Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of assembly and processing equipment, and in particular to an assembly equipment. Background Art

[0002] During the assembly and processing of electronic products, it is often necessary to nest rubber sleeves or other objects on some parts. Since the rubber sleeve itself has some characteristics, such as small size and soft material, the rubber sleeve is currently installed manually. The manual installation process is roughly as follows: the operator holds the workpiece to be installed, then takes the rubber sleeve by hand or tweezers, and nests the rubber sleeve on the workpiece. Manual installation is labor-intensive. Since the rubber sleeve is small and soft, manual operation is difficult and the operation efficiency is low. In addition, the position of the rubber sleeve installed on the workpiece varies greatly. The installation position of different operators or the same operator at different working times may be different, affecting the yield of product assembly. Therefore, how to realize the automatic installation of rubber sleeves is a problem that technicians in this field urgently need to solve. Utility Model Content

For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in this application can be understood according to the specific circumstances. Some embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0062] The following is a further description of the embodiments of the present application in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Figure 1 , the embodiment of the present application defines the X-axis as the first direction and the Y-axis as the second direction.

[0063] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2The embodiment of the present application provides an assembly device 100 for assembling a first workpiece 300 on a second workpiece 400. The first workpiece 300 may be a rubber sleeve, a through hole 301 is provided inside the first workpiece 300, and the second workpiece 400 has a structure connected to the first workpiece 300, such as a columnar structure, so that the first workpiece 300 can be sleeved on the second workpiece 400. The assembly device 100 includes a first feeding device 10, a second feeding device 20 and an assembly device 30.

[0064] Specifically, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The first feeding device 10 is used to provide a first workpiece 300 (see Figure 4 ), the first feeding device 10 may be a vibration plate device, etc., to automatically feed the first workpiece 300 arranged along a preset direction. For example, the first workpiece 300 may be arranged along the Z-axis direction so that the through hole 301 is arranged along the Z-axis direction.

[0065] The second feeding device 20 includes a moving mechanism 21 and a carrying mechanism 22. The moving mechanism 21 is spaced apart from the first feeding device 10. The carrying mechanism 22 is connected to the moving mechanism 21 to move horizontally under the drive of the moving mechanism 21. The carrying mechanism 22 is used to carry the material tray 200, and the material tray 200 carries the second workpiece 400. It can be understood that the material tray 200 can carry and fix the second workpiece 400, thereby ensuring the stability when the first workpiece 300 is assembled on the second workpiece 400.

[0066] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The assembly device 30 includes a rotating mechanism 31 and an assembly mechanism 32. The rotating mechanism 31 is arranged between the first feeding device 10 and the second feeding device 20. The assembly mechanism 32 is connected to the rotating mechanism 31. The rotating mechanism 31 is used to drive the assembly mechanism 32 to reciprocate between the first feeding device 10 and the second feeding device 20. The assembly mechanism 32 includes a support plate 321, a material picking assembly 322 and a mounting assembly 323. The support plate 321 is connected to the rotating mechanism 31. The material picking assembly 322 includes a material picking driving member 3221 connected to the support plate 321 and a material picking member 3222 connected to the material picking driving member 3221. Please refer to Figure 4 , the material picking driving member 3221 drives the material picking member 3222 to insert into the first workpiece 300 when the material picking member 3222 is opposite to the first feeding device 10, so that the material picking member 3222 grabs the first workpiece 300, the mounting assembly 323 includes a mounting driving member 3231 and a pushing member 3232, the mounting driving member 3231 is connected to the support plate 321 and is spaced apart from the material picking driving member 3221, the pushing member 3232 is connected to the mounting driving member 3231, and the end of the pushing member 3232 away from the mounting driving member 3231 is slidably connected to the material picking member 3222, see Figure 5 When the material picking member 3222 is opposite to the second workpiece 400 , the driving member 3231 is installed to drive the pushing member 3232 to push the first workpiece 300 on the material picking member 3222 toward the second workpiece 400 , thereby assembling the first workpiece 300 on the second workpiece 400 .

