Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of connecting wire production equipment, specifically to a variable line spacing automatic line separating and shifting mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] Connecting cables are generally used to connect two electrical appliances. They typically have connectors at both ends, such as those found in mobile phone charging cables. A connecting cable straightening machine is an automated device used to sort several core wires extending from one end of a connecting cable (each core wire has a different color and purpose) so that they can be subsequently soldered to the corresponding welding parts on the connectors. A wire sorting and shifting mechanism is a component of the connecting cable straightening machine. Its function is to transfer the sorted connecting cable to two positioning slots on a positioning carrier. The positioning carrier and the connecting cable in the positioning slots are then transferred to the next process. Specifically, the wire sorting and shifting mechanism transfers one connecting cable at a time, placing both ends of the cable into their respective positioning slots.

[0003] However, since the existing line shifting mechanism is only applicable to specific positioning vehicles and cannot be applied to different positioning vehicles (the spacing between the two positioning slots on different positioning vehicles is different), the line shifting mechanism has poor versatility. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This utility model addresses the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing a variable line spacing automatic line separating and shifting mechanism, which can realize variable line spacing, thus making it applicable to different positioning carriers and having good versatility.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A variable line spacing automatic line separating and shifting mechanism includes a line spacing adjustment mechanism, a first material picking and shifting mechanism, and a second material picking and shifting mechanism;

[0007] The first material handling and shifting mechanism can place the two connecting lines on the line spacing adjustment mechanism;

[0009] The second material picking and shifting mechanism can take out the two connecting lines on the line spacing adjustment mechanism and transfer them to the corresponding first positioning slots on the positioning carrier. Before the second material picking and shifting mechanism takes out the two connecting lines on the line spacing adjustment mechanism and transfers them to the positioning carrier, the second material picking and shifting mechanism can adjust the spacing between the two connecting lines along the X-axis.

[0010] By setting up a line spacing adjustment mechanism, a first material picking and shifting mechanism, and a second material picking and shifting mechanism, during operation, the first material picking and shifting mechanism first places the two connecting lines into the line spacing adjustment mechanism. Then, the line spacing adjustment mechanism adjusts the distance between the two connecting lines along the X-axis for the first time to facilitate the subsequent material picking by the second material picking and shifting mechanism. Then, the second material picking and shifting mechanism adjusts the distance between the two connecting lines along the X-axis for the second time, so that the distance between the two connecting lines is the same as the distance between the two first positioning slots on the positioning carrier. Finally, the two connecting lines are placed into their respective first positioning slots, thereby realizing the variable distance of the connecting lines, which is applicable to different positioning carriers and has good versatility.

[0014] In one embodiment, the second material handling and shifting mechanism has a second drive module, an adjustment component, two second clamps distributed along the X-axis direction, and two third combs. The adjustment component can drive one of the second clamps and one of the third combs to move along the X-axis direction. The second drive module can drive the adjustment component, the second clamps, and the third combs to move between the line spacing adjustment mechanism and the positioning carrier. The second clamps can hold the connecting line.

[0015] In one embodiment, the second drive module has a second mounting base, a second X-axis module and a second Z-axis module. The second X-axis module is disposed on the second mounting base. The second X-axis module drives the second Z-axis module to move along the X-axis direction. The second Z-axis module drives the adjustment component, the second clamp and the third fork comb to move along the Z-axis direction.

[0016] In one embodiment, the drive end of the second Z-axis module is provided with a connecting seat, the adjustment component has a movable seat and an adjustment drive unit that drives the movable seat to move along the X-axis direction, the adjustment drive unit is provided on the connecting seat, and a limiting structure that restricts the movement of the movable seat is provided between the connecting seat and the movable seat, one of the second clamps and one of the third forks are both provided on the movable seat, and another of the second clamps and another of the third forks are both provided on the connecting seat.

[0017] In one embodiment, the limiting structure includes a limiting groove and a limiting block, the limiting block being movably disposed in the limiting groove, and the limiting block abutting against the inner wall of the limiting groove to restrict the movement of the movable seat.

