Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of air conditioner technology, and in particular to a production apparatus and method for a motor bracket. Background Technology

[0002] In air conditioner outdoor unit production lines, the motor bracket must be installed and secured before screwing it in place. However, the mounting positions of the motor brackets often vary between different air conditioner models. This means current production lines cannot meet the production needs of different models, or they cannot dynamically adjust the motor bracket's position based on the specific model, resulting in substandard product quality and a low overall pass rate. Furthermore, the lack of sophisticated control logic in current production lines, relying solely on pre-programmed procedures, prevents the timely detection of defective products. This allows unqualified products to be directly transferred to the next stage of production, leading to potential quality issues and wasted resources. Summary of the Invention

[0063] Please see Figures 1 to 3 The embodiment of the present application provides a production device of a motor support, which is suitable for air conditioner outdoor unit 1 production, and the production device comprises:

[0064] A conveying part 2 is used for conveying the air conditioner outdoor unit 1 and the motor support 11; the conveying part 2 comprises a mounting area, a detection area and a backflow area;

[0065] A clamping positioning assembly 3 is provided with a first detection piece 31, which is used for first station installation detection on the in-place motor support 11, and according to the first station installation detection result, the motor support 11 is clamped to the mounting area or the backflow area;

[0066] The locking clamp assembly 4 is provided with a second detection member 41 for performing second station installation detection on the motor support 11 in the installation area, and according to the result of the second station installation detection, the motor support 11 in the installation area is transmitted to the reflow area, or the motor support 11 in the installation area is installed and fixed, and according to the result of the installation and fixing operation, the motor support 11 in the installation area is transmitted to the detection area or the reflow area;

[0067] The visual detection assembly 5 is arranged in the detection area, and is used for performing product detection on the motor support 11 in the detection area;

[0068] The control module is connected with the clamping positioning assembly 3, the locking clamp assembly 4 and the visual detection assembly 5 respectively, and is used for controlling the clamping positioning assembly 3, the locking clamp assembly 4 and the visual detection assembly 5 to perform corresponding operations.

[0069] In the embodiment, the production device includes a transmission part 2, a clamping positioning assembly 3, a locking clamp assembly 4, a visual detection assembly 5 and a control module. When the motor support 11 is in place, the first detection member 31 of the clamping positioning assembly 3 performs first station installation detection on the motor support 11, and according to the result of the first station installation detection, the motor support 11 is transmitted to the installation area or the reflow area, that is, when the result of the first station installation detection is passed (for example, the set detection standard is met), the motor support 11 is transmitted to the installation area, and when the result of the first station installation detection is not passed (for example, the set detection standard is not met), the motor support 11 is transmitted to the reflow area. Here, the so-called reflow area refers to an unqualified area for preventing unqualified products, in which area, unqualified products can be handled by manual operation, and after the handling is completed, the products can continue to be placed in the transmission part 2 for re-detection. When the motor support 11 is in the installation area, the second detection member 41 of the locking clamp assembly 4 performs second station installation detection on the motor support 11, if the detection fails, the product is transmitted to the reflow area for manual handling, and if the detection passes, the locking clamp assembly 4 can perform installation and fixing operation, and during the installation and fixing operation, production detection is continued to further ensure production quality. Similarly, if there is an unqualified production detection during the installation and fixing operation, the product is transmitted to the reflow area, and if the production detection during the installation and fixing operation is qualified, the product is transmitted to the detection area for the next step of detection. When the motor support 11 is in the detection area, the visual detection assembly 5 performs product detection on the motor support 11 to determine whether the motor support 11 is qualified, accordingly, if the product detection fails, the product is continuously transmitted to the reflow area, and if the product detection is qualified, the product is transmitted to the next process.

[0070] In general, the embodiment controls the clamping positioning assembly 3, the locking clamp assembly 4 and the visual detection assembly 5 through the control module, so that the clamping positioning assembly 3, the locking clamp assembly 4 and the visual detection assembly 5 respectively perform production detection on the motor support 11 in different production processes. In this way, unqualified products in the production process can be timely removed, avoiding the flow of unqualified products into the next process, and preventing the production of unqualified products due to abnormal equipment units and the like. Therefore, the production quality of the motor support 11 of the air conditioner outdoor unit 1 is improved, and the product qualification rate is improved. Moreover, based on the production detection of the clamping positioning assembly 3, the locking clamp assembly 4 and the visual detection assembly 5, a completely closed-loop production mode of the air conditioner outdoor unit 1 automatic motor support 11 fixing unit can be formed, and different models of production can be compatible.

