[0023] 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
[0024] Please see Figure 1 - Figure 4 An automatic cable management mechanism for assembling electronic products in this embodiment includes a frame 1, a lifting platform 2 at the top of the frame 1, an electric slide rail 3 at the top of the frame 1, the electric slide rail 3 being located on the side of the lifting platform 2, a storage tray 4 being slidably connected above the electric slide rail 3, a plurality of car radar bodies 101 being arranged above the storage tray 4, and a movable plate 5 being slidably connected to the side of the lifting platform 2.
[0025] The elevator 2 is equipped with a cable management mechanism via the movable plate 5. The cable management mechanism includes a cylinder 6, a transmission source 7, a rotating base 8, at least two pneumatic grippers 9, a receiving plate 10, at least two combing grippers 11, and a cylinder 12.
[0026] A robotic arm 13 is installed on the top of the frame 1, and assembly components are installed on the frame 1 via the robotic arm 13;
[0027] In the automatic cable management process for the bottom of the car radar body 101, the lifting platform 2 is first activated. This causes the moving plate 5 to move. After the moving plate 5 moves the two pneumatic grippers 9 to the designated position, the pneumatic grippers 9 are activated to pick up the car radar body 101 from the storage tray 4. At this time, the transmission source 7 is activated. The function of the transmission source 7 is to drive the rotating base 8 to rotate or stop rotating. The transmission source 7 is a well-known and mature technology in the art, so it will not be described in detail in the embodiment. The transmission source 7 will drive the rotating base 8 to rotate. Under the action of the cable management mechanism, the change in direction of the rotating base 8 will cause the car radar body 101 on the pneumatic grippers 9 to be placed on the receiving plate 10. In addition, the combing grippers 11 will comb the cables at the bottom of the car radar body 101.
[0028] At this time, the cables at the bottom of the car radar body 101 are automatically sorted without manual intervention, which improves the automation level of the device, increases the working speed of the production line, reduces the workload of the staff, and reduces production costs by reducing manual intervention.
[0029] Cylinder 6 is fixedly connected to the side of the moving plate 5, the side of the transmission source 7 is fixedly connected to the output end of cylinder 6, and the rotating base 8 is located on the side of the transmission source 7 and is rotatably connected to the transmission source 7.
[0030] Two pneumatic grippers 9 are symmetrically distributed and are located at the bottom of the rotating base 8. The bottom of the cylinder 12 is fixedly connected to the top of the frame 1.
[0031] The side of the receiving plate 10 is fixedly connected to the side of the cylinder 12. The two combing claws 11 are symmetrically distributed. The combing claws 11 are located below the receiving plate 10. The side of the combing claws 11 is fixedly connected to the output end of the cylinder 12.
[0032] In the initial handling and cable arrangement of the car radar body 101, the lifting platform 2 is first activated. The lifting platform 2 drives the moving plate 5 to slide on the platform, adjusting the position of the pneumatic gripper 9. Once the moving plate 5 has moved the pneumatic gripper 9 to the appropriate position, the pneumatic gripper 9 is activated to pick up the car radar body 101 from the storage tray 4. After picking it up, the electric slide rail 3 is activated, moving the storage tray 4 to remove the vacated portion. The portion containing the car radar body 101 is then placed back at the bottom of the pneumatic gripper 9 for easy handling in the next operation. At this point, the lifting platform 2 is activated to move the moving plate 5 above the receiving plate 10, and the transmission source 7 is activated to adjust the position of the rotating base 8, causing the rotating base 8 to rotate on the transmission source 7. When the pneumatic gripper 9 reaches a position parallel to the receiving plate 10, the transmission source 7 is stopped, the cylinder 6 is started to move the pneumatic gripper 9 to directly above the receiving plate 10, the moving plate 5 is started to lower the position of the pneumatic gripper 9, so that the pneumatic gripper 9 contacts the receiving plate 10, the pneumatic gripper 9 is released, and the car radar body 101 is placed on the receiving plate 10. At this time, the combing gripper 11 is started to clamp the cable at the bottom of the car radar body 101, the cylinder 2 12 is started to drive the combing gripper 11 to move downward. At this time, the combing gripper 11 will clamp the cable at the bottom of the car radar body 101 and move downward. The car radar body 101 will be caught by the receiving plate 10 and will not move downward. At this time, the combing gripper 11 will comb the cable at the bottom of the car radar body 101.
