Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of button assembly equipment, and in particular to a button waterproof guide post assembly equipment. Background Technology
[0002] To guide the buttons and waterproof the button positions on mobile phones, guide posts for guidance and waterproofing are installed in the button slots of the phone. Therefore, during the production and assembly process of mobile phones, before assembling the buttons into the middle frame, the waterproof guide posts need to be inserted into the guide post mounting holes in the button slots of the middle frame. In related technologies, the assembly of waterproof guide posts for mobile phone buttons is generally done manually or semi-manually by inserting the waterproof guide posts into the middle frame of the phone. As a result, the degree of automation is relatively low, which not only results in high labor costs but also low assembly efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0003] This invention aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. To this end, this invention proposes a button waterproof guide post assembly device, which can realize the automated assembly of button waterproof guide posts, thereby improving assembly efficiency and reducing labor costs.
[0004] A button waterproof guide post assembly device according to an embodiment of the present invention includes an assembly positioning mechanism, an insertion mechanism, a feeding mechanism, and a transfer mechanism. The assembly positioning mechanism is provided with a first positioning component, which is used to position the middle frame in a side-standing manner with the button slot facing upwards. The insertion mechanism is provided on one side of the assembly positioning mechanism and is used to insert the waterproof guide post into the button slot of the middle frame located on the first positioning component. The feeding mechanism includes a feeding drive module and a first picking component. The feeding drive module is connected to the first picking component and is used to drive the first picking component to pick up the middle frame conveyed in a flat manner from the conveyor belt and can transfer the middle frame to the feeding position. The transfer mechanism is located on one side of the assembly positioning mechanism and includes a transfer drive module and a loading and flipping component. The transfer drive module is used to drive the loading and flipping component to move and switch between the loading position and the transfer position. The loading and flipping component includes a loading and flipping driver and a loading and flipping part. The loading and flipping driver is connected to the loading and flipping part and is used to drive the loading and flipping part to flip and switch 90° between a first horizontal posture and a vertical posture, so that when the loading and flipping part is in the loading position, it can receive the middle frame of the first picking part in the first horizontal posture, and when the loading and flipping part is in the transfer position, it can transfer the middle frame to the first positioning component in a vertical posture with the button slot facing upward.
[0005] The button waterproof guide post assembly device according to the embodiment of this utility model has at least the following beneficial effects:
[0006] The button waterproof guide post assembly equipment of this embodiment can transfer the middle frame lying flat on the conveyor belt to the loading position through the loading mechanism. Then, the loading and flipping component receives the middle frame located at the loading position and flips it 90° so that the button slot faces upward. Under the drive of the transfer drive module, the loading and flipping component can transfer the middle frame with the button slot facing upward to the transfer position and hand it over to the first positioning component. After the middle frame with the button slot facing upward is positioned by the first positioning component, the insertion mechanism can insert the waterproof guide post into the button slot of the middle frame located on the first positioning component. Therefore, the button waterproof guide post assembly equipment of this utility model can automatically complete the middle frame loading, middle frame flipping and waterproof guide post insertion without human intervention. That is, the entire assembly process of the button waterproof guide post does not require human intervention, so the degree of automation is high and it is beneficial to improve assembly efficiency and reduce labor costs.
[0007] According to some embodiments of the waterproof guide post assembly equipment for buttons, the transfer mechanism further includes a transfer connector, a feeding lifting driver, and a feeding flipping assembly. The feeding flipping assembly and the feeding flipping assembly are respectively disposed at both ends of the transfer connector. The transfer drive module is connected to the transfer connector to drive the feeding flipping assembly and the feeding flipping assembly to move synchronously. When the feeding flipping assembly moves to the feeding position, the feeding flipping assembly can move synchronously to the receiving position. When the feeding flipping assembly moves to the transfer position, the feeding flipping assembly can move synchronously to the feeding position. The feeding flipping assembly includes a feeding flipping mechanism. The rotary drive and the unloading tilting component are connected. The unloading tilting drive is used to drive the unloading tilting component to rotate 90° between a second horizontal posture and a vertical posture. This allows the unloading tilting component to pick up the middle frame from the first positioning component in a vertical posture when it is in the transfer position, and to switch to the second horizontal posture when it is in the unloading position, thereby flipping the middle frame to a flat position. The unloading lifting drive is provided with a transfer connector and is connected to the unloading tilting component. When the unloading tilting component is in the unloading position, it can drive the unloading tilting component to move down to transfer the middle frame onto the conveyor belt.
