Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of reclosing switch production equipment technology, specifically a reclosing switch and its automatic production equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Reclosing switches are critical protection devices in power systems that ensure power supply reliability. The performance of their internal spring operating mechanism directly determines the stability of the device's operation. As the core power component of this mechanism, the energy storage spring needs to be precisely connected and fixed with the fixed bracket and energy storage crank arm. Therefore, the assembly accuracy and efficiency of the energy storage spring are key control points in the reclosing switch manufacturing process.

[0003] In the existing technology, the assembly of energy storage springs mostly adopts a semi-automatic assembly mode: the operator transfers the energy storage spring to the designated assembly station, manually adjusts the orientation of the spring hanging hole to align with the fixing bracket and energy storage crank arm, and then fixes it with a clamp to complete the docking; after the assembly is completed, the product needs to be manually transferred to an independent testing station for offline sampling inspection.

[0004] The aforementioned existing technologies have several drawbacks: First, the spring posture cannot be automatically corrected, making manual adjustment inefficient and prone to alignment errors; second, there is a lack of effective correction mechanisms for the offset of the energy storage crank arm when it is not storing energy, and forced connection can easily lead to spring bending or improper engagement; third, the connection between each process relies on manual transfer, making full-process automation impossible and limiting production efficiency. These problems directly affect the production quality and efficiency of reclosing switches, failing to meet the current industry's high-quality development needs. Summary of the Invention

Furthermore, each of the multiple processing stations is equipped with a positioning component. The positioning component includes a second electric push rod 42 fixed on the machine tool base 12.

[0025] When using, such as Figure 4 and Figures 8-11 As shown, in the first step, the energy storage spring 2 is placed into the feeding end of the rectangular feeding frame 19, and the second conveyor belt 21 is started, which drives the energy storage spring 2 to move towards the clamping area of ​​the first conveyor belt 20 and the second conveyor belt 21. The end of the spring hanging hole 6 of the energy storage spring 2 contacts the straightening inclined block 22, and the direction is gradually adjusted under the guidance of the inclined surface, and finally enters the space between the two conveyor belts in parallel. Subsequently, the first conveyor belt 20 starts and together with the second conveyor belt 21, forms an upper and lower clamp on the end of the spring hanging hole 6, and steadily conveys the energy storage spring 2 to the discharge end of the rectangular feeding frame 19. During the conveying process, the orientation of the spring hanging hole 6 is further calibrated. At the same time, the double-row synchronous conveyor belt 13 starts and drives the reclosing switch body 1 to move towards the energy storage spring 2 assembly station, so that the two are in place synchronously. like Figures 5-7 and Figure 10 , Figure 11 As shown, in the second step, the feeding motor 18 is started, and the equipment mounting frame 14 drives the first arc-shaped claw 15 and the second arc-shaped claw 17 to deflect around the hinge axis at the discharge end of the rectangular feeding frame 19. During the deflection process, the second arc-shaped claw 17 gradually approaches the first arc-shaped claw 15, and the distance between the two claws decreases. When the energy storage spring 2 reaches the discharge end of the rectangular feeding frame 19, the first electric push rod 23 is started, and the push plate 24 pushes the energy storage spring 2 to squeeze the forming plate 25. The forming plate 25 flips downward around the hinge axis, and the energy storage spring 2 smoothly disengages from the rectangular feeding frame 19 and accurately falls into the clamping range of the two arc-shaped claws, completing the gripping action. Third, the feeding motor 18 starts in reverse, and the equipment mounting frame 14 drives the two arc-shaped claws and the energy storage spring 2 to rotate around the hinge axis to one side of the double-row synchronous conveyor belt 13. During the rotation, the second arc-shaped claw 17 moves away from the first arc-shaped claw 15, the distance between the two claws increases, and the energy storage spring 2 is stretched and straightened. At the same time, the short rod 32 at the shaft end of the feeding motor 18 rotates with the motor and drives the long rod 33 to deflect, pushing the U-shaped limit frame 35 to move along the limit slide rod 34 to one side of the double-row synchronous conveyor belt 13. Finally, the top of the U-shaped limit frame 35 abuts against the ends of the two spring hanging holes 6 of the energy storage spring 2, realizing the pre-positioning of the hanging holes. like Figure 4 and Figure 12 As shown, in the fourth