Then, the first translational push rod 6 pushes the diaphragm 24 from the connecting plate 5 into the housing 25 on the second feeding rail 4 to form the assembled sensor semi-finished product 26.
[0029] Then, by moving and retracting the second translational push rod 7, the sensor semi-finished product 26 is moved forward a certain distance. Then, the stop block 8 blocks the sensor semi-finished product 26, placing it on the second feeding rail 4 between the second translational push rod 7 and the linear feeding plate 9. Finally, the second translational push rod 7 pushes the sensor semi-finished product 26 through the opening 10 onto the linear feeding plate 9, realizing the assembly and feeding of the sensor semi-finished product 26, improving the degree of automation, high assembly accuracy and high yield, fast assembly speed, and thus improving production efficiency.

[0032] The purpose is to drive the first slider 1102 to slide along the first slide rail 1103 via the first cylinder 1101, thereby driving the first translational push rod 6 to move horizontally, so as to push the diaphragm 24 from the connecting piece 5 into the housing 25. The second slider 1202 is driven to slide along the second slide rail 1203 via the second cylinder 1201, thereby driving the second translational push rod 7 to move horizontally, so as to push the sensor semi-finished product 26 through the opening 10 onto the linear feed tray 9, thereby further improving the degree of automation.
[0033] To improve structural stability, this embodiment preferably includes a base plate 13 and a side plate 14. The side plate 14 is vertically connected to the top of the base plate 13.

[0034] In order to facilitate the increase of the conveying speed of the diaphragm 24, in this embodiment, preferably, the bottom of the first feeding rail 3 is connected to a first linear vibrating feeder 15. The purpose is to drive the first feeding rail 3 to vibrate through the first linear vibrating feeder 15, so that the diaphragm 24 moves forward in a straight line on the first feeding rail 3, thereby increasing the conveying speed of the diaphragm 24 and thus improving production efficiency.
[0035] In order to facilitate increasing the conveying speed of the outer casing 25, in this embodiment, preferably, a second linear vibrating feeder 16 is connected to the bottom of the second feeding rail 4. The purpose is to drive the second feeding rail 4 to vibrate through the second linear vibrating feeder 16, so that the outer casing 25 moves forward in a straight line on the second feeding rail 4, thereby increasing the conveying speed of the outer casing 25 and thus improving production efficiency.
[0036] In order to prevent the diaphragm 24 from falling off the first feeding rail 3, in this embodiment, preferably, the top two sides of the first feeding rail 3 are provided with first limiting protrusions 17.

The second feeding rail 4 is arranged in a "Y" shape, and the top of the second feeding rail 4 is provided with a limiting protrusion 19. The limiting protrusion 19, which is arranged in a "V" shape, divides the multiple shells 25 into two conveying paths for conveying. This, in conjunction with the two conveying paths of the diaphragm 24, achieves the effect of dual-station assembly, thereby improving production efficiency. The second limiting protrusion 18 limits the shells 25 to prevent them from falling off the second feeding rail 4, thereby improving production reliability.
[0039] To facilitate extending the conveying distance of the outer casing 25, in this embodiment, preferably, a third feeding rail 20 is provided between the second feeding rail 4 and the discharge end of the second vibrating feeding plate 2. The top two sides of the third feeding rail 20 are provided with third limiting protrusions 21, and the bottom of the third feeding rail 20 is connected to a third linear vibrating feeder 22. The purpose is to extend the conveying distance of the outer casing 25 by setting the third feeding rail 20, and to drive the third feeding rail 20 to vibrate by the third linear vibrating feeder 22, so that the outer casing 25 moves forward in a straight line on the third feeding rail 20, thereby increasing the conveying speed of the outer casing 25 and thus improving production efficiency. The third limiting protrusions 21 limit the outer casing 25 to prevent it from falling off the third feeding rail 20, ensuring that the outer casing 25 is conveyed in a straight line and improving production reliability.
[0040] In order to facilitate the increase of the conveying speed of the sensor semi-finished product 26, in this embodiment, preferably, a fourth linear vibrating feeder 23 is connected to the bottom of the linear feeder 9. The purpose is to drive the linear feeder 9 to vibrate through the fourth linear vibrating feeder 23, so that the sensor semi-finished product 26 moves forward in a straight line on the linear feeder 9, thereby increasing the conveying speed of the sensor semi-finished product 26 and thus improving production efficiency.
[0041] The working principle and usage process of this invention are as follows: The diaphragm 24 is vibrated and discharged by the first vibrating feeding plate 1, so that the diaphragm 24 enters the first feeding rail 3 from the first vibrating feeding plate 1. The first linear vibrating feeder 15 drives the first feeding rail 3 to vibrate, so that the diaphragm 24 moves forward linearly on the first feeding rail 3. The outer shell 25 is vibrated and discharged by the second vibrating feeding plate 2, so that the outer shell 25 enters the third feeding rail 20 from the second vibrating feeding plate 2. The third linear vibrating feeder 22 drives the third feeding rail 20 to vibrate, so that the outer shell 25 moves forward linearly on the third feeding rail 20 and enters the second feeding rail 4. Then, the second linear vibrating feeder 16 drives the second feeding rail 4 to vibrate, so that the outer shell 25 moves forward linearly on the second feeding rail 4.
[0042] The multiple outer shells 25 are divided into two conveying paths by the limiting protrusions 19 arranged in a "V" shape, and the two diaphragm 24 conveying paths are used to achieve the effect of dual-station assembly, thereby improving production efficiency.
[0043] When the diaphragm 24 reaches the front end of the first feeding rail 3, the second translational push rod 7 blocks the diaphragm 24, so that the diaphragm 24 is placed on the connecting plate 5. Then, the first cylinder 1101 drives the first slider 1102 to slide along the first slide rail 1103, which drives the first translational push rod 6 to move horizontally. Then, the first translational push rod 6 pushes the diaphragm 24 from the connecting plate 5 into the housing 25 on the second feeding rail 4, forming the assembled sensor semi-finished product 26.
[0044] Then, the second cylinder 1201 drives the second translational push rod 7 to move and retract, causing the sensor semi-finished product 26 to move forward a certain distance. The stop block 8 then blocks the sensor semi-finished product 26, placing it on the second feeding rail 4 between the second translational push rod 7 and the linear feeding disc 9. Next, the second cylinder 1201 drives the second slider 1202 to slide along the second slide rail 1203, causing the second translational push rod 7 to move horizontally. The second translational push rod 7 then pushes the sensor semi-finished product 26 through the opening 10 onto the linear feeding disc 9, achieving the assembly and feeding of the sensor semi-finished product 26. Finally, the fourth linear vibrating feeder 23 drives the linear feeding disc 9 to vibrate, causing the sensor semi-finished product 26 to move linearly forward on the linear feeding disc 9, increasing the conveying speed of the sensor semi-finished product 26, thereby improving production efficiency, automation, assembly accuracy, and yield. The assembly speed is fast, further enhancing production efficiency.
