Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automated assembly technology, specifically a housing clamping device for sensor assembly. Background Technology

[0002] A sensor is a detection device that can sense measured information and convert it into an electrical signal or other usable output signal. It is widely used in industries such as industry, medicine, and aerospace. It features miniaturization, digitalization, and intelligence. The sensor assembly housing is used to protect the internal components. During the assembly process, a sensor assembly housing clamping device is required. The sensor assembly housing clamping device uses a mechanical structure to achieve precise positioning and fixation of the sensor housing, avoiding positional displacement or damage during assembly.

[0003] To prevent the sensor housing from shifting during assembly and affecting the assembly process, a sensor housing clamping device for sensor assembly has been developed (see patent number: 202210325435.8). This device includes a conveyor belt, a base at the upper end of the conveyor belt, a sliding assembly at the upper end of the base, and a movable block slidably connected to the upper end of the base via the sliding assembly. Using this structure, the height of the clamping block can be adjusted via a control mechanism and a lifting assembly, and its position can be stabilized by a limiting mechanism. This allows it to accommodate sensor housings of different heights. A power mechanism provides power to the sliding assembly, causing the movable block to slide along the upper end of the base via the sliding assembly, thus clamping the sensor housing between the clamping blocks. Anti-slip pads further stabilize the sensor housing, preventing rigid contact between the sensor housing and the clamping blocks that could cause breakage, thereby achieving the purpose of fixing the sensor housing.

[0004] However, due to the small size of the sensor, the required housing area is also small. Therefore, if the clamping tool is large, it is easy to exert excessive pressure on the housing during the clamping process, causing damage to the housing and affecting the normal assembly operation. In addition, the existing clamping tool has a relatively complex structure, which increases its cost and reduces its utilization rate.

[0005] Therefore, a housing clamping device for sensor assembly is proposed to address the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a housing clamping device for sensor assembly in order to solve the problems of large size, inconvenience of operation and complex structure of clamping tools, which increase costs.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a sensor assembly housing clamping device, comprising a base plate, support rods provided on both sides of one top end of the base plate, and pressing rods provided on both sides of the other top end of the base plate, a fixing plate provided above the base plate, and a motor installed on one side below the fixing plate; The fixed plate has support rods on both sides of one bottom end, pressing members on both sides of the other bottom end, a boss on the top of the fixed plate, an L-shaped limiting member on one side of the other end of the boss, and a sensor housing body on the top of the boss. The motor output end is equipped with a toggle lever, and gears are provided on both sides of the toggle lever. A linkage frame is fitted on the outside of the gears, and a linkage rod is provided on the top of the linkage frame. A magnetic suction cup is provided on the top of the linkage rod. A movable hole extending to the other side is provided on one side of the linkage frame, and multiple sets of locking teeth are evenly arranged at both ends inside the movable hole.

[0008] As a further embodiment of this utility model: one end of the gear is evenly provided with multiple sets of actuating teeth that match the locking teeth, and the gear is engaged with the linkage frame through the mutual cooperation of the locking teeth and the actuating teeth.

[0009] As a further improvement of this utility model: each of the support rods is provided with a U-shaped frame at its bottom, and the U-shaped frame is rotatably connected to the support rod via a pin.

[0010] As a further improvement of this utility model: the bottom of each of the pressing members is provided with a gasket, and the pressing member is movable and in contact with the pressing rod through the gasket.

[0011] As a further embodiment of this utility model: both sides of the top of the boss are provided with movable holes extending to the bottom of the fixed plate, and the top of the movable holes is provided with storage slots. The linkage rod and the magnetic suction cup are both located inside the movable holes and storage slots and are movably connected to the boss and the fixed plate through the movable holes and storage slots.

[0012] As a further improvement of this utility model: an L-shaped mounting bracket is provided on one side of the bottom of the fixing plate, and the motor is located inside the L-shaped mounting bracket.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: 1. The transmission power is directly transmitted to the linkage frame through the actuating teeth, thereby generating an upward pushing force on the linkage frame. This causes the linkage frame to move upward along with the linkage rod and the magnetic suction cup, allowing the magnetic suction cup to adhere to the bottom of the sensor housing. This magnetic attraction force enables stable clamping of the sensor housing, resulting in a smaller contact area for the clamping tool and less pressure on the housing, thus avoiding damage to the housing. It also does not affect the normal assembly operation, while simplifying the structure, reducing costs, and increasing utilization. 2. By continuously rotating the output end of the motor, the gear and the actuating teeth on its end face rotate, causing the actuating teeth to mesh with the locking teeth at the other end of the linkage frame. This causes the linkage frame to be forced downward, directly carrying the linkage rod and magnetic suction cup downward, separating from the bottom of the sensor housing body and discontinuing the magnetic attraction operation. Then, the fixing plate is rotated forward with the pin as the base point, causing the sensor housing body located on the top of the fixing plate to slide along the inclined boss to the front of the bottom plate for easy collection.

The embodiments of this utility model will be described below based on its overall structure.

