[0007] Peripheral devices are arranged around the flow tray to save space. A cam divider is used to achieve intermittent motion of the flow tray, coordinating with production rhythm control. The device manually loads sliders onto the slider carrier, which rotates with the flow tray. During each rotation, the slider carrier undergoes spring assembly, inspection, and rejection of defective products before returning to the manual operation station. The slider that has been rotated only needs to be removed and an empty slider loaded onto the unloaded slider carrier.

[0008] Preferably, a plurality of positioning holes are provided on either side of the width of the material strip, spaced evenly along its length. The feeding mechanism comprises a displacement structure and a brake structure. The displacement structure comprises a feed lifting block raised and lowered by a cylinder, a feed translation block mounted on a feed lifting plate, a feed translation block mounted on a leveling block and driven by a cylinder, and feed positioning pins disposed along the height of the feed translation block. The feed positioning pins are configured to be raised and lowered, inserted into the positioning holes, and drive the material strip through translation. The brake structure comprises a brake positioning pin driven by a cylinder. The brake positioning pin is configured to be raised and lowered along the height direction and inserted into the positioning hole to limit the movement of the material strip. This structure is used to drive the material strip. After the feed positioning pin moves downward and inserts into the positioning hole, it moves horizontally, dragging the material strip. The cylinders of the displacement structure and the brake structure mutually repel each other. During the displacement structure's reset process, while the material strip is undergoing stamping separation, the brake structure drives the brake positioning pin to lock the material strip, maintaining the stability of the material strip and the stability of the stamping separation.

[0009] Preferably, the loading robot is a three-degree-of-freedom robot capable of moving in length, width, and height. The transfer mechanism includes a transfer cylinder and a transfer guide rail. The loading robot is fixedly connected to the telescopic end of the transfer cylinder and moves along the transfer guide rail between the stamping and separation mechanism and the loading mechanism. The loading robot removes the spring piece by moving in three degrees of freedom. Then, driven and guided by the transfer cylinder and transfer guide rail, which are similar to a gantry structure, it moves to the loading mechanism. The loading robot then moves again to move the spring piece to the loading mechanism.

[0010] Preferably, the loading mechanism includes a preset loading position and a loading cylinder. The preset loading position is aligned with a preset position of the slider carrier, and the loading cylinder's telescopic shaft is capable of pushing out the spring piece on the preset loading position. When the slider carrier moves to align with the preset loading position and stops, the telescopic end of the loading cylinder pushes out, pushing the spring piece into the slider on the slider carrier, completing the installation of the spring piece.

[0011] Preferably, the inspection and unloading mechanism includes an inspection camera that captures the assembled slider and an unloading robot that can move radially along the flow turntable and remove waste from the flow turntable to a recycling container. This structure allows for automatic quality inspection and quality control.

[0012] Preferably, the loading mechanism and the unloading robot are located at both ends of the flow turntable in the diameter direction.

[0013] Preferably, a manual material removal station is also included. Along the rotational direction of the flow tray, the slider carrier passes through the loading mechanism, the detection camera, the unloading robot, and the manual material removal station. This structure reduces the slider's residence time on the flow tray, facilitating manual judgment and loading of empty slider carriers and unloading of slider carriers with sliders.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0015] (1) The device is set around the flow turntable to save space;

[0016] (2) The loading mechanism, detection camera, unloading robot and manual material picking station are arranged in sequence along the rotation direction of the turntable, which simplifies the judgment process of manual loading and unloading, reduces the mental burden of the operator, and reduces the probability of error.

[0028] Example:

[0029] An assembly device for automobile handle slider assembly, Figure 1 As shown, it includes a material tray 1, a feeding mechanism 2, a stamping and separation mechanism 3, a loading robot 4, a transfer mechanism 5, a loading mechanism 6, a flow tray 7 and a detection and unloading mechanism.

[0030] The flow disk 7 is driven by a cam divider, and a plurality of slider carriers 11 are evenly spaced on the outer edge of the top surface of the flow disk 7. The setting of the cam divider is common knowledge in the art and is not the focus of the art. A stepper motor can also be used for control.

[0031] The system also includes a manual material removal station 10. Along the rotation direction of the flow tray 7, the slider carrier 11 passes through the loading mechanism 6, the detection camera 8, the unloading robot 9, and the manual material removal station 10 in sequence. This structure reduces the time the slider stays on the flow tray 7, facilitating manual judgment, loading empty slider carriers 11, and removing slider carriers 11 with sliders.

