Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of automobile processing equipment, and in particular to an automobile seat component processing device and method. Background Art

[0002] During the hot summer months, cars are often exposed to the sun for extended periods, causing seats to heat up very high, impacting the user experience. Driving for extended periods with your back and buttocks pressed against the seat prevents air circulation and prevents sweat from easily escaping, making it uncomfortable and potentially harmful to the driver. Consequently, modern cars often incorporate ventilation features into their seats. These features include one or more fans installed inside the seat cushions and backrests. When turned on, these fans rotate, drawing heat from the person in the seat through vents into the ventilation cavity, which is then expelled to the outside of the vehicle, achieving the seat's ventilation function. However, during the production process, these seat backs and cushions require plugs to be installed on the surface of the ventilation cavity. After processing, these plugs must be removed to create vents, connecting the ventilation cavity to the outside world. Currently, the plugs on the seat backs or seat cushions are generally removed manually using a clamp, and then the vents are polished using a grinder. Since there are many vents on the seat backs or seat cushions, manual polishing is inefficient and the polished vents are not uniform in size. The polishing process can easily damage the backs or seat cushions, affecting the production efficiency of the seats. Summary of the Invention

[0058] The terms “first”, “second”, etc. are only used for distinguishing descriptions and should not be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0059] In the description of this embodiment, it should be noted that, unless otherwise expressly specified or limited, the terms "provided with," "disposed," "connected," and "connected" should be understood broadly.

Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in this embodiment based on the specific circumstances.

[0060] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, an automobile seat component processing device is used to process the backrest or cushion of the seat, including a frame 1 and also including:

[0061] A driving assembly 2, provided in the frame 1, for driving the components of the seat to flow between different stations;

[0062] A loading assembly 3, provided on the driving assembly 2, for carrying the backrest or the seat cushion;

[0063] a clamping assembly 4, disposed in the frame 1, for clamping an object to be clamped on the backrest or the seat cushion, so that a vent formed after the object to be clamped is taken out communicates with a ventilation cavity in the backrest or the seat cushion;

[0064] A polishing assembly 5 is provided in the frame 1 and is used for polishing and cleaning the vents;

[0065] a detection component 6, provided in the frame 1, for detecting the air flow of the vent;

[0066] The control component is provided on the frame 1 and is used to control the operation of the driving component 2 , the clamping component 4 , the grinding component 5 and the detection component 6 .

[0067] That is to say, the backrest or seat cushion to be processed is placed on the loading component 3, the driving component 2 drives the loading component 3 to move, and the loading component 3 passes through the clamping component 4, the polishing component 5 and the detection component 6 in turn. The clamping component 4 clamps the object to be clamped on the backrest or seat cushion, the polishing component 5 polishes the vents of the backrest or seat cushion and cleans the debris generated by polishing, and the detection component 6 detects the air flow of the vents after polishing.

[0068] Specifically, in this embodiment, the control component includes a console 101 and an electrical control cabinet 102. The console 101 is used to control the clamping component 4, the grinding component 5 and the detection component 6, and the electrical control cabinet 102 is used to control the circuits of the clamping component 4, the grinding component 5 and the detection component 6.

[0069] It should be noted that the present application does not limit the specific structure of the driving component 2, and a reasonable selection can be made according to actual conditions. Specifically, the driving component 2 can be a chain conveyor, a belt conveyor, a guide rail conveyor and a conveyor turntable, as long as it can realize the sequential conveying of the loading component 3 to the clamping component 4, the grinding component 5 and the detection component 6 for processing.

[0070] like Figure 13 As shown, in this embodiment, the driving component 2 includes a turntable 21, and the turntable 21 performs circular motion. The loading component 3 is arranged on the turntable 21 and is used to place the backrest or the seat cushion. The turntable 21 can drive the loading component 3 to rotate through the loading station, clamping station, grinding station and inspection station in sequence.

[0071] That is, the drive assembly 2 further includes a drive member that drives the turntable 21 to rotate. The drive member drives the turntable 21 to perform a circular motion, so that the backrest or seat cushion on the loading assembly 3 passes through the loading station, the clamping station, the polishing station, and the inspection station in sequence. It should be noted that this application does not limit the specific structure of the drive member, and a reasonable selection can be made according to actual conditions. Specifically, the drive member can use a servo motor or a reduction motor.

[0072] In other embodiments, the driving component 2 can use a linear driving method. During the process of the driving component 2 driving the loading component 3 to move linearly, it passes through the loading station, clamping station, grinding station and testing station in sequence. The present invention does not limit this and can be reasonably set according to actual needs, as long as the loading component 3 passes through the loading station, clamping station, grinding station and testing station in sequence.

[0073] like Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, the loading station is used to place the backrest or the seat cushion onto the loading assembly 3 or to remove the processed backrest or the seat cushion from the loading assembly 3 .

