As shown in fig. 2 and 3, a first fixing groove for placing the elastic sleeve clamping strip 200 is formed at the top of the supporting table 110; the elastic colleting strip 200 is the main way to produce the elastic collets 220, and the elastic collets 220 processed by factories are mostly present in this way, so that the storage and transportation are convenient. The elastic jacket clamp strip 200 includes a pair of strip-shaped scrap edges 210, and a plurality of elastic jacket clamps 220 disposed across the pair of scrap edges 210; each elastic jacket clip 220 is disposed along the width direction of the elastic jacket clip strip 200, and a plurality of elastic jacket clips 220 are disposed at intervals along the length direction of the elastic jacket clip strip 200. Existing manual assembly methods require removal of the elastic collet 220 from the elastic collet strip 200 and subsequent manipulation. The automatic assembly mechanism 130 of the present embodiment can directly complete the assembly of the elastic collet 220 and the contact 300 (as shown in fig. 4) without disassembly. During assembly, the elastic jacket clamp strip 200 is disposed along the length of the first fixed slot and is slidable along the length of the first fixed slot to sequentially align the individual elastic jacket clamps 220 to the processing station.
The belt transmission mechanism 120 is used for driving the elastic sleeve belt 200 to slide along the length direction of the first fixing groove; the elastic jacket clamp automatic assembly machine 100 is provided with an assembly area and a blanking area in sequence along the moving direction of the elastic jacket clamp strip 200.
The automatic assembly mechanism 130 is located in the assembly area and includes a first clamping device 131 for clamping the contact 300 and threading the contact 300 into the elastic collet 220. The blanking mechanism 140 is located in the blanking area and includes a shearing device 141 for shearing the elastic jacket clamp strip 200 along the width direction thereof.
The PLC control mechanism 150 is electrically connected to the belt driving mechanism 120, the automatic assembling mechanism 130, and the discharging mechanism 140, respectively. Under the control of the PLC control mechanism 150, the material belt transmission mechanism 120 drives the elastic jacket clamp belt 200 to slide along the first fixing groove, so that the plurality of elastic jacket clamps 220 on the elastic jacket clamp belt 200 sequentially pass through the assembly area and the blanking area. Upon entering the assembly zone, the PLC control mechanism 150 operates the first clamping device 131 to thread the contact 300 into the elastic collet 220 to complete the assembly. Upon entering the blanking zone, the PLC control mechanism 150 operates the shearing device 141 to sever the scrap 210 of the elastic sleeve clamp strip 200, completing the sectioning and collection of the product.
Further, as shown in fig. 1 and 5, the first clamping device 131 includes a first clamping member 1311 for clamping the contact member 300, and a first driving mechanism for driving the first clamping member 1311 to move along the axial direction of the elastic collet 220; the contact 300 may be threaded into the elastic collet 220 in the axial direction of the elastic collet 220 under the driving of the first driving mechanism, thereby completing the assembly of the elastic collet 220 and the contact 300.
In addition, the automatic assembly mechanism 130 further includes a second clamping device 132, and the second clamping device 132 is located above the first clamping device 131 and the support table 110; the second clamping device 132 includes a second clamping member 1321 for clamping the guide 400, a second driving mechanism for driving the second clamping member 1321 to move in the vertical direction, and a third driving mechanism for driving the second clamping member 1321 to move in the axial direction of the elastic collet 220; the guide 400 may be dropped between the contact 300 and the elastic collet 220 under the driving of the second driving mechanism, and then pass through the elastic collet 220 along with the contact 300 under the driving of the first driving mechanism. The guide 400 may expand the inner diameter of the elastic collet 220 to allow the contact 300 to be more precisely inserted into the elastic collet 220. After passing through the elastic collet 220, the guide 400 is lifted by the second driving mechanism and then reset by the third driving mechanism.
The first driving mechanism, the second driving mechanism and the third driving mechanism are all electrically connected with the PLC control mechanism 150. Therefore, the entire assembly operation described above can be automatically completed under the control of the PLC control mechanism 150, greatly improving the efficiency and accuracy of assembly.
Optionally, the width of the first fixing groove is equal to the width of the elastic sleeve clamping strip 200, and a pair of scrap edges 210 are embedded in the first fixing groove and are abutted with the groove wall of the first fixing groove; the elastic jacket clip 220 protrudes from the first fixing groove. When the guide 400 and the contact 300 penetrate into the elastic collet 220, the groove wall of the first fixing groove can form a support for the elastic collet strip 200, limit the movement of the elastic collet strip 200 along the width direction thereof, and ensure the stability of the insertion process.
