A welding wire winding device 4, wherein the welding wire winding device 4 is used to wind welding wire 9 around the lower part of the antenna 6 selected by the antenna feeding device 1;

[0058] The welding platform 5 is used for the matching assembly of the antenna 6 and the anode plate in the anode cylinder assembly 7;

[0059] A laser welder 8, used for laser welding of the antenna 6 and the anode plate in the anode cylinder assembly 7;

[0060] The antenna transport device 2 moves between the antenna feeding device 1, the welding wire winding device 4, and the welding platform 5, so as to allow the laser welder 8 to complete the antenna welding.

[0061] It should be noted that the lower part of the antenna 6 includes a lower end 66 and a second bending section 65, and the welding wire winding device 4 can wind the welding wire 9 on the lower end 66 and / or the second bending section 65, both of which can meet the subsequent welding requirements of the antenna 6.

[0062] Among them, Figure 2-Figure 6 As shown, the antenna feeding device 1 includes a vibrating plate 11, a hopper 115 is arranged at the bottom of the vibrating plate 11, and a spiral track 112 that diffuses and rises is arranged on the outer side of the hopper 115. The spiral track 112 at least includes a first screening part 113, and the first screening part 113 is used to screen the antennas 6, and the antennas 6 are arranged in a preset state; a conveying track 12, and the conveying track 12 is connected to the outlet of the vibrating plate 11, and the conveying track 12 is used to transport the antennas 6 screened from the vibrating plate 11. Description The antenna 6 is kept in a preset state on the conveying track 12 and conveyed to the next process. Fig. 9 As shown, the antenna 6 is a slender structure. When it is fed on a large scale, it is easy to clump and difficult to separate. Manual sorting is time-consuming and labor-intensive, which seriously increases the production cost of the product and is not conducive to the automation of the production line. At the same time, the automation of the production line has relatively strict regulations on the material collection position and the direction and angle of the antenna 6. The use of the vibration disk 11 for screening can disperse the clumped antenna 6 during the vibration process. At the same time, by arranging a corresponding screening structure on the vibration disk 11, the antenna 6 is transported in a predetermined manner, which is convenient for the subsequent automatic material collection setting, thereby greatly improving the feeding speed of the antenna 6 and reducing the sorting cost of the antenna 6.

[0063] In this embodiment, the first screening part 113 includes a first outer plate 1131 and a first inner plate 1132, the first outer plate 1131 and the first inner plate 1132 extend to the conveying track 12, the first outer plate 1131 and the first inner plate 1132 are arranged in a "Λ" shape, and the angle β between the two is less than or equal to the bending angle θ of the first bending section 63 of the antenna, and the preset state includes: the first bending section 63 of the antenna 6 is placed on the angle. This setting enables the antenna 6 to form a stable transportation state under the action of the angle and the first bending section 63, which can reduce the risk of it being skewed during transportation and improve the screening quality.

[0064] Specifically, the first outer plate 1131 and the first inner plate 1132 are arranged at an angle, the width of the first outer plate 1131 is greater than the width of the first inner plate 1132, and the preset state further includes: at least a portion of the vertical section 62 of the antenna 6 is in contact with the first outer plate 1131, and at least a portion of the inclined section 64 of the antenna 6 is in contact with the first inner plate 1132. In this arrangement, the first outer plate 1131 and the first inner plate 1132 are arranged at an angle, so that the antenna 6 that does not meet the preset conditions slides off the first outer plate 1131 or the first inner plate 1132, thereby selecting the antenna 6 that meets the preset conditions and entering the next process, thereby improving the degree of automation of the selection of the antenna 6.

[0065] As an embodiment of the present invention, Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, the conveying track 12 includes a second inner plate 121 and a second outer plate 122, and the second inner plate 121 is arranged corresponding to the first inner plate 1132. This arrangement can ensure that the antenna 6 is conveyed in a stable state. It should be noted that the head end in the present application refers to the end of the incoming direction of the antenna 6 during the conveying process, and the tail end refers to the end close to the final conveying direction of the antenna 6.

[0066] In this embodiment, if Figure 2 As shown, a branching assembly 13 is arranged above the conveying track 12, and the branching assembly 13 is arranged at a position close to the rear end of the conveying track 12, and the branching assembly 13 is used to transport the antenna 6 individually. Since the efficiency of screening antennas 6 in the vibration plate 11 is relatively high, the antennas 6 in the conveying track 12 are often transported forward closely together, and a corresponding splitting structure needs to be arranged to realize the individual transport of the antenna 6, so as to facilitate the automatic retrieval of the antenna 6 in the subsequent process.

