[0074] In order to better understand the technical solution of the present application, the embodiments of the present application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0075] It should be clear that the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in the field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present application.
[0076] The terms used in the embodiments of the present application are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments, and are not intended to limit the present application. The singular forms "a", "said" and "the" used in the embodiments of the present application and the appended claims are also intended to include plural forms, unless the context clearly indicates other meanings.
[0077] It should be understood that the term "and / or" used in this article is only a description of the association relationship of associated objects, indicating that there can be three relationships. For example, A and / or B can represent: A exists alone, A and B exist at the same time, and B exists alone. In addition, the character " / " in this article generally indicates that the associated objects before and after are in an "or" relationship.
[0078] The present application provides an assembly device for a cooking utensil handle, which can be used to assemble a handle of a pot, including but not limited to a frying pan, a pressure cooker, etc. Figure 1As shown, the cooking utensil handle assembly device may include a positioning portion 1 and a first mounting assembly 2, wherein the positioning portion 1 is used to place the handle 9, and the first mounting assembly 2 is used to mount an elastic member 91 on the handle 9, and the elastic member 91 may be a spring or the like. Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the first mounting assembly 2 includes a first moving part 21, a second moving part 22 and a first guide part 23, the first guide part 23 includes a first guide groove 231 and a second guide groove 232, the first moving part 21 can move along the first guide groove 231, and the second moving part 22 can move along the second guide groove 232. The first guide groove 231 and the second guide groove 232 are connected and have an angle. When the first moving part 21 moves relative to the first guide groove 231, the first moving part 21 can compress and drive the elastic member 91 located in the first guide groove 231 to move along the first guide groove 231, and make the elastic member 91 enter the second guide groove 232. When the second moving part 22 moves along the second guide groove 232, the second moving part 22 can drive the elastic member 91 located in the second guide groove 232 to move, so that the elastic member 91 enters the handle 9, thereby installing the elastic member 91 on the handle 9.
[0079] By adopting the assembly equipment of the cooking utensil handle provided in the embodiment of the present application, the handle 9 can be automatically assembled during the production process. Usually, the handle 9 of the cooking utensil, especially the detachable handle 9, is provided with multiple parts including the elastic member 91. The manual assembly method requires a high labor force. Moreover, since the elastic member 91 needs to be manually compressed before it can be put into the handle 9, the labor intensity is high during manual assembly. Moreover, since the elastic member 91 will rebound, it is easy to be not assembled in place during the manual installation process, which affects the quality of the handle 9 and further affects the overall use of the cooking utensil. The solution provided in the embodiment of the present application can compress and install the elastic member 91 through the first installation component 2, reduce the manual operation steps during the assembly process of the handle 9, and compared with manual operation, the automated processing by mechanical equipment is more efficient and has higher assembly accuracy, which is conducive to improving the assembly quality of the handle 9 and is more in line with actual production needs.
[0080] like Figure 1 As shown, in a possible embodiment, along the height direction of the assembly device of the cooking utensil handle, the first mounting assembly 2 is located above the positioning portion 1. Figure 3As shown, the second guide groove 232 can be arranged along the height direction of the assembly device, and the first guide groove 231 can be arranged perpendicular to the second guide groove 232. For example, the first guide groove 231 can be arranged along the width direction or the length direction of the assembly device. The first guide groove 231 and the second guide groove 232 can approximately form a horizontal "T" structure. The width of the second guide groove 232 is less than the length of the elastic member 91 before compression. The width of the second guide groove 232 can be 5 mm to 15 mm. For example, the width of the second guide groove 232 can be 5 mm, 6 mm, 7 mm, 8 mm, 9 mm, 10 mm, 11 mm, 12 mm, 13 mm, 14 mm, 15 mm, etc. When the first movable portion 21 moves along the first guide groove 231, it can drive the elastic member 91 to move along the first guide groove 231. Since the length of the elastic member 91 is greater than the width of the second guide groove 232, when one end of the elastic member 91 extends into the second guide groove 232 and abuts against the side wall of the second guide groove 232, the other end has not yet entered the second guide groove 232. At this time, the first movable portion 21 continues to move along the first guide groove 231. Since one end of the elastic member 91 abuts against the side wall of the second guide groove 232, the elastic member 91 is compressed as the first movable portion 21 moves, so that the elastic member 91 can completely enter the second guide groove 232. Since the elastic member 91 is in a compressed state at this time, the elastic member 91 has a tendency to recover to its original length, so the restoring force of the elastic member 91 can act on the side wall of the second guide groove 232 and the first moving part 21, so that the friction between the elastic member 91 and the first moving part 21 and the friction between the elastic member 91 and the first moving part 21 are increased, so that the elastic member 91 can be kept in the position between the second guide grooves 232, reducing the possibility of the elastic member 91 sliding out of the second guide groove 232 due to gravity. The second moving part 22 can move along the second guide groove 232 to drive the elastic member 91 to move along the second guide groove 232 and enter the handle 9 located at the positioning part 1.
