Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the technical field of automotive parts production equipment, and in particular relates to an automotive button assembly device and method. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of my country's automobile industry and the improvement of people's living standards, cars have become commonplace in households. Various switches and buttons on the car dashboard are among the most important electrical components in the car's interior, and their performance directly affects the overall quality and performance of the vehicle. However, car buttons are generally composed of a cover and a base plate that interlock. Currently, the interlocking of the cover and base plate of car buttons is still done manually, which often results in button damage due to uneven finger application, leading to a low product qualification rate.

[0003] Patent CN111421496B discloses a manual assembly device for car buttons, including a base. The upper surface of the base has a rectangular recess, and the bottom surface of the recess has several mounting slots that penetrate the base. A U-shaped upper support is inserted into the upper side of the base. One end of the upper support is hinged to the base via a hinge shaft formed on the side wall of the base. The other end of the upper support has a support plate, and a connecting plate is fixed on the support plate. Several limiting bolts are screwed onto the connecting plate. A slot is formed on the side surface of the base, and the limiting bolts are inserted into the slot of the base.

[0004] The aforementioned patent improves the production efficiency of button assembly and reduces the breakage rate by assisting manual assembly of car buttons. However, in the actual installation process, manual installation is not only inefficient but also costly, and improvements are needed. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this application is to provide an automotive button assembly device and method that can solve the above-mentioned problems.

[0006] The purpose of this application is to provide an automotive button assembly device, comprising:

[0007] frame;

[0008] A clamping mechanism, mounted on the frame, is used to secure the car buttons;

[0009] The mounting mechanism, mounted on the frame, is used to press the faceplate of the car button against the base plate;

[0010] The guiding mechanism, mounted on the frame and connected to the installation mechanism, is used to guide and buffer the movement of the installation mechanism.

[0011] The installation mechanism is located above the clamping mechanism and can move up and down along the vertical direction of the clamping mechanism.

[0012] The aforementioned automotive button assembly device, by integrating a clamping mechanism, an mounting mechanism, and a guiding mechanism, achieves automatic pressing of the button cover and base plate, reducing manual operation and significantly improving assembly speed and production efficiency. The guiding mechanism ensures the stability and accuracy of the mounting mechanism during movement, resulting in more precise pressing of the cover and base plate and reducing rework rates due to positional deviations. Guided by the guiding mechanism, the mounting mechanism can apply pressure smoothly and evenly, ensuring the sealing and stability between the cover and base plate, thus improving the overall product quality. Furthermore, the addition of a cushioning function reduces impact and damage to the automotive buttons and their components during installation, protecting the integrity of the product's appearance and internal structure. It also makes the vertical movement of the mounting mechanism more stable, ensuring processing stability.

[0013] At the same time, automated assembly reduces workers' need for repetitive, high-intensity labor, lowers the risk of physical fatigue and workplace injuries, and also reduces reliance on manual labor, thus reducing labor costs.

[0014] Furthermore, the clamping mechanism includes:

[0015] The workbench is mounted on the machine frame;

[0016] A work slot, set on the workbench, is used to hold car buttons;

[0017] The first driver is located on both sides of the worktable, and a clamp is provided on the output shaft of the first driver;

[0018] Driven by the first driver, the clamping plate clamps the car button in the working slot.

[0019] The worktable, mounted on the frame, provides a stable support platform for subsequent clamping operations. The working slot provides a placement location for assembling car buttons, facilitating subsequent clamping and assembly. The first actuator, serving as the power source for the clamping mechanism, drives the clamping plate for clamping operations. The clamping plate directly contacts the car button, and through the drive of the first actuator, it firmly clamps the car button within the working slot. Furthermore, the design of the clamping plate can be modified to accommodate different models and sizes of car buttons, adapting to varying clamping requirements.

[0020] Furthermore: the mounting mechanism includes:

[0021] Mounting bracket, set on the workbench;

[0022] The second driver is located on the top of the mounting bracket, and a pressure plate is provided on the output shaft of the second driver;

[0023] The mounting head is located at the bottom of the pressure plate;

[0024] The mounting head is also equipped with a heating mechanism for heating the car buttons.

