Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of electric push rod assembly, and in particular to an automatic assembly production line and method for an electric push rod. Background Art
[0002] An electric push rod is a power-driven device that converts the rotational motion of a motor into the linear reciprocating motion of a push rod. It can be used as an actuating machine in simple or complex technological processes. During the assembly process of an electric push rod, workers need to first align the keys protruding from the surface of the inner core of the electric push rod with the grooves reserved in the inner cavity of the outer shell of the electric push rod and fully insert the inner core into the outer shell to prevent relative rotation between the installed outer shell and the inner core during operation. Then, the battery cell body is successively fixed inside the housing, and finally, a rear cover is put on the outside of the battery cell.
[0003] Chinese Patent CN 110040464 A discloses an installation structure of an electric push rod for an electric deviation correction device. It includes a centering idler roller group, a centering idler roller bracket, and an electric push rod. The electric push rod is arranged parallel to the centering idler roller group. A square head is provided at the shaft end of the rotating output shaft of the centering idler roller group. A rotating arm is connected to the end of the telescopic rod of the electric push rod. A square hole matching the square head is provided on the rotating arm. The rotating arm is sleeved on the square head of the rotating output shaft through the square hole on it. The telescopic rod of the electric push rod is extended and retracted to drive the rotating arm to rotate the rotating output shaft, thereby controlling the rotation of the centering idler roller group.
[0004] However, the technical solution and the prior art have the following defects:
[0005] 1. Each time the battery cell of the electric push rod is inserted into the housing, the keys reserved outside the battery cell need to be aligned with the inside of the housing. Since the housing is generally opaque, even if it is already aligned when the battery cell is inserted into the housing, a small-angle rotation still occurs during insertion, resulting in misalignment between the keys outside the battery cell and the grooves inside the housing, affecting the installation accuracy.
[0006] 2. When tightening after the battery cell is inserted into the housing, since the middle bolt and the tail bolt outside the battery cell are in a series form along the reserved wire, when the middle bolt is rotated for tightening, the upper bolt will swing repeatedly, causing the wire ends inside the battery cell to loosen, posing a certain safety hazard. Summary of the Invention
[0007] The object of the present invention is to provide an automatic assembly production line for electric push rods in view of the deficiencies of the prior art. Before inserting the inner core into the outer shell, the grooves reserved inside the outer shell and the keys reserved outside the inner core are automatically adjusted and aligned, effectively preventing the situation of inaccurate installation of the inner core, with high installation accuracy, capable of synchronously adjusting multiple groups of inner cores and outer shells at one time, and high installation efficiency.

[0064] Another object of the present invention is to provide a method for assembling an electric push rod using an automatic assembly production line for electric push rods in view of the deficiencies of the prior art, including the following steps:
[0065] Step 1, housing placement process: Place the housing on the upper part of the support seat in sequence, making the housing placed vertically;
[0066] Step 2, inner groove detection process: The support platform synchronously drives the upper lifting platform and the lower lifting platform to move to the position between the inner core and the outer shell, and synchronously rotates to adjust the groove inside the outer shell and the key on the outer side of the inner core to be vertically aligned, and then the support platform is reset.
[0067] Step 3, inner core insertion process: The middle bolt storage tray moves downward along the lifting adjustment rail to send the inner core into the outer shell.
[0068] Step 4, middle bolt tightening process: After the inner core is completely inserted into the outer shell, rotate the middle bolt so that the middle bolt tightly fastens the inner core and the outer shell as a whole; Step 5, tail bolt tightening process: Push the upper bolt storage tray downward so that the upper bolt abuts against the tail port of the shell to be closed, and rotate the tail screw to close the shell and the inner core as a whole;
[0069] Step 6, discharging process, rotate the adjustment mechanism so that the two pre-tightening plates are completely separated, and the electric push rod after assembly falls off along the support seat.
[0070] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:
[0071] (1) In the present invention, the turbine drives the central control frame to rotate, and the central control frame drives the key detection rod to rotate along the inner core through the upper lifting platform. When the key detection rod rotates one circle along key a at the initial stage and touches key a again, stop rotating the worm. At this time, the detection work of one cycle is completed, and the corresponding key slot b of the outer shell is exactly below key a. The specific working principle is as follows, so as to achieve automatic adjustment and alignment of the reserved groove inside the outer shell and the reserved key outside the inner core, effectively preventing inaccurate installation of the inner core.
[0072] (2) In the present invention, the inclined part gradually pushes the detection block to compress the locking spring and move along the second guide groove under the resistance of the upper mouth of the outer shell. After the detection block enters the inner part of the outer shell, it always abuts against the inner edge of the outer shell under the action of the locking spring. When the lower lifting platform rotates as a whole along the inside of the outer shell, it contacts the inside of the outer shell through the guide beads. When the detection block passes through the key slot b, the locking spring on the side of the detection block pushes the detection block into the key slot b. During the subsequent rotation of the lower lifting platform, the outer shell will rotate together with the lower lifting platform until one cycle of rotation work is completed, so as to achieve the ability to record and track the key slot b in time when encountering the key slot b, further improving the detection accuracy and installation accuracy.
