[0041] In some embodiments, Figure 3 As shown, two matching positions 11 are provided, and the two matching positions 11 are centrally symmetrically arranged relative to the shelf body 1, and the positioning device is correspondingly provided with two positioning members 3. Specifically, the storage area 20 and the temporary storage area 40 are both fixed with two positioning members 3, and the two matching positions 11 are centrally symmetrically arranged with respect to the central axis of the shelf body 1, so the two positioning members 3 cooperate to accurately position the shelf body 1 at a preset position in a two-dimensional space, and can achieve precise positioning of the shelf body 1 while simplifying the structure. Of course, in other embodiments, the positioning members 3 can be provided with other numbers, such as three, four, five, etc., and the matching positions 11 are provided correspondingly to the number of positioning members 3, and no special limitation is made here.

[0042] Specifically in this embodiment, the shelf body 1 is provided with the matching positions 11 at opposite ends along the diagonal extension direction thereof. It can be understood that the matching positions 11 are provided along the diagonal direction of the shelf body 1, so that the shelf body 1 can be more accurately positioned without affecting the placement of the copper busbar.

[0043] In some embodiments, Figure 5 As shown, the shelf body 1 is provided with a plurality of dispersed second support columns 2, and the shelf body 1 can be supported on the second support columns 2 of another shelf body 1 by its own second support columns 2 to form a stacked state.

On the other hand, the supporting effect of the second support columns 2 also forms an accommodating space between the stacked shelf bodies 1 and the shelf bodies 1 for placing copper bars, so that copper bars can be stored in each layer of the stacked shelf bodies 1.

[0044] In some embodiments, the matching position 11 is a first support column arranged on the shelf body 1, and the first support column is a vertical penetrating structure, and the shelf body 1 is positioned by the first support column being passed through the positioning member 3. Among them, the first support column can be a vertically penetrating square tube structure, and the positioning member 3 can be passed through the first support column, and the shelf bodies 1 of two adjacent layers can also be supported by two of the first support columns against each other, and cooperate with the above-mentioned second support column 2 to jointly support the stacked shelf bodies 1, thereby improving the structural stability of the stacked state of the shelf bodies 1. In addition, in other embodiments, the first support column is not limited to a square tube structure, and other shapes of tube structures such as round tubes can be applicable, and no special restrictions are made here. In addition, in this embodiment, the positioning member 3 can be adapted to the structure of the second support member set as a square column structure, and can also be set as a circular column structure, so that it can be passed through the first support column, and no special restrictions are made here.

Among them, copper bars of various widths can be stored in each shelf body 1, and copper bars of different widths can also be placed in stacked different shelf bodies 1. In a shelf body 1, specifically according to the width of the corresponding copper bar placed, the positioning shaft 5 is inserted into the positioning hole 14 of the positioning hole group at the corresponding width of the shelf body 1, so that the copper bar can be limited to the shelf body 1 through the cooperation of the positioning shaft 5 and the positioning hole 14, so that the copper bars of different widths can be placed in the shelf body 1 effectively and regularly, ensuring the positioning accuracy of the copper bars during the processing, facilitating the identification and grasping of mechanical grippers and other automated equipment, and improving the processing efficiency.

[0047] In some embodiments, Figure 3As shown, the shelf body 1 includes two first connecting rods 12 and a plurality of second connecting rods 13, and the two first connecting rods 12 are arranged in parallel; the opposite ends of the second connecting rod 13 are respectively connected to the two first connecting rods 12, and each second connecting rod 13 is arranged at intervals, and the length of the first connecting rod 12 is greater than the length of the second connecting rod 13. Specifically, the second connecting rod 13 is provided with the positioning hole 14, and the second supporting column 2 is dispersedly arranged on the first connecting rod 12. Among them, the first connecting rod 12 and the second connecting rod 13 are connected to form a long square frame structure, so as to adapt to the structure of the copper bar and carry and place the copper bar; and by arranging the second supporting column 2 on the two first connecting rods 12, it is possible to effectively avoid the second supporting column 2 from hindering the placement of the copper bar, and it is possible to form a barrier around the copper bar to prevent the copper bar from sliding out. In addition, in order to improve the limiting effect on the width direction of the copper bar, the second connecting rod 13 with the positioning hole 14 is provided with at least three, so as to cooperate to jointly limit the width direction of each position of the copper bar, and further improve the regularity of the placement of the copper bar.

[0048] In some embodiments, Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, at least two lifting positions 4 are provided on the copper bar shelf 10, and the first transfer device 50 includes a movable arm and at least two hooks connected to the movable arm, and the movable arm drives the hooks to move between the storage area 20 and the temporary storage area 40, and the hooks are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence with the lifting positions 4, and the hooks can be hooked tightly on the lifting positions 4.

