[0023] In the description of the present application, it should be understood that if the terms "center", "longitudinal", "lateral", "length", "width", "thickness", "up", "down", "front", "back", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inside", "outside", "clockwise", "counterclockwise", "axial", "radial", "circumferential", etc. appear, the orientation or position relationship indicated by these terms is based on the orientation or position relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, which is only for the convenience of describing the present application and simplifying the description, and does not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present application.

[0024] In addition, if the terms "first" or "second" appear, these terms are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of the features. In the description of this application, if the term "plurality" appears, the meaning of "plurality" is at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.

[0025] In this application, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, if the terms "installed", "connected", "connected", "fixed" and the like appear, these terms should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integrated connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, it can be the internal connection of two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements, unless otherwise clearly defined. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in this application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0026] In the present application, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, if there is a description that a first feature is "above" or "below" a second feature, etc., or similar descriptions appear, it may mean that the first and second features are in direct contact, or that the first and second features are in indirect contact through an intermediate medium. Moreover, the first feature being "above", "above" and "above" the second feature may mean that the first feature is directly above or obliquely above the second feature, or simply means that the first feature is higher in level than the second feature. The first feature being "below", "below" and "below" the second feature may mean that the first feature is directly below or obliquely below the second feature, or simply means that the first feature is lower in level than the second feature.

[0027] It should be noted that if an element is referred to as being "fixed to" or "disposed on" another element, it may be directly on the other element or there may be a central element. If an element is considered to be "connected to" another element, it may be directly connected to the other element or there may be a central element at the same time. If any, the terms "vertical", "horizontal", "upper", "lower", "left", "right" and similar expressions used in this application are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent the only implementation method.

[0028] The current connector usually includes a shell and a steel ball. The side wall of the shell is provided with a side hole. The steel ball is arranged in the side hole for axial positioning of the structure sleeved outside the shell. Alternatively, the steel ball can be movably arranged in the side hole. The connector controls the position of the steel ball in the side hole by matching other auxiliary components. When part of the structure of the steel ball protrudes out of the side hole, the steel ball can be used to make the male and female heads of the self-locking connector clamped to achieve self-locking. When the steel ball is located in the side hole, the steel ball no longer provides a clamping effect, so the male and female heads of the connector can be separated freely, so that the male and female heads can be freely plugged and unplugged. With such a design, the connector can achieve axial positioning or self-locking function by a simple steel ball. However, the steel ball has a small structural volume and a smooth outer surface, so it is difficult to pick up and transfer the steel ball by traditional picking methods (such as manipulators, clamps, etc.). At present, the steel ball is usually manually loaded into the side hole of the shell. However, this assembly method restricts the production efficiency of the connector.

[0029] In conjunction with FIG. 3 , in order to solve the above problems, the present application provides an installation device, the installation device includes a joint head, the joint head is provided with a material storage cavity for accommodating a steel ball, and the material storage cavity is provided with an opening connected to the outside. When assembly is not required, the opening is blocked and the steel ball is in the material storage cavity. When assembly is required, the shell can be inserted into the material storage cavity from the opening, and the steel ball can enter the side hole through the opening to achieve assembly. Compared with the assembly method using a manipulator to clamp and transfer in the traditional technology, the present application uses a simple action such as inserting the shell and the joint head to position the steel ball and the shell relative to each other, which is convenient for realizing automated assembly and improving production efficiency. The following is a brief description of the installation device provided by the present application and the assembly equipment including the installation device in conjunction with the drawings and specific embodiments of the specification. It should be emphasized that the embodiments of the present application will take the assembly of the steel ball (i.e., the sub-workpiece 2a mentioned below) and the shell (i.e., the mother workpiece 2b mentioned below) in the connector provided above as an example to illustrate the installation device. The installation device and assembly equipment provided by the present application are not limited to being used for assembling steel balls and shells, and even the sub-workpiece 2a is not limited to being a spherical workpiece. The same is true when the installation device and assembly equipment are used for assembling other workpieces with small structures that are not easy to position and transfer, and they will not be described in detail in the following embodiments.

