The transfer device 5 drives the clamp 54 to pass through the pipe feeding device 1, the pipe pressing device 3, the plug feeding device 2, the plug pressing device 4, the plug extruding device 6 and the discharging device 7 in turn. The controller is arranged on the assembly machine, and each device is monitored and controlled through the controller, so that each device has good linkage.

[0044] The pipe feeding device 1 comprises a first vibration disc 11, a first feeding guide rail 12 and an integrated feeding mechanism 13. The integrated feeding mechanism 13 comprises a rack 131, a detection assembly 132, a pushing assembly 133, a positioning assembly 134, a discharging assembly 135, a cutoff assembly 136 and a receiving assembly 137.

The positioning seat 134b is provided with a positioning through slot 1301 corresponding to the first feeding guide rail 12. The positioning plate 134c is fixed to the positioning seat 134b and covers the positioning through slot 1301. The positioning plate 134c is made of transparent material. Under the action of the first vibration disc 11, the pipes enter the positioning through slots 1301 on the positioning seat 134b through the first feeding guide rail 12. At this time, the blocking columns 135c on one side of the discharging assembly 135 correspond to the positioning through slots 1301 and block the pipes, so that the pipes are not easy to fall when pushed into the positioning through slots 1301. The positioning plate 134c limits the pipes in the positioning through slots 1301. The first air cylinder 134a can drive the positioning seat 134b to move upward, so that the pushing assembly 133 pushes the pipes in the positioning through slots 1301 into the discharging assembly 135.

[0046] The pushing assembly 133 comprises a second cylinder 133a fixed to the frame 131, a pushing head 133b fixedly connected to the output end of the second cylinder 133a, and a pushing rod 133c fixed to the pushing head 133b.

Since the two ends of the pipe are of different sizes, the end with the larger opening needs to be uniformly directed upward before being sent into the discharging channel 1302. Therefore, the shooting camera 132b shoots the condition of the pipe and feeds back to the controller, and then the controller controls the cutting assembly 136 to cut and adjust the corresponding pipe.

[0048] The flash 132c irradiates the pipe in the positioning channel 1301, and the shooting camera 132b is driven by the sliding frame 132a to slide in the arrangement direction of the pipes and shoot the arrangement condition of the pipes. Finally, the shooting camera 132b feeds back the condition of the pipes to the controller.

[0049] The discharging assembly 135 comprises a baffle 135a, a plurality of partitions 135b, and a plurality of blocking columns 135c. The plurality of partitions 135b are arranged in sequence, and two blocking columns 135c are fixed between adjacent two partitions 135b to form a discharging channel 1302. The baffle 135a is fixed to the top of the plurality of partitions 135b and forms a plurality of through holes 1303 with the plurality of blocking columns 135c. The cutting assembly 136 comprises a plurality of cutting members corresponding to the plurality of through holes 1303.

The sixth driving member 77a is fixed on the base 51, the material lifting head 77b is fixedly connected with the output end of the sixth driving member 77a, and the plurality of material lifting rods 77c are fixed on the material lifting head 77b. The sixth driving member 77a can drive the material lifting rods 77c to extend into the positioning hole 501.

[0062] After the clamp 54 carrying the assembled finished product moves to the blanking device 7, the fourth driving member 73 drives the sliding seat 72 to move towards the clamp 54, and then the fifth driving member 74 drives the mechanical arm 75 to move downwards. At the same time, the sixth driving member 77a drives the material lifting rods 77c to move upwards and extend into the positioning hole 501 to lift the finished product out of the positioning hole 501. Then the mechanical arm 75 is started and clamps the finished product outside the positioning hole 501. Then the fifth driving member 74 drives the mechanical arm 75 to move upwards and reset, the fourth driving member 73 drives the sliding seat 72 to move above the blanking disc 76, the mechanical arm 75 releases the finished product, and the finished product falls onto the blanking disc 76, thereby completing the assembly and blanking of the pipe bending and plug.

[0063] The above only describes the preferred embodiments of the present application and should not be used to limit the present application. Any common changes and replacements within the technical scheme of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