[0033] At this time, the cables at the bottom of the car radar body 101 are automatically sorted out, eliminating the need for manual operation by staff, thus improving the automation level of the device and increasing the efficiency of the production line.
[0034] The assembly assembly includes several radar fixtures 102 set above the frame 1. A support base 14 is set above the frame 1. The top of the support base 14 is fixedly connected to the output end of the robotic arm 13, and a connecting plate 15 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the support base 14.
[0035] Two cylinders 16 are fixedly connected to opposite sides of the connecting plate 15. The two cylinders 16 are symmetrically distributed. At least two pneumatic grippers 17 are provided on the side of the connecting plate 15. The two pneumatic grippers 17 are symmetrically distributed. The top of the pneumatic grippers 17 is fixedly connected to the output end of the cylinders 16.
[0036] Two cylinders 18 are fixedly connected to opposite sides of the connecting plate 15. The two cylinders 18 are symmetrically distributed. At least two combing claws 19 are provided on the side of the connecting plate 15. The two combing claws 19 are symmetrically distributed. The top of the combing claws 19 is fixedly connected to the output end of the cylinders 18. The combing claws 19 are located on the side of the pneumatic claws 17.
[0037] When assembling the car radar body 101 onto the radar fixture 102, the robotic arm 13 is first activated. The robotic arm 13 moves the support base 14, causing the two pneumatic grippers 17 on the storage tray 4 to reach above the receiving plate 10. At this point, the cylinder 16 is activated, moving the pneumatic grippers 17 downwards to clamp the car radar body 101 from the receiving plate 10. After clamping, the combing gripper 19 is activated, holding the cable at the bottom of the car radar body 101. After holding it, the cylinder 18 is activated, moving the combing gripper 19 downwards. The car radar body 101 is then held in place by the pneumatic grippers 17 and will not move. The combing gripper 19, holding the cable at the bottom of the car radar body 101 and moving, straightens the cable. The machine is then started. The robotic arm 13 moves the support base 14 above the radar fixture 102. The robotic arm 13 is activated to rotate the support base 14, aligning one of the pneumatic grippers 17 with the radar fixture 102. At this time, the cylinder 16 at the top of the pneumatic gripper 17 is activated to move the pneumatic gripper 17 downward. Simultaneously, the combing gripper 19 is activated to release the cable at the bottom of the car radar body 101, and the cylinder 18 is activated to move the combing gripper 19 upward, preventing the combing gripper 19 from contacting the radar fixture 102 first. Under the push of the cylinder 16, the pneumatic gripper 17 will assemble the car radar body 101 onto the radar fixture 102. The pneumatic gripper 17 is released, the cylinder 16 is activated to retract the pneumatic gripper 17, and the robotic arm 13 is activated to rotate the support base 14, aligning the other pneumatic gripper 17 with the other radar fixture 102. The same operation can be repeated.
[0038] At this point, the vehicle radar body 101 was assembled onto the radar fixture 102. Before assembly, the cables were reorganized to prevent them from getting stuck outside the radar fixture 102, thus preventing the vehicle radar body 101 from being assembled onto the radar fixture 102. This improved the stability of the device and further reduced manual intervention, thereby improving work efficiency.
[0039] The installation method, connection method, or setting method disclosed in this embodiment are all common mechanical connections.
[0040] Any connection method that can achieve its beneficial effect can be implemented, so the specific structural composition and working principle will not be described in detail in this embodiment.
[0041] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
