[0053] The utility model provides an evaporator angle frame positioning mechanism and automation equipment, which can make the screw holes on the angle frame correspond to the threaded holes on the bottom shell and realize the automatic assembly of the evaporator and the bottom shell.

[0054] The following combination Figures 1 to 5 The technical solution provided by the utility model is described in more detail.

[0055] The utility model provides an evaporator angle frame positioning mechanism, comprising a reciprocating module 10 and a pressing assembly 23, wherein the pressing assembly 23 is arranged on the reciprocating module 10;

[0056] The clamping assembly 23 includes a limit baffle 24, a clamping drive component 25 and a clamping block 26. The reciprocating module 10 drives the limit baffle 24 to abut against the angle frame 28. The clamping drive component 25 is used to drive the clamping block 26 to move back and forth towards or away from the bottom shell 29 to press the angle frame 28 onto the bottom shell 29.

[0057] The evaporator angle frame positioning mechanism provided by the present invention includes a reciprocating module 10 and a pressing component 23. The pressing component 23 is arranged on the reciprocating module 10. The reciprocating module 10 is used to drive the pressing component 23 to move back and forth, so that the pressing component 23 moves to the position to be pressed; the pressing component 23 includes a limit baffle 24, a pressing drive component 25 and a pressing block 26. When the reciprocating module drives the pressing component 23 to move back and forth to the position to be pressed, The limit baffle 24 abuts against the angle bracket 28, so that the angle bracket 28 is aligned with the end face of the bottom shell 29; then the clamping drive component 25 is used to drive the clamping block 26 to move back and forth in a manner close to or away from the bottom shell 29, so that the angle bracket 28 is pressed against the bottom shell 29, so that the screw hole 31 on the angle bracket 28 corresponds to the threaded hole on the bottom shell 29, which is convenient for the large screw robot to automatically screw in the screws, thereby realizing the automatic assembly of the evaporator 30 and the bottom shell 29.

[0058] It should be noted that in the prior art, the bottom shell 29 and the angle bracket 28 are provided with a limiting structure, for example, a protrusion is provided on the bottom shell 29 and a groove is provided on the angle bracket 28, the protrusion and the groove being adapted to facilitate the installation of the angle bracket 28 on the bottom shell 29. Since the shape of the angle bracket 28 and the piping structure on the main body of the evaporator 30 are both irregular structures, during manual assembly, the angle bracket 28 needs to be manually pressed against the bottom shell 29 to accurately align the screw holes 31 on the angle bracket 28 with the threaded holes on the bottom shell 29 before the screws are driven in. The evaporator angle bracket positioning mechanism provided by the present invention first positions the end face of the angle bracket 28 using a limiting baffle 24, and then uses a pressing block 26 to press the angle bracket 28 and the bottom shell 29, thereby accurately aligning the screw holes 31 on the angle bracket 28 with the threaded holes on the bottom shell 29. The structure is simple, easy to control, and can achieve automated assembly of the evaporator 30 and the bottom shell 29.

[0059] It can be understood that a bottom shell mounting surface 32 is provided on the angle bracket 28, and a screw hole 31 is provided on the bottom shell mounting surface 32. The clamping drive component 25 drives the clamping block 26 to move back and forth in a direction perpendicular to the bottom shell mounting surface 32, thereby pressing the angle bracket 28 onto the bottom shell 29.

[0060] Specifically, the pressing drive component 25 can be driven by a cylinder or other reciprocating drive components 11, thereby ensuring that the pressing block 26 can drive the angle frame 28 to move closer to or away from the bottom shell 29.

[0061] Optionally, the reciprocating module 10 includes a reciprocating drive assembly 11, a transverse guide rail 12 and a transverse slider 13. The transverse slider 13 cooperates with the transverse guide rail 12, and the reciprocating drive assembly 11 drives the transverse slider 13 to reciprocate on the transverse guide rail 12.

