Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of electricity meter sealing equipment technology, and more particularly to a carrier, electricity meter sealing equipment, and electricity meter sealing method. Background Technology

[0002] Different types of electricity meters are assembled using customized equipment, which means that a separate assembly line needs to be designed for each type of electricity meter. This requires the development of a wide variety of equipment, and the equipment development is carried out in multiple stages. The overall line cycle time cannot be unified. Furthermore, each type of equipment requires a customized carrier for the electricity meter, which results in poor carrier compatibility and high manufacturing costs.

[0003] Different types of electricity meters are produced using a manual line-changing mode. When the equipment produces different types of products, the core devices in the electricity meter are replaced manually to achieve equipment changeover production. This results in low production efficiency and poor production stability. During the adjustment process, it relies on manual experience and adjustment techniques, which incurs certain labor costs and does not have the ability to scale up production in batches.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a carrier, a meter sealing device, and a meter sealing method to solve the problems in the existing technology. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a carrier that is compatible with multiple types of electricity meters, thereby improving the carrier's compatibility. When electricity meters are replaced, there is no need to redesign and replace the carrier with a new one, which reduces the manufacturing cost of the carrier, saves debugging time, and improves assembly efficiency.

[0006] To achieve this objective, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] Vehicles, including:

[0008] Base plate;

[0009] The blocks are evenly distributed around the base plate. Each block includes a first step and a second step. The first steps form a first recessed area, and the second steps form a second recessed area. The first recessed area is used to engage a first energy meter, and the second recessed area is used to engage a second energy meter. The first energy meter and the second energy meter are different types of energy meters.

[0010] Optionally, the first step includes a first platform and a second platform, which are respectively attached to two mutually perpendicular outer walls of the first energy meter. The distance between two opposing first platforms is equal to the width of the first energy meter, and the distance between two opposing second platforms is equal to the length of the first energy meter.

[0012] Optionally, the vehicle further includes a braking mechanism, and at least one braking mechanism is provided at both the end of the first recess and the end of the second recess. The braking mechanism is used to limit the first energy meter to the first recess or to limit the second energy meter to the second recess.

[0013] Optionally, the braking mechanism includes:

[0014] Brake plate, wherein a brake groove is provided on the brake plate;

[0015] Brake pads are slidably disposed in the brake groove;

[0016] Brake cover plate, fixed to the outside of the brake plate;

[0017] The elastic element has one end connected to the brake cover plate and the other end connected to the brake pad;

[0019] Another objective of this invention is to provide an electricity meter sealing device that drives a carrier to rotate from a first placement mode to a second placement mode via a changeover module. This allows the carrier to switch from engaging the first electricity meter in the first placement mode to engaging the second electricity meter in the second placement mode. This changeover process can be achieved without manual intervention, saving labor costs and improving production efficiency.

[0020] To achieve this objective, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0024] The reversing mechanism includes a lifting and rotating assembly and a clamping plate assembly. The clamping plate assembly is disposed on the output end of the lifting and rotating assembly. The lifting and rotating assembly is used to drive the clamping plate assembly to clamp the carrier and rise above the empty carrier return conveyor line. The lifting and rotating assembly drives the carrier to rotate a preset angle so that the carrier falls back to the empty carrier return conveyor line.

[0025] Optionally, the electricity meter sealing device further includes an assembly module, which is used to assemble a first seal at a first seal feeding position onto the first electricity meter, or to assemble a second seal at a second seal feeding position onto the second electricity meter.

[0029] Optionally, the assembly module includes a second sealing and feeding mechanism, the second sealing and feeding mechanism comprising:

[0030] The second support has two second material channels arranged side by side at its top, and multiple second seals are arranged sequentially within the second material channels;

[0031] The second feeding drive unit, two of the second feeding drive units are arranged opposite each other in the horizontal direction at the top of the second support, and each second feeding drive unit corresponds to a discharge port of the second material channel;

[0032] The second misaligned block is connected to the output end of the second feeding drive. The second feeding drive is used to drive the second misaligned block to move horizontally so as to separate the second seal at the outlet of the second material channel.

[0033] Optionally, the assembly module further includes a material transfer mechanism and a variable-pitch suction mechanism. The variable-pitch suction mechanism is disposed on the output end of the material transfer mechanism, and the material transfer mechanism is used to drive the variable-pitch suction mechanism to move horizontally or vertically.

