Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of sealing component installation technology, and more specifically, to sealing component installation equipment. Background Technology
[0002] Seals are important components widely used in automotive parts, industrial equipment, and other mechanical products. For seals that need to be installed into mounting slots within the mounting holes of workpieces, their initial outer diameter is larger than the diameter of the mounting slot. Often, the seal is manually compressed before being inserted into the mounting slot, which is inefficient and cannot guarantee that the seal will be fully installed.
[0003] It should be noted that the information disclosed in the background section above is only used to enhance the understanding of the background of the present invention, and therefore may include information that does not constitute prior art known to those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention
[0004] In view of this, the present invention provides a sealing element installation device that can automatically, efficiently and accurately complete the installation of sealing elements through the cooperation of a deformation mechanism and a piston assembly.
[0005] According to one aspect of the present invention, a seal mounting device is provided, comprising: a piston assembly including a piston and a clamping member connected to the piston; a deformation mechanism having a deformation head movable toward the clamping member; the seal mounting device having a deformation state and an installation state, wherein in the deformation state, the deformation head presses a seal into the clamping space of the clamping member, and the piston drives the clamping member to clamp the compressed seal; and in the installation state, the piston assembly extends into a mounting hole of a workpiece, and the piston drives the clamping member to release, so that the compressed seal rebounds into a mounting groove of the mounting hole.
[0006] The aforementioned sealing component installation equipment, through the cooperation of the deformation mechanism and the piston assembly, allows the deformation head to press the sealing component into the clamping space in the deformation state, where the clamping component clamps the compressed sealing component to maintain the deformation and store force. In the installation state, the piston assembly extends into the installation hole of the workpiece. At this time, the piston drives the clamping component to release, and the compressed sealing component can automatically spring back into the installation groove of the installation hole. In this way, the installation of the sealing component is completed automatically, efficiently and accurately.
[0007] In some embodiments, the piston is housed in a piston housing, and the clamping member includes a support shaft fixed to an end face of the piston housing and a pressure plate movably sleeved on the support shaft, the pressure plate being connected to the piston.
[0008] The compressed seal is supported by a support shaft; the compressed seal is pressed down / released by a piston-driven pressure plate, thus achieving deformation retention and springback installation of the seal.
[0009] In some embodiments, the pressure plate is provided with a fork groove adapted to the deformation head; in the deformation state, the deformation head first pushes the seal into the clamping space until the seal is tightened on the support shaft, then the clamping member clamps the compressed seal and the fork groove avoids the deformation head, and then the deformation head returns to its original position to leave the clamping space.
[0010] Through the cooperation of the pressure plate and the deformation head, during the process of driving the deformation of the seal, the deformation head first pushes the seal into the clamping space, so that the seal is taut on the support shaft and undergoes a preset deformation; then the piston drives the pressure plate to press the compressed seal, at which time the fork groove avoids the deformation head to ensure the clamping of the clamping part, and then the deformation head returns to its original position, so that the seal maintains deformation and stores force.
[0011] In some embodiments, the side of the pressure plate facing the clamping space is provided with a receiving groove adapted to the compressed seal; in the deformed state, the receiving groove receives the compressed seal, wherein the opening of the receiving groove is funnel-shaped.
[0012] The compressed seal is accommodated by the receiving groove of the pressure plate, and the opening of the receiving groove is funnel-shaped to prevent the seal from getting stuck and unable to spring back when the pressure plate is released.
[0013] In some embodiments, the support shaft and the deformation head each comprise a plurality of shafts that are circumferentially spaced and evenly distributed.
[0014] Multiple support shafts evenly distributed circumferentially ensure that the preset deformation of the seal is centrally symmetrical, resulting in uniform force accumulation in the compressed seal, which allows it to stably enter the mounting groove during rebound. Multiple deformation heads evenly distributed circumferentially drive the seal to tighten against each support shaft.
