Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of shock absorber production equipment, and in particular to an automatic feeding device for a shock absorber dust ring. Background Art
[0002] Shock absorbers are devices used to suppress vibrations and play an important role in the vehicle suspension system. The main function of shock absorbers is to quickly attenuate vehicle body vibrations and improve the ride quality and comfort of the vehicle. During vehicle driving, shock absorbers help control the contact between the wheels and the ground, reduce the impact caused by uneven road surfaces, and maintain good contact between the tires and the ground, thereby enhancing the vehicle's handling stability.
[0003] The dust ring of the shock absorber is mainly used to prevent dust and other tiny particles from entering the inside of the shock absorber, thereby protecting the lubricating oil inside the shock absorber from being contaminated and maintaining the normal working condition of the shock absorber. During the installation process of the dust rings of the existing shock absorbers, the dust rings are piled up at the loading position in a disorderly and disorderly manner, and a robotic arm is needed to take a dust ring and put it on the shock absorber body. The robotic arm may grab multiple dust rings at the same time when grabbing the dust rings from the dust ring pile. In order to reduce the probability of errors when the robotic arm grabs the dust rings, it is necessary to manually place the dust rings at the loading position one by one before the next assembly operation can be carried out. The speed of manually placing the dust rings one by one is slow and the time required for placing the dust rings each time is uncertain, resulting in a low production rate of the shock absorber. In addition, during the installation process of the dust rings of the existing shock absorbers, it is difficult to keep the dust rings stable when they are stacked together. Only a small amount of dust rings can be stacked at the loading position each time, and manual work is required to frequently stack the dust rings at the loading position. The operation of manually stacking the dust rings at the loading position also takes a long time, affecting the production rate of the shock absorber. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of the present application is to provide an automatic feeding device for the dust ring of a shock absorber in order to solve the above-mentioned problems, so as to improve the production efficiency of the shock absorber and improve the above-mentioned problems.
[0005] This application is achieved through the following technical solutions:
[0006] In some embodiments, the present application provides an automatic feeding device for shock absorber dust rings, which is used to install dust rings to the shock absorber body, and the automatic feeding device for shock absorber dust rings includes a discharge mechanism and a feeding mechanism; the discharge mechanism includes a first driving member, a turntable and a positioning shaft, and multiple positioning shafts are arranged on the turntable around the axis of the turntable, and the axial direction of the positioning shaft is parallel to the axial direction of the turntable, and the positioning shaft is used to put the dust ring; the feeding mechanism includes a clamp and a movable component, and the clamp is used to grab the dust ring put on the positioning shaft. Under the drive of the movable component, the clamp moves between a grabbing position for grabbing the dust ring and a loading position facing the shock absorber body; wherein, the number of dust rings put on the positioning shaft is multiple, and the first driving member drives the turntable to rotate along its own axial direction so that the positioning shaft with the dust ring put on it faces the grabbing position.
[0007] In the technical scheme of the embodiment of the present application, the discharge mechanism includes a first driving member, a turntable and a positioning shaft, a plurality of positioning shafts are arranged on the turntable around the axis of the turntable, and the positioning shaft is arranged close to the edge of the turntable, so that the interval distance between the grabbing position and the loading position is shorter, the time required for the clamping jaw to move between the grabbing position and the loading position is shortened, and the assembly rate of the shock absorber is accelerated, the axial direction of the positioning shaft is parallel to the axial direction of the turntable, and the axial direction of the positioning shaft is parallel to the lifting direction of the clamping jaw, which is convenient for the clamping jaw to grab the dust ring and leave the positioning shaft, the positioning shaft is used to put the dust ring, and the clamping jaw can take the dust ring from the positioning shaft from top to bottom in sequence; the feeding mechanism includes a clamping jaw and a movable component, the clamping jaw is used to grab the dust ring put on the positioning shaft, and the clamping jaw is driven by the movable component to move between the grabbing position of the dust ring and the loading position facing the shock absorber body; during the use of the automatic feeding equipment for shock-absorbing dust rings provided by the present application, a large number of dust rings are manually put on the positioning shaft, and the turntable rotates to rotate the positioning shaft with the dust ring put on to At the grabbing position, the clamp first descends under the drive of the movable component, and the clamp grabs a dust ring at the top of the positioning shaft, and the clamp rises again under the drive of the movable component, and then moves to the loading position under the drive of the movable component, and releases the dust ring after the clamp descends to put the dust ring on the shock absorber body to complete a loading operation, and then the clamp returns to the grabbing position under the drive of the movable component, grabs the next dust ring on the positioning shaft and installs it on the next shock absorber body. Among them, the number of dust rings put on the positioning shaft is multiple, so that before the multiple dust rings on the positioning shaft at the grabbing position are loaded by the clamp, the turntable can be in a stationary state, which is convenient for manual placement of dust rings on subsequent positioning shafts. The manual placement process of the dust ring and the mechanical placement of the dust ring on the shock absorber body can be carried out separately and do not interfere with each other, so that the step of placing the dust ring on the shock absorber is mainly completed by the machine, the time interval of each operation is fixed and the speed is fast, which improves the production rate of the shock absorber.
