[0025] As the core component of wind turbine generators that converts wind energy into mechanical energy, the structural integrity and operational reliability of wind turbine blades directly affect the overall power generation efficiency and safety of the generator. Existing blades are usually made of composite materials, and embedded parts need to be set at the blade root during the molding process to facilitate the subsequent installation of fasteners and the connection between the blade and the hub.
[0026] During the operation of wind turbine blades, the blade root area typically bears extremely high alternating loads, thus requiring reliable connection strength. Existing blade root embedded parts are usually composed of separate bolt sleeves and bolt assemblies, which are connected by threads and jointly fixed to the mounting holes of the flange. Subsequently, the flange with the embedded part is aligned and connected to the blade mold.
[0027] Based on this, the applicant found that in existing assembly processes, the common practice is to place and fix the flange horizontally, and then have operators or semi-automatic equipment assemble the embedded parts one by one at each mounting hole position on the flange. Because there are numerous mounting holes on the flange and they are distributed circumferentially, after assembling one hole, the assembly tool needs to be moved to the next hole for repositioning and alignment. This repetitive alignment process is relatively cumbersome, especially when dealing with large-sized, heavy flanges. The frequent movement and repositioning of tools significantly increases the time spent on assembling individual parts, resulting in low overall assembly efficiency. Furthermore, the horizontal placement of the flange requires it to occupy a large area of space roughly equal to its diameter in the horizontal plane, placing high demands on factory layout and logistics channels. The overall equipment footprint is large, which is not conducive to compact production line design.
[0028] To address the aforementioned issues, this application provides a blade root embedded part assembly device and a blade root embedded part assembly method, which can effectively improve the assembly efficiency of embedded parts and reduce the space required for the device.
[0029] It is understood that the following embodiments of this application are only used as examples of applying the blade root embedded part assembly equipment and blade root embedded part assembly method to the production of wind turbine blades. However, it should be understood that the blade root embedded part assembly equipment and blade root embedded part assembly method provided in the embodiments of this application are not limited to the following embodiments, and can also be used in other occasions where it is necessary to connect components to large flanges and protect them.
[0030] To better understand this application, the following will be combined with... Figures 1 to 6 The assembly equipment and method for blade root embedded parts provided in the embodiments of this application will be described in detail.

[0032] In a first aspect, according to an embodiment of this application, a blade root embedded part assembly device 100 is provided for assembling a blade root embedded part to a flange 200. The blade root embedded part includes a first sub-part 101 and a second sub-part 102. The blade root embedded part assembly device 100 includes: a flange support device 10, including a support assembly 11, a connecting assembly 12, and a driving assembly. The connecting assembly 12 is rotatably connected to the support assembly 11, and the driving assembly can drive the connecting assembly 12 to rotate relative to the support assembly 11. The connecting assembly 12 can be detachably connected to the flange 200, and the rotation axis of the connecting assembly 12 extends along a first direction X; a feeding device 20 is disposed on one side of the flange support device 10 in the first direction X, and the feeding device 20 includes a first storage group. The flange 200 includes a first sub-component 21 and a feeding assembly 22. The feeding assembly 22 is movably connected to the first storage assembly 21. The first storage assembly 21 is used to store multiple first sub-components 101. The feeding assembly 22 is configured to move the first sub-components 101 to a preset assembly position and abut the first sub-components 101 against a preset position of the flange 200. The assembly device 30 is disposed on the side of the flange support device 10 away from the feeding device 20 in the first direction X. The assembly device 30 includes a second storage assembly 31 and an assembly assembly 32. The second storage assembly 31 is used to store multiple second sub-components 102. The assembly assembly 32 is configured to move the second sub-components 102 to a preset assembly position so that the second sub-components 102 pass through the flange 200 and are connected to the first sub-components 101.
[0033] This application discloses a blade root embedded part assembly device 100, applied in the processing of wind turbine blades. Specifically, it is used to assemble blade root embedded parts to a flange 200, which can then be connected to a blade mold to form an embedded part located inside the blade after injection and curing. The blade root embedded part may include a separately configured first sub-part 101 and a second sub-part 102, wherein the first sub-part 101 can be a bolt sleeve, and the second sub-part 102 can be a stud or bolt, or other structural component for connection, that mates with the bolt sleeve. The blade root embedded part assembly device 100 is used to assemble the first sub-part 101 and the second sub-part 102 from both sides to the flange 200 and connect them to each other.
[0034] The assembly equipment comprises three main components: a flange support device 10 for supporting and moving the flange 200, a feeding device 20 for supplying the first sub-component 101, and an assembly device 30 for supplying the second sub-component 102 and assembling the second sub-component 102 to the first sub-component 101.