[0071] In actual application scenarios, the control module can be a host computer, a corresponding server or a service terminal, etc. In some optional embodiments, the host computer is used as the control module, and a mechanical arm 7 is further arranged and connected with the clamping positioning assembly 3 and the locking clamp assembly 4. In this way, the host computer can send corresponding control instructions to the mechanical arm 7, and the mechanical arm 7 drives the clamping positioning assembly 3 or the locking clamp assembly 4 to the corresponding operation position according to the control instructions, so that the clamping positioning assembly 3 or the locking clamp assembly 4 performs production detection at the operation position. It can also be understood that the air conditioner outdoor unit 1 and the motor support 11 in the embodiment are in position, which means that the motor support 11 reaches a specified transmission position. The position can be in the installation area, so that after the first station installation detection is completed, the installation and fixing operation can be directly performed in the installation area. Of course, the in-position position can also be earlier than the installation area, so that after the first station installation detection is completed, the motor support 11 is transmitted to the installation area for installation and fixing operation. The process of the qualified product in the embodiment is: in position → installation area → detection area → next process, and the process of the unqualified product is different detection position directly transmitted to the backflow area.

[0072] In an embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2, the clamping positioning assembly 3 includes: Figure 4

[0073] a positioning support 32;

[0074] a sliding table air cylinder 33 arranged above the positioning support 32;

[0075] a clamping jaw 34 arranged at the front end of the sliding table air cylinder 33, and the first detection piece 31 is installed on the clamping jaw 34;

[0076] an adjustment module 35 arranged between the positioning support 32 and the sliding table air cylinder 33, used for adjusting the positions of the sliding table air cylinder 33 and the clamping jaw 34. ​

[0077] In this embodiment, the clamping positioning assembly 3 specifically comprises a positioning support 32, a sliding table air cylinder 33, and a clamping jaw 34, and further comprises an adjusting module 35 for adjusting the extension distance of the sliding table air cylinder 33 and the clamping position of the clamping jaw 34. The adjusting module 35 can include a longitudinal adjusting module 351 and a transverse adjusting module 352. In addition, the first detection member 31 is installed on the clamping jaw 34, so that the product can be detected more clearly. Specifically, a linear photoelectric detection sensor can be used for work station installation detection.

[0078] Specifically, the linear photoelectric detection sensor can first detect the arrival signal of the motor support 11, and then the clamping jaw 34 is controlled to extend to both ends of the motor support 11 through the adjusting module 35. Then, the clamping jaw 34 clamps the motor support 11 left and right through the contraction of the sliding table air cylinder 33, so as to fix the motor support 11. After the motor support 11 is fixed, the linear photoelectric detection sensor installed on the clamping jaw 34 performs first work station installation on the motor support 11 to determine whether the motor support 11 has the problem of incorrect work station installation in the previous process. If the position of the motor support 11 is detected to be correct, the clamping positioning assembly 3 can be driven by the mechanical arm 7 to move the clamped and fixed motor support 11 to the installation area, waiting for nut installation. If the position of the motor support 11 is detected to be incorrect, the clamping positioning clamp releases the fixed motor support 11 and retracts, and the motor support 11 is directly rejected to the backflow area for placing unqualified products and waits for manual processing. In actual application scenarios, whether the installation hole can be aligned can be used as the detection standard here, that is, if the installation hole can be aligned, it is determined that the position of the motor support 11 is correct, and if the installation hole cannot be aligned, it is determined that the position of the motor support 11 is incorrect. Of course, in other scenarios, other detection standards can also be used for determination.

[0079] In an embodiment, the locking clamp assembly 4 comprises:

[0080] A locking clamp 41 for installing and fixing the motor support 11; the second detection member 41 is installed on the locking clamp 41;

[0081] A torsion detection device installed on the locking clamp 41 for detecting the installation and fixing degree of the locking clamp 41;

[0082] A vibrating disc in communication with the locking clamp 41 through a pipeline for feeding the locking clamp 41.

