[0037] The embodiments of this disclosure will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0038] The following specific examples illustrate the implementation of this disclosure. Those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of this disclosure from the content disclosed in this specification. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this disclosure, and not all of them. This disclosure can also be implemented or applied through other different specific embodiments, and the details in this specification can also be modified or changed based on different viewpoints and applications without departing from the spirit of this disclosure. It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the following embodiments and features in the embodiments can be combined with each other. Based on the embodiments in this disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this disclosure. Example
[0039] like Figure 1-8 As shown, this utility model provides a tube-shaped lead-cutting structure, including a substrate 5, and further comprising:
[0040] The base plate 5 serves as the supporting foundation for the entire structure, ensuring that each module can be installed and operated stably and accurately.
[0041] Track 1, fixed above substrate 5, guides product 6 to move along a predetermined path, ensuring the stability and continuity of product 6 during processing;
[0042] The booster module 2, located within the track 1, is used to maintain the forward movement of the product 6 queue. By precisely controlling the magnitude and direction of the booster force, the booster module 2 can ensure that the product 6 moves along the track 1 at a constant speed, thereby meeting the requirements of continuous processing.
[0043] Positioning module 3 is located on one side of boosting module 2 and fixedly connected to substrate 5. It is used to align the pins of product 6 to ensure that each product 6 meets the precise position requirements before processing. The degree of pin alignment directly affects the quality and performance of product 6.
[0044] The processing module 4 is located on the opposite side of the positioning module 3 and is used to perform foot cutting and forming on the product 6.
[0045] See Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 Boost module 2 includes:
[0046] The connecting plate 21 is securely installed above the rail 1, providing a stable mounting platform for the first cylinder 22 and ensuring the stability and accuracy of the first cylinder 22 in the push-pull action;
[0047] The first cylinder 22, mounted on the connecting plate 21, serves as the power source for the booster module 2. The first cylinder 22 drives the movement of the slider 24 and the hook 23 through the extension and retraction of its movable end. It provides the necessary thrust and pull to ensure that the hook 23 can smoothly engage and slide out of the hole of the product 6, thereby pushing the product 6 forward along the track 1.
[0048] Both the slider 24 and the hook 23 are connected to the movable end of the first cylinder 22, wherein the hook 23 is movably disposed in the middle of the slider 24;
[0049] The hook 23 has a sharp tip that can easily engage with the hole in the product 6. When the first cylinder 22 pushes forward, the hook tip engages with the hole in the product 6 and propels the product 6 forward along the track 1. When the first cylinder 22 pulls back, due to the curved design of the inner side of the hook tip, the hook 23 can smoothly slide out of the hole in the product 6 and automatically adjust its position to prepare to engage with the next hole in the product 6. This design not only improves the efficiency and accuracy of the booster module 2, but also avoids production interruptions caused by the hook 23 getting stuck or damaging the product 6.
[0050] See also Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 7 The positioning module 3 includes:
[0051] The second cylinder 31, the third cylinder 32 and the fourth cylinder 33 are arranged side by side on one side of the track 1 and work together to achieve precise positioning of the product 6. Each cylinder is equipped with a corresponding piston rod, which is used to push or pull the product 6 under the extension and retraction action of the cylinder.
[0052] Second cylinder 31: Usually used to initially push product 6 closer to positioning module 3, in preparation for subsequent precise positioning.
[0053] The third cylinder 32 plays a crucial role in the pin alignment process of product 6. It can further push product 6 based on the second cylinder 31 to ensure that the pins of product 6 are precisely aligned with the positioning post 39 in the positioning module 3.
[0054] Fourth cylinder 33: Before the foot-cutting and forming process of product 6, it is used to stabilize the position of product 6 and prevent it from moving or shifting during processing.