[0035] Specifically, the flange support device 10 includes a support assembly 11, a connecting assembly 12, and a drive assembly. The support assembly 11 serves as the frame foundation of the equipment and can be fixed to the ground or a work platform. The connecting assembly 12 is rotatably connected to the support assembly 11, with its rotation axis extending along a first direction X. The connecting assembly 12 may be provided with a structure for detachable connection with the flange 200, allowing the flange 200 to be fixed to the connecting assembly 12 and rotate synchronously therewith. In a specific configuration, the first direction X can be horizontal, allowing the flange 200 to rotate vertically during assembly. The drive assembly can consist of a servo motor, a reducer, a transmission mechanism, and other components. Its output end is connected to the connecting assembly 12, enabling it to drive the connecting assembly 12 to rotate relative to the support assembly 11 around the first direction X.
[0036] Furthermore, the feeding device 20 is disposed on one side of the flange support device 10 in the first direction X, that is, on the front or back side of the flange 200. The feeding device 20 includes a first storage component 21 and a feeding component 22, wherein the first storage component 21 is used to simultaneously store multiple first sub-components 101, facilitating subsequent assembly through a single or fewer feeding operations. The feeding component 22 and the first storage component 21 can be movably connected, or the feeding component 22 can include multiple sub-components movably connected to each other, used to pick up the first sub-component 101 from the first storage component 21 and move the first sub-component 101 to a preset position on the flange 200, so that its end abuts against the surface of the flange 200. Specifically, while abutting, the first sub-component 101 can be aligned with one or more mounting holes on the flange 200 that have been rotated to a preset assembly position, so as to facilitate the subsequent insertion and installation of the second sub-component 102.
[0037] The assembly device 30 can be disposed on the side of the flange support device 10 opposite to the feeding device 20 in the first direction X. The assembly device 30 includes a second storage component 31 for storing multiple second sub-components 102, and an assembly component 32 capable of moving and installing the second sub-components 102. The assembly component 32 can remove the second sub-components 102 from the second storage component 31, move the second sub-components 102 to a preset assembly position and make them pass through the corresponding mounting holes on the flange 200, and perform rotation or other actions to connect the second sub-components 102 with the already positioned first sub-components 101, thereby connecting and fixing the first sub-components 101 and the second sub-components 102 to the flange 200 from both sides. It is understood that the first sub-components 101 and the second sub-components 102 are moved to the same preset assembly position, and as the flange support device 10 drives the flange to rotate, the positions of each embedded part on the flange that need to be assembled can be moved sequentially to the preset assembly position.
[0038] The assembly equipment connects the flange 200 to the controllably rotatable connecting assembly 12, and fixes the feeding device 20 and the assembly device 30 to predetermined working positions on opposite sides of the flange 200's thickness direction. In actual operation, the flange support device 10 can drive the flange 200 to rotate stepwise at a preset angle, sequentially feeding each mounting hole to the fixed assembly position. Therefore, during each assembly, the feeding assembly 22 and the assembly assembly 32 do not need to re-find and correct their positions due to changes in hole positions; instead, they only need to connect and assemble at a fixed preset position, eliminating the need for repeated alignment steps. Simultaneously, the rotation axis of the connecting assembly 12 extends along a first direction X. By setting this first direction X to a horizontal direction, the flange 200 can be rotated and assembled in a vertical or near-vertical posture. This allows the flange 200 to occupy only a width space equivalent to its thickness in the horizontal direction, significantly reducing the space required for equipment installation and operation compared to a horizontal placement method, contributing to the miniaturization and layout optimization of the production line.
[0039] In some optional embodiments, the flange 200 includes a weight-reducing hole 103 that extends through its own thickness direction. The connecting assembly 12 includes a connecting plate 121, a first snap-fit member 122, and a second snap-fit member 123. The connecting plate 121 is rotatably connected to the support assembly 11. The first snap-fit member 122 and the second snap-fit member 123 are respectively disposed on the side of the connecting plate 121 away from the support assembly 11. Along the second direction Y, the first snap-fit member 122 and the second snap-fit member 123 are each provided with a snap-fit groove 1221 on the side away from each other. The first direction X intersects with the second direction Y, and the first snap-fit member 122 and the second snap-fit member 123 can be snap-fitted to the flange 200 through the snap-fit groove 1221.
[0040] Optionally, since the flange 200 itself has a large radius, in order to reduce the overall weight of the flange 200, the existing flange 200 usually includes a weight reduction hole 103 that runs through it along its thickness direction. The weight reduction hole 103 can be fan-shaped or similar in shape to correspond to the semi-circular structure of the flange 200.
