Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the processing technology of pipe joint sealing rings, and in particular to a medical pipe joint sealing ring assembly mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] For pipe fittings, assembly with sealing components is required, such as common sealing rings. The assembly process involves manual operation combined with various production equipment to move the finished sealing ring to the assembly station and complete the assembly with the pipe fitting. For example, Chinese Patent CN 115870917 B discloses an automatic assembly device for pipe fitting sealing rings, including multiple arc-shaped support plates arranged in a ring and overlapping each other. Connecting cylinders are provided at the ends of the arc-shaped support plates. By making the opened sealing ring approximately circular and its inner diameter slightly larger than the outer diameter of the pipe fitting, the sealing ring can be easily transferred and fitted directly onto the pipe fitting, effectively reducing the deformation of the opened sealing ring and facilitating its protection.

[0003] The above-mentioned devices only address the machining of the sealing ring itself to facilitate assembly with the pipe fitting, and are not suitable for assembling the sealing ring with the pipe fitting. Therefore, there is currently a lack of equipment that can ensure the stability of the assembly and machining of the pipe fitting sealing ring. Based on the analysis of existing technical means, this utility model proposes a medical pipe fitting sealing ring assembly mechanism. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the above deficiencies, this utility model provides a medical tube fitting sealing ring assembly mechanism, which ensures the stability of the tube fitting and sealing ring assembly process by establishing a processing equipment including a material handling mechanism and a rotation mechanism.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A medical fitting sealing ring assembly mechanism, the fitting sealing ring assembly mechanism comprising:

[0007] The material handling mechanism includes a material handling head for picking up and placing sealing rings, which is driven by a drive assembly to pick up and assemble the sealing rings;

[0008] The spreading mechanism includes a finger cylinder and a connected spreading component. This spreading mechanism is located below the material handling mechanism and is driven by the finger cylinder to process the sealing ring.

[0009] The material pushing unit includes a push plate, which pushes the sealing ring onto the material taking head by driving the push plate.

[0010] The rotating mechanism drives the material-taking mechanism to rotate so that the outer end of the material-taking head is downward to take material or so that the material-taking head is oriented toward the location of the pipe joint to assemble the sealing ring.

[0011] In this assembly mechanism, the same material picking mechanism is used to pick up the sealing ring and assemble the sealing ring to the pipe joint;

[0012] In this assembly mechanism, the assembly mechanism simultaneously picks up the sealing ring and assembles the pipe fitting by driving the rotation of the material picking mechanism.

[0013] Furthermore, the implemented pick-up head includes an outer sleeve and an inner sleeve, and the sealing ring picked up by the pick-up head is located between the outer sleeve and the inner sleeve.

[0014] The technical means of the above technical solutions, in specific implementation, can form a series of technical solutions, including:

[0015] The spreading mechanism is located below the material handling mechanism and moves outward synchronously through the spreading components to hold the sealing ring to be processed.

[0016] The pusher plate is located between the feeding head and the finger cylinder and is driven by the third cylinder to form a pushing unit.

[0017] The rotating mechanism and the material handling mechanism are respectively located on both sides of the frame and are connected by a shaft.

[0018] Correspondingly, for the rotating mechanism, a rack can be connected to its second cylinder, and the rack can be driven to rotate a drive gear by moving up and down, so that the material handling mechanism can rotate synchronously.

[0019] In selective implementation, a spring can also be installed inside the feeding head.

[0020] This utility model's technical solution, by rationally configuring the corresponding components of the material handling mechanism, rotating mechanism, and spreading mechanism on the same equipment, facilitates the operation from the material handling mechanism being in place, the sealing ring being spread, the material being pushed to the material handling mechanism, and the material handling mechanism rotating to the clamping position of the pipe fitting product for assembly, thereby ensuring the stability of the assembly and processing operation of the pipe fitting and sealing ring.

[0048] The purpose of the medical tube connector sealing ring assembly mechanism implemented in this utility model is to ensure the stability of the tube connector sealing ring assembly process.

