Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of automation equipment, in particular to a nail separating device and riveting equipment with the same. Background Art

[0002] The self-pierce riveting process used in riveting equipment is a new type of joining process that has played an important role in aluminum and steel-aluminum joining in recent years. However, during its use, zinc powder from the galvanized coating may fall off when the rivets are transported through the riveting equipment. This fallen zinc powder accumulates in the rivet separation mechanism, causing malfunctions. For example, the accumulated zinc powder can cause the rivet separation blade and the cylinder rod that drives the rivet separation blade to become stuck and unable to move properly, making rivet separation impossible. It can also damage related parts such as the rivet separation blade and the cylinder. Parts such as the rivet separation blade are imported, resulting in long procurement cycles and high maintenance costs. When some zinc powder is blown to the receiver end of subsequent processes, problems such as rivet flipping, miscarriage, rivet damage, and spindle jamming can occur, resulting in unstable subsequent riveting quality. To reduce the damage caused by zinc powder accumulation, the machine often needs to be shut down for cleaning and maintenance. However, zinc powder cleaning is difficult and challenging, resulting in long maintenance downtime for riveting equipment. Utility Model Content

[0053] The following describes in detail embodiments of the present invention, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0054] First, refer to Figures 1-10 A brief description is given of the riveting equipment according to the embodiment of the second aspect of the present invention. The riveting equipment is used to perform riveting operations on parts to be riveted. The riveting equipment includes a nail feeder, a nail separating device 100 and a process receiver. The nail feeder blows rivets into the nail separating device 100. The nail separating device 100 separates single rivets from the stored rivets according to riveting needs. The separated single rivets are then blown from the conveying pipe to the receiver for subsequent riveting operations. In the process of the rivets from the nail feeder to the nail separating device 100, zinc powder falls off due to friction between the rivets, and the zinc powder gradually accumulates in the nail separating device 100 along with the rivets.

[0055] Reference below Figures 1-10 A nail separating device 100 according to an embodiment of the first aspect of the present invention is described.

[0056] like Figures 1-10 As shown, the nail separating device 100 according to the embodiment of the first aspect of the present invention includes: a device body 10 and a nail separating member 20, the device body 10 is formed with a nail separating cavity 101, a nail feeding channel 121 and a nail outlet channel 122, the nail separating cavity 101 is connected to the nail feeding channel 121 and the nail outlet channel 122; the nail separating member 20 is provided with a nail pushing groove 201, and the nail separating member 20 is arranged along a first direction (such as Figure 4The left and right directions shown in the figure are movable between a loading position and an unloading position. In the loading position, the nail pushing groove 201 is connected to the nail feeding channel 121. In the unloading position, the nail pushing groove 201 is connected to the nail outlet channel 122. The device body 10 is provided with an air inlet hole 131 and a chip removal through hole 112. Both the air inlet hole 131 and the chip removal through hole 112 are connected to the nail separation chamber 101. The air inlet hole 131 is configured to introduce chip blowing gas into the nail separation chamber 101 so that the debris is discharged from the chip removal through hole 112 out of the nail separation chamber 101.

[0057] The nail separating device 100 in this embodiment includes a device body 10 and a nail separating member 20. The device body 10 forms a nail separating chamber 101 and a nail feeding channel 121 and a nail discharging channel 122 connected to the nail separating chamber 101. The nail separating member 20 is arranged in the nail separating chamber 101 and is provided with a nail pushing groove 201. The structure is simple and can well meet the needs of separating rivets. When the nail separating device 100 is in operation, when the nail separating member 20 performs nail separating operation, the nail separating member 20 can be in a loading position, so that the nail pushing groove 201 is connected with the nail feeding channel, and the rivets can be blown into the nail pushing groove 201 along the nail feeding channel. The nail separating member 20 moves toward the unloading position, so that the rivets fallen into the nail pushing groove 201 follow the movement of the nail separating member 20. After the nail separating member 20 moves to the unloading position, the rivets in the nail pushing groove 201 can be blown into the nail discharging channel 122, and then the rivets can be blown to the receiver of the next process, thereby realizing the separation of the rivets.

[0058] In this embodiment, the nail separating member 20 is provided with a nail pushing groove 201. When the nail separating member 20 is in the loading position, the nail pushing groove 201 is connected to the nail feeding channel. When the nail separating member 20 is in the unloading position, the nail pushing groove 201 is connected to the nail output channel 122, so that the rivet can stably enter the nail pushing groove 201 from the nail feeding channel and enter the nail output channel 122 from the nail pushing groove 201, so that the nail separating member 20 can stably perform the nail separating operation.