[0018] Please see Figures 1-4 In this embodiment of the present invention, a sensor assembly housing clamping device includes a base plate 1, with support rods 101 on both sides of one top end of the base plate 1, and pressing rods 102 on both sides of the other top end of the base plate 1. A fixing plate 2 is provided above the base plate 1, and a motor 3 is installed on one side below the fixing plate 2. Among them, support rods 201 are provided on both sides of one bottom end of the fixed plate 2, pressing parts 202 are provided on both sides of the other bottom end of the fixed plate 2, a boss 203 is provided on the top of the fixed plate 2, an L-shaped limiting part 204 is provided on one side of the other end of the top of the boss 203, and a sensor housing body 4 is provided on the top of the boss 203. The motor 3 has a toggle lever 301 at its output end. Gears 302 are provided on both sides of the toggle lever 301. A linkage frame 303 is sleeved on the outside of the gears 302. A linkage rod 304 is provided on the top of the linkage frame 303. A magnetic suction cup 305 is provided on the top of the linkage rod 304. A movable hole extending to the other side is provided on one side of the linkage frame 303. Multiple sets of locking teeth are evenly provided at both ends inside the movable hole.

[0019] In this embodiment, the magnetic suction cup 305 is composed of an iron core and a coil. It uses the magnetic field generated after being energized to attract the sensor housing body 4. When the power is turned off, the magnetic field disappears, so the clamping and releasing of the workpiece can be achieved by controlling the power on and off of the coil.

[0020] like Figures 1 to 4As shown, one end of gear 302 is evenly provided with multiple sets of actuating teeth that match the locking teeth. Gear 302 is meshed with linkage frame 303 through the mutual cooperation of locking teeth and actuating teeth.

[0021] In this embodiment, the number of actuating teeth occupies less than half of the periphery of gear 302, so that when the actuating teeth move to the other end of gear 302, they can better engage with the locking teeth at the other end of the linkage frame 303 without braking, thus ensuring the continuity of the movement guidance of linkage frame 303.

[0022] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, each support rod 201 has a U-shaped frame at its bottom, and the U-shaped frame is rotatably connected to the support rod 101 via a pin.

[0023] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, each of the pressing members 202 has a gasket at its bottom, and the pressing member 202 is movably connected to the pressing rod 102 through the gasket. The gasket increases the frictional resistance at the contact end, making it more stable after contact, and can also be separated by flipping.

[0024] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, both sides of the top of the boss 203 are provided with movable holes extending to the bottom of the fixed plate 2. The top of the movable holes is provided with storage slots. The linkage rod 304 and the magnetic suction cup 305 are both located inside the movable holes and storage slots and are movably connected to the boss 203 and the fixed plate 2 through the movable holes and storage slots. The storage slots provide sufficient space for the movement of the magnetic suction cup 305. When the magnetic suction cup 305 moves down along the storage slot, its surface can be directly separated from the bottom of the sensor housing body 4. Conversely, when the magnetic suction cup 305 moves up along the storage slot, it can contact the bottom of the sensor housing body 4. Then, the magnetic suction cup 305 is started to run and generate an adsorption force on the bottom of the sensor housing body 4.

[0025] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, an L-shaped mounting bracket is provided on one side of the bottom of the fixing plate 2, and the motor 3 is located inside the L-shaped mounting bracket.

[0026] Working principle: In use, the sensor housing body 4 is placed directly on the top of the boss 203, and one corner of the sensor housing body 4 is in direct contact with the L-shaped limiting member 204. Then, the output end of the motor 3 rotates under the action of electricity and carries the actuating rod 301 to rotate, while carrying the gear 302 outside it to rotate. Since one end of the gear 302 is evenly provided with multiple sets of actuating teeth, and the actuating teeth mesh with the locking teeth at one end of the linkage frame 303, the transmission power is directly transmitted to the linkage frame 303 through the actuating teeth, thereby generating an upward pushing force on the linkage frame 303. This causes the linkage frame 303 to carry the linkage rod 304 and the magnetic suction cup 305 to move upward, so that the bottom of the sensor housing body 4 can be attracted by the magnetic suction cup 305, thereby achieving stable clamping of the sensor housing body 4 by using magnetic attraction force. After the sensor housing body 4 is assembled, the output end of the motor 3 can be continuously rotated, and the gear 302 and the actuating teeth on its end face can be rotated, so that the actuating teeth can be engaged with the locking teeth at the other end of the linkage frame 303, thereby causing the linkage frame 303 to be moved downward under force, and directly carrying the linkage rod 304 and the magnetic suction cup 305 downward, and separating from the bottom of the sensor housing body 4 at the same time disengaging the magnetic attraction operation. Then, the fixing plate 2 is rotated forward with the pin as the base point, so that the sensor housing body 4 located on the top of the fixing plate 2 slides along the inclined boss 203 to the front of the bottom plate 1 for easy collection. Furthermore, when the fixed plate 2 is tilted, the pressing member 202 can be separated from the pressing rod 102, which facilitates the tilting operation of the fixed plate 2. When the fixed plate 2 is reset, the pressing member 202 can directly contact the top of the pressing rod 102, thereby effectively ensuring the stability of the top fixed plate 2.

[0027] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
