[0060] In the field of optical signal technology communication, the tube cap 1 is a commonly used optical communication component. Figure 1 As shown, the tube cap 1 includes a tube shell 12 and a glass ball 12 disposed in the tube shell 12. The glass ball 12 and the tube shell 12 are generally sealed by hot pressing. In the hot pressing process, the glass ball 12 and the tube shell 12 are generally assembled and placed in a jig 2, and then placed in a hot pressing device for hot pressing.

[0062] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 The utility model provides a fixture 2, which includes an inner ring 21, a base 22 and an upper cover 23. The base 22 and the upper cover 23 are relatively arranged at the two ends of the inner ring 21. The upper cover 23 includes a first column part 231 and a first limit part 232. The first column part 231 of the upper cover 23 is sleeved inside the inner ring 21. The diameter of the first limit part 232 of the upper cover 23 is larger than the inner diameter of the inner ring 21, which is convenient for removing the upper cover 23. Further, the base 22 also includes a second column part 221 and a second limit part 222. The second column part 221 of the base 22 is located inside the inner ring 21.

When the base 22 and the upper cover 23 are placed in the inner ring 21, the vertical section of the base 22 is an "inverted T" shape, and the vertical section of the upper cover 23 is a "T" shape. The workpiece to be processed that needs to be pressed by hot pressing or cold pressing is placed in the space formed by the inner ring 21, the base 22 and the upper cover 23. During the pressing process, pressure is applied to the upper cover 23 and / or the base 22 to move the upper cover 23 toward the base 22, thereby pressing the workpiece to be processed. The height of the first column portion 231 of the upper cover 23 can be set according to actual needs.
[0063] Furthermore, the jig 2 further includes an outer ring 24, which is sleeved on the outside of the combination of the base 22, the inner ring 21, and the upper cover 23.

The outer ring 24 can limit the distance that the upper cover 23 moves toward the side of the base 22 during press molding. When the upper surface of the upper cover 23 is flush with the upper surface of the outer ring 24, the upper cover 23 no longer moves.
[0064] Furthermore, in order to facilitate the hot pressing of the tube cap 1, an upper pressing block 233 is provided at the bottom of the first column part 231 of the upper cover 23, and the diameter of the upper pressing block 233 is smaller than the diameter of the first column part 231 of the upper cover 23. A lower pressing block 223 is provided at the top of the second column part 221 of the base 22, and the diameter of the lower pressing block 223 is smaller than the diameter of the second column part 221 of the base 22.

[0065] Furthermore, the end surface of the lower pressing block 223 facing away from the base 22 or / and the end surface of the upper pressing block 233 facing away from the upper cover 23 is provided with an arc groove 224. The arc groove 224 is adapted to the glass ball 12 of the tube cap 1, and the end surface of the glass ball 12 can be placed in the arc groove 224, which can increase the force-bearing area of the glass ball 12.

