Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the fields of touch display, automotive electronics and communication technology, and in particular to an automatic aging device for a vehicle-mounted screen. Background Art

[0002] Aging ovens are crucial for evaluating product durability and reliability. By simulating the environmental conditions and stresses of actual product use, they ensure that products meet quality standards and performance requirements before market release. However, traditional aging equipment has numerous drawbacks. Products must be manually loaded into the oven racks for aging, which results in frequent heating and cooling of the oven, leading to high energy consumption, high labor costs, and low efficiency. Furthermore, the equipment can easily damage the product during operation. With the continuous development of the industry, traditional aging equipment is no longer sufficient, and the development of aging production lines that integrate automated loading and unloading, aging, and cooling has become an inevitable trend. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the present invention provides an automatic aging device for vehicle-mounted screens to effectively save factory labor costs and reduce engineering energy consumption.

[0004] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides the following technical solutions: An automated aging system for in-vehicle screens includes an aging furnace, a material receiving and translating machine, a loading and transferring platform, a ground rail carriage, a jig aging station, an automatic cooling line, an elevator, a wire pulling and translating machine, a material unloading and translating machine, a jig return line, and aging jigs. These are connected in sequence to form an automated production process. The aging jigs circulate between the various stations, supporting the in-vehicle screen products.

[0005] More preferably, the aging furnace consists of a furnace body, a heating system, an air circulation system, and a control system. The heating system is built into the furnace body and can precisely control the temperature inside the furnace. The air circulation system is distributed throughout the furnace body and works in conjunction with the heating system to ensure uniform temperature distribution inside the furnace. The control system is connected to the heating system and the air circulation system, and by coordinating the operation of these components, it ensures that the product completes the aging process in a stable and uniform high-temperature environment.

[0006] Furthermore, the material transfer machine is equipped with an X-axis traverse mechanism, a roller rotation mechanism, a Y-axis traverse mechanism, and a jig conveyor mechanism. The X-axis and Y-axis traverse mechanisms are arranged perpendicular to each other, enabling precise displacement of the jig on a flat surface. The roller rotation mechanism is installed at the bottom of the jig, allowing it to rotate to accommodate various angles of operation. The jig conveyor mechanism docks with the loading turntable station of the aging furnace, ensuring smooth transport of the jig to the next process step. These mechanisms operate in tandem, automating and enabling high-precision positioning of the product's material transfer and wire insertion processes, effectively improving operational efficiency.

[0007] Furthermore, the loading turntable is equipped with three proximity sensors and a turntable conveyor line. These sensors are spaced along the turntable conveyor line. When a jig enters the furnace and passes the first proximity sensor, the turntable conveyor line starts and conveys the jig forward. When the jig passes the second proximity sensor, the conveyor line automatically slows down. Once the jig reaches the third proximity sensor, the conveyor line stops. The precise coordination of the proximity sensors and the turntable conveyor line ensures the orderly transition of jigs to the loading turntable, ensuring reliable preparation for the subsequent precise handling of the ground rail vehicle.

[0008] Further optimization, the ground rail carriage consists of an X-axis transverse movement mechanism, a Y-axis two-way telescopic mechanism and a Z-axis lifting mechanism. Each mechanism is controlled by a servo system to ensure accurate and stable operation. Among them, the X-axis transverse movement mechanism realizes horizontal lateral movement, the Y-axis two-way telescopic mechanism completes the horizontal and longitudinal telescopic adjustment, and the Z-axis lifting mechanism is responsible for vertical height adjustment. The three major mechanisms work together to enable the ground rail carriage to achieve high-precision movement in three-dimensional space. During the operation of the equipment, the ground rail carriage relies on the precise operation of these mechanisms to accurately place the jigs in the transition station of the furnace body into the jig aging bin, and at the same time transfer the jigs that have completed aging to the cooling station in time, so as to achieve high efficiency and accuracy in jig handling and ensure the smooth connection of the aging production process; Preferably, the fixture aging compartment includes a fixture rack and a lighting indenter. The fixture rack is fixedly installed inside the aging furnace body, providing a stable support platform for the fixture; the lighting indenter is located above the fixture rack. When the fixture is placed on the fixture rack, the lighting indenter descends and connects to the fixture, providing power to it and automatically lighting the product, thereby simulating the actual state of the product during aging testing, ensuring that the test results truly reflect the performance and reliability of the product in actual application.

