Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of fuse processing equipment technology, and specifically to a fuse special-shaped terminal cap assembly mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] During the assembly of the fuse's irregularly shaped terminal cap and the ceramic tube, the orientation of the cap needs to be limited to ensure the product yield of the fuse. In some scenarios, the cap is simply transported via a vibratory feeder without proper posture correction, making it easy for the cap to be improperly installed. Furthermore, during the assembly process, the pressure required for assembly can easily lead to issues such as incomplete clamping, uneven clamping force, or damage to the cap.

[0003] Therefore, this application studies a fuse irregular terminal cap assembly mechanism, which enables better assembly of irregular terminal caps and ensures product yield. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to enable better assembly of irregularly shaped terminal caps and ensure product yield, this application provides an assembly mechanism for irregularly shaped fuse terminal caps.

[0005] This application provides a fuse irregular terminal cap assembly mechanism, which adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A fuse shaped terminal cap assembly mechanism includes a vibration component, a transfer component, a cap correction component, and an assembly component. The vibration component vibrates the cap to make its opening face upwards. The transfer component clamps the cap from the vibration component to the cap correction component. The cap correction component includes a correction pad, a first driving member, and a correction clamp. The correction clamp has a receiving cavity for accommodating the shaped portion of the cap. The transfer component clamps the cap onto the correction pad, and the first driving member drives the correction clamp to abut against the periphery of the cap, correcting the shaped portion of the cap into the receiving cavity. The transfer component transfers the corrected cap to the assembly component, and the assembly component assembles the cap with a ceramic tube.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, when the outer cap correction component abuts against the periphery of the outer cap before assembly, the irregular part of the outer cap is abutted against by the side wall of the receiving cavity, and the irregular part of the outer cap is placed in the receiving cavity, thereby realizing the circumferential positioning and posture correction of the outer cap. This effectively solves the problems of improper installation, false clamping and uneven force caused by the incorrect posture of the outer cap, thus ensuring the product yield.

[0008] Optionally, the vibration assembly includes a hopper and a flexible vibrating plate. The hopper feeds the outer cap onto the flexible vibrating plate, and the flexible vibrating plate vibrates the outer cap so that the opening of the outer cap faces upward.

[0009] Optionally, it also includes a CCD vision component that captures the outer cap inside the flexible vibrating disk, causing the transfer component to transfer the outer cap with the opening facing upwards.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the orientation of the outer cap in the flexible vibratory feeder can be accurately identified and positioned, ensuring that the transfer component only picks up the outer cap that meets the requirements, and further improving the success rate of calibration and assembly.

[0011] Optionally, the transfer assembly includes a suction element for suctioning the outer cap.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, flexible gripping of the outer cap can be achieved, further avoiding mechanical damage to the outer cap, and the outer cap can be easily picked up in the vibration component, avoiding interference from other outer caps.

[0013] Optionally, the assembly includes a second driving member and a pressing assembly. The pressing assembly includes a third driving member and a pressing member. The pressing member has a groove, and an outer cap is placed in the groove. The third driving member drives the pressing member to move horizontally to the corresponding position of the ceramic tube. The second driving member drives the pressing assembly to press the outer cap onto the end of the ceramic tube vertically.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the corrected outer cap is placed through the groove, and the outer cap is pressed into place after being aligned with the end position of the ceramic tube by the cooperation of the second and third driving components.

[0015] Optionally, the pressing member is slidably disposed in the vertical direction, and the pressing member is fitted with an elastic member. When the pressing assembly presses the outer cap, the pressing member compresses the elastic member.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, buffer pressure can be provided during the pressing process to avoid damage to the fragile outer cap or ceramic tube due to rigid impact, thereby further ensuring product yield.

[0017] Optionally, the pressing assembly further includes a fourth driving member and a positioning member, wherein the fourth driving member drives the positioning member to abut and position itself against the irregular part of the outer cap.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the positioning component further positions and fixes the outer cap, preventing the outer cap from deflecting during the pressing process, thereby further improving the accuracy of the outer cap pressing.

[0019] Optionally, a pressure sensor is also included, which abuts against the end of the ceramic tube. When the assembly assembly presses in the outer cap, the ceramic tube abuts against the pressure sensor, and the pressure sensor senses the pressure during the pressing process.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, the pressure value during the pressing process can be monitored and fed back in real time, thereby achieving precise control of the pressing force, avoiding poor assembly due to insufficient pressure or product damage due to excessive pressure, and ensuring the consistency of assembly quality.

