Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of assembly equipment technology, specifically to an assembly equipment for a toggle switch lever spring. Background Technology

[0002] As a fundamental component widely used in electronic devices, the assembly quality of the core components of a toggle switch—the spring and the lever—directly affects the switch's reliability and lifespan. Currently, the industry commonly uses a manual method for spring pressing. The specific procedure involves the operator using simple tools such as tweezers to position the miniature spring into the groove at the end of the lever, and then using a manual pressure device or fingers to press the spring to deform it and lock it into the predetermined position. This traditional assembly method suffers from poor assembly accuracy stability, low assembly efficiency, and difficulty in controlling product consistency in practical applications. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The primary objective of this invention is to provide a high-precision, high-efficiency toggle switch lever spring assembly device.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a toggle switch lever spring assembly device, including a turntable assembly, a spring feeding assembly, a spring transferring assembly, a lever feeding assembly, a lever transferring assembly, and a clamping assembly. The turntable assembly is rotatable around its own axis and is provided with a spring feeding position, a lever feeding position, and a clamping position. The spring feeding assembly includes a first feeding groove and a spring distributing assembly. The spring distributing assembly is provided with a first distributing channel, a first distributing component, and a first stop component. The first distributing component is rotatable around its own axis. The body axis rotates, and the first material distribution component has a first receiving groove opened along its radial direction. The two ends of the first material distribution channel are respectively connected to the first feeding groove and the first receiving groove. The first stop is set on the outside of the first material distribution channel and can extend into the first material distribution channel. The spring material transfer assembly can move back and forth between the spring material distribution assembly and the spring material loading position. The lever loading assembly is set on one side of the lever loading position. The lever material transfer assembly can move back and forth between the lever loading assembly and the lever loading position. The clamping assembly is set on the clamping position.

[0005] As can be seen from the above scheme, the rotary design of the turntable assembly enables cyclical operation of the spring feeding station, the lever feeding station, and the clamping station. Combined with the coordinated actions of each material transfer component, it can continuously and accurately complete the feeding, positioning, and clamping assembly of springs and levers, achieving a high degree of automation and significantly improving assembly efficiency. The spring distribution component adopts a linkage design of a rotary distribution element and a stop element. The rotation of the distribution element separates the springs one by one, while the first stop element precisely controls the opening and closing of the distribution channel, effectively preventing spring stacking or jamming, ensuring stable delivery of individual springs, and improving feeding reliability. The components of this invention are distributed around the turntable station, resulting in a compact structure and clear action sequence. This reduces the equipment footprint and shortens the material transfer distance through process centralization, further reducing the assembly cycle time. The reciprocating movement design of the spring transfer component and the lever transfer component enables precise positioning. Combined with the vertical pressure action of the clamping component, it ensures consistent assembly position and clamping force of the springs and levers, avoiding human error and improving product yield.

[0006] A further embodiment includes a first mounting base, a first distributing drive device, and a first stop drive device. The first distributing component straddles the first mounting base, and the first distributing drive device can drive the first distributing component to rotate.

[0024] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. Detailed Implementation

[0025] See Figure 1 , Figure 8 and Figure 9The toggle switch lever spring assembly equipment provided in this embodiment includes a turntable assembly 1, a spring feeding assembly 2, a spring transferring assembly 3, a lever feeding assembly 4, a lever transferring assembly 5, and a clamping assembly 6.

[0026] The turntable assembly 1 includes a turntable 11, a turntable drive device 12, and eight tooling assemblies 13. The turntable drive device 12 drives the turntable 11 to rotate around its own axis, preferably clockwise, with a stop-start mechanism. The eight tooling assemblies 13 are evenly spaced and arranged around the circumference of the turntable 11. Along its rotation direction, the turntable 11 is sequentially arranged with a spring loading position 14, other positions, a lever loading position 15, other positions, a clamping position 16, other positions, a unloading position 17, and an air blowing position 18. The other positions can be empty or inspection positions; no limitation is made here. Each of the eight positions corresponds one-to-one with one of the eight tooling assemblies 13, and the eight tooling assemblies 13 sequentially enter the eight positions according to the assembly sequence.

