Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of automobile manufacturing equipment, specifically relating to a small transfer tool between workstations. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, in some automobile body production lines, due to the low level of automation, the transport of body welding parts between tooling fixtures relies on manual handling by workers.
[0003] The fact that the body panels between tooling parts in the production line are handled manually is one of the major reasons for the low production efficiency of the production line, and the labor intensity of workers is also very high. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a small-scale transfer tool between workstations to solve the problems existing in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a small-scale transfer fixture between workstations, comprising a long circular ring, a chain, a lifting frame, a rotating arm, a rotating shaft, a handrail connector, and a handrail; the long circular ring is connected to the four included angles of the lifting frame via the chain, the rotating shaft is fixed to both sides of the lifting frame, the upper part of the rotating arm is hinged to the rotating shaft via a bushing, the two ends of the handrail connector are fixed between the two rotating arms on the same side, and the upper part of the handrail is fixedly connected to the handrail connector.
[0006] Preferably, the lower ends of the two rotating arms on the same side are respectively fixed with a first support block and a second support block.
[0007] Preferably, the chain is connected to the lifting frame by a U-shaped clip.
[0008] Preferably, the bottom of the lifting frame is provided with anti-collision blocks.
[0009] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: it provides a design scheme for a simple conveying mechanism in a tooling workshop, which can prevent workers from being scratched during the handling of vehicle body panels, reduce the labor intensity of workers, and speed up the conveying speed of vehicle body panels in the tooling workshop. It can also be applied to other complex panels or automated conveying systems. Attached Figure Description
[0010] Figure 1 This is a perspective view of the present invention. Detailed Implementation
[0011] The specific embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments.
[0012] like Figure 1As shown, a small transfer fixture between workstations includes...
[0013] Power connection components: long circular ring 101, chain 102, U-shaped clip 103, hanging plate 104, butterfly buckle 105. Main frame components: lifting frame 201.
[0014] Plate fixing parts: rotating arm 301, handrail connector 302, handrail 303, anti-collision block 304, first support block 305, second support block 306
[0015] The long circular ring 101 of the power connection part is installed on the overhead steel structure by the power equipment electric hoist or pneumatic hoist. The chain 102 is connected to the long circular ring 101 at one end by the butterfly buckle 105 and to the U-shaped clamp 103 at the other end. The U-shaped clamp 103 is connected and fastened to the lifting frame 201 by the hanging plate 104.
[0016] The panel fixing part is connected to the power connection part through the spreader frame 201. The body panel fixing block 1305 and block 2306 are respectively connected to the rotating arm 301 with two bolts; the rotating arm 301 is first installed on the cylinder of the spreader frame 201, and the cylinder is then welded to the spreader frame 201; the handrail 303 is connected to the handrail connector 302 with four bolts, and the handrail connector 302 is connected to the two adjacent rotating arms 301 with four bolts; the anti-collision block 304 is connected to the spreader frame 201 with two bolts.
[0017] The fixture design principle determines the position and angle of the rotating arm 301 and its rotation center, ensuring that the rotation process of the plate fixing part does not interfere with the body plate; the power connection part connects to the power system electric or pneumatic hoist, and connects to the lifting frame 201 through the U-shaped clamp 103, while the lifting frame 201 connects to the plate fixing part, the plate connecting part fixes the body plate, and the plate connecting part fixes the body plate. Through the above connection, the plate can rise and fall and can move forward and backward.
[0018] The anti-collision block 304 can prevent the transfer tooling from bumping into the car body when placing and picking up parts; the positions of the first support block 305, support block 2306 and anti-collision block 304 are all determined by the car body panel information.
[0019] In specific operation, with the transfer fixture in the open state, the worker operates an electric or pneumatic hoist to lower it to the vehicle body position to retrieve the part. During this process, the worker needs to hold the handle 303 to keep the fixture in the open state. The worker releases the handle 303, and the support blocks 1305 and 2306 rotate into position under the drive of the rotating arm 301. Then, the worker operates the electric or pneumatic hoist to make the transfer fixture lift the vehicle body panel and move it directly above the next set of fixtures. The worker operates the electric or pneumatic hoist to lower the transfer fixture so that the vehicle body panel falls onto the lower fixture. The worker holds the handle 303 to rotate and open the fixed part of the panel. The worker operates the electric or pneumatic hoist to lift the transfer fixture and move it away from the fixture.
[0020] In summary, this patented mechanism boasts advantages such as simple structure, small footprint, convenient operation, low cost, and low safety risk. Whether from an economic, practical, or operational perspective, it represents a significant advancement in the tooling and fixture industry. Furthermore, those skilled in the art can modify and optimize the details and form to meet diverse needs in practical applications.
[0021] It should be noted that, for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of this utility model.
