[0030] 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 skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0031] Figure 1 This invention presents a first structural schematic diagram of the automatic rivet installation device. Figure 2 This invention illustrates the second structural diagram of the automatic riveting column installation device. Figure 3 A schematic diagram of the feeding mechanism in this utility model is shown. Figure 4This shows a first structural schematic diagram of the moving mechanism in this utility model. Figure 5The diagram shows a second structural schematic of the moving mechanism in this utility model. The automatic riveting column installation device includes: a base 1, multiple installation mechanisms 2, and a moving mechanism 3 disposed on the base 1. The moving mechanism 3 includes: a moving guide rail 31 and an installation slide plate 32. The installation slide plate 32 is mounted on the moving guide rail 31 based on an installation slider 35. The multiple installation mechanisms 2 are respectively located on both sides of the moving mechanism 3. Each installation mechanism 2 includes: a feeding mechanism 21 and an installation robot 22. The installation robot 22 is driven by a built-in drive motor to rotate back and forth between the feeding mechanism 21 and the moving guide rail 31. The output end of the installation robot 22 is provided with a riveting pressure head, which is driven by the installation robot 22 to move up and down in the vertical direction. The moving mechanism 3 has two moving guide rails 31 and a mounting plate 37. The two moving guide rails 31 are arranged in parallel. Four mounting sliders 35 are provided at the bottom of one of the mounting slide plates 32. Two of the four mounting sliders 35 are mounted on one of the moving guide rails 31, and the other two are mounted on the other moving guide rail 31. That is, the mounting sliders 35 can move on their respective moving guide rails 31 to change their position. Four corresponding fixing blocks 311 are provided at the bottom of the two moving guide rails 31. The four fixing blocks 311 are evenly distributed at the bottom of the moving guide rails 31. When the height of the moving guide rails 31 is raised, they provide stable support for the moving guide rails 31, preventing them from wobbling during use and ensuring that the moving guide rails 31 are stably mounted on the base 1. The mounting slide plate 32 is used to support the chassis base or top cover to be processed. When the mounting slide plate 32 moves along the moving guide rail 31 to the area of ​​the mounting mechanism 2, the mounting mechanism 2 processes it. Then, the mounting slide plate 32 moves along the moving guide rail 31 to an area away from the mounting mechanism 2, making it convenient for the next process device to remove it. The automatic riveting column installation equipment is provided with two mounting mechanisms 2, which are located on the left and right sides of the moving mechanism 3, respectively. Each mounting mechanism 2 includes two feeding mechanisms 21 and one installation robot 22. The two feeding mechanisms 21 are located on both sides of the installation robot 22, and the output ends of the two feeding mechanisms 21 are within the range of motion of the installation robot 22, ensuring that the installation robot 22 can pick up the materials supplied by the feeding mechanisms 21 within its range of motion. Furthermore, the two feeding mechanisms 21 are arranged on both sides of the installation robot 22, which shortens the travel distance of the installation robot 22.Each feeding mechanism 21 is responsible for a specific area. When a rivet needs to be installed in this area, the installation robot 22 picks up the rivet from the feeding mechanism 21 and moves it to the corresponding position for processing. This avoids the need for the installation robot 22 to move to a designated position to pick up the material every time it picks up a rivet, which would increase the working stroke of the installation robot 22. Reducing the travel distance of the installation robot 22 reduces its travel time and improves the installation efficiency of the automatic rivet installation equipment. The output end of the installation robot 22 is equipped with a riveting pressure head. After the installation robot 22 picks up the rivet, it moves to the position where it needs to be riveted, and the riveting pressure head, driven by the installation robot 22, drives the rivet into the corresponding position.

