[0002] The Docking card is the expansion dock circuit board, and the plug-in structure thereof is the structure for realizing the plug-in assembly of the expansion dock circuit board and the wires. At present, since the wires used for plugging the Docking card are flexible cable structures, it is difficult to form a set of plug-in assembly equipment with a high degree of automation to realize the automatic plug-in of the Docking card and the wires, and the manual plug-in process is relatively time-consuming and labor-intensive, and the production efficiency is also low, so it is extremely unfavorable for current production needs. In the prior art, although there are some plug-in assembly equipment, such as a patented light board plug-in component plug-in machine (Announcement No. CN220235337U), none of them take into account the plug-in of flexible wires with a certain length, that is, none of them take into account the impact of the plug-in accuracy and stability caused by the flexibility of the wires. Utility Model Content

[0003] In order to solve the above technical problems, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a Docking card insertion structure that can adapt to the automated plug-in assembly operation of flexible cables and Docking cards, while ensuring higher positioning accuracy and better plug-in stability.

[0007] A group of supporting plates is also arranged between the insertion position and the unloading position. The end of the supporting plate close to the insertion position is tilted downward to be lower than the disk surface of the electric turntable, and is used to support the suspended wire when the electric turntable drives the Docking card to rotate toward the unloading position. The end of the supporting plate close to the unloading position is horizontally arranged, and is used to horizontally support the wire rotated to the unloading position.

[0008] By setting the loading position, the insertion position, the unloading position and the empty position, the electric turntable drives the four groups of card carriers to rotate, so as to realize the assembly line operation of a group of Docking cards from loading to insertion to unloading, thereby improving the production efficiency. The support plate set between the insertion position and the unloading position can be used to receive the wires suspended outside the electric turntable when the electric turntable drives the Docking card to rotate after the plugging is completed.

During insertion, the lifting cylinder drives the plug carrier to descend, so that the end of the wire is separated from the plug carrier, and the lifting cylinder pushes the wire in the direction of the cardboard carrier until the end plug of the wire is plugged into the Docking card in the cardboard carrier. The setting of the plug carrier can improve the positioning effect of the wire.

[0024] like Figure 1-3 As shown, a Docking card insertion structure, in this embodiment, includes an electric turntable 1, a loading manipulator, an insertion part 2 and a unloading manipulator, and a loading position 3, an insertion position 4, an unloading position 5 and an empty position 6 are sequentially distributed around the electric turntable 1 at intervals of 90 degrees. Four groups of mounting plates 11 extend horizontally outward from the disk surface of the electric turntable 1, and four groups of card carriers 12 are positioned on the four groups of mounting plates 11. As the electric turntable 1 rotates, the four groups of card carriers 12 correspond to the loading position 3, the insertion position 4, the unloading position 5 and the empty position 6 respectively;

[0025] At the loading position 3, the loading robot is used to load the Docking card 7 onto the pallet carrier 12, and the electric turntable 1 is used to drive the four groups of pallet carriers 12 to rotate and change positions at intervals of 90 degrees. At the insertion position 4, the insertion part 2 with the wire 8 is used to insert the wire 8 with the Docking card 7 rotated into place. At the unloading position 5, the unloading robot is used to clamp the inserted Docking card out of the pallet carrier 12, and when the pallet carrier 12 rotates from the unloading position 5 to the empty position 6, it is set to be empty.

[0026] A set of supporting plates 9 is also installed between the insertion position 4 and the unloading position 5 through the bracket 10. The end of the supporting plate 9 close to the insertion position 4 is tilted downward to be lower than the disk surface of the electric turntable 1, and is used to support the suspended wire 8 when the electric turntable 1 drives the Docking card 7 to rotate toward the unloading position 5. The end of the supporting plate 9 close to the unloading position 5 is horizontally arranged, and is used to horizontally support the wire 8 rotated to the unloading position 5;

[0027] A set of pressure cylinders 22 are also installed on one side of the plug-in position through the stand 21. The driving end of the pressure cylinder 22 is connected to a set of rubber-coated pressure heads 23. The rubber-coated pressure heads 23 are used to press against the Docking card 7 when the Docking card 7 and the wire 8 are plugged in, so as to further improve the stability of the plug-in.

