The one-way device, also known as the electric start overrunning clutch, also known as the 'extreme force', is a device that transmits the power of the car engine to the axle in the form of a switch. The specific one-way device usually consists of an output shaft, a star wheel and a matching Gaskets, connectors and spring parts are formed. The one-way device shown in Figure 1 includes an output shaft and a star wheel. One end of the star wheel is equipped with a circular gasket, a semicircular gasket and an outer cover, and the other end of the star wheel is One end needs to be assembled with a spring, spring seat, circlip seat and circlip.

Due to the large number of assembly parts, the one-way device has many assembly processes. At present, most manufacturers have gradually changed from manual assembly to a human-machine combination method. For example, an oil injection machine is used to inject oil into the star wheel, and the circle After the shaped gasket, semicircular gasket and outer cover are manually placed on the star wheel, the outer cover is pressed by the outer cover pressing equipment. The spring, spring seat, circlip seat and circlip are assembled by means of the spring circlip, etc. The equipment is assembled, which requires not only manual control but also manual assembly, so that one or two processes require at least one worker to perform the assembly operation, and more personnel are required, which increases the cost of the enterprise.

For example, Chinese patent publication CN112246538A is an oil injection mechanism used in the one-way sleeve in the one-way device, which evenly and quantitatively injects grease into the wedge groove where the balls and springs are located. For example, Chinese patent publication CN112296650A is an automatic assembly mechanism for semicircular gaskets and covers of a one-way device, which realizes the automated assembly of semicircular gaskets and covers. Another example is the Chinese patent publication CN112296651A, an automated assembly mechanism for a one-way slip ring and a circlip.
