DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0050] The technical features of the present invention are further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings so that those skilled in the art can understand them.

[0051] The insulin pen of this patent contains many parts and has a complex structure. It requires three machines to be fully assembled. The assembly machine of this patent is used to assemble the transmission component of the insulin pen. The transmission component includes: a screw rod 18, a piston 19, a positioner 20, a fixed anti-retraction tooth 21, a transmission rod 22, a movable anti-retraction tooth 23, and a spring A24, a total of seven parts.

[0052] The patented automatic assembly machine for the transmission component of the insulin pen includes a machine table 11, a circular turntable 13 is provided on the machine table 11, a plurality of vibration disks for feeding materials to the turntable 13 are provided on the outside of the machine table 11, a plurality of workpiece positions are symmetrically provided on the outside of the turntable 13, and each workpiece position includes a No. 1 position 15, a No. 2 position 16, and a No. 3 position 17 from the inside to the outside in the radial direction. On the machine table 11, a first device 1 for installing a screw rod 18 on the No. 1 position 15, a second device 2 for installing a piston 19 on the top of the screw rod 18 to form an assembly one, a third device 3 for installing a positioner 20 on the No. 2 position 16, and a third device 4 for grabbing the No. 1 position are respectively provided counterclockwise along the outside of the turntable 13. Component one on position 15 is assembled with the locator 20 to form the fourth device 4 of component two, the fixed anti-retraction tooth 21 is placed on the fifth device 5 of position 17, the transmission rod 22 is placed on the third position 17 and assembled with the fixed anti-retraction tooth 21 to form the sixth device 6 of component three, the movable anti-retraction tooth 23 is placed on the third position 17 and assembled with component three to form the seventh device 7 of component four, the spring A24 is placed on the third position 17 and assembled with component four to form the eighth device 8 of component five, the component two on position 2 16 is grabbed and placed on the third position 17 and assembled with component five to form the ninth device 9 of the transmission component, and the tenth device 10 for screening good products and sending out good products.

[0053] A lower fixed plate 12 and an upper fixed plate 14 are provided above the turntable 13 from bottom to top. The lower fixed plate 12 is fixed to the machine platform 11 via an external fixing column 36, and the upper fixed plate 14 is fixed to the machine platform 11 via an internal fixing column 34. The turntable 13, the lower fixed plate 12 and the upper fixed plate 14 are coaxially arranged.

[0054] The turntable 13 is driven counterclockwise by the workstation divider, and a total of six vibrating plates are arranged around the machine table 11 to transport the six workpieces mentioned above except for the spring A. This patented equipment has many parts and complex processes. The parts do not interfere with each other, and the overall design is very difficult. It is not easy for ordinary technicians to think of it. It can greatly improve assembly efficiency and reduce the defect rate.

[0055] The first device 1 includes a first cross bar 101, a first reversible clamp 102 fixed to the inner end of the first cross bar 101, a first outer clamp 103 fixed to the outer end of the first cross bar 101, and a first two-axis manipulator 104 that drives the first cross bar 101 to move left and right or up and down. The first outer clamp 103 grabs the screw rod 18 output from the vibration plate to the first transition position 25. If the screw rod 18 on the first transition position 25 is facing up, the first reversible clamp 102 grabs the screw rod 18 and places it in the No. 1 position 15. If the screw rod 18 on the first transition position 25 is facing up, the first reversible clamp 102 grabs the screw rod 18 and rotates it 180 degrees before placing it in the No. 1 position 15.

[0056] Because the screw rod 18 output from the vibrating plate may face up or down, it is necessary to detect the direction of the screw rod 18 by illuminating it with an optical fiber. The principle is that the light reflected from the front and back sides is different. The optical fiber used for detection is not shown in the figure. The first reversible clamping jaw 102 is driven by a swing cylinder to rotate.

[0057] The first crossbar 101 and all other crossbars are arranged along the radial direction of the turntable 13. Therefore, the inner and outer ends of the crossbars are also relative to the radial direction of the turntable 13, with the inner end closer to the center of the turntable 13 and the outer end farther away from the center of the turntable 13. The clamping claws on the crossbars are driven to move left and right or up and down simultaneously.

[0058] The second device 2 includes a second cross bar 201, a second inner clamping jaw 202 fixed to the inner end of the second cross bar 201, a second outer clamping jaw 203 fixed to the outer end of the second cross bar 201, and a second two-axis manipulator that drives the second cross bar 201 to move left and right or up and down. A lower fixed plate 12 is provided above the turntable 13, and a second positioning claw 204 is provided on the lower fixed plate 12 for clamping the screw rod 18 when installing the piston 19. The second outer clamping jaw 203 grabs the piston 19 output from the vibration plate to the second transition position 26, and the second inner clamping jaw 202 grabs the piston 19 on the second transition position 26 to the first position 15 and installs it on the top of the screw rod 18.

[0059] The lower fixed plate 12 is secured to the machine platform 11 via a plurality of external fixing posts 36. Installation is completed by pressing the piston 19 against the top of the screw rod 18. A first inspection station is provided between the second device 2 and the first device 1. This station houses a first detector 33 for detecting whether the screw rod 18 is installed on the first position 15. This first detector 33 is a displacement sensor. Because the heights of the screw rod 18 are different when installed and when not, the distance from the displacement sensor above is also different.

[0060] An upper fixed plate 14 is provided above the lower fixed plate 12. The upper fixed plate 14 is fixed to the machine platform 11 through a plurality of internal fixed columns 34. The first detector 33 is mounted on the upper fixed plate 14 through a first mounting rod. The following displacement detector is also mounted on the upper fixed plate 14 through a mounting rod.

[0061] The third device 3 includes a third cross bar 301, a third inner clamp 302 fixed at the inner end of the third cross bar 301, a third outer clamp 303 fixed at the outer end of the third cross bar 301, and a third two-axis manipulator that drives the third cross bar 301 to move left and right or up and down. The third outer clamp 303 grabs the locator 20 output from the vibration plate to the third transition position 27, and the third inner clamp 302 grabs the locator 20 on the third transition position 27 to the second position 16.

[0062] A second detection station is provided between the third device 3 and the second device 2. A second detector is provided at the second detection station for detecting whether a piston 19 is installed on the screw rod 18. The second detector is a displacement sensor. Because the height of the screw rod 18 with a piston 19 is different from that of the screw rod 18 without a piston 19, the distance from the displacement sensor above is also different.
