[0055] Please refer to Figures 1 to 6 The embodiment of the present application provides an installation device, which comprises a feeding device 1 and a grabbing device 2. The feeding device 1 comprises a tray 11, and the tray 11 forms a plurality of placing grooves 110 for placing the first material 100. The grabbing device 2 comprises a grabbing module 21, which comprises a distance adjusting power source 211, a distance adjusting piece 212, a plurality of sliding pieces 213 and a plurality of first grabbing mechanisms 214. The first grabbing mechanism 214 is connected with the sliding piece 213 one by one, and the first grabbing mechanism 214 is used for grabbing the first material 100 in the placing groove 110 and installing it to the second material. The plurality of first grabbing mechanisms 214 are arranged at intervals along a first direction. The distance adjusting piece 212 forms a plurality of sliding grooves 2121 arranged along the first direction. The sliding groove 2121 extends along a direction oblique to the first direction. The sliding piece 213 is slidably arranged in the sliding groove 2121. The distance adjusting power source 211 drives the distance adjusting piece 212 to make linear reciprocating motion, so that the groove wall surface of the sliding groove 2121 drives the sliding piece 213 to drive the first grabbing mechanism 214 to move along the first direction.

[0056] The first grabbing mechanism 214 is connected with the sliding block one by one, that is, each first grabbing mechanism 214 is connected with a sliding piece 213, and a single sliding piece 213 drives a first grabbing mechanism 214 to move.

[0057] One or more first materials 100 can be placed in each placement slot 110. In some embodiments, multiple first materials 100 can be stacked in the placement slot 110 along the up-down direction.

[0058] The multiple first grabbing mechanisms 214 are arranged at intervals along the first direction, so that the multiple first grabbing mechanisms 214 can grab multiple first materials 100 from the multiple placement slots 110 during the process of grabbing the first materials 100 by the grabbing device 2, and the multiple first materials 100 can be grabbed synchronously, thereby improving the production efficiency.

[0059] The number of the sliding grooves 2121 is two or more, and the multiple sliding grooves 2121 are arranged on the distance adjusting member 212 along the first direction.

[0060] The sliding groove 2121 can be a straight groove, for example, the sliding groove 2121 can be a kidney-shaped groove, that is, the sliding groove 2121 is a closed geometric figure formed by dividing a circle into two opposite half-arc and connecting the endpoints with equal-length parallel line segments.

[0061] The sliding groove 2121 extends along a direction oblique to the first direction, that is, the extension direction of the sliding groove 2121 is not 90° to the first direction.

[0062] The sliding groove 2121 extends along a direction oblique to the first direction, and the sliding member 213 is in sliding connection with the sliding groove 2121, specifically, the side surface of the sliding member 213 abuts against the groove wall surface of the sliding groove 2121, and during the process of driving the distance adjusting member 212 to do linear reciprocating motion by the distance adjusting power source 211, the groove wall surface of the sliding groove 2121 applies a force to the sliding member 213 to make the sliding member 213 slide in the sliding groove 2121, thereby changing the distance between the adjacent two first grabbing mechanisms 214.

[0063] For example, the distance adjusting power source 211 drives the distance adjusting member 212 to do linear reciprocating motion, the distance adjusting member 212 is connected with the first grabbing mechanism 214 through the sliding member 213, and the distance adjusting member 212 can drive the sliding member 213 to move in the sliding groove 2121, that is, the groove wall surface of the sliding groove 2121 can drive the sliding member 213 to drive the first grabbing mechanism 214 to move along the first direction, the sliding groove 2121 extends along a direction oblique to the first direction, and when the sliding member 213 moves to one end of the sliding groove 2121, the distance between the multiple first grabbing mechanisms 214 can be increased to move away from each other, and when the sliding member 213 moves to the other end of the sliding groove 2121, the distance between the multiple first grabbing mechanisms 214 can be reduced to move close to each other, thereby adjusting the distance between the multiple first grabbing mechanisms 214.

[0064] The type of the sliding member 213 is not limited, and the type of the sliding member 213 includes but is not limited to a rolling bearing.

[0065] The type of the first material 100 is not limited, and the first material 100 may, for example, be in a plate structure, for example, a light-reflecting plate or the like. The light-reflecting plate may be used to reflect light.

[0066] The type of the second material is not limited, and the second material may, for example, be a remote controller or the like.

