[0031] The technical solution of this utility model has the following significant beneficial effects:
[0032] After the spacer bar docking assembly receives the assembly frame size information, including the size of the straight spacer bar and the size of the bent spacer bar, the first drive assembly moves the crossbeam assembly upwards or downwards to the straight spacer bar receiving position. Then, the second drive assembly moves the two insertion modules so that the distance between the inner gripper mechanisms of the two insertion modules corresponds to the length of the straight spacer bar. The two inner clamps open, and after both ends of the straight spacer bar are placed onto the two inner clamps, they are clamped, thus completing the automatic material handling of the empty spacer bar. The first drive assembly moves the crossbeam assembly to the insertion position on the base. Before the outer gripper mechanism clamps the bent spacer bar, the inner clamps move vertically to create a height difference between the inner and outer clamps, thereby preventing interference between the bent spacer bar and the straight spacer bar when the outer gripper mechanism clamps the bent spacer bar. Afterwards, the two outer clamps are in the open state, waiting for the bent spacer strip to be delivered into place. The two outer clamps then hold the two shorter horizontal interlocking edges of the bent spacer strip. Next, the two outer clamps move horizontally in opposite directions to separate the two shorter horizontal interlocking edges of the bent spacer strip slightly. Then, the inner clamp moves vertically to align with the outer clamps. Finally, the two outer clamps move horizontally in opposite directions, allowing the two ends of the straight spacer strip to interlock with the two shorter horizontal interlocking edges of the bent spacer strip. In this way, the bent spacer strip and the straight spacer strip are combined to form a frame. This spacer strip interlocking frame assembly device can automatically assemble the bent spacer strip and the straight spacer strip into a frame, replacing manual assembly, reducing the labor intensity of workers, reducing labor risks, saving labor and material costs, and improving production efficiency.

Under the teachings of this utility model, those skilled in the art can conceive of any possible modifications based on this utility model, and these should all be considered to fall within the scope of this utility model.
[0044] To address the issue of manually assembling spacer bars into frames, this application proposes a spacer bar docking and assembly device. Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the spacer bar docking frame device in an embodiment of this utility model. Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the base and the first driving component in an embodiment of this utility model. Figure 3 This is a structural schematic diagram of the crossbeam assembly in an embodiment of the present invention.

Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of the external gripper mechanism in an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 6 This is a schematic diagram of the internal gripper mechanism in an embodiment of the present invention, as shown below. Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the spacer bar docking frame device may include: a base 1 having a first track 11 extending in a vertical direction; a crossbeam assembly 2 mounted on the first track 11 and movable along the first track 11; the crossbeam assembly 2 includes: a base 21 having a second track 22 extending in a horizontal direction; two plug-in modules 3 mounted on the second track 22 and movable along the second track 22; each plug-in module 3 includes: a base plate 31, an inner gripper mechanism 32 and an outer gripper mechanism 33 mounted on the base plate 31, the inner gripper mechanism 32 including an inner clamp 321 movable in a vertical direction and capable of clamping a straight spacer bar 81, the outer gripper mechanism 33 including an outer clamp 331 movable in a horizontal direction and capable of clamping a bent spacer bar 82; the two outer gripper mechanisms 33 are located outside the two inner gripper mechanisms 32; a first drive assembly 4 for driving the crossbeam assembly 2 to move; and a second drive assembly 5 for driving the two plug-in modules 3 to move.
