[0057] Referring to FIG. 1 , FIG. 1 shows a schematic diagram of the structure of a sleeve welding ring device in an embodiment of the present application. The sleeve welding ring device provided in an embodiment of the present application includes a clamping device 100, a blanking device 200 and a sleeve ring device 300. The clamping device 100 includes a clamping space 110 for clamping a target workpiece. The target workpiece located in the clamping space 110 can be fixed by the clamping device 100 to ensure the accuracy of sleeve welding rings on the target workpiece.

[0058] The blanking device 200 is arranged at one side of the clamping device 100, and includes a blanking channel 24 and a bearing groove. After the solder ring enters the blanking channel 24, it moves in a fixed direction under the action of the blanking channel 24, so that the solder ring is limited by the blanking channel 24. The bearing groove is located at the discharge end of the blanking channel 24. After leaving the blanking channel 24, the solder ring in the blanking channel 24 will fall into the bearing groove. At least part of the bearing groove is arranged opposite to the clamping space 110.

[0059] Specifically, when the blanking structure 210 is in use, the extension direction of the blanking channel 24 and the axial direction of the feed port 22 are parallel to the direction of gravity, so that the welding ring can enter the feed port 22 from the discharge port 11 under the action of gravity, and finally move along the blanking channel 24 under the action of gravity, and finally fall into the supporting groove from the discharge end of the blanking channel 24.

[0060] The collar device 300 is arranged on a side of the blanking device 200 away from the clamping device 100. The collar device 300 is movably arranged in a direction close to or away from the blanking device 200. At least a portion of the collar device 300 extends into the load-bearing groove and pushes the material in the load-bearing groove onto the target workpiece.

[0061] Taking the example of putting a welding ring on a copper tube, the above-mentioned welding ring equipment can make the entire welding ring putting process unnecessary for human intervention. The welding ring is limited and guided by the blanking channel 24, so that the welding ring falls directly on the bearing groove. After that, the welding ring is directly pushed onto the copper tube through the ring device 300. It is easy to operate and has high positioning accuracy, which improves the efficiency of putting the welding ring on the copper tube, thereby also improving the degree of automation in the production of air conditioners.

[0062] Further, referring to Figures 1, 2, 3 and 4, the sleeve welding ring equipment also includes a vibration plate 400, and the blanking structure 210 includes a discharge piece 10 and a blanking piece 20. One end of the discharge piece 10 is connected to the vibration plate 400, and the other end is connected to the blanking piece 20. A blanking channel 24 is arranged in the blanking piece 20. A certain number of welding rings are stored in the vibration plate 400. When the vibration plate starts to vibrate, the welding ring enters the discharge piece 10 under the action of vibration, and moves toward the blanking piece 20 under the guidance of the discharge piece 10, and finally enters the blanking channel 24, and under the guidance of the blanking channel 24, falls into the bearing groove, so as to be used for the sleeve ring device 300 to be pushed to the target workpiece.

[0063] The discharge piece 10 has a conveying channel 12 and a discharge port 11. One end of the discharge piece 10 away from the discharge port 11 is connected to the vibration plate 400. The welding ring in the vibration plate 400 can enter the conveying channel 12 under the vibration of the vibration plate 400. Under the action of the conveying channel 12, the welding ring moves toward the discharge port 11, and finally leaves the discharge piece 10 from the discharge port 11. The blanking piece 20 has a feed port 22, which is connected to the blanking channel 24. The welding ring can enter the feed port 22 through the discharge port 11, so that the welding ring output from the discharge port 11 can enter the blanking channel 24.

[0064] In actual use, due to the vibration of the sleeve welding ring equipment during operation, or the influence of other external forces, the positions of the outlet 11 and the feed port 22 may not correspond, which will cause the welding ring to fail to fall from the outlet 11 to the feed port 22 normally, but to accumulate at the outlet 11 or the feed port 22, resulting in the welding ring being unable to be transported normally and causing welding ring blockage.

