Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] In the air conditioner outdoor unit production system, daily production plans are usually formulated according to production orders and production is arranged. From the macro planning point of view, the single-day production rhythm should be relatively balanced in theory to realize resource optimization and stable production capacity. However, in the actual production process, due to the combined influence of multiple uncertain factors such as sudden equipment failure, adjustment time required for production line due to product model switching, and temporary production interruption, the actual production rhythm presents significant volatility, which is difficult to maintain constant.

[0003] When the assembled air conditioner outdoor units completed by the assembly workshop need to be transported to the logistics storage area for stacking and material collection through the lifting mechanism, since the processing capacity or response speed of the logistics storage stacking and material collection link cannot match the instantaneous increase of the assembly output, the completed outdoor units are stacked at the exit of the assembly workshop. This bottleneck forces the continuous production process of the assembly workshop to be interrupted or delayed, which not only directly affects the production efficiency of the assembled outdoor units, but also causes the idle of production resources and the extension of production cycle, resulting in significant waste of production efficiency and becoming a key bottleneck problem restricting the overall production capacity improvement.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0019] It should be noted that the embodiments in the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict. The preferred embodiments of the present application will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

[0020] Reference Figures 1 to 15As shown, it shows an embodiment of the split line body 1 and the air conditioner outdoor unit production line of the present application. The split line body 1 includes a conveying line 11, a first side pushing mechanism 12 and at least one second side pushing mechanism 13. The conveying line 11 is reciprocatingly and bendingly located on one side of the main flow line body 2. The leading end and the trailing end of the conveying line 11 are connected with the two sides of the main flow line body 2 respectively, and the leading end of the conveying line 11 is located on the upper side of the trailing end of the conveying line 11. The first side pushing mechanism 12 is located opposite to one side of the leading end of the conveying line 11. The first side pushing mechanism 12 is connected with the main flow line body 2, and is used for pushing the products located on the main flow line body 2 to the leading end of the conveying line 11. The second side pushing mechanism 13 is connected with the conveying line 11 and is located at the bending position of the conveying line 11, and is used for pushing the products located on one side of the bending position of the conveying line 11 to the other side.

[0021] Specifically, in the conventional production line, the products to be offline are conveyed from the elevator 3 to the main flow line body 2, and then are directly connected to the logistics warehouse and are stacked offline. However, this mode is greatly affected by the production rhythm fluctuation, causing the stacking rhythm fluctuation, thereby affecting the conveying efficiency of the elevator 3, and inversely affecting the rhythm of the general assembly production line body, and indirectly causing the efficiency loss.

[0022] The embodiment adds the split line body 1 to preferentially split and buffer the products to be offline conveyed by the elevator 3, so as to reduce the influence of the production rhythm fluctuation on the main flow line body 2, guarantee the production efficiency, and when the production equipment fails, there is sufficient buffer amount, and when the rear-end stacking offline robot abnormally, the split line body 1 can buffer a large amount of products produced at the front end to provide equipment repair time.

[0023] The split line body 1 includes a conveying line 11, a first side pushing mechanism 12 and at least one second side pushing mechanism 13. The conveying line 11 is used for conveying products, that is, the products are split from the main flow line body 2 to the conveying line 11. The conveying line 11 transports the products to move along the conveying line 11, and finally returns to the main flow line body 2. The conveying line 11 in the embodiment is a roller line.

[0024] The conveying line 11 is located on one side of the main flow line body 2, and is reciprocatingly and bendingly extended from the upper end to the lower end of the main flow line body 2. The upper end refers to the end of the main flow line body 2 close to the feeding of the elevator 3, and the lower end refers to the end of the main flow line body 2 close to the discharging. Therefore, the conveying line 11 transports the products from the upper end of the main flow line body 2 to the lower end of the main flow line body 2, avoiding that all products need to be conveyed through the main flow line body 2, and improving the conveying efficiency.

[0025] The first end and the tail end of the conveying line 11 are respectively connected with two sides of the main flow line body 2, and the first end of the conveying line 11 is located on the upper side of the tail end of the conveying line 11, that is, the first end of the conveying line 11 is connected with the upper end of the main flow line body 2, and the tail end of the conveying line 11 is connected with the lower end of the main flow line body 2, so that the product discharged from the lifting machine 3 to the main flow line body 2 can enter the conveying line 11 from the first end of the conveying line 11 and be transported along the extension direction of the conveying line 11 to the tail end of the conveying line 11, enter the lower end of the main flow line body 2 from the tail end of the conveying line 11, and finally be transported along the main flow line body 2 to the stacking position for discharge.

