[0018] The embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model, but should not be used to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. Example:

[0019] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a pin module for an automatic terminal block insertion machine with variable center distance includes a connecting plate 11 for connecting external components, a mounting base 12, and multiple sets of pins. The mounting base 12 is mounted on the connecting plate 11 and has a U-shaped platform. A transport component for transporting the pin sets is provided on the U-shaped platform. The transport component includes a transport base 13, which is mounted on the U-shaped platform. The transport base 13 has a first limiting clamp 14 and a second limiting clamp 15, and the transport base 13, the first limiting clamp 14, and the second limiting clamp 15 form a transport slot. The feed end of the transport base 13 is provided with a guide roller, and a fixed platform 16 is provided on one side of the transport base 13. The fixed platform 16 has a transport gear 17 for pushing the pin sets to move. The first limiting clamp 14 has a transport slot. When the gear end of the transport gear 17 is connected to the pin set through the transport slot, a cutting component, a clamping component, and an insertion component are provided above the mounting base 12.

[0020] Specifically, the connecting plate 11 serves as the component connecting the entire module to external equipment or structures, providing an interface for installation and fixation of the module, ensuring its integration into the production system. The mounting base 12 is the mounting foundation for all components within the module. It is mounted on the connecting plate 11, providing a flat and reliable support plane for other components, ensuring the relative positional accuracy of each component during operation. The transport component is also equipped with a feeding instrument and a conveying instrument. In this device, one end of the transport gear 17 should be equipped with a motor or cylinder to provide power.

[0021] The cutting assembly includes a support platform 18, on which four sets of support columns 19 are provided. One end of each set of support columns 19 is fixedly connected to a support plate. A first cylinder 21 is provided on the support plate. A cutting blade 22 for cutting the needle assembly is provided at the bottom of the support plate. One end of the first cylinder 21 is connected to the cutting blade 22, and the cutting blade 22 is sleeved on the four sets of support columns 19.

[0022] Specifically, the support platform 18 supports the entire cutting assembly, ensuring its stable operation. Four sets of support columns 19 are vertically mounted on the support platform 18, providing reliable support for the support plate and guiding the vertical movement of the cutting blade 22. The first cylinder 21 serves as the power source; when activated, it drives the cutting blade 22 in a reciprocating linear motion along the support columns 19. The support plate supports the first cylinder 21 and transmits its power to the cutting blade 22. Driven by the first cylinder 21, the cutting blade 22 cuts the pin assembly on the transport assembly. By controlling the stroke and pressure of the first cylinder 21, the cutting position and force can be controlled, ensuring that the length of the cut pins meets production requirements.

[0023] like Figure 1 , Figures 3 to 6 As shown, the cutting blade 22 is located above the transport component, and the clamping component is located on one side of the cutting component. The clamping component includes a first slide rail 23, which is fixed on the mounting base plate 12. A sliding platform 24 is slidably connected to the first slide rail 23. One end of the first slide rail 23 is provided with an electric push rod, and one end of the electric push rod is connected to the sliding platform 24.

[0024] Specifically, the first slide rail 23 is fixed on the mounting base plate 12, providing a linear motion track for the sliding platform 24. The electric push rod acts as a drive device; when activated, it extends and retracts, causing the sliding platform 24 to move linearly along the first slide rail 23. This configuration allows the sliding platform 24 to be positioned on the mounting base plate 12, thereby enabling the gripping and transport of the cut pin assembly. As the support platform for the gripping components, the motion accuracy of the sliding platform 24 directly affects the stability of the gripping operation.

[0025] The clamping assembly also includes a rotating machine 25 for rotating the clamping component. The rotating machine 25 is fixed on the sliding platform 24. One end of the rotating machine 25 is connected to a second cylinder 26, and the second cylinder 26 is fixed to one side of the rotating machine 25.

[0026] Specifically, the rotary machine 25 is mounted on the sliding platform 24, enabling the gripping component to rotate around a specific axis. By controlling the rotation angle of the rotary machine 25, the orientation of the gripped pin assembly can be adjusted to meet the pin angle requirements of subsequent insertion processes. The second cylinder 26 works in conjunction with the rotary machine 25. After the rotary machine 25 has adjusted its angle, the second cylinder 26 can provide additional power to lock or fine-tune the position of the gripping component, ensuring that the gripped component maintains a stable posture after rotation and preventing angular displacement during handling.

[0027] One end of the rotary machine 25 is provided with a gripping component, which includes a first gripping claw 27. The first gripping claw 27 is connected to the rotary machine 25 through a support frame. A third cylinder 28 is provided on one side of the support frame, and the third cylinder 28 is connected to the first gripping claw 27.

