[0047] like Figure 1-2 As shown, the door body 100 of the refrigeration equipment includes an insulating glass 110 and a plurality of frames 120 arranged around the insulating glass 110. The frames 120 can be bonded around the insulating glass 110 by glue (such as silicone glue). Two adjacent frames 120 can be connected by a corner code 130. The corner code 130 is generally L-shaped and includes a first connecting portion and a second connecting portion that are relatively vertical. The first connecting portion and the second connecting portion can be connected to a frame 120 respectively by fasteners such as screws. In this way, multiple frames 120 can be connected and fixed as a whole by using multiple corner codes 130. Specifically, a first connecting hole 121 for connecting with the corner code 130 is provided on one side of the frame 120 in the thickness direction, and a second connecting hole 131 cooperating with the first connecting hole 121 is provided on the corner code 130. In this embodiment, the one side of the door body 100 in the thickness direction where the first connecting hole 121 is located is defined as the back side of the door body 100, and the other side is defined as the front side of the door body 100. The first connection hole 121 is arranged upward, that is, the back side of the door body 100 is arranged upward, and vice versa, the front side of the door body 100 is arranged upward. The frame 120 and the corner bracket 130 can be fixedly connected by connecting the first connection hole 121 and the second connection hole 131 with a fastener.

[0048] like Figure 3-7As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides an assembly line 200 of a refrigeration equipment door body, comprising a conveying device 10, a centering assembly device 20, a flipping device 30 for flipping the door body 100, and a lifting device 40 for lifting the door body 100. The conveying device 10 is extended along a first direction, and is used to convey the insulating glass 110 and the frame 120 along its extension direction, and to convey the door body 100 after the insulating glass 110 and the frame 120 form the door body 100. The flipping device 30 is used to flip the door body 100 by 180°.

[0049] The centering assembly device 20 includes a first centering assembly device 210 and a second centering assembly device 220 , and the flipping device 30 includes a first flipping device 310 . The first centering assembly device 210 , the first flipping device 310 , the second centering assembly device 220 , and the lifting device 40 are arranged in sequence along the conveying path of the conveying device 10 .

[0050] The centering assembly device 20 includes a first lifting frame 21 and a first driving member 22 for driving the first lifting frame 21 to rise and fall. The first lifting frame 21 includes a supporting plate 211 located above it and a plurality of clamping blocks 212 arranged on the supporting plate 211. The plurality of clamping blocks 212 are arranged to form a clamping space for clamping the door body 100.

[0051] The centering assembly device 20 also includes a plurality of vertically arranged push rods 23 and a third driving member 24 for driving the plurality of push rods 23 to rise and fall relative to the supporting plate 211. Driven by the third driving member 24, the plurality of push rods 23 have a first position in which their top surfaces are higher than the clamping block 212 and a second position in which their top surfaces are lowered to below the top surface of the supporting plate 211.

[0052] Furthermore, the centering assembly device 20 also includes a connecting frame 25 connecting multiple push rods 23, and the third driving member 24 is arranged between the connecting frame 25 and the supporting plate 211. The third driving member 24 can drive the connecting frame 25 to rise and fall relative to the supporting plate 211. The multiple push rods 23 can be raised and lowered under the drive of the connecting frame 25, and multiple openings can be opened on the supporting plate 211 for the push rods 23 to pass through.

[0053] like Figure 8 As shown, the lifting device 40 includes a second lifting frame 41 and a second driving member 42 for driving the second lifting frame 41 to lift and lower. The second lifting frame 41 includes a lifting plate 411 located above it and a plurality of bearing blocks 412 arranged on the lifting plate 411 for bearing the door body 100. When the door body 100 moves to the lifting device 40, the lifting plate 411 rises, and the plurality of bearing blocks 412 lift the door body 100 from the conveying device 10. Then, a flexible belt can be manually wrapped around the door body 100 to prevent the door body 100 from deformation.

