[0029] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5 As shown, it shows the specific structure of the preferred embodiment of the present utility model, which is an inductive pin cutting and transporting machine.

[0030] Among them, the first clamping block 23 presses the inductor 60 to prevent the inductor 60 from loosening and ensure cutting accuracy; the pin 61 of the inductor 60 extends from the pin channel 13 into the cutting groove 14, and the pin channel 13 can prevent the pin 61 from being deformed during cutting; the cutter 110 moves in the cutting groove 14 to ensure that the pin 61 is completely cut off.

[0031] The present application provides an inductor pin cutting and handling machine, comprising a pin cutting device 10, a handling robot 30, a conveying device 40, and a positioning device 20; the pin cutting device 10 comprises an inductor seat 11 and a cutter 110, and the inductor seat 11 is provided with an inductor slot 12 and a cutter slot 14; a pin channel 13 is provided between the inductor slot 12 and the cutter slot 14 to connect; the inductor 60 is placed in the inductor slot 12; the positioning device 20 is arranged on the side of the pin cutting device 10; the first pressing block 23 of the positioning device 20 presses the inductor 60, and the pin of the inductor 60 extends into the cutter slot 14; the cutter 110 moves in the cutter slot 14 and cuts off the pin; the handling robot 30 is arranged on the side of the pin cutting device 10; the conveying device 40 is arranged on the side of the pin cutting device 10; the conveying device 40 comprises a conveying track 41, and a conveying jig 50 arranged on the conveying track 41; the handling robot 30 transfers the inductor 60 in the inductor slot 12 to the conveying jig 50. The pin channel 13 is adapted to the size of the pin, and the pin channel 13 can shape and limit the pin to prevent it from being deformed during cutting.

[0032] In this embodiment, the pin cutting device 10 is used to trim the leads; the positioning device 20 is used to fix the inductor during cutting, preventing displacement and ensuring cutting accuracy; and the handling robot 30 is used to transfer the cut inductor 60 to the conveyor device 40, improving transfer efficiency. The conveyor device 40 can be flanked by various devices for completing subsequent processes, such as soldering equipment and lead shaping and bending equipment. As can be seen, the conveyor device 40 helps improve layout flexibility and enhance production efficiency.

[0033] The pin cutting process is as follows: 1. The vibrating material rail transports the inductor 60 to the side of the inductor seat 11. The handling robot 30 loads the inductor 60 into the inductor slot 12. The first pressing block 23 of the positioning device 20 presses the inductor 60 against the inductor slot 12. 2. The pins of the inductor 60 extend from the pin channel 13 into the cutting groove 14. 3. The second cylinder 111 drives the cutter 110 to move, and the excess pins in the cutting groove 14 are removed. 4. After the inductor 60 pins are cut, the handling robot 30 transfers the cut inductor 60 to the conveying jig 50. This seamless process helps improve production efficiency.

[0034] Preferably, a discharge port 16 is provided at the end of the cutting groove 14, and a recycling box 18 is provided below the discharge port 16. The waste material cut by the pin will be pushed to the discharge port 16 by the cutter 110 and then fall into the recycling box 18. This structure for recycling waste material is very clever.

[0035] Preferably, the positioning device 20 further includes a first cylinder 21 and a first mounting bracket 22. The first mounting bracket 22 is disposed at the output end of the first cylinder 21, and a first pressing block 23 is disposed on the first mounting bracket 22. The first cylinder 21 drives the first mounting bracket 22 to rotate and elevate. The output end of the first cylinder 21 is retractable and rotatable. The operation of the first cylinder 21 causes the first mounting bracket 22 to rotate, and the first pressing block 23 on the first mounting bracket 22 then presses against the inductor 60. This design provides a retractable position while also securing the inductor 60, resulting in a clever structure.

[0036] Preferably, a cover plate 15 is provided on the cutting groove 14, and a sensor 17 for sensing the material is provided on the inductor base 11. The cover plate 15 prevents the cutter 110 from deviating and ensures the movement accuracy of the cutter 110. The sensor 17 is preferably a photoelectric sensor 17 that can determine whether material is present, facilitating subsequent processing.

[0037] Preferably, the conveying jig 50 includes a first clamp 51, a first clamp seat 52, a positioning fork 53, and a positioning wheel 55. The first clamp 51 and the positioning fork 53 are mounted on the first clamp seat 52, and the positioning wheel 55 can be locked to the positioning fork 53. The positioning wheel 55 is driven up and down by a third cylinder 54. The positioning wheel 55 is locked to the positioning fork 53, thus securing the entire conveying jig 50 and facilitating subsequent processing of the inductor 60 on the first clamp 51. The combination of the positioning fork 53 and the positioning wheel 55 reduces the difficulty of positioning and makes the process more efficient.

[0038] Preferably, the clamping heads 57 of the first clamp 51 are provided with spring posts 56, and the clamping structure between the two clamping heads 57 is larger inside and smaller outside. The first clamp 51 is closed together by the elastic force of the spring posts 56. The larger inside and smaller outside clamping structure can fully adapt to the structural shape of the inductor 60 and prevent the inductor 60 from loosening.

[0039] Preferably, the conveying device 40 also includes a synchronous wheel 42 and a belt 43 mounted on the synchronous wheel 42. The conveying jig 50 is connected to the belt 43, and the belt 43 drives the conveying jig 50 to move on the annular conveying track 41. The conveying track 41 in this embodiment is annular, which helps to set various subsequent devices on the periphery of the conveying track 41 to improve processing efficiency. The synchronous wheel 42 is driven by a servo motor. The belt 43 drives the conveying jig 50 to move on the conveying track 41.

[0040] Preferably, the handling robot 30 includes an X-module 31, a Y-module 32, a Z-module 33, and a transfer fixture 34. The Y-module 32 is mounted on the X-module 31, the Z-module 33 is mounted on the Y-module 32, and the transfer fixture 34 is mounted on the Z-module 33. The coordination of the X-module 31, the Y-module 32, and the Z-module 33 allows the transfer fixture 34 to move in the X, Y, and Z directions, providing great flexibility.

[0041] Preferably, a clearance opening 19 is provided on the wall of the inductor slot 12, and the transfer fixture 34 clamps the inductor 60 at the clearance opening 19. The design of the clearance opening 19 facilitates the transfer fixture 34 to clamp the inductor 60 with good accuracy.

[0042] In summary, the key point of the design of the present invention is that the cutting device 10, the handling robot 30, the conveying device 40, and the positioning device 20 work together to achieve the cutting, positioning, transfer, and conveying processes of the inductor 60. The process is closely connected, which helps to improve the flexibility of the layout and improve the efficiency of production. The cutter 110 and the cutter groove 14 can completely cut the pins, and the pin channel 13 can prevent the pins from deforming.
