[0089] The automatic assembly mechanism 13 is further provided with a press-fitting assembly, which comprises a driving motor III 139 fixed on the top of a connecting base 138, a bearing support seat 1312 is fixed on the top of the connecting base 138, a connecting guide pipe II 1313 is rotatably arranged in the bearing support seat 1312 and the automatic chuck 1310 through bearings, a locking nut ring 1314 is fixed on the bottom of the connecting guide pipe II 1313, a transmission screw III 1316 is threadedly arranged in the locking nut ring 1314, a flat surface is formed on the outer wall of the transmission screw III 1316, a sliding ring 1315 is slidably sleeved on the flat surface, the sliding ring 1315 is fixed in the automatic chuck 1310, the bottom of the transmission screw III 1316 extends to the bottom of the automatic chuck 1310 and is fixedly sleeved with a pressing plate 1311, and the top of the connecting guide pipe II 1313 is fixedly connected with the output end of the driving motor III 139. After the elastic buffer pad 7 and the dustproof ring 8 are sleeved, the automatic chuck 1310 clamps and moves to the top of the bearing, the driving motor III 139 is started, the transmission screw III 1316 is driven to rotate through the connecting guide pipe II 1313, the transmission screw III 1316 is threadedly connected with the locking nut ring 1314, and the sliding ring 1315 limits the rotation of the transmission screw III 1316, the transmission screw III 1316 moves downward, the pressing plate 1311 is driven to move downward, the elastic buffer pad 7 and the dustproof ring 8 are press-fitted on the inner ring I 1 and the outer ring II 2, and the assembly of the bearing is completed.
[0090] Working principle: first, the conveyor I 9 is started, the synchronous belt drive of the conveyor belt is operated, and the conveyor base plate 91 is driven to move. The operator or the mechanical hand places the outer ring II 2 on the V-shaped positioning block I 92 on the conveyor base plate 91, pushes the V-shaped positioning block II 95, the guide slide rod 94 slides in the fixed base block 93, the compression spring I 96 is compressed, the spring force is used to clamp the outer ring II 2 by the V-shaped positioning block I 92 and the V-shaped positioning block II 95, the clamping force is kept at 50-100 N, and it is ensured that the outer ring II 2 will not be loose during the conveying process.
[0091] When the conveyor base plate 91 provided with the outer ring II 2 is conveyed to the position below the grease injection mechanism 14, the photoelectric sensor detects the signal and transmits it to the control system, the control system instructs the driving cylinder I 143 to work. The driving cylinder I 143 drives the sliding block 142 to slide along the linear guide rail, drives the grease injection disc 145 to move, and stops at the position above the bearing. Then, the grease injection pump delivers the lubricating grease to the grease injection disc 145 through the connecting guide pipe I 144 according to the set flow rate, the grease injection disc 145 is injected into the gap between the inner ring I 1 and the outer ring II 2 through the through hole at the bottom of the grease injection disc 145, and the precise grease injection is realized. After the grease injection is completed, the driving cylinder I 143 drives the sliding block 142 to reset, and the conveyor I 9 continues to convey the bearing to the next station.
[0092] When the bearing is conveyed under the automatic lubricating mechanism 15, the photoelectric sensor detects the position again, and the control system starts the driving cylinder II 153. The driving cylinder II 153 pushes the lifting slide II 152 to descend along the linear guide rail, and the abutting plate 157 first contacts the outer ring II 2. As the lifting slide II 152 continues to descend, the compression spring II 156 is compressed, and the abutting plate 157 tightly presses the outer ring II 2. At the same time, the transmission driving disc 159 contacts the inner ring I 1. At this time, the driving motor IV 158 starts to drive the transmission driving disc 159 to rotate, and then drives the inner ring I 1 to rotate in the outer ring II 2 for 5-10s, so that the injected grease is uniformly distributed in the gap under the action of centrifugal force, ensuring that each part of the bearing can be fully lubricated. After lubrication is completed, the driving cylinder II 153 drives the lifting slide II 152 to rise and reset, and the conveyor I 9 conveys the bearing to the assembly station.
[0093] When the conveyor I 9 conveys the bearing, the conveyors II 11 on both sides are also working. The chain conveyor plate of the conveyor II 11 drives the movement base plate 112 to move, and the positioning pin 113 on the movement base plate 112 is inserted into the positioning groove 115 of the positioning cylinder I 116 and the positioning cylinder II 117, achieving precise positioning of the two. The positioning cylinder I 116 is provided with an elastic buffer pad 7, and the positioning cylinder II 117 is provided with a dustproof ring 8, which are conveyed into the working range of the automatic assembly mechanism 13, respectively.
[0094] When the automatic assembly mechanism 13 starts to work, the driving motor I 132 starts to drive the transmission screw I 133 to rotate, and under the action of the ball nut, the movement slide 134 slides along the linear guide rail on the support main body 131, so that the automatic chuck 1310 moves above the positioning cylinder II 117. Then, the driving motor II 135 starts to drive the transmission screw II 137 to rotate, so that the lifting slide I 136 descends along the linear guide rail on the movement slide 134, and the automatic chuck 1310 closes to clamp the positioning cylinder II 117. Then, the driving motor II 135 reverses to drive the lifting slide I 136 to rise, and the driving motor I 132 reverses to drive the movement slide 134 to move, conveying the positioning cylinder II 117 above the positioning cylinder I 116 and keeping them concentric.
[0095] At this time, the lifting assembly below the positioning cylinder 116 starts to work, the electric drive push rod 162 pushes the extension rod 166 to rise at a speed of 50 mm / s, drives the lifting plate 165 to slide upwards along the positioning guide pipe 164, the lifting plate 165 pushes the elastic buffer pad 7 in the positioning cylinder 116 to move upwards, and the press-fitting assembly starts to work, the driving motor 1139 is started, drives the connecting guide pipe 12113 to rotate, and further drives the transmission screw 13116 to rotate. Since the transmission screw 13116 is in threaded connection with the locking nut ring 1314, and the sliding ring 1315 limits the rotation of the transmission screw 1316, the transmission screw 13116 can only move downwards, and drives the pressing plate 1311 to move the dustproof ring 8 downwards with a certain pressure. The cooperation of the two makes the elastic buffer pad 7 sleeved on the dustproof ring 8 in the positioning cylinder 117. Due to the guiding effect of the positioning guide pipe 164, the coaxial error between the elastic buffer pad 7 and the dustproof ring 8 is controlled within 0.1 mm, so that the sleeving is accurate. After the sleeving is completed, the electric drive push rod 162 drives the extension rod 166 to descend and reset.
[0096] The driving motors 1132 and 1135 of the automatic assembly mechanism 13 work again, and the dustproof ring 8 sleeved with the elastic buffer pad 7 is transported to the bearing assembly position. At this time, the press-fitting assembly starts to work, the driving motor 1139 is started, drives the connecting guide pipe 12113 to rotate, and further drives the transmission screw 13116 to rotate. Since the transmission screw 13116 is in threaded connection with the locking nut ring 1314, and the sliding ring 1315 limits the rotation of the transmission screw 1316, the transmission screw 13116 can only move downwards, and drives the pressing plate 1311 to press the elastic buffer pad 7 and the dustproof ring 8 on the inner ring 1 and the outer ring 2 with a certain pressure, and completes the final assembly of the bearing. After the press-fitting is completed, the driving motors are reversed, drive the related parts to reset, and drive the positioning cylinder 117 to be transported to the upper side of the positioning cylinder 116 again, the elastic buffer pad 7 is sleeved on the dustproof ring 8 in the positioning cylinder 117, and the preparation for the assembly of the next bearing is completed.
