Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of engine component assembly equipment technology, and in particular to an automated valve lock clamp assembly device. Background Technology

[0002] Engine valve lock clips are key small components in the valve mechanism of internal combustion engines. Their core function is to firmly connect the valve spring seat and the valve stem, ensuring the stability of the valve during high-speed reciprocating motion. The most common valve lock clips are composed of two semi-conical metal plates with ribs or grooves on the inner wall, which achieve a precise fit with the annular groove of the valve stem.

[0003] In the assembly process of valve lock clips, two clips need to be joined together to form a valve lock clip. Then, the valve lock clip is installed into the clip groove, and finally, the clip groove containing the valve lock clip is pressed into the valve spring seat, which is installed in the engine block. Currently, the assembly of valve lock clips on automobile engines mainly relies on manual labor or semi-automatic equipment. Manual assembly is affected by the worker's skill level, which can lead to deviations in the consistency of valve lock clip assembly. Moreover, with the increase in automobile production, the efficiency of manual assembly cannot meet the demand. Semi-automatic equipment requires worker training. Secondly, the assembly of valve lock clips involves multiple processes such as matching, initial clamping, inspection, and secondary clamping. This requires manual transfer between multiple assembly processes. If workers on the assembly line are unable to work for any reason, the assembly efficiency of valve lock clips will also be affected. Furthermore, manual operation of each process is prone to quality problems such as omissions and misassemblies. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In order to reduce the impact of human factors on the production efficiency of valve lock clamp assembly and to ensure the overall quality of valve lock clamp assembly, this application provides an automated valve lock clamp assembly device.

[0005] The automated assembly equipment for valve lock clamps provided in this application adopts the following technical solution: An automated valve lock clamp assembly device includes: A rack having assembly positions, assembly positions, and retrieval positions; A first vibration transmission track is connected to the frame, and a first contouring channel is formed on the first vibration transmission track. The central axis of the locking groove remains vertical when it moves toward the assembly position within the first contouring channel. A swing table with a contoured surface is connected to the frame and is used to fix the engine cylinder block; A material transfer unit is connected to the frame and is used to realize the sequential movement of materials between the assembly position, the assembly position, the pick-up position and the valve spring seat port. A pressing unit is connected to the frame and is used to press the locking groove with valve lock clip at the valve spring seat port into the valve spring seat.

[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, the two locking clips are manually assembled into a valve lock clip and placed in the assembly position. Simultaneously, the first vibration transmission track transports the locking clip groove to the assembly position. Then, the material transfer unit picks up the valve lock clip and places it into the locking clip groove in the assembly position. After the valve lock clip and locking clip groove are assembled, the material transfer unit moves it to the pick-up position again. Then, the material transfer unit moves the locking clip groove containing the valve lock clip from the pick-up position to the valve spring seat port. The pressing unit then presses the locking clip groove into the valve spring seat, thus completing the assembly of the valve lock clip. The designed automatic valve lock clip... The assembly equipment uses a frame to easily form assembly, loading, and unloading positions. The first vibration transmission track can place the locking clamp groove into the assembly position in a specific posture. The material transfer unit can realize the sequential movement of materials between the assembly, loading, and unloading positions and the valve spring seat port. The swing table can realize the positioning of the engine block to facilitate the final installation of the valve lock clamp with the pressing unit. Since the manual intervention in the valve lock clamp assembly process is reduced, the production efficiency of valve lock clamp assembly is reduced from the influence of human factors, and the overall quality of valve lock clamp assembly is guaranteed.

[0007] In one specific implementation, a second vibration transmission track is installed on the frame, the second vibration transmission track is connected to the frame, and two second contour channels are formed on the second vibration transmission track. The two second contour channels are symmetrically arranged about the vertical plane. The central axis of the locking clip remains vertical when it moves toward the assembly position in the second contour channel, and the two locking clips are assembled at the assembly position to form a valve locking clip.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the designed second vibration transmission track can enable the two locking clips to enter the assembly position in a specific posture and obtain valve locking clips.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the designed feeding unit can realize the feeding action of the locking jaws and locking grooves through the vibrating feeding plate. The first arrangement of tracks can realize the connection between the discharge port of the vibrating feeding plate and the first vibrating transmission track, and realize the adjustment of the posture of the locking grooves during the connection process.

[0011] In one specific implementation, a detection position is also formed on the frame, and the material transfer unit is used to realize the sequential movement of materials between the assembly position, the detection position, the pick-up position and the valve spring seat port. Two sets of through-beam photoelectric sensors are connected to the frame. When the locking groove of the valve locking clamp moves to the detection position, the locking clamp petal is on the detection path of the through-beam photoelectric sensor.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the designed detection position can detect the position and attitude of the locking clip by passing a photoelectric sensor through the locking clip groove in the detection position, thereby determining whether the locking clip is properly assembled in the locking clip groove.

