Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of equipment tooling technology, and in particular to an electrical cabinet component installation tooling. Background Technology

[0002] In the process of assembling electrical cabinets, the installation of galvanized substrate components is a basic procedure. The existing operation method has obvious technical defects: in the traditional operation, the galvanized substrate is placed directly on a regular workbench. This posture is not ergonomic, and it is difficult for operators to operate while bending over, which can easily cause work fatigue. It may also affect the positioning accuracy of component installation due to the perspective problem.

[0003] For complex electrical cabinets with numerous components, installation requires the coordination of multiple workstations. However, in the current model, there are no dedicated transfer fixtures. After completing the work at one workstation, the galvanized substrate must be manually moved to the next workstation. This not only consumes a lot of manpower and time, severely reducing overall assembly efficiency, but also easily causes damage to the galvanized substrate and components during handling, increasing production losses. At the same time, manual handling cannot form a standardized assembly line operation mode, resulting in low efficiency in the connection between workstations and making it difficult to meet the needs of large-scale and efficient production of electrical cabinets. Summary of the Invention

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a fixture for installing electrical cabinet components to address the technical problems of inconvenient operation posture and low efficiency of manual handling of the substrate when installing components on galvanized substrates of traditional electrical cabinets.

[0005] To solve the above problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: This invention discloses an installation fixture for electrical cabinet components, including a support table, an intermediate support assembly, and a tray. The intermediate support assembly is disposed on the support table, and the tray is movably fitted onto the intermediate support assembly. The intermediate support assembly includes a support base, an angle-adjustable support member, and a horizontal rotating roller support member. The support base is fixed to the support table. One end of the horizontal rotating roller support member is hinged to the support base. Both ends of the angle-adjustable support member are respectively movably hinged to the other end of the horizontal rotating roller support member and the support base to adjust the tilt angle of the horizontal rotating roller support member. The horizontal rotating roller support is provided with an array of horizontal rotating rollers, and its bottom is provided with a sheet metal guide structure. The tray is adapted to the sheet metal guide structure and can move horizontally along the horizontal rotating rollers. The sheet metal guide structure provides movement guidance and anti-detachment limit for the tray. The circumferential edge of the tray is bent inward and the bottom edge of the tray is raised upward, together forming a limiting installation structure adapted to the galvanized substrate.

[0006] In one embodiment, the angle adjustment support includes a round tube, a lead screw passing through the round tube, and an adjusting nut screwed onto the lead screw. The extended ends of the round tube and the lead screw are hinged to their corresponding connecting ends by pins. Tightening the adjusting nut can adjust the length of the lead screw extending out of the round tube.

[0007] In one embodiment, the sheet metal guide structure is a sheet metal protrusion fixed to the bottom of the horizontal rotating roller support, and the bottom of the tray is provided with a sliding groove that matches the sheet metal protrusion. The sheet metal protrusion engages in the sliding groove to form a sliding guide fit.

[0008] In one embodiment, both ends of the horizontal rotating roller support are provided with limiting baffles, which are used to limit the horizontal movement stroke of the pallet.

[0009] In one embodiment, the support base is provided with an angle scale mark, and the horizontal rotating roller support is provided with an angle indicator that cooperates with the angle scale mark, so as to achieve precise angle adjustment.

[0010] In one embodiment, the support table is a height-adjustable structure.

[0011] In one embodiment, the outer wall of the tray is provided with a push-pull handle.

[0012] In one embodiment, the horizontal rotating roller is a polyurethane-coated roller, and the roller surface has an annular anti-slip groove.

[0013] The technical solution adopted in this invention can achieve the following beneficial effects: The electrical cabinet component installation fixture disclosed in this invention features a compact overall structure and convenient operation. Through the hinged connection between the angle adjustment support and the horizontal rotating roller support, the working angle of the galvanized substrate can be quickly adjusted, conforming to ergonomic operating requirements and significantly reducing operator fatigue. Simultaneously, the cooperation between the horizontal rotating roller and the sheet metal guide structure enables smooth horizontal movement of the galvanized substrate, replacing traditional manual handling methods. This facilitates multi-station personnel collaboration in component installation, creating a production line-like operation mode that effectively shortens the turnover time of the galvanized substrate and improves the overall installation efficiency and operational stability of the electrical cabinet components.

[0019] like Figures 1-2 As shown in the figure, an embodiment of the present invention discloses an electrical cabinet component installation fixture, which includes a support table 100, an intermediate support assembly 200 and a tray 300.

