Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of automation equipment technology, and more specifically to a fully automated power cord production line. Background Technology

[0002] Power cords are required for various common household and office appliances. A power cord typically consists of a cable and connectors at both ends. One connector is used to connect to an external power source, and the other is used to connect to the electrical equipment. Current technology for producing power cords usually requires the use of multiple machines working together, including cutting, stripping, riveting, and injection molding equipment. These machines operate independently, with operators handling loading and unloading, resulting in relatively low efficiency. Summary of the Invention

The terms "first," "second," etc., in the specification, claims, or foregoing drawings are used to distinguish different objects, not to describe a particular order.

[0035] In this invention, the reference to "embodiment" means that a specific feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with an embodiment may be included in at least one embodiment of the invention. The appearance of this phrase in various places in the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a mutually exclusive, independent, or alternative embodiment to other embodiments. It will be explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described in this invention can be combined with other embodiments.

[0036] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0037] like Figure 1-18 As shown, a fully automated power cord production line includes a peeling and riveting device 100, a head and tail forming device 200, and a bundling and packaging device 300 connected in sequence. A transition robot 400 is provided between the peeling and riveting device 100 and the head and tail forming device 200, and a material unloading robot 500 is provided between the head and tail forming device 200 and the bundling and packaging device 300.

[0038] like Figure 3 As shown, the wire stripping and riveting equipment 100 includes a first base 1, on which a first conveying mechanism 2 is provided. The first conveying mechanism 2 can be driven by a synchronous conveying chain, and a wire clamp 201 for clamping the wire is installed on it. The first conveying mechanism 2 can convey the wire in a step-by-step manner. Along the conveying direction of the first conveying mechanism 2, a cutting mechanism 3, a tail-end wire stripping and riveting mechanism, and a head-end wire stripping and riveting mechanism 600 are sequentially arranged on the first base 1.

[0039] A wire feeder is placed on one side of the first base 1, which is used to hold a whole roll of wire. The cutting mechanism 3 is used to draw the whole roll of wire from the wire feeder and cut it precisely into a preset fixed length. The cutting mechanism 3 is equipped with a head turning mechanism 301, which is used to clamp one end of the wire and can drive one end of the wire to rotate 180°. The first conveying mechanism 2 is equipped with a cutting and picking clamp 202 at a position corresponding to the cutting mechanism 3. The cutting and picking clamp 202 can grab the wire from the cutting mechanism 3 and place the two ends of the cut wire onto the clamp 201 respectively. The clamp 201 holds the two ends of the wire and then conveys it to the downstream station. The tail-end stripping and riveting mechanism is used to strip the insulation from one end of the cut wire and rivet the connecting terminals. Specifically, it includes a tail-end stripping mechanism 4 for stripping the insulation from one end of the wire; a tail-end powder brushing mechanism 5 for removing talcum powder from the wire core after the insulation has been removed; a tail-end wire core alignment and sorting mechanism for separating and aligning the stripped wire cores in a preset direction; a tail-end core stripping mechanism 6 for stripping the insulation from each wire core; a tail-end riveting mechanism 7 for riveting the connecting terminals onto the stripped wire cores; and a tail-end casing fitting mechanism 8 for pressing a casing onto the wire cores with the connecting terminals. During processing, the wire is conveyed to the tail-end stripping mechanism 4 via a first conveying mechanism 2, and then sequentially conveyed to the tail-end powder brushing mechanism 5, the tail-end wire core alignment and sorting mechanism, the tail-end core stripping mechanism 6, the tail-end riveting mechanism 7, and the tail-end casing fitting mechanism 8.

[0040] It should be noted that a tail-end wire core CCD detection mechanism 9 is also provided between the tail-end stripping mechanism 6 and the tail-end riveting mechanism 7. The wire can be conveyed to the detection position of the tail-end wire core CCD detection mechanism 9 by the first conveying mechanism 2. At this time, the wire core has been stripped of its insulation. The tail-end wire core CCD detection mechanism 9 takes a picture of the wire core to determine whether the stripping of the tail-end wire core is qualified, such as whether the stripping length is qualified and whether there is any rubber residue. By setting the tail-end wire core CCD detection mechanism 9, it can be ensured that the wire flowing into the tail-end riveting mechanism 7 is qualified in stripping, and the power line after riveting can realize current transmission.

[0041] The head stripping and riveting mechanism 600 is used to strip the insulation from the other end of the cut wire and rivet the connecting terminal. The transition robot 400 is connected to the first conveying mechanism 2 and is used to transfer the wire with the connecting terminals riveted at both ends to the head and tail forming equipment 200. The structure of the head stripping and riveting mechanism 600 is basically the same as that of the tail stripping and riveting mechanism, the only difference being the connecting terminals riveted. In addition, since the head riveting terminal already has a plastic shell attached, the head stripping and riveting mechanism 600 does not need to be equipped with a separate mechanism for installing the plastic shell. That is, after the riveting mechanism on the head stripping and riveting mechanism 600 completes the crimping of the connecting terminal, it can simultaneously crimp the connecting terminal and the plastic shell at the head to the end of the wire.

[0042] like Figure 4 As shown, the head-and-tail forming equipment 200 includes a second base 12, on which a second conveying mechanism 13 is provided. The second conveying mechanism 13 has the same structure as the first conveying mechanism 2. Along the conveying direction of the second conveying mechanism 13, the second base 12 is sequentially equipped with a tail-end spacing transfer mechanism 14, a tail-end injection molding machine 15, a head-end spacing transfer mechanism 16, and a head-end injection molding machine 17. The tail-end spacing transfer mechanism 14 is used to grab the products from the second conveying mechanism 13 and convey them to the tail-end injection molding machine 15 at preset intervals. The head-end spacing transfer mechanism 16 is used to grab the products from the second conveying mechanism 13 and convey them to the head-end injection molding machine 17 at preset intervals. A material unloading robot 500 is connected to the second conveying mechanism 13 and is used to grab the processed products and place them onto the bundling and packaging equipment 300. Both the tail-end injection molding machine 15 and the head-end injection molding machine 17 can adopt existing injection molding machine structures; therefore, the specific structures of the head-end injection molding machine 17 and the tail-end injection molding machine 15 will not be described in detail here.

