Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the technical field of electric tricycle manufacturing and processing, and in particular to an electric tricycle handlebar assembly equipment. Background Technology
[0002] Electric tricycle handlebar covers are protective and comfort components fitted onto the handlebar grip area of electric tricycles. They are usually made of materials such as rubber, silicone, or flexible plastic. They can isolate the metal material of the handlebar from direct contact with the hand, providing heat insulation and cold protection. They can also increase the friction when gripping, improving the stability and comfort of driving and handling. They are an important accessory in the production and assembly of electric tricycles.
[0003] There are generally two assembly methods for electric tricycle handlebar grips: manual assembly and mechanical assembly.
[0004] Manual assembly: This usually requires workers to hold the handlebars and handlebar grips, align the open end of the handlebar grip with the end of the handlebars, and then forcefully screw the handlebar grip onto the handlebars. This process is repeated to complete the batch assembly of electric tricycle handlebar grips. However, the manual screwing process requires a lot of physical strength, and each set takes a certain amount of time. Therefore, the manual batch assembly method is time-consuming and laborious, which affects the assembly efficiency of tricycle handlebar grips.
[0005] Mechanical assembly: Electric tricycle handlebar grip assembly equipment includes a handlebar limit frame, a mounting sleeve, and a drive unit. When assembling the handlebar grip, the handlebar is usually fixed on the limit frame first, and the handlebar grip is placed in the mounting sleeve. The drive unit is then activated, which moves the handlebar grip towards the end of the handlebar and installs it on the handlebar, thus completing the installation of the handlebar grip. This solves the problem of time-consuming and labor-intensive manual assembly.
[0006] However, the mechanical installation method requires assembly one by one. First, a single handlebar is fixed on the limit frame, then a single handlebar grip is placed into the installation sleeve. Then, the drive unit is activated, which moves the handlebar grip towards the end of the handlebar to complete the assembly. After the previous set of handlebars and grips is assembled, the assembled handlebars must be removed from the limit frame before the new handlebars and grips can be placed in order to start the next round of assembly. This will affect the assembly efficiency of electric tricycle handlebar grips. Summary of the Invention
[0007] This application aims to at least partially address one of the technical problems in the related art.
[0008] Therefore, the purpose of this application is to provide an electric tricycle handlebar grip assembly device that uses a continuous feeding method to continuously assemble handlebar grips and handlebars without waiting for the previously assembled handlebar grips and grips to be removed before starting a new assembly process, thereby improving the assembly efficiency of tricycle handlebar grips.
[0009] To achieve the above objectives, this application proposes an electric tricycle handlebar grip assembly device, including a handlebar grip heating assembly, a flipping and feeding assembly, a chain conveyor, and a striking assembly. The flipping and feeding assembly includes a fixed plate, a limiting drive component, and a material-picking assembly. The fixed plate is mounted on the handlebar grip heating assembly and has control grooves, including a material-locking groove, a material-picking groove, a flipping groove, and an assembly groove. The limiting drive component is slidably connected to a limiting rod mounted on the fixed plate. The material-picking assembly is rotatably connected to the limiting drive component and slidably connected to the control grooves. The chain conveyor is located on one side of the fixed plate and has multiple positioning conveyor plates. Each positioning conveyor plate has a handlebar positioning groove, and a snap-fit plate with a handlebar buckle is located at the bottom of the positioning conveyor plate. The striking assembly is mounted on the chain conveyor.
[0010] In addition, the electric tricycle handlebar assembly equipment proposed above in this application may also have the following additional technical features:
[0011] In one embodiment of this application, the limiting drive includes a limiting slider and an electric telescopic rod, wherein the limiting slider is slidably disposed on the limiting slide rod; the electric telescopic rod is disposed on the handlebar heating assembly, and the extension shaft of the electric telescopic rod is connected to the limiting slider.
[0012] In one embodiment of this application, the material handling assembly includes a material handling assembly cylinder, a connecting shaft, a steering plate, and a pulley. The connecting shaft is rotatably connected to a limiting slider, one end of the connecting shaft is elastically slidably connected to the material handling assembly cylinder, and the other end of the connecting shaft is connected to one end of the steering plate. The other end of the steering plate is rotatably connected to the pulley, and the pulley is slidably connected to a control groove.
