Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of crimping technology, and in particular to a crimping method for an insulator product. Background Art

[0002] Insulator products are usually assembled from core rods, slender end fittings, silicone sheds and other accessories. In the process of assembling the core rods and the end fittings, the prior art usually uses manual methods to assemble the two and then move them to a crimping machine for crimping. Manual assembly increases the time and labor costs of manufacturing, and has low production efficiency. Manual positioning of the crimping position is prone to problems with the core rod and the end fitting not being properly fitted, resulting in the assembly size being too long and the crimping position being offset, making it impossible to stably guarantee product quality. Summary of the invention

[0003] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the purpose of the present application is to provide a crimping method that can automatically perform twist sleeve and crimping operations, ensure product quality, and have high production efficiency.

[0004] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the technical solution adopted in the present application is: a crimping method for an insulator product, comprising the following steps: Step S10: placing a core rod on a core rod supporting device, and placing a hardware on the hardware supporting device; Step S20: driving at least one of the core rod supporting device and the hardware supporting device to move to a preset sleeve position, and using a positioning mechanism to movably abut the hardware so that the hardware is sleeved on the end of the core rod; Step S30: using a crimping machine to crimp the hardware sleeved on the end of the core rod.

[0005] Among them, step S20 includes: step S201: controlling the moving component to drive the positioning component to move, so that the positioning component abuts the end of the hardware; step S202: controlling the mandrel support device to drive the mandrel to move toward the hardware, so that the hardware is partially sleeved on the end of the mandrel; step S203: controlling the mandrel support device to drive the mandrel to continue to move toward the hardware, so that the hardware is completely sleeved on the end of the mandrel.

[0006] Among them, after step S203 and before step S30, it also includes: S204: controlling the hardware moving mechanism to drive the hardware supporting mechanism to withdraw the mandrel from the range of moving toward the crimping machine; S205: controlling the moving component to drive the positioning component to return to its original position.

[0007] Among them, step S30 includes: step S301: controlling the lifting mechanism to drive the core rod with the hardware sleeved to move to the target height; step S302: using the core rod support device to drive the core rod with the hardware sleeved to move to a preset crimping position; step S303: the crimping machine performs a crimping operation to crimp the hardware onto the end of the core rod.

[0008] Before step S301, the method further includes: step S304: adjusting the height of the limiting member to a target height.

[0009] Wherein, after step S301 and before step S302, the method further includes: step S50: using a detection mechanism to detect whether the socketing position of the hardware on the mandrel is accurate.

[0010] Wherein, step S50 includes: step S501: controlling the fourth power component to drive the reference component to move to a preset crimping position; step S502: the sleeve detection component detects whether the spring component is deformed.

[0011] Among them, in step S502, when the socket position of the hardware on the core rod is inaccurate, the hardware pushes the reference part compression spring part to deform, driving the notch of the detection plate to move between the transmitter and the receiver, and the receiver recognizes the laser signal emitted by the transmitter and sends a warning signal.

[0012] Wherein, after step S30, the method further includes: step S40: using a rotating mechanism to adjust the positions of the two ends of the core rod, and repeating steps S20 and S30 to form an insulator product.

[0013] Wherein, step S40 includes: step S401: using the zero position detection component to detect whether the working position of the first support plate is accurate; step S402: controlling the rotating power component to drive the turntable to rotate 180° to adjust the positions of the two ends of the core rod on the first support plate.

[0014] The beneficial effect of the present application is that, different from the prior art, after the mandrel is placed on the mandrel support device and the hardware is placed on the hardware support device, the crimping system of the present application will automatically operate, control the mandrel and the hardware to complete the twisting socketing at the preset socketing position, and control them to move to the preset crimping position, and use the crimping machine to crimp the hardware to the end of the mandrel. Compared with the manual method, the crimping efficiency and product quality can be improved. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0023] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the present application provides a crimping system 100 for an insulator product, including a crimping machine 110, a support platform 120, and a positioning mechanism 130. The support platform 120 is located on one side of the crimping machine 110. A core rod support device 140 and at least one hardware support device 150 are provided on the support platform 120. The core rod support device 140 is used to support the core rod and control the movement of the core rod. The hardware support device 150 is used to support the hardware and control the movement of the hardware. The hardware support device 150 is arranged on the core rod support device 140. 0, so as to facilitate the sleeve connection of the hardware with the core rod; the positioning mechanism 130 is located between the supporting platform 120 and the crimping machine 110, and is used to movably abut the hardware when the hardware is sleeved on the end of the core rod; wherein, when the crimping system 100 is working, the core rod supporting device 140 and the hardware supporting device 150 cooperate to move at least one of the core rod and the hardware, so that the hardware is sleeved on the end of the core rod, and the crimping machine 110 crimps the hardware sleeved on the core rod to form an insulator product.

[0024] The crimping system 100 in the present application is mainly used for producing insulator products. The crimping system 100 can adjust some parameters according to actual production requirements, such as the length of the insulator product, the crimping position of the hardware, etc.

[0025] In one embodiment, after the mandrel is placed on the mandrel support device 140 and the hardware is placed on the hardware support device 150, the crimping system 100 can start the socketing operation of the mandrel and the hardware. The crimping system 100 controls the mandrel support device 140 to push the mandrel in the direction of the hardware, and the hardware support device 150 is fixed and does not move until the hardware is socketed on the end of the mandrel. In other embodiments, after the mandrel and the hardware are placed separately, the mandrel support device can also be controlled to be fixed and does not move, and the crimping system controls the hardware support device to push the hardware in the direction of the mandrel; or the mandrel support device and the hardware support device can be controlled to move toward each other at the same time until the hardware is socketed on the end of the mandrel, and no specific limitation is made here.

