Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of automated processing equipment technology, and more particularly to an assembly device for server racks. Background Technology

[0002] In the manufacturing process of large server racks (such as server racks, power supply racks, and control cabinets), various materials, including power modules, mainframes, and electronic components, need to be installed one by one inside the rack. Large server racks are typically bulky and heavy, with limited internal installation space and installation positions distributed at different heights and depths, requiring high precision and stability in material handling and assembly operations. Currently, the assembly of large server racks largely relies on manual labor: workers manually move materials from stacks to the front of the rack and then individually insert them into the rack for installation. Due to the large size of the racks, the large quantity and weight of the materials, manual handling is physically demanding, easily causing worker fatigue. Prolonged operation can also lead to instability during handling, material collisions, and even safety accidents. Furthermore, during rack assembly, the lack of effective fixation makes the rack prone to shaking or shifting during manual assembly, affecting assembly precision and efficiency. Manual operation makes it difficult to guarantee the consistency and accuracy of material handling and assembly processes, hindering the improvement of production efficiency and product quality. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The present invention aims to solve the technical problems of large cabinet assembly relying on manual labor, high labor intensity, low assembly accuracy and efficiency in the prior art, and provides a cabinet assembly equipment that can realize automatic material feeding, handling, cabinet installation and automatic cabinet clamping and fixing.

If the specific posture changes, the directional indication will also change accordingly.

[0019] Furthermore, the use of terms such as "first" and "second" in this application is for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of that feature. Additionally, the technical solutions of the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but only on the basis of being achievable by those skilled in the art. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or impossible to implement, such a combination of technical solutions should be considered non-existent and not within the scope of protection claimed in this application.

[0020] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 7 and Figure 12 As shown, the present invention provides an assembly device for server racks, used for the automated assembly of large server racks (such as server racks, power supply racks, etc.). The assembly device includes a gantry crane 1, a mechanical manual assembly 2, and a clamping stand 3.

[0021] A gantry crane 1 is positioned on the front of the cabinet and is used to transport material 4 from the material stack to the transfer table 13. A mechanical manual assembly 2 is positioned between the gantry crane 1 and the cabinet and is used to pick up material 4 from the transfer table and transport material 4 into the cabinet for installation. A clamping stand 3 is positioned on the back of the cabinet and is used to clamp the cabinet from the back during assembly to maintain the stability of the cabinet during the assembly process and prevent the cabinet from shaking or shifting due to the pushing action of the mechanical manual assembly 2.

[0022] The gantry crane boom 1, the mechanical manual assembly 2, and the clamping frame 3 work together to automate the entire process of material loading 4, handling, cabinet installation, and cabinet fixing during the large cabinet assembly process.

[0023] Specific structure of the gantry crane boom like Figures 2 to 6 As shown, the gantry crane boom 1 includes a gantry support 11, a three-axis platform 12, a material transfer table 13, and a gripping mechanism 14.

[0024] The gantry support 11 is located on the front of the cabinet, providing support for the gantry crane arm 1. The transfer table 13 is located on the front of the cabinet, below the gantry support 11, and is used to temporarily place the material 4 to be installed, for the mechanical manual loading 2 to retrieve. A three-axis platform 12 is mounted on the gantry support 11, and a gripping mechanism 14 is mounted on the three-axis platform 12. The three-axis platform 12 drives the gripping mechanism 14 to move along the X, Y, and Z axes. The gripping mechanism 14 grips the material 4 and transports it to the transfer table 13.

[0025] The gantry support 11 has a gate-shaped structure, meaning that when viewed from the side, the gantry support 11 forms a shape similar to a door frame, with support columns on both sides and a main beam 112 connected to the top of the support columns. The gantry support 11 has a channel 114 extending through it along the X-axis. The channel 114 is the space area below the gantry support 11, used for storing materials 4 and pallets, transferring materials 4, and for external equipment to retrieve materials. The channel 114 is divided into three sections: a loading section 1141 for placing material stacks, a transfer section 1142 for placing the transfer platform 13, and a recycling section 1143 for recovering the stacked structure. The transfer section 1142 is where the transfer platform 13 is placed or installed, and it is also the section used to transfer materials 4 to the outside. The transfer section 1142 is located at the middle gap of the gate structure. The top of the transfer section 1142 and both sides in the X-axis direction and the Y-axis direction are open through, which facilitates the arrangement of the transfer platform 13 and the feeding operation of the gripping mechanism 14 in the transfer section 1142. It also facilitates external equipment, such as the robot arm 2, to grip and transfer the material 4 from both sides in the Y-axis direction.

[0026] The external equipment can be a feeding robot of the aging test equipment, a feeding conveyor belt, or an AGV (Automated Guided Vehicle). The external equipment extends into the side notch of the transfer section 1142 to take away the product transferred by the gripping mechanism 14, or to put the product to be processed into the transfer section 1142 and have it taken away by the gripping mechanism 14.

