[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of eyeglass temple manufacturing technology, specifically relating to a jig insertion device for eyeglass temples. Background Technology

[0002] In the process of eyeglasses production, since the temples, frames, nose pads and other components are all independent parts, they often need to be assembled together. As labor costs increase, more and more factories are starting to automate the assembly process to reduce labor costs.

[0003] Among them, the insertion of the temples into the corresponding temple fixtures to facilitate subsequent assembly is one of the important steps in automated production assembly. Therefore, it is necessary to design a temple fixture insertion device. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

[0024] The technical solutions in this embodiment will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments, not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments in this solution without creative effort are within the protection scope of this solution.

[0025] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this embodiment designs a jig loading device for eyeglass temple 1, used to load eyeglass temple 1 into temple jig 3. The jig loading device includes temple clamp 4, clamp displacement mechanism 2, mounting frame 6, and temple pushing mechanism 5. The clamp displacement mechanism 2 and temple pushing mechanism 5 are both fixed on the same mounting frame 6.

[0026] The temple clamp 4 includes components such as a finger-clamping cylinder 42, a finger-aligning cylinder 45, a clamp bracket 41, and an alignment telescopic cylinder 43.

[0027] The clamping finger cylinder 42 is equipped with clamping fingers. When the two clamping fingers on the clamping finger cylinder 42 are closed, they can clamp the upper part of the temple 1. There are two clamping finger cylinders 42 arranged side by side, and the two clamping finger cylinders 42 are used to clamp different temples 1. The straightening finger cylinder 45 is located below the clamping finger cylinders 42. The number of straightening finger cylinders 45 corresponds one-to-one with the number of clamping finger cylinders 42. When the two straightening fingers on the straightening finger cylinder 45 are closed, they can clamp the middle or lower part of the temple 1, thereby preventing the temple 1 from shaking during movement. Each straightening finger cylinder 45 is connected to a straightening telescopic cylinder 43. The straightening finger cylinder 45 is connected to the straightening telescopic cylinder 43 through a telescopic frame 44. The straightening telescopic cylinder 43 can control the movement of the straightening finger cylinder 45 in the Y direction. Both the straightening telescopic cylinder 43 and the clamping finger cylinders 42 are connected to the clamp displacement mechanism 2 through the clamp bracket 41. The telescopic cylinder 43 for straightening can be a pneumatic cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder, or an electric cylinder.

[0028] The clamp displacement mechanism 2 is connected to the temple clamp 4 and controls the movement of the temple clamp 4 in the X, Y, and Z directions, which are perpendicular to each other. Specifically, the clamp displacement mechanism 2 includes an X-direction linear module 22, a Y-direction linear module 21, and a Z-direction linear module; the Y-direction linear module 21 is connected to the sliding end of the X-direction linear module 22, the Z-direction linear module is connected to the Y-direction linear module 21, and the temple clamp 4 is connected to the Z-direction linear module; the X-direction linear module 22 controls the movement of the temple clamp 4 in the X direction, the Y-direction linear module 21 controls the movement of the temple clamp 4 in the Y direction, and the Z-direction linear module controls the movement of the temple clamp 4 in the Z direction.

[0029] The temple pushing mechanism 5 includes components such as a pushing motor 51, a pushing table 52, a pushing screw 53, a temple push rod 54, a Z-direction guide seat 56, a Y-direction guide seat 55, and a Y-direction telescopic cylinder 57. The Y-direction telescopic cylinder 57 can be a pneumatic cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder, or an electric cylinder.

[0030] The Z-direction guide seat 56 is provided with a guide vertical hole, and the eyeglass temple 1 can be inserted into the guide vertical hole by the temple clamp 4. When the temple fixture 3 is positioned directly below the guide vertical hole, the eyeglass temple 1 can move along the guide vertical hole into the temple fixture 3. When the temple push rod 54 moves downward, a pushing force can be applied to the eyeglass temple 1 in the guide vertical hole, thereby pushing the eyeglass temple 1 into the temple fixture 3 below the guide vertical hole.

[0031] The pusher 52 is slidably connected to a vertical track and can slide along the Z-direction (i.e., the vertical direction). The pusher 52 is threadedly engaged with the pusher screw 53. When the pusher screw 53 rotates, it can control the pusher 52 to move up or down. The pusher screw 53 is driven by the pusher motor 51. When the pusher motor 51 is energized, it can control the pusher screw 53 to rotate in the forward or reverse direction, thereby controlling the pusher 52 to move up and down along the Z-direction. The temple pusher 54 can move up and down with the pusher 52. The temple pusher 54 and the guide vertical hole are both two, which facilitates the installation of two temples 1 into the same temple fixture 3, thus meeting the assembly requirement of one pair of glasses with two temples 1.

[0032] When the upper end of the temple push rod 54 is rotatably connected to the push table 52, the lower end of the temple push rod 54 can be equipped with a Y-direction guide seat 55. The lower end of the temple push rod 54 passes through the Y-direction guide seat 55 and slides with it. The Y-direction guide seat 55 can move in the Y direction, thereby aligning or offsetting the temple push rod 54 with the guide vertical hole. When the temple push rod 54 is aligned with the guide vertical hole, the lower end of the temple push rod 54 can be inserted into the guide vertical hole and push the temple 1 into the temple fixture 3. When the temple push rod 54 is offset from the guide vertical hole, it can open up the space above the guide vertical hole, making it easier for the temple clamp 4 to put the temple 1 into the guide vertical hole.

[0033] When using the fixture for inserting the temple of this eyeglass:

[0034] First, the temple 1 is gripped by the temple clamp 4. Then, the clamp displacement mechanism 2 moves the temple 1 gripped by the temple clamp 4 and places it into the guide vertical hole. After the lower end of the temple push rod 54 is aligned with the guide vertical hole, the temple push rod 54 is controlled to descend and extend into the guide vertical hole, thereby pushing the temple 1 into the temple fixture 3 below the guide vertical hole. The above actions can be controlled by a PLC controller, so that the various actions cooperate with each other, effectively improving the degree of automation, reducing labor costs and increasing efficiency.

[0035] The above embodiments are merely illustrative examples for clear explanation and are not intended to limit the implementation; it is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations. However, obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom remain within the scope of this technology.