[0043] like Figure 18 As shown, the bundling and packaging equipment 300 includes a receiving robot 301, a winding mechanism 302, a packaging robot 303, and a bundling mechanism 304. The receiving robot 301 is connected to the unloading robot 500 and receives finished power cords from the unloading robot 500, placing them onto the winding mechanism 302. The winding mechanism 302 has a rotating disc and a wire clamping device, which automatically winds the power cords into neat coils, realizing the function of winding the finished power cords. The packaging robot 303 is connected to both the winding mechanism 302 and the bundling mechanism 304, and is used to pick up the wound products from the winding mechanism 302 and place them onto the bundling mechanism 304. The bundling mechanism 304 is used to bundle and package the wound power cords; it completes the bundling and packaging operation of the coils, ultimately outputting the finished product. The bundling mechanism 304 can use existing mechanical devices such as automatic cable ties or tape wrapping machines.

[0044] This fully automated power cord production line integrates three core processes—stripping and riveting, head and tail injection molding, and bundling and packaging—into a single production line. It achieves seamless connection between processes through transitional robotic arms 400 and unloading robotic arms 500, completely replacing the traditional manual loading, unloading, transfer, and positioning operations between processes. This enables fully automated production from whole rolls of wire to packaged finished products, greatly improving production efficiency.

[0045] like Figure 5 As shown, the tail-end wire core alignment and splitting mechanism includes a wire core alignment component 10 and a wire core splitting component 11. The wire core alignment component 10 and the wire core splitting component 11 are respectively connected to the first conveying mechanism 2. The first conveying mechanism 2 can convey the wire after the talcum powder is removed by the tail-end powder brushing mechanism 5 to the wire core alignment component 10, then convey the wire processed by the wire core alignment component 10 to the wire core splitting component 11, and finally convey the wire processed by the wire core splitting component 11 to the tail-end core stripping mechanism 6. The wire core alignment component 10 is used to sort the wire cores according to a preset direction, and the wire core splitting component 11 is used to separate and align the individual wire cores of the wire.

[0046] Specifically, the wire core alignment assembly 10 includes an alignment clamping mechanism 101, a rotation mechanism 102, and a flattening mechanism 103. The alignment clamping mechanism 101 is used to clamp multiple wire cores on the first conveying mechanism 2. The rotation mechanism 102 is connected to the alignment clamping mechanism 101 and is used to drive the alignment clamping mechanism 101 to rotate with the wire cores, so that the multiple wire cores are arranged in a preset direction. The flattening mechanism 103 is used to flatten the multiple wire cores clamped by the alignment clamping mechanism 101. By flattening each wire core by the flattening mechanism 103, the subsequent wire core separating assembly 11 can clamp and separate each wire core.

[0047] The wire core separating assembly 11 includes a positioning mechanism 111, a wire clamping mechanism 112, and a wire core opening mechanism 113. The positioning mechanism 111 is fixedly installed on the first conveying mechanism 2 and is used to clamp and fix the wires on the first conveying mechanism 2 at corresponding positions on the wire core separating assembly 11. The positioning mechanism 111 can fix the wires on the wire core separating assembly 11, thereby avoiding the problem of wire displacement during the separating process. The wire clamping mechanism 112 is used to clamp multiple wire cores on the first conveying mechanism 2 and straighten the wire cores. By clamping and straightening each wire core by the wire clamping mechanism 112, it is easier for the wire core opening mechanism 113 to pull out and separate each wire core. The wire core opening mechanism 113 is used to separate the multiple wire cores on the wire clamping mechanism 112 into a suitable angle according to a preset order.

[0048] In the specific processing, the first conveying mechanism 2 conveys the stripped wire to the wire core alignment assembly 10. First, the alignment clamping mechanism 101 clamps each wire core. Then, the rotating mechanism 102 drives the alignment clamping mechanism 101 to rotate, and the alignment clamping mechanism 101 rotates with the wire cores until the wire cores are aligned in a preset direction, at which point the rotation stops. Then, the flattening mechanism 103 flattens and flattens the multiple wire cores clamped by the alignment clamping mechanism 101. After that, the alignment clamping mechanism 101 and the flattening mechanism 103 release the wire, and the first conveying mechanism 2 conveys the wire to the wire core splitting assembly 11. The control positioning mechanism 111 clamps and fixes the wire. Then, the splitting clamping mechanism 112 clamps multiple wire cores, stretches and straightens them, and then the wire core opening mechanism 113 separates the multiple wire cores on the splitting clamping mechanism 112 into a suitable angle according to a preset order. Then, the positioning mechanism 111, the wire clamping mechanism 112 and the wire core opening mechanism 113 are controlled to release the wire core, and then the wire is transported to the next station through the first conveying mechanism 2.

[0049] The combination of the wire core alignment component 10 and the wire core splitting component 11 can sort multiple wire cores on the wire in a preset direction and separate each wire core to a suitable angle in the preset direction, so that the terminals of each wire core can be riveted and connected in the subsequent process. This improves the automation level of the equipment and thus improves efficiency.

[0050] like Figure 6-7 As shown, the wire core alignment assembly 10 also includes an alignment mounting frame 104, which is fixedly connected to the first base 1. The alignment clamping mechanism 101, the rotation mechanism 102, and the flattening mechanism 103 are respectively mounted on the alignment mounting frame 104. The alignment mounting frame 104 is also equipped with a CCD imaging assembly 105 and a linear laser lamp 106. The linear laser lamp 106 is used to illuminate the wire core on the alignment clamping mechanism 101. By illuminating the wire core with the linear laser lamp 106, the CCD imaging assembly 105 can acquire a high-definition image of the wire core. The CCD imaging assembly 105 is used to capture images of the wire core on the alignment clamping mechanism 101. During the actual processing, the outer sheath of the wire is stripped by the tail-end stripping mechanism 4, and the position of each wire core is random. When the first conveying mechanism 2 conveys the wire to the wire core alignment component 10, the alignment clamping mechanism 101 clamps all the wire cores. Then, the linear laser lamp 106 illuminates the wire cores, and then the CCD imaging component 105 acquires an image of the wire cores to determine the position of each wire core. If the position of each wire core in the acquired image does not match the pre-approved position, the rotation mechanism 102 is controlled to drive the alignment clamping mechanism 101 to rotate the wire until the position of each wire core matches the pre-approved position. Then, the flattening mechanism 103 is controlled to flatten each wire core so that the subsequent wire core separating component 11 can separate each wire core according to the preset position.

