Thus, on one hand, by placing the wire and functional components respectively in the first contouring groove of the first carrier and the second contouring groove of the second carrier, when the sixth actuator assembles the first and second carriers together, the first and second contouring grooves are positioned close to each other, allowing the wire end to pass through the outlet and extend onto the solder pad, ensuring the relative positional relationship between the wire end and the solder pad. On the other hand, at least a portion of the second contouring groove is offset from the first carrier, allowing the welding head of the welding mechanism to move towards the bottom of the second contouring groove, thereby welding the wire end and the solder pad together. This simplifies the welding process and improves the level of automation. Attached Figure Description

[0182] The present invention is described below based on embodiments, but the invention is not limited to these embodiments. In the detailed description of the invention below, certain specific details are described in detail. Those skilled in the art will fully understand the invention even without these details. To avoid obscuring the essence of the invention, well-known methods, processes, flows, elements, and circuits are not described in detail.

[0183] Furthermore, those skilled in the art should understand that the accompanying drawings provided herein are for illustrative purposes only and are not necessarily drawn to scale.

[0184] Unless the context explicitly requires it, words such as "including" or "contains" throughout the application should be interpreted as including rather than exclusive or exhaustive; that is, meaning "including but not limited to".

[0185] In the description of this invention, it should be understood that the terms "first," "second," etc., are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance. Furthermore, in the description of this invention, unless otherwise stated, "a plurality of" means two or more.

[0186] Unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "linking," and "fixing," etc., 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 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, unless otherwise expressly limited. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention according to the specific circumstances.

[0187] For ease of explanation, spatially related terms such as “inside,” “outside,” “below,” “below,” “lower,” “above,” “upper,” etc., are used herein to describe the relationship between one element or feature illustrated in the figure and another. It will be understood that spatially related terms may be intended to encompass different orientations of the device in use or operation besides those depicted in the figure. For example, if the device in the figure is flipped, an element described as “below” or “below” another element or feature would then be positioned “above” that other element or feature. Thus, the exemplified term “below” can encompass both above and below orientations. The device may be oriented in other ways (rotated 90 degrees or in other orientations), and the spatially related descriptive terms used herein should be interpreted accordingly.

The second vehicle 2, located at the bottom, has its second contouring groove 21 facing upwards. Furthermore, portions of the first contouring groove 12 and the second contouring groove 21 are offset from each other.

[0191] Figures 5-7 This is a structural illustration of the first carrier 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention. The first carrier 1 in the figure is provided with two first contouring grooves 12, which are arranged side by side. Each first contouring groove 12 is provided with multiple cable outlets 11. Figure 5 and Figure 6 A cover 17 is provided on the first carrier 14. The cover 17 includes a first cover body 17a and a second cover body 17b. The first cover body 17a and the second cover body 17b are rotatably connected, and the second cover body 17b is rotatably connected to the first carrier 14. The cover 17 can cover the first contour groove 12. At the same time, when the second cover body 17b is covering the first carrier 1, the first cover body 17a can be opened separately to expose the top surface of the forming section A4 to the outside.

[0192] In contrast, Figure 8 Only one second contour groove 21 of the second vehicle 2 is shown in the image.

[0193] Figure 9 This is a schematic diagram showing the positional relationship between the product and the first contoured groove 12 in this embodiment. In state Ia, wire A is not provided. In states Ib and Ic, wire A of different shapes is provided. In state Ib, the relative positional relationship between the heat insulation plate C73, the air inlet window 171, the air outlet window 146, and the conductor A5 is also shown with thick dashed lines; only a portion of conductor A5 is shown in the figure.

[0194] Figure 10 This is a schematic diagram of the shape of wire A in this embodiment, with the wire core A2 shown by a thick solid line. In state IIa, the wire A has not had its sheath A3 removed. In states IIb and IIc, part of the sheath A3 at the wire end A1 has been removed, exposing the wire core A2 outside the sheath A3. The left side of state IIc shows the shape of wire A after it has been bent.

[0195] Figure 11This is a schematic diagram of the system flow of the product assembly system in this embodiment. The diagram shows some of the equipment installed on the conveying component 3. The main conveying track 36 is shown with a thick solid line, the first return track 381 is shown with a dotted line, the second return track 382 is shown with a double-dotted line, and the unloading track 37 is shown with a thin solid line. The arrows in the diagram indicate the conveying direction of the conveying component 3.

[0196] The main conveyor track 36 in the diagram includes a shaping section 363, an assembly section 361, and a separation section 362 in the conveying direction. The shaping section 363 is equipped with multiple shaping mechanisms, multiple first workstations F1, and a flipping mechanism 6. The assembly section 361 is equipped with a third workstation F3, multiple glue-applying mechanisms E2, multiple welding mechanisms E1, a defective product collection station H1, a release mechanism 7, and a separation mechanism 5. The separation section 362 is equipped with a flipping mechanism 6, a lid-opening mechanism D1, and a lid-closing mechanism D2. The second return track 382 is also equipped with a second workstation F2, a material tray G1, a second positioning mechanism G2, a seventh transport mechanism 47, and an eighth transport mechanism 48.

[0197] The end of the separation section 362 (transfer endpoint) is adjacent to both the beginning of the first return track 381 (transfer starting point) and the beginning of the unloading track 37, and is equipped with a first transport mechanism 41 and a second transport mechanism 42. The end of the first return track 381 is adjacent to the first workstation F1. The beginning of the second return track 382 is adjacent to the end of the assembly section 361, and the end of the second return track 382 is adjacent to the beginning of the assembly section 361. A sixth transport mechanism 46 and a third transport mechanism 43 are respectively provided at both ends of the assembly section 361. Simultaneously, the first return track 381 has a fourth disconnection zone, and the shaping section 363 has a third disconnection zone. The third disconnection zone and the fourth disconnection zone intersect each other. A fourth transport mechanism 44 and a fifth transport mechanism 45 are also provided at this intersection. The fourth transport mechanism 44 is used to transport the first carrier 1 on the first return track 381, and the fifth transport mechanism 45 is used to transport the first carrier 1 in the shaping section 363.

[0198] Figure 21 States IIIa, IIIb, and IIIc represent different states of the first vehicle 1 when the first pawl 341 (thick dashed line) engages with the second pawl 351 (thick solid line) to move the first vehicle 1 in the first disconnection zone 33. The figure uses thick solid lines to show the approximate outline of the first vehicle 1 in the first position C6251, the second position C6252, and the third position C6253. Simultaneously, double-dotted lines indicate the positions of the stop bar C623 and the connecting block C626 that fixes the stop bar C623.

[0199] In some implementations, such as Figures 1-11 and Figures 46-47As shown, the product assembly system in this embodiment includes a welding mechanism E1, a sixth transport mechanism 46, a conveying assembly 3, and a carrier assembly. The welding mechanism E1 includes a welding head E11. The sixth transport mechanism 46 includes a sixth actuator 461. The conveying assembly 3 includes a main conveying track 36. The sixth transport mechanism 46 and the welding mechanism E1 are arranged sequentially along the conveying direction of the main conveying track 36.

[0200] The carrier assembly includes a first carrier 1 and a second carrier 2 arranged in pairs. The first carrier 1 has a first contoured groove 12 for setting product wire A, and the second carrier 2 has a second contoured groove 21 for setting product functional element B. The first contoured groove 12 has a wire outlet 11 on its side.

[0201] When the first carrier 1 and the second carrier 2 in this embodiment are detachably assembled together, the first contour groove 12 and the second contour groove 21 face the opposite side of the first carrier 1 and the second carrier 2, and at least part of the second contour groove 21 is offset from the first carrier 1 and adjacent to the outlet 11.

[0202] The sixth transport mechanism 46 is configured to pick up the passing first carrier 1, move it above the corresponding second carrier 2, and assemble it with the second carrier 2. The wire end A1 of wire A extends through the outlet 11 to the solder pad B1 of functional component B.

[0203] The welding mechanism E1 is configured to drive the welding head E11 to move toward the bottom of the second contour groove 21 on the passing carrier assembly and weld the wire end A1 and the pad B1.

[0204] In this embodiment, the functional element B of the product is disposed in the second contour groove 21, and the wire A of the product is disposed in the first contour groove 12. The wire end A1 of the wire A passes through the outlet 11 and extends to the outside of the first carrier 1 and is fixedly connected to the functional element B. Thus, the wire end A1 is exposed to the outside of the first carrier 1 and extends into the position of the solder pad B1 of the functional element B, so that the soldering mechanism E1 can solder the wire end A1 to the solder pad B1 together.

[0205] Specifically, an adhesive application mechanism E2 is provided before the welding mechanism E1. The adhesive application mechanism E2 applies fixing adhesive to the wire end A1 and the solder pad B1 to fix the wire A and the functional component B together. In this embodiment, the welding method of the welding mechanism E1 is pulse heating reflow soldering. When the soldering head E11 comes into contact with the wire end A1 and the solder pad B1, a certain amount of pulse voltage is applied to the soldering head E11, causing it to heat up rapidly, thereby melting the solder at the positions of the wire end A1 and the solder pad B1. After the solder solidifies, the wire end A1 and the solder pad B1 are connected together.

[0206] In summary, the product assembly system of this embodiment arranges the sixth conveying mechanism 46 and the welding mechanism E1 sequentially along the main conveyor track 36, and utilizes the sixth conveying mechanism 46 to transport the carrier assembly composed of the first carrier 1 and the second carrier 2. Thus, on one hand, by placing the wire A and the functional element B in the first contouring groove 12 of the first carrier 1 and the second contouring groove 21 of the second carrier 2 respectively, when the sixth actuator 461 assembles the first carrier 1 and the second carrier 2 together, the first contouring groove 12 and the second contouring groove 21 are positioned close to each other, allowing the wire end A1 to pass through the outlet 11 and extend onto the solder pad B1, ensuring the relative positional relationship between the wire end A1 and the solder pad B1. On the other hand, at least a portion of the second contouring groove 21 is offset from the first carrier 1, and the welding head E11 of the welding mechanism E1 moves towards the bottom of the second contouring groove 21, thereby welding the wire end A1 and the solder pad B1 together. This simplifies the welding process and improves the level of automation.

[0207] In some implementations, such as Figures 1-11 and Figures 46-47 As shown, the product assembly system in this embodiment also includes multiple shaping mechanisms for shaping the thread end A1.

[0208] The main conveyor track 36 includes a shaping section 363 and an assembly section 361 spaced apart in its extending direction. The shaping section 363 conveys the first carrier 1 sequentially through multiple shaping mechanisms, with the first contouring groove 12 facing upwards. The assembly section 361 conveys the carrier assembly through the welding mechanism E1, with the first contouring groove 12 facing downwards. When the product is conveyed in the shaping section 363, it sequentially passes through multiple shaping mechanisms, which are used to perform processes such as cutting, straightening, or bending on the wire A.