[0013] In one embodiment of this application, the handle heating assembly includes a support frame, a drive motor, and a drive disk. The drive motor is mounted on the support frame, and a fixing plate is fixedly connected to the support frame. The drive disk is rotatably mounted on the support frame and connected to the output shaft of the drive motor. The drive disk is provided with multiple heating tubes, and heating wires are provided inside the heating tubes.
[0014] In one embodiment of this application, the chain conveyor further includes two chains, multiple sprockets, a drive component, and a conveying bracket. The multiple sprockets are rotatably mounted on the conveying bracket, and a position sensor is mounted on the conveying bracket. The drive component is mounted on the conveying bracket and is connected to the corresponding sprocket for transmission. The two chains are respectively sleeved on the corresponding sprockets. The ends of the positioning conveyor plates are respectively connected to the corresponding chains.
[0015] In one embodiment of this application, the striking assembly includes a housing, a reciprocating drive, an elastic control, and a striking block. The housing is mounted on a chain conveyor; the reciprocating drive is mounted inside the housing; the elastic control is slidably mounted inside the housing, the reciprocating drive and the elastic control rotate and abut against each other, and one end of the elastic control extends outside the housing; the striking block is connected to one end of the elastic control.

[0017] The beneficial effects of this application are as follows:
[0018] The grip heating assembly allows for the heating of multiple grips, softening them for easier installation. The flip-feed assembly removes the corresponding grip from the heating assembly, flipping it so its opening faces the handlebars. A chain conveyor then transports the positioning conveyor plate and handlebars to the assembly position, enabling the flip-feed assembly to install the grip onto the handlebars. Furthermore, the grip heating assembly allows for rotating loading and unloading of grips, while the chain conveyor continuously transports the positioning conveyor plate and handlebars, achieving continuous assembly of the handlebars and grips and improving assembly efficiency.

[0032] The embodiments of this application are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain this application, and should not be construed as limiting this application.
[0033] The electric tricycle handlebar assembly equipment of this application embodiment will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0034] like Figures 1-9As shown, the electric tricycle handlebar assembly equipment of this application embodiment includes a handlebar heating assembly 1, a flipping and feeding assembly 2, a chain conveyor 3, and a striking assembly 4.
[0035] The flipping and feeding assembly 2 includes a fixed plate 20, a limit drive component 21, and a material picking assembly 22.
[0036] Understandably, the shape and specifications of handlebar 6 and grips 7 are common types on the market; for details, please refer to [reference needed]. Figure 8 The shape of the handlebars 6 and 7.
[0037] In this embodiment of the application, the handlebar heating assembly 1 is used to rotatably insert multiple handlebar sleeves 7, and to rotate and unload the handlebar sleeves 7 respectively, thereby ensuring the continuous assembly of the handlebar sleeves 7 and the handlebar 6, and the handlebar heating assembly 1 heats the handlebar sleeves 7 respectively, so that the handlebar sleeves 7 soften.
[0038] It should be noted that the softening and ease of installation of the handlebar grip 7 described in this embodiment refers to the fact that the handlebar grip 6 is easier to fit after heating. The heat intensifies the molecular movement within the handlebar grip 7, breaking the previously relatively stable intermolecular forces and transforming the material from a "rigid state" to a "deformable, softened state." (When unheated, the molecular chains of the handlebar grip 7 (made of polymer material) are stable with small vibration amplitudes and strong intermolecular forces, resulting in rigidity and a fixed inner diameter. This leads to high resistance during installation, and forced fitting can easily cause the handlebar grip 7 to tear or crack. After heating, the heat increases molecular kinetic energy, intensifies molecular chain movement, weakens the forces, and softens and deforms the handlebar grip 7, reducing installation resistance, decreasing the risk of breakage, and allowing for a better fit to the handlebar grip 6.) This makes it easier to fit the handlebar grip 7 onto the handlebar grip 6.
[0039] The fixing plate 20 is set on the handle heating assembly 1. The fixing plate 20 is provided with a control slide 200, which includes a material clamping slide 2000, a material picking slide 2001, a flipping slide 2002, and an assembly slide 2003.
[0040] In this embodiment of the application, the material chute 2000 is used to control the tilting movement of the material taking part 22 and to abut and remove the sleeve 7.
[0041] In this embodiment, the material chute 2001 is used to control the movement of the material handling assembly 22 in parallel, thereby ensuring the stable delivery of the removed handle 7.