[0025] The mounting bracket, as the main part of the mounting mechanism, is set on the workbench and provides a support platform for components such as the second actuator, pressure plate, and mounting head. The second actuator, as the power source of the mounting mechanism, drives the pressure plate and mounting head to perform the pressing operation through the up-and-down movement of its output shaft. To reduce impact and damage to the automotive buttons, this application specifically includes a guide mechanism. Furthermore, by incorporating a heating mechanism, the automotive buttons can be heated, reducing the pressing difficulty and improving assembly quality.

[0026] Furthermore, the guiding mechanism includes:

[0027] Guide grooves are provided on both sides of the mounting bracket;

[0028] Guide rods are mounted on the pressure plate and extend into guide grooves on both sides;

[0029] Guide sliders are located on both sides of the guide rod and are adapted to the guide groove;

[0030] A guide structure is provided within the groove and connected to the slider;

[0031] The guide slider can slide within the guide groove, and its movement drives the guiding structure to operate.

[0032] By setting guide grooves, a clear path and direction are provided for the vertical movement of the mounting mechanism. Guide rods connect the pressure plate to the guide grooves, allowing the pressure plate to move along a predetermined path. Guide sliders are located on both sides of the guide rods and cooperate with the guide grooves, allowing them to slide freely within the grooves and providing a smooth transition for the movement of the mounting mechanism. Simultaneously, a guide structure is set within the grooves and connected to the sliders to guide their movement and, when necessary, provide cushioning to reduce impact on the mounting mechanism and automotive buttons. It also makes the movement of the pressure plate more stable, preventing vibration.

[0033] Furthermore, through the coordinated action of the guide groove, guide rod, guide slider, and guide structure, the installation mechanism maintains a precise path and direction during its vertical movement, ensuring the accuracy of the pressing operation. The guide mechanism design also reduces swaying and offset during the installation mechanism's movement, making the pressing process smoother and more stable, improving assembly quality. The precise guidance and cushioning also help reduce wear and damage to the installation mechanism and automotive buttons during the pressing process, thereby extending the equipment's service life.

[0034] Furthermore, the guiding structure includes:

[0035] The linkage slider is set inside the guide groove and can slide within the guide groove;

[0036] The damping component is mounted on the mounting bracket and connected to the guide slider and the linkage slider;

[0037] A connecting component is disposed between the linkage slider and the guide slider and is used to connect the linkage slider and the guide slider;

[0038] When the guide slider moves, the linkage slider moves, which in turn drives the damping component to extend and retract.

[0039] The linkage slider is positioned within the guide groove and moves synchronously with it. The damping component enhances the overall stability of the movement, making the movement of the pressure plate smoother and reducing the possibility of wobbling and deviation. Specifically, the damping component is mounted on the mounting bracket and connected to the guide slider and linkage slider. It provides damping force; that is, when the guide slider and linkage slider move, the damping component absorbs some kinetic energy, slowing down the movement speed and thus acting as a buffer. This reduces the impact and vibration on the car button during the pressing process to a certain extent, making the pressing process more stable. Furthermore, by adjusting the damping force, precise control of the pressing speed and force can be achieved.

[0040] Meanwhile, the connecting component is positioned between the linkage slider and the guide slider, serving as a connection and linkage mechanism to tightly connect the two, ensuring the synchronization and stability of the guide slider and the linkage slider during movement. Through the synergistic effect of the linkage slider, damping component, and connecting component, the guiding structure achieves precision and stability in the movement of the installation mechanism.

[0041] Furthermore, the linkage slider includes a first slider and a second slider, and the mounting bracket is respectively provided with a first limiting slide groove and a second limiting slide groove adapted to the first slider and the second slider, and the first limiting slide groove and the second limiting slide groove are connected to the guide slide groove;

[0042] The damping assembly includes a damper connected to the guide slider, a first spring connected to the first limiting groove, and a second spring connected to the second limiting groove.

[0043] The connecting assembly includes a main rod body disposed on a guide slider, a first auxiliary rod body disposed on a first slider, and a second auxiliary rod body disposed on a second slider;

[0044] The main rod is hinged to the first auxiliary rod and the second auxiliary rod, respectively.