[0049] In some embodiments, Figure 3 As shown, a connecting plate 41 is provided on the shelf body 1, two limiting columns 42 are provided between the connecting plate 41 and the shelf body 1, and a limiting space is formed between the two limiting columns 42, and a groove is provided on the side of the connecting plate 41 close to the shelf body 1 corresponding to the limiting space, and the groove is the hanging position 4. Specifically, the connecting plate 41 is provided above the shelf body 1 along the length direction of the shelf body 1, and the opposite ends of the connecting plate 41 are respectively connected to the second support columns 2, and the height of the connecting plate 41 is lower than the height of the second support columns 2, so as to avoid the connecting plate 41 hindering the stacking between the shelf bodies 1, and two limiting columns 42 are provided between the connecting plate 41 and the shelf body 1, and a limiting space for the hook of the first transfer device 50 to enter is formed between the two limiting columns 42, and the supporting strength of the connecting plate 41 can be improved, so that the hook of the first transfer device 50 can be accurately hooked at the groove of the connecting plate 41.

[0050] Specifically, the four hanging positions 4 are evenly arranged around the shelf body 1, so that the shelf body 1 can be smoothly hooked and transferred. Of course, in other embodiments, the hanging positions 4 can also be provided with two, three or other numbers, as long as the shelf body 1 can be smoothly hooked and transferred, and no special limitation is made here.

[0051] In some embodiments, Figure 2 As shown, the processing device 70 includes a processing table 71 and at least two clamping devices 72; each of the clamping devices 72 is arranged on the same side, and the clamping devices 72 are clamped on the same side of the copper bar and can transfer the copper bar from the end of the conveying device 30 to the processing table 71. Among them, since the copper bar is a slender thin material with low structural strength and easy to deform, compared with the clamping method on both sides in the prior art, it is easy to generate a squeezing force from both sides to the middle of the copper bar, resulting in the problem of easy deformation of the copper bar. In this embodiment, multiple clamping devices 72 are arranged on the same side of the copper bar. Through the same side clamping method, the copper bar can be smoothly transferred from the end of the conveying device 30 to the processing table 71 for processing, and no squeezing force from both sides to the middle of the copper bar is generated, thereby effectively avoiding the problem of structural deformation of the copper bar. Specifically, the clamping device 72 includes a clamping drive device and a clamping member connected to the output end of the clamping drive device, wherein the clamping drive device first drives the clamping member to open, then drives the clamping member to approach the copper bar and clamp the copper bar, and then transports the copper bar to the processing table 71 for processing. The clamping member is a clamping plate structure, and the clamping drive device is a conventional driving element, which can drive the clamping member to open or clamp and drive the clamping member to move in three-dimensional space, and no special description is given here.

[0052] In some embodiments, Figure 2 As shown, a stopper 73 is provided between the conveying device 30 and the processing table 71, and the stopper 73 is provided on the other side opposite to the clamping device 72. Since the clamping device 72 is clamped on one side of the copper bar, the position of the copper bar can be limited and guided by providing the stopper 73, so as to cooperate with the clamping device 72 to lock the copper bar and keep the copper bar moving along the direction of the stopper 73, that is, the clamping device 72 drives the copper bar to move forward along the guide direction of the stopper 73 to avoid position deviation during movement.

[0053] In some embodiments, the second transfer device 60 includes a mobile driving device and a suction cup, wherein the output end of the mobile driving device is connected to the suction cup and drives the suction cup, such as a sponge suction cup, to adsorb the copper busbar in the temporary storage area 40 and transfer it to the conveying device 30, wherein the mobile driving device is a conventional driving element that can drive the suction cup to move in three-dimensional space, and is not specifically described herein.

[0054] In some embodiments, Figure 2 As shown, the processing table 71 includes a cutting station 80, a bending station 711 and a punching and riveting station 712, and the conveying device 30, the cutting station 80, the bending station 711 and the punching and riveting station 712 are arranged in sequence; wherein, the cutting station 80 and the bending station 711 are arranged near the end of the conveying device 30, wherein the cutting station 80 and the bending station 711 can be an integrated structure, and the cutting station 80 is located at the front end of the bending station 711, and the cutting station 80 is provided with a cutting device, which is used to cut the copper bar so that the copper bar entering the processing area is cut into segments of a preset length, wherein the cutting device is a conventional automatic cutting machine, which can automatically cut the copper bar, and is not specifically described here. The bending station 711 is provided with a conventional bending machine, and through the clamping and conveying of the clamping device 72, the front and rear ends of the copper bar can be quickly conveyed to the bending machine in sequence for bending operation, so that the ends of the copper bar can be bent and formed respectively. A conventional riveting machine is provided at the riveting station 712 to perform riveting operations on the copper bar. Specifically in this embodiment, four riveting stations 712 are provided, and the four riveting stations 712 are provided in sequence, which can simultaneously realize the processing of a maximum of four plug interfaces of the copper bar. Riveting is the main processing function of the processing center, so by providing four riveting stations 712, the processing efficiency can be greatly improved.

