Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of metal exhaust pipe production equipment, in particular to a metal exhaust pipe main end cover mounting device. Background Art

[0002] Gas water heaters use liquefied petroleum gas or natural gas as fuel. The heat generated by combustion is transferred to the water through a heat exchanger to heat it up. The gases generated during combustion need to be discharged to the outside world. Therefore, each combustion water heater will have an exhaust pipe, which usually has a straight section and a curved section. Usually, the exhaust pipe is produced in sections. Because if an integrated molding method is adopted, in order to accommodate the long metal pipe while keeping the steps unchanged, each placement position needs to be made very long, and the processing equipment needs to be made very large. Therefore, basically, segmented production is adopted, that is, the main pipe and the short pipe are produced separately. However, the current production process still requires a lot of manual assistance, and there is no complete automated assembly line production. Materials need to be continuously transferred and processed, which results in long production time and low efficiency.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0024] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.

[0025] Please refer to Figure 1-6 ;

[0026] The installation device described in the present invention is intended to realize the installation of the end cap of the main pipe. The interior of the main pipe is hollow. Installing the end cap at the end of the main pipe is a requirement of the current exhaust pipe. After the main pipe is punched, it is transferred to the installation device. It should be noted that the device is part of the overall production line, but it can also be used separately according to needs in actual production; it specifically includes an end cap conveying assembly 31, and a material shifting assembly 32 is provided at the end of the end cap conveying assembly 31. An end cap transfer assembly 33 is provided at the position corresponding to the material shifting assembly 32. In this embodiment, the end cap conveying assembly 31 adopts a belt conveying method. During the conveying process, the end cap body is in a horizontal state. A notch for outputting the end cap body is provided at the end of the end cap conveying assembly 31, and the end cap transfer assembly 33 is located below the outer edge of the notch. Preferably, the material shifting assembly 32 is composed of a cylinder and a shifting rod. When the end cap body is conveyed to the position corresponding to the notch, the shifting rod is driven by the cylinder to move, and the shifting rod pushes the end cap body to move toward the notch and fall into the end cap transfer assembly 33. During this process, the end cap body stands upright and enters the end cap transfer assembly 33.

[0027] At this time, the end cap transfer assembly 33 is in a position away from the installation assembly 34. At the same time, a placement position is provided in the installation assembly 34. The main pipe is placed therein through an external conveying device, and then the end cap transfer assembly 33 moves toward the installation assembly 34 and finally aligns with the end of the main pipe. The end cap body in the end cap transfer assembly 33 is obtained through the installation assembly 34, and then the end cap transfer assembly 33 is reset so that the end cap body directly corresponds to the end of the main pipe. Finally, the installation assembly 34 pushes the end cap body toward the end of the main pipe to complete the installation. The above method realizes the automated production operation of the main pipe and the end cap, provides an implementation plan for the fully automated production of the exhaust pipe, and improves production efficiency.

[0028] There are two ways to install the end cover body and the main pipe in the present invention. The first way is through interference fit. When the installation component 34 pushes the end cover body into the end of the main pipe, it is squeezed and fixed by deformation. The second way is through laser welding. A resistance welding component (not shown) is provided at the corresponding installation position. A rotating component 36 is provided on the installation component 34. After the installation component 34 pushes the end cover body into the main pipe, the installation component 34 contacts the end cover body to fix it, only supporting the end cover body to prevent it from falling. Then the resistance welding component welds the main pipe and the end cover body. At the same time, the rotating component 36 drives the main pipe to rotate and change the angle, so that the connection position between the main pipe and the end cover body can be welded and fixed.

[0029] The rotating assembly 36 of the present invention adopts another method, specifically including a movable plate 2 361, a rotating cylinder 1 362 is installed on the movable plate 2 361, an air gripper 3 363 is installed at the output end of the rotating cylinder 1 362, and a chuck 364 is installed at the output end of the air gripper 363. The chuck 364 is formed with a clamping groove 365. The air gripper 363 drives the chuck 364 to move so that the clamping groove 365 clamps the main pipe, and then the rotating cylinder 1 362 drives the air gripper 363 to rotate, thereby rotating the main pipe.

[0030] One embodiment of the end cover transfer assembly 33 of the present invention specifically includes a driver five 331, an output end carrier 332 of the driver five 331, a cavity is provided in the carrier 332, an opening 334 for the end cover body to enter is provided above the carrier 332, and an outlet 336 for taking out the end cover body is provided on one side of the carrier 332. Preferably, two baffles 335 are provided at the opening 334, and an inclined surface is provided at the entrance to form a channel to guide the end cover body. In addition, a "V"-shaped inclined surface is provided in the cavity to clamp and prevent tipping.

[0031] In this embodiment, the driver five 331 can be a combination of a cylinder and a sliding pair. The toggle assembly pushes the end cover body, which was originally in a horizontal state, toward the notch, so that it gradually changes from a horizontal state to an upright state and finally falls into the channel and further into the cavity. An outlet 336 for taking out the end cover body is provided on one side of the carrier 332. The area of ​​the outlet 336 is larger than the area of ​​the end cover body, so that the installation assembly 34 can take it out from the outlet 336. Preferably, a telescopic block 333 is provided on the carrier 332 corresponding to the outlet 336 for assisting in fixing the end cover body. When the end cover body is taken out from the outlet 336 and passes through the telescopic block 333, it will be pressed into the carrier 332 and will be ejected after crossing.

[0032] One embodiment of the mounting assembly 34 of the present invention specifically includes a base 341, a movable plate 1 342 is slidably connected to the base 341, a movable seat 343 is slidably connected to the movable plate 1 342, and an adsorption head 344 is installed on the movable seat 343. In one usage method, when the carrier 332 moves to the base 341, the movable plate 1 342 is pulled by the driver 8 346 to move the movable seat 343 toward the carrier 332, the adsorption head 344 corresponds to the outlet 336, and the adsorption head 344 enters the cavity and contacts the end cover body, the driver 6 345 pushes the movable seat 343 to move away from the carrier 332, and at the same time brings the end cover body out from the outlet 336, and then the carrier 332 is reset under the drive of the driver 5 331.

[0033] Preferably, the movable plate 2 361 is slidably connected to the base 341, and the movable plate 2 361 is connected to the driver 7 366. In one embodiment, the movable seat 343 and the rotating assembly 36 are in a state of being separated, and a larger space is reserved for the main pipe to enter. After the main pipe enters the placement position, the movable seat 343 and the rotating assembly 36 are close to each other, and the clamping groove 365 in the rotating assembly 36 fixes one end of the main pipe, and the movable seat 343 drives the end cover body to contact and connect with the other end of the main pipe.

[0034] Furthermore, the placement position includes at least two linearly distributed fixed plates 351, an arc-shaped placement groove 352 is provided on the fixed plate 351, and a roller 2 353 is provided on the fixed plate 351. The roller 2 353 protrudes from the placement groove and contacts the main pipe. When the main pipe rotates, the roller can be used to assist in rotation.

[0035] Preferably, it also includes a multi-axis moving mechanism 2 371, on which are mounted a plurality of linearly distributed clamping jaws 2 372, which are composed of air claws and arc-shaped clamping arms, and the arc-shaped clamping arms are provided with a plurality of rollers 373 protruding from the inner side. In one of the usage modes, when the main pipe enters the placement position, the clamping jaws 2 372 do not release, but maintain the clamping state of the main pipe, and when the main pipe rotates, the rollers 373 assist in synchronous rotation, thereby fixing the main pipe.