[0009] Further preferably, the automatic cooling line includes a cooling feed station, a cooling station, and a cooling discharge station. The cooling feed station is connected to the discharge position of the ground rail vehicle and is used to receive the aged fixtures. Multiple cooling stations are spaced apart along the automatic cooling line, each equipped with a heat dissipation device to cool the products on the fixtures. The cooling discharge station is connected to the elevator to transport the cooled fixtures to the next process. Through the coordinated operation of each station, the products are cooled in an orderly manner, ensuring that the products can be cooled quickly and evenly after aging, avoiding damage to the products due to sudden temperature changes or uneven cooling.

[0010] Further preferably, the elevator consists of a longitudinal conveyor line, a transverse conveyor line, a lifting mechanism and a jacking mechanism. The longitudinal conveyor line is arranged vertically, and is responsible for conveying the cooled fixture from the automatic cooling line to the inside of the elevator. The lifting mechanism cooperates with the longitudinal conveyor line to accurately adjust the position of the fixture in the vertical direction. The jacking mechanism is arranged at the intersection of the longitudinal conveyor line and the transverse conveyor line, and can smoothly lift the fixture from the longitudinal conveyor line to the transverse conveyor line. The transverse conveyor line is arranged horizontally, and is respectively connected to the wire pulling translation machine and the material unloading translation machine, and can send the fixture to different subsequent processes according to production needs, so as to realize efficient distribution of the fixture. Through the coordinated cooperation of multiple conveyor lines and lifting and jacking mechanisms, the elevator can quickly and accurately complete the vertical and horizontal conveying conversion of the fixture, reduce the waiting time of the fixture during the lifting and distribution process, and improve the overall production capacity of the equipment and the flexibility of the production process.

[0011] It is further preferred that the wire pulling and sliding machine consists of a belt conveyor line, a rotating mechanism, an X-axis conveying mechanism and a manual wire pulling station. The belt conveyor line serves as the main transmission component, receiving the jig from the elevator and sending it into the wire pulling and sliding machine; the X-axis conveying mechanism arranged parallel to it can perform secondary horizontal position fine-tuning of the jig to ensure accurate positioning. The rotating mechanism located above the belt conveyor line can flexibly adjust the angle of the jig, making it convenient for operators to perform wire pulling operations from multiple directions. The manual wire pulling station set at the end of the belt conveyor line reserves sufficient operating space for the operator. The various components work closely together, from transportation, positioning to angle adjustment, to fully guarantee the efficient operation of the jig in the wire pulling process.

[0012] Further preferred, the unloading and translation machine integrates an X-axis conveying mechanism, a Y-axis conveying mechanism, a rotating mechanism, a lifting mechanism, a belt transverse conveying mechanism, and a roller longitudinal conveying mechanism. The belt transverse conveying mechanism is connected to the elevator to receive the cooled jig; the X-axis conveying mechanism and the Y-axis conveying mechanism are arranged vertically, and the two are linked to achieve precise horizontal and vertical displacement of the jig within the plane, transporting the jig to the designated unloading station; the rotating mechanism can flexibly adjust the angle of the jig, facilitating the automated unloading of products by robots at downstream stations from multiple angles; the lifting mechanism located above the roller longitudinal conveying mechanism lifts the empty jig upward and transfers it to the roller longitudinal conveying mechanism after the product is unloaded; the roller longitudinal conveying mechanism is connected to the jig return line and is responsible for transporting the empty jig to the return line path. Each mechanism works closely together to build a complete automated process, efficiently completing the cyclic operation of product unloading and jig return.

[0013] The present invention has the following beneficial effects: Cost Reduction: The equipment automates the entire process, from material receiving, aging, cooling, unloading, and fixture reflow, reducing manual operations and significantly lowering factory labor costs. Furthermore, the aging furnace eliminates the need for frequent heating and cooling, reducing energy consumption and project energy costs. Furthermore, fixture recycling and the versatility of the equipment reduce fixture wear and tear and the cost of purchasing multiple pieces of equipment.

[0014] Improved production efficiency: The automated mechanisms of each workstation work together precisely, such as the material transfer machine for rapid material splicing and wire insertion, the floor rail crane for efficient jig handling, and the elevator for rapid jig distribution. This reduces waiting time and operational errors in each link, significantly improving production efficiency and overall equipment capacity.

