Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of terminal cutting equipment technology, and in particular to a wire cutting mechanism for terminal assembly equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Terminals are components that connect a battery to an external conductor. In electrical engineering, terminals often refer to wiring terminals, also called wire terminals. Types include single-hole, double-hole, plug-in, and hook types. Materials include silver-plated copper, zinc-plated copper, copper, aluminum, and iron. Their primary function is to transmit electrical signals or conduct electricity.

[0003] During the wire cutting process of terminal assembly equipment, a large amount of waste is generated, such as cut wire ends and debris.

[0004] Traditional waste disposal methods mainly rely on manual periodic cleaning, which has many drawbacks. First, manual cleaning requires machine downtime, which greatly reduces production efficiency. Especially on large-scale, high-efficiency production lines, increased downtime leads to a significant drop in output. Second, manual cleaning cannot guarantee the timeliness and thoroughness of waste removal. During the cutting process, waste may be scattered in various corners of the equipment, not only affecting the normal operation of the equipment, such as jamming transmission components and interfering with sensor operation, but also potentially mixing into the product, causing product quality problems. Moreover, manual cleaning is difficult to completely remove some small waste materials, such as tiny metal shavings or plastic dust. The long-term accumulation of these residual waste materials may damage the precision structure inside the equipment and shorten its service life.

[0005] Therefore, we propose a wire cutting mechanism for terminal assembly equipment. Utility Model Content

The long-term accumulation of these residual waste particles can damage the precision internal structure of the equipment, shortening its lifespan.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0026] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains.

[0027] Example

[0028] like Figure 1-5 As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: a wire cutting mechanism for terminal assembly equipment, including a mechanism base 1, an operating table 2 on the top of the mechanism base 1, a negative pressure suction area 3 inside the mechanism base 1 and the operating table 2, a negative pressure suction component at the bottom of the negative pressure suction area 3, and a push-out component inside the negative pressure suction component. The negative pressure suction component is used to absorb and collect waste and debris during cutting, and the push-out component is used to push out and clean the waste and debris inside the negative pressure suction component.

[0029] When the terminal assembly equipment is cutting wires, the base 1 serves as the basic support structure for the entire cutting mechanism, supporting the operating table 2 above. The operating table 2 is the platform for the actual cutting operation and other related processes. The negative pressure suction area 3 set inside the base 1 and the operating table 2 is designed to work in conjunction with the negative pressure suction component. The negative pressure suction component can use the principle of negative pressure to absorb and collect the waste and debris generated during the cutting process, preventing the waste and debris from scattering and affecting the operation of the equipment and the working environment.

[0030] The ejection component is used to clean the inside of the negative pressure suction component after collecting a certain amount of waste and debris, so that the waste and debris can be discharged smoothly, ensuring that the negative pressure suction component continues to work effectively.

[0031] Based on aerodynamic principles, a low-pressure environment is created in the negative pressure suction zone 3, forming a pressure difference with the external atmospheric pressure, which causes waste and debris to be sucked into the negative pressure suction component under the action of the pressure difference.

[0032] The negative pressure suction assembly includes a collection seat 4, which has several flow channels 5 inside, and a discharge pipe 6 is installed at the bottom of the collection seat 4.

[0033] The collecting seat 4 is the part of the negative pressure suction assembly that directly corresponds to the cutting area. Several flow channels 5 inside it allow the waste material and debris attracted by the negative pressure to pass through smoothly.

[0034] These flow channels 5 are distributed inside the collection seat 4, which increases the channel area for waste and debris to enter the collection seat 4 and improves the collection efficiency. The discharge pipe 6 installed at the bottom of the collection seat 4 is for the subsequent discharge of the collected waste and debris. When the ejection component is working, the waste and debris can be pushed to the designated position through the discharge pipe 6.

[0035] The flow channel 5 utilizes the guiding effect of channels on material transport in fluid mechanics, causing waste materials and debris to move along the flow channel 5 towards the discharge pipe 6 under negative pressure.

[0036] The negative pressure suction assembly also includes a collection box 7, which has a sealing groove 17 on its front side, a door panel 19 inside the sealing groove 17, and a sealing plate 18 on the front side of the door panel 19.

[0037] The collection box 7 is a container for storing the adsorbed waste and debris. The sealing groove 17 on its front, as well as the door panel 19 installed in the sealing groove 17 and the sealing plate 18 on the door panel 19, are designed to ensure that the collection box 7 is in a sealed state during normal operation, preventing negative pressure leakage from affecting the adsorption effect. When it is necessary to clean the waste and debris in the collection box 7, the door panel 19 can be opened for operation.

[0038] The sealing structure is designed to maintain the pressure difference between the inside of the collection box 7 and the negative pressure source, ensuring the normal operation of the negative pressure suction assembly.

[0039] A negative pressure pipe 14 is installed on the right side wall of the collection box 7. A negative pressure pump 15 is provided at the connection of the negative pressure pipe 14. The negative pressure pipe 14 connects the negative pressure pump 15 to the collection box 7, and a barrier net is also provided at the connection between the negative pressure pipe 14 and the collection box 7.

