[0002] As the foundation of the automotive industry, auto parts are a necessary factor to support the industry's continued healthy development. In particular, the current vigorous and dynamic independent development and innovation in the automotive industry requires a strong parts system for support. The independent brands and technological innovation of complete vehicles need parts as a foundation, and the independent innovation of parts, in turn, has a strong driving force for the development of the complete vehicle industry. They are mutually influential and interactive.

[0003] Rigid pipes are also a type of automotive part. They are common accessories used to connect various components in a car. Rigid pipes require rubber sleeves to be installed during use. Currently, the installation of rubber sleeves relies on manual labor, which cannot guarantee that each rubber sleeve is installed in place, and manual assembly is too physically demanding. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides an automatic insertion and installation device for a rubber sleeve and a rigid tube, comprising a machine base, a first positioning component, a second positioning component, and a positioning mechanism. The machine base has a working surface, on which the first positioning component, the second positioning component, and the positioning mechanism are all disposed. The positioning mechanism includes a moving component, a mounting plate, an insertion component, and an adsorption component. The moving component is arranged along the length of the working surface. The mounting plate is slidably connected to the moving component. The insertion component is disposed on the mounting plate, and the rubber sleeve passes through the insertion component. At least one adsorption component is disposed on each side of the insertion component, and the adsorption component is used to adsorb the surface of the rubber sleeve. The first positioning component and the second positioning component are disposed on one side of the moving component. One end of the rigid tube is connected to the first positioning component, and the other end of the rigid tube is connected to the second positioning component.

[0033] Please see Figure 1-4 This invention provides an automatic insertion and installation device for a rubber sleeve and a rigid tube, including a machine base 1, a first positioning component 2, a second positioning component 3, and a positioning mechanism 5. The machine base 1 has a working surface, on which the first positioning component 2, the second positioning component 3, and the positioning mechanism 5 are all disposed. The positioning mechanism 5 includes a moving component 51, a mounting plate 52, an insertion component 53, and an adsorption component 54. The moving component 51 is arranged along the length of the working surface. The mounting plate 52 is slidably connected to the moving component 51. The insertion component 53 is disposed on the mounting plate 52, and the rubber sleeve passes through the insertion component 53. At least one adsorption component 54 is disposed on each side of the insertion component 53, and the adsorption component 54 is used to adsorb the surface of the rubber sleeve. The first positioning component 2 and the second positioning component 3 are disposed on one side of the moving component 51. One end of the rigid tube is connected to the first positioning component 2, and the other end of the rigid tube is connected to the second positioning component 3.

[0034] The adsorption components 54 on both sides of the insertion component 53 are symmetrically arranged. Each adsorption component 54 includes a first cylinder 541 and a vacuum suction plate 542, with the vacuum suction plate 542 connected to the first cylinder 541. The vacuum suction plates on both sides of the rubber sleeve can hold the rubber sleeve in place, and then the first cylinder pulls it outward, increasing the diameter of the rubber sleeve, thus facilitating the insertion of the rigid tube into the rubber sleeve.

[0035] A first connecting plate 543 is provided on the piston rod of the first cylinder 541, and a plurality of elastic components 4 are provided between the first connecting plate 543 and the vacuum suction plate 542. The elastic components can provide deformation space to facilitate the insertion of the rigid tube into the rubber sleeve.

[0036] The elastic component 4 is a spring. Alternatively, the elastic component can be a rubber block.

[0037] Both the first connecting plate 543 and the vacuum suction plate 542 are arc-shaped plates. This increases the adsorption area between the vacuum suction plate and the tube, making the adsorption of the tube more stable.

[0038] The insertion component 53 includes a second cylinder 531, a second connecting plate 532, and a sleeve rod 533. The second connecting plate 532 is connected to the second cylinder 531, and the sleeve rod 533 is detachably connected to the second connecting plate 532. The rubber sleeve is fitted onto the sleeve rod 533. The rubber sleeve can be fitted onto the sleeve rod, and during assembly, the sleeve rod moves via the second cylinder, preventing the rubber sleeve from bending and ensuring it remains straight.

[0039] The moving component 51 is a linear module.

[0040] The first positioning component 2 and the second positioning component 3 have the same structure. The first positioning component 2 includes a support cylinder 21 and a clamping cylinder 22. A support plate is provided on the support cylinder 21, and the clamping cylinder 22 is located on one side of the support cylinder 21, with a clamping plate provided on it. When a rigid tube is placed on the support plate, the clamping cylinder drives the clamping plate to move, causing the clamping plate to press against the rigid tube, thereby fixing the rigid tube and preventing it from moving.

[0041] Working principle: When assembling the rubber sleeve and the rigid tube, the rigid tube is placed on the first positioning component 2 and the second positioning component 3. The position of the support cylinder 21 is adjusted, and the pressing cylinder 22 moves downward so that the pressing plate presses down on the rigid tube. The rubber tube is sleeved on the sleeve rod, which can be replaced according to the size of the rubber tube. The first cylinder 541 is started and moves towards the rubber tube so that the vacuum suction plate is close to the surface of the rubber tube. The vacuum suction plate draws a vacuum and sucks up the rubber tube. The first cylinder 541 moves backward so that the rubber tube opens up to a diameter larger than its natural diameter. Then, the linear module drives the mounting plate to move so that the rigid tube is inserted into the rubber tube. At the same time, the second cylinder 531 drives the sleeve rod 533 to move backward until the sleeve rod moves out of the rubber tube. At this time, the rubber tube is completely sleeved on the rigid tube. Finally, the vacuum is turned off so that the rubber tube is separated from the vacuum suction plate, completing the assembly of the rubber sleeve and the rigid tube. Therefore, the present invention, through the sleeve rod, allows the rubber sleeve to be fitted onto the sleeve rod. During assembly, the sleeve rod is moved by the second cylinder, which can prevent the rubber sleeve from bending and ensure that the rubber sleeve is in a straight state, thereby improving assembly efficiency. Through the vacuum suction plates on both sides of the rubber sleeve, the vacuum suction plates can suck up the rubber sleeve, and then pull it outward by the first cylinder, making the diameter of the rubber sleeve larger, thereby facilitating the insertion of the rigid tube into the rubber sleeve, which can further improve assembly efficiency.

[0042] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in the present invention, based on the technical solution and inventive concept of the present invention, should be covered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
