[0044] In order to make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects achieved by the present invention easy to understand, the present invention is further explained below in conjunction with specific implementation methods.

[0045] like Fig.13 As shown in the figure, b is the shape of the data cable connector metal shell applicable to the present application, which is stamped from a single metal sheet. Before riveting, the whole is stamped into a U shape. During riveting, the data cable connector is placed in the groove of the U-shaped data cable connector metal shell.

[0046] The specific connection and engagement method between the U-shaped data cable connector metal shell and the data cable is a conventional design in the art and will not be elaborated in detail in this application.

[0047] Embodiment 1

[0048] like Figure 1 As shown, the data cable riveting device disclosed in the present application includes a shell conveying device 1 for storing and conveying the metal shells of the data cable connector to be riveted one by one, a riveting assembly 2 arranged at the discharge port of the shell conveying device 1 and used to receive the single data cable connector metal shell conveyed by the shell conveying device 1 to realize the riveting of the data cable connector metal shell, a plurality of data cable fixing boxes 3 for fixing the data cable body and feeding the terminal part of the data cable body into the riveting assembly 2 for the riveting assembly 2 to rivet the data cable body and the metal shell, a fixing box conveying assembly 4 arranged on the side of the riveting assembly 2 away from the shell conveying device 1 for conveying the plurality of data cable fixing boxes 3 in the horizontal direction and aligning the data cable fixing boxes 3 with the riveting assembly 2 in the longitudinal direction to realize automatic riveting, and a base frame 5 arranged at the bottom of the riveting assembly 2 and the shell conveying device 1 as a bearing component for supporting the shell conveying device 1 and the riveting assembly 2.

[0049] Specifically, Figure 2-3 As shown, the shell conveying device 1 includes a mounting frame 11 arranged on the top of the base frame 5, and slide rails 14 are arranged on both sides of the table of the mounting frame 11, and a pushing block 15 is arranged between the two slide rails 14, and a storage piece 17 is arranged on the side of the table of the mounting frame 11 close to the riveting assembly 2. Before riveting, the staff will put the data cable connector metal shells pre-punched into a U shape into the storage piece 17 one by one, and a base 18 is fixed on the side of the table of the mounting frame 11 away from the storage piece 17, and a hydraulic cylinder 16 for controlling the pushing block 15 to slide between the two slide rails 14 is arranged on the side of the base 18 away from the pushing block 15, and an inclined track 12 is arranged on the side of the mounting frame 11 close to the riveting assembly 2, and a support column 13 fixedly connected to the mounting frame 11 and used to support the inclined track 12 is arranged at the bottom of the inclined track 12;

[0050] It can be seen that by starting the hydraulic cylinder 16, the push block 15 can be controlled to slide between the two slide rails 14, thereby pushing out the multiple data cable connector metal shells stored in the storage member 17, and entering the slide groove on the upper end surface of the inclined track 12 to slide down, so that it can enter the riveting assembly 2 for riveting.

[0051] Further, such as Figure 4As shown, the storage member 17 includes a vertical cylinder 171 and brackets 172 arranged on both sides of the storage member 17, and the vertical cylinder 171 is fixed to the table of the mounting frame 11 through the brackets 172, and the vertical cylinder 171 is used to store a plurality of metal shells of data cable connectors to be riveted; in the vertical cylinder 171, a plurality of metal shells of data cable connectors to be riveted are stacked up and down one by one in sequence, and under the action of gravity, the hydraulic cylinder 16 drives the pushing block 15 to push out the metal shells of the data cable connector one by one.

[0052] It should be particularly noted that, in the present embodiment, the height of the pushing block 15, the distance between the lower end surface of the vertical cylinder 171 and the upper end surface of the mounting frame 11, and the vertical height of the metal shell of the data cable connector to be riveted are all equal, so as to ensure that when the pushing block 15 moves to the bottom of the vertical cylinder 171, the upper end surface of the pushing block 15 can be in close contact with the lower end surface of the storage member 17, and when the metal shell of the data cable connector is pushed out, the pushing block 15 can be used to replace the lowest metal shell of the data cable connector to support the multiple metal shells of the data cable connector in the vertical cylinder 171, and when the pushing block 15 retracts, the metal shell of the data cable connector in the vertical cylinder 171 falls, so that the metal shells of the data cable connector can be pushed out one by one.

[0053] In addition, the size of the slide groove of the inclined track 12 matches the size of the metal shell of the data cable connector to be riveted, which can ensure that the metal shell of the data cable connector slides stably in the slide groove of the inclined track 12 without deviation.