[0032] The material tray 1 provides the material strip to the stamping and separation mechanism 3 through the feeding mechanism 2. The stamping and separation mechanism 3 separates the shrapnel on the material strip. The loading robot 4 and the transfer mechanism 5 transfer the shrapnel to the loading mechanism 6. The loading mechanism 6 is used to push the shrapnel onto the slider on the slider carrier 11. The cam divider performs intermittent motion and the intermittent position of the slider carrier 11 corresponds to the loading mechanism 6 and the detection and unloading mechanism.

[0033] Peripheral devices are arranged around the flow tray 7 to save space. A cam divider is used to achieve intermittent motion of the flow tray 7, coordinating with production rhythm control. The device manually loads sliders onto the slider carrier 11. The slider carrier 11 rotates with the flow tray 7. During each rotation, the slider carrier 11 undergoes spring assembly, inspection, and rejection of defective products before returning to the manual operation station. The slider that has been rotated only needs to be removed and an empty slider is loaded onto the unloaded slider carrier 11.

[0034] Ginseng Figure 2 As shown, the material strip is pulled by a feed mechanism 2. Several positioning holes 21 are provided on either side of the strip's width, spaced evenly along its length. The feed mechanism 2 comprises a displacement mechanism and a brake mechanism. The displacement mechanism includes a feed lift block 22 raised and lowered by a cylinder, a feed translation block 23 mounted on a feed lift plate, a feed translation block 23 mounted on a leveling block and driven by a cylinder, and feed positioning pins 24 positioned vertically on the feed translation block 23. The feed positioning pins 24 are configured to be raised and lowered, inserted into the positioning holes 21, and drive the material strip through translation. The brake mechanism includes a brake positioning pin 25 driven by a cylinder. The brake positioning pin 25 is configured to be raised and lowered vertically and inserted into the positioning holes 21 to limit the movement of the material strip. This mechanism drives the material strip. The feed positioning pin 24 moves downward, inserts into the positioning holes 21, and then moves horizontally, dragging the material strip. The cylinders of the displacement mechanism and the brake mechanism mutually repel each other. When the displacement structure completes the movement and reset process, the material strip is being stamped and separated. The brake structure drives the brake positioning pins 25 to lock the material strip, thereby maintaining the stability of the material strip and the stability of the stamping and separation.

[0035] Ginseng Figure 3 As shown, the stamping separation mechanism 3 includes a movable upper die 31 and a fixed lower die 32. The lower die 32 has an opening. The material strip is stamped by the upper die 31 and the lower die 32, and the strip body and the spring sheet are separated, and the strip body falls downward through the opening.

[0036] Ginseng Figure 4 As shown, the loading robot 4 is a three-degree-of-freedom robot that can move in length, width, and height. The transfer mechanism 5 includes a transfer cylinder 51 and a transfer guide rail 52. The loading robot 4 is fixedly connected to the telescopic end of the transfer cylinder 51. The loading robot 4 moves along the transfer guide rail 52 between the stamping and separation mechanism 3 and the loading mechanism 6. The loading robot 4 removes the spring piece by moving in three degrees of freedom, and then moves to the loading mechanism 6 under the drive and guidance of the transfer cylinder 51 and the transfer guide rail 52, which are similar to the gantry structure. The loading robot 4 moves again to move the spring piece to the loading mechanism 6.

[0037] The loading mechanism 6 includes a preset loading position 61 and a loading cylinder 62. The preset loading position 61 is aligned with the preset position of the slider carrier 11. The telescopic shaft of the loading cylinder 62 can push out the spring on the preset loading position 61. When the slider carrier 11 moves to align with the preset loading position 61 and stops, the telescopic end of the loading cylinder 62 is pushed out, pushing the spring into the slider on the slider carrier 11, completing the installation of the spring.

[0038] In some embodiments, the preset loading position 61 is set on the loading block 63, and the loading block 63 is driven by a linear motor and also moves, thereby cooperating with the transfer mechanism 5 to transport the shrapnel.

[0039] The inspection and unloading mechanism includes an inspection camera 8 and an unloading robot 9. The inspection camera 8 captures the assembled slider. The unloading robot moves radially along the flow tray 7 and removes waste from the flow tray 7 to a recycling container 91. This structure enables automated quality inspection and quality control. The loading mechanism 6 and unloading robot 9 are located at both ends of the flow tray 7 in the radial direction.

[0040] The above-described embodiments are only preferred solutions of the present invention and do not limit the present invention in any form. Other variations and modifications are possible without exceeding the technical solutions described in the claims.
