Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments.

[0035] It should be noted that all directional indications (such as up, down, left, right, front, back...) in the embodiments of the present invention are only used to explain the relative position relationship, movement status, etc. between the various components under a certain specific posture (as shown in the accompanying drawings). If the specific posture changes, the directional indication will also change accordingly.

[0036] In the description of the embodiments, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "disposed", "connected" and the like should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection, or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection, or it can be connected through an intermediate medium, or it can be a communication between two components. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present utility model can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0037] like Figure 1 As shown, the magnetic steel automatic assembly equipment of this embodiment includes a workbench 10, a loading tray 20, a loading mechanism 30, a feeding mechanism 40, a visual recognition mechanism 50, a material picking mechanism 60, a material receiving mechanism 70 and a transfer mechanism 80.

[0038] The loading tray 20 is arranged on the workbench 10 and is used to hold the magnetic steel materials to be assembled. The loading tray 20 is preferably a vibrating loading tray. After the magnetic steels are poured into the loading tray 20 in batches, the surface of the magnetic steels can be changed by their own vibration to ensure that the required side faces upward, which is convenient for subsequent grabbing.

[0041] The feeding mechanism 40 is arranged on the other side of the loading tray 20. Figure 3 As shown, the feeding mechanism 40 includes a conveyor belt 41 and a conveyor motor 42. The conveyor belt 41 is arranged on the other side of the loading tray 20, and the conveyor motor 42 is connected to the conveyor belt 41. When the magnetic steel is placed on the conveyor belt 41, the conveyor motor 42 drives the conveyor belt 41 to operate, thereby conveying the magnetic steel from the feeding end to the discharging end.

[0042] A guide plate 43 is provided on each side of the conveyor belt 41, a pull plate 44 is provided on the outer side of the guide plate 43, and a forward and reverse screw rod 45 is provided at the bottom of the conveyor belt 41.

By rotating the forward and reverse screw rods 45, the guide plates 43 on both sides can be driven to approach or move away from the conveyor belt 41 at the same time, thereby adjusting the distance between the two guide plates 43 to change the feeding width, thereby meeting the conveying requirements of materials of different widths.

[0043] The bottom of the conveyor belt 41 is provided with a height adjustment rod 47, a locking ring 48 and an adjustment seat 49. The top of the workbench 1 and the bottom of the conveyor belt 42 are each provided with an adjustment seat 49. The height adjustment rod 47 is arranged between the two adjustment seats 49 and is locked by the locking ring 48. By adjusting the position of the height adjustment rod 47 in the adjustment seat 49, the height of the conveyor belt 41 can be changed, so as to adapt to different types of loading trays 20 or receiving mechanisms 70.

[0044] The material taking mechanism 60 is arranged on one side of the material feeding mechanism 40. Figure 4 As shown, the material picking mechanism 60 includes a PPU manipulator 61 and a material picking suction cup 62. The PPU manipulator 61 is arranged above the discharge end of the feeding mechanism 40 through a bracket 63, and the material picking suction cup 62 is arranged at the lower end of the PPU manipulator 61; the PPU manipulator 61 drives the material picking suction cup 62 to suck up the magnetic steel on the conveyor belt 41 and transfer it to the material receiving mechanism 70.

[0045] The receiving mechanism 70 is arranged at the end of the feeding mechanism 40. Figure 5-6 As shown, the material receiving mechanism 70 includes a material receiving tray 71, a rotating motor 72, a hollow rotating platform 73, a pushing tray 74 and a pushing cylinder 75. A plurality of material receiving grooves 76 are provided at intervals on the outer ring of the material receiving tray 71, and a material receiving suction cup 77 is provided at the bottom of the material receiving groove 76. The rotating motor 72 is arranged at the rear side of the material receiving tray 71 and is transmission-connected to the material receiving tray 71 through the hollow rotating platform 73. The pushing tray 74 is arranged at the rear side of the material receiving tray 71 and is transmission-connected to the pushing cylinder 75. A plurality of pushing rods 78 are provided at intervals on the pushing tray 74, and the pushing rods 78 can reciprocate in the material receiving groove 76.

[0046] A positioning ring 79 is further provided at the front end of the receiving plate 71 outside the receiving groove 76 , and a discharge port 710 is provided on the upper side of the positioning ring 79 .

[0047] The material picking mechanism 60 places the magnets one by one into the receiving trough 76 along the discharge port 710, and sucks the magnets through the receiving suction cup 77; at the same time, the rotating motor 72 drives the receiving plate 71 to rotate gradually through the hollow rotating platform 73, thereby removing the loaded receiving trough 76 and rotating the empty receiving trough 76 to the receiving station, so that the material picking mechanism 60 can place the magnets into the empty receiving trough 76.

[0048] The transfer mechanism 80 is arranged outside the material receiving mechanism 70. Figure 7-8 As shown, the transfer mechanism 80 includes a transfer robot 81 and a transfer tooling, the transfer tooling includes a transfer disk 82, a discharge disk 83 and a discharge cylinder 84, a plurality of transfer troughs 85 are provided on the outer ring of the transfer disk 82, the discharge disk 83 is arranged at intervals, the discharge disk 83 is arranged on the rear side of the transfer disk 82 and is transmission-connected to the discharge cylinder 84, a plurality of discharge rods 86 are provided on the discharge disk 83, and the discharge rods 86 can reciprocate in the transfer trough 85.

[0049] When each receiving slot 76 of the receiving mechanism 70 is filled with magnetic steel, the transfer robot 81 drives the transfer tooling to move to the side of the receiving mechanism 70, and makes the receiving tooling coaxially dock with the receiving mechanism 70; after the docking is completed, the pushing cylinder 75 drives the pushing rod 78 to move, and synchronously pushes the magnetic steel in the receiving slot 76 into the transfer slot 85 of the transfer tooling, thereby realizing the transfer of the magnetic steel material.

[0050] After the material transfer is completed, the transfer robot 81 drives the transfer tooling to move to the vicinity of the product to be assembled, so that the transfer tooling is aligned with the assembly position on the product, and then the unloading tray 83 drives the unloading rod 86 to move, pushing the magnet onto the product at one time, thereby completing the assembly of the magnet. Compared with the traditional manual assembly method, this equipment greatly improves the assembly efficiency of the magnet.

[0051] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the utility model, and is not intended to limit the utility model. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the utility model shall be included in the protection scope of the utility model. In addition, the technical solutions between the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but it must be based on the ability of ordinary technicians in the field to implement; when the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be considered that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the protection scope required by the utility model.
