Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of electronic connector manufacturing technology, specifically to a rectangular connector and its assembly tooling. Background Technology
[0002] In the current electronics manufacturing industry, rectangular connectors, as key components for connecting circuits, directly affect the performance and production cost of the entire electronic product through their quality and assembly efficiency. However, the traditional rectangular connector assembly process presents numerous challenges. On the one hand, because rectangular connectors typically contain multiple precision structures, these structures require extremely high alignment accuracy and stable pressure control during assembly to ensure the connector's electrical performance and mechanical strength. On the other hand, traditional assembly methods rely heavily on manual operation, which is not only inefficient but also makes it difficult to guarantee assembly consistency and reliability. Especially in large-scale production environments, errors and fatigue from manual operation can easily lead to connector quality problems, thereby affecting the performance of the entire electronic product.
[0003] Furthermore, with the increasing miniaturization and integration of electronic products, the size of rectangular connectors is also shrinking, which places higher demands on assembly processes.

[0034] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0035] Please see Figure 1-15 The present invention provides a technical solution: a rectangular connector and its assembly fixture, including an assembly fixture 1, an assembly system for which an assembly system is provided, and a fully automated assembly process is achieved by pre-inputting a program into the assembly system to control the assembly fixture to assemble the rectangular connector 2.
[0036] The rectangular connector 2 includes a housing 3 and a cover plate 6. The housing 3 has symmetrically arranged lower insertion holes 4 at both ends and symmetrically arranged side grooves 5 on both sides of the lower insertion holes 4. The cover plate 6 has symmetrically arranged upper insertion holes 7 at both ends. The lower insertion holes 4 and the upper insertion holes 7 are vertically aligned from top to bottom. The upper insertion holes 7 have symmetrically arranged groove guide blocks 8 on both sides. The groove guide blocks 8 match the side grooves 5. The lower insertion holes 4 and the upper insertion holes 7 are connected by inserting guide pins 9. Several seat holes 10 with staggered positions are arranged between the two lower insertion holes 4. Several guide grooves 11 are arranged between the two upper insertion holes 7. Guide rods 12 can be detachably installed on the seat holes 10.
[0037] The assembly steps for the entire rectangular connector 2 are as follows: First, fix the housing 3 in the preset position;
[0038] The second step is to insert the guide pin 9 into the lower insertion hole 4 and confirm that the guide pin 9 is secure.
[0039] The third step is to insert the guide rods 12 into the seat holes 10 one by one, and confirm the firmness of the guide rods 12.
[0040] The fourth step is to align and snap the cover plate 6 with the housing 3 together, so that the guide rod 12 passes through the guide groove 11, thus completing all the assembly steps of the rectangular connector 2.
[0041] All four steps are performed on assembly fixture 1. The use of automated assembly and precision testing mechanisms greatly reduces manual intervention, increases assembly speed, and is suitable for mass production.
[0042] The guide rod 12 has an elastic structure in the rod body area, which can both allow the guide rod 12 to pass through the guide groove 11 and ensure that the guide rod 12 restricts its own position and increases the strength of the guide rod 12 after passing through the guide groove 11.
[0043] The assembly fixture 1 includes a frame 13. A moving component 14 is provided in the top middle area of the frame 13. The moving component 14 includes a first motor 15 fixedly mounted on the frame 13. A gear assembly is fixedly mounted on the output end of the first motor 15. A conveyor belt assembly 16 is fixedly mounted on the output end of the gear assembly. A slot 17 is provided above the conveyor belt assembly 16 so that the clamping plate 18 provided on the conveyor belt assembly 16 has space to be assembled.
[0044] Both the gear assembly and the conveyor belt assembly 16 are existing technology structures and will not be described in detail in this embodiment;
[0045] The specifications of the clamping plate 18 match those of the housing 3. The housing 3 is placed in the clamping plate 18 by the robotic arm assembly 19 located on one side of the frame 13. The top surface of the clamping plate 18 is provided with a groove 20 for fixing the housing 3. The housing 3 is positioned by the groove 20, thereby ensuring the smooth assembly of the rectangular connector 2.
