Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of screw fastening equipment, and in particular to a high-precision fastening mechanism for side screws. Background Technology

[0002] For many electronic products, screws need to be fastened to their casings. The products are transported on a conveyor belt, and a handling robot picks up the products from the conveyor belt and places them on a flipping platform. The flipping platform flips the products so that the side to be fastened with the screws is facing up, and then the fastening robot fastens the screws. However, the structure of flipping the products with the handling robot and the flipping platform is relatively bulky and the equipment cost is high. Moreover, after the products are transported, their positioning accuracy is easily reduced, which adversely affects the screw fastening accuracy. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a high-precision side screw fastening mechanism to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0018] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings:

[0019] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a high-precision side screw fastening mechanism includes a mounting bracket 1, a rotating bracket 2, a rotating motor 3, a first positioning component 4, a rotating drive component 5, a rotating base plate 6, a conveying component 7, and a clamping component 8. Two sets of mounting brackets 1 are provided. The left and right ends of the rotating bracket 2 are rotatably mounted on the two sets of mounting brackets 1, respectively. The rotating motor 3 is driven by one end of the rotating bracket 2. First positioning holes 21 are provided at both ends of the rotating bracket 2. The first positioning component 4 includes a first connecting block 41, a first cylinder 42, and a first positioning pin 43. The first connecting block 41 is fixed to the mounting bracket 1, the first cylinder 42 is fixed to the first connecting block 41, and the first positioning pin 43 is fixed to the power output end of the first cylinder 42 and corresponds to the first positioning hole 21. The rotating drive component 5 is fixed to the front side of the middle portion of the rotating bracket 2. The rotating base plate 6 is fixed to the power output end of the rotating drive component 5. The conveying component 7 is fixed to the front side of the rotating base plate 6. The clamping component 8 is fixed to the rotating base plate 6 and corresponds to the front and rear sides of the conveying component 7.

[0020] Before screwing, the rotary motor 3 drives the rotary support 2 to a horizontal position. The workpiece is conveyed from the previous process to the conveying assembly 7 and clamped by the clamping assembly 8. Then, the rotary motor 3 drives the rotary support 2 to a vertical position. At this time, the first positioning hole 21 corresponds to the first positioning post 43. The first cylinder 42 drives the first positioning post 43 to insert into the first positioning hole 21, so that the rotary support 2 is precisely positioned. Finally, the rotary drive assembly 5 drives the rotary base plate 6 to rotate, so that each side of the workpiece faces upward in sequence, which facilitates the screw-fastening robot to fasten the screws on the workpiece. The advantages of this design are: the workpiece is directly clamped and fixed on the conveying assembly 7 by the clamping assembly 8, which can avoid the decrease in positioning accuracy caused by handling. Moreover, when the rotary support 2 is in a vertical state, it is precisely positioned by the first positioning assembly 4, and the rotary drive assembly 5 drives the workpiece to rotate, which improves the efficiency of screw fastening.

[0021] The conveying assembly 7 includes an adjusting base 71, a left mounting bracket 72, a right mounting bracket 73, a left conveyor belt 74, and a right conveyor belt 75. The adjusting base 71 is fixed to the front side of the rotating base plate 6. The left mounting bracket 72 and the right mounting bracket 73 are respectively fixed to the left and right sides of the adjusting base 71 and are both adjustable in the left and right direction. The left conveyor belt 74 and the right conveyor belt 75 are respectively mounted on the left mounting bracket 72 and the right mounting bracket 73.

[0022] The spacing between the left conveyor belt 74 and the right conveyor belt 75 can be adjusted by adjusting the base 71 to accommodate workpieces of different widths.

[0023] The clamping assembly 8 includes a first lifting cylinder 81, a lifting baffle 82, a connecting bracket 83, a second lifting cylinder 84, and a lifting pressure plate 85. The first lifting cylinder 81 is fixed to the front side of the rotating base plate 6. The lifting baffle 82 is fixed to the power output end of the first lifting cylinder 81 and corresponds to the rear side of the left conveyor belt 74. Two sets of the first lifting cylinder 81 and the lifting baffle 82 are provided and correspond to the upper and lower sides of the rotating base plate 6, respectively. The left and right ends of the connecting bracket 83 are fixed to the left mounting bracket 72 and the right mounting bracket 73, respectively. The second lifting cylinder 84 is fixed to the connecting bracket 83. The lifting pressure plate 85 is fixed to the power output end of the second lifting cylinder 84 and corresponds to the front side of the left conveyor belt 74.

[0024] When the workpiece is conveyed onto the conveyor assembly 7, the conveyor belt is in a horizontal conveying state. Two sets of lifting baffles 82 are located at the front and rear ends of the workpiece. The first lifting cylinder 81 drives the lifting baffles 82 to rise, so that the workpiece is removed from the conveyor belt. Then, the second lifting cylinder 84 drives the lifting pressure plate 85 to descend and cooperate with the lifting baffles 82 to clamp the workpiece so that it can be flipped into a vertical state and the screws can be locked.

[0025] This design also includes a second positioning component 9. The rotating base plate 6 is provided with four sets of second positioning holes 61. The four sets of second positioning holes 61 are evenly distributed around the rotating drive component 5. The second positioning component 9 includes a second connecting block 91, a second cylinder 92, and a second positioning post 93. The second connecting block 91 is fixed to the front side of the rotating bracket 2. The second cylinder 92 is fixed on the second connecting block 91. The second positioning post 93 is fixed to the power output end of the second cylinder 92 and corresponds to the second positioning hole 61. The second positioning component 9 is provided in two sets and corresponds to the left and right sides of the rotating drive component 5, respectively.

[0026] When the rotating bracket 2 is in a vertical position, the rotating drive assembly 5 drives the rotating base plate 6 to rotate, so that each side of the workpiece faces upward in sequence. Whenever a side faces upward, the second cylinder 92 drives the second positioning pin 93 to insert into the second positioning hole 61, thereby fixing the workpiece and preventing the workpiece from shifting position during the screw tightening process.

[0027] The above does not limit the technical scope of this utility model. Any modifications, equivalent changes and alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of this utility model shall still fall within the scope of the technical solution of this utility model.