step, when the reclosing switch body 1 moves to the position corresponding to the energy storage spring 2, the double-row synchronous conveyor belt 13 stops, the third electric push rod 47 is started, the lifting platform 48 moves upward, lifts the reclosing switch body 1 and separates it from the double-row synchronous conveyor belt 13, and moves it between the I-beam slide bar 45 and the positioning push plate 43. Then the second electric push rod 42 is activated, the positioning push plate 43 moves towards the reclosing switch body 1, the positioning ramp 44 pushes the reclosing switch body 1 toward the side of the I-beam slide bar 45 and makes contact with it, while squeezing the reset spring 46 to retract it, and the positioning push plate 43 and the I-beam slide bar 45 cooperate to fix the reclosing switch body 1 in the center. like Figure 5 and Figure 12 As shown, in the fifth step, the adjustment motor 39 is started, the first bevel gear 40 rotates and drives the second bevel gear 41 to rotate, which in turn drives the adjustment bracket 16 to deflect around the hinge axis with the equipment mounting frame 14. When the adjustment bracket 16 deflects, the transmission gear 38 meshes with the fixed gear 36 to generate rotation. The rotating transmission gear 38 drives the adjustment gear 37 to rotate, which in turn drives the second arc-shaped pawl 17 to deflect synchronously. Through this series of actions, the angle of the energy storage spring 2 is adjusted accordingly, and finally the end of its spring hanging hole 6 is precisely aligned with the locking rod 8 of the offset energy storage crank arm 4. Step 6: Continue to start the second electric push rod 42, and the reclosing switch body 1 moves towards the energy storage spring 2. The locking rods 8 on the fixed bracket 3 and the energy storage crank arm 4 are respectively inserted into the spring hanging holes 6 at both ends of the energy storage spring 2. During insertion, the locking ball 10 is squeezed by the inner wall of the spring hanging hole 6, retracts into the storage groove 9 and compresses the locking spring 11. When the locking rod 8 is fully inserted, the locking spring 11 returns to its original position, pushing the locking ball 10 into the annular locking groove 7, thus completing the locking and fixing of the energy storage spring 2 with the fixed bracket 3 and the energy storage crank arm 4. Step 7: After assembly, the second electric push rod 42 is reset, the reset spring 46 pushes the I-shaped slide rod 45 to drive the reclosing switch body 1 to reset, the energy storage spring 2 disengages from the two arc-shaped claws, the third electric push rod 47 is reset, the reclosing switch body 1 falls back onto the double-row synchronous conveyor belt 13, and the double-row synchronous conveyor belt 13 starts to transfer it to the testing station. When the reclosing switch body 1 moves below the detection unit 49, the double-row synchronous conveyor belt 13 stops, the third electric push rod 47 below the detection unit 49 starts, the lifting platform 48 lifts the reclosing switch body 1 upward, so that the body's wiring terminal is close to the detection terminal 51, the fourth electric push rod 50 starts, the detection terminal 51 contacts the wiring terminal of the reclosing switch body 1, and the detection unit 49 performs power-on detection through the detection terminal 51. After the detection is completed, the third electric push rod 47 and the fourth electric push rod 50 are reset, and the double-row synchronous conveyor belt 13 drives the reclosing switch body 1 to the next process.

[0026] The working principle of the reclosing switch and its automatic production equipment provided by this invention is as follows: First, after the energy storage spring 2 is placed into the feeding end of the rectangular feeding frame 19, the second conveyor belt 21 drives the energy storage spring 2 to move towards the clamping area of ​​the first conveyor belt 20 and the second conveyor belt 21. During the movement, the end of the spring hanging hole 6 of the energy storage spring 2 will abut against the straightening inclined block 22 at the feeding end of the rectangular feeding frame 19. The straightening inclined block 22 pushes the end of the spring hanging hole 6 to adjust its direction through the inclined guide action, and finally makes the end of the spring hanging hole 6 enter parallel between the first conveyor belt 20 and the second conveyor belt 21. Subsequently, the first conveyor belt 20 and the second conveyor belt 21 form an upper and lower clamp on the spring hanging hole 6, which can not only ensure the stability of the posture of the energy storage spring 2 during the conveying process, but also further calibrate the orientation of the spring hanging hole 6. Finally, the regulated energy storage spring 2 is conveyed to the discharge end of the rectangular loading frame 19. At the same time, the double-row synchronous conveyor belt 13 drives the reclosing switch body 1 to move towards the energy storage spring 2 assembly station, realizing the synchronous scheduling of the energy storage spring 2 and the reclosing switch body 1. Then, through the linkage of the claw adaptive adjustment component, the energy storage spring 2 is stably gripped, stretched and taut, and pre-positioned in the hanging