[0067] The rotating mechanism 31 drives the assembly mechanism 32 to move to the position of the first feeding device 10, so that the assembly mechanism 32 takes the material from the first feeding device 10. The rotating mechanism 31 drives the assembly mechanism 32 to take the material and then rotates to the second feeding device 20 so that the assembly mechanism 32 corresponds to the second workpiece 400 in the material tray 200. The assembly mechanism 32 then assembles the first workpiece 300 to the second workpiece 400. After the assembly is completed, the rotating mechanism 31 rotates the assembly mechanism 32 to the position of the first feeding device 10 again, and so on and so forth, to achieve automatic assembly.

[0068] The support plate 321 may be a plate-like structure to provide stable support for the material picking assembly 322 and the mounting assembly 323. The material picking drive 3221 may be a cylinder, etc., and the material picking member 3222 may be a columnar structure. When picking, the material picking drive 3221 drives the material picking member 3222 to be inserted into the through hole 301 of the first workpiece 300, so that the first workpiece 300 is sleeved on the material picking member 3222, so as to facilitate moving the first workpiece 300 above the second feeding device 20. The mounting drive 3231 may be a cylinder, etc. It can be understood that the mounting drive 3231 and the material picking drive 3221 may be connected to opposite sides of the support plate 321 to avoid mutual interference between the mounting drive 3231 and the material picking drive 3221 during operation. The end of the pushing member 3232 away from the mounting drive member 3231 can be provided with an annular structure to be mounted on the picking member 3222. In this way, when the pushing member 3232 pushes the first workpiece 300, it can have a larger contact area with the first workpiece 300, which facilitates pushing the first workpiece 300 from the picking member 3222 to the second workpiece 400, and at the same time can improve the stability of the movement of pushing the first workpiece 300.

[0069] The assembly device 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application can provide a first workpiece 300 arranged along a preset direction through the first feeding device 10, and can provide a second workpiece 400 through the second feeding device 20. The assembly device 30 can be driven to reciprocate between the first feeding device 10 and the second feeding device 20 through the rotating mechanism 31 in the assembly device 30. When the assembly device 30 moves to correspond to the first feeding device 10, the material picking driving member 3221 drives the material picking member 3222 to insert the first workpiece 300, and then can move with the first workpiece 300; when the assembly device 30 moves to correspond to the second workpiece 400 in the material tray 200 carried by the second feeding device 20, the material picking driving member 3221 drives the material picking member 3222 to move to abut the second workpiece 400, and the installation driving member 3231 drives the material pushing member 3232 to move, and the first workpiece 300 on the material picking member 3222 is pushed to be sleeved on the second workpiece 400, and the assembly is completed. The above-mentioned assembly device 30 can automatically assemble the first workpiece 300 to the second workpiece 400, effectively reducing the labor intensity of the operators, improving the assembly efficiency, and forming a unified assembly standard. Through the cooperation of the material picking component 322 and the installation component 323, it can ensure that the position of each assembly remains consistent, thereby improving the assembly accuracy.

[0070] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the first workpiece 300 is provided with a through hole 301, and the material picking member 3222 includes a main body 3222a and a plug-in portion 3222c connected to each other, the main body 3222a is connected to the material picking driving member 3221, and the plug-in portion 3222c is arranged at one end of the main body 3222a away from the material picking driving member 3221, and the radius of the plug-in portion 3222c is greater than or equal to the radius of the through hole 301, and the plug-in portion 3222c is used to be inserted into the through hole 301 to support the first workpiece 300. The main body 3222a can be a columnar structure, and the plug-in portion 3222c is a cylindrical structure adapted to the through hole 301. It can be understood that when the radius of the plug-in portion 3222c is smaller than the radius of the through hole 301, the plug-in portion 3222c cannot support the first workpiece 300 after being inserted into the through hole 301, resulting in the first workpiece 300 being moved to the position of the second feeding device 20. When the radius of the plug-in portion 3222c is equal to the radius of the through hole 301, the plug-in portion 3222c is inserted into the through hole 301, and can support the first workpiece 300, thereby driving the first workpiece 300 to move. When the first workpiece 300 is an elastic rubber ring, when the radius of the plug-in portion 3222c is greater than the radius of the through hole 301, the first workpiece 300 can still be inserted into the through hole 301, thereby supporting the first workpiece 300 and driving the first workpiece 300 to move.

