[0002] A connector is a device that connects two active devices and transmits current or signals. The male end and the female end can transmit information or current after contact, which is also called a connector. Connectors are an indispensable part of electronic devices. Connectors are widely used in various electronic devices, mainly playing the role of current or signal transmission, and taking on the task of current or signal transmission. Connectors are widely used in various fields and can be used for line-to-line connection, line-to-board connection or board-to-board connection.

[0003] Whether it is a connector for wire-to-wire connection, wire-to-board connection, or board-to-board connection, the connecting wires can be pre-connected in the connector according to actual needs, so that various connections can be made more conveniently later. In the prior art, the assembly of connectors and wires mostly relies on manual operation. The terminals are connected to the wires one by one, and then installed in a plastic fixing seat. There are also press-fitting and assembly through jigs. Some automatic assembly equipment will press-fit the terminals and wires one by one, and then install the terminals with wires one by one in the plastic fixing seat.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0059] In order to explain the technical content and structural features of the present invention in detail, further description will be given below in combination with the implementation modes and the accompanying drawings.

[0060] See also Figures 1 to 5 The present invention provides a connector automatic assembly wire process 100, comprising the following steps:

[0061] S1, provide a plastic fixing seat 210, a terminal strip 201 and a cable.

[0062] S2, automatically loading the plastic fixing seat 210 onto the automatic assembly device through the first vibration plate, and positioning the plastic fixing seat 210 on the automatic assembly device to be assembled with the terminal assembly 203.

[0063] like Figure 5 As shown, the terminal material strip 201 is in the shape of a coil, and the coiled terminal material strip 201 is automatically loaded onto the automatic assembly device by a material strip loading device.

[0064] A plurality of cables are placed on a wire rack, and then the cables on the wire rack are guided and transferred to an automatic assembly device through a guiding device so as to be assembled with the contact terminals 220 .

[0065] S3, after the cable is delivered to the position, one end of the cable is stripped to expose the connection end 231, and the plurality of cables can be stripped separately. Then, according to actual needs, the cable is cut into a connection line 230 according to a preset length on the automatic assembly device. The preset length is the length of the connection line 230 required for the actual connection.

[0066] S4, the connecting end 231 of the connecting wire 230 is placed in the contact terminal 220 of the terminal strip 201 by the automatic assembly device. The position recognition can be performed automatically, and then the material is automatically discharged. Then, the connecting end 231 of the cable is pressed into the contact terminal 220 by the pressing mechanism on the automatic assembly device to form the terminal assembly 203. At the same time, the contact terminal 220 is separated from the terminal strip 201. It can be understood that when the pressing mechanism presses the contact terminal 220 and the connecting wire 230, the contact terminal 220 can be separated from the terminal strip 201 at the same time, and the structure is reasonably set, the operation is more convenient, and the efficiency is higher.

[0067] S5 , on the automatic assembly device, a plurality of contact terminals 220 with connection wires 230 installed are simultaneously pushed into the plastic fixing seat 210 by a pushing mechanism to form a product 200 .

[0068] After adopting the above technical scheme, the connector automatic assembly wire process 100 of the present invention realizes the automatic assembly of the contact terminal 220, the wire and the plastic fixing part, with high automation, high efficiency and good assembly effect. The plastic fixing seat 210 is loaded through the first vibration plate and can be positioned on the automatic assembly device. The contact terminal 220 is in the form of a coiled terminal strip 201, and is loaded through a strip loading device, which makes the loading operation more convenient. The cable is arranged on the wire rack and guided to the automatic assembly device through a guide device to cooperate with the contact terminal 220. After the cable is stripped to expose the connection end 231, it is cut according to a certain length to form a connecting wire 230. The terminal strip 201 is conveyed on the automatic assembly device, and then pressed and assembled with the connecting wire 230 to form a terminal assembly 203. During the press-fitting process of the contact terminal 220 and the connecting wire 230, the contact terminal 220 is simultaneously separated from the terminal strip 201 under the action of the pressing mechanism, which makes the operation more convenient and efficient. After the contact terminal 220 and the connecting wire 230 are pressed together, the plurality of terminal assemblies 203 are simultaneously pushed into the plastic fixing seat 210 by the pushing mechanism to form the product 200 with high efficiency. The connector automatic wire assembly process 100 of the present invention has high automation, high efficiency and good assembly effect.

