Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of wire harness processing, and in particular to a wire harness sleeve device and wire harness processing equipment based on sleeve morphology transformation. Background Technology

[0002] During the wire harness processing, it is necessary to fit numbered sleeves onto the ends of the wire harness after it has been cut to a fixed length.

[0003] The serial number on the sleeve needs to be marked with a marking device before sleeve operation.

[0004] In related technologies, in order to improve the accuracy of coding on the sleeve by the coding equipment, the sleeve is made into a flat tube shape.

[0005] However, in the current production process, after coding, the sleeve needs to be manually shaped from a flat tube to a round tube before it can be fitted into the end of the wire harness, resulting in low efficiency of wire harness sleeve installation. Utility Model Content

[0006] This invention aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. To this end, this invention proposes a wire harness sleeve device based on sleeve shape transformation, which can automatically shape a flat tube sleeve into a round tube shape before sleeved onto the end of the wire harness, thereby improving the efficiency of wire harness sleeve.

[0007] This utility model also proposes a wire harness processing equipment having the above-mentioned wire harness sleeve device based on sleeve morphology transformation.

[0008] A wire harness sleeve device based on sleeve morphology transformation according to a first aspect embodiment of the present invention includes:

[0009] The transfer mechanism is used to transfer the sleeve;

[0010] A shaping mechanism includes a shaping fixture having a guide hole, the guide hole including a tapered section whose width gradually decreases along the direction of sleeve movement, and a transfer mechanism driving a flat-tube-shaped sleeve through the guide hole so that the tapered section compresses the flat-tube-shaped sleeve into a round tube shape.

[0011] The wire harness sleeve device based on sleeve morphology transformation according to the embodiments of the present invention has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0012] 1. This utility model, by setting a gradient section in the guide hole, allows the flat tube-shaped sleeve to be continuously squeezed when it passes through the guide hole. By squeezing both sides of the sleeve, the two flat surfaces of the sleeve can be raised outward, thereby automatically shaping the flat tube-shaped sleeve into a round tube shape, eliminating the need for manual shaping of the sleeve and significantly improving the efficiency of wire harness sleeves.

[0013] 2. This utility model gradually reduces the width of the tapering section along the direction of sleeve movement, thereby causing the flat tube-shaped sleeve to gradually deform as it passes through the tapering section. This avoids excessive deformation speed or excessive deformation of the sleeve, which could lead to tearing or wrinkling during the shaping process, thus ensuring a high yield of sleeve shaping.

[0014] 3. This utility model achieves automated production of sleeve shaping by setting up a transfer device to drive sleeve shaping, thereby improving production efficiency.

[0015] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the guide hole further includes a feeding guide section, which is disposed at the input end of the gradient section. The cross-section of the feeding guide section is elliptical, and the feeding guide section is used to guide the feeding of the flat tube-shaped sleeve.

[0016] The advantages of this invention are: by setting a feeding guide section in the guide hole, the feeding guide section is located at the input end of the transition section. The cross-section of the feeding guide section is elliptical. The feeding guide section is used to guide the feeding of the flat tube-shaped sleeve. It can be understood that the elliptical feeding guide section matches the shape of the flat tube-shaped sleeve. By using the feeding guide section to guide the feeding of the flat tube-shaped sleeve, it prevents the sleeve from deviating or getting stuck when feeding into the guide hole, and ensures that the flat tube-shaped sleeve smoothly enters the transition section of the guide hole.

[0017] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the guide hole further includes a discharge guide section, which is disposed at the output end of the gradient section. The cross-section of the discharge guide section is circular, and the discharge guide section is used to guide the sleeve in the circular tube state to discharge material.

