Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of aluminum bolt waxing technology, specifically relating to an automated aluminum bolt waxing production device. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of the new energy vehicle industry, the arc welding method for grounding aluminum car bodies is becoming increasingly widespread. This grounding method consists of an aluminum nut and an aluminum bolt. The aluminum bolt is typically made of Al5019, and the aluminum nut is typically made of Al5052. Both are non-heat-treated strengthened aluminum alloys, and their mechanical properties are ensured through cold forming and work hardening. Surface treatment typically involves titanate passivation. In practical applications, the finished parts need to be assembled with bolts and nuts according to a specific torque combination, and then connected to the aluminum car body sheet metal via arc welding.

[0003] However, due to the material properties of aluminum bolts and nuts, several problems arise during grounding. On the one hand, if the bolts and nuts are lubricated, the coefficient of friction between the threads and the bearing surface decreases, and the bolts may yield under relatively small combined torques. On the other hand, without lubrication, the threads of the bolts and nuts are prone to jamming during welding. Therefore, aluminum bolts and nuts need to be passivated with titanate, and lubrication should only be applied to the threads of the passivated aluminum bolts, while ensuring that other parts of the bolt (including the bolt head and bearing surface) are not contaminated with lubricant.

[0004] Currently, aluminum bolt waxing is typically done manually during the manufacturing process. However, manual operation makes it difficult to control the waxing precision, resulting in poor product performance consistency and a high scrap rate. Therefore, there is an urgent need for an automated aluminum bolt waxing production device to solve these problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the problems mentioned above in the background technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an automated production device for waxing aluminum bolts.

[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned technical objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0007] An automated aluminum bolt waxing production device includes a base, a feeding mechanism installed on the inner side of the base, a gripping robotic arm installed on one side of the feeding mechanism, an automatic liquid level control device installed inside the base, a conveying mechanism provided on the outer side of the base, transfer mechanisms installed on both sides of the conveying mechanism, a heating and curing device installed between the two transfer mechanisms, the heating and curing device being located on one side of the base, a product tray being conveyed on the conveying mechanism, a tray collection mechanism being connected to the output end of the conveying mechanism, and one side of the conveying mechanism being located at the front end of the automatic liquid level control device.

[0008] The feeding mechanism includes a vibrating feeder, the output end of which is connected to a feeding channel. A support is installed at the bottom of the feeding channel, and the bottom of the support is mounted on a base. A first cylinder is installed on one side of the top of the support, and a clamp is installed at the power output end of the first cylinder. A linear guide rail is also installed on the top of the support, and a clamping seat is installed at the power output end of the linear guide rail. The clamping seat has several clamping slots, which are located at the output end of the feeding channel. The clamping seat has clamping protrusions corresponding to the several clamping slots.

[0009] Further specifying, the conveying mechanism includes a first conveyor line and a second conveyor line. The transplanting mechanism is installed at the output ends of the first and second conveyor lines. The second conveyor line is horizontally arranged on the base, and the first conveyor line is vertically arranged on one side of the second conveyor line. The heat curing device is installed on the second conveyor line. First sensors are installed on both sides of the input end of the first conveyor line. Second sensors are installed on both sides of the front end of the first conveyor line of the transplanting mechanism. Third sensors are installed on all four sides of the input end of the second conveyor line. Fourth sensors are installed on both sides of the input and output ends of the second conveyor line of the heat curing device. Fifth sensors are installed on both sides of the input and output ends of the second conveyor line of the transplanting mechanism. This structural design facilitates the conveying of product trays and simultaneously uses sensors to detect whether the trays are in place.

[0010] Further specifying, a bending frame is installed on the outer side of the second conveyor line, a second cylinder is installed on the top of the bending frame, and a top block is connected to the power output end of the second cylinder. A side support frame is installed on the top of the base, and a third cylinder is installed on one side of the side support frame. A side baffle is connected to the power output end of the third cylinder. This structural design facilitates the limiting and fixing of the product tray, making it easier to place the product on the product tray.

[0011] Further specifying, the transplanting mechanism includes a top plate, with support seats mounted on all four sides of the bottom of the top plate. The bottom of each support seat is screwed and secured to the first and second conveyor lines. A linear bearing is mounted on the bottom of the top plate, and an L-shaped push plate is mounted on the power output end of the linear bearing. This structural design facilitates the movement of the product tray.

