Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of connecting rod tile assembly, and particularly relates to a connecting rod tile press-fitting device. Background Art
[0002] Each engine requires four connecting rods. Before assembling the connecting rods, the connecting rod bolts must be loosened, the connecting rod body and connecting rod cap must be disassembled, and the tiles must be press-fitted separately. Traditionally, worker 1 places the connecting rods one by one onto a line tray and scans the connecting rod QR code with a handheld barcode scanner. Four connecting rods of the same weight are grouped together. Worker 2 uses four different markers to color the joints between the connecting rod body and the connecting rod cap green, white, blue, and yellow, respectively. This ensures that the disassembled connecting rod body and connecting rod cap are installed in pairs, with fixed colors installed in fixed positions on the engine. Worker 3 places the connecting rods on a bolt disassembly machine, which manually operates the machine to loosen the connecting rod bolts. Only two connecting rods can be disassembled at a time. Worker 4 picks up the two disassembled connecting rod bodies and connecting rod caps and brings them to the press-fitting machine. Then, they manually place the four tiles into the press-fitting position, and the machine press-fits the tiles into the connecting rod body and connecting rod cap.
[0003] After the tile is press-fitted, it needs to be connected to the crank. If it is contaminated or damaged, it will affect the accuracy of the assembly. Currently, a relatively smooth and soft press head is used to contact the inner ring of the tile and press-fit the tile into the connecting rod body and connecting rod cap. The press head is easily contaminated by impurities and can easily scratch the inner ring of the tile. The press head must be replaced after a period of use, resulting in a short service life and affecting press-fitting efficiency. The current press-fitting method cannot guarantee press-fitting accuracy, and the rate of defective products is extremely high. Summary of the Invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0026] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, which are simplified schematic diagrams that illustrate the basic structure of the present invention in a schematic manner.
[0027] like Figure 1-Figure 5 The specific embodiment of the connecting rod tile pressing device of the present invention shown can set up two connecting rod tile pressing devices to simultaneously press the connecting rod body 81 and the connecting rod cover 82 of the connecting rod 8, and is equipped with two automatic tile loading mechanisms.
[0028] See also Figure 1-Figure 3The connecting rod tile press-fitting device includes: a press-fitting frame 61. A connecting rod body / connecting rod cover placement platform 60 is provided on the press-fitting frame, a press-fitting cylinder 62 is installed on the press-fitting frame 61, a first mounting frame 63 and a second mounting frame 64 are slidably installed on the press-fitting frame 61; the telescopic end of the press-fitting cylinder 62 is connected to the first mounting frame 63, and the second mounting frame 64 is provided near the connecting rod body / connecting rod cover placement platform 60. The upper end of the second mounting frame 64 is provided with a tile placement platform 614 and two guide bevels 65 arranged opposite to each other. The two guide bevels 65 are located above the left and right sides of the tile placement platform 614, and the closer to the connecting rod body 81 / connecting rod cover 82, the closer the distance between the two guide bevels 65 is. A third mounting bracket 66 is provided at the upper end of the first mounting bracket 63. A center block 67 is fixedly mounted at the front end of the third mounting bracket 66. A guide slot 660 extending in the left-right direction is provided at the front end of the third mounting bracket 66. Two side pressure blocks 68 are slidably connected within the guide slot 660. The two side pressure blocks 68 are symmetrically positioned on the left and right sides of the center block 67. Spring mounting holes are provided on the opposing sides of the center block 67 and the side pressure blocks 68. Second springs 69 are mounted within the spring mounting holes. The side pressure blocks 68 are snugly positioned between the two guide bevel blocks 65. An upper pressure block 610 is also provided on the upper side of the center block 67. The left and right sides of the upper pressure block 610 extend beyond the center block 67 to press against the upper end surface of the tile 15.
[0029] A first guide rod 611 is fixed to the second mounting bracket 64. The first guide rod 611 passes through the first mounting bracket 63. A first spring 612 is sleeved on the first guide rod 611 between the first mounting bracket 63 and the second mounting bracket 64. Of course, in other embodiments of the present invention, one end of the first guide rod 611 may be fixed to the first mounting bracket 63, and the other end may pass through the second mounting bracket 64, thereby achieving the same effect as in this embodiment.
[0030] A tile placement platform 614 is fixedly provided on the lower end surfaces of the two guide bevel blocks 65 , and a tile recognition sensor is provided at the center position of the tile placement platform 614 .
[0031] The inner ring of the tile 15 is used to mount the crank. To ensure precision, the inner ring of the tile should be kept away from contact during the press-fitting process. Manual press-fitting often involves contact with the inner ring of the tile. The press-fitting method designed in this application only contacts the end face of the tile and does not contaminate the inner ring of the tile at all.