[0073] (3) The present invention pushes the upper bolt storage tray downward, and the upper bolt storage tray drives the upper bolt to move downward and gradually compresses the lifting spring until the propulsion groove in the upper bolt storage tray is sleeved on the outside of the adjustment pin. At this time, the upper bolt and the closed opening of the shell are at the same horizontal height, and the limit block is gradually inserted into the propulsion groove and drives the guide rod to compress the third return spring along the second retreat groove, so that the upper bolt passes through the upper bolt storage tray, thereby achieving the effect of layered installation of the middle bolt and the tail bolt, ensuring that the two groups of bolts do not interfere with each other during the installation process, and ensuring safe use.
[0074] (4) The present invention switches the original high-raised plate against the side of the push plate to a low-raised plate against the side of the push plate by rotating the adjustment shaft. At this time, the pre-tightening plate is separated from the shell and completely enters the first retreat groove. The assembled electric push rod is separated from the support seat and completes the automatic unloading work, thereby achieving the effect of automatic unloading.
[0075] In summary, the present invention has the advantages of high installation precision and high installation efficiency. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0127] Further, as shown in Figure 8 、 Figure 10 , the upper lifting platform 204 includes:

[0133] Furthermore, as shown in Figure 10 , the lower lifting platform 205 includes:
[0134] A lifting block 2051;
[0135] A second guide groove 20511 is provided inside the lifting block 2051;
[0136] A limiting groove 20512 is provided above the second guide groove 20511 and inside the lifting block 2051;

[0140] Among them, as Figure 10 shown, a locking spring 20514 is connected to the side of the detection block 20513 and inside the second guide groove 20511;
[0141] A stop baffle 205133 is connected to the upper end of the detection block 20513 and inside the limit groove 20512;

[0145] As an improvement, as Figure 11 shown, the inner core installation unit 3 includes: a lifting adjustment rail 301;
[0146] A middle bolt storage tray 302, the rear end of the middle bolt storage tray 302 is slidably inserted inside the lifting adjustment rail 301;
[0147] The upper end of the middle bolt storage tray 302 is connected with an adjustment pin 3021;
[0148] The upper end of the adjustment pin 3021 has an inclined surface;
[0149] Above the middle bolt storage tray 302, an upper bolt storage tray 303 is connected through a guide rod 3031 slidably inserted inside it;
[0150] A limit block 3032 is sleeved outside the guide rod 3031;
[0151] On the outside of the guide rod 3031, a lifting spring 304 is connected below the limit block 3032.
[0152] Furthermore, a second retreat groove 3030 is provided inside the upper bolt storage tray 303;
[0153] A pre-baffle 30301 is slidably inserted inside the second retreat groove 3030;
[0154] Inside the pre-baffle 30301, a propulsion groove 303011 adapted to the upper end of the adjustment pin 3021 is provided.
[0155] A third return spring 30302 is connected to the side of the pre-baffle 30301 and located inside the upper bolt storage tray 303 .
[0156] It should be added that, Figure 2 、 5 As shown, the present invention rotates the adjustment shaft 1043. When the low raised plate 10411 presses against the side of the push plate 1031, the pre-tightening plate 102 is completely located in the first retreat groove 1011. At this time, the entire housing can directly pass through the support seat 101. When the middle raised plate 1041 presses against the side of the push plate 1031, the housing can rotate relative to the pre-tightening plate 102. When the high raised plate 10412 presses against the side of the push plate 1031, the housing is clamped by the pre-tightening plate 102 and cannot rotate.
