[0022] Reference Figures 1 to 6 An O-ring automatic assembly and feeding module for use on a turntable automatic assembly line includes an equipment frame, a turntable mounted on the equipment frame, a material picking and assembly module 1 mounted on the outside of the turntable, an O-ring opening module 2 mounted at the bottom of the material picking and assembly module, and a material feeding module 3 mounted at the front end of the O-ring opening module.

[0023] The feeding module includes a vibrating feeding plate 31, a feeding slide rail 32 connected to the vibrating feeding plate, a vibrating module 33 placed at the bottom of the feeding slide rail and driving the feeding slide rail to transmit O-rings, and a storage unit 34 set at the end of the feeding slide rail for storing O-rings.

[0024] The storage unit includes a fixed bracket 341, a storage platform 342 disposed at the top of the fixed bracket, and a storage trough 343 provided on the storage platform. In order to cooperate with the ejection unit, a clearance groove is provided on the storage trough.

[0025] In order to effectively prevent O-rings from stacking one by one when entering the storage platform, an upper pressure plate 344 is provided at the junction of the storage platform and the feeding slide rail. The upper pressure plate limits the height of the O-rings, thereby ensuring that only one set of O-rings can enter at a time; it also serves to level the surface.

[0026] In order to effectively cooperate with the material picking and assembly module, ensure the accuracy of picking up O-rings, and improve efficiency, an ejection unit 35 is also provided at the bottom of the material storage unit.

[0027] The ejection unit includes an ejection cylinder 351 mounted on the fixed bracket and an ejection shaft 352 driven by the ejection cylinder. In order to effectively fit the O-ring onto the ejection shaft, a boss 353 is provided at the end of the ejection shaft. The diameter of the boss is smaller than the diameter of the ejection shaft and the diameter of the O-ring, which facilitates the fitting of the O-ring. When ejecting, the ejection cylinder ejects, driving the ejection shaft to extend and pass through the clearance groove. The boss of the ejection shaft is placed inside the inner diameter of the O-ring, and the outer diameter of the ejection shaft ejects the O-ring, thereby fitting the O-ring outside the boss and taking the O-ring out of the storage platform for easy use in conjunction with the material handling and assembly module.

[0028] The material handling assembly module 1 includes a fixed column 11, a material handling mounting plate 12 disposed on the fixed column, a horizontally driven module 13 disposed on the material handling mounting plate, a main board 14 driven by the horizontally driven module, an assembly unit 15 mounted on one side of the main board, and a material handling unit 16 mounted on the other side of the main board.

[0029] The material handling unit 16 includes a material handling seat 161 mounted on the motherboard, a material handling cylinder 162 mounted on the material handling seat, a clamping seat 163 driven by the material handling cylinder, a material handling clamping cylinder 164 mounted on the clamping seat, and a gripper 165 driven by the material handling clamping cylinder. The gripper is positioned above the ejection unit. Specifically, the assembly unit and the material handling unit are moved by the horizontal module drive to move the material handling unit directly above the ejection unit for easy material handling. The gripper is moved up and down by the material handling cylinder to adjust the position of the gripper, ensuring that the gripper can clamp the O-ring. The gripper is then driven by the material handling clamping cylinder to clamp the O-ring, thus completing the clamping of the O-ring. After clamping, the horizontal module drive moves the material handling unit to the O-ring opening module. The material handling cylinder then moves the material handling unit to the corresponding position, and the material handling clamping cylinder releases the material handling unit, placing the O-ring at the corresponding position on the O-ring opening module.

[0030] The assembly unit 15 includes an axial drive module 151 mounted on the motherboard and driven to move up and down, a sliding seat 152 driven by the axial drive module, an assembly seat 153 mounted on the sliding seat, a sleeve shaft 154 disposed at the bottom of the assembly seat, and a stripping sleeve 156 driven by a stripping cylinder 155 to be sleeved on the sleeve shaft and able to slide along the sleeve shaft; after the O-ring is sleeved on the sleeve shaft, the stripping cylinder drives the stripping sleeve to push the O-ring out and move it outside the product, thereby realizing automatic assembly of the O-ring; the sleeve shaft 154 is provided with a clearance groove, which is disposed opposite to the support column to avoid the support column, and effectively sleeves the O-ring on the sleeve shaft during resetting.

[0031] The O-ring opening module 2 includes a support frame 21, a five-claw cylinder 22 mounted on the support frame, support columns 23 mounted on the five-claw cylinder and vertically driven by the five-claw cylinder, and a limiting plate 24 mounted on the five-claw cylinder. In order to effectively limit the support columns, a sliding groove is also provided on the limiting plate. The support columns are driven to move by the five-claw cylinder, and the support columns are placed in the sliding groove. When they are driven to move, they move along the sliding groove, thereby limiting the position of movement and ensuring accuracy.

[0032] In this embodiment, the vibrating feeding tray 31 feeds the O-rings onto the feeding slide rail 32. With the auxiliary vibration of the vibration module 33, the O-rings are driven along the feeding slide rail 32 and moved to the storage unit. To effectively prevent the O-rings from stacking one by one when entering the storage platform, an upper pressure plate 344 is provided at the junction of the storage platform and the feeding slide rail. The upper pressure plate limits the height of the O-rings, ensuring that only one group of O-rings can enter at a time; it also serves to level the O-rings as they move to the storage platform. After step 342, the ejector cylinder ejects, causing the ejector shaft to extend and pass through the clearance groove. The boss of the ejector shaft is positioned within the inner diameter of the O-ring, while the outer diameter of the ejector shaft pushes out the O-ring, thus fitting the O-ring around the boss and carrying it out of the storage platform for easy use with the material handling assembly module. The drive assembly module 1, via the transverse module 13, drives the assembly unit and the drive unit to move laterally, moving the material handling unit to the storage platform or the O-ring opening module; or driving the assembly unit to the O-ring opening module and the turntable, with the material handling unit picking up the material first. The material-picking cylinder drives the downward movement, placing the gripper on the outer ring of the boss 353. The material-picking clamping cylinder then drives the gripper to pick up the O-ring on the boss. The material-picking cylinder resets and moves above the O-ring opening module. It then moves downward again, placing the O-ring over the support column. The material-picking clamping cylinder resets, the gripper releases, and the material-picking continues. The O-ring opening module, driven by a five-jaw cylinder, moves the support column outward along the slide groove, contacting the inner ring of the O-ring and continuing to move, thus opening the O-ring. After opening, the assembly unit, driven axially... The moving module drives the sleeve shaft to be placed inside the O-ring. The five-jaw cylinder resets, the support column resets, and the O-ring loses its support. Due to elastic contraction, it wraps around the outer wall of the sleeve shaft. The axial drive module moves upward and moves to the corresponding assembly position on the turntable. Then, the axial drive module moves downward and moves the assembly shaft. After the shaft is moved, the sleeve shaft is inserted into the shaft to be installed. The ejector cylinder drives the ejector sleeve to move downward. The bottom of the ejector sleeve contacts the O-ring and pushes against the O-ring as it moves downward along the sleeve shaft until it is moved to the shaft to be installed, completing the installation. Then, it resets. This process of picking up and assembling can be repeated.

[0033] The advantages of this invention are that it achieves rapid assembly by setting up an automatic assembly device next to the turntable. By setting up an O-ring to expand the O-ring, and then combining it with an assembly and material handling unit, the O-ring can be assembled quickly, thereby improving efficiency, greatly saving cycle time.

[0034] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
