Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of automation technology, specifically relating to an automatic insulator pressing device. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, RF connectors and insulators need to be crimped together. Traditional crimping methods typically involve manual operation, which is inefficient, inaccurate, and inconsistent, ultimately leading to assembly abnormalities and affecting product quality. Therefore, an automated insulator crimping device was designed to solve these problems.

[0003] It should be noted that the above introduction to the technical background is only for the purpose of providing a clear and complete explanation of the technical solutions of this utility model and facilitating understanding by those skilled in the art. It should not be assumed that these technical solutions are known to those skilled in the art simply because they have been described in the background section of this utility model. Utility Model Content

[0004] To overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an automatic insulator pressing device.

[0005] To achieve the above and other related objectives, the technical solution provided by this utility model is: an automatic insulator pressing device, comprising: a device mounted on a mounting base.

[0006] A positioning unit, comprising a rotating disk on which several evenly distributed pressing stations are provided;

[0007] The pressing unit includes a fixed base for mounting a punch. The fixed base is vertically movable on a vertical guide rail, and the position of the punch corresponds to the pressing station.

[0008] The material handling unit includes a material handling gripper that can move up and down. The material handling gripper is mounted on a swing arm and is correspondingly positioned to the pressing station.

[0009] Furthermore, the pressing station includes a pressing positioning post. The upper end of the pressing positioning post has a mounting groove. A tensioning disc and a clamping ring are fitted onto the pressing positioning post. The clamping ring is located above the tensioning disc, which is positioned above the rotating disc. A mounting hole for mounting the pressing positioning post is formed in the middle of the tensioning disc. Several guide grooves are formed on the upper surface of the tensioning disc. Each guide groove is evenly distributed around the mounting hole and radially arranged. A movable guide ball is provided in each guide groove. The distances from the two ends of the guide groove to the mounting hole are different. In this design, when the pressing positioning post is in its initial state, the guide ball is located at the end of the guide groove closest to the mounting hole; when the pressing positioning post is pressed down, the guide ball moves towards the end of the guide groove away from the mounting hole.

[0010] Furthermore, the pressing station also includes several springs, which are evenly distributed at the lower end of the pressing positioning post. The lower end of the pressing positioning post has an arcuate groove corresponding to the spring, and the upper end of each spring is provided with a pressure ball, the upper end of which abuts against the corresponding arcuate groove. In this design, the spring at the lower end of the pressing positioning post provides a buffering effect during pressing.

[0011] Furthermore, a photoelectric sensor is installed in the center of the rotating disk. In this design, the photoelectric sensor is fixedly installed in the center of the rotating disk by a bracket and does not rotate with the rotating disk. The photoelectric sensor can detect each pressing station, facilitating the recording of loading and unloading.

[0012] Furthermore, the material gripper is mounted vertically on a vertical mounting plate, and two parallel swing arms are provided. The mounting plate is connected to the two swing arms via bearings. In this design, when the swing arms swing left and right, they move the mounting plate in both left-right and up-down directions, while always maintaining a vertical position.

[0013] Furthermore, the two swing arms are respectively connected to a driving wheel and a driven wheel, which are arranged vertically and connected by a synchronous belt drive. In this scheme, the driving wheel is connected to a motor, and the driving wheel drives the driven wheel through the synchronous belt, thereby enabling the two swing arms to rotate synchronously, realizing the material picking and feeding by the gripper.

[0014] Furthermore, an adjustable roller that can move left and right is provided on one side of the timing belt. In this design, the adjustable roller can adjust the tension of the timing belt, achieving better transmission.

[0015] Furthermore, a groove is provided on the side of the material-grabbing unit away from the positioning unit, and the groove corresponds to the material-grabbing gripper. In this design, the groove-grabbing gripper correspondence means that when the material-grabbing gripper moves to the side away from the positioning unit, the groove below it corresponds to the groove, allowing the product to be placed into the groove. The material-grabbing gripper is made of a flexible material, making it less likely to damage the product during gripping.

[0016] Furthermore, a through-beam photoelectric switch is provided on one side of the mounting base. In this design, the use of the photoelectric switch can detect whether an operator has begun to operate the equipment, and can pause the equipment operation at any time, thereby improving the safety of equipment operation.

