Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of assembly fixture technology, specifically to an assembly fixture for an automatic lighter head assembly device. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, the assembly of lighter heads in the market is entirely done manually. Because the lighter head consists of many parts—seven components in total: the head base, flame adjusting ring, rocker arm, spring, flint, grinding wheel, and fan—and some parts are small and difficult to handle, requiring manual assembly with pliers. Considering the high cost of manual assembly, lighter head assembly is mostly outsourced to organizations or individuals with low labor costs and sufficient time. However, the defect rate of the assembled lighter heads is extremely high, around 5%, resulting in significant resource waste. In today's industrial environment where labor costs are rising annually, and export prices of industrial products are also increasing, our products' competitiveness is declining. Whether from the perspective of processing costs, defect rate, or processing efficiency, using manual labor for this task is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and inefficient. Therefore, this paper proposes an assembly fixture for an automated lighter head assembly system to address these problems. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0021] Please see Figure 1-3 As shown, this utility model provides an assembly fixture for an automatic lighter head assembly device, including a support base 1, a fixture protrusion 2 on the support base 1, and a lighter head 16 on the fixture protrusion 2. A limiting guide post 12 is inserted into the fixture protrusion 2, and a slider mounting seat 7 and a connecting block 11 are respectively provided at both ends of the limiting guide post 12. A pad block 10, a positioning slider 9 and a pressing block 8 are respectively provided on the upper part of the slider mounting seat 7, and the other end of the positioning slider 9 is placed on the fixture protrusion 2. A guide rod 5 and a stripping spring 6 are inserted in the middle of both the support base 1 and the fixture protrusion 2, and the guide rod 5 is inserted in the middle of the T-shaped positioning post 4. The stripping spring 6 is sleeved on the guide rod 5 and the T-shaped positioning post 4, and a support plate 3 is provided below the T-shaped positioning post 4.

[0022] In this embodiment, a positioning protrusion 13 is fixedly connected to the upper center of the fixture protrusion 2, and a top block 14 is provided above the positioning protrusion 13. A lighter head 16 is installed outside the positioning protrusion 13, and the bottom of the lighter head 16 is tightly fitted with the top of the fixture protrusion 2.

[0023] Furthermore, the positioning protrusion 13, the fixture protrusion 2 and the support base 1 are all provided with through holes 15, and the material stripping spring 6 is inserted into the through hole 15. At the same time, the guide rod 5 is inserted into the through hole 15 and the material stripping spring 6.

[0024] The lighter head 16 is secured to the positioning protrusion 13 on the top of the jig protrusion 2, so that the lighter head 16 is fixed above the jig protrusion 2 for installation. At the same time, the release spring 6 is inserted into the through hole 15 in the positioning protrusion 13, the jig protrusion 2, and the support base 1. When the lighter head 16 is installed, the structure above the support base 1 will press down, and the bottom of the lighter head 16 will compress the upper part of the release spring 6. When the release spring 6 returns to its original position, the entire lighter head 16 can be pushed out.

[0025] In this embodiment, the top of the ejector spring 6 is flush with the positioning protrusion 13, and the top of the ejector spring 6 is positioned and attached to the middle of the lighter head 16 below.

[0026] Furthermore, two slidable guide posts 12 are inserted into both sides of the jig protrusion 2, and the two slidable guide posts 12 are symmetrical.

[0027] Furthermore, one end of the limiting guide post 12 is inserted into both sides of the fixed connection slider mounting base 7, and the other end of the limiting guide post 12 is inserted into both sides of the fixed connection connecting block 11. At the same time, the inner side of the slider mounting base 7 is in contact with the side of the fixture protrusion 2.

[0028] A limiting guide post 12 is inserted into the jig protrusion 2. Under external force, the limiting guide post 12 can move back and forth within the jig protrusion 2. Since the limiting guide post 12 is provided with a slider mounting seat 7 and a connecting block 11 at both ends, the components provided above the slider mounting seat 7 can be used to install the lighter head 16.

[0029] In this embodiment, a slot 701 is provided on the top of the slider mounting base 7, and the pad block 10 and one end of the positioning slider 9 are inserted into the slot 701. At the same time, the pad block 10, one end of the positioning slider 9 and the slot 701 are all inserted below the clamping block 8.

[0030] Furthermore, the other end of the positioning slider 9 is provided with a pressure head 901, and the pressure head 901 is inserted into the lighter head 16.

[0031] The positioning slider 9 located above the slider mounting base 7 has a pressure head 901 at its inner end. The pressure head 901 is inserted into the lighter head 16 to locate and support the lighter head 16 when installing the grinding wheel.

[0032] Working principle:

[0033] A fixture protrusion 2 is provided above the support base 1, and a positioning protrusion 13 is provided in the middle of the upper part of the fixture protrusion 2. The positioning protrusion 13 is inserted into the bottom of the lighter head 16 to stabilize the lighter head 16 above the fixture protrusion 2 for installation. A limiting guide post 12 is provided inside the fixture protrusion 2, and a slider mounting seat 7 and a connecting block 11 are respectively provided at both ends of the limiting guide post 12. A pad block 10, a positioning slider 9 and a pressing block 8 are respectively provided above the slider mounting seat 7. At the same time, the pressing head 901 provided at the inner end of the positioning slider 9 is inserted into the lighter head 16. Inside the lighter head 16, after the entire structure is installed on the equipment, the slider mounting seat 7 is connected to the equipment, and the limiting guide post 12 allows the slider mounting seat 7, the limiting guide post 12 and the connecting block 11 to move back and forth on both sides of the fixture protrusion 2. When the lighter head 16 is being installed, the pressure head 901 is inserted into the underside of the grinding wheel inside the lighter head 16 to position and support the grinding wheel during installation. A top block 14 is provided above the positioning protrusion 13 to support the rocker plate inside the lighter head 16 and prevent damage or deformation during installation.

[0034] In addition, through holes 15 are provided in the positioning protrusion 13, the fixture protrusion 2, and the support base 1. The stripping spring 6 and the guide rod 5 are inserted into the through holes 15. At the same time, a T-shaped positioning post 4 and a support plate 3 are provided below the guide rod 5. The stripping spring 6 is sleeved on the outside of the T-shaped positioning post 4. In this way, the support plate 3 supports the stripping spring 6 from below. During installation, the lighter head 16, the support base 1, and the structure above the support base 1 are pressed down, compressing the stripping spring 6. After installation, the equipment on the top of the overall structure is removed. At this time, the stripping spring 6 needs to be restored to push the lighter head 16 out from above the fixture protrusion 2 and the installed lighter head 16 enters the conveyor chain for transportation.
