Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of swashplate pump manufacturing equipment technology, and in particular to a swashplate pump inlet connector and guide sleeve installation equipment. Background Technology
[0002] like Figure 13 The image shows the installation equipment for the existing swashplate pump inlet connector and guide sleeve, such as... Figure 12 The diagram shows the structure of a swashplate pump. The pump body is placed on the fixture manually, and the inlet connector and guide sleeve are pre-placed in the designated installation position. Then, the inlet connector and guide sleeve are pressed onto the mounting part by applying force with a cylinder to complete the installation.
[0003] However, the existing installation equipment requires manual labor for loading and unloading materials, as well as pre-placement of inlet connectors and guide sleeves, which undoubtedly increases the workload of manual labor and makes the installation efficiency of swashplate pumps low. Summary of the Invention
[0004] In order to improve the installation efficiency of the inlet connector and guide sleeve of the swashplate pump, this application provides an installation device for the inlet connector and guide sleeve of the swashplate pump.
[0005] The technical solution provided in this application for a swashplate pump inlet connector and guide sleeve installation device adopts the following: A swashplate pump inlet connector and guide sleeve installation device, characterized in that it includes: The frame serves as the basic support component for the entire installed equipment. The feeding conveyor belt and the unloading conveyor belt are respectively connected to the frame for transporting the pump body. The feeding conveyor belt and the unloading conveyor belt are arranged perpendicular to each other in the transmission direction. The feeding mechanism, which is mounted on the frame, is used to sequentially transport the pump bodies onto the feeding conveyor belt; The guide sleeve feeding mechanism is mounted on the frame and is used to transport the guide sleeve to a designated position on the pump body; The inlet connector feeding mechanism, which is mounted on the frame, is used to transport the inlet connector to a designated position on the pump body; The installation mechanism includes a turntable, multiple movable rods, and a drive assembly. The turntable is rotatably connected to the frame, and the multiple movable rods are movably connected to the circumferential sides of the turntable. Each of the multiple movable rods is provided with several plug-in blocks, which can respectively cooperate with multiple piston holes on the pump body. The drive assembly is used to drive the movable rods to move and rotate axially. When the turntable rotates to the position where the movable rods are directly facing the feeding conveyor belt, the drive assembly drives the several plug-in blocks to engage with the corresponding piston holes and lifts the pump body. When the turntable rotates to the position where the movable rods are directly facing the guide sleeve feeding mechanism, the guide sleeve falls to the designated position on the pump body. When the turntable rotates to the position where the movable rods are directly facing the unloading conveyor belt, the water inlet connector falls to the designated position on the pump body. After pressing the guide sleeve and the water inlet connector on the pump body, the pump body is placed on the unloading conveyor belt and the movable rods are reset.
[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, and utilizing the multi-station design and modular mechanism integration of the turntable, the turntable can simultaneously complete the pump body gripping, guide sleeve installation, inlet connector pressing and unloading, reducing manual intervention and improving the installation efficiency of the inlet connector and guide sleeve of the swashplate pump.
[0007] Preferably, the driving assembly includes multiple movable seats, multiple limiting cylinders, and multiple sets of driving sources. The multiple movable seats are slidably connected to the turntable in the vertical direction. The multiple limiting cylinders are respectively disposed on the movable seats. The multiple limiting cylinders are respectively provided with guide slides and are respectively sleeved on corresponding movable rods. The multiple movable rods are respectively provided with guide blocks and the multiple guide blocks slide along the corresponding guide slides. The multiple sets of driving sources are respectively used to drive the corresponding movable seats to slide in the vertical direction and the movable rods to move relative to the limiting cylinders.
[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the moving seat, the limiting cylinder, and the guide slide are linked together. The moving seat slides vertically to control the height, and the limiting cylinder and the guide slide convert linear motion into the rotation and extension of the moving rod, thereby realizing the compound action of insertion, rotation, and pressing.
[0009] Preferably, the guide slide includes a linear moving part and a rotating part. The linear moving part is located at one end of the limiting cylinder near the rotation axis of the turntable. The linear moving part is used to guide the moving rod to move axially, and the rotating part is used to guide the moving rod to rotate.
[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the straight-moving part has a linear trajectory, which allows the moving rod to extend and retract quickly, shortening the alignment time with the pump body; the rotating part has an arc trajectory, which causes the pump body to rotate after the plug-in block is inserted into the piston hole.
