[0003] In the related art, the top cover piece needs to be inserted into the rubber frame manually, which requires a lot of manpower, has high labor intensity, and has low frame insertion efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the above problems, the present application provides a frame insertion machine, which aims to realize an automatic frame insertion process to improve the frame insertion efficiency.

[0005] The present application provides a frame insertion machine, including a frame, a frame insertion mechanism and a transport mechanism; the frame insertion mechanism is arranged on the frame, the frame insertion mechanism includes a frame insertion bracket, a flip assembly and a pushing component, the flip assembly is arranged on the frame insertion bracket and can be flipped relative to the frame insertion bracket, and the pushing component is connected to the flip assembly; the transport mechanism is arranged on the frame, and is used to transport the rubber frame to the frame insertion position of the frame insertion bracket, and is also used to transport the top cover piece to the flip assembly, the flip assembly is flipped, and the pushing component pushes the top cover piece on the flip assembly into the rubber frame.

[0006] In the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, the technical solution of the utility model provides a frame inserting machine, which transports the plastic frame to the frame inserting position of the frame inserting bracket through a transport mechanism, and transports the top cover sheet to the flip assembly. When the flip assembly flips, it can drive the top cover sheet and the pushing component on the flip assembly to flip, and then push the top cover sheet on the flip assembly into the plastic frame through the pushing component to complete the frame inserting step. Therefore, the frame inserting machine proposed in this solution can realize the automatic frame inserting process, thereby improving the frame inserting efficiency.

[0007] In some embodiments, the frame insertion mechanism further includes a clamping and fixing component, which is used to clamp or release the plastic frame on the frame insertion bracket. With such a design, after the transport mechanism transports the plastic frame to the frame insertion position of the frame insertion bracket, the clamping and fixing component clamps the plastic frame on the frame insertion bracket, which can improve the stability of the frame insertion process; after the frame insertion is completed, the clamping and fixing component releases the plastic frame to facilitate the transport of the product on the frame insertion bracket to the unloading mechanism.

[0008] In some embodiments, the clamping and fixing component includes a first baffle and a second baffle, which are movably arranged on the plug-in frame bracket and have a clamping position and a releasing position; when the first baffle and the second baffle are in the clamping position, the first baffle and the second baffle are located on both sides of the rubber frame to clamp the rubber frame; when the first baffle and the second baffle are in the releasing position, the rubber frame is released. With such a design, when the first baffle and the second baffle move to the clamping position, the first baffle and the second baffle respectively abut against both sides of the rubber frame to clamp the rubber frame; when the second baffle and the second baffle move to the releasing position, the first baffle and the second baffle are spaced from the rubber frame to release the rubber frame, so that the rubber frame can be smoothly clamped or released under the movement of the first baffle and the second baffle, and the structural design is relatively simple.

[0009] In some embodiments, the first baffle and the second baffle can be raised and lowered on the insertion frame bracket to switch between the clamping position and the release position. With this design, when the first baffle and the second baffle are lowered to the release position, the two sides of the plastic frame will not be blocked by the first baffle and the second baffle, making it easier for the transport mechanism to transport the product after the insertion frame.

[0010] In some embodiments, the frame insertion mechanism further includes a frame pushing component, which is arranged on the frame insertion bracket, and the clamp fixing component is transmission-connected to the frame pushing component, and the frame pushing component is used to push the clamp fixing component and the rubber frame clamped on the clamp fixing component to move along the first direction. With such a design, the transport mechanism first transports the rubber frame to the clamp fixing component, clamps the rubber frame by the clamp fixing component, and then pushes the clamp fixing component and the rubber frame clamped on the clamp fixing component to move along the first direction by the frame pushing component until the rubber frame moves to the frame insertion position of the frame insertion bracket, so as to perform subsequent frame insertion actions; in addition, after the top cover sheet is pushed into the rubber frame by the material pushing component, the frame pushing component pushes the rubber frame to move one grid along the first direction, and then the next top cover sheet is pushed into the next installation position of the rubber frame by the material pushing component, and so on, until the rubber frame is full; and after the rubber frame is full, the full frame of products can also be pushed to the transport mechanism by the frame pushing component, so that the transport mechanism can transport the products to the unloading mechanism.

