Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of lid closing mechanism technology, specifically to a flexible lid closing mechanism with a flatness detection function. Background Technology

[0002] After the components in the electronic caliper of the electronic parking brake system are installed, the top cover needs to be closed, which requires a cover closing mechanism. However, existing cover closing mechanisms lack a mechanism for leveling after closing, or the leveling detection mechanism they carry is complex, cumbersome, and extremely inconvenient to use.

[0003] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a flexible lid-closing mechanism with a flatness detection function to solve the problem of inconvenient detection after the lid is assembled. Utility Model Content

[0004] This utility model addresses the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing a flexible lid-closing mechanism with a flatness detection function, thus solving the problem of inconvenient detection after the lid is assembled.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A flexible lid closing mechanism with a flatness detection function is characterized by comprising a support mechanism, a mounting base, a transverse cylinder, a moving plate, a lid mounting mechanism, and a flatness detection mechanism. The support mechanism is equipped with a mounting base, and the moving plate is slidably connected to the mounting base laterally. The transverse cylinder connects to and drives the moving plate to slide laterally on the mounting base. The moving plate is equipped with the lid mounting mechanism and the flatness detection mechanism. The lid mounting mechanism connects to and drives the lid to press vertically downwards for installation. The flatness detection mechanism includes three sensors and a second vertical cylinder. The second vertical cylinder is vertically mounted on the moving plate. The moving end of the second vertical cylinder connects to three vertically arranged and equally spaced sensors via a second connecting frame. The second vertical cylinder drives the three sensors to press the lid back down and detect the flatness.

[0007] To optimize the above technical solution, the specific measures also include:

[0008] Furthermore, the upper cover mounting mechanism includes a first vertical cylinder, a first connecting frame, and a suction cup mechanism. The first vertical cylinder is vertically mounted on the moving plate, and the moving end of the first vertical cylinder is connected to a horizontal pressure plate through the first connecting frame. The lower end face of the pressure plate is equipped with a suction cup mechanism for adsorbing the upper cover.

[0009] Furthermore, the suction cup mechanism is provided in three parts, and the three suction cup mechanisms are evenly distributed in an array on the lower end face of the pressure plate.

[0010] Furthermore, the upper cover mounting mechanism also includes a first changing cylinder, the moving end of the first vertical cylinder is connected to the first changing cylinder, and the moving end of the first changing cylinder is connected to the first connecting frame. The first changing cylinder is used to drive the first connecting frame to move closer to or away from the first vertical cylinder in the horizontal direction.

[0011] Furthermore, the leveling detection mechanism also includes a second changing cylinder. The moving end of the second vertical cylinder is connected to the second changing cylinder and is connected to the second connecting frame through the moving end of the second changing cylinder. The second changing cylinder is used to drive the second connecting frame to move closer to or away from the second vertical cylinder in the horizontal direction.

[0012] Furthermore, the mounting and testing mechanism also includes a rotary cylinder and a gripper cylinder. The rotary cylinder is mounted on the lower end of the second changing cylinder, and the moving end of the rotary cylinder is connected to the gripper cylinder. The rotary cylinder is used to drive the gripper cylinder to rotate. The gripper cylinder is provided with an openable and closable gripper, and the gripper cylinder is used to drive the gripper to move.

[0013] Furthermore, the mounting detection mechanism also includes a third connecting frame and pressure rods. The moving end of the second vertical cylinder is also connected to several vertically arranged downward pressure rods through the third connecting frame. The lowest horizontal height of the pressure rods is not lower than the lowest horizontal height of the sensor.

[0014] Furthermore, the third connecting frame is arranged in a ring around the sensor, and at least three pressure rods are provided, with an array of pressure rods arranged on the third connecting frame.

[0015] Furthermore, the mounting base is provided with limiting mechanisms on both sides of the movable plate to restrict the movement range of the movable plate.

[0016] Furthermore, the support mechanism includes a connecting block, a support column, and a support base. The connecting block is installed on the side of the mounting base away from the movable plate, and the lower end of the connecting block is connected to the support base via the support column.

[0017] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0018] This utility model supports the mounting base and its structure through a support mechanism. A horizontal moving plate is driven by a transverse cylinder to slide laterally on the mounting base. It can be moved to the position where the top cover mounting mechanism carries the top cover to be installed. After the top cover is installed by the top cover mounting mechanism, the horizontal moving cylinder drives the moving plate to the position where the leveling detection mechanism is located on the installed top cover. Then, a second vertical cylinder drives three vertically arranged and equally spaced array sensors to move down synchronously. In this way, the three sensors can be used to detect the levelness of the top cover after it is assembled to determine whether the product is assembled properly. The three sensors can also be used to simultaneously press the top cover to provide a certain means of repairing the top cover that is not assembled properly.

