Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of rearview mirror accessory processing, in particular to an automatic welding machine for rearview mirror metal parts. Background Art

[0002] A ball head is usually welded on the mirror rod of the rearview mirror. The ball head is used to connect the mirror housing with a ball joint, so that the angle of the mirror can be flexibly adjusted during use to meet different viewing angles, and the mirror housing can withstand external forces without loosening or damage during use, while ensuring the stability and reliability of the vehicle during driving. Therefore, the welding quality of the mirror rod and the ball head directly affects the performance and service life of the entire product.

[0003] In the prior art, the welding of the mirror rod and the ball head of the rearview mirror is usually carried out by manually placing the mirror rod and the ball head on the corresponding mold in sequence, and then removing the ball head after the welding of the mirror rod and the mirror rod is completed; however, in this process, the temperature at the welding point between the mirror rod and the ball head is high, and splashes will be generated, which may easily cause safety hazards during the manual loading and unloading operations; and if the newly welded ball head is hit with a large force, it may easily cause the ball head to fall off, affecting the quality of the mirror rod welding. Summary of the invention

The workbench is provided with a mold matching with the ball head and a positioning fixture matching with the mirror rod. The positioning fixture comprises an upper tooling, a lower tooling and a third driving member. The first feeding mechanism is used to convey the ball head to the mold, and the second feeding mechanism is used to convey the mirror rod to the lower tooling. The upper tooling is slidably connected to the workbench, and the lower tooling is rotatably connected to the workbench. The third driving member is used to drive the upper tooling to move up and down. When the upper tooling moves toward the side of the lower tooling, the lower tooling rotates toward the side of the upper tooling to cooperate with the upper tooling. When the upper tooling moves toward the side away from the lower tooling, the lower tooling rotates toward the side of the unloading mechanism and conveys the welded metal parts to the unloading mechanism.

[0006] By adopting the above technical scheme, during the process of the third driving member driving the upper tooling to move toward the lower tooling, the first feeding mechanism and the second feeding mechanism respectively transport the ball head and the mirror rod to the mold and the lower tooling, and when the upper tooling and the lower tooling cooperate, the welding assembly welds the ball head and the mirror rod; after the welding is completed, the third driving member drives the lower tooling to slide toward the side away from the upper tooling, and the lower tooling rotates toward the side of the unloading mechanism, so that the welded metal parts on the mold core of the lower tooling roll along the lower tooling toward the unloading mechanism to the unloading mechanism for transportation; so as to realize the automatic loading of the mirror rod and the ball head and the automatic unloading of the metal parts after welding; so as to improve the automation and safety of the welding process and reduce the possibility of safety hazards; at the same time, reduce the possibility of the ball head being knocked off by a strong impact after welding, so as to improve the production quality of metal parts.

When the upper tooling slides toward one side of the lower tooling, the convex block cooperates with the concave block. When the upper tooling slides toward the side away from the lower tooling, the convex part of the convex block always faces the groove.

[0008] By adopting the above technical scheme, the arrangement of the concave block and the convex block plays a role in positioning and limiting the upper and lower tooling after they are matched, reducing the possibility of deviation when the upper and lower tooling are matched; and when the upper tooling slides toward one side of the lower tooling, the concave block and the convex block guide the rotation of the lower tooling, reducing the possibility of the lower tooling rotating to the other side; at the same time, the concave block is arranged on the lower tooling, which makes it easier for the lower tooling to rotate by its weight when the upper tooling slides toward one side of the lower tooling.

[0009] Preferably, the unloading mechanism includes a conveyor belt, a plurality of shock-absorbing plates and a driving assembly. A frame is provided on one side of the workbench. The conveyor belt is transmission-connected to the frame. The plurality of shock-absorbing plates are evenly distributed along the outer surface of the conveyor belt. The driving assembly is used to drive the transmission of the conveyor belt. When the upper tooling moves toward the side away from the lower tooling, the lower tooling rotates toward the side of the conveyor belt.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, when the lower tooling rotates toward one side of the conveyor belt, the metal parts on the lower tooling roll down onto the conveyor belt along the lower tooling, and the transmission of the conveyor belt is driven by the driving member. By arranging multiple shock-absorbing plates on the conveyor belt, the metal parts roll down to between the two shock-absorbing plates for transmission, thereby reducing the possibility of collision between metal parts or collision between two metal parts, resulting in the falling off of the ball head or damage to the surface, so as to improve the production quality of metal parts, and keep the metal parts in a uniform direction for transmission, which is convenient for subsequent processing and handling, and at the same time, it is convenient to observe the metal parts on the conveyor belt, reducing the possibility of defective or substandard products flowing into subsequent processing.