[0018] In one embodiment, the limiting block is detachably mounted on the movable seat, and the limiting block has a limiting protrusion that extends into a limiting groove, which is provided on the connecting seat.

[0019] In one embodiment, the positioning carrier is provided with at least two second positioning grooves spaced apart along the X-axis, and the positioning carrier is provided with a fourth fork comb on one side along the Y-axis.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has significant advantages and beneficial effects. Specifically, by setting up a line spacing adjustment mechanism, a first material picking and shifting mechanism, and a second material picking and shifting mechanism, during operation, the first material picking and shifting mechanism first places the two connecting lines into the line spacing adjustment mechanism. Then, the line spacing adjustment mechanism adjusts the distance between the two connecting lines along the X-axis direction for the first time to facilitate the subsequent material picking by the second material picking and shifting mechanism. Then, the second material picking and shifting mechanism adjusts the distance between the two connecting lines along the X-axis direction for the second time, so that the distance between the two connecting lines is the same as the distance between the two first positioning slots on the positioning carrier. Finally, the two connecting lines are placed into their respective first positioning slots, thereby realizing variable distance of the connecting lines, which is applicable to different positioning carriers and has good versatility.

They are only for the convenience of describing the utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the position or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0033] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

[0034] like Figure 1-8 As shown, this utility model discloses a variable line spacing automatic line shifting mechanism, including a line spacing adjustment mechanism 10, a first material picking and shifting mechanism 20, and a second material picking and shifting mechanism 30. The first material picking and shifting mechanism 20 and the second material picking and shifting mechanism 30 are both located above the line spacing adjustment mechanism 10.

[0035] The first material handling and shifting mechanism 20 can place the two connecting lines 60 on the line spacing adjustment mechanism 10.

[0036] The line spacing adjustment mechanism 10 can adjust the spacing between the two connecting lines 60 along the X-axis direction.

[0037] The second material picking and shifting mechanism 30 can take out the two connecting lines 60 on the line spacing adjustment mechanism 10 and transfer them to the corresponding first positioning slots 41 on the positioning carrier 40. Before the second material picking and shifting mechanism 30 takes out the two connecting lines 60 on the line spacing adjustment mechanism 10 and transfers them to the positioning carrier 40, the second material picking and shifting mechanism 30 can adjust the spacing between the two connecting lines 60 along the X-axis direction. The axis of the connecting lines 60 extends along the Y-axis direction.

[0038] The line spacing adjustment mechanism 10 has a base 11, and a first positioning seat 12, a second positioning seat 13, and a positioning drive unit 14 disposed on the base 11. The first positioning seat 12 is slidably connected to the base 11. The positioning drive unit 14 and the second positioning seat 13 are both mounted on the base 11. The positioning drive unit 14 can be a cylinder. The first positioning seat 12 and the second positioning seat 13 are each provided with a second positioning groove 15 for placing the connecting wire 60. The two second positioning grooves 15 are distributed along the X-axis direction, and the openings of the second positioning grooves 15 face upwards. Yuan 14 can drive the first positioning seat 12 to move relative to the second positioning seat 13 along the X-axis direction to adjust the distance between the two second positioning slots 15 along the X-axis direction. The first positioning seat 12 and the second positioning seat 13 are each provided with a first fork comb 16 on one side along the Y-axis direction. The first fork comb 16 is provided with a plurality of wire-locking slots 161 that can separate the core wire 61 extending from one end of the connecting line 60 along the X-axis direction. The wire spacing adjustment mechanism 10 also has a first wire pushing assembly (not shown). The first pushing assembly can push the core wire 61 upward to make the core wire 61 disengage from the first fork comb 16 and move upward.

[0039] The line spacing adjustment mechanism 10 is provided with a line pulling mechanism 50 on one side along the Y-axis direction. The first fork comb 16 is located between the line pulling mechanism 50 and the second positioning groove 15. The line pulling mechanism 50 can straighten the core wire 61 extending from one end of the connecting line 60 along the Y-axis direction. The line pulling mechanism 50 is provided to straighten the core wire 61 so that the first pushing component can smoothly push the core wire 61 away from the first fork comb 16.