[0041] Based on this, the connecting assembly 12 may further include a connecting plate 121, a first snap-fit member 122 and a second snap-fit member 123, wherein the connecting plate 121 can serve as a basic support and a transition structure, used to rotatably connect with the support assembly 11 and provide support for other structures in the connecting assembly 12. The rotation axis of the connecting plate 121 extends along the first direction X, and the connecting plate 121 can be circular and extend along a plane, and the plane in which it is located can be perpendicular to the first direction X.
[0042] The first snap-fit member 122 and the second snap-fit member 123 are both connected to the side of the connecting plate 121 facing away from the support assembly 11. Along the second direction Y, which intersects the first direction X, snap-fit grooves 1221 are formed on the sides of the first snap-fit member 122 and the second snap-fit member 123 facing away from each other, so that they can more stably engage with the flange 200. Optionally, the second direction Y can be a vertical direction, referring to the vertical direction when the flange 200 is in its initial state. After the connecting assembly 12 drives the flange 200 to rotate, the orientation of the snap-fit grooves 1221 can change accordingly. The first snap-fit member 122 and the second snap-fit member 123 can both be approximately L-shaped plate structures, so that one side can connect to the connecting plate 121, and the other side can extend into the weight-reducing hole 103.
[0043] Exemplarily, the first snap-fit member 122 can be located above, and the second snap-fit member 123 can be located below. The snap-fit grooves 1221 on both can open upwards and downwards respectively, so that after they extend into the weight-reducing hole 103, they can fix the flange 200 at least in the second direction Y. If the snap-fit member also abuts against other edges of the weight-reducing hole 103, it can also provide a limiting effect in other directions. Optionally, when connecting the flange 200, the first snap-fit member 122 and the second snap-fit member 123 can extend into the same or different weight-reducing holes 103 of the flange 200 and engage with the edge wall of the weight-reducing hole 103 using the snap-fit groove 1221, thereby achieving a snap-fit connection between the flange 200 and the connecting assembly 12. The width of the snap-fit groove 1221 can be slightly larger than the wall thickness of the flange 200 to ensure smooth engagement.
[0044] By setting a first snap-fit member 122 and a second snap-fit member 123 arranged along the second direction Y, the flange 200 can, under the action of gravity, position and suspend the upper edge of the weight-reducing hole 103 within the snap-fit groove 1221 of the first snap-fit member 122, thereby achieving the positioning and suspension of the flange 200 in the second direction Y, i.e., the vertical direction. The lower snap-fit member, through the snap-fit groove 1221, engages and presses down on the lower edge of the weight-reducing hole 103, restricting the upward movement of the flange 200, thus forming a reliable constraint on the flange 200 at least in the second direction Y, ensuring that the flange 200 remains synchronized with the connecting assembly 12 and maintains a stable position during rotation.
[0045] In some optional embodiments, the first snap-fit connector 122 is detachably connected to the connecting plate 121, and the connecting plate 121 has a plurality of mounting positions 1211 spaced apart along the third direction Z. The mounting positions 1211 of the connecting plate 121 connected to the first snap-fit connector 122 are adjustable, and the first direction X, the second direction Y and the third direction Z are arranged intersecting each other. The second snap-fit connector 123 is movably connected to the connecting plate 121, and the second snap-fit connector 123 can reciprocate relative to the connecting plate 121 along the second direction Y.
[0046] Optionally, the first snap-fit member 122 and the connecting plate 121 can be detachably connected, such as by bolts or pins, and the connecting plate 121 can have multiple mounting positions 1211 spaced apart in the third direction Z, for example, multiple sets of bolt holes spaced apart. The third direction Z intersects the first direction X and the second direction Y in pairs, and can further be configured to be perpendicular to each other in pairs. When the flange 200 is in its initial, unrotated position, the third direction Z can be horizontal.
[0047] By selecting different mounting positions 1211 to connect and fix the first snap-fit member 122, the radial position of the first snap-fit member 122 on the connecting plate 121 can be changed, thereby facilitating the adaptation of flanges 200 with different diameters or different positions having weight reduction holes 103.
[0048] Meanwhile, the second snap-fit 123 is movably connected to the connecting plate 121. Specifically, it can adopt a linear guide structure with a slide rail and a slider, and be driven by a cylinder or lead screw, so that the second snap-fit 123 can reciprocate relative to the connecting plate 121 along the second direction Y, thereby changing the distance between the first snap-fit 122 and the second snap-fit 123.