[0008] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the button waterproof guide post assembly equipment has two assembly positioning mechanisms, namely a first assembly positioning mechanism and a second assembly positioning mechanism, which are arranged at intervals on one side of the transfer connector. The transfer position and the receiving position are respectively located on one side of the first assembly positioning mechanism and the second assembly positioning mechanism. The loading flipping component is used to transfer the middle frame to the first assembly positioning mechanism, and the unloading flipping component is used to pick up the middle frame from the second assembly positioning mechanism and unload it. The transfer connector is provided with a transfer picking component, which is located between the loading flipping component and the unloading flipping component. Under the drive of the transfer drive module, the transfer picking component can switch between the transfer position and the receiving position and transfer the middle frame from the first assembly positioning mechanism to the second assembly positioning mechanism.
[0009] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the button waterproof guide post assembly device has two insertion mechanisms, and the two insertion mechanisms are respectively arranged on one side of the two assembly positioning mechanisms, so as to simultaneously insert waterproof guide posts into the two middle frames on the two assembly positioning mechanisms.
[0010] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the button waterproof guide post assembly device includes a first positioning component including a positioning seat and an adsorption component. The positioning seat is provided with a positioning post, which is adapted to the positioning hole on the middle frame. The adsorption component is provided on the positioning seat and is used to adsorb and fix the middle frame.
[0011] According to some embodiments of the present invention, a button waterproof guide post assembly device is provided on one side of the first positioning component. The material sensor is used to detect whether there is a middle frame on the positioning seat.
[0012] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the button waterproof guide post assembly equipment includes an insertion mechanism comprising an insertion module and a vibratory feeder. The outlet of the vibratory feeder is connected to the insertion module through a supply pipe and is used to supply waterproof guide posts to the insertion module.
[0013] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the button waterproof guide post assembly equipment includes an insertion module comprising an insertion base, a material distribution plate, a material distribution driver, a pressure pin, and a pressing driver. The insertion base is provided with a feed hole and an insertion hole extending in a vertical direction. The upper end of the feed hole is connected to a feeding pipe. The pressure pin is slidably inserted into the insertion base with its lower end facing the insertion hole. The material distribution plate is provided with a receiving hole and is slidably connected to the insertion base. The material distribution driver is connected to the material distribution plate and is used to drive the material distribution plate to move between the receiving position and the pressing position. When the material distribution plate is in the receiving position, the receiving hole is connected to the lower end of the feed hole to receive the waterproof guide post. When the material distribution plate is in the pressing position, the receiving hole is connected to the upper end of the insertion hole. The pressing driver is connected to the pressure pin and is used to drive the pressure pin to pass through the receiving hole and the insertion hole.
[0014] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the button waterproof guide post assembly equipment includes an insertion mechanism that further includes an insertion drive module. The insertion drive module is connected to the insertion module and is used to drive the insertion module to move so that the lower end of the insertion hole can be aligned with the guide post mounting hole in the button slot on the centering frame.
[0015] The button waterproof guide post assembly equipment according to some embodiments of the present utility model further includes a feeding guide mechanism, which is disposed on the lower side of the feeding mechanism and is used to guide the middle frame on the conveyor belt to the material taking position below the first material taking part.

[0036] The following is for reference Figures 1 to 12 This describes a button waterproof guide post assembly device according to an embodiment of the present invention.
[0037] Reference Figures 1 to 4 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 and Figure 12 The button waterproof guide post assembly equipment of this embodiment includes an assembly positioning mechanism 40, an insertion mechanism 20, a feeding mechanism 10, and a transfer mechanism 30. The assembly positioning mechanism 40 is provided with a first positioning component, which is used to position the middle frame 30d in a side-standing manner with the button slot 392 facing upward. The insertion mechanism 20 is provided on one side of the assembly positioning mechanism 40 and is used to insert the waterproof guide post into the button slot 392 of the middle frame 30d located on the first positioning component. The feeding mechanism 10 includes a feeding drive module 110 and a first picking component 120. The feeding drive module 110 is connected to the first picking component 120 and is used to drive the first picking component 120 to pick up the middle frame 30d conveyed in a flat manner from the conveyor belt (not shown in the figure) and can transfer the middle frame 30d to the feeding position. The transfer mechanism 30 is located on one side of the assembly positioning mechanism 40 and includes a transfer drive module 310 and a loading and flipping component 30a. The transfer drive module 310 is used to drive the loading and flipping component 30a to move and switch between the loading position and the transfer position. The loading and flipping component 30a includes a loading and flipping driver 340 and a loading and flipping component 350. The loading and flipping driver 340 is connected to the loading and flipping component 350 and is used to drive the loading and flipping component 350 to flip and switch 90° between the first horizontal posture and the vertical posture, so that when the loading and flipping component 350 is in the loading position, it can receive the middle frame 30d transferred by the first picking component 120 in the first horizontal posture, and when the loading and flipping component 350 is in the transfer position, it can transfer the middle frame 30d to the first positioning component in a vertical posture with the button slot 392 facing upward.