[0059] It is understandable that during the operation of the separating device 100, as rivets enter and exit the separating chamber 101, zinc dust shed by the rivets gradually accumulates in the separating chamber 101. Since the gap between the separating member 20 and the wall of the separating chamber 101 needs to be set very small to meet the needs of rivet transportation and separation, the accumulated zinc dust has a significant impact on the movement of the separating member 20 in the separating chamber 101, causing the separating member 20 to become stuck and unable to separate the rivets, causing the cylinder rod of the cylinder driving the separating member 20 to become stuck, and even causing the separating member 20 and the cylinder to be damaged, requiring repair and replacement. When the accumulated dust spreads from the nail outlet channel 122 to the receiver, it will cause the receiver and other related parts to become stuck and damaged.

[0060] In this embodiment, an air inlet 131 and a chip removal hole 112 are provided on the device body 10. The air inlet 131 and the chip removal hole 112 are both connected to the nail separation chamber 101. The air inlet 131 is configured to pass chip blowing gas into the nail separation chamber 101 so that the debris is discharged from the nail separation chamber 101 through the chip removal hole 112. The air inlet 131 and the chip removal hole 112 have a simple structure, so that when there are zinc shreds in the nail separation chamber 101, the chip blowing gas can blow the zinc shreds into the nail separation chamber 101. Blowing is performed so that the zinc chips in the nail chamber 101 flow to the chip removal through hole 112 under the blowing of the chip blowing gas and are discharged from the nail chamber 101 from the chip removal through hole 112. It should be noted that since the volume and mass of the zinc chips are very small, the zinc chips in the nail chamber 101 are distributed in a dispersed state and accumulated in the nail chamber 101. Therefore, under the blowing of the chip blowing gas, the zinc chips will follow the airflow to flow to the chip removal through hole 112 and be discharged from the chip removal through hole 112.

[0061] It is understandable that the current manual cleaning of zinc dust requires the equipment to be shut down for maintenance, which takes more than 50 minutes each time. In addition, both sides need to be cleaned of zinc dust every day, which makes cleaning difficult and ineffective.

[0062] In this embodiment, by providing an air inlet 131 and a chip removal hole 112 in communication with the nail separation chamber 101, zinc dust in the nail separation chamber 101 can be promptly discharged from the nail separation chamber 101, thereby effectively preventing the accumulation of zinc dust in the nail separation chamber 101. This effectively prevents the nail separation member 20 from getting stuck, and prevents the accumulated zinc powder from flowing into the receiver and causing damage to the receiver and other related parts. As a result, the nail separation device 100 can operate more stably and reliably, and the time required for manual cleaning of debris is saved. This makes the nail separation device 100 more convenient and easy to maintain, shortens maintenance time, reduces maintenance costs, and enables the riveting equipment to operate more efficiently.

[0063] According to the nail separating device 100 of the embodiment of the present invention, an air inlet hole 131 and a chip removal hole 112 are provided. The air inlet hole 131 and the chip removal hole 112 are both connected to the nail separating chamber 101 of the device body 10. The air inlet hole 131 is configured to pass chip blowing gas into the nail separating chamber 101 so that debris can be discharged from the nail separating chamber 101 through the chip removal hole 112. The structure is simple, so that the nail separating device 100 can clean the zinc powder in the nail separating chamber 101 in time, and the cleaning is convenient and easy, which effectively avoids the nail separating device 100 from malfunctions such as the nail separating member 20 being stuck, making the nail separating device 100 more stable in operation and more convenient to maintain, thereby reducing the maintenance cost of the riveting equipment and allowing it to operate more efficiently.

[0064] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 5As shown, the inner wall surface of the nail separation cavity 101 can also be provided with a chip removal groove 111, and a chip removal through hole 112 is formed in the chip removal groove 111. When the nail separation member 20 is in the unloading position, at least part of the chip removal groove 111 is exposed in the nail separation cavity 101.

[0065] In this embodiment, a chip removal groove 111 is provided on the inner wall surface of the nail separation chamber 101. The chip removal groove 111 can accommodate the debris in the nail separation chamber 101. When the nail separation device 100 is in operation, the zinc dust entering the nail separation chamber 101 can be accommodated in the chip removal groove 111, thereby effectively separating the amount of debris in the movable space of the nail separation member 20 in the nail separation chamber 101. This can further reduce the obstruction and influence of the debris on the nail separation member 20 during the movement of the nail separation member 20, so that the nail separation member 20 can move stably and smoothly.

[0066] In this embodiment, the chip removal hole 112 is formed in the chip removal groove 111. The chip removal groove 111 can guide and converge the flow of zinc powder and other debris, so that when the chip blowing gas enters the air inlet 131, the debris in the chip removal groove 111 can flow along the extension direction of the chip removal groove 111 to the chip removal hole 112 and be discharged from the chip removal hole 112, so that the zinc powder in the nail separation chamber 101 can be better discharged, and the zinc powder in the nail separation chamber 101 can be cleaned more cleanly, so that the nail separation device 100 can operate normally more stably and reliably.

