Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of power tool technology, and in particular to a riveting tool with an integrated stroke detection module and a stroke detection method thereof. Background Technology
[0002] A rivet gun, also known as a riveting tool, is a tool used in the manufacturing industry for fastening and riveting metal sheets, pipes, and other materials. It is widely used in product riveting across various industries. Currently, riveting tools can generally be divided into four types based on their power source: electric riveting tools, hydraulic riveting tools, pneumatic riveting tools, and manual riveting tools. Among these, electric riveting tools are widely used due to their fast and efficient riveting capabilities.
[0003] Since electric riveting tools typically use a stretching method to rivet products, they need to be used with special rivet connectors. Typically, the most commonly used type is the blind rivet.
[0004] Typically, electric riveting tools consist of a housing containing a gripping unit and a power unit. During operation, the gripping unit grips the shank of the pop rivet, and the power unit moves the gripping unit to break the shank, thus completing the riveting.
[0005] The riveting stroke usually relies on the operator to perceive changes in the motor sound by hearing and changes in the vibration frequency of the handle by touch, while also observing the extension and retraction displacement of the piston rod of the gun head based on experience. The trigger should be released immediately at the moment a "click" breaking sound is heard. If an abnormal riveting is encountered, a limit sleeve should be used for mechanical limiting or repeated inching operations should be performed to verify whether the rivet has reached the preset breakage position.
[0006] Existing patents disclose a displacement measurement device and method for a linear intelligent valve positioner. The device includes a control module, a detection module, and a motion module. A linear magnetic strip is located above the linear valve displacement module and is parallel to the screw. The detection module includes a magnetic conductor and a magnetic detection device, which remains fixed during operation. The control module controls the movement of the linear valve displacement module during operation. During the movement of the linear valve displacement module, the magnetic conductor in the detection module feeds back a magnetic signal to the control module. The control module receives and feeds back the magnetic detection signal to a host computer, which then determines the displacement of the linear intelligent valve positioner based on the magnetic detection signal. This invention provides an important detection component for the accuracy of valve position feedback in non-contact linear intelligent positioners, and its non-contact installation is convenient and highly reliable.
[0007] The existing technical solutions mentioned above have the following drawbacks: 1. The traditional riveting tool relies solely on the operator's experience to judge the position where the rivet breaks, which can no longer meet the stringent requirements of modern industry for assembly consistency. Especially on automated production lines, the piston stroke length at the moment the rivet breaks directly determines the forming quality and connection reliability of the riveting joint.

[0024] The present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0025] Reference Figure 1 The riveting tool disclosed in this application, which integrates a stroke detection module, includes: The riveting tool body, used to complete the riveting action of rivets, includes a power module and an action execution module; the power module includes a motor cylinder; a synchronous magnetic strip is connected to the end of the power module away from the transmission module; The stroke detection module is located on the inner wall of the riveting tool body and is electrically connected to the controller module. The stroke detection module includes a synchronous magnetic strip and a displacement sensor, which is used to detect and transmit the magnetic field change signal of the synchronous magnetic strip located at one end of the power module through the displacement sensor. The controller module is located at the bottom of the grip position of the riveting tool body. It is used to receive and convert magnetic field change signals, generate motor cylinder displacement, and generate stroke stop signal in combination with preset critical displacement threshold to control the on and off of the action execution module. The action execution module includes an air supply unit and / or a switching unit.
[0026] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 When the riveting tool in this application is a rivet gun, the rivet gun includes: The riveting tool body is the rivet gun body 1. The displacement sensor 181 of the stroke detection module 18 is set on the inner wall of the rivet gun body 1 and is electrically connected to the controller module 17. It is used to detect and transmit the magnetic field change signal of the synchronous magnetic strip 182 set at one end of the motor cylinder 14 (power module). The controller module 17 is located at the bottom of the grip position of the rivet gun body 1. It is used to receive and convert magnetic field change signals, generate motor cylinder displacement, and combine with preset critical displacement thresholds to correct the pressing amount and / or air delivery amount, and control the on / off of the action execution module. The action execution module includes a cylinder (air supply unit) 15 and / or a push switch (switching unit) 16.
