Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of detonation sensor production technology, and in particular to an automatic loading device for detonation sensor components. Background Technology
[0002] In the production process of knock sensors, components are typically assembled manually, resulting in low production efficiency. Furthermore, rising labor costs also increase the production cost of knock sensors. Utility Model Content
[0003] To improve the production efficiency and reduce the production cost of knock sensors, this utility model proposes an automatic loading device for knock sensor components. The automatic loading device for knock sensor components includes a storage mechanism, a lifting mechanism and a transfer mechanism. The storage mechanism includes a storage base and a storage column, and the storage column is vertically fixed on the storage base.
[0004] The lifting mechanism includes a lifting drive and a lifting fork. The lifting fork is connected to the lifting drive. The lifting fork has two fork arms symmetrically arranged at its front end away from the lifting drive. The lifting fork moves up and down under the drive of the lifting drive.
[0005] The transfer mechanism includes a transfer seat, a transfer tray, and a transfer gripper. The transfer seat includes a transfer top plate and a transfer column. The transfer top plate is vertically installed and fixed on the transfer column. The transfer tray is installed on the transfer column and can rotate around the central axis of the transfer column. A support seat is provided at the edge of the transfer tray. The transfer gripper is installed on the transfer seat and is used to grab the knock sensor component stored on the storage column and transfer it to the support seat.
[0006] In the production of detonation sensors, the automatic loading device for detonation sensor components of this invention can realize the automatic loading of annular detonation sensor components. Compared with manual loading, it can effectively improve loading efficiency, thereby improving the production efficiency of detonation sensors and reducing the production cost of detonation sensors.
[0007] Preferably, the bottom of the storage base is provided with a storage rotation drive, the drive shaft of which is connected to the storage base and can drive the storage base to rotate around the central axis of the drive shaft; the storage base is provided with a plurality of storage columns, which are evenly distributed near the edge of the storage base and around the central axis of the drive shaft. During the loading process, multiple storage columns can be used to store the knock sensor component simultaneously. After the knock sensor component stored in the previous storage column is transferred to the carrier located at the edge of the transfer tray by the transfer gripper, the storage rotation drive is used to drive the storage base to rotate, so as to rotate the adjacent storage column to the loading position, facilitating the transfer gripper to transfer the knock sensor component. In this way, using multiple storage columns to store the knock sensor components effectively improves the storage capacity of the storage mechanism. The storage rotation drive, via the storage base, rotates the storage columns, allowing for timely replenishment of the knock sensor components during loading, thus improving the replenishment efficiency and overall loading efficiency, and consequently, the production efficiency of the knock sensors. Furthermore, the storage base is equipped with a storage clamp, and this clamp has storage slots for inserting the storage columns. Therefore, when assembling the automatic knock sensor component loading device of this invention, the storage columns simply need to be inserted into the storage slots on the storage clamp, making assembly simple and convenient.
[0008] Preferably, a horizontal adjustment drive is provided at the top of the lifting drive component, and this horizontal adjustment drive is connected to the lifting fork via a horizontal adjustment rod. In this way, during the loading process, the horizontal adjustment drive can be used to adjust the relative position between the lifting fork and the receiving column located at the loading position in the horizontal direction via the horizontal adjustment rod, so that the lifting fork can move away from the receiving column in time when the receiving base rotates. This avoids the lifting fork blocking the receiving column when it rotates with the receiving base, improving the replenishment efficiency of the knock sensor. Further, in the lifting fork, the two fork arms have a U-shaped structure, and the distance between the two fork arms is greater than the diameter of the receiving column. Thus, when the lifting mechanism uses the lifting fork to lift the knock sensor component stored on the receiving column, the two fork arms of the lifting fork can be engaged on both sides of the receiving column. This allows the lifting fork to lift the knock sensor component under the action of the lifting drive component, and also facilitates the receiving column to guide the upward path of the lifting fork during its ascent, preventing the lifting fork from swaying and affecting the ascent of the knock sensor component.
[0009] Preferably, a detection sensor is provided on the side of the storage mechanism, and the detection sensing position of the sensor is the top of the storage column at the loading position. Thus, during the loading process, when the detection sensor detects that the knock sensor component has reached the top of the storage column, the sensor sends an arrival signal to the control center. Based on the received arrival signal, the control center controls the lifting mechanism to stop rising and controls the transfer gripper in the transfer mechanism to pick up the knock sensor component and transfer it to the carrier in the transfer mechanism. Further, the detection sensor is a sensor light. Therefore, selecting a sensor light as the detection sensor simplifies selection and assembly.
