Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of riveting equipment technology, and in particular to an automatic aluminum riveting machine. Background Technology
[0002] Riveting equipment uses a stamping machine and a special connecting mold to process two or more layers of plates of different materials and thicknesses through a high-pressure instantaneous process. Based on the cold extrusion deformation of the plate material itself, a stress-free inlaid dot with a certain tensile and shear strength is formed, which can then be used to connect the plates.
[0003] The current aluminum riveting process is done manually. The operator stacks two aluminum parts to be riveted together, holds one end of each part, and places the other end of the two parts on the riveting station to wait for riveting. Manual operation is not only inefficient and costly, but also causes operator fatigue and poses safety hazards due to long working hours. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an automatic aluminum riveting machine that addresses the shortcomings of existing technologies. This invention can automatically complete the rivet feeding and riveting processes without manual operation, resulting in high riveting efficiency, low labor costs, and ensuring safe production in the factory.
[0005] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: an automatic aluminum riveting machine includes a rivet feeding channel, a vibratory feeder at the inlet of the rivet feeding channel, a fixed platform at the outlet of the rivet feeding channel, a rivet pushing channel on the fixed platform, the rivet pushing channel communicating with the rivet feeding channel, a push rod inside the rivet pushing channel, a driving mechanism for driving the push rod to push materials at the left end of the fixed platform, a riveting station at the right end of the fixed platform, a riveting mechanism above the riveting station, and a turntable located beside the fixed platform. Several card holders are located on the upper end of the turntable, and aluminum parts are placed on the card holders.
[0006] Preferably, a CCD detection mechanism is provided on the side of the rivet feeding channel.
[0007] Preferably, the push rod includes a push rod body, the push rod body is provided with a baffle, and the baffle and the push rod body are combined in an L-shape.
[0008] Preferably, the drive mechanism includes a cylinder, and the piston rod of the cylinder is fixedly connected to the push rod.
[0009] Preferably, the riveting station is provided with a positioning groove.
[0010] Preferably, the riveting mechanism includes a hydraulic cylinder, and the piston rod of the hydraulic cylinder is provided with a riveting punch.
[0011] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: The aluminum part consists of two aluminum sheets stacked one on top of the other. The aluminum part is placed on the holder, and the rivet is fed into the rivet feeding channel by a vibratory feeder. After the rivet comes out from the outlet of the rivet feeding channel, it enters the rivet pushing channel. At this time, the drive mechanism drives the push rod to push the rivet located in the rivet pushing channel to the riveting station. Then the turntable moves one of the aluminum parts to the riveting station, with one end of the aluminum part located directly above the rivet. Then the riveting mechanism performs riveting, riveting the two aluminum sheets stacked one on top of the other together with the rivet. This utility model can automatically complete the rivet feeding and riveting process without manual operation, with high riveting efficiency, low labor cost, and ensure safe production in the factory.

[0014] Figure 3 for Figure 2 A magnified structural diagram of point A in the middle. Detailed Implementation
[0015] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1 To be continued Figure 3 The present invention will be further described in detail below, along with specific embodiments.
[0016] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, an automatic aluminum riveting machine includes a rivet feeding channel 1, a vibratory feeder 2 at the inlet of the rivet feeding channel 1, a fixed platform 3 at the outlet of the rivet feeding channel 1, a rivet pushing channel 4 connected to the rivet feeding channel 1, a push rod 5 inside the rivet pushing channel 4, a driving mechanism 6 for driving the push rod 5 to push materials at the left end of the fixed platform 3, a riveting station 7 at the right end of the fixed platform 3, a riveting mechanism 8 directly above the riveting station 7, and a turntable 9 located beside the fixed platform 3. Several card holders 10 are located on the upper end of the turntable 9, and aluminum parts are placed on the card holders 10.
[0017] In this embodiment, the aluminum part consists of two aluminum sheets stacked one on top of the other. The aluminum part is placed on the holder 10. The rivet is fed through the vibratory feeder 2 and enters the rivet feeding channel 1. After the rivet comes out from the outlet of the rivet feeding channel 1, it enters the rivet pushing channel 4. At this time, the drive mechanism 6 drives the push rod 5 to push the rivet located in the rivet pushing channel 4 to the riveting station 7. Then, the turntable 9 moves one of the aluminum parts to the riveting station 7, with one end of the aluminum part located directly above the rivet. Then, the riveting mechanism 8 performs riveting, riveting the two aluminum sheets stacked one on top of the other together with the rivet. This utility model can automatically complete the rivet feeding and riveting process without manual operation, with high riveting efficiency, low labor cost, and ensure safe production in the factory.
[0018] In this embodiment, a CCD detection mechanism 11 is provided on the side of the rivet feeding channel 1 to detect whether the rivet is damaged.
[0019] In this embodiment, the push rod 5 includes a push rod body 51, and the push rod body 51 is provided with a baffle 52. The baffle 52 and the push rod body 51 are combined in an L-shape. After the rivet enters the rivet feeding channel 4, it will be blocked by the baffle 52. The rivets in the subsequent rivet feeding channel 1 cannot enter the rivet feeding channel 4, ensuring that the push rod 5 pushes only one rivet to the riveting station 7 at a time.
[0020] In this embodiment, the driving mechanism 6 includes a cylinder, and the piston rod of the cylinder is fixedly connected to the push rod 5. The push rod 5 is driven to push the material through the cylinder.
[0021] In this embodiment, the riveting station 7 is provided with a positioning groove 71. When the rivet is pushed to the riveting station 7, it will fall into the positioning groove 71 to prevent the rivet from shifting during the riveting process and affecting the riveting quality.
[0022] In this embodiment, the riveting mechanism 8 includes a hydraulic cylinder 81, and the piston rod of the hydraulic cylinder 81 is provided with a riveting punch 82. The hydraulic cylinder 81 generates a punching force to directly press the rivet into the aluminum part and rivet the two aluminum pieces together.
[0023] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of this utility model. For those skilled in the art, there will be changes in the specific implementation method and application scope based on the idea of this utility model. The content of this specification should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.
