[0023] In addition, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of the present application described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0024] See also Figure 1 and Figure 4 The auxiliary box opening mechanism 100 of the embodiment of the present application includes a base 10, an air suction component 20 and an air blowing component 30, and the air suction component 20 and the air blowing component 30 are both connected to the base 10. The base 10 is configured to place a box body 61 and a box cover 62 covering the box body 61, and the air suction component 20 is configured to suck air to generate negative pressure so as to adsorb the box body 61 onto the base 10; the air blowing component 30 is configured to blow air into the gap 60a between the box body 61 and the box cover 62, and the gas enters the interior of the box body 61 from the gap 60a to lift the box cover 62 relative to the box body 61, thereby realizing the rapid separation of the box cover 62 from the box body 61 and improving the separation efficiency. Among them, Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 The dashed arrow in the middle indicates the flow direction of the gas.

[0025] For details, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The base 10 has a top surface 10a and a bottom surface 10b that are arranged opposite to each other. When the base 10 is in a normal placement posture, the top surface 10a is located above the bottom surface 10b. The base 10 is provided with a first air intake channel 11 and a first air intake port 12. The first air intake channel 11 is formed inside the base 10, and the first air intake port 12 connects the first air intake channel 11 with the outside.

[0026] The base 10 is also provided with a second air inlet 13, and the first air inlet 12 and the second air inlet 13 are respectively located at two ends of the first air inlet channel 11, wherein the air inlet assembly 20 includes an air inlet pipe 21, and the air inlet pipe 21 is fixedly connected to the base 10 and communicates with the second air inlet 13. The air inlet pipe 21 is used to connect with an external air extraction device, so that the gas on the top surface 10a of the base 10 is sucked into the air extraction device through the first air inlet 12, the first air inlet channel 11, the second air inlet 13 and the air inlet pipe 21. Such a structure, as Figure 3 As shown, when the box body 61 is placed on the top surface 10a of the base 10, the gas between the surface of the bottom of the box body 61 and the top surface 10a can be sucked to generate negative pressure between the box body 61 and the top surface 10a, thereby adsorbing the box body 61 on the base 10.

[0027] In some embodiments, see Figures 1 to 3, the top surface 10a is provided with a placement area 14, and the placement area 14 is configured to place the assembled box body 61 and the box cover 62. Among them, a part of the placement area 14 is recessed toward the bottom surface 10b to form an airway groove 141, and the airway groove 141 is connected to the first air inlet 12, and other non-recessed parts of the placement area 14 form a convex portion 142 relative to the airway groove 141. Through the structure of the above-mentioned airway groove 141, when the box body 61 is in the placement area 14, more areas of gas between the box body 61 and the base 10 can be sucked to form a negative pressure area, thereby enhancing the adsorption effect on the box body 61. In addition, due to the structure of the convex portion 142, the convex portion 142 can support the bottom of the box body 61 during the suction process to prevent the deformation of the bottom of the box body 61. At the same time, the convex portion 142 supports the bottom of the box body 61, which also helps to ensure the smoothness of the airway groove 141.

[0028] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 and Figure 3 The auxiliary box opening mechanism 100 further includes a sealing member 40, which is disposed on the top surface 10a of the base 10 and is disposed around the placement area 14. The sealing member 40 is located between the bottom of the box body 61 and the base 10, so that the gap 60a between the box body 61 and the top surface 10a can be further sealed, thereby ensuring that the placement area 14 can maintain a negative pressure state during inhalation, and the box body 61 is firmly adsorbed on the base 10. The sealing member 40 can be an elastic deformable member such as a rubber ring.

[0029] In some embodiments, see Figures 1 to 3 , an annular groove 15 is provided on the top surface 10a of the base 10, the annular groove 15 is arranged around the placement area 14, and the seal 40 is arranged in the annular groove 15, so as to facilitate the seal 40 to be fixedly assembled on the base 10. Of course, when the top surface 10a is not provided with the annular groove 15, the seal 40 can also be fixed on the top surface 10a by bonding or other methods.

