Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of anchor clamp packaging device technology, and more particularly to an anchor clamp O-ring sleeve device. Background Technology
[0002] Anchor wedges typically consist of a semi-circular left wedge and a right wedge. When sold, they are usually secured in a fixing groove at the larger outer diameter end of the wedge with an O-ring. There are two types of O-rings: oil-resistant rubber O-rings and steel wire elastic locking O-rings. Currently, the O-rings are generally installed manually, which is inefficient and physically demanding for workers.
[0003] Patent application number 201721751893.9 discloses a clamping ring device and a clamping packaging machine, including a turntable, a rotating motor, a clamping feeding mechanism, a material picking ring mechanism, and a material unloading mechanism. At least three ring grooves are evenly arranged along the circumference of the upper surface of the turntable near its outer edge. The feeding mechanism, the material picking ring mechanism, and the unloading mechanism are arranged sequentially along the circumference of the turntable and are respectively arranged corresponding to one of the ring grooves.
[0004] The above scheme, by setting up a turntable and sequentially arranging a clamping feeding mechanism, a material picking ring mechanism, and a material unloading mechanism around the turntable, results in a large device size that occupies a significant amount of production space. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the above-mentioned technical deficiencies and propose an anchor clamp O-ring sleeve device, which solves the technical problem that the existing clamp sleeve device has a large size and occupies a large production space because it sets a turntable and sets the clamp feeding mechanism, the material picking sleeve mechanism and the material unloading mechanism in sequence around the turntable.
[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned technical objectives, the present invention provides an O-ring fitting device for anchor clamps, wherein the anchor clamp includes a left clamp and a right clamp, and the combined surfaces of the left clamp and the right clamp each have an arc-shaped groove, the arc-shaped grooves of the combined left clamp and the right clamp forming the inner hole of the anchor clamp; it includes:
[0007] An electromagnet rod, the outer diameter of which matches the inner diameter of the inner hole, so that it can fit with the inner hole to attract and fix the anchor clamp.
[0008] The O-ring mechanism includes a thrust drive and an elastic sleeve fixedly connected to its output end. The piston movement direction of the thrust drive is aligned with the axial direction of the electromagnet rod and the elastic sleeve. The elastic sleeve has a receiving groove for placing the O-ring at the center of its end face facing the electromagnet rod.
[0009] The left clamping feeding mechanism includes a first vibratory plate and a first track;
[0010] The right clamp feeding mechanism includes a second vibratory plate and a second track; the far ends of the first track and the second track are both connected to the end of the electromagnet rod away from the elastic sleeve.
[0011] Furthermore, both the first track and the second track include a guide rail and a protective baffle. The protective baffle is fixedly disposed on the outside of the guide rail, and a clamp conveying channel is formed between the guide rail and the protective baffle.
[0012] Furthermore, the protective baffle partially surrounds the outside of the guide rail to facilitate observation of the movement of the clamps within the clamp conveying channel.
[0013] Furthermore, the first track and the second track also include a limiting baffle, which is fixedly disposed on the side of the guide rail away from the protective baffle and fixedly connected to the guide rail, and the two sides of the limiting baffle protrude from the top and bottom of the guide rail, respectively.
[0014] Furthermore, the guide rails of the first track and the second track meet at one end near the electromagnet rod, and the limiting baffle is fixedly installed at the intersection of the two guide rails.
[0015] Furthermore, the surface of the guide rail is an arc-shaped surface that matches the arc-shaped groove.
[0016] Furthermore, the ring mechanism also includes an arc-shaped receiving plate, which is fixedly disposed at the bottom of the end face of the elastic sleeve facing the electromagnet rod with its opening facing upward, and the inner diameter of the arc-shaped receiving plate is larger than the inner diameter of the elastic sleeve, so as to form the receiving groove on the end face of the elastic sleeve.