[0026] The first side pushing mechanism 12 is used for side pushing the product located in the main flow line body 2 to the first end of the conveying line 11, the first side pushing mechanism 12 is connected with the main flow line body 2, and the first side pushing mechanism 12 is located on one side of the first end of the conveying line 11 and is arranged opposite to the first end of the conveying line 11, so that the first side pushing mechanism 12 can move towards or away from the first end of the conveying line 11, when the first side pushing mechanism 12 moves towards the first end of the conveying line 11, the product located in the main flow line body 2 can be pushed to the first end of the conveying line 11, so that the product enters the split transportation mode, the buffering capacity of the warehouse is increased, and the main flow line body 2 is affected by the production rhythm fluctuation. When the first side pushing mechanism 12 moves away from the first end of the conveying line 11, the product located in the main flow line body 2 can be avoided, so that the product moves along the transportation direction of the main flow line body 2.

[0027] The second side pushing mechanism 13 is used for pushing the product located on one side of the bending position of the conveying line 11 to the other side of the bending position, that is, the second side pushing mechanism 13 is used for realizing the function of changing direction and transferring the product on the conveying line 11. The second side pushing mechanism 13 is arranged at the bending position of the conveying line 11 and is connected with the conveying line 11, so the number of the bending positions of the conveying line 11 is consistent with the number of the second side pushing mechanism 13, and in the embodiment, at least one second side pushing mechanism 13 is arranged on the conveying line 11.

[0028] When the production equipment starts, the product is conveyed from the elevator 3 or the previous installed production line to the main line 2. The main line 2 conveys the product to the unloading point along its transport direction. If the user switches to the diversion mode, the diversion line 1 is activated. When the photoelectric recognition sensor located near the first side push mechanism 12 detects that the product is on one side of the first side push mechanism 12, the first side push mechanism 12 is activated, pushing the product from the main line 2 to the beginning of the conveyor line 11. At this time, the product is transported by the conveyor line 11. The product moves along the transport direction of the conveyor line 11 until the product is transported to the unloading point. When the product is fed to the bend of the conveyor line 11, the photoelectric recognition sensor located near the second side push mechanism 13 detects that the product is on one side of the second side push mechanism 13. Then, the second side push mechanism 13 is activated, and the second side push mechanism 13 pushes the product from one side of the bend to the other side of the bend. That is, the product is transferred from one section of the conveyor line 11 to another section of the conveyor line 11. This allows the product to be transported along the extension direction of the conveyor line 11 to the end of the conveyor line 11, until the product is transported back from the end of the conveyor line 11 to the main line 2, and finally unloaded from the main line 2.

[0029] If there is no need to enter the shunt mode, the user can switch to DC mode. At this time, the photoelectric recognition sensor is turned off, the shunt line 1 is stationary, and the product is directly transported from the upper end of the main line 2 to the unloading point.

[0030] Therefore, this embodiment adds a diversion line 1 to one side of the main line 2. Products are transported via the conveyor line 11. The first side-pushing mechanism 12 pushes the products from the main line 2 onto the conveyor line 11, and the second side-pushing mechanism 13 turns the products so that they can be transported at the bends of the conveyor line 11 until they are re-transported to the main line 2 for unloading, or temporarily stored on the diversion line 1. This solves the problem that existing production rhythm fluctuations may temporarily exceed the carrying capacity of the logistics warehousing and palletizing line, resulting in negative feedback and low production efficiency in the upstream assembly workshop. It prioritizes the diversion and buffering of products to be unloaded by the elevator 3, thereby reducing the impact of production rhythm fluctuations on the main line 2, ensuring production efficiency, and providing sufficient buffer capacity when production equipment malfunctions. When the back-end palletizing robot malfunctions, the diversion line 1 can buffer a large number of finished products produced at the front end to provide time for equipment repair.

[0031] Meanwhile, when encountering small batches of products during the production process, these small batches can be transported into the distribution line 1, buffered, and then the DC mode can be turned on to continue the subsequent production tasks. This avoids congestion caused by small batches of products coming off the line, thus avoiding waste of production efficiency and achieving the goal of flexible production.

