Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of louver manufacturing technology, and in particular, to an automatic louver installation line. Background Technology

[0002] Venetian blinds have a wide range of applications in the construction industry. A venetian blind mainly consists of a frame and slats. During the manufacturing process, ensuring the slats are evenly spaced and installed on the frame is crucial. Traditional installation methods are primarily manual. Workers first position the slats, then use an electric screwdriver to drive screws into the frame to connect the slats to the frame. This method is physically demanding for workers. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide an automatic louver installation line.

[0004] The objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0005] An automatic louver installation line includes a frame with a conveyor line on the frame. Several louver clamps are arranged side by side on the conveyor line. A nailing machine and a louver frame clamp are also arranged on the frame next to the conveyor line. The nailing machine and the louver frame clamp are arranged sequentially along the conveying direction of the conveyor line. The louver frame clamp is adapted to hold the louver frame and drive the louver frame to move along the conveying direction of the conveyor line.

[0006] Preferably, the nailing machine is an automatic riveting machine.

[0007] Preferably, the conveyor line is a belt conveyor line.

[0008] Preferably, the louver clamp includes two opposing clamping plates, and each of the two clamping plates has a plurality of clamping posts springily arranged on its opposite sides, and the plurality of clamping plates are arranged in an array.

[0009] Preferably, the louvered frame clamp includes a transfer mechanism and at least two clamping units, and at least one of the clamping units is disposed on the transfer end of the transfer mechanism.

[0010] Preferably, the transfer mechanism includes a linear module.

[0011] Preferably, the clamping unit includes a vertically extendable pressure plate.

[0012] Preferably, the pressure plate is vertically ejected by a cylinder.

[0013] Preferably, the frame is also equipped with a feed sensor, which is used to detect whether the louvered frame has entered the nailing position.

[0014] Preferably, the feed sensor is an infrared sensor.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: the louvers to be installed are clamped one-to-one on several louver clamps on the conveyor line, and the louver frames to be installed are clamped on the louver frame clamps. Then, the nailing machine can nail the louvers and louver frames at the nailing station. As the conveyor line and louver frame clamps transfer the louvers and louver frames separately, different louvers and louver frames in different positions will enter the nailing station, realizing the automatic nailing installation of the louvers. Compared with the prior art, this invention, through the cooperation of the conveyor line, louver clamps, and louver frame clamps, can realize the automatic nailing operation of louvers, freeing up manual labor and achieving high work efficiency.

[0018] The technical solution of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0019] like Figure 1 As shown, an automatic louver installation line includes a frame 1. A conveyor line 2, such as a belt conveyor, is mounted on the frame 1, and several louver clamps 3 are arranged side-by-side on its conveying surface. A nailing machine 4 is also mounted on the frame 1 beside the conveyor line 2, thus forming a nailing station at the nailing machine 4. Furthermore, a louver frame clamp 5 is also mounted on the frame 1 beside the conveyor line 2, and the nailing machine 4 and the louver frame clamp 5 are arranged sequentially along the conveying direction of the conveyor line 2.

[0020] During installation, the louvers to be installed are clamped one-to-one on several louver clamps 3 on the conveyor line 2, while the louver frames to be installed are clamped on the louver frame clamps 5. Subsequently, the nailing machine 4 nails the louvers and louver frames at the nailing station. As the conveyor line 2 and the louver frame clamps 5 transfer the louvers and louver frames separately, different louvers and louver frames in different positions will enter the nailing station, realizing the automatic nailing and installation of the louvers.

[0021] For example, the nailing machine 4 can preferably be an automatic riveting machine. In cases where the louvers and louver frames are connected by bolts, the nailing machine 4 can also preferably be an automatic screw machine. The specific form of the nailing machine 4 can be adapted to the specific process requirements of the louvers, and no limitation is placed on the specific form of the nailing machine 4 in this utility model.

[0022] In some embodiments, the louver clamp 3 may include two opposing clamping plates 6, and the louver to be installed may be clamped between the two clamping plates 6. For example, a plurality of clamping posts 7 are spring-loaded on the opposite sides of the two clamping plates 6, and the plurality of clamping posts 7 are arranged in an array.

[0023] The springing motion of the clamping post 7 is achieved through a spring. As the louver is inserted between the two clamping plates 6, the clamping post 7 will spring to varying degrees, thereby achieving adaptive clamping of the louver surface. Furthermore, this clamping will also help maintain the intended posture of the louver, thereby improving the installation accuracy between the louver and the louver frame.

[0024] The array of clamping columns 7 can adapt to the clamping requirements of louvers of different widths.

[0025] In some embodiments, the louver frame clamp 5 preferably includes a transfer mechanism 8 and at least two clamping units 9, with at least one clamping unit 9 adapted to be mounted on the transfer end of the transfer mechanism 8. It is conceivable that during the clamping process of the louver frame, the cooperation of several clamping units 9 can fix the louver frame, making it easier for the nailing machine 4 to nail at the nailing station. When the louver frame needs to be moved to drive it to different positions into the target station, the fixed clamping unit 9 can be controlled to release the louver frame. Subsequently, the transfer end of the transfer mechanism 8 and the conveyor line 2 synchronously transfer the louver frame. After the louver frame completes its movement, the fixed clamping unit 9 re-fixes it, at which point the nailing machine 4 performs the nailing action again.

[0026] For example, the transfer mechanism 8 can preferably be a linear module, but it can also be other devices that use ejector components such as cylinders or hydraulic cylinders to achieve transfer. The clamping unit 9 can preferably include a vertically ejectable pressure plate 10, which is used to press and clamp the louver frame by lowering the pressure plate 10. For example, the pressure plate 10 can be raised and lowered by the ejection of a cylinder (not shown).

[0027] Specifically, each clamping unit 9 may include a support structure, and the pressure plate 10 is adapted to be height-adjustably mounted on the support structure. A feed sensor 11 is provided at the support structure of the fixedly mounted clamping unit 9 on the frame 1, therefore the support structure is a hollow structure. For example, the feed sensor 11 can preferably be an infrared sensor. As the louvered frame moves towards the nailing station, the feed sensor 11 can detect whether the louvered frame has entered the qualified station, thereby controlling whether the nailing machine 4 performs the nailing action, avoiding the nailing machine 4 from dry-firing.

[0028] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model. It should be understood that this utility model is not limited to the forms disclosed herein and should not be construed as excluding other embodiments. It can be used in various other combinations, modifications, and environments, and can be altered within the scope of the concept described herein through the above teachings or related technologies or knowledge. Modifications and variations made by those skilled in the art that do not depart from the spirit and scope of this utility model should be protected within the scope of the appended claims.