[0008] In some embodiments, the feeding mechanism is also provided with a first height sensor, which is used to obtain the height of the dust ring farthest from the turntable among multiple dust rings on the positioning shaft facing the grasping point, and determine the height of the grasping point based on the measurement result.
[0009] In the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, the feeding mechanism is also provided with a first height sensor, which is used to obtain the height of the dust ring located at the top of multiple dust rings on the positioning shaft opposite the grasping point. The movable component determines the distance that the clamping jaw descends this time in order to grasp the dust ring on the positioning shaft according to the measurement result of the first height sensor, so that the clamping jaw can accurately grasp the dust ring located at the top of the multiple dust rings on the positioning shaft, thereby reducing the risk of the shock absorber being scrapped due to the clamping jaw grasping nothing or grasping multiple dust rings and placing them on the shock absorber body.
[0010] In some embodiments, in the height direction of the positioning shaft, the surface of the positioning shaft facing away from the turntable is not lower than the surface of the dust ring farthest from the turntable among the multiple dust rings placed on the positioning shaft facing away from the turntable.
[0011] In the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, the surface of the positioning shaft facing away from the turntable is not lower than the surface of the dust ring farthest from the turntable among the multiple dust rings placed on the positioning shaft, so that the positioning shaft has a better effect of restricting the horizontal movement of the dust ring placed on itself, reducing the risk of the dust ring falling off during the rotation of the turntable or the grasping of the clamp, and preventing the clamp from easily grabbing the dust ring.
[0012] In some embodiments, a plurality of convex rings are equidistantly arranged along the axial direction of the positioning shaft, a dust ring is placed between any two adjacent convex rings, and the outer circumference of the convex ring does not exceed the outer circumference of the dust ring.
[0013] In the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, multiple convex rings are equidistantly arranged along the axial direction of the positioning shaft, and a dust ring is placed between any two adjacent convex rings. On the one hand, multiple dust rings can be arranged on the top of the positioning shaft through multiple convex rings, so that the distance required for the clamp to move down to the grabbing position where the dust ring is located is shortened, the time required for the clamp to move is reduced, and the rate at which the clamp places the dust ring sleeve on the shock absorber body is accelerated. On the other hand, since the height of the convex ring on the positioning shaft is constant, the distance that the clamp descends when grabbing the dust ring can be preset according to the position of the convex ring, reducing the time required for instant determination of the clamp's descending height, and accelerating the rate at which the clamp places the dust ring sleeve on the shock absorber body; the outer peripheral surface of the convex ring does not exceed the outer peripheral surface of the dust ring, so as to avoid the convex ring blocking the process of the clamp grasping the dust ring.
[0014] In some embodiments, the turntable is provided with a plurality of first through holes, and the plurality of first through holes are arranged around the axis of the turntable.
[0015] In the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, the above-mentioned turntable is provided with a plurality of first through holes, which makes the weight of the turntable lighter, reduces the energy consumed by the first driving member to drive the turntable to rotate, and is energy-saving and environmentally friendly. The plurality of first through holes are arranged around the axis of the turntable, and the plurality of first through holes are evenly distributed on the turntable, so that the center of gravity of the turntable can be located at the axis of the turntable, reducing the risk of deformation or flipping of the turntable caused by the deviation of the center of gravity of the turntable.
[0016] In some embodiments, the discharge mechanism further includes a frame, the turntable is rotatably disposed on the frame, and the first driving member is fixedly disposed on the frame.
