Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of manufacturing technology, and in particular to an assembly device used for assembling integrated components, such as an assembly device for automotive integrated components. Background Art
[0002] Existing assembly equipment, such as assembly production lines, are generally designed and manufactured for a specific product, and the production rhythm, that is, the production capacity, of an assembly production line is generally relatively fixed, that is, the assembly production line is generally dedicated to assembling one product, and the production rhythm is relatively fixed. The advantages are relatively high production efficiency and strong specialization, but it is relatively difficult to adjust the production rhythm and change products. If you want to adjust or modify, the workload is relatively large and the time required is relatively long. For example, the assembly production line used for assembling automotive components is generally designed based on specific products and specific production capacity. When the product design changes or the product is changed, it is necessary to replace the new assembly production line or make a major transformation. When the production capacity is increased, a new assembly production line needs to be added, which takes a relatively long time. The scrapping of the production line during product replacement leads to waste of resources and relatively increased costs. In addition, automotive components generally require a test adjustment process. In the early development and verification stage, some designs will be changed and some parts will be adjusted. The use of a fixed assembly production line requires the manufacture of a new assembly production line, which takes a relatively long process. During mass production, the amount of automotive components gradually increases. Therefore, how to design a relatively flexible assembly production line with improved versatility to reduce waste during product upgrades, meet the need for gradually increasing production capacity during mass production, and reduce waste caused by the elimination of assembly production lines is a technical issue that needs to be improved. Summary of the invention
[0003] The purpose of the present application is to provide an assembly device with a universal assembly table to solve one of the above-mentioned technical problems. The assembly device can assemble integrated components, such as vehicle integrated components.
[0004] To this end, one embodiment of the present application adopts the following technical solution:
[0005] An assembly device, comprising at least five universal assembly stations, each of which is provided with a conveying mechanism;
[0006] Among the universal assembly tables, at least three of them respectively have at least three groups of action mechanism positions and at least two groups of operating mechanism positions; at least one group of the action mechanism positions is staggered with the other action mechanism positions, and the other two groups of the action mechanism positions are at least partially staggered; the operating mechanism positions are at least partially staggered with the other operating mechanism positions; the action mechanism positions are staggered with the operating mechanism positions.
[0007] The action mechanism position can be used to cooperate with the action mechanism to facilitate the fixation or limit installation of the action mechanism; the operating mechanism position can be used to cooperate with the operating mechanism to facilitate the fixation or limit installation of the operating mechanism.
[0008] The universal assembly tables all include a frame; at least three of the frames respectively have at least three groups of the action mechanism positions and at least two groups of the operating mechanism positions; the assembly equipment is respectively provided with at least one action mechanism and at least one operating mechanism on the at least three universal assembly tables, the action mechanism is fixedly arranged on the frame of the universal assembly table where it is located, and the operating mechanism is fixedly arranged on the frame of the universal assembly table where it is located.
[0009] In this article, the action mechanism refers to a mechanism that can move a workpiece or parts, auxiliary materials, etc. a certain distance and perform some operations, such as completing the grabbing and sending it to the corresponding position, or scanning and confirming and grabbing and sending it to the corresponding position, etc. The action mechanism position refers to the part used to cooperate with the action mechanism, such as the part fixedly installed with the action mechanism by screws, etc., generally including mounting holes, and the mounting holes of each action mechanism position are used to cooperate with the corresponding action mechanism to achieve fixation or limit. The operation mechanism refers to a mechanism that can perform some operations on the workpiece or parts, auxiliary materials, etc. at its corresponding position, such as damage inspection, oiling, oiling inspection, transportation, etc. The operation mechanism position refers to the part used to cooperate with the operation mechanism, such as the part fixedly installed or combined with the operation mechanism by screws or clamps, etc., generally including mounting holes or slots, and each operation mechanism position cooperates with the corresponding operation mechanism.
[0010] In this way, the assembly equipment has more than five universal assembly tables, and the universal assembly tables are equipped with conveying mechanisms. In this way, the combination of assembly equipment only needs to be connected to each other, and the combination or adjustment is relatively simple and quick, and at least some of the universal assembly tables have more than three groups of action mechanism positions and two groups of operating mechanism positions to choose from. When the assembly equipment replaces the workpiece to be assembled, the action mechanism or operating mechanism can be set at a relatively suitable position, which is convenient for replacement and makes the adaptability of the assembly equipment relatively stronger. The assembly equipment can be used to assemble more than one workpiece, which can realize rapid adjustment of the production line, which is conducive to reducing waste and reducing costs.

