It is responsible for converting electrical signals into optical signals (transmitting end) or converting optical signals into electrical signals (receiving end). The main function of an optical module is to complete the optical / electrical conversion in an optical network, ensuring that the signal can be transmitted efficiently and stably in the optical fiber.

[0003] The shells of some optical modules on the market are die-cast. The metal shell has advantages such as good heat dissipation and mechanical strength. After the die-cast optical module shell is produced, there will be slag bags connected to the product, and these slag bags need to be cut off. In addition, the die-cast shell usually involves loading, unloading, and drilling processes. However, some slag bag cutting equipment has a low degree of automation and can only complete the slag bag cutting process, but cannot complete the loading, drilling, and unloading processes at the same time.

[0036] Please refer to Figure 1-3 As shown, the present application provides a flexible integrated automation equipment for optical modules, including a feeding device 10 for feeding a workpiece; a loading device 20 is arranged on the side of the feeding device 10; a first slag bag shaping device 30 is arranged on the side of the loading device 20, and the first slag bag shaping device 30 shapes the first slag bag 91; a first slag bag cutting device 40 is arranged on the side of the first slag bag shaping device 30, and the first slag bag cutting device 40 cuts off the first slag bag 91 on the workpiece 90; a second slag bag cutting device 50 is arranged At the side of the first slag bag removal device 40, the second slag bag removal device 50 removes the second slag bag 92 on the workpiece 90; the drilling device 60 is arranged at the side of the second slag bag removal device 50, and the drilling device 60 drills the workpiece 90; the transfer device 70 is arranged at the side of the first slag bag shaping device 30; the transfer device 70 can transfer the workpiece 90 among the first slag bag shaping device 30, the first slag bag removal device 40, the second slag bag removal device 50, the drilling device 60, and the unloading device 80.

[0037] The processing steps of this equipment are as follows: 1. The die-cast workpiece is grabbed by the material preparation manipulator 21 to the feeding device 10, and the feeding device 10 transports the workpiece 90 to the loading device 20. 2. The manipulator 21 of the loading device 20 grabs the workpiece 90 and places the workpiece 90 on the profiling seat 23, waiting for the next process. 3. The transfer device 70 loads the workpiece on the profiling seat 23 to the first slag bag shaping device 30, and the first slag bag shaping device 30 shapes the first slag bag 91 so that the first slag bag 91 can be bent at a certain angle. 4.

The transfer device 70 continues to transfer the workpiece 90 on the second slag bag removal device 50 to the drilling device 60, and the drilling device 60 drills the workpiece 90. 7. After the workpiece 90 is drilled, the transfer device 70 puts the workpiece into the unloading device 80.

[0038] Please refer to Figure 4 , Fig.13As shown, preferably, the feeding device 10 includes a lifting module 11, a hopper 12 arranged on the lifting module 11 and capable of swinging up and down, a conveyor belt 13 tiltedly arranged on the side of the hopper 12, and an air cooling box 14 arranged on the conveyor belt 13; a baffle 15 and a first sensor 16 are arranged on the outside of the conveyor belt 13. The baffle 15 at the bottom is tilted outward to help catch the workpiece 90. The lifting module 11 is preferably a module driven by a cylinder or a screw. The rotating cylinder drives the hopper 12 to swing up and down, and the swinging of the hopper 12 up and down is conducive to the workpiece falling smoothly onto the conveyor belt 13. This design can avoid the deformation of the first slag bag 91 and the second slag bag 92, so as to facilitate the shaping of subsequent processes. As a preferred solution, a vibration source 17 is arranged at the bottom of the hopper 12 in this embodiment, and a Y-shaped channel 18 is formed in the hopper 12. With the cooperation of the vibration source 17 and the Y-shaped channel 18, the workpiece 90 can be transported to the conveyor belt 13 in the center, which is conducive to reducing the later correction work. The baffles 15 on both sides of the conveyor belt 13 are provided with roller groups 19, which are arranged in a Y-shaped channel 18. The workpiece 90 passes through the Y-shaped channel 18. This design can perform secondary position calibration on the workpiece 90, improve the speed of subsequent loading, and reduce the calibration steps. The first sensor 16 can be used to sense the position of the material to ensure the coordinated action between the systems. A temperature sensor for detecting the temperature of the workpiece 90 is provided in the air cooling box 14. The fan on the air cooling box 14 receives the information of the temperature sensor and adjusts the wind speed.

[0039] Please refer to Figure 5 As shown, preferably, the loading device 20 includes a manipulator 21, a detection camera 22, and a profiling seat 23; the detection camera 22 faces the workpiece; a rotatable first clamp 24 is provided on the manipulator 21; the manipulator 21 loads the workpiece 90 onto the profiling seat 23. The detection camera 22 is preferably a CCD camera, which can detect the appearance, direction, etc. of the workpiece 90. The profiling seat 23 is adapted to the product, and the product can be embedded in the profiling seat 23. Please refer to Figure 5As shown, the manipulator 21 can rotate on multiple axes, so the first clamp 24 moves to any angle and position. This design facilitates the first clamp 24 to adjust the angle of the product and place the product at the set position. The first clamp 24 is O-shaped after closing, and a clamp 25 is provided at both ends. Among them, the end of the clamp 25 is a thin-walled structure 26. This design allows the first clamp 24 to clamp on the second slag bag 92 of the workpiece 90 more smoothly, which helps to improve the success rate of clamping and avoid empty clamping. Among them, in this embodiment, the first slag bag 91 corresponds to the exhaust groove waste, and the second slag bag 92 corresponds to the waste in the flow channel. The cross-section of the second slag bag 92 is circular or elliptical (that is, it is consistent with the shape of the flow channel), and ordinary clamps cannot clamp it, pick it up, or it is easy to fall off. However, the end of the clamp of the first clamp 24 in this embodiment is a thin-walled structure 26. This design facilitates the clamp to shovel and clamp the workpiece 90 on the conveyor belt 13. This structure is very clever and has a higher success rate of clamping. The vibration source is preferably a vibrator.

