Therefore, the directional terms used are used to illustrate and not to limit the present invention. In addition, in all embodiments, the same reference numerals represent the same elements.
[0043] Embodiment 1
[0044] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 , an O-ring assembly mechanism, comprising:
[0045] The assembly module includes an assembly power source 101, at least one pushing assembly connected to the assembly power source 101, and a transition sleeve 40 provided on one side of the pushing assembly;
[0046] A material taking module, comprising a material taking power source 202 and at least one material taking rod 30 connected to the material taking power source 202;
[0047] Among them, the material picking rod 30 passes through the transition sleeve 40, and the transition sleeve 40 and the material picking rod 30 are slidably connected; after the material picking power source 202 pushes the material picking rod 30 down to obtain the O-ring, it pulls the material picking rod 30 up to transition the O-ring to the transition sleeve 40, and the assembly power source 101 pushes the transition sleeve 40 to push the O-ring to the product.
[0048] This embodiment provides an O-ring assembly mechanism, which improves assembly efficiency and quality, reduces labor costs, and improves production safety and consistency.
[0049] In this embodiment, there are four assembly power sources 101, and correspondingly, there are four push components, transition sleeves 40, and material picking rods 30, respectively. It can be understood that the O-ring assembly mechanism provided in this embodiment can assemble four O-rings to the product at the same time. Those skilled in the art can design the number of assembly power sources 101, push components, transition sleeves 40, and material picking rods 30 according to actual needs to meet the assembly requirements of the product.
[0050] In this embodiment, combined with Figure 3 The assembly module also includes a base for installing the assembly power source 101, a joint 103 connected to the action end of the assembly power source 101, and a sliding unit fixed to the base and connected to the joint 103.
[0051] Specifically, the base includes a horizontally arranged first fixing plate 102 and a vertically arranged base plate 106. The first fixing plate 102 is arranged on the top of the base plate 106. The first fixing plate 102 is used to install four assembly power sources 101. The base plate 106 is used to install the sliding unit.
[0052] The sliding unit includes four guide rails 104 arranged along the length direction of the base and a slider 105 slidably connected to at least one of the guide rails 104 and fixed to a base plate 106. The pushing assembly is connected to the guide rails 104.
[0053] In this embodiment, the pushing assembly includes a first fixing seat 107 and a pushing block 108. The action end of the assembled power source 101 is connected to the first fixing seat 107 and the first fixing seat 107 is close to the bottom of the base plate 106. The first fixing seat 107 and the pushing block 108 are fixedly connected. The pushing block 108 is provided with a mounting hole, and the transition sleeve 40 is arranged in the mounting hole. Obviously, in order to fix the transition sleeve 40, the shape of the mounting hole of the pushing block 108 matches the shape of the transition sleeve 40.
[0054] In this embodiment, combined with Figure 4 and Figure 5The material taking module further includes a second fixing seat 204 fixedly connected to the base, a pull plate 201 disposed on the top of the second fixing seat 204, and a pressing block 206 disposed on the bottom of the second fixing seat 204. The material taking rod 30 sequentially passes through the pull plate 201 and the second fixing seat 204. The pressing block 206 is in abutment contact with at least a portion of the transition sleeve 40, and the pressing block 206 is used to press the transition sleeve 40 tightly.
[0055] In this embodiment, the material taking module further comprises a second fixing plate 203 fixed to a side of the second fixing seat 204 away from the base. The second fixing plate 203 is used to install the material taking power source 202 .
[0056] Furthermore, if Figure 5 As shown, the material taking module further includes a limit plate 205 fixed on the second fixing seat 204. The limit plate 205 is used to support the material taking power source 202. The limit plate 205 provides a stable foundation for the material taking power source 202, ensures the stability and verticality of the material taking power source 202 during operation, and prevents vibration or deviation caused by unstable installation. In addition, the limit plate 205 can conveniently fix the material taking power source 202 at a desired position, and is connected to the second fixing plate 203 by bolts or the like, so as to facilitate the installation and positioning of the material taking power source 202.
[0057] In this embodiment, if Figure 6 As shown, the material taking rod 30 comprises a first body 301. An operating portion 302 and a connecting portion 303 are respectively disposed at two ends of the first body 301. The operating portion 302 is provided with a plurality of guide grooves 304 along the length direction of the first body 301.
[0058] In this embodiment, if Figure 7 As shown, the transition sleeve 40 includes a second body 401. One end of the second body 401 is provided with a claw portion 402. The claw portion 402 has a plurality of claws, and the number of the guide grooves 304 is the same as the number of the claws. When the material taking rod 30 rises or falls, the material taking rod 30 can avoid collision with the transition sleeve 40.
[0059] In this embodiment, both the assembly power source 101 and the material taking power source 202 can use cylinders, and the movement of the cylinders can be controlled by adjusting the air pressure to achieve rapid response and precise control. The technical personnel in this field can select and adjust the model of the cylinders according to their needs.
[0060] like Figure 8 As shown, the working principle of this embodiment is as follows:
[0061] The material picking power source 202 controls the descending action of the material picking rod 30, and the material picking rod 30 descends to the O-ring storage position, which is usually a vibrating plate or a hopper, and its design ensures that the O-ring can be separated individually and accurately grabbed by the material picking rod 30.
[0062] After the picking rod 30 successfully grabs the O-ring, the picking power source 202 drives the picking rod 30 to rise to a certain height to move the O-ring out of the picking position.
[0063] The material taking rod 30 rises to the position of the transition sleeve 40. The transition sleeve 40 is a component designed to temporarily store the O-ring to help the O-ring to smoothly transition to the next assembly stage.
[0064] The assembly power source 101 controls the pushing assembly to push the O-ring from the transition sleeve 40 to the final assembly position of the product.
[0065] Once the O-ring is correctly installed, the assembly power source 101 will return to its original position, and the material picking rod 30 will also return to its initial position, waiting for the start of the next material picking and assembly cycle, thereby achieving a continuous grabbing and assembly action.
[0066] Embodiment 2
[0067] This embodiment provides an assembly device, including the O-ring assembly mechanism provided in the first embodiment.
[0068] In this embodiment, the assembly equipment further comprises a moving mechanism. The moving mechanism is used to move the O-ring assembly mechanism to the assembly position. The moving mechanism can be a push rod driven by another cylinder or a mechanical arm.
[0069] It should be noted that the main design point of the utility model lies in the structural improvement of the O-ring assembly mechanism, and other structures of the assembly equipment, such as the mechanical structure of the robot arm, will not be described in detail.
[0070] In the description of the embodiments of the present utility model, it is also necessary to explain that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "set" and "connection" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection, or it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal communication of two components. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present utility model can be understood according to specific circumstances.
[0071] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely examples for the purpose of clear explanation and are not intended to limit the implementation methods. For those skilled in the art, other different forms of changes or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is not necessary and impossible to list all the implementation methods here. The obvious changes or modifications derived from these are still within the scope of protection of the invention of the utility model.