[0040] The first material picking and shifting mechanism 20 has a first drive module 21, two first clamps 22 distributed along the X-axis, and two second combs 23. The second combs 23 correspond one-to-one with the first clamps 22. The first drive module 21 can drive the first clamps 22 and the second combs 23 to move relative to the line spacing adjustment mechanism 10. The first clamps 22 can hold the connecting wire 60. The second combs 23 have the same function as the first combs 16. The first material picking and shifting mechanism 20 also has a second pushing component (not shown). The second pushing component can push the core wire 61 downward to make the core wire 61 disengage from the second combs 23 and move downward.

[0041] The first drive module 21 has a first mounting base 211, a first X-axis module 212 and a first Z-axis module 213. The first X-axis module 212 is mounted on the first mounting base 211. The first X-axis module 212 drives the first Z-axis module 213 to move along the X-axis direction. The two first clamps 22 and the two second forks 23 are all mounted on the drive end of the first Z-axis module 213. The first Z-axis module 213 drives the first clamps 22 to move along the Z-axis direction.

[0042] Both the first X-axis module 212 and the first Z-axis module 213 can be driven by a lead screw and a motor, or they can be driven by a cylinder.

[0043] The second material picking and shifting mechanism 30 has a second drive module 31, an adjustment component 32, two second clamps 33 distributed along the X-axis direction, and two third combs 34. The adjustment component 32 can drive one of the second clamps 33 and one of the third combs 34 to move along the X-axis direction. The second drive module 31 can drive the adjustment component 32, the second clamps 33, and the third combs 34 to move between the line spacing adjustment mechanism 10 and the positioning carrier 40. The second clamps 33 can hold the connecting wire 60. The third combs 34 have the same function as the first combs 16. The second material picking and shifting mechanism 30 also has a third pushing component (not shown). The third pushing component can push the core wire 61 downward to make the core wire 61 disengage from the third combs 34 and move downward.

[0044] The second drive module 31 has a second mounting base 311, a second X-axis module 312, and a second Z-axis module 313. The second X-axis module 312 is mounted on the second mounting base 311 and drives the second Z-axis module 313 to move along the X-axis direction. The adjustment component 32, two second clamps 33, and two third combs 34 are all mounted on the drive end of the second Z-axis module 313 and drive the adjustment component 32, the second clamps 33, and the third combs 34 to move along the Z-axis direction.

[0045] Both the second X-axis module 312 and the second Z-axis module 313 can be driven by a lead screw and a motor, or they can be driven by a cylinder.

[0046] The second Z-axis module 313 has a connecting seat 35 at its drive end. The adjustment component 32 has a movable seat 321 and an adjustment drive unit 322 that drives the movable seat 321 to move along the X-axis. The adjustment drive unit 322 can be a cylinder. The adjustment drive unit 322 is mounted on the connecting seat 35. The movable seat 321 is slidably connected to the connecting seat 35. A limiting structure 36 is provided between the connecting seat 35 and the movable seat 321 to restrict the movement of the movable seat 321. One of the second clamps 33 and one of the third forks 34 are mounted on the movable seat 321, and another second clamp 33 and another third fork 34 are mounted on the connecting seat 35.

[0047] The limiting structure 36 includes a limiting groove 361 and a limiting block 362. The limiting block 362 is movably disposed in the limiting groove 361. The limiting block 362 abuts against the inner wall of the limiting groove 361 to restrict the movement of the movable seat 321.

[0048] The limiting block 362 is detachably mounted on the movable seat 321. The limiting block 362 has a limiting protrusion 363 extending into the limiting groove 361. The limiting groove 361 is provided on the connecting seat 35. When the limiting protrusion 363 abuts against the inner wall of the limiting groove 361, it can restrict the movement of the movable seat 321. The width of the limiting groove 361 along the X-axis is greater than the width of the limiting protrusion along the X-axis. It can be understood that the positions of the limiting block 362 and the limiting groove 361 can be interchanged. By setting the limiting block 362 detachably mounted on the movable seat 321 and setting the limiting protrusion 363 extending into the limiting groove 361 on the limiting block 362, the movement stroke of the movable seat 321 can be adjusted by replacing the limiting block 362 with a different limiting protrusion 363 as needed, thereby adjusting the distance between the two second clamps 33 and the line spacing of the two connecting lines 60.