[0017] In the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, the discharge mechanism also includes a frame, the turntable is rotatably arranged on the frame, and the first driving member is fixedly arranged on the frame. The frame makes the distance between the turntable and the clamping jaws closer. On the one hand, the distance required for the clamping jaws to move down to the grabbing position where the dust ring is located is shortened, reducing the time required for the clamping jaws to move, and speeding up the rate at which the clamping jaws place the dust ring sleeve on the shock absorber body. On the other hand, the bracket can support the turntable and reduce the risk of deformation or flipping of the turntable.
[0018] In some embodiments, the feeding mechanism further includes a limit member and a second driving member, wherein the limit member is used to engage with a positioning shaft located at the gripping position, and the second driving member drives the limit member to move toward or away from the gripping position to grip or release the positioning shaft.
[0019] In the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, the feeding mechanism also includes a limit piece and a second driving piece. The limit piece is used to engage with the positioning shaft located at the grasping position. The limit piece limits the displacement of the positioning shaft in the horizontal direction, which can reduce the probability of the positioning shaft being displaced under the action of the force applied to the positioning shaft when the clamping claw grasps the dustproof ring, thereby reducing the risk of the dustproof ring following the movement of the positioning shaft and causing the clamping claw to grasp empty space; the second driving piece drives the limit piece to move toward or away from the grasping position to clamp or release the positioning shaft, and the positioning shaft with the dustproof ring placed on it moves When it moves to the grabbing position, the second driving member drives the limiting member to move toward the positioning shaft and engage with it to limit the horizontal displacement of the positioning shaft. After the dust ring on the positioning shaft at the grabbing position is grabbed by the clamping claw, the second driving member drives the limiting member to move away from the grabbing position, and the turntable rotates to move the new positioning shaft with the dust ring to the grabbing position. The limiting member is configured to rise and fall along the height direction of the positioning shaft to push the dust ring to rise and fall along the positioning shaft, so that the dust ring can rise to the grabbing position under the push of the limiting member, which is convenient for the clamping claw to grab.
[0020] In some embodiments, there is a gap between the limiting member and the turntable in the axial direction of the turntable.
[0021] In the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, there is a gap between the limit member and the turntable in the axial direction of the turntable. When the positioning shaft has a tendency to move in the horizontal direction under the push of the clamp, the limit member is only subjected to the force from the positioning shaft in the horizontal direction, and is not subjected to the force from the turntable in the direction intersecting the horizontal plane, thereby reducing the risk of damage to the limit member due to changes in the force-bearing structure.
[0022] In some embodiments, the movable assembly includes a cantilever and a third driving member, the clamping jaw is movably mounted on the cantilever, and the third driving member drives the clamping jaw to move along the length direction of the cantilever.
[0023] In the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, the movable component includes a cantilever and a third driving member, the clamping jaw is movably mounted on the cantilever, the third driving member drives the clamping jaw to move along the length direction of the cantilever, one end of the cantilever faces the grabbing position, and the other end of the cantilever faces the loading position, after the clamping jaw grabs the dust ring, the third driving member drives the clamping jaw to move from the grabbing position to the loading position along the cantilever, and after the clamping jaw places the dust ring on the shock absorber, the third driving member drives the clamping jaw to move from the loading position to the grabbing position, so that the clamping jaw grabs the new dust ring to load the next shock absorber body.
[0024] In some embodiments, the movable component further includes a fourth driving member, which is disposed at an output end of the third driving member, and drives the clamping jaw to move along the axial direction of the positioning shaft to approach or move away from the positioning shaft.
[0025] In the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, the fourth driving member is arranged at the output end of the third driving member, the third driving member drives the clamping jaw to move from the loading position to the grabbing position, the fourth driving member drives the clamping jaw to descend along the axial direction of the positioning shaft to approach the positioning shaft to grab the dust ring, and then the fourth driving member drives the clamping jaw to rise along the axial direction of the positioning shaft to take the dust ring away from the positioning shaft, the third driving member drives the clamping jaw to move from the grabbing position to the loading position along the cantilever, the fourth driving member drives the clamping jaw to descend along the axial direction of the positioning shaft to approach the shock absorber body to place the dust ring grabbed by the clamping jaw on the shock absorber body, and then the fourth driving member drives the clamping jaw to rise along the axial direction of the positioning shaft so that the clamping jaw grabs a new dust ring to load the next shock absorber body.