[0020] The intermediate support assembly 200 is fixedly mounted on the tabletop of the support table 100. The tray 300 is movably fitted with the intermediate support assembly 200 to support the galvanized substrate 400 of the components to be installed. The intermediate support assembly 200 includes a support base 210, an angle-adjustable support 220, and a horizontal rotating roller support 230. The support base 210 is fixedly connected to the tabletop of the support table 100, providing stable support for the entire intermediate support assembly 200. One end of the horizontal rotating roller support 230 is hinged to the support base 210, and both ends of the angle-adjustable support 220 are movably hinged to the other end of the horizontal rotating roller support 230 and the support base 210, respectively. By adjusting the length of the angle-adjustable support 220, the horizontal rotating roller support 230 can be rotated around the hinge point, thereby flexibly adjusting its tilt angle to suit the operator's installation posture.

[0021] The horizontal rotating roller support 230 has horizontal rotating rollers arranged in an array, and a sheet metal guide structure is fixedly installed at its bottom. The tray 300 is adapted to this sheet metal guide structure and can move smoothly horizontally left and right along the horizontal rotating rollers. The sheet metal guide structure plays a dual role in the movement of the tray 300: it provides precise movement guidance and also acts as an anti-slip limit to prevent the tray 300 from slipping during movement or operation. The circumferential edge of the tray 300 is bent inward, and the bottom edge of the tray 300 protrudes upward. The bent edge and the protruding bottom edge together form a limiting installation structure. This structure is adapted to the shape of the galvanized substrate 400, which can provide a stable placement space for the galvanized substrate 400 and prevent the galvanized substrate 400 from shifting or slipping during angle adjustment or horizontal movement, thus ensuring the stability of component installation operations.

[0022] In the specific work process, the galvanized substrate 400, which contains components such as circuit breakers, contactors, and guide rails to be installed, is first placed in the limiting installation structure of the tray 300 and initially positioned. Then, according to the operator's work habits and installation requirements, the angle adjustment support 220 is adjusted to change the tilt angle of the horizontal flow roller support 230, so that the galvanized substrate 400 is at an ergonomic operating angle. After the installation of some components at a single workstation is completed, the operator can directly push the tray 300, so that the tray 300 moves horizontally to other workstations along the horizontal flow rollers and sheet metal guide structure, realizing the rapid flow of the galvanized substrate 400 between multiple workstations. Personnel at multiple workstations can cooperate simultaneously to complete the component installation work. After all components are installed, the galvanized substrate 400 can be removed from the tray 300.

[0023] As can be seen from the above, the electrical cabinet component installation fixture disclosed in this embodiment of the invention has a compact overall structure and is easy to operate. Through the hinged cooperation between the angle adjustment support 220 and the horizontal rotating roller support 230, the working angle of the galvanized substrate 400 can be quickly adjusted, conforming to ergonomic operation requirements and significantly reducing operator fatigue. At the same time, by utilizing the cooperation between the horizontal rotating roller and the sheet metal guide structure, the horizontal and stable movement of the galvanized substrate 400 is achieved, replacing the traditional manual handling method. This facilitates the cooperation of multiple workstations to complete component installation and can build a production line-like operation mode, effectively shortening the turnover time of the galvanized substrate 400 and improving the overall installation efficiency and operational stability of the electrical cabinet components.

[0024] In this embodiment of the invention, the angle adjustment support 220 may include a round tube, a lead screw passing through the round tube, and an adjusting nut screwed onto the lead screw. The extended ends of both the round tube and the lead screw are hinged to their corresponding connecting ends via pins. Tightening the adjusting nut adjusts the length of the lead screw extending out of the round tube. The angle adjustment is achieved using a combination of the round tube, lead screw, and adjusting nut. The mechanical structure is simple and reliable, and the operation of tightening the adjusting nut is convenient and easy to understand. Operators can complete the angle adjustment without the need for complex tools. Furthermore, the screw-nut engagement has good self-locking properties, ensuring that the adjusted angle is stably maintained and will not deviate due to external forces during operation, thus guaranteeing the stability of the working angle of the galvanized substrate.

[0025] Furthermore, the sheet metal guide structure can be a sheet metal protrusion fixed to the bottom of the horizontal rotating roller support 230. The bottom of the tray 300 has a sliding groove that matches the sheet metal protrusion, and the sheet metal protrusion engages with the sliding groove to form a sliding guide fit. In this case, designing the sheet metal guide structure as a snap-fit ​​fit between the sheet metal protrusion and the sliding groove results in higher guiding accuracy and can effectively limit the left and right deviation of the tray during horizontal movement, ensuring that the tray always moves along the preset trajectory, further improving the stability of the tray movement. At the same time, the sheet metal protrusion is integrally fixed to the bottom of the horizontal rotating roller support, resulting in high structural strength and good wear resistance.

