[0048] The following specific examples illustrate the implementation of the present invention. Those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of the present invention from the content disclosed in this specification. The present invention can also be implemented or applied through other different specific embodiments, and various details in this specification can also be modified or changed based on different viewpoints and applications without departing from the spirit of the present invention. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the following embodiments and features described therein can be combined with each other.
[0049] It should be noted that the illustrations provided in the following embodiments are only schematic representations of the basic concept of the present invention. Therefore, the figures only show the components related to the present invention and are not drawn according to the actual number, shape and size of the components in the actual implementation. In the actual implementation, the form, quantity and proportion of each component can be arbitrarily changed, and the layout of the components may also be more complex.
[0050] Example 1:
[0051] like Figures 1-22 As shown, an assembly device for a portable shoe cabinet includes a feeding structure 1 for feeding in unassembled shoe cabinet panels, a gripping structure 2 for moving shoe cabinet panels, a lifting structure 3 for supporting shoe cabinet panels, a splicing structure 4 for splicing shoe cabinet panels of different layers, and a delivery structure 5 for delivering the assembled shoe cabinet 6. The gripping structure 2 is positioned between the feeding structure 1 and the delivery structure 5. The lifting structure 3 is positioned opposite the gripping structure 2; in this example, the shoe cabinet panel supported by the lifting structure 3 is located directly below the shoe cabinet panel gripped by the gripping structure 2. The splicing structure 4 is positioned on both sides of the lifting structure 3 and is used to splice the side panels 61 between the shoe cabinet panels supported by the lifting structure 3 and the shoe cabinet panels gripped by the gripping structure 2. It should be noted that in this example, one side of the shoe cabinet 6 is a hinged side panel 61 structure, and the other side is a pin-connected side support column 62, with the side support column 62 located at both ends of the shoe cabinet panel's edge.
[0052] The feeding structure 1 includes a tray 11, a transmission component 12, and a base 13. The transmission component 12 is disposed between the base 13 and the tray 11. The base 13 is fixedly disposed on a support surface, typically on an external support table. To prevent the base 13 from wobbling, several threaded holes are provided on the base 13 for threaded connection with the support surface. The transmission component 12 delivers the tray 11 to the area corresponding to the gripping structure 2. In this example, the transmission component 12 performs a horizontal reciprocating motion, enabling it to deliver the tray 11 directly below the gripping structure 2. The transmission component 12 is equipped with cylinders for transmission power. In this example, it includes two cylinders: a first cylinder 121 and a second cylinder 122. The transmission component 12 also includes a sliding seat 123, wherein the first cylinder 121 is disposed between the sliding seat 123 and the base 13, and the second cylinder 122 is disposed between the sliding seat 123 and the tray 11. To facilitate the movement of the transmission component 12, corresponding slide rails and sliders are provided for each of the two cylinders, allowing the sliding seat 123 to slide on the base 13 and the tray 11 to slide on the sliding seat 123. It should be noted that in some other embodiments, other existing reciprocating displacement transmission mechanisms, such as a combination of a servo motor and a lead screw, can be used as the transmission component 12. The two cylinders serve two purposes: firstly, to ensure the travel length of the tray 11, allowing it to fully extend out of the base 13 and be placed under the gripping structure 2; and secondly, to ensure that the overall length of the transmission component 12 is shorter when the tray 11 is retracted, reducing spatial interference of the base 13 supporting the transmission component 12 with other external equipment.
[0053] A buffer 14 is also provided on the base 13. The buffer 14 is fixedly mounted on the base 13 and faces the sliding seat 123. A buffer 14 is also provided on the sliding seat 123 and faces the tray 11 or the second slider 4324. The buffer 14 is used to reduce the shaking when the tray 11 stops moving during the retraction process, so as to ensure that the position of the tray 11 is relatively stable and can form a corresponding relationship with the gripping structure 2, so as to facilitate the gripping structure 2 to grip the shoe cabinet board on the tray 11.
[0054] The base 13 is also equipped with a position sensor 15 for detecting the position of the tray 11; the position sensor 15 is fixedly mounted on the base 13, and the position sensor 15 is correspondingly mounted to the tray 11; in this example, the position sensor 15 is a contact switch. When the power component controls the tray 11 to move towards the base 13, when the tray 11 moves to contact the position sensor 15, the power component is controlled to stop, so that the tray 11 can stop at the designated position.