[0034] The variable-pitch suction mechanism is used to suction the first seal at the first seal feeding position or the second seal at the second seal feeding position.

[0035] Optionally, the variable-pitch suction mechanism includes:

[0036] A variable pitch mounting base is connected to the output end of the material transfer mechanism, and a variable pitch sliding groove is provided on the variable pitch mounting base;

[0037] A pitch-changing drive component is disposed on the pitch-changing mounting base;

[0038] The variable pitch sliders are both slidably disposed within the variable pitch grooves.

[0039] A linkage assembly, comprising a linkage mounting base and two linkages, wherein the linkage mounting base is connected to the output end of the pitch drive, the two linkages are respectively located on both sides of the linkage mounting base, one end of each linkage is hinged to the pitch slider and the other end is hinged to the linkage mounting base, and the pitch drive is used to drive the two pitch sliders to move closer or further apart from each other.

[0040] The suction head is used to pick up the first seal or the second seal. Each of the variable pitch sliders is provided with a suction head. The variable pitch drive is used to drive the linkage assembly to change the distance between the two suction heads.

[0041] The purpose of this invention is to provide a method for sealing electricity meters. By using a changeover module to drive the carrier to rotate from a first placement mode to a second placement mode, the carrier changes from engaging the first electricity meter in the first placement mode to engaging the second electricity meter in the second placement mode. This allows for changeover production of the electricity meter sealing equipment without manual intervention, saving labor costs and improving production efficiency.

[0042] To achieve this objective, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0043] The electricity meter sealing equipment further includes an assembly module, and the electricity meter sealing method includes:

[0044] The control module can switch the carrier to a first placement mode to adapt to the loading posture of the first energy meter or switch the carrier to a second placement mode to adapt to the loading posture of the second energy meter.

[0045] The control assembly module moves the first energy meter to the first recess of the vehicle or places the second energy meter in the second recess of the vehicle;

[0046] The control assembly module assembles the first seal onto the first energy meter in the first recessed area or assembles the second seal onto the second energy meter in the second recessed area.

[0047] Beneficial effects:

[0048] The carrier provided by this invention has multiple blocks evenly distributed on the base plate along its circumference. Each block is provided with a first step and a second step. The multiple first steps form a first recessed area, and the multiple second steps form a second recessed area. A first energy meter is engaged in the first recessed area, or a second energy meter is engaged in the second recessed area. This enables the carrier to be compatible with multiple types of energy meters, improving the carrier's compatibility. When the energy meter type is changed, there is no need to redesign and replace the carrier, reducing the carrier's manufacturing cost, saving debugging time, and improving assembly efficiency.

[0069] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and not intended to limit it. Furthermore, it should be noted that, for ease of description, the accompanying drawings show only the parts relevant to the present invention, and not all of the structures.

[0070] In the description of this invention, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "connected," "linked," and "fixed" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention based on the specific circumstances.

[0071] In this invention, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, "above" or "below" the second feature can include direct contact between the first and second features, or contact between the first and second features through another feature between them. Furthermore, "above," "over," and "on top" of the second feature includes the first feature directly above or diagonally above the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is at a higher horizontal level than the second feature. "Below," "below," and "under" the second feature includes the first feature directly below or diagonally below the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is at a lower horizontal level than the second feature.

[0072] In the description of this embodiment, the terms "upper," "lower," "left," and "right," etc., refer to the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are used only for ease of description and simplification of operation, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on the present invention. In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are used only for distinction in description and have no special meaning.

[0073] To accommodate the differences in manufacturing processes of various electricity meters and to address the issues of low production efficiency and poor reliability of equipment, this embodiment provides a carrier that is compatible with different models of electricity meters.

[0074] Specifically, such as Figures 1-3 As shown, the carrier 100 includes a base plate 110 and a stop block 120. Multiple stops block 120 are evenly distributed around the base plate 110. Each stop block 120 includes a first step 121 and a second step 122. Multiple first steps 121 form a first recessed area 130, and multiple second steps 122 form a second recessed area 140. The first recessed area 130 is used to engage a first energy meter 10, and the second recessed area 140 is used to engage a second energy meter 20. The first energy meter 10 and the second energy meter 20 are different types of energy meters.