[0081] Such a design can facilitate the control of the installation of the elastic member 91. The first guide groove 231 can be used as the loading end of the elastic member 91, and the second guide groove 232 can be used as the installation end of the elastic member 91. The elastic member 91 is compressed and pushed to the second guide groove 232 by the first movable part 21, and the second movable part 22 pushes the elastic member 91 into the handle 9. The installation rhythm can be controlled, which can save labor requirements and improve installation efficiency, and is more in line with actual usage needs.
[0082] like Figure 1As shown, in a possible embodiment, the first mounting assembly 2 includes an extension portion 24, which is arranged on a side of the first guide portion 23 facing the positioning portion 1, and the second guide groove 232 passes through the extension portion 24. During the assembly of the handle 9, at least a portion of the extension portion 24 can be used to extend into the handle 9. Since the second guide groove 232 passes through the extension portion 24, during the installation of the elastic member 91, the elastic member 91 can be driven by the second moving portion 22 to move along the second guide groove 232 and pass through the extension portion 24 to enter the handle 9.
[0083] With such a design, the first mounting assembly 2 can be extended into the handle 9 through the extension portion 24 during the assembly of the handle 9, so as to facilitate more accurate positioning during the installation of the elastic member 91, thereby improving the installation accuracy and quality of the elastic member 91 and better meeting actual usage requirements.
[0084] like Figure 1 As shown, in a possible embodiment, the first mounting assembly 2 may include a first mounting member 25 and a second mounting member 26, the first movable portion 21 and the first guide portion 23 are mounted on the first mounting member 25, the second movable portion 22 is mounted on the second mounting member 26, and the first mounting member 25 and the second mounting member 26 can move in a direction close to or away from the positioning portion 1.
[0085] Such a design can control the distance between the first mounting component 2 and the positioning portion 1 . During production, the relative positions between the various parts of the first mounting component 2 and the positioning portion 1 can be controlled by the first mounting member 25 and the second mounting member 26 .
[0086] Before placing the handle 9 on the positioning portion 1, there is a certain distance between the first mounting assembly 2 and the positioning portion 1, so as to facilitate placing the handle 9 on the positioning portion 1. During the assembly process, the handle 9 can be placed on the positioning portion 1 manually or by an automatic loading device, and then the first guide portion 23 with the elastic member 91 is driven by the first mounting member 25 to approach the positioning portion 1, so that the extension portion 24 can extend into the handle 9. After the extension portion 24 extends into the handle 9, the second mounting member 26 drives the second moving portion 22 to move in a direction close to the positioning portion 1, so as to drive the second moving portion 22 to move along the second guide groove 232, and drive the elastic member 91 along the second guide groove 232 into the handle 9. After the elastic member 91 is installed, the first mounting member 25 and the second mounting member 26 move in a direction away from the positioning portion 1 to reset, so that the first mounting assembly 2 is separated from the positioning portion 1, thereby facilitating the subsequent assembly steps and reducing the possibility that the first mounting assembly 2 interferes with the assembly of the handle 9.
[0087] like Figure 1As shown, in a possible embodiment, the first mounting member 25 is located on a side of the second mounting member 26 close to the positioning portion 1, and the second mounting member 26 can move along with the first mounting member 25 in a direction close to or away from the positioning portion 1. When the first mounting member 25 moves into place, that is, the extension portion 24 extends into the handle 9, the second mounting member 26 moves in a direction close to the first mounting member 25, driving the second movable portion 22 to move along the second guide groove 232 to install the elastic member 91 on the handle 9.