[0026] In one application scenario, a socketing position can be preset in the crimping system 100, the mandrel is transported to the preset socketing position by the mandrel supporting device 140, and the hardware supporting device 150 transports the hardware to the preset socketing position. The crimping system 100 controls at least one of the mandrel supporting device 140 and the hardware supporting device 150 to move at the preset socketing position to socket the hardware onto the end of the mandrel.

[0027] In one embodiment, a hardware support device 150 can be provided, which is located on one side of the mandrel supporting device 140. The mandrel can be placed on the mandrel supporting device 140 first, and one of the hardware is placed on the hardware support device 150. After the first sleeve and crimping operation is completed, the hardware can be assembled on one end of the mandrel. Then, another hardware is placed on the hardware support device 150, the direction of the mandrel is turned, and the second sleeve and crimping operation is completed, and the other hardware can be assembled on the other end of the mandrel.

[0028] In another embodiment, two hardware support devices 150 can be provided, which are respectively located on both sides of the mandrel support device 140. The mandrel can be placed on the mandrel support device 140 first, and the two hardware can be placed on the two hardware support devices 150 respectively, and the first sleeve connection and crimping operation and the second sleeve connection and crimping operation can be completed in sequence, so that the production cycle is more compact and the efficiency is higher.

[0029] Combination Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the support platform 120 includes a first support plate 121, a rotating mechanism 122, and a lifting mechanism 123. The mandrel support device 140 and the hardware support device 150 are arranged on the first support plate 121; the rotating mechanism 122 is arranged below the first support plate 121, and is used to drive the first support plate 121 to rotate, so that the direction of the mandrel and the hardware can be turned according to the working requirements; the lifting mechanism 123 is arranged below the first support plate 121, and is used to adjust the height of the first support plate 121, so that the height of the mandrel and the hardware can be controlled.

[0030] In one embodiment, the rotating mechanism 122 includes a rotating seat 1221 and a rotating power assembly 1222, wherein the rotating seat 1221 is fixedly connected to the first support plate 121; the rotating power assembly 1222 is connected to the rotating seat 1221 through a speed regulator, and is used to drive the rotating seat 1221 to rotate. Specifically, the rotating seat 1221 includes a base 12211 and a turntable 12212, wherein the base 12211 is fixedly connected to the lifting mechanism 123 through fasteners such as bolts and nuts, the turntable 12212 is rotatably connected to the top of the base 12211, and the turntable 12212 is fixedly connected to the first support plate 121 through fasteners such as bolts and nuts; the rotating power assembly 1222 is connected to the turntable 12212 through a speed regulator, and is used to drive the turntable 12212 to rotate, so as to drive the mandrel and the hardware on the first support plate 121 to rotate around the axis of the turntable 12212, thereby changing the position of the end of the mandrel and the hardware. It is understandable that the rotating power component 1222 can be a power source such as a motor, and no specific limitation is made here.

[0031] Furthermore, a zero position detection component can be provided on the first support plate 121 to detect whether the working position of the first support plate 121 is accurate. When the first support plate 121 is located at the working position, the core rod, the hardware and the positions where the two are crimped at the crimping machine 110 are located on the same straight line, so that the core rod and the hardware can be directly coaxially sleeved, and after the hardware is sleeved on the core rod, it can be directly moved along the axial direction of the core rod to the crimping machine 110 for subsequent crimping operations, making the moving path of the core rod and the hardware simpler and faster, and improving production efficiency. If the zero position detection component detects that the first support plate 121 is not accurately located at the working position, the first support plate 121 can be controlled to rotate to the working position through the rotating mechanism 122. It can be understood that the zero position detection component can be a detection device or circuit such as a laser detection sensor, as long as it can achieve the corresponding function, and no specific limitation is made here.

[0032] In one embodiment, the lifting mechanism 123 includes a bottom plate 1231, a guide assembly 1232, a first lifting plate 1233, a second lifting plate 1234 and a lifting power assembly 1235. The guide assembly 1232 is arranged on the bottom plate 1231 in the vertical direction. The guide assembly 1232 includes two guide plates 12321. The two guide plates 12321 are arranged on the bottom plate 1231 with a spacing and relative to each other. The two guide plates 12321 are correspondingly provided with guide rails in the vertical direction. The first lifting plate 1233 is located below the first support plate 121, and the first lifting plate 1233 is slidably connected to the guide assembly 1232, that is, the first lifting plate 1233 is fixedly connected to the base 12211 by fasteners such as bolts and nuts, and the two ends of the first lifting plate 1233 are respectively connected by sliding The block is slidably connected to the guide rails on the two guide plates 12321; the second lifting plate 1234 is fixed to the bottom of the first lifting plate 1233 by a lifting guide column 1236, that is, the lifting guide column 1236 passes through the bottom plate 1231 in the vertical direction, and the upper and lower ends of the lifting guide column 1236 are respectively fixedly connected to the first lifting plate 1233 and the second lifting plate 1234 by fasteners such as bolts and nuts, so that the first lifting plate 1233 and the second lifting plate 1234 are both arranged in the horizontal direction; the lifting power assembly 1235 is fixed to the bottom of the second lifting plate 1234, and is used to drive the second lifting plate 1234 to move in the vertical direction, so as to drive the first lifting plate 1233 to move on the guide assembly 1232, thereby controlling the height of the core rod and the hardware on the first support plate 121. It can be understood that the lifting power assembly 1235 can be a power source such as a motor or a cylinder, and no specific limitation is made here. Figure 3 In this embodiment, the first lifting plate 1233 is fixedly connected to the rotating mechanism 122. In other embodiments, the first lifting plate can be directly fixed below the first supporting plate.

[0033] In one embodiment, the lifting mechanism 123 further includes a plurality of limiters 1237, which are disposed on the upper side of the guide assembly 1232 and above the first lifting plate 1233, and are used to abut against the first lifting plate 1233 to limit the maximum moving height of the first lifting plate 1233. On the one hand, the first lifting plate 1233 can be limited to a target crimping height by the limiters 1237, so that the subsequent crimping system 100 can directly perform crimping operations at this height without the need for secondary height adjustment, thereby improving production efficiency; on the other hand, it can prevent the first lifting plate 1233 from moving too far and damaging other parts of the equipment, thereby extending the service life of the crimping system 100.