[0067] Specifically, Figure 3 , Fig.11As shown, the line branching assembly 13 includes a first line branching structure 131 and a second line branching structure 132, the first line branching structure 131 and the second line branching structure 132 move up and down relative to the conveying track 12, and the first line branching structure 131 and the second line branching structure 132 respectively rise and fall according to a preset rhythm and cooperate with each other to transfer a single antenna 6 to the antenna picking device 14. Specifically, a certain interval is maintained between the first line branching structure 131 and the second line branching structure 132, the distance of the interval is recorded as d, and the width of the upper end 61 of the antenna 6 is recorded as W, W<d. In a specific implementation process, when the first branch line structure 131 rises, the second branch line structure 132 is in a descending position to block the antenna 6. At this time, the antenna 6 on the lower side of the first branch line structure 131 moves toward the second branch line structure 132 and is blocked by the second branch line structure 132. After that, the first branch line structure 131 descends and presses on the antennas 6 on the lower side thereof, and the second branch line structure 132 rises. The antennas 6 between the first branch line structure 131 and the second branch line structure 132 continue to be transported forward, and one of the antennas 6 passes over the second branch line structure 132. 32, the second branch line structure 132 falls to prevent the transportation of other antennas 6. Preferably, W<d<2W. This setting makes it possible that there is only one movable antenna 6 between the first branch line structure 131 and the second branch line structure 132. When the second branch line structure 132 rises, the movable antenna 6 continues to be transported forward. At this time, the remaining antennas 6 are covered or blocked by the first branch line structure 131 and cannot be transported forward. When the transport of the movable antenna 6 is completed, the second branch line structure 132 falls, and the first branch line structure 131 rises to transport the next antenna 6. This setting can ensure the single transport of the antenna 6, providing convenience for subsequent processes.

[0068] As an embodiment of the present invention, Figure 6-Figure 8 As shown, the antenna feeding device 1 also includes an antenna picking device 14, the antenna picking device 14 includes a support wire portion 141, the support wire portion 141 is used to support the antenna 6, the antenna picking device 14 also includes a picking portion 146, the picking portion 146 is arranged on the support wire portion 141, and the picking portion 146 is used to provide a picking space. It should be understood that the antenna 6 transported from the conveying track 12 is in the process of vibration and movement. It is difficult to ensure its specific direction and position by directly transporting it to the picking position, which affects the subsequent picking. The picking portion 146 is a groove-shaped structure that runs through the support wire portion 141, which is convenient for manual or mechanical hand picking. Preferably, the top end of the support wire portion 141 is arranged at an angle or arc corresponding to the first bending section 63, so as to facilitate the stable transportation and support of the antenna 6.

[0069] As an embodiment of the present invention, Fig.12As shown, the antenna transport device 2 includes a rotatable clamping claw assembly 24, which performs relative grasping and releasing actions, and the clamping claw assembly 24 moves in the front-to-back, up-down, left-to-right directions. The clamping claw assembly 24 is used to grasp and place the antenna 6. The rotatable setting of the clamping claw assembly 24 enables the angle of the antenna 6 to be changed to meet the different requirements for the angle of the antenna 6 in different workstations. The clamping claw assembly 24 can move freely in the front-to-back, up-down, left-to-right directions so that the clamping claw assembly 24 can move freely between the antenna feeding device 1, the welding wire winding device 4, and the welding platform 5 to meet the transportation requirements of the antenna 6 in different processes.

[0070] In this embodiment, if Figure 14-17 As shown, the welding wire winding device 4 includes a wire supply device 42 and a wire winding device 41 , wherein the wire supply device 42 is used to supply welding wire 9 , and the antenna transportation device 2 transports the antenna to the wire winding device 41 to wind the welding wire around the lower part of the antenna 6 .

[0071] In an optional embodiment, the wire winding device includes a wire support extrusion portion 411, a wire pressing and cutting portion 412 and a wire passing portion 413, the wire support extrusion portion 411 can be rotated to abut or move away from the wire passing portion 413, the wire pressing and cutting portion 412 is arranged on the upper side of the wire passing portion 413, and moves up and down relative to the wire passing portion 413, the wire pressing and cutting portion 412 is used to cut the welding wire 9 and press it into a U shape when the wire support extrusion portion 411 rotates away from the wire passing portion 413, and the wire support extrusion portion 411 is used to wind the cut welding wire 9 on the antenna 6 after the wire support extrusion portion 411 is lifted. In the prior art, the winding of the welding wire 9 onto the antenna 6 is usually performed manually, which is time-consuming, labor-intensive and inefficient. This setting realizes the automatic flattening, supplying, cutting and winding of the welding wire 9, making the whole process quick and convenient, and providing convenient conditions for the automatic assembly of the antenna 6.

