Description

Technical Field

[0001] The embodiments disclosed herein relate to the field of stamping machine technology, and more specifically, to an automatic stamping machine for terminal production. Background Technology

[0002] Automatic punching machines for terminal production are automated equipment used to produce terminal blocks. They can automate multiple processes in terminal production, such as automatic feeding, automatic punching, and automatic testing, reducing manual intervention and improving production efficiency and product quality. They are used to produce terminal blocks for various electronic and electrical products, such as mobile phones, computers, televisions, refrigerators, and air conditioners.

[0003] When terminals are produced by a stamping machine, after the terminals are formed, they will fly out when the die of the stamping machine is lifted. In actual use, terminals usually need to have a certain degree of flexibility and plasticity in order to adapt to different installation environments and usage requirements. The flying terminals may collide with other objects or fly directly out of the collection area, causing the near area of ​​the stamping machine to be full of flying terminals, resulting in surface scratches or damage, affecting the appearance and quality of the product, and making the work area more cluttered. Utility Model Content

[0004] To overcome the above-mentioned defects, the embodiments of this disclosure provide an automatic stamping machine for terminal production, which solves the technical problem in the prior art that the shape and size of the terminal will change due to the soft material after terminal production and the outward flying of the terminal, and the working area will be very messy.

[0005] According to one aspect, at least one embodiment of this disclosure provides an automatic stamping machine for terminal production, including a machine body, a worktable fixedly connected to the inner bottom wall of the machine body, and a mold slidably fitted on the machine body, further comprising:

[0006] A spring-loaded flexible plate is installed on the inner bottom wall of the machine body via a transfer mechanism. The spring-loaded flexible plate is used to collect the spring-loaded terminals after the mold is produced.

[0007] An elastic mechanism is provided on the outer wall of the workbench, and the elastic mechanism is used to spring back the contacted terminal into the transfer mechanism;

[0008] A support mechanism is provided at the bottom of the transfer mechanism to support the transfer mechanism.

[0009] Preferably, the support mechanism includes:

[0010] A support column is fixedly connected to the inner bottom wall of the machine body;

[0011] A support rod is fixedly connected to one side of the machine body.

[0012] Preferably, the elastic mechanism includes:

[0013] Two springs are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the worktable;

[0014] A spring-loaded sheet is fixedly connected to the other end of the spring.

[0015] Preferably, the transfer mechanism includes:

[0016] A transfer box, which is fixedly connected to the top of the support column and the support rod;

[0017] The outlet is located on the inner bottom wall of the transfer box, and the spring-loaded flexible plate is located on the inner side wall of the transfer box.

[0018] An inlet is located at the end of the transfer box away from the spring-loaded flexible plate;

[0019] A sliding assembly is disposed at the bottom of the transfer box.

[0020] Preferably, the sliding component includes:

[0021] The motor is mounted on the outer side walls on both sides of the transfer box;

[0022] A gear, which is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor;

[0023] A sliding plate, which is slidably fitted onto the bottom of the transfer box;

[0024] A rack is fixedly connected to the outer walls on both sides of the sliding plate.

[0025] Furthermore, the rack meshes with the gear.

[0026] Furthermore, there is a gap between the rack and the support rod, and there is also a gap between the gear and the support rod.

[0027] Furthermore, the inner bottom wall of the transfer box is provided with an arc-shaped surface.

[0028] Furthermore, the spring-loaded sheet is disposed at the inlet of the transfer box.

[0029] Furthermore, a collection box is provided below the transfer box.

[0030] The beneficial effects of the embodiments disclosed herein are as follows:

[0031] In this disclosure, when using a stamping machine to produce terminals, the raw materials for the terminals are first placed on the worktable from the previous production steps. Then, the machine is started, and the mold is used to press the terminals on the worktable. The produced terminals move into the transfer mechanism. When the terminals move into the transfer mechanism, if springback occurs, they will bounce onto the elastic mechanism and eventually bounce back into the transfer mechanism. At this time, the sliding mechanism can be activated to open the transfer mechanism by driving the sliding plate. The terminals in the transfer mechanism will then slide into the collection box through the open sliding plate. Compared with the prior art, since the material of the produced terminals is relatively soft, flying out will cause changes in the shape and size of the terminals, and the working area will be very messy. The improved device can collect the terminals after they fly out into the transfer mechanism. Then, the terminals in the transfer mechanism slide into the collection box through the sliding mechanism. The terminals touching the springback plate can reduce the risk of deformation. Moreover, the transfer mechanism can confine the produced terminals within the transfer mechanism, which can reduce the mess in the working area. Attached Figure Description

[0039] The present disclosure will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present disclosure and are not intended to limit the scope of the disclosure.

[0040] To keep the drawings concise, each drawing only schematically shows the parts relevant to the disclosure; these do not represent the actual structure of the product.

They are used only for the convenience of description and simplification of operation, and are not intended to indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this disclosure.