[0209] The conveying assembly 3 also includes at least one flipping mechanism 6. The flipping mechanism 6 includes a third rotary driver 61 and multiple pairs of positioning arms 62. The driving end of the third rotary driver 61 drives the multiple pairs of positioning arms 62 to swing. The two pairs of positioning arms 62 are spaced apart and form a receiving area 63 on opposite sides. The receiving area 63 has an open end 631.

[0210] One of the flipping mechanisms 6 and the sixth conveying mechanism 46 are located between the forming section 363 and the assembly section 361 (e.g.) Figure 46 (As shown). The flipping mechanism 6 is configured such that the orientation of the opening end 631 is opposite to the conveying direction of the shaping section 363, which conveys the first carrier 1 to the receiving area 63. The third rotary drive 61 reverses the orientation of the opening end 631 to flip the first contouring groove 12.

[0211] In this embodiment, the flipping mechanism 6 is used to change the orientation of the first contour groove 12 of the first carrier 1. That is, it flips from facing upward to facing downward so that when the sixth conveying mechanism 46 picks up the first carrier 1, it can be moved directly above the second carrier 2 and assembled with the second carrier 2 to form a carrier assembly.

[0212] In some implementations, such as Figures 1-10 and Figures 34-40 As shown, the multiple shaping mechanisms include the bending mechanism C8.

[0213] In this embodiment, the first carrier 1 has a cable outlet 11. The cable outlet 11 is located on the side of the first carrier 1, and the wire A is disposed on the first carrier 1. The forming section A4 of the wire A extends out from the cable outlet 11. The forming section A4 includes a bent section A41 and a wire end A1.

[0214] The bending mechanism C8 includes a positioning component C81 and a pressing component C82. The positioning component C81 includes a positioning table C83, which includes a pad C831 and a forming block C832. The forming block C832 protrudes from the top of the pad C831 and has a forming surface C833 on its side. The pressing component C82 includes a pressing part C84, which includes a roller C841 corresponding to the forming surface C833. The forming surface C833 is an arc surface adjacent to the outlet 11 (e.g., ...). Figure 14 (as shown by the cross-section in the image)

[0215] Figure 40 This is a schematic diagram of the working state of the bending mechanism C8 in this embodiment. The left and right sides of states IIIa, IIIb and IIIc correspond to different working stages of the bending mechanism C8, and the right side of each state is the next working stage of the left side. The figure also uses dashed lines and arrows to show the motion trajectory and rotation direction of the roller C841.

[0216] Further reference Figure 40 As shown in state Ⅲa, the bending mechanism C8 is configured to drive the roller C841 and the positioning table C83 to move to the outlet 11, so that the outlet 11 is lateral to the forming block C832 and adjacent to the top of the pad C831. The roller C841 and the corresponding forming surface C833 are located on both sides of the outlet 11, and the forming section A4 extends along the top of the pad C831.

[0217] In this configuration, the roller C841 and the positioning table C83 move to an outlet 11 to bend the wire end A1 in the outlet 11. The wire A5 extends through the outlet 11 to the top of the pad C831. That is, the pad C831 is used to support the wire A5 and prevent the wire A5 from bending downwards towards the first carrier 1. At the same time, the wire end A1 is positioned between the roller C841 and the forming surface C833 so that when the roller C841 and the forming surface C833 come close to each other, the wire end A1 is clamped between them.

[0218] Further reference Figure 40 As shown in state Ⅲb, the pressure assembly C82 is configured to drive the roller C841 to press the bent section A41 against the forming block C832. The roller C841 moves toward the side of the outlet 11 closer to the forming block C832 and rolls the bent section A41 along the forming surface C833.

[0219] Preferably, in this embodiment, the roller C841 can be disposed at the end of the drive arm C842, and the roller C841 can rotate freely relative to the drive arm C842. When the drive arm C842 drives the roller C841 to move around the forming block C832, the roller C841 can roll laterally along the forming section A4, thereby causing the curved section A41 to coil around the forming surface C833 and the thread end A1 to extend towards the side of the forming block C832 away from the forming surface C833.

[0220] During this process, the roller C841 applies a force to the forming block C832 to ensure that part of the forming segment A4 can fit together with the forming block C832. To this end, the positioning table C83 can be set to remain stationary during the rolling process of the roller C841 to prevent the positioning table C83 from shaking relative to the wire outlet 11, which would prevent the bending mechanism C8 from bending the forming segment A4 to the predetermined shape.

[0221] In this embodiment, the bending mechanism C8 places wire A on the first carrier 1, allowing the forming section A4 to extend from the outlet 11. Simultaneously, the positioning table C83 and the roller C841 are configured to move relative to the outlet 11, so that the forming section A4 is positioned on top of the pad C831 and distributed between the roller C841 and the forming surface C833. Thus, as the roller C841 approaches the forming surface C833, the bending section A41 can be held between them. As the roller C841 moves towards the other side of the outlet 11, it can coil the bending section A41 around the forming block C832, causing the wire end A1 to extend laterally towards the outlet 11. This achieves the bending operation of the bending section A41, improves the automation level of the wire A bending process, and meets the accuracy requirements for the shape of the formed section A4 after bending.

[0222] In some implementations, such as Figures 34-40As shown, the forming block C832 has a clearance surface C834 on its side. The clearance surface C834 is located on the side of the forming block C832 away from the outlet 11 and is connected to the forming surface C833. The roller C841 rolls around a portion of the periphery of the forming block C832, and the clearance surface C834 avoids the roller C841 and corresponds to the thread end A1.

[0223] Figure 40 The left-hand area in state Ⅲc illustrates a specific movement pattern of roller C841. In this configuration, roller C841 is located at the junction of forming surface C833 and clearance surface C834. The bent section A41 is already coiled around the forming surface C833. Therefore, the pressing part C84 drives roller C841 to move linearly to the right to prevent roller C841 from pressing against the thread end A1, which would cause the thread core A2 to bend and deform. Conversely, the side of clearance surface C834 away from the forming surface C833 tilts away from the positioning table C83, thus avoiding the thread end A1.

[0224] Furthermore, such as Figure 40 As shown in the right-hand region of section IIIc, the positioning stage C83 is operably movable horizontally relative to the outlet 11. Simultaneously, the positioning component C81 is configured such that after the curved section A41 is coiled around the forming surface C833, the forming block C832 moves horizontally away from the forming surface C833 to separate from the curved section A41.

[0225] Preferably, further refer to Figure 37 As shown, after the molding block C832 is completely separated from the molding section A4, the positioning component C81 drives the positioning stage C83 to move downwards from the first carrier 1, thereby resetting the pressure component C82.

[0226] It is easy to understand that after the forming segment A4 is coiled around the forming block C832, the bent segment A41 will fit tightly against the forming block C832. If the positioning stage C83 is directly driven to move downward, the forming segment A4 will shift as the forming block C832 moves. That is, the wire end A1 will rotate in the circumferential direction of the wire outlet 11, preventing the forming segment A4 from extending horizontally. Therefore, in this embodiment, the positioning stage C83 is first moved horizontally, and after the forming block C832 separates from the bent segment A41, it moves downward to completely detach from the first carrier 1.

[0227] Figure 41 This is a schematic diagram of the wire-picking mechanism C9 in this embodiment. Figure 42 This is an exploded view of the wire-pulling mechanism C9 in this embodiment. Figure 43 This is a schematic diagram of the working state of the wire-picking mechanism C9 in this embodiment. Figure 43 State IVa, state IVb, and state IVc are different stages in which the wire-pulling mechanism C9 moves the conductor A5.

[0228] In some implementations, such as Figures 1-10 and Figures 41-43 As shown, the first carrier 1 includes a first platform 14. The first platform 14 has a main cable groove 144, a first cable outlet groove 141, and a second cable outlet groove 142. One end of the first cable outlet groove 141 and the second cable outlet groove 142 communicates with the main cable groove 144, and the other end of each extends to the edge of the first platform 14 to form at least a partial cable outlet 11. The second cable outlet groove 142 is located away from the main cable groove 144 relative to the first cable outlet groove 141.

[0229] The product assembly system also includes a wire-picking mechanism C9 and a conveying assembly 3. The wire-picking mechanism C9 includes a fourth clamping part C91. The conveying assembly 3 is configured to convey multiple first carriers 1 sequentially through the wire-picking mechanism C9 and the wire-bending mechanism C8. That is, in the conveying direction of the shaping section 363, the wire-picking mechanism C9 is located in front of the wire-bending mechanism C8.

[0230] The wire-pulling mechanism C9 is configured to drive the fourth clamping part C91 to clamp the wire end A1, move the conductor A5 of the wire A from the first outlet groove 141 to the second outlet groove 142, and move it away from the first carrier 1, pulling the formed section A4 out of the first carrier 1. The wire A includes a wire bundle A6 disposed in the main wire groove 144 and multiple conductors A5 constituting the wire bundle A6, with the formed section A4 located at the end of each conductor A5 away from the wire bundle A6.

[0231] Specifically, in this embodiment, the wire harness A6 consists of multiple wires A5 and is covered with a protective sleeve on the outside. In this embodiment, the first wire outlet groove 141 is located on one side of the second wire outlet groove 142, and the first wire outlet groove 141 and the second wire outlet groove 142 are located at the same end of the main wire groove 144. The multiple wires A5 extend from the main wire groove 144 into the first wire outlet groove 141.

[0232] Optionally, such as Figure 10 As shown in states IIa and IIb, the product assembly system in this embodiment also includes a cutting mechanism C1 and a stripping mechanism C5. The cutting mechanism C1 can cut multiple thread ends A1, making the ends of the thread ends A1 flush. The stripping mechanism C5 can peel off the insulation A3 at the location of the thread end A1 to expose the wire core A2. During the processing of the thread end A1, the thread end A1 extends from the outlet 11 of the first carrier 1 and remains suspended. When the thread end A1 located outside the outlet 11 is too long, the thread end A1, due to its flexibility, will bend downwards towards the first carrier 1, making it difficult to guarantee the processing accuracy of the cutting mechanism C1 and the stripping mechanism C5.

[0233] Therefore, in this embodiment, during the above-described process, the wire end A1 is placed in the first wire outlet groove 141 to reduce the protruding length of the wire end A1 (e.g., Figure 10(As shown by the dashed line Ⅱb1), thus ensuring that the wire head A1 extends in a straight line outside the outlet 11.

[0234] After the wire A5 moves from the first outlet groove 141 to the second outlet groove 142, in order to fully expose the forming section A4 to the outside of the outlet 11, this embodiment also drives the fourth clamping part C91 to move a predetermined distance to the outside of the outlet 11, thereby pulling the wire A5 to the outside of the first carrier 1 so that the bending mechanism C8 can bend the forming section A4.

