[0020] The following is combined with Figure 1 To Attachment Figure 3 The principles and features of the present invention are described, and the examples given are only used to explain the present invention, and are not used to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0021] A workpiece transport platform installed on a production line includes a base 1 and a locking assembly 3, and the corresponding production line includes a traction assembly and a frame 7; wherein the frame 7 constitutes the main body of the production line, the base 1 is connected to the production line and slides along the production line, the traction assembly is connected to the base 1 as a power assembly and drives the base 1 to reciprocate on the production line, and the locking assembly 3 is distributed along the production line, and the function of the locking assembly 3 is to firmly fix the base 1 on the production line.

[0022] Specifically, in this embodiment, the base 1 is plate-shaped, and a slot 2 is provided on one side thereof, and the slot 2 is open U-shaped. The function of the base 1 is to carry the workpiece to slide on the production line, so a clamp 17 for fixing the workpiece is provided on the upper surface of the base 1, and the clamp 17 should be compatible with the parts to be assembled. In the remaining embodiments, the base 1 can be of any shape as long as it can realize the function of carrying the workpiece. The traction assembly on the production line includes a guide rail 12 and a chain 13, wherein the guide rail 12 is mainly used for guiding, and the chain 13 is used as a power component. The guide rail 12 is a closed ring, and the chain 13 is provided on one side of the guide rail 12. The chain 13 should have relative motion with the guide rail 12. In this embodiment, the guide rail 12 is fixed, and the chain 13 is cyclically rotating. Two rows of guide wheels 14 are connected to the bottom surface of the base 1, and the two rows of guide wheels 14 are arranged on opposite sides of the guide rail 12 and roll along the guide rail 12, and the guide wheels 14 form a rolling connection with the guide rail 12. The base 1 is also connected to a connecting arm 15, which extends above the chain 13 and is connected to the chain 13 through a clamping plate 16. In other embodiments, the chain 13 can be replaced by a component with similar functions such as a synchronous belt.

[0023] The locking assembly 3 includes a movable rod 4, a fixed seat 5, a rotating shaft 6, a driver 8 and a connecting rod 9. The fixed seat 5 is connected to the frame 7 of the production line, and the rotating shaft 6 is rotatably connected to the fixed seat 5. One end of the movable rod 4 is connected to the rotating shaft 6, and the other end can be extended into the card slot 2 or extended out of the card slot 2. One end of the driver 8 is connected to the frame 7 of the production line, and the driver 8 has a retractable or retractable elastic rod (such as a cylinder). The elastic rod of the driver 8 is connected to one end of the connecting rod 9, and the other end of the connecting rod 9 is connected to the rotating shaft 6. The driver 8 drives the connecting rod 9 to swing, and the swing of the connecting rod 9 drives the rotating shaft 6 to rotate, and the rotation of the rotating shaft 6 drives the movable rod 4 to swing. The end of the movable rod 4 that extends to or extends out of the card slot 2 is connected to a shaft sleeve 10, so that the movable rod 4 can enter the card slot 2 more easily.

[0024] During actual assembly, different assembly stations are set up on one side of the production line, and each assembly station corresponds to a locking component 3. When the base 1 moves to a certain station, the locking component 3 of the station is started to extend the movable rod 4 into the slot 2 to lock the base 1 with the production line; when the assembly is completed, the locking component 3 is started again to move the end of the movable rod 4 out of the slot 2, so that the base 1 can be prevented from making slight movements that affect the assembly accuracy during assembly.

[0025] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
