[0036] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the directional descriptions, such as up, down, front, back, left, right, etc., indicate the directional or positional relationship based on the directional or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0037] In the description of this utility model, the use of "first" and "second" is only for the purpose of distinguishing technical features and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features or the order of the technical features.

[0038] In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly defined, terms such as "setting," "installation," and "connection" should be interpreted broadly, and those skilled in the art can reasonably determine the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model in conjunction with the specific content of the technical solution.

[0039] Reference Figure 1 This is a plug assembled by a plug assembly device. It includes a connector 10, a plug holder 20, and a pin 30. The connector 10 has two wires 11. The plug holder 20 has a limiting hole for the pin 30 to be inserted. The pin 30 has two protrusions, each with a connection hole for the wires 11 to be inserted. The metal plate of the pin 30 passes through the connection hole. When the wires 11 are inserted into the connection hole, they abut against the metal plate, thereby enabling electrical conduction between the metal plate and the wires 11.

[0040] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 This utility model discloses a plug assembly device, including: a frame 100 and a connector feeding device 200, a plug feeding device 300, a pressing device 400, a plug-in device 500, and a unloading device 600, all disposed on the frame 100. The frame 100 is provided with a collection groove 110 and a rotatable turntable 120. The outer ring of the turntable 120 is provided with a plurality of connector clamps 121, and the turntable 120 is provided with plug clamps 1 on the inner side of all connector clamps 121. 22; The connector feeding device 200, the plug feeding device 300, the pressing device 400, the plugging device 500, and the unloading device 600 are arranged sequentially around the turntable 120; the connector feeding device 200 is used to feed the connector 10 to the connector clamp 121; the plug feeding device 300 is used to feed the plug 20 to the plug clamp 122; the pressing device 400 is used to press the pin 30 onto the wire 11 of the connector 10, and the pin 30 floats outside the turntable 120.

[0041] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 The plug-in device 500 includes a connector transport mechanism 510, a pin transport mechanism 520, and a lifting pressure head 530. The connector transport mechanism 510 is used to lift the connector 10 on the connector clamp 121 and drive the connector 10 to move in the direction of the rotation axis of the turntable 120. The pin transport mechanism 520 is used to grab the pin 30, drive the pin 30 to move in the direction of the rotation axis of the turntable 120, and rotate the pin 30 so that the pin 30 faces downward and is directly opposite the limiting hole of the plug 20 on the plug clamp 122. The pressure head 530 moves down to insert the pin 30 into the limiting hole. The unloading device 600 is used to grab the plug 20 on the plug clamp 122 and transfer the plug 20 to the collection tank 110.

[0042] Understandably, when the connector 10 is placed on the connector clamp 121, the wire 11 of the connector 10 extends to the outside of the turntable 120. A rotary drive mechanism is provided on the frame 100, and the turntable 120 is rotatably mounted on the frame 100, with its rotation axis parallel to the vertical direction. The output end of the rotary drive mechanism is connected to the turntable 120, driving the turntable 120 to rotate. The central angles of any two adjacent connector clamps 121 are equal, and the connector clamps 121 and plug clamps 122 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence.

[0043] When the turntable 120 rotates carrying multiple connector clamps 121 and multiple plug clamps 122, the connector clamps 121 and plug clamps 122 sequentially pass through the connector feeding device 200, the plug feeding device 300, the pressing device 400, the plugging device 500, and the unloading device 600. When the connector clamps 121 and plug clamps 122 move to the position of the corresponding connector feeding device 200, the connector feeding device 200 feeds the connector 10 to the connector clamp 121; when the connector clamps 121 and plug clamps 122 move to the position of the corresponding plug feeding device 300, the plug feeding device 300 feeds the plug 20 to the plug clamp 122; when the connector clamps 121 and plug clamps 122 move to the position of the corresponding pressing device 400, the pressing device 400 presses the pin 30 onto the wire 11 of the connector 10.

