DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0019] The present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments, wherein the same components are indicated by the same reference numerals.
[0020] Reference Figures 1 to 5 As shown, a terminal insertion device of the present embodiment comprises a turntable 1 provided with a plurality of stations 2, a first loading assembly 3, a second loading assembly 4, a picking assembly 5 and an anti-slip ring 6, the plurality of stations 2 are uniformly distributed in a circle around the rotation center of the turntable 1 and are located at the edge of the turntable 1, the turntable 1 is rotatably connected to the workbench and is externally connected to a drive group, the plane where the turntable 1 is located is set to a horizontal plane, the plurality of stations 2 comprise a loading station 21, a plug-in station 22 and a unloading station 23 sequentially distributed along the rotation direction of the turntable 1, the first loading assembly 3, the second loading assembly 4 and the picking assembly 5 are respectively arranged corresponding to the loading station 21, the plug-in station 22 and the unloading station 23, an anti-slip ring 6 fixedly connected to the workbench is arranged on the outer cover of the turntable 1, three inlet and outlet holes 61 corresponding to the loading station 21, the plug-in station 22 and the unloading station 23 are opened on the ring wall of the anti-slip ring 6, and the space heights of the plurality of stations 2 for accommodating plastic sleeves are all lower than the height of the plastic sleeves;
[0021] The first feeding assembly 3 includes a first vibration plate 31, a first material channel 32 and a first oscillator. The two ends of the first material channel 32 are connected to the first vibration plate 31 and the feeding station 21 respectively. The first oscillator is positioned below the first material channel 32.
[0022] The second feeding assembly 4 includes a second vibration plate 41, a second material channel 42, a straight vibrator 43, a material distribution channel 44, a material distribution cylinder 45 and a material pushing cylinder 46. One end of the material distribution channel 44 is connected to the plug-in station 22 and the length direction of the material distribution channel 44 is perpendicular to the moving direction of the terminal entering the plug-in station 22. The two ends of the second material channel 42 are respectively connected to the second vibration plate 41 and the end of the material distribution channel 44 away from the plug-in station 22. The straight vibrator 43 is positioned below the second material channel 42. The material distribution cylinder 45 and the material pushing cylinder 46 They are respectively positioned on both sides of the second material channel 42. The moving direction of the output shaft of the material distribution cylinder 45 is the same as the length direction of the material distribution channel 44. The moving direction of the output shaft of the material pushing cylinder 46 is perpendicular to the length direction of the material distribution channel 44. According to the actual installation space, the way in which the material pushing cylinder 46 pushes the terminal can be to directly push the terminal to move, or to connect a transverse connecting plate to the output shaft of the material pushing cylinder 46 and connect a push rod parallel to the output shaft of the material pushing cylinder 46 and used to push the terminal. The material taking component 5 can use a manipulator;
[0023] In the actual processing process, the first vibration plate 31 transports the plastic sleeve to the first material channel 32. Under the action of the first straight vibrator, the plastic sleeve moves along the length direction of the first material channel 32 and passes through the inlet and outlet hole 61 to enter the loading station 21. The plastic sleeve adjacent to the plastic sleeve entering the loading station 21 just moves to the gap between the anti-slip ring 6 and the turntable 1 and stops moving. Then the turntable 1 rotates, and the plastic sleeve moves from the loading station 21 to the plug-in station 22. The terminal enters the second material channel 42 from the second vibration plate 41. Under the action of the straight vibrator 43, the terminal moves to the connection between the distribution channel 44 and the second material channel 42, and then the material is distributed. The output shaft of the cylinder 45 moves along the material distribution channel 44 and pushes the terminal to the junction of the material distribution channel 44 and the plug-in station 22, and then the push cylinder 46 starts and pushes the terminal into the plug-in station 22 so that one end of the plastic sleeve is inserted into the plastic sleeve, and then the push cylinder 46 and the material distribution cylinder 45 are reset successively, the turntable 1 rotates, and the plastic sleeve with the terminal moves to the unloading station 23, and finally the manipulator clamps the end of the plastic sleeve that is higher than the upper surface of the turntable 1 and moves the plastic sleeve out of the turntable 1. As the manipulator releases the plastic sleeve, the plastic sleeve with the terminal is collected, and the above operations are repeated to assemble and collect the plastic sleeves and terminals one by one;
[0024] Compared with the existing manual assembly method, this design achieves high automation, effectively improves assembly efficiency and reduces labor costs; the anti-slip ring 6 is designed to prevent the plastic sleeve from easily detaching from the turntable 1 under the centrifugal force of the turntable 1.