[0067] In this embodiment, when the nail separator 20 is at the unloading position, at least a portion of the chip removal groove 111 is exposed in the nail separator cavity 101. It can be understood that when the nail separator 20 and the nail separator cavity 101 are assembled, the distance between the nail separator 20 and the inner wall surface of the nail separator cavity 101 is very small. The nail separator 20 will block the chip removal groove 111 and the chip removal through hole 112, making the air flow space between the air inlet hole 131 and the chip removal through hole 112 narrow. When the nail separator 20 moves from the loading position to the unloading position, the zinc dust will be dispersed into the nail separator cavity 101 as the nail separator 20 moves, and some of the dust will float into the chip removal groove 111. As the nail separator 20 moves from the unloading position When the rivet is moved toward the loading position, the separating nail piece 20 can push the zinc chips, causing the zinc chips to gather more. Since the chip discharge groove 111 is provided in this embodiment, the separating nail piece 20 can push the chips into the chip discharge groove 111, thereby avoiding the chips from hindering the movement of the separating nail piece 20. At the same time, since the rivet has been moved out of the separating nail cavity 101, the separating nail cavity 101 will no longer increase the zinc chips. Therefore, during the reciprocating movement of the separating nail cavity 101, the dispersed zinc chips will gradually accumulate in the space near the nail feeding channel 121 of the separating nail cavity 101 as the separating nail piece 20 moves, and accumulate and store in the chip discharge groove 111.

[0068] When the nail separator 20 moves to the unloading position, the space near the nail feeding channel 121 of the nail separator chamber 101 forms a cavity structure as the nail separator 20 moves away. In this embodiment, at least part of the chip discharge groove 111 is exposed in the nail separator chamber 101, that is, it is exposed in the cavity formed in the nail separator chamber 101. In this way, after the chip blowing gas is introduced into the air inlet 131, the chip blowing gas can have a relatively smooth flow space, so that the zinc chips can be more smoothly and completely discharged from the nail separator chamber 101 under the blowing of the chip blowing gas, so that the debris can be more easily cleaned, so that the zinc chips can be discharged in time when the nail separator 20 moves to the loading position, so that the nail separator 20 can move smoothly in the nail separator chamber 101.

[0069] In one embodiment of the present invention, reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the nail cavity 101 has a second direction (such as Figure 4 The first side wall 1201 and the second side wall 1101 are arranged relatively to each other in the front-to-back direction (as shown in the figure), the outlet end of the nail entry channel 121 and the inlet end of the nail exit channel 122 can both pass through the first side wall 1201 and be arranged at intervals in the first direction, the chip removal through hole 112 and the chip removal groove 111 can be provided on the second side wall 1101, and the second direction intersects with the first direction.

[0070] In this embodiment, the nail separation chamber 101 is formed with an outlet end of a nail entry channel 121 and an inlet end of a nail exit channel 122 on the first side wall 1201. The outlet end and the inlet end are arranged at intervals in the first direction. The structure is simple and the arrangement is reasonable. It can well cooperate with the movement of the nail separation member 20 along the first direction between the loading position and the unloading position to separate the nails. The chip removal through hole 112 and the chip removal groove 111 are arranged on the second side wall 1101 which is arranged opposite to the first side wall 1201 in the second direction, so that the chip removal through hole 112 and the chip removal groove 111 are more convenient to arrange, and the chip removal groove 111 and the chip removal through hole 112 are arranged at a position farther away from the outlet end, so that the chip removal groove 111 can better collect debris.

[0071] In some examples of the present invention, reference Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the second side wall 1101 may be provided with an air hole, and the nail pushing groove 201 may pass through the nail separating member 20 in the second direction. When the nail separating member 20 is in the unloading position, the air hole is adapted to blow air toward the nail pushing groove 201 in the second direction to cause the rivet to enter the nail output channel 122. This can meet the driving requirements when the rivet enters the nail output channel 122 from the nail pushing groove 201. Specifically, the rivet is usually transported by air blowing. When the rivet enters the nail pushing groove 201 from the nail input channel 121, air blows the rivet toward the nail pushing groove 201, causing the rivet to enter the nail pushing groove 201. When the rivet enters the nail output channel 122 from the nail pushing groove 201, air is introduced into the air hole to cause the rivet to enter the nail output channel 122, thereby allowing the nail separating device 100 to perform the nail separating operation normally.

[0072] In some examples of the present invention, reference Figure 4 As shown, when the nail separating member 20 is in the unloading position, the nail separating member 20 can block the outlet end of the nail feeding channel 121. This can prevent the rivets in the nail feeding channel 121 from accidentally falling into the nail separating cavity 101 and hindering the movement of the nail separating member 20, so that the nail separating device 100 can operate stably.

[0073] In one example of the present invention, reference Figure 5 As shown, the air inlet 131 can be arranged in the first direction away from the air blowing hole and the inlet end of the nail output channel 122. This can prevent debris from being blown into the nail output channel 122 when the air inlet 131 is sucked in. It can also prevent the air intake of the air inlet 131 from interfering with and affecting the rivet blowing of the air blowing hole when the nail separating member 20 moves to the unloading device to deliver the rivets. This allows the nail separating device 100 to stably separate nails, and ensures stable operation of related components such as the receiver in the next process of the nail separating device 100.