[0067] The function of the remote controller is not limited, and the remote controller may, for example, be used to control a household appliance, for example, to control the start / stop and / or adjustment mode of an air conditioner or the like.

[0068] The shape of the distance adjusting member 212 is not limited, and the distance adjusting member 212 may, for example, be in a plate structure and be provided with a sliding groove 2121.

[0069] The distance adjusting power source 211 is used to provide power, and the distance adjusting power source 211 may, for example, be a cylinder, a motor, an electric cylinder or the like.

[0070] In some embodiments, the first grabbing mechanism 214 grabs the light-reflecting plate and installs it to the remote controller, achieving assembly of product parts. The light-reflecting plate is relatively fragile, and the required installation precision of the remote controller is high. The installation equipment of the present application is used to install the light-reflecting plate to the remote controller, improving the product assembly qualification rate and product quality.

[0071] The installation equipment provided by the embodiments of the present application is used to grab a plurality of first materials 100 by a plurality of first grabbing mechanisms 214, adjust the distance between the plurality of first grabbing mechanisms 214 by using the distance adjusting member 212, and then install them to a plurality of second materials, so as to adapt to the assembly requirements of the plurality of first materials 100 after adjusting the distance and assembling them to the plurality of second materials, reduce manual operation, reduce assembly defects caused by insufficient manual skills, reduce labor intensity and work danger of employees, improve product installation qualification rate, improve automation degree, reduce the risk of installation failure, improve quality, and also improve product output efficiency and improve production capacity per unit time.

[0072] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 4 The distance adjusting power source 211 drives the distance adjusting member 212 to make linear reciprocating motion in the up-down direction, the distance between the lower ends of the two adjacent sliding grooves 2121 is less than the distance between the upper ends of the two adjacent sliding grooves 2121, and the first direction is perpendicular to the up-down direction.

[0073] The upper end and the lower end of the sliding groove 2121 are opposite ends of the sliding groove 2121, the lower end of the sliding groove 2121 is the end close to the lower side, and the upper end of the sliding groove 2121 is the end close to the upper side.

[0074] The chute 2121 can extend upward in a direction oblique to the first direction, and a distance between one end of each chute 2121 extending upward in the direction oblique to the first direction and another end of each chute 2121 extending upward in the direction oblique to the first direction is greater than a distance between one end of each chute 2121 extending downward in the direction oblique to the first direction and another end of each chute 2121 extending downward in the direction oblique to the first direction.

[0075] In this embodiment, the extension direction of the chute 2121 is oblique to the up-down direction, a distance between the lower ends of two adjacent chutes 2121 is less than a distance between the upper ends of the two adjacent chutes 2121, and the two adjacent first grabbing mechanisms 214 are synchronously moved to the lower ends of the two adjacent chutes 2121, so that the distance between the two adjacent first materials 100 is relatively small; and the two adjacent first grabbing mechanisms 214 are synchronously moved to the upper ends of the two adjacent chutes 2121, so that the distance between the two adjacent first materials 100 is relatively large.

[0076] Exemplarily, the distance adjusting piece 212 moves linearly in the up-down direction, so that the sliding piece 213 drives the first grabbing mechanisms 214 to also move linearly in the first direction, to achieve the purpose of synchronous change of the distance between the two adjacent first grabbing mechanisms 214. Specifically, in the process of driving the distance adjusting piece 212 to move downward by the driving power source, the sliding piece 213 moves in the chute 2121 along the chute 2121 in the first direction, and the plurality of first grabbing mechanisms 214 move away from each other to increase the distance in the first direction; in the process of driving the distance adjusting piece 212 to move upward by the driving power source, the sliding piece 213 moves in the chute 2121 along the chute 2121 in the first direction, and the plurality of first grabbing mechanisms 214 move close to each other to decrease the distance in the first direction, so as to achieve synchronous and controllable adjustment of the distance between the plurality of first grabbing mechanisms 214.

[0077] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 4 , the distance between the lower ends of the two adjacent chutes 2121 is greater than the distance between the upper ends of the two adjacent chutes 2121. Thus, in the process of driving the distance adjusting piece 212 to move downward by the driving power source, the sliding piece 213 moves in the chute 2121 along the chute 2121 in the first direction, and the plurality of first grabbing mechanisms 214 move close to each other to decrease the distance in the first direction; in the process of driving the distance adjusting piece 212 to move upward by the driving power source, the sliding piece 213 moves in the chute 2121 along the chute 2121 in the first direction, and the plurality of first grabbing mechanisms 214 move away from each other to increase the distance in the first direction, so as to achieve synchronous and controllable adjustment of the distance between the plurality of first grabbing mechanisms 214.

