[0040] The embodiments of this utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0041] like Figures 1-12 As shown, this utility model discloses an automated assembly equipment for photographic equipment rods, used to apply glue to the corresponding ends of the tubes 100 for assembly and connection of the connecting threaded sleeves 110. It includes a frame, on which, along the photographic equipment rod assembly process, are arranged a tube feeding station, a tube gluing station, a threaded sleeve supply and assembly station, and a tube unloading station. The frame is also provided with a synchronous transport mechanism 8 for simultaneously transporting the tubes 100 from the tube feeding station, the tube gluing station, and the threaded sleeve supply and assembly station to the corresponding next station.
[0042] The pipe fitting feeding and supply station is equipped with a pipe fitting feeding and supply mechanism 1 for storing and conveying pipe fittings 100;
[0043] The pipe fitting adhesive application station is equipped with a pipe fitting rotation positioning device 2 for clamping and positioning the pipe fitting 100 and for causing the pipe fitting 100 to rotate accordingly, and a pipe fitting adhesive application mechanism 3 for applying adhesive to the corresponding ends of the pipe fitting 100 on the pipe fitting rotation positioning device 2.
[0044] The threaded sleeve supply assembly station is provided with a pipe fitting rotation positioning mechanism 4 for clamping and positioning the pipe fitting 100 and for causing the pipe fitting 100 to rotate accordingly, a threaded sleeve supply mechanism 5 for storing and conveying the threaded sleeve 110, and a threaded sleeve flipping assembly mechanism 6 for flipping the threaded sleeve 110 of the threaded sleeve supply mechanism 5 to a preset position and then assembling it on the corresponding end of the pipe fitting 100 on the pipe fitting rotation positioning mechanism 4.
[0045] The pipe fitting unloading station is equipped with a pipe fitting storage mechanism 7 for receiving pipe fittings 100 that have been assembled with threaded sleeves 110. This utility model integrates the pipe fitting feeding mechanism, pipe fitting rotation positioning device, pipe fitting gluing mechanism, threaded sleeve supply mechanism, and threaded sleeve flipping assembly mechanism onto a single frame, which can realize automated gluing operation of pipe fittings and assembly of threaded sleeves onto the corresponding ends of pipe fittings. It has the characteristics of high degree of automation, high assembly efficiency, reduced manual labor intensity, and good product quality after assembly.
[0046] like Figures 1-5As shown, the pipe fitting feeding and supply mechanism 1 includes a pipe fitting storage bin 11 for storing a number of pipe fittings 100 and a pipe fitting temporary storage bin 13 for storing a single pipe fitting 100, which is provided on the frame. A pipe fitting pushing mechanism 12 is provided on the frame and between the pipe fitting storage bin 11 and the pipe fitting temporary storage bin 13 for conveying the pipe fittings 100 in the pipe fitting storage bin 11 to the pipe fitting temporary storage bin 13 for temporary storage. A pipe fitting positioning mechanism 14 is provided on the frame and on the side of the pipe fitting temporary storage bin 13 for positioning the pipe fittings 100 in the pipe fitting temporary storage bin 13. The pipe fitting temporary storage bin 13 is located above the pipe fitting storage bin 11; the pipe fitting pushing mechanism 12 includes a pipe fitting pushing plate 122 that can slide along the Z-axis of the frame to push a single pipe fitting 100 of the pipe fitting storage bin 11 toward the pipe fitting temporary storage bin 13. The upper end of the pipe fitting pushing plate 122 is inclined toward the pipe fitting temporary storage bin 13. The frame is provided with a pushing plate driving member 121 for driving the pipe fitting pushing plate 122 to slide along the Z-axis of the frame. The pipe fitting positioning mechanism 14 includes a pipe fitting positioning part 141 disposed on one side wall of the pipe fitting temporary storage bin 13 and used for positioning and engaging with one end of the pipe fitting 100, and a pipe fitting positioning seat 142 movable relative to the pipe fitting temporary storage bin 13 and used for engaging with the other end of the pipe fitting 100. The frame is provided with a positioning seat driving member 143 for driving the pipe fitting positioning seat 142 and the pipe fitting positioning part 141 to move and push one end of the pipe fitting 100 to engage with the pipe fitting positioning part 141. During operation, the push plate drive 121 drives the two pipe push plates 122 to move upward along the Z-axis of the frame. This causes the upper end of the pipe push plate 122 to push the single pipe 100 in the pipe storage bin 11 upward, thereby causing the single pipe 100 to roll into the pipe temporary storage bin 13. Then, the positioning seat drive 143 drives the pipe positioning seat 142 to push one end of the pipe 100, causing the pipe 100 to move towards the pipe positioning part 141 until the other end of the pipe 100 abuts against the pipe positioning part 141, thus positioning the pipe 100. This facilitates the accurate and orderly handling by the subsequent synchronous conveying mechanism and the subsequent gluing and assembly operations. In this embodiment, the push plate drive 121 and the positioning seat drive 143 can be a drive cylinder or a rodless cylinder, etc.