[0054] Embodiment 2

[0055] This embodiment proposes a further technical solution of the riveting assembly 2 based on the first embodiment. For details, please refer to Figure 5-6 :

[0056] The riveting assembly 2 includes a fixing seat 20 fixed to the top of the base frame 5, two fixing blocks 28 fixed to the top of the base frame 5, a sliding rod 29 rotatably connected between the two fixing blocks 28, and a riveting die 22 for riveting provided in the middle of the two fixing blocks 28. A servo motor 21 is provided on the side of the fixing seat 20 away from the riveting die 22. A screw 24 is provided at the output end of the servo motor 21, and the screw 24 is rotatably connected to the fixing seat 20. A screw 25 is rotatably installed between the two fixing blocks 28. The appearance of the screw 25 is Opposite threads are arranged on both sides of the surface, the screw rod 1 24 is perpendicular to the screw rod 25 and drives the screw rod 25 to rotate through the bevel gear set, a limiting guide plate 23 is arranged between the fixing seat 20 and the riveting die 22, and a filling support assembly 27 is arranged in the middle of the limiting guide plate 23, and the filling support assembly 27 can ensure that the metal shell of the data line connector will not be deformed unnecessarily during the riveting process, and a sliding rod 29 is arranged between the riveting die 22 and the two fixing blocks 28, and a riveting mechanism 26 is arranged on both sides of the riveting die 22 through the sliding rod 29 and the screw rod 25;

[0057] It can be seen from this that by starting the servo motor 21, it can drive the screw 24 to rotate, and drive the screw 25 to rotate through the gear transmission. Since the threads on the outer surface of the screw 25 have opposite directions, the two riveting mechanisms 26 can be controlled by the forward and reverse rotation of the servo motor 21 to approach or move away from each other. When the two riveting mechanisms 26 are close to each other, riveting can be carried out. After the riveting is completed, the two riveting mechanisms 26 can be separated to facilitate the removal of the riveted data cable.

[0058] Furthermore, the riveting mechanism 26 includes a horizontal plate 261, and a vertical plate 262 perpendicular to the horizontal plate 261 is fixed at the bottom of the horizontal plate 261. The vertical plate 262 is threadedly connected to the outer surface of the screw rod 25, and the vertical plate 262 is slidably installed on the outer surface of the slide rod 29. Therefore, when the screw rod 25 rotates, the two riveting mechanisms 26 can be brought closer to or farther away from each other through the screw principle. In this process, the slide rod 29 plays a limiting role. Fixed arms 263 are provided at both ends of the horizontal plate 261, and a riveting roller 264 is provided between the two fixed arms 263. When the two riveting mechanisms 26 are close to each other, the metal shell of the data cable connector is riveted by the riveting roller 264.

[0059] In order to ensure the riveting efficiency and protect the surface of the metal shell of the data cable connector during the riveting process, Figure 7As shown, the riveting roller 264 includes a metal outer cylinder 2642, a central shaft 2644 arranged at the axis of the metal outer cylinder 2642, and a silicone layer 2641 wrapped around the outer surface of the metal outer cylinder 2642. Side pieces 2643 are fixed at both ends of the central shaft 2644, and the side pieces 2643 are rotatably connected to two fixed arms 263 respectively. The side pieces 2643 and the metal outer cylinder 2642 do not contact each other. A plurality of coil springs 2645 are evenly distributed between the outer surface of the central shaft 2644 and the inner wall of the metal outer cylinder 2642.

[0060] Therefore, during the riveting process, the fixed arm 263 can rotate relative to the side plate 2643, so that the entire riveting roller 264 rotates, reducing damage to the metal shell of the data cable connector during riveting. At the same time, the silicone layer 2641 and the multiple annular array of coil springs 2645 can further provide a buffering effect to protect the outer surface of the metal shell of the data cable connector.

[0061] In the embodiment, the riveting die 22 is used to temporarily place the metal shell of the data line connector to be riveted, such as Figure 8 As shown, the riveting die 22 includes two supports 223 fixed to the top of the base frame 5, and the tops of the two supports 223 are jointly provided with a riveting platform 221, and the middle of the upper end of the riveting platform 221 is provided with a placement groove 225 for receiving the metal shell of the data cable connector, and the tops of both sides of the riveting platform 221 are provided with baffles 222, and the side wall of the placement groove 225 away from the shell conveying device 1 is fixed with a baffle bar 224;

[0062] Among them, the placement groove 225 is directly opposite to the sliding groove on the inclined track 12. The metal shell of the data cable connector can fall into the placement groove 225 after sliding down the inclined track 12. During the sliding process, the baffle 222 is used to prevent the metal shell of the data cable connector from sliding off the side, and the baffle 222 will not block the riveting roller 264. In addition, in this embodiment, a rubber pad is provided on the side of the baffle 224 close to the baffle 222, and the baffle 224 and the rubber pad can ensure that the metal shell of the data cable connector is always close to the baffle 224 after entering the placement groove 225.