[0049] By adjusting the installation position of the first snap-fit member 122 and the spacing between multiple first snap-fit members 122, and in conjunction with the up-and-down movement of the second snap-fit member 123, the connecting assembly 12 can adapt to flanges 200 of different diameters. When installing a large-diameter flange 200, the first snap-fit member 122 is installed in the radially outer mounting position 1211; when installing a small-diameter flange 200, the inner mounting position 1211 is selected. The second snap-fit member 123 moves accordingly to match the position of the weight-reducing hole 103. In addition, the movable second snap-fit member 123 can retract first during initial clamping to reduce the spacing, making it easier for the first snap-fit member 122 and the second snap-fit member 123 to simultaneously extend into the weight-reducing hole 103. After the first snap-fit member 122 is engaged, the second snap-fit member 123 is driven to extend outward until its snap-fit groove 1221 engages with the other edge of the weight-reducing hole 103. This makes the clamping and disassembly of the flange 200 more convenient and further improves assembly efficiency.
[0050] In some optional embodiments, the connecting assembly 12 further includes an electromagnetic adsorption element 124, with multiple electromagnetic adsorption elements 124 respectively disposed on the side of the connecting plate 121 facing the first snap-fit element 122, and the electromagnetic adsorption elements 124 being able to adsorb the flange 200 along the first direction X.
[0051] Optionally, the connecting assembly 12 further includes a plurality of electromagnetic adsorption elements 124, which are respectively disposed on the side of the connecting plate 121 facing the first snap-fit element 122 and optionally spaced apart from each other. The existing flange 200 is typically a metal structure. When energized, these electromagnetic adsorption elements 124 generate an electromagnetic adsorption force in the first direction X, adsorbing the surface of the flange 200 facing the connecting plate 121 onto the working surface of the electromagnetic adsorption element 124. These electromagnetic adsorption elements 124 can be arranged in the vicinity of the first snap-fit element 122 and the second snap-fit element 123, or they can be arranged in a manner such as being evenly distributed around the center of the connecting plate 121.
[0052] By setting an electromagnetic adsorption component 124 on the connecting plate 121, an additional magnetic adsorption force along the first direction X can be applied in addition to the radial and tangential constraints provided by the two snap-fit components. This effectively prevents the flange 200 from axially displacing along the first direction X due to vibration or inertia during rotation, or even from falling off, thereby further improving the safety and reliability of the working process.
[0053] In some optional embodiments, the connecting assembly 12 further includes a mounting hole positioning element 125, which is disposed near the edge of the connecting plate 121 and extends radially along the connecting plate 121. A positioning pin is provided at the end of the mounting hole positioning element 125 away from the connecting plate 121. The positioning pin is movable relative to the connecting plate 121 in a first direction X to be inserted into or removed from the mounting hole of the flange 200.
[0054] Optionally, the connecting assembly 12 may further include a mounting hole positioning element 125. This mounting hole positioning element 125 is disposed near the edge of the connecting plate 121 and extends radially outward along the connecting plate 121, with a positioning pin disposed at its end away from the connecting plate 121. This positioning pin can extend or retract relative to the connecting plate 121 along a first direction X. When the positioning pin is extended, it can be inserted into a corresponding mounting hole on the flange 200 to assist in applying rotational and supporting forces to the flange 200. When the positioning pin is retracted, the structure disengages from the mounting hole of the flange 200.
[0055] It is understood that the flange 200 typically has multiple mounting holes along its circumference. All of these mounting holes may require the installation of embedded parts, or only some may require them. In embodiments where only some require installation, the mounting hole positioning element 125 can be inserted into the mounting holes that do not require embedded parts. In embodiments where all require embedded parts, additional holes for mating with positioning pins can be provided, or the holes can temporarily mate with the mounting holes, and the holes temporarily mating with the positioning pins can be assembled after the other mounting holes are assembled.
[0056] Optionally, the mechanism for driving the positioning pin to move can be a cylinder or an electromagnetic push rod. The positioning pin can be a self-extending structure, or it can be driven to move relative to the connecting plate 121 in a first direction X.
[0057] During assembly, after the flange 200 is initially fixed by the two snap-fit components, the locating pin can be driven to extend or elongate along the first direction X and insert into the mounting hole of the flange 200, which can accurately position and lock the flange 200 and the connecting assembly 12 in the rotational direction. When the drive assembly drives the connecting assembly 12 to rotate, the rotational torque is transmitted to the flange 200 through the first snap-fit component 122, the second snap-fit component 123 and the locating pin. The mounting hole locating component 125 can share the shear torque borne by the snap-fit components, avoiding relative slippage between the flange 200 and the snap-fit components during repeated start-stop and acceleration / deceleration, thereby further improving the stability of the support and limiting of the flange 200.
[0058] In some alternative embodiments, the connecting assembly 12 includes two mounting hole positioning elements 125, which are arranged radially symmetrically along the connecting plate 121.
