Specifically, first, the moving mechanism 5 drives the material receiving seat 4 to move upward to the exit position, at which time the material receiving channel 11 is aligned with the feeding mechanism 6, and the feeding mechanism 6 receives the C-shaped retaining spring 1 and transports the C-shaped retaining spring 1 to the material receiving channel 11, and then the moving mechanism 5 drives the material receiving seat 4 to move downward to the insertion position, at which time the material receiving seat 4 extends into the inner side of the wind wheel 9 and the material receiving channel 11 is aligned with the annular groove 10 on the motor shaft 2, and then the pushing drive mechanism 8 drives the pushing piece 7 to move toward the motor shaft 2, so that the pushing piece 7 pushes the C-shaped retaining spring 1 in the material receiving channel 11 into the annular groove 10 on the motor shaft 2, and then the wind wheel 9 is clamped on the motor shaft 2 through the C-shaped retaining spring 1. The C-shaped retaining spring installation device of the embodiment of the present application enables the material receiving seat 4 to extend into the wind wheel 9 and can install the C-shaped retaining spring 1 on the motor shaft 2, thereby improving the installation efficiency of the C-shaped retaining spring 1, saving labor costs, and eliminating the need for workers to install manually. Figure 1 The receiving seat 4 is located at the extending position. Figure 2 The material receiving seat 4 is located at the exit position.
[0062] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the moving mechanism 5 may include:
[0063] A movable seat 12, wherein the movable seat 12 is slidably connected to the base 3, and the material receiving seat 4 is connected to the movable seat 12;
[0064] A moving cylinder 13, wherein the moving cylinder 13 is connected to the base 3, and the moving cylinder 13 is also connected to the moving seat 12 and is used to drive the moving seat 12 to move, thereby driving the material receiving seat 4 to move between the extended position and the withdrawn position; in this embodiment, the moving seat 12 is slidably connected to the base 3 in the vertical direction, and when the moving cylinder 13 drives the moving seat 12 to move upward into position, it can drive the material receiving seat 4 to move upward to the withdrawn position, at which time the material receiving seat 4 withdraws from the wind wheel 9 and the material receiving channel 11 is aligned with the feeding mechanism 6, so that the C-shaped retaining ring 1 can be fed into the material receiving channel 11 through the feeding mechanism 6; when the moving cylinder 13 drives the moving seat 12 to move downward into position, it can drive the material receiving seat 4 to move downward to the extended position, at which time the material receiving seat 4 extends into the wind wheel 9 and the material receiving channel 11 is aligned with the annular groove 10 on the motor shaft 2.
[0065] In this embodiment, an upper limit component and a lower limit component are connected to the base 3. When the movable seat 12 moves upward to abut against the upper limit component, the material receiving seat 4 moves to the exit position. When the movable seat 12 moves downward to abut against the lower limit component, the material receiving seat 4 moves to the inserted position.
[0066] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the push drive mechanism 8 may include a push cylinder 14, a push slide rod 15 and a transmission pin 16;
[0067] The push slide rod 15 is connected to the push cylinder 14, and a transmission inclined slot 17 adapted to the transmission pin 16 is provided on the push slide rod 15;
[0068] The transmission pin 16 is connected to the push piece 7, and the transmission pin 16 is installed in the transmission chute 17;
[0069] The pushing cylinder 14 is connected to at least one of the moving seat 12 and the material receiving seat 4, and is used to drive the pushing slide rod 15 to move and then drive the pushing piece 7 to move in the material receiving channel 11 through the cooperation of the transmission inclined slot 17 and the transmission pin 16.