[0044] When the connector clamp 121 and the plug clamp 122 move to the position of the corresponding plug-in device 500, the connector transport mechanism 510 lifts the connector 10 on the connector clamp 121 and drives the connector 10 to move in the direction of the rotation axis of the turntable 120, so that there is no obstruction above the plug clamp 122, and the connector transport mechanism 510 and the connector 10 avoid obstructing the movement of the pin transport mechanism 520. The pin transport mechanism 520 picks up the pin 30, and then drives the pin 30 to move in the direction of the rotation axis of the turntable 120 and rotates the pin 30 so that the pin 30 faces down and is directly aligned with the limiting hole of the plug 20 on the plug clamp 122. Then the pressure head 530 moves down to insert the pin 30 into the limiting hole, completing the assembly of the plug and obtaining the required plug. The plug 20 of the plug is limited on the plug clamp 122, that is, the plug is limited on the plug clamp 122.

[0045] When the connector clamp 121 and the plug clamp 122 move to the position of the corresponding unloading device 600, the unloading device 600 will grab the plug 20 on the plug clamp 122 and transfer the plug 20 to the collection tank 110, that is, grab the plug and transfer the plug to the collection tank 110, thus completing the unloading of the plug.

[0046] Plug assembly equipment replaces manual plug assembly, which is more efficient and ensures quality, saves labor costs, eliminates the need for multiple devices, saves equipment costs and production space.

[0047] It is important to understand that after the pin 30 is pressed together with the wire 11, that is, after the pin 30 is connected to the wire 11, because the wire 11 is not a rigid part and extends outside the turntable 120, the pin 30 will hang down outside the turntable 120. The position of the pin 30 is not fixed. In order for the pin carrying mechanism 520 to accurately pick up the pin 30 each time, the pin 30 needs to be positioned in a fixed position.

[0048] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 6 In some embodiments, the insertion device 500 further includes a pin positioning mechanism 540, which is disposed on the frame 100 and located outside the turntable 120. The pin positioning mechanism 540 is used to position and clamp the pin 30 so that the pin transport mechanism 520 can clamp the pin 30. When the pin 30 is fixed in a fixed position by the pin positioning mechanism 540, the posture of the pin 30 is fixed, and the pin transport mechanism 520 can accurately clamp the corresponding area of ​​the pin 30 from the fixed position.

[0049] In some embodiments, the pin positioning mechanism 540 includes a first lifting drive mechanism 541 and a first pin gripper 542. The first lifting drive mechanism 541 is mounted on the frame 100 and located outside the turntable 120. The output end of the first lifting drive mechanism 541 is connected to the first pin gripper 542. The first pin gripper 542 has two L-shaped limiting arms that can be close to each other and far apart from each other. Initially, the first lifting drive mechanism 541 drives the first pin gripper 542 to move downward, so that the first pin gripper 542 and the two L-shaped limiting arms are in a low position and below the turntable 120. When the turntable 120 drives the connecting seat clamp 121 to move to a position relative to the plug-in device 500, the wire 11 of the connecting seat 10 on the connecting seat clamp 121 and the pin 30 connected to the wire 11 move to the upper part between the two L-shaped limiting arms.

[0050] Then, the first lifting drive mechanism 541 drives the first pin gripper 542 to rise so that the two L-shaped limiting arms lift the pin 30 floating outside the turntable 120. The first pin gripper 542 drives the two L-shaped limiting arms to move closer to each other to horizontally limit the pin 30.

[0051] Reference Figure 6 In some embodiments, the pin positioning mechanism 540 further includes a second lifting drive mechanism 543 and a pressing block 544. The output end of the second lifting drive mechanism 543 is connected to the pressing block 544. Initially, the pressing block 544 is above the first pin gripper 542 and higher than the connecting seat clamp 121 on the turntable 120. The second lifting drive mechanism 543 drives the pressing block 544 to move down, and the pressing block 544 presses the pin 30 against the two L-shaped limiting arms, thereby completely fixing the pin 30 in a fixed position. At this time, the end of the pin 30 that is not connected to the wire 11 is facing away from the turntable 120, that is, the length direction of the pin 30 is parallel to the horizontal plane, and the orientation of the pin 30 is horizontal, so that the pin transport mechanism 520 can accurately clamp the corresponding area of ​​the pin 30, avoiding the pin transport mechanism 520 being unable to clamp the pin 30 due to the non-fixed position of the pin 30.

[0052] It is conceivable that the first lifting drive mechanism 541 is mounted on the frame 100. The frame 100 is provided with a first bracket, and the second lifting drive mechanism 543 is mounted on the first bracket. The second lifting drive mechanism 543 is connected to the frame 100 through the first bracket.

