[0019] To make the above-mentioned objects, features, and advantages of the present invention more apparent and understandable, specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Many specific details are set forth in the following description to provide a thorough understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention can be practiced in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar modifications without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0020] It should be noted that when an element is said to be "fixed to" another element, it can be directly on the other element or there may be an intervening element. When an element is said to be "connected to" another element, it can be directly connected to the other element or there may be an intervening element. Conversely, when an element is said to be "directly on" another element, there is no intervening element. The terms "vertical," "horizontal," "left," "right," and similar expressions used in this document are for illustrative purposes only.

[0021] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. The terminology used herein in the description of the invention is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention. The term "and / or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0022] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 A phaser rotor and locating pin assembly machine, comprising: 100 per machine; An identification and degreasing mechanism 200 is used to identify the model of the rotor and to degrease the assembly holes on the rotor; A press-fitting mechanism 300 is used to press the locating pin into the assembly hole of the rotor; A testing agency 400 is used to test the positioning pins after pressing. A conveyor mechanism 500 is used to transport assembled good and defective products; The oil removal mechanism 200, the pressing mechanism 300, the detection mechanism 400 and the conveying mechanism 500 are respectively installed on the machine base 100 and arranged in sequence along the assembly direction of the rotor and the positioning pin.

[0023] Specifically, in this embodiment, the rotor is manually placed onto the identification and degreasing mechanism 200. The identification and degreasing mechanism 200 first identifies the model of the rotor. If the identification is correct, the assembly holes on the rotor are degreased. After degreasing, the rotor and positioning pin are manually placed onto the pressing mechanism 300. The pressing mechanism 300 presses the positioning pin into the assembly holes of the rotor, realizing automatic pressing. After the positioning pin is pressed onto the rotor, the detection mechanism 400 detects the pressing height of the positioning pin and the model of the pressed positioning pin. After the detection is completed, the conveying mechanism 500 automatically conveys the good or defective products. Finally, the identification and degreasing mechanism 200, the pressing mechanism 300, the detection mechanism 400 and the conveying mechanism 500 enable the rotor and positioning pin to achieve automatic pressing and automatic transmission, resulting in high assembly efficiency and good assembly quality.

[0024] Please see Figures 3 to 5 To improve the assembly quality of the rotor and the positioning pin, the identification and degreasing mechanism 200 in this embodiment includes a lower degreasing assembly 210, a degreasing fixture 220, and an identification component 230. The degreasing fixture 220 is mounted on the lower degreasing assembly 210 and has a first positioning mandrel 221 and a first limiting post 222. The identification component 230 is located on one side of the degreasing fixture 220. The lower degreasing assembly 210 includes a fixed base 211, a lifting bracket 212, a first cylinder 213, a first rotary motor 214, and a first air blowing seat 215. The lifting bracket 212 and the first cylinder 213 are respectively mounted on the fixed base 211. The first cylinder 213 is connected to the lifting bracket 212 and drives the lifting bracket 212 to slide on the fixed seat 211. The first rotary motor 214 is mounted on the lifting bracket 212. The first air blowing seat 215 is connected to the first rotary motor 214 and is located below the degreasing fixture 220. The first rotary motor 214 drives the first air blowing seat 215 to rotate. The identification component 230 includes a second cylinder 231 and an identification module 232. The second cylinder 231 is connected to the identification module 232 and drives the identification module 232 to move closer to or away from the degreasing fixture 220 to identify the model of the rotor on the degreasing fixture 220.

[0025] Because the rotor in the phaser is a metal product, it is coated with anti-rust oil during the production process. Therefore, before assembling the rotor with the positioning pin, the assembly holes on the rotor need to be degreased. At the same time, there are various models of rotors in the phaser, and identification holes are set on the side wall. The location of the identification holes is different for each model. Therefore, it is also necessary to identify the model of the rotor by identifying the location of the identification holes.

[0026] When identifying and degreasing the rotor, the rotor is first placed manually onto the degreasing fixture 220. The first positioning mandrel 221 on the degreasing fixture 220 positions the rotor, while the first limiting post 222 on the degreasing fixture 220 limits the direction of the rotor to ensure that the rotor direction is consistent. Then, the second cylinder 231 drives the identification module 232 to move towards the rotor to identify the identification hole on the side wall of the rotor. If the identification hole is detected, it means that the rotor model is correct. If the identification hole is not detected, it means that the rotor model is incorrect. The rotor is then removed manually and the next rotor is placed to ensure that the rotor models are consistent.

