To avoid unnecessary repetition, the various possible combinations of various specific technical features / embodiments in this application will not be described separately. In addition, the terms "first," "second," and "third" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance. The application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

One of the first direction and the second direction can be a front-back direction, and the other of the first direction and the second direction can be a left-right direction. The front-back direction, the left-right direction, and the up-down direction are perpendicular to each other and together constitute a three-dimensional vertical coordinate system.

[0039] In this application, "multiple" means two or more. "At least one" means one or more.

[0040] The air conditioning unit 100 can be an outdoor unit of an air conditioner. The air conditioning unit 100 includes a heat exchanger for heat exchange between two or more fluids at different temperatures. For example, the heat exchanger can facilitate heat exchange between an airflow and a refrigerant, releasing heat from the refrigerant to the airflow or absorbing heat from the airflow using the refrigerant. Exemplarily, the heat exchanger can regulate the temperature of the airflow, for example, raising or lowering the airflow temperature. Taking raising the airflow temperature as an example, the heat exchanger is a device that uses the refrigerant to release heat to raise the temperature of the airflow; the heat exchanger is a condenser. An insulation strip 30 is attached to the heat exchanger, which abuts against the housing of the air conditioning unit 100, reducing heat conduction between the heat exchanger and the housing.

[0041] Please see Figure 1 , Figures 3 to 7 This application provides a thermal insulation strip assembly device 10 for use in an air conditioning device 100. The air conditioning device 100 includes a heat exchanger and thermal insulation strips 30. The thermal insulation strip assembly device 10 includes a positioning device 1 and a gripping device 2. The positioning device 1 is used to place thermal insulation material 20, wherein the thermal insulation material 20 includes an anti-stick sheet and a plurality of thermal insulation strips 30, and the plurality of thermal insulation strips 30 are bonded to the anti-stick sheet. The gripping device 2 includes a robotic arm 21 and a gripping mechanism 22. The gripping mechanism 22 is disposed on the robotic arm 21, and the robotic arm 21 drives the gripping mechanism 22 to move. The gripping mechanism 22 is used to peel the thermal insulation strips 30 from the thermal insulation material 20 and attach them to the heat exchanger.

[0042] In this way, the robotic arm 21 drives the gripping mechanism 22 to move, enabling the gripping mechanism 22 to peel the insulation strip 30 from the release paper. After peeling, the gripping mechanism 22 picks up the insulation strip 30, moves it to the location of the air conditioning equipment 100, and attaches the insulation strip 30 to the heat exchanger. Thus, the entire process from peeling to attaching the insulation strip 30 eliminates the need for manual labor as in related technologies, accelerating the production cycle and improving the automation level and production efficiency of the insulation strip peeling and assembly process. Furthermore, the gripping mechanism 22 ensures good consistency in attaching the insulation strip 30, guaranteeing that each insulation strip 30 is attached to its corresponding position on the heat exchanger, reducing the risk of misalignment or displacement of the insulation strip 30.

[0043] The positioning device 1 positions the insulation material 20, thus ensuring good stability of the insulation material 20 during the process of the gripping mechanism 22 peeling off the insulation strips 30, thereby minimizing the impact on production cycle time. It is understandable that when the insulation material 20 is placed on the positioning device 1, the anti-stick sheet is in contact with the positioning device 1, and all insulation strips 30 are located on the side of the anti-stick sheet facing away from the positioning device 1.

[0044] For example, please refer to Figure 2Multiple insulation strips 30 are arranged along the first direction, so that the insulation material 20 is relatively regular and easy for the gripping mechanism 22 to peel off the insulation strips 30.

[0045] The specific type of anti-sticking sheet is not limited. For example, the anti-sticking sheet can be release paper, which provides a good anti-sticking effect.

[0046] The insulation strip assembly device 10 provided in this application embodiment eliminates the need for manual labor in the entire process from peeling off the insulation strip 30 to pasting it, as is done in related technologies. This speeds up the production cycle and improves the automation level and production efficiency of the insulation strip peeling and assembly process. Furthermore, the gripping mechanism 22 ensures good consistency in pasting the insulation strip 30, guaranteeing that each insulation strip 30 is pasted to its corresponding position on the heat exchanger, preventing problems such as misalignment or displacement of the insulation strip 30.

