[0073] The present utility model provides an intelligent watch assembly production line, which is applicable to the application scenario of using a fixed bracket to install FPC devices such as microphones to the inner side of the top corner position of the watch frame. It can improve the mechanization degree of intelligent watch assembly, thereby reducing labor costs and improving production efficiency.
[0074] See Figure 1 , the intelligent watch assembly production line provided in this embodiment includes a conveying device 100, a watch frame loading manipulator 200, an FPC loading module 300, a bracket locking and pasting module 400, a pressure maintaining module 600, and a blanking manipulator 700.
[0075] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the conveying device 100 is used to convey an inclined positioning jig 900. The watch frame loading manipulator 200 is used to obliquely place a watch frame carrier 800 loaded with a watch frame into the inclined positioning jig 900. The FPC loading module 300 is used to load an FPC device into the inner side of the watch frame. The bracket locking and pasting module 400 is used to place a fixed bracket on the FPC device and lock the fixed bracket and the watch frame so that the fixed bracket and the watch frame cooperate to clamp the FPC device; the bracket locking and pasting module 400 is also used to paste a temperature sensing patch on the surface of the fixed bracket. The pressure maintaining module 600 is used to press the temperature sensing patch. The blanking manipulator 700 is used to take out the watch frame carrier 800 loaded with the watch frame from the inclined positioning jig 900.
[0076] Optionally, an operation station 500 is left between the bracket locking and pasting module 400 and the pressure maintaining module 600, so as to arrange workshop workers to check the bracket locking and pasting conditions at the operation station 500. When necessary, the workers can also manually or use a manipulator, etc. at the operation station 500 to perform bending and shaping fine-tuning on the FPC device and tear off the protective film on the temperature sensing patch, etc.
[0077] The conveying device 100 includes a frame feeding conveyor belt 101 , a feeding end docking mechanism 102 , an outgoing conveyor belt 103 , a return conveyor belt 104 , a discharge end docking mechanism 105 , and a discharge conveyor belt 106 .
[0078] The watch frame feeding conveyor belt 101 is used to deliver the watch frame carrier 800 loaded with the watch frame from the upstream. The outbound conveyor belt 103 is used to transport the tilting positioning fixture 900 to the FPC loading module 300, the bracket locking patch module 400, the pressure holding module 600, and the unloading robot 700 in sequence. The feeding direction of the return conveyor belt 104 is opposite to that of the outbound conveyor belt 103, and is used to return the empty tilting positioning fixture 900 to the feeding end docking mechanism 102. The feeding end docking mechanism 102 and the unloading end docking mechanism 105 both include a docking platform 5, and a docking linear drive mechanism 6 that drives the docking platform 5 to reciprocate between the outbound conveyor belt 103 and the return conveyor belt 104. The unloading conveyor belt 106 is used to transport the watch frame carrier 800 loaded with the watch frame to the downstream.
[0079] The smart watch assembly production line provided in this embodiment has the following specific working process:
[0080] S10: The watch frame feeding conveyor belt 101 delivers the watch frame carrier 800 loaded with the watch frame from the upstream, and the watch frame loading robot 200 picks up the watch frame carrier 800 loaded with the watch frame, and places it obliquely on the inclined positioning fixture 900 of the feeding end docking mechanism 102;
[0081] See also Figures 3 to 6 , the specific structure of the tilt positioning fixture 900 is first introduced below.
[0082] The tilt positioning fixture 900 includes a fixture body 2 , two elastic clamping components 3 arranged at diagonal positions along the tilt support surface 201 , and a watch frame positioning component 4 .
[0083] The fixture body 2 is provided with an inclined support surface 201 for placing the watch frame carrier 800. The elastic clamping components 3 have a clamping carrier state in which they are close to each other to clamp and fix the watch frame carrier 800, and a loosening carrier state in which they are driven away from each other to release the watch frame carrier 800. The watch frame positioning component 4 is installed in front of the inclined support surface 201, and has a pressing watch frame state in which it rotates upward to abut against the watch frame to press the watch frame into the watch frame carrier 800, and has a loosening watch frame state in which it rotates downward to be separated from the watch frame.
[0084] Specifically, the elastic clamping assembly 3 includes an elastic clamping base 301, a sliding clamp block 302, an X-direction spring 303, an unlocking push rod 304, and a Y-direction spring 305.
