Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of display product assembly and production, and in particular to a mechanism for automatically laying down a collector plate bracket. Background Art

[0002] In the existing technology, workers must first remove the machine (display), then manually disengage the clips on the collector plate holder. The holder then automatically drops under gravity. After confirming the jig is flat, workers can then step on a pedal to move the collector plate to the next workstation. This technology presents the following major issues: The collector plate holder requires manual disengagement and flattening, which wastes manpower and increases worker fatigue. Workers must confirm the jig is flat before stepping on the pedal to move the collector plate to the next workstation, wasting time due to varying response times. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The laying mechanism is located on one side of the line body, and the laying mechanism includes a support frame, a push plate, a connecting plate and a cylinder. The push plate is fixed to one end of the connecting plate, and the middle part of the connecting plate is rotatably connected to the support frame through a first rotating shaft, and the connecting plate can rotate with the first rotating shaft; the cylinder is fixed to the support frame, and the push rod end of the cylinder is connected to the other end of the connecting plate and can drive the connecting plate to rotate;

The second rotating shaft is rotatably connected to a limit block via a spring, and one end of the bracket is rotatably connected to the third rotating shaft; the front end of the limit block blocks the support bracket so that the bracket is in an upright state;

[0008] When the bracket is to be laid down, the cylinder pushes the push plate through the connecting plate to push the limit block obliquely upward.

[0020] like Figure 1-5 As shown, the present invention provides a mechanism for automatically folding down a collector plate bracket, comprising a folding mechanism 1 and a bracket connecting structure 2 located on a collector plate 3 .

[0021] The laying mechanism 1 is located on one side of the line body 6. The laying mechanism 1 includes a support frame 11, a push plate 12, a connecting plate 13 and a cylinder 14. The push plate 12 is fixed to one end of the connecting plate 13. The middle part of the connecting plate 13 is rotatably connected to the support frame 11 through a first rotating shaft 15. The connecting plate 13 can rotate with the first rotating shaft 15; the cylinder 14 is fixed to the support frame 11, and the push rod end of the cylinder 14 is connected to the other end of the connecting plate 13 and can drive the connecting plate 13 to rotate;

[0022] The bracket connection structure 2 includes a bracket 21 and a fixing plate 22. The fixing plate 22 is fixedly connected to the base of the collector plate 3. A second rotating shaft 23 and a third rotating shaft 24 are provided on the fixing plate 22. The second rotating shaft 23 is rotatably connected to a limit block 26 via a spring 25. One end of the bracket 21 is rotatably connected to the third rotating shaft 24. The front end of the limit block 26 blocks the support bracket 21 so that the bracket 21 is in an upright state.

[0023] When the bracket 21 is to be laid down, the cylinder 14 pushes the push plate 12 through the connecting plate 13 to push the limit block 26 obliquely upward. The limit block 26 rotates around the second rotation axis 23 and disengages from one end of the bracket 21. The bracket 21 rotates around the third rotation axis 24 under the action of its own weight and then falls down automatically.

[0024] In this embodiment, a connecting block 16 is fixed to the other end of the connecting plate 13. A slot is formed between the connecting plate 13 and the connecting block 16. One end of the pressure plate 17 is placed in the slot, and the other end of the pressure plate 17 is fixed to the push rod of the cylinder 14. The limit block 26 is formed by the fixed connection of an L-shaped plate 261 and a block 262. Under the rebound action of the spring 25, the rear end of the L-shaped plate 261 presses downward against the fixed plate 22, and the front end of the block 262 blocks the support bracket 21. One end of the block 262 is chamfered. The end of the bracket 21 that contacts the block 262 has a V-shaped portion. The angle of the V-shaped portion varies depending on the product placement angle, and both ends of the V-shaped portion are chamfered.

[0025] A buffer mechanism 4 is provided on the side of the line body 6 facing the tilting mechanism 1. The buffer mechanism 4 is used to cushion the tilting of the bracket 21. Specifically, the buffer mechanism 4 includes a buffer plate 41 and a buffer rod 42. The upper end of the buffer plate 41 is rotatably connected to a fourth rotation axis 43 located on the side of the line body 6. The buffer rod 42 is elastically connected to the side of the line body 6 and is located below the fourth rotation axis 43. The front end of the buffer rod 42 abuts the lower end of the buffer plate 41.

[0026] The workflow of the present invention is as follows:

[0027] 1. When the collector plate 3 flows in from the previous station, the bracket 21 is in an upright state, and the product (display) 5 is placed on the bracket 21. After the collector plate 3 flows to the station where the bracket 21 is laid down, the product is manually removed from the bracket 21 and the foot switch can be stepped on;

[0028] 2. After the operator steps on the foot switch, the cylinder 14 is activated to pull the pressure plate 17 downward. The pressure plate 17 drives the connecting plate 13 to rotate around the first rotation axis 15, pushing the push plate 12 to push the limit block 26 obliquely upward. The limit block 26 rotates around the second rotation axis 23, so that the end of the clamping block 262 that contacts the bracket 21 and one end of the V-shaped portion of the bracket 21 are staggered downward along one side of the V-shaped portion. The V-shaped portion of the bracket 21 loses the blocking support of the limit block 26. Due to the influence of gravity, the bracket 21 is forced to rotate around the third rotation axis 24 and then automatically fall down.

[0029] 3. During the automatic falling process of the bracket 21, a buffer mechanism 4 is provided on the other side of the falling mechanism 1 on the linear body 6. In order to prevent the bracket 21 from automatically falling and causing collision damage, after the bracket 21 falls, one end of the bracket 21 contacts the buffer plate 41. The buffer plate 41 rotates around the fourth rotation axis 43 under the buffering action of the buffer rod 42, thereby unloading most of the force of the bracket 21 falling.

[0030] 4. After bracket 21 automatically collapses, cylinder 14 resumes its function, pushing pressure plate 17 upward. This causes connecting plate 13 to rotate about first axis 15, thereby driving push plate 12 to release stopper 26 and return to its original position. Stopper 26, activated by spring 25, returns to its original position about second axis 23. L-shaped plate 261 abuts against fixed plate 22 and remains in place. After push plate 12 and stopper 26 return to their original positions, the assembly line automatically flows collector plate 3 to the next layer.

[0031] The above describes a specific embodiment of the present invention, but those skilled in the art should understand that this is only an example. Those skilled in the art can make various changes or modifications to this embodiment without departing from the principles and essence of the present invention, but these changes and modifications will fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