[0017] Furthermore, a central control unit is also provided on the mounting base, and the central control unit is electrically connected to the positioning unit, pressing unit, material handling unit, photoelectric sensor, and photoelectric switch. In this solution, the control unit is used to regulate and control the normal operation of the equipment.

[0018] Due to the application of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of this utility model compared with the prior art are as follows:

[0019] The automatic insulator pressing equipment designed in this utility model adopts a pressing and positioning structure to position the products to be pressed and fitted, which has high positioning accuracy; it adopts an automatic pressing method, which is easy to operate, has high pressing efficiency and good accuracy, and ensures consistency; it adopts a multi-station feeding method, which can continuously carry out pressing and fitting operations, thereby improving pressing and fitting efficiency; and it adopts an automatic material picking method for picking and feeding, thereby improving production efficiency.

[0032] Example:

[0033] See appendix Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides an automatic insulator pressing device, including a positioning unit 2, a pressing unit 3, and a material handling unit 4 mounted on a mounting base 1. A groove 6 is provided on the side of the material handling unit 4 away from the positioning unit 2, and the groove 6 corresponds to a material handling gripper 401. The groove 6 and gripper 401 correspond to each other, meaning that when the gripper 401 moves to the side away from the positioning unit 2, it corresponds to the groove 6 below, allowing the product to be placed into the groove 6. The gripper 401 is made of a flexible material, making it less likely to damage the product during handling. A through-beam photoelectric switch 7 is provided on one side of the mounting base 1. The photoelectric switch 7 can detect whether the operator has touched the device, allowing for immediate pause of equipment operation and improving operational safety. A central control unit 8 is also provided on the mounting base 1, electrically connected to the positioning unit 2, pressing unit 3, material handling unit 4, photoelectric sensor 5, and photoelectric switch 7. The control unit is used to regulate and control the normal operation of the equipment.

[0034] See appendix Figure 2 Appendix Figure 3 and attached Figure 4 As shown, the positioning unit 2 includes a rotating disk 21, on which several evenly distributed pressing stations 22 are provided; the positioning unit 2 can fix the product in position, which is convenient for pressing.

[0035] The pressing station 22 includes a pressing positioning post 220. The upper end of the pressing positioning post 220 is provided with a mounting groove 221 for placing the product to be pressed. The pressing positioning post 220 is fitted with a tensioning disc 222 and a clamping ring 223 (the clamping ring 223 includes, but is not limited to, elastic structures such as rubber rings). The clamping ring 223 is located above the tensioning disc 222, which is located above the rotating disc 21. The middle part of the tensioning disc 222 is provided with a mounting hole 224 for mounting the pressing positioning post 220. The upper end face of the tensioning disc 222 is provided with several guide grooves 225. Each guide groove 225 is evenly distributed around the mounting hole 224 and is opened radially along the mounting hole 224. Each guide groove 225 is provided with a movable guide ball 226. The distances from the two ends of the guide groove 225 to the mounting hole 224 are different. When the pressing positioning post 220 is in its initial state, the guide ball 226 is located at the end of the guide groove 225 near the mounting hole 224; when the pressing positioning post 220 is pressed down, the guide ball 226 moves towards the end of the guide groove 225 away from the mounting hole 224. The pressing positioning post can rotate within the tensioning disc 222.

[0036] A positioning cover 229 is provided at the upper end of the pressing positioning post 220. A stepped hole is provided in the middle of the positioning cover 229, and a clamping ring 223 is embedded in the step of the stepped hole. The clamping ring 223 is embedded in the stepped hole in the middle of the positioning cover 229, which facilitates installation and ensures structural stability. The lower diameter of the pressing positioning post 220 is smaller than its upper diameter, and an annular groove corresponding to the guide ball 226 is formed in the lower part of the pressing positioning post 220. The rotating disk 21 is connected to a servo motor, which is located inside the mounting base 1. Using a direct-drive servo motor connected to the rotating disk 21 can improve positioning accuracy.

