[0036] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments so that those skilled in the art can implement the invention with reference to the description.
[0037] It should be understood that terms such as “having”, “including” and “comprising” used herein do not preclude the existence or addition of one or more other elements or combinations thereof.
[0038] Example 1:
[0039] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the present invention provides a welding gun assembly device based on double-layer circulation conveying, comprising:
[0040] An upper conveyor belt 1 and a lower conveyor belt 2 running in opposite directions, wherein the upper conveyor belt 1 is provided with a plurality of assembly stations in sequence along the running direction, and the upper conveyor belt 1 and the lower conveyor belt 2 are used to carry an assembly workbench 3;
[0041] The first elevator 4 and the second elevator 5 arranged on both sides of the assembly station are used to transfer the assembly workbench 3 between the upper conveyor belt 1 and the lower conveyor belt 2; the first elevator 4 and the second elevator 5 are provided with a lifting platform 6, and the lifting platform 6 and the assembly workbench 3 are adapted to be provided with automatic positioning units.
[0042] The assembly stations include a gun head locking station 11, a switch welding station 12, a thermoplastic station 13 and a screw locking station 10 which are arranged in sequence.
[0043] The working principle and beneficial effects of the above technical solution are:
[0044] The present invention provides a welding gun assembly equipment based on double-layer circular conveying. During assembly, the welding gun structural parts to be assembled are placed on the assembly workbench 3, the assembly workbench 3 is placed on the lifting platform 6 of the first elevator 4, the first elevator 4 transfers the assembly workbench 3 to the upper conveyor belt 1, and as the upper conveyor belt 1 moves, the assembly workbench 3 passes through the gun head locking station 11, the switch welding station 12, the thermoplastic station 13 and the screw locking station 10 in sequence to complete the assembly of the welding gun; the assembled welding gun is placed on the assembly workbench 3, the upper conveyor belt 1 transfers the assembly workbench 3 to the lifting platform 6 of the second elevator 5, and the staff can take out the assembled welding gun; the second elevator 5 drives the lifting platform 6 to descend so that it is opposite to the lower conveyor belt 2, transfers the assembly workbench 3 to the lower conveyor belt 2, and finally moves with the lower conveyor belt 2 to transport the assembly workbench 3 back to the first elevator 4 to realize circulation.
[0045] Through the above structural design, a double-layer circular conveying method is adopted, so that the assembly workbench 3 moves along with the upper conveyor belt 1 to assemble the welding gun. After the assembly is completed, the finished product is taken out at the elevator and transferred to the lower conveyor belt 2 under the drive of the elevator. The automatic reflow of the assembly workbench 3 is realized as the lower conveyor belt 2 moves, and no manual handling is required. The upper and lower double-layer design reduces the space occupied by the equipment. The conveyor belt and the elevator are jointly controlled and automatically positioned during the transfer process, thereby improving the positioning accuracy of the assembly workbench 3 during circulation and ensuring the accuracy of the position of the welding gun assembly process.
[0046] Example 2:
[0047] like Figure 2 、 Figure 3 As shown, based on the above embodiment 1, the first elevator 4 includes:
[0048] Transmission screws 14, two transmission screws 14 are symmetrically arranged in the first elevator 4, the top of the transmission screw 14 is connected to the transmission box 15, and the transmission box 15 is installed on the inner wall of the first elevator 4; two screw sleeves 19 are provided at one end of the lifting platform 6, and the two screw sleeves 19 are respectively screwed on the transmission screws 14;
[0049] The transmission shaft 16 has two ends connected to the two transmission boxes 15 at the same time, and a first pulley is installed in the middle of the transmission shaft 16;
[0050] The lifting motor 18 is installed at the bottom end of the first elevator 4. The output shaft of the lifting motor 18 is connected to a second pulley, and the second pulley is connected to the first pulley through a synchronous belt 17.
[0051] The working principle and beneficial effects of the above technical solution are:
[0052] When the first elevator 4 is in use, the lift motor 18 is activated to rotate the second pulley. This second pulley forms a belt drive with the first pulley via a timing belt 17, causing the drive shaft 16 to rotate synchronously. Drive shaft 16, after power conversion via the transmission boxes 15 on both sides, drives the drive screw 14 to rotate, thereby driving the lift platform 6 in the vertical direction. The lift platform 6 is raised and lowered by rotating the lift motor 18 in both directions, moving it between the upper conveyor belt 1 and the lower conveyor belt 2. The second elevator 5 has the same structure as the first elevator 4.