[0070] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the push cylinder 14 is connected to the moving seat 12, and the push slide rod 15 is vertically slidably disposed in the receiving seat 4. Figure 5 , 6 As shown, when the moving seat 12 moves downward to its position, the receiving seat 4 moves to the extended position, and the receiving channel 11 is aligned with the annular groove 10 on the motor shaft 2. At this time, the pushing cylinder 14 drives the pushing slide 15 to move downward and then drives the transmission pin 16 and the pushing piece 7 to move toward the motor shaft 2 through the transmission chute 17, thereby pushing the C-shaped retaining ring 1 in the receiving channel 11 into the annular groove 10 on the motor shaft 2. Then the pushing cylinder 14 drives the pushing slide 15 to move upward and then drives the transmission pin 16 and the pushing piece 7 to reset through the transmission chute 17, and then the moving cylinder 13 drives the moving seat 12 to move upward and then drives the receiving seat 4 to move upward to the exit position.
[0071] like Figures 1 to 4 , 7 to 12, the feeding mechanism 6 is connected to the base 3, and the feeding mechanism 6 is, for example but not limited to, the following structure, which includes an upper feeding plate 18, a lower feeding plate 19, a driving rod 20, an elastic member 21 and a telescopic member 22;
[0072] The upper feeding plate 18 is stacked on the lower feeding plate 19, and the upper feeding plate 18 and the lower feeding plate 19 are both slidably arranged on the base 3;
[0073] The front end of the lower feeding plate 19 has a supporting portion 23 for receiving the C-shaped retaining ring 1 and exposed to the upper feeding plate 18;
[0074] The driving rod 20 is connected to the upper feeding plate 18, and the driving rod 20 is also connected to the lower feeding plate 19 in a sliding manner along the front-rear direction;
[0075] The elastic member 21 is connected to the driving rod 20, and the elastic member 21 abuts against the lower feeding plate 19 and is used to push the lower feeding plate 19 forward so that the lower feeding plate 19 is kept in a forward position relative to the driving rod 20;
[0076] The telescopic component 22 is connected to the driving rod 20, and the telescopic component 22 is used to drive the driving rod 20 to move forward and then drive the upper feeding plate 18 and the lower feeding plate 19 to move forward. When the receiving seat 4 moves to the exit position and the telescopic component 22 drives the lower feeding plate 19 to move forward to the limit position, the supporting portion 23 at the front end of the lower feeding plate 19 is connected with the receiving channel 11. The telescopic component 22 is also used to continue to drive the driving rod 20 forward and drive the upper feeding plate 18 to continue to move forward when the lower feeding plate 19 moves forward to the limit position so as to push the C-shaped retaining ring 1 on the supporting portion 23 into the receiving channel 11. Specifically, when the receiving seat 4 is located at the exit position, the receiving channel 11 is aligned with the feeding mechanism 6, such as Figure 8 As shown, in the initial state, the elastic member 21 pushes the lower feed plate 19 forward to keep the lower feed plate 19 in the forward position relative to the driving rod 20. At this time, the supporting portion 23 of the front end of the lower feed plate 19 is exposed from the upper feed plate 18. The C-shaped clip 1 is conveyed to the supporting portion 23, and then the telescopic member 22 drives the driving rod 20 to move forward, thereby driving the upper feed plate 18 and the lower feed plate 19 to move forward. Fig.10 As shown, when the lower feeding plate 19 moves forward to the limit position, the supporting portion 23 at the front end of the lower feeding plate 19 is connected with the receiving channel 11, and then Fig.11As shown, the telescopic component 22 continues to drive the driving rod 20 forward and drives the upper feeding plate 18 to continue to move forward to push the C-shaped clip 1 on the supporting portion 23 into the material receiving channel 11. In the process of the upper feeding plate 18 continuing to move forward, the lower feeding plate 19 remains stationary and the elastic member 21 is compressed. When the C-shaped clip 1 is successfully fed into the material receiving channel 11, the telescopic component 22 drives the driving rod 20 to move backward and drives the upper feeding plate 18 and the lower feeding plate 19 to move backward and reset; in this embodiment, the telescopic component 22 is connected to the base 3, and the elastic member 21 is a spring.
