[0030] The present invention will now be further described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, such as... Figures 1-4As shown, the bulb assembly machine feeding device according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a base 1 and a vibratory feeder 2. The vibratory feeder 2 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the base 1, which is a common feeding mechanism. A rotating column 3 is rotatably connected to one side of the vibratory feeder 2 on the top surface of the base 1 via a first rotating connecting seat 4.

During bulb mounting, the bulb is fed by the vibratory feeder 2. The second drive motor 8 drives the lead screw 9 to rotate, causing the lifting plate 13 to move downwards and the suction groove 17 to cover the top surface of the bulb. Then, the vacuum pump 14 evacuates air, using negative pressure to fix the bulb. Subsequently, the second drive motor 8 drives the lead screw 9 to rotate in the opposite direction, pulling out the bulb. The first drive motor 5 drives the drive gear 6 to rotate, causing the driven gear 11 and the rotating column 3 to rotate, causing the bulb to flip over to above the bulb mounting plate 19. Then, the second drive motor 8 drives the lead screw 9 to rotate, causing the lifting plate 13 to move downwards. The device moves downwards, causing the bulb to be inserted into the bulb mounting plate 19. Subsequently, the dual-purpose pump 14 for both vacuuming and inflation inflates the bulb, allowing it to separate from the suction groove 17 for feeding. This device uses the suction groove 17 for adsorption feeding, resulting in a simpler structure. It also eliminates the need to control the clamping force, preventing damage to the bulb and improving feeding stability. Simultaneously, during bulb installation, the servo dual-axis moving stage 18 drives the bulb mounting plate 19 to move laterally and longitudinally. The lateral and longitudinal movement distance is the distance between the bulbs, facilitating alignment with the suction groove 17 and making it easier to install bulbs one by one, thus improving ease of use.

[0031] In one embodiment, a suction port 16 is provided through the top surface of the suction groove 17, and the suction port 16 is connected to the gas supply pipe 15, so that the suction groove 17 and the gas supply pipe 15 form a through structure.

[0032] In one embodiment, the suction groove 17 is located below the cantilever plate 13, and the bottom opening of the suction groove 17 is arranged vertically downward to facilitate the adsorption and fixation of the light bulb.

[0033] In one embodiment, the gas supply pipe 15 is a 90° bend, and the gas supply pipe 15 passes through the cantilever plate 13 and is fixedly connected to the cantilever plate 13 to facilitate the fixation of the suction groove 17.

[0034] In one embodiment, a guide rod 10 is fixedly installed inside the gantry 7, and the guide rod 10 passes through the cantilever plate 13 and is slidably connected to the cantilever plate 13 to guide the lifting and lowering of the cantilever plate 13.

[0035] In one embodiment, both the first drive motor 5 and the second drive motor 8 are servo motors, and both the first drive motor 5 and the second drive motor 8 are used in conjunction with a servo controller, which facilitates positioning control and is a common control system.

[0036] In one embodiment, the cantilever plate 13 is arranged perpendicularly to the gantry 7, and the cantilever plate 13 adopts a non-deformable structure to avoid deformation causing problems with the verticality of the light bulb.

[0037] In one embodiment, the guide rod 10 is arranged parallel to the lead screw 9 to facilitate the lifting and lowering of the cantilever plate 13.

[0038] Working principle:

[0039] During bulb assembly, the bulb is fed via vibratory feeder 2. Second drive motor 8 drives lead screw 9 to rotate, causing the lifting plate 13 to move downwards, and the suction groove 17 to cover the top surface of the bulb. Then, vacuum pump 14 evacuates air, using negative pressure to secure the bulb. Next, second drive motor 8 drives lead screw 9 to rotate in the opposite direction, pulling out the bulb. First drive motor 5 drives drive gear 6 to rotate, causing driven gear 11 and rotating column 3 to rotate, causing the bulb to flip over and move above bulb mounting plate 19. Finally, second drive motor 8 drives lead screw 9 to rotate, causing lifting plate 13 to move downwards. The bulb is inserted into the bulb mounting plate 19, and then the vacuum pump 14 inflates it, allowing the bulb to separate from the suction groove 17 for feeding. This device uses the suction groove 17 for adsorption feeding, which simplifies the structure and eliminates the need to control the clamping force, preventing damage to the bulb and improving feeding stability. At the same time, during bulb installation, the servo dual-axis moving stage 18 moves the bulb mounting plate 19 horizontally and vertically, with the horizontal and vertical movement distance equal to the distance between bulbs, facilitating alignment with the suction groove 17 and making it easier to install bulbs one by one, thus improving ease of use.