[0063] In addition, the filling support assembly 27 includes a center plate 272, and the center plate 272 is slidably installed in the slide groove in the middle of the limiting guide plate 23, the lower part of the center plate 272 is threadedly connected to the outer surface of the screw 24, and the end of the center plate 272 close to the riveting die 22 is provided with a sleeve 271, and the sleeve 271 is provided with a spring and a push rod 273 slidably connected to the inner cavity of the center plate 272, and the end of the push rod 273 away from the sleeve 271 is provided with a filling plate 274;

[0064] It can be seen from this that when the servo motor 21 is started, the screw principle can be used to move the center plate 272 to one side of the riveting mold 22. When the metal shell of the data cable connector slides into the placement groove 225, the filling plate 274 can be extended into the inner side of the metal shell of the data cable connector and made close to the placement groove 225. In this process, the spring in the sleeve 271 is used to have a buffering effect and provide a certain margin to ensure that the filling plate 274 is always close to the baffle 224.

[0065] Embodiment 3

[0066] It can be seen from the contents of Example 1 and Example 2 that after the metal shell of the data cable connector falls onto the riveting mold 22, the data cable fixing box 3 needs to place the data cable connector part into the metal shell of the data cable connector on the riveting mold 22. Therefore, this embodiment further improves the data cable fixing box 3 and the fixing box conveying assembly 4 on the basis of Example 1 and Example 2.

[0067] Specifically, Fig. 9 As shown, the data cable fixing box 3 includes a box body 31 and a box cover 32 arranged on the top of the box body 31, the upper four corners of the box body 31 are provided with limiting holes 33, the bottom four corners of the box cover 32 are provided with limiting columns 34 used in conjunction with the limiting holes 33, and the ends of the box body 31 and the box cover 32 close to each other are provided with cylindrical grooves 35 for fixing the data cable; the wire part a1 of the data cable is placed into the cylindrical groove 35, and then the box body 31 and the box cover 32 are closed to fix the data cable, and at this time, the data cable connector part a2 needs to be close to the box body 31, and at the same time, the data cable connector part a2 needs to be located above the blocking bar 224.

[0068] However, during actual riveting, the data cable connector part a2 is located at the upper part of the inner cavity of the metal shell of the data cable connector, leaving a certain space below it. Therefore, it cooperates with the filling plate 274 in Example 2 to fill the space to ensure that the metal shell of the data cable connector will not be deformed during riveting.

[0069] like Fig.10 and Fig.12As shown, the fixed box conveying assembly 4 includes a stabilizing frame 41, and a conveyor belt 42 and a servo motor 43 for driving the conveyor belt 42 to rotate are provided on the upper part of the stabilizing frame 41. A plurality of limit strips 421 are evenly distributed on the outer surface of the conveyor belt 42, and the limit strips 421 are fixed with limit grooves 422 on both sides of one end thereof close to the hydraulic cylinder 45. The size between any two adjacent limit strips 421 matches the size of the data line fixed box 3. The data line fixed box 3 can be fixed in the longitudinal direction by the plurality of limit strips 421, so that the data line fixed box 3 can be aligned with the riveting die 22 by the servo motor 43, thereby sending the data line connector into the inner cavity of the metal shell of the data line connector on the riveting die 22.

[0070] Furthermore, in order to facilitate pushing the data line fixing box 3 toward the riveting die 22 before riveting and pulling the data line fixing box 3 back after riveting, a mounting seat 44 is provided at one end of the stabilizing frame 41 away from the riveting assembly 2, and a hydraulic cylinder 2 45 for pushing out and pulling back the data line fixing box 3 is provided at the top of the mounting seat 44, and an extension rod 46 is provided at the output end of the hydraulic cylinder 2 45, and a circular push plate 47 is provided at one end of the extension rod 46 away from the hydraulic cylinder 2 45, and two symmetrically provided at the lower part of one end of the box body 31 close to the fixed box conveying assembly 4 A clamping member 36, the clamping member 36 comprises a fixing frame 361 fixedly connected to the box body 31 and a sliding plate 364 that can slide relative to the fixing frame 361, the fixing frame 361 is provided with a mounting groove 362 adapted to the sliding plate 364, and a buffer spring 363 that is always in a compressed state is provided in the mounting groove 362, a blocking piece 365 is provided on a side of the sliding plate 364 close to the cylindrical groove 35, and an end surface of the blocking piece 365 close to the box body 31 and an end surface away from the box body 31 are both provided as inclined surfaces close to each other;

