[0028] See Figures 1 - 3 As shown, the small roller bearing assembly mechanism described in this embodiment includes a machine table 1, a product installation position 2, a feeding component 3, a moving component 4, an installation jig 5, and a camera photographing and positioning component 6. The product installation position 2 is arranged on one side of the machine table 1. The feeding component 3 is installed on the machine table 1 and is used for conveying the roller bearings to be assembled. The moving component 4 is installed on the machine table 1. The installation jig 5 is installed on the moving component 4 so as to drive the installation jig 5 to move to the position of the feeding component 3 to pick up materials or move to the product installation position 2 for assembling the roller bearings. The camera photographing and positioning component 6 is arranged above the product installation position 2 and is used for photographing and positioning before the roller bearing assembly.

[0029] This embodiment has a simple structure and reasonable design. By setting the feeding component 3 for feeding, the installation jig 5 is installed on the moving component 4, so as to pick up materials from the feeding component 3 through the installation jig 5, and then accurately assemble them at the product installation position 2 after photographing and positioning, realizing the precise and efficient assembly of small roller bearings.

[0030] Specifically, in this embodiment, the camera photographing and positioning component 6 uses an industrial camera for photographing and positioning.

[0031] In some embodiments, the feeding component 3 is provided with a linear vibrating feeder. A material picking position 11 is provided on the machine table 1. The linear vibrating feeder is used for conveying the roller bearings to be assembled to the material picking position 11.

[0032] In this embodiment, it is specifically shown that a linear vibrating feeder in the prior art is used for feeding, which has a simple structure and good feeding stability.

[0033] In some embodiments, the moving component 4 includes an X-axis moving module 41, a Y-axis moving module 42, and a lifting cylinder structure 43. The X-axis moving module 41 is arranged on the machine table 1. The Y-axis moving module 42 is arranged on the X-axis moving module 41. The lifting cylinder structure 43 is arranged on the Y-axis moving module 42. The installation jig 5 is arranged on the lifting cylinder structure 43.

[0034] Specifically, the X-axis movement module 41 and the Y-axis movement module 42 respectively adopt linear modules.

[0035] In this embodiment, a moving assembly 4 provided with an X-axis movement module 41, a Y-axis movement module 42, and a lifting cylinder structure 43 is specifically shown, so as to realize flexible adjustment of the position of the installation jig 5 and better perform material taking and assembly.

[0036] In some embodiments, a thimble 51 for inserting a roller bearing to be assembled is provided at the bottom end of the installation jig 5, and the thimble 51 is telescopically and movably arranged on the installation jig 5.

[0037] Specifically, the interior of the installation jig 5 has a movable cavity 52, an elastic reset structure 53 is installed in the movable cavity 52, the thimble 51 is arranged in the movable cavity 52 and is connected to the elastic reset structure 53, so as to be reset and ejected from the installation jig 5 through the elastic reset structure 53 to insert the roller bearing to be assembled, or compress the elastic reset structure 53 and retract the installation jig 5 to release the roller bearing to be assembled.

[0038] Specifically, the elastic reset structure 53 is set as a reset spring.

[0039] In this embodiment, the structure of the installation jig 5 is specifically shown. During assembly, when the installation jig 5 moves to the material taking position, the thimble 51 is in the ejected state to insert the roller bearing. Specifically, the roller bearing is fixed on the thimble 51 of the installation jig 5 by using the elastic characteristic of the roller cage of the roller bearing. When moving to the product installation position 2, the installation jig 5 drives the ball bearing to descend. After the thimble 51 contacts the installation position and abuts, it is retracted upward passively to release the roller bearing from the thimble 51. Then, the moving assembly 4 drives the installation jig 5 to rise, and the elastic force of the reset spring makes the thimble 51 pop out to assemble the next product.

[0040] Specifically, the working process of the assembly mechanism in the above embodiment is as follows:

[0041] The direct vibration feeder feeds the material to the material picking position, and the moving component 4 drives the installation jig 5 to move above the material picking position, and then continues to descend. The ejector 51 of the installation jig 5 is inserted into the roller bearing, and the roller bearing is fixed on the ejector 51 of the jig by utilizing the elastic characteristics of the roller retainer of the roller bearing to complete the material picking. Then the moving component 4 drives the installation jig 5 to move to the product installation position 2. After the camera takes a picture to locate the installation position of the roller bearing, the moving component 4 drives the installation jig 5 to move to the accurate installation position, and then drives the installation jig 5 to descend. After the ejector 51 contacts the installation position and resists, it passively retracts upward to make the roller bearing disengage from the ejector 51, so that the roller bearing is installed in the specified position. Then the moving component 4 drives the installation jig 5 to rise, and the elastic force of the reset spring causes the ejector 51 to pop out, and the next product is assembled.

[0042] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application. Those skilled in the art will readily appreciate that various modifications and variations are possible. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present application shall be included within the scope of protection of the present application.