[0032] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figures 6 to 7 As shown, the first side-push mechanism 12 includes a first base 121, a first cylinder assembly 122, and a first side-push member 123. The top end of the first base 121 is fixedly connected to the main flow line 2. The first cylinder assembly 122 is movably connected to the first base 121, and the first side-push member 123 is fixedly connected to the first cylinder assembly 122. Specifically, the first side-push mechanism 12 includes a first base 121, a first cylinder assembly 122, and a first side-push member 123. The first base 121 is used to support other structural components to ensure the stable movement of the first cylinder assembly 122 and the first side-push member 123. The first base 121 is installed below the main flow line 2, thereby reducing the space occupied. The top end of the first base 121 is fixedly connected to the main flow line 2, thereby improving the stability of the first base 121. Furthermore, a first fixing part is provided at the bottom of the first base 121 to fix the first fixing part to the ground, thereby further improving the stability of the first base 121 and thus improving the stability of the first side-push mechanism 12 during operation.

[0033] The first cylinder assembly 122 is used to drive the first side pusher 123 to move. The first cylinder assembly 122 is mounted on the first base 121 and is movably connected to the first base 121. The first cylinder assembly 122 is located at the top of the first base 121 and below the main flow line 2, so that the first cylinder assembly 122 can move between the first base 121 and the main flow line 2. The direction of movement of the first cylinder assembly 122 is a telescopic movement from one side of the main flow line 2 relative to the branch line 1 toward the conveyor line 11, that is, the first cylinder assembly 122 moves toward or away from the conveyor line 11.

[0034] The first side pusher 123 is used to push the product onto the conveyor line 11. The first side pusher 123 is fixed to the first cylinder assembly 122 to move with the first cylinder assembly 122. One end of the first side pusher 123 is located below the main conveyor line 2 and is fixedly connected to the first cylinder assembly 122. The other end of the first side pusher 123 is located above the main conveyor line 2, thereby realizing the function of pushing the product. The other end of the first side pusher 123 passes through the clearance opening of the main conveyor line 2 and is located above the main conveyor line 2. The first side pusher 123 extends along the length direction of the main conveyor line 2.

[0035] In the initial state, the first side pusher 123 is located on the side of the main line 2 away from the conveyor line 11, thereby avoiding the movement of products along the main line 2. When the first cylinder assembly 122 is activated, the first cylinder assembly 122 drives the first side pusher 123 to move towards the conveyor line 11, thereby realizing the function of pushing products. After pushing one product, the first cylinder assembly 122 drives the first side pusher 123 to move away from the conveyor line 11 to avoid the next product and perform the pushing action again.

[0036] The first side-pushing mechanism 12 has a simple structure and is easy to install. It does not interfere with the transportation work of the main production line 2, thus ensuring production efficiency.

[0037] In a specific embodiment, refer to Figures 8 to 9 As shown, the second side-pushing mechanism 13 includes a second base 131, a second cylinder assembly 132, and a second side-pushing member 133. The second base 131 is fixedly connected to the bend of the conveyor line 11, the second cylinder assembly 132 is movably connected to the second base 131, and the second side-pushing member 133 is connected to the second cylinder assembly 132. Specifically, the second side-pushing mechanism 13 is used to push the product located on one side of the bend of the conveyor line 11 to the other side of the bend, that is, the second side-pushing mechanism 13 is used to realize the function of changing the direction of the product on the conveyor line 11. The second side-push mechanism 13 includes a second base 131, a second cylinder assembly 132, and a second side-push member 133. The second base 131 is used to support other structural components to ensure the stable movement of the second cylinder assembly 132 and the second side-push member 133. The second base 131 is fixed at the bend of the conveyor line 11 and is located outside the bend, thereby preventing the second side-push mechanism 13 from interfering with the movement of the conveyor line 11. The bottom of the second base 131 is also provided with a second fixing part to fix the second fixing part to the ground, thereby further improving the stability of the second base 131 and thus improving the stability of the second side-push mechanism 13 during operation.

[0038] The second cylinder assembly 132 is used to drive the second side pusher 133 to move. The second cylinder assembly 132 is mounted on the second base 131 and is movably connected to the second base 131. The second cylinder assembly 132 extends along the length direction of the bend so that the second cylinder assembly 132 can move from one side of the bend to the other side along the length of the bend.

