Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of automation equipment technology, and in particular to an automatic screw fastening machine. Background Technology

[0002] Most products require a lot of screws for assembly and fixation. Currently, screwing is mostly done manually or by a single-axis screw-driving machine.

[0003] When this was done manually, the following problems were found during the production process: 1. Generally, it is necessary to use an electric screwdriver manually to tighten screws, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. During operation, the axis of the electric screwdriver, the axis of the screw, and the axis of the threaded hole must be in a straight line to avoid skewing or shaking. Otherwise, it is easy to cause problems such as loose screws, stripped threads, bursting screws, and damaged screw heads. In addition, the torque for tightening screws should not be too large. This requires workers to have rich experience in order to complete the production task as required.

[0004] 2. The existing screw-driving method requires manual removal of parts, and operators need to press down one by one, which is inefficient; long-term repetitive operation is labor-intensive and operators are prone to fatigue; labor costs are high; and it is not conducive to large-scale and automated production.

[0005] 3. Manual operation can also lead to problems such as uneven tightening force, inconsistent operation, and unreliable product quality.

[0006] When using a single-axis screwdriver, the screw feeding is slow, and the electric or pneumatic screwdriver needs to move repeatedly between multiple screw holes. This results in low production efficiency for products with a large number of screws, which is not conducive to reducing production costs. Summary of the Invention

[0007] Therefore, the technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to overcome the problem that the operation of handheld electric screwdrivers or single-axis screwdrivers in the prior art is relatively complicated and inefficient when workers perform product assembly operations.

When tightening screws, the suction nozzle 4363 has a through hole 4365 at its center. The cylinder 4351 drives the mounting bracket 4353 to move downwards, thereby moving the screwdriver 4352 and the screw wrench 4355 downwards until the screw wrench 4355 extends out from the lower end of the through hole 4365. After the screw wrench 4355 contacts the screw, the screwdriver 4352 drives the screw wrench 4355 to rotate, thus tightening the screw. When adsorbing screws, the cylinder 4351 drives the mounting bracket 4353 to move upwards, causing the screwdriver 4352 and the screw wrench 4355 to move upwards.