[0027] Once the rotor is correctly identified, the two assembly holes at the bottom of the rotor will be degreased. At this time, the first cylinder 213 drives the lifting bracket 212 to rise, thereby raising the first rotary motor 214 and the first air blowing seat 215, and moving the first air blowing seat 215 to a set position. The air nozzle on the first air blowing seat 215 blows and then sucks into one of the assembly holes to remove oil. After the oil removal of this assembly hole is completed, the first rotary motor 214 drives the first air blowing seat 215 to rotate, causing the air nozzle on the first air blowing seat 215 to rotate to the other assembly hole, and similarly blows and sucks into this assembly hole to remove oil. Finally, the oil removal of the two assembly holes at the bottom of the rotor is completed, so that the subsequent assembly quality of the rotor is better when assembling the positioning pin.

[0028] In addition, since the rotor models are different, the top of the rotor also has an assembly hole. Therefore, it is necessary to remove oil from it. Thus, in this embodiment, the oil removal mechanism 200 also includes an upper oil removal group 240, which includes a column 241, a third cylinder 242, and a second air blowing seat 243. The third cylinder 242 is mounted on the column 241, and the second air blowing seat 243 is connected to the third cylinder 242 and located above the oil removal fixture 220. The third cylinder 242 drives the second air blowing seat 243 to move up and down. When removing oil from the top of the rotor, the third cylinder 242 drives the second air blowing seat 243 to move down. After moving to the set position, the air nozzle on the second air blowing seat 243 blows and then sucks into the assembly hole on the top, thereby removing oil from the assembly hole on the top of the rotor, which is convenient for subsequent assembly. Since there is only one assembly hole on the top, the second air blowing seat 243 does not need to rotate.

[0029] Please see Figures 6 to 9In this embodiment, the pressing mechanism 300 includes a fourth cylinder 310, a linear guide rail 320, a movable seat 330, a pressing fixture 340, and a pressing assembly 350. At least two movable seats 330 are provided and are disposed on the linear guide rail 320 and connected to the fourth cylinder 310. The fourth cylinder 310 drives the movable seat 330 to slide on the linear guide rail 320. The pressing fixture 340 is disposed on the movable seat 330, and the pressing assembly 350 presses the rotor and positioning pin on the pressing fixture 340.

[0030] Because two different types of positioning pins need to be assembled on the rotor, and in order to improve assembly efficiency, the movable seat 330 in this embodiment is provided in two sets, but is not limited to two sets. Pressing fixtures 340 are respectively provided on the two sets of movable seats 330. During assembly, one of the positioning pins and the rotor is placed on the first set of pressing fixtures 340, and then the fourth cylinder 310 drives the movable seat 330 to move, so that the first set of pressing fixtures 340 moves to below the pressing component 350. The pressing component 350 presses down to press the positioning pin into the assembly hole of the rotor. When the first set of pressing fixtures 340 is pressing, the other positioning pin and the rotor are manually placed on the second set of pressing fixtures 340. After the first set of pressing fixtures 340 is finished, the fourth cylinder 310 drives the second set of pressing fixtures 340 to move to below the pressing component 350 to press the positioning pin and the rotor of the second set. This process is repeated to improve the assembly efficiency of the rotor and the positioning pin.

[0031] Please see Figures 7 to 9 The pressing fixture 340 includes a base plate 341, a fixing plate 342, and a fixture plate 343. The fixing plate 342 is mounted on the base plate 341. The fixture plate 343 is connected to the fixing plate 342 via guide posts 344. A spring 345 is sleeved on the guide post 344, and the two ends of the spring 345 abut against the fixture plate 343 and the fixing plate 342, respectively. The fixing plate 342 is also provided with a limiting block 346 and a ejector pin 347. The fixture plate 341... The upper part is provided with a second positioning mandrel 348, a second limiting post 349 and a press-fitting hole, and the top end of the ejector pin 347 is located in the press-fitting hole; the pressing assembly 350 includes a pressing seat 351, a driving member 352 and a pressing head 353. The driving member 352 is disposed on the pressing seat 351, and the pressing head 353 is connected to the driving member 352 and is located above the pressing fixture 340. The driving member 352 drives the pressing head 353 to move downward to press the rotor.

