Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to an assembly device for silver wire and sleeve, belonging to the field of automation technology. Background Technology

[0002] In the fields of electronic components, precision medical devices (such as electrical connectors, micro-sensors, implantable electrodes, etc.), and special light source manufacturing, it is often necessary to precisely thread extremely fine silver wires (or other precious metal wires) into micro-tubes and reliably fix them in place. This assembly of the silver wire and the tube is a core and critical process, and its quality directly affects the conductivity, mechanical strength, and long-term reliability of the final product.

[0003] Traditional assembly methods primarily rely on manual operation or simple semi-automatic equipment. Manual assembly is not only extremely inefficient, but also prone to problems such as wire bending, scratches, inconsistent insertion depth, incomplete cleaning of the sleeve hole, or inaccurate wire insertion into the sleeve center due to the thin and fragile silver wire and the small diameter of the sleeve hole (potentially containing processing residues or burrs). This results in low product yield, poor consistency, and high production costs. While existing semi-automatic equipment improves efficiency to some extent, it generally suffers from the following significant drawbacks:

[0004] 1. Process separation, efficiency bottleneck: Key processes such as cleaning the sleeve hole (hole cleaning), silver wire feeding and insertion, pressing and fixing, quality inspection and unloading are usually performed on independent equipment or workstations. Workpieces need to be frequently transferred and repeatedly positioned between different equipment, which not only increases the production cycle time, but also reduces assembly accuracy due to the accumulation of errors from multiple positioning.

[0005] 2. Incomplete or inefficient hole cleaning process: Tiny sleeve holes are easily clogged by machining debris, dust, or oil, which is one of the main reasons for silver wire insertion failure. Existing equipment often lacks efficient and automated hole cleaning functions, or the hole cleaning effect is poor, becoming a bottleneck for improving yield.

[0006] 3. Insufficient precision and protection in silver wire insertion: Traditional methods lack effective guidance and protection mechanisms when inserting silver wire into tiny sleeve holes. The silver wire is prone to deflection, bending, or even breakage during insertion, especially near the hole opening where there is a lack of stable support, leading to insertion failure or damage to the wire surface and affecting electrical performance.

[0007] 4. Low level of automation and integration: The gripping and handling mechanisms of each process are often designed independently, lacking unified and coordinated control and compatibility. The equipment occupies a large area, the system is complex, maintenance is difficult, and it is difficult to achieve true high-efficiency full-process automation.

[0008] 5. Delayed quality control: Inspection is usually carried out offline after assembly, which makes it impossible to remove defective products in real time, resulting in subsequent rework or material waste and increased costs.

[0009] In view of this, a new assembly device for silver wire and sleeve has indeed been proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

The following examples are used to illustrate this utility model, but are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model.

[0031] Please see Figures 1 to 7 As shown, this utility model discloses an assembly device 100 for silver wire and sleeve 20. The assembly device 100 includes a turntable 10 and a support position 30 disposed on the turntable 10 for supporting the sleeve 20. The outer ring of the turntable 10 is provided with a hole cleaning module 1, an assembly module 2, a pressing module 3, and a detection and unloading module 4. The turntable 10 is configured to allow the support position 30 to be sequentially aligned with the hole cleaning module 1, the assembly module 2, the pressing module 3, and the detection and unloading module 4 during rotation. Each side of the hole cleaning module 1, the assembly module 2, the pressing module 3, and the detection and unloading module 4 is provided with a clamping module 40 for clamping the sleeve 20 and moving it to the corresponding module for processing. The clamping module 40 is configured to clamp the sleeve 20 on the support position 30 and move it to the hole cleaning module 1, the assembly module 2, the pressing module 3, and the detection and unloading module 4 for processing, and then return it to the support position 30 after processing.

[0032] The hole cleaning module 1 includes a carrier 11 and two hole cleaning devices 12 disposed opposite to each other on the carrier 11. The hole cleaning devices 12 are movably connected to the carrier 11. The sleeve 20 is configured to move with the clamping module 40 between the two hole cleaning devices 12. The two hole cleaning devices 12 can move relative to the carrier 11 toward or away from the sleeve 20 to penetrate both ends of the sleeve 20 to clean the interior of the sleeve 20.

[0033] The cleaning module 1 further includes an air blowing assembly (not shown), and the clamping module 40 has a clamping part for clamping the sleeve 20. The clamping part is configured to rotatably rotate the clamped sleeve 20 to face the air blowing assembly. Preferably, the rotation angle is 90 degrees.

[0034] The assembly module 2 includes a silver wire feeding component 21 and an assembly component 22 for assembling the silver wire and the sleeve 20. The assembly component 22 is provided with a perforation 220. At least one end of the sleeve 20 is located in the perforation 220. The silver wire passes through the sleeve 20 from the side of the perforation 220 opposite to the sleeve 20.