[0027] like Figure 3As shown, the gantry support 11 includes eight uprights 111, two main beams 112, and two crossbars 113. The eight uprights 111 are vertically mounted on the ground to support the main beams 112 and crossbars 113. Casters or anchor bolts can be installed at the bottom of the uprights 111 to facilitate movement or fixation of the equipment. The two main beams 112 extend along the X-axis and are arranged side-by-side on both sides above the channel 114. Four uprights 111 are located at the four corners of the loading section 1141 to support the front ends of the left and right main beams 112 located above the loading section 1141. The other four uprights 111 are located at the four corners of the recycling section 1143 to support the rear ends of the left and right main beams 112 located above the recycling section 1143. Each column 111 is connected to a main beam 112 at its top, meaning the top of each column 111 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the corresponding main beam 112, thus supporting the main beam 112 at a predetermined height. Two horizontal bars 113 are respectively installed at both ends of the gantry support 11, extending along the Y-axis. In one embodiment, the two horizontal bars 113 are respectively connected to the ends of the two main beams 112, forming a rectangular frame together with the main beams 112, enhancing the overall rigidity and stability of the gantry support 11. In another embodiment, the two horizontal bars 113 are respectively connected to the upper ends of the two outermost columns 111, meaning one horizontal bar 113 connects to the upper ends of the two columns 111 located at the left front corner and right front corner, and the other horizontal bar 113 connects to the upper ends of the two columns 111 located at the left rear corner and right rear corner. The horizontal bars 113 are fixedly connected to the upper ends of the columns 111, also serving to reinforce the gantry support 11.

[0028] The loading section 1141 and the recycling section 1143 are equipped with limiting mechanisms 15 for defining the position of the pallets. The limiting mechanisms 15 are located on the bottom platforms of the loading section 1141 and the recycling section 1143, and are used to position stacked material piles or empty pallets to prevent movement or displacement during the material handling process of the gripping mechanism 14. The limiting mechanism 15 includes three limiting strips 151, which are arranged on both sides and the inner side of the corresponding area. Specifically, based on the corresponding area (loading section 1141 or recycling section 1143), the three limiting strips 151 are located on the left, right, and rear sides (i.e., the inner side, the side closer to the transfer section 1142) of that area, forming a "U"-shaped or "U"-shaped positioning frame. The left, right, and rear sides of the pallet abut against the three limiting strips 151, thereby completely defining the position of the pallet in the horizontal plane. The three limiting strips 151 ensure accurate positioning while retaining an opening at the front (outer side), facilitating the pallet's insertion from the front of the loading section 1141 or removal from the front of the recycling section 1143. The limiting strips 151 have an L-shaped cross-section, comprising a horizontal portion and a vertical portion. The horizontal portion is fixed to the bottom platform, and the vertical portion extends upwards from the edge of the horizontal portion. The L-shaped cross-section of the limiting strips 151 provides good structural strength and bending resistance. Furthermore, the inner surface of the vertical portion is a vertical plane, allowing it to form surface contact with the side of the pallet, providing a stable and reliable limiting effect and preventing damage or skewing of the pallet due to point contact during the limiting process. Additionally, the limiting strips 151 located on both sides of the corresponding area have a guide bevel or chamfer at their outer ends, allowing the pallet to slide smoothly into the limiting mechanism 15 upon insertion, preventing the pallet edge from jamming with the end of the limiting strip 151.

[0029] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the three-axis platform 12 includes an X-axis assembly 123, a Y-axis assembly 122, and a Z-axis assembly 121. The X-axis assembly 123 is mounted on the main beam 112 of the gantry frame 11 and is used to drive the gripping mechanism 14 to move along the X-axis direction. The Y-axis assembly 122 is mounted on the X-axis assembly 123 and is used to drive the gripping mechanism 14 to move along the Y-axis direction. The Z-axis assembly 121 is mounted on the Y-axis assembly 122 and is used to drive the gripping mechanism 14 to move up and down along the Z-axis direction.

[0030] The X-axis assembly 123 includes two X-axis guide rails, an X-axis rack, an X-axis slider, and an X-axis drive mechanism. The two X-axis guide rails are respectively laid on the two main beams 112 of the gantry frame 11 along the X-axis direction. The X-axis rack is laid on one of the main beams 112 of the gantry frame 11 along the X-axis direction and parallel to the X-axis guide rails. The X-axis slider is slidably mounted on the X-axis guide rails. The X-axis drive mechanism is mounted on the beam frame 1221 of the Y-axis assembly 122 and is driven by the X-axis rack. When the X-axis drive mechanism is activated, it drives the Y-axis assembly 122 to slide along the X-axis guide rails, thereby realizing the movement of the entire Y-axis assembly 122 and the gripping mechanism 14 in the X-axis direction.

