[0002] During the assembly process of a shell, the shell body and the warhead need to be assembled and closed, and there are requirements for the assembly force. In the existing assembly and closing process, the shell body and the warhead are manually positioned on both sides of the closing machine, and the sliding table is manually pushed to assemble the warhead and the shell body. After assembly, the joint of the warhead and the shell body is closed by a closing fixture. The existing assembly and closing process is semi-automatic or completely manual, which requires manual participation. It not only has a large labor intensity, low production efficiency, cannot achieve real-time detection, but also has a certain degree of danger. There is no equipment in the domestic shell production field that can achieve automatic assembly and closing. There is an urgent need for an automatic assembly and closing equipment with high automation, which can ensure the assembly accuracy and achieve real-time detection. Summary of the Invention

[0046] The working principle of the present invention is:

[0047] The projectile body 5 is carried by the handling robot on the production line to the sliding table assembly 2. The tail end of the projectile body 5 abuts against the cartridge groove, and the middle section is located on the cartridge bracket 21. Then, the projectile support frame 43 is lifted by the projectile support cylinder 42, and the handling robot then transports the warhead 8 to the projectile support assembly 6. After the handling is completed, the front slide plate assembly 11 is driven by the cylinder B53 to slide horizontally along the guide rail 3 towards the direction of the warhead 8. The tooling connecting rod 24 passes through the sizing die 9 of the sizing machine and slides to the designated position. At this time, the projectile pushing tooling 23 comes into contact with the warhead 8. At this time, the projectile support cylinder 42 retracts, the projectile support frame 43 drops, and the sliding table assembly 2 is driven by the cylinder A7 to slide horizontally in the opposite direction along the guide rail 3. The cylinder B53 of the front slide plate assembly 11 is exactly the same as the cylinder A7 of the sliding table assembly 2, but is equipped with a pressure reducing valve. At this time, the front slide plate assembly 11 is horizontally pushed by the sliding table assembly 2 along the guide rail 3 towards the direction of the electric cylinder assembly 10. The front slide plate assembly 11 and the sliding table assembly 2 jointly support the projectile body 5 and the warhead 8 at both ends of the product and slide towards the direction of the electric cylinder assembly 10. At this time, the warhead 8 passes through the sizing die 9 of the sizing machine, and the driving band fits with the internal profiling contour. At this time, the product reaches the assembling position. When reaching the designated position, the stop block 36 is lifted by the stop block cylinder 32 and passes through the hollow groove 50 of the slide plate 15 to contact the baffle plate 20. The explosion-proof servo motor 39 drives the electric cylinder 40, so that the electric cylinder connecting rod 38 extends out, and the top disc type weighing sensor 37 presses against the disc spring assembly 26, pushing the front slide plate assembly 11. Since the position of the sliding table assembly 2 is locked by the 6° wedge angle of the stop block assembly 4, at this time, the assembling force is applied to the warhead 8. The disc type weighing sensor 37 detects the force and displacement in real time and feeds the signal back to the explosion-proof servo motor 39 in real time to achieve closed-loop control and accurately complete the assembly of the warhead 8 and the projectile body 5.

[0048] After the assembly is completed, the electric cylinder assembly 10 retracts and the force application stops. At this time, the driving band is inside the sizing die 9 of the sizing machine, and the sizing machine hydraulic system 12 drives the sizing die 9 to close. The profiling inner contour of the sizing die 9 tightens and envelopes the part of the driving band to complete the sizing of the product.

[0049] After the sizing is completed, the stop block cylinder 32 retracts, the stop block 36 drops, and the sliding table assembly 2 and the front slide plate assembly 11 jointly move in the opposite direction of the electric cylinder assembly 10 under the action of the two cylinders to transport the product back to the initial position. When the sliding table assembly 2 and the front slide plate assembly 11 move in place, the projectile support cylinder 42 extends, the projectile support frame 43 rises, and the projectile support assembly 6 provides support for the product. At this time, the front slide plate assembly 11 disengages from the product and returns to the initial position. The handling robot removes the finished product, and each component is in the initial position, waiting to assemble and size the next product. During the entire assembly and sizing process, the cylinder actions are simple, and there is positioning during assembly, which can ensure the fixed position of the product at each moment.

[0050] The above are only embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, expansions, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention are all included in the protection scope of the present invention.
