In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0023] See also Figures 1 to 5 , which is a schematic diagram of a preferred embodiment of the utility model. The utility model is related to a gear seat assembly machine, which includes: a machine base 1, a turntable 2, an oil injection mechanism 3, a screw locking mechanism 4, a first manipulator 5 and a second manipulator 6.

[0024] The turntable 2 is assembled on the machine base 1 and can rotate intermittently according to work needs. A plurality of jigs and fixtures 21 are arranged on the turntable 2 at intervals according to the direction of rotation. The jigs and fixtures 21 rotate with the turntable 2 and pass through at least the first loading station, oiling station, second loading station, locking station and finished product discharging station preset on the machine base 1. The turntable 2 works intermittently, and can complete the assembly line operation in a small space, which is convenient for control. The jig and fixture 21 of this embodiment is in the form of a base, which is fixed on the turntable 2 at a set position. The jig and fixture 21 is provided with a receiving groove 211 with an opening facing upward. The receiving groove 211 is adapted to the bottom cover of the gear seat for directional placement and stable seating, which is convenient for placing the bottom cover, improving work efficiency, and also obtaining better directionality and position, which is beneficial to subsequent assembly work. The bottom cover and gear of the gear seat are placed on the jig 21 at the first loading station, and the upper cover of the gear seat is placed on the jig 21 at the second loading station and aligned with the bottom cover. In this embodiment, the first loading station faces the operator, and the bottom cover and gear of the gear seat are manually placed on the jig 21, which is convenient for the operator to manually load while operating the equipment. The second loading station is provided with a first manipulator 5, which grabs the upper cover from the feeder 9 and covers it on the bottom cover. The machine replaces manual labor, which can reduce labor. Figure 2 , 4 As shown, the feeder 9 provides orderly arranged upper covers, which facilitates the first manipulator 5 to accurately grasp and feed the assembly.

[0025] The oil injection mechanism 3 is installed on the oil injection station of the machine base 1, and is used to quantitatively inject lubricating oil into the gears of the gear seat mounted on the tooling fixture 21 and drive the gears in the gear seat to rotate during the process of injecting lubricating oil. Furthermore, the oiling mechanism 3 includes an oiler 31 and a driver 32; the oiler 31 has an oiling body 311 and an oiling needle 312 extending from the oiling body 311 and being relatively retractable, the oiling body 311 being fixed on the machine base 1 and allowing the oiling needle 312 to extend from top to bottom toward the gear seat on the tooling fixture 21; the driver 32 includes a cylinder 321, a mounting block 322 assembled on the telescopic end of the cylinder 321, and a driving roller 323 arranged on the mounting block 322, the driving roller 323 being driven by a motor 324, and the motor 324 being mounted on the mounting block 322; the telescopic end of the cylinder 321 drives the mounting block 322 to extend, so that the driving roller 323 extends toward the gear seat on the tooling fixture 21 and contacts and links with the corresponding gear in the gear seat, so that the driving roller 323 drives the gear to rotate. Figure 5 As described, during operation, the jig 21 carries the bottom cover and the gear to the oiling station, and the oiling needle 312 extends from top to bottom toward the jig 21, close to the gear of the gear seat, and then injects lubricating oil; at the same time, the cylinder 321 drives the mounting block 322 to extend, so that the driving roller 323 extends to the gear seat on the jig 21 and contacts the corresponding gear in the gear seat, and then the driving roller 323 is driven to rotate by the motor 324, thereby driving the gear in the gear seat to rotate, so as to achieve oiling and rotation at the same time, and the oiling is balanced and effective. After the oiling is completed, the oiling needle 312 and the driving roller 323 return to their positions accordingly, so that the jig 21 carries the bottom cover and the gear to move to the next station. Repeat this process to achieve automated oiling.

[0026] In this embodiment, a visual inspection component 7 is also arranged upstream of the oil injection mechanism 3. The visual inspection component 7 is used to detect whether the bottom cover and the gear are missing after assembly. For example, corresponding gaskets and sleeves are also required when assembling the gear. At this time, the existing industrial visual technology can be used for online inspection to timely detect whether there is a lack of material. Visual automatic inspection replaces the naked eye, improves work efficiency, and reduces labor. The visual inspection component 7 of this embodiment includes a CCD camera 71 and a light source 72 mounted above the turntable 2, which vertically captures the image of the product being tested and transmits it to the computer for processing and analysis to achieve visual automatic inspection.

[0027] The screw locking mechanism 4 is installed on the locking station of the machine base 1, and is used to lock the upper cover and the bottom cover of the gear seat together, so that the gear seat is assembled into a whole. The screw locking mechanism 4 is a prior art, which can automatically provide screws and drive the screws to be screwed in and locked, thereby achieving automatic screw locking work.

The second manipulator 6 and the first manipulator 5 are existing, and realize the loading and unloading work of in and out movement. In this embodiment, the gear seat assembly machine also includes a material receiving mechanism 8, and the material receiving mechanism 8 is connected to the second manipulator 6, and the assembled gear seat is arranged and collected through the cooperation of the second manipulator 6 and the material receiving mechanism 8. The material receiving mechanism 8 provides a corresponding material tray and effectively controls the movement of the material tray, which is beneficial for the second manipulator 6 to grab the material and place it, and the material tray can be automatically transferred to replace the empty material tray after it is full, and this is repeated to realize the replacement of manual work by machinery and reduce manual labor. The material receiving mechanism 8 draws on the existing technology to cooperate with the spatial layout design of the assembly machine, which is beneficial to the material receiving work.

[0029] The utility model rotates through the gap of the turntable and drives the tooling fixture to pass through the first loading station, the oiling station, the second loading station, the locking station and the finished product discharging station in sequence, and is equipped with an oiling mechanism, a screw locking mechanism, a first manipulator and a second manipulator, so that when the gear seat is assembled, lubricating oil can be automatically injected, the upper cover is covered, the bottom cover and the upper cover are screwed together, and finally the material is automatically discharged, so that machinery replaces manual work, improves production efficiency, reduces personnel costs, and meets the needs of modern automated production.

[0030] Although the preferred specific embodiments of the present invention are described above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, the present invention should not be limited to the structures and operations that are exactly the same as the above description and the accompanying drawings.
