Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of connector technology, specifically to an anti-slip nozzle for a connector. Background Technology

[0002] The connector housing is used to support the corresponding connector, thereby enabling the construction of a connector capable of electrical transmission. In the product manufacturing process, most production is automated using mechanical equipment. Typically, a robotic arm is used to pick up the connector and place it into a carrier tape. When the customer uses the product, the connector needs to be removed from the carrier tape. In the existing technology, the plane that the robotic arm needs to pick up requires a certain area. When there is no suitable plane for picking up the connector in the vertical direction, a nozzle cover is required to provide a stable picking surface for the robotic arm to pick up. Utility Model Content

[0003] Therefore, the technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the defect that some connectors in the prior art do not have a suitable plane in the vertical direction to provide a stable suction surface when picking them up, which makes it easy for the robot to drop the connector or cause deformation of the side wall of the connector when it is holding it. Thus, this utility model provides a non-slip suction nozzle for connectors with a stable suction surface for the robot to pick up.

[0004] Therefore, this utility model provides an anti-slip suction nozzle for a connector. The connector includes a housing and a plurality of pins disposed inside the housing. The anti-slip suction nozzle includes a suction plate and a connecting plate disposed below the suction plate and engaging with the pins. The side of the connecting plate is also provided with an anti-slip block for preventing the suction plate from moving. The anti-slip block is located between two adjacent pins.

[0005] Furthermore: the connecting plate includes a first clamping plate and a second clamping plate disposed on the lower end face of the suction plate, and a space for the card pin to be inserted is formed between the first clamping plate and the second clamping plate, and the anti-slip block is disposed on the first clamping plate and / or the second clamping plate.

[0006] Furthermore: the first clamping plate includes a first contact portion and a first abutting portion, the first abutting portion being interference-fitted with the pin.

[0007] Furthermore, the first contact portion is disposed between the first contact portion and the suction plate.

[0008] Furthermore: the second clamping plate includes a second contact portion and a second abutment portion, the second abutment portion being interference-fitted with the pin.

[0009] Furthermore, the second contact portion is disposed between the second abutment portion and the second suction plate.

[0010] Furthermore, the suction plate is provided with an extension plate on its side for extending and being gripped by an external mechanical claw.

[0011] Furthermore, the housing has protrusions, and the suction plate is also provided with clearance grooves for avoiding the protrusions.

[0012] The technical solution of this utility model has the following advantages:

[0013] 1. This utility model provides an anti-slip suction nozzle for a connector. A suction plate is provided on the top of the housing, and a connecting plate is provided below the suction plate. During automated production, a robot arm picks up the suction plate and installs it on the top of the housing, so that the connecting plate is fastened to the pin. Then, the suction nozzle on another robot arm picks up the suction plate, thereby lifting the suction plate. Since the connecting plate is fastened to the pin, when the suction plate is lifted, it can pull the housing up together and put it into the carrier tape. The connecting plate has an anti-slip block, which is integrally formed with the connecting plate. When the connecting plate is fastened to the pin, the anti-slip block is located between two adjacent pins. The anti-slip block can effectively prevent the suction plate from shifting, thereby avoiding the failure of suction due to the inability to determine the suction surface after the suction plate shifts. Furthermore, the suction plate can provide a suitable suction surface for connectors where the housing does not have a suitable flat surface as a suction surface in the vertical direction, which facilitates automated operation.

[0014] 2. The present invention provides an anti-slip suction nozzle for a connector. The connecting plate is formed by combining a first clamping plate and a second clamping plate arranged opposite to each other. An anti-slip block is provided, which can be set on either the first clamping plate or the second clamping plate. When the robot arm installs the first clamping plate and the second clamping plate to the pin, the first clamping plate and the second clamping plate are interference-fitted with the pin. This effectively prevents the first clamping plate and the second clamping plate from detaching from the pin when the suction plate is picked up by the suction nozzle. Attached Figure Description

[0031] Example

[0032] This embodiment provides an anti-slip suction nozzle for a connector. The connector includes a housing 1 and a plurality of pins 11 disposed inside the housing 1. The anti-slip suction nozzle includes a suction plate 2 and a connecting plate 3 disposed below the suction plate 2 and fastened to the pins 11. The side of the connecting plate 3 is also provided with an anti-slip block 4 for accommodating the movement of the suction plate 2. The anti-slip block 4 is located between two adjacent pins 11.