[0030] 1 to 3, an assembly device 1 provided in an embodiment of the present application includes a mounting device 10 and a carrier 20, wherein the carrier 20 is used to place a mother workpiece 2b, and the mounting device 10 is used to install a sub-workpiece 2a into a side hole 2c of the mother workpiece 2b. The assembly device 1 can automatically install the sub-workpiece 2a into the side hole 2c of the mother workpiece 2b to achieve efficient assembly.

[0031] Please refer to FIGS. 1 to 4 , an embodiment of the present application provides a mounting device 10, which includes a support seat 100 and a joint head 200, and the joint head 200 is disposed on the support seat 100. The joint head 200 includes a body 210 and a push rod 220, and the body 210 is provided with a material receiving chamber 211 and an opening 212, wherein the material receiving chamber 211 is used to receive the sub-workpiece 2a, and the opening 212 allows the material receiving chamber 211 to communicate with the outside. The push rod 220 is movably arranged through the body 210 to extend into the material receiving chamber 211 and the opening 212, and the push rod 220 is used to block the opening 212 when it is not lifted. The opening 212 and the mother workpiece 2b can be plugged into a position where at least part of the area where the side hole 2c on the mother workpiece 2b is located enters the opening 212. When the opening 212 is plugged into the mother workpiece 2b, the push rod 220 is lifted by the mother workpiece 2b to open the opening 212, allowing the child workpiece 2a to enter the side hole 2c.

[0032] In the above-mentioned installation device 10, the push rod 220 blocks the opening 212 when it is not lifted, and the sub-workpiece 2a can be stably placed in the material storage chamber 211. When the sub-workpiece 2a is assembled with the mother workpiece 2b, the opening 212 of the joint head 200 is controlled to be plugged into the mother workpiece 2b, and the mother workpiece 2b can lift the push rod 220 to open the opening 212, so that the sub-workpiece 2a in the material storage chamber 211 can enter the side hole 2c of the mother workpiece 2b through the opening 212 to achieve assembly. It is easy to understand that the present application utilizes the joint head 200 to be plugged and positioned with the mother workpiece 2b, so that the side hole 2c located on the mother workpiece 2b can be positioned with the sub-workpiece 2a located in the joint head 200, so that the sub-workpiece 2a can be conveniently loaded into the side hole 2c. The plugging action of the joint head 200 and the mother workpiece 2b in the installation device 10 is simple and easy to be performed automatically. When the installation device 10 automatically assembles the sub-workpiece 2a and the mother workpiece 2b, it can have higher assembly efficiency and improve the overall production efficiency.

[0033] Furthermore, since the opening 212 and the mother workpiece 2b can be inserted to the extent that at least a portion of the area where the side hole 2c on the mother workpiece 2b is located enters the opening 212, the coordinated limiting action of the inner wall of the opening 212 and the outer wall of the mother workpiece 2b can reduce the probability of the sub-workpiece 2a falling directly from the opening 212 instead of entering the side hole 2c after the opening 212 is opened, thereby improving the success rate of assembly.

[0034] Please refer to Figures 1 and 4. In one embodiment, the installation device 10 further includes a material bin 300, a material distribution structure 400 and a conduit 500 (not shown, the same below). The material bin 300 and the material distribution structure 400 are both arranged on the support seat 100. The material bin 300 is used to accommodate the sub-workpieces 2a, and the conduit 500 is used to transport the sub-workpieces 2a. The conduit 500 sequentially connects the material bin 300, the material distribution structure 400 and the material storage chamber 211, so that the sub-workpieces 2a in the material bin 300 can enter the material storage chamber 211. The material distribution structure 400 can open and cut off the conduit 500 to limit the number of sub-workpieces 2a in the material storage chamber 211, thereby reducing the risk of blockage caused by excessive number of sub-workpieces 2a in the material storage chamber 211.

[0035] Furthermore, the silo 300 may be funnel-shaped to facilitate the sub-workpiece 2 a to enter the conduit 500 .

[0036] Please refer to FIG. 1 in conjunction with FIG. 4 . In one embodiment, the body 210 is provided with a feed channel 217 connected to the material receiving chamber 211 . The conduit 500 is plugged into and connected to the feed channel 217 to deliver the sub-workpiece 2a into the material receiving chamber 211 through the feed channel 217 .