[0157] It should be noted that, initially, Figures 2 - 5 As shown, the adjusting shaft 1043 is rotated to push the middle raised plate 1041 against the side of the push plate 1031, and the outer shell is placed on the upper part of the support seat 101 and between the pre-tightening plates 102. At the same time, the inner core is placed on the upper part of the middle bolt storage tray 302 and the bolt end of the inner core is supported by the upper bolt storage tray 303. The driving cylinder 201 is started, and the driving cylinder 201 drives the support platform 203 to move to the position between the outer shell and the inner core through the crossbeam 202, so that the upper lifting platform 204 is located at the inner core. The key detection rod 2041 contacts the side wall of the inner core, the lower lifting platform 205 is located directly above the shell, and the adjusting rod 207 is rotated. The adjusting rod 207 pushes the upper lifting platform 204 through the protrusion 2071 to compress the first return spring 2042 and move upward. At the same time, the protrusion 2071 also drives the lifting block 2051 to compress the second return spring 2052 and move downward, so that the lifting block 2051 enters the interior of the shell as a whole, and the height of the key detection rod 2041 exceeds the lowest end of the key a. Figure 7 As shown;
[0158] like Figures 9 - 10 As shown, the worm 206 is rotated, and the worm 206 drives the central control frame 2031 to rotate through the turbine 2032. The central control frame 2031 drives the key detection rod 2041 to rotate along the inner core through the upper lifting platform 204. Until the key detection rod 2041 rotates one circle along the key a at the beginning and contacts the key a again, the worm 206 stops rotating. At this time, one cycle of detection work is completed, and the key groove b corresponding to the outer shell is exactly below the key a. The specific working principle is as follows, thereby achieving automatic adjustment and alignment of the groove reserved inside the outer shell with the key reserved outside the inner core, effectively preventing inaccurate installation of the inner core;
[0159] It should be added that, Figure 10As shown, when the lower lifting table 205 gradually moves downward along the upper opening of the housing, the inclined portion 205131 gradually pushes the detection block 20513 under the resistance of the upper opening of the housing to compress the locking spring 20514 and move along the second guide groove 20511. After the detection block 20513 enters the interior of the housing, it is always pressed against the inner edge of the housing under the action of the locking spring 20514. When the lower lifting table 205 rotates as a whole along the interior of the housing, it contacts the interior of the housing through the guide beads 205132, as Figure 8 shown, when the detection block 20513 passes through the keyway b, the locking spring 20514 on the side of the detection block 20513 pushes the detection block 20513 into the keyway b. During the subsequent rotation of the lower lifting table 205, the housing will rotate together with the lower lifting table 205 until a full cycle of rotational operation contact is achieved, thereby enabling timely recording and tracking of the keyway b when encountering it, further improving the detection accuracy and installation accuracy;
[0160] After the key and the keyway are adjusted and aligned, rotate the adjusting rod 207 to reset the upper lifting table 204 and the lower lifting table 205. Start the driving cylinder 201 to reset the entire keyway correction unit 2, and rotate the adjusting shaft 1043 to make the high convex plate 10412 press against the side of the push plate 1031 to lock the housing;
[0161] Push the middle bolt storage tray 302 downward along the lifting adjustment rail 301 to gradually insert the inner core into the interior of the housing, and then rotate the middle bolt to fasten the housing and the inner core. The internal structures of the middle bolt storage tray 302 and the upper bolt storage tray 303 in the present invention are the same. Therefore, the present invention only describes in detail the process of releasing bolts in the upper bolt storage tray 303, as Figure 11 shown, during the process of releasing the upper bolt for fastening, push the upper bolt storage tray 303 downward. The upper bolt storage tray 303 drives the upper bolt to move downward and gradually compress the lifting spring 304 until the propulsion groove 303011 in the upper bolt storage tray 303 is sleeved outside the adjusting pin 3021. At this time, the upper bolt is at the same horizontal height as the closed opening of the housing, and the limiting block 3022 gradually inserts into the propulsion groove 303011 and drives the guide rod 3031 to compress the third return spring 30302 along the second retraction groove 3030, causing the upper bolt to pass through the upper bolt storage tray 303, thereby achieving the layered installation of the middle bolt and the tail bolt, ensuring that the two groups of bolts do not interfere with each other during the installation process and having a safe use effect.
[0162] Embodiment 2
[0163] As Figure 12As shown in the figure, components that are the same or corresponding to those in the first embodiment are labeled with the corresponding reference numerals in the first embodiment. For the sake of simplicity, only the differences from the first embodiment will be described below. The differences between the second embodiment and the first embodiment are as follows:
[0164] A method for assembling an electric push rod using an automatic assembly production line for electric push rods, comprising the following steps:
[0165] Step 1, housing placement process: Place the housing on the upper part of the support base 101 in sequence, such that the housing is placed vertically.
[0166] Step 2, inner groove detection process: The support platform 203 synchronously drives the upper lifting platform 204 and the lower lifting platform 205 to move to the position between the inner core and the outer shell, and synchronously rotates to adjust the groove inside the outer shell and the key on the outer side of the inner core to be vertically aligned, and then the support platform 203 is reset.
[0167] Step 3, inner core insertion process: The middle bolt storage tray 302 moves downward along the lifting adjustment rail 301 to send the inner core into the outer shell.
[0168] Step 4, middle bolt tightening process: After the inner core is completely inserted into the outer shell, rotate the middle bolt to fasten the inner core and the outer shell as a whole; Step 5, tail bolt tightening process: Push the upper bolt storage tray 303 downward to make the upper bolt reach the tail port of the housing to be closed, and rotate the tail screw to close the housing and the inner core as a whole;
[0169] Step 6, feeding process: Rotate the adjustment mechanism 104 to completely separate the two pre-tightening plates 102, and the assembled electric push rod falls off along the support base 101.
[0170] It should be noted that after the assembly is completed and during the feeding process, as Figures 2 - 5 shown, the adjustment shaft 1043 can be rotated to switch the originally high convex plate 10412 pressing against the side of the push plate 1031 to the low convex plate 10411 pressing against the side of the push plate 1031. At this time, the pre-tightening plate 102 disengages from the outer shell and completely enters the first retraction groove 1011, and the assembled electric push rod disengages from the support base 101 and completes the automatic unloading work, thus achieving the effect of automatic unloading.
[0171] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention shall be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