[0075] The carrier 100 is compatible with various types of electricity meters, which improves the compatibility of the carrier 100. When the electricity meter is changed, there is no need to redesign and replace the carrier 100, which reduces the manufacturing cost of the carrier 100, saves debugging time, and improves assembly efficiency.

[0076] For example, the width of the first energy meter is L11 and the length of the first energy meter is L12, and the width of the second energy meter is L21 and the length of the second energy meter is L22. Based on the structure of the first energy meter 10 and the structure of the second energy meter 20, in this embodiment, the first step 121 includes a first platform 1211 and a second platform 1212. The first step 121 engages at the corner of the first energy meter 10, so that the first platform 1211 and the second platform 1212 respectively adhere to the two mutually perpendicular outer walls of the first energy meter 10. The distance between the two opposing first platforms 1211 is equal to the width L11 of the first energy meter, and the distance between the two opposing second platforms 1212 is equal to the length L12 of the first energy meter, thereby making the first recessed area 130 tightly fit with the first energy meter 10 and limiting the first energy meter 10. The second step 122 includes a third platform 1221 and a fourth platform 1222. The second step 122 can engage at the corner of the second energy meter 20, so that the third platform 1221 and the fourth platform 1222 respectively adhere to the two mutually perpendicular outer walls of the second energy meter 20. The distance between the two opposite third platforms 1221 is equal to the width L21 of the second energy meter, and the distance between the two opposite fourth platforms 1222 is equal to the length L22 of the second energy meter. The second recessed area 140 is tightly fitted to the second energy meter 20, so that the second recessed area 140 can limit the second energy meter 20.

[0077] Specifically, in this embodiment, four blocks 120 are provided, which are distributed around the base plate 110. The four first steps 121 can be engaged at the four corners of the first energy meter 10, and the four second steps 122 can be engaged at the four corners of the second energy meter 20, so that the vehicle 100 is compatible with different models of the first energy meter 10 and the second energy meter 20.

[0078] Optionally, such as Figure 2 As shown, the vehicle 100 also includes a braking mechanism 200. At least one braking mechanism 200 is provided at both the first recessed end 131 and the second recessed end 141. Specifically, the braking mechanism 200 of the first recessed area 130 is disposed between two first steps 121, and the braking mechanism 200 of the second recessed area 140 is disposed between two second steps 122. The braking mechanism 200 is used to limit the first energy meter 10 to be located in the first recessed area 130 or to limit the second energy meter 20 to be located in the second recessed area 140. The braking mechanism 200 can ensure that the energy meters in the vehicle 100 are more stable and prevent the energy meters from shifting or leaving the recessed area due to vibration or other external forces, thereby improving the stability of the energy meters and the vehicle 100.

[0079] The use of the braking mechanism 200 enhances the stability between the electricity meter and the vehicle 100. The braking mechanism 200 can effectively prevent the electricity meter from moving or shaking, and maintain its stable position and orientation.

[0080] Furthermore, the braking mechanism 200 includes a brake plate 210, brake pads 220, a brake cover plate 230, and an elastic element 240. The brake plate 210 is vertically fixed on the base plate 110, and a brake groove 211 is provided on the brake plate 210. The brake pads 220 are slidably disposed in the brake groove 211. The brake cover plate 230 is fixed to the outside of the brake plate 210. One end of the elastic element 240 is connected to the brake cover plate 230, and the other end is connected to the brake pads 220. Through the elastic force of the elastic element 240, the energy meter can be pressed against the corresponding recessed area to ensure the stability of the energy meter.

[0081] Specifically, one end of the first energy meter 10 located in the first recess 130 abuts against the brake pad 220, and the other end abuts against the second platform 1212, ensuring greater stability of the energy meter within the first recess 130 and preventing the first energy meter 10 from shifting or falling off due to external vibrations or other factors. Alternatively, one end of the second energy meter 20 located in the second recess 140 abuts against the brake pad 220, and the other end abuts against the fourth platform 1222, ensuring greater stability of the energy meter within the second recess 140 and preventing the second energy meter 20 from shifting or falling off due to external vibrations or other factors.