[0071] Therefore, if Fig.11 As shown, when the hydraulic cylinder 2 45 is working, it can push the extension rod 46 and the circular push plate 47 to move, so that the circular push plate 47 is close to the inclined surface of the two baffles 365 away from the box body 31, thereby pushing the data cable fixing box 3 until the data cable fixing box 3 is against the riveting mold 22, and then the hydraulic cylinder 2 45 continues to push out, so that the buffer spring 363 contracts, and the baffle 365 separates to both sides, so that the circular push plate 47 enters the gap between the two baffles 365 and the box body 31. At this time, the hydraulic cylinder 2 45 stops extending. After the riveting is completed, the hydraulic cylinder 2 45 contracts, so that the circular push plate 47 is used to pull back the two baffles 365, and then the data cable fixing box 3 is dragged back until it is blocked by the limiting groove 422, and then the baffle 365 is used to close to the inclined surface of the box body 31 to make the buffer spring 363 contract, and the circular push plate 47 can be pulled out from the gap between the two baffles 365 and the box body 31.

[0072] It should be noted that after the data cable fixing box 3 is dragged back, due to the obstruction of the baffle 224, the data cable and the metal shell of the data cable structure after riveting remain in the riveting mold 22. At this time, it is necessary to manually remove the riveted data cable connector from the riveting mold 22 before dragging the data cable fixing box 3 back.

[0073] It should be noted that, in the present application, the specific control methods and circuit arrangements of hydraulic cylinder 2 45 , servo motor 2 43 , servo motor 1 21 and hydraulic cylinder 1 16 are conventional designs in the prior art and will not be elaborated in detail in the present application.

[0074] In combination with the above-mentioned Embodiment 1, Embodiment 2 and Embodiment 3, it can be known that the specific implementation mode of the present application is as follows:

[0075] Before riveting, the staff first places the metal shell of the data cable to be riveted in the vertical cylinder 171 for storage, prepares a plurality of data cable fixing boxes 3, fixes the data cable with the connector to be riveted through the cylindrical groove 35, and arranges the prepared plurality of data cable fixing boxes 3 between the plurality of limit bars 421 on the conveyor belt 42;

[0076] During riveting, the hydraulic cylinder 16 is started to control the push block 15 to slide between the two slide rails 14, thereby pushing out the multiple data line connector metal shells stored in the storage part 17, and entering the slide groove on the upper end surface of the inclined track 12 to make it slide down and fall into the placement groove 225, and then the servo motor 2 43 is used to control the conveyor belt 42 to rotate, so that one of the data line fixing boxes 3 is aligned with the riveting mold 22, and the hydraulic cylinder 2 45 is started to push the extension rod 46 and the circular push plate 47 to move, so that the circular push plate 47 is close to the inclined surface of the two baffles 365 away from the box body 31, thereby pushing the data line fixing box 3 until the data line fixing box 3 is against the riveting mold 22, and then the hydraulic cylinder 2 45 continues to push out, so that the buffer spring 363 is retracted. The baffles 365 are retracted, and the baffles 365 are separated to both sides, so that the circular push plate 47 enters the gap between the two baffles 365 and the box body 31, and the hydraulic cylinder 24 stops extending. At this time, the data cable connector is located in the inner cavity of the data cable metal shell in the placement groove 225, and then the servo motor 1 21 is started to drive the screw 1 24 to rotate, and the screw 25 is driven to rotate through the gear transmission. Since the threads on the outer surface of the screw 25 are in opposite directions, the two riveting mechanisms 26 can be controlled by the forward and reverse rotation of the servo motor 1 21 to approach or move away from each other. When the two riveting mechanisms 26 are close to each other, riveting can be performed. At the same time, the filling support assembly 27 can ensure that the metal shell of the data cable connector will not undergo unnecessary deformation during the riveting process.

[0077] After the riveting is completed, the hydraulic cylinder 45 contracts, so that the circular push plate 47 pulls back the two baffles 365, and then drags the data cable fixing box 3 back until it is blocked by the limit groove 422, and then the buffer spring 363 is contracted by the inclined surface of the baffle 365 close to the box body 31, so that the circular push plate 47 can be pulled out from the gap between the two baffles 365 and the box body 31;

[0078] Repeat the above process to continuously perform riveting.

[0079] In addition, the data cable riveting device disclosed in the present application can also be used as a part of a data cable assembly device, which helps to improve the overall assembly efficiency of the data cable.

[0080] The above shows and describes the basic principles and main features of the present invention and the advantages of the present invention. It should be understood by those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. The above embodiments and descriptions are only for explaining the principles of the present invention.
