[0019] To deepen the understanding of the utility model, the following will further elaborate on the utility model in combination with embodiments. These embodiments are only used to explain the utility model and do not constitute a limitation to the protection scope of the utility model.

[0020] According to Figures 1-4 as shown, this embodiment proposes an automatic assembly machine for automobile fuel tanks, including an assembly and splicing mechanism 1 and a feeding component 2. A feeding component 2 for bolt assembly is arranged on one end side of the assembly and splicing mechanism 1, and a clamping and discharging component 3 for bolt assembly is arranged on the other end side of the assembly and splicing mechanism 1;

[0021] The feeding component 2 includes a side substrate 201, a middle elevated frame 202, a camera 203, a bushing frame 204, a drive chassis 205, a roller rod 206, and a conveyor belt 207. The side substrate 201 is arranged on one end side of the assembly splicing mechanism 1. Above the middle of the side substrate 201, there is a middle elevated frame 202 for installing the camera 203. Above the side of the side substrate 201, there is a bushing frame 204. At the inner sides of both ends of the bushing frame 204, there are roller rods 206 connected to the output end of the drive chassis 205, and the conveyor belt 207 is wound around the roller rods 206.

[0022] The bushing frames 204 are symmetrically distributed with respect to the central axis of the side substrate 201, and the central axis of the middle elevated frame 202 and the central axis of the side substrate 201 are in the same plane.

[0023] In this embodiment, during use, the camera 203 on the middle elevated frame 202 is used to monitor the surrounding environment in real time, and the drive chassis 205 on the bushing frame 204 outputs power to drive the output end to operate. When the drive chassis 205 outputs power and operates, the rotation of the roller rods 206 can drive the conveyor belt 207 around it to place the parts on the conveyor belt 207 to achieve the transmission effect.

[0024] The assembly splicing mechanism 1 includes a cushion elevated frame 101, a grooved substrate 102, a lead screw motor 103, a lead screw group 104, a sliding block 105, an electric rotary seat 106, a robotic arm 107, a robotic fixture 108, an electric screwdriver 109, a tool bit 1010, and a spare screwdriver 1011. The top side of the cushion elevated frame 101 is provided with a grooved substrate 102, and on the grooved substrate 102, there is a lead screw group 104 connected to the output end of the lead screw motor 103, and the lead screw group 104 is threadedly connected to the sliding block 105.

[0025] In this embodiment, when the parts are transported to a suitable position, the lead screw motor 103 on the grooved substrate 102 outputs power to drive the output end to operate. In this way, when the lead screw motor 103 outputs power to drive the lead screw group 104 to operate, the sliding block 105 runs to a suitable target position.

[0026] The top side of the sliding block 105 is provided with an electric rotary seat 106, and above the electric rotary seat 106, there is a robotic arm 107. One end of a group of the robotic arm 107 is provided with a robotic fixture 108, and the other end of the other group of the robotic arm 107 is provided with an electric screwdriver 109. Above the middle of the grooved substrate 102, there is a tool bit 1010 for installing the spare screwdriver 1011.

[0027] In this embodiment, after the slider 105 runs to the appropriate target position, the electric rotating base 106 outputs power to drive the robotic arm 107 to run. In this way, the operation of the robotic arm 107 can drive the mechanical fixture 108 to clamp and transfer the components to the mounting plate 3010 for splicing.

[0028] The clamping and discharging component 3 includes a bolt base 301, a slide bar 302, a slider 303, a car plate 304, a moving wheel 305, a rotating base 306, a swing arm 307, an end plate 308, a strip rack 309, a mounting plate 3010, a hinge base 3011, a limit clamping plate 3012, and a pneumatic telescopic rod 3013. The bolt base 301 is bolted to both ends of the other side of the grooved substrate 102. A slider 303 is slidably connected to the bolt base 301 through a slide bar 302. And a car plate 304 for installing a moving wheel 305 is arranged on one side of the slider 303. A rotating base 306 is arranged on the top side of the car plate 304. And a swing arm 307 is arranged on the top side of the rotating base 306.

[0029] In this embodiment, after the product is processed, when the output end of the slider 303 extends and retracts, the car plate 304 and the moving wheel 305 move to the unloading location. Through the rotation and telescopic adjustment of the rotating base 306 and the swing arm 307, the product on the mounting plate 3010 is unloaded, which is convenient for new processing and assembly after unloading.

[0030] End plates 308 are arranged at both ends of the swing arm 307. And a strip rack 309 is arranged on the top side of the end plate 308. A mounting plate 3010 is arranged on the top side of the strip rack 309. Limit clamping plates 3012 connecting the output end of the pneumatic telescopic rod 3013 are hinged to both ends of the strip rack 309 through hinge bases 3011.

[0031] In this embodiment, when deep splicing is required, the electric rotating base 106 outputs power to drive the robotic arm 107 to run. In this way, the operation of the robotic arm 107 can drive the electric screwdriver 109 to deeply connect the product. And after the pneumatic telescopic rod 3013 on the strip rack 309 outputs power to drive the output end to run, the limit clamping plate 3012 at the output end of the pneumatic telescopic rod 3013 clamps and positions the product, so as to achieve the effect of positioning and clamping.

[0032] The working principle of the automatic assembly machine for automobile fuel tanks is as follows: When in use, the camera 203 on the middle elevated rack 202 monitors the surrounding environment in real time, and the drive chassis 205 on the bushing rack 204 outputs power to drive the output end to operate. After the drive chassis 205 outputs power and operates, the rotation of the roller rod 206 can drive the conveyor belt 207 to place the parts on the conveyor belt 207 to achieve the transmission effect. When the parts are transmitted to the appropriate position, the lead screw motor 103 on the slotted substrate 102 outputs power to drive the output end to operate. In this way, after the lead screw motor 103 outputs power and drives the lead screw group 104 to operate, the slider 105 runs to the appropriate target position. After the slider 105 runs to the appropriate target position, the electric rotary seat 106 outputs power to drive the robotic arm 107 to operate. In this way, the operation of the robotic arm 107 can drive the mechanical fixture 108 to clamp and transfer the parts to the carrier plate 3010 for splicing. When deep splicing is required, the electric rotary seat 106 outputs power to drive the robotic arm 107 to operate. In this way, the operation of the robotic arm 107 can drive the electric screwdriver 109 to deeply connect the product. And after the pneumatic telescopic rod 3013 on the bar rack 309 outputs power to drive the output end to operate, the limit clamping plate 3012 at the output end of the pneumatic telescopic rod 3013 clamps and positions the product, so as to achieve the effect of positioning and clamping. When the product processing is completed, after the output end of the slider 303 extends and retracts, it moves to the unloading location under the action of the vehicle plate 304 and the moving wheels 305. Through the rotation and telescopic adjustment of the rotary base 306 and the swing arm 307, the product on the carrier plate 3010 is unloaded, which is convenient for new processing and assembly after unloading.
