[0088] Optionally, in the assembly method for automatically inserting the air tube of the vehicle seat massage controller as described above, the air tube clamping mechanism performs the air tube insertion action in stages:

[0089] The endotracheal tube clamping mechanism first inserts the endotracheal tube into the air nozzle of the controller, releases the endotracheal tube, moves back a preset distance, and then clamps it again to perform a second insertion action, causing the endotracheal tube to be inserted to the root of the air nozzle.

[0090] Optionally, in the assembly method for automatically connecting the air hose of the vehicle seat massage controller as described above, before the fixture drives the controller to move horizontally to the connection position of the next air hose and waits to connect the next air hose, the method further includes:

[0091] The fixture drives the controller to move backward. The air pipe cylinder in the automatic air pipe feeding station of the controller drives the plate to rise. During the process of the fixture driving the controller to move forward to the insertion position of the next air pipe, the plate moves the air pipe adjacent to the plate backward to prevent interference when inserting the next air pipe.

[0092] Optionally, in the assembly method for automatic air tube insertion of the car seat massage controller as described above, after all the air nozzles on one side of the controller are filled with air tubes, the locking mechanism of the controller loading station releases the fixture, and the loading rotation mechanism of the controller loading station drives the fixture and the controller on it to rotate, so that the second side of the controller faces the air tube insertion gripper mechanism of the air tube insertion station, and the locking mechanism locks the fixture to continue the air tube insertion work on the second side.

[0117] Reference Figure 1 This invention provides an assembly system for automatic insertion of air tubes into a car seat massage controller. The assembly system includes a controller loading station 1, an air tube insertion station 2, an air tube pulling station 3, an air tube loading station 4, and an air tube adjustment station 5.

[0118] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The controller loading station 1 has a fixture 11 for fixing the controller 9. The fixture 11 can move horizontally, and can move the controller 9 horizontally to the loading position or the insertion position. Both the loading position and the insertion position are located on the movement stroke of the fixture 11. The loading position is located on the side away from the air tube insertion station 2, and the insertion position is located on the side closer to the air tube insertion station 2. The operator can place the controller 9 to be inserted into the fixture 11 at the loading position. After the fixture 11 clamps and fixes the controller 9, it moves horizontally with the controller 9 to the insertion position.

[0119] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 4 The air tube insertion station 2 is located on one side of the loading station 1 of the controller 9. The air tube insertion station 2 has an air tube clamping mechanism 21 that can move horizontally. The movement direction of the air tube clamping mechanism 21 is perpendicular to the movement direction of the fixture 11. For example... Figure 1 As shown, the movement direction of the fixture 11 is the X-axis direction, and the movement direction of the intubation clamp mechanism 21 is the Y-axis direction. The intubation clamp mechanism 21 is used to receive and clamp the trachea from the trachea pulling station 3. The intubation clamp mechanism 21 clamps the trachea and drives the trachea to move horizontally to the insertion position to perform the intubation action.

[0120] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 6The air tube pulling station 3 has an air tube pulling gripper mechanism 31 capable of lifting, lowering, and rotating, located above the air tube insertion gripper mechanism 21. The air tube insertion gripper mechanism 21 clamps the air tube from the air tube adjustment station 5 in the clamping position and pulls it downwards, causing the clamped air tube to be pulled to a preset length. The air tube insertion gripper mechanism 21 also rotates the cut air tube 180° in the rotation position, changing the air tube's axis from vertical (Z-axis direction) to horizontal (Y-axis direction), facilitating its handover to the air tube insertion gripper mechanism 21 for clamping. The preset length to which the air tube is pulled is determined according to the requirements for insertion; the preset lengths for each air tube may be the same or different.

[0121] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 7 The air pipe feeding station 4 is equipped with an automatic wire feeding rack 41 for automatically discharging air pipes. The automatic wire feeding rack 41 can be any existing wire feeding rack with several wire feeding reels. The automatic wire feeding rack 41 can store air pipes of different colors and diameters. After the motor of the automatic wire feeding rack 41 rotates, each air pipe reaches the air pipe adjustment station 5.

