Therefore, the terms describing the positional relationship in the drawings are only for illustrative purposes and cannot be understood as a limitation of this patent. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms can be understood according to specific situations.

[0028] Such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 6As shown in the figure, the present utility model provides a terminal crimping and housing inserting station 10 for a wire harness double-head terminal crimping and housing inserting machine, including: a placement table 400, a wire shifting and feeding assembly 100, a wire pulling assembly 300 and a terminal crimping assembly. The terminal crimping assembly includes: a terminal crimping mechanism 430 and a housing inserting mechanism 440; a cutting and stripping mechanism 410 and a detection mechanism 420 are arranged on the placement table 400; the wire shifting and feeding assembly 100 includes: a first driver 120, a first sliding seat 130, a mounting table 110, a second driver 160, a first pneumatic finger 170 and a first jaw 171. The mounting table 110 is arranged on the placement table 400, the first driver 120 is arranged on the mounting table 110, the first driver 120 is drivingly connected to the first sliding seat 130, the second driver 160 is arranged on the first sliding seat 130, the second driver 160 is drivingly connected to the first pneumatic finger 170, the first pneumatic finger 170 is drivingly connected to the first jaw 171, and the first driver 120 drives the first jaw 171 to move along a first direction to transfer the wire harness to the terminal crimping assembly; the wire pulling assembly 300 includes: a fifth driver 310, a workbench 320, a cylinder 360 and a fourth jaw 370. The workbench 320 is arranged on the placement table 400, the fifth driver 310 is arranged on the workbench 320, the fifth driver 310 is drivingly connected to the cylinder 360, the cylinder 360 is drivingly connected to the fourth jaw 370, and the wire feeding range of the wire shifting and feeding assembly 100 covers the terminal crimping assembly and the wire pulling assembly 300.

[0029] Specifically, the cutting and peeling mechanism 410, the terminal crimping mechanism 430, and the housing inserting mechanism 440 are sequentially arranged on the placement table 400, and the fourth jaw 370 is arranged in alignment with the cutting and peeling mechanism 410 front and back. After the terminals are installed at the first end of the wire harness, the fifth driver 310 drives the fourth jaw 370 to move forward so that the fourth jaw 370 reaches the wire harness. After the fourth jaw 370 clamps the wire harness by driving of the cylinder 360, the fifth driver 310 drives the fourth jaw 370 to move backward, pulling a part of the wire harness to the cutting and peeling mechanism 410. The cutting and peeling mechanism 410 cuts the wire harness and peels the second end of the wire harness. Then, the first driver 120 drives the first jaw 171 to move rightward to the cutting and peeling mechanism 410. After the first pneumatic finger 170 drives the first jaw 171 to clamp the wire harness, the fourth jaw 370 releases the clamping of the wire harness. Then, the first driver 120 drives the first jaw 171 to move leftward to convey the wire harness to the terminal crimping mechanism 430 to crimp the second end of the wire harness. Then, the first driver 120 drives the first jaw 171 to continue moving leftward to convey the wire harness to the housing inserting mechanism 440. At this time, the second driver 160 drives the first jaw 171 to flip 180° and then insert the housing for the second end of the wire harness, thus meeting the requirement of reverse terminal crimping at both ends of the wire harness. It should be noted that whether to drive the first jaw 171 to drive the wire harness to flip 180° by the second driver 160 is determined according to the production requirements.

[0030] In this embodiment, the cutting and peeling mechanism 410, the detection mechanism 420, the terminal crimping mechanism 430, and the housing inserting mechanism 440 are sequentially arranged on the placement table 400. After the cutting and peeling mechanism 410 cuts the wire harness and peels the second end of the wire harness, the first driver 120 drives the first jaw 171 to drive the wire harness to move leftward to the detection mechanism 420 for detection, which is used to detect whether the second end of the wire harness is peeled in place; if peeled in place, the first driver 120 drives the first jaw 171 to drive the wire harness to continue moving leftward to crimp the terminal and insert the rubber housing for the second end of the wire harness. After the terminal is crimped and the rubber housing is inserted for the second end of the wire harness, the first driver 120 drives the first jaw 171 to drive the wire harness to move rightward to the detection mechanism 420 for detection, so as to detect whether the wire harness after terminal crimping and rubber housing insertion meets the production requirements.

