Therefore, the entire process no longer requires multiple operators, thus significantly saving labor costs. Furthermore, because the fixtures come in multiple forms, glue application, screw plate loading, welding, and unloading can be completed simultaneously while the base plate is being loaded, greatly improving the production efficiency of the screw plate assembly.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0046] like Figures 1-5 As shown, this embodiment proposes an automatic feeding, dispensing, and welding device for screw thread assemblies, comprising:

[0047] Rack 1;

[0048] Steering assembly 2 is located on the side of frame 1. The steering assembly includes indexing plate 21 and steering drive 22. Indexing plate 21 is located on the output end of steering drive 22.

[0049] The fixture 3 consists of multiple fixtures evenly distributed on the indexing plate 21. The fixture 3 is used to place the base plate and the screw plate.

[0050] The bottom plate loading assembly 4 includes a bottom plate hopper 41, a bottom plate loading module 42, and a bottom plate suction component 43. The bottom plate hopper 41 is located at the bottom of the frame 1. The bottom plate loading module 42 is located on the frame 1 and above the bottom plate hopper 41. The bottom plate suction component 43 is located at the output end of the bottom plate loading module 42. The bottom plate suction component 43 uses the bottom plate loading module 42 to place the bottom plate in the bottom plate hopper 41 onto the corresponding fixture 3.

[0051] The glue application assembly 5 includes a glue application module 51 and a glue application gun 52. The glue application module 51 is mounted on the frame 1, and the glue application gun 52 is mounted on the output end of the glue application module 51. The glue application gun 52 applies a layer of glue to the base plate in the corresponding fixture 3 with the help of the glue application module 51.

[0052] The screw plate loading assembly 6 includes a screw plate hopper 61, a screw plate loading module 62, and a screw plate suction component 63. The screw plate hopper 61 is located at the bottom of the frame 1, the screw plate loading module 62 is located on the frame 1 and above the screw plate hopper 61, and the screw plate suction component 63 is located at the output end of the screw plate loading module 62. The screw plate suction component 63 uses the screw plate loading module 62 to place the screw plates in the screw plate hopper 61 onto the corresponding fixture 3.

[0053] Welding machine 7 is set on the side of indexing plate 21 and is used to weld the screw plate in the corresponding fixture 3 to the bottom plate;

[0054] The unloading assembly 8 includes an unloading module 81 and an unloading adsorption component 82. The unloading module 81 is mounted on the welding machine 7, and the unloading adsorption component 82 is mounted on the output end of the unloading module 81. The unloading adsorption component 82 uses the unloading module 81 to remove the screw plate assembly from the corresponding fixture 3.

[0055] The controller is electrically connected to the steering drive 22, the base plate loading assembly 4, the glue application assembly 5, the screw plate loading assembly 6, the welding machine 7, and the unloading assembly 8.

[0056] In this embodiment, the automatic feeding, dispensing and welding device for the screw plate assembly includes a frame 1, a steering assembly 2, a fixture 3, a base plate feeding assembly 4, a glue application assembly 5, a screw plate feeding assembly 6, a welding machine 7, a feeding assembly 8, and a controller. The steering assembly 2 provides the indexing plate 21. Multiple fixtures 3 are mounted on the indexing plate 21. The base plate loading assembly 4, the glue application assembly 5, the screw plate loading assembly 6, the welding machine 7, and the unloading assembly 8 are arranged in a circular pattern around the indexing plate 21. The base plate loading assembly 4 conveys the base plate onto the fixture 3. Then the indexing plate 21 rotates, the glue application assembly 5 applies a ring of sealant to the base plate, and then the indexing plate 21 rotates again. The screw plate loading assembly 6 places the screw plate on the base plate, and after placement, the gap between the screw plate and the base plate is sealed by the sealant. Then the indexing plate 21 rotates again until the fixture 3 moves into the welding station. The welding machine 7 welds the screw plate and base plate assembly to form a screw plate assembly. Then the indexing plate 21 rotates again, and the unloading assembly 8 removes the screw plate assembly from the fixture 3. The controller is electrically connected to the steering assembly 2, the base plate loading assembly 4, the gluing assembly 5, the screw plate loading assembly 6, the welding machine 7, and the unloading assembly 8. Therefore, multiple operators are no longer required throughout the process, which greatly saves labor costs. In addition, since the fixture 3 has multiple forms, gluing, screw plate loading, welding, and unloading can be completed simultaneously while the base plate is being loaded, thus greatly improving the production efficiency of the screw plate assembly.

[0057] It should be noted that when welding the assembly of the screw plate and the base plate, the welding head on the welding machine 7 will press down on the assembly of the screw plate and the base plate. This not only ensures the welding quality, but also ensures that the sealant between the screw plate and the base plate has a good sealing effect.

[0058] The steering assembly 2 includes an indexing plate 21 and a steering drive 22. The steering assembly 2 is a common existing technology, so other structures will not be described in detail. The indexing plate 21 is located on the output end of the steering drive 22, which is electrically connected to the controller. The fixture 3 is located on the indexing plate 21, and the angle through which the indexing plate 21 rotates in each step can be set.

