Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of flexible production line technology, and more specifically, to a flexible standardized intelligent production line based on semi-automatic assembly. Background Technology
[0002] Flexible production line technology emerged in response to the diversified market demands and rapidly changing production environment in the manufacturing industry. With intensifying market competition and increasingly personalized and diversified consumer needs, traditional rigid production lines can no longer meet the demands for rapid market response. Therefore, flexible production line technology, by introducing advanced manufacturing technologies such as modularization, standardization, and intelligence, enables rapid adjustment and optimization of production lines to adapt to rapid changes in market demand. Existing flexible production line technologies are mainly based on modular design. By dividing the production line into several independent modules, each with specific functions and structures, they can be quickly combined and disassembled according to production needs. Simultaneously, the introduction of automation and information technology enables intelligent management and control of the production line, improving production efficiency and product quality. Although existing flexible production line technologies have improved the flexibility and adaptability of production lines to a certain extent, some drawbacks remain. First, the complexity of modular design leads to higher construction costs and greater difficulty in maintenance and management. Second, existing flexible production line technologies still need improvement in terms of intelligence, and cannot fully achieve automated and intelligent control of the production process. Furthermore, flexible production lines still have limitations in dealing with large-scale customized production and cannot meet the complex and ever-changing market demands.
[0003] Since the advent of flexible production lines, many companies have begun building them to adapt to multi-variety, small-batch production models. Flexible production lines require advanced technology and equipment, which typically translates to higher initial investment costs. Furthermore, the higher technical levels and more complex equipment maintenance required can lead to a significant increase in operating costs. While flexible production lines offer a degree of flexibility, frequent changes to production line layout and equipment configuration can present challenges. This can require substantial time and financial investment, impacting production efficiency. In some cases, the variability and adaptability of flexible production lines may even lead to decreased production efficiency. This is because frequent changes in equipment and workers can increase uncertainty and complexity in the production process.
[0004] Traditional flexible production lines typically maintain an unchanged overall structure, with tooling and raw materials removed and replaced during product changes to achieve the desired transformation. This flexible production line management model results in high construction costs and significant maintenance and management difficulties. Utility Model Content

[0006] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: a flexible standardized intelligent production line based on semi-automatic assembly, comprising: a mother frame, which serves as a production platform, including a first frame body and a cable tray, a work instruction support, an operating table, an LCIA docking mechanism, a foot pedal mechanism, a power distribution box, a pneumatic valve, a power socket, and a first caster mounted on the first frame body; wherein, the cable tray is located above the first frame body to accommodate and protect cables, the work instruction support is located below the cable tray to hang and display work instructions or related documents, the operating table is located below the work instruction support as an assembly table, the LCIA docking mechanism is located below the operating table to receive finished products and collect empty boxes, the foot pedal mechanism is located below the LCIA docking mechanism to support workers' footing actions, the power distribution box is located on the upper part of the first frame body to supply power to electric production tools, the pneumatic valve is integrated into the power distribution box to supply air to pneumatic production tools, the power socket is connected to the power distribution box, and the first caster is located at the bottom of the first frame body to move the mother frame;
[0007] The sub-shelf, serving as a material rack, includes a second frame and support beams, material shelves, a slide rail mechanism, a waste shelf, and second casters mounted on the second frame.

The slide rail mechanism is located on the lower side of the material shelves for supporting and transferring materials. The waste shelf is located on the lower side of the second frame for placing waste or defective products generated during production. The second casters are located at the bottom of the second frame for moving the sub-shelf.
[0008] The frame structure components and electrical connections of both the main frame and sub-frames adopt a unified standard, so that multiple main frames can be spliced into a main frame assembly of any size, and multiple sub-frames can be spliced into a sub-frame assembly of any size. Sub-frames and main frames can be placed one-to-one to form an independent work area.

[0012] According to the flexible standardized intelligent production line based on semi-automatic assembly provided by this utility model, preferably, the power distribution box is equipped with an industrial Internet of Things module, which communicates data through a 5G wireless network.
[0013] The beneficial effects achieved by this utility model include at least the following: In the mechanical design of traditional production lines, the production table and material racks are integrated and cannot be separated. This makes it impossible to decouple the production platform and material usage. When changing products, the production line can only achieve the function of material switching by storing more materials or replacing the materials on the racks. This utility model separates the mechanical structures of material storage and production, forming separate modules for each, achieving a more flexible production line layout and improving product switching efficiency. This utility model adopts a dual-rack combination method, combined with product data analysis and space occupancy indicators, to achieve rapid adjustment of the production line and flexible satisfaction of material needs. This design allows the production line to be quickly adjusted according to different product types or production rhythms to adapt to rapid changes in market demand. This utility model standardizes the electrical cabinet wiring design, output terminal interfaces, and peripheral ports. This standardized design reduces the construction cost and maintenance difficulty of the production line, and improves the reusability and reliability of the production line.

Through the edge-cloud combined network architecture design and the application of innovative 5G LAN technology, the safety and efficiency of the production line are improved. At the same time, it enables real-time remote monitoring and management of the production process, ensuring product quality and production efficiency. Attached Figure Description