[0045] After the spacer bar assembly frame device receives the frame size information... Figure 7 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the straight spacer and the bent spacer in the embodiments of this utility model, as shown below. Figure 7As shown, the frame size information includes the size information of the straight spacer 81 and the size information of the clamping bent spacer 82. The first drive assembly 4 drives the crossbeam assembly 2 to move up or down to the straight spacer 81 receiving position. Then, the second drive assembly 5 drives the two plug-in modules 3 to move so that the distance between the inner gripper mechanisms 32 of the two plug-in modules 3 corresponds to the length of the straight spacer 81. The two inner clamps 321 open, and after the two ends of the straight spacer 81 are respectively placed on the two inner clamps 321, they are clamped. The automatic material picking of the empty spacer is completed. The first drive assembly 4 drives the crossbeam assembly 2 to move to the plug-in position of the base 1. Before the outer gripper mechanism 33 clamps the bent spacer 82, the inner clamp 321 moves in the vertical direction to create a height difference between the inner clamp 321 and the outer clamp 331, thereby avoiding interference between the bent spacer 82 and the straight spacer 81 when the outer gripper mechanism 33 clamps the bent spacer 82. Afterwards, the two outer clamps 331 are in an open state, waiting for the bent spacer 82 to be delivered into place. The two outer clamps 331 then clamp the two short horizontal interlocking edges of the bent spacer 82. Next, the two outer clamps 331 move in opposite directions along the horizontal direction so that the two short horizontal interlocking edges of the bent spacer 82 are separated by a certain distance. Then, the inner clamp 321 moves vertically so that the inner clamp 321 is flush with the outer clamps 331. Finally, the two outer clamps 331 move in opposite directions along the horizontal direction so that the two ends of the straight spacer 81 are respectively interlocked with the two short horizontal interlocking edges of the bent spacer 82. In this way, the bent spacer 82 and the straight spacer 81 are combined to form a frame. The spacer bar docking and framing device can automatically combine the bent spacer bar 82 and the straight spacer bar 81 into a frame, replacing manual framing, reducing the labor intensity of workers, reducing labor risks, saving labor and material costs, and improving production efficiency.
[0046] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the base 1 may have a first track 11 extending in a vertical direction. To stably erect the first track 11, the base 1 may also include a support bracket for stabilizing the first track 11, the bracket being connected to the back of the first track 11. A crossbeam assembly 2 is mounted on the first track 11 and can move along the first track 11.
[0047] To improve the horizontal stability of the crossbeam assembly 2, there can be two first rails 11 arranged in parallel, with the two ends of the crossbeam assembly 2 respectively mounted on the two first rails 11.
[0048] like Figure 2As shown, the first drive assembly 4 is used to drive the crossbeam assembly 2 to move. For example, the first drive assembly 4 can be driven in various ways, such as a gear and rack drive, a lead screw drive, or a conveyor belt drive; no limitation is made in this application. As a feasible option, the first drive assembly 4 may include: a first motor 41; a rotating shaft 42 connected to the first motor 41; the rotating shaft 42 is connected to both ends of the crossbeam assembly 2 via two sets of transmission assemblies, thereby causing the crossbeam assembly 2 to move along the first track 11. The transmission assemblies may include synchronous pulleys 43, driven pulleys 44, and synchronous belts 45 mounted on the synchronous pulleys 43 and 44. A connecting seat 46 connected to the crossbeam assembly 2 is connected to the synchronous belts 45. The rotating shaft 42 can drive the two synchronous pulleys 43 to rotate, thereby driving the two synchronous belts 45 to move, thus causing the crossbeam assembly 2 to move along the first track 11. The first motor 41 can be a servo motor. In this way, only one first motor 41 can drive two synchronous belts 45 to move synchronously in the vertical direction, effectively ensuring the levelness of the crossbeam assembly 2. In other feasible embodiments, the transmission assembly can include a gear and rack combination, or a gear and chain combination; this application does not impose any limitations on the transmission assembly.
[0049] like Figure 3 As shown, the crossbeam assembly 2 may include: a base 21, on which a second rail 22 extends horizontally; and two plug-in modules 3 mounted on the second rail 22 and movable along the second rail 22. A second drive assembly 5 is used to drive the two plug-in modules 3 to move. Furthermore, the second drive assembly 5 can synchronously drive the two plug-in modules 3 to move towards or away from each other. Each end of the second rail 22 may be provided with a seat plate that serves a limiting function.
[0050] In a preferred embodiment, such as Figure 3 As shown, the second drive assembly 5 may include: a second motor 51; a first left-hand lead screw 52 and a first right-hand lead screw 53 connected to the second motor 51; and two plug-in modules 3 respectively mounted on the first left-hand lead screw 52 and the first right-hand lead screw 53. When the second motor 51 rotates, the first left-hand lead screw 52 and the first right-hand lead screw 53 drive the two plug-in modules 3 to move towards each other or away from each other. In this way, the simultaneous driving of the two plug-in modules 3 to move towards each other or away from each other can be achieved using only one second motor 51.
