Description

Technical Field

[0002] With the continuous advancement of electronic component manufacturing processes, connectors, as key components for circuit connections, face increasingly stringent requirements for processing precision. In connector production, precise cutting of the copper sheet edges is a crucial step in ensuring product performance. Traditional connector edge-cutting processes suffer from the following technical drawbacks: First, manual edge-cutting is inefficient and produces inconsistent quality, making it difficult to meet the demands of mass production; second, existing edge-cutting equipment generally lacks an effective waste collection system, leading to a cluttered production site and impacting operational safety; third, traditional stamping edge-cutting devices lack sufficient positioning accuracy, easily causing product dimensional deviations; furthermore, fixed edge-cutting mechanisms are ill-suited to the processing needs of connectors of different specifications, resulting in low equipment utilization.

[0003] As precision components made of copper and plastic composites, connectors require special attention to the positioning accuracy and cutting quality of the copper sheets during the trimming process. Traditional trimming equipment often neglects waste collection, leading to copper shavings scattering, which affects the working environment and wastes materials. Furthermore, the lack of precise limiting devices causes connectors to easily shift during trimming, affecting trimming accuracy. These technical deficiencies severely restrict the automation level and product yield of connector production lines. Utility Model Content

[0013] This application provides a collection device for cutting edges of connectors, which solves the technical problems of low efficiency and unstable quality of manual cutting methods in the prior art, making it difficult to meet the needs of mass production. At the same time, cutting equipment often ignores the problem of waste collection, resulting in copper shavings being scattered, which not only affects the working environment but also causes material waste.

[0014] The technical solution in this application is to solve the above problems, and the overall approach is as follows: To better understand the above technical solutions, the following will provide a detailed explanation of the technical solutions in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0015] A collection device for cutting the edge of a connector, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, it includes a base plate 1, a conveying track 2 for conveying connectors, a cutting assembly 3 for cutting excess copper sheets in connectors, a support base 4 mounted on the top of the base plate 1, and a collection trough 5 for collecting excess copper sheets; the conveying track 2 is located on the top of the base plate 1 and is placed close to the support base 4; the cutting assembly 3 is mounted on the top of the support base 4; the collection trough 5 is mounted on the bottom of the support base 4; the working end of the cutting assembly 3 is located directly above the collection trough 5.

[0016] The cutting assembly 3 includes a limiting block 31 for limiting excess copper sheets in the connector, a stamping block 32 for stamping and cutting excess copper sheets in the connector, a connecting block 33 for driving the stamping block 32 to rise and fall, a driving device 34 installed on the top of the support base 4, and limiting rods 35 set at both ends of the connecting block 33. The limiting block 31 is installed at the top opening of the collection tank 5, and one side of the limiting block 31 is close to the top of the conveying track 2. A limiting groove adapted to the thickness of the excess copper sheet in the connector is opened on one side of the bottom end of the limiting block 31. A rectangular opening adapted to the stamping block 32 is opened in the middle of the limiting block 31. Limiting holes adapted to the limiting rods 35 are opened at both ends of the limiting block 31. The two sets of limiting rods 35 are slidably connected in the corresponding limiting holes. The stamping block 32 is installed at the bottom end of the connecting block 33. The connecting block 33 is set on the driving end of the driving device 34.

[0017] The drive unit 34 is a hydraulic cylinder.

[0018] The conveyor track 2 is fixedly installed on the top of the base plate 1 and is used to convey the connectors to be processed. The cutting assembly 3 includes a limiting block 31, a stamping block 32, a connecting block 33, a drive device 34 (hydraulic cylinder), and a limiting rod 35, which achieves precise edge cutting through hydraulic drive. The support base 4 provides stable support for the entire cutting system, and the collection groove 5 is located at the bottom of the support base 4 to directly collect the waste generated by edge cutting. The special structural design of the limiting block 31 ensures accurate positioning of the connectors, and the rectangular opening of the stamping block 32 precisely matches the limiting block 31 to achieve clean and neat removal of the copper sheet.

[0019] Operating procedures During the equipment preparation stage, the connection status of each component of the conveyor track 2 and the cutting assembly 3 needs to be checked, the pressure parameters of the hydraulic cylinder drive device 34 need to be confirmed to be set correctly, and the position of the limit block 31 needs to be adjusted according to the product specifications. At the same time, the matching stamping block 32 needs to be installed and its sharpness checked.

The connectors are sent to the cutting station through the conveyor track 2, so that the excess copper part of the connector is embedded in the limiting groove of the limit block 31. During the edge collection stage, the hydraulic cylinder drive device 34 pushes the connectors to collect the cut edges. Block 33 descends, driving the stamping block 32 through the rectangular opening of the limiting block 31 to complete the edge cutting. The cut copper scrap falls directly into the collection tank 5. Then, the drive device 34 returns to its original position to prepare for the next edge cutting. During the material inspection stage, the edge-cut connector continues to move along the conveyor track 2. The first product undergoes an edge cutting quality inspection. After confirmation of qualification, it enters the mass production mode. During the maintenance and cleaning stage, the scrap in the collection tank 5 needs to be cleaned regularly, the wear of the limiting block 31 and the stamping block 32 needs to be checked, and the hydraulic system needs to be maintained, including checking the oil circuit sealing. The entire operation process is reasonably designed, with each stage closely connected to ensure the efficient and stable operation of the equipment.

Hydraulic cylinder drive device 34 provides smooth power output, ensuring precise movement of stamping block 32 and consistent cutting quality. The integrated design of collection trough 5, located directly below the cutting station, enables immediate waste collection, effectively improving the working environment. The rigid structure of support base 4 provides a stable mounting foundation for cutting assembly 3, absorbing cutting impact and extending equipment life. The collaborative design of conveyor track 2 and cutting assembly 3 enables automated continuous production, improving efficiency and reducing labor intensity. The modular design allows for quick replacement of key components such as limit block 31 and stamping block 32, adapting to different processing requirements.
