This provides excellent insulation and voltage withstand performance, effectively securing the conductors and preventing electrical continuity between them. Currently, the insulator needs to be manually pressed into the housing, resulting in low processing efficiency and high labor intensity. Utility Model Content

[0032] Example: A connector press-fit fixture, such as Figure 1 As shown, it includes a handling mechanism, a pressing mechanism, and a conveying mechanism. The handling mechanism and the pressing mechanism are located above the conveying mechanism. The handling mechanism, the pressing mechanism, and the conveying mechanism are all installed on the machine base 4.

[0033] like Figure 2 , 3 As shown in Figure 4, the conveying mechanism includes a carrier plate 31, a first carrier 32 for placing the insulator 5, a second carrier 33 for placing the housing 6, and a conveying drive motor 34 for driving the carrier plate 31 to move horizontally. The first carrier 32 and the second carrier 33 are both installed above the carrier plate 31.

[0034] The conveying mechanism includes a gripper cylinder 11 for holding the insulator 5 and a lifting drive motor 12 for driving the gripper cylinder 11 to move up and down.

[0035] like Figure 6 As shown, the pressing mechanism includes a pressing rod 21 and a pressing drive motor 22. The pressing drive motor 22 drives the pressing rod to press down so that the insulator 5 is inserted into the housing 6.

[0036] Both the lifting drive motor 12 and the pressing drive motor 22 are fixed to the frame 41, and the frame 41 is fixed to the machine base 4.

[0037] like Figure 4 As shown, the first carrier 32 has a first carrier groove 321 that matches the insulator 5, the upper end of the insulator 5 protrudes from the first carrier groove 321, and the first carrier 32 is fixed to the carrier plate 31.

[0038] The upper end of the housing 6 is provided with a guide slope 61, and the inclination direction of the guide slope 61 gradually slopes downward from the outer wall to the inner wall of the housing 6.

[0039] like Figure 5 As shown, the second carrier 33 has a second carrier groove 331 that matches the housing 6. The second carrier 33 is installed in the mounting groove 311 of the carrier plate 31. The four sides of the second carrier groove 331 are respectively connected to the connecting rod 332. The side wall of the mounting groove 311 is provided with a waist-shaped hole 312. The connecting rod 332 is inserted into the waist-shaped hole 312. The connecting rod 332 is fitted with a spring 35, and the spring 35 is located between the mounting groove 311 and the second carrier 33.

[0040] The conveying drive motor 34 is fixed to the machine base 4, and the output shaft of the conveying drive motor 34 is connected to the conveying lead screw, which is threaded to the carrier plate 31.

[0041] In practice, the machine tool is equipped with a horizontal guide rail so that the carrier plate can move along the direction of the horizontal guide rail.

[0043] In practice, the frame is equipped with guide rails so that the lifting seat can move up and down along the direction of the guide rails.

[0044] The gripper cylinder 11 has two U-shaped gripping arms 111. The gripper cylinder 11 drives the two gripping arms 111 to move closer together to grip the insulator 5. In this embodiment, since the gripper cylinder clamps the insulator through the gripping arms, the downward pressure provided when pressing the insulator into the housing is relatively small, and can only slightly press the insulator into the housing. Therefore, a pressing mechanism is needed to completely install the insulator into the housing.

[0045] In practice, the surface of the clamping arm that contacts the insulator is provided with a layer of anti-slip rubber.

[0046] The pressure rod 21 is mounted on the lower pressure frame 23, the lower pressure frame 23 is threaded to the lower pressure screw 24, and the lower pressure screw 24 is connected to the output shaft of the press drive motor 22.

[0049] The conveying mechanism, the handling mechanism, and the pressing mechanism are all electrically connected to the controller.

[0050] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: The insulator is manually placed on the first carrier, and the housing is placed on the second carrier. The conveying drive motor drives the conveying screw to rotate, and the conveying screw drives the carrier plate to move horizontally, so that the first carrier is below the gripper cylinder. The lifting drive motor drives the lifting screw to rotate, and the lifting screw drives the lifting seat to descend. After the gripping arm of the gripper cylinder clamps the insulator, it is lifted. The conveying drive motor drives the conveying screw to rotate, and the conveying screw drives the carrier plate to move horizontally, so that the second carrier is below the gripper cylinder. The lifting drive motor drives the lifting screw to rotate, and the lifting screw drives the lifting seat to descend, slightly inserting the insulator into the housing. Then, the gripper cylinder drives the gripping arm to release the insulator. The lifting drive motor drives the lifting seat to rise, and the conveying drive motor drives the second carrier to move to below the pressure rod. The pressing drive motor drives the lower pressing screw to rotate, and the lower pressing screw drives the lower pressing frame to descend, thereby causing the pressure rod to descend and press the insulator into the housing to complete the assembly.