The conveying mechanism 110 can be fixed or limitedly set on the universal assembly table, and the conveying mechanism includes a power mechanism 41 and a chain belt 1100. The power mechanism 41 can drive the chain belt to move forward or backward to realize the transmission of the workpiece rack on the conveying mechanism. In addition, the conveying mechanism can also be set in the assembly equipment and cooperate with the universal assembly table.

The conveying mechanism 110 can specifically include a chain belt, such as a double-speed chain. The second universal assembly station 102 also has a relatively independent control module to realize the automatic operation of the universal assembly station.
[0038] The third universal assembly table 103 includes a stand 11, and the assembly equipment is provided with a first action mechanism 31, a second action mechanism 32, a third action mechanism 33, and three sets of feeding mechanisms on the third universal assembly table 103, namely, a first feeding mechanism 621, a second feeding mechanism 622, a third feeding mechanism 623, and a plurality of operating mechanisms. The first feeding mechanism 621 cooperates with the first action mechanism 31, and the first action mechanism 31 can send the parts on the first feeding mechanism 621 to the corresponding position of the workpiece; the third action mechanism 33 cooperates with the second feeding mechanism 622 and the third feeding mechanism 623, and the third action mechanism 33 can send the parts on the second feeding mechanism 622 to the second position corresponding to the workpiece, and send the parts on the third feeding mechanism 623 to the third position corresponding to the workpiece. The second side of the third universal assembly table 103 cooperates with the connecting device 43, and the first side of the third universal assembly table 103 cooperates with the connecting device 43. The third universal assembly station 103 also includes a conveying mechanism 110, and the conveying mechanism includes a power mechanism 41. The second universal assembly station 102 also has a relatively independent control module to realize the automatic operation of the universal assembly station.
[0039] The fourth universal assembly station 104 includes a stand 11, and the assembly equipment is provided with a first action mechanism 31, a second action mechanism 32, a feeding mechanism 611, a feeding mechanism 612, a vibration feeding mechanism 51, a vibration feeding mechanism 52, an assembly mechanism 71, and a plurality of operating mechanisms on the fourth universal assembly station 104.

[0040] The fifth universal assembly station 105 includes a stand 11, and the assembly equipment is provided with a first action mechanism 31, a second action mechanism 32, a feeding mechanism 60, a vibration feeding mechanism 51, an assembly mechanism 71, and a plurality of operating mechanisms on the fifth universal assembly station 105. The second side 112 of the fifth universal assembly station 105 cooperates with the fourth universal assembly station 104, and the first side 111 of the fifth universal assembly station 105 can cooperate with other machines or connecting devices.