[0021] Optionally, it also includes a ceramic tube alignment assembly, which includes a fifth driving member and an alignment head. The fifth driving member drives the alignment head to push the ceramic tube so that the height of the ceramic tube is consistent.

[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, the fifth driving component drives the correction head to unify the height position of the ceramic tube, eliminating the assembly error caused by the inconsistent initial position of the ceramic tube, and providing a stable benchmark for the precise pressing of the outer cap.

[0023] In summary, this application includes the following beneficial technical effects:

[0024] 1. Before assembly, when the outer cap correction component abuts against the periphery of the outer cap, the irregular part of the outer cap is abutted against by the side wall of the receiving cavity, and the irregular part of the outer cap is placed in the receiving cavity, realizing the circumferential positioning and posture correction of the outer cap. This effectively solves the problems of improper installation, false clamping and uneven force caused by the incorrect posture of the outer cap, thereby ensuring the product yield.

[0025] 2. The corrected outer cap is placed through the groove, and the outer cap is pressed into place after the third and fourth driving components work together to align with the end position of the ceramic tube.

[0026] 3. The positioning component further positions and fixes the outer cap to prevent it from deflecting during the pressing process, thereby further improving the accuracy of the outer cap pressing. Attached Figure Description

[0035] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-5 This application will be described in further detail.

[0036] This application discloses an assembly mechanism for a fuse irregular terminal cap. (Refer to...) Figure 1 The fuse shaped terminal cap assembly mechanism includes a vibration component 1, a transfer component 2, a cap correction component 3, and an assembly component 4. The vibration component 1 vibrates the cap to make the cap opening face upwards. In some embodiments, the vibration component 1 includes a feeding hopper 11 and a flexible vibrating plate 12. The cap is placed in the feeding hopper 11 and fed to the flexible vibrating plate 12 through the feeding hopper 11. The flexible vibrating plate 12 vibrates the cap to make the cap opening face upwards, thus ensuring the correct installation orientation of the cap.

[0037] In some embodiments, a CCD vision component (not shown in the figure) is also included. The CCD vision component captures the outer cap inside the flexible vibrating disk 12, causing the transfer component 2 to transfer the outer cap with the opening facing upwards. The CCD vision component enables the transfer component 2 to transfer the outer cap in the correct direction, allowing subsequent assembly work to be performed accurately. The specific structure of the CCD vision component is prior art and will not be described in detail here.

[0038] The transfer component 2 clamps the outer cap inside the vibration component 1 to the outer cap correction component 3.

[0039] Reference Figure 2In some embodiments, the transfer assembly includes a suction member 21 for suctioning the outer cap. Specifically, the suction member 21 is a vacuum nozzle, which vacuum-adsorbs the outer cap, ensuring stable adsorption while avoiding mechanical damage to the cap and interference between caps or between the cap and the assembly. The transfer assembly 2 also includes a robot 22, on which the suction member 21 is mounted. The robot 22 drives the suction assembly to rotate circumferentially and move vertically and horizontally. The specific structure of the robot 22 is prior art and will not be described in detail here.

[0040] Reference Figure 3 The outer cap correction assembly 3 includes a correction pad 31, a first driving member 32, and a correction clamp 33. The correction clamp 33 has a receiving cavity 34 for accommodating the irregular part of the outer cap. The transfer assembly 2 clamps the outer cap onto the correction pad 31, which supports the outer cap. The first driving member 32 drives the correction clamp 33 to abut against the periphery of the outer cap, correcting the irregular part of the outer cap into the receiving cavity 34. The first driving member 32 is a clamping cylinder, which drives the correction clamp 33 to abut against the periphery of the outer cap and pushes the irregular part of the outer cap through the side wall of the receiving cavity 34, so that the irregular part of the outer cap is located in the receiving cavity 34, thereby correcting the posture and orientation of the outer cap. The transfer assembly 2 transfers the corrected outer cap to the assembly assembly 4, which assembles the outer cap with the ceramic tube.

[0041] Refer again Figure 1 In some embodiments, the assembly component 4 includes a second driving member 41 and a pressing component 42. The second driving member 41 drives the pressing component 42 to press the outer cap onto the end of the ceramic tube in a vertical direction. The second driving member 41 is an electric cylinder, which drives the pressing component 42 to move in a vertical direction, thereby approaching or moving away from the ceramic tube. When approaching the ceramic tube, the pressing component 42 presses the outer cap onto the end of the ceramic tube.

