Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of welding technology, specifically a welding mechanism for use on an assembly line. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of the electrical and electronic industry, terminals, as crucial components for electrical connections, directly impact the performance of the entire electrical system through their quality and reliability. Traditional terminal soldering methods rely heavily on manual operation, resulting in low efficiency and inconsistent soldering quality. Therefore, developing an automated soldering mechanism capable of efficiently and accurately completing terminal soldering tasks is of great significance for improving the production efficiency and product quality of electrical products.

[0003] Currently, some automated terminal welding equipment, such as automatic terminal insertion machines and automatic welding robots, already exist on the market, improving welding quality and efficiency. However, these devices still have some problems in practical applications, such as the inability to accurately monitor terminal positions during operation and complex operation, which limits their widespread application on electrical product assembly lines.

[0004] In view of this, a welding mechanism for an assembly line is provided to overcome the above-mentioned defects. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

[0020] 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. Example

[0021] See Figure 1-4A welding mechanism for an assembly line includes a base plate 1 and a wave soldering machine 6. A first support frame 2 is fixedly mounted on the top surface of the base plate 1, and a side dimension detection camera 3 is fixedly mounted on the side wall of the first support frame 2. A movable moving platform 10 is mounted on the top surface of the base plate 1, and a second electric push rod 9 is also fixedly mounted on the top surface of the base plate 1, with one end of the second electric push rod 9 fixedly connected to the moving platform 10. The wave soldering machine 6 is fixedly mounted on the top surface of the moving platform 10. A terminal placement tray 7 is provided above the base plate 1, and its position corresponds to the position of the side dimension detection camera 3.

[0022] The entire welding mechanism is supported by a base plate 1. The first support frame 2 supports the lateral dimension inspection camera 3, which is responsible for inspecting the lateral dimensions of the terminals placed on the terminal placement tray 7 to ensure that each terminal meets the welding requirements. The terminal placement tray 7 and the lateral dimension inspection camera 3 have a perfectly corresponding viewing angle, which facilitates fast and accurate inspection and monitors the position of the welding mechanism during the welding process. Once an operational deviation is detected, the user can promptly identify and remove defective terminals.

[0023] Furthermore, a square-shaped waste box 13 is fixedly installed on the base plate 1, and a third electric push rod 11 is also fixedly installed on the top surface of the base plate 1. A rotatable folding cover 12 is provided on the side wall of the third electric push rod 11, with its top hinged to the rear end of the folding cover 12. The folding cover 12 is adapted to the waste box 13. The third electric push rod 11 is connected to the rear end of the folding cover 12 via a hinge, and can drive the folding cover 12 to open and close. After the welding operation is completed, the failed welding waste terminals can be directly placed into the waste box 13 without manual cleaning.

[0024] Furthermore, a second support frame 4 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the base plate 1, and a first electric push rod 5 is fixedly installed on its top. A picking claw 8 is connected to one side of the first electric push rod 5. A placement tray recess 14 is opened on the top surface of the terminal placement tray 7, which is adapted to the picking claw 8. The picking claw 8 can accurately grasp the terminals on the terminal placement tray 7 and move them below the wave soldering machine 6 for soldering. The placement tray recess 14 ensures that the picking claw 8 can accurately position and grasp each terminal.

[0025] In practice, the terminals are first guided onto the terminal placement tray 7 by other components of the assembly line. Then, the side dimension inspection camera 3 inspects them to confirm they meet welding standards. Next, the second electric push rod 9 drives the moving platform 10 and the wave soldering machine 6 to weld the terminals. During this process, the side dimension inspection camera 3 continuously monitors the terminal position. If any terminal is found to be misaligned, it can be immediately clamped and replaced by the pick-up claw 8, thus ensuring the quality of the welded finished product.

[0026] This embodiment significantly improves welding efficiency by automating the introduction, inspection, and welding processes. Compared to traditional manual welding methods, automated welding reduces human intervention, thereby shortening the welding cycle and increasing production efficiency. Simultaneously, the continuous monitoring by the side dimension inspection camera 3 and the timely response of the pick-up claw 8 ensure the quality of the welded products; only terminals that meet the standards are welded onto the product, avoiding welding defects caused by terminal misalignment.

[0027] Working principle: The terminals are first introduced to the top of the terminal placement tray 7 by other components of the assembly line. Then, the side dimension inspection camera 3 will inspect the terminals on the terminal placement tray 7 to confirm that they meet the welding standards. Subsequently, the second electric push rod 9 drives the moving platform 10 and the wave soldering machine 6 to weld the terminals. The side dimension inspection camera 3 continuously monitors the terminal position during the welding process. When the terminal is misaligned, it can be detected in time, and the terminal can be picked up and replaced by the pick-up claw 8, so that the quality of the welded products of the device can be guaranteed.

[0028] By automating the introduction, inspection, and welding processes, this application significantly improves welding efficiency. Compared to traditional manual welding methods, automated welding reduces human intervention, thereby shortening the welding cycle and increasing production efficiency.

[0029] The continuous monitoring by the side dimension inspection camera 3 and the timely response of the pick-up claw 8 ensure the quality of the welded products. Only terminals that meet the standards will be welded onto the product, thereby avoiding welding defects caused by terminal misalignment.
