Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a vehicle body automated processing equipment, and in particular to a vehicle body transfer system suitable for the production of multiple vehicle models. Background Art

[0002] The four major processes of automobile body in automobile factories are stamping, welding, painting and assembly. Among them, welding, painting and assembly processes all use skid conveying systems to realize the transportation of body assemblies during the production process. As the main carrier for conveying car bodies, the skid will also use different carrier methods in different process sections to realize logistics series in order to meet different process requirements. Generally, it is impossible to use a skid to the end, and the versatility is poor. In the PVC bottom gluing process in the painting workshop, if the car body is still carried on the skid through the production station, most of the bottom area of ​​the car is blocked and the fulcrum on the skid interferes with the automatic spraying robot or manual spray gun, and the car body cannot complete the operation requirements on the skid. In view of the above factors, the car body needs to replace the body carrier in this process section interface area, and transfer from the ground skid to the aerial body hanger to enter the bottom glue spraying process. The body transfer system is a special equipment for transferring the car body from the ground to the air or from the air back to the ground to complete this process section.

[0003] The special equipment for body transfer is mainly composed of hangers and supporting arms. Since the hangers and supporting arms are fixed structures and cannot be adjusted, combined or transformed, they have great limitations and cannot be used universally. Usually, an automobile factory only produces 1 to 2 platform products to achieve high production capacity and low cost. However, automobile factories often need to produce various models such as commercial vehicles, passenger cars, and small trucks. Especially for commercial vehicle manufacturers, due to the complexity of commercial vehicle products, the existing body transfer equipment is far from meeting the production needs of commercial vehicles, and cannot meet the flexible production requirements of bodies of different platforms and models.

[0004] At present, the existing technology of body transfer system for PVC bottom gluing station in painting workshop mainly includes the following types:

[0005] 1. Side lift and rocker hanger body transfer system

[0006] Please see attached Figure 1The side lift and rocker hanger body transfer system consists of 4 fixedly installed lifts 100, a rocker hanger 200, a roller bed 5, a body skid support pin 500, a skid 4, a support arm support pin 700, etc. The lifts 100 are in groups of two, and the motor drives the connecting rod to drive their own mechanical transmission devices to achieve synchronous lifting of the pallet, lift the body 3 off the skid 4, and the skid 4 pulls out the roller bed 5, and the rocker hanger 200 is lifted by the elevator to lift the body 3 on the lift 100. The large support arm of the rocker hanger 200 can swing, and the support point is a fixed structure. It is mainly suitable for production lines of a single model or several models with the same bottom process pin holes, and cannot meet the production of multiple products or models with large differences in bottom process pin holes.

[0007] 2. Fixed hanger body transfer system

[0008] Please see attached Figure 2 The fixed hanger body transfer system is composed of a fixed hanger 400, a sled 4, a roller bed 5 and a guide rod 300. When transferring a body, the fixed hanger 400 is first lowered to the preset position of the transfer roller bed, the sled 4 brings the body 3 into the roller bed 5, and the fixed hanger 400 rises to support the body skirt and carry the body 3 to the next station, completing the whole set of actions. The large supporting arm and supporting point of the fixed hanger 400 are fixed structures, which are suitable for production lines with the same bottom plate structure and a relatively single model, and cannot meet the production of multiple products or models with different bottom plate structures.

[0048] The upper end of the pin rod 61 is a conical structure 611, which can play a role of rough positioning guide when the universal hanger 1 descends, so that the pin rod 61 is inserted into the guide positioning slot 121 after being guided by the conical structure 611. When the universal hanger 1 continues to descend, the cylindrical part of the pin rod 61 is inserted into the guide positioning slot 121 to complete the precise positioning of the universal hanger 1.

[0049] The present invention is applicable to the vehicle body transfer system for the production of multiple vehicle models. The specific action flow when transferring the vehicle body is as follows:

[0050] The reader / writer installed at the station before the roller bed 5 reads the tag Tag installed on the skid 4. When the car body 3 with the skid 4 enters the roller bed 5, the clamping device on the roller bed 5 clamps the skid positioning beam to complete the precise positioning of the skid 4, thereby achieving the precise positioning of the car body 3 in the transfer system. After the universal hanger 1 arrives at the transfer station, the RFID system sends the car body data information stored in the tag Tag read by the reader / writer to the PLC system; the PLC system controls the rotation of the boom rotating device 2 according to the production control program of the corresponding car model preset in the database. The installation positions of the skid 4 and the roller bed 5 in the present invention on the production line are the same as those in the prior art, and can also be fine-tuned according to actual needs, which will not be repeated here.

[0051] Please see attached Fig.10 When the universal hanger 1 is lowered to make the base frame 15 at the height of position A, the pin 61 is inserted into the guide positioning slot 121 to realize the guide positioning of the universal hanger 1; when the universal hanger 1 continues to lower to make the base frame 15 at the height of position B, the rotating ear 138 falls into the positioning slot 231 of the rotating sleeve 23 and is in rigid contact; when the universal hanger 1 is further lowered to make the base frame 15 at the height of position C, due to the constraint of the rotating sleeve 23, the rotating arm assembly 13 remains unchanged at the previous height and always maintains contact with the rotating sleeve 23, while the movable shaft 1361 moves relatively upward in the sliding sleeve 152 along the axial direction of the movable shaft 1361, and the limit block 153 is disengaged from the limit slot 1351, and the PLC system controls the reduction motor 22 to drive the rotating ear 138 to rotate through the rotating sleeve 23, thereby realizing the rotation of the rotating arm assembly 13 required for lifting. According to different vehicle models, different rotating arm assemblies 13 and fixed arms 14 are selected for combination to form different support point combinations to play a lifting role on the vehicle body 3.

[0052] After the rotating arm assembly 13 rotates to the preset position, the universal hanger 1 rises, and the movable shaft 1361 moves relatively downward in the sliding sleeve 152 along the axial direction of the movable shaft 1361, so that the limit block 153 is matched and inserted into the limit groove 1351, and the locking claw 135 is locked with the base frame 15 to limit the rotation of the rotating arm assembly 13; the universal hanger 1 continues to rise so that the rotating ear 138 is separated from the rotating sleeve 23 and the universal hanger 1 is fully loaded, so that the vehicle body 3 is lifted to the specified height through the support block 137 and the fixed arm 14, and separated from the skid 4. The clamping device is opened, the roller bed 5 runs, and the empty skid 4 leaves the transfer station, thus completing the entire skid-changing hanger transfer process.

[0053] Since the length, skirt structure and bottom supporting position of different car models may be different, the supporting point positions may be different in front, back, top, bottom, left and right. Through different combinations of the rotating support arm assembly 13 and the fixed support arm 14 arranged at the bottom of the universal hanger 1, a supporting point combination suitable for the production of different car bodies can be formed. The supporting point combination corresponding to each car model can be preset in the PLC system for normal production process, for example:

[0054] In a certain automobile manufacturing enterprise, the vehicle types can be divided into categories ① to ⑨ according to the nature of the products produced. Each type of vehicle body 3 has similar body skirts and bottom support positions, and can use the same set of support point combinations. During production, after the PLC system classifies the vehicle model according to the vehicle body data information, it can control the corresponding rotating support arm assembly 13 to rotate to a preset position and form a corresponding support point combination with the fixed support arm 14, as shown in Table 1.
