[0002] Hoses are commonly used for transporting fluids, and fasteners need to be provided at their ends for easy connection to other pipeline equipment.

[0063] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions of the present disclosure, the following provides a detailed, clear, and complete description of the present disclosure in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present disclosure and are not used to limit the present disclosure
[0064] In the description of the present application, if the first and second are described only for the purpose of distinguishing technical features, they should not be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the quantity of the indicated technical features or implicitly indicating the sequence of the indicated technical features
[0065] Those skilled in the art should understand that in the disclosure of the present application, the orientation or positional relationship indicated by the terms "longitudinal", "transverse", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc. is based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. It is only for the convenience of describing the present application and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the indicated device or element must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, the above terms should not be understood as limiting the present application
[0066] The following further elaborates on this application in conjunction with the attached drawings. Refer to Figures 1 to 25 the description below.
[0067] This application provides an automated production line 1 for hose swaging, which offers a complete automated production line for the swaging of hose end fittings. It includes hose loading, hose cleaning, fitting inspection, fitting installation, fitting swaging, dust cap assembly, and sorting of the final products. Workstations are set up for each process required for hose swaging. One production line has all the production processes, and the workstations are interconnected, thus reducing the labor demand and labor costs, and greatly improving the production efficiency.
[0068] Specifically, as Figure 1 shown, the automated production line 1 for hose swaging includes a master control device, a conveying device 11, a cleaning device 12, a rubber stripping device 13, a fitting installation device 14, a fitting swaging device 15, a dust cap assembly device 16, and a blanking device 17. The conveying device 11 includes a conveyor 11.1 and a tooling tray 11.2. The tooling tray 11.2 is arranged on the conveyor 11.1 and is used for assembling hoses. A plurality of tooling trays 11.2 are provided on one conveyor 11.1. One end of the conveyor 11.1 is the loading end, and the other end is the blanking end. The conveyor 11.1 is used to convey the work trays from the loading end to the blanking end. Among them, the cleaning device 12, the rubber stripping device 13, the fitting installation device 14, the fitting swaging device 15, the dust cap assembly device 16, and the blanking device 17 are sequentially arranged at intervals from the loading end to the blanking end of the conveyor 11.1, that is, each device is arranged at intervals along the conveying direction of the conveyor 11.1 according to the hose swaging process. When transported to the corresponding workstation, the conveyor 11.1 will pause to facilitate the devices at each workstation to perform corresponding operations on the hose. At the same time, the devices at each workstation are networked with the master control device, and each workstation transmits the detected information to the master control device. Based on the received information, the master control device marks the hose to facilitate subsequent sorting of the hose by the blanking device 17.
[0069] In this embodiment, as Figure 2As shown, a limiting mechanism 11.3 is provided on the tooling tray 11.2. The limiting mechanism 11.3 is arranged on one side of the tooling tray 11.2 and is used to clamp the port of the rubber hose so that the rubber hose can be fixed relative to the tooling tray 11.2. The number of the limiting mechanisms 11.3 corresponds to the number of ports of a set of rubber hoses that need to be installed with clamping parts. In this application, the ports at both ends of the rubber hose need to be installed with clamping parts. Therefore, two sets of limiting mechanisms 11.3 are provided to clamp both ends of the rubber hose respectively. The cleaning device 12, the rubber stripping device 13, the clamping part installation device 14, the clamping part clamping device 15 and the dust cap assembly device 16 are correspondingly arranged on the opposite side of the rubber hose port for easy operation on the rubber hose port.
[0070] As Figure 1 , Figure 2 shown, this application also provides a rubber hose positioning mechanism 11.4, a loading station and a rubber hose elevator 18. The rubber hose elevator 18 is located at the loading end of the conveyor 11.1. The rubber hose elevator 18 can temporarily store multiple rubber hoses and lift the rubber hoses to the table for easy access by the staff. The rubber hose elevator 18 is used for loading rubber hoses onto the entire automatic rubber hose clamping production line 1. The staff place the rubber hoses on the tooling tray 11.2 of the conveyor 11.1 at the loading station. The rubber hose positioning mechanism 11.4 is arranged at the side end of the conveyor 11.1. When the rubber hose is clamped by the limiting mechanism 11.3, the end of the rubber hose needs to be flush with the rubber hose positioning mechanism 11.4 to ensure that the rubber hoses on each tooling tray 11.2 are installed in place for subsequent processing of the rubber hoses at each station.
[0071] Specifically, as Figure 2 shown, the rubber hose positioning mechanism 11.4 includes a positioning plate. The positioning plate is arranged in the vertical direction. When the port of the rubber hose needs to fit with the positioning plate, it indicates that the installation position of the rubber hose is correct. The positioning plate plays an auxiliary prompting role in the installation position of the rubber hose to facilitate the staff to accurately install the rubber hose.
[0072] In an optional embodiment of this application, the cleaning device 12 is further described; as Figure 1 , Figures 3 to 7As shown in the figure; the cleaning device 12 includes a first mounting base 12.4, a sponge ball feeding mechanism 12.2 and a bullet shooting mechanism 12.1. The sponge ball feeding mechanism 12.2 and the bullet shooting mechanism 12.1 are both mounted on the first mounting base 12.4. The hose to be cleaned is transported to the cleaning station of the cleaning device 12 through the conveying device 11. The hose to be cleaned includes a feeding end and a discharging end. The sponge ball feeding mechanism 12.2 is used to place the sponge at the feeding port of the hose, and the bullet shooting mechanism 12.1 is used to introduce air into the feeding end of the hose. The gas drives the sponge to move inside the hose, so that the sponge moves from the feeding end towards the discharging end. When the sponge ball moves from the feeding end towards the discharging end of the hose, the sponge ball will take away the dust attached to the inner wall of the hose. At the same time, the high-pressure gas of the bullet shooting mechanism 12.1 will perform secondary cleaning on the inner wall of the hose, thus completing the cleaning of the hose. The hose cleaning device 12 of the present application can realize the automatic cleaning of the inside of the hose pipeline, thereby improving the work efficiency and effectively saving resources.
[0073] Specifically, as Figure 3 , Figure 6 shown, the sponge ball feeding mechanism 12.2 includes a sponge ball feeding gripper 12.3. The sponge ball feeding gripper 12.3 is arranged on the tabletop of the first mounting base 12.4. The sponge ball feeding gripper 12.3 is used to grasp the sponge ball and transport the sponge ball from the storage place to the feeding end of the hose. Among them, the sponge ball feeding gripper 12.3 is provided with clamping jaws for clamping the sponge ball.
[0074] Among them, as Figure 5 shown, at least one clamping part is provided on the clamping jaws of the sponge ball feeding gripper 12.3. The clamping part is used to clamp the sponge ball or the hose. In the present application, the clamping jaws of the sponge ball feeding gripper 12.3 are provided with a first clamping part and a second clamping part. The first clamping part and the second clamping part are arranged at intervals. Among them, the first clamping part is used to clamp the hose, and the second clamping part is used to clamp the sponge ball. In this embodiment, the first clamping plate and the second clamping plate are in a rectangular inverted U-shaped structure. The two downwardly protruding ends of the first clamping plate and the second clamping plate form the first clamping part and the second clamping part. The first clamping plate and the second clamping plate have the same structure and can be made by the same mold, saving the manufacturing cost. When the sponge ball feeding mechanism 12.2 feeds the hose, the second clamping part of the clamping jaws of the sponge ball feeding gripper 12.3 first clamps the sponge ball, and then moves to the feeding end of the hose. The first clamping part clamps the hose, so that the sponge ball clamped by the second clamping part can be accurately located at the port of the feeding end. The function of the first clamping part is to enable the second clamping part to achieve positioning.
[0075] In this embodiment, as Figure 5As shown, the bullet shooting mechanism 12.1 includes a support bracket 12.12, an air supply member 12.13 and a bullet shooting driving member 12.14. The support bracket 12.12 is arranged on the tabletop of the first mounting base 12.4. The support bracket 12.12 is in a rectangular to N-shaped structure. The air supply member 12.13 and the bullet shooting driving member 12.14 are arranged on the upper end surface of the support bracket 12.12. The support bracket 12.12 is used to raise the air supply member 12.13 and the bullet shooting driving member 12.14 so that the air supply member 12.13 can be opposite to the feeding end of the rubber tube, thereby accurately injecting gas into the rubber tube. Among them, the front end of the bullet shooting driving member 12.14 is connected to the air supply member 12.13. The bullet shooting driving member 12.14 is used to drive the air supply member 12.13 to move. The front end of the air supply member 12.13 is an air gun nozzle. When the air supply member 12.13 is in the initial position, there is a distance between the end of the air supply member 12.13 and the feeding end of the rubber tube. The bullet shooting driving member 12.14 can drive the air supply member 12.13 to move towards the feeding end of the rubber tube, thereby pushing the sponge ball into the rubber tube and then injecting gas, so as to clean the inside of the rubber tube pipeline.
