Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this invention, "a plurality of" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0040] This invention provides a press-type snap-fit ​​installation device for assembling automotive trim parts, such as... Figure 1-2 As shown, the buckle installation device includes: a workbench 1, a robot 2 is provided at the top of the workbench 1, a lifting rod 17 is provided on the robot 2, a pressing installation mechanism 3 is provided at the bottom of the lifting rod 17, a first feeding mechanism 4 is provided on both sides of the robot 2, and a plurality of positioning blocks 5 are provided at intervals at the top of the workbench 1, the positioning blocks 5 being located below the pressing installation mechanism 3.

[0041] The working principle and beneficial effects of the above technical solution are as follows: Before installing the clips on the automotive trim parts, the automotive trim parts are fixed to the top of the workbench 1 by multiple positioning blocks 5. The first feeding mechanism 4 is started, and the first feeding mechanism 4 begins to supply material to the installation equipment. The first feeding mechanism 4 is installed inside the workbench 1, and its top extends out of the workbench 1. The robot 2 is started, and the robot 2 drives the pressing and installing mechanism 3 to move. The pressing and installing mechanism 3 picks up the clips fed by the first feeding mechanism 4. The robot 2 and the lifting rod 17 move the pressing and installing mechanism 3 to the clip installation position. The pressing and installing mechanism 3 is then started, and the clips are installed in place. Because the position of the pressing and installing mechanism is adjusted by the robot and the lifting rod, the automotive trim parts are fixed by the positioning blocks, and the material is supplied to the pressing and installing mechanism by the first feeding mechanism, the clip installation process is automated, reducing the labor intensity of workers. The clip installation accuracy is high, and the installation quality is good. At the same time, the pressing and installing mechanism is equipped with multiple suction nozzles, which can pick up and install multiple clips at one time, greatly improving the installation efficiency of the clips and improving the production quality of the automotive trim parts.

[0042] In one embodiment, such as Figure 3 As shown, the pressing and mounting mechanism 3 includes: a base plate 6, a rotary motor 7 is provided at the bottom end of the base plate 6, the output shaft of the rotary motor 7 passes through a rotary origin switch 8 and is connected to a vertically arranged second pressing component 9, the rotary origin switch 8 is provided at the bottom end of the base plate 6, a vertically arranged first pressing component 10 is provided on one side of the outer wall of the base plate 6, and a sleeve 18 is provided at the top end of the base plate 6, the sleeve 18 being detachably connected to the lifting rod 17.

[0043] The working principle and beneficial effects of the above technical solution are as follows: When installing the buckle, after the robot 2 controls the pressing and installation mechanism 3 to pick up the buckle, it moves to the buckle installation position and starts the rotary motor 7 to drive the second pressing component 9 to rotate. The angle of the second pressing component 9 is adjusted, and the first pressing component 10 and the second pressing component 9 press the buckle into place. The rotary origin switch 8 is used to limit the rotation range of the rotary motor 7, so that the rotary motor 7 can complete the origin reset. The sleeve 18 is used with the lifting rod 17 to facilitate the robot 2 to adjust the position of the pressing and installation mechanism 3.

[0044] In one embodiment, the first pressing assembly 10 includes a first fixing plate 11, the first fixing plate 11 is disposed on the base plate 6, a first pressing cylinder 12 is disposed on the side wall of the first fixing plate 11 away from the rotary motor 7, a first suction nozzle 13 is disposed on the side wall of the first pressing cylinder 12 near the second pressing assembly 9, and a first inductive switch 13 is disposed on the first pressing cylinder 12.

[0045] The working principle and beneficial effects of the above technical solution are as follows: When the buckle needs to be installed, the robot 2 moves the first pressing component 10 above the buckle, activates the first pressing cylinder 12, and drives the first suction nozzle 13 to move downward, so that the first suction nozzle 13 approaches and picks up the buckle. The first suction nozzle 13 is electrically connected to the digital display pressure gauge, which displays the vacuum value of the first suction nozzle 13 in real time to determine whether the product has been picked up, preventing missed pick-up or missed installation. After the robot 2 picks up the buckle, it moves the first pressing component 10 to the installation position. The first pressing cylinder 12 drives the first suction nozzle 13 to move downward and press the buckle into place. The first inductive switch 13 is used to determine whether the first pressing cylinder 12 and the first suction nozzle 13 have pressed the buckle into place. When the buckle is pressed into place, the first inductive switch 13 closes the first pressing cylinder 12 and the first suction nozzle 13. The buckle installation and positioning are accurate and the installation quality is high.