[0017] Furthermore, the anchor clamp O-ring fitting device also includes an O-ring feeding mechanism for providing O-rings to the receiving groove. The O-ring feeding mechanism includes a third vibrating plate and a third track, with the outlet of the third track facing the receiving groove.
[0018] Furthermore, the anchor clamp O-ring sleeve device also includes a first inductive switch and a second inductive switch. The electromagnet rod has a groove, and the first inductive switch and the second inductive switch are both fixedly installed in the groove. The first inductive switch and the second inductive switch are both electrically connected to the thrust drive component.
[0019] The first inductive switch and the second inductive switch are used to sense the information of the left clamp and the right clamp on the electromagnet rod, respectively, and to activate the thrust drive based on the sensed information.
[0020] Furthermore, the groove is formed on the outer surface of the electromagnet rod near the end of the elastic sleeve.
[0021] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention include:
[0022] In the anchor clamp O-ring fitting device, the left clamp feeding mechanism and the right clamp feeding mechanism can respectively transport the left clamp and the right clamp onto the electromagnet rod, so that the left clamp and the right clamp combine on the surface of the electromagnet rod to form the anchor clamp. After the electromagnet rod is energized, it can attract and fix the anchor clamp. When the thrust drive pushes the elastic sleeve with the O-ring toward the electromagnet rod, when the O-ring moves to the fixing groove position on the surface of the anchor clamp, the O-ring can be tightened in the fixing groove, thereby completing the O-ring fitting work. Compared with the prior art of setting a turntable and setting corresponding operating mechanisms along the circumference of the turntable, this solution uses an electromagnet rod instead of a turntable, which can reduce the size of the device and reduce the space occupied.

[0028] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the invention.
[0029] This invention provides an O-ring sleeve device for anchor clamps, wherein the structure of the anchor clamp 100 is as follows: Figure 1As shown, the anchor clamp 100 includes a left clamp 101 and a right clamp 102. The combined surfaces of the left clamp 101 and the right clamp 102 each have an arc-shaped groove. The arc-shaped grooves of the combined left clamp 101 and right clamp 102 form the inner hole 103 of the anchor clamp 100. The structure of the anchor clamp O-ring sleeve device is as follows: Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, it includes an electromagnet rod 1, a collar mechanism 2, a left clamping plate feeding mechanism 3, and a right clamping plate feeding mechanism 4. The outer diameter of the electromagnet rod 1 matches the inner diameter of the inner hole 103 so that it can cooperate with the inner hole 103 to adsorb and fix the anchor clamping plate 100. The collar mechanism 2 includes a thrust drive 21 and an elastic sleeve 22 fixedly connected to its output end. The piston movement direction of the thrust drive 21 is aligned with the axial direction of the electromagnet rod 1 and the elastic sleeve 22. Specifically, the thrust drive 21 can be a cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder, or an electric push rod. The elastic sleeve... A receiving groove 220 for placing an O-ring is opened at the center of the end face of the electromagnet rod 1; the left clamp feeding mechanism 3 includes a first vibrating plate 31 and a first track 32; the right clamp feeding mechanism 4 includes a second vibrating plate 41 and a second track 42; the far ends of the first track 32 and the second track 42 are connected to the end of the electromagnet rod 1 away from the elastic sleeve 22, respectively for feeding the left clamp 101 and the right clamp 102 to the electromagnet rod 1, and during feeding, the small diameter ends of the left clamp 101 and the right clamp 102 face the electromagnet rod 1.
[0030] In the anchor clamp O-ring fitting device, the left clamp feeding mechanism 3 and the right clamp feeding mechanism 4 can respectively transport the left clamp 101 and the right clamp 102 to the electromagnet rod 1, so that the left clamp 101 and the right clamp 102 are combined on the surface of the electromagnet rod 1 to form the anchor clamp 100. After the electromagnet rod 1 is energized, it can attract and fix the anchor clamp 100. When the thrust drive 21 pushes the elastic sleeve 22 with the O-ring toward the electromagnet rod 1, when the O-ring moves to the fixed groove position on the surface of the anchor clamp 100, the O-ring can be clamped in the fixed groove, thereby completing the O-ring fitting work. Compared with the prior art of setting a turntable and setting corresponding operating mechanisms along the circumference of the turntable, this solution uses the electromagnet rod 1 to replace the turntable, which can reduce the size of the device and reduce the space occupation.
