[0037] The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0038] Reference Figures 1 to 8 As shown, this utility model provides an assembly device for assembling parts (not shown) and product 100. The assembly device includes a base 10, a clamping mechanism 20, and an assembly mechanism 30, wherein:

[0039] In the embodiments provided in this application, product 100 has a recess 110, which is disposed on the upper and lower sides of product 100. Conventional assembly devices use a vertical assembly method. Due to the structural characteristics of the recess 110, the assembly equipment cannot extend into the product, and thus the components cannot be directly assembled into the recess 110 in a vertical manner. However, the assembly device of this application can assemble the components into the recess 110 of product 100.

[0040] Reference Figure 1 as well as Figure 2As shown, the clamping mechanism 20 is mounted on the base 10. The clamping mechanism 20 includes a fixed base 21, a first fixing member 22, and a second fixing member 23. Both the first fixing member 22 and the second fixing member 23 include multiple members. The multiple first fixing members 22 can fix the product 100 to the fixed base 21 in the first direction D1, and the multiple first fixing members 22 can stably fix the product 100 in the first direction D1. The multiple second fixing members 23 can fix the product 100 to the fixed base 21 in the second direction D2, and the multiple second fixing members 23 can stably fix the product 100 in the second direction D2.

[0041] The first direction D1 is the thickness direction of product 100, that is, the thickness direction of the concave portion 110 of product 100. The first fastener 22 is used to fix it along the thickness direction of product 100. The second direction D2 is the length direction of product 100. The second fastener 23 is used to fix it along the length direction of product 100.

[0042] The assembly mechanism 30 is located above the clamping mechanism 20. The assembly mechanism 30 can reciprocate along a third direction D3, which is the direction of gravity. The assembly mechanism 30 includes an assembly part 31, a first clamping member 32, and a second clamping member 33. The first clamping member 32 can drive the clamping mechanism 20 to move along a first direction D1, so that the assembly part 31 extends into the product 100, thereby enabling the assembly part 31 to assemble or fix the parts into the product 100. The first clamping member 32 is used to clamp the product 100 along the first direction D1, and the second clamping member 33 is used to clamp the product 100 along the second direction D2.

[0043] Since the product 100 of this application has two recesses 110 that are arranged opposite each other along the direction of gravity, after the first fixing member 22 and the second fixing member 23 fix the product 100 to the fixing base 21, the assembly mechanism 30 moves down. When the first clamping member 32 moves down to contact the clamping mechanism 20, the assembly part 31 is misaligned with the recesses 110 of the product 100. Even if the assembly part 31 continues to move down, it is impossible to assemble the target part into the recesses 110 below the product 100.

[0044] Therefore, the first clamping member 32 needs to drive the clamping mechanism 20 to move along the first direction D1, so that the recessed portion 110 below the product 100 moves downward toward the mounting part 31 (so that the mounting part 31 extends into the product 100). When the clamping mechanism 20 moves to the point where the first clamping member 32 clamps the product 100, the mounting part 31 is located above the recessed portion 110 below the product 100. The assembly mechanism 30 continues to move downward, so that the second clamping member 33 approaches the clamping mechanism 20. When the second clamping member 33 moves down to clamp the product 100, the product 100 is clamped. Finally, the mounting part 31 moves downward until the component is assembled in the corresponding position of the recessed portion 110 below the product 100, thereby completing the assembly of the component with the product 100.

[0045] Reference Figure 3 as well as Figure 4 As shown, in one feasible embodiment, the first fixing member 22 includes a first fixing block 221 and a first elastic member 222. The opposite ends of the first elastic member 222 are respectively connected to the fixing base 21 and the first fixing block 221. When the first fixing member 22 fixes the product 100, the first elastic member 222 is subjected to the force of the first direction D1 and undergoes elastic deformation to accumulate elastic force, and applies the elastic force to the first fixing block 221, so that the first fixing block 221 presses against the product 100, thereby fixing the product 100 in the first direction D1.

[0046] Furthermore, the second fixing member 23 includes a second fixing block 231 and a second elastic member 232. The two ends of the second elastic member 232 are respectively connected to the fixing base 21 and the second fixing block 231. When the second fixing member 23 fixes the product 100, the second elastic member 232 is subjected to the force of the second direction D2 and undergoes elastic deformation to accumulate elastic force. The elastic force is then applied to the second fixing block 231, causing the second fixing block 231 to press against the product 100, thereby fixing the product 100 in the second direction D2.