[0074] Specifically, the loading assembly 3 includes a plurality of loading ports 31 corresponding to the vents of the backrest or seat cushion, and an air guide port 32 connected to the ventilation cavity. The surface shape of the loading assembly 3 is determined according to the shape of the backrest or seat cushion. The purpose is to ensure that the upper surface of the backrest or seat cushion is flat after being placed on the loading assembly 3, facilitating subsequent processing. It should be noted that this application does not limit the specific structure of the loading assembly 3, and a reasonable selection can be made based on actual conditions, as long as it can accommodate the backrest or seat cushion and facilitate subsequent processing.

[0075] like Figures 6 to 8 As shown, in this embodiment, a lifting material component 10 is provided under the clamping station, and the lifting material component 10 is placed under the object to be clamped to prevent the object to be clamped from slipping when clamping the object to be clamped. The clamping component is provided at the clamping station, and the clamping component 4 includes a clamping mechanism and a collecting mechanism. The clamping component 4 is used to remove the object to be clamped on the backrest or the seat cushion, and the collecting mechanism is used to classify and collect the removed object to be clamped.

[0076] That is to say, first, the lifting material component 10 is used to push under the object to be clamped, and then the clamping mechanism is used to clamp the object to be clamped, and the clamped object to be clamped is collected by the collecting mechanism. It should be noted that this application does not limit the specific structure of the lifting material component 10, and a reasonable choice can be made according to actual conditions, as long as it can prevent the object to be clamped from slipping when clamping it.

[0077] Specifically, such as Figure 7 As shown, the ejecting assembly 10 includes a ejecting rack 11 arranged below the turntable 21, and a ejecting cylinder 12 is installed on the ejecting rack 11. The output end of the ejecting cylinder 12 is connected to a ejecting plate 13, and a ejecting head 14 is provided on the ejecting plate 13 corresponding to the ejecting port 31 on the loading assembly 3. The ejecting head 14 is driven by the ejecting cylinder 12 to extend into the ejecting port 31, so that the ejecting head 14 is pressed under the object to be clamped, thereby preventing the object to be clamped from slipping when clamping.

[0078] The lifting assembly 10 in this application is mainly used to prevent the object to be clamped in the backrest or seat cushion from sinking when the clamping mechanism moves downward to clamp. The lifting cylinder 12 drives the lifting head 14 to move to the same height each time, so that the height position of the object to be clamped after being supported by the lifting head 14 remains unchanged, ensuring that the object to be clamped is in the clamping position, making it easier for the clamping mechanism to clamp the object.

[0079] like Figures 6 to 8 As shown, in this embodiment, the clamping mechanism includes a material picking rack 41, a material picking plate 42 is slidably provided on the material picking rack 41, a clamping assembly 44 is provided on the material picking plate 42 corresponding to the object to be clamped on the backrest or the seat cushion, and the clamping assembly 44 includes a positioning sleeve 441, a material clamp 442 is slidably provided on the positioning sleeve 441, and a return spring 443 connected to the material picking plate 42 is provided above the positioning sleeve 441; the collecting mechanism includes a collecting cylinder 43 arranged on one side of the material picking rack 41, The output end of the collecting cylinder 43 is connected to a discharge hopper 45, and the discharge hopper 45 is divided into a first discharge hopper and a second discharge hopper according to the types of the collected objects to be clamped. The outlet end of the discharge hopper 45 is connected to a discharge pipe 46, and the discharge pipe 46 is divided into a first discharge pipe and a second discharge pipe corresponding to the outlets of the first discharge hopper and the second discharge hopper. A collecting tank 47 is provided at the outlet end of the discharge pipe 46, and the collecting tank 47 is divided into a first collection tank and a second collection tank corresponding to the outlets of the first discharge pipe and the second discharge pipe.

[0080] Specifically, the picking plate 42 moves downward so that the positioning sleeve 441 is sleeved on the object to be clamped for positioning. As the picking plate 42 descends, the return spring 443 contracts so that the material clamp 442 can clamp the object to be clamped. The material clamp 442 clamps the object to be clamped, and the picking plate 42 moves upward so that the material clamp 442 clamps the object to be clamped down. The lower hopper 45 is moved to the bottom of the clamping assembly 44 through the collecting cylinder 43, and the material clamp 442 puts the object to be clamped down into the lower hopper 45. The two types of objects to be clamped enter the first lower hopper and the second lower hopper respectively, and are transported through the lowering pipe 47 so that the two types of objects to be clamped enter the first collecting trough and the second collecting trough respectively for collection.

[0081] It should be noted that the present application does not limit the specific structure of the material clamp 442, and a reasonable choice can be made according to the actual situation. Specifically, the material clamp 442 can use a pneumatic clamp or an electric clamp, as long as it can achieve the purpose of clamping the object to be clamped. The collection mechanism in the present application can be provided with multiple discharge channels 46 as needed to meet the collection of more types of objects to be clamped.