The fifth universal assembly station 105 also has a relatively independent control module to realize the automatic operation of the universal assembly station. In this universal assembly station, the operating mechanism includes a detection device. When the detection device detects a non-conforming product, the parts or auxiliary materials located at the waiting position can participate in the operation, which can reduce the waiting time required due to the detection of non-conforming products.
[0041] The setting of the waiting position 50 is conducive to the rhythm balance of the assembly equipment. For example, when a non-conforming product is produced at a local workstation, one to three waiting positions 50 can be set. Even if a non-conforming product appears, there are still parts or auxiliary materials in the waiting position that can be used for assembly; if a part needs to be inspected and assembled before being installed on the workpiece, but a non-conforming product appears during the inspection and assembly, a waiting position can be set for the assembled state of the part, so that the inspected and assembled part is stored in the waiting position. When a non-conforming product appears, the part located in the waiting position 50 can be put into assembly, and the waiting time can be reduced accordingly to ensure the production rhythm and reduce the waste caused by waiting at the local workstation. In this embodiment, each universal assembly station can be set with a waiting position, and it can be selected whether to use it in actual use.
[0042] The assembly equipment includes a control cabinet 14, which is in communication connection with the control modules of at least some of the universal assembly tables. The assembly action of a single universal assembly table is generally controlled by its own control module. The transmission of the workpiece on the universal assembly table is also driven by the power mechanism 41 it carries. The control module is in communication connection with the action mechanism, the assembly mechanism, etc. The height of the universal assembly table 11 in the assembly equipment is basically the same, at least the first side of the universal assembly table that cooperates with other machines is basically the same as the height of one side of the adjacent universal assembly table; at least one of the first side and the second side of the universal assembly table cooperates with one side of the universal assembly table of the assembly equipment adjacent to the side of the universal assembly table or the connecting device, such as Figure 2The fourth universal assembly table 104 is arranged adjacent to the fifth universal assembly table 105, the first side 111 of the fourth universal assembly table 104 is matched with the second side 112 of the fifth universal assembly table 105, the height of the first side of the fourth universal assembly table is the same as the height of the second side of the fifth universal assembly table, the position of the first side of the fourth universal assembly table is matched with the position of the second side of the fifth universal assembly table, so as to realize the transfer of the workpiece rack between the two universal assembly tables, the height of the conveying mechanism of the fourth universal assembly table is the same as the height of the conveying mechanism of the fifth universal assembly table, and the conveying mechanism of the fourth universal assembly table is matched with the conveying mechanism of the fifth universal assembly table for transfer. The length L1 of the conveying mechanism in its conveying direction is greater than or equal to the length L0 of the platform in this direction, the first side of the conveying mechanism is at least flush with the platform or the first side of the conveying mechanism slightly protrudes from the platform, the second side of the conveying mechanism can be flush with the platform or the second side of the conveying mechanism protrudes from the platform, and specifically, the first side and the second side of the conveying mechanism can partially protrude from the platform 11, so that the adjacent universal assembly tables are relatively convenient to match and dock. Generally, the length of its extension is shorter than the length of the workpiece rack 21, and even the length of its extension is shorter than one third of the length of the workpiece rack 21. The fourth universal assembly station and the fifth universal assembly station both include a first operating mechanism 75 and a second operating mechanism 76. In a specific embodiment, the first operating mechanism 75 can perform actions such as detection on the parts or auxiliary materials located at the first operating position 501. The first operating mechanism 75 can operate on more than two workstations, each of which performs different operations, and can transport the objects of the operation through a small conveying mechanism. The universal assembly station also has a waiting position 50, and the parts or auxiliary materials after the completion of the detection and other actions can be temporarily stored in the waiting position 50. The second operating mechanism 76 can also perform other actions on the same parts or auxiliary materials or perform detection and other actions on different auxiliary materials, and can also have a waiting position. The assembly equipment can also have a second operating position 502 on the universal assembly table. The action mechanism can perform operations such as opening on the parts or auxiliary materials such as sealing rings located at the second operating position 502. The second action mechanism 32 can grab one of the auxiliary materials and the parts to realize the assembly of the two. The second action mechanism 32 then puts the assembled parts into the corresponding position of the workpiece. The assembly mechanism 71 can assemble the workpiece and the parts, etc. The assembly mechanism 71 can specifically include screw connections, etc. The assembly mechanism 71 can be connected to the corresponding feeding mechanism through a nail feeding tube, and the screws are sent to the assembly mechanism through the feeding mechanism. The assembly equipment can also have a non-good position 503 on the universal assembly table. The action mechanism sends the parts or auxiliary materials located at the non-good position 503, such as to the area corresponding to the non-good products.