[0027] The spring feeding assembly 2 is located outside the spring feeding position 14. The spring feeding assembly 2 includes a first vibrating plate 21, a first feeding trough 22, and a spring distributing assembly 23. The first feeding trough 22 is connected to the discharge end of the first vibrating plate 21, and the spring distributing assembly 23 is located on the end of the first feeding trough 22 away from the first vibrating plate 21.

[0028] The spring transfer assembly 3 can move back and forth between the spring distribution assembly 23 and the spring loading position 14 to transfer the spring workpieces 10 one by one into the tooling assembly 13 of the spring loading position 14.

[0029] The lever feeding assembly 4 is located outside the lever feeding position 15. The lever feeding assembly 4 includes a second vibrating plate 41, a second feeding trough 42, and a lever distributing assembly 43. The second feeding trough 42 is connected to the discharge end of the second vibrating plate 41, and the lever distributing assembly 43 is located on the end of the second feeding trough 42 away from the second vibrating plate 41.

[0030] The lever transfer assembly 5 can move back and forth between the lever distribution assembly 43 and the lever loading position 15 to transfer the lever workpieces 20 one by one into the tooling assembly 13 of the lever loading position 15, and pre-press them with the spring workpieces 10.

[0031] The clamping assembly 6 is positioned above the clamping position 16 and is used to move downwards to press the lever workpiece 20 and the spring workpiece 10 together.

[0032] The unloading position 17 and the air blowing position 18 are sequentially located downstream of the clamping position 16. The unloading position 17 is used to facilitate the unloading component of the external device to remove the assembled workpiece. If the lever workpiece 20 and the spring workpiece 10 are not pressed into place, the unloading component will only remove the lever workpiece 20 above the spring workpiece 10. At this time, the spring workpiece 10 will still remain on the tooling assembly 13. In order to avoid the spring workpiece 10 from obstructing the normal loading and assembly of subsequent workpieces, this embodiment provides an air blowing component 7. The air blowing component 7 is located on the air blowing position 18. The air blowing component 7 blows air into the air blowing position 18 to blow away the spring workpiece 10 that may remain on the tooling assembly 13.

[0033] This invention utilizes automated operations for the loading, pressing, and unloading of springs and levers, which improves assembly efficiency and saves manpower.

[0034] To further improve assembly efficiency, this embodiment uses two spring feeding assemblies 2 and two lever feeding assemblies 4, arranged adjacent to each other. Each spring feeding assembly 2 has two first feeding slots 22, and each lever feeding assembly 4 has two second feeding slots 42.

[0035] See Figures 2 to 4 The spring feeding assembly 2 also includes a first linear vibration device 24 and a first extension 25. The first extension 25 is disposed on the first linear vibration device 24. The first feeding groove 22 is provided on both sides of the first extension 25 in the width direction. The two first feeding grooves 22 extend along the length direction of the first extension 25.

[0036] The spring-loaded material distribution assembly 23 includes a first fixed base 231, a first mounting base 232, a first material distribution component 233, a first material distribution drive device 234, a first stop component 235, and a first stop drive device 236. The first mounting base 232 is disposed on the first fixed base 231 and on the discharge end of the first feeding trough 22. The first material distribution component 233 straddles the first mounting base 232, and the first material distribution drive device 234 can drive the first material distribution component 233 to rotate around its own axis. Specifically, the first material distribution drive device 234 includes a first cylinder 2341, a first rack 2342, and a first gear 2343. The first rack 2342 is fixed to the drive end of the first cylinder 2341, and the first gear 2343 is coaxially sleeved on the rotating shaft of the first material distribution component 233, and the first gear 2343 meshes with the first rack 2342. The first cylinder 2341 drives the second rack 4342 to perform linear reciprocating motion, which in turn drives the first gear 2343 and the first material distribution component 233 to perform forward and reverse rotational motion.

[0037] The first material distribution component 233 has two first receiving grooves 2331 arranged along its axial direction. The two first receiving grooves 2331 are connected to the two first feeding grooves 22 in a one-to-one correspondence. The first receiving grooves 2331 extend radially along the first material distribution component 233, and the opening of the first receiving groove 2331 protrudes through the peripheral wall of the first material distribution component 233. The groove depth of the first receiving groove 2331 is slightly less than the length of the spring workpiece 10, so that one end of the spring workpiece 10 can protrude from the opening of the first receiving groove 2331.