[0011] Preferably, the drive source includes a first electric cylinder and a second electric cylinder. The first electric cylinder is fixedly connected to the turntable, and one end of the piston rod of the first electric cylinder is fixedly connected to the movable seat. The second electric cylinder is fixedly connected to the movable seat, and the movable rod is coaxially and rotatably connected to the piston rod of the second electric cylinder.
[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the first electric cylinder is specifically responsible for the vertical lifting and lowering of the moving seat, and the second electric cylinder is specifically responsible for the extension, retraction and rotation of the moving rod. The two motion dimensions are separated, and the speed and stroke can be adjusted independently. The dual electric cylinders make the motion independently controllable, avoid motion interference, and improve efficiency by coordinating the motion, thus shortening the cycle time.
[0013] Preferably, the plug block is slidably connected to an anti-sliding block along a direction perpendicular to the axis of the moving rod. One end of the anti-sliding block is provided with a first inclined surface. A driving rod is slidably connected to the moving rod on the same axis. One end of the driving rod is provided with a second inclined surface that abuts against the first inclined surface. The driving rod is provided with a limiting block. The limiting cylinder is provided with a limiting groove that cooperates with the limiting block. When the moving rod moves away from the limiting cylinder, the driving rod pushes the anti-sliding block to slide away from the central axis of the moving rod through the inclined surface cooperation.
[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, when the moving rod extends, the driving rod pushes the anti-sliding block to expand through the second inclined surface, forming contact with the inner wall of the piston hole to prevent the pump body from falling off. When the moving rod retracts, the limiting block cooperates with the limiting groove, and the anti-sliding block automatically retracts, facilitating the next cycle.
[0015] Preferably, the feeding mechanism includes a logistics box, a lifting platform, and two conveyor belts. The lifting platform is mounted on the frame and located at the end of the feeding conveyor belt away from the unloading conveyor belt. The logistics box can be placed on the frame with its opening facing the feeding conveyor belt. Multiple trays are provided vertically inside the logistics box, and two clearance grooves are provided on each of the multiple trays. The two conveyor belts are respectively driven and connected to the frame, docking with the feeding conveyor belt and located above the lifting platform. When the logistics box is placed on the lifting platform, the two conveyor belts are located inside the logistics box. When the lifting platform moves the logistics box up and down, the two conveyor belts can move along the clearance grooves on the multiple trays to transport the pump bodies on different layers of trays to the feeding conveyor belt.
[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the multi-layer palletized logistics box, lifting platform and conveyor belt are combined to realize multi-layer efficient storage of pump body, which can automatically load materials in layers to ensure continuous operation, and can also be adapted to pump body of different specifications, reducing manual labor and error rate, and optimizing space utilization.
[0017] Preferably, it also includes a double-inclined roller centering conveyor mechanism, which includes two sets of inclined rollers. The two sets of inclined rollers are rotatably connected to the frame and located between the conveyor belt and the feeding conveyor belt. The inclination directions of the two sets of inclined rollers are symmetrically arranged to center and guide the pump body.
[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the double-inclined roller centering conveyor mechanism automatically corrects the pump body posture and achieves precise centering by means of symmetrically inclined rollers. It is compatible with a variety of pump bodies, has a simple structure and is easy to maintain, and can improve the production cycle time, ensuring that the pump body accurately enters the subsequent work station.
[0019] Preferably, the guide sleeve feeding mechanism includes a first vibratory plate and a conveying track. The first vibratory plate is fixedly connected to the frame, one side of the conveying track is fixedly connected to the first vibratory plate, and the other side of the conveying track faces the turntable.
[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, the first vibratory feeder uses a spiral track and directional bayonet to make the guide sleeve enter the conveying track in a uniform posture, thereby achieving efficient orientation of the guide sleeve feeding.
[0021] Preferably, the water inlet connector feeding mechanism includes a second vibrating plate and a feeding track. The second vibrating plate is fixedly connected to the frame and located above the feeding conveyor belt. One end of the feeding track is fixedly connected to the second vibrating plate, and the other end is slidably connected to a pressure plate. The lower surface of the pressure plate is a guide surface. When the water inlet connector falls onto the pump body, the pressure plate moves to abut against the water inlet connector and presses the water inlet connector onto the pump body.
[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, the water inlet connectors are dynamically pressed by a vibratory plate. After the second vibratory plate is oriented to arrange the water inlet connectors, the pressure plate slides to the pressing position through a linear guide rail to press the water inlet connectors on the swashplate pump.