[0038] The button waterproof guide post assembly equipment of this embodiment can transfer the middle frame 30d, which is lying flat on the conveyor belt, to the loading position through the loading mechanism 10. Then, the loading flipping component 30a receives the middle frame 30d located at the loading position and flips it 90° so that the button slot 392 faces upward. Under the drive of the transfer drive module 310, the loading flipping component 30a can transfer the middle frame 30d with the button slot 392 facing upward to the transfer position and hand it over to the first positioning component. After the middle frame 30d with the button slot 392 facing upward is positioned by the first positioning component, the insertion mechanism 20 can insert the waterproof guide post into the button slot 392 of the middle frame 30d located on the first positioning component. Therefore, the button waterproof guide post assembly equipment of this utility model can automatically complete the loading of the middle frame 30d, the flipping of the middle frame 30d and the insertion of the waterproof guide post without human intervention. That is, the entire assembly process of the button waterproof guide post does not require human intervention, so the degree of automation is high and it is beneficial to improve assembly efficiency and reduce labor costs.
[0039] It is understood that, in one embodiment, in combination with Figures 1 to 3The first picking component 120 is positioned above the conveyor belt for feeding, and the feeding position is located above the conveyor belt. The feeding drive module 110 is a linear driver whose drive end is connected to the first picking component 120, and the driving direction of the feeding drive module 110 is vertical. This enables the first picking component 120 to pick up the middle frame 30d on the conveyor belt and move it vertically to transfer the middle frame 30d to the feeding position.
[0040] It is understood that, in one embodiment, in combination with Figure 8 The loading tilting drive 340 is rotatably connected to the loading tilting component 350. The loading tilting drive 340 is a linear drive whose drive end can abut against the loading tilting component 350. The loading tilting drive 340 can make the loading tilting component 350 rotate through the linear motion of the drive end.
[0041] It should be understood that in some other embodiments, a rotary driver may also be selected as the feeding and tilting driver 340.
[0042] It is understood that, in one embodiment, in combination with Figure 7 The transfer drive module 310 includes a shifting linear driver 312 and a loading / unloading linear driver 311. The shifting linear driver 312 and the loading / unloading linear driver 311 have driving directions perpendicular to each other. The shifting linear driver 312 is disposed on the driving end of the loading / unloading linear driver 311. The shifting linear driver 312 can drive the loading and turning component 30a to move along a first direction, and the loading / unloading linear driver 311 can drive the loading and turning component 30a to move along a second direction, so that the loading and turning component 30a can be shifted between the loading position and the transfer position.
[0043] It is understood that in some embodiments, the transfer mechanism 30 further includes a transfer connector 320, a feeding lifting driver 330, and a feeding flipping component 30c. The feeding flipping component 30c and the feeding flipping component 30a are respectively disposed at both ends of the transfer connector 320. The transfer drive module 310 is connected to the transfer connector 320 to drive the feeding flipping component 30c and the feeding flipping component 30a to move synchronously, so that when the feeding flipping component 30a moves to the feeding position, the feeding flipping component 30c can move synchronously to the receiving position (it should be understood that if only one assembly positioning mechanism 40 is provided, the receiving position is the transfer position). Furthermore, during the process of the feeding flipping component 30a transferring the middle frame 30d to be inserted to the assembly positioning mechanism 40, the feeding flipping component 30c can transfer the middle frame 30d that has been inserted on the assembly positioning mechanism 40 to the feeding position. The feeding flipping component 30a and the feeding flipping component 30c cooperate to achieve the desired effect. To improve efficiency, the feeding and flipping assembly 30c includes a feeding and flipping driver 370 and a feeding and flipping component 380. The feeding and flipping driver 370 is connected to the feeding and flipping component 380 and is used to drive the feeding and flipping component 380 to flip 90° to switch between a second horizontal posture and a vertical posture. When the feeding and flipping component 380 is in the receiving position, it can pick up the middle frame 30d with the button groove 392 facing upward on the first positioning component in a vertical posture. When the feeding and flipping component 380 is in the feeding position, it can switch to the second horizontal posture to flip the middle frame 30d to a flat position. The feeding and lifting driver 330 is set on the transfer connector 320 and connected to the feeding and flipping assembly 30c. During the feeding process, the feeding and lifting driver 330 can drive the feeding and flipping assembly 30c to move down to get closer to the feeding conveyor belt, so that the feeding and flipping assembly 30c can put down the middle frame 30d at a position closer to the feeding conveyor belt, thereby reducing the impact of the middle frame 30d during the feeding process.
