Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of wire processing equipment, and in particular to a double-wire inserting machine. Background Technology

[0002] Existing electronic products all involve connection lines between electronic components and circuit boards. These connection lines can be directly plugged in and are very convenient to use. Their structure usually includes wires and housings. One end of the wire has solder and the other end has a terminal. The terminal is inserted into the housing, thus forming the connection line.

[0003] Since connecting wires need to go through multiple processes such as wire stripping, wire cutting, terminal crimping, and inserting shells, in order to reduce the amount of manual labor, there are more and more specialized equipment such as terminal crimping machines, wire stripping machines, and shell inserting machines to process connecting wires in different ways. However, this method requires multiple machines to process in steps, still requires a lot of manpower, and the workpiece needs to be transferred between different machines, which affects the processing accuracy, the production process is not smooth enough, and the processing efficiency is affected.

[0004] In existing technologies, the terminal angle of the wire needs to be adjusted before inserting the housing. This adjustment is usually done manually using semi-automatic equipment, which is inefficient, has a high defect rate, and poor accuracy. This can lead to the terminal not being properly inserted into the housing, resulting in housing position deviations and affecting the stability and reliability of subsequent connections. Furthermore, its low level of automation cannot meet the current needs of automated production.

[0005] Later, a cable termination and insertion machine appeared on the market. It uses multiple leveling mechanisms to level the entire cable. Although it can adjust the angle of the cable after termination, its method of leveling the entire cable has the following drawbacks. For example, it is labor-intensive, requiring comprehensive processing of the entire cable, which leads to a long time to complete the leveling. Secondly, it requires multiple sets of automated devices for leveling, which increases production costs and increases the overall size of the equipment. Space needs to be reserved inside the frame, resulting in a large footprint during subsequent use.

[0006] Therefore, a new technical solution needs to be researched to address the above problems. Summary of the Invention

[0126] The general working process of this embodiment is described in detail below:

[0127] First, the connecting wire is installed on the automatic feeding device 30. The automatic feeding device 30 moves the connecting wire to the two stripping mechanisms 42 for stripping. After stripping, the automatic feeding device 30 moves it to the first automatic end-cutting device 50, which performs the first end-cutting on one end of the stripped connecting wire. After end-cutting, the automatic feeding device 30 moves the end-cut connecting wire to the two wire-cutting mechanisms 41. The automatic wire-pulling device 60 pulls the connecting wire, and then cuts it according to the length preset by the controller 200. After cutting, the automatic rear-transfer device 70 moves the cut connecting wire... The wire is sent to the first automatic terminal cutting device 50, where the second automatic terminal cutting device 80 performs a second terminal cutting on the wire that was cut at the first terminal cutting point. After the second terminal cutting is completed, the automatic rear translation device 70 moves the wire to the terminal automatic flipping adjustment device to adjust the angle of the terminal on the second terminal cutting side. After the wire is adjusted, the housing at the housing automatic feeding device 120 is transported to the automatic housing separation assembly 116 via the housing transfer mechanism 114. Then, the automatic housing pushing assembly 115 pushes the wire to the housing fixing mechanism 117. Finally, the automatic transfer mechanism 113 moves the wire with the adjusted angle to the housing fixing mechanism 117 for housing insertion.

[0128] The key design feature of this invention lies in the fact that it achieves an integrated design of wire feeding, wire cutting, wire stripping, primary terminal crimping, secondary terminal crimping, and shell insertion through the cooperation of an automatic feeding device, an automatic wire cutting and stripping device, an automatic terminal crimping device, an automatic shell insertion and unloading device, and a shell automatic feeding device. This improves the degree of automation, reduces labor costs, and increases production efficiency. Furthermore, the reasonable arrangement on the frame reduces the overall space occupied by the equipment, and the structural design is reasonable and the layout is ingenious.

[0129] Secondly, through the structural design and cooperation between the pre-positioning device, the clamping assembly, and the rotary drive device, the rotary drive device is connected to the clamping assembly and drives the clamping assembly to rotate. In this way, the position of the terminal wire is pre-positioned, and the position of the terminal part is flipped and adjusted before the shell is inserted, ensuring the accuracy of the subsequent shell insertion position of the terminal part. It has a high degree of automation, greatly saves adjustment time, and thus improves production efficiency.

[0130] Finally, the design of the automatic detection device ensures that the first, second, and third automatic detection mechanisms work together to align the first and second automatic terminal cutting devices with the terminal ends of the wire, avoiding damage to the wire conductor due to inaccurate terminal cutting and improving the yield of wire production.

Therefore, any minor modifications, equivalent changes, and alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention shall still fall within the scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