[0069] See also Figures 1 to 5 In some optional embodiments, the automatic assembly device includes a first positioning mechanism, a second positioning mechanism, a third positioning mechanism, a cutting mechanism, a pressing mechanism and a pushing mechanism. The first positioning mechanism is used to position the plastic fixing seat 210. The second positioning mechanism is used to position one end of the terminal strip 201. The third positioning mechanism is used to position the cable.

[0070] Step S2 specifically includes the following steps: positioning the plastic fixing seat 210 by a first positioning mechanism on the automatic assembly device, and making the mounting hole 211 of the plastic fixing seat 210 face the contact terminal 220. On the other hand, positioning the terminal strip 201 by a second positioning mechanism on the automatic assembly device, and placing one end of the terminal strip 201 in the second positioning mechanism according to the preset number of terminals. The preset number of terminals is the same as the number of mounting holes 211, so that the contact terminal 220 can be installed in multiple mounting holes 211 at the same time, which is more efficient. Positioning the cable by a third positioning mechanism on the automatic assembly device so as to strip and cut the cable. The number of cables on the third positioning mechanism can be the same as the number of contact terminals 220 in the second positioning mechanism.

[0071] In some embodiments, the guide device may also be provided with a first detection mechanism for identifying the color of the cable. Step S2 specifically includes the following steps: identifying the color of the cable by the first detection mechanism. It is understandable that according to actual use needs, the connector is used in different occasions, and the color of the cable will be selected in different colors according to actual needs. Identifying the color of the cable can avoid using the wrong color of the cable.

[0072] See also Figure 5 In some optional embodiments, the material strip feeding device includes a feeding mechanism, which is arranged above the second positioning mechanism, and the feeding mechanism is used to push the terminal material strip 201. The material strip feeding device also includes a material trough arranged on one side of the second positioning mechanism. On the other hand, the terminal material strip 201 includes a connecting material strip 202 and a contact terminal 220, and one end of the contact terminal 220 is connected to the connecting material strip 202, so that the entire terminal material strip 201 is an integrated structure, so that it can be rolled up and feeding is more convenient. When rolling up, the terminal material strip 201 is rolled up at the same time as a paper tape, and the paper tape can separate two adjacent circles of the terminal material strip 201 to prevent the contact terminals 220 on the two adjacent circles of the terminal material strip 201 from intertwining and interfering with each other, and the structure is simple and reasonable. The connecting material strip 202 is placed in the material trough, and the contact terminal 220 protrudes out of the material trough and can be placed in the second positioning mechanism.

[0073] Step S2 specifically includes the following steps: pushing the terminal strip 201 in the material trough through the feeding mechanism, so that the terminal strip 201 is transmitted in the material trough at a preset interval, so that different multiple contact terminals 220 can be located in the second positioning mechanism. Among them, a plurality of through holes are provided on the connecting strip 202, and the feeding mechanism can move the connecting strip 202 through the through holes outside the material trough, so that the connecting strip 202 slides in the material trough, thereby driving different contact terminals 220 to be placed in the second positioning mechanism. It can be understood that after pressing the material, the contact terminal 220 in the second positioning mechanism is crimped into an integrated structure with the connecting wire 230, and the contact terminal 220 is separated from the connecting strip 202. At this time, the connecting strip 202 is moved by the feeding mechanism, thereby driving different contact terminals 220 to be placed in the second positioning mechanism. The number of contact terminals 220 in the second positioning mechanism is the same as the number of mounting holes 211 on the plastic fixing seat 210, and the distance that the feeding mechanism moves the terminal strip 201 each time is the same as the number of contact terminals 220 with the number of mounting holes 211. The connecting strip 202 slides along the material slot, which can assist in positioning the contact terminal 220 in the second positioning mechanism, and the material slot can guide the terminal strip 201 so that the transmission of the terminal strip 201 will not be offset. The cross-section of the material slot is U-shaped, and the three ends of the material slot are hollowed out. The end close to the second positioning mechanism is used for the contact terminal 220 to extend, and the two sides are used for the connecting strip 202 to enter and exit the material slot. In addition, after the contact terminal 220 is separated from the connecting strip 202, the feeding mechanism continues to push the terminal strip 201, so that the connecting strip 202 extends out of the material slot, and the connecting strip 202 can be rolled up and recycled, and the structure is simple and reasonable.