[0047] like Figure 4 , 5 As shown, the bottom of the pipe storage bin 11 is inclined, and the pipe pushing mechanism 12 is located at the low position of the bottom of the pipe storage bin 11.
[0048] like Figures 1-3As shown in Figure 10, in order to better position the pipe fittings and drive them to rotate, the pipe fitting rotation positioning device 2 includes a rotation positioning mounting frame 21 mounted on the frame. The rotation positioning mounting frame 21 is rotatably provided with at least two spaced rotation positioning shafts 22. A placement positioning part 221 for placing and positioning the pipe fitting 100 is formed between the two rotation positioning shafts 22. The rotation positioning mounting frame 21 is provided with a positioning shaft drive 23 for driving at least one rotation positioning shaft 22 to rotate accordingly. The pipe fitting rotation positioning device 2 also includes a positioning sliding connecting plate 24 that can move along the Z-axis of the frame and is located above the two rotation positioning shafts 22. A sliding connecting plate drive 25 for driving the positioning sliding connecting plate 24 to move accordingly is provided between the positioning sliding connecting plate 24 and the rotation positioning mounting frame 21. A positioning pressing shaft 241 for pressing the pipe fitting 100 on the placement positioning part 221 is rotatably provided at the lower end of the positioning sliding connecting plate 24. When the synchronous conveying mechanism moves the pipe fittings on the pipe fitting storage bin 13 to the placement and positioning part 221 for positioning, the sliding connecting plate drive 25 drives the positioning sliding connecting plate 24 to move the positioning top pressure shaft 241 along the Z-axis of the frame, so that the positioning top pressure shaft 241 presses against the pipe fitting 100 on the placement and positioning part 221. Then, the positioning shaft drive 23 drives the corresponding rotation of the positioning shaft 22, which in turn causes the pipe fitting 100 to rotate accordingly. The pipe fitting glue application mechanism 3 works to apply glue to the end of the pipe fitting 100 to be glued, and the glue is applied evenly.
[0049] In this utility model, the positioning shaft drive component 23 is a drive motor. The motor shaft of the drive motor and the corresponding ends of the rotating positioning shaft 22 are provided with synchronous pulleys. The two synchronous pulleys are connected by a synchronous belt, resulting in efficient and stable transmission.
[0050] To prevent the rotating positioning shaft 22 and the positioning pressure shaft 241 from damaging the surface of the pipe fitting, protective bushings made of soft materials, such as silicone, rubber, and plastic, are respectively fitted on the rotating positioning shaft 22 and the positioning pressure shaft 241.
[0051] like Figures 1-3 As shown in Figures 1 and 10, the structure of the pipe fitting rotation positioning mechanism 4 in this utility model is the same as that of the pipe fitting rotation positioning device 2, and will not be described here.
[0052] like Figures 1-3 As shown in Figure 9, the frame or pipe fitting adhesive coating mechanism 3 is equipped with an adhesive heating device 31 for preheating the adhesive on the pipe fitting adhesive coating mechanism 3. In this embodiment, the adhesive heating device 31 can be a ceramic heating element. When the ambient temperature is lower than a preset value, the ceramic heating element starts to work to preheat the adhesive, preventing the adhesive from solidifying and affecting the coating process.
[0053] like Figures 1-3As shown in Figures 6 and 7, in order to better transport and position the threaded sleeves and facilitate subsequent assembly operations, the threaded sleeve supply mechanism 5 includes a threaded sleeve storage bin 51 on the frame for storing a number of threaded sleeves 110 and a linear vibrator 53 on the frame and located next to the threaded sleeve storage bin 51. The linear vibrator 53 is provided with a threaded sleeve transport passage 531 for transporting the threaded sleeves 110 in an orderly row. A threaded sleeve pushing mechanism 52 is provided on the frame and between the threaded sleeve storage bin 51 and the threaded sleeve transport passage 531 for pushing the threaded sleeves 110 in the threaded sleeve storage bin 51 to the threaded sleeve transport passage 531. A threaded sleeve temporary storage and positioning device 54 for positioning a single threaded sleeve 110 is provided on the frame and at the output port of the threaded sleeve transport passage 531. The threaded sleeve flipping assembly mechanism 6 is located between the threaded sleeve temporary storage and positioning device 54 and the pipe fitting rotation positioning mechanism 4. In this embodiment, the structure of the screw sleeve pushing mechanism 52 is the same as that of the pipe fitting pushing mechanism 12, and will not be described again here.
