In this embodiment, the shell positioning drive unit 231 is a cylinder driving structure, and a plurality of shell positioning claws 233 are provided on the shell positioning plate 232, and the plurality of shell positioning claws 233 are arranged in a straight line and spaced in sequence along the extension direction of the shell conveying channel 211.

Next, the working principle of the shell conveying device 31 is described:

A plurality of shells 20 are loaded in the shell loading vibration plate. Under the action of the shell loading vibration plate, the shells 20 arrive at the shell loading channel 42 of the shell loading track 41 from the output end of the shell loading vibration plate. The shells 20 enter the shell feeding longitudinal channel 111 through the shell loading channel 42. The shells 20 then arrive at the intersection of the shell feeding longitudinal channel 111 and the shell cutting transverse channel 112 through the shell feeding longitudinal channel 111.

At this time, the shell cutting claw 131 on the shell cutting rod 130 is just at the intersection of the shell feeding longitudinal channel 111 and the shell cutting transverse channel 112, so that the shell 20 can enter the shell cutting claw 131, so that the shell 20 will be clamped between the cutting upper clamping jaw 132 and the cutting lower clamping jaw 133;

The shell separation driving unit 120 drives the shell separation rod 130, and the shell separation rod 130 drives the shell separation claw 131, and the shell separation claw 131 further drives the shell 20 from the shell separation transverse channel 112 into the shell conveying channel 211;

When the shell 20 arrives in the shell conveying channel 211, the shell pushing driving part 221 drives the shell pushing rod 222 to extend forward, and the shell pushing rod 222 drives the shell pushing block 223 at the same time. At this time, the shell pushing surface 225 of the shell pushing block 223 touches the shell 20, so that the shell 20 in the shell cutting claw 131 is cut out and conveyed to the designated position; when the shell 20 in the shell cutting claw 131 is cut out, the shell cutting driving part 120 drives the shell cutting rod 130 in the opposite direction to reset the shell cutting claw 131, so as to prepare for the loading of the next shell 20;

When the shell 20 is transported to the designated position, the shell positioning assembly 230 works. Specifically, the shell positioning driving part 231 drives the shell positioning plate 232 so that the shell positioning claw 233 is inserted into the shell transport passage 211, thereby clamping the shell 20 in the shell transport passage 211;

After the shell 20 in the shell conveying channel 211 is clamped, on the one hand, the pin plugging device 32 can accurately and stably plug the pin 11 into the plugging hole 21 of the shell 20; on the other hand, the shell pushing driving part 221 drives the shell pushing rod 222 to retract backward, and the shell pushing rod 222 drives the shell pushing block 223 at the same time. At this time, the avoidance sliding surface 226 of the shell pushing block 223 touches the shell 20. Since the shell 20 is fixed, the avoidance sliding surface 226 slides along the surface of the shell 20, and with the cooperation of the torsion spring, the shell pushing block 223 will gradually be accommodated in the avoidance groove 224, so that the shell pushing rod 222 can be smoothly retracted;

When the avoidance sliding surface 226 of the shell pushing block 223 is out of contact with the shell 20 , the shell pushing block 223 is exposed outside the avoidance groove 224 again under the action of the torsion spring, thereby preparing for the conveyance of the next shell 20 .

Next, the structural design principle of the above-mentioned shell conveying device 31 is described:

1. The shell feeding longitudinal channel 111 and the shell cutting transverse channel 112 are crisscrossed and interpenetrated, and the shell cutting claw 131 is located at the intersection of the two channels. With such a structural design, the shell 20 can enter the shell cutting claw 131 through the shell feeding longitudinal channel 111, and the shell cutting claw 131 then loads the shell 20 from the shell cutting transverse channel 112 to the shell conveying channel 211, thereby realizing the loading operation of the shell 20; further, since the shell 20 moves inside the channel, the shell 20 can be accurately transferred to the specified position, thereby realizing precise loading;