[0076] In the embodiment, there is also a discharge detection mechanism (not shown in the figure). The discharge detection mechanism is arranged on one side of the discharge end of the rubber tube. It can be arranged on the first mounting base 12.4 and is used to detect whether the sponge ball is discharged from the discharge end of the rubber tube. Among them, the discharge detection mechanism can adopt detection components such as infrared sensors. It monitors the discharge end of the rubber tube. When the sponge ball is flushed out of the discharge end of the rubber tube by gas, the discharge detection mechanism can detect the discharge of the sponge ball, thereby assisting the sponge ball feeding mechanism 12.2 and the bullet shooting mechanism 12.1 to provide result feedback on whether the sponge ball is discharged, so that the cleaning device 12 realizes automatic feeding, air injection and result detection. If the sponge ball is not discharged, information can be sent to the total control to instruct the bullet shooting mechanism 12.1 to continue to inject air to discharge the sponge ball, or mark the rubber tube so that the subsequent staff can process the rubber tube to avoid sponges remaining in the rubber tube pipeline. It should be noted that in this embodiment, the axis of the air supply member 12.13 is on the same straight line as the axis of the feeding end of the rubber tube, so that the air supply member 12.13 can accurately supply air to the rubber tube.
[0077] Furthermore, the cleaning device 12 is further improved. The rubber tube cleaning device 12 further includes a sponge ball feeding mechanism 12.5. The sponge ball feeding mechanism 12.5 is connected to the first mounting base 12.4. The sponge ball feeding mechanism 12.5 is integrally arranged on the left side of the sponge ball feeding mechanism 12.2. The sponge ball feeding mechanism 12.5 is used to supply materials to the sponge ball feeding mechanism 12.2. Specifically, as Figures 3 to 6As shown in the figure, the sponge ball feeding mechanism 12.5 includes a sponge ball vibrating table 12.11, a sponge ball temporary storage table 12.10, and a sponge ball elevator 12.9. The sponge ball vibrating table 12.11 is arranged on the tabletop of the first mounting seat 12.4. The sponge ball vibrating table 12.11 has a vibrating part and a feeding part. The vibrating part is located at the lower end of the feeding part. The vibrating part is used to generate vibration so that the sponge balls on the feeding part can be vibrated and arranged at intervals, facilitating the precise grasping of sponge balls by the sponge ball loading gripper 12.3.
[0078] As Figure 6 shown in the figure, the sponge ball temporary storage table 12.10 is arranged on the tabletop of the first mounting seat 12.4. The sponge ball elevator 12.9 is provided with a relatively large storage space to accommodate more sponge balls, thereby reducing the number of refilling times. The sponge ball elevator 12.9 is arranged at the rear end of the first mounting seat 12.4, making the connection flexibility between the sponge ball elevator 12.9 and the first mounting seat 12.4 relatively high, facilitating the feeding operation or maintenance of the sponge ball elevator 12.9. The sponge ball elevator 12.9 can transport materials onto the sponge ball temporary storage table 12.10. The feeding port of the sponge ball temporary storage table 12.10 is opposite to the discharging port of the sponge ball elevator 12.9. The discharging port of the sponge ball elevator 12.9 is higher than the sponge ball temporary storage table 12.10. The materials transported out of the sponge ball elevator 12.9 directly fall onto the sponge ball temporary storage table 12.10. The sponge ball temporary storage table 12.10 is higher than the sponge ball vibrating table 12.11. The bottom of the sponge ball temporary storage table 12.10 is also provided with a vibrating part, which can vibrate the sponge ball temporary storage table 12.10 so that the sponge balls on the sponge ball temporary storage table 12.10 can be vibrated into the sponge ball vibrating table 12.11. The discharging port of the sponge ball temporary storage table 12.10 is opposite to the feeding port of the sponge ball vibrating table 12.11. A guide plate is arranged at the discharging end of the sponge ball temporary storage table 12.10. The guide plate is inclined downward. The guide plate can guide the materials on the sponge ball temporary storage table 12.10 into the sponge ball vibrating table 12.11 more orderly. Compared with the sponge ball vibrating table 12.11, the sponge ball temporary storage table 12.10 can temporarily store the sponge balls transported out by the sponge ball elevator 12.9, providing a feeding buffer time for the sponge ball elevator 12.9 to ensure the uninterrupted supply of sponge balls. On the other hand, the sponge ball temporary storage table 12.10 vibrates the sponge balls first, which can disperse the stacked sponge balls and prepare in advance for the sponge balls to enter the sponge ball temporary storage table 12.10. So that when the sponge balls enter the sponge ball vibrating table 12.11, the sponge balls in the sponge ball vibrating table 12.11 can be laid flat on the sponge ball vibrating table 12.11 without stacking, facilitating the sponge ball loading gripper 12.3 to pick up the sponge balls.
[0079] Further, as Figure 3 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 6As shown, the sponge ball feeding mechanism 12.2 further includes a sponge ball vision detection component 12.8 and a first mounting support 12.15. The first mounting support 12.15 is arranged on the tabletop of the first mounting base 12.4, and the sponge ball vision detection component 12.8 is arranged on the first mounting support 12.15. The first mounting support 12.15 is of an inverted L-shaped structure, which is used to lift and support the sponge ball vision detection component 12.8, so that the sponge ball vision detection component 12.8 is located above the sponge ball vibrating table 12.11. The sponge ball vision detection component 12.8 is used to detect and position the sponge balls in the sponge ball vibrating table 12.11, and provide the coordinates of each sponge ball in the sponge ball vibrating table 12.11 to the sponge ball feeding gripper 12.3. The sponge ball feeding gripper 12.3 locates based on the sponge ball coordinate positioning information, so as to accurately grasp the sponge balls in the sponge ball vibrating table 12.11. The sponge ball vision detection component 12.8 can adopt sensing elements such as vision sensors. With the cooperation of the sponge ball vision detection component 12.8, the sponge ball feeding mechanism 12.2 can accurately grasp the sponge balls, improving the work efficiency.
[0080] Further, as Figure 3 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 7 shown, the hose cleaning device 12 includes a first hose fixing component 12.6. The first hose fixing component 12.6 is arranged on the tabletop of the first mounting base 12.4. The first hose fixing component 12.6 is arranged in two groups, and the two groups of the first hose fixing components 12.6 are arranged at intervals. One of them is used to clamp the feeding end of the hose, and the other is used to clamp the discharging end of the hose. With the cooperation of the two groups of the first hose fixing components 12.6, the feeding end and the discharging end of the hose are clamped, so that the feeding end and the discharging end of the hose are fixed relative to the first mounting base 12.4. When the sponge ball feeding mechanism 12.2 and the bullet shooting mechanism 12.1 feed materials and introduce air into the hose, the hose can remain relatively stable, and the feeding end and the discharging end of the hose will not come off under the impact of the gas, which can ensure the working stability and improve the safety guarantee.
[0081] Specifically, as Figure 7 shown, the first hose fixing component 12.6 includes a connecting bracket 12.17, a positioning driving part 12.18 and a clamp 12.16. The connecting bracket 12.17 is arranged on the tabletop of the first mounting base 12.4, and the connecting bracket 12.17 is fixedly connected to the first mounting base 12.4 by bolts or welding; the connecting bracket 12.17 is of an L-shaped structure, the bottom of the connecting bracket 12.17 is connected to the tabletop of the first mounting base 12.4, the positioning driving part 12.18 is connected to the vertical plate of the connecting bracket 12.17, the positioning driving part 12.18 is connected to the clamp 12.16, and the positioning driving part 12.18 is used to drive the clamp 12.16 to open and close, so as to realize the clamping and releasing of the hose.
[0082] As shown Figure 7 in the figure, the fixture 12.16 includes a first clamping block 12.19 and a second clamping block 12.20. The first clamping block 12.19 and the second clamping block 12.20 are arranged oppositely. Clamping grooves are provided on the first clamping block 12.19 and the second clamping block 12.20. The first clamping block 12.19 and the second clamping block 12.20 cooperate to clamp the rubber hose. Among them, the first clamping block 12.19 and the second clamping block 12.20 can rotate in the vertical direction. When the fixture 12.16 is opened, as shown Figure 5 by the dashed line marking in the figure, the included angle between the first clamping block 12.19 and the second clamping block 12.20 is larger, and the first clamping block 12.19 and the second clamping block 12.20 rotate towards both sides; when the fixture 12.16 is closed, the first clamping block 12.19 and the second clamping block 12.20 rotate towards each other, and the first clamping block 12.19 and the second clamping block 12.20 rotate upwards towards the center of the connecting bracket 12.17, and the gap between the first clamping block 12.19 and the second clamping block 12.20 is smaller to clamp the rubber hose.