[0046] The robotic arm assembly 19 includes a protective shell 21 fixedly mounted on a frame 13. A vertical rail 22 is fixedly mounted inside the protective shell 21. A support frame 23 is slidably mounted on the vertical rail 22. A second motor 24 is fixedly mounted on the top of the support frame 23. An arm 25 is fixedly mounted on the output end of the second motor 24. A robotic arm 26 is provided at the end of the arm 25. A hydraulic press 27 is fixedly mounted on one side of the protective shell 21. The output end of the hydraulic press 27 faces upward and a top rod 28 is fixedly mounted. The top of the top rod 28 is fixed to the extension structure of the support frame 23. The function of the robotic arm 26 is to grasp the assembly parts of the rectangular connector 2 and assemble the various assembly parts into the rectangular connector 2.
[0047] The assembly system drives the hydraulic press 27 to operate, which in turn drives the push rod 28 to move up and down. The push rod 28 moves up and down, which in turn drives the support frame 23 to move up and down along the vertical track 22. This, in turn, drives the second motor 24 to move up and down, which in turn drives the arm 25 to move up and down, and then drives the robotic arm 26 to move up and down, thus realizing the function of the robotic arm 26 moving up and down. In conjunction with the second motor 24 driving the robotic arm 26 to rotate 360 degrees on the horizontal plane, the robotic arm 26 can move in multiple directions, ensuring that the robotic arm 26 can complete the gripping of assembly parts.
[0048] The robotic arm 26 includes a support block 29 fixedly installed at the end of the arm 25. A first track 30 is provided on each of the two side walls of the support block 29. A first sliding support 31 is slidably connected to each first track 30. A connecting rod 32 is fixedly installed at the bottom of each first sliding support 31. A support plate 33 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the two connecting rods 32. A suction cup 34 is fixedly installed in the middle area of the support plate 33. A slot 35 is provided in the middle area of the bottom of the suction cup 34. The specifications of the slot 35 match the top structure of the guide rod 12, allowing the guide rod 12 to pass through the slot 35. 5. The clamping rod is fixed on the suction cup 34. A set of clamping rod assemblies 36 is provided at both ends of the lower side of the support block 29. The clamping rod assembly 36 is a prior art structure, consisting of multiple metal rods and an electrically controlled bearing rod. It can be controlled and driven by the assembly system. A first metal seat 37 is fixedly installed at the end of the clamping rod assembly 36. A second track 38 is provided at the bottom of the first metal seat 37. A second metal seat 39 is slidably connected on the second track 38. The initial position of the second metal seat 39 is in the area that does not protrude from the first metal seat 37, so that the first metal seat 37 can contact the guide rod 12 in advance.
[0049] The gripping process of the seat housing 3: When gripping the seat housing 3, the assembly system drives the clamping rod assembly 36 to move upward, so that the clamping rod assembly 36 is at its highest position, which makes it easy for the suction cup 34 to contact the seat housing 3. The bottom of the suction cup 34 is fixedly installed with an electromagnet structure, which does not extend into the slot 35. The assembly system drives the suction cup 34 to electromagnetically attract the seat housing 3 and transport the seat housing 3 to the clamping plate 18.
[0050] The gripping process of cover plate 6 is the same as that of seat housing 3, and both are controlled by the assembly system.
[0051] Guide rod 12 gripping process: When gripping guide rod 12, the assembly system drives the clamping rod assembly 36 to move upward, so that the clamping rod assembly 36 is at its highest position, which makes it easy for the suction cup 34 to contact the guide rod 12. The assembly system drives the suction cup 34 to move to the top of the guide rod 12, and then drives the first sliding support 31 to descend along the first track 30, which in turn drives the connecting rod 32 to descend, and then drives the support plate 33 to descend. The descent of the support plate 33 drives the suction cup 34 to descend. The descent of the suction cup 34 moves the slot 35 down, so that the guide rod 12 is inserted into the slot 35, and then the guide rod 12 is clamped and fixed for the first time.