[0018] The advantages of this invention are: by setting a discharge guide section in the guide hole, the discharge guide section is located at the output end of the transition section. The cross-section of the discharge guide section is circular. The discharge guide section is used to guide the sleeve in the circular tube state for discharge. It can be understood that, on the one hand, the circular discharge guide section can maintain the circular tube state of the sleeve after shaping, prevent the sleeve from springing back and deforming, and ensure the stability of the sleeve's shape. On the other hand, the circular guide hole facilitates coaxial alignment with the end of the wire harness, improves the sleeve's positional accuracy, and avoids the sleeve and the end of the wire harness being misaligned.

[0019] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the upper and lower sides of the gradient section are used to support the outer wall of the sleeve, and the height of the gradient section gradually increases along the moving direction of the sleeve.

[0020] The advantages are: by using the upper and lower sides of the transition section to support the outer wall of the sleeve, and the height of the transition section gradually increases along the direction of sleeve movement, it can be understood that by using the design of the gradually increasing height of the transition section, vertical and horizontal support are applied simultaneously, so that the sleeve is evenly stressed, the deformation is natural, and the risk of sleeve wall folding is reduced.

[0021] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the shaping mechanism further includes a fixture positioning component, which is used to position and install the shaping fixture. The wire harness sleeve device further includes a fixture changing mechanism, which includes a fixture compartment and a fixture transfer component. The fixture compartment is used to store multiple shaping fixtures of different models, and the fixture transfer component is used to drive the shaping fixture to move back and forth between the fixture compartment and the fixture positioning component to switch between different models of the shaping fixture.

[0022] The advantages of this invention are: by setting a fixture positioning component in the shaping mechanism, which is used to position and install the shaping fixture, and setting a fixture changing mechanism in the wire harness sleeve device, the fixture changing mechanism includes a fixture compartment and a fixture transfer component. The fixture compartment is used to store multiple shaping fixtures of different models, and the fixture transfer component is used to drive the shaping fixtures to move back and forth between the fixture compartment and the fixture positioning component to switch between different models of shaping fixtures. It can be understood that the fixture compartment stores multiple models of fixtures, and the transfer component automatically switches them to adapt to the production of sleeves of different sizes. In addition, the fixture positioning component works with the changing module to complete the replacement of shaping fixtures without manual intervention, thereby improving the equipment's production changing efficiency.

[0023] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the wire harness sleeve device further includes a support mechanism for supporting the sleeve, and the support mechanism is disposed at the feed end of the shaping fixture;

[0024] And / or, the hosting mechanism is located at the discharge end of the shaping fixture.

[0025] The advantages of this invention are as follows: By setting up a support mechanism to support the sleeve, it is understood that since the sleeve has a certain length, it is prone to drooping and bending under its own weight in a natural state. By using the support mechanism to support the sleeve, the drooping and bending of the sleeve can be avoided during the transfer of the sleeve by the transfer mechanism, thus ensuring the transfer accuracy. By setting the support mechanism at the feed end of the forming fixture, it can ensure that the sleeve remains straight before entering the guide hole, so that the sleeve can accurately enter the guide hole. By setting the support mechanism at the discharge end of the forming fixture, it can ensure that the sleeve remains straight before being fitted into the wire harness, improving the alignment accuracy between the sleeve and the wire harness, so that the sleeve can be accurately fitted into the end of the wire harness.

[0026] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the hosting mechanism includes a left support member, a right support member, and a first driving module that drives the left support member and the right support member to move closer and further away from each other.

A limiting groove for supporting and limiting the sleeve is formed between the left half groove and the right half groove. It can be understood that by adjusting the distance between the left support member and the right support member using the first drive module, it can be compatible with sleeves of different diameters and enhance the versatility of the equipment. At the same time, the limiting groove formed by the combination of the left half groove and the right half groove constrains the radial displacement of the sleeve and can ensure the straightness of the sleeve transfer path.

[0028] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the left support member is provided with a clearance groove, which is used to avoid the right support member.

[0029] The advantages of this invention are: by providing an avoidance groove in the left support member to avoid the right support member, it can be understood that, on the one hand, the avoidance groove allows the left and right support members to fit tightly together to form a complete closed-loop limiting groove, avoiding support blind spots; on the other hand, there is no hard collision when the left and right support members are closed, preventing the left and right support members from scratching or crushing the surface of the sleeve.

