[0019] As Figure 1 shown, a connector orientation pin insertion device includes a workbench 1 and a connector feeding mechanism 2, a pin insertion mechanism 3, and a die bar positioning mechanism 4 arranged on the workbench 1. Among them, there are two sets of the feeding mechanism 2 and the pin insertion mechanism 3 respectively, which operate alternately to improve the pin insertion efficiency.

[0020] Specifically, in combination with Figure 2 the shown connector feeding mechanism, it includes a vibrating screen 201, a positioning bar 206, a stop bar 205, a first horizontal slide rail 207, and a first servo motor 209. The outlet end of the discharge channel 202 of the vibrating screen is provided with a guiding block 203 through which a single connector 5 can pass. One end of the guiding block 203 is provided with a photoelectric switch 204. The positioning bar 206 is correspondingly arranged at the outlet end of the guiding block 203. The positioning bar 206 is slidably connected to the first horizontal slide rail 207 through a sliding seat 208 and is connected to the first servo motor 209. The first servo motor 209 can drive the positioning bar 206 to slide horizontally along the first horizontal slide rail 207. A number of positioning slots into which the connector 5 can be inserted are opened on one side of the positioning bar 206. The stop bar 205 is correspondingly arranged on one side of the positioning slots.

[0021] Specifically, in combination with Figure 3 the shown pin insertion mechanism, it includes a column, a front and rear slide rail 302, a front and rear sliding seat 303, a front and rear moving cylinder 301, a lifting slide rail 304, a lifting seat 306, a lifting cylinder 305, a jaw cylinder 307, and jaws 308. The front and rear slide rail 302 is fixed on the column. The front and rear sliding seat 303 is slidably connected to the front and rear slide rail 302 and is connected to the front and rear moving cylinder 301. The front and rear moving cylinder 301 can drive the front and rear sliding seat 303 to move back and forth along the front and rear slide rail 302. The lifting slide rail 304 is fixed on the front and rear sliding seat 303. The lifting seat 303 is slidably connected to the lifting slide rail 304 and is connected to the lifting cylinder 305. The lifting cylinder 305 can drive the lifting seat 303 to move up and down along the lifting slide rail 304. The jaw cylinder 307 has a row and is fixed to the bottom end of the lifting seat 306 and is connected to the jaws 308. The jaw cylinder 307 can drive the jaws 308 to clamp or release the connector.

[0022] Specifically, in combination with Figure 4The shown die bar positioning mechanism includes a second transverse slide rail 402, a second servo motor 401 and a die bar positioning seat 403. The die bar positioning seat 403 is slidably connected to the second transverse slide rail 402 and is connected to the second servo motor 401. The second servo motor 401 can drive the die bar positioning seat 403 to slide horizontally along the second transverse slide rail 402. A connector guiding mechanism is provided on the die bar positioning seat 403. The connector guiding mechanism includes a set of oppositely arranged guiding cylinders 404 and guiding plates 405 respectively connected to the guiding cylinders 404. A plurality of arc grooves are respectively formed on the opposite sides of the two guiding plates 405. The guiding cylinders 404 can drive the guiding plates 405 to move back and forth. When the arc grooves of the two guiding plates 405 are combined, a guiding through hole for guiding the connector 5 can be formed.

[0023] Combined with Figures 1-4 As shown, during processing, the vibrating screen 201 automatically screens. The connectors 5 enter the guiding blocks 203 one by one in a row along the discharge channel 202. The connector 5 at the end of the guiding block 203 is pushed into one of the positioning slots of the positioning bar 206. The photoelectric switch 204 senses whether the direction of the connector 5 is correct. If it is incorrect, an alarm is issued. If it is correct, the first servo motor 209 drives the positioning bar 206 to slide horizontally along the first transverse slide rail 207, so that another connector 5 enters another positioning slot, so that each positioning slot of the positioning bar 206 is embedded with a connector 5. The stop bar 205 can block the connector 5 to prevent it from falling out of the positioning slot. When the positioning bar 206 is filled with connectors 5, the front and rear moving cylinder 301 drives the front and rear sliding seat 303 to move backward along the front and rear slide rails 302, the lifting cylinder 305 drives the lifting seat 303 to descend along the lifting slide rail 304, and each jaw cylinder 307 drives each jaw 308 to clamp each connector 5. Subsequently, the connector 5 is sent above the die bar positioning mechanism. The second servo motor 401 drives the die bar positioning seat 403 to slide horizontally along the second transverse slide rail 402 to below the jaw 308. The two guiding cylinders 404 drive the two guiding plates 405 to move towards each other, so that the arc grooves of the two guiding plates 405 are combined to form a guiding through hole for guiding the connector 5. At this time, the lifting cylinder 305 drives the lifting seat 303 to descend, and the connectors 5 on the jaws 308 can be inserted into the corresponding holes of the die bar 6 together. The two sets of pin inserting mechanisms are alternately inserted, and the insertion of two kinds of pins or the insertion of pins in two different directions can be realized.