[0028] Specifically, the support frame connects the first gripper 27 to the rotary machine 25, ensuring that the first gripper 27 can rotate with the rotary machine 25. The third cylinder 28, as the driving component of the first gripper 27, controls the opening and closing of the first gripper 27 when it operates. By controlling the extension and retraction of the third cylinder 28, the first gripper 27 can grip and release the pin assembly, and the gripping force can be adjusted according to the size and shape of the pin assembly to ensure that the pin assembly will not fall or be damaged during gripping and handling.

[0029] The insertion assembly includes a second slide rail 29, which is fixed on the mounting base plate 12. A drive shaft passes through the second slide rail 29. A motor is provided on one side of the second slide rail 29. The shaft end of the motor is connected to the drive shaft. A movable platform 31 is sleeved on the drive shaft. A guide plate 32 is fixedly connected to the top of the second slide rail 29.

[0030] Specifically, the second slide rail 29 is also fixed on the mounting base plate 12, providing another linear motion track for the moving stage 31. It cooperates with the first slide rail 23 of the clamping assembly to enable the movement of the pin assembly in different directions. The motor serves as the power source; when the motor starts, it drives the drive shaft to rotate. During rotation, the drive shaft, connected to the moving stage 31 via threads or other transmission methods, causes the moving stage 31 to move linearly along the second slide rail 29. The guide plate 32 is fixed to the top of the second slide rail 29, providing additional guidance and limiting for the movement of the moving stage 31. This ensures that the moving stage 31 does not deviate during movement, guaranteeing that the pin assembly can be transported to the target position for insertion.

[0031] One end of the movable platform 31 is sleeved on the guide plate 32. The movable platform 31 is provided with a receiving block 33. The receiving block 33 is provided with a rotating support platform 34. The rotating support platform 34 is provided with a second gripper 35 with an adjustable gripping center distance. The second gripper 35 is connected to a fourth cylinder 36. The fourth cylinder 36 is fixed on the rotating support platform 34.

[0032] Specifically, the movable platform 31 is fitted onto the guide plate 32 at one end, further enhancing its movement stability. The receiving block 33 is mounted on the movable platform 31, providing a mounting position for the rotating support platform 34. The rotating support platform 34 can rotate at a certain angle on the receiving block 33, allowing the second gripping claw 35 to adjust its gripping angle according to actual needs. The fourth cylinder 36 is fixed to the rotating support platform 34 and is used to control the opening and closing of the second gripping claw 35 and adjust the gripping center distance. By controlling the action of the fourth cylinder 36, the second gripping claw 35 can adapt to the gripping requirements of pin groups with different center distances, and after gripping the pin group, it can insert it into the corresponding terminal block slot, realizing automated pin insertion operation for variable center distance terminal blocks.

[0033] The specific usage and function of this embodiment are as follows: First, the connecting plate 11 connects the module to the external production system, and the mounting base 12 provides stable support for each component. With the assistance of the feeding instrument, the transport assembly is driven by the transport gear 17 (powered by a motor or cylinder) on the transport base 13 to move the pin assembly along the transport slot, and guide rollers guide the feeding. After the pin assembly is transported to its position, the cutting assembly begins operation. The first cylinder 21 on the support platform 18 pushes the cutting blade 22 up and down along the support column 19 to cut the pin assembly, ensuring that the pin length meets the requirements.

[0034] After cutting, the clamping assembly moves the sliding platform 24 to a suitable position via the electric push rod on the first slide rail 23. The rotating machine 25 adjusts the clamping angle, the second cylinder 26 locks the position, and the third cylinder 28 controls the first clamping claw 27 to clamp the pin assembly and transport it to the vicinity of the insertion assembly.

[0035] In the insertion assembly, the motor drives the transmission shaft to move the moving platform 31 along the second slide rail 29. The guide plate 32 ensures the moving accuracy. The rotating support platform 34 on the moving platform 31 drives the second gripper 35 to adjust its angle. The fourth cylinder 36 controls the opening and closing of the second gripper 35 and the gripping center distance, inserting the pin group into the terminal block slots with different center distances, thus completing the automated pin insertion operation of the variable center distance terminal block (in this device, the instruments that provide power, such as the first cylinder 21, the second cylinder 26, the third cylinder 28, and the fourth cylinder 36, are all controlled by external instruments).

[0036] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. It is obvious to those skilled in the art that this utility model is not limited to the details of the above exemplary embodiments.
