[0051] Tire assembly is an important step in automobile production. In this process, production personnel will use a tire assembly system to complete the installation of the tire and the wheel housing. However, the traditional tire assembly system has a low efficiency in assembling the wheel housing.

[0052] In view of this, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , this application proposes a tire assembly system, which includes a wheel housing box 1, a wheel housing installation bench 2, a transportation device 3 and a control device. The wheel housing box 1 is used to store the wheel housing 100, the wheel housing installation bench 2 is used for installing the wheel housing box 1. The transportation device 3 is used to carry and transport the wheel housing box 1, and the control device is communicatively connected to the transportation device 3.

[0053] When the tire is being assembled, the robotic arm 22 picks up the wheel housing 100 from the wheel housing box 1 on the wheel housing mounting bench 2 and installs it. After a period of time, all the wheel housings 100 in the wheel housing box 1 will be installed, causing the wheel housing box 1 to enter an empty state. The transport device 3 can transport the wheel housing box 1 under the control of the control device. Therefore, when the wheel housing box 1 on the wheel housing mounting bench 2 is in an empty state, the control device can control the transport device 3 to transport the wheel housing box 1, thereby replenishing the wheel housing box 1 in the full state to the wheel housing mounting bench 2, thus completing the feeding.

[0054] It should be noted that there are many specific implementation manners of the transport device 3. For example, the transport device 3 can be set as a transport device 3 using a conveyor belt, or can also be set as an automated guided vehicle.

[0055] Based on the above hardware conditions, the present application also proposes a control method for a tire assembly system. Figures 3 to 7 It is a schematic flowchart of an embodiment of the control method for a tire assembly system. The tire assembly system includes a transport device 3, a wheel housing box 1 for storing the wheel housing 100, and a wheel housing mounting bench 2 for installing the wheel housing box 1. Please refer to Figure 3 , the control method includes:

[0056] S10: Determine whether there is a wheel housing box 1 in an empty state on the wheel housing mounting bench 2;

[0057] S20: If so, unload the wheel housing box 1 in the empty state, and control the transport device 3 to replenish the wheel housing box 1 in the full state to the corresponding installation position on the wheel housing mounting bench 2.

[0058] In the technical solution of the present application, the tire assembly system includes a transport device 3, a wheel housing box 1 for storing the wheel housing 100, and a wheel housing mounting bench 2 for installing the wheel housing box 1. The control method proposed in the present application first determines whether there is a wheel housing box 1 in an empty state on the wheel housing mounting bench 2. If not, it means that the number of wheel housings 100 on the wheel housing mounting bench 2 is sufficient for installation for a period of time, and the transport device 3 does not perform additional actions. If there is a wheel housing box 1 in an empty state, it means that there is a certain vacancy in the number of wheel housings 100 on the wheel housing mounting bench 2 and needs to be replenished. At this time, it is necessary to first unload the wheel housing box 1 in the empty state from the wheel housing mounting bench 2, and then control the transport device 3 to transport the full wheel housing box 1 to the installation position just vacated on the wheel housing mounting bench 2, thereby completing the replenishment feeding of the wheel housing 100.

[0059] The present application senses whether there is still a wheel housing 100 in the wheel housing box 1, determines whether the wheel housing box 1 is in an empty state, and replenishes and transports the wheel housing box 1 in the full state to the wheel housing mounting bench 2 through the transport device 3, thereby completing the automatic feeding and accelerating the assembly efficiency of the tire assembly system.

[0060] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 4 , step S10 specifically includes:

[0061] S11: Obtain the first image information of the wheel housing mounting bench 2;

[0062] S12: According to the first image information, determine whether there is a wheel housing box 1 in the no-load state on the wheel housing mounting bench 2.

[0063] In practical applications, there are many ways to obtain the first image information of the wheel housing mounting bench 2, such as through a camera. After obtaining the first image information, by analyzing the first image information, it can be determined whether the wheel housing 100 is still installed in the wheel housing box 1 on the wheel housing mounting bench 2, so as to determine whether there is a wheel housing box 1 in the no-load state on the wheel housing mounting bench 2, so that when the number of wheel housings 100 on the wheel housing mounting bench 2 is small, feeding can be carried out in time to avoid gaps in the wheel housings 100.

