The described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments.

[0036] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed invention, but rather merely represents selected embodiments of the present invention. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0037] Example 1

[0038] refer to Figures 1 to 4 The automatic assembly accessory equipment provided in this embodiment includes a product positioning mechanism 1, an accessory positioning mechanism 2 and a mounting plate 3. The product positioning mechanism 1 can be movably connected to the mounting plate 3, and the accessory positioning mechanism 2 is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 3.

[0039] The product positioning mechanism 1 includes a drive module 11 and a product positioning platform 12 connected to the drive end of the drive module 11. The accessory positioning mechanism 2 includes an accessory mounting base 21. The drive module 11 is used to drive the product positioning platform 12 toward or away from the accessory mounting base 21. In some embodiments, the drive module 11 can be a robotic arm, a drive motor, or a drive cylinder. The drive module 11 can drive the product positioning platform 12 to move horizontally, vertically, or along other paths. In this embodiment, the drive module 11 drives the product positioning platform 12 to move horizontally.

[0040] The product positioning platform 12 is provided with a support slope 121, and the accessory fixing seat 21 is provided with a plurality of accessory placement positions 211. Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the product includes a product body A and an accessory installation position B. The accessory installation position B is set at the end of the product body A and has a certain angle with the product body A. During operation, multiple accessories C are placed horizontally on the accessory placement position 211, and the product is placed on the product positioning platform 12. The product body A is located on the supporting slope 121, and the accessory installation position B and multiple accessories C are located in the same horizontal direction. The driving module 11 drives the product positioning platform 12 to approach the accessory fixing seat 21 in the horizontal direction, so that multiple accessories C can be accurately pressed on the accessory installation position B at the same time, completing the automated assembly of the product and accessories.

[0041] The provision of the support slope 121 can better adapt to the shape of the product, allowing the product to be accurately aligned with the accessories and assembled, thereby improving the accuracy of the automated assembly operation. By providing multiple accessory placement positions 211, it is possible to simultaneously assemble multiple accessories of the product, which not only effectively improves the efficiency of the assembly operation, but also helps to reduce production costs and improve production efficiency. At the same time, because the simultaneous assembly of multiple accessories of the product is completed on the same equipment, it can eliminate the deviation caused by multiple operations on multiple assembly equipment, thereby effectively improving the accuracy of the automated installation and helping to improve product quality.

[0042] In some embodiments, the product positioning platform 12 may be provided with components for limiting and fixing the product, such as adsorption components, clamps or limiting retaining walls, etc.; the accessory placement position 211 may also be provided with adsorption components or limiting grooves for limiting and fixing the accessories; multiple accessory placement positions 211 can be used to place the same type of accessories, or can be used to place different accessories separately.

[0043] In some embodiments, the mounting plate 3 is provided with a mounting base 31. The angle α formed between the supporting inclined surface 121 and the mounting base 31 is 20 to 45 degrees. This allows the mounting plate 3 to adapt to the shape of the product while preventing excessive tilt that could cause the product to shift or fall during assembly, thereby ensuring stable operation of the automated assembly process.

[0044] The automatic assembly accessory equipment of this embodiment can better adapt to the shape of the product by setting the supporting inclined surface, make the pairing of the product and the accessories more accurate, and improve the assembly quality; by setting multiple accessory placement positions, it can improve the efficiency of the automatic installation of product accessories and reduce production costs. At the same time, it can also improve the accuracy of the installation of product accessories and improve product quality; by setting the inclination angle of the supporting inclined surface, it can adapt to the shape of the product while preventing the product from shifting or falling during the assembly operation, thereby ensuring the stable operation of the automatic assembly operation.

[0045] Example 2

[0046] As a further optimization of Example 1, refer to Figures 5 to 8 The product positioning platform 12 includes a first end 122, a second end 123 and a side portion 124. The first end 122 is closer to the accessory fixing seat 21 than the second end 123. The side portion 124 is located on both sides of the first end 122 and the second end 123, and the cross-section of the side portion 124 is trapezoidal.

[0047] In some embodiments, limit blocks 125 are provided on the first end 122, the second end 123, and the side 124. These limit blocks 125 surround a product placement area 126, which is located on the support slope 121. The dimensions of the product placement area 126 match the dimensions of the product. When a product is placed on the product placement area 126, the limit blocks 125 surrounding the product placement area 126 abut against the sides of the product, thereby limiting and securing the product, effectively preventing the product from shifting or misaligning during operation, and ensuring the quality of automated installation.

