Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of wiring terminals, and more particularly to an automatic copper inserting machine for wiring terminals. Background Art

[0002] During the production of some terminal blocks, the insulating shell is first manually placed on the copper insertion machine. The copper piece is then fed into the copper insertion machine via a vibrating plate for standby use. The copper piece transported by the vibrating plate is then inserted into the insulating shell by the copper insertion machine, completing the automatic copper insertion of the terminal block. Currently, most copper insertion machines are configured as a single workstation, requiring the installation of the insulating shell, the insertion of the copper piece, and the removal of the insulating shell to be performed sequentially, resulting in a certain amount of waiting time and low production efficiency. In addition, to ensure that the insulating shell is fixed during the copper insertion process, most current copper insertion machines will install a clamping mechanism on one side of the workstation. When the clamping mechanism is manually controlled, the worker's labor intensity and production time are increased. When the clamping mechanism is automatically controlled, it is very likely that the clamping mechanism will automatically clamp the worker while the insulating shell is being placed, causing the worker's hand injury and resulting in a safety accident.
