Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bearing assembly tooling technology, and in particular to a tooling for an outer ring assembly line for bearing assembly. Background Technology

[0002] In bearing manufacturing, the assembly process is the core step that determines the bearing's operational accuracy and service life, requiring the outer ring, inner ring, and rolling elements to be precisely assembled to micron-level tolerances. Traditional processes have the following significant drawbacks:

[0003] (i) High dependence on manual labor: Existing production lines generally rely on manual handling of outer ring workpieces, with operators visually adjusting the clearance between the outer ring and the rolling elements. Moreover, due to fatigue factors, the clearance qualification rate fluctuates greatly, making it difficult to meet the process requirements of precision bearings.

[0004] (ii) Poor equipment coordination: Most existing technologies use separate semi-automatic equipment, but there is a lack of material flow connection between the equipment. Manual transfer between processes is required, and the ineffective waiting time accounts for a long time of the total process time. In addition, the repeated manual loading and unloading leads to an increase in the defect rate due to bumps and damage. Utility Model Content

[0028] Please see Figures 1 to 3 This embodiment describes a tooling for an outer ring assembly line for bearing assembly. The tooling includes a supply component 1, which supplies the outer rings. Specifically, the supply component 1 includes a carrier 11, a first rotating shaft 12, and a first motor 13. One end of the first rotating shaft 12 is connected to the first motor 13, and the other end of the first rotating shaft 12 is connected to the carrier 11. The first motor 13 drives the first rotating shaft 12 to move, thereby rotating the carrier 11. The carrier 11 is used to hold loose outer rings.

[0029] Furthermore, the supply assembly 1 also includes a first carrier 14 and a second carrier 15 connected to each other, with the carrier 11 rotatably disposed on the first carrier 14. The first carrier 14 is also provided with a first track 16 communicating with the carrier 11, and the surface of the second carrier 15 is also provided with a second track 17 communicating with the first track 16. The outer ring is squeezed into the first track 16 under the rotation of the carrier 11 and sequentially conveyed into the second track 17.

[0030] The tooling also includes a conveying assembly 2, which works in conjunction with the supply assembly 1 to convey the outer ring. Specifically, the conveying assembly 2 includes a first conveying section 21 and a second conveying section 22. The first conveying section 21 is located close to the second carrier 15 and includes a first support 211 and a first cylinder 212 connected to each other. The first cylinder 212 acts on the second track 17 to deliver the outer ring, which is being conveyed into the second track 17, to the end of the second track 17 so that the second conveying section 22 can clamp and convey it.

[0031] Furthermore, the second conveying unit 22 includes a second support 221 and a third support 222, with the third support 222 disposed between the second supports 221. In this embodiment, two second supports 221 are provided, and a third track 2221 is also provided on the surface of the third support 222. The conveying assembly 2 also includes two clamping assemblies 23, each clamping assembly 23 including a connector 231. One end of the connector 231 is movably disposed on the third track 2221, meaning that the two clamping assemblies 23 can move relative to the third support 222.

[0032] Furthermore, the gripping assembly 23 also includes a fixed block 232, a movable block 233, and a second cylinder 234. One end of the connector 231 is connected to the fixed block 232, and the second cylinder 234 passes through the fixed block 232 and acts on the movable block 233 at one end. The movable block 233 is driven to move up and down by the second cylinder 234. The gripping assembly 23 also includes grippers 235 symmetrically arranged on the movable block 233 and movable relative to the movable block 233. In this embodiment, two grippers 235 are set at both ends of the movable block 233. Similarly, with the design of the connector 231 and the third track 2221, the grippers 235 adopt a track-type design and can move closer or further away from each other synchronously, thereby realizing the gripping or releasing of the outer ring.

[0033] The tooling also includes a detection component 3, which includes a first transfer section 31 and a calibration section 32. The tooling also includes a second transfer section 4. The conveying component 2, i.e. the clamping component 23, is configured to act on both the first transfer section 31 and the second transfer section 4 simultaneously, thereby transferring the outer ring that has passed the detection in the first transfer section 31 to the second transfer section 4 for further transfer and assembly.

[0034] Specifically, the first transfer unit 31 includes a first platform 311, a second rotating shaft 312, and a second motor 313. One end of the second rotating shaft 312 is connected to the first platform 311, and the other end of the second rotating shaft 312 is connected to the second motor 313. The second rotating shaft 312 is driven to rotate by the second motor 313, causing the first platform 311 to rotate. A first protrusion 314 is provided on the surface of the first platform 311. Preferably, in this embodiment, two first protrusions 314 are provided. One first protrusion 314 is used to be transferred by the gripping component 23, and the other first protrusion 314 is used to be detected by the calibration unit 32. Thus, they work alternately under the rotation of the first platform 311, thereby improving efficiency. The second transfer unit 4 includes a second platform 41, a third rotating shaft 42, and a third motor 43. One end of the third rotating shaft 42 is connected to the second platform 41, and the other end is connected to the third motor 43. A second protrusion 44 is provided on the surface of the second platform 41. The third rotating shaft 42 is driven to rotate by the third motor 43, thereby causing the second platform 41 to rotate. The second protrusion 44 is used to place and perform calibration on the outer ring. The fixture also includes a storage component 5, which includes a fifth bracket 51 and a camera 52. The camera 52 is connected to the fifth bracket 51, and the camera 52 acts on the outer ring on the second protrusion 44 to capture and store images.

[0035] Furthermore, the calibration unit 32 includes a fourth bracket 321, a third cylinder 322, and a quality inspection component 323. The third cylinder 322 passes through the fourth bracket 321 and is connected at one end to the quality inspection component 323. The third cylinder 322 pushes the quality inspection component 323 to perform quality inspection on the outer ring on the first protrusion 314 to ensure the pass rate of the assembled outer ring.

[0036] Furthermore, the supply component 1, the conveying component 2, the detection component 3, the second transfer unit 4, and the storage component 5 are all arranged on the workbench 6 for streamlined construction operations.

[0037] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0038] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementations of this utility model, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model patent should be determined by the appended claims.
