Description

[0002] With the development of technology, smart glasses are becoming increasingly integrated into our daily lives. As wearable devices, smart glasses usually include frames and temples. Since the frames and temples usually have connecting wires, they need to be provided with connecting wires for circuit connection. During the production process of smart glasses, the connecting wires of the frame and temples need to be processed and supported by brackets. The brackets are fixed on both sides with adhesive layers. Both sides of the bracket need to be pre-set with adhesive layers and protected by protective films. When assembling the bracket, the protective films need to be torn off to expose the adhesive layers, and then the bracket is installed into the frame through the adhesive layers.

[0036] Please refer to Figures 1 to 9As shown, the present invention proposes a bracket assembly device 100 for installing a bracket of smart glasses. The upper and lower sides of the bracket are provided with an adhesive layer with a protective film. The bracket assembly device 100 includes a machine 1, a film tearing device 2 and a transfer device 3. The machine 1 is provided with a loading position 11 and an assembly position 12 set at intervals. The loading position 11 is used to place the bracket to be torn off, and the assembly position 12 is used to assemble the bracket on the product; the film tearing device 2 is provided on the machine 1 and is located between the loading position 11 and the assembly position 12. The film tearing device 2 includes a placing mechanism 21, a film tearing mechanism 22 and a pressing component 23 provided on the placing mechanism 21. The placing mechanism 21 is provided with a placing groove 214, and the placing groove 214 is used to place the bracket The pressing assembly 23 is provided with a movable pressing head 233, which is used to limit the bracket located in the placement groove 214, and a movable gap is provided between the pressing head 233 and the bracket. The placement mechanism 21 is provided with a first avoidance space 215 connected to the placement groove 214, and the pressing head 233 is provided with a second avoidance space 234. The film tearing mechanism 22 is used to tear the film on the lower side of the bracket through the first avoidance space 215, and to tear the film on the upper side of the bracket through the second avoidance space 234; the transfer device 3 is provided on the machine 1, and the transfer device 3 is provided with an adsorption head 313, which is used to adsorb the bracket. The transfer device 3 is used to transfer the bracket of the loading position 11 to the placement groove 214, and to transfer the bracket of the placement groove 214 to the assembly position 12.

[0037] In this embodiment, if Figure 1 As shown, the loading station 11 of the machine 1 is used to place the brackets to be stripped. The brackets can be placed in the loading station 11 via a material tray. The assembly station 12 is used to place the products. The transfer device 3 transfers the brackets at the loading station 11 to the film stripping device 2 for film stripping. The stripped brackets are then transferred to the assembly station 12 and loaded into the designated position of the product, completing the entire automated assembly of the brackets.

[0038] Specifically, the transfer device 3 adsorbs the bracket located at the loading position 11 through the adsorption head 313, and transfers the bracket to the placement groove 214 of the placement mechanism 21. The groove wall of the placement groove 214 forms a limit on the circumference of the bracket to prevent the bracket from excessively rotating in the installation groove, thereby fixing the bracket. After the bracket is placed in the placement groove 214, the transfer device 3 cancels the adsorption of the bracket, and the pressing head 233 of the pressing assembly 23 moves to the top of the bracket, and limits the bracket relative to the bottom of the placement groove 214 in the vertical direction, so as to facilitate the film tearing process of the bracket. Among them, when limiting the bracket, the pressing head 233 does not directly abut against the bracket, but leaves a certain movable gap between it and the bracket to prevent the bracket from being crushed due to production or placement errors. Optionally, the movable gap is not less than 0.1mm.

[0039] like Figures 4 to 6As shown, when the bracket is placed in place, the pressing head 233 and the placement slot 214 cooperate with the limiting bracket to relatively fix the bracket's position. The placement mechanism 21 is provided with a first avoidance space 215 connected to the placement slot 214, and the pressing assembly 23 is provided with a second avoidance space 234 connected to the placement slot 214. In this way, the film tearing end of the film tearing mechanism 22 can extend through the first avoidance space 215 to the bottom of the bracket to tear the protective film on the bottom side of the bracket. The film tearing end of the film tearing mechanism 22 can also extend through the second avoidance space 234 to the top of the bracket to tear the protective film on the top side of the bracket. In this way, the bracket film tearing can be automated.