[0013] In one specific implementation scheme, a fixed track is connected to the frame, and a feeding chute and a waste discharge chute are formed on the fixed track. The intersection of the feeding chute and the waste discharge chute is a detection position.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the designed fixed track can be used as a discharge channel for unqualified locking grooves through the waste discharge chute, and the feeding chute can be used in conjunction with the second pushing cylinder to push the locking grooves from the detection position to the picking position along the feeding chute.

[0015] In one specific implementation, the material transfer unit includes: A first gripping robot arm is mounted on the frame and is used to grip the valve lock clamp from the assembly position to the assembly position and press the valve lock clamp into the lock clamp groove. The first pushing cylinder is mounted on the frame and is used to push the locking groove with valve lock clamp from the assembly position to the detection position. The first pushing cylinder can push the locking groove in the detection position into the waste discharge chute. The second pusher cylinder is mounted on the frame and is used to push the locking groove with the valve lock clamp from the detection position to the picking position along the feeding slide. A second gripping manipulator with multiple grippers is mounted on the frame and is used to grip the locking groove containing the valve lock clamp from the pick-up position to the valve spring seat port.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the designed material transfer unit can use a first gripping robot to grip the valve lock clamp from the assembly position to the assembly position, use a first pushing cylinder to push the lock clamp groove from the assembly position to the detection position, and push the lock clamp groove in the detection position into the waste discharge chute. Use a second pushing cylinder to push the lock clamp groove containing the valve lock clamp from the detection position to the pick-up position along the feeding chute. Use a second gripping robot to grip the lock clamp groove containing the valve lock clamp from the pick-up position to the valve spring seat port.

[0017] In one specific implementation scheme, a feeding block is slidably connected to one end of the fixed track. The feeding block has a contour cavity and forms a picking position. The sliding direction of the feeding block is horizontal and perpendicular to the sliding direction of the piston rod of the second pushing cylinder.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the designed feeding block can be easily used in conjunction with the second pushing cylinder to load materials at the picking position, and in conjunction with the second gripping robot to unload materials at the picking position.

[0019] In one specific implementation, the swing table is slidably connected to the frame, the sliding direction of the swing table is set horizontally, and the swing table is capable of swinging around a horizontal axis.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, the designed swing table can be easily used in conjunction with the pressing unit to press the locking groove.

[0021] In one specific implementation, the pressing unit includes: A lifting cylinder is connected to the frame, and a mounting block is connected to the piston rod of the lifting cylinder, the mounting block moving in the vertical direction; Multiple push-in rods are connected to the mounting block, and the push-in rods are capable of pressing the locking groove with the valve lock clip into the valve spring seat.

[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, the designed pressing unit can drive the mounting block to move in the vertical direction through the lifting cylinder, and can press the locking groove containing the valve lock into the valve spring seat through the pressing rod.

[0023] In one specific implementation scheme, multiple detection heads are slidably disposed on the mounting block, and the detection heads are connected to the mounting block by springs, with displacement sensors mounted on the detection heads.

[0024] By adopting the above technical solution, the designed detection head and displacement sensor can detect the position of the locking groove installed in the valve spring seat, thereby replacing manual judgment of the assembly quality of the locking groove.

[0025] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects: 1. The designed automated valve lock clamp assembly equipment facilitates the formation of assembly, disassembly, and retrieval positions via a frame.

A material transfer unit enables the sequential movement of materials between the assembly, disassembly, retrieval positions, and valve spring seat ports. A swing table enables the positioning of the engine block to facilitate the final installation of the valve lock clamp with the pressing unit. Because the number of manual steps involved in the valve lock clamp assembly is reduced, the production efficiency of valve lock clamp assembly is less affected by human factors, and the overall quality of valve lock clamp assembly is guaranteed.

[0036] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-7 This application will be described in further detail.

[0037] This application discloses an automated assembly device for valve lock clips.

[0038] Reference Figure 1An automated valve lock clamp assembly device includes a frame 1 and a material transfer unit 4. The frame 1 has an assembly position 11, an assembly position 12, and a pick-up position 13. The spatial shape of the assembly position 11 matches the shape of the two clamping pieces after assembly. The spatial shape of the assembly position 12 matches the shape of the clamping groove. The spatial shape of the pick-up position 13 matches the shape of the clamping groove. The material transfer unit 4 is used to realize the sequential movement of materials between the assembly position 11, the assembly position 12, the pick-up position 13, and the valve spring seat port. The material transfer unit 4 is connected to the frame 1.