[0085] The elastic clamping base 301 is fixedly installed on the inclined support surface 201. The sliding clamp block 302 includes a sliding portion 3021 slidably installed in the elastic clamping base 301 in the X direction, and a clamping portion 3022 installed on the sliding portion 3021 and extending to the side of the table frame carrier 800 away from the inclined support surface 201; wherein, the X direction is parallel to the inclined support surface 201, and the Y direction is perpendicular to the inclined support surface 201; the sliding portion 3021 and the clamping portion 3022 are slidably connected in the Y direction; a guide wheel 306 is provided on the clamping portion 3022, and the elastic clamping base 301 is provided with an inclined guide groove 3011 for the guide wheel 306 to be inserted; wherein, the distance dimension from the inclined guide groove 3011 to the inclined support surface 201 gradually increases in the direction away from the table frame carrier 800.
[0086] The X-direction spring 303 is located on the side of the sliding portion 3021 away from the table frame carrier 800, and is used to drive the sliding clamp block 302 to slide relative to the elastic clamping base 301 in the X direction towards the table frame carrier 800. The unlocking push rod 304 passes through the fixture body 2 from the back of the fixture body 2 and extends into the elastic clamping base 301, and slidably abuts against the sliding portion 3021; wherein, the abutting surfaces of the unlocking push rod 304 and the sliding portion 3021 are inclined guide surfaces, so that when the unlocking push rod 304 is driven to move forward relative to the fixture body 2, the sliding portion 3021 is driven by the unlocking push rod 304 to move away from the table frame carrier 800. The Y-direction spring 305 is used to push the clamping portion 3022 towards the sliding portion 3021 in the Y direction, so that the clamping portion 3022 cooperates with the inclined support surface 201 to clamp the table frame carrier 800 in the Y direction.
[0087] The table frame positioning assembly 4 includes a table frame positioning base 401, a rotating block 402, a torsion spring, an elastic pressing piece 403, a rotating limit plate 404, a sliding hook lock 405, and a limit spring.
[0088] The frame positioning base 401 is fixedly installed in front of the inclined support surface 201. The rotating block 402 is rotatably installed on the top of the frame positioning base 401. The elastic pressing piece 403 is fixedly arranged on the top of the rotating block 402 for pressing the watch frame tightly. The rotating limit plate 404 is fixedly arranged on the rotating block 402 and rotates synchronously with the rotating block 402. The sliding hook locking member 405 is slidably installed on the frame positioning base 401 and is located on the side of the rotating limit plate 404; wherein, a lever portion 4051 protruding upward is arranged on the top of the sliding hook locking member 405. The limit spring is located on the side of the sliding hook locking member 405 away from the rotating limit plate 404 and is used to drive the sliding hook locking member 405 to slide towards the rotating limit plate 404 to limit the downward movement of the rotating block 402. Wherein, the torsion spring is used to drive the rotating block 402 to rotate downward relative to the frame positioning base 401. Therefore, as long as the sliding hook locking member 405 is opened, the torsion spring can automatically drive the rotating block 402 to rotate downward relative to the frame positioning base 401 so that the elastic pressing piece 403 is separated from the watch frame.
[0089] Correspondingly, referring to Figure 7 and Figure 8 , the connection platform 5 includes two spaced connection conveyor belts 501, an L-shaped baffle 502 located above the two connection conveyor belts 501, a lifting mechanism 503 located between the two connection conveyor belts 501, an unlocking linear driving mechanism 504 located on one side of the connection conveyor belt 501 and used to push the unlocking push rod 304 forward to open the elastic clamping assembly 3, and a lever manipulator 505 located on the other side of the connection conveyor belt 501 and used to push the lever portion 4051 and the rotating block 402.
[0090] For the inclined positioning fixture 900 provided in this embodiment, when internal components such as a microphone need to be installed inside the top corner position of the watch frame, the frame carrier 800 loaded with the watch frame can be placed on the inclined support surface 201, and the two elastic clamping assemblies 3 approach each other and clamp and fix the frame carrier 800, thereby fixing the frame carrier 800 on the fixture main body 2; then, the frame positioning assembly 4 is rotated upward so that the frame positioning assembly 4 presses the watch frame tightly in the frame carrier 800, thereby avoiding the watch frame from separating outward from the frame carrier 800; at this time, the watch frame has been completely positioned, and the workshop workers can install internal components such as a microphone inside the top corner position of the watch frame; after the installation is completed, first rotate the frame positioning assembly 4 downward to the state of loosening the frame to loosen the watch frame, and then separate the two elastic clamping assemblies 3 from each other and loosen the frame carrier 800, and the watch frame together with the frame carrier 800 can be taken off from the fixture main body 2.
