A method is provided for filling a rivet cartridge with rivet elements by means of a rivet loading station having a rivet delivery unit for delivering the rivet elements and having a rivet cartridge receiving means for receiving a rivet cartridge. The rivet elements are supplied from the rivet delivery unit to a rivet cartridge which is received in the rivet cartridge receiving means and are received therein in an aligned manner. The rivet loading station detects pre-determined characteristics of the rivet elements that are relevant to the drilling process and/or the riveting process prior to supplying them to the rivet cartridge.

The present invention discloses an assembly machine for a medicine mixer, comprising a rack, a medicine mixing cup mounting device, a rubber plug mounting device, an elastic clip mounting device, a puncture needle mounting device, a coverplate mounting device, a soldering device and an output device. The medicine mixing cup mounting device, the rubber plug mounting device, the elastic clip mounting device, the puncture needle mounting device, the coverplate mounting device, the soldering device and the output device are arranged annularly along an outer circumference of the dividing table successively. The assembly machine for a medicine mixer according to the present invention is controlled by PLC. A feeding system consisting of a plurality of groups of oscillating disks and tracks conveys each part at an interface of the medicine mixer to given positions of the equipment.

Disclosed is a wheel airtight rubber ring press-fitting device, consisting of a frame, first servo motors, ball screw pairs, first guide rails, a first cylinder and the like. The device may be used for automatic continuous production. The central axis of an airtight rubber ring coincides with the central axis of the outer rim of a wheel, so that the positioning precision is improved, and high-precision press-fitting is realized. Through cyclic switching of double manipulators, the press-fitting feeding time is nested, the press-fitting cycle is shortened, and the working efficiency is improved.

An apparatus is disclosed for applying tags with attached elastic anchor bands onto the tops of objects such as bottles in a high speed packaging application. The apparatus includes an infeed assembly for feeding a web, a conveyor assembly that receives a web and conveys it along a path in an upstream direction, a rotating selector wheel, a placement assembly, a pair of rotating jaw assembles, a vacuum cup of the selector wheel, and stretched elastic bands over the tops of respective bottles being conveyed along a path below the placing assembly. The elastic bands then snap onto the tops of their respective bottles to secure the tags to the bottles.

A joining device includes a mobile joining head with a joining tool which is arranged on an industrial robot, an element feed system, and a control device which is configured to activate the joining tool and control the element feed system. The element feed system has a magazine device which is movable with the joining head and which has a working magazine in which a large number of joining elements are accommodatable at a same time and a separating device from which joining elements are conveyable onward from the magazine device in a direction of the joining tool, a stand-by magazine which is stationary and which is fillable with joining elements from a sorting device, and a coupling device that couples the magazine device to the stand-by magazine where a first coupling half is arranged on the magazine device and a second coupling half is arranged on the stand-by magazine.

A device and method for producing a component are provided. The device or method includes steps or units for providing a first component element having a recess in or on a first surface of the first component element, and for positioning a second component element in the region of the recess. The device or method also includes a step or unit for pressing the first component element and the second component element together, and as a result forming a material fit, positive fit and/or non-positive fit between the first and the second component elements at least in the region of the recess. The positioning and the pressing can be carried out or are carried out functionally, in particular, spatially and/or temporally, in terms of equipment, separately from each other.

A magazine assembly for temporarily receiving joining elements has a housing defining a longitudinal axis, within which a plurality of joining elements can be accommodated axially in sequence, and a conveyor, which is configured for conveying joining elements from a first axial end of the housing to an opposite second axial end of the housing. A plurality of housing nests is formed within the housing, which are arranged in sequence along the longitudinal axis and which are each configured for receiving a joining element, wherein the conveyor is configured for conveying a single joining element or several joining elements in cycles from an infeed housing nest at the first axial end of the housing to a dispensing housing nest at the opposite second axial end of the housing.

An electronic apparatus production system is disclosed. The electronic apparatus production system comprises a transmission rail in the form of a substantially closed loop, a plurality of storage trays circulating on the transmission rail, each of the storage trays comprising a plurality of holding portions to hold a plurality of components with different shapes, an automatic distributor configured to mount the components with different shapes on respective holding portions, and an automatic assembler configured to grip the components on the storage tray.

An insertion station of a component (2), for example a clevis, in a component seat (12) formed in an assembly (3) to be assembled, for example a hinge assembly for doors, includes a component ordering device (14) to order the loose components coming from a component feed hopper. A component support seat (16) receives the component and is configured in such a way as to guide the component in the horizontal insertion direction. A manipulator (20) picks a component (2) from the component ordering device (14) and deposit the component in the component support seat (16). An insertion actuator (30) has a pusher member (32) operable to push the component (2) in the component seat (12), and a positioning unit (40), including an abutment (42) operable to block the assembly (3) in a component insertion position.