[0034] The limiting member 1237 can be a limiting plate. The tops of the two guide plates 12321 are both fixed with limiting plates in the horizontal direction. The two limiting plates are close to each other. The ends of the two limiting plates close to each other and the projections of the two ends of the first lifting plate 1233 on the horizontal plane have a partial overlapping area, which is defined as a limiting area. When the lifting mechanism 123 is in operation, the lifting power assembly 1235 drives the second lifting plate 1234 to move upward, driving the first lifting plate 1233 to continue to move upward until the first lifting plate 1233 abuts against the limiting area of ​​the limiting plate, reaches the maximum moving height and stops moving.

[0035] Furthermore, in order to facilitate the adjustment of the maximum moving height of the first lifting plate 1233, a screw hole can be opened in the limiting area on the limiting plate, and a limiting nut is provided in the screw hole. When the lifting mechanism 123 is in operation, the lifting power assembly 1235 drives the second lifting plate 1234 to move upward, driving the first lifting plate 1233 to continue to move upward until the first lifting plate 1233 abuts against the bottom of the limiting nut on the limiting plate, reaches the maximum moving height and stops moving. By adjusting the height of the limiting nut, the maximum moving height of the first lifting plate 1233 can be easily adjusted, which is convenient for quickly limiting the core rods and hardware of different specifications to the target crimping height for crimping operations, while expanding the application range of the crimping system 100 and making the production cycle more compact and efficient. It can be understood that the number of limiting nuts can be two, three, etc., and no specific restrictions are made here.

[0036] In one embodiment, the lifting mechanism 123 further includes a plurality of auxiliary support members 1238, which are rotatably disposed on the top of the guide assembly 1232 and abut against the first support plate 121, and are used to auxiliary support the first support plate 121. On the one hand, the provision of the auxiliary support members 1238 can make the mandrel and the hardware on the first support plate 121 more stable and reliable, and avoid the unstable placement thereof affecting the sleeve connection and crimping operation, thereby affecting the product quality; on the other hand, when the first support plate 121 rotates, the auxiliary support members 1238 can rotate with it, reducing the friction between the two, slowing down the wear of the equipment, and extending the service life.

[0037] The auxiliary support member 1238 can be a roller structure, and auxiliary plates are provided on both guide plates 12321. The auxiliary support member 1238 is arranged on the auxiliary plate and abuts against the lower plate surface of the first support plate 121. A plurality of auxiliary support members 1238 can cooperate to increase the supporting action points of the lifting mechanism 123 on the first support plate 121 to ensure the supporting effect. It can be understood that the specific number and setting position of the auxiliary support members 1238 can be adjusted according to the support requirements, and no specific limitation is made here.

[0038] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the mandrel supporting device 140 includes a mandrel supporting mechanism 141 and a mandrel moving mechanism 142. The mandrel supporting mechanism 141 is used to support the mandrel, and the mandrel moving mechanism 142 is disposed at the bottom of the mandrel supporting mechanism 141 to control the movement of the mandrel.

[0039] In one embodiment, the mandrel support mechanism 141 includes a second support plate 1411, a plurality of mandrel support seats 1412 and a mandrel detection assembly 1413. The second support plate 1411 is arranged on the mandrel moving mechanism 142; a plurality of mandrel support seats 1412 are arranged at intervals on the second support plate 1411 for cooperating in supporting the mandrel; the mandrel detection assembly 1413 is arranged on the second support plate 1411 for detecting whether there is a mandrel on the mandrel support seat 1412.

[0040] The mandrel support seat 1412 can be set as a V-shaped plate, which is set on the second support plate 1411 in the vertical direction, and several V-shaped plates are set at corresponding intervals along the axial direction of the mandrel for placing the mandrel. Further, a fixing piece can be set on the mandrel support seat 1412 to fix the mandrel. For example, the fixing piece can also be set as a V-shaped plate, and the openings of the mandrel support seat 1412 and the V-shaped plate of the fixing piece are set facing each other, and the mandrel is placed in the V-shaped opening of the mandrel support seat 1412, and the mandrel support seat 1412 and the fixing piece are controlled to move towards each other to clamp and fix the mandrel; the fixing piece can also be set as a pressing piece, and when the mandrel is placed in the V-shaped openings of several mandrel support seats 1412, the pressing piece is controlled to move downward to press and fix the mandrel. For another example, a pressing piece may be directly disposed on the second support plate 1411 , and the pressing piece may be located between any two mandrel support seats 1412 . After the mandrel is placed in the V-shaped openings of the two mandrel support seats 1412 , the pressing piece is controlled to move downward to compress and fix the mandrel.

[0041] The mandrel detection assembly 1413 may be disposed on the mandrel support seat 1412, for example, in a groove at the opening of the V-shaped plate, or on one side of the V-shaped plate, or the mandrel detection assembly 1413 may be disposed on the second support plate 1411 to detect whether there is a mandrel on the mandrel support seat 1412. It is understandable that the mandrel detection assembly 1413 may be a detection device or circuit such as a laser detection sensor or a weight detection sensor, and is not specifically limited here.

[0042] In one embodiment, the mandrel moving mechanism 142 includes a first guide rail 1421, a first power assembly 1422 and a first transmission assembly (not shown), the first guide rail 1421 is arranged along a first direction, and the first guide rail 1421 is connected to the mandrel supporting mechanism 141 through a first slider, wherein the first direction is the direction from the socketing position of the mandrel and the hardware to the crimping position of the crimping hardware of the crimping machine 110, so as to facilitate the mandrel to be moved to the crimping machine 110 for crimping through the mandrel moving mechanism 142 after the socketing is completed; the first power assembly 1422 is arranged at one end of the first guide rail 1421; the first transmission assembly is arranged at the bottom of the mandrel supporting mechanism 141, the first transmission assembly is connected to the power output end of the first power assembly 1422, and the first transmission assembly is used to transmit the power output of the first power assembly 1422 to the mandrel supporting mechanism 141, and control the mandrel supporting mechanism 141 to move on the first guide rail 1421. It is understandable that the first power assembly 1422 can be a power source such as a motor, a cylinder, etc.; the first transmission assembly can be a screw transmission structure, a gear transmission structure, etc., and no specific limitation is made here.