[0037] The pressing station 22 also includes several springs 227, which are evenly distributed at the lower end of the pressing positioning post 220. The lower end of the pressing positioning post 220 has an arc groove corresponding to the spring 227, and the upper end of the spring 227 is provided with a pressure ball 228, the upper end of which abuts against the corresponding arc groove. The springs 227 at the lower end of the pressing positioning post 220 provide a buffering effect during pressing.

[0038] See appendix Figure 1 As shown, a photoelectric sensor 5 is installed in the center of the rotating disk 21. The photoelectric sensor 5 is fixedly mounted in the center of the rotating disk 21 by a bracket and does not rotate with the disk 21. The photoelectric sensor 5 is used to detect each pressing station 22, facilitating the recording of loading and unloading. The photoelectric sensor 5 is model CX-442. This type of sensor is characterized by a long detection distance, short response time, and suitability for high-precision position detection. It also has a self-diagnostic function, which can remind the equipment to perform maintenance.

[0039] Turn on the central control start switch and manually place the product to be pressed on the pressing station 22. After the operator removes his / her hand, the equipment starts running. When the pressing station 22 moves to the bottom of the punch, the punch presses down and presses the product automatically. After pressing is completed, the rotating disk 21 rotates to the material picking unit 4 and automatically picks up the material through the material picking claw 401 and sends it to the next process.

[0040] When the RF connector and insulator are crimped together by the punch, the crimping positioning post 220 descends and the guide ball 226 enters the far end of the guide groove 225. After the crimping is completed, the guide ball 226 and the crimping positioning post 220 are reset by the action of the spring 227.

[0041] See appendix Figure 5 As shown, the press-fit unit 3 includes a mounting base 301 for installing the punch. The mounting base 301 is vertically movable on a vertical guide rail 302. The position of the punch corresponds to the press-fit station 22. The correspondence between the punch and the press-fit station 22 means that each press-fit station 22 can rotate to pass under the punch, which can meet the pressing operation of the punch at the press-fit station 22. The press-fit unit 3 can press the product to the designated position. The punch is fixed on the mounting base 301 and is not shown in the figure.

[0042] See appendix Figure 6 As shown, the material handling unit 4 includes a material handling gripper 401 that can move up and down. The material handling gripper 401 is mounted on a swing arm 402 and is correspondingly positioned with the pressing station 22. The correspondence between the material handling gripper 401 and the pressing station 22 means that each pressing station 22 can be rotated to the lower end of the stroke range of the material handling gripper 401, which can satisfy the material handling gripper 401 to handle material at each pressing station 22.

[0043] The material gripper 401 is mounted on a vertical mounting plate 403, which moves up and down. (The mounting plate 403 is equipped with a vertical guide rail. The material gripper 401 is connected to the guide rail via a slider and moves linearly on the guide rail via a cylinder.) There are two swing arms 402 that are parallel to each other. The mounting plate 403 is connected to the two swing arms 402 via bearings. When the swing arms 402 swing left and right, they move the mounting plate 403 in both left and right and up and down directions, while always maintaining a vertical position.

[0044] Two swing arms 402 are connected to a driving wheel 404 and a driven wheel 405 respectively. The driving wheel 404 and the driven wheel 405 are arranged vertically and connected by a synchronous belt 406. The driving wheel 404 is connected to a motor, and the driving wheel 404 drives the driven wheel 405 through the synchronous belt 406, thereby making the two swing arms 402 rotate synchronously, realizing the picking up and feeding of materials by the picking gripper 401.

[0045] One side of the timing belt 406 is equipped with an adjustable roller 407 that can move left and right. The adjustable roller 407 can adjust the tension of the timing belt 406 to achieve better transmission.

[0046] The automatic insulator pressing equipment designed in this utility model adopts a pressing and positioning structure to position the products to be pressed and fitted, which has high positioning accuracy; it adopts an automatic pressing method, which is easy to operate, has high pressing efficiency and good accuracy, and ensures consistency; it adopts a multi-station feeding method, which can continuously carry out pressing and fitting operations, thereby improving pressing and fitting efficiency; and it adopts an automatic material picking method for picking and feeding, thereby improving production efficiency.

[0047] The above embodiments are only for illustrating the technical concept and features of this utility model. Their purpose is to enable those skilled in the art to understand the content of this utility model and implement it. They cannot be used to limit the protection scope of this utility model.