[0083] Furthermore, as shown Figures 3 to 5 in the figure, the rubber hose cleaning device 12 further includes a sponge ball recycling mechanism 12.7. The sponge ball recycling mechanism 12.7 is arranged on the first mounting seat 12.4. The sponge ball recycling mechanism 12.7 is arranged on the right side of the sponge ball feeding mechanism 12.2. The sponge ball recycling mechanism 12.7 is provided with a recycling port, and the recycling port is opposite to the discharge end of the rubber hose. The sponge ball recycling mechanism 12.7 and the first mounting seat 12.4 are detachably connected. A receiving space is provided inside the sponge ball recycling mechanism 12.7, which can store the sponge balls discharged from the rubber hose, thus avoiding the random flying of sponge balls and realizing the recycling of sponge balls for repeated use. In this embodiment, the discharge detection mechanism can be arranged on the sponge ball recycling mechanism 12.7 to facilitate the detection of the discharge of sponge balls from the rubber hose.
[0084] As shown Figure 1 in the figure, after the cleaning device 12 finishes cleaning the rubber hose, the discharge detection mechanism transmits the detected information to the total control device, and the total control device marks whether the cleaning of the rubber hose is completed; if the sponge balls in the rubber hose are not ejected, the total control device controls the devices in the subsequent processes not to operate on the rubber hose, and if the sponge balls in the rubber hose are ejected, the devices in the subsequent processes execute the operations on the rubber hose according to the program; among them, after the cleaning device 12 finishes operating on the rubber hose, the conveying device 11 conveys the rubber hose to the working position of the rubber hose stripping device 13.
[0085] In another alternative embodiment of the present application, the rubber hose stripping device 13 is further described; as shown Figures 8 to 11As shown, the degumming device 13 of the present application is used for degumming the rubber tube and detecting the degumming quality. The conveying device 11 conveys the rubber tube to be degummed to the working station of the degumming structure 13.1. The degumming structure 13.1 first degums the rubber tube, and the degummed rubber tube is then conveyed by the conveying device 11 to the detection station of the degumming detection mechanism 13.2. The degumming detection mechanism 13.2 detects the degumming quality of the degummed part of the rubber tube, so as to determine whether the degumming result is qualified. The degumming device 13 of the present application can realize the functions of automatic degumming and detection, reduce the high demand for labor, save labor costs and improve work efficiency.
[0086] Specifically, a further description is made of the degumming structure 13.1; as Figure 9 shown, the degumming structure 13.1 includes a second mounting base 13.3, a degumming machine 13.4, a degumming feeding assembly 13.5 and a second rubber tube fixing assembly 13.6. The degumming machine 13.4 and the degumming feeding assembly 13.5 of the degumming structure 13.1 are arranged on the tabletop of the second mounting base 13.3. The second mounting base 13.3 is used to support and elevate the degumming machine 13.4 and the degumming feeding assembly 13.5, so that the degumming feeding assembly 13.5 and the degumming machine 13.4 can be aligned with the rubber tube on the conveying device 11, so that the degumming feeding assembly 13.5 can accurately feed the rubber tube into the degumming machine 13.4; the degumming machine 13.4 is used for automatically degumming the rubber tube. In this embodiment, the degumming machine 13.4 adopts a gravity ball type degumming machine 13.4, and the feeding port of the degumming machine 13.4 faces the rubber tube side; the second rubber tube fixing assembly 13.6 is located between the conveying device 11 and the degumming machine 13.4. When the conveying device 11 transports the rubber tube to the degumming station, the second rubber tube fixing assembly 13.6 can clamp the rubber tube; the second rubber tube fixing assembly 13.6 is arranged on the degumming feeding assembly 13.5. The degumming feeding assembly 13.5 is located between the conveying device 11 and the degumming machine 13.4. The degumming feeding assembly 13.5 can drive the second rubber tube fixing assembly 13.6 to move between the conveying device 11 and the degumming machine 13.4. When degumming is required, the degumming feeding assembly 13.5 drives the second rubber tube fixing assembly 13.6 to move towards the degumming machine 13.4 to cooperate with the degumming machine 13.4 to degum the rubber tube, so that the degumming length of the rubber tube gradually increases; when degumming is completed, the degumming feeding assembly 13.5 drives the second rubber tube fixing assembly 13.6 to move towards the conveying device 11, so that the rubber tube exits from the degumming machine 13.4 and the rubber tube is reset; the degumming feeding assembly 13.5 cooperates with the second rubber tube fixing assembly 13.6 to complete automatic feeding, eliminating the need for manual feeding, reducing labor requirements, improving work efficiency and reducing costs.
[0087] A further description is made of the stripping feed assembly 13.5. In this embodiment, the stripping feed assembly 13.5 includes a transmission member and a feed driving member (not shown in the figure). The feed driving member is connected to the mounting base. The feed driving member is a servo motor. The feed driving member can be arranged inside the second mounting seat 13.3 or on the tabletop of the second mounting seat 13.3. The feed driving member is connected to the transmission member. One end of the transmission member away from the feed driving member is connected to the second rubber tube fixing assembly 13.6. The transmission member is used to convert the rotational force of the feed driving member into a linear driving force of the second rubber tube fixing assembly 13.6, so that the second rubber tube fixing assembly 13.6 can move in a straight line direction.
[0088] In this embodiment, the transmission member is a lead screw. The rotating shaft of the feed driving member is fixedly connected to the lead screw. The second rubber tube fixing assembly 13.6 is in threaded rotation connection with the lead screw. When the feed driving member operates, the lead screw rotates, and the second rubber tube fixing assembly 13.6 moves along the lead screw. The length extension direction of the lead screw is parallel to the feed direction of the stripping machine 13.4. Therefore, the second rubber tube fixing assembly 13.6 can move between the conveying device 11 and the stripping machine 13.4 to adjust the feed length of the rubber tube.
[0089] Further, as Figure 11 shown, the stripping feed assembly 13.5 further includes a stripping feed guide rail 13.7 and a stripping feed slider 13.8. The bottom of the stripping feed guide rail 13.7 is arranged on the tabletop of the second mounting seat 13.3. The stripping feed guide rail 13.7 is located between the conveying device 11 and the stripping machine 13.4. The stripping feed guide rail 13.7 is fixedly connected to the tabletop of the second mounting seat 13.3. The length extension direction of the stripping feed guide rail 13.7 is parallel to the length extension direction of the lead screw. The stripping feed slider 13.8 is connected to the stripping feed guide rail 13.7. The stripping feed slider 13.8 is slidably connected to the stripping feed guide rail 13.7. The stripping feed slider 13.8 is fixedly connected to the second rubber tube fixing assembly 13.6. When the feed driving member drives the second rubber tube fixing assembly 13.6 to move, the stripping feed slider 13.8 slides along the stripping feed guide rail 13.7. The arrangement of the stripping feed guide rail 13.7 and the stripping feed slider 13.8 can ensure the stability of the movement of the second rubber tube fixing assembly 13.6. It should be noted that in this embodiment, the structure of the second rubber tube fixing assembly 13.6 is the same as that of the first rubber tube fixing assembly 12.6, and will not be elaborated here.
[0090] On the basis of any of the above embodiments, a further expansion is made to the stripping detection mechanism 13.2. As Figure 10 、 Figure 11As shown in the figure, the degumming detection mechanism 13.2 includes a first degumming detection component 13.9 and / or a second degumming detection component 13.10. Among them, the first degumming detection component 13.9 is used to detect the degumming length and the outer diameter of the skeleton layer at the degumming part of the rubber hose, and the second degumming detection component 13.10 is used to detect whether the degumming part of the rubber hose is wound with rubber sheets. That is, the degumming detection mechanism 13.2 can be provided with only the first degumming detection component 13.9, or only include the second degumming detection component 13.10, or include both the first degumming detection component 13.9 and the second degumming detection component 13.10 at the same time. In actual use, different setting methods can be selected according to actual needs. In this embodiment, the degumming detection mechanism 13.2 includes the first degumming detection component 13.9 and the second degumming detection component 13.10, which can comprehensively detect the degumming result of the rubber hose, improve the detection efficiency, and facilitate the subsequent high-quality control of the rubber hose.
[0091] Specifically, as Figure 9 shown in the figure, the degumming detection mechanism 13.2 further includes a first degumming detection mounting support 13.11. The first degumming detection component 13.9 is arranged on the first degumming detection mounting support 13.11. The first degumming detection mounting support 13.11 is used to support and elevate the first degumming detection component 13.9, and the first degumming detection mounting support 13.11 is of a rectangular frame structure. The first degumming detection component 13.9 includes a first degumming detection mounting bracket 13.13, a first degumming detection condenser plate 13.14 and a first degumming detection camera device 13.15. The bottom of the first degumming detection mounting bracket 13.13 is connected to the first degumming detection mounting support 13.11. The first degumming detection camera device 13.15 and the first degumming detection condenser plate 13.14 are connected to the first degumming detection mounting bracket 13.13. The first degumming detection condenser plate 13.14 and the first degumming detection camera device 13.15 are arranged at intervals in the vertical direction. Among them, the first degumming detection condenser plate 13.14 is located below the first degumming detection camera device 13.15. The first degumming detection condenser plate 13.14 is provided with a light-gathering aperture. The first degumming detection camera device 13.15 takes a picture of the degumming part of the rubber hose through the light-gathering aperture. After the first degumming detection camera device 13.15 takes a picture of the degumming part of the rubber hose, it uploads it to the background device. The background device makes a judgment through the taken picture to determine whether the degumming length and the outer diameter of the skeleton layer at the degumming part of the rubber hose meet the conditions, and then the background device marks whether the rubber hose is qualified or not, so as to facilitate the subsequent rejection of unqualified products. In this embodiment, the first degumming detection condenser plate 13.14 can play a role of light-gathering and anti-interference for the first degumming detection camera device 13.15, improve the accuracy of the first degumming detection camera device 13.15 for taking pictures of the rubber hose, and improve the accuracy of subsequent judgment on whether the degumming of the rubber hose is qualified.
