[0035] In the related art, the cut terminals are taken out manually. However, manual operation not only has a high labor intensity, easily causing fatigue to the operator, but also has obvious limitations in terms of precision control, speed and consistency, resulting in low production efficiency and an increase in the defective product rate. Especially when dealing with a large number of tiny terminals with a high-density layout, the limitations of manual operation are more prominent, easily causing terminal deformation, damage or position deviation, seriously affecting the smooth progress of subsequent processes such as welding and assembly.

[0036] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the double driving device reduces manual intervention, lowers the labor cost and losses caused by human errors, improves the production efficiency, reduces the dependence on manual operation, and meets the requirements of modern high-speed and large-batch production.

[0037] In Figure 1 the example, an automated terminal extraction device is provided. Among them, the terminal extraction device is used to extract the terminals placed in the first area 100 within a material taking space 101; the terminal extraction device includes:

[0038] A first driving device 200, connected to a taking device 300 for extracting terminals, is configured to drive the taking device 300 to move between a discharging position and a material taking position on a movement path; wherein, when the taking device 300 is at the material taking position, the taking device 300 is in a posture suitable for entering the material taking space 101;

[0039] A second driving device 400, connected to and capable of driving the first driving device 200, is configured to move closer to or away from the material taking space 101, so that when approaching the material taking space 101 to reach the material taking position, the taking device 300 at the material taking position can extract the terminals in the first area 100; and when moving away from the material taking space 101 to make the taking device 300 after taking materials escape from the material taking space 101, the taking device 300 has sufficient movement space to be driven by the first driving device 200 from the material taking position to the discharging position.

[0040] Specifically, in some embodiments, the taking device 300 may include a clamping mechanism, which can automatically adjust the clamping force according to different terminals to adapt to terminals of different sizes and shapes and reduce the risk of damage. The first driving device 200 can make the taking device 300 smoothly switch between the discharging and material taking positions along a predetermined path.

[0041] When material taking is required, the first driving device 200 ensures that the taking device 300 is adjusted to an angle and posture suitable for entering the material taking space 101, which is convenient for smoothly entering the material taking space 101 and accurately taking terminals without disturbing the surrounding environment.

[0042] In some embodiments, the discharging position enables the taking device 300 to be accurately docked with subsequent automated equipment such as a conveyor belt, a robotic arm or other material handling devices. It is ensured that each time the taking device 300 extracts a terminal, the subsequent processing equipment can accurately obtain the terminal on the taking device 300 at the discharging position, realizing the automated docking of the terminals and the fast and seamless material transfer. The discharging position can be quickly adjusted or replaced according to the requirements of different subsequent processing equipment, including height, angle, etc., to meet the processing requirements of different subsequent processing equipment and the flexible configuration of the production line.

[0043] Optionally, a temporary storage area can also be set at the discharging position to ensure that the terminals can be temporarily stored even without subsequent processing equipment. Further, a soft landing device is also provided in the temporary storage area for gentle placement when the terminals are released, avoiding damage caused by dropping or impact.

[0044] After the terminals are successfully transferred, the picking device 300 is transformed by the first driving device 200 into a posture suitable for entering the picking space 101 for the next picking operation, ensuring continuous operation and improving the working efficiency of the overall system.

[0045] In some embodiments, the second driving device 400 drives the picking device 300 to smoothly and precisely enter the picking space 101 to pick up the terminals during picking. At the same time, after the picking action is completed, it ensures that the picking device 300 can safely and effectively exit the picking space 101 and return to the initial position or enter the preparation state for the next processing procedure. The second driving device 400 includes a mechanical structure (such as a linear guide rail, slider system) driven by a power device (such as a motor, cylinder, oil cylinder, etc.) to control the movement of the picking device 300 relative to the picking space 101 to approach or move away. This ensures that when approaching the picking space 101, the picking device 300 can be aligned and precisely enter, avoiding collision with the edge of the picking space 101 or other structures. The second driving device 400 has a sufficient stroke range to ensure that the picking device 300 can reach the picking position where the terminals in the first area 100 can be picked up, and at the same time, there is enough space when exiting to avoid interference with the structures around the picking space 101 (such as terminal cutting and conveying equipment, etc.), ensuring smooth operation.

