[0030] Example

[0031] Reference Figure 2 As shown, this utility model discloses an automatic assembly equipment for jump rope handles and foam, including a workbench. On the workbench, a feeding mechanism 10, a moving positioning mechanism 20, and a part picking and pressing mechanism 30 are installed in sequence. The feeding mechanism 10 realizes the braking feeding of foam 601. The moving positioning mechanism 20 moves the foam 601 to a designated position and fixes it. The moving foam 601 is inserted into the handle 60 to realize automatic installation.

[0032] Reference Figure 3 As shown, the feeding mechanism 10 includes a vibratory feeder 102, and a conveying track 1021 is provided at the end of the vibratory feeder 102. Specifically, the feeding mechanism 10 further includes an elevator 101, which is installed on one side of the vibratory feeder 102. The foam 601 is fed to the vibratory feeder 102 via the elevator 101 to further realize automatic feeding. The vibratory feeder 102 conveys the foam 601 to the transfer track, so that the foam 601 are arranged in a vertical position side by side.

[0033] Reference Figure 4 As shown, the moving positioning mechanism 20 includes a picking gripper 201, a moving cylinder 202, and a fixed gripper 203. The picking gripper 201 is installed at the end of the conveying track 1021, and the moving cylinder 202 moves between the fixed gripper 203 and the picking gripper 201. Specifically, the picking gripper 201 includes a bracket, on which a first cylinder 2011 is mounted. A second cylinder 2012 is mounted on the piston rod of the first cylinder 2011, and the picking gripper 201 is mounted on the piston rod of the second cylinder 2012. The first cylinder 2011 drives the second cylinder 2012 to move vertically up and down, and the second cylinder 2012 drives the picking gripper 201 to move horizontally. Through the movement of the first cylinder 2011 and the second cylinder 2012, the picking gripper 201 clamps the foam 601 and moves it from the conveying track 1021 to the moving cylinder 202.

[0034] Furthermore, a slide rail 2021 is installed on the worktable, and a movable cylinder 202 is slidably installed on the slide rail 2021. The piston rod of the movable cylinder 202 is equipped with a second positioning shaft 2022. The material handling gripper 201 moves the foam 601 into the second positioning shaft 2022. The movable cylinder 202 moves along the slide rail 2021 to below the fixed gripper 203. The movable cylinder 202 is controlled to push the second positioning shaft 2022 upward, and the fixed gripper 203 clamps and fixes the foam 601, thus fixing the foam 601.

[0035] Reference Figure 5-6 As shown, the part-removing pressing mechanism 30 includes a robotic arm 301 and a first positioning shaft 302. The robotic arm 301 is equipped with a guide post and a push block, and the push block moves along the guide post. Specifically, after injection molding, the handle 60 moves to the first positioning shaft 302 for positioning. Then, the robotic arm 301 is controlled to move the guide post to insert the foam 601. The guide post inserted into the foam 601 then moves to the upper end of the handle 60. The robotic arm 301 is equipped with a pressing cylinder 3011. The piston rod of the pressing cylinder 3011 is connected to a guide block 3012. The pressing cylinder 3011 pushes the guide block 3012 to move along the guide post, pushing the foam 601 from the guide post to the handle 60, thereby realizing the placement of the foam 601 on the handle 60.

[0036] Furthermore, a suction cup 3013 is installed on one side of the push block on the robotic arm 301. The suction cup 3013 is perpendicular to the direction of the guide post. The robotic arm 301 moves the suction cup 3013 to press against the side of the handle 60 after the foam 601 is installed. Then the robotic arm 301 moves to remove the handle 60 from the first positioning shaft 302.

[0037] In addition, a conveyor belt 50 is provided on the side of the worktable near the first positioning axis 302. After the handle 60 is installed, it is picked up by the suction cup 3013 of the robotic arm 301 and moved to be placed on the conveyor belt 50. The conveyor belt 50 then transports the handle 60 away.

[0038] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