[0043] Combination Figure 4 In one embodiment, the hardware support device 150 includes a hardware support mechanism 151 and a hardware moving mechanism 152. The hardware support mechanism 151 is used to support the hardware; the hardware moving mechanism 152 is arranged at the bottom of the hardware support mechanism 151 and is used to control the movement of the hardware.

[0044] The hardware support mechanism 151 includes a third support plate 1511, a hardware support seat 1512 and a hardware detection assembly 1513. The third support plate 1511 is arranged on the hardware moving mechanism 152; the hardware support seat 1512 is arranged on the third support plate 1511 for supporting the hardware; the hardware detection assembly 1513 is arranged on the third support plate 1511 or the hardware support seat 1512 for detecting whether there is a hardware on the hardware support seat 1512.

[0045] To facilitate the stable placement of the hardware, a accommodating cavity matching the shape of the hardware can be set on the hardware support seat 1512. For example, when the number of hardware support devices 150 is one, the shape of the accommodating cavity of the hardware support seat 1512 can be set to match the shapes of two hardware fittings of the insulator product. For another example, when the number of hardware support devices 150 is two, the shapes of the accommodating cavities of the two hardware support seats 1512 can be set to be the same as the shapes of two hardware fittings of the insulator product. In this way, the socketing operation of the two hardware fittings of the insulator product can be completed without replacing the hardware support seat 1512. Alternatively, a clamping piece may be provided in the hardware support device 150, and the clamping piece is a rotatable pressing mechanism. When the hardware needs to be placed on the hardware support seat 1512, the clamping piece is controlled to rotate upward to facilitate the placement of the hardware; after the hardware is initially placed on the hardware support seat 1512, the clamping piece is controlled to rotate downward until the hardware is firmly placed in the accommodating cavity on the hardware support seat 1512; when the positioning mechanism 130 needs to be movably abutted against the hardware, the clamping piece is controlled to rotate upward to release the hardware, so as to facilitate the twisting and movement of the hardware.

[0046] The hardware detection component 1513 can be arranged on the hardware support seat 1512, for example, it can be arranged in the accommodating cavity of the hardware support seat 1512, or it can be arranged on the top of the hardware support seat 1512, or the hardware detection component 1513 can be arranged on the third support plate 1511, and is used to detect whether there is a hardware on the hardware support seat 1512. It can be understood that the hardware detection component 1513 can be a detection device or circuit such as a laser detection sensor, a weight detection sensor, etc., and is not specifically limited here.

[0047] In one embodiment, in order to facilitate the movement of the sleeved core rod to the crimping machine 110 for crimping, the hardware support mechanism 151 needs to be moved to the movement range of the core rod, so a hardware moving mechanism 152 is provided. For example, the hardware support mechanism 151 can be controlled to move downward to exit, and the hardware moving mechanism 152 includes a second guide rail 1521 and a second power assembly 1522. The second guide rail 1521 is arranged on the first support plate 121 in the vertical direction, and the second guide rail 1521 is connected to the hardware support mechanism 151 through a second slider; the second power assembly 1522 is arranged on the first support plate 121 and is located on one side of the second guide rail 1521, and the power output end of the second power assembly 1522 is connected to the hardware support mechanism 151. Used to control the movement of the hardware support mechanism 151 on the second guide rail 1521; correspondingly, the hardware support mechanism 151 and the mandrel support mechanism 141 can be pre-set to be located in the first direction, so that when the hardware is placed on the hardware support mechanism 151 and the mandrel is placed on the mandrel support mechanism 141, the mandrel and the hardware are directly coaxially arranged in the first direction, so that the zero position detection component is used to detect whether the first support plate 121 is aligned with the crimping machine 110 to determine whether the first support plate 121 is accurately located at the operating position. It can be understood that the second power component 1522 can be a power source such as a motor or a cylinder, and no specific limitation is made here. Alternatively, the hardware support mechanism 151 can also be controlled to move and exit along the second direction, wherein the second direction refers to a direction perpendicular to the first direction in a horizontal plane. The hardware moving mechanism 152 can still adopt the aforementioned structure, and it is only necessary to adjust the setting direction of the second guide rail 1521 and connect the components accordingly, which will not be repeated here. Correspondingly, the zero position detection component can be used to detect whether the hardware and core rod on the first support plate 121 are coaxial, and to detect whether the first support plate 121 is aligned with the crimping machine 110, so as to determine whether the first support plate 121 is accurately located in the working position.

[0048] In one embodiment, in order to facilitate the quick cooperation between the hardware support device 150 and the mandrel support device 140 to sleeve the hardware onto the end of the mandrel, a mechanism that can move along the first direction can also be provided in the hardware support device 150 to control the hardware support mechanism 151 to move toward the mandrel support mechanism 141. The specific structure can refer to the mandrel moving mechanism 142 and will not be described in detail.

[0049] like Figure 5 As shown, the positioning mechanism 130 includes a positioning component 131 and a moving component 132. The positioning component 131 is used to movably contact the hardware to be sleeved, and the moving component 132 is used to control the movement of the positioning component 131. The positioning mechanism 130 can simulate the twisting action during manual sleeve connection by movably contacting the hardware to be sleeved through the positioning component 131. At the same time, the mandrel moving mechanism 142 drives the mandrel to move. In this way, the mandrel can be sleeved into the slender inner cavity of the hardware through the mutual cooperation of the torsion of the hardware and the movement of the mandrel, thereby ensuring the sleeve connection quality.