[0019] This invention features a transverse cylinder that drives the entire mechanism to move laterally, and a first vertical cylinder that drives a suction cup mechanism to pick up the material. In the assembly process, both the suction cup mechanism and the leveling detection mechanism have changing cylinders to accommodate the assembly and testing of different models of the same product. The pressure rod and third connecting frame in this invention provide appropriate pressure on the top cover while preventing the sensor from descending excessively and causing damage. During use, when the leveling detection mechanism detects that the assembly does not meet requirements, a rotary cylinder drives a gripper cylinder to pick up the product and rotate it into the NG box for easy subsequent installation.

[0023] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0024] As attached Figure 1As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a flexible cover closing mechanism with a flatness detection function, comprising a support mechanism, a mounting base 2, a transverse cylinder 1, a moving plate 4, a cover mounting mechanism, and a flatness detection mechanism. The support mechanism is equipped with the mounting base 2, and the moving plate 4 is slidably connected to the mounting base 2. The transverse cylinder 1 is used to connect to and drive the moving plate 4 to slide laterally on the mounting base 2. The moving plate 4 is equipped with the cover mounting mechanism and the flatness detection mechanism. The cover mounting mechanism is used to connect to and drive the cover to press down vertically for installation and to move up and retract after installation. The flatness detection mechanism includes three sensors 16 and a second vertical cylinder 8. The second vertical cylinder 8 is vertically mounted on the moving plate 4. The moving end of the second vertical cylinder 8 is connected to three vertically arranged and equally spaced sensors 16 through a second connecting frame 15. The second vertical cylinder 8 is used to drive the three sensors 16 to press the cover back and detect the flatness.

[0025] This utility model supports the mounting base 2 and its structure through a support mechanism. The moving plate 4 is driven by the transverse cylinder 1 to slide laterally on the mounting base 2. It can be moved to the position where the top cover mounting mechanism carries the top cover to be installed. After the top cover is installed by the top cover mounting mechanism, the moving plate 4 is driven by the transverse cylinder 1 to move to the position where the leveling detection mechanism is located at the installed top cover. The second vertical cylinder 8 drives three vertically arranged and equally spaced array sensors 16 to move down synchronously. In this way, the three sensors 16 can be used to detect the levelness of the top cover after it is assembled to determine whether the product is assembled properly. The three sensors 16 can also be used to simultaneously press the top cover to provide a certain means of repair for top covers that are not assembled properly.

[0026] In another specific embodiment based on the above, the top cover mounting mechanism includes a first vertical cylinder 5, a first connecting frame 7, and a suction cup mechanism 6. The first vertical cylinder 5 is vertically mounted on the moving plate 4. The moving end of the first vertical cylinder 5 is connected to a horizontal pressure plate through the first connecting frame 7. The lower end face of the pressure plate is equipped with a suction cup mechanism 6 for adsorbing the top cover. Thus, the suction cup mechanism 6 can be driven to move up and down by the first vertical cylinder 5, and the suction cup mechanism 6 can adsorb and release the top cover as needed.

[0027] In a further specific embodiment based on the above, three suction cup mechanisms 6 are provided, and the three suction cup mechanisms 6 are evenly distributed in an array on the lower end face of the pressure plate. This facilitates the flatness of the upper cover during installation.

[0028] In a further specific embodiment based on the above, the top cover mounting mechanism further includes a first changing cylinder. The moving end of the first vertical cylinder 5 is connected to the first changing cylinder, and the moving end of the first changing cylinder is connected to the first connecting frame 7. The first changing cylinder is used to drive the first connecting frame 7 to move horizontally closer to or away from the first vertical cylinder 5. Thus, during installation, the position of the top cover can be adjusted as needed by the coordinated movement of the transverse cylinder 1 and the first changing cylinder.

[0029] As attached Figure 2 As shown, in another specific embodiment based on the above, the leveling detection mechanism further includes a second changing cylinder 12. The moving end of the second vertical cylinder 8 is connected to the second changing cylinder 12, and the moving end of the second changing cylinder 12 is connected to the second connecting frame 15. The second changing cylinder 12 is used to drive the second connecting frame 15 to move closer to or further away from the second vertical cylinder 8 in the horizontal direction. Thus, during detection, the position of the sensor 16 can be adjusted as needed according to the position of the top cover after installation, through the cooperation of the transverse cylinder 1 and the second changing cylinder 12.