[0051] The alignment clamping mechanism 101 includes an alignment fixing block 1011, which is connected to the alignment mounting frame 104. The alignment fixing block 1011 is provided with an alignment clamping cylinder 1012 and two alignment clamping claws 1013. The alignment clamping claws 1013 are hinged to the alignment fixing block 1011. The output end of the alignment clamping cylinder 1012 is provided with an alignment clamping push block 1014. One end of the alignment clamping claw 1013 abuts against the alignment clamping push block 1014. The alignment clamping push block 1014 can push the alignment clamping claw 1013 to rotate and swing. In actual operation, after the wire is delivered to the corresponding position of the wire straightening and clamping mechanism 101, the wire straightening and clamping cylinder 1012 is controlled to push the wire straightening and clamping push block 1014. The wire straightening and clamping push block 1014 will push the wire straightening claw 1013 to rotate and swing along the hinge, so that the two wire straightening claws 1013 close together until the two wire straightening claws 1013 clamp the wire.

[0052] Specifically, elastic elements (not shown in the figure) are respectively provided at corresponding positions on the alignment fixing block 1011 and the alignment gripper 1013. The other end of the elastic element is connected to the corresponding alignment gripper 1013. The elastic element can pull the two alignment grippers 1013 to rotate and swing along the hinge, so that the two alignment grippers 1013 open with each other. The alignment clamping push block 1014 is symmetrically provided with two pushing inclined surfaces 1015. The end of the alignment gripper 1013 near the alignment clamping push block 1014 is provided with a sliding wheel 1016. The sliding wheel 1016 abuts against the pushing inclined surface 1015 and can roll on the pushing inclined surface 1015. Normally, the tension of the elastic element causes the two alignment jaws 1013 to separate. When the alignment clamping cylinder 1012 extends, it drives the alignment clamping push block 1014 to move. The two pushing ramps 1015 on the alignment clamping push block 1014 press against the sliding wheel 1016, causing the sliding wheel 1016 to roll on the pushing ramps 1015. This causes the two alignment jaws 1013 to close together and stretch or compress the elastic element until the two alignment jaws 1013 clamp the wire. When releasing the wire, the alignment clamping cylinder 1012 retracts, driving the alignment clamping push block 1014 to reset. At this time, the sliding wheel 1016 rolls on the pushing ramps 1015, and the elastic force of the elastic element pulls the two alignment jaws 1013 apart, causing them to open to their initial position.

[0053] The rotating mechanism 102 includes a rotating drive motor 1021, which is fixedly mounted on the alignment mounting bracket 104. A rotatable driven wheel 1022 is mounted on the alignment fixing block 1011. The alignment gripper 1013 is hinged to the driven wheel 1022. A rotating drive wheel 1023 is provided on the output end of the rotating drive motor 1021. A transmission belt 1024 is sleeved on the rotating drive wheel 1023 and the driven wheel 1022. When the image acquired by the CCD imaging component 105 shows that the arrangement of the wire cores held on the alignment gripper 1013 does not conform to the pre-approved arrangement, the rotating drive motor 1021 is controlled to work, driving the driven wheel 1022 to rotate through the transmission belt 1024, causing the alignment gripper 1013 and the wire cores to rotate synchronously until the wire cores are aligned to the preset arrangement position. For example, the preset arrangement of the three-core wires is red-yellow-blue from left to right; however, during processing, the CCD imaging component 105 captures images of the wires on the alignment gripper 1013 arranged in blue-yellow-red from left to right. Therefore, the rotary drive motor 1021 needs to be controlled to drive the driven wheel 1022 to rotate 180°. After the driven wheel 1022 drives the alignment gripper 1013 to rotate 180°, the arrangement of the wires on the alignment gripper 1013 will match the preset arrangement.

[0054] In other embodiments, the motor pulley structure on the rotating mechanism 102 can also be replaced by a motor gear set structure or other structures or devices capable of driving rotation.

[0055] The flattening mechanism 103 includes a flattening cylinder 1031 and two symmetrically arranged flattening jaws 1032. The flattening cylinder 1031 is fixedly mounted on the aligning block 1011. One end of the flattening jaw 1032 is hinged to the aligning block 1011. A flattening drive block 1033 is provided on the output end of the flattening cylinder 1031. The flattening drive block 1033 is hinged to the middle of the flattening jaw 1032 respectively, and the flattening drive block 1033 can drive the two flattening jaws 1032 to close or open with each other. In the initial state, the flattening cylinder 1031 is in the extended state, causing the two flattening jaws 1032 to open up to each other. In actual operation, after the rotating mechanism 102 adjusts the wire cores on the aligning jaws 1013 to the preset sorting position, the flattening cylinder 1031 is controlled to retract. The flattening cylinder 1031 pulls the flattening drive block 1033 to move. The flattening drive block 1033 pulls the two flattening jaws 1032 to rotate and swing along the hinge of the aligning fixing block 1011, so that the two flattening jaws 1032 close up to each other until the two flattening jaws 1032 flatten and flatten each wire core on the aligning jaws 1013. After the wire core is flattened, the flattening cylinder 1031 is extended to push the flattening drive block 1033, which in turn drives the two flattening grippers 1032 to open and release the wire core. At the same time, the straightening clamping cylinder 1012 is retracted to drive the straightening grippers 1013 to open and release the wire core. Then, the flattened and straightened wire is transported to the wire core splitting assembly 11 through the first conveying mechanism 2.

[0056] like Figure 8-9 As shown, the wire core splitting assembly 11 includes a splitting mounting frame 114, which is fixedly connected to the first base 1. A splitting clamping mechanism 112 and a wire core opening mechanism 113 are respectively mounted on the splitting mounting frame 114. The splitting clamping mechanism 112 includes a straightening cylinder 1121, which is connected to the splitting mounting frame 114. A clamping claw mounting plate 1122 is provided on the output end of the straightening cylinder 1121. A splitting claw cylinder 1123 is provided on the clamping claw mounting plate 1122. Two splitting claws 1124 are provided on the output end of the splitting claw cylinder 1123. In specific operation, after the first conveying mechanism 2 conveys the flattened and aligned wire to the processing position of the wire core separating assembly 11, the positioning mechanism 111 is first controlled to work to clamp and fix the wire; then the straightening cylinder 1121 is controlled to extend, driving the gripper mounting plate 1122 and the separating gripper cylinder 1123 to move to the wire core position, at which point the two separating grippers 1124 are located on both sides of the wire core; then the separating gripper cylinder 1123 is controlled to work, driving the two separating grippers 1124 to close together and clamp all the flattened and aligned wire cores; then the straightening cylinder 1121 is controlled to retract, and the separating grippers 1124 will slide on the wire core, thereby straightening all the aligned and sorted wire cores; so that the subsequent wire core opening mechanism 113 can separate the wire cores.

