Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sensor manufacturing technology, and in particular to a wind direction sensor packaging and welding device. Background Technology
[0002] A wind direction sensor is a physical device that detects and senses external wind direction information by the rotation of a wind direction arrow, and converts it into an electrical signal or other measurable form.
[0003] During the production process of sensors, the outer shell needs to be encapsulated and welded. The conventional welding method is to manually place the sensor body on a welding support, then cover it with the cover, and then perform the welding operation. This method involves a large amount of labor for workers, low production efficiency, and the welding yield is closely related to the worker's skill level, which cannot meet the product qualification rate.
[0004] In view of the above-mentioned shortcomings, the designer actively researched and innovated in order to create a wind direction sensor packaging and welding device, which would make it more valuable for industrial applications. Utility Model Content
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a wind direction sensor packaging and welding device.
[0006] This utility model discloses a wind direction sensor packaging and welding device, including a frame fixedly installed on the foundation, a horizontal working platform on the upper side of the frame, a rotatable turntable in the middle of the working platform, multiple welding brackets evenly arranged on the outer ring of the turntable, a sensor cover being transported by a vibrating feeder on one side of the frame, a cover picking mechanism on one side of the feeding rack of the vibrating feeder, the cover picking mechanism moving the sensor cover onto the welding bracket, and a lifting welding machine installed on one side of the turntable.
[0007] This wind direction sensor encapsulation and welding device has a turntable on the work platform on the frame that can drive multiple welding brackets to rotate. First, the sensor body is placed on the welding bracket by a robotic arm, and then the cover is transported by a vibrating feeder. Subsequently, the cover is moved to the welding bracket, and the turntable drives the welding bracket to the welding machine station to complete the welding operation.
[0008] Furthermore, the cover-receiving mechanism includes a limiting frame located at the front end of the feeding frame of the vibrating feeder. The limiting frame has a recessed slot on the side facing the feeding frame, and a material-receiving bracket is arranged horizontally with the limiting frame. A material-receiving head that can move horizontally is installed on the material-receiving bracket.
[0009] The limiting frame at the front end of the vibratory feeder is used to lock the cover in place, making it convenient for the cover-retrieving mechanism to pick up the cover.
[0010] Furthermore, a horizontal plate is fixed to the top of the material handling bracket, and a first cylinder is fixed to one end of the horizontal plate via a vertical plate. A slide rail is installed on the surface of the horizontal plate, and a slider is configured on the slide rail. A second cylinder is fixed on the slider. The telescopic rod of the first cylinder is fixedly connected to the side wall of the second cylinder. A right-angle adapter plate is fixed on the telescopic rod of the second cylinder, and a material handling head is installed in the middle of the adapter plate.
[0011] The position of the material picking head can be moved up, down, left, and right, making it easy to remove the cover from the top of the limiting stand and move it to the welding bracket for easy transfer.
[0012] Furthermore, the welding machine includes a welding cylinder bracket, with a cylinder support fixed at the upper end of the welding cylinder bracket. The cylinder support is used to install a third cylinder, and the telescopic rod of the third cylinder is fixedly connected to a push plate, which is fixedly connected to the welding head.
[0013] The welding machine is driven by the third cylinder to lift and lower. The welding head of the welding machine contacts the cover to complete the welding operation.
[0014] Furthermore, there are two connecting plates between the cylinder bracket and the welding cylinder bracket. The inner side of the connecting plates has a slider, and the two sides of the welding head have slide rails that cooperate with the slider.
[0015] The welding head is guided by a corresponding slider rail, ensuring smooth movement and meeting the precision requirements of welding.
[0016] Furthermore, the welding bracket includes a fixing plate that is fixedly installed with the turntable. A welding seat is fixed to the outside of the fixing plate. A lifting plate is installed on the outer wall of the welding seat via a sliding rail slider. A spring is located between the tail end of the lifting plate and the protrusion on the outside of the welding seat. The upper end of the lifting plate has a groove for placing the cover.
[0017] The lifting plate on the welding bracket has a lifting and buffering function. After welding is completed, by pressing the lifting plate, the sensor is pushed out by the top rod inside the welding seat, making it easy to pick up the finished product after welding.
