Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to antenna connector manufacturing equipment, and more particularly to an antenna connector terminal insertion machine. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of automated assembly of electronic components, terminal insertion of antenna connectors is a crucial step in communication equipment manufacturing. For connectors with six slots, the terminals must be precisely inserted into each slot. Currently, terminals are mostly supplied in rows in the form of connecting strips, with the spacing between adjacent terminals being larger than the spacing between adjacent slots of the connector. This difference prevents existing insertion machines from using a row-by-row pick-up and synchronous insertion method. If individual terminals are picked up and inserted one by one, positioning, picking, moving, and insertion operations must be performed on each of the six terminals separately. Each insertion requires multiple repetitions, resulting in extremely low insertion efficiency. Traditional single-station insertion machines rely on a single robotic arm to process terminals one by one. The insertion cycle increases with the number of terminals, making it difficult to meet the needs of mass production. While multi-station parallel solutions can operate synchronously, they require complex terminal sorting mechanisms and high positioning accuracy requirements for each robotic arm, significantly increasing equipment costs.

[0003] It should be noted that the information disclosed in the background section above is only used to enhance the understanding of the background of this disclosure, and therefore may include information that does not constitute prior art known to those skilled in the art.

[0019] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this application more apparent and understandable, specific embodiments of this application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Many specific details are set forth in the following description to provide a thorough understanding of this application. However, this application can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar modifications without departing from the spirit of this application. Therefore, this application is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0020] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, one embodiment provides an antenna connector terminal insertion machine, including: a feed rail 100, an insertion device 200, and a cutting device 300.

[0021] The feeding track 100 is provided with a track groove extending in a first direction, and a connector transfer device 110 is provided on the feeding track 100 corresponding to the track groove; two insertion devices 200 are spaced apart on one side of the feeding track 100, and the insertion devices 200 are configured to insert three spaced terminals into the connector in the track groove; two cutting devices 300 are spaced apart on one side of the feeding track 100, and the cutting devices 300 are configured to cut the connecting strip of the terminals.

[0022] It is understandable that the first direction corresponds to the X-axis (i.e., the left-right direction) of the spatial coordinate system, the second direction corresponds to the Y-axis (i.e., the front-back direction) of the spatial coordinate system, and the third direction corresponds to the Z-axis (i.e., the up-down direction) of the spatial coordinate system.

[0023] It is worth noting that the connector transfer device 110 is used to push the connector to move in the track groove, so that the connector can move along the first direction and pass through the insertion device 200 and the cutting device 300 in sequence.

[0024] During operation, the connector is conveyed via the track groove of the feed rail 100 to the relative position of the first insertion device 200. The insertion device 200 grasps three terminals, moves them along a second direction, and inserts them into the spaced slots of the connector. Subsequently, the connector that has completed the first insertion moves to the relative position of the first cutting device 300 to cut the connecting strip. The connector that has completed the first cutting is conveyed to the relative position of the second insertion device 200. The insertion device 200 grasps three terminals, moves them along a second direction, and inserts them into the remaining spaced slots of the connector. Subsequently, the connector that has completed the second insertion moves to the relative position of the second cutting device 300 to cut the connecting strip. Finally, the connector is unloaded.

[0025] This terminal insertion machine uses two insertion devices 200 to insert six terminals into the connector in two separate steps. Each insertion device 200 inserts three terminals at intervals into the connector, thus solving the technical problem that existing insertion machines cannot use a row-by-row pickup and synchronous insertion. Furthermore, the connecting strip is cut after each insertion, realizing an automated process for terminal insertion and connecting strip cutting, improving insertion efficiency and consistency.

[0026] like Figures 1 to 6As shown, in some embodiments, the insertion device 200 includes a terminal transfer mechanism 210, a connector positioning mechanism 220, and a terminal insertion mechanism 230. The connector positioning mechanism 220 is located on one side of the feed rail 100, and at least a portion of the connector positioning mechanism 220 is movably disposed in the rail groove to restrict the degree of freedom of the connector in a first direction. The terminal transfer mechanism 210 and the terminal insertion mechanism 230 are located on the other side of the feed rail 100. The terminal transfer mechanism 210 is used to push three terminals onto the terminal insertion mechanism 230 in the first direction. The terminal insertion mechanism 230 is used to clamp the three terminals and insert them into the spaced slots of the connector.

[0027] When the connector moves to the relative position of the insertion device 200, at least a portion of the connector positioning mechanism 220 extends into the track groove, locking the connector in place. This restricts the connector's degree of freedom in the first direction, preventing misalignment during insertion. The terminal transfer mechanism 210 pushes three terminals to the clamping position of the terminal insertion mechanism 230. After gripping the three terminals, the terminal insertion mechanism 230 drives the terminals to move along the second direction and insert them into the remaining spaced slots of the connector.