[0026] Furthermore, both ends of the horizontal roller support 230 can be equipped with limiting baffles. These baffles limit the horizontal movement of the pallet 300. This method can precisely limit the horizontal movement of the pallet 300, effectively preventing the pallet 300 from slipping off the end of the horizontal roller support 230 due to excessive pushing force from the operator. This also prevents the galvanized substrate from colliding and being damaged with components due to slippage, reducing product loss during operation. Furthermore, the support base 210 may be equipped with angle scale markings, and the horizontal rotating roller support 230 may be equipped with an angle indicator that cooperates with the angle scale markings, enabling precise angle adjustment. Through the cooperation of the angle scale markings and the angle indicator, operators can intuitively and accurately control the tilt angle of the horizontal rotating roller support, replacing the traditional experience-based adjustment method and realizing quantitative adjustment of the working angle of the galvanized substrate.

[0027] Furthermore, the support table 100 can be a height-adjustable structure. Designing the support table as height-adjustable allows for flexible adjustment of the overall working height of the tooling according to the operator's height, work habits, and the dimensions of the galvanized substrate. Furthermore, a push-pull handle is provided on the outer wall of the pallet 300. Adding a push-pull handle to the outer wall of the pallet 300 provides a convenient point of force for operators to push or pull the pallet 300, making horizontal movement of the pallet 300 easier and smoother. This is especially beneficial when heavier components are mounted on the galvanized substrate 400, effectively reducing the difficulty of moving the pallet 300. Furthermore, the horizontal rotating rollers are polyurethane-coated rollers, with annular anti-slip grooves on the roller surface. The use of polyurethane-coated rollers leverages the excellent elasticity and wear resistance of the polyurethane material, reducing sliding friction between the pallet and rollers for smoother pallet movement, and effectively cushioning the impact force between the pallet and rollers, preventing damage to the pallet or rollers from hard collisions.

[0028] Furthermore, the bottom of the support table 100 is equipped with universal casters with brakes, allowing the entire tooling to move flexibly according to the workstation layout on the production site. After moving to the designated position, it is fixed by braking, further improving the tooling's site adaptability. Adjustable positioning buckles are set in the limiting installation structure of the pallet 300. The position of the positioning buckles can be adjusted according to the different sizes of galvanized substrates, allowing the pallet to adapt to various specifications of galvanized substrates, further improving the tooling's versatility. Multiple angle-adjustable support components 220 are set on the intermediate support assembly 200, evenly distributed at the bottom of the horizontal rotating roller support component 230, making the force on the horizontal rotating roller support component more uniform, the stability after angle adjustment better, and the ability to adapt to the load-bearing requirements of heavier galvanized substrates and components.

[0029] Furthermore, vertical lifting columns are symmetrically fixed on both sides of the support table 100. The columns are metal profile structures with built-in telescopic rods. The rods are equipped with height locking buckles, and the overall height of the columns can be adjusted according to the work requirements to form a lighting support structure extending to the top of the tooling. A horizontal slide rail is installed between the tops of the two columns. A sliding lighting bracket is installed on the slide rail. A positioning knob is set between the bracket and the slide rail, which can slide left and right along the slide rail and be fixed above any work position.

[0030] The lighting bracket suspends a rotatable lighting assembly 500 at the bottom. The assembly includes a universal joint arm and a high-brightness industrial LED lamp head. The universal joint arm allows the lamp head to rotate 360° without dead angles and tilt up and down at any angle. The lamp head comes with a brightness adjustment switch and an anti-glare transparent cover, and is compatible with industrial operating voltage.

[0031] The wiring of the lighting mechanism is concealed along the inner side of the column and the horizontal slide rail. A main power interface and an independent control switch are set on one side of the support table 100, which can control the lighting start and stop independently. During operation, the height of the column, the position of the slide rail of the lighting bracket, and the angle of the lamp head can be flexibly adjusted according to the installation position of the galvanized substrate and the operating angle, so that the lighting covers the entire area from the top of the tooling to the work surface, eliminating blind spots and providing sufficient and adjustable lighting for precise installation of components, bolt tightening and other operations, ensuring installation accuracy.

[0032] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementations of the present invention, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the invention patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of the present invention, and these all fall within the protection scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of this invention patent should be determined by the appended claims.