[0012] Further specifying, the tray collection mechanism includes a frame, within which an electric lifting assembly is installed. The power output end of the electric lifting assembly is connected to a receiving rack, which is located at the output end of the conveying mechanism. This structural design facilitates the lowering of the output product trays, making it convenient for workers to retrieve the materials.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: By setting up a feeding mechanism, a gripping robotic arm, an automatic liquid level control device, a conveying mechanism, a transplanting mechanism, a heating and curing device, a product tray and a tray collection mechanism, this utility model enables the product tray to circulate within the conveying mechanism, allowing the aluminum bolts to complete a series of processes such as feeding, waxing, curing and removal, thus achieving automated operation. Compared with manual processes, this greatly improves production efficiency, while avoiding the phenomenon of poor product precision and consistency caused by manual operation. The entire process achieves automated control, reduces manual intervention, lowers labor intensity, and improves the stability and reliability of production. Attached Figure Description

[0030] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand this utility model, the technical solution of this utility model will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0031] Example 1, such as Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, an automated aluminum bolt waxing production device includes a base 1, a feeding mechanism 2 installed on the inner side of the base 1, a gripping robotic arm 4 installed on one side of the base 1 on the feeding mechanism 2, an automatic liquid level control device 5 installed inside the base 1, a conveying mechanism 6 provided on the outer side of the base 1, a transfer mechanism 7 installed on both sides of the conveying mechanism 6, a heating and curing device 8 installed between the two transfer mechanisms 7 on the conveying mechanism 6, the heating and curing device 8 being located on one side of the base 1, a product tray 9 being conveyed on the conveying mechanism 6, a tray collection mechanism 10 being connected to the output end of the conveying mechanism 6, and one side of the conveying mechanism 6 being located at the front end of the automatic liquid level control device 5.

[0032] The feeding mechanism 2 includes a vibrating feeder 201. The output end of the vibrating feeder 201 is connected to a feeding channel 202. A support 203 is installed at the bottom of the feeding channel 202. The bottom of the support 203 is installed on the base 1. A first cylinder 204 is installed on one side of the top of the support 203. A clamping seat 205 is installed at the power output end of the first cylinder 204. A linear guide rail 206 is also installed on the top of the support 203. A clamping seat 207 is installed at the power output end of the linear guide rail 206. The clamping seat 207 is provided with several clamping slots 208. The clamping slots 208 are located at the output end of the feeding channel 202. The clamping seat 205 is provided with clamping protrusions 209 corresponding to the several clamping slots 208.

[0033] In this embodiment, during use, several product trays 9 are first placed sequentially at the input end of the conveying mechanism 6. The conveying mechanism 6 then transports the product trays 9. After the product trays 9 are transported by the conveying mechanism 6 and enter the transfer mechanism 7 on one side, the transfer mechanism 7 pushes the product trays 9 to the front end of the automatic liquid level control device 5. At this time, the feeding mechanism 2 performs the feeding operation, using the vibrating feeder 201 to transport the aluminum bolts into the feeding channel 202, so that the aluminum bolts are on the upper... Initial arrangement takes place within the feed channel 202. Then, the linear guide 206 moves the clamping seat 207 to the output end of the feed channel 202, allowing the aluminum bolts in the feed channel 202 to be output to the clamping slots 208 on the clamping seat 207 for initial positioning. During the feeding process, the linear guide 206 continuously moves the clamping seat 207, causing the clamping slots 208 on the clamping seat 207 to sequentially load the aluminum bolts. Once the clamping slots 208 on the clamping seat 207 are full of aluminum bolts, the linear guide 206... The guide rail 206 moves the clamping seat 207 to the clamping seat 205. At this time, the first cylinder 204 is activated and pushes the clamping seat 205. The clamping seat 205 pushes the clamping protrusion 209 into the clamping groove 208 to perform secondary precise positioning of the bolt. After the aluminum bolts are arranged by the feeding mechanism 2, the aluminum bolts are gripped by the gripping robot arm 4. After the gripping robot arm 4 grips the aluminum bolts, the first cylinder 204 pushes the clamping seat 205 to reset. The gripping robot arm 4 moves the aluminum bolts to the automatic liquid level control device 5 for waxing. After waxing, the product is transferred to the product tray 9 by the gripping robot arm 4. Then, the conveying mechanism 6 conveys the product tray 9 containing the product into the heating and curing device 8. The product is heated and cured by the heating and curing device 8. After heating and curing, the product is output by the conveying mechanism 6 into the transfer mechanism 7. The transfer mechanism 7 pushes the product tray 9 into the tray collection mechanism 10, waiting for the staff to collect it.

[0034] Among them, the gripping robotic arm 4 can grip 4 products at a time.

[0035] In this process, the product tray 9 holds 252 products at a time. When the gripping robotic arm 4 finishes waxing the 252 products, the conveying mechanism 6 works to send the products into the heating and curing device 8. The product heating and curing time is set to 20 minutes.

