Description

Technical Field

[0001] This specification relates to the field of automation equipment technology, and in particular to an assembly module. Background Technology

[0002] On automated production lines, when assembling two workpieces, it's typically necessary to first fix one workpiece, then move the other workpiece onto the surface of the fixed workpiece to complete the assembly. If the moved workpiece needs to be installed on the top surface of the fixed workpiece, this is usually relatively simple. However, if the moved workpiece needs to be installed on the side of the fixed workpiece, and the fixed workpiece is thin, this assembly process cannot be achieved with existing equipment. Summary of the Invention

Beneficial effects

[0023] The assembly module provided in this embodiment includes a support mechanism, a gripping mechanism, and a second mounting base. The support mechanism and the gripping mechanism are mounted on the second mounting base. The support mechanism is used to support and fix the first workpiece, and the two gripping mechanisms are used to grip the second workpiece and install it at the corresponding position of the first workpiece, thereby realizing the assembly of the first workpiece and the second workpiece.

[0024] The supporting mechanism includes a first mounting base, a carrier, and a first driving component. The first driving component drives the mounting base to rotate the carrier by 90°, allowing the carrier to switch between a waiting position and a working position. When the carrier is in the waiting position, the first workpiece can be placed on the carrier or removed after assembly. When the carrier is in the working position, the side of the first workpiece on the carrier faces upward, facilitating the assembly of the second workpiece on the side of the first workpiece. The magnetic suction component moves within the channel, allowing it to switch between a suction position and a discharge position. When the carrier is in the working position, the magnetic suction component in the suction position holds the first workpiece in place, preventing it from falling. After the carrier rotates to the waiting position, the magnetic suction component can move to the discharge position, allowing the first workpiece to be removed.

[0025] The gripping mechanism is equipped with grippers and a drive assembly. The two grippers are arranged opposite each other in a second direction and the gripping surface is perpendicular to the second direction. The drive assembly enables the grippers to have at least five degrees of freedom, which can smoothly assemble the second workpiece onto the side of the first workpiece.

[0047] Please see Figures 1 to 12 This application provides an assembly module, including: a support mechanism 1, a gripping mechanism 2, and a second mounting base 4.

[0048] Among them, Figures 3 to 10As shown, the supporting mechanism 1 is used to support the first workpiece. The supporting mechanism 1 includes a first mounting base 11, a carrier 12 fixedly mounted on the first mounting base 11, and a first driving member 15 connected to the first mounting base 11. The carrier 12 is provided with a supporting surface 121 for supporting the first workpiece. Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, the carrier 12 has a channel 122 extending along a first direction X, which is perpendicular to the bearing surface 121. A magnetic suction member 123 is provided within the channel 122. The magnetic suction member 123 is movable within the channel 122 to switch between a suction position close to the bearing surface 121 and a discharge position away from the bearing surface 121. The carrier 12 has a waiting position where the bearing surface 121 is horizontally positioned (e.g.,...). Figure 3 (as shown) and the working position where the bearing surface 121 is vertically set (e.g.) Figure 4 (As shown). When the carrier 12 is in the working position, the magnetic suction element 123 is in the suction position. The first drive element 15 is used to drive the first mounting base 11 to rotate 90° about an axis extending along the second direction Y, so that the carrier 12 switches between the waiting position and the working position. The second direction Y is parallel to the bearing surface 121.

[0049] like Figure 11 and Figure 12 As shown, two gripping mechanisms 2 are located on either side of the supporting mechanism 1 in the second direction Y, and the two gripping mechanisms 2 are symmetrically arranged. Each gripping mechanism 2 includes a gripper 21 extending along the second direction Y, and a drive assembly 20 connected to the gripper 21. The gripper 21 has a gripping surface 218 for gripping a second workpiece, and the gripping surface 218 is perpendicular to the second direction Y. The drive assembly 20 is used to drive the gripper 21 to move along the first direction X, move along the second direction Y, move along the third direction Z, rotate about an axis extending in the first direction X, and rotate about an axis extending in the third direction Z.

[0050] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the first driving component 15 and the driving assembly 20 are fixedly connected to the second mounting base 4. The first direction X, the second direction Y, and the third direction Z are all perpendicular to each other.