[0031] As shown in Figure 4, the Y-axis assembly 122 includes a beam frame 1221, a Y-axis slider 1222, a Y-axis guide rail 1223, a Y-axis rack 1224, a Y-axis drive mechanism 1225, and a support plate 1226. The beam frame 1221 spans across the gantry support 11, that is, the beam frame 1221 extends along the Y-axis direction, with its two ends respectively supporting the two sides of the gantry support 11, and the bottom of the beam frame 1221 is fixedly connected to the X-axis slider of the X-axis assembly 123, so that the beam frame 1221 can move along the X-axis direction with the X-axis assembly 123. Y-axis guide rail 1223 is mounted on beam frame 1221 along the Y-axis direction. Y-axis slider 1222 is slidably mounted on Y-axis guide rail 1223. Bearing plate 1226 is mounted on Y-axis slider 1222. Y-axis rack 1224 is mounted on beam frame 1221 along the Y-axis direction. Y-axis drive mechanism 1225 is mounted on bearing plate 1226 and drivenly connected to Y-axis rack 1224. When Y-axis drive mechanism 1225 is activated, its output component (such as drive gear) rotates, driving bearing plate 1226 to slide along Y-axis guide rail 1223 through meshing with Y-axis rack 1224. There are two Y-axis guide rails 1223, located on opposite sides of beam frame 1221 along the Y-axis direction. Each Y-axis guide rail 1223 is equipped with at least one Y-axis slider 1222. The support plate 1226 spans across the top of the beam frame 1221. Its left side is fixed to the left Y-axis slider 1222, and its right side is fixed to the right Y-axis slider 1222, so that the left and right sides of the support plate 1226 slide synchronously when moving in the Y-axis direction, and the force is evenly distributed. The beam frame 1221 has a hollow area extending along the Y-axis in the middle, which is used to avoid the movement of the Z-axis assembly 121 along the Y-axis direction.

[0032] The beam frame 1221 includes two first Y-axis connecting rods, one second Y-axis connecting rod and two X-axis connecting rods. The two first Y-axis connecting rods are arranged side by side along the X-axis direction, the two X-axis connecting rods are disposed between the two first Y-axis connecting rods, and the second Y-axis connecting rod is disposed between the two X-axis connecting rods. As can be seen from the above structure, the two first Y-axis connecting rods, the one second Y-axis connecting rod and the two X-axis connecting rods collectively form a "shape of the Chinese character 'mu'" frame structure. The two Y-axis guide rails 1223 are respectively disposed on the two first Y-axis connecting rods. The two first Y-axis connecting rods, the second Y-axis connecting rod and the two X-axis connecting rods are all hollow square steel tubes or aluminum profiles, so as to reduce the overall weight of the beam frame 1221 and ensure the structural strength. All the connecting rods are fixedly connected by welding or bolts to form an integrated frame structure.

[0033] As shown in Figure 5 , the Z-axis assembly 121 includes a Z-axis profile 1211, a mounting structure 1212, a Z-axis rack 1213 and a Z-axis drive mechanism 1214. The mounting structure 1212 is disposed on the bearing plate 1226 of the Y-axis assembly 122, that is, the mounting structure 1212 serves as a connecting component between the Z-axis assembly 121 and the Y-axis assembly 122, and moves together with the Y-axis assembly 122 along the Y-axis direction. The Z-axis profile 1211 extends along the Z-axis direction (vertical direction), and the Z-axis profile 1211 is in sliding fit with the mounting structure 1212, so that the Z-axis profile 1211 can slide up and down along the Z-axis direction relative to the mounting structure 1212. The Z-axis rack 1213 is disposed on the Z-axis profile 1211 along the Z-axis direction, that is, the length direction of the Z-axis rack 1213 is consistent with the length direction of the Z-axis profile 1211. The Z-axis drive mechanism 1214 is disposed on the mounting structure 1212 and is in driving connection with the Z-axis rack 1213. When the Z-axis drive mechanism 1214 is started, its output component (such as a drive gear) rotates, and through meshing with the Z-axis rack 1213, the rotational motion is converted into the linear lifting motion of the Z-axis profile 1211. Since the Z-axis profile 1211 and the mounting structure 1212 are in sliding fit, the Z-axis profile 1211 is guided and constrained by the mounting structure 1212 during the lifting process, which ensures the linearity and stability of the lifting motion. The bottom of the Z-axis profile 1211 is fixedly connected to the mounting table 141 of the grabbing mechanism 14, so when the Z-axis profile 1211 lifts, it drives the grabbing mechanism 14 to lift synchronously, realizing the operations of lifting up and putting down the product.

[0034] The Z-axis drive mechanism 1214 is a combination of a servo motor and a reducer. The servo motor has the advantages of fast response and high control precision, while the reducer can increase the output torque, ensuring that the Z-axis profile 1211 can still rise and fall smoothly when carrying heavy products. Alternatively, the Z-axis drive mechanism 1214 can also be a stepper motor. Stepper motors are low-cost and simple to control, making them suitable for applications with lighter loads. In another embodiment, the Z-axis profile 1211 is a hollow aluminum profile to reduce weight while ensuring sufficient structural strength. The Z-axis rack 1213 is embedded in a groove on the side of the Z-axis profile 1211, making the overall structure more compact.

[0035] The mounting structure 1212 includes four side plates, which are connected end-to-end to form a rectangular sleeve. A Z-axis profile 1211 passes through the internal cavity of the rectangular sleeve, meaning the Z-axis profile 1211 extends through the rectangular sleeve along the Z-axis direction. The Z-axis profile 1211 slides within two opposing side plates, allowing it to slide freely along the Z-axis direction within the rectangular sleeve. Simultaneously, the sleeve wall limits the Z-axis profile 1211 in the X and Y axes, preventing it from wobbling or shaking. A Z-axis drive mechanism 1214 is mounted on one of the side plates, meaning it is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the rectangular sleeve. The output component of the Z-axis drive mechanism 1214 extends through this side plate into the rectangular sleeve, enabling it to mesh with a Z-axis rack 1213 located inside the rectangular sleeve.

