[0041] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to be used to explain the present invention, but cannot be understood as limiting the present invention.

[0042] The present invention is based on the inventor's discovery and understanding of the following facts and problems:

[0043] In the prior art, such as Figure 2As shown in Figure (a), in the scenario where the humanoid robot assembles the car logo, if the robot arm 300 is used directly to pick up the car logo according to the traditional process, the depth of the humanoid fingers grasping the car logo cannot be kept consistent. When some humanoid fingers grasp too deep, in the next step of the car logo pressing down and aligning the assembly process, the fingers will contact the assembly position of the car hood before the car logo locating column, which can easily cause the car logo posture to deflect and dislocate during the car logo assembly process, thereby causing the failure of the humanoid robot's autonomous alignment assembly, and ultimately resulting in rework and scrapping of materials.

[0044] The assembly fixture 100 of the embodiment of the utility model is used to cooperate with a manipulator 300 having multiple clamping parts 301, and the multiple clamping parts 301 are used to clamp the parts to be assembled 200. The manipulator 300 can be a manipulator 300 that imitates a human hand. The manipulator 300 can have five human-like fingers, and the human-like fingers are the clamping parts 301. During operation, the parts to be assembled 200 can be grasped or clamped by bending the five human-like fingers. The parts to be assembled 200 can be parts such as car logos, and in some other scenarios, the parts to be assembled 200 can also be parts such as decorative parts and electrical components.

[0045] like Figure 1 As shown, the assembly fixture 100 of the embodiment of the utility model includes a bearing member 1 and a limiting member 2 .

[0046] The carrier 1 is provided with a carrier portion 11, and the carrier portion 11 is used to place the to-be-assembled part 200. For example, the carrier 1 can be generally a plate-shaped structure, the carrier 1 can be arranged horizontally, the carrier portion 11 can be integrally formed on the top side of the carrier 1, and the shape of the carrier portion 11 can be adapted to the shape of the above-mentioned to-be-assembled part 200. When in use, the to-be-assembled part 200 can be directly placed on the carrier portion 11.

[0047] The limiting member 2 is provided with a matching hole 21, and the bearing part 11 is assembled in the matching hole 21, and the portion of the limiting member 2 around the matching hole 21 is used to stop with the end of each clamping part 301 when the robot clamps the assembly part 200 to make the clamping depth of the multiple clamping parts 301 to clamp the assembly part 200 to be consistent.

[0048] For example, the stopper 2 may also be a plate-like structure, the stopper 2 may be arranged horizontally, and the stopper 2 may be located above the bearing member 1. The stopper 2 is provided with a matching hole 21, and the matching hole 21 may penetrate the stopper 2 in the up-down direction. During assembly, the bearing portion 11 may be inserted into the matching hole 21 of the stopper 2 from below. After assembly, the upper end surface of the bearing portion 11 may be slightly lower than the upper surface of the stopper 2. In some other embodiments, the upper end surface of the bearing portion 11 may also be flush with the upper surface of the stopper 2 or slightly higher than the upper surface of the stopper 2.

[0049] When the robot 300 is gripping the component 200 to be assembled, Figure 2 As shown in the middle figure (b), the part 200 to be assembled can be surrounded by a plurality of clamping parts 301 and clamped and fixed by the plurality of clamping parts 301. At this time, the free end (bottom end) of each clamping part 301 can be stopped against the upper surface of the limiting member 2. By means of the stopping effect of the limiting member 2 and the clamping part 301, the distance between the contact point between each clamping part 301 and the part 200 to be assembled and the free end of the clamping part 301 can be roughly consistent, that is, the plurality of clamping parts 301 can be roughly in the same horizontal plane under the action of the limiting member 2, thereby maintaining the consistency of the clamping depth (grasping depth) of the plurality of clamping parts 301.

[0050] The assembly jig 100 of the embodiment of the utility model achieves consistency in the depth of each humanoid finger when the humanoid finger of the full-size humanoid robot picks up the car logo by optimizing the design of the assembly jig 100, greatly improving the full-size humanoid robot's humanoid car logo grasping stability and the success rate of subsequent alignment and assembly, significantly eliminating rework and material scrap caused by the deviation of the car logo posture during lower assembly alignment, thereby improving assembly efficiency and reducing assembly costs.

