Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of sealing cap pressing technology, and in particular to a sealing cap pressing device and pressing method. Background Technology
[0002] The dual-mass flywheel is a new structure applied in automotive powertrains in the late 1980s. It is also a special flywheel design in the transmission system, used to reduce vibration and improve the connection between the engine and the transmission system. It can effectively isolate the torsional vibration of the engine crankshaft, which is beneficial to improving the performance of the car.
[0003] In the production process of dual-mass flywheels, the flywheel sealing caps need to be press-fitted, which includes two steps: placement and pressing. Existing manufacturing processes usually divide these two steps into two processes. As the number of processes increases, the production line becomes more complex. Each process requires independent equipment, tools, and operating procedures, which not only increases the equipment investment cost of production but also reduces the pressing efficiency of the sealing caps. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to at least solve one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. To this end, this invention proposes a sealing cap pressing device and its pressing method, which can reduce the input of equipment and manpower, improve production efficiency and reduce production costs.
[0005] According to an embodiment of the present invention, a sealing cap pressing device includes a frame; a feeding mechanism, which is mounted on the frame and includes a first track; a feeding mechanism, which is mounted on the frame and is used to drive the sealing cap to move, the feeding mechanism including a second track, the input end of the second track being opposite to the output end of the first track and spaced apart from it; a clearance mechanism, which is mounted on the frame and includes a third track, which is movably mounted on the frame, the input end of the third track being opposite to the output end of the second track and spaced apart from it, the output end of the third track being provided with a limit groove; and a pressing mechanism, which is mounted on the frame and is used to press the sealing cap on the limit groove onto the flywheel mounting hole.
[0006] The sealing cap pressing equipment according to an embodiment of the present invention has at least the following beneficial effects: the sealing cap enters the feeding mechanism, is output to the feeding mechanism via the first track of the feeding mechanism, and is then transported to the third track of the avoidance mechanism by the second track of the feeding mechanism. Finally, it falls into the limiting groove at the output end of the third track. The pressing mechanism sequentially grabs the sealing cap in the limiting groove through several pressing heads and presses the sealing cap onto the flywheel mounting hole, thus combining the placement and pressing steps into one process. This simplifies the production process and operating steps, reducing the investment in equipment, manpower, and energy, thereby lowering production costs. Furthermore, it reduces interference and errors in intermediate links, helping to improve the flexibility and adaptability of the production line, reducing the possibility of potential errors and problems, saving time, and greatly improving production efficiency.
[0007] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the feeding mechanism further includes a vibrating screen, which is mounted on a frame and connected to a first track. The output end of the vibrating screen is positioned opposite to the input end of the first track. The vibrating screen is used for screening and supplying sealing caps.
[0008] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the feeding mechanism further includes a linear vibrator disposed on the frame and connected to a second track, the linear vibrator being used to provide forward power to the sealing cap on the second track.
[0009] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the obstacle avoidance mechanism further includes: a bracket, which is fixedly connected to the lower end of the third track, the bracket is arranged along the extension direction of the third track, and the bracket spans the second channel and the third channel; a first driving member, which is arranged on the frame, the first driving member is connected to the third track through the bracket, and the first driving member drives the bracket to move the third track horizontally in a direction perpendicular to the third track.
[0010] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the avoidance mechanism further includes a limiting component, which is connected to the third track via a bracket, and the limiting component is used to limit the movement direction of the third channel.
[0011] According to some embodiments of the present invention, a first blocking part is provided at the end of the second track away from the first track, and a second blocking part is provided at the end of the third track close to the second track. The third track moves horizontally in a direction perpendicular to the third track, with the input end of the third track abutting against the first blocking part and the second blocking part abutting against the output end of the second track.
[0012] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the pressing mechanism includes: a support seat disposed on a frame and used to hold a flywheel; a gripping assembly disposed on the frame and used to grip a sealing cap; and a second driving member disposed on the frame and connected to the gripping assembly for driving the gripping assembly to press the sealing cap onto the flywheel.