[0071] It can be understood that the main body portion 3222a and the plug-in portion 3222c can be formed as one piece, or can be processed separately, and the separately processed main body portion 3222a and plug-in portion 3222c can be fixedly connected.

[0072] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 , a spherical surface 3222d is provided at one end of the plug-in portion 3222c away from the main body portion 3222a, and the spherical surface 3222d is used to guide the plug-in portion 3222c to be inserted into the through hole 301. It can be understood that when the first feeding device 10 provides the first workpiece 300, if the first workpiece 300 is not moved to the preset position, by providing the spherical surface 3222d, when the plug-in portion 3222c is inserted into the through hole 301, the spherical surface 3222d can be used to guide the first workpiece 300 to move when the spherical surface 3222d contacts the through hole 301 of the first workpiece 300, thereby guiding the plug-in portion 3222c to be inserted into the through hole 301. By providing the spherical surface 3222d, the difficulty of the material taking member 3222 in taking materials can be reduced.

[0073] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 and Figure 3 The material picking assembly 322 further includes a stopper 3223, which is disposed on the support plate 321 and sleeved on the material picking member 3222. The material picking member 3222 can slide in the stopper 3223, and the stopper 3223 is used to limit the movement direction of the material picking member 3222. The stopper 3223 can be a linear bearing, an oil-free bushing, etc. By setting the stopper 3223, the movement direction of the material picking member 3222 can be limited, which is conducive to improving the stability of the material picking member 3222 during movement, thereby improving the accuracy during material picking and assembly.

[0074] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5The material picking assembly 322 also includes an elastic member 3224. A protrusion 3222b is provided at one end of the main body 3222a connected to the material picking drive member 3221. The elastic member 3224 is sleeved on the main body 3222a and respectively abuts against the protrusion 3222b and the limit member 3223. The elastic member 3224 is used to push the main body 3222a to move toward the material picking drive member 3221. The elastic member 3224 can be a spring, etc. It can be understood that after the plug-in portion 3222c is inserted into the through hole 301 of the first workpiece 300 to complete the material collection, and after the installation assembly 323 assembles the first workpiece 300 grabbed by the plug-in portion 3222c on the second workpiece 400, the material collection member 3222 needs to move toward the material collection drive member 3221 for reset. By providing the elastic member 3224, the main body 3222a and the plug-in portion 3222c can be pushed to move toward the material collection drive member 3221 when reset is required. When the material collection drive member 3221 adopts a one-way cylinder, the elastic member 3224 can be used to push the material collection member 3222 to reset, so as to reduce production costs.

[0075] It can be understood that in some other embodiments, the material picking driving member 3221 can adopt a bidirectional cylinder, and the material picking member 3222 can be driven to reset by the material picking driving member 3221 itself.

[0076] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 and Figure 3 The assembly mechanism 32 further includes a slide rail 324, which is disposed on the support plate 321 and extends along the movement direction of the material taking member 3222. Two slide rails 324 may be provided to provide better stabilization.

[0077] The material picking assembly 322 also includes a first sliding member 3225, which is connected to the material picking drive member 3221 and the material picking member 3222 respectively. The material picking drive member 3221 drives the material picking member 3222 to move through the first sliding member 3225, and the first sliding member 3225 is also slidably connected to the slide rail 324 to limit the movement direction of the material picking member 3222. The first sliding member 3225 can be a block-shaped or plate-shaped structure. It can be understood that the material picking drive member 3221 drives the material picking member 3222 to move through the first sliding member 3225, and the first sliding member 3225 is slidably connected to the slide rail 324, which can limit the movement direction of the first sliding member 3225 and improve the stability of the movement of the first sliding member 3225, thereby limiting the movement direction of the material picking member 3222 and improving the stability of the movement of the material picking member 3222, and effectively improving the accuracy of the material picking member 3222 when picking materials.