[0082] Optionally, the elastic element 240 in this embodiment can be, for example, a spring. The spring between the brake pad 220 and the brake cover plate 230 can provide the brake pad 220 with appropriate elasticity and flexibility, which allows the braking mechanism 200 to flexibly adapt to electricity meters of different sizes and shapes.

[0083] Based on the structure and functional principles of the carrier described above, this embodiment also provides an electricity meter sealing device, such as... Figures 1-7 As shown, the electricity meter sealing device includes a conversion module 300 and a carrier 100. The conversion module 300 is used to drive the carrier 100 to rotate from a first placement mode to a second placement mode, or from a second placement mode to a first placement mode. In the first placement mode, the carrier 100 engages with the first electricity meter 10; in the second placement mode, it engages with the second electricity meter 20. The carrier 100 can be found in the relevant description and will not be repeated here.

[0084] By setting up the changeover module 300, the carrier 100 can be quickly switched between different models of electricity meters without manual intervention, based on sealing and assembly requirements. This saves labor costs and improves production efficiency. Furthermore, through the automatic changeover function of the changeover module 300, the electricity meter sealing equipment can flexibly adapt to different sealing and assembly needs. According to actual assembly requirements, the equipment can quickly switch and adapt to different models of electricity meters. This flexibility and adaptability allows the production line to better respond to changes in market demand, improving its overall flexibility and adaptability.

[0085] Optionally, such as Figure 3 As shown, the changing module 300 includes a blocking mechanism 310 and a reversing mechanism 320. The blocking mechanism 310 is disposed on the empty vehicle return conveyor line and is used to block the vehicle 100 on the empty vehicle return conveyor line, thereby stopping and positioning the empty vehicle 100 on the return conveyor line. The reversing mechanism 320 includes a lifting and rotating assembly 321 and a clamping plate assembly 322. The clamping plate assembly 322 is disposed on the output end of the lifting and rotating assembly 321. The lifting and rotating assembly 321 is used to drive the clamping plate assembly 322 to clamp the positioned vehicle 100 and lift the vehicle 100 above the empty vehicle return conveyor line. The lifting and rotating assembly 321 drives the vehicle 100 to rotate a preset angle and then falls back onto the empty vehicle return conveyor line, completing the changing of the vehicle 100. In this embodiment, the preset angle by which the lifting and rotating assembly 321 drives the vehicle 100 to rotate is 90°.

[0086] Optionally, such as Figure 3 As shown, the material blocking mechanism 310 includes a material blocking cylinder 311, a material blocking mounting base plate 312, a support plate 313, a sliding groove plate 314, a material blocking slider 315, and a material blocking plate 316. The support plate 313 is vertically mounted on the material blocking mounting base plate 312. The sliding groove plate 314 is provided on the support plate 313, and a material blocking groove is formed on the sliding groove plate 314. The material blocking slider 315 is slidably disposed in the material blocking groove, and the material blocking plate 316 is fixed on the material blocking slider 315. The material blocking cylinder 311 is vertically mounted on the support plate 313. The cylinder body of the material blocking cylinder 311 is connected to the support plate 313, and the piston rod of the material blocking cylinder 311 is fixedly connected to the material blocking slider 315. The material blocking cylinder 311 can drive the material blocking plate 316 to rise vertically, thereby blocking the empty vehicle 100 on the empty vehicle return conveyor line and positioning the vehicle 100. Then the reversing mechanism 320 can reverse the direction of the vehicle 100.

[0087] Optionally, such as Figure 3 As shown, the pallet assembly 322 includes a pallet connecting plate 3221 and two pallets 3222. The two pallets 3222 are disposed opposite to each other on the pallet connecting plate 3221, and the carrier 100 has snap-fit ​​holes corresponding to the pallets 3222, thereby ensuring that the lifting and rotating assembly 321 drives the pallets 3222. After being raised, the pallet assembly 322 can be securely attached to the vehicle 100, ensuring the stability of the vehicle 100.