[0122] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 8 The trachea adjustment station 5 has a trachea guiding component 51 and a trachea cutting component 52. The trachea guiding component 51 receives several tracheas from the automatic wire feeder 41 and guides one of the tracheas to the trachea clamping mechanism 31. The trachea guiding component 51 can move horizontally, and the horizontal movement of the trachea guiding component 51 drives the horizontal movement of several tracheas, so that the tracheas can be guided to the trachea clamping mechanism 31 for clamping according to a preset sequence. The trachea cutting component 52 has a horizontally extendable pneumatic scissors 521. The pneumatic scissors 521 is located between the trachea guiding component 51 and the trachea clamping mechanism 31. The pneumatic scissors 521 are used to cut the trachea clamped by the trachea clamping mechanism 31.

[0123] The present invention can automatically connect TPU tubing of different colors, lengths and diameters to the controller 9 according to a preset working rhythm by organically coordinating the actions of the controller feeding station 1, the air tube insertion station 2, the air tube pulling station 3, the air tube feeding station 4 and the air tube adjustment station 5.

[0124] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The controller loading station 1 also has a movable plate 12, a loading rotation mechanism 13 and a locking mechanism 14.

[0125] The movable plate 12 is detachably connected to the fixture 11, and a bushing 121 is provided inside the bottom of the movable plate 12. The movable plate 12 and the fixture 11 can be connected by a detachable method in the prior art, such as bolts or screws. Designing the fixture 11 to be detachably connected to the movable plate 12 makes it easy to remove the fixture 11 from the movable plate 12 and replace it with a fixture 11 that is compatible with the controller 9 when using different specifications of controller 9 for endotracheal tube insertion. This makes tooling replacement simple and convenient, improving the utilization rate of the system.

[0126] The feeding rotation mechanism 13 is connected to the movable plate 12. The feeding rotation mechanism 13 drives the movable plate 12 to rotate vertically, so that the fixture 11 connected to the movable plate 12 is also driven by the feeding rotation mechanism 13 to rotate vertically. Finally, multiple sides of the controller 9 on the fixture 11 can face the air tube clamping mechanism 21 to realize the air tube insertion work.

[0127] The locking mechanism 14 has a pin cylinder 141 and a positioning pin 142. The piston rod of the pin cylinder 141 is vertical in axis and the end is connected to the positioning pin 142. The positioning pin 142 is located below the bushing 121. When the positioning pin 142 is driven to rise and fall by the pin cylinder 141, it can be inserted into or moved away from the bushing 121.

[0128] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The fixture 11 has a fixture cavity for accommodating and fixing the controller 9. The two sides of the fixture cavity along the movement direction of the endotracheal tube clamp mechanism 21 are open structures to expose the front and back sides of the controller 9 fixed inside the fixture cavity, facilitating endotracheal tube insertion.

[0129] In some embodiments, the feeding rotary mechanism 13 of the present invention may adopt a conventional rotary mechanism, and preferably adopts the following design:

[0130] Reference Figure 3 The controller feeding station 1 also has a controller feeding bracket 15, on which a pin cylinder 141 is installed, and a movable plate 12 is suspended above the controller feeding bracket 15.

[0131] The loading rotation mechanism 13 includes a slide cylinder 131, a rack 132, a gear 133, a rotating shaft 134, and at least one bearing 135. The slide cylinder 131 is mounted on the controller loading bracket 15, and the extension rod of the slide cylinder 131 is axially horizontal. The rack 132 is connected to the extension rod of the slide cylinder 131, and the slide cylinder 131 drives the rack 132 to move horizontally. The gear 133 is meshed with the rack 132, and the rack 132 drives the gear 133 to rotate vertically. The rotating shaft 134 is axially vertical, with its bottom end connected to the gear 133 and its top end connected to the bottom surface of the movable plate 12. The gear 133 drives the movable plate 12 to rotate vertically via the rotating shaft 134, which in turn drives the fixture 11 connected to the movable plate 12 to rotate vertically, and finally drives the controller 9 on the fixture 11 to rotate vertically to the target side. One or more bearings 135 have their inner rings fitted around the rotating shaft 134, and their outer rings are connected to the controller feeding bracket 15 for supporting and fixing the rotating shaft 134. One or more bearings 135 are arranged side-by-side vertically, preferably two bearings 135 are arranged vertically.

[0132] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 3 The locking mechanism 14 also has a proximity switch 143, the sensing end of which faces between the locating pin 142 and the bushing 121. The proximity switch 143 is used to sense whether the locating pin 142 of the locking mechanism 14 is inserted into or moved away from the bushing 121 to determine whether the movable plate 12 / fixture 11 is locked or released. When released, the fixture 11 and its controller 9 can be rotated vertically to the target side by the feeding rotation mechanism 13.