[0032] The specific working process of pressing the connecting rod body 81 or the connecting rod cover 82 into the tile is as follows:
[0033] First, the pressing cylinder 62 extends and drives the first mounting bracket 63 and the second mounting bracket 64 to move closer to the connecting rod body / connecting rod cover placement platform 60 until the front end of the tile placement platform 614 abuts against the connecting rod body / connecting rod cover placement platform 60. At this time, the second mounting bracket 64 cannot continue to move forward, and the pressing cylinder 62 continues to extend, the first spring 612 is compressed, and the center block 67, the side pressure block 68 and the upper pressure block 610 continue to move forward. Specifically, the side pressure block 68 gradually compresses the second spring 69 inward as the distance between the two guide bevel blocks 65 gets closer and closer, and contacts the front end surface of the tile, pushing the tile forward gradually closer to the connecting rod body 81 / connecting rod cover 82, and at the same time, the tile is slightly rounded inward under the guidance of the two guide bevel blocks 65; at the same time, the upper pressure block 610 presses the tile from above to ensure that it does not pop up when pressed into the connecting rod body 81 or the connecting rod cover 82.
[0034] It should be explained that the tile is a metal sheet with a certain elasticity, which can ensure that it is tightly pressed into the connecting rod body 81 and the connecting rod cover 82.
[0035] This technical solution of the present invention realizes the two-step press-fitting of the tile, has a compact structure, and is easy to control. It can ensure that the inner ring surface of the tile will not be contaminated during the press-fitting process, and improves the coaxiality and symmetry of the tile and the connecting rod.
[0036] See also Figure 1 and Figure 4 、 Figure 5 The automatic tile loading mechanism is arranged on the side of the connecting rod tile pressing device, and is used to load tiles one by one onto the tile placement table 614. The automatic tile loading mechanism includes: a tile loading bracket 71, a conveying support frame 72 fixedly mounted above the tile loading bracket 71, a tile loading cylinder 73 mounted on the tile loading bracket 71, a driving pulley (not shown) rotatably mounted on one end of the conveying support frame 72, a driven pulley (not shown) rotatably mounted on the other end of the conveying support frame 72, a tile conveyor belt 76 for connecting the driving pulley and the driven pulley, and a rotating rod 78 mounted on the rotating shaft of the driving pulley through a one-way bearing 77; the tile loading bracket 71 is provided with a slide groove 710 parallel to the extension direction of the tile loading cylinder 73, and a first slider 79 and a second slider 711 are slidably mounted in the slide groove 710; the first slider 79 is fixedly connected to the extension shaft of the tile loading cylinder 73 through a first connecting rod 712. One end of the rotating rod 78 is mounted on the outer ring of the one-way bearing 77, and the other end has a third elongated hole 781 and is connected to the second slider 711 via the second connecting rod 713. A push rod 714 is fixedly mounted on the telescopic end of the tile feeding cylinder 73, and a third connecting rod 715 is mounted perpendicular to the push rod 714 at the end. The third connecting rod 715 is inserted into the third elongated hole 781.
[0037] The first slider 79 has a first long hole 791 , the second slider 711 has a second long hole 7111 , the first connecting rod 712 is inserted into the first long hole 791 , and the second connecting rod 713 is inserted into the second long hole 7111 .
[0038] The tile materials are manually placed on the tile conveyor belt 76. Two parallel support bars 716 are set on the inner side of the conveyor support frame 72. The left and right sides of the tile conveyor belt 76 are overlapped on the two support bars 716. The two support bars 716 assist in bearing the weight of the tiles 15.
[0039] Since the inner ring of the tile 15 is used to install the crank, a high degree of precision and cleanliness must be ensured. In order to prevent the tile 15 from being contaminated, a protective cover 717 made of organic glass is installed above the conveying support frame 72. The protective cover 717 is hinged to the conveying support frame 72.
[0040] A tile grabbing robot 718 is provided above the conveying support frame 72, and a limit block 719 made of soft material is provided at the front end of the conveying support frame 72. When the tile 15 reaches the limit block 719, the photoelectric sensor located on the tile grabbing robot 718 detects that the tile 15 is in place, grabs the tile 15 and places it on the tile placement table 614.
[0041] The automatic tile feeding mechanism works as follows: Each time the tile feeding cylinder 73 extends a fixed length, it pushes the push rod 714 forward, driving the rotating rod 78 to rotate. Simultaneously, under the action of the one-way bearing 77, the forward extension of the feeding cylinder 73 drives the rotating shaft of the driving pulley to rotate and transport the tiles toward the connecting rod tile pressing device, ensuring that the distance of each movement is the same. Due to the use of the one-way bearing 77, the driving pulley does not rotate when the feeding cylinder 73 retracts. The first slider 79 and the second slider 711 guide the extension of the feeding cylinder 73, ensuring the smooth extension and retraction of the feeding cylinder 73.
[0042] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described above are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Obvious changes or modifications derived from the spirit of the present invention are still within the scope of protection of the present invention.