[0040] The negative pressure pipe 14 serves as a channel connecting the collection box 7 and the negative pressure pump 15, transmitting the negative pressure generated by the negative pressure pump 15 into the collection box 7, thereby creating a low-pressure environment within the collection box 7 to achieve the adsorption and collection of waste materials and debris.

[0041] The barrier net installed at the connection between the negative pressure pipe 14 and the collection box 7 can prevent waste and debris from being sucked into the negative pressure pump 15, avoid damage to the negative pressure pump 15, and ensure the normal operation and service life of the negative pressure pump 15.

[0042] When the negative pressure pump 15 is working, it draws out air, which reduces the air pressure in the collection box 7 and adsorbs waste and debris based on the principle of air pressure difference; the barrier screen uses its filtering function to prevent solid waste and debris from entering the negative pressure pump 15.

[0043] The ejection assembly includes a connecting seat 8, which is installed on the top inside the collection box 7. A lead screw 9 is provided at the connection point of the connecting seat 8, and a drive motor 10 is provided on the back side of the lead screw 9. A connecting rod 11 is also provided on the lead screw 9, and a vertical plate 12 is provided at the connection point of the connecting rod 11. An ejection inclined seat 13 is installed on the vertical plate 12.

[0044] The connecting seat 8 provides a stable mounting base for the lead screw 9, enabling it to work reliably inside the collection box 7. The drive motor 10 serves as a power source, driving the lead screw 9 to rotate.

[0045] The connecting rod 11 on the lead screw 9 is rotatably connected to the lead screw 9. When the lead screw 9 rotates, the connecting rod 11 will move linearly along the lead screw 9. The vertical plate 12 is connected to the connecting rod 11 and moves with the connecting rod 11. The ejection inclined seat 13 installed on the vertical plate 12 directly contacts the waste material and debris in the collection box 7. When the vertical plate 12 moves, the ejection inclined seat 13 ejects the waste material and debris from the discharge pipe 6 into the collection box 7.

[0046] The mechanical principle of converting the rotation of the lead screw 9 driven by the motor into linear motion is used to transmit the linear motion to the waste material and debris through the connecting rod 11, the vertical plate 12 and the ejection inclined seat 13, thereby realizing the ejection and cleaning.

[0047] The drive motor 10 can drive the lead screw 9 to rotate. The connecting rod 11 is rotatably connected to the lead screw 9. The vertical plate 12 and the ejector slant seat 13 are designed as a single unit. The lead screw 9 and the connecting seat 8 are connected by bearings.

[0048] The rotational power of the drive motor 10 is transmitted to the lead screw 9 through its output shaft, causing the lead screw 9 to rotate around its own axis. The rotational connection between the connecting rod 11 and the lead screw 9 allows the connecting rod 11 to make linear displacement on the lead screw 9 instead of rotating with the lead screw 9 when the lead screw 9 rotates. The integrated design of the vertical plate 12 and the ejection inclined seat 13 ensures the structural stability and effective force transmission during the ejection process. The bearing connection between the lead screw 9 and the connecting seat 8 reduces the frictional resistance when the lead screw 9 rotates, allowing the lead screw 9 to rotate more smoothly and improving the working efficiency and reliability of the ejection assembly.

[0049] The mechanical transmission principle involves the motor driving the lead screw 9 to rotate and the principle of converting rotational and linear motion, while the tribological principle of bearings reduces motion resistance.

[0050] The base 1 of the mechanism has a placement area 16 on the front and near the left side, and the top of the operating table 2 is also provided with a conveyor belt 20, which is used for the assembly line transport of terminals.

[0051] The placement area 16 on the front of the base 1 can be used to place auxiliary tools and spare materials related to terminal assembly, making it convenient for operators to access them during the work process. The conveyor belt 20 on the top of the worktable 2 is an important part of the entire terminal assembly production line. It can transport the terminals to be cut according to the set speed and route, so that the terminals pass through each processing step in sequence, such as the cutting step, thereby improving production efficiency and automation.

[0052] The conveyor belt 20 uses friction to drive the terminals to move, realizing material transportation in the assembly line production process.

[0053] When using the equipment, first, before the terminal assembly equipment is in operation, check whether the negative pressure suction assembly and the ejection assembly are normal, and close the door 19 of the collection box 7 to ensure a seal.

[0054] Start the negative pressure pump 15 to create a negative pressure environment in the collection box 7 through the negative pressure pipe 14. When the wire is cut, the waste and scrap generated by the cutting are collected in the collection box 7 through the flow groove 5 of the collection seat 4 under the negative pressure of the negative pressure suction zone 3.

[0055] As the work progresses, the amount of waste and debris in collection box 7 gradually increases.

[0056] When cleaning is required, stop the negative pressure pump 15 and start the drive motor 10 of the ejection assembly. The drive motor 10 drives the lead screw 9 to rotate, and the connecting rod 11 on the lead screw 9 drives the vertical plate 12 and the ejection inclined seat 13 to move, pushing the waste and debris in the collection box 7 out of the collection box 7 through the discharge pipe 6. After the cleaning work is completed, turn off the ejection assembly and start the negative pressure pump 15 again. The equipment continues to perform wire cutting and waste collection for terminal assembly.

[0057] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