[0047] In one embodiment, the gripping mechanism 22 includes a first suction cup 221, which is used to grip or release the insulation strip 30. That is, the gripping mechanism 22 peels off and grips the insulation strip 30 by the adsorption force of the first suction cup 221, or releases the insulation strip 30 after it is pasted onto the heat exchanger, which is convenient and quick.

[0048] For example, the first suction cup 221 can be a needle-type suction cup. This is because the insulation strip 30 has a porous structure, and common vacuum suction cups cannot easily create a vacuum environment to grip the insulation strip 30. By using the steel needle of the needle-type suction cup to pierce or embed into the insulation strip 30, the insulation strip 30 can be gripped stably. This not only makes it easier for the gripping mechanism 22 to peel the insulation strip 30 from the insulation material 20, but also ensures that the insulation strip 30 will not fall off during the movement of the gripping mechanism 22.

[0049] For one example, please refer to Figure 3 The first suction cup 221 has multiple components, which can further improve the stability of the gripping mechanism 22 in gripping the insulation material 20.

[0050] In one embodiment, the robotic arm 21 may be a four-axis robotic arm, a five-axis robotic arm, or a six-axis robotic arm, etc.

[0051] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 The insulation strip assembly device 10 includes a conveying device 3, a positioning device 1, and a gripping device 2 located on the same side of the conveying device 3. The conveying device 3 is used to convey the heat exchanger to the gripping device 2. In this way, the positioning device 1 and the gripping device 2 are close to each other, which makes it convenient and quick for the gripping mechanism 22 to grip the insulation strip 30.

[0052] For example, please refer to Figure 1The conveying device 3 is configured to transport the air conditioning device 100 along a first direction. The positioning device 1 and the gripping device 2 are both located on the same side of the conveying device 3 along a second direction. After the gripping mechanism 22 has finished peeling off, the robotic arm 21 drives the gripping mechanism 22 to rotate, positioning it above the conveying device 3. The conveying device 3 transports the air conditioning device 100 below the gripping mechanism 22, and the robotic arm 21 drives the gripping mechanism 22 downwards, attaching the insulation strip 30 to the heat exchanger. After attachment, the robotic arm 21 drives the gripping mechanism 22 to repeat the aforementioned steps.

[0053] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 The positioning device 1 includes a positioning mechanism 11 and a pressing mechanism 12. The positioning mechanism 11 is used to place and position the insulation material 20; the pressing mechanism 12 is used to press a portion of the insulation material 20 against the positioning mechanism 11 or to release the insulation material 20. Specifically, the pressing mechanism 12 first presses a portion of the insulation material 20, and the gripping mechanism 22 peels the insulation strip 30 from the unpressed portion of the insulation material 20. After peeling, the pressing mechanism 12 releases the pressed portion. In this way, through the combined action of the positioning mechanism 11 and the pressing mechanism 12, the insulation material 20 maintains good stability during the peeling process.

[0054] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 The positioning mechanism 11 includes a positioning plate 111, a positioning block 112, and a pushing structure 113. The pushing structure 113 and the positioning block 112 are spaced apart on the positioning plate 111. The positioning plate 111 is used to place the insulation material 20, and the pushing structure 113 is used to push the insulation material 20 to abut against the positioning block 112 to achieve the positioning of the insulation material 20.

[0055] For example, please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 The positioning block 112 and the pushing structure 113 are spaced apart along a first direction. The pushing structure 113 includes a pushing plate 1131 and a pushing drive member 1132, which drives the pushing plate 1131 to move along the first direction. Thus, before the insulation material 20 is placed, the pushing drive member 1132 drives the pushing plate 1131 to move away from the positioning plate 111 in the first direction, providing a large clearance between the pushing plate 1131 and the positioning block 112, facilitating the placement of the insulation material 20 onto the positioning plate 111. When the insulation material 20 is placed on the positioning plate 111, the pushing drive member 1132 drives the pushing plate 1131 to move closer to the positioning plate 111 in the first direction, causing the insulation material 20 to abut against the positioning block 112. This achieves the positioning of the insulation material 20, with a high degree of automation in the entire positioning process, improving production efficiency.

[0056] The drive component 1132 is a structure that provides power. For example, the drive component 1132 can be a power source such as a cylinder or an electric cylinder.

[0057] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 4 Multiple positioning blocks 112 are arranged at intervals along the second direction. This improves the stability of the insulation material 20 and ensures operational reliability. Please refer to the following for an example. Figure 4 There are two positioning blocks 112, which are spaced apart along the second direction.

