Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mechanical assembly technology, and in particular to an electric mechanism assembly line. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of mechanical manufacturing, electric mechanisms, as important power components, are widely used in various equipment, such as electric mechanisms for automotive windows. With the rapid development of industries such as automobiles, the demand for electric mechanisms is increasing, and their production efficiency and quality are receiving more and more attention. Highly efficient electric mechanism production can not only improve a company's production capacity but also reduce production costs and enhance market competitiveness. Therefore, continuously optimizing the production process of electric mechanisms has become crucial for the industry's development.

[0003] In the past, the production of electric motors typically involved traditional manual assembly. Workers had to assemble numerous components, such as the motor, transmission gears, and drive shafts, one by one into a housing consisting of an upper and lower shell. This method relied heavily on worker experience and skill, requiring a high level of proficiency. Alternatively, some companies used simple linear assembly lines, setting up different workstations on the line for workers to complete each assembly step sequentially. However, this type of assembly line lacked flexibility and was difficult to adjust to actual production conditions.

[0004] Existing assembly methods for electric mechanisms have significant drawbacks. Due to the large number of components within the electric mechanism, traditional manual assembly is not only cumbersome, leading to low production efficiency, but also prone to human error, affecting product quality. While simple linear assembly lines improve efficiency to some extent, they lack flexibility and cannot effectively adapt to different production needs, still failing to effectively solve the problems of low assembly efficiency and high error rates. Utility Model Content

[0005] This application provides an assembly line for electric mechanisms, which adopts a combination of roller tracks, conveyor plates, limit blocks and sensor systems to improve the assembly efficiency of electric mechanisms and reduce assembly errors.

The transfer plate is mounted on the roller track and moves with the roller track. The roller track is arranged along a circular path and has rotatably mounted rollers. The limiting block is vertically and vertically positioned beside the movement path of the transfer plate via a drive device. The sensor system is used to detect the position of the transfer plate and control the lifting and lowering of the limiting block to block or release the movement of the transfer plate.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, the electric mechanism assembly line designed by this utility model has a circular path with rotating rollers that can drive the transfer plate to move. The sensor system detects the position status of the transfer plate and controls the lifting and lowering of the limit block, which enables the transfer plate to accurately stop and rotate at each workstation, realizes the assembly line operation of electric mechanism assembly, improves assembly efficiency and reduces assembly errors.

[0008] Preferably, there are two roller tracks, which are arranged in parallel. The transfer plate is placed on the rollers in the roller tracks, and the rollers drive the transfer plate to move.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, two parallel roller tracks are set up during use. The transfer plate is placed on the rollers and moved by the rollers, which ensures the normal movement of the transfer plate and improves the stability of the movement of the transfer plate.

[0010] Preferably, the sensor system includes a wedge-type limit switch, which is disposed between the two roller tracks and can be triggered by the pressure of the transfer plate.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the sensor system uses a wedge-type limit switch and is set between two roller tracks. It can be triggered by the pressure of the conveyor plate, which can accurately detect the position of the conveyor plate, thereby precisely controlling the lifting and lowering of the limit block to block or release the movement of the conveyor plate and ensure the orderly operation of each station on the production line.

[0012] Preferably, the limiting block is hinged to the support base via a rotating shaft, and the driving device drives the limiting block to rotate around the rotating shaft to switch between blocking and yielding states.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, during use, the limit block is hinged to the support base through a rotating shaft. Driven by the drive device, it rotates around the rotating shaft to switch between blocking and yielding states. This allows for precise control of the movement and stopping of the transfer plate on the assembly line, ensuring that each workstation performs assembly operations in an orderly manner.

[0014] Preferably, the transfer plate is provided with a retrieval slot, and the limiting block is disposed in the retrieval slot, which facilitates the removal of the transfer plate for manual operation.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, when in use, a convenient retrieval slot is set on the transfer plate and the limit block is placed in the convenient retrieval slot.

It also makes it convenient for workers to take out the transfer plate at any time for independent manual operation.

[0016] Preferably, the transfer plate contacts the side walls of the roller track via roller bearings, and moves by means of the roller bearings assisted in rotation.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, during use, the transfer plate contacts the side walls of the track through roller bearings.

[0024] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Identical components are indicated by the same reference numerals. It should be noted that the terms "front," "rear," "left," "right," "upper," "lower," "bottom," and "top" used in the following description refer to directions in the accompanying drawings, while the terms "inner" and "outer" refer to directions toward or away from the geometric center of a specific component, respectively.

[0025] This utility model discloses an assembly line for electric mechanisms, such as... Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the assembly includes a roller track 1, a transfer plate 2, a limiting block 3, and a sensor system 4. The transfer plate 2 is mounted on the roller track 1 and moves with the roller track 1. The roller track 1 is set along a circular path and has rotatably mounted rollers. The limiting block 3 is raised and lowered beside the movement path of the transfer plate 2 by a drive device 5. The sensor system 4 is used to detect the position of the transfer plate 2 and control the raising and lowering of the limiting block 3 to block or release the movement of the transfer plate 2. This achieves the effect of allowing the transfer plate 2 to accurately stop and rotate at each workstation, improving assembly efficiency and accuracy. This is because the sensor system 4 can accurately detect the position of the transfer plate 2 and control the movement of the limiting block 3, so that the transfer plate 2 can operate stably at each assembly workstation.