[0036] Furthermore, in the specific implementation of the sliding fit between the Z-axis profile 1211 and the two opposing side plates, the Z-axis profile 1211 is provided with a Z-axis guide rail 1215, and the inner walls of the two opposing side plates are provided with Z-axis sliders 1216. The Z-axis sliders 1216 are slidably mounted on the Z-axis guide rails 1215, thereby achieving the sliding fit between the Z-axis profile 1211 and the side plates. Specifically, there are two Z-axis guide rails 1215, respectively provided on the two opposite outer surfaces of the Z-axis profile 1211, with each outer surface extending along the Z-axis direction. Each of the two opposing side plates has a set of Z-axis sliders 1216 fixed to its inner wall. Each set of Z-axis sliders 1216 consists of two or more sliders, spaced apart along the Z-axis direction to ensure guide length and stability. The Z-axis sliders 1216 are provided with grooves that fit the shape of the Z-axis guide rails 1215, allowing the Z-axis guide rails 1215 to be embedded in and slide along the grooves.

[0037] The support plate 1226 has a through hole for the Z-axis profile 1211 to pass through. The through hole is located above the hollow area, and its opening size is adapted to the opening size of the hollow area, allowing the Z-axis profile 1211 to pass through the through hole and the hollow area sequentially. A rectangular sleeve is arranged around the through hole, that is, the rectangular sleeve is fixed to the upper surface of the support plate 1226 and is concentric with the through hole. After passing through the rectangular sleeve, the Z-axis profile 1211 continues to pass through the through hole and the hollow area, extending downward to the gripping mechanism 14. As part of the mounting structure 1212, the rectangular sleeve provides guidance for the lifting and lowering of the Z-axis profile 1211 and transmits the lifting and lowering motion of the Z-axis profile 1211 to the support plate 1226. The structural design of the rectangular sleeve makes the mounting structure 1212 compact and rigid, effectively withstanding the bending moment and torque generated by the Z-axis profile 1211 during lifting and lowering, ensuring the operating accuracy and stability of the Z-axis assembly 121, while simplifying the manufacturing process.

[0038] like Figure 6 As shown, the gripping mechanism 14 includes a mounting platform 141, a rotating plate 142, a rotary drive mechanism 143, and several suction cup mechanisms 144. The mounting platform 141 is located at the bottom of the three-axis platform 12 (specifically at the bottom of the Z-axis profile 1211) and serves as the mounting base for the gripping mechanism 14. The rotating plate 142 is rotatably mounted on the bottom of the mounting platform 141 and can rotate relative to the mounting platform 141 in the horizontal plane. The rotary drive mechanism 143 is mounted on the mounting platform 141 and is drivenly connected to the rotating plate 142 to drive the rotating plate 142 to rotate around the vertical axis to a preset angle, thereby adjusting the orientation of the gripped product to adapt to the receiving angle of the transfer table 13 or external equipment. The rotary drive mechanism 143 is a stepper motor or a servo motor, and the output shaft of the motor is directly fixedly connected to the rotating plate 142. When the motor rotates, it drives the rotating plate 142 to rotate synchronously. In another embodiment, the rotary drive mechanism 143 includes a motor and a reducer. The output shaft of the motor is connected to the input end of the reducer, and the output end of the reducer is connected to the rotating plate 142. The reducer increases the output torque, enabling the rotating plate 142 to smoothly support heavier products.

[0039] A suction cup mechanism 144 is disposed at the bottom of the rotating plate 142 for gripping products. Multiple suction cup mechanisms 144 are arranged in an array at the bottom of the rotating plate 142 to stably adsorb products with a large adsorption area. In another embodiment, the suction cup mechanisms 144 are arranged in a straight line, suitable for adsorbing long and narrow products. In yet another embodiment, six or eight suction cup mechanisms 144 are arranged in a ring or matrix, suitable for adsorbing heavy or irregularly shaped products. The suction cup mechanism 144 can be a vacuum suction cup, using a vacuum generator or vacuum pump to provide negative pressure, causing the suction cup to adhere tightly to the upper surface of the product, thus achieving product gripping.

[0040] When the gantry crane arm 1 is working, the three-axis platform 12 drives the gripping mechanism 14 to move along the X-axis to above the loading section 1141, and then descends along the Z-axis, so that the suction cup mechanism 144 contacts the surface of the top layer of the material stack. The vacuum system is activated to allow the suction cup to adsorb the product. Subsequently, the three-axis platform 12 drives the gripping mechanism 14 to rise and move along the X-axis to the transfer section 1142. During the movement, the rotary drive mechanism 143 can drive the rotating plate 142 to rotate to a preset angle as needed to adjust the orientation of the product to adapt to the receiving angle of the transfer table 13. After reaching the transfer section 1142, the gripping mechanism 14 places the product on the transfer table 13 for mechanical manual loading 2 to pick up. The three-axis platform 12 can also drive the gripping mechanism 14 to grab empty pallets and other stacking structures and move them to the recycling section 1143 for recycling and stacking. Through the above process, the integrated operation of loading, transfer, and recycling within the same channel 114 is realized, improving the automation level and space utilization of the production line.

