Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of connector production equipment, in particular to a connector feeding and changing mechanism. Background Art

[0002] In fields such as electronic equipment manufacturing and automated assembly, precise connector feeding and rapid connector changeover are critical factors influencing production efficiency. With the diversification of product models, the production process often requires frequent switching between connectors of different specifications. Traditional feeding mechanisms often suffer from cumbersome adjustment steps, insufficient positioning accuracy, time-consuming connector changeovers, and complex procedures, which seriously restrict the flexibility and efficiency of the production line.

[0003] In existing technologies, connector feed mechanisms often use independent adjustment components to achieve positional adaptation, such as manually adjusting multiple bolts or sliders to change the position of a stopper. This design is not only complex to operate but also relies on operator experience, making it prone to positioning errors that can lead to misaligned or stuck feeds. Furthermore, traditional mechanisms lack efficient material detection mechanisms, making it difficult to monitor feed status in real time. This can easily lead to missed detections or misjudgments, resulting in production interruptions.

[0004] Due to the low frequency of mold changes, it is expensive to control the mold changing mechanism through programs and other automated methods, and the operating steps such as inputting parameters are cumbersome. Workers need to be trained before they can take up their posts, which increases labor and training costs.

[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need to provide an improved technical solution to solve the above technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a connector feeding and changing mechanism with a simple structure and easy operation in order to solve the above-mentioned technical problems.

[0007] In view of this, the present invention provides a connector feeding and changing mechanism, comprising:

[0008] Mounting bracket;

[0009] The adjusting slide is slidably arranged on the mounting bracket and includes:

[0010] A plurality of positioning grooves are provided on the surface of the adjusting slide;

Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0040] Example 1:

[0041] This embodiment provides a connector feeding and changing mechanism, comprising:

[0042] Mounting bracket 1;

[0043] The adjusting slide 2 is slidably arranged on the mounting bracket 1 and includes:

[0047] The operating rod 6 is fixedly connected to the fixed sliding part 5.

[0048] This embodiment is used for a mold changing mechanism in a feeding mechanism in connector production equipment.

[0049] A guide rail assembly is provided on the mounting bracket 1, the adjusting slide 2 is fixedly connected to the guide rail component, and the sliding direction of the guide rail component is consistent with the feeding direction of the connector feeding mechanism, and a plurality of positioning grooves 3 with different gears are provided on the end face of the adjusting slide 2 in the opposite direction of the feeding trough of the connector feeding mechanism, each positioning groove 3 corresponds to one or more types of connectors, and the position corresponding to each positioning groove 3 on the surface of the adjusting slide 2 is engraved with a number or a symbol representing the model of the connector; a limiting rod 4 is provided on the adjusting slide 2 and is translated synchronously with the adjusting slide 2, one end of the limiting rod 4 is provided below the feeding trough, and a feeding stop is provided on the end of the limiting rod 4 The stop rod passes through the slot at the bottom of the feed trough, and the length of the slot is consistent with the adjustment length of the limit rod 4. The stop rod can block the connector housing in the feed trough; the fixed slide 5 is slidably connected to the mounting bracket 1. The specific structure can adopt a guide rail assembly structure, or other types of linear guide structures can be used; a positioning portion that is plugged into and cooperates with the positioning slot 3 is provided on the end face opposite to the fixed slide 5 and the adjusting slide 2. The positioning portion and the positioning slot 3 are selected to have a triangular cross-section. Compared with the rod insertion hole or the long strip structure, it is more convenient for the positioning portion to cooperate with the positioning slot 3 for positioning; the operating rod 6 is arranged on the fixed slide 5, and the fixed slide 5 can be slid by manually operating the operating rod 6.

[0050] Working principle:

[0051] Each positioning slot 3 represents one or more models, and the expression of numbers or symbols allows workers to more intuitively understand which type of connector this positioning slot 3 represents. When the model needs to be changed, the worker uses the operating rod 6 to disengage the positioning part from the positioning slot 3, and then changes the position of the limit rod 4 by sliding the adjustment slide 2, thereby controlling the number of connector shells in the feeding trough. The structure is simple, the operation is simple, the operation threshold is greatly reduced, and the function is stable and not prone to failure.

[0052] Example 2:

[0053] This embodiment provides a connector feeding and changing mechanism, which, in addition to the technical solutions of the above embodiments, also has the following technical features.

[0054] Also includes:

[0055] A first limit block 7 is provided on the mounting bracket 1 on the side of the fixed slide 5 opposite to the adjusting slide 2;

[0056] The first reset member 9 is provided between the first limiting block 7 and the fixed sliding portion 5 .