[0012] By adopting the above technical scheme, the lower tooling moves the extension rod during the rotation process, and the swing rod drives the half gear to rotate, and the engagement between the half gear and the pinion causes the pinion and the gear roller coaxial with the pinion to rotate, thereby causing the conveyor belt meshing with the gear roller to be transmitted; and by providing a one-way bearing, when the lower tooling rotates toward one side of the conveyor belt, the one-way bearing drives the gear roller to rotate, and when the lower tooling rotates toward one side of the upper tooling, the one-way bearing does not drive the gear to rotate, thereby allowing the conveyor belt to be transmitted toward one side; and the transmission is carried out by linking the conveyor belt with the rotation of the lower tooling, so that the metal parts on the lower tooling can fall between two different shock-absorbing plates respectively, thereby reducing the possibility of collision between the two metal parts.

[0013] Preferably, the extension rod is detachably connected to a side of the lower tooling close to the second feeding mechanism, and a guide opening is provided on the extension rod, and the guide opening is directly opposite to the core portion of the lower tooling.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the setting of the guide port guides the second feeding mechanism to transport the mirror rod to the mold core, thereby reducing the possibility that the mirror rod cannot enter the lower tooling mold core due to the swing of the lower tooling. At the same time, the extension rod is detachably connected to the lower tooling, which is convenient for replacing the extension rod and reduces the possibility of excessive wear of the extension rod.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the mirror rod is placed in the barrel, and the mirror rod rolls along the feeding channel to the feeding trough of the abutment table, and is pushed by the piston rod of the second cylinder to push the mirror rod in the feeding trough toward the side of the lower tooling into the mold core of the lower tooling, and during the welding process, it still abuts on the mirror rod to limit the axial position of the mirror rod and block one side of the opening of the feeding channel at the same time; when the piston rod of the second cylinder is reset, the next mirror rod in the feeding channel rolls into the feeding trough, and the automatic loading of the mirror rod is completed through the piston movement of the piston rod of the second cylinder.

[0017] Preferably, the first feeding mechanism includes a vibrating plate, a sliding seat, a hollow tube, a hose and a first driving member, the sliding seat is slidably connected to the workbench, the backing mold is arranged on the sliding seat, the vibrating plate is arranged on the workbench, the hollow tube is fixedly connected to the backing mold, the two ends of the hose in the axial direction are respectively fixedly connected to the hollow tube and the vibrating plate, and the two ends of the hose are respectively connected to the discharge end of the hollow tube and the vibrating plate, and the first driving member is used to drive the sliding of the sliding seat. During the welding process, the first driving member drives the sliding seat to slide toward the side of the lower tooling. When the welding is completed, the first driving member drives the sliding seat to slide toward the side away from the lower tooling.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the ball head is placed in the vibration plate, and the ball head is transported to the hose in an orderly manner through the vibration of the vibration plate, and falls on the mold along the hollow tube; when welding, the first driving member drives the sliding seat to slide toward the side of the lower tooling, so that the ball head on the mold abuts against the mirror rod; when welding is completed, the first driving member drives the sliding seat to slide toward the side away from the lower tooling, so that the welded ball head is separated from the mold, and the next ball head falls on the mold; the provision of the hose reduces the possibility of interference with the sliding seat during sliding, and when the sliding seat slides, the hose and the ball head in the hollow tube move due to inertia, reducing the possibility of the ball head in the hose or the hollow tube getting stuck, and increasing the continuity of the ball head loading.

[0019] Preferably, the welding assembly comprises a plurality of welding heads and a power source, the plurality of welding heads are respectively fixedly connected to the master mold, the power source is fixedly connected to the workbench, and the power source is electrically connected to the plurality of welding heads.

