[0019] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. In addition, the technical features involved in the various embodiments of the present invention described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.
[0020] See also Figures 1 to 6The transformer core rapid assembly system in the preferred embodiment of the present invention is specifically, the rapid assembly system in the preferred embodiment of the present invention includes a conveyor belt assembly 100, a fixture structure and an assembly assembly, as well as a first workbench 600 and a second workbench 700; the conveyor belt assembly 100 is arranged along the X-axis direction, and the fixture structure is arranged on the conveyor belt assembly 100, for carrying the lower iron yoke 300 to be assembled; the first assembly assembly 400 is arranged across the conveyor belt assembly 100 along the Y-axis direction; wherein the first assembly assembly 400 includes two brackets 401 structures, and the two brackets 401 structures are respectively arranged on both sides of the conveyor belt assembly 100 in the Y-axis direction; and an X-axis moving unit 402 is provided on the bracket 401, and a Y-axis moving module is provided between the two X-axis moving units 402; and on the Y-axis moving module, a Y-axis moving module is provided between the two X-axis moving units 402; Two sliders are arranged at intervals, each slider is provided with a Z-axis moving unit 404, and a clamp 405 is provided on the telescopic unit of the Z-axis moving module; and the movement directions of the two clamps 405 are opposite; the first workbench 600 and the second workbench 700 are respectively arranged on both sides of the first assembly component 400 in the Y-axis direction, and the first workbench 600 and the second workbench 700 are respectively used to place the insulating paper 601 and the winding structure 602 to be assembled; at the same time, a first detection camera 406 is provided under each slider for collecting image data and position information of the lower iron yoke 300, and when the clamp 405 moves to above the first workbench 600 or the second workbench 700 with the X-axis moving unit 402, the Y-axis moving unit 403 and the Z-axis moving unit 404, the image data and position information of the workpiece to be assembled on the workbench are collected.
[0021] More specifically, the rapid assembly system in the preferred embodiment of the present invention also includes a second assembly component 500, which is arranged across the conveyor belt component 100 along the Y-axis direction and is spaced apart from the first assembly group in the X-axis direction; it includes a frame 501 and two first telescopic units 502, a second telescopic unit 503 and a third telescopic unit 504 located on opposite sides of the frame 501; wherein the first telescopic unit 502 is arranged along the Y-axis direction, and the second telescopic unit 503 is arranged along the X-axis direction on the telescopic end of the first telescopic unit 502, and the third telescopic unit 504 is arranged on the movable end of the second telescopic unit 503.
[0022] Furthermore, a pressing block is provided at the telescopic end of the third telescopic unit 504 for pressing the upper iron yoke onto the lower iron yoke 300. At the same time, a second detection camera 505 is provided at the top of the inner cavity of the frame 501 for collecting image data of the lower iron yoke 300 at the bottom of the frame 501.
[0023] During actual use, the second assembly component 500 is spaced apart from the first assembly component 400. The first telescopic unit 502 of the Y axis, the second telescopic unit 503 of the X axis, and the third telescopic unit 504 of the Z axis in the frame 501 work together to drive the pressing block. The second detection camera 505 on the top monitors the position of the lower iron yoke 300 in real time. Through multi-axis linkage, the upper iron yoke is accurately pressed to the lower iron yoke 300 to form a closed magnetic circuit, replacing the traditional manual pressing operation, ensuring that the air gap in the magnetic circuit is evenly distributed, and improving the electromagnetic performance of the iron core.
[0024] In more detail, the jig assembly 200 includes a carrier plate 201 and a clamping structure 203. The clamping mechanism is mounted on the linear module 202 and is used to clamp and limit the position of the lower iron yoke 300. Furthermore, preferably, the linear module 202 is mounted on the carrier plate 201 along the X-axis, and the clamping structure 203 is mounted on the linear module 202 to drive the linear module 202 for fine adjustment along the X-axis.
