Spoke-like vehicle body automatic ordering buffer area and ordering method thereof

Abstract

The invention relates to a spoke-like vehicle body automatic ordering buffer area and an ordering method thereof; the buffer area comprises eight linear tracks which form a star-shaped spoke and a circular scheduling track which forms a circular rim; the star-shaped spoke is in a symmetric structure, and comprises a primary buffer area and a secondary buffer area which respectively comprises three adjacent linear racks; the other two linear tracks are adjacent to the primary and the secondary buffer areas, and respectively serve as a front scheduling track and a front scheduling track; the eight linear tracks form a transfer area at the cross point of the star shape; the primary and the secondary buffer areas are respectively connected with an inlet track and an outlet track; and the ordering method uses the buffer areas to complete the scheduling and the ordering of a vehicle by determining the ordering a target, encoding and ordering. Compared with a traditional automobile production buffer area, the invention improves the ordering flexibility and the speed of the vehicle in the buffer area, so that the operation of an automobile assembly line is quicker and more stable.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a buffer zone on a complete automobile production line and a sorting method thereof. Background technique [0002] The whole automobile production process consists of welding, painting, assembly lines and the buffer zone between these three lines. However, in the case of multi-variety mixed-flow production, the time required for welding and final assembly of each variety is different. The buffer zone between the welding and painting line needs to sort the body in the same color, and the buffer zone between the painting and final assembly line needs to be sorted by vehicle type. Similarity sorting, different types of car bodies need to be sorted randomly in multi-variety mixed-flow final assembly production, and the current buffer zone is limited by its own structure and capacity, and cannot satisfy the above three sorting methods at the same time. Therefore, the research and development of a free sorting and storage buffer zon...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0003] The existing buffer structure mainly includes circular buffer, linear sorting buffer, back-shifting buffer, etc. In production applications, there are defects such as weak sorting ability or too long sorting time, which cannot be well adapted to multi-variety mixed-flow production needs