[0064] It should be noted that there are multiple installation positions on the wheel housing mounting bench 2, and each installation position is equipped with a wheel housing box 1. Therefore, when there is a wheel housing box 1 in the no-load state on the wheel housing mounting bench 2 and feeding is required, the tire assembly system can still continue to assemble using the wheel housings 100 in other wheel housing boxes 1 on the wheel housing mounting bench 2 without stopping, ensuring the assembly efficiency of the tire assembly system.

[0065] In some embodiments, the tire assembly system further includes an alignment table 21. Referring to Figure 5 , the control method further includes:

[0066] S30: Pick up the wheel housing 100 in the wheel housing box 1 on the wheel housing mounting bench 2 and place the wheel housing 100 on the alignment table 21;

[0067] When the transport device 3 transports the wheel housing box 1 in the full-load state for feeding, the tire assembly system will still continue to assemble the wheel housing 100. In practical applications, the wheel housing 100 assembly system can pick up the wheel housing 100 in the wheel housing box 1 through the robotic arm 22, or the wheel housing 100 assembly system can also pick up the wheel housing 100 through a special gripper. However, after picking up, the wheel housing 100 cannot be directly assembled, but needs to be calibrated and aligned to avoid difficulty in aligning with the tire during assembly, resulting in assembly failure. Therefore, after the robotic arm 22 picks up the wheel housing 100, the wheel housing 100 will be placed on the alignment table 21 instead of being directly assembled.

[0068] S40: Move the wheel housing 100 on the alignment table 21 so that the wheel housing 100 moves to a preset position;

[0069] When the tire assembly system is actually applied, an alignment device is also provided. When the wheel housing 100 is placed on the alignment table 21, the control device controls the alignment device to push the wheel housing 100 on the alignment table 21, so that the wheel housing 100 is moved to a preset position. There are many implementation manners of the alignment device. For example, the alignment device can be set as a cylinder, or can also be set as a push block driven by a stepping motor. Actually, multiple alignment devices can be provided, and the multiple alignment devices can be arranged on the periphery of the alignment table 21. Thus, when aligning the wheel housing 100, the multiple alignment devices can push the wheel housing 100 on the alignment table 21 from different directions, so that the wheel housing 100 can accurately move to the preset position.

[0070] S50: Pick up and install the wheel housing 100 located at the preset position.

[0071] After the alignment is completed, the robotic arm 22 will pick up the wheel housing 100 on the alignment table 21 again and perform subsequent installation. At this time, the wheel housing 100 is in the preset position. Therefore, the posture of the robotic arm 22 when picking up the wheel housing 100 is fixed, so that it can be ensured that the wheel housing 100 can be successfully installed.

[0072] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 6 , step S40 specifically includes:

[0073] S41: Obtain the in-place signal of the wheel housing 100 on the alignment table 21;

[0074] The tire assembly system can sense whether the wheel housing 100 is placed on the alignment table 21 during actual application. For example, it can be sensed by a photoelectric sensor, or a gravity sensor can also be used. Of course, it can also be that the robotic arm 22 directly sends an in-place signal when placing the wheel housing 100 on the alignment table 21. Therefore, when the robotic arm 22 places the wheel housing 100 on the alignment table 21, the control device can receive the in-place signal, so as to control the alignment device to perform alignment.

[0075] S42: According to the in-place signal, control the wheel housing 100 on the alignment table 21 to move to the preset position.

[0076] When the control device receives the in-place signal, the control device will control the alignment device to start alignment. Because each alignment of the alignment device is actually to push the wheel housing 100 to the preset position, the stroke and time of each movement of the alignment device are the same. Therefore, after a certain time when the control device controls the alignment device to start alignment, the control device can control the robotic arm 22 to pick up the wheel housing 100 on the alignment table 21 and perform subsequent installation.

[0077] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 7 , before step S30, the control method further includes:

[0078] S31: Obtain the second image information of the wheel housing mounting bench 2;

[0079] In practical applications, there are many ways to obtain the second image information of the wheel housing mounting bench 2, such as through image acquisition methods like cameras and monitors. The tire assembly system can obtain the second image information through various image acquisition methods and transmit the second image information to the control device for analysis, facilitating the subsequent installation and feeding of the wheel housing 100.

