[0008] Furthermore, the motor and the feed motor are synchronously controlled by the controller to ensure that the insertion pin and the feeding action are coordinated.

[0009] Furthermore, the push plate is fixedly connected to the moving block, and when the cam rotates, it pushes the moving block to move linearly, thereby achieving precise insertion of the ejector pin.

[0014] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0015] Please see Figure 1-5This utility model provides a technical solution: an automatic pin insertion mechanism for connectors. In connector assembly and processing, the traditional splicing of pins and connectors is not automated enough and has low splicing efficiency. Specifically, there is a feeding rail 6, which is existing known technology and will not be described in detail here. Specifically, it includes a servo motor 1, the output end of which is fixedly connected to a threaded rod 2, and a slider 3 is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 2. A cylinder 4 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the slider 3, and the output end of the cylinder 4 is connected to a clamping plate 5. The clamping plate 5 is located inside the feeding rail 6, clamping multiple connectors in the clamping plate 5. The servo motor 1 moves the slider 3 to a preset position, moving the position of the corresponding pin of each connector. A pin insertion mechanism is provided at the outer end of the feeding rail 6. The pin insertion mechanism pushes the pins on the feeding rail 6 into the connector to achieve assembly. Multiple connectors can be assembled in one transport, improving assembly efficiency.

[0016] The pin insertion mechanism includes a fixed plate 11, with a groove 12 between the two fixed plates 11. A movable block 13 is arranged between the fixed plates 11, and slide bars 14 are fixed on both sides of the movable block 13. The slide bars 14 are slidably matched with the groove 12. A push plate 15 is fixed at the end of the movable block 13. A limit plate 7 is fixed at the upper end of the feeding rail 6. The arranged pins are placed between the limit plate 7 and the feeding rail 6. The push plate 15 pushes the pins into the connector and fixes them in place. A motor 17 is fixedly connected to the outer end of the fixed plate 11. The output end of the motor 17 passes through the fixed plate 11, and a cam 18 is fixedly connected to its end. The cam 18 abuts against the tail end of the movable block 13. The rotation of the cam 18 pushes the movable block 13 forward, thereby pushing the pins into the connector. A tension spring 16 is connected between the movable block 13 and the fixed plate 11. The tension spring 16 provides a reaction force, which, in conjunction with the rotation of the cam 18, enables the movable block 13 to reciprocate.

[0017] A motor 9 is fixed on the outside of the feeding rail 6. A turntable 10 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 9. Several equally spaced protrusions are connected around the edge of the turntable 10. The protrusions will be locked in the gap between the ejector pins. By rotating the turntable 10, the protrusions will be driven to rotate synchronously. Thus, by means of the locking action between the protrusions and the gap, the ejector pins are moved forward, thereby achieving the conveying effect. Both the motor 9 and the motor 17 are controlled by the controller to provide a degree of cooperation.