[0078] Referring to Figures 3 to 5In some embodiments, the grabbing module 21 comprises a seat body 215, shaft rods 216, and a plurality of base bodies 217. The distance-adjusting power source 211 is arranged on the seat body 215. The shaft rods 216 are arranged on the seat body 215 and extend along the first direction. The base bodies 217 are connected to the sliding member 213 and the first grabbing mechanism 214, and the base bodies 217 are slidably sleeved on the shaft rods 216.

[0079] In this embodiment, the shaft rods 216 are used to bear the weight of the sliding member 213, the base bodies 217, and the first grabbing mechanism 214, and can also constrain the movement trajectory of the sliding member 213 and the first grabbing mechanism 214, so that the first grabbing mechanism 214 moves more stably along the first direction.

[0080] For example, each shaft rod 216 can be arranged through the plurality of base bodies 217. The plurality of base bodies 217 can move closer to or away from each other along the shaft rods 216.

[0081] The number of the shaft rods 216 is not limited, and the number of the shaft rods 216 can be one or more.

[0082] The plurality of shaft rods 216 can be arranged in the up-down direction. Each base body 217 can be arranged through the plurality of shaft rods 216, and the plurality of shaft rods 216 can bear the weight of the base bodies 217, the sliding member 213, and the first grabbing mechanism 214.

[0083] The seat body 215 is the main support structure of the grabbing module 21, which improves the stability of the grabbing module 21 during operation.

[0084] The material of the seat body 215 is not limited, and the seat body 215 can comprise, but is not limited to, metal and the like.

[0085] For example, the seat body 215 can comprise a plurality of seat bodies 215 arranged in the up-down direction. Figure 4 and Figure 5 In some embodiments, the first grabbing mechanism 214 comprises a suction head 2141 and a grabbing power source 2142. The suction head 2141 is used to suck and release the first material 100. The grabbing power source 2142 is connected to the sliding member 213, and the grabbing power source 2142 drives the suction head 2141 to move linearly along the up-down direction.

[0086] In this embodiment, the suction head 2141 is tightly attached to the empty tray 11 by negative pressure, thereby completing the grabbing action. For example, the suction head 2141 abuts against the first material 100 and generates a pressure difference, thereby sucking the first material 100 and driving the first material 100 to move synchronously, installing the first material 100 to the second material, reducing the pressure difference to separate the suction head 2141 from the first material 100, thereby releasing the first material 100.

[0087] In some embodiments, the first grabbing mechanism 214 comprises a gas pump and a gas pipe. The gas pump is connected to the suction head 2141 through the gas pipe, thereby changing the air pressure of the suction head 2141.

[0088] The type of the suction head 2141 is not limited, and the suction head 2141 includes but is not limited to a suction cup.

[0089] In some embodiments, a plurality of first materials 100 stacked in the up-down direction can be placed in a single placement slot 110. For example, two reflective panels can be adhered together under the action of atmospheric pressure.

[0090] Exemplarily, the grabbing power source 2142 is used to shake off the two first materials 100 that can be adhered together. In the case that the suction head 2141 adsorbs one reflective panel, the grabbing power source 2142 can be used to drive the suction head 2141 to make linear reciprocating motion in the up-down direction, that is, the grabbing power source 2142 can be used to drive the suction head 2141 to shake up and down, so that the two adhered reflective panels are separated. In this way, the grabbing power source 2142 applies controllable external force to overcome the adhesion force between the two materials, breaks the contact balance between the two materials, shakes off the other material, realizes the grabbing of a single material, and ensures the orderly and reliable production.

[0091] The grabbing power source 2142 is used to provide power, and the grabbing power source 2142 includes but is not limited to a pneumatic cylinder, a motor, an electric cylinder, etc.

[0092] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 , and Figure 6 In some embodiments, the grabbing device 2 includes a mechanical arm 22, and the grabbing module 21 is arranged on the mechanical arm 22. The mechanical arm 22 drives the grabbing module 21 to move, so that the grabbing module 21 can grab the first material 100 and install it to the second material.

[0093] In some embodiments, the mechanical arm 22 can be connected with the seat 215. The mechanical arm 22 can be detachably connected with the seat 215 or non-detachably connected with the seat 215.

