As shown in fig. 1 to 3, when the whole assembly of the device in which the pedal 1 of the present invention is assembled between the two belts 2 is completed, the method of assembling the pedal 1 between the belts 2 includes the following steps:
the method comprises the following steps: the belt 2 is respectively sleeved on the rotating wheel sets 12, the tension set 18 is started, the tension set 18 (pressure cylinder) extends, so that the distance between the upper rotating wheel 122 and the corresponding lower rotating wheel 121 is increased, and the belt 2 can be adjusted to have a predetermined tension.
Step two: the power source 14 is started, and two of the lower rotating wheels 121 and the detent wheel 13 rotate simultaneously, and the lower rotating wheels 121 drive the belt 2 to rotate intermittently in one operation direction (clockwise direction as shown in fig. 1).
Step three: the belt 2 is stopped:
the first installation station 15 performs: as shown in fig. 1, the screw 103 of the tread plate 1 is inserted into the through hole 201 of the belt 2, the body 101 is abutted against the outer side surface of the belt 2, and the tread plate 1 is temporarily positioned with respect to the belt 2 by inserting the screw 103 into the through hole 201. When the dragging wheel 13 continues to drive the belt 2 to intermittently rotate in the operating direction, the pedal 1 is guided by the guiding portion 173 of the guiding member 17, and can smoothly move to the lower portion of the lower rotating wheel 121 along with the belt 2, and can smoothly move to the second installation station 16 by the roller 172.
The second installation station 16 performs: the screw 103 corresponds substantially to the pneumatic rotary tool 51 of the extracting apparatus 50, with the step 1 having been moved to the second mounting station 16. At this time, the pushing unit 60 extends to push the pedal 1 and the belt 2 to be locked with the nut 4 upward, and the belt 2 is positioned relative to the base 11 along the second axial direction Y. Referring to fig. 7 and 9, the second magnet 252 of the material placing member 25 can pick up the clamp plate 3 that has been sent to the second mounting station 16 (which can be fed by a vibratory feeder, not shown) by the cooperation of the lifting cylinder 21 and the traverse cylinder 23 of the clamp plate feeding unit 20, and when the clamp plate 3 is located above the screw 103, the material pushing cylinder 253 is activated (as shown by the solid line to the imaginary line in fig. 9), and the clamp plate 3 is placed toward the belt 2, and the screw 103 is inserted into the through hole 301. At the same time, as shown in fig. 8, the nut feeding unit 2 sequentially feeds the nuts 4 to the second mounting station 16. At the same time, the third driving member 47 of the driving unit 40 is activated to drive the pneumatic rotary tool 51 to move down from a first ascending position (see working step a of fig. 8) to a first descending position (see working step B of fig. 8), after the nut 4 is taken up, the driving unit 40 drives the material taking unit 50 to return from the first descending position to the first ascending position, and the magnet 513 located at the material taking end 512 is used to take up the nut 4 sent to the end of the feeding track 312 (see working step C of fig. 8, and then the second driving member 46 and the first driving member 43 are activated to enable the pneumatic rotary tool 51 to move the taken-up nut 4 towards the screw 103 located at the second mounting station 16, so that the material taking end 512 approaches the screw 103, the nut 4 abuts against the top of the corresponding screw 103, then the material taking unit 50 rotates the taken-up nut 4 relative to the screw 103, the nut 4 is screwed on the screw 103, and the clamping plate 3 is clamped and positioned on the belt 2. Finally, the driving unit 40 drives the material taking unit 50 away from the screw 103 (see fig. 10).
Step four: and repeating the second step to the third step, and continuously locking and fixing the pedal 1 on the belt 2.
Step five: the tension group 1 is restarted, and the tension group 18 (pressure cylinder) retracts, so that the distance between the upper rotating wheel 122 and the corresponding lower rotating wheel 121 is reduced, the tension of the belt 2 is reduced, and the belt 2 assembled with the pedals 1 can be respectively detached from the rotating wheel group 12.
Therefore, the method and the device for arranging the pedal group between the two belts can arrange the pedal 1 on the belt 2 by continuous and integrated automatic operation and achieve the aims of improving the productivity and reducing the labor cost.
It should be noted that, in the above embodiment of the method for assembling a plurality of pedals between two belts according to the present invention, when the belt 2 is stopped in the step three, the pushing unit 60 is extended, and the pedal 1 to be locked with the nut 4 and the belt 2 are pushed upward. However, the pushing unit 60 mainly functions to provide a support for the pedal 1 locked to the belt 2, so that the pushing unit 60 can be operated to extend and push the belt 2 upward only in the interval between the belt being hung and the nut being locked. Generally, the pushing unit 60 can be driven after the belt 2 is hung and before or after the tension group 18 is tension-tightened.
In summary, the method and apparatus for assembling a pedal between two belts of a belt treadmill of the present invention is suitable for automated assembly operation of the pedal on the belts of the belt treadmill, and indeed achieves the object of the present invention.