[0055] The gripping structure 2 includes a gripping cylinder 21 for controlling its up-and-down movement, finger cylinders 22 for clamping the shoe cabinet panel, and a gripping plate 23. The gripping plate 23 is located at the movable end of the gripping cylinder 21, and the fixed end of the gripping cylinder 21 is connected to an external support structure. The finger cylinders 22 are fixedly located below the gripping plate 23. In this example, four finger cylinders 22 are located below the gripping plate 23, distributed along the vertices of a square, with the spacing between them corresponding to the edge of the tray 11. The gripping device also includes a guide rod and a guide plate. The guide plate is fixedly connected to the external support structure, one end of the guide rod is fixedly connected to the gripping plate 23, and the other end of the guide rod is slidably connected to a hole on the guide plate, controlling the gripping plate 23 to achieve stable up-and-down sliding and ensuring that the finger cylinders 22 clamp the shoe cabinet panel stably without shaking.
[0056] The lifting structure 3 includes two mirror-image lifting modules 31, which are respectively located on both sides of the gripping structure 2. Each lifting module 31 includes a vertical motion platform 311 for controlling vertical movement, a horizontal motion platform 312 for controlling horizontal movement, and a lifting plate 313. The horizontal motion platform 312 is slidably mounted on the vertical motion platform 311, and the lifting plate 313 is slidably mounted on the horizontal motion platform 312. In this example, the vertical motion platform 311 uses a servo motor and lead screw combination, along with a slider and slide rail, to achieve vertical movement. The horizontal motion platform 312 uses a cylinder combined with a slider and slide rail to achieve horizontal movement. The lifting structure 3 also includes a push plate module 32, which is correspondingly positioned to the lifting module 31. The push plate module 32 is used to push the shoe cabinet 6 lifted by the lifting module 31 to a set position, preventing the shoe cabinet 6 from being placed crookedly, which would affect the assembly of the shoe cabinet 6 by the splicing structure 4. The pusher module 32 has two pushing and clamping directions in the horizontal plane, with the two directions spaced 90° apart. In this example, one direction is the movement direction of the feeding structure 1 in feeding the shoe cabinet panel, and the other direction is the direction in which the two supporting structures 3 are distributed opposite each other. The pusher module 32 includes a pusher assembly 321 and a fixing assembly 322, which are correspondingly arranged. The pusher assembly 321 includes a cylinder or an electric cylinder to realize the action. The pusher assembly 321 moves towards the fixing assembly 322 to clamp the shoe cabinet panel lifted on the supporting structure 3, so that its position on the supporting structure 3 remains stable.
[0057] The splicing structure 4 includes a pin-connecting module 41 for installing the side panel 61 on the pin-connecting side, a snap-fit module 42 for installing the side support column 62 on the hinged side, and a flipping module 43 for controlling the movement of the side panel 61 of the shoe cabinet panel to a set position. The pin-connecting module 41 and the snap-fit module 42 are respectively located on both sides of the flipping module 43. The flipping module 43 flips the side panels 61 on both sides of the shoe cabinet panel into the corresponding positions in the pin-connecting module 41 and the snap-fit module 42. In this example, the pin-connecting module 41, the snap-fit module 42, and the flipping module 43 are all located in the area between the two supporting modules 31, with the pin-connecting module 41 and the snap-fit module 42 respectively located close to one side of the supporting module 31.
[0058] The pin-connecting module 41 includes a pusher assembly 411 for driving in the pins; it should be noted that the pin-connecting side of the shoe cabinet 6 can be in the form of at least two side support columns 62, wherein two side support columns 62 in each side support column 62 are respectively hinged to the upper and lower shoe cabinet panels, and the ends of the two side support columns 62 that are close to each other are pin-connected. Therefore, the number and position of the pusher assembly 411 are consistent with the position of the side support columns 62 in the side panel 61 of the shoe cabinet 6. In this example, there are three side support columns 62 on the side of the shoe cabinet 6; the pin-connecting module 41 also includes a tensioning assembly 412 and a support assembly 413 for clamping the side support columns 62 of the shoe cabinet 6 and pulling the side support columns 62 to the pusher assembly 411. The system includes a transverse moving assembly 414 and a feeding assembly 415 for feeding in pins; a support assembly 413 is slidably mounted on the transverse moving assembly 414, and the transverse moving assembly 414 controls the support assembly 413 to move toward or away from the side panel 61 of the shoe cabinet 6; a push pin assembly 411 is also fixedly mounted on the support assembly 413; tensioning assemblies 412 are respectively mounted on the upper and lower sides of the push pin assembly 411 to correspond to the upper and lower side support columns 62; the tensioning assembly 412 includes a moving part 4121 and a clamping part 4122, and the clamping part 4122 is fixedly mounted on the moving end of the moving part 4121; the feeding assembly 415 adopts a vibrating feeding plate and is connected to the push pin assembly 411.