[0020] By adopting the above technical scheme, the power supply outputs suitable current and voltage to the welding joint to generate high temperature, so that the part where the ball head and the mirror rod are in contact is partially melted. When the liquid metal cools and solidifies, the ball head and the mirror rod are welded to form a metal part. The welding head is set at the mold to facilitate positioning of the welding position. There is a possibility that the welding position of the ball head and the mirror rod deviates, which may affect the welding quality of the metal part.

[0021] Preferably, a contact button is provided on the workbench, and the contact button is located on the moving path of the lower tooling. A controller is provided on the workbench, and the controller is used to receive the signal of the contact button and control the power supply to energize the welding head. When the lower tooling cooperates with the upper tooling, the lower tooling abuts against the contact button.

[0022] By adopting the above technical scheme, when the lower tooling cooperates with the upper tooling, the lower tooling and the upper tooling clamp and limit the mirror rod and the ball head abuts against the mirror rod. At this time, the lower tooling abuts against the contact button, so that the power supply energizes the welding joint for welding, so as to improve the degree of automation of the welding process, and weld after the mirror rod and the ball head are in place, reducing the possibility of premature welding or delayed welding of the welding head affecting the welding quality of the metal parts; and the contact button is provided with a reset spring, which can reduce the possibility of the lower tooling not rotating.

[0023] The technical effects of the present invention are mainly reflected in the following aspects: 1. The present invention sets a positioning fixture. During the process in which the third driving member drives the upper tooling to move toward the lower tooling, the first feeding mechanism and the second feeding mechanism respectively convey the ball head and the mirror rod to the mold and the lower tooling. When the upper tooling and the lower tooling cooperate, the welding assembly welds the ball head and the mirror rod.

This improves the automation and safety of the welding process and reduces the possibility of potential safety hazards. At the same time, it reduces the possibility of the ball head being knocked off by a strong force after welding, so as to improve the production quality of metal parts. 2. The present invention provides a material discharge mechanism. When the lower tooling rotates toward one side of the conveyor belt, the metal parts on the lower tooling roll down onto the conveyor belt along the lower tooling. The conveyor belt is driven by a driving member. A plurality of damping plates are provided on the conveyor belt to make the metal parts roll down between two damping plates for transmission. This reduces the possibility of metal parts hitting each other or two metal parts colliding with each other, resulting in the ball head falling off or surface damage. This improves the production quality of metal parts. The metal parts are kept in a uniform direction for transmission, which is convenient for subsequent processing and handling. At the same time, it is convenient to observe the metal parts on the conveyor belt, reducing the possibility of defective or substandard products flowing into subsequent processing. 3. The present invention sets a driving part, so that the lower tooling moves the extension rod during the rotation process, and the swing rod drives the half gear to rotate, and the engagement between the half gear and the pinion makes the pinion and the gear roller coaxial with the pinion rotate, so that the conveyor belt meshing with the gear roller is transmitted; and by setting a one-way bearing, when the lower tooling rotates toward one side of the conveyor belt, the one-way bearing drives the gear roller to rotate, and when the lower tooling rotates toward one side of the upper tooling, the one-way bearing does not drive the gear to rotate, so that the conveyor belt can be transmitted to one side; and the lower tooling is driven by the rotation of the conveyor belt, so that the metal parts on the lower tooling can fall between two different damping plates respectively, thereby reducing the possibility of collision between the two metal parts.

When the upper tooling 61 moves toward the lower tooling 62 , the lower tooling 62 rotates toward the upper tooling 61 to cooperate with the upper tooling 61 . When the upper tooling 61 moves away from the lower tooling 62 , the lower tooling 62 rotates toward the unloading mechanism 4 and transports the welded metal parts to the unloading mechanism 4 .

A convex block 611 that can cooperate with the concave block 621 is fixedly connected to the upper tooling 61. When the upper tooling 61 slides toward the side of the lower tooling 62, the convex block 611 cooperates with the concave block 621. When the upper tooling 61 slides toward the side away from the lower tooling 62, the convex part of the convex block 611 always faces the groove 622. The arrangement of the concave block 621 and the convex block 611 plays a role in positioning and limiting the matched upper tooling 61 and the lower tooling 62, thereby reducing the possibility of deviation when the upper tooling 61 and the lower tooling 62 are matched; and when the upper tooling 61 slides toward one side of the lower tooling 62, the concave block 621 and the convex block 611 guide the rotation of the lower tooling 62, thereby reducing the possibility of the lower tooling 62 rotating to the other side; at the same time, the concave block 621 is arranged on the lower tooling 62, which makes it easier for the lower tooling 62 to rotate by its weight when the upper tooling 61 slides toward one side of the lower tooling 62.