[0041] Regarding the specific structure of the mechanical manual assembly like Figure 7 As shown, the mechanical manual assembly 2 includes a handling platform 21 and a clamp 22.

[0042] The transport platform 21 is positioned between the gantry crane boom 1 and the cabinet. The transport platform 21 is a multi-axis robot or multi-axis platform, providing multi-degree-of-freedom spatial motion. It can adjust the spatial position and orientation of the clamp 22, aligning it with the material 4 on the transfer table 13 or the installation position inside the cabinet. The transport platform 21 can be a six-axis robot or a three- or four-axis motion platform, with a flange or mounting plate at its end. The frame 221 is bolted to the transport platform 21.

[0043] like Figure 8 As shown, the clamp 22 includes a frame 221, a clamping assembly 222, and a traction assembly 223. The frame 221 is mounted on the transport platform 21 (specifically, it is mounted on the execution end of the transport platform 21, such as a flange or mounting plate). The frame 221 has a through-flow conveying channel 2211, with the front end of the conveying channel 2211 serving as the inlet and outlet for the material 4. The frame 221 can be a rectangular metal frame, made of aluminum profiles or steel plates, etc. The front end of the conveying channel 2211 may also be provided with a guide ramp or flare to facilitate the entry of the material 4 into the conveying channel 2211.

[0044] like Figure 9As shown, the clamping assembly 222 includes a clamping drive 2221, a clamping transmission mechanism 2222, and two clamping mechanisms 2223. The two clamping mechanisms 2223 are respectively disposed on both sides of the front end of the conveying channel 2211 and can slide towards the middle along the width direction of the conveying channel 2211. The clamping drive 2221 and the clamping transmission mechanism 2222 are disposed on the frame 221. The middle part of the clamping transmission mechanism 2222 is connected to the clamping drive 2221, and the clamping transmission mechanism 2222 extends to both sides of the frame 221 and is respectively connected to the two clamping mechanisms 2223, for driving the two clamping mechanisms 2223 to clamp and position the material 4 in the conveying channel 2211. The clamping drive unit 2221 transmits power simultaneously to the clamping mechanisms 2223 on both sides via the clamping transmission mechanism 2222. When the two clamping mechanisms 2223 move towards each other along the width of the conveying channel 2211, they apply clamping force to both sides of the material 4 entering the front end of the conveying channel 2211, thereby clamping and positioning the material 4 and ensuring the stability of the material 4 during handling and cabinet placement. The clamping mechanisms 2223 can be symmetrically arranged on both sides of the conveying channel 2211. The clamping transmission mechanism 2222 is connected to the clamping drive unit 2221 in the middle and extends to both sides, so that the power is synchronously transmitted to the clamping mechanisms 2223 on both sides, ensuring that the two clamping mechanisms 2223 move synchronously and preventing the material 4 from shifting.

[0045] The clamping transmission mechanism 2222 includes two sets of lead screw mechanisms, each extending to both sides with opposite thread directions. The two sets of lead screw mechanisms are connected to two clamping mechanisms 2223 respectively. A clamping drive unit 2221 is simultaneously connected to both sets of lead screw mechanisms. Specifically, each lead screw mechanism includes a lead screw and a nut, with the nut connected to the clamping mechanism 2223. The clamping drive unit 2221 is simultaneously connected to both lead screws via a pulley set or gear set, driving the two lead screws to rotate synchronously. Since the two lead screws have opposite thread directions, when the clamping drive unit 2221 simultaneously drives the two lead screws to rotate in the same direction, the two nuts move in opposite directions, thereby causing the two clamping mechanisms 2223 to move towards or away from each other, achieving synchronous clamping or releasing. As an alternative, the clamping transmission mechanism 2222 includes a single lead screw and two nuts. The two ends of the lead screw have threads with opposite directions of rotation. The two nuts respectively engage with the threads at both ends of the lead screw. The clamping drive 2221 is driven and connected to the middle of the lead screw. The single lead screw with reverse threads at both ends can also achieve synchronous clamping, resulting in a more compact structure. The clamping drive 2221 can be a servo motor, stepper motor, etc., capable of precisely controlling the clamping force or clamping position. The clamping transmission mechanism 2222 can also be equipped with a travel limit device to prevent the clamping mechanism 2223 from overtraveling.

