[0095] Embodiment 1
[0096] As an important part of home electrical control, wall switches are widely used in homes, offices and industrial facilities to control the opening or closing of electrical equipment, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the existing wall switch usually includes a base 1, a static contact assembly 2, a moving contact assembly 3 and a panel. The static contact assembly 2 and the moving contact assembly 3 are arranged in the base 1, and the panel is assembled on the base 1. The button 41 on the panel can move the moving contact assembly 3 to make the static contact assembly 2 conductive or disconnected, thereby turning the electrical device on or off.
[0097] With the diversification of user needs, the functions of wall switches are becoming increasingly rich. According to the functions of wall switches, wall switches can be divided into four types, namely single-open single-control switch, single-open double-control switch, double-open single-control switch and double-open double-control switch. Different models of wall switches have the same external dimensions, and the main difference lies in the different number of copper parts constituting the static contact assembly 2 inside the switch. For example, Figure 1 As shown, the static contact assembly 2 in the single-open single-control switch includes a static contact 21, a conductive member 22 and a single-control movable contact assembly, and the single-control movable contact assembly can make the conductive member 22 and the static contact 21 conductive or disconnected; Figure 2 As shown, the conductive assembly in the double-open double-control switch includes four stationary contacts 21, two conductive members 22, and two double-control moving contact assemblies, and each conductive member 22 can make two opposite stationary contacts 21 conductive or disconnected through a double-control moving contact assembly. The number of stationary contacts 21, moving contact assemblies 3, and conductive members 22 included in the conductive assembly in the single-open double-control switch and the double-open single-control switch can be selected according to the required functions, and the specific circuit connection relationship of the above four wall switches is the prior art and will not be repeated.
[0098] Since the structures of the static contact assemblies 2 in different types of wall switches are different, part of the production lines need to be redesigned and installed when the production type is changed, which results in high cost investment and affects production efficiency.
[0099] To this end, this embodiment provides a wall switch production line that is compatible with the assembly of four types of wall switches, such as Figure 3 As shown, the wall switch production line includes a conveying unit 100, a base loading unit 200, and a conductive component assembly unit 300. The conveying unit 100 is used to convey the base 1. The base loading unit 200 and the conductive component assembly unit 300 are arranged beside the conveying unit 100. Along the conveying direction of the conveying unit 100, the conductive component assembly unit 300 is located downstream of the base loading unit 200. The base loading unit 200 can transport the bases 1 of wall switches of different models to the conveying unit 100. The conductive component assembly unit 300 includes a static contact component loading mechanism 310 and a moving contact loading mechanism 340. The static contact component The feeding mechanism 310 includes a sleeve mold box 321, a sleeve mold conveyor line 320 and a first assembly component 330. The sleeve mold box 321 is provided with a limiting groove 3211, and the limiting groove 3211 can carry the static contact assembly 2. The sleeve mold conveyor line 320 is used to convey the sleeve mold box 321 to the first assembly component 330. The conveying unit 100 is used to convey the base 1 to the first assembly component 330. The first assembly component 330 is used to grab the static contact assembly 2 in the limiting groove 3211 and assemble the static contact assembly 2 to the base 1. The moving contact upper feeding mechanism 340 is used to assemble the moving contact assembly 3 to the base 1 that has been assembled with the static contact assembly 2.
[0100] Through the coordinated work of the base loading unit 200, the conveying unit 100 and the conductive component assembly unit 300, various types of wall switches can be assembled, the compatibility of the production line is improved, manual operations are greatly reduced, and production efficiency is improved; and, by conveying the static contact assembly 2 that matches the base 1 through the sleeve mold box 321, the integrity of the static contact assembly 2 can be ensured, thereby improving the quality of the assembled product.
[0101] It should be noted that the wall switch production line provided in this embodiment is compatible with the assembly of wall switches of different models, but in actual production, the factory will usually only produce one model of wall switch within a period of time based on order demand and production plan; orders of the same model are centrally scheduled for production. This production method can minimize the number and frequency of switching of the wall switch production line and improve production line efficiency.
[0102] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, in this embodiment, the static contact assembly 2 is circulated through the sleeve mold box 321, and the way in which the sleeve mold box 321 is loaded onto the sleeve mold conveyor line 320 is the same as the way in which the base is loaded onto the conveying unit 100, which will not be described in detail here. It should be noted that the number of static contact assemblies 2 in a single sleeve mold box 321 and the number of static contact assemblies 2 required in a single switch product are in a set relationship, with a total of four combinations; for example, a sleeve mold can accommodate 4 sets of static contact assemblies 2 required for single-open single-control switches, or 4 sets of static contact assemblies 2 required for single-open double-control switches, or 4 sets of static contact assemblies 2 required for double-open single-control switches, or 2 sets of static contact assemblies 2 required for double-open double-control switches. By accommodating multiple sets of static contact assemblies 2 in one sleeve mold box 321, the number of single-time loading can be increased, and the assembly efficiency can be improved.
[0103] Optionally, the stationary contact assembly 2 includes a stationary contact 21 and a conductive member 22. Figure 5 As shown, the limiting groove 3211 in the sleeve mold box includes a first limiting groove 32111 and a second limiting groove 32112. The first limiting groove 32111 can limit the static contact 21, and the second limiting groove 32112 can limit the conductive member 22, which can ensure the integrity of the static contact assembly 2 before being transported to the first assembly assembly 330. Figure 6 and Figure 8As shown, the first assembly component 330 includes a first sleeve mold positioning component 331, a static contact picking robot 332, a second sleeve mold positioning component 333 and a conductive part picking robot 334. The first sleeve mold positioning component 331 is used for the first positioning of the sleeve mold box 321 on the sleeve mold conveyor line 320, and the static contact picking robot 332 can take out the static contact in the sleeve mold box 321 after the first positioning and assemble it to the base 1; along the conveying direction of the sleeve mold conveyor line 320, the second sleeve mold positioning component 333 is arranged downstream of the first sleeve mold positioning component 331, and the second sleeve mold positioning component 333 is used for the second positioning of the sleeve mold box 321 on the sleeve mold conveyor line 320, and the conductive part picking robot 334 can take out the conductive part 22 in the sleeve mold box 321 after the second positioning and assemble it to the base 1. The stationary contact material taking robot 332 and the conductive part material taking robot 334 take out the stationary contact 21 and the conductive part 22 from the mold box 321 respectively, and accurately assemble them onto the base 1, thereby reducing manual operations and improving assembly efficiency and accuracy.

The second supporting plate 2253 rotates around its rotating axis, and the first elastic member 2254 is compressed. When the height of the tray 210 rising is higher than the second supporting plate 2253, the second end of the second supporting plate 2253 pops out under the elastic force of the first elastic member 2254 to support the empty pallet 210. Repeating the above steps for multiple times can stack multiple empty pallets 210 at the tray output station 2221. After stacking to a certain height, the stacked empty pallets 210 are taken away by the AGV trolley. The stacking assembly has a simple structure and high stacking efficiency.
[0124] Since the overall structure of the base 1 has a large front area and a small back area, when the base 1 is placed in the tray 210, the base 1 is turned upside down on the tray 210 to increase the contact area between the base 1 and the tray 210 and ensure the stability of the base 1 in the tray 210.