[0015] Guaranteeing product quality: The heating system of the aging furnace body works in conjunction with the air duct circulation system to ensure uniform and stable temperature inside the furnace, so that the product is heated uniformly during the aging process, improving the accuracy of the aging test; the automatic cooling line ensures orderly and uniform cooling of the product after aging, avoiding damage to the product due to temperature problems; the precise positioning and operation of the unloading and wire pulling horizontal machines reduce the risk of damage to the product during transportation and handling, effectively ensuring product quality and reliability.

[0016] Enhanced equipment applicability: The aging fixture can adapt to aging tests on vehicle screen products of different sizes and shapes by adjusting or replacing the product positioning blocks, improving the versatility of the equipment, meeting the company's testing needs for diversified products, and reducing the company's equipment investment costs.

[0017] Stable operation: The proximity sensor of the loading turntable cooperates with the conveyor line to achieve orderly transition of processing equipment; each mechanism is controlled by a servo system, such as the ground rail carriage and the return line power mechanism, to ensure precise and stable movement, reduce equipment failures, ensure the stability and reliability of equipment operation, and reduce maintenance costs and downtime.

[0032] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and related knowledge, and described clearly and completely. Obviously, the described applications are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments.

[0033] Reference Figures 1-13 As shown, the automatic aging equipment for vehicle-mounted screens of the present invention primarily comprises an aging furnace body 100, a material receiving and translating machine 200, a loading and transferring platform 300, a ground rail vehicle 400, a fixture aging station 500, an automatic cooling line 600, an elevator 700, a wire pulling and translating machine 800, a material unloading and translating machine 900, a fixture reflow line 1000, and an aging fixture 1100. These components work together to form a complete automated production process, automating the entire process of vehicle-mounted screen production, from receiving, aging, cooling, unloading, and fixture reflow.

[0034] Aging oven body 100: Used for aging products under a set temperature environment, it consists of a furnace body 101, a heating system 102, an air duct circulation system 103, and a control system 104. The furnace body 101 serves as the main body, providing installation space for the various internal systems. The heating system 102, installed within the furnace body 101, can precisely control the temperature within the furnace. The temperature parameters are set by the control system 104, providing a stable high-temperature environment for product aging, ensuring that the product can withstand the test of specific temperature conditions during the aging process and improving product quality stability. The air duct circulation system 103 is distributed within the furnace body 101 and works in conjunction with the heating system 102. Through forced convection, the temperature within the furnace is evenly distributed, avoiding inconsistent aging effects due to local temperature differences. For vehicle screens of different sizes and shapes, the uniform temperature environment ensures that all parts of the screens are effectively aged, improving the accuracy and reliability of the aging test. The control system 104 is connected to the heating system 102 and the air duct circulation system 103 to coordinate the work of each part to achieve precise temperature control and stable maintenance of the furnace environment, ensure the smooth progress of the aging process, and reduce product quality risks caused by temperature fluctuations.

[0035] The material transfer machine 200 is used for automated material transfer and manual wire insertion. During material transfer, the jig is moved to the material transfer station via the X-axis traverse mechanism 202, the roller rotation mechanism 205, and the Y-axis traverse mechanism 206, where it is automatically transferred by the upstream robot. After material transfer is complete, the jig is moved by the aforementioned mechanisms to the manual wire insertion station. After wire insertion is complete, the jig is moved by the X-axis traverse mechanism 202, the roller rotation mechanism 205, and the jig conveyor mechanism 204 to the loading turntable station 300 within the aging furnace. The X-axis traverse mechanism 202 and the Y-axis traverse mechanism 206 are positioned perpendicular to each other, enabling precise lateral and longitudinal movement of the jig on a flat surface. This ensures accurate arrival at the material transfer and wire insertion stations, reduces manual positioning time and errors, and improves efficiency. The roller rotation mechanism 205, mounted below the jig, allows for rotation of the jig, facilitating material transfer and wire insertion at various angles, adapting to the needs of different products and enhancing the versatility of the equipment. The jig conveyor mechanism 204 interfaces with the loading transfer station 300 of the aging furnace 100, smoothly transporting the jig to the next process step and ensuring a consistent production flow. These mechanisms work together to automate and precisely position product splicing and wiring, reducing manual operation time and errors, improving production efficiency, and lowering labor costs.

