Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technology of water temperature sensor processing, and in particular to an automatic stamping equipment for water temperature sensor housing. Background Technology
[0002] Strictly speaking, water temperature sensors fall into two main categories. Regardless of the type, their internal structure is that of a thermistor, with a resistance ranging from 275 ohms to 6500 ohms. Furthermore, the resistance increases as the temperature decreases and decreases as the temperature rises. The first type of water temperature sensor functions simply by using changes in its internal resistance to alter the current flowing through the sensor, thus driving changes in the water temperature gauge and indirectly informing the engine's operating temperature. The second type of water temperature sensor, while structurally similar, provides an analog signal of temperature change to the engine control unit.
[0003] The housing of a water temperature sensor requires stamping in multiple locations during manufacturing. Current methods involve manual stamping using external tools, resulting in low automation, high labor costs, and low stamping efficiency, making it unsuitable for large-scale production. Therefore, it is necessary to research a new technical solution to address these issues. Utility Model Content

[0034] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5 As shown, it illustrates the specific structure of a preferred embodiment of the present invention, including a frame 10, a controller 20, a material carrier 30, a pressing device 40, and a stamping device 50.
[0035] The controller 20 is mounted on the frame 10. In this embodiment, the frame 10 also includes a cover 11 with an opening at the front end. The controller 20 is mounted on the inner wall of the cover 11. The material carrier 30, the pressing device 40, and the stamping device 50 are all covered by the cover 11. The cover can provide a certain degree of protection for the operation of the material carrier 30, the pressing device 40, and the stamping device 50, preventing them from being interfered with by external factors. Sensors 12 are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sidewalls of the opening of the cover 11. Both sensors 12 are connected to the controller 20. The sensors 12 are used to sense whether the operator has put their arm into the cover 11 during the stamping process. If so, the information will be transmitted to the controller 20, and the controller 20 will stop the stamping process to prevent the operator's arm from being put into the cover 11 and causing danger, thus improving safety. The frame 10 is provided with a first slide rail 13 and a first drive mechanism 14. The first slide rail 13 extends forward and backward.
[0036] The material carrier 30 is mounted on the frame 10, and has a material discharge slot 301 that mates with the housing of the water temperature sensor. In this embodiment, the material carrier 30 is mounted on the first slide rail 13 and is movable back and forth along the first slide rail 13 on the frame 10. The first drive mechanism 14 is mounted on the frame 10 and drives the material carrier 30 to move back and forth. The first drive mechanism 14 is connected to the controller 20, so that during the loading and unloading process, the material carrier 30 can be moved forward by the first drive mechanism 14, thereby facilitating the operator to load and unload materials and making the working process more convenient. The material carrier 30 has a positioning slot 302 with an opening at the top.
[0037] The pressing device 40 is mounted on the frame 10 and located directly above the material carrier 30. The output end of the pressing device 40 corresponds to the position of the discharge trough 301, and the pressing device 40 is connected to the controller 20. In this embodiment, the output end of the pressing device 40 is provided with a positioning rod 41 that cooperates with the positioning groove 302. The positioning rod 41 extends downward into the positioning groove 302 as the output end of the pressing device 40 moves. Through the cooperation between the positioning rod 41 and the positioning groove 302, the position of the material carrier 30 is positioned to prevent the material carrier 30 from sliding back and forth during the stamping process, thus ensuring the quality of the stamping. The pressing device 40 includes a mounting frame 42, a first movable seat 43, a second drive mechanism 44, and a pressing head 45. The mounting frame 42 is mounted on the frame 10 and located above the material carrier 30. The first movable seat 43 is movably mounted on the mounting frame 42. The second drive mechanism 44 is mounted on the mounting frame 42 and drives the first movable seat 43 to move up and down. The second drive mechanism 44 is connected to the controller 20. The pressing head 45 is mounted on the first movable seat 43 and moves up and down with the first movable seat 43. The pressing head 45 corresponds to the position of the discharge trough 301. By pressing down and pressing the water temperature sensor housing in the discharge trough 301 with the pressing head 45, it prevents the sensor from sliding on the discharge trough 301, thus further ensuring the stability of the stamping process.
[0038] The stamping device 50 is mounted on the frame 10 and located next to the material carrier 30. There are multiple stamping devices 50, and the output end of each stamping device 50 corresponds to the position of the discharge chute 301. Each stamping device 50 is connected to the controller 20. In this embodiment, three stamping devices 50 are provided. Each stamping device 50 includes a bracket 51, a second slide rail 52, a second movable seat 53, a third drive mechanism 54, and a stamping head 55. The bracket 51 is mounted on the frame 10 and located beside the material carrier 30. The second slide rail 52 is mounted on the bracket 51, and the extension direction of the second slide rail 52 faces the material discharge trough 301. The second movable seat 53 is mounted on the second slide rail 52 and moves back and forth along the extension direction of the second slide rail 52. The second slide rail 52 makes the movement of the second movable seat 53 smoother and more stable, thereby making the stamping process more stable and the stamping effect better. The third drive mechanism 54 is mounted on the bracket 51 and drives the second movable seat 53 to move back and forth. The third drive mechanism 54 is connected to the controller 20. The stamping head 55 is mounted on the second movable seat 53 and moves back and forth beside the material discharge trough 301 along with the second movable seat 53. The second slide rail 52 is set at a certain angle to the horizontal direction, so that the stamping head 55 can complete the stamping process of the water temperature sensor housing at a certain angle. Similarly, the stamping angle can be adjusted by adjusting the extension angle of the second slide rail 52, making it more functional.
[0039] The key design feature of this invention is that by incorporating a material carrier, a pressing device, and a stamping device, the material is pressed firmly during stamping, and then the stamping device completes the automated stamping process, effectively reducing labor costs. Furthermore, the invention utilizes multiple stamping devices, each with its output end corresponding to a feeding slot, allowing for simultaneous stamping of different positions through multiple devices. This significantly improves stamping efficiency and meets the demands of large-scale processing.
[0040] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and does not constitute any limitation on the technical scope of the present utility model. Therefore, any minor modifications, equivalent changes and alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model shall still fall within the scope of the technical solution of the present utility model.
