Problems solved by technology

[0007] However, a disadvantage of the described modular assembly line system is that it is very time-consuming to transport the pallets from assembly station to assembly station by means of endless conveyor belts
Another disadvantage is the large number of pallets that circulate on the conveyor belt and this is necessary for the operation of this assembly line system

Embodiment Construction

[0052] FIG. 1 shows a schematic top view of an assembly unit 1 of the present invention. The assembly cell 1 comprises a three-axis module 2 for transporting pallets between the pallet stations 3 a , 3 b , 3 c , 3 d , 3 e , 3 f of the different devices of the assembly cell 1 . The pallet stations 3a-3f are locations in the assembly cell 1 where the triaxial module 2 can reach and where pallets can be positioned. According to the invention, the three-axis module 2 is able to transport pallets directly and thus also quickly between the pallet stations 3 a - 3 f . The arrangement of the assembly cell 1 consists of two manual double assembly stations 4 and 5 , a connecting device 6 , a central workpiece storage 7 and a buffer zone 8 and 9 .

[0053] The three-axis module 2 can move in the X direction on the horizontal straight guide rail 10 by means of a linear motor not shown. It can also move vertically up and down in the Z direction, ie perpendicular to the projection plane. T...

Abstract

The invention relates to a work cell (1; 21, 22) which is suitable for assembling units (55) of workpieces (35) on pallets (33; 42, 43; 54; 68, 69) which and comprises a plurality of palette stations (3a, 3b, 3c, 3d, 3e, 3f; 3g; 3h) where palettes are available. At least a part of said pallet stations is configured as workstations for carrying out assembly works on the units of the pallets. The work cell further comprises at least one transport device for transporting the pallets between the pallet stations. The inventive work cell is characterized in that the transport device is configured as a triaxial module (2; 23, 24) which is adapted to transport every single pallet from any pallet station within the work cell directly to any other free pallet station within the work cell. The inventive work cell allows to assemble units regardless of the spatial position of the workstations, requires only few pallets and facilitates a more rapid transport of the pallets from workstation to workstation.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an assembly unit adapted to assemble modules from workpieces on pallets and comprising several pallet stations at which pallets can be positioned, wherein at least part of the pallet stations are realized in the form of assembly stations to For carrying out assembly work on modules on pallets and comprising at least one conveying device for conveying pallets between pallet stations. Background technique [0002] Such an assembly unit, an assembly line, is known, for example, from DE 195 04 457 A1. [0003] In order to assemble modules from workpieces, such as assembling transmissions from shafts, bearings, gears, ring seals, etc., the workpieces are delivered to the modules in a certain order and assembled. In this case, manual assembly work (performed by workers) often alternates with automatic assembly work (performed by machines). [0004] In the prior art, assembly lines are used for the assembly of modules. Such assembl...
