Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of component assembly and fixation, and further relates to an assembly system for the photovoltaic field. Background Art

[0002] Currently, the installation of traditional photovoltaic brackets relies on manual operations, which not only appears inefficient in large-scale power station construction, but also poses a serious threat to the safety of construction workers at construction sites with complex terrains and uneven heights. In addition, with the increase in labor costs, the economic feasibility of this labor-dependent installation form is gradually decreasing.

[0003] Purlins and diagonal beam supports are the basic components that make up the photovoltaic bracket system, and their rapid and accurate assembly is crucial for the stability and load-bearing capacity of the entire bracket structure. However, existing installation methods cannot meet the growing demand for construction efficiency and also fail to effectively reduce the safety risks during construction. Therefore, technical improvements are needed to address the current problems. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] In view of the above technical problems, the purpose of this application is to provide an assembly system that significantly improves the assembly efficiency of purlins and diagonal beam supports, reduces high-altitude operations and manual operations, and greatly reduces the safety risks during construction.

[0005] To achieve the above purpose, this application provides an assembly system for assembling purlins and diagonal beam supports of a photovoltaic bracket, including: a feeding module and a fastening module;

[0006] The feeding module includes a first feeding component and a second feeding component. The first feeding component is used to convey the purlins, and the second feeding component is used to convey the diagonal beam supports;

[0007] The fastening module is arranged adjacent to the feeding module and cooperates with the first feeding component and the second feeding component respectively to receive and clamp the purlins and the diagonal beam supports to form the assembly frame of the photovoltaic bracket.

[0008] In some embodiments, the first feeding component includes a first front-end material taking mechanism and a first rear-end conveying mechanism;

[0009] The first front-end material taking mechanism is arranged adjacent to a first feeding table with a plurality of purlins along the length direction of the purlins, and is used to grab the purlins from the first feeding table and transfer them to the first rear-end conveying mechanism;

[0010] The first rear-end conveying mechanism is arranged between the first front-end material taking mechanism and the fastening module and is used to convey the purlins.

[0011] In some embodiments, the first rear-end conveying mechanism includes at least two horizontally parallel and spaced-apart first conveyor belts. The first conveyor belt includes two parallel first brackets and a first transmission mechanism disposed above the two first brackets. The first brackets move closer to or away from the first front-end material taking mechanism along with the movement of the first transmission mechanism. When the first rear-end conveying mechanism conveys the purlins, the purlins straddle all the first brackets and are synchronously conveyed through the first brackets.

[0012] In some embodiments, the first front-end material taking mechanism includes a movable first docking portion and a liftable first lifting portion. An electromagnetic chuck is disposed at the end of the first docking portion. The electromagnetic chuck is used to suck the purlins. Under the up-and-down movement of the first lifting portion and the movement of the first docking portion, the electromagnetic chuck drives the purlins to move in the direction of the first conveyor belt, so that the purlins can fall onto the first brackets.

[0013] In some embodiments, the second feeding assembly includes a second front-end material taking mechanism and a second rear-end conveying mechanism;

[0014] The second front-end material taking mechanism is adjacently disposed along the length direction of the diagonal beam support member on a second feeding table having a plurality of the diagonal beam support members, and is used to grab the diagonal beam support members from the second feeding table and transfer them to the second rear-end conveying mechanism;

[0015] The second rear-end conveying mechanism is disposed between the second front-end material taking mechanism and the fastening module and is used to convey the diagonal beam support members;

[0016] Wherein, there is a height difference between the second rear-end conveying mechanism and the first rear-end conveying mechanism, and the material conveying directions of the two are perpendicular to each other.

[0017] In some embodiments, the second rear-end conveying mechanism includes at least two horizontally parallel and spaced-apart second conveyor belts. The second conveyor belt includes two parallel second brackets and a second transmission mechanism disposed above the two second brackets. The second brackets move closer to or away from the second front-end material taking mechanism along with the movement of the second transmission mechanism. When the second rear-end conveying mechanism conveys the diagonal beam support members, the diagonal beam support members straddle all the second brackets and are synchronously conveyed through the second brackets.

[0018] In some embodiments, the second front-end material taking mechanism includes a movable second docking part and a liftable second lifting part. An electromagnetic chuck is provided at the end of the second docking part, and the electromagnetic chuck is used to suck the inclined beam support member. Under the up-and-down movement of the second lifting part and the movement of the second docking part, the second docking part drives the inclined beam support member to move towards the direction of the second conveyor belt, so that the inclined beam support member can fall onto the second bracket.