[0051] In some embodiments, the assembly jig 100 includes a monitoring component 3 , at least a portion of the monitoring component 3 is disposed on the carrying portion 11 , and the monitoring component 3 is used to monitor whether the component 200 to be assembled is assembled to the carrying portion 11 .

[0052] For example, Figure 1 As shown, the monitoring component 3 may be a position switch, and the monitoring component 3 may be disposed below the carrier 1, and a portion of the monitoring component 3 may be assembled in the carrier 11 and may be exposed from the top side of the carrier 11. When the component 200 to be assembled is placed on the carrier 11, the position switch may be subjected to pressure, under which the position switch may be turned on or off, thereby generating a corresponding electrical signal, by which it may be determined whether the component 200 to be assembled is in place.

[0053] In some embodiments, the monitoring component 3 may also be a pressure sensor, a photoelectric sensor, a magnetic induction component, etc. For example, when the monitoring component 3 is a photoelectric sensor, the placement of the component 200 to be assembled will block the monitoring component 3, thereby causing a decrease in light intensity. This change can also be used to monitor whether the component 200 to be assembled is in place. The above-mentioned pressure sensor can monitor whether the component 200 to be assembled is in place by monitoring pressure changes, while the magnetic induction component can monitor whether the component 200 to be assembled is in place by monitoring magnetic field changes.

[0054] In some embodiments, the assembly jig 100 includes a temperature control component 4 , at least a portion of which is connected to the carrier 1 and is used to heat and keep the adhesive of the assembly 200 warm.

[0055] For example, the component 200 to be assembled may be a car logo, which needs to be pasted to a corresponding position on the car body by adhesives such as adhesives. The temperature control component 4 can achieve temperature control so that the adhesive can be maintained within a suitable temperature range, thereby ensuring the structural strength of the component 200 to be assembled after bonding.

[0056] In some embodiments, the temperature control component 4 includes a heating module 41 and a heat conductor 42. The heating module 41 is used to generate heat. The heat conductor 42 is connected between the heating module 41 and the carrier 1, and the heat conductor 42 is used to transmit the heat generated by the heating module 41 to the carrier part 11 of the carrier 1.

[0057] For example, the heating module 41 may be an electric heating module, the heat conductor 42 may be a material with good thermal conductivity such as copper, and the heat conductor 42 may be assembled between the heating module 41 and the carrier 1. When in use, the heating module 41 may be connected to a power source, thereby causing the heating module 41 to generate heat, and the generated heat may be conducted to the bearing portion of the carrier 1 through the heat conductor 42, thereby achieving heating and heat preservation of the adhesive.

[0058] In some embodiments, the assembly fixture 100 includes a housing 6, the housing 6 is provided with an opening, the stopper 2 is sealed at the opening, and the heat conducting member 42 is installed in the housing 6. Figure 1 As shown, the housing 6 can be generally square-shaped, the top of the housing 6 can be open, and the stopper 2 can be fixed to the top of the housing 6 by fasteners such as screws to seal the opening. Figure 3 As shown, the above-mentioned carrier 1, heat-conducting member 42, heating module 41, etc. can all be installed in the shell 6, and the protection effect can be achieved by means of the shell 6.

[0059] In some embodiments, the heat conducting member 42 includes a heat conducting plate and a heat conducting column. The heat conducting plate is connected and fixed to the shell 6, and the heat conducting plate and the supporting member 1 are arranged at intervals. The heat conducting column is connected between the heat conducting plate and the supporting member 1, and a limit block 5 is provided between the heat conducting plate and the supporting member 1 for supporting and separating the heat conducting plate and the supporting member 1.

[0060] For example, the heat conducting plate may be a copper plate, the heat conducting column may also be a copper column, a groove may be provided on the inner peripheral wall of the housing 6, the circumferential edge of the heat conducting plate may be embedded in the corresponding groove, and the heat conducting plate may be connected and fixed to the housing 6 by fasteners such as screws. The heat conducting column may extend in the up-down direction, the top end of the heat conducting column may be connected to the bearing member 1, specifically, may be connected to the corresponding bearing portion 11 of the bearing member 1, and the bottom end of the heat conducting column may be connected to the heat conducting plate or integrally formed.