[0040] After the stent film is removed, the pressing head 233 of the pressing assembly 23 releases the stent from the placement slot 214. The transfer device 3, through the suction head 313, sucks the stent. The transfer device 3 moves the stent to the assembly position 12 and installs the stent into the designated position of the product. This completes the automated assembly of the stent, greatly improving the assembly efficiency of the stent.

[0041] In this embodiment, the cross-sectional shape and size of the placement groove 214 are adapted to the cross-sectional shape and size of the bracket, and are not circular, so as to limit the bracket in the circumferential direction. The adsorption head 313 of the transfer device 3 adsorbs the bracket through negative pressure to avoid damage to the bracket. At the same time, the adsorption holes on the adsorption head 313 for circulating air flow can also avoid the adhesion layer on the upper side of the bracket to avoid the bracket from adhering to the adsorption head 313 when the bracket is moved after the adsorption and film tearing treatment. The upper side and the lower side of the bracket are two sides that are separated in the vertical direction. The adsorption head 313 fixes the bracket by adsorbing the upper surface of the bracket.

[0042] In actual implementation, Figures 1 to 3As shown, the transfer device 3 includes a first transfer mechanism 31 and a second transfer mechanism 32. The first transfer mechanism 31 is used to move the bracket from the loading position 11 to the placement groove 214, and the second transfer mechanism 32 is used to move the bracket from the placement groove 214 to the assembly position 12, and install the assembly position 12 into the designated position of the product. Optionally, the loading position 11, the film tearing device 2 and the assembly position 12 are arranged at intervals on the machine 1 along the first direction, and the first transfer mechanism 31 and the second transfer mechanism 32 both include a transfer translation driver 311, a transfer lifting driver 312 and an adsorption head 313. The transfer translation driver 311 is arranged on the machine 1, the transfer lifting driver 312 is connected to the output end of the transfer translation driver 311, and the adsorption head 313 is connected to the output end of the transfer lifting driver 312. The transfer translation driver 311 is used to drive the transfer lifting driver 312 and the adsorption head 313 to drive the bracket to move in the first direction, and the transfer lifting driver 312 is used to drive the adsorption head 313 to drive the bracket to move in the vertical direction. The first direction is arranged perpendicular to the vertical direction. In this way, the first transfer mechanism 31 and the second transfer mechanism 32 can realize the transfer of the bracket during the assembly process. It can be understood that the first transfer mechanism 31 and the second transfer mechanism 32 also include a visual detection component 314, which is connected to the output end of the transfer lifting drive 312 to move synchronously with the adsorption head 313. The setting of the visual detection component 314 enables the adsorption head 313 of the transfer device 3 to accurately adsorb and release the bracket. The second transfer mechanism 32 needs to transfer the bracket to the specified position of the product located at the assembly position 12 to assemble the bracket into the product. In the present application, the product can be a frame or temple of glasses, and the product has a connecting line for completing the wiring, and the bracket needs to be installed in the assembly position below the wiring. Therefore, the second transfer mechanism 32 does not directly lower the bracket from above the bracket assembly position, but first descends from a position deviating from the assembly position to a specified height to avoid the wiring, and then moves horizontally to the assembly position. The adsorption head 313 will peel the wiring from the original position, and then put the bracket into the assembly position to complete the assembly of the bracket. Optionally, in addition to the adsorption holes on the end faces of the adsorption heads 313 of the first transfer mechanism 31 and the second transfer mechanism 32, there are also positioning holes that cooperate with the positioning columns on the bracket to guide the positioning, so as to ensure that the adsorption head 313 can accurately adsorb the bracket. Optionally, since the adsorption head 313 will contact the wiring, the edges of the adsorption head 313 are rounded to avoid damaging the wiring. It is understandable that a bracket visual inspection part can also be set on the machine. When the second transfer mechanism 32 transfers the bracket that has completed film tearing, the visual inspection part 314 on the second transfer mechanism 32 can detect the film tearing condition on the upper side of the bracket. In the process of the second transfer mechanism 32 transporting the bracket, it can pass through the bracket visual inspection part, and the bracket visual inspection part can detect the film tearing condition on the lower side of the bracket, so as to ensure that the bracket film is torn in place.

