Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application according to the specific circumstances.

[0024] The following will describe some embodiments of this application in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0025] Please see Figure 1 This application provides an assembly device 100, which includes a material distribution component 10, a material transfer component 20, a positioning component 30, a conveying component 40, a guiding component 50, a transfer component 60, and a return component 70.

[0026] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2The material distribution assembly 10 supports multiple stacked trays and releases the bottom tray, each tray carrying multiple small parts. The material transfer assembly 20 is located below the material distribution assembly 10 and is configured to support the released trays and move them to a preset position. The positioning assembly 30 includes a reference member 31, a sliding member 32, and a positioning drive member 33. The reference member 31 is located on one side of the material transfer assembly 20 and has a positioning groove 311. The sliding member 32 is slidably located on one side of the reference member 31 and has a support position 321, which is configured to carry small parts. The sliding member 32 has a positioning body 322, which is located on one side of the support position 321 and movably passes through the positioning groove 311. The positioning drive member 33 is connected to the sliding member 32 and drives the positioning body 322 to push the small parts to the wall of the positioning groove 311 to position them. The conveying assembly 40 is disposed adjacent to the positioning assembly 30 and is configured as a conveying fixture. The guiding assembly 50 includes a guide drive 51, a connector 52, and a guide 53. The guide drive 51 is located on one side of the conveying assembly 40 and connected to the connector 52. The guide 53 is slidably connected to the connector 52 along the conveying direction of the conveying assembly 40. The guide 53 has a guide groove 531 and is used to move closer to the conveying assembly 40 under the drive of the guide drive 51, so that the guide groove 531 guides the small part to the fixture. The transfer assembly 60 is located on one side of the guiding assembly 50 and is used to pick up the small part, driving the small part transfer assembly 20, the positioning assembly 30, and the guiding assembly 50 to move together. The return assembly 70 is located on one side of the transfer assembly 20 and is used to receive and transfer the empty tray released by the transfer assembly 20. For example, the positioning drive 33 and the guide drive 51 can be cylinders.

[0027] When the assembly equipment 100 described above is in use, firstly, the material distribution component 10 releases the bottom tray to the material transfer component 20. The material transfer component 20 moves the tray to a preset position, and the transfer component 60 transfers the small parts into the positioning groove 311, with the small parts located at the support position 321. Then, the positioning drive component 33 drives the sliding component 32 to move the positioning body 322 close to the groove wall of the positioning groove 311, so that the positioning body 322 positions the small parts. After all the small parts on the tray are removed, the return component 70 receives and transfers the empty tray released by the material transfer component 20. Next, the conveying component 40 conveys the fixture to the bottom of the guide component 53, and the guide drive component 51 drives the guide component 53 to move close to the conveying component 40, so that the guide groove 531 corresponds to the fixture. The transfer component 60 transfers the positioned small parts into the guide groove 531 and holds the small parts close to the fixture, so that the small parts are moved out of the guide groove 531 and assembled into the fixture. In this way, the assembly equipment 100 can quickly complete the assembly of small parts by cooperating with its various components, thereby improving assembly efficiency.

[0028] Furthermore, the positioning drive 33 drives the positioning body 322 to move closer to the groove wall of the positioning groove 311 to achieve precise positioning of the small part. The guide drive 51 drives the guide 53 to move closer to the conveying assembly 40 so that the guide groove 531 accurately guides the small part to the fixture. At the same time, during the process of the holding member 63 holding the small part to the fixture, the guide 53 slides relative to the connecting member 52 to accommodate the tolerance between the holding member 63 and the guide 53, thereby achieving precise assembly of the small part to the fixture and improving the assembly accuracy.

[0029] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 3 In some embodiments, the material distribution assembly 10 includes a material distribution component 11, a support component 12, and a lifting component 13. The material distribution component 11 is disposed on one side of the material transfer assembly 20. The support component 12 is connected to the material distribution component 11 and is configured to support a material tray. Under the drive of the material distribution component 11, the support component 12 is inserted between the bottommost material tray and the adjacent material tray. The lifting component 13 is connected to the material distribution component 11 and is used to drive the support component 12 to move the material tray closer to or away from the material transfer assembly 20. Exemplarily, the material distribution component 11 and the lifting component 13 can be cylinders.

