[0028] 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.

[0029] Please see Figures 1 to 7 This utility model provides a technical solution: an automatic plug assembly device, comprising: a support body 1; a support frame 2 installed on the top of the support body 1 by bolts; a rotating top plate 3 rotatably disposed on the top of the support frame 2, and a plurality of first support members 13 are fixedly installed on the top of the rotating top plate 3 at equal intervals by bolts; a limiting slide plate 20 symmetrically slidably disposed inside the first support member 13, and a second spring 21 symmetrically disposed on one side of the limiting slide plate 20, one end of the second spring 21 being connected to the first support member 13; an external adjusting member 14 fixedly connected to the outside of the limiting slide plate 20, and the external adjusting member 14 being slidably connected to the first support member 13; and a second feeding trough 23 opened on the first support member 13 and the external adjusting member 14. Inside component 14, a second inclined top groove 24 is provided on the inner side of the second discharge trough 23; the feeding support 4 is bolted to the top of the supporting body 1, and a sliding top plate 6 is slidably provided on the top of the feeding support 4, with top rods 7 symmetrically installed on one side of the sliding top plate 6; the feeding seat 8 is slidably provided inside the feeding support 4, and a second cylinder 9 is installed inside the feeding support 4, with the output end of the second cylinder 9 fixedly connected to the feeding seat 8; the first fixed bracket 26 is fixedly installed on the top of the supporting body 1, and a third cylinder 27 is installed on one side of the first fixed bracket 26, with a first top frame 28 that cooperates with the second discharge trough 23 at the output end of the third cylinder 27; the discharge guide frame 25 is bolted to the top of the supporting body 1.

[0030] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the plug housing is fed through the second vibrating feeding plate 37, and guided by the discharge conduit 31 on one side of the second vibrating feeding plate 37. The housing moves within the discharge conduit 31 to the inside of the first discharge trough 15 and the first inclined top trough 16. The first discharge trough 15 restricts the position of the plug housing. During feeding, the output end of the fourth cylinder 30 drives the second top frame 32 to move downward. The second top frame 32 pushes the housing inside the first discharge trough 15 and the first inclined top trough 16, pushing the housing and causing the first inclined top trough 16 and the second external adjusting member 22 to move outward. Adjusting component 22 drives the limiting slide bar 17 to move outward, pressing the first spring 18 through the limiting slide bar 17. The housing enters the inner side of the second discharge trough 23 and the second inclined top trough 24 through the gap between the second support component 19 and the second external adjusting component 22. Then, the second top frame 32 moves upward to reset. At this time, the first spring 18 drives the limiting slide bar 17 and the second external adjusting component 22 to reset. The housing continues to be fed through the discharge guide 31. After the housing enters the second discharge trough 23 and the second inclined top trough 24, the output end of the servo motor 33 drives the rotating top plate 3 and each of the first support components 13 on the top to move and adjust, rotating the housing to the top clamping seat. On one side of cylinder 36, the output end of cylinder 5 drives the clamping seat 36 to move, and the clamping seat 36 presses and positions the two housings. After positioning, the housings rotate to one side of the feeding support 4. The metal inserts are fed by the vibrating feeding plate 12. The metal inserts are guided one by one into the feeding seat 8 through the discharge channel 11. The output end of cylinder 9 drives the feeding seat 8 to move upward. The output end of cylinder 5 drives the sliding top plate 6 and the push rod 7 to move. The push rod 7 pushes the metal inserts placed in the feeding seat 8 into the plug housings placed in the second discharge groove 23 and the second inclined top groove 24. After insertion into the plug housing, the output end of cylinder 5 drives the sliding top plate 6 and the push rod 7 to reset. Then, the output end of servo motor 33 drives the rotating top plate 3 to continue rotating. When the assembled plug reaches below cylinder 27 and top frame 28, the output end of cylinder 27 drives top frame 28 to move downward. Top frame 28 pushes the plug in the second discharge slot 23 and the second inclined top slot 24. The plug pushes the second inclined top slot 24 and the first external adjustment component 14. The first external adjustment component 14 drives the limit slide plate 20 to press the second spring 21. The plug falls into the discharge guide frame 25 and is guided out through the discharge guide frame 25.

The output end of the first cylinder 5 is fixedly connected to the sliding top plate 6.

[0032] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the output end of the second cylinder 9 drives the loading seat 8 to move up and down for adjustment. The loading seat 8 drives the limiting support rod 10 to slide and connect with the loading support 4, thereby raising the plug metal insert on the loading seat 8.

[0037] In one embodiment, such as Figures 1 to 7 As shown, a support base 34 is bolted to the top of the support body 1, and a No. 5 cylinder 35 is bolted to one side of the support base 34. A clamping seat 36 is fixed to the output end of the No. 5 cylinder 35.

[0038] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the output end of the fifth cylinder 35 drives the top clamping seat 36 to move, and the top clamping seat 36 performs the jacking and positioning treatment on the housing in the second discharge trough 23 and the second inclined top trough 24.

[0039] In one embodiment, such as Figures 1 to 7 As shown, a servo motor 33 is bolted to the bottom of the support frame 2, and the output end of the servo motor 33 is fixedly connected to the rotating top plate 3.
