Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to an auxiliary device for watch manufacturing, specifically an auxiliary device for assembling watch case buttons. Background Technology
[0002] In watch manufacturing, the assembly of the watch case and pushers is a crucial and delicate process. Traditional assembly methods have many drawbacks. For example, in manual assembly, workers must hold the pushers and watch case, relying on experience and feel to accurately press the pushers into the corresponding mounting holes in the watch case. This not only demands extremely high worker skills, but also, due to the subjectivity of manual operation, it is difficult to ensure that the force and position of the pushers are completely consistent each time, resulting in low assembly accuracy and a high defect rate. According to incomplete statistics, in some small watch factories that use purely manual assembly, the defect rate for pusher assembly can reach 15% to 20%.
[0003] Some manufacturers use simple tooling to assist assembly; however, these toolings are usually simple in structure and only serve a basic positioning function. In actual operation, the buttons are prone to tilting or even falling off before being pressed. Once this happens, workers need to readjust the button position, which greatly affects assembly efficiency. Furthermore, this simple tooling cannot effectively control the pressing force of the buttons, easily resulting in over- or under-pressing, leading to low assembly accuracy, seriously affecting product quality, and reducing processing efficiency. As the market's demands for watch quality and production efficiency continue to increase, existing methods of assembling watch cases and buttons are no longer sufficient. Therefore, the inventor has improved the structure of the watch case button assembly device. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an auxiliary device for assembling watch case buttons. This device has a simple structure and reasonable design, and solves the problems of low assembly accuracy, low processing efficiency and high defect rate in the existing watch case button assembly process. This device can achieve accurate positioning and stable pressing of buttons, effectively improving product quality and production efficiency, reducing production costs, and solving the problems mentioned in the above technical background.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an auxiliary device for assembling watch case buttons, comprising a support mechanism, on which a positioning mechanism, a button placement mechanism, and a pressing mechanism are arranged sequentially from left to right. A driving mechanism is provided between the button placement mechanism and the pressing mechanism. The positioning mechanism is used to accurately fix the position of the watch case, the button placement mechanism is used to place the buttons to be assembled, and the pressing mechanism is used to press the buttons into the watch case. The driving mechanism provides power to the pressing mechanism to realize the button pressing operation. The positioning mechanism includes a watch case positioning seat and a positioning pin fixed on the watch case positioning seat. The shape of the watch case positioning seat precisely matches the bottom contour of the watch case, enabling a tight fit against the watch case and preventing misalignment during assembly. During assembly, displacement occurs, and the positioning pin aligns with the positioning hole on the watch case, further improving the accuracy of watch case positioning. When the watch case is placed on the watch case positioning seat, the positioning pin inserts into the positioning hole of the watch case, achieving precise positioning of the watch case. The watch case positioning seat is set on the support mechanism. The button placement mechanism includes a button placement seat and a button positioning groove set on the button placement seat. The button positioning groove is located between the button placement seat and the positioning pin. The pressing mechanism includes a pressure rod and a pressure head fixed to one end of the pressure rod. The other end of the pressure rod is installed on the drive mechanism. The shape of the pressure head is consistent with the shape of the top of the button and is made of high-hardness rubber material, which can ensure that sufficient pressure is applied to the button during the pressing process while avoiding damage to the button surface.
[0006] Preferably, the support mechanism includes a base and a mounting platform fixed to one side of the upper surface of the base. The watch case positioning seat is fixed to the upper surface of the mounting platform. The base, as the supporting foundation of the entire device, is made of high-strength aluminum alloy and has good stability and durability.
[0007] Preferably, the button holder and the button positioning slot are arranged in parallel, and the button holder is tilted with an angle between 5° and 15°. By setting the button holder and the button positioning slot to an tilted state, the button positioning slot can correspond to the positioning hole on the watch case in an tilted state, thereby further improving the accuracy of the watch case positioning.
[0008] Preferably, the drive mechanism includes a manual push rod and a side support fixed to one end of the manual push rod. The other end of the manual push rod is connected to the button placement seat. During the pressing process, the manual push rod pushes the pressure rod downward. When the button reaches the appropriate position, it will be obstructed, preventing the manual push rod from continuing to move downward. This ensures that the pressing force and depth of the button are just right. The shape and size of the button positioning groove are precisely matched with the button, which can ensure that the button is in the correct position and orientation when placed, effectively preventing the button from tilting or falling off.
[0009] Preferably, the end of the pressure bar away from the pressure head is mounted on the side support, and the side support is fixed to the end of the upper surface of the base away from the mounting platform.
[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: 1. This utility model provides an auxiliary device for assembling watch case buttons. The auxiliary device includes a support mechanism, on which a positioning mechanism, a button placement mechanism, and a pressing mechanism are arranged sequentially from left to right. A driving mechanism is provided between the button placement mechanism and the pressing mechanism. The overall structure is simple and rationally designed. The positioning mechanism is used to accurately fix the position of the watch case, the button placement mechanism is used to place the buttons to be assembled, and the pressing mechanism is used to press the buttons into the watch case. The driving mechanism provides power to the pressing mechanism to realize the pressing operation of the buttons. The positioning mechanism includes a watch case positioning seat and a positioning pin fixed on the watch case positioning seat. The button placement mechanism includes a button placement seat and a button positioning groove disposed on the button placement seat. Through the watch case positioning seat and positioning pin of the positioning mechanism, the watch case can be accurately positioned. The button positioning groove of the button placement mechanism ensures the accuracy of button placement, thereby guaranteeing the positional accuracy of the buttons during the pressing process, effectively reducing the defect rate, enabling the device to achieve large-scale production, and making it suitable for widespread use.
[0011] 2. The pressing mechanism in this utility model includes a pressing rod and a pressing head fixed to one end of the pressing rod. The other end of the pressing rod is mounted on the driving mechanism. The shape of the pressing head is consistent with the shape of the top of the button. The button placement mechanism and pressing mechanism of this device can be adjusted to adapt to watch cases and buttons of different sizes and shapes, and have strong versatility. It can meet the assembly needs of watch cases and buttons of various types of watches. Through this auxiliary device, the button can be accurately positioned and stably pressed in, which effectively improves product quality and production efficiency and reduces production costs.

From left to right, a positioning mechanism 200, a button placement mechanism 300, and a pressing mechanism 400 are sequentially arranged on the support mechanism 100. A driving mechanism 500 is provided between the button placement mechanism 300 and the pressing mechanism 400. The positioning mechanism 200 is used to accurately fix the position of the watch case, the button placement mechanism 300 is used to place the buttons to be assembled, and the pressing mechanism 400 is used to press the buttons into the watch case. The driving mechanism 500 provides power to the pressing mechanism 400 to realize the button pressing operation.
[0018] Please see Figure 2The support mechanism 100 includes a base 101 and a mounting platform 102 fixed to one side of the upper surface of the base 101. A watch case positioning seat 201 is fixed to the upper surface of the mounting platform 102.