[0040] Please refer to Figure 6 As shown, preferably, the first slag bag shaping device 30 includes a first upper mold 31 and a first lower mold 33 that can be closed together; wherein, the first lower mold 33 includes a first mounting seat 34, a first lower mold core 35, a shaping block 36, and a first spring 37; the first lower mold core 35 is arranged on the first mounting seat 34, and can compress the first spring 37 in the first mounting seat 34; the shaping block 36 is arranged on the first mounting seat 34, and is located at the outer periphery of the first lower mold core 35. A first mounting groove is arranged on the first mounting seat 34, and the shaping block 36 is inserted into the first mounting groove and then locked with a latch or a screw. wherein the first spring 37 can play a buffering role, making cutting and pressing more relaxed. The first upper mold 31 includes a first upper mold 31 core. The first upper mold 31 core and the first lower mold core 35 are both contoured, and are adapted to the structure of the product. More preferably, the first upper mold 31 core is provided with a first electrode 32, and the shaping block 36 is provided with a second electrode 38, wherein each second electrode 38 corresponds to a second slag bag 92. The first electrode 32 and the second electrode 38 are connected to an electric control machine, which can detect the on / off state between each electrode. When the mold is closed, the first electrode 32 is connected to each second electrode 38 through the product, and each second slag bag 92 can be pressed on the corresponding second electrode 38, then all the bends are considered to be in place. If some of the second electrodes 38 are not conductive, then some of the slag bags are considered to be not bent in place, and inspection is required to ensure the accuracy of subsequent cutting. It should be noted that the first electrode 32 and each second electrode 38 are provided with an insulating tube, and the first electrode 32 and each second electrode 38 are elastic electrodes that can be compressed and contracted. There is a slope on the shaping block 36, which can be used for shaping. Please refer to Figure 6 The locally enlarged view in FIG. 1 shows a schematic diagram of the first slag bag 91 being shaped by the shaping block 36.

[0041] The workpiece is placed on the first lower mold core 35, and the first cylinder 39 drives the first upper mold 31 to move toward the first lower mold 33. The first upper mold 31 presses on the first lower mold core 35, and the first lower mold core 35 compresses the first spring 37 in the first mounting seat 34, and the first lower mold core 35 moves downward. When the first lower mold core 35 moves to the designed stroke, the first slag bag 91 will be supported by the shaping block 36, so that the first slag bag 91 will be bent. In this embodiment, the super-lower outer sides of the left and right sides are bent, and the first slag bags 91 on the front and rear sides are bent toward the upper outer sides. After the first slag bag 91 is bent, it is more helpful for cutting to ensure that the subsequent cutting is in place. The inclined surface angle A of the shaping block 36 is between 15-60°, such as 15°, 20°, 35°, 40°, 45°, 50°, 60°, etc. Different angles can correspond to first slag bags of different thicknesses to ensure that the first slag bag is cut cleanly.

[0042] Preferably, the first slag bag removal device 40 comprises a second upper die 41 and a second lower die 42 that can be closed together, a knife seat 44 arranged on both sides of the second lower die 42, a first cutter 45 slidably arranged on the knife seat 44, and a first baffle 4615 arranged on the knife seat 44; the second sensor senses the workpiece 90 on the second lower die 42; the first cutter 45 moves toward the second lower die 42 and cuts off the first slag bag 91 on the workpiece 90.

The workpiece after the slag bag shaping is loaded onto the second lower die core 43 of the second lower die 42 by the transfer device 70; the second upper die 41 and the second lower die 42 are closed together, and then the third cylinder 411 drives the first cutter 45 to move toward the second lower die core 43, thereby cutting off the first slag bag 91. Among them, the second lower die core 43 is provided with grooves around, and the first cutter 45 is inserted into the grooves to ensure that the first slag bag 91 is completely cut off. The second sensor is preferably a photoelectric sensor, which is used to sense whether the workpiece 90 is in place. A waste trough 47 is provided on the lower side of the second lower die 42 for catching the first slag bag 91 cut and cut. The first baffle 4615 can prevent the cut first slag bag 91 from splashing, ensuring that the first slag bag 91 falls into the waste trough 47. The cooperation of the upper and lower first baffles 4615 can also control the movement trajectory of the first cutter 45 to prevent the first cutter 45 from running off. As a preferred solution, the second lower die core 43 is set on an electronic weighing device 48, which can weigh the workpiece 90. When the first slag bag 91 is cut off, its weight will change, and the system can judge whether the first slag bag 91 is completely cut according to the weighing structure.

The workpiece 90 is placed on the third lower die core 54; the third upper die 51 and the third lower die 52 are closed; the third upper die core 57 causes the third lower die core 54 to compress the third spring downward, and when the third lower die core 54 moves to the designed stroke, the blade of the second cutter 55 enters the knife groove 56. This design can ensure that the second slag bag 92 is completely cut off. Fig.14 As shown, as a preferred solution, the third mounting seat 53 is also arranged on the electronic weighing device 48. This design can determine whether the second slag bag 92 is completely cut off. There is a gap between the blade of the second cutter 55 and the third lower mold core 54, which is conducive to the blade of the second cutter 55 extending into the knife groove 56. The waste groove 47 is also used to catch the second slag bag. There is a gap between the blade of the second cutter 55 and the third lower mold core 54, which is convenient for the workpiece to be placed on the third lower mold core 54 without being affected by the second cutter 55.
