Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of tooling technology, and in particular to a flexible lifting device. Background Technology

[0002] Generally, the following methods are used for loading: automatic loading by robots, manual loading, and loading with the assistance of lifting devices. Robot loading can meet production needs, but it is very expensive and requires a large initial investment. Manual loading usually involves two operators lifting and carrying the inner side panels, which not only wastes manpower, but also puts a lot of labor on the operators and poses safety hazards.

[0003] Therefore, improving the convenience of installing inner side panels is a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved. Utility Model Content

[0004] This application provides a flexible lifting device that improves the ease of lifting inner side panel components.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the main technical solutions adopted in this application include:

[0006] In a first aspect, embodiments of this application provide a flexible lifting device, including a lifting assembly, a first moving assembly, a first driving member, and a gripping assembly; the first moving assembly is movably disposed on the lifting assembly along a first direction; the first driving member is disposed on the first moving assembly and has a moving part, and the moving part is movable relative to the first moving assembly along a second direction, the first direction and the second direction intersect; the gripping assembly is rotatably disposed on the first moving assembly, and the gripping assembly is rotatably connected to the moving part so as to rotate relative to the first moving assembly under the drive of the moving part.

[0007] According to the flexible lifting fixture proposed in this application embodiment, the first moving component is driven to rotate by the moving part to achieve angle switching between the gripping component of the first moving component and the loading position of the material cart. After the angle switching, the parts can be lifted directly without manual angle adjustment. This not only greatly reduces the labor intensity of operators, but also reduces safety hazards such as parts slipping, greatly improves the convenience and efficiency of loading the inner side panel, significantly improves the production rhythm of the assembly line, and comprehensively improves the efficiency, stability and safety of loading. At the same time, relying on the angle switching driven by the mechanical structure, the accuracy of each angle adjustment can be strictly guaranteed, avoiding the deviation that is easy to occur by manual calibration, reducing assembly rework caused by incorrect angles, and ensuring the stability of assembly quality.

[0008] Optionally, the gripping component includes a first rod, a second rod, and a hook. The extension directions of the first rod and the second rod intersect. The first rod is rotatably connected to a first moving component, the second rod is fixed to the first rod and rotatably connected to the moving component, and the hook is disposed on the first rod.

[0009] In the above scheme, the first rod and the second rod extend in the same direction and are fixedly connected to form a rigid integrated structure. When the moving part drives the second rod, it can simultaneously drive the first rod to rotate. The rotational connection between the first rod and the first moving component, and the rotational connection between the second rod and the moving part, constitute a stable lever transmission structure. This ensures that the rotation angle of the gripping component strictly follows the displacement change of the moving part, avoiding angle deviation caused by transmission gaps or deformation, and ensuring precise and controllable angle switching between the two states of the material cart: the picking position and the loading position.

[0010] Optionally, the gripping assembly also includes a suction cup and a third rod, wherein the third rod is disposed on the second rod and the suction cup is disposed on the third rod.

[0011] In the above solution, the third rod acts as a connecting carrier, which can support the suction cup, thereby integrating the suction cup with other parts in the gripping assembly into a whole. This ensures that the suction cup can accurately follow the rotation of the first rod to adjust the angle when the moving part is driven. The suction cup and the hook can work together to grip the inner side panel. This design can achieve rigid positioning of the parts through the hook, and enhance the adhesion between the parts and the gripping assembly through the suction force of the suction cup, which helps to improve gripping stability.

[0012] Optionally, the third rod has a bracket with a spherical groove, and the suction cup includes a connected suction cup body and a spherical component, which rotatably engages with the spherical groove.

[0013] In the above solution, the spherical groove of the bracket provides multi-directional rotation space for the spherical part of the suction cup, so that the suction cup body can adaptively adjust the adsorption angle according to the actual shape of the inner side panel surface. This avoids problems such as poor adhesion of the suction cup, air leakage, or insufficient adsorption force caused by uneven surface of the parts. It ensures that the suction cup can form a stable fit with the parts regardless of whether the surface of the parts is regular or not. At the same time, it can reduce the adsorption deviation caused by the overall angle adjustment not being able to fully match the surface details of the parts.

