Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of automation equipment, in particular to a coil feeding device and reed switch sensor production equipment. Background Art

[0002] Coils are a common electronic component that are widely used in various electrical and electronic devices for storing energy, screening signals, converting energy forms, etc. They are usually wound from conductive materials (such as copper wire) and can be hollow or around a magnetic core. The passage of a changing current through the coil generates a magnetic field, which in turn generates an induced current inside it, which is the basis for the operation of devices such as transformers and inductors. The inductance of a coil determines its resistance to changes in current, i.e., inductance. In electronic cigarettes, the coil acts as a heating element, generating enough heat through resistive heating to evaporate the oil and produce an inhalable aerosol. In the fields of wireless communications, signal processing, etc., coils are used to receive and transmit signals to achieve energy transmission and conversion.

[0043] Coils are a common electronic component that are widely used in various electrical and electronic devices for storing energy, screening signals, converting energy forms, etc. They are usually wound from conductive materials (such as copper wire) and can be hollow or around a magnetic core. The passage of a changing current through the coil generates a magnetic field, which in turn generates an induced current inside it, which is the basis for the operation of devices such as transformers and inductors.

In electronic cigarettes, the coil acts as a heating element, generating enough heat through resistive heating to evaporate the oil and produce an inhalable aerosol. In the fields of wireless communications, signal processing, etc., coils are used to receive and transmit signals to achieve energy transmission and conversion.

[0044] In the production process of reed switch sensors, coils are an indispensable and important part of reed switch sensors. During the transportation of coils, material trays are needed. The transportation of coils is completed by moving the material trays. Once the number of coils is too large, many material trays are needed. Moving the material trays one by one to the loading system will greatly increase the workload of the staff.

[0045] In order to solve the above problems, the utility model proposes a coil feeding device and a reed switch sensor production equipment, aiming to provide a coil feeding device that can realize automatic feeding and tray collection. Figures 1 to 5 The present invention is a schematic structural diagram of an embodiment of a coil feeding device provided by the present invention.

[0046] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5 The utility model proposes a coil feeding device 1000, comprising a workbench 1, an assembly line track 2, a stop mechanism 8 and a multi-axis robot 4, the assembly line track 2 is arranged on the workbench 1 and is provided with a loading position 2x, a picking position 2y and a recovery position 2z in sequence along the movement direction of the assembly line track 2, the assembly line track 2 is provided with a material tray 3, the material tray 3 can move from the loading position 2x to the recovery position 2z, the material tray 3 is used to place the coil, the stop mechanism 8 is arranged on the workbench 1 and is located at the picking position 2y, the stop mechanism 8 is provided with a movable end facing the assembly line track 2, the movable end is used to abut the material tray 3, the multi-axis robot 4 is arranged on the workbench 1 and is located on one side of the picking position 2y, the multi-axis robot 4 is provided with a clamping end 41, the clamping end 41 is used to clamp the coil in the material tray 3 located at the picking position 2y.

[0047] The loading position 2x, the picking position 2y and the recovery position 2z are arranged in sequence along the running direction of the conveyor belt 22, and are separated by the second isolation plate 13 and the first isolation plate 12 respectively, so as to reduce the impact on the picking multi-axis robot 4 when loading or unloading.

[0048] In the technical solution of the utility model, a coil feeding device 1000 and a reed switch sensor production device are proposed. The coil feeding device 1000 is a part of the reed switch sensor production device. The coil feeding device 1000 includes a workbench 1, an assembly line track 2, a stop mechanism 8 and a multi-axis robot 4. The assembly line track 2 is arranged on the workbench 1 and has a feeding position 2x, a material taking position 2y and a recycling position 2z formed in sequence along the movement direction of the assembly line track 2. The material tray 3 containing the coil is placed on the assembly line track 2, and can be loaded from the top The material position 2x moves with the track to the recovery position 2z. In specific production practice, the staff or other automated equipment will stack the material trays 3 containing the coils vertically at the loading position 2x, and the bottom material tray 3 will start to move driven by the assembly line track 2. The stop mechanism 8 will block the material tray 3 so that the material tray 3 stays at the material removal position 2y. After the multi-axis robot 4 grabs the coils in the material tray 3, the stop mechanism 8 falls, and the material tray 3 moves with the track to the recovery position 2z. The entire coil loading process realizes automated production and greatly reduces manpower consumption.

[0049] In order to transfer the coil to the assembly mechanism so as to realize the assembly of the coil and the reed switch, the clamping end 41 includes clamping parts arranged at intervals, each clamping part includes a first cylinder 42, a guide rail and two clamping claws 43 slidably arranged on the guide rail. For details, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 When the coil needs to be grabbed, the multi-axis robot 4 moves and drives the clamping end 41 to run to the material picking position 2y, and the two clamping claws 43 approach each other to clamp the coil and remove the coil from the material tray 3.

