[0002] During motor assembly, a worm gear needs to be installed on the motor shaft. The existing assembly method involves manually placing the worm gear and motor onto their respective assembly carriers. The two carriers move forward to their designated positions, and the motor is then transported into the assembly cavity for positioning. A worm gear clamping device then installs the worm gear onto the motor shaft. Existing assembly equipment requires manual loading, posing certain safety hazards, and has low production efficiency and a low yield rate. Summary of the Invention

[0014] In one embodiment, the worm gear feeding assembly includes a vibratory feeding mechanism, a material distribution mechanism, an ejection mechanism, a mounting mechanism, and a pressing and positioning mechanism.

[0015] The material distribution mechanism is located on one side of the vibratory feeding mechanism. The material distribution mechanism includes a material distribution strip, which is mounted on the first guide rail assembly and connected to a material distribution cylinder. The front end of the material distribution strip has a through hole for receiving a worm gear. The material distribution mechanism is used to convey the worm gear to one side of the ejector mechanism.

[0016] The ejection mechanism is located on one side of the mounting mechanism. The ejection mechanism includes an ejection cylinder, a moving block, a lifting cylinder, an extension block, and a top column. The moving block is mounted on the second guide rail assembly and is connected to the ejection cylinder. The lifting cylinder is mounted on the moving block and is connected to the extension block. The top column is located at the end of the extension block.

[0017] The mounting mechanism includes a linear conveyor module, a base on the linear conveyor module, a mounting block on the base, and a receiving cavity on the mounting block for accommodating the worm gear.

[0018] The top column is used to push the worm gear in the through hole at the front end of the material distribution strip into the receiving cavity of the mounting block.

[0045] To make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0046] like Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment of this application provides a motor production apparatus, which includes: a tray conveying assembly 110, a motor handling assembly 120, a turntable assembly 130, a CCD detection assembly 140, a worm gear feeding assembly 150, and a barcode scanning unloading assembly 160.

[0047] The Tray conveying assembly 110 is used to convey a full Tray from the loading station 112 to the loading station 112 and to convey an empty Tray from the loading station 112 to the empty hopper 113. The motor handling assembly 120 is located on one side of the Tray conveying assembly 110. The motor handling assembly 120 is used to handle the motor in the Tray to the carrier 131 of the turntable assembly 130. The turntable assembly 130 is located on one side of the motor handling assembly 120. The turntable assembly 130 is provided with a plurality of carriers 131. The CCD detection assembly 140 is located on one side of the turntable assembly 130. The worm gear feeding assembly 150 is located on one side of the turntable assembly 130. The barcode scanning unloading assembly 160 is located on one side of the turntable assembly 130.

[0048] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the tray conveying assembly 110 has a full hopper 111 and an empty hopper 113. The full hopper 111 contains trays filled with motors, which are stacked. Each time, a tray is taken out from the full hopper 111 and conveyed to the loading station 112. At the loading station 112, the motor handling assembly 120 removes the motors one by one from the trays and conveys them to the empty carrier 131 on the turntable assembly 130. After all the motors of the trays at the loading station 112 have been removed, the empty trays are conveyed to the empty hopper 113, where they are stacked.

[0049] It should be noted that the aforementioned tray conveying assembly 110 can be implemented using existing tray conveying mechanisms. For example, the tray conveying assembly 110 includes a full hopper 111 and an empty hopper 113. A tray separating mechanism is provided at the full hopper 111, and a linear conveying mechanism is provided below the full hopper 111. The linear conveying mechanism is used to convey the tray between the full hopper 111, the loading station 112, and the empty hopper 113. Lifting mechanisms and tray positioning mechanisms are also provided at the full hopper 111, the loading station 112, and the empty hopper 113.

[0050] Specifically, in one embodiment, such as Figure 3 As shown, the motor handling assembly 120 is positioned above the loading station 112 of the tray conveying assembly 110. The motor handling assembly 120 includes a multi-dimensional moving module 121 and a gripper mechanism 122. The multi-dimensional moving module 121 is mounted above the loading station 112 of the tray conveying assembly 110. Through the cooperation of the multi-dimensional moving module 121 and the gripper mechanism 122, the motor on the tray is removed and placed on the carrier 131 of the turntable assembly 130. The multi-dimensional moving module 121 may include a motor-driven linear module and cylinders, etc.

[0051] In one embodiment, such as Figure 4As shown, the turntable assembly 130 includes a turntable mechanism with four carriers 131 mounted on it. Each carrier 131 sequentially passes through a motor transport assembly 120, a CCD detection assembly 140, a worm gear loading assembly 150, and a barcode scanning unloading assembly 160. Specifically, when a carrier 131 is located to one side of the motor transport assembly 120, the motor transport assembly 120 transports the motor from the tray to the carrier 131. Then, the carrier 131 carrying the motor passes through the CCD detection assembly 140, which takes a picture to check whether the motor's sealing ring on the carrier 131 is qualified. The CCD detection assembly 140 can consist of a CCD camera and a light source, etc. The quality of the motor's sealing ring is determined by comparing the photographed images. Next, the carrier 131 moves the motor to the worm gear loading assembly 150, where a worm gear is installed onto the motor shaft. After installation, the carrier 131 moves the motor to the barcode scanning and unloading assembly 160. The barcode scanning and unloading assembly 160 scans the motor and then unloads it. If the motor is an NG product, the barcode scanning and unloading assembly 160 transports the motor to the NG material box mechanism 170.