[0042] In this embodiment of the application, the flipping chute 2002 is used to control the flipping of the material taking part 22 and to flip the handlebar 7 180°, with the opening of the handlebar 7 facing upward (or clockwise) so that the opening of the handlebar 7 is aligned with the handlebar 6.
[0043] In this embodiment, the assembly slide 2003 is used to control the movement of the material handling assembly 22 in parallel and to install the handlebar sleeve 7 on the handlebar 6.
[0044] The limit drive component 21 is slidably connected to the limit slide rod 201 provided on the fixed plate 20.
[0045] In this embodiment, the limiting drive 21 is used to control the material handling assembly 22 to move within the control chute 200.
[0046] The material handling assembly 22 is rotatably connected to the limit drive component 21, and the material handling assembly 22 is slidably connected to the control slide 200.
[0047] It is understandable that by rotating the material picking device 22 and the limiting drive 21, the material picking device 22 can rotate within the limiting drive 21 when it slides and flips in the flipping chute 2002, thereby ensuring the flipping effect of the material picking device 22.
[0048] The chain conveyor 3 is located on one side of the fixed plate 20. Multiple positioning conveyor plates 30 are provided on the chain conveyor 3. The positioning conveyor plates 30 are provided with handlebar positioning grooves 300. The bottom of the positioning conveyor plates 30 is provided with a snap-fit plate 301. The snap-fit plate 301 is provided with a handlebar buckle 302.
[0049] In this embodiment, the positioning conveyor plate 30 is used to limit and fix the position of the handlebar 6, thereby ensuring the installation effect of the handlebar sleeve 7.
[0050] It should be noted that the groove of the handlebar positioning groove 300 described in this embodiment is inclined and fits against the inclined part of the handlebar 6, thereby improving the positioning and fixing effect of the handlebar 6. In addition, the handlebar buckle 302 is a common elastic arc buckle on the market, which facilitates the snapping and unscrewing of the handlebar 6. The handlebar buckle 302 is existing technology and will not be described in detail here.
[0051] Understandably, the use of multiple positioning conveyor plates 30 ensures the continuous assembly of the handlebars 6 and grips 7.
[0052] The striking component 4 is installed on the chain conveyor 3.
[0053] In this embodiment of the application, the tapping component 4 is used to tap the installed handlebar cover 7, thereby ensuring the installation effect of the handlebar cover 7.
[0054] Specifically, in actual operation, relevant personnel start the device, and the controller (not shown in the figure) controls the operation of the handlebar heating assembly 1. The relevant personnel insert multiple handlebar covers 7 into the handlebar heating assembly 1, and the handlebar heating assembly 1 heats the handlebar covers 7 respectively, so that the handlebar covers 7 are softened by heat, making it easier to insert and install the handlebar covers 7.
[0055] The relevant staff then pass the handlebar 6 through the handlebar positioning groove 300 in turn and press the handlebar 6 so that the handlebar 6 is engaged with the handlebar buckle 302 and the handlebar 6 is limited. The controller controls the chain conveyor 3 to run and drives the handlebar 6 to the designated position (i.e. the installation position of the handlebar sleeve 7 and the handlebar 6) and then stops running.
[0056] The controller controls the limit drive 21 to move on the fixed plate 20, and drives the material picking device 22 to move from the material picking slide 2001 to the material clamping slide 2000. When the material picking device 22 moves in the material clamping slide 2000, it is in an inclined state, so that it can be sleeved with the corresponding handlebar sleeve 7 on the handlebar heating assembly 6 and abut against the bottom of the handlebar sleeve 7.
