[0039] With reference to the drawings again, Figure 2 As shown, the ring-shaped driving system 3 is installed on the first support platform 21, and a ring-shaped path is formed by the ring-shaped driving system 3. Correspondingly, each processing station of the wire harness is arranged around the ring-shaped path. The ring-shaped guide rail 4 is installed on the second support platform 22.

[0040] With reference to the drawings again, Figure 3 As shown, the storage unit 5 comprises a unit body 51, a connecting member 52, a guide wheel 53 and a moving wheel 54. The connecting member 52 is connected to the side of the unit body 51 and close to the bottom of the unit body 51. The connecting member 52 is connected with the ring-shaped driving system 3, so that the ring-shaped driving system 3 drives the unit body 51 to move along the ring-shaped path, thereby switching between different stations.

[0041] In the process of wire harness processing, each processing station can be provided with a plurality of storage units 5, so as to divide the storage units 5 into processed areas and unprocessed areas; or each processing station can be provided with one storage unit 5, so as to divide the storage unit 5 into processed areas and unprocessed areas. When a certain amount of wire harness processing is completed in each station, the storage unit 5 is driven by the ring-shaped driving system 3 to move along the ring-shaped path, so as to transfer the wire harness in the processed area of the previous processing station to the next station as the unprocessed area of the next station.

[0042] The unit body 51 is connected with the guide wheel 53, and the guide wheel 53 abuts against the ring-shaped guide rail 4, so that the guide wheel 53 provides guidance and anti-overturning support for the movement of the storage unit 5, thereby avoiding the overturning of the storage unit 5.

[0043] The moving wheel 54 is connected to the bottom of the unit body 51, and the moving wheel 54 abuts against the base 1, so that the moving wheel 54 assists the movement of the storage unit 5 and provides support for the storage unit 5. In this embodiment, the base 1 can be a plate-shaped structure. In other embodiments, the factory floor can also be used as the base 1.

[0044] The wire harness storage rack provided by the embodiment can place the processed or unprocessed wire harness on the storage unit 5, drive the storage unit 5 to move along the annular path by the annular driving system 3, so as to transfer the wire harness between different workstations without manual batch taking and placing, avoid the damage of the wire harness caused by winding and pulling, and reduce the labor cost and improve the overall processing efficiency.

[0045] Specifically, the annular driving system 3 includes an annular chain 31, a driving gear 32, a driven gear 33, and a driving motor 34. The annular path is formed by the annular chain 31.

[0052] Specifically, the base 1 is provided with an annular groove 11, and the moving wheel 54 is arranged in the annular groove 11, and the annular groove 11 limits the moving wheel 54 to a certain extent.

[0053] Specifically, in this embodiment, a plurality of storage units 5 are arranged around the annular driving system 3.

[0054] Working process:

[0055] The processing stations are reasonably distributed along the annular path, and the storage units 5 are divided into processed areas and unprocessed areas; the storage units 5 remain stationary during the wire harness processing, and after the wire harness processing of each station is completed, the storage units 5 are driven to move along the annular path, so that the storage units 5 carrying the processed wire harnesses are transferred to the next processing station; and the wire harnesses are transferred between different stations in a cycle.

[0056] The technical features of the above-described embodiments can be combined in any manner. In order to make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-described embodiments are described, but as long as the combinations of the technical features do not contradict, they should be considered as within the scope of the present disclosure.
