Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of metal conductive sheet production equipment, and in particular to a metal conductive sheet production equipment for air conditioner connection wires. Background Technology

[0002] As a core component of air conditioner connecting cables, the production efficiency of conductive metal sheets directly impacts overall manufacturing costs. Currently, the industry widely employs automated equipment for gripping and transferring conductive metal sheets, but existing technologies still suffer from significant efficiency bottlenecks. Traditional production equipment typically features only a single suction cup mechanism, capable of transferring only one conductive metal sheet per operation, with the suction cup position fixed and unadjustable. In high-speed assembly line operations, the single gripping action is difficult to match with the conveyor belt's rhythm, easily leading to gripping failures or prolonged waiting times. Especially when continuously processing conductive sheets of different specifications, the fixed suction cup layout cannot quickly adapt to product size changes, necessitating machine shutdowns to adjust equipment parameters, severely restricting production line continuity. Furthermore, traditional suction cup supports are mostly integrally welded structures, unable to flexibly adjust the suction cup spacing or expand the adsorption station according to actual production needs, limiting the number of gripping operations per unit time and locking in capacity expansion potential. With the air conditioning industry's ever-increasing demands for production efficiency, the gripping efficiency of existing conductive metal sheet production equipment has become a key bottleneck restricting capacity, urgently requiring the development of new, high-efficiency gripping mechanisms to overcome current technological limitations.

[0003] It is evident that existing technologies still need improvement and enhancement. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a metal conductive sheet production equipment for air conditioner connection wires, so as to solve one or more problems existing in the prior art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a metal conductive sheet production equipment for air conditioner connecting wires, comprising: a conveyor belt mounted on a main frame for conveying metal conductive sheets; a support bracket slidably mounted on the main frame, wherein two mounting slots are opened in parallel on the support bracket; a main suction cup, disposed in one of the mounting slots and located above the conveyor belt; and an adjustable-length mounting plate, fixed to the other mounting slot by bolts, wherein auxiliary suction cups are provided on both sides of the mounting plate, and the two auxiliary suction cups are symmetrically arranged about the main suction cup.

[0006] In one embodiment of this utility model, the mounting plate is composed of two L-shaped plates spliced ​​together. The long sides of the L-shaped plates are all fixed to the mounting groove by bolts, and the auxiliary suction cups are installed on the short sides.

The transmission block is fixedly connected to the transmission assembly.

[0008] In one embodiment of the present invention, the guide rail extends along the traveling direction of the conveyor belt.

[0009] In one embodiment of the present invention, the guide rails are provided on both opposite sides of the support bracket.

[0019] This utility model provides a production equipment for metal conductive sheets for air conditioner connection wires. To make the purpose, technical solution, and effects of this utility model clearer and more explicit, the following describes this utility model in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "up, down, left, right," etc., indicating directions or positional relationships are based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model; in addition, the terms "installation," "connection," etc., should be interpreted broadly, and those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

[0020] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 This utility model provides a metal conductive sheet production equipment for air conditioner connection wires, including: a conveyor belt 2 disposed on a main frame 1 for conveying metal conductive sheets; a support bracket 3 slidably disposed on the main frame 1, the support bracket 3 having two parallel mounting slots 4; a main suction cup 5 disposed in one of the mounting slots 4 and located above the conveyor belt 2; and an adjustable length mounting plate 6 fixed to the other mounting slot 4 by bolts, the mounting plate 6 having auxiliary suction cups 7 on both sides, the two auxiliary suction cups 7 being symmetrically arranged about the main suction cup 5.

[0021] The support bracket 3 includes: a connecting platform 15, slidably mounted on the main frame 1; an installation platform 16, with the installation slot 4; and a lifting cylinder 17, connecting the connecting platform 15 and the installation platform 16, used to adjust the height of the installation platform 16. The double-layer platform configuration of the lifting cylinder 17 connecting the connecting platform 15 and the installation platform 16 allows for rapid adjustment of the height of the installation slot 4, accommodating conductive sheets of different thicknesses or adjusting the optimal adsorption distance between the suction cup and the conveyor belt 2. Simultaneously, the independent height adjustment function avoids overall equipment reconstruction, simplifies parameter adjustment procedures, and improves the equipment's adaptability to diverse products. Furthermore, the separate design of the connecting platform 15 and the installation platform 16 isolates the mutual interference between horizontal movement and lifting motion.

[0022] The mounting plate 6 is composed of two L-shaped plates joined together. The long sides of the L-shaped plates are fixed to the mounting slot 4 with bolts, and the auxiliary suction cups 7 are installed on the short sides. This modular L-shaped plate structure allows for quick adjustment of the spacing between the auxiliary suction cups 7 using bolts, accommodating the processing needs of conductive sheets of different widths. The modular design simplifies installation and maintenance processes, reduces downtime due to specification changes, and improves the equipment's versatility and ease of operation. Specifically, the mounting slot 4 is a long, narrow slot, and the L-shaped plates also have long, narrow slots. By using bolts to engage with these slots, the two L-shaped plates are fixed to the mounting slot 4, allowing adjustment of the position of the auxiliary suction cups 7. Furthermore, the length direction of the long, narrow slots is perpendicular to the travel direction of the conveyor belt 2, allowing the L-shaped plates to slide laterally along the slots to accommodate the widths of conductive sheets of different specifications. Adjustment only requires loosening the bolts to slide the L-shaped plates to the target position and then re-tightening them, achieving millimeter-level fine-tuning of the spacing between the auxiliary suction cups 7.

