[0034] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0035] Combination Figure 1-7 This embodiment discloses a relay core stranding and riveting mechanism. The mechanism has a simple structure, is stable and reliable, and can efficiently complete the stranding and riveting operation of the relay core, while reducing the risk of mechanical failure and facilitating subsequent maintenance operations.

[0036] Specifically, the relay core stranding and riveting mechanism includes an n-shaped support 100, which serves as the main support structure. An upper plate 110 is spaced above the support 100. The upper plate 110 is a horizontal plate structure. The bottom of the upper plate 110 is connected to the top of the support 100 by four vertical support rods 120. The inner side of the support rods 120 forms a riveting space capable of accommodating the lifting platform 210 and the mold clamping assembly 300.

[0037] The top of the upper plate 110 is provided with a riveting drive source 200. The riveting drive source 200 is specifically a booster cylinder. The riveting drive source 200 has a movable end that can move vertically downward, that is, a telescopic rod of the cylinder that is set vertically downward. The bottom of the movable end is connected to a lifting platform 210. The lifting platform 210 can be controlled by the riveting drive source 200 to perform linear up and down movements.

[0038] To make the movement path of the lifting platform 210 more stable, the lifting platform 210 is connected to four vertical first guide rods 220 through sliding bushings, and the bottom of the first guide rods 220 is fixed on the support 100.

[0039] Support 100 is located below lifting platform 210 and has mold closing assembly 300. Specifically, in conjunction with Figure 2 The support 100 has an installation groove 140 at the center of the riveting space on its top end face. A positioning plate 150 is provided on one side of the installation groove 140. The positioning plate 150 is fixed on the side wall of the support 100. The installation groove 140 is used to install the mold closing assembly 300.

[0040] The mold clamping assembly 300 includes a base 310 connected to the mounting groove 140. A vertical lower ejector pin 311 is fixed to the top of the base 310. The top of the base 310 also has four vertically arranged lifting guide rods, specifically... Figure 2 The second guide rod 312 is connected to the lower mold 320. The lower mold 320 can move stably up and down along the second guide rod 312. In order to make the lower mold 320 separate from the base 310 in a free state, an elastic support structure is provided between the lower mold 320 and the base 310. Specifically, a spring is sleeved on the second guide rod 312, which is not shown in the figure.

[0041] The lower mold 320 is provided with a tooling fixture 330, and the tooling fixture 330 is provided with a tooling slot 340 for placing the relay core to be riveted. Specifically, the assembly 3 and Figure 5The tooling fixture 330 is detachably mounted on the top of the lower mold 320. The tooling fixture 330 includes a base plate 331 connected to the lower mold 320. A tooling block 332 is bolted to the top of the base plate 331. A tooling groove 340 is located in the central area of ​​the tooling block 332. The base plate 331 is provided with a through hole at the position of the lower ejector pin 311 directly below the tooling groove 340. After the lower mold 320 moves down, the lower ejector pin 311 can pass through the through hole from bottom to top and penetrate into the tooling groove 340. Its function is to cooperate with the upper mold 370 to complete a precise riveting control structure.

[0042] Furthermore, the mold clamping assembly 300 also includes an upper mold 370 disposed at the bottom of the lifting platform 210. The bottom of the upper mold 370 is provided with a riveting head 372. The upper mold 370 can follow the lifting platform 210 downwards to form a riveting mechanism with the lower mold 320. The bottom of the upper mold 370 is provided with support legs 371 around its perimeter. After downwards, the support legs 371 can hold the lower mold 320, so that during riveting, the lower mold 320 can be driven to move downwards synchronously, thereby cooperating with the lower ejector pin 311 to complete the riveting action.

[0043] In order to ensure the accuracy of the riveting action, a positioning and insertion structure is provided between the tooling fixture 330 and the upper mold 370. The positioning and insertion structure includes a positioning pin 333 on the tooling fixture 330 and a positioning hole 373 at the bottom of the lower mold 320.

[0044] In order to ensure that the relay core can maintain a stable posture in the tooling slot 340, the lower die 320 is provided with a group of positioning components on the periphery of the tooling slot 340. The positioning components can laterally limit the relay core located in the tooling slot 340, and the positioning components can move synchronously with the lower die 320 during the riveting process to ensure the stability of the tooling during the riveting process.

[0045] Specifically, the positioning elements in this embodiment include a first positioning element 350 and a second positioning element 360, combined with... Figure 6 and Figure 7 The first positioning component 350 includes a first positioning block 351, with a first positioning drive source 352 connected to the outside of the first positioning block 351. The first positioning drive source 352 and the first positioning block 351 are connected to the lower mold 320 via a first mounting base 353 at the bottom. The second positioning component 360 includes a second positioning block 361, with a second positioning drive source 362 connected to the outside of the second positioning block 361. The second positioning drive source 362 and the second positioning block 361 are connected to the lower mold 320 via a second mounting base 363 at the bottom. Both the first positioning drive source 352 and the second positioning drive source 362 adopt a cylinder structure.

[0046] To ensure a more stable and reliable support effect for the riveting operation, the support 100 is provided with a support plate structure, specifically a central support plate 130, located directly below the mold clamping assembly 300. Figure 1 As shown.

[0047] To ensure stable riveting stroke, combined with Figure 2 The lifting platform 210 and the support 100 are provided with a travel limit structure, specifically a slide bracket 160 set on the support 100. When the lifting platform 210 descends to the threshold travel, the lifting platform 210 will be limited by the slide bracket 160 to avoid excessive riveting of the relay core.

[0048] In the specific implementation process, in conjunction with the external loading and unloading mechanism, the relay cores to be riveted are placed one by one into the tooling slot 340. The first positioning block 351 and the second positioning block 361 move inward to fix the cores on the tooling side. The riveting drive source 200 controls the lifting platform 210 to drive the upper mold 370 to move down synchronously. After moving down, the riveting head 372 first contacts the top of the lower core, which provides appropriate pre-tightening constraint. Then, the support leg 371 of the upper mold 370 contacts the lower mold 320 and drives the lower mold 320, tooling fixture 330 and cores to move down synchronously. During this process, the riveting head 372 works with the lower ejector pin 311 to complete the riveting operation on the cores.

[0049] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