[0074] In one example of the present invention, the air inlet 131 can be configured to introduce chip-blowing gas into the nail-splitting chamber 101 when the nail-splitting member 20 is in the unloading position. This allows the air inlet 131 to blow away zinc dust while the nail-splitting chamber 101 is isolated from the nail-feeding channel 121, preventing some of the debris from flowing into the nail-feeding channel 121 during debris cleaning, allowing the debris to be cleaned more thoroughly. The cavity formed by the nail-splitting member 20 and the inner wall of the nail-splitting chamber 101 provides a larger flow space for the introduced chip-blowing gas, thereby reducing the gas flow toward the air blowing hole and the inlet end of the nail-discharging channel 122 to a certain extent, allowing the nail-splitting device 100 to stably separate and unload nails.

[0075] In some examples of the present invention, Figure 5 As shown, at least a portion of the chip groove 111 may be tilted relative to the first direction.

[0076] In this embodiment, at least a portion of the chip removal groove 111 is tilted relative to the first direction, so that the chip removal groove 111 can be tilted in the vertical direction (such as Figure 5 In the vertical direction shown in the figure and in the second direction, a larger area of ​​the nail separation chamber 101 can be covered, so that the chip discharge groove 111 can better collect and store the zinc crushed chips in the nail separation chamber 101, so that the amount of chips dispersed in the nail separation chamber 101 and located in the active space of the nail separation member 20 can be reduced, thereby better reducing the probability of the nail separation member 20 being stuck, allowing the nail separation device 100 to operate more stably, and allowing the chips to be cleaned more completely and timely.

[0077] In some examples of the present invention, reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, when the staple separating member 20 moves from the loading position to the unloading position along the first direction, the chip discharge groove 111 can extend obliquely toward the bottom wall of the staple separating cavity 101 .

[0078] In this embodiment, the chip removal groove 111 extends obliquely toward the bottom wall of the separation chamber 101 as the separation member 20 moves along the first direction from the loading position to the unloading position. This simple structure and easy processing and molding effectively meet the needs of accumulating, storing, and discharging zinc dust. Specifically, the chip removal groove 111 extends vertically from the upper end of the separation member 20 to the bottom end of the chip removal groove 111. This allows the chip removal groove 111 to completely cover the extension range of the separation member 20 in the third direction, allowing the zinc dust to be better collected within the chip removal groove 111. This reduces the risk of the separation member 20 becoming stuck at a certain position in the second direction due to zinc dust accumulation, allowing the separation member 20 to operate more stably and reliably.

[0079] In one example of the present invention, reference Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the chip removal hole 112 can be arranged at one end of the chip removal groove 111 facing the bottom wall of the nail separation chamber 101. In this way, the chips can flow more stably and quickly along the chip removal groove 111 to the chip removal hole 112 under the action of their own gravity, thereby making it more convenient and stable to clean the chips in the nail separation chamber 101.

[0080] In some examples of the present invention, Figure 6 As shown, in the direction from the top wall toward the bottom wall of the nail separation cavity 101 , the chip groove 111 can be configured to first extend obliquely away from the inlet end of the nail outlet channel 122 , and then extend obliquely toward the inlet end of the nail outlet channel 122 .

[0081] In this embodiment, the chip groove 111 first extends obliquely away from the inlet end of the nail outlet channel 122 and then extends obliquely toward the inlet end of the nail outlet channel 122. The chip groove 111 can be formed into a V-shaped, arc-shaped, or U-shaped structure with an opening toward the inlet end of the nail outlet channel 122. This can increase the total length of the chip groove 111, thereby providing the chip groove 111 with a larger storage space to accommodate zinc dust, thereby further reducing the impact of zinc dust on the movement of the nail separator 20, and allowing the nail separator 100 to operate more stably. Optionally, a chip removal through hole 112 can be provided at the lower end of the chip groove 111.

[0082] In some examples of the present invention, Figure 7 As shown, the chip removal groove 111 may include: a first chip removal segment 1111, a second chip removal segment 1113 and a connecting segment 1112. In the direction in which the nail separation member 20 moves from the loading position to the unloading position along the first direction, the chip removal groove 111 extends obliquely toward the bottom wall of the nail separation cavity 101; the second chip removal segment 1113 is arranged parallel to the first chip removal segment 1111 and is arranged at intervals in the first direction; the connecting segment 1112 is connected between the first chip removal segment 1111 and the second chip removal segment 1113.