[0083] In this embodiment, the locking clamp assembly 4 includes a locking clamp 41, a torsion detection device, and a vibrating disc and other components, wherein the torsion detection device and a second detection member 41 for second station installation detection of the product are installed on the locking clamp 41, and specifically, the second detection member 41 can be a visual assembly. When the motor support 11 reaches the installation area, the locking clamp assembly 4 takes a photo of the installation hole position of the motor support 11 through the visual assembly on the locking clamp 41 to determine the center of the installation hole position of the motor support 11, thereby facilitating subsequent installation and fixing operations. Here, if the center of the installation hole position is detected and the center position meets the set standard, it is determined that the second station installation detection is passed. If the center of the installation hole position is not detected, or the center is detected but the center position deviates from the set standard, it is determined that the second station installation detection is failed. For the motor support 11 that fails the second station installation detection, it can be transmitted to the reflow area by the mechanical arm 7 or the like for manual processing. For the motor support 11 that passes the second station installation detection, installation and fixing operations can be performed thereon.

[0084] It can be understood that before the installation and fixing operation, the vibrating disc will feed (i.e., convey the screws) to the locking clamp 41 through the pipeline, and during the installation and fixing operation, the locking clamp 41 will perform a blow pin operation to screw and fix the motor support 11. Here, if the locking clamp 41 still cannot detect the feeding after the vibrating disc feeds continuously for multiple times, or cannot detect the feeding each time, the locking clamp 41 can report abnormal information to the control module, such as the upper computer, to prompt the user to feed the screws to the vibrating disc or to perform fault detection and elimination on the vibrating disc.

[0085] Thereafter, during the installation and fixing operation, the servo motor on the locking clamp 41 drives the screw to perform a screwing operation to complete the corresponding screw installation. During this period, the torsion detection device detects and compares the torsion value of the locking clamp 41. When the torsion value reaches the set completion value, it means that the screw installation is completed, and at this time, the locking clamp 41 can stop the screwing operation for this screw. When the torsion value still does not reach the set completion value after being twisted to a certain extent, it is determined that the installation and fixing operation is unqualified, and the corresponding motor support 11 is transmitted to the reflow area for manual detection of the abnormality. In actual application scenarios, two screws are installed on the motor support 11 during the installation and fixing operation. If the torsion values of the two screws or any one of the screws do not reach the set completion value, it is determined that the installation and fixing operation is unqualified.

[0086] In an embodiment, as shown in Figure 5 the visual detection assembly 5 includes an industrial camera for collecting image data and a camera support for installing the industrial camera.

[0087] In this embodiment, after the mounting and fixing operation is completed, in order to ensure that the product has a high production pass rate, the motor bracket 11 transported to the detection area is subjected to mounting standard detection by the visual detection assembly 5, such as detection of whether the screw has scratches, is skewed or is missing, etc. Specifically, the image data of the mounting and fixing area of the motor bracket 11 can be collected by the industrial camera of the visual detection assembly 5, and image processing is performed, and then it is judged whether the mounting and fixing area meets the preset mounting standard. If the mounting and fixing area meets the preset mounting standard, it is determined that the motor bracket 11 is produced with a pass, and the motor bracket 11 is transported to the next process; if the mounting and fixing area does not meet the preset mounting standard, it is determined that the motor bracket 11 is produced with a fail, and the motor bracket 11 is transported to the backflow area for manual processing.

[0088] In an embodiment, as shown in Figure 6 A blocker 6 is arranged between the mounting area and the detection area.

[0089] The embodiment further ensures the reliability of the detection result by arranging the blocker 6, avoids that individual products directly flow into the next area or the next process without detection, and thus affects the final product pass rate. In actual application, the position of the motor bracket 11 in place can be the mounting area, or other areas different from the mounting area. For example, the position of the motor bracket 11 in place can be the mounting area, and then when the air conditioner outdoor unit 1 and the motor bracket 11 are in place on the transmission part 2, the blocker 6 can be controlled to rise the self-provided blocking tooling plate, so as to realize positioning of the product. For another example, when the product completes the mounting and fixing operation, the blocker 6 can be controlled to lower the blocking tooling plate, so that the product is transported to the detection area.

[0090] As shown in Figure 7 The embodiment of the application further provides a production method of a motor bracket, which is applied to the production device of the motor bracket as claimed in any one of the above, and the production method comprises steps S101-S103.

[0091] In step S101, when the motor bracket 11 is in place, the first detection piece 31 is used to perform first station mounting detection on the motor bracket 11, and the motor bracket 11 is transported to the mounting area or the backflow area according to the result of the first station mounting detection.

[0092] Step S102, when the motor support 11 is located in the installation area, the second detection piece 41 is used to detect the installation of the motor support 11 in the second station, and according to the detection result, the motor support 11 is transmitted to the reflow area, or the locking clamp assembly 4 is controlled to perform the installation and fixing operation on the motor support 11, and according to the operation result, the motor support 11 is transmitted to the detection area or the reflow area.