[0054] like Figure 9-12 As shown, the flip device 30 includes a first bracket 31, a rotating shaft 32 rotatably connected to the first bracket 31, a driving component for driving the rotating shaft 32 to rotate, a flip frame 34 connected to the rotating shaft 32, a suction cup component 35 slidably connected to the flip frame 34 along the up-down direction, and a fourth driving member 36 for driving the suction cup component 35 to rise and fall. The suction cup component 35 is used to absorb the door body 100, and includes a connecting member 351 slidably connected to the flip frame 34 along the up-down direction, and a plurality of suction cups 352 connected to the connecting member 351. The plurality of suction cups 352 are located on one side of the axis of the rotating shaft 32 in the first direction, and are also located on one side of the axis of the rotating shaft 32 in the height direction (such as Fig.11 As shown), the plurality of suction cups 352 are turned over with the turning frame 34, and can have a third position (as shown) located below the top surface of the conveying device 10. Fig.10 ), a fourth position (as shown) located above the conveying device 10 after flipping from the first position Fig.11 shown).

[0055] The multiple suction cups 352 are in the third position in the initial state. After the door body 100 is transported to the top of the multiple suction cups 352 by the conveying device 10, the fourth driving member 36 drives the multiple suction cups 352 to rise, and the suction cups 352 adsorb the door body 100. Then the flipping frame 34 flips and flips the multiple suction cups 352 to the fourth position. During this process, the door body 100 flips 180° following the suction cups 352. Then the fourth driving member 36 drives the door body 100 to descend, and the suction cups 352 release the door body 100. The door body 100 falls on the conveying device 10 and continues to be transported by the conveying device 10. It can be seen that the flipping device 30 not only flips the door body 100, but also makes the door body 100 move forward a certain distance.

[0056] The driving assembly includes a driving motor 331, a first sprocket connected to the output shaft of the driving motor 331, a second sprocket connected to the rotating shaft 32, and a transmission chain connected to the first sprocket and the second sprocket. The driving motor 331 drives the first sprocket to rotate, and the rotating shaft 32 is rotated through the transmission of the transmission chain and the second sprocket. The rotation of the rotating shaft 32 can drive the turning frame 34 to rotate, so that the suction cup assembly 35 can be turned over. At least two limit blocks 37 are arranged on the first bracket 31, and the at least two limit blocks 37 are respectively arranged on both sides of the first direction to limit the turning position of the turning frame 34.

[0057] In this embodiment, Fig.10As shown, the conveying device 10 includes at least two conveying sections 11 arranged along a first direction, and the flipping device 30 is arranged between two adjacent conveying sections 11. When the flipping device 30 drives the door body 100 to flip, the door body 100 is simultaneously transferred from one conveying section 11 to another conveying section 11. Specifically, the conveying section 11 includes a second bracket 111, and two conveying lines 112 respectively located on both sides of the second bracket 111 in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction.

[0058] When the door body 100 is placed on the conveying section 11, its length direction is arranged along the second direction. In this case, both sides of the length of the door body 100 exceed the conveying section 11. Therefore, in conjunction with the reference Figure 5 As shown, the supporting plate 211 includes a first supporting plate 2111, two second supporting plates 2112 respectively located on both sides of the first supporting plate 2111 in the second direction, and gaps are formed between the first supporting plate 2111 and the two second supporting plates 2112 for the conveying line 112 to pass through, so that the supporting plate 211 can match the length of the door body 100, and will not interfere with the two conveying lines 112 during the lifting process.

[0059] Similarly, with reference Fig.12 As shown, the flip frame 34 includes a first flip frame 341, and two second flip frames 342 respectively located on both sides of the first flip frame 341 in the second direction, and gaps for the conveyor line 112 to pass through are formed between the first flip frame 341 and the two second flip frames 342, and the first suction cup assembly 35 and a fourth driving member 36 are connected to the first flip frame 341 and the two second flip frames 342. In this way, the flipping of the flip frame 34 will not interfere with the two conveyor lines 112, and the distribution of the positions of the flip frame 34 and the suction cup 352 also matches the length of the door body 100.