[0032] During assembly, the operator first places the positioning pin into the pressing hole on the fixture plate 343, then places the rotor onto the fixture plate 343 and positions it using the second positioning mandrel 348. Simultaneously, the second limiting post 349 limits the rotor's direction, ensuring the rotor's assembly hole aligns with the positioning pin. Then, the drive unit 352 activates, driving the pressing head 353 to press the rotor downwards, causing the fixture plate 343 to press downwards. The ejector pin 347 then pushes the positioning pin from the pressing hole into the rotor's assembly hole, thus completing the automatic pressing. The limiting block 346 limits the downward pressing height of the fixture plate 343. After pressing, the pressing head 353 resets, and the fixture plate 343 resets under the action of the spring 345, facilitating the pressing of the next rotor with the positioning pin. Ultimately, automatic pressing is achieved, ensuring the pressing height of the positioning pin and improving pressing quality and efficiency.

[0033] Please see Figures 10 to 13 The detection mechanism 400 includes a fifth cylinder 410, a detection seat 420, a detection bracket 430, and a detection component 440. The fifth cylinder 410 is connected to the detection seat 420 and drives the detection seat 420 to move. The detection component 440 is disposed on the detection seat 420 and located above the detection bracket 430. The detection component 440 includes a sixth cylinder 441, a second rotary motor 442, a detection module 443, a seventh cylinder 444, and a detection fork 445. The sixth cylinder 441 is disposed on the top of the detection seat 420 and drives the second rotary motor 442 to slide up and down. The detection module 443 is connected to the second rotary motor 442, and the second rotary motor 442 drives the detection module 443 to rotate. The seventh cylinder 444 is located in the middle of the detection seat 420. The detection fork 445 is connected to the seventh cylinder 444, and the seventh cylinder 444 drives the detection fork 445 to move closer to or away from the detection bracket 430. A U-shaped fork 446 is provided at the end of the detection fork 445.

[0034] After the positioning pin and rotor are pressed together, the pressed rotor is manually flipped and placed on the detection bracket 430 in the detection mechanism 400. The detection bracket 430 also limits the direction of the rotor. Then, the seventh cylinder 444 drives the detection fork 445 to move towards the detection bracket 430 and detects the diameter of one of the positioning pins through the U-shaped fork 446 of the detection fork 445. If the positioning pin can be inserted into the U-shaped fork 446, the detection is qualified. If the positioning pin cannot be inserted into the U-shaped fork 446, the detection is unqualified. In this embodiment, the detection fork 445 only needs to detect the diameter of one of the positioning pins, and the other positioning pin does not need to be detected.

[0035] After the diameter of the locating pin is detected, the sixth cylinder 441 drives the second rotary motor 442 to move downward, so that the detection module 443 can detect the height of one of the locating pins. After the height of this locating pin is detected, the second rotary motor 442 drives the detection module 443 to rotate and detect the height of the other locating pin. Finally, the diameter of one of the locating pins is detected by the detection fork 445. At the same time, the height of both locating pins is detected by the detection module 443, thereby improving the assembly quality between the locating pins and the rotor.

[0036] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 14 After the rotor and positioning pin have completed the inspection, the good and defective products need to be transferred. In order to achieve automatic transfer, the conveying mechanism 500 in this embodiment includes a clamping assembly 510, a good product conveyor belt 520 and a defective product conveyor belt 530, and the good product conveyor belt 520 and the defective product conveyor belt 530 are arranged perpendicularly. The clamping assembly 510 includes a horizontal transmission group 511, an L-shaped fixing block 512, a vertical transmission group 513 and a clamping group 514. The L-shaped fixing block 512 is disposed on the horizontal transmission group 511, and the vertical transmission group 513 is connected to the L-shaped fixing block 512. The horizontal transmission group 511 drives the vertical transmission group 513 to move horizontally through the L-shaped fixing block 512. The clamping group 514 is connected to the vertical transmission group 513, and the vertical transmission group 513 drives the clamping group 514 to move vertically.

[0037] After the rotor is assembled with the positioning pin and is detected as a good product, the fifth cylinder 410 drives the detection seat 420 to move backward to avoid interference with the clamping assembly 510. The clamping group 514, under the action of the horizontal transmission group 511 and the vertical transmission group 513, moves to the detection bracket 430 to clamp the rotor after inspection, and then moves to the good product conveyor belt 520 to place the rotor on the good product conveyor belt 520 for automatic transfer. When the rotor is detected as a defective product, similarly, under the action of the horizontal transmission group 511 and the vertical transmission group 513, the clamping group 514 places the defective product on the defective product conveyor belt 530 for automatic transfer. Finally, the automatic transport of the rotor is achieved, thereby improving efficiency. In addition, the good product conveyor belt 520 and the defective product conveyor belt 530 are set perpendicularly to avoid mutual interference and make the layout of the conveying mechanism 500 reasonable.

[0038] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this invention.