[0035] The assembly component 22 includes an assembly part 221 and a pushing part 222 that can move relative to the assembly part 221. The perforation 220 is provided on the assembly part 221. The silver wire feeding component 21 is configured to align the silver wire with the perforation 220 on the assembly part 221 and insert it into the perforation 221 under the pushing of the pushing part 222.

[0036] The clamping module 40 has two directions of movement, which are perpendicular to each other. In the first direction of movement parallel to the horizontal plane, the assembly component 22 further includes a stop portion 223 disposed on the side of the assembly part 221 opposite to the pushing part 222. The pushing part 222, the assembly part 221, and the stop portion 223 are arranged sequentially. The sleeve 20 is configured to move along the first direction of movement with the clamping module 40 until it abuts against the stop portion 223. The stop portion 223 has a baffle (not shown).

[0037] In use, the clamping module 40 first moves the sleeve 20 along the first movement direction to between the assembly part 221 and the stop part 223. Then, along the second movement direction, one end of the sleeve 20 is aligned with the through hole 220. Next, along the first movement direction, one end of the sleeve 20 is inserted into the through hole 220. At this time, the silver wire feeding assembly 21 moves the silver wire between the assembly part 221 and the pushing part 222, aligning it with the through hole 220. Then, the pushing part 222 pushes the silver wire into the through hole 220, allowing it to penetrate the sleeve 20 and exit from the other end. Throughout this process, the clamping module 40 holds the sleeve 20. Afterward, the clamping module 40 moves the assembly of the sleeve 20 and the silver wire until it abuts against the baffle of the stop part 223, making the silver wire flush with the other end of the sleeve 20.

[0038] Preferably, the vertical distance between the stop portion 223 and the assembly portion 221 is greater than the length of the sleeve 20. In this embodiment, the assembly component 22 further includes a base module 224, and the assembly portion 221 is movably connected to the base module 224 and configured to move along the first direction of movement. That is, when the length of the sleeve 20 is long enough, the vertical distance between the stop portion 223 and the assembly portion 221 can be made greater than the length of the sleeve 20 by moving the assembly portion 221.

[0039] The pressing module 3 includes a transfer part 31 and a pressing part 32 arranged opposite to each other. The transfer part 31 is configured to move in a direction close to or away from the pressing part 32. The transfer part 31 is provided with a transfer clamp 311. During the movement of the transfer part 31, the transfer clamp 311 can be positioned opposite to the clamping module 40 and clamp the sleeve 20 on the clamping module 40. Of course, at this time, the sleeve 20 is actually a combination of the sleeve 20 and the silver wire.

[0040] The transfer clamp 311 is provided with a transfer clamping part 3111, which is configured to rotatably rotate the clamped sleeve 20 90 degrees in the horizontal direction. In this way, it can ensure that the two sides are pressed together, so that the silver wire and the sleeve 20 are more tightly fixed.

[0041] The assembly equipment 100 also includes a pull-out resistance module 5 disposed between the pressing module 3 and the detection and feeding module 4. The pull-out resistance module 5 is used to detect the firmness of the assembly of the silver wire and the sleeve 20.

[0042] The detection and unloading module 4 includes a camera module 41 located near the support position 30. The gripping module 40 of the detection and unloading module 4 is configured to grip and move the silver wire and sleeve 20 assembly after passing through the tensile strength module 5 to a position opposite to the camera module 41. In this way, the camera module 41 can detect whether the silver wire and sleeve 20 have met the quality requirements, and then move them to the qualified or unqualified area for product unloading.

[0043] In summary, the assembly equipment 100 for silver wire and sleeve 20 of this utility model, by circumferentially arranging a hole cleaning module 1, an assembly module 2, a pressing module 3, and a detection and unloading module 4 on the outer periphery of the turntable 10, enables the support position 30 on the turntable 10 for supporting the sleeve 20 to be sequentially aligned with the hole cleaning module 1, the assembly module 2, the pressing module 3, and the detection and unloading module 4 during the rotation of the turntable 10. The assembly module 2 includes a silver wire feeding component 21 and an assembly component 22 for assembling the silver wire and sleeve 20. The assembly component 22 is provided with a through hole 220, and at least one end of the sleeve 20 is located in the through hole 220. The silver wire passes through the sleeve 20 from the side of the through hole 220 relative to the sleeve 20. In this way, the entire process of automated assembly is realized, and accurate assembly alignment is guaranteed. In addition, this highly integrated and automated assembly equipment 100 can continuously and efficiently complete the entire process, including cleaning of the sleeve 20, precise insertion and assembly of the silver wire, pressing and fixing, and online quality inspection and sorting, on a compact platform. It also effectively solves the positioning, guidance and protection problems in the silver wire insertion process, thereby greatly improving assembly efficiency, product yield and consistency, and reducing production costs.

[0044] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
