[0030] like Figure 1-8As shown, an automatic assembly device for endotracheal tube connectors is characterized by: a main unit 1, a cam mounting mechanism 2 and a control display screen 3 on the upper part of the main unit 1; a core component vibrating plate 4 and a cap vibrating plate 5 respectively on both sides of the main unit 1; a core component material channel 401 and a cap vibrating plate 501 respectively between the core component vibrating plate 4 and the cap vibrating plate 5 and the cam mounting mechanism 2; a core component 7 is placed inside the core component material channel 401; a cap 6 is placed on the cap vibrating plate 501; the cap vibrating plate 501 is higher than the core component material channel 401; a heater 502 is arranged above the cap vibrating plate 5 for heating the cap 6; a core component identification detector 402 is arranged on the side of the core component material channel 401 near the core component vibrating plate for detecting whether there is a shortage of material in the core component material channel 401 and uploading the feedback information to the control display screen 3 for reminder; a finished product material channel 203 is arranged on the side of the cam mounting mechanism 2 away from the control display screen 3. The cam mounting mechanism 2 includes a downward pressure balance plate 204. One end of the downward pressure balance plate 204 is provided with a downward pressure assembler 208. The lower part of the downward pressure assembler 208 is also provided with a counterweight balance plate 211. A cap identification detector 205 is provided on the side of the counterweight balance plate 211 away from the downward pressure assembler 208. The cap identification detector 205 passes through the lower part of the counterweight balance plate 211. A cap pressing transmission component 207 is provided on the side of the downward pressure assembler 208 near the cap material channel 501. A core component transmission detector 206 is provided on the side of the cap identification detector 205 near the cap material channel 501. The core component transmission detector 206 is used to detect the placement posture of the core component 7 after assembly. The cap pressing transmission component 207 is used to prevent the cap 6 from getting stuck during the transmission process.
[0031] like Figure 4-5 As shown, the core component transmission detector 206 is also equipped with an optical fiber sensor 2061 and a swinging workpiece 2062. The optical fiber sensor 2061 is inserted into the upper part of the swinging workpiece, and the protruding side of the swinging workpiece 2062 contacts and moves the core component 7. The cap pressing transmission component 207 is equipped with a transmission limiting component 2071, and the lower end of the transmission limiting component 2071 is used to abut against the upper surface of the cap 6.
[0032] like Figure 6As shown, a first support 209 and a second support 210 are respectively provided on the outer sides of the pressing assembler 208. A first support bearing 2091 and a second support bearing 2101 are respectively provided on the upper part of the first support 209 and the second support 210. The lower part of the first support 209 and the second support 210 are provided with grooves for engaging the upper surface of the cap 6. After the cap recognition detector 205 recognizes the cap 6, the first support 209 and the second support 210 approach the pressing assembler 208, so that the first support bearing 2091 and the second support bearing 2101 abut against the pressing assembler 208, which facilitates the lower end of the pressing assembler 208 to press the cap 6 into the core 7.
[0033] like Figure 1-8 As shown, a camshaft 202 is provided on the outer side of the bottom of the cam mounting mechanism 2, a synchronous guide wheel 2011 is provided on one side of the camshaft 202, a servo motor 201 is provided on the inner side of the synchronous guide wheel 2011, and the synchronous guide wheel 2011 and the camshaft 202 are connected by a belt. A transmission main wheel 2021 is provided on one axial side of the camshaft 202. The transmission main wheel 2021 rotates coaxially with the camshaft 202. A transmission base 2026 is connected to the upper part of the transmission main wheel 2021. The transmission main wheel 2021 reciprocates with the transmission main wheel 2021. A transmission connecting rod 2022 is also connected to the transmission main wheel 2021. A connecting base 2023 is provided at one end of the transmission connecting rod 2022. The connecting base 2023 is fixedly connected to the transmission connecting rod 2022 by bolts. A guide push rod 2024 is engaged on the upper part of the connecting base 2023. One end of the guide push rod 2024 passes through the rectangular space formed at the lower part of the transmission base 2026. A main wheel origin sensor 2025 is also provided on the side of the transmission main wheel 2021 away from the camshaft 202. The main wheel origin sensor 2025 is used to calibrate the distance between the starting point and the ending point of the reciprocating motion of the transmission main wheel 2021. The control display screen 3 can display the operating speed of the entire device and the assembly status of the core component 7 and the cap 6.
[0034] Working installation principle: The core component 7 and the cap 6 are placed into the core component vibrating plate 4 and the cap 6 vibrating plate 5 respectively. The assembly speed of the cam mounting mechanism 2 pressing down on the core component 7 and the cap 6 is set by the control display screen 3. The core component identification detector 402 is used to detect whether there is a shortage of material on the core component material channel 401. The feedback information is uploaded to the control display screen 3 to remind the operator to replenish the material in time. The lower assembly 208 is provided with a first support 209 and a second support 210 on its outer sides respectively. The upper part of the first support 209 and the second support 210 is provided with a first support bearing 2091 and a second support bearing 2101 respectively. The lower part of the first support 209 and the second support 210 is provided with a groove for engaging the upper surface of the cap 6. After the cap recognition detector 205 recognizes the cap 6, the first support 209 and the second support 210 approach the lower assembly 208, so that the first support bearing 2091 and the second support bearing 2101 abut against the lower assembly 208 respectively, so that the lower end of the lower assembly 208 presses the cap 6 into the core 7. It should be noted that the cap identifier 205 performs real-time detection on the cap 6. When the cap 6 is in place, the corresponding first support 209 and second support 210 press down on the assembler 208 to bring them close together, so that the grooves on both sides engage with the upper part of the cap 6. This facilitates full pressing contact between the lower end of the assembler 208 and the cap 6, preventing the cap 6 from falling off due to force during the pressing process, which would affect the normal assembly and installation with the core component 7 later.
[0035] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.
