[0027] The utility model provides a mounting mechanism for assembling an adjusting screw plug of a water level sensor, comprising: a mounting platform 10, a material supply barrel 20, a material preparation part 30 and a mounting part.

[0028] A turntable for fixing the outer shell of the water level sensor A is provided on the installation platform 10. The turntable drives the fixed outer shell of the water level sensor A to rotate to install the adjustment screw plug a at the installation part.

[0029] The material supply barrel 20 is disposed on one side of the mounting platform 10 and is communicated with the material preparation portion 30 , and is used to transport the adjusting screw plug a to the material preparation portion 30 .

[0030] In actual use, a discharge guide rail 21 is provided on the feed barrel 20, and a vibrating rotating disk and a spiral ascending ladder are provided inside the feed barrel 20. The adjusting screw plug a enters the discharge guide rail 21 along the spiral ascending ladder under the drive of the vibrating rotating disk. An air blowing hole is provided on the discharge guide rail 21; an air blowing pipe is provided at the air blowing hole, and the air outlet direction of the air blowing pipe is the same as the direction in which the adjusting screw plug a is conveyed by the discharge guide rail 21, so that the adjusting screw plug a entering the discharge guide rail 21 can be quickly conveyed along the discharge guide rail 21.

[0031] The material preparation part 30 is mainly composed of a horizontal drive, a push rod 31 and a receiving sleeve 32 .

[0032] The receiving sleeve 32 is generally configured as a rectangular box body, and a cavity is provided inside the receiving sleeve 32 to accommodate an adjusting screw plug a. A penetration hole is provided on the receiving sleeve 32, and a support plate is provided on the side of the receiving sleeve 32. The discharge guide rail 21 inputs the adjusting screw plug a into the cavity of the receiving sleeve 32, and is installed on one side of the receiving sleeve 32 by a horizontal drive, and is connected to one end of the push rod 31. The other end of the push rod 31 is located in the penetration hole, and driven by the horizontal drive, the adjusting screw plug a in the cavity is pushed out along the penetration hole onto the support plate.

[0033] Through such an arrangement, each adjusting screw plug a entering the receiving sleeve 32 can be successfully converted in the direction of transmission, thereby entering a state to be installed, so as to be directly used in the next step.

[0034] The mounting part is mounted on the mounting platform 10 and docked with the material preparation part 30 , and is used to take out the adjusting screw plug a on the material preparation part 30 and insert it into the water level adjustment hole of the water level sensor A housing.

[0035] The mounting part is mainly composed of a pressure rod 41 , a vertical drive 42 and a horizontal drive 43 .

[0036] One end of the lateral drive 43 is fixed on the mounting frame and is located above the turntable. The other end of the lateral drive 43 is connected to the vertical drive 42 and drives the vertical drive 42 to move in the horizontal direction. The top end of the pressure rod 41 is connected to the bottom of the vertical drive 42 and moves in the vertical direction driven by the vertical drive 42. The bottom end of the pressure rod 41 is used to absorb the adjusting screw plug a on the support plate.

[0037] The bottom end of the pressure rod 41 is provided with an adsorption groove, in which an adsorption hole is provided. The adsorption hole is connected with an air pump providing suction force, and the adsorption groove is connected with the adjusting screw plug a on the support plate.

[0038] By such arrangement, the pressure rod 41 moves to the top of the adjusting screw plug a under the drive of the lateral drive 43, and the vertical drive 42 drives the pressure rod 41 to move downward in the vertical direction until it forms a clamping connection with the adjusting screw plug a. The vertical drive 42 drives the pressure rod 41 and the adjusting screw plug a to move upward, and the lateral drive 43 drives the pressure rod 41 and the adjusting screw plug a to move to the turntable and to be located directly above the water level adjustment hole, and the vertical drive 42 then drives the pressure rod 41 and the adjusting screw plug a to move downward, pushing the adjusting screw plug a into the water level adjustment hole. The air pump provides suction and repulsion for the adjusting screw plug a through the adsorption hole, assisting the adjusting screw plug a in the transfer and installation process.

[0041] A sensor for detecting the passage of the adjusting screw plug a is provided at the feeding end of the discharge guide rail 21, and the sensor is electrically connected to the horizontal drive, the vertical drive 42 and the transverse drive 43. The detection result of the sensor is fed back to the controller, and the controller controls the horizontal drive, the vertical drive 42 and the transverse drive 43 to work in sequence. The entire operation process is simple, the operation is stable, and the installation of the adjusting screw plug a can be quickly realized.
