After decades of development, they have evolved from the most primitive manual barber scissors to various electric barber scissors, mainly including curved scissors, curling scissors, thinning scissors, willow leaf scissors, flat scissors, tooth scissors, bangs scissors, etc.

[0003] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 The figure shows a blade assembly of a barber razor, which includes: a blade head 102, a ball bearing 103 mounted on the blade head, and a blade 101 fixed to the blade head. The blade head 102 is generally made of plastic, while the ball bearing 103 and the blade 101 are made of metal. Therefore, the three are often processed separately during processing and then assembled together. At present, the assembly method of the blade assembly is often to use an assembly line, and the workers manually assemble the ball bearing 103 into the corresponding slot of the blade head 102, and then install the blade 101 into the blade head 102. The manual assembly method is not only inefficient, but also easy to miss the ball bearing or install the blade crookedly, which seriously affects the quality of the product.

[0067] The following specifically describes the technical solutions protected by the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0068] As Figure 3 、 Figure 4As shown in the figure, a fully automatic assembly device for a hair clipper blade includes: an indexing plate 2, and a plurality of fixtures 13 are uniformly arranged on the circumferential edge of the indexing plate 2. A tool head feeding station 3, a tool head pressing station 4, a ball feeding station 5, a ball detection station 6, a ball oiling station 7, a blade feeding station 8, a blade oiling station 9, a blade assembly station 10, a blade detection station 11, and a blade discharging station 12 are sequentially arranged at multiple fixtures 13 of the indexing plate 2. Among them, the tool head feeding station 3 is connected to an external vibrating disk, and the vibrating disk is used to provide the tool head 102.

[0069] As Figure 21 shown in the figure, it is a three-dimensional structure schematic diagram of the fixture 13, which includes a lower fixture 131 for carrying the tool head 102 and an upper fixture 132 for carrying the blade 101. Fixture guide rails 133 are arranged on both sides of the lower fixture 131, and matching fixture sliders 134 are arranged on both sides of the upper fixture 132, so that the upper fixture 132 can move back and forth along the fixture guide rails 133. During assembly, by pushing the upper fixture 132, the blade 101 is clamped into the tool head 102 to complete the assembly. Further, in order to facilitate the accuracy of sliding, a fixture guide rod 135 is arranged between the upper fixture 132 and the lower fixture 131.

[0070] As Figure 5 shown in the figure, the tool head feeding station 3 includes: a straight material channel 31 connected to an external vibrating disk, and the vibrating disk provides the tool head 102. The end of the straight material channel 31 far from the vibrating disk is provided with a conveyor belt 33. The tool head enters the conveyor belt 33 through the straight material channel 31. The conveyor belt 33 is connected to the indexing plate 2. A manipulator 35 is arranged above the conveyor belt 33, and a feeding gripper 36 is arranged at the lower end of the manipulator 35 for grasping the tool head at the conveyor belt 33 and placing it into the lower fixture 131 of the indexing plate;

[0071] In order to prevent the inaccurate feeding position of the tool head 102, as Figure 6 shown in the figure, a limiting device is arranged above the straight material channel 31. The limiting device includes: a baffle 321 and a material blocking gripper cylinder 323. The baffle 321 extends to the vibrating disk, and the tool heads with inaccurate feeding positions will be screened out by the baffle 321 and fall back into the vibrating disk. A gripper groove 322 is opened at one end of the baffle 321 close to the conveyor belt 33. One material blocking gripper 324 of the material blocking gripper cylinder 323 can be clamped into the gripper groove 322. Every time a tool head passes through, the material blocking gripper cylinder 323 moves once, and the material blocking gripper 324 blocks the next tool head in the straight material channel 31.

[0072] An upper feeding CCD camera 34 is arranged above the end of the conveyor belt 33 close to the indexing plate 2, which is used to detect whether the position of the tool head fed on the conveyor belt 33 is accurate. If it is inaccurate, it is grasped by the manipulator 35 and put back into the vibrating disk. If it is accurate, it is grasped and placed into the corresponding fixture of the indexing plate 2.

[0073] As shown Figure 7 in the figure, it is the tool head pressing station 4. The tool head pressing station 4 includes: a tool head pressing cylinder 41 arranged above the jig 13, a tool head pressing slider 43 arranged at the end of the piston rod of the tool head pressing cylinder 41, a tool head pressing guide rail 42 matched with the tool head pressing slider 43. A tool head pressing block 45 is arranged below the tool head pressing slider 43. A tool head pressing spring 44 is arranged between the tool head pressing block 45 and the tool head pressing slider 43. A tool head pressing sensor 46 is arranged outside the tool head pressing spring 44. When the tool head is placed in the lower jig at the previous station, the indexing plate 2 rotates, and the jig carrying the tool head enters the tool head pressing station 4. The tool head pressing cylinder 41 drives the tool head pressing slider 43 to press down. The tool head pressing block 45 at its lower end contacts the tool head 102, and continues to press down until the tool head 102 is completely assembled in place with the lower jig 131. In order to prevent over-pressing the tool head 102, a tool head pressing spring 44 is arranged between the tool head pressing block 45 and the tool head pressing slider 43 to play a buffering role. In addition, the tool head pressing sensor 46 can also sense the tool head pressing situation by sensing the distance between the tool head pressing block 45 and the tool head pressing slider 43. If the distance reaches the set value, it means that the tool head is pressed in place, and the tool head pressing cylinder 41 stops pushing, and the tool head pressing block 45 no longer presses down.