[0043] In actual implementation, the first transfer mechanism 31 and the second transfer mechanism 32 are both provided with two adsorption heads 313 to simultaneously adsorb and transfer two brackets. Correspondingly, the placement mechanism 21 is also provided with two placement slots 214, and the pressing assembly 23 also has two pressing heads 233. The product at the assembly position 12 is also provided with two bracket assembly positions or the assembly position 12 is provided with two brackets to be assembled. In this way, the bracket assembly equipment 100 can tear the film and assemble the two brackets at the same time, which greatly improves the production efficiency of the bracket assembly.

[0044] In some embodiments, the bracket assembly equipment 100 further includes a silo device 6 for realizing automatic loading of brackets.

[0045] Optionally, the hopper device 6 can be a conveyor belt, which is used to transfer the tray carrying the bracket to the loading position 11 of the machine 1. After the transfer device 3 transfers all the brackets in the tray, the conveyor belt will transport the empty tray away and transfer the next tray carrying the bracket to the loading position 11 of the machine 1. In this way, the automatic loading of the bracket is realized, which further reduces the manual participation in the bracket assembly production process and improves the assembly production efficiency of the bracket.

[0046] Alternatively, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the silo device 6 may include at least two lifting mechanisms 61, a supporting mechanism 62, and at least two adsorption mechanisms 63. One lifting mechanism 61 is provided with an ascending channel 64, and a movable first lifting platform is provided within the ascending channel 64. The first lifting platform is used to lift the material tray carrying the bracket. The other lifting mechanism 61 is provided with a descending channel 65, and a movable second lifting platform is provided within the descending channel 65. The second lifting platform is used to lower the unloaded material tray. The ascending channel 64 and the descending channel 65 are both arranged in a vertical direction, and at least one side of the ascending channel 64 and the descending channel 65 is open. The outlet of the ascending channel 64 and the inlet of the descending channel 65 are located at the same height, both at the upper ends of the ascending channel 64 and the descending channel 65. The two adsorption mechanisms 63 are respectively provided corresponding to the outlet of the ascending channel 64 and the inlet of the descending channel 65. The adsorption mechanisms 63 are provided with suction cups for adsorbing the material tray. The carrying mechanism 62 is provided with a movable carrying platform 621, which is used to carry the material tray. The carrying mechanism 62 can drive the material tray to move between the outlet of the ascending channel 64, the upper material position 11 and the entrance of the descending channel 65 through the carrying platform 621. Optionally, a positioning block is provided on the carrying platform 621 to cooperate with the material tray.

[0047] Specifically, when loading begins, the first lifting platform is located at the lower end of the lifting channel, and a stack of material trays carrying brackets is placed on the first lifting platform. The lifting mechanism 61 drives the first lifting platform to drive the material tray to rise until the uppermost material tray reaches the exit of the rising channel 64. Then, the adsorption mechanism 63 arranged corresponding to the exit of the rising channel 64 drives the adsorption head 313 to approach the uppermost material tray, and the adsorption head 313 adsorbs the material tray. The adsorption mechanism 63 drives the material tray away from the exit of the rising channel 64 through the adsorption head 313. Then, the carrying mechanism 62 drives the carrying platform 621 to move to the exit of the rising channel 64. The adsorption mechanism 63 places the material tray on the carrying platform 621, and the carrying mechanism 62 transfers the carrying platform 621 to the loading position 11 for the transfer device 3 to transfer the bracket in the material tray. When the transfer of the brackets in the tray is completed, the carrying mechanism 62 drives the empty tray to be transferred to the entrance of the descending channel 65 through the carrying platform 621. The adsorption mechanism 63 corresponding to the entrance of the descending channel 65 adsorbs the empty tray through the adsorption head 313 and moves away from the entrance of the descending channel 65. Subsequently, the carrying mechanism 62 drives the carrying platform 621 to leave the entrance of the descending channel 65 to expose the second lifting platform located in the descending channel 65. The second lifting platform is close to the entrance of the descending channel 65. The adsorption mechanism 63 corresponding to the entrance of the descending channel 65 places the empty tray on the second lifting platform, thus completing the loading of the brackets in a tray. As the tray is transported, the first lifting platform continues to rise in preparation for loading the next tray. Similarly, as the tray is transported, the second lifting platform continues to descend in preparation for carrying the next empty tray. In this way, automatic batch loading of brackets can be realized, manpower can be liberated, and the efficiency of bracket assembly production can be improved.