[0039] Reference Figure 1 Specifically, a first vibration transmission track 2 is bolted to the frame 1, a vibration drive component is installed on the first vibration transmission track 2, and a first contouring channel 21 is formed on the first vibration transmission track 2. The cross-sectional shape of the first contouring channel 21 matches the cross-sectional shape of the locking groove, and the locking groove remains vertical as it moves toward the assembly position 12 within the first contouring channel 21 until it enters the assembly position 12.

[0040] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 Furthermore, a second vibration transmission track 6 is bolted to the frame 1. Two second contour channels 61 are formed on the second vibration transmission track 6. The two second contour channels 61 are symmetrically arranged about the vertical plane. The cross-sectional shape of the second contour channel 61 is the same as the side view shape of the locking clip. The central axis of the locking clip remains vertical as the locking clip moves towards the assembly position 11 within the second contour channel 61. After the locking clips in both second contour channels 61 enter the assembly position 11, they are assembled to form a valve locking clip.

[0041] Reference Figure 3 To facilitate the feeding of corresponding materials into the first contouring channel 21 and the second contouring channel 61, the valve lock clamp automated assembly equipment also includes a feeding unit 7. The feeding unit 7 includes a vibrating feeding plate 71, a first row of tracks 72, a second row of tracks 73, and a feeding hopper 74. There are two vibrating feeding plates 71, two second row of tracks 73, and two feeding hoppers 74. The two vibrating feeding plates 71 are used to realize the vibrating feeding of the lock clamp flap and the lock clamp groove, respectively. The inlet of the first row of tracks 72 is connected to the vibrating feeding plate 71 on which the lock clamp groove is placed, and the outlet of the first row of tracks 72 abuts against the entrance of the first contouring channel 21 of the first vibrating transmission track 2. The lock clamp groove gradually achieves posture adjustment as it moves from the first row of tracks 72 toward the entrance of the first contouring channel 21 on the first vibrating transmission track 2.

[0042] Reference Figure 3The discharge port of the second arrangement track 73 abuts against the entrance of the second contour channel 61 on the second vibration transmission track 6, and the inlet of the second arrangement track 73 is bolted to the vibrating feeding plate 71 on which the locking clip is placed. The locking clip gradually adjusts its posture as it moves toward the entrance of the second contour channel 61 on the second vibration transmission track 6 within the second arrangement track 73. The feeding hopper 74 is welded and fixed to the frame 1, and the discharge ports of the two feeding hoppers 74 are directly above the feeding area of ​​the vibrating feeding plate 71.

[0043] Reference Figure 3 Specifically, the material transfer unit 4 includes a first gripping robot 41, which is mounted on the frame 1. After being programmed and controlled, the first gripping robot 41 grips the valve lock clamp at the assembly position 11 and moves it to the assembly position 12. Then, it presses the valve lock clamp into the lock clamp groove to complete the assembly of the valve lock clamp and the lock clamp groove.

[0044] Reference Figure 4 After the valve lock clamp and the lock clamp groove are assembled, in order to determine whether the valve lock clamp is pressed into the lock clamp groove, or whether the lock clamp petal in the lock clamp groove is missing or has an incorrect posture, a detection position 14 is also formed on the frame 1. Two sets of through-beam photoelectric sensors 15 are bolted to the frame 1. The through-beam photoelectric sensors 15 include a pair of transmitters and receivers. When the lock clamp groove with the valve lock clamp moves to the detection position 14, the lock clamp petal is on the detection path of the transmitter and receiver.

[0045] Reference Figure 3 In order to move the locking groove with the locking clip from the assembly position 12 to the detection position 14 for detection, the material transfer unit 4 also includes a first pushing cylinder 42. The first pushing cylinder 42 is mounted on the frame 1, and a first feeding groove is formed on the frame 1 to connect the assembly position 12 and the detection position 14. The piston rod of the first pushing cylinder 42 extends so that the locking groove at the assembly position 12 moves along the first feeding groove to the detection position 14.

[0046] Reference Figure 4 Specifically, a fixed rail 8 is bolted to the frame 1, and a feeding chute 81 and a waste discharge chute 82 are formed on the fixed rail 8. The intersection of the feeding chute 81 and the waste discharge chute 82 is the detection position 14. A waste discharge cylinder is bolted to the frame 1. If the locking groove fails the test, the piston rod of the first pushing cylinder 42 extends into the waste discharge chute 82 and applies force to the locking groove at the detection position 14, so that the locking groove is discharged to the outside along the waste discharge chute 82.