[0015] In some embodiments, a cover plate is provided on the end face of the piston housing, and the support shaft is fixedly inserted into the cover plate; and the pressure plate is connected to the piston by fasteners.
[0016] The cover plate facilitates the installation of the support shaft; the pressure plate and piston are connected by fasteners, facilitating the installation of the pressure plate; the support shaft and pressure plate can also be easily replaced according to different seal deformation requirements.
[0017] In some embodiments, the piston is housed in a piston chamber, which is divided into two chambers by the piston, and each of the two chambers is provided with an air inlet.
[0018] When air enters through the inlets of the two chambers, it drives the pistons to move in two directions, thereby driving the clamping elements to clamp / release.
[0019] In some embodiments, the sealing element installation device further includes: a support platform for placing the sealing element, the support platform being fitted around the piston assembly and not moving with the piston assembly.
[0020] The support platform is for placing the seal and does not move with the piston assembly. This allows the piston assembly's outline to fit the workpiece's mounting hole as closely as possible. In the installation state, the piston assembly moves until the seal is close to the mounting groove, so that when the clamping parts are released, the seal can smoothly spring back into the mounting groove.
[0021] In some embodiments, the sealing installation device further includes: an installation drive mechanism connected to the piston assembly via an installation plate, the installation drive mechanism being capable of driving the piston assembly to move; and a guide post connected to the installation plate, the support platform including a connecting handle, the connecting handle being movably sleeved on the guide post.
[0022] The piston assembly is driven by a drive mechanism; the connecting handle of the bearing platform is movably sleeved through the guide post so that the bearing platform is sleeved outside the piston assembly and does not move with the piston assembly.
[0023] In some embodiments, a linear bearing is sleeved on the guide post, the linear bearing is supported on the mounting plate by a spring, and the connecting handle is sleeved on the linear bearing.
[0024] The connecting handle is made to float relative to the mounting plate by means of linear bearings and springs. This allows the bearing platform to remain stationary with the piston assembly and avoid the mounting holes of the workpiece during installation.
[0025] In some embodiments, the sealing installation device further includes: a positioning fixture for placing the workpiece; in the installation state, the workpiece placed on the positioning fixture presses against the support platform.
[0026] In the installed state, the workpiece placed on the positioning fixture presses against the bearing platform, thus cleverly pressing the bearing platform so that it does not move with the piston assembly.
[0027] In some embodiments, the sealing installation device further includes a clamping mechanism disposed relative to the positioning fixture and movable toward the positioning fixture.
[0028] The clamping mechanism can clamp the workpiece placed on the positioning fixture.
[0029] In some embodiments, the seal is a rectangular ring, and the workpiece is a brake caliper.
[0030] Thus, the aforementioned sealing installation equipment enables the automatic, efficient, and accurate installation of the rectangular ring of the brake caliper.
[0031] The beneficial effects of this invention compared to the prior art include at least the following:
[0032] The sealing component installation device of the present invention, through the cooperation of the deformation mechanism and the piston assembly, in the deformation state, the deformation head presses the sealing component into the clamping space, and the clamping component clamps the compressed sealing component to keep the sealing component deformed and storing force; in the installation state, the piston assembly extends into the installation hole of the workpiece as a whole, and then the piston drives the clamping component to release, so that the compressed sealing component springs back into the installation groove of the installation hole, thus completing the installation of the sealing component automatically, efficiently and accurately.

[0048] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments of the present invention and the features in different embodiments can be combined with each other.
[0049] The sealing component installation device provided by this invention can automatically, efficiently, and accurately install sealing components into the mounting grooves of mounting holes on workpieces. The sealing component can be, for example, a rectangular ring or an O-ring, and the workpiece can be any workpiece that requires the installation of a sealing component.
