When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be deemed that such combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection required by this application.

[0028] The present application proposes a laminating device 100, which is used to perform a laminating operation on a component to be pressed to complete the assembly of the component to be pressed, so as to realize the automated production of the assembly of parts. Figure 1 to Figure 2 In the embodiment of the present application, the pressing device 100 includes a carrier 11 circulation device 10 and a pressing device 20 .

[0029] The carrier 11 circulation device 10 includes multiple carriers 11 and a driving mechanism 12. The driving mechanism 12 is respectively connected to the multiple carriers 11 in transmission to drive the multiple carriers 11 to circulate along a preset trajectory. The preset trajectory is provided with a processing position. The carrier 11 is used to carry the components to be pressed on the processing position. The pressing device 20 is fixedly arranged above the processing position for performing pressing operations on the components to be pressed on the processing position.

[0030] The preset track is usually annular to facilitate the circulation of multiple carriers 11. Sufficient safety gaps are usually reserved between the carriers 11 to prevent the pressing device 20 from causing unnecessary interference to the components to be pressed on another carrier 11 when pressing the components to be pressed on one carrier 11.

[0031] The carrier 11 can be used to carry various components to be pressed, for example: components to be pressed formed by pre-assembling button caps and button brackets, and components to be pressed formed by pre-assembling cigarette holder components and shell components. For components to be pressed in different shapes, carriers 11 of different shapes can be used.

[0032] It should be noted that when using the laminating device 100, the driving mechanism 12 does not continuously drive the multiple carriers 11 to circulate, but drives the multiple carriers 11 to circulate intermittently, that is, the driving mechanism 12 drives a carrier 11 carrying the component to be pressed to the processing position, stops driving the multiple carriers 11 to flow, and after the laminating device 20 completes the laminating operation on the component to be pressed at the processing position, it drives the next carrier 11 to carry the component to be pressed to the processing position, and repeats the cycle.

[0033] The present application adopts the above-mentioned technical scheme, and its driving mechanism 12 is respectively connected to the plurality of carriers 11 in transmission, so as to drive the plurality of carriers 11 to circulate along the preset trajectory, so as to carry the components to be pressed to the processing position through the plurality of carriers 11, and use the pressing device 20 to press the components to be pressed on the processing position to achieve assembly. It can be seen that compared with the prior art, the technical scheme of the present application does not require manual operation, and uses a plurality of carriers 11 to carry the components to be pressed to the processing position, and the pressing device 20 performs the pressing operation on the components to be pressed. In this way, the automatic assembly of the components to be pressed is achieved, the assembly efficiency of the components to be pressed is improved, and then the production efficiency of the product is improved. In addition, since there is no need for manual operation of the pressing device 100, the problem of personal injury caused by poor operation of workers is avoided.

[0034] Considering that when the pressing device 20 performs the pressing operation on the component to be pressed, a certain force needs to be applied to the component to be pressed to complete the assembly. Figure 1 As shown, the carrier 11 circulation device 10 further includes a frame 13, the frame 13 is provided with a circular track, a plurality of carriers 11 are movably mounted on the circular track, and a driving mechanism 12 is respectively connected to the plurality of carriers 11 for driving the plurality of carriers 11 to move along the circular track.

[0035] With such arrangement, when the pressing device 20 performs pressing operation on the components to be pressed, the carrier 11 can transmit the force to the frame 13 through the annular track, dispersing the force on the carrier 11. In addition, the annular track can make the circulation flow of multiple carriers 11 more comfortable and stable.

[0036] In some examples, such as Figure 1 As shown, the driving mechanism 12 includes a servo motor and a transmission chain, a plurality of carriers 11 are connected to the transmission chain, and the servo motor is transmission-connected to the transmission chain to drive the plurality of carriers 11 to move through the transmission chain.

[0037] Such an arrangement can improve the accuracy of the circulation of multiple carriers 11 along the preset trajectory, that is, the servo motor can accurately control the carrier 11 carrying the component to be pressed to stay at the processing position, so that the pressing device 20 can perform the pressing operation on the component to be pressed.

