[0038] Traditional production and assembly processes use inefficient manual assembly methods for sealing rings, resulting in low assembly efficiency, large product quality deviations, and low stability.

[0039] Subsequently, products automating the assembly of sealing rings emerged in the market, which could further improve the speed of the sealing ring assembly process and the stability of the produced products. However, although the sealing ring assembly equipment currently used for storage tubes can meet the production process of simple sealing ring assembly, problems such as sealing ring falling off and deformation are prone to occur during the assembly process.

[0040] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this embodiment provides an automated ring pressing machine and a storage tube production system.

[0041] Please refer to Figure 1 This embodiment provides an automated sealing ring pressing machine for conveying sealing rings 21, comprising:

[0042] Drive unit 100, assembly plate 200, multiple push rod assemblies 300 and multiple guide rail mechanisms 400;

[0043] The assembly plate 200 is provided with a plurality of assembly holes 201, the number of assembly holes 201 being greater than or equal to the number of push rod assemblies 300, and the push rod assemblies 300 cooperating with the corresponding assembly holes 201.

[0044] The number of mounting holes 201 is greater than or equal to the number of guide rail mechanisms 400, and the guide rail grooves 401 of the guide rail mechanism 400 are connected to the corresponding mounting holes 201; the guide rail mechanism 400 is configured to allow multiple sealing rings 21 to remain close together and be slidably disposed in the guide rail grooves 401.

[0045] The push rod assembly 300 is located above the corresponding guide rail mechanism 400; the push rod assembly 300 includes a plurality of push rods 310, the outer diameter of each push rod 310 being smaller than the inner diameter of the sealing ring 21; in each push rod assembly 300, the plurality of push rods 310 correspond one-to-one with the plurality of sealing rings 21 in the corresponding guide rail mechanism 400, so that adjacent push rods 310 can be inserted into adjacent sealing rings 21;

[0046] Multiple push rod assemblies 300 are connected to the drive device 100; the drive device 100 is configured to drive the multiple push rods 310 of the push rod assembly 300 to insert into the corresponding sealing rings 21, and drive the sealing rings 21 to move along the guide rail to the assembly hole 201.

[0047] In this automated ring pressing machine, each pusher assembly 300 has multiple pushers 310 corresponding one-to-one with multiple sealing rings 21 in the corresponding guide rail mechanism 400, so that adjacent pushers 310 can be inserted into adjacent sealing rings 21. The drive device 100 is used to drive the multiple pushers 310 of the pusher assembly 300 to insert into the corresponding sealing rings 21, and to drive the sealing rings 21 to move along the guide rail to the assembly hole 201. By changing the original longitudinal single sealing ring 21 pusher 310 to a row of pushers 310, it can effectively ensure that the sealing rings 21 are conveyed at a certain interval during the conveying process, avoiding deformation, stacking, and compression of the sealing rings 21. Furthermore, the outer diameter of the pusher 310 is set to be slightly smaller than the inner diameter of the sealing ring 21, thus preventing the pusher 310 from pushing multiple sealing rings 21 at once and preventing the sealing rings 21 from twisting and deforming during the pushing process. In summary, this automated ring pressing machine can ensure the conveying efficiency of the sealing rings 21 while avoiding deformation, stacking, and compression of the sealing rings 21.

[0048] Please continue reading. Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 To understand the structural details of the automated ring pressing machine, the figure shows that, in an optional embodiment, the automated ring pressing machine also includes a support plate 500, on which multiple push rod assemblies 300 are mounted. The support plate 500 is connected to the drive device 100. That is, the support plate 500 serves as a mounting platform for the multiple push rod assemblies 300, and also as a connection point for the drive device 100, thereby facilitating the disassembly and maintenance of the entire push rod assembly 300 and the drive device 100.

[0049] In an optional embodiment, the support plate 500 is provided with a plurality of mounting holes 510, and the push rod assembly 300 is detachably disposed in the mounting holes 510; and the support plate 500 has a through channel 520 that extends through the support plate 500 along its thickness direction. The mounting holes 510 facilitate the installation, removal and operation of the push rod 310, while the through channel 520 serves to separate adjacent push rod assemblies 300 and reduce the weight of the support plate 500.