[0052] The assembly system drives the clamping rod assembly 36 to move downward, causing the first metal seat 37 and the second metal seat 39 to move downward until the first metal seat 37 first contacts the guide rod 12, clamping and fixing the guide rod 12 for the second time. The part of the first metal seat 37 that contacts the guide rod 12 is located above the top of the elastic structure. At this time, the assembly system drives the second metal seat 39 to move along the second track 38 towards the guide rod 12, applying pressure to the elastic structure. If the elastic structure deforms and the deformation process is normal, the assembly system determines that the guide rod 12 is qualified and resets the second metal seat 39 for testing the next guide rod 12. The qualification of the elastic structure of the guide rod 12 is determined by the running power of the second metal seat 39 along the second track 38 obtained by the assembly system. If the running power of the second metal seat 39 along the second track 38 is not within the preset value range, it means that the elastic structure is unqualified.
[0053] Before the frame 13 is gripped and assembled, the housing 3, guide pin 9, guide rod 12, and cover plate 6 are all loaded in the matching storage box and are all placed in the assembly direction. The elastic structure part of the guide rod 12 is on the lower side, which makes it easy for the robotic arm assembly 19 to grip.
[0054] By inspecting the guide rod 12 during the gripping process, we can prevent the insertion of a guide rod 12 with an unqualified elastic structure into the seat hole 10, which would lead to unqualified assembly of the rectangular connector 2. The purpose of inspecting the elastic structure is that the elastic structure material is easily damaged and has low hardness. We need to ensure that the elastic structure of each guide rod 12 installed in the seat hole 10 is qualified.
[0055] The gripping process of guide pin 9 and guide rod 12 is the same, both controlled by the assembly system. Through precise positioning and assembly processes, the accurate installation of each component of rectangular connector 2 is ensured, improving the overall quality and stability of rectangular connector 2.
[0056] The frame 13 is sequentially equipped with a first detection component 41, a second detection component 47, a third detection component 54, and a fourth detection component 63 according to the assembly line sequence. The first detection component 41 includes a first metal frame 42 fixedly mounted on the frame 13. A first telescopic rod 43 is mounted on the first metal frame 42. A first metal plate 44 is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the first telescopic rod 43. Conduits 45 are provided at each of the four corners of the first metal plate 44. A fan 46 is mounted on the first metal frame 42. The fan 46 is connected to the conduits 45 using a telescopic flexible hose. The specifications of the first metal plate 44 match the specifications of the clamping plate 18. The assembly system drives the fan. When the fan 46 is running, the air blows through the duct 45 and cleans the four corners of the groove 20 on the clamping plate 18. The high-pressure air is used to clean the four corners first to facilitate the dust adsorption process later. Before installing the seat housing 3 into the groove 20, the clamping plate 18 needs to be cleaned to ensure that the seat housing 3 is stably installed in the groove 20. The assembly system drives the first telescopic rod 43 to move the duct 45 up and down, so that when the duct 45 needs to clean the groove 20, it can come into close contact with the groove. When the duct 45 does not need to be used to clean the groove 20, the height of the duct 45 is raised to facilitate the movement of the clamping plate 18.
[0057] The second detection component 47 includes a second metal frame 48 fixedly mounted on the frame 13. A second telescopic rod 49 is provided on the second metal frame 48. A second metal plate 50 is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the second telescopic rod 49. An adhesive structure 51 is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the second metal plate 50. The adhesive structure 51 consists of a metal block installed on the bottom of the second metal plate 50 and an adhesive layer attached to the sidewalls and bottom of the metal block. The specifications of the adhesive structure 51 match the specifications of the clamping plate 18. Short tubes 52 protruding from the second metal plate 50 are evenly arranged around the adhesive structure 51. The rotation angle of the short tubes 52 can be controlled by the assembly system. A pump 53 is installed on the second metal frame 48. The pump 53 is connected to the short tubes 52. The assembly system drives the pump 53 to operate and test the already... Dust is adsorbed on the clamping plate 18 after being cleaned by the fan 46. At this time, the short tube 52 faces the clamping plate 18. Then, the second telescopic rod 49 is driven to descend, causing the adhesive structure 51 to extend into the groove 20 to adhere impurities to the groove 20 and clean the groove 20 again. When the short tube 52 does not need to adsorb the groove 20, the assembly system drives the short tube 52 to face the adhesive structure 51 to adsorb the adhesive structure 51, clean the surface of the adhesive structure 51 and extend the service life of the adhesive structure 51. The purpose of using the adhesive structure 51 is to maximize the cleaning of the groove 20. The assembly system drives the second telescopic rod 49 to move the adhesive structure 51 up and down so that the adhesive structure 51 does not affect the movement of the rectangular connector 2.