[0060] like Figure 6-7 As shown in 14-15, the plurality of clamping blocks 212 include a first clamping block 2121 and a second clamping block 2122 respectively located on both sides of the first direction, a third clamping block 2123 and a fourth clamping block 2124 respectively located on both sides of the second direction, and the clamping space is formed by the first clamping block 2121, the second clamping block 2122, the third clamping block 2123 and the fourth clamping block 2124. The centering assembly device 20 also includes a fifth driving member 2125 for driving the first clamping block 2121 to move along the first direction, and a sixth driving member 2126 for driving the third clamping block 2123 to move along the second direction. The fifth driving member 2125 and the sixth driving member 2126 drive the first clamping block 2121 and the third clamping block 2123 to move respectively, so as to clamp and release the door body 100. The second clamping block 2122 and the fourth clamping block 2124 can be fixedly connected to the bearing plate 211.

[0061] Specifically, three first clamping blocks 2121 and three third clamping blocks 2122 are provided, so that a first clamping block 2121 and a second clamping block 2122 are provided on a first supporting plate 2111 and two second supporting plates 2112. The centering assembly device 20 also includes a first sliding frame 26 slidably connected to the supporting plate 211 along the first direction, and a plurality of connecting rods 27 connecting the first sliding frame 26 and the plurality of first clamping blocks 2121. The fifth driving member 2125 is provided between the supporting plate 211 and the first sliding frame 26, and is used to drive the first sliding frame 26 to slide relative to the supporting plate 211 along the first direction, thereby driving the three first clamping blocks 2121 to move along the first direction. The first sliding frame 26 includes a connecting plate 261 and a connecting seat 262. The connecting plate 261 is located below the conveyor line 112. One side of the connecting seat 262 is connected to the connecting plate 261, and the other side is slidably connected to the supporting plate 211. A plurality of connecting rods 27 connect the connecting plate 261 and the first clamping block 2121. The connecting plate 261 and the conveyor line 112 are spaced apart in the height direction. In this way, the connecting plate 261 will not interfere with the conveyor line 112 during the process of rising and falling with the supporting plate 211.

[0062] The centering assembly device 20 also includes two adjustment plates 28 respectively arranged on both sides of the supporting plate 211 in the second direction. The two adjustment plates 28 can be adjusted in the second direction. The sixth driving member 2126 includes a main body connected to the first adjustment plate 28 and an output part telescopically arranged relative to the main body. The third clamping block 2123 is connected to the output part, and the fourth clamping block 2124 is connected to the other adjustment plate 28. In this way, the centering assembly device 20 can adapt to door bodies 100 of different lengths.

[0063] At least one first docking hole 281 is provided on the adjustment plate 28, and a plurality of second docking holes 2127 are provided on the supporting plate 211 along the second direction. The centering assembly device 20 also includes a latch member 29. When the latch member 29 connects the first docking hole 281 and different second docking holes 2127, the position of the adjustment plate 28 can be adjusted in the second direction.

[0064] Similar to the carrying plate 211 in the centering assembly device 20, the lifting plate 411 includes a first lifting plate 4111 and two second lifting plates 4112 respectively located on both sides of the first lifting plate 4111 in the second direction, and gaps are formed between the first lifting plate 4111 and the two second lifting plates 4112 for the conveyor line 112 to pass through. In this way, the lifting plate 411 can match the length of the door body 100, and will not interfere with the two conveyor lines 112 during the lifting process.

[0065] In this embodiment, two first centering assembly devices 210 are provided, and the two first centering assembly devices 210 can work simultaneously to ensure that the process rhythm of assembling the door body 100 can be coordinated.

[0066] The present invention also provides a method for producing a refrigeration equipment door body 100, the method using the above-mentioned refrigeration equipment door body assembly line body 200 and comprising the following steps:

[0067] S1. Provide an insulating glass 110 and place the insulating glass 110 on a conveying device 10 for conveying. During conveying, a person may manually check the appearance of the insulating glass 110 to determine whether there are defects such as scratches on the surface of the insulating glass 110. When necessary, a person may also manually attach an advertising logo to the insulating glass 110.