[0093] Step S103, when the motor support 11 is located in the detection area, the visual detection assembly 5 is used to detect the product to determine whether the motor support 11 is qualified.

[0094] In this embodiment, when the motor support 11 is in place, the first detection piece 31 of the clamping positioning assembly 3 is used to detect the installation of the motor support 11 in the first station, if the detection result is passed, the motor support 11 is transmitted to the installation area, if the detection result is not passed, the motor support 11 is transmitted to the reflow area. Here, the reflow area refers to an unqualified area for preventing unqualified products, in which area, unqualified products can be handled by manual operation, and after the handling is completed, the products can be placed in the transmission part 2 for re-detection. When the motor support 11 is located in the installation area, the second detection piece 41 of the locking clamp assembly 4 is used to detect the installation of the motor support 11 in the second station, if the detection is not passed, the product is transmitted to the reflow area for manual handling, and if the detection is passed, the locking clamp assembly 4 can be used to perform the installation and fixing operation, and during the operation, the production detection is continued to further ensure the production quality. Similarly, if the production detection is not qualified during the installation and fixing operation, the product is transmitted to the reflow area, and if the production detection is qualified during the installation and fixing operation, the product is transmitted to the detection area for the next step detection. When the motor support 11 is located in the detection area, the visual detection assembly 5 is used to detect the product to determine whether the motor support 11 is qualified, accordingly, if the product detection is not qualified, the product is transmitted to the reflow area, and if the product detection is qualified, the product is transmitted to the next process.

[0095] The motor support 11 is detected in different production processes by the clamping positioning assembly 3, the locking clamp assembly 4 and the visual detection assembly 5, so that unqualified products in the production process can be timely removed, the unqualified products are prevented from flowing into the next process, and the production of unqualified products due to abnormal equipment units and the like is prevented, thereby improving the production quality of the motor support 11 of the air conditioner outdoor unit 1 and improving the product qualification rate. Moreover, based on the production detection of the clamping positioning assembly 3, the locking clamp assembly 4 and the visual detection assembly 5, a completely closed-loop production mode of the air conditioner outdoor unit 1 automatic motor support 11 fixing unit can be formed, and production of different models can be compatible.

[0096] In actual application, the implementation subject of the production method provided in the embodiment can be a control module in a production device, or an independent upper computer or other server, service terminal and the like.

[0097] In an embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, the step S101 includes steps S201-S203. Figure 8

[0098] According to the first detection standard, the first detection piece 31 performs first station installation detection on the motor support 11 to determine whether the motor support 11 meets the first detection standard;

[0099] If it is determined that the motor support 11 meets the first detection standard, the motor support 11 is transmitted to the installation area.

[0100] If it is determined that the motor support 11 does not meet the first detection standard, the motor support 11 is transmitted to the backflow area.

[0101] In the embodiment, when the arrival signal of the motor support 11 is received, the clamping positioning assembly 3 performs a corresponding clamping action, and then the first detector on the clamping positioning assembly 3 performs first station installation on the motor support 11 to determine whether the motor support 11 has a problem of incorrect station installation in the previous process. If the position of the motor support 11 is detected to be correct, the motor support 11 can be moved to the installation area to wait for nut installation. If the position of the motor support 11 is detected to be incorrect, the clamping positioning clamp releases the fixed motor support 11 and retracts, and the motor support 11 is directly removed to the backflow area for placing unqualified products and waits for manual processing. In actual application scenarios, whether the installation hole position can be aligned can be used as the detection standard here, that is, if the installation hole position can be aligned, it is determined that the position of the motor support 11 is correct, and if the installation hole position cannot be aligned, it is determined that the position of the motor support 11 is incorrect. Of course, in other scenarios, other detection standards can be used for determination. ​

[0102] In an embodiment, as shown in Figure 9 S301-S303.

[0103] S301, the second detection piece 41 is used to perform second station installation detection on the motor support 11 according to a preset second detection standard, so as to determine whether the motor support 11 meets the preset second detection standard;

[0104] S302, if it is determined that the motor support 11 meets the preset second detection standard, the locking clamp assembly 4 is controlled to perform installation and fixing operation on the motor support 11;

[0105] S303, if it is determined that the motor support 11 does not meet the preset second detection standard, the motor support 11 is transmitted to the backflow area.

[0106] Further, as shown in Figure 10 S401-S403.

[0107] S401, the locking clamp 41 acquires loading information, and determines whether there is a loading failure according to the loading information;

[0108] S402, if the loading information meets a preset loading standard, it is determined that there is no loading failure, and the installation and fixing operation is continued to be performed;

[0109] S403, if the loading information does not meet the preset loading standard, it is determined that there is a loading failure, and a failure alarm is issued.

