Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of automotive connecting rod assembly equipment, and in particular to an automotive connecting rod single-disc assembly equipment. Background Technology
[0002] Automotive connecting rods are an important component of the automotive suspension system, serving to connect and stabilize the vehicle. According to search results, automotive connecting rods can be categorized into various types, including shock absorber connecting rods, shock absorber stabilizer bars, front wheel shock absorber tower top stabilizer bars, front underbody stabilizer bars, rear wheel shock absorber tower top stabilizer bars, rear axle suspension reinforcement stabilizer bars, and chassis reinforcement stabilizer bars, etc. Existing automotive connecting rods mainly consist of a connecting rod body, ball joint, ball head, dust cover, and dust cap. The ball joint is fixedly connected to the connecting rod body, and the ball head is rotatably connected to the ball joint, utilizing dust protection... The sleeve and dust cover seal both ends of the ball joint to achieve the assembly of the car connecting rod. The assembly of the car connecting rod generally uses car connecting rod assembly equipment. The existing car connecting rod assembly equipment is mainly composed of a disc, support components and assembly mechanism. The car connecting rod is supported by the support components, and then the assembly component first rivets the dust cover to the connecting rod. The operator flips the connecting rod so that one end of the sealing cover is facing down, and then puts the ball joint into the connecting rod. The assembly mechanism installs the dust cover on the ball seat, thereby realizing the assembly of the car connecting rod.
[0003] While the above method allows for the assembly of the car connecting rod, the installation of the dust cover requires personnel to flip the connecting rod so that the end with the dust cover faces down. With the dust cover facing down, the ball head can be placed into the ball seat, thus completing the connecting rod installation. Although this method allows for the assembly of the dust cover and placement of the ball head, the connecting rod needs to be flipped every time the dust cover is installed, which increases the number of steps for the operator and indirectly reduces the assembly efficiency of the connecting rod. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problems in the prior art and to propose a single-disc assembly device for automotive connecting rods, which can assemble automotive connecting rods.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model proposes a single-disc assembly device for automotive connecting rods, comprising: a frame, a disc rotatably connected to the frame, and a connecting rod support member disposed on the disc. An assembly mechanism is provided on the top surface of the frame near the disc, and this assembly mechanism is distributed around the center of the disc.
[0006] The frame is driven to rotate and connected to a first connecting column near the top surface of the disk. The end of the first connecting column away from the frame is driven to swing vertically and connected to a second connecting column. The second connecting column is driven to swing vertically and connected to a third connecting column.
[0007] The connecting column three is connected to a swing column that is driven to swing.
[0008] The end of the swing column away from the connecting column three is driven to rotate and connected to a connecting seat, and a clamping robot is fixedly connected to the connecting seat.
[0009] Preferably, the gripping robot includes two cylinders and a gripping block. The two cylinders are fixedly connected to a connecting seat, and the output shafts of the two cylinders are arranged in opposite directions. The gripping block is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the cylinders.
[0010] Preferably, the clamping block is provided with a clamping block, and a bolt is rotatably connected to the clamping block, one end of which is threadedly connected to the clamping block.
[0011] Preferably, the clamping block has a fixing groove, and the two fixing grooves are arranged opposite to each other.
[0012] Preferably, the support includes a support plate that is detachably and fixedly connected to the bracket and a positioning seat one that is fixedly connected to the support plate. A positioning seat two is fixedly connected to the frame. The positioning seat one and the positioning seat two are arranged in a straight line.
[0013] Preferably, the first positioning seat is provided with a V-shaped groove, which is arranged opposite to the second positioning seat.
[0014] Preferably, the second positioning seat has a positioning groove, and the positioning groove has a tie rod support groove that communicates with the positioning groove. The support groove and the V-shaped groove are arranged opposite to each other.