[0046] The working process of the terminal extraction device is as follows: When picking operation is required, the first driving device 200 drives the picking device 300 to gradually transform from the initial posture to a posture suitable for entering the picking space 101 to ensure that the picking device 300 can be accurately aligned and ready to enter the narrow or specifically shaped picking area; after the picking device 300 is adjusted to the ideal posture (a posture suitable for entering the picking space 101), the second driving device 400 drives the picking device 300 to extend into the picking space 101 until it reaches the position of the terminals in the first area 100, preparing for the picking operation; the picking device 300 can gently pick up the terminals in the first area 100 through a clamping mechanism (such as a jaw) or a device similar to a suction nozzle, ensuring a stable picking process without damaging the terminals.

[0047] After the picking is completed, the second driving device 400 starts again, smoothly withdraws the picking device 300 together with the picked terminal from the material picking space 101, and at the same time ensures that the picking device 300 returns to a position with sufficient movement space to prepare for the next movement to the discharging position. When the picking device 300 withdraws and reaches a suitable position, the first driving device 200 drives the picking device 300 to move along a preset path to the discharging position. Here, the terminal will be placed in a position convenient for subsequent processing or directly transferred to the equipment of the next process; at the discharging position (which can be any position, and the discharging position is the position where the picking device 300 is located when it is taken away from the picked terminal during subsequent processing), after the picking device 300 releases the terminal or transfers it to the subsequent processing unit, the picking device 300 is ready for the next picking task, and the entire process is closed-loop and ready for the next round of cycle.

[0048] The movement route between the discharging position and the material picking position can be a curve, a straight line or other forms of routes. For example, in Figure 1 the example, the first driving device 200 drives the picking device 300 to make a reciprocating curved movement between the discharging position and the material picking position along route a; the second driving device 400 makes a linear movement along route b to approach or move away from the material picking space 101.

[0049] Optionally, in Figure 2 the example, the first driving device 200 includes: a driving mechanism 201, which is connected to the picking device 300 and drives the picking device 300 to move along the movement path during movement.

[0050] Specifically, in some embodiments, the driving mechanism 201 can use a servo motor as a power source to convert the high-speed rotational movement of the motor into a linear or rotational movement, and then drive the picking device 300 to move along a preset path.

[0051] Optionally, in Figure 2 the example, the driving mechanism 201 includes a rotating mechanism.

[0052] Specifically, in some embodiments, the rotating mechanism is used to adjust the posture of the picking device 300. The rotating mechanism may include, but is not limited to, a planetary gearbox, a cycloidal pinwheel reducer or a rotating motor, and can make the picking device 300 move along the movement path by rotation, ensuring that the picking device 300 can be accurately aligned and enter a complex material picking environment to effectively pick the terminal.

[0053] Optionally, the first driving device 200 includes:

[0054] a first limiting component is provided for blocking the picking device 300 at the discharging position; in Figure 3In the example, the first limiting assembly includes: a first blocking member 2021 and a first blocking member 2022 which are arranged along the movement path and can move relative to each other and cooperate with each other in blocking. The first blocking member 2022 can be driven to move along the movement path and is connected to the driving mechanism 201, and when blocked by the first blocking member 2021, the picking device 300 is stopped at the discharging position.

[0055] Specifically, in some embodiments, the picking device 300 is stopped at the discharge position by a first limit assembly; the first limit assembly is arranged along the movement path of the picking device 300. The first blocking member 2021 is fixedly installed at an appropriate position of the device, and the first blocking member 2022 can move smoothly along the movement path through the drive of the driving mechanism 201. The first blocking member 2022 is designed with a blocking surface that precisely matches the first blocking member 2021. When the first driving device 200 drives the first blocking member 2022 to move to the discharge position, the first blocking member 2022 will come into blocking contact with the first blocking member 2021 at a pre-set position, ensuring that the picking device 300 can stop immediately and accurately when it reaches the discharge position to avoid excessive movement.

[0056] Optional, in Figure 3 In the example, the driving mechanism 201 includes a rotating mechanism driven by a rotating motor, and the rotating motor is connected to the picking device 300 through gears, belts or screws, etc., to drive the picking device 300 to move along a preset path; Figure 3 In the example, the driving mechanism 201 is a gear, wherein the first blocking member 2022 is disposed on the gear, and when the picking device 300 moves to the discharge position, the first blocking member 2022 will collide with the first blocking member 2021. The first blocking member 2021 can be made of high-strength metal or engineering plastic, and is fixedly installed on the housing of the first driving device 200 or the discharge position in the motion path to match the first blocking member 2022. The surface of the blocking member is flat, ensuring that a stable blocking force can be provided when in contact with the blocking member to avoid sliding or misalignment.