[0051] The assembly module provided in this embodiment includes a support mechanism 1, a gripping mechanism 2, and a second mounting base 4. The support mechanism 1 and the gripping mechanism 2 are mounted on the second mounting base 4. The support mechanism 1 is used to support and fix the first workpiece, and the two gripping mechanisms 2 are used to grip the second workpiece and install it at the corresponding position of the first workpiece, thereby realizing the assembly of the first workpiece and the second workpiece.

[0052] The supporting mechanism 1 includes a first mounting base 11, a carrier 12, and a first driving member 15. The first driving member 15 drives the mounting base to rotate the carrier 12 by 90°, allowing the carrier 12 to switch between a waiting position and a working position. When the carrier 12 is in the waiting position, the first workpiece can be placed on the carrier 12 or the assembled first workpiece can be removed. When the carrier 12 is in the working position, the side of the first workpiece on the carrier 12 faces upward, making it easy to assemble the second workpiece on the side of the first workpiece. By moving the magnetic suction member 123 within the channel 122, the magnetic suction member 123 can switch between a suction position and a discharge position. When the carrier 12 is in the working position, the magnetic suction member 123 in the suction position holds the first workpiece, ensuring that the first workpiece does not fall. After the carrier 12 rotates to the waiting position, the magnetic suction member 123 can move to the discharge position, allowing the first workpiece to be removed.

[0053] The gripping mechanism 2 is provided with grippers 21 and drive assembly 20. The two grippers 21 are arranged opposite each other in the second direction Y and the gripping surface 218 is perpendicular to the second direction Y. The drive assembly 20 enables the grippers 21 to have at least five degrees of freedom, so that the second workpiece can be smoothly assembled to the side of the first workpiece.

[0054] In this embodiment, in the first direction X, the size of the magnetic chuck 123 is smaller than the size of the channel 122, so that the magnetic chuck 123 can move within the channel 122 along the first direction X. The diameter of the channel 122 matches the diameter of the magnetic chuck 123, that is, the diameter of the channel 122 is approximately equal to the diameter of the magnetic chuck 123, or the diameter of the channel 122 is slightly larger than the diameter of the magnetic chuck 123, and the periphery of the channel 122 can guide and limit the movement of the magnetic chuck 123.

[0055] Specifically, the magnetic suction member 123 is connected to a second driving member 16, which is used to drive the magnetic suction member 123 to switch between a material suction position and a material release position. The second driving member 16 is preferably a cylinder. In the first direction X, the second driving member 16 is located on the side of the carrier 12 opposite to the second blocking block 14.

[0056] like Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, the output end 161 of the second drive member 16 is eccentrically positioned with respect to the magnetic suction member 123. When the carrier 12 is in the working position, the output end 161 of the second drive member 16 is positioned close to the lower part of the magnetic suction member 123. This is to ensure that the second drive member 16 is arranged as close to the lower part as possible, thereby avoiding interference with the assembly of the second workpiece.

[0057] In this embodiment, the supporting mechanism 1 further includes two first blocking blocks 13 slidably connected to the first mounting base 11 in the second direction Y. The two first blocking blocks 13 are respectively located on both sides of the carrier 12 in the second direction Y. The first mounting base 11 is provided with a first slide rail 17 extending along the second direction Y, and the first blocking blocks 13 are slidably connected to the first slide rail 17. Figure 4 As shown, when the carrier 12 is in the working position, the first blocking block 13 is positioned close to the lower part of the carrier 12 to avoid interference with the assembly of the second workpiece.

[0058] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the supporting mechanism 1 also includes a second blocking block 14 slidably connected to the first mounting base 11, with the second blocking block 14 facing the supporting surface 121. The first mounting base 11 has a second slide rail 18 extending along the first direction X, a connecting block 110 slidably connected to the second slide rail 18, and a third slide rail 19 extending along the third direction Z on the connecting block 110. The second blocking block 14 is slidably connected to the third slide rail 19. The two first blocking blocks 13 can limit the first workpiece on the carrier 12 in the second direction Y, and the second blocking block 14 can limit the first workpiece on the carrier 12 in the first direction X. By setting the magnetic suction element 123, the first blocking block 13, and the second blocking block 14, the first workpiece on the carrier 12 can be stably fixed. Especially when the gripping mechanism 2 assembles the second workpiece to the side of the first workpiece, it can also ensure that the first workpiece remains fixed during the assembly process, thereby improving assembly efficiency and yield.