[0083] In this embodiment, the chip removal groove 111 includes a first chip removal segment 1111 and a second chip removal segment 1113 arranged in parallel. The first chip removal segment 1111 and the second chip removal segment 1113 both extend at an angle and are connected by a connecting segment 1112. This allows the chip removal groove 111 to better cover the extension and range of motion of the nail separation member 20 in the first direction and the vertical direction, allowing zinc dust to be more completely and fully stored and collected in the chip removal groove 111, thereby effectively reducing the risk of the nail separation member 20 getting stuck and ensuring more stable operation of the nail separation device 100. Optionally, the connecting groove can extend linearly along the first direction, allowing the zinc dust to more smoothly move between the connecting segment 1112 and the first and second chip removal segments 1111 and 1113 as the nail separation member 20 moves or is blown by the chip blowing gas.

[0084] In one embodiment of the present invention, reference Figure 5-Figure 7 As shown, the number of chip removal holes 112 can be one or more. When the number of chip removal holes 112 is multiple, the multiple chip removal holes 112 are arranged at intervals along the extension direction of the chip removal groove 111, and at least one chip removal hole 112 is arranged at the end of the chip removal groove 111 facing the bottom wall of the nail separation cavity 101.

[0085] In this embodiment, the number of chip removal holes 112 is set to one or more, so that the chip removal holes 112 can be flexibly arranged as needed. The multiple chip removal holes 112 are spaced apart along the extension direction of the chip removal groove 111. When the chip blowing gas is introduced into the air inlet 131 for chip removal, the zinc dust can be removed more quickly and efficiently, thereby further reducing the probability of the nail separating member 20 getting stuck to a certain extent, making the nail separating device 100 operate more stably and reliably.

[0086] In this embodiment, at least one chip removal hole 112 is arranged at the end of the chip removal groove 111 at one end of the bottom wall facing the separation nail cavity 101, which can prevent some zinc dust from accumulating and then remaining at the bottom of the chip removal groove 111 under the action of its own weight, so that the zinc dust in the separation nail cavity 101 can be cleaned more reliably.

[0087] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 1 As shown, the device body 10 may include: a fixed seat 12, a chip removal seat 11 and a mounting seat 13. The fixed seat 12 is provided with a nail feed channel 121 and a nail output channel 122. The nail feed channel 121 and the nail output channel 122 both extend along the second direction and are arranged at intervals in the first direction. The nail feed channel 121 is used to assemble the feeding end of the feeding tube, and the nail output channel 122 is used to assemble the feeding end of the output tube; the chip removal seat 11 is provided on one side of the fixed seat 12 in the second direction; there are two mounting seats 13 and they are respectively arranged on both sides of the fixed seat 12 and the chip removal seat 11 in the first direction. The chip removal seat 11, the fixed seat 12 and the mounting seat 13 cooperate to define a nail cavity 101.

[0088] In this embodiment, the device body 10 includes a fixed seat 12, a chip removal seat 11, and a mounting seat 13. The chip removal seat 11 cooperates with the fixed seat 12 and the mounting seat 13 to define a nail separation chamber 101. The structure is simple and easy to assemble. The fixed seat 12 is provided with a nail feed channel 121 and a nail output channel 122, which can well meet the use requirements of the device body 10. In this embodiment, the nail feed channel 121 is used to assemble the feed end of the feed tube, and the nail output channel 122 is used to assemble the feed end of the output tube, which can well meet the needs of rivet transportation and nail separation. The chip removal seat 11 is arranged on the side of the fixed seat 12 in the father direction, and the side wall of the chip removal seat 11 facing the fixed seat 12 can be formed as a second side wall 1101. The chip removal through hole 112 passes through the chip removal seat 11 along the second direction, and the side of the fixed seat 12 facing the chip removal seat 11 can form a first side wall 1201.

[0089] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 As shown, the number of nail feeding channels 121 can be two, and the two nail feeding channels 121 are respectively arranged on both sides of the nail outlet channel 122 in the first direction, wherein the number of nail separating parts 20 is two, and the two nail separating parts 20 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence with the two nail feeding channels 121.

[0090] In this embodiment, there are two nail feed channels 121, which are arranged on either side of the nail output channel 122 in the first direction. This allows the nail separating device 100 to separate two types of rivets as needed, providing improved functionality. Two nail separating members 20 are provided, corresponding one-to-one with the two nail feed channels 121. This provides a simple structure and can meet the nail separation needs of the two nail feed channels 121. The two nail separating members 20 can be symmetrically arranged in the first direction so that both nail separating members 20 can push rivets into the nail output channel 122.

[0091] In some examples of the present invention, reference Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the fixed seat 12 may include: a mounting portion and a slide rail portion, the mounting portion is formed with a nail entry channel 121 and a nail exit channel 122, the surface of the mounting portion facing the chip removal seat 11 forms a first side wall 1201, the slide rail portion is arranged on the side of the mounting portion facing the chip removal seat 11, and the nail separation piece 20 slides in cooperation with the slide rail portion.

[0092] In this embodiment, the fixing seat 12 is provided with a slide rail portion that slidably cooperates with the nail separating member 20 . The slide rail portion can support the nail separating member 20 so that the nail separating member 20 can move stably in the nail separating cavity 101 .