[0010] Preferably, multiple carrier seats are evenly distributed along the edge of the transfer tray. This way, after the transfer gripper transfers the knock sensor component onto the carrier seat, rotating the transfer tray will cause the carrier seats to rotate, moving adjacent carrier seats on the transfer tray to the placement position of the transfer gripper, thus improving the loading efficiency of the knock sensor component and consequently increasing the production efficiency of the knock sensor.
[0011] Preferably, the transfer gripper is a mechanical gripper. This makes the selection of a mechanical gripper simple and convenient. Attached Figure Description

[0016] Below, in conjunction with Figures 1 to 4 The present invention relates to an automatic assembly device for knock sensor components.
[0017] like Figures 1 to 4As shown, the automatic loading device for detonation sensor components of this utility model includes a storage mechanism 1, a lifting mechanism 2, and a transfer mechanism 3. The storage mechanism 1 includes a storage base 11 and storage columns 12. The storage columns 12 are vertically mounted on the storage base 11 and are used to store the annular detonation sensor components 4 required for detonation sensor production; that is, the detonation sensor components 4 are stacked and fitted onto the storage columns 12. Preferably, a storage rotation drive 13 is provided at the bottom of the storage base 11. The drive shaft (not shown in the figure) of the storage rotation drive 13 is vertically connected to the storage base 11, which can drive the storage base 11 to rotate around the central axis of the drive shaft. Multiple storage columns 12 are provided on the storage base 11, and the storage columns 12 are evenly distributed near the edge of the storage base 11 and around the central axis of the drive shaft. During the loading process, multiple storage columns 12 can be used simultaneously to store the knock sensor component 4. After the knock sensor component 4 stored in the previous storage column 12 is transferred to the transfer mechanism 3, the storage base 11 is rotated by the storage rotation drive 13 to rotate the adjacent storage column 12 to the loading position, facilitating the transfer mechanism 3 to transfer the knock sensor component 4. In this way, using multiple storage columns 12 to store the knock sensor component 4 can effectively improve the storage capacity of the storage mechanism 1; using the storage rotation drive 13 to drive the storage column 12 to rotate through the storage base 11 can replenish the knock sensor component 4 in a timely manner during the loading process, improving the replenishment efficiency of the knock sensor component 4, thereby improving the loading efficiency of the knock sensor component 4, and further improving the production efficiency of the knock sensor. Preferably, the storage base 11 has a disc structure, and the central axis of the storage base 11 coincides with the central axis of the drive shaft of the storage rotation drive 13. This improves the stability of the storage base 11, thereby enhancing the rotational stability of the storage column 12 on the storage base 11 under the drive of the storage rotation drive member 13. Preferably, a drive motor is used as the storage rotation drive member 13, which is simple and convenient to select and control. Preferably, a storage clamp 14 is provided on the storage base 11, and the storage clamp 14 is provided with a storage clamping groove (not shown in the figure) for inserting the storage column 12. In this way, when assembling the automatic loading device for knock sensor components of this utility model, the storage column 12 only needs to be inserted into the storage clamping groove on the storage clamp 14, making assembly simple and convenient. Preferably, a limiting groove (not shown in the figure) is provided on the storage base 14, and the limiting groove is located at the edge of the storage clamping groove; a limiting protrusion is provided on the bottom side wall of the storage column 12, and when the storage column 12 is inserted into the storage clamping groove, the limiting protrusion is engaged in the limiting groove. In this way, when the storage column 12 is inserted into the storage clamping groove on the storage base, the limiting groove can be used to lock the limiting protrusion, thereby preventing the storage column 12 from rotating in the storage clamping groove and improving the insertion stability of the storage column 12.Preferably, a detection sensor 5 is provided on the side of the storage mechanism 1. The detection sensor 5 is located at the top of the storage column 12 at the loading position to detect in real time whether the knock sensor component 4 has risen to the top of the storage column 12 during the loading process. Thus, during the loading process, when the detection sensor 5 detects that the knock sensor component 4 has reached the top of the storage column 12, the detection sensor 5 sends an arrival signal to the control center. The control center, based on the received arrival signal, controls the lifting mechanism 2 to stop rising and controls the transfer mechanism 3 to grab the knock sensor component 4 and transfer it to the transfer mechanism 3. Preferably, the detection sensor 5 is a sensor light. Therefore, selecting a sensor light as the detection sensor 5 makes selection, assembly, and use simple and convenient.
