DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0025] The above and other embodiments and advantages of the present invention are described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments.

[0026] In one embodiment, if Figure 1-Figure 9 As shown: This embodiment provides a caster automatic assembly machine, including a bottom cabin 1, a top cabin 2 is installed on the top of the bottom cabin 1, a guide seat 3 is fixed in the top cabin 2, a large number of steel balls are installed in the top cabin 2, a vertical upward guide hole 4 is opened in the guide seat 3, a guide column 5 is installed in the guide hole 4, an electric cylinder 6 connected to the bottom of the guide column 5 is installed in the bottom cabin 1, the top of the guide column 5 penetrates to the top of the guide seat 3, an assembly seat 7 is fixed on the top of the guide column 5, the assembly seat 7 is annular, and a steel ball cavity 8 is opened on the top surface of the assembly seat 7. The opening of 8 faces upward, the assembly seat 7 can be lifted under the drive of the guide column 5, and the steel ball is assembled to the caster by using the steel ball cavity 8. A vertical oil cavity 9 is opened in the guide column 5, and a piston 10 is assembled in the oil cavity 9. The top of the piston 10 is connected to a piston rod 11, and the top of the piston rod 11 enters the top of the assembly seat 7, and a pressure seat 12 is installed on the top of the piston rod 11. The top surface of the pressure seat 12 protrudes from the top surface of the assembly seat 7. A spring 13 is arranged between the top of the pressure seat 12 and the assembly seat 7, and the spring 13 is sleeved on the pressure seat 12;

[0027] The steel ball cavity 8 is annular, and the cross-sectional shape of the steel ball cavity 8 is composed of a semicircular cavity 16 at the top and a U-shaped cavity 17 at the bottom. A plurality of oil pipes 15 enter the U-shaped cavity 17 from the bottom surface of the assembly seat 7;

[0028] The oil chamber 9 is filled with lubricating oil, and an oil pipe 15 is connected between the oil chamber 9 and the assembly seat 7. There are a plurality of oil pipes 15, which are distributed in a circular array on the periphery of the guide column 5. The top ends of the plurality of oil pipes 15 enter the bottom of the steel ball chamber 8 from the bottom surface of the assembly seat 7.

[0029] A countersunk hole 18 is provided at the top of the assembly seat 7, and a spherical surface 19 protruding from the top surface of the assembly seat 7 is provided at the top of the pressure-bearing seat 12. The bottom diameter of the spherical surface 19 is larger than the diameter of the pressure-bearing seat 12, and the bottom surface of the spherical surface 19 faces the bottom of the countersunk hole 18. The upper and lower ends of the spring 13 elastically contact between the bottom of the countersunk hole 18 and the bottom surface of the spherical surface 19.

[0030] like Figures 3 to 6 As shown, a replenishing cylinder 22 is provided on the top cabin 2, and lubricating oil is filled in the replenishing cylinder 22. The replenishing cylinder 22 is located above the oil chamber 9 and higher than the pressure-bearing seat 12. The replenishing cylinder 22 is equivalent to a high-level box, which is used to fill the oil chamber 9 with lubricating oil through a hose 23.

[0031] Working principle and technical effect: when the assembly machine is powered on, under the control of the servo control system, the manipulator sends the semi-finished caster to the top of the top cabin 2, and the electric cylinder 6 (or air cylinder) is powered on, and its action rod pushes the guide column 5 to rise along the guide hole 4 of the guide seat 3, and the guide column 5 pushes the assembly seat 7 to rise. The assembly seat 7 is located below the inner cavity of the top cabin 2, that is, the assembly seat 7 is immersed in the steel ball of the top cabin 2. At this time, when the assembly seat 7 rises, it will rise with the semicircular cavity 16 on the top, and pass A small amount of steel balls are intercepted from a large number of steel balls through the semicircular cavity 16, and the intercepted steel balls are pressed into the wheel rim as the semicircular cavity 16 is lifted. Since the semicircular cavity 16 is annular, the intercepted steel balls are also distributed in annular shapes. Therefore, these steel rings are pressed against the wheel rim at this time, so that the steel balls are evenly distributed in the wheel rim. In addition, the assembly seat 7 is pressed into the wheel rim with the semicircular cavity 16, and the piston rod 11 is also raised, and the piston rod 11 is raised with the pressure seat 12. Since the top of the pressure seat 12 protrudes from the assembly seat 7, and the pressure seat 12 is located at the center of the assembly seat 7. Therefore, when the pressure seat 12 rises, the spherical surface 19 at the top can contact the wheel axle of the caster. The wheel axle has been assembled on the semi-finished caster in the previous process, and the wheel axle is located at the center of the wheel rim. Therefore, the bottom end of the wheel axle forms an extrusion effect on the spherical surface 19, forcing the spherical surface 19 to push the pressure seat 12 down. The pressure seat 12 pushes the piston rod 11 down. At this time, the spring 13 is compressed and shortened and stores elastic force. At this time, the piston rod 11 pushes the piston 10 As the oil chamber 9 descends, it gradually becomes smaller. At this time, pressure is formed in the oil chamber 9, and the lubricating oil in the oil chamber 9 is sent to all the oil pipes 15 by using the pressure. As the pressure gradually increases, the lubricating oil in the oil pipe 15 enters the U-shaped chamber 17. Since the steel ball is intercepted in the semicircular chamber 16 at the top of the U-shaped chamber 17 at this time, the lubricating oil enters the U-shaped chamber 17. At this time, the bottom surface of the steel ball is automatically oiled, which solves the working mode of distributed oiling in the prior art and improves assembly efficiency. When the manipulator transfers the semi-finished caster from the steel ball assembly process to the next process, the servo control system will control the electric cylinder 6 to bring the guide column 5 to descend in the opposite direction, and the guide column 5 will bring the assembly seat 7 to descend. At the same time, the top of the pressure seat 12 is no longer restricted by the bottom of the wheel axle, so the squeezing effect of the top of the pressure seat 12 disappears quickly. At this time, the spring 13 releases the elastic force upward and restores the length, and pushes the pressure seat 12 to reset and rise while restoring the length. The spherical surface 19 protrudes from the top surface of the assembly seat 7 again, and the pressure seat 12 resets and rises with the piston rod 11, and the piston rod 11 resets and rises with the piston 10. The assembly seat 7 is finally pulled back to the top cabin 2 again and is immersed in all the steel balls again. When the piston 10 resets upward, the connection end of the hose 23 and the oil chamber 9 is lower than the piston 10. When the piston 10 resets upward, the connection end of the hose 23 and the oil chamber 9 is lower than the piston 10. At this time, not only the volume of the oil chamber 9 becomes larger, but also the hose 23 will automatically replenish the lubricating oil in the replenishing cylinder 22 into the oil chamber 9.When the next semi-finished caster is transferred to the top of the top cabin 2 by the robot, the above assembly action is repeated, the piston 10 descends again, the volume of the oil chamber 9 becomes smaller again, the pressure increases again, the lubricating oil in the oil chamber 9 is injected into the U-shaped cavity 17 again through the oil pipe 15, and the assembly seat 7 rises from the top cabin 2 again, and while rising, some steel balls are intercepted from the top cabin 2 again and pressed on the semi-finished caster, and the steel balls are automatically oiled.