[0055] There are four clamping devices 72, two of which form a first clamping assembly 721, which can move between the end of the conveying device 30 and the bending station 711 to transfer the copper busbar conveyed by the conveying device 30 to the cutting station 80 for cutting, and transfer the copper busbar to the bending station 711 for bending; the other two clamping devices 72 form a second clamping assembly 722, which can move between the bending station 711 and the punching and riveting station 712 to transfer the copper busbar after the bending process to the punching and riveting station 712 for punching and riveting.

[0056] When the copper bar is transported to the area of ​​the first clamping assembly 721 through the conveying device 30, the two clamping devices 72 of the first clamping assembly 721 clamp the same side of the copper bar and align the left and right side margins of the copper bar, and then clamp the front end of the copper bar into the bending station 711 for bending and forming the front end of the copper bar. After the front end of the copper bar is bent, the two clamping devices 72 of the second clamping assembly 722 continue to clamp the same side of the copper bar. After the second clamping assembly 722 clamps, the first clamping assembly 721 is released again to avoid the copper bar The deviation of the position needs to be readjusted, the copper bar is clamped and the rear end of the copper bar is driven to enter the cutting station 80 for cutting, and then enter the bending station 711 to bend and shape the rear end of the copper bar. After the rear end of the copper bar is bent and shaped, the two clamping devices 72 of the second clamping assembly 722 clamp the copper bar and enter the riveting station 712, which can meet the riveting requirements of the four sockets of the copper bar at most at the same time. After the riveting is completed, the two clamping devices 72 of the second clamping assembly 722 cooperate to transport the copper bar to the material transportation device 90 for unloading. It should be noted that the area of ​​the conveying device 30 and the clamping area of ​​the clamping device 72 cannot overlap, otherwise a collision will occur; and the two clamping assemblies can move independently and independently perform the operation of clamping the copper bar, which can improve the transportation efficiency. The table top of the clamping area is a universal ball table assisted in movement (without a power system), and the upper and lower spaces of the universal ball are elastic and adjustable. The clamping device 72 passes through this area and the ball is displaced downward under pressure without affecting the movement of the clamping device 72.

[0057] In some embodiments, Figure 2 As shown, a material unloading and transporting device 90 is further provided at one end of the processing device 70 away from the conveying device 30, and the material unloading and transporting device 90 is used for unloading and transporting the processed copper bars, wherein the material unloading and transporting device 90 is provided at the end of the punching and riveting station 712, and the second clamping assembly 722 clamps the copper bars after punching and riveting and transfers them to the material unloading and transporting device 90 for unloading and transporting, and the positioning device is provided on one side of the material unloading and transporting device 90, and the shelf body 1 can be positioned and placed on the side of the material unloading and transporting device 90, so that the processed copper bars can be transferred to the shelf body 1 for placement, so that the processed copper bars can be further transferred to other positions for subsequent processing operations.

[0061] The conveying device 30 conveys the copper bar to the processing device 70;

[0062] The processing device 70 processes the copper busbar.

[0063] The copper bar processing method is characterized in that the copper bar rack 10 is provided to stack the copper bars, and the copper bar rack 10 stacked with the copper bars can be first stored in the storage area 20, and a temporary storage area 40 is provided on at least one side of the conveying device 30. When processing is required, the copper bar rack 10 is directly transferred from the storage area 20 to the temporary storage area 40 by the first transfer device 50, wherein the temporary storage area 40 is provided on the side of the conveying device 30. When processing and loading are required, the copper bars on the copper bar rack 10 located at the temporary storage area 40 are directly transferred to the conveying device 30 by the second transfer device 60, and can be transported to the processing device 70 for processing.

In addition, the setting of the temporary storage area 40 can ensure that the processing device 70 always has enough copper bar stock for processing during working hours. Therefore, the automatic transfer of the copper bar from the storage area 20 to the processing device 70 can be realized, and the transfer and processing efficiency can be effectively improved, thereby realizing the integrated production of automatic transfer and processing.

[0064] The above embodiments are not exhaustive enumerations of the present invention, and there may be multiple other implementations not listed. Any replacement and improvement made without violating the concept of the present invention shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