[0110] In this embodiment, when the motor support 11 reaches the installation area, the second detection piece 41 on the locking clamp 41, for example, a vision assembly, performs second station installation detection on the motor support 11, for example, takes a photo of the installation hole of the motor support 11, so as to determine the center of the installation hole of the motor support 11, thereby facilitating subsequent installation and fixing operation. Here, if the center of the installation hole is detected and the position of the center meets the set standard, it can be determined that the second station installation detection is passed, and if the center of the installation hole is not detected or the center is detected but the position of the center deviates from the set standard, it can be determined that the second station installation detection is failed. The motor support 11 that fails the second station installation detection can be transmitted to the backflow area by the mechanical arm 7 or the like for manual processing, and the motor support 11 that passes the second station installation detection can be subjected to installation and fixing operation.

[0111] It can be understood that before the installation and fixing operation, the vibration disc will feed the locking clamp 41 through the pipeline (that is, convey the screws), and during the installation and fixing operation, the locking clamp 41 will perform the blowing nail operation to screw and fix the motor support 11. Here, if the locking clamp 41 still cannot detect the feeding after the vibration disc feeds continuously for multiple times, or cannot detect the feeding each time, the locking clamp 41 can report abnormal information to the control module, such as the upper computer, to prompt the user to feed the screws to the vibration disc or to detect and eliminate the fault of the vibration disc.

[0112] In addition, in another embodiment, as shown in Figure 11 S501-S503. It includes:

[0113] Step S501, when controlling the locking clamp assembly 4 to install and fix the motor support 11, detecting the torque value generated in the installation and fixing operation of the locking clamp assembly 4, and comparing the torque value with the preset torque threshold value;

[0114] Step S502, if the torque value reaches the preset torque threshold value, controlling the locking clamp 41 to stop the current installation and fixing operation, and transmitting the motor support 11 to the detection area after the locking clamp assembly 4 completes all installation and fixing operations;

[0115] Step S503, if the torque value does not reach the preset torque threshold value, transmitting the motor support 11 to the backflow area.

[0116] During the installation and fixing operation, the servo motor on the locking clamp 41 drives the screw to rotate to complete the corresponding screw installation action. During this period, the torque detection device detects and compares the torque value of the locking clamp 41. When the torque value reaches the set completion value (that is, the torque threshold value), it means that the screw installation is completed, and at this time the locking clamp 41 can stop the rotation action for this screw. When the torque value does not reach the set completion value after being twisted to a certain degree, it is determined that the installation and fixing operation is unqualified, and the corresponding motor support 11 is transmitted to the backflow area to wait for manual detection of the abnormality. In actual application scenarios, two screws are installed on the motor support 11 during the installation and fixing operation. If the torque values of the two screws or any one of them do not reach the set completion value, it is determined that the installation and fixing operation is unqualified.

[0117] In an embodiment, as shown in Figure 12 S601-S604.

[0118] Step S601, the visual detection assembly 5 collects image data of the mounting and fixing area of the motor support 11;

[0119] Step S602, the image data of the mounting and fixing area is processed to determine whether the mounting and fixing area meets the preset mounting standard;

[0120] Step S603, if the mounting and fixing area meets the preset mounting standard, it is determined that the motor support 11 is qualified for production, and the motor support 11 is transmitted to the next process;

[0121] Step S604, if the mounting and fixing area does not meet the preset mounting standard, it is determined that the motor support 11 is unqualified for production, and the motor support 11 is transmitted to the backflow area.

[0122] In this embodiment, after the mounting and fixing operation is completed, in order to ensure that the product has a high production qualification rate, the visual detection assembly 5 is used to detect the mounting standard of the motor support 11 transmitted to the detection area, such as detecting whether the screw has scratches, is skewed or missing, etc. Specifically, the image data of the mounting and fixing area of the motor support 11 can be collected by the industrial camera of the visual detection assembly 5, and image processing is performed, and then it is determined whether the mounting and fixing area meets the preset mounting standard. If the mounting and fixing area meets the preset mounting standard, such as the screw does not have scratches, is skewed or missing, etc., it is determined that the production qualification detection is passed, and the motor support 11 is transmitted to the next process; if the mounting and fixing area does not meet the preset mounting standard, it is determined that the production qualification detection is not passed, and the motor support 11 is transmitted to the backflow area for manual processing.