[0065] To this end, the position of one of the feed port 22 and the discharge port 11 relative to the other is adjustable, and during the adjustment process, the feed port 22 can be aligned with the discharge port 11. After the feed port 22 and the discharge port 11 are aligned, the welding ring can normally enter the feed port 22 from the discharge port 11, ensuring the normal transportation of the welding ring. Even if the positions of the discharge port 11 and the feed port 22 do not correspond, the relative positions of the feed port 22 and the discharge port 11 can be adjusted so that the two remain aligned, thereby avoiding the welding ring from being blocked and ensuring the normal operation of the welding ring.

[0066] In the embodiment of the present application, when the feed port 22 is aligned with the discharge port 11, the inner wall of the feed port 22 smoothly transitions with the inner wall of the discharge port 11. Smooth transition means that no step is generated from the inner wall of the feed port 22 to the inner wall of the discharge port 11, so that when the welding ring enters the discharge port 11 from the feed port 22, the movement trajectory of the welding ring will not deviate due to collision with the step, and finally cause the welding ring to be blocked.

[0067] In actual use, the feed port 22 has the same shape and size as the discharge port 11. Preferably, the feed port 22 and the discharge port 11 are both square in shape. When the feed port 22 is aligned with the discharge port 11, the end face of the discharge piece 10 provided with the discharge port 11 abuts against the end face of the blanking piece 20 provided with the feed port 22. The inner wall of the feed port 22 and the inner wall of the discharge port 11 can be directly connected together without generating steps.

[0068] In some embodiments of the present application, referring to FIG. 2, FIG. 3, FIG. 4 and FIG. 5, the material discharge structure 210 further includes an adjustment component 30, which is mounted on the blanking member 20, and the adjustment component 30 is used to adjust the position of the discharge member 10 relative to the blanking member 20, so that the feed port 22 and the discharge port 11 are aligned with each other. Specifically, the overall shape of the discharge member 10 is a long strip, one end of the long strip discharge member 10 is connected to the vibration plate 400, and the other end has a discharge port 11, and the end of the long strip discharge member 10 with the discharge port 11 is a free end, which is easily affected by external vibration and causes deviation from the discharge port 11 and the feed port 22. The position of the end of the discharge member 10 with the discharge port 11 relative to the blanking member 20 can be adjusted instantly by the adjustment component 30, thereby ensuring that the discharge port 11 can always be aligned with the feed port 22, avoiding the blockage of the welding ring, and ensuring the normal transportation of the welding ring.

[0069] In some embodiments, the adjustment assembly 30 is formed with an adjustment hole 33 that is set through, one end of the adjustment hole 33 is connected to the feed port 22, and one end of the discharge member 10 provided with the discharge port 11 is inserted into the other end of the adjustment hole 33. The position of the adjustment hole 33 relative to the feed port 22 is adjustable, so that the position of the discharge member 10 inserted into the adjustment hole 33 relative to the feed port 22 is adjustable, and finally the discharge port 11 on the discharge member 10 is aligned with the feed port 22.

[0070] Furthermore, the size of the aperture of the adjustment hole 33 can also be adjusted. When installing the discharge piece 10, the aperture of the adjustment hole 33 can be enlarged first, so that the discharge piece 10 can be easily inserted into the adjustment hole 33. After the discharge piece 10 is inserted into the adjustment hole 33, the aperture of the adjustment hole 33 is gradually reduced, so that the position of the discharge piece 10 is adjusted through the inner wall of the adjustment hole 33, until the inner diameter of the adjustment hole 33 is adjusted to be close to the size of the discharge piece, the outer wall of the discharge piece 10 will fit with the inner wall of the adjustment hole 33, so that the discharge port 11 is parallel and aligned with the feed port 22.