[0057] The controller continues to control the limit drive 21 to extend and move on the fixed plate 20, driving the material picking device 22 to move from the snap-fit slide to the material picking slide 2001. During the movement in the snap-fit slide, the material picking device 22 abuts against the bottom of the handle 7, thereby enabling the handle 7 to be removed from the handle heating assembly 1 (after removal, it needs to be installed within a certain time or ten to twenty seconds to prevent the handle 7 from returning to normal temperature after heat dissipation). The material-retrieving assembly 22 continues to slide from the material-retrieving chute 2001 to the flipping chute 2002. During its movement within the flipping chute 2002, the material-retrieving assembly 22 and the handlebar grip 7 flip, causing the opening of the handlebar grip 7 to face the handlebar 6 (the position of the center line between the opening of the handlebar grip 7 and the handlebar 6 is allowed to deviate; that is, when the opening of the handlebar grip 7 presses against the handlebar 6, the elastic handlebar grip 7 will make a certain positional adjustment under the action of elasticity, thereby fitting onto the handlebar 6 from the opening position). The material-retrieving assembly 22 continues to move from the flipping chute 2002 to the assembly chute 2003. During the movement within the assembly groove 2003, the handlebar sleeve 7 gradually engages with the end of the handlebar 6, and is gradually fully engaged within the handlebar 6. After engagement, the handlebar sleeve heating assembly 1 rotates, moving another handlebar sleeve 7 to a designated position. Workers then insert the new handlebar sleeve 7 into the heating assembly 1 for heating. The chain conveyor 3 continues to transport handlebars 6 without handlebar sleeves, and simultaneously moves the already-installed handlebars 6 to the striking assembly 4. The striking assembly 4 strikes the handlebar sleeve 7, further ensuring the effective installation of the handlebar sleeve 7 and handlebar 6. This process is repeated to complete the continuous installation of the handlebar 6 and handlebar sleeve 7.
[0058] In one embodiment of this application, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the limit drive component 21 includes a limit slider 210 and an electric telescopic rod 211.
[0059] The limiting slider 210 is slidably mounted on the limiting slide rod 201, and the electric telescopic rod 211 is mounted on the handlebar heating assembly 1. The extension shaft of the electric telescopic rod 211 is connected to the limiting slider 210.
[0060] It is understandable that by setting the electric telescopic rod 211, the reciprocating movement of the limit slider 210 on the limit slide rod 201 is realized, thereby ensuring the sliding of the material handling assembly 22 within the control slide 200.
[0061] In one embodiment of this application, such as Figures 3-5 As shown, the material handling assembly 22 includes a material handling assembly cylinder 220, a connecting shaft 221, a steering plate 222, and a pulley 223.
[0062] The connecting shaft 221 is rotatably connected to the limiting slider 210, one end of the connecting shaft 221 is elastically slidably connected to the material picking assembly cylinder 220, the other end of the connecting shaft 221 is connected to one end of the direction plate 222, the other end of the direction plate 222 is rotatably connected to the pulley 223, and the pulley 223 is slidably connected to the control slide 200.
[0063] It is understandable that by setting a connecting shaft 221 at one end of the steering plate 222 and a pulley 223 at the other end, when the pulley 223 is at the bottom of the flipping slide 2002 (referring to the V-shaped flipping slide 2002), the pulley 223 abuts against the bottom of the flipping slide 2002, and the connecting shaft 221 flips under the drive of the limiting slider 210, that is, it flips from one side of the flipping slide 2002 to the other side of the flipping slide 2002. During the flipping process, the connecting shaft 221 and the material picking assembly cylinder 220 are flipped, thereby realizing the flipping assembly and flipping material picking of the material picking assembly 22.
[0064] It should be noted that the steering plate 222 described in this example is a common elastic telescopic plate on the market, which is existing technology and will not be described in detail here.
[0065] It should be noted that the material taking assembly cylinder 220 described in this embodiment is provided with multiple one-way locking teeth 2200, so that when the material taking assembly cylinder 220 removes the handle sleeve 7, the one-way locking teeth 2200 abut against the handle sleeve 7, ensuring the removal of the handle sleeve 7. In addition, the one-way locking teeth 2200 can be set in size according to the actual situation, and can also position the handle sleeve 7 at the center of the material taking assembly cylinder 220, thereby improving the installation effect of the handle sleeve 7.
[0066] In one embodiment of this application, such as Figure 2As shown, the sleeve heating assembly 1 includes a support frame 10, a drive motor 11, and a drive disc 12.
[0067] The drive motor 11 is mounted on the support frame 10, the fixing plate 20 is fixedly connected to the support frame 10, the drive disk 12 is rotatably mounted on the support frame 10 and connected to the output shaft of the drive motor 11, and multiple heating tubes 120 are provided on the drive disk 12, with heating wires inside the heating tubes 120.
[0068] Specifically, the sleeve 7 is inserted into the heating tube 120, and there is a gap between the sleeve 7 and the heating tube 120, so that when the material assembly cylinder 220 takes out the sleeve 7, the sleeve 7 will not be stuck on the heating tube 120.