[0088] like Figure 1 As shown, in a possible embodiment, the cooking utensil handle assembly device includes a first guide rail 3, and the positioning portion 1 is installed on the first guide rail 3 and can move along the first guide rail 3. The positioning portion 1 can move along the first guide rail 3 between a first preset position and a second preset position, that is, the positioning portion 1 can move between the first preset position and the second preset position. Figure 1 and Figure 4 When the positioning part 1 is located at the first preset position, the handle 9 can be placed on the positioning part 1, and then the positioning part 1 moves along the first guide rail 3 to the second preset position, and the elastic member 91 and other operation steps are completed at the second preset position.
[0089] This design can distinguish the positions of the step of placing the handle 9 and the step of assembling. When the handle 9 is manually loaded, safety accidents caused by the operator's mistaken contact with the first installation component 2 can be avoided, thereby improving the safety of the assembly equipment and better meeting actual usage needs.
[0090] Usually, the assembly equipment can be provided with a protective structure such as a shell (not shown in the figure) to reduce the possibility of safety accidents during the use of the assembly equipment. A corresponding window is provided in the shell, the first preset station is arranged outside the shell, and the second preset station is arranged inside the shell. When the handle 9 needs to be placed or removed, the positioning part 1 can move to the outside of the shell through the window along the first guide rail 3. During assembly, the positioning part 1 first moves to the first preset station located outside. After the handle 9 is placed, the positioning part 1 moves along the first guide rail 3 to the inside, and the elastic member 91 is installed through the first mounting assembly 2. After the installation is completed, the positioning part 1 moves along the first guide rail 3 to the first preset station, and the handle 9 is removed from the positioning part 1. Such a design can effectively isolate the internal assembly area and the outside of the assembly equipment, thereby improving the safety of the equipment. At the same time, it can also reduce the possibility of foreign matter entering the interior of the assembly equipment, causing the assembly equipment to fail to operate normally.
[0091] like Figure 5As shown, in a possible embodiment, the assembly equipment of the cooking utensil handle includes a first loading assembly 4, and the first loading assembly 4 is used to load the elastic member 91. The first loading assembly 4 includes a first loading device 41 and a first transfer device 42. The first loading assembly 4 can be a vibration plate, etc., for supplying the elastic member 91 to the first transfer device 42. The first transfer device 42 is used to transport the elastic member to the first guide portion 23. The first transfer device 42 includes a first main body 421 and a second main body 422. Along the height direction of the assembly equipment of the cooking utensil handle, the first main body 421 is located above the second main body 422, and the first main body 421 and the second main body 422 can move relative to each other. The first main body 421 includes a limiting hole 421a, and the limiting hole 421a penetrates the first main body 421 along the height direction of the assembly equipment of the cooking utensil handle. The first loading assembly 4 is used to supply the elastic member 91 to the limiting hole 421a. When relative movement occurs between the first main body 421 and the second main body 422, the second main body 422 can be used to open or close the limiting hole 421a. When the limiting hole 421a is opened, the elastic member 91 can move along the limiting hole 421a and enter the first guide groove 231 of the first guide portion 23.
[0092] This design allows the elastic member 91 to be automatically loaded, which is beneficial to improving the overall automation of the assembly equipment. It also reduces the possibility of wrong installation of the handle 9 due to the operator taking the wrong accessories, while saving labor requirements, it can also improve the assembly quality of the handle 9 and better meet the design requirements.
[0093] like Figure 6 As shown, in a possible embodiment, the assembly device of the cooking utensil handle further includes a second guide portion 5, which is located between the first transfer device 42 and the first guide portion 23, and is used to guide the elastic member 91 so that the elastic member 91 enters the first guide groove 231. The first guide portion 23 includes a notch portion 233, which is connected to the first guide groove 231. The second guide portion 5 has a guide surface 51, and the guide surface 51 can be a structure that can be used for guidance, such as an inclined surface or an arc surface. The second guide portion 5 can be located below the first transfer device 42 along the height direction of the assembly device. When the first main body 421 and the second main body 422 move relative to each other and the limiting hole 421a is opened, under the action of gravity, the elastic member 91 breaks away from the limiting portion and falls into the second guide portion 5, and then the elastic member 91 moves along the guide surface 51 to the notch portion 233, and enters the first guide groove 231 through the notch portion 233.