[0074] See also Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 7 and Figure 8 , wherein step S3 specifically further includes the following steps: peeling one end of the positioned cable on the third positioning mechanism to expose the internal wires, forming a connection end 231. Then the cable is cut into a preset length by a cutting mechanism to form a connection line 230 of a certain length. When cutting the cable, the connection end 231 at the other end of the connection line 230 can be exposed at the same time. The connection ends 231 at both ends of the connection line 230 are used to connect to the contact terminal 220 at one end, and are used to be electrically connected to other wires or plates at the other end.

[0075] Preferably, the automatic assembly device may further include a first identification mechanism. On the other hand, the terminal strip 201 in the second positioning mechanism has a plurality of contact terminals 220, and the number of the contact terminals 220 may be the same as the number of the mounting holes 211 in the plastic fixing seat 210. One end of each contact terminal 220 is provided with a connecting portion 221 that can be connected to a connecting end 231 of a connecting wire 230.

[0076] Step S4 specifically also includes:

[0077] See also Figures 5 to 8 , the connection part 221 of the contact terminal 220 is identified and positioned by the first identification mechanism, and then the connection end 231 of the connecting wire 230 is placed in the connection part 221 by the material picking structure. The material picking structure can be a material picking manipulator. That is, the first identification mechanism identifies and positions the position of the contact terminal 220, and at the same time, the position of the connection end 231 on the connecting wire 230 can also be identified and positioned by the first identification mechanism. Then the material picking manipulator picks up the connecting wire 230 in the third positioning mechanism, and a CCD camera can also be provided in the material picking manipulator to locate the position of the connection end 231 on the connecting wire 230, so that the connection end 231 of the picked connecting wire 230 can be accurately placed in the connection part 221 of the contact terminal 220. Among them, the material picking structure can be provided with multiple groups of material picking components, so that multiple connecting wires 230 can be picked up at the same time, and placed in the connection parts 221 of multiple contact terminals 220 at the same time, which is more efficient. Then, the multiple contact terminals 220 and the multiple connecting wires 230 are pressed together by the pressing mechanism at the same time to form multiple sets of terminal assemblies 203, and the multiple contact terminals 220 are separated from the connecting strip 202 at the same time. At this time, the feeding mechanism continues to push the terminal strip 201 so that the connecting strip 202 is conveyed out of the second positioning mechanism in the material slot, and the connecting strip 202 is reeled by the reeling mechanism. Among them, the pressing mechanism can also be provided with multiple sets of pressing assemblies, which are used to press the contact terminals 220 and the connecting wires 230 together and to cut the contact terminals 220 from the connecting strip 202.

[0078] Preferably, a material pushing track can also be provided between the first positioning mechanism and the second positioning mechanism, and the material pushing mechanism includes multiple groups of material pushing components. Multiple mounting holes 211 cooperating with the contact terminals 220 are provided in the plastic fixing seat 210. Step S5 specifically includes: placing multiple terminal assemblies 203 in the second positioning mechanism, and simultaneously pushing multiple groups of terminal assemblies 203 into the plastic fixing seat 210 along the material pushing track through multiple groups of material pushing components until the contact terminals 220 are engaged and fixed in the mounting holes 211. It can be understood that the second positioning mechanism is left after the material pressing mechanism presses the material. The second positioning mechanism can be rotated or moved close to the first positioning mechanism and aligned. A material pushing track can be provided between the first positioning mechanism and the second positioning mechanism, and multiple groups of material pushing components simultaneously push multiple groups of terminal assemblies 203 into multiple mounting holes 211 of the plastic fixing seat 210. The contact terminal 220 is provided with a pushing portion 224 for the pushing assembly to push the material. The pushing assembly pushes the terminal assembly 203 from both sides or along the circumference of the pushing portion 224 to push the terminal assembly 203 into the mounting hole 211. Specifically, a clamping block 222 is provided on the contact terminal 220, and a clamping portion 212 that cooperates with the clamping block 222 is provided on the plastic fixing seat 210. The pushing mechanism pushes multiple groups of terminal assemblies 203 to slide along the pushing track into the mounting hole 211 until the clamping block 222 is clamped at the clamping portion 212. On the other hand, a contact point 223 that can be electrically connected to other devices is provided at one end of the contact terminal 220, and a contact hole 213 for the contact point 223 to connect with other devices is provided on the plastic fixing seat 210. When the clamping block 222 is clamped in the clamping portion 212 , the terminal assembly 203 is installed in place in the plastic fixing seat 210 . At this time, the contact point 223 is located at the contact hole 213 .

