The lifting cylinder is slidably mounted in the lifting frame 221. A side frame robot clamping mechanism is installed below the lifting cylinder. A traversing mechanism is installed between the top of the lifting frame and the top of the traveling frame. This traversing mechanism includes a traversing servo motor. When the traversing mechanism servo motor is activated, it causes the side frame robot gripper to extend into or retract from the triangular hole of the adapter side frame 10. The traversing gear and the traversing frame 241 are connected... The lateral rack is mounted on the top of the traveling frame. The lateral rack is connected to the lifting frame. The lateral servo motor is connected to drive the lateral gear. The lateral servo motor is mounted on the lateral rack. The lateral rack and the traveling frame are also equipped with guide structures. A guide back wheel assembly 222 is installed between the lifting frame and the traveling frame. The guide back wheel assembly includes a top plate and two rollers installed below the top plate. The top plate is mounted on the lifting frame and moves along the traveling frame to make the lateral mechanism move more smoothly. This part can move left and right, forward and backward, and up and down to realize the positioning and placement assembly of the side frame.

[0027] Specifically, such as Figure 5 As shown, the side frame manipulator clamping mechanism includes a clamping servo motor 231, a drive gear 232, a driven gear 233, a lead screw shaft 234, and two clamping jaws 235 mounted on the clamping mechanism frame. The clamping servo motor is connected to the drive gear, and the middle part of the lead screw shaft is connected to the driven gear. The drive gear drives the driven gear. The two sides of the lead screw shaft are threaded with opposite directions and are screwed to the nuts of the corresponding clamping jaws. The slider installed below the clamping jaw matches the slide rail of the clamping mechanism frame. The lead screw drives the two clamping jaws to clamp and release the adapter side frame.

The floating seat is connected to the positioning frame by a pin. Springs 39 are respectively installed on the pins between the adjacent side plates of the floating seat and the positioning frame. The top plate of the floating seat 37 is equipped with a turntable 40, and the upper part of the turntable is connected to the bolster fixing seat 41, such as... Figure 13 The bolster fixing seat includes an annular base plate, with an L-shaped plate connected to the opposite side of the annular base plate. A notch is provided at the top of the vertical plate of the L-shaped plate. The annular base plate is connected to a turntable screw. The lower two sides of the annular base plate of the bolster fixing seat are respectively provided with ear plates 411. An optical shaft 412 passes through the ear plates. Spring bodies 42 are sleeved on both sides of the optical shaft. The two ends of the optical shaft are installed on the rotary supports 371 on both sides of the top plate of the floating seat 37. The spring support plate positioning tray 43 spans the cavity of the bolster fixing seat 41. The lower sides of the spring support plate positioning tray 43 are connected to the three-axis cylinders 44, which are mounted on the outer frame 45 of the base. The outer frame is mounted on the outer ring of the base. When the bogie is a K4 or K5 model, the spring support plate positioning tray is equipped with two large-diameter open clamping cylinders 46. When the bogie is a K2 or K6 model, the large-diameter open clamping cylinders are not needed.

[0030] After the AGV transport vehicle transports a set of rocker side frames to the designated position, the side frames are clamped by a set of side frame assembly structures. The rocker is fixed to the rocker fixed seat 41 of the rocker support positioning structure. The lifting three-axis cylinder of the spring support plate positioning tray 43 rises into place, supporting the spring support plate positioning tray. The large-diameter opening clamp cylinder clamps into place, and the centering block provides power for centering and straightening on both sides under the action of the lead screw.

[0031] This invention achieves automated setup of the side frame and bolster assembly through the interrelation and cooperation of the side frame assembly and the bolster positioning device.