[0038] Reference Figure 1-Figure 5 , the piston movement of the piston rod of the hydraulic cylinder 631 causes the upper tooling 61 to slide repeatedly in the vertical direction.

When the upper tooling 61 and the lower tooling 62 cooperate, the welding assembly 5 welds the ball head 8 and the mirror rod 9; after the welding is completed, the third driving member 63 drives the lower tooling 62 to slide toward the side away from the upper tooling 61, and the lower tooling 62 rotates toward the side of the unloading mechanism 4, so that the welded metal parts on the mold core of the lower tooling 62 roll along the lower tooling 62 toward the unloading mechanism 4 to the unloading mechanism 4 for transportation; so as to realize the automatic feeding of the mirror rod 9 and the ball head 8 and the automatic unloading of the metal parts after welding; so as to improve the automation and safety of the welding process and reduce the possibility of safety hazards; at the same time, it reduces the possibility of the ball head 8 being knocked off by a strong impact after welding, so as to improve the production quality of metal parts.

[0039] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The unloading mechanism 4 includes a conveyor belt 42, a plurality of shock absorbing plates 43 and a driving assembly 44. A frame 41 is installed on one side of the workbench 1, and a logistics box 13 is placed next to the frame 41. The conveyor belt 42 is connected to the frame 41 in a transmission manner. The two ends of the conveyor belt 42 in the transmission direction are respectively facing the lower tooling 62 and the logistics box 13. The plurality of shock absorbing plates 43 are evenly distributed along the outer surface of the conveyor belt 42. The driving assembly 44 is used to drive the transmission of the conveyor belt 42. When the upper tooling 61 moves toward the side away from the lower tooling 62, the lower tooling 62 rotates toward the side of the conveyor belt 42.

[0040] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 The driving assembly 44 includes two swing rods 441, an extension rod 442 and a half gear 443. A plurality of gear rollers 446 are rotatably connected to the frame 41. The conveyor belt 42 is wound around the plurality of gear rollers 446 and meshed with the plurality of gear rollers 446. A one-way bearing 445 is rotatably connected to the frame 41. Any gear roller 446 is coaxially and fixedly connected to the outer ring of the one-way bearing 445. A pinion 444 is coaxially and fixedly connected to the inner ring of the one-way bearing 445. The half gear 443 is rotatably connected to the frame 41, and the half gear 443 is rotatably connected to the frame 41. The gear 443 is meshed with the pinion 444, and the two swing arms 441 are simultaneously rotated and connected to the frame 41, and the two swing arms 441 are coaxial and fixedly connected to the half gear 443, and the extension rod 442 is fixedly connected to the lower tooling 62, and the extension rod 442 is located between the angles of the two swing arms 441. When the lower tooling 62 rotates in different directions, the extension rod 442 respectively abuts against the two swing arms 441, and the one-way bearing 445 rotates only when the lower tooling 62 rotates toward one side of the conveyor belt 42.

[0041] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 , and the extension rod 442 is threadedly connected to the lower tooling 62 by bolts, that is, it is detachably connected to the side of the lower tooling 62 close to the second feeding mechanism 3, and a guide port 4421 is provided on the extension rod 442, which is coaxial and directly faces the core part of the lower tooling 62. The setting of the guide port 4421 guides the second feeding mechanism 3 to transport the mirror rod 9 to the mold core, reducing the possibility that the mirror rod 9 cannot enter the mold core of the lower tooling 62 due to the swing of the lower tooling 62.