2. The shell cutting claw 131 has an upper cutting claw 132 and a lower cutting claw 133, and the upper cutting claw 132 and the lower cutting claw 133 are spaced apart from each other. With such a structural design, on the one hand, the upper cutting claw 132 and the lower cutting claw 133 can elastically clamp the shell 20, so that the shell 20 is more stable during the loading process; on the other hand, when the shell cutting claw 131 reaches the shell conveying channel 211, due to the gap formed between the upper cutting claw 132 and the lower cutting claw 133, it can cooperate well with the shell pushing block 223, and the shell pushing block 223 can pass through the gap between the upper cutting claw 132 and the lower cutting claw 133 to smoothly cut the shell 20 therefrom;

3. The shell push block 223 is rotatably arranged on the shell push rod 222 through a torsion spring. The shell push rod 222 is provided with an avoidance groove 224. The shell push block 223 can be accommodated in the avoidance groove 224 or exposed outside the avoidance groove 224. In addition, the shell push block 223 has a shell push surface 225 and an avoidance sliding surface 226. With such a structural design, on the one hand, when the shell 20 is pushed, the shell push surface 225 contacts the shell; on the other hand, when the shell push block 223 is reset, the avoidance sliding surface 226 contacts the shell and is accommodated in the avoidance groove 224 with the cooperation of the torsion spring; it can be seen that the shell push rod 222 only needs to perform a simple telescopic movement to achieve the purpose of conveying the shell 20;

4. When the shell 20 is transported to the specified position, the shell positioning drive unit 231 drives the shell positioning plate 232 so that the shell positioning claw 233 is inserted into the shell conveying channel 211, thereby clamping the shell 20 in the shell conveying channel 211. By setting the shell positioning component 230, the following two effects can be achieved: on the one hand, the pin plug-in device 32 can accurately and stably plug the pin 11 into the plug-in hole 21 of the shell 20; on the other hand, the shell pushing drive unit 221 drives the shell pushing rod 222 to retract backward, and the shell pushing rod 222 simultaneously drives the shell pushing block 223. At this time, the avoidance sliding surface 226 of the shell pushing block 223 touches the shell 20. Since the shell 20 is fixed, the avoidance sliding surface 226 slides along the surface of the shell 20, and with the cooperation of the torsion spring, the shell pushing block 223 will gradually be accommodated in the avoidance groove 224, so that the shell pushing rod 222 can be smoothly retracted.

As shown in Fig. 12 and Fig. 13, the main body 800 includes: a main body sliding rod 810, a pin cutting plate 820, a pin cutting guide block 830, and a pin cutting guide wheel 840.

In this embodiment, the cutting auxiliary guide groove 610 is curved and extended along a horizontal plane.

Next, the working principle of the pin plugging device 32 is described:

The material strip 10 is placed in the material strip transmission channel 311 on the material strip transmission track 310. At this time, the material strip transmission bump 321 on the material strip transmission roller 320 is inserted into the through hole 14 of a pin 11 in the material strip 10. It should be particularly noted that the board surface of each pin 11 in the material strip 10 is attached to the material strip transmission channel 311. When the pin 11 is subsequently cut off, it is cut off along the board surface direction perpendicular to the pin 11, so that the pin 11 can be cut off quickly and effectively.

The material belt transmission driving unit 330 drives the material belt transmission roller 320 to rotate. Under the cooperation of the material belt transmission protrusion 321 and the through hole 14, the rotating material belt transmission roller 320 drives the material belt 10 to be transmitted along the material belt transmission track 310. Thus, the continuous and uninterrupted material belt 10 enters from the material belt feeding end 311a of the material belt transmission channel 311, and then comes out from the material belt discharging end 311b of the material belt transmission channel 311.