[0133] In some embodiments, there are two locking mechanisms 14, which are arranged asymmetrically diagonally opposite each other around the center of the movable plate 12. This is for the purpose of preventing the controller 9 from mistakenly rotating in both directions.

[0134] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 2 The controller loading station 1 also has a loading station electric cylinder motion module 16. The loading station electric cylinder motion module 16 has a horizontal moving end that can move in the horizontal direction. The movement direction of the loading station electric cylinder motion module 16 is perpendicular to the movement direction of the air tube clamping mechanism 21. The horizontal moving end of the loading station electric cylinder motion module 16 is connected to the controller loading bracket 15. The loading station electric cylinder motion module 16 drives the controller loading bracket 15 to move horizontally, which in turn drives the fixture 11 to move horizontally.

[0135] In this embodiment, the jig 11 can move horizontally through the loading station electric cylinder motion module 16. The loading position and the insertion position are both located in the horizontal movement stroke of the loading station electric cylinder motion module 16, preferably on both sides of the horizontal movement stroke of the loading station electric cylinder motion module 16.

[0136] The electric cylinder motion module 16 at the loading station can adopt existing technology, which will not be elaborated here.

[0137] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 2 The controller loading station 1 also has an automatic air pipe mechanism 17. The automatic air pipe mechanism 17 has an air pipe cylinder 171 and a deflector plate 172. The piston rod of the air pipe cylinder 171 is vertical in axis and its end is connected to the deflector plate 172. The air pipe cylinder 171 is located on the side of the fixture 11.

[0138] After the fixture 11 drives the controller 9 to move backward toward the side closer to the loading position, the air pipe cylinder 171 drives the deflector plate 172 to rise. During the process of the fixture 11 driving the controller 9 to move forward toward the insertion position to the insertion position of the next air pipe, the deflector plate 172 deflects the air pipe adjacent to the deflector plate 172 to move backward to prevent interference when inserting the next air pipe.

[0139] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 2 The top of the lever 172 has a notch on the side away from the air tube insertion station 2 to facilitate contact with the air tube.

[0140] In some embodiments, the air-pulling cylinder 171 is a double-rod cylinder.

[0141] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 The intubation station 2 also includes an intubation servo motion module 22 and an intubation connecting plate 23. The intubation servo motion module 22 has a horizontally movable end that can move in the horizontal direction. The intubation connecting plate 23 is connected to the horizontally movable end of the intubation servo motion module 22, and the intubation servo motion module 22 drives the intubation connecting plate 23 to move in the horizontal direction.

[0142] Reference Figure 5 The air tube clamping mechanism 21 has an air tube clamping cylinder 211 and a pair of air tube clamping blocks 212. The air tube clamping cylinder 211 is mounted on the air tube connecting plate 23, and the pair of air tube clamping blocks 212 are respectively mounted on a pair of clamping claws of the air tube clamping cylinder 211. The pair of air tube clamping blocks 212 are arranged side by side vertically.

[0143] In this embodiment, the endotracheal tube servo motion module 22 enables the endotracheal tube gripper mechanism 21 to move horizontally. In this embodiment, the endotracheal tube gripper cylinder 211 drives a pair of endotracheal tube gripper blocks 212 to move relative to each other, thereby clamping or releasing the endotracheal tube.

[0144] The servo motion module 22 for the intubation tube can be a servo motion module of existing technology, which will not be described in detail here.

[0145] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 5 The intubation tube gripper mechanism 21 also includes an intubation tube slide rail 213 and two intubation tube sliders 214. The intubation tube slide rail 213 is mounted on the intubation tube connecting plate 23, and its length direction is vertical. The two intubation tube sliders 214 are respectively mounted on two intubation tube gripper blocks 212, and each intubation tube slider 214 is slidably connected to the intubation tube slide rail 213.

[0146] When the intubation tube clamping cylinder 211 drives a pair of intubation tube clamping blocks 212 to move relative to each other, the intubation tube sliders 214 on each intubation tube clamping block 212 slide on the intubation tube slide rail 213 to further ensure the stability and smoothness of the relative movement of the pair of intubation tube clamping blocks 212.

