DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0028] In order to make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of the present invention easier to understand, the present invention is described in detail in the following embodiments with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0029] Example
[0030] Figure 1 It is a structural diagram of a mounting device for automobile interior parts clips and workpieces.
[0031] like Figure 1As shown, this embodiment provides a device for installing a clip and a workpiece on an automotive interior component, comprising a clip grasping device 100, a workpiece grasping device 200, and a workpiece clamping device 300. The clip grasping device 100 is used to grasp and move the clip 1, the workpiece grasping device 200 is used to grasp and move the workpiece 2, and the workpiece clamping device 300 is used to support the workpiece. Each component is described in detail below.
[0032] Figure 2 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a buckle grabbing device 100. Figure 3 2 is a schematic structural diagram of the buckle grabbing mechanism 110 .
[0033] like Figure 2 As shown, the buckle grasping device 100 includes a buckle grasping mechanism 110 and a first six-axis robot 120 . The buckle grasping mechanism 110 is used to grasp multiple buckles 1 at one time, and the first six-axis robot 120 is used to drive the buckle grasping mechanism 110 to move.
[0034] like Figure 3 As shown, the buckle grabbing mechanism 110 includes a first mounting seat 111 , a plurality of first cylinders 112 , and a plurality of buckle grabbing heads 113 .
[0035] The first mounting base 111 includes a mounting plate 1111, a first connecting flange 1112, and a first connecting arm 1113 connecting the two. The mounting plate 1111 is circular and is used to mount the first cylinder 112 and the snap-on gripping head 113. The first connecting flange 1112 is used to connect to the first six-axis robot 120. A valve island for connecting and controlling the multiple first cylinders 112 is also fixed to the first connecting arm 1113.
[0036] Multiple first cylinders 112 are evenly distributed along the circumference on the mounting plate 1111 of the first mounting seat 111, and the fixed end of each first cylinder 112 is fixed on the mounting plate 1111. The piston end of each first cylinder 112 is perpendicular to the mounting plate 1111 and a snap grab head 113 is installed thereon. The first cylinder 112 is used to drive the snap grab head 113 to move in a direction perpendicular to the mounting plate 1111, thereby realizing the feeding and retracting action of the snap grab head 113.
[0037] Figure 4 It is a structural diagram of the first cylinder 112 and the buckle grabbing head 113. Figure 5 It is a schematic diagram of the decomposition of the snap-on grabbing head 113 after removing the optical fiber sensor 1134.
[0038] like Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, each snap-on grabbing head 113 includes a grabbing seat 1131 and two clamping blocks 1132 , two springs 1133 and an optical fiber sensor 1134 mounted on the grabbing seat 1131 .
[0039] A first groove 11311 for accommodating the buckle 1 is provided at the center of the top of the grab seat 1131. The extension direction of the first groove 11311 corresponds to the radial direction of the mounting plate 1111. The cross-section of the first groove 11311 matches the cross-section of the buckle 1 to be grabbed. In this embodiment, the cross-sections of the first groove 11311 and the buckle 1 are both approximately triangular. The bottom of the first groove 11311 is also provided with a raised positioning groove 11312 for positioning the buckle 1. The bottom of the grab seat 1131 is provided with multiple connection holes for connecting to the piston end of the first cylinder 112.
[0040] Both sides of the gripping seat 1131 are provided with second grooves 11313 for accommodating clamping blocks 1132. The tops of the two second grooves 11313 are connected to the two sides of the first groove 11311, respectively, allowing the tops of the two clamping blocks 1132 to clamp the buckle 1. The two clamping blocks 1132 are respectively disposed in the two second grooves 11313. The middle portion of each clamping block 1132 is rotatably connected to the sidewall of the second groove 11313 via a pin. The top side of each clamping block 1132 facing the first groove 11311 is formed with a protrusion 11321 for gripping the side of the buckle 1, effectively preventing the buckle 1 from falling off. A spring 1133 is connected between the same side of the bottom of each clamping block 1132 and the sidewall of the corresponding second groove 11313. The spring 1133 is used to drive the clamping block 1132 to rotate to clamp the buckle 1.
[0041] A third groove 11314 for installing the optical fiber sensor 1134 is provided on the other side of the grabbing seat 1131. The third groove 11314 is inclined to the bottom of the first groove 11311. The optical fiber sensor 1134 is inserted into the third groove 11314, and the positioning groove 11312 is made of transparent material to allow the light of the optical fiber sensor 1134 to pass through. The optical fiber sensor 1134 is used to detect whether a buckle 1 is clamped in the first groove 11311.
[0042] During use, a plurality of clips 1 are placed on a special loading tray, waiting to be grabbed by the clip grabbing device 100 and assembled onto a workpiece.