[0037] Regarding the plugging action of the bonding head 200 and the mother workpiece 2b, the mother workpiece 2b may be actively lifted up to be plugged with the bonding head 200 and push the ejector pin 220. Alternatively, the bonding head 200 may be actively pressed down to be plugged with the mother workpiece 2b, so that the mother workpiece 2b pushes the ejector pin 220. As shown in FIG1 , in one embodiment, the mounting device 10 includes a longitudinal drive member 700, which is connected to the bonding head 200 to drive the bonding head 200 to be pressed down along the reference direction S toward the mother workpiece 2b, so that the mother workpiece 2b can be inserted into the opening 212 and the ejector pin 220 is pushed up.

[0038] Please refer to FIG. 1 , in one embodiment, when the opening 212 is opened, the sub-workpiece 2a can enter the side hole 2c through the opening 212 due to gravity. For example, when the mounting device 10 is in normal assembly operation, in the direction of gravity, the material receiving cavity 211 is located above the side hole 2c of the mother workpiece 2b, so when the opening 212 is opened, the sub-workpiece 2a can automatically enter the side hole 2c through the opening 212 due to its own gravity.

[0039] Alternatively, in another embodiment, the assembly device 1 may further include a vacuum generator (not shown in the figure, the same below), which is used to form a negative pressure in the side hole 2c. Thus, when the opening 212 is opened, the sub-workpiece 2a can be guided into the side hole 2c through the opening 212 by negative pressure adsorption. For example, the carrier 20 is provided with a negative pressure channel (not shown in the figure, the same below) for connecting to the side hole 2c of the mother workpiece 2b, and the vacuum generator is connected to the negative pressure channel to form a negative pressure in the negative pressure channel and the side hole 2c.

[0040] Of course, the sub-workpiece 2a can also be guided into the side hole 2c under the dual effects of gravity and negative pressure adsorption.

[0041] Please refer to FIG. 4 and FIG. 5. In one embodiment, the bottom wall of the material containing cavity 211 is further provided with an introduction annular surface 213, and the opening 212 is provided on the bottom wall of the material containing cavity 211 and is located in the central area 214 of the introduction annular surface 213. The central area 214 of the introduction annular surface 213 is gradually recessed relative to the edge area 215 of the introduction annular surface 213, so as to guide the sub-workpiece 2a into the opening 212. Thus, the area of ​​the introduction annular surface 213 located between the edge area 215 and the area where the opening 212 is located, and thus the gradually recessed introduction annular surface 213 can guide the sub-workpiece 2a in the material containing cavity 211 to smoothly enter the opening 212, thereby improving the smoothness of assembly.

[0042] The central area 214 refers to the area in the center of the introduction annular surface 213 relative to the edge area 215, and does not limit the opening 212 to be opened at the centroid of the shape of the introduction annular surface 213. As long as the area of ​​the introduction annular surface 213 between the edge area 215 and the area where the opening 212 is located can guide the sub-workpiece 2a in the material holding cavity 211 into the opening 212, it is sufficient. Of course, the embodiments of the present application do not exclude the arrangement of the opening 212 at the centroid of the shape of the introduction annular surface 213.

[0043] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 again. In one embodiment, the mounting device 10 further includes a rotary drive member 600, which is disposed on the support seat 100 and connected to the bonding head 200. The rotary drive member 600 is used to drive the bonding head 200 to rotate relative to the mother workpiece 2b, so that the side hole 2c can be aligned with the sub-workpiece 2a at various positions in the circumferential direction of the opening 212, so as to facilitate the sub-workpiece 2a to enter the side hole 2c. With such an arrangement, in the circumferential direction, the bonding head 200 and the mother workpiece 2b do not need to be strictly aligned, reducing the difficulty of automated assembly. It is understandable that the rotational movement of the bonding head 200 can be after the mother workpiece 2b is plugged into the opening 212 and the opening 212 is opened.

[0044] Please refer to FIG. 1 . In one embodiment, the rotary drive member 600 and the bonding head 200 can be connected to the support base 100 via a longitudinal drive member 700. The longitudinal drive member 700 can drive the rotary drive member 600 and the bonding head 200 to move longitudinally synchronously. In one embodiment, the mounting device 10 can also include a transverse drive member (not shown in the figure, the same below). The longitudinal drive member 700 is connected to the support base 100 via the transverse drive member. The transverse drive member is used to drive the bonding head 200 to move transversely to align with different mother workpieces 2b.