[0057] The wire core opening mechanism 113 includes a wire separating cylinder 1131, which is fixedly mounted on a wire separating mounting bracket 114. The mounting bracket 114 has two wire separating guide rails 1132 arranged in a figure-eight pattern. Two wire-pulling components are provided at the output end of the wire separating cylinder 1131. These components can pull out the wire cores from the wire separating jaws 1124. Each wire-pulling component has a wire-pulling guide block 1133, which slidably engages with the wire separating guide rails 1132. By using the two figure-eight-shaped wire separating guide rails 1132, one wire separating cylinder 1131 can drive two wire-pulling components to open or close obliquely, thereby separating the two wire cores to a suitable angle. In actual operation, after the wire clamping mechanism 112 clamps and straightens all the wire cores, the wire separating cylinder 1131 is controlled to operate. The wire separating cylinder 1131 drives the two wire pulling components and the wire separating guide block 1133 to slide on the corresponding wire separating guide rail 1132, so that the two wire pulling components close together until each wire pulling component is aligned with the corresponding wire core of the wire. Then, the wire pulling components are controlled to pull out the corresponding wire cores on the wire separating jaws 1124. After that, the wire separating cylinder 1131 is controlled to reset. 1. Drive two wire-picking assemblies and wire-separating guide blocks 1133 to slide on the corresponding wire-separating guide rails 1132, so that the two wire-picking assemblies separate from each other. The wire-picking assemblies push the corresponding wire cores to open until each wire core is separated to a preset angle. Then control the wire-picking assemblies to reset, so that they are disengaged from the wire cores. Then control the wire-separating gripper cylinder 1123 to release the wire cores, and at the same time control the positioning mechanism 111 to release the wire. Finally, the wire is transported to the next station through the first conveying mechanism 2 to complete the alignment and wire-separating work of the wire cores on the wire.

[0058] Specifically, the wire-separating assembly includes a wire-separating mounting block 1134, a wire-separating guide block 1133 connected to the wire-separating mounting block 1134, a limiting slider 1135 on the wire-separating mounting block 1134, and a limiting guide rail 1136 on the output end of the wire-separating cylinder 1131. The limiting slider 1135 and the limiting guide rail 1136 are slidably engaged. When the wire-separating cylinder 1131 is working, it drives the limiting guide rail 1136 to move. The limiting guide rail 1136 pulls the wire-separating mounting block 1134 and the wire-separating guide block 1133 to slide along the wire-separating guide rail 1132. Limited and guided by the two wire-separating guide rails 1132, the two wire-separating mounting blocks 1134 move closer or further apart, thereby realizing the wire-separating function. At the same time, the limiting slider 1135 will also slide on the limiting guide rail 1136; through the sliding cooperation between the limiting slider 1135 and the limiting guide rail 1136, the wire-picking mounting block 1134 can slide stably on the wire-picking guide rail 1132, improving the stability of the structure and the accuracy of the transmission.

[0059] The wire-picking mounting block 1134 is equipped with a wire-picking claw cylinder 1137. The output end of the wire-picking claw cylinder 1137 is equipped with two wire-picking blocks 1138. The wire-picking blocks 1138 can pull out the wire core on the wire-picking claw 1124. In the initial state, the two wire-picking blocks 1138 on the wire-picking claw cylinder 1137 are in the open state. During operation, after the wire-separating cylinder 1131 drives the two wire-picking components to align with the corresponding wire cores on the wire-separating claw 1124, the wire-picking claw cylinder 1137 is controlled to work, driving the two wire-picking blocks 1138 to close together. The two wire-picking blocks 1138 will be inserted into the gap between two adjacent wire cores. Then, the wire-separating cylinder 1131 is controlled to work, driving the two wire-picking components to separate from each other along the wire-separating guide rail 1132. The wire-separating clamp 201 will pull out the wire cores on both sides of the wire-separating claw 1124 and push the wire cores near the inner side of the wire-separating clamp 201 to open, thereby separating the wire cores so that the three wire cores on the wire are fan-shaped, so that the terminals can be crimped and connected in the subsequent work station.

[0060] The structure of the head stripping and riveting mechanism 600 is basically the same as that of the tail end lever riveting mechanism. The only difference is the riveting connection terminal. In addition, since the head riveting terminal already has a rubber shell, the head stripping and riveting mechanism 600 does not need to be equipped with a separate mechanism for installing the rubber shell. That is, after the riveting mechanism on the head stripping and riveting mechanism 600 completes the riveting, it can simultaneously crimp the head connection terminal and the rubber shell to the end of the wire.

[0061] The tail-end split transfer mechanism 14 and the head-end split transfer mechanism 16 have the same structure; therefore, the specific structure of the head-end split transfer mechanism 16 will be described below to fully illustrate the beneficial effects of the present invention, while the tail-end split transfer mechanism 14 will not be described in detail here.

[0062] like Figure 10 As shown, the head section transfer mechanism 16 includes a wire pulling mechanism 161, a wire buffer mechanism 162, a transfer robot 163, and a carrier transport mechanism 164. The carrier transport mechanism 164 is equipped with an injection molding carrier 165. The wire pulling mechanism 161 is connected to the second conveying mechanism 13 and is used to pull out one end of the wire on the second conveying mechanism 13 and place the wire onto the wire buffer mechanism 162.

[0063] The wire buffer mechanism 162 is used to temporarily store wires. The transfer robot 163 is connected to the wire buffer mechanism 162 and the carrier transport mechanism 164 respectively. The transfer robot 163 is equipped with a wire splitting mechanism 24. The transfer robot 163 is used to pick up wires from the wire buffer mechanism 162 and distribute the wires according to a preset spacing through the wire splitting mechanism 24. Then, the wires with the allocated spacing are placed on the injection carriers 165 on the carrier transport mechanism 164. The carrier transport mechanism 164 is used to transport the injection carriers 165 containing wires to the head injection molding machine 17 and transport the empty injection carriers 165 to the unloading position of the transfer robot 163, thereby completing the automated wire splitting and transfer processing.