[0032] The inner periphery of the assembly seat 7 is provided with a blanking hole 20, and the edge of the blanking hole 20 is provided with a rounded corner 21. When the assembly seat 7 intercepts some steel balls from the numerous steel balls and pushes these steel balls upward, the excess steel balls will roll down from the blanking hole 20 back into the top compartment 2. The opening of the rounded corner 21 makes it easier for the excess steel balls to roll down through the blanking hole 20.

[0033] like Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown, in another embodiment, a ring 24 is provided in the top cabin 2, and the ring 24 is located above the assembly seat 7. A fixing plate 26 is connected between the outer wall of the ring 24 and the inner wall of the top cabin 2. The fixing plate 26 gradually tilts upward toward one end of the ring 24. The inner diameter of the ring 24 is larger than the outer diameter of the assembly seat 7. The outer surface of the assembly seat 7 is close to the inner wall of the ring 24. The assembly seat 7 enters the ring 24 during the lifting action. An annular rubber 25 is provided on the inner wall of the ring 24. The inner diameter of the rubber 25 is smaller than the outer diameter of the assembly seat 7. The cross-sectional shape of the rubber 25 is arc-shaped, so that the arc-shaped inner surface of the rubber 25 bulges inward. When the assembly seat 7 rises, the operator manually or with tools or in actual production, another set of manipulators is set on the assembly machine to automatically press the spherical surface 19, and the spherical surface 19 pushes the piston rod 11 down, and the piston rod 11 pushes the piston 10 down, the spring 13 is compressed and shortened and stores elastic force, the volume of the oil chamber 9 can also become smaller, the pressure will also increase, and the lubricating oil in the oil chamber 9 will also be injected into the U-shaped cavity 17 through the oil pipe 15, and the steel balls intercepted in the semicircular cavity 16 are automatically oiled. The assembly seat 7 continues to rise, and while using the semicircular cavity 16 to push these steel balls to rise, they first enter the ring 24, and the inner wall protrusion of the rubber 25 faces the surface of the steel balls forcing these steel balls to roll, so that the surfaces of these steel balls effectively pass through the U-shaped cavity 17, so that the lubricating oil in the U-shaped cavity 17 is more evenly attached to the surface of the steel balls, and the assembly seat 7 continues to rise with these steel balls, and when these steel balls are assembled on the caster rim, the lubrication quality of these steel balls is greatly improved.

[0034] The fixing plate 26 is a spring plate. When the inner circle of the rubber 25 is squeezed, the squeezing force is transmitted to the ring 24, so that the diameter of the ring 24 becomes larger, and the ring 24 pushes the fixing plate 26 to become shorter in spring property. That is, when the steel balls enter the rubber 25 and are rubbed by the rubber 25 and roll in the semicircular cavity 16, the rubber 25 will radially expand, and these steel balls will not fall from the inner edge of the semicircular cavity 16.

[0035] like Figure 3 , Figure 6 As shown, in another embodiment, a lifting plate 27 is fixed in the top cabin 2, and a lifting hole 28 is opened in the middle of the lifting plate 27. The lifting plate 27 is sleeved on the guide seat 3 through the lifting hole 28. The upper part of the lifting plate 27 forms an upper compartment 29 in the top cabin 2. The steel balls are located in the upper compartment 29. When the lifting plate 27 rises, the height of the steel balls is adjusted. During the actual assembly, another electric cylinder will be installed at the bottom of the lifting plate 27. The electric cylinder is used to push the lifting plate 27 up. The lifting plate 27 pushes the steel balls up. When the assembly seat 7 is reset downward, it is ensured that the steel balls in the upper compartment 29 will be able to effectively cover the assembly seat 7, and ensure that when the assembly seat 7 rises, the semicircular cavity 16 can be used to intercept some steel balls from the upper compartment 29 and assemble them on the casters.
