[0078] In the following description, only certain exemplary embodiments are briefly described. As those skilled in the art will recognize, the described embodiments can be modified in various ways without departing from the spirit or scope of this application. Therefore, the drawings and description are considered to be exemplary in nature and not restrictive.

[0079] See Figures 1-15 This invention illustrates a preferred embodiment of a cartridge holder sealing ring assembly device, used to assemble a sealing ring 20 onto a groove in a cartridge holder 10 to form an assembly, comprising:

[0080] Machine body 1, which has a cartridge holder loading station, a sealing ring assembly station and a loading station;

[0081] Assembly workbench 2 is movably mounted on the body 1. Assembly workbench 2 is provided with assembly positioning part 21, which is used to cooperate with the cartridge holder 10 to position the cartridge holder 10 and prevent the cartridge holder 10 from shaking, so as to facilitate the precise fitting of the sealing ring 20 into the groove of the cartridge holder 10.

[0082] The first driving device 3 is mounted on the machine body 1. The first driving device 3 is used to drive the assembly workbench 2 to move so that the assembly positioning part 21 can switch between the cartridge holder loading station, the sealing ring assembly station and the unloading station, thereby facilitating the placement of the cartridge holder 10 on the assembly positioning part 21 at the cartridge holder loading station, the placement of the sealing ring 20 on the cartridge holder 10 at the sealing ring assembly station, and the unloading of the assembly at the unloading station.

[0083] The cartridge holder feeding device 4 is used to place the cartridge holder 10 on the assembly positioning part 21 located at the cartridge holder feeding station.

[0084] The sealing ring feeding and assembly device 5 is used to place the sealing ring 20 onto the cartridge holder 10 located at the sealing ring assembly station, that is, to fit the sealing ring 20 into the groove on the outer peripheral wall of the cartridge holder 10 to form an assembly; and

[0085] Assembly unloading device 6 is used to move the assembly located at the unloading station away from the assembly positioning part 21 to achieve unloading.

[0086] This utility model discloses a cartridge holder sealing ring assembly device, which integrates a body 1, an assembly workbench 2, a first drive device 3, a cartridge holder feeding device 4, a sealing ring feeding and assembly device 5, and an assembly unloading device 6. During assembly, the first drive device 3 drives the assembly workbench 2 to move, thereby enabling the assembly positioning part 21 to switch between the cartridge holder feeding station, the sealing ring assembly station, and the unloading station. When the assembly positioning part 21 is in the cartridge holder feeding station, the cartridge holder feeding device 4 places the cartridge holder 10 into the assembly positioning part 21. Then, the first drive device 3 drives the assembly positioning part 21, which contains the cartridge holder 10, to move to the sealing ring assembly station. Finally, the sealing ring feeding and assembly device 5 loads the sealing ring 20 into the assembly positioning part 21. The sealing ring 20 is placed on the cartridge holder 10 at the sealing ring assembly station, that is, the sealing ring 20 is fitted into the groove on the outer peripheral wall of the cartridge holder 10 to form an assembly. Then, the first driving device 3 drives the assembly positioning part 21 containing the assembly to the unloading station. Finally, the assembly unloading device 6 moves the assembly at the unloading station away from the assembly positioning part 21 to achieve unloading. This realizes the automatic assembly of the sealing ring 20 onto the cartridge holder 10, replacing manual assembly, which can reduce the labor intensity and improve the assembly efficiency. At the same time, it can also reduce labor costs, thereby reducing production costs. In addition, automated assembly can also ensure the consistency of the sealing ring 20 assembly, ensure the stability of assembly quality, and improve product yield.

[0087] See Figure 2 In one embodiment, the first driving device 3 is used to drive the assembly workbench 2 to rotate, that is, the assembly positioning part 21 switches between the cartridge holder loading station, the sealing ring assembly station and the unloading station by driving the assembly workbench 2 to rotate through the first driving device 3.

[0088] The cartridge holder feeding device 4, the sealing ring feeding and assembly device 5, and the assembly unloading device 6 are arranged sequentially around the rotation center line of the assembly workbench 2, so that the cartridge holder feeding device 4, the sealing ring feeding and assembly device 5, and the assembly unloading device 6 are closely arranged, which can improve space utilization and reduce the overall volume of the cartridge holder sealing ring assembly equipment.

[0089] To improve assembly efficiency, see Figure 2 and Figure 5In one embodiment, the number of assembly positioning parts 21 is at least three, and the at least three assembly positioning parts 21 are arranged at intervals. In this way, during assembly, one assembly positioning part 21 can be located at the cartridge holder loading station, another assembly positioning part 21 can be located at the sealing ring assembly station, and another assembly positioning part 21 can be located at the unloading station. This allows the processes of loading the cartridge holder 10, assembling the sealing ring 20, and unloading the assembly to be performed simultaneously, avoiding waiting and improving assembly efficiency.