[0059] Optionally, the connecting assembly 12 may include two mounting hole positioning elements 125, which may be arranged symmetrically along the radial direction of the connecting plate 121, that is, the two are arranged 180° opposite each other about the rotation center of the connecting plate 121, and may be further optionally arranged symmetrically along the third direction Z.
[0060] By simultaneously inserting two symmetrically arranged locating pins into two opposite bolt holes on the flange 200, the force on the flange 200 on the connecting plate 121 can be more balanced, thereby eliminating the eccentric torque that may be caused by unilateral positioning, and further improving the positioning accuracy and stability of the flange 200 during rotation and assembly.
[0061] In some optional embodiments, the connecting assembly 12 further includes a plurality of auxiliary snap-fit connectors disposed on the side of the connecting plate 121 opposite to the support assembly 11. The length of the auxiliary snap-fit connectors along the first direction X is adjustable so that the auxiliary snap-fit connectors can be inserted into the weight reduction hole 103 of the flange 200.
[0062] Optionally, the connecting assembly 12 may further include multiple auxiliary snap-fit components. These auxiliary snap-fit components are disposed on the side of the connecting plate 121 opposite to the support assembly 11, that is, on the same side as the first snap-fit component 122 and the second snap-fit component 123. The length of the auxiliary snap-fit components along the first direction X is adjustable so that they can extend into and exit the weight-reducing holes 103 of the flange 200. The auxiliary snap-fit components may be constructed as telescopic pin structures, and their axial extension length can be changed by thread adjustment or cylinder drive, so that their ends can extend and retract according to the axial position and depth of the weight-reducing holes 103 of the flange 200, and be inserted into the corresponding weight-reducing holes 103 to provide auxiliary support and limiting function.
[0063] After the auxiliary snap-fit connector is inserted into the weight-reducing hole 103, it can form additional radial and tangential constraints on the flange 200. Through its synergistic effect with the first snap-fit connector 122 and the second snap-fit connector 123, it can increase the number of connection points between the flange 200 and the connecting assembly 12, further dispersing the load generated by the flange 200's own weight and assembly force, improving the overall support stability of the flange 200 during rotation and installation, as well as the synchronization of the flange 200 and the connecting assembly 12 during rotation.
[0064] In some optional embodiments, the first storage component 21 includes a support leg 211 and a support slide 212 disposed on the support leg 211. The first storage component 21 includes three or more support slides 212 extending parallel to each other. The support slide 212 has a first end and a second end opposite to each other in its own extension direction. The length of the support leg 211 connected to the first end is less than the length of the support leg 211 connected to the second end. The feeding component 22 is disposed close to the first end. The feeding component 22 includes a clamping member 221 and a first moving member 222 connected to each other. The clamping member 221 can clamp and connect to the first sub-component 101. The first moving member 222 can drive the clamping member 221 to move along the first direction X, the second direction Y and the third direction Z. The first direction X, the second direction Y and the third direction Z are arranged to intersect each other.
[0065] Optionally, the first storage component 21 may include a support leg 211 for providing support and a support slide 212 disposed on the support leg 211 for directly supporting the first sub-component 101. Furthermore, the first storage component 21 may have three or more support slides 212 extending parallel to each other, thereby allowing the first storage component 21 to adapt to various first sub-components 101 of different lengths through the combination of different slides in pairs.
[0066] Each support slide 212 has a first end and a second end in its extension direction, wherein the length of the support leg 211 connected to the first end is less than the length of the support leg 211 connected to the second end, so that the entire support slide 212 is inclined downward in the direction from the first end to the second end, so that the first sub-component 101 placed on the support slide 212 can naturally roll or slide towards the first end under the action of gravity.
[0067] The first sub-component 101 can be placed horizontally on multiple support slides 212 along its own axis. Under the action of gravity, it can naturally roll down from the second end to the first end along the support slides 212, and can fall one by one to the feeding assembly 22 with the help of baffles and other structures, or be picked up one by one by the feeding assembly 22.
[0068] The loading assembly 22 is located near the first end of the support slide 212, and includes a clamping member 221 and a first moving member 222 connected to each other. The clamping member 221 can be a pneumatic gripper or a mechanical gripper, etc., which clamps and fixes the first sub-component 101. The first moving member 222 can be composed of a multi-axis motion module or a multi-axis robotic arm, etc., which can drive the clamping member 221 to move freely in the first direction X, the second direction Y, and the third direction Z, so as to move the clamping member 221 and the first sub-component 101 to a preset assembly position.