[0030] In a further specific embodiment based on the above, the leveling detection mechanism further includes a rotary cylinder 13 and a gripper cylinder 14. The rotary cylinder 13 is mounted on the lower end of the second changing cylinder 12, and the moving end of the rotary cylinder 13 is connected to the gripper cylinder 14. The rotary cylinder 13 drives the gripper cylinder 14 to rotate. The gripper cylinder 14 is equipped with openable and closable grippers and is used to drive the grippers to hold the product. Thus, in use, if a top cover fails the inspection, the second vertical cylinder 8 drives the gripper cylinder 14 to a designated position, and the gripper cylinder 14 drives the grippers to hold the product, which is then removed by the rotary cylinder 13 for subsequent installation.

[0031] In another specific embodiment based on the above, the leveling detection mechanism further includes a third connecting frame 17 and pressure rods 18. The moving end of the second vertical cylinder 8 is also connected to several vertically arranged downward pressure rods 18 through the third connecting frame 17. The lowest horizontal height of the pressure rods 18 is not lower than the lowest horizontal height of the detection end of the sensor 16. Thus, in use, the sensor 16 can be used for detection, and the pressure rods 18 can be used for re-pressure. If the re-pressure by the pressure rods 18 is still unqualified, the sensor 16 will collect data and display it.

[0032] In a further specific embodiment based on the above, the third connecting frame 17 is arranged in a ring around the sensor 16, and at least three pressure rods 18 are provided, with an array of pressure rods 18 arranged on the third connecting frame 17. This ensures the repressurization effect of the pressure rods 18.

[0033] In another specific embodiment based on the above, the mounting base 2 is provided with limiting mechanisms 3 on both sides of the movable plate 4 to limit the movement range of the movable plate 4. In this solution, the limiting mechanism 3 may be equipped with a buffer structure to buffer the impact during the movement of the movable plate 4, or a sensor electrically connected to the transverse cylinder 1 may be added to control the drive of the transverse cylinder 1.

[0034] In another specific embodiment based on the above, the support mechanism includes a connecting block 9, a support column 10 and a support base 11. The connecting block 9 is installed on the side of the mounting base 2 away from the movable plate 4, and the lower end of the connecting block 9 is connected to the support base 11 through the support column 10.

[0035] One specific embodiment of this utility model is as follows:

[0036] The mechanism is installed parallel to the production line. After the product is in place, the suction cup mechanism 6, driven by the horizontal cylinder 1 and the first vertical cylinder 5, completes the assembly of the product's top cover. The suction cup mechanism 6 rises, and the horizontal cylinder 1 and the second vertical cylinder 8 drive the leveling detection mechanism to reach above the product and then descend. Three sensors 16 measure the height data to detect the levelness after assembly and determine whether the product is properly assembled. If the measurement result does not meet the requirements, the rotary cylinder 13 drives the gripper cylinder 14 to clamp the product and rotate it to the unqualified unloading area. If the measurement result meets the requirements, the leveling detection mechanism rises and waits for the next inspection.

[0037] In this invention, the transverse cylinder 1 drives the entire mechanism to move laterally, and the first vertical cylinder 5 drives the material-picking suction cup mechanism 6 to complete the material picking and assembly steps. Both the suction cup mechanism 6 and the assembly leveling detection mechanism have a changing cylinder along the Y-axis, which can meet the assembly and testing of different models of the same type of products.

[0038] After the assembly is completed, the leveling detection mechanism descends and comes into contact with the assembled product. Three sensors 16 vertically detect the height difference and levelness to determine whether the assembly requirements are met.

[0039] The design of the pressure rod 18 and the third connecting bracket 17 in this invention can both properly press down on the top cover and prevent the sensor 16 from falling too low and causing damage.

[0040] When this utility model is in use, if the assembly inspection mechanism detects that the assembly does not meet the requirements (NG), the rotary cylinder 13 drives the gripper cylinder 14 to grip the product and rotate it into the NG box for easy subsequent installation.

[0041] It should be noted that the terms such as "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "front", and "back" used in this utility model are only for clarity of description and are not intended to limit the scope of implementation of this utility model. Changes or adjustments to their relative relationships, without substantially altering the technical content, should also be considered as within the scope of implementation of this utility model.

[0042] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model. The protection scope of this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. All technical solutions falling within the scope of this utility model's concept are within its protection scope. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, any improvements and modifications made without departing from the principle of this utility model should be considered within its protection scope.
