Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of tooling and fixture technology, and in particular to a tooling and fixture for automatically pressing mouse feet. Background Technology
[0002] When a mouse is used on a hard surface like a desktop for extended periods, its bottom is prone to wear and tear due to friction. Furthermore, prolonged use on rough surfaces can cause hand fatigue. To address these issues, multiple feet are evenly installed on the bottom of the mouse. This reduces friction between the mouse and the desktop and extends the mouse's lifespan. During assembly, workers typically press the feet into grooves on the bottom of the mouse. However, the pressure applied is unpredictable, leading to lower stability between the feet and the mouse. Over time, the feet may detach from the grooves, reducing their adaptability. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a tooling fixture for automatically pressing mouse feet, addressing the shortcomings and deficiencies of existing technologies.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0005] It includes a placement seat, a pressing component, a transport assembly, and a feeding track. The feeding track is located on one side of the placement seat, and the pressing component is located on the transport assembly. The transport direction of the transport assembly is the same as the connection direction of the placement seat and the feeding track. The lower end of the pressing component can correspond to the placement seat and the feeding track respectively under the transport of the transport assembly.
[0006] Preferably, the upper end of the placement base is provided with a placement groove, and the bottom of the placement groove is embedded with a plurality of proximity switches, each of which corresponds to a plurality of mouse feet.
[0007] Preferably, the pressing component includes a push cylinder, a mounting plate, a first suction cup, and a pressing block. The push cylinder is arranged vertically downwards, the mounting plate is disposed at the output end of the push cylinder, the pressing block is disposed at the lower end face of the mounting plate, and the first suction cup is placed vertically and embedded and fixed in the side wall of the mounting plate.
[0008] Preferably, the transport assembly includes a double-headed cylinder and two supports, with the two ends of the output end of the double-headed cylinder respectively mounted on the two supports, and the propulsion cylinder fixed to the outer side wall of the main body of the double-headed cylinder.
[0009] Preferably, the placement seat has a groove at the bottom of the placement slot, and a sensor is disposed in the groove.
[0010] Preferably, a conveyor belt is provided below the feeding track and the placement seat.
[0011] Preferably, a transfer component is provided between the placement seat and the conveyor belt. The transfer component includes a rotating rod, a drive motor, a balance plate, a balance block, and a second suction cup. One end of the rotating rod is located at the output end of the drive motor, the balance plate is rotatably connected to the other end of the rotating rod, the balance block is located in the middle of the lower end face of the balance plate, and the second suction cup is placed vertically and embedded and fixed in the side wall of the balance plate.
[0012] In summary, the beneficial technical effects of this application are as follows:
[0013] After pre-installing the feet on the bottom of the mouse, the mouse is placed on a conveyor belt and then transported to one side of the placement seat. The drive motor is then activated, causing one end of the rotating rod to approach the mouse on the conveyor belt. Under the action of the balance block, the lower end of the second suction cup on the balance plate remains downward. Once the lower end of the second suction cup contacts and secures the mouse, the drive motor rotates in the opposite direction, transporting the mouse above the placement plate. At this point, the second suction cup stops working, and the mouse falls into the placement slot. The drive motor then rotates in the opposite direction, moving the balance plate onto the conveyor belt. A cylinder then pushes the mounting plate downward until the lower end of the first suction cup contacts and adheres to the mouse. Simultaneously, a pressure block presses down on the mouse, firmly securing the feet to the bottom of the mouse. The cylinder then reverses direction to lift the mounting plate, and the body of the dual-headed cylinder moves, transporting the mouse with the lower end of the first suction cup onto the unloading track. The mouse then slides down the unloading track onto the conveyor belt, increasing the stability between the feet and the mouse and improving the mouse's adaptability. Attached Figure Description
