Detailed Implementation
[0015] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0016] like Figures 1 to 13As shown, the present invention provides an assembly device for a built-in coiled spring phase shifter assembly, including a built-in coiled spring phase shifter. The built-in coiled spring phase shifter includes a stator a, a rotor b, a locking pin assembly c, a sprocket d, a cover plate e, a coiled spring f, a positioning pin g, and a bolt h. The device is characterized by including a base plate 1 and a worktable 2. The worktable 2 is connected to the base plate 1 via a bracket 3. A rotary cylinder 4 is connected to the bottom surface of the middle part of the worktable 2. The top surface of the worktable 2 has a first annular step 21, a second annular step 22, and a central hole 23 arranged concentrically from the outside to the inside. The sprocket d of the phase shifter is disposed within the first annular step 21, and the rotor stator is connected within the second annular step 22. Positioning block 5, rotor positioning block 5 is engaged with positioning pin g on rotor b for positioning, cylinder rod 41 of rotary cylinder 4 extends from center hole 23, top end of cylinder rod 41 is connected to rotating shaft 6, rotating shaft 6 passes through rotor positioning block 5, sprocket d, rotor b, cover plate e and is oriented to cover plate clamp 8; the worktable 2 is provided with timing clamping assembly 9, sprocket clamping cylinder 10, stator clamping cylinder 11; the top surface of cover plate e extends upward to form an annular boss e1, and the annular boss e1 is provided with a cover plate slot e11 for inserting the end of coil spring f; the base plate 1 is provided with clamping cylinder control switch 12 and rotary cylinder control switch 13.
[0017] Based on the above solutions, such as Figure 5 As shown, the timing clamping assembly 9 includes a guide mounting block 91 and a guide rod clamping claw 92. The front end of the guide rod clamping claw 92 is provided with a clamping tooth 921. One of the chain teeth of the sprocket d is provided with a timing tooth mark. The clamping tooth 921 of the guide rod clamping claw 92 engages with the timing tooth for positioning. The bottom of the front end of the guide rod clamping claw 92 is provided with a positioning step 922. The height of the positioning step 922 is adapted to the height of the chain tooth of the sprocket d. After the guide rod clamping claw 92 is pushed into the engaging chain tooth, it limits the sprocket d in both the circumferential and height directions.
[0018] Specifically, the cylinder rod at the front end of the sprocket clamping cylinder 10 extends and presses clockwise against the chain teeth of the sprocket d, clamping the sprocket d in a clockwise direction, so that the locking pin assembly c is inserted into the locking pin hole on the sprocket d and makes zero-gap contact.
[0019] Specifically, a slot a1 is vertically provided on the side of the stator a away from the sprocket clamping cylinder 10. The cylinder rod at the front end of the stator clamping cylinder 11 extends out and clamps counterclockwise into the slot a1 of the stator a, so that the stator a and the rotor b make zero-gap contact at the limiting edge.
[0020] Specifically, such as Figure 11As shown, the cover plate clip 8 includes a pressure block 81, a connecting block 82, and a pressure strip 83. The top surface of the connecting block 82 is provided with a pressure strip mounting groove 821, and the pressure strip 83 is installed in the pressure strip mounting groove 821. The center of the connecting block 82 is provided with an axial insertion hole 822. The top end of the rotating shaft 6 is inserted into the insertion hole 822 and limited in the circumferential direction. The pressure block 81 and the connecting block 82 are connected as a whole by screws. The end of the pressure strip 83 presses against the top surface of the end of the coil spring f and is located in the cover plate groove e11 on the top surface of the cover plate e.
[0021] Specifically, the cover plate e has multiple bolts h at equal angles along the circumference, the stator a has corresponding through holes for the bolts h to pass through, the sprocket d has threaded connection holes, and the bolts h pass through the cover plate e and the stator a and are threaded onto the sprocket d.
[0022] Specifically, such as Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, the bottom surface of the rotating shaft 6 is provided with a connecting hole 61, and a keyway 611 is provided in the connecting hole 61. The top end of the cylinder rod 41 is inserted into the connecting hole 61 of the rotating shaft 6 and is connected and positioned by a key 14.
[0023] Specifically, such as Figure 9 As shown, the top surface of the rotor positioning block 5 is provided with a positioning pin slot 51 that engages with the positioning pin g of the rotor b for positioning.
[0024] The working principle of this invention is as follows: like Figure 6 As shown, in the first stage, the stator a, rotor b, locking pin assembly c, and sprocket d are assembled. These four components are assembled into a single assembly with gaps between them. This assembly is placed inside the first annular step 21. During placement, ensure that one of the timing tooth markings on the sprocket d is aligned with the clamping tooth 921 of the guide rod clamping claw 92. Push the guide rod clamping claw 92 inward so that the clamping tooth 921 engages with the timing tooth for positioning. At the same time, the height of the positioning step 922 is adapted to the height of the chain tooth of the sprocket d for pressing (the height of the chain tooth of the sprocket d is different for different models of phase shifters, and the corresponding height of the positioning step 922 is also different). During this process, the positioning pin g on the rotor b is engaged in the positioning pin slot 51 of the rotor positioning block 5, so that the rotor is positioned and fixed.
[0025] Next, control switch 12 of the clamping cylinder is activated, and the push rod of the sprocket clamping cylinder 10 extends and clamps the sprocket d clockwise. The purpose of this is to insert the locking pin assembly c into the locking pin hole on the sprocket d and make zero-gap contact. The push rod of the stator clamping cylinder 11 extends and clamps the stator a counterclockwise. The purpose of this is to make the stator a and the limiting edge of the rotor b make zero-gap contact.
[0026] like Figure 7As shown, in the second stage, the cover plate e and the coil spring f are placed next. One end of the coil spring f is inserted into the cover plate groove e11 of the cover plate e. The insertion hole 822 of the connecting block 82 at the bottom of the cover plate clip 8 is aligned with the rotating shaft 6, so that the top end of the rotating shaft 6 is inserted into the insertion hole 822 and limited in the circumferential direction. At the same time, the pressure strip 83 of the cover plate clip 8 is inserted into the cover plate groove e11 where the end of the coil spring f is located.
[0027] As shown in the figure, in the third stage, the rotary cylinder control switch 13 is controlled, and the rotary cylinder 4 drives the rotary shaft 6 to rotate by an angle, which in turn drives the connecting block 82 to rotate. The coil spring f overcomes the spring force and rotates by an angle, so that the cover plate e rotates by an angle in sync. This ensures that the bolt holes on the cover plate e are aligned with the through hole of the stator a and the threaded connection hole of the sprocket d below. A series of bolts h are then tightened to complete the assembly of the built-in coil spring phase shifter assembly.
[0028] Next, control switch 12 of the clamping cylinder to retract and reset the sprocket clamping cylinder 10 and stator clamping cylinder 11, releasing the clamping torque. Control switch 13 of the rotary cylinder to reverse the rotation and reset the rotary cylinder 4, releasing the rotation torque. During the reverse rotation of the rotary cylinder 4, remove the cover plate clip 8, then remove the phase shifter assembly for the assembly of the next product.
[0029] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the invention in any way. Any simple modifications, equivalent changes, or alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical principles of the present invention shall still fall within the scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