[0072] Specifically in this embodiment, a wire pressing platform 4131 is arranged on the upper side of the wire passing portion 413 away from the wire feeding device 42, the wire supporting and squeezing portion 411 includes a rotating body 4111, and a wire passing baffle 4112 extending toward the wire passing portion 413 is arranged on the top of the rotating body 4111 close to the wire passing portion 413. When the rotating body 4111 rotates relative to the wire passing portion 413, the wire passing baffle 4112 is away from the wire passing portion 413 or abuts against the wire passing portion 413. There are two plates 4112, which are respectively arranged on the front and rear sides of the rotating body 4111, and a wire passing groove 4113 is formed between the two wire passing baffles 4112. The wire passing groove 4113 is used to accommodate the welding wire 9 conveyed through the wire passing portion 413. A step structure 4114 is arranged on the lower side of the wire passing baffle 4112. When the wire passing baffle 4112 abuts against the wire passing portion 413, the step structure 4114 maintains a gap with the top end surface of the wire pressing platform 4131, and the gap is used to accommodate the lower end 66. When winding the welding wire 9, the wire-passing baffle 4112 abuts against the wire-passing portion 413, and the welding wire 9 is conveyed to the wire-passing groove 4113. When the welding wire 9 passing through the wire-passing portion 413 reaches a preset length, the rotating body 4111 rotates in a direction away from the wire-passing portion 413. At this time, the welding wire 9 is still confined in the wire-passing groove 4113 by the wire-passing baffle 4112, and the wire pressing and cutting portion 412 slides downward, and while cutting the welding wire 9, it is partially pressed on the wire pressing platform 4131 to form a U-shaped structure. The wire pressing and cutting part 412 rises and leaves the wire pressing platform 4131, and the antenna transportation equipment 2 places the antenna 6 on the wire pressing platform 4131. The antenna 6 is pressed on the bottom of the U-shaped welding wire 9. The rotating body 4111 rotates toward the wire passing part 413 and abuts against the wire passing part 413. During the rotation, the step structure 4114 pushes one side of the U-shaped structure of the welding wire 9, cooperates with the pressure of the antenna 6, and deforms it to cover the lower part of the antenna 6, thereby completing the winding of the welding wire 9.

[0073] As one of the preferred embodiments, Fig.13As shown, the antenna assembly equipment also includes a correction device 3, which is arranged between the vibration plate 11 and the welding wire winding device 4, and is used for angle correction of the antenna 6 before and after the welding wire 9 is wound around the antenna 6. When the antenna transport device 2 grabs the antenna 6, since the vertical section 62 is cylindrical, a small rotation is likely to occur at the moment of grabbing, resulting in the angle of the lower end 66 being not parallel to the wire pressing platform 4131, affecting the winding of the welding wire 9, or, after the welding wire 9 is wound around, the lower end 66 does not match the vertical angle of the antenna pin on the anode plate, affecting the assembly of the antenna 6. The setting of the correction device 3 can ensure that during the process of winding the antenna 6 around the welding wire 9 and the process of matching the antenna 6 with the anode plate, its angle can be fully adapted to ensure the smooth progress of automated production.

[0074] In one embodiment, the correction device 3 includes a correction chuck assembly 33, and the correction chuck assembly 33 includes two chucks arranged relatively to each other, and the two chucks move relatively to close or move away to release. This setting can correct the angle of the antenna 6 before and after the process of winding the antenna 6 around the welding wire 9, so as to ensure that the antenna 6 meets the angle requirements in the remaining processes and ensure the smooth operation of the automated production. In the specific operation process, the antenna transportation device 2 puts the upper end 61 of the antenna 6 between the two chucks, and the two chucks close and clamp the upper end 61 to complete the angle correction of the antenna 6. After that, the antenna transportation device 2 clamps the antenna 6 to enter the next process.