[0030] In some embodiments, see Figure 4 The air blowing assembly 30 includes a first mounting member 31 and a first air blowing pipe 32. The first mounting member 31 is disposed on the base 10. The first air blowing pipe 32 is connected to the first mounting member 31, and the first air blowing pipe 32 is connected to an external air blowing device, so that the external gas is blown toward the gap 60a between the box body 61 and the box cover 62 through the first air blowing pipe 32 and the first mounting member 31, so as to enter the interior of the box body 61 so that the box body 61 and the box cover 62 are separated. The first mounting member 31 is provided with a first air blowing channel 311 and a first air blowing port 312 and a second air blowing port 313 respectively located at the connection of the first air blowing channel 311. The first air blowing pipe 32 is connected to the first air blowing port 312, and the second air blowing port 313 corresponds to the gap 60a between the box body 61 and the box cover 62.

[0031] Specifically, during the blowing process, the external gas enters the first blowing pipe 32, the first blowing port 312, and the first blowing channel 311 in sequence through the blowing device, and then blows toward the gap 60a between the box body 61 and the box cover 62 through the second blowing port 313. The gas enters the interior of the box body 61 along the gap 60a between the box body 61 and the box cover 62, increasing the air pressure inside the box body 61, thereby pushing the box cover 62 upward, and the box cover 62 and the box body 61 can be relatively separated. It is worth noting that in order to facilitate the description of the gas flow process and principle, Figure 4 and Figure 5 The gap 60a between the box body 61 and the box cover 62 shown in the figure is relatively large, but in fact, the gap 60a between the box body 61 and the box cover 62 is relatively small, but the gas can still enter the interior of the box body 61 in the above-mentioned manner.

[0032] In some embodiments, see Figure 4 and Figure 5 The first blowing channel 311 includes a first section 3111 and a second section 3112 that are connected, the first blowing port 312 is connected to the first section 3111, and the second blowing port 313 is connected to the second section 3112, wherein the cross-sectional size of the second section 3112 is smaller than the cross-sectional size of the first section 3111, thereby increasing the gas pressure and flow rate in the second section 3112, so that a high-pressure and high-speed airflow is formed after passing through the second section 3112, and blown from the second blowing port 313 to the gap 60a between the box body 61 and the box cover 62. As an example, the first blowing channel 311 is cylindrical, and the diameter of the second section 3112 is smaller than the diameter of the first section 3111.

[0033] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 5 , the extension direction of the second section 3112 is the same as the direction from the bottom surface 10b of the base 10 toward the top surface 10a, that is, the gas is blown out from the second blowing port 313 perpendicular to the top surface 10a, which facilitates the gas to enter the gap 60a between the box body 61 and the box cover 62. Alternatively, in other embodiments, the extension direction of the second section 3112 is at an angle to the direction from the bottom surface 10b toward the top surface 10a, that is, the second section 3112 is inclined, and the gas can be blown out from the second blowing port 313 inclined to the top surface 10a. Compared with the gas being blown out parallel to the top surface 10a, the vertical blowing and inclined blowing schemes make it easier for the gas to enter the gap 60a between the box body 61 and the box cover 62.

[0034] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 4 The top surface 10a of the base 10 is recessed toward the bottom surface 10b to form a first height adjustment groove 16, and the first mounting member 31 is disposed in the first height adjustment groove 16. Figure 5, along the direction from the top surface 10a to the bottom surface 10b, the second air blowing port 313 is flush with the top surface 10a of the base 10, or the second air blowing port 313 is lower than the top surface 10a of the base 10. When the edge 62a of the box cover 62 is flush with the bottom 61a of the box body 61, the structure in which the second air blowing port 313 is flush with the top surface 10a of the base 10 or lower than the top surface 10a of the base 10 is conducive to the gas entering the gap 60a between the box body 61 and the box cover 62. Of course, if the edge 62a of the box cover 62 is higher than the bottom 61a of the box body 61, the first height adjustment groove 16 may not be provided on the base 10, and the gas can enter the gap 60a between the box body 61 and the box cover 62 by blowing directly to the outer wall of the box body 61.

[0035] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 4 The blowing assembly 30 also includes a second mounting member 33 and a second blowing pipe 34. The second blowing pipe 34 is connected to the second mounting member 33. The first mounting member 31 and the second mounting member 33 are respectively arranged on both sides of the placement area 14. Such a structure allows gas to enter both sides of the box body 61 and the box cover 62. On the one hand, it can increase the gas flow rate and speed up the separation speed of the box cover 62 and the box body 61. On the other hand, it can balance the gas flow on both sides of the box body 61 and the box cover 62 to avoid the box cover 62 being unbalanced and stuck during the separation process relative to the box body 61.

