Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of automobile production, in particular to a switching device for an automobile side outer panel. Background Art

[0002] The side outer panel refers to the covering panel on the side of the automobile body. It fits tightly on the body frame and supports the top cover, connecting the front and rear parts of the body. It is an important part of the automobile body structure. The side outer panel is the largest stamping part of the automobile body in white. It has a large area and a soft texture. During the production and transportation process, a special trolley is required. The special trolley is large in size and can carry 10-15 side outer panels in a single transportation. Each side outer panel is vertically fixed on the special trolley in sequence through a multi-layer partition design.

[0003] When the side panel is put into the automobile production line in the welding workshop, the traditional special trolley is used to transfer the side panel from the production line to the loading station of the side panel through the logistics channel. When arriving at the loading station, the special trolley needs to be switched, which requires the cooperation of at least two logistics personnel. First, the empty special trolley is pulled out from the loading station to the production line for standby, and then the fully loaded special trolley is pushed into the designated position of the loading station. Then the loading personnel at the loading station use professional lifting equipment to lift the side panel on the special trolley one by one to enter the next step of production. The problems existing in the process of transportation and switching are: 1. The switching takes a long time; 2. The special trolley is large in size and requires more people. Assisted switching can easily lead to a waste of personnel resources, high labor intensity and high production costs; 3. The special trolley located at the loading station needs to wait until all the side panel outer panels are lifted out and unloaded before it can be put into transportation again, and there is a phenomenon of multiple fully loaded special trolleys piling up at the loading station. At the same time, when the two professional trolleys switch positions with each other, the loading personnel cannot unload the parts, and the work efficiency is low. In order to ensure the transportation efficiency, more special trolleys need to be added, which is costly; 4. In the process of lifting out, the side panel outer panels are prone to collision, which can easily lead to appearance defects such as convex and concave metal and deformation of the sheet metal, which not only affects the production quality, but may also increase the cost of single vehicle rework.

[0053] The technical solution of the present utility model is described in detail below in conjunction with the specific drawings.

[0054] In this embodiment, a switching device for a side outer panel of an automobile is provided. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, it includes: a support 1 and a mounting frame 2, a rotating column 21 is fixed on the mounting frame 2, and the mounting frame 2 is rotatably mounted on the support 1 through the rotating column 21; two supporting mechanisms, the two supporting mechanisms are respectively mounted on both sides of the mounting frame 2 with the rotating column 21 as the symmetry center, and the mounting frame 2 can drive the two supporting mechanisms to rotate around the rotating column 21 so that the two supporting mechanisms can switch with each other.

[0055] In this embodiment, the loading station is where the logistics personnel transfer the car side outer panel on the fully loaded trolley to the work station of the corresponding support mechanism, and the unloading station is where the loading personnel unload the car side outer panel on the fully loaded support mechanism to the work station of the next production process; a handle is installed on the mounting frame 2 for easy rotation;

[0056] In this embodiment, supporting mechanisms for supporting the side outer panels of the automobile are respectively installed on the opposite sides of the mounting frame 2, so that the position of the side outer panels of the automobile on the mounting frame 2 is increased. Under the action of the rotating column 21, the mounting frame 2 can drive the two supporting mechanisms to rotate, so that the two supporting mechanisms in the loading station and the unloading station can be switched with each other, and the loading work of the logistics personnel and the unloading work of the loading personnel do not affect each other. The two stations can work at the same time, with high switching efficiency and high work efficiency. Specifically, during work, when the logistics personnel push the fully loaded trolley to the loading station, all the side outer panels of the automobile on the trolley are switched to the supporting mechanism of the loading station at one time, and then the mounting frame 2 is rotated by the handle to switch the fully loaded supporting mechanism with another empty supporting mechanism. The loading station and the unloading station can operate at the same time without affecting each other and with high work efficiency.

[0057] In this embodiment, the support mechanism includes a support assembly 3 and a lifting assembly 4. The support assembly 3 is mounted on the lifting assembly 4, and the lifting assembly 4 is mounted on the mounting frame 2 to drive the support assembly 3 to rise and fall.

[0058] In this embodiment, Figure 3 As shown, it can be understood that the sizes of the side panels of automobiles of different models are different, so the positions supported by the support assembly 3 are also different. The use of the lifting assembly 4 to adjust the position of the support assembly 3 makes the switching device more versatile and more practical; when working, first drive the support assembly 3 to rise and fall through the lifting assembly 4 according to the size of the automobile side panel to be switched, so as to adjust the position of the support assembly 3 so that the support assembly 3 corresponds to the reserved support point of the automobile side panel to be switched. Specifically, when the logistics personnel push the fully loaded trolley to the loading station, all the automobile side panels on the trolley are switched to the support assembly 3 at one time, and then Then, the first driving device 6 is started again to drive the lifting assembly 4 to drive the support assembly 3 to rise to a certain height, so that all the automobile side outer panels are just separated from the trolley, so as to facilitate pulling the empty trolley out of the loading station. When the support assembly 3 in the loading station is fully loaded or the support assembly 3 in the unloading station is completed, the mounting frame 2 is rotated to 180 degrees by the rotating column 21, so that the two support assemblies 3 alternate positions to facilitate the continued loading and unloading work. The switching efficiency is high, the time is short, the switching method is simple, the working efficiency is high, the risk of collision of the automobile side outer panels during the switching process is reduced, the production quality is improved, and the cost of single vehicle rework is reduced.

