Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of connector processing, and specifically to a terminal strip feeding device. Background Art

[0002] The terminal strip is a component of a connector. It is a multi-port insulation device, usually used in electrical panels and control boxes. It allows multiple wires or cables to be connected to a centralized location to simplify electrical connections. The terminal strip not only provides electrical connections but also ensures the safety and reliability of the connections, preventing electrical failures and accidents.

[0003] Existing terminal strips are generally fed and conveyed by a conveyor belt. This feeding method is likely to cause the terminal strip to shake during the feeding process, and the shaking will cause the position of the terminal strip on the conveyor belt to shift, making the originally aligned feeding port unable to accurately receive the terminal strip, thereby affecting the accuracy of subsequent processing or assembly. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] In view of this, the purpose of the present utility model is to solve the disadvantages in the background art and propose a terminal strip feeding device to solve the problems existing in the prior art.

[0005] To achieve the above object, the present utility model provides a terminal strip feeding device, including a base frame. A chute is provided on the outer surface of the base frame. A terminal strip body is slidably connected to the inner wall of the chute. A fixing rod is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the base frame. A spring is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the fixing rod. A straight rod is fixedly connected to the top of the spring. A push rod is fixedly connected to the bottom of the straight rod. A feeding plate is fixedly connected to the top of the push rod, and the outer surface of the feeding plate is slidably connected to the inner wall of the chute. An intermittent feeding mechanism is provided on the base frame.

[0006] Preferably, the intermittent feeding mechanism includes a feeding groove opened on the base frame. A feeding plate is slidably connected to the inner wall of the feeding groove. The intermittent feeding mechanism can intermittently feed the terminal strip body entering the feeding groove to achieve periodic feeding. The width of the feeding plate is the same as the width of the terminal strip body.

[0007] Preferably, a stepping motor is fixedly installed on the base frame, and an oscillating frame is fixedly connected to the output end of the stepping motor.

[0008] Preferably, a frame shaft is fixedly connected to the end of the oscillating frame away from the stepping motor, and a slider is rotatably connected to the outer surface of the frame shaft.

[0009] Preferably, a T-shaped moving frame is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the feeding plate. A strip-shaped sliding hole is opened on the outer surface of the T-shaped moving frame, and the outer surface of the strip-shaped sliding hole is slidably connected to the outer surface of the slider.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0011] 1. For this terminal strip feeding device, by adopting a chute combined with a pushing groove and a pushing mechanism driven by a stepping motor, it ensures that the terminal strip is always in a relatively stable state during the feeding process. The periodic pushing and pulling action of the pushing plate replaces the traditional continuous conveying, effectively avoiding the position deviation of the terminal strip caused by shaking, thereby ensuring the accuracy of feeding.

[0012] 2. For this terminal strip feeding device, during the periodic pushing of the terminal strip by the pushing plate, the pushing speed of the pushing plate can be changed through the stepping motor. By reasonably adjusting the pushing speed and the feeding cycle, it is possible to avoid the phenomenon of accumulation or shortage of terminal strips caused by too fast or too slow feeding.

[0016] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of this application.

[0017] Please refer to Figure 1-2 , a terminal strip feeding device, including a base frame 1. A chute 2 is provided on the outer surface of the base frame 1. A terminal strip body 3 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the chute 2. A fixed rod 4 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the base frame 1. A spring 5 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the fixed rod 4. A straight rod 6 is fixedly connected to the top of the spring 5. A push rod 7 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the straight rod 6. A feeding plate 8 is fixedly connected to the top of the push rod 7, and the outer surface of the feeding plate 8 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the chute 2. An intermittent pushing mechanism is provided on the base frame 1.

[0018] Through the above technical solution, during the feeding process of the terminal bar body 3, the intermittent feeding mechanism enables the pushing plate 10 to slide back and forth periodically along the inner wall of the pushing groove 9. During this process, the terminal bar bodies 3 accumulated in the sliding groove 2 will be gradually pushed into the pushing groove 9 under the elastic action of the spring 5, so that the pushing plate 10 periodically pushes the terminal bar body 3 for feeding treatment.

[0019] Specifically, the intermittent feeding mechanism includes a pushing groove 9 opened on the base frame 1, and a pushing plate 10 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the pushing groove 9.

[0020] Through the above technical solution, the pushing groove 9 is communicated with the sliding groove 2, and the terminal bar bodies 3 in the sliding groove 2 can be pushed into the pushing groove 9.

[0021] Specifically, a stepping motor 11 is fixedly installed on the base frame 1, and an output end of the stepping motor 11 is fixedly connected to a swing frame 12.

[0022] Through the above technical solution, the driving speed of the stepping motor 11 for the swing frame 12 can be adjusted, so as to change the pushing speed of the pushing plate 10, that is, the feeding cycle of the terminal bar body 3 can be adjusted.

[0023] Specifically, a frame shaft 13 is fixedly connected to an end of the swing frame 12 away from the stepping motor 11, and a slider 14 is rotatably connected to an outer surface of the frame shaft 13.

[0024] Through the above technical solution, during the swinging process of the swing frame 12, the slider 14 will be driven by the frame shaft 13, so that the slider 14 slides along a strip-shaped sliding hole 16 opened on the surface of the T-shaped moving frame 15.

[0025] Specifically, a T-shaped moving frame 15 is fixedly connected to an outer surface of the pushing plate 10, a strip-shaped sliding hole 16 is opened on an outer surface of the T-shaped moving frame 15, and the strip-shaped sliding hole 16 is slidably connected to an outer surface of the slider 14.

[0026] Through the above technical solution, during the process that the slider 14 makes a circular motion along with the frame shaft 13, it will drive the T-shaped moving frame 15 to move left and right, so as to push and pull the pushing plate 10.

[0027] Working principle: During the feeding process of the terminal bar body 3, multiple terminal bar bodies 3 are placed in the chute 2, and the lowermost terminal bar body 3 is just located in the pushing slot 9. Since the width of the terminal bar body 3 is the same as that of the pushing plate 10, when the stepping motor 11 is started, it can drive the swing frame 12 to swing. During the circular motion of the shaft 13 at the end of the swing frame 12, the shaft 13 will rotate along the inner wall of the slider 14 and drive the slider 14 to slide along the inner wall of the strip-shaped sliding hole 16. During this process, the slider 14 will perform a circular motion. During this period, the vertical movement of the slider 14 will be converted into its up and down sliding in the strip-shaped sliding hole 16, and the movement in the left and right directions will cause the T-shaped moving frame 15 to move back and forth left and right through the strip-shaped sliding hole 16. During this process, the T-shaped moving frame 15 will push and pull the pushing plate 10 back and forth, so that the pushing plate 10 periodically pushes the terminal bar body 3. When the lowermost terminal bar body 3 located in the pushing slot 9 is pushed out of the pushing slot 9, under the elastic pulling of the spring 5, the straight rod 6 will be pulled down, so as to drive the feeding plate 8 to move down through the push rod 7, and the uppermost terminal bar body 3 is pushed by the feeding plate 8. During this process, the terminal bar body 3 will move down as a whole, and the terminal bar body 3 closest to the pushing slot 9 will be pushed into the pushing slot 9 after the pushing plate 10 is completely retracted, so as to perform subsequent pushing and pulling processing, so that the pushing plate 10 periodically feeds the terminal bar. During the whole feeding process, the terminal bar body 3 is always in a relatively stable state and will not produce unstable conditions such as shaking. Therefore, the feeding port can accurately receive the terminal bar and thus accurately assemble and process it.