[0092] Furthermore, asFigure 12 As shown, the first degumming detection mounting bracket 13.13 includes a first support rail 13.16 and a second support rail 13.17. The first support rail 13.16 is arranged on the first degumming detection mounting seat 13.11. The length extension direction of the first support rail 13.16 is parallel to the degumming feed guide rail 13.7. The second support rail 13.17 is detachably connected to the first support rail 13.16. An adjusting seat is provided at the bottom of the first support rail 13.16. The first support rail 13.16 is connected to the second support rail 13.17 through the adjusting seat. Among them, an adjusting bolt is provided on the adjusting seat. The turning-in depth of the adjusting bolt can change the connection tightness between the adjusting seat and the first support rail 13.16. Then, by moving the position of the adjusting seat on the first support rail 13.16, the position of the second support rail 13.17 on the first support rail 13.16 can be changed, that is, the distance between the first degumming detection camera device 13.15 and the conveying device 11 can be changed. In the actual use process, for different lengths of rubber hoses, the different positions of the second support rail 13.17 on the first support rail 13.16 can be adjusted to reach the best shooting position for the degumming part of the rubber hose, improving the detection flexibility.
[0093] Moreover, the first degumming detection condenser plate 13.14 and the first degumming detection camera device 13.15 are both detachably connected to the second support rail 13.17 through the adjusting seat. Thus, through the adjusting seat, the setting positions of the first degumming detection condenser plate 13.14 and the first degumming detection camera device 13.15 on the second support rail 13.17 can be adjusted, that is, the setting heights of the first degumming detection condenser plate 13.14 and the first degumming detection camera device 13.15 can be controlled. Then, in the actual use process, according to different rubber hoses and detection requirements, the heights of the first degumming detection condenser plate 13.14 and the first camera device can be accurately adjusted to reach the best shooting position, improving the detection flexibility and applicability.
[0094] Such as Figure 12As shown, the rubber stripping detection mechanism 13.2 further includes a second rubber stripping detection mounting support 13.12. The second rubber stripping detection assembly 13.10 is arranged on the second rubber stripping detection mounting support 13.12. The second rubber stripping detection mounting support 13.12 is used to support and elevate the second rubber stripping detection assembly 13.10, and the second rubber stripping detection mounting support 13.12 is of a rectangular frame structure; the second rubber stripping detection assembly 13.10 includes a second rubber stripping detection mounting bracket 13.18, a second rubber stripping detection condenser plate 13.19 and a second rubber stripping detection camera device 13.20. The bottom of the second rubber stripping detection mounting bracket 13.18 is connected to the second rubber stripping detection mounting support 13.12. The second rubber stripping detection camera device 13.20 and the second rubber stripping detection condenser plate 13.19 are connected to the second rubber stripping detection mounting bracket 13.18. The second rubber stripping detection condenser plate 13.19 and the second rubber stripping detection camera device 13.20 are arranged at intervals in the vertical direction. Among them, the second rubber stripping detection condenser plate 13.19 is located below the second rubber stripping detection camera device 13.20. A light gathering aperture is provided on the second rubber stripping detection condenser plate 13.19. The second rubber stripping detection camera device 13.20 takes a picture of the rubber tube through the light gathering aperture. After the second rubber stripping detection camera device 13.20 takes a picture of the rubber stripping part of the rubber tube, it uploads it to the background device. The background device makes a judgment through the taken picture to determine whether the rubber stripping part of the rubber tube is wound with rubber skin, and then the background device marks whether the rubber tube is qualified or not, so as to facilitate the subsequent elimination of unqualified products; in this embodiment, the second rubber stripping detection condenser plate 13.19 can play a role of light gathering and anti-interference for the second rubber stripping detection camera device 13.20, improve the accuracy of the second rubber stripping detection camera device 13.20 for taking pictures of the rubber tube, and improve the accuracy of subsequent judgment of whether the rubber stripping of the rubber tube is qualified.
[0095] Further, as Figure 12As shown in the figure, the second debonding detection mounting bracket 13.18 includes a third support rail 13.21 and a fourth support rail 13.22. The third support rail 13.21 is disposed on the second debonding detection mounting seat 13.12. The length extension direction of the third support rail 13.21 is parallel to the debonding feed guide rail 13.7. The fourth support rail 13.22 is detachably connected to the third support rail 13.21. An adjusting seat is provided at the bottom of the third support rail 13.21. The third support rail 13.21 is connected to the fourth support rail 13.22 through the adjusting seat. Among them, an adjusting bolt is provided on the adjusting seat. The turning-in depth of the adjusting bolt can change the connection tightness between the adjusting seat and the third support rail 13.21. Then, by moving the position of the adjusting seat on the third support rail 13.21, the position of the fourth support rail 13.22 on the third support rail 13.21 can be changed, that is, the distance between the first camera and the conveying device 11 can be changed. In the actual use process, for different hose lengths, the different positions of the fourth support rail 13.22 on the third support rail 13.21 can be adjusted to achieve the best shooting position for the debonding part of the hose, improving the detection flexibility.
[0096] Moreover, the second debonding detection condenser plate 13.19 and the second debonding detection camera device 13.20 are both detachably connected to the fourth support rail 13.22 through the adjusting seat. Thus, the setting positions of the second debonding detection condenser plate 13.19 and the second debonding detection camera device 13.20 on the fourth support rail 13.22 can be adjusted through the adjusting seat, that is, the setting heights of the second debonding detection condenser plate 13.19 and the second debonding detection camera device 13.20 can be regulated. Then, in the actual use process, according to different hoses and detection requirements, the heights of the second debonding detection condenser plate 13.19 and the first camera device can be accurately adjusted to achieve the best shooting position, improving the detection flexibility and applicability.
[0097] It should be noted that in this application, the setting quantities of the debonding detection mechanism 13.2 and the debonding mechanism 13.1 can be changed according to actual needs. When the hose is a single tube and only one end needs to be debonded, the debonding detection mechanism 13.2 and the debonding mechanism 13.1 can be correspondingly set to one set. When the hose is a long tube and both ends need to be debonded, the debonding detection mechanism 13.2 and the debonding mechanism 13.1 can be correspondingly set to two sets; in addition, the quantities of the debonding detection mechanism 13.2 and the debonding mechanism 13.1 can also be flexibly set according to the quantity processed at one time. In this application, the debonding detection mechanism 13.2 and the debonding mechanism 13.1 are correspondingly set to two sets.
[0098] Such as Figure 1As shown, after the debonding device 13 debonds the rubber hose and completes the detection, the debonding detection mechanism 13.2 transmits the detected information to the master control device, and the master control device marks whether the debonding quality of the rubber hose is qualified; if the debonding quality of the rubber hose is unqualified, the master control device controls the devices in the subsequent processes not to operate on the rubber hose. If the debonding quality of the rubber hose is qualified, the devices in the subsequent processes operate on the rubber hose according to the procedure; among them, after the debonding device 13 finishes operating on the rubber hose, the conveying device 11 conveys the rubber hose to the working position of the ferrule installation device 14 for the assembly of the ferrule. Since the rubber hose of the present application has two ports that need to be operated, when one end of a rubber hose is detected to be unqualified, the master control device will determine that the rubber hose is unqualified, and the devices in the subsequent processes will not operate on any port of the rubber hose.
[0099] In another alternative embodiment of the present application, the ferrule installation device 14 is further described; as Figures 13 to 15 shown, the ferrule installation device 14 is used for installing ferrules on the rubber hose. The ferrule includes a sleeve and a mandrel; the ferrule installation device 14 includes a ferrule feeding mechanism 14.1, a ferrule installation mechanism 14.2 and a third mounting seat 14.9. The ferrule feeding mechanism 14.1 and the ferrule installation mechanism 14.2 are arranged on the third mounting seat 14.9. The third mounting seat 14.9 is used to support and lift the ferrule feeding mechanism 14.1 and the ferrule installation mechanism 14.2. The ferrule feeding mechanism 14.1 is used to transport the ferrule to the ferrule installation mechanism 14.2, and the ferrule installation mechanism 14.2 is used to install the ferrule on the rubber hose; among them, the ferrule installation mechanism 14.2 is provided with a ferrule installation working position and a ferrule feeding working position. The ferrule installation working position is the working position for installing the ferrule on the rubber hose, and the ferrule feeding working position is the working position where the ferrule feeding mechanism 14.1 feeds the ferrule onto the ferrule installation mechanism 14.2. The ferrule installation working position and the ferrule feeding working position are arranged at intervals, which can avoid the collision interference between the ferrule feeding mechanism 14.1 placing the ferrule on the ferrule installation mechanism 14.2 and the rubber hose; in the present application, the conveying device 11 transports the rubber hose to be installed with a ferrule to the ferrule installation working position, and cooperates with the ferrule installation mechanism 14.2 to install the ferrule on the rubber hose.