[0090] See Figure 2 , Figure 4 as well as Figure 5 The assembly positioning part 21 vertically supports the cartridge holder 10. Specifically, the top of the assembly positioning part 21 has an assembly positioning hole for cooperating with the cartridge holder 10. That is, during assembly, the lower end of the cartridge holder 10 is inserted into the assembly positioning hole to limit the left and right swaying of the cartridge holder 10, while the upper end of the cartridge holder 10 is exposed outside the assembly positioning part 21 so that the groove of the outer peripheral wall of the cartridge holder 10 is exposed, thereby facilitating the fitting of the sealing ring 20 into the groove.

[0091] See Figure 5 In one embodiment, the first driving device 3 includes:

[0092] The first motor 31 is mounted on the body 1; and

[0093] The reducer 32 has its input end connected to the output end of the first motor 31. The input end of the reducer 32 can rotate with the output end of the first motor 31. The output end of the reducer 32 is connected to the assembly workbench 2. Thus, the first motor 31 drives the reducer 32, and the reducer 32 drives the assembly workbench 2, thereby achieving smooth rotation of the assembly workbench 2.

[0094] Of course, in other embodiments, the first driving device 3 can also drive the rotary table to move, that is, the first driving device 3 is a linear motion driving device, which can also drive the assembly positioning part 21 to switch between the cigarette cartridge bracket loading station, the sealing ring assembly station and the unloading station.

[0095] See Figure 2 , Figures 6-10 In one embodiment, the cartridge holder feeding device 4 includes:

[0096] The cartridge holder container 41 has a cartridge holder cavity 411 to store the cartridge holder 10.

[0097] The cartridge holder feeding component 42 is located on the machine body 1 and between the cartridge holder feeding station and the cartridge holder material container 41. The cartridge holder feeding component 42 is used to cooperate with the cartridge holder 10 to position the cartridge holder 10, so as to facilitate the accurate gripping of the cartridge holder 10.

[0098] The cartridge holder transfer module 43 is used to transfer the cartridge holder 10 located in the cartridge holder loading cavity 411 to the cartridge holder feeding component 42; and

[0099] The cartridge holder feeding module 44 is located on the body 1. The cartridge holder feeding module 44 is used to place the cartridge holder 10 located on the cartridge holder feeding component 42 onto the assembly positioning part 21 located at the cartridge holder feeding station. Thus, during the loading of the cartridge holder 10, the cartridge holder transfer module 43 is used to transfer the cartridge holder 10 located in the cartridge holder loading cavity 411 to the cartridge holder loading component 42. Then, the cartridge holder loading module 44 is used to place the cartridge holder 10 located on the cartridge holder loading component 42 onto the assembly positioning part 21 located at the cartridge holder loading station. In other words, through the coordinated cooperation of the cartridge holder transfer module 43 and the cartridge holder loading module 44, and with the cartridge holder loading component 42 acting as a transfer station, the cartridge holder 10 can be loaded without damage, replacing the vibration loading method. This can better protect the shape and structure of the cartridge holder 10 and further improve the product yield.

[0100] See Figures 8-9 In one embodiment, the top of the cartridge holder feeding component 42 has a cartridge holder positioning groove 421. The cartridge holder positioning groove 421 is arc-shaped and matches the shape of the cartridge holder 10. The cartridge holder positioning groove 421 is used to support the cartridge holder 10 laterally to position the cartridge holder 10, so that the cartridge holder feeding module 44 can carry the cartridge holder 10 located in the cartridge holder positioning groove 421.

[0101] See Figures 6-9 In one embodiment, the cartridge holder transfer module 43 includes:

[0102] Material loading drive component 431 is disposed on the material loading container 41 of the cigarette cartridge holder;

[0103] A material-carrying component 432 is connected to the output end of a material-carrying drive component 431. The material-carrying component 432 has a first station and a second station, and can switch between the first and second stations as the output end of the material-carrying drive component 431 moves. When the material-carrying component 432 is in the first station, it is located within the material-carrying cavity 411 of the cartridge holder. When the material-carrying component 432 is in the second station, it is located above the material-carrying cavity 411 of the cartridge holder. The top of the material-carrying component 432 has a material-carrying groove 4321, which is adapted to the cartridge holder 10 and is used to laterally support the cartridge holder 10.