[0057] The first limit block 7 is arranged on the side of the fixed slide 5 opposite to the adjusting slide 2 and is fixedly connected to the mounting bracket 1. The first reset member 9 adopts two springs, and countersunk holes for inserting springs are provided on the fixed slide 5 and the first limit block 7. The expansion force between the two springs between the first limit block 7 and the fixed slide 5 makes the fixed slide 5 contact the adjusting slide 2, helping the positioning part to cooperate with the positioning groove 3 more securely.

[0058] Example 3:

[0059] This embodiment provides a connector feeding and changing mechanism, which, in addition to the technical solutions of the above embodiments, also has the following technical features.

[0060] The middle position of the limiting rod 4 is hinged on the adjusting slide 2;

[0061] Also includes:

[0062] The optical fiber sensor 8, one end of the limiting rod 4 is placed in the detection area of ​​the optical fiber sensor 8;

[0063] One end of the second reset member 10 is fixed to the adjusting slide 2 , and the other end is fixedly connected to the limiting rod 4 .

[0064] It should be noted that the optical fiber sensor 8 includes a transmitter and a receiver, and the detection area is between the transmitter and the receiver; a mounting seat is provided on the end face of the adjusting slide 2, and a through groove is provided in the mounting seat, and the limit rod 4 is set in the through groove and the middle position of the limit rod 4 is rotatably connected to the mounting seat through a hinge shaft, and the end of the limit rod 4 close to the adjusting slide 2 is set in the detection area of ​​the optical fiber sensor 8, so that the optical fiber sensor 8 can detect whether there is an unlimited rod 4; the second reset member 10 is set between the adjusting slide 2 and the limit rod 4, and the second limit member is used to make one end of the limit rod 4 return to the optical fiber sensor 8 when the limit rod 4 is not subjected to force, and the second reset member 10 is also a spring.

[0065] It should be noted that the feed trough corresponding to this embodiment can be raised and lowered in multiple stages, which is convenient for segmented counting. The horizontal plane of the feed trough section in front of the feed trough (based on the feeding direction, the earlier one is the front) is lower than the horizontal plane of the feed trough section behind the feed trough. The feed trough is raised or lowered by the lifting mechanism to facilitate the next step, and the feed trough is provided with two layers. When the upper layer is aligned with the rear feed trough section, the lower layer is aligned with the front feed trough section to increase efficiency.

[0066] Working principle:

[0067] When the number of connector shells in the feed trough reaches a certain level, the connector shells come into conflict with the gear lever on the limit rod 4, and the connector shells push one end of the limit rod 4 to rotate the limit rod 4. The limit rod 4 disengages from the detection area at one end of the optical fiber sensor 8, and the optical fiber sensor 8 sends a signal to the lifting mechanism, indicating that the specified number has been reached, thereby realizing automatic counting.

The adjustable direction of the adjusting block 11 is consistent with the compression direction of the second reset member 10.

[0072] Blind holes for installing the second reset member 10 are provided on the adjusting block 11 and the limiting rod 4. The second reset member 10 is a spring.

[0073] The adjusting block 11 can be fixed on the adjusting slide 2 or on the mounting seat. The adjusting block 11 is fixed to the mounting seat by bolts. When the rebound force of the second reset member 10 needs to be adjusted, the distance between the adjusting block 11 and the limit rod 4 is shortened or lengthened, so that the anti-rotation force of the limit rod 4 is increased or decreased, thereby adjusting the sensitivity of the interference between the limit rod 4 and the connecting block.

[0074] Example 5:

[0075] This embodiment provides a connector feeding and changing mechanism, which, in addition to the technical solutions of the above embodiments, also has the following technical features.

The operating rod 6 can be screwed with the sliding rod 13 for easy disassembly, and a limiting groove 14 is provided on the lower end surface of the sliding rod 13, and a positioning pin 15 is provided. It is slightly arranged on the L-shaped bracket 12, and one end is placed in the limiting groove 14, and the width of the limiting groove 14 is greater than the width of the positioning pin 15. The limiting groove 14 is used to prevent the sliding rod 13 from falling out of the L-shaped bracket 12, and the width of the limiting groove 14 is greater than the width of the positioning pin 15, which can prevent the sliding insertion and falling out without affecting the sliding of the sliding rod 13.

[0082] The positioning pin rod 15 is radially slidably disposed on the L-shaped bracket 12 , and one end thereof can be released from the limiting groove 14 .
