Abstract

(57) [Summary] [Structure] In a button assembly device that cuts a button group of buttons such as a telephone set that is collectively molded and inserts individual buttons into an assembly target, A cutting part 25 for cutting, an inserting part 27 for inserting the cut button into an assembly, and a large number of the cut individual buttons are temporarily held so that the intervals between the buttons before cutting can be adjusted by the assembling of the inserting part. And a holding portion 26 having a mechanism for changing the distance between the buttons of the product. [Effect] Since a plurality of buttons are carried out as a series of assembling operations of cutting and inserting, an insertion error in the work process is eliminated, and the work is simplified.

Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a button assembling apparatus including a step of cutting a button of a telephone or the like and a step of inserting the button into an assembly target.

[0002]

[Prior Art]

 As shown in FIGS. 5 (a) and 5 (b), a conventional button assembly device such as a telephone set has a pitch A between the button units 22 of the collectively formed button group 20 and between the button units 22A of the assembly target 21. When the pitch B is different, the button unit 22 is cut from the frame 23 with a nipper or the like and inserted into the assembly target 21 one by one.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 This conventional button assembly device has a drawback that it takes a lot of time because the operation of cutting and inserting the button unit is done manually. There was also the drawback that it was easy to make an insertion error when there were several types of buttons.

[0004]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The button assembling device of the present invention cuts a button group of buttons such as a telephone set that is collectively molded, and inserts the cut individual buttons into an assembly object. A cutting part that cuts from the frame, an insertion part that inserts the cut button into the assembly, and a large number of cut buttons that are temporarily held to keep the gap between the buttons before cutting And a holding portion having a mechanism for changing the distance between the buttons of the assembly.

[0005]

【Example】

 Next, the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of an embodiment of the present invention, which is a manufacturing apparatus for assembling a button of a telephone or the like. This assembling apparatus automatically rearranges the collectively formed button group 20 shown in FIG. 4 (a) into individual button units 22 and a cutting section 25, and rearranges the cut buttons, and then rearranges them. It is composed of a holding portion 26 having a hook for transferring to the assembly 21, and an insertion portion 27 for finally automatically inserting into the assembly target 21. The cutting portion 25, the holding portion 26, and the insertion portion 27 are composed of the mechanical parts shown in FIG.

Next, the configuration and operation of these three parts will be described. The cutting portion 25 is a guide pin B for positioning the collectively formed button group 20, a pedestal 6, a bread 5 for cutting the individual buttons 17 with an appropriate pressure, and a cylinder for driving the bread 5 for cutting. Positioning with respect to the holding base 1 is performed via the slide rail A2 by the slide positioning pin 4, the guide hole 9 of the holding base 1 and the guide pin B13 at the cutting portion. As shown in FIG. 1, FIG. 2, FIG. 3, and FIG. 4, the holding portion 25 includes the slider 3 that moves on the slide rail B16 within an appropriate range around the frame 14 and the sliders 3 on both sides of the frame 14. From the hooks 18 (see FIG. 4) that hold the springs 15 and the individual buttons 17 placed on the cut slider 3 and frame 14 from the top of the slider and frame with a moderate holding force. Composed. To position the slider 3, the slider positioning pin 4 is inserted to set the distance between the slider 3 and the frame 14. This positioning determines the interval between the buttons. The insertion portion 27 has a cylinder A10 having a proper stroke and pressing force for inserting the button 17 temporarily held by the holding base 1 into an assembly target 21 (not shown) positioned by the fixed guide 7 and the pressing member 8. The holding portion 26 and the insertion portion 27, which have been moved along the slide rail A2, are positioned by the guide hole 9 of the stopper 19 and the holding portion 26 and the guide pin A12 of the insertion portion 27. As a result, even if the button pitch at the time of cutting and the button pitch at the time of insertion are different, the arrangement of the buttons can be easily reset by the holding portion 26, so that a series of operations for cutting and inserting the button group This is possible with the button assembly manufacturing equipment.

[0008]

As described above, the present invention is provided with a mechanism for changing the interval between the buttons at the time of cutting and the interval between the buttons at the time of cutting by the holding portion. Therefore, there is an effect that an insertion error in the work process is eliminated and the work is simplified.