[0059] In this embodiment, the support assembly 3 includes a support arm 31, the length of which is set in the horizontal direction and installed on the lifting assembly 4, and is used to support the side outer panel of the automobile. A moving assembly 32 is installed on the support arm 31, and the moving assembly 32 can be connected to the side outer panel of the automobile to drive the side outer panel of the automobile to move along the length direction of the support arm 31.

[0060] As shown Figure 2 and 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the support arm 31 supports the outer panel of the automobile side, which has a simple structure and good supporting effect, and the moving assembly 32 drives the outer panel of the automobile side supported on the support arm 31 to move. When loading, the outer panel of the automobile side can be moved to the inner side of the support arm 31, so that there is more space at the end of the support arm 31 close to the trolley, that is, the support arm 31 can carry more outer panels of the automobile side and prevent the outer panels of the automobile side from falling off. When unloading, the outer panel of the automobile side can be moved to the outer side of the support arm 31, so that the personnel who load the parts can take the parts easily, reduce the work risks of the personnel who load the parts, improve the efficiency of unloading, reduce the risk of collision of the outer panel of the automobile side during the unloading process, improve the production quality, reduce the cost of single vehicle repair, good practicality and high versatility.

[0061] Specifically, during operation, according to the size of the automobile side panel to be switched, the lifting assembly 4 is first driven by the first driving device 6 to drive the support arm 31 to rise and fall, so as to adjust the position of the support arm 31 so that the support arm 31 corresponds to the reserved support point of the automobile side panel to be switched, and the logistics personnel push the trolley fully loaded with automobile side panels to move along the length direction of the support arm 31, so that the support arm 31 is away from one end installed on the lifting assembly 4 and passes through the reserved support positions of each automobile side panel on the trolley in turn, and then the first driving device 6 drives the lifting assembly 4 again to drive the support arm 31 to rise to a certain height, so that the supported automobile side panel is just separated from the trolley, so as to facilitate pulling the empty trolley out of the loading station, and the switching efficiency is high; it can be understood that the automobile side panels fixed on the trolley are arranged in sequence along the length direction of the support arm 31, and during the movement of the trolley along the length direction of the support arm 31, the reserved support positions of each automobile side panel are sequentially sleeved on the support arm 31 to support it.

[0062] In this embodiment, the moving component 32 includes a transmission chain 321 and two sprockets 322. The transmission chain 321 is arranged along the length direction of the support arm 31 and is sleeved on the support arm 31. The transmission chain 321 can abut against the outer panel of the side wall of the automobile. Both ends of the support arm 31 are provided with mounting grooves 323. The two sprockets 322 are respectively rotatably installed in the two mounting grooves 323 through rotating shafts and mesh with the transmission chain 321. One end of one of the rotating shafts extends out of the mounting groove 323 and is fixed with a handle 324.

It can be understood that when the length of the support arm 31 is long enough, in specific work, after the fully loaded trolley puts the outer panel of the automobile side panel on the support arm 31, the handle 324 can be turned to make the transmission chain 321 drive the outer panel of the automobile side panel to move toward the inner side close to the lifting component 4, so that the outer side of the support arm 31 can cooperate with the next fully loaded trolley to switch the outer panel of the automobile side panel, thereby increasing the load capacity of the support arm 31, which is highly practical. The handle 324 can also be turned to make the transmission chain 321 drive the outer panel of the automobile side panel to move outward, which is convenient for the loading personnel to pick up the parts, thereby improving the operation safety, improving the unloading efficiency, improving the production quality, and reducing the cost of single vehicle repair. It has good practicality, high versatility, good transmission effect, and good stability.

[0064] As a preferred implementation of this embodiment, the number of the supporting components 3 is two, and the two supporting components 3 are arranged opposite to each other; Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the two support assemblies 3 jointly support the outer panel of the automobile side, with good stability and high safety; it can be understood that the sprockets 322 at one end of the two support arms 31 close to the lifting assembly 4 can be connected by a transmission rod, so that by rotating one of the handles 324, the two transmission chains 321 can be driven to rotate at the same time, so as to drive the outer panel of the automobile side to move, with good synchronization.

[0065] In this embodiment, the supporting mechanism also includes an adjusting component 5, which includes: a mounting plate 51, which is mounted on the lifting component 4; a first guide member 53, a fixed seat 54 and a first slide 55, wherein the first guide member 53 and the fixed seat 54 are respectively fixed on the mounting plate 51, the first slide 55 is slidably mounted on the first guide member 53, and the two supporting arms 31 are respectively connected to the fixed seat 54 and the first slide 55; a second driving device 52, which is connected to the first slide 55 to drive the first slide 55 to move along the guiding direction of the first guide member 53, thereby adjusting the distance between the two supporting arms 31.