[0074] As shown Figure 8 in the figure, it is the ball feeding station 5. The ball feeding station 5 includes: a ball cartridge 51 arranged outside the indexing plate 2, a ball ejector rod 53 arranged below the ball cartridge 51. The ball ejector rod 53 extends into the ball cartridge 51 through a through hole at the position where it passes through the ball cartridge 51. A ball lifting cylinder 52 for driving the ball ejector rod 53 to lift and lower is arranged below the ball ejector rod 53. A ball suction head 54 is arranged at the upper end of the ball ejector rod 53. Multiple balls 103 are loaded into the ball cartridge 51. The ball suction head 54 sucks one ball respectively. The ball lifting cylinder 52 drives the ball ejector rod 53 to rise to facilitate the receiving head 57 to receive the balls.

[0075] The ball feeding station further includes: a receiving head 57 for sucking the balls from the ball suction head 54, a receiving transverse movement module 55 and a receiving vertical movement module 56 for driving the receiving head 57 to move. The receiving head 57 is arranged at the lower end of the receiving vertical movement module 56. The receiving vertical movement module 56 is arranged at the receiving transverse movement module 56 and can move horizontally along with the receiving transverse movement module 56. The receiving head 57 sucks the balls from the ball suction head 54 and places them at the designated positions of the tool heads in the jig to complete the ball feeding.

[0076] As shown Figure 9As shown in the figure, the ball detection station 6 includes a ball CCD camera 61 and a corresponding ball light source 62 disposed above the fixture at the indexing table 2. The ball detection station is used to detect whether the balls are installed to prevent the situation of missing ball installation.

[0077] As Figure 10 shown in the figure, the ball oiling station 7 includes an oil storage tank 73 disposed above the fixture at the indexing table 2. A dotting head 74 corresponding to the position of the ball 103 is provided at the lower end of the oil storage tank 73. The oil storage tank 73 is driven by a ball oiling cylinder 71 and an oiling movable block 72. When the fixture 13 reaches the ball oiling station 7 with the indexing table 2, the ball oiling cylinder 71 drives the ball movable block 7 to descend, and the dotting head 74 contacts the ball 103 to apply lubricating oil to the ball, completing the ball oiling work.

[0078] As Figures 11 - 13 shown in the figure, the blade loading station 8 includes a blade supply mechanism, a blade suction head 810, a picking vertical module 89 for driving the blade suction head 810, and a picking horizontal module 88. The blade suction head 810 is disposed at the lower end of the picking vertical module 89. The picking vertical module 89 is disposed at the picking horizontal module 88 and can move horizontally along the picking horizontal module 88. The blade suction head 810 sucks the blade 101 from the blade supply mechanism and places it into the upper fixture 132 of the indexing table.

[0079] The blade supply mechanism includes loading slides 81 and unloading slides 82 disposed on both sides of a front push cylinder 84. A plurality of stacking modules 83 are provided on the loading slide 81. Two sets of blades 101 are stacked along the stacking rod 831 on each stacking module 83 (in the figure, only the uppermost blade is drawn to prevent the drawing effect from being affected by overcrowded lines). The unloading slide 82 is used to receive the empty stacking modules 83. A side push loading cylinder 85 for pushing the stacking module 83 into the position of the front push cylinder 84 is disposed outside one end of the loading slide 81. The front push cylinder 84 is used to push the stacking module 83 below the blade suction head 810. A rear push cylinder 86 for resetting the stacking module 83 is disposed at the corresponding outer end of the front push cylinder 84. A blanking cylinder 87 for pushing the empty stacking module is disposed at the outer end of the unloading slide 82.

[0080] During feeding, first, multiple sets of stacking modules 83 filled with blades are placed into the feeding slide 81 by a manipulator or manually. A rodless cylinder can be set at the feeding slide 81 to push the stacking modules 83 forward one by one. The outermost side-pushing feeding cylinder 85 pushes the frontmost stacking module and sends it to the front pushing cylinder 84. The front pushing cylinder 84 pushes this stacking module forward, and the stacking module 83 filled with blades is pushed under the blade suction head 810. The blade suction head 810 sucks the blade and places it into the upper fixture 132 at the indexing table. As the blades are sucked, the height of the blades at the stacking module 83 gradually decreases. To facilitate the blade suction head 810 to suck the blades, a top rod 815 is provided below the blade feeding position. The top rod 815 passes through the top rod groove 832 at the stacking module 83 to push the blades inside the stacking module 83 upward. The top rod 815 is fixed to the top rod slider 814, and the top rod slider 814 is driven by the lower top rod motor 812 and top rod screw 813.

[0081] After the blades at a stacking module 83 are completely sucked, the rear pushing cylinder 86 pushes this stacking module 83 backward until it is parallel to the side-pushing feeding cylinder 85. The piston rod of the side-pushing feeding cylinder 85 extends, and the empty stacking module is pushed into the discharging slide 82. To prevent blocking the next stacking module from entering the discharging slide 82, the stacking module 83 here is pushed backward by the discharging cylinder 87. When the set number of empty stacking modules 83 at the discharging slide 2 is reached, all the empty stacking modules here are removed by a manipulator or manually.

[0082] To prevent the position of the blade suction head 810 from not corresponding to the blade, a positioning block 811 for positioning the stacking module 83 is provided at the blade feeding position below the blade suction head 810. After the stacking module 83 is pushed into the feeding position by the front pushing cylinder 84, the card slot of the stacking module 83 itself can be inserted into the positioning block 811 to complete the positioning work.

[0083] Such as Figure 14 Figure 9 is the blade oiling station 9, and the blade oiling station 9 includes: an oiling block 95 for oiling the blade, which is arranged below the fixture 13.