[0033] The specific improvements mentioned above are as follows: Figures 1-4 As shown, a suction plate 2 is provided above the housing 1, and a connecting plate 3 is provided below the suction plate 2. During automated production, a robot arm picks up the suction plate 2 and installs it above the housing 1, so that the connecting plate 3 is fastened to the pin 11. Then, the suction nozzle on another robot arm sucks up the suction plate 2, thereby lifting the suction plate 2. Since the connecting plate 3 is fastened to the pin 11, when the suction plate 2 is lifted, it can pull the housing 1 up together and put it into the carrier belt. The connecting plate 3 has an anti-slip block 4, which is integrally formed with the connecting plate 3. When the connecting plate 3 is fastened to the pin 11, the anti-slip block 4 is located between two adjacent pins 11. The anti-slip block 4 can effectively prevent the suction plate 2 from shifting, thereby avoiding the failure of suction due to the inability to determine the suction surface after the suction plate 2 shifts. Furthermore, the suction plate 2 can provide a suitable suction surface for connectors where there is no suitable flat surface in the vertical direction of the housing 1, which facilitates automated operation.

[0034] Based on the above embodiments: the connecting plate 3 includes a first clamping plate 31 and a second clamping plate 32 disposed on the lower end face of the suction plate 2, and a space for the jack pin 11 to be inserted is formed between the first clamping plate 31 and the second clamping plate 32, and the anti-slip block 4 is disposed on the first clamping plate 31 and / or the second clamping plate 32.

[0035] The specific improvements mentioned above are as follows: Figures 4-6As shown, the connecting plate 3 is formed by combining a first clamping plate 31 and a second clamping plate 32 arranged opposite to each other. An anti-slip block 4 is provided, which can be set on either the first clamping plate 31 or the second clamping plate 32. When the robot arm installs the first clamping plate 31 and the second clamping plate 32 onto the chuck pin 11, the first clamping plate 31 and the second clamping plate 32 are interference-fitted with the chuck pin 11. This can effectively prevent the first clamping plate 31 and the second clamping plate 32 from detaching from the chuck pin 11 when the suction plate 2 is sucked up by the suction nozzle.

[0036] Based on the above embodiments: the first clamping plate 31 includes a first contact portion 311 and a first abutting portion 312, and the first abutting portion 312 is interference-fitted with the pin 11.

[0037] Based on the above embodiments: the first contact portion 311 is disposed between the first contact portion 312 and the suction plate 2.

[0038] Based on the above embodiments: the second clamping plate 32 includes a second contact portion 321 and a second abutment portion 322, and the second abutment portion 322 is interference-fitted with the pin 11.

[0039] Based on the above embodiments: the second contact portion 321 is disposed between the second abutment portion 322 and the second suction plate 2.

[0040] The specific improvements mentioned above are as follows: Figures 4-7 As shown, the first clamping plate 31 is composed of a first contact portion 311 and a first abutment portion 312, and the second clamping plate 32 is composed of a second contact portion 321 and a second abutment portion 322. The distance between the first abutment portion 312 and the second abutment portion 322 is less than the distance between the first contact portion 311 and the second contact portion 321. The first abutment portion 312 and the second abutment portion 322 are interference-fitted with the outer end face of the chuck pin 11, thereby effectively preventing the first abutment portion 312 and the second abutment portion 322 from disengaging from the chuck pin 11 during operation.

[0041] Based on the above embodiments: the suction plate 2 is provided with an extension plate 5 on the side for extension to be grasped by an external mechanical claw.

[0042] The specific improvements mentioned above are as follows: Figure 8As shown, in order to enable the anti-slip nozzle to adapt to connectors with different pin numbers (one pin 11 in the connector represents one pin number), when the number of pins 11 in the connector is even, the suction plate 2 can be set in the middle of the connector, so that the suction plate 2 can be easily picked up by the nozzle of the robot arm. When the number of pins 11 in the connector is odd, the anti-slip block 4 and the pins 11 will interfere with each other. Therefore, the suction plate 2 needs to be set in the middle of the connector slightly to the left. However, since the position of the robot arm's suction plate is fixed, when the suction plate 2 moves slightly to the left, in order to ensure that the suction plate 2 can be picked up normally by the nozzle of the robot arm, an extension plate 5 is set on the suction plate 2 to expand the area of ​​the suction plate 2, so as to ensure that the suction plate 2 can be picked up smoothly.

[0043] Based on the above embodiments: the housing 1 has a protrusion 6, and the suction plate 2 is also provided with a relief groove 7 for avoiding the protrusion 6.

[0044] The specific improvements mentioned above are as follows: Figure 9 As shown, when the connector has 2 pins, in order to install the suction plate 2 smoothly, it is necessary to avoid the protrusion 6 on the housing 1. Therefore, it is necessary to set the suction plate 2 with the avoidance groove 7 to avoid the protrusion 6.

[0045] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely illustrative examples for clear explanation and are not intended to limit the implementation. Those skilled in the art will recognize that other variations or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations here. However, obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom are still within the protection scope of this invention.