[0071] Specifically in some embodiments, referring to FIG. 6 and FIG. 7 , the adjustment assembly 30 includes a first adjustment member 31 and a second adjustment member 32. The first adjustment member 31 is movably mounted on the blanking member 20 along the first direction X, and the second adjustment member 32 is movably mounted on the first adjustment member 31 along the second direction Y. The second adjustment member 32 and the first adjustment member 31 are surrounded by an adjustment hole 33 that passes through along the third direction Z. The first direction X, the second direction Y and the third direction Z intersect each other and are not coplanar. One end of the adjustment hole 33 is connected to the feed port 22, and one end of the discharge member 10 provided with the discharge port 11 is inserted into the other end of the adjustment hole 33. During the movement of the first adjustment member 31 and the second adjustment member 32, the inner wall of the adjustment hole 33 can abut against the discharge member 10, and the discharge member 10 is driven to move through the first adjustment member 31 or the second adjustment member 32.

[0072] In this way, when the first adjusting member 31 moves along the first direction X relative to the blanking member 20, at least one of the first adjusting member 31 and the second adjusting member 32 can abut against the discharge member 10 and drive the discharge member 10 to move in the first direction X relative to the blanking member 20, thereby adjusting the position of the discharge port 11 relative to the feed port 22 in the first direction X.

[0073] When the second adjusting member 32 moves relative to the blanking member 20 in the second direction Y, the aperture size of the adjusting hole 33 can increase or decrease the movement of the second adjusting member 32. During the movement, the second adjusting member 32 can abut against the discharge member 10 and drive the discharge member 10 to move relative to the blanking member 20 in the second direction Y, thereby adjusting the position of the discharge port 11 relative to the feed port 22 in the third direction Z, and also adjusting the state of the discharge member 10 so that the discharge port 11 can remain parallel to the feed port 22. Finally, through the cooperation between the first adjusting member 31 and the second adjusting member 32, the discharge port 11 can be aligned with the feed port 22.

[0074] Specifically, the first adjusting member 31 is provided with a first waist-shaped hole 34 extending longitudinally along the first direction X, the blanking member 20 is provided with a first fixing hole 23, and the adjusting assembly 30 further includes a first fixing member, which is passed through the first waist-shaped hole 34 and the first fixing hole 23 and is used to fix the first adjusting member on the blanking member 20. By adjusting the position of the first adjusting member relative to the first waist-shaped hole 34, the relative position of the first adjusting member relative to the blanking member 20 in the first direction X can be adjusted, thereby adjusting the relative position of the discharge member 10 relative to the blanking member 20 in the first direction X.

[0075] Optionally, the first fixing hole 23 is a threaded hole, the first fixing piece is passed through the first waist-shaped hole 34 and is threadedly connected to the first fixing hole 23, and in some other embodiments, the first fixing piece can also be a bolt and a nut, and the first fixing hole 23 is a through hole.

[0076] Furthermore, the first adjusting member 31 is provided with a first threaded hole 36 extending longitudinally along the first direction X, and the second adjusting member 33 is provided with a first avoidance hole 37 penetrating along the second direction Y. The adjusting assembly 30 further includes a second fixing member 38, which is penetrated through the first avoidance hole 37 and threadedly connected with the first threaded hole 36. Thus, when the second fixing member 38 rotates relative to the first threaded hole 36, the second fixing member 38 drives the second adjusting member to move along the second direction Y, and then drives the blanking member 20 to move in the second direction Y, thereby adjusting the relative position of the discharge member 10 relative to the blanking member 20 in the second direction Y.

[0077] In actual use, after inserting one end of the discharge member 10 provided with the discharge port 11 into the adjustment hole 33 formed by the first adjustment member 31 and the second adjustment member 32, the relative position of the discharge port 11 with respect to the feed port 22 in the first direction X is adjusted by the first fixing member on the first adjustment member 31. Afterwards, by rotating the second fixing member 38, the second adjusting member 32 can squeeze the discharge member 10, so that the discharge member 10 gradually approaches the first fixing member, and in this process, the position of the discharge port 11 with respect to the feed port 22 in the second direction Y is adjusted, and finally the feed port 22 is aligned with the discharge port 11.