[0019] In some embodiments, the fastening module includes a fastening jig and a jig bracket. The fastening jig is movably arranged above the first rear-end conveying mechanism or the second rear-end conveying mechanism and is used for clamping and fixing the assembled frame.

[0020] The jig bracket is used for hanging the fastening jig, so that after the fastening jig is hung below the jig bracket, the assembled frame can be locked.

[0021] In some embodiments, the assembly system further includes a blanking module. The blanking module is arranged between the fastening jig and the jig bracket. The blanking module has a movable grasping end. In the blanking state, the grasping end grasps the fastening jig and drives the fastening jig to move, so as to convey the fastening jig to the jig bracket.

[0022] In some embodiments, the fastening jig includes at least two fastening clamping plates that are arranged in parallel with a preset interval. The adjacent fastening clamping plates are fixedly connected, and a pneumatic clamp is arranged on one side of each fastening clamping plate facing the feeding module. The pneumatic clamp is used for clamping the purlin or the inclined beam support member.

[0023] In some embodiments, the jig bracket includes a bracket main body, an annular conveying track and a docking structure. The annular conveying track is fixedly arranged on the bracket main body. The number of the docking structures is at least one and is slidably arranged on the annular conveying track. The docking structure is used for receiving the fastening jig and driving the fastening jig to move along the annular conveying track in the working state.

[0024] Compared with the prior art, an assembly system provided by the present application has the following beneficial effects:

[0025] 1. In the present application, by setting the feeding module and the fastening module, the automatic conveying and precise clamping of the purlin and the inclined beam support member are realized, thereby significantly improving the assembly efficiency of the two. Through this system, the purlin and the inclined beam support member can be quickly assembled into a stable frame structure, and then locked and fixed by manpower or machine, which is convenient for the on-site assembly of the subsequent photovoltaic bracket.

[0026] 2. In this application, the first feeding component and the second feeding component are respectively responsible for automatically picking up and conveying purlins and diagonal beam supports, reducing the need for manual operation, thereby reducing labor costs and the safety risks of construction workers. Among them, the first front-end picking mechanism and the second front-end picking mechanism are adjacent to their respective feeding platforms, ensuring that purlins and diagonal beam supports can be grasped quickly and accurately. At the same time, the first rear-end conveying mechanism and the second rear-end conveying mechanism not only achieve efficient material conveyance but also correspond to fastening jigs for clamping during the assembly of the frame.

[0027] 3. In this application, through the design of the annular conveying track and the slidable docking structure, efficient cyclic movement of the fastening jig during the locking of the assembled frame is achieved.

[0046] In addition, in the description of the present application, the terms "first", "second", etc. are only used for distinguishing descriptions and should not be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0047] In the context of the global energy transition, photovoltaic energy has become an important force driving the transformation of the energy structure due to its clean and renewable characteristics. With the continuous expansion of the scale of photovoltaic power stations, the limitations of traditional photovoltaic support installation methods have gradually emerged. As Figure 10 shown, the current construction of photovoltaic supports mainly relies on manual operations. Construction workers need to assemble the inclined beams 71, inclined supports 72, and purlins 6 one by one in variable terrains. This process not only has a high labor intensity and low efficiency, but also has a high safety risk due to the frequent high-altitude operations.

[0048] In addition, traditional installation forms are difficult to meet the requirements of rapid construction when facing the construction of large-scale photovoltaic power stations, and are also difficult to adapt to the complexity of terrains, resulting in difficult-to-guarantee construction quality. With the rising labor costs, this labor-dependent installation method is also becoming increasingly uncompetitive economically.

[0049] To solve the above problems, the present application provides an assembly system that can improve the installation efficiency and safety of photovoltaic supports and achieve the rapid and precise assembly of purlins 6, inclined beams 71, and inclined supports 72.

[0050] It should be noted that in the description of the present application, a pre-installation design is carried out for the inclined beams 71 and inclined supports 72. Referring to the attached Figure 8 and Figure 9 , by pre-assembling the inclined beams 71 and inclined supports 72 into a whole, this whole is the inclined beam support 7 shown in the attached Figure 8 , which greatly simplifies the on-site installation process and reduces the complexity and labor intensity of on-site construction.