[0014] Optionally, the flexible spreader further includes a clamping mechanism disposed on the third rod portion. The clamping mechanism includes a first jaw and a second jaw, at least one of which is rotatable relative to the third rod portion, so that at least a portion of the first jaw and the second jaw moves closer to or further away from each other.

[0015] In the above solution, at least one of the first and second grippers is rotatable, which can flexibly adjust the opening and closing angle and the fitting posture. It can not only adapt to the edges or protruding structures of different sized side inner panels, but also achieve precise fitting for the irregular contours of the part surface, avoiding clamping misalignment caused by rigid fixation of the grippers. In addition, the suction cup provides vertical fixing force by adsorbing from the surface, and the rotatable grippers provide lateral constraint force by clamping from the side or edge, effectively preventing the side inner panel from shifting or slipping when the angle is changed or when it is moved. Especially for parts with heavy weight or smooth surface, it greatly improves the gripping stability.

[0016] Optionally, the flexible spreader also includes a second drive member disposed on the third rod portion, and the power output end of the second drive member is connected to at least one of the first gripper and the second gripper.

[0017] In the above solution, the second drive component can act as a power source. By setting the second drive component at the third rod, it can directly provide stable power for the rotation of the first or second gripper, replacing the traditional manual operation of prying the gripper. This not only greatly reduces the labor intensity of the operator, but also avoids the problem of insecure clamping or damage to parts caused by uneven force or angle deviation during manual clamping. Especially for heavy-duty side inner panels, the drive component can precisely control the opening and closing range and clamping force of the gripper, thereby improving clamping stability.

[0018] Optionally, the first rod includes a rod body and a sliding ring. The rod body is rotatably connected to the first moving component, the position of the sliding ring on the rod body is adjustable, and the sliding ring is provided with a hook.

[0019] In the above solution, the sliding ring can be flexibly adjusted along the rod body. It can accurately move the hook to the optimal gripping point according to the size, weight distribution or preset lifting point position of the side inner panel of different specifications. It can be compatible with the lifting point requirements of different models. It can be adapted to various models of side inner panels without replacing special hooks or disassembling the rod body, reducing the cost of parts replacement and operation time.

[0020] Optionally, there may be multiple sliding rings, and each sliding ring may be provided with at least one hook.

[0021] In the above scheme, multiple sliding rings are distributed along the rod body, and their positions can be adjusted and matched with their respective hooks. The position and number of hooks can be flexibly combined according to the size of the inner side panel, weight distribution, or number of surface hanging points.

[0022] Optionally, the sliding ring is slidably fitted to the rod body, and the flexible spreader also includes a locking element that passes through the sliding ring and can optionally abut against the rod body.

[0023] In the above solution, the sliding ring slides along the rod body and can freely adjust the position of the hook to adapt to the lifting point requirements of different specifications of the side panel inner panel. After the locking part passes through the sliding ring, it can be selected to stop against the rod body. It can quickly lock the sliding ring after the hook position is adjusted to the right position, so as to prevent the sliding ring from shifting due to vibration or the weight of the parts when the side panel inner panel is grabbed, transferred or the angle is changed. This prevents the hook from deviating from the lifting point and causing the parts to tilt, shake or even slip.

[0024] Optionally, the flexible spreader also includes an operating handle, which is disposed on the first moving component and has an operating switch that is electrically connected to the first driving component.

[0025] In the above solution, the operating handle is located on the first moving component, allowing the operator to hold the handle nearby to control the overall movement of the spreader, which greatly improves the convenience of operation. The operating switch is directly connected to the first driving component, which allows the operator to conveniently operate the first driving component to adjust the angle of the gripping component while moving the spreader, without the need for separate operation of both hands or multiple people to cooperate, thus greatly improving the efficiency of operation.

[0047] In this application, the reference to "embodiment" means that a specific feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with an embodiment may be included in at least one embodiment of this application. The appearance of this phrase in various places throughout the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a mutually exclusive, independent, or alternative embodiment. It will be explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described in this application can be combined with other embodiments.