[0031] Specifically, in order to prevent the left clamp 101 and right clamp 102, which are conveyed to the surface of the electromagnet rod 1, from continuing to move and thus hindering their combination to form the anchor clamp 100, an elastic protruding ring (not shown in the figure) is fixedly provided on the end surface of the electromagnet rod 1 to prevent the left clamp 101 and right clamp 102 located on its surface from continuing to move.
[0032] like Figure 4 What is shown is Figure 3 In the cross-sectional view of section AA, as a preferred embodiment, both the first track 32 and the second track 42 include a guide rail 321 and a protective baffle 322. The protective baffle 322 is fixedly disposed on the outside of the guide rail 321, and a clamping conveying channel is formed between the guide rail 321 and the protective baffle 322. As a specific embodiment, the surface of the guide rail 321 is an arc-shaped surface that matches the arc-shaped groove.
[0033] It is understood that by setting the protective baffle 322 on the outside of the guide rail 321, a clamping conveying channel is formed between the guide rail 321 and the protective baffle 322, which can prevent the clamping pieces from falling off during the conveying process.
[0034] Please continue to refer to Figure 1 In order to facilitate observation of the conveying of the clips in the clip conveying channel, in a preferred embodiment, the protective baffle 322 is partially enclosed around the outside of the guide rail 321 to facilitate observation of the movement of the clips in the clip conveying channel.
[0035] In order to enable the left clamp 101 and right clamp 102 conveyed to the electromagnet rod 1 to be combined to form the anchor clamp 100, in a preferred embodiment, the first track 32 and the second track 42 further include a limiting baffle 323. The limiting baffle 323 is fixedly disposed on the side of the guide rail 321 away from the protective baffle 322 and is fixedly connected to the guide rail 321. The two sides of the limiting baffle 323 protrude from the top and bottom of the guide rail 321, respectively.
[0036] It is understood that by fixing the limiting baffle 323 on the side of the guide rail 321 away from the protective baffle 322, the limiting baffle 323 can abut against the combined surface of the left clamping piece 101 or the right clamping piece 102 during transportation, thereby limiting the left clamping piece 101 or the right clamping piece 102 so that the left clamping piece 101 and the right clamping piece 102 are always located on the same plane, so that the left clamping piece 101 and the right clamping piece 102 transported to the surface of the electromagnet rod 1 are symmetrically distributed on the left and right sides of the electromagnet rod 1 so as to combine to form the anchor clamping piece 100.
[0037] To facilitate the production and processing of the first track 32 or the second track 42, in a preferred embodiment, the guide rails 321 of the first track 32 and the second track 42 meet at one end near the electromagnet rod 1, and the limiting baffle 323 is fixedly installed at the intersection of the two guide rails 321.
[0038] It is understood that since the surface of the guide rail 321 is an arc-shaped surface that matches the arc-shaped groove, the guide rails 321 of the first track 32 or the second track 42 can form a cylindrical guide rail after they intersect, so that the limiting baffle 323 can be set on the plane where the axis of the cylindrical guide rail is located, which facilitates the processing and manufacturing of the first track 32 or the second track 42.
[0039] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 5 To ensure the reliability of the O-ring placed in the receiving groove 220, in a preferred embodiment, the ring mechanism 2 further includes an arc-shaped receiving plate 23. The arc-shaped receiving plate 23 is fixedly disposed at the bottom of the end face of the elastic sleeve 22 facing the electromagnet rod 1 with its opening facing upward, and the inner diameter of the arc-shaped receiving plate 23 is larger than the inner diameter of the elastic sleeve 22, so as to form the receiving groove 220 on the end face of the elastic sleeve 22.