[0051] In this application, the automated assembly of the pre-installed diagonal beam support 7 and the purlin 6 not only improves the assembly accuracy and consistency but also facilitates the subsequent rapid installation with the columns. This design makes the installation of the photovoltaic support more efficient and safe. At the same time, it reduces the dependence on the skills of construction workers and helps to solve the technical problems faced in the current installation of photovoltaic supports.

[0052] Refer to the attached drawings of the specification Figure 1 and Figure 2 , an assembly system provided by this application is used for assembling the purlin 6 and the diagonal beam support 7, and includes a feeding module and a fastening module.

[0053] The feeding module includes a first feeding component and a second feeding component, which are respectively responsible for the conveyance of the purlin 6 and the diagonal beam support 7. The first feeding component precisely grabs the purlin 6 from the storage area of the purlin 6 and conveys it to the assembly position; the second feeding component performs a similar function but for the diagonal beam support 7.

[0054] Furthermore, the fastening module is arranged at an adjacent position to the feeding module and works in coordination with the two feeding components. When the purlin 6 and the diagonal beam support 7 are conveyed to the designated positions, the fastening module is responsible for receiving and clamping these purlin 6 and diagonal beam supports 7 to form a preliminary assembled frame of the photovoltaic support. The clamping operation ensures the initial stability of the purlin 6 and the diagonal beam support 7 and lays a foundation for subsequent locking and fixing.

[0055] Under the action of the fastening module, the assembled frame can be locked and fixed manually or by machine, thus completing the assembly of the purlin 6 and the diagonal beam support 7. The automated system of the present invention not only improves the assembly efficiency and accuracy but also significantly reduces the safety risks during the construction process by reducing the direct participation of manual labor.

[0056] In addition, the assembly system in this application can be adjusted and upgraded according to different installation requirements. For example, by replacing or upgrading the fixtures in the fastening module, it can adapt to different specifications of the purlin 6 and the diagonal beam support 7, or be suitable for pre-installed purlins and main beams, etc., thereby improving the versatility and flexibility of the system.

[0057] It should be noted that in this application, the purlin 6 and the diagonal beam support 7 have forms of single or combined feeding. Through the precise control of the pneumatic clamp, the stable clamping of the components is achieved. When feeding a single component, the fastening fixture 3 specifically clamps one component (such as the purlin 6), and then the operator manually aligns and locks the other component (such as the diagonal beam support 7), ensuring the flexibility and accuracy of the assembly. When feeding combined components, the purlin 6 and the diagonal beam support 7 can be clamped and moved to the locking area simultaneously, and the operator completes the locking at one time, greatly improving the locking efficiency.

[0058] Through this design, the advantages of automation and manual operation are combined. The automation process is responsible for improving production efficiency and reducing manual handling, while the manual locking process ensures the final assembly quality, optimizes the production process, and guarantees the flexibility of assembly and the quality of the final product.

[0059] Based on the above embodiments, as Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, the first feeding component includes a first front-end material taking mechanism 11 and a first rear-end conveying mechanism 12.

[0060] The first front-end material taking mechanism 11 is used to grab the purlin 6 from the first feeding table 13, which is equipped with multiple purlins 6 for convenient continuous operation. The first front-end material taking mechanism 11 needs to ensure that the purlin 6 can be accurately grabbed to avoid damage or deformation, thus guaranteeing the assembly quality.

[0061] The grabbed purlin 6 is transferred to the first rear-end conveying mechanism 12, which is responsible for smoothly conveying the purlin 6 to the corresponding position of the fastening module. Meanwhile, in this application, the first rear-end conveying mechanism 12 needs to consider the weight and size of the load to ensure the stability and safety of the purlin 6 during the conveying process.

[0062] Optionally, the first front-end material taking mechanism 11 can be in the form of a robotic arm or a gripper, and through precise servo motor control, it can accurately grab the purlin 6. In addition, the first front-end material taking mechanism 11 can also be equipped with sensors and a vision system to identify the position and orientation of the purlin 6, realizing automatic alignment and grabbing, and reducing the dependence on manual operation.