[0104] The cartridge holder transfer mechanism 433 is mounted on the machine body 1. The cartridge holder transfer mechanism 433 is used to transfer the cartridge holder 10 located on the material-carrying component 432 in the second working position to the cartridge holder loading component 42. Thus, during the loading of the cartridge holder 10, the material-carrying drive component 431 drives the material-carrying component 432 downwards into the material-carrying cavity 411 of the cartridge holder. The material-carrying groove 4321 then lifts at least a portion of the cartridge holder 10 in a horizontally arranged manner within the material-carrying groove 4321. The material-carrying drive component 431 then drives the material-carrying component 432 upwards to a position above the material-carrying cavity 411. Finally, the cartridge holder transfer mechanism 433 transfers the cartridge holder 10 located on the material-carrying component 432 to the cartridge holder loading component 42, achieving a non-destructive transfer of the cartridge holder 10 to the cartridge holder loading component 42.

[0105] See Figure 7 In one embodiment, the material-carrying drive component 431 is specifically a cylinder, but it can also be a linear motion drive component such as a hydraulic cylinder or an electric push rod.

[0106] See Figure 7 In one embodiment, the material loading groove 4321 extends laterally and can accommodate multiple cartridge holders 10 at the same time to improve the material loading efficiency of the cartridge holders 10.

[0107] See Figures 6-9 In one embodiment, the cartridge holder transfer mechanism 433 includes:

[0108] A cartridge holder pushing mechanism 4331 is disposed on a cartridge holder loading container 41. The cartridge holder pushing mechanism 4331 is used to push the cartridge holder 10 located in the loading groove 4321 towards the outside of the loading groove 4321, closer to the cartridge holder feeding component 42.

[0109] The cartridge holder flat conveying mechanism 4332 is mounted on the machine body 1 and is located between the cartridge holder feeding component 42 and the material-carrying component 432 at the second station. The cartridge holder flat conveying mechanism 4332 is used to transfer the cartridge holder 10 output from the material-carrying groove 4321 to the cartridge holder feeding component 42. Thus, the cartridge holder pushing mechanism 4331 directionally pushes the cartridge holder 10 out of the material-carrying groove 4321, while the cartridge holder flat conveying mechanism 4332 ensures a smooth transfer of the cartridge holder 10 between the second station and the cartridge holder feeding component 42, preventing displacement or tipping and ensuring assembly accuracy. Simultaneously, through the coordinated operation of the cartridge holder pushing mechanism 4331 and the cartridge holder flat conveying mechanism 4332, fully automatic transfer of the cartridge holder 10 from the material-carrying component 432 to the cartridge holder feeding component 42 is achieved without manual intervention, improving assembly efficiency.

[0110] See Figure 7 In one embodiment, the cartridge holder pushing mechanism 4331 includes:

[0111] A cartridge holder push-drive component 43311 is mounted on a cartridge holder loading container 41; and

[0112] The cartridge holder pusher 43312 is connected to the output end of the cartridge holder pusher drive 43311. At least a portion of the cartridge holder pusher 43312 is movably inserted into the material loading groove 4321 along the material loading groove 4321. The cartridge holder 10 can move with the output end of the cartridge holder pusher drive 43311. Thus, by driving the cartridge holder pusher 43312 along the material loading groove 4321 through the cartridge holder pusher drive 43311, the cartridge holder 10 located in the material loading groove 4321 can be pushed to the cartridge holder flattening mechanism 4332. The structure is simple, practical, and low in cost.

[0113] See Figure 7 In one embodiment, the cartridge holder push drive component 43311 is specifically a cylinder, but it can also be a linear motion drive component such as a hydraulic cylinder or an electric push rod.

[0114] See Figures 8-9 In one embodiment, the cartridge holder flattening mechanism 4332 includes:

[0115] The horizontal conveyor track 43321 is installed on the machine body 1;

[0116] The second motor 43322 is mounted on the horizontal transport track 43321; and

[0117] The first conveyor mechanism 43323 is mounted on the flat conveyor track 43321. The input end of the first conveyor mechanism 43323 is connected to the output end of the second motor 43322. The first conveyor belt 433231 of the first conveyor mechanism 43323 is movably mounted in the groove of the flat conveyor track 43321. The first conveyor belt 433231 connects the material loading groove 4321 and the cartridge holder positioning groove 421, so as to use the first conveyor belt 433231 to transport the cartridge holder 10 to the cartridge holder feeding component 42, thereby realizing the non-destructive lateral transfer of the cartridge holder 10.

[0118] See Figure 6 and Figure 10 In one embodiment, the cartridge holder feeding module 44 includes:

[0119] The second drive device 441 is mounted on the machine body 1. The output end of the second drive device 441 can move between the cartridge holder feeding component 42 and the cartridge holder feeding station.

