It replaces a large amount of repetitive and high-intensity manual labor, reduces the workload of workers, and enables operators to engage in more creative and managerial work. While improving production efficiency, it reduces the need for a large number of manual labor and reduces labor costs. In addition, precise assembly can also reduce material waste and reduce production costs. The collaborative work between the various devices realizes a smooth production process, reduces the waiting time and material turnover time between processes, and further improves the overall production efficiency.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the driving component accurately drives the sliding part, and cooperates with the limit component and the slide slot to ensure that the workpiece slides accurately to the specified position according to the predetermined trajectory, thereby improving the accuracy of assembly. The setting of the limit component and the slide slot keeps the workpiece stable during the displacement process, reduces shaking and offset, and helps the smooth progress of subsequent processing procedures. The automated driving and displacement method greatly improves the conveying efficiency of the workpiece and speeds up the speed of the entire assembly process.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0030] The present application is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0031] In this embodiment, refer to Figure 1-2 A USB vertical assembly automatic machine includes a cabinet 1, and a workpiece shifting device 2, a plastic shell feeding device 3, a material strip feeding device 4, a terminal plugging device 5, a material strip removing device 6, a plastic shell fixing device 7 and a back cover feeding device 8 arranged on the cabinet 1. These devices are arranged in sequence on the cabinet 1 and work together to complete the automatic assembly of the USB. The cabinet 1 is also provided with a workpiece unloading device for unloading the workpiece after the workpiece is processed.

[0032] Specifically, the plastic shell feeding device 3 transfers the plastic shell to the workpiece shifting device 2, and then the workpiece shifting device 2 transfers the plastic shell to the subsequent workstation. Next, the material strip feeding device 4 transfers the material strip with the terminal to the plastic shell, and then the terminal plugging device 5 plugs the terminal into the plastic shell. After the plugging is completed, the material strip removal device 6 separates the material strip on the terminal. In this process, the plastic shell fixing device 7 cooperates with the terminal plugging device 5 and the material strip removal device 6 to fix the workpiece to ensure the accuracy of assembly. Finally, the back cover feeding device 8 transfers and installs the back cover to the plastic shell, completes the assembly of the USB semi-finished product, and transfers the processed workpiece to the workpiece unloading device for unloading.

[0033] The implementation principle of Example 1 is: through the coordinated action of various devices, the fully automatic assembly process of the USB from plastic shell loading, terminal plugging, material strip removal to back cover loading is realized, which greatly improves production efficiency and reduces labor costs.

[0034] Examples 2 to 10 respectively describe in detail the specific structures and implementation methods of the workpiece shifting device 2, plastic shell loading device 3, material strip loading device 4, terminal plugging device 5, material strip removal device 6, plastic shell fixing device 7 and back cover loading device 8 in the above-mentioned Example 1.

[0035] Example 2 Reference Figure 3-4 , the difference of this embodiment is that the structure of the workpiece shifting device 2 is specifically described. The device includes a mounting member 21, on which a sliding member 22 is provided, and the sliding member 22 can slide on the mounting member 21. A limiting assembly 23 is provided on the sliding member 22, which is used to drive the workpiece to slide on the mounting member 21. At the same time, the sliding member 22 is connected to a driving assembly 24, and the driving assembly 24 drives the sliding member 22 and the limiting assembly 23 to accurately control the movement of the workpiece. The mounting member 21 is also provided with a slide groove 9, which is used for limiting the sliding of the workpiece to ensure the stability of the workpiece during the movement.

[0036] In actual operation, after the USB vertical assembly automatic machine is started, the driving component 24 starts to run. For example, the driving component 24 can be an electric push rod or a combination of a motor and a lead screw. When the driving component 24 works, it generates power to push or pull the sliding member 22. Under the action of the driving component 24, the sliding member 22 moves along a specific path inside the mounting member 21. The moving direction and speed of the sliding member 22 are determined by the working mode of the driving component 24. The limiting component 23 on the sliding member 22 plays a role driven by the sliding member 22. When the workpiece is placed on the mounting member 21, the limiting component 23 drives the workpiece to slide on the mounting member 21. Since the mounting member 21 is provided with a slide groove 9, the workpiece slides smoothly along the slide groove 9 driven by the limiting component 23. The shape and size of the slide groove 9 match the shape of the workpiece, which can effectively limit the moving direction and range of the workpiece.

[0037] Example 3 Reference Figure 4 The difference of this embodiment is that the further structural features of the workpiece shifting device 2 in the USB vertical assembly automatic machine are specifically described. The mounting member 21 is hollow inside and the mounting channel 10 is set, and the sliding member 22 is installed therein. The avoidance groove 11 set along the direction of the slide groove 9 is connected with the mounting channel 10. The limiting component 23 includes a fixed shaft 231 set on the sliding member 22 and a limiting plate 232 sleeved on the fixed shaft 231. The sliding member 22 is also provided with an elastic member 233 whose two ends respectively abut the sliding member 22 and the limiting plate 232, and the limiting plate 232 is provided with a guide surface 12.