[0057] The working principle is as follows: the driving mechanism 201 drives the picking device 300 to move along the motion path toward the material discharging position. During this process, the first blocking member 2022 moves forward with the picking device 300 until it reaches the predetermined material discharging position; when the first blocking member 2022 moves to the position of the first blocking member 2021, the mechanical cooperation between the two takes effect. The blocking surface of the first blocking member 2022 contacts the first blocking member 2021, so that the picking device 300 stops at the material discharging position.

[0058] Optionally, the relative position when the first blocking member 2021 contacts the first blocked member 2022 is set to be adjustable, so as to adjust the discharging position corresponding to the blocking and mating position between the first blocking member 2021 and the first blocked member 2022.

[0059] Specifically, in some embodiments, the positions of both the first blocking member 2021 and the first blocked member can be adjusted to adapt to the discharging position. For example, in Figure 3 the example, the first blocked member 2022 is arranged on a gear structure, and through the continuous rotation of the gear, the first blocked member 2022 moves along a circular trajectory; in order to achieve position adjustment, the first blocking member 2021 can be adjusted along the circular trajectory. The first blocking member 2021 can be installed on a slide rail with clear scale marks for easy adjustment; or a mechanism such as threaded connection or rotatable bracket is adopted to allow the user to adjust its position along the circular trajectory according to needs, so as to control the position of the contact point with the first blocked member 2022 and realize fine adjustment of the discharging position.

[0060] Optionally, the first driving device 200 further includes:

[0061] a second limiting component configured to block the taking device 300 at the discharging position; in Figure 2 Example 3 or 4, the second limiting component includes: a second blocking member 2031 and a second blocked member 2032 that are relatively movable and in blocking cooperation along the movement path, and the second blocked member 2032 is movably connected to the driving mechanism 201 along the movement path and stops the taking device 300 at the material taking position when blocked by the second blocking member 2031.

[0062] Specifically, in some embodiments, the second limiting component is also arranged along the movement path of the taking device 300 and is complementary to the first limiting component in function, but its positioning point is set at the material taking position of the taking device 300. The second limiting component is composed of a second blocking member 2031 and a second blocked member 2032, and the mechanical structure realizes the blocking cooperation. The second blocking member 2031 is fixedly installed at a position suitable for the taking device 300 to enter the material taking space 101. The second blocked member 2032 is directly or indirectly connected to the taking device 300 and also moves along the movement path as the driving mechanism 201 moves. When approaching the material taking space 101, the second blocked member 2032 will meet and be blocked by the second blocking member 2031, ensuring that the taking device 300 enters the material taking space 101 in a posture suitable for entering the material taking space 101 and avoiding overshooting or missing the material taking point.

[0063] Optionally, the relative position when the second blocking member 2031 contacts the second blocked member 2032 is set to be adjustable, so as to adjust the material taking position corresponding to the blocking and mating position between the second blocking member 2031 and the second blocked member 2032.

[0064] Specifically, the adjustment mechanism of the second blocking member 2031 and the second blocked member 2032 is the same as that of the first blocking member 2021 and the first blocked member, and will not be elaborated here.

[0065] Optionally, in Figure 3 the example, a first sensor 2041 for sensing the position where the first driving device 200 moves to the material taking position and outputting a first sensing signal is further provided on the first driving device 200, so as to trigger the second driving device 400 to drive the first driving device 200 close to the material taking space 101.

[0066] Specifically, in some embodiments, the first sensor 2041 is used to monitor whether the first driving device 200 has moved to a predetermined position close to the material taking position. Such a sensor may adopt technologies such as an optoelectronic sensor, a Hall effect sensor, a magnetic proximity switch or an encoder, and the most suitable type is selected according to specific application requirements; when the first driving device 200 moves along its movement path and is about to reach the set material taking position, the first sensor 2041 will sense this position change and output a first sensing signal. This signal serves as an instruction to start subsequent actions; the first sensing signal is connected to the control system, and when the first sensing signal is issued, it triggers the response of the second driving device 400. After receiving the signal, the second driving device 400 drives the picking device 300 to approach the material taking space 101, ensuring that the entire device can be accurately aligned and enter the material taking space 101 to prepare for picking the terminals.

