Embodiment Construction

[0026] figure 1 The left side of the center shows the outline of a first part, the front door of the car, and the right side shows the outline of a second part of similar shape, specifically the rear door. exist figure 2 , the two contours are shown superimposed on each other. In this figure, isomorphic regions are indicated by dotted lines. These conformal areas are suitable for clamping the parts by the same clamping device.

[0027] image 3 The handling system shown comprises a robot 1 carrying a gripper 3 on its arm 2 . The gripper 3 can be moved around multiple axes in space by the robot 1 . The clamp 3 has a base 4 on which arms 5 , 6 are pivotally arranged and of a length adapted to carry gripping means 7 , 8 at their ends in each case. according to Figure 4 , the clamping devices 7, 8 are positioned on the same-shaped area of ​​the similarly shaped part to be handled, likewise indicated by dotted lines. With this positioning, the clamping device can hold bot...

Abstract

The invention relates to a handling system for components having similar shapes, particularly body components for motor vehicles. In said handling system, a gripper (3) located on the arm (2) of a robot (1) can grip one component and the other component that has a similar shape by means of one and the same clamping device (7, 8) without making any adaptations. In order to be able to do so, each clamping device (7, 8) is provided with two split chucks (11a, 11b, 12a, 12b), only one (11a, 11b or 12a, 12b) of which can be controlled in a gripping position while the other one (12a, 12b or 11a, 11b) is located in a neutral position outside the gripping range on the component.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a handling system for parts of similar shape, in particular car body parts, in which grippers on the arms of a robot are provided with a plurality of clamping devices with suitable Contours of the components, by means of which the individual components can be clamped on regions that are spatially offset from one another. Background technique [0002] Known handling systems (DE 20219713 U1) are used in car body structures, wherein the parts to be handled (eg car doors) are gripped by means of grippers on the arms of the robot and transported exactly to the position of the body structure , where the part is assembled. Because the part is to be clamped stably and accurately, the gripper is provided with several clamping devices, each of which includes a clamping chuck on it, which uses a profile adapted to the part in multiple Components are clamped in spatially offset positions. A prerequisite for accurate clamping positioning...