[0054] like Figure 6 , 7 As shown, the threaded sleeve temporary storage and positioning device 54 includes a threaded sleeve temporary storage slide 542 slidably disposed at the output port position of the threaded sleeve conveying channel 531. The threaded sleeve temporary storage slide 542 is provided with a threaded sleeve positioning post 543 for receiving the threaded sleeve 110 from the output port of the threaded sleeve conveying channel 531 and positioning the threaded sleeve 110. The frame is provided with a temporary storage slide driving member 541 for driving the threaded sleeve temporary storage slide 542 to slide accordingly so that the threaded sleeve positioning post 543 is aligned or misaligned with the output port of the threaded sleeve conveying channel 531. When the threaded sleeve 110 is positioned by the threaded sleeve positioning post 543, the temporary storage slide drive 541 drives the threaded sleeve temporary storage slide 542 to slide the threaded sleeve positioning post 543 accordingly. This causes the threaded sleeve positioning post 543 to be misaligned with the output port of the threaded sleeve conveying channel 531, and the output port of the threaded sleeve conveying channel 531 to be blocked by the corresponding side wall of the threaded sleeve temporary storage slide 542. At this moment, the central axis of the threaded sleeve 110 is parallel to the Z-axis of the frame. Subsequently, it needs to be rotated 90° by the threaded sleeve flipping assembly mechanism so that the central axis of the threaded sleeve 110 is parallel to the X or Y axis of the frame, so as to facilitate the assembly of the corresponding end of the pipe fitting 100 on the pipe fitting rotation positioning mechanism 4. In some embodiments, the threaded sleeve temporary storage slide 542 may also have a threaded sleeve positioning cavity for receiving the threaded sleeve 110 from the output port of the threaded sleeve conveying channel 531 for insertion and positioning of the threaded sleeve 110, which is not shown in the figure.
[0055] like Figure 6 , 7As shown, in order to ensure that the threaded sleeve temporary storage and positioning device 54 can only receive a single threaded sleeve at a time, the frame is provided with a threaded sleeve blocking assembly 55 for blocking the threaded sleeve 110 from being conveyed to the threaded sleeve temporary storage and positioning device 54 through the threaded sleeve conveying channel 531. The threaded sleeve blocking assembly 55 includes a threaded sleeve blocking block 552 that can move relative to the threaded sleeve conveying channel 531. The frame is provided with a blocking block driving member 551 for driving the threaded sleeve blocking block 552 to move accordingly.
[0056] like Figures 1-3 As shown in Figure 8, for accurate and efficient flipping assembly, the screw sleeve flipping assembly mechanism 6 includes an assembly mounting frame 61 mounted on the frame. The assembly mounting frame 61 is provided with an assembly sliding plate 63 that can slide along the Z-axis of the frame. A sliding plate drive assembly 62 for driving the assembly sliding plate 63 to slide is provided between the assembly sliding plate 63 and the assembly mounting frame 61. An assembly sliding seat 65 that can slide along the X-axis or Y-axis of the frame is provided on the assembly sliding plate 63. A sliding seat drive member 64 for driving the assembly sliding seat 65 to slide is provided between the assembly sliding seat 65 and the assembly sliding plate 63. An assembly rotary cylinder 66 is provided on the assembly sliding seat 65. An assembly clamping cylinder 67 is eccentrically provided at the rotating end of the assembly rotary cylinder 66. The driving end of the assembly clamping cylinder 67 is correspondingly provided with clamping fingers that can cooperate with each other to clamp the screw sleeve 110. When the assembly clamping cylinder 67 clamps the threaded sleeve 110 on the threaded sleeve temporary positioning device 54 with several clamping fingers, the sliding plate drive assembly 62 drives the assembly sliding plate 63 to move the assembly clamping cylinder 67 upward along the Z-axis of the frame. Then, the assembly rotation cylinder 66 drives the assembly clamping cylinder 67 to rotate the threaded sleeve 110 by 90°, so that the corresponding port of the threaded sleeve 110 is aligned with the corresponding end of the pipe fitting 100 located on the pipe fitting rotation positioning mechanism 4. Then, the sliding seat drive assembly 64 drives the assembly sliding seat 65 to move the threaded sleeve 110 towards the side of the pipe fitting rotation positioning mechanism 4 until the port of the threaded sleeve 110 is engaged with the corresponding end of the pipe fitting 100. After that, the pipe fitting rotation positioning mechanism 4 drives the pipe fitting 100 to rotate so that the threaded sleeve 110 is threadedly connected to the corresponding end of the pipe fitting 100, thus completing the assembly operation.
[0057] In this utility model, the synchronous transport mechanism 8 is configured to transport the pipes 100 on the pipe storage bin 13, the pipe rotation positioning device 2 and the pipe rotation positioning mechanism 4 to the next work station.
[0058] like Figure 11As shown, the synchronous conveying mechanism 8 includes a conveying mounting frame mounted on the frame. The conveying mounting frame has a conveying sliding seat that can slide along the X-axis of the frame. A conveying drive cylinder is provided between the conveying sliding seat and the conveying mounting frame to drive the conveying sliding seat to slide accordingly. The conveying sliding seat has a conveying sliding plate that can slide along the Z-axis of the frame. A conveying drive component is provided between the conveying sliding plate and the conveying sliding seat to drive the conveying sliding plate to slide accordingly. The conveying sliding plate has three sets of conveying clamping cylinders spaced apart along the X-axis of the frame. The first set of conveying clamping cylinders is used to convey the pipes on the pipe storage bin 13 to the pipe rotation positioning device 2; the second set of conveying clamping cylinders is used to convey the pipes on the pipe rotation positioning device 2 to the pipe rotation positioning mechanism 4; and the third set of conveying clamping cylinders is used to convey the pipes from the pipe rotation positioning mechanism 4 to the pipe storage mechanism 7.
