Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mechanical automated assembly equipment technology, and in particular to an end cap assembly centering calibrator. Background Technology

[0002] In the assembly and production process of various mechanical equipment, the end cap assembly is a key sealing and protective component. The installation quality of the end cap assembly directly determines the sealing performance and service life of the product. Therefore, before the end cap assembly is finally fixed and installed, it is necessary to ensure that the end cap assembly and the hole to be installed are in a highly accurate coaxial alignment state. At present, most of the end cap installation auxiliary equipment widely used in industrial production has basic position movement function, which drives the end cap assembly to approach the installation position through the drive mechanism.

[0003] However, in practical applications, it has been found that existing calibration equipment mostly uses cylinders or lead screws for vertical driving when adjusting the vertical position. Due to the motion characteristics of cylinders and the influence of mechanical clearance, this direct driving method is often difficult to accurately control the displacement when performing micron-level precision alignment, and the stability is poor when maintaining the position lock. It is easy for small vertical displacement deviations to occur during the push-in installation process. At the same time, existing equipment is difficult to efficiently integrate horizontal coarse adjustment, vertical fine adjustment and automatic push-in installation functions in a limited space, resulting in a loose overall structure and low alignment and calibration efficiency, which is difficult to meet the stringent requirements of modern production for high-precision assembly.

[0004] Therefore, this invention proposes an end cap assembly centering calibrator to address the shortcomings of existing technologies. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the problems in the existing end cap installation equipment, such as insufficient accuracy in vertical position adjustment and difficulty in efficiently integrating multi-dimensional position calibration and automatic propulsion installation functions in a limited space, resulting in limited assembly quality and efficiency, this utility model aims to provide an end cap assembly centering calibrator with an improved structure that can effectively solve the above problems.

[0006] This utility model provides an end cap assembly centering calibrator, including a table and a slider slidably connected to the inner wall of a groove formed in the top wall of the table. An outer frame is fixedly connected to the top wall of the slider, serving as the main load-bearing component and capable of moving above the table. A support rod is fixedly connected to the middle of the inner wall of the outer frame, and a displacement cylinder is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the support rod. A displacement rod is slidably connected to the inner wall of the displacement cylinder, and an electric push rod is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the displacement rod. The output end of the electric push rod is fixedly connected to the middle of the inner wall of the outer frame, and the electric push rod is used to drive the displacement rod to move horizontally. A limiting strip is fixedly connected to the middle of the shifting rod. A shifting column is slidably connected to the inner wall of the limiting strip. A moving rod is fixedly connected to the front side of the outer wall of the shifting column. A fixing plate is fixedly connected to the left side of the inner wall of the outer frame. A locking cylinder is fixedly connected to the right side of the outer wall of the fixing plate. The moving rod slides through the inner wall of the locking cylinder. The locking cylinder is used to limit the movement trajectory of the moving rod. A connecting plate is fixedly connected to the middle of the outer wall of the moving rod. The connecting plate is used to connect to the subsequent actuator. An electric push rod two is fixedly connected to the bottom of the outer wall of the outer frame. The electric push rod two is used to drive the entire outer frame to slide on the table.

[0007] Preferably, the outer wall of the connecting plate is fixedly connected to the rear side of the outer wall of the fixing frame. The fixing frame serves as the mounting base for the propulsion mechanism. The inner wall of the fixing frame has mounting holes. An electric push rod is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the mounting holes. A limit rod is fixedly connected to the middle of the fixing frame. The limit rod is used to provide guidance for the propulsion direction. The outer wall of the limit rod is slidably connected to the hole opened on the rear side of the inner wall of the front push frame. A gripper is fixedly connected to the front side of the outer wall of the front push frame by bolts.

[0008] Preferably, a hole is provided on the front side of the outer wall of the fixed frame, and a push rod is slidably connected to the inner wall of the hole. One end of the push rod is fixedly connected to the output end of the electric push rod three, and the other end of the push rod is fixedly connected to the front push frame. The electric push rod three can drive the front push frame and the gripper to move telescopically along the length direction of the limiting rod through the push rod, thereby realizing the feeding and installation of the end cap assembly.

[0009] Preferably, the inner wall of the limiting strip is provided with an inclined guide hole, and the displacement column slides through the inclined guide hole. When the electric push rod drives the displacement rod and the limiting strip to move horizontally, the inclined guide hole forces the displacement column to move in the vertical direction, thereby converting the horizontal driving force into a vertical lifting force.

[0010] Preferably, the moving rod is vertically inserted through the inner wall of the locking cylinder. The locking cylinder restricts the moving rod to reciprocate only in the vertical direction. The locking cylinder cooperates with the inclined guide hole to ensure that the moving rod can only perform high-precision vertical lifting and lowering adjustment without lateral deviation.

