[0028] A commutator loading unit 3 located on the left side of the processing table 2, used to transport the commutator to the processing table 2; and

[0031] Two reinforcing ring pressing units 6 are located between the two reinforcing ring feeding units 5 and are symmetrically distributed on both sides, respectively used to press down the reinforcing rings inserted into the commutator from the front or back direction to prevent the reinforcing rings from falling off the commutator; and
[0032] The flip unit 7 located between the two reinforcing ring clamping units 6 realizes the state change of the front side of the reinforcing ring facing upward or the back side facing upward by flipping, so as to match the working requirements of the corresponding reinforcing ring feeding unit 5 and the reinforcing ring clamping unit 6; and
[0033] There are two quality inspection units 8 located at the rear end of the processing table 2 and on one side of the reinforcement ring clamping unit 6. One quality inspection unit 8 is used for quality inspection of the front side of the commutator, and the other quality inspection unit 8 is used for quality inspection of the back side of the commutator to check whether the reinforcement ring is placed in the commutator. A flip unit 7 is arranged between the two quality inspection units 8.
[0034] The principle of the utility model is that, through various units, the installation process of the commutator reinforcement ring is transformed from manual operation to equipment operation, and the equipment is an automated equipment, which can greatly reduce the labor intensity of workers and also improve production efficiency. The specific method is: the commutator feeding unit 3 sends the commutator to the processing table 2, and after arriving at the processing table 2, the transmission unit 4 sends the commutator to the reinforcement ring feeding unit 5, and then the reinforcement ring is placed into the commutator through the reinforcement ring feeding unit 5, and the reinforcement ring needs to be placed on the front and back of the commutator, so the two reinforcement ring feeding units are located at The flip unit 7 between 5 reverses the commutator so that reinforcement rings are placed on the front and back of the commutator. After the reinforcement rings are placed, the commutator is sent to the bottom of the reinforcement ring clamping unit 6 through the transmission unit 4, that is, the reinforcement ring is pressed down by the reinforcement ring clamping unit 6 so that the hook in the commutator is bent outward to confine the reinforcement ring in the commutator, thereby ensuring the structural stability of the commutator. After completing the pressing process, the transmission unit 4 sends the commutator to the quality inspection unit 8 for quality inspection. The quality inspection is to detect whether there is a reinforcement ring in the commutator to prevent defective products from entering the market.

After the reinforcement ring enters, the position of the commutator is adjusted by the leveler 33 to facilitate the transmission unit 4 to contact the reinforcement ring. The leveler 33 is composed of a cylinder and a pressure block 33-a. The cylinder drives the pressure block 33-a to move downward, and the outer diameter of the pressure block 33-a is consistent with the inner diameter of the commutator, so that it can extend into the commutator, and then the position of the commutator is adjusted so that the centers of the two remain at the same center. After the position adjustment is completed, the loading lift 32 drives the commutator to move upward so that the bottom surface of the commutator and the upper surface of the processing table 2 remain at the same horizontal height, and then the commutator is taken out of the loading lift 32 through the transmission unit 4 and sent to the reinforcement ring loading unit 5.

A slider rail structure is provided on the guide plate 41-a, and a cylinder is used as a power source to drive the connecting plate 42 to move on the Y-axis, so as to meet the commutator's need to adjust its position through the transmission unit 4 for auxiliary transmission. The clamp 43 is used to clamp the commutator, which is composed of two symmetrically distributed clamping arms 43-a with a reserved clamping distance. In this way, after the commutator enters the clamping distance, the two clamping arms 43-a can contact the commutator surface, thereby increasing the stability of transmission.

In this way, when grabbing, the grabber 53 is driven to move along the Z axis direction and obtain the reinforcement ring, and then the grabber 53 is driven to move along the Y axis direction to send the reinforcement ring to the top of the commutator. At this time, the grabber 53 is displaced along the Z axis direction to send the reinforcement ring to the commutator, thereby completing the feeding action of the reinforcement ring.
