[0019] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of this utility model.

[0020] Example:

[0021] refer to Figures 1-4 The automatic pressing and folding device for connector conductive sheets shown includes a machine base 1. A feeding channel 2 and a feeding mechanism 3 are fixedly connected to the machine base 1. A pressing mechanism is provided on one side of the feeding end of the feeding channel 2 on the machine base 1. The pressing mechanism includes a left pressing cylinder 401, a left pressing head 402, a right pressing cylinder 403, and a right pressing head 404. A folding mechanism is fixedly connected to the pressing mechanism on the machine base 1. The folding mechanism includes a base 501, a misalignment cylinder 502, a lifting slide 503, a translation slide 504, a motor 505, a turntable 506, an eccentric wheel 507, a gripper cylinder 508, and an intermediate plate 509. The feeding channel 2 is provided with clearance grooves at the feeding mechanism 3, the pressing mechanism, and the folding mechanism. The intermediate plate 509 is provided with rectangular grooves on both the upper and lower sides. The intermediate plate 509 is located between the two grippers of the gripper cylinder 508.

[0022] An elastic pre-compression component can be installed on the feeding channel 2 at the pressing mechanism and the bending mechanism. The elastic pre-compression component can pre-compress the connector housing at the pressing mechanism and the bending mechanism during the connector feeding process. The elastic pre-compression component includes a seat plate 601, a pre-compression plate 602 and a spring. The pre-compression plate 602 can be pushed up by the connection area when the connector is feeding, and the pre-compression plate 602 can press down on the connector by compressing the spring.

[0023] Left press-fit cylinder 401 and right press-fit cylinder 403 are located on both sides of the feeding channel 2, respectively. During the assembly process, left press-fit cylinder 401 and right press-fit cylinder 403 push the connector and waste sheet parts respectively to complete the assembly of the conductive sheet and connector. The connector structure is referenced. Figure 5 .

[0024] The misalignment cylinder 502 is used to drive the translation slide 504 to approach and move away from the feeding channel 2. During this process, the eccentric wheel 507 is always located in the strip groove of the lifting slide 503. The motor 505 is used to drive the turntable 506 to rotate. When the turntable 506 rotates, the eccentric wheel 507 will drive the lifting slide 503 to move up and down rapidly.

[0025] When the connector is loaded to the debinding station, the waste piece on the connector is located in the rectangular groove. The clearance groove opened in the intermediate plate 509 is used to make way for the action of the gripper cylinder 508 to hold the waste piece 9. The gripper of the gripper cylinder clamps the waste piece 9 on the intermediate plate 509. Through the rapid lifting and floating of the lifting slide 503, the connection between the waste piece 9 and the conductive piece 8 is broken.

[0026] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: During processing, conductive sheet material (including conductive sheet 8 and waste sheet 9, which are still connected at this time) is pre-inserted into connector 7. The connector is sequentially fed from the feed port to the pressing station, the bending station and the discharge end by the feeding mechanism 3. At the pressing station, the conductive sheet material pre-inserted into the connector and the waste sheet 9 protrude from the relief groove at this time. The upper and lower sides of the waste sheet 9 are still supported and guided by the feeding channel 2. At this time, the left pressing head 4 is driven by the left pressing cylinder 401 and the right pressing cylinder 403. 02 and the right pressure head 404 completely press the conductive sheet into the connector 7; then when the connector 7 flows to the folding station, the misalignment cylinder 502 drives the translation slide 504 to slide towards the feeding channel 2. The waste sheet on the connector is located in the rectangular groove. The gripper of the gripper cylinder 508 clamps the waste sheet 9 on the intermediate plate 509. Through the rapid lifting and floating of the lifting slide 503, the connection between the waste sheet 9 and the conductive sheet 8 is broken. A material box for collecting the waste sheet 9 at the folding station can be set on the machine 1. Thus, the assembly and folding of the connector are completed.

[0027] The above embodiments are used to further illustrate the present invention, but do not limit the present invention to these specific embodiments. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be understood as being within the protection scope of the present invention.