[0042] Reference Figure 4 In some embodiments, the pressing assembly 42 includes a third driving member 421 and a pressing member 422. The pressing member 422 has a groove 423, and the outer cap is placed in the groove 423. The third driving member 421 drives the pressing member 422 to move horizontally to the corresponding position of the ceramic tube. In this embodiment, the third driving member 421 is a cylinder. The pressing assembly 42 also includes a mounting base 424 and a sliding base 425. The mounting base 424 is provided with a cross roller guide rail. The sliding base 425 is slidably mounted on the mounting base 424 via the cross roller guide rail. The pressing member 422 is mounted on the sliding base 425. The output end of the second driving member 41 is mounted on the mounting base 424.

[0043] In some embodiments, the pressing assembly 42 further includes a fourth driving member 429 and a positioning member 430. The fourth driving member 429 drives the positioning member 430 to abut against and position itself on the irregular portion of the outer cap. The fourth driving member 429 is a clamping cylinder. The clamping cylinder drives the positioning member 430 to abut against and position the irregular portion of the outer cap, while simultaneously fixing the outer cap. This prevents the outer cap from rotating during pressing, allowing for more accurate assembly of the outer cap.

[0044] Reference Figure 5 In some embodiments, the pressing member 422 is slidably disposed in the vertical direction. In this embodiment, the sliding seat 425 has a flat hole, and the pressing member 422 is slidably disposed in the flat hole, so as to prevent the pressing member 422 from rotating and to move stably in the vertical direction. The pressing member 422 is fitted with an elastic member 426, which is a spring. When the pressing assembly 42 presses the outer cap, the pressing member 422 compresses the elastic member 426. The pressing assembly 42 also includes a retaining ring 427. A through groove is provided in the mounting base 424. The pressing member 422 slides along the sliding base 425 with one end extending into the through groove. The retaining ring 427 is fixed within the through groove, and the end of the pressing member 422 slides within the retaining ring 427. One end of the elastic member 426 is connected to the retaining ring 425 and the periphery of the pressing member 422, while the other end abuts against the retaining ring 427. This allows the pressing member 422 to compress the elastic member 426 when pressing the outer cap, providing a buffering force for the pressing and better protecting the outer cap and the ceramic tube. After pressing, the elastic member 426 returns to its original shape, enabling the pressing member 422 to reset. A guide rod 428 is connected to the end of the pressing member 422. The guide rod 428 is slidably connected to the retaining ring 427, allowing the pressing member 422 to move up and down more stably.

[0045] In some embodiments, a pressure sensor 5 is also included. The pressure sensor 5 abuts against the end of the ceramic tube. When the assembly component 4 presses the outer cap, the ceramic tube abuts against the pressure sensor 5, and the pressure sensor 5 senses the pressure during the pressing process. When the pressing member 422 presses the outer cap and the ceramic tube upward, the other end of the ceramic tube abuts against the pressure sensor 5. This allows for real-time monitoring and feedback of the pressure value during the pressing process, thereby achieving precise control of the pressing force. This avoids insecure assembly due to insufficient pressure or product damage due to excessive pressure, ensuring consistent assembly quality.

[0046] In some embodiments, a ceramic tube alignment assembly 6 is also included. The ceramic tube alignment assembly 6 includes a fifth driving member 61 and an alignment head 62. The fifth driving member 61 drives the alignment head 62 to push the ceramic tubes, ensuring a consistent height. The fifth driving member 61 is a telescopic cylinder, which drives the alignment head 62 to push the ceramic tubes downwards, ensuring that each ceramic tube has a consistent height, thus enabling more precise assembly of the outer cap. In this embodiment, the ceramic tube alignment assembly 6 is positioned one station above the assembly assembly 4. After the ceramic tube height is corrected, the ceramic tubes are conveyed to the assembly assembly 4 for assembly, avoiding interference between the components.

[0047] The implementation principle of the fuse irregular terminal outer cap assembly mechanism in this application embodiment is as follows: before assembly, when the outer cap correction component 3 abuts against the periphery of the outer cap, the irregular part of the outer cap is abutted against by the side wall of the receiving cavity 34, and the irregular part of the outer cap is located in the receiving cavity 34, thereby realizing the circumferential positioning and posture correction of the outer cap. This effectively solves the problems of improper installation, false clamping and uneven force caused by the incorrect posture of the outer cap, thereby ensuring the product yield.