[0050] Figure 1 This illustrates the structure of the sealing element installation device in an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2 This illustrates the structure of the piston assembly and deformation head in the seal mounting device. Figure 3 The cross-sectional view of the piston assembly is shown. Figure 4 This illustrates the structure of the piston assembly extending into the mounting hole of the workpiece in the installed state; combined with Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the sealing element installation device provided in this embodiment of the invention includes:
[0051] Piston assembly 10 includes piston 11 and clamping member 12 connected to piston 11;
[0052] The deformation mechanism 20 has a deformation head 22 that can move toward the clamping member 12;
[0053] The sealing installation device has a deformed state and an installed state. In the deformed state, the deforming head 22 presses the sealing element 36 into the clamping space 120 of the clamping member 12, and the piston 11 drives the clamping member 12 to clamp the compressed sealing element 36.
[0054] In the installed state, the piston assembly 10 extends into the mounting hole 33 of the workpiece 30, and the piston 11 drives the clamping member 12 to release, so that the compressed seal 36 springs back into the mounting groove 35 of the mounting hole 33.
[0055] The aforementioned sealing component installation equipment, through the cooperation of the deformation mechanism 20 and the piston assembly 10, allows the deformation head 22 to press the sealing component 36 into the clamping space 120 in the deformed state, where the clamping member 12 clamps the compressed sealing component 36 to maintain the deformation and store force. In the installation state, the piston assembly 10 extends entirely into the mounting hole 33 of the workpiece 30. At this time, the piston 11 drives the clamping member 12 to release, and the compressed sealing component 36 can automatically spring back into the mounting groove 35 of the mounting hole 33. Thus, the installation of the sealing component 36 is completed automatically, efficiently, and accurately.
[0056] Figure 5 The structure of the piston assembly and deformation head is shown, but the pressure plate of the piston assembly is omitted. Figure 6 The structure of the pressure plate is shown; combined with Figures 1 to 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the piston 11 is housed in the piston housing 13, and the clamping member 12 includes a support shaft 121 fixed to the end face of the piston housing 13 and a pressure plate 122 movably sleeved on the support shaft 121, the pressure plate 122 being connected to the piston 11.
[0057] The pressure plate 122 can be provided with a guide hole 122a and an assembly hole 122b. The pressure plate 122 is connected to the piston 11 through the assembly hole 122b and the support shaft 121 is sleeved through the guide hole 122a. The support shaft 121 supports the compressed seal 36; the piston 11 drives the pressure plate 122 to press down / release the compressed seal 36, realizing the deformation retention and springback installation of the seal 36.
[0058] Figure 7 The structure of the seal before deformation is shown. Figure 8 The structure of the seal after deformation is shown; combined with Figures 1 to 8As shown, in some embodiments, the pressure plate 122 is provided with a fork groove 220 adapted to the deformation head 22; in the deformed state, the deformation head 22 first pushes the seal 36 into the clamping space 120 until the seal 36 is tightened on the support shaft 121, then the clamping member 12 clamps the compressed seal 36 and the fork groove 220 avoids the deformation head 22, and then the deformation head 22 returns to its original position to leave the clamping space 120.
[0059] Through the cooperation of the pressure plate 122 and the deformation head 22, during the deformation of the seal 36, the deformation head 22 first pushes the seal 36 into the clamping space 120, causing the seal 36 to be taut against the support shaft 121 and undergo a preset deformation. Then, the piston 11 drives the pressure plate 122 to press the compressed seal 36. At this time, the fork groove 220 avoids the deformation head 22, ensuring the clamping of the clamping member 12. Then, the deformation head 22 returns to its original position, thus keeping the seal 36 deformed and storing force. The deformation mechanism 20 can be a deformation cylinder to drive the deformation head 22 to extend and retract quickly.
[0060] Before deformation, the outer diameter of the seal 36 is larger than the diameter of the mounting hole 33 of the workpiece 30. After deformation, the diameter of the maximum outer contour of the seal 36 is smaller than the diameter of the mounting hole 33 of the workpiece 30.
