Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of plug fuse installation technology, specifically a plug fuse installation machine. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous development of electrical equipment, plug fuses, as a key safety component in electrical equipment, are mainly used to protect circuits from overloads, short circuits, and other faults, ensuring that the equipment automatically cuts off power in the event of an electrical fault, preventing equipment damage or fire accidents. However, the installation process of plug fuses has traditionally relied on manual operation, which is inefficient and prone to problems such as insecure installation and poor contact, thus affecting the safety performance of electrical equipment.

[0003] Most existing plug fuse installation methods are manual or semi-automated. Manual installation is tedious, time-consuming, and prone to errors due to human negligence. Especially on production lines requiring a large number of plug fuses, manual operation not only consumes significant manpower but also reduces overall production efficiency. Furthermore, the difficulty in controlling the precision and consistency of manual operation leads to inconsistent installation quality, further impacting product quality and safety.

[0004] Therefore, based on the above-mentioned technical problems, it is necessary for those skilled in the art to develop a plug and fuse installation machine. Utility Model Content

[0009] The installation mechanism includes an installation transverse module, an installation push cylinder, a lifting cylinder, an installation gripper, a conveyor, and a plug mold base. The installation gripper is connected to the installation push cylinder via the lifting cylinder, and the installation push cylinder is fixed to the installation transverse module.

[0010] The detection unit, including a visual detector and a DC low-resistance tester, is located above and at the end of the conveyor;

[0011] The material discharge mechanism, including a material discharge channel adjusting cylinder and a material discharge channel, is located at the output end of the conveyor.

[0012] The feeding channel extends to the bottom of the material handling gripper cylinder, and the plug mold base is fixed on the conveyor and located below the mounting gripper.

[0013] As a preferred technical solution, the feeding channel is a downwardly inclined slide, and a pushing cylinder is provided at its end to push the plug safety to the material picking station.

[0014] As a preferred technical solution, the material handling transverse module drives the material handling gripper cylinder to reciprocate between the end of the feeding channel and the plug mold base.

[0015] As a preferred technical solution, the installation transverse module drives the installation push cylinder and the lifting cylinder to move horizontally, so that the installation gripper is aligned with the plug mold base.

[0016] As a preferred technical solution, the visual detector is located above the mating position between the mounting gripper and the plug mold base, and is used to detect the installation angle of the plug fuse.

[0017] As a preferred technical solution, the DC low resistance tester is located at the end of the conveyor and is used to test the continuity performance of the plug fuse after installation.

[0018] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0019] This utility model relates to a plug fuse installation machine. The machine comprises a feeding mechanism, an installation mechanism, a detection unit, and a discharge mechanism that work together to automate the feeding, installation, detection, and discharge of plug fuses, significantly improving installation efficiency and quality.

The installation mechanism then uses a lifting cylinder and an installation pushing cylinder to press the plug fuse onto the mold base, completing the installation. Simultaneously, the detection unit checks the installation angle and conductivity of the plug fuse to ensure installation quality. The discharge mechanism removes installed or defective plug fuses for subsequent processing. The entire process is highly automated, reducing manual intervention and improving production efficiency and product quality. Attached Figure Description

[0024] The features and exemplary embodiments of various aspects of this utility model will now be described in detail. To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the following description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, will provide a further detailed description. For those skilled in the art, this utility model can be implemented without some of these specific details. The following description of the embodiments is merely intended to provide a better understanding of this utility model by illustrating examples.

[0025] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, this utility model provides a plug and fuse installation machine technical solution: including a base 1, which serves as the basic support structure for the entire equipment, ensuring the stable operation of the equipment.

[0026] The feeding mechanism includes a vibratory feeder 21, a feeding channel 22 connected to the vibratory feeder 21, a pushing cylinder 23, a picking and traversing module 24, and a picking gripper cylinder 25. The vibratory feeder 21 is used to evenly arrange and convey the plug fuses into the feeding channel 22. The pushing cylinder 23 is located at the end of the feeding channel 22 and is used to push the plug fuses to the picking station. The picking and traversing module 24 drives the picking gripper cylinder 25 to reciprocate between the end of the feeding channel and the plug mold base 36 to pick up the plug fuses.

[0027] The installation mechanism includes an installation transverse module 31, an installation push cylinder 32, a lifting cylinder 33, an installation gripper 34, a conveyor 35, and a plug mold base 36. The installation gripper 34 is connected to the installation push cylinder 32 via the lifting cylinder 33, and the installation push cylinder 32 is fixed to the installation transverse module 31. The installation transverse module 31 drives the installation push cylinder 32 and the lifting cylinder 33 to move horizontally, aligning the installation gripper 34 with the plug mold base 36. The lifting cylinder 33 controls the up-and-down movement of the installation gripper 34 to achieve precise installation of the plug safety device.

[0028] The detection unit includes a vision detector 37 and a DC low-resistance tester 38, located above and at the end of the conveyor 35. The vision detector 37 is positioned above the mating point between the mounting gripper 34 and the plug mold base 36, and is used to detect the installation angle of the plug fuse. The DC low-resistance tester 38 is located at the end of the conveyor 35 and is used to test the conductivity of the plug fuse after installation.

[0029] The discharge mechanism includes a discharge channel adjusting cylinder 41 and a discharge channel 42, located at the output end of the conveyor 35. The discharge channel adjusting cylinder 41 is used to adjust the position of the discharge channel 42 to facilitate the discharge of qualified or unqualified plug fuses.

[0030] In actual operation, the plug fuses are first initially sorted by the vibratory feeder 21, and then conveyed to the picking station through the feeding channel 22. Driven by the picking transverse module 24, the picking gripper cylinder 25 picks up the plug fuses and moves them above the plug mold base 36. Subsequently, the installation transverse module 31 drives the installation push cylinder 32 and the lifting cylinder 33 to align the installation gripper 34 with the plug mold base 36 and press the plug fuses onto it. After installation, the vision detector 37 checks the installation angle of the plug fuses, and the DC low resistance tester 38 checks the conductivity of the plug fuses to ensure installation quality. Qualified plug fuses are conveyed to the next process via the conveyor 35, while unqualified plug fuses are discharged through the discharge channel 42 for further processing.

[0031] Through the above-described embodiments, the plug fuse installation machine of this utility model realizes the automated installation of plug fuses, improves installation efficiency and quality, reduces manual intervention, lowers production costs, and ensures the safety performance of electrical equipment.