[0027] In this embodiment, when the riveting tool body starts the riveting action, the stroke detection module set on the inner wall monitors the magnetic field change signal generated by the synchronous magnetic strip fixed at one end of the motor cylinder in real time, and transmits the signal to the controller module located at the bottom of the grip position. The controller module receives and analyzes the magnetic field signal, converts it into the actual displacement of the motor cylinder, and compares this displacement with the internally preset critical displacement threshold to dynamically determine whether the current riveting process is close to or has reached the preset position. If the displacement exceeds or is about to exceed the threshold, the controller module will correct the subsequent pressing amount and / or air supply amount in real time according to the deviation value, and adjust the execution intensity by controlling the on and off of the action execution module. The action execution module includes an air supply unit and a switch unit. The pressure detection module and air supply detection module built into the switch unit can provide real-time feedback on the gas flow and pressure in the air supply unit to form a closed-loop control. Finally, by precisely controlling the coordination of the air supply and the pressing action, the rivet is ensured to be accurately and stably riveted at the preset position, realizing automated and high-precision riveting quality control.
[0028] Preferably, the rivet gun body 1 further includes: The drive shaft 12 has a fastener (fastening module) 13 connected to one end and a motor cylinder 14 connected to the other end, and the fastener 13 and the motor cylinder 14 can slide relative to the retaining housing 11. The cylinder 15 extends into the retaining housing 11 through the air supply pipe 151 and is connected to one end of the control chamber of the drive shaft 12. The pressure in the control chamber is changed by the pneumatic motor, so that the fastener 13 and the motor cylinder 14 slide relative to the retaining housing 11. The push switch 16 is connected to the retaining housing 11 by a spring, and the push switch 16 is used to change the on / off state of the cylinder 15. A synchronous magnetic strip 19 is connected to the end of the motor cylinder 14 away from the drive shaft 12.
[0029] In this embodiment, when the operator presses the switch unit connected to the retaining housing via a spring, the on / off state of the cylinder changes, allowing compressed air from the pneumatic motor to enter or be blocked in the control chamber of the transmission module, thereby changing the gas pressure within the chamber. Driven by the pressure difference, the transmission module drives the fastener connected to one end and the motor cylinder connected to the other end to slide synchronously along the inner wall of the retaining housing, thus completing the riveting action. During this process, a synchronous magnetic strip is fixedly connected to the end of the motor cylinder away from the transmission module. The magnetic strip moves along with the motor cylinder and extends into a protective box that communicates with the inner cavity of the retaining housing. The stroke detection module inside the protective box can sense the magnetic field changes caused by the movement of the magnetic strip in real time, achieving non-contact and accurate monitoring of the displacement of the motor cylinder. The detachable retaining housing, composed of two combined housings, provides a stable mounting and gripping position for each component, and facilitates the maintenance and repair of the internal mechanism, ensuring the stable operation and precise control of the entire pneumatic-mechanical transmission system.
[0030] Preferably, the output end of the motor cylinder 14 is connected to a protective box 19, the stroke detection module 18 is located in the inner cavity of the protective box 19, and the stroke detection module 18 is connected to the protective box 19. The inner cavity of the protective box 19 is in communication with the inner cavity of the retaining shell 11. The controller module 17 is located in the inner cavity of the protective cover 21 and is connected to the protective cover 21; the protective cover 21 includes at least two semi-protective housings and is detachably fixedly connected to adjacent semi-protective housings; the retaining housing 11 includes a grip position and multiple mounting positions; the retaining housing 11 includes two combined housings 111 and is detachably fixedly connected to the two combined housings 111.
[0031] In this embodiment, the protective box fixed to the inner wall of the outer shell provides a stable mounting base for the travel detection module, enabling it to accurately sense the magnetic field changes caused by the movement of the synchronous magnetic strip. At the same time, the controller module is encapsulated in a protective cover composed of multiple detachable semi-protective shells, forming an independent protective cavity. This split protection design not only ensures that electronic components are protected from external impacts and dust interference, but also facilitates independent inspection and replacement of the module through the detachable structure, thereby ensuring the stable operation of magnetic field signal detection and command control.