[0013] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the gripping assembly includes: a first mounting plate, which is connected to a second driving member, the second driving member driving the first mounting plate to move vertically; a second mounting plate, which is movably connected to the first mounting plate via a third driving member, the third driving member driving the second mounting plate to move vertically relative to the first mounting plate, a fourth driving member being provided at the upper end of the second mounting plate; and a third mounting plate, which is fixedly connected to the first mounting plate, a fixed seat being provided at the lower end of the third mounting plate, the fixed seat being connected to the fourth driving member, the fourth driving member driving the fixed seat to rotate relative to the second mounting plate, a plurality of pressing heads being provided at the lower end of the fixed seat, the plurality of pressing heads being evenly distributed along the circumference of the fixed seat.
[0014] According to some embodiments of the present invention, a permanent magnet is provided at the lower end of the pressing head, which is used to attract the sealing cap to the lower end of the pressing head.
[0015] A pressing method for a sealing cap pressing device according to a second aspect embodiment of the present invention includes:
[0016] Step 1: Assemble the flywheel onto the support base and place the sealing cover into the vibrating screen;
[0017] Step 2: The vibrating screen vibrates and screens the sealing caps, and outputs the sealing caps with the openings facing upwards to the first track in an orderly manner;
[0018] Step 3: The sealing cap enters the second track set on the direct vibrator through the first track. The direct vibrator outputs the sealing cap from the second track to the third track through vibration, so that the sealing cap at the front of the sealing cap queue moves into the limiting groove.
[0019] Step 4: The fourth driving component drives the fixed base to rotate, so that one of the pressing heads corresponds to the sealing cover in the limiting groove in the vertical direction. The third driving component drives the second mounting plate to move downward relative to the first mounting plate, so that the pressing head fits with the sealing cover on the limiting groove. After the sealing cover is connected to the corresponding pressing head, the third driving component drives the second mounting plate to move upward relative to the first mounting plate, and at the same time, the new sealing cover is output into the limiting groove.
[0020] Step 5: Repeat step 4 until all pressing heads are connected to the sealing caps. Then, the fourth drive unit drives the fixed base to rotate so that all pressing heads correspond to the mounting holes on the flywheel in the vertical direction.
[0021] Step 6: The first driving component drives the third track to move horizontally in a direction perpendicular to the third track. After the third track is outside the range covered by the downward movement trajectory of the gripping component, the first blocking part abuts against the input end of the third track, and the second blocking part abuts against the output end of the second track, thereby preventing the sealing cover from falling from the input end of the third track and the output end of the second track.
[0022] Step 7: The second drive unit drives the gripping assembly to move downward. When the sealing cover contacts the flywheel, the second drive unit transmits pressure to the fixed seat, causing the pressing head to press the sealing cover into the flywheel mounting hole. After the output pressure reaches the set value, the second drive unit drives the gripping assembly to move upward.
[0023] Additional aspects and advantages of the invention will be set forth in part in the description which follows, and in part will be obvious from the description, or may be learned by practice of the invention. Attached Figure Description

[0042] refer to Figures 1 to 6 This invention describes a sealing cap pressing device and a pressing method thereof according to embodiments of the present invention.
[0043] like Figures 1 to 6As shown, the sealing cap pressing equipment according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: a frame 100; a feeding mechanism 200, which is disposed on the frame 100 and includes a first track 210; a feeding mechanism 300, which is disposed on the frame 100 and is used to drive the sealing cap 10 to move, the feeding mechanism 300 including a second track 310, the input end of the second track 310 being opposite to the output end of the first track 210 and spaced apart from the output end of the first track 210; and a clearance mechanism 40. 0. A clearance mechanism 400 is mounted on the frame 100. The clearance mechanism 400 includes a third track 410, which is movably mounted on the frame 100. The input end of the third track 410 is opposite to the output end of the second track 310, and the input end of the third track 410 and the output end of the second track 310 are spaced apart. The output end of the third track 410 is provided with a limit groove 412. A pressing mechanism 500 is mounted on the frame 100 and is used to press the sealing cover 10 on the limit groove 412 onto the flywheel mounting hole 20.