[0063] In this embodiment, the first rear-end conveying mechanism 12 can adopt a precise conveyor belt or a roller system to ensure the smoothness of the purlin 6 during the conveying process and reduce vibration. Additionally, the conveying speed and path can be adjusted to adapt to different production rhythms and assembly requirements. On the other hand, the first rear-end conveying mechanism 12 can also be equipped with a position detection device and a correction device to ensure the precise alignment of the purlin 6 when it reaches the fastening module.

[0064] Based on the above, through the efficient operation of the first feeding component, the assembly system of this application realizes the automatic material taking and conveying of the purlin 6, significantly improves the efficiency and precision of the photovoltaic bracket assembly, reduces manual operation at the same time, and lowers the construction safety risk.

[0065] In one embodiment, as Figure 4 shown, the first rear-end conveying mechanism 12 includes at least two horizontally and spaced-apart first conveyor belts 121. When conveying the purlin 6, the purlin 6 straddles all the first conveyor belts 121, and the stable conveying of the purlin 6 is achieved through the synchronous movement of these first conveyor belts 121.

[0066] In addition, by precisely controlling the speed and synchronization of the first conveyor belt 121, it is ensured that the purlin 6 will not shift or roll during the conveying process, and it also ensures the precise fit between the purlin 6 and the inclined beam support 7 during the assembly by the fastening module. Moreover, the intervals and lengths between the first conveyor belts 121 can be adjusted according to different purlin 6 sizes and production requirements, improving the adaptability and flexibility of the assembly system in this application.

[0067] Among them, the first conveyor belt 121 includes two first brackets 1211 arranged in parallel and a first transmission mechanism 1212 above the two first brackets 1211. The first brackets 1211 not only provide stable support for the purlin 6, but also realize the dynamic adjustment of the motion state through the first transmission mechanism 1212 arranged above.

[0068] Specifically, under the driving action of the first transmission mechanism 1212, the first brackets 1211 approach or move away from the first front-end material taking mechanism 11 as needed, ensuring the precise positioning and synchronous conveying of the purlin 6 during the conveying process. When the purlin 6 is grabbed by the first front-end material taking mechanism 11 and placed on the first brackets 1211, the first transmission mechanism 1212 is immediately started, driving the first brackets 1211 and the purlin 6 above them to move towards the fastening module. During this process, the purlin 6 straddles all the first brackets 1211 and is smoothly conveyed to the assembly position through the synchronous movement of the first brackets 1211.

[0069] Furthermore, a number of liftable positioning blocks are provided on the first conveyor belt 121. The positioning blocks are distributed along the length direction of the first conveyor belt 121 and are precisely controlled by the control end to realize the automatic adjustment of the intervals between the purlins 6.

[0070] Specifically, after the first front-end material taking mechanism 11 places the purlin 6 on the first conveyor belt 121, the first conveyor belt 121 will convey the purlin 6 synchronously. During this process, the liftable positioning blocks rise according to the preset interval distance, providing an accurate stop point for the placement of the purlin 6. When the purlin 6 reaches the corresponding stop point, the positioning blocks will rise correspondingly and contact the side wall of the purlin 6, preventing the further movement of the purlin 6, thus ensuring the uniform and precise intervals between the purlins 6.

[0071] By setting the liftable positioning blocks in this embodiment, the assembly system can adapt to purlins 6 of different lengths and different interval requirements, and can realize automatic adjustment without manual intervention. The lifting action of the positioning blocks is precisely controlled by the signal of the control end, ensuring the consistency and accuracy of the intervals between the purlins 6 during the conveying process. In addition, the design of the positioning blocks takes into account durability and reliability, and can maintain stability during frequent lifting actions, reducing the maintenance requirements and failure rates.

[0072] In one embodiment, the first front-end material taking mechanism 11 in the above embodiment is used to transfer the purlin 6 from the first feeding table 13 to the first conveyor belt 121.

[0073] Specifically, as Figure 6 and Figure 11 shown, the first front-end material taking mechanism 11 includes a movable first docking part 111 and a liftable first lifting part 112, and the two work together to improve the flexibility and accuracy of material taking.

[0074] An electromagnetic chuck 1110 is assembled at the end of the first docking part 111. According to the actual situation and requirements, the adsorption force of the electromagnetic chuck 1110 can be adjusted by the control unit to adapt to purlins 6 of different sizes and weights. When the electromagnetic chuck 1110 successfully sucks the purlin 6, the first lifting part 112 starts to move up and down, driving the first docking part 111 and the adsorbed purlin 6 to move vertically. At the same time, the first docking part 111 can generate a certain translational motion or rotation to ensure that the purlin 6 can be safely and accurately transferred from the material taking position to the first conveyor belt.