[0093] In one example of the present invention, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the upper ends of the nail entry channel 121 and the nail exit channel 122 can be opened, and the device body 10 can also include a mounting plate 14, which is detachably connected to the mounting portion and covers one end of the nail entry channel 121 and the nail exit channel 122 facing the nail separation cavity 101, and the mounting plate 14 cooperates with the mounting portion to form an inlet end and an outlet end connected to the nail separation cavity 101.

[0094] In this embodiment, the upper ends of the nail inlet channel 121 and the nail outlet channel 122 are opened, and the mounting plate 14 is detachably connected to the mounting portion, which can facilitate the assembly of the feed pipe and the outlet pipe in the nail inlet channel 121 and the nail outlet channel 122. The mounting plate 14 can cooperate with the nail inlet channel 121 and the nail outlet channel 122 to clamp and fix the feed pipe and the outlet pipe respectively, thereby making the assembly connection between the feed pipe and the outlet pipe and the nail separation device 100 more stable and reliable.

[0095] In this embodiment, the mounting plate 14 cooperates with the mounting portion to form an inlet end and an outlet end connected to the nail separation chamber 101, so that the outlet end of the nail feed channel 121 and the inlet end of the nail discharge channel 122 can form a closed opening connected to the nail separation chamber 101, so that the rivet can be in a relatively stable and closed conveying environment when moving from the feed tube to the nail separation chamber 101 and from the nail separation chamber 101 to the discharge tube, so that the conveying of the rivet at the nail separation device 100 can remain stable.

[0096] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, reference is made to Figure 3 As shown, a guide surface can be formed on the side of the inlet end facing the nail separation cavity 101. The guide surface is arranged on the side of the inlet end near the outlet end. The guide surface extends obliquely along the first direction toward the outlet end in the direction of the second direction toward the nail separation cavity 101. In this way, as the nail separation member 20 moves toward the discharge device, the guide surface can effectively abut and guide the rivets in the nail pushing groove 201, allowing the rivets to be stably positioned in the nail pushing groove 201 and move to the outlet end along the guide surface, thereby making the operation of the nail separation device 100 more stable.

[0097] In one embodiment of the present invention, reference Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, the air inlet hole 131 can be set on the mounting base 13, and the nail separating device 100 can also include a pump and an air inlet connector 50. The air inlet connector 50 is installed on the mounting base 13 and communicates with the air inlet hole 131. The pump is connected to the air inlet connector 50.

[0098] In this embodiment, the air inlet hole 131 is set on the mounting base 13, so that the air inlet hole 131 can be formed on the two side walls of the air inlet cavity in the first direction, so that the chip blowing gas can flow well toward the chip removal groove 111 and the chip removal through hole 112 when entering the separation nail cavity 101 from the air inlet hole 131, and a larger flow path is provided between the air inlet hole 131 and the chip removal through hole 112 and the chip removal groove 111, so that the chip blowing gas can fully purge the separation nail cavity 101, thereby making the debris in the separation nail cavity 101 can be cleaned more thoroughly.

[0099] In this embodiment, a pumping element and an air inlet connector 50 are provided. The air inlet connector 50 is connected to the air inlet hole 131. The pumping element is connected to the air inlet connector 50, resulting in a simple structure and easy assembly, effectively meeting the needs of debris removal. Optionally, the mounting base 13 may be formed with an air flow channel connecting the air inlet connector 50 and the air inlet hole 131, so that the chip-blowing gas can flow from the air inlet connector 50 to the air inlet hole 131. Optionally, the pumping element may be an air pump.

[0100] In one embodiment of the present invention, reference Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the nail separating device 100 can also include a driving mechanism 30, which is installed on the mounting base 13. The driving mechanism 30 includes a driving rod 31, one end of which extends into the nail separating cavity 101 and is connected to the nail separating member 20. The driving mechanism 30 is suitable for driving the nail separating member 20 to move between the loading position and the unloading position.

[0101] In this embodiment, the nail separating device 100 includes a drive mechanism 30 mounted on the mounting base 13. One end of a drive rod 31 extends into the nail separating cavity 101, connects to the nail separating member 20, and drives the nail separating member 20 to move. The structure is simple and can well meet the use requirements of the nail separating device 100. Optionally, the drive mechanism 30 can be a cylinder.

[0102] In some examples of the present invention, the driving rod 31 is detachably connected to the nail separating member 20 .

[0103] In this embodiment, the driving rod 31 is detachably connected to the nail separating member 20 , which has a simple structure and is easy to assemble, thereby facilitating the maintenance and replacement of the nail separating member 20 and making the maintenance of the nail separating device 100 more convenient.