[0059] The clamping member 4122 includes grippers 4122a and a connecting plate 4122b; one side of the connecting plate 4122b is fixedly connected to the moving end of the moving member 4121, which in this example is a cylinder; two grippers 4122a are rotatably arranged on the other side of the connecting plate 4122b, which can clamp the side support column 62 of the shoe cabinet 6 or restrict the side support column 62 when they come together; the grippers 4122a are provided with There is a sliding hole 4122c. On the upper and lower sides of the push pin structure, there are protruding limiting blocks corresponding to the sliding hole 4122c, which are embedded in the sliding hole 4122c. The sliding holes 4122c on the two grippers 4122a are close to each other at the end near the connecting plate 4122b and far away from each other at the end away from the connecting plate 4122b. The sliding hole 4122c is used to control the opening and closing of the two grippers 4122a when they move with the connecting plate 4122b. When the gripper 4122a moves toward the moving part 4121 following the connecting plate 4122b, the ends of the gripper 4122a move closer together due to the action of the sliding hole 4122c and the limiting block, thus closing and clamping the side support. Similarly, when the gripper 4122a moves away from the moving part 4121 following the connecting plate 4122b, the ends of the gripper 4122a separate due to the action of the sliding hole 4122c and the limiting block, thus opening and releasing the side support. A clamping area 4122d is also provided on the side of the gripper 4122a that moves closer together. When the two grippers 4122a close together, the clamping area 4122d restricts the side support column 62 clamped by the gripper 4122a, ensuring that the side support column 62 can only move within the clamping area 4122d. Because it is difficult for the gripper 4122a to ensure that it is clamped at the same position on the side support column 62 when clamping it, a clamping area 4122d needs to be set on the gripper 4122a. As long as the side support column 62 is confined within the clamping area 4122d, and with the cooperation of the moving part 4121, the side support column 62 can be pulled or pressed to the position corresponding to the push pin assembly 411, ensuring that the hole on the side support column 62 is aligned with the push pin assembly 411. The sliding hole 4122c also has an extension at the end away from the connecting plate 4122b; when the two grippers 4122a close, the extensions of the sliding holes 4122c on the two grippers 4122a are parallel to each other in the horizontal plane; when the extension of the sliding hole 4122c slides with the limiting block, it is convenient for the gripper 4122a to press the side support column 62 towards the moving part 4121, thereby pressing the upper and lower side support columns 62.
[0060] The lateral movement component 414 uses a slide rail and cylinder structure to achieve lateral movement. The support component 413 is fixedly mounted on the slider in the lateral movement component 414, and the slider is slidably mounted on the slide rail. In this example, the support component 413 is a square support plate. A push pin component 411 is provided at the lower part of the support component 413, and the lateral movement component 414 is provided at the upper part of the support component 413. The lateral movement component 414 also includes a buffer 14. The buffer 14 is fixedly mounted at predetermined positions on both sides of the support component 413 to limit the range of motion of the support component 413 on the lateral movement component 414. It can also be used to reduce the shaking when the lateral movement component 414 stops at its limit position, ensuring that the process of the tension component 412 clamping and releasing the side support column 62 is relatively smooth.
