[0024] Reference Figure 1-4 The present invention discloses an automatic feeding cable terminal riveting device, which includes a riveting die 20, a driving mechanism 30 and a feeding mechanism 40 installed on a frame 10. The riveting die 20 is provided with a riveting space and a threading space 52 located in front of the riveting space. The driving mechanism 30 is connected to the riveting die 20, and the feeding mechanism 40 is arranged on one side of the riveting die 20.

[0025] During operation, the bulk terminals 60 are placed in the feeding mechanism 40, and the terminals 60 are arranged and transported to the riveting die 20 through the feeding mechanism 40. The riveting die 20 moves the terminals 60 to the riveting space, and the cables with the stripped insulation layer are manually inserted into the terminals 60 through the threading space 52. The riveting die 20 is driven by the driving mechanism 30 to operate, so that the riveting die 20 presses the terminals 60, thereby riveting and fixing the cables and the terminals.

[0026] As shown in the above structure, the terminal block 60 can be accurately placed in the riveting space through the feeding mechanism 40 and the riveting mold 20. It only needs to manually insert the cable to perform riveting, and there is no need to manually load and place the terminal block 60. This can ensure that the terminal block 60 is accurately placed and reduce the defective rate of the product. The terminal block 60 is automatically loaded, which can reduce manual work, reduce labor intensity, and improve production efficiency.

[0027] In this embodiment, the feeding mechanism 40 includes a vibrating discharger 41 and a direct vibrating feeder 42, and the direct vibrating feeder 42 is located between the vibrating discharger 41 and the riveting die 20. The bulk terminals are neatly arranged and output by the vibrating discharger 41, and the terminals can be moved from the outlet end of the vibrating discharger 41 to the riveting die 20 by the direct vibrating feeder 42.

[0028] In some embodiments, the discharge port of the vibration discharger 41 can be directly connected to the riveting die 20 .

[0029] In this embodiment, the riveting die includes a die seat 21, an upper knife seat 22, an upper pressing knife 23, a lower pressing knife 24, a pusher block 25, a first slide 26 and a pusher 27. The upper knife seat 22 is slidably mounted on the die seat 21, and the upper knife seat 22 is connected to the driving mechanism 30, the upper pressing knife 23 is fixedly arranged on the upper knife seat 22, the lower pressing knife 24 is arranged below the upper pressing knife 23, the riveting space is located between the upper pressing knife 23 and the lower pressing knife 24, the pusher block 25 is located at the rear side of the riveting space, and the pusher block 25 is slidably connected to the first slide 26, the pusher 27 is installed on the first slide 26, and the pusher block 25 is connected to the pusher block 25 through a floating joint 28.

The pusher 27 drives the push block 25 to move forward to push the terminal to the riveting space. At this time, the push block 25 is located on the side of the feed port 261 to block the remaining terminals; the cable is manually inserted into the terminal through the threading space 52; the driving mechanism 30 drives the upper knife seat 22 to move downward so that the upper pressing knife 23 presses on the terminal, and the terminal is pressed by the cooperation of the upper pressing knife 23 and the lower pressing knife 24.

[0031] In this embodiment, the top of the lower pressing knife 24 has a riveting portion 241, the bottom of the upper pressing knife 23 has two spaced-apart pushing portions 231, and a riveting groove 232 for accommodating the riveting portion 241 is provided between the two pushing portions 231. With this structure, when the upper pressing knife 23 moves downward, the riveting portion 241 can be placed in the riveting groove 232, thereby preventing the terminal from being offset and ensuring accurate positioning of the terminal.

[0032] In this embodiment, side guard plates 242 are slidably mounted on both sides of the riveting and pressing part 241 on the lower pressing knife 24, the top edge of the side guard plates 242 is higher than the top edge of the riveting and pressing part 241, and a spring member 243 is provided at the bottom of the side guard plates 242.

When the pusher block 25 pushes the terminal to the riveting and pressing space, the side guard plates 242 limit the two sides of the terminal to prevent the terminal from being offset, ensuring that the terminal is accurately positioned; when the upper pressing knife 23 moves downward, the side guard plates 242 are pushed downward by the pushing part 231 to ensure that the riveting and pressing can be carried out smoothly.

[0033] In this embodiment, a cable guide plate 29 is provided on the front side of the lower pressing knife 24, and a threading space 52 is provided on the cable guide plate 29. The threading space 52 is through-connected from front to back and open at the top, so that it is convenient for manual insertion of the cable to be inserted into the terminal.

[0034] In this embodiment, the driving mechanism 30 includes a bracket 31, a motor 32, a second slide 33, a cam member 34, a slider 35 and a swing arm 36.