[0011] In some embodiments, the flip assembly includes a flip component and a positioning jig; the flip component is disposed on the insert frame bracket and can be flipped relative to the insert frame bracket; the positioning jig and the push component are both connected to the flip component, and the transport mechanism is used to transport the top cover sheet to the positioning jig. In such a design, the top cover sheet can be transported to the positioning jig by the transport mechanism, and the top cover sheet can be positioned by the positioning jig, which can improve the placement accuracy of the top cover sheet, and then the top cover sheet can be more accurately inserted into the rubber frame by the push component.

[0012] In some embodiments, the inserting frame mechanism further includes a guiding component and an anti-flying component; the anti-flying component is arranged on the flipping component, and the anti-flying component has a retractable anti-flying component, which is located above the top cover sheet when extended to resist the top cover sheet; the guiding component is arranged on the flipping component to guide the extension and retraction of the anti-flying component. With such a design, after the transport mechanism transports the top cover sheet to the positioning fixture, the anti-flying component of the anti-flying component extends above the top cover sheet to resist the top cover sheet, so that the top cover sheet will not fly out of the positioning fixture during the subsequent flipping process; and under the guidance of the guiding component, the anti-flying component can be extended and retracted more smoothly.

[0013] In some embodiments, the flipping component includes a flip cylinder and a flip shaft; the flip cylinder is arranged on the insert frame bracket; the flip shaft is connected to the flip cylinder, and the flip cylinder drives the flip shaft to rotate; the positioning fixture is connected to the flip shaft to flip along with the flip shaft. With such a design, when the flipping component needs to be flipped, the flip shaft is driven to rotate by the flip cylinder, and the rotation of the flip shaft can drive the positioning fixture, the top cover sheet on the positioning fixture, and the pusher component connected to the positioning fixture to flip, thereby achieving a smooth flipping process.

[0014] In some embodiments, the frame insertion mechanism includes at least two flipping parts, at least two positioning jigs, and at least two pushing parts, and each positioning jig and a pushing part are connected to a flipping part to flip along with the corresponding flipping part. With such a design, since the top cover piece is still being continuously loaded during the process of replacing the plastic frame after the frame is full, at least two positioning jigs and at least two pushing parts are provided, and after the previous top cover piece is moved to one of the positioning jigs, the next top cover piece can be moved to the remaining positioning jigs, so that the frame can be changed without stopping the machine.

[0015] In some embodiments, the frame inserting machine further includes a first loading mechanism, a second loading mechanism and a unloading mechanism; the first loading mechanism is arranged on the frame, and is used to convey the rubber frame to the first loading position; the conveying mechanism is used to convey the rubber frame at the first loading position to the insertion position of the frame inserting bracket; the second loading mechanism is arranged on the frame, and is used to convey the top cover sheet to the second loading position; the conveying mechanism is used to convey the top cover sheet at the second loading position to the flip assembly; the unloading mechanism is arranged on the frame, and the conveying mechanism is also used to convey the product on the frame inserting bracket to the unloading mechanism.

In addition, the conveying mechanism can also convey the finished product to the unloading mechanism, and finally the product output is realized by the unloading mechanism to realize the automatic unloading process.

[0016] In some embodiments, the first loading mechanism includes a first conveyor line and a lifting component; the lifting component is arranged near the discharge end of the first conveyor line, and the first lifting component is used to lift the rubber frame from the discharge end of the first conveyor line to the first loading position. In this design, the rubber frame is first transported to the discharge end by the first conveyor line, and then the rubber frame is lifted to the first loading position by the lifting component, so that the transport mechanism can transport the rubber frame to the insertion frame position of the insertion frame bracket.

[0043] In the description of the embodiments of the present application, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, technical terms such as "installed", "connected", "connected", "fixed" and the like should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, and it can be the internal connection of two components or the interaction relationship between two components. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the embodiments of the present application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0044] As a new type of secondary battery, lithium-ion battery has the advantages of high energy density and power density, high operating voltage, light weight, small size, long cycle life, good safety, and green environmental protection. It has broad application prospects in portable appliances, power tools, large-scale energy storage, electric transportation power supply, etc.

[0045] With the continuous development and progress of new energy power battery technology, the market demand for new energy power batteries is increasing, and manufacturers are also constantly improving production efficiency to meet market demand. In the process of preparing new energy power batteries, the top cover frame is an important step in the entire manufacturing process of new energy power batteries.