[0061] In some embodiments, the side of the pressure plate 122 facing the clamping space 120 is provided with a receiving groove (not specifically shown in the figure) adapted to the compressed seal 36; in the deformed state, the receiving groove receives the compressed seal 36, wherein the opening of the receiving groove is funnel-shaped.
[0062] The compressed seal 36 is accommodated through the receiving groove of the pressure plate 122, and the opening of the receiving groove is funnel-shaped to prevent the seal 36 from getting stuck and unable to spring back when the pressure plate 122 is released.
[0063] In some embodiments, the support shaft 121 and the deformation head 22 each include a plurality of shafts that are evenly distributed circumferentially. For example, the support shaft 121 may include four shafts that are evenly distributed circumferentially, and the deformation head 22 may include two shafts that are evenly distributed circumferentially, but this is not a limitation.
[0064] Multiple support shafts 121, evenly spaced circumferentially, ensure that the pre-defined deformation of the seal 36 is centrally symmetrical, resulting in uniform force accumulation in the compressed seal 36. This allows it to stably enter the mounting groove 35 upon rebound. Furthermore, the support shafts 121 also limit the movement of the pressure plate 122, ensuring it only moves axially along the support shafts 121 following the piston 11, preventing rotation or radial movement. Multiple deformation heads 22, also evenly spaced circumferentially, drive the seal 36 to be taut against the support shafts 121.
[0065] In some embodiments, a cover plate 123 is provided on the end face of the piston housing 13, and a support shaft 121 is fixedly inserted into the cover plate 123; and a pressure plate 122 is connected to the piston 11 by a fastener 14.
[0066] The cover plate 123 facilitates the installation of the support shaft 121; the pressure plate 122 is connected to the piston 11 by the fastener 14, which facilitates the installation of the pressure plate 122; the support shaft 121 and the pressure plate 122 can also be easily replaced according to different deformation requirements of the seal 36.
[0067] In some embodiments, the piston 11 is housed in a piston chamber, which is divided by the piston 11 into a first chamber 110a and a second chamber 110b, and the first chamber 110a and the second chamber 110b are respectively provided with air inlets.
[0068] For details, please refer to Figure 3 As shown, when air enters through the air inlet 110a' of the first chamber 110a, the piston 11 moves downward in the piston chamber, causing the pressure plate 122 to press down, thus clamping the clamping member 12. When air enters through the air inlet 110b' of the second chamber 110b, the piston 11 moves upward in the piston chamber, causing the pressure plate 122 to release upward, thus releasing the clamping member 12. The piston 11 and the inner wall of the piston housing 13 are sealed together by a sealing ring 15.
[0069] Figure 9 The structure of the piston assembly, the support platform, and the mounting drive mechanism are shown; combined with Figures 1 to 9 As shown, in some embodiments, the sealing device further includes a support platform 40 for placing the sealing element 36, the support platform 40 being fitted around the piston assembly 10 and not moving with the piston assembly 10.
[0070] In the initial state, the undeformed seal 36 is placed on the support platform 40. After the seal 36 deforms, it no longer contacts the support platform 40, but is supported by the cover plate 123 of the clamping member 12. The support platform 40 does not move with the piston assembly 10, so that the outer contour of the piston assembly 10 can be adapted as closely as possible to the mounting hole 33 of the workpiece 30. This allows the piston assembly 10 to move until the seal 36 is close to the mounting groove 35 in the installed state, so that when the pressure plate 122 of the clamping member 12 is released, the seal 36 can smoothly spring back into the mounting groove 35.
[0071] In some embodiments, the sealing installation device further includes: an installation drive mechanism 50 connected to the piston assembly 10 via an installation plate 52, the installation drive mechanism 50 being able to drive the piston assembly 10 to move; a guide post 53 connected to the installation plate 52, and a support platform 40 including a connecting handle 44, the connecting handle 44 being movably sleeved on the guide post 53.
