[0015] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and through embodiments. The following embodiments are explanations of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments.
[0016] See Figure 1 The fully automatic assembly equipment for plastic planetary gears in this embodiment includes a multi-station indexing plate 1 with a circular structure. On the multi-station indexing plate 1, the following are arranged counterclockwise in sequence: the first station planetary carrier placement area 2, the second station planetary gear pressing area 3, the third station automatic lubrication pressing area 4, the fourth station automatic detection area 5, the fifth station defective product unloading area 6, and the sixth station good product unloading area 7.
[0017] The second pressing area 2 is equipped with an automatic feeder 8 and a planetary gear pressing device 9. The automatic feeder 8 includes a planetary gear track 10 located on the side of the multi-station indexing plate, and the planetary gear pressing device 9 is installed at the outlet end of the planetary gear track 10.
[0018] The third station automatic grease coating and pressing area 4 includes an automatic grease coating device 11, a second automatic feeder 12, and a planetary carrier support pressing device 13. The second automatic feeder 12 includes a planetary carrier support track 14 set on the side of the multi-station indexing plate; the planetary carrier support pressing device 13 is installed at the outlet end of the planetary carrier support track 14.
[0019] The fourth automatic detection area is equipped with a height and missing part detection device 15.
[0020] In this embodiment, the planetary gear track 10 is equipped with a Teflon coating to prevent scratches on the product and maintain smooth movement.
[0021] This embodiment also includes a control panel 16 for setting data parameters and displaying the status of the host.
[0022] This embodiment also includes a protective cover 17, which covers and protects the multi-station indexing plate 1, and a corresponding operating area is provided on the protective cover 17.
[0023] After the product to be assembled is placed in the machine, it is set to fully automatic operation via the human-machine interface. Simply press the button, and the machine will run automatically. The finished product will be collected to complete the entire assembly process. This invention uses a 6-station indexing plate, which is driven to rotate by a precision servo electric cylinder. The rotation time for each station is only 0.5 seconds. The 6 stations work simultaneously to complete their respective set functions, thereby reducing the production cycle and improving work efficiency.
[0024] The specific operating procedure is as follows: First, place the planetary carrier, planetary gears, and planetary carrier support to be assembled into their corresponding positions; by rotating the multi-station indexing plate 1, the planetary carrier in the first station planetary carrier placement area 2 slides to the designated position; in the second station planetary gear pressing area 3, the planetary gears are moved above the planetary carrier to be assembled by the No. 1 automatic feeder 8, and the angle is positioned by dividing into three equal parts; the vacuum suction component 9 and the spring flap structure on the planetary gear pressing device ensure that there is no leakage during pressing; the height of the pressing position can be adjusted by the adjusting cylinder; after pressing is completed, proceed to the third... In the automatic lubrication and pressing area 4, the automatic grease application equipment 11 uses the pressure and time adjustment of compressed gas to automatically apply grease. The planetary carrier support is then pressed into the center hole of the planetary carrier by the planetary carrier support pressing device 13. Then, in the automatic detection area 5 of the fourth station, the height and missing parts detection device 15 uses the short-circuit principle of probes to automatically detect missing parts of the planetary gear set, the overall height and other parameters, so as to distinguish whether it is qualified. Finally, the abnormal products enter the defective product unloading area 6 of the fifth station, and the finished products enter the good product unloading area 7 of the sixth station.
