[0018] The working process of this utility model is:
[0019] Edge recognition: After the main component of the edge recognition mechanism is divided and rotated to recognize the edge, the first clamping jaw in the clamping mechanism clamps the recognized main component to the main component fixture in the assembly mechanism through the clamping jaw cylinder, and the assembled plastic sub-clamp is clamped to the assembly station by the second clamping jaw. The two clamping jaws of the clamping mechanism act simultaneously, which effectively improves efficiency.
[0020] Positioning: The assembly mechanism completes the incoming plastic materials and the positioning of the main components through the plastic sub-material rail and the main component fixture installed on the vertical plate. When the first clamp on the clamping mechanism clamps the main component, it is placed on the main component fixture to complete the positioning of the main component; the rear of the plastic sub-material rail is connected to a vibration plate, and under the action of the vibration plate, the plastics are arranged in the plastic sub-material rail without gaps until the end.
[0021] Detection: The probes and sensors installed on the base plate are used to detect whether the plastic material is in place. A spring is inserted between the probe and the base plate. In the absence of external force, the end of the probe is flush with the outer side of the base plate. When the plastic material reaches the end of the plastic material rail, the plastic material pushes the end of the probe to move outward and protrude from the base plate. The end of the probe is detected by the sensor, and the sensor outputs a signal, which is considered to be the presence of the plastic material. When the material is removed, the probe returns to a position flush with the side of the base plate under the action of the spring.
[0022] Assembly: When the control system receives the assembly instruction, the edge recognition mechanism is activated, and the first clamping jaw clamps a main component with recognized edges to the main component fixture; the sleeve needle completes the plastic material distribution under the drive of the material distribution cylinder, and the sleeve needle set on the movable jaw can clamp the plastic; when the incoming plastic is detected, the clamping jaw cylinder clamps and drives the movable jaw to clamp the plastic on both sides; then, the material distribution cylinder rises, driving the clamping jaw cylinder, fixed jaw, movable jaw, connecting plate and plastic to rise, so that the plastic on both sides are assembled with the main component; then, the second clamping jaw in the clamping mechanism descends to clamp the assembled parts. At this time, the clamping jaw cylinder releases the movable jaw and pulls out the sleeve needle. The position of the plastic is not affected by the blockage of the fixed jaw and remains in the assembled state.
[0023] Clamping: The first clamping jaw and the second clamping jaw on the clamping mechanism respectively deliver the main component and the assembled parts to the main component fixture and the subsequent assembly station to complete the entire process.
[0024] After that, the next product enters the edge recognition, positioning, inspection, assembly and clamping cycle. At the beginning of the work, since there is no product at the assembly station, the process will be executed twice to meet the assembly requirements.