[0100] Specifically, as Figure 15 、 Figure 16As shown in the figure, the fastener installation mechanism 14.2 includes a fastener clamping assembly 14.11 and a fastener displacement driving assembly 14.12. The fastener displacement driving assembly 14.12 is arranged on the third mounting seat 14.9. The fastener clamping assembly 14.11 is connected to the fastener displacement driving assembly 14.12. The fastener clamping assembly 14.11 is used to clamp the fastener, and the fastener displacement driving assembly 14.12 is used to drive the fastener clamping assembly 14.11 to move between the fastener feeding station and the fastener installation station. When feeding is required, the fastener clamping assembly 14.11 is located at the fastener feeding station, and the fastener feeding mechanism 14.1 places the fastener on the fastener clamping assembly 14.11. After the fastener clamping assembly 14.11 clamps the fastener, the fastener displacement driving assembly 14.12 drives the fastener clamping assembly 14.11 to move to the fastener installation station. During the movement, under the push of the fastener displacement driving assembly 14.12, the fastener is gradually installed on the rubber hose. After it is completely installed, the fastener displacement driving assembly 14.12 then drives the fastener clamping assembly 14.11 to return to the fastener feeding station. This cycle is repeated to achieve automatic feeding of the fasteners for the rubber hose, eliminating the need for manual operation and having extremely high work efficiency, which can effectively improve production efficiency.
[0101] Further, as Figure 16 shown, the fastener clamping assembly 14.11 includes a mounting support, fastener claws 14.13, and a first claw driving member 14.14. The bottom of the mounting support is connected to the fastener displacement driving assembly 14.12. The first claw driving member 14.14 passes through the mounting support and is connected to the fastener claws 14.13. The fastener claws 14.13 face the fastener installation station direction. The mounting support is an inverted T-shaped structure. Its vertical plate is used to install the first claw driving member 14.14 and the fastener claws 14.13, and the horizontal plate is used to connect the vertical plate and the fastener displacement driving assembly 14.12, which can meet the installation and connection requirements. The fastener claws 14.13 include three clamping blocks, which are circumferentially spaced at the same center. The space for clamping the fastener is at the center of the three clamping blocks. The first claw driving member 14.14 is a motor-like driving element, and the first claw driving member 14.14 is used to control the opening and closing degree of the fastener claws 14.13. When the fastener claws 14.13 open, the three clamping blocks move outward simultaneously, causing the circumference where the three clamping blocks are located to expand. When the fastener claws 14.13 close, the three clamping blocks move inward simultaneously, causing the circumference where the three clamping blocks are located to shrink, thereby realizing the clamping or loosening of the fastener by the fastener claws 14.13.
[0102] As Figure 16As shown in the figure, the buckle displacement driving assembly 14.12 includes a second driving member, a guide rail and a slider. The guide rail is arranged on the tabletop of the third mounting seat 14.9, and the guide rail is located between the buckle feeding station and the buckle installation station, that is, both ends of the guide rail lead to the buckle feeding station and the buckle installation station respectively; the bottom of the slider is slidably connected to the guide rail, and the upper end of the slider is connected to the cross plate of the mounting support; wherein, the second driving member is arranged on the third mounting seat 14.9, the second driving member is a motor-like component, the second driving member is connected to the slider, and the second driving member is used to drive the slider to move along the guide rail, and the slider drives the buckle clamping assembly 14.11 to move along the guide rail, so as to realize the reciprocating movement of the buckle clamping assembly 14.11 between the buckle feeding station and the buckle installation station, and assist the buckle clamping assembly 14.11 to realize the actions of picking up the buckle and installing the buckle.
[0103] As Figures 13 to 14 shown in the figure, in the present application, the buckle feeding mechanism 14.1 includes a buckle feeding gripper 14.10, and the buckle feeding gripper 14.10 can rotate 360 degrees, and can pick up or place materials more flexibly, improving work efficiency. It should be noted that the structure of the buckle feeding gripper 14.10 is the same as that of the sponge ball feeding gripper 12.3, and will not be elaborated here.
[0104] Furthermore, as Figures 13 to 15 shown in the figure, the buckle installation device 14 further includes a third rubber hose fixing assembly 14.7. The third rubber hose fixing assembly 14.7 is arranged on the third mounting seat 14.9, and the third rubber hose fixing assembly 14.7 is located at one end of the buckle installation station. The third rubber hose fixing assembly 14.7 is used to clamp the rubber hose to keep the rubber hose stable, so as to cooperate with the buckle installation mechanism 14.2 to install the buckle on the rubber hose. In this embodiment, the structure of the third rubber hose fixing assembly 14.7 is the same as that of the first rubber hose fixing assembly 12.6, and will not be elaborated here.
[0105] Further expand the buckle installation device 14; as Figures 13 to 15 shown in the figure, the buckle installation device 14 further includes a buckle feeding mechanism 14.5 and a buckle transfer table 14.6. The buckle transfer table 14.6 is arranged on the third mounting seat 14.9. The buckle feeding mechanism 14.5 is integrally arranged on the left side of the buckle feeding mechanism 14.1. The buckle transfer table 14.6 is located between the buckle feeding mechanism 14.1 and the buckle feeding mechanism 14.5. The buckle feeding mechanism 14.5 is used to transport the buckle to the buckle transfer table 14.6, and the buckle feeding mechanism 14.1 is used to transport the materials on the buckle transfer table 14.6 to the buckle clamping assembly 14.11, so that the feeding and picking routes of the buckle are more reasonable and will not interfere with each other.
[0106] Specifically, asFigures 13 to 15 As shown, the ferrule feeding mechanism 14.5 includes a ferrule feeding gripper 14.15, a ferrule elevator 14.16, a ferrule temporary storage table 14.18, and a ferrule vibrating table 14.17. It should be noted that in this embodiment, the feeding principle of the ferrule feeding mechanism 14.5 is the same as that of the sponge ball feeding mechanism 12.5, and the structures are the same. Only the materials to be fed and the installation positions are different. Therefore, the ferrule feeding mechanism 14.5 will not be elaborated here.
[0107] In this embodiment, a ferrule vision detection component can also be provided above the ferrule vibrating table 14.17 to provide the coordinates of the ferrules on the ferrule vibrating table 14.17 to the ferrule feeding gripper 14.15, so that the ferrule feeding gripper 14.15 can accurately pick up the ferrules and improve work efficiency. It should be noted that in this application, the structure of the ferrule feeding gripper 14.15 is the same as that of the ferrule loading gripper 14.10. Therefore, the structure of the ferrule loading gripper 14.10 will not be elaborated here.
[0108] Furthermore, as Figures 13 to 15 shown, the ferrule installation device 14 further includes a ferrule detection mechanism 14.3. The ferrule detection mechanism 14.3 is arranged on the third mounting seat 14.9. The ferrule detection mechanism 14.3 is located on the front side of the ferrule transfer table 14.6. The ferrule feeding gripper 14.15 transports the ferrules to the working station of the ferrule detection mechanism 14.3 for detection. The ferrule detection mechanism 14.3 is used to detect whether parameters such as the length, thickness, and diameter of the ferrules are qualified, so as to determine whether the detected ferrules are qualified products; among them, a waste recycling area 14.4 is provided on the third mounting seat 14.9. The waste recycling area 14.4 is located on the front side of the ferrule feeding gripper 14.15 and on the left side of the ferrule detection mechanism 14.3 at the same time. When the detected ferrules are unqualified, the ferrule feeding gripper 14.15 places the unqualified products in the waste recycling area 14.4. When the detected ferrules are qualified, the ferrule feeding gripper 14.15 places the qualified products on the ferrule transfer table 14.6 to ensure that the ferrules picked up by the ferrule loading gripper 14.10 from the ferrule transfer table 14.6 are qualified, ensure that the ferrules installed on the rubber hose are qualified products, and do not require manual detection and judgment, saving labor costs and improving work efficiency.
[0109] On the basis of the above embodiment, the ferrule installation device 14 is further expanded; as Figures 13 to 15As shown, the ferrule installation device 14 further includes a marking mechanism 14.8. The marking mechanism 14.8 is arranged on the third mounting base 14.9 and is located at the rear side of the ferrule loading gripper 14.10. After the second robot picks up the ferrule from the ferrule transfer table 14.6, it transports the columnar material to the working position of the marking mechanism 14.8. Then, the marking mechanism 14.8 performs laser marking on the ferrule. After the ferrule is marked, the ferrule loading gripper 14.10 transports the ferrule to the ferrule installation mechanism 14.2 again.
[0110] It should be noted that the marking mechanism 14.8 is an optional solution. When the ferrule for hose loading is a mandrel, the marking mechanism 14.8 does not need to be set. When the loaded material is a sleeve, the marking mechanism 14.8 needs to be set to mark the sleeve.