[0088] like Figure 3As shown, the lifting and rotating assembly 321 includes a lifting cylinder 3211, a rotating cylinder mounting plate 3213, and a rotating cylinder 3212. The rotating cylinder mounting plate 3213 is fixed to the piston rod of the lifting cylinder 3211. The cylinder body of the rotating cylinder 3212 is connected to the rotating cylinder mounting plate 3213. The clamping plate connecting plate 3221 is fixed to the output end of the rotating cylinder 3212. The lifting cylinder 3211 can raise the clamping plate 3222, which engages with the clamping hole of the carrier 100. Cylinder 3211 drives the pallet 3222 to continue rising, lifting the carrier 100 to outside the empty carrier return conveyor line. At this time, the rotary cylinder 3212 starts to work. Through the rotation of the rotary cylinder 3212, the carrier 100 can be changed from the first placement mode to the second placement mode or from the second placement mode to the first placement mode. After the conversion is completed, the reversing mechanism 320 resets, causing the carrier 100 to fall back to the empty carrier return conveyor line. With the conveying of the empty carrier return conveyor line, the closed-loop transmission of the carrier 100 is completed.

Driven by the fork cylinder 416, the forks 415 can be inserted into the snap-fit ​​holes on the carrier 100. The fork slide rail mounting plate 411 is driven by the material conveying electric cylinder to move along the conveying slide rail, which can transport the unsealed energy meter to the assembly station.

[0093] Optionally, such as Figure 5 As shown, the first seal feeding mechanism 500 includes a first support 510 and a first feeding drive 520. The first support 510 includes a first base plate 511, a first support plate 512, and a first material channel block 513. The first support plate 512 is vertically arranged on the first base plate 511, and the first material channel block 513 is arranged on the first support plate 512. Two first material channels are arranged side by side on the first material channel block 513, and multiple first seals are arranged sequentially in each first material channel.

The first feeding drive 520 is used to drive the first misaligned blocks 522 to rise, so that the first seals located at the outlet of the first material channel are misaligned and separated. This precise supply and assembly sequence helps to improve the accuracy and efficiency of assembly.

[0094] Optionally, such as Figure 5As shown, the first support 510 also includes a first reinforcing plate 514. The bottom end of the first reinforcing plate 514 is connected to the first base plate 511, and one side wall of the first reinforcing plate 514 is connected to the first support plate 512.

The two second feeding drive 630s are arranged opposite each other on the tray 625 in the horizontal direction. Each second feeding drive 630 corresponds to the outlet of a second material channel. The second staggered block 632 is connected to the output end of the second feeding drive 630. The second feeding drive 630 is used to drive the second staggered block 632 to move horizontally so as to separate the second seal at the outlet of the second material channel. This layout ensures the orderly arrangement and supply of the second seal.

[0096] Optionally, the first feeding drive 520 and the second feeding drive 630 can be, for example, cylinders. Cylinders are characterized by high stability, maintaining relatively stable speed and force during movement. This is crucial for accurately controlling and positioning the movement of the first misaligned block 522 and the second misaligned block 632. A highly stable cylinder ensures accurate material distribution, improving assembly accuracy and reliability. Furthermore, as a reliable actuator, the cylinder has a long service life and stable performance. It can withstand frequent movements and repetitive work without excessive wear and damage. This allows the cylinder to maintain stable and reliable performance during long-term assembly, reducing maintenance and replacement needs and lowering production costs.

[0097] Optionally, such as Figure 6 As shown, the second support 620 also includes a second reinforcing plate 627. The bottom end of the second reinforcing plate 627 is connected to the second base plate 621, and the two side walls of the second reinforcing plate 627 are connected to the second support plate 622. The second reinforcing plate 627 is used to strengthen the structural strength of the second support 620 and increase the overall rigidity and stability of the second support 620.

[0098] Furthermore, such as Figure 6 As shown, to ensure more stable movement of the second misaligned block 632, two slide rail pairs 626 are provided on the pallet 625, with each second misaligned block 632 corresponding to one slide rail pair 626 for sliding connection. Through the use of the slide rail pairs 626, the sliding direction of the second misaligned block 632 on the pallet 625 is better restricted, helping to maintain the stability of the misaligned block's position and orientation, thereby improving the material distribution accuracy.

[0099] Optionally, two buffer adjustment plates 6251 are also provided on the pallet 625. The two buffer adjustment plates 6251 correspond to the two second misaligned blocks 632 respectively. Each buffer adjustment plate 6251 is provided with a buffer rod 6252 to provide a buffering effect for the corresponding second misaligned block 632, reduce the vibration of the second misaligned block 632, and further improve the material distribution accuracy.