[0025] As a specific implementation method of the improvement, refer to Figure 2As shown, the workbench includes a platform for supporting the first vibration plate 31, the second vibration plate 41 and the straight vibrator 42, and an assembly plate surface positioned above the platform and inclined relative to the platform, the turntable 1 is rotatably connected to the assembly plate surface, and the degree of inclination of the turntable 1 is the same as the degree of inclination of the assembly plate surface, the second material channel 42, the material distribution channel 44, the material distribution cylinder 45, the material pushing cylinder 46, the material taking component 5 and the anti-slip ring 6 are all positioned on the assembly plate surface and are inclined with the inclination of the assembly plate surface, the loading station 21 and the unloading station 23 are both located in the inclined direction of the turntable 1, and the height of the unloading station 23 is lower than the height of the loading station 21. The first straight vibrator in the previous embodiment is omitted and the first material channel 32 is tilted. The plug-in station 22 is located on a straight line perpendicular to the tilt direction of the turntable 1. During the assembly process, the first vibration plate 31 transports the plastic sleeve to the first material channel 32. Under the action of gravity, the plastic sleeve slides down along the first material channel 32 and quickly enters the loading station 21. Compared with the design of the previous embodiment in which the plastic sleeve is slowly transported to the loading station 21 by the first straight vibrator, such a design can further increase the loading speed, thereby improving the assembly efficiency; at the same time, the first straight vibrator can be optimized, the complexity of the equipment can be reduced, and the cost of the equipment can be reduced.
[0026] As a specific implementation of the improvement, since the plastic sleeve is easily bumped or rubbed when sliding down the first material channel 32 quickly, it may flip over or jump out of the first material channel 32. In order to solve the above-mentioned problem, refer to Figure 2 As shown, the first loading assembly 3 also includes a first stop bar 33 positioned above the first material channel 32 . Such a design can limit the plastic sleeve in the first material channel 32 to prevent the plastic sleeve from escaping from the first material channel 32 .
[0027] As a specific implementation of the improvement, in the second embodiment, the second material channel 42 is inclined along with the assembly board surface. Under the action of the straight vibrator 43, there is a drop in the height direction of the second material channel 42, and it is even easy for the terminal to fall out of the second material channel 42. To solve the above problem, refer to Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, a second baffle 47 located above the terminal is provided on the second material channel 42. Such a design can limit the terminal within the second material channel 42 to prevent the terminal from escaping from the second material channel 42, while ensuring that there is no drop in the height direction of the second material channel 42 for the subsequent accurate insertion of the terminal into the plastic sleeve.
[0028] As a specific implementation of the improvement, after the output shaft of the material distribution cylinder 45 directly pushes the terminal to move, when the material distribution cylinder 45 stops operating, the terminal is likely to move forward a distance or flip and fall down under the action of inertia. To solve the above problem, refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, a push bar 48 for pushing the terminal to move and an L-shaped flip member 49 which is rotatably connected to the push bar 48 at one end are provided on the output shaft of the dividing cylinder 45. A material trough 40 for accommodating the terminal is provided on the end surface of the push bar 48 away from the dividing cylinder 45. The part of the flip member 49 which is rotatably connected to the push bar 48 is located above the push bar 48 and the other part is covered outside the material trough 40. The output shaft of the pushing cylinder 46 or the external push rod can penetrate the material trough 40. Such a design can make up for the defect that the terminal is flipped or moved forward due to the direct pushing of the dividing cylinder 45, thereby ensuring that the subsequent terminal can be pushed into the plug-in station 22. The design that the flip member 49 can flip relative to the push bar 48 can enable the terminal in question to be directly taken out by flipping the flip member 49 outward to expose the terminal at the material trough 40 when the terminal is deformed and cannot be pushed into the plug-in station 22, thereby facilitating maintenance operations.
[0029] As a specific implementation method of the improvement, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the material picking component 5 includes a material picking cylinder 51 positioned on one side of the turntable 1 and a push plate 52 positioned on the output shaft of the material picking cylinder 51, the push plate 52 is perpendicular to the upper surface of the turntable 1 and one end of the push plate 52 is adjacent to the upper surface of the turntable 1, and a collection box can be placed outside the unloading station 23. In the initial state, the diameter of the circumference of the push plate 52 coaxial with the turntable 1 is smaller than the diameter of the circumference of multiple stations 2. In the process of the material picking cylinder 51 driving the push plate 52 to move to the outside of the turntable 1, the push plate 52 contacts the end of the plastic sleeve that is higher than the upper surface of the turntable 1, and then the push plate 52 pushes the plastic sleeve to make the plastic sleeve detach from the unloading station 23, and the plastic sleeve equipped with the terminal falls into the collection box. Compared with the design of using a robot to grab the plastic sleeve, such a design can simplify the structure of the material picking component 5 and reduce the cost of the equipment.
[0030] As a specific implementation method of the improvement, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the material picking component 5 also includes a monitor 53 for monitoring whether the plastic sleeve is separated from the unloading station 23. The monitor 53 can be a visual detector or a photoelectric gate, etc. The circumferential diameter of the monitor 53 is larger than the diameter of the turntable 1. When the push plate 52 pushes the plastic sleeve away from the unloading station 23, the plastic sleeve will pass under the monitor 53 and be monitored by the monitor 53. If the monitor 53 adopts a visual detector, it can be observed whether the plastic sleeve is equipped with a terminal. If the monitor 53 adopts a photoelectric gate, the photoelectric gate will feedback information to the controller after detecting that a plastic sleeve has passed, and the controller will send a rotation command to the turntable 1. This design can ensure that the turntable 1 will not rotate until the plastic sleeve is completely separated from the unloading station 23, so that the subsequent plastic sleeve can be smoothly loaded into the station 2.
[0031] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. The protection scope of the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. All technical solutions under the concept of the present invention belong to the protection scope of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, some improvements and modifications without departing from the principle of the present invention should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
