[0017] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention.

[0018] like Figure 1-5 As shown, this embodiment provides a repair station, including a station body 1, a connecting line 2, an assembly platform 3, a three-axis mechanism 4, an electric gripper 5, an extension structure 6, and a position adjustment structure 7. The station body 1 has a tray inlet 11 and a tray outlet 12 on its left and right sides, respectively. The connecting line 2 runs through the interior of the station body 1, with one end extending to the tray inlet 11 and the other end extending to the tray outlet 12. The connecting line 2 is used to transport the tray, on which the workpiece to be repaired is placed. The station body 1, the connecting line 2, the assembly platform 3, the three-axis mechanism 4, the electric gripper 5, and the extension structure 6 are all existing technologies, as shown in CN222134837U, a repair station for flexible processing. These are not the focus of this invention, and their related structures will not be described in detail here.

[0019] However, when a maintenance station for flexible processing was put into use, it was found that the design had significant defects in terms of workstation expandability. The workstation layout was fixed to the assembly platform 3 and lacked a space expansion mechanism. When production needs changed and workstations needed to be added or adjusted, the main body of the workstation 1 needed to be completely renovated or even the equipment replaced. Here, replacing the equipment refers to the entire maintenance station.

[0020] The following will explain the improvements of this application. First, an adjustment window 13 is provided on the back of the workstation body 1, that is, the back of the workstation body 1 is hollow, thus forming an adjustment window 13 for the extension and retraction adjustment of the structure 6.

[0021] The extension structure 6 is described below. The maintenance station also includes the aforementioned extension structure 6. Specifically, the extension structure 6 includes a back plate 61, a top plate 62, a side plate 63, meshing teeth 64, a lifting component 65, and an extension base plate 66. The back plate 61 is attached to the back of the main body 1 of the station. The top plate 62 is fixed to the front side of the back plate 61. The side plate 63 is vertically fixed to both sides of the bottom of the top plate 62. A groove is provided on the outer side of one side plate 63. Multiple meshing teeth 64 are fixedly arranged linearly in the groove. The extension base plate 66 can be raised and lowered below the top plate 62 through the lifting component 65.

[0022] It should be noted that the upper surface of the top plate 62 is flush with the inner top wall of the workstation body 1, and the upper surface of the back plate 61 is flush with the upper surface of the workstation body 1.

[0023] In the preferred design, the lifting component 65 includes a slide 651, a nut seat 652, a lead screw 653, and a slide rail 654. The slide 651 is fixed to the front side of the back plate 61, the lead screw 653 is vertically arranged inside the slide 651, the nut seat 652 is assembled on the outside of the lead screw 653, and the slide rail 654 is symmetrically distributed on both sides of the slide 651 to ensure the stability of the extension base plate 66 when it is raised and lowered.

[0024] Additionally, it should be noted that the extension base plate 66 is connected to the lead screw 653 via the nut seat 652, so that the height of the extension base plate 66 can be manually adjusted by rotating the rotating cap 655 at the bottom of the lead screw 653.

[0025] The position adjustment structure 7 is described as follows: it is connected to the main body 1 of the workstation and drives the extension structure 6 to shuttle through the adjustment window 13 via the meshing teeth 64. Specifically, the position adjustment structure 7 includes a motor 71, a reducer, a drive shaft 72, and a drive wheel 73. The motor 71 is fixed to the outside of the main body 1 of the workstation and is connected to the drive shaft 72 via the reducer. The drive wheel 73 is installed at the end of the drive shaft 72 and is embedded in the groove of the side plate 63 and meshes with the meshing teeth 64. That is, the drive wheel 73 is located in the groove and meshes with the side plate 63 via the meshing teeth 64. Thus, after the motor 71 is started, the drive wheel 73 drives the extension structure 6 to move horizontally along the adjustment window 13 via the meshing teeth 64, thereby realizing the lateral expansion of the workstation space.

[0026] In addition, a mounting plate is fixed to the back of the back plate 61, and two sets of support seats 67 are fixed to the bottom of the mounting plate. The support seats 67 are equipped with adjustable feet 68, and the feet 68 have threaded rods. The bottom of the support seats 67 has threaded holes, and the threaded rods are threaded to the threaded holes. Thus, by rotating the threaded rods of the feet 68, the support height can be adjusted to ensure the horizontal stability of the extension structure 6. Multiple linearly distributed reinforcing ribs are fixed between the back plate 61 and the mounting plate to enhance the overall structural strength.

[0027] In summary, the design station expansion operation process is as follows: Workstation expansion preparation: When a new workstation needs to be added, start the motor 71 of the position adjustment structure 7. The drive wheel 73 drives the expansion structure 6 to move outward through the meshing teeth 64, so that the expansion base plate 66 extends from the adjustment window 13 to the preset position. Adjust the screw 653 by rotating the cap 655, so that the expansion base plate 66 moves down to be flush with the table surface of the workstation body 1, forming the installation surface of the expansion workstation, and installing the new assembly platform 3.

[0028] Workstation module installation: Fix the new workstation module onto the expansion base plate 66, adjust the height of the foot 68 to ensure the support stability of the expansion structure 6 and the main body of the workstation 1, and replace the new three-axis mechanism 4 to handle maintenance operations at the new workstation.

[0029] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model, but the scope of protection of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in this utility model, based on the technical solution and inventive concept of this utility model, should be included within the scope of protection of this utility model.
