Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of automatic welding and cutting equipment, in particular to a multi-buckle continuous installation device for automobile accessories. Background Art
[0002] In the field of automobile manufacturing, auto parts usually use a variety of processes such as ultrasonic welding, hot riveting welding, screw assembly, and snap fastening to achieve multi-level assembly of multiple parts, and finally assemble the entire vehicle as a whole.
[0003] Using a variety of mass-produced standard hardware and plastic buttons to fasten components is an economical and efficient assembly method.
[0004] The only drawback of this process is that early hardware and plastic buttons were typically assembled and pressed manually, resulting in low automation and high labor intensity. With recent industrial innovations, the widespread use of robots and related automation improvements, more and more automotive assembly companies are transitioning from their earlier labor-intensive processes to digital and automated ones. Consequently, there is a growing demand for these types of buckle installations.
[0005] Due to the structural heterogeneity of plastic parts, different locations on different plastic components require different types of snap fasteners, including U-shaped, runway oval, and standard circular shapes. Materials can be categorized as either metal or plastic. This allows for different combinations of components to achieve different effects, such as tension, appearance, and efficiency.
[0006] Disadvantages of Existing Solution 1: However, due to the existence of various assembly configurations, traditional methods involve manually picking different clips from multiple parts trays and snapping them into place during assembly. This process is prone to missing or incorrect assembly (due to the similar dimensions of some clip components), and later requires manual scribing and inspection. This results in low overall production efficiency.
[0007] Early robotic assembly processes involved a robot or manipulator picking up each part individually. However, with large numbers of parts, the robot or manipulator's reciprocating motion required long, idling paths, and long assembly cycles, hindering productivity. While assembling a buckle typically takes about one second, retrieving it takes another second. This cycle becomes even more pronounced when assembling large quantities of parts.
