Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a miniature circuit breaker processing equipment, and more specifically to an automatic assembly equipment for miniature circuit breakers. Background Technology

[0002] A miniature circuit breaker (MCB), also known as a microcircuit breaker, is suitable for overload and short-circuit protection of low-voltage lines. It can also be used for infrequent switching of circuits under normal conditions. Miniature circuit breakers are mainly used in various locations including industrial, commercial, high-rise, and residential buildings. A miniature circuit breaker typically includes a housing, operating mechanism, tripping system, contact system, and arc-extinguishing system. The operating handle moves the moving contact in the contact system via the operating mechanism, thus connecting and disconnecting the circuit and controlling the electrical circuit. In actual production, the moving contact is usually mounted on a contact frame, which is typically equipped with latches and other fasteners. The contact frame, latches, and other fasteners can be understood as the mechanism. During actual assembly, the moving contact is usually mounted on the contact frame, and a wire needs to be welded to it. This wire then needs to be welded to a bimetallic strip (a composite material made of two or more metals or other materials with suitable properties; also known as a thermal bimetallic strip, where the active layer deforms more than the passive layer due to different coefficients of thermal expansion, causing the bimetallic strip to bend towards the passive layer, thus changing the curvature of the composite material and causing deformation).

[0003] In automated assembly equipment for miniature circuit breakers, each step is typically processed individually, and then manually transported before proceeding to the next process. Generally, the moving contact feeding and connection to the core, as well as the wire and bimetallic welding, are usually produced and assembled separately by individual equipment. This is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and results in large equipment size and low automation. Since the moving contact is located in the slot of the contact holder (core), it can detach during the clamping process due to product size, precision, and centrifugal force during clamping rotation, affecting subsequent processing. Because the wires are typically copper, multiple copper wires are usually twisted together and welded to the moving contact for circuit continuity. However, existing copper wire connections to the moving contact and copper wire-to-bimetallic welding are unreliable. Furthermore, existing clamping structures are simple, only able to accommodate the core for the connection between the core and the moving contact, but unable to perform subsequent processing such as clamping wires or accommodating bimetallic welding, resulting in limited product compatibility and the inability to perform connection processing.

[0031] The embodiments of the present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings: Depend on Figure 1 Combination Figure 2-14 As shown, an automated assembly device for miniature circuit breakers includes a workbench 1, and further includes: Turntable 11 is mounted on worktable 1 and rotates circumferentially relative to worktable 1; The fixture 2 is used to receive the workpiece to be processed and / or to drive the workpiece to be processed to rotate; the fixture 2 is mounted on the turntable 11 and is driven by the turntable 11 to rotate circumferentially. The movement feeding device 3 is located on the workbench 1 and on the outside of the turntable 11, and is used for feeding the movement 101. The moving contact feeding device 4 is located on the workbench 1 and on the outside of the turntable 11, and is used for feeding the moving contact 102. The wire feeding and welding device 5 is located on the workbench 1 and outside the turntable 11. It is used for feeding the wire 103 and welding the wire before feeding it. The double metal feeding device 6 is located on the workbench 1 and on the outside of the turntable 11, and is used for feeding double metal 104. Welding device 7, located on workbench 1 and outside turntable 11, is used to weld double metal to wires. A hot riveting device 8, located on the workbench 1 and outside the turntable 11, is used for hot riveting the movement, moving contact, and wire. The movement feeding device 3, moving contact feeding device 4, wire feeding and welding device 5, double-metal feeding device 6, welding device 7, and hot riveting device 8 are arranged sequentially. The beneficial effects of this invention are that by including the movement feeding device, moving contact feeding device, wire feeding and welding device, double-metal feeding device, welding device, and hot riveting device, a one-time assembly of the movement, moving contact, wire, and double-metal can be achieved. This offers advantages such as convenient processing, simple structure, small product size, reliable operation, and long service life. In practice, detection equipment can also be installed on the workbench or fixed plate, such as checking whether the movement or moving contact is set on the fixture after feeding. Of course, after automated processing, the unloading device 17 usually ensures reliable unloading of the finished product, and a unloading channel or receiving frame is typically provided. In this invention, the movement feeding device, moving contact feeding device, double metal feeding device, welding device, hot riveting device, and discharge device can all be implemented using existing technologies, and will not be elaborated here.