[0036] Loading transfer table 300: It is used for the transition of the jig into the jig aging position after the jig enters the aging furnace body. When the jig enters the furnace body and passes under the proximity sensor 302, the transfer table conveyor line transports the jig forward; when the jig passes under the proximity sensor 303, the conveyor line slows down; when the conveyor line continues to move under the proximity sensor 304, the conveyor line stops, and the jig enters the transfer waiting position. Proximity sensors 302, 303, and 304 are arranged in sequence along the transfer table conveyor line, and are used to detect the entry of the jig, control the deceleration and stop of the conveyor line, and cooperate with the transfer table conveyor line to achieve an orderly transition of the jig on the transfer table, provide preparations for the accurate transportation of the jig by the rail vehicle, ensure the continuity of the production process, avoid collisions or position deviations of the jig during the transfer process, and improve the stability of the equipment operation.

[0037] The floor rail carriage 400 is used to transfer jigs from the transition station within the furnace into the jig aging bin and to transfer aged jigs into the cooling station. It primarily consists of an X-axis traverse mechanism 401, a Y-axis bidirectional telescopic mechanism 402, and a Z-axis lift mechanism 403, all controlled by a servo system. These mechanisms work together to achieve precise movement in three dimensions. The X-axis traverse mechanism 401 enables the floor rail carriage to move horizontally to different locations within the furnace; the Y-axis bidirectional telescopic mechanism 402 allows for longitudinal expansion and contraction to adjust the distance to the jig; and the Z-axis lift mechanism 403 allows the floor rail carriage to be raised and lowered vertically to facilitate jig pickup and placement. The servo system ensures the precision and stability of each mechanism's movement, enabling efficient and accurate jig handling between stations. This reduces handling time and errors, improves overall equipment efficiency, and reduces the risk of product damage due to handling errors.

[0038] Jig aging position 500: Taking a single position as an example, it is used for lighting and aging products in the aging furnace, and is mainly composed of a jig frame 501 and a lighting pressure head 502. The jig frame 501 is fixedly installed in the aging furnace body 100 and is used to carry the jig; the lighting pressure head 502 is set above the jig frame 501 and corresponds to the power supply interface on the jig. After the jig is placed in the aging position 500 through the ground rail vehicle 400, the lighting pressure head 502 descends and connects to the jig, and the jig is powered to automatically light up the product, so that the product can work normally and be tested during the aging process, ensuring that the aging test can simulate the actual use status of the product, improve the effectiveness of the aging test, and more accurately detect potential problems of the product in actual use.

[0039] Automatic cooling line 600: Used to cool down aged products, it consists of a cooling feed station 601, a cooling station 602, and a cooling discharge station 603. The cooling feed station 601 interfaces with the discharge position of the ground rail carriage 400 to receive the aged jigs. Multiple cooling stations 602 are spaced along the automatic cooling line and equipped with internal heat dissipation devices to cool the products on the jigs. The cooling discharge station 603 interfaces with the elevator 700 to transport the cooled jigs to the next process. Each station is connected sequentially by a conveyor line. The ground rail carriage 500 delivers the aged jigs to the cooling transition station. The conveyor line from the cooling feed station 601 transports the jigs to the cooling stations 602 for arrangement and cooling. After cooling, the jigs are transported to the elevator 700 via the conveyor line from the cooling discharge station 603 for unloading. Reasonable workstation layout and conveyor line setting realize orderly cooling of products, ensuring that products can be cooled quickly and evenly after aging, avoiding damage to products caused by sudden temperature changes or uneven cooling, extending product service life and improving product reliability.

[0040] Elevator 700: Used to transport the cooled jigs to the manual wire pulling station 800 and the blanking and translating machine 900. It consists of a longitudinal conveyor line 701, a transverse conveyor line 702, a lifting mechanism 703, and a jacking mechanism 704. The longitudinal conveyor line 701 is set vertically and is used to transport the cooled jigs from the automatic cooling line 600 to the interior of the elevator; the lifting mechanism 703 cooperates with the longitudinal conveyor line 701 to adjust the vertical position of the jig; the jacking mechanism 704 is set at the intersection of the longitudinal conveyor line 701 and the transverse conveyor line 702, and can lift the jig from the longitudinal conveyor line 701 to the transverse conveyor line 702; the transverse conveyor line 702 is set horizontally and docks with the wire pulling and translating machine 800 and the blanking and translating machine 900 respectively to transport the jigs to different subsequent processes. Multiple conveyor lines, lifting and jacking mechanisms work together to achieve efficient distribution of fixtures, accurately transporting fixtures to corresponding workstations according to production needs, improving the flexibility and efficiency of the production process, reducing the waiting time of fixtures during the lifting and distribution process, and improving the overall production capacity of the equipment.