[0023] The main frame 1 is fixedly equipped with a guide rail 8, and the top of the support bracket 3 is equipped with a transmission block 9 and a guide block 10 that is slidably connected to the guide rail 8. The transmission block 9 is fixedly connected to the transmission assembly. The cooperation between the guide rail 8 and the guide block 10 ensures the linear accuracy and stability of the movement of the support bracket 3, avoiding the shaking or offset problems that are prone to occur in traditional sliding structures. The linkage between the transmission block 9 and the transmission assembly realizes the precise positioning of the support bracket 3, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the suction cup alignment and reducing the gripping failure rate.

[0024] The guide rails 8 extend along the travel direction of the conveyor belt 2, and are provided on both opposite sides of the support bracket 3. The guide rails 8 extend along the travel direction of the conveyor belt 2, ensuring that the movement path of the support bracket 3 is completely consistent with the running direction of the conveyor belt 2. This optimizes the coordination between the material handling action and the transmission rhythm, avoids efficiency losses due to deviations in the movement direction, and further improves the continuity of the assembly line operation. Simultaneously, the dual-rail guidance enhances stability during high-speed reciprocating motion, extending the equipment's lifespan. The dual-side guide rails 8 enhance the anti-tipping capability of the support bracket 3, especially during high-speed or high-load operations, effectively preventing bracket swaying and ensuring that the suction cup remains in a stable gripping posture, thereby improving material handling accuracy and equipment operational reliability.

[0025] The transmission assembly includes a drive wheel 11 and a driven wheel 12 fixed to the main frame 1. A transmission belt 13 is wound between the drive wheel 11 and the driven wheel 12, and the transmission block 9 is fixed to the transmission belt 13. The belt transmission assembly achieves uniform and stable movement of the support bracket 3 through the drive wheel 11, the driven wheel 12, and the transmission belt 13, simplifying the power transmission structure, reducing the mechanical failure rate, and the flexibility of the transmission belt 13 can buffer impacts, extend the service life of the equipment, and ensure long-term stable operation. To improve the accuracy of transmission, the metal conductive sheet production equipment for air conditioner connecting wires is also equipped with a clamping block 14. The clamping block 14 is connected to the transmission block 9 by screws and is clamped on opposite sides of the transmission belt 13. The clamping block 14 fixes the transmission block 9 with screws and fits tightly against both sides of the transmission belt 13, effectively preventing the transmission belt 13 from slipping or shifting, ensuring the synchronous movement accuracy of the transmission block 9 and the support bracket 3, avoiding material misalignment caused by transmission failure, and further improving the reliability of the production process.

[0026] The specific working process of the metal conductive sheet production equipment for air conditioner connection wires is as follows: The conveyor belt 2 on the main frame 1 continuously transports the metal conductive sheets to the material handling station. The sliding support bracket 3 moves horizontally along the guide rail 8. Its top transmission block 9 is driven by a transmission assembly consisting of a drive wheel 11, a driven wheel 12, and a transmission belt 13, ensuring that the movement trajectory is precisely synchronized with the direction of travel of the conveyor belt 2. On the mounting platform 16 of the support bracket 3, the main suction cup 5 is fixed in one mounting slot 4 facing the conveyor belt 2. The L-shaped mounting plate 6, which is bolted together in another mounting slot 4, can be adjusted in length according to the product specifications. The auxiliary suction cups 7, which are symmetrically arranged on both sides, form a triangular gripping layout with the main suction cup 5. The lifting cylinder 17 adjusts the height of the mounting platform 16 in real time, so that the suction cup assembly is always in the optimal adsorption position. During operation, the transmission assembly drives the suction cup system to move back and forth. The main suction cup 5 and the auxiliary suction cups 7 simultaneously complete the adsorption and transfer of one or more conductive sheets. The entire process is adapted to different sizes of workpieces by adjusting the spacing of the mounting plates 6 and the cylinder stroke, which not only ensures the stability of material handling but also improves the output per unit time.

[0027] In summary, the metal conductive sheet production equipment for air conditioner connecting wires of this invention, through the multi-station collaborative material handling mechanism formed by the main suction cup 5 and symmetrically arranged auxiliary suction cups 7, combined with the flexible positioning function of the sliding support bracket 3, significantly improves the metal conductive sheet gripping efficiency. The adjustable length mounting plate 6 design allows the spacing of the auxiliary suction cups 7 to quickly adapt to different product specifications. Combined with the continuous transmission characteristics of the conveyor belt 2, it achieves efficient and stable assembly line material handling operations, effectively shortening the single gripping cycle and reducing downtime for adjustment due to specification changes, thereby ensuring the continuity of the production line and overall capacity output. Therefore, this invention effectively overcomes the various shortcomings of the prior art and has high industrial application value.

[0028] It is understood that those skilled in the art can make equivalent substitutions or changes based on the technical solution and inventive concept of this utility model, and all such substitutions or changes should fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