[0048] In the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "linking," and "attachment" should be interpreted broadly.

[0050] In this application, "multiple" refers to two or more (including two), and similarly, "multiple groups" refers to two or more (including two), and "multiple pieces" refers to two or more (including two).

[0051] Generally, the following methods are used for loading: automatic loading by robots, manual loading, and loading with the assistance of lifting devices. Robot loading can meet production needs, but it is very expensive and requires a large initial investment. Manual loading usually involves two operators lifting and carrying the inner side panels, which not only wastes manpower, but also puts a lot of labor on the operators and poses safety hazards.

[0052] Current technology for lifting device auxiliary components cannot achieve cross-vehicle compatibility, and the lifting devices have low flexibility. Developing a corresponding lifting device for each vehicle model would increase investment costs and reduce production cycle time.

[0053] Therefore, improving the convenience of installing inner side panels is a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved.

[0054] In view of this, in order to improve the convenience of side panel inner plate parts, this application embodiment proposes a flexible lifting tool, in which the gripping component 400 is rotatably disposed on the first moving component 200, and the gripping component 400 is rotatably connected to the moving part 310 so as to rotate relative to the first moving component 200 under the drive of the moving part 310. The first moving component 200 is driven to rotate by the moving part 310 to realize the angle switching of the gripping component 400 of the first moving component 200 in two states: the material cart picking position and the loading position. After the angle is switched, the parts can be lifted directly without manual angle adjustment, which greatly improves the convenience and efficiency of side panel inner plate parts.

[0055] The following description, with reference to the accompanying drawings, describes a flexible lifting device according to an embodiment of this application.

[0056] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 According to a first aspect of this application, a flexible lifting device includes a lifting assembly 100, a first moving assembly 200, a first driving component 300, and a gripping assembly 400.

[0057] Along the first direction X, the first moving component 200 is movably disposed on the hoisting component 100; it can be understood that the first moving component 200 can play the role of adjusting the position of the gripping component 400. Specifically, the first moving component 200 is movable along the first direction X, which can drive the gripping component 400 to quickly transfer between the material pick-up position and the loading position of the material cart, which helps to improve the handling efficiency.

[0058] As an example, the hoisting assembly 100 includes a sliding rod, and the first moving assembly 200 includes a vertical rod slidably disposed on the sliding rod. The extension direction of the sliding rod is the first direction X, which can be any direction in the horizontal plane. This application does not limit this direction.

[0059] The first driving member 300 is disposed on the first moving component 200 and has a moving part 310. The moving part 310 can move relative to the first moving component 200 along the second direction Y. The first direction X and the second direction Y intersect.

[0060] Specifically, the first driving member 300 includes a body portion, and a movable portion 310 is movably disposed on the body portion. The body portion is fixedly disposed on the first moving component 200 to move with the first moving component 200, thereby allowing the movable portion 310 to move relative to the first moving component 200. As an example, the first driving member 300 can be constructed as a cylinder, that is, the movable portion 310 can be constructed as the power output end of a cylinder. The second direction Y can be a vertical direction, and this application does not limit it in this regard.

[0061] The gripping component 400 is rotatably disposed on the first moving component 200, and the gripping component 400 is rotatably connected to the moving part 310 so as to rotate relative to the first moving component 200 under the drive of the moving part 310.

[0062] Specifically, when the first moving component 200 moves to the picking position, the first driving component 300 controls the moving part 310 to move along the second direction Y, driving the gripping component 400 to automatically rotate to the first preset angle, thereby gripping the side inner panel placed in the material cart. The part can be directly and stably clamped without manual prying, avoiding the part from slipping or being damaged during picking due to angle deviation.

[0063] When the first moving component 200 moves to the loading position, the moving part 310 can move in the opposite direction, thereby causing the gripping component 400 to rotate and tilt to the second preset angle, and then causing the side inner panel gripped by the gripping component 400 to tilt to the second preset angle, thereby realizing the rapid transfer of the side inner panel between the material cart loading position and the loading position.