[0044] like Figure 1 As shown, the frame 100 is equipped with a feeding mechanism 200, a feeding mechanism 300, a clearance mechanism 400, and a pressing mechanism 500. The feeding mechanism 200, feeding mechanism 300, clearance mechanism 400, and pressing mechanism 500 are arranged sequentially from right to left. The feeding mechanism 200 is equipped with a first track 210, the feeding mechanism 300 is equipped with a second track 310, and the clearance mechanism 400 is equipped with a third track 410. The first track 210, the second track 310, and the third track 410 all extend in the left-right direction. The output end of the first track 210 is opposite to the input end of the second track 310, and the output end of the second track 310 is opposite to the input end of the third track 410. The first track 210, the second track 310, and the third track 410 are not connected to each other and are independent of each other. That is, there is a gap between the connecting positions of the first track 210 and the second track 310, and there is a gap between the connecting positions of the second track 310 and the third track 410. The output end of the third track 410 is provided with a limiting groove 412. The pressing mechanism 500 includes several pressing heads 510. Each pressing head 510 can be sequentially aligned with the limiting groove 412, so that the pressing heads 510 can sequentially grasp the sealing groove on the limiting groove 412.
[0045] The sealing cap 10 enters the feeding mechanism 200, is output through the first track 210 of the feeding mechanism 200 to the feeding mechanism 300, and then the second track 310 of the feeding mechanism 300 transports the sealing cap 10 to the third track 410 of the avoidance mechanism 400. Finally, it falls into the limiting groove 412 at the output end of the third track 410. The pressing mechanism 500 uses several pressing heads 510 to sequentially grab the sealing cap 10 in the limiting groove 412 and press the sealing cap 10 onto the flywheel mounting hole 20, thus combining the placement and pressing steps into one process. Simplifying the production process and operation steps reduces the investment in equipment, manpower, and energy, thereby reducing production costs. On the other hand, it reduces interference and errors in intermediate links, helps to improve the flexibility and adaptability of the production line, reduces the possibility of potential errors and problems, saves time, and greatly improves production efficiency.
[0046] Specifically, the width of the first track 210, the second track 310, and the third track 410 is such that only one sealing cover 10 can pass through each track. The sealing cover 10 moves linearly along the channels restricted by the first track 210, the second track 310, and the third track 410. The cross-section of the first track 210, the second track 310, and the third track 410 is rectangular, and the upper end face is provided with through slots in the left and right directions to provide a visual window so that operators or staff can monitor and check the operation of the sealing cover 10 on the track in real time. This allows them to determine whether the sealing cover 10 is moving normally, whether it is jammed, or whether it is rubbing or interfering with other components. This helps to detect and resolve potential faults or problems in a timely manner, ensuring the smooth progress of the transportation process.
[0047] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, the feeding mechanism 200 further includes a vibrating screen 220, which is mounted on the frame 100 and connected to the first track 210. The output end of the vibrating screen 220 is positioned opposite to the input end of the first track 210. The vibrating screen 220 is used to screen and supply the sealing cover 10.