[0068] S2. Provide multiple frames 120, install corner brackets 130 for connecting two adjacent frames 120 in some of the frames 120, and apply glue on the inner sides of multiple frames 120. The insulating glass 110 is rectangular, and the number of frames 120 is specifically four, and the number of corner brackets 130 is also four, so as to connect the frames 120 in pairs. However, at this time, the corner brackets 130 are not connected to the two frames 120 by fasteners, and the corner brackets 130 are only pre-inserted into the frames 120. When electrical components such as identification lights are provided on the door body 100, wires can also be pre-inserted into the frames 120. The frames 120 that have completed the above process can be placed on the insulating glass 110 and transported on the transport device 10 together with the insulating glass 110.

[0069] A semi-automatic glue applying device (not shown) may also be provided beside the assembly line 200. The operator may use the glue gun of the glue applying device to apply glue on the inner side of the frame 120. The glue dispensing speed and flow rate of the glue gun may be controlled by a control switch provided thereon. Since glue has a pungent odor and is a flammable item, the assembly line 200 further includes a dedicated glue applying room 50. The conveying device 10 is provided through the glue applying room 50. The glue applying room 50 is preferably made of transparent materials such as glass, and is provided with explosion-proof fire extinguishing supplies and temperature control supplies.

[0070] S3, bonding the frame 120 to the four sides of the insulating glass 110 to form the door body 100;

[0071] S4, when the door body 100 moves to the first centering assembly device 210, the carrier plate 211 rises, so that the door body 100 is placed on the carrier plate 211 of the first centering assembly device 210, and the multiple clamping blocks 212 on the carrier plate 211 clamp the door body 100 around for a preset time length, so that the door body 100 can be shaped. The preset time here is preferably 10s-15s. After that, the clamping blocks 212 are released, the carrier plate 211 descends, and the door body 100 falls on the conveying device 10. The door body 100 is continuously conveyed by the conveying device 10, and at this time, the first connecting hole 121 is set downward.

[0072] The above step S3 is specifically as follows: the insulating glass 110 moves to the first centering assembly device 210, the carrying plate 211 rises, and the push rod 23 rises to the first position to lift the insulating glass 110 from the conveying device 10. The lifted insulating glass 110 is located above the clamping block 212. At this time, the operator bonds the frame 120 around the insulating glass 110 to form the door body 100. After the bonding is completed, the push rod 23 descends to the second position, and the door body 100 falls on the carrying plate 211 of the first centering assembly device 210. In other embodiments, step S3 can also be completed manually on the conveying device 10.

[0073] S5, the door body 100 moves to the first flipping device 310, and the first flipping device 310 drives the door body 100 to flip 180 degrees so that the first connecting hole 121 is set upward, so as to facilitate the subsequent connection between the corner code 130 and the frame 120.

[0074] S6. Use fasteners to connect the first connection hole 121 and the second connection hole 131, so that the multiple frames 120 are connected as a whole through the corner code 130. This step can be performed at the second centering assembly device 220. When the door body 100 moves to the top of the second centering assembly device 220, the door body 100 is placed on the bearing plate 211 of the second centering assembly device 220, and the multiple clamping blocks 212 on the bearing plate 211 clamp the door body 100. Specifically, the bearing plate 211 rises to a position where its top surface is higher than the conveying device 10, and the push rod 23 lifts the door body 100 from the conveying device 10, and then the push rod 23 descends, so that the door body 100 falls on the bearing plate 211. After the door body 100 falls on the bearing plate 211, the multiple clamping blocks 212 clamp the four sides of the door body 100, so that the door body 100 maintains a preset shape. When the door body 100 is maintained in a preset shape, fasteners are used to connect the frame 120 and the corner bracket 130, so that the multiple frames 120 are fixedly connected as a whole, and the insulating glass 110 is fixed in the area surrounded by the frame 120. After the frame 120 is connected as a whole, glue can be applied at the joint to prevent the frame 120 from flashing.