[0048] It can be understood that the side opening of the ascending channel 64 is used for placing the feeding tray on the first lifting platform, and the side opening of the descending channel 65 is used for removing the feeding tray from the second lifting platform.

[0049] Optionally, the lifting mechanism 61, the supporting mechanism 62, and the adsorption mechanism 63 each drive the first and second lifting platforms, the supporting platform 621, and the adsorption head 313 via a linear drive assembly. For example, the linear drive assembly can be a combination of a motor, a screw, and a guide rail, or an electric cylinder or a pneumatic cylinder. Optionally, the lifting mechanism 61 and the adsorption mechanism 63 are driven in a vertical direction, while the supporting mechanism 62 can be driven in a second direction perpendicular to the vertical direction. Optionally, the second direction is arranged at an angle to the first direction.

[0050] Optionally, the trays can be transported by an AGV to further increase the automation level of the rack loading.

[0051] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, the pressing head 233 includes a mounting arm 2331, a first fixed arm 2332 and a second fixed arm 2333. The first fixed arm 2332 and the second fixed arm 2333 are connected to the mounting arm 2331 at intervals. The mounting arm 2331, the first fixed arm 2332 and the second fixed arm 2333 enclose a second avoidance space 234. The first fixed arm 2332 includes a first section 23321 and a second section 23322 connected at an angle. The second fixed arm 2333 includes a third section 23331 and a fourth section 23332 connected at an angle. The first section 23321 and the third section 23331 are connected to the mounting arm 2331. The extension direction of the second section 23322 and the extension direction of the fourth section 23332 are set at an angle.

[0052] In this embodiment, the mounting arm 2331 serves as a support and mounting structure for the first fixed arm 2332 and the second fixed arm 2333. Thus, the first fixed arm 2332 and the second fixed arm 2333 can be suspended to enclose the mounting arm 2331 to form a second avoidance space 234. The first section 23321 and the third section 23331 are connected to different positions of the mounting arm 2331. When the pressing head 233 is in the position of the limiting bracket, the first section 23321 and the third section 23331 extend toward the placement slot 214. The second section 23322 and the fourth section 23332 are arranged parallel to the upper surface of the bracket to correspond to the portion of the upper side of the limiting bracket that is not provided with an adhesive layer. This allows the bracket to be vertically limited in cooperation with the placement slot 214 without affecting the film tearing mechanism 22 from tearing the film on the upper side of the bracket. Moreover, the first section 23321 and the second section 23322 are arranged at an angle, and the third section 23331 and the fourth section 23332 are arranged at an angle, so that the film tearing end of the film tearing mechanism 22 can extend into the second avoidance space 234 from between the first section 23321 and the second section 23322 or between the third section 23331 and the fourth section 23332, and tear off the upper protective film of the bracket from the second avoidance space 234.

[0053] Optionally, the second section 23322 and the fourth section 23332 are arranged perpendicularly to each other, thereby ensuring that the pressing head 233 has a limited area for the bracket and preventing the bracket from loosening from the placement slot 214 when the film is removed. Optionally, the mounting arm 2331, the first fixing arm 2332, and the second fixing arm 2333 are integrally formed.

[0054] In actual implementation, the first fixing arm 2332 and the second fixing arm 2333 are arranged at the end of the mounting arm 2331 and are located on the side of the mounting arm 2331 close to the placement groove 214, that is, the bottom surface of the mounting arm 2331. The first fixing arm 2332 and the second fixing arm 2333 are respectively arranged on two adjacent sides of the bottom surface of the mounting arm 2331.

[0055] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the placement mechanism 21 is provided with at least two placement arms 213, the two placement arms 213 are arranged opposite to each other, and the two placement arms 213 enclose a placement groove 214 and a first avoidance space 215, and the placement arm 213 is provided with a placement step 2131, and the placement step 2131 is configured as the bottom of the placement groove 214 for supporting the bracket.

