Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of socket assembly devices, and particularly relates to an automatic transfer device for assembling the top cover of a socket. Background Art

[0002] Currently, in the production process of GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) sockets, the widely adopted mode is the traditional single conveyor line operation mode. In this mode, each production link is closely connected to form a continuous production chain. From raw material feeding to finished product assembly, each link depends on the smooth completion of the previous process. However, with the continuous growth of market demand and the increasing improvement of consumers' requirements for product quality, this production mode gradually reveals its limitations.

[0003] Specifically, although the single conveyor line production mode ensures the continuity and stability of production to a certain extent, its production efficiency is severely restricted. Once a fault or operation error occurs in a certain link on the production line, such as insufficient supply of parts, equipment failure and shutdown, improper operation by workers, etc., the entire production line will be forced to stop, forming a "bottleneck effect". This chain reaction will not only lead to the extension of the production cycle, but also may affect the enterprise's reputation and market competitiveness due to the delay of the delivery date. Content of the Utility Model

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide an automatic transfer device for assembling the top cover of a socket in order to solve the problem that when a fault or operation error occurs in a certain link on the existing production line, such as insufficient supply of parts, equipment failure and shutdown, improper operation by workers, etc., the entire production line will be forced to stop, forming a "bottleneck effect". This chain reaction will not only lead to the extension of the production cycle, but also may affect the enterprise's reputation and market competitiveness due to the delay of the delivery date.

[0005] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical scheme: an automatic transfer device for assembling the top cover of a socket, comprising:

[0006] A top cover feeding turntable; a plurality of top cover grooves are arranged thereon, and a first rotating seat is arranged at the bottom thereof, and a plurality of top covers are correspondingly located in the top cover grooves;

[0007] A socket body feeding turntable; a plurality of positioning grooves are arranged thereon, and a second rotating seat is arranged at the bottom thereof, and a plurality of socket bodies are correspondingly located in the positioning grooves;

[0008] A top cover assembling mechanism, which is located between the top cover feeding turntable and the socket body feeding turntable;

[0009] The screw driving mechanism is located on one side of the feeding turntable of the socket body, and a clamping mechanism is provided at one end thereof. The clamping mechanism is located between the feeding turntable of the socket body and the conveying mechanism.

[0010] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0011] A limiting plate is provided on the positioning groove. The limiting plate is connected to the positioning groove through an elastic telescopic rod. A lifting cylinder is provided on the feeding turntable of the socket body. A first telescopic cylinder is provided on the lifting cylinder. A pulling block is provided on the first telescopic cylinder. The pulling block abuts against the limiting plate.

[0012] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0013] The top cover assembling mechanism includes a first support plate, a first linear motor, a first connecting plate, a plurality of second telescopic cylinders and a plurality of suction cups. The first linear motor is connected to the first support plate. The first connecting plate is connected to the first linear motor. The second telescopic cylinders are connected to the first connecting plate. The plurality of suction cups are correspondingly connected to the second telescopic cylinders.

[0014] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0015] The screw driving mechanism includes a second support plate, a second linear motor, a second connecting plate, a third telescopic cylinder and an electric screwdriver bit. The second linear motor is connected to the second support plate. The second connecting plate is connected to the second linear motor. The third telescopic cylinder is connected to the second connecting plate. The electric screwdriver bit is connected to the third telescopic cylinder. The electric screwdriver bit is located directly above the socket body.

[0016] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0017] The clamping mechanism includes a third support plate, a third linear motor, a third connecting plate, a fourth telescopic cylinder and clamping jaws. The third linear motor is connected to the third support plate. The third connecting plate is connected to the third linear motor. The fourth telescopic cylinder is connected to the third connecting plate. The clamping jaws are connected to the fourth telescopic cylinder.

[0018] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0019] The bottom of the second support plate is connected to an adjustable connecting slide rail.

[0020] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0021] A connecting seat is provided on the first support plate, and a transfer placement groove is provided inside the connecting seat.

[0022] In summary, due to the adoption of the above technical solutions, the beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows:

[0023] In the present utility model, there is a top cover feeding turntable provided with a plurality of top cover grooves and a socket body feeding turntable provided with a plurality of positioning grooves. When top cover splicing is required, a plurality of top covers are respectively placed in the top cover grooves, and a plurality of socket bodies are placed in the positioning grooves. As the top cover feeding turntable and the socket body feeding turntable rotate, the suction cups in the top cover assembly mechanism simultaneously adsorb two top covers, assemble one on the socket body, and place the other in the transfer placement groove. The socket body feeding turntable rotates to respectively convey them to the screw driving mechanism to install screws. At the same time, after the screws are installed, the clamping claws clamp them on the conveying mechanism and convey them to the next station. This structure uses two turntable structures, which can assemble multiple sockets and then convey them, replacing the traditional method of only being able to assemble one at a time. Once a certain link in the production line is damaged, the entire production line will stagnate. However, in this structure, multiple top covers are respectively installed on the socket bodies and conveyed through the conveying mechanism for buffering, ensuring the continuous production of the previous section of the production line. The buffered assembled parts are sufficient to wait for the repair of the latter section of the production line. Once the latter section of the production line is normal, the entire production line can be produced. If the previous section of the production line is damaged, the latter section can produce normally, and the buffered assembled parts are sufficient for the repair of the previous section of the production line. This structure greatly improves the production efficiency. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