[0030] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the wire harness sleeve device further includes a laser marking mechanism, which is disposed at the feeding end of the shaping fixture. The laser marking mechanism includes a CCD detection module and a laser module.

[0033] According to a second aspect of the present invention, the wire harness processing equipment includes a wire harness sleeve device based on sleeve morphology transformation according to a first aspect of the present invention.

[0034] The wire harness processing equipment according to the embodiments of this utility model has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0035] 1. This utility model, by setting a gradient section in the guide hole, allows the flat tube-shaped sleeve to be continuously squeezed when it passes through the guide hole. By squeezing both sides of the sleeve, the two flat surfaces of the sleeve can be raised outward, thereby automatically shaping the flat tube-shaped sleeve into a round tube shape, eliminating the need for manual shaping of the sleeve and significantly improving the efficiency of wire harness sleeves.

[0036] 2. This utility model gradually reduces the width of the tapering section along the direction of sleeve movement, thereby causing the flat tube-shaped sleeve to gradually deform as it passes through the tapering section.

[0056] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1 - Appendix Figure 11 This invention describes a wire harness sleeve device and wire harness processing equipment based on sleeve morphology transformation according to embodiments of the present invention.

[0057] This utility model aims to provide embodiments of wire harness sleeve devices and wire harness processing equipment based on sleeve morphology transformation.

[0058] In this embodiment, the wire harness processing equipment mainly includes a wire harness sleeve device based on sleeve morphology transformation.

[0059] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 The wire harness sleeve device based on sleeve shape transformation according to this utility model embodiment includes a transfer mechanism 100, a shaping mechanism 110, a wire harness feeding mechanism 150, a fixture changing mechanism (not shown in the figure), a hosting mechanism 190, and a laser marking mechanism (not shown in the figure).

[0060] For the transfer mechanism 100, the transfer mechanism 100 is used to transfer the sleeve.

[0061] This embodiment achieves automated production of the casing by setting up a transfer device to drive the casing shaping and casing movement, thereby improving production efficiency.

[0062] Specifically, the transfer mechanism 100 can be configured as a four-axis robot arm, which grips the transfer sleeve, thereby improving the operational flexibility of the transfer mechanism 100.

[0063] Furthermore, the transfer mechanism 100 may include two four-axis robotic arms, one for driving the flat tube-shaped sleeve through the shaping mechanism 110, and the other for driving the shaped sleeve and wire harness assembly.

[0064] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 , Figure 9 and Figure 10For the shaping mechanism 110, the shaping mechanism 110 includes a shaping fixture 120, the shaping fixture 120 has a guide hole 130, the guide hole 130 includes a gradient section 140, the width of the gradient section 140 gradually decreases along the tube moving direction, the transfer mechanism 100 drives the flat tube-shaped tube through the guide hole 130 so that the gradient section 140 squeezes the flat tube-shaped tube to transform it into a round tube shape.

[0065] Specifically, the guide hole 130 penetrates the shaping fixture 120.

[0066] In this embodiment, by setting a gradient section 140 in the guide hole 130, when the flat tube-shaped sleeve passes through the guide hole 130, the gradient section 140 can continuously squeeze the flat tube-shaped sleeve. By squeezing both sides of the sleeve, the two flat surfaces of the sleeve can bulge outward, thereby automatically shaping the flat tube-shaped sleeve into a round tube shape, eliminating the need for manual shaping of the sleeve and significantly improving the efficiency of wire harness sleeves.

[0067] In this embodiment, the width of the tapered section 140 gradually decreases along the direction of sleeve movement, thereby causing the flat sleeve to gradually deform as it passes through the tapered section. This avoids excessive deformation or excessive deformation of the sleeve, which could lead to tearing or wrinkling during the shaping process, thus ensuring a high yield of sleeve shaping.

