Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of O-ring installation technology, and in particular to an automatic O-ring dispensing, oiling, detection, and inner hole installation mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] O-rings, also known as O-ring seals or O-ring rubber rings, are widely used sealing components. O-rings are typically made of rubber (such as nitrile rubber and EPDM rubber), possessing good sealing properties, elasticity, and wear resistance. They are suitable for various mechanical equipment, capable of providing a seal under specified temperatures, pressures, and different liquid and gas media, whether stationary or in motion, effectively preventing liquid or gas leakage. O-rings have a simple structure, are easy to install and disassemble, are simple to manufacture, and are widely available, thus finding widespread application in various fields.

[0003] In current production processes, the assembly of O-rings with parts mainly relies on traditional manual operations. This traditional method is not only inefficient and unable to meet production needs, but also often suffers from missed areas during manual lubrication. Missed lubrication not only reduces the seal between the O-ring and the part, increasing the risk of equipment leakage, but also poses a potential threat to the stable operation of the equipment and the overall quality of the product. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides an automatic O-ring dispensing, oiling, detection, and inner hole installation mechanism.

[0014] Furthermore, a short-stroke cylinder is fixedly mounted on the first bracket, and a cover plate is fixedly mounted on the output end of the short-stroke cylinder.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0016] 1. A vibratory feeder and a limiting component are installed. The vibratory feeder can feed O-rings into the limiting groove one by one and accurately, ensuring the accuracy of the feeding, so as to facilitate the subsequent gripping work of the clamping claw. This realizes the automated feeding operation of O-rings, ensures the smooth operation of the production line, and improves the overall production efficiency.

[0017] 2. A transport component and a gripping component are included. The gripping component can precisely grasp the O-rings, while the transport component drives the gripper cylinder to move smoothly, accurately transporting the gripped O-rings to the oil receiving box or above the tooling. This precise gripping of O-rings, along with the accurate transfer of them to the oil receiving box or above the tooling via a transverse electric slide rail, enhances operational accuracy and efficiency.

[0018] 3. An oiling assembly is installed. The coordinated action of the oil nozzle and the motor drives the O-ring to rotate 360° during the oil spraying process, achieving a coating treatment without dead angles. This ensures that the O-ring is fully and evenly sprayed with oil during rotation, improving product quality.

[0019] In summary, this invention achieves automated and orderly O-ring supply through a vibratory feeder and limiting components, ensuring smooth operation of subsequent processes and enhancing production efficiency. The coordinated operation of the transport and gripping components ensures precise gripping and stable transport of the O-rings, delivering them accurately to their designated positions.

[0026] like Figures 1-4 As shown in the figure, this utility model embodiment proposes an automatic O-ring dispensing, oiling, detection, and inner hole installation mechanism, comprising:

[0027] A support platform 1 is provided, on which a vibratory feeder 2 and a clamping device 7 are fixedly installed.

[0028] The limiting component 3 is used to limit the O-ring. The limiting component 3 includes a first bracket 31 and a limiting block 32. The first bracket 31 is fixedly mounted on the support platform 1, and the limiting block 32 is fixedly mounted on the first bracket 31. A limiting groove 33 is opened on the limiting block 32. The limiting groove 33 is used to limit the O-ring. A short-stroke cylinder 35 is fixedly mounted on the first bracket 31. A cover plate 36 is fixedly mounted on the output end of the short-stroke cylinder 35. The cover plate 36 can cover the top of the limiting groove 33 to prevent the O-ring from falling off.

[0029] An optical fiber sensor 34 is embedded in the limiting block 32. The optical fiber sensor 34 is configured to cooperate with the limiting groove 33. The optical fiber sensor 34 is existing technology and can sense whether there is an O-ring in the limiting groove 33.

[0030] The transport component 4 is used to transport O-rings. The transport component 4 includes a horizontal electric slide rail 42, a vertical plate 44, a vertical electric slide rail 45, and a lifting plate 46. A second bracket 41 is fixedly installed on the support platform 1. The horizontal electric slide rail 42 is fixedly installed on the second bracket 41. A slider 43 is slidably installed inside the horizontal electric slide rail 42. The horizontal electric slide rail 42 can control the slider 43 to move. The vertical plate 44 is fixedly installed on the slider 43. The vertical electric slide rail 45 is fixedly installed on the vertical plate 44. The lifting plate 46 is fixedly installed at the output end of the vertical electric slide rail 45. The motor 51 is fixedly installed on the lifting plate 46.

[0031] The gripping assembly 5 includes a motor 51, an electric slip ring 52, and a gripper cylinder 53. The electric slip ring 52 is fixedly installed at the output end of the motor 51, and the gripper cylinder 53 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the electric slip ring 52, so that the motor 51 can drive the gripper cylinder 53 to rotate through the electric slip ring 52. The output end of the gripper cylinder 53 is fixedly provided with a gripping claw 54. The gripper cylinder 53 can drive multiple gripping claws 54 to move outward and unfold simultaneously, or it can drive multiple gripping claws 54 to move inward and retract simultaneously, so as to realize the gripping and releasing of O-rings.

[0032] The oiling assembly 6 is used to apply oil to the O-rings. The oiling assembly 6 includes an oil receiving box 62 and an oil nozzle 64. A third bracket 61 is fixedly installed on the support platform 1. The oil receiving box 62 is fixedly installed on the third bracket 61.

The oil nozzle 64 is connected to an oil pump. The oil pump is used to deliver oil to the oil nozzle 64 and spray it out through the oil nozzle 64.

[0033] The detailed working process of this utility model is as follows:

[0034] 1. The vibratory feeder 2 feeds a single O-ring into the limiting groove 33 on the limiting block 32. After the fiber optic sensor 34 detects the O-ring, the short-stroke cylinder 35 drives the cover plate 36 to retract. The vertical electric slide rail 45 drives the components on the lifting plate 46 to move downward together, so that the gripper 54 is in the O-ring. Then, the gripper cylinder 53 drives multiple grippers 54 to open and grab the O-ring. Then, the vertical electric slide rail 45 drives the components on the lifting plate 46 to move upward together. At the same time, the short-stroke cylinder 35 drives the cover plate 36 to reset and cover the limiting groove 33.

[0035] 2. Then, the horizontal electric slide rail 42 drives the vertical plate 44 to move above the oil receiving box 62 via the slider 43. Subsequently, the vertical electric slide rail 45 drives the components on the lifting plate 46 to move downward together, inserting the O-ring into the oil nozzle 64 inside the oil receiving box 62. Then, the motor 51 drives the gripper cylinder 53 to rotate via the electric slip ring 52, thereby driving the O-ring to rotate 360°. At the same time, the oil nozzle 64 sprays oil onto the rotating O-ring.

[0036] 3. After the oiling is completed, the vertical electric slide rail 45 moves the components on the lifting plate 46 upward together, and the horizontal electric slide rail 42 moves the vertical plate 44 above the fixture through the slider 43. Then, the vertical electric slide rail 45 moves the components on the lifting plate 46 downward together, moving the O-ring to the product's installation position. Then, the gripper cylinder 53 retracts the gripper 54, releases the O-ring, and places it into the product's inner hole. Then, the vertical electric slide rail 45 moves the lifting plate 46 upward to reset, and the horizontal electric slide rail 42 moves the slider 43 to reset. Finally, the camera checks whether the O-ring is oiled or missing. The cam divider drives the rotating disk to rotate one station to perform the oiling and installation operation of the next O-ring, and the cycle continues.