[0235] In some implementations, such as Figures 1-10 and Figures 41-43 As shown, the first platform 14 has a third cable outlet groove 143, which corresponds to the main cable outlet groove 144 and extends in the same direction.

[0236] The second cable outlet 142 extends in a straight line and is located between the first cable outlet 141 and the third cable outlet 143. The cable outlet 11 of the second cable outlet 142 is far away from the third cable outlet 143 relative to the end of the second cable outlet 142 that is closer to the main cable outlet 144.

[0237] The wire-picking mechanism C9 also includes a fourth rotary driver C92. The driving end of the fourth rotary driver C92 drives the fourth clamping part C91 to swing.

[0238] The wire pulling mechanism C9 is also configured to drive the fourth clamping part C91 to rotate at a predetermined angle toward the third wire outlet groove 143 and pull the wire end A1 away from the second wire outlet groove 142, so as to adapt the wire A5 to the extension direction of the second wire outlet groove 142.

[0239] In this embodiment, the conductor A5 includes multiple first conductors A5 and one second conductor A5. The multiple first conductors A5 are disposed in multiple first outlet slots 141, and the second conductor A5 is disposed in a third outlet slot 143. The extension direction of the second conductor A5 is consistent with the extension direction of the wire harness A6.

[0240] Preferably, in this embodiment, the wire-picking mechanism C9 includes multiple drivers, which can drive the fourth clamping part C91 to move relative to the wire outlet 11, so as to move the wire A5 (e.g., Figure 42(As indicated by arrows b1, b2, b3, and b4). This movement can include the following steps: First, the fourth clamping part C91 clamps the wire end A1 and moves upward (arrow b2), thereby lifting the wire A5. Second, the wire end A1 is moved horizontally towards the second outlet groove 142 (arrow b3), and the fourth clamping part C91 is rotated towards the first outlet groove 141 (arrow b1). Next, the wire A5 is pulled so that the extension direction of the wire A5 is parallel to the extension direction of the second outlet groove 142. Third, the fourth clamping part C91 is moved downward so that the wire A5 enters the second outlet groove 142. Finally, the fourth clamping part C91 is rotated in the opposite direction so that the orientation of the wire end A1 is consistent with the orientation of the wire end A1 in the third outlet groove 143.

[0241] In this embodiment, the fourth rotary actuator C92 ensures that the extension direction of the wire A5 is aligned with the extension direction of the second outlet groove 142, allowing the wire A5 to be inserted into the first platform 14 from the top of the second outlet groove 142. Simultaneously, as... Figure 43 As shown in states IVb and IVc, after the wire trough is replaced, the shaped section A4 of the wire A5 can be fully exposed outside the outlet 11.

[0242] Preferably, such as Figure 8 As shown in state Ia, the first carrier 14 is provided with an air duct 145. The first cable outlet duct 141, the second cable outlet duct 142, and the second cable outlet duct 143 are located on the same side of the air duct 145 and are connected to the main cable duct 144 through the air duct 145. The first carrier 1 also includes a first cover 17a, on which an air inlet 171 is provided. The first cover 17a covers the air duct 145 and the air inlet 171 is connected to the air duct 145. When the cable A is placed on the first carrier 1, the first conductor A5 and the second conductor A5 simultaneously pass through the air duct 145 and enter the first cable outlet duct 141 and the third cable outlet duct 143.

[0243] The product assembly system also includes a baking mechanism C7, which blows hot air into the air duct 145 through the air inlet 171 to heat the wire A5 in that area. The wire sheath A3 in that area is heated and then hugs the wire core A2.

[0244] Therefore, on the one hand, the air groove 145 in this embodiment can be used to accommodate multiple wires A5, allowing the wires A5 to pass through the wire bundle A6 into the corresponding outlet 11. On the other hand, after the hot air filling air groove 145 heats the wires A5, it can prevent the wire sheath A3 from shifting relative to the wire core A2 when processing the wire end A1. Especially when the bending mechanism C8 bends the forming section A4, it can prevent the wire sheath A3 of the outer wire A5 from shrinking more than that of the inner wire A5 due to its larger bending radius, thus avoiding the situation where the exposed length of the wire core A2 at the two wire end A1 positions is inconsistent.

[0245] In some implementations, such as Figures 6-9 As shown, the first carrier 1 has a plurality of first contouring slots 12. The plurality of first contouring slots 12 are arranged at intervals, and each first contouring slot 12 includes two first cable outlet slots 141, two second cable outlet slots 142, a third cable outlet slot 143 and a main cable slot 144.

[0246] Further reference Figures 35-39 As shown, the positioning component C81 includes a first drive block C851 and a second drive block C852. There are multiple positioning stages C83, which are respectively disposed on the first drive block C851 and the second drive block C852.

[0247] Multiple positioning stages C83 form multiple pairs of positioning stages C83, and the multiple pairs of positioning stages C83 are respectively set in one-to-one correspondence with multiple first contouring grooves 12, and each pair of positioning stages C83 corresponds to two second outgoing grooves 142 in the corresponding first contouring groove 12.

[0248] The positioning component C81 is configured to drive multiple pairs of positioning stages C83 to move synchronously via the first drive block C851 and the second drive block C852. Therefore, when the number of first contouring grooves 12 is large, the driving method of the bending mechanism C8 can be simplified, and the efficiency of the bending mechanism C8 in bending wire A can be improved.

[0249] Furthermore, the two first wire exit grooves 141 in the first contour groove 12 are located on both sides of the third wire exit groove 143. The two forming surfaces C833 of each pair of positioning stages C83 are opposite to each other and symmetrically arranged with respect to the third wire exit groove 143.

[0250] The wire crimping assembly C82 also includes a third drive block C853 and a fourth drive block C854 (e.g., Figure 35 and Figure 36 (As shown). There are multiple pressing sections C84, which are respectively set in the third drive block C853 and the fourth drive block C854. Multiple rollers C841 form multiple pairs of rollers C841 that correspond one-to-one with multiple pairs of positioning tables C83.

[0251] The bending mechanism C8 is configured to drive the two positioning stages C83 of each pair of positioning stages C83 away from the third outlet groove 143, and drive the two rollers C841 of each pair of rollers C841 to approach the third outlet groove 143 via the third drive block C853 and the fourth drive block C854, so as to bend the two bending segments A41 in opposite directions.

[0252] Figure 9The figure shows a specific bending form of wire A. The wire A5 located in the third exit groove 143 extends in a straight line, while the two wires A5 located in the second exit groove 142 bend towards the middle region. Therefore, in this embodiment, the positioning platform C83 and the pressing part C84 located on one side of the plurality of first contour grooves 12 are synchronously driven by the first driving block C851 and the third driving block C853, respectively. The positioning platform C83 and the pressing part C84 located on the other side of the plurality of first contour grooves 12 are synchronously driven by the second driving block C852 and the fourth driving block C854, respectively. This simplifies the driving method of the bending mechanism C8, making it easier to control the movement accuracy of the forming block C832 and the roller C841.

[0253] Figure 36 The diagram illustrates one specific driving configuration of the positioning component C81. The linear actuator at the top of the diagram can be driven horizontally (arrow b5), thereby causing the first driving block C851 and the second driving block C852 to move away from each other. Simultaneously, after the linear actuator resets, the two positioning stages C83 can also be reset by the force of two springs. The linear actuator at the top of the diagram can also be driven horizontally (arrow b6), thereby causing the first driving block C851 and the second driving block C852 to move vertically.

[0254] Figure 38 The diagram illustrates one specific drive configuration for the creasing assembly C82. The upper and lower linear actuators in the diagram can respectively drive the drive arm C842 to move laterally (arrow b8) and longitudinally (arrow b7). Thus, the cooperation of the two linear actuators allows the roller C841 to move circumferentially along the forming surface C833.

[0255] In some implementations, such as Figures 1-10 and Figures 15-21 As shown, the product assembly system of this embodiment includes multiple first carriers 1, a material application mechanism C6, and a conveying assembly 3. Each first carrier 1 has multiple cable outlets 11. The multiple cable outlets 11 are located on the same side of the first carrier 1, and wire A is disposed on the first carrier 1 with multiple wire ends A1 extending from the multiple cable outlets 11.

[0256] The flux feeding mechanism C6 includes a feeding section C61 and a tilting section C62. The feeding section C61 includes a first hopper C611 for containing flux and a second hopper C612 for containing solder. The tilting section C62 includes a positioning head C621 and a swing arm C622. The positioning head C621 includes a stop bar C623 and a support plate C624. The stop bar C623 and the support plate C624 are spaced apart and form a slide rail C625 on opposite sides. The slide rail C625 has a first position C6251 and a second position C6252 corresponding to the first hopper C611 and the second hopper C612 in its extending direction. The positioning head C621 is disposed on the swing arm C622.

[0257] The transmission component 3 is configured to transmit each first vehicle 1 intermittently through the first position C6251 and the second position C6252.

[0258] The flipping unit C62 is configured to drive the positioning head C621 to oscillate intermittently between the feeding unit C61 and the conveying assembly 3. When the positioning head C621 moves to the feeding unit C61, multiple wire ends A1 of wire A extend into the corresponding first hopper C611 and second hopper C612 to pick up flux and solder, respectively. The wire core A2 at the end of the wire end A1 is exposed outside the wire sheath A3. The positioning head C621 moves to the conveying assembly 3, which conveys the first carrier 1 from the first position C6251 to the second position C6252.

[0259] Specifically, in this embodiment, the flipping part C62 oscillates between the conveying assembly 3 and the feeding part C61 at a predetermined frequency. Correspondingly, the conveying assembly 3 also coordinates with the oscillation of the flipping part C62, performing a flipping operation on the two first carriers 1 at a predetermined frequency. That is, the conveying assembly 3 is configured to convey the first carriers 1 when the flipping part C62 approaches. When the flipping part C62 moves away from the conveying assembly 3, the conveying of the first carriers 1 to the flipping part C62 stops.

[0260] Specifically, when the flipping part C62 approaches, the conveying assembly 3 moves the first carrier 1 located in front of the positioning head C621 to the first position C6251, and then moves the first carrier 1 at the first position C6251 to the second position C6252. Simultaneously, the first carrier 1 at the second position C6252 is conveyed to the rear of the positioning head C621. When the positioning head C621 moves from the conveying assembly 3 to the feeding part C61, the flipping part C62 can apply flux to the wire end A1 at the first position C6251 and solder to the wire end A1 at the second position C6252. In this configuration, the wire end A1 at the second position C6252 has already been coated with flux when it was at the first position C6251. Therefore, both flux and solder can be applied to it simultaneously. The flux can be a rosin resin-based flux, used to dissolve the oxide layer on the wire core A2 at the wire end A1 position and reduce the surface tension of the solder. The solder can be solder.