[0028] At this point, by setting the loading position 3, the insertion position 4, the unloading position 5 and the empty position 6, the electric turntable 1 drives the four groups of card carriers 12 to rotate, so as to realize the assembly line operation of a group of Docking cards 7 from loading to insertion to unloading, thereby improving the production efficiency. The supporting plate 9 arranged between the insertion position 4 and the unloading position 5 can be used to receive the wire 8 suspended outside the electric turntable 1 when the electric turntable 1 drives the Docking card 7 to rotate after the plug-in is completed, until it rotates to the unloading position 5, it can realize horizontal support of the wire 8 rotated into place, avoid affecting the plug-in effect when the wire 8 is bent, thereby improving the stability of the plug-in, and the layout distribution between the various structural components is more reasonable, so that the components are more compact, thereby further reducing the overall device footprint.

[0029] The insertion part 2 includes a slide module 24, a top insertion cylinder 25, and a pneumatic finger 26. The driving end of the slide module 24 is installed with the top insertion cylinder 25 through plate one, and is used to drive the top insertion cylinder 25 to move toward the insertion position 4. The driving end of the top insertion cylinder 25 is installed with a pneumatic finger 26 through plate two. The pneumatic finger 26 is used to clamp the end plug of the positioning wire 8 and perform a plug-in operation with the Docking card 7 under the drive of the top insertion cylinder 25. By realizing double driving in the same direction through the slide module 24 and the top insertion cylinder 25, the forward movement accuracy can be ensured and the success rate of the plug-in finished product can be improved.

[0030] A lifting cylinder 27 is also installed on the plate 1, and a plug carrier 28 is installed on the driving end of the lifting cylinder 27. A positioning groove 29 for cooperating with the end plug of the wire 8 is opened on the plug carrier 28. Therefore, the position of the wire 8 can be located by the positioning groove 29, and then clamped and positioned by the pneumatic fingers 26. During insertion, the lifting cylinder 27 drives the plug carrier 28 to descend, so that the end of the wire 8 is separated from the plug carrier 28, and the lifting cylinder 25 pushes the wire 8 toward the cardboard carrier 12 until the end plug of the wire 8 is plugged into the Docking card 7 in the cardboard carrier 12. The setting of the plug carrier 28 can improve the positioning effect of the wire 8.

[0031] A group of pressure sensors 210 are also installed on plate one through vertical plate one, and pneumatic fingers 26 are installed on plate two through vertical plate two, and the sensing end of the pressure sensor 210 is used for top pressure sensing of vertical plate two that slides into place under the drive of the top cylinder 25, thereby avoiding excessive collision and causing a decrease in accuracy.

[0032] A set of support platforms 211 are also fixed to the top of the second vertical plate. The support platforms 211 are used to support the wire 8 when the plug carrier 28 positions the end of the wire 8, so as to improve the stability of the wire positioning.

[0033] The working principle of the utility model is:

[0034] After the loading robot places the Docking card 7 on the cardboard carrier 12 of the loading position 3, the electric turntable 1 drives the cardboard carrier 12 to rotate 90° to the insertion position 4. At the insertion position 4, the plug at the end of the wire 8 is placed in the plug carrier 28, and the pneumatic finger 26 clamps and positions the end of the wire 8. After the slide module 24 moves the wire 8 to the insertion position 4, the top insertion cylinder 25 continues to move the wire 8 forward, so that the plug at the end of the wire 8 can be docked with the Docking card 7. After the docking is completed, the electric turntable 1 continues to drive the cardboard carrier 12 to rotate 90°. During this process, the supporting plate 9 is used to support the wire 8 to prevent the plug-in position from loosening due to the weight of the wire 8. At the unloading position 5, the unloading robot is used to clamp the docking completed Docking card out of the cardboard carrier 12. The electric turntable 1 continues to drive the cardboard carrier 12 to rotate 90° to the empty material position 6. At the empty material position 6, it waits to rotate to the loading position 3 for loading.