[0032] Reference Figure 4 A stroke detection method for a riveting tool, applied to a riveting tool with an integrated stroke detection module, comprising: A: Initialize the stroke detection module 18 and establish the movement limit reference of the motor cylinder 14 according to the working status of the riveting tool; B: The stroke detection module 18 detects the magnetic field generated by the synchronous magnetic strip 19 that moves synchronously with the motor cylinder 14, and collects and transmits the magnetic field change signal to the controller module 17. C: After cleaning the magnetic field change signal, the controller module 17 converts it into the displacement of the motor cylinder and calculates the displacement change vector between adjacent time moments. D: The controller module 17 generates a stroke stop signal based on a preset critical displacement threshold and the displacement change vector; E: Controller module 17 sends a stroke stop signal to the action execution module to complete the riveting action of the rivet.
[0033] The operation flow of controller module 17 includes: S1: Allocate and control stroke stop signals according to the preset component coordination mode, and construct a signal sequence to be implemented; S2: Sort the signal columns to be implemented according to the movement limit reference and timestamp, and determine the signal transmission sequence; S3: Based on the component type and the signal transmission sequence, the stroke stop signal is transmitted in stages to the ventilation volume detection module and the pressure detection module to calculate the pressing amount and the air delivery amount; S4: Calculate the corresponding correction amount based on the pressing amount and / or air delivery amount combined with the preset global stroke threshold, and calculate the component operation delay according to the component operating speed; S5: Control the on / off state of the air supply unit 15 and the switching unit 16 according to the component operation delay until the critical termination position.
[0034] The implementation principle of this embodiment is as follows: When the riveting tool is performing rivet installation, the motor cylinder movement limit reference is first established according to the specifications of the rivet to be installed, and the stroke detection module is initialized. After the gun body is started, the stroke detection module captures the magnetic field change signal generated by the magnetic strip that moves synchronously with the motor cylinder in real time, and transmits it to the controller module for filtering and cleaning, accurately converting it into the displacement of the motor cylinder and generating a stroke displacement curve. The controller calculates the displacement change vector at adjacent moments to determine the movement direction of the motor cylinder in real time, ensuring that the riveting action is pushed forward. When the displacement reaches the preset critical displacement threshold, the system immediately generates a stroke stop signal and allocates and controls the signal as a signal to be implemented according to the component coordination mode. Then, the signal transmission sequence is sorted according to the timestamp, and the stop command is sent to the air volume detection module and the pressure detection module in stages to accurately calculate the current required pressing amount and air volume. Combined with the global stroke threshold, the system further calculates the correction amount and component operation delay, and finally controls the on and off of the air supply unit and the switch unit precisely according to this delay, so that the fastener stops at the critical termination position, ensuring that the rivet is installed smoothly and firmly in place.
[0035] During rivet removal, the movement limit reference is redefined and initialized according to the rivet removal requirements. Subsequently, the detection module continuously monitors the magnetic field changes of the magnetic strip during the retraction of the motor cylinder, and transmits the signal to the controller, which converts it into a displacement curve reflecting the withdrawal process. By analyzing the displacement change vector, the direction of movement of the motor cylinder is determined to be retraction. When the displacement reaches the preset disassembly critical threshold, a stop signal is generated to avoid excessive withdrawal and damage to the workpiece. This signal is processed by the collaborative mode to form a signal series, which is sorted in time sequence and transmitted to the detection module in stages to calculate the pressing and air supply parameters required to maintain smooth disassembly. Combining the global threshold and component speed, the correction amount and delay are calculated. Finally, by controlling the on / off of the air supply unit and the switching unit, the motor cylinder is precisely stopped at the critical position where the rivet is completely loosened, completing the non-destructive disassembly.
[0036] Preferably, step S1 includes: The preset component collaboration modes are parsed to extract the number of collaborative components and the component communication protocol. The component collaboration modes include timing collaboration mode, master-slave collaboration mode, parallel collaboration mode, feedback collaboration mode, coupled collaboration mode, and trigger collaboration mode. In this embodiment, the timing coordination mode controls the actions of each component according to a preset time sequence. For example, the ventilation volume detection module is started first to collect data, and the pressure detection module is triggered after a certain delay, so as to ensure that the order of signal acquisition matches the physical process.