[0059] Fixture 3 has a common structure, including a cylindrical base and a positioning post. The cylindrical base is used to place the base plate, and then the screw plate is placed on the base plate. The base plate has a through hole, and the screw plate has a threaded hole. When the screw plate is placed on the base plate, the positioning post passes through both the through hole and the threaded hole.

[0060] The base plate loading assembly 4 includes a base plate hopper 41, a base plate loading module 42, and a base plate suction component 43. The base plate hopper 41 stores a large number of base plates and is located at the bottom of the frame 1. The base plate loading module 42 is mounted on the frame 1 and located above the base plate hopper 41. The output end of the base plate loading module 42 can move independently in the vertical and horizontal directions. The base plate suction component 43 is mounted on the output end of the base plate loading module 42. Therefore, base plates can enter the fixture 3 from the base plate hopper 41. The base plate suction component 43 can suction the base plates to ensure stability during movement.

[0061] The glue application assembly 5 includes a glue application module 51 and a glue application gun 52. The glue application module 51 is mounted on the frame 1 and has a moving end along the XYZ direction. The glue application gun 52 is mounted on the moving end of the glue application module 51. By precisely controlling the glue application module 51, the glue application gun 52 can complete a full circle of glue application on the base plate.

[0062] The screw plate loading assembly 6 includes a screw plate hopper 61, a screw plate loading module 62, and a screw plate suction unit 63. The screw plate hopper 61 stores a large number of screw plates and is located at the bottom of the frame 1. The screw plate loading module 62 is mounted on the frame 1 and located above the screw plate hopper 61. The screw plate loading module 62 has output ends that move in both vertical and horizontal directions. The screw plate suction unit 63 is mounted on the output end of the screw plate loading module 62. The screw plate suction unit 63 uses the screw plate loading module 62 to place the screw plates from the screw plate hopper 61 into the fixture 3 and then places the screw plates on the base plate. During the placement process, the screw plate suction unit 63 first removes the screw plates from the screw plate hopper 61 by suction, then moves them above the corresponding fixture 3, then drops them, and then disconnects the suction. After disconnection, the screw plates are placed on the base plate.

[0063] It should be noted that, in order to save costs, the screw plate loading assembly 6 and the base plate loading assembly 4 have the same structure, and the base plate suction component 43 and the screw plate suction component 63 can also be selected as vacuum suction cups or electromagnets.

[0064] The welding machine 7 is a common type of projection welding machine 7, therefore, it will not be described in detail. When welding the assembly of the base plate and the screw plate, the welding machine 7 applies a certain force to the screw plate. Although this force is small, it can ensure a tight connection between the base plate and the screw plate, thereby ensuring that the sealant can achieve a good sealing effect after welding.

[0065] The unloading assembly 8 includes an unloading module 81 and an unloading suction component 82. The unloading module 81 is located on the side of the welding and has an output end that moves in a horizontal direction. The unloading suction component 82 is located on the output end of the unloading module 81. The unloading module 81 is a common cylinder or electric push rod, and the unloading suction component 82 is a vacuum suction cup or electromagnet.

[0066] The feeding assembly 8 removes the screw plate assembly from the fixture 3 and then feeds the assembly into the conveyor belt or storage bin.

[0067] It should be noted that, since the main inventive point of this utility model is to combine the work that was originally done at multiple workstations into one and to adopt a mechanized form, which greatly reduces the number of operators, the existing technology will not be described in detail. For example, when the feeding adsorption component 82 is selected as an electromagnet, the connection and setting of its electrical components are all existing technologies and can be implemented by those skilled in the art; therefore, they will not be described in detail.

[0068] To further reduce production costs, the bottom plate hopper 41 has the same structure as the screw plate hopper 61. The bottom plate hopper 41 includes:

[0069] The hopper turntable 401 has a rotation axis arranged in the vertical direction;

[0070] The output end of the hopper driver 402 is connected to the rotation center of the hopper turntable 401;

[0071] Guide rod 403 is vertically mounted on hopper turntable 401;

[0072] The positioning rod 404 is vertically mounted on the hopper turntable 401 and is used to stack the bottom plate;

[0073] The support plate 405 has a guide hole, and the support plate 405 moves vertically by means of the guide rod 403 passing through the guide hole;

[0074] The pusher is located at the bottom of the hopper turntable 401, and the pusher tip is connected to the bearing plate 405.

[0075] There are multiple load-bearing plates 405, pushers, and guide rods 403.

[0076] In this embodiment, the bottom plate hopper 41 includes a hopper turntable 401, a hopper driver 402, guide rods 403, a support plate 405, and a pusher. The hopper driver 402 is located at the bottom of the hopper turntable 401. Under the action of the hopper driver 402, the hopper turntable 401 can rotate a full circumference in the vertical direction, and the angle of each rotation can be adjusted. There are multiple guide rods 403, arranged in pairs, with multiple sets of guide rods 403 evenly distributed. There are also multiple positioning rods 404, which are used to place the bottom plates. Multiple bottom plates can be stacked on one positioning rod 404. The pusher is located at the bottom of the hopper turntable 401, and the pushing end of the pusher is connected to the bottom of the support plate 405. After the pusher is activated, the support plate 405 can be moved in the vertical direction, thus ensuring that the bottom plates stacked on the positioning rods 404 can be removed.

[0077] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model shall be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