[0062] Specifically, the reciprocating drive assembly 11 can be implemented by a motor screw assembly, a motor conveyor belt assembly, etc. Since the reciprocating drive assembly 11 is a conventional technical means, it will not be described in detail here.

[0063] In some embodiments of the present invention, a longitudinal adjustment component is provided between the pressing component 23 and the reciprocating module 10 .

[0064] In some of the above-mentioned embodiments of the present invention, the longitudinal adjustment component can adjust the position of the clamping component 23 on the reciprocating module 10, thereby realizing the position adjustment of the clamping component 23, so that the evaporator angle frame positioning mechanism provided by the present invention can be suitable for the clamping of angle frames 28 of different sizes, thereby improving its scope of application and being able to be adjusted according to the size of the angle frame 28.

The fixed slider 27 cooperates with the fixed slide 15, so that the clamping assembly 23 can slide along the fixed slide 15, and the locking structure is used to lock the clamping assembly 23 at a specified position in the fixed slide 15, thereby adjusting the position of the clamping assembly 23.

[0068] It should be noted that the fixing seat 14 is a U-shaped structure, and the size of the fixing slider 27 matches the U-shaped fixing groove 15 on the fixing seat 14 and can slide along the U-shaped fixing groove 15 .

[0069] It is understandable that other sliding structures can be used between the fixing seat 14 and the cantilever rod 17 to achieve position adjustment of the two.

[0070] In some embodiments of the present invention, the locking structure includes a first waist-shaped hole 18 provided on the fixed slider 27 and a first threaded hole 16 provided on the fixing seat 14 , and the first fastener passes through the first waist-shaped hole 18 and is threadedly connected to the first threaded hole 16 .

[0071] In some of the above-mentioned embodiments of the present invention, the locking structure includes a first waist-shaped hole 18 and a first threaded hole 16. The first waist-shaped hole 18 is arranged on the fixed slider 27, and the first threaded hole 16 is arranged on the fixed seat 14. The first fastener passes through the first waist-shaped hole 18 and is connected to the first threaded hole 16, so that the fixed slider 27 can be locked on the fixed seat 14. Due to the setting of the first waist-shaped hole 18, the position of the fixed slider 27 on the fixed seat 14 can be adjusted.

[0072] It should be noted that multiple rows of first threaded holes 16 are provided on the fixing seat 14. By providing multiple rows of first threaded holes 16, the adjustment range of the fixed slider 27 on the fixing seat 14 can be further increased to improve the compression of the angle brackets 28 of different sizes.

[0073] In some embodiments of the present invention, a mounting plate 20 is provided on the cantilever rod 17 , the pressing drive component 25 is provided on the mounting plate 20 , and a lateral adjustment component is provided between the mounting plate 20 and the cantilever rod 17 .

[0074] In some of the above-mentioned embodiments of the present invention, a mounting plate 20 is provided, and a lateral adjustment component is provided between the mounting plate 20 and the cantilever rod 17. The lateral adjustment component is used to adjust the position of the mounting plate 20 on the cantilever rod 17, thereby realizing the position of the clamping drive component 25, so as to change the position of the clamping block 26 and adapt to the clamping requirements of different angle frames 28.

[0075] In some embodiments of the present invention, the lateral adjustment assembly includes a second waist-shaped hole 21 provided on the mounting plate 20 and a second threaded hole 22 provided on the cantilever rod 17 , and a second fastener passes through the second waist-shaped hole 21 and is threadedly connected to the second threaded hole 22 .

Since the limit baffle 24 needs to be in contact with the angle bracket 28, the size of the connecting plate 19 is adapted to the limit baffle 24 so that when the limit baffle 24 pushes the angle bracket 28, the position of the angle bracket 28 is more accurate.

[0079] Specifically, the limit baffle 24 is made of polyurethane material, which can effectively protect the angle frame 28 and the bottom shell 29 from damage caused by collision. Preferably, the size of the limit baffle 24 is slightly larger than the size of the connecting plate 19.