[0050] In one embodiment, the positioning assembly 131 includes a positioning base 1311, a first positioning plate 1312, a second positioning plate 1313 and a positioning roller 1314. The positioning base 1311 is a step-type block structure, including a first cavity 13111 and a second cavity 13112 arranged in sequence from top to bottom. The first cavity 13111 is used to install the first positioning plate 1312, the second positioning plate 1313 and the positioning roller 1314, and the second cavity 13112 is used to accommodate part of the hardware support seat 1512 so that the positioning assembly 131 can fully abut the hardware; the first positioning plate 1312 is arranged on the positioning base 1311 in the vertical direction, and the first positioning plate 1312 is arranged in the second direction to facilitate abutment against the end of the hardware to be sleeved; the second positioning plate 1313 is connected to the It is connected to the bottom end of the first positioning plate 1312, and the upper plate surface of the second positioning plate 1313 is inclined downward in the direction away from the first positioning plate 1312. For example, the second positioning plate 1313 can be a plate with a trapezoidal cross-section, and the plate surface where the lower bottom is located is fixed to the bottom end of the first positioning plate 1312 in the vertical direction, or the second positioning plate 1313 can be an ordinary plate, which is directly fixed to the bottom end of the first positioning plate 1312 along the above-mentioned inclined direction, and no specific restriction is made here; the positioning roller 1314 is a rotatable roller structure, which is arranged on the positioning base 1311 in the vertical direction and the positioning roller 1314 is located on one side of the first positioning plate 1312, and the positioning roller 1314 cooperates with the first positioning plate 1312 and the second positioning plate 1313 to movably abut against the hardware of the reception socket.

[0051] In one embodiment, in order to facilitate the movement of the sleeved mandrel to the crimping machine 110 for crimping, the positioning mechanism 130 needs to be moved to the range of motion of the mandrel, so a moving assembly 132 is provided. For example, the positioning assembly 131 can be controlled to move and exit along the second direction, and the moving assembly 132 includes a mounting plate 1321, a third guide rail 1322, and a third power assembly 1323. The mounting plate 1321 is an L-shaped plate, which is arranged in the vertical direction. The cavity of the L-shaped plate partially overlaps with the second cavity 13112, and the mandrel can pass through and move to the crimping machine 110 for crimping. The mounting plate 1321 can be arranged on the side of the crimping machine 110 close to the support platform 120, so that the layout of the crimping system 100 is more compact and saves floor space, or it can be directly arranged on the crimping machine 110. On the ground, no specific restrictions are made here; the third guide rail 1322 is arranged on the mounting plate 1321 along the second direction, and the positioning assembly 131 is connected to the third guide rail 1322 through the third slider, that is, the side of the positioning base 1311 close to the crimping machine 110 is slidably connected to the third guide rail 1322; the third power assembly 1323 is arranged on the mounting plate 1321 and is located on one side of the third guide rail 1322, and the power output end of the third power assembly 1323 is connected to the positioning assembly 131, which is used to control the positioning assembly 131 to move on the third guide rail 1322. It can be understood that the third power assembly 1323 can be a power source such as a motor or a cylinder, and no specific restrictions are made here. Alternatively, the positioning assembly 131 can also be controlled to move and exit in the vertical direction, and the moving assembly 132 can still adopt the aforementioned structure, as long as the setting direction of the third guide rail 1322 is adjusted and the components are connected accordingly, and no further details are given.

[0052] During the sleeve connection, the mandrel is first placed on the mandrel support seat 1412, and the hardware is placed in the accommodating cavity of the hardware support seat 1512. Then, the moving assembly 132 is controlled to drive the positioning assembly 131 to move from the second direction to the first direction. At this time, the hardware support seat 1512 is partially accommodated in the second cavity 13112, and the inclined upper plate surface of the second positioning plate 1313 abuts the end of the hardware. Then, the mandrel moving mechanism 142 is controlled to move in the first direction to push the mandrel toward the hardware. Under the resistance of the accommodating cavity of the hardware support seat 1512, the end of the mandrel is initially sleeved into the hardware. The mandrel moving mechanism 142 continues to move the mandrel, and the hardware will move toward the positioning mechanism 130 under the action of the thrust, that is, the hardware is pushed to move along the inclined upper plate surface of the second positioning plate 1313 to abut against the first positioning plate 1312 and the positioning roller 1314. Since this abutment method has a certain margin of activity, the hardware will twist in the first cavity 13111. Under the continuous push of the mandrel moving mechanism 142, it will continue to twist so that the mandrel continues to move into the cavity of the hardware until the hardware is completely sleeved on the end of the mandrel, completing the sleeve operation. After the sleeve is completed, the moving component 132 is controlled to drive the positioning component 131 to exit in the second direction, reserving space for the subsequent movement of the mandrel with the hardware to the crimping machine 110 for crimping.

[0053] Furthermore, in order to protect the positioning mechanism 130, a limit assembly 133 may be provided in the positioning mechanism 130, and the limit assembly 133 includes an abutment plate 1331 and a buffer 1332. The abutment plate 1331 is an L-shaped plate, and the abutment plate 1331 is fixedly connected to the positioning assembly 131, that is, the long side end of the abutment plate 1331 is fixedly connected to the plate surface of the positioning base 1311 close to the crimping machine 110, and the long side of the abutment plate 1331 extends toward the side close to the moving assembly 132, and the short side of the abutment plate 1331 is used to abut against the buffer 1332; the buffer 1332 is provided on the mounting plate 1321 and is located on the moving path of the short side of the abutment plate 1331, and the abutment plate 1331 abuts against the buffer 1332 to limit the maximum moving distance of the moving assembly 132. When the moving assembly 132 drives the positioning assembly 131 to move along the second direction, it will drive the abutment plate 1331 to move until the abutment plate 1331 abuts against the buffer 1332 and gradually stops moving. At this time, the positioning assembly 131 is at the target abutment position. By setting the limit assembly 133, on the one hand, it can play a buffering and shock-absorbing role to extend the service life of the equipment, and on the other hand, it is convenient for the positioning assembly 131 to quickly move to the target abutment position to improve production efficiency.