[0059] Specifically, in the first direction X, the first slide rail 17 and the third slide rail 19 are located on both sides of the vehicle 12. In the second direction Y, the second slide rail 18 and the first drive member 15 are located on both sides of the vehicle 12. Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, this arrangement allows for a uniform spatial distribution of the assembled demagnetizing bearing device, thereby enabling it to operate stably and extending its service life.

[0060] In this embodiment, such as Figure 7 As shown, a blocking strip 124 protrudes from the bearing surface 121 of the carrier 12, and the blocking strip 124 extends along the second direction Y. When the carrier 12 is in the working position, the blocking strip 124 is positioned near the bottom of the carrier 12, which can limit the workpiece on the carrier 12 at the bottom and ensure that the workpiece will not fall downward.

[0061] Specifically, when the carrier 12 is in the working position, the top of the second blocking block 14 is not higher than the top of the bearing surface 121, thereby avoiding interference with the assembly of the workpiece; the bottom of the second blocking block 14 is higher than the top of the blocking strip 124, ensuring that the entire second blocking block 14 can act on the surface of the workpiece, and no extra part will interfere with the blocking strip 124.

[0062] In this embodiment, the drive assembly 20 includes: a first support block 22, a second support block 23, a third support block 24, a fourth support block 25, a fifth support block 26, and a sixth support block 27. The first support block 22 is fixedly connected to the second mounting base 4. The first support block 22 has a fourth slide rail 28 extending along a first direction X. The second support block 23 is slidably connected to the fourth slide rail 28. The second support block 23 has a fifth slide rail 29 extending along a second direction Y. The third support block 24 is slidably connected to the fifth slide rail 29, and the third support block 24 has a sixth slide rail 210 extending along a third direction Z. The fourth support block 25 is slidably connected to the sixth slide rail 210. The fifth support block 26 is rotatably connected to the fourth support block 25. The fifth support block 26 can rotate relative to the fourth support block 25 about an axis extending in the first direction X. The sixth support block 27 is rotatably connected to the fifth support block 26, and the sixth support block 27 can rotate relative to the fifth support block 26 about an axis extending in the third direction Z. The gripper 21 is connected to the sixth support block 27.

[0063] Specifically, such as Figure 11 and Figure 12 As shown, the sixth support block 27 is provided with a seventh slide rail 211 extending along the second direction Y, and the gripper 21 is slidably connected to the seventh slide rail 211. The end of the gripper 21 away from the gripping surface 218 is abutted against the sixth support block 27 by a spring 212. By setting the spring 212 and the seventh slide rail 211, excessive pressure can be avoided on the side of the first workpiece when the gripper 21 grips the second workpiece for installation.

[0064] In this embodiment, the assembly module also includes a pressure block 3. When the carrier 12 is in the working position, the pressure block 3 is located above the carrier 12. After the gripping mechanism 2 installs the second workpiece onto the side of the first workpiece, the pressure block 3 is moved above the side of the first workpiece facing upwards and pressed down, which can fix the second workpiece and the first workpiece together, facilitating the next process. The second mounting base 4 is provided with an eighth slide rail 33 extending along the first direction X. The eighth slide rail 33 is slidably connected to a first slider 31. The first slider 31 is provided with a ninth slide rail 34 extending along the third direction Z. The ninth slide rail 34 is slidably connected to a second slider 32. The pressure block 3 is fixedly connected to the second slider 32, so that the pressure block 3 can move in the first direction X and the third direction Z.

[0065] In this embodiment, the first workpiece must be a workpiece that can be attracted by the magnetic suction element 123. The first workpiece is sheet-shaped with a relatively small side height. When the carrier 12 is in the waiting position, the first workpiece can be placed horizontally on the carrier 12 and limited by the magnetic suction element 123, the first blocking block 13, the second blocking block 14, and the blocking strip 124. When the carrier 12 is in the working position, the side of the first workpiece faces upward, which facilitates the assembly of the second workpiece onto the side of the first workpiece. In this embodiment, the width of the second workpiece can be approximately equal to the side height of the first workpiece. The second workpiece is formed by bending a long strip, and its shape matches the side of the first workpiece.