[0053] Example 3:
[0054] like Figure 2 、 Figure 3 As shown, based on the above embodiment 2, the first elevator 4 further includes:
[0055] The transverse conveyor belt 21 is arranged on both sides of the lifting platform 6. The transverse conveyor belt 21 has the same width as the upper conveyor belt 1 and the lower conveyor belt 2.
[0056] The working principle and beneficial effects of the above technical solution are:
[0057] A transverse conveyor belt 21 is installed on the first elevator 4. When the assembly workbench 3 moves to the edge of the upper conveyor belt 1, the first elevator 4 moves the lifting platform 6 to the position of the upper conveyor belt 1, aligning the top of the transverse conveyor belt 21 with the top of the upper conveyor belt 1. The transverse conveyor belt 21 is moved forward to transport the assembly workbench 3 to the upper conveyor belt 1, achieving horizontal loading and transverse movement of the assembly workbench 3. After assembly is completed, the lifting platform 6 of the second elevator 5 is moved to the position of the upper conveyor belt 1, aligning the top of the transverse conveyor belt 21 with the top of the upper conveyor belt 1. The upper conveyor belt 1 is moved to transport the assembly workbench 3 to the transverse conveyor belt 21. The lifting platform 6 is then lowered and transferred to the lower conveyor belt 2.
[0058] By cooperating with the transverse conveyor belt 21 and the conveyor belt, the assembly workbench 3 can be moved transversely between the lifting platform 6 and the conveyor belt, ensuring the normal flow of the assembly workbench 3 and preventing the assembly workbench 3 from piling up at the finished product outlet.
[0059] Example 4:
[0060] like Figure 3 、 Figure 4 As shown, based on the above embodiment 3, the automatic positioning unit includes:
[0061] A positioning column 22 is connected to the bottom end of the assembly workbench 3 and is arranged horizontally;
[0062] The positioning seat 23 is connected to the top of the lifting platform 6 , and the positioning column 22 is inserted into the positioning seat 23 .
[0063] The working principle and beneficial effects of the above technical solution are:
[0064] The lifting platform 6 and the assembly workbench 3 are provided with corresponding automatic positioning units. When the assembly workbench 3 moves to the lifting platform 6, it gradually enters the lifting platform 6 under the drive of the transverse conveyor belt 21, and the positioning column 22 at the bottom of the assembly workbench 3 is gradually inserted into the positioning seat 23. The two are plugged into each other to realize the positioning of the assembly workbench 3 and the lifting platform 6, reduce the shaking of the assembly workbench 3 during the lifting process, and ensure that the position is accurate when cooperating with another layer of conveyor belt after lifting, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the position during the assembly process.
[0065] Example 5:
[0066] like Figure 4-Figure 7 As shown, on the basis of the above-mentioned embodiment 4, the center of the positioning seat 23 is connected to the first arc-shaped positioning member 24 and the second arc-shaped positioning member 25, the two first arc-shaped positioning members 24 are symmetrically arranged at the center of the positioning seat 23, and the two second arc-shaped positioning members 25 are respectively nested inside the two first arc-shaped positioning members 24, a spring 26 is connected between the first arc-shaped positioning member 24 and the second arc-shaped positioning member 25, and the second arc-shaped positioning member 25 is provided with an outward-expanding transition surface 27 on the side close to the assembly workbench 3, and the positioning column 22 is inserted into the second arc-shaped positioning member 25.