[0046] In one embodiment, the second pressing assembly 9 includes a second fixing plate 14, which is connected to the output shaft of the rotary motor 7. A second pressing cylinder 15 is provided on the side wall of the second fixing plate 14 away from the rotary motor 7. A second air nozzle 16 is provided on the side wall of the second pressing cylinder 15 near the first pressing assembly 10. The cross-section of the second air nozzle 16 is U-shaped. A second inductive switch 36 is provided on the second pressing cylinder 15.

[0047] The working principle and beneficial effects of the above technical solution are as follows: When a buckle needs to be installed, robot 2 moves the second pressing component 9 above the buckle, activates the second pressing cylinder 15, and drives the second air nozzle 16 downward, so that the second air nozzle 16 approaches and picks up the buckle. The second air nozzle 16 is electrically connected to a digital pressure gauge, which displays the vacuum value of the second air nozzle 16 in real time to determine whether the product has been picked up, preventing missed pickup or installation. After picking up the buckle, robot 2 moves the second pressing component 9 to the installation position, activates the rotary motor 7, drives the second pressing component 9 to rotate, and then moves the second pressing component 9 to the installation position. When the second air nozzle 16 is adjusted to a suitable angle, the second pressing cylinder 15 is activated to move the second air nozzle 16 forward, pressing the buckle into place. The second sensor switch 36 is used to determine whether the second pressing cylinder 15 and the second air nozzle 16 have pressed the buckle into place. When the buckle is pressed into place, the second sensor switch 36 closes the second pressing cylinder 15 and the second air nozzle 16 to ensure accurate buckle installation. The second pressing component 9 can adjust the installation angle of the buckle according to the angle of the mounting position on the automotive trim, increasing the types and number of buckles that can be installed, and improving the installation accuracy and efficiency of the buckles.

[0049] The working principle and beneficial effects of the above technical solution are as follows: The first feeding mechanism 4 and the second feeding mechanism 19 are used to supply clips to the installation equipment. Before the installation equipment installs the clips, the clips are placed in the vibratory feeder 22. The vibratory feeder 22 is started, and the vibratory feeder 22 arranges the clips and sends them into the guide rail groove 24. The guide rail groove 24 sends the clips into the clip transfer assembly 25. The clip transfer assembly 25 transfers the received clips, which is convenient for the pressing installation mechanism 3 to pick up the clips. At the same time, it receives the next clip. The clip supply is safe and orderly, avoiding failures during the feeding process and improving the installation efficiency and quality of the clips.

A gripper 59 is provided on the lower inner wall of the rotating arm 57. A third slider 60 is slidably connected to the box 55. The third slider 60 can reciprocate within the box 55. A vertically oriented spring 61 is provided inside the box 55. The top end of the spring 61 is connected to the inner wall of the top of the box 55, and the bottom end of the spring 61 is connected to the top end of the third slider 60. A sliding groove 62 is provided on the third slider 60. The sliding groove 62 is composed of two first sliding grooves 621, two second sliding grooves 622, and two third sliding grooves 623 that are symmetrically arranged and connected in sequence. The angle between the first slide groove 621 and the second slide groove 622 is greater than 90 degrees, and the angle between the second slide groove 622 and the third slide groove 623 is less than 90 degrees. A first vertical connecting rod 63 is provided inside the box body 55. The top end of the first connecting rod 63 is connected to the inner wall of the top of the box body 55. A fourth slider 64 is provided at the bottom end of the first connecting rod 63. The fourth slider 64 can reciprocate within the slide groove 62. A vertical moving rod 65 is provided inside the box body 55. The top end of the moving rod 65 is connected to the third slider 60. The bottom end of the moving rod 65 passes through the bottom wall of the box body 55, the top wall of the U-shaped groove 56, and connects to the middle of the second connecting rod 66. The moving rod 65 can reciprocate within the box body 55. The two ends of the second connecting rod 66 are rotatably connected to the rotating arm 57 on the same side.

