Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of electronic transformer assembly, and particularly relates to an automatic assembly device for a planar transformer. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of electronic technology, planar transformers are increasingly widely used in various electronic devices. However, there are many problems in the assembly of current planar transformers. The traditional assembly of planar transformers mainly relies on manual operation, which leads to low efficiency and is difficult to meet the growing market demand. At the same time, manual operation is also prone to unstable quality, and it is difficult to ensure the consistency of products.

[0003] To solve these problems, a Chinese invention patent discloses a planar transformer assembly device (application number CN2021102150272), which adopts a linear assembly line method and occupies a large space. Moreover, the feeding module of this device has a single structure, and each feeding module needs to be equipped with a feeding manipulator, which further increases the space occupied by the assembly device and is not conducive to efficient layout and production in a limited production site. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a new type of planar transformer assembly device to improve production efficiency, ensure product quality and reduce the space occupied by the device. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] In view of this, the utility model provides an automatic assembly device for a planar transformer, aiming to solve the problems of large space occupation and low efficiency in the current assembly of planar transformers.

[0005] To achieve the above object, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:

[0008] The translation mechanism includes a first X-axis driving component fixed on the first horizontal substrate and a first X-axis sliding seat slidably arranged on the first X-axis driving component;

[0009] The material placing component includes a material placing plate located directly above the first X-axis sliding seat and several blocking rods movably penetrating the material placing plate along the Z-axis and fixed on the first X-axis sliding seat.

[0010] The first horizontal substrate has first through holes that correspond one-to-one and are coaxial with the top push rods. The first X-axis slide has second through holes that correspond one-to-one and are slidably coaxial with the top push rods. The bottom surface of the material placement plate has blind holes that correspond one-to-one and are coaxial with the second through holes. Wherein, when the first through holes and the second through holes are vertically coaxial, each top push rod rises with the Z-axis slide, sequentially passes through each second through hole, and is pushed into the blind hole to push the material placement plate upward. Each top push rod descends with the Z-axis slide, sequentially disengages from each blind hole and each second through hole to unlock the material placement assembly and the translation mechanism.

[0011] To better implement the above technical solution, optionally, the driver of the Z-axis drive assembly is a stepper motor.

Detailed implementation mode

[0033] The technical solution of the present utility model will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. Among them, the same components are denoted by the same reference numerals.

[0034] Embodiment 1

[0035] Please refer to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 6 and Figure 7 , an embodiment of the present utility model discloses a flat transformer assembly device, including an assembly station 100 and a copper sheet loading module 200. The copper sheet loading module 200 includes a lifting mechanism, a translation mechanism and a material placement component;

[0036] As Figure 6 shown, a rotating mechanism is provided below the assembly station 100. The rotating mechanism drives the assembly station 100 to rotate at a preset angle. In this embodiment, both the assembly station 100 and the rotating mechanism are mature mechanisms in the prior art, and will not be elaborated in this embodiment.

[0037] As Figure 1 shown, the lifting mechanism includes a Z-axis drive assembly 210, a Z-axis slide 220 slidably disposed on one side of the Z-axis drive assembly 210, and a first horizontal substrate 230 horizontally fixed at the top of the Z-axis drive assembly 210. At least two top push rods 240 are vertically fixed on the upper end surface of the Z-axis slide 220;

[0038] Specifically, the Z-axis drive assembly 210 adopts a rail drive mechanism in the prior art. The driver of the Z-axis drive assembly 210 is a stepper motor 211. The stepper motor 211 drives the Z-axis slide 220 to slide up and down on the rail of the Z-axis drive assembly 210. The Z-axis drive assembly 210 has mature technology and is convenient for assembly. The precise control of the stepper motor 211 ensures the lifting accuracy of the top push rod 240, so that the supply height of the copper sheet can be accurately adjusted, improving the accuracy of the subsequent pick-and-place manipulator 600 to grab the copper sheet.

[0039] AsFigure 1 and Figure 2 As shown in Figure 2 , the translation mechanism includes a first X-axis driving assembly 250 fixedly arranged on the first horizontal substrate 230 and a first X-axis sliding seat 260 slidably arranged on the first X-axis driving assembly 250. Specifically, the driver of the first X-axis driving assembly 250 is a cylinder, and the first X-axis sliding seat 260 is driven by the cylinder to slide along the X-axis, realizing the precise movement of the material placing assembly in the horizontal direction, which is convenient for moving to a preset position to perform the supplementary stacking operation of copper sheets after the copper sheets are used up.

[0040] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown in Figure 2 , the material placing assembly includes a material placing plate 270 located directly above the first X-axis sliding seat 260 and several retaining rods 280 that movably penetrate the material placing plate 270 along the Z-axis and are fixedly arranged on the first X-axis sliding seat 260. The first X-axis sliding seat 260 and the several retaining rods 280 enclose a material placing space with an upper opening, and copper sheets are stacked vertically in the material placing space.

[0041] As Figures 1-3 As shown in Figures 1-3 , the first horizontal substrate 230 has first through holes 231 that correspond one-to-one and are coaxial with the top push rods 240, the first X-axis sliding seat 260 has second through holes 261 that correspond one-to-one and are slidably coaxial with the top push rods 240, and the bottom surface of the material placing plate 270 has blind holes 271 that correspond one-to-one and are coaxial with the second through holes 261. Among them, when the first through holes 231 and the second through holes 261 are coaxially aligned vertically, each top push rod 240 can rise with the Z-axis sliding seat 220 and sequentially pass through each second through hole 261 and then push into the blind hole 271 to push the material placing plate 270 to rise. When each top push rod 240 descends with the Z-axis sliding seat 220, it sequentially disengages from each blind hole 271 and each second through hole 261 to unlock the material placing assembly and the translation mechanism.

