Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of spring mounting technology, and in particular to a spring mounting system. Background Technology
[0002] In many fields, such as mechanical structural components, there are widespread assembly scenarios where springs need to be installed between two block-shaped objects. The core requirement of such assembly is to ensure that both ends of the spring precisely mate with the pre-set mounting positions (such as grooves, bosses, pin holes, or sidewalls) of the two block-shaped objects to achieve functions such as buffering, vibration reduction, and resetting. Currently, the above-mentioned spring assembly operations are mainly divided into two categories: manual installation and semi-automatic installation. Both have significant technical defects and are difficult to meet the requirements of modern production for efficiency, precision, and consistency.
[0003] The existing manual installation method has extremely low assembly efficiency and poor assembly accuracy, while the semi-automatic installation method still requires manual feeding or manual adjustment of the posture of the position to be installed, and the assembly efficiency is still not high.
[0004] Therefore, a spring mounting system is urgently needed to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0008] In some embodiments, the spring transplanting assembly includes: a first mounting base mounted on the second mounting plate; a first gripper mounted below the first mounting base; a second gripper slidably mounted below the first mounting base along the first direction; and a first drive member, throttle-connected to the second gripper, capable of driving the second gripper to move along the first direction to approach or move away from the first gripper.
[0009] In some embodiments, the spring ejection assembly includes: a second drive member mounted on the second mounting plate; an ejector member connected to the output shaft of the second drive member; the ejector member being at least partially disposed between the first gripper and the second gripper; and the second drive member being capable of driving the ejector member to move along the second direction.
[0010] In some embodiments, the mounting component separation assembly includes: a second mounting base mounted on the second mounting plate; a first separation member mounted below the second mounting base; a second separation member slidably mounted below the second mounting base along the first direction; and a third driving member, which is pultrusively connected to the second separation member and is capable of driving the second separation member to move along the first direction away from or closer to the first separation member.
[0011] In some embodiments, the feeding device includes: a feeding mounting frame for providing an installation position; a spring vibratory feeder mounted on the feeding mounting frame for adjusting the posture of the spring so that the spring can be conveyed by a pneumatic conveying assembly; the pneumatic conveying assembly is mounted on the feeding mounting frame; the pneumatic conveying assembly includes an airflow conveying pipe; one end of the airflow conveying pipe is connected to the discharge port of the spring vibratory feeder, and the other end is connected to the dispensing device.
[0012] In some embodiments, the material dispensing device includes: a material dispensing mounting frame for providing an installation position; a third mounting plate slidably mounted on the material dispensing mounting frame along a third direction; the third direction, the second direction, and the first direction are arranged at an angle to each other; a fourth driving member mounted on the material dispensing mounting frame and capable of driving the third mounting plate to move along the third direction; and a material picking member mounted on the third mounting plate, docking with the output end of the feeding device, and capable of receiving a spring from the feeding device.

[0017] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0018] This utility model provides a spring installation system. It includes a feeding device to transport springs to be installed, a distributing device to distribute springs, and a transplanting device. The transplanting device is structured as a spring transplanting assembly, a spring ejection assembly, and an installation component separation assembly, all capable of sliding in a first and a second direction. When spring installation is required, the spring transplanting assembly and the installation component separation assembly are moved along the first direction until they are in position (i.e., the spring transplanting assembly can grip the spring to be installed). Then, both are moved along the second direction, allowing the spring transplanting assembly to grip the spring to be installed simultaneously. The mounting component separation assembly separates two adjacent mounting components on the product assembly, ensuring correct installation position and proper spring installation. Then, the spring transfer assembly and mounting component separation assembly move first along the second direction and then along the first direction to achieve a reset. That is, the spring transfer assembly moves to directly above the installation location. At this point, the spring transfer assembly is moved along the second direction closer to the installation location. Then, the spring ejection assembly uses the spring ejection component to eject the spring to be installed from the spring transfer assembly along the second direction and insert it into the installation location, thus completing the spring installation. During this spring installation process, manual spring loading is unnecessary. Simultaneously, the posture of the installation location can be adjusted while the spring is being gripped (i.e., separating two adjacent mounting components), eliminating the need for manual adjustment and significantly improving spring installation efficiency and accuracy.

[0029] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present invention and not intended to limit it. Furthermore, it should be noted that, for ease of description, the accompanying drawings show only the parts relevant to the present invention, not the entire structure.
[0030] In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "connected," "linked," and "fixed" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.