[0043] The process of the buckle grabbing device 100 grabbing the buckle 1 is as follows: the first six-axis robot 120 drives the buckle grabbing mechanism 110 to move to a certain distance directly above the loading tray, so that the buckle grabbing mechanism 110 faces downward and directly toward the loading tray. Then, the piston ends of all the first cylinders 112 of the buckle grabbing mechanism 110 extend downward respectively, driving the buckle grabbing heads 113 connected to them to move downward to grab the buckle 1. For each buckle grabbing head 113, the buckle 1 will be stuck into the first groove 11311 of the grabbing seat 1131. Specifically, when the buckle 1 is stuck into the first groove 11311, the two clamping blocks 1132 will be slightly flipped to the sides due to being squeezed, so that the buckle 1 enters the first groove 11311. Then, the two clamping blocks 1132 are reset under the action of their respective springs 1133. The tops of the two clamping blocks 1132 clamp on the two side surfaces of the buckle 1 from both sides to prevent the buckle 1 from falling off. When the buckle 1 is inserted into the first groove 11311, the positioning groove 11312 in the first groove 11311 positions the buckle 1 to prevent it from deflecting. The optical fiber sensor 1134 detects the captured buckle 1 and sends a signal that the capture is complete. The first cylinder 112 drives the buckle grasping head 113 to retract. In this way, the buckle grasping device 100 can grasp multiple buckles 1 at a time.
[0044] The process of assembling the buckle 1 of the buckle grasping device 100 is as follows: the first six-axis robot 120 drives the buckle grasping mechanism 110 to move to a certain distance from a buckle position of the workpiece, so that the buckle 1 on a buckle grasping head 113 of the buckle grasping mechanism 110 is aligned with the buckle position. Then, the first cylinder 112 corresponding to the buckle grasping head 113 drives the buckle grasping head 113 to extend, so that the buckle 1 is stuck in the buckle position. Next, the first cylinder 112 drives the buckle grasping head 113 to retract. During the retraction process of the buckle grasping head 113, the two clamping blocks 1132 are slightly flipped to both sides due to being squeezed, so that the buckle 1 stuck in the buckle position can be easily detached from the buckle grasping head 113, completing the separation. Repeating this process can complete the assembly of all buckles 1.
[0045] Figure 6 2 is a schematic structural diagram of a workpiece grasping device 200 .
[0046] like Figure 6 As shown, the workpiece grasping device 200 includes a workpiece grasping mechanism 210 and a second six-axis robot 220 . The workpiece grasping mechanism 210 is used to grasp multiple workpieces 2 at one time, and the second six-axis robot 220 is used to drive the workpiece grasping mechanism 210 to move.
[0047] Figure 7 is a structural diagram of the workpiece grasping mechanism 210, Figure 8 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the workpiece grasping mechanism 210 after grasping the workpiece
[0048] like Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the workpiece grasping mechanism 210 includes a second mounting seat 211 , a plurality of vacuum suction cups 212 , an adapter seat 213 , and a vacuum generator 214 .
[0049] The second mounting base 211 includes two transverse tubes 2111, two longitudinal tubes 2112, and four first engaging members 2113. The two transverse tubes 2111 are arranged in parallel, and the ends of each transverse tube 2111 are connected to the two longitudinal tubes 2112 via first engaging members 2113, so that the entire second mounting base 2111 is in an I-shape.
[0050] A plurality of vacuum suction cups 212 are mounted on the two longitudinal tubes 2112 of the second mounting base 211. Specifically, the plurality of vacuum suction cups 212 are divided into four groups, and each group of vacuum suction cups 212 consists of at least two vacuum suction cups 212, which are used to vacuum absorb one workpiece 2. Every two groups of vacuum suction cups 212 are mounted on one longitudinal tube 2112, and the two groups of vacuum suction cups 212 on each longitudinal tube 2112 are arranged in opposite directions. The directions of the individual vacuum suction cups 212 of each group of vacuum suction cups 212 are the same and are perpendicular to the transverse tube 2111 and the longitudinal tube 2112. In this embodiment, each vacuum suction cup 212 is mounted on the longitudinal tube 2112 by a clamp and an angle code. In this way, the workpiece grasping mechanism 210 can absorb four workpieces 2 through four groups of vacuum suction cups 212, and the two workpieces 2 on the same side will not interfere with each other, thereby improving the grasping efficiency.
[0051] The adapter 213 is used to connect to the second six-axis robot 220 and includes a second connecting flange 2131, a second connecting arm 2132, and a second engaging member 2133. Specifically, the second connecting flange 2131 is connected to the terminal output shaft of the second six-axis robot 220. The second connecting arm 2132 is arranged parallel to the longitudinal tube 2112 of the second mounting base 211. One end of the second connecting arm 2132 is connected to the second connecting flange 2131, and the other end is connected to the middle portion of the two transverse tubes 2111 of the second mounting base 211 via the second engaging member 2133.