[0044] Furthermore, in the description of this application, the terms "first," "second," etc., are used only to distinguish descriptions and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0045] like Figures 1-5 As shown, an automatic stamping machine for terminal production according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is illustrated. It includes a machine body 1, a worktable 2 fixedly connected to the inner bottom wall of the machine body 1, and a mold 3 slidably fitted on the machine body 1. It also includes a spring plate 4, an elastic mechanism, and a support mechanism. The spring plate 4 is disposed on the inner bottom wall of the machine body 1 through a transfer mechanism. The spring plate 4 is used to spring back and collect the terminals produced by the mold 3. The elastic mechanism is disposed on the outer side wall of the worktable 2. The elastic mechanism is used to spring back the contacted terminals into the transfer mechanism. The support mechanism is disposed at the bottom of the transfer mechanism. The support mechanism is used to support the transfer mechanism.

[0046] When using an automatic stamping machine to produce terminals, the raw materials for the terminals are fed onto the worktable 2 through the previous production steps. After the raw materials arrive at the worktable 2, the machine body 1 is started, and the machine body 1 drives the mold 3 to press the raw materials on the worktable 2. After the pressing is completed, the terminals will fly into the transfer mechanism supported by the support mechanism. The support mechanism includes a support column 5 and a support rod 6. The support column 5 is fixedly connected to the inner bottom wall of the machine body 1, and the support rod 6 is fixedly connected to one side of the machine body 1. The transfer mechanism includes a transfer box 9, an outlet 10, an inlet 11, and a sliding assembly. The transfer box 9 is fixedly connected to the top of the support column 5 and the support rod 6. The outlet 10 is located on the inner bottom wall of the transfer box 9, and the spring plate 4 is located on the inner side wall of the transfer box 9. The inlet 11 is located at the end of the transfer box 9 away from the spring plate 4. The sliding assembly is located at the bottom of the transfer box 9. The inner bottom wall of the transfer box 9 is provided with an arc-shaped surface 17, which facilitates the sliding of the produced terminals through the arc-shaped surface 17 at the outlet 10, avoiding accumulation in the transfer box 9 and causing blockage, which would affect the subsequent collection of the terminals. A collection box 18 is provided below the transfer box 9, which facilitates the terminals to slide from the outlet 10 into the collection box 18. The machine body 1 drives the mold 3 to be lifted upward, and then the terminals will fly into the transfer box 9. After the terminals collide with the spring plate 4 in the transfer box 9, they will bounce to the other end of the transfer box 9 and collide with the elastic mechanism.

[0047] The elastic mechanism includes a spring 7 and a rebound sheet 8. Two springs 7 are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the worktable 2. The rebound sheet 8 is fixedly connected to the other end of the spring 7. The rebound sheet 8 is set at the inlet 11 of the transfer box 9, blocking half of the inlet 11, which can reduce the frequency of the terminal flying out. When the terminal collides with the elastic mechanism, it will be bounced back into the transfer box 9 for collection and discharged out through the outlet 10 at the bottom of the transfer box 9.

[0048] At this time, the sliding mechanism is activated. The sliding assembly includes a motor 12, a gear 13, a sliding plate 14, and a rack 15. The motor 12 is installed on the outer side walls of both sides of the transfer box 9. The gear 13 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 12. The sliding plate 14 is slidably engaged at the bottom of the transfer box 9. The rack 15 is fixedly connected to the outer side walls of both sides of the sliding plate 14. The rack 15 meshes with the gear 13. There is a gap 16 between the rack 15 and the support rod 6, and there is also a gap 16 between the gear 13 and the support rod 6 to avoid collisions when the gear 13 and the rack 15 rotate. The motor 12 is activated, which drives the gear 13 to rotate. Then, the rack 15, which meshes with the gear 13, drives the sliding plate 14 to move outward, making the outlet 10 open. At this time, the terminals inside the transfer box 9 will slide into the collection box 18 to the west of the transfer box 9 for collection. After all collection is completed, the motor 12 is activated to close the outlet 10 with the sliding plate 14.

[0049] Working principle: When using an automatic stamping machine to produce terminals, the raw material for the terminals is fed onto the worktable 2 through the previous production steps. After the raw material arrives on the worktable 2, the machine body 1 is started, which drives the mold 3 to press the raw material on the worktable 2. After pressing, the terminal will bounce into the transfer box 9. When the bounce force is large, the terminal will collide with the spring plate 4. Due to the shock absorption and rebound of the spring plate 4, it can fall into the transfer box 9, or bounce again and touch the spring sheet 8. Since the other end of the spring sheet 8 is a spring 7, the terminal will bounce back due to the elastic deformation of the spring 7. The terminals are then collected in the transfer box 9. The motor 12 is started, which drives the gear 13 to rotate. The rack 15, which meshes with the gear 13, will follow the rotation of the gear 13 and drive the sliding plate 14 to slide away from the end of the machine body 1. Then the outlet 10 will be open. At this time, the terminals in the transfer box 9 will slide through the arc surface 17 on the bottom wall of the transfer box 9 to the outlet 10, and slide through the outlet 10 into the collection box 18 below the transfer box 9. After all the terminals are collected, the motor 12 is started, which drives the gear 13 to rotate the sliding plate 14 back to the position where the outlet 10 is closed.

[0050] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this disclosure and are not intended to limit it. Although this disclosure has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of this disclosure without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of this disclosure, and all such modifications and substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this disclosure.