[0042] Reference Figure 3-Figure 6During the rotation, the lower tooling 62 moves the extension rod 442 and causes the swing rod 441 to drive the half gear 443 to rotate. Through the meshing between the half gear 443 and the pinion 444, the pinion 444 and the toothed roller 446 coaxial with the pinion 444 rotate, thereby causing the conveyor belt 42 meshing with the toothed roller 446 to transmit the power. By setting a one-way bearing 445, when the lower tooling 62 rotates toward one side of the conveyor belt 42, the one-way bearing 445 drives the toothed roller 446 to rotate. When the lower tooling 62 rotates toward one side of the upper tooling 61, the one-way bearing 445 does not drive the gear to rotate, thereby allowing the conveyor belt 42 to transmit the power toward one side. The rotation of the lower tooling 62 links the conveyor belt 42 to transmit the power, so that the metal parts on the lower tooling 62 can fall between two different damping plates 43 respectively, thereby reducing the possibility of collision between the two metal parts.

By arranging a plurality of shock-absorbing plates 43 on the conveyor belt 42, the metal parts roll down to between the two shock-absorbing plates 43 for transmission, thereby reducing the possibility of collision between metal parts or collision between two metal parts, resulting in the falling off of the ball head 8 or surface damage, so as to improve the production quality of metal parts, and the metal parts are kept in a uniform direction for transmission and fall into the logistics box 13, which is convenient for subsequent processing and handling, and at the same time, it is convenient to observe the metal parts on the conveyor belt 42, thereby reducing the possibility of defective or substandard products flowing into subsequent processing.

When welding, the first cylinder 251 drives the sliding seat 22 to slide toward the side of the lower tooling 62, so that the ball head 8 on the support mold 7 abuts against the mirror rod 9; when welding is completed, the first cylinder 251 drives the sliding seat 22 to slide toward the side away from the lower tooling 62, so that the welded ball head 8 is separated from the support mold 7, and the next ball head 8 falls on the support mold 7; the setting of the hose 24 reduces the possibility of interference with the sliding seat 22 when sliding, and when the sliding seat 22 slides, the hose 24 and the ball head 8 in the hollow tube 23 move due to inertia, reducing the possibility of the ball head 8 in the hose 24 or the hollow tube 23 getting stuck, and increasing the continuity of the ball head 8 feeding.

[0047] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 7 The welding assembly 5 includes a plurality of welding heads 51 and a power source 52. The plurality of welding heads 51 are fixedly connected to the mold 7, respectively. The power source 52 is fixedly connected to the workbench 1, and the power source 52 is electrically connected to the plurality of welding heads 51. The power source 52 outputs a suitable current and voltage to the welding heads 51 to generate high temperature, so that the part where the ball head 8 and the mirror rod 9 abut against each other is partially melted. When the liquid metal cools and solidifies, the ball head 8 and the mirror rod 9 are welded to form a metal part. The welding head 51 is arranged at the mold 7, which is convenient for positioning the welding position. The welding position of the ball head 8 and the mirror rod 9 may deviate, which may affect the welding quality of the metal part.

[0048] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 A contact button 11 is installed on the workbench 1, and a return spring is fixedly connected to the contact button 11, which always drives the contact button 11 to slide toward the upper tooling 61, and the contact button 11 is located on the moving path of the lower tooling 62. A controller 12 is provided on the workbench 1, and the controller 12 is used to receive the signal of the contact button 11 and control the power supply 52 to energize the welding head 51. When the lower tooling 62 cooperates with the upper tooling 61, the lower tooling 62 abuts on the contact button 11. When the lower tooling 62 cooperates with the upper tooling 61, the lower tooling 62 and the upper tooling 61 clamp and limit the mirror rod 9 and the ball head 8 abuts on the mirror rod 9. At this time, the lower tooling 62 abuts on the contact button 11, so that the power supply 52 energizes the welding head 51 for welding, so as to improve the automation degree of the welding process, and weld after the mirror rod 9 and the ball head 8 are in place, so as to reduce the possibility that the welding head 51 is welded in advance or delayed to affect the welding quality of the metal parts. Furthermore, the contact button 11 is provided with a return spring, which can reduce the possibility that the lower tooling 62 does not rotate.

[0049] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The controller 12 is also used to control the movement of power elements such as the hydraulic cylinder 631, the first cylinder 251 and the second cylinder 35, so as to achieve the overall coordination of the automatic welding machine and enable each mechanism to cooperate to complete the operation.

[0050] Of course, the above are only typical examples of the present application. In addition, the present application may have many other specific implementation methods. All technical solutions formed by equivalent replacement or equivalent transformation fall within the scope of protection required by the present application.