[0011] Preferably, the fixed end of the electric push rod two is fixedly connected to the outer frame, and the output end of the electric push rod two is fixedly connected to the side wall of the table. The electric push rod two drives the slider to move back and forth along the length of the slide groove by pushing and pulling the outer frame, thereby realizing the coarse position adjustment of the calibrator in the horizontal direction.

[0012] Preferably, there are multiple fixing plates, which are arranged at intervals along the inner wall of the outer frame. The locking cylinder is located between the multiple fixing plates and is fixedly connected to the fixing plates. The moving rod passes through the locking cylinder and extends to the upper and lower sides of the locking cylinder. The multi-point fixing structure improves the stability of the locking cylinder's support for the moving rod.

[0013] Preferably, the gripper is configured as a detachable structure. The gripper is connected to the front push frame by bolts. The gripper has a clamping part for clamping end caps of different sizes. The gripper is located above the table and its height position is adjusted with the moving rod. The detachable design allows the device to adapt to end cap assemblies of various specifications by replacing the gripper.

[0014] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0015] 1. This utility model solves the problem of low vertical adjustment accuracy or poor stability of end cap calibration equipment in the prior art by setting a limiting strip with an inclined guide hole on the displacement rod and cooperating with a moving rod that can only move vertically and is restricted by the locking cylinder. The mechanical conversion structure uses the inclined guide hole to force the displacement column and the moving rod to produce vertical displacement when the displacement rod moves horizontally. It achieves the effect of converting the horizontal driving force into a smooth and high-precision vertical fine adjustment motion, thereby significantly improving the centering accuracy of the end cap.

[0016] 2. This utility model solves the problem that existing end cap installation equipment cannot simultaneously meet the needs of multi-degree-of-freedom position adjustment and automated propulsion installation by setting a horizontally movable outer frame on the table slide groove to achieve horizontal coarse adjustment and integrating a vertical lifting structure and a propulsion mechanism inside the outer frame. It achieves the effect of being able to perform all-round position calibration of the end cap assembly and automatically complete precise docking installation, thereby improving production efficiency and assembly quality.

[0017] 3. This utility model solves the problem in the prior art that the front clamping component of the end cap installation device is fixed in a single way, making it difficult to adapt to end cap components of different specifications or shapes. By setting a detachable gripper at the front end of the front push frame and fixing it with bolts, it achieves the effect of quickly changing different types of grippers to adapt to end caps of various sizes according to actual production needs, thereby effectively improving the versatility and flexibility of the equipment.

[0027] Example:

[0028] Please refer to Figures 1 to 6 This utility model provides an end cap assembly centering calibrator, which aims to solve the problems in the prior art where end cap installation equipment is difficult to achieve high-precision horizontal and vertical bidirectional fine adjustment at the same time and lacks an integrated structural defect that can adapt to end caps of different sizes and perform smooth push-in installation.

[0029] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2The end cap assembly centering calibrator includes a tabletop 1 and a slider 211 slidably connected to the inner wall of a groove 4 formed in the top wall of the tabletop 1. The tabletop 1 serves as the base of the overall workbench to provide a stable support environment. The groove 4 extends along the length of the tabletop 1. An outer frame 210 is fixedly connected to the top wall of the slider 211. The outer frame 210 serves as the mounting carrier for the calibration mechanism 2 and can move horizontally above the tabletop 1. An electric push rod 212 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the outer wall of the outer frame 210. The fixed end of the electric push rod 212 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the outer frame 210, and the output end of the electric push rod 212 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the tabletop 1. 12 is used to drive the outer frame 210 to move the slider 211 back and forth along the length of the slide groove 4, thereby realizing the rough position adjustment of the entire calibration device in the horizontal direction. The moving rod 201, the fixed plate 202, the locking cylinder 203, the shifting rod 204, the limiting strip 205, the shifting cylinder 206, the support rod 207, the electric push rod 1 208, the shifting column 209, the outer frame 210, the slider 211, and the electric push rod 212 together constitute the calibration mechanism 2. The calibration mechanism 2 is installed on the table 1. By installing the calibration mechanism 2 on the top wall of the table 1, the equipment can move up, down, left, and right, thereby adjusting the position of the end cover and completing the calibration work.