[0261] In summary, the product assembly system of this embodiment utilizes the conveying component 3 to transport multiple first carriers 1 through the first position C6251 and the second position C6252, and uses the flipping part C62 to move the two first carriers 1 located at the first position C6251 and the second position C6252 closer to the feeding part C61 to perform a coating operation on the wire end A1. Thus, on the one hand, the positioning head C621 positions the two first carriers 1, and when the positioning head C621 moves to the first hopper C611 and the second hopper C612, the length of flux and solder inserted into the wire end A1 can be controlled to ensure the coating amount. This improves the soldering process between the wire end A1 and the solder pad B1. On the other hand, in one swing of the flipping part C62, the wire A of both first carriers 1 can be coated simultaneously, improving coating efficiency. Furthermore, the stop bar C623 and the support plate C624 form a slide C625, which facilitates the conveying component 3 to transport multiple first carriers 1 onto it. At the same time, during the flipping process of the flipping part C62, the first vehicle 1 can be prevented from falling off the flipping part C62.

[0262] Preferably, such as Figure 15 and Figure 22 As shown, the flux-dipping mechanism C6 also includes a first solder scraping section C63, a second solder scraping section C64, a solder pot C65, a flux tank, and multiple cylinders. In this embodiment, the cylinders can drive the first hopper C611 and the second hopper C612 to move up and down, thereby scooping flux and solder from the flux tank and the solder pot C65, respectively. The first scraper C631 of the first solder scraping section C63 can move along the width direction of the second hopper C612 under the drive of the cylinder, and the second scraper C641 of the second solder scraping section C64 can move along the length direction of the second hopper C612 under the drive of the cylinder. At the same time, the first scraper C631 and the second scraper C641 can also move up and down synchronously with the second hopper C612.

[0263] In this embodiment, the solder in the solder pot C65 is in liquid form, i.e., solder paste. An oxide layer will form on the surface of this solder paste, which is detrimental to the soldering process. Simultaneously, the solder paste scooped by the second hopper C612 has a certain viscosity, meaning the liquid level of the solder paste may be higher than the top of the second hopper C612. Therefore, this embodiment provides a first scraper C631 and a second scraper C641, which can scrape off the oxide layer of the solder paste above the second hopper C612 while ensuring that the liquid level of the solder paste is consistent with the top height of the second hopper C612. During the process of multiple first carriers 1 sequentially picking up solder, the consistency of the solder-picking height of the wire end A1 can be guaranteed.

[0264] In some implementations, such as Figures 15-21As shown, the conveying assembly 3 includes a pair of first slide rails 31 and second slide rails 32. The first slide rails 31 and second slide rails 32 have a first break zone 33 in their extending directions. The positioning head C621 moves to the conveying assembly 3, the support plate C624 moves to the first break zone 33, and the extending directions of the first slide rails 31 and second slide rails 32 coincide with the extending direction of the slide rail C625.

[0265] Preferably, in this embodiment, when the positioning head C621 moves to the conveying component 3, the carrier plate C624 is in a horizontal state (e.g., Figure 16 and Figure 17 (As shown). In this configuration, the two sides of the support plate C624 are respectively engaged with the first slide rail 31 and the second slide rail 32 to facilitate the transfer of the first carrier 1 between the conveying assembly 3 and the support plate C624. When the positioning head C621 moves to the feeding section C61, in this configuration, the support plate C624 is in a vertical position (as shown). Figure 18 (As shown). In this configuration, the outlet 11 of the first carrier 1 faces the bottom of the first hopper C611 and the second hopper C612, so that the wire end A1 can extend into the dip material.

[0266] In some implementations, such as Figures 19-21 As shown, the conveying assembly 3 also includes a first actuating part 34. The first actuating part 34 includes a first pawl 341, which extends toward the slide rail C625 and actuates the first carrier 1 along the conveying direction of the conveying assembly 3.

[0267] The first actuating part 34 is configured to move the positioning head C621 to the conveying assembly 3, actuating the first carrier 1 at the second position C6252 to the conveying assembly 3. Simultaneously, it actuates the first carrier 1, which has passed through the first position C6251, to the second position C6252. Thus, the first actuating part 34 provides power for the conveying of the first carrier 1, allowing the first carrier 1 located in the first disconnection zone 33 to sequentially pass through the first position C6251 and the second position C6252.

[0268] In some implementations, such as Figures 19-21 As shown, slide C625 has a third position C6253, which is located between the first position C6251 and the second position C6252.

[0269] The positioning head C621 also includes a connecting block C626. ​​The stop bar C623 is fixedly connected to the support plate C624 via the connecting block C626. ​​The first carrier 1 is located in the third position C6253, with at least a portion of the first carrier 1 situated between the connecting block C626 and the second position C6252. The first pawl 341 is operably movable to the third position C6253 and adjacent to the side of the connecting block C626 closest to the second position C6252. Figure 21State IIIc shows the first vehicle 1 in the third position C6253. A portion of the first vehicle 1 is located between the stop bar C623 and the second position C6252.

[0270] The transmission assembly 3 also includes a second actuating part 35. The second actuating part 35 includes a second pawl 351, which actuates the first carrier 1 along the transmission direction of the transmission assembly 3. Figure 19 The image shows the specific positions of the second pawl 351 and the first pawl 341. The second pawl 351 moves the first vehicle 1 forward from the bottom of the first vehicle 1, and the first actuating part 34 moves the first vehicle 1 forward from the top of the first vehicle 1.

[0271] like Figure 21 As shown in states IIIb and IIIc, the conveying assembly 3 is configured such that the positioning head C621 moves to the conveying assembly 3, and the second pawl 351 actuates the first carrier 1 on the conveying assembly 3 to move the first carrier 1 from the first position C6251 to the third position C6253, and the first pawl 341 actuates the first carrier 1 from the third position C6253 to the second position C6252. This avoids interference between the second pawl 351 and the connecting block C626 located above the support plate C624, allowing the first carrier 1 to pass through the slide rail C625.

[0272] Optionally, such as Figure 19 As shown, the first pawl 341 and the second pawl 351 are wedge-shaped blocks, each with an inclined surface and a vertical surface. The inclined surface faces the transmission assembly 3 and is inclined in the opposite direction to the transmission of the transmission assembly 3. The wedge-shaped block abuts against the spring. When the first pawl 341 and the second pawl 351 move in the opposite direction to the transmission of the transmission assembly 3, the inclined surface abuts against the first carrier 1 and then moves away from the first carrier 1. When the first pawl 341 and the second pawl 351 move forward, the vertical surface can push the first carrier 1 forward. The first pawl 341 and the second pawl 351 are mounted on multiple nuts of the ball screw so that the reciprocating motion of the nuts causes the first pawl 341 and the second pawl 351 to sequentially move the first carrier 1 forward.

[0273] Preferably, Figure 5 and Figure 6 Regions a1 and a2 are shown in the diagram. Region a1 is located on the top of the first vehicle 1, which facilitates the first pawl 341 to move the first vehicle 1 from the top. Region a2 is located on the bottom edge of the first vehicle 1, which facilitates the second pawl 351 to move the first vehicle 1 from the bottom.

[0274] Optionally, such as Figure 19As shown, the first actuating part 34 in this embodiment includes two linear actuators, which are stacked and their driving ends face the same direction. The bottom linear actuator can drive the top linear actuator to move linearly, thereby increasing the movement speed of the first pawl 341. Further referring to... Figure 21 As shown, from state IIIa to state IIIb, the first pawl 341 moves the first carrier 1 at the second position C6252 to the rear side of the first disconnection zone 33. This process can be performed using only the linear actuator located at the top. From state IIIb to state IIIc, the first pawl 341 needs to move a longer distance; therefore, two linear actuators can be activated simultaneously to increase the moving speed of the first pawl 341.

[0275] It is easy to understand that during the process of the flipping part C62 flipping towards the feeding part C61, the second pawl 351 located in front of the first disconnection zone 33 can move forward at the same time to move another first carrier 1. After the flipping part C62 is reset, the first carrier 1 located in the first position C6251 can be directly pushed through the first carrier 1 to improve the conveying efficiency of the conveying component 3.

[0276] Preferably, such as Figure 20 As shown, the bottom of the support plate C624 has a notch 18 facing the opposite direction to the conveying assembly 3, so as to prevent the second pawl 351 from colliding with the support plate C624 when it moves toward the first disconnection zone 33.

[0277] In some implementations, such as Figure 6 and Figures 17-20 As shown, the first carrier 1 includes a slider 13, and a plurality of cable outlets 11 are located above the slider 13.

[0278] The flipping part C62 also includes a plurality of elastic damping elements 81. The support plate C624 has a guide groove C627 facing the stop bar C623, and the slider 13 is slidably disposed in the guide groove C627. The guide groove C627 has a first guide surface C6271 and a second guide surface C6272. The second guide surface C6272 has two receiving grooves 82 located at the first position C6251 and the second position C6252, respectively, and the two elastic damping elements 81 are respectively disposed in the two receiving grooves 82 and extend into the guide groove C627.

[0279] In the first position C6251 and the second position C6252, one side of the slider 13 abuts against the elastic damping member 81, and the other side abuts against the first guide surface C6271. Furthermore, in the width direction of the support plate C624, the end A1 of the wire A extends to the outer side of the support plate C624 (such as one edge of the support plate C624). Figure 10 (As shown by the dashed line Ⅱb1).

[0280] It is easy to understand that in this embodiment, the slider 13 has a gap with the first guide surface C6271 and the second guide surface C6272 to ensure that the first carrier 1 can slide in the slide rail C625. The elastic damping element 81 in this embodiment can decelerate the first carrier 1 when it passes by, preventing the first carrier 1 from failing to stop in time due to its own inertia. At the same time, the elastic damping element 81 can also push the first carrier 1 towards the first guide surface C6271, ensuring the extension length of the wire end A1 relative to the edge of the bearing plate C624. When the positioning head C621 drives the wire end A1 into the first hopper C611 and the second hopper C612, it can further ensure the material adhesion length of the wire end A1 (e.g., ...). Figure 10 (as shown in the dashed box in the image).

[0281] In some implementations, such as Figure 17 As shown, the conveying assembly 3 includes a plurality of the aforementioned elastic damping elements 81. The second slide rail 32 has a plurality of receiving slots 82, and the plurality of elastic damping elements 81 are correspondingly disposed in the plurality of receiving slots 82 and extend one end toward the first slide rail 31.

[0282] The product assembly system also includes multiple shaping mechanisms. These mechanisms are configured one-to-one with the multiple receiving slots 82 on the second slide rail 32 and are located on the side of the first slide rail 31 furthest from the second slide rail 32. The first carrier 1 passes through each shaping mechanism in sequence. One side of the slider 13 abuts against the elastic damping member 81, and the other side abuts against the first slide rail 31. Multiple cable outlets 11 extend a predetermined distance towards each shaping mechanism.