[0018] By means of the above solution, the present invention has at least the following advantages: This wind direction sensor packaging and welding device uses a welding bracket on a turntable to transport the sensor body. A vibrating feeder and a cover-receiving mechanism work together to assemble the cover onto the welding bracket. The turntable then moves the sensor body with the cover to the welding machine. After welding by the welding machine, the processing is completed. Finally, a robotic arm removes the finished product, completing the welding process. The entire welding operation is fast and convenient, improving production efficiency and ensuring welding quality.

[0027] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are used to illustrate this utility model, but are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model.
[0028] See Figure 1This wind direction sensor encapsulation and welding device has a working platform 2 at the upper end of its frame 1. A turntable 3 is mounted in the middle of the working platform 2 via a servo motor. Multiple welding brackets 4 are evenly spaced on the turntable 3. A robotic arm clamps the sensor body into the welding bracket 4. Driven by the turntable 3, the welding bracket 4 moves, moving the welding bracket 4 with the sensor body to one side of the vibrating feeder 5. The vibrating feeder 5 transports the sensor cover to its end. The cover is removed by the cover removal mechanism and moved to the welding bracket 4, completing the splicing of the cover and the body. Then, the turntable 3 continues to move, moving the spliced sensor to the position of the welding machine 6. The welding machine 6 performs the welding operation. After welding is completed, the turntable 3 continues to rotate, moving the welded sensor to the vicinity of the unloading robotic manual position, where the sensor is removed, completing the welding process.
[0029] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 The vibrating feeder 5 has a limiting stand 7 at the front end of the feeding frame. The vibrating feeder 5 can transport the cover into the groove at the top of the limiting stand 7 to complete the limiting and fixing of the cover. Then, the cover is picked up by the picking head 9 installed on the picking bracket 8. The picking head 9 has a suction cup structure and can be connected to an air pump. The air pump draws air to make the suction cup on the picking head 9 form a negative pressure for picking up the cover.
[0030] See Figure 2 The top of the material picking bracket 8 has a horizontal plate 10. A second cylinder 13 is installed on the horizontal plate 10 via a slide rail and a slider. Driven by the first cylinder 12, the second cylinder 13 moves on the slide rail. The second cylinder 13 can drive the picking head 9 installed via the adapter plate 14 to move up and down, which facilitates the picking and transferring of the cover. The cover can be transferred to the welding bracket 4 on the turntable 3 to complete the transfer of the cover. The cover is then initially docked with the sensor body placed on the welding bracket 4.
[0031] See Figure 3 and Figure 4 The welding cylinder bracket 15 of the welding machine 6 is fixedly installed on the work platform 2. The top of the welding cylinder bracket 15 is a cylinder bracket 19 installed by a connecting rod. The third cylinder 16 is fixed in place. Under the drive of the third cylinder 16, the welding head 18 is moved up and down by the push plate 17, which facilitates the welding operation of the sensor cover.
[0032] The cylinder bracket 19 and the welding cylinder bracket 15 have sliders for guiding the welding head 18 to move up and down. The slide rails on both sides of the welding head 18 cooperate with the sliders to provide guidance for the movement of the welding head 18, ensuring the smooth movement of the welding head 18 and meeting the welding accuracy requirements.
[0033] The welding bracket 4 is mounted on the turntable 3 via a fixing plate 21. A welding seat 22 is mounted on the fixing plate 21, and a push rod is located inside the welding seat 22. The upper end of the lifting plate 23 has an opening directly above the welding seat 22, into which the sensor body is placed. A push rod is located at the lower end of the opening. The lifting plate 23 and the outer side of the welding seat 22 are movably mounted via a sliding rail slider. A spring 24 is located at the lower end of the lifting plate 23, which provides an upward force to the lifting plate 23. When picking up the sensor, the lifting plate 23 is squeezed by the robotic arm, causing the lifting plate 23 to move downward. The push rod installed inside the welding seat 22 moves upward, pushing the sensor out of the lifting plate 23. The robotic arm then grasps the sensor, completing the material picking operation.
[0034] Finally, the following points should be noted: First, in the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise specified and limited, the terms "installation", "connection", and "linkage" should be interpreted broadly, and can be mechanical or electrical connections, or internal connections between two components, or direct connections. "Up", "down", "left", "right", etc. are only used to indicate relative positional relationships.

Other structures can refer to the general design. In the absence of conflict, the same embodiment and different embodiments of this utility model can be combined with each other.
[0036] Finally: The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present invention, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