[0041] Wire pulling and translating machine 800: Used to transport cooled products to the wire pulling station for manual wire pulling, it consists of a belt conveyor line 801, a rotating mechanism 802, an X-axis conveyor mechanism 803, and a manual wire pulling station 804. The belt conveyor line 801, the primary conveying component, transports jigs from the elevator 700 into the wire pulling and translating machine. The X-axis conveyor mechanism 803, located parallel to the belt conveyor line 801, allows for further adjustment of the jig's horizontal position. The rotating mechanism 802, mounted above the belt conveyor line 801, allows the jig to rotate, facilitating wire pulling operations from various angles. The manual wire pulling station 804, located at the end of the belt conveyor line 801, provides operator space. These mechanisms work together to transport and position the jig during the wire pulling process, facilitating manual wire pulling operations, improving efficiency and accuracy, reducing product damage caused by improper wire pulling, and ultimately increasing product yield.

[0042] The unloading and translating machine 900 is used to automatically unload products from jigs and transport empty jigs to the reflow line for reflow. It consists of an X-axis conveyor mechanism 901, a Y-axis conveyor mechanism 902, a rotating mechanism 903, a lifting mechanism 904, a transverse belt conveyor mechanism 905, and a longitudinal roller conveyor mechanism 906. The transverse belt conveyor mechanism 905 interfaces with the elevator 700 to receive jigs. The X-axis conveyor mechanism 901 and the Y-axis conveyor mechanism 902 are arranged perpendicular to each other, enabling precise transverse and longitudinal movement of jigs on a plane for transporting them to the unloading station. The rotating mechanism 903 rotates the jig, facilitating automated unloading of jig products by robots at downstream stations from different angles. The lifting mechanism 904, located above the longitudinal roller conveyor mechanism 906, lifts the empty jig after unloading and transports it to the longitudinal roller conveyor mechanism 906. The longitudinal roller conveyor mechanism 906 interfaces with the jig reflow line 1000 to transport the empty jigs to the reflow line. Multiple mechanisms cooperate to realize the automation of product unloading and fixture return, reduce manual operation links, improve production efficiency and the degree of automation of equipment, reduce labor costs, and at the same time ensure smooth fixture return to avoid fixture backlog affecting the production process.

[0043] Reflow line 1000: Used to return empty jigs to the material transfer machine 200 for jig circulation. It consists of a conveyor roller frame 1001, a conveyor power mechanism 1002, and a jig transition station 1003. The conveyor power mechanism 1002 is controlled by a servo system. The conveyor roller frame 1001 serves as the carrier and conveyor for the empty jigs. The conveyor power mechanism 1002 uses a servo system to precisely control the speed and position of the conveyor roller frame 1001. The jig transition station 1003 is responsible for the transition and positioning of empty jigs during the reflow process, ensuring stable and efficient return of empty jigs to the material transfer machine 200. This enables jig recycling, ensures the continuity of the production process and the efficient operation of the equipment, and reduces jig wear and replacement costs.

[0044] Burn-in fixture 1100: Consists of a fixture base plate 1101, a fixture frame 1102, a product lighting board 1103, a product positioning block 1104, and a power supply board 1105. By adjusting or replacing the product positioning block 1104, it can be used for burn-in of different types of in-vehicle products. The fixture base plate 1101 serves as the basic support component, and the fixture frame 1102 is fixedly mounted on the fixture base plate 1101 to support the product. The product lighting board 1103 and the power supply board 1105 are mounted on the fixture frame 1102 and connected to the product to provide power and lighting functions. The product positioning block 1104 is detachably mounted on the fixture frame 1102. By adjusting or replacing the product positioning block 1104, it can be adapted to in-vehicle products of different sizes and shapes, improving the versatility of the equipment, meeting the burn-in test needs of enterprises for different types of in-vehicle screen products, and reducing the costs associated with purchasing multiple burn-in equipment.

[0045] The present invention constructs a complete automated production line from material receiving, aging, cooling to material unloading and jig return. Each workstation (material receiving and translating machine, aging furnace, ground rail vehicle, cooling line, etc.) forms a closed loop through the flow of jigs, realizing unmanned operation of vehicle-mounted screen aging testing. This integrated architecture significantly reduces manual intervention and solves the problems of low efficiency and high energy consumption caused by manual loading and unloading of traditional aging equipment. By connecting the jig return line (1000) with each workstation, the recycling of jigs in the production line is realized, reducing jig loss and equipment investment costs, while improving production continuity.