[0032] Furthermore, the moving mechanism 3 also includes a first drive motor 33 and a first threaded guide rod 34; one end of the first threaded guide rod 34 is fixedly connected to the output end of the first drive motor 33, and the first threaded guide rod 34 is driven by the first drive motor 33 to rotate around the axis of the first fine threaded guide rod. In this embodiment, the first drive motor 33 is mounted on the base 1, the output end of the first drive motor 33 is fixedly connected to one end of the first threaded guide rod 34, and the other end of the first threaded guide rod 34 is provided with a bearing seat 36. The bottom of the bearing seat 36 is fixedly connected to the base 1, and the other end of the first threaded guide rod 34 is inserted into the bearing seat 36, that is, the first threaded guide rod 34 is mounted on the base 1 based on the bearing seat 36 and the first drive motor 33. The first threaded guide rod 34 is arranged parallel to the moving guide rail 31, and the height of the bearing seat 36 is the same as the output end of the first drive motor 33, so that the first threaded guide rod 34 can be placed horizontally on the base 1. By precisely aligning the height of the bearing seat 36 with the center height of the output end of the first drive motor 33, it is ensured that the first threaded guide rod 34 only bears torque and no additional bending moment when rotating, avoiding uneven thread wear caused by guide rod tilting, which helps to eliminate vibration noise during movement and extend the service life of the first threaded guide rod 34.

[0033] Furthermore, the first threaded guide rod 34 is fitted with a connecting block 341, the top of the connecting block 341 is connected to the bottom center of the mounting slide plate 32, and the mounting slide plate 32 is driven by the connecting block 341 to move along the moving guide rail 31. The connecting block 341 has a threaded hole whose thread matches the thread of the first threaded guide rod 34, and the threaded hole extends through the entire connecting block 341. The top of the connecting block 341 is connected to the bottom of the mounting slide plate 32. When the first threaded guide rod 34 is driven by the first drive motor 33 to rotate, since the top of the connecting block 341 is connected to the bottom of the mounting slide plate 32, the connecting block 341 moves along the length direction of the first threaded guide rod 34 when the first threaded guide rod 34 rotates, thereby driving the mounting slide plate 32 to move. The length direction of the first threaded guide rod 34 is the same as the length direction of the moving guide rail 31, that is, the movement of the connecting block 341 along the length direction of the first threaded guide rod 34 can also be regarded as moving along the length direction of the moving guide rail 31, thereby driving the mounting slide plate 32 to move along the length direction of the moving guide rail 31, so that the mounting slide plate 32 moves along the moving guide rail 31 into the working range of the installation robot 22, which facilitates the installation robot 22 to process the materials on the mounting slide plate 32 and improves the installation efficiency.

[0034] Furthermore, the feeding mechanism 21 includes: a vibratory feeder 211, a conveyor line 212, and a feeding tray 213 with a feeding notch; the feed end of the conveyor line 212 is connected to the output end of the vibratory feeder 211, and the output end of the conveyor line 212 is inserted into the feeding notch. In this embodiment, the vibratory feeder 211 adopts an electromagnetically vibrating driven disc structure, with a spirally rising guide rail on its inner wall. The width of the guide rail matches the diameter of the part to be fed, and a directional screening groove is provided at the end of the guide rail to ensure that the parts are output to the conveyor line 212 in a uniform posture. The conveyor line 212 has a moving groove that matches the diameter of the part to be fed. The parts to be fed move sequentially along the moving groove to the feeding tray 213, and the material moves to the feeding notch in the feeding tray 213, where the feeding notch catches a corresponding part to be fed. When the feeding notch jams a feeding part, the feeding tray 213 feeds only one part at a time, avoiding the phenomenon of the feeding parts getting stuck or interfering on the feeding tray due to the simultaneous supply of multiple feeding parts. Single feeding helps to reduce and eliminate the risk of missed feeding and incorrect feeding.

[0035] Furthermore, the bottom of the feeding mechanism 21 is provided with a first support frame 214, a second support frame 215, and a third support frame 216. The first support frame 214 is installed at the bottom of the vibratory feeder 211, the second support frame 215 is installed at the bottom of the conveyor line 212, and the third support frame 216 is installed at the bottom of the feeding tray 213. The first support frame 214, the second support frame 215, and the third support frame 216 respectively raise the vibratory feeder 211, the conveyor line 212, and the feeding tray 213 to the same height. Moreover, each support frame supports one component, which can distribute the weight of the equipment to three support points, avoid local stress concentration caused by traditional centralized support, reduce the risk of resonance, and improve the structural stability of the feeding mechanism 21.