[0042] According to some embodiments of the present application, optionally, Figure 1 to Figure 4As shown, the present application provides an automatic feeding device for shock absorber dust rings, which is used to install dust rings to the shock absorber body. The automatic feeding device for shock absorber dust rings includes a discharge mechanism 1 and a feeding mechanism 2; the discharge mechanism 1 includes a first driving member 10, a turntable 11 and a positioning shaft 12, and multiple positioning shafts 12 are arranged on the turntable 11 around the axis of the turntable 11, and the axial direction of the positioning shaft 12 is parallel to the axial direction of the turntable 11, and the positioning shaft 12 is used to put the dust ring; the feeding mechanism 2 includes a clamping jaw 20 and a movable component 21, and the clamping jaw 20 is used to grab the dust ring put on the positioning shaft 12. Under the drive of the movable component 21, the clamping jaw 20 moves between a grabbing position for grabbing the dust ring and a feeding position facing the shock absorber body; wherein, the number of dust rings put on the positioning shaft 12 is multiple, and the first driving member 10 drives the turntable 11 to rotate along its own axial direction so that the positioning shaft 12 with the dust ring put on it faces the grabbing position.
[0043] The dust seal may be made of rubber material, plastic material, composite sealing material or other material having certain elasticity or deformability.
[0044] The diameter of the positioning shaft 12 can be smaller than the inner diameter of the dust ring, and the limiting effect of the positioning shaft 12 on the dust ring is weak, and the clamp 20 can easily remove the dust ring from the positioning shaft 12; or, the diameter of the positioning shaft 12 can be equal to the inner diameter of the dust ring, and the positioning shaft 12 can limit the dust ring to a certain extent; or, the diameter of the positioning shaft 12 can be larger than the inner diameter of the dust ring, and the positioning shaft 12 can limit the dust ring more effectively, reducing the risk of the dust ring moving on the positioning shaft 12 and making it inconvenient for the clamp 20 to grasp it.
[0045] The first driving member 10 may be a rotary motor.
[0046] The positioning shaft 12 may be disposed on the surface of the turntable 11 facing away from the ground or the working platform.
[0047] The number of the plurality of positioning shafts 12 may be three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten or more.
[0048] The angles of intervals between the multiple positioning axes 12 distributed on the turntable 11 can be the same, so that under the premise that the turntable 11 rotates at the same speed each time, the interval time required for the next positioning axis 12 to be moved to the grasping position is fixed, which makes it easy for the clamp 20 to adjust the interval time of each activity to match the time required for the rotation of the turntable 11.
[0049] The discharge mechanism 1 includes a first driving member 10, a rotating disk 11 and a positioning shaft 12. A plurality of positioning shafts 12 are arranged on the rotating disk 11 around the axis of the rotating disk 11. The positioning shafts 12 are arranged close to the edge of the rotating disk 11, so that the interval between the grabbing position and the feeding position is shorter, the time required for the clamping jaw 20 to move between the grabbing position and the feeding position is shortened, and the assembly rate of the shock absorber is accelerated. The axial direction of the positioning shaft 12 is parallel to the axial direction of the rotating disk 11, and the axial direction of the positioning shaft 12 is parallel to the lifting direction of the clamping jaw 20, so that the clamping jaw 20 can grab the dust ring and leave the positioning shaft 12. The positioning shaft 12 is used to put the dust ring, and the clamping jaws 20 can take the dust ring from the positioning shaft 12 in sequence from top to bottom; the feeding mechanism 2 includes a clamping jaw 20 and a movable component 21, and the clamping jaw 20 is used to grab the dust ring put on the positioning shaft 12. Under the drive of the movable component 21, the clamping jaw 20 moves between the grabbing position for grabbing the dust ring and the feeding position facing the shock absorber body; during the use of the automatic feeding device for shock-absorbing dust rings provided by the present application, a large number of dust rings are manually placed on the positioning shaft 12, and the turntable 11 rotates to put the dust rings on the positioning shaft 12. The positioning shaft 12 rotates to the grasping position, the clamping jaw 20 first descends under the drive of the movable component 21, and the clamping jaw 20 grabs a dust ring located at the top of the positioning shaft 12, and then the clamping jaw 20 rises under the drive of the movable component 21, and then moves to the feeding position under the drive of the movable component 21. After the clamping jaw 20 descends, the dust ring is released to install the dust ring on the shock absorber body, completing a loading operation, and then the clamping jaw 20 returns to the grasping position under the drive of the movable component 21, grabs the next dust ring on the positioning shaft 12 and installs it on the next shock absorber body. Among them, there are multiple dust rings placed on the positioning shaft 12, so that before the multiple dust rings on the positioning shaft 12 at the grasping position are loaded by the clamping claws 20, the turntable 11 can be in a stationary state, which is convenient for manual placement of dust rings on subsequent positioning shafts 12. The manual placement of dust rings and the mechanical placement of dust rings on the shock absorber body can be carried out separately and do not interfere with each other, so that the step of placing dust rings on the shock absorber is mainly completed by the machine, the time interval for each operation is fixed and the speed is fast, which improves the production rate of the shock absorber.