The pushing mechanism 4 is used to push the jig 2 to the position of the jig clamping mechanism 5, and the pushing mechanism 4 pushes the jig 2 along the X-axis direction. The jig clamping mechanism 5 is used to position and clamp the jig 2; the cover removing mechanism 6 is used to remove the upper cover 23 of the jig 2. After the cover removing mechanism 6 absorbs the upper cover 23 of the jig 2, it removes and moves the upper cover 23 of the jig 2, so that the head conveying assembly 7 can take out the processed workpiece in the jig 2. When a new workpiece to be processed is placed in the jig 2, the cover removing mechanism 6 covers the upper cover 23 on the jig 2. The head conveying assembly 7 is used to take out the processed workpiece in the jig 2, place the workpiece to be processed in the jig 2, and move the jig 2 to the second conveying mechanism 9. The tray assembly 8 is used to carry the processed workpiece or / and the workpiece to be processed or / and the jig 2; the second conveying mechanism 9 is used to convey the jig 2 with the workpiece to be processed placed to the processing equipment.
[0067] See also Figure 4 , Figure 5 , the first conveying mechanism 3 includes a conveyor belt 31 and two groups of limit plates 32 located on the upper side of the conveyor belt 31. The conveyor belt 31 and the limit plates 32 are both arranged on the support platform 10. Along the conveying direction of the first conveying mechanism 3, the gap between the two groups of limit plates 32 gradually decreases. The setting of the limit plates 32 can sort and position the jig 2 during the conveying process. Preferably, at the position of the pushing mechanism 4, the gap between the two groups of limit plates 32 is adapted to the diameter of a jig 2, so that at the position of the pushing mechanism 4, only one jig 2 can pass, which is convenient for the pushing mechanism 4 to push the jig 2.
[0068] See also Figure 4 , Figure 5 The pushing mechanism 4 includes a pushing transmission belt 41 arranged on the support platform 10, and a pushing seat 42 arranged on the belt body of the pushing transmission belt 41. The pushing transmission belt 41 is arranged on the support platform 10 through a pushing bracket 43. The pushing seat 42 runs on the upper side of the conveyor belt 31 and can run along the X-axis direction. A pushing groove 421 is provided on one side of the pushing seat 42 for pushing materials. The setting of the pushing groove 421 facilitates the positioning of the fixture 2 to avoid the deviation and slipping of the fixture 2, thereby facilitating the pushing of the fixture 2.
[0069] Furthermore, a blocking plate 422 extending in the pushing direction of the pushing mechanism 4 is provided at the edge of the pushing slot 421 of the pushing seat 42, and the blocking plate 422 is located on the side of the pushing slot 421 away from the material incoming direction of the first conveying mechanism.

[0070] Furthermore, the pushing groove 421 is a “V-shaped” groove or an arc-shaped groove, which is convenient for pushing the fixture 2 .
[0071] Furthermore, a pushing rail 44 is provided on the pushing bracket 43 along the conveying direction of the pushing transmission belt 41 , and the pushing seat 42 is slidably connected to the pushing rail 44 , so as to improve the pushing stability of the pushing seat 42 .

The two sets of clamping seats 52 are respectively connected to the belt bodies running in the opposite direction on both sides of the pulley of the clamping transmission belt 51, and the clamping seats 52 are slidably connected to the support platform 10. The clamping transmission belt 51 can run along the Y-axis direction, and the belt bodies of the clamping transmission belt 51 located on both sides of the pulley run in the opposite direction, thereby driving the clamping seats 52 to move closer to or away from each other, thereby achieving the clamping and loosening of the fixture 2.
[0073] Furthermore, the surfaces facing each other of the two groups of clamping seats 52 are both provided with clamping grooves 521. The clamping grooves 521 are "V-shaped" grooves or arc-shaped grooves.
[0074] Furthermore, a first slide rail 53 is disposed on the support platform 10 , and the clamping seat 52 is slidably connected to the first slide rail 53 , thereby improving the movement stability of the clamping seat 52 .
[0075] See also Figure 6 The cap removing mechanism 6 includes a cap removing nozzle 61 and a cap removing lifting mechanism 62 for controlling the lifting and lowering of the cap removing nozzle 61. For example, the cap removing lifting mechanism 62 is a Z-axis linear module, which is disposed on the support platform 10. The cap removing nozzle 61 is connected to a slide of the Z-axis linear module. When the Z-axis linear module is in operation, the slide is controlled to move up and down, thereby realizing the lifting and lowering of the cap removing nozzle 61.
[0076] Furthermore, the cover removal mechanism 6 also includes a workpiece clamping mechanism 63 for clamping the workpiece, and the workpiece clamping mechanism 63 includes two sets of clamping arms 631 arranged opposite to each other, a spacing adjustment mechanism 632 for controlling the spacing between the two sets of clamping arms 631, and a workpiece moving mechanism 633 for controlling the movement of the spacing adjustment mechanism 632.

