[0001] This utility model relates to the field of spring insertion technology for washing machine control boards, specifically an automatic spring insertion machine for washing machine control boards. Background Technology

[0002] In an era where the Internet of Things (IoT) is gaining popularity, home appliance control boards are also incorporating IoT technology. These home control boards not only refer to those used in homes but also include many commercial control boards. They can be broadly categorized as follows: home appliance IoT controllers, smart home control systems, RFID wireless curtain control boards, cabinet-type air conditioner control boards, electric water heater control boards, household range hood control boards, washing machine control boards, humidifier control boards, dishwasher control boards, commercial soymilk maker control boards, ceramic stove control boards, automatic door control boards, electric lock control boards, and smart access control systems. For example, washing machine control boards require springs to be inserted during manufacturing.

[0003] The existing automatic spring insertion machine for washing machine control boards requires operators to place the spring-filled boxes one by one onto the conveyor belt. However, operators may miss some or place them at large intervals, leading to errors in the subsequent spring insertion process. In addition, operators are prone to fatigue after working for a long time. Therefore, it is necessary to optimize the automatic spring insertion machine for washing machine control boards through technological innovation and design. Utility Model Content

[0004] Existing automatic spring inserting machines for washing machine control boards require operators to place spring-filled boxes one by one onto the conveyor belt. However, operators may miss some or place them at inconsistent intervals, leading to errors in spring retrieval by the subsequent spring inserting machine. Furthermore, operators are prone to fatigue after prolonged work. To address these issues, this application provides an automatic spring inserting machine for washing machine control boards, incorporating a lifting mechanism to raise the boxes and a pushing mechanism to push them into the machine body. This eliminates the need for operators to manually insert each box, reducing workload and improving feeding efficiency.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by the embodiments of this application to solve its technical problem is:

[0006] The washing machine control board with automatic spring insertion mechanism includes:

[0007] The spring inserting machine body has a feeding cabinet connected to one side via a conveyor belt. The feeding cabinet has a door hinged to the front and a discharge port on the back.

[0008] The U-shaped panel has a placement plate on top, and several material boxes are provided on the top of the placement plate. Fixing blocks are fixed on both sides of the interior of the cabinet.

[0009] A lifting mechanism, located on a fixed block, is used to drive the placement plate to move up and down;

[0010] A pushing mechanism, located on both sides inside the cabinet, is used to push the material box.

[0011] In one possible implementation, the lifting mechanism includes slots on both sides of a U-shaped plate, a rectangular slot on the side of the fixed block facing the U-shaped plate, a rectangular block sliding inside the rectangular slot, the rectangular block passing through the slot and fixedly connected to the placement plate, a lead screw inside the rectangular slot, the lead screw passing through the rectangular block, a motor fixed at the bottom of the feeding cabinet, the output end of the motor passing through the bottom of the feeding cabinet and the fixed block and fixedly connected to one end of the lead screw, the other end of the lead screw being rotatably connected to the inner wall of the rectangular slot, the lead screw being threadedly connected to the rectangular block, the motor driving the lead screw to rotate, the rotation of the lead screw causing the rectangular block to move within the rectangular slot, and the rectangular block causing the material box to rise via the placement plate.

[0012] In one possible implementation, the pushing mechanism includes an electric push rod fixed to both sides of the feeding cabinet. The output end of the electric push rod is fixed with a push plate, which is slidably connected to the inner wall of the feeding cabinet. The electric push rod can drive the push plate to push the material box, so that the topmost material box moves out from the outlet.

[0013] In one possible implementation, a baffle is fixed to the side of the U-shaped plate near the discharge port. The baffle is at the same height as the U-shaped plate to prevent the top material box from moving the bottom material box when the top material box is pushed.

[0014] In one possible implementation, fixing plates are fixed on both sides inside the feeding cabinet. The bottom of the fixing plates is set with an incline. As the material box rises, the material box will move to the middle position under the influence of the incline of the fixing plates, so as to avoid misalignment of the material box.

[0015] In one possible implementation, support plates are fixed on both sides of the inner wall of the feeding cabinet at the outlet position. The end of the support plate near the material box is set with an inclined surface. The support plate can support and guide the material box, so that the material box can slide onto the conveyor belt.

[0016] In one possible implementation, the bottom of the feeding cabinet is fixed with support legs, and the bottom of each support leg is fixed with an anti-slip pad to facilitate support of the feeding cabinet.

