Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of riveting equipment, and in particular to an automatic rivet nut gun for a threshold beam of a new energy vehicle. Background Art

[0002] Pull rivet nuts are widely used in the new energy vehicle accessories market. The installation and connection of pull rivet nuts does not damage the working surface and coating. They have good bearing capacity and are not easy to deform. Pull rivet nuts have the characteristics of high salt spray and strong corrosion resistance. They can maintain stable performance in harsh environments. Pull rivet nuts do not require tapping internal threads or welding nuts. The riveting is firm and efficient, which effectively saves labor and time costs.

[0003] However, traditional manual riveting may result in missed rivets and unqualified riveting. Compared with traditional manual riveting, automatic riveting with robotic arms has the function of preventing leaks and errors. When the automatic rivet gun on the traditional robotic arm is riveting thin sheet metal workpieces and welded workpieces, due to the deformation of thin plates and weldments, the traditional rivet gun has no good compensation mechanism for problems such as inaccurate positioning of riveting holes and height deviation of riveting position depth when encountering these conditions. For hole position deviation, 3D detection CCD detection and positioning are usually used. Adding 3D detection CCD positioning function will greatly increase equipment cost, reduce riveting efficiency, and be inconvenient for factory maintenance. Therefore, based on market customer needs, a stable and efficient compensation mechanism is studied for automated robotic arm riveting equipment, which can well solve customer budgets and improve production efficiency.

[0021] 2. The automatic rivet nut gun for the threshold beam of new energy vehicles provided in this application drives the passive plate downward by setting a riveting cylinder to drive the piston shaft, thereby driving the two linkage plates and the Z-axis floating mechanism to move downward, and at the same time utilizes the elastic force of spring I to pre-press the workpiece when riveting, so as to eliminate the incoming material deviation compensation in the height direction of the workpiece.

The two conductive springs 22 are electrically connected to the wires through the conductive terminals, and the wires are connected to the oil pressure switch buffer device I 18 or the oil pressure switch buffer device II 19. The electromagnets 14 in the corresponding directions are electrically connected in the same circuit, so that the insulating block 20 in the oil pressure switch buffer device Ⅰ18 or the oil pressure switch buffer device Ⅱ19 contacts the two U-shaped conductive sheets 21, and the electromagnets 14 in the corresponding directions of the oil pressure switch buffer device Ⅰ18 or the oil pressure switch buffer device Ⅱ19 are energized to generate a magnetic attraction force on the magnetic block 17. A spring Ⅲ189 is provided between the piston Ⅱ187 and the sealing plug Ⅱ183. By utilizing the elastic force of the spring Ⅲ189, under normal conditions, the U-shaped conductive sheet 21 always tends to be close to but not in contact with the conductive spring sheet 22.

[0069] When in use, when the riveting cylinder 7 drives the riveting gun 6 to send the nut 13 to be riveted into the riveting hole, a hole position deviation occurs, and when the difference between the inner and outer hole diameters of the nut 13 to be riveted is large, the guide shaft 601 is used for guidance, such as Fig.23 As shown, as the riveting gun 6 continues to move downward, until the bottom of the nut 13 to be riveted contacts the surface of the workpiece, as shown in FIG. Fig.24 As shown, due to the large difference in the inner and outer diameters of the nut 13 to be riveted, if the technical solution of the second embodiment is still used, the nut 13 to be riveted cannot be sent into the riveting hole. In this case, in the third embodiment, the guide shaft 601 is Figure 22 to Figure 23During the movement of the rivet gun 6, the horizontal movement in one direction will cause the guide sleeve Ⅰ402 or the guide sleeve Ⅱ502 to push the impacted head to move to one side, and the impacted head drives the push shaft 185 and the piston Ⅰ184 to move the compression spring Ⅱ186. The inner diameter of the inner cavity where the piston Ⅰ184 is located is greater than the inner diameter of the inner cavity where the piston Ⅱ187 is located. The oil pressure in the chamber between the piston Ⅰ184 and the piston Ⅱ187 increases, and part of the high-viscosity thickened oil on one side of the piston Ⅰ184 flows through the throttle hole on the piston Ⅱ187, and the other part pushes the piston Ⅱ187 to drive the linkage shaft 188 to move toward the sealing plug Ⅱ183, so that the U-shaped conductive sheet 21 contacts the two conductive spring sheets 22, such as Fig.25 As shown, the circuit where the electromagnet 14 is located is energized, generating a magnetic attraction force on the magnetic block 17, so that the riveting gun 6 can continue to move, that is, Fig.24 The state shown moves to Fig.26 The state shown ensures that the nut can enter the riveting hole of the workpiece to complete the riveting work. After the riveting is completed, the guide shaft 601 is separated from the nut 13 to be riveted, and the elastic force of the spring III 189 is used to reset the piston II 187, and the U-shaped conductive sheet 21 is separated from the insulating block 20. The corresponding electromagnet 14 is then powered off, and at the same time, the elastic force of the spring II 186 pushes the piston I 184 to reset in preparation for the riveting of the next nut. Compared with the second embodiment, the hole position deviation can be compensated for different nuts, and the hole position deviation compensation effect is better.