[0283] In this embodiment, multiple shaping mechanisms include, but are not limited to, a stripping mechanism C5, a wire pulling mechanism C2, and a wire twisting mechanism C3. Through the cooperation of the elastic damping element 81 and the slider 13, the consistency of the extension amplitude of the wire end A1 is ensured when the first carrier 1 moves to the aforementioned shaping mechanisms. Therefore, the processing accuracy of the wire end A1 is improved as the first carrier 1 passes through each shaping mechanism.

[0284] In some implementations, such as Figure 12 and Figure 23 As shown, the multiple shaping mechanisms include a cutting mechanism C1. The cutting mechanism C1 includes two cutters C11. The two cutters C11 are arranged opposite each other to form a cutting opening C12, the length of which is consistent with the extension direction of the multiple outlets 11.

[0285] The cutting mechanism C1 is configured to drive two cutters C to move toward the outlet 11 until the end A1 of the wire A enters the cutting opening C12 and reaches a predetermined distance.

[0286] Specifically, there are two cutting mechanisms C1. The two cutting mechanisms C1 are respectively located between the baking mechanism C7 and the cutting mechanism C4, and after the coating mechanism C6. The cutting mechanism C1 located between the baking mechanism C7 and the cutting mechanism C4 can cut multiple thread ends A1, making the ends of the multiple thread ends A1 neat (e.g., ...). Figure 10 As shown in state IIa). The cutting mechanism C1, located after the coating mechanism C6, ensures that the length of the wire core A2 of the coated wire end A1 remains consistent (e.g., ...). Figure 10 As shown in state IIb, the thin solid line in the figure represents the cut-off wire core A2, so that the wire end A1 can be bent in subsequent processes to fit the pad B1.

[0287] In some implementations, such as Figure 12 and Figures 24-30 As shown, the multiple shaping mechanisms also include a wire pulling mechanism C2 and a wire twisting mechanism C3.

[0288] The cable pulling mechanism C2 includes a first clamping part C21. The first clamping part C21 is correspondingly arranged with respect to the cable outlet 11. The cable twisting mechanism C3 includes a second clamping part C31. The second clamping part C31 is correspondingly arranged with respect to the cable outlet 11.

[0289] In the conveying direction of the conveying assembly 3, the twisting mechanism C3 is located behind the pulling mechanism C2. The pulling mechanism C2 is configured to drive the first clamping part C21 to clamp the wire end A1 group and pull it along the extension direction of the wire outlet 11.

[0290] The twisting mechanism C3 is configured to drive the second clamping part C31 to clamp a group of wire ends A1 and rotate them circumferentially around the outlet 11 by a predetermined angle. The multiple wire ends A1 of the wire A form a group of wire ends A1 extending from the outlet 11.

[0291] Easy to understand, such as Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, in this embodiment, wire A includes multiple conductors A5, and the end of each conductor A5 forms the aforementioned wire head A1. Some conductors A5 form a wire group and extend from the wire outlet 11. The wire group in the figure includes two conductors A5, and the two conductors A5 in one wire group correspond to a pad B1 on the functional element B, respectively.

[0292] In this embodiment, the wire pulling mechanism C2 is used to pull multiple wire ends A1 in a wire outlet 11, causing the two conductors A5 of the wire outlet 11 to extend side by side, preventing the conductors A5 from bending on the first carrier 1. Simultaneously, it causes the multiple wire ends A1 to extend laterally towards the first carrier 1 and extend in a straight line. After the group of wire ends A1 is straightened, the wire twisting mechanism C3 can apply a torsional force to the group of wire ends A1, for example, twisting the group 180 degrees or 360 degrees. During this process, the two conductors A5 corresponding to the two wire ends A1 can be spirally coiled together, preventing the two conductors A5 from unraveling in subsequent processes. At the same time, the two wire ends A1 can also be tightly pressed together, so that the volume of the group of wire ends A1 is adapted to the size of the solder pad B1, facilitating soldering operations with the solder pad B1.

[0293] In some implementations, such as Figures 24-30 As shown, the first clamping part C21 includes two first clamps C22 arranged in pairs. Conversely, the second clamping part C31 includes two second clamps C32 arranged in pairs. Both the first clamps C22 and the second clamps C32 have a forming groove C34.

[0294] Both the first clamping part C21 and the second clamping part C31 include multiple pairs of guide claws C36. Each pair of guide claws C36 protrudes laterally from the first chuck C22 and the second chuck C32. Each pair of guide claws C36 is spaced apart and forms guide openings C35 communicating with the forming groove C34 on opposite sides. The guide openings C35 in the two first chucks C22 face opposite directions and are staggered from each other, and the guide openings C35 in the two second chucks C32 face opposite directions and are staggered from each other.

[0295] Two guide openings C35 approach each other and intersect to gather multiple wire ends A1 into the forming groove C34, until the forming grooves C34 of the two first clamps C22 are aligned to form the first wire clamping hole C23, and the forming grooves C34 of the two second clamps C32 are aligned to form the second wire clamping hole C33.

[0296] In this embodiment, when the two first clamps C22 and the two second clamps C32 are engaged, the two forming grooves C34 located on opposite sides of the two first clamps C22 can form first wire clamping holes C23. Conversely, the two forming grooves C34 located on opposite sides of the two second clamps C32 can form second wire clamping holes C33. During this process, the two paired guide claws C36 can cooperate with the two paired guide claws C36 on opposite sides to gather multiple wire ends A1 into the first wire clamping holes C23 and the second wire clamping holes C33 respectively. Especially when there are many wire ends A1, it can prevent any wire ends A1 from not entering the forming grooves C34 during the engagement of the two forming grooves C34.

[0297] Figure 26 and Figure 29The specific forms of the two first chucks C22 and the two second chucks C32 are shown respectively. Figure 26 For example, in the figure, one first chuck C22 is provided with a pair of guide claws C36, and the other first chuck C22 is provided with two pairs of first chucks C22. Simultaneously, the two pairs of guide claws C36 are spaced apart along the extension direction of the forming groove C34. As the two first chucks C22 approach each other, the pair of guide claws C36 on one first chuck C22 can abut against the other first chuck C22 to limit the distance between the two first chucks C22 and prevent the wire core A2 from being excessively compressed and deformed. At the same time, one pair of guide claws C36 passes between the two pairs of guide claws C36. In this configuration, the above three pairs of guide claws C36 are arranged sequentially along the axial direction of the first wire clamping hole C23 to ensure that all areas along the length of the wire end A1 can move into the first wire clamping hole C23. Therefore, the axial length of the first clamping hole C23 and the second clamping hole C33 can be configured to be greater than or equal to the length of the wire core A2 at the wire end A1, so as to completely clamp the wire core A2 at the wire end A1 and prevent the wire core A2 at the wire end A1 from bending and deforming.

[0298] Preferably, such as Figure 30 As shown, the first clamping hole C23 and the second clamping hole C33 have the same axial length, but their axial cross-sectional shapes are different. The axial cross-section of the first clamping hole C23 is larger than that of the second clamping hole C33.

[0299] Further reference Figure 26 and Figure 29 As shown, the forming groove C34 of the first clamp C22 has a flat area and two arc-shaped areas on both sides of the flat area in the width direction. When the two wire ends A1 of the wire end A1 group are clamped by the first clamping hole C23, the wire cores A2 of the two wire ends A1 can be arranged along the length direction of the cross-section of the first clamping hole C23. This ensures that the extension direction of the wire cores A2 of the wire end A1 is consistent with or approximately consistent with the extension direction of the wire A5, so as to ensure that the wire pulling mechanism C2 can straighten the wire A5. In contrast, the forming groove C34 of the second clamp C32 is arc-shaped, and the cross-section of the second clamping hole C33 is approximately circular. In this configuration, multiple wire cores A2 of the wire end A1 group can be squeezed together. Therefore, when the wire group is spirally wound together, the cross-sectional area of ​​multiple wire cores A2 in the wire end A1 group can be reduced to adapt to the shape of the pad B1.

[0300] Optionally, such as Figure 29As shown, the second clamping part C31 includes a driving gear C371, two driven gears C372, a telescopic member C373, and a rotating member C374. The telescopic member C373 has a hinge portion and is connected to the rotating member C374. The two driven gears C372 can drive the two rotating members C374 to rotate respectively, so that the two second clamps C32 rotate. The telescopic member C373 realizes the opening and closing of the two second clamps C32 through the hinge portion.

[0301] In some implementations, such as Figure 12 , Figure 31 and Figure 32 As shown, the multiple shaping mechanisms include a cutting mechanism C4 and a peeling mechanism C5. The cutting mechanism C4 includes a laser head C41 and a third clamping part C42. The peeling mechanism C5 includes two peeling blades C51 arranged opposite each other.

[0302] In the conveying direction of the conveying assembly 3, the stripping mechanism C5 is located behind the cutting mechanism C4. The cutting mechanism C4 is configured to clamp the end of the wire head A1 by the third clamping part C42 and cut the wire sheath A3 by the laser head C41. The stripping mechanism C5 is configured to drive the two stripping blades C51 to press against the wire sheath A3 and pull it away from the first carrier 1.

[0303] Specifically, there are two laser heads C41, one above and one below the wire end A1, to ensure that the wire sheath A3 can be cut open. Two stripping blades C51 are operably positioned close to the wire outlet 11, corresponding to the laser position of the wire sheath A3 or to the side of the laser position away from the wire outlet 11, to ensure that the wire sheath A3 at the end of the wire end A1 can be smoothly peeled off from the wire end A1.

[0304] Figure 33 This is a schematic diagram of the baking mechanism C7 in this embodiment.

[0305] In some implementations, such as Figures 1-10 and Figure 33 As shown, the first carrier 1 has an air inlet 171, an air duct 145, and an exhaust vent 146. The air inlet 171 and the exhaust vent 146 are located at the top and bottom of the air duct 145, respectively, and communicate with the air duct 145. The conductor A5 of the wire A passes through the air duct 145. The wire A includes multiple conductors A5, with the wire end A1 located at the end of the conductor A5.

[0306] The multiple shaping mechanisms also include a baking mechanism C7. The baking mechanism C7 includes a hot air section C71, a suction section C72, and a heat insulation plate C73, with the heat insulation plate C73 located between the air outlet of the hot air section C71 and the air inlet of the suction section C72.

[0307] The baking mechanism C7 is configured such that hot air from the hot air section C71 is blown into the air duct 145 through the air inlet 171, and hot air is drawn out through the exhaust vent 146 by the suction section C72. In contrast, the heat insulation plate C73 is located near the cable outlet 11 until it corresponds to the cable end A1 and the air outlet of the hot air section C71, while being offset from the air inlet 171.

