Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of keyboard manufacturing technology, specifically to an automatic keyboard bracket installation device with automatic loading and unloading. Background Technology

[0002] The keyboard stand is an important component of the keyboard, providing stable support and flexible movement for the keys. These switches are usually made of high-quality materials, offering excellent durability and stability. They ensure that the keys respond quickly and provide clear feedback when typed, while also maintaining key balance and consistency. The design of the keyboard stand switches often incorporates ergonomic principles, effectively reducing fatigue from prolonged typing. Whether it's a mechanical keyboard or a membrane keyboard, a high-quality stand switch can enhance the overall user experience, making every keystroke more comfortable and precise.

[0003] Keyboard bracket installation equipment is a tool used to quickly and accurately assemble keyboard brackets with keyboard bodies. Through precise positioning and stable clamping, it can ensure that the keyboard bracket is accurately installed in the designated position, laying the foundation for the perfect fit between the keyboard bracket and the keys. This equipment is widely used in keyboard manufacturing plants to help workers quickly complete the assembly of large batches of keyboards, while also ensuring the uniformity and stability of the products.

[0004] However, existing keyboard bracket installation equipment has a significant speed matching problem in the loading and unloading process. When the loading and unloading speed is too fast, a large number of keyboard brackets will quickly accumulate on the conveyor track or in the temporary storage area. This not only easily leads to deformation of the bracket corners and structural damage due to mutual squeezing and collision, affecting the accuracy of subsequent installation, but may also cause blockage of the conveyor channel, forcing the equipment to stop for cleaning, which seriously disrupts the production rhythm. Intentionally slowing down the loading and unloading speed will significantly reduce the overall production efficiency, making it impossible for the equipment to fully utilize its installation capacity. This disconnects from the factory's large-scale, fast-paced production needs, resulting in a decrease in output per unit time and an increase in production and time costs. Therefore, an automatic loading and unloading keyboard bracket installation equipment is proposed to address the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0033] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0034] It should be noted that the terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to limit the exemplary embodiments according to this application. As used herein, the singular form is intended to include the plural form as well, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. Furthermore, it should be understood that when the terms "comprising" and / or "including" are used in this specification, they indicate the presence of features, steps, operations, devices, components, and / or combinations thereof.

[0035] Please see Figures 1-9 This utility model provides a technical solution:

[0036] An automatic keyboard bracket installation device includes a keyboard switch bracket assembly machine 1, a vibrating feeding plate 2, and an installation mechanism 5. The vibrating feeding plate 2 is fixedly installed on the keyboard switch bracket assembly machine 1. A right PPU implantation head assembly 3 and a left PPU implantation head assembly 4 are bolted to the keyboard switch bracket assembly machine 1. The installation mechanism 5 is slidably connected to the upper end of the keyboard switch bracket assembly machine 1. The right PPU implantation head assembly 3 includes a support platform 31, and a conveying mechanism 32 is bolted to the upper end of the support platform 31. A clamping mechanism 33 is provided at the upper end of the conveying mechanism 32, and a support frame 34 is bolted to one side of the clamping mechanism 33. The conveying mechanism 32 includes a grooved strip 321, with a conveying groove 322 at the upper end of the grooved strip 321. A pressure strip 3 is bolted to the upper end of the grooved strip 321. 23. The clamping mechanism 33 includes an assembly block 331. A cylinder 332 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the assembly block 331. A connector 333 is fixedly installed on the output end of the main shaft of the cylinder 332. A connecting block 335 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the connector 333. A pickup head 336 is fixedly installed on one side of the connecting block 335 by bolts. The right PPU implantation head assembly 3 also includes a stand 35. A feeding mechanism 36 is fixedly snapped onto the upper end of the stand 35. The feeding mechanism 36 includes a grooved seat 361. A seat groove 362 is opened on the upper end of the grooved seat 361. A stop block 363 is inserted and fixed in the grooved seat 361. A telescopic motor 364 is fixedly installed inside the seat groove 362. A sliding frame 365 is slidably connected to the inner side of the seat groove 362. A feeding block 366 is snapped onto the upper end of the sliding frame 365. A feeding groove 367 is opened on the upper end of the feeding block 366.