[0039] The second side pusher 133 is used to push the product from one side of the bend to the other side, that is, to push the product from one section of the conveyor line 11 to another section of the conveyor line 11; the second side pusher 133 is fixed on the second cylinder assembly 132 and is located above the conveyor line 11; the second side pusher 133 moves between the two sides of the bend and extends along the width direction of the bend.

[0040] In the initial state, the second side pusher 133 is located on the side of the bend near the beginning of the conveyor line 11, that is, on one side of a section of the conveyor line 11 upstream, thereby avoiding the movement of products along the conveyor line 11. When the second cylinder assembly 132 is activated, the second cylinder assembly 132 drives the second side pusher 133 to move towards the side of the bend away from the beginning of the conveyor line 11, that is, the second side pusher 133 moves from one side of the bend to the other side, thereby pushing the product located on one section of the line to another section of the line, realizing the product turning function. After pushing one product, the second cylinder assembly 132 drives the second side pusher 133 to return to the initial position to avoid the next product, and then pushes again.

[0041] The second side-pushing mechanism 13 has a simple structure and is easy to install. It does not interfere with the transportation work of the conveyor line 11 and ensures production efficiency.

[0042] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figures 1 to 5As shown, the distribution line 1 also includes a lifting and translating mechanism 14. The lifting and translating mechanism 14 is located below the main line 2 and is positioned corresponding to the tail end of the conveyor line 11. It is used to move products located at the tail end of the conveyor line 11 onto the main line 2. Specifically, because the tail end of the conveyor line 11 is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the main line 2, there is a product conveying breakpoint. A mechanism is needed to smoothly connect the products on the distribution line 1 to the main line 2 and change the conveying direction of the products. Therefore, the distribution line 1 also includes a lifting and translating mechanism 14. The lifting and translating mechanism 14 has both lifting and moving functions. That is, the lifting and translating mechanism 14 can be raised to connect with the tail end of the conveyor line 11, and can also convey products along the conveying direction of the conveyor line 11 to the main line 2, thereby completing the connection task between the conveyor line 11 and the main line 2 and ensuring that products can smoothly transition from the conveyor line 11 to the main line 2.

[0043] The lifting and translating mechanism 14 is located below the main line 2 and is fixed to the ground, thereby reducing the space occupied. The lifting and translating mechanism 14 is located at the junction of the tail end of the conveyor line 11 and the main line 2, that is, the lifting and translating mechanism 14 is set corresponding to the tail end of the conveyor line 11.

[0044] When the lifting and translating mechanism 14 is not working, it is lower than the main conveyor line 2 to avoid interfering with the transport of the main conveyor line 2. When the lifting and translating mechanism 14 is activated, it is raised above the main conveyor line 2 and level with the end of the conveyor line 11. The conveyor line 11 transports the product to the lifting and translating mechanism 14. At this time, the lifting and translating mechanism 14 moves along the transport direction of the conveyor line 11 to transport the product to the main conveyor line 2, so that the product flows back into the main conveyor line 2, and the direction of movement of the product changes from the direction of movement perpendicular to the main conveyor line 2 to the direction of movement consistent with the direction of movement of the main conveyor line 2.

[0045] In this embodiment, by adding the lifting and translating mechanism 14 at the connection between the tail end of the conveyor line 11 and the main line 2, a smooth transition of the product from the branch line 1 to the main line 2 is achieved, thereby improving the stability of the production line operation.