[0075] Through the design of this embodiment, the automation degree of the material taking process and the operation safety are significantly improved. Since the need for manual direct handling of purlins is reduced, the safety risk of construction workers is lowered. At the same time, the use of the electromagnetic chuck 1110 avoids damage to the surface of the purlin 6 and protects the integrity of the material.

[0076] In another embodiment, the setting of the second feeding component is similar to that of the first feeding component, but the second feeding component is used for the automatic material taking and conveying of the diagonal beam support 7. The second feeding component includes a second front-end material taking mechanism 21 and a second rear-end conveying mechanism 22.

[0077] As Figure 2 and Figure 5 shown, the second front-end material taking mechanism 21 is arranged adjacent to the second feeding table 23. The second feeding table 23 pre-stores a number of diagonal beam supports 7. At the same time, the second front-end material taking mechanism 21 can be provided with a specific robotic arm or gripper, and through precise servo motor control, accurately grasp the diagonal beam support 7 and transfer it from the second feeding table 23 to the second rear-end conveying mechanism 22. Of course, similar to the first front-end material taking mechanism 11, a movable second docking part (similar to the first docking part 111, not shown in the drawings) and a movable second lifting part (similar to the first lifting part 112, not shown in the drawings) can be provided, and the diagonal beam support 7 is adsorbed and fixed by the adsorption ability of the electromagnetic chuck 1110, and the diagonal beam support 7 is transferred to the second rear-end conveying mechanism 22 through the coordinated movement of the second docking part and the second lifting part.

[0078] The second rear-end conveying mechanism 22 is located between the second front-end material taking mechanism 21 and the fastening module, and is responsible for smoothly conveying the inclined beam support 7 from the material taking position to the corresponding position of the fastening module. On the other hand, the second rear-end conveying mechanism 22 may adopt a conveyor belt or roller system similar to that of the first rear-end conveying mechanism 12, but will be adjusted and optimized according to the characteristics of the inclined beam support 7.

[0079] Furthermore, the first rear-end conveying mechanism 12 and the second rear-end conveying mechanism 22 have a height difference, and the material conveying directions of the two are perpendicular to each other, which improves the space utilization rate to a certain extent, and also improves the flexibility and efficiency of assembly.

[0080] Specifically, the height of the second rear-end conveying mechanism 22 is set slightly higher than that of the first rear-end conveying mechanism 12. Such a design enables the inclined beam support 7 to be directly conveyed above the purlin 6 through the second rear-end conveying mechanism 22, facilitating the next fastening operation. This vertical conveying method allows two components to be conveyed and assembled from different directions at the same time, greatly reducing the waiting and adjustment time during the assembly process.

[0081] In addition, this vertical layout also simplifies the working process of the fastening module. Since the conveying paths of the inclined beam support 7 and the purlin 6 have been preset, the fastening module can dock and fix these components more precisely. Such a design reduces the errors that may occur during the assembly process and improves the accuracy and stability of the assembly.

[0082] In one embodiment, the second rear-end conveying mechanism 22 includes at least two horizontally and spaced second conveyor belts 221. When the inclined beam support 7 is grabbed by the second front-end material taking mechanism 21, it will be placed on the second conveyor belt 221. The design of the second conveyor belt 221 allows the inclined beam support 7 to straddle it, and realizes stable conveying through synchronous movement. This synchronous conveying ensures the smoothness and consistency of the inclined beam support 7 during movement, and reduces the damage that may be caused by vibration or misalignment during the conveying process.

[0083] Among them, the spaced arrangement of the second conveyor belts 221 provides sufficient support area for the inclined beam support 7, ensuring stability during the conveying process, solving the problems of low efficiency and insufficient safety in the traditional manual conveying process, and reducing the risk of construction workers working at high altitudes. At the same time, the precise synchronous conveying improves the assembly accuracy, ensuring the quality and reliability of the subsequent assembled photovoltaic support.

[0084] Furthermore, the second conveyor belt 221 includes two second brackets 2211 arranged in parallel and a second transmission mechanism 2212 arranged above the two second brackets 2211. The second bracket 2211 moves closer to or away from the second front-end material taking mechanism 21 as the second transmission mechanism 2212 moves, thereby realizing the reception and transportation of the inclined beam support 7.