[0069] Since the first component 101 is typically a cylindrical bolt sleeve with a relatively smooth and regular surface, by tilting the support slide 212, the first component 101 can be automatically fed to the first end by its own weight, without the need for an additional pushing or conveying mechanism, thus simplifying the structure of the first storage component 21. After the clamping member 221 located near the first end picks up the first component 101 that has slid into place, the first moving member 222 precisely moves the first component 101 to the preset mounting position 1211 of the flange 200 in three degrees of freedom, and makes its end abut against the surface of the flange 200, preparing for the subsequent insertion and connection of the second component 102. This makes the feeding process more continuous, stable and accurate in positioning.
[0070] In some optional embodiments, the assembly component 32 includes a second moving member 321, a screwing member 322, an image acquisition member 323, and an elastic sleeve 324. The screwing member 322 and the image acquisition member 323 are respectively disposed on the second moving member 321, and the second moving member 321 can drive the screwing member 322 and the image acquisition member 323 to move along a first direction X, a second direction Y, and a third direction Z. The first direction X, the second direction Y, and the third direction Z are intersecting each other. The elastic sleeve 324 is connected to the end of the screwing member 322, and the end of the elastic sleeve 324 away from the screwing member 322 can be connected to the second sub-component 102 and rotate under the drive of the screwing member 322.
[0071] Optionally, the assembly component 32 may include a second moving part 321, a screwing part 322, an image acquisition part 323, and an elastic sleeve 324. The screwing part 322 and the image acquisition part 323 are both mounted on the second moving part 321. The second moving part 321 has the ability to simultaneously drive both of them to move in the first direction X, the second direction Y, and the third direction Z. This can be achieved by a gantry-type or articulated multi-axis motion mechanism, or by using a multi-directional slide rail and slider.
[0072] Optionally, the screwing member 322 can be an electrically or pneumatically driven rotary power head, with an elastic sleeve 324 connected to its end. The elastic sleeve 324 can accommodate and temporarily fix the second sub-part 102, for example, by adsorption by an internal magnet or clamping by elastic claws, and drive the second sub-part 102 to rotate synchronously under the drive of the screwing member 322. The elastic sleeve 324 can have a certain elastic deformation capability and corresponding guiding capability, thereby providing a certain axial floating capability to compensate for slight axial and angular deviations between the second sub-part 102 and the first sub-part 101 during the docking process, preventing jamming or stripping, and allowing the hexagonal bolt head to smoothly dock with the screwing member 322, facilitating the screwing member 322 to apply torque to the second sub-part 102.
[0073] The image acquisition device 323 can be an industrial camera, etc. The image acquisition device 323 can be used to acquire image information of the mounting hole on the flange 200 and the end of the first sub-component 101. Then, based on the image information and the real-time position of the second sub-component 102, the relative position deviation between the second sub-component 102 and the mounting hole is calculated by the vision system. Then, the relative position deviation fed back to the second moving part 321 is corrected and aligned.
[0074] The aforementioned structure can improve the installation and positioning accuracy of the second sub-component 102, while also increasing the success rate and reliability of screwing and assembly.
[0075] Please see Figure 5 , Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a second moving component provided in one embodiment of this application.
[0076] In some optional embodiments, the second storage component 31 includes a storage component 311, a transplanting component 312, and a transfer component 313. The transplanting component 312 is provided with a plurality of transplanting slots, which are movable along the extension direction of the transplanting component 312 to move the second sub-component 102. The storage component 311 is disposed at one end of the transplanting component 312 and is used to store the second sub-component 102. The transfer component 313 includes a support sub-component 3131 and a gripping sub-component 3132 movably connected to the support sub-component 3131. The support sub-component 3131 is connected to the storage component 311 and / or the transplanting component 312. The gripping sub-component 3132 is movable relative to the support sub-component 3131 along the extension direction and the vertical direction of the transplanting component 312, and the gripping sub-component 3132 is capable of gripping the second sub-component 102.
[0077] Optionally, the second storage component 31 may include a storage component 311 for storing the second sub-component 102, a transfer component 312 for moving the second sub-component 102, and a transfer component 313 for transferring the second sub-component 102 to the assembly component 32.
[0078] Specifically, the storage unit 311 is disposed on one end of the transplanting unit 312 for accommodating the second sub-components 102 in batches. The transplanting unit 312 is provided with multiple transplanting slots, which can move cyclically along the extension direction of the transplanting unit 312. For example, multiple transplanting slots can be driven to rotate by a chain or conveyor belt, so that the second sub-components 102 are moved from the storage unit 311 to the range that the transfer unit 313 can grasp.