[0037] As a further implementation of this solution, two vibratory feeding trays 2 are provided, which are symmetrically distributed. The right PPU implantation head group 3 and the left PPU implantation head group 4 have the same structure. The positions of the right PPU implantation head group 3 and the left PPU implantation head group 4 correspond to the positions of the two vibratory feeding trays 2, respectively. The left PPU implantation head group 4 has the same design as the right PPU implantation head group 3, and each of them corresponds to one vibratory feeding tray 2. This allows multiple keyboard bracket shafts to be installed onto the workpiece to be installed in the mounting mechanism 5 by the right PPU implantation head group 3 and the left PPU implantation head group 4 at the same time.

[0038] As a further implementation of this solution, the bottom surface of the support platform 31 and the bottom surface of the upright 35 are on the same horizontal plane, and the clamping mechanism 33 is located above the feeding mechanism 36. The feeding mechanism 36 is set on the side of the conveying mechanism 32 close to the mounting mechanism 5. The design that the bottom surface of the support platform 31 and the bottom surface of the upright 35 are on the same horizontal plane can reduce mutual interference between mechanical parts and reduce the failure rate. The layout of the clamping mechanism 33 above the feeding mechanism 36 allows the clamping mechanism 33 to directly grab materials from the feeding mechanism 36 without additional horizontal movement or complex mechanical adjustments. This vertical material transmission path can greatly shorten the time for clamping and placing materials and improve production efficiency.

[0039] As a further implementation of this solution, the support frame 34 includes a PPU mechanical mounting support frame 341. A servo motor 342 is fixedly connected to the outer side of one side of the PPU mechanical mounting support frame 341. A transmission plate 343 is fixedly connected to the side of the PPU mechanical mounting support frame 341 away from the servo motor 342. A sliding limit groove 344 is provided on the inner side of the transmission plate 343. A vertical guide rail 346 is slidably connected within the sliding limit groove 344. A horizontal guide rail 345 is fixedly mounted on the PPU mechanical mounting support frame 341. The horizontal guide rail 345 is positioned within the transmission plate 341. Below the moving plate 343, a connecting member 347 is slidably connected to the outer side of the vertical guide rail 346. The connecting member 347 and the horizontal guide rail 345 are slidably engaged. A sliding limiting groove 344 is opened on the inner side of the transmission plate 343 to limit the movement direction of the vertical guide rail 346 and ensure that it slides in a predetermined direction. The horizontal guide rail 345 is used to guide the horizontal movement of the connecting member 347. The horizontal guide rail 345 and the vertical guide rail 346 work together to realize the precise movement of the connecting member 347 in the horizontal and vertical directions, so that the structure can realize complex motion trajectories.

[0040] As a further implementation of this solution, two conveying channels 322 are provided, which are symmetrically distributed. The cross-sectional shape of the conveying channel 322 is composed of rectangles and isosceles trapezoids. Multiple pressure strips 323 are provided, and the distance between any two adjacent pressure strips 323 is two-thirds of the width of the conveying channel 322. The shape of the conveying channel 322 makes it easier for the keyboard support shaft to enter and quickly slide through the conveying channel 322 into the feeding groove 367 opened on the feeding block 366. The setting of the pressure strips 323 ensures that the keyboard support shaft will not tilt or misalign when it slides quickly in the conveying channel 322, and can accurately reach the feeding groove 367.

[0041] As a further implementation of this solution, the assembly block 331 is snapped onto the outside of the PPU mechanical mounting bracket 341. Two cylinders 332, two connectors 333, and two connecting blocks 335 are provided. The connecting block 335 and the retaining strip 334 form a sliding fit. The angle between the central axis of the connector 333 and the connecting block 335 is 90°. The cylinder 332 can apply force to the connecting block 335 through the connector 333.