[0053] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 In some embodiments, the plug-in device 500 further includes a three-axis drive mechanism 550 disposed on the frame 100. The output end of the three-axis drive mechanism 550 can move in the front-back, left-right and up-down directions, that is, the output end of the three-axis drive mechanism 550 can move to any position within a certain spatial range.

[0054] The connecting seat transport mechanism 510 includes a third lifting drive mechanism 511 and a connecting seat gripper 512 disposed on the output end of the third lifting drive mechanism 511. The connecting seat gripper 512 is disposed downward. The output end of the three-axis drive mechanism 550 is connected to the third lifting drive mechanism 511. The three-axis drive mechanism 550 drives the connecting seat gripper 512 to move in space. When the connecting seat gripper 512 moves above the connecting seat 10 of the connecting seat fixture 121, the third lifting drive mechanism 511 drives the connecting seat gripper 512 to move downward, so that the connecting seat gripper 512 can clamp the connecting seat 10 on the connecting seat fixture 121. Then, the third lifting drive mechanism 511 drives the connecting seat gripper 512 to move upward, so that the connecting seat gripper 512 can grasp the connecting seat 10 on the connecting seat fixture 121. Then, the three-axis drive mechanism 550 drives the connecting seat transport mechanism 510 and the connecting seat 10 on the connecting seat transport mechanism 510 to move in the direction of the rotation axis of the turntable 120.

[0055] In some embodiments, the insertion device 500 further includes a three-axis drive mechanism 550, and the pin transport mechanism 520 includes a support plate 521 and a second pin gripper 522 rotatably mounted on the support plate 521. The rotation axis of the second pin gripper 522 is parallel to the horizontal plane. The output end of the three-axis drive mechanism 550 is connected to the support plate 521. The three-axis drive mechanism 550 is used to drive the support plate 521 and the second pin gripper 522 to move in space so that the second pin gripper 522 can clamp the pin 30. The three-axis drive mechanism 550 can synchronously drive the connecting seat transport mechanism 510 and the pin transport mechanism 520 to move. The arrangement of the support plate 521 allows the connecting seat gripper 512 and the second pin gripper 522 to be in different positions, avoiding interference between the connecting seat gripper 512 and the second pin gripper 522.

[0056] Reference Figure 5 In some embodiments, the pin handling mechanism 520 further includes a first horizontal drive mechanism 523 mounted on a support plate 521. The output end of the first horizontal drive mechanism 523 is connected to a rack 524, and the second pin clamp 522 is connected to a gear 525. The rack 524 and gear 525 mesh with each other. The first horizontal drive mechanism 523 drives the rack 524 to move, and the rack 524 drives the gear 525 to rotate, thus achieving the rotation of the gear 525 and the second pin clamp 522. The rotation of the second pin clamp 522 changes the position of its two clamping arms. When the two clamping arms are positioned one above the other, they can clamp the pins 30 on the two L-shaped limiting arms. When the first horizontal drive mechanism 523 indirectly drives the second pin clamp 522 to rotate, the two clamping arms of the second pin clamp 522 become aligned on the same plane, and the pin 30 clamped by the two clamping arms faces downwards.

[0057] The three-axis drive mechanism 550 drives the second pin clamp 522 to move in space, so as to insert the pin 30 on the pin positioning mechanism 540 into the limiting hole of the plug socket 20 on the plug socket clamp 122.

[0058] Reference Figure 4 In some embodiments, the plug-in device 500 further includes a fourth lifting drive mechanism 560. The output end of the fourth lifting drive mechanism 560 is connected to the pressure head 530. Initially, the fourth lifting drive mechanism 560 drives the pressure head 530 to move upward, so that the pressure head 530 is in a high position, avoiding interference of the pressure head 530 with the movement of the pin transport mechanism 520 and the connector transport mechanism 510. After the second pin clamp 522 inserts the pin 30 into the limiting hole of the plug socket 20 on the plug socket clamp 122, the fourth lifting drive mechanism 560 drives the pressure head 530 to move downward. The pressure head 530 will abut the pin 30 on the second pin clamp 522 and drive the pin 30 to insert into the limiting hole of the plug socket 20.

