[0002] In the automotive manufacturing industry, the assembly of auto parts demands stringent precision and efficiency. Traditional assembly tools have significant shortcomings: firstly, most tools have limited functionality, requiring frequent manual tool changes to meet the diverse assembly needs of auto parts, which is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive but also prone to affecting assembly quality due to human error; secondly, their low level of automation integration makes them difficult to adapt to the continuous and efficient production rhythm of modern automotive production lines. As the automotive industry moves towards intelligent and refined manufacturing, the market urgently needs a multi-functional tool that can quickly change tools, operate flexibly, and cover the assembly of multiple types of parts. While some existing automated assembly equipment attempts to integrate tool changing functions, the coordination between the tool changing mechanism and the robotic arm unit is poor, the tool changing process is cumbersome, tool storage capacity is limited, and it is difficult to balance the robotic arm's operating range and precision, failing to meet the needs of small-batch, multi-variety mixed-line production and high-precision assembly of auto parts.