[0111] In this application, when it is necessary to install both the sleeve and the mandrel on the hose at the same time, two ferrule installation devices 14 can be arranged at intervals. The first ferrule installation device 14 is used to install the sleeve on the hose and is equipped with a marking mechanism 14.8. Among them, the ferrule detection mechanism 14.3 in the first ferrule installation device 14 is used to detect the length, thickness, and whether laser marking has been performed on the sleeve. Those that have not been laser marked can be marked by the marking mechanism 14.8, and those that have already been marked are directly transported to the ferrule installation mechanism 14.2 via the ferrule loading gripper 14.10; the second ferrule installation device 14 is used to install the mandrel on the hose and does not need to be equipped with a marking mechanism 14.8. The ferrule detection mechanism 14.3 in the second ferrule installation device 14 is used to detect the diameter and length of the mandrel; after the sleeve is installed on the hose, it is transported to the second ferrule installation device 14 via the conveyor device 11 for mandrel installation.
[0112] It should be noted that in this embodiment, when detecting the coaxiality of the sleeve, the camera device of the ferrule detection mechanism 14.3 uses a single-lens dual-camera detection. It has 2 sets of cameras. The 2 sets of cameras switch to take pictures and share a single lens, which can achieve higher-precision detection without moving the camera and can also achieve detection of different lens depths (object distances).
[0113] As Figure 1 shown, after the ferrule installation device 14 installs the ferrule on the hose, the conveyor device 11 transports the hose to the working position of the ferrule crimping device 15 for ferrule crimping.
[0114] In another optional embodiment of this application, the ferrule crimping device 15 is further described; as Figures 17 to 23As shown, the hose clamping device 15 of the clamping part includes a clamping structure and a clamping detection mechanism 15.17. The clamping structure and the clamping detection mechanism 15.17 are arranged at intervals. The conveying device 11 conveys the hose to be clamped to the clamping structure. After being clamped by the clamping structure, the conveying device 11 then conveys the clamped hose to the clamping detection mechanism 15.17 for detection, thus realizing automatic clamping and being able to automatically detect the clamped part in a timely manner, greatly reducing the labor demand, reducing labor costs, and greatly improving work efficiency.
[0115] As Figures 18 to 20 shown, the clamping structure includes a fourth mounting base 15.13, a hose feeding assembly 15.2 and a clamping machine 15.1. The clamping machine 15.1 is arranged on the fourth mounting base 15.13 and is used for clamping. The fourth mounting base 15.13 is arranged at the side end of the conveying device 11. The position where the conveying device 11 conveys the hose to in front of the clamping machine 15.1 is the hose preparation station, and the position where the clamping machine 15.1 clamps the hose is the clamping station. The hose feeding assembly 15.2 is arranged above the conveying device 11. The hose feeding assembly 15.2 includes a feeding mounting frame 15.3, a clamping feeding jaw 15.4 and a driving assembly. The feeding mounting frame 15.3 is installed on the ground, and the driving assembly is installed on the feeding mounting frame 15.3. The driving assembly is connected to the clamping feeding jaw 15.4 at the same time. The driving assembly is used to drive the clamping feeding jaw 15.4 to be able to move between the hose preparation station and the clamping station, that is, to be able to grab the hose at the hose preparation station and move it to the clamping station, so that the hose can be conveyed into the clamping machine 15.1 for clamping. The hose feeding assembly 15.2 has the function of automatically feeding the hose and cooperates with the clamping machine 15.1 to realize the automatic clamping of the hose, thereby improving work efficiency.
[0116] It should be noted that the structure of the clamping feeding jaw 15.4 is the same as that of the clamping jaw of the sponge ball feeding gripper 12.3. The clamping feeding jaw 15.4 includes two clamping parts. The two clamping parts are arranged at intervals front and back. One of the clamping parts is used to clamp the part of the hose where the clamping part is not installed, and the other clamping part is used to clamp the part of the hose where the clamping part is installed. The two clamping parts cooperate to realize the positioning function, ensuring that the clamping feeding jaw 15.4 can clamp at the clamping part. At the same time, it can make the hose move stably, so that the clamping of the clamping feeding jaw 15.4 on the hose is relatively stable, and it is ensured that the clamping part will not be misaligned or fall off from the hose when the clamping feeding jaw 15.4 clamps and moves the hose. This will not be elaborated here.
[0117] Specifically, as Figure 18As shown in the figure, the feeding mounting bracket 15.3 is of an n-shaped arch structure, and the feeding mounting bracket 15.3 spans across both ends of the conveying device 11; the hose feeding assembly 15.2 includes a first feeding driving member 15.5, a slider and a guide rail. The guide rail is fixedly connected to the cross beam of the feeding mounting bracket 15.3. The length extension direction of the cross beam of the feeding mounting bracket 15.3 is parallel to the feeding direction of the hose crimping. One end of the slider is fixedly connected to the crimping feeding jaw 15.4 relatively, and the other end is slidably connected to the guide rail; the first feeding driving member 15.5 is connected to the slider. When the first feeding driving member 15.5 operates, it drives the slider to slide along the guide rail, and the first sliding drives the crimping feeding jaw 15.4 to move.
[0118] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the distance between the end of the guide rail close to the crimping machine 15.1 and the crimping machine 15.1 is less than or equal to the length of the crimping feeding jaw 15.4, and the end of the guide rail close to the conveying device 11 is located above the conveying device 11. Thus, the first feeding driving member 15.5 can drive the crimping feeding jaw 15.4 to move to a suitable position on the conveying device 11 to clamp the hose. At the same time, when the first feeding driving member 15.5 drives the crimping feeding jaw 15.4 to move towards the crimping station, the length of the guide rail enables the crimping feeding jaw 15.4 to reach the crimping station, that is, the length and the setting position of the guide rail need to meet the requirement that the crimping feeding jaw 15.4 can pick up the hose at the hose preparation station and can also send the hose to the crimping station.
[0119] Furthermore, as Figure 18 、 Figure 19 shown in the figure, the hose feeding assembly 15.2 further includes a second feeding driving member 15.6. The second feeding driving member 15.6 is a linear driving module. The driving principle and structure of the linear driving module are prior arts and will not be elaborated here; one end of the second feeding driving member 15.6 is connected to the slider, and the other end is connected to the crimping feeding jaw 15.4. The second feeding driving member 15.6 is used to drive the crimping feeding jaw 15.4 to move up and down in the vertical direction. Then, when the conveying device 11 conveys the hose, the second feeding driving member 15.6 can drive the crimping feeding jaw 15.4 to move up, so that the crimping feeding jaw 15.4 can avoid the hose and prevent interference between the crimping feeding jaw 15.4 and the hose.
[0120] Furthermore, as Figures 19 to 20As shown, the hose feeding assembly 15.2 further includes a third feeding driving member 15.7 and a connecting support 15.8. When the second feeding driving member 15.6 is provided in the hose feeding assembly 15.2, the connecting support 15.8 is connected to the second feeding driving member 15.6. When the second feeding driving member 15.6 is not provided in the hose feeding assembly 15.2, the connecting support 15.8 is connected to the first feeding driving member 15.5. In this embodiment, the hose feeding assembly 15.2 is provided with the first feeding driving member 15.5, the second feeding driving member 15.6 and the third feeding driving member 15.7 at the same time. The end of the connecting support 15.8 close to the second feeding driving member 15.6 is connected to the second feeding driving member 15.6. The third feeding driving member 15.7 is connected to the connecting support 15.8. At the same time, the third feeding driving member 15.7 is connected to the crimping feeding jaw 15.4. The third driving is used to drive the crimping feeding jaw 15.4 to move in the horizontal direction perpendicular to the hose crimping feeding direction, that is, the third feeding driving member 15.7 drives the crimping feeding jaw 15.4 to move left and right, so that the crimping feeding jaw 15.4 can be finely adjusted to be directly above the hose, so as to facilitate the crimping feeding jaw 15.4 to accurately clamp the hose.
[0121] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the direction towards the conveying device 11 is defined as forward, the direction towards the crimping structure or the crimping detection mechanism 15.17 is defined as backward, the direction towards the crimping detection mechanism 15.17 is defined as left, and the direction towards the crimping structure is defined as right. That is, the first feeding driving member 15.5 drives the crimping feeding jaw 15.4 to move back and forth, the second feeding driving member 15.6 drives the crimping feeding jaw 15.4 to move up and down, and the third feeding driving member 15.7 drives the crimping feeding jaw 15.4 to move left and right.