[0044] For example, in one embodiment, combined with Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 7 and Figure 10 The transfer connector 320 extends along the first direction. The loading tilting component 30a and the unloading lifting driver 330 are disposed at both ends of the transfer connector 320. The unloading tilting component 30c is disposed on the driving end of the unloading lifting driver 330, and the driving direction of the unloading lifting driver 330 is downward. The unloading tilting driver 370 is rotatably connected to the unloading tilting component 380. The unloading tilting driver 370 is a linear driver whose driving end can abut against the unloading tilting component 380. The unloading tilting driver 370 can make the unloading tilting component 380 rotate through the linear movement of the driving end.
[0045] It should be understood that, in some other embodiments, a rotary actuator may also be selected as the unloading flipping actuator 370. Furthermore, it should be understood that the first horizontal posture is the posture in which the suction surface of the suction cup in the loading flipping component 350 faces upwards, while the second horizontal posture is the posture in which the suction surface of the suction cup in the unloading flipping component 380 faces downwards.
[0046] It is understandable that, since the mobile phone buttons have volume control buttons and a power button, in order to insert waterproof guide posts into the button slots 392 of the volume control buttons and the power button respectively, in some embodiments, two assembly positioning mechanisms 40 are provided, namely a first assembly positioning mechanism and a second assembly positioning mechanism, which are arranged at intervals on one side of the transfer connector 320. The first assembly positioning mechanism and the second assembly positioning mechanism are used to position the middle frame 30d when installing the waterproof guide post in the button slot 392 of the volume control buttons, and to position the middle frame 30d when inserting the waterproof guide post in the button slot 392 of the power button. The transfer position and the receiving position are located on one side of the first assembly positioning mechanism and the second assembly positioning mechanism respectively. A transfer and picking component 30b is provided on the 0. The transfer and picking component 30b is located between the loading and unloading flipping component 30a and the unloading and flipping component 30c, and the transfer and picking component 30b can move synchronously with the loading and flipping component 30a and the unloading and flipping component 30c. Under the drive of the transfer drive module 310, during the process of the loading and flipping component 30a moving the middle frame 30d to the transfer position, the transfer and picking component 30b can move from the transfer position to the receiving position, and can move the middle frame 30d on the first assembly positioning mechanism to the second assembly positioning mechanism. Thus, the middle frame 30d can be switched at the same time during the loading of the middle frame 30d. That is, the middle frame that has completed the insertion of the waterproof guide post in the volume adjustment button slot on the first assembly positioning mechanism is transferred to the second assembly positioning mechanism for the insertion of the waterproof guide post in the switch button slot.
[0047] For example, in one embodiment, combined with Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 7 and Figure 9The first assembly positioning mechanism and the second assembly positioning mechanism are arranged at intervals along the first direction on one side of the transfer connector 320, with the first assembly positioning mechanism positioned on the side of the second assembly positioning mechanism closer to the loading position. The transfer picking component 30b is provided with a transfer suction cup 360 for adsorbing the middle frame 30d. The intervals between the transfer picking component 30b and the loading flipping component 30a and the unloading flipping component 30c are equal, and the intervals between the transfer picking component 30b and the first assembly positioning mechanism and the second assembly positioning mechanism are also equal. After the two middle frames 30d on the first assembly positioning mechanism and the second assembly positioning mechanism are inserted, the transfer drive module 310 drives the transfer connector 320 to move, so that the transfer picking component 30b and the unloading flipping component 30c simultaneously reach the transfer position and the receiving position, respectively, thereby picking up the two middle frames 30d on the first assembly positioning mechanism and the second assembly positioning mechanism. The transfer drive module 310 then drives the transfer connector 320 to perform a combined movement in the first and second directions, causing the transfer picking component 30b and the unloading flipping component 30c to simultaneously reach the receiving position and the unloading position, respectively, while the loading flipping component 30a reaches the transfer position. At this time, the loading flipping component 30a transfers the middle frame 30d picked up from the loading position to the first assembly positioning mechanism, the transfer picking component 30b transfers the middle frame 30d picked up from the first assembly positioning mechanism to the second assembly positioning mechanism, and the unloading flipping component 30c places the middle frame 30d picked up from the second assembly positioning mechanism onto the unloading conveyor belt. Subsequently, the transfer drive module 310 resets, and the loading flipping component 30a returns to the loading position under the drive of the transfer drive module 310 and picks up the middle frame 30d on the loading position. The repeated execution of the above process constitutes the operation flow of the transfer mechanism.