[0094] Through such a design, the elastic part 91 can be guided during the automatic loading process to improve the stability of the movement of the elastic part 91 during the loading process. During the loading process, the elastic part 91 can move from the first transfer device 42 to the first guide groove 231 under the action of gravity, and can be driven without additional power, thereby saving costs and better meeting actual usage needs.
[0095] like Figure 5 As shown, in a possible embodiment, the assembly device of the cooking utensil handle further includes a third moving part 6 and a second feeding assembly 7. The second feeding assembly 7 is used to supply a connecting member, which may be a pin or the like, and can be used to fix the parts in the handle 9. The third moving part 6 is used to drive the connecting member and install the connecting member on the handle 9. The connecting member includes a first connecting member, which can be used to fix the parts in the handle 9 relative to the handle body, thereby reducing the possibility that the restoring force of the elastic member 91 acts on the internal parts of the handle 9 during the installation process of the elastic member 91, causing the parts to be offset. The second feeding assembly 7 includes a second feeding device 71 and a second transfer device 72. The second feeding device 71 is used to supply the first connecting member to the second transfer device 72, and the second feeding device 71 may be a vibration plate or the like. The second feeding assembly 7 includes a second guide rail 73. The second transfer device 72 is arranged on the second guide rail 73 and can move along the second guide rail 73. When the second transfer device 72 moves along the second guide rail 73, the second transfer device 72 can move between the third preset station and the fourth preset station. When the second transfer device 72 is located at the third preset position, the second loading device 71 is used to supply the first connecting member to the second transfer device 72. When the second transfer device 72 moves to the fourth preset position, the third moving part 6 is used to drive the first connecting member to move so that the first connecting member can be installed on the handle 9.
[0096] Such a design can improve the degree of automation of the assembly of the handle 9, thereby reducing the labor demand. Moreover, the pin and the handle 9 are usually interference fit. When manual assembly is used, the labor intensity is high and it is easy to assemble incompletely. The technical solution provided in the embodiment of the present application automatically feeds the first connecting member through the first feeding device 41, and after the first connecting member is transported to the specified position by the transfer device, it is automatically assembled by the third moving part 6. The overall process has a high degree of automation, which can reduce the labor demand. At the same time, compared with the manual assembly method, the use of assembly equipment for automated production has higher production efficiency and assembly accuracy, which is more in line with actual production needs.
[0097] like Figure 5As shown, in a possible embodiment, the second loading assembly 7 includes a third loading device 74 and a third transfer device 75, the connecting member includes a second connecting member, the second connecting member can be a pin, used to fix the part of the handle 9, and the function of the second connecting member includes but is not limited to connecting the shell of the handle 9. The third loading device 74 is used to supply the second connecting member to the third transfer device 75, the second loading assembly 7 includes a third guide rail 76, the third transfer device 75 is arranged on the third guide rail 76 and can move along the third guide rail 76, when the third transfer device 75 moves along the third guide rail 76, the third transfer device 75 can move between the fifth preset station and the sixth preset station. When the third transfer device 75 is located at the fifth preset station, the third loading device 74 is used to supply the second connecting member to the third transfer device 75. When the third transfer device 75 is located at the sixth preset station, the third moving part 6 is used to drive the second connecting member to move and install the second connecting member on the handle 9.
[0098] This design can improve the automation of the assembly of the handle 9. The second loading assembly 7 can be used to assemble connectors at different positions, and the actual positions of the fourth preset station and the fifth preset station can be set according to actual needs to improve the automation of the assembly of the handle 9 and improve production efficiency.
[0099] like Figure 5 As shown, in a possible embodiment, the assembly device of the cooking utensil handle includes a fourth guide rail 8, and the third moving part 6 includes a body part 61, a first abutting part 62, and a second abutting part 63. The first abutting part 62 and the second abutting part 63 are installed on the body part 61, and the body part 61 is installed on the fourth guide rail 8 and can move along the fourth guide rail 8. When the body part 61 moves along the fourth guide rail 8, the first abutting part 62 and the second abutting part 63 are used to drive the corresponding connecting member to be installed on the handle 9.