[0017] In summary, this utility model has at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0018] 1. By setting up a lifting mechanism, the material box can be raised, and the pushing mechanism can push the material box into the body of the spring inserting machine. This eliminates the need for workers to put the material boxes into the body of the spring inserting machine one by one, reducing the workload of workers and improving the efficiency of feeding.

[0019] 2. By gradually raising the material box using a lead screw, the error in the spacing of the material box placement can be reduced, making it easier for the subsequent spring insertion machine to pick up the springs. Attached Figure Description

[0027] This embodiment describes the specific structure of the automatic spring insertion mechanism on the washing machine control board. See details below. Figures 1-5 As shown, the washing machine control board automatically inserts springs, including:

[0028] The spring insertion machine body 3 has a feeding cabinet 2 connected to one side of the spring insertion machine body 3 via a conveyor belt. The front of the feeding cabinet 2 is hinged with a cabinet door 1, and the back of the feeding cabinet 2 is provided with a discharge port 14.

[0029] U-shaped panel 4, with a placement plate 10 on the top of the U-shaped panel 4, and several material boxes 9 on the top of the placement plate 10; fixing blocks 5 are fixed on both sides inside the cabinet.

[0030] The lifting mechanism is located on the fixed block 5 and is used to drive the placement plate 10 to move up and down.

[0031] The actuating mechanism, located on both sides inside the cabinet, is used to actuate the material box 9.

[0032] When the material box 9 needs to be lifted, the lifting mechanism includes slots 15 on both sides of the U-shaped plate 4, a rectangular slot 18 on the side of the fixing block 5 facing the U-shaped plate 4, a rectangular block 16 sliding inside the rectangular slot 18, the rectangular block 16 passing through the slot 15 and fixedly connected to the placement plate 10, a lead screw 17 inside the rectangular slot 18, the lead screw 17 passing through the rectangular block 16, a motor 11 fixed at the bottom of the feeding cabinet 2, the output end of the motor 11 passing through the bottom of the feeding cabinet 2 and the fixing block 5 and fixedly connected to one end of the lead screw 17, the other end of the lead screw 17 being rotatably connected to the inner wall of the rectangular slot 18, the lead screw 17 being threadedly connected to the rectangular block 16, the motor 11 driving the lead screw 17 to rotate, the rotation of the lead screw 17 driving the rectangular block 16 to move within the rectangular slot 18, the rectangular block 16 driving the material box 9 to rise through the placement plate 10.

[0033] When it is necessary to push the material boxes 9 one by one into the spring inserter, the pushing mechanism includes electric push rods 6 fixed on both sides of the feeding cabinet 2. The output end of the electric push rod 6 is fixed with a push plate 7. The push plate 7 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the feeding cabinet 2.

[0034] Meanwhile, a baffle 12 is fixed on the side of the U-shaped plate 4 near the discharge port 14. The baffle 12 is at the same height as the U-shaped plate 4 to prevent the material box 9 at the top from moving the material box 9 at the bottom when the top material box 9 is pushed.

[0035] It is worth noting that there are fixing plates 8 on both sides inside the material supply cabinet 2. The bottom of the fixing plate 8 is set with a slope. As the material box 9 rises, the material box 9 will move to the middle position under the influence of the slope of the fixing plate 8, so as to prevent the material box 9 from being misaligned.

[0036] More importantly, support plates 13 are fixed on both sides of the inner wall of the feeding cabinet 2 at the outlet 14.

[0038] Among them, the spring insertion machine body 3 is an automatic spring insertion machine.

[0039] During operation, the operator opens cabinet door 1 and places the stacked material boxes 9 onto the placement plate 10 on the U-shaped plate 4. At this time, the placement plate 10 is in the lowest position. Cabinet door 1 is closed, and motor 11 is turned on. Motor 11 drives lead screw 17 to rotate. The rotation of lead screw 17 drives rectangular block 16 to move within rectangular groove 18. Rectangular block 16 drives material box 9 to rise through placement plate 10. When the top material box 9 exceeds the top of U-shaped plate 4, electric push rod 6 is activated. Electric push rod 6 drives push plate 7 to push material box 9. The two sides of material box 9 will slide onto support plate 13. At this time, the bottom of material box 9 will slide onto conveyor belt and enter the spring insertion machine body 3 with the conveyor belt to perform spring insertion work.

[0040] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present invention and are not intended to limit the implementation. Those skilled in the art can make other variations or modifications based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations.
