Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of connector shielding component manufacturing technology, and in particular to an automatic loading and unloading mechanism for cutting connector shielding components. Background Technology

[0002] Connector shielding is a critical component in electronic equipment used for electromagnetic interference (EMI) protection. It contains internal metal wires (copper wires), which are cut from metal wire. The metal wires are typically in coils, and before cutting, the coiled material (coiled metal wire) needs to be unwound and straightened to avoid excessive cutting errors that could affect product quality.

[0003] Most existing manufacturers use manual methods to transport straightened metal wires to cutting machines for cutting. After cutting, the wires are then manually unloaded. This processing method is not only inefficient, but also poses safety hazards when people are loading and unloading the wires. Utility Model Content

[0004] The present invention aims to solve at least one problem existing in the prior art. Therefore, the purpose of this invention is to provide an automatic loading and unloading mechanism for cutting connector shielding components.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model proposes: An automatic loading and unloading mechanism for cutting connector shielding components includes: A frame, on which guide rollers are provided; An automatic feeding assembly includes a linear module mounted on a frame and a clamping mechanism mounted on a slide table of the linear module for clamping metal wire. The linear module can drive the clamping mechanism and the metal wire clamped by the clamping mechanism to move horizontally, thereby achieving the purpose of automatic feeding of metal wire; and An automatic feeding assembly includes a feeding port on the frame and an inclined feeding plate located at the bottom of the frame and below the feeding port. The cut metal wire falls from the feeding port onto the inclined feeding plate by its own weight, thereby achieving the purpose of automatic feeding of the metal wire.

[0006] Furthermore, the clamping mechanism includes a slide rail disposed on the slide table, two sliders disposed on the slide rail and which can face each other or move away from each other, a clamping block disposed on the sliders, and a driving mechanism for driving the two sliders to face each other or move away from each other.

[0007] Furthermore, the driving mechanism includes a first driving device disposed on the slide table, a first rack disposed on one of the sliders, a gear rotatably disposed on the slide table, and a second rack disposed on the other slider. The output shaft of the first driving device is connected to one of the sliders, and the first rack and the second rack are located on both sides of the gear and mesh with the gear.

[0008] Furthermore, the inner wall of the clamping block is provided with a wavy pattern.

[0009] Furthermore, the automatic feeding assembly also includes an auxiliary feeding mechanism, which includes a second drive device disposed at the bottom of the frame and a support plate disposed on the output shaft of the second drive device. The support plate has an upward opening, and the opening is U-shaped.

[0010] Furthermore, the auxiliary feeding mechanism is provided in two sets, and is located on both sides of the inclined feeding plate.

[0011] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: This invention includes an automatic feeding component, comprising a linear module mounted on a frame and a clamping mechanism mounted on a slide table for clamping metal wire. The linear module drives the clamping mechanism and the clamped metal wire to move horizontally, thus achieving automatic feeding of the metal wire. It also includes an automatic unloading component, comprising a discharge port mounted on the frame and an inclined unloading plate located at the bottom of the frame and below the discharge port. The cut metal wire falls from the discharge port onto the inclined unloading plate under its own weight, thus achieving automatic unloading of the metal wire. The automatic feeding and unloading components increase the level of automation, significantly increase work efficiency, reduce the labor intensity of workers, and lower the risk of communication between manual labor and the cutting device.

[0018] like Figure 1-5 As shown, the automatic loading and unloading mechanism for cutting connector shielding components according to one or more preferred embodiments of this application will be disclosed and described in the following description.

[0019] An automatic loading and unloading mechanism for cutting connector shielding components includes a frame 1, an automatic loading assembly, and an automatic unloading assembly. The frame 1 is equipped with guide rollers 15. The automatic loading assembly includes a linear module 2 mounted on the frame 1 and a clamping mechanism mounted on a slide 3 of the linear module 2 for clamping metal wire 17. The linear module 2 can drive the clamping mechanism and the clamped metal wire 17 to move horizontally, thus achieving automatic loading of the metal wire 17. The automatic unloading assembly includes a discharge port 11 mounted on the frame 1 and an inclined discharge plate 12 located at the bottom of the frame 1 and below the discharge port 11. After cutting, the metal wire 17 falls from the discharge port 11 onto the inclined discharge plate 12 by its own weight, thus achieving automatic unloading of the metal wire 17.

[0020] The automatic feeding and unloading components increase the level of automation, greatly improve work efficiency, reduce the labor intensity of workers, and reduce the danger of communication between manual labor and the cutting device 16.

[0021] Specifically, the clamping mechanism includes a slide rail 4 mounted on the slide table 3, two sliders 5 mounted on the slide rail 4 that can move towards or away from each other, clamping blocks 6 mounted on the sliders 5, and a drive mechanism for driving the two sliders 5 towards or away from each other. The clamping mechanism moves to a position close to the cutting device 16 via the linear module 2. The drive mechanism drives the two sliders 5 and the two clamping blocks 6 to move towards each other to clamp the metal wire 17. Subsequently, the clamping mechanism moves to a position away from the cutting device 16 under the action of the linear module 2. At this time, the metal wire 17 will be carried to the position away from the cutting device 16 by the clamping mechanism, thus enabling automatic feeding of the metal wire 17.