[0147] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 5 The intubation tube clamping mechanism 21 also includes a first intubation tube limiting block 215, a second intubation tube limiting block 216, and an intubation tube limiting bolt 217. The first intubation tube limiting block 215 has a vertically communicating limiting block connecting hole and is mounted on one of the intubation tube clamping blocks 212. The second intubation tube limiting block 216 has a vertically communicating limiting block threaded hole and is mounted on the other intubation tube clamping block 212, with the limiting block threaded hole and the limiting block connecting hole facing each other. The threaded portion of the intubation tube limiting bolt 217 passes through the limiting block connecting hole and is threadedly connected to the limiting block threaded hole.

[0148] For example, Figure 5 As shown, the first endotracheal tube limiting block 215 is disposed on the upper endotracheal tube clamping block 212, and the second endotracheal tube limiting block 216 is disposed on the lower endotracheal tube clamping block 212. The threaded part of the endotracheal tube limiting bolt 217 passes through the limiting block connecting hole in the first endotracheal tube limiting block 215 from top to bottom and is threadedly connected to the limiting block threaded hole in the second endotracheal tube limiting block 216.

[0149] In this embodiment, since the first intubation tube limiting block 215 is provided with a limiting block connecting hole, when a pair of intubation tube clamping blocks 212 move relative to each other, the intubation tube limiting bolt 217 can move freely vertically relative to the limiting block connecting hole within the limiting block connecting hole. Of course, the diameter of the limiting block connecting hole is smaller than the bolt head diameter of the intubation tube limiting bolt 217. The first intubation tube limiting block 215 is limited by the bolt head to restrict the stroke of the intubation tube clamping cylinder 211.

[0150] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 6 The air pipe pulling station 3 also has an air pipe pulling servo motion module 32 and a rotary cylinder 33. The air pipe pulling servo motion module 32 has a lifting end that can move vertically. The rotary cylinder 33 is connected to the lifting end of the air pipe pulling servo motion module 32 through the first connecting plate of the air pipe. The air pipe pulling servo motion module 32 drives the rotary cylinder 33 to move vertically. The rotation axis of the rotary cylinder 33 is in the horizontal direction.

[0151] The air pipe gripper mechanism 31 has an air pipe gripper cylinder 311 and a pair of air pipe gripper blocks 312. The air pipe gripper cylinder 311 is connected to the rotation shaft of the rotary cylinder 33 through the second connecting plate of the air pipe. The rotary cylinder 33 drives the air pipe gripper cylinder 311 to rotate in the horizontal direction. The pair of air pipe gripper blocks 312 are respectively arranged on the pair of grippers of the air pipe gripper cylinder 311.

[0152] In this embodiment, the air pipe pulling gripper mechanism 31 can perform lifting and lowering motion through the air pipe pulling servo motion module 32, and the air pipe pulling gripper mechanism 31 can rotate around the horizontal direction through the rotary cylinder 33.

[0153] The air tube servo motion module 32 can adopt existing servo motion modules, which will not be described in detail here.

[0154] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 6 One air-pulling pipe gripper block 312 is provided with a gripper block connecting hole, and the other air-pulling pipe gripper block 312 is provided with a gripper block threaded hole. The gripper block threaded hole and the gripper block connecting hole are arranged opposite to each other and their axial directions are both the opening and closing directions of the air-pulling pipe gripper cylinder 311.

[0155] The air tube clamping mechanism 31 also has an air tube limiting bolt 313, the threaded part of which passes through the connecting hole of the clamping block and is threadedly connected to the threaded hole of the clamping block.

[0156] and Figure 5 The limiting mechanism 21 for the endotracheal tube is similar. Through the above design, the stroke of the endotracheal tube clamp cylinder 311 is limited.

[0157] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 7The air pipe feeding station 4 also has an air pipe feeding outer frame 42 and several detection sensors. An automatic wire feeding rack 41 is installed on the air pipe feeding outer frame 42. The detection sensors are installed on the air pipe feeding outer frame 42.

[0158] In this embodiment, a detection sensor is used to detect whether the automatic wire feeding frame 41 has released an air tube. If an air tube is not released from a wire feeding reel of the automatic wire feeding frame 41 during the air tube insertion process, an alarm can be triggered to remind the staff to replenish the corresponding air tube at the air tube feeding station 4 in a timely manner, or to perform alarm checks, etc.