[0308] Specifically, the first carrier 1 includes a first platform 14 and a first cover 17a rotatably connected to the first platform 14. The aforementioned air inlet 171 is disposed on the first cover 17a, and a claw 172 (e.g., ...) is provided at the edge of the first cover 17a. Figure 6 As shown, the air duct 145 and the exhaust window 146 are disposed on the first platform 14. The first cover 17a is disposed on the air duct 145, and the claw 172 extends into the outlet 11 to press against the wire end A1, thereby fixing the wire end A1.

[0309] The hot air section C71 includes a hot air gun and a blowing duct. The hot air gun blows hot air into the air chamber 145 through the blowing duct. The suction section C72 includes a negative pressure fan and a suction duct. The negative pressure fan draws hot air out of the exhaust window 146 through the suction duct (e.g., ...). Figure 33 (As indicated by the middle arrow). In this embodiment, the heat insulation plate C73 is located above the cable outlet 11 and moves toward the cable outlet 11 to block the air duct and the wire end A1 (as shown by the middle arrow). Figure 9 (As shown in state Ib). This prevents hot air from being blown directly to the wire end A1. At the same time, the claw 172 also prevents hot air from flowing from the air groove 145 to the wire end A1. On the other hand, the negative pressure fan can also work with the exhaust window 146 to promptly remove the hot air in the air groove 145, preventing hot air from being transferred to the wire end A1 via the wire A.

[0310] It is easy to understand that in this embodiment, the conductor A5 includes a core A2 and a sheath A3 located outside the core A2. The sheath A3 can be made of silicone rubber. The hot air filling groove 145 of the baking mechanism C7 is used to bake the area of ​​the conductor A5 located within the groove 145. After the sheath A3 of the conductor A5 in this area is baked by the hot air, the silicone rubber shrinks, thereby holding the core A2 tightly. Thus, the sheath A3 in this area can be fixed together with the core A2, preventing the stripping mechanism C5 from stretching the sheath A3 of the conductor A5 when peeling it off, or from stretching the sheath A3 during the bending process of the wire A (e.g., during the bending process of the wire A). Figure 10 As shown in state IIc, due to its own elasticity, the end of the wire sheath A3 contracts towards the outlet 11. Alternatively, when the wire assembly bends, the outer conductor A5, due to its larger bending radius, causes the sheath A3 to contract more significantly than the inner conductor A5. Consequently, the exposed lengths of the wire core A2 at the two wire ends A1 are inconsistent.

[0311] Therefore, in this embodiment, the insulation A3 of part of the conductor A5 is baked to make it tightly hug the conductor A2, preventing the insulation A3 from shifting relative to the conductor A2. At the same time, to ensure that the insulation A3 at the conductor end A1 is not affected, a heat insulation plate C73 is also used. This prevents the insulation A3 from failing to separate smoothly from the conductor A2 in the stripping mechanism C5.

[0312] Optionally, each shaping mechanism may be equipped with a carrier fixing part, which includes a carrier pressure head. The carrier pressure head is located near the conveying assembly 3 in the shaping mechanism to position the first carrier 1 when the shaping mechanism shapes the wire A. This prevents the first carrier 1 from moving on the conveying assembly 3 during the shaping process of the shaping mechanism.

[0313] Figure 21 This is a schematic diagram of the flip mechanism C10 in this embodiment. Figure 22 This is a schematic diagram showing the positional relationship between the toggle fork C101 and the first carrier 1 in this embodiment.

[0314] In some implementations, such as Figure 13 , Figure 44 and Figure 45 As shown, the first platform 14 has two recessed areas 16 on its side. There are two second cable outlet slots 142 located on both sides of the third cable outlet slot 143, and the two recessed areas 16 are located on both sides of the third cable outlet slot 143 and between the two second cable outlet slots 142.

[0315] The first carrier 1 also includes a first cover 17a, which is rotatably connected to the first platform 14. The first cover 17a covers the recessed area 16, the first cable outlet groove 141, the second cable outlet groove 142, and the third cable outlet groove 143.

[0316] The product assembly system also includes a flip-top mechanism C10. In the conveying direction of the conveying component 3, the flip-top mechanism C10 is located before the wire-pulling mechanism C9. The flip-top mechanism C10 includes a toggle fork C101, which includes two fork heads C102 spaced apart.

[0317] The flip-top mechanism C10 is configured to drive two forks C102 to insert into two recessed areas 16 respectively, and the wire end A1 of the third wire outlet 143 extends between the two forks C102, lifting the fork C101 and pushing the first cover 17a away from the wire outlet 11.

[0318] In this embodiment, the first cover 17a is suspended in the recessed area 16. When the fork head C102 is raised, the first cover 17a can be lifted. At the same time, the wire end A1 located in the third wire outlet groove 143 extends between the two fork heads C102, that is, the distance between the two fork heads C102 can be used to avoid the wire end A1.

[0319] In some implementations, such as Figure 35 and Figure 41 As shown, the wire-picking mechanism C9 also includes a first pressing block C93. The wire-picking mechanism C9 is further configured such that after the wire A5 enters the second outlet groove 142, the bottom of the driving portion of the first pressing block C93 extends into the second outlet groove 142 and presses against the wire A5.

[0320] The bending mechanism C8 also includes a second pressure block C86. The bending mechanism C8 is also configured such that before the roller C841 presses the bent section A41 against the forming block C832, the bottom of the driving part of the second pressure block C86 extends into the second outlet groove 142 and presses against the wire A5.

[0321] Figure 35 and Figure 41 The enlarged view shows the specific forms of the pressure head of the first pressure block C93 and the pressure head of the second pressure block C86. The pressure heads are respectively matched with the shape of the second wire outlet groove 142 to fix the wire A5.

[0322] As is easily understood, in this embodiment, the first pressing block C93 presses the wire A5 after the wire-changing mechanism C9 completes the wire change, to ensure that the wire A5 can enter the second wire outlet groove 142. Conversely, the second pressing block C86 presses the wire A5 before the bending forming section A4 of the bending mechanism C8, to prevent the roller C841 from pulling the wire A5 during the rolling process, which would cause the wire A5 to pull the wire bundle A6 or cause the wire sheath A3 to be stretched.

[0323] In some implementations, such as Figure 36 and Figure 37 As shown, the top of the pad C831 has a bearing surface C8311. The forming block C832 protrudes from the bearing surface C8311 near the edge of the outlet 11. The roller body C841 has a cylindrical surface C8411 and an annular surface C8412. The annular surface C8412 is disposed opposite to the bearing surface C8311, and the cylindrical surface C8411 is disposed opposite to the forming surface C833.

[0324] Roller C841 rolls the bent section A41 onto the forming surface C833 via cylindrical surface C8411. Annular surface C8412 mates with bearing surface C8311 to restrict the shape of the forming section A4 in the height direction of forming block C832.

[0325] In this embodiment, an accommodating area 63 is formed between the toroidal surface C8412 and the bearing surface C8311, and between the cylindrical surface C8411 and the forming surface C833, which can simultaneously restrict the shape of the forming segment A4 in the horizontal direction and the shape in the height direction.

[0326] Preferably, such as Figure 40As shown in state IIIa, the figure illustrates the approximate outline of the annular surface C8412 of the roller C841, with the cylindrical surface C8411 located at the bottom of the annular surface C8412 (not shown). Before the roller C841 comes into contact with the wire A5, it first rests against the side of the first carrier 1 via the cylindrical surface C8411, and then rolls towards the forming block C832. This ensures that the root of the forming section A4, i.e., the area adjacent to the outlet 11, is in close contact with the forming block C832. Simultaneously, as the roller C841 moves around the forming block C832, it also pulls the wire A5 outward from the outlet 11, preventing the roller C841 from directly rolling the wire A5 and causing it to bend.

[0327] In some implementations, such as Figure 11 , Figure 56 and Figure 57 As shown, the main conveyor track 36 also includes a separation section 362 in its extending direction. The separation section 362 is spaced apart from the assembly section 361 and located at one end away from the shaping section 363. When the product is in the separation section 362, the processed product will separate from the first carrier 1.

[0328] The conveying assembly 3 also includes a second return track 382, ​​which extends from one end of the assembly section 361 near the separation section 362 to one end near the shaping section 363. In this embodiment, the second return track 382 is used to convey the second carrier 2 back to the front position of the main conveying track 36.

[0329] The bottom of the second contour groove 21 has a through hole 22. The product assembly system also includes a third conveying mechanism 43 and a separation mechanism 5. The third conveying mechanism 43 includes a third actuator 431, which includes a third pick-up part 432 and a second suction head 433. The separation mechanism 5 includes an ejection part 51 and a second fixing part 52, which includes a second fixing arm 521, and the ejection part 51 includes an ejector head 511.

[0330] The separation mechanism 5 is configured to drive the second fixed arm 521 to press against the second carrier 2, and the ejector head 511 passes through the through hole 22 to lift the functional element B.

[0331] The third transport mechanism 43 is configured to pick up the first carrier 1 via the third pickup part 432 and the functional element B via the second suction head 433, and move it to the separation section 362. The first contour groove 12 faces downwards, thus preventing the functional element B from sagging during the movement of the first carrier 1. During this process, the cover 17 is located at the bottom of the first platform 14 and engages with the first contour groove 12. Magnets are correspondingly provided on the cover 17 and the first platform 14, allowing the cover 17 to stably cover the first platform 14. Using the second suction head 433, the functional element B and the first carrier 1 are kept at the same height during movement, preventing the functional element B from wobbling and pulling on the wire A5.

[0332] The transfer component 3 is configured to transfer the vacant second vehicle 2 from the assembly section 361 to the second return track 382.

[0333] Thus, the second carrier 2, after passing through the separation mechanism 5, can be transported back to the beginning of the assembly section 361, thereby realizing the reuse of the second carrier 2.

[0334] Specifically, such as Figure 4 As shown, the second platform 24 of the second carrier 2 is provided with multiple positioning elements on its edge. When the first carrier 1 and the second carrier 2 are assembled together, the multiple positioning elements abut against the side of the first carrier 1, which can position the first carrier 1 from the side and prevent the first carrier 1 and the second carrier 2 from easily separating from each other during the transfer process. At the same time, it can also ensure that the multiple wire ends A1 extending from the second wire outlet 142 and the third wire outlet 143 can be connected to the corresponding solder pads B1.