[0031] Specifically, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the wire shifting and feeding assembly 100 further includes: a second sliding seat 150 and a third driver 140. The third driver 140 is disposed on the first sliding seat 130. The third driver 140 is drivingly connected to the second sliding seat 150. The second driver 160 is disposed on the second sliding seat 150. The third driver 140 drives the first jaw 171 to move in a second direction, and the second direction is perpendicular to the first direction. Specifically, the third driver 140 can drive the wire harness clamped by the first jaw 171 to move forward or backward, and can flexibly control the distance between the second end of the wire harness and the terminal crimping mechanism 430 and the housing inserting mechanism 440, so as to flexibly control the terminal crimping depth or the housing inserting depth of the second end of the wire harness.

[0032] In this embodiment, a rotating member 173 is provided on the first pneumatic finger 170. The rotating member 173 is rotatably connected to the second sliding seat 150. When the second driver 160 drives the first pneumatic finger 170 to rotate, the rotating member 173 rotates relative to the second sliding seat 150, preventing the second sliding seat 150 from rotating when the first pneumatic finger 170 rotates.

[0033] Specifically, as Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, the wire shifting and feeding assembly 100 further includes: a second jaw 172. The second jaw 172 is drivingly connected to the first pneumatic finger 170. The first pneumatic finger 170 drives the second jaw 172 to clamp or release the wire harness. Specifically, the first pneumatic finger 170 can drive the second jaw 172 to clamp the wire harness. By providing the second jaw 172, the effect of the wire shifting and feeding assembly 100 clamping the wire harness can be further enhanced.

[0034] Specifically, as Figure 4As shown, the terminal crimping and housing inserting station 10 of the wire harness double - head terminal crimping and housing inserting machine further includes: a flipping and tin - dipping assembly 200. The flipping and tin - dipping assembly 200 includes: a fourth driver 210, a second pneumatic finger 220, and a third jaw 230. The fourth driver 210 is arranged on the placing table 400 and is drivingly connected to the second pneumatic finger 220. The second pneumatic finger 220 is drivingly connected to the third jaw 230. The fourth driver 210 is used to drive the third jaw 230 to rotate and move. The second pneumatic finger 220 drives the third jaw 230 to clamp or release the wire harness. A tin bath 450 for containing tin liquid is arranged on the placing table 400. When the fourth driver 210 drives the third jaw 230 to rotate and move, the moving range of the third jaw 230 covers the tin bath 450. Specifically, the tin bath 450 is filled with tin liquid. When it is not necessary to crimp terminals and insert housings for the second end of the wire harness, the second pneumatic finger 220 drives the third jaw 230 to clamp the wire harness after cutting and stripping. The fourth driver 210 drives the third jaw 230 to drive the wire harness to rotate 90° so that the second end of the wire harness enters the tin bath 450, thereby tinning the second end of the wire harness. The fourth driver 210 drives the third jaw 230 to drive the wire harness to rotate 90° in the reverse direction, and takes the wire harness out of the tin bath 450.

[0035] Specifically, as Figure 4 and Figure 5 shown, a limiting block 240 is arranged on the third jaw 230, and a plurality of limiting grooves 241 are formed in the limiting block 240. Specifically, when the four - driver drives the third jaw 230 to clamp each wire harness, each wire harness is located in a limiting groove 241. The wire harnesses can be separated by the limiting grooves 241, so that the distance between the wire harnesses is aligned with the housing - inserting positions on the housing - inserting mechanism 440, enabling the shifting and wire - feeding assembly 100 to smoothly drive the second ends of the wire harnesses to complete the process of inserting rubber housings.

[0036] After the wire - pulling assembly 300 pulls the wire harness to the cutting and stripping mechanism 410, the second pneumatic finger 220 drives the third jaw 230 to clamp the wire harness. Then the wire - pulling assembly 300 moves backward, and the first driver 120 drives the first jaw 171 to move to the wire harness and clamp the wire harness after moving to the right. The third jaw 230 can clamp the wire harness to prevent the wire harness from falling.

[0037] It should be noted that the first driver 120, the third driver 140, and the fifth driver 310 can be linear modules or electric push rods. The second driver 160 and the fourth driver 210 can be motors or other types of motors. The types of the first driver 140, the second driver 160, the third driver 140, the fourth driver 210, and the fifth driver 310 are not limited by this embodiment, as long as they can drive the connected components to achieve the corresponding moving effects.

[0038] Obviously, the above embodiments of the present utility model are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present utility model, rather than limitations on the implementation manners of the present utility model. For those of ordinary skill in the art, other different forms of changes or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is not necessary and impossible to enumerate all implementation manners here. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present utility model shall be included within the protection scope of the claims of the present utility model.