[0038] The first material distribution channel 2322 is disposed within the first mounting base 232 and on the side of the first material distribution component 233 near the first feeding trough 22. Both ends of the first material distribution channel 2322 are connected to the first feeding trough 22 and the first receiving trough 2331, respectively. The first mounting base 232 has a first slide rail 2321 above the first material distribution channel 2322, which intersects perpendicularly with and connects to the first material distribution channel 2322.

[0039] The first stop 235 is disposed on the outside of the first material distribution channel 2322. The lower end of the first stop 235 is inserted into the first slide rail 2321. The first stop driving device 236 drives the first stop 235 to move towards the first material distribution channel 2322, and the first stop 235 may even extend into the first material distribution channel 2322. When the lower end of the first stop 235 extends into the first material distribution channel 2322 or when the lower end of the first stop 235 just presses down on a spring workpiece 10, it can stop the subsequent spring workpieces 10, preventing them from continuing to move forward, thus playing a material distribution role.

[0040] In the extending direction of the first material distribution channel 2322, the distance between the intersection of the first slide 2321 and the first material distribution channel 2322 and the opening of the first receiving groove 2331 is slightly less than the length of the spring workpiece 10, ensuring that after the first spring workpiece 10 enters the first receiving groove 2331, the next spring workpiece 10 does not pass through the intersection, or at least the rear end of the next spring workpiece 10 is just located at the intersection, so that the first stop 235 can stop or just press down on the next spring workpiece 10 to prevent it from moving.

[0041] A first wedge 237 is detachably provided on the first material distribution component 233. The first wedge 237 extends along the axial direction of the first material distribution component 233, and two first receiving grooves 2331 are both provided in the first wedge 237.

[0042] The first material distribution component 233 is also provided with a first through groove 2332. The first through groove 2332 extends circumferentially along the first material distribution component 233. The two ends of the first wedge block 237 pass through the two first through grooves 2332 respectively, which facilitates subsequent installation and correction.

[0043] See Figure 5The spring material transfer assembly 3 includes a spring material transfer fixing seat 31, a first spring material transfer driving device 32, a second spring material transfer driving device 33, a third spring material transfer driving device 34, a first movable seat 35, a second movable seat 36, a third movable seat 37, two first spring picking assemblies 38, and two second spring picking assemblies 39.

[0044] A first movable seat 35 is mounted on a spring-loaded material-fixing seat 31. A first spring-loaded material-driving device 32 drives the first movable seat 35 to move back and forth along a first direction. A second movable seat 36 is mounted on the first movable seat 35. A second spring-loaded material-driving device 33 drives the second movable seat 36 to move up and down. A third movable seat 37 and two first spring-loaded material-picking assemblies 38 are both mounted on the second movable seat 36. A third spring-loaded material-driving device 34 drives the third movable seat 37 to move back and forth along a second direction, which is perpendicular to the first direction. Two second spring-loaded material-picking assemblies 39 are mounted on the third movable seat 37. Both the two first spring-loaded material-picking assemblies 38 and the two second spring-loaded material-picking assemblies 39 are arranged along the second direction. The first spring-loaded material-picking assemblies 38 and 39 can be pneumatic clamps. The first spring-loaded material-picking assembly 38 includes two first clamping blocks that can move closer to or further away from each other. The lengths of the two first clamping blocks can be equal or unequal; in this embodiment, the latter is preferred. The structure of the second spring-loaded material-picking assembly 39 is the same as that of the first spring-loaded material-picking assembly 38, and will not be described again here.

[0045] See Figure 6 The lever feeding assembly 4 also includes a second linear vibration device 44 and a second extension 45. The second extension 45 is disposed on the second linear vibration device 44. A second feeding groove 42 is provided on both sides of the second extension 45 in the width direction. Both second feeding grooves 42 extend along the length direction of the first extension 25.

