DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0015] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0016] like Figure 1 to Figure 2 As shown, the automatic gripping mechanism for the body-in-white top cover includes a mounting frame 2 and a sliding mechanism, wherein the sliding mechanism includes a slide rail 3, and the slide rail 3 is slidably matched with the mounting frame 2, and the mounting frame 2 also includes a plurality of gripping mechanisms arranged at the front end and both sides of the mounting frame 2, a plurality of camera assemblies 42 arranged at both sides of the mounting frame 2, a positioning assembly 8 located at both ends of the mounting frame 2, and a suction cup assembly for adsorbing the top cover, wherein the positioning assembly 8 is provided with a camera assembly 42, and a plurality of the gripping mechanisms are provided with a gripping hook 41, and a top cover is hung on the gripping hook 41, and a plurality of the suction cup assemblies are jointly adsorbed on the top cover for gripping the top cover; an electrical module 21 is installed on the mounting frame 2.

[0017] The camera assembly 42, the grab hook 41 and the electrical module 21 in the present invention are prior art.

[0018] With the above structure, the slide rail 3 and the mounting frame 2 are slidably matched, and the mounting frame 2 is flexibly translated. Several camera components 42 on the mounting frame 2 take photos of the top cover below, detect the top cover and identify which model the top cover is, and accurately position the top cover through the positioning mechanism, and then the suction cup component is used to abut and adsorb the surface of the top cover, and the grab hook 41 of the grabbing mechanism is positioned through the positioning mechanism so that several grab hooks 41 are located in a position where they can grab the top cover. After grabbing and tower top cover, the clamping function can be realized. All operations of this device are controlled by the electrical module 21, including positioning, suction cup component adsorption and other operations. The designed component structures meet the positioning rules, and within the robot load range, meet the clamping force and holding force under working pressure. Through this type of structure, smooth action, no jamming and completion within the beat are achieved. The entire mechanism is automated, without manual participation, and the design is precise, which improves production efficiency and product production quality, and is co-produced, which is conducive to a higher degree of automation, reduces a large amount of manual labor, and improves processing efficiency, greatly improving processing quality.

[0019] Specifically, if Figure 1 to Figure 2 As shown, the installation frame 2 is an aluminum profile frame. By converting the iron profile into an aluminum profile frame, the weight of the installation frame 2 and the weight of the entire device are greatly reduced, making it more convenient for the robot to operate the installation frame 2, which is conducive to simplification and lightness.

[0020] like Figure 1 to Figure 2 As shown, the suction cup assembly includes a vacuum suction cup 5, and the vacuum suction cup 5 is connected to the top cover. The vacuum suction cup 5 is connected to the electrical module 21, and the electrical module 21 can control the vacuum suction cup 5. The vacuum suction cup 5 also has a vacuum inlet 51, a buffer brake release port 52, and a ball lock release port 53.

[0021] like Figure 1 to Figure 2 As shown, the grabbing mechanism is also equipped with a clamping cylinder 6. The clamping cylinder 6 is connected to the grabbing hook 41. By setting the clamping cylinder 6, it is convenient to use the clamping cylinder 6 to make the grabbing hook 41 clamp the top cover when the grabbing hook 41 grabs the top cover, and the structure is stable and the clamping effect is good.

[0022] like Figure 1 to Figure 2 As shown, a robot connector 7 is also installed on the mounting frame 2. By setting the robot connector 7, it can be connected to the robot. When the robot is connected to the robot connector 7, the device can be grabbed and moved to the position of the main line welding tooling. After the top cover is completely placed successfully, the robot leaves and returns to the original position, and the degree of automation is high.

[0023] like Figure 1 to Figure 2As shown, the camera assembly 42 is a camera capable of taking photos to identify the top cover of a vehicle model. By providing a camera capable of taking photos to identify the vehicle model, the type of the top cover of the vehicle model can be accurately identified, which is conducive to improving the working efficiency of the device and improving the working quality of the device.

[0024] It should be noted that all directional indications in the embodiments of the present invention (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.) are only used to explain the relative position relationship, movement status, etc. between the components under a certain specific posture (as shown in the accompanying drawings). If the specific posture changes, the directional indication will also change accordingly.

[0025] In addition, the descriptions of "first", "second", etc. in the present invention are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features. Therefore, the features defined as "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of the features. At the same time, the meaning of "and / or" appearing in the full text is that it includes three schemes. Taking "A and / or B" as an example, it includes scheme A, or scheme B, or a scheme that satisfies both A and B. In addition, the technical solutions between the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but it must be based on the ability of ordinary technicians in this field to implement. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be deemed that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection required by the present invention.