[0058] In other embodiments, the positioning block 112 and the pushing structure 113 respectively abut against the opposite sides of the insulation material 20 along the first direction. The positioning block 112 and the pushing structure 113 together restrict the movement of the insulation material 20 along the first direction, further improving the stability of the insulation material 20.

[0059] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 The pressing mechanism 12 includes a pressing rod 121, a connecting frame 122, and a pressing drive 123. The pressing rod 121 is located above the positioning plate 111. The connecting frame 122 connects the pressing drive 123 and the pressing rod 121. The pressing drive 123 drives the connecting frame 122 to move the pressing rod 121 in the up and down direction, so as to press part of the insulation material 20 to the positioning mechanism 11 or release the insulation material 20.

[0060] Please continue reading. Figure 4 and Figure 5 The connecting frame 122 connects the pressure rod 121 and the clamping drive 123 to opposite sides along the vertical direction. The clamping drive 123 is located below the positioning plate 111. In other words, the pushing structure 113 and the clamping mechanism 12 are located in different directions of the positioning plate 111. This not only makes full use of the space and makes the positioning device 1 compact, but also prevents the pushing structure 113 and the clamping mechanism 12 from colliding during operation.

[0061] Understandably, during the positioning process of the insulation material 20, the pressure rod 121 is higher than the insulation material 20 and the pushing structure 113 to avoid collisions. Once the insulation material 20 is positioned, at least one insulation strip 30 is located below the pressure rod 121. The pressing drive 123 drives the pressure rod 121 downwards, and the pressure rod 121 contacts the insulation material 20 until it is pressed firmly. After the gripping mechanism 22 grips the remaining unpressed insulation strips 30, the pressing drive 123 can drive the pressure rod 121 upwards to release the insulation material 20.

[0062] The clamping drive 123 is a structure that provides power. For example, the clamping drive 123 can be a power source such as a cylinder or an electric cylinder.

[0063] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 The positioning device 1 includes a fixed plate 13 and a moving mechanism 14. The moving mechanism 14 and the pressing mechanism 12 are both disposed on the fixed plate 13. The moving mechanism 14 drives the positioning mechanism 11 to move.

[0064] The fixing plate 13 serves to secure the moving mechanism 14 and the clamping mechanism 12, thereby improving the structural stability of the positioning device 1. For example, please refer to... Figure 5 The moving mechanism 14 includes a moving drive 141, which drives the positioning mechanism 11 to move along a first direction. The gripping device 2 is located on one side of the positioning device 1 along the first direction. Taking the arrangement of insulation strips 30 along the first direction as an example: when the pressing mechanism 12 presses some of the insulation material 20, the gripping mechanism 22 grips and peels one of the insulation strips 30 that was not pressed by the pressing mechanism 12 from the anti-stick sheet. After peeling, the pressing drive 123 drives the pressure rod 121 to move upward to release the insulation material 20. The moving drive 141 drives the positioning mechanism 11 to move along the first direction toward the side closer to the gripping device 2. After reaching the preset position, the pressing drive 123 drives the pressure rod 121 to move downward and press the insulation material 20. The gripping mechanism 22 repeats the above operation steps, and so on, until all insulation strips 30 are peeled off.

[0065] In one embodiment, when the pressing mechanism 12 presses down on a portion of the insulation material 20, at least one unpressed insulation strip 30 is located on the side of the pressure bar 121 that is close to the gripping device 2 along the first direction, so that the gripping mechanism 22 can peel off and grip the insulation strip 30.

[0066] The moving drive 141 is a structure that provides power. For example, the moving drive 141 can be a power source such as a cylinder or an electric cylinder.

[0067] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 6 The insulation strip assembly device 10 includes a transfer device 4, which is used to remove the anti-sticking sheet of the insulation material 20 from the positioning device 1 after all the insulation strips 30 of the insulation material 20 have been peeled off.

[0068] For example, please continue reading Figure 1 The transfer device 4 is located on the side of the positioning device 1 that is close to the gripping device 2 along the first direction. In this way, when all the insulation strips 30 of the insulation material 20 have been peeled off, the positioning mechanism 11 is located below the transfer device 4. At this time, the anti-sticking sheet is located approximately below the transfer device 4, which makes it easier for the transfer device 4 to move the anti-sticking sheet out of the positioning device 1.