[0050] According to some embodiments of the present application, optionally, the feeding mechanism 2 is further provided with a first height sensor, which is used to obtain the height of the dust ring farthest from the turntable 11 among the multiple dust rings on the positioning shaft 12 facing the grasping point, and determine the height of the grasping point based on the measurement result.
[0051] A height sensor is a device used to measure the height or position of an object. It can convert height information into a digital signal for remote monitoring or control system processing. The working principles of height sensors are diverse, including air pressure measurement, laser ranging, sound wave ranging, etc.
[0052] Preferably, the first sensor may be a laser sensor.
[0053] Laser sensor is a device that uses laser technology to measure and detect. It determines the position, distance, speed or other characteristics of an object by emitting a laser beam and receiving its reflected or scattered signal. Laser sensor has the advantages of high precision, long-distance measurement capability, strong anti-interference ability, etc., so that the descending height of the dust ring of the clamping jaw 20 can be adjusted in time according to the position of the dust ring at the top of the positioning shaft 12.
[0054] The feeding mechanism 2 is also provided with a first height sensor, which is used to obtain the height of the dust ring located at the top of multiple dust rings on the positioning shaft 12 facing the grasping point. The movable component 21 determines the distance that the clamp 20 descends this time in order to grasp the dust ring on the positioning shaft 12 according to the measurement result of the first height sensor, so that the clamp 20 can accurately grasp the dust ring located at the top of the multiple dust rings on the positioning shaft 12, thereby reducing the risk of the clamp 20 grasping nothing or grasping multiple dust rings and placing them on the shock absorber body, resulting in the scrapping of the produced shock absorber.
[0055] According to some embodiments of the present application, optionally, in the height direction of the positioning shaft 12, the surface of the positioning shaft 12 facing away from the turntable 11 is not lower than the surface of the dust ring farthest from the turntable 11 among the multiple dust rings placed on the positioning shaft 12 facing away from the turntable 11.
[0056] When the surface of the positioning shaft 12 facing away from the turntable 11 is lower than the surface of the dust ring farthest from the turntable 11 among the multiple dust rings placed on the positioning shaft 12, the limiting effect of the positioning shaft 12 on the topmost dust ring is weak, and the dust ring at the topmost position may fall off the positioning shaft 12 due to the vibration generated by the rotation of the turntable 11 during the rotation of the turntable 11. Alternatively, the limiting effect of the positioning shaft 12 on the topmost dust ring is weak, and when the clamp 20 grabs the dust ring at the topmost position, the dust ring may move by itself due to the push of the clamp 20 and fall off the positioning shaft 12 before being clamped by the clamp 20.
[0057] The surface of the positioning shaft 12 facing away from the turntable 11 is not lower than the surface of the dust ring farthest from the turntable 11 among the multiple dust rings placed on the positioning shaft 12, so that the positioning shaft 12 can better restrict the horizontal movement of the dust ring placed on itself, reduce the risk of the dust ring falling off during the rotation of the turntable 11 or the grasping process of the clamping claw 20, and prevent the clamping claw 20 from easily grabbing the dust ring.
[0058] According to some embodiments of the present application, optionally, Figure 1 to Figure 5As shown, a plurality of convex rings 120 are equidistantly arranged along the axial direction of the positioning shaft 12 , a dust ring is placed between any two adjacent convex rings 120 , and the outer circumference of the convex ring 120 does not exceed the outer circumference of the dust ring.
[0059] In the axial direction of the positioning shaft 12, the spacing size between two adjacent convex rings 120 can be larger than the size of the dust ring, making it easier to put the dust ring on the positioning shaft 12, reducing the difficulty of putting the dust ring on the positioning shaft 12, and making the distance between adjacent dust rings farther, reducing the risk of the clamping jaw 20 grabbing the dust ring located above and bringing up the dust ring located below; or, the spacing size between two adjacent convex rings 120 can be less than or equal to the size of the dust ring, and the two adjacent convex rings 120 have a better limiting effect on the dust ring, reducing the risk of the dust ring moving on its own during the process of being grasped by the clamping jaw 20, causing the clamping jaw 20 to grab empty space.