[0068] In some specific embodiments, the guide hole 130 further includes a feed guide section 160, which is disposed at the input end of the transition section 140. The cross-section of the feed guide section 160 is elliptical, and the feed guide section 160 is used to guide the feeding of the flat tube-shaped sleeve.

[0069] It is understandable that the elliptical feed guide section 160 matches the shape of the flat tube sleeve. The feed guide section 160 guides the flat tube sleeve to feed, preventing the sleeve from deviating or getting stuck when feeding into the guide hole 130, and ensuring that the flat tube sleeve smoothly enters the transition section 140 of the guide hole 130.

[0070] In some specific embodiments, the guide hole 130 further includes a discharge guide section 170, which is disposed at the output end of the transition section 140. The cross-section of the discharge guide section 170 is circular, and the discharge guide section 170 is used to guide the sleeve in the circular tube state to discharge material.

[0071] Understandably, on the one hand, the circular discharge guide section 170 can maintain the round tube state after the sleeve is shaped, prevent the sleeve from springing back and deforming, and ensure the stability of the sleeve's front shape. On the other hand, the circular guide hole 130 facilitates coaxial alignment with the end of the wire harness, improves the sleeve's positional accuracy, and avoids the sleeve and the end of the wire harness being misaligned.

[0072] Reference Figure 11In some specific embodiments, the upper and lower sides of the gradient section 140 are used to support the outer wall of the sleeve, and the height of the gradient section 140 gradually increases along the moving direction of the sleeve.

[0073] Understandably, by utilizing the design of the gradually increasing height of the 140mm transition section, and simultaneously applying vertical and horizontal support, the casing is subjected to uniform stress, resulting in natural deformation and reducing the risk of casing wall folding.

[0074] In some specific embodiments, the shaping mechanism 110 further includes a fixture positioning component 180, which is used to position and install the shaping fixture 120. The wire harness sleeve device also includes a fixture changing mechanism, which includes a fixture compartment and a fixture transfer component. The fixture compartment is used to store multiple shaping fixtures 120 of different models, and the fixture transfer component is used to drive the shaping fixture 120 to move back and forth between the fixture compartment and the fixture positioning component 180 to switch between different models of shaping fixtures 120.

[0075] Understandably, the jig storage compartment stores various jig models, which can be automatically switched through the transfer component to adapt to the production of sleeves of different sizes. In addition, the jig positioning component 180 works with the changeover module to complete the replacement of the shaping jig 120 without manual intervention, thereby improving the equipment's production changeover efficiency.

[0076] Specifically, the jig positioning component 180 can be configured as a pneumatic finger, which clamps and fixes the shaping jig 120, thereby facilitating the removal and placement of the shaping jig 120.

[0077] In some specific embodiments, the jig transfer assembly can be configured as a four-axis robot that grips the moving shaping jig 120, thereby making the jig transfer assembly more flexible in its movement.

[0078] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 4 For the support mechanism 190, the support mechanism 190 is used to support the sleeve, and the support mechanism 190 is set at the feed end of the shaping fixture 120;

[0079] And / or, the hosting institution 190 is located at the discharge end of the shaping fixture 120.

[0080] In this embodiment, a support mechanism 190 is provided to support the sleeve. It is understood that, since the sleeve has a certain length, it is prone to drooping and bending under its own weight in a natural state. Using the support mechanism 190 to support the sleeve can prevent it from drooping and bending during the transfer process by the transfer mechanism 100, ensuring transfer accuracy. By placing the support mechanism 190 at the feed end of the shaping fixture 120, it ensures that the sleeve remains straight before entering the guide hole 130, allowing the sleeve to accurately enter the guide hole 130. By placing the support mechanism 190 at the discharge end of the shaping fixture 120, it ensures that the sleeve remains straight before being fitted into the wire harness, improving the alignment accuracy between the sleeve and the wire harness, allowing the sleeve to be accurately fitted into the end of the wire harness.