[0091] Therefore, the tilt positioning fixture 900 provided by the utility model can tilt and position the watch frame carrier 800, freeing the hands of workshop workers and making it easier for workshop workers to place internal components inside the top corner of the watch frame, thereby improving production efficiency.
[0092] Step S10 can be refined as follows:
[0093] S101: The return conveyor belt 104 transports the unloaded tilting positioning fixture 900 to the top of the two connecting conveyor belts 501 of the unloading end connecting mechanism 105, and the lifting mechanism 503 lifts the tilting positioning fixture 900 upwards, and cooperates with the L-shaped baffle plate 502 to clamp and fix the tilting positioning fixture 900;
[0094] S102: The clamping mechanism extends forward and pushes the unlocking push rod 304, so that the unlocking push rod 304 pushes the sliding portion 3021 outward under the guidance of the inclined guide surface, and the sliding portion 3021 drives the clamping portion 3022 to move outward along the inclined guide groove 3011, so as to free up space for placing the watch frame carrier 800;
[0095] S103: the bezel loading robot 200 picks up the bezel carrier 800 loaded with the watch bezel sent by the bezel feeding conveyor 101, and places it obliquely on the inclined support surface 201 of the inclined positioning fixture 900;
[0096] Optionally, the watch frame carrier 800 is provided with at least two positioning holes, and the inclined support surface 201 is provided with a positioning pin 202 for inserting into the corresponding positioning hole at a position corresponding to each positioning hole, so as to position the watch frame carrier 800;
[0097] S104: the clamping mechanism retracts forward and backward, and under the cooperation of the X-direction spring 303 and the Y-direction spring 305, the clamping portion 3022 is reset and clamps the watch frame carrier 800;
[0098] S20: The FPC loading module 300 loads the FPC component into the inner side of the watch frame;
[0099] The FPC loading module 300 includes an FPC feeding platform 701 for delivering FPC devices from upstream, a shaping platform 702 provided with shaping grooves, a shaping robot 703 for taking the FPC devices out of the FPC feeding platform 701 and pressing them into the shaping grooves of the shaping platform 702, and an FPC assembly robot 704 for taking the FPC devices out of the shaping grooves and placing them into the watch frame.
[0100] Step S20 can be refined as follows:
[0101] S201: The shaping robot 703 takes the FPC device out from the FPC feeding platform 701 and presses it into the shaping groove of the shaping platform 702, so that the FPC device is bent into a shape matching the shaping groove;
[0102] S202: The FPC assembly robot 704 takes the FPC component out of the shaping groove and puts it into the watch frame;
[0103] S203: the lever manipulator 505 pushes the rotating block 402 upward, so that the elastic pressing piece 403 rotates to the upper side of the edge of the FPC device, thereby pressing the FPC device tightly; at this time, the sliding hook lock 405 extends to the upper side of the rotation limit plate 404, preventing the rotation limit plate 404 from rotating downward, thereby preventing the FPC device from shifting during the subsequent fixed bracket assembly operation; the lever manipulator 505 is separated from the frame positioning assembly 4;
[0104] S204: The docking linear drive mechanism 6 of the feed-end docking mechanism 102 drives the docking platform 5 to move to align with the outbound conveyor belt 103, and the docking platform 5 delivers the inclined positioning fixture 900 to the outbound conveyor belt 103;

[0121] S703: The lever manipulator 505 pushes the lever part 4051 outward, causing the sliding hook lock part 405 to move away from above the rotation limiting plate 404. The torsion spring automatically drives the rotating block 402 to drive the elastic pressing piece 403 to move downward and separate from the FPC component;
[0122] S704: The blanking manipulator 700 takes out the frame carrier 800 from the inclined positioning jig 900 and places it into the blanking conveyor 106;
[0123] S705: The connection linear drive mechanism 6 of the blanking end connection mechanism 105 aligns the connection platform 5 with the return conveyor 104. The clamping release mechanism and the lifting mechanism 503 retract in sequence, and the connection platform 5 sends the empty inclined positioning jig 900 back to the return conveyor 104.