[0048] like Figure 1As shown, the feeding mechanism 200 also includes a vibrating screen 220, which is located at the right end of the frame 100, and the left end of the vibrating screen 220 is connected to the first track 210. Specifically, the vibrating screen 220 includes a material tray and a spiral track 223. The spiral track 223 is located on the inner wall of the material tray, and the output end of the spiral track 223 is connected to the input end of the first track 210. A toothed structure 221 and a height limiting structure 222 are provided on the spiral track 223 near the end of the first track 210. It should be noted that the sealing cover 10 has a bowl-shaped structure. The toothed structure 221 is used to correct the orientation of the sealing cover 10 so that the bowl opening of the output sealing cover 10 faces upward. Thus, in conjunction with high-frequency vibration, the sealing cap 10 at the bottom of the tray will move upward along the spiral track 223. When the sealing cap 10 moves to the toothed structure 221, the sealing cap 10 with the opening facing upward can continue to move along the spiral track 223 and be output to the first track 210, while the sealing cap 10 with the opening facing downward will fall from the gap of the toothed structure 221 to the bottom of the tray for re-screening. The sealing cap 10 that successfully passes through the screening will pass through the height limiting structure 222. Since the height limiting structure 222 only allows a single sealing cap 10 to pass through, the stacked sealing caps 10 will be guided down the slope of the height limiting structure 222 and fall to the bottom of the tray for re-screening. Finally, the messy sealing caps 10 will be output to the first track 210 in an orderly manner after passing through the screening, and the sealing caps 10 will push the previous sealing cap 10 forward so that the sealing cap 10 can move to the left continuously in the first track 210.
[0049] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, the feeding mechanism 300 further includes a direct vibrator 320, which is mounted on the frame 100 and connected to the second track 310. The direct vibrator 320 is used to provide forward power to the sealing cover 10 on the second track 310.
[0050] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the feeding mechanism 300 also includes a linear vibrator 320, which is mounted on the frame 100. The linear vibrator 320 is connected to the second track 310, which is located above the linear vibrator 320. When the linear vibrator 320 converts mechanical energy into linear vibration energy, it transmits it to the second track 310. By providing continuous and stable linear vibration, it drives the movement of the sealing cover 10 on the second track 310. The second track 310 is connected to the first track 210 and the third track 410 respectively, but they do not contact each other, thereby avoiding interference from the linear vibrator 320 to the first track 210 and the third track 410, and also ensuring that the sealing cover 10 can be transported smoothly.
[0051] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, the avoidance mechanism 400 further includes: a bracket 430, which is fixedly connected to the lower end of the third track 410, the bracket 430 is arranged along the extension direction of the third track 410, and the bracket 430 spans the second track 310 and the third track 410; a first driving member 420, which is arranged on the frame 100, and is connected to the third track 410 through the bracket 430, and drives the bracket 430 to make the third track 410 move horizontally in a direction perpendicular to the third track 410.
[0052] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, the avoidance mechanism 400 further includes a limiting component 440, which is connected to the third track 410 and is used to limit the movement direction of the third track 410.
[0053] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the first driving member 420 and the limiting component 440 are both mounted on the frame 100. The limiting component 440 includes a slide rail and a slider. The slide rail is arranged in the front-back direction. The slide rail and the first driving member 420 are both located in front of the second track 310. A bracket 430 is provided at the lower end of the third track 410. The bracket 430 is fixedly connected to the first driving member 420 and the slider from right to left. Specifically, the bracket 430 extends in the left-right direction and spans the second track 310 and the third track 410. Thus, the first driving member 420 moves by driving the bracket 430. Under the drive of the bracket 430, the third track 410 moves stably in the front-back direction and its stable direction of movement is ensured by the limitation of the slide rail and the slider.
[0054] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, a first blocking part 311 is provided at the end of the second track 310 away from the first track 210, and a second blocking part 411 is provided at the end of the third track 410 close to the second track 310. The third track 410 is moved horizontally in a direction perpendicular to the third track 410. The input end of the third track 410 abuts against the first blocking part 311, and the second blocking part 411 abuts against the output end of the second track 310.