[0078] Among them, when the feed port 22 is aligned with the discharge port 11, the two sides of the blanking piece 20 in the first direction X and the two sides in the second direction Y are in contact with the inner wall of the adjustment hole 33, that is, at this time, the four sides of the blanking piece 20 at one end of which the discharge port 11 is provided are fixed by the first adjusting piece 31 and the second adjusting piece 32, so as to avoid the position of the blanking piece 20 from shifting and causing the discharge port 11 to be misaligned with the feed port 22, and further avoid the blockage of the welding ring.

[0079] In some embodiments of the present application, the size of the clamping space 110 is adjustable, so that the size of the clamping space 110 can be adjusted according to target workpieces of different sizes, thereby adapting to the clamping of different target workpieces. Specifically, referring to Figures 8 and 9, the clamping device 100 includes two clamping modules 120 arranged relatively along the clamping direction, each clamping module 120 includes a movable member 121 and a clamping member 122, the two movable members 121 are arranged at intervals along the clamping direction, and can be controlled to approach or move away from each other in the clamping direction, and a clamping space 110 is formed between the two clamping members 122, so that the clamping member 122 is driven to move by the movable member 121, and finally the target workpiece is clamped by the two clamping members 122.

[0080] Among them, the position of each clamping member 122 relative to the movable member 121 in the clamping direction is adjustable, and by adjusting the position of each clamping member 122 relative to the movable member 121 in the clamping direction, the size of the clamping space 110 formed between the two clamping members 122 can be adjusted. Afterwards, when the movable member 121 drives the corresponding clamping member 122 to move, the two clamping members 122 can clamp the target workpiece.

[0081] Specifically, the clamping module 120 includes a third fastener 123, a second waist-shaped hole 124 extending longitudinally along the clamping direction is provided on the clamping member 122, a second fixing hole is provided on the movable member 121, and the third fastener 123 is passed through the second waist-shaped hole 124 and the second fixing hole, and fixes the clamping member 122 to the movable member 121. In this way, by adjusting the position of the third fastener 123 relative to the second waist-shaped hole 124, the position of the clamping member 122 relative to the movable member 121 in the clamping direction can be adjusted. Optionally, the second fixing hole is a threaded hole, and the third fastener 123 passes through the second waist-shaped hole 124 and is threadedly connected to the second fixing hole.

[0082] Specifically in one embodiment, at least one clamping module 120 includes a stopper 130, a portion of which is mounted on the movable member 121, and another portion of which is connected to a side of the clamping member 122 in the clamping direction away from the clamping space 110. The stopper 130 limits the position of the clamping member 122 in the clamping direction to ensure the accuracy of the position of the clamping member 122, thereby avoiding the problem that the clamping member 122 fails to clamp the target workpiece tightly, resulting in the scrapping of the target workpiece during the ring welding process.

[0083] Furthermore, the clamping module 120 further includes a fourth fastener, the clamping member 122 is provided with a second threaded hole on a side away from the clamping space 110 in the clamping direction, the limiting member 130 is provided with a second avoidance hole 133, and the fourth fastener is passed through the second avoidance hole 133 and is threadedly connected with the second threaded hole. The limiting member 130 and the clamping member 122 are fixed to each other by the fourth fastener, so as to prevent the clamping member 122 from moving by itself due to external force after the clamping member 122 is adjusted to a size relative to the clamping space 110 by the third fastener 123 and the second waist-shaped hole 124, so as to prevent the clamping member 122 from being unable to clamp the target workpiece.

[0084] The above-mentioned feeding structure has at least the following advantages:

[0085] The position of one of the feed port 22 and the discharge port 11 relative to the other is adjustable, and during the adjustment process, the feed port 22 can be aligned with the discharge port 11. After the feed port 22 and the discharge port 11 are aligned, the welding ring can normally enter the feed port 22 from the discharge port 11, ensuring the normal transportation of the welding ring. Even if the position of the discharge port 11 and the feed port 22 do not correspond, the relative position of the feed port 22 and the discharge port 11 can be adjusted so that the two can remain aligned, thereby avoiding the welding ring from being blocked and ensuring the normal operation of the welding ring.

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.
