[0010] As a further preferred embodiment, the feeding mechanism also includes a support plate three, with two support plates three connected to the bracket. Two synchronous shafts are rotatably connected between the two support plates three, one of which is driven by a servo motor.

Detailed Implementation

[0031] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments. It should also be noted that, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, terms such as: setting, installing, connecting, and linking should be interpreted broadly.

[0032] Example 1: An automated molding equipment for manufacturing one-piece inductors, referenced Figures 1-10 The system includes a fixed box 1, vertical rods 2, a lifting box 3, a hydraulic cylinder 31, a rotating shaft 4, a drive mechanism, a rotating frame 5, sliding columns 6, a lower mold 7, an upper mold 70, a lifting mechanism, a moving column 8, a docking plate 9, a slider 91, and a feed pipe 10. Four vertical rods 2 are welded to the top of the fixed box 1, and the lifting box 3 is slidably connected between the four vertical rods 2. A hydraulic cylinder 31 is bolted to the right side of the fixed box 1. The movable rod of the hydraulic cylinder 31 is connected to the lifting box 3, driving the lifting box 3 to rise and fall. Both the fixed box 1 and the lifting box 3 are rotatably connected to a rotating shaft 4 driven by the drive mechanism. A cross-shaped rotating frame 5 is connected to the middle of each rotating shaft 4. Four sliding columns 6 are slidably connected to each rotating frame 5. Compression springs are fixedly connected between each sliding column 6 and the adjacent rotating frame 5. A lower mold 7 is installed at the end of each sliding column 6 in the fixed box 1, and an upper mold 70 is installed at the end of each sliding column 6 in the lifting box 3. Openings are located at the top of the fixed box 1 and the bottom of the lifting box 3. The placement hole, the fixed box 1, and the lifting box 3 are equipped with a lifting mechanism for pushing the lower mold 7 and the upper mold 70 to the placement hole; a movable column 8 driven by a two-dimensional platform is provided above the fixed box 1. The two-dimensional platform includes a second support plate 81, an electric slide rail 82, and a guide rail 83. The second support plate 81 is bolted to the front of the fixed box 1, and the electric slide rail 82 is connected to the top of the second support plate 81. The guide rail 83 is installed on the electric slide rail 82, and the movable column 8 is slidably connected to the guide rail 83. The guide rail 83 is installed on the guide rail 83. There is a lead screw motor for driving the moving column 8 to slide back and forth; the moving column 8 has four sets of molding holes 801 and four sets of feeding holes 802 that are connected to the molding holes 801 one by one; the top of the fixed box 1 is provided with a pair of sliding sliders 91 that slide left and right; a docking plate 9 is fixedly connected between the two sliders 91; the docking plate 9 slides back and forth on the moving column 8; a set of through holes 90 is opened on the docking plate 9; and a feeding pipe 10 for introducing metal powder is connected to the right side of the through holes 90 on the docking plate 9.

[0033] refer to Figure 2 , Figure 9 and Figure 10The drive mechanism includes a support plate 41, a fixed rod 42, a translation block 43, a telescopic rod 44, an electric push rod 45, a push block 46, a cylinder 47, and a protrusion 472. The support plate 41 is bolted to the rear side of the fixed box 1. The fixed rod 42 is welded to the rear side of both the fixed box 1 and the lifting box 3. The fixed rod 42 is equipped with a translation block 43 that slides back and forth. The telescopic rod 44 is fixedly connected between the two translation blocks 43. The telescopic rod 44 can extend and retract to adapt to the lifting process of the lifting box 3. The electric push rod 45 is bolted to the top of the support plate 41. The push block 46 is connected to the movable rod of the electric push rod 45. The push block 46 is connected to the lower end of the telescopic rod 44. The rear end of the rotating shaft 4 is fixedly connected to a cylinder 47. The cylinder 47 is provided with a spiral groove 471. The two translation blocks 43 are respectively fitted onto the two cylinders 47. The translation blocks 43 are connected to a protrusion 472 located in the adjacent spiral groove 471.

[0034] refer to Figures 3-5 The lifting mechanism includes a fixed sleeve 71, a second hydraulic cylinder 72, and a top block 73. Fixed sleeves 71 with fixed positions are fixedly connected to the front and rear sides of the fixed box 1 and the lifting box 3. The top of the fixed sleeve 71 in the fixed box 1 and the bottom of the fixed sleeve 71 in the lifting box 3 are bolted with the second hydraulic cylinder 72. The moving rod of the second hydraulic cylinder 72 is connected with the top block 73.