[0064] As an example, the first preset angle is the angle at which the inner side panel is placed in the material picking position of the trolley, for example, parallel to the vertical direction, and the second preset angle is the angle at which the inner side panel is placed in the loading position, for example, intersecting the vertical direction.

[0065] In the above scheme, the first moving component 200 is rotated by the moving part 310 to realize the angle switching of the gripping component 400 of the first moving component 200 in the two states of the material cart picking position and the loading position. After the angle is switched, the parts can be lifted directly without manual angle adjustment, which greatly improves the convenience and efficiency of the inner panel of the side panel and significantly improves the production rhythm of the assembly line.

[0066] Meanwhile, relying on the angle switching driven by the mechanical structure, the accuracy of each angle adjustment can be strictly guaranteed, avoiding the deviations that are easy to occur in manual calibration, reducing assembly rework caused by mismatched angles, and ensuring the stability of assembly quality.

[0067] In addition, there is no need for manual close contact with the heavy-duty side panel inner panel for angle adjustment, which greatly reduces the labor intensity of operators and reduces safety hazards such as parts slipping, thus comprehensively improving the efficiency, stability and safety of loading.

[0068] In other embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The gripping component 400 includes a first rod portion 410, a second rod portion 420, and a hook 430. The extension direction of the first rod portion 410 intersects the extension direction of the second rod portion 420. The first rod portion 410 is rotatably connected to the first moving component 200. The second rod portion 420 is fixed to the first rod portion 410 and rotatably connected to the moving component 310. The hook 430 is disposed on the first rod portion 410.

[0069] In the above scheme, the first rod 410 and the second rod 420 intersect in the direction of extension and are fixedly connected to form a rigid integrated structure. When the moving part 310 drives the second rod 420, it can synchronously drive the first rod 410 to rotate. The rotational connection between the first rod 410 and the first moving component 200, and the rotational connection between the second rod 420 and the moving part 310, can form a stable lever transmission structure, so that the rotation angle of the gripping component 400 strictly follows the displacement change of the moving part 310, avoiding angle deviation caused by transmission gap or deformation, and ensuring that the angle switching between the two states of the material car pick-up position and the loading position is accurate and controllable.

[0070] Meanwhile, the hook 430 is directly set on the first rod 410. The first rod 410, as the main load-bearing structure, can provide stable support for the hook 430. Especially for the heavy inner side panel, it can prevent parts from shaking or falling off due to rod deformation during gripping, thus improving gripping reliability.

[0071] In other embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The gripping component 400 also includes a suction cup 440 and a third rod 450, with the third rod 450 disposed on the second rod 420 and the suction cup 440 disposed on the third rod 450.

[0072] In the above scheme, the third rod 450 serves as a connecting carrier and can support the suction cup 440, thereby integrating the suction cup 440 with other parts in the gripping assembly 400 into a whole, ensuring that the suction cup 440 can accurately follow the rotation of the first rod 410 to adjust the angle when the moving part 310 is driven.

[0073] Meanwhile, the suction cup 440 and the hook 430 can work together to grip the inner side panel. This design allows for both rigid positioning of the part via the hook 430 and enhanced adhesion between the part and the gripping assembly 400 via the suction force of the suction cup 440. This prevents the inner side panel from slipping due to shaking or uneven force during angle switching or transfer, thereby improving the stability of gripping the inner side panel and dispersing the local force at the hook 430, preventing deformation of the part due to excessive force at a single point.

[0074] In addition, the third rod 450 can adjust the installation position of the suction cup 440 according to the surface structure and force requirements of the inner side panel, so that the suction cup 440 can accurately fit the fitting area of ​​the part, further improving the stability of gripping and the adaptability to inner side panels of different specifications. Ultimately, while ensuring accurate angle adjustment, it enhances gripping reliability, improves ease of use, and improves the overall performance of the lifting device.