[0335] Furthermore, such as Figure 46 and Figure 47 As shown, the product assembly system also includes a first positioning mechanism D3 and a third actuating part D4. The first positioning mechanism D3 includes a locking head D31, and the third actuating part D4 includes an actuating plate D41. When the second return track 382 conveys the second carrier 2, which houses the functional element B, to the end of the second return track 382, ​​the locking head D31 abuts against the side of the second carrier 2 to position it. Then, the sixth transport mechanism 46 assembles the first carrier 1, which houses the wire A, with the second carrier 2. After the assembly is completed, the locking head D31 resets. At the same time, the actuating plate D41 actuates the carrier assembly towards the assembly section 361.

[0336] Figure 59 and Figure 60 The different directions of the second return track 382 where the seventh transport mechanism 47 and the eighth transport mechanism 48 are located are shown respectively.

[0337] Further reference Figure 59 and Figure 60As shown, the second return track 382 is arranged around the material tray G1, the second positioning mechanism G2, the transfer table G3, the seventh transport mechanism 47, and the eighth transport mechanism 48. The material tray G1 is used to accommodate functional elements B. The seventh transport mechanism 47 sets multiple functional elements B on the transfer table G3 through the seventh actuator 471. The eighth transport mechanism 48 removes two functional elements B from the transfer table G3 through the eighth actuator 481 and places them into the second positioning mechanism G2 for positioning. The second positioning mechanism G2 can ensure the positional accuracy of the functional elements B in the horizontal and circumferential directions. After the second positioning mechanism G2 completes the positioning of the functional elements B, the eighth actuator 481 places the repositioned functional elements B onto the passing second carrier 2.

[0338] In some implementations, such as Figure 11 , Figure 58 and Figure 59 As shown, the conveying component 3 also includes a feeding track 37.

[0339] The product assembly system also includes a first conveying mechanism 41. The first conveying mechanism 41 includes a first actuator 411. The first actuator 411 is operably movable between the separation section 362 and the unloading track 37. The separation section 362 has a second disconnection zone 3621, and a flipping mechanism 6 is disposed in the second disconnection zone 3621.

[0340] The flipping mechanism 6 is configured to convey the first carrier 1 to the receiving area 63, and the third rotary drive 61 reverses the orientation of the opening end 631 to flip the first contouring groove 12. The first conveying mechanism 41 is configured to drive the first actuator 411 to remove the product from the first contouring groove 12 and place it into the unloading track 37.

[0341] Specifically, at the separation mechanism 5 position, the first carrier 1 and the second carrier 2 are separated. In this configuration, the first contouring groove 12 of the first carrier 1 faces downward. To make the first contouring groove 12 face upward, in this embodiment, a flipping mechanism 6 is used to flip the orientation of the first carrier 1. During the flipping process, the paired positioning arms 62 can prevent the first carrier 1 from shaking.

[0342] It is easy to understand that a flipping mechanism 6 adjacent to the sixth conveying mechanism 46 has already flipped the first carrier 1 once to facilitate assembly with the second carrier 2. In this embodiment, another flipping mechanism 6 adjacent to the first conveying mechanism 41 can flip the first carrier 1 again so that its first contour groove 12 faces upward, so that the first actuator 411 can remove the product from the first carrier 1.

[0343] Furthermore, the product assembly system in this embodiment also includes a cover opening mechanism D1.

[0344] The vehicle assembly includes a first vehicle 1. The first vehicle 1 includes a first platform 14 and a cover 17. The first platform 14 has a first contoured groove 12 and a notch 18. The notch 18 faces the edge of the first platform 14 and is recessed to the bottom. The cover 17 is rotatably connected to the first platform 14 and covers the first contoured groove 12 and the notch 18. That is, the notch 18 is located at the edge of the first platform 14.

[0345] The opening mechanism D1 includes a flip-top part D11 and a first fixing part D12. The flip-top part D11 includes a first actuating member D111 and a buffer member D112. The first fixing part D12 includes a first fixing arm D121.

[0346] Further reference Figure 11 , Figure 14 and Figure 50 As shown, the conveying assembly 3 includes a main conveying track 36 and a discharge track 37. The main conveying track 36 conveys multiple first carriers 1 sequentially through the cover opening mechanism D1 and the first handling mechanism 41. The first actuator 411 is operable to move between the main conveying track 36 and the discharge track 37.

[0347] The lid-opening mechanism D1 is configured to drive the first fixed arm D121 to press against the top of the first platform 14, the buffer member D112 moves to the side of the first platform 14 away from the notch 18, the first actuating member D111 inserts into the notch 18 and flips the lid 17 towards the buffer member D112, and the buffer member D112 moves away from the lid 17 after contacting the lid 17, so that the lid 17 falls. The first conveying mechanism 41 is configured to drive the first actuator 411 to remove the product from the first contour groove 12 and place it into the unloading track 37.

[0348] Specifically, before the cover 17 is opened, the buffer member D112 in this embodiment maintains a certain distance from the side of the first carrier 1 away from the notch 18, and the buffer member D112 is offset from the first carrier 1 in the height direction. The location of the buffer member D112 (e.g., Figure 52 As shown, the cover 17 can be blocked during its descent after being opened, preventing the first actuating member D111 from directly opening the cover 17, which would cause the cover 17 to fall too fast and collide with the first platform 14.

[0349] Preferably, in this embodiment, the buffer D112 is made of rubber or foam, which can effectively absorb the kinetic energy of the cover 17 when the buffer D112 abuts against the cover 17. This prevents the cover 17 from springing back onto the first contour groove 12 after it abuts against the buffer D112. In this embodiment, there are two first fixing arms D121, and their ends extend to both sides of the first platform 14 (e.g., Figure 52As shown), this ensures that when the first actuating element D111 opens the cover 17, the first platform 14 remains stably positioned on the transmission assembly 3.

[0350] In this embodiment, the product assembly system utilizes the main conveyor track 36 to transport the first carrier 1 sequentially through the cover opening mechanism D1 and the first transport mechanism 41. This allows the first transport mechanism 41 to remove the assembled product from the first carrier 1 and place it into the unloading track 37 after the cover opening mechanism D1 opens the cover 17. Thus, on one hand, the buffer D112 blocks the cover 17 during its opening process, preventing the first actuating member D111 from directly opening the cover 17, which could cause the cover 17 to rotate too quickly and impact the first carrier 1. On the other hand, before the first actuating member D111 lifts the cover 17, the first fixing arm D121 presses against the top of the first platform 14, preventing the cover opening member D111 from lifting the first platform 14 along with the cover 17, ensuring effective separation of the cover 17 from the first platform 14.

[0351] In some implementations, such as Figures 51-52 As shown, the flip cover D11 also includes a first linear actuator D113, a first rotary actuator D114, and a connecting block D115. The connecting block D115 is connected to the driving ends of both the first actuating member D111 and the first rotary actuator D114. The driving end of the first linear actuator D113 is connected to the buffer member D112.

[0352] The rotation axis of the first rotary actuator D114 is parallel to the direction of motion of the drive end of the first linear actuator D113 and the rotation axis of the cover 17.

[0353] Specifically, in this embodiment, the flip cover D11 and the first fixing part D12 are located on the same side of the first carrier 1. The first linear actuator D113 drives the buffer member D112 to move in a direction parallel to the rotation axis of the cover 17. After the buffer member D112 has completed blocking the cover 17, the first linear actuator D113 resets so that the buffer member D112 can disengage from the cover 17.

[0354] In some implementations, such as Figure 7 and Figure 9 As shown, the first platform 14 includes a body 147 and a slider 148. The body 147 includes a positioning block 1472 corresponding to the slider 148 and a first slide rail 1471. The slider 148 has a main wire groove 144, and the slider 148 is disposed in the first slide rail 1471 and clamps the fixing arm A7 of the product with the positioning block 1472 to position the product. The product includes a wire A with the fixing arm A7 disposed thereon. In this embodiment, the wire A includes a wire harness A6, and multiple wires A5 are led out from the wire harness A6. The fixing arm A7 is disposed at the end of the wire harness A6.

[0355] Further reference Figure 54 As shown, the first actuator 411 includes a first pickup part 414, a second pickup part 415, and a release part 412. The release part 412 includes a second actuating member 413, and the first pickup part 414 includes a carrier clamp 4141. The second pickup part 415 includes a wire harness clamp 4151 and a first suction head 4152.

[0356] Further reference Figure 53 As shown, the first conveying mechanism 41 is also configured to drive the carrier clamp 4141 to pick up the first carrier 1 from the main conveyor track 36, and the second actuating member 413 drives the sliding member 148 away from the positioning block 1472 to release the product, and picks up the wire A and functional element B of the product through the wire harness clamp 4151 and the first suction head 4152 respectively. Among them, the functional element B is connected to the end of the wire A.

[0357] Specifically, such as Figure 7 As shown, the first carrier 1 in this embodiment includes a drive body 191. A second actuating element 413 actuates the drive body 191 to rotate. The drive body 191, through a rotating rod, causes the sliding element 148 to slide, moving the sliding element 148 away from the positioning block 1472 to release the product. Further referring to… Figure 53 As shown, after the first actuator 411 picks up the first carrier 1 via the carrier clamp 4141, the release unit 412 completes the release operation, the wire harness clamp 4151 clamps the wire harness A6, and the first suction head 4152 picks up the functional component B. At the same time, the first actuator 411 places the first carrier 1 back onto the main conveyor track 36. In this configuration, the separation operation between the product and the first carrier 1 is completed. Then, the first actuator 411 moves to the unloading track 37, and after adjusting the angle of the product via the fourth rotary driver C92, it is placed onto the unloading track 37.

[0358] In some implementations, such as Figure 11 , Figure 14 and Figure 55 As shown, the conveying component 3 also includes a first return track 381, which extends from the separation section 362 to the end of the shaping section 363 away from the assembly section 361.

[0359] The product assembly system also includes a second conveying mechanism 42. The second conveying mechanism 42 includes a second rotary drive 421 and a second actuator 422 disposed at the drive end of the second rotary drive 421. The second actuator 422 is operable to move between the separation section 362 and the first return track 381.

[0360] The second transport mechanism 42 is configured to drive the second actuator 422 to pick up the empty first carrier 1 on the separation section 362, and then place the first carrier 1 into the first return track 381 after adjusting the direction of the first carrier 1 by the second rotary driver 421.

[0361] In this embodiment, the first return track 381 is used to transport the used first carrier 1 back to the beginning of the shaping section 363 so that the first carrier 1 can be reused. At the same time, the first carrier 1, after being reversed, can be more easily transported by the first return track 381.

[0362] Furthermore, the product assembly system in this embodiment also includes a lid closing mechanism D2. The lid closing mechanism D2 includes a third actuating element D21.

[0363] The main conveyor track 36 transports the first carrier 1 through the second transport mechanism 42 and the closing mechanism D2 in sequence.

[0364] The third actuator D21 moves the cover 17 toward the first contour groove 12, the second actuator 422 picks up the first carrier 1 of the main conveyor rail 36, and after adjusting the direction of the first carrier 1 by the second rotary driver 421, puts it into the first return rail 381.