[0085] After the diagonal beam support members 7 are grabbed by the second front-end material taking mechanism 21, they will be placed on the second bracket 2211. At this time, the second bracket 2211 moves synchronously with the movement of the second transmission mechanism 2212 toward the direction of the fastening module, thereby driving the movement of the diagonal beam support members 7, laying the foundation for the subsequent fastening of the diagonal beam support members 7 by the fastening module; at the same time, the diagonal beam support members 7 can span all the second brackets 2211 and achieve stable synchronous transportation, which not only ensures the stability of the diagonal beam support members 7 during transportation, but also ensures that they can accurately reach the predetermined assembly position.

[0086] In one embodiment, based on the above embodiment, the second front-end material picking mechanism 21 includes a movable second docking portion (not shown in the drawings) and a liftable second lifting portion (not shown in the drawings). It should be noted that in this embodiment, the setting of the second front-end material picking mechanism 21 is similar to the setting of the first front-end material picking mechanism 11 in the above embodiment, and can be understood by referring to the structural setting of the first front-end material picking mechanism 11 in the drawings.

[0087] Specifically, the second docking portion is used to dock with the diagonal beam support member 7. During the docking process, the second lifting portion is responsible for vertical movement to lift the diagonal beam support member 7 from the second feeding platform 23 to an appropriate height. At the same time, the second docking portion can move horizontally or rotate, so as to quickly and accurately switch between diagonal beam support members 7 at different positions, ensuring that each diagonal beam support member 7 can be accurately grasped.

[0088] Once the diagonal beam support member 7 is stably docked by the second docking portion, the second lifting portion can continue to lift the second docking portion and the diagonal beam support member 7 thereon to a height flush with the second bracket 2211, at which time the second bracket 2211 can be appropriately extended to a certain length. Subsequently, the second docking portion moves or rotates in the direction of the second bracket 2211, so that the subsequent diagonal beam support member 7 is smoothly moved to the top of the second bracket 2211 and accurately placed on the second bracket 2211.

[0089] In addition, in one embodiment, the fastening module includes a fastening fixture 3 and a fixture bracket 4. The fastening fixture 3 is movably arranged above the first rear-end conveying mechanism 12 or the second rear-end conveying mechanism 22, so that the fastening fixture 3 can directly align with and clamp the purlin 6 and the diagonal beam support 7 synchronously conveyed in place by the conveyor belt. Once the components are in place, the fastening fixture 3 firmly clamps them, providing the necessary stability for assembling the frame until the final locking operation is carried out.

[0090] The function of the fixture bracket 4 is to suspend the fastening fixture 3, providing the necessary support and positioning, so that the fastening fixture 3 can be flexibly adjusted according to needs to adapt to components of different sizes and shapes. After the fastening fixture 3 is suspended on the fixture bracket 4, the operator can conveniently perform manual locking on the assembled frame. Although this step still requires manual operation, due to the precise positioning of the fixture bracket 4, the locking process is more simple and fast.

[0091] It can be understood that the setting of the fastening module can solve the problems of inaccurate alignment and insecure fixation that may occur in the traditional assembly process. Through the precise clamping of the fastening fixture 3 and the stable support of the fixture bracket 4, the stability of the assembled frame before locking is ensured, reducing errors and rework in the assembly process.

[0092] In addition, the design of the fastening module also improves the safety of the assembly process. With the assistance of the fixture bracket 4, the operator can perform the locking operation more safely and comfortably, reducing the risk of working at heights.

[0093] Based on the above embodiment, as Figure 7 shown, the fixture bracket 4 includes a bracket main body 41, an annular conveying track 42, and a docking structure 43 to achieve the efficient use of the fastening fixture 3. The annular conveying track 42 is fixedly arranged on the bracket main body 41, forming a continuous and unobstructed working path, ensuring that the fastening fixture 3 can move smoothly and continuously.

[0094] At least one docking structure 43 that can slide along the annular conveying track 42 is arranged on the fixture bracket 4. These docking structures 43 are responsible for receiving the fastening fixture 3 and driving it to perform circular motion along the annular conveying track 42 in the working state, which is beneficial to improving the flexibility and efficiency of the assembly.

