Detailed Description of the Embodiment

[0016] To make the technical solutions and advantages of the present utility model clearer, the following will further elaborate on the present utility model in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of the present application.

[0017] As Figure 1 shown, a visual automatic crimping device includes a frame 1, at least one crimping machine 21 structure 2 located on the frame 1, a front-end mechanism 3 for feeding, a clamping feeding and discharging mechanism 5 for moving the product on the front-end mechanism 3 into the crimping machine 21 structure 2, and a discharging mechanism 4 for discharging.

[0018] It should be noted that, as Figure 1 、 Figure 2 shown, the crimping machine 21 structure 2 is composed of a crimping machine 21, a visual detector 22 located on the crimping machine 21, and a backplane 23 matching the visual detector 22. The visual detector 22 performs image detection on the product to be crimped on the upper side of the backplane 23, and the detection technology and standards are executed according to the program settings, which will not be elaborated here. So that the visual detector 22 cooperates with the clamping feeding and discharging mechanism 5 to adjust the matching accuracy between the product to be crimped and the crimping machine 21 structure 2, thereby improving the crimping yield of the product.

[0019] As Figure 2 shown, the front-end mechanism 3 includes a front-end frame 31. A placement table 32 for fixing the product to be crimped is provided at the upper end of the front-end frame 31. A feeding slide rail 33 and a feeding motor 34 for driving the placement table 32 to move longitudinally back and forth are provided between the placement table 32 and the front-end frame 31. Therefore, when the feeding motor 34 drives the placement table 32 to move away from the crimping machine 21 structure 2, it is convenient for manual fixing of the product to be crimped on the front-end frame 31. Then, after the product to be crimped is fixed, the feeding motor 34 drives the placement table 32 to move to one end of the crimping machine 21 structure 2, so as to cooperate with the clamping feeding and discharging mechanism 5 to achieve feeding.

[0020] Meanwhile, the discharging mechanism 4 includes a discharging frame 41 and a conveyor belt 42 fixed to the top of the discharging frame 41. The conveyor belt 42 is connected with a conveyor driving motor 43 for driving it to move forward. A moving mechanism 6 is provided on the frame 1. The moving mechanism 6 is connected to the clamping feeding and discharging mechanism 5 and is used to drive the clamping feeding and discharging mechanism 5 to move horizontally and longitudinally.

[0021] It should be mentioned that a driving unit for driving the crimping machine 21 structure 2 to perform linear movement longitudinally back and forth is provided at the bottom of the frame 1 to further improve the cooperation effect between the crimping machine 21 structure 2 and the clamping feeding and discharging mechanism 5.

[0022] As shown Figure 2 in the figure, the moving mechanism 6 includes columns 61 fixed to the left and right sides of the frame 1. Longitudinal moving rails 62 are provided on both of the columns 61 on both sides, and a transverse moving rail 63 with both ends located on the corresponding longitudinal moving rails 62 is provided between the columns 61 on both sides. The clamping feeding and discharging mechanism 5 is slidably connected to the transverse moving rail 63. A baffle 65 for protecting the longitudinal moving rail 62 is provided at the top of the column 61. Among them, a longitudinal moving motor 621 for driving the transverse moving rail 63 to reciprocate along the length direction of the longitudinal moving rail 62 is provided at one end of the longitudinal moving rail 62, and a transverse moving motor 64 for driving the clamping feeding and discharging mechanism 5 to reciprocate along the length direction of the transverse moving rail 63 is provided at one end of the transverse moving rail 63, so as to improve the driving stability and diversity of the clamping feeding and discharging mechanism 5.

[0023] Meanwhile, the clamping feeding and discharging mechanism 5 includes a fixed bracket 51 slidably connected to the transverse moving rail 63. A lifting rail 52 is connected to the fixed bracket 51, a clamping manipulator 53 slidably connected to the lifting rail 52, and a lifting driving motor 511 for driving the clamping manipulator 53 to reciprocate along the length direction of the lifting rail 52. Therefore, the effect of effectively driving the lifting clamping manipulator 53 is achieved under the drive of the lifting driving motor 511.

[0024] In summary, the present application provides a visual automatic crimping device. The visual automatic crimping device realizes the detection of the crimping operation through the cooperation of the visual detector 22 and the back plate 23 in each crimping machine 21 structure, and then performs position correction processing through the clamping manipulator 53 to improve the crimping accuracy; meanwhile, the cooperation of the clamping manipulator 53 with the driving operation of the moving mechanism 6, the feeding cooperation of the front mechanism 3, and the discharging of the discharging mechanism 4 will significantly improve the operation safety and effectively reduce the manual work intensity, so as to achieve the effect of improving the production efficiency and product yield.