[0059] In this embodiment, the connector clamp 121 can simultaneously clamp two connectors 10, and the plug clamp 122 can simultaneously clamp two plugs 20. The frame 100 is provided with two second supports, each of which is equipped with a three-axis drive mechanism 550. Each three-axis drive mechanism 550 has a pin transport mechanism 520 and a connector transport mechanism 510 connected to its output end. There are two first pin grippers 542 and two pressing blocks 544. The frame 100 is provided with a third support, which is equipped with two fourth lifting drive mechanisms 560. Each fourth lifting drive mechanism 560 has a pressure head 530 connected to its output end.

[0060] Reference Figure 7 In some embodiments, the pressing device 400 includes a pad 410, a fifth lifting drive mechanism 420, a pressing head 430, and a pin feeding mechanism 440. The pad 410 is provided with a positioning groove. The pin feeding mechanism 440 is used to feed the pins 30 one by one into the positioning groove. The output end of the fifth lifting drive mechanism 420 is connected to the pressing head 430, which is located above the pad 410.

[0061] The connector clamp 121 is slidably mounted on the turntable 120. A second horizontal drive mechanism is provided on the frame 100. The second horizontal drive mechanism is used to drive the connector clamp 121 to move towards the pad block 410 so that the wire 11 of the connector 10 on the connector clamp 121 is inserted into the connection hole of the pin.

[0062] When the wire 11 is inserted into the connection hole of the pin, the fifth lifting drive mechanism 420 drives the pressing head 430 to press down on the side wall of the connection hole, so that the side wall of the connection hole deforms and clamps the wire 11, thus completing the pressing of the wire 11 and the pin 30.

[0063] The pin feeding mechanism 440 includes guide rails, a third horizontal drive mechanism, and a vibratory feeder, all mounted on the frame 100. The guide rails have sliding grooves for the pins 30 to slide through. One end of the sliding groove connects to a positioning groove. A push block is located within the sliding groove and is connected to the output end of the third horizontal drive mechanism. The third horizontal drive mechanism pushes the push block to move within the sliding groove. The output end of the vibratory feeder is connected to the middle section of the guide rails. The vibratory feeder stores multiple pins 30 and feeds them one by one into the sliding groove in an orientation away from the turntable 120. Initially, the push block is at the other end of the sliding groove. When the vibratory feeder feeds the pins 30 into the middle section of the sliding groove, the third horizontal drive mechanism drives the push block to move towards the pad block 410, thus pushing the pins 30 into the positioning groove of the pad block 410.

[0064] Reference Figure 7 The pressing device 400 also includes a sixth lifting drive mechanism 450 and a stop block 451 disposed on the output end of the sixth lifting drive mechanism 450. The sixth lifting drive mechanism 450 drives the stop block 451 to rise and fall. The stop block 451 is attached to the side of the pad block 410 facing the turntable 120. When the sixth lifting drive mechanism 450 drives the stop block 451 to rise to the high position, the stop block 451 acts to block the pin 30, preventing the pin 30 from falling off the pad block 410. The stop block 451 is provided with a guide hole. One end of the guide hole faces the direction of the turntable 120, and the other end of the guide hole faces the connection hole of the pin 30 on the positioning groove. The diameter of the guide hole gradually decreases from one end to the other end. The diameter of the other end of the guide hole is equal to the diameter of the wire 11. The guide hole serves to guide the wire 11 into the connecting block.

[0065] Reference Figure 2 In some embodiments, the plug assembly equipment also includes an electrical inspection device 700 and a defective product unloading device, both mounted on the frame 100. The electrical inspection device 700 is located between the crimping device 400 and the plugging device 500. After the crimping device 400 crimps the wire 11 and the pin 30 together, the electrical inspection device 700 detects whether the wire 11 and the pin 30 are conductive. If the wire 11 and the pin 30 are conductive, it proves that the wire 11 and the pin 30 are qualified products after crimping. If the wire 11 and the pin 30 are not conductive, it proves that the wire 11 and the pin 30 are unqualified products after crimping. Qualified products can proceed to the subsequent step of inserting the pin 30 into the limiting hole of the plug socket 20. Unqualified products do not proceed to the subsequent step of inserting the pin 30 into the limiting hole of the plug socket 20. The defective products are removed by the defective product unloading device.
