[0025] During use, the vibrating plate transports the connecting piece to the material port on the material receiving table, and the telescopic cylinder adjusts the material receiving table to move to the bottom of the transfer mechanism 2. The combined cylinder combines two linear motion cylinders in different directions. The lateral horizontal movement and lifting position of the vacuum suction head can be adjusted by the combined cylinder. The vacuum suction head is adjusted by the combined cylinder to suck the connecting piece on the material receiving table and transfer the connecting piece to the bracket of the turntable. A bracket is pre-placed on the turntable, and rivet holes are reserved on the surface of the connecting piece and the bracket. The connecting piece is placed on the bracket, and the rivet holes on the connecting piece correspond to the rivet holes of the bracket when placed.
[0026] like Figure 2 As shown, the device also includes a nail feeding machine, a material transfer mechanism A3, a storage platform 4 and a material transfer mechanism B7. The nail feeding machine is used to transport rivets. The material transfer mechanism A3 is used to obtain rivets and send them to the storage platform 4. The material transfer mechanism B7 is used to obtain rivets and send them to the rivet holes of the connecting piece and the bracket on the turntable 5.
[0027] During use, the nail feeding machine sends the rivet to the exit. A recess suitable for the rivet is provided on the storage table 4. The material moving mechanism A3 sends the rivet to the recess of the storage table 4. The material moving mechanism B7 shifts the position of the rivet in the recess so that the rivet passes through the rivet holes of the connecting plate and the bracket at the same time.
[0028] like Figure 2 As shown, the material transfer mechanism A3 includes a combined cylinder and a vacuum suction head. The vacuum suction head is used to suck rivets, and the combined cylinder is used to adjust the vacuum suction head to place the sucked rivets on the storage table 4;
[0029] When in use, the combined cylinder combines two linear motion cylinders in different directions. The lateral horizontal movement and lifting position of the vacuum suction head can be adjusted through the combined cylinder. The vacuum suction head is moved to the outlet of the nail feeder by the combined cylinder, and the vacuum suction head descends to absorb the rivet, and then resets the position. The vacuum suction head is adjusted to descend again through the combined cylinder, and the rivet is placed on the storage table 4 below the vacuum suction head.
[0030] like Figure 4 As shown, the material moving mechanism B7 includes a combined cylinder and a vacuum suction head. The position of the vacuum suction head is adjusted by the combined cylinder to move the obtained rivets into the rivet holes of the connecting piece and the bracket;
[0031] When in use, the combined cylinder combines two linear motion cylinders in different directions. The combined cylinder can adjust the horizontal movement and lifting position of the vacuum suction head. After the vacuum suction head absorbs the rivet, the rivet is placed in the rivet hole of the connecting plate and the bracket.
[0032] like Figure 2 As shown, the device further includes a riveting machine 8, which is used to perform riveting processing on the rivets through a riveting head, and complete the installation of the connecting piece and the bracket through the riveting processing of the rivets.
[0033] like Figure 2 and 5 As shown, the device also includes a cleaning mechanism 6, which is arranged on the frame and located on one side of the turntable 5. The cleaning mechanism 6 includes a combined cylinder and a vacuum suction head. The combined cylinder is used to adjust the lifting and horizontal movement of the vacuum suction head, and the vacuum suction head is used to absorb the debris on the turntable 5.
[0034] like Figure 3As shown, two workstations 104 are provided on the turntable 5, each of which is provided with an opening for placing a bracket, and each of which is provided with a corresponding limiting portion 103, which is used to stabilize the bracket. The limiting portion 103 is rotatably connected to the workstation 104 through a rotating shaft 102, and a pushing mechanism 101 is correspondingly provided on one side of the limiting portion 103. The pushing mechanism 101 is provided on the frame, and is used to push the limiting portion 103 to swing so that one end of the limiting portion 103 is away from the bracket. The pushing mechanism 101 includes a telescopic cylinder and a transmission rod, and the telescopic transmission rod is adjusted by the telescopic cylinder.
[0035] When in use, the bracket is placed in the opening of the work station 104, and one end of the bracket is located between the work station 104 and the limit part 103. The limit part 103 can be used to prevent the end of the bracket from tilting. When the riveting operation of the rivet is completed, the telescopic cylinder can adjust the transmission rod to move toward the limit part 103, and the rotating shaft 102 is set in the middle position of the limit part 103. When the transmission rod applies a thrust to the bottom of the limit part 103, the upper end part of the limit part 103 moves in the direction away from the bracket, and the upper end part of the limit part 103 moves away from the top of the bracket. At this time, the bracket on the work station 104 can be smoothly taken out through the unloading clamp of the production line. When the transmission rod is retracted, the limit part 103 is reset.
[0036] When the device is in use, the pushing mechanism 101 extends and applies force to the bottom of the limiting part 103, so that the upper end of the limiting part 103 moves away from the work station 104, making it convenient for the clamp to place the bracket on the tray on the work station 104 of the turntable 5. Then the pushing mechanism 101 is reset, and the upper end of the limiting part 103 is reset above the work station 104. The vibrating disk starts to convey the connecting piece to the feeding table 1, and the feeding table 1 transfers the connecting piece to the bottom of the transfer mechanism 2. The transfer mechanism 2 transfers the connecting piece to the bracket on the feeding table 1. The rivet holes on the connecting piece correspond to the rivet holes on the bracket. Then the turntable 5 rotates, and the work station 104 carrying the bracket and the connecting piece moves to the next position point, and the initial position point The workstation 104 can continue to execute the above-mentioned workflow, and the workstation 104 at the next position point performs the position transfer and riveting processing of the rivets. Specifically, the rivet feeding machine transports the rivets, and the material transfer mechanism A3 sends the rivets to the storage table 4. The rivet is then transferred by the material transfer mechanism B7 so that the rivets pass through the rivet holes of the connecting plate and the bracket at the same time. At this time, the riveting machine 8 presses down to perform the riveting operation on the rivets. After completion, the riveting machine 8 resets, and the vacuum suction head of the cleaning mechanism 6 extends to the top of the product to suck away the waste generated during riveting. Then the cleaning mechanism 6 resets, and the corresponding pushing mechanism 101 extends to apply force to the bottom of the limit part 103, so that the clamping claws can put the riveted product back on the pallet.