[0047] After the clamping mechanism 20 fixes the product 100, the assembly mechanism 30 is started to assemble it. Before assembly, the position of the product 100 must be adjusted so that the inner recess 110 of the product 100 is opposite to the assembly part 31.

[0048] Reference Figure 5 , Figure 6 as well as Figure 8As shown in the embodiments provided in this application, the first clamping member 32 includes a first positioning part 321 and a first clamping block 322. The first positioning part 321 and the first clamping block 322 are disposed opposite to each other along the first direction D1. The first positioning part 321 can drive the clamping mechanism 20 to move along the first direction D1. When the clamping mechanism 20 moves along the first direction D1 to the point where the inner recess 110 of the product 100 is opposite to the mounting part 31, the first positioning part 321 and the first clamping block 322 can clamp the product 100 along the first direction D1.

[0049] In one feasible implementation, refer to Figure 2 as well as Figure 4 As shown, the first positioning part 321 includes a positioning cam 3211, and the clamping mechanism 20 is provided with a third positioning block 24. The third positioning block 24 is provided with a pushing inclined surface 241. When the positioning cam 3211 moves along the third direction D3 until the positioning cam 3211 abuts against the pushing inclined surface 241, the assembly part 31 is misaligned above the concave part 110 of the product 100. As the assembly mechanism 30 continues to move downward, the positioning cam 3211 slides along the pushing inclined surface 241. During the sliding process, it applies a force to the third positioning block 24 in the first direction D1 to drive the third positioning part 3211 to move downward. Block 24 moves along the first direction D1, thereby driving the clamping mechanism 20 to move along the first direction D1. When the positioning cam 3211 moves to the edge of the pushing inclined surface 241, the product 100 moves with the clamping mechanism 20 to abut against the first clamping block 322, and the positioning cam 3211 abuts against the side of the third positioning block 24, thereby clamping the product 100 between the first positioning part 321 and the first clamping block 322. At this time, the mounting part 31 extends into the upper part of the recess 110 of the product 100.

[0050] After the assembly mechanism 30 clamps the product 100 in the first direction D1, it needs to clamp the product 100 in the second direction D2 before assembly can proceed. (Refer to...) Figures 5 to 7 As shown, the second clamping member 33 includes a second positioning part 331 and a second clamping block 332, which are arranged opposite to each other along the second direction D2. After the first clamping member 32 clamps the product 100, the assembly mechanism 30 continues to move downward, and the second positioning part 331 moves downward to abut against one side of the product 100, thereby fixing one side of the product 100 in the second direction D2. As the second clamping member 33 continues to move downward, until the second clamping block 332 moves downward to abut against the other side of the product 100, thereby clamping the product 100 in the second direction D2.

[0051] After the first clamping member 32 and the second clamping member 33 fully clamp the product 100, the assembly member 31 continues to move downward until the target part is assembled into the recess 110 of the product 100.

[0052] When the first positioning part 321 drives the clamping mechanism 20 to move along the first direction D1, in order to ensure that the clamping mechanism 20 can move accurately along the first direction D1 so that the assembly part 31 can accurately assemble the parts onto the product 100, the embodiments provided in this application refer to... Figure 3 As shown, the assembly device also includes a guide unit 40, which includes a first guide rail 41 and a first slider 42. The first guide rail 41 extends along a first direction D1 and is mounted on the base 10. The clamping mechanism 20 is mounted on the first slider 42, and a guiding engagement is formed between the first slider 42 and the first guide rail 41. When the first positioning part 321 drives the clamping mechanism 20 to move, under the guidance of the guide unit 40, the clamping mechanism 20 can move stably along the first direction D1, preventing the clamping mechanism 20 from shifting during movement and affecting the assembly effect of the assembly part 31.

[0053] Preferably, the base 10 is provided with two guide units 40. Each guide unit 40 includes a first guide rail 41 and two first sliders 42. The two first guide rails 41 are symmetrically arranged on the base 10 along the second direction D2. The four first sliders 42 are all connected to the clamping mechanism 20. Under the action of the two guide units 40, the stability of the clamping mechanism 20 moving along the first direction D1 is further improved.

