Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of connector assembly equipment technology, and in particular to a USB connector assembly equipment. Background Technology
[0002] In today's digital age, consumer electronics products such as smartphones, tablets, laptops, and headphones are experiencing explosive growth and diversified development. As a key interface for data transmission and power supply between devices, USB connectors are widely used. Taking smartphones as an example, charging, data synchronization, external displays, and other accessories all rely on USB connectors. With the popularization of 5G technology, the demand for high-speed data transmission in mobile phones has increased significantly. USB 3.1, USB 3.2, and even USB 4.0 connectors have become standard, ensuring smooth operation of high-definition video transmission and fast copying of large files. According to statistics, billions of smartphones are shipped globally every year, and each phone is equipped with at least one USB connector. This has led to a continuous increase in the market demand for USB connectors, placing extremely high demands on their assembly efficiency and quality.
[0003] Currently, connector assembly equipment on the market mainly consists of positioning and gripping components and assembly execution components. Early USB connector assembly relied heavily on manual operation. Workers used simple tools to assemble the connector components, such as the shell, core, and terminals. This method was highly dependent on worker skill and fatigue levels. Manual assembly was slow; a skilled worker could only assemble a few hundred connectors a day, which was insufficient for large-scale production. Furthermore, manual operation had limited precision. When assembling the core and shell, uneven force and positioning deviations could easily lead to dimensional defects, such as excessively large or small gaps between the core and shell, affecting the connector's waterproof and dustproof performance and data transmission stability. Statistics show that the defect rate of manually assembled products is as high as 10% to 15%, wasting raw materials and increasing subsequent testing and rework costs. While the emergence of mechanized assembly equipment has solved the problems of traditional manual assembly… The problem of low efficiency stemmed from the fact that the control systems of traditional assembly equipment at the time were mostly simple relay controls or basic programmable logic controllers (PLCs). Their computing power and control algorithms were limited. Relay control systems could only achieve simple logic control and could not accurately adjust the transmission speed and distance. Early PLC control systems, although capable of a certain degree of automation, were inadequate when dealing with complex speed curves and precise distance control. In the process of variable-speed transmission of components, they could not accurately plan and execute speed changes according to the assembly process requirements, resulting in unstable transmission speeds and affecting the assembly accuracy of components. Moreover, the communication efficiency between these control systems and the transmission system was low, and the data transmission delay was large, further reducing the control accuracy of transmission speed and distance.
