[0019] The motor fixing plate 4 and the fixing plate of the frame body 1 are slidingly connected through the guide rail 2.

[0020] The output shaft of each motor 5 is provided with a speed reducer 6 corresponding to the split wrench 8.

[0021] The fixing mechanism comprises a connecting rod big end fixing block 10 and a connecting rod small end fixing pin 11, which are used for fixing the position of the connecting rod, keeping the position of the connecting rod bolt corresponding to the position of the split wrench 8, and separating the connecting rod body from the connecting rod cover after the bolt is completely disassembled.

[0022] The lower end of the fixed plate of the frame body 1 is fixedly connected with the cylinder body of the horizontal split cylinder 13, the piston rod of the split cylinder 13 is fixedly connected with a movable block, the movable block is slidingly connected with the fixed plate of the frame body 1, the upper end of the movable block is fixedly connected with a connecting rod big end disassembling block 9, and the connecting rod big end disassembling block 9 is correspondingly arranged with the connecting rod big end fixing block 10.

[0023] The side of the movable block is fixedly connected with a material receiving box 17, and the material receiving box 17 is located between the movable block and the split wrench 8. The rotation time of the motor and the action time of the split cylinder are accurately calculated, so that the bolt is completely disassembled, the connecting rod cover and the connecting rod body are smoothly separated, the disassembled connecting rod body is kept on the fixing mechanism, and the connecting rod cover and the bolt fall into the material receiving box, which is convenient for subsequent processing.

[0024] The control mechanism is mainly used for controlling the execution mechanism to disassemble the connecting rod bolt, realizes accurate control of the execution mechanism, and comprises a switch 12 and a PLC module 16.

[0025] The working process of the utility model is as follows:

[0026] 1, the equipment needs to be connected with 220V power supply and 0.4-0.6Mpa compressed air before use;

[0027] 2, the connecting rod (part) is placed on the fixing mechanism, the connecting rod small end corresponds to the connecting rod small end fixing pin 11 of the equipment, the connecting rod big end corresponds to the connecting rod big end fixing block 10 of the equipment, and the two hands are pressed simultaneously after confirming that the connecting rod is stable.

[0028] 3, after the PLC module 16 receives the start instruction transmitted by the switch 12, the preset program is started to be executed, the action cylinder 3 of the execution mechanism moves to the connecting rod position, the position sensor 14 sends a position signal after reaching the position, and the PLC module 16 receives the feedback signal and controls the motor 5 to rotate counterclockwise.

[0029] 4. The rotation of motor 5 drives the disassembly wrench 8 to output torque to disassemble the connecting rod bolt from the connecting rod. The program presets the rotation time of motor 5, which is 0.3 seconds longer than the time after all the threads of the connecting rod bolt are loosened, to ensure that the connecting rod bolt can be completely disassembled from the connecting rod.

[0030] 5. After the motor rotation command time is reached, the motor 5 stops rotating. The PLC module 16 sends a return command to the actuating cylinder 3. The actuating cylinder 3 drives the actuator back to its original position. At the same time, the PLC module 16 sends an action command to the disassembly cylinder 13 of the fixed mechanism. The disassembly cylinder 13 drives the disassembly block (9) of the large end of the connecting rod to move forward to disassemble the connecting rod cover and the connecting rod body. The duration is 2 seconds. Then it returns to its original position, and the entire work cycle ends.

[0031] 6. After disassembly, the connecting rod remains stationary on the fixed mechanism. The connecting rod cover and bolts fall into the receiving box. The operator can then remove the disassembled connecting rod from the equipment and place it at the assembly station.

[0032] This utility model has a reasonable overall structure and layout, with clearly defined functional areas, facilitating maintenance and repair. Its moderate overall size ensures sufficient operating space without occupying excessive area.

[0033] This invention achieves rapid and safe disassembly of connecting rod bolts through a rational structural design and efficient automated control. The intelligence of the control mechanism, the efficiency of the execution mechanism, and the reliability of the fixing mechanism enable this invention to perform excellently in practical applications, improving production efficiency and safety. In the future, further optimization of the control algorithm and the addition of more sensors can enhance the equipment's intelligence and adaptability, making it suitable for bolt disassembly before connecting rod assembly on engine assembly lines. By writing a dedicated PLC program to control the movement of mechanical components, the disassembly of connecting rod bolts and the separation of the connecting rod body and connecting rod cap are achieved, replacing the original manual disassembly.