[0159] In some embodiments, refer to Figures 8 to 10 The tracheal guide assembly 51 includes a tracheal guide connecting plate 511, several clamps 512, and several guide tubes 513. Several clamps 512 arranged in a row are provided on the upper part of the tracheal guide connecting plate 511, and the arrangement direction of the clamps 512 is consistent with the movement direction of the tracheal guide assembly 51. Two guide tubes 513 form a group; one guide tube 513 in a group is engaged with a clamp 512, and the other guide tube 513 in the group is fixed to the bottom of the tracheal guide connecting plate 511. The two guide tubes 513 in a group are arranged vertically opposite each other and have tracheal guide channels.

[0160] In this embodiment, after several air tubes are released from the automatic wire feeder 41, their ends pass through the upper guide tube 513 in sequence, are inserted into the lower guide tube 513 through the air tube guide channel, and are exposed in the air tube guide assembly 51.

[0161] The number of clamps 512 and the number of guide tubes 513 can be determined according to the specifications of the air tubes that the controller 9 actually needs to connect to. For example, if one side of the controller 9 needs to connect to 5 different colored and sized air tubes, then the air tube guide assembly 51 has a row of 5 clamps 512 and 5 corresponding guide tubes 513.

[0162] In some embodiments, the number of wire reels in the automatic wire feeder 41 is greater than or equal to the number of sets of guide tubes 513. This allows the automatic wire feeder 41 to have reserved wire reels for connecting air tubes to different controllers 9.

[0163] In some embodiments, refer to Figures 8 to 10 The trachea cutting assembly 52 also has a trachea cutting cylinder 522. The telescopic rod of the trachea cutting cylinder 522 is horizontal in axis and its end is connected to the pneumatic scissors 521. The pneumatic scissors 521 are driven by the trachea cutting cylinder 522 to move horizontally.

[0164] This example uses a trachea cutting cylinder 522 to achieve the horizontal extension and retraction of pneumatic scissors 521. When it is necessary to cut the trachea, the trachea cutting cylinder 522 extends the pneumatic scissors 521, so that the trachea is positioned between the two blades of the pneumatic scissors 521, driving the pneumatic scissors 521 to cut the trachea.

[0165] In some embodiments, the trachea cutting cylinder 522 is a double-rod cylinder.

[0166] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 8 The tracheal adjustment station 5 also has an adjustment station electric cylinder motion module 53. The adjustment station electric cylinder motion module 53 has a horizontal moving end that can move in the horizontal direction. The horizontal moving end of the adjustment station electric cylinder motion module 53 is connected to the tracheal guide connecting plate 511. The adjustment station electric cylinder motion module 53 drives the tracheal guide connecting plate 511 to move in the horizontal direction.

[0167] This example achieves the goal of allowing the air pipe guide assembly 51 to move horizontally by adjusting the workstation electric cylinder motion module 53 via the air pipe guide connecting plate 511.

[0168] In some embodiments, refer to Figures 8 to 10 The trachea adjustment station 5 also has a trachea clamping assembly 54. The trachea clamping assembly 54 has several clamping claw cylinders 541. A pair of claws of a clamping claw cylinder 541 are arranged on both sides of the trachea guide channel between two guide tubes 513 in a set.

[0169] In this embodiment, the design of the trachea clamping component 54 is such that before the trachea is cut, the clamping claw cylinder 541 clamps and fixes the trachea to be cut to prevent the trachea from detaching. When the trachea clamped by the trachea clamping component 54 needs to be reconnected next time, the trachea is released so that the trachea clamping claw mechanism 31 can clamp the trachea and pull it down a preset distance.

[0170] In some embodiments, clamping jaw blocks may be respectively provided on a pair of jaws of the clamping jaw cylinder 541. The two clamping jaw blocks preferably adopt an L-shaped structure, with the vertical section of the clamping jaw block connected to the jaws of the clamping jaw cylinder 541, and the horizontal sections of the two clamping jaw blocks arranged opposite each other on both sides of the airway guide channel. This design can avoid the clamping jaw cylinder 541 interfering with the downward movement of the airway when it is not clamping the airway, thus providing a wider airway guide channel for the airway.

[0171] In some embodiments, refer to Figures 8 to 10 The trachea adjustment station 5 also has a trachea detection component 55, which has several fork-shaped sensors 551. One fork-shaped sensor 551 is located on the side of the trachea guide channel between two guide tubes 513 in a group, and the sensing surface faces the trachea guide channel.

