Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of bolt tightening, and in particular relates to intelligent equipment for automatically tightening engine bolts. Background Art

[0002] Engine bolts are important fasteners used to secure and connect various engine components. They are typically used to connect different engine components, such as the cylinder head, cylinder block, and crankshaft, ensuring that the various internal engine components are firmly connected together to prevent loosening or falling off during operation. However, there are a large number of bolts on an engine, and tightening them manually would be too labor-intensive. Therefore, automatic tightening devices for engine bolts are now available.

[0003] The automatic tightening device for engine bolts uses a robotic arm to drive the bit to rotate, thereby tightening the engine bolts. Combining the flexibility and precision of industrial robots, it can complete complex multi-angle tightening tasks and is particularly suitable for applications that require high precision and repeatability. However, the existing automatic tightening device for engine bolts cannot automatically replace the bit. At the same time, it is difficult to align the bit and bolt, requiring multiple robotic arm adjustments, resulting in low production efficiency and a narrow scope of application. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The technical solution adopted to solve the above technical problems is: an intelligent device for automatically tightening engine bolts, comprising a fixing frame, both sides of which are fixedly connected to a mechanical arm, a driving mechanism fixedly connected to the mechanical arm, a drill bit rotatably connected to the driving mechanism, a bolt bit fixedly connected to the drill bit, and a bit rack fixedly connected to the upper surface of the fixing frame;

[0006] The drill bit includes a driving shaft that passes through a rotatable connection driving mechanism, an inclined groove is provided in the driving shaft, a connecting rod passes through the driving shaft and is rotatably connected, a slider is fixedly connected to the connecting rod, the slider and the inclined groove slide in cooperation with each other, and a first spring is fixedly connected to the upper end of the connecting rod.

[0007] Through the above technical solution, through the use of a robotic arm, a drive mechanism and a drill bit, automatic replacement and automatic alignment of the screwdriver bit are realized, which greatly improves the efficiency of tightening the bolts. Through the use of the bevel groove and the slider, when the drill bit is pressed down, the slider moves in the bevel groove, thereby driving the connecting rod to rotate, and the connecting rod drives the screwdriver bit to rotate through the rotating rod, so that the screwdriver bit is aligned with the bolt. After that, it is always pressed down under the action of the first spring until the screwdriver bit is covered with the bolt. Then, driven by the drive shaft, the slider moves to one end of the bevel groove and is stuck. The drive shaft drives the rotating rod to rotate through the connecting rod, and the rotating rod drives the screwdriver bit to rotate through the clamping claw to tighten the bolt.

[0008] Furthermore, the robotic arm includes a rotating base fixedly connected to a fixed frame, one side of the rotating base is rotatably connected to a large arm, an end of the large arm away from the rotating base is rotatably connected to a small arm, an end of the small arm away from the large arm is rotatably connected to a first rotating joint, and one end of the first rotating joint is rotatably connected to a second rotating joint.

[0009] Through the above technical solution, the driving mechanism is driven to move by the robotic arm, so that the drill bit can drive the screwdriver bit to move to any position, making it convenient to tighten the engine bolts.

[0010] Furthermore, the connection between the rotating seat, the upper arm, the lower arm, the first rotating joint and the second rotating joint are all driven by a servo motor, and the driving mechanism includes a shell fixedly connected to the second rotating joint, a driving motor fixedly connected to the shell, an output end of the driving motor fixedly connected to a rotating shaft, and an end of the rotating shaft away from the driving motor fixedly connected to a driving gear.

[0013] With the above technical solution, the drive shaft can be clamped on the housing through the clamping ring to prevent it from falling off.

[0014] Furthermore, the lower end of the connecting rod is fixedly connected to a rotating rod, and the end of the rotating rod away from the connecting rod is penetrated by a plurality of clamping claws that are slidably connected, and the clamping claws are arranged at an angle.

[0017] Through the above technical solution, through the cooperation of the first locking tooth and the second locking tooth, when the driving motor drives the drill bit to rotate, the driving shaft drives the rotating rod to rotate, and the locking sleeve is clamped by the first locking tooth, thereby causing the ratchet ring to be clamped, and the ratchet ring cooperates with the first ratchet to clamp the rotating sleeve, and the rotating rod drives the clamping jaw to rotate, and the threaded groove on the clamping jaw cooperates with the rotating sleeve, so that the clamping jaw moves inward to clamp the bit.

[0018] Furthermore, the end of the rotating rod away from the connecting rod is fixedly connected to a limiting ring, the limiting ring is rotatably connected to a locking sleeve on the outside, the end of the locking sleeve away from the limiting ring is fixedly connected to a plurality of second teeth, the end of the locking sleeve close to the connecting rod is fixedly connected to a second spring, the end of the second spring away from the locking sleeve is fixedly connected to a ratchet ring, and the ratchet ring and the first ratchet are engaged with each other.

[0019] Through the above technical solution, when disassembling and assembling the bolt bit, the second tooth is clamped by the first tooth, so the locking sleeve is fixed, and the locking sleeve pushes the ratchet ring to clamp the first ratchet tooth through the second spring, so that the rotating sleeve is locked. Under the thread cooperation between the rotating sleeve and the thread groove, the rotating clamping jaws are pushed inward to clamp the bolt bit. After that, as the clamping of the clamping jaws is completed, the first ratchet breaks through the thrust of the second spring and pushes open the ratchet ring to avoid damage to the ratchet ring.

[0020] Furthermore, the bit rack includes a base fixedly connected to the fixing frame, a plurality of bit fixing grooves are formed on the base, and a plurality of first latching teeth are fixedly connected around the bit fixing grooves.

Subsequently, the slider moves to one end of the inclined groove and is clamped under the drive shaft. The drive shaft drives the rotating rod to rotate through the connecting rod. The rotating rod drives the bit to rotate through the clamping jaw to tighten the bolt. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

The slider 58 and the oblique groove 56 slide with each other, and the upper end of the connecting rod 57 is fixedly connected to the first spring 59. In the process of downward movement of the drill bit 5, when the bolt bit 6 is not aligned with the bolt, the bolt bit 6 drives the connecting rod 57 to move upward through the rotating rod 54. At this time, the slider 58 on the connecting rod 57 cooperates with the oblique groove 56 to drive the connecting rod 57 to rotate, so that the bolt bit 6 is rotated to a position aligned with the bolt, and moves down to cover the bolt.

[0038] A pair of snap rings 52 are fixedly connected to the drive shaft 51, and the pair of snap rings 52 are engaged with the housing 41.

Under the threaded cooperation between the rotating sleeve 512 and the thread groove 511, the rotating clamping jaw 510 is pushed inward to clamp the bolt bit 6. After that, as the clamping of the clamping jaw 510 is completed, the first ratchet tooth 513 breaks through the thrust of the second spring 515 and pushes open the ratchet ring 514 to avoid damage to the ratchet ring 514.

[0040] like Figure 2As shown, the upper surface of the fixing frame 1 is fixedly connected to the bit rack 2, and the bit rack 2 includes a base 21 fixedly connected to the fixing frame 1.

At this time, the slider 58 on the connecting rod 57 cooperates with the inclined groove 56 to drive the connecting rod 57 to rotate, so that the bolt bit 6 rotates to a position aligned with the bolt, and moves down to cover the bolt, and then tightens the bolt under the drive of the drive motor 42.