[0122] Specifically, as Figures 19 to 20As shown, in this embodiment, the hose feeding assembly 15.2 further includes a transmission screw 15.9. The connecting support 15.8 is of an n-shaped arch structure. The connecting support 15.8 includes a transverse plate and vertical plates arranged on both sides of the transverse plate. A rotating hole is provided on the vertical plate at the end away from the second feeding driving member 15.6. The transmission screw 15.9 passes through the rotating hole. The transmission screw 15.9 is smoothly rotatably connected to the connecting support 15.8. One end of the transmission screw 15.9 passing through the connecting support 15.8 is connected to the third feeding driving member 15.7. The third feeding driving member 15.7 can adopt an electric driving element or a manual control element. The third feeding driving member 15.7 is connected to the transmission screw 15.9 through the rotating hole. The third feeding driving member 15.7 is used to drive the transmission screw 15.9 to rotate. The threaded portion of the transmission screw 15.9 is in threaded rotational connection with the crimping feeding jaw 15.4. That is, when the third feeding driving member 15.7 drives the transmission screw 15.9 to rotate, the transmission screw 15.9 transmits the rotational force to the crimping feeding jaw 15.4 through threaded rotation, so that the crimping feeding jaw 15.4 moves along the length extension direction of the transmission screw 15.9, thereby realizing the left and right movement of the crimping feeding jaw 15.4.
[0123] In this embodiment, the third feeding driving member 15.7 is a manual control element, such as Figure 20 shown. The third feeding driving member 15.7 includes a turntable and a handle. One end of the turntable is fixedly connected to the transmission screw 15.9, and the other end is fixedly connected to the handle. The staff can hold the handle to drive the turntable to rotate, and the turntable then drives the transmission screw 15.9 to rotate. Among them, rotating counterclockwise and clockwise can realize the left or right movement of the crimping feeding jaw 15.4. By setting the third feeding driving member 15.7 as a manual control element, precise and delicate adjustment can be carried out so that the crimping feeding jaw 15.4 can grasp the hose more accurately.
[0124] Furthermore, as Figure 19 、 Figure 20As shown, the hose feeding assembly 15.2 further includes an auxiliary rotating rod 15.10 and a locking block 15.11. The driving screw rod 15.9 is arranged in parallel and spaced apart from the auxiliary rotating rod 15.10. At least one auxiliary rotating rod 15.10 is provided. In this embodiment, two auxiliary rotating rods 15.10 are provided and are respectively arranged on both sides of the driving screw rod 15.9. The auxiliary rotating rod 15.10 is located between the two vertical plates of the connecting support 15.8, and the auxiliary rotating rod 15.10 is fixedly connected to the connecting support 15.8. An installation groove 15.14 is provided on the locking block 15.11. The bottom of the locking block 15.11 is fixedly connected to the crimping feeding jaw 15.4. After the auxiliary rotating rod 15.10 passes through the installation groove 15.14, the connection between the auxiliary rotating rod 15.10 and the crimping feeding jaw 15.4 is realized through the locking block 15.11. Among them, a locking member 15.12 is provided on the locking block 15.11. The locking member 15.12 is used to adjust the size of the installation groove 15.14. By adjusting the size of the installation groove 15.14, it can be controlled whether the crimping feeding jaw 15.4 can move left and right. When the installation groove 15.14 is adjusted to decrease to a certain extent, the locking block 15.11 locks the auxiliary rotating rod 15.10, and the crimping feeding jaw 15.4 cannot move left and right. When the installation groove 15.14 is adjusted to increase to a certain extent, the locking block 15.11 unlocks the locking of the auxiliary rotating rod 15.10, and the crimping feeding jaw 15.4 can move left and right. Through the set structure, it can be ensured that after the crimping feeding jaw 15.4 is adjusted in the left and right directions, locking can be achieved, avoiding the left and right shaking of the crimping feeding jaw 15.4 during the movement process, and increasing the high efficiency, precision and working stability of the crimping feeding jaw 15.4 for grasping the hose.
[0125] Specifically, such as Figure 23As shown, the installation groove 15.14 includes an installation part 15.15 that fits with the auxiliary rotating rod 15.10. The inner wall surface of the installation part 15.15 is arc-shaped. In the normal use state of the installation part 15.15, the diameter of the installation part 15.15 is not much different from the outer diameter of the auxiliary rotating rod 15.10. The diameter of the installation part 15.15 can be set to be slightly smaller than the outer diameter of the auxiliary rotating rod 15.10, so that the locking block 15.11 can slide along the auxiliary rotating rod 15.10; the installation part 15.15 penetrates through the left and right end faces of the locking part. An opening part 15.16 is provided at the upper end of the installation part 15.15. The opening part 15.16 penetrates through the left and right end faces of the locking block 15.11. The bottom of the opening part 15.16 communicates with the installation part 15.15. The opening part 15.16 opens on the upper end face of the locking block 15.11. The opening part 15.16 is a long rectangular structure, and the width of the opening part 15.16 is smaller than the diameter of the installation part 15.15; among them, the locking member 15.12 penetrates through the locking blocks 15.11 on both sides of the opening part 15.16 and the opening part 15.16. The locking member 15.12 can tighten the parts of the locking blocks 15.11 at both ends of the opening part 15.16, thereby shortening the size of the opening part 15.16. When the opening part 15.16 shrinks, the locking blocks 15.11 on both sides of the installation part 15.15 are pulled together, so that the diameter of the installation part 15.15 is shortened, and the inner wall of the installation part 15.15 fits more closely with the auxiliary rotating rod 15.10. Then, the friction force between the locking block 15.11 and the auxiliary rotating rod 15.10 increases, and the locking block 15.11 cannot drive the clamping and feeding jaw 15.4 to move along the auxiliary rotating rod 15.10. At this time, the clamping and feeding jaw 15.4 is in a locked state and cannot move left and right; when the locking member 15.12 releases the tension on the locking blocks 15.11 at both ends of the opening part 15.16, the opening part 15.16 opens, and the tightness of the fit between the installation part 15.15 and the auxiliary rotating rod 15.10 decreases. The friction force between the auxiliary rotating rod 15.10 and the installation part 15.15 is small, and the locking block 15.11 can drive the clamping and feeding jaw 15.4 to move along the auxiliary rotating rod 15.10. At this time, the clamping and feeding jaw 15.4 is in an unlocked state and can be adjusted to move left and right.
[0126] A further description is made for the buckling detection mechanism 15.17; as Figures 21 to 22As shown, the crimping detection mechanism 15.17 includes a measuring instrument 15.21 and a fifth mounting base 15.18. The fifth mounting base 15.18 is used to support and elevate the measuring instrument 15.21. The measuring instrument 15.21 is relatively arranged on the tabletop of the fifth mounting base 15.18. Among them, the measuring instrument 15.21 is a laser profile measuring instrument 15.21, which can detect the crimped part of the hose through laser scanning by the measuring instrument 15.21, and output the detected dimensions to the total control, so as to analyze and determine whether the crimped part of the detected hose is qualified.
[0127] Further, as Figures 21 to 22 shown, the crimping detection mechanism 15.17 further includes a first detection driving member 15.19. The bottom of the first detection driving member 15.19 is relatively fixed on the tabletop of the fifth mounting base 15.18. The first detection driving member 15.19 adopts a rotary module. The first detection driving member 15.19 is connected to one end of the measuring instrument 15.21 facing away from the conveying device 11. The first detection driving member 15.19 is used to drive the measuring instrument 15.21 to rotate in the vertical plane, so that the measuring instrument 15.21 can rotate 360 degrees in the vertical plane, so as to detect parameters such as the diameter of the crimped part.
[0128] Further, the crimping detection mechanism 15.17 further includes a second detection driving member 15.20. As Figures 21 to 22 shown, the second detection driving member 15.20 is a translation module. The length extension direction of the translation module is arranged along the front-back direction. The bottom of the second detection driving member 15.20 is connected to the tabletop of the fifth mounting base 15.18. The upper end of the second detection driving member 15.20 is connected to the bottom of the first detection driving member 15.19. The second detection driving member 15.20 is used to drive the first detection driving member 15.19 to move back and forth, that is, the second detection driving member 15.20 can drive the first detection driving member 15.19 to move along the length direction of the hose crimping member, so as to comprehensively detect the crimped part and improve the detection accuracy and detection effect.
[0129] It should be noted that in this application, when it is necessary to crimp the sleeve and the mandrel of the hose at the same time, two crimping device 15 can be arranged at intervals. The first crimping device 15 is used to crimp and detect the sleeve installed on the hose; the second crimping device 15 is used to crimp and detect the mandrel installed on the hose; when the sleeve of the hose is crimped and detected, it is transported to the second crimping device 15 by the conveying device 11 for crimping and detection of the mandrel.
[0130] As Figure 1As shown, after the hose crimper 15.1 finishes crimping the hose, the crimping detection mechanism 15.17 transmits the detected information to the master control device, and the master control device marks whether the crimping quality of the hose is qualified or not; if the crimping quality of the hose is unqualified, the master control device controls the devices in the subsequent processes not to operate on the hose, and if the crimping quality of the hose is qualified, the devices in the subsequent processes operate on the hose according to the procedure; among them, after the crimping device 15 finishes operating on the hose, the conveying device 11 conveys the hose to the working position of the dust cap device for assembling the dust cap. Since the hose of the present application has two ports that need to be operated, when one end of a hose is detected to be unqualified, the master control device will determine that the hose is unqualified, and the devices in the subsequent processes will not operate on any port of the hose.