[0064] During the processing, the second conveying mechanism 13 conveys the power cord with the injection-molded tail end to the corresponding position of the wire pulling mechanism 161; the wire pulling mechanism 161 pulls out one end of the wire head and places the pulled-out end on the wire buffer mechanism 162; when the wire buffer mechanism 162 has buffered an appropriate number of wires, the transfer robot 163 picks up the wires from the wire buffer mechanism 162 and controls the wire spacing mechanism 24 to adjust the spacing of multiple wires to a spacing that matches the injection molding carrier 165. Then, the transfer robot 163 places the wires onto the injection molding carrier 165; when the injection molding carrier 165 is full of wires, the carrier conveying mechanism 164 transports the injection molding carrier 165 to the head injection molding machine 17 for injection molding.

[0065] The head-partitioning transfer mechanism 16, through the cooperation of the wire pulling mechanism 161, the wire buffer mechanism 162, and the transfer robot 163, can automatically transfer the wire from the second conveying mechanism 13 to the injection molding carrier 165, and then send the injection molding carrier 165 out through the carrier transport mechanism 164, thereby realizing the automatic transfer process of the wire. On the other hand, the wire spacing mechanism 24 set on the transfer robot 163 can place the wire on the injection molding carrier 165 at a preset spacing. By reducing the spacing between the wires, it can meet the processing needs of small injection molding machines, reduce the overall size of the power cord assembly equipment, and reduce the overall manufacturing cost of the equipment.

[0066] like Figure 11As shown, the wire pulling mechanism 161 includes a wire pulling bracket 1611, which is mounted on the second base 12. The wire pulling bracket 1611 is provided with a wire pulling transverse module, and the output end of the wire pulling transverse module is provided with a wire pulling lifting module. The output end of the wire pulling lifting module is provided with a wire pulling gripper cylinder 1612. In practice, the wire pulling module is controlled to drive the wire pulling lifting module and the wire pulling gripper cylinder 1612 to move laterally, so that the wire pulling lifting module and the wire pulling gripper cylinder 1612 move directly above the wire on the conveying mechanism. Then, the wire pulling lifting module is controlled to drive the wire pulling gripper cylinder 1612 to descend, and then the wire pulling gripper cylinder 1612 clamps one end of the wire on the conveying mechanism. Then, the wire pulling module is controlled to reset, so that the wire pulling gripper cylinder 1612 moves one end of the wire, thereby pulling one end of the wire out of the conveying mechanism and pulling the wire directly above the buffer transfer mechanism. Then, the wire pulling lifting module and the wire pulling gripper cylinder 1612 work together to place the wire on the buffer transfer mechanism, and then the buffer transfer mechanism moves the wire to the position of the buffer gripper cylinder 1622, where the buffer gripper cylinder 1622 clamps the wire, completing the wire pulling and unloading work.

[0067] Specifically, the wire pulling traverse module includes a traverse motor 1613 and a traverse driven wheel 1614. The traverse motor 1613 is connected to the wire pulling fixing frame 1611. The output end of the traverse motor 1613 houses a traverse driving wheel. A traverse transmission belt 1615 is sleeved on the traverse driving wheel and the traverse driven wheel 1614. The wire pulling lifting module is connected to the traverse transmission belt 1615. During operation, the traverse motor 1613 is controlled to operate, driving the traverse driving wheel to rotate. The traverse driving wheel drives the traverse transmission belt 1615 to move, which in turn pulls the wire pulling lifting module and the wire pulling gripper cylinder 1612 to move, thereby achieving the purpose of driving the wire pulling lifting module and the wire pulling gripper cylinder 1612 to move back and forth between the second conveying mechanism 13 and the wire buffer mechanism 162.

[0068] The wire pulling lifting module includes a lifting fixed base 1616, which is connected to a transverse transmission belt 1615. A lifting cylinder 1617 is mounted on the lifting fixed base 1616, and a wire pulling gripper cylinder 1612 is connected to the output end of the lifting cylinder 1617. During operation, after the wire pulling transverse module drives the wire pulling lifting module to a preset position, the lifting cylinder 1617 is controlled to operate, driving the wire pulling gripper cylinder 1612 to descend to a suitable position. The wire pulling gripper cylinder 1612 clamps or releases the wire. Afterward, the lifting cylinder 1617 is controlled to reset, driving the wire pulling gripper cylinder 1612 to rise to the initial position.

[0069] In order to enable the wire clamping cylinder 1612 to clamp the wire on the conveying mechanism, a wire clamping cylinder 166 is provided on the wire clamping frame 1611 at a position corresponding to the second conveying mechanism 13. An opening block 167 is provided on the output end of the wire clamping cylinder 166. The wire clamping cylinder 166 can drive the opening block 167 to abut or separate from the wire clamp 201. Normally, the wire pulling and clamping cylinder 166 retracts, causing the clamping block 167 to separate from the wire clamp 201 on the conveying mechanism. When it is necessary to clamp the wire on the second conveying mechanism 13, the wire pulling and clamping cylinder 166 is extended, driving the clamping block 167 to descend and abut against the wire clamp 201. The clamping block 167 will squeeze the wire clamp 201, causing the wire clamp 201 to open, thus facilitating the wire pulling claw cylinder 1612 to pull the wire out of the wire clamp 201. After one end of the wire is pulled out, the wire pulling and clamping cylinder 166 is reset, driving the clamping block 167 to rise and reset to the initial position. After the clamping block 167 leaves the wire clamp 201, the spring on the wire clamp 201 will automatically close the wire clamp 201 to clamp the wire again, so that the wire can be conveyed to other workstations.

[0070] like Figure 12-13 As shown, the wire buffer mechanism 162 includes a buffer fixing frame 1621, which is connected to the second base 12. Multiple buffer gripper cylinders 1622 are evenly distributed on the buffer fixing frame 1621. A buffer transfer mechanism is provided on the buffer fixing frame 1621. The buffer transfer mechanism is connected to the buffer gripper cylinders 1622 and the wire pulling mechanism 161 respectively. The wire pulling mechanism 161 can place the wire onto the buffer transfer mechanism. The buffer transfer mechanism is used to sequentially transfer the wire to each buffer gripper cylinder 1622.

