[0027] Embodiment

[0028] Referring to Figures 1 - 5 as shown, a pin 19 feeding device of the present utility model includes:

[0029] A feeding mechanism, which includes: a vibrating disk 5, a first clamping member 16 arranged at the output end of the vibrating disk 5, and a second clamping member 17 arranged on one side of the first clamping member 16;

[0030] A pressing mechanism, which includes: a fixture assembly 9, a first telescopic driving member 7 arranged on one side of the fixture assembly 9, and a pressing rod 8 connected to the output end of the first telescopic driving member 7. The second clamping member 17 is movably arranged on one side of the pin hole 2 to be fed along a first direction, and the pressing rod 8 is arranged on one side of the pin hole 2 to be fed along a second direction.

[0031] A pin 19 feeding device according to the present utility model arranges the pins 19 in an orderly manner through a vibrating bowl 5 and conveys them to the output end of the vibrating bowl 5. The first clamping member 16 clamps the pins 19 output from the vibrating bowl 5, causing the second clamping member 17 to move along a first direction. The second clamping member 17 and the first clamping member 16 are aligned. The second clamping member 17 clamps the pin 19 and takes over the pin 19 clamped by the first clamping member 16, causing the second clamping member 17 to move along the first direction again. The second clamping member 17 is used to move the pin 19 to the pin hole 2 of the workpiece 1 to be fed, position the pin 19 to be fed, and a first telescopic driving member 7 is used to push a pressure rod 8 to move along a second direction towards the pin hole 2 to be fed. After the pressure rod 8 contacts the pin 19, pressure is continuously applied to press the pin 19 into the pin hole 2 to be fed to complete the feeding of the pin 19.

[0032] Refer to Figures 4 - 5 As shown, the feeding mechanism further includes a second telescopic driving member 10. The output end of the second telescopic driving member 10 drives a movable frame along the first direction. The second clamping member 17 is arranged on the movable frame. The first clamping member 16 clamps the pin 19 from the output end of the vibrating bowl 5. The output end of the second telescopic driving member 10 pushes the movable frame to move along the first direction, and the second clamping member 17 on the movable frame approaches the side of the pin hole 2 to be fed accordingly. When the second clamping member 17 reaches a predetermined position, the pin 19 and the pressure rod 8 are located on the same axis in the second direction.

[0033] Refer to Figures 4 - 5 As shown, both the first clamping member 16 and the second clamping member 17 include a clamping cylinder and a clamping portion 18. The clamping portion 18 is at least two, and the clamping portion 18 is connected to the output end of the clamping cylinder. The first clamping member 16 is arranged below the end of the output track 6 of the vibrating bowl 5. When the pin 19 falls to the first clamping member 16 and it is necessary to clamp the pin 19, the clamping cylinder is activated. The output end of the clamping cylinder extends, pushing the connected clamping portion 18 to move towards the pin 19. Since the clamping portion 18 is at least two, it can approach the pin 19 simultaneously to clamp the pin 19.

[0034] Refer to Figure 3 As shown, the fixture assembly 9 is provided with a positioning pin 13, and the positioning pin 13 is adapted to the positioning hole to be processed. The workpiece 1 to be processed is placed on the fixture assembly 9, and the positioning pin 13 on the fixture assembly 9 corresponds to the positioning hole to be processed on the workpiece 1. By inserting the positioning pin 13 into the positioning hole to be processed, the movement of the workpiece 1 in the horizontal direction can be effectively restricted, thereby improving the position accuracy of the workpiece 1 on the fixture assembly 9.

[0035] Refer to Figures 4 - 5As shown, the first telescopic driving member 7 and the pressure rod 8 are movably arranged along the first direction through a transfer assembly. The transfer assembly includes: a support body 15, a bracket 11 movably connected to the support body 15 along the first direction, and a bushing 12 arranged on the bracket 11. The pressure rod 8 movably penetrates through the bushing 12 along the second direction, and the bracket 11 slides on the support body 15 along the first direction. The first telescopic driving member 7 is fixed on the bracket 11 and moves along with the movement of the bracket 11. The pressure rod 8 movably penetrates through the bushing 12 along the second direction. When the positions of the first telescopic driving member 7 and the pressure rod 8 need to be adjusted, the bracket 11 moves on the support body 15 along the first direction, driving the first telescopic driving member 7 and the pressure rod 8 to adjust their positions integrally in the first direction. At the same time, since the pressure rod 8 penetrates through the bushing 12, the bushing 12 provides guidance and support for the movement of the pressure rod 8 in the second direction, ensuring the accuracy and stability of the movement of the pressure rod 8 in the second direction.

[0036] The feeding mechanism, the first telescopic driving member 7 and the pressure rod 8 are arranged on the first frame body 3, and the jig assembly 9 is arranged on the second frame body 4. The second frame body 4 is movably arranged on the ground. When it is necessary to process workpieces 1 at different positions or adjust the processing positions, the position of the jig assembly 9 can be adjusted by moving the second frame body 4, thereby improving the flexibility and adaptability of the device.

[0037] Refer to Figure 5 As shown, a heightening block 20 is arranged on one side of the second clamping member 17 to limit and support the pin 19 below the second clamping member 17. Photoelectric sensors are arranged on both sides of the heightening block 20. When the second clamping member 17 clamps the pin 19 and moves to the heightening block 20, the photoelectric sensors will detect the position and state of the pin 19. If the position of the pin 19 is correct and meets the feeding conditions, the photoelectric sensors will send corresponding signals. After the control system receives the signals, it will control the subsequent operations to continue. Otherwise, the subsequent operations will be stopped.

[0038] Avoidance grooves are formed in the clamping portions 18 of the first clamping member 16 and the second clamping member 17. The size of the avoidance grooves is adapted to the pin 19 to be fed. The output end of the vibrating disk 5, the avoidance grooves of the first clamping member 16 and the second clamping member 17, and the heightening block 20 can be coaxially arranged.

The fixture assembly 9 on each second frame 4 can fix the workpiece 1 to be processed. When it is necessary to process workpieces 1 at different positions or change the processing sequence, the second frame 4 can be moved on the ground rail by pushing or other means, and the second frame 4 equipped with the corresponding workpiece 1 is moved to a suitable processing position. The plurality of second frames 4 form a buffer station for waiting for loading, a loading station for loading, and a unloading station for transferring the workpiece 1 of the numbered pin 19, and are respectively equipped with a barcode scanner 14 for reading codes, writing codes or clearing codes, distinguishing workpieces 1 in different states, and realizing continuous processing operations.