[0061] The push pin assembly 411 includes a support housing 4111, a first push pin member 4113 for pushing the pin to the side of the side support column 62, and a second push pin member 4114 for pushing the pin into the side support column 62. In this example, both the first push pin member 4113 and the second push pin member 4114 are cylinders. Tensioning assemblies 412 are respectively provided on the upper and lower sides of the support housing 4111. One end of the support housing 4111 is connected to the support assembly 413, and the other end of the support housing 4111 is provided with a slot 4112 for embedding into the side support column 62 of the shoe cabinet 6. The second push pin member 4114 is provided on the outer side of the slot 4112, and tensioning assemblies 412 are respectively provided on the upper and lower sides of the slot 4112. In this example, the bottom of the slot 4112 is designed as a raised V-shape to facilitate the insertion of the upper and lower side supports. When the support column 62 is pressed, the ends of the side support columns 62 can be staggered. The housing is also provided with a channel for the passage of the pin. One end of the channel is provided with a first pusher 4113. The movable end of the first pusher 4113 extends into the channel, and the other end of the channel extends through to the inner side of the slot 4112. The housing is also provided with a through hole near the first pusher 4113 that communicates with the channel. The through hole is connected to the feeding assembly 415, which facilitates the feeding assembly 415 to send the pin into the channel. After the pin is sent into the channel through the through hole on the side of the channel, the first pusher 4113 pushes the pin to the front of the second pusher 4114. Then, the second pusher 4114 pushes the pin onto the side support column 62 that is stuck in the slot 4112 of the support housing 4111, thus realizing the pin connection of the upper and lower side support columns 62.
[0062] In this example, the lateral movement component 414 first controls the stretching component 412, which opens the gripper 4122a, to move to both sides of the side support column 62 of the shoe cabinet 6. Then, the moving component 4121 in the stretching component 412 controls the connecting plate 4122b to move towards the moving component 4121, causing the gripper 4122a to close. The gripper 4122a confines the side support column 62 within the clamping area 4122d and moves into the slot 4112 of the support housing 4111, pressing the side support column 62 into the slot 4112, thus stretching the shoe cabinet 62. The moving part 4121 in component 412 stops moving, and the push pin component 411 drives the pin into the side support column 62. The moving part 4121 in the stretching component 412 controls the gripper 4122a to open, releasing the side support column 62 clamped by the gripper 4122a. Finally, the lateral movement component 414 controls the stretching component 412 to move away from the side support column 62 of the shoe cabinet 6, so that the stretching component 412 leaves the assembly area of the shoe cabinet 6, making it convenient for the shoe cabinet panels of other layers to be sent into the area, and continuing the assembly of the side support column 62 or the side panel 61.
[0063] The snap-fit module 42 includes a clamping assembly 421 for clamping the side plate 61; it also includes a displacement assembly 422; wherein the displacement assembly 422 includes a first displacement member 4221 for displacement in the horizontal plane, a second displacement member 4222 for displacement in one direction in the vertical plane, and a third displacement member 4223 for displacement in another direction in the horizontal plane; the moving directions of the first displacement member 4221 and the third displacement member 4223 are spaced apart by a set angle; the second displacement member 4222 is disposed at the movable end of the first displacement member 4221, the third displacement member 4223 is disposed at the movable end of the second displacement member 4222, and the clamping assembly 421 is disposed at the movable end of the third displacement member 4223. The first displacement member 4221 is used to control the clamping assembly 421 to move closer to and further away from the fixed side panel 61 of the shoe cabinet 6 in the horizontal direction; the second displacement member 4222 moves in the vertical direction and is used to control the height of the clamping assembly 421 in the vertical direction, so as to control the clamping assembly 421 to form a corresponding relationship with the side panels 61 of different layers in the shoe cabinet 6; the third displacement member 4223 is used to control the side panel 61 to move after the clamping assembly 421 clamps the side panel 61, so as to form a rotating snap-fit relationship between the side panel 61 and the upper and lower panels of the shoe cabinet 6.
[0064] Both the first displacement member 4221 and the third displacement member 4223 employ a cylinder-slide rail structure, using the cylinder to push the slide and achieve displacement. The second displacement member 4222 employs an electric cylinder-slide rail structure, using the electric cylinder to accurately control the sliding distance. In this example, the second displacement member 4222 is used to control vertical displacement. Since the shoe cabinet 6 has multiple layers during stacking and assembly, and the joining height changes when assembling different layers, the second displacement member 4222, which controls vertical movement, needs to use an electric cylinder. The displacement directions of the first displacement member 4221 and the second displacement member 4222 are spaced 90° apart.
[0065] The clamping assembly 421 includes two rotary clamping cylinders 4211, which are respectively disposed on the left and right sides of the third support plate and are used to clamp the two side edges of the side plate 61 of the shoe cabinet 6. The clamped side plate 61 is in contact with the moving part in the third displacement member 4223.
