Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of furniture processing, specifically to an automatic assembly device for chair foot pedals. Background Technology

[0002] In traditional chair manufacturing, the production and assembly of footrests rely on manual operation experience and lacks standardized requirements. The manual assembly process includes steps such as attaching the upholstery, fastening the hardware, and assembling the footrest shell.

[0003] Step 1: Assemble the upholstery. First, stack the footrest fabric, sponge, and inner footrest panel in the center of the work surface from bottom to top. Tighten the mesh fabric along the two long sides of the footrest, flip it over to wrap around the sponge and inner footrest panel, and drive a rivet into the center of each side to secure it. Then, secure the mesh fabric along the two short sides of the footrest in the same way. Next, secure the mesh fabric around the perimeter of the footrest by tightening the mesh fabric around the perimeter and driving rivets evenly along the edges. Finally, use a utility knife to remove excess fabric along the rivet lines. This step is to create the soft support structure for the footrest upholstery.

[0004] Step Two: Secure the screws. The worker secures multiple screws to the inside of the soft-padded inner panel, which is covered and secured with fabric and sponge. This step is to ensure that the screws connect the inner and outer panels when fastening the inner panel to the outer foot pedal panel.

[0005] Step 3: Assemble the inner and outer pedal plates. The worker aligns the screws of the inner pedal pouch with the pre-drilled holes on the outer pedal shell, and uses a rubber mallet or other tools to press down on the pedal pouch to make the inner and outer pedal plates snap together.

[0006] The aforementioned manufacturing and assembly process presents numerous problems, particularly in the assembly of the inner and outer pedal panels. Even slight errors can damage the pedal housing, resulting in a loss of manpower and resources. Due to limited visibility, workers often struggle to align the screws with the pre-drilled holes during assembly. If misalignment is not detected promptly, workers may unknowingly force the panels together, causing wear or even breakage. Furthermore, manually assembling the pedal panels is time-consuming and inefficient, and there is a high risk of some screws not being fully engaged, leading to gaps and other quality issues.