[0071] During operation, the wire pulled out by the wire pulling mechanism 161 is placed onto the wire buffer mechanism 162. Then, the buffer transfer mechanism moves the wire between the various buffer gripper cylinders 1622, adjusting the spacing between the wires to the preset spacing, until each buffer gripper cylinder 1622 holds one wire. Afterward, the transfer robot 163 removes the wires from the buffer gripper cylinders 1622 and places them onto the injection molding carrier 165, thus completing the processing of pulling out one end of the wire and injection molding discharge.

[0072] It should be noted that the reason for pulling out the wire head before sorting and injection molding is to ensure that the two ends of the wire are not aligned during injection. This allows multiple wires to be injection molded to be placed as close together as possible when placed in the injection molding carrier 165, enabling the carrier to hold more products and improving injection molding efficiency. Compared to injection molding without pulling the wire, if the same quantity is injection molded at once, the wire head spacing and transfer mechanism allows for the use of a smaller injection molding machine, thereby reducing the overall size of the power cord assembly equipment.

[0073] The buffer transfer mechanism includes a transfer motor 1623, a transfer guide rail 1624, and a transfer sliding plate 1625. The transfer motor 1623 and the transfer guide rail 1624 are respectively connected to the buffer fixing frame 1621. A transfer gear 1626 is provided on the output end of the transfer motor 1623, and a transfer rack 1627 is provided on the transfer sliding plate 1625. The transfer gear 1626 and the transfer rack 1627 are meshed and connected. The transfer sliding plate 1625 is slidably engaged with the transfer guide rail 1624. Multiple transfer gripper cylinders 1628 are evenly distributed on the transfer sliding plate 1625. The distance between adjacent transfer gripper cylinders 1628 is the same as the distance between adjacent buffer gripper cylinders 1622.

[0074] In operation, the wire-pulling gripper cylinder 1612 moves the wire to the transfer gripper cylinder 1628 closest to the wire-pulling mechanism 161. The transfer gripper cylinder 1628 clamps the wire, and then the wire-pulling gripper cylinder 1612 releases the wire. Next, the transfer motor 1623 is controlled to operate, driving the transfer gear 1626 to rotate. The transfer gear 1626 pushes the transfer rack 1627 and the transfer sliding plate 1625 to move. 1625 drives the shifting gripper cylinder 1628 to slide laterally, so that the shifting gripper cylinder 1628 holding the wire is aligned with the buffer gripper cylinder 1622 closest to the wire pulling mechanism 161, so that one end of the wire extends into the clamping position of the buffer gripper cylinder 1622. Then, the buffer gripper cylinder 1622 clamps the wire, and the shifting gripper cylinder 1628 releases the wire, thereby realizing the process of transferring the wire from the shifting gripper cylinder 1628 to the buffer gripper cylinder 1622. Then, the transfer motor 1623 is reversed, driving the first transfer gripper cylinder 1628 to clamp the new wire again. At the same time, the transfer sliding plate 1625 slides in the reverse direction, which will cause the second transfer gripper cylinder 1628 to align with the first buffer gripper cylinder 1622. Then, the first transfer gripper cylinder 1628 is controlled to clamp the wire, and the first buffer gripper cylinder 1622 is controlled to release the wire. Then, the transfer motor 1623 is controlled to rotate forward, and the first transfer gripper cylinder 1628 will move to align with the first buffer gripper cylinder 1622. The second transfer gripper cylinder 1628 will move to align with the second buffer gripper cylinder 1622. Then, the wire on the first transfer gripper cylinder 1628 is placed on the first buffer gripper cylinder 1622, and the wire on the second transfer gripper cylinder 1628 is placed on the second buffer gripper cylinder 1622. Repeat the above process until all the buffer gripper cylinders 1622 are filled with wire, then control the transfer robot 163 to remove the wire from each buffer gripper cylinder 1622, thus realizing the discharge and transfer of wire.

[0075] In this embodiment, there are three shifting gripper cylinders 1628 and three buffer gripper cylinders 1622. In other embodiments, there may be more than three shifting gripper cylinders 1628 and three buffer gripper cylinders 1622.

[0076] To ensure stable clamping of the wire on the buffer gripper cylinder 1622 and prevent the wire end from tangling or sagging, buffer guard grippers 1629 are respectively provided on the buffer fixing frame 1621 at corresponding positions to the buffer gripper cylinder 1622. The buffer guard grippers 1629 and their corresponding buffer gripper cylinders 1622 clamp the same wire. That is, during operation, while the buffer gripper cylinder 1622 is clamping the wire, it also controls the corresponding buffer guard grippers 1629 to operate, holding the middle of the wire by the buffer guard grippers 1629. This allows the wire to swing smoothly on the wire buffer mechanism 162, improving operational stability.

[0077] like Figure 14 As shown, the transfer robot 163 includes a transfer X-axis module 1631, which is connected to the second base 12. A transfer Z-axis module 1632 is located at the output end of the transfer X-axis module 1631, and a transfer Y-axis module 1633 is located at the output end of the transfer Z-axis module 1632. The wire splitting mechanism 24 is connected to the output end of the transfer Y-axis module 1633. In operation, the cooperation of the transfer X-axis module 1631, transfer Y-axis module 1633, and transfer Z-axis module 1632 drives the wire splitting mechanism 24 to move freely within three degrees of freedom, thereby achieving the purpose of driving the wire splitting mechanism 24 to move back and forth between the carrier transport mechanism 164 and the wire buffer mechanism 162.

[0078] In this embodiment, the X-axis transfer module 1631 and the Z-axis transfer module 1632 adopt a motor lead screw structure, and the Y-axis transfer module 1633 adopts a motor pulley structure. In other embodiments, the X-axis transfer module 1631, the Y-axis transfer module 1633, and the Z-axis transfer module 1632 may also adopt other structures or devices capable of linear drive, such as cylinder structures, electric cylinder structures, etc.