[0172] In this embodiment, a fork-shaped sensor 551 is used to detect whether an air tube passes through the air tube guide channel. If no air tube passes through a certain air tube guide channel during the air tube insertion process, an alarm can be triggered to remind the staff to replenish the corresponding air tube at the air tube loading station 4 in a timely manner, or to perform alarm checks, etc.

[0173] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 11 The assembly system also includes an air tube guiding station 6, which has a guide frame 61 and several sets of guiding mechanisms 62. The sets of guiding mechanisms 62 are arranged in a row on the guide frame 61 along the direction of movement of the air tube guiding assembly 51. (Refer to...) Figure 12 The guide mechanism 62 has a pulley 621 and a guide wheel 622. The pulley 621 and the guide wheel 622 are arranged side by side at a preset distance in a vertical direction, so that an air tube connection channel is formed between the pulley 621 and the guide wheel 622.

[0174] In this embodiment, pulley 621 is a pulley with a guide groove around its circumference, and guide wheel 622 is a guide wheel with a smooth surface around its circumference. Therefore, in use, the air tube is embedded in the guide groove of pulley 621 and constrained by guide wheel 622.

[0175] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 11 The guide frame 61 has two rows of guide mechanisms 62, one in front and one in back.

[0176] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 13 The assembly system also includes a control unit 7, which includes a microprocessor, two gratings 71, a two-hand start button 72, and a display and input device 73.

[0177] The microprocessor connects to each controlled device and sensor in the assembly system of this invention.

[0178] For example, the microprocessor connects to the control terminal of the slide cylinder 131, the control terminal of the pin cylinder 141, the signal input terminal of the proximity switch 143, the control terminal of the loading station electric cylinder motion module 16, the control terminal of the air pipe cylinder 171, the control terminal of the air pipe clamping cylinder 211, the control terminal of the air pipe servo motion module 22, the control terminal of the air pipe clamping cylinder 311, the control terminal of the air pipe servo motion module 32, the control terminal of the rotary cylinder 33, the control terminal of the automatic wire feeding frame 41, the control terminal of the pneumatic scissors 521, the control terminal of the air pipe cutting cylinder 522, the control terminal of the adjusting station electric cylinder motion module 53, the control terminal of the clamping claw cylinder 541, and the signal input terminal of the fork sensor 551.

[0179] The microprocessor can be a microcontroller based on a single-chip microcomputer architecture or a PLC architecture. The microprocessor can be integrated into the system framework as a 74-bit all-in-one computer.

[0180] Two gratings 71 are positioned opposite each other on the side of the controller's loading station 1 away from the air inlet station 2, i.e., the gratings 71 are located at the loading position and are connected to the microprocessor. The gratings 71 can serve as sensors for stopping or pausing the system. When a person passes through the gratings 71 to load or unload materials, the system should stop operating to avoid accidental injury to personnel.

[0181] The two-hand start button 72 is connected to the microprocessor. The two-hand start button 72 is preferably located at the loading position so that after the manual loading is completed, pressing the two-hand start button 72 will start the system.

[0182] The display and input device 73 is connected to the microprocessor. The display and input device 73 can be a separate display and keyboard / button assembly, or it can be a touch screen.

[0183] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 13 The assembly system also includes a system frame 8, on which various workstations and control units 7 are installed.

[0184] Of course, if a workstation has an independent frame, it does not need to be set on the system frame 8. For example, if the air pipe loading workstation 4 has an air pipe loading outer frame 42, then the air pipe loading outer frame 42 can be set on the side of the system frame 8.

[0185] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 13 The assembly system also includes a good product box 81 and a defective product box 82, which are respectively disposed on the system frame 8. The good product box 81 and the defective product box 82 are preferably disposed on the side of the loading position.

[0186] This invention provides an assembly method for automatically connecting the air hose of a car seat massage controller, the assembly method comprising the following steps:

[0187] S1, Controller preparation: The operator places the controller 9 into the fixture 11 at the controller loading station 1, presses the system start button, and the fixture 11 drives the controller 9 to move horizontally to the insertion position.

[0188] S2, Air pipe preparation: The automatic wire feeding rack 41 of the air pipe feeding station 4 releases several air pipes to the air pipe adjustment station 5.

[0189] An air pipe guiding station 6 can be set between the air pipe feeding station 4 and the air pipe adjusting station 5 to guide the air pipes. Therefore, in some embodiments, in this step S2, during the process of the automatic wire feeding frame 41 of the air pipe feeding station 4 releasing several air pipes to the air pipe adjusting station 5, the guiding mechanism 62 of the air pipe guiding station 6 guides several air pipes to the air pipe adjusting station 5.

