Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of PTC heater manufacturing equipment, and in particular to a PTC large and small sheet pressing machine. Background Art

[0002] PTC heaters, also called PTC heating elements, are made of PTC ceramic heating elements and aluminum tubes, and are in strip shape. This type of PTC heater has the advantages of low thermal resistance and high heat exchange efficiency. It is an automatic constant temperature and energy-saving electric heater. The outstanding feature is safety performance. Under any application conditions, it will not produce the "reddening" phenomenon on the surface of electric heating tube heaters, which will cause safety hazards such as burns and fires.

[0003] In order to facilitate the heat dissipation of the heating strip, a large number of heat sinks are usually inserted into the heating strip. The specific manufacturing process is to provide a plug hole for the heating strip to be inserted on the heat sink, and the plug hole and the heating strip are interference fit. However, the current automation level of the heat sink and the heating strip is not high, and most of them are assembled manually, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. Not only is the work efficiency low, but it also requires long-term and high-intensity repetition of the same assembly action, which is labor-intensive.

[0004] To this end, the applicant applied for a utility model named "PTC Heater Press Machine" on July 15, 2022, with patent number "CN202221816465.0", which discloses a PTC heater press machine, which includes a frame, a vibrating loading tray, a feeding rail, a loading mechanism, a heat sink pick-up and place mechanism, a column, a floating pressing mechanism and a heating strip clamping mechanism. The vibrating loading tray vibrates the heat sink placed therein and arranges them neatly and sends them to the feeding rail, which then sends them one by one to the position of the loading mechanism. The loading mechanism is then pushed to the predetermined loading position for the heat sink pick-up and placement mechanism to grab them. The heat sink pick-up and placement mechanism moves the grabbed heat sink to the position above the heating strip and slightly inserts the heating strip into the socket of the heat sink. Finally, the floating pressing mechanism moves downward to press the heat sink to the predetermined assembly position of the heating strip. Although it can replace manual assembly of the heating strip and the heat sink, it is only suitable for the assembly of heat sinks of one specification and size, and has a narrow scope of application. However, sometimes, it is necessary to assemble heat sinks of two different specifications and sizes on the same heating strip, which cannot meet the production assembly requirements.