[0043] The universal assembly table can also be provided with a plurality of height adjustment members 12, so that the height of the universal assembly table is relatively adjustable within a certain range, which is convenient for docking with adjacent universal assembly tables or connecting devices. There are generally a plurality of height adjustment members 12 for fine-tuning the height of the universal assembly table.
[0044] In this embodiment, the assembly steps of a single universal assembly table are relatively more, and the assembly time is relatively longer. It is suitable for situations where the production requirements are not particularly high, such as the start of mass production of automotive components. If the production site is sufficient, a connecting device 43 can be set in a part of the assembly equipment. When the production requirements increase, the relatively slow universal assembly table can be adjusted, such as adding a universal assembly table at the position of the connecting device, reducing or splitting the action content of these universal assembly tables, and adjusting the assembly method. This can reduce the action time of a single universal assembly table and increase the output of the assembly equipment at a fixed time. That is, a universal assembly table is added to the connecting device 43 between the universal assembly tables in the assembly equipment, and the movement and adjustment of the universal assembly table are relatively convenient; in addition, the universal assembly table can be equipped with wheels for movement and a locking mechanism, so that it is more convenient to move during adjustment. The frame of the universal assembly table is basically set in a standard manner, so that the adjustment is relatively convenient, the assembly equipment is relatively flexible, and the production capacity is adjustable and fast. As in the following embodiment, the action content of at least part of the universal assembly table of the assembly equipment should be reduced accordingly. When assembling the same automotive integrated components, the production capacity is relatively high, such as the assembly time can be reduced by one third or even half. In addition, the power mechanism 41 can be disposed on the first side 111 of the universal assembly table as shown in the figure, or can be disposed on the second side 112 of the universal assembly table.
[0045] In order to increase the production capacity per unit time, the above-mentioned connection device can be changed into a universal assembly table, and the cycle time of the assembly equipment can be greatly improved. Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 4 is a partial schematic diagram of another embodiment of the assembly device, Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of two universal assembly stations in the assembly equipment. Figure 6 It is a partial enlarged schematic diagram of the docking position A of the two universal assembly tables.
[0046] The assembly equipment includes a control cabinet 14, a steering mechanism 72, and a plurality of universal assembly tables, specifically including seven universal assembly tables, or even more such as ten or more, and a connection device can be selectively configured. The assembly equipment has a control system, and the main control part of the control system is located in the control cabinet 14. Each universal assembly table is provided with an electric cabinet 13, and each universal assembly table is provided with a control module. The control cabinet 14 is communicatively connected with the control modules of at least some of the universal assembly tables. The assembly action of a single universal assembly table is generally controlled by its control module, and the transmission of the workpiece on the universal assembly table is also realized by the power mechanism 41 it carries. The control module is communicatively connected with the action mechanism, the assembly mechanism, etc. The height of the universal assembly table 11 in the assembly equipment is the same, at least the first side 111 or the second side 112 of the universal assembly table that cooperates with other machines is the same as the height of the side of the adjacent universal assembly table that cooperates with it; at least one of the first side 111 and the second side 112 of the universal assembly table cooperates with the adjacent universal assembly table or the connecting device to implement the transmission, such as the sixth universal assembly table 206 and the seventh universal assembly table 207 are arranged adjacent to each other, the first side 111 of the sixth universal assembly table 206 cooperates with the second side 112 of the seventh universal assembly table 207, the height of the first side 111 of the sixth universal assembly table is the same as the height of the second side 112 of the seventh universal assembly table, and the position of the first side 111 of the sixth universal assembly table corresponds to the position of the second side 112 of the seventh universal assembly table to realize the transmission of the workpiece rack between the two universal assembly tables. At least one of the first side 111 and the second side 112 of the universal assembly table extends out of the table 11, and the conveying mechanism 110 includes a chain belt, and the action position of the chain belt is relatively close to the ends of both sides, such as the end 1111 of the first side. In order to ensure smoother transmission of the workpiece rack, a roller 822 can be arranged near the end of the universal assembly table. The top of the roller 822 is roughly flush with the top height of the chain belt 1100. The roller 822 is arranged on both sides of the conveying mechanism.