[0079] Preferably, a second detection mechanism and a testing mechanism are also included. Step S6 is also included after step S5: the size detection, appearance detection and line color recognition of the product 200 are performed by the second detection mechanism. Exemplarily, the second detection mechanism can be a CCD mechanism, and the size of the product 200 is detected by the CCD, including the size of the contact terminal 220 extending out of the plastic fixing seat 210. The appearance of the product 200 can also be detected by the CCD, including the appearance of the plastic fixing seat 210 and the appearance of the line. The color of the line on the product 200 can also be identified by the CCD to see if it is the required color. On the other hand, the product 200 is tested for conduction by the testing mechanism to test whether the press-fitting is in place, and to test whether the contact end and the connecting end 231 on the connecting line 230 can be conductive.

[0080] Preferably, a material picking mechanism and a tinning mechanism are also included. Step S7 is also included after step S6: picking up the product 200 by the material picking mechanism and tinning the end of the connecting wire 230 away from the contact terminal 220 on the tinning mechanism. In this embodiment, the length of the connecting wire 230 is relatively short, and the connecting wire 230 can be straightened by a wire management device. A tin box is provided on the equipment, and the material picking mechanism picks up the product 200 and then tins the connecting end 231 of the connecting wire 230 away from the plastic fixing seat 210 in the tin box. Among them, the material picking mechanism can be a structure of a suction cup plus a manipulator, which absorbs the plastic fixing seat 210 by the suction cup, and then the manipulator assists in clamping the entire product 200, so that the entire product 200 is more stable and reliable during the tinning process. Then, after the tin cools down, the product 200 is transferred to the next process.

[0081] Preferably, the equipment also includes a material taking device, a counting device, a tying device and a packaging device. After step S7, step S8 is also included: using the material taking device to pick up the product 200 to the counting device for counting, or the product 200 is automatically sent to the counting device through the conveying device for counting. A preset number of products 200 is a group, and a group of products 200 is conveyed to the tying device. The preset number can be a suitable number such as five, ten or twenty. When the length of the connecting line 230 is long, a group of products 200 are wound at the same time and the group of products 200 are automatically tied together by a cable tie. When the length of the connecting line 230 is short, a group of products 200 are directly automatically tied together by a cable tie. Finally, the bundled products 200 are automatically packaged by a packaging device and then sealed.

[0082] like Figures 1 to 8As shown, the connector automatic assembly wire process 100 of the present invention realizes the automatic assembly of the contact terminal 220, the wire and the plastic fixing part, with high automation, high efficiency and good assembly effect. The plastic fixing seat 210 is loaded through the first vibration plate and can be positioned on the automatic assembly device. The contact terminal 220 is in the form of a coiled terminal strip 201, and is loaded through a strip loading device, which makes the loading operation more convenient. The cable is arranged on the wire rack and guided to the automatic assembly device through a guide device to cooperate with the contact terminal 220. After the cable is stripped to expose the connection end 231, it is cut according to a certain length to form a connecting wire 230. The terminal strip 201 is conveyed on the automatic assembly device, and then pressed and assembled with the connecting wire 230 to form a terminal assembly 203. During the press-fitting process of the contact terminal 220 and the connecting wire 230, the contact terminal 220 is simultaneously separated from the terminal strip 201 under the action of the pressing mechanism, which makes the operation more convenient and efficient. After the contact terminal 220 and the connecting wire 230 are pressed together, the plurality of terminal assemblies 203 are simultaneously pushed into the plastic fixing seat 210 by the pushing mechanism to form the product 200, which is highly efficient. After being tested, the connecting wire 230 is tinned, etc., and finally counted, sorted and packaged. The connector automatic assembly wire process 100 of the present invention has a high degree of automation, high efficiency and good assembly effect.