[0023] The main technical effects of this invention are reflected in the following aspects: 1. This invention integrates a multi-station turntable design with a modular mechanism, allowing the turntable to simultaneously complete pump body gripping, guide sleeve installation, inlet connector pressing, and material unloading, reducing manual intervention and increasing the installation efficiency of the inlet connector and guide sleeve of the swashplate pump. 2. This invention uses the linkage of the movable seat, the limiting cylinder and the guide slide to achieve the combined action of insertion, rotation and pressing by the movable seat sliding vertically to control the height, and the limiting cylinder and guide slide to convert linear motion into rotation and extension of the movable rod. 3. This invention achieves multi-layer efficient storage of pump bodies by using a multi-layer palletized logistics box, lifting platform and conveyor belt. It can automatically load materials in layers to ensure continuous operation, and can also be adapted to pump bodies of different specifications, reducing manual labor and error rate, and optimizing space utilization.

[0038] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figures 1-12 This application will be described in further detail to make the technical solution of this application easier to understand and master.
[0039] This application discloses an installation device for a swashplate pump inlet connector and a guide sleeve.
[0040] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 This embodiment of a swashplate pump inlet connector and guide sleeve installation device includes: a frame 1, serving as the basic support component of the entire installation device; a feeding conveyor belt 2 and a discharging conveyor belt 3, respectively connected to the frame 1 for transporting the pump body 10, wherein the feeding conveyor belt 2 and the discharging conveyor belt 3 are arranged perpendicularly to each other in the transmission direction; the feeding conveyor belt 2 and the discharging conveyor belt 3 are respectively driven by two second motors, and an infrared sensor is installed next to the feeding conveyor belt 2 to detect whether the pump body 10 is in position, and an abutment baffle is installed next to the feeding conveyor belt 2 to limit the position of the pump body 10.
[0041] Reference Figure 3 The feeding mechanism 6 is installed on the frame 1 and is used to sequentially transport the pump body 10 to the feeding conveyor belt 2. The feeding mechanism 6 includes a logistics box 7, a lifting platform 8 and two conveyor belts 9. The lifting platform 8 is installed on the frame 1 and is located at the end of the feeding conveyor belt 2 away from the unloading conveyor belt 3. The lifting platform 8 is slidably connected to the frame 1 in the vertical direction by a first motor and a screw, that is, the screw is rotatably connected to the frame 1 and threadedly connected to the lifting platform 8. The first motor drives the screw to rotate, so that the lifting platform 8 slides along the guide rail 12.
[0042] Reference Figure 4 The logistics box 7 can be placed on the frame 1 with its opening facing the feeding conveyor belt 2. Inside, there are multiple trays 13 arranged vertically. Each tray 13 has two clearance grooves 14. Two conveyor belts 9 are connected to the frame 1 and are connected to the feeding conveyor belt 2 and located above the lifting platform 8. A positioning pin is fixedly connected to the lifting platform 8. The bottom of the logistics box 7 has a corresponding positioning hole. The positioning pin and the positioning hole cooperate to limit the horizontal displacement of the logistics box 7 on the lifting platform 8. The clearance grooves 14 on the trays 13 have guide rounded corners to prevent the conveyor belts 9 from getting stuck on the trays 13.
[0043] Reference Figure 2 When the logistics box 7 is placed on the lifting platform 8, the two conveyor belts 9 are located inside the logistics box 7. When the lifting platform 8 moves the logistics box 7 up and down, the two conveyor belts 9 can move along the clearance grooves 14 on multiple pallets 13 to transport the pump bodies 10 on different pallets 13 to the feeding conveyor belt 2. A single pump body 10 is placed across both sides of the clearance groove 14, so that the pump body 10 can be transported smoothly on the conveyor belt 9. After the previous process, the pump bodies 10 are neatly arranged into the logistics box 7 as needed, reducing the possibility of the pump body 10 shifting significantly after being transported to the feeding conveyor belt 2.
[0044] Reference Figure 5 It also includes a double-inclined roller central conveying mechanism 18, which includes two sets of inclined rollers 19. The two sets of inclined rollers 19 are rotatably connected to the frame 1 and located between the feed end of the conveyor belt 9 and the feeding conveyor belt 2. The two sets of inclined rollers 19 are symmetrically arranged in the inclination direction to guide the pump body 10 in a central position. Each set of inclined rollers 19 is connected to a servo motor 20 and a friction belt 21. The friction belt 21 is driven and connected to the frame 1. The servo motor 20 drives the friction belt 21. The friction belt 21 abuts against multiple inclined rollers 19 in the same group, so that multiple inclined rollers 19 in the same group rotate synchronously and the two sets of inclined rollers 19 rotate at the same speed, ensuring that the pump body 10 is conveyed along the central path.