[0060] A plurality of convex rings 120 are equidistantly arranged along the axial direction of the positioning shaft 12, and a dust ring is placed between any two adjacent convex rings 120. On the one hand, the plurality of dust rings can be arranged on the top of the positioning shaft 12 through the plurality of convex rings 120, so that the distance required for the jaws 20 to move down to the grasping position where the dust ring is located is shortened, the time required for the jaws 20 to move is reduced, and the speed at which the jaws 20 put the dust ring sleeve on the shock absorber body is accelerated. On the other hand, since the height of the convex ring 120 on the positioning shaft 12 is constant, the distance that the jaws 20 descend when grasping the dust ring can be preset according to the position of the convex ring 120, which reduces the time required for instant determination of the descending height of the jaws 20, and accelerates the speed at which the jaws 20 put the dust ring sleeve on the shock absorber body.
[0061] The outer circumferential surface of the convex ring 120 does not exceed the outer circumferential surface of the dust ring, so as to prevent the convex ring 120 from blocking the clamping jaws 20 from gripping the dust ring.
[0062] According to some embodiments of the present application, optionally, Figure 1 to Figure 5 As shown, the turntable 11 is provided with a plurality of first through holes 110 , and the plurality of first through holes 110 are arranged around the axis of the turntable 11 .
[0063] The aperture of a portion of the plurality of first through holes 110 may be larger or smaller than another portion of the plurality of first through holes 110 , and the first through holes 110 with larger or smaller apertures may be alternately arranged with another portion of the first through holes 110 .
[0064] The turntable 11 is provided with a plurality of first through holes 110, so that the weight of the turntable 11 is lighter, the energy consumed by the first driving member 10 to drive the turntable 11 to rotate is reduced, and energy saving and environmental protection are achieved. The plurality of first through holes 110 are arranged around the axis of the turntable 11, and the plurality of first through holes 110 are evenly distributed on the turntable 11, so that the center of gravity of the turntable 11 can be located at the axis of the turntable 11, thereby reducing the risk of deformation or flipping of the turntable 11 caused by the deviation of the center of gravity of the turntable 11.
[0065] In some embodiments, the turntable 11 may be a frame structure, so that the turntable 11 has sufficient structural strength and a small weight.
[0066] According to some embodiments of the present application, optionally, Figure 1 to Figure 3 As shown, the unloading mechanism 1 further includes a frame 13 , the turntable 11 is rotatably disposed on the frame 13 , and the first driving member 10 is fixedly disposed on the frame 13 .
[0067] The frame 13 can be arranged on the ground or on a working platform.
[0068] The surface of the turntable 11 close to the ground or the working platform can be in rotational contact with the frame 13 .
[0069] The discharge mechanism 1 also includes a frame 13, and the turntable 11 is rotatably arranged on the frame 13. The first driving member 10 is fixedly arranged on the frame 13. The frame 13 makes the interval between the turntable 11 and the clamping jaw 20 closer. On the one hand, the distance required for the clamping jaw 20 to move down to the grasping position where the dust ring is located is shortened, the time required for the clamping jaw 20 to move is reduced, and the speed at which the clamping jaw 20 puts the dust ring into the shock absorber body is accelerated. On the other hand, the bracket can support the turntable 11 to reduce the risk of deformation or overturning of the turntable 11.
[0070] According to some embodiments of the present application, optionally, Figure 1 to Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the feeding mechanism 2 also includes a limit member 22 and a second driving member 23. The limit member 22 is used to engage with the positioning shaft 12 located at the grasping position, and the second driving member 23 drives the limit member 22 to move toward or away from the grasping position to clamp or release the positioning shaft 12.
[0071] The limiting member 22 may have an arc groove, and the arc groove of the limiting member 22 is adapted to the outer circumference of the positioning shaft 12 . The limiting member 22 may fit the outer circumference of the positioning shaft 12 at the grasping position through the arc groove to limit the positioning shaft 12 .