[0100] Optionally, the electricity meter sealing device in this embodiment further includes a first circular sealing vibratory feeder. The first circular sealing vibratory feeder stores multiple first seals and outputs two first seal feeding channels. The two first seal feeding channels correspond to two first material channels respectively. Through the vibration of the first circular sealing vibratory feeder, the multiple first seals are arranged in an orderly manner along the first seal feeding channels and conveyed to the first material channels, thereby improving supply efficiency and avoiding supply interruption.

[0101] Optionally, the electricity meter sealing equipment also includes a second circular sealing vibratory feeder. The second circular sealing vibratory feeder stores multiple second seals and outputs two second seal feeding channels. The two second seal feeding channels correspond to two second material channels respectively. Through the vibration of the second circular sealing vibratory feeder, the multiple second seals are arranged in an orderly manner along the second seal feeding channels and conveyed to the second material channels, thereby improving supply efficiency and avoiding supply interruptions.

[0102] Optionally, such as Figures 7-8 As shown, the assembly module 700 also includes a material transfer mechanism 710 and a variable-pitch suction mechanism 720. The variable-pitch suction mechanism 720 is disposed on the output end of the material transfer mechanism 710. The material transfer mechanism 710 is used to drive the variable-pitch suction mechanism 720 to move horizontally or vertically, so that the variable-pitch suction mechanism 720 can pick up the first seal at the first seal feeding position or pick up the second seal at the second seal feeding position.

[0103] Specifically, such as Figure 8As shown, the variable pitch suction mechanism 720 includes a variable pitch mounting base 721, a variable pitch drive 722, a variable pitch slider 725, a linkage assembly 723, and a suction head 724. The linkage assembly 723 includes a linkage mounting base and two linkages. The linkage mounting base is connected to the output end of the variable pitch drive 722. The two linkages are located on both sides of the linkage mounting base. The two variable pitch sliders 725 are slidably disposed in the variable pitch groove 7211. One end of each linkage is hinged to a variable pitch slider 725, and the other end of the linkage is hinged to the linkage mounting base. The variable pitch drive 722 is used to drive the two variable pitch sliders 725 to slide along the variable pitch groove 7211 to move closer to or further away from each other. Each variable pitch slider 725 is provided with a suction head 724. The variable pitch drive 722 is used to drive the linkage assembly 723 to change the distance between the two suction heads 724, so that the distance between the two suction heads 724 is equal to the distance between the two sealing assembly positions.

[0104] Specifically, to improve assembly efficiency and reduce downtime for debugging, this embodiment includes two variable-pitch suction mechanisms 720 at the output end of the transfer mechanism 710. One of the two variable-pitch suction mechanisms 720 adjusts the distance between the two suction heads 724 to be equal to the distance between the two first seal feeding channels via a variable-pitch drive 722, so as to simultaneously suction two first seals. This mechanism, in conjunction with the transfer mechanism 710, assembles the suction-collected two first seals onto the first energy meter 10. The other of the two variable-pitch suction mechanisms 720 adjusts the distance between the two suction heads 724 to be equal to the distance between the two second seal feeding channels via a variable-pitch drive 722, so as to simultaneously suction two second seals. This mechanism, in conjunction with the transfer mechanism 710, assembles the suction-collected two second seals onto the second energy meter.

[0105] Optionally, the variable pitch drive 722 is a cylinder. The cylinder can adjust the air pressure to realize the push-pull movement of the connecting rod assembly 723, thereby changing the distance between the suction heads 724. As a common actuator, the cylinder has the advantages of fast response, high stability and strong adjustability, and is suitable for driving the variable pitch suction mechanism 720.

[0106] Optionally, the material transfer mechanism 710 includes support feet 711 and a crossbeam 712. The two support feet 711 are arranged opposite to each other, and the two ends of the crossbeam 712 are respectively connected to one support foot 711. A transfer cylinder 7121 is provided on the crossbeam 712. The input end of the transfer cylinder 7121 is connected to the output shaft of the transfer motor 7122. A lifting mounting plate 713 is provided at the output end of the transfer cylinder 7121. A lifting mechanism 714 is provided on the lifting mounting plate 713. The output end of the lifting mechanism 714 is provided with the two variable pitch suction mechanisms 720 mentioned above for suctioning the corresponding seals.