[0079] like Figure 15-16 As shown, the wire splitting mechanism 24 includes a splitting fixing frame 241, which is connected to the output end of the Y-axis transfer module 1633. The splitting fixing frame 241 is equipped with a first wire end gripper cylinder 242 and a first wire end gripper cylinder 243. During operation, the first wire end gripper cylinder 242 and the first wire end gripper cylinder 243 are used to grip the same wire. After the first wire end gripper cylinder 242 grips one end of the wire, the first wire end gripper cylinder 243 can grip the other end of the wire. By gripping the wire with two gripper cylinders, it is possible to ensure that the wire is picked up, avoiding the problem of the wire falling or moving due to only gripping one end of the wire.

[0080] The spacing fixing frame 241 is also equipped with a first spacing cylinder 244 and a second spacing cylinder 245. The output end of the first spacing cylinder 244 is equipped with a second wire end clamping cylinder 246. The first spacing cylinder 244 can drive the second wire end clamping cylinder 246 to approach or move away from the first wire end clamping cylinder 242. The output end of the second spacing cylinder 245 is equipped with a second wire end clamping cylinder 247. The second spacing cylinder 245 can drive the second wire end clamping cylinder 247 to approach or move away from the first wire end clamping cylinder 243. The second wire end clamping cylinder 246 and the second wire end clamping cylinder 247 are used to clamp the same wire.

[0081] In the initial state, the distance between the first wire end gripper cylinder 242 and the second wire end gripper cylinder 246 is the same as the distance between the two adjacent buffer gripper cylinders 1622. During operation, through the cooperation of the transfer X-axis module 1631, the transfer Y-axis module 1633, and the transfer Z-axis module 1632, the first wire end gripper cylinder 242 and the second wire end gripper cylinder 246 can respectively grab one end of the wire from the two adjacent buffer gripper cylinders 1622, and the other end of the wire can be grabbed by the first wire end gripper cylinder 243 and the second wire end gripper cylinder 247, thereby picking up the two wires on the buffer gripper cylinder 1622. After the wire is picked up, the first spacing cylinder 244 and the second spacing cylinder 245 are controlled to work respectively. The first spacing cylinder 244 drives the second wire end gripper cylinder 246 to move towards the first wire end gripper cylinder 242, and the second spacing cylinder 245 drives the second wire end gripper cylinder 247 to move towards the first wire end gripper cylinder 243, until the spacing between the two wires matches the product placement spacing on the injection molding carrier 165. Then, through the cooperation of the transfer X-axis module 1631, transfer Y-axis module 1633 and transfer Z-axis module 1632, the wire splitting mechanism 24 is driven to the injection carrier 165 on the carrier transport mechanism 164. Then, the first wire head gripper cylinder 242, the first wire tail gripper cylinder 243, the second wire head gripper cylinder 246 and the second wire tail gripper cylinder 247 are controlled to release the wire and place the two wires onto the injection carrier 165 respectively.

[0082] By reducing the spacing between wires through the wire spacing mechanism 24, more wires can be placed in the same size injection carrier 165, thereby improving processing efficiency. If the same wires are injected at once, reducing the spacing between the wires can relatively reduce the size of the injection carrier 165, making it suitable for some small injection molding machines and reducing the overall volume of the power cord assembly equipment.

[0083] To limit and guide the stroke of the spacing, a first spacing guide rail 248, a second spacing guide rail 249, and a buffer limiter 2410 are provided on the spacing fixing frame 241. A first spacing mounting block 2411 is provided on the output end of the first spacing cylinder 244. A second wire end clamping claw cylinder 246 is connected to the first spacing mounting block 2411. A second spacing mounting block 2412 is provided on the output end of the second spacing cylinder 245. A second wire end clamping claw cylinder 247 is connected to the second spacing mounting block 2412. The first spacing mounting block 2411 is slidably engaged with the first spacing guide rail 248. The second spacing mounting block 2412 is slidably engaged with the second spacing guide rail 249. The first spacing cylinder 244 can drive the first spacing mounting block 2411 to abut against the buffer limiter 2410.

[0084] In the initial state, the first spacing cylinder 244 extends, and the first spacing mounting block 2411 abuts against the buffer limiter 2410; the second spacing cylinder 245 extends, and the second spacing mounting block 2412 abuts against the first spacing mounting block 2411. At this time, the distance between the first wire end gripper cylinder 242 and the second wire end gripper cylinder 246 is the same as the distance between the buffer gripper cylinder 1622, so that the two wire end gripper cylinders can grip the wire from the buffer gripper cylinder 1622. When the first split cylinder 244 is working, it drives the first split mounting block 2411 to slide on the first split guide rail 248, causing the second thread end gripper cylinder 246 to move closer to the first thread end gripper cylinder 242 until the stroke of the first split cylinder 244 ends. When the second split cylinder 245 is working, it drives the second split mounting block 2412 to slide on the second split guide rail 249, causing the second thread end gripper cylinder 247 to move closer to the first thread end gripper cylinder 243 until the stroke of the second split cylinder 245 ends. At this time, the distance between the first thread end gripper cylinder 242 and the second thread end gripper cylinder 246 is exactly the same as the distance between the thread placement positions on the injection molding carrier 165. The two spacing guides can limit and guide the direction of the spacing, the buffer limiter 2410 can limit the movement stroke of the second wire end gripper cylinder 246, and the first spacing mounting block 2411 can limit the movement stroke of the second spacing mounting block 2412, thereby improving the stability of the transmission and the accuracy of the control.

[0085] To ensure that the wire splitting mechanism 24 can stably clamp the wire and prevent the wire end from tangling or sagging, a first wire guarding claw cylinder 2413 is provided on the splitting fixing frame 241, and a second wire guarding claw cylinder 2414 is provided on the first splitting mounting block 2411. The first wire guarding claw cylinder 2413, the first wire end claw cylinder 242, and the first wire end claw cylinder 243 are used to clamp the same wire; the second wire guarding claw cylinder 2414, the second wire end claw cylinder 246, and the second wire end claw cylinder 247 are used to clamp the same wire. During operation, while the first wire-end gripper cylinder 242 and the first wire-end gripper cylinder 243 are clamping the wire, the first wire-protecting gripper cylinder 2413 is also activated, holding the middle portion of the wire. Similarly, while the second wire-end gripper cylinder 246 and the second wire-end gripper cylinder 247 are clamping the wire, the second wire-protecting gripper cylinder 2414 is also activated, holding the middle portion of the wire. By configuring the first and second wire-protecting gripper cylinders 2413 and 2414, the wire is stably clamped on the wire-splitting mechanism 24, eliminating the need for splitting operations and improving processing stability.

