Description

Technical Field

[0002] At present, the capacitor bending and automatic assembly functions of automotive seat micromotors mainly rely on manual bending and manual assembly, which is labor-intensive. In addition, during the bending process, it is easy to pay extreme attention to the bending force and angle. If the operator's attention is not focused, the capacitor may be bent too hard and damage the capacitor, or the capacitor bending angle may be too large or too small, thus failing to meet quality requirements. Once the capacitor bending angle does not meet the quality requirements, the capacitor pins will be abnormally bent when the capacitor is assembled into the housing, affecting the circuit and performance of the motor. Secondary manual bending is not allowed, otherwise the capacitor pins will break easily and can only be scrapped.

[0054] A control method for a capacitor bending device for a micromotor production line comprises the following steps:

[0055] S1 . Loading: multiple capacitors 71 are arranged in the feeding mechanism 12 . The feeding mechanism 12 sequentially loads the capacitors 71 onto the loading and transporting mechanism 13 . The loading and transporting mechanism 13 transports the capacitors 71 to the loading platform 61 .

[0056] S2, transporting materials: the loading platform 61 moves upward and lifts the capacitor 71 on the loading platform 61, so that the capacitor 71 is separated from the loading and transporting mechanism 13. At this time, if the loading sensor detects the capacitor 71, the loading and transporting mechanism 13 will stop operating, and the transporting mechanism 21 will clamp the capacitor 71 from the loading platform 61, and the loading platform 61 will move downward back to its original position. Then the loading and transporting mechanism 13 is started, and the transporting mechanism 21 will place the capacitor 71 on the positioning component, so that the capacitor 71 is engaged with the positioning component to realize the positioning of the capacitor 71;

[0057] The feeding rotating driving member 62 drives the feeding lifting driving member 63 and the clamping platform 64 to flip to a vertical state and the clamping slot 65 opens upward, so that the capacitor 71 with the pin 72 passing through the clamping slot 65 flips to a horizontal state, and then the feeding lifting driving member 63 drives the clamping platform 64 to move upward, so that the capacitor 71 moves away from the feeding transport mechanism 13;

[0058] When the capacitor 71 in the clamping slot 65 is clamped by the transport mechanism 21, the loading lifting drive 63 drives the clamping platform 64 to descend, and the loading rotation drive 62 drives the loading lifting drive 63 and the clamping platform 64 to flip to the initial state;

[0060] S3, processing: the conveyor belt 32 drives the positioning assembly and the capacitor 71 to move. When the positioning assembly moves to the first bending mechanism 41, the conveyor belt 32 stops, and the positioning drive member 33 drives the positioning block 34 and the capacitor 71 to move closer to the first bending mechanism 41. The first bending mechanism 41 moves and bends the capacitor 71. Then the first bending mechanism 41 returns to its original position.

[0061] When the positioning assembly moves to the cutting mechanism 43, the conveyor belt 32 stops, the positioning drive member 33 drives the positioning block 34 and the capacitor 71 to move closer to the cutting mechanism 43, the cutting mechanism 43 moves and bends the capacitor 71, and then the cutting mechanism 43 returns to its original position. After the cutting sensor detects that the cutting mechanism 43 returns to its original position, the positioning drive member 33 drives the positioning block 34 and the capacitor 71 to move away from the cutting mechanism 43, and the conveyor belt 32 drives the positioning assembly and the capacitor 71 to move out of the cutting mechanism 43;

[0062] When the positioning assembly moves to the second bending mechanism 42, the conveyor belt 32 stops, the positioning drive component 33 drives the positioning block 34 and the capacitor 71 to move closer to the second bending mechanism 42, the second bending mechanism 42 moves and bends the capacitor 71, and then the second bending mechanism 42 returns to its original position.

[0063] S4, assembly: the micromotor body is placed on the micromotor transport mechanism 14, and the conveyor belt 32 drives the positioning assembly to move to the flip assembly mechanism 51. When the conveying sensor detects the positioning assembly, the conveyor belt 32 stops and suspends operation.

[0064] S5, determine whether to cycle: determine whether to process again, if yes, the conveyor belt 32 drives the positioning assembly to move to the transport mechanism 21, and enter step S2, if no, enter step S6.

[0065] S6. End.

[0066] The flip assembly mechanism 51 clamps the capacitor 71 from the positioning component, flips the capacitor 71 and places it on the micromotor body.