[0045] The first and second sliders are respectively disposed within their respective first and second limiting grooves. These grooves communicate with the guide groove, providing a clear movement path for each slider. The two sliders can slide independently within their respective limiting grooves and are also connected to the guide slider via a connecting assembly, jointly guiding and controlling the movement of the mounting mechanism. The combined action of the first and second limiting grooves with the guide groove enhances the stability and reliability of the entire sliding system.

[0046] The damper is connected to the guide slider. When the guide slider moves, the damper provides a certain damping force to slow down the movement speed, thus playing a damping and buffering role. The first spring and the second spring are respectively connected to the first limit slide and the second limit slide, providing elastic support for the first slider and the second slider. When the slider is subjected to external force, it provides a certain buffering and restoring force. Moreover, the two springs and the damper work together to further enhance the buffering and stability performance of the system.

[0047] The connecting assembly includes a main rod, a first auxiliary rod, and a second auxiliary rod. The main rod is hinged to both the first and second auxiliary rods. When the guide slider moves, the first and second sliders move accordingly through the transmission action of the connecting assembly. The coordinated action of the linkage slider, damping assembly, and connecting assembly makes the pressing process smoother, reducing the impact on the stability of the automotive button manufacturing process and improving assembly quality.

[0048] Furthermore, both the first limiting slide groove and the second limiting slide groove are arc-shaped, and the bending directions of the first limiting slide groove and the second limiting slide groove are opposite. A separator head is provided between the first limiting slide groove and the second limiting slide groove, and the first slider and the second slider have guide grooves that are adapted to the separator head.

[0049] The first and second limiting slides are arc-shaped with opposite bending directions, allowing for a smooth transition between the two sliders during movement. This reduces the impact and vibration that might occur with a straight path, distributing force to both sides and thus reducing swaying and offset of the mounting mechanism, improving overall stability. A separator head is positioned between the first and second limiting slides to facilitate the separation of the first and second sliders, allowing them to enter their respective limiting slides more smoothly. Furthermore, guide grooves adapted to the separator head on the first and second sliders further facilitate separation and provide guidance, helping the sliders maintain the correct direction and path during movement.

[0050] Furthermore, the present invention also discloses a method for assembling an automotive button device, comprising the following steps:

[0051] S1. Place the faceplate and base plate of the car button into the working slot;

[0052] S2. The clamping mechanisms on both sides of the worktable are activated and clamp the car button;

[0053] S3. The installation mechanism starts and moves the installation head down to press the base plate and the cover together. At the same time, the heating mechanism heats the base plate of the car button and keeps it pressed together for a period of time.

[0054] S4. The installation mechanism lifts the installation head and removes the assembled car button.

[0055] The beneficial effects of this application are:

[0056] 1. By integrating clamping, mounting and guiding mechanisms, the automatic pressing of the car button cover and the base plate is realized, reducing manual operation, significantly improving assembly speed and production efficiency. Automated assembly also reduces the need for workers to perform repetitive and high-intensity labor, reducing physical fatigue and the risk of work-related injuries. It also reduces reliance on manual labor and lowers labor costs.

[0057] 2. The guiding mechanism ensures the stability and accuracy of the installation mechanism during movement, making the pressing position of the cover and the base plate more precise, reducing the rework rate caused by positional deviation. Under the guidance of the guiding mechanism, the installation mechanism can apply pressure smoothly and evenly, ensuring the sealing and stability between the cover and the base plate, and improving the overall quality of the product.

[0058] 3. The first and second limiting slides are arc-shaped and their bending directions are opposite, which allows the two sliders to transition smoothly during movement, reducing the impact and vibration that may be caused by the straight path, dispersing the force to both sides, thereby reducing the shaking and offset of the installation mechanism and improving the overall stability.

It also makes the vertical movement of the mounting mechanism 300 more stable, ensuring processing stability.

[0074] At the same time, automated assembly reduces workers' need for repetitive, high-intensity labor, lowers the risk of physical fatigue and workplace injuries, and also reduces reliance on manual labor, thus reducing labor costs.

The work slot 220 provides a placement position for assembling the car button, facilitating subsequent clamping and assembly operations. The first driver 230 serves as the power source for the clamping mechanism 200, driving the clamping plate 240 for clamping operations. The clamping plate 240 directly contacts the car button, and through the drive of the first driver 230, the car button can be firmly clamped within the work slot 220. Furthermore, the design of the clamping plate 240 can be modified according to different models and sizes of car buttons to adapt to different clamping requirements.