[0055] like Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, a first blocking part 311 is provided at the left end of the second track 310, located in front of the second track 310. A second blocking part 411 is provided at the right end of the third track 410, located behind the third track 410. Specifically, the first blocking part 311 includes a longitudinal ridge, a transverse ridge, and a reinforcing plate. The longitudinal ridge is arranged along the front-back direction, and the transverse ridge is arranged along the left-right direction. The reinforcing plate is connected to both the longitudinal and transverse ridges to form a stable triangular shape. Similarly, the second blocking part 411 also includes a longitudinal ridge, a transverse ridge, and a reinforcing plate. The longitudinal ridge is arranged along the front-back direction, and the transverse ridge is arranged along the left-right direction. The reinforcing plate is connected to both the longitudinal and transverse ridges to form a stable triangular shape. Therefore, when the first driving member 420 drives the third track 410 forward, the first blocking part 311 abuts against the input end of the third track 410 and blocks the sealing cover 10 on the third track 410 to prevent the sealing cover 10 from falling off the input end of the third track 410. Similarly, the second blocking part 411 also abuts against the output end of the second track 310 and blocks the sealing cover 10 on the second track 310 to prevent the sealing cover 10 from falling off the output end of the second track 310.
[0056] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, the pressing mechanism 500 includes: a support base 520, which is disposed on the frame 100 and is used to place the flywheel; a gripping assembly 530, which is disposed on the frame 100 and is used to grip the sealing cap 10; and a second driving member 540, which is disposed on the frame 100 and is connected to the gripping assembly 530 for driving the gripping assembly 530 to press the sealing cap 10 onto the flywheel.
[0057] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, a first mounting plate 531 is connected to a second driving member 540, which can drive the first mounting plate 531 to move vertically; a second mounting plate 532 is movably connected to the first mounting plate 531 via a third driving member 533, which can drive the second mounting plate 532 to move vertically relative to the first mounting plate 531; a fourth driving member 534 is provided at the upper end of the second mounting plate 532; a third mounting plate 535 is fixedly connected to the first mounting plate 531; a fixed seat 536 is provided at the lower end of the third mounting plate 535, which is connected to the fourth driving member 534, which can drive the fixed seat 536 to rotate relative to the second mounting plate 532; a plurality of pressing heads 510 are provided at the lower end of the fixed seat 536, which are evenly distributed around the circumference of the fixed seat 536.
[0058] like Figure 5As shown, the pressing mechanism 500 includes a support base 520, a gripping assembly 530, and a second drive component 540. The support base 520, the gripping assembly 530, and the second drive component 540 are all mounted on the frame 100. The second drive component 540, the gripping assembly 530, and the support base 520 are arranged sequentially from top to bottom. The gripping structure includes a first mounting plate 531, a second mounting plate 532, and a third mounting plate 535, which are arranged sequentially from top to bottom. The first mounting plate 531 is connected to a second driving member 540, which can drive the first mounting plate 531 to move up and down. The second mounting plate 532 is movably connected to the first mounting plate 531 through a third driving member 533, which can drive the second mounting plate 532 to move up and down relative to the first mounting plate 531. The third mounting plate 535 is fixedly connected to the first mounting plate 531. The second driving member 540 can drive the third mounting plate 535 to move in the up and down direction by driving the first mounting plate 531. Furthermore, a fixed seat 536 is provided at the lower end of the third mounting plate 535, and a fourth driving member 534 is provided on the second mounting plate 532. The fourth driving member 534 passes through the second mounting plate 532 and the third mounting plate 535 and is connected to the fixed seat 536 in a transmission manner. The fourth driving member 534 can drive the fixed seat 536 to rotate. Specifically, a plurality of pressing heads 510 are provided on the fixed seat 536, and the plurality of pressing heads 510 are arranged around the fixed seat 536.
[0059] The fourth driving component 534 drives the fixed base 536 to rotate, so that one of the pressing heads 510 aligns vertically with the sealing cover 10 in the limiting groove 412. The third driving component 533 drives the second mounting plate 532 to move downward relative to the first mounting plate 531, so that the pressing head 510 fits against the sealing cover 10 on the limiting groove 412. After the sealing cover 10 is picked up by the corresponding pressing head 510, the third driving component 533 drives the second mounting plate 532 to move upward, at which point a new sealing cover 10 is output into the limiting groove 412. Then the fourth driving component 534 drives the fixed base 536 to rotate again and repeats the above steps until all pressing heads 510 are connected to the sealing cover 10. At this time, the fourth driving component 534 drives the fixed base 536 to rotate until all pressing heads 510 are vertically aligned with the mounting holes on the flywheel.
