Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of automatic assembly, in particular to automatic assembly equipment for an air outlet of an automobile air conditioner. Background Art
[0002] The air outlet assembly of a car air conditioner includes an outer shell and blades. In order to ensure that the blades can be linked, the blades need to be connected with a connecting rod first and then installed in the outer shell. Therefore, during the production and assembly process of the air outlet of the car air conditioner, workers are asked to insert the blades one by one into the mounting holes of the connecting rod. This method of assembly is very inefficient and can easily damage the blades. Summary of the invention

[0018] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0019] The utility model provides a technical solution: an automatic assembly device for automobile air-conditioning outlets, comprising a conveyor belt 1, a flexible loading tray 2, a tooling carrier 3, a set of symmetrical loading mechanisms 4, and two unloading manipulators 5, which are respectively installed on both sides of the conveyor belt 1. The specific structural distribution is as follows Figure 1 As shown;
[0020] The tooling platform 3 is used to place a plurality of auxiliary tooling 31. A second manipulator 32 is provided next to the tooling platform 3. The second manipulator clamps the auxiliary tooling 31 and puts it on the conveyor belt. As the conveyor belt is conveyed, it passes through the flexible loading tray 2.
[0021] The above-mentioned flexible loading tray 2 usually uses a voice coil motor as a power source. The voice coil motors are distributed at the four inner corners of the flexible loading tray 2. The vibration frequency of the voice coil motor is controlled by a controller, so that the blades placed in the flexible loading tray 2 resonate, making it easier to move and arrange. In the process of arranging the blades, the flexible loading tray 2 also combines a visual system and robotics technology, and uses a camera to identify the correct posture and position of the material, and sends the information to the first manipulator 21 set next to the flexible loading tray 2. The first manipulator 21 accurately grabs the blades based on this information, and then the first manipulator 21 inserts the blades into the auxiliary tooling 31, and continues to be transported by the conveyor belt and passes between the two loading mechanisms 4;
[0022] An assembly mechanism 41 is provided beside the feeding mechanism 4 on each side, and the connecting rod is taken out from the feeding mechanism 4 through the assembly mechanism 41, and then the connecting rod is fixedly connected to all the blades under the drive of the assembly mechanism 41;
[0023] The assembled blades and connecting rods are transported by the conveyor belt and pass through two unloading robots 5. One of the unloading robots 5 first removes the connected blades and connecting rods from the auxiliary tooling 31, and the other unloading robot 5 removes the auxiliary tooling 31 from the conveyor belt.
[0024] like Figure 2-3 As shown, in this embodiment, the feeding mechanism 4 includes a bracket 42, on which a U-shaped frame 43 is fixed. The cavity shape of the U-shaped frame 43 is similar to the blade structure. The blades are aligned with the front end of the U-shaped frame 43, and the two ends of the blades are connected to the shaft and embedded in the two sides of the U-shaped frame 43 to form a slide groove 44, so that the blades are pushed into the cavity of the U-shaped frame 43. At this time, the blades are neatly arranged in the U-shaped frame 43.
[0025] When the assembly mechanism 41 removes a connecting rod from the U-shaped frame 43, the pushing assembly 45 provided at the rear end thereof will push forward so that the next connecting rod is placed at the port;
[0026] The specific structure of the pushing component 45 includes a hydraulic rod 451, and a push block 452 is provided at the front end of the hydraulic rod 451. The structure size of the push block is similar to that of the blade. The surface of the push block 452 is wrapped with a silicone layer 453. The movement of the push block is achieved by retracting the hydraulic rod, thereby pushing the blade forward.
[0027] like Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the assembly mechanism 41 includes a rotating platform 411, on which a cylinder 412 is installed, and the cylinder is driven to rotate by the rotating platform, and a mounting frame 413 is fixed to the front end of the cylinder 412, and a plurality of suction nozzles 414 are provided on the mounting frame 413 for sucking the connecting rod;
[0028] The suction nozzle is driven to rotate to the U-shaped frame 43 by the rotating platform 411, and then the suction nozzle 414 is pushed to approach the connecting rod and suck it by the cylinder 412. Then, driven by the rotating platform 411, the connecting rod is aligned with the multiple blades on the auxiliary tooling 31, and the connecting rod can be fixedly connected to all the blades by extending the piston rod of the cylinder.
[0029] like Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, the auxiliary tooling 31 includes a fixing module 311 , and a plurality of blade clamping grooves 312 are provided on the fixing module 311 for clamping the blades.
[0030] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