[0038] In addition, in some examples, the driving mechanism 12 further includes a position detector, which is used to detect the positional relationship between the carrier 11 and the processing position, and the position detector is also electrically connected to the servo motor, which drives the multiple carriers 11 to circulate along the preset trajectory according to the detection information of the position detector, so as to further improve the accuracy of the circulation of the multiple carriers 11 along the preset trajectory.

[0039] In some examples, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the annular track has a horizontal section parallel to the horizontal plane, and the horizontal section is located below the pressing device 20 and is provided with a processing position.

[0040] Such arrangement is intended to further facilitate the carrier 11 to transmit the force to the frame 13 through the annular track. In addition, it is convenient to add components to be pressed to the carrier 11 in the horizontal section, wherein the components to be pressed can be added to the carrier 11 by a robot or manual operation.

[0041] In some examples, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the circular track also has an arc segment, which is connected to one end of the horizontal segment located downstream in the flow direction of the carrier 11, and the arc segment is provided with a material discharge position; the pressing device 100 also includes a material discharge device, which is used to collect the product carried on the carrier 11 at the material discharge position. The product refers to the component to be pressed that has completed the pressing operation.

[0042] Such arrangement is intended to utilize the unloading device to quickly collect products, so as to improve the working efficiency of the pressing device 100.

[0043] In some examples, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the unloading device includes a unloading piece 31, which is arranged obliquely below the unloading position so that the product falls into a unloading chute 32 of the unloading piece 31 under the action of gravity, and the unloading chute 32 is arranged obliquely.

[0044] With such arrangement, the unloading device can easily collect the product without using external force. In addition, the unloading device has a simple structure, is easy to manufacture, and has a low manufacturing cost.

[0045] Of course, in other embodiments, the unloading device may include a robot arm to directly grab the product through the robot arm.

[0046] In some examples, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, one end of the unloading member 31 is movably mounted on the frame 13 and can move relative to the frame 13 to adjust the inclination angle of the unloading chute 32. In this way, the sliding speed of the product in the unloading chute 32 can be controlled by adjusting the inclination angle of the unloading chute 32. In addition, a receiving tray is usually provided at one end of the unloading chute 32 away from the unloading position to store the product, so that the unloading chute 32 can be adapted to different receiving trays by adjusting the inclination angle of the unloading chute 32.

[0047] In some examples, such as Figure 1As shown, the pressing device 20 includes a driving device 21 and a pressing block 22, and the driving device 21 is in transmission connection with the pressing block 22 to drive the pressing block 22 to approach or move away from the processing position in the vertical direction. In this way, when the carrier 11 carries the component to be pressed at the processing position, the driving device 21 drives the pressing block 22 to approach the processing position in the vertical direction to perform a pressing operation on the component to be pressed. After the pressing operation is completed, the driving device 21 drives the pressing block 22 to move away from the processing position in the vertical direction to avoid the carrier 11.

[0048] In some examples, such as Figure 1 As shown, the driving device 21 is fixedly arranged above the processing position through the support frame 23, and the pressing block 22 is movably installed on the support frame 23 through the guide column 24. The pressing block 22 is also connected to the output end of the driving device 21 so as to approach or move away from the processing position in the vertical direction under the drive of the driving device 21. Such a setting is intended to ensure the stability of the pressing block 22 when it moves in the vertical direction.

[0049] In some embodiments, the pressing block 22 is detachably connected to the output end of the driving device 21. Specifically, the pressing block 22 can be connected to the output end of the driving device 21 by threaded connection, snap connection, etc. In this way, different pressing blocks 22 can be easily replaced.

[0050] In some embodiments, the driving mechanism 12 also includes a bolt, and the support frame 23 is provided with a through hole. One end of the bolt passes through the through hole and is threadedly connected to the pressure block 22, and the other end of the bolt is movably abutted against the periphery of the through hole, so as to control the travel range of the pressure block 22 in the vertical direction by adjusting the threaded connection between the bolt and the pressure block 22.

[0051] In some examples, such as Figure 1 As shown, preferably, the driving device 21 includes a cylinder, and the output end of the cylinder is fixedly connected to the pressure block 22.

[0052] The above description is only an optional embodiment of the present application, and does not limit the patent scope of the present application. All equivalent structural transformations made by using the contents of the present application specification and drawings under the inventive concept of the present application, or directly / indirectly applied in other related technical fields are included in the patent protection scope of the present application.
