Problems solved by technology

Since the special plane for gluing is only suitable for a single type, and the gluing speed is low (about 1s / point), it cannot meet the needs of model switching
In other words, most of the main body welding lines of automobile factories are flexible production systems made to order, while the roof assembly assembly lines are all single-species or batch-switching production systems. As a result, different roof assembly assembly lines need to be arranged around each main line, occupying a large amount of workshop space, and due to space constraints, it will bring practical difficulties to the introduction of subsequent new models
[0003] Therefore, there are disadvantages in the prior art such as the single type of special machine glue coating, large area occupation, and low degree of production flexibility.

Embodiment 1

[0036] refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 1. The working process of the robot's roof gluing suction cup gripper: First, the roof sheet (workpiece) layer is placed on the rack car, and the rack cart is manually pushed into the designated positioning slot. When grabbing the workpiece, the gripper of the robot's roof gluing suction cup first takes a photo of the workpiece above the material rack, and compares the image with the standard image that has been stored in advance, so as to identify the model specification of the workpiece and the actual plane of the workpiece Position, according to the calculation results, the gripper automatically adjusts its posture to grab the workpiece. During the grabbing process, the robot can adjust the angle of the suction cup or adjust the angle of the suction cup by itself for some products with large changes in the curved surface or length of the workpiece, such as the conventional roof 82 and the extended roof 81, according to the different ...

Abstract

The invention relates to an automobile roof coating robot sucker claw, which comprises a main frame, a connecting flange which is arranged in the middle of the upper end face of the main frame and connected with a robot, a first group of suckers, a second group of suckers, an unhooking prevention device, a third group of suckers and a fourth group of suckers. In the invention, the claw breaks limitation on special clamps; a photographic calibration technique and a structure in which the pivot angle of the claw sucker bracket is adjustable and in which floating suckers are arranged in the middle are adopted, so multiple types of switching is realized and the coating beat and positional accuracy are improved greatly in production; and the design of the claw is in accordance with the actual condition of the operation of the robot.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a robot part for automobile manufacturing, in particular to a robot suction cup gripper for car roof gluing. Background technique [0002] In the roof assembly operation, at present, domestic enterprises generally use the roof beam to be glued on a special machine, and then the glued roof beam and roof outer cover are manually welded into the roof assembly. Since the special plane for gluing is only suitable for a single type, and the gluing speed is low (about 1s / point), it cannot meet the needs of model switching. In other words, most of the main body welding lines of automobile factories are flexible production systems made to order, while the roof assembly assembly lines are all single-species or batch-switching production systems. As a result, different roof assembly lines need to be arranged around each main line, occupying a large amount of workshop space, and due to space constraints, it will bring practical difficulti...