[0046] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figures 10 to 12As shown, the lifting and translating mechanism 14 includes a third base 141, a lifting assembly 142, a support member 143, a rotating assembly 144, and a moving member 145. The third base 141 is fixed to the ground and located below the main line 2. The lifting assembly 142 is mounted on the third base 141. The support member 143 is fixed on the lifting assembly 142. The rotating assembly 144 is disposed on the support member 143. The moving member 145 is disposed along the length direction of the support member 143 and is connected to the rotating assembly 144. The lifting assembly 142 is activated to drive the support member 143 to perform lifting and lowering movements. The rotating assembly 144 is activated to drive the moving member 145 to move along the length direction of the support member 143. Specifically, the lifting and translating mechanism 14 includes a third base 141, a lifting assembly 142, a support member 143, a rotating assembly 144, and a moving member 145. The third base 141 supports other structural components to ensure their stable operation. The third base 141 is fixedly connected to the ground and is located below the main conveyor line 2. The lifting assembly 142 drives the support member 143 to move up and down, so that the support member 143 can be raised from below the main conveyor line 2 to above it, thereby aligning it with the conveyor line 11 and ensuring that the product can be stably conveyed onto the support member 143. The support member 143 supports the product. 3. Fixed on the lifting assembly 142; the rotating assembly 144 has a rotation function and drives the moving part 145 to move. The rotating assembly 144 is disposed on the support member 143 and is rotatably connected to the support member 143. The rotating assembly 144 is located at both ends of the support member 143. Further, in this embodiment, the rotating assembly 144 is a double-row sprocket. The two ends of the moving part 145 are connected to the rotating assembly 144 and are arranged along the length direction of the support member 143 so that the rotating assembly 144 rotates and drives the moving part 145 to move along the length direction of the support member 143. Further, in this embodiment, the moving part 145 is a double-row roller chain.

[0047] When the lifting assembly 142 is activated to move upward, it lifts the support member 143 upward so that the support member 143 is flush with the conveyor line 11, ensuring that the product is conveyed from the end of the conveyor line 11 to the support member 143. At the same time, the rotating assembly 144 is activated to drive the moving member 145 to move in the same direction as the conveyor line 11, thereby ensuring that the product is stably conveyed to the support member 143. Then, the rotation of the rotating assembly 144 is stopped, and the lifting assembly 142 is controlled to descend so that the support member 143 is located below the main line 2, thereby ensuring that the product is stably placed on the main line 2 and transported by the main line 2.

[0048] Therefore, in this embodiment, the lifting function of the lifting and translating mechanism 14 is realized by the lifting component 142, and the moving function of the lifting and translating mechanism 14 is realized by the cooperation of the rotating component 144 and the moving component 145. The structure is simple and easy to install.

[0049] Meanwhile, the design of the lifting and translation mechanism 14 takes into account the use of various product sizes and appearance models, adopts a standard design, adapts to the original line size, and enables multiple products to be effectively mounted.

[0050] Furthermore, the lifting and translating mechanism 14 also includes a motor 146, which is connected to the lifting assembly 142 and the rotating assembly 144 and is used to drive the lifting assembly 142 and the rotating assembly 144.

[0051] In a specific embodiment, the distribution line 1 further includes a blocking component 15 (not shown in the figure). The blocking component 15 is installed at the bottom end of the conveyor line 11 and can move up and down relative to the conveyor line 11. When the blocking component 15 rises to the top of the conveyor line 11, it is used to block product movement. Specifically, the distribution line 1 further includes a blocking component 15, which is installed at the bottom end of the conveyor line 11 to reduce the space occupied. The blocking component 15 can move up and down relative to the conveyor line 11. When the blocking component 15 is controlled to move upward, it can extend from the clearance opening of the conveyor line 11 to the top of the conveyor line 11 to block product movement. When the blocking component 15 is controlled to move downward, it descends to the bottom of the conveyor line 11 to avoid product movement.

[0052] Therefore, in this embodiment, by adding the blocking component 15 to the conveyor line 11, the blocking component 15 is controlled to block the movement of the product, thereby preventing the product from piling up and blocking it, and has the function of buffering and positioning.

[0053] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figures 13 to 15 As shown, the blocking assembly 15 includes a bracket 151, a third cylinder assembly 152, and a blocking member 153. The bracket 151 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the conveyor line 11, the third cylinder assembly 152 is movably connected to the bracket 151, and the blocking member 153 is rotatably connected to the third cylinder assembly 152. Specifically, the blocking assembly 15 includes a bracket 151, a third cylinder assembly 152, and a blocking member 153. The bracket 151 is used to fix the conveyor line 11 and other structural components of the blocking assembly 15, and is fixed to the bottom end of the conveyor line 11. The third cylinder assembly 152 is used to control the blocking member 153 to move up and down. The third cylinder assembly 152 is movably connected to the bracket 151 and rotatably connected to the blocking member 153. When the third cylinder assembly 152 is activated, it moves to drive the blocking member 153 to rotate, thereby allowing the blocking member 153 to move up and down relative to the conveyor line 11. This allows the blocking member 153 to block the product. The blocking assembly 15 has a simple structure.