[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: Compared with the prior art, this utility model can adjust the position of the cylinder gripper by rotating the first connecting column set on the frame. Then, by rotating and swinging the second connecting column, the third connecting column and the swing column, the gripper can be adjusted to be close to the connecting rod. Once the gripper is close to the connecting rod, it grips the connecting rod, and the rotation of the connecting seat flips the connecting rod, thereby adjusting the orientation of the connecting rod. By adjusting the orientation of the connecting rod through mechanized operation, there is no need for personnel to manually flip the connecting rod, thereby reducing the number of steps for personnel operation and indirectly increasing the efficiency of connecting rod assembly.

[0027] The assembly equipment in this utility model also includes: connecting column 1 5, connecting column 2 6, connecting column 3 7, swing column 8, connecting seat 9, and clamping robot 10;
[0028] Connecting column 5 is driven to rotate and connected to the frame 1 by motor 21. Motor 21 is fixedly connected to the frame 1, and its output shaft is fixedly connected to connecting column 5. This allows connecting column 5 to indirectly drive the gripping robot 10 to adjust its position. Connecting column 6 is driven to rotate and connected to connecting column 5 by motor 22. Motor 22 is fixedly connected to connecting column 5, and its output shaft is fixedly connected to connecting column 6. This allows adjustment of the position of connecting column 6. Similarly, connecting column 7 is driven to rotate and connected to connecting column 6 by motor 33. Motor 323 is fixedly connected to connecting column 6, and its output shaft is fixedly connected to connecting column 7. This allows indirect adjustment of the gripping robot 10.
[0029] It is worth mentioning that the swing column 8 is driven by motor 424 to swing and is connected to the connecting column 33 7. Motor 424 is fixedly connected to the swing column 83, and its output shaft is fixedly connected to the swing column 8. This allows the swing column 8 to indirectly adjust the gripping robot 10. When the gripping robot 10 needs to be flipped, the connecting seat 9, which is driven by motor 525 to rotate and is connected to the swing column 8, can rotate. Through motor 525 being fixedly connected to the swing column 8 and its output shaft being fixedly connected to the connecting seat 9, the connecting seat 9 can drive the gripping robot 10, which is fixedly connected to the connecting seat 9, to rotate, thereby achieving the goal of the gripping robot 10 driving the connecting rod to flip and adjust its position.
[0030] Specifically, the gripping robot 10 includes two cylinders 11 and a gripping block 12. The two cylinders 11 are fixedly connected to the connecting seat 9, and the output shafts of the two cylinders 11 are arranged in opposite directions. The gripping block 12 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the cylinders 11. Therefore, the output shaft of the cylinders 11 drives the gripping block 12 to move, so that the gripping block 12 grips the connecting rod during the movement, thereby further improving the gripping effect of the connecting rod.
[0031] Specifically, a clamping block 13 is provided on the clamping block 12, and the clamping block 13 is threadedly connected to the bolt 14, which facilitates the replacement of the clamping block 13 by personnel.
[0032] Specifically, a fixing groove 15 is provided on the clamping block 13, which is mainly used for positioning the connecting rod.
[0033] Specifically, the support components include a support plate 16 that is detachably and fixedly connected to the bracket and a positioning seat 17 that is fixedly connected to the support plate 16. A positioning seat 2 18 is fixedly connected to the frame 1. The positioning seat 17 and the positioning seat 2 18 are arranged in a straight line.
[0034] Specifically, a V-groove 19 is provided on the positioning seat, through which the connecting rod can be supported.
[0035] Specifically, since the positioning seat 28 has a positioning groove 20, and the positioning groove 20 has a tie rod support groove that communicates with the positioning groove 20, and the support groove is arranged opposite to the V-shaped groove 19, the ball seat can be positioned and supported through the positioning groove 20.
[0036] The principle of this utility model is as follows: By utilizing the swinging and rotation of connecting column 1 (5), connecting column 2 (6), connecting column 3 (7) and the swing block, the position of the clamping robot 10 can be adjusted. Once the position of the clamping robot 10 is adjusted, the clamping robot 10 clamps the connecting rod and causes the connecting seat 9 to rotate, thereby achieving the flipping of the connecting rod.
[0037] The above embodiments are illustrative of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any simple modifications to the present invention are within the protection scope of the present invention.