[0056] In this embodiment, the two placement arms 213 enclose two interconnected spaces in the vertical direction, namely a placement slot 214 and a first avoidance space 215. The placement slot 214 and the first avoidance space 215 are separated by the placement step 2131. The top of the placement step 2131 forms the bottom of the placement slot 214. The first avoidance space 215 is located below the top of the placement step 2131 and passes through the side of the placement arm 213 facing away from the placement slot 214. When the bracket is placed in the placement slot 214, the bracket abuts against the top of the placement step 2131. The first avoidance space 215 can avoid the adhesion layer and protective layer on the lower side of the bracket and allows the film tearing end of the film tearing mechanism 22 to tear the protective layer on the lower side of the bracket.

[0057] In actual implementation, the two placement arms 213 are arranged horizontally relative to each other to enclose a placement slot 214. There is a certain distance between the two placement arms 213 to form an opening connecting the placement slot 214 and the first avoidance space 215, so that the film tearing end of the film tearing mechanism 22 can extend from the opening into the first avoidance space 215 and tear the film on the lower side of the bracket. At the same time, the two placement arms 213 are arranged at intervals, which also allows the placement slot 214 to have a certain amount of redundant space, which is conducive to placing the bracket into the placement slot 214. It can be understood that when the bracket is placed in the placement slot 214, there is a small gap between the bracket and the slot wall of the placement slot 214 to facilitate the placement and removal of the bracket.

[0058] Optionally, avoidance holes are provided at the connection of the peripheral groove walls of the placement groove 214 for avoiding the corners of the bracket to reduce the difficulty of aligning the bracket with the placement groove 214, thereby preventing the bracket from being unable to be fully placed in the placement groove 214, affecting the limiting effect of the placement groove 214 on the bracket.

[0059] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the film tearing mechanism 22 includes a first film tearing assembly 221 and a second film tearing assembly 222 that are spaced apart. The first film tearing assembly 221 is used to tear the film on the lower side of the bracket through the first avoidance space 215, and the second film tearing assembly 222 is used to tear the film on the upper side of the bracket through the second avoidance space 234. The placement mechanism 21 is arranged between the first film tearing assembly 221 and the second film tearing assembly 222.

[0060] In this embodiment, the first film tearing assembly 221 and the second film tearing assembly 222 tear the film on the lower side and the upper side of the stent respectively, which can greatly increase the speed of film tearing of the stent and improve the efficiency of stent assembly production.

[0061] In actual implementation, Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the first film tearing assembly 221 and the second film tearing assembly 222 both include a driving cylinder 2213 and two film tearing arms 2214. The driving cylinder 2213 drives the two film tearing arms 2214 to move closer to or further away from each other to clamp or release the protective film. The clamping end of the film tearing arm 2214 is the film tearing end of the film tearing mechanism 22. It can be understood that the film tearing arm 2214 of the first film tearing assembly 221 is arranged at a height corresponding to the lower side of the bracket in the placement slot 214, and the film tearing arm 2214 of the second film tearing assembly 222 is arranged at a height corresponding to the upper side of the bracket in the placement slot 214. The film tearing arm 2214 of the first film tearing assembly 221 can clamp the protective film on the lower side of the bracket through the first avoidance space 215, so that the first film tearing assembly 221 can tear the film. The film tearing arm 2214 of the second film tearing assembly 222 can pass through the protective film under the second avoidance space 234, so that the second film tearing assembly 222 can tear the film.

[0062] Optionally, the first film-tearing assembly 221 and the second film-tearing assembly 222 may further include a film-tearing lifting drive 2211 and a film-tearing translation drive 2212. The film-tearing lifting drive 2211 is connected to the machine 1, the film-tearing translation drive 2212 is connected to the output end of the film-tearing lifting drive 2211, and the driving cylinder 2213 is connected to the output end of the film-tearing translation drive 2212. The film-tearing lifting drive 2211 is used to adjust the vertical height of the film-tearing arm 2214 so that the film-tearing arm 2214 can accurately clamp the protective film on the upper side or lower side of the bracket. The film-tearing translation drive 2212 is used to drive the film-tearing lifting drive 2211, the driving cylinder 2213, and the film-tearing arm 2214 to move closer to or away from the bracket to tear the protective film from the adhesive layer. The film-tearing lifting drive 2211 and the film-tearing translation drive 2212 may be electric cylinders or pneumatic cylinders.