[0054] Furthermore, since the hardware structures at both ends of the insulator products are generally different, in order to ensure the matching of the positioning mechanism 130 and the hardware to ensure the movable abutment effect, the present application sets two positioning mechanisms 130 of different sizes, that is, the first positioning plate 1312, the second positioning plate 1313 and the positioning roller 1314 are of different sizes to match the hardware of different structures for movable abutment. The two positioning mechanisms 130 are both arranged between the crimping machine 110 and the support platform 120, and the two positioning rollers 1314 are arranged opposite to each other. It can be understood that the two positioning components 131 are close to each other, and the two moving components 132 are far away from each other, so that the two moving components 132 can drive their respective positioning components 131 to move respectively to avoid mutual interference. It can be understood that the specific size and installation position of the two positioning mechanisms 130 can be adjusted according to the socket requirements, and no specific restrictions are made here.

[0055] Combination Figure 6 As shown, in one embodiment, in order to ensure that the hardware is accurately sleeved on the mandrel before the crimping operation is carried out to avoid the generation of waste, the crimping system 100 also includes a detection mechanism 160 for detecting whether the sleeve position of the hardware on the mandrel is accurate. The detection mechanism 160 includes a detection base 161, a fourth power assembly 162, a guide column 163 (the marks in the figure are only for illustration), a reference member 164, a spring member 165 and a sleeve detection assembly 166. The detection base 161 is arranged on the other side of the crimping machine 110; the fourth power assembly 162 is arranged on the detection base 161, and the power output end of the fourth power assembly 162 faces the crimping machine 110 and is connected to a first baffle 167, and the first baffle 167 is provided with a first through hole; the guide column 163 passes through the first through hole and is connected to the first baffle 167 through a fastener 168. The force component 163 drives the first baffle 167 to move and thus controls the guide column 163 to move in the first direction. The fastener 168 can be a connecting piece such as a sleeve; the reference member 164 is fixedly connected to the end of the guide column 163 close to the crimping machine 110 through the second baffle 169, and is used to abut against the hardware sleeved on the end of the core rod, that is, before or during the crimping of the hardware sleeved on the end of the core rod, the reference member 164 abuts against the hardware. The reference member 164 can be an elastomer, so that when abutting against the hardware, it can avoid damaging the surface of the hardware and affecting the product quality; the spring member 165 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the guide column 163, and the two ends of the spring member 165 abut against the fastener 168 and the second baffle 169 respectively; the sleeve detection component 166 is arranged on the detection base 161, and is used to detect whether the spring member 165 is deformed. On the one hand, before crimping, the detection mechanism 160 can detect whether the socket position of the hardware on the core rod is accurate, so as to avoid the hardware not being socketed in place and directly crimping to produce waste, waste materials and labor; on the other hand, when the hardware is crimped, the detection mechanism 160 can abut the end of the hardware that is not connected to the core rod, so as to avoid the hardware displacement causing the crimping position to shift, affecting product quality.

[0056] Among them, the socket detection component 166 includes a detection sensor 1661 and a detection plate 1662. The detection sensor 1661 can be a laser detection sensor, including a detection base arranged on the detection base 161, a transmitter and a receiver arranged on the detection base relatively along the second direction, the transmitter is used to generate a laser signal, and the receiver is used to receive the laser signal generated by the transmitter, and the two cooperate with each other to detect whether the detection plate 1662 is displaced; the detection plate 1662 is an L-shaped structure, including a first plate and a second plate connected vertically, the first plate is fixedly connected to the second baffle 169, and the second plate is partially inserted between the transmitter and the receiver. The bottom of the second plate is provided with a notch matching the size of the transmitter and the receiver for the laser signal to pass through.

[0057] When the detection mechanism 160 is running, the fourth power assembly 162 can first be used to drive the first baffle 167 to move, thereby driving the guide column 163 and the second baffle 169 connected thereto to move, so that the reference piece 164 on the second baffle 169 stays at the preset crimping position. In this way, when the sleeve position of the hardware on the mandrel is accurate, the mandrel support device 140 drives the mandrel with the hardware sleeved to move to the preset crimping position, and the end of the mandrel with the hardware sleeved can abut the reference piece 164 to wait for the subsequent crimping machine 110 to accurately crimp the mandrel and the hardware to ensure the crimping quality; when the sleeve position of the hardware on the mandrel is inaccurate, the mandrel support device 140 drives the mandrel with the hardware sleeved to move to the preset crimping position. Position, since the hardware is not properly socketed on the core rod, the end of the hardware away from the core rod will exceed the preset crimping position, thereby generating a certain thrust on the reference part 164, and then pushing the second baffle 169 to compress the spring part 165 to move, and the detection plate 1662 fixed on the second baffle 169 also moves accordingly, so that the notch on the detection plate 1662 moves to between the transmitter and the receiver, so that the laser signal emitted by the transmitter can pass through the notch on the detection plate 1662 and be recognized by the receiver and send out a warning signal, and the crimping machine 110 does not perform the crimping operation, thereby avoiding the crimping machine 110 directly performing the crimping operation at this position, which causes the crimping position of the hardware on the core rod to be inaccurate, resulting in scrap, and wasting materials and labor.

[0058] The present application also provides a crimping method for an insulator product, comprising the following steps:

[0059] Step S10 : placing the mandrel on the mandrel supporting device 140 , and placing the hardware on the hardware supporting device 150 .

[0060] Before this step, the operator can select a corresponding operating program in the control panel of the crimping system 100 according to the insulator product model and start it.

