[0020] See also Figure 1-7 The present invention provides an embodiment: an automatic assembly machine for colored balls and covers, comprising an assembly table 1, a transplanting frame 2 is fixedly mounted on the assembly table 1, a transplanting mechanism 3 is fixedly mounted on the transplanting frame 2, and a material taking mechanism 4 is fixedly mounted at the bottom end of the transplanting mechanism 3; Specifically, please refer to the attached manual Figure 4 As shown, the transplanting mechanism 3 includes a fixed frame plate 301, and there are two fixed frame plates 301 in total. The two fixed frame plates 301 are symmetrically installed on the transplanting frame 2. A sliding plate 302 is slidably connected between the upper surfaces of the two fixed frame plates 301. Transplanting cylinders 303 are provided at both the front and rear ends of the sliding plate 302. The transplanting cylinder 303 is fixedly installed on the transplanting frame 2. The output rod of the transplanting cylinder 303 is fixedly connected to the sliding plate 302. A lifting cylinder 304 is fixedly installed at the center position of the upper surface of the sliding plate 302. The output rod of the lifting cylinder 304 is fixedly connected to the material taking mechanism 4. According to the above structure, the two transplanting cylinders 303 can drive the sliding plate 302 at the top thereof to perform linear displacement to the left and right through relative operation; Please refer to the instruction manual for details Figure 4 It is understood that when the cylinder rod on the left is extended, the cylinder rod on the right is retracted, and the sliding plate 302 moves to the right. When the cylinder rod on the left is retracted, the cylinder rod on the right is extended, and the sliding plate 302 can be driven to move to the left. Thus, the relative operation of the two groups of cylinders can drive the material taking mechanism under the sliding plate 302 to perform linear displacement left and right, which is convenient for mobile material taking. The lifting cylinder 304 can drive the material taking mechanism 4 at the bottom to perform lifting and lowering work through its output rod, so that the material can be taken and put away during the lifting and lowering. For further details, please refer to the attached manual. Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, in order to illustrate the specific structure of the material picking mechanism 4, the material picking mechanism 4 includes a material picking center plate 401, and the front and rear ends of the material picking center plate 401 are slidably connected to the side slide plate 402, and a plurality of fixed blocks 403 with equal spacing and linear distribution are fixedly installed on the side slide plate 402. A material picking clamp 404 is arranged on one side of each fixed block 403, and the material picking clamp 404 is slidably connected to the side slide plate 402, and the material picking clamp 404 and the fixed block 403 are connected by a spring 405. A gear plate 406 is fixedly installed at the center position of the upper surface of the two side slide plates 402, and a driving gear 407 is meshed and connected between the two gear plates 406. The driving gear 407 is rotatably installed on the upper surface of the material picking center plate 401 through a bearing, and the driving gear 407 is connected to the output shaft of the rotary motor (the rotary motor is blocked and not shown in the figure); This structural design is specifically referred to in the instructions. Figure 6 As shown, when the material taking mechanism 4 takes the material from the sphere, the lifting cylinder 304 can drive the material taking mechanism 4 to descend as a whole through its output rod. During the descending process of the material taking mechanism 4, the material taking claws 404 on the two side slides 402 at the front and rear ends will touch the outer wall of the sphere; During the continuous descending operation, the outer wall of the sphere will push the material taking clamps 404 toward both sides, so that the material taking clamps 404 at both sides slide toward the outside of the sphere, and at this time, the distance between the two material taking clamps 404 gradually increases; When the material picking clamp 404 slides toward the side of the ball, the spring 405 will be stretched, so that the spring 405 is in a stretched state. When the spring 405 is stretched, it will generate an inward rebound force. Therefore, the two material picking clamps 404 can clamp the colored ball between them through the stretched rebound force of the spring 405, thereby completing the material picking and clamping work of the colored ball, and having the effect of lowering the material.
[0021] When the colored balls need to be discharged, the rotating motor can drive the driving gear 407 to rotate. When the driving gear 407 rotates, it drives the side slides 402 at the front and rear ends to move relative to each other through the gear plate 406, that is, the side slide 402 at the front end moves to the left, and the side slide 402 at the right end moves to the right. The relative displacement of the two side slides 402 can drive the material picking claws 404 thereon to move relative to each other. At this time, the distance between the two material picking claws 404 outside the ball increases due to the relative movement. The colored ball falls freely after being freed from the clamping of the material picking claws 404, thereby completing the automatic discharge processing of the colored ball.
[0022] A plurality of evenly arranged ball cover feeders 5 are fixedly mounted on one side of the upper surface of the assembly table 1, and a plurality of evenly arranged sphere feeders 6 are fixedly mounted on the other side of the upper surface of the assembly table 1. Both the ball cover feeders 5 and the sphere feeders 6 are linear vibrating feeders. The linear vibrating feeder is a mature prior art product on the existing market. It can perform linear vibration conveying on the loaded products, and can adjust the posture of the materials during the vibration conveying process. It is a mature and widely used prior art product on the market, and this specification does not elaborate too much on its detailed structure and working principle. The ball cover feeder 5 and the ball body feeder 6 can respectively perform direct vibration feeding work on the ball body and the ball cover of the colored ball in a specified posture, so that the ball body and the ball cover are respectively transported to one end close to the transplanting mechanism 3; A ball cap loader 7 is provided at the tail end of the ball cap feeder 5 and located outside the assembly table 1 , and a ball loader 8 is provided at the tail end of the ball feeder 6 and located outside the assembly table 1 .