[0078] In some embodiments, see Figure 3 and Figure 5The mounting assembly 323 further includes a second sliding member 3233, which is connected to the mounting drive member 3231 and the pusher 3232 respectively. The mounting drive member 3231 drives the pusher 3232 to move through the second sliding member 3233. The second sliding member 3233 is also slidably connected to the slide rail 324 to limit the movement direction of the pusher 3232. The second sliding member 3233 can be plate-shaped, and its structure can be U-shaped. Both ends are slidably connected to the slide rail 324 respectively. The mounting drive member 3231 drives the pusher 3232 to move through the second sliding member 3233. The second sliding member 3233 is slidably connected to the slide rail 324, which can limit the movement direction of the second sliding member 3233 and improve the stability of the movement of the second sliding member 3233, thereby limiting the movement direction of the pusher 3232 and improving the stability of the movement of the pusher 3232, and effectively improving the accuracy of the pusher 3232 pushing the first workpiece 300 to the second workpiece 400.

[0079] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 5 The assembly equipment 100 also includes a detection device 40, which includes a support frame 41 and a detector 42. The support frame 41 is arranged adjacent to the moving mechanism 21, and the detector 42 is arranged on the support frame 41 and mounted above the moving mechanism 21. When the moving mechanism 21 moves the supporting mechanism 22 and the tray 200 to the bottom of the detector 42, the detector 42 detects the position of the second workpiece 400 in the tray 200 or detects whether the second workpiece 400 is assembled with the first workpiece 300. The detector 42 can be a CCD (Charge Coupled Device) camera. Before assembly, the moving mechanism 21 moves the supporting mechanism 22 and the tray 200 to the bottom of the detector 42. The detector 42 obtains the position information of the second workpiece 400 in the tray 200, such as taking a photo of the tray 200, and uploading the image of the second workpiece 400 in the tray 200 to a computer or a processor (not shown). The computer or the processor controls the moving mechanism 21 to move the supporting mechanism 22 according to the position information of the second workpiece 400 in the tray 200, so that the second workpiece 400 in the tray 200 is moved in sequence to the position corresponding to the assembly mechanism 32 located at the assembly position, and then the assembly mechanism 32 assembles the second workpiece 400 in sequence. After assembly is completed, the moving mechanism 21 moves the supporting mechanism 22 and the tray 200 to the bottom of the detector 42. The detector 42 obtains image information of the first workpiece 300 and the second workpiece 400 assembled in the tray 200, and uploads the image to the computer or processor. The computer or processor identifies whether the first workpiece 300 is assembled on the second workpiece 400 in the tray 200.

[0080] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 5The moving mechanism 21 includes a longitudinal driving member 211 and a transverse driving member 212. The transverse driving member 212 is connected to the longitudinal driving member 211, and the supporting mechanism 22 is connected to the transverse driving member 212. The longitudinal driving member 211 is used to drive the transverse driving member 212 and the supporting mechanism 22 to move along the X-axis direction, and the longitudinal driving member 211 is used to drive the supporting mechanism 22 to move along the Y-axis direction. The longitudinal driving member 211 and the transverse driving member 212 can both be linear cylinders, linear modules, etc., and the supporting mechanism 22 can be moved in a horizontal plane through the cooperation of the longitudinal driving member 211 and the transverse driving member 212. It can be understood that in another embodiment, the longitudinal driving member 211 is connected to the transverse driving member 212, and the supporting mechanism 22 is connected to the longitudinal driving member 211. As long as the longitudinal driving member 211 and the transverse driving member 212 can move the supporting mechanism 22 in a horizontal plane, it is not limited here.

[0081] The bearing mechanism 22 includes a bearing plate 221, a positioning drive member 222 and a positioning member 223. The bearing plate 221 is connected to the transverse drive member 212. The positioning drive member 222 is arranged on the side of the bearing plate 221 away from the transverse drive member 212.

[0082] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 The rotating mechanism 31 includes a rotating driving member 311 and a connecting arm 312. The rotating driving member 311 is arranged between the first feeding device 10 and the second feeding device 20. The middle part of the connecting arm 312 is connected to the rotating driving member 311. The rotating driving member 311 can be a rotating cylinder, a stepping motor, etc. The connecting arm 312 can be a plate-like structure. The middle part of the connecting arm 312 is connected to the rotating driving member 311, and the two ends are symmetrically arranged.