[0077] like Figures 7 to 12 As shown, the upper feeding plate 18 is provided with a connecting portion 24, and an opening groove 25 is provided in the connecting portion 24. The front end portion of the driving rod 20 is provided with a front step portion 26 and a rear step portion 27, and a clamping shaft portion 28 located between the front step portion 26 and the rear step portion 27. The clamping shaft portion 28 is clamped in the opening groove 25, and the front step portion 26 abuts against the front end surface of the connecting portion 24, and the rear step portion 27 abuts against the rear end surface of the connecting portion 24, thereby connecting the driving rod 20 to the upper feeding plate 18;
[0078] The lower feeding plate 19 is provided with a sliding portion 29, and the sliding portion 29 is slidably connected with the driving rod 20 along the front-rear direction, and the sliding portion 29 is located behind the rear step portion 27;
[0079] The rear end of the driving rod 20 is connected to the telescopic component 22, and the driving rod 20 is connected to a locking nut 30 that is pressed against the telescopic component 22;
[0080] The elastic member 21 is sleeved on the driving rod 20, the front end of the elastic member 21 abuts against the sliding portion 29 on the lower feed plate 19, and the rear end of the elastic member 21 abuts against the locking nut 30. The elastic member 21 is used to push forward against the sliding portion 29 on the lower feed plate 19 so that the sliding portion 29 abuts against the rear step portion 27, thereby keeping the lower feed plate 19 in the forward position relative to the driving rod 20. Specifically, in the process of the telescopic component 22 driving the driving rod 20 to move forward, the upper feed plate 18 and the lower feed plate 19 move forward together at first, and when the lower feed plate 19 moves forward to the position as shown in FIG. Fig.10After reaching the limit position shown, the lower feeding plate 19 will no longer move and the supporting portion 23 at the front end of the lower feeding plate 19 will be connected with the receiving channel 11, while the driving rod 20 and the upper feeding plate 18 will continue to move forward, at which time the elastic member 21 will be compressed, and the C-shaped retaining ring 1 on the supporting portion 23 will be pushed into the receiving channel 11 by the upper feeding plate 18. In this embodiment, the telescopic component 22 is a feeding cylinder, and the driving rod 20 is connected to the piston rod of the feeding cylinder.
[0081] Specifically, when the lower feeding plate 19 moves forward to the limit position, the supporting portion 23 at the front end of the lower feeding plate 19 will abut against the material receiving seat 4, so the lower feeding plate 19 cannot continue to move forward.
[0082] like Figure 7 , 8 As shown, the C-shaped clip spring installation device may further include a guide mechanism, and the guide mechanism may be, for example but not limited to, the following structure, which includes a guide rod 31 and a guide cylinder 32;
[0083] The base 3 is provided with a feeding trough 33, and the upper feeding plate 18 and the lower feeding plate 19 are both slidably arranged in the feeding trough 33 along the front-back direction and have a material receiving position;
[0084] The base 3 is provided with a material-incoming opening 34 connected to the material-feeding slot 33. When the upper material-feeding plate 18 and the lower material-feeding plate 19 are located at the material-receiving position, the material-supporting portion 23 is aligned with the material-incoming opening 34 so that the C-shaped retaining ring 1 is fed from the material-incoming opening 34 to the material-supporting portion 23.
[0085] The guide rod 31 is slidably disposed in the base 3;
[0086] The guide cylinder 32 is connected to the base 3 and connected to the guide rod 31, and the guide cylinder 32 is used to drive the guide rod 31 to move into the feeding trough 33 and to drive the guide rod 31 to move out of the feeding trough 33;
[0087] When the guide rod 31 extends into the feed trough 33, a guide channel 35 is formed between the guide rod 31 and the front end of the upper feed plate 18. The guide channel 35 is located above the support portion 23 and is used to guide the C-shaped retaining spring 1 to move to the support portion 23 to prevent the angle of the C-shaped retaining spring 1 from deflecting. Specifically, the C-shaped retaining spring 1 is transported from the material input opening 34 to the support portion 23 through the vibration plate, wherein the width of the guide channel 35 between the guide rod 31 and the upper feed plate 18 is smaller than the outer diameter of the C-shaped retaining spring 1, and combined with the shape of the C-shaped retaining spring 1, the C-shaped retaining spring 1 can only be kept as follows: Figure 7 , 8The angle shown is conveyed to the support portion 23, and the angle of the C-shaped clamp spring 1 cannot be deflected.
