However, the current processing method is generally to manually place the terminal block on the clamp and then use a push rod to bend the thin plate. This method has the drawbacks of low processing efficiency and low degree of automation. Utility Model Content

[0003] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, this utility model provides a device for bending and forming terminal blocks with high processing efficiency and high degree of automation.

[0004] The technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: a device for bending and forming terminal blocks, including a frame, on which a vibratory plate, a feeding assembly for docking with the vibratory plate, a positioning assembly, and a rotating assembly for bending the terminal blocks on the positioning assembly are provided.

[0040] The embodiments of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings:

[0041] As shown in the figure, a terminal bending forming device includes a frame 1. The frame 1 is equipped with a vibratory feeder 3, a feeding assembly 2 for docking with the vibratory feeder 3, a positioning assembly 4, and a rotating assembly 5 for bending the terminal on the positioning assembly 4. The feeding assembly 2 includes a feeding channel 21 mounted on the frame 1 and docking with the vibratory feeder 3, and a clamping component slidably mounted on the frame 1. The clamping component has a first action of clamping the terminal at the end of the feeding channel 21 and a second state of transferring the terminal to the positioning assembly 4. In this technical solution, the semi-finished terminal is gathered in the vibratory feeder. The vibration of the vibratory feeder causes the terminal on the feeding channel to move forward continuously. Then, the clamping component continuously transfers the terminal on the feeding channel to the positioning assembly, and the rotating assembly bends the terminal on the positioning assembly. The whole processing has the advantages of high efficiency, high degree of automation, and good working stability.

[0042] The feeding channel 21 is provided with a material blocking component at its end. The material blocking component is:

[0043] Baffle 22 is rotatably mounted at the end of the feeding channel 21;

[0044] The first bracket 23 is installed on the side wall of the feeding channel 21;

[0045] The first elastic element 24 has its two ends connected to the baffle 22 and the first bracket 23, respectively.

[0046] The first bracket 23 is provided with a limiting bolt 231 for limiting the rotation angle of the baffle 22. By setting a baffle component at the end of the feeding channel, the semi-finished terminal at the end of the feeding channel can be blocked, waiting for the clamping component to clamp and transfer it. After the clamping component clamps it, it needs to overcome the elastic preload of the first elastic element to clamp the semi-finished terminal out of the feeding channel. After being clamped, the baffle is reset under the action of the first elastic element. The limiting bolt can ensure that the position of the baffle is always fixed after each reset.

[0047] The first elastic element is a tension spring.

[0048] The end of the baffle 22 away from the first elastic member 24 is provided with a hook portion 25 for hooking the terminal block. The hook portion can just block the thin plate of the terminal block located in the feeding channel. After the clamping component clamps the terminal block, it can push the thin plate of the terminal block open the hook portion and come out from the feeding channel.

[0049] The clamping component includes:

[0050] The first base 26 is slidably mounted on the frame 1;

[0051] The first drive unit 27 is mounted on the frame 1 and its output end is connected to the first base 26;

[0052] The second base 28 is symmetrically installed on both sides of the first base 26;

[0053] The clamping seat 29 is slidably mounted on the second base 28 and symmetrically arranged on both sides of the feeding channel 21;

[0054] The second drive unit 20 is mounted on the second base 28 and its output end is connected to the clamping seat 29. The first drive unit and the second drive unit are cylinders, hydraulic cylinders or linear motors. The first drive unit pushes the first base to slide back and forth on the frame. The second drive unit causes the clamping seat to clamp from both sides of the feeding channel. After clamping and fixing the terminal, the first drive unit provides power to transfer the terminal to the positioning component. Then the second drive unit retracts to release the terminal from the clamping seats on both sides.

[0055] The positioning component 4 includes a movable clamping component and a fixed clamping component 41. The movable clamping component includes:

[0056] The first mounting base 42 is fixedly mounted on the frame 1;

[0057] The movable clamp 43 is laterally slidably installed within the first mounting base 42;

[0058] The second mounting base 44 is fixedly mounted on the frame 1 and located on one side of the first mounting base 42;

[0059] The top block 45 is vertically slidably installed in the second mounting base 44 and rolls with the end of the movable clamp 43;

[0060] The third driving component 46 is fixedly mounted on the frame 1 and its output end is connected to the top block 45. The side wall of the top block 45 is sloping. The movable clamp 43 is provided with a roller 47 at one end near the top block 45. The third driving component is a cylinder, hydraulic cylinder or linear motor, which drives the top block to move up and down. The sloping surface of the top block and the roller roll together, which can drive the movable clamp to slide laterally. The movable clamp cooperates with the pricing component to fix the terminal block.

[0061] A second elastic element 48 is provided between the movable clamp 43 and the second mounting base 44 to connect the two. After the top block descends, the movable clamp 43 is pulled back to its original position by the second elastic element, thereby releasing the clamping and positioning of the movable clamp and the fixed clamp component 41 on the terminal block. The second elastic element is a tension spring, which can provide elastic preload for the second mounting base to reset.

[0062] The rotating assembly 5 includes:

[0063] Turntable 51 is rotatably mounted on the frame 1;

[0064] The fourth drive unit 52 is mounted on the frame 1 and its output end is connected to the turntable 51;

[0065] The third base 53 is fixedly mounted on the turntable 51 and located away from the center;

[0066] Slider 54, which is slidably mounted on the third base 53;

[0067] The fifth driving component 55 is mounted on the third base 53 and its output end is connected to the slider 54;

[0068] The slider 54 is provided with a post 56 for inserting into the terminal block. The fourth driving component is a motor that drives the turntable to rotate. The fifth driving component is a cylinder, hydraulic cylinder or linear motor that can drive the post on the slider to move up and down. The post is inserted into the terminal block. Then the motor drives the turntable to rotate at an appropriate angle, causing the thin plate of the terminal block to bend.

[0069] The frame 1 has a feeding groove 11 between the turntable 51 and the positioning component 4. The feeding component 2 also includes a push rod 6 for pushing the finished product terminal into the feeding groove 11. The push rod is installed on the second base of the clamping component and is located on one side of the movable clamp. When the movable clamp clamps the terminal and places it on the positioning component, the push rod will first push the finished product on the positioning component into the feeding groove, leaving space for the next terminal.