[0050] from Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3As can be seen from the optional embodiment, the push rod 310 includes a cylindrical mounting platform 320; along the height direction of the push rod 310, the mounting platform 320 has a first end 321 and a second end 322, the first end 321 being able to connect to the drive device 100; the second end 322 is provided with at least one notch 323; along the radial direction of the mounting platform 320, the notch 323 penetrates the mounting platform 320 in a direction parallel to the radial direction; along the axial direction of the mounting platform 320, the notch 323 extends from the second end 322 toward the first end 321, and the end of the notch 323 is spaced apart from the first end 321. The cylindrical structure facilitates the insertion and mating with the annular sealing ring 21. In an optional embodiment, the diameter of the mounting platform 320 is 0.5-1 mm larger than the diameter of the mounting hole 201. That is, the outer diameter of the push rod 310 is slightly smaller than the inner diameter of the sealing ring 21, so as to avoid the push rod 310 pushing multiple sealing rings 21 at one time and to avoid the sealing rings 21 twisting and deforming during the pushing process.

[0051] Please continue reading. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As can also be seen from the figure, in an optional embodiment, multiple mounting holes 201 are arranged along a first straight line, and multiple push rods 310 in each push rod assembly 300 extend in the same direction; the first straight line maintains an angle with the extension direction of the push rod assembly 300. This facilitates the arrangement of the push rods 310 and avoids interference between the push rods 310 of adjacent push rod assemblies 300. Optionally, the first straight line is perpendicular to the extension direction of the push rod assembly 300.

[0052] In an optional implementation, the multiple push rod assemblies 300 remain parallel to each other. This ensures a simpler and more efficient path for the push rod assembly 300 during operation.

[0053] In an optional embodiment, the drive device 100 includes a lifting drive mechanism 110 and a horizontal drive mechanism 120; multiple push rod assemblies 300 are disposed on the lifting drive mechanism 110, and the lifting drive mechanism 110 is connected to the horizontal drive mechanism 120; the lifting drive mechanism 110 is configured to drive the push rod assemblies 300 to descend to insert into the sealing ring 21 or rise to disengage from the sealing ring 21; the horizontal drive mechanism 120 is configured to drive the lifting drive mechanism 110 to move along the extension direction of the guide rail mechanism 400 to move the sealing ring 21 into the mounting hole 201. Here, the lifting drive mechanism 110 and the horizontal drive mechanism 120 can respectively realize the actions of inserting and disengaging the push rod 310 into the sealing ring 21, and the action of the push rod 310 driving the sealing ring 21 to move into the mounting hole 201.

[0054] In an optional embodiment, both the lifting drive mechanism 110 and the horizontal drive mechanism 120 are cylinders.

[0055] As can also be seen from the figure, in an optional embodiment, the guide rail mechanism 400 includes two guide rail units 410, which together form a guide rail groove 401. Each guide rail unit 410 includes a top plate 411 and a bottom plate 412, with a gap space 413 between the top plate 411 and the bottom plate 412. Along the width direction of the guide rail mechanism 400, the two sides of the sealing ring 21 are respectively located in the two gap spaces 413 of the guide rail mechanism 400, so that the center of the sealing ring 21 is located in the guide rail groove 401. This arrangement can ensure more accurate and efficient insertion and engagement of the push rod 310 and the sealing ring 21.

[0056] The working principle of the automated ring pressing machine is as follows:

[0057] Step A: The equipment moves the sealing ring 21 to the end of the guide rail groove 401 under the vibration of the vibrating plate;

[0058] Step B: The push rod 310 is lifted and moved backward (in the direction shown in Figure 2) by the cylinder of the drive device 100 (one step is the distance of one sealing ring 21), and then the push rod 310 falls down and fits against the top plate 411 of the guide rail unit 410, and the push rod 310 is inserted into the sealing ring 21.

[0059] Step C: With the push rod 310 in contact with the guide rail unit 410, move forward (direction as shown in Figure 2) one step (one step is the distance of one sealing ring 21) to send the sealing ring 21 into the assembly hole 201 for the next step of sealing ring 21 installation;

[0060] Step D: Repeat steps B and C above to complete the installation of the continuous sealing ring 21 by quickly and effectively pushing it into the assembly hole 201 at fixed intervals.

[0061] Secondly, this utility model provides a preservation tube production system, which includes an automated ring pressing machine according to any of the foregoing embodiments.

[0062] In summary, this utility model provides an automated pressing machine and a storage tube production system, which has at least the following advantages:

[0063] The improved equipment has a better effect on conveying the sealing ring 21, and can ensure that the spacing and position of the sealing ring 21 can be accurately conveyed, reducing the failure rate during equipment assembly and the deformation of the sealing ring 21 during the conveying process.

[0064] The above are merely specific embodiments of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the scope of the claims.