[0082] like Figures 9 and 10 As shown, in this embodiment, the grinding component 5 is arranged at the grinding station, and the grinding component 5 includes a stripping mechanism, a grinding mechanism and a cleaning mechanism. The grinding mechanism is used to grind the vent, and the cleaning mechanism is used to clean the debris generated by grinding. The stripping mechanism is used to separate and strip the grinding mechanism from the backrest or the seat cushion after the grinding is completed.

[0083] That is to say, the vent is polished by the polishing mechanism, and at the same time, the ventilation cavity is ventilated by the cleaning mechanism to clean the debris generated by the polishing. After the polishing mechanism completes the polishing of the vent, the polishing mechanism is separated from the backrest or the seat cushion by the stripping mechanism.

[0084] It should be noted that this application does not limit the cleaning method and specific structure of the cleaning mechanism, and a reasonable choice can be made according to actual conditions. Specifically, the cleaning mechanism can also clean the debris in other ways, as long as it can clean the debris generated by grinding.

[0085] Specifically, such as Figures 9 and 10As shown, in this embodiment, the grinding mechanism includes a grinding frame 51, a grinding plate 52 is slidably provided on the grinding frame 51, a plurality of air grinding pens 53 are provided on the grinding plate 52, the air grinding pens 53 are arranged corresponding to the vents on the backrest or the seat cushion, one end of the air grinding pen 53 is rotatably connected to a guide head 533, a grinding tool 532 is provided between the guide head 533 and the air grinding pen 53, and the grinding tool 532 is used to grind the vents; the cleaning mechanism includes a ventilation box 54 provided on the air grinding pen 53 and a first ventilation component 7 provided below the turntable 21, a ventilation grille 531 is provided on the air grinding pen 53 and is connected to the ventilation box 54, and one side of the ventilation box 54 is connected to an air supply Unit, the first ventilation component 7 includes a first ventilation duct, and a driving member for driving the first ventilation duct to move up and down is provided below the first ventilation duct, one end of the first ventilation duct is connected to the air supply unit, and the other end is connected to the ventilation cavity of the backrest or the seat cushion; the stripping mechanism includes a pressing plate 57 arranged below the ventilation box 54 and a pressing spring 58 arranged above the ventilation box 54, the pressing spring 58 is connected to the polishing plate 52, and the pressing plate 57 and the pressing spring 58 cooperate to fix the backrest or the seat cushion, and the stripping mechanism also includes a stripping cylinder 56 arranged on the polishing plate 52, and the output end of the stripping cylinder 56 passes through the polishing plate 52 and is connected to a stripping plate 55.

[0086] That is to say, the grinding plate 52 moves downward on the grinding frame 51, so that the pressing plate 57 is pressed on the backrest or the seat cushion, and the backrest or the seat cushion is fixed by the compression of the pressing spring 58. The guide head 533 at the end of the air grinding pen 53 enters the ventilation cavity through the vent, and the air grinding pen 53 drives the grinding tool 532 to rotate to grind the vent. Since the guide head 533 is rotatably connected to the air grinding pen 53, the guide head 533 does not rotate when the air grinding pen 53 drives the grinding tool 532 to rotate. The air is introduced into the ventilation box 54 through the air supply unit, and the air enters the air grinding pen 53 through the ventilation grille 531. The air is blown out from the end of the air grinding pen 53, which can clean up the debris generated by grinding. After grinding is completed, the grinding plate 52 moves upward on the grinding frame 51, and the stripping cylinder 56 drives the stripping plate 55 to press against the upper surface of the backrest or the seat cushion, so that the backrest or the seat cushion is separated from the air grinding pen 53, and air is introduced into the ventilation cavity through the first ventilation component 7 to clean up the debris in the ventilation cavity.

[0087] It should be noted that in the present application, a partition can be installed under the pressing plate 57 to adjust the gap between the pressing plate 57 and the backrest or the seat cushion, thereby adjusting the effective grinding position of the grinding mechanism, so that the grinding mechanism can grind the backrest or the seat cushion of different models, and ensure the grinding effect of the grinding mechanism on the vents on the backrest or the seat cushion.

[0088] like Figure 11 As shown, in this embodiment, the detection component 6 is arranged at the detection station, and the detection component 6 includes an air supply mechanism and a detection mechanism. The air supply mechanism is used to ventilate the ventilation cavity in the backrest or the seat cushion, and the detection mechanism is used to detect the ventilation volume at the vent.

[0089] That is to say, the air supply mechanism introduces gas into the ventilation cavity, the gas in the ventilation cavity passes through the vents, and the detection mechanism detects the amount of air out of the vents to determine whether the patency of the ventilation cavity is qualified. It should be noted that the present invention does not limit the specific results of the ventilation mechanism and the detection mechanism, and a reasonable choice can be made according to actual conditions, as long as the quality of the vents on the backrest or seat cushion can be accurately detected.