[0104] In some examples of the present invention, Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, the nail separating device 100 may further include: a connecting head 40 and a quick-release structure 60, the connecting head 40 is connected to one end of the driving rod 31; the quick-release structure 60 is provided on the nail separating member 20, and one of the quick-release structure 60 and the connecting head 40 is provided with a locking protrusion 631 and the other is provided with a locking groove 41, and the connecting head 40 and the nail separating member 20 are connected by the locking protrusion 631 and the locking groove 41.

[0105] In this embodiment, the nail separating device 100 includes a connecting head 40 and a quick-release structure 60. The connecting head 40 is connected to one end of the driving rod 31. The quick-release structure 60 is arranged on the nail separating member 20. The connecting head 40 and the nail separating member are connected by the engagement of the protrusion 631 and the slot 41. The structure is simple, the connection is convenient and stable, and the disassembly is convenient. The arrangement of the connecting head 40 and the quick-release structure 60 can facilitate the processing and arrangement of the protrusion 631 and the slot 41, and facilitate replacement and maintenance.

[0106] In one example of the present invention, Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, the quick-release structure 60 may include a clamping member 63 , which is provided with a clamping protrusion 631 , and an outer peripheral surface of the connector 40 is provided with a clamping groove 41 , which extends in a ring shape along the circumference of the connector 40 .

[0107] In this embodiment, the quick-release structure 60 is provided with a clamping piece 63 and the clamping piece 63 is provided with a clamping protrusion 631, and the outer peripheral surface of the connecting head 40 is provided with a clamping groove 41. The structure is simple and easy to assemble. The clamping groove 41 extends into a ring shape along the circumference of the connecting head 40, so that the clamping fit between the clamping protrusion 631 and the clamping groove 41 has a large redundancy in the circumferential direction of the connecting head 40, so that when the connecting head 40 rotates, the clamping protrusion 631 and the clamping groove 41 can still be stably and reliably clamped together, thereby making the connection between the driving rod 31 and the nail separating member 20 more stable and reliable.

[0108] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, Figure 10 As shown, the clamping member 63 is movable between a clamping position and a detachable position along the radial direction of the connector 40. In the clamping position, the clamping protrusion 631 is engaged in the clamping slot 41. In the detachable position, the clamping protrusion 631 is disengaged from the clamping slot 41. The quick-release structure 60 may further include an elastic member 62, which is configured to always drive the clamping member 63 to move toward the clamping position.

[0109] In this embodiment, the clamping member 63 is movable between a clamping position and a detachable position along the radial direction of the connecting head 40, so that the clamping protrusion 631 and the clamping groove 41 can be stably clamped in the axial direction of the driving rod 31, so that the driving rod 31 can stably drive the nail separating member 20 to move along the first direction between the loading position and the unloading position.

[0110] In this embodiment, the quick-release structure 60 includes an elastic member 62, which is configured to always drive the clamping member 63 to move toward the clamping position, so that the clamping member 63 and the connecting head 40 are clamped more stably and reliably in the radial direction of the connecting head 40, and the clamping member 63 is stably and reliably in the clamping position under the elastic action of the elastic member 62, thereby making the connection between the connecting head 40 and the nail separating member 20 more stable and reliable.

[0111] When the connecting head 40 and the separating nail piece 20 need to be detached, the clamping piece 63 can overcome the elastic force of the elastic piece 62 under the action of external force and move from the clamping position to the detachable position. When the connecting head 40 and the separating nail piece 20 are assembled, after the external force applied to the clamping piece 63 is removed, the clamping piece 63 can move to the clamping position under the elastic force of the elastic piece 62 and remain stably in the clamping position under the continuous elastic action of the elastic piece 62.

[0112] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, the nail separating member 20 may be provided with a connecting sleeve 21 , the connecting head 40 is fitted into the connecting sleeve 21 , and the quick-release structure 60 is provided on the connecting sleeve 21 .

[0113] In this embodiment, the separating nail piece 20 is provided with a connecting sleeve 21, the connecting head 40 is fitted into the connecting sleeve 21, and the quick-release structure 60 is provided in the connecting sleeve 21. The structure is simple and can provide a larger installation layout position for the quick-release structure 60, so that the quick-release structure 60 and the separating nail piece 20 are more convenient and easy to process and assemble. The connecting sleeve 21 can, to a certain extent, play a guiding and positioning role in the assembly of the connecting head 40 and the separating nail piece 20, so that the clamping piece 63 of the quick-release structure 60 and the clamping groove 41 on the connecting head 40 can be matched in place more quickly and conveniently, making it more convenient and easy to assemble the connecting piece and the separating nail piece 20.

[0114] In some specific examples of the present invention, such as Figure 10 As shown, the quick-release structure 60 may further include: a mounting frame 61, the mounting frame 61 is arranged on the outside of the connecting sleeve 21, the mounting frame 61 cooperates with the connecting sleeve 21 to define a mounting cavity, the clamping member 63 may further include: an operating portion 634 and a rod portion 633, the operating portion 634 is arranged on the side of the mounting frame 61 away from the connecting sleeve 21, one end of the rod portion 633 is connected to the operating portion 634, and the other end of the rod portion 633 passes through the mounting frame 61 along the radial direction of the connecting sleeve 21 and is connected to the clamping protrusion 631, and the elastic member 62 is sleeved on the rod portion 633 located in the mounting cavity.