[0046] In the related art, the top cover piece needs to be inserted into the rubber frame manually, which requires a lot of manpower, has high labor intensity, and has low frame insertion efficiency.

[0047] Based on the above problems, the present invention proposes a frame inserting machine 100, which aims to realize an automatic frame inserting process to improve the frame inserting efficiency.

[0048] See also Figures 1 to 6 In one embodiment of the present utility model, the frame inserting machine 100 includes a frame 10, a frame inserting mechanism 40 and a transport mechanism 50;

[0049] The frame insertion mechanism 40 is arranged on the frame 10, and the frame insertion mechanism 40 includes an insertion frame bracket 41, a flip assembly and a pushing component 44. The flip assembly is arranged on the insertion frame bracket 41 and can be flipped relative to the insertion frame bracket 41. The pushing component 44 is connected to the flip assembly; the transport mechanism 50 is arranged on the frame 10, and is used to transport the rubber frame to the insertion frame position of the insertion frame bracket 41, and is also used to transport the top cover piece to the flip assembly. The flip assembly is flipped, and the pushing component 44 pushes the top cover piece on the flip assembly into the rubber frame.

[0050] It can be understood that the rack 10 can be designed as a frame to support and fix structural parts such as the frame insertion mechanism 40 and the transport mechanism 50.

[0051] It can be understood that the flip assembly can flip relative to the insert frame bracket 41, and drive the pusher component 44 to flip, so as to realize flipping and switching between the first position and the second position. Among them, when the flip assembly is in the first position, the transport mechanism 50 is used to transport the top cover sheet to the flip assembly; when the flip assembly flips to the second position, the pusher component 44 pushes the top cover sheet on the flip assembly into the rubber frame. Optionally, the flip assembly can be flipped forward 90 degrees to flip from the first position to the second position; the flip assembly can also be flipped backward 90 degrees to rotate from the second position to the first position. Of course, in other embodiments, the flip assembly can also be flipped forward 70 degrees, 80 degrees, etc. to flip from the first position to the second position; the flip assembly can also be flipped backward 70 degrees, 80 degrees, etc. to rotate from the second position to the first position.

[0052] In actual application, the transport mechanism 50 can use the same transport component to sequentially transport the rubber frame to the insertion frame position of the insertion frame bracket 10, and transport the top cover piece to the flip assembly; or, the transport mechanism 50 can also use different transport components to respectively transport the rubber frame to the insertion frame position of the insertion frame bracket 10, and transport the top cover piece to the flip assembly.

[0053] In summary, in the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, the technical solution of the utility model provides a frame inserting machine 100, which transports the plastic frame to the frame inserting position of the frame inserting bracket 41 through the transport mechanism 50, and transports the top cover sheet to the flip assembly. When the flip assembly flips, it can drive the top cover sheet and the pushing component 44 on the flip assembly to flip, and then push the top cover sheet on the flip assembly into the plastic frame through the pushing component 44 to complete the frame inserting step. Therefore, the frame inserting machine 100 proposed in this solution can realize the automatic frame inserting process, thereby improving the frame inserting efficiency.

[0054] In addition, the frame inserting machine 100 is used to realize the automatic frame inserting process, thereby improving the frame inserting stability of the top cover piece, thereby improving the quality stability of the product.

[0055] In one embodiment of the present application, Figure 6 The frame insertion mechanism 40 further includes a clamping and fixing component 45 , which is used to clamp or release the rubber frame on the frame insertion bracket 41 .

[0056] With this design, after the transport mechanism 50 transports the plastic frame to the insertion position of the insertion frame bracket 41, the clamping and fixing component 45 clamps the plastic frame on the insertion frame bracket 41, which can improve the stability of the insertion process; after the insertion is completed, the clamping and fixing component 45 releases the plastic frame to facilitate transporting the product on the insertion frame bracket 41 to the unloading mechanism 60.

[0057] In practical applications, each plastic frame can be inserted with one or at least two top cover sheets.

[0058] In one embodiment of the present application, Figure 6 The clamping and fixing component 45 includes a first baffle and a second baffle, which are movably arranged on the insertion frame bracket 41 and have a clamping position and a releasing position; when the first baffle and the second baffle are in the clamping position, the first baffle and the second baffle are located on both sides of the rubber frame to clamp the rubber frame; when the first baffle and the second baffle are in the releasing position, the rubber frame is released.