[0120] The cartridge holder clamping mechanism 442 is used to clamp or release the cartridge holder 10; and

[0121] A rotary drive mechanism 443 is provided on the output end of the second drive device 441. The output end of the rotary drive mechanism 443 is connected to the cartridge holder clamping mechanism 442. The rotary drive mechanism 443 is used to drive the cartridge holder clamping mechanism 442 to rotate so as to place the cartridge holder 10 on the assembly positioning part 21. Thus, during the loading of the tobacco cartridge, the second drive device 441 drives the tobacco cartridge holder clamping mechanism 442 to move closer to the tobacco cartridge holder loading component 42. Then, the tobacco cartridge holder clamping mechanism 442 clamps the tobacco cartridge holder 10 located on the tobacco cartridge holder loading component 42. The second drive device 441 then drives the tobacco cartridge holder clamping mechanism 442 to move closer to the tobacco cartridge holder loading station. The rotary drive mechanism 443 then drives the tobacco cartridge holder clamping mechanism 442 to rotate, thereby switching the tobacco cartridge holder 10 from a horizontal arrangement state to a vertical arrangement state. Finally, the second drive device 441 drives the tobacco cartridge holder clamping mechanism 442 to move until the tobacco cartridge holder 10 is placed on the assembly positioning part 21, thus enabling the tobacco cartridge holder 10 to be placed on the assembly positioning part 21 without damage.

[0122] See Figure 9 In one embodiment, the cartridge holder feeding component 42 is provided with a clearance opening 422, which is connected to the cartridge holder positioning groove 421. The clearance opening 422 is used for the jaws of the cartridge holder clamping mechanism 442 to enter and exit the cartridge holder positioning groove 421, so that the jaws of the cartridge holder clamping mechanism 442 can grasp the cartridge holder 10.

[0123] See Figure 10 In one embodiment, the rotary drive mechanism 443 includes:

[0124] The third motor 4431 is mounted on the first mounting base 444; and

[0125] The belt drive mechanism 4432 has its input end connected to the output end of the third motor 4431, and its output end connected to the cartridge holder clamping mechanism 442 to drive the cartridge holder clamping mechanism 442 to rotate smoothly.

[0126] Of course, the belt drive mechanism 4432 mentioned above can also be replaced by a chain drive mechanism.

[0127] Of course, in other embodiments, the rotary drive mechanism 443 may specifically be a rotary cylinder or a rotary hydraulic cylinder.

[0128] See Figure 10 In one embodiment, the cartridge holder feeding module 44 includes:

[0129] The first mounting base 444 supports the rotary drive mechanism 443, that is, the first mounting base 444 serves as the mounting base for supporting the rotary drive mechanism 443 and the cartridge holder clamping mechanism 442.

[0130] The second drive unit 441 includes:

[0131] The second mounting base 4411 supports the first mounting base 444, and the first mounting base 444 can move relative to the second mounting base 4411. That is, the first mounting base 444 can be movably mounted on the second mounting base 4411 via a slide rail.

[0132] The first lifting drive component 4412 is disposed on the second mounting base 4411. The output end of the first lifting drive component 4412 is connected to the first mounting base 444. The first lifting drive component 4412 is used to drive the first mounting base 444 to perform lifting and lowering movements, thereby driving the cartridge holder clamping mechanism 442 to perform lifting and lowering movements (i.e., moving along the Z direction).

[0133] The third mounting base 4413 is movably mounted on the body 1, that is, the third mounting base 4413 can be movably mounted on the body 1 via a slide rail. The third mounting base 4413 supports the second mounting base 4411, and the second mounting base 4411 can move relative to the third mounting base 4413, that is, the second mounting base 4411 can be movably mounted on the third mounting base 4413 via a slide rail.

[0134] A first lateral movement drive component 4414 is mounted on a third mounting base 4413. The output end of the first lateral movement drive component is connected to a second mounting base 4411. The first lateral movement drive component 4414 drives the second mounting base 4411 to move laterally along a first lateral direction, thereby driving the cartridge holder clamping mechanism 442 to move laterally along the first lateral direction.

[0135] The second lateral movement drive component 4415 is mounted on the body 1. Its output end is connected to the third mounting base 4413. The second lateral movement drive component 4415 drives the third mounting base 4413 to move along a second lateral direction, thereby causing the cartridge holder clamping mechanism 442 to move along the second lateral direction. The second lateral direction is the shortest distance between the cartridge holder feeding component 42 and the cartridge holder feeding station, and it is perpendicular to the first lateral direction. Thus, through the coordinated operation of the first lifting drive component 4412, the first lateral movement drive component 4414, and the second lateral movement drive component 4415, the cartridge holder clamping mechanism 442 is driven to move smoothly between the cartridge holder feeding component 42 and the cartridge holder feeding station, thereby placing the cartridge holder 10 onto the assembly positioning part 21 located at the cartridge holder feeding station.