[0022] Specifically, the driving mechanism includes a first driving device 7 mounted on the slide table 3, a first rack 8 mounted on one of the sliders 5, a gear 9 rotatably mounted on the slide table 3, and a second rack 10 mounted on the other slider 5. The output shaft of the first driving device 7 is connected to one of the sliders 5. The first rack 8 and the second rack 10 are located on opposite sides of the gear 9 and mesh with it. When the driving mechanism pushes one of the sliders 5 to move, the first rack 8 also moves along with it. Under the action of the meshing of the first rack 8 and the gear 9, the gear 9 rotates. Since the second rack 10 also meshes with the gear 9 and is located on opposite sides of the gear 9, the second rack 10 will make a synchronous and opposite movement with the first rack 8. The other slider 5 will also move along with the second rack 10, thereby achieving synchronous and opposite movement of the two sliders 5, that is, realizing the opposite or backward movement of the clamping blocks 6, which facilitates clamping or releasing the metal wire 17. The synchronous linkage of the two sliders 5 is achieved by a single driving device, ensuring the clamping effect while saving energy and space.

[0023] It is worth mentioning that the bottom of the two sliders 5 is provided with a slot, which can be used for the passage of the rack and gear 9 to prevent the two sliders 5 from interfering with the rack and gear 9 when they approach each other.

[0024] Specifically, the inner wall of the clamping block 6 is provided with a wave-shaped pattern, which can significantly improve the coefficient of friction between the clamping block 6 and the metal wire 17.

[0025] Specifically, the automatic feeding assembly also includes an auxiliary feeding mechanism, which includes a second drive device 13 located at the bottom of the frame 1 and a support plate 14 located on the output shaft of the second drive device 13. When cutting the metal wire 17, the second drive device 13 drives the support plate 14 to move below the metal wire 17. After cutting, the metal wire 17 falls steadily onto the support plate 14, and then the second drive device 13 drives the support plate 14 and the metal wire 17 to descend together onto the inclined feeding plate 12 for feeding. This prevents the metal wire 17 from falling directly onto the inclined feeding plate and being damaged.

[0026] Specifically, the support plate 14 has an upward opening in a U-shape. After being cut, the metal wire 17 will fall into the U-shaped opening of the support plate 14. The U-shaped opening contains the metal wire 17 and prevents the metal wire 17 from falling off the support plate 14 during its downward movement.

[0027] Specifically, the auxiliary feeding mechanism is set in two sets, located on both sides of the inclined feeding plate 12, which can ensure the stability of the metal wire 17 during the downward movement process.

[0028] It is worth mentioning that when the metal wire 17 does not need to be transferred, the support plate 14 is located at the bottom of the feed port 11, so as not to interfere with the movement of the slide table 3.

[0029] In this embodiment, the linear module 2 is the linear module 2 of the lead screw slide 3.

[0030] In this embodiment, the first driving device 7 and the second driving device 13 are one of a cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder, or an electric push rod.

[0031] It should be noted that all standard parts used in this application can be purchased from the market, and irregular parts can be customized according to the description and drawings. The specific connection methods of each part adopt conventional methods such as bolts, rivets, and welding that are mature in the prior art. The machinery, parts and equipment adopt conventional models in the prior art. In addition, the circuit and air circuit connections adopt conventional connection methods in the prior art, which will not be described in detail here.

[0032] This utility model relates to an automatic loading and unloading mechanism for cutting connector shielding components. Its working principle is described in conjunction with the attached... Figure 5 illustrate: After uncoiling, the metal wire 17 is passed through the limiting hole and the guide roller 15 in sequence. The head of the metal wire 17 needs to extend 3-4cm. The linear module 2 drives the clamping mechanism to move to the head position of the metal wire 17. The two clamping plates move towards each other under the action of the driving mechanism to clamp the metal wire 17. Then, the linear module 2 drives the clamping mechanism and the metal wire 17 to move together to the end away from the cutting device 16. The cutting device 16 descends to cut the metal wire 17. The cut section is the desired product (metal wire). At the same time, the second drive device 13 drives the support plate 14 to rise to the bottom of the metal wire 17; after the cutting is completed, the two clamping plates move in opposite directions under the action of the drive mechanism to release the metal wire 17, and the product (metal wire) falls onto the support plate 14. The second drive device 13 drives the support plate 14 to descend and bring the product (metal wire) to the inclined feeding plate 12 for automatic feeding along the inclined feeding plate 12. At the same time, the linear module 2 drives the clamping mechanism to move to the head position of the metal wire 17 for the next cutting and feeding.

Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model.