[0115] In this embodiment, the quick-release structure 60 is provided with a mounting frame 61, and the clamping member 63 is further provided with an operating portion 634 and a rod portion 633. The mounting frame 61 is fixed to the outside of the connecting sleeve 21 and cooperates with the connecting sleeve 21 to define a mounting cavity. The rod portion 633 of the clamping member 63 is passed through the mounting cavity and connected to the clamping protrusion 631 and the operating portion 634, so that the mounting frame 61 can play a good supporting role for the clamping member 63. The elastic member 62 is sleeved on the rod portion 633 located in the mounting cavity. The structure is simple and compact, which makes it easier to assemble the quick-release structure 60 on the connecting sleeve 21.

[0116] In a specific example of the present invention, Figure 10 As shown, the clamping member 63 may further include a guide portion 632 , which is disposed in the installation cavity and fixed to the rod portion 633 , and the guide portion 632 is slidably engaged with the side wall of the installation cavity.

[0117] In this embodiment, the clamping member 63 includes a guide portion 632, which is arranged in the installation cavity and fixed to the rod portion 633. The guide portion 632 slides with the side wall of the installation cavity. Specifically, the two ends of the elastic member 62 can respectively abut the top wall of the installation cavity and the guide portion 632, thereby forming a pressure on the clamping member 63 to drive it to engage with the card slot 41. The guide portion 632 slides with the side wall of the installation cavity, so that when the clamping member 63 moves between the clamping position and the detachable position, the movement of the clamping member 63 is more stable and reliable. The operating portion 634 can be arranged on the outside of the installation cavity to facilitate the operation and control of the clamping member.

[0118] In some specific examples of the present invention, such as Figure 10 As shown, a guiding slope can be formed on the end of the locking protrusion 631 facing the locking groove 41. The guiding slope is provided on the side of the locking protrusion 631 facing away from the nail separating member 20 in the first direction. In the radial direction from the outside to the inside of the connecting sleeve 21, the guiding slope extends obliquely along the axial direction of the connecting head 40 toward the nail separating member 20; and / or, the diameter of the connecting head 40 at one end facing the nail separating member 20 gradually decreases.

[0119] In this embodiment, a guiding slope is formed at one end of the locking protrusion 631 facing the locking groove 41, and the guiding slope is arranged on the side of the locking protrusion 631 away from the nail separating member 20 in the first direction. The structure is simple, so that when the locking protrusion 631 is assembled with the connecting head 40, the locking protrusion 631 moves relative to the connecting head 40 along the first direction. The guiding slope can be directed to the side of the connecting head 40 facing the nail separating member 20, so that the locking protrusion 631 can be guided by the guiding slope and the connecting head 40. The locking protrusion 631 can gradually move away from the connecting head 40 along the radial direction of the connecting head 40 and move toward the locking groove 41 along the first direction, so that the locking protrusion 631 can smoothly move to the outer peripheral position of the connecting head 40 and move to the locking groove 41 along the first direction. As a result, the connecting head 40 and the nail separating member 20 can be conveniently and easily engaged and assembled.

[0120] In this embodiment, the diameter of one end of the connecting head 40 facing downwardly toward the separating nail piece 20 gradually decreases, so that the latching protrusion 631 can move stably and smoothly along the outer circumference of the connecting head 40 in the first direction into the latching groove 41, thereby making it easy to assemble the connecting head 40 and the separating nail piece 20.

[0121] In this embodiment, a guiding slope is formed at the end of the latching protrusion 631 facing the latching slot 41, and at the same time, the diameter size of the end of the connecting head 40 facing the nail separating piece 20 gradually decreases. The guiding slope cooperates with the gradually decreasing end of the connecting head 40, so that the latching protrusion 631 can be more stably and conveniently fitted into the latching slot 41, thereby making the clamping assembly of the connecting head 40 and the nail separating piece 20 more convenient and easy, and making the assembly of the driving rod 31 and the nail separating piece 20 faster.

[0122] In one example of the present invention, reference Figure 9 As shown, there may be multiple quick-release structures 60 , and the multiple quick-release structures 60 are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the driving rod 31 .

[0123] In this embodiment, a plurality of quick-release structures 60 are provided, and the plurality of quick-release structures 60 are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the driving stem. The structure is simple, and the plurality of quick-release structures 60 can cooperate to more stably and reliably clamp the connecting head 40 and the nail separating member 20, thereby making the connection between the driving rod 31 and the nail separating member 20 more stable and reliable, and making the nail separating device 100 more stable and reliable.

[0124] Reference below Figures 1-10 The following describes a riveting device according to an embodiment of the second aspect of the present invention.