[0048] Understandably, in combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, in order to simultaneously insert waterproof guide posts into the two middle frames 30d on the two assembly positioning mechanisms 40, similarly, two insertion mechanisms 20 are provided, and the two insertion mechanisms 20 are respectively provided on one side of the two assembly positioning mechanisms 40, so as to insert waterproof guide posts into the volume adjustment button slot of the middle frame and into the switch button slot of the middle frame, respectively.
[0049] Understandably, in some embodiments, to ensure that the middle frame 30d can be securely and accurately fixed on the first positioning component, the first positioning component includes a positioning seat 410 and an adsorption member 420. The positioning seat 410 is provided with a positioning post 430. The positioning post 430 is adapted to the positioning hole 390 on the middle frame 30d. The positioning post 430 is provided with a guide structure, which enables the position of the middle frame 30d to be corrected during the process of assembling the positioning mechanism 40 to fix the middle frame 30d. The adsorption member 420 is provided on the positioning seat 410 and is used to adsorb and fix the middle frame 30d.
[0050] For example, combining Figure 11 and Figure 12 In one embodiment, the size and shape of the positioning seat 410 are adapted to the middle frame 30d, the adsorption member 420 passes through the through hole opened on the positioning seat 410, and a positioning post 430 is provided on the positioning seat 410 at a position corresponding to the positioning hole 390 on the middle frame 30d. The top end of the positioning post 430 is set into a cone shape that is adapted to the size and shape of the positioning hole 390, so that it can cooperate with the positioning hole 390 to correct the position of the middle frame 30d.
[0051] Understandably, in combination Figure 12 In some embodiments, a material sensor 440 is provided on one side of the first positioning component. The material sensor 440 is used to detect whether there is a middle frame 30d on the positioning seat 410, which helps the insertion mechanism 20 to perform insertion operations at the appropriate time.
[0052] Understandably, in combination Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the insertion mechanism 20 includes an insertion module 20a and a vibratory feeder 220. The outlet of the vibratory feeder 220 is connected to the insertion module 20a through a feed pipe (not shown in the figure) and is used to supply waterproof guide pillars to the insertion module 20a. This facilitates efficient supply of waterproof guide pillars to the insertion module 20a, thereby improving insertion efficiency.
[0053] Understandably, in some embodiments, considering the need to insert waterproof guide pillars, the insertion module 20a includes an insertion base 237, a distribution plate 233, a distribution driver 231, a pressure pin 234, and a pressing driver 239. The insertion base 237 is provided with a feed hole 232 and an insertion hole 235 extending vertically. The upper end of the feed hole 232 is connected to a feed tube. The pressure pin 234 is connected to the pressing driver 239. The pressure pin 234 is slidably inserted into the insertion base 237 with its lower end facing the insertion hole 235. The distribution plate 233 is provided with a receiving hole 236 and is slidably connected to the insertion base 237. The distribution driver 231 is connected to the distribution plate 233 and is used to drive the distribution plate 233 at the receiving position. The material distribution driver 231 drives the material distribution plate 233 to the receiving position. At this time, the receiving hole 236 is connected to the lower end of the feed hole 232. The waterproof guide post in the feed tube enters the receiving hole 236 from the feed port under the action of the vibratory feeder 220. Then, the material distribution driver 231 drives the material distribution plate 233 to the pressing position. At this time, the receiving hole 236 is connected to the upper end of the insertion hole 235, and the pressure pin 234 is directly opposite the waterproof guide post in the receiving hole 236, so that it can abut against the waterproof guide post in the receiving hole 236. Then, the pressing driver 239 drives the pressure pin 234 to push the waterproof guide post in the receiving hole 236 through the receiving hole 236 and the insertion hole 235 to complete the insertion of the waterproof guide post.
[0054] For example, combining Figures 4 to 6 In one embodiment, the material distribution driver 231 is a linear driver connected to the drive end and the material distribution plate 233. The feed hole 232 and the insertion hole 235 extend vertically and are arranged at intervals along the driving direction of the material distribution driver 231. A detection hole 238 is provided on one side of the feed hole 232 to detect whether the waterproof guide post has entered the receiving hole 236.
[0055] It is understood that in some embodiments, the insertion mechanism 20 further includes an insertion drive module 210 connected to the insertion module 20a. The insertion drive module 210 is used to drive the insertion module 20a to move so that the lower end of the insertion hole 235 can be aligned with the guide post mounting hole 391 in the button groove 392 on the centering frame 30d.