[0075] The process comprises:

[0076] Step S1: the antenna feeding device 1 screens the antennas 6, keeps the screened antennas 6 in a preset state, and transports them to a material taking position;

[0077] Step S2: the antenna transport device 2 grabs the antenna 6 at the material picking position;

[0078] Step S3: the antenna transport device 2 transports the antenna 6 to the welding wire winding device 4;

[0079] Step S4: the welding wire winding device 4 winds the welding wire 9 around the lower part of the antenna 6;

[0080] Step S5: the anode cylinder assembly 7 is pre-installed on the welding platform 5, and the antenna transport device 2 transports the antenna 6 wound with the welding wire 9 to the welding platform 5 for assembly with the anode plate in the anode cylinder assembly 7;

[0081] Step S6: The laser welder 8 welds and fixes the antenna 6 and the anode plate.

[0082] In this embodiment, the antenna transport device 2 is arranged near the rear end of the antenna feeding device 1 to facilitate material collection and transportation. In one preferred embodiment, the welding wire winding device 4 and the welding platform 5 are arranged on the front and rear sides of the antenna transport device 2. This arrangement can reduce the travel of the antenna transport device 2 in the front and rear directions, thereby making the structure of the antenna assembly device more compact, reducing its space occupancy, and facilitating the optimization of the equipment layout. Through the arrangement of the above process, the fully automatic installation process of the antenna 6 material selection, welding wire winding, assembly, and welding can be realized, eliminating the steps that require manual operation in the prior art, greatly improving the production efficiency of the magnetron anode, and reducing the production cost.

[0083] Specifically in this embodiment, the antenna feeding device 1 includes a vibration plate 11, a conveying track 12 and an antenna picking device 14. The conveying track 12 is used to convey the antenna 6 screened by the vibration plate 11 to the antenna picking device 14. The antenna picking device 14 can reciprocate along the conveying track 12 to convey the antenna 6 to the picking position;

[0084] The step S1 specifically includes:

[0085] Step S11: the vibration plate 11 screens the antenna 6 and transports it through the transport track 12;

[0086] Step S12: The conveying track 12 conveys the antenna 6 to the antenna picking device 14;

[0087] Step S13: the antenna picking device 14 moves to a picking position.

[0088] It should be understood that during the operation of a specific production line, the antenna 6 vibrated and transported by the conveying track 12 will usually have a partial offset. If the antenna transport device 2 is used directly to pick up materials, it is not easy to find the correct position, and clamping will occur, affecting the normal operation of the production line. In this setting, the antenna picking device 14 is used to transport the antenna 6 to the picking position and align the antenna 6 to facilitate the grabbing of the antenna transport device 2, which can effectively improve the production efficiency of the production line.

[0089] As one of the preferred embodiments, Figure 3 , Fig.11 As shown, a line splitting assembly 13 is arranged above the conveying track 12, and the line splitting assembly 13 includes a first line splitting structure 131 and a second line splitting structure 132. The first line splitting structure 131 and the second line splitting structure 132 move up and down relative to the conveying track 12, and the first line splitting structure 131 and the second line splitting structure 132 respectively rise and fall according to a preset rhythm and cooperate with each other to transfer a single antenna 6 to the material taking device 14;

[0090] The step S12 (i.e., the operation mode of the preset rhythm) includes:

[0091] Step S121: the second branching structure 132 descends to block the antenna 6 from moving forward;

[0092] Step S122: the first branch line structure 131 rises, and the antennas on the conveying track 12 move toward the second branch line structure 132, and one of the antennas 6 enters the interval;

[0093] Step S123: the first branching structure 131 descends and presses on the antennas 6 on its lower side;

[0094] Step S124 : the second branching structure 132 rises, and the antenna located in the interval moves forward and enters the antenna picking device 14 .

[0095] This arrangement realizes the single-piece feeding after the antenna 6 is screened, which is beneficial to the continuous automatic operation of the production line.

[0096] In some optional embodiments, step S2 includes:

[0097] Step S21: the antenna transport device 2 moves to a material taking position;

[0098] Step S22: the antenna transport device 2 grabs the antenna 6 from the antenna picking device 14;

[0099] Step S23: the antenna transport device 2 transports the antenna 6 toward the welding wire winding device 4;

[0100] Step S24 : the antenna picking device 14 moves toward the conveying track 12 .

[0101] The antenna transport device 2 and the antenna material taking device 14 cooperate to take materials, thereby achieving continuous supply of antennas 6 , which is helpful for the automated operation of the production line.