[0054] Furthermore, the third cylinder assembly 152 is connected to the blocking member 153 via a rotating shaft. When the third cylinder assembly 152 moves, it can drive the rotating shaft to rotate, thereby driving the blocking member 153 to rotate.

[0055] More specifically, the blocking component 15 is a hook-type blocking member 153.

[0056] In a specific embodiment, refer to Figure 1 As shown, the distribution line 1 also includes a fixed blocking rod 16, which is fixedly disposed at the end of the bend in the conveyor line 11. Specifically, the distribution line 1 further includes a fixed blocking rod 16, which is used to limit the product and prevent it from falling off the end of the bend in the conveyor line 11. Therefore, the fixed blocking rod 16 is installed at the bend in the conveyor line 11 and is located at the end of the bend, with the end referring to the outer side of the conveyor line 11, thereby improving the stability of the conveyor line 11 during operation.

[0057] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figure 1As shown, the distribution line 1 also includes multiple motors 17 and multiple frequency converters. The multiple motors 17 are respectively spaced out in various areas of the conveyor line 11 to control the line speed of each area. The frequency converters are connected to the motors 17 to control the rotational speed of the motors 17. Specifically, the distribution line 1 also includes multiple motors 17 and multiple frequency converters. The multiple motors 17 are respectively spaced out in various areas of the conveyor line 11, so that the multiple motors 17 control the line speed of each area. Therefore, the line speed of each area of ​​the conveyor line 11 can be adjusted separately to achieve the separation and diversion of materials in different areas, avoid material accumulation, and allow materials from the previous process to enter the subsequent different processing stages in an orderly manner; adapt to the rhythm differences of different processes, and improve the overall operating efficiency and flexibility of the production line.

[0058] Meanwhile, based on the multiple motors 17, each motor 17 is connected to a frequency converter. The frequency converter is used to control the speed of the motor 17. By controlling the frequency converter, the speed of the motor 17 is controlled, thereby controlling the line speed of each area. This gives the conveyor line 11 the characteristic of differential speed distribution, so that the products are distributed as evenly and densely as possible on the conveyor line 11. This increases the buffer capacity of the conveyor line 11, enabling timely response to fluctuations in front-end production efficiency and rapid throughput. By controlling the torque transmitted by the motors 17 through the frequency converter, the conveyor line 11 can operate at segmented speeds, controlled as a differential speed line, so that products do not get blocked or have empty spaces, thus improving conveying efficiency.

[0059] Reference Figures 1 to 5 As shown, this embodiment also provides an air conditioner outdoor unit production line, which includes a main line 2 and a branch line 1. The branch line 1 is installed on one side of the main line 2. The branch line 1 can be any type of branch line 1 provided by this invention. Since the specific structure and working principle of the branch line 1 have been described in detail in the previous specification, they will not be repeated here for the sake of brevity.

[0060] The air conditioner outdoor unit production line in this embodiment utilizes the branch line 1 provided by this invention. This branch line 1 solves the problem of existing production lines experiencing short-term fluctuations in production pace exceeding the capacity of the logistics and warehousing palletizing lines, leading to negative feedback and low production efficiency in the upstream assembly workshop. This results in high production efficiency for the air conditioner outdoor unit production line, enabling it to respond promptly to various unforeseen circumstances and improving its practicality. Furthermore, during the air conditioner outdoor unit production process, due to varying daily production schedules, different models can be produced using either the main line or the branch line. With the help of a control program, the line can be switched with a single click, achieving energy saving and cost reduction.

[0061] Furthermore, the length of the conveyor line 11 is 42m; the length of a single section of the conveyor line 11 is about 10.5m, and there are a total of 4 sections; the total width of the 4 sections is about 5m; and the interval between each section is about 38cm; the distance between the side section and the other main conveyor line 2 is about 60cm.

[0062] Furthermore, the conveyor line 11 adopts an outer width of 1000mm and an inner width of 930mm. The conveyor line 11 can produce air conditioner outdoor units with a corresponding packaging box size of 858mm. The remaining allowance of the line body is 72mm, which avoids the problem of unusability caused by changes in air conditioner models or obsolescence of models.

[0063] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art can easily conceive of various equivalent modifications or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed in the present invention, and these modifications or substitutions should all be covered within the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention should be determined by the scope of the claims.