[0059] With this design, when the first baffle plate and the second baffle plate move to the clamping position, the first baffle plate and the second baffle plate respectively abut against two sides of the rubber frame to clamp the rubber frame; when the second baffle plate and the second baffle plate move to the release position, the first baffle plate and the second baffle plate are spaced from the rubber frame to release the rubber frame, thereby the rubber frame can be smoothly clamped or released under the movement of the first baffle plate and the second baffle plate, and the structural design is relatively simple.

[0060] In practical applications, the first baffle plate and the second baffle plate can be switched between the clamping position and the releasing position by lifting, flipping, moving, etc.

[0061] In one embodiment of the present application, Figure 6 The first baffle and the second baffle can be lifted and lowered on the insertion frame bracket 41 to switch between the clamping position and the releasing position.

[0062] In this embodiment, the first baffle plate and the second baffle plate are both correspondingly provided with lifting cylinders, and the first baffle plate and the second baffle plate are driven to move up and down under the action of the lifting cylinders.

[0063] With this design, when the first baffle plate and the second baffle plate are lowered to the release position, the two sides of the plastic frame will not be blocked by the first baffle plate and the second baffle plate, making it easier for the transport mechanism 50 to transport the product after the frame is inserted.

[0064] In one embodiment of the present application, Figure 6 The frame insertion mechanism 40 also includes a frame pushing component 46, which is disposed on the frame insertion bracket 41, and the clamp fixing component 45 is transmission-connected to the frame pushing component 46, and the frame pushing component 46 is used to push the clamp fixing component 45 and the rubber frame clamped on the clamp fixing component 45 to move along the first direction.

[0065] In this embodiment, a plurality of mounting positions are provided on the plastic frame, and each mounting position is used to insert a top cover sheet, that is, a plurality of top cover sheets can be inserted into one plastic frame.

[0066] With such a design, the transport mechanism 50 first transports the rubber frame to the clamping and fixing component 45, clamps the rubber frame through the clamping and fixing component 45, and then pushes the clamping and fixing component 45 and the rubber frame clamped on the clamping and fixing component 45 to move along the first direction through the frame pushing component 46 until the rubber frame moves to the insertion position of the frame insertion bracket 41 for subsequent frame insertion actions; in addition, after the top cover piece is pushed into the rubber frame through the material pushing component 44, the frame pushing component 46 pushes the rubber frame to move one grid along the first direction, and then the next top cover piece is pushed into the next installation position of the rubber frame through the material pushing component 44, and so on, until the rubber frame is full; and, after the rubber frame is full, the full frame of products can also be pushed to the transport mechanism 50 through the frame pushing component 46, so that the transport mechanism 50 can transport the products to the unloading mechanism 60.

[0067] In practical applications, the frame pushing component 46 can be a stepping motor or a mechanism in which a motor cooperates with a transmission structure such as a gear rack, a screw nut, etc., as long as it can push the rubber frame to move along the first direction, and no specific limitation is made here.

[0068] In one embodiment of the present application, Figures 6 to 10 The flip assembly includes a flip component 42 and a positioning fixture 43; the flip component 42 is arranged on the insertion frame bracket 41 and can be flipped relative to the insertion frame bracket 41; the positioning fixture 43 and the pushing component 44 are both connected to the flip component 42, and the conveying mechanism 50 is used to convey the top cover piece to the positioning fixture 43.

[0069] With this design, the top cover piece can be transported to the positioning fixture 43 by the transport mechanism 50 so as to be positioned by the positioning fixture 43 , thereby improving the placement accuracy of the top cover piece, and then the top cover piece can be more accurately inserted into the rubber frame by the pushing component 44 .

[0070] Optionally, in order to improve the positioning effect of the positioning jig 43 on the top cover sheet, an adsorption channel may be provided in the positioning jig 43 , and the adsorption channel generates an adsorption force to adsorb and fix the top cover sheet on the positioning jig 43 .

[0071] In one embodiment of the present application, Figures 6 to 10 The frame mechanism 40 also includes a guide component 47 and an anti-flying component 48; the anti-flying component 48 is arranged on the flip component 42, and the anti-flying component 48 has a retractable anti-flying component 481. When the anti-flying component 481 is extended, it is located above the top cover sheet to resist the top cover sheet; the guide component 47 is arranged on the flip component 42 to guide the anti-flying component 481 to retract.