[0067] Optionally, in Figure 3 the example, a second sensor 2042 for sensing the position where the first driving device 200 moves to the discharging position and outputting a second sensing signal for triggering discharging is further provided.

[0068] Specifically, in some embodiments, the second sensor 2042 is installed on the movement path of the first driving device 200, at the position where the picking device 300 is about to reach the discharging position. The type of the sensor can be optoelectronic, proximity switch or magnetic sensor, which can accurately identify the arrival of the discharging position; when the first driving device 200 drives the picking device 300 to move to the discharging position, the second sensor 2042 responds and outputs a second sensing signal to trigger the next discharging action, such as releasing the terminals to a predetermined position or performing the next processing.

[0069] Optionally, in Figure 2 or Figure 3 the example, the picking device 300 includes a picking part 301 for picking the terminals, which is configured to pick the terminals in the first area 100 based on the first sensing signal.

[0070] Specifically, in some embodiments, the picking part 301 is the part in contact with the terminal, which needs to be customized according to the specific shape and material of the terminal. Common forms include suction cup type (suitable for smooth surfaces), gripper type (suitable for objects with a fixed shape), or magnetic adsorption type (for metal materials). The picking part 301 needs to ensure stable picking of the terminal under the application of appropriate force while avoiding damage to the terminal.

[0071] Optionally, in Figure 2 or Figure 4 In the example, a third blocking member 401 is provided on the movement path of the second driving device 400 to block the second driving device 400 from moving to the first position where the terminal in the first area 100 is taken out.

[0072] Specifically, in some embodiments, the third blocking member 401 is installed on the movement path of the second driving device 400 when it moves to the picking space 101, corresponding to the position where the picking device 300 can safely and effectively enter and contact the terminal in the first area 100; the first position ensures that the picking device 300 can fully approach the terminal while avoiding interference or damage caused by excessive penetration.

[0073] The third blocking member 401 adopts a firm and adjustable design, such as a mechanical stop block, a limit pin, or a telescopic blocking arm, and precisely cooperates with the moving components of the second driving device 400. When the second driving device 400 moves to the first position, the blocking member automatically intervenes to physically limit its continued forward movement, ensuring that the picking device 300 is in the most ideal picking posture.

[0074] Optionally, in Figure 4 In the example, a third sensor 411 for sensing that the second driving device 400 moves to the first position where the terminal in the first area 100 is taken out and outputting a third sensing signal is further provided on the second driving device 400 to trigger the picking device 300 to pick the terminal in the first area 100.

[0075] Specifically, in some embodiments, when the second driving device 400 pushes the picking device 300 exactly to the position where the terminal in the first area 100 can be effectively picked, the sensor can identify and respond; after receiving the third sensing signal, the picking device 300 picks the terminal in the first area 100, including adjusting the picking part 301 to the best picking posture, ensuring sufficient picking force, etc., to achieve precise picking of the terminal in the first area 100.

[0076] Optionally, in Figure 4In the example, a fourth sensor 412 for sensing that the second driving device 400 moves to a second position where it escapes from the material taking space 101 and outputting a fourth sensing signal is further provided on the second driving device 400, so as to trigger the first driving device 200 to drive the picking device 300 to move to the discharging position.

[0077] Specifically, in some embodiments, the fourth sensor 412 is installed on the movement path of the second driving device 400 and positioned at the second position ensuring that the picking device 300 can safely and smoothly escape from the material taking space 101, so that after the terminal is successfully taken out, the subsequent discharging process can be responded to and started.

[0078] When the second driving device 400 moves to a predetermined escaping position, the fourth sensor 412 outputs a fourth sensing signal, indicating that the picking device 300 should be ready to enter the next operation - moving to the discharging position; the first driving device 200 drives the picking device 300 back to the discharging position according to the fourth sensing signal, ready to release the terminal or prepare for the next material taking cycle.

[0079] The above embodiments merely illustrate the principles and effects of the present disclosure and are not used to limit the present disclosure. Any person familiar with this technology can modify or change the above embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of the present disclosure. Therefore, all equivalent modifications or changes made by those with ordinary knowledge in the technical field without departing from the spirit and technical idea disclosed by the present disclosure should still be covered by the protection scope of the present disclosure.