[0031] In this invention, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, "above" or "below" the second feature can include direct contact between the first and second features, or contact between the first and second features through another feature between them. Furthermore, "above," "over," and "on top" of the second feature includes the first feature directly above or diagonally above the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is at a higher horizontal level than the second feature. "Below," "below," and "under" the second feature includes the first feature directly below or diagonally below the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is at a lower horizontal level than the second feature.
[0032] In the description of this embodiment, the terms "upper," "lower," "left," and "right," etc., refer to the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are used only for ease of description and simplification of operation, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model. In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are only used for distinction in description and have no special meaning.
[0033] Combination Figures 1 to 7 As shown, this embodiment provides a spring mounting system for mounting a spring 101 to a location to be mounted. The location to be mounted is between two adjacent mounting members 102 on the product assembly 10. That is, this spring mounting system is used to mount the spring 101 between two adjacent mounting members 102 on the product assembly 10. (In conjunction with...) Figures 2 to 5 As shown, the spring mounting system includes: a feeding device 1, a distributing device 2, a transplanting device 3, and a transplanting platform 4.
[0034] The aforementioned feeding device 1 is used to convey springs 101. The aforementioned dispensing device 2 is connected to the output end of the feeding device 1 and is capable of dispensing springs 101 (i.e., springs 101 from the feeding device 1). Figure 4 As shown, the transplanting device 3 includes: a transplanting mounting frame 31, a first mounting plate 32, a first driving assembly 33, a second mounting plate 34, a spring transplanting assembly 35, a spring ejection assembly 36, and a mounting component separation assembly 37.
[0035] The aforementioned transplanting mounting frame 31 provides an installation position. The transplanting mounting frame 31 is a frame structure formed by combining multiple mounting rods or mounting plates. The aforementioned first mounting plate 32 is slidably disposed on the transplanting mounting frame 31 along a first direction X1. Here, the first mounting plate 32 and the transplanting mounting frame 31 are slidably connected, for example, through a slide rail or slider structure. Exemplarily, the slide rail body is a long, rigid structure, detachably fixed to a preset mounting plane of the transplanting mounting frame 31 by countersunk bolts. The extension direction of the slide rail body is parallel to the first direction X1, and two parallel "V"-shaped grooves or arc-shaped rolling grooves are machined on the top surface of the slide rail. The groove width matches the diameter of the steel ball, typically 3mm to 5mm, to ensure smooth movement of the rolling element. The length of the slide rail is greater than the maximum sliding stroke of the first mounting plate 32, and limiting bosses are provided at both ends to prevent excessive sliding and subsequent detachment. The slider is a block-shaped structure (made of the same material as the slide rail body) and is fixed to the back of the first mounting plate 32 (facing the transplant mounting frame 31). The number of sliders is set to 2 to 4 depending on the length of the first mounting plate 32 and the load requirements (and the sliders are evenly spaced to ensure force balance). The bottom of the slider has a matching arc-shaped groove corresponding to the rolling groove of the slide rail body. Multiple rolling elements (such as steel balls) are embedded in the groove, with the steel balls making point contact with the groove wall, significantly reducing sliding friction. This configuration allows the first mounting plate 32 to slide along the first direction X1 onto the transplant mounting frame 31.
[0036] The aforementioned first drive assembly 33 is mounted on the transplanting mounting frame 31. This first drive assembly 33 can drive the first mounting plate 32 to move along the first direction X1. The first drive assembly 33 is, for example, a combination structure of a rotary motor and a ball screw drive. The rotary motor is mounted to the transplanting mounting frame 31 by bolts, and the ball screw assembly includes a screw shaft (extending along the first direction X1), a nut seat, and a support bearing seat. The rotary output shaft is connected to the screw shaft by a coupling, and the nut seat is fastened to the back of the first mounting plate 32 by bolts or other connecting parts. Thus, the rotation of the rotary motor drives the screw shaft to rotate, and through the engagement of the threads, it drives the nut seat to move along the first direction X1, thereby driving the first mounting plate 32 to move along the first direction X1. Of course, the aforementioned first drive assembly 33 can also be other structures, such as an electric push rod, a telescopic cylinder, etc. Those skilled in the art can flexibly configure it according to actual usage requirements; however, a complete list will not be provided here.
[0037] The second mounting plate 34 is slidably disposed on the first mounting plate 32 along the second direction X2. Here, the second direction X2 is set at an angle to the first direction X1. The sliding connection between the second mounting plate 34 and the first mounting plate 32 is achieved in the same way as the sliding connection between the first mounting plate 32 and the transplanting mounting frame 31, and can be set with reference to the description above, and will not be repeated here.