[0072] With such a design, after the transport mechanism 50 transports the top cover piece to the positioning jig 43, the anti-flying piece 481 of the anti-flying component 48 extends above the top cover piece to block the top cover piece, so that the top cover piece will not fly out of the positioning jig 43 during the subsequent flipping process; and under the guidance of the guide component 47, the anti-flying piece 481 can be extended and retracted more smoothly.

[0073] In one embodiment, the anti-flying component 48 may further include an anti-flying cylinder, which drives the anti-flying component 481 to extend and retract.

[0074] In actual application, the guide component 47 can be a guide bar, and the anti-flying component 481 cooperates with the guide bar so that the anti-flying component 481 can be extended and retracted along the guide bar; or, the guide component 47 can also be a guide groove, a guide rail or other structures.

[0075] In one embodiment of the present application, Figures 7 to 10 The flip component 42 includes a flip cylinder 421 and a flip shaft 422; the flip cylinder 421 is arranged on the insert frame bracket 41; the flip shaft 422 is transmission-connected to the flip cylinder 421, and the flip cylinder 421 drives the flip shaft 422 to rotate; the positioning fixture 43 is connected to the flip shaft 422 to flip along with the flip shaft 422.

[0076] With this design, when the flipping component 42 needs to be flipped, the flipping cylinder 421 drives the flipping shaft 422 to rotate. The rotation of the flipping shaft 422 can drive the positioning fixture 43, the top cover plate on the positioning fixture 43, and the pushing component 44 connected to the positioning fixture 43 to flip, thereby achieving a smooth flipping process.

[0077] In one embodiment of the present application, Figures 7 to 10 The frame insertion mechanism 40 includes at least two flipping components 42 , at least two positioning fixtures 43 and at least two pushing components 44 . Each positioning fixture 43 and a pushing component 44 are connected to a flipping component 42 to flip along with the corresponding flipping component 42 .

[0078] With this design, since the top cover piece is still being fed during the process of replacing the plastic frame after the frame is full, at least two positioning jigs 43 and at least two pushing components 44 are provided. After the previous top cover piece is moved to one of the positioning jigs 43, the next top cover piece can be moved to the remaining positioning jigs 43, thereby realizing frame replacement without stopping the machine.

[0079] In one embodiment of the present application, Figure 1The frame inserting machine 100 also includes a first loading mechanism 20, a second loading mechanism 30 and a unloading mechanism 60; the first loading mechanism 20 is arranged on the frame 10, and is used to transport the rubber frame to the first loading position; the conveying mechanism 50 is used to convey the rubber frame at the first loading position to the frame inserting position of the frame inserting bracket 41; the second loading mechanism 30 is arranged on the frame 10, and is used to transport the top cover sheet to the second loading position; the conveying mechanism 50 is used to convey the top cover sheet at the second loading position to the flip assembly; the unloading mechanism 60 is arranged on the frame 10, and the conveying mechanism is also used to transport the product on the frame inserting bracket 41 to the unloading mechanism 60.

[0080] With this design, before inserting the frame, the first loading mechanism 20 first conveys the plastic frame to the first loading position, and the second loading mechanism 30 conveys the top cover sheet to the second loading position, which makes it easier for the transport mechanism 50 to transport the plastic frame at the first loading position to the insertion position of the frame bracket 41, and to transport the top cover sheet at the second loading position to the positioning fixture 43. In addition, the transport mechanism 50 can also transport the product after the frame is inserted to the unloading mechanism 60, and finally the product is output by the unloading mechanism 60 to realize the automatic unloading process.

[0081] In practical application, the first loading mechanism 20 can be a conveyor line, or a fixture, a suction cup, or other equipment, as long as it can transport the rubber frame to the first loading position. Similarly, the second loading mechanism 30 can be a conveyor line, or a fixture, a suction cup, or other equipment, as long as it can transport the top cover sheet to the second loading position. Similarly, the unloading mechanism 60 can be a conveyor line, or a fixture, a suction cup, or other equipment, as long as it can transport the product on the insert frame bracket 41 to the unloading mechanism 60.

[0082] In one embodiment of the present application, Figure 1 The first loading mechanism 20 includes a first conveyor line 21 and a lifting component 22; the lifting component 22 is arranged near the discharge end of the first conveyor line 21, and the lifting component 22 is used to lift the rubber frame from the discharge end of the first conveyor line 21 to the first loading position.

