The transfer support platform 221 is provided with a plurality of adsorption holes 221a for adsorbing and positioning the reinforcing ribs. The X-axis reference part 224 is arranged on the transfer support platform 221 along the X-axis direction, and the Y-axis reference part 225 is arranged on the transfer support platform 221 along the Y-axis direction. The first pushing mechanism 222 is arranged on the transfer support platform 221 and can push the reinforcing ribs to move in the direction of the X-axis reference part 224. The second pushing mechanism 223 is arranged on the transfer support platform 221 and can push the reinforcing ribs to move in the direction of the Y-axis reference part 225. The loading manipulator 23 can carry the reinforcing ribs on the loading conveying mechanism 21 to the transfer support table 221, use the adsorption holes 221a to adsorb and position the reinforcing ribs, and then use the first pushing mechanism 222 to push the reinforcing ribs to move in the direction of the X-axis reference part 224, and use the second pushing mechanism 223 to push the reinforcing ribs to move in the direction of the Y-axis reference part 225, so as to adjust and position the position of the reinforcing ribs to ensure that the assembly manipulator 3 can accurately grasp the reinforcing ribs on the transfer support table 221. Both the first pushing mechanism 222 and the second pushing mechanism 223 can adopt the existing structure of the cylinder-driven pushing block.

[0048] Combination Figures 1 to 17 The specific working principle of the automatic assembling rib reinforcement device 100 of the present invention is as follows:

[0049] The carrier delivery mechanism 82 delivers the carrier bodies 811 in the carrier group 81 to the loading and conveying mechanism 21 one by one, so that the loading and conveying mechanism 21 can sequentially convey the carrier bodies 811, and the loading and conveying mechanism 21 can sequentially convey the reinforcing rib positioning grooves 811a on the carrier bodies 811 to the loading and grabbing station 211, so that the reinforcing ribs in the reinforcing rib positioning grooves 811a are sequentially conveyed to the loading and grabbing station 211. The following jacking mechanism 83 follows the movement of the carrier bodies 811 on the loading and conveying mechanism 21, so that each time the reinforcing ribs on the carrier bodies 811 stay at the loading and grabbing station 211, the following jacking mechanism 83 also stops following the carrier bodies 811, and the following jacking mechanism 83 then lifts the carrier bodies 811, so that the reinforcing ribs can stably stay at the loading and grabbing station 211. The second CCD component 84 takes pictures and locates the reinforcing ribs located at the loading and grabbing station 211. The feeding robot 23 then quickly and accurately grabs and feeds the reinforcing ribs located at the feeding grabbing station 211, and transports the grabbed reinforcing ribs to the transfer adjustment mechanism 22, which shapes and positions the reinforcing ribs. The assembly robot 3 then moves the reinforcing rib on the transfer adjustment mechanism 22 to the preset position below the first CCD component 5, the CCD camera module 52 of the first CCD component 5 takes a picture of the hole position of the reinforcing rib and feeds back the picture result to the control system 6, the assembly robot 3 then drives the reinforcing rib to move out of the position below the first CCD component 5 and moves to another preset position, the casing conveying mechanism 4 conveys the casing to the bottom of the first CCD component 5, the CCD lifting module 51 of the first CCD component 5 drives the CCD camera module 52 to descend a certain height, so that the CCD camera module 52 takes a picture of the hole position of the casing and feeds back the picture result to the control system 6, and the control system 6 processes and calculates the picture result, so that the assembly robot 3 assembles the reinforcing rib on the casing, and the hole position of the reinforcing rib is aligned with the hole position of the casing, and then the screwing mechanism 7 is used to lock the screws on the hole position of the reinforcing rib and the hole position of the casing, so that the reinforcing rib and the casing are accurately locked together. The empty carrier body 811 is transported to the empty recovery mechanism 9 through the loading and conveying mechanism 21 .

[0050] In summary, the automatic assembling rib device 100 of the casing of the present invention can automatically assemble the ribs on the casing, greatly saving labor costs and improving production efficiency.