[0072] The drive mechanism 50 is installed, for example, a drive cylinder or other suitable drive mechanism. By installing the drive mechanism 50, the piston assembly 10 is driven to move; the connecting handle 44 of the bearing platform 40 is movably sleeved through the guide post 53, so that the bearing platform 40 is gapped outside the piston assembly 10 and does not move with the piston assembly 10.
[0073] In some embodiments, a linear bearing 55 is sleeved on the guide post 53, the linear bearing 55 is supported on the mounting plate 52 by a spring 56, and the connecting handle 44 is sleeved on the linear bearing 55.
[0074] The connecting handle 44 is made to float relative to the mounting plate 52 by means of the linear bearing 55 and the spring 56, so that the bearing platform 40 does not move with the piston assembly 10 by means of the floating of the connecting handle 44 in the installation state, thus avoiding the mounting hole 33 of the workpiece 30.
[0075] The guide column 53 and the linear bearing 55 may each include two to ensure the stability of the bearing platform 40.
[0076] Figure 10 This illustrates the structure in which the workpiece is placed on the positioning fixture of the seal installation equipment; combined with Figures 1 to 10 As shown, in some embodiments, the sealing installation device further includes: a positioning fixture 60 for placing the workpiece 30; in the installed state, the workpiece 30 placed on the positioning fixture 60 presses against the bearing platform 40.
[0077] In the installed state, the workpiece 30 placed on the positioning fixture 60 presses against the bearing platform 40, thus cleverly pressing the bearing platform 40 so that the bearing platform 40 does not move with the piston assembly 10.
[0078] In some embodiments, the sealing installation device further includes a clamping mechanism 70, which is disposed relative to the positioning fixture 60 and is movable toward the positioning fixture 60.
[0079] The clamping mechanism 70 is, for example, a clamping cylinder, which is connected to a workpiece pressure plate 77. The clamping mechanism 70 can drive the workpiece pressure plate 77 to clamp the workpiece 30 placed on the positioning fixture 60.
[0080] Figure 11 This illustrates the structure of a rectangular ring mounted in a brake caliper; combined with Figures 1 to 11 As shown, in a specific example, seal 36 is a rectangular ring, and workpiece 30 is a brake caliper. Figures 1 to 11 The seal 36 shown is a rectangular ring, and the workpiece 30 is a brake caliper. The process of installing the rectangular ring in the brake caliper using the seal installation equipment provided by this invention specifically includes:
[0081] The undeformed rectangular ring is placed on the support platform 40 manually or by a robotic arm. The deformation mechanism 20 drives the deformation head 22 to translate, causing the rectangular ring to deform until it is taut against the support shaft 121. Then, the piston 11 drives the pressure plate 122 to press down, clamping the rectangular ring and keeping it in a deformed state. The deformation head 22 can then retract. Next, the brake caliper is placed on the positioning fixture 60, and then the clamping mechanism 70 is activated to clamp the brake caliper. Finally, the installation drive mechanism 50 drives the piston assembly 10 to move into the cylinder bore of the brake caliper. When the piston assembly 10 reaches its position, the rectangular ring is exactly in the rectangular groove. At this time, the piston 11 drives the pressure plate 122 to release the rectangular ring. After losing the clamping force, the rectangular ring can automatically insert itself into the rectangular groove by its own elasticity.
[0082] Thus, the sealing installation device provided by this invention enables automatic, efficient, and accurate installation of the rectangular ring of the brake caliper.
[0083] Of course, the present invention is not limited thereto. In any scenario where it is necessary to install the seal 36 in the mounting groove 35 of the mounting hole 33 of the workpiece 30, the seal installation equipment provided by the present invention can be used.
[0084] The above description, in conjunction with specific preferred embodiments, provides a further detailed explanation of the present invention. It should not be construed that the specific implementation of the present invention is limited to these descriptions. For those skilled in the art, various simple deductions or substitutions can be made without departing from the concept of the present invention, and all such modifications and substitutions should be considered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