[0069] It should be noted that the heating wire (not shown in the figure) described in this embodiment is connected to the temperature controller (not shown in the figure), and the temperature controller is connected to the controller. In addition, the temperature of the heating wire is usually set relatively high to ensure rapid heating of the sleeve 7. It can be adjusted according to the actual working conditions, and the specific temperature is not limited here.
[0070] It is understandable that the angle of rotation of the drive motor 11 is fixed each time, so as to ensure that each handle 7 rotates to the designated material picking position, thereby ensuring the continuous feeding of the handle 7.
[0071] In one embodiment of this application, such as Figure 1 As shown, the chain conveyor 3 also includes two chains 31, multiple sprockets 32, a drive component 33, and a conveyor support 34.
[0072] Multiple sprockets 32 are rotatably mounted on the conveying bracket 34. A position sensor is mounted on the conveying bracket 34. A drive component 33 is mounted on the conveying bracket 34 and is connected to the corresponding sprocket 32 for transmission. Two chains 31 are respectively mounted on the corresponding sprockets 32. The ends of the positioning conveying plate 30 are respectively connected to the corresponding chains 31.
[0073] It should be noted that the driving components 33 described in this embodiment are a conveying motor (not shown in the figure) and a driving rod (not shown in the figure). The conveying motor is mounted on the conveying bracket 34, and the corresponding driving sprockets 32 are mounted on the driving rod. The driving rod is rotatably connected to the conveying bracket 34 and connected to the output shaft of the conveying motor.
[0074] It should be noted that there are two position sensors described in this embodiment. One is located at the point where the handlebar 6 is transported to the installation position, which facilitates the installation of the handlebar sleeve 7 onto the handlebar 6. The other is located at the striking component 4, which facilitates the striking of the handlebar sleeve 7.
[0075] In one embodiment of this application, such as Figure 1 and Figure 7As shown, the striking assembly 4 includes a housing 40, a reciprocating drive 41, an elastic control 42, and a striking block 43.
[0076] The housing 40 is mounted on the chain conveyor 3, the reciprocating drive 41 is mounted inside the housing 40, the elastic control 42 is slidably mounted inside the housing 40, the reciprocating drive 41 and the elastic control 42 rotate and abut against each other, and one end of the elastic control 42 extends out of the housing 40, and the striking block 43 is connected to one end of the elastic control 42.
[0077] It should be noted that the housing 40 described in this embodiment as being mounted on the chain conveyor 3 means that it is mounted on the conveyor support 34 of the chain conveyor 3.
[0078] It should be noted that the reciprocating drive component 41 described in this embodiment includes a reciprocating motor (not shown in the figure) and a cam (not shown in the figure), and the elastic control component 42 includes a slide plate (not shown in the figure), a return spring (not shown in the figure), and a linkage shaft (not shown in the figure).
[0079] Specifically, the reciprocating motor rotates, causing the cam to rotate. The cam intermittently abuts against the slide plate and squeezes the return spring to undergo elastic deformation, thereby driving the linkage shaft to reciprocate to push the striking block 43 and strike the handle 7.
[0080] In one embodiment of this application, such as Figure 1 and Figure 9 As shown, the electric tricycle handlebar assembly equipment also includes a feeding component 5, which includes a feeding motor 50, a feeding roller 51, and multiple feeding levers 52.
[0081] The feeding motor 50 is located at the feeding end of the conveying bracket 34, the feeding roller 51 is located on the conveying shaft of the feeding motor 50, and multiple feeding levers 52 are respectively located on the feeding roller 51.
[0082] Specifically, the feeding motor 50 rotates, driving the feeding roller 51 to rotate. The feeding roller 51 drives the feeding lever 52 to rotate. During the rotation, the feeding lever 52 abuts against the bent part of the handlebar 6, thereby pulling the handlebar 6 out of the handlebar buckle 302 and the handlebar positioning groove 300, and automatically feeding it according to gravity, thus realizing the automatic feeding of the handlebar sleeve 7 and the handlebar 6.
[0083] Specifically, in actual operation, relevant personnel start the device, the controller (not shown in the figure) controls the thermostat and multiple heating wires to heat the corresponding heating tubes 120, the drive motor 11 rotates and drives the heating tubes 120 to rotate, and relevant personnel insert the handle 7 into the heating tubes 120 in sequence, so that the handle 7 is heated and softened by heat, thereby facilitating the installation of the handle 7.