[0049] like Figure 1-2 , Figure 9-11 As shown, the medical tube connector sealing ring assembly mechanism of this utility model first includes a material-picking mechanism 2 for picking up the processed sealing ring and a rotating mechanism 5 for reassembling the sealing ring onto the tube connector. In terms of positional connection, the rotating mechanism 5 and the material-picking mechanism 2 are respectively located on both sides of the frame 1, and can be specifically implemented as a shaft connection. A second cylinder 6 is installed above the rotating mechanism 5, and a rack 7 is connected through this second cylinder 6. The teeth of the rack 7 mesh with the teeth of the drive gear 8 at one end of the shaft. Since the other end of the shaft is connected to the material-picking mechanism... The material handling mechanism 2 is connected to the second cylinder 6. Therefore, when the second cylinder 6 drives the rack 7 to move up and down and drives the drive gear 8 to rotate, the material handling mechanism 2 will also rotate synchronously. The positions where the material handling mechanism 2 stops after rotating include the position where the outer end of the material handling head 4 is downward to handle the material, and the position where the material handling head 4 is facing the pipe connector product clamping position 13. The frame where the pipe connector product clamping position 13 is located can use the cylinder 12 as the drive component. Furthermore, a first cylinder 3 is set above the frame where the material handling mechanism 2 is located, which is used to push the material handling head 4 downward to the material handling position.

[0050] In practical implementation, the above-designed medical tube connector sealing ring assembly mechanism has a finger cylinder 9 installed below the material taking head 4. The finger cylinder 9 is connected to the spreading component 14, and the sealing ring to be processed is fitted onto the spreading component 14. When the sealing ring needs to be processed, the finger cylinder 9 can drive the spreading component 14 to expand outward to change the size of the sealing ring.

[0051] In practical implementation, the medical tube connector sealing ring assembly mechanism designed above has a third cylinder 10 below the finger cylinder 9. At the same time, a push plate 11 is set at the position between the picking head 4 and the finger cylinder 9. The push plate 11 is driven by the third cylinder 10 to form a pushing unit between the picking head 4 and the finger cylinder 9.

[0052] like Figure 9-10 As shown, the medical tube connector sealing ring assembly mechanism implemented by this utility model includes a picking head 4 comprising an outer sleeve 401 and an inner sleeve 403. The sealing ring 402 picked up by the picking head 4 is located between the outer sleeve 401 and the inner sleeve 403. In specific operation, the O-ring can also be dislodged by means of an internal spring, which compresses the spring when the internal spring of the picking head 4 is subjected to pressure.

[0053] like Figure 1-8 As shown, the medical tube connector sealing ring assembly mechanism implemented by this utility model allows the cylinder 12 of the equipment located outside the assembly mechanism to push the corresponding component to the tube connector product clamping position 13 to clamp the corresponding product tube connector. When the assembly mechanism starts working, the specific working state can be referred to Figure 1-2 As shown, the finger cylinder 9 drives the spreading assembly 14 to spread open the sealing ring (usually an O-ring) in the processing position, and the first cylinder 3 pushes the picking head 4 downward to the picking position. The specific working state can be found in [reference needed]. Figure 3-4 As shown, at this time, the third cylinder 10 pushes the push plate 11 to push the sealing ring onto the inner sleeve 403 of the picking head 4; then, the first cylinder 3 retracts, causing the picking head 4 to move upward with the sealing ring, and the second cylinder 6, carrying the rack 7, pushes the drive gear 8 to rotate, driving the entire picking mechanism 2 to rotate to the pipe joint product clamping position 13. The specific working state can be found in the following diagram. Figure 5-6 As shown, finally, the first cylinder 3 extends and places the sealing ring onto the pipe fitting for assembly. For specific operating procedures, please refer to [reference needed]. Figure 7-8 As shown.

[0054] The technical solution implemented by this utility model mainly proposes to provide support for the assembly of medical tubing connector sealing rings by designing a set of equipment for sealing ring processing and pipe fitting assembly. Due to different design and application requirements, there are no mandatory requirements for the specific selection of cylinder models, sealing ring sizes, etc., used in practice, as these alternatives are not significantly related to the technical solution implemented by this utility model. Those skilled in the art can refer to existing conventional technical methods for selection.

[0055] In the description of this specification, the terms "connection", "set", "have", etc. are interpreted in a broad sense. For example, "connection" can be a fixed connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate component without affecting the relationship between components and the technical effect. It can also be an integral connection or a partial connection. In such cases, those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

[0056] The above description of the embodiments is intended to enable those skilled in the art to understand and apply them. It is obvious to those skilled in the art that they can easily make various modifications to these examples and apply the general principles described herein to other embodiments without creative effort. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model is not limited to the above situations.
