Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of automatic assembly, and in particular to a semi-automatic small parts assembly machine. Background Art

[0002] In the field of component processing and assembly, currently, small parts with glue dispensed on them are manually held, rotated, inserted downward for assembly, and locked onto the workpiece body.

[0003] However, manually assembling and locking components will result in poor assembly stability and easy glue overflow. In addition, manual operation is difficult for some components with small size. At the same time, mass production also requires multiple operators to work at the same time, which wastes manpower to a certain extent. Summary of the invention

[0004] In view of the above, it is necessary to provide a semi-automatic small parts assembly machine to improve assembly stability, reduce the labor intensity of operators and improve the glue overflow problem of small parts assembly.

[0005] The embodiment of the present application provides a semi-automatic small parts assembly machine, which is used to assemble a first workpiece and a second workpiece that have been glued at a first end and a second end of a workpiece body, respectively, wherein the first end and the second end are respectively located at two opposite ends of the workpiece body, and the semi-automatic small parts assembly machine includes:

[0006] a rack, including a slide assembly;

[0007] An assembly mechanism, comprising a clamping jaw assembly and a rotating assembly, wherein the clamping jaw assembly is slidably connected to the sliding assembly along a first direction, and is used to clamp the first workpiece and the second workpiece and assemble the first workpiece and the second workpiece to the first end and the second end of the workpiece body respectively along the first direction, and the rotating assembly is used to drive the clamping jaw assembly to rotate when the clamping jaw assembly clamps the first workpiece or the second workpiece, so as to lock the first workpiece and the second workpiece to the first end and the second end of the workpiece body respectively;

The negative pressure adsorption assembly is used to adsorb the workpiece body when the clamping assembly clamps the workpiece body. The reversing assembly is fixedly connected to the clamping assembly along the second direction, and is used to drive the workpiece body clamped by the clamping assembly to reverse to the second end of the workpiece body toward the clamping jaw assembly after the first workpiece is locked to the first end of the workpiece body, so that the assembling mechanism drives the second workpiece to assemble the second end of the workpiece body, wherein the first direction is perpendicular to the second direction.

The rotating component drives the jaw assembly to rotate to further lock the first workpiece and the second workpiece to the first end and the second end of the workpiece body respectively. The assembly of the workpieces is completed by mechanical equipment instead of the operator, which improves the assembly stability and reduces the labor intensity of the operator.

[0118] The following is a detailed description of various embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0119] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 , an embodiment of the present application provides a semi-automatic small parts assembly machine 100, including a frame 110, an assembly mechanism 120, and a reversing mechanism 130, which are used to assemble the glued first workpiece 11 and the second workpiece 12 at the first end 13 and the second end 14 of the workpiece body 10, respectively, and the first end 13 and the second end 14 are respectively located at the opposite ends of the workpiece body 10. In this embodiment, the first workpiece 11 and the second workpiece 12 are respectively adapted to the first end 13 and the second end 14 of the workpiece body 10. For example, the shape of the workpiece body 10, the first workpiece 11 and the second workpiece 12 can be a cylinder. In other embodiments, the shapes of the workpiece body 10, the first workpiece 11 and the second workpiece 12 are not limited. Among them, in this embodiment, Figure 1 The Z axis of the three-dimensional coordinate system represents the first direction, the X axis represents the second direction, and the Y axis represents the third direction.

[0120] The frame 110 includes a sliding assembly 111. Figure 1 In order to show the main internal components of the semi-automatic small parts assembly machine 100, the frame 110 is marked with dotted lines to facilitate the perspective presentation.

[0121] The assembly mechanism 120 includes a clamping jaw assembly 121 and a rotating assembly 122. The clamping jaw assembly 121 is slidably connected to the sliding assembly 111 along the first direction Z, and is used to clamp the first workpiece 11 and the second workpiece 12 and assemble the first workpiece 11 and the second workpiece 12 to the first end 13 and the second end 14 of the workpiece body 10 respectively along the first direction Z. The rotating assembly 122 is used to drive the clamping jaw assembly 121 to rotate when the clamping jaw assembly 121 clamps the first workpiece 11 or the second workpiece 12, so as to lock the first workpiece 11 and the second workpiece 12 to the first end 13 and the second end 14 of the workpiece body 10 respectively.

[0122] The reversing mechanism 130 includes a clamping assembly 131, a negative pressure adsorption assembly 132 and a reversing assembly 133. The reversing mechanism 130 and the assembly mechanism 120 are arranged at both ends of the frame 110 along the first direction Z. The clamping assembly 131 is used to clamp the workpiece body 10, so that the assembly mechanism 120 drives the first workpiece 11 and the second workpiece 12 to assemble the workpiece body 10. The negative pressure adsorption assembly 132 is used to adsorb the workpiece body 10 when the clamping assembly 131 clamps the workpiece body 10. The reversing assembly 133 is fixedly connected to the clamping assembly 131 along the second direction X, and is used to drive the workpiece body 10 clamped by the clamping assembly 131 to reverse to the second end 14 of the workpiece body 10 toward the clamping jaw assembly 121 after the first workpiece 11 is locked to the first end 13 of the workpiece body 10, so that the assembly mechanism 120 drives the second workpiece 12 to assemble the second end 14 of the workpiece body 10, wherein the first direction Z is perpendicular to the second direction X.

[0123] In this embodiment, first, the operator manually loads the workpiece body 10 into the clamping assembly 131, and loads the first workpiece 11 into the clamping jaw assembly 121; then, the operator presses the start button, the clamping assembly 131 clamps the workpiece body 10, the rotating assembly 122 drives the clamping jaw assembly 121 to rotate, and the negative pressure adsorption assembly 132 adsorbs the workpiece body 10; secondly, the operator manually presses the assembly mechanism 120, so that the assembly mechanism 120 slides downward along the first direction Z through the sliding assembly 111 to the first end 13 of the workpiece body 10 into which the first workpiece 11 is loaded, at this time, the clamping jaw assembly 121 releases the first workpiece 11, and the rotating assembly 122 drives the clamping jaw assembly 121 to rotate, and the negative pressure adsorption assembly 132 adsorbs the workpiece body 10. Component 122 stops rotating, and negative pressure adsorption component 132 releases workpiece body 10; then, the operator manually pulls up assembly mechanism 120, so that assembly mechanism 120 slides upward along first direction Z to original position through sliding component 111, and reversing component 133 drives workpiece body 10 to reverse. At the same time, the operator manually loads the second workpiece 12 into clamping jaw component 121, and repeats the installation operation of the first workpiece 11 to assemble the second workpiece 12 to the second end 14 of workpiece body 10; finally, clamping component 131 releases workpiece body 10, and the operator can take out assembled workpiece body 10 from clamping component 131.

The assembly of the workpieces is completed by mechanical equipment instead of the operator, which improves the assembly stability and reduces the labor intensity of the operator. At the same time, during the assembly process, the negative pressure adsorption component 132 adsorbs the workpiece body 10, which improves the glue overflow during the assembly process, maximizes the utilization of the glue amount, and improves the assembly effect.