The feeding method of separating people from materials reserves enough space for operators to place products, and the loading is carried out outside the equipment, which will not affect the normal operation and operation rhythm of the equipment, and will not interfere with the operation of the equipment. That is, while ensuring the safety of personnel, it can also effectively avoid the collision between the operator and the mechanism during the product placement process, resulting in equipment failure or product failure, thereby reducing the occurrence of risks.

[0070] The present invention takes the bending of capacitor 71 for automobile micro-motor as an example, which can be applicable to the bending, cutting and assembly requirements of capacitor 71 products of various types and sizes, and has reliability. The platform device can realize the universal capacitor 71 bending function of all motor production lines by simply adjusting the carrying clamp 25, the placed tooling, and changing the size and dimensions of the processing tools, and can also realize the rapid switching of multiple types of micro-motor products, and realize a multi-variety, multi-style platform capacitor 71 bending mechanism, which has a high promotion value.

[0071] When the capacitor 71 is moved to the loading and transporting mechanism 13, the loading and transporting mechanism 13 can limit the capacitor 71 so that the capacitors 71 are arranged neatly in sequence and have the same orientation, which not only provides a basis for the subsequent higher-precision positioning of the capacitor 71, but also ensures the reliability of the capacitor 71 during its movement on the loading and transporting mechanism 13, and prevents the capacitor 71 from being stuck due to inconsistent angles.

[0072] A capacitor 71 is lifted upward by the loading platform 61, so that the transport mechanism 21 can clamp a capacitor 71 individually without being stuck by other capacitors 71. It can also prevent the transport mechanism 21 from colliding with the unclamped capacitor 71 when clamping a capacitor 71, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the position of the unclamped capacitor 71 on the loading and transport mechanism 13.

[0073] When the loading platform 61 moves upward, if the loading sensor detects the capacitor 71, the loading transport mechanism 13 will suspend operation to prevent the capacitor 71 on the loading transport mechanism 13 from moving under the loading platform 61 and jamming the loading platform 61, thereby improving reliability. When the loading platform 61 returns to its original position, the loading transport mechanism 13 starts and continues to transport the capacitor 71.

[0074] Since the pin 72 of the capacitor 71 is used for positioning on the loading and transporting platform, the capacitor 71 needs to be turned over during the processing of the capacitor 71, so as to facilitate bending and cutting of the pin 72 of the capacitor 71. The capacitor 71 is turned over by the transport mechanism 21 and then placed on the positioning component, so as to improve the positioning accuracy of the capacitor 71 and facilitate the processing of the pin 72 of the capacitor 71.

[0075] The capacitor 71 is subjected to the first bending, cutting, and second bending by the first bending mechanism 41, the cutting mechanism 43, and the second bending mechanism 42, respectively, so that the capacitor 71 can be processed multiple times and in different forms, which effectively improves the applicability. In addition, the device can set a plurality of different types of processing mechanisms on the conveying path of the conveyor belt 32 according to the processing needs, so that it can be applied to the processing of different capacitors 71 and different shapes, and has the advantage of high applicability. Different processing requirements can be met by setting different processing modules on the path of the conveyor belt 32, and a modular design can be formed, which has a high promotion value.

[0076] After the capacitor 71 is bent and cut, the flip assembly mechanism 51 directly removes the capacitor 71 from the positioning assembly, thereby ensuring the positioning accuracy of the capacitor 71 on the flip assembly mechanism 51. After the capacitor 71 is flipped to a suitable angle, the capacitor 71 is assembled to the micro-motor body, thereby realizing the automatic assembly of the capacitor 71 and the micro-motor body, and ensuring the assembly accuracy of the capacitor 71, achieving the advantages of high assembly efficiency and low defect rate.

[0077] The loading and transporting mechanism 13 utilizes the vibration generated during the operation of the vibrating loading plate to make the material move along the inclined direction of the loading and transporting mechanism 13 during the vibration process, thereby realizing the function of conveying the material to the upper feeding platform 61. No additional power module is required, which reduces costs and saves space.

[0078] The second bending mechanism 42 can be used to perform a second bending process on the pin 72 of the capacitor 71, so that more complex parts can be processed, thereby improving applicability.

[0079] The second bending mechanism 42 is installed on the assembly lifting drive member 53, so that the second bending mechanism 42 can be driven to move by the assembly translation drive member 52, thereby playing a role in adjusting the position of the second bending mechanism 42. The position of the second bending mechanism 42 for bending the capacitor 71 can be adjusted according to the requirements of the workpiece size and the equipment size, thereby improving applicability.