[0060] The working principle and beneficial effects of the above technical solution are as follows: When the identification probe 39 detects a misaligned clip on the automotive trim part, the drive motor 40 is started, which drives the first crank 82 to rotate, causing the rack 48 to reciprocate on the first slide body 47. This causes the rack 48 and the slot body 67 to intermittently pass through the opening 44 and extend out of the transmission box 41, causing the first slide body 47 to swing back and forth. Through the gear and rack transmission between the rack 48 and the gear 46, the gear 46 is driven to rotate forward and backward, causing the sleeve 45 to rotate forward and backward, causing the rotating rod 43 to rotate forward and backward, and causing the telescopic rod 49 to rotate forward and backward, so that the second slider 54 moves in the horizontal part of the U-shaped slide 52. During the rotation of the sleeve 45, the first slider 51 is located at the top of the V-shaped groove 50. When the second slider 54 moves to the rightmost end of the horizontal part of the U-shaped groove 52, the telescopic rod 49 rotates to the side closer to the opening 44. The rotating rod 43 moves downward along the second slider 54, causing the second slider 54 to move upward along the vertical part of the right side of the U-shaped groove 52. The rack 48 and gear 46 drive the sleeve 45 to continue rotating, causing the first slider 51 to move downward along the right side of the V-shaped groove 50, driving the telescopic rod 49 and its upper box 55 to move downward. When the sleeve 45 rotates back, the rotating rod 43, the telescopic rod 49, and its upper box 55 return to their original positions upward.

[0061] When the telescopic rod 49 rotates to the side away from the opening 44, the rotating rod 43, the telescopic rod 49 and the box 55 on it move downward along the left vertical part of the U-shaped slide 52 and the left slide of the V-shaped slide 50. When the sleeve 45 rotates, the rotating rod 43, the telescopic rod 49 and the box 55 on it return to their original positions upward. Through the superposition of the motion, the rotating rod 43 rotates intermittently in both forward and reverse directions, and moves up and down at the extreme positions of forward and reverse directions, driving the box 55 and the gripping mechanism on it to rotate intermittently in both forward and reverse directions, and move up and down at the extreme positions of forward and reverse directions.

[0062] When the gripping mechanism moves downwards near the opening 44, the fourth slider 64 is located at the connection of the two first sliding grooves 621. After the second connecting rod 66 contacts the buckle, the gripping mechanism continues to move downwards, causing the second connecting rod 66 to move upwards, driving the two rotating arms 57 to rotate upwards, causing the two grippers 59 to close and grip the buckle. During the downward movement of the gripping mechanism, the slot body 67 extends out of the transmission box 41 to fix the buckle and prevent it from shifting. The second connecting rod 66 drives the moving rod 65 to move upwards, driving the third slider 64 to move upwards. Block 60 moves upward within the box 55, causing the fourth slider 64 to move downward sequentially along the first slide groove 621, the second slide groove 622, and the third slide groove 623 to the connection point of the two third slide grooves 623. This compresses the spring 61, increasing its elasticity and fixing the fourth slider 64 at the connection point of the two third slide grooves 623. This allows the two grippers 59 to firmly grasp the buckle, preventing it from falling off. When the rotating rod 43 and the telescopic rod 49 drive the gripping mechanism to move upward, the gripping mechanism removes the buckle from the car trim.

[0063] When the rotating rod 43 and the telescopic rod 49 drive the gripping mechanism to rotate to the side away from the opening 44 and move downward to put the buckle into the storage box 42, after the buckle contacts the inner wall of the bottom end of the storage box 42, the gripping mechanism continues to move downward, so that the second connecting rod 66 contacts the buckle. The buckle pushes the second connecting rod 66 upward, driving the moving rod 65 upward, driving the third slider 60 to move upward within the box 55, so that the fourth slider 64 moves along the third slide groove 623 to the connection point between the third slide groove 623 and the second slide groove 622. When the rotating rod 43 and the telescopic rod 49 drive the gripping mechanism to move upward... When the second connecting rod 66 separates from the buckle, the spring 61 returns to its original state, causing the third slider 60 to move downward within the box 55, causing the fourth slider 64 to move upward sequentially along the third slide groove 623, the second slide groove 622, and the first slide groove 621 to the connection point of the two first slide grooves 621, causing the moving rod 65 and the second connecting rod 66 to move downward, causing the two rotating arms 57 to rotate downward, causing the two grippers 59 to release, causing the gripping mechanism to release the buckle, and the rotating rod 43 and the telescopic rod 49 to drive the gripping mechanism to continue moving upward, causing the gripping mechanism to separate from the buckle, and the buckle to be placed in the storage box 42;

[0064] The clip removal device removes improperly installed clips based on the identification of the identification probe 39. Clip removal is convenient and efficient, and will not damage the removed clips or automotive trim parts. At the same time, the clips placed in the storage box 42 can be transferred to the vibratory feeder 22 for re-feeding.

