Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the technical field of coupler manufacturing and processing, and particularly to an automatic coupler assembly station. Background Technology
[0002] During the manufacturing process of the coupler, the input and output connectors need to be screwed into the mounting holes of the coupler housing, as follows: Figure 6 The image shown is a real-world example of a worker using a clamp and wrench to tighten the connector and coupler together in the prior art.
[0003] pass Figure 6 As can be seen from the actual picture, the worker needs to first operate the clamp to hold the coupler box on the clamp, and then use a wrench to tighten the connector. This operation method is not only cumbersome, but also labor-intensive for the worker. At the same time, it is not easy for the worker to control the tightening force. Too much force will easily strip the threads; too little force will not be able to tighten it. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide an automatic coupler assembly station to solve the problems of cumbersome steps and difficulty in controlling the force during manual operation in the prior art described in the background.
[0005] To solve the above problems, the present invention provides the following technical solution: an automatic coupler assembly table, comprising a box body fixedly connected to a processing table, the front side wall of the box body having an inlet and outlet; a rotating cover rotatably disposed on the inner side wall of the right end of the box body, the inner wall of the rotating cover being fixedly connected to a limit body; a positioning sleeve fixedly connected to the inner wall of the upper end of the box body; a pressure sensor movably disposed on the inner wall of the left end of the box body; a movable box fixedly connected to the stress surface of the pressure sensor; a rotating plate rotatably disposed on the movable box; a rotating column rotatably penetrating the positioning sleeve; wherein, the rotating column has an arc groove on the side facing the rotating cover, the inner wall of the arc groove having a positioning groove; and a spring, one end fixedly connected to the rotating column and the other end fixedly connected to the rotating plate.
[0006] Preferably, an elastic rubber pad is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the left end of the positioning groove.
[0007] Preferably, a limiting post is fixedly connected to the left side wall of the rotating column, and the limiting post extends into the spring.
[0008] Preferably, a drive motor is fixedly connected inside the movable box, the output end of the drive motor is fixedly connected to the rotating plate, and the rotating plate is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the movable box through bearings.
[0009] Preferably, a gear ring is fixedly fitted on the rotating shaft of the rotating cover, and a torque motor is fixedly connected to the right side wall of the box. The output end of the torque motor is fixedly connected to a gear that meshes with the gear ring.
[0010] The advantages of adopting the above technical solutions are:
[0011] In this application, the rotating column can move and rotate within the positioning sleeve. The connector on one side of the box is inserted into the rotating cover, and then the rotating column moves so that the other side of the box is inserted into the arc groove. At this time, the rotating column moves and rotates 360 degrees. When the box is aligned with the positioning groove, the box will slide into the positioning groove. At this time, the rotating cover will rotate to tighten the connector and the box. Attached Figure Description

[0018] The components include: processing table 10, box body 20, inlet and outlet 30, baffle 31, rotating cover 40, limiting body 41, gear ring 42, gear 43, torque motor 44, rotating column 50, positioning groove 51, arc groove 52, rubber pad 53, positioning sleeve 60, spring 70, rotating plate 71, drive motor 72, moving box 73, limiting column 74, pressure sensor 80, and cylinder 81. Detailed Implementation
[0019] The embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0020] like Figure 1-5In this first embodiment, an automatic coupler assembly station includes a box 20 fixedly connected to a processing table 10, with an inlet and outlet 30 on the front side wall of the box 20; a rotating cover 40 rotatably disposed on the inner side wall of the right end of the box 20, with a limit body 41 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the rotating cover 40; a positioning sleeve 60 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the upper end of the box 20; a pressure sensor 80 movably disposed on the inner wall of the left end of the box 20; a movable box 73 fixedly connected to the stress surface of the pressure sensor 80; a rotating plate 71 rotatably disposed on the movable box 73; a rotating column 50 rotatably penetrating the positioning sleeve 60; wherein, the rotating column 50 has an arc groove 52 on the side facing the rotating cover 40, and the inner wall of the arc groove 52 has a positioning groove 51; and a spring 70, one end of which is fixedly connected to the rotating column 50 and the other end of which is fixedly connected to the rotating plate 71.
[0021] This embodiment is implemented as follows:
[0022] A baffle 31 is slidably provided on the box body of this application, which is used to block the inlet and outlet 30;
[0023] In use, the screw-on connector on the coupler housing extends into the rotating cover 40, causing the limiting body 41 inside the rotating cover 40 to extend into the slot on the outer wall of the connector. Then, the pressure sensor 80 drives the moving box 73 to move, causing the rotating column 50 to move until the coupler housing extends into the arc groove 52. Then, the rotating plate 71 rotates, and the rotating column 50 rotates 360 degrees through the spring 70. At the same time, the rotating column 50 also moves. Due to the presence of the spring 70, the movement of the rotating column 50 will not squeeze or deform the coupler housing. During the rotation of the rotating column 71, the coupler housing will rotate within the arc groove 52. When the positioning groove 51 aligns with the coupler housing, the coupler housing will slide into the positioning groove 51. After the rotating column 50 has finished rotating, the rotating cover 40 will rotate. The rotation of the rotating cover 40 will cause the connector to rotate, thus tightening the connector with the coupler housing.
[0024] Please see Figure 2 In order to protect the left connector of the coupler housing, an elastic rubber pad 53 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the left end of the positioning groove 51. The elastic rubber pad 53 can protect the left connector of the coupler housing.
[0025] Please see Figure 2 , 3 A limiting post 74 is fixedly connected to the left side wall of the rotating post 50. The limiting post 74 extends into the spring 70. The limiting post can prevent the spring from bending and limit the direction of spring deformation.
[0026] Please see Figure 2A drive motor 72 is fixedly connected inside the movable box 73. The output end of the drive motor 72 is fixedly connected to the rotating plate 71. The rotating plate 71 is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the movable box 73 through bearings. The drive motor 72 drives the rotating plate 71 to rotate at the open end of the movable box 73.
[0027] Please see Figure 2 , 3 A cylinder 81 is fixedly connected to the left side wall of the box 20. The cylinder 81 is fixedly connected to the pressure sensor 80, and the pressure sensor 80 can be moved by the cylinder 81.
[0028] Please see Figure 1 , 2 3. A gear ring 42 is fixedly sleeved on the rotating shaft of the rotating cover 40. A torque motor 44 is fixedly connected to the right side wall of the box body 20. A gear 43 that meshes with the gear ring 42 is fixedly connected to the output end of the torque motor 44. The torque motor 44 can drive the gear 43 to rotate, the gear 43 drives the gear ring 42 to rotate, and the gear ring 42 drives the rotating cover 40 to rotate. The torque motor 44 can control the rotation intensity.
[0029] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the inventive concept of the present invention, and these modifications and improvements all fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