[0095] Specifically, the fastening fixture 3 on the fixture support 4 carries the unfastened assembled frame and enters the locking area for operation. On one side, the fastening fixture 3 fixes the assembled frame in place and completes the locking operation through the locking mechanism. Once the assembled frame is locked, the fastening fixture 3 moves along the annular conveying track 42 to the other side, and a new unfastened assembled frame is pushed into place, ready for the next locking operation. Meanwhile, on the other side, the already locked assembled frame is removed from the fastening fixture 3. After unloading the assembled frame, the fastening fixture 3 becomes in an empty state and continues to rotate along the annular conveying track 42. After one cycle, it returns to the starting position. The new purlins 6 and diagonal beam supports 7 are in place, and the fastening fixture 3 clamps these components again to start a new fastening cycle.

[0096] It can be understood that through this design in this embodiment, the continuity of the assembly process is ensured, the idle time of the fastening fixture 3 is reduced, and through the automated cycling mechanism, the need for manual operation is reduced. This not only improves the operation efficiency but also reduces the labor cost and potential safety risks. In addition, the recycling design reduces the wear of the fastening fixture 3 and extends the service life of the equipment.

[0097] In another embodiment, based on the above embodiment, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, the assembly system includes a blanking module 5, which is located between the fastening fixture 3 and the fixture support 4 and is used to transfer the fastening fixture 3 to the fixture support 4.

[0098] Among them, the blanking module 5 has a movable grasping end, and the grasping end can flexibly engage with the fastening fixture 3. In the blanking state, the grasping end grabs the fastening fixture 3 and then transports the fastening fixture 3 from the assembly position to the fixture support 4 through precisely controlled movement, ensuring the accurate placement of the fastening fixture 3 and facilitating the subsequent manual locking operation.

[0099] Through this design of the blanking module 5, the conveying process of the fastening fixture 3 becomes automated and controllable, reducing the dependence on manual operation. This automated conveying not only increases the assembly speed but also reduces the risk of assembly errors or damages caused by improper manual operation.

[0100] In addition, the design of the movable grasping end of the blanking module 5 also provides a certain degree of flexibility, allowing adjustment according to the specific position and state of the fastening fixture 3. This flexibility enables the blanking module 5 to adapt to different working conditions and component sizes, enhancing the versatility and adaptability of the entire assembly system.

[0101] In one embodiment, different from the above embodiment, the fastening fixture 3 includes at least two fastening clamping plates 31 that are arranged in parallel with a preset interval, and are fixedly connected between adjacent fastening clamping plates 31. And a pneumatic clamp (not shown in the figure) is provided on one side of each fastening clamping plate 31 facing the feeding module.

[0102] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the clamping of the purlin 6 or the diagonal beam support 7 is realized by setting the pneumatic clamp, providing the necessary clamping force to ensure the stability and accurate alignment of the purlin 6 and the slope support 7 to be installed during the assembly process. On the other hand, the preset interval between the fastening clamping plates 31 ensures that the fastening fixture 3 can adapt to purlins 6 and slope supports 7 of different lengths, and at the same time allows multiple purlins 6 and slope supports 7 to be clamped and fixed simultaneously, thereby improving the flexibility of the assembly line.

[0103] The setting of the pneumatic clamp not only improves the flexibility of clamping, but also increases the response speed of the fastening fixture 3. By adjusting the pneumatic pressure, the purlin 6 and the slope support 7 can be quickly clamped or released, thus improving the efficiency of the assembly process. In addition, the use of the pneumatic clamp also reduces mechanical wear and lowers the maintenance cost and complexity.

[0104] This design of the fastening fixture 3 in this embodiment solves the problems of unstable clamping and difficult alignment of the purlin 6 and the slope support 7 in the traditional assembly process. Through the precise clamping of the pneumatic clamp, the stability of the purlin 6 and the diagonal beam support 7 during the assembly process is ensured, and the assembly accuracy and production efficiency are improved.

[0105] In other embodiments, by reasonably setting assembly configurations such as the feeding module, the blanking module, and the fastening module, the pre-installation of the preliminary support frame of structures such as the fixed support and the tracking support can be completed on the assembly system, not limited to the connection and fixation of structural members such as purlins, main beams, and diagonal support members, which will not be elaborated here.

[0106] It should be noted that the above embodiments can be freely combined as needed. The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present application. It should be pointed out that for those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the principle of the present application, several improvements and refinements can still be made, and these improvements and refinements should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present application.