[0018] like Figures 1 to 4As shown, the lifting mechanism 2 includes a lifting drive component 21 and a lifting fork 22. The lifting fork 22 is connected to the lifting drive component 21. Two fork arms 221 are symmetrically arranged at the front end of the lifting fork 22 away from the lifting drive component 21, and the lifting fork 22 moves up and down under the drive of the lifting drive component 21. Thus, during the loading process, the two fork arms 221 of the lifting fork 22 are inserted on both sides of the receiving column 12 and, under the drive of the lifting drive component 21, lift the knock sensor component 4, causing the knock sensor component 4 to move upward along the receiving column. Preferably, in the lifting fork 22, the two fork arms 221 have a U-shaped structure, and the distance between the two fork arms 221 is greater than the diameter of the receiving column 12. In this way, when the lifting mechanism 2 uses the lifting fork 22 to lift the knock sensor component 4 housed on the storage column 12, the two fork arms 221 of the lifting fork 22 can be engaged on both sides of the storage column 12. This allows the lifting fork 22 to lift the knock sensor component 4 under the action of the lifting drive component 21, and also facilitates the storage column 12 to guide the upward path of the lifting fork 22 during its ascent, preventing the lifting fork 22 from swaying and affecting the ascent of the knock sensor component 4. Preferably, the lifting mechanism 2 also includes a horizontal adjustment drive component 23, which is installed and fixed at the top of the lifting drive component 21 and connected to the lifting fork 22 via a horizontal adjustment rod (not shown in the figure). Thus, during the loading process, once all the knock sensor components 4 stored on a storage column 12 have been transferred away by the transfer mechanism 3, the horizontal adjustment rod of the horizontal adjustment drive 23 can retract to move the lifting fork 22 away from the storage column 12, preventing the lifting fork 22 from obstructing the rotation of the storage base 11 during its rotation. When the storage column 12 containing the knock sensor components 4 rotates with the storage base 11 to the loading position, the horizontal adjustment rod of the horizontal adjustment drive 23 extends and moves the lifting fork 22 toward the storage column 12, causing the two fork arms 221 of the lifting fork 22 to engage on both sides of the storage column 12, thereby lifting the knock sensor components 4 stored on the storage column 12 under the action of the lifting drive 21. In the specific implementation of this utility model, a cylinder can be used as the lifting drive 21 and the horizontal adjustment drive 23, which is simple and convenient.
[0019] like Figures 1 to 4As shown, the transfer mechanism 3 includes a transfer seat, a transfer disk 32, and a transfer gripper 33. The transfer seat includes a transfer top plate 311 and a transfer column 312. The transfer top plate 311 is vertically mounted and fixed on the transfer column 312. The transfer disk 32 is mounted on the transfer column 312 and can rotate around the central axis of the transfer column 312. A bearing seat 34 is provided at the edge of the transfer disk 32. The transfer gripper 33 is mounted on the transfer seat and can grasp the knock sensor component 4 and transfer it to the bearing seat 34. Preferably, the transfer disk 32 is mounted on the transfer column 312 via a transfer bearing (not shown in the figure). In this way, the transfer disk 32 can rotate around the transfer column 312 via the transfer bearing, making assembly simple and convenient. Preferably, multiple bearing seats 34 are evenly distributed at the edge of the transfer disk 32. Thus, after the transfer gripper 33 transfers the knock sensor component 4 onto the carrier 34, the carrier 34 can be rotated by rotating the transfer disk 32, causing the adjacent carriers 34 on the transfer disk 32 to rotate to the placement position of the transfer gripper 33, thereby improving the loading efficiency of the knock sensor component 4 and thus improving the production efficiency of the knock sensor. Preferably, the transfer gripper 33 is a mechanical gripper. Using a mechanical gripper as the transfer gripper 33 is simple and convenient. Preferably, the jaws of the transfer gripper 33 are composed of two opposing clamping plates 331. Thus, when the transfer gripper 33 picks up or puts down the knock sensor component 4, only the distance between the two clamping plates 331 needs to be adjusted, resulting in a simple structure and convenient control. Preferably, the support base 34 includes an L-shaped connecting plate 341 and a horizontal support plate 342. The L-shaped connecting plate 341 is fixedly engaged at the edge of the transfer tray 32, and the horizontal plate 3411 in the L-shaped connecting plate 341 presses against the top surface of the transfer tray 32. The horizontal support plate 342 is perpendicularly connected to the vertical plate 3412 in the L-shaped connecting plate 341 on the side opposite to the horizontal plate 3411, and the horizontal support plate 342 is close to the free end of the vertical plate 3412. In this way, the support base 34 formed by the connection of the L-shaped connecting plate 341 and the horizontal support plate 342 has a simple structure, and the horizontal support plate 342 can support the component pair 6 that mates with the knock sensor component 4 in the knock sensor during the loading process.
[0020] In the production process of detonation sensors, the automatic loading device for detonation sensor components of this utility model can realize the automatic loading of detonation sensor components 4. Compared with manual loading, it can effectively improve loading efficiency, thereby improving the production efficiency of detonation sensors and reducing the production cost of detonation sensors.