[0088] like Fig.12 As shown, a left snap-in slot 36 is provided on the left side of the bottom of the feed trough 33, and a right snap-in slot 37 is provided on the right side of the bottom of the feed trough 33. The left side of the upper feed plate 18 and the left side of the lower feed plate 19 are both slidably engaged in the left snap-in slot 36, and the right side of the upper feed plate 18 and the right side of the lower feed plate 19 are both slidably engaged in the right snap-in slot 37. Specifically, during the feeding process, the left and right sides of the C-shaped retaining spring 1 are also slidably engaged in the left snap-in slot 36 and the right snap-in slot 37, respectively.
[0089] like Figure 5 , 6 As shown, the material receiving seat 4 is provided with a detection hole 38 connected to the material receiving channel 11, and the material receiving seat 4 is connected with a first sensor, which is aligned with the detection hole 38 and is used to detect whether there is a C-shaped retaining spring 1 in the material receiving channel 11;
[0090] The base 3 is connected to a second sensor for detecting whether there is a C-shaped retaining ring 1 on the supporting portion 23 .
[0091] like Figure 2 , 6 As shown, the C-shaped retaining ring installation device further includes a detection mechanism for detecting the displacement of the pushing piece 7 when the pushing piece 7 pushes the C-shaped retaining ring 1 in the receiving channel 11 into the annular groove 10 on the motor shaft 2, and the detection mechanism includes a sensing piece 39 and a displacement sensor 40;
[0092] The sensing piece 39 is connected to the pushing piece 7, and the displacement sensor 40 is connected to the base 3. The displacement sensor 40 is aligned with the sensing piece 39 and is used to detect the movement displacement of the sensing piece 39, thereby indirectly measuring the displacement of the pushing piece 7; specifically, in the process of the pushing piece 7 pushing the C-shaped retaining ring 1 in the material receiving channel 11 into the annular groove 10 on the motor shaft 2, if the displacement measured by the displacement sensor 40 is equal to the set value, it means that the C-shaped retaining ring 1 is correctly installed in place; if the displacement measured by the displacement sensor 40 is less than the set value, it means that the C-shaped retaining ring 1 is not fully installed in place; if the displacement measured by the displacement sensor 40 is greater than the set value, it means that there is no C-shaped retaining ring 1 in the material receiving channel 11, that is, there is a lack of material in the material receiving channel 11, and the C-shaped retaining ring 1 is not installed on the motor shaft 2.

[0094] To summarize, first, the moving mechanism 5 drives the material receiving seat 4 to move upward to the exit position, at which time the material receiving channel 11 is aligned with the feeding mechanism 6, and the feeding mechanism 6 receives the C-shaped retaining spring 1 and transports the C-shaped retaining spring 1 to the material receiving channel 11, and then the moving mechanism 5 drives the material receiving seat 4 to move downward to the insertion position, at which time the material receiving seat 4 extends into the inner side of the wind wheel 9 and the material receiving channel 11 is aligned with the annular groove 10 on the motor shaft 2, and then the pushing drive mechanism 8 drives the pushing piece 7 to move toward the motor shaft 2, so that the pushing piece 7 pushes the C-shaped retaining spring 1 in the material receiving channel 11 into the annular groove 10 on the motor shaft 2, and then the wind wheel 9 is clamped on the motor shaft 2 through the C-shaped retaining spring 1. The C-shaped retaining spring installation device of the embodiment of the present application enables the material receiving seat 4 to extend into the wind wheel 9 and can install the C-shaped retaining spring 1 on the motor shaft 2, thereby improving the installation efficiency of the C-shaped retaining spring 1, saving labor costs, and eliminating the need for workers to manually install it.
