[0017] The present invention also provides a method for using an assembly auxiliary tool for producing a universal coupling:

[0018] S1. Place the universal coupling to be assembled in the placement box;

[0019] S2. When the universal coupling needs to be transferred to the top for rotation and unloading, the placement box will transfer the universal coupling to the top;

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0034] In order to make the technical means, creative features, purpose and efficacy of the present invention easy to understand, the present invention is further described below in conjunction with specific examples, but the following examples are only preferred embodiments of the present invention, not all. Based on the examples in the implementation manner, other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention. The experimental methods in the following examples, unless otherwise specified, are conventional methods, and the materials, reagents, etc. used in the following examples, unless otherwise specified, can be obtained from commercial channels.

[0035] Example:

[0036] like Figure 1 - Figure 8 As shown, an assembly auxiliary tool for the production of a universal coupling includes a material transmission device body 1, a support frame 2 is fixedly mounted on the material transmission device body 1, a conveyor belt 3 is connected to the support frame 2, a placement box 4 is connected to the conveyor belt 3, a universal coupling is placed in the placement box 4, a buffer discharge structure 5 is fixed to the outer wall of the top end of the support frame 2, a flaring structure 6 is connected to the buffer discharge structure 5, and an adjustment component 7 is connected to the buffer discharge structure 5;

[0037] The buffer discharge structure 5 includes a connecting rod 51 fixed to the outer wall of the material conveying device body 1, a discharge box 52 connected to the right end of the connecting rod 51, a buffer pad 53 glued inside the discharge box 52, and a discharge port 54 opened in the discharge box 52;

[0038] The connecting rod 51 and the discharge box 52 are slidably connected via an adjustment component 7 .

[0039] When the placement box 4 transfers the universal coupling to the top for rotation and unloading, the universal coupling falls onto the buffer pad 53, and the buffer pad 53 is glued and laid around the discharge port 54. The buffer pad 53 is set as a sponge pad. The universal coupling falls onto the buffer pad 53 to prevent impact and wear. The opening of the discharge port 54 is designed in an arc shape. After the universal coupling falls onto the buffer pad 53, it slides into the discharge port 54 and arranges the loading in an orderly manner. Through this design, the universal coupling is buffered by the buffer pad 53 after falling from the placement box 4, thereby reducing loss.

[0040] like Figure 7 As shown, the flaring structure 6 includes a first slide groove 61 provided on the side wall of the discharge box 52, a first slider 62 slidably connected to the first slide groove 61, and a flaring plate 63 fixed on the outer wall of the first slider 62. The flaring structure 6 also includes a movable groove 64 provided in the first slide groove 61, a spring 65 connected in the movable groove 64, a snap block 66 connected to the spring 65, a snap groove 67 provided in the first slider 62, a through hole 68 provided in the inner wall of the flaring plate 63, a second slide groove 69 provided in the through hole 68, a second slider 610 slidably connected to the second slide groove 69, and an extrusion rod 611 fixedly connected to the second slider 610.

[0041] When the universal coupling is large in size, the expansion plate 63 can be inserted into the first slide groove 61 on the outer wall of the discharge box 52 through the first slider 62 and slide downward. After the first slider 62 slides to the position of the locking block 66, the locking block 66 is squeezed to move inward. The locking block 66 squeezes the spring 65 inward to produce deformation. One end of the spring 65 is connected to the inner wall of the movable groove 64, and the other end of the spring 65 is connected to the outer wall of the locking block 66. When the locking block 66 moves to the position of the locking groove 67, the restoring force generated by the elasticity of the spring 65 itself pushes the locking block 66 to restore, and finally engages with the locking groove 67 to form a fixation. The end of the locking block 66 is hemispherical in design, and the opening of the locking groove 67 and the end of the locking block 66 are in a matching arc surface design to ensure that the locking block 66 moves to the locking groove When the flared plate 63 is in position 67, it can slide smoothly into the engaging groove 67 without obstruction. A larger universal coupling can be introduced and buffered through the flared plate 63. The through hole 68 and the engaging groove 67 are at the same horizontal position. The through hole 68 and the engaging groove 67 are connected. When the flared plate 63 needs to be disassembled, it is only necessary to squeeze the extrusion rods 611 on the outer walls on both sides inward. The inner ends of the extrusion rods 611 are glued with rubber pads to ensure that the extrusion rods 611 are squeezed with the engaging block 66 for a long time, causing wear, so that the extrusion rods 611 slide inward in the second slide groove 69 through the second slider 610. During the sliding process, the inner end of the extrusion rod 611 squeezes the engaging block 66 to move until the engaging block 66 is completely separated from the engaging groove 67. At this time, the flared plate 63 can be pulled upward to be removed.

[0042] Preferably, the top side wall of the expansion plate 63 is also provided with a first sliding groove 61, a first slider 62, a movable groove 64, a spring 65 and a locking block 66. If there is a larger universal coupling, it can be expanded on the expansion plate 63 for use.

[0043] like Figure 8 As shown, the adjustment assembly 7 includes a third chute 71 provided on the inner wall of the discharge box 52, a third slider 72 slidably connected to the third chute 71, a threaded groove 73 provided in the third slider 72, and a limiting threaded rod 74 connected to the threaded groove 73 and inserted into the discharge box 52.

[0044] When the expansion structure 6 needs to be used for expansion, the limiting threaded rod 74 is rotated outward to loosen the limiting threaded rod 74 and the threaded groove 73 so that the limiting threaded rod 74 and the threaded groove 73 are rotated outward until the limiting threaded rod 74 is completely removed from the threaded groove 73. At this time, the discharge box 52 slides downward. The third slide groove 71 is symmetrically opened in two groups, and the length of each group of third slide grooves 71 is set to be greater than the height of the expansion plate 63, so that the discharge box 52 slides through the third slide groove 71 and the third slider 72 on the connecting rod 51, and the discharge box 52 is adjusted downward to the same distance as the height of the expansion structure 6. The larger universal coupling can also be introduced into the expansion plate 63 for buffering, reducing collision and friction during the falling process, thereby accelerating the deformation and wear of parts.

[0045] In the present invention, unless otherwise expressly specified or limited, a first feature being "above" or "below" a second feature may include the first and second features being in direct contact, or may include the first and second features not being in direct contact but being in contact via another feature between them. Furthermore, a first feature being "above," "above," and "above" a second feature may include the first feature being directly above or obliquely above the second feature, or may simply mean that the first feature is higher in level than the second feature. A first feature being "below," "below," and "below" a second feature may include the first feature being directly below or obliquely below the second feature, or may simply mean that the first feature is lower in level than the second feature.

[0046] The above shows and describes the basic principles, main features, and advantages of the present invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited by the above-mentioned implementation rules. The above-mentioned implementation rules and description are merely preferred examples of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.