[0036] Example 2, as Figure 1As shown, this embodiment adds the following structure based on embodiment 1: the conveying mechanism 6 includes a first conveying line 601 and a second conveying line 602; the transplanting mechanism 7 is installed at the output ends of the first conveying line 601 and the second conveying line 602; the second conveying line 602 is arranged horizontally on the base 1; the first conveying line 601 is arranged vertically on one side of the second conveying line 602; the heating and curing device 8 is installed on the second conveying line 602; a first sensor 603 is installed on both sides of the input end of the first conveying line 601; a second sensor 604 is installed on both sides of the front end of the transplanting mechanism 7; a third sensor 605 is installed on all four sides of the input end of the second conveying line 602; a fourth sensor 606 is installed on both sides of the input and output ends of the heating and curing device 8; and a fifth sensor 607 is installed on both sides of the input and output ends of the transplanting mechanism 7.

[0037] In this embodiment, during use, the product tray 9 is first placed on the first conveyor line 601. At this time, the first sensor 603 detects the product tray 9. Then, the first conveyor line 601 runs to transport the product tray 9 to the transfer mechanism 7 at the output end. At this time, the second sensor 604 detects the product tray 9 and, through the transfer mechanism 7, sends the product tray 9 into the second conveyor line 602. After the product tray 9 enters the second conveyor line 602, the third sensors 605 on all four sides of the second conveyor line 602 sense its position. Then, the gripping robotic arm 4 can be controlled to grip the aluminum bolt, apply wax, and place it on the product tray 9. After the gripping robotic arm 4 completes the waxing of the aluminum bolt, the second conveyor line 602 moves the product tray 9 into the heating and curing device 8. At this time, the fourth sensor 606 senses and detects that it is in position. After heating and curing, the second conveyor line 602 moves the product tray 9 into the transfer mechanism 7 at the output end. At this time, the fifth sensor 607 detects the product tray 9 and sends the product tray 9 into the tray collection mechanism 10 through the transfer mechanism 7.

[0038] Example 3, as Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, this embodiment adds the following structure based on embodiment 1: a bending frame 11 is installed on the outside of the second conveyor line 602, a second cylinder 12 is installed on the top of the bending frame 11, a top block 13 is connected to the power output end of the second cylinder 12, a side support frame 14 is installed on the top of the base 1, a third cylinder 15 is installed on one side of the side support frame 14, and a side baffle 16 is connected to the power output end of the third cylinder 15.

[0039] In this embodiment, when the third sensors 605 on all four sides of the second conveyor line 602 sense that the product tray 9 is in place, the second cylinder 12 and the third cylinder 15 are activated. The second cylinder 12 pushes the top block 13, causing the top block 13 to press against the side of the product tray 9. The third cylinder 15 pushes the side baffle 16 upward, causing the side baffle 16 to extend out of the second conveyor line 602, limiting the movement direction of the product tray 9, thereby achieving a precise positioning effect for the product tray 9, so as to facilitate the subsequent placement of aluminum bolts.

[0040] Example 4, as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, this embodiment adds the following structure based on embodiment 1: the transplanting mechanism 7 includes a top plate 701, and support seats 702 are installed on the four sides of the bottom of the top plate 701. The bottom of the support seats 702 is locked onto the first conveyor line 601 and the second conveyor line 602 by screws. A linear bearing 703 is installed on the bottom of the top plate 701, and a push plate 704 with an L-shaped structure is installed at the power output end of the linear bearing 703.

[0041] In this embodiment, when the second sensor 604 detects the product tray 9 and the fifth sensor 607 detects the product tray 9, the linear bearing 703 is activated. The linear bearing 703 drives the push plate 704 to move linearly, thereby pushing the push plate 704 to push the product tray 9 out from the output end of the first conveyor line 601 and the second conveyor line 602.

[0042] Example 5, as Figure 6 As shown, this embodiment adds the following structure based on embodiment 1: the tray collection mechanism 10 includes a frame 1001, an electric lifting assembly 1002 is installed in the frame 1001, the power output end of the electric lifting assembly 1002 is connected to a receiving rack 1003, and the receiving rack 1003 is located at the output end of the conveying mechanism 6.

[0043] In this embodiment, after the product tray 9 is output from the second conveyor line 602 by the transfer mechanism 7, it enters the receiving rack 1003. At this time, the electric lifting component 1002 controls the receiving rack 1003 to descend, so that the receiving rack 1003 drives the product tray 9 to move down, which makes it easier for the staff to collect the products on the product tray 9. After the products are collected, the empty product tray 9 is put back into the input end of the first conveyor line 601 for repeated use.

[0044] The above embodiments are merely illustrative of the principles and effects of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Any person skilled in the art can modify or alter the above embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model. Therefore, all equivalent modifications or alterations made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and technical concept disclosed in this utility model should still be covered by the claims of this utility model.