[0032] The present invention also includes a dotting device 9, disposed between the moving contact feeding device 4 and the wire feeding and welding device 5, for dotting the movement of the mechanism so that the moving contact is disposed on the mechanism and tightly fitted to the mechanism. Specifically, the dotting device 9 includes: The dotting device 91 is located on the workbench 1; The dotting pusher 92 is mounted on the dotting frame 91 and is used to radially and horizontally push the contact from the turntable 11 so that the moving contact moves toward the mechanism and limits the moving contact. The dot-marking limiter 93 is provided on the dot-marking frame 91 and is used to press down from above the driven contact to limit the moving contact. The dotting element 94, mounted on the dotting frame 91, is used to press down on the connection between the moving contact and the mechanism from above, causing the mechanism to deform and form an interference fit with the moving contact. In actual automated production, because the moving contact is placed in the groove of the mechanism (i.e., in the groove of the contact bracket), due to product size and processing accuracy, as well as the centrifugal force generated during turntable rotation, the moving contact is prone to slipping out of the groove, affecting subsequent product processing. When the fixture rotates to this step, the dotting device of this invention uses the dotting pusher to horizontally push the contact closer to the upper edge of the groove of the mechanism and horizontally limit it, and uses the dotting limiter to vertically limit it. The dotting element does not directly act on the moving contact to avoid affecting the performance of the moving contact. At this point, the dotting element hits point A (the dotting point on the movement) of the movement. The edge of the movement groove will be deformed by the pressure of the dotting element and squeezed into the groove of the movement to form an interference fit with the moving contact, thereby making the moving contact reliably connected to the movement.

[0033] The invention also includes a glue-applying device 95, disposed between the dotting device 9 and the wire feeding and welding device 5. The glue-applying device 95 includes a glue-applying mechanism 951 for applying glue to the moving contact on the mechanism. The glue-applying mechanism 951 has a first position during installation and a second position for applying glue to the moving contact to facilitate connection between the wire and the moving contact. The dotting pusher 92 and the dotting limiter 93 operate synchronously and both act before the dotting member 94. The dotting limiter 93 is obliquely disposed on the dotting frame 91 and presses down obliquely above the moving contact to limit its position. The glue-applying device allows glue to be applied to the protruding position (B) of the moving contact, facilitating adhesion between the wire and the feed wire. This ensures the wire reliably moves with the moving contact and the clamp. During welding between the wire and the moving contact, it avoids the need for high current to ensure reliable welding between the guide and the moving contact, preventing deformation or performance differences in other components under high temperature and high current conditions, thus making the product connection convenient and reliable.

[0034] The clamp 2 includes: The fixture base 21 is mounted on the turntable 11 and is linked to the turntable 11; The movement base 22 is disposed on the clamp base 21, and the movement base 22 is provided with a movement groove 221 for accommodating the continuing movement; The clamp 23 has a first position for opening to facilitate the placement and removal of wires and a second position for clamping wires. The clamping plate drive component 24 passes through the clamping seat 21 and is linked with the clamping seat 21. The clamping plate drive component 24 is connected to the clamping plate 23 and is used to drive the clamping plate 23 to move. A double-metal holder 25, mounted on a clamping base 21, is used to receive and move the double metal parts. The double-metal holder 25 and the clamping base 21 are detachably connected. The detachable double-metal holder can be configured with different product models as needed, resulting in a wide range of product compatibility. The movement of the clamping plates reliably holds the wires, allowing for simultaneous welding of the moving contact, wires, and double metal parts.

[0035] The dual-metal holder 25 is provided with a dual-metal groove 251 for accommodating dual-metal components. A dual-metal positioning element 252 for limiting the position of the dual-metal components is disposed within the dual-metal groove 251. The dual-metal holder 25 is provided with a dual-metal clamping mechanism 26, which includes a dual-metal clamping rod 261. The dual-metal clamping rod 261 has a first position for easy placement and removal of the dual-metal components and a second position for clamping the dual-metal components. The dual-metal positioning element can position the dual-metal components to enter, thereby facilitating reliable soldering between the wire and the dual-metal components. Of course, different products or different designs require the housing to adjust the dual-metal entry position by adjusting or replacing the dual-metal positioning piece, thus adjusting the soldering position between the dual-metal components and the wire.