[0045] Reference Figure 1 The guide sleeve feeding mechanism 22 is installed on the frame 1 and is used to transport the guide sleeve 5 to the designated position of the pump body 10. The guide sleeve feeding mechanism 22 includes a first vibrating plate 23 and a conveying track 24. The first vibrating plate 23 is fixedly connected to the frame 1. One side of the conveying track 24 is fixedly connected to the first vibrating plate 23, and the other side of the conveying track 24 faces the turntable 35. Adjustable guide plates are provided on both sides of the conveying track 24. The guide plates are connected to the conveying track 24 by bolts to adapt to guide sleeves 5 of different specifications. A photoelectric sensor is provided at the end of the conveying track 24 to detect whether the guide sleeve 5 is in place.
[0046] Reference Figure 10 and Figure 11The inlet connector feeding mechanism 28 is installed on the frame 1 and is used to transport the inlet connector 4 to the designated position of the pump body 10. The inlet connector feeding mechanism 28 includes a second vibrating plate 29 and a feeding track 30. The second vibrating plate 29 is fixedly connected to the frame 1 and is located above the feeding conveyor belt 3. One end of the feeding track 30 is fixedly connected to the second vibrating plate 29, and the other end is slidably connected to a pressure plate 31. That is, a pressing cylinder 32 is fixedly connected below the feeding track 30. One end of the piston rod of the pressing cylinder 32 is fixedly connected to the pressure plate 31. A pressure sensor is provided at the bottom of the pressure plate 31. When the inlet connector 4 falls onto the pump body 10, the pressing cylinder 32 drives the pressure plate 31 to move to abut against the inlet connector 4. The pressure sensor monitors the pressing force in real time and performs precise pressing of the inlet connector 4 on the pump body 10.
[0047] Reference Figure 6 The mounting mechanism 34 includes a turntable 35, multiple moving rods 36, and a drive assembly 37. The turntable 35 is rotatably connected to the frame 1. A divider 38 is connected to the turntable 35 and is driven by a servo motor 20 to ensure precise rotation angle of the turntable 35 each time. The multiple moving rods 36 are movably connected to the circumferential sides of the turntable 35. Each of the multiple moving rods 36 is provided with several plug-in blocks 39, which can respectively cooperate with multiple piston holes 40 on the pump body 10. The drive assembly 37 is used to drive the moving rods 36 to move and rotate axially. When the turntable 35 rotates to the position where the moving rod 36 is directly opposite the feeding conveyor belt 2, the drive assembly 37 drives several plug-in blocks 39 to engage with the corresponding piston holes 40 and lifts the pump body 10. When the turntable 35 rotates to the position where the moving rod 36 is directly opposite the guide sleeve feeding mechanism 22, the guide sleeve 5 falls to the designated position of the pump body 10. When the turntable 35 rotates to the position where the moving rod 36 is directly opposite the unloading conveyor belt 3, the water inlet connector 4 falls to the designated position of the pump body 10. After pressing the guide sleeve 5 and the water inlet connector 4 onto the pump body 10, the pump body 10 is placed on the unloading conveyor belt 3 and the moving rod 36 is reset.
[0048] Reference Figure 7 and Figure 9 The drive assembly 37 includes multiple movable seats 41, multiple limiting cylinders 42, and multiple sets of drive sources 43. The multiple movable seats 41 are slidably connected to the turntable 35 in the vertical direction. The multiple limiting cylinders 42 are respectively disposed on the movable seats 41. The multiple limiting cylinders 42 are respectively provided with guide slides 44, and the multiple limiting cylinders 42 are respectively sleeved on the corresponding movable rods 36. The multiple movable rods 36 are respectively provided with guide blocks 45, and the multiple guide blocks 45 slide along the corresponding guide slides 44. The multiple sets of drive sources 43 are respectively used to drive the corresponding movable seats 41 to slide in the vertical direction and the movable rods 36 to move relative to the limiting cylinders 42.