[0066] The flipping module 43 includes a first motion component 431 for controlling a first motion direction, a second motion component 432 for controlling a second motion direction, a connecting support component 433, and a rotating component 434 for rotating and lifting the side panel 61 and side support column 62 of the shoe cabinet 6; wherein the second motion component 432 is disposed on the movable part of the first motion component 431, and the position of the second motion component 432 is controlled by the first motion component 431; the connecting support component 433 is disposed on the movable part of the second motion component 432, and the position of the connecting support component 433 is controlled by the second motion component 432. A rotating assembly 434 is provided on the connecting support assembly 433; the rotating assembly 434 includes a rotating power component 4341, a rotating rod 4342, and a lever 4343 for actuating the side support; the rotating rod 4342 is rotatably connected to the connecting support assembly 433, and the rotating power component 4341 is drively connected to the rotating rod 4342; the lever 4343 is fixedly mounted on the rotating rod 4342. It should be noted that in this example, the lever 4343 is sleeved on the rotating rod 4342 through a ring structure, and the ring structure is locked by screws. After loosening the ring structure, the position of the lever 4343 on the rotating rod 4342 can be adjusted. During implementation, the lever 4343 first moves to a position close to the side support of the shoe cabinet 6 under the action of the first motion component 431 and the second motion component 432; then, the rotating rod 4342 rotates along with the rotating power component 4341, driving the lever 4343 to rotate. The lever 4343 moves the side support and moves it into the external fixed structure. The external fixed structure is a structure used to help the side support to be hinged, including hinged with pins, or directly connecting the hinge structure in the side support. After the lever 4343 moves the side support column 62 and the side plate 61 on the upper and lower plates of the shoe cabinet 6 into the designated positions of the snap-fit module 42 and the pin-fit module 41, the snap-fit module 42 and the pin-fit module 41 act to realize the hinge of the side plate 61 and the pin-fit of the side support column 62.
[0067] Both the first and second movement directions are located in the horizontal plane, and the first and second movement directions are spaced apart by a set angle; in this example, the first and second movement directions are spaced 90° apart, enabling the control connection support assembly 433 to move arbitrarily within a defined range on the horizontal plane. The first movement assembly 431 includes a first electric cylinder 4311, a first slide rail 4312, and a first slider 4313; the movable end of the first electric cylinder 4311 is connected to the second movement assembly 432; the first slide rail 4312 is fixedly installed, and the first slider 4313 is slidably installed on the first slide rail 4312; in this example, there are two first slide rails 4312, which are symmetrically arranged; the first slider 4313 is also fixedly connected to the second movement assembly 432. The second motion component 432 includes a sliding plate 4321, a second electric cylinder 4322, a second slide rail 4323, and a second slider 4324. The sliding plate 4321 is fixedly mounted on the first slider 4313, and the sliding plate 4321 is also connected to the movable end of the first electric cylinder 4311. The second slide rail 4323 is fixedly mounted on the sliding plate 4321. In this example, there are two second slide rails 4323, which are symmetrically arranged. The second slider 4324 is slidably mounted on the second slide rail 4323. The second electric cylinder 4322 is also fixedly mounted on the sliding plate 4321, and the movable end of the second electric cylinder 4322 is connected to the connecting support component 433. The connecting support component 433 is also fixedly connected to the second slider 4324. The first electric cylinder 4311 controls the connecting support component 433 to move toward or away from the side support of the shoe cabinet 6, and the second motion component 432 controls the lever 4343 on the connecting support component 433 to move toward or away from the side support of the shoe cabinet 6. Opposite to the first electric cylinder 4311, an elastic limiting block is also provided. The elastic limiting block is disposed on one or both sides of the second motion component 432 in the direction of movement of the first electric cylinder 4311. This allows the second motion component 432 to be blocked by the elastic limiting block when it moves to a set position following the first electric cylinder 4311, thus controlling the range of movement of the second motion component 432 and reducing swaying when the second motion component 432 stops. In this example, the second electric cylinder 4322 is fixedly disposed above the sliding plate 4321, while the connecting support component 433 is slidably disposed below the sliding plate 4321. The sliding plate 4321 has a hollow sliding hole, and the connecting support component 433 has a connector passing through the sliding hole. The connector is fixedly disposed on the connecting support component 433 and is also fixedly connected to the movable end of the second electric cylinder 4322. The sliding hole limits the sliding length of the connector, thereby limiting the movement path of the connecting support component 433. In this example, a cover 44 covering the second motion component 432 is also provided on the sliding plate 4321 of the second motion component 432.