[0075] In other embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The third rod portion 450 has a bracket 451, which is provided with a spherical groove 451a. The suction cup 440 includes a connected suction cup body 441 and a spherical component 442, which is rotatably fitted into the spherical groove 451a. Specifically, the suction cup body 441 may include a suction cup portion and a connecting rod. The spherical component 442 is disposed on the connecting rod. The suction cup portion is used to adsorb the inner side panel. The connecting rod serves to connect the suction cup portion and the bracket 451. The spherical component 442 can rotate in the spherical groove 451a, thereby changing the orientation of the suction cup body 441, achieving adsorption of the surface of different vehicle models, and greatly improving the adaptability and adsorption reliability of the suction cup 440 to the inner side panel.

[0076] In the above solution, the spherical groove 451a of the bracket 451 provides a multi-directional rotation space for the spherical part 442, so that the suction cup body 441 can adaptively adjust the adsorption angle according to the actual shape of the inner side panel surface. This avoids problems such as poor adhesion of the suction cup 440, air leakage, or insufficient adsorption force caused by uneven surface of the part. It ensures that the suction cup 440 can form a stable fit with the part regardless of whether the surface of the part is regular or not. At the same time, it can reduce the adsorption deviation caused by the overall angle adjustment not being able to fully match the surface details of the part.

[0077] In addition, the flexible rotation characteristics of the spherical joint can buffer the slight shaking of the parts during the transfer process, avoid damage to the suction cup 440 due to excessive force, and reduce the local pressure of the suction cup 440 on the surface of the parts, preventing indentations or damage to the surface of the inner side panel. Ultimately, while enhancing the gripping and fixing effect, it also takes into account the protection of the parts and the adaptability to parts with different surface shapes, ensuring the stable operation of continuous operation.

[0078] In other embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The flexible lifting device also includes a clamping mechanism 500, which is disposed on the third rod portion 450. The clamping mechanism 500 includes a first jaw 510 and a second jaw 520. At least one of the first jaw 510 and the second jaw 520 is rotatable relative to the third rod portion 450 so that at least a portion of the first jaw 510 and the second jaw 520 moves closer to or further away from each other.

[0079] In the above scheme, at least one of the first gripper 510 and the second gripper 520 is rotatable, which can flexibly adjust the opening and closing angle and the fitting posture. It can not only adapt to the edge or protruding structure of the inner side panel of different sizes, but also achieve precise fitting for the irregular contour of the part surface, avoiding clamping misalignment caused by the rigid fixation of the gripper.

[0080] In addition, the suction cup 440 provides vertical fixation force by adsorbing from the surface, and the rotatable gripper provides lateral constraint force by clamping from the side or edge, effectively preventing the inner panel of the side panel from shifting or slipping when the angle is changed or when it is moved. This greatly improves the gripping stability, especially for parts that are heavy or have a smooth surface.

[0081] Specifically, the first gripper 510 can be configured as part of the third rod portion 450, and the second gripper 520 is rotatably connected to the third rod portion 450, thereby cooperating with the first gripper 510 to clamp the inner side panel.

[0082] In other embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2The flexible spreader also includes a second drive member 600, which is disposed on the third rod portion 450. The power output end of the second drive member 600 is connected to at least one of the first gripper 510 and the second gripper 520.

[0083] As an example, the second drive member 600 may be configured as a cylinder, the power output end of which is connected to at least one of the first gripper 510 and the second gripper 520, thereby bringing the first gripper 510 and the second gripper 520 closer to or further away from each other.

[0084] In the above solution, the second drive component 600 can act as a power source. By setting the second drive component 600 at the third rod 450, it can directly provide stable power for the rotation of the first gripper 510 or the second gripper 520, replacing the traditional manual operation of prying the gripper. This not only greatly reduces the labor intensity of the operator, but also avoids the problem of insecure clamping or damage to parts caused by uneven force or angle deviation during manual clamping. Especially for heavy-duty side panel inner panels, the drive component can precisely control the opening and closing range and clamping force of the gripper, thereby improving clamping stability.

[0085] Meanwhile, when in the pick-up position, the drive unit can simultaneously drive the gripper to clamp the part, and together with the suction cup 440, form a double fixation; after the angle is switched when transferring to the loading position, the gripper can be precisely controlled to release according to the assembly requirements.