[0040] To facilitate O-ring feeding, in a preferred embodiment, the anchor clamp O-ring fitting device further includes an O-ring feeding mechanism 5 for providing O-rings to the receiving groove 220. The O-ring feeding mechanism 5 includes a third vibrating plate 51 and a third track 52, with the outlet of the third track 52 facing the receiving groove 220. It should be noted that when the O-ring feeding mechanism 5 feeds O-rings into the receiving groove 220, only one O-ring is fed into the receiving groove 220 per feeding action. Since feeding only a single product in a single feeding action is existing technology, the specific structure of the O-ring feeding mechanism 5 is not described in detail in this embodiment.
[0041] Please continue to refer to Figure 5 In order to enable the ring-locking mechanism 2 to operate automatically, in a preferred embodiment, the anchor clamp O-ring locking device further includes a first inductive switch 6 and a second inductive switch 7. A groove 10 is provided on the electromagnet rod 1, and the first inductive switch 6 and the second inductive switch 7 are both fixedly disposed in the groove 10. The first inductive switch 6 and the second inductive switch 7 are both electrically connected to the thrust drive member 21. Specifically, the groove 10 is formed on the outer surface of the electromagnet rod 1 near the end of the elastic sleeve 22.
[0042] The first inductive switch 6 and the second inductive switch 7 are used to sense the information of the left clamp and the right clamp on the electromagnet rod 1, respectively, and to activate the thrust drive 21 based on the sensed information. In a specific embodiment, the first inductive switch 6 and the second inductive switch 7 can be infrared inductive switches or photoelectric inductive switches.
[0043] To facilitate understanding of the present invention, the following is combined with... Figures 1-2 The working principle of this solution will be explained in detail:
[0044] During operation, the first vibratory feeder 31 operates and conveys the left clamping piece 101 to the electromagnet rod 1 via the first track 32, while the second vibratory feeder 41 operates and conveys the right clamping piece 102 to the electromagnet rod 1 via the second track 42. During the conveying of the left and right clamping pieces 101 and 102, the smaller diameter ends of the left and right clamping pieces 101 and 102 always face the electromagnet rod 1. The left and right clamping pieces 101 and 102 conveyed to the electromagnet rod 1 combine on their surfaces to form an anchor clamping piece 100. The third vibratory feeder 51 operates and provides O-rings to the receiving groove 220 via the third track 52.
[0045] When the left clamp 101 and the right clamp 102 move on the surface of the electromagnet rod 1 until their ends abut against the elastic convex ring, the left clamp 101 and the right clamp 102 stop moving. Simultaneously, the first inductive switch 6 and the second inductive switch 7 sense the left clamp information and the right clamp information, respectively. The electromagnet rod 1 is energized to attract and fix the anchor clamp 100. At the same time, the thrust drive 21 is activated to push the elastic sleeve 22 equipped with the O-ring toward the electromagnet rod 1. When the elastic sleeve 22 abuts against the elastic convex ring... When the surface of the small-diameter end of the anchor clamp 100 contacts, both the elastic sleeve 22 and the O-ring are stretched open. As the piston rod of the thrust drive 21 continues to move, the end face of the elastic sleeve 22 pushes the O-ring toward the large-diameter end of the anchor clamp 100. When the O-ring moves to the fixing groove position on the surface of the anchor clamp, the O-ring can be clamped in the fixing groove and stop moving. Then, the piston rod of the thrust drive 21 retracts and drives the elastic sleeve 22 back to the initial position (directly below the outlet of the third track 52). The electromagnet rod 1 is de-energized to cancel the adsorption and fastening effect on the anchor clamp 100, and the anchor clamp 100 with the O-ring can be removed from the surface of the electromagnet rod 1.
[0046] The specific embodiments of the present invention described above do not constitute a limitation on the scope of protection of the present invention. Any other corresponding changes and modifications made in accordance with the technical concept of the present invention should be included within the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
