Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0024] See also Figures 1 to 7 The utility model provides a production line for automotive screw inserts, including a support frame 1 and a discharge belt 2 and a feed belt 3 connected to the top of the support frame 1. The feed belt 3 is docked with the discharge end of the vibration plate 4. The discharge belt 2 and the feed belt 3 are driven by corresponding motors, which can drive the operation of the discharge belt 2 and the feed belt 3, thereby facilitating the transportation of products. The support frame 1 is connected to a limiting mechanism for limiting the screw insert, and the support frame 1 is fixed with a fixing frame 5, and the fixing frame 5 is connected to a grabbing mechanism for grabbing the screw insert. The grabbing mechanism includes a lifting arm 8, a motor 16, and a mechanical claw 10. The mechanical claw 10 is connected to the end of the lifting arm 8. The motor 16 is used to drive the lifting arm 8 to move up and down, and the motor 16 is connected to a mounting plate 7. The mounting plate 7 is connected to a driving mechanism for driving the lifting arm 8 to move horizontally.

[0025] The limiting mechanism includes a cylinder 11, a cylinder base 12, a pressure plate 13, and a limiting seat 14. The cylinder base 12 and the limiting seat 14 are arranged relative to each other and are connected to the support frame 1. The cylinder 11 is connected to the cylinder base 12, and the power output end of the cylinder 11 is connected to the pressure plate 13. The vibrating plate 4 conveys the product to the feed belt 3, which transfers the product until it moves to the appropriate position, which is the notch at the top of the support frame 1. Then, the cylinder 11 drives the pressure plate 13 forward, and the pressure plate 13 pushes the product to the limiting seat 14, placing the product in a suitable grasping position.

[0026] A notch is provided on the top of the support frame 1 , which is aligned with the limit seat 14 , and the notch facilitates the reciprocating movement of the pressure plate 13 .

[0027] The gripping mechanism also includes a tooth head 17, a sliding block 21, a vertical guide rail 20, and a vertical tooth plate 21. The power output end of the motor 16 is connected to the tooth head 17, which matches the vertical tooth plate 21. The vertical tooth plate 21 and the vertical guide rail 20 are connected to the lifting arm 8. The sliding block 21 is fixed to the mounting plate 7, and the sliding block 21 is slidably connected to the vertical guide rail 20. The motor 16 can drive the tooth head 17 to rotate. The tooth head 17 cooperates with the vertical tooth plate 21 to achieve the lifting and lowering of the lifting arm 8 and the mechanical claw 10, thereby facilitating the lifting and lowering of the product. When the product is at an appropriate height, it is convenient for subsequent transportation and processing. During the lifting and lowering process of the lifting arm 8, the vertical guide rail 20 and the sliding block 21 slide relative to each other, which can improve the stability of the lifting and lowering of the lifting arm 8 and the mechanical claw 10.

[0028] Tooth head 17 is meshed and connected with the vertical tooth plate 21, and tooth head 22 is meshed and connected with the horizontal tooth plate 15. The meshed connection has high transmission efficiency, stable transmission, high reliability, and can ensure a constant instantaneous transmission ratio.

[0029] The driving mechanism includes a transverse tooth plate 15, a sliding block 18, a tooth head 22, a transverse guide rail 23, and a motor 24. The sliding block 18 and the motor 24 are connected to the mounting plate 7, and the sliding block 18 is slidably connected to the transverse guide rail 23. The top of the fixed frame 5 is connected to the transverse plate 6. The transverse tooth plate 15 and the transverse guide rail 23 are fixed to the transverse plate 6. The motor 24 is used to drive the tooth head 22 to rotate. When the product is at an appropriate height, the motor 24 drives the tooth head 22 to rotate. The tooth head 22 cooperates with the transverse tooth plate 15 to make the movable cover 9, the lifting arm 8, and the product move back and forth along the length of the transverse plate 6, making it easier to place the product inside the machine tool for processing, replacing traditional manual operation, saving time and effort, and increasing safety. When the product moves back and forth, the sliding block 18 and the transverse guide rail 23 slide relative to each other, improving the stability of the product movement.

[0030] The output shaft of motor 24 and the output shaft of motor 1 16 are rotationally connected to the mounting plate 7, so that the output shaft rotates stably, ensuring that the tooth head 17 and the tooth head 2 22 rotate stably, avoiding separation from the corresponding tooth plate (horizontally and vertically), affecting the transmission effect.

[0031] The mounting plate 7 is connected to a movable cover 9 , which covers the motor 1 16 and the motor 2 24 .

[0032] Working Principle: Vibrating plate 4 conveys the product to feed belt 3, which delivers it to the notch at the top of support frame 1. Cylinder 11 then drives pressure plate 13 forward, pushing the product to limit seat 14, thereby limiting the product's position. Motor 1 16 drives tooth head 1 17 to rotate. This, in conjunction with vertical tooth plate 21, facilitates the raising and lowering of lift arm 8, thereby raising and lowering mechanical claw 10. Mechanical claw 10 grabs the product and moves it to the desired height. Motor 2 24 drives tooth head 2 22 to rotate. This, in conjunction with horizontal tooth plate 15, enables the reciprocating movement of lift arm 8 and the product, placing the product inside the machine tool for processing. This eliminates the need for manual operation, saves time and effort, and is safe and reliable. When the product is processed, mechanical claw 10 grabs the finished product and places it on discharge belt 2, which transports it to the next processing equipment for continued operation, demonstrating its high practicality.

[0033] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