[0067] The working principle and beneficial effects of the above technical solution are:
[0068] A first arc-shaped locating member 24 and a second arc-shaped locating member 25 are nested and connected at the center of the locating seat 23 via a spring 26. The locating members are symmetrically arranged at the center of the locating seat 23. When the assembly workbench 3 is moved onto the lifting platform 6 and the locating post 22 is inserted into the locating seat 23, the two second arc-shaped locating members 25 can be clamped on either side of the locating post 22. If the position of the assembly workbench 3 shifts, causing the locating post 22 to deviate from the position of the locating seat 23, the locating post 22 can slide along the transition surface 27 to the center of the two second arc-shaped locating members 25. Simultaneously, under the action of the spring 26, the second arc-shaped locating member 25 can deform slightly to adapt to the position of the locating post 22, facilitating the insertion of the locating post 22 between the two second arc-shaped locating members 25. Through the above-mentioned structural design, two nested arc-shaped positioning members are adopted, and the first arc-shaped positioning member 24 is used to fix the second arc-shaped positioning member 25, thereby limiting the deformation of the second arc-shaped positioning member 25; the second arc-shaped positioning member 25 can adapt to the small swing of the positioning column 22, making the positioning column 22 easier to plug in. After plugging in, under the elastic force of the spring 26, the second arc-shaped positioning member 25 is pushed toward the center, thereby promoting the positioning column 22 to move toward the center of the first arc-shaped positioning member 24, thereby correcting the position of the positioning column 22.
[0069] Example 6:
[0070] like Figure 4-Figure 7 As shown, on the basis of the above-mentioned embodiment 5, a plurality of arc-shaped extension members 28 are provided on the side of the second arc-shaped positioning member 25 away from the assembly workbench 3, and a plug-in sleeve 29 is provided on the arc-shaped extension member 28. The plug-in sleeves 29 on the plurality of arc-shaped extension members 28 are nested and slide relative to each other; a plurality of friction pads 36 are provided on the inner ring of the arc-shaped extension member 28, and the positioning column 22 is in contact with the friction pad 36.
[0071] The working principle and beneficial effects of the above technical solution are:
[0072] Multiple arc-shaped extensions 28 are interlocked. As the distance from the second arc-shaped positioning member 25 increases, the diameter of the insertion sleeve 29 gradually decreases, allowing the insertion sleeves 29 on each arc-shaped extension 28 to be sequentially inserted and prevented from separating. A friction pad 36 is positioned inside each arc-shaped extension 28. When the positioning post 22 is inserted into the center of the second arc-shaped positioning member 25, the post 22 contacts the friction pad 36, driving the arc-shaped extension 28 under friction. As the insertion depth of the positioning post 22 increases, the multiple arc-shaped extensions 28 are fully extended. Connected by the insertion sleeve 29, the arc-shaped extensions 28 remain coaxially extended.
[0073] Through the above-described structural design, the friction pads 36 of the arc-shaped extension member 28 at each position fully contact the positioning column 22. During the insertion process of the positioning column 22, the inertial force of the positioning column 22 when it stops is converted into a driving force for the arc-shaped extension member 28. The friction pads 36 dampen the positioning column 22, reducing the impact on the assembly workbench 3 when it is moved into position, and achieving a stable stop. When the arc-shaped extension member 28 is deployed, the position of the positioning column 22 is corrected and positioned multiple times. The positioning column 22 is located at the center of the arc-shaped extension member 28 and the second arc-shaped positioning member 25. When the second arc-shaped positioning member 25 returns to the center of the first arc-shaped positioning member 24, it drives the positioning column 22 as a whole to the center of the positioning seat 23, reducing local deformation of the positioning column 22 at the second arc-shaped positioning member 25 and improving positioning accuracy.
[0074] Example 7:
[0075] like Figure 4-Figure 7 As shown, on the basis of the above-mentioned embodiment 6, a magnetic positioning member 31 is further provided at the center of the positioning seat 23. The magnetic positioning member 31 is configured to be arc-shaped and symmetrically arranged in the positioning seat 23. The magnetic positioning member 31 is located on the outside of the arc-shaped extension member 28. The inner wall of the magnetic positioning member 31 is evenly provided with a first magnetic block 32. The outer wall of the arc-shaped extension member 28 is evenly provided with a second magnetic block 33. The first magnetic block 32 and the second magnetic block 33 correspond in position and have a repulsive force.