[0077] For example, the workpiece moving mechanism 633 is a linear module arranged on the support table 10 and running along the X-axis direction or along the Y-axis direction, and the spacing adjustment mechanism 632 is arranged on the slide of the linear module. Under the action of the linear module, the spacing adjustment mechanism 632 moves horizontally. Alternatively, the workpiece moving mechanism 633 is a cylinder or a hydraulic cylinder, and the spacing adjustment mechanism 632 is slidably connected to the support table and connected to the piston rod of the cylinder or the hydraulic cylinder. Under the action of the cylinder or the hydraulic cylinder, the spacing adjustment mechanism 632 moves. The spacing adjustment mechanism 632 is a double-piston cylinder or a double-piston hydraulic cylinder, and the two groups of clamping arms 631 are respectively connected to the two piston rods of the double-piston cylinder or the double-piston hydraulic cylinder, so that the two groups of clamping arms 631 are close to or away from each other, thereby clamping the workpiece. The spacing adjustment mechanism 632 can also be a linear module with two slides, and the two slides run in opposite directions. Under the action of the linear module, the two slides move in reverse directions, thereby realizing the two groups of clamping arms 631 approaching or moving away from each other.
[0078] Furthermore, a clamping groove 634 is provided on the opposite surface of the clamping arm 631, and the clamping groove 634 is a "V-shaped" groove or an arc groove.
[0079] like Figure 8As shown, the head transport assembly 7 includes a finished workpiece head 71, a workpiece head to be processed 72, a fixture head 73, a head moving mechanism 75, and a head lifting mechanism 76. The head moving mechanism 75 is arranged on the support table 10, and the head lifting mechanism 76 is arranged on the head moving mechanism 75. The head lifting mechanism 76 is used to independently or synchronously control the lifting and lowering of the finished workpiece head 71, the workpiece head to be processed 72, and the fixture head 73. For example, the head moving mechanism 75 is a linear module running along the X-axis direction, and the head lifting mechanism 76 is arranged on the slide of the linear module. The head lifting mechanism 76 is a linear module along the Z-axis direction, and is arranged in multiples, respectively connected to the finished workpiece head 71, the workpiece head to be processed 72, and the fixture head 73, for independently controlling their lifting and lowering. The finished workpiece head 71 is used to take out the processed workpiece placed in the jig 2 , the to-be-processed workpiece head 72 is used to place the to-be-processed workpiece into the jig 2 , and the jig head 73 is used to move the jig 2 .
[0080] Furthermore, the finished workpiece head 71 is a suction nozzle structure, which is used to suck the processed workpiece (such as the pipe cap 1 completed by hot pressing), and move the workpiece to the tray assembly 8 under the action of the head moving mechanism 75 and the head lifting mechanism 76.

Alternatively, the power mechanism 724 is a linear module with two slides, the stroke directions of the two slides are opposite, and the two clamping arms 723 are respectively connected to the two slides of the linear module. The workpiece suction nozzle 721 is used to suck the glass ball 12, and the fixture 722 is used to clamp the tube shell 12. The inner surface of the fixture 722 has a curvature adapted to the tube shell 12, so that a workpiece head 72 to be processed can clamp the tube shell 12 of the tube cap 1 and the glass ball 12 into the fixture 2.
[0082] Further, the workpiece head 72 to be processed also includes a nozzle lifting mechanism 725 for controlling the up and down movement of the workpiece nozzle 721. The nozzle lifting mechanism 725 is a cylinder or a hydraulic cylinder. The workpiece nozzle 721 moves up and down under the action of the nozzle lifting mechanism 725, so that the workpiece nozzle 721 has an up and down displacement relative to the clamp 722 of the workpiece head 72 to be processed, which is convenient for sucking the glass ball 12. Specifically, the power mechanism 724 for controlling the distance between the two clamping arms 723 can be arranged on the nozzle lifting mechanism 725 or on the support plate 726. The nozzle lifting mechanism 725 is arranged on the support plate 726.

[0083] Furthermore, the opposing surfaces of the two clamping arms 723 are provided with a “V-shaped” groove or an arc groove.
[0084] Further, such as Fig.10 As shown, the jig head 73 is a fixture, and its structure is consistent with the structure of the fixture 722 of the workpiece head 72 to be processed. The jig head 73 is used to clamp the jig 2 with the workpiece to be processed (such as the tube shell 12 and the glass ball 11) placed thereon, and cover the upper cover 23, and move the jig 2 to the second conveying mechanism 9 under the action of the head moving mechanism 75 and the head lifting mechanism 76.