[0051] For example, the second drive assembly may include: a second motor; a first gear mounted on the second motor; a first left rack and a first right rack meshing with the two sides of the first gear respectively; two plug-in modules respectively mounted on the first left rack and the first right rack; when the second motor rotates, the first left rack and the first right rack drive the two plug-in modules to move towards each other or away from each other. For example, the second drive assembly may include: a second motor; a circular first synchronous belt; the second motor drives the first synchronous belt to rotate; two plug-in modules are respectively connected to two positions on the first synchronous belt that move in opposite directions; the first synchronous belt drives the two plug-in modules to move towards each other or away from each other.
[0052] like Figure 4 As shown, each plug-in module 3 may include: a base plate 31, an inner gripper mechanism 32 and an outer gripper mechanism 33 mounted on the base plate 31. The inner gripper mechanism 32 includes an inner clamp 321 that can move vertically and clamp the straight spacer 81, and the outer gripper mechanism 33 includes an outer clamp 331 that can move horizontally and clamp the bent spacer 82. The two outer gripper mechanisms 33 are located outside the two inner gripper mechanisms 32.
[0053] Among them, such as Figure 6 As shown, the inner gripper mechanism 32 may include: an inner gripper base 322 having a third track 3221 extending in a vertical direction; an inner gripper 321 mounted on the third track 3221 and movable along the third track 3221; and a third drive assembly 323 for driving the inner gripper 321 to move. The third drive assembly 323 may be in the form of a hydraulic cylinder or a pneumatic cylinder.
[0054] The inner clamp 321 has an open state and a clamped state. The inner clamping portion of the inner clamp 321 extends horizontally to clamp the straight spacer 81 arranged horizontally. For example, the inner clamping portion can face upwards, so that the straight spacer 81 can be placed into the inner clamping portion from top to bottom. The inner gripper mechanism 32 also includes a drive unit for driving the inner clamp 321 to open and clamp. The drive unit can drive the inner clamp 321 to move along the Z-axis to achieve opening and clamping. The drive unit can be a hydraulic cylinder or a pneumatic cylinder, etc. It should be noted that the X-axis direction can be horizontal, the Y-axis direction can be vertical, and the Z-axis direction can be perpendicular to the plane formed by the two first tracks 11, that is, perpendicular to the X-axis and Y-axis.
[0055] Among them, such as Figure 5As shown, the outer gripper mechanism 33 may include: an outer gripping base 332 having a fourth track 3321 extending horizontally; an outer gripper 331 mounted on the fourth track 3321 and movable along the fourth track 3321; and a fourth drive assembly 333 for driving the movement of the outer gripper 331. The outer gripper 331 has an open state and a clamped state, and the outer clamping portion of the outer gripper 331 extends horizontally to clamp the horizontal portion of the bent spacer 82. For example, the outer clamping portion may face upward, so that the bent spacer 82 can be placed into the outer clamping portion from top to bottom.
[0056] Furthermore, to achieve precise and stable movement of the outer clamp 331 on the fourth track 3321, the fourth drive assembly 333 includes a servo motor and a lead screw connected to the servo motor. The lead screw passes through the outer clamp 331 and is threadedly connected to it. Driven by the servo motor, the lead screw rotates, allowing the outer clamp 331 to move controllably back and forth along the horizontal direction (X-axis) on the fourth track 3321. The outer gripper mechanism 33 also includes a drive unit for opening and closing the outer clamp 331. The drive unit can drive the outer clamp 331 to move along the Z-axis to achieve opening and closing. The drive unit can be a hydraulic cylinder or a pneumatic cylinder, etc.
[0057] As a feasible option, such as Figure 5 As shown, the outer gripper mechanism 33 further includes: a swing arm 334; and a fifth drive assembly 335 for driving the swing arm 334 to rotate. The swing arm 334 rotates about the X-axis. The swing arm 334 has a first position and a second position. When the swing arm 334 is in the first position, the bent spacer 82 can be inserted into the outer gripping part. When the swing arm 334 is in the second position, the swing arm 334 is located above the outer gripping part. The swing arm 334 can press down on the bent spacer 82 in the outer gripping part.