[0042] As a further implementation of this solution, the angle between the output shaft of the telescopic motor 364 and the sliding frame 365 is 90°. The upper surface of the feeding block 366 and the upper surface of the grooved strip 321 are on the same horizontal plane. There are two feeding grooves 367, which are connected to the conveying groove 322. This design allows the output shaft of the telescopic motor 364 to better drive the sliding frame 365 to move, so that the feeding block 366, which is engaged at the upper end of the sliding frame 365, moves with the movement of the sliding frame 365, changing the spatial position of the feeding groove 367.

[0043] Workflow: During operation, the keyboard support shafts to be installed are added to the hopper of the vibrating feeder 2. Then, the keyboard support assembly machine 1 controls the electromagnetic vibrator in the vibrating feeder 2 to generate high-frequency, low-amplitude vibrations, driving the keyboard support shafts to climb along a specially designed spiral track in the vibrating feeder 2. After screening and orientation, the keyboard support shafts are arranged in a uniform posture on the track in the vibrating feeder 2, eventually reaching the end of the track. They are then output one by one from the end of the track, quickly entering the conveying groove 322 on the upper end of the grooved block 321. The shape of the conveying groove 322 makes it easier for the keyboard support shafts to enter, and they quickly slide down through the conveying groove 322 into the feeding groove 367 on the feeding block 366. The pressure bar 323 ensures that the keyboard support shaft slides rapidly in the conveyor groove 322 without tilting or misalignment, accurately reaching the feeding groove 367. At this point, the servo motor 342 starts, and the rotation of the servo motor 342's main shaft causes the transmission mechanism in the transmission plate 343 to drive the vertical guide rail 346 to slide in the sliding limit groove 344. Simultaneously, the connecting piece 347 slides along the horizontal guide rail 345, causing the assembly block 331 fixedly mounted on the vertical guide rail 346 to shift. When the assembly block 331 begins to shift, the cylinder 332, located above the connecting block 335 where the pickup head 336 is fixedly mounted, starts. The output shaft of the cylinder 332 pushes the connecting block 335 downwards through the connector 333, thus causing the connecting block 331 to shift. The pickup head 336, fixedly mounted on the mounting mechanism 5, clamps the keyboard bracket shaft in the feeding groove 367. Then, as the entire clamping mechanism 33 moves, the keyboard bracket shaft clamped by the pickup head 336 is displaced and installed onto the workpiece to be installed on the keyboard bracket shaft placed in the mounting mechanism 5. Simultaneously, as the clamping mechanism 33 resets, the output shaft of the telescopic motor 364 moves, causing the sliding frame 365 to slide in the seat groove 362 opened above the slotted seat 361. The feeding block 366, engaged at the upper end of the sliding frame 365, moves with the sliding frame 365, causing another feeding groove 367 to move below the pickup head 336, thereby moving the keyboard bracket shaft therein again onto the workpiece to be installed on the keyboard bracket shaft placed in the mounting mechanism 5 according to the above process. This causes vibration... The moving feeder 2 allows for smoother conveying of the keyboard support shaft. Each time a keyboard support shaft enters the conveyor trough 322 and reaches the two feed troughs 367, simply increasing the movement and installation speed of the pickup head 336 in the feed troughs 367 increases the device's efficiency. Furthermore, the pickup head 336 extracts only one keyboard support shaft at a time, avoiding interference between shafts and making the extraction process smoother. When the device needs to improve overall efficiency, the pickup head 336 can be installed on the connecting block 335 where it is not currently installed, thus adapting to different production needs. Similarly, the left PPU implantation head group 4 and the right PPU implantation head group 3 have the same structure, and each corresponds to a vibrating feeder 2. Therefore...Multiple keyboard bracket switches can be installed onto the workpiece to which the keyboard bracket switches are to be installed simultaneously.

[0044] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