The pins 11 coming out of the material strip discharge end 311b will enter the pin cutting receiving groove 821 of the pin cutting plate 820;

After the pin 11 enters the pin cutting receiving groove 821, the plug driving unit 700 drives the plug moving rod 600 to extend. Here, the movement of the plug moving rod 600 is divided into three stages:

In the first stage of the movement of the plug-in moving rod 600, the pin cutting guide wheel 930 will slide along the cutting auxiliary guide groove 610, and the sliding pin cutting guide wheel 930 will push the auxiliary sliding rod 910 to slide horizontally and longitudinally through the intermediate connecting rod 940, and the auxiliary sliding rod 910 will then drive the pin cutting holding block 920 thereon to approach the pin cutting receiving groove 821, so that the pin cutting holding block 920 can hold the contact end 13 of the pin 11, and at the same time, the cutting holding pin 921 can pass through the through hole 14 and enter the cutting holding hole 822;

In the second stage of the movement of the plug-in moving rod 600, the plug-in driving part 700 continues to drive the plug-in moving rod 600 to extend. Since the auxiliary sliding rod 910 can no longer move, the plug-in moving rod 600 drives the plug-in sliding seat 500 to slide horizontally and laterally through the auxiliary sliding rod 910, and the plug-in sliding seat 500 further drives the separation main body 800 and the separation auxiliary member 900 to move horizontally and laterally as a whole. During the movement, since the pin separation guide wheel 840 is installed on the fixed base 400, and the wheel surface of the pin separation guide wheel 840 is against the pin separation guide surface 831, the pin separation guide block 830 will drive the main sliding rod 810 to move horizontally and longitudinally, and the main sliding rod 810 further drives the pin separation plate 820 to move horizontally and longitudinally accordingly. In this way, the pin 11 located in the pin separation receiving groove 821 can move horizontally and longitudinally, thereby breaking away from the connection with the adjacent pins and realizing the separation between the pins.

In the third stage of the movement of the plug-in movable rod 600, the plug-in driving part 700 continues to drive the plug-in movable rod 600 to extend, and the plug-in movable rod 600 drives the plug-in sliding seat 500 to continue to slide horizontally, and the plug-in sliding seat 500 drives the separation main part 800 and the separation auxiliary part 900 thereon to continue to move horizontally, so that the plug-in end 12 of the pin 11 can be plugged into the plug-in hole 21 of the housing 20;

After the plug-in end 12 of the pin 11 is plugged into the plug-in hole 21 of the shell 20, the plug-in drive unit 700 drives the plug-in moving rod 600 to retract in the opposite direction. First, the pin shearing guide wheel 930 will slide in the opposite direction along the shearing auxiliary guide groove 610, so that the pin shearing holding block 920 will separate from the pin shearing receiving groove 821, and the pin shearing holding block 920 will no longer hold the touch end 13. At the same time, the shearing holding pin 921 is separated from the through hole 14 and the shearing holding hole 822, so that the pin 11 can be smoothly detached from the pin shearing receiving groove 821; secondly, the plug-in drive unit 700 continues to drive the plug-in moving rod 600 to retract in the opposite direction, and the plug-in moving rod 600 passes through The plug-in sliding seat 500 drives the cutting body 800 and the cutting auxiliary part 900 to return to their original positions as a whole. At the same time, since a reset spring (not shown) is connected between the main sliding rod 810 and the plug-in sliding seat 500, the reset spring can drive the cutting body 800 to reset, so that the pin cutting receiving groove 821 on the pin cutting plate 820 can be connected with the material strip discharge end 311b again, preparing for the next pin 11 to be in place and cut off; here, it should be noted that since the pin cutting holding block 920 has been separated from the pin cutting receiving groove 821, the pin cutting holding block 920 will not hinder the pin 11 from entering the pin cutting receiving groove 821.

Next, the structural design principle of the pin plugging device 32 is described:

1. The plug-in moving rod 600 is provided with a cutting auxiliary guide groove 610, and the pin cutting guide wheel 930 is slidably accommodated in the cutting auxiliary guide groove 610. One end of the intermediate connecting rod 940 is connected to the pin cutting guide wheel 930, and the other end of the intermediate connecting rod 940 is connected to the auxiliary sliding rod 910. Through such a structural design, on the one hand, when two adjacent pins 11 need to be cut off, the pin cutting holding block 920 holds the contact end 13 of the pin 11, and at the same time, the cutting holding pin 921 can pass through the through hole 14 and enter the cutting holding hole 822, thereby improving the cutting stability of the pin 11; on the other hand, When the pin 11 needs to be plugged into the plug hole 21 of the housing 20, the pin shearing and holding block 920 also holds the contact end 13 of the pin 11, and the shearing and holding pin 921 can pass through the through hole 14 and enter the shearing and holding hole 822, thereby ensuring the accuracy and stability of the pin 11 during plugging. On the other hand, the pin shearing and holding block 920 will be separated from the pin shearing and receiving groove 821 in time, so that the plugged pin 11 is no longer hindered by the pin shearing and holding block 920, and at the same time, the pin shearing and holding block 920 will not hinder the new pin 11 from entering the pin shearing and receiving groove 821 again.