[0365] Easy to understand, such as Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, in this embodiment, the width of the cover 17 is approximately the same as the width of the first platform 14. Meanwhile, a gripping element is provided on the side of the cover 17 and the first platform 14 away from the cable outlet 11. During the transfer of the first carrier 1, this gripping element is used by the operator to remove the first carrier 1 from the transfer assembly 3 at any time and to inspect the cable A in the first carrier 1. Therefore, when the second cover 17b is opened, the volume occupied by the entire first carrier 1 becomes too large. Therefore, in this embodiment, the second cover 17b is reattached to the first platform 14 so that it can be placed onto the first return track 381 after the second rotary drive 421 rotates the first carrier 1.

[0366] In some implementations, such as Figure 49 As shown, the separation section 362 includes a first slide rail 31, a second slide rail 32, and a support strip 391. The first slide rail 31 and the second slide rail 32 are spaced apart to form a second slide rail 392, and the support strip 391 is disposed on the first slide rail 31 and extends along the first slide rail 31. The first carrier 1 includes a slider 13, which slides along the second slide rail 392, and the functional element B is mounted on the support strip 391 and slides along the support strip 391.

[0367] In this embodiment, the bearing strip 391 is used to support the functional element B during the transmission of the first carrier 1, so that the wire A and the functional element B can be in a horizontal state, avoiding the functional element B from drooping to the side of the first slide rail 31 during the transmission of the first carrier 1, which would cause pulling on the wire end A1.

[0368] In some implementations, such as Figures 50-51As shown, the flip cover D11 also includes a guide assembly D116. The guide assembly D116 includes a horizontal slide rail and a vertical slide rail. A connecting block D115 is slidably disposed on the vertical slide rail and is hinged to the first rotary actuator D114. The vertical slide rail is slidably disposed on the horizontal slide rail. The first actuating member D111 moves about the rotation axis of the first rotary actuator D114. The connecting block D115 slides synchronously along the horizontal and vertical slide rails.

[0369] In this embodiment, the connecting block D115 is rotatably connected to the first rotary driver D114, and the guide assembly D116 is used to restrict the setting direction of the first actuating member D111. This ensures that during the process of the first actuating member D111 opening the cover 17, the first actuating member D111 can always extend towards the side of the first carrier 1 away from the notch 18 to contact the bottom of the cover 17. Thus, it is guaranteed that the first actuating member D111 can push the cover 17 towards the side of the first carrier 1 away from the notch 18.

[0370] In some implementations, such as Figure 8 , Figure 49 and Figure 58 As shown, the second carrier 2 includes a lever 23, a second platform 24, and a second sliding member 25. The second platform 24 has a receiving recess 241 and a third slide rail 242, and the second sliding member 25 has a contoured edge 251 and is slidably disposed in the third slide rail 242. The lever 23 is rotatably connected to the second platform 24 and drives the second sliding member 25 to approach the receiving recess 241, and the contoured edge 251 and the receiving recess 241 are joined to form a second contoured groove 21.

[0371] Assembly section 361 includes a fourth slide rail 3611, which has two windows 3612 spaced apart on its side.

[0372] The product assembly system also includes a release mechanism 7. The release mechanism 7 includes a second linear actuator 71, a blocking member 72, and a fourth actuating member 73. The blocking member 72 includes a push block 721 and two positioning rods 722 disposed on the push block 721. The blocking member 72 and the fourth actuating member 73 are disposed at the drive end of the second linear actuator 71.

[0373] The release mechanism 7 is configured to drive two positioning rods 722 to pass through two windows 3612 respectively, extend into the fourth slide rail 3611 and be locked on both sides of the second platform 24. The fourth actuating member 73 moves the lever 23 away from the window 3612 until the push block 721 abuts against the assembly section 361.

[0374] Specifically, the assembly section 361 in this embodiment includes two spaced-apart slide rails. The aforementioned window 3612 is provided on the slide rail near the release mechanism 7. When the fourth actuating member 73 actuates the lever 23, causing the second sliding member 25 to move away from the receiving recess 241, the push block 721 can abut against the slide rail with the window 3612, thereby limiting the movement range of the fourth actuating member 73. Simultaneously, the positioning rod 722 restricts the movement of the second carrier 2 from both its front and rear sides, preventing the carrier assembly from moving back and forth during the actuation of the fourth actuating member 73. Figure 58 The approximate outline of the second vehicle 2 is shown with a dashed line.

[0375] Further reference Figure 11 As shown, the assembly section 361 transports the carrier assembly through the ninth handling mechanism 49 and the defective product collection station H1. The ninth handling mechanism 49 can remove products with welding defects from the assembly section 361 and place them into the defective product collection station H1.

[0376] Furthermore, a first station F1 is provided at the beginning of the shaping section 363. A second station F2 and a third station F3 are respectively provided near the sixth transport mechanism 46 on the second return track 382 and assembly section 361. At the first station F1, the operator can place the wire A to be processed in the first contouring groove 12 of the first carrier 1, and after the wire end A1 extends from the outlet 11, cover it with the cover 17. At the second station F2, the operator can check the status of the functional component B placed in the second carrier 2 and adjust it. At the third station F3, the operator can check whether the wire core A2 of the wire end A1 extends above the solder pad B1 and adjust it.

[0377] Preferably, the area from the beginning to the fourth disconnection zone in the first return track is positioned above the area from the beginning to the third disconnection zone in the shaping section 363. The fourth transport mechanism is used to raise the height of the first carrier 1, allowing it to move within the fourth disconnection zone. This configuration facilitates the operator at the first station F1 in removing the empty first carrier 1 from the first return track 381 and loading wire A onto it. Simultaneously, the first station F1 can be positioned on both sides of the shaping section 363, improving space utilization efficiency. Conversely, the fifth transport mechanism is used to move the first carrier 1 within the third disconnection zone at a predetermined frequency. This ensures sufficient spacing between the first carriers 1 in the shaping section 363, preventing overcrowding of the first carriers 1 at the wire-picking mechanism C9 position.

[0378] In one optional implementation, further refer to Figure 61 As shown, the above product assembly system can be operated through the following steps:

[0379] Step S100: The product's wire A and functional component B are respectively positioned in the first contouring groove 12 and the second contouring groove 21. The first contouring groove 12 and the second contouring groove 21 are located in the first carrier 1 and the second carrier 2, respectively. In this step, the first carrier 1 and the second carrier 2 are used to fix the wire A and the functional component B, respectively.

[0380] Step S200: Assemble the first carrier 1 onto the second carrier 2 to form a carrier assembly, so that the wire end A1 of wire A passes through the outlet 11 and extends to the pad B1 of the functional component B, and is exposed on the outside of the first carrier 1. The first contouring groove 12 and the second contouring groove 21 face the opposite sides of the first carrier 1 and the second carrier 2. In this step, the first carrier 1 and the second carrier 2 are assembled. After the first carrier 1 and the second carrier 2 are positioned relative to each other, the wire end A1 will extend precisely onto the corresponding pad B1.

[0381] Step S300: Position the second contouring groove 21 upwards and solder the wire end A1 to the corresponding pad B1. In this step, the pad B1 located in the second contouring groove 21 can be exposed outside the first carrier 1 to facilitate the soldering operation between the wire end A1 and the pad B1.

[0382] Step S400: Remove the product from the carrier assembly. In this step, the product assembly operation can be completed after it is separated from the carrier assembly.

[0383] In summary, the product assembly method of this embodiment places wire A and functional component B in the first contouring groove 12 of the first carrier 1 and the second contouring groove 21 of the second carrier 2, respectively. When the first carrier 1 and the second carrier 2 are assembled together, the first contouring groove 12 and the second contouring groove 21 are in a state of close proximity to each other, which allows wire end A1 to pass through the wire outlet 11 and extend to the solder pad B1, thus ensuring the relative positional relationship between wire end A1 and solder pad B1.

[0384] On the other hand, at least a portion of the second contour groove 21 is offset from the first carrier 1, and the welding head E11 of the welding mechanism E1 moves towards the bottom of the second contour groove 21, thereby welding the wire end A1 and the pad B1 together. This simplifies the welding process and improves the level of automation.

[0385] Furthermore, the product assembly method also includes moving the wire A5 from the first wire outlet groove 141 to the second wire outlet groove 142, and pulling the shaped section A4 out from the outlet 11 of the second wire outlet groove 142.

[0386] The first carrier platform 14 has a main cable groove 144, a first cable outlet groove 141 and a second cable outlet groove 142. One end of the first cable outlet groove 141 and the second cable outlet groove 142 are connected to the main cable groove 144, and the other end of each extends to the edge of the first carrier platform 14 and forms a cable outlet 11. The second cable outlet groove 142 is away from the main cable groove 144 relative to the first cable outlet groove 141. The wire A includes a wire bundle A6 disposed in the main cable groove 144 and multiple conductors A5 that make up the wire bundle A6. The forming section A4 is located at the end of each conductor A5 away from the wire bundle A6.

[0387] This step first fully exposes the forming section A4 to the outside of the first carrier 1, and then bends the forming section A4. This avoids the wire end A1 being exposed too far outside the wire outlet 11 during shaping, and also allows the forming section A4 to be pulled out during the bending process. This improves the processing accuracy of wire A in the product assembly method.

[0388] Preferably, the product assembly method further includes setting the air outlet of the hot air section C71 toward the air inlet window 171 and setting the air inlet of the suction section C72 toward the exhaust window 146. The first carrier 1 has an air inlet window 171, an air trough 145 and an exhaust window 146, with the air inlet window 171 and the exhaust window 146 located at the top and bottom of the air trough 145 respectively and communicating with the air trough 145.

[0389] The heat insulation plate C73 is placed between the air outlet of the hot air section C71 and the wire end A1, and the heat insulation plate C73 avoids the air inlet window 171.

[0390] Hot air is blown into the air groove 145 from the air inlet 171 by the hot air unit C71, and drawn out from the exhaust 146 by the air suction unit C72, so as to fix the wire sheath A3 and the wire core A2. The conductor A5 of the wire A passes through the air groove 145 and enters the outlet 11. The wire A includes multiple conductors A5, and the wire end A1 is located at the end of the conductor A5.

[0391] Hot air is blown into the air duct 145 through the air inlet window 171 by the hot air section C71, and hot air is drawn out through the exhaust window 146 by the air suction section C72, followed by shaping of the wire end A1.

[0392] In this embodiment, the conductor A5 is first heated, causing the sheath A3 to shrink and tightly hold the core A2. This prevents the sheath A3 from shifting outside the core A2 during the subsequent shaping of wire A.

[0393] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the invention. For those skilled in the art, the present invention can be modified and varied in various ways. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principle of the present invention should be included within the scope of protection of the present invention.