[0058] The portion of the short tube 52 that protrudes from the second metal plate 50 does not affect the treatment of the groove 20 by the adhesive structure 51;
[0059] The third detection component 54 includes a third metal frame 55 fixedly mounted on the frame 13. A first camera component 40 is mounted on the third metal frame 55. A third telescopic rod 56 is mounted on the third metal frame 55. A third metal plate 57 is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the third telescopic rod 56. A detection cylinder 58 is mounted in the middle area of the bottom of the third metal plate 57. The bottom of the detection cylinder 58 is hollow, and a third track 59 is mounted on the inner wall of the detection cylinder 58. A second sliding support 60 is slidably connected to the third track 59. A fourth telescopic rod 61 is fixedly mounted on the second sliding support 60. A clamping plate 62 is fixedly mounted at the end of the fourth telescopic rod 61. The assembly system drives the third telescopic rod 56 to descend, which in turn drives the third metal plate 57 to descend, and then drives the detection cylinder 58 to descend until the detection cylinder 58 has been installed. The guide rod 12 is framed in the housing 3. Then, the assembly system drives the fourth telescopic rod 61 to extend and move the clamping plate 62 until the clamping plate 62 clamps the elastic structure of the guide rod 12. Then, the assembly system drives the second sliding support 60 to move upward along the third track 59 and move the fourth telescopic rod 61 upward. Finally, it moves the guide rod 12, which is clamped and fixed by the clamping plate 62, upward. During this upward movement, the assembly system drives the second sliding support 60 to move upward with a preset power value. If the first camera component 40 detects that the guide rod 12 does not move upward under the preset power value, it indicates that the guide rod 12 and the seat hole 10 are firmly connected. The assembly system drives the third telescopic rod 56 to move and move the detection cylinder 58 up and down so that the detection cylinder 58 does not affect the movement of the rectangular connector 2.
[0060] When the clamping plate 62 holds the elastic structure, the pressure sensor on the clamping plate 62 obtains the pressure value F. The assembly system obtains the value F in real time. The assembly system has a preset rated pressure value L. If the value of F is greater than L, it means that the elastic structure is in a compressed state. The elastic structure in a compressed state cannot perform the spring-pressing action. Therefore, the pressure value between the clamping plate 62 and the elastic structure is large. The introduction of the pressure value ensures that the rectangular connector 2 is still qualified after being tested by simulating the external pressure environment during the assembly process, thus improving the accuracy of the test.
[0061] The fourth detection component 63 includes a fourth metal frame 64 fixedly mounted on the frame 13. A second camera component 65 is mounted on the fourth metal frame 64. A fifth telescopic rod 66 is mounted on the fourth metal frame 64. A fourth metal plate 67 is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the fifth telescopic rod 66. Two slots 68 are symmetrically arranged on the fourth metal plate 67, and a slot 69 is provided between the two slots 68 for the guide rod 12 to pass through. A sixth telescopic rod 70 is installed on the inner wall of the slot 68. The assembly system drives the fifth telescopic rod 66 to descend, which in turn drives the fourth metal plate 67 to descend until it is flush with the top of the cover plate 6. Until the surface makes contact, the guide pin 9 also passes through the slot 68. The assembly system drives the sixth telescopic rod 70 to extend until the sixth telescopic rod 70 applies pressure to the guide pin 9. The second camera component 65 monitors the guide pin 9 in real time. If the guide pin 9 shakes, it means that the guide pin 9 is installed firmly. If the second camera component 65 detects that the guide pin 9 does not shake, the assembly system drives the fifth telescopic rod 66 to rise, which in turn drives the sixth telescopic rod 70 to rise to the upper area of the guide pin 9. The above detection process is repeated. The firmness of the guide pin 9 is judged by the detection results of the two detections of the guide pin 9 at different heights.