[0025] Furthermore, an infrared receiving sensor is installed on carrier plate 201; correspondingly, an infrared transmitter is installed on frame 501, which is in communication with the infrared receiver and is used to locate the position of carrier plate 201. The jig assembly 200, through the cooperation of the linear module 202 and the clamping structure 203 on carrier plate 201, can adjust the clamping position according to the core specifications. Combined with the positioning and calibration of the infrared receiving sensor and the transmitter on frame 501, it achieves adaptive clamping and precise positioning for cores with different numbers of cores, solving the time-consuming problem of traditional fixed jig changeovers and enhancing the production line's flexible production capabilities.
[0026] In addition, the preferred embodiment of the present invention also includes a data processing module, which is respectively connected to the first detection camera 406 and the second detection camera 505 for receiving image data collected by the first detection camera 406 and the second detection camera 505, and collecting position information according to the image data to control the first assembly component 400 and the second assembly component 500, as well as the conveyor belt component 100 to operate in coordination.
[0027] In actual use, the conveyor assembly 100 is positioned along the X-axis, with the jig structure mounted on the conveyor. Its carrier plate 201, driven by a linear module 202, drives the clamping structure 203 for fine-tuning along the X-axis. This, combined with communication and positioning between the infrared receiving sensor and the infrared emitter on the frame 501, ensures stable clamping and positional alignment of the lower yoke 300, eliminating the offset problem caused by traditional manual handling and providing a precise reference for subsequent assembly. The first assembly assembly 400, straddling the conveyor along the Y-axis, comprises a three-axis linkage structure composed of an X-axis moving unit, a Y-axis moving module on the frame 401, and a Z-axis moving unit on the slider. The gripper 405, driven by the slider, moves in opposite directions to synchronously grasp the workpiece. A first inspection camera 406 below the slider captures real-time image data of the lower yoke 300 and the workpiece on the workbench. This data is then processed by a data processing module to control the three-axis linkage, achieving precise connection of the insulating paper 601 to the number of cores and automated winding assembly. This replaces manual labor with a robotic arm, significantly improving assembly efficiency and consistency.
[0028] The data processing module and the first and second detection cameras 505 form a closed-loop control system, which receives image data in real time and calculates the workpiece position information, and synchronously controls the coordinated actions of the conveyor belt component 100, the first assembly component 400 and the second assembly component 500, forming an automatic control of the entire process from the sleeve connection of the insulating paper 601, the winding assembly to the pressing of the upper iron yoke, avoiding the accumulation of manual operation errors and improving the assembly accuracy and system stability.
[0029] On this basis, the present invention also provides a rapid assembly method for a transformer core, which is implemented using the above-mentioned rapid assembly system. The method includes the following steps: assembling the upper yoke of the core to the jig assembly 200, and assembling the jig assembly 200 to the conveyor belt assembly 100; the conveyor belt transports the jig assembly 200 loaded with the lower yoke 300 to the position of the first assembly assembly 400; the first assembly assembly 400 drives the clamping jaw 405 to move through the X-axis moving unit 402, the Y-axis moving unit 403 and the Z-axis moving unit 404, first clamping the insulating paper 601, and then clamping the corresponding number of insulating papers 601 according to the number of vertical core columns of the lower yoke 300, and sleeve the insulator onto the vertical core column of the lower yoke 300; then adjust the position of the lower yoke 300 in the X-axis direction, use the clamping jaw 405 on the other side to clamp the corresponding number of coil windings, and assemble them to the vertical core column of the lower yoke 300; complete the assembly operation of the lower yoke 300.
[0030] The assembly method relies on the above-mentioned system. The lower iron yoke 300 is first fixed to the jig and transported to the assembly station by the conveyor belt. The first assembly component 400 completes the insulation paper 601 sleeve and winding assembly through the three-axis linkage clamp 405. Subsequently, the second assembly component 500 automatically presses the upper iron yoke. Each process is precisely coordinated through visual inspection and data processing, which simplifies the complex process of traditional manual assembly, reduces labor intensity, and significantly improves the efficiency and reliability of iron core assembly.
[0031] It will be easily understood by those skilled in the art that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
