[0029] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0030] like Figures 1-8As shown, this utility model proposes an automatic assembly device for rubber stoppers and tubing, including a feeding section 100, an assembly section 200, a transfer section 300, and a pushing section 400. The feeding section 100 is used to transport rubber stoppers, the assembly section 200 is used to place tubing, the transfer section 300 is used to receive rubber stoppers from the feeding section 100 and transfer the rubber stoppers to the assembly section 200, and the pushing section 400 is used to assemble the rubber stoppers placed in the assembly section 200 into the tubing.
[0031] In this specific embodiment, multiple rubber stoppers are placed in the feeding section 100 and rubber tubes are placed in the assembly section 200 beforehand. The feeding section 100 conveys the rubber stoppers one by one, and the transfer section 300 transfers the rubber stoppers from the feeding section 100 to the assembly section 200. The rubber stoppers placed in the assembly section 200 are located within the working area of the pusher section 400 and are also located in the path for assembly with the rubber tube. At this time, under the push of the pusher section 400, the rubber stoppers are assembled into the rubber tubes, realizing the automated feeding, conveying and automatic assembly of the rubber stoppers with the rubber tubes. The whole process is realized by automated equipment, reducing manual intervention and improving the efficiency of assembly production.
[0032] In one embodiment of this application, the feeding unit 100 includes a feeding rail 101, a vibrating plate 102, and a pusher 103. The vibrating plate 102 is disposed at the first end of the feeding rail 101 and is used to load a plurality of rubber plugs and to feed each rubber plug into the feeding rail 101 one by one. The pusher 103 is disposed at the second end of the feeding rail 101 and is used to push the rubber plugs on the feeding rail 101 one by one.
[0033] It should be noted that the structure of the vibratory feeder 102 is the same as that commonly used in the market for conveying multiple IC devices one by one through vibration, so it will not be described in detail here. At the end of the feed rail 101, that is, the second end, a pusher 103 is connected. The function of the pusher 103 is to cut off the rubber plugs in the feed rail 101 one by one, so that the transfer unit 300 can pick up the rubber plugs one by one. See the appendix. Figure 2 The pusher 103 adopts a telescopic cylinder structure, and a rod for intercepting rubber plugs is provided at the output end of the telescopic cylinder structure. The rod is provided with a slot for placing rubber plugs. In specific implementation, the slot on the rod is directly opposite the second end of the conveying rail 101, so that the rubber plugs in the conveying rail 101 can directly enter the slot. It should be noted that the slot can only receive one rubber plug, and other excess rubber plugs are still on the conveying rail 101. The conveying rail 101 is a slender track, and its width is sufficient to accommodate one rubber plug. That is, multiple rubber plugs are arranged in a row in the conveying rail 101. After the pusher 103 performs the push, the rod is moved away from the second end of the conveying rail 101 and placed in the working area of the transfer unit 300. The transfer unit 300 can then directly obtain rubber plugs from the slot.
[0034] In one embodiment of this application, the transfer unit 300 includes a multi-axis drive module 301 and a gripper 302. The gripper 302 is drivenly connected to the multi-axis drive module 301 and is used to grip the rubber plug on the pusher 103. Under the drive of the multi-axis drive module 301, the gripper 302 transfers the rubber plug to the assembly unit 200.
[0035] The multi-axis drive module 301 includes an X-axis drive unit 3011, a Z-axis drive unit 3012, and an R-axis drive unit 3013. The Z-axis drive unit 3012 is drivenly connected to the X-axis drive unit 3011, the R-axis drive unit 3013 is drivenly connected to the Z-axis drive unit 3012, and the gripper 302 is drivenly connected to the R-axis drive unit 3013. Under the combined drive of the X-axis drive unit 3011 and the Z-axis drive unit 3012, the gripper 302 moves freely in the space of the X-axis and Z-axis and rotates under the drive of the R-axis drive unit 3013.
