[0060] Specifically, the power unit 224 is a hydraulic cylinder. It is understood that the hydraulic cylinder is a general-purpose or procured component. The power unit 224 can be a pneumatic cylinder or a gear lifting device, etc. Those skilled in the art are capable of selecting the appropriate specifications, models, and parameters according to actual needs.

[0061] Continue to refer to Figures 8 to 10 The punch actuator 226 includes, from top to bottom, a cover 227, a punch connector 229, a punch pressing member 232, and a punch pusher 235. One side of the drive connector 225 passes through the cover 227 and abuts against the punch connector 229. The punch pressing member 232 has a mounting hole 233. The punch actuator 226 also includes a punch 238, which is disposed in the mounting hole 233. The top surface of the punch 238 is flush with the punch connector 229. The bottom surface of 9 abuts against the punch. The punch 232 has a hollow guide portion 234. The guide portion 234 is connected to and coaxially arranged with the mounting hole 233. The punch pusher 235 has a guide hole 236. At least a portion of the guide portion 234 is inserted into the guide hole 236.

[0062] Specifically, the portion of the drive connector 225 that abuts against the punch connector 229 is cylindrical. The cover 227 has a first receiving groove 228 that is open, and during installation, at least a portion of the drive connector 225 is placed in the first receiving groove 228. The punch connector 229 has a second receiving groove 230 that accommodates the cylindrical portion of the punch connector 229 that abuts against it; during installation, this cylindrical portion is placed in the second receiving groove 230.

[0063] In some embodiments, a guide post 231 is mounted on the punch connector 229, and the bracket 221 has a guide structure 222 with a through hole through which the guide post 231 passes.

[0064] In some embodiments, the punch pressing member 232 and the punch pushing member 235 are arranged at intervals along the vertical direction. The punch actuator 226 further includes an elastic member 239, which abuts against the punch pressing member 232 and the punch pushing member 235 on both sides along the extension and contraction direction of the elastic member 239. Specifically, the elastic member 239 is a helical spring. It is understood that the elastic member 239 can be other forms such as an air spring. Those skilled in the art are capable of selecting the appropriate specifications, models, and parameters according to actual needs.

[0065] In some embodiments, multiple punch assemblies 220 are provided. In this embodiment, five are provided. In other embodiments, multiple supports 221 of the multiple punch assemblies 220 are integrated, that is, multiple second drive devices 223 and punch actuators 226 are mounted on a single support 221. It is understood that the number of punch assemblies 220 can be adjusted according to the specific dimensions of the range hood housing 700.

[0066] The working principle of the range hood housing 700 riveting production line of the present invention is as follows: Manual feeding is performed. The control system 400 controls the first workpiece clamping device 310, the second workpiece clamping device 320, and the third workpiece clamping device 330 to clamp and fix the housing. The second drive device 223 is activated, and the power device 224 drives the drive connector 225 downward. Because the drive connector 225 abuts against the punch connecting plate, it drives the punch connecting plate downward. The downward pressure of the punch connector 229, along with the punch 238 and the punch pressing member 232, moves downward. The guide portion 234 of the punch pressing member 232 moves under the guidance of the guide hole 236 of the punch pusher 235. Continuing to press downward, the end of the punch 238 gradually exposes the guide hole 236, thus inserting into the die and riveting the range hood housing 700. At this time, the elastic member 239 is in a compressed state. The limiting part 237 of the punch pusher 235 restricts the downward pressing of the punch pressure member 232, thereby limiting the stroke of the punch member 238 and preventing overpressure and impact. After riveting, the power unit 224 drives the drive connection to move upward. Due to the release of pressure, the elastic force of the elastic member 239 causes the end of the punch member 238 to retract into the guide hole 236. The guide post 231 and the guide structure 222 guide the entire up and down process to ensure the accuracy of riveting.

[0067] When picking up materials, the first drive device 313 starts and drives the movable joint 314, while the first connecting part 318 moves downward. The second connecting part 319 is rotatably connected to the upper part of the die mounting part 252 and acts as a fulcrum. The movable joint 314 is pulled down by lever, causing the first side part 316 to tilt up and push out the range hood box 700 placed on the corner pressing part 315 for manual picking up.

[0068] The riveting production line for the range hood housing 700 of this invention rivets the left and right side plates and the rear plate of the top and rear plates of the range hood housing 700 together. Manual loading and unloading are performed, and all riveting points are clamped and riveted together in one go, improving production efficiency. For different workpiece models, the die assembly 250 needs to be replaced, and the die assembly 250 can be quickly replaced (manually). Due to different workpiece widths, the left and right movement and stopping position of the riveting pliers 200 needs to be adjusted for model changes. The estimated production cycle time of this production line is as follows: 13 seconds for manual installation of the top and rear plates and left and right side plates of the range hood housing 700, 8 seconds for riveting completion and workpiece ejection, and 5 seconds for workpiece unloading. The estimated production cycle time of this production line is 26 seconds per piece.