[0063] Optionally, the machine 1 is provided with a waste discharge position below the film tearing arm 2214 of each of the first and second film tearing assemblies 221 and 222. The waste discharge position is provided with a waste collection member 24. The waste collection member 24 is used to collect the torn protective film to prevent it from affecting the normal operation of the bracket assembly device 100. Optionally, the waste collection member 24 can be funnel-shaped, with the end of the waste collection member 24 facing away from the machine 1 being open. Optionally, the waste collection member 24 can collect the protective film through negative pressure suction, preventing the protective film from being too light to accurately fall into the waste collection member 24.

[0064] It should be noted that, due to the highly asymmetric shape of the protective film on the lower side of the stent, when the stent is torn off, the protective film will drive the stent to rotate through the adhesive layer, causing the stent to tightly abut against the wall of the placement slot 214, and the stent may be stuck in the placement slot 214, affecting the removal of the stent. Therefore, when the tearing mechanism 22 tears the film on the stent, the first tearing assembly 221 first tears the protective film on the lower side of the stent, and then the second tearing assembly 222 tears the protective film on the upper side of the stent. When the second tearing assembly 222 tears the film on the upper side of the stent, it will drive the stent to shake in the placement slot 214 again to loosen the stent from the placement slot 214, so that the stent can be smoothly removed after the tearing is completed.

[0065] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the placement mechanism 21 includes a transfer component 211 and a placement seat 212. The transfer component 211 is arranged on the machine 1. The placement seat 212 and the pressing component 23 are arranged at the output end of the transfer component 211. The placement seat 212 is provided with a placement groove 214 and a first avoidance space 215. The transfer component 211 is used to drive the placement mechanism 21 and the pressing component 23 to drive the bracket to move to the first film tearing component 221 and the second film tearing component 222.

[0066] In this embodiment, the transfer assembly 211 is used to drive the placement seat 212 and the pressing assembly 23 to drive the bracket in the placement groove 214 to move, so as to reach the tearing end of the first tearing assembly 221 and the tearing end of the second tearing assembly 222 in turn, so that the first tearing assembly 221 and the second tearing assembly 222 tear the lower side and the upper side of the bracket in turn.

[0067] Optionally, the first tearing assembly 221 and the second tearing assembly 222 are located on different sides of the placement mechanism 21, and the transfer assembly 211 drives the placement mechanism 21 and the pressing assembly 23 to rotate so that the stents in the placement slot 214 sequentially reach the tearing positions of the first tearing assembly 221 and the second tearing assembly 222. This greatly improves the flexibility of the layout of the first tearing assembly 221 and the second tearing assembly 222, making the layout of the stent assembly device 100 more compact and reasonable.

[0068] Optionally, the transfer assembly 211 may include three linear drive mechanisms and a rotation mechanism with mutually perpendicular drive directions, so as to improve the freedom of movement of the bracket in the processing space of the machine 1 and ensure the accuracy of the film tearing mechanism 22 in tearing the film on the bracket.

[0069] In some embodiments, the placement seat 212 is provided with two placement arms 213 disposed opposite to each other, and the two placement arms 213 enclose a first avoidance space 215 and a second avoidance space 234. Optionally, the distance between the two placement arms 213 is adjustable to accommodate brackets of different sizes.

[0070] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the transfer assembly 211 includes a transfer translation drive 2111 and a rotation drive 2112. The transfer translation drive 2111 is connected to the machine 1, the rotation drive 2112 is connected to the output end of the transfer translation drive 2111, and the placement seat 212 and the pressing assembly 23 are connected to the output end of the rotation drive 2112.