[0045] In one embodiment, a mother workpiece 2b can carry multiple sub-workpieces 2a. The side holes 2c can be distributed at intervals in the circumferential direction of the mother workpiece 2b. Since the bonding head 200 can rotate, during the rotation of the bonding head 200, the sub-workpieces 2a located at various positions in the material holding cavity 211 can rotate with the bonding head 200 to positions aligned with the side holes 2c, so as to conveniently enter the side holes 2c.

[0046] In one embodiment, the push rod 220 can be arranged concentrically with the opening 212, that is, the central axis of the push rod 220 coincides with the central axis of the opening 212, so that the sub-workpieces 2a located at various circumferential locations of the opening 212 can easily enter the side hole 2c through the opening 212.

[0047] Of course, in another embodiment, the shape of the material holding cavity 211 can be adjusted to limit the position of the sub-workpiece 2a in the circumferential direction, and the carrier 20 can be configured to limit the circumferential position of the mother workpiece 2b, so that the position of the sub-workpiece 2a is aligned with the position of the side hole 2c. Thus, after the mother workpiece 2b is inserted into the opening 212, the sub-workpiece 2a can directly enter the corresponding side hole 2c.

[0048] The circumferential direction may be a circumferential direction surrounding the reference direction S mentioned above.

[0049] Please refer to FIG. 4 . In one embodiment, the push rod 220 has a blocking position and an open position. The push rod 220 is used to be lifted by the mother workpiece 2b and move from the blocking position to the open position. The push rod 220 can be reset to the blocking position when not being lifted. When the push rod 220 is in the blocking position, the push rod 220 blocks the opening 212. When the push rod 220 is in the open position, the push rod 220 is located in the material chamber 211 to open the opening 212, allowing the sub-workpiece 2a to enter the side hole 2c. Since the push rod 220 has a reset function, when the mother workpiece 2b is withdrawn from the bonding head 200, the push rod 220 can be restored to the blocking position to prevent the sub-workpiece 2a from leaking out of the opening 212.

[0050] As shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. 5 , the ejector pin 220 is in the blocking position. It should be noted that the ejector pin 220 can achieve blocking without being in contact with the hole wall of the opening 212, as long as the distance between the outer peripheral surface of the ejector pin 220 and the hole wall of the opening 212 is smaller than the size (e.g., diameter) of the sub-workpiece 2a. The distance between the outer peripheral surface of the ejector pin 220 and the hole wall of the opening 212 can be set according to the size of the sub-workpiece 2a in actual design.

[0051] In one embodiment, the joint head 200 includes a reset member (not shown in the figure, the same below), which is elastically connected between the push rod 220 and the body 210, and is used to drive the push rod 220 to move from the open position to the blocked position when the push rod 220 is not lifted. Further, the body 210 can be provided with a through hole 216, the through hole 216 is connected to the material chamber 211, and the push rod 220 is movably penetrated through the through hole 216. The reset member can be located in the through hole 216 and sleeved on the push rod 220, and the two ends of the reset member are respectively in contact with the body 210 and the push rod 220. When the push rod 220 is lifted, the reset member is elastically compressed. When the push rod 220 is no longer lifted, the reset member elastically pushes the push rod 220 to reset to block the opening 212. The reset member can be configured as a compression spring. Of course, the same applies to other forms of reset methods, so it will not be repeated.

[0052] As shown in Fig. 4, in one embodiment, the output shaft of the rotary drive member 600 can be connected to the body 210 to drive the bonding head 200 to rotate as a whole. Of course, the output shaft of the rotary drive member 600 can be connected to both the body 210 and the push rod 220 to drive the bonding head 200 to rotate.

[0053] Please refer to FIGS. 3 to 5 . In one embodiment, the push rod 220 includes a rod body 221 and an abutting body 222. The abutting body 222 is disposed on the outer periphery of the rod body 221. The reset member may be abutted between the abutting body 222 and the main body 210. The abutting body 222 is configured to be spaced apart from the free end of the rod body 221. The portion of the rod body 221 between the abutting body 222 and the free end of the rod body 221 is referred to as the plug-in section 223. The plug-in section 223 is used to be plugged into the axial hole 2d of the mother workpiece 2b. The abutting body 222 is used to be abutted by the mother workpiece 2b to lift the push rod 220. Due to the presence of the plug-in section 223, the abutting body 222 abuts against the mother workpiece 2b to lift the push rod 220 after the push rod 220 and the mother workpiece 2b have been plugged to a certain extent. That is to say, the push rod 220 can position the mother workpiece 2b before being lifted up, thereby reducing the probability that the position of the mother workpiece 2b is offset and the child workpiece 2a cannot smoothly enter the side hole 2c.