[0065] In one embodiment, such as Figure 11-12 As shown, the workbench 1 is equipped with a heat dissipation and dust removal device, which includes: a motor 68, a second crank 69, a swing arm 70, and a second slide rail 71.

[0066] A heat dissipation vent 72 is provided on one side wall of the workbench 1. A filter screen 73 is provided inside the heat dissipation vent 72. A motor 68 is provided on one side of the filter screen 73. The motor 68 is located on the inner wall of the workbench 1. The output shaft of the motor 68 is connected to one end of the second crank 69. A second slide rail 71 is provided on the inner wall of the bottom end of the workbench 1. A sixth slider 74 is provided on the second slide rail 71. The sixth slider 74 can reciprocate on the second slide rail 71. A rocker arm 70 is provided inside the workbench 1. The sixth slider 74 is rotatably connected to the rocker arm 70. The rocker arm 70 is located on the side of the sixth slider 74 closer to the filter screen 73.

[0067] One end of the swing arm 70 is rotatably connected to the other end of the second crank 69. A vertical connecting rod 75 is provided on the inner wall of the top of the worktable 1. The bottom end of the connecting rod 75 is rotatably connected to a third slide body 76. The opening of the third slide body 76 faces the filter screen 73. The other end of the swing arm 70 is rotatably connected to a fifth slider 77. The fifth slider 77 can reciprocate within the third slide body 76. The two ends of the second slide body 71 are respectively provided with first buffer blocks 78. The two ends of the third slide body 76 are respectively provided with second buffer blocks 79. A wind plate 80 is provided on the side wall of the swing arm 70 near the filter screen 73. A brush 81 is provided on the side wall of the wind plate 80 near the filter screen 73. The brush 81 is in contact with the filter screen 73.

[0068] The working principle and beneficial effects of the above technical solution are as follows: the heat dissipation vent 72 is used to dissipate the heat generated by the operation of the internal mechanism of the workbench 1; the filter screen 73 prevents the internal mechanism of the workbench 1 from being contaminated by dust; after a period of use, the filter screen 73 will accumulate a large amount of dust; the motor 68 is started, which drives the second crank 69 to rotate, which drives the rocker arm 70 to move back and forth while swinging up and down around the sixth slider 74 as the axis, which drives the sixth slider 74 to move back and forth on the second slide rail 71, which drives the fifth slider 77 to move back and forth while swinging up and down around the sixth slider 74 as the axis, so that the fifth slider 77 is in the third slide rail. The fifth slider 77 reciprocates within the third slide rail 76. When the second crank 69 is located on the side of the motor 68 away from the rocker arm 70, the fifth slider 77 moves upward within the third slide rail 76, which is in a vertical position. When the second crank 69 is located on the side of the motor 68 closer to the rocker arm 70, the fifth slider 77 moves to the left while swinging downwards about the sixth slider 74, causing the third slide rail 76 to rotate. In summary, the fifth slider 77 first moves upward within the third slide rail 76, then moves to the left while swinging downwards about the sixth slider 74, causing the third slide rail 76 to rotate. The third slide body 76 rotates intermittently, blowing airflow to cool the internal mechanism of the workbench 1 and improve heat dissipation efficiency. The swing arm 70 moves intermittently along the second slide body 71, moving left and right while swinging up and down around the sixth slider 74. Then, it swings intermittently around the sixth slider 74, driving the air plate 80 and the brush 81 to move left and right along the second slide body 71 while swinging up and down around the sixth slider 74. Then, it swings intermittently around the sixth slider 74, and the brush 81 performs a scanning cleaning of the filter screen 73, which is highly efficient and has a wide cleaning range. The impact on the filter screen 73 is small, thus reducing the impact on the heat dissipation of the filter screen 73 and improving the service life of the filter screen 73; the sixth slider 74 intermittently collides with the two first buffer blocks 78, and the fifth slider 77 intermittently collides with the two second buffer blocks 79, shaking off the dust adhering to the brush 81, keeping the brush 81 clean and improving the cleaning efficiency of the brush 81; the air deflector 80 blows airflow, blowing the dust swept off by the brush 81 and the dust shaken off the brush 81 out of the worktable 1, avoiding dust contamination of the internal mechanism of the worktable 1, and at the same time the air deflector 80 blows air to cool down the filter screen 73, improving the heat dissipation efficiency.