[0049] The connecting seat 35 is provided with a guide groove 351 extending along the X-axis direction, and the movable seat 321 is provided with a guide part 3211. The guide part 3211 is slidably disposed in the guide groove 351 so that the movable seat 321 and the connecting seat 35 are slidably connected.

[0050] The positioning carrier 40 is provided with two first positioning grooves 41 spaced apart along the X-axis direction, and the positioning carrier 40 is provided with a fourth fork comb 42 on one side along the Y-axis direction. The fourth fork comb 42 has the same function as the first fork comb 16.

[0051] In this utility model, both the first clamp 22 and the second clamp 33 can be gripper cylinders. The distance between the two first clamps 22 is different from the distance between the two second clamps 33. Therefore, the distance adjustment mechanism 10 is needed to adjust the distance between the two connecting lines 60.

[0052] It should be noted that in this utility model, the two connecting lines 60 are connected as a whole, or they can be two independent connecting lines 60.

[0053] The working principle of this utility model:

[0054] The first drive module 21 drives two first clamps 22 and two second combs 23 to move to the material receiving station. The first clamps 22 hold the connecting wire 60, and the second combs 23 separate the core wire 61. The first drive module 21 drives the two first clamps 22 and two second combs 23 to move to the wire spacing adjustment mechanism 10. The two first clamps 22 respectively put the connecting wire 60 into the corresponding second positioning groove 15. The second pushing component pushes the core wire 61 down, so that the core wire 61 is separated from the second comb 23 and transferred to the first comb 16. The wire pulling mechanism 50 straightens the core wire 61.

[0055] The positioning drive unit 14 drives the first positioning seat 12 to move closer to the second positioning seat 13, reducing the distance between the two second positioning slots 15 and thus reducing the distance between the two connecting lines 60.

[0056] The second drive module 31 drives the two second clamps 33 and the two third combs 34 to move to the line spacing adjustment mechanism 10. The second clamps 33 hold the connecting wire 60 in the second positioning groove 15. The first pushing component pushes the core wire 61 upward. After the core wire 61 is separated from the first comb 16, it is transferred upward to the third comb 34.

[0057] The second drive module 31 drives the two second clamps 33 and the two third combs 34 to move above the positioning carrier 40. The adjustment drive unit 322 drives the movable seat 321 to move, so that one of the second clamps 33 moves closer to the other second clamp, reducing the distance between the two connecting lines 60. When the limiting protrusion 363 abuts against the inner wall of the limiting groove 361, the movable seat 321 stops moving, and the distance between the two connecting lines 60 is adjusted to the correct position. The second clamp 33 puts the connecting line 60 into the first positioning groove 41. The third pushing component pushes the core line 61 down, so that the core line 61 is separated from the third comb 34 and transferred to the fourth comb 42. The positioning carrier 40 and the connecting line 60 are then transferred to the next process.

[0058] In summary, this utility model, by setting up a line spacing adjustment mechanism 10, a first material picking and shifting mechanism 20, and a second material picking and shifting mechanism 30, allows for the following process: during operation, the first material picking and shifting mechanism 20 places two connecting lines 60 into the line spacing adjustment mechanism 10; then, the line spacing adjustment mechanism 10 adjusts the distance between the two connecting lines 60 along the X-axis for the second material picking and shifting mechanism 30 to pick up the material; then, the second material picking and shifting mechanism 30 adjusts the distance between the two connecting lines 60 along the X-axis for the second time, making the distance between the two connecting lines 60 the same as the distance between the two first positioning slots 41 on the positioning carrier 40; finally, the two connecting lines 60 are placed into their respective first positioning slots 41, thereby achieving variable distance for the connecting lines 60. This makes it suitable for different positioning carriers 40 and has good versatility.

[0059] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Therefore, any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made to the above embodiments based on the actual technical aspects of the present utility model shall still fall within the scope of the technical solution of the present utility model.
