[0002] With societal development, people are demanding higher quality of life and paying increasing attention to personalization and aesthetics in home decoration. Aluminum frames are favored due to their superior material and attractive appearance. However, current aluminum frame assembly processes still face many challenges, significantly impacting product quality and production efficiency. The main problems are as follows:

[0003] 1) The aluminum frame assembly process is complex and involves many steps, including material preparation, gluing, wire pressing, debugging, and packaging. This not only occupies a large area, but also requires frequent transfers between different processes, which can easily cause interference and increase production difficulty.

[0004] 2) Existing aluminum frame assembly processes often require a large amount of manual labor, resulting in high labor intensity. Especially in the debugging and packaging stages, workers need to move back and forth between different equipment, which is both time-consuming and tiring.

[0005] In summary, traditional aluminum frame assembly processes can no longer meet current societal needs and require improvement and innovation. This invention aims to provide an efficient aluminum frame assembly process to solve many problems existing in current technologies. Summary of the Invention

[0006] In view of the above situation and to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, the present invention provides a frame assembly line to solve the above problems.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides a frame assembly line, comprising an online unit and an offline unit.

The offline unit includes an offline dispensing and frame assembly unit connected to the side of the online gluing strip unit, a pressing unit connected to the side of the online buffer unit, and a packaging unit connected to the end of the online debugging unit.

[0008] The online buffer unit is a double-layer roller mill, and a belt conveyor is provided on the first layer of the double-layer roller mill;

[0009] The pressing unit is an electrically operated lifting worktable;

[0010] The online debugging unit includes a semi-automatic 360° rotating shuttle connected between the online cache unit and the packaging unit, as well as several debugging lines.

[0011] The present invention has the following advantages compared with the prior art:

[0025] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-5 The specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in further detail below.

[0026] Depend on Figure 1-5 The present invention discloses a frame assembly line, comprising an online unit and an offline unit. The online unit includes an online gluing strip unit 30, an online buffer unit 40, and an online debugging unit 60 connected in sequence. The offline unit includes an offline material dispensing and frame assembly unit connected to the side of the online gluing strip unit 30, a crimping unit 50 connected to the side of the online buffer unit 40, and a packaging unit 70 connected to the end of the online debugging unit 60. During processing, workers place the assembled aluminum frames onto the online gluing strip unit 30, which moves the aluminum frames. During the movement of the aluminum frames, workers on the side of the online gluing strip unit 30 perform gluing strip insertion and corner glue application. Then, the aluminum frames continue to be conveyed through the online gluing strip unit 30 and enter the online buffer unit 40, where manual crimping is performed by the crimping unit 50. After the crimping is completed, the aluminum frames enter the online debugging unit 60 for debugging, and after debugging, they enter the packaging unit 70 for packaging.

[0027] The online buffer unit 40 is a double-layer roller machine, and the pressing unit 50 is an electric lifting worktable. The first layer of the double-layer roller machine is equipped with a belt conveyor 80. The aluminum frame with the rubber strip is inserted into the online buffer unit 40 and transferred to the pressing unit 50 by the belt conveyor 80. The worker performs the pressing operation on the line. After the pressing is completed, the electric lifting worktable rises, and then the worker pushes the pressed aluminum frame back to the upper layer of the online buffer unit 40 and continues to move through the upper layer of the online buffer unit 40.

[0028] The online debugging unit 60 includes a semi-automatic 90° flip-over shuttle 61 connected between the online buffer unit 40 and the packaging unit 70, and several debugging lines 62. The semi-automatic 90° flip-over shuttle 61 is used to receive aluminum frames transported from the upper layer of the online buffer unit 40, flip the aluminum frames 90° to make them stand up, and then move them to the debugging lines 62 to be arranged. On the debugging lines 62, workers perform debugging work before packaging. After the debugging is completed, the aluminum frames are sent to the packaging unit 70 for packaging.

[0029] The number of double-layer roller machines is 2-3, and photoelectric switches 41 and vertically lifting baffles 42 are installed at both ends of the double-layer roller machines. The double-layer roller machines are for temporarily storing aluminum frames. When the double-layer roller machines are full of aluminum frames, the baffles 42 can prevent aluminum frames from continuing to enter.

[0030] The number of debugging lines 62 is 4, and the debugging lines 62 are Figure 5 The track structure shown.

[0031] The offline batching and framing unit includes a batching and scanning unit 10 and an offline framing unit 20 connected between the batching and scanning unit 10 and the online adhesive stripping unit 30. In the batching and scanning unit 10, workers perform operations such as batching, applying end sealant, and inserting corner codes. In the offline framing unit 20, workers perform framing operations. The assembled aluminum frames are pushed into the online adhesive stripping unit 30 for conveying and enter the adhesive stripping process.

[0032] Specifically, the semi-automatic 90° tilting shuttle 61 is rotatably mounted with a frame support 62. The bottom of the frame support 62 is equipped with moving wheels. A telescopic cylinder 63 connects the frame support 62 and the semi-automatic 90° tilting shuttle 61. After the aluminum frame enters the frame support 62, the extension of the telescopic cylinder 63 can drive the frame support 62 to tilt 90°. Then, the moving wheels allow the aluminum frame to enter the test line 62 for testing.

[0033] The frame support 62 is equipped with rollers 64, which allow the standing aluminum frames to be pushed sequentially to the packaging unit 70 via the rollers 64. The semi-automatic 90° flip-over shuttle 61 connected between the online buffer unit 40 and the debugging line 60 serves as a transitional transfer.

[0034] The workflow of the assembly line according to the present invention is as follows:

[0035] ① The offline assembly is completed through the ingredient scanning unit 10 and the offline assembly unit 20 and then uploaded to the online adhesive strip unit 30.

[0036] ② The online adhesive strip unit 30 performs online adhesive strip insertion and corner glue application, and then enters the first layer of the online buffer unit 40;

[0037] ③ The pressing unit 50 is connected to the offline pressing unit via the belt conveyor 80 for pressing. After completion, the pressing unit 50 rises and puts the aluminum frame onto the second layer of the online buffer unit 40.

[0038] ④ The aluminum frame enters the debugging line 62 via a semi-automatic 90° rotating shuttle 61 for online debugging and caching;

[0039] ⑤ The adjusted aluminum frame moves within the adjustment line 62 and is packaged through the packaging unit 70.

[0040] The above description is merely an embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the patent scope of the present invention. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made based on the content of the present invention's specification and drawings, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of the present invention.