[0055] The fifth cylinder 34 is vertically disposed on one side of the second cylinder 31 or the fourth cylinder 33, and is connected to a positioning plate 35 for locking the product 6. The lower surface of the positioning plate 35 is provided with positioning posts 39, which match the holes in the product 6;
[0056] The function of the fifth cylinder 34 is to pull down the positioning plate 35 after the product 6 reaches the predetermined position, so that the positioning pin 39 can be accurately inserted into the hole of the product 6, thereby locking the product 6. This locking mechanism ensures that the product 6 maintains a stable position during the subsequent foot cutting and forming process, avoiding processing errors caused by positional deviation.
[0057] See Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 7 The second cylinder 31, the third cylinder 32, and the fourth cylinder 33 are respectively equipped with a first positioning sensor 36, a second positioning sensor 37, and a third positioning sensor 38 in their vertical directions, which are used for:
[0058] The system monitors whether product 6 has entered the processing state in front of the second cylinder 31. When product 6 is pushed to the vicinity of the second cylinder 31 by the booster module 2, the first positioning sensor 36 will send a signal and the processing module 4 will press down to complete the pre-pressing.
[0059] The device monitors whether product 6 has completed the lead cutting process in front of the third cylinder 32. After the third cylinder 32 pushes product 6 to align the leads, the lead cutting forming process device will cut the leads of product 6. When the cutting is completed, the second positioning sensor 37 will detect the change in the state of product 6 and send a signal to confirm the completion of the lead cutting process and start the next stage of processing.
[0060] The monitoring system checks whether product 6 has completed the bending and forming process in front of the fourth cylinder 33. After the fourth cylinder 33 stabilizes the position of product 6, the bending and forming equipment will bend the pins of product 6. When the bending is completed, the third positioning sensor 38 will detect the change in the state of product 6 and send a signal to confirm the completion of the bending and forming process. This helps the control system to determine whether product 6 has reached the expected processing quality and prepare for subsequent transmission operations.
[0061] The first positioning sensor 36, the second positioning sensor 37, and the third positioning sensor 38 include at least one of a miniature displacement sensor, a specular reflection sensor, and a photoelectric sensor.
[0062] Miniature displacement sensors, such as miniature linear variable differential transformer displacement sensors, feature high precision, high resolution, and low noise. They are used to measure minute displacement changes, enabling real-time monitoring of the position changes of product 6. In positioning module 3, the miniature displacement sensor can accurately measure the displacement of product 6 at different processing stages, ensuring that product 6 moves along a predetermined path and position. This helps the control system achieve precise positioning control, improving processing accuracy and product 6 quality.
[0063] The mirror reflection sensor changes the optical path by reflecting a light beam and uses precise optical reflection and projection to measure the displacement changes of an object. In the positioning module 3, the mirror reflection sensor can reflect light and change the optical path, thereby achieving accurate measurement of the position of product 6. The mirror can also protect the optical system from environmental interference, improving the accuracy and stability of the measurement.
[0064] Photoelectric sensors utilize photoelectric principles for object detection and measurement, and typically consist of a light source, a probe, and a circuit board. They achieve detection by detecting object blocking or reflection of light. In positioning module 3, the photoelectric sensor monitors whether product 6 has reached the predetermined position. When product 6 blocks the light emitted by the sensor, the sensor sends a signal to confirm the arrival of product 6.
[0065] See Figure 7 Processing module 4 includes:
[0066] The operating table 41 is located above the substrate 5, providing the operator with a stable working platform to facilitate the pin processing of components;
[0067] The sixth cylinder 45 is located below the base plate 5, and its movable end is provided with a pre-pressing block 42 and a cutting head 43 and a forming head 44 arranged side by side.
[0068] The pre-pressing block 42 is elastically connected to the lower part of the cutting head 43 and the forming head 44. Through the downward movement of the sixth cylinder 45, the pre-pressing block 42 first presses down to fix the pin, and then the cutting head 43 and the forming head 44 perform pin processing.
[0069] See Figure 7 The cutting head 43 and the forming head 44 are integrally formed.
[0070] See Figure 7 The operating table 41 is equipped with a feeding port 46 for collecting the cut waste material.
[0071] See Figure 2 An overhead support 7 is provided below the substrate 5 to provide stable support when the substrate 5 is lifted.
