[0033] The following will further elaborate on this application Figure 1-8 with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0034] Refer to Figure 1-6 A kind of automatic snap-fastener assembling device shown in the figure, which includes: a machine table 1, on which a vibrating feeding tray mechanism 2, a first transfer mechanism 3, a snap-fastener compressing mechanism 4, a snap-fastener compressing station 5, a product placing station 6, a detecting mechanism 7 and a blanking mechanism 8 are arranged; the vibrating feeding tray mechanism 2 is used to supply snap-fasteners to the snap-fastener compressing station 5, the snap-fastener compressing mechanism 4 is used to compress the snap-fasteners at the snap-fastener compressing station 5, clamp the compressed snap-fasteners and insert the snap-fasteners in the compressed state into the slot of the product, the first transfer mechanism 3 is used to transfer the snap-fastener compressing mechanism 4 to the product placing station 6, the detecting mechanism 7 is used to detect whether the snap-fasteners are inserted into the product, and the blanking mechanism 8 is used to blank the product after the snap-fasteners are installed. In this way, during assembly, the snap-fasteners are conveyed to the snap-fastener compressing station 5 through the vibrating feeding tray mechanism 2, the snap-fasteners at the snap-fastener compressing station 5 are compressed by the snap-fastener compressing mechanism 4 and the compressed snap-fasteners are clamped, then the first transfer mechanism 3 transfers the snap-fastener compressing mechanism 4 to the product placing station 6, and the snap-fastener compressing mechanism 4 inserts the compressed snap-fasteners into the slot of the product. Finally, after being detected by the detecting mechanism 7, the product with the snap-fasteners installed is blanked through the blanking mechanism 8, thereby completing the process of inserting the snap-fasteners (such as Figure 2 shown) into the product (such as Figure 1 shown as A in the figure), with high automation and high assembly efficiency.
[0035] Among them, the buckle compression station 5 includes a support 51 arranged on the machine table 1, a buckle groove 52 arranged at the top end of the support 51, and an upward pushing assembly arranged on the support 51. The buckle groove 52 is used to receive the buckles from the vibrating hopper mechanism 2, and the upward pushing assembly is used to push the buckles in the buckle groove 52 upward. Among them, the upward pushing assembly includes a first ejector rod 53 and a third driving member for driving the first ejector rod 53 to move up and down. The first ejector rod 53 is slidably arranged on the support 51, and the first ejector rod 53 is placed below the buckle groove 52. Driven by the third driving member, the buckle compression mechanism 4 includes a mounting seat 41, a chuck 42 arranged at the bottom of the mounting seat 41, and a downward pressing assembly. An opening-downward clamping groove is arranged on the chuck 42, and the downward pressing assembly is used to push the compressed buckles in the clamping groove downward. Among them, the downward pressing assembly includes a second ejector rod 43 and a fourth driving member for driving the second ejector rod 43 to move up and down. The second ejector rod 43 is slidably arranged on the mounting seat 41, and the bottom end of the second ejector rod 43 passes through the chuck 42. In this way, the buckles from the vibrating hopper mechanism 2 are placed at the opening groove 52, and the support 51 moves to directly above the mounting seat 41, making the chuck 42 directly opposite to the buckle groove 52. At this time, the upward pushing assembly pushes the buckle upward. Since the width of the clamping groove is smaller than that of the buckle, the buckle is compressed until it enters the clamping groove (as Figure 5 shown). At this time, the compression and loading of the buckle are completed. Then, the first transfer mechanism 3 transfers the buckle compression mechanism 4 to the groove of the product. At this time, the downward pressing assembly presses the buckle downward until both ends of the buckle correspond to the through holes on both sides of the groove of the product. At this time, the buckle resumes and is clamped in the product.
[0036] Refer to Figure 3 shown. Among them, the first transfer mechanism 3 consists of a first linear module. The first linear module extends from the buckle compression station 5 to the product placement station 6. The mounting seat 41 is arranged on the first linear module. In this way, the buckle compression mechanism 4 is transferred from the buckle compression station 5 to the product placement station 6.