[0086] The carrier transport mechanism 164 can be any of the existing technologies, as long as it can transport the injection carrier 165 loaded with wire to the injection molding machine. Its specific structure will not be described in detail here.

[0087] like Figure 17 As shown, the injection molding carrier 165 includes a carrier fixing plate 1651, which is slidably connected to the carrier transport mechanism 164. A first clamping plate 1652 and a second clamping plate 1653 are arranged in parallel on the carrier fixing plate 1651. The first clamping plate 1652 has a plurality of first clamping positions 1654, and the second clamping plate 1653 has a plurality of second clamping positions 1655. The number of first clamping positions 1654 and second clamping positions 1655 is the same. The first clamping positions 1654 are used to clamp one end of the wire, and the second clamping positions 1655 are used to clamp the other end of the wire. By using the parallel arrangement of the first clamping plate 1652 and the second clamping plate 1653, the two ends of the power cord do not need to be placed on a straight line, which can shorten the cable length between the wire head and the wire tail. This allows the power cord assembly equipment to process shorter power cords, improving the versatility of the equipment.

[0088] The carrier fixing plate 1651 is also provided with a wire clamping plate 1656. A third clamping position 1657 is provided on the wire clamping plate 1656 at a position corresponding to the first clamping position 1654 and the second clamping position 1655. The third clamping position 1657 is used to clamp the middle part of the wire. Through the cooperation of the first clamping position 1654, the second clamping position 1655, and the third clamping position 1657, each power wire is clamped at least three positions, ensuring stable installation on the injection molding carrier 165 and guaranteeing the quality of processing.

[0089] In actual operation, after the wire splitting mechanism 24 clamps and splits the wire, the wire splitting mechanism 24 is driven to move to the position on the carrier fixing plate 1651 to place the wire through the cooperation of the transfer X-axis module 1631, transfer Y-axis module 1633 and transfer Z-axis module 1632. The transfer Z-axis module 1632 drives the wire splitting mechanism 24 to descend, so that the wire on the wire splitting mechanism 24 will be respectively inserted into the corresponding first clamping position 1654, second clamping plate 1653 and third clamping position 1657. The wire is clamped by the three clamping positions, and then the wire splitting mechanism 24 is controlled to release the wire, thereby completing the process of transferring the wire from the wire splitting mechanism 24 to the injection molding carrier 165. Repeat the above processing procedure. After the carrier fixing plate 1651 is full of wire, control the carrier transport mechanism 164 to transport the injection carrier 165 containing the wire to the head injection molding machine 17 for injection molding.

[0090] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, a material handling robot 18 is provided between the carrier transport mechanism 164 at the tail end of the processed wire and the head portioning transfer mechanism 16. The material handling robot 18 can pick up the wire with the injection-molded shell at the tail end from the carrier transport mechanism 164 at the tail end of the processed wire. Moreover, there are two second conveying mechanisms 13. One second conveying mechanism 13 is used to receive the wire with terminals to be connected at both ends transported by the transition robot 400 and can transport the wire to the tail portioning transfer mechanism 14. The other second conveying mechanism 13 is used to receive the wire picked up by the material handling robot 18 and can transport the wire to the corresponding gripping position of the wire pulling mechanism 161 on the head portioning transfer mechanism 16.

[0091] A third conveying mechanism 19 is also provided on the second base 12, and the third conveying mechanism 19 is connected to the carrier conveying mechanism 164 for processing wire heads. Along the conveying direction of the third conveying mechanism 19, the second base 12 is provided with a detection gripping robot 20, a detection leveling mechanism 21, an electrical testing mechanism 22, and an appearance inspection mechanism 23 in sequence. The detection gripping robot 20 is used to grip the wire with its head and tail molded from the carrier conveying mechanism 164 and place it on the third conveying mechanism 19. The third conveying mechanism 19 can sequentially convey the wire to the detection leveling mechanism 21, the electrical testing mechanism 22, and the appearance inspection mechanism 23. The unloading robot 500 is connected to the end of the third conveying mechanism 19 and can grip the processed product from the third conveying mechanism 19 and place it on the receiving robot 301. The detection and leveling mechanism 21 is used to drive the head and tail of the power cord to rotate so that the head and tail of the power cord are aligned with the insertion direction of the electrical testing mechanism 22; the electrical testing mechanism 22 is used to perform electrical continuity tests on the head and tail of the power cord to ensure that the electrical performance of the power cord is normal; the appearance inspection mechanism 23 is used to inspect the appearance of the head and tail of the power cord to ensure its aesthetic appearance.

[0092] This fully automated power cord production line has the following beneficial effects:

[0093] 1. Equipped with a wire core alignment and separation mechanism, through a series of precise actions such as visual positioning, rotational alignment, flattening, and wire separation, it ensures that the direction and spacing of each wire core of the multi-core wire are highly consistent before riveting the terminals. This provides perfect pre-treatment for subsequent riveting and injection molding, fundamentally reducing quality problems such as poor riveting and injection molding caused by wire core misalignment and entanglement, and significantly improving product qualification rate and consistency.

[0094] 2. The head and tail forming equipment 200 adopts a spacing transfer mechanism, which has buffer and spacing functions. It can temporarily store the continuously conveyed wire and then transfer it to the injection carrier 165 in one go at a precise interval. This perfectly matches the production rhythm of the injection molding machine, avoids the situation of the production line waiting for the injection molding machine to open the mold, makes the whole line rhythm smooth, and maximizes the production capacity.

[0095] 3. Fully automated production reduces reliance on skilled operators, lowering labor and management costs. Simultaneously, improved product quality and yield rates reduce raw material waste and rework costs, resulting in a significant decrease in overall production costs.

[0096] 4. The production line adopts a modular design, with each mechanism relatively independent. By adjusting the program and control parameters, it can adapt to the production of power cords of different lengths, wire diameters, core counts, and terminal types, exhibiting a high degree of flexibility.

[0097] The above-described specific embodiments are preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the specific scope of the present invention. The scope of the present invention includes but is not limited to the specific embodiments described herein. All equivalent changes made in accordance with the present invention are within the protection scope of the present invention.
