Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of automobile wire harness processing equipment, in particular to an automatic crimping metal hoop transfer and positioning device. Background Art
[0002] Crimping of wire harness sheath and metal ferrule is a common electrical connection and protection method. Wire harness sheath is an outer protective layer used to wrap wires or cables to provide mechanical protection, insulation protection and environmental protection. It is usually made of materials such as plastic or rubber and has properties such as wear resistance, chemical corrosion resistance and insulation. Wire harness sheath can protect automotive wiring harness from external physical damage and environmental influences; metal ferrule is a device used to fix wire harness sheath, usually made of stainless steel or galvanized steel. Metal ferrule can firmly fix the wire harness sheath to the automotive wiring harness by crimping, keeping the sheath in a stable position and providing additional protection.
[0003] The traditional crimping of sheath and metal ferrule is divided into two parts. First, the sheath and wire harness are crimped on one device, and then the wire harness with the sheath crimped is manually transferred to another device for crimping the metal ferrule. This processing method is inefficient, and secondary crimping positioning is required during the transfer of the wire harness, which can easily cause positioning deviation, making it impossible to guarantee the quality of the crimping.

[0029] Combination Figures 1 to 4 The automatic crimping metal ferrule transfer and positioning device shown comprises a sheath correction mechanism 1 and a sheath transfer mechanism 2 , and also comprises a cable clamp 202 , a sheath positioning clamp 203 and a sheath correction clamp 105 .
[0030] Specifically, by Figure 1 and Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the cable clamp 202 is movably disposed on the sheath transfer mechanism 2 , and after being moved to a suitable position, the cable clamp 202 is closed to clamp the cable.
[0031] Depend on Figure 1and Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the sheath positioning jaw 203 is movably arranged on the sheath transfer mechanism 2. After moving to a suitable position, the sheath positioning jaw 203 is closed to clamp the cable, and the movement direction of the sheath positioning jaw 203 is parallel to the movement direction of the sheath correction jaw 105;
[0032] Depend on Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the sheath correction jaw 105 is movably arranged on the sheath correction mechanism 1. After moving to a suitable position, the sheath correction jaw 105 is closed to clamp the sheath, and is located between the cable clamp 202 and the sheath positioning clamp 203, and can move towards / away from the cable clamp 202 and the sheath positioning clamp 203.
[0033] Depend on Figure 1 As shown, the moving direction of the sheath correction jaw 105 is parallel to the moving direction of the sheath positioning jaw 203, and the moving directions of the cable jaw 202, the sheath positioning jaw 203 and the sheath correction jaw 105 are located in the same plane, that is, perpendicular to the horizontal plane, the plane where the cable with the sheath inserted is located. Moving and clamping objects in one plane can provide higher accuracy. By controlling the moving positions of the cable jaw 202, the sheath positioning jaw 203 and the sheath correction jaw 105, objects can be clamped more accurately and the stability of the cable and the sheath can be maintained.
[0034] Depend on Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the sheath transfer mechanism 2 also includes a servo motor 201, a linear guide 205, a base 206, a movable slide 207 and a slide cylinder 208. The linear guide 205 is arranged parallel to the horizontal plane and fixedly connected to the base 206. The movable slide 207 is slidably connected to the linear guide 205. The slide cylinder 208 is fixed on the base 206, and the output end of the slide cylinder 208 is fixedly connected to the movable slide 207. The movable slide 207 can make a linear motion parallel to the horizontal plane along the linear guide 205, and can also make a linear motion perpendicular to the horizontal plane under the drive of the slide cylinder 208. The cable clamp 202 and the sheath positioning clamp 203 are fixedly installed on the movable slide 207. The cable clamp 202 and the sheath positioning clamp 203 can make a linear motion parallel to the horizontal plane and a linear motion perpendicular to the horizontal plane under the drive of the movable slide 207.
[0035] Depend on Figure 1 and Figure 3As shown, the center distance between the cable clamp 202 and the sheath positioning clamp 203 is relatively far. Considering that there will be deformation during transportation, a cable auxiliary clamp 204 is provided on the movable slide 207 for clamping the cable. The cable auxiliary clamp 204 is located between the cable clamp 202 and the sheath positioning clamp 203. Driven by the movable slide 207, the cable auxiliary clamp 204 can make a linear motion parallel to the horizontal plane and a linear motion perpendicular to the horizontal plane.