[0030] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4A support rod 207 is fixedly connected to the middle of the inner wall of the outer frame 210. A displacement cylinder 206 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the support rod 207. A displacement rod 204 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the displacement cylinder 206. The displacement rod 204 can reciprocate horizontally along the inner wall of the displacement cylinder 206. An electric push rod 208 is fixedly connected to the right side of the outer wall of the displacement rod 204. The output end of the electric push rod 208 is fixedly connected to the middle of the inner wall of the outer frame 210. When the electric push rod 208 is running... The displacement rod 204 can slide on the inner wall of the displacement cylinder 206. A limit strip 205 is fixedly connected to the middle of the displacement rod 204. An inclined guide hole is opened on the inner wall of the limit strip 205. The displacement column 209 slides through the inclined guide hole. The front side of the outer wall of the displacement column 209 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the moving rod 201. Multiple fixing plates 202 are fixedly connected to the left side of the inner wall of the outer frame 210. The multiple fixing plates 202 are perpendicular to the inner wall of the outer frame 210. Arranged at intervals, a locking cylinder 203 is fixedly connected to the right side of the outer wall of the fixing plate 202. The locking cylinder 203 is located between the fixing plates 202 and is fixedly connected to the fixing plates 202. The moving rod 201 is vertically inserted through the inner wall of the locking cylinder 203 and extends to the upper and lower sides of the locking cylinder 203. The locking cylinder 203 restricts the moving rod 201 to reciprocate only in the vertical direction. When the electric push rod 208 pushes and pulls the shift rod 204 to move horizontally, the limiting strip 205 fixed on the shift rod 204 moves horizontally accordingly. Since the shifting column 209 is inserted into the inclined guide hole of the limiting strip 205 and is restricted by the vertical guidance of the locking cylinder 203 on the moving rod 201, the shifting column 209 is forced to produce a vertical displacement along the inclined path, thereby driving the moving rod 201 to perform a high-precision vertical lifting and lowering movement in the locking cylinder 203. This mechanical structure that converts horizontal drive into vertical fine adjustment ensures the high stability and accuracy of the end cap position adjustment.

[0031] As a preferred embodiment, to achieve smooth installation of the end cap assembly, please refer to... Figure 5 and Figure 6The electric push rod 301, fixed frame 302, limiting rod 303, push rod 304, front push frame 305, and gripper 306 together constitute the push mechanism 3. A connecting plate 5 is fixedly connected to the middle of the outer wall of the moving rod 201. The outer wall of the connecting plate 5 is fixedly connected to the rear side of the outer wall of the fixed frame 302. An installation hole is opened on the inner wall of the fixed frame 302, and the electric push rod 301 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the installation hole. Multiple limiting rods 303 are fixedly connected to the middle of the fixed frame 302, and the outer walls of the limiting rods 303 are slidably connected to the rear side of the inner wall of the front push frame 305. Inside the opening, a gripper 306 is fixedly connected to the front side of the outer wall of the front pusher 305 by bolts. An opening is provided on the front side of the outer wall of the fixed frame 302. A push rod 304 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the opening on the front side of the outer wall of the fixed frame 302. One end of the push rod 304 is fixedly connected to the output end of the electric push rod 301, and the other end of the push rod 304 is fixedly connected to the front pusher 305. The electric push rod 301 is used to drive the push rod 304 and the front pusher 305 to move along the length direction of the limit rod 303, thereby driving the gripper 306 to extend or retract.

[0032] As another preferred embodiment, in order to accommodate end cap assemblies of different sizes and improve the applicability of the equipment, the gripper 306 is configured as a detachable structure. The gripper 306 is connected to the front push frame 305 by bolts. The gripper 306 has a clamping part for clamping end caps of different sizes. The gripper 306 is located above the table 1 and its height position is adjusted with the moving rod 201.

[0033] Working principle: When using the end cap assembly to center the calibrator, the electric push rod 212 is activated. The electric push rod 212 pushes and pulls the outer frame 210. The outer frame 210 drives the slider 211 to slide on the inner wall of the groove 4 opened on the top wall of the table 1, thereby driving the entire calibration mechanism 2 and the propulsion mechanism 3 to make a rough position adjustment in the horizontal direction. The electric push rod 208 is activated. The electric push rod 208 drives the displacement rod 204 to slide horizontally on the inner wall of the displacement cylinder 206. The displacement rod 204 drives the limiting strip 205 to move horizontally in sync. As the displacement column 209 slides through the inclined guide hole opened in the inner wall of the limiting strip 205, and the moving rod 201 is restricted by the locking cylinder 203 to only move in the vertical direction, the horizontal movement of the limiting strip 205 forces the displacement column 209 to move vertically up and down along the trajectory of the inclined guide hole. The displacement column 209 drives the moving rod 201 to slide up and down in the inner wall of the locking cylinder 203. The moving rod 201 drives the connecting plate 5 and the propulsion mechanism 3 to make precise fine adjustments to the vertical height, thereby completing the centering and calibration of the end cap assembly.

[0034] After the centering and calibration are completed, the electric push rod 301 is activated. The electric push rod 301 pushes the push rod 304. The push rod 304 drives the front push frame 305 to move forward smoothly along the limit rod 303 in the middle of the fixed frame 302. The front push frame 305 drives the gripper 306 fixed on the front side to move forward. The gripper 306 accurately installs the end cap assembly to the predetermined position, completing the automated installation of the end cap assembly.