[0083] The assembly device 30 is provided with two assembly mechanisms 32, which are symmetrically arranged at both ends of the connecting arm 312. The rotating driving member 311 drives the two assembly mechanisms 32 to reciprocate between the first feeding device 10 and the second feeding device 20 through the connecting arm 312, so that when one of the assembly mechanisms 32 grabs the first workpiece 300 at the first feeding device 10, the other assembly mechanism 32 assembles the first workpiece 300 to the second workpiece 400 at the second feeding device 20. By setting up two assembly mechanisms 32, a high degree of parallelization and continuous operation of the assembly process is achieved. When one assembly mechanism 32 performs a grabbing action at the position of the first feeding device 10, the other assembly mechanism 32 can synchronously perform assembly work at the position of the second feeding device 20, which greatly reduces the idle time of the equipment and the workload of a single workstation, thereby significantly improving production efficiency and equipment utilization.

[0084] The working process of the assembly device 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application is roughly as follows:

[0085] First, the tray 200 loaded with the second workpiece 400 to be assembled is placed on the carrier plate 221, and the positioning drive member 222 pushes the tray 200 to move to the corresponding positioning member 223 to complete the positioning of the tray 200. Then the moving mechanism 21 moves the carrying mechanism 22 and the tray 200 to the bottom of the detector 42 in the detection device 40, and the detector 42 identifies the position of the second workpiece 400 in the tray 200. The moving mechanism 21 then moves the tray 200 to the bottom of the assembly mechanism 32 located above the moving mechanism 21, and makes the second workpiece 400 to be assembled correspond to the material picking member 3222 in the assembly mechanism 32.

[0086] Then the rotating driving member 311 drives the connecting arm 312 to rotate, so that the assembly mechanism 32 moves to the top of the first feeding device 10, and the material picking driving member 3221 drives the material picking member 3222 to move toward the first feeding device 10, so that the material picking member 3222 is inserted into the through hole 301 of the first workpiece 300, and then the material picking driving member 3221 or the elastic member 3224 drives the material picking member 3222 to reset, thereby completing the picking of the first workpiece 300. After the material picking is completed, the rotating driving member 311 drives the connecting arm 312 to rotate 180°, so that the material picking member 3222 grabbing the first workpiece 300 is opposite to the second workpiece 400 to be assembled, and then the material picking driving member 3221 drives the material picking member 3222 to move toward the second workpiece 400 until it abuts against the second workpiece 400, and the installing driving member 3231 drives the material pushing member 3232 to move toward the first workpiece 300 until the first workpiece 300 is pushed from the material picking member 3222 to the second workpiece 400 to complete the assembly, and at the same time, the material picking component 322 in another assembly mechanism 32 picks up materials at the first feeding device 10 position.

[0087] After the assembly is completed, the material taking driving member 3221 or the elastic member 3224 drives the material taking member 3222 to reset, the installation driving member 3231 drives the material pushing member 3232 to reset, and the rotating driving member 311 drives the connecting arm 312 to rotate 180°, so that another assembly mechanism 32 with the first workpiece 300 grasped is moved above the tray 200, and the moving mechanism 21 drives the supporting mechanism 22 and the tray 200 to move, so as to move the next second workpiece 400 to be assembled to the position of assembling the first workpiece 300, and the next assembly can be carried out. This is repeated until all the second workpieces 400 in the tray 200 are assembled with the first workpiece 300.

[0088] Then, the moving mechanism 21 drives the carrying mechanism 22 to move to the bottom of the detector 42 in the detection device 40. The detector 42 detects whether all the second workpieces 400 in the tray 200 are all equipped with the first workpiece 300. If there are unassembled second workpieces 400, the moving mechanism 21 drives the carrying mechanism 22 and the tray 200 to move, and moves the second workpieces 400 that are not equipped with the first workpiece 300 to the assembly position and assembles them. After all the second workpieces 400 in the tray 200 are equipped with the first workpiece 300, the moving mechanism 21 drives the carrying mechanism 22 to move to a position convenient for unloading, and the positioning drive member 222 releases the tray 200, and the operator can replace the tray 200.