[0071] In this embodiment, the first film tearing assembly 221 and the second film tearing assembly 222 are spaced apart to facilitate positioning the transfer module between the first film tearing assembly 221 and the second film tearing assembly 222. Furthermore, the transfer device 3 has sufficient space to accommodate the bracket within the placement slot 214 of the transfer assembly 211. The transfer translation driver 2111 is used to drive the rotation driver 2112 to translate between the line connecting the film tearing end of the first film tearing assembly 221 and the film tearing end of the second film tearing assembly 222. The rotation driver 2112 can rotate the placement seat 212 and the pressing assembly 23, thereby adjusting the angle of the bracket so that the bracket accurately faces the film tearing end of the first film tearing assembly 221 and the film tearing end of the second film tearing assembly 222.

[0072] In actual implementation, the first film tearing assembly 221 and the second film tearing assembly 222 are arranged relative to each other in the second direction, with a certain distance between the first film tearing assembly 221 and the second film tearing assembly 222. The transfer translation drive 2111 is used to drive the rotation drive 2112, the placement seat 212 and the pressing assembly 23 to move along the second direction. The rotation drive 2112 is used to drive the placement seat 212 and the pressing assembly 23 to rotate, so as to move the bracket toward the first film tearing assembly 221 or the second film tearing assembly 222, so as to facilitate the first film tearing assembly 221 or the second film tearing assembly 222 to tear the film from the bracket. It can be understood that the transfer device 3 places the bracket in the placement position of the placement slot 214 between the first film tearing assembly 221 and the second film tearing assembly 222. Before tearing the film, the transfer assembly 211 drives the placement seat 212 and the pressing assembly 23 to move to the placement position, so that the transfer device 3 can place the bracket to be torn into the placement slot 214. After the film is torn off, the transfer assembly 211 drives the placement seat 212 and the pressing assembly 23 back to the placement position again, waiting for the transport device 3 to take out the bracket.

[0073] Optionally, the transfer translation drive member 2111 is a linear drive mechanism, which may be a combination of a motor, a screw and a guide rail, or an electric cylinder or a pneumatic cylinder, etc. The rotation drive member 2112 may be an electric drive rotary table.

[0074] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, the pressing assembly 23 includes a pressing translation drive 231, a pressing lifting drive 232 and a pressing head 233. The pressing translation drive 231 is connected to the placement seat 212, the pressing lifting drive 232 is connected to the output end of the pressing translation drive 231, and the pressing head 233 is connected to the output end of the pressing lifting drive 232.

[0075] In this embodiment, the pressing translation driver 231 is used to adjust the relative horizontal position of the pressing head 233 and the placement slot 214, while the pressing elevation driver 232 is used to adjust the relative vertical position of the pressing head 233 and the placement slot 214. The coordinated driving of the pressing translation driver 231 and the pressing elevation driver 232 allows the pressing head 233 to accurately land above the placement slot 214, thereby cooperating with the placement slot 214 to form a limit bracket.

[0076] In actual implementation, when the pressing assembly 23 is in the position-limiting bracket, the pressing translation driver 231 drives the pressing lifting driver 232 to drive the pressing head 233 to move to the top of the placement slot 214. When the pressing head 233 is aligned with the portion to be limited on the upper surface of the bracket, the pressing lifting driver 232 drives the pressing head 233 downward to position the bracket relative to the limiting slot. When the bracket film is peeled off, the pressing lifting driver 232 drives the pressing upward, and the pressing translation driver 231 then drives the pressing lifting driver 232 to drive the pressing head 233 away from the top of the placement slot 214 to avoid interfering with the suction head 313 of the transfer device 3 sucking the bracket.

[0077] Optionally, the pressing translation drive member 231 and the pressing lifting drive member 232 are linear drive mechanisms, which can be a combination of a motor, a screw rod and a guide rail, or an electric cylinder or a pneumatic cylinder.

[0078] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the bracket assembly equipment 100 also includes a conveying device 4 and a supporting device 5. The conveying device 4 is provided with a conveying channel 44, and the conveying channel 44 is used to convey the product and pass through the assembly position 12. The supporting device 5 is provided on the machine 1 corresponding to the assembly position 12, and the supporting device 5 is provided with a supporting platform 52, and the supporting platform 52 is used to support the product.