[0047] Reference Figure 5Furthermore, the locking groove of the valve lock clamp needs to be installed into the valve spring seat. The valve spring seat is usually already installed on the engine block. In this embodiment, four valve spring seats are installed on the engine block, and the four valve spring seats are divided into two groups. Therefore, the valve lock clamp automated assembly equipment also includes a swing table 3. The top wall of the swing table 3 has a contoured surface that matches the outline of the engine block to achieve the position locking of the engine block. The swing table 3 is connected to the frame 1. Specifically, the swing table 3 is installed on a sliding plate. The sliding plate is slidably connected to the frame 1, and two fixing strips are welded and fixed on the sliding plate. The swing table 3 is rotatably connected to the fixing strips, so that the swing table 3 swings around the horizontal axis under the control of the stepper motor.

[0048] Reference Figure 5 Furthermore, after the locking groove completes the inspection and passes the inspection at the detection position 14, it needs to move along the feeding chute 81 to the pick-up position 13, and then move to the port of the valve spring seat via the material transfer unit 4. Therefore, a feeding block 9 is slidably connected to one end of the fixed track 8. The feeding block 9 has a contour cavity and forms the pick-up position 13. The horizontal sliding of the feeding block 9 can be achieved by a telescopic cylinder or by other structures.

[0049] Reference Figure 5 The material transfer unit 4 also includes a second pushing cylinder 43 and a second gripping robot 44. The second pushing cylinder 43 is bolted to the frame 1 and is used to push the locking groove with valve lock clamp along the feeding slide 81 to the pick-up position 13 on the feeding block 9. The second gripping robot 44 is mounted on the frame 1 and has multiple gripping heads. In this embodiment, the number of gripping heads on the second gripping robot 44 is two. The second gripping robot 44 is used to grip the locking groove with valve lock clamp from the pick-up position 13 to the valve spring seat port.

[0050] Reference Figure 6 and Figure 7 At this time, in order to press the locking groove into the valve spring seat, the valve lock clamp automated assembly equipment also includes a pressing unit 5. The pressing unit 5 is connected to the frame 1. Specifically, the pressing unit 5 includes a lifting cylinder 51, a mounting block 52, and multiple pressing rods 53. The lifting cylinder 51 is bolted to the frame 1, and the piston rod of the lifting cylinder 51 is bolted to the mounting block 52. The mounting block 52 moves in the vertical direction. The pressing rods 53 are inserted into the mounting block 52 and locked with screws. The pressing rods 53 can press the locking groove with the valve lock clamp at the valve spring seat port into the valve spring seat. In this application, the number of pressing rods 53 on the mounting block 52 is the same as the number of valve spring seats in the same group. Since there are two valve spring seats in the same group in this embodiment, there are two pressing rods 53 on the mounting block 52.

[0051] Reference Figure 6 and Figure 7 After the pressing action is completed, in order to determine whether the locking groove is pressed into place, multiple detection heads 54 are slidably arranged on the mounting block 52. In this embodiment, the number of detection heads 54 is the same as the number of pressing rods 53. The detection heads 54 are connected to the mounting block 52 by springs, and a displacement sensor is connected to the detection head 54. The mounting block 52 is driven to move by the lifting cylinder 51, and the mounting block 52 drives the detection head 54 to move a set distance. If the displacement data on the displacement sensor is inconsistent with the standard value, it indicates that there is a deviation in the installation position of the locking groove.

[0052] The implementation principle of the automated valve lock clamp assembly equipment in this application embodiment is as follows: Two lock clamp pieces are manually assembled into a valve lock clamp and placed in the assembly position 11. Simultaneously, the first vibration transmission track 2 transmits the lock clamp groove to the assembly position 12. Then, the material transfer unit 4 picks up the valve lock clamp and places it into the lock clamp groove of the assembly position 12. After the valve lock clamp and lock clamp groove are assembled, they are moved again to the detection position 14 via the material transfer unit 4. Next, the qualified lock clamp groove is moved to the pick-up position 13 via the material transfer unit 4. Then, the lock clamp groove containing the valve lock clamp is moved to the valve spring seat port via the pick-up position 13 via the material transfer unit 4. The pressing unit 5 then presses the lock clamp groove into the valve spring seat port. The valve lock clamp is assembled inside the valve spring seat. The frame 1 facilitates the formation of assembly position 11, assembly position 12, and take-up position 13. The first vibration transmission track 2 can place the lock clamp groove into the assembly position 12 in a specific posture. The material transfer unit 4 can realize the sequential movement of materials between the assembly position 11, assembly position 12, take-up position 13, and valve spring seat port. The swing table 3 can realize the positioning of the engine cylinder block, so as to cooperate with the pressing unit 5 to realize the final installation of the valve lock clamp. Since the manual participation in the valve lock clamp assembly process is reduced, the production efficiency of valve lock clamp assembly is reduced from the influence of human factors and the overall quality of valve lock clamp assembly is guaranteed.

[0053] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
