Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of sockets, and specifically, to an installation device for a socket shielding case. Background Art

[0002] With the development of science and technology and the improvement of technical level, more and more people travel by car. Usually, various electrical devices are carried on the car, and each electrical device is often connected to a connector through a vehicle harness to achieve communication. The role of the connector in the car is to build a communication bridge between circuits that are blocked or isolated, so that current can flow and the circuit can achieve the intended function.

[0003] The connector includes a plug and a socket, and the socket includes a housing, signal pins, a shielding case, etc. Usually, when the shielding case is installed into the housing, two common methods are adopted. One is the manual installation method, and the other is the automatic installation form. The former has a relatively low efficiency and is only suitable for the production of small batches and special models of connectors; the latter is suitable for mass production. Among them, the automatic installation form installs the shielding case into the housing by means of pressing. In order to achieve relative locking between the shielding case and the housing, usually an interference fit is adopted between the two. At this time, once the pressing force cannot be well controlled, it is easy to cause the situation that some connections between the housing and the shielding case are loose and some are locked in the same batch of sockets. In either case, it is not conducive to the later installation and maintenance of the socket.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a new device to solve the above problems. Summary of the Utility Model

[0010] As a further technical solution, the numbers of the motor, the rotating arm and the clamping jaw are the same and are arranged in one-to-one correspondence.

The guiding protrusion is used to help the jaws realize the transfer of the shielding case. The projection of the guiding protrusion on the mounting block is smaller than the surface area of the mounting block. Therefore, the mounting block can push against the upper end of the shielding case and finally install the shielding case into the outer shell. Since the mounting block needs to press the shielding case into the outer shell by a downward pressing action, in order to ensure safety and prevent excessive extrusion between the shielding case and the outer shell, a safety rod is also arranged on the workbench. A pressure sensor is arranged at the bottom end of the safety rod, and the pressure sensor is electrically connected to a controller. The controller can control the drive. When the outer shell contacts the bottom end of the pressure sensor, the outer shell will apply a certain force to the pressure sensor. When the force sensed by the pressure sensor reaches the set threshold, it proves that the shielding case has been installed in place on the outer shell. At this time, the installation action of the mounting block can be stopped through the controller to avoid the mounting block continuing to apply force to the shielding case and causing damage to the shielding case or the outer shell.

Specific embodiments

[0027] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without making creative efforts fall within the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0028] As Figures 1 to 9 shown, this embodiment provides an installation device for a socket shielding case, including a frame 1, a first driving assembly provided on the frame 1, a second driving assembly provided on the first driving assembly, and a workbench 2 provided on the second driving assembly. The workbench 2 can be moved in the horizontal and vertical directions by means of the first driving assembly and the second driving assembly. The device further includes a clamping assembly, a mounting block 3 and a safety rod 4. The clamping assembly is arranged on the workbench 2 and includes two jaws 5 that can approach or move away from each other relatively. The safety rod 4 penetrates through the workbench 2 and a pressure sensor 8 is arranged at the bottom end. The mounting block 3 is arranged on the workbench 2 and a guiding projection 6 is arranged at the bottom end. The guiding projection 6 can penetrate into the shielding case 7.

[0029] In this embodiment, the installation device of the socket shielding case includes a frame 1, a first driving component, a second driving component, a workbench 2, a clamping component, a mounting block 3, and a safety rod 4. The first driving component is arranged on the frame 1, the second driving component is arranged on the first driving component, the workbench 2 is arranged on the second driving component, and the workbench 2 can achieve two movements in the horizontal and vertical directions by means of the first driving component and the second driving component; the clamping component is arranged on the workbench 2, and the clamping component includes two jaws 5 that can approach or move away from each other relatively. When the two jaws 5 approach each other, they can grasp the shielding case 7, and along with the workbench 2, they can achieve two-directional movement, and finally grab the shielding case 7 placed on the fixture and then put it onto the outer shell, and press the shielding case 7 into the outer shell with the help of the mounting block 3. A guiding protrusion 6 is arranged at the bottom end of the mounting block 3, and the guiding protrusion 6 can penetrate into the shielding case 7. The guiding protrusion 6 is used to help the jaws 5 transfer the shielding case 7. The projection of the guiding protrusion 6 on the mounting block 3 is smaller than the surface area of the mounting block 3. Therefore, the mounting block 3 can push against the upper end of the shielding case 7 and finally install the shielding case 7 into the outer shell. Since the mounting block 3 needs to press the shielding case 7 into the outer shell by a downward movement, in order to ensure safety and prevent excessive extrusion between the shielding case 7 and the outer shell, a safety rod 4 is also arranged on the workbench 2. A pressure sensor 8 is arranged at the bottom end of the safety rod 4, and the pressure sensor 8 is electrically connected to a controller. The controller can control the drive. When the outer shell contacts the bottom end of the pressure sensor 8, the outer shell will apply a certain force to the pressure sensor. When the force sensed by the pressure sensor 8 reaches the set threshold, it proves that the shielding case 7 has been installed in place on the outer shell. At this time, the controller can stop the installation action of the mounting block 3 to avoid the mounting block 3 continuing to apply force to the shielding case 7 and causing damage to the shielding case 7 or the outer shell.

Since the pressure sensor 8 is arranged at the bottom end of the safety rod 4, in this way, the height between the pressure sensor 8 and the outer shell can be adjusted, so that the installation device can adapt to shielding cases 7 of different sizes.

[0032] Further, as Figure 9 shown, in this embodiment, there are two safety rods 4 and they are symmetrically arranged on the workbench 2.

[0033] In this embodiment, in order to further determine the safety during the installation process, the number of safety rods 4 is selected as two, and the number of pressure sensors 8 is also selected as two. The two pressure sensors 8 and the two safety rods 4 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence. Setting two safety rods 4 and two pressure sensors 8 can ensure that when one of them fails, the other is in a normal working state.

[0035] In this embodiment, in order to reduce the overall space occupied by the device and facilitate control and operation, the clamping assembly further includes a rotating arm 9 and a motor 10. The middle part of the rotating arm 9 is rotatably arranged on the workbench 2, one end of the rotating arm 9 is connected to the motor 10, and the other end is connected to the jaw 5.

The jaws 5 are detachably arranged on the rotating arm 9 and rotate synchronously with the end of the rotating arm 9.

[0036] Furthermore, as Figure 1 and Figure 9 shown, this embodiment proposes that the numbers of the motor 10, the rotating arm 9 and the jaws 5 are the same and are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence.