[0081] Reference Figure 3 Specifically, the hosting mechanism 190 includes a left support member 200, a right support member 210, and a first drive module 220 that drives the left support member 200 and the right support member 210 to move closer and further apart from each other. The left support member 200 is provided with a left half-groove 230, and the right support member 210 is provided with a right half-groove 240. A limiting groove for limiting the support of the sleeve is formed between the left half-groove 230 and the right half-groove 240.

[0082] It is understandable that by using the first drive module 220 to adjust the distance between the left support member 200 and the right support member 210, it is possible to be compatible with sleeves of different diameters and enhance the versatility of the equipment. At the same time, the limiting groove formed by the combination of the left half groove 230 and the right half groove 240 constrains the radial displacement of the sleeve and can ensure the straightness of the sleeve conveying path.

[0083] Furthermore, both the left half-groove 230 and the right half-groove 240 are configured as V-grooves.

[0084] Furthermore, the left support member 200 is provided with a clearance groove 250, which is used to avoid the right support member 210.

[0085] Understandably, on the one hand, the clearance groove 250 allows the left support 200 and the right support 210 to fit tightly together, forming a complete closed-loop limiting groove to avoid support blind spots. On the other hand, there is no hard collision when the left support 200 and the right support 210 are closed, preventing the left support 200 and the right support 210 from scratching or crushing the surface of the sleeve.

[0086] In some specific embodiments, the left support member 200 and the right support member 210 can be slidably mounted on the frame. The first drive module 220 includes a motor and a screw. The motor is fixed on the frame and drives the screw to rotate. The screw includes a left-handed section and a right-handed section with opposite directions of rotation. The left-handed section is threadedly connected to the left support member 200, and the right-handed section is threadedly connected to the right support member 210. The rotation of the screw causes the left support member 200 and the right support member 210 to move closer to each other and further away from each other.

[0087] In other embodiments, the first drive module 220 may also be configured as a conventional linear drive structure.

[0088] The wire harness feeding mechanism 150 is located at the discharge end of the guide hole 130. The wire harness feeding mechanism 150 is used to transport the wire harness to the sleeve station. The transfer mechanism 100 connects the sleeve shaped by the shaping mechanism 110 to the wire harness at the sleeve station.

[0089] Specifically, the wire harness feeding mechanism 150 includes a wire harness guide seat and a first conveying wheel. The wire harness guide seat has a limiting hole for accommodating the wire harness to pass through. The limiting hole is used to limit and guide the wire harness. The first conveying wheel is used to support and convey the wire harness.

[0090] Furthermore, the first conveyor wheel is rotatably mounted on the frame, and the frame is also equipped with a first motor that drives the first conveyor wheel to rotate.

[0091] Furthermore, the wire harness feeding mechanism 150 may also include an upper support wheel and a lower support wheel, which are rotatably mounted on the frame and support the wire harness above and below respectively.

[0092] Furthermore, the frame can include a frame body and a lifting seat that slides vertically on the frame body. The upper support wheel is rotatably mounted on the lifting seat, and the lower support wheel is rotatably mounted on the frame body. The lifting seat moves up and down to drive the upper support wheel to move up and down, thereby adjusting the vertical distance between the upper and lower support wheels to accommodate wire harnesses of different sizes and specifications.

[0093] The laser marking mechanism is located at the feeding end of the forming fixture 120. The laser marking mechanism includes a CCD detection module and a laser module. The CCD detection module is used to detect and obtain the sleeve size and the sleeve marking position, and the laser module is used to laser mark the sleeve.

[0094] Understandably, the CCD inspection module automatically identifies the sleeve size and marking position, ensuring clear markings and consistent placement, thus reducing manual adjustments.

[0095] Specifically, the laser module includes a displacement drive and a laser marking device. The displacement drive is used to adjust the position of the laser marking device. The CCD detection module is electrically connected to the displacement drive, and the displacement drive adjusts the position of the laser marking device according to the detection result of the CCD detection module.