[0037] Refer to Figure 7 shown. In order to improve the assembly efficiency of the buckle, the product placement station 6 includes a sliding seat 61, two product support seats 62 arranged on the sliding seat 61, and a first driving member. The sliding seat 61 is slidably arranged on the machine table 1, and the first driving member is used to drive the sliding seat 61 to reciprocate horizontally on the machine table 1. In this way, by arranging two product support seats 62, two products can be placed simultaneously to improve the assembly efficiency.
[0038] Refer to Figure 7As shown, due to the situation where the buckle is not accurately assembled on the product, in order to distinguish between good products (products with accurate buckle assembly) and defective products (products with inaccurate buckle assembly), the detection mechanism 7 includes a bracket 71 provided on the machine table 1 and two infrared sensors 72 provided on the bracket 71. The two infrared sensors 72 are distributed in the horizontal direction, and the detection ends of the two infrared sensors 72 face the horizontal direction. Since both ends of the accurately assembled buckle will protrude from the product, the detection height of the two infrared sensors 72 is the same as the height of both ends of the buckle (both ends of the buckle placed inside the product). When the two infrared sensors 72 simultaneously detect both ends of the buckle, the buckle is accurately assembled; otherwise, it is inaccurately assembled. And the sliding seat 61 is driven by the first driving member to slide on the machine table 1, so that the two product support seats 62 are alternately placed at the detection positions of the two infrared sensors 72 to detect the products on the two product support seats 62, so as to obtain information on whether the buckle is accurately installed.
[0039] Reference Figure 8 As shown, the blanking mechanism 8 includes a second linear module 81, a clamping head 82, and a material collection component. The clamping head 82 is provided on the second linear module 81. The second linear module 81 extends from the product placement station 6 to the material collection component. The product is clamped by the clamping head 82, and the clamping head 82 slides on the second linear module 81 to transfer the product with the assembled buckle at the product placement station to the material collection component. And in order to improve the transfer efficiency, the clamping head 82 is composed of two groups of jaws, and the two groups of jaws correspond to the two product support seats 62 one by one to achieve the purpose of transferring two products at one time. And the material collection component includes a good product frame 83, a defective product frame 84, and a guiding component. The good product frame 83 and the defective product frame 84 are both provided on the machine table 1. The guiding component is used to convey the products from the clamping head 82 to the good product frame 83 or the defective product frame 84. When the detection mechanism 7 detects a defective product, the guiding component guides the defective product from the clamping head 82 to the defective product frame 84. When the detection mechanism 7 detects a good product, the guiding component guides the good product from the clamping head 82 to the good product frame 84.
[0040] Reference Figure 8 As shown, among them, the specific structure of the guiding component includes a support frame 85, a guiding track 86, and a second driving member. The support frame 85 is provided between the tops of the good product frame 83 and the defective product frame 84. The middle part of the guiding track 86 is rotatably provided at the top end of the support frame 85. The second driving member is used to drive the guiding track 86 to tilt to one side of the good product frame 83 or the defective product frame 84. When it is necessary to place the good product clamped by the clamping head 82 into the good product frame 84, the second driving member.
[0041] Reference Figure 1As shown, the vibrating loading tray mechanism 2 includes a vibrating tray 21 and a loading track 22. The loading track 22 extends from the discharge port of the vibrating tray 21 to the buckle groove 52. In this way, uninterrupted loading of the buckle is completed, further improving the assembly efficiency of the buckle.
[0042] The working principle of the utility model is as follows: during assembly, the buckle is transported to the buckle compression station 5 by the vibrating loading tray mechanism 2, the buckle at the buckle compression station 5 is compressed and clamped by the buckle compression mechanism 4, and then the first transfer mechanism 3 transfers the buckle compression mechanism 4 to the product placement station 6, the buckle compression mechanism 4 inserts the compressed buckle into the groove of the product, and finally it is inspected by the detection mechanism 7, and the product equipped with the buckle after the inspection is unloaded by the unloading mechanism 8, thereby completing the process of installing the buckle into the product, with a high degree of automation and high assembly efficiency.
[0043] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present application, and the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. It is understood that other improvements and changes directly derived or associated by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and concept of the present invention should be considered to be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