[0100] With such a design, the first connecting member and the second connecting member can be installed by sharing the third movable part 6, thereby reducing the number of components of the overall assembly equipment, which is beneficial to optimizing the structure, reducing the volume, reducing the cost, and better meeting actual usage requirements.
[0101] In the actual production process, the handle 9 can be placed on the positioning part 1 at the first preset position first, the handle 9 can be pre-assembled to install the required parts on the handle 9, and the handle 9 can be placed on the positioning part 1 by manual or mechanical arm, and the positioning part 1 moves from the first preset position to the second preset position to transport the handle 9 to the assembly position. The second transfer device 72 loads the first connecting member through the second loading device 71 at the third preset position, and then moves to the fourth preset position. The third moving member moves along the fourth guide rail 8 and abuts against the first connecting member through the first abutment portion 62. As the third moving member continues to move along the fourth guide rail 8, the first abutment portion 62 pushes the first connecting member and installs the first connecting member to the handle 9. The first connecting member can be used to fix the parts of the handle 9 relative to the handle body 61. The elastic member 91 is transported to the first guide groove 231 by the first loading device 41 and the first transfer device 42, and the first moving part 21 moves along the first guide groove 231, compresses the elastic member 91 and drives the elastic member 91 to the second guide groove 232. The first mounting member 25 and the second mounting member 26 are lowered to make the guide part close to the handle 9. After the guide part reaches the predetermined position, the first mounting member 25 stops moving, and the second mounting member 26 continues to move downward, driving the second moving part 22 to move along the second guide groove 232, driving the elastic member 91 to enter the handle 9, so as to install the elastic member 91 on the handle 9. After the elastic member 91 is installed, the components of the assembly equipment are reset. The positioning part 1 drives the handle 9 to move from the second preset station to the first preset station, and the shell of the handle 9 is placed manually or by a mechanical arm. The positioning part 1 moves from the first preset station to the second preset station again. At this time, the second connecting member is transported by the third loading device 74 and the third transfer device 75. After the second connecting member moves to the right position, the third moving part 6 moves along the fourth guide rail 8, drives the second connecting member to move through the second abutment part 63, and installs the second connecting member on the handle 9, which is used to relatively fix the shell and the handle body. In a possible embodiment, the first connecting member can be a head pin, and the second connecting member can be a tail pin. The movement of each component in the assembly equipment can be driven by a drive member such as a cylinder.
[0102] Compared with the solution of integrally molding the handle 9 into the cooking utensil itself, designing the handle 9 to be detachable can help save space. The handle 9 can be disassembled when not in use for easy storage. However, the detachable handle 9 is usually relatively complex in structure, requires more parts, and the labor intensity of manual assembly is relatively high, and the assembly efficiency is low. Moreover, since the detachable handle 9 has more parts, it is easy to take the wrong accessories during assembly. When assembling elastic parts 91 such as springs, the elastic parts 91 need to be compressed and placed in the handle 9, which is labor-intensive for the operator. In addition, affected by the restoring force of the elastic parts 91, manual assembly is prone to the situation that the elastic parts 91 are not assembled in place, causing the elastic parts 91 to pop out, affecting the assembly efficiency and quality of the handle 9. In the process of assembling the pin to the handle 9, the connection between the pin and the handle 9 is usually an interference fit, and the labor intensity of manual assembly is relatively high, and it is easy to assemble in place, affecting the normal use of the handle 9.
[0103] The embodiment of the present application provides a solution for automatically assembling the handle 9, which is conducive to the guide part with a T-slot structure and the moving part driven by the cylinder to compress and install the elastic part 91, which can improve the assembly efficiency and the relative position accuracy of each component. At the same time, the material can be automatically loaded during the installation of the elastic part 91 and the pin, thereby avoiding the problem of using the wrong parts. The assembly equipment can be fully automatically controlled through the PLC program to realize the automatic assembly of multiple accessories.
[0104] The above describes in detail the structure, features and effects of the present application based on the embodiments shown in the drawings. The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present application, but the present application does not limit the scope of implementation to what is shown in the drawings. Any changes made in accordance with the concept of the present application, or modifications to equivalent embodiments with equivalent changes, which still do not exceed the spirit covered by the description and drawings, should be within the protection scope of the present application.