[0136] In one embodiment, the first lifting drive component 4412, the first lateral movement drive component 4414, and the second lateral movement drive component 4415 can all be cylinders, hydraulic cylinders, or electric push rods.

[0137] See Figures 8-9 In one embodiment, the cartridge holder feeding device 4 further includes:

[0138] The first detector 46 is mounted on the translation track. The first detector 46 detects whether the groove of the cartridge holder 10 on the cartridge holder feeding component 42 is in a set position. When the groove of the cartridge holder 10 is in the set position, before the cartridge holder clamping mechanism 442 places the cartridge holder 10 into the assembly positioning part 21, the rotation drive mechanism 443 is controlled to rotate clockwise, causing the cartridge holder clamping mechanism 442 to rotate clockwise until the end of the cartridge holder 10 with the groove faces upwards. Finally, the cartridge holder 10 is placed into the assembly positioning part 21. On the positioning part 21; when the groove of the cartridge holder 10 is not in the set position, before the cartridge holder clamping mechanism 442 places the cartridge holder 10 on the assembly positioning part 21, the rotation drive mechanism 443 is controlled to rotate counterclockwise, which drives the cartridge holder clamping mechanism 442 to rotate counterclockwise until the end of the cartridge holder 10 with the groove faces upward. Finally, the cartridge holder 10 is placed on the assembly positioning part 21 to ensure that the end of the cartridge holder 10 with the groove faces upward on the assembly positioning part 21, thereby ensuring that the sealing ring 20 can be assembled on the cartridge holder 10.

[0139] In one embodiment, the first detector 46 may be an optical fiber, an infrared detector, or a visual detector.

[0140] See Figures 11-13 In one embodiment, the sealing ring feeding and assembly device 5 includes:

[0141] Vibrating feeder 51 has a sealing ring bearing cavity 511 and a feeding track 512. The feeding track 512 is connected to the sealing ring bearing cavity 511. The vibrating feeder 51 is used to transport the sealing ring 20 located in the sealing ring bearing cavity 511 to the feeding track 512.

[0142] The sealing ring feeding component 52 is located on the machine body 1 and is situated between the vibrating feeding plate 51 and the sealing ring assembly station. The sealing ring feeding component 52 is used to cooperate with the sealing ring 20 to position the sealing ring 20 and facilitate the feeding of the sealing ring 20.

[0143] The sealing ring pushing mechanism 53 is mounted on the machine body 1 and is used to push the sealing rings 20 output from the feeding track 512 onto the sealing ring feeding component 52; and

[0144] A sealing ring feeding and assembly module 54 is mounted on the machine body 1. This module 54 assembles the sealing ring 20 located on the sealing ring feeding component 52 onto the cartridge holder 10 located at the sealing ring assembly station. Through the coordinated operation of the vibrating feeding plate 51, the sealing ring pushing mechanism 53, and the sealing ring feeding and assembly module 54, automatic feeding, positioning, and assembly of the sealing ring 20 are achieved, reducing manual intervention and improving production efficiency. The vibrating feeding plate 51 automatically transports the sealing ring 20 through the sealing ring bearing cavity 511 and the feeding track 512, and works with the sealing ring pushing mechanism 53 to quickly transfer the sealing ring 20, shortening the process time. The sealing ring feeding component 52 works in conjunction with the sealing ring 20 to ensure the accurate positioning of the sealing ring 20 before assembly, avoiding misalignment or skew, and improving assembly accuracy and product consistency.

[0145] See Figure 12 In one embodiment, the sealing ring feeding component 52 has a sealing ring positioning groove 521, which is connected to the feeding track 512 so that the sealing ring 20 can be pushed to the sealing ring feeding component 52. The sealing ring positioning groove 521 accommodates the sealing ring 20 to achieve precise positioning of the sealing ring 20 and ensure that the sealing ring feeding assembly module 54 can grasp the sealing ring 20.

[0146] See Figure 12 In one embodiment, the sealing ring pushing mechanism 53 includes:

[0147] A sealing ring pushing drive component 531 is disposed on the body 1; and

[0148] The sealing ring pushing component 532 is connected to the output end of the sealing ring pushing drive component 531. The sealing ring pushing drive component 531 is movably mounted on the machine body 1. The sealing ring pushing drive component 531 is used to push the sealing ring 20 output from the feeding track 512 to the sealing ring feeding component 52.