[0102] As one of the preferred embodiments, the antenna assembly device further includes a correction device 3, and the correction device 3 is used to correct the angle of the antenna 6;

[0103] Step S3 specifically includes:

[0104] Step S31: the antenna transport device 2 transports the antenna 6 to the calibration device 3;

[0105] Step S32: the calibration device 3 calibrates the antenna 6;

[0106] Step S33 : the antenna transport device 2 transports the calibrated antenna 6 to the welding wire winding device 4 .

[0107] It should be understood that when the antenna transport device 2 grabs the antenna 6, since the vertical section 62 is cylindrical, a small rotation is likely to occur at the moment of grabbing. Although it does not affect the clamping, it will cause the angle of the lower end 66 to be non-parallel with the wire pressing platform 4131, affecting the winding of the welding wire 9, or, after winding the welding wire 9, the vertical angle of the lower end 66 and the antenna pin on the anode plate does not match, affecting the assembly of the antenna 6. The setting of the correction device 3 can ensure that the angle can be fully adapted during the process of winding the welding wire 9 around the antenna 6 and the process of matching the antenna 6 with the anode plate, ensuring the smooth progress of automated production. It should be understood that when the antenna transport device 2 grabs the antenna 6, transports the grabbed antenna 6 to the correction device 3, and transports the corrected antenna 6 to the welding wire winding device 4, it needs to rotate multiple times to adapt to the corresponding assembly angle. These rotations to achieve the corresponding assembly angle belong to the common technology in component transportation equipment and are not limited here.

[0108] As one of the preferred embodiments, the correction device 3 includes a correction chuck assembly 33, and the correction chuck assembly 33 includes two chucks arranged opposite to each other, and the two chucks move relative to each other to move closer to close or farther to release;

[0109] Step S32 includes:

[0110] Step S321: the antenna transport device 2 rotates the antenna 6 so that the upper end 61 of the antenna 6 enters between two clamps;

[0111] Step S322: the two clamps are closed to clamp the upper end 61;

[0112] Step S323: the antenna transport device 2 releases the antenna 6;

[0113] Step S324: the antenna transport device 2 grabs the antenna 6;

[0114] Step S325: The two chucks are released.

[0115] It should be understood that when the antenna transport device 2 grabs the antenna 6 from the antenna picking device 14, due to factors such as errors in fitting, rotation may easily occur during fitting, which may easily cause mismatch between the lower end 66 of the antenna 6 and the welding wire winding device 4. Through the operation of step S32, two chucks are used to clamp the upper end 61 to reposition the antenna 6. In order to prevent the antenna 6 from falling, the antenna transport device 2 always keeps the antenna 6 clamped before the two chucks clamp the upper end 61. After the two chucks clamp the upper end 61, the antenna transport device 2 first releases the antenna 6 and then re-clamps it, so that the re-clamped antenna 6 meets the wire winding requirements of the welding wire winding device 4, thereby ensuring the smooth operation of the equipment.

[0116] It should be noted that the welding wire winding device 4 includes a wire supply device 42 and a wire winding device, the wire supply device 42 is used to supply welding wire 9, and the antenna transportation device 2 transports the antenna 6 to the wire winding device to wind the welding wire 9 around the lower part of the antenna 6;

[0117] Step S4 specifically includes:

[0118] Step S41: the wire-supporting extruding portion 411 rotates to abut against the wire-passing portion 413;

[0119] Step S42: the wire feeding device 42 supplies the welding wire 9, so that the welding wire 9 of a preset length passes through the wire passing portion 413 and enters the wire supporting and extruding portion 411;

[0120] Step S43: the wire-supporting extruding portion 411 rotates away from the wire-passing portion 413;

[0121] Step S44: the wire pressing and cutting unit 412 is pressed down to the wire pressing platform 4131 to cut the welding wire 9 and extrude and deform the welding wire 9;

[0122] Step S45: the wire pressing and cutting unit 412 is raised and away from the wire pressing platform 4131;

[0123] Step S46: the antenna transport device 2 places the lower part of the antenna 6 on the extruded and deformed welding wire 9;

[0124] Step S47: the wire-supporting extruding portion 411 rotates close to the wire-passing portion 413 and abuts against the wire-passing portion 413. During this process, the wire-supporting extruding portion 411 squeezes and wraps the deformed welding wire 9 around the lower portion of the antenna 6.

[0125] Step S48: the wire-supporting extruding portion 411 rotates away from the wire-passing portion 413;

[0126] Step S49: the antenna transport device 2 transports the antenna 6 wound with the welding wire 9 away from the welding wire winding device 4.