[0061] In this step, after starting the corresponding operation procedure, the mandrel is placed on the mandrel support seats 1412 of the mandrel support device 140. After the mandrel detection component 1413 detects the mandrel, a first confirmation signal will be generated and sent to the crimping system 100; the hardware is placed on the hardware support seat 1512 of the hardware support device 150. After the hardware detection component 1513 detects the hardware, a second confirmation signal will be generated and sent to the crimping system 100. After receiving the first confirmation signal and the second confirmation signal, the crimping system 100 generates a confirmation signal to confirm that the preparation work has been completed and the socketing operation process can be entered. It can be understood that the above-mentioned action of placing the mandrel or hardware can be achieved by manual operation of the operator or automatic operation of the robot arm, and no specific limitation is made here. In other embodiments, after completing the preparation of the mandrel and the hardware, the operator can confirm in the control panel of the crimping system and generate a confirmation signal to notify the crimping system that the preparation work has been completed and the socketing operation process can be entered.

[0062] Step S20: driving at least one of the mandrel support device 140 and the hardware support device 150 to move to a preset sleeve position, and utilizing the positioning mechanism 130 to movably abut the hardware, so that the hardware is sleeved on the end of the mandrel.

[0063] Among them, the preset socket position can be a pre-set approximate position. For example, the preset socket position can be set on the same central axis of the mandrel and the hardware, and any position on the central axis can be set as the preset socket position; for example, the preset socket position can also be set to a fixed position, as long as the mandrel and the hardware are coaxial for easy socketing, and no specific limitation is made here.

[0064] In this step, when the crimping system 100 receives the confirmation signal, it controls the hardware support device 150 to move the hardware to the preset socket position, drives the mandrel support device 140 to push the mandrel in the direction of the hardware, and uses the positioning mechanism 130 to flexibly abut the hardware until the hardware is socketed on the end of the mandrel. In other embodiments, when the crimping system receives the confirmation signal, it can control the mandrel support device to move the mandrel to the preset socket position, drive the hardware support device to push the hardware in the direction of the mandrel, or control the mandrel support device and the hardware support device to move to the preset socket position at the same time. As long as the corresponding control positioning mechanism can flexibly abut the hardware and socket the hardware on the end of the mandrel, no specific limitation is made here.

[0065] The process of utilizing the positioning mechanism 130 to movably abut against the hardware specifically includes steps S201 to S203 .

[0066] Step S201 : controlling the moving assembly 132 to drive the positioning assembly 131 to move, so that the positioning assembly 131 abuts against the end of the hardware.

[0067] In this step, the third power component 1323 of the control moving component 132 drives the positioning component 131 to move to the target abutment position, that is, drives the positioning component 131 to move along the second direction to the first direction on the third guide rail 1322, until the abutment plate 1331 of the limit component 133 abuts the buffer 1332 and stops moving, so that the positioning component 131 is located at the target abutment position. At this time, the hardware support seat 1512 is partially accommodated in the second cavity 13112 of the positioning base 1311, and the second positioning plate 1313 abuts the end of the hardware.

[0068] Step S202: Control the mandrel supporting device 140 to drive the mandrel to move toward the fitting, so that the fitting is partially sleeved on the end of the mandrel.

[0069] In this step, the mandrel moving mechanism 142 is controlled to move along the first direction to push the mandrel toward the hardware. Under the resistance of the accommodating cavity of the hardware support seat 1512, the end of the mandrel is initially sleeved into the cavity of the hardware.

[0070] Step S203: Control the mandrel supporting device 140 to drive the mandrel to continue to move toward the hardware, so that the hardware is completely sleeved on the end of the mandrel.

[0071] In this step, the mandrel moving mechanism 142 is controlled to continue moving the mandrel in the first direction, so that the hardware moves along the inclined upper plate surface of the second positioning plate 1313 under the action of thrust to abut the first positioning plate 1312 and the positioning roller 1314. Since this abutment method has a certain degree of mobility, the hardware will twist in the first cavity 13111. Under the continuous push of the mandrel moving mechanism 142, the mandrel continues to twist and move into the cavity of the hardware until the hardware is completely sleeved on the end of the mandrel, completing the sleeve operation.

[0072] In order to facilitate the subsequent crimping operation, the hardware support device 150 and the positioning mechanism 130 need to withdraw from the range where the mandrel moves toward the crimping machine 110. Therefore, after step S203 and before step S30, steps S204 to S205 are also included.

[0073] S204 : Control the hardware moving mechanism 152 to drive the hardware supporting mechanism 151 to withdraw from the range where the mandrel moves toward the crimping machine 110 .

[0074] In this step, the second power assembly 1522 of the hardware moving mechanism 152 is controlled to drive the hardware supporting mechanism 151 to move downward along the second guide rail 1521 and exit the range where the mandrel moves toward the crimping machine 110 .

[0075] S205: Control the moving assembly 132 to drive the positioning assembly 131 to return to the original position. In this step, the third power assembly 1323 is controlled to drive the positioning assembly 131 to return to the original position along the second direction on the third guide rail 1322, so as to reserve space for the mandrel with the hardware to be subsequently moved to the crimping machine 110 for crimping. It can be understood that the original position here is the initial position of the positioning assembly 131 before it moves to the preset socket position, and no specific limitation is made here as long as the initial position does not affect the movement of the mandrel to the crimping machine 110.

[0076] Step S30: crimping the hardware sleeved on the end of the mandrel using the crimping machine 110 .

[0077] In this step, the crimping operation process specifically includes step S301 to step S303.

[0078] Step S301: Control the lifting mechanism 123 to drive the mandrel with the hardware sleeved thereon to move to a target height.

[0079] Before this step, step S304 is also included: adjusting the height of the limiter 1237 to the target height, that is, adjusting the height of the limit nut so that the bottom of the limit nut is at the target height to limit the maximum moving height of the first lifting plate 1233.

