Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of hose clamp assembly equipment technology, and more specifically, to a novel mechanical hose clamp assembly machine and its usage method. Background Technology

[0002] Miniature American-style hose clamps are widely used in construction, home furnishing, and other fields, characterized by their sturdy structure, aesthetically pleasing appearance, and easy installation. With technological advancements and improved living standards, the demands on miniature American-style hose clamps are increasing. They not only need to meet basic stability and aesthetic requirements but also demand higher performance and lower costs. However, traditional miniature American-style hose clamps have the following shortcomings in their production: 1) High cost: The production of small American-style hose clamps usually requires multiple processes and steps, so their manufacturing cost is relatively high, which may limit their application in some low-end markets.

[0003] 2) Installation complexity: The installation of small American-style hose clamps usually requires certain skills and experience. Improper installation may lead to product damage or poor performance, which may increase the user's installation costs and usage risks.

[0004] 3) Market environment requirements: With the continuous updates of the market, the performance requirements of products are getting higher and higher. The original ordinary small American-style hose clamps can only reach a destructive torque of 2N, which no longer meets the needs of high-performance application scenarios.

The third cam drives the third drive rod to move downward, causing the top of the third drive rod to separate from one end of the riveting block, thereby causing the riveting block to move away from the riveting mold under the action of the return spring. S5. Continue to drive the riveting mold downward through the second cam, the second drive rod, the seventh cam and the seventh drive rod to achieve the re-bending of the steel strip, so that the steel strip forms a circular structure around the main mandrel, and then control the riveting mold to reset. S6.

S7. The screw push rod and the hoop shell push rod are driven to move downward by the hoop delivery cylinder. Under the action of the screw push rod, the screw distribution block is separated. At the same time, the hoop shell push rod drives the hoop shell distribution block to move to the right, so that the screw falls into the hoop shell to realize the assembly of the two. The screw push rod continues to move downward to separate the hoop shell distribution block, so that the hoop shell with the screw falls from the hoop shell outlet into the hoop shell riveting seat. S8. The first rotating rod, the feeding push rod and the hoop riveting seat are driven to move towards the main mandrel and align with it through the fourth cam, the fourth drive rod and the sliding rod. Then, the fifth cam drives the fifth drive rod to move upward, so that the fifth drive rod drives the hoop riveting seat to move upward and so that the hoop with screws matches the bottom end of the round steel strip. S9. The first cam and the first drive rod drive the tie rod sleeve and the main riveting head to move inward to achieve the bending operation on one side of the top of the hoop. Then, the sixth cam and the sixth drive rod drive the auxiliary riveting head to move inward to achieve the bending operation on the other side of the top of the hoop, thus completing the assembly of the hoop and the steel strip. S10. Control the main riveting head, auxiliary riveting head, hoop riveting seat and feeding push rod to reset respectively. Then drive the main mandrel to move outward through the rotating wheel and the second rotating rod, so that the assembled hose clamp is in a suspended state. Under the action of gravity, the assembled hose clamp is discharged from the discharge slide and the discharge pipe in sequence.

The third drive rod moves downward, causing its top end to separate from one end of the riveting block. Under the action of the return spring, the riveting block moves away from the riveting mold. S5: The second cam, second drive rod, seventh cam, and seventh drive rod continue to drive the riveting mold downward, achieving a second bending of the steel strip. This causes the steel strip to form a circular structure around the main mandrel. The riveting mold is then controlled to reset. S6: The screw vibratory plate, screw slide tube, hoop vibratory plate, and hoop slide tube drive the screw and hoop to be fed, allowing them to fall through the screw inlet and hoop inlet into the space between the screw distribution blocks and the hoop outlet, respectively. S7. The screw push rod and hoop shell push rod are moved downward by the feeding cylinder, and the screw distribution block is separated under the action of the screw push rod. At the same time, the hoop shell push rod moves the hoop shell distribution block to the right, so that the screw falls into the hoop shell to complete the assembly of the two. The screw push rod continues to move downward to separate the hoop shell distribution block, so that the hoop shell with the screw falls from the hoop shell outlet into the hoop shell riveting seat; S8. The first rotating rod, feeding push rod and hoop shell riveting seat are moved towards the main mandrel and aligned with it by the fourth cam, the fourth drive rod and sliding rod. Then, the fifth drive rod is moved upward by the fifth cam, so that the fifth drive rod moves the hoop shell riveting seat upward and... S9. The first cam and the first drive rod drive the pull rod sleeve and the main riveting head to move inward, realizing the bending operation on one side of the top of the hoop. Then, the sixth cam and the sixth drive rod drive the auxiliary riveting head to move inward, realizing the bending operation on the other side of the top of the hoop, thus completing the assembly of the hoop and the steel strip. S10. The main riveting head, auxiliary riveting head, hoop riveting seat and feeding push rod are reset respectively. Then, the rotating wheel and the second rotating rod drive the main mandrel to move outward, so that the assembled hose clamp is in a suspended state. Under the action of gravity, the assembled hose clamp is discharged from the discharge slide and the discharge pipe in sequence.