[0083] Example 3:

[0084] This application provides an automotive button assembly device. In addition to the above-mentioned technical features, the automotive button assembly device of this application also includes the following technical features.

[0085] like Figure 1 As shown, the mounting mechanism 300 includes:

[0086] Mounting bracket 310 is mounted on workbench 210;

[0087] The second driver 320 is disposed on the top of the mounting bracket 310, and a pressure plate 330 is disposed on the output shaft of the second driver 320;

Furthermore, by providing a heating mechanism, the automotive buttons can be heated, reducing the pressing difficulty and improving assembly quality.

[0091] Example 4:

[0092] This application provides an automotive button assembly device. In addition to the above-mentioned technical features, the automotive button assembly device of this application also includes the following technical features.

[0093] like Figure 1As shown, the guide mechanism 400 includes:

[0094] Guide grooves 410 are provided on both sides of the mounting bracket 310;

[0095] The guide rod 420 is mounted on the pressure plate 330 and extends into the guide grooves 410 on both sides;

[0096] Guide sliders 430 are disposed on both sides of guide rod 420 and are adapted to guide grooves 410;

[0097] The guide structure 500 is set in the groove and connected to the slider;

[0098] The guide slider 430 can slide within the guide groove 410, and the guide slider 430 drives the guide structure 500 to operate when it moves.

[0099] In this embodiment, the guide groove 410 provides a clear path and direction for the vertical movement of the mounting mechanism 300. The guide rod 420 connects the pressure plate 330 to the guide groove 410, allowing the pressure plate 330 to move along a predetermined path. The guide slider 430 is located on both sides of the guide rod 420 and cooperates with the guide groove 410, allowing it to slide freely within the groove and providing a smooth transition for the movement of the mounting mechanism 300. Simultaneously, the guide structure 500 is disposed within the groove and connected to the slider, guiding its movement and providing cushioning when necessary to reduce impact on the mounting mechanism 300 and the automotive button. It also makes the movement of the pressure plate 330 more stable, preventing vibration.

[0100] Furthermore, through the coordinated action of the guide groove 410, guide rod 420, guide slider 430, and guide structure 500, the mounting mechanism 300 maintains a precise path and direction during its vertical movement, ensuring the accuracy of the pressing operation. The design of the guide mechanism 400 also reduces swaying and offset of the mounting mechanism 300 during movement, making the pressing process smoother and more stable, improving assembly quality.

[0101] Example 5:

[0102] This application provides an automotive button assembly device. In addition to the above-mentioned technical features, the automotive button assembly device of this application also includes the following technical features.

[0103] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the guide structure 500 includes:

[0104] The linkage slider 510 is set in the guide groove 410 and can slide in the guide groove 410;

[0105] The damping component 520 is mounted on the mounting bracket 310 and connected to the guide slider 430 and the linkage slider 510.

[0106] A connecting component 530 is disposed between the linkage slider 510 and the guide slider 430 and is used to connect the linkage slider 510 and the guide slider 430.

[0107] When the guide slider 430 moves, the linkage slider 510 moves, which in turn drives the damping component 520 to extend and retract.

[0108] In this embodiment, the linkage slider 510 is disposed within the guide groove 410 and moves synchronously with the guide slider 430. The damping component 520 enhances the overall stability of the movement, making the movement of the pressure plate 330 smoother and reducing the possibility of swaying and deviation. The damping component 520 is disposed on the mounting bracket 310 and connected to the guide slider 430 and the linkage slider 510. It provides damping force; that is, when the guide slider 430 and the linkage slider 510 move, the damping component 520 absorbs some kinetic energy, slowing down the movement speed and thus acting as a buffer. This reduces the impact and vibration on the car button during the pressing process to a certain extent, makes the pressing process more stable, and allows for precise control of the pressing speed and force by adjusting the damping force.

[0109] Meanwhile, the connecting component 530 is disposed between the linkage slider 510 and the guide slider 430, serving as a connection and linkage mechanism, tightly connecting the two and ensuring the synchronization and stability of the guide slider 430 and the linkage slider 510 during movement. Through the synergistic effect of the linkage slider 510, the damping component 520, and the connecting component 530, the guide structure 500 can achieve precision and stability in the movement of the installation mechanism 300.