[0036] Furthermore, a first drive cylinder 217 is provided at the bottom of the feeding tray 213. The output end of the first drive cylinder 217 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the feeding tray 213, and the feeding tray 213 moves vertically under the drive of the first drive cylinder 217. When the first drive cylinder 217 outputs power, the output end of the first drive cylinder 217 moves upward in the vertical direction, which can move the feeding tray 213 upward in the vertical direction. At this time, the installation robot 22 moves downward in the vertical direction. The feeding tray 213 and the installation robot 22 move closer to each other, reducing the stroke of the installation robot 22, thereby shortening the time for the installation robot 22 to pick up the rivet and speeding up the movement efficiency of the installation robot 22.

[0037] Furthermore, a photosensitive eye 218 is provided on the feeding tray 213. The photosensitive eye 218 is located on one side of the feeding notch, and the detection end of the photosensitive eye 218 faces the feeding notch. The photosensitive eye 218 is signal-connected to the first driving cylinder 217. In this embodiment, the photosensitive eye 218 is used to detect whether there is material on the feeding notch. When the photosensitive eye 218 detects that there is rivet material on the feeding notch, the photosensitive eye 218 generates and sends a first electrical signal to the first driving cylinder 217. Upon receiving the first electrical signal sent by the photosensitive eye 218, the first driving cylinder 217 outputs power to lift the feeding tray 213, causing the feeding tray 213 with rivet material to move upward, facilitating the installation robot 22 to pick up the rivet and reducing the moving distance of the installation robot 22. When the photosensitive eye 218 detects that there is no rivet on the feeding notch... The sensor 218 generates and sends a second electrical signal to the second drive cylinder. Upon receiving the second electrical signal from the sensor 218, the second drive cylinder 217 outputs power. The output end of the first drive cylinder 217 moves downward in the vertical direction, thereby driving the feeding tray 213 to move downward until the notch on the feeding tray 213 connects with the output end of the conveyor line 212. This ensures that the rivet material on the conveyor line 212 can move from the output end of the conveyor line 212 to the notch on the feeding tray 213, making it convenient for the feeding tray 213 to lift the rivet material to a suitable position so that the installation robot 22 can pick up the material.

[0038] Furthermore, the installation robot 22 is a SCARA robot. In this embodiment, the SCARA robot has low inertia and high acceleration in the XY plane, enabling it to quickly complete actions such as gripping, handling, and assembly. That is, the installation robot 22 can quickly move the rivet provided by the feeding mechanism 21 to the corresponding chassis base or top cover, and install the rivet there. The installation robot 22 can move back and forth between the feeding mechanisms 21 on both sides, and then move to the corresponding position for riveting, thus improving the efficiency of rivet installation.

[0039] Furthermore, the base 1 is provided with multiple baffles 11, which are distributed around the edge of the base 1 and above the base 1 to form a four-sided protective cover. In this embodiment, the base 1 is provided with four baffles 11, three of which are distributed around the edge of the base 1, and the last baffle 11 is located above the other three baffles 11, forming a four-sided protective cover. The protective cover and the base 1 work together to ensure that only one of the mounting mechanism 2 and the moving mechanism 3 remains, protecting multiple mounting mechanisms 2 and the moving mechanism 3 from four directions, reducing the risk of external contaminants falling directly onto the mounting mechanism 2 or the moving mechanism 3 and affecting their normal operation.

[0040] It should be noted that the baffle 11 is detachably installed on the base 1, and the baffle 11 can be opened on the base 1 as a door, which facilitates maintenance personnel to carry out inspection and maintenance, reduces the steps of disassembling the entire protective cover, and improves maintenance efficiency.

[0041] Furthermore, the baffle 11 is made of a transparent material. In this embodiment, the baffle 11 is made of a transparent material, which can clearly show the dynamic process of the moving parts inside the equipment, and can clearly show the dynamic process of the installation mechanism 2 and the moving mechanism 3. Operators can observe the steps of part grabbing, positioning, and assembly in real time through the baffle 11, and promptly discover problems such as incorrect assembly or omissions, thereby eliminating information blind spots and improving response speed.

[0042] In summary, this utility model, by setting two feeding mechanisms and one installation robot in the automatic riveting column installation equipment, with the two feeding mechanisms located on both sides of the installation mechanism, ensures that the installation robot can pick up the materials supplied by the feeding mechanisms within its range of motion, shortening the movement stroke of the installation robot and thus reducing the movement time of the installation robot, which is beneficial to improving the installation efficiency of the automatic riveting column installation equipment.