[0079] Thus, the second sub-component 102 is released one by one from the storage component 311 into the transplanting trough, and is conveyed to the working range of the transfer component 313 as the transplanting trough moves. The transfer component 313 includes a support sub-component 3131 and a gripping sub-component 3132 movably connected to the support sub-component 3131. The support sub-component 3131 is fixed to the frame of the storage component 311 and / or the transplanting component 312. The gripping sub-component 3132 can move relative to the support sub-component 3131 along the extension direction of the transplanting component 312 and in the vertical direction, gripping the second sub-component 102 from the transplanting trough and transferring it to the elastic sleeve 324 of the assembly assembly 32. Optionally, the specific gripping method of the gripping sub-component 3132 can be clamping, hooking, etc., and this application does not make specific limitations on this, provided that it does not interfere with the transplanting trough.
[0080] By cooperating with the transfer component 312 and the transfer component 313, the second sub-component 102 can be orderly taken out one by one from the storage area and delivered to the end of the screwing component 322. Then, it is connected to the screwing component 322 through the elastic sleeve 324, realizing the automation and rhythm of the supply of the second sub-component 102, thereby reducing the intermittent operation of manual picking and filling, and making the entire assembly process more continuous and efficient.
[0081] Please see Figure 6 , Figure 6 This is a flowchart of a leaf root embedded part assembly method provided in one embodiment of this application.
[0082] Secondly, according to embodiments of this application, a method for assembling a blade root embedded part is proposed, including: S1. Provide a leaf root embedded part assembly device 100 according to any embodiment of the first aspect; S2. Provide multiple first sub-components 101 and multiple second sub-components 102, place the multiple first sub-components 101 in the first storage component 21, and place the multiple second sub-components 102 in the second storage component 31; S3. Provide a flange 200, which has multiple mounting holes. The flange 200 is detachably connected to the connection assembly 12. Rotate the flange 200 and position one of the multiple mounting holes in a preset position. S4. Control the feeding device 20 to move the first sub-component 101, so that one end of the first sub-component 101 abuts against the flange 200, and the first sub-component 101 is positioned opposite a mounting hole along the first direction X. S5. Control assembly device 30 moves second sub-component 102, inserts second sub-component 102 through the mounting hole opposite to first sub-component 101, and rotates second sub-component 102 to connect it with first sub-component 101. S6. Control the flange support device 10 to drive the flange 200 to rotate so that the adjacent mounting hole rotates to a preset position; S7. Repeat the step of controlling the feeding device 20 to move the first sub-component 101 to the step of controlling the flange support device 10 to drive the flange 200 to rotate, until the second sub-component 102 is installed in each mounting hole.
[0083] This application also proposes a method for assembling blade root embedded parts, which uses the aforementioned blade root embedded part assembly equipment 100 for assembly.
[0084] Specifically, the method first provides the leaf root pre-embedded component assembly device 100 in any of the aforementioned embodiments in step S1. Subsequently, in step S2, a plurality of first sub-components 101 and a plurality of second sub-components 102 are provided and placed into the first storage component 21 and the second storage component 31 for storage and use, respectively. The first sub-component 101 can be a cylindrical bolt sleeve, and the second sub-component 102 can be a screw or bolt, etc.
[0085] In step S3, a flange 200 with multiple mounting holes is provided, which are the positions where the first sub-component 101 and the second sub-component 102 need to be installed. The flange 200 is detachably connected to the connecting assembly 12, and the connecting assembly 12 is driven by the drive assembly, which indirectly drives the flange 200 to rotate, so that the first mounting hole reaches the preset assembly position.
[0086] Subsequently, in step S4, the feeding device 20 is controlled to move at least one first sub-component 101 so that one end of it abuts against the surface of the flange 200 and is directly opposite the current mounting hole along the first direction X. For example, the central axis of the mounting hole can be made to coincide with the central axis of the bolt hole in the first sub-component 101.
[0087] In step S5, the assembly device 30 is then controlled to move the second sub-component 102 through the mounting hole located at the assembly station, and the second sub-component 102 is screwed to connect and secure it to the first sub-component 101, completing the hole assembly. In this step, the image acquisition unit 323 in the assembly assembly assembly 32 can first acquire images of the flange 200 and the mounting hole to be installed, then obtain the positional deviation between the current second sub-component 102 and the mounting hole based on the image acquisition results, and then move the second sub-component 102 according to the positional deviation, thereby improving the alignment accuracy of the second sub-component 102 during insertion and installation.
[0088] Subsequently, in step S6, the control flange support device 10 drives the flange 200 to rotate by a predetermined angle, so that the next adjacent mounting hole rotates to the same preset assembly position, ready to continue the assembly at the next mounting hole.
[0089] In step S7, the aforementioned steps of feeding, inserting, fastening and rotating are repeated until all mounting holes on flange 200 that require embedded parts are assembled.