The universal assembly table has a limiting portion 823 on the outer side of the first side, and the limiting portion 823 is higher than the top of the chain belt 1100. This can play a role in relative limiting the workpiece rack 21 placed on the top of the chain belt 1100, thereby ensuring reliable transportation of the workpiece rack during the transportation process; in order to ensure reliable transportation, the universal assembly table even sets a plurality of limiting portions in sections on the outer side of the chain belt, and the limiting portions are higher than the top of the chain belt 1100, and the conveying mechanism is lower than the top of the chain belt 1100 on the inner side of the chain belt and close to the chain belt.

[0053] On the stand 11, the universal assembly table is provided with at least two groups of first action mechanism positions 310 and second action mechanism positions 320 for cooperative installation. Two groups of second action mechanism positions 320 can also be provided.

The action mechanism position can be provided on the stand. The action mechanism position can be used for cooperative installation of the action mechanism. For example, the action mechanism is relatively fixedly installed with the stand by screws. However, the action mechanism is fixedly installed with the stand, and the part of the action mechanism used for installation is fixed with the stand. The action mechanism must have a part to implement the operation. This part is movable, such as it can grab and move the parts to be assembled from the feeding mechanism to the workpiece.

The assembly mechanism position can be set on the stand, and the assembly mechanism position can be used for the installation of the assembly mechanism such as the press-fitting device, and the assembly mechanism is fixed and installed relative to the stand by screws. However, the assembly mechanism is fixedly installed with the stand, and the part of the assembly mechanism used for installation, that is, the fixed part, is fixed or limited with the stand, and the assembly mechanism must have a part to perform the operation, and this part is movable, such as it needs to perform actions such as pressing or screwing, and this part can perform the assembly operation. The universal assembly platform is provided with at least two or more groups of operating mechanism positions, and both groups of operating mechanism positions have mounting holes, and the operating mechanism position can be used for the installation of the operating mechanism, such as the operating mechanism is fixed and installed relative to the stand by screws. The operating mechanism position can be set on the stand. However, the operating mechanism is fixedly installed with the stand, that is, the part of the operating mechanism used for installation, that is, the fixed part, is fixed or limited with the stand, and there must be a part of the operating mechanism that is to perform the operation, and this part is movable, such as if it is to perform oiling, or detection or opening, and this part can perform the corresponding operation.

In actual application, the first operating mechanism 75 is located in one of the first operating mechanism positions 750, and fixed installation is achieved through mounting holes and matching screws. The universal assembly table can also be provided with at least two groups of second operating mechanism positions 760, and the two groups of second operating mechanism positions 760 can also be partially overlapped.