[0084] The relevant personnel then pass the handlebar 6 through the handlebar positioning groove 300 in sequence and press the handlebar 6 so that the handlebar 6 engages with the handlebar buckle 302 and limits the handlebar 6. The controller controls the chain conveyor 3 to run, that is, the drive component 33 rotates to drive the sprocket 32 and chain 31 to rotate, and drives the corresponding positioning conveyor plate 30 and handlebar 6 to move to the designated position. The position sensor at that position receives the signal and transmits it to the controller, and the controller stops the chain conveyor 3 from running.
[0085] The controller controls the electric telescopic rod 211 to retract and drives the limit slider 210 to move on the limit slide rod 201. The limit slider 210 drives the connecting shaft 221 to move and causes the pulley 223 to move from the material picking groove 2001 to the material clamping groove 2000. When the material picking assembly cylinder 220 moves in the material clamping groove 2000, it is in an inclined state, so that it can be fitted with the corresponding handlebar sleeve 7 on the handlebar heating assembly 6 and abut against the bottom of the handlebar sleeve 7.
[0086] The controller continues to control the electric telescopic rod 211 to extend and move on the fixed plate 20, driving the material picking assembly cylinder 220 to move from the material clamping slide 2000 to the material picking slide 2001. During the movement within the material clamping slide 2000, the material picking assembly cylinder 220 abuts against the bottom of the handle sleeve 7, thereby enabling the handle sleeve 7 to be removed from the heating tube 120. The material-retrieving assembly 22 continues to slide from the material-retrieving chute 2001 to the tilting chute 2002. During its movement within the tilting chute 2002, the pulley 223 abuts against the bottom of the tilting chute 2002. The electric telescopic rod 211 continuously drives the connecting shaft 221 to move, causing the connecting shaft 221 to rotate the other end of the steering plate 222 from one side of the tilting chute 2002 to the other side. During the rotation, the connecting shaft 221 drives the material-retrieving assembly cylinder 220 to rotate, so that the opening of the grip 7 faces the handlebar 6 (the position of the opening of the grip 7 and the handlebar 6 on the same center line is allowed to deviate, that is, when the opening of the grip 7 presses against the handlebar 6, the elastic grip 7 will make a certain position adjustment under the action of elasticity, so that the opening position faces the handlebar 6). 6. (The assembly cylinder 220 continues to move from the flipping chute 2002 to the assembly chute 2003. During the movement within the assembly chute 2003, the handlebar sleeve 7 gradually engages with the end of the handlebar 6 and is gradually fully engaged into the handlebar 6. After the engagement is completed, the drive motor 11 rotates at a fixed angle, rotating the next heating tube 120 and the handlebar sleeve 7 to the material picking position. The relevant personnel insert the new handlebar sleeve 7 into the heating tube 120 that has been removed and heat it. The chain conveyor 3 continues to run and transport the handlebar 6 without the handlebar 6 to the installation position. In addition, the chain conveyor 3 will drive the installed handlebar 6 to the striking component 4. The striking component 4 strikes the handlebar sleeve 7 to further ensure the installation effect of the handlebar sleeve 7 and the handlebar 6. After the striking is completed, the chain conveyor 3 transports the handlebar 6 with the handlebar sleeve 7 installed to the unloading component 5. The unloading component 5 unloads the handlebar 6, and this process is repeated to complete the continuous installation of the handlebar 6 and the handlebar sleeve 7.
[0087] The electric tricycle handlebar assembly equipment of this application is suitable for continuously installing one end of the handlebar 6. The other end of the handlebar 6 needs to be equipped with a power control component, which requires separate installation by relevant personnel.
[0088] In summary, the electric tricycle handlebar grip assembly equipment of this application adopts a continuous feeding method, which can continuously assemble the handlebar grip and handlebars, and can start a new assembly process without waiting for the handlebars and grips assembled in the previous round to be taken out, thereby improving the assembly efficiency of tricycle handlebar grips.
[0089] The electric tricycle handlebar grip assembly equipment provided in this application embodiment can be applied to components that require handlebar grip installation, such as electric tricycle handlebars, electric two-wheeled vehicle handlebars, or bicycle handlebars.