[0038] The aforementioned spring transfer assembly 35 is mounted on the second mounting plate 34. This spring transfer assembly 35 can grip the spring 101 that has been dispensed by the dispensing device 2 and move the spring 101 to a position directly opposite the installation location in the second direction X2. That is, the spring transfer assembly 35 can move the spring 101 directly above the gap between two adjacent mounting members 102 on the product assembly 10. Specifically, with the spring transfer assembly 35 positioned directly above the installation location as the initial state, firstly, the first mounting plate 32 moves along the first direction X1, causing the second mounting plate 34 and the spring transfer assembly 35 to move along the first direction X1 directly above the spring 101 to be clamped. Then, the second mounting plate 34 moves downward, causing the spring transfer assembly 35 to approach the spring 101 to be clamped. After the spring transfer assembly 35 clamps the spring 101, the second mounting plate 34 moves upward, causing the spring transfer assembly 35 to initially reset. Then, the first mounting plate 32 moves the second mounting plate 34 and the spring transfer assembly 35 along the first direction X1 for final reset, thereby enabling the spring transfer assembly 35 to move above the installation location, thus completing the subsequent installation of the spring 101.
[0039] The spring ejection assembly 36 is installed between the second mounting plate 34 and the spring transfer assembly 35. The spring ejection assembly 36 can eject the spring 101 held by the spring transfer assembly 35 along the second direction X2.
[0040] The aforementioned mounting component separation assembly 37 is mounted on the second mounting plate 34 and is spaced apart from the spring transfer assembly 35 in the first direction X1. When the spring transfer assembly 35 picks up the spring 101 that has been distributed by the distribution device 2, the mounting component separation assembly 37 can separate two adjacent mounting components 102 on the product assembly 10. Specifically, with the spring transfer assembly 35 positioned directly above the area to be installed (initially), the mounting component separation assembly 37 is not positioned directly above the area to be installed (i.e., directly above the gap between two adjacent mounting components 102 on the product assembly 10). First, the first mounting plate 32 moves along the first direction X1, causing the second mounting plate 34, the spring transfer assembly 35, and the mounting component separation assembly 37 to move along the first direction X1. The spring transfer assembly 35 moves directly above the spring 101 to be clamped, and the mounting component separation assembly 37 moves directly above the gap between two adjacent mounting components 102 on the product assembly 10. Then, the second mounting plate 34 moves downward, causing the spring transfer assembly 35 to approach the spring 101 to be clamped, and simultaneously causing the mounting component separation assembly 37 to approach the two adjacent mounting components 102 on the product assembly 10. At this point, the spring transfer assembly 35 clamps the spring 101. The mounting component separation assembly 37 separates the two mounting components 102. After the spring transfer assembly 35 clamps the spring 101 and the mounting component separation assembly 37 separates the mounting components 102, the second mounting plate 34 moves upward, causing the spring transfer assembly 35 and the mounting component separation assembly 37 to initially reset. Then, the first mounting plate 32 drives the second mounting plate 34, the spring transfer assembly 35, and the mounting component separation assembly 37 to move along the first direction X1 for final reset, thereby enabling the spring transfer assembly 35 to move above the part to be installed, thus completing the subsequent installation of the spring 101. It is easy to understand that the distance between the spring transfer assembly 35 and the mounting component separation assembly 37 in the first direction X1 should be the same as the distance between the spring transfer assembly 35 and the material distribution device 2 in the first direction X1. Those skilled in the art can make specific settings according to the actual use scenario, and no further limitations are made here.
[0041] The transplanting platform 4 is positioned below the transplanting device 3, and the product component 10 is positioned on the transplanting platform 4. In the second direction X2, the part to be installed can be directly opposite the spring transplanting assembly 35 or the mounting component separation assembly 37. That is, when the spring transplanting assembly 35 is installing the spring 101, the part to be installed is directly opposite the spring transplanting assembly 35; when the mounting component separation assembly 37 is separating the mounting component 102, the part to be installed is directly opposite the mounting component separation assembly 37. For details, please refer to the description above; it will not be repeated here.
[0042] Furthermore, it is easy to understand that those skilled in the art can flexibly adjust the relative positions of the feeding device 1, the distributing device 2, the transplanting device 3, and the transplanting platform 4 according to the actual working scenario, for example, by using... Figure 5 Taking the perspective shown as an example, the material distribution device 2 is located on the left side of the transplanting platform 4. However, in actual use, the material distribution device 2 can also be located on the right side or other sides of the transplanting platform 4. The relative positions of other devices can also be adapted to achieve the installation of the spring 101. Therefore, the specific relative positional relationship of the above devices is not limited here.