[0052] The vacuum generator 134 is connected to the plurality of vacuum suction cups 212 and is mounted on the second embracing member 2133 of the adapter 213 .
[0053] The workpiece grasping device 200 grasps a workpiece 2 as follows: the second six-axis robot 220 drives the workpiece grasping mechanism 210 to move directly above the workpiece 2 to be grasped. The workpiece grasping mechanism 210 uses two sets of vacuum suction cups 212 located on the same surface to simultaneously grasp two workpieces 2. After grasping two workpieces 2 on one side, the second six-axis robot 220 drives the workpiece grasping mechanism 210 to flip over. The workpiece grasping mechanism 210 then uses two sets of vacuum suction cups 212 on the other surface to simultaneously grasp two more workpieces 2. In this way, the workpiece grasping device 200 can grasp four workpieces 2 and then transfer them together.
[0054] Figure 9 is a structural diagram of a workpiece clamping device 300, Figure 10 It is a schematic structural diagram of the workpiece 2 after being mounted on the workpiece clamping device 300.
[0055] like Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, the workpiece clamping device 300 includes a support platform 310 and two support seats 320 installed on the support platform 310 , a plurality of positioning blocks 330 and a plurality of clamping mechanisms 340 .
[0056] Two support seats 320 are mounted 180° symmetrically on the top surface of the support platform 310. Each support seat 320 is shaped to match the workpiece 2 and is used to support a single workpiece 2. The relative position between the two support seats 320 corresponds to the relative position of two workpieces 2 grasped on either side of the workpiece grasping mechanism 210 of the workpiece grasping device 200. In this way, the workpiece grasping device 200 can simultaneously place two workpieces 2 on two support seats 320.
[0057] A plurality of positioning blocks 330 are distributed at the edges of the two support seats 320 for positioning the edges of the workpiece 2. Figure 10 In this embodiment, each positioning block 330 is mounted on the top surface of the support platform 310 via an angle bracket.
[0058] Multiple clamping mechanisms 340 are distributed beside the two support bases 320 and are used to clamp the workpiece 2 on the support base 320 to install the clip 1. Each clamping mechanism 340 includes an articulated base 341, a second cylinder 342, and a clamping block 343. The articulated base 341 has a base mounted on the support platform 310 and a rotating block rotatably connected to the base. The cylinder body and piston end of the second cylinder 342 are respectively hinged to the base and rotating block of the articulated base 341. The clamping block 343 is fixed to the rotating block and has multiple distributed pressure heads. When the piston end of the second cylinder 342 retracts, the clamping block 343 is lifted upward by the rotating block driven by the second cylinder 342. When the piston end of the second cylinder 342 extends, the clamping block 343 is pressed downward by the rotating block driven by the second cylinder 342 onto the support base 320. When the workpiece 2 is placed on the support base 320, the clamping block 343 can press the workpiece 2 against the support base 320. In this embodiment, there are four clamping mechanisms 340, with two clamping mechanisms 340 corresponding to each support base 320.
[0059] The operating process of this device for installing clips and workpieces for automotive interior parts is as follows: First, the clip grasping device 100 grasps multiple clips 1 from the clip loading tray, and the workpiece grasping device 200 grasps four workpieces 2 from the loading area of the workpiece 2. Then, the workpiece grasping device 200 places two workpieces 2 located on the same side onto the two support blocks 320 of the workpiece clamping device 300. The clamping mechanisms 340 adjacent to each support block 320 clamp the workpieces 2 on each side. Next, the clip grasping device 100 sequentially installs the clips 1 on the clipping locations of the two workpieces 2. After the clips 1 are installed, the clamping mechanisms 340 are released, and the workpiece grasping device 200 grasps the two workpieces 2 and flips them over, placing two workpieces 2 on the other side onto the two support blocks 320 of the workpiece clamping device 300. The clip grasping device 100 then installs the clips 1 on the clipping locations of the other two workpieces 2. Similarly, after the buckle 1 is installed, the clamping mechanism 340 is released, and the workpiece grasping device 200 grasps another two workpieces 2. At this time, the workpiece grasping device 200 has grasped four workpieces 2 with the buckle 1 installed, which can be transferred to the quality inspection area, and each buckle position on the workpiece 2 can be inspected by automated or manual methods.
[0060] It should be noted that the specifications of the first six-axis robot 120 and the second six-axis robot 220 can be adjusted according to the actual site conditions. They can adopt different specifications as shown in the figure of this embodiment, or they can adopt the same specifications as needed.