[0035] Initially, the movable rods of hydraulic cylinder 72 are in the extended state. The lower top block 73 lifts the uppermost lower mold 7 onto the placement hole of the fixed box 1, and the upper top block 73 lifts the lowermost upper mold 70 onto the placement hole of the lifting box 3. The corresponding two compression springs are in the compressed state. A wire guide 100 has been placed on the lower mold 7 at the placement hole. The last set of molding holes 801 is located directly above the wire guide 100, and the four through holes 90 are aligned with the four feed holes 802 on the last side.

[0036] The hydraulic cylinder 31 drives the lifting box 3 to descend, causing the internal components of the lifting box 3 to descend as a whole. The upper mold 70 at the placement hole descends above the set of molding holes 801. Metal powder is introduced through the feed pipe 10 via the external metal powder adding device. The metal powder fills the set of molding holes 801 through the through hole 90 and the feed hole 802. The upper mold 70 at the placement hole extends into the set of molding holes 801. With the cooperation of the upper mold 70 and the lower mold 7, the metal powder in the molding holes 801 is pressed, thereby embedding the windings on the lead frame 100 into the metal powder. Finally, the hydraulic cylinder 31 drives the lifting box 3 and its internal components to rise as a whole. The electric slide rail 82 drives the guide rail 83 and the moving column 8 to move to the right, causing the docking plate 9 and the slider 91 to move to the right, so that the lead frame 100 can be taken out.

[0037] When it is necessary to replace the lower mold 7 and upper mold 70 with different specifications, the movable rod of the hydraulic cylinder 72 is shortened, causing the two top blocks 73 to move away from each other. The top blocks 73 no longer press against the uppermost lower mold 7 and the lowermost upper mold 70, and the corresponding compression springs return to their original positions. The lower mold 7 and the upper mold 70 then leave the placement hole. The movable rod of the electric push rod 45 is shortened by one-quarter of the pitch of the spiral groove 471, causing the push block 46, telescopic rod 44, two translation blocks 43, and protrusion 472 to move backward as a whole. Since the protrusion 472 is located inside the spiral groove 471, the two cylinders 47 can rotate 90 degrees with the cooperation of the protrusion 472 and the spiral groove 471. The rotating shaft 4, rotating frame 5, and sliding column 6 rotate together by 90 degrees. The four upper dies 70 rotate 90 degrees around the upper rotating shaft 4, and the four lower dies 7 rotate 90 degrees around the lower rotating shaft 4, thus changing the positions of the four upper dies 70 and the four lower dies 7. Similarly, the movable rod of the electric push rod 45 shortens by one-quarter of the pitch again, and the four upper dies 70 and the four lower dies 7 rotate 90 degrees again, changing their positions once more. In this way, by controlling the shortening length of the movable rod of the electric push rod 45, the rotating shaft 4 can be controlled to rotate by 90 degrees, 180 degrees, 270 degrees, or 360 degrees, thereby changing the lower dies 7 and upper dies 70 of different specifications.

[0038] Then, the control screw motor drives the moving column 8 to move backward, and the corresponding docking plate 9 slides forward on the moving column 8, so that the four through holes 90 are aligned with another set of feed holes 802, which can accommodate different specifications of molding holes 801. After the positions of the upper mold 70, lower mold 7 and moving column 8 are adjusted, the control hydraulic cylinder 2 72 extends the movable rod, and the two top blocks 73 move closer to each other. The lower top block 73 pushes the uppermost lower mold 7 into the placement hole of the fixed box 1, and the upper top block 73 pushes the lowermost upper mold 70 into the placement hole of the lifting box 3. At this time, molding operations of different specifications of wire frame 100 can be performed quickly. The replacement of upper mold 70 and lower mold 7 is automated, with a high degree of automation and work efficiency.

[0039] Example 2: Based on Example 1, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 11 and Figure 12The automated molding equipment for manufacturing integral inductors also includes a feeding mechanism for conveying the lead frame 100. The feeding mechanism includes a bracket 111 and a robotic arm 112. The bracket 111 is bolted to the left side of the fixed box 1. The robotic arm 112 is installed on the top of the bracket 111. An electric gripper is installed on the end platform of the robotic arm 112. The structure of the robotic arm 112 and the electric gripper is existing technology. The feeding mechanism also includes a support plate 113, a synchronous shaft 114 and a conveyor belt 115. Two support plates 113 are welded to the front side of the bracket 111. Two synchronous shafts 114 are rotatably connected between the two support plates 113. The synchronous shaft 114 on the rear side is driven by a servo motor. Two conveyor belts 115 are wound between the two synchronous shafts 114. Multiple protrusions 116 are provided at intervals on the conveyor belts 115.