hole: Step 1: Start the feeding motor 18. The feeding motor 18 drives the equipment mounting frame 14 to rotate the first arc-shaped claw 15 and the second arc-shaped claw 17 around the hinge axis and move them closer to the discharge end of the rectangular feeding frame 19. During the rotation, the adjusting slider 28 drives the L-shaped transmission rod 29 to slide along the guide groove 31 on the outer periphery of the guide post 30, which in turn drives the second arc-shaped claw 17 to move closer to the first arc-shaped claw 15 along the adjusting groove 27 of the adjusting bracket 16, reducing the distance between the two claws. The core purpose of this design is to allow the first arc-shaped claw 15 and the second arc-shaped claw 17 to accurately grasp the outer periphery of the energy storage spring 2, rather than the end of the spring hanging hole 6, so as to avoid damage to the spring hanging hole 6 during the grasping process and improve the grasping stability. Then, when the first electric push rod 23 drives the push plate 24 to push the energy storage spring 2 to squeeze the material plate 25 and cause the material plate 25 to deflect downward around the hinge axis, the energy storage spring 2 disengages from the rectangular feeding frame 19 and falls into the clamping range of the first arc-shaped claw 15 and the second arc-shaped claw 17, thus completing the gripping. The second step is: the feeding motor 18 starts in reverse, and the drive equipment mounting frame 14 drives the first arc-shaped claw 15, the second arc-shaped claw 17 and the clamping energy storage spring 2 to rotate around the hinge axis, facing the side of the double-row synchronous conveyor belt 13. During rotation, the L-shaped transmission rod 29 slides in the opposite direction along the guide groove 31, driving the second arc-shaped claw 17 to move away from the first arc-shaped claw 15, increasing the distance between the two claws, and thus stretching the energy storage spring 2 straight. The purpose of this is to prevent the energy storage spring 2 from bending due to its own elasticity during the transfer process, which would cause the connection end with the fixed bracket 3 and the energy storage crank arm 4 to be misaligned. Furthermore, even when the first arc-shaped claw 15, in conjunction with the second arc-shaped claw 17, transfers the energy storage spring 2 to the side facing the double-row synchronous conveyor belt 13, waiting for precise alignment with the locking rod 8 of the fixed bracket 3 and the energy storage crank arm 4, the first arc-shaped claw 15 and the second arc-shaped claw 17 also cause the energy storage spring 2 to be in a stretched state. This stretched state is slightly longer than the normal extension length of the energy storage spring 2, and the shortest installation distance between the fixed bracket 3 and the energy storage crank arm 4 is also slightly longer than the normal extension length of the energy storage spring 2. This allows the energy storage spring 2 to be engaged with the locking rod 8 of the fixed bracket 3 and the energy storage crank arm 4 in a taut state, thereby reducing the possibility of the energy storage spring 2 loosening and falling due to its own weight or inertia when it is fixed between the fixed bracket 3 and the energy storage crank arm 4 at a normal or shorter extension length, thus improving the installation stability of the energy storage spring. The third step is: while the feeding motor 18 rotates in the opposite direction, the short rod 32 fixed at its shaft end synchronously drives the long rod 33 to deflect around the hinge shaft. The long rod 33 pushes the U-shaped limit frame 35 along the limit slide rod 34 to move closer to one side of the double-row synchronous conveyor belt 13, so that the top of the U-shaped limit frame 35 and the ends of the two spring hanging holes 6 of the energy storage spring 2 form a precise contact. By using the U-shaped limiting bracket 35 to abut and limit, the relative positions of the two spring hanging holes 6 can be fixed, preventing the energy storage spring 2 from twisting under tension, and ensuring that the locking rod 8 of the fixed bracket 3 and the energy storage crank arm 4 can be accurately aligned to achieve the pre-positioning effect. Next, by using a continuous action of positioning the reclosing switch body 1 and correcting and fixing the offset of the energy storage crank arm 4, the problem of alignment difficulties caused by the offset of the energy storage crank arm 4 in traditional assembly is solved: The first step is: when the reclosing switch body 1 moves to the position corresponding to the energy storage spring 2, the double-row synchronous conveyor belt 13 stops running. At this time, the third electric push rod 47 is started. The third electric push rod 47 drives the lifting platform 48 to move upward, lift the reclosing switch body 1 and separate it from the double-row synchronous conveyor belt 13, so that it moves between the I-beam slide bar 45 and the positioning push plate 43. Then the second electric push rod 42 is activated, which drives the positioning push plate 43 to move towards the reclosing switch body 1. The positioning ramp 44 on the positioning push plate 43 is guided by the ramp to push the reclosing switch body 1 towards the side of the