[0068] The rotating power component 4341 is a servo motor. In this example, the two servo motors in the rotating power component are controlled by pulse signals to facilitate control of the rotation angle. A synchronous toothed belt 4345 for transmission is provided between the servo motor and the rotating rod 4342. Synchronous pulleys 4344 that mesh with the synchronous toothed belt 4345 are respectively provided on the servo motor and the rotating rod 4342. The rotating power component 4341 also includes a pushing assembly 435 for supporting the pushing side of the lever 4343. The pushing assembly 435 is fixedly mounted on the connecting support assembly 433 and is correspondingly mounted on the rotating rod 4342. The pushing assembly 435 includes a third cylinder 4351. The movement direction of the third cylinder 4351 is located in the direction and is perpendicular to the axis of the rotating rod 4342. In this example, a long plate parallel to the axis of the rotating rod 4342 is fixedly mounted on the side of the connecting support assembly 433. The third cylinder 4351 is fixedly mounted on the long plate. The side of the long plate is also used to rotatably connect the rotating rod 4342. The connecting support structure has two parallel rotating rods 4342; each of the two rotating rods 4342 has a lever 4343 attached to it; the two rotating rods 4342 are located on opposite sides of the long plate. It should be noted that the levers 4343 on the same rotating rod 4342 have the same angle relative to the rotating rod 4342. Furthermore, the levers 4343 are sleeved on the outer circumference of the cylindrical rotating rod 4342, and their position on the rotating rod 4342 is adjustable.
[0069] The end of the rotating rod 4342 is also provided with an angle detection component 436 for detecting the rotation angle of the rotating rod 4342; the angle detection component 436 includes a photoelectric sensor 4361 and a turntable 4362; the turntable 4362 is fixedly mounted on the rotating rod 4342, and the turntable 4362 and the rotating rod 4342 are concentrically arranged; the photoelectric sensor 4361 is correspondingly arranged with the turntable 4362, and the photoelectric sensor 4361 is fixedly mounted on the connecting support structure; the turntable 4362 is also provided with a notch for detecting the angle, which can accurately control the rotation angle of the rotating rod 4342, and thus control the angle of the side support of the lever 4343.
[0070] In this example, through the coordinated movement of the first motion component 431 and the second motion component 432, the lever 4343 on one of the rotating rods 4342 is moved to the side panel 61 or the side support column 62 near the side of the shoe cabinet 6. For the side panel 61, after the side panel 61 is rotated and lifted into a vertical state, it is clamped by the snap-fit module 42, and the side panel 61 of the upper shelf of the shoe cabinet 6 is snapped into the upper surface of the lower shelf of the shoe cabinet 6. For the side support column 62, after the side support column 62 is rotated and lifted, it is clamped by the pin-fit module 41, and the pin-fit of the side support column 62 between the upper and lower shelves is completed.
[0071] The delivery structure 5 includes a conveyor belt positioned directly below the lifting structure 3. When the lifting structure 3 lowers the shoe cabinet panel to a certain height, the panel contacts the conveyor belt and remains above it, subsequently being transported to a designated location by the conveyor belt. In this example, the conveyor belt is located between the two lifting modules 31.
[0072] In the above structure, the cylinder is controlled by a PLC, while the electric cylinder is controlled by a bus fiber optic cable.
[0073] During implementation, by setting up the splicing structure 4, the bottom shoe cabinet panel supported by the lifting structure 3 and the top shoe cabinet panel gripped by the grasping structure 2 are spliced together, achieving efficient and automatic assembly of the portable folding shoe cabinet 6; by setting up the feeding structure 1 and the feeding structure 5, the assembled or unassembled shoe cabinet panels are transported, reducing manual handling costs; by setting up the grasping structure 2 in conjunction with the lifting structure 3, on the one hand, the shoe cabinet panels are moved, and on the other hand, a gap is formed between the upper and lower panels, which facilitates the splicing structure 4 to splice the side panels 61 and side support columns 62 between the upper and lower panels; by setting up the splicing structure 4, which includes a pin-connecting module 41, a snap-fit module 42 and a flipping module 43, the flipping module 43 realizes the rotation of the side support columns 62 and the side panels 61, rotating the side support columns 62 and the side panels 61 to the action positions corresponding to the pin-connecting module 41 or the snap-fit module 42, realizing the pin connection of the side support columns 62 and the hinge connection of the side panels 61, completing the connection of the upper and lower panels.