2. By setting the separation main body 800, the separation main body 800 can not only move in the horizontal longitudinal direction, but also move in the horizontal transverse direction. The separation main body 800 that moves in the horizontal longitudinal direction can realize the separation of the pins, and the separation main body 800 that moves in the horizontal transverse direction can realize the insertion of the pins. It should be noted that the separation main body 800 moves in the horizontal longitudinal direction, that is, the separation main body 800 moves in the direction perpendicular to the main panel of the pins, so that the pins can be more effectively separated;

3. By providing the cutting auxiliary member 900, the cutting auxiliary member 900 effectively cooperates with the cutting main member 800, and the cutting auxiliary member 900 presses and holds the pins, thereby making the pins more stable during the cutting and plugging process;

4. On the one hand, the pin cutting and holding block 920 holds the contact end 13 of the pin 11, and on the other hand, the cutting and holding pin 921 can pass through the through hole 14 and enter the cutting and holding hole 822. In this way, by doubly fixing the pin, the stability and accuracy of the pin during the cutting and plugging process can be better guaranteed.

As shown in FIG11 , further, a stopper block 510 is provided on the plug-in sliding seat 500, and a first stopper block 410 and a second stopper block 420 are provided on the fixed base 400. The first stopper block 410 and the second stopper block 420 are spaced apart from each other, and the stopper block 510 moves between the first stopper block 410 and the second stopper block 420. In this way, during the sliding process of the plug-in sliding seat 500, due to the limiting effect of the first stopper block 410 and the second stopper block 420 on the stopper block 510, the plug-in sliding seat 500 is displaced only within a specified range, thereby ensuring that the separation main body 800 and the separation auxiliary member 900 are accurately positioned.

As shown in FIG9 , further, the material belt transmission mechanism 33 also includes a material belt holding structure 340. The material belt holding structure 340 includes: a material belt holding fixed block 341 and a material belt holding movable block 342. The material belt holding fixed block 341 is fixed on the material belt transmission track 310, and the material belt holding movable block 342 is slidably arranged on the material belt holding fixed block 341. A clamping spring (not shown) is arranged between the material belt holding fixed block 341 and the material belt holding movable block 342, and the material belt holding movable block 342 abuts against the wheel surface of the material belt transmission roller 320. In this way, the material belt pressing movable block 342 is continuously pressed against the wheel surface of the material belt transmission roller 320 under the elastic force of the compression spring, so that the material belt 10 will be squeezed between the material belt pressing movable block 342 and the material belt transmission roller 320. During the rotation of the material belt transmission roller 320, the material belt pressing movable block 342 is continuously reciprocated by the force of the material belt transmission protrusion 321. At the same time, the material belt transmission protrusion 321 can continuously enter the through hole 14 of the material belt 10, thereby improving the smoothness of the material belt 10 during the transmission process.

In the automated assembly equipment of the present invention, the shell conveying device 31 is mainly used for loading and transporting the shell 20, so that the shell 20 can reach the specified position, and cooperate with the pin plugging device 32, so that the pin plugging device 32 can accurately plug the pin 11 into the plugging hole 21 of the shell 20; the pin plugging device 32 is mainly used for cutting out each pin 11 in the material strip 10, and cooperate with the shell conveying device 31 to accurately plug the cut pins 11 into the plugging hole 21 of the shell 20; by setting the shell conveying device 31 and the pin plugging device 32, the traditional manual operation is replaced, and the mechanical automation production level of the enterprise is improved.
