[0029] Some embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0030] See also Figure 1 The embodiment of the present application provides an assembly device 100, which includes a base 101, a feeding device 102, a conveying device 103, a transfer device 104 and a detection device 105. The assembly device 100 is used to assemble small parts into a carrier. For example, the small parts can be magnets, components, etc.

[0031] In order to facilitate understanding and explanation of this embodiment, a three-dimensional coordinate system is established in some drawings, and the first direction is Figure 1 The X-axis direction is shown, and the second direction is Figure 1 The Y-axis direction is shown, and the third direction is Figure 1 In the Z-axis direction shown, the first direction, the second direction and the third direction are perpendicular to each other.

[0032] See also Figure 1The feeding device 102 includes a feeding assembly 10, a pushing assembly 20 and a pressing assembly 30.

The conveying device 103 includes a bearing assembly 40, a support assembly 50 and a conveying assembly 60. The bearing assembly 40 and the support assembly 50 are arranged on the base 101 at intervals along the second direction. The bearing assembly 40 and the support assembly 50 are respectively used to carry the carrier to be assembled and the assembled carrier. The conveying assembly 60 is arranged on one side of the bearing assembly 40. The conveying assembly 60 is used to transfer the carrier from the bearing assembly 40 to the support assembly 50. The transfer device 104 includes a guide assembly 70 and a transfer assembly 80. The guide assembly 70 is arranged between the bearing assembly 40 and the pressing assembly 30 and is connected to the base 101. The guide assembly 70 is provided with a guide groove 71. The transfer assembly 80 is arranged on the base 101 adjacent to the guide assembly 70. The transfer assembly 80 is used to remove small pieces from the pressed material tray and insert them into the material tray along the third direction. Figure 8 The guiding groove 71 shown is used to guide the small piece, and is also used to assemble the guided small piece into the carrier carried by the carrying assembly 40. The detection device 105 is arranged on the base 101 adjacent to the support assembly 50, and the detection device 105 is used to detect the installation information of the assembled small piece. It can be understood that the installation information of the small piece mentioned above refers to the small piece being assembled to the preset area of ​​the carrier according to the preset direction. The guiding groove 71 is a conical groove, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the guiding groove 71 decreases along the direction of the pusher assembly 20 pointing to the base 101, so as to stably guide the small piece.

[0033] When the above-mentioned assembly equipment 100 is actually used, first, the pushing component 20 pushes the material tray carried by the feeding component 10 to the clamping component 30, and the clamping component 30 clamps the material tray; then the transfer component 80 removes the small parts from the clamped material tray and inserts the small parts into the guiding groove 71 along the third direction, so that the guiding groove 71 guides the small parts; then the transfer component 80 assembles the guided small parts into the carrier carried by the carrying component 40; finally, the conveying component 60 transfers the assembled carrier to the supporting component 50, so that the detection device 105 detects the installation information of the assembled small parts, thereby realizing the rapid completion of the assembly operation of the small parts and improving the assembly efficiency.

[0034] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3In some embodiments, the feeding assembly 10 includes a feeding member 11, a lifting member 12 and a limiting member 13. The feeding member 11 is arranged between the pushing assembly 20 and the pressing assembly 30 along the first direction and is slidably connected to the base 101 along the third direction. The feeding member 11 is provided with a receiving groove 111, a clamping groove 112 and a plurality of limiting grooves 113. The receiving groove 111 is used to receive a plurality of stacked material trays. The clamping groove 112 is arranged on the side of the feeding member 11 away from the pressing assembly 30. The plurality of limiting grooves 113 are arranged at intervals on the side wall of the feeding member 11 along the third direction. The lifting member 12 is arranged adjacent to the feeding member 11. The lifting member 12 is used to be inserted into the clamping groove 112 and drive the feeding member 11 to rise or fall. The limiting member 13 is arranged on one side of the feeding member 11 along the second direction and is connected to the base 101. The limiting member 13 is used to be inserted into one of the limiting grooves 113 to limit the feeding member 11.

[0035] In this way, by setting the above-mentioned feeding member 11 and lifting member 12, since the storage slot 111 accommodates multiple stacked material trays, after the pushing assembly 20 pushes the upper material tray to the clamping assembly 30, the lifting member 12 is inserted into the clamping slot 112 and drives the feeding member 11 to rise, so that the uppermost material tray among the remaining material trays corresponds to the pushing assembly 20, which is convenient for the pushing assembly 20 to repeatedly push the material tray to the clamping assembly 30, and realize the continuous feeding operation of the feeding assembly 10. In addition, by setting the above-mentioned limiting member 13, after the lifting member 12 drives the feeding member 11 to complete the height adjustment operation, the limiting member 13 is inserted into the limiting slot 113 to limit the feeding member 11, so that the feeding member 11 remains in a stably fixed state, and the feeding member 11 is prevented from shaking during the process of the pushing assembly 20 pushing the material tray, which is conducive to the pushing assembly 20 to stably push the material tray.