[0080] In this step, the lifting power assembly 1235 that controls the lifting mechanism 123 drives the second lifting plate 1234 to move in the vertical direction, driving the first lifting plate 1233 to move on the guide assembly 1232 until the first lifting plate 1233 abuts against the bottom of the limit nut, reaches the maximum moving height and stops moving. At this time, the core rod with the hardware installed moves to the target height.

[0081] Step S302: Use the mandrel support device 140 to drive the mandrel with the hardware to move to the preset crimping position, that is, control the mandrel moving mechanism 142 to move the mandrel to the crimping machine 110, so that the hardware on the mandrel is located at the preset crimping position in the crimping machine 110, waiting for subsequent crimping operations.

[0082] Step S303: The crimping machine 110 performs a crimping operation to crimp the hardware onto the end of the core rod.

[0083] In order to ensure the crimping quality, after step S301 and before step S302, step S50 is further included: using the detection mechanism 160 to detect whether the socketing position of the hardware on the core rod is accurate. The detection steps specifically include S501 to S502.

[0084] Step S501: controlling the fourth power assembly 162 to drive the reference member 164 to move to a preset crimping position.

[0085] In this step, the fourth power assembly 162 is controlled to drive the first baffle 167 to move, thereby driving the guide pillar 163 and the second baffle 169 connected thereto to move, so that the reference member 164 on the second baffle 169 stays at a preset crimping position.

[0086] Step S502: The socket detection assembly 166 detects whether the spring member 165 is deformed.

[0087] In this step, after the reference member 164 moves to the preset crimping position, the abutment state between the reference member 164 and the end of the hardware can be determined by the deformation state of the spring member 165, thereby detecting whether the sleeve position of the hardware on the core rod is accurate. When the socketing position of the hardware on the core rod is accurate, the end of the hardware can just abut the reference piece 164 at the preset crimping position. At this time, the spring 165 will not be deformed, and the detection plate 1662 fixed on the second baffle 169 will not be displaced. The socketing detection component 166 will not generate a warning signal, and the crimping machine 110 can perform the crimping operation; when the socketing position of the hardware on the core rod is inaccurate, since the hardware is not socketed in place on the core rod, the end of the hardware away from the core rod will exceed the preset crimping position, thereby generating a certain thrust on the reference piece 164, pushing the second baffle 169 to compress the spring piece 165 to deform, and the detection plate 1662 fixed on the second baffle 169 also displaces accordingly, and the notch on the detection plate 1662 moves between the transmitter and the receiver. The laser signal emitted by the transmitter passes through the notch on the detection plate 1662 and is recognized by the receiver and sends a warning signal. After receiving the warning signal, the crimping machine 110 does not perform the crimping operation.

[0088] The insulator product usually includes a core rod and two hardware fittings. The above-mentioned steps S10 to S30 can complete the sleeve connection and crimping process of one of the hardware fittings and the core rod. Before the sleeve connection and crimping operation of the other hardware fitting and the core rod is performed, the positions of the two ends of the core rod need to be adjusted. Therefore, the crimping method also includes step S40 after step S30: using the rotating mechanism 122 to adjust the positions of the two ends of the core rod, repeating steps S20 to S30, and forming an insulator product.

[0089] The process of rotating the mandrel specifically includes step S401 and step S402.

[0090] Step S401: Use the zero position detection component to detect whether the working position of the first support plate 121 is accurate. If the working position is accurate, execute step S402; if the working position is inaccurate, adjust the position of the first support plate 121 by rotating the rotating mechanism 122, so that the core rod, the hardware and the preset crimping position on the first support plate 121 are on the same straight line, and execute step S402 after the zero position detection component detects that the working position of the first support plate 121 is accurate.

[0091] Step S402 : controlling the rotating power assembly 1222 to drive the turntable 12212 to rotate 180°, thereby changing the positions of the two ends of the core rod on the first support plate 121 .

[0092] After the positions of the two ends of the core rod are reversed, the above steps S20 to S30 are repeated, another hardware is sleeved on the other end of the core rod, and a crimping operation is performed using a crimping machine 110 to form an insulator product.

[0093] The beneficial effects of the present application are as follows: different from the prior art, the crimping system of the present application includes a crimping machine, a supporting platform, and a positioning mechanism. The positioning mechanism can movably abut the hardware to be socketed through the positioning component, and can simulate the twisting action during manual socketing. At the same time, the mandrel moving mechanism drives the mandrel to move, so that the torsion of the hardware and the movement of the mandrel cooperate with each other, and the mandrel can be socketed into the slender inner cavity of the hardware, thereby ensuring the socketing quality and thus ensuring the product quality; and compared with the manual method, it can improve production efficiency.

[0094] At the same time, the crimping system of the present application also includes a detection mechanism. On the one hand, it can detect whether the socket position of the hardware on the core rod is accurate before the hardware is crimped, so as to avoid the hardware not being socketed in place and directly crimping to produce waste, waste materials and labor; on the other hand, it can abut the end of the hardware that is not connected to the core rod when the hardware is crimped, so as to avoid the displacement of the hardware and cause the crimping position to shift, affecting product quality.

[0095] In addition, after the mandrel is placed on the mandrel support device and the hardware is placed on the hardware support device, the crimping system of the present application will automatically operate, control the mandrel and the hardware to complete the twisting socketing at the preset socketing position, and control them to move to the preset crimping position, and use the crimping machine to crimp the hardware to the end of the mandrel. Compared with the manual method, the crimping efficiency and product quality can be improved.

[0096] The technical content and technical features of the present application have been disclosed above. However, it is understood that, under the creative concept of the present application, those skilled in the art can make various changes and improvements to the above structures and materials, including combinations of technical features disclosed or claimed separately herein, and obviously including other combinations of these features. These variations and / or combinations all fall within the technical field involved in the present application and fall within the protection scope of the claims of the present application.