[0043] Therefore, the spring installation system provided in this embodiment includes a feeding device 1 to transport the spring 101 to be installed, a distributing device 2 to distribute the spring 101, and a transfer device 3. The transfer device 3 is structured to include a spring transfer assembly 35 that can slide along a first direction X1 and a second direction X2, a spring ejection assembly 36, and an installation component separation assembly 37. When spring 101 needs to be installed, the spring transfer assembly 35 and the installation component separation assembly 37 can be moved along the first direction X1 until they are in place (i.e., the spring transfer assembly 35 can clamp the spring 101 to be installed). Then, they are moved along the second direction X2 so that the spring transfer assembly 35 clamps the spring 101 to be installed. 1. Simultaneously, the mounting component separation assembly 37 separates two adjacent mounting components 102 on the product assembly 10, ensuring correct installation position and allowing the spring 101 to be installed in place. Then, the spring transfer assembly 35 and the mounting component separation assembly 37 move first along the second direction X2 and then along the first direction X1 to achieve a reset, that is, the spring transfer assembly 35 is moved directly above the part to be installed. At this time, the spring transfer assembly 35 is moved along the second direction X2, close to the part to be installed, and then the spring ejection assembly 36 is used to eject the spring 101 to be installed, which is held by the spring transfer assembly 35, along the second direction X2 and into the part to be installed. In this way, the installation of the spring 101 is achieved. During the above spring 101 installation process, there is no need for manual feeding of the spring 101. At the same time, the posture of the part to be installed can be adjusted simultaneously while the spring 101 is being held (that is, the two adjacent mounting components 102 are separated), eliminating the need for manual adjustment and greatly improving the installation efficiency and accuracy of the spring 101.
[0044] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5As shown, the spring transfer assembly 35 includes a first mounting base 351, a first gripper 352, a second gripper 353, and a first driving member. The first mounting base 351 is mounted on the second mounting plate 34. The first gripper 352 is mounted below the first mounting base 351, and the second gripper 353 is slidably mounted below the first mounting base 351 along a first direction X1. Here, the second gripper 353 and the first mounting base 351 are slidably connected, for example, through a groove or slider structure. The first driving member is drively connected to the second gripper 353. This first driving member is, for example, an electric push rod or a telescopic cylinder. The first driving member can drive the second gripper 353 to move along the first direction X1 to approach or move away from the first gripper 352, thus enabling the action of gripping the spring 101 to be installed. It is easy to understand that the arrangement of the first gripper 352 and the second gripper 353 can be interchanged. That is, the second gripper 353 is installed below the first mounting base 351, and the first gripper 352 is slidably installed below the first mounting base 351 along the first direction X1. The first driving member is connected to the first gripper 352 in a transmission manner, which can drive the first gripper 352 to move towards or away from the second gripper 353, so as to realize the action of gripping the spring 101 to be installed.
[0045] In some embodiments, the spring ejection assembly 36 includes a second drive member and an ejector member. The second drive member is mounted on the second mounting plate 34 and is, for example, an electric push rod or a telescopic cylinder. The ejector member is connected to the output shaft of the second drive member. The ejector member is at least partially disposed between the first gripper 352 and the second gripper 353 in the spring transfer assembly 35. The ejector member is, for example, an ejector rod or an ejector block. The second drive member can drive the ejector member to move along a second direction X2, thereby ejecting the spring 101 held by the first gripper 352 and the second gripper 353 of the spring transfer assembly 35 along the second direction X2.
[0046] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5As shown, the aforementioned mounting component separation assembly 37 includes: a second mounting base 371, a first separating member 372, a second separating member 373, and a third driving member. The second mounting base 371 is mounted on the second mounting plate 34. The first separating member 372 is mounted below the second mounting base 371, and the second separating member 373 is slidably mounted below the second mounting base 371 along a first direction X1. The first separating member 372 and the second separating member 373 can be, for example, rod-shaped or plate-shaped objects, as long as they can be simultaneously inserted along the second direction X2 between two adjacent mounting components 102 on the product assembly 10. The third driving member is drively connected to the second separating member 373. This third driving member is, for example, an electric push rod or a telescopic cylinder. The third driving member can drive the second separating member 373 to move along the aforementioned first direction X1 to move away from or towards the first separating member 372, thus enabling the separation of two adjacent mounting components 102 using the first separating member 372 and the second separating member 373.