[0036] See also Figure 2 In this embodiment, the number of feeding components 10, pushing components 20 and pressing components 30 are multiple groups and correspond to each other. Multiple groups of feeding components 10 are arranged on the base 101 at intervals along the second direction, and each group of feeding components 10 is provided with corresponding pushing components 20 and corresponding pressing components 30 on both sides along the first direction. In this way, by setting multiple groups of feeding components 10, multiple groups of pushing components 20 and multiple groups of pressing components 30, multiple small parts of the same type or different types of small parts can be provided according to assembly requirements, so as to increase the number and types of small parts accommodated by the feeding component 10, avoid the operator frequently replenishing the tray and small parts stored in the feeding component 11, and thus improve the feeding efficiency. Among them, the above-mentioned multiple groups refer to two groups or more.

[0037] See also Figure 3 and Figure 4In this embodiment, the lifting member 12 includes a traverse body 121, a lifting body 122 and a clamping body 123. The traverse body 121 is disposed on one side of the feeding member 11 and connected to the lifting body 122. The clamping body 123 is adapted to the clamping groove 112 and connected to the lifting body 122. The clamping body 123 is used to move along the second direction under the drive of the traverse body 121 and to move along the third direction under the drive of the lifting body 122. For example, the traverse body 121 and the lifting body 122 can be cylinders, servo slides, etc.

[0038] In this way, by setting the specific structure of the lifting member 12, the transverse moving body 121 drives the clamping body 123 to move along the second direction, so that the clamping body 123 is respectively moved to one side of the corresponding feeding member 11 and clamped in the corresponding clamping groove 112, so that the lifting body 122 drives the clamping body 123 to drive the corresponding feeding member 11 to rise or fall, so that multiple groups of feeding components 10 can share the same lifting member 12 to complete the height adjustment operation of multiple feeding members 11, avoiding the setting of too many mechanical structures, reducing the use cost and optimizing the layout.

[0039] See also Figure 3 and Figure 5 In this embodiment, the limiting member 13 includes a fixed plate 131, a fixed block 132, a limiting body 133, a movable shaft 134, a connecting body 135, a limiting driving body 136, a first sensor 137 and a second sensor 138. The fixed plate 131 is arranged on one side of the feeding member 11 and connected to the base 101. The fixed plate 131 is provided with a sliding groove 1311. The fixed plate 131 is provided with a first position 1312 and a second position 1313 along the extension direction of the sliding groove 1311. The fixed block 132 is connected to the fixed plate 131. The position limiting body 133 is movably disposed in the direction of the fixed block 132 pointing to the feeding member 11 and is provided with an oblique groove 1331. The movable shaft 134 is movably disposed in the fixed block 132 and the oblique groove 1331 along the third direction. The connecting body 135 is slidably disposed in the sliding groove 1311 and connected to the movable shaft 134. The position limiting driving body 136 is connected to the connecting body 135. The first sensor 137 and the second sensor 138 are respectively disposed at the first position 1312 and the second position 1313 and are both electrically connected to the position limiting driving body 136. Exemplarily, the position limiting driving body 136 may be a cylinder, and the first sensor 137 and the second sensor 138 may be photoelectric sensors.

[0040] In this way, by setting the specific structure of the above-mentioned limit member 13, when the limit member 13 needs to be inserted into the limit groove 113, the limit driving body 136 drives the connecting body 135 and the movable shaft 134 to move to the first position 1312, the movable shaft 134 slides in the inclined groove 1331 and pushes the limit member 133 to extend out of the fixed block 132, and the limit member 133 is inserted in the limit groove 113 to limit the feeding member 11. When the limit member 13 needs to be separated from the limit groove 113, the limit driving body 136 drives the connecting body 135 and the movable shaft 134 to move to the second position 1313, and the movable shaft 134 slides in the inclined groove 1331 and pushes the limit member 133 to extend out of the fixed block 132. 3 is retracted to the fixed block 132, the limiting body 133 and the feeding member 11 are released from each other to be separated from the limiting groove 113, thereby realizing the limiting and loosening operation of the limiting member 13. In addition, the first sensor 137 and the second sensor 138 respectively sense the connecting body 135 moved to the first position 1312 and the second position 1313, and send an electrical signal to the limiting driving body 136, so that the limiting driving body 136 stops driving the connecting body 135 to continue to move after moving to the first position 1312 or the second position 1313, so as to ensure that the connecting body 135 drives the movable shaft 134 to stably push the limiting body 133 to extend or retract to the fixed block 132.

[0041] See also Figure 6 In some embodiments, the pusher assembly 20 includes a pusher drive member 21 and a pusher member 22. The pusher drive member 21 and the clamping assembly 30 are arranged on both sides of the feeding member 11 along the first direction and connected to the base 101. The pusher member 22 is connected to the pusher drive member 21. Exemplarily, the pusher drive member 21 can be a cylinder.