[0060] Specifically, the number of pressing heads 510 corresponds to the number of flywheel mounting holes 20, and a permanent magnet is embedded at the lower end of each pressing head 510. The permanent magnet can attract the sealing cover 10 to the pressing head 510. In this specific embodiment, there are eight sealing covers 10 to be installed on the flywheel. Therefore, there are eight pressing heads 510. That is, the fourth driving member 534 needs to drive the fixing base 536 to rotate eight times so that all eight pressing heads 510 are connected to the sealing cover 10. Then, the eight pressing heads 510 are rotated to correspond one by one with the eight mounting holes on the flywheel. Finally, the second driving member 540 drives the first mounting plate 531 to press down, and the pressing heads 510 press the sealing cover 10 onto the flywheel mounting hole 20 to complete the pressing of the dual-mass flywheel sealing cover 10.
[0061] like Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, the pressing method of the sealing cap pressing device includes:
[0062] Step 1: Assemble the flywheel onto the support base 520 and place the sealing cover 10 into the vibrating screen 220;
[0063] Step 2: The vibrating screen 220 selects the sealing cover 10. The sealing cover 10, in conjunction with the high-frequency vibration, moves upward along the spiral pipe and is finally output to the first track 210 in an orderly manner through the toothed structure 221 with the opening facing upward.
[0064] Step 3: The sealing caps 10 push against each other in the channel limited by the first track 210 and enter the second track 310 set on the direct vibrator 320 through the first track 210. The direct vibrator 320 outputs the sealing caps 10 from the second track 310 to the third track 410 through linear vibration. Driven by the direct vibrator 320, the sealing caps 10 move towards the output end of the third track 410. When the sealing cap 10 at the front of the sealing cap 10 queue moves into the limiting groove 412, the sealing cap 10 queue stops moving.
[0065] Step 4: The fourth driving component 534 drives the fixed base 536 to rotate, so that one of the pressing heads 510 aligns vertically with the sealing cover 10 in the limiting groove 412. The third driving component 533 drives the second mounting plate 532 to move downward relative to the first mounting plate 531, so that the pressing head 510 fits against the sealing cover 10 on the limiting groove 412. The pressing head 510 uses a permanent magnet to attract the sealing cover 10 to its lower end. After the sealing cover 10 is attracted, the third driving component 533 drives the second mounting plate 532 to move upward relative to the first mounting plate 531. At this time, the sealing cover 10 queue begins to move again, and a new sealing cover 10 is output into the limiting groove 412.
[0066] Step 5: Repeat step 4 until all pressing heads 510 have attracted the sealing cap 10. Then, the fourth driving component 534 drives the fixed base 536 to rotate, so that all pressing heads 510 correspond to the mounting holes on the flywheel in the vertical direction.
[0067] Step 6: The first driving member 420 drives the third track 410 to move forward horizontally, so that the third track 410 is outside the range covered by the downward movement trajectory of the gripping component 530, thereby avoiding the gripping component 530 from colliding with the third track 410 during the downward pressing process. At this time, the first blocking part 311 abuts against the input end of the third track 410, and the second blocking part 411 abuts against the output end of the second track 310, so as to prevent the sealing cover 10 from falling from the input end of the third track 410 and the output end of the second track 310.
[0068] Step 7: The second drive unit 540 drives the gripping assembly 530 to move downward. When the sealing cover 10 contacts the flywheel, the second drive unit 540 transmits pressure to the fixed seat 536. The fixed seat 536 presses the sealing cover 10 into the flywheel mounting hole 20 through the pressing head 510. After the output pressure reaches the set value, the second drive unit 540 drives the gripping assembly 530 to move upward.