[0026] Specifically, roller track 1 includes a chain structure and rollers. The chain structure resembles a common chain, with rollers mounted coaxially at the pin positions, much like modifying an ordinary chain by installing rotatable rollers at the pins. This chain structure is generally made of metal, offering good strength and durability; however, high-strength engineering plastic chain structures can also be used to reduce weight. The rollers are typically round, made of wear-resistant rubber or plastic, and are connected to the pins of the chain structure via bearings to ensure flexible rotation.

[0027] Specifically, the transfer plate 2 includes a platform body and roller bearings 7. The platform body is a platform placed on the roller track 1, abutting against the side walls of the roller track 1 to ensure stable movement. The platform body is generally a rectangular plate structure made of metal or high-strength plastic. The roller bearings 7 are located at the bottom interface between the transfer plate 2 and the track side walls, thereby reducing frictional resistance. The roller bearings 7 can be ordinary ball bearings or sliding bearings, selected according to actual needs. The platform body and the roller track 1 are coupled by the platform body being placed on rollers, and the rotation of the rollers driving the platform body to move. The roller bearings 7 ensure that the contact between the platform body and the track side walls is a rolling contact, reducing friction.

[0028] Specifically, the limiting block 3 includes a block body and a rotating shaft. The block body is generally cuboid in shape and made of metal or plastic. The rotating shaft is hinged to the support base, and the driving device 5 drives the limiting block 3 to rotate around the rotating shaft to switch between blocking and yielding states. The rotating shaft is usually cylindrical and made of metal, possessing good strength and wear resistance. The driving device 5 can be a cylinder; when the cylinder actuates, it pushes the limiting block 3 to rotate around the rotating shaft, raising or lowering it. The cooperation relationship between the limiting block 3 and the transfer plate 2 is as follows: when the transfer plate 2 passes the sensor corresponding to the workstation, the limiting block 3 rises to block the transfer plate 2 from moving forward; after the process is completed, the limiting block 3 lowers, and the transfer plate 2 continues to move to the next workstation.

[0029] Specifically, the sensor system 4 includes a wedge-type limit switch 41. The wedge-type limit switch 41 is positioned between the two roller tracks 1 and can be triggered by the pressure of the transfer plate 2. The wedge-type limit switch 41 is wedge-shaped and is generally made of plastic or metal. When the transfer plate 2 passes the sensor, it presses down the wedge, triggering an electrical signal that causes the front limit block 3 to rise. The wedge-type limit switch 41 rises after the pressure of the transfer plate 2 is released, restricting the transfer plate 2 from moving backward. This sensor system 4 accurately detects the position of the transfer plate 2, enabling precise control of the limit block 3.

[0030] Specifically, the transfer plate 2 is also equipped with a convenient retrieval slot 6. The convenient retrieval slot 6 is a groove formed on the transfer plate 2, and the limiting block 3 is set in the convenient retrieval slot 6. If the efficiency of a certain station slows down and the transfer plate 2 stops, the subsequent transfer plate 2 will abut against the previous transfer plate 2. Because of the presence of the convenient retrieval slot 6, the subsequent transfer plate 2 will not trigger the limit switch, and the worker can easily and conveniently remove the transfer plate 2 through the convenient retrieval slot 6 for independent processing at any time. The shape of the convenient retrieval slot 6 can be rectangular or circular, depending on the actual design requirements.

[0031] Specifically, an assembly mold 8 is fixedly mounted on the top of the transfer plate 2. The assembly mold 8 is detachably connected to the transfer plate 2 via a threaded connector, which can be a screw, facilitating the installation and removal of the assembly mold 8. The assembly mold 8 includes a lower mold groove 81 and an upper mold positioning block 82. The lower mold groove 81 is used to embed the main component to be assembled, such as the lower shell of an electric mechanism. The upper mold positioning block 82 is used to guide the insertion direction of the mating component, such as the insertion direction of the upper shell. The shape of the lower mold groove 81 is adapted to the main component to be assembled, and the upper mold positioning block 82 is generally a protruding structure that can accurately guide the installation position of the upper shell.

[0032] The implementation principle of this embodiment is as follows: This electric mechanism assembly line achieves high efficiency and accuracy in electric mechanism assembly through the coordinated work of roller track 1, transfer plate 2, limit block 3, and sensor system 4. The circular arrangement of roller track 1 and the rotating installation of rollers allow the transfer plate 2 to move smoothly; the sensor system 4 can accurately detect the position of transfer plate 2 and control the lifting and lowering of limit block 3, allowing transfer plate 2 to accurately stop and rotate at each workstation; the easy-access slot 6 on transfer plate 2 facilitates the handling of abnormal situations; the assembly mold 8 standardizes the assembly positions of the upper and lower shells of the electric mechanism, avoids human error, and improves assembly efficiency and quality, representing a significant improvement and enhancement compared to traditional assembly methods.

[0033] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