[0036] It should be noted that, since the drive structures used in this embodiment are all cylinder-driven, to ensure the consistency of the drive structures and facilitate subsequent maintenance, the X-axis drive unit 3011, Z-axis drive unit 3012, R-axis drive unit 3013, and gripper 302 all adopt cylinder transmission. The gripper 302 is driven by a cylinder structure to move its two claw structures at the output end closer or further apart, thereby realizing the functions of clamping and releasing materials. Of course, these drive units can also adopt a motor-driven structure. Specifically, since the loading part 100 and the assembly part 200 are respectively located in the X-axis drive unit 3011, Z-axis drive unit 3012, R-axis drive unit 3013, and gripper 302, ... The X-axis drive unit 3011 drives the two ends of the path, so the gripper 302 is moved to the loading part 100 by the drive of the X-axis drive unit 3011. Under the adjustment and drive of the Z-axis drive unit 3012 and the R-axis drive unit 3013, the gripper 302 approaches the slot on the pusher 103 and picks up the rubber plug. After completing the rubber plug acquisition action, under the joint drive of the X-axis drive unit 3011, the Z-axis drive unit 3012 and the R-axis drive unit 3013, the gripper 302 is moved to the assembly part 200 and the rubber plug is placed on the assembly part 200, completing the rubber plug transfer action.
[0037] In one embodiment of this application, the assembly unit 200 includes a frame 201, a mounting base 202, and a first fastener 203. The mounting base 202 is mounted on the frame 201 and is used to place the hose. The first fastener 203 is mounted on the frame 201 and is used to fix the hose to the mounting base 202.
[0038] The pusher section 400 includes a first pusher 401 and a second pusher 402. The first pusher 401 is mounted on the frame 201. A shelf 4011 is provided at the end of the first pusher 401. The shelf 4011 is used to place the rubber stopper. Under the drive of the first pusher 401, the rubber stopper placed on the shelf 4011 moves closer to or away from the rubber tube. The second pusher 402 is mounted on the frame 201 and is used to assemble the rubber stopper into the rubber tube when the rubber stopper is close to the rubber tube.
[0039] The assembly unit 200 also includes a second retainer 204 and two limiting plates 205 mounted on the frame 201. The two limiting plates 205 are symmetrically arranged and a push channel is formed between the two limiting plates 205. The push channel is the push path of the rubber plug, and the second retainer 204 is used to restrict the rubber plug within the push channel.
[0040] In a specific embodiment, the rubber stopper is transferred to the assembly section 200 and placed on the platform 4011 on the first pusher 401. This position is directly opposite the opening of the rubber tube, and is restricted on both sides by two limiting plates 205 to prevent the rubber stopper from deviating from the assembly path when it is pushed to assemble with the rubber tube. To ensure the normal operation of the assembly, the rubber tube is fixed by the first retainer 203 to prevent the rubber tube from shifting during assembly. The first retainer 203 includes two telescopic cylinder structures. One is mounted above the mounting base 202 to apply downward pressure to the rubber tube and press it onto the mounting base 202. The other is mounted at the end of the mounting base 202, directly opposite the end of the rubber tube, and applies pressure to the end of the rubber tube. Through the setting of the two telescopic cylinder structures, the rubber tube is securely fixed to the mounting base 202.
[0041] Similarly, the pushing path of the rubber stopper also needs to be restricted to prevent the rubber stopper from deviating from the original path during pushing and assembly, which would affect the assembly work. The two limiting plates 205 act as the two side plates of the pushing channel to limit the width of the pushing channel, so that the pushing channel can only transport one rubber stopper, thus preventing the rubber stopper from deviating to the left or right. The second fixing device 204 is mounted above the pushing channel and adopts the same structure as the telescopic cylinder structure in the first fixing device 204. When the rubber stopper is placed in the pushing channel, the telescopic cylinder structure is activated and pressed down to close the space above the pushing channel and fix the rubber stopper on the platform 4011, preventing the rubber stopper from deviating. At the same time, it also ensures the normal pushing work of the first pusher 401 and the second pusher 402 on the rubber stopper.
[0042] It should be noted that the above descriptions are one or more embodiments provided in conjunction with specific content, and do not imply that the specific implementation of this utility model is limited to these descriptions. Any methods or structures that are similar to or identical to those of this utility model, or any technical deductions or substitutions made based on the concept of this utility model, should be considered within the scope of protection of this utility model.