[0086] In other embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The first rod portion 410 includes a rod body 411 and a sliding ring 412. The rod body 411 is rotatably connected to the first moving component 200. The position of the sliding ring 412 on the rod body 411 is adjustable. The sliding ring 412 is provided with a hook 430.

[0087] In the above solution, the sliding ring 412 can be flexibly adjusted along the rod body 411. It can accurately move the hook 430 to the optimal gripping point according to the size, weight distribution or preset lifting point position of the side inner panel of different specifications. It can be compatible with the lifting point requirements of different models. It can be adapted to various models of side inner panels without replacing the special hook 430 or disassembling the rod body, reducing the cost of parts replacement and operation time.

[0088] Meanwhile, by adjusting the position of the hook 430, the force on the inner side panel can be more even when gripping, avoiding tilting or shaking of parts during transfer due to deviation of the hook 430 position, or deformation caused by excessive local force, thus further enhancing gripping stability. In addition, the position adjustment of the sliding ring 412 is simple and does not require interruption of the rotational engagement between the first rod 410 and the first moving component 200, while improving gripping safety and operational efficiency.

[0089] In other embodiments, please refer to Figure 1and Figure 2 There are multiple sliding rings 412, and each sliding ring 412 is provided with at least one hook 430.

[0090] Understandably, multiple sliding rings 412 are distributed along the rod body 411, and their positions can be adjusted and matched with their respective hooks 430. The positions and number of hooks 430 can be flexibly combined according to the size of the inner side panel, weight distribution, or number of surface hanging points.

[0091] For example, for parts that are large in size or have uneven weight, the force can be distributed through multiple hooks 430 to avoid excessive load on a single point, which could cause deformation of the part. At the same time, each sliding ring 412 is independently adjustable and can be individually adapted to the irregular structure of the part (such as protruding or recessed edges) without the need for overall adjustment of the rod body 411. This ensures the fitting accuracy between each hook 430 and the part, and the multi-point coordinated fixation can greatly reduce the shaking of the part during transfer or angle switching, reducing the risk of slippage.

[0092] In other embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The sliding ring 412 is slidably fitted to the rod body 411. The flexible lifting device also includes a locking member 700, which passes through the sliding ring 412 and can optionally abut against the rod body 411.

[0093] In the above scheme, the sliding ring 412 slides along the rod body 411, and can freely adjust the position of the hook 430 to adapt to the lifting point requirements of different specifications of side panel inner panels. After the locking member 700 passes through the sliding ring 412, it can be selected to abut against the rod body 411. After the position of the hook 430 is adjusted to the correct position, the sliding ring 412 can be quickly locked, preventing the sliding ring 412 from shifting due to vibration or the weight of the parts when the side panel inner panel is grabbed, transferred, or the angle is changed. This prevents the hook 430 from deviating from the lifting point, causing the parts to tilt, shake, or even slip.

[0094] Meanwhile, the locking component 700 is simple and convenient to operate. Unlocking, adjustment and locking can be completed without complicated tools. When adjusting, simply loosen the sliding ring 412 of the locking component 700, and lock it again after adjustment to achieve the position of the adjustment hook 430.

[0095] In other embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The flexible spreader also includes an operating handle 800, which is disposed on the first moving component 200. The operating handle 800 is provided with an operating switch 810, which is electrically connected to the first driving component 300.

[0096] In the above scheme, the operating handle 800 is set on the first moving component 200, allowing the operator to hold the handle nearby to control the overall movement of the lifting device, which greatly improves the convenience of operation. The operating switch 810 is directly associated with the first driving component 300, which allows the operator to conveniently operate the first driving component 300 to adjust the angle of the gripping component 400 while moving the lifting device, without the need for separate operation of both hands or multiple people to cooperate, thus greatly improving the efficiency of operation.

[0097] In addition, operators can visually observe the status of the lifting device and parts by holding the handle. If they find any angular deviation or potential risks, they can immediately start or stop the first drive component 300 by operating the switch 810, so as to avoid the parts tilting or colliding due to control delay and improve operational safety.