[0028] Thus, the division of labor and cooperation between the terminal transfer mechanism 210 and the terminal insertion mechanism 230 enables precise pushing and insertion of terminals, ensuring that the three terminals are installed synchronously and with accurate spacing, thereby improving insertion accuracy and reliability.

[0029] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the connector positioning mechanism 220 includes a first bracket, a first cylinder 221, a first mounting member 222, a positioning member 223, a mounting base 224, contact sensors 225, and contact members 226. The first bracket is mounted on the feed rail 100, the first cylinder 221 is mounted on the first bracket, the first mounting member 222 is screwed onto the output end of the first cylinder 221, the positioning member 223 is screwed onto the first mounting member 222, at least a portion of the positioning member 223 extends into the rail groove, the end of the positioning member 223 near the feed rail 100 has a positioning part with a positioning flared opening, the mounting base 224 is screwed onto the feed rail 100, there are two contact sensors 225 mounted on the mounting base 224, the contact members 226 are movably inserted into the feed rail 100 and are provided corresponding to the two contact sensors 225, at least a portion of the contact members 226 extends into the rail groove, and the end of the contact members 226 near the bottom wall of the rail groove is chamfered.

[0030] When the connector moves to the relative position of the insertion device 200, the connector contacts the contact member 226, pushing the contact member 226 upward, causing the contact member 226 to contact the contact sensor 225, triggering the contact sensor 225 to confirm that the connector is in place, and then sending a signal to control the first cylinder 221 to work. The first cylinder 221 drives the first mounting member 222 to move toward the feed rail 100, and the positioning member 223 moves accordingly. At least a portion of the positioning member 223 extends into the rail groove, and the connector passes through the positioning flare and contacts the inside of the positioning flare, thereby preventing displacement.

[0031] In this way, the contact sensor 225 detects the connector's positioning status in real time, preventing misalignment or insufficient insertion. The chamfered structure of the contact 226 facilitates a sliding fit between the connector and the contact 226. The flared positioning opening of the positioning part helps restrict the connector's degree of freedom in the first direction.

[0032] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the terminal transfer mechanism 210 includes a second cylinder 211, a second mounting member 212, a second bracket 213, a third cylinder 214, and a terminal fixing member 215. The second cylinder 211 is mounted on one side of the conveying track 100 along a first direction. The second mounting member 212 is screwed onto the output end of the second cylinder 211. The second bracket 213 is screwed onto the second mounting member 212. The third cylinder 214 is mounted on the second bracket 213 along a third direction. The terminal fixing member 215 is connected to the output end of the third cylinder 214.

[0033] It is worth noting that a terminal feeding track is arranged parallel to one side of the feeding track 100 for terminal feeding. The terminal transfer mechanism 210 is arranged on one side of the terminal feeding track.

[0034] It is understandable that the second cylinder 211 is used to drive the terminal fixing member 215 to move along the first direction, and the third cylinder 214 is used to drive the terminal fixing member 215 to move along the third direction. In this way, the second cylinder 211 and the third cylinder 214 work together to achieve the feeding of the terminal along the first direction.

[0035] The terminal fixing member 215 is connected to the output end of the third cylinder 214. It can be understood that, with the joint cooperation of the second cylinder 211 and the third cylinder 214, the terminal fixing member 215 can move along the first direction and the third direction, so that the terminal moves toward the terminal insertion mechanism 230.

[0036] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the terminal transfer mechanism 210 includes a guide member 216, which has a guide groove along its length, and the terminal fixing member 215 is movably disposed in the guide groove.

[0037] The guide member 216 is screwed onto the second bracket 213, and the terminal fixing member 215 is slidably disposed in the guide groove, allowing it to move up and down. In this way, the guide member 216 can play a guiding role and prevent the terminal fixing member 215 from shifting when it moves.

[0038] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the terminal fixing member 215 includes a connecting body 2151, a first abutting block 2152, and a first plug-in post 2153. At least a portion of the connecting body 2151 is connected to the output end of the third cylinder 214 and is located in a guide groove. An installation groove is provided at one end of the connecting body 2151 near the material conveying track 100. The installation groove extends along the width direction of the connecting body 2151. A support block is provided on one side of the connecting body 2151 near the material conveying track 100. The first abutting block 2152 is located in the installation groove and is screwed to the connecting body 2151. There are three first plug-in posts 2153, which are inserted through the support block and abut between the support block and the first abutting block 2152.

[0039] Thus, the third cylinder 214 drives the connecting body 2151 to move up and down, so that the first plug pin 2153 is inserted into the connecting strip of the terminal in the track groove, and then, driven by the second cylinder 211, the terminal can be moved forward.

[0040] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the terminal transfer mechanism 210 includes a limiting seat 217 located on one side of the second cylinder 211, and the limiting seat 217 is provided with a limiting groove, and at least a portion of the second bracket 213 is provided in the limiting groove.