[0066] In this embodiment, Figure 6As shown, the adjustment component 5 adjusts the distance between the two support arms 31 so that the two support arms 31 correspond to the reserved support points of the automobile side panel to be switched, which has high practicality and good versatility. Specifically, before switching, according to the size of the automobile side panel to be switched, the second drive device 52 drives the first slide 55 to move along the first guide member 53, thereby driving one of the support arms 31 to move away from or close to the other support arm 31, and adjusting the distance between the two support arms 31. At the same time, the first drive device 6 drives the lifting component 4 to drive the support arm 31 to rise and fall, so as to adjust the height position of the support arm 31, so that the two support arms 31 correspond to the reserved support points of the automobile side panel to be switched. The structure is simple, the adjustment is convenient, the versatility is good, the practicality is high, the application range is wide, the transmission performance is good, and the support is more stable. The second drive device 52 can be a cylinder, and the first guide member 53 can be a guide rail.

[0067] It can be understood that the transmission rod connected between the two sprockets 322 is rotated and installed on the mounting plate 51, wherein the sprocket 322 on the support arm 31 close to the first slide seat 55 is slidably mounted on the transmission rod through a sliding sleeve, so that the two transmission chains 321 can rotate synchronously under the action of the transmission rod without affecting the position adjustment of the support arm 31.

[0068] As a preferred implementation of this embodiment, the adjustment assembly 5 further includes a limit pin 56, and a plurality of limit holes 57 that can be engaged with the limit pin 56 are formed on the mounting plate 51, and the limit holes 57 are evenly distributed along the guide direction of the first guide member 53, and the limit pin 56 can abut against the first slide seat 55 to limit the first slide seat 55; Figure 7 As shown, before the second driving device 52 adjusts the distance between the two support arms 31, the position of the limit pin 56 on the mounting plate 51 is adjusted according to the actual size of the automobile side outer panel, and then the limit pin 56 is clamped in the corresponding limit hole 57. When the second driving device 52 adjusts the distance, when the first slide seat 55 abuts against the limit pin 56, the distance adjustment is completed, that is, the distance between the two support arms 31 matches the size of the automobile side outer panel to be supported, and the adjustment is more precise and the stability is better.

The first driving device 6 is installed on the support 1. The first driving device 6 is connected to the lifting frame 41 for driving the lifting frame 41 to drive the mounting plate 51 to move up and down.

[0070] In this embodiment, Figure 5As shown, the first driving device 6 is located at one side of the loading station and can be driven and connected to the lifting frame 41 in the loading station. During specific operation, the first driving device 6 drives the lifting frame 41. Under the guiding action of the second guide member 42, the lifting frame 41 can move up and down smoothly, thereby ensuring the stability of the vehicle side panel on the support arm 31 and preventing the vehicle side panel from colliding with each other and causing damage. It can be understood that only the support arm 31 in the loading station needs to be height adjusted. Therefore, the first driving device 6 only needs to be driven and connected to the lifting frame 41 in the loading station, thereby reducing the use of power source and reducing costs. Among them, the second guide member 42 can be a guide rail; the first driving device 6 can be a cylinder.

Specifically, before the first driving device 6 drives the lifting frame 41 to move, the original supporting support tube 44 is removed, and after the first driving device 6 drives the lifting frame 41 to move up and down and adjust to a new position, the support tube 44 corresponding to the size is reinstalled, so that the lifting frame 41 can be supported and fixed at the adjusted position by the support tube 44, the stability is good, the situation that the first driving device 6 needs to work continuously is avoided, and resources are saved.

[0072] In this embodiment, a locking mechanism 7 is also included, which includes a locking rod 71, a limiting groove 72 and a third driving device 73. The limiting groove 72 is installed on the mounting frame 2. One end of the locking rod 71 can be plugged into the limiting groove 72, and the other end is connected to the third driving device 73. The third driving device 73 is used to drive the locking rod 71 to be plugged into the limiting groove 72 or to be contact-plugged.

[0073] In this embodiment, Figure 3 and Figure 7 As shown, the locking mechanism 7 can fix the mounting frame 2 so that the mounting frame 2 cannot rotate along the rotating column 21 to ensure its stability and production quality. The third driving device 73 is fixed to the ground. Specifically, when the two supporting mechanisms are working at the upper and lower workstations respectively, the locking rod 71 is driven by the third driving device 73 to be plugged into the limiting groove 72, so that the mounting frame 2 cannot rotate, thereby ensuring production quality; when the two supporting mechanisms need to exchange positions, the locking rod 71 is driven by the third driving device 73 to not be plugged into the limiting groove 72, so that the mounting frame 2 can rotate. The structure is simple, the adjustment is convenient, and the stability is good.