[0080] S32: According to the second image information, obtain the position information of the wheel housing 100 in the wheel housing box 1 on the wheel housing mounting bench 2;

[0081] Before the control device controls the robotic arm 22 to pick up the wheel housing 100, it needs to first determine the position of the wheel housing 100 on the wheel housing mounting bench 2. When the control device does not obtain the position information of the wheel housing 100 in the wheel housing box 1 on the wheel housing mounting bench 2, the robotic arm 22 may not be able to successfully grasp the wheel housing 100, affecting subsequent assembly. When the control device receives the second image information, it can analyze the second image information and obtain the position information of the wheel housing 100 in the wheel housing box 1 on the wheel housing mounting bench 2 according to the positions of the wheel housings 100 in the wheel housing box 1 on the wheel housing mounting bench 2 in the second image information, thus facilitating subsequent assembly.

[0082] S33: Pick up the wheel housing 100 according to the position information.

[0083] The control device controls the robotic arm 22 to pick up the wheel housing 100 according to the position information. The control device actually controls the movement of the robotic arm 22 through the position information, so that the robotic arm 22 can accurately move to the correct wheel housing 100, so that the robotic arm 22 can accurately pick up the wheel housing 100 for subsequent installation.

[0084] In some embodiments, there are multiple installation positions on the wheel housing mounting bench 2 for installing the wheel housing box 1.

[0085] Step S20 specifically includes:

[0086] S21: If there is a wheel housing box 1 in the unloaded state on the wheel housing mounting bench 2, mark the installation position where the wheel housing box 1 is located, and control the transport device 3 to transport the wheel housing box 1 in the fully loaded state to the marked installation position.

[0087] In actual application, multiple mounting positions are provided on the wheel housing mounting bench 2, and a wheel housing box 1 is mounted at each mounting position. When there is a wheel housing box 1 in the no-load state on the wheel housing mounting bench 2, it indicates that this wheel housing box 1 needs to be replaced with a wheel housing box 1 in the full-load state. Before the control device controls the transport device 3 to transport the wheel housing box 1 in the full-load state, the control device will first mark the mounting position where the wheel housing box 1 to be replaced is located. After that, the control device will control the transport device 3 to transport the wheel housing box 1 to the marked mounting position, thereby completing the supplementary feeding of the wheel housing 100.

[0088] Multiple mounting positions are provided on the wheel housing mounting bench 2, so that multiple wheel housing boxes 1 are mounted. Therefore, when replacing the wheel housing box 1, the tire assembly system can also install the wheel housing 100 in other wheel housing boxes 1, so as to ensure the efficiency of the tire assembly system in assembling the wheel housing.

[0089] In some embodiments, step S21 specifically includes:

[0090] S211: Control the transport device 3 to drive the wheel housing box 1 in the full-load state to move towards the marked mounting position, and control the transport device 3 to adaptively connect the wheel housing box 1 to the marked mounting position.

[0091] In this embodiment, when the transport device 3 transports the wheel housing box 1 in the full-load state, it needs to contact the wheel housing mounting bench 2 to transport the wheel housing box 1 in the full-load state to the wheel housing mounting bench 2. When the control device controls the transport device 3 to transport the wheel housing box 1 in the full-load state, the transport device 3 will drive the wheel housing box 1 to move towards the marked mounting position, so that the wheel housing box 1 moves from the transport device 3 to the wheel housing mounting bench 2, thus completing the feeding. When the wheel housing box 1 in the full-load state moves to the marked mounting position, the wheel housing box 1 will be adaptively connected to the wheel housing mounting bench 2, so that the wheel housing box 1 is more stably mounted on the wheel housing mounting bench 2.

[0092] The present application also proposes a control device, which includes a memory, a processor, and a control program of the tire assembly system stored on the memory and operable on the processor. The control program of the tire assembly system is configured to be able to implement the steps of the control method of the tire assembly system as described in any one of the above embodiments.

[0093] The present application also proposes a storage medium, on which a control program of the tire assembly system is stored. When the control program of the tire assembly system is executed by a processor, it implements the steps of the control method of the tire assembly system as described in any one of the above embodiments.

[0094] The technical features of the above-described embodiments can be combined arbitrarily. For the sake of concise description, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, it should be considered as the scope recorded in this specification.

[0095] The above-described embodiments merely represent several implementation manners of the present application. The description is relatively specific and detailed, but it should not be construed as a limitation on the scope of the invention patent. It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the concept of the present application, several modifications and improvements can still be made, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present application. Therefore, the protection scope of the patent of the present application shall be subject to the appended claims.