[0107] Furthermore, the lifting mechanism 714 includes a main lifting assembly 7141 and two sub-lifting assemblies 7142. The output end of the main lifting assembly 7141 is provided with two sub-lifting assemblies 7142, and the output end of each sub-lifting assembly 7142 is provided with a variable pitch suction mechanism 720. The main lifting assembly 7141 can drive the two variable pitch suction mechanisms 720 to lift and lower simultaneously, and the sub-lifting assemblies 7142 can drive their corresponding variable pitch suction mechanisms 720 to lift and lower individually. This compensates for the insufficient stroke of the main lifting assembly 7141, enabling the lifting mechanism 714 to adapt to the assembly depth of different models of electricity meters and improving the adaptability and reliability of the assembly module 700.

[0108] Optionally, the main lifting assembly 7141 includes a first slide rail 71411, a first mounting plate 71412, a first cylinder 71413, a first floating joint 71414, a first sliding plate 71415, and a first slider 71416. The first slide rail 71411 is vertically mounted on the lifting mounting plate 713. The first slider 71416 is slidably connected to the first slide rail 71411. The first sliding plate 71415 is fixed on the first slider 71416. The first mounting plate 71412 is fixedly connected to the lifting mounting plate 713. The cylinder body of the first cylinder 71413 is connected to the first mounting plate 71412. The piston rod of the first cylinder 71413 is connected to the first sliding plate 71415 through the first floating joint 71414. Two sub-lifting assemblies 7142 are mounted on the first sliding plate 71415. The driving force of the first cylinder 71413 can simultaneously drive the two sub-lifting assemblies 7142 to rise or fall.

[0109] Furthermore, the main lifting assembly 7141 also includes a first buffer assembly 71417, which includes a first buffer head 714171 and a first buffer block 714172. The first buffer head 714171 is disposed on the first sliding plate 71415, and the first buffer block 714172 is disposed on the lifting mounting plate 713. After the first cylinder 71413 drives the first sliding plate 71415 to descend into position, the first buffer head 714171 contacts the first buffer block 714172, which can provide buffering for the first sliding plate 71415, reduce the vibration of the first sliding plate 71415, thereby reducing the vibration of the variable pitch suction mechanism 720, ensuring the correct alignment and positioning of the variable pitch suction mechanism 720 and the energy meter, and improving the accuracy and quality of assembly.

[0110] Optionally, a middle plate 71418 is vertically arranged on the first slide plate 71415, and a second mounting plate 71419 is arranged on the top of the middle plate 71418. Two sets of lifting components 7142 are arranged on the second mounting plate 71419, and the two sets of lifting components 7142 are symmetrically distributed with respect to the middle plate 71418. Each set of lifting components 7142 includes a second cylinder 71421, a second floating joint 71422, a second slide plate 71423, a second slider 71424, a second slide rail 71425, and a variable pitch cylinder mounting plate. The cylinder body of 421 is fixed on the second mounting plate 71419. The second slide rail 71425 is vertically arranged on the intermediate plate 71418. The second slider 71424 is slidably connected to the second slide rail 71425. The second slide plate 71423 is fixed on the second slider 71424 and connected to the piston rod of the second cylinder 71421. The pitch cylinder is fixed on the second slide plate 71423 through the pitch cylinder mounting plate. Driven by the second cylinder 71421, the pitch mechanism can continue to move downward, thereby completing the assembly of different types of electricity meters.

[0111] Optionally, the lifting assembly 7142 further includes a second buffer assembly 71426. The second buffer assembly 71426 includes a second buffer head 714261 and a second buffer block 714262. The second buffer head 714261 is disposed on the second slide plate 71423, and the second buffer block 714262 is disposed on the first slide plate 71415. Through the contact between the second buffer head 714261 and the second buffer block 714262, shock absorption can be achieved, further improving the stability of the variable pitch suction mechanism 720.

[0112] Based on the structure and functional principle of the electricity meter sealing device described above, this embodiment also provides an electricity meter sealing method. It can also be understood that the electricity meter sealing method of this embodiment can be applied to the electricity meter sealing device in any of the above embodiments. Figure 9 As shown, the sealing methods for electricity meters include:

[0113] The control module 300 switches the carrier 100 to the first placement mode to adapt to the loading posture of the first energy meter 10 or switches the carrier 100 to the second placement mode to adapt to the loading posture of the second energy meter 20.