[0058] As a feasible option, such as Figure 1 As shown, the spacer bar docking frame device may include: two clamping mechanisms 6 installed on the second track 22 and movable along the second track 22, the two clamping mechanisms 6 being located on the outside of the two plug-in modules 3 respectively, the two clamping mechanisms 6 being used to clamp the two vertical sides of the bent spacer bar 82 arranged side by side; and a sixth driving component 7 for driving the two clamping mechanisms 6 to move.
[0059] When the two outer clamps 331 are in the open state, the fifth drive assembly 335 drives the swing arm 334 to the first position. After the bent spacer 82 is transferred to the outer clamping part of the outer clamp 331, the fifth drive assembly 335 drives the swing arm 334 to the second position to press down the two short horizontal interlocking edges of the bent spacer 82. The sixth drive assembly 7 can drive the two clamping mechanisms 6 to move horizontally to the position of the two parallel vertical edges of the bent spacer 82. After that, at least part of the jaws of the bent spacer 82 are released, and the two clamping mechanisms 6 respectively clamp the two parallel vertical edges of the bent spacer 82, thereby ensuring the stable clamping of the two vertical edges of the bent spacer 82 and preventing the entire bent spacer 82 from deforming excessively. As an option, the upper part of the bent spacer 82 has a long horizontal edge connecting the two vertical edges. Then, the drive unit drives the outer clamp 331 to move along the Z-axis to clamp the two short horizontal interlocking edges of the bent spacer 82. Next, the two clamping mechanisms 6 release the two parallel vertical sides of the bent spacer 82. Then, as before, the two outer clamps 331 move in opposite directions along the horizontal direction so that the two short horizontal interlocking sides of the bent spacer 82 are separated by a distance. Then, the inner clamp 321 moves vertically so that the inner clamp 321 is flush with the outer clamp 331. Finally, the two outer clamps 331 move in opposite directions along the horizontal direction so that the two ends of the straight spacer 81 are respectively interlocked with the two short horizontal interlocking sides of the bent spacer 82. In this way, the bent spacer 82 and the straight spacer 81 are combined to form a frame.
[0060] The bent spacer 82 can be symmetrical, as is preferred, such as... Figure 3 As shown, the sixth drive assembly 7 may include: a third motor 71; a second left-hand lead screw 72 and a second right-hand lead screw 73 connected to the third motor 71; and two clamping mechanisms 6 respectively mounted on the second left-hand lead screw 72 and the second right-hand lead screw 73. When the third motor 71 rotates, the second left-hand lead screw 72 and the second right-hand lead screw 73 drive the two clamping mechanisms 6 to move towards each other or away from each other. Alternatively, the sixth drive assembly may include: a third motor; a second gear mounted on the third motor; a second left rack and a second right rack meshing with the two sides of the second gear respectively; and two clamping mechanisms respectively mounted on the second left rack and the second right rack. When the third motor rotates, the second left rack and the second right rack drive the two clamping mechanisms to move towards each other or away from each other. Another example is that the sixth drive assembly includes: a third motor; a circular second synchronous belt; the third motor drives the second synchronous belt to rotate; and two clamping mechanisms respectively connected to two positions on the second synchronous belt that move in opposite directions; the second synchronous belt drives the two clamping mechanisms to move towards each other or away from each other.
[0061] By using the above method, only one third motor 71 is needed to adjust the two clamping mechanisms 6 to positions corresponding to the two parallel vertical sides of the bent spacer 82. To facilitate clamping the two parallel vertical sides of the bent spacer 82 by the two clamping mechanisms 6 without interfering with the transfer of the bent spacer 82 to the outer clamping part of the outer clamp 331, the two clamping mechanisms 6 can move along the Z-axis. When clamping the two parallel vertical sides of the bent spacer 82 is not required, the two clamping mechanisms 6 move backward along the Z-axis to avoid being on the same plane as the plane formed by the bent spacer 82.
[0062] As a feasible option, the two plug-in modules 3 are respectively equipped with a first and a second photoelectric mechanism to obtain the distance between the two plug-in modules 3. In this way, the accuracy of the distance between the two plug-in modules 3 after the second drive assembly 5 drives the two plug-in modules 3 to move can be ensured, thus meeting the requirements of the frame size information.