[0040] Two protrusions 116 aligned on the left and right sides form a pair. The wire guide frame 100 is placed on two conveyor belts 115, with the wire guide frame 100 positioned between two adjacent pairs of protrusions 116. The protrusions 116 limit the wire guide frame 100, and the servo motor drives the synchronous shaft 114 to rotate, causing the conveyor belt 115 to rotate. The conveyor belt 115 transports the wire guide frame 100 backward. The position of the electric gripper is controlled by the robotic arm 112, and the electric gripper grabs the wire guide frame 100 on the conveyor belt 115 and transports it to the upper mold 70 for molding. After molding, the electric gripper is controlled by the robotic arm 112 to remove the wire guide frame 100, thus automating the feeding process.

[0041] Example 3: Based on Example 2, refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 11 , Figure 12 and Figure 13 The automated molding equipment for integral inductor manufacturing also includes a straightening mechanism, which includes a slide rod 121, a straightening plate 122, a connecting shaft 123, an extrusion roller 124, a fixed cylinder 125, and a contact rod 126. Each support plate 113 is equipped with a pair of slide rods 121 that slide left and right. A return spring is fixedly connected between the slide rods 121 and the support plate 113. A straightening plate 122 is fixedly connected between the ends of each pair of slide rods 121 closest to the conveyor belt 115. Connecting shafts 126 are welded to both ends of the front synchronous shaft 114. 23. Each of the connecting shafts 123 is fixedly connected to a pressing wheel 124. The sides of the two pressing wheels 124 that are close to each other are both inclined surfaces 1240. The front ends of the straightening plates 122 that are far apart from each other are both welded to a fixing cylinder 125. Each fixing cylinder 125 is slidably connected to a contact rod 126 that contacts the inclined surface 1240. A return spring is fixedly connected between the contact rod 126 and the fixing cylinder 125. The elastic coefficient of the return spring is greater than that of the reset spring. Damping is provided at the sliding connection between the contact rod 126 and the fixing cylinder 125.

[0042] When the synchronous shaft 114 rotates, the connecting shaft 123 and the extrusion wheel 124 rotate together with the synchronous shaft 114. The inclined surface 1240 of the extrusion wheel 124 intermittently presses against the contact rod 126. When the extrusion wheel 124 presses against the contact rod 126, the two fixed cylinders 125 move closer to each other, causing the two straightening plates 122 to move closer to each other. The return spring is compressed, and the two straightening plates 122 correct the position of the guide frame 100 on the conveyor belt 115, making the guide frame 100 centered left and right, so that the electric clamp can be used. The claw grips the conductor frame 100. When the squeezing wheel 124 does not squeeze the contact rod 126, the straightening plate 122 is reset under the action of the return spring, so that the next conductor frame 100 can move between the two straightening plates 122. If a conductor frame 100 with a wider width is replaced, after the two straightening plates 122 that are close to each other come into contact with the conductor frame 100, the contact rod 126 can retract into the fixed cylinder 125. With the cooperation of the return spring and the damping, the straightening plate 122 has a certain degree of positional adaptability.

[0043] Example 4: Based on Example 3, refer to Figure 11 and Figure 12 The automated molding equipment for manufacturing one-piece inductors also includes a cleaning mechanism. The cleaning mechanism includes a fixed plate 131, an upper cleaning wheel 132, and a lower cleaning wheel 133. Two fixed plates 131 are bolted to each of the support plates 113. The upper cleaning wheel 132 is installed between the two fixed plates 131 on the front side, and the lower cleaning wheel 133 is installed between the two fixed plates 131 on the rear side. A drive motor for driving the upper cleaning wheel 132 and the lower cleaning wheel 133 to rotate is installed on the support plate 113.

[0044] When the conveyor belt 115 transports the wire frame 100 backward, the control drive motor drives the upper cleaning wheel 132 and the lower cleaning wheel 133 to rotate. The upper cleaning wheel 132 cleans the top surface of the wire frame 100, and the lower cleaning wheel 133 cleans the bottom surface of the wire frame 100 to prevent dust on the surface of the wire frame 100 from affecting the molding work and to ensure the cleanliness of the wire frame surface.

[0045] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in the present invention should be included within the scope of protection of the present invention.