[0046] like Figure 9 , Figure 10As shown, the clamping assembly 222 also includes a side roller mechanism 2224. The side roller mechanism 2224 is disposed on the inner side of the clamping mechanism 2223 and moves with the clamping mechanism 2223, for rolling contact with the side of the material 4 in the conveying channel 2211. The side roller mechanism 2224 converts the sliding friction during the clamping process into rolling friction, reducing wear and scratches on the surface of the material 4, and reducing the resistance of the clamping mechanism 2223 to the side wall of the material 4, so that the material 4 can still move smoothly along the length direction when being pulled in the conveying channel 2211. The side roller mechanism 2224 can also limit and guide the side of the material 4 to prevent the material 4 from swinging left and right during the pulling process. The inner side of the clamping mechanism 2223 is provided with a receiving groove 22231 and an assembly through hole 22232 disposed at the bottom of the receiving groove 22231 and extending to the outer side of the clamping mechanism 2223. The side roller mechanism 2224 includes a telescopic mechanism and a side roller assembly. The telescopic mechanism is located on the outer side of the clamping mechanism 2223 and extends through the mounting through-hole 22232 to the inner side of the clamping mechanism 2223. The side roller assembly is located at the inner end of the telescopic mechanism. When the telescopic mechanism retracts, the side roller assembly can be accommodated in the receiving groove 22231, avoiding occupying the space of the conveying channel 2211 or interfering with the material 4 when lateral rolling contact is not required. The telescopic mechanism can be a cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder, an electric push rod, or a lead screw linear module. The side roller assembly can include a roller frame and one or more rollers. The roller frame is located at the output end of the telescopic mechanism, and the rollers are rotatably mounted on the roller frame. The roller axis can be vertically arranged along the height direction. When multiple rollers are present, the multiple rollers are arranged on the roller frame along the length direction of the conveying channel 2211. The depth of the receiving groove 22231 should be greater than or equal to the thickness of the side roller assembly, so that the side roller assembly does not protrude from the inner surface of the clamping mechanism 2223 when retracted. The roller is mounted on the roller frame via pins or bearings and can rotate freely. The outer layer of the roller can be fitted with a cushioning layer such as rubber or polyurethane to prevent damage to the surface of the material 4. The side roller mechanism 2224 can move as a whole with the clamping mechanism 2223 to accommodate materials 4 of different widths.

[0047] like Figure 10As shown, the clamping assembly 222 also includes a second guide mechanism 2225. The second guide mechanism 2225 includes a first guide rail and a first slider. The first guide rail is disposed on the top of the frame 221, and the first slider is disposed on the first guide rail. The two clamping mechanisms 2223 are slidably connected to the first guide rail through their corresponding first sliders. The first guide rail extends along the width direction of the conveying channel 2211, providing linear guidance for the two clamping mechanisms 2223, ensuring smooth and precise movement of the clamping mechanisms 2223 and preventing skewing or jamming due to uneven force. Two sets of second guide mechanisms 2225 can be provided, each corresponding to one of the two clamping mechanisms 2223, or they can share a single first guide rail, with the two first sliders sliding independently. The first slider is fixedly connected to the top of the clamping mechanism 2223. To improve rigidity, four sets of second guide mechanisms 2225 can also be provided on the top of the frame 221, with each clamping mechanism 2223 guided by two sets of second guide mechanisms 2225, making the movement of the clamping mechanism 2223 even smoother.

[0048] A traction assembly 223 is disposed at the rear end of the conveying channel 2211 and is used to grab material 4 from the rear end of the conveying channel 2211 and pull material 4 along the conveying channel 2211 to enter and exit the conveying channel 2211. The traction assembly 223 includes a moving platform 2231 and a claw mechanism 2232. The claw mechanism 2232 is disposed on the moving platform 2231 for grabbing material 4. The moving platform 2231 is disposed on the frame 221 and extends along the length direction of the conveying channel 2211, and is used to drive the claw mechanism 2232 to move along the length direction of the conveying channel 2211. The moving platform 2231 can be a linear module, a synchronous belt type linear module, a lead screw slide, a gear and rack mechanism, or a cylinder, etc., driven by a motor. The claw mechanism 2232 is mounted on the slide of the moving platform 2231. The moving platform 2231 is disposed along the top or side of the frame 221, and its stroke covers at least the area between the front and rear ends of the conveying channel 2211. The mobile platform 2231 may include a motor, guide rails, a synchronous belt, and a slide, with the slide connected to the claw bracket 22321. The mobile platform 2231 can be positioned on top of the frame 221, or on the bottom or side of the frame 221, as long as it does not interfere with the movement of the material 4 within the conveying channel 2211. To increase stroke and rigidity, the mobile platform 2231 may employ a double guide rail structure. The motor drives the lead screw to rotate via a coupling, and the slide moves along the guide rail under the influence of the lead screw nut. During operation, the mobile platform 2231 drives the claw mechanism 2232 forward to the material 4, where the claw mechanism 2232 grasps the material 4, and the mobile platform 2231 then moves backward to pull the material 4 into the conveying channel 2211; alternatively, the claw mechanism 2232 grasps the material 4 within the conveying channel 2211, and the mobile platform 2231 moves forward to push the material 4 out of the front end of the conveying channel 2211 and into the cabinet.