[0131] In another alternative embodiment of the present application, the dust cap assembling device 16 is further described; as Figures 24 to 25 shown, the dust cap assembling device 16 of the present application is used to assemble a dust cap on the port of the hose that has been crimped, so as to prevent external dust and impurities from entering the hose. As Figure 24 shown, the dust cap assembling device 16 includes a sixth mounting seat 16.5, a dust cap feeding mechanism 16.2 and a dust cap assembling mechanism 16.1. The dust cap feeding mechanism 16.2 and the dust cap assembling mechanism 16.1 are arranged on the sixth mounting seat 16.5. The sixth mounting seat 16.5 is used to support and lift the dust cap feeding mechanism 16.2 and the dust cap assembling mechanism 16.1. The dust cap feeding mechanism 16.2 is used to transport the dust cap to the dust cap assembling mechanism 16.1, and the dust cap assembling mechanism 16.1 is used to install the dust cap on the hose; among them, the dust cap assembling mechanism 16.1 is provided with a dust cap installation station and a dust cap feeding station. The dust cap installation station is the station for installing the dust cap on the hose, and the dust cap feeding station is the station where the dust cap feeding mechanism 16.2 feeds the dust cap onto the dust cap assembling mechanism 16.1. The dust cap installation station and the dust cap feeding station are arranged at intervals, which can avoid the collision interference between the dust cap feeding mechanism 16.2 placing the dust cap on the dust cap assembling mechanism 16.1 and the hose; in the present application, the conveying device 11 transports the hose to be installed with the dust cap to the dust cap installation station, and cooperates with the dust cap assembling mechanism 16.1 to install the dust cap on the hose.
[0132] As Figure 24 、 Figure 25As shown, the dust cap assembly mechanism 16.1 further includes a fourth hose fixing component 16.9. The fourth hose fixing component 16.9 is arranged on the sixth mounting seat 16.5. The fourth hose fixing component 16.9 is located at one end of the dust cap installation station. The fourth hose fixing component 16.9 and the dust cap installation support 16.6 are arranged at intervals. The fourth hose fixing component 16.9 is used to clamp the hose to keep the hose stable, so as to cooperate with the dust cap assembly mechanism 16.1 to install the dust cap onto the hose. It should be noted that in this embodiment, the fourth hose fixing component 16.9 has the same structure as the first hose fixing component 12.6, and will not be elaborated here.
[0133] Further, the dust cap assembly mechanism 16.1 is further described as follows; as Figure 24 、 Figure 25 As shown, the dust cap assembly mechanism 16.1 includes a dust cap installation support 16.6, a dust cap gripper 16.7 and a dust cap pusher 16.8. The dust cap installation support 16.6 is of an n-shaped arch structure. The dust cap installation support 16.6 is connected to the tabletop of the sixth mounting seat 16.5. The dust cap installation support 16.6 is fixedly connected to the sixth mounting seat 16.5; the dust cap pusher 16.8 is connected to the dust cap installation support 16.6. One end of the dust cap pusher 16.8 close to the dust cap installation station is connected to the dust cap gripper 16.7. The dust cap gripper 16.7 is used to clamp the dust cap. In this embodiment, the dust cap pusher 16.8 is a cylinder-like component that can generate a driving force. The dust cap pusher 16.8 is used to drive the dust cap gripper 16.7 to move between the dust cap loading station and the dust cap installation station. When feeding is required, the dust cap gripper 16.7 is located at the dust cap loading station. The dust cap feeding mechanism 16.2 places the dust cap on the dust cap gripper 16.7. After the dust cap gripper 16.7 clamps the dust cap, the dust cap pusher 16.8 drives the dust cap gripper 16.7 to move towards the direction of the fourth hose fixing component 16.9, that is, to move the dust cap gripper 16.7 from the dust cap loading station to the dust cap installation station. During the movement, under the thrust of the dust cap pusher 16.8, the dust cap is gradually installed onto the hose. After it is completely installed, the dust cap pusher 16.8 then drives the dust cap gripper 16.7 to return to the dust cap loading station, and so on in a cycle, realizing automatic feeding of the buckle for the hose, without manual operation, and with extremely high work efficiency, which can effectively improve production efficiency.
[0134] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the dust cap jaw 16.7 has the same structure as the crimping part jaw 14.13, and thus will not be elaborated here.

One end of the second jaw driving member 16.10 is connected to the dust cap pushing member 16.8, and the other end is connected to the dust cap jaw 16.7. The second jaw driving member 16.10 is used to drive the opening and closing of the dust cap jaw 16.7. In this embodiment, the structure of the second jaw driving member 16.10 is the same as the principle of the first jaw driving member 14.14, and thus will not be elaborated here.
[0135] Furthermore, the dust cap assembly device 16 is further expanded; in this embodiment, the dust cap assembly device 16 further includes a pressure sensor (not shown in the figure). The pressure sensor is connected to the dust cap pushing member 16.8. The pressure sensor can detect the pressing force output by the dust cap pushing member 16.8 to the dust cap jaw 16.7, and monitor the output pressing force of the dust cap pushing member 16.8 in real time, so as to provide feedback to the master control in a timely manner, facilitating the staff to adjust the output pressing force of the dust cap pushing member 16.8 in a timely manner, so as to improve the accuracy of the dust cap installation by the dust cap assembly mechanism 16.1 and improve the assembly quality.
[0136] Furthermore, the dust cap assembly device 16 is further expanded; in this embodiment, the dust cap assembly device 16 further includes a stroke sensor (not shown in the figure).

[0137] It should be noted that in the crimping part installation device 14, a pressure sensor and a stroke sensor can also be provided on its crimping part displacement driving component 14.12, so as to be able to monitor the pushing pressure and pushing stroke output by the crimping part displacement driving component 14.12 to the crimping part jaw 14.13 in a timely manner, facilitating the staff to accurately adjust, so as to improve the accuracy of the crimping part installation device 14 for the assembly of the hose crimping part and improve the assembly quality.
[0138] Furthermore, as Figure 24 、 Figure 25 shown, the dust cap assembly device 16 further includes a dust cap feeding mechanism 16.3. The dust cap feeding mechanism 16.3 is integrally arranged on the left side of the dust cap loading mechanism 16.2. The dust cap feeding mechanism 16.3 is used to feed the dust cap loading mechanism 16.2; specifically, asFigure 25 As shown, the dust cap feeding mechanism 16.3 includes a dust cap vibrating table 16.13, a dust cap temporary storage table 16.11, and a dust cap elevator 16.12; it should be noted that in this embodiment, the feeding principle of the dust cap feeding mechanism 16.3 is the same as that of the sponge ball feeding mechanism 12.5, and the structures are the same, only the materials to be fed and the installation positions are different, so the dust cap feeding mechanism 16.3 will not be elaborated here.
[0139] Further, as Figure 24 , Figure 25 shown, it further includes a dust cap vision detection component 16.4. The dust cap vision detection component 16.4 is arranged on the sixth mounting seat 16.5. The dust cap vision detection component 16.4 is located above the dust cap vibrating table 16.13. The dust cap vision detection component 16.4 is used to detect and position the dust caps in the dust cap vibrating table 16.13, and then transmit the positioning information of the dust caps to the master control. The master control feeds back the positioning information to the dust cap feeding mechanism 16.2. The dust cap feeding mechanism 16.2 then takes the dust caps from the dust cap vibrating table 16.13 according to the positioning information. With the cooperation of the dust cap vision detection component 16.4, the dust cap feeding mechanism 16.2 can accurately grab the dust caps, improving the work efficiency. It should be noted that in this embodiment, the detection principle of the dust cap vision detection component 16.4 is the same as that of the dust cap vision detection component 16.4, and the structures are the same, only the detection objects and the installation positions are different, so the dust cap vision detection component 16.4 will not be elaborated here.
[0140] Further, a further description is made of the dust cap feeding mechanism 16.2; as Figure 24 , Figure 25 shown, the dust cap feeding mechanism 16.2 includes a dust cap feeding gripper 16.14. The dust cap feeding gripper 16.14 is arranged on the tabletop of the sixth mounting seat 16.5. The dust cap feeding gripper 16.14 is used to grab the dust caps and transport the dust caps from the storage place to the feeding end of the rubber tube. The dust cap feeding gripper 16.14 can rotate 360 degrees, and can relatively flexibly pick up the dust caps or place the materials, improving the work efficiency.
[0141] It should be noted that the structure of the dust cap feeding gripper 16.14 is the same as that of the sponge ball feeding gripper 12.3, so it will not be elaborated here.
[0142] As Figure 24As shown, after the dust cap assembly device 16 finishes installing the dust cap on the hose, the conveying device 11 conveys the hose to the working station of the blanking device 17 for blanking of the hose. The total control device transmits the marking information of whether each hose is qualified or not to the blanking device 17. The blanking device 17 sorts the qualified and unqualified hoses to facilitate the centralized processing of the qualified or unqualified products by the staff, reduce labor costs, improve work efficiency, and facilitate the subsequent operation of the staff.