[0094] The mechanical arm 22 can include a plurality of joints, thereby realizing movement in multiple directions, and is an automated device designed to imitate a human arm, which can complete tasks such as grabbing, carrying and assembling in a three-dimensional space through programming. The mechanical arm 22 can adopt an existing mechanical arm, and details are not described herein.

[0095] The type of the mechanical arm 22 is not limited, and the mechanical arm 22 includes but is not limited to an industrial robot, etc.

The lifting power source drives the lifting member to move linearly in the up-down direction. The lifting member drives the tray 11 in the material bin 121 to move in the up-down direction.

[0120] In some embodiments, the lifting member is used to abut against the material bin 121 or the tray 11. The lifting mechanism 13 is used to lift the tray 11 to a working surface. When the first grabbing mechanism 214 needs to grab the first material 100, the lifting power source drives the lifting member to move upward. The lifting member abuts against the tray 11 and lifts the tray 11 to the working surface, thereby facilitating the first grabbing mechanism 214 to grab the first material 100.

[0121] The position of the working surface is not limited. The working surface can be located on the upper side of the support frame 12.

[0122] The type of the lifting power source is not limited. The lifting power source includes but is not limited to a pneumatic cylinder, an electric motor, an electric cylinder, etc.

[0123] The shape of the lifting member is not limited. In some embodiments, the lifting member can drive the material bin 121 to move in the up-down direction under the driving of the lifting power source.

[0124] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, the feeding device 1 comprises a support frame 12. The support frame 12 forms a material bin 121 and a storage bin 122. The material bin 121 is used to accommodate the tray 11 with the first material 100. The storage bin 122 is used to accommodate the empty tray 11.

[0125] A plurality of trays 11 can be arranged in the material bin 121 in the up-down direction.

[0126] A plurality of empty trays 11 can be arranged in the storage bin 122 in the up-down direction.

[0127] In this embodiment, during the installation process, the grabbing device 2 grabs the first material 100 from the tray 11 in the material bin 121. After all the first material 100 on one tray 11 is grabbed, the empty tray 11 in the material bin 121 is transferred to the storage bin 122. The grabbing device 2 can continue to grab the first material 100 on the next tray 11 in the material bin 121.

[0128] The empty tray 11 refers to the tray 11 without the first material 100.

[0129] In some embodiments, the material bin 121 and the storage bin 122 can be arranged horizontally.

[0130] In some embodiments, the empty tray 11 in the material bin 121 can be transferred to the storage bin 122 manually.

[0131] Referring to Figure 2 In some embodiments, the installation device comprises a transfer device 4 configured to grasp the tray 11 in the material bin 121 and move to the storage bin 122. The manual handling of the tray 11 can be reduced, and the automation degree can be improved.

[0132] For example, when the first material 100 in a tray 11 is taken, the transfer device 4 sucks and moves the empty tray 11 in the material bin 121 to the storage bin 122.

[0133] Referring to Figure 2 Figure 2 In some embodiments, the transfer device 4 comprises a fixed frame 40, a moving frame 41, and a second grasping mechanism 42.

[0134] The fixed frame 40 can be kept stationary. The fixed frame 40 can be fixed to the bearing structure.

[0135] For example, the fixed frame 40 is provided with a linear slide rail, and the moving frame 41 is slidably connected to the linear slide rail. After the second grasping mechanism 42 grasps the empty tray 11 in the material bin 121, the moving frame 41 slides on the linear slide rail of the fixed frame 40 to drive the second grasping mechanism 42 to store the empty tray 11 in the storage bin 122. This saves time and effort, and reduces the labor intensity and work risk of employees, and improves the installation efficiency.

[0136] In some embodiments, the second grasping mechanism 42 comprises a suction structure. The suction structure sucks the empty tray 11 by negative pressure to complete the grasping action. For example, the suction structure abuts against the empty tray 11 and generates a pressure difference, thereby sucking the empty tray 11 and driving the empty tray 11 to move synchronously, placing the empty tray 11 in the material bin, and reducing the pressure difference to separate the suction structure from the empty tray 11, thereby releasing the empty tray 11.

[0137] In some embodiments, the transfer device 4 comprises a gas pump and a gas pipe. The gas pump is connected to the suction structure through the gas pipe, so as to change the air pressure of the suction structure.