[0149] In one embodiment, the sealing ring pushing drive component 531 can be a cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder, or an electric push rod.

[0150] See Figure 11 and Figure 13 In one embodiment, the sealing ring feeding and assembly module 54 includes:

[0151] The third drive device 541 is mounted on the machine body 1. The output end of the third drive device 541 can move between the sealing ring assembly station and the sealing ring feeding component 52.

[0152] The fifth mounting base 542 is connected to the output end of the third drive device 541 and serves as an overall support to ensure the rigidity of the material picking and unloading components during coordinated movement and reduce the risk of vibration or misalignment.

[0153] The first material-picking component 543 is disposed on the fifth mounting base 542. The outer peripheral wall of the first material-picking component 543 is used to cooperate with the sealing ring 20 to fit the sealing ring 20 onto the first material-picking component 543. That is, the first material-picking component 543 is inserted into the center hole of the sealing ring 20 to ensure that the sealing ring 20 is accurately fitted and to avoid displacement or deformation. The bottom of the first material-picking component 543 has a first positioning hole (not shown in the figure). The first positioning hole is inserted into the cartridge bracket 10 located at the sealing ring assembly station to achieve accurate alignment between the first material-picking component 543 and the cartridge bracket 10, and to ensure that the sealing ring 20 is accurately installed into the groove of the cartridge bracket 10.

[0154] A first unloading drive component 544 is disposed on a fifth mounting base 542; and

[0155] The first unloading component 545 is connected to the output end of the first unloading drive component 544. The first unloading component 545 is movably sleeved on the outer peripheral wall of the first picking component 543. The first unloading component 545 is used to push the sealing ring 20 located on the first picking component 543 onto the cartridge holder 10. That is, the first unloading component 545 is a cylindrical unloading design, which distributes the force evenly and avoids the sealing ring 20 from getting stuck or tilting. The first unloading component 545 and the first unloading drive component 544 constitute an automatic unloading mechanism. By pushing downward, the sealing ring 20 is smoothly unloaded and pressed onto the cartridge holder 10, reducing manual operation and improving consistency. Thus, during the feeding of the sealing ring 20, the third drive device 541 drives the first picking component 543 to move to the sealing ring feeding component 52 until the first picking component 543 is inserted into the center hole of the sealing ring 20 located on the sealing ring feeding component 52, thereby allowing the sealing ring 20 to be fitted onto the outer peripheral wall of the first picking component 543. Then, the third drive device drives the first picking component 543 to move to the sealing ring assembly station, and the first picking component 543 and the cartridge holder 10 are engaged. Next, the first unloading drive device 544 drives the first unloading component 545 to move downward until the first unloading component 545 pushes the sealing ring 20 on the first picking component 543 into the groove of the cartridge holder 10, completing the assembly of the sealing ring 20. This module, through precise positioning, automatic unloading and modular drive design, achieves efficient and stable assembly of the sealing ring 20, significantly improving product yield and automation level.

[0156] See Figure 11 and Figure 13The third drive unit 541 includes:

[0157] The sixth mounting base is laterally movable and mounted on the body 1;

[0158] The second lifting drive component 5411 is mounted on the sixth mounting base. The output end of the second lifting drive component 5411 is connected to the fifth mounting base 542. The second lifting drive component 5411 drives the fifth mounting base 542 to perform lifting movements, thereby driving the first unloading component 545 to perform lifting movements.

[0159] The third lateral movement drive component 5412 is mounted on the machine body 1. The output end of the third lateral movement drive component 5412 is connected to the sixth mounting base. The third lateral movement drive component 5412 is used to drive the sixth mounting base to move laterally. In this way, through the coordinated cooperation of the second lifting drive component 5411 and the third lateral movement drive component 5412, the first material picking component 543 is driven to move between the sealing ring assembly station and the sealing ring feeding component 52, thereby completing the assembly of the sealing ring 20.

[0160] In one embodiment, the first unloading drive component 544, the second lifting drive component 5411, and the third lateral movement drive component 5412 can all be cylinders, hydraulic cylinders, or electric push rods.

[0161] See Figures 11-13 In one embodiment, the sealing ring feeding and assembly module 54 further includes:

[0162] The second unloading drive component 546 is disposed on the machine body 1 and is located between the sealing ring assembly station and the sealing ring feeding component 52.