As shown in fig. 1 and 5, the first driving mechanism includes a first cylinder 1312, and a telescopic rod of the first cylinder 1312 is disposed along an axial direction of the elastic jacket clamp 220; the first clamping member 1311 is connected to the telescopic rod of the first cylinder 1312, and can be driven by the first cylinder 1312 to move, so as to drive the contact 300 to insert into the elastic collet 220. The second driving mechanism comprises a sliding block 1322 which is vertically arranged, a second air cylinder 1323 is arranged on the surface of the sliding block 1322, a telescopic rod of the second air cylinder 1323 is arranged along the vertical direction, and a second clamping piece 1321 is connected with the telescopic rod of the second air cylinder 1323; the second clamping member 1321 is movable up and down by the second air cylinder 1323. Meanwhile, the third driving mechanism includes a guide 1324 disposed along the axial direction of the elastic collet 220, and the sliding block 1322 is slidably engaged with the guide 1324; the third drive mechanism also includes an electric cylinder 1325 to drive a slide block 1322 to slide along a guide rail 1324. Under the cooperation of the second driving mechanism and the third driving mechanism, the cooperation of the guide member 400 and the contact member 300 and the resetting of the guide member 400 after passing through the elastic collet 220 can be realized, and the whole automatic assembly process is completed.
Further, as shown in fig. 5 and 6, the automatic assembling mechanism 130 further includes a third clamping device 133, where the third clamping device 133 is located at a side of the support table 110 away from the first clamping device 131; the third clamping device 133 includes a third clamping piece 1331 for clamping the elastic collet 220; and a fourth driving mechanism for driving the third clamping piece 1331 to move in the axial direction of the elastic collet 220. In this embodiment, the third clamping member 1331 is cylindrical as a whole, an insertion hole 1311a into which the elastic collet 220 is inserted is provided at one end of the third clamping member 1331 facing the elastic collet 220, and a first through groove 1311b through which the clamping portion 420 of the guide member 400 passes is provided on a hole wall of the insertion hole 1311 a; the third clamping piece 1331 can move along the axial direction of the elastic sleeve clamp 220 under the driving of the fourth driving mechanism, and is sleeved outside the elastic sleeve clamp 220. In actual use, after the elastic jacket clamp strip 200 moves to the processing station, the third clamping member 1331 is first sleeved outside the elastic jacket clamp 220, and then the guide member 400 and the contact member 300 are inserted. The third clamping piece 1331 not only can maintain the orientation of the elastic sleeve clamp 220 to enable the guide piece 400 and the contact piece 300 to be inserted smoothly, but also can protect the elastic sleeve clamp 220 from deformation after being extruded in the inserting process. Similarly, the fourth driving mechanism is electrically connected to the PLC control mechanism 150. The third clamping member 1331 is operated by the PLC control mechanism 150 to secure the elastic collet 220.
Alternatively, as shown in fig. 7, a flat surface 1311c for abutting against the upper surface of the trim 210 is provided at the bottom of the third clamp 1331, and a mating surface 1311d for abutting against the side surface of the trim 210 is provided at the end of the flat surface 1311c away from the elastic collet 220. When the third clamping piece 1331 is sleeved outside the elastic sleeve clamp 220, the flat surface 1311c can be just pressed on the scrap 210, so that the scrap 210 is prevented from being lifted by force in the installation process. At the same time, mating surface 1311d abuts the side of scrap 210, providing support to the entire elastic sleeve clamp strip 200 from sliding during installation.
The fourth driving mechanism comprises a third cylinder 1332, and a telescopic rod of the third cylinder 1332 is arranged along the axial direction of the elastic sleeve clamp 220; the third clamping piece 1331 is connected with a telescopic rod of the third air cylinder 1332, can move under the driving of the third air cylinder 1332 and is sleeved outside the elastic sleeve clamp 220.

The second fixing groove 1313 may fix the contact 300, prevent it from shaking during the process, ensure its insertion into the elastic collet 220 along the axis of the elastic collet 220, thereby improving the accuracy of assembly and avoiding damage to the elastic collet 220 caused by an angle error. The second fixing groove 1313 is provided with a stopper for abutting against an end of the contact 300 at an end remote from the support table 110. The stopper can support the contact 300 when the contact 300 is inserted into the elastic collet 220, so as to ensure the thrust to the contact 300 and smoothly complete the insertion process.