[0023] In this embodiment, please refer to the attached specification for details. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, both the ball cap feeder 7 and the sphere feeder 8 are plate-type lifting feeders, and the feeding plates of the ball cap feeder 7 and the sphere feeder 8 are provided with equally spaced feeding blocks. In actual use, a ball cap or a sphere can be placed and conveyed between two adjacent feeding blocks, so as to have the use characteristics of quantitative feeding; It should also be noted that the plate-type lifting loader is a mature existing technology product that has been widely used in industrial production. Its specific structure and working principle are already public and mature technical features, and this manual will not go into detail about its specific composition structure and working principle.
[0024] In this embodiment, in order to facilitate the unloading of the finished product after assembly, a unloading channel 9 is provided between the tops of the ball cover feeder 5 and the ball feeder 6, and the assembled ball can be unloaded through the unloading channel 9; Further, in order to carry out unloading and transportation of the finished ball after pressing and assembling, please refer to the attached manual for details. Figure 1 As shown, a receiving box 10 is placed at the bottom of the unloading channel 9 and below the assembly table 1. Moving wheels are provided at the four corners of the bottom of the receiving box 10, so that when the assembled spheres are full, they can be easily drawn out and transported.
[0025] In this embodiment, in order to facilitate the functional operation and parameter control of the assembly machine, a control panel 11 is fixedly installed at a corner of the upper surface of the assembly table 1 through a support rod. The control panel 11 is composed of a display screen and a plurality of buttons.
[0026] Working principle: Before use, pour the ball caps to be assembled into the ball cap feeder 7, and pour the balls to be assembled into the ball body feeder 8; In actual use, the ball cover feeder 7 and the ball body feeder 8 can work, and the ball cover feeder 7 and the ball body feeder 8 respectively convey a certain amount of balls and balls to a plurality of ball cover feeders and a ball feeder 6; At this time, the ball cover feeder 5 and the ball body feeder 6 can respectively perform direct vibration feeding work on the ball body and the ball cover of the colored ball in a specified posture, so that the ball body and the ball cover are respectively transported to one end close to the transplanting mechanism 3; After the ball and the ball cover are transported, the two transplanting cylinders 303 can be used for work. Figure 1 As shown, when the transplanting cylinder 303 is working, the transplanting cylinder 303 at the left end drives the rod body to extend, while the transplanting cylinder at the right end drives the rod body 303 to retract. At this time, the sliding plate 302 moves from left to right, so that the material taking mechanism 4 is placed directly above the ball feeder 6; Then, the lifting cylinder 304 is set to work, and the lifting cylinder 304 drives the material taking mechanism 4 to descend. During the descending process of the material taking mechanism 4, the material taking claws 404 on the two side slides 402 at the front and rear ends will touch the outer wall of the sphere; During the continuous descending operation, the outer wall of the sphere will push the material taking clamps 404 toward both sides, so that the material taking clamps 404 at both sides slide toward the outside of the sphere, and at this time, the distance between the two material taking clamps 404 gradually increases; The spring 405 is stretched during the sliding displacement of the material taking clamping claw 404 toward the side of the ball, so that the spring 405 is in a stretched state. When the spring 405 is stretched, an inward rebound force is generated, so that the ball body between the two material taking clamping claws 404 can be clamped by the stretching rebound force of the spring 405, thereby completing the material taking and clamping work of the ball, and having the effect of descending to take the material; When the material taking mechanism 4 finishes taking the material, the lifting cylinder 304 drives the material taking mechanism 4 to rise and reset through the rod body, and then the two transplanting cylinders 303 operate relatively. At this time, the transplanting cylinder 303 at the left end drives the rod body to retract, while the transplanting cylinder 303 at the right end drives the rod body to extend. In this process, the sliding plate 302 drives the material taking mechanism 4 at the bottom end to move from right to left to just above the ball cover; Then the lifting cylinder 304 drives the material taking mechanism 4 to descend through the rod body. During the descending process of the material taking mechanism 4, the convex button on the bottom ball thereof will be inserted into the ball cover, thereby completing the press-fit assembly work between the ball cover and the ball. After the assembly work is completed, the two transplanting cylinders 303 operate relative to each other, so that the material taking mechanism 4 moves to the top of the material discharging channel 9; The rotating motor can drive the driving gear 407 to rotate. When the driving gear 407 rotates, it drives the side slides 402 at the front and rear ends to move relative to each other through the gear plate 406, that is, the side slide 402 at the front end moves to the left, and the side slide 402 at the right end moves to the right. The relative displacement of the two side slides 402 can drive the material taking clamps 404 thereon to move relative to each other. At this time, the distance between the two material taking clamps 404 outside the ball increases due to the relative movement. The ball falls freely after no longer being clamped by the material taking clamps 404, thereby completing the automatic material discharge process of the ball. The discharged colored balls can enter the receiving box 10 through the unloading channel 9, and can be extracted and transported after the receiving box 10 is full of balls.
[0027] To sum up, the automatic assembly machine for colored balls and cover bodies of the present invention can complete the separate feeding work of colored balls and cover bodies, and through the coordinated use of the transplanting mechanism and the material taking mechanism, it can automatically take, assemble and discharge the colored balls. It has the automatic assembly characteristics of colored ball production, and does not require manual assembly operations. Automatic production is performed by machines instead of manual labor, which can effectively improve the assembly efficiency of colored balls and cover bodies, and improve the overall production speed of colored balls. At the same time, it can effectively reduce the investment in human resource costs, reduce production costs, and improve the economic benefits of the enterprise. It has the actual use effect of reducing costs and increasing efficiency, and is more practical. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above and that the invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential features of the invention.