[0163] The adapter 547 is mounted on the machine body 1. The adapter 547 has an enlarged diameter portion 5471 and a first guide portion 5472. The enlarged diameter portion 5471 and the first guide portion 5472 are arranged one after the other from bottom to top. The outer peripheral wall of the enlarged diameter portion 5471 is used to cooperate with the sealing ring 20 to fit the sealing ring 20 onto the adapter 547. That is, the enlarged diameter portion 5471 and the center hole of the sealing ring 20 are inserted into each other to ensure that the sealing ring 20 is stably fitted and to prevent it from falling off. The cross-section of the first guide portion 5472 gradually narrows away from the enlarged diameter portion 5471 to form a conical structure, which cooperates with the first positioning hole of the first material taking part 543 to realize the precise guidance and transfer of the sealing ring 20 from the adapter 547 to the first material taking part 543. The top of the adapter 547 also has a second positioning hole 5473.

[0164] The second unloading component 548 is connected to the output end of the second unloading drive component 546. The second unloading component 548 is movably sleeved on the outer peripheral wall of the adapter component 547. The second unloading component 548 is used to push the sealing ring 20 located on the expansion section 5471 to disengage from the expansion section 5471. That is, the second unloading component 548 is a cylindrical unloading design, which distributes the force evenly and avoids the sealing ring 20 from getting stuck or tilting. The second unloading component 548 and the second unloading drive component 546 constitute an automatic unloading mechanism. The sealing ring 20 is smoothly unloaded and transferred to the first picking component 543 by pushing upward, which reduces manual operation and improves consistency.

[0165] The second material-taking component 549 is disposed on the fifth mounting base 542. The outer peripheral wall of the second material-taking component 549 is used to mate with the sealing ring 20, so that the sealing ring 20 is fitted onto the second material-taking component 549. The material-taking component can be inserted into the sealing ring feeding component 52 to receive the sealing ring 20 located on the sealing ring feeding component 52. The second material-taking component 549 can also be inserted into the second positioning hole 5473, that is, the second material-taking component 549 and the second positioning hole 5473 are inserted into each other, realizing the intermediate transition of the sealing ring 20 from the second material-taking component 549 to the adapter component 547. The adapter component 547 is cleverly used to open the sealing ring 20, reducing the risk of shaft diameter twisting when directly transferring the sealing ring 20; and

[0166] The third unloading component 5410 is connected to the output end of the first unloading drive component 544. The third unloading component 5410 is movably sleeved on the outer peripheral wall of the second picking component 549. The third unloading component 5410 is used to push the sealing ring 20 located on the second picking component 549 to the outer peripheral wall of the diameter expansion part 5471. That is, the third unloading component 5410 is a cylindrical unloading design, which distributes the force evenly and avoids the sealing ring 20 from getting stuck or tilting. The third unloading component 5410 and the first unloading drive component 544 constitute an automatic unloading mechanism. The sealing ring 20 is smoothly unloaded and transferred to the transfer component 547 by pushing upward, which reduces manual operation and improves consistency.

[0167] The first positioning hole can also cooperate with the first guide part 5472 so that the first material receiving part 543 can receive the sealing ring 20 output from the diameter expansion part 5471. Through the cooperation of the first positioning hole and the first guide part 5472, a seamless connection of the sealing ring 20 from the adapter part 547 to the first material receiving part 543 can be achieved, which can effectively prevent the sealing ring 20 from deforming. In this way, by using the adapter part 547 as an intermediate carrier, the adapter part 547 can be cleverly used to expand the sealing ring 20, reducing the risk of shaft diameter torsion when directly transferring the sealing ring 20. At the same time, it can also achieve precise delivery of the sealing ring 20, which is convenient for reliably assembling the sealing ring 20 onto the cartridge holder 10, thereby further improving the product yield.

[0168] See Figure 12 In one embodiment, the sealing ring feeding component 52 has a clearance hole 522, which is located on the bottom wall of the sealing ring positioning groove 521. The clearance hole 522 is used to avoid the second material picking component 549 when the second material picking component 549 is inserted into the center hole of the sealing ring 20, so as to ensure that the second material picking component 549 can pick up the sealing ring 20.

[0169] See Figure 13 In one embodiment, the lower end of the second material-taking component 549 has a second guide portion 5491. The cross-section of the second guide portion 5491 gradually decreases from top to bottom to form a tapered structure. The second guide portion 5491 is used to guide the second material-taking component 549 through the central hole of the sealing ring 20, thereby making it easier to take the sealing ring 20 off. At the same time, the second guide portion 5491 is used to guide the second material-taking component 549 into the second positioning hole 5473, so as to facilitate the insertion of the second material-taking component 549 onto the adapter component 547, and facilitate the transfer of the sealing ring 20 onto the adapter component 547.