[0049] Reference Figure 7The guide slide 44 includes a linear movement section 46 and a rotating section 47. The linear movement section 46 is located at one end of the limiting cylinder 42 near the rotation axis of the turntable 35. The linear movement section 46 is used to guide the moving rod 36 to move axially in a straight line, and the rotating section 47 is used to guide the moving rod 36 to rotate. The linear movement section 46 has a straight trajectory, which allows the moving rod 36 to extend and retract quickly, shortening the alignment time with the pump body 10. The rotating section 47 has an arc-shaped trajectory, which causes the pump body 10 to rotate after the insertion block 39 is inserted into the piston hole 40.
[0050] Reference Figure 6 and Figure 7 The drive source 43 includes a first electric cylinder 48 and a second electric cylinder 49. The first electric cylinder 48 is fixedly connected to the turntable 35, and one end of the piston rod of the first electric cylinder 48 is fixedly connected to the movable seat 41. The second electric cylinder 49 is fixedly connected to the movable seat 41, and the moving rod 36 is coaxially and rotatably connected to the piston rod of the second electric cylinder 49. The first electric cylinder 48 is specifically responsible for the vertical lifting and lowering of the movable seat 41, and the second electric cylinder 49 is specifically responsible for the extension, retraction, and rotation of the moving rod 36. The two cylinders have separate motion dimensions and can independently adjust their speed and stroke. The dual-cylinder configuration allows for independent and controllable motion, avoids interference, and improves efficiency through coordinated action, thus shortening the cycle time.
[0051] Reference Figure 8 An anti-sliding block 50 is slidably connected to the plug block 39 along a direction perpendicular to the axis of the moving rod 36. One end of the anti-sliding block 50 is provided with a first inclined surface 51. A driving rod 52 is slidably connected to the moving rod 36 on the same axis. One end of the driving rod 52 is provided with a second inclined surface 53 that abuts against the first inclined surface 51. A limiting block 54 is provided on the driving rod 52, and a limiting groove 55 that cooperates with the limiting block 54 is provided on the limiting cylinder 42. When the moving rod 36 moves away from the limiting cylinder 42, the driving rod 52 pushes the anti-sliding block 50 to slide away from the central axis of the moving rod 36 through the inclined surface cooperation. When the moving rod 36 extends, the driving rod 52 pushes the anti-sliding block 50 to expand through the second inclined surface 53, forming contact with the inner wall of the piston hole 40 to prevent the pump body 10 from falling off. When the moving rod 36 retracts, the limiting block 54 cooperates with the limiting groove 55, and the anti-sliding block 50 automatically retracts, facilitating the next cycle.
[0052] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The equipment also includes a PLC control system and multiple position sensors. The PLC control system is electrically connected to the feeding conveyor belt 2, the unloading conveyor belt 3, the lifting platform 8, the conveyor belt 9, the servo motor 20, the photoelectric sensor, the pressing cylinder 32, the pressure sensor, the divider 38, the first electric cylinder 48, the second electric cylinder 49, and the position sensors, respectively, to coordinate the actions of each mechanism according to the preset logic.
[0053] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 9In summary, the overall workflow of this device is as follows: S1 Pump Body 10: Material Preparation and Layered Conveying The feeding mechanism 6 serves as the starting point for supplying pump bodies 10. It first achieves multi-layer storage of pump bodies 10 through the logistics box 7. The logistics box 7 contains multiple vertically aligned pallets 13, each neatly holding a pump body 10 to be processed. When the equipment starts, the logistics box 7 is placed on the lifting platform 8. The lifting platform 8, according to a preset program, moves the logistics box 7 vertically, aligning the target layer pallet 13 with the two conveyor belts 9. At this time, the conveyor belts 9 start, horizontally conveying the pump body 10 on the current layer pallet 13 out of the logistics box 7. The conveyor belts 9 pass through the clearance grooves 14 of the pallet 13 to avoid interference, achieving "layered material handling" and ensuring that the pump bodies 10 enter the next stage in sequence.
[0054] S2 pump body 10 centering and material conveying: The pump body 10, conveyed from conveyor belt 9, enters the double-inclined roller centering conveyor mechanism 18. Two sets of symmetrically inclined rollers 19 rotate synchronously. Under the action of roller friction, the pump body 10 moves along the angle bisector of the two sets of rollers, automatically correcting lateral deviation, and finally enters the feeding conveyor belt 2 in a centered position. The feeding conveyor belt 2 stably conveys the centered pump body 10 to the gripping station of the installation mechanism 34, laying the foundation for subsequent precise gripping.