[0072] The feeding mechanism 2 also includes a limit member 22 and a second drive member 23. The limit member 22 is used to engage with the positioning shaft 12 located at the grasping position. The limit member 22 limits the displacement of the positioning shaft 12 in the horizontal direction, which can reduce the probability of displacement of the positioning shaft 12 under the action of the force applied to the positioning shaft 12 when the clamping claw 20 grasps the dust ring, thereby reducing the risk of the dust ring following the movement of the positioning shaft 12 and causing the clamping claw 20 to catch nothing; the second drive member 23 drives the limit member 22 to move toward or away from the grasping position to clamp or release the positioning shaft 12, and the positioning shaft 12 with the dust ring placed on it moves to the grasping position. When the dust ring on the positioning shaft 12 at the grasping position is grasped by the clamping claw 20, the second driving member 23 drives the limiting member to move away from the grasping position, and the turntable 11 rotates to move the new positioning shaft 12 with the dust ring to the grasping position. The limiting member 22 is configured to rise and fall along the height direction of the positioning shaft 12 to push the dust ring to rise and fall along the positioning shaft 12, so that the dust ring can rise to the grasping position under the push of the limiting member 22, so as to facilitate the grasping of the clamping claw 20.
[0073] According to some embodiments of the present application, optionally, there is a gap between the limiting member 22 and the turntable 11 in the axial direction of the turntable 11 .
[0074] In the axial direction of the turntable 11, there is a gap between the limit member 22 and the turntable 11. When the positioning shaft 12 has a displacement movement tendency under the push of the clamp 20, the limit member 22 is only subjected to the horizontal force from the positioning shaft 12, and is not subjected to the force from the turntable 11 in the direction intersecting the horizontal plane, thereby reducing the risk of damage to the limit member 22 due to changes in the force structure.
[0075] According to some embodiments of the present application, optionally, Figure 1-2 , Figure 6-7 As shown, the movable assembly 21 includes a cantilever 210 and a third driving member 211 . The clamping jaw 20 is movably mounted on the cantilever 210 . The third driving member 211 drives the clamping jaw 20 to move along the length direction of the cantilever 210 .
[0076] The clamping jaw 20 can be slidably matched with the sliding groove on the surface of the cantilever 210 .
[0077] The cantilever 210 may be provided with a positioning rod, the length direction of the positioning rod is parallel to the length direction of the cantilever 210 , and the clamping jaw 20 may be provided with a limiting hole for cooperating with the positioning rod. The clamping jaw 20 moves along the length direction of the cantilever 210 under the guidance of the limiting rod.
[0078] The movable component 21 includes a cantilever 210 and a third driving member 211. The clamp 20 can be movably installed on the cantilever 210. The third driving member 211 drives the clamp 20 to move along the length direction of the cantilever 210. One end of the cantilever 210 is opposite to the grabbing position, and the other end of the cantilever 210 is opposite to the loading position. After the clamp 20 grabs the dust ring, the third driving member 211 drives the clamp 20 to move from the grabbing position to the loading position along the cantilever 210. After the clamp 20 places the dust ring on the shock absorber, the third driving member 211 drives the clamp 20 to move from the loading position to the grabbing position, so that the clamp 20 grabs the new dust ring to load the next shock absorber body.
[0079] According to some embodiments of the present application, optionally, Figure 1-2 , Figure 6-7 As shown, the movable assembly 21 further includes a fourth driving member 212 , which is disposed at the output end of the third driving member 211 . The fourth driving member 212 drives the clamping jaw 20 to move along the axial direction of the positioning shaft 12 to approach or move away from the positioning shaft 12 .
[0080] The fourth driving member 212 drives the clamping jaw 20 to move up and down in a direction parallel to the axial direction of the rotating disk 11 .
[0081] The fourth driving member 212 is arranged at the output end of the third driving member 211, and the third driving member 211 drives the clamping jaw 20 to move from the loading position to the grabbing position, and the fourth driving member 212 drives the clamping jaw 20 to descend along the axial direction of the positioning shaft 12 to approach the positioning shaft 12 to grab the dust ring, and then the fourth driving member 212 drives the clamping jaw 20 to rise along the axial direction of the positioning shaft 12 to take the dust ring away from the positioning shaft 12, and the third driving member 211 drives the clamping jaw 20 to move from the grabbing position to the loading position along the cantilever 210, and the fourth driving member 212 drives the clamping jaw 20 to descend along the axial direction of the positioning shaft 12 to approach the shock absorber body to place the dust ring grabbed by the clamping jaw 20 on the shock absorber body, and then the fourth driving member 212 drives the clamping jaw 20 to rise along the axial direction of the positioning shaft 12, so that the clamping jaw 20 grabs a new dust ring to load the next shock absorber body.