[0170] In one embodiment, both the first stripping drive component 544 and the second stripping drive component 546 can be cylinders, hydraulic cylinders, or electric push rods.

[0171] See Figure 11 In one embodiment, the sealing ring feeding and assembly device 5 further includes:

[0172] Vibration track 55, which connects to feeding track 512 and sealing ring feeding component 52; and

[0173] Vibrator 56 is installed on the machine body 1 and is connected to the bottom of the vibration track 55. Vibrator 56 is used to drive the vibration track 55 to vibrate, so as to ensure that the sealing ring 20 output by the feeding track 512 can be automatically conveyed to the feeding component 52 near the sealing ring.

[0174] See Figures 14-15 In one embodiment, the assembly unloading device 6 includes:

[0175] The unloading clamping mechanism 61 is used to clamp or release the assembly to grasp it, and at the same time, to unload it.

[0176] The fourth drive device is located on the machine body 1. The output end of the fourth drive device is connected to the unloading clamping mechanism 61. The fourth drive device is used to drive the unloading clamping mechanism 61 to move between the unloading station and the receiving station, so as to transfer the assembly to the receiving station.

[0177] SeeFigures 14-15 The fourth drive unit includes:

[0178] The third lifting drive component 62 has its output end connected to the unloading clamping mechanism 61. The third lifting drive component 62 is used to drive the unloading clamping mechanism 61 to perform lifting motion.

[0179] A third lateral drive component 63 is mounted on the machine body 1. The output end of the third lateral drive component 63 is connected to a third lifting drive component 62, which is used to drive the third lifting drive component 62 to move laterally.

[0180] The unloading drive mechanism 64 is connected to the receiving station and is used to transport the assembly lowered by the unloading clamping mechanism 61 to the receiving station. Thus, through the coordinated operation of the third lifting drive component 62 and the third lateral drive component 63, the unloading clamping mechanism 61 is driven to move between the unloading station and the unloading drive mechanism 64, covering the full range of movement from the unloading station to the unloading drive mechanism 64. This eliminates the need for manual intervention in transferring the assembly to the unloading drive mechanism 64. The independently configured unloading drive mechanism 64 then transfers the assembly to the receiving station, specifically for receiving and conveying. Its clear division of labor with the third lifting drive component 62 and the third lateral drive component 63 reduces system complexity.

[0181] In one embodiment, the third lifting drive component 62 and the third lateral drive component 63 can be cylinders, hydraulic cylinders, or electric push rods.

[0182] See Figures 14-15 The feeding drive mechanism 64 includes:

[0183] The feeding track 641 is located on the machine body 1, and the track groove of the feeding track 641 is connected to the receiving station.

[0184] The fourth motor 642 is mounted on the feeding track 641; and

[0185] The second belt conveyor 643 is located on the unloading track 641. The input end of the second belt conveyor 643 is connected to the output end of the fourth motor 642. The second conveyor belt 6431 of the second belt drive mechanism 4432 is movably located in the track groove of the unloading track 641. The second conveyor belt 6431 is used to transport the assembly to the receiving station.

[0186] Of course, in other embodiments, the feeding drive mechanism 64 can also be a slide, which connects to the receiving station and uses the slide to transport the assembly to the receiving station.

[0187] In summary, the e-cigarette cartridge holder sealing ring assembly equipment has the following advantages:

[0188] 1. Automated assembly of sealing ring 20 was achieved;

[0189] 2. The coordinated operation of the cartridge holder material container 41, the cartridge holder feeding component 42, the cartridge holder transfer module 43, and the cartridge holder feeding module 44 enables the non-destructive feeding of the cartridge holder 10, which can better protect the appearance of the cartridge holder 10 and improve the product yield.

[0190] 3. The material is picked up by a dual material picking component and an intermediate transfer method. The seal ring 20 is cleverly opened by the transfer component 547 to prevent the shaft diameter of the seal ring 20 from twisting.

[0191] 4. When feeding the cartridge holder 10, the first detector 46 and the rotary drive mechanism 443 work together to solve the problem that the cartridge holder 10 is not easy to distinguish the direction, and ensure that the cartridge holder 10 is always placed on the assembly positioning part 21 with the end with the groove facing upward.

[0192] 5. The cartridge holder feeding device 4, the sealing ring feeding assembly device 5, and the assembly unloading device 6 are arranged sequentially around the rotation center line of the assembly workbench 2, so that the cartridge holder feeding device 4, the sealing ring feeding assembly device 5, and the assembly unloading device 6 are closely arranged, which can improve space utilization and reduce the overall volume of the cartridge holder sealing ring assembly equipment.
