Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of tin-immersion technology, and in particular relates to a coil tin-immersion device. Background Technology
[0002] A coil typically refers to a loop of wire winding. The most common applications of coils include motors, inductors, transformers, and loop antennas. In a circuit, a coil refers to an inductor. An inductor is a coil of wires wound together, with the wires insulated from each other. The insulating tube can be hollow or contain an iron core or magnetic powder core. Inductors can be further divided into fixed inductors and variable inductors. Fixed inductor coils are simply called inductors or coils.
[0003] Currently, the tinning of coils is done manually. Operators hold the coil and immerse its terminals in molten solder, leaving it for a predetermined time before removing it. This manual tinning method is inefficient and labor-intensive. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a coil tinning device to solve the technical problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the specific technical solution of this utility model is as follows: A coil tinning device includes a frame, on which a conveyor belt is connected by a plurality of equally spaced pulleys, and a loading area, a tinning area, and a unloading area are sequentially arranged on the frame. A baffle is provided between the tinning area and the unloading area. A tin bath is provided on one side of the frame between the tinning area and the unloading area, and a robot arm is provided on one side of the tin bath. The robot arm is equipped with a clamping mechanism, which includes a drive housing. Two opposing clamping plates that can move in opposite directions simultaneously are provided at the bottom of the drive housing. A drive mechanism for driving the two clamping plates is provided on the drive housing.
[0006] Preferably, a first motor is mounted on one side wall of the frame, and the shaft of the first motor is connected to its corresponding pulley.
[0007] Preferably, the bottom of the baffle is provided with a U-shaped opening, and the bottom of the baffle is fixedly connected to both sides of the upper surface of the frame.
[0008] Preferably, there is a gap between the inner wall of the top of the U-shaped opening and the upper surface of the conveyor belt.
[0009] Preferably, the driving mechanism includes a second motor installed in the middle part of the outer wall of the driving housing, a groove is provided in the middle part of the bottom of the driving housing along its width direction, a bidirectional lead screw is rotatably connected in the groove through a bearing, the shaft of the second motor is connected to the bidirectional lead screw, and threaded blocks are provided in the middle part of the top of the two clamping plates, which are threadedly connected to the bidirectional lead screw.
[0010] Preferably, the bottom of the drive housing is provided with trapezoidal grooves on both sides of the groove, and the upper surface of the clamping plate is provided with trapezoidal blocks on both sides corresponding to the trapezoidal grooves, and the trapezoidal blocks are slidably connected to the trapezoidal grooves.
[0011] The coil tin-dipping device of this utility model has the following advantages:
[0012] This invention features a high degree of automation, significantly reducing the labor intensity of workers. By securing the coils to the conveyor belt, each coil is in the same state, ensuring that when the coils arrive at the immersion area, they are neatly arranged. This facilitates the robotic arm driving the clamping mechanism to pick up multiple coils at once and immerse them in the molten solder bath, thereby greatly improving production efficiency.

[0025] To better understand the purpose, structure, and function of this utility model, the following description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, provides a more detailed account of a coil tinning device according to this utility model.
[0026] like Figure 1-5 As shown, this utility model discloses a coil tinning device, including a frame 2. A conveyor belt 1 is connected to the frame 2 via multiple equally spaced pulleys 11. The frame 2 is sequentially provided with a loading area 5, a tinning area 6, and a unloading area 7. A first motor 10 is installed on one side wall of the frame 2. The shaft of the first motor 10 is connected to its corresponding pulley 11. The coil to be tinned is manually placed on the conveyor belt 1. By starting the first motor 10, the conveyor belt 1 moves under the action of the multiple pulleys 11, causing the coil to move. The width of the conveyor belt 1 matches the distance between the terminals on both sides of the coil, so that the coil can be just caught on the conveyor belt 1 and move with the conveyor belt. This ensures that each coil is in the same state, so that when the coils arrive at the tinning area 6, they are in a neat arrangement. This makes it easy for the robot arm 8 to drive the clamping mechanism 9 to clamp multiple coils at once and put them into the tin bath 3 to tin the terminals of multiple coils at the same time, thereby greatly improving production efficiency.
[0027] A baffle 4 is installed between the soaking area 6 and the feeding area 7. The bottom of the baffle 4 has a U-shaped opening, and the bottom of the baffle 4 is fixedly connected to both sides of the upper surface of the frame 2. The baffle 4 blocks the coil when it reaches the baffle 4, while the conveyor belt 1 continues to move. This allows the coils in the soaking area 6 to contact each other and be arranged together, making it easy for the clamping mechanism 9 to clamp multiple coils at once. There is a gap between the inner wall of the top of the U-shaped opening and the upper surface of the conveyor belt 1, so that the conveyor belt 1 will not wear against the baffle 4.
[0028] A molten tin pool 3 is located on one side of the frame 2, between the immersion zone 6 and the unloading zone 7. A robotic arm 8 is located on one side of the molten tin pool 3. The robotic arm 8 is equipped with a clamping mechanism 9, which includes a drive housing 12. The bottom of the drive housing 12 has two opposing clamping plates 14 that can move in opposite directions simultaneously. The drive housing 12 is equipped with a drive mechanism for driving the two clamping plates 14. The drive mechanism includes a second motor 13 installed in the middle of the outer wall of the drive housing 12. A groove 18 is provided in the middle of the bottom of the drive housing 12 along its width direction. The groove 18 is rotated through a bearing. A bidirectional lead screw 19 is connected to the shaft of a second motor 13. Both clamping plates 14 have threaded blocks 15 at their top center that are threaded to the bidirectional lead screw 19. By starting the second motor 13, the bidirectional lead screw 19 rotates, causing the two clamping plates 14 to move in opposite directions simultaneously under the action of the threaded blocks 15. This clamping plates 14 hold the coil in the immersion area 6 and move it to the tin bath 3 for tinning using a robotic arm 8. After tinning, the robotic arm 8 places the tinned coil onto the conveyor belt 1 in the unloading area 7 for transport. Trapezoidal grooves 16 are provided on both sides of the bottom of the drive housing 12, located in the groove 18. Trapezoidal blocks 17, corresponding to the trapezoidal grooves 16, are provided on both sides of the upper surface of the clamping plates 14. The trapezoidal blocks 17 are slidably connected to the trapezoidal grooves 16. The trapezoidal blocks 17 and the trapezoidal grooves 16 limit the movement of the clamping plates 14, making their movement more stable and reliable.