[0037] In the master-slave collaborative mode, one component acts as the main control core, and other components adjust according to its state. For example, the position signal of the switch unit is the main control signal, and the opening degree of the air supply unit is adjusted in real time according to the pressing depth to maintain the match between pressure and flow.
[0038] In parallel collaborative mode, multiple components execute tasks simultaneously without waiting for each other, but achieve overall control through data fusion. For example, the ventilation volume detection module and the pressure detection module collect data simultaneously, and the system calculates the correction amount by combining the feedback from both.
[0039] The feedback coordination mode dynamically adjusts the output of the actuators based on real-time feedback from the detection module. For example, the opening degree of the air supply unit or the stroke speed of the switching unit can be corrected in real time based on the pressure value returned by the pressure detection module.
[0040] The trigger-coordination mode activates other components when a certain component reaches a preset threshold. For example, if the press amount exceeds the global stroke threshold, the air supply unit is immediately shut off to prevent overshoot.
[0041] The coupled and coordinated mode combines stroke position and pressure feedback for linkage control. For example, when the pressure approaches the critical termination position, the air volume is gradually reduced to achieve a soft landing.
[0042] The riveting tool is analyzed according to the component type to identify the air flow detection module and the pressure detection module, and to determine the signal action speed of the module. The stroke stop signal is divided into stages based on the number of components working together, forming a stage signal series; According to the component communication protocol, signals are distributed to the ventilation volume detection module and the pressure detection module in stages and signal sequences to obtain module feedback data. The module feedback data is time-sequentially arranged according to the module signal action speed to obtain the signal feedback timing sequence. The stage signal sequence is modified based on the signal feedback timing to construct the signal sequence to be implemented.
[0043] In this embodiment, when the riveting tool is installing rivets, the preset component coordination mode is first analyzed to extract the number of components participating in the coordination control and the corresponding component communication protocols. In installation scenarios, a combination of timing-based coordination mode and master-slave coordination mode is typically used to ensure that the ventilation volume detection module and pressure detection module respond in a predetermined order. Subsequently, based on the component type of the riveting tool, the ventilation volume detection module and pressure detection module are accurately identified, and their respective signal action speeds are measured, laying the foundation for subsequent timing control. Based on the number of coordinating components, the generated stroke stop signals are processed in stages according to key nodes in the installation process. The system is divided into ordered phase signal sequences. Following the analyzed component communication protocol, each phase signal is sequentially distributed to the ventilation volume detection module and pressure detection module, and the flow and pressure data from these modules are acquired in real time. Next, based on the pre-determined signal action speed of each module, the collected module feedback data is time-sequentially arranged to obtain a precise signal feedback timing sequence. Finally, the initial phase signal sequence is dynamically corrected based on this feedback timing sequence to construct a signal sequence to be implemented that highly matches the actual installation process. This ensures that when the rivet is pulled to the preset position, the ventilation volume and pressing volume are precisely controlled, achieving a stable installation of the rivet.
[0044] When riveting tools are used for rivet removal, the preset component coordination mode for the disassembly scenario is first analyzed. This typically involves using feedback and trigger coordination modes to handle potential jamming or other anomalies during disassembly. The number of components involved in the coordination and their corresponding communication protocols are extracted. Subsequently, based on disassembly requirements, the current status of the ventilation volume detection module and pressure detection module is re-identified, and their signal action speed under retraction conditions is measured to ensure control accuracy. According to the required precision of the disassembly process, the stroke stop signal used to control the motor cylinder retraction is divided into stages according to displacement intervals, forming... A phased signal sequence adapted to the disassembly characteristics is established. Following the analyzed communication protocol, these phased signals are distributed systematically to each detection module, and the current air pressure and piston position data fed back by the modules are acquired in real time. Based on the signal action speed of each module under disassembly conditions, the feedback data is time-sequentially arranged to generate a signal feedback timing sequence reflecting the actual withdrawal process. Finally, this feedback timing sequence is used to correct the phased signal sequence in real time, constructing a signal sequence to be implemented that can dynamically adapt to the rivet loosening process. This ensures that at the critical position where the rivet is completely withdrawn without damaging the workpiece, the air supply unit and the switching unit are precisely cut off, completing non-destructive disassembly.
[0045] The embodiments described in this specific implementation are preferred embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