[0042] In this way, by setting the specific structure of the above-mentioned pushing assembly 20, the pushing driving member 21 drives the pushing member 22 to extend into the storage groove 111 and push the material tray to move to the clamping assembly 30, so as to quickly complete the material tray moving operation and thereby improve the feeding efficiency of the feeding assembly 10.

[0043] Please continue reading Figure 6In some embodiments, the clamping assembly 30 includes a fixing member 31 and a clamping member 32. The fixing member 31 is arranged on the side of the feeding assembly 10 away from the pushing assembly 20 and connected to the base 101. The fixing member 31 is provided with a receiving groove 311 and a material taking groove 312. The receiving groove 311 is used to receive the material tray removed from the feeding assembly 10. The material taking groove 312 is arranged on the side of the fixing member 31 away from the base 101 and communicated with the receiving groove 311. The material taking groove 312 is used for the transfer assembly 80 to pass through to remove small pieces. The clamping member 32 is movably arranged in the fixing member 31 along the third direction and extends to the receiving groove 311. The clamping member 32 and the material taking groove 312 are arranged correspondingly along the third direction. The clamping member 32 is used to support the material tray removed from the feeding assembly 10, and push the material tray to the bottom of the receiving groove 311 to press the material tray to the fixing member 31. Exemplarily, the clamping member 32 can be a clamping plate connected to a cylinder.

[0044] In this way, by setting the specific structure of the above-mentioned clamping assembly 30, the accommodating groove 311 receives the material tray removed from the feeding member 11, and the clamping member 32 moves toward the material taking groove 312 to press the material tray to the bottom of the accommodating groove 311, thereby fixing the material tray and preventing the material tray from shaking, making it easier for the transfer assembly 80 to pass through the material taking groove 312 to remove small pieces from the material tray.

[0045] Please continue reading Figure 6 In some embodiments, the clamping assembly 30 further includes a material moving member 33, which is connected to the fixing member 31. The material moving member 33 is used to move the material tray out of the accommodating slot 311 after the transfer assembly 80 removes the small pieces. Specifically, the material moving member 33 includes a material moving driving body 331, a material moving body 332 and a magnetic body 333. The material moving driving body 331 is disposed on the side wall of the fixing member 31 and connected to the material moving body 332. The magnetic body 333 is connected to the material moving body 332 and is used to magnetically attract the material tray. Exemplarily, the material moving driving body 331 can be a cylinder, and the magnetic body 333 can be any magnetic block, magnetic plate or similar magnetic sheet that can magnetically attract the material tray, such as a magnet sheet.

[0046] In this way, by setting the specific structure of the above-mentioned material moving member 33, when the transfer component 80 removes the small pieces in the material tray, the clamping member 32 drives the material tray to move away from the material taking slot 312, the material moving driving body 331 drives the material moving body 332 to drive the magnetic body 333 to move into the receiving slot 311, the magnetic body 333 absorbs the empty material tray, and the material moving driving body 331 then drives the magnetic body 333 to drive the material tray out of the receiving slot 311, so as to avoid the empty material tray affecting the subsequent clamping operation of the material tray carrying small pieces, which is beneficial for the clamping component 30 to repeat the clamping operation.

[0047] See also Figure 2In some embodiments, the feeding device 102 further includes an imaging component 90, which is disposed above the clamping component 30 and connected to the base 101, and is electrically connected to the transfer component 80, and is used to capture images of small items supported by the compressed tray. Specifically, the imaging component 90 includes an imaging drive 91, an imaging component 92, and a light source 93, wherein the imaging drive 91 is disposed on the base 101 and connected to the imaging component 92, and the imaging component 92 is electrically connected to the transfer component 80, and the imaging component 92 is driven by the imaging drive 91 to move above the corresponding fixing component 31 and acquire images of small items, and the light source 93 is spaced apart from the imaging component 92 and disposed on the imaging drive 91. Exemplarily, the imaging drive 91 may be a cylinder, a servo slide, etc., the imaging component 92 may be an industrial camera, and the light source 93 may be a surface light source.

[0048] In this way, by setting the specific structure of the above-mentioned imaging component 90, when one group of clamping components 30 in the multiple groups of clamping components 30 completes the clamping operation, the imaging drive component 91 drives the imaging component 92 to move to the top of the corresponding fixing component 31, and the light source 93 emits light toward the small parts in the material tray through the material trough 312 to improve the imaging environment of the imaging component 92. The imaging component 92 captures the image of the small parts supported by the clamped material tray to detect whether the small parts meet the assembly standards, and sends an electrical signal to the transfer component 80, so that the transfer component 80 moves the small parts that meet the assembly standards to the guide groove 71, and moves the small parts that do not meet the assembly standards to other storage areas.

[0049] It can be understood that the above-mentioned assembly standard means that the orientation and shape of the small parts meet the assembly requirements of the carrier.

[0050] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, the feeding device 102 further includes a receiving assembly 110, which is disposed on a side of the base 101 away from the pushing assembly 20 and connected to the base 101.