[0054] Furthermore, the shaft hole 2d is connected to the side hole 2c, and the vacuum generator can form negative pressure in the side hole 2c through the shaft hole 2d to adsorb the sub-workpiece 2a. Therefore, the plug-in section 223 and the shaft hole 2d can plug and block the end of the shaft hole 2d away from the vacuum generator, thereby improving the vacuum adsorption effect in the side hole 2c.

[0055] 5 , in one embodiment, the joint head 200 further includes a sealing ring 230, which is sleeved on the outer periphery of the plug section 223. When the plug section 223 is plugged into the shaft hole 2d, the sealing ring 230 abuts between the plug section 223 and the inner wall of the shaft hole 2d to improve the sealing effect.

[0056] Please refer to FIG. 5 . In one embodiment, the plug-in section 223 includes a guide section 224, a transition section 225 and a matching section 226 connected in sequence. The guide section 224 is located at one end close to the opening 212 relative to the matching section 226, so the guide section 224 can be plugged with the female workpiece 2b before the matching section 226. In addition, the outer diameter of the guide section 224 is smaller than that of the matching section 226, and the guide section 224 can play a role in guiding the plug-in. The outer diameter of the matching section 226 can match the shaft hole 2d, and the sealing ring 230 is sleeved on the matching section 226. The outer diameter of one end of the transition section 225 is the same as that of the guide section 224, and the outer diameter of the other end is the same as that of the matching section 226. In the direction from the guide section 224 to the matching section 226, the outer diameter of the transition section 225 gradually increases. The transition section 225 can play an intermediate transition guiding role in the plug-in process of the ejector 220 and the female workpiece 2b, so that the female workpiece 2b finally moves to a position where it is tightly plugged and matched with the matching section 226.

[0057] As shown in FIG5 , in one embodiment, when the push rod 220 is in the blocking position, at least part of the structure of the plug section 223 is located in the opening 212 to block the opening 212. When the push rod 220 is in the open position, the plug section 223 is located in the material holding cavity 211 to open the opening 212, allowing the sub-workpiece 2a to enter the side hole 2c.

[0058] In one embodiment, the insertion section 223 is arranged concentrically with the opening 212 , so that the sub-workpieces 2 a located at various locations around the opening 212 can conveniently enter the side hole 2 c through the opening 212 .

[0059] Please refer to FIG. 6 . In one embodiment, the carrier 20 is provided with a placement hole 21 for placing the mother workpiece 2b. The assembly device 1 further includes a positioning structure (not shown in the figure, the same below). The positioning structure can limit the mother workpiece 2b so that the mother workpiece 2b remains fixed during the rotation of the bonding head 200, so as to facilitate the alignment of the sub-workpieces 2a and the side holes 2c at various locations in the material chamber 211. Alternatively, in another embodiment, the placement hole 21 can be directly set to cooperate with the mother workpiece 2b in positioning so as to limit the mother workpiece 2b.

[0060] Furthermore, the positioning structure includes a clamping claw. The carrier 20 is provided with an inner extending hole 22 communicating with the placement hole 21, and the clamping claw movably passes through the inner extending hole 22 for positioning, matching or separation with the mother workpiece 2b.

[0061] In one embodiment, the negative pressure channel may be in communication with the placement hole 21, so that the vacuum generator can form negative pressure in the shaft hole 2d and the side hole 2c.

[0062] The technical features of the above-described embodiments may be arbitrarily combined. To make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-described embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0063] The above-described embodiments only express several implementation methods of the present application, and the descriptions thereof are relatively specific and detailed, but they cannot be construed as limiting the scope of the patent application. It should be pointed out that, for a person of ordinary skill in the art, several variations and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the present application, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present application. Therefore, the protection scope of the patent application shall be subject to the attached claims.