[0083] With this design, the plastic frame is first conveyed to the discharge end by the first conveying line 21 , and then lifted to the first loading position by the lifting component 22 , so that the conveying mechanism 50 can convey the plastic frame to the insertion position of the insertion frame bracket 41 .

[0084] In practical applications, the first conveyor line 21 may be a conveyor belt, a transmission roller or the like.

[0085] In one embodiment of the present application, Figure 1 The second loading mechanism 30 includes a second conveying line for conveying the top cover sheet to the second loading position.

[0086] With such a design, the top cover piece can be smoothly conveyed to the second loading position through the second conveying line, so that the conveying mechanism 50 can convey the top cover piece to the positioning fixture 43 of the frame insertion mechanism 40 .

[0087] In practical applications, the second conveyor line may also be a conveyor belt, a transmission roller or other structures.

[0088] In one embodiment of the present application, Figure 1 A visual positioning mechanism 11 is also provided on the frame 10, and a shooting port of the visual positioning mechanism 11 faces the second loading position.

[0089] It can be understood that the visual positioning mechanism 11 can be a CCD camera, which can take a picture of the target object and obtain information such as the position and angle of the target object.

[0090] With this design, after the top cover piece is conveyed to the second loading position via the second conveyor line, the visual positioning mechanism 11 photographs the top cover piece at the second loading position and transmits the position and angle information of the product to the conveying mechanism 50, so that the conveying mechanism 50 can more accurately convey the top cover piece to the positioning fixture 43 of the insertion frame mechanism 40.

[0091] In one embodiment of the present application, Figure 3 , Figure 4 The transport mechanism 50 includes an empty frame transport component 51, a manipulator 52 and a full frame transport component 53; the empty frame transport component 51 is used to transport the rubber frame of the first loading position to the insertion frame position of the insertion frame bracket 41; the manipulator 52 is used to transport the top cover piece of the second loading position to the flip assembly; the full frame transport component 53 is used to transport the product on the insertion frame bracket 41 to the unloading mechanism 60.

[0092] It can be understood that when the empty frame transport component 51 transports the rubber frame of the first loading position to the insertion frame position of the insertion frame bracket 41, the robot 52 can simultaneously transport the top cover piece of the second loading position to the positioning fixture 43 of the flipping assembly, and the full frame transport component 53 can synchronously transport the full frame product to the unloading mechanism 60.

[0093] With such a design, the empty frame transport component 51, the manipulator 52 and the full frame transport component 53 can work synchronously to realize synchronous loading and unloading of materials, which can further improve work efficiency.

[0094] In practical application, the empty frame transport component 51 can be a transport structure such as a conveyor belt, a clamping claw, a suction cup, etc. The full frame transport component 53 can also be a transport structure such as a conveyor belt, a clamping claw, a suction cup, etc. The manipulator 52 can take the top cover sheet by clamping, adsorption, etc.

[0095] In one embodiment of the present application, Figure 1The unloading mechanism 60 includes a palletizing component 61 and a third conveying line 62 ; the transporting mechanism 50 is used to transport the products on the insert frame bracket 41 to the palletizing component 61 ; the third conveying line 62 is used to output the products on the palletizing component 61 .

[0096] With such a design, the transport mechanism 50 transports full-frame products to the palletizing component 61 in sequence for automatic palletizing at the palletizing component 61. The palletized products are finally output to the next process through the third conveyor line 62, thereby realizing an automatic palletizing process without manual palletizing, reducing labor intensity and improving work efficiency.

[0097] In actual application, the third conveyor line 62 may also be a conveyor belt, a transmission roller or other structures.

[0098] In an embodiment of the present application, the frame inserting machine 100 includes at least two frame inserting mechanisms 40 , and the at least two frame inserting mechanisms 40 are spaced apart and distributed on the rack 10 .

[0099] Such a design allows at least two frame insertion mechanisms 40 to perform frame insertion actions synchronously, and the same set of transport mechanisms 50 can be used to transport corresponding materials for at least two frame insertion mechanisms 40, thereby reducing structural design and reducing costs.

[0100] The above description is only an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, and does not limit the patent scope of the present invention. All equivalent structural changes made by using the contents of the present invention specification and drawings under the technical concept of the present invention, or directly / indirectly applied in other related technical fields are included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.