[0110] Furthermore, the linkage slider 510 includes a first slider 511 and a second slider 512. The mounting bracket 310 is respectively provided with a first limiting slide groove 513 and a second limiting slide groove 514 adapted to the first slider 511 and the second slider 512, and the first limiting slide groove 513 and the second limiting slide groove 514 are connected to the guide slide groove 410.

[0111] The damping assembly 520 includes a damper 521 connected to the guide slider 430, a first spring 522 connected to the first limiting slide groove 513, and a second spring 523 connected to the second limiting slide groove 514.

[0112] The connecting assembly 530 includes a main rod 531 disposed on the guide slider 430, a first auxiliary rod 532 disposed on the first slider 511, and a second auxiliary rod 533 disposed on the second slider 512;

[0113] The main rod 531 is hinged to the first auxiliary rod 532 and the second auxiliary rod 533 respectively.

[0114] In some embodiments of this application, the first slider 511 and the second slider 512 are respectively disposed within the corresponding first limiting slide groove 513 and second limiting slide groove 514. These slide grooves communicate with the guide slide groove 410, providing a clear movement path for each slider. The two sliders can not only slide independently within their respective limiting slide grooves, but are also connected to the guide slider 430 via the connecting component 530, jointly participating in guiding and controlling the movement of the mounting mechanism 300. The first limiting slide groove 513 and the second limiting slide groove 514, together with the guide slide groove 410, enhance the stability and reliability of the entire sliding system.

[0115] The damper 521 is connected to the guide slider 430. When the guide slider 430 moves, the damper 521 provides a certain damping force to slow down the movement speed, thereby playing a damping and buffering role. The first spring 522 and the second spring 523 are respectively connected to the first limiting slide groove 513 and the second limiting slide groove 514, providing elastic support for the first slider 511 and the second slider 512. They provide a certain buffering and restoring force when the slider is subjected to external force, and the two springs and the damper 521 work together to further enhance the buffering and stability performance of the system.

[0116] The connecting assembly 530 includes a main rod 531, a first auxiliary rod 532, and a second auxiliary rod 533. The main rod 531 is hinged to the first auxiliary rod 532 and the second auxiliary rod 533. When the guide slider 430 moves, the first slider 511 and the second slider 512 also move accordingly through the transmission action of the connecting assembly 530. Through the synergistic action of the linkage slider 510, the damping assembly 520, and the connecting assembly 530, the pressing process is made smoother, reducing the impact on the stability of the automotive button manufacturing process and improving the assembly quality.

[0117] Example 6:

[0118] This application provides an automotive button assembly device. In addition to the above-mentioned technical features, the automotive button assembly device of this application also includes the following technical features.

[0119] like Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the first limiting slide groove 513 and the second limiting slide groove 514 are both arc-shaped, and the bending directions of the first limiting slide groove 513 and the second limiting slide groove 514 are opposite. A separator head 540 is provided between the first limiting slide groove 513 and the second limiting slide groove 514. The first slider 511 and the second slider 512 have guide grooves 550 that are adapted to the separator head 540.

[0120] In this embodiment, the first limiting groove 513 and the second limiting groove 514 are arc-shaped with opposite bending directions, allowing the two sliders to transition smoothly during movement. This reduces the impact and vibration that may be caused by a straight path, disperses the force to both sides, thereby reducing the swaying and offset of the mounting mechanism 300 and improving overall stability. The separator head 540 is disposed between the first limiting groove 513 and the second limiting groove 514, facilitating the separation of the first slider 511 and the second slider 512. This allows the first slider 511 and the second slider 512 to enter their respective limiting grooves more smoothly. At the same time, by providing guide grooves 550 on the first slider 511 and the second slider 512 that are adapted to the separator head 540, the separation of the first slider 511 and the second slider 512 can be further facilitated, and a certain guiding role is also played to help the sliders maintain the correct direction and path during movement.

[0121] Example 7:

[0122] This application provides a method for assembling an automotive button device, including the following steps:

[0123] S1. Place the faceplate and base plate of the car button into the working slot 220;

[0124] S2, The clamping mechanisms 200 on both sides of the worktable 210 are activated and clamp the car button;
