[0028] like Figure 1-3 As shown, an elastic pin assembly tool includes a positioning component 1, a first feeding component 2, a second feeding component 3 and an insertion component 4, wherein the positioning component 1 is used for positioning the product, the first feeding component 2 is used for conveying the product to the positioning component 1, the second feeding component 3 is used for conveying the elastic pin to the positioning component 1, and the insertion component 4 is used for inserting the elastic pin into the mounting hole of the product.
[0029] Specifically, the positioning assembly 1 includes a positioning seat 11 and a positioning rod 12. The positioning seat 11 is provided with a positioning hole and a discharge area 112. The discharge area 112 is connected to the positioning hole through the insertion hole 111. The positioning rod 12 is movably located on a side of the positioning hole opposite to the insertion hole 111, that is, the positioning rod 12 is arranged opposite to the insertion hole 111. The first feeding assembly 2 is used to convey the product into the positioning hole, and the second feeding assembly 3 is used to convey the elastic pin into the discharge area 112. When the product is located in the positioning hole, the positioning rod One end of 12 can be extended into the mounting hole of the product to keep the mounting hole of the product connected with the insertion hole 111, that is, to achieve the positioning of the product and prevent it from rotating. After positioning, the insertion component 4 can drive the elastic pin located in the discharge area 112 to be inserted into the mounting hole of the product along the insertion hole 111, and separate the positioning rod 12 from the product. When the elastic pin is inserted into the mounting hole from the other end of the mounting hole, the positioning rod 12 will be gradually squeezed out to complete the entire assembly. It has a high degree of automation, high assembly efficiency, and saves labor costs.
[0030] Specifically, the first feeding assembly 2 includes a first vibration plate 21, a first feeding channel 22, a guide tube 23 and a first pushing rod 24. One end of the guide tube 23 abuts against one side of the positioning seat 11, and a guide hole connected to the positioning hole is provided in the guide tube 23. The first feeding channel 22 is used to connect the first vibration plate 21 and the guide tube 23. The first pushing rod 24 is movably arranged in the guide hole and is used to drive the product located in the guide hole into the positioning hole. When the first vibration plate 21 is working, its vibration transports the product to the first feeding channel 22, and the product is transported to the guide hole of the guide tube 23 through the first feeding, and then the product in the guide hole is driven into the positioning hole by the first pushing rod 24.
[0031] Furthermore, the first feeding channel 22 includes a first transverse channel 221, a second transverse channel 222 and a longitudinal channel 223. The first transverse channel 221 is obliquely arranged on one side of the first vibration plate 21, the second transverse channel 222 is obliquely arranged below the first transverse channel 221, and one end of the second transverse channel 222 is located directly below one end of the first transverse channel 221. The longitudinal channel 223 is obliquely arranged on one side of the second transverse channel 222 and is used to connect the second transverse channel 222 with the guide tube 23. The product coming out of the first vibration plate 21 enters the first transverse channel 221. Due to the inclined arrangement, the product can move along the first transverse channel 221 into the second transverse channel 222, and continue to move in the second transverse channel 222. When it moves to a certain position, the product enters the longitudinal channel 223 and moves along the longitudinal channel 223 to the guide hole of the guide tube 23.
[0032] In order to realize the displacement of the product from the second transverse material channel 222 to the longitudinal material channel 223, a first pushing cylinder 25 is provided on one side of the second transverse material channel 222.

When the product moves to the preset position of the second transverse material channel 222, the first pushing cylinder 25 drives the first pushing block 251 to move, drives the product to the longitudinal material channel 223, and continues to move due to the action of gravity.
[0033] In order to facilitate the product to enter the guide hole of the guide tube 23, a first notch 231 is provided on the guide tube 23 for exposing the guide hole, the bottom end of the longitudinal material channel 223 is located on one side of the first notch 231, and a baffle 223a is provided on the outer side of the bottom end of the longitudinal material channel 223, the baffle 223a and the bottom end of the longitudinal material channel 223 are surrounded to form a guide groove, and the guide groove is located directly above the first notch 231. When the product moves to the bottom end of the longitudinal material channel 223, it will be restricted by the baffle 223a, so that it can only move in the guide groove and fall into the first notch 231, thereby entering the guide hole, and a second pushing cylinder 26 is provided at the end of the guide tube 23 away from the positioning seat 11, and the first pushing rod 24 is connected to the piston rod of the second pushing cylinder 26, and the second pushing rod is automatically moved by the second pushing cylinder 26, so as to facilitate pushing the product into the guide hole.
[0034] In order to align the installation hole of the product with the insertion hole 111 and the positioning rod 12, the positioning assembly 1 also includes a rotating motor 13 and a rotating gear 14. The two rotating gears 14 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the guide tube 23. A synchronous belt 16 is provided between the two rotating gears 14. The synchronous belt 16 can pass through the guide tube 23 and connect with the product. The rotating motor 13 can drive the synchronous belt 16 to rotate through the two rotating gears 14, and the synchronous belt 6 drives the product to rotate so that the installation hole of the product corresponds to the positioning rod 12. That is, the rotating motor 13 can drive the product to rotate to adjust the direction of the product installation hole so that one end of the product corresponds to the positioning rod 12, and then the positioning rod 12 is inserted for positioning.
[0035] In order to realize the movement of the positioning rod 12 , the positioning assembly 1 further includes a positioning cylinder 15 . The positioning cylinder 15 is fixed on the positioning seat 11 , and the positioning rod 12 is connected to the positioning cylinder 15 .
[0036] Specifically, the second feeding assembly 3 includes a second vibration disk 31, a second feeding channel 32 and a third pushing cylinder 33.

The third pushing cylinder 33 is fixed on the positioning seat 11, and is used to push the elastic pin located in the discharge area 112. That is, the second vibration disk 31 is used to place the elastic pin, and it is transported to the positioning seat 11 through the second feeding channel 32, and then the elastic pin is pushed into the discharge area 112 through the third pushing cylinder 33. The plug-in assembly 4 includes a plug-in cylinder 41 and a ejector pin. The plug-in cylinder 41 is fixed on the positioning seat 11, and the ejector pin is connected to the plug-in cylinder 41 and is used to drive the elastic pin located in the discharge area 112 to be inserted into the mounting hole of the product.