[0190] S3, Trachea Cutting: The trachea guide component 51 of the trachea adjustment station 5 moves the trachea horizontally to the trachea pulling station 3 according to the preset trachea sequence. The trachea pulling gripper mechanism 31 of the trachea pulling station 3 clamps a trachea at the clamping position and moves it downward to the preset distance. The pneumatic scissors 521 of the trachea adjustment station 5 extends and cuts the trachea.

[0191] The preset distance in this step is determined in advance according to the program's running sequence. The length of the air tube that needs to be inserted on one side of the controller may be the same or different. This preset distance corresponds to the length of the air tube that needs to be inserted later.

[0192] In some embodiments, after the pneumatic scissors 521 of the trachea adjustment station 5 extends and before cutting the trachea, the method further includes: clamping the trachea to be cut by the trachea clamping assembly 54 to prevent the trachea from detaching; and releasing the trachea when it is necessary to reconnect the trachea clamped by the trachea clamping assembly 54 the next time, so that the trachea puller mechanism 31 can clamp and pull down the trachea again.

[0193] S4, Tracheal transfer: The tracheal clamping mechanism 31 continues to clamp the tracheal tube and moves downward to the rotating position, causing the tracheal tube to rotate around the horizontal direction, transferring the tracheal tube to the intubation clamping mechanism 21 at the intubation station 2. After the intubation clamping mechanism 21 clamps the tracheal tube, the tracheal clamping mechanism 31 rotates and moves upward to the tracheal clamping position.

[0194] S5, endotracheal tube insertion: The endotracheal tube clamping mechanism 21 clamps the endotracheal tube and moves it horizontally to the insertion position to perform the endotracheal tube insertion action until the endotracheal tube is inserted into the root of the air nozzle of the controller 9. The endotracheal tube clamping mechanism 21 then releases the endotracheal tube and returns to its horizontal position.

[0195] In some embodiments, the intubation clamping mechanism 21 clamps the trachea and performs the intubation action in stages: the intubation clamping mechanism 21 first inserts the trachea into the air nozzle of the controller 9, releases the trachea, moves back a preset distance, and then clamps it again to perform a second intubation action, so that the trachea is inserted to the root of the air nozzle.

[0196] Of course, the insertion process can be performed three or more times as needed.

[0197] S6, Next insertion preparation: Fixture 11 drives controller 9 to move horizontally to the insertion position of the next trachea and wait to insert the next trachea.

[0198] In some embodiments, before the fixture 11 drives the controller 9 to move horizontally to the insertion position of the next air tube and waits to insert the next air tube, the method further includes: the fixture 11 drives the controller 9 to move backward, the air tube cylinder 171 in the automatic air tube feeding station 17 drives the deflector 172 to rise, and during the process of the fixture 11 driving the controller 9 to move forward to the insertion position of the next air tube, the deflector 172 deflects the air tube adjacent to the deflector 172 to move backward to prevent interference when inserting the next air tube.

[0199] S7, Connection completed: After all the air tubes on the controller 9 are connected, the fixture 11 moves the controller 9 to the loading position, and the finished product is manually removed from the fixture 11.

[0200] In some embodiments, after all the air nozzles on one side of the controller 9 are filled with air tubes, the locking mechanism 14 of the controller loading station 1 releases the fixture 11, and the loading rotation mechanism 13 of the controller loading station 1 drives the fixture 11 and the controller 9 on it to rotate, so that the second side of the controller 9 faces the air tube clamping mechanism 21, and the locking mechanism 14 locks the fixture 11 to continue the air tube insertion work on the second side.

[0201] When all sides of the controller 9 that require air tubes have completed the air tube insertion work, it is considered that all air tubes on the controller 9 have been inserted. The fixture 11 then moves the controller 9 to the loading position, and the finished product is manually removed from the fixture 11.

[0202] In some embodiments, the assembly method is implemented by the assembly system of the above embodiments of the present invention.

[0203] If the next controller 9 needs to be plugged in, repeat steps S1 to S7.

[0204] The present invention has been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. Those skilled in the art can make various modifications to the present invention based on the above description. Therefore, certain details in the embodiments should not be construed as limiting the present invention, and the scope of protection of the present invention shall be defined by the appended claims.