[0036] Depend on Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the sheath correction mechanism 1 is located below the sheath transfer mechanism 2, and the sheath correction mechanism 1 also includes a mounting base 101, a driving device 102, a lifting slide 103 and a correction cylinder 104. The base 206 of the sheath transfer mechanism 2 is fixedly mounted on the mounting base 101 of the sheath correction mechanism 1, and the lifting slide 103 is slidably mounted on the mounting base 101 and fixedly connected to the output end of the cylinder. The lifting slide 103 is controlled by the cylinder to perform linear motion in a direction perpendicular to the horizontal plane, and the driving device 102 controls the lifting slide 103 to perform linear motion in a direction parallel to the moving slide 207 of the sheath correction mechanism 1. The sheath correction clamp 105 is arranged on the lifting slide 103, and the sheath correction clamp 105 is driven by the correction cylinder 104 to close the clamp to clamp the sheath, thereby fixing the position of the transported cable.
[0037] Depend on Figures 1 to 3 As shown, when clamping the sheath, the sheath correction jaw 105 moves upward in a direction perpendicular to the horizontal plane, and the claws of the sheath correction jaw 105 are controlled by the correction cylinder 104 to close so as to clamp the sheath; when clamping the sheath and the cable, the lifting slide 103 moves downward in a direction perpendicular to the horizontal plane, so that the cable jaw 202, the sheath positioning jaw 203 and the cable auxiliary jaw 204 move downward in a direction perpendicular to the horizontal plane to the position of the sheath and the cable, the claws of the sheath positioning jaw 203 are driven by the cylinder to close so as to clamp the sheath, the claws of the cable jaw 202 are driven by the cylinder to close so as to clamp the cable, and the claws of the cable auxiliary jaw 204 are driven by the cylinder to close so as to clamp the cable.
[0038] Thus, the cable with the sheath connected is transported to the top of the sheath correction clamp 105 and the bottom of the movable slide 207 from the direction opposite to the servo motor 201, and the sheath is located at the end close to the servo motor 201, and the cable is located at the end away from the servo motor 201. After the sheath and the cable are delivered to the position, the cylinder controls the lifting slide 103 to move up vertically in the horizontal plane, thereby driving the sheath correction clamp 105 to move up, and the correction cylinder 104 controls the sheath correction clamp 105 to close and clamp the sheath, thereby fixing the position of the sheath and the cable. After that, the movable slide 207 is first controlled by the servo motor 201 to move in the horizontal plane direction to just above the sheath and the cable, and then the slide cylinder 208 controls the movable slide 207 to move downward vertically in the horizontal plane. The cylinders respectively control the cable clamp 202 and the sheath positioning clamp 203 to close at the same time, and the cable clamp 202 clamps the cable, and the sheath positioning The clamping jaw 203 clamps the head of the sheath, that is, clamps the end of the sheath close to the servo motor 201, so as to avoid interference between the sheath positioning clamping jaw 203 and the sheath correction clamping jaw 105, and then the correction cylinder 104 controls the claws of the sheath correction clamping jaw 105 to release the sheath, and the lifting slide 103 moves down perpendicular to the horizontal plane, and then the cable auxiliary clamping jaw 204 closes to clamp the cable, and after the cable clamping jaw 202, the sheath positioning clamping jaw 203 and the cable auxiliary clamping jaw 204 are all clamped, driven by the servo motor 201, the movable slide 207 moves along the linear guide rail 205 toward the direction close to the servo motor 201, and thus moves to the metal hoop crimping station for crimping of the metal hoop, and after the metal hoop crimping is completed, the movable slide 207 returns to the initial position, that is, directly above the sheath correction clamping jaw 105, to clamp the sheath and the cable, and clamps the sheath and the cable again.
[0039] When in use, the cable with the sheath connected is transported to the top of the sheath correction clamp 105 and the bottom of the movable slide 207 from the direction opposite to the servo motor 201. After the sheath and the cable are transported to the position, the sheath correction clamp 105 moves up to the position of the sheath, and the correction cylinder 104 controls the sheath correction clamp 105 to close and clamp the sheath. After clamping the sheath, the movable slide 207 first moves in the horizontal plane direction to the top of the sheath and the cable, and then moves down to the position of the sheath and the cable. After the movable slide 207 moves to the position, the cable clamp 202 and the sheath positioning clamp 203 are closed at the same time, and the cable clamp 202 clamps The cable and the sheath positioning jaws 203 clamp the head of the sheath. After the cable jaws 202 and the sheath positioning jaws 203 are closed and clamped, the sheath correction jaws 105 release the sheath, the lifting slide 103 moves down, and the cable auxiliary jaws 204 close and clamp the cable. After the cable auxiliary jaws 204 clamp the cable, the movable slide 207 moves toward the direction close to the servo motor 201, thereby moving to the metal hoop crimping station to crimp the metal hoop. After the metal hoop crimping is completed, the movable slide 207 returns to the initial position, that is, directly above the sheath correction jaws 105, to clamp the sheath and the cable, and the above steps are performed again.