I-shaped slide bar 45 until it comes into contact with the I-shaped slide bar 45 and squeezes the reset spring 46 to produce a contraction deformation. At this time, the positioning push plate 43 and the I-shaped slide bar 45 cooperate to form a bidirectional clamping, thereby fixing the reclosing switch body 1 in the center and preventing the body from shifting during subsequent assembly, which would cause the locking rod 8 to deviate from the alignment of the spring hanging hole 6. The second step is: Since the energy storage crank arm 4 lacks rigid constraint in the non-energy storage state, it is easy to deviate around the hinge axis under the action of external force, which causes its locking rod 8 to be unable to align with the spring hanging hole 6 of the energy storage spring 2. Therefore, this solution achieves angle adaptive correction through a gear linkage mechanism: by starting the adjustment motor 39, the adjustment motor 39 drives the first bevel gear 40 to rotate, the first bevel gear 40 meshes with the second bevel gear 41 to drive the adjustment bracket 16 to deflect around the hinge axis with the equipment mounting frame 14, and the deflection direction is opposite to the offset direction of the energy storage crank arm 4; During the deflection of the adjusting bracket 16, the transmission gear 38 connected to it meshes with the fixed gear 36 on the equipment mounting frame 14. Since the fixed gear 36 is fixed, the transmission gear 38 rotates on its own axis while revolving around the fixed gear 36. The rotating transmission gear 38 then meshes with the adjusting gear 37 on the outer periphery of the second arc-shaped pawl 17, causing the second arc-shaped pawl 17 to deflect synchronously. The purpose of this linkage structure is to adjust the bracket 16 so that the second arc-shaped claw 17 moves as a whole, bringing the energy storage spring 2 closer or further away from the energy storage crank arm 4. At the same time, the deflection of the second arc-shaped claw 17 itself can adjust the angle of the energy storage spring 2, ensuring that the end of one spring hanging hole 6 of the energy storage spring 2 is precisely aligned with the locking rod 8 of the offset energy storage crank arm 4, and preventing the energy storage spring 2 from bending due to forced pulling. The third step is: after the spring hanging hole 6 is aligned with the locking rod 8 of the fixed bracket 3 and the energy storage crank arm 4, continue to start the second electric push rod 42 to drive the centrally fixed reclosing switch body 1 to move towards the energy storage spring 2, so that the locking rod 8 on the fixed bracket 3 and the energy storage crank arm 4 are respectively inserted into the spring hanging holes 6 at both ends of the energy storage spring 2. During insertion, the locking ball 10 on the outer periphery of the locking rod 8 is squeezed by the inner wall of the spring hanging hole 6, retracts into the storage groove 9 and compresses the locking spring 11. When the locking rod 8 is fully inserted into the spring hanging hole 6, the locking ball 10 moves to the position of the annular locking groove 7. The locking spring 11 resets and pushes the locking ball 10 into the annular locking groove 7. Through the snap-fit ​​cooperation between the locking ball 10 and the annular locking groove 7, the energy storage spring 2 is quickly locked and fixed to the fixed bracket 3 and the energy storage crank arm 4 without the need for manual alignment and bolt tightening, which greatly improves the assembly efficiency. Finally, the testing phase begins. After assembly, the second electric push rod 42 resets, the reset spring 46 pushes the I-shaped slide rod 45 to reset the reclosing switch body 1, the energy storage spring 2 disengages from the first arc-shaped claw 15 and the second arc-shaped claw 17, the third electric push rod 47 resets, and the reclosing switch body 1 returns to the double-row synchronous conveyor belt 13. The double-row synchronous conveyor belt 13 starts and transfers the assembled reclosing switch body 1 to the testing station. When the reclosing switch body 1 is moved to the bottom of the detection unit 49, the double-row synchronous conveyor belt 13 stops, the third electric push rod 47 under the detection unit 49 starts, and drives the lifting platform 48 to lift the reclosing switch body 1 upward, so that the wiring terminal of the reclosing switch body 1 moves closer to the detection terminal 51. Then the fourth electric push rod 50 is activated. The fourth electric push rod 50 drives the detection terminal 51 to contact the wiring terminal of the reclosing switch body 1. The detection unit 49 performs power-on detection on the reclosing switch body 1 through the detection terminal 51 to verify whether the energy storage spring 2 is reliably engaged. If the engagement is not in place, it will cause abnormal operation of the energy storage transmission mechanism, which will then be reflected in the power-on parameters and whether the basic functions of the reclosing switch are normal. After the test is completed, the third electric push rod 47 and the fourth electric push rod 50 are reset, and the double-row synchronous conveyor belt 13 drives the reclosing switch body 1 to the next process, realizing a seamless connection between assembly and testing.