[0055] S3 Pump Body 10 Grabbing and Positioning: When the turntable 35 rotates to the position where the moving rod 36 is directly opposite the gripping station of the feeding conveyor belt 2, the drive assembly 37 is activated; the first electric cylinder 48 adjusts the height of the moving seat 41 so that the insertion block 39 on the moving rod 36 is aligned with the height of the piston hole 40 of the pump body 10; the second electric cylinder 49 drives the moving rod 36 to extend axially, at which time the guide block 45 on the moving rod 36 slides along the straight-moving part 46 of the limiting cylinder 42 to ensure that the insertion block 39 is accurately inserted into the multiple piston holes 40 of the pump body 10; after the insertion block 39 is inserted, the moving rod 36 continues to... As the pump moves further away from the limiting cylinder 42, the drive rod 52 cannot move synchronously with the moving rod 36 due to the cooperation between the limiting block 54 and the limiting groove 55. Its second inclined surface 53 slides relative to the first inclined surface 51 of the anti-slip block 50, pushing the anti-slip block 50 to expand outward in a direction perpendicular to the axis of the moving rod 36, and making close contact with the inner wall of the piston hole 40, thus achieving a stable gripping of the pump body 10. Subsequently, the first electric cylinder 48 drives the moving seat 41 to rise, causing the pump body 10 to detach from the feeding conveyor belt 2, completing the gripping and lifting.
[0056] S4 guide sleeve 5 installation: The turntable 35 rotates to the position facing the guide sleeve feeding mechanism 22. At this time, the pump body 10 is moved to the position synchronously with the moving rod 36. The first vibrating plate 23 of the guide sleeve feeding mechanism 22 sorts the guide sleeves 5 in a uniform posture through high-frequency vibration and transports them to the end via the conveying track 24. Under the action of gravity or the pushing mechanism, the guide sleeves 5 at the end of the conveying track 24 fall precisely into the guide sleeve 5 installation position of the pump body 10, completing the initial placement of the guide sleeves 5.
[0057] S5 Inlet Connector 4 Installation and Press-fitting: Turntable 35 continues to rotate to the position facing the inlet connector feeding mechanism 28. At this time, pump body 10 carries the initially placed guide sleeve 5 to this position. The second vibrating plate 29 of the inlet connector feeding mechanism 28 sorts the inlet connectors 4 and then transports them to the end via the unloading track 30. The inlet connectors 4 fall to the inlet connector 4 installation position of pump body 10 under the action of gravity. The pressure plate 31 at the end of the unloading track 30 moves horizontally. The guide surface of the lower surface of the pressure plate 31 abuts against the surface of the inlet connector 4 to press the inlet connector 4.
[0058] S6 Pump Body 10 Unloading and Mechanism Reset: After pressing is completed, the drive assembly 37 drives the moving rod 36 to reset: the second electric cylinder 49 drives the moving rod 36 to retract towards the limit cylinder 42, and the drive rod 52 moves synchronously with the moving rod 36; the first electric cylinder 48 drives the moving seat 41 to descend, placing the assembled pump body 10 on the surface of the unloading conveyor belt 3; the moving rod 36 continues to retract, the plug block 39 completely disengages from the piston hole 40 of the pump body 10, and the drive assembly 37 drives the moving rod 36 and the moving seat 41 back to the initial position.
[0059] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The core value of this equipment lies in its fully automated assembly of the swashplate pump inlet connector 4 and guide sleeve 5, which improves assembly efficiency and precision while reducing reliance on manual labor and operational risks. The equipment can replace manual labor, automatically completing the entire assembly process from "pump body 10 loading" to "finished product unloading." Specifically, it automatically performs layered storage and orderly transport of the pump body 10, eliminating the need for manual handling and stacking; automatically sorts and loads the guide sleeve 5 and inlet connector 4, precisely placing them in designated positions on the pump body 10; and automatically handles pump body 10 gripping, positioning, component pressing, and final unloading and transport of the assembled product, forming a closed loop of "loading-assembly-unloading." The multi-layer logistics box 7 enables batch storage of the pump body 10, with independent dual-cylinder drive ensuring no interference and synergistic efficiency. The PLC system coordinates the synchronous actions of each mechanism, significantly reducing the time required for manual loading, alignment, and assembly, and increasing productivity per unit time. It reduces repetitive manual labor such as handling, alignment, and pressing, lowering the risk of component damage due to human error, while also avoiding fatigue from long-term manual operation and saving on labor costs.
[0060] Of course, the above are just typical examples of this application. In addition, this application may have many other specific implementation methods. All technical solutions formed by equivalent substitution or equivalent transformation fall within the scope of protection claimed in this application.