[0048] In this embodiment, two stoppers 125 are provided on the first end portion 122, and one stopper 125 is provided on each of the second end portion 123 and the side portion 124. It should be noted that the two stoppers 125 on the first end portion 122 are spaced apart, and there is also a gap between the stopper 125 on the first end portion 122 and the stopper on the side portion 124. This allows space to be formed on the first end portion 122 for the accessory mounting position B to be exposed, thereby preventing the stopper 125 on the first end portion 122 from interfering with the installation process of the product and the accessory, thereby facilitating smooth installation of the product and the accessory.

[0049] In some embodiments, the accessory holder 21 is a block-shaped structure, and the length of the accessory holder 21 is less than or equal to the length of the first end 122. By setting the length of the accessory holder 21 to be less than or equal to the first end 122, the force exerted by the accessory holder 21 and the product positioning platform 12 when cooperating with each other can be more concentrated, thereby improving the stability of the automated assembly process.

[0050] In some embodiments, an accessory retaining groove 212 is formed in the accessory placement position 211. The shape of the accessory retaining groove 212 matches the shape of the accessory. It should be noted that when the accessory is placed horizontally in the accessory retaining groove 212, the lower half of the accessory is surrounded by the accessory retaining groove 212, and the part of the accessory used for product connection is exposed outside the accessory retaining groove 212. This allows the accessory retaining groove 212 to better retain and secure the accessory without interfering with the installation of the product and accessory, ensuring the normal and stable operation of the automated assembly.

[0051] In this embodiment, there are three accessory placement positions 211. The center position 211 is used to place a rubber plug, while the side positions 211 are used to place metal buckles. Driven by the drive module 11, the product positioning platform 12 moves toward the accessory mounting base 21, causing the rubber plug and metal buckle to be pressed into place on the corresponding accessory mounting positions of the product.

[0052] As a further optimization, a first sensor 13 is provided on the product positioning platform 12, and the first sensor 13 is used to sense whether the product is placed in place. A second sensor 22 is provided on the accessory placement position 211, and the second sensor 22 is used to sense whether the accessory is placed in place. In some embodiments, an indicator light for displaying the sensing result of the first sensor 13 may be provided on the product positioning platform 12. When the first sensor 13 senses that the product is not placed in place, the indicator light is red, and the device is turned on at this time, but the device does not operate; when the first sensor 13 senses that the product is placed in place, the indicator light is green, and the device is turned on at this time, and the device operates normally. An indicator light for displaying the sensing result of the second sensor 22 may also be provided on the accessory placement position 211. Its working mechanism is the same as that of the indicator light on the product positioning platform 12, and will not be repeated again.

[0053] The automatic assembly accessory equipment of this embodiment can better limit and fix the product by setting a limit block, prevent the product from being offset or misplaced during the installation operation, and ensure the quality of the automated installation operation; by setting the length of the accessory fixing seat to be less than or equal to the first end, the force of the accessory fixing seat and the product positioning platform can be more concentrated, thereby improving the stability of the assembly process; by setting the accessory limiting groove, the accessory can be better limited and fixed, and the accuracy of the installation of the product accessories can be improved, which is conducive to improving the quality of operation production; by setting a first sensor on the product positioning platform and a second sensor on the accessory placement position, the product placement status on the product positioning platform and the accessory placement status on the accessory placement position can be sensed in real time, thereby ensuring the normal and stable operation of the equipment and the quality of operation production.

[0054] Example 3

[0055] As a further optimization of Example 2, refer to Figure 9 The drive module 11 includes a drive cylinder 111, a sliding rail 112, and a slider 113. Both the drive cylinder 111 and the sliding rail 112 are mounted on the mounting plate 3, with the sliding rail 112 positioned along the drive direction of the drive cylinder 111. The drive end of the drive cylinder 111 is connected to the product positioning platform 12. The slider 113 is mounted on the product positioning platform 12 and is slidably connected to the sliding rail 112. Driven by the drive cylinder 111, the product positioning platform 12 moves along the sliding rail 112 toward the accessory holder 21.

[0056] In some embodiments, the automatic assembly equipment further includes a base 4 and support columns 5. The base 4 is located below the mounting plate 3, and the support columns 5 connect the mounting plate 3 and the base 4. The support columns 5 connect the mounting plate 3 and the base 4, thereby creating a storage space between the mounting plate 3 and the base 4. This storage space can be used to place and arrange the wiring of the automatic assembly equipment, thereby improving space utilization, reducing the equipment's footprint, and enhancing the equipment's regularity and aesthetics.