The assembly equipment may also have a second operating position 502 on the universal assembly table. The operating mechanism may perform other operations such as opening on the parts or auxiliary materials such as sealing rings located at the second operating position 502. The second action mechanism 32 may grab one of the auxiliary materials and the parts to realize the assembly of the two. The second action mechanism 32 then places the assembled parts in the corresponding position of the workpiece. The assembly mechanism 71 may assemble the workpiece. The assembly mechanism 71 may specifically be a screw connection, etc. The assembly mechanism 71 may be connected to the corresponding feeding mechanism through a nail feeding tube, and the screws are sent to the assembly mechanism through the feeding mechanism. The universal assembly table may also have a non-conforming position 503. The parts or auxiliary materials located at the non-conforming position 503 no longer participate in the assembly, but may grab the parts or auxiliary materials at the waiting position for assembly. In this way, even if non-conforming products appear during the process, they can be replaced by the parts or auxiliary materials at the waiting position. This will not affect the rhythm of assembly and ensure production efficiency.
[0056] In addition, the assembly equipment can also be provided with a third operating mechanism position on the universal assembly table for installation and fixation of the third operating mechanism. The assembly equipment has an optional third operating mechanism 77, and accordingly, the third operating mechanism position can be one group or more than two groups, which can be determined according to the span of the assembly equipment, and only a group of mounting holes required is provided on the universal assembly table.
[0057] Ginseng Fig.12The universal assembly table includes a conveying mechanism. The conveying mechanism 110 of this embodiment includes a chain belt 1100 and a power mechanism 41. On the first side 111, the inner side 821 of the conveying mechanism is lower than the top of the chain belt 1100, so that the workpiece rack 21 placed on the top of the chain belt 1100 will not be hindered. The conveying mechanism has a limiting portion 823, and the limiting portion 823 is higher than the top of the chain belt 1100. In this way, the workpiece rack 21 placed on the chain belt can be relatively limited, thereby ensuring reliable transportation of the workpiece rack during the transportation process; in order to ensure reliable transportation, the conveying mechanism can even be provided with a plurality of limiting portions on the outer side of the chain belt, and the limiting portions are higher than the top of the chain belt 1100. The universal assembly table is lower than the top of the chain belt 1100 on the inner side of the chain belt, except for the blocking mechanism. In addition, a group of rollers 822 can be set near the end position of the universal assembly table, and the top of the roller 822 is roughly flush with the top height of the chain belt 1100. The rollers 822 are arranged on both sides of the conveying mechanism, and the two rollers 822 are respectively located between the end 1111 of the first side and the first part 1101 of the chain belt; the roller can also be one, which is located in the middle area of the conveying mechanism, and its top is roughly flush with the top height of the chain belt 1100.
[0058] In order to increase the adaptability of the assembly equipment, the action mechanism position and the operating mechanism position can be selected, such as the corresponding action mechanism can be set at the corresponding action mechanism position, and the corresponding operating mechanism can be set at the corresponding operating mechanism position. In this way, it can be used for the assembly of different similar integrated components. For this purpose, the workpiece rack must also be modified accordingly. Fig.14 , Fig.15 , Fig.16 , Fig.14 is a schematic diagram of an implementation method of a workpiece holder, Fig.15 , Fig.16The workpiece rack 21 includes a universal part 211 and a special part 212.

The mounting holes can be through holes, blind holes or threaded holes, which cooperate with the special part to realize the assembly of the two. Universal screws or positioning pins are relatively fixed. The universal part 211 and the special part 212 are detachably arranged. Such a workpiece rack can be used for the above-mentioned assembly equipment. The universal part of the workpiece rack cooperates with the universal assembly table, while the special part can be applied to different workpieces. In this way, the assembly equipment can be used for the assembly of different integrated components. When replacing the assembled product, the action mechanism configured on some universal assembly tables can be replaced or the action mechanism position can be replaced, and / or the operating mechanism configured on some universal assembly tables can be replaced or the operating mechanism position can be replaced, etc., and the corresponding special part of the workpiece rack can be replaced at the same time. In this way, the replacement is relatively fast and convenient, and the replacement of the assembled workpiece can be realized more quickly. In addition, by adding or reducing universal assembly tables, and combining the adjustment of the action mechanism and operating mechanism of the universal assembly table, the adjustment of production capacity can be realized. The application of assembly equipment is relatively flexible and more convenient to adapt to the needs of business adjustment. In this way, when adjusting the production line, waste can be reduced, replacement can be realized more quickly, and production efficiency can be improved.

The assembly equipment can start the lifting mechanism accordingly, and the top plate 736 can move upward for a certain distance. The positioning pin 731 can extend into the positioning hole 2111 of the workpiece rack, and cooperate with the positioning hole 2111 of the workpiece rack to achieve precise positioning. The top plate moves upward to abut against the workpiece rack and maintain a certain force state, so that it is convenient for the action mechanism or the operating mechanism, or the assembly mechanism to operate the workpiece of the workpiece rack, and at the same time, the blocking mechanism moves downward. In addition, the assembly equipment may also include a rotating mechanism (not shown in the figure), which can rotate the workpiece rack 21 together with the workpiece to a certain angle, such as 60 degrees, 90 degrees or 120 degrees, so that the workpiece is facing the operating mechanism or the action mechanism in another direction, which makes it convenient for the operating mechanism or the action mechanism to perform operations on the workpiece in another direction.
