[0029] Example

[0030] Combination Figure 1-Figure 3 The present embodiment provides a lock conveying device, including: a lock accommodating groove 610, which can accommodate locks 660 to be installed in a single row; a vibrator 620, which is transmission-connected to the lock accommodating groove 610 and drives the lock accommodating groove 610 to vibrate so that the lock 660 to be installed moves along the length direction of the lock accommodating groove 610; a material transfer fixture 630, located at the discharge end of the lock accommodating groove 610, for accommodating a single lock 660 to be installed; a material pushing linear drive 640, which is transmission-connected to the material transfer fixture 630, for driving the material transfer fixture 630 to move to the clamping position of the material picking fixture 650.

[0031] Specifically, the lock buckle receiving groove 610 only needs to be able to accommodate the lock buckle 660 to be installed in a single row. In this embodiment, the lock buckle receiving groove 610 is a straight groove, and the vibrator 620 is a straight vibration vibrator 620 to prevent the lock buckle 660 to be installed from getting stuck during the vibration feeding process.

[0032] Among them, an adjustment strip 611 is provided on one side wall of the lock receiving groove 610, and the adjustment strip 611 extends along the length direction of the lock receiving groove 610 to ensure that the cross-sectional size of the lock receiving groove 610 is adapted to the cross-sectional size of the lock 660 to be installed, thereby avoiding deflection of the lock 660 to be installed during the vibration feeding process.

[0033] Preferably, the adjustment strip 611 is detachably connected to the side arm of the lock receiving groove 610, so as to facilitate replacement of the corresponding adjustment strip 611 according to the locks 660 to be installed of different specifications.

[0034] Combination Figure 2 The material transfer fixture 630 includes: a clamping seat 631, which is provided with a clamping groove 632, and the clamping groove 632 is used to accommodate a single lock buckle 660 to be installed; a side clamping part 633, which is hinged to one side of the clamping seat 631 and is located on one side of the length direction of the clamping groove 632; a clamping linear driver 634, which is installed on the clamping seat 631 and is transmission-connected with the side clamping part 633; ​​wherein, when the clamping linear driver 634 drives the side clamping part 633 to rotate toward the clamping groove 632, the side clamping part 633 can clamp the lock buckle 660 to be installed in the clamping groove 632. That is, the single lock buckle 660 to be installed conveyed through the lock buckle accommodating groove 610 is accommodated by the clamping groove 632, and the clamping linear driver 634 drives the side clamping part 633 to rotate toward the clamping groove 632, so that the lock buckle 660 to be installed is clamped in the clamping groove 632.

[0035] It can be understood that the moving end of the pusher linear driver 640 is fixedly connected to the clamping seat 631 .

[0036] In this embodiment, the material transfer fixture 630 further includes a clamping swing arm 635; the clamping swing arm 635 is located at one end of the clamping slot 632 away from the lock buckle receiving slot 610, and the middle of the clamping swing arm 635 is hinged to the clamping seat 631; the moving end of the clamping linear driver 634 is transmission-connected to one end of the clamping swing arm 635, and the side clamping part 633 is fixed to the other end of the clamping swing arm 635. Thus, the side clamping part 633 is driven to rotate toward the clamping slot 632 by the extension of the clamping linear driver 634, so that the lock buckle 660 to be installed is clamped in the clamping slot 632.

[0037] On this basis, the material transfer clamp 630 also includes a top stop portion 636, one end of the top stop portion 636 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the clamping seat 631, and the other end of the top stop portion 636 extends to the top of the clamping groove 632, so as to limit the upper end of the lock buckle 660 to be installed through the top stop portion 636, so as to prevent the lock buckle 660 to be installed from flipping over and sliding out of the clamping groove 632 when the clamping side clamp 633 clamps the lock buckle 660 to be installed.

[0038] Generally speaking, the clamping linear actuator 634 is a spring cylinder, and the pushing linear actuator 640 is a pneumatic cylinder. Of course, other linear actuators can also be used as the pushing linear actuator 640.

[0039] Combination Figure 3 It should be understood that the lock conveying device provided in this embodiment, when in use, places the locks 660 to be installed in a single row in the lock receiving groove 610 (manually placed or input through a vibration disk), so that the lock receiving groove 610 is driven to vibrate by the vibrator 620, and the locks 660 to be installed in the lock receiving groove 610 are individually sent into the clamping groove 632 of the material transfer fixture 630, and are limited by the clamping swing arm 635. Then, the clamping linear driver 634 extends, driving the clamping swing arm 635 to swing, so that the side clamp 633 clamps the single lock 660 to be installed in the clamping groove 632, and then the material pushing linear driver 640 pushes the material transferring fixture 630 holding the lock 660 to be installed to the clamping station of the material picking fixture 650, and the material picking fixture 650 clamps the lock 660 to be installed in the material transferring fixture 630 on both sides in the length direction and sends it to the installation station, thereby completing the transportation of the lock to be installed and meeting the production requirements of automated installation of photovoltaic modules.

[0040] It should be noted that the driving direction of the material pushing linear driver 640 is perpendicular to the length direction of the lock receiving slot 610. After the material pushing linear driver 640 pushes the material transfer fixture 630, the side wall of the material pushing linear driver 640 blocks the material discharging end of the lock receiving slot 610 to prevent the lock 660 to be installed from continuing to be output, or the side wall of the top crotch portion blocks the material discharging end of the lock receiving slot 610. After the material picking fixture 650 clamps the lock 660 to be installed in the material transfer fixture 630, the clamping linear driver 634 and the material pushing linear driver 640 are reset in sequence, so that the material picking fixture 650 and the material transfer fixture 630 move relative to each other, and the lock 660 to be installed is clamped by the material picking fixture 650, and at the same time, the clamping slot 632 is again facing the material discharging end of the lock receiving slot 610 to carry out the next material picking process.

[0041] The specific implementation methods described above further illustrate the purpose, technical solutions and beneficial effects of the utility model in detail. It should be understood that the above description is only the specific implementation method of the utility model and is not used to limit the protection scope of the utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the utility model should be included in the protection scope of the utility model.