[0036] The specific structure and function of the second mounting member 33 and the second air blowing pipe 34 are the same or similar to those of the first mounting member 31 and the second air blowing pipe 34. In addition, a second height adjustment groove 17 may also be provided on the base 10, and the second mounting member 33 is provided in the second height adjustment groove 17. For details, please refer to the above-mentioned embodiment, which will not be repeated here.

[0037] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 4 , the first mounting member 31 and the second mounting member 33 can be movably arranged on the base 10, so that the distance between the first mounting member 31 and the second mounting member 33 can be adjusted to adapt to different sizes of the box body 61 and the box cover 62. Specifically, as an example, the first mounting member 31 and the second mounting member 33 can be movably arranged on the base 10 by a spring assembly, so that the distance between the first mounting member 31 and the second mounting member 33 can be adjusted at any time. As another example, when adapting to the box body 61 and the box cover 62 of the first size, the first mounting member 31 and the second mounting member 33 are fixed on the base 10 with the first size as the distance, and when adapting to the box body 61 and the box cover 62 of the second size, the first mounting member 31 and the second mounting member 33 are readjusted to the second size as the distance and then fixed on the base 10 again.

[0038] In some embodiments, see Figure 4 A guide plane 35 is provided on the first mounting member 31 and the second mounting member 33. The guide plane 35 is inclined so as to facilitate guiding the box body 61 and the box cover 62 to the placement area 14, saving the workers' time in adjusting the position of the box body 61 on the base 10 and improving the separation efficiency.

[0039] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The auxiliary box opening mechanism 100 further includes a detection component 50, which is disposed on the base 10 and is configured to detect the placement area 14 to generate a trigger signal. As an example, the detection component 50 includes a photoelectric sensor, which is disposed on the top surface 10a of the base 10, and the photoelectric sensor is directly or indirectly connected to the suction component 20 and the blowing component 30 by electrical signals. The photoelectric sensor is used to detect whether there is a box body 61 and a box cover 62 on the placement area 14. If so, a trigger signal is generated to enable the suction component 20 and the blowing component 30 to work, thereby realizing the separation of the box body 61 and the box cover 62.

[0040] The present application further provides an embodiment of an assembly line operation system, which includes a grabbing mechanism and the above-mentioned auxiliary box opening mechanism 100. When the auxiliary box opening mechanism 100 separates the box cover 62 from the box body 61, the grabbing mechanism is configured to grab the box cover 62, thereby completely separating the box cover 62 from the box body 61, so as to facilitate placing electronic devices such as headphones into the box body 61 in the subsequent process. The specific structure and function of the auxiliary box opening mechanism 100 can be referred to the above embodiment, and will not be repeated here.

[0041] The auxiliary box opening mechanism 100 of the embodiment of the present application includes a base 10, an air suction component 20 and an air blowing component 30. The base 10 is provided with a first air suction channel 11 and a first air suction port 12, and the first air suction port 12 connects the first air suction channel 11 with the outside; the air suction component 20 is arranged on the base 10 and connected with the first air suction channel 11, and the air suction component 20 is configured to absorb the box body 61 placed on the base 10 through the first air suction port 12 and the first air suction channel 11; the air blowing component 30 is arranged on the base 10, and the air blowing component 30 is configured to blow air into the gap 60a between the box body 61 and the box cover 62 covered on the box body 61. In the present application, the suction component 20 is used to absorb and fix the box body 61, and the gas is blown into the interior of the box body 61 from the gap 60a between the box body 61 and the box cover 62 through the blowing component 30 to lift the box cover 62 relative to the box body 61, thereby achieving rapid separation of the box cover 62 and the box body 61 and improving the separation efficiency.

[0042] The above descriptions are merely embodiments of the present application and are not intended to limit the patent scope of the present application. Any equivalent structure or equivalent process transformation made using the contents of the present application specification and drawings, or directly or indirectly applied in other related technical fields, are also included in the patent protection scope of the present application.
