[0027] Please refer to Figure 1-Figure 2This embodiment is an equipment assembly production line. The equipment assembly production line 100 includes a pair of ground rails 1 arranged in an inner and outer ring shape, an RGV moving module 2 slidingly arranged on the ground rails 1, a plurality of processing stations 3 arranged above the ground rails 1 and along the sliding direction of the RGV moving module 2, a feeding unit 4 arranged beside the ground rails 1, and a mobile transport device 5 for transporting materials between the feeding unit 4 and each processing station 3;

[0028] The RGV mobile module 2 includes an RGV trolley 21 slidably arranged on the ground rail 1 and a processing platform 22 arranged on the top of the RGV trolley 21;

[0029] The processing station 3 includes multiple assembly stations 31 for assembling equipment, an inspection station 32 for inspecting the assembled equipment, and a material unloading station 33. The feeding unit 4 is provided with multiple material carts 41 for placing materials, and the number of material carts 41 is consistent with the number of assembly stations 31. Each assembly station 31 is provided with a conveying mechanism 311 for conveying the materials on the material cart 41 to the processing platform 22.

[0030] In this embodiment, six assembly stations 31 are provided, and correspondingly, six feed carts 41 are provided. The six assembly stations 31 assemble different components respectively. The materials placed on the six feed carts 41 correspond one-to-one with the materials required by the six assembly stations 31. After the last assembly station 31 completes assembly, the equipment enters the inspection station 32 for inspection. After inspection, the equipment enters the unloading station 33 and is removed by a forklift to complete the unloading operation. In other embodiments, the number of assembly stations 31 and feed carts can be set according to the actual assembly requirements of the equipment, and this is not limited here.

[0031] A first safety fence 23 is also provided at both ends of the processing platform 22. Since the processing platform 22 is relatively high, the first safety fence 23 can prevent the risk of falling when a person stands on the processing platform 22 to assemble and set it.

[0032] The assembly station 31 is also provided with a carrying platform 312 for people to stand on. The carrying platform 312 is adjacent to the processing platform 22 to facilitate personnel to enter the processing platform 22 from the carrying platform 312; the outer periphery of the carrying platform 312 is also provided with a second safety fence 3124 and a ladder 3125 for people to enter the carrying platform 312. Since the height of the carrying platform 312 is relatively high, when people stand on the carrying platform 312, the second safety fence 3124 can avoid the risk of people falling, and the ladder 3125 facilitates people to enter the carrying platform 312.

[0033] The heights of the carrying platform 312, the processing platform 22 and the material cart 41 are kept consistent; the height of the carrying platform 312 is kept consistent with the height of the processing platform 22, which is equivalent to increasing the space of the processing platform 22, making it easier to carry out assembly operations; although a transport mechanism 311 is provided to transport the materials on the material cart 41 to the processing platform 22, some very small parts can be taken manually, so the height of the carrying platform 312 is kept consistent with that of the material cart 41, which makes it easier for manual transport of some small parts from the material cart 41.

[0034] The supporting platform 312 includes a first supporting platform 3121 located on the inside of the ground rail 1 and a second supporting platform 3122 located on the outside of the ground rail 1. Some workers can stand on the first supporting platform 3121 on the inside of the ground rail 1, while others can stand on the second supporting platform 3122 on the outside of the ground rail 1, cooperating to complete the equipment assembly, thereby improving assembly efficiency. A side of the second supporting platform 3122 is provided with an escape space 3123 for the feeding cart 41 to enter. When the mobile handling device 5 is transporting materials, it moves the material cart 41 and the materials on it into the escape space 3123. The handling mechanism 311 then moves the materials on the material cart 41 to the processing platform 22.

[0035] In this embodiment, the transport mechanism 311 is a cantilever crane. The cantilever crane's arm extends above the processing platform 22, and the mounting bracket for the cantilever crane is located next to the supporting platform 312. This can transport large and heavy materials, facilitating the assembly of large-volume equipment. In other embodiments, the transport mechanism 311 can be a robot or other transport device, depending on the actual situation and is not limited here.

[0036] The unloading station 33 and the feeding unit 4 are located on both sides of the ground rail 1, as shown in FIG. Figure 1 As shown, the feeding unit 4 is located at the rear side, and the unloading unit is located at the front side of the ground rail 1, which can avoid mutual interference between loading and unloading.

[0037] The material cart 41 includes a mounting frame 411 , a carrying plate 412 disposed above the mounting frame 411 and carrying materials, and a roller 413 disposed at the bottom of the mounting frame 411 . The smooth roller 413 is provided to facilitate the movement of the material cart 41 .

[0038] The mobile handling device 5 is an AGV, which is equipped with a lifting mechanism for lifting the material cart 41. The lifting mechanism supports the mounting frame 411 of the material cart 41, thereby lifting the entire material cart 41, enabling the AGV to transport the material cart 41. The AGV sequentially transports the material cart 41 and the materials on the material cart 41 to the avoidance space 3123 of the assembly station 31. After the transport mechanism 311 has removed all the materials, the AGV transports the empty material cart 41 to the feeding unit 4.

[0039] When applying the equipment assembly production line 100 provided by this solution, the materials are placed on each trolley 41 of the feeding unit 4 in sequence. There are workers assembling the equipment on the carrying platform 312 of each assembly station 31. When the RGV mobile module 2 moves to the first assembly station 31, at the same time, according to the handling instruction issued by the first assembly station 31, the AGV trolley moves to the bottom of the trolley 41 carrying the materials required on the first assembly station 31. The lifting mechanism of the AGV trolley supports the mounting frame 411 of the trolley 41, thereby The entire trolley 41 is lifted up and moved to the avoidance space 3123 on the first assembly station 31. The transport mechanism 311 transports the materials on the trolley 41 to the processing platform 22, and the assembly on the first assembly station 31 is completed manually. At the same time, according to the transport instruction issued by the second assembly station 31, the AGV trolley moves to the bottom of the trolley 41 carrying the materials required for the second assembly station 31. The lifting mechanism of the AGV trolley holds the mounting frame 411 of the trolley 41 to lift the entire trolley 41 and move it to the processing platform 22. The AGV trolley 31 moves the material on the material cart 41 to the processing platform 22, and the material on the second assembly station 31 is manually completed. The above process is repeated to complete the assembly of the equipment at multiple assembly stations 31 in turn. After the equipment is assembled, the RGV trolley 2 brings the assembled equipment into the inspection station 32 for inspection, which is not restricted here. After the inspection is completed, the RGV trolley 2 brings the inspected equipment into the unloading station 33, and takes the assembled equipment away by a forklift and places it in the designated position. Then the RGV trolley 2 moves to the assembly station 31, and the AGV trolley moves the material cart 41 above the assembly station 31 to the feeding unit 4, and transports the material cart 41 to the assembly station 31 to continue the assembly of the next equipment.

[0040] The above descriptions are only some embodiments of the present invention. For those skilled in the art, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the inventive concept of the present invention, and these all fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
