Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to an automated assembly line, and more particularly to an automated assembly line for high-security seals. Background Technology
[0002] High-security seals are an important component in the logistics industry, primarily used in rail, road, sea, and air transport to lock containers, trucks, tankers, and other transported goods. They prevent loss or tampering of goods during transport or storage due to damage, breakage, or substitution of the seals, thus ensuring timely and safe delivery.
[0003] High-security seals typically consist of a locking rod and a locking sleeve. These components are assembled, welded, or assembled from various parts. The locking sleeve contains a retaining spring and a plug. The production of high-security seals requires multiple processes. Current assembly lines suffer from low production efficiency and a high product defect rate. The main reasons are: 1. During automated assembly, it cannot be guaranteed that all locking sleeves will be upright; 2. During assembly, locking sleeves, retaining springs, and plugs may fall off, affecting product yield; 3. During inspection, the orientation and position of each part are difficult to accurately determine, affecting the inspection results. Therefore, existing technology needs improvement and enhancement. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide an automated assembly line for high-security seals, which can greatly improve production efficiency and effectively reduce product defect rate.
[0005] The technical solution adopted by this invention to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is to provide an automated assembly production line for high-security seals, including a lock sleeve picking mechanism, a snap ring mechanism, an injection mold, a lock sleeve semi-finished product picking mechanism, a disc fixture, a robot gripping mechanism, and a laser marking transfer mechanism. The lock sleeve picking mechanism is used to uprightly deliver the lock sleeve to the snap ring mechanism. The snap ring mechanism is used to push the snap ring and plug into the lock sleeve to form a lock sleeve semi-finished product. The injection mold uses a robot arm to obtain the assembled lock sleeve semi-finished product and perform a rubber coating process. The lock sleeve semi-finished product picking mechanism is used to enclose the iron rod and engage the iron rod anti-rotation buckle, so that the iron rod matches and assembles with the lock sleeve at a predetermined angle to form the lock sleeve finished product. Multiple inspection stations are sequentially set on the disc fixture for inspecting the assembled lock sleeve semi-finished product and the finished lock sleeve, which are then delivered to the laser transfer mechanism by the robot gripping mechanism. The laser transfer mechanism delivers the inspected lock sleeve finished product to a laser marking machine and a laser scanning device to complete the marking and scanning.
[0006] Furthermore, the locking sleeve material handling mechanism includes a locking sleeve fixing sleeve, and a locking sleeve hopper, a locking sleeve vibrating plate, a small lateral movement module and a large lateral movement module are arranged in front of the locking sleeve fixing sleeve.
