[0035] Please refer to the appendix carefully. Figure 1-6 A workpiece pressing integrated machine includes a machine box 1, a vibrating feeding component 2 connected to one side of the machine box 1, and a first cylinder 3 connected to the discharge port of the machine box 1 near the vibrating feeding component 2.

[0036] In use, a dual-axis transfer mechanism 4 for transporting workpieces is connected to the lifting end of the machine housing 1 near the first cylinder 3. A pressing station 5 is also provided inside the machine housing 1 in conjunction with the dual-axis transfer mechanism 4. A Z-axis drive module 6 is connected to the top of the machine housing 1 above the pressing station 5, and a pressure block 7 is connected to the telescopic end of the Z-axis drive module 6. The workpiece in the pressing station 5 is pressed using the pressure block 7.

[0037] In one embodiment:

[0038] The vibrating feeder assembly 2 includes a vibrating feeder 8, a first proximity switch 9 located near the discharge port of the vibrating feeder 8, and a limiting seat 10 connected to the discharge port of the vibrating feeder 8; the inner side of the limiting seat 10 has an arc groove 11 that can accommodate the telescopic end of the first cylinder 3. When the first proximity switch 9 detects the position of the workpiece, the first cylinder 3 starts to lift the workpiece.

[0039] The dual-axis transfer mechanism 4 includes a connecting frame 12, a second cylinder 13, and a third cylinder 14. The connecting frame 12 has a horizontally oriented groove 15. The third cylinder 14 is slidably disposed in the groove 15. The second cylinder 13 is installed on one side of the connecting frame 12, and its telescopic end is connected to the side wall of the third cylinder 14. The telescopic end of the third cylinder 14 is connected to a pressure plate 26 via a spring rod. A pneumatic gripper 27 is also installed on the pressure plate 26, penetrating the bottom wall of the pressure plate 26. The third cylinder 14 extends to the upper part of the workpiece, and the workpiece is pressed by the pressure plate 26 and clamped by the pneumatic gripper 27. At this time, the workpiece is moved to the upper part of the pressing station 5 by opening and closing the second cylinder 13. The workpiece is then connected and fixed to the workpiece sleeve post 25 at the top of the pressing station 5 by extending the third cylinder 14.

[0040] When press-fitting, the first mounting plate 16 and the second mounting plate 17, arranged sequentially from top to bottom, are connected to the Z-axis drive module 6 inside the chassis 1.

[0041] The Z-axis drive module 6 is an electric cylinder press 18 installed on the top of the first mounting plate 16. The telescopic end of the electric cylinder press 18 passes through the first mounting plate 16 and is connected to the second mounting plate 17 with a pressure block 7.

[0042] The top of the second mounting plate 17 is also connected to a pressure sensor 19 that is sleeved with the telescopic end of the electric cylinder press 18. The telescopic end of the electric cylinder press 18 is located on the upper part of the second mounting plate 17 and is also connected to a pressure ring 20 that is matched with the pressure sensor 19. The top of the second mounting plate 17 is provided with a connecting foot 21 that engages with the pressure ring 20.

[0043] The second mounting plate 17 is slidably connected to the chassis 1 via the column 22;

[0044] When the electric cylinder press 18 starts, the telescopic end extends, and the second mounting plate 17 moves down through the pressure ring 20. The pressure block 7 contacts the workpiece. The pressure sensor detects whether the pressure has reached the set value. Once the pressure is reached, the pressing is completed. After pressing, the electric cylinder press 18 retracts. After the second proximity switch detects that it is in position, the reset is successful.

[0045] like Figure 6-7 As shown, the robotic arm, in conjunction with the grippers used to hold the workpiece, can also be used to load a second workpiece and unload it after pressing, making it suitable for different production processes.