[0049] like Figure 11As shown, the claw mechanism 2232 includes a claw support 22321, a claw drive component 22322, a claw transmission mechanism 22323, a first guide mechanism 22324, and two claws 22325. The claw support 22321 is mounted on the moving platform 2231. The first guide mechanism 22324 is mounted on the claw support 22321 and extends along the width of the conveying channel 2211. The two claws 22325 are positioned opposite each other on the first guide mechanism 22324. The claw transmission mechanism 22323 is mounted on the claw support 22321 and connected to the two claws 22325 to drive them to move towards or away from each other. The claw drive component 22322 is mounted on the claw support 22321 and connected to the claw transmission mechanism 22323. The claw drive component 22322 can be a servo motor, stepper motor, pneumatic motor, etc. The first guiding mechanism 22324 may include a guide rod or guide rail extending along the width direction, and two claws 22325 are slidably engaged with the first guiding mechanism 22324 via sliders or linear bearings. The claw bracket 22321 may be made of bent metal plates or assembled from profiles and is fixed to the slide of the moving platform 2231. The claw transmission mechanism 22323 may be located in the middle of the claw bracket 22321 to ensure even power distribution on both sides.

[0050] In some preferred embodiments, the claw transmission mechanism 22323 includes two sets of pulleys. The driving pulleys of both sets of pulleys are located in the middle of the claw support 22321, and the driven pulleys of the two sets of pulleys are located on opposite sides of the claw support 22321. The two sets of pulleys transmit power through corresponding belts. The output shaft of the claw drive 22322 passes through both driving pulleys. Of the two claws 22325, one claw 22325 is connected to the upper edge of the belt in one set of pulleys, and the other claw 22325 is connected to the lower edge of the belt in the other set of pulleys. Thus, the belts of the two sets of pulleys move in the same direction, and the two claws 22325 can move towards and away from each other. When the output shaft of the claw drive 22322 rotates clockwise, the two claws 22325 move towards each other; when the output shaft of the claw drive 22322 rotates counterclockwise, the two claws 22325 move away from each other.

[0051] The working principle of the above structure is as follows: the output shaft of the claw drive 22322 simultaneously drives two drive wheels to rotate, and the two drive wheels drive the belts on both sides to rotate synchronously. Since one claw 22325 is connected to the upper side of one set of belts and the other claw 22325 is connected to the lower side of another set of belts, when the two sets of belts rotate in the same direction, the linear motion directions of the upper and lower sides are opposite. Therefore, the two claws 22325 move towards or away from each other along the first guide mechanism 22324. They move towards each other when rotating forward and away from each other when rotating backward.

[0052] Specifically, a pulley assembly includes a driving pulley, a driven pulley, and a belt. A tensioner can also be added to adjust the belt tension. The belt can be a synchronous belt, with the driving and driven pulleys being synchronous pulleys to ensure transmission accuracy. The two driving pulleys are coaxially mounted on the output shaft of the claw drive 22322 and can be connected via a key or a shrink sleeve. The connection between the two claws 22325 and the belt is achieved by a pressure plate that fixes the upper or lower edge of the belt to the corresponding claw 22325, allowing the belt to move and drive the claws 22325. The first guide mechanism 22324 guides the claws 22325, preventing swaying caused by belt drive. This structure is compact, has good synchronization, and can achieve stable gripping.

[0053] The claw 22325 includes a connecting part and an outwardly extending hook. The connecting part is disposed on the first guide mechanism 22324. The end of the hook is provided with a hook groove 2238 facing away from the center of the two claws 22325, for hooking the handle 41 of the material 4. The hook extends outwardly so that the hook groove 2238 is located on the outer side of the connecting part, making it easy to hook the handle 41 from the inside. When gripping, the claw drive 22322 drives the two claws 22325 to move towards each other through the claw transmission mechanism 22323, reducing their width, and then extending into the area between the two handles 41. Then, the two claws 22325 move away from each other, and the two hook grooves 2238 move outward and fit onto the handle 41, completing the gripping. When releasing, the two claws 22325 move towards each other, the hook grooves 2238 disengage from the handle 41, and the moving platform 2231 retracts, causing the claw mechanism 2232 to exit the area between the two handles 41.

[0054] The bottom of frame 221 is equipped with a lower roller assembly 2212, which includes multiple lower rollers arranged side-by-side in a straight line at the bottom of frame 221 to support material 4 within conveying channel 2211. After material 4 enters conveying channel 2211, its bottom rests on the lower roller assembly 2212 and is supported by the multiple lower rollers. The lower rollers can rotate freely around their own axes, converting the sliding friction between the bottom of material 4 and frame 221 into rolling friction, reducing traction resistance, preventing scratches on the bottom surface of material 4, and allowing material 4 to move smoothly back and forth along conveying channel 2211 under the action of traction component 223. The lower roller assembly 2212 also supports and limits the bottom of material 4, cooperating with the clamping mechanisms 2223 on both sides to achieve a stable posture of material 4 within conveying channel 2211. The outer surface of the lower rollers can be covered with cushioning materials such as rubber or plastic to prevent damage to the bottom surface of material 4. The lower roller assembly 2212 and the side roller mechanism 2224 together provide rolling support and guidance for the material 4, making the material 4 move more smoothly in the conveying channel 2211.

[0055] The frame 221 also includes a sub-frame 2213 suspended from the top. The sub-frame 2213 and the top of the frame 221 form a two-layer installation structure. Specifically, the sub-frame 2213 is elongated and arranged along the central axis of the top of the frame 221. By setting the sub-frame 2213, a layered installation structure is formed, providing more installation space. The mobile platform 2231 is set on the sub-frame 2213, and the second guide mechanism 2225 is set on the top of the frame 221. Thus, the mobile platform 2231 and the second guide mechanism 2225 are installed in layers, and the two are installed independently without interfering with each other.