[0046] This system utilizes independent servo control for the X, Y, and Z axes, combined with a bidirectional telescopic mechanism, to achieve millimeter-level precision positioning of fixtures in three dimensions (up to ±0.1mm), surpassing traditional single-axis or dual-axis positioning systems. Its dual-station simultaneous operation capability allows for simultaneous handling of both the aging bin and the cooling line, increasing handling efficiency by over 50% compared to traditional equipment.

[0047] Optimized air duct circulation design: Through the special air duct structure (such as spoiler layout and air outlet angle design), the temperature uniformity in the furnace is controlled within ±1°C (better than the industry standard ±3°C), greatly improving the accuracy of aging tests. Coordination of roller rotation and plane displacement: The X / Y axis lateral movement mechanism cooperates with the roller rotation mechanism (205) to achieve multi-angle adjustment of the fixture during the process of splicing and plugging in wires, which can adapt to vehicle screens with different interface directions, and improve compatibility by 80%.

[0048] Example 1, an automatic aging equipment for vehicle-mounted screens, mainly consists of an aging furnace body 100, a material receiving and translating machine 200, a loading transfer table 300, a ground rail vehicle 400, a fixture aging position 500, an automatic cooling line 600, an elevator 700, a wire pulling and translating machine 800, a material unloading and translating machine 900, a fixture reflow line 1000, and an aging fixture 1100. The aging furnace body 100 is used to age the product under a set temperature environment, and is composed of a furnace body 101, a heating system 102, an air duct circulation system 103, a control system 104 and other parts.

[0049] The material receiving and translation machine 200 is used for automatic material receiving of products and manual wire insertion; when receiving materials, the jig moves to the material receiving station through the X-axis transverse movement mechanism 202, the roller rotation mechanism 205, and the Y-axis transverse movement mechanism 206, and the materials are automatically received by the upstream manipulator. After the material receiving is completed, the jig moves to the manual wire insertion station through the X-axis transverse movement mechanism 202, the roller rotation mechanism 205, and the Y-axis transverse movement mechanism 206. After the wire insertion is completed, the jig moves to the loading transfer station 300 inside the aging furnace body through the X-axis transverse movement mechanism 202, the roller rotation mechanism 205, and the jig conveying mechanism 204. The loading transfer table 300 is used for the transition of the jig into the jig aging position after the jig enters the aging furnace body by the ground rail vehicle; when the jig enters the furnace body and passes under the proximity sensor 302, the transfer table conveyor line transports the jig forward. When the jig passes under the proximity sensor 303, the conveyor line slows down and continues to move to under the proximity sensor 304, at which point the conveyor line stops and the jig enters the transfer waiting position.

[0050] The ground rail vehicle 400 is used to place the transition station fixtures in the furnace body into the fixture aging bin and place the aged fixtures into the cooling station. It is mainly composed of an X-axis transverse movement mechanism 401, a Y-axis bidirectional telescopic mechanism 402, and a Z-axis lifting mechanism 403, all of which are controlled by a servo system.

[0051] The fixture aging bin 500 (a single bin is used as an example) is used to illuminate and age products in the aging furnace. It mainly consists of a fixture rack 501 and a lighting pressure head 502. The fixture is placed in the aging bin 500 via a ground rail vehicle 400, and the lighting pressure head supplies power to the fixture to automatically illuminate the product.

[0052] The automatic cooling line 600 is used to cool down the aged products. It consists of a cooling feeding station 601, a cooling station 602, and a cooling discharging station 603. The ground rail vehicle 500 sends the aged fixture to the cooling transition station. The fixture is transported to the cooling station 602 for arrangement and cooling via the conveyor line of the cooling feeding station 601. After the fixture is cooled, it is sent to the elevator 700 for unloading via the conveyor line of the cooling discharging station 603.

[0053] The elevator 700 is used to send the cooled jig to the manual wire pulling station 800 and the blanking translation machine 900. It consists of a longitudinal conveyor line 701, a transverse conveyor line 702, a lifting mechanism 703 and a jacking mechanism 704. After the jig is cooled, it is transported to the inside of the elevator via the longitudinal conveyor line 701, and the jig is placed in the transverse jacking conveyor line 702 through the jacking mechanism 704.
