[0033] Among the components of electric vehicles, the assembly quality of the radiator fins 8 has a great influence on the welding forming of the radiator, and the welding forming during the production process will directly affect the quality of the product.

[0034] During the actual installation of the radiator, a large number of fins need to be installed into the material slots of the radiator first, and then the fins are assembled; the fins are usually rectangular or body-shaped, small in size and large in number. The existing assembly method is mostly to manually place the fins one by one into the material slots of the radiator until the specified number is reached. This assembly method consumes a lot of manpower and has low assembly efficiency, is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and is prone to errors, greatly increasing production costs.

[0035] Therefore, the present invention provides a method for assembling a plurality of fins of a radiator for an electric vehicle, which solves the above problems existing in the prior art, realizes the automated assembly of a plurality of fins, improves the assembly efficiency and reduces the production cost. Specifically:

[0036] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a method for assembling a plurality of fins of a radiator for an electric vehicle comprises the following steps:

[0037] S1, installing the arranging tray 2 in the arranging machine 1;

[0038] Among them, a plurality of placement slots 3 are provided on the arrangement tray 2, and the placement slots 3 are used to place the radiator fins 8. The plurality of placement slots 3 are arranged in a matrix array of multiple rows and columns on the arrangement tray 2 to realize batch arrangement of multiple radiator fins 8;

[0039] In the present invention, the arranging machine 1 is an automated device for arranging and sorting parts or articles; the working principle is: the parts to be arranged are poured into the fixture plate, the relevant product parameters are set through the control system of the equipment, and then the power is turned on, and the front and back swing and left and right vibration of the main machine are used to achieve the arrangement of the parts; the completed arrangement can be coordinated with automated operations such as assembly, sorting, printing, magnetization, counting, etc.

[0040] In the present invention, the shape and size of the radiator fins 8 match the shape and size of the storage slot 3; specifically, the shape and size of the radiator fins 8 match the shape and size of the storage slot 3, which can be understood as, when the radiator fins 8 are aligned by the alignment machine 1, after the radiator fins 8 are aligned, a single radiator fin 8 can be adaptively placed in the storage slot 3;

[0041] S2, pour the radiator fins 8 onto the arranging tray 2 in the arranging machine 1, and after being arranging by the arranging machine 1, the radiator fins 8 are arranged into the storage slots 3 on the arranging tray 2;

[0042] Since the aligning machine 1 has the function of arranging and sorting parts or articles, the radiator fins 8 are arranged in a matrix array of multiple rows and columns arranged regularly after being arranged by the aligning machine, so as to facilitate the subsequent batch clamping processing of the radiator fins 8;

[0043] S3, using an air nozzle suction cup to suck up a plurality of radiator fins 8, moving them to the stacking fixture assembly 4 for storage, and stopping stacking after stacking the required number of radiator fins 8;

[0045] A plurality of stacking fixtures 5 form a matrix array with multiple rows and columns; specifically, a plurality of stacking fixtures 5 form a matrix array with multiple rows and columns, that is, a stacking fixture assembly 4 composed of a plurality of stacking fixtures 5 also presents a rectangular strip shape;

[0046] The shape and size of the stacking groove 6 match the shape and size of the radiator fin 8;

[0047] Specifically, the plurality of stacking grooves 6 on the stacking fixture assembly 4 are arranged in a matrix array, and after the air nozzle suction cup absorbs the plurality of radiator fins 8, the plurality of radiator fins 8 can be distributed in the plurality of stacking grooves 6;

[0048] More specifically, a plurality of placement slots 3 form a matrix array of multiple rows and columns on the entire material tray 2, and the matrix array is marked as matrix array one; a plurality of stacking fixtures 5 form a matrix array of multiple rows and columns, and the matrix array is marked as matrix array two; the row spacing of matrix array one and the row spacing of matrix array two can be the same or substantially the same, and the column spacing of matrix array one and the column spacing of matrix array two can be the same or substantially the same; this arrangement can ensure that after the air nozzle suction cup absorbs multiple radiator fins 8 from the entire material tray 2, the multiple radiator fins 8 can be distributed in multiple stacking grooves in the plurality of stacking fixtures 5;

[0049] In addition, a long through slot 7 connected to the stacking groove 6 is provided on the side of the stacking fixture 5. The length of the cross section of the long through slot 7 is smaller than the length of the cross section of the stacking groove 6. The long through slot 7 is mainly used to observe the stacking height and stacking condition of the radiator fins 8, and timely adjustment can be made in case of abnormal stacking.

[0050] In addition, a carrier frame may be provided at the bottom of the stacking fixture 5, and the carrier frame is used to place a plurality of stacking fixtures 5;

[0052] In step S4, a single stacking fixture 5 in the stacking fixture assembly 4 can be taken out from the carrier frame, or the stacking fixture assembly 4 can be tilted to facilitate the clamping mechanism to clamp and take out multiple radiator fins 8 arranged in a row in the stacking fixture 5, and then put them into the material slot of the radiator to complete the assembly of the radiator fins 8.

[0053] The present invention provides a method for assembling a large number of fins for a radiator of an electric vehicle, wherein clean radiator fins 8 are poured into an aligning machine 1, and the aligning machine 1 vibrates to vibrate the radiator fins 8 into a storage slot 3 in an aligning material tray 2 to complete the aligning, and after the aligning material tray 2 is taken out, the radiator fins 8 are evenly stacked into a manufactured stacking fixture assembly 4 through an air nozzle suction cup, and after stacking to a specified number (generally the number required for actual production), the stacking fixture 5 for stacking the radiator fins 8 is taken out, the stacked radiator fins 8 in the stacking fixture 5 are clamped and taken out, and then put into the material card slot of the radiator to complete the assembly;

[0054] The radiator fins 8 can be stacked in batches and automatically, thereby improving production efficiency, saving time and labor, and greatly reducing production costs.