[0090] In this method, the working positions of the feeding device 20 and the assembly device 30 are relatively fixed, while the flange 200 rotates to switch the hole positions to be assembled, ensuring that the reference position remains unchanged for each assembly operation. Compared to the traditional method of moving assembly tools to align each hole position individually, this eliminates the need for repeated positioning and alignment processes, effectively improving the continuity and efficiency of assembly. Furthermore, because the flange 200 can rotate vertically, the overall production line's space occupied in the horizontal plane can be significantly reduced, facilitating efficient and compact automated assembly of blade root embedded parts.
[0091] In some optional embodiments, step S1 of providing the blade root pre-embedded component assembly equipment 100 in any embodiment of the first aspect includes: The connecting assembly 12 includes a connecting plate 121, a first snap-fit member 122, and a second snap-fit member 123. The connecting plate 121 is rotatably connected to the support assembly 11. The first snap-fit member 122 and the second snap-fit member 123 are respectively disposed on the side of the connecting plate 121 away from the support assembly 11. Along the second direction Y, the first snap-fit member 122 and the second snap-fit member 123 are each provided with a snap-fit groove 1221 on the side away from each other. The first direction X intersects the second direction Y. The first snap-fit connector 122 is detachably connected to the connecting plate 121, and the connecting plate 121 has a plurality of mounting positions 1211 spaced apart along the third direction Z. The mounting positions 1211 of the connecting plate 121 connected to the first snap-fit connector 122 are adjustable. The first direction X, the second direction Y and the third direction Z are arranged to intersect each other. The second snap-fit connector 123 is movably connected to the connecting plate 121, and the second snap-fit connector 123 can reciprocate relative to the connecting plate 121 along the second direction Y. Step S3 for providing flange 200 includes: The flange 200 is provided with multiple weight reduction holes 103; Select mounting position 1211 according to the diameter of flange 200, and connect the first snap-fit part 122 to the selected mounting position 1211; The second card connector 123 is driven to move relative to the connecting plate 121, thereby reducing the distance between the first card connector 122 and the second card connector 123; Both the first snap-fit member 122 and the second snap-fit member 123 are inserted into the weight reduction hole 103, the flange 200 is suspended to the first snap-fit member 122, and the edge of the weight reduction hole 103 is inserted into the snap-fit groove 1221 of the first snap-fit member 122. The second snap-fit member 123 is driven to move away from the first snap-fit member 122 until the weight reduction hole 103 is inserted into the snap-fit groove 1221 of the second snap-fit member 123 on the opposite side edge in the second direction Y.
[0092] Optionally, in step S1 of providing the device, the connecting assembly 12 may include a connecting plate 121 with multiple mounting positions 1211, a first snap-fit member 122 detachably connected to different mounting positions 1211, and a second snap-fit member 123 movable along the second direction Y. For its specific structure, please refer to the description of the assembly device in the first aspect above, which will not be repeated here.
[0093] In step S3, which provides flange 200, flange 200 may have a weight-reducing hole 103. A suitable mounting position 1211 is selected based on the diameter of the flange 200 to be assembled and the position and size of the weight-reducing hole 103. The first snap-fit member 122 is then fixed to this mounting position 1211. Subsequently, the second snap-fit member 123 is driven to move along the second direction Y towards the first snap-fit member 122 to reduce the gap. Both are simultaneously inserted into the weight-reducing hole 103 of flange 200, suspending flange 200 on the first snap-fit member 122, and causing the upper edge of the weight-reducing hole 103 to engage with the snap-fit groove 1221 of the first snap-fit member 122. Then, the second snap-fit member 123 is driven to move in the opposite direction until the lower edge of the weight-reducing hole 103 also engages with the snap-fit groove 1221 of the second snap-fit member 123, thus completing the clamping of flange 200.
[0094] This clamping method utilizes the existing weight-reducing holes 103 on the flange 200 as the snap-fit points, eliminating the need for additional dedicated clamping holes on the flange 200. Furthermore, by selecting the mounting position 1211 of the first snap-fit member 122 and adjusting the movement of the second snap-fit member 123, it can quickly adapt to flanges 200 of different diameters, achieving reliable suspension and fixation of the flange 200 and flexible replacement, thus balancing the convenience and versatility of clamping.
[0095] The blade root embedded part assembly method provided in this application has all the beneficial effects of the blade root embedded part assembly equipment 100 provided in the first aspect above. For details, please refer to the specific description of the blade root embedded part assembly equipment 100 in the above embodiments. This application will not repeat it here.
[0096] Although this application has been described with reference to preferred embodiments, various modifications can be made thereto and components can be replaced with equivalents without departing from the scope of this application. In particular, the technical features mentioned in the various embodiments can be combined in any manner, provided there is no structural conflict. This application is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed herein, but includes all technical solutions falling within the scope of the claims.