[0047] It is easy to understand that the arrangement of the first separating member 372 and the second separating member 373 can be interchanged. That is, the second separating member 373 is installed below the second mounting base 371, the first separating member 372 is slidably installed below the second mounting base 371 along the first direction X1, and the third driving member is connected to the first separating member 372 in a transmission connection, which can drive the first separating member 372 to move towards or away from the second separating member 373. In this way, the action of separating the two adjacent mounting members 102 can be realized.
[0048] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 As shown, the feeding device 1 includes: a feeding mounting frame 11, a spring vibratory feeder 12, and a pneumatic conveying assembly. The feeding mounting frame 11 provides the mounting position. The spring vibratory feeder 12, mounted on the feeding mounting frame 11, is used to adjust the attitude of the spring 101 so that the spring 101 can be conveyed by the pneumatic conveying assembly. The specific structure and operating principle of the spring vibratory feeder 12 can be found in existing technology. Since the core improvement of this embodiment is not in the structure of the spring vibratory feeder 12, it will not be described in detail here. The pneumatic conveying assembly is mounted on the feeding mounting frame 11. The pneumatic conveying assembly includes an airflow conveying pipe, one end of which is connected to the outlet of the spring vibratory feeder 12, and the other end is connected to the distributing device 2. The specific structure and operating principle of the pneumatic conveying assembly can be found in existing technology. Since the core improvement of this embodiment is not in the structure of the pneumatic conveying assembly, it will not be described in detail here.
[0049] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3As shown, the material distribution device 2 includes a material distribution mounting frame 21, a third mounting plate 22, and a fourth driving member 23. The material distribution mounting frame 21 provides the mounting position. The third mounting plate 22 is slidably mounted on the material distribution mounting frame 21 along a third direction X3. Here, the third direction X3, the second direction X2, and the first direction X1 are arranged at an angle to each other, for example, 90°. The fourth driving member 23 is mounted on the material distribution mounting frame 21 and can drive the third mounting plate 22 to move along the third direction X3. This fourth driving member 23 is an electric push rod or a telescopic cylinder. The material receiving member is mounted on the third mounting plate 22 and connects to the output end of the feeding device 1, and can receive the spring 101 from the feeding device 1. When the spring 101 from the feeding device 1 falls onto the picking component, the fourth driving component 23 drives the third mounting plate 22 to move along the third direction X3, causing the picking component to move along the third direction X3. This allows the picking component to approach the spring transfer assembly 35, facilitating the spring transfer assembly 35 to pick up the spring 101. The structure of the above-mentioned material distribution device 2 can also be configured with other structures based on existing technology, as long as the material distribution function can be achieved. Further details are omitted here.
[0050] In some embodiments, combined with Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown, the transplanting platform 4 includes a platform mounting frame 41, a tabletop 42, and a lifting assembly 43. The platform mounting frame 41 provides the installation position. The tabletop 42 is mounted above the platform mounting frame 41. The lifting assembly 43 is mounted on the platform mounting frame 41 and located below the tabletop 42. The lifting assembly 43 is connected to the tabletop 42 and can drive the tabletop 42 to perform a lifting action. The lifting assembly 43 can be, for example, an electric push rod assembly or a telescopic cylinder assembly. With this configuration, the lifting action of the lifting assembly 43 shortens the distance between the product assembly 10, the spring transplanting assembly 35, and the mounting component separation assembly 37, facilitating the installation of the spring 101 and the separation of adjacent mounting components 102.
[0051] In some embodiments, the spring mounting system further includes a loading platform, one side of which is connected to the transfer platform 4. The loading platform is used to place the assembled product component 10. Alternatively, the loading platform can provide a workspace for workers to assemble the product component 10. It is readily understood that the loading platform and the transfer platform 4 can also be equipped with a conveyor belt assembly to facilitate the transport of the assembled product component 10 to the transfer platform 4 for spring 101 installation.
[0052] In some embodiments, the spring mounting system further includes a camera recognition component 5. This camera recognition component 5 is positioned directly opposite the loading platform on the third direction X3. The camera recognition component 5 can detect the orientation of the assembled product component 10 on the loading platform, that is, detect whether the assembled product component 10 is tilted, facilitating the subsequent installation of the spring 101. The structure and principle of the camera recognition component 5 can be set with reference to the image recognition principles in the prior art, and will not be described in detail here.
[0053] In some embodiments, the spring mounting system further includes a storage rack disposed on the side of the loading platform away from the transplanting platform 4, for storing components that make up the product assembly 10.