[0042] Specifically, when the copper sheets are supplied normally, after the material-grabbing robot 600 grabs a piece of copper sheet from the top of the material-loading space, the Z-axis drive assembly 210 drives the Z-axis slide 220 to rise to a preset height. During the rising process, the Z-axis slide 220 drives the push rod 240 to rise synchronously to push the material-loading plate 270 to rise synchronously until the copper sheets in the material-loading space reach the preset height. The above-mentioned actions are repeated until all the copper sheets in the material-loading space are used up. After that, the Z-axis drive assembly 210 drives the Z-axis slide 220 to move downward until the top end of the push rod 240 is out of the blind hole 271 and the second through hole 261, and the material-loading space is filled with copper sheets. The material plate 270 falls to the lowest position under the action of gravity, and the first X-axis driving component 250 drives the first X-axis slide 260 to move backward to the preset position. At this time, copper sheets can be stacked in the material storage space. After the material storage space is full of copper sheets, the first X-axis driving component 250 drives the first X-axis slide 260 to move forward until the second through hole 261 is coaxial with the first through hole 231, and then the Z-axis driving component 210 drives the Z-axis slide 220 to rise, until the top end of the push rod 240 passes through the second through hole 261 and is pushed into the blind hole 271 in turn, and the material storage plate 270 is driven to rise and feed according to the preset program.

[0043] In the embodiment of the utility model, the feeding amplitude of the material placing plate 270 each time it rises is consistent with the thickness of the copper sheet, so that the position of the copper sheet grasped by the material taking robot 600 each time is accurate, thereby improving the grasping accuracy and stability.

[0044] like Figure 2 As shown, there are four push rods 240, and they are respectively located at the corners of the top surface of the Z-axis slide 220. The top of each push rod 240 is a rounded tip, and the corresponding material placement plate 270 is also square-shaped. The distribution design of the four push rods 240 allows the material placement plate 270 to be evenly stressed during the rising process, avoiding the tilting or displacement of the copper sheet due to uneven force, and further improving the stability of the copper sheet supply.

[0045] In an embodiment of the utility model, each baffle rod 280 and the material placement plate 270 enclose two material placement spaces for placing copper sheets stacked up and down. The provision of two material placement spaces increases the storage capacity of copper sheets, reduces the number of frequent replenishment of copper sheets, reduces the labor intensity of operators, and improves production continuity.

[0046] In an embodiment of the utility model, there are two copper sheet loading modules 200, one of which is used to place positive copper sheets, and the other is used to place negative copper sheets. Both copper sheet loading modules 200 are arranged around the assembly station 100, making the supply of copper sheets more convenient and efficient, thereby improving the overall working efficiency of the assembly equipment.

[0047] Example 2

[0048] See also Figures 4-7As shown, it further includes an epoxy sheet pushing mechanism 300. The epoxy sheet pushing mechanism 300 includes a second horizontal substrate 310, a second X-axis driving assembly 320, a second X-axis sliding seat 330, and a barrel 340. The second X-axis driving assembly 320 is fixedly arranged on the top surface of the second horizontal substrate 310 along the length direction of the second horizontal substrate 310. A second X-axis sliding seat 330 is slidably arranged on the guide rail of the second X-axis driving assembly 320. A stop pushing plate 350 is horizontally arranged on the top surface of the second X-axis sliding seat 330. A material placing groove 351 is arranged on the front top surface of the stop pushing plate 350. The barrel 340 is fixedly arranged above the stop pushing plate 350 of the top plate. The material placing groove 351 moves with the stop pushing plate 350 to be vertically aligned with the discharge port of the barrel 340. The second X-axis driving assembly 320 drives the second X-axis sliding seat 330 to slide on the guide rail, driving the stop pushing plate 350 to move, realizing the precise alignment of the material placing groove 351 with the discharge port of the barrel 340 and the stable supply of epoxy sheets.

[0049] In the embodiment of the present invention, the stop pushing plate 350 is in sliding sealing cooperation with the discharge port of the barrel 340. When the material placing groove 351 is vertically aligned with the discharge port of the barrel 340, the epoxy sheets in the barrel 340 fall into the material placing groove 351, so that a single epoxy sheet is clamped in the material placing groove 351, ensuring the supply of epoxy sheets one by one, improving the accuracy and stability of the supply. The stop pushing plate 350 reciprocates, enabling the epoxy sheets in the barrel 340 to be continuously supplied to the assembly station 100.

[0050] In the embodiment of the present invention, the outer side wall of the barrel 340 is connected to the side part of the top surface of the second horizontal substrate 310 through a connecting block 360. The connecting block 360 does not affect the normal feeding of the barrel 340. The upper end of the barrel 340 is an open end, which is convenient for replenishing copper sheets into the barrel 340.

[0051] Embodiment 3

[0052] As Figure 6 and Figure 7 shown, it further includes a coil lifting and loading module 400 and a feeder supply mechanism 500 arranged around the assembly station 100. The feeder supply mechanism 500 is used to supply insulating films to the assembly station 100. The structure of the coil lifting and loading module 400 is the same as that of the copper sheet loading module 200, and will not be elaborated here.

[0053] For a flat transformer assembly device according to an embodiment of the present invention, the coil lifting and loading module 400, the feeder supply mechanism 500, the copper sheet loading module 200, and the epoxy sheet pushing mechanism 300 are circumferentially distributed around the assembly station 100, making the working range of the picking manipulator 600 more concentrated, reducing the picking time, and improving the production efficiency. At the same time, the compact layout saves space, making the device more suitable for use in a limited production site.

[0054] Above, the technical solution of the present utility model has been introduced in detail in combination with specific embodiments. The described specific embodiments are used to help understand the idea of the present utility model.