[0041] Thus, the limiting seat 217 can limit the movement range of the second bracket 213, achieve mechanical limiting, and precisely control the movement stroke of the terminal fixing member 215.

[0042] like Figures 1 to 6As shown, in some embodiments, the terminal insertion mechanism 230 includes a moving component 231, a slide 232, a sixth cylinder 233, a first insertion seat 234, a second abutment block 235, a second insertion post 236, a seventh cylinder 237, and a second insertion seat 238. The moving component 231 is located on one side of the terminal transfer mechanism 210 and is connected to the slide 232 to drive the slide 232 to move along a first direction and a second direction. The sixth cylinder 233 and the seventh cylinder 237 are both mounted on the slide 232, and the output end of the sixth cylinder 233 is connected to the first insertion seat 234. The first insert 234 is used to drive the first insert 234 to move in a third direction. The output end of the seventh cylinder 237 is connected to the second insert 238 and is used to drive the second insert 238 to move in a third direction. The first insert 234 and the second insert 238 are arranged opposite each other. The second abutment block 235 is screwed onto the first insert 234. The second insertion post 236 is inserted into the first insert 234 and abuts against the second abutment block 235 and the first insert 234. The second insert 238 is provided with an insertion groove that cooperates with the second insertion post 236. The second insert 238 is arranged close to the terminal transfer mechanism 210.

[0043] The moving component 231 is located on one side of the terminal transfer mechanism 210. It is understood that the moving component 231 controls the slide 232 to move along the second direction, thereby precisely controlling the insertion of the terminal into the connector. Specifically, the moving component 231 can be a cylinder or a motor, and is not specifically limited here.

[0044] The first insertion socket 234 and the second insertion socket 238 are arranged facing each other. It can be understood that the first insertion socket 234 and the second insertion socket 238 are arranged along a third direction. In this way, during insertion, the first insertion socket 234 and the second insertion socket 238 can jointly hold the terminal.

[0045] The second insertion holder 238 is positioned close to the terminal transfer mechanism 210. Understandably, after the three terminals are moved onto the second insertion holder 238, the terminals are still connected by the connecting strip. At this point, the first insertion holder 234 moves downward under drive, pressing the terminals onto the second insertion holder 238. Subsequently, the first insertion holder 234 and the second insertion holder 238 move upward together, disengaging the connecting strips of the three terminals from the connecting strips of the remaining terminals, thus achieving separation.

[0046] During insertion, the three terminals are transferred to the second insertion socket 238. The first insertion socket 234 moves downward, gradually reducing the distance between it and the second insertion socket 238, eventually pressing the three terminals into it. During this process, the second insertion post 236 passes through the connecting strip of the three terminals and then inserts into the insertion slot. Under drive, the first insertion socket 234 and the second insertion socket 238 move upward synchronously and align with the connector, thus achieving positioning and disconnecting the connecting strips of the three terminals from those of the remaining terminals. The slide 232 moves towards the connector under drive and inserts the three terminals into the connector. The first insertion socket 234 and the second insertion socket 238 separate and reset under drive, and the slide 232 resets, ready for the next insertion.

[0047] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the first insert 234 protrudes towards the feed rail 100 with a front protrusion 2331, and a terminal abutment 2332 is provided on the front protrusion 2331. The second insert post 236 passes through the front protrusion 2331.

[0048] A terminal abutment block 2332 is provided on the front protrusion 2331. It can be understood that the terminal abutment block 2332 is used to abut against the upwardly bent spring part of the terminal, thereby providing force to the upwardly bent spring part of the terminal, so that the terminal can be smoothly inserted into the slot of the connector.

[0049] It should be noted that, in order to improve the connection stability between the terminal and the connector, a locking block structure is provided on the upwardly bent spring part of the terminal to mate with the inner wall of the slot. In this way, when the terminal is inserted, a force needs to be applied to the upwardly bent spring part of the terminal, so as to prevent the terminal from deforming due to resistance during the locking and engagement.

[0050] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the cutting device 300 includes a fourth cylinder 310, a pressing member 320, a fifth cylinder 330, and a cutting member 340. The fourth cylinder 310 and the fifth cylinder 330 are both installed on one side of the insertion device 200 and are arranged along a third direction. The pressing member 320 is connected to the output end of the fourth cylinder 310 and is provided with a corresponding track groove. The cutting member 340 is connected to the output end of the fifth cylinder 330 and has a cutting opening.

[0051] During cutting, the connector moves to the position relative to the cutting device 300, at which point the connecting strip of the terminal is located in the cutting opening. The pressing member 320 moves downward, pressing against the terminal in the connector. The cutting member 340 moves downward, and the top inner wall of the cutting opening provides a downward impact force to the connecting strip of the terminal, causing the connecting strip of the terminal to separate from the terminal.