[0056] The mechanical manual assembly 2 also includes a camera assembly, which is mounted on frame 221 and faces the front of frame 221 to identify material 4 or the assembly position. The camera assembly is connected to the control system of the transport platform 21, feeding back positional deviations to the transport platform 21. The transport platform 21 adjusts the position and orientation of the fixture 22 based on the feedback, aligning the conveyor channel 2211 with the material 4 or the installation position within the cabinet, further improving the accuracy of handling and assembly. The camera assembly may include an industrial camera, lens, light source, etc. The camera assembly can be fixed to the top or side of the front of frame 221 by a bracket, and one or more can be installed to cover the area in front of the conveyor channel 2211. The light source can be a ring light source or a strip light source to provide stable illumination for visual recognition. The vision algorithm can be integrated into the control system of the transport platform 21 or an external industrial control computer to achieve positioning guidance and assembly inspection.

[0057] Specific structure of the clamping stand like Figure 12 , 13 As shown, the clamping stand 3 is located on the back of the cabinet and is used to clamp the cabinet from the back to maintain the stability of the cabinet during assembly.

[0058] The clamping stand 3 includes a base 31, a Y-axis feed platform 32, a support frame 33, and a clamping assembly 34. The base 31 is set on the ground, providing a supporting foundation for the clamping stand 3. The Y-axis feed platform 32 is set on the base 31, and the support frame 33 is set on the Y-axis feed platform 32. The Y-axis feed platform 32 drives the support frame 33 to move closer to or away from the cabinet along the Y-axis direction. The Y-axis feed platform 32 can be a linear module, a lead screw slide, or a cylinder, etc., driven by a motor or pneumatics, enabling the clamping stand 3 to adapt to cabinets at different depths.

[0059] like Figure 13As shown, the clamping assembly 34 is mounted on the support frame 33 and is used to clamp the cabinet. The clamping assembly 34 includes a clamping bracket 341, a clamping drive mechanism 342, and two sets of clamping plate mechanisms 343. The clamping bracket 341 is mounted on the support frame 33 and extends along the width direction (i.e., the X-axis direction) of the support frame 33. The two sets of clamping plate mechanisms 343 are slidably mounted on the clamping bracket 341. The clamping drive mechanism 342 is simultaneously connected to the two sets of clamping plate mechanisms 343 to drive the two sets of clamping plate mechanisms 343 to perform clamping actions, that is, the two sets of clamping plate mechanisms 343 move towards each other along the X-axis direction to clamp the back sides of the cabinet, or move away from each other to release the cabinet.

[0060] The clamping drive mechanism 342 is a power mechanism that outputs power synchronously to both sides. It can be a single power element or a dual power element, and more importantly, it has a transmission mechanism capable of outputting power to both sides. Specifically, the transmission mechanism can be a rack, lead screw, or synchronous pulley set extending in the X-axis direction. If it is a single power element, a gear, coupling, or output shaft can be set at the output end to drive the rack, lead screw, and two sets of synchronous pulley sets respectively.

[0061] In a specific embodiment of the rack and pinion drive with a single power element, the clamping drive mechanism 342 includes a motor and two racks. The motor is located in the middle of the clamping bracket 341, and a gear is provided at the output end of the motor. The two racks are respectively arranged on both sides of the gear and extend to both sides along the X-axis. The two racks are fixedly connected to two sets of clamping plate mechanisms 343. Thus, when the motor starts, it drives the two racks to move in opposite directions simultaneously through the gear. The two racks drive the two sets of clamping plate mechanisms 343 to move towards or away from each other, thereby realizing the clamping or releasing action.

[0062] Two sets of clamping mechanisms 343 are slidably mounted on the clamping bracket 341. Specifically, the clamping mechanism 343 can be directly slidably engaged with the clamping bracket 341 through the guide rail slider, or the rack can be slidably engaged with the clamping bracket 341 through the guide rail slider, and the clamping mechanism 343 can be fixedly connected to the rack, thereby achieving smooth sliding of the clamping mechanism 343.

[0063] When the large cabinet assembly equipment is working, the Y-axis feed platform 32 of the clamping stand 3 first moves the support frame 33 and the clamping assembly 34 along the Y-axis to a position close to the back of the cabinet. The clamping drive mechanism 342 drives the two sets of clamping plate mechanisms 343 to move towards each other, clamping the cabinet from both sides of the back of the cabinet. This keeps the cabinet stable during the manual installation operation and prevents it from shaking or shifting due to the pushing action. After assembly, the clamping drive mechanism 342 drives the two sets of clamping plate mechanisms 343 to move away from each other to release the cabinet. The Y-axis feed platform 32 then moves the support frame 33 and the clamping assembly 34 backward, completing one assembly cycle.

[0064] The above embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention. Any non-substantial changes and substitutions made by those skilled in the art based on the present invention shall fall within the scope of protection claimed by the present invention.