[0127] It should be understood that during the entire winding process of the welding wire 9, the antenna transport device 2 always clamps the antenna 6 to prevent the antenna 6 from falling. After the wire pressing and cutting portion 412 is pressed down, under the joint action of the wire passing portion 413, the wire pressing platform 4131 and the wire support extrusion portion 411, the cut welding wire 9 forms a U-shaped or ""-shaped structure. After the antenna 6 is in place, the wire support extrusion portion 411 moves toward the wire passing portion 413, and the welding wire 9 closely attached to the wire support extrusion portion 411 is squeezed and wound around the lower part of the antenna 6, completing the winding of the welding wire 9 on the antenna 6.

[0128] As an embodiment of the present invention, step S5 includes:

[0129] Step S51: the antenna transport device 2 transports the antenna 6 wound with the welding wire 9 to the calibration device 3;

[0130] Step S52: the calibration device 3 calibrates the antenna 6;

[0131] Step S53: the antenna transport device 2 transports the calibrated antenna 6 to the welding platform 5;

[0132] Step S54: the antenna transport device 2 assembles the antenna 6 and the anode plate.

[0133] It should be noted that the specific assembly structure of the antenna 6 and the anode cylinder assembly 7 is a prior art and will not be described in detail here. It should be understood that in the process of winding the welding wire 9 on the antenna 6, due to the squeezing effect of the wire squeezing portion 411, the antenna 6 is prone to deflect at a certain angle, and this deflection will lead to the failure of the subsequent assembly of the antenna 6 and the anode plate. The antenna 6 with the welding wire 9 wound is calibrated again by the calibration device 3 to ensure that the calibrated antenna 6 meets the state requirements during assembly, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the production line.

[0134] Wherein step S52 comprises:

[0135] Step S521: Make the upper end 61 of the antenna 6 enter between two clamps;

[0136] Step S522: the two clamps are closed to clamp the upper end 61;

[0137] Step S523: the antenna transport device 2 releases the antenna 6;

[0138] Step S524: the antenna transport device 2 grabs the antenna 6;

[0139] Step S525: The two chucks are released.

[0140] Through the operation of step S52, the upper end 61 is clamped by two clamps to reposition the antenna 6. In order to prevent the antenna 6 from falling, the antenna transport device 2 always keeps clamping the antenna 6 before the two clamps clamp the upper end 61. After the two clamps clamp the upper end 61, the antenna transport device 2 first releases the antenna 6 and then clamps it again, so that the re-clamped antenna 6 meets the assembly requirements with the anode plate, ensuring the smooth operation of the next process. It should be understood that in this embodiment, the correction device 3 is arranged between the vibration disk 11 and the welding wire winding device 4. During the correction process before and after winding the welding wire 9, the antenna transport device 2 does not need to rotate to adjust the angle. On the one hand, it reduces the adjustment time of multiple rotations, and on the other hand, it simplifies the operation method of the antenna transport device 2, effectively improving the production efficiency of the production line.

[0141] As an embodiment of the present invention, step S6 includes:

[0142] Step S61: the laser welder 8 performs laser welding on the assembly parts of the antenna 6 and the anode plate;

[0143] Step S62: the antenna transport device 2 releases the antenna 6;

[0144] Step S63: sending the welded anode cylinder assembly 7 to the next process.

[0145] Through the above welding process, the antenna 6 and the anode plate can be initially welded and fixed, avoiding the risk of antenna 6 deviation in subsequent processes, and preparing for the subsequent melting welding of welding wire 9, thereby improving the production efficiency of the anode assembly. It should be noted that the welding process of the laser welder 8 can refer to the prior art and is not limited here.

[0146] It should be noted that in the embodiment of the present invention, when the antenna transport device 2 takes materials until the antenna 6 and the anode plate are welded, the antenna transport device 2 releases the antenna 6 only in step S323, step S523, and step S62, and is in a grasping state in the rest of the process. Of course, several more correction steps can also be added, which will affect the production efficiency of the product relative to the present embodiment.

[0147] It should be noted that all the terms used in the present invention to indicate directionality and position, such as "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "front", "back", "vertical", "horizontal", "inner", "outer", "top", "lower", "tail end", "head end", "center", etc., are only used to explain the relative positional relationship and connection status between the components in a certain state, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention, rather than requiring the present invention to be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as limiting the present invention. In addition, the descriptions of "first", "second", etc. in the present invention are only used for descriptive purposes, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features.

[0148] Although the present invention is disclosed as above, the present invention is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention shall be subject to the scope defined by the claims.