[0076] The working principle and beneficial effects of the above technical solution are:
[0077] A magnetic locator 31 is positioned at the center of the positioning seat 23. During the insertion of the positioning post 22, the multiple curved extensions 28 are driven to unfold and pass through the center of the magnetic locator 31. This repulsive force between the magnetic locator 31 and the curved extensions 28 reduces the movement speed of the positioning post 22, providing a shock-absorbing and buffering effect. Furthermore, the magnetic force on the magnetic locator 31 is uniform in all directions, exerting equal force on all parts of the curved extensions 28. As the curved extensions 28 pass through the magnetic locator 31, the curved extensions 29 are pushed toward the center of the magnetic locator 31, positioning each curved extension 29 and the positioning post 22 at the center of the positioning seat 23, achieving deviation correction for each position of the positioning post 22. Continuous magnetic correction can improve the automatic positioning of the positioning post 22 and prevent further deviation after correction. The combined positioning method of magnetic positioning and friction pad 36 can minimize collision and wear on the positioning post 22 during the positioning process, extending the service life of the positioning components.
[0078] Example 8:
[0079] like Figure 4-Figure 7 As shown, based on the above embodiment 7, a distance sensor is provided on the magnetic positioning member 31 , and a plurality of sensing points are provided on the arc-shaped extension member 28 . The distance sensor is used to detect the distance from the arc-shaped extension member 28 .
[0080] The working principle and beneficial effects of the above technical solution are:
[0081] A distance sensor is mounted on the magnetic positioning member 31. When the curved extension member 28 passes the magnetic positioning member 31, the distance sensor identifies the sensing point, measures the distance to the curved extension member 28 at that point, and transmits the distance detection data to the controller. When the difference between the two distance detection results is within a preset range, the positioning column 22 is effectively positioned and accurately positioned. When the difference between the two distance detection results exceeds the preset range, the positioning column 22 is deviating and requires further adjustment. This effectively enables real-time monitoring of the positioning process, ensuring effective positioning.
[0082] Example 9:
[0083] like Figure 7 As shown, on the basis of the above-mentioned embodiment 8, a plurality of friction frames are provided on the inner wall of the arc-shaped extension member 28, and the friction frames include a bent frame 34, a ball seat 35 and a friction pad 36. One end of the bent frame 34 is connected to the inner wall of the arc-shaped extension member 28, and the other end is bent toward the side away from the assembly workbench 3; the ball seat 35 is connected to the bent frame 34, and a cavity is provided in the ball seat 35; the friction pad 36 is provided as an airbag pad, and the air inlet end of the friction pad 36 is connected to the cavity of the ball seat 35; an air pump 37 is installed on the positioning seat 23, and the air pump 37 is connected to the air inlet end of the cavity of the ball seat 35 through an air pipe 38.
[0084] The working principle and beneficial effects of the above technical solution are:
[0085] An arc-shaped bend 34 is provided on the arc-shaped extension member 28. The bend 34 curves in the same direction as the positioning post 22 and forms an inwardly directed contraction to improve contact between the friction pad 36 and the positioning post 22. During the positioning process, an air pump 37 is activated to deliver gas into the ball seat 35 through the air pipe 38, causing the friction pad 36 to expand and contact the positioning post 22, generating sufficient friction to ensure that the positioning post 22 drives the arc-shaped extension member 28. The friction force can be adjusted by adjusting the gas supply from the air pump 37. When the assembly workbench 3 is removed from the lifting platform 6, pressure on the friction pad 36 is maintained to allow the positioning post 22 to move and reset the arc-shaped extension member 28, ensuring accurate positioning during removal. Once the arc-shaped extension member 28 is reset, the pressure in the ball seat 35 is relieved, causing the friction pad 36 to contract and separate from the positioning post 22, allowing the positioning post 22 to move freely.
[0086] Through the above-mentioned structural design, the air pressure of the friction pad 36 can be effectively adjusted, and the friction connection between the friction pad 36 and the positioning column 22 can be achieved during the positioning process, thereby ensuring the synchronous expansion and contraction of the arc-shaped extension member 28 and improving the stability of the assembly workbench 3 during the process of moving in and out of the upgrade platform 6.
[0087] When the distance sensor detects the positioning position deviation of the positioning column 22, the pressure in the cavity of the ball seat 35 on both sides can be adjusted to make the pressure of the friction pads 36 on both sides unequal, and the relative position of the positioning column 22 in the arc-shaped extension member 28 can be adjusted to achieve secondary positioning adjustment of the positioning column 22 and improve the positioning effect.