[0036] The dual-gold clamping mechanism 26 includes a dual-gold elastic element 262 and a dual-gold top 263 for facilitating the pushing of the dual-gold clamping rod 261. The dual-gold elastic element 262 is sleeved on the dual-gold clamping rod 261 and abuts against the dual-gold top 263. The dual-gold elastic element 262 has a tendency to drive the dual-gold clamping rod 261 towards its second position. The dual-gold clamping rod 261 is provided with a dual-gold clamping part 2611 that cooperates with the dual-gold positioning element 252 for horizontally clamping the dual-gold components. The dual-gold clamping rod 261 is L-shaped or T-shaped. The structure of the dual-gold clamping rod can reliably clamp the dual-gold sheets, and the structure is simple, convenient, and reliable in limiting the position.

[0037] The present invention also includes: Fixed plate 12, wherein the turntable 11 is coaxially arranged with the fixed plate 12 and rotates relative to the fixed plate 12; The moving contact drive 13 is disposed on the fixed plate 12 and is used to press the moving contact from above when the moving contact is placed on the mechanism. The dual-metal drive component 14 is located on the fixed plate 12 and is used to push the dual-metal top head 263 or the dual-metal clamping rod 261 to unlock the dual-metal clamping rod 261 to facilitate dual-metal feeding. An air blowing mechanism 15 is mounted on a fixed plate 12 and is used to blow air to cool the fixture of the hot riveting process when the hot riveting device 8 is performing hot riveting. The dual-metal ejection drive unit 16, mounted on the fixed platen 12, is used to push the dual-metal mandrel 263 or the dual-metal clamping rod 261 to unlock the dual-metal clamping rod 261. This structure makes efficient use of the space on the worktable, allowing the moving contact drive unit, dual-metal drive unit, air blowing mechanism, and dual-metal ejection drive unit to operate without rotating with the turntable, thus reducing energy consumption. In practice, the moving contact drive unit is mainly pressed down during moving contact feeding (when placed in the slot of the mechanism), avoiding the problem of the moving contact not being able to fall into the slot of the mechanism due to its large processing size or small slot size. The dual-metal drive unit and the dual-metal ejection drive unit push the dual-metal mandrel (dual-metal clamping rod) to unlock during dual-metal loading and after processing, respectively, facilitating reliable loading and unloading. The air blowing mechanism usually blows air into the clamps at the hot riveting device to reduce the temperature of the parts. This ensures that the moving contacts, mechanism and wires can be reliably hot riveted, while avoiding product deformation due to excessive temperature or current, which would affect product performance.

[0038] The wire feeding and welding device 5 includes: The wire guide frame 51 is used to hold the wire to be fed. Cable tray 52 is used for cable entry; The wire welding mechanism 53 is used to weld knots onto the wires; The wire cutting mechanism 54 includes a wire seat 541 and a cutter 542; the wire seat 541 is provided with a cutter drive member 543, which is connected to the cutter 542 and is used to drive the cutter 542 to cut the wire. The conductor clamping mechanism 55 is used to clamp the conductor and pull the conductor forward. The wire feeding mechanism 56 is used to clamp the cut wire and place it above the moving contact plate. The C-shaped joints on the wire can reliably weld multiple twisted C-shaped joints together, preventing the wire from scattering after being cut. This structure ensures reliable wire feeding. Specifically, the wire frame, wire feeder, wire welding mechanism, wire cutting mechanism, and wire clamping mechanism can be arranged in a long strip, with the wire feeding mechanism clamping and feeding the wire, making efficient use of the space on the workbench.

[0039] The wire holder 541 is equipped with a guide plate 544, within which a wire clamping plate 545 is provided for holding the wire. The guide plate 544 also has a wire groove 5441 for the wire to pass through. There are two cutting drive components 543, connected by a connecting plate 546 hinged to the wire holder 541. The two cutting drive components 543 are located within the wire holder 541 and are limited by it, thus achieving vertical movement relative to the wire holder 541. This structure allows the cutting drive components to reliably drive the cutting blade vertically, facilitating rapid wire cutting, continuous product processing, and features a simple structure and convenient and reliable transmission. The wire groove facilitates rapid and continuous wire feeding. Typically, the wire can be clamped by the wire clamping mechanism and pulled out of the wire groove for easy cutting by the cutting blade.
