[0002] Electronic connectors, also known as circuit connectors or electrical connectors, are conductor devices that bridge two conductors in a circuit, allowing current or signals to flow from one conductor to the other. The terminals of electronic connectors are bent conductive sheets. During the manufacturing process, the terminals of electronic connectors need to be bent multiple times, and the production of these terminals requires the use of bending forming equipment.

[0003] Existing electronic connector pin bending devices can only adapt to specific connector models, such as USB and HDMI. The pin bending position, angle, and path are all preset by fixed molds or mechanical structures. This kind of customized stamping module requires the development of molds separately for each type of connector, resulting in low equipment versatility. When the production task is switched to other models, the entire set of molds needs to be replaced and the mechanical parameters need to be adjusted, which is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and costly. To address these issues, an electronic connector multi-bending integrated forming device is proposed. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

[0032] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0033] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 The present invention provides an embodiment of an electronic connector multiple bending integral forming device, including a support frame 1, which serves as the main body of the device, supports the forming component 10 and the adjustment component 11, and provides a stable working platform. The forming component 10 is provided on the top of the support frame 1, and the adjustment component 11 is provided inside the support frame 1. The adjustment component 11 includes a fixing seat 111, which is fixedly connected to the surface of the support frame 1. A rotating plate 112 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the fixing seat 111.

[0034] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 The rotating plate 112 is composed of two sets of quarter-sector plates symmetrically arranged on the surface of a cylinder. The rotating plate 112 is integrally formed. A control plate 113 is fixedly connected to the surface of the rotating plate 112. The top of the rotating plate 112 contacts an elastic sheet 114. There are two sets of elastic sheets 114. The rightmost end of the elastic sheet 114 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the fixing base 111. The elastic sheet 114 is a metal sheet with elasticity. When the elastic sheet 114 is not in contact with the elastic sheet 114, by pulling the support block 105, the edge of the limiting groove 116 at the bottom of the support block 105 is pressed against the wedge block 115, so that the wedge block 115 causes the elastic sheet 114 to undergo elastic deformation and bend downward, so that the support block 105 can be quickly removed.

[0035] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 A wedge block 115 is fixedly connected to the top left side of the elastic sheet 114. The cross-section of the wedge block 115 is triangular. The shape of the limiting groove 116 matches the shape of the wedge block 115. A support block 105 is inserted into the surface of the fixed seat 111. A limiting groove 116 is provided at the bottom of the support block 105. A positioning rod 117 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the rotating plate 112. The top of the positioning rod 117 is elastically connected to the inner wall of the rotating plate 112 through a return spring 118. The return spring 118 applies downward pressure to the positioning rod 117. A positioning hole is provided at the bottom of the inner wall of the fixed seat 111. The number of positioning holes is set to four. The four positioning holes are arranged in a ring at equal angular intervals inside the fixed seat 111, so that the bottom end of the positioning rod 117 is inserted into the positioning hole of the fixed seat 111 to help position and fix the rotating plate 112 after rotation.

[0036] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5The molding assembly 10 includes an electric cylinder 101, which is fixedly connected to the top of the support frame 1. A pressure plate 102 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the output shaft of the electric cylinder 101. The electric cylinder 101 drives the pressure plate 102 to move vertically up and down to compress and fix the electronic connector. The molding assembly 10 also includes an electric cylinder 103, which is located to the right of the electric cylinder 101 and is fixedly connected to the top of the support frame 1. A pressure block 104 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the output shaft of the electric cylinder 103. The electric cylinder 103 drives the semi-circular pressure block 104 to apply pressure to the arc bending part of the connector to perform arc bending. The pressure plate 102 is located directly above the support block 105. The cross-section of the pressure block 104 is semi-circular. A placement groove 106 is provided on the top of the support block 105. The placement groove 106 is used to position the electronic connector. Its shape matches the part of the connector to be bent and provides a support reference surface.

[0037] Working principle: During use, according to the bending process requirements of the electronic connector, the support block 105 is inserted into the surface of the fixed base 111. Then, the control board 113 rotates to drive the rotating plate 112 to rotate. When the rotating plate 112 rotates, it drives the support block 105 to rotate synchronously. When the rotating plate 112 rotates 90 degrees, the positioning rod 117 on the inner wall of the rotating plate 112 is inserted into the positioning hole of the fixed base 111 under the action of the return spring 118, initially fixing the position of the rotating plate 112. At the same time, during the rotation of the rotating plate 112, the top of the rotating plate 112 contacts the elastic sheet 114, so that the elastic sheet 114 cannot deform. The wedge 115 at the top left end of the elastic sheet 114 is embedded in the limiting groove 116 at the bottom of the support block 105, thereby firmly locking the support block 105 and ensuring that the support block 105 does not shift during bending.

[0038] Subsequently, the electronic connector to be processed is placed in the placement slot 106 of the support block 105. The electric cylinder 101 is started, and its output shaft drives the pressure plate 102 to press down vertically, squeezing and fixing the connector terminals to ensure that the connector terminals will not shift during subsequent bending, thus improving stability. Then, the electric cylinder 103 is started to drive the semi-circular pressure block 104 to bend the arc segment of the connector. The semi-circular cross section of the pressure block 104 ensures that the curvature of the connector terminals is uniform at the bending point, realizing the multi-segment bending and integral forming of the electronic connector.

[0039] If multiple bends are required, simply move the terminals of the connector to complete the bending action of different parts in sequence. When it is necessary to change the production task to other models and replace the mold support block 105, rotate the rotating plate 112 ninety degrees so that the top of the rotating plate 112 is not in contact with the elastic sheet 114, pull the support block 105, and then pull the support block 105 to the left. This causes the edge of the limiting groove 116 at the bottom of the support block 105 to squeeze the wedge block 115, thereby causing the wedge block 115 to drive the elastic sheet 114 to undergo elastic deformation and bend downward. This allows the support block 105 to be quickly removed and replaced with a support plate 105 of other models, improving the versatility of the equipment.

[0040] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
