Many specific details are set forth in the following description to provide a full understanding of this utility model.

[0024] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention. The term "and / or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0025] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a feeding mechanism for a fully automatic assembly machine for automotive connector parts is characterized by including a feeding structure 1 for placing automotive connectors;

[0026] The movable structure 2 is used to move the car connector to the transfer detection structure 3;

[0027] Transfer detection structure 3 is used to detect automotive connectors;

[0028] The discharge structure 4 is used to move the automotive connectors that meet the inspection requirements to the fixed fixture.

[0029] The material is fed by the feeding structure 1, and then moved to the transfer and detection structure 3 by the moving structure 2. The material is then detected at the transfer and detection structure 3. After the detection is completed, the material is moved to the fixed fixture position of the transmission structure by the discharging structure 4, thus completing the sequential feeding process of the automotive connector. This fully automates the feeding process, thereby improving production efficiency and ensuring that the product meets the requirements after feeding.

[0030] At this point, for the feeding structure 1, the produced car parts are fed in a certain order. In this embodiment, the feeding structure 1 is a vibratory feeder 11, which is equipped with a feeding track 12. Under the action of the vibratory feeder 11, the car parts move one by one to the position of the feeding track 12. Under the action of the vibratory feeder 11, the car parts move sequentially to the position of the feeding track 12.

[0031] The moving structure 2 moves the car connector from the loading track 12 to the transfer detection structure 3. In this embodiment, the moving structure 2 includes a lateral moving component, a longitudinal moving component, and a moving component, used to remove and move the car connector from the loading structure 1. The lateral moving component and the longitudinal moving component are vertically arranged, and the moving component is located at the moving part of the longitudinal moving component. Under the action of the lateral moving component and the longitudinal moving component, the moving component can move laterally and longitudinally, thereby removing the car connector from the loading track 12. At this time, the moving component is a moving gripper controlled by a finger cylinder, thereby fixing the car connector.

[0032] The car connector is detected at the transfer detection position. At this time, the transfer detection structure 3 includes a fixing plate 31. The side of the fixing plate 31 is connected to a rotating disk 32 via a rotating shaft. The rotating disk 32 is vertically mounted and rotatably positioned on the side of the fixing plate 31. The side of the fixing plate 31 is provided with multiple fixing components 33 for fixing the car connector. The upper side of the rotating plate is provided with a detection component 34 for detecting the car connector as the fixing components 33 move. Specifically, there are four fixing components 33, evenly distributed on the side of the rotating disk 32. At this time, a motor controlling the rotation of the rotating disk 32 is provided on the outside of the rotating disk 32. In this way, the rotating disk 32 rotates on the side of the fixed plate 31, and the four fixed components 33 on the side of the rotating disk 32 rotate simultaneously, as shown in the figure. The left fixed component 33 faces the moving structure 2, the upper fixed component 33 faces the detection component 34, the right fixed component 33 faces the discharge structure 4, and the lower fixed component 33 faces the defective product collection structure. When rotating, the car connector is first taken out from the position of the moving structure 2, and then rotated to the lower side of the detection component 34 at the upper position for detection. After detection, it rotates to the position of the discharge component on the right. If the detection meets the requirements, it is moved out to the fixed fixture through the discharge component. If the detection does not meet the requirements, it continues to rotate to the defective product collection structure at the lower position, thereby completing the transfer detection process. The four fixed components 33 can improve the detection efficiency.

[0033] At this time, the fixing component 33 is used to fix the car connector. Therefore, in this embodiment, the fixing component 33 includes a fixing cylinder, which is a finger cylinder. The movable part of the fixing cylinder is connected to a gripper for fixing the car connector. Under the action of the fixing cylinder, the gripper fixes the car connector, and under the action of the rotating disk 32, it can move to different positions.

[0034] The fixing component 33 must not come into contact with other parts during rotation to avoid affecting the product. Therefore, it is necessary to control the fixing component 33 to move the car connector towards the center of the rotating disk 32 during its rotation. In this embodiment, the fixing cylinder is fixed to the rotating plate via a guide rail slider structure. The guide rail of the guide rail slider structure is arranged along the radial direction, and a control cylinder for controlling the movement of the fixing cylinder is provided on the side of the rotating plate. Thus, under the action of the control cylinder, the fixing cylinder moves, thereby causing the fixed car connector to move as well.

[0035] To enable the inspection of the automotive connector, in this embodiment, the inspection component 34 includes a pole 341 fixed to the upper side of the fixing plate 31. An inspection camera 342 is mounted on the side of the pole 341, and a ring light 343 is located in the center of the pole 341. The ring light 343 is positioned directly above the rotating disk 32. Thus, when the automotive connector, fixed to the side of the rotating disk 32 by the fixing component 33, moves to a position directly above the rotating disk 32, it can be inspected by the inspection camera 342 to determine whether it meets the requirements.

[0036] For a qualified car connector, it needs to be moved to a fixed fixture via the discharge structure 4. In this embodiment, the discharge structure 4 includes a column 41, with a horizontal discharge component 42 on its upper side. The horizontal discharge component 42 is connected to a vertical discharge component 43, and the vertical discharge component 43 is connected to a discharge cylinder 44. The discharge cylinder 44 is a finger cylinder, and its movable part is connected to a discharge gripper for fixing the car connector. Under the action of the discharge cylinder 44, the discharge gripper clamps and fixes the car connector, and moves it to the upper position of the fixed fixture, thereby realizing the movement of the car connector.

[0037] For defective car connectors, recycling is required. In this embodiment, a defective product collection structure is provided on the lower side of the transfer and detection structure 3. The defective product collection structure includes a collection trough 5, which is located below the lowest point of the rotating disk 32. By setting the collection trough 5 below the lowest point of the rotating disk 32, that is, at the lower position, when the fixing component 33 rotates to this position, the defective car connectors can be placed into the collection trough 5, thereby realizing the recycling of defective products.

[0038] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0039] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementations of this utility model, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model patent should be determined by the appended claims.
