[0108] Refer to Figure 1 and Figure 6, the material receiving device 7 includes a material receiving guide rail 71, a feeding guide rail 72, a ninth cylinder 73 and a material receiving box 74; the material receiving box 74 has an open top structure and is located on the side of the ball storage tank 62 away from the second positioning ring 61; the feeding guide rail 72 is inclined and fixedly arranged on the frame 1, one end of the feeding guide rail 72 is above the frame 1, the other end is above the material receiving box 74, and the end above the frame 1 is higher; the length direction of the material receiving guide rail 71 is the same as that of the feeding guide rail 72, and it is slidably connected to the feeding guide rail 72 along its length direction; the ninth cylinder 73 is fixedly arranged below the feeding guide rail 72 and has the same length direction as the feeding guide rail 72, and the piston rod of the ninth cylinder 73 is fixedly connected to the material receiving guide rail 71; the ninth cylinder 73 is used to drive the material receiving guide rail 71 to reciprocate along its length direction on the feeding guide rail 72.

[0109] During operation, when the stop ball 9 is installed, the material receiving guide rail 71 moves towards the direction close to the second positioning ring 61 under the action of the ninth cylinder 73. At this time, the end of the material receiving guide rail 71 away from the material receiving box 74 is located below the second positioning ring 61. The second jaw 55 grabs the installed bearing outer ring 8 from the second positioning ring 61, and then moves the bearing outer ring 8 above the material receiving guide rail 71 under the action of the fifth cylinder 56, and then puts the bearing outer ring 8 into the material receiving guide rail 71. The bearing outer ring 8 rolls from the material receiving guide rail 71 to the feeding guide rail 72, and then rolls into the material receiving box 74 from the feeding guide rail 72 and is collected by the material receiving box 74.

[0110] The implementation principle of the device for automatically installing the stop ball 9 in the embodiment of the present application is as follows: During operation, first place the bearing outer ring 8 to be processed on the feeding plate 21. Under the action of the second motor 22, the feeding plate 21 rotates. At this time, the bearing outer ring 8 on the feeding plate 21 moves to the periphery of the feeding plate 21 and abuts against the baffle 23 under the action of centrifugal force, and continues to enter the feeding area 26 through the feeding port 241 under the action of the feeding plate 21, and then is discharged through the discharge port 232 and enters the transfer plate 31.

[0111] When the outer bearing ring 8 located on the transfer plate 31 moves to the first station 311, the second infrared sensor 32 monitors the position signal and transmits the signal to the second controller 33. The second controller 33 controls the second motor 22 to stop working. The first positioning clamp 371 moves the outer bearing ring 8 located on the first station 311 to the third station 313 under the action of the first cylinder 36. The third infrared sensor 393 detects the direction of the outer bearing ring 8 on the third station 313 and transmits the detection signal to the second controller 33. The second positioning clamp 372 moves the outer bearing ring 8 located on the third station 313 into the clamping plate 394. The second controller 33 judges the direction of the outer bearing ring 8. If the outer bearing ring 8 is in the correct direction, the third positioning clamp 373 directly moves the outer bearing ring 8 from the clamping plate 394 to the second station 312. If the outer bearing ring 8 is in the reverse direction, the tenth cylinder 391 drives the positioning plate 34 to move away from the transfer plate 31, so that the clamping plate 394 can rotate. At this time, the third motor 392 drives the clamping plate 394 to rotate 180 degrees, so that the outer bearing ring 8 becomes in the correct direction. Then, the turned outer bearing ring 8 is moved to the second station 312 by the third positioning clamp 373.

[0112] The first jaw 383 moves vertically downward under the drive of the third cylinder 385 and grabs the outer bearing ring 8 located on the second station 312. After grabbing, the third cylinder 385 drives the first jaw 383 to move vertically upward to reset. At this time, the second cylinder 384 drives the first moving plate 382 to move towards the direction close to the positioning device 4, driving the third jaw to also move towards the direction close to the third positioning device 4. When moving to the corresponding position, the third jaw moves vertically downward again under the drive of the third cylinder 385 and places the outer bearing ring 8 on the first positioning ring 41. At this time, the first infrared sensor 44 detects the position of the positioning hole 81 of the outer bearing ring 8 located on the first positioning ring 41 and sends the detection signal to the first controller 43. The first controller 43 starts the first motor 42 according to this detection signal to drive the first positioning ring 41 to drive the outer bearing ring 8 to rotate to the preset direction for the positioning hole 81 to cooperate with the subsequent device.

[0113] The second jaw 55 moves above the first positioning ring 41 together with the second moving plate 53 and the rotating seat 54 under the action of the fourth cylinder 52. And the second jaw 55 moves vertically downward under the action of the fifth cylinder 56 and clamps the outer ring 8 of the bearing located on the first positioning ring 41. After the clamping is completed, it moves vertically upward to reset under the action of the fifth cylinder 56, and then moves toward the direction close to the feeding device 6 together with the second moving plate 53 and the rotating seat 54 under the action of the fourth cylinder 52. When the outer ring 8 of the bearing moves to the lower left of the feeding device 6, at this time, the fourth motor 57 controls the rotation of the rotating seat 54, thereby driving the second jaw 55 and the fifth cylinder 56 to rotate, so that the outer ring 8 of the bearing is aligned with the corresponding position in the feeding device 6. When the outer ring 8 of the bearing is aligned with the corresponding position, at this time, the fifth cylinder 56 drives the second jaw 55 to move toward the direction close to the feeding device 6, facilitating the second jaw 55 to place the outer ring 8 of the bearing on the second positioning ring 61.

[0114] At this time, the suction rod 67 is located above the ball storage tank 62. The suction rod 67 moves vertically downward under the action of the eighth cylinder 66, sucks the stop ball 9 through the vacuum reverse suction valve 671, and then moves vertically upward to reset under the action of the eighth cylinder 66. Then it moves toward the direction close to the second positioning ring 61 under the action of the sixth cylinder 64. When it moves above the second positioning ring 61, the stop ball 9 is aligned with the positioning hole 81. At this time, the suction rod 67 moves vertically downward under the action of the eighth cylinder 66, places the stop ball 9 on the positioning hole 81, and then moves vertically upward to reset under the action of the eighth cylinder 66. At this time, the positioning rod 68 moves toward the direction close to the second positioning ring 61 under the action of the sixth cylinder 64. When the positioning rod 68 moves above the second positioning ring 61, it is aligned with the positioning hole 81. The positioning rod 68 moves vertically downward under the action of the seventh cylinder 65, and presses the stop ball 9 located on the positioning hole 81 into the inner part of the outer ring 8 of the bearing.

[0115] After the installation of the stop ball 9 is completed, the receiving guide rail 71 moves toward the direction close to the second positioning ring 61 under the action of the ninth cylinder 73. At this time, the end of the receiving guide rail 71 far from the receiving box 74 is located below the second positioning ring 61. The second jaw 55 clamps the installed outer ring 8 of the bearing from the second positioning ring 61, and then moves the outer ring 8 of the bearing above the receiving guide rail 71 under the action of the fifth cylinder 56, and then puts the outer ring 8 of the bearing into the receiving guide rail 71. The outer ring 8 of the bearing rolls from the receiving guide rail 71 to the feeding guide rail 72, and then rolls into the receiving box 74 from the feeding guide rail 72 and is collected by the receiving box 74.