[0050] It should be noted that the assembly line track 2 can be a pulley conveyor belt 22 or a roller conveyor belt 22, and the utility model does not limit this. In one embodiment of the utility model, the assembly line track 2 includes a drive motor 21 and a conveyor belt 22. There are two conveyor belts 22, which are respectively sleeved on two pulleys 23 of the stand 11. Part of the structure of the conveyor belt abuts against the drive motor 21. By connecting with the output shaft of the drive motor 21, the drive motor 21 rotates to drive the movement of the conveyor belt 22. Since the conveyor belt 22 needs to transport the coil and the material tray 3 loaded with the coil, the gravity will generate downward pressure on the conveyor belt 22, causing the conveyor belt 22 to deform downward, resulting in an increase in the friction of the material tray 3 and unable to continue to move forward. For this reason, the stand 11 is provided with a support plate (not marked in the figure) extending in the horizontal direction. The upper surface of the support plate is spaced from the pulley 23. When the pulley 23 is deformed downward, the support plate will support it, thereby maintaining the transportation of the material tray 3.

[0051] When the material tray 3 moves to the material taking position 2y, the stop mechanism 8 will abut against one side of the material tray 3 so that the material tray 3 stops at the material taking position 2y, thereby facilitating the material taking operation of the multi-axis robot 4. In order to realize the automatic operation of the stop mechanism 8, the assembly line track 2 also includes a radar detection device 5. For details, please refer to Figure 4 The radar detection device 5 can identify objects in the material picking position 2y in real time. When the material tray 3 enters the material picking position 2y along the conveyor belt 22, the radar detection device 5 transmits radio waves and receives the reflected signals. The electromagnetic waves emitted by the device will be reflected when encountering the material tray 3. The radar receiver captures these reflected waves and determines the distance between the material tray 3 and the stop mechanism 8 and the speed of the material tray 3 itself according to the time delay, frequency change and intensity change of the signal, thereby controlling the stop mechanism 8 to rise against the material tray 3. After the material picking is completed, the piston descends, and the material tray 3 moves to the recovery position 2z along the conveyor belt 22.

[0052] In order to improve the working efficiency of the equipment, the loading position 2x is provided with a loading mechanism 6, and the loading mechanism 6 includes a first storage rack 61. For details, please refer to Figure 4 The first storage rack 61 is arranged on the workbench 1 and is located at the upper position, extending in the direction perpendicular to the assembly line track 2. The first storage rack 61 includes four columns, which together form a rectangular space. The material trays 3 containing coils are stacked vertically on the first storage rack 61. Two movable clamping plates 62 are provided at the bottom of the first storage rack 61 to abut against the convex edge 31 of the material tray 3 to place the material tray 3. When the equipment starts to run, the first lifting part 64 located on the workbench 1 will be lifted until it abuts against the lowermost material tray 3, and the two clamping plates 62 are driven to open by the second cylinder 63. At this time, the lowermost material tray 3 is placed on the first lifting part 64, and the first lifting part 64 immediately descends, and the material tray 3 is placed on the conveyor belt 22 and moves to the material picking position 2y with the conveyor belt 22.

[0053] In order to reasonably and standardizedly place the empty material tray 3 after the material is taken from the material taking position 2y, the present equipment is provided with a recovery mechanism 7 at the recovery position 2z, and the recovery mechanism 7 includes a second storage rack 71 which is arranged above the assembly line track 2 and is located at the recovery position 2z, and the second storage rack 71 is extended in a direction perpendicular to the assembly line track 2 and is provided with a one-way limiting device 72 therebelow, the one-way limiting device 72 can allow the material tray 3 to enter the second storage rack 71 from below, but the one-way limiting device 72 can limit the material tray 3 entering the second storage rack 71, the one-way limiting device 72 includes a mounting block 721, a locking tongue 722 and a limiting portion 723, the mounting block 721 is formed with a mounting hole 721a, the locking tongue 722 is rotatably arranged in the mounting hole 721a, at least part of the structure of the locking tongue 722 is located in the second storage rack 71, and the limiting portion 723 is arranged below the locking tongue 722 and on the rotation path of the locking tongue 722, so as to abut against the locking tongue 722 for limiting. The recovery mechanism 7 is provided with a second lifting portion, and the material tray 3 on the conveyor belt 22 is lifted into the second storage rack 71 by the second lifting portion, so as to realize the recovery of the material tray 3.

[0054] The utility model also proposes a reed switch sensor production equipment, which includes a reed switch feeding mechanism 6, an assembling mechanism, a transfer mechanism, a bending mechanism and a coil feeding device 1000.