[0079] In this embodiment, the conveying device 4 is used to convey the product. In actual implementation, the product is placed in a jig for conveyance, and the support table 52 supports the product by supporting the jig. The two ends of the conveying channel 44 can be connected to the previous process and the next process of the product, respectively, so as to form a complete product production line. The support device 5 is provided at the assembly position 12 of the machine 1. When the conveying device 4 conveys the product to the assembly position 12, the support device 5 supports the product through the support table 52 and drives the support table 52 to lift the product to a specified height to leave the conveying channel 44 and wait for the assembly of the bracket. After the assembly of the bracket is completed, the support device 5 drives the support table 52 to put the product back into the conveying channel 44, and the conveying device 4 conveys the product away or to the next process.

[0080] In actual implementation, the conveyor device 4 can be a conveyor belt or conveyor roller, etc. The support device 5 includes a support lift drive 51 and a support platform 52. The support platform 52 is connected to the output end of the support lift drive 51. The support lift drive 51 is used to drive the support platform 52 up and down to move the product out of or into the conveying channel 44. Optionally, the support platform 52 is provided with a positioning block that engages with the product. Optionally, the support lift drive 51 is a linear drive mechanism, such as an electric cylinder or a pneumatic cylinder. Optionally, the transmission channel of the conveying channel 44 is arranged along the second direction. The driving direction of the support lift drive 51 is arranged in the vertical direction.

[0081] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 3 、 Figure 7 and Figure 9 As shown, the conveying device 4 includes a conveyor belt assembly 41 and a height sensor 42. The conveyor belt assembly 41 is provided with at least two conveyor belts 411 arranged at intervals. The conveyor belts 411 form a conveying channel 44. The supporting device 5 is provided between the two conveyor belts 411. The height sensor 42 is provided on the side of the conveying channel 44 away from the machine 1. The height sensor 42 is used to detect the height of the product.

[0082] In this embodiment, the conveyor belt assembly 41 is used to transport products. Specifically, the conveyor belt assembly 41 transports the products by driving two synchronously rotating conveyor belts 411. The two conveyor belts 411 are spaced apart to suspend at least a portion of the product's underside, allowing the support platform 52 to support the product from below. Before the product is transported to the assembly position, a height sensor 42 checks the product's height, primarily the height of the product's wiring, to ensure that the wiring is properly positioned and that there is sufficient space for bracket assembly.

[0083] In actual implementation, the height sensor 42 can be suspended on a support frame on the side of the conveyor channel 44 facing away from the machine 1, that is, above the conveyor channel 44. The height sensor 42 can be a laser sensor. Optionally, the support device 5 includes multiple devices. When measuring the product height, the support device 5 can also be used to lift the product, and then the height sensor 42 can measure the product height.

[0084] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 3 and Figure 8 As shown, the conveying device 4 further includes an anti-warping component 43 , which includes an anti-warping head 431 movably provided on the machine 1 , and the anti-warping head 431 is used to fix or release the product on the support platform 52 .

[0085] In this embodiment, when the support device 5 lifts the product via the support platform 52 for bracket assembly, the anti-warp head 431 descends to press against the product on the support platform 52, preventing it from tilting during bracket assembly. This maintains the product in a relatively horizontal position, thereby ensuring bracket assembly quality. Furthermore, the anti-warp head 431 cooperates with the support platform 52 to position the product, preventing movement during bracket assembly, which could compromise bracket assembly accuracy. After bracket assembly is complete, the anti-warp platform rises to release the product.

[0086] In actual implementation, the anti-warp head 431 can be a pneumatic pressure head, which can be installed above the conveying channel 44 via a mounting bracket. In some embodiments, the anti-warp assembly 43 can also include an anti-warp lifting drive, and the anti-warp head 431 can be driven by the anti-warp lifting drive. Optionally, the anti-warp head 431 is driven in the vertical direction.

[0087] Optionally, the vertical direction, the first direction and the second direction of the present application can be arranged perpendicularly in pairs.

[0088] The above description is merely an exemplary embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the patent scope of the present invention. Any equivalent structural transformation made by utilizing the contents of the present invention's description and drawings under the technical concept of the present invention, or directly / indirectly applied in other related technical fields, is included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.