[0114] The control assembly module 700 assembles the first energy meter 10 into the first recess 130 of the carrier 100 or assembles the second energy meter 20 into the second recess 140 of the carrier 100.

[0115] The control assembly module 700 assembles the first seal into the first energy meter 10 in the first recess 130 or assembles the second seal into the second energy meter 20 in the second recess 140.

[0116] The electricity meter sealing method provided in this embodiment, by using the above-mentioned electricity meter sealing equipment, can realize automatic change of electricity meter sealing equipment, thereby completing the assembly of different models of products, reducing production costs and improving production efficiency.

[0117] Specifically, the sealing method for the electricity meter includes:

[0118] S1. After the empty carrier 100 feeds the energy meter product through the semi-finished product feeding mechanism, it flows to the entrance of the shift fork conveyor line 410 through the semi-finished product feeding conveyor line.

[0119] S2. After receiving the arrival signal of the carrier 100, the shift fork conveyor line 410 drives the shift fork 415 to rise and lock the carrier 100 with material through the shift fork cylinder 416. The carrier 100 is transported to the assembly station through the cooperation of the material conveying electric cylinder and the material conveying slide rail. At the same time, the first sealing feeding mechanism 500 or the second sealing feeding mechanism 600 performs the mis-separation feeding of the seal.

[0120] S3. After the material carrier 100 moves into position, the material transfer mechanism 710 of the assembly module 700 moves to the first seal feeding mechanism 500 or the second seal feeding mechanism 600, and picks up two first seals through the variable distance suction mechanism 720 corresponding to the first seal feeding mechanism 500, or picks up two second seals through the variable distance suction mechanism 720 corresponding to the second seal feeding mechanism 600.

[0121] S4. After the seal is picked up, the material transfer mechanism 710 drives the variable pitch suction mechanism 720 to move to the assembly station. The main lifting assembly 7141 and the sub-lifting assembly 7142 descend in sequence to load the seal into the semi-finished product. After the assembly action is completed, a completion command is issued. At the same time, the cylinder at the entrance of the shift fork conveyor line 410 extends the baffle 623 to block the material carrier 100. Multiple carriers 100 are transported along the feeding conveyor line to the entrance of the shift fork conveyor line 410. Then the shift fork conveyor line 410 repeats the above feeding steps to transport the unsealed energy meter to the assembly station.

[0122] S5. After the material is unloaded, the empty carrier 100 is sent to the changing module 300 via the empty carrier return conveyor line for changing. The changing module 300 includes a blocking mechanism 310 and a reversing mechanism 320. The blocking mechanism 310 is set on the empty carrier return conveyor line and is used to block the carrier 100 on the empty carrier return conveyor line, thereby stopping and positioning the empty carrier 100 on the return conveyor line. The reversing mechanism 320 includes a lifting and rotating assembly 321 and a clamping plate assembly 322. The clamping plate assembly 322 is set on the output end of the lifting and rotating assembly 321. The lifting and rotating assembly 321 is used to drive the clamping plate assembly 322 to clamp the positioned carrier 100 and lift the carrier 100 above the empty carrier return conveyor line. The lifting and rotating assembly 321 drives the carrier 100 to rotate 90° and fall back onto the empty carrier return conveyor line, completing the changing of the carrier 100.

[0123] S6. After the photoelectric detection detects that the empty carrier 100 has completed the transformation and flows out of the transformation module 300 station, the baffle cylinder 311 in front of the reversing mechanism 320 drives the baffle plate 316 to extend again. The above steps are repeated to transform the next empty carrier 100. The transformed empty carrier 100 is transported to the semi-finished product feeding mechanism along the empty carrier return conveyor line to complete the closed-loop transmission.

[0124] It should be noted that the type-changing module 300 in this embodiment only works when the production line changes the type of the assembled energy meter. After all carriers 100 have been changed, the type-changing module 300 is in a static state.

[0125] Obviously, the above embodiments of the present invention are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present invention, and are not intended to limit the implementation of the present invention. Those skilled in the art will be able to make various obvious changes, readjustments, and substitutions without departing from the scope of protection of the present invention. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively describe all embodiments here. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