[0061] The heating module 41 may be located at the bottom side of the heat conducting plate and connected to the heat conducting plate. When in use, the heat generated by the heating module 41 may be transferred to the heat conducting plate and then conducted to the bearing portion 11 via the heat conducting column.

[0062] like Figure 1 As shown, the limit block 5 can be a rectangular block. The limit block 5 can be clamped between the carrier 1 and the heat conducting plate. The limit block 5 can also have good thermal conductivity. Therefore, the limit block 5 can play the role of supporting and separating the carrier 1 and the heat conducting plate on the one hand, and can also enhance the thermal conductivity effect on the other hand.

[0063] In some embodiments, the outer wall of the housing 6 is provided with a handle 61. Figure 1 As shown, two handles 61 may be provided, and the two handles 61 may be pivotally assembled on the left and right sides of the housing 6 respectively. The provision of the handles 61 facilitates the movement of the housing 6 .

[0064] In some embodiments, the housing 6 is provided with a power interface 62. For example, Figure 4 As shown, a groove may be provided on the front side wall of the shell 6, and a power interface 62 may be embedded in the front side wall of the shell 6. The power interface 62 is connected to the above-mentioned heating module 41. When in use, power can be supplied to the heating module 41 through the power interface 62.

[0065] In some embodiments, the assembly jig 100 includes a timer 7, which is disposed on the housing 6 and is used to control the operating time of the temperature control component 4. Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, two timers 7 can be provided, and the two timers 7 can be arranged on the right side of the above-mentioned heating module 41. The heating module 41 and the two timers 7 can be arranged at intervals in the left and right directions. The timer 7 can also be electrically connected to the above-mentioned power interface 62, so that the timer 7 can also be powered by the power interface 62.

[0066] The setting of the timer 7 can realize the control of the operating time of the above-mentioned temperature control component 4, thereby ensuring that the temperature is always maintained within a suitable range.

[0067] In some embodiments, the housing 6 is provided with a plurality of openings 63, and the heating module 41 and the timer 7 are both mounted at the corresponding openings 63. Figure 1 As shown, three openings 63 may be provided on the rear side wall of the housing 6, and the three openings 63 may all be rectangular openings 63. The above-mentioned heating module 41 and the two timers 7 may be assembled in the three openings 63 in a one-to-one correspondence, as shown in FIG. Figure 5 As shown, the embedded assembly of the heating module 41 and the timer 7 is facilitated.

[0068] In some embodiments, the assembly fixture 100 includes a heat dissipation fan 8 , which is assembled in the housing 6 , and a plurality of heat dissipation holes 64 arranged opposite to the heat dissipation fan 8 are provided on the housing wall of the housing 6 .

[0069] For example, Figure 3 As shown, the cooling fan 8 can be installed in the housing 6 and connected to the bottom wall of the housing 6, as shown in FIG.

In the up-down direction, the heat dissipation fan 8 may be arranged directly opposite to the plurality of heat dissipation holes 64. When the heat dissipation fan 8 is started, the air in the housing 6 may be discharged through the heat dissipation holes 64 under the action of the heat dissipation fan 8, thereby achieving a rapid heat dissipation and temperature reduction effect, and avoiding the situation of excessive temperature.

[0070] In some embodiments, the bearing portion is provided with a plug hole 111, and the plug hole 111 is used for plugging and assembling the plug part on the assembly 200. Figure 4 As shown, the plug hole 111 can be a stepped hole, and two plug holes 111 can be provided on the bearing part, and the two plug holes 111 can be arranged diagonally. The vehicle logo waiting to be assembled part 200 can be provided with two plug posts (i.e., the plug-in part), and the two plug posts can also be stepped columns. After the to-be-assembled part 200 is placed on the bearing part, the two plug posts can be plugged and matched in the corresponding plug holes 111 one by one, thereby ensuring the stability of the placement of the to-be-assembled part 200.

[0071] In some embodiments, the bearing portion 11 and the matching hole 21 are provided in plurality, and the plurality of bearing portions 11 are assembled in the plurality of matching holes 21 in a one-to-one correspondence. Figure 1 As shown, the bearing member 1 may be provided with two bearing parts 11, which may be arranged at intervals in the left-right direction, and the limiting member 2 may be provided with two matching holes 21.