[0054] Furthermore, the guide unit 40 also includes a third elastic element 43, the opposite ends of which are connected to the base 10 and the first slider 42 respectively, to apply an elastic force to the first slider 42, causing the first slider 42 to elastically reciprocate along the first direction D1. When the clamping mechanism 20 is driven by the first positioning part 321 to move along the first direction D1, the first slider 42 moves along the first direction D1 on the first guide rail 41. During the movement, the third elastic element 43 undergoes elastic deformation under the force of the first direction D1 and accumulates elastic force. After the product 100 completes the assembly with the parts, when the assembly mechanism 30 retracts, the third elastic element 43 applies the accumulated elastic force to the first slider 42, driving the first slider 42 to return to the initial position along the first direction D1, thereby driving the clamping mechanism 20 to reset.

[0055] To facilitate the installation and replacement of product 100, please refer to Figure 2 As shown, the base 10 is also provided with a lifting unit 50. The lifting unit 50 can move along a preset path, which is a path that moves up and down along the direction of gravity. When the lifting unit 50 is at the beginning of the preset path, that is, when the lifting unit 50 is located in the downward direction of gravity, the clamping mechanism 20 fixes the product 100. When the lifting unit 50 moves upward to the end of the preset path, the clamping mechanism 20 releases the fixation of the product 100, thereby enabling the replacement of the product 100.

[0056] In one feasible implementation, refer to Figure 4 As shown, the lifting unit 50 includes a lifting rod 51, a fourth elastic element 52, and a fifth elastic element 53. When the lifting unit 50 is at the beginning of a preset path, the two ends of the fourth elastic element 52 are connected to the lifting rod 51 and the clamping mechanism 20, respectively. The fourth elastic element 52 can apply an elastic force to the clamping mechanism 20, so that the first fixing element 22 and the second fixing element 23 fix the product 100.

[0057] Specifically, the base 10 is provided with a third fixing block 11. When the lifting unit 50 is at the beginning of the preset path, under the combined action of the first elastic member 222 and the fourth elastic member 52, the first fixing block 221 can abut against the third fixing block 11 in the first direction D1, and at the same time fix the product 100 in the first direction D1.

[0058] When the lifting rod 51 moves to the end of the preset path, the fourth elastic element 52 disengages from the lifting rod 51, and the force exerted by the fourth elastic element 52 on the third fixing block 11 disappears, releasing the contact state between the third fixing block 11 and the first fixing block 221. Consequently, the force exerted by the third fixing block 11 on the first elastic element 222 disappears, allowing the first fixing block 221 to move away from the product 100, thereby releasing the fixation on the product 100. This allows the product 100 to be removed from the fixing seat 21, facilitating the replacement of the product 100.

[0059] After replacing product 100, the lifting rod 51 is moved down to the starting end of the preset path, so that the fourth elastic element 52 is reconnected to the lifting rod 51, the third fixing block 11 abuts against the first fixing element 22, and the first fixing block 221 fixes product 100 so as to facilitate the assembly of the replaced product 100.

[0060] One end of the fifth elastic element 53 is connected to the lifting rod 51, and the other end of the fifth elastic element 53 is connected to the base 10. When the lifting rod 51 moves upward along the preset path, the fifth elastic element 53 undergoes elastic deformation under force and accumulates elastic force. When the lifting rod 51 needs to return to the starting end of the preset path, the fifth elastic element 53 applies elastic force to the lifting rod 51, driving the lifting rod 51 to move towards the starting end of the preset path. Thus, automatic reset can be achieved without manually applying force to the lifting unit 50.

[0061] The assembly device of this application can form a circulating production line consisting of an assembly mechanism 30 and multiple clamping mechanisms 20. A transport guide rail is set on the production line, and a transport slider 60 is set on the base 10 of each clamping mechanism 20. The transport slider 60 can move along the transport guide rail. The specific working process is as follows: multiple clamping mechanisms 20 are arranged sequentially on the transport guide rail. When the product 100 of one clamping mechanism 20 is assembled, the next clamping mechanism 20 moves to the corresponding position of the assembly mechanism 30 for assembly. This process is repeated to realize the assembly of multiple products 100, which helps to improve the assembly efficiency of the product 100, reduce labor intensity, and save costs.

[0062] The above description, based on the embodiments shown in the drawings, details the structure, features, and effects of this utility model. The above description is only a preferred embodiment of this utility model, but the scope of implementation of this utility model is not limited to what is shown in the drawings. Any changes made in accordance with the concept of this utility model, or modifications to equivalent embodiments, that do not exceed the spirit covered by the specification and drawings, shall be within the protection scope of this utility model.