[0069] In one embodiment, the insulation strip assembly device 10 includes an anti-sticking sheet recycling device. The transfer device 4 can move the anti-sticking sheet to the anti-sticking sheet recycling device, thus avoiding the anti-sticking sheets from being placed haphazardly and affecting the production environment.

[0070] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 6 The transfer device 4 includes a second suction cup 41, which is used to grasp or release the anti-stick sheet. That is, the transfer device 4 grasps or releases the anti-stick sheet by the suction force of the second suction cup 41, which is convenient and quick.

[0071] For example, the second suction cup 41 can be a vacuum suction cup.

[0072] For one example, please refer to Figure 6 The second suction cup 41 has multiple components, which can further improve the stability of the transfer device 4 in gripping the anti-sticking sheet.

[0073] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 7 The insulation strip assembly device 10 includes a feeding device 5, which comprises a hopper 51 and a picking clamp 52. The hopper 51 stores insulation material 20, and the picking clamp 52 picks up one piece of insulation material 20 and places it into the positioning device 1. The hopper 51 maintains the insulation material 20 in a regular position, facilitating the picking clamp 52 to pick up the insulation material 20. By automatically picking up the insulation material 20 and placing it into the positioning device 1 using the picking clamp 52, the automation of the assembly process can be further improved.

[0074] For example, please refer to Figure 1 The feeding device 5 and the positioning device 1 are both located on the same side of the conveying device 3 along the second direction. The feeding device 5 is located on the side of the positioning device 1 away from the gripping device 2 along the first direction. The feeding device 5 includes a material-grabbing drive 53, which drives the material-grabbing clamp 52 to move along the first direction. That is, the material-grabbing drive 53 drives the material-grabbing clamp 52 to move back and forth between the feeding device 5 and the positioning device 1, so that the material-grabbing clamp 52 can quickly grab the heat-insulating material 20 and place it on the positioning device 1.

[0075] The material handling drive 53 is a structure that provides power. For example, the material handling drive 53 can be a power source such as a cylinder or an electric cylinder.

[0076] In one embodiment, the material handling fixture 52 includes a third suction cup 521, which is used to grasp or release the insulation material 20. That is, the material handling fixture 52 grasps the insulation material 20 or releases the insulation material 20 to the positioning device 1 by the suction force of the third suction cup 521, which is convenient and quick.

[0077] For example, the third suction cup 521 can be a needle-type suction cup. This is because the insulation material 20 has a porous structure, and common vacuum suction cups cannot create a vacuum environment using the insulation material 20 to grasp the insulation material 20. By using the steel needle of the needle-type suction cup to pierce or embed into the insulation material 20, the insulation material 20 can be grasped stably, ensuring that the insulation material 20 will not fall off during the movement of the material handling fixture 52.

[0078] For one example, please refer to Figure 7 The third suction cup 521 has multiple suction cups, which can further improve the stability of the material gripper 52 in gripping the insulation material 20.

[0079] In some embodiments, the feeding device 5 includes a liftable lifting plate disposed within the hopper 51, on which multiple insulation materials 20 are stacked vertically. That is, the lifting plate can move vertically, so that after the material-grabbing clamp 52 grasps the top layer of insulation material 20, the lifting plate rises, and the material-grabbing clamp 52 can, while maintaining the original height, grasp the next layer of insulation material 20 from the same position, which is convenient and quick.

[0080] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 The feeding device 5, positioning device 1, transfer device 4, and gripping device 2 are all located on the same side of the conveying device 3. Furthermore, the feeding device 5, positioning device 1, transfer device 4, and gripping device 2 are arranged sequentially, with their arrangement direction basically consistent with the conveying direction of the conveying device 3. Thus, on the one hand, from the process of picking up and positioning the insulation material 20 to the process of peeling off and pasting the insulation strip 30, all movable components, such as the picking clamp 52, positioning mechanism 11, and pushing structure 113, move in basically the same direction, thereby reducing the number of actions of the insulation strip assembly device 10, accelerating the production cycle, and improving production efficiency. On the other hand, the overall arrangement of the insulation strip assembly device 10 is neat and orderly, providing a good working environment.

[0081] This application also provides a production line for an air conditioning device 100, including the insulation strip assembly device 10 as described in any embodiment of this application. Thus, the assembly efficiency of the insulation strip 30 and the heat exchanger is improved by the insulation strip assembly device 10, thereby increasing the production efficiency of the air conditioning device 100.