[0038] The sliding member 22 is installed in the installation channel 10 of the installation member 21 to ensure that the sliding member 22 can move smoothly in the installation channel 10. In the initial state, the elastic member 233 is in a natural state, the limiting piece 232 penetrates the avoidance groove 11, and the adjacent limiting piece 232 limits the workpiece in the slide groove 9. When the workpiece is placed at a specified position on the installation member 21, the driving component 24 drives the sliding member 22 to start moving away from the plastic shell feeding device 3. As the sliding member 22 moves, the side of the limiting piece 232 away from the guide surface 12 abuts against the workpiece, driving the workpiece to slide in the slide groove 9 into the next station for processing.

[0039] When the driving component 24 drives the sliding member 22 to move toward the plastic shell feeding device 3, the plastic shell fixing device 7 fixes the plastic shell on the mounting member 21, and the guide surface 12 of the limiting piece 232 contacts the workpiece. The elastic member 233 is squeezed and compressed by the workpiece to deform, pushing the limiting piece 232 to retract into the avoidance groove 11, so that the sliding member 22 can move relative to the workpiece and return to its original position. When the limiting piece 232 is not squeezed by the workpiece, it will automatically pop out to limit the workpiece between adjacent limiting pieces 232.

[0040] Example 4 Reference Figure 3-6 , the difference of this embodiment is that the structural composition and working principle of the plastic shell feeding device 3 of the USB vertical assembly automatic machine are specifically described. The plastic shell feeding device 3 is composed of a first feeding component 31 and a first pushing component 32. The first feeding component 31 includes a first feeding mounting frame 311 mounted on the cabinet 1, and the first receiving plate 312 on the first feeding mounting frame 311 is used to place the plastic shell, and the plastic shell is transported through the connected first feeding track 313. In the first pushing component 32, a first mounting platform 321 is provided on the cabinet 1, and the first feeding track 322 on the first mounting platform 321 is connected to the first feeding track 313, and the first pushing block 324 arranged on the first pushing track 323 receives the plastic shell from the first feeding track 322 through the first receiving channel 325. The first pushing block 324 is driven by the first pushing driving member 326 and moves along the first pushing track 323.

[0041] Specifically, a large number of plastic shells are placed in the first receiving tray 312, and the plastic shells move along the first loading track 313 under the action of gravity or other external forces and enter the first feeding track 322. The first pushing drive 326 is started to push the first pushing block 324 to move on the first pushing track 323. When the first pushing block 324 moves to the position of the first feeding track 322, the plastic shell enters the first receiving channel 325 of the first pushing block 324. The first pushing block 324 moves along the first pushing track 323 under the continuous action of the first pushing drive 326, so that the plastic shell is aligned with the slide groove 9. The driving assembly 24 drives the sliding member 22 to slide, and the limiting plate 232 abuts against the plastic shell by passing through the groove 327, pushing the plastic shell in the first receiving channel 325 to the slide groove 9 on the mounting member 21, so that the limiting plate 232 can drive the plastic shell to slide in the slide groove 9.

[0042] Example 5 Reference Figure 7 , the difference of this embodiment is that the composition and working mode of the material belt feeding device 4 of the USB vertical assembly automatic machine are specifically described. The device is composed of a transport component 41 and a pick-up component 42. The transport component 41 is a conveyor belt arranged on the cabinet 1, which is responsible for the initial conveying of the material belt. The pick-up component 42 is located at the conveying end of the transport component 41, wherein the translation component 421 includes a translation mounting block 4211 on the cabinet 1, and the translation slider 4212 on the translation mounting block 4211 is driven by a translation driving component 4213 to slide thereon, and a receiving platform 4214 is provided on the translation slider 4212. At the same time, a lifting driving component 4221 is also provided on the translation slider 4212, which drives the lifting block 4222 to move, and the lifting block 4222 cooperates with the receiving platform 4214 to clamp or release the material belt.

[0043] Specifically, the material belt is placed on the conveyor belt, and the conveyor belt is started to transport the material belt to the conveyor end. When the material belt reaches the conveyor end, the translation drive 4213 works to drive the translation slider 4212 to slide on the translation mounting block 4211, so that the receiving platform 4214 moves to a suitable position below the material belt to receive the material belt. Then, the lifting drive 4221 is started to drive the lifting block 4222 to descend, and the lifting block 4222 cooperates with the receiving platform 4214 to clamp the material belt. The translation drive 4213 moves again to move the translation slider 4212 holding the material belt to the specified position, and preliminarily installs the material belt and the terminals thereon on the plastic shell on the mounting member 21. After the preliminary installation is completed, the lifting drive 4221 drives the lifting block 4222 to rise in the reverse direction, and the lifting block 4222 and the receiving platform 4214 release the material belt, completing the loading of the material belt.

[0044] Example 6 Reference Figure 8 , the difference of this embodiment is that the structure and working principle of the terminal plug-in device 5 of the USB vertical assembly automatic machine are specifically described. The device includes a plug-in mounting block 51 arranged on the cabinet 1. A plug-in slider 52 is provided on the plug-in mounting block 51, and the plug-in slider 52 is connected to the plug-in drive member 53. At the same time, a plug-in pneumatic clamp 54 is provided on the plug-in slider 52. First, the material strip and the plastic shell are accurately placed in the predetermined position. Then, the plug-in drive member 53 is started to push the plug-in slider 52 to slide on the plug-in mounting block 51. As the plug-in slider 52 moves, the plug-in pneumatic clamp 54 thereon clamps the terminals on the material strip.