[0052] Specifically, in one embodiment, the motor production apparatus further includes an NG material box mechanism 170, which is disposed on one side of the barcode scanning and unloading assembly 160.

[0053] Specifically, such as Figure 8 As shown, the aforementioned NG material box mechanism 170 includes a chute and a storage box 172, with the chute disposed on one side of the storage box 172. Defective materials slide down the chute into the storage box 172.

[0054] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, the worm gear feeding assembly 150 includes a vibratory feeding mechanism, a material distribution mechanism, an ejection mechanism, an installation mechanism, and a pressing and positioning mechanism.

[0055] The material distribution mechanism is located on one side of the vibrating feeding mechanism. The material distribution mechanism includes a material distribution block 1522, which is mounted on the first guide rail assembly. The material distribution block 1522 is connected to the material distribution cylinder 1521. The front end of the material distribution block 1522 is provided with a through hole 1523 for receiving a worm gear. The material distribution mechanism is used to transport the worm gear to one side of the ejection mechanism.

[0056] The ejection mechanism is located on one side of the mounting mechanism. The ejection mechanism includes an ejection cylinder 1531, a moving block 1532, a lifting cylinder 1533, an extension block 1534, and a top column 1535. The moving block 1532 is located on the second guide rail assembly and is connected to the ejection cylinder 1531. The lifting cylinder 1533 is located on the moving block 1532 and is connected to the extension block 1534. The top column 1535 is located at the end of the extension block 1534.

[0057] The mounting mechanism includes a linear conveyor module 1541, a base 1542 on the linear conveyor module 1541, a mounting block 1543 on the base 1542, and a receiving cavity 1544 on the mounting block 1543 for accommodating the worm gear.

[0058] The top column 1535 is used to push the worm gear in the through hole 1523 at the front end of the material distribution strip 1522 into the receiving cavity 1544 of the mounting block 1543. The pressing and positioning mechanism includes a pressing cylinder 155 and a pressing block 156. The pressing block 156 is used to press and position the motor on the carrier 131.

[0059] Specifically, the vibratory feeding mechanism includes a vibratory feeder mechanism and a direct vibration mechanism 151. When the through hole 1523 of the distribution strip 1522 moves to the outlet of the direct vibration mechanism 151, a worm gear can enter the through hole 1523 of the distribution strip 1522. A detection hole is provided above the through hole 1523 of the distribution strip 1522, and a sensor is provided above the detection hole. After the sensor detects the presence of the worm gear in the through hole 1523, the distribution cylinder 1521 will drive the distribution strip 1522 to move. After the distribution strip 1522 moves to one side of the mounting block 1543, the body of the distribution strip 1522 can block the outlet of the direct vibration mechanism 151. The lifting cylinder 1533 drives the extension block 1534 to descend, so as to press against one side of the through hole 1523 of the distribution strip 1522. Next, the ejector cylinder 1531 drives the moving block 1532 to move, causing the abutment to move towards the worm gear. The abutment pushes the worm gear out of the through hole 1523 of the material distribution block 1522 into the receiving cavity 1544 of the mounting block 1543. Then, the lifting cylinder 1533 rises and resets, and the ejector cylinder 1531 resets. The rising and resetting of the lifting cylinder 1533 provides space for the movement of the mounting block 1543. Next, the mounting block 1543 moves towards the motor under the drive of the linear conveyor module 1541, finally mounting the worm gear onto the motor shaft.

[0060] It should be noted that the motor on the carrier 131 can be positioned by pressing down the aforementioned pressure block 156. This facilitates the installation of the worm gear.

[0061] In one embodiment, such as Figure 5 As shown, the carrier 131 is provided with a motor positioning slot, and a top block 132 is provided at one end of the motor positioning slot. The top block 132 is used to support the rear end of the motor. The linear conveying module 1541 is used to drive the mounting block 1543 to move towards the motor. The mounting block 1543 is used to mount the worm gear on the shaft of the motor.

[0062] Specifically, during the process of installing the worm gear onto the motor shaft, the top block 132 can support the rear end of the motor, which facilitates the installation of the worm gear onto the motor shaft.

[0063] Furthermore, a pressure sensor 1545 is provided on one side of the mounting block 1543 on the base 1542. The pressure sensor 1545 is used to detect whether the pressure used by the worm gear during the installation process on the motor is qualified.

[0064] In one embodiment, such as Figure 7 As shown, the barcode scanning and unloading assembly 160 includes a multi-axis robotic arm 161 and a barcode scanning assembly 162 and a picking assembly mounted on the multi-axis robotic arm 161.

[0065] Specifically, the barcode scanning component 162 can be composed of an existing barcode scanner. The barcode scanner is used to scan the code on the motor in order to record the codes of qualified and unqualified motors.

[0066] Specifically, the aforementioned pickup component can be a gripper or other type of pickup mechanism 163.

[0067] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementations of the present invention, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the invention patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of the present invention, and these all fall within the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of this invention patent should be determined by the appended claims.