[0046] The lever-type material distribution assembly 43 includes a second fixed base 431, a second mounting base 432, a second material distribution component 433, a second material distribution drive device 434, a second stop component 435, and a second stop drive device 436. The second mounting base 432 is disposed on the second fixed base 431 and on the discharge end of the second feeding trough 42. The second material distribution component 433 is straddling the second mounting base 432, and the second material distribution drive device 434 can drive the second material distribution component 433 to rotate around its own axis. Specifically, the second material distribution drive device 434 includes a second cylinder 4341, a second rack 4342, and a second gear 4343. The second rack 4342 is fixedly connected to the drive end of the second cylinder 4341, and the second gear 4343 is coaxially sleeved on the rotation shaft of the second material distribution component 433, and the second gear 4343 meshes with the second rack 4342. The second cylinder 4341 drives the second rack 4342 to perform linear reciprocating motion, which in turn drives the second gear 4343 and the second material distribution component 433 to perform forward and reverse rotational motion.

[0047] The second material distribution component 433 is provided with two second receiving grooves 4331 arranged along its axial direction. The two second receiving grooves 4331 are connected to the two second feeding grooves 42 in a one-to-one correspondence. The second receiving grooves 4331 extend radially along the second material distribution component 433, and the groove opening of the second receiving groove 4331 protrudes through the peripheral wall of the second material distribution component 433. The groove depth of the second receiving groove 4331 is slightly less than the length of the lever workpiece 20, so that one end of the lever workpiece 20 can protrude from the groove opening of the second receiving groove 4331.

[0048] A second material distribution channel is provided inside the second mounting base 432, and the second material distribution channel is located on the side of the second material distribution component 433 near the second feeding trough 42. The two ends of the second material distribution channel are respectively connected to the second feeding trough 42 and the second receiving trough 4331. A second slide is provided above the second material distribution channel in the second mounting base 432, and the second slide intersects and connects perpendicularly with the second material distribution channel.

[0049] The second stop 435 is disposed on the outside of the second material distribution channel. The lower end of the second stop 435 is inserted into the second slide rail. The second stop drive device 436 can drive the second stop 435 to move towards the second material distribution channel, and the second stop 435 can even extend into the second material distribution channel. When the lower end of the second stop 435 extends into the second material distribution channel or when the lower end of the second stop 435 just presses down on a lever workpiece 20, it can stop the subsequent lever workpiece 20, preventing it from continuing to move forward, thus achieving the function of material distribution.

[0050] A second wedge 437 is detachably provided on the second material distribution component 433. The second wedge 437 extends along the axial direction of the second material distribution component 433, and two second receiving grooves 4331 are both provided in the second wedge 437.

[0051] The second material distribution component 433 is also provided with a second through groove 4332. The second through groove 4332 extends circumferentially along the second material distribution component 433. The two ends of the second wedge block 437 pass through the two second through grooves 4332 respectively, which facilitates subsequent installation and correction.

[0062] At the clamping position 16, the clamping seat 63 of the clamping assembly 6 first moves downward to pre-press the lever workpiece 20. Then, the lifting assembly 9 first lifts the tooling assembly 13 upward, pushing the spring workpiece 10 towards the lever workpiece 20 to achieve a fixed connection between the two. This embodiment uses a method of pressing down first and then lifting up to achieve spring pressing, which can effectively prevent the spring workpiece from bending and popping out, making the clamping process more stable and effectively reducing the failure rate.

[0063] In summary, this utility model, through the rotational design of the turntable assembly 1, achieves cyclical operation of the spring feeding station, the lever feeding station, and the clamping station. Combined with the coordinated actions of each material transfer assembly, it can continuously and accurately complete the precise feeding, positioning, and clamping assembly of springs and levers, achieving a high degree of automation and significantly improving assembly efficiency. The spring distribution assembly 23 adopts a linkage design of a rotary distribution component and a stop component. The rotation of the first distribution component 233 achieves the sequential separation of springs, while the first stop component 235 can precisely control the opening and closing of the distribution channel, effectively preventing… To prevent spring stacking or jamming, this invention ensures stable conveying of individual springs and improves feeding reliability. The components of this invention are distributed around the 11 stations of the turntable, resulting in a compact structure and clear operational sequence. This reduces the equipment's footprint and shortens material transfer distance through process centralization, further reducing assembly cycle time. The reciprocating movement design of the spring transfer component 3 and the lever transfer component 5 enables precise positioning. Combined with the vertical pressure action of the clamping component 6, this ensures consistent assembly position and clamping force between the spring and the lever, avoiding human error and improving product yield.