[0030] When releasing the bottom tray to the transfer assembly 20, firstly, the lifting member 13 moves the support member 12 and the multiple trays supported by the support member 12 closer to the transfer assembly 20. Then, the distributing member 11 drives the support member 12 to release the trays, placing the multiple trays into the transfer assembly 20. Next, the lifting member 13 raises the support member 12 a preset distance so that the support member 12 is positioned between the bottom tray and its adjacent trays. Finally, the distributing member 11 drives the support member 12 to insert itself between the bottom tray and its adjacent trays, and the lifting member 13 drives the support member 12 to move the other trays away from the transfer assembly 20, thus releasing the bottom tray to the transfer assembly 20. In this way, by setting the specific structure of the distributing assembly 10, the bottom tray can be released quickly, thereby improving the distributing efficiency of the distributing assembly 10 and thus improving assembly efficiency.

[0031] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 3 In some embodiments, the material distribution assembly 10 further includes a plurality of limiting members 14, which are fixedly disposed on one side of the material distribution assembly 11 and surround to form a limiting space 141. The limiting space 141 receives the material tray supported by the supporting member 12, and the limiting member 14 abuts against the material tray to limit the orientation of the material tray.

[0032] Thus, through the above settings, multiple limiting members 14 surround a limiting space 141 to limit the orientation of the material tray, prevent misalignment between the material tray and the support member 12 and the transfer component 20, and ensure that the material distribution component 10 accurately releases the bottom material tray to the transfer component 20, thereby improving the material distribution accuracy.

[0033] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the material transfer assembly 20 includes a support member 21, a carrier member 22, and a material transfer member 23. The support member 21 is disposed on one side of the material distribution assembly 10 and has a guide groove 211 extending along the direction of the material distribution assembly 10 toward a preset position. The carrier member 22 is movably inserted through the guide groove 211 and is used to carry the material tray released by the material distribution assembly 10. The material transfer member 23 is disposed on the support member 21 and connected to the carrier member 22, and is configured to drive the carrier member 22 to move the material tray to the preset position. Exemplarily, the material transfer member 23 can be a cylinder, conveyor belt, linear guide, etc.

[0034] Thus, by setting the specific structure of the material transfer component 20, the material transfer component 23 drives the carrier component 22 to move below the material distribution component 10 so that the carrier component 22 receives the bottom tray. The material transfer component 23 then drives the carrier component 22 to move to the preset position under the guidance of the guide groove 211 to stably provide small parts, thereby improving the material transfer efficiency and accuracy.

[0035] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the material transfer assembly 20 further includes a flexible member 24 and a lifting member 25. The flexible member 24 is movably disposed through the support member 22 in a direction perpendicular to the direction of movement of the support member 22, and is configured to abut against the bottommost tray. The lifting member 25 is disposed on the support member 22 and connected to the flexible member 24, and is used to drive the flexible member 24 out of the support member 22. Exemplarily, the flexible member 24 can be made of silicone, urethane, etc., and the lifting member 25 can be a cylinder.

[0036] Thus, with the above configuration, when the support member 12 places multiple trays onto the transfer assembly 20, the lifting member 25 drives the flexible member 24 to extend out of the support member 22, so that the flexible member 24 flexibly abuts against the trays, avoiding damage to the transfer assembly 20 due to excessive weight of multiple trays. After the support member 12 releases the bottom tray, the flexible member 24 retracts into the support member 22 under the drive of the lifting member 25, so that the bottom tray is placed on the support member 22, so that the support member 22 stably supports the bottom tray, thereby improving the transfer stability of the trays.

[0037] Please see Figure 1In some embodiments, the transfer assembly 60 includes a transfer member 61, an adsorption member 62, and a holding member 63. The transfer member 61 is disposed on one side of the reference member 31. The adsorption member 62 is connected to the transfer member 61 and is configured to adsorb small parts, and under the drive of the transfer member 61, the small parts move between the transfer assembly 20, the positioning assembly 30, and the guiding assembly 50. The holding member 63 is connected to the transfer member 61 and spaced apart from the adsorption member 62. The holding member 63 is configured to hold the small parts under the drive of the transfer member 61 and assemble them into the fixture via the guide groove 531. Exemplarily, the transfer member 61 can be a robotic arm, the adsorption member 62 can be any adsorption body, adsorption part, or adsorption plate capable of adsorbing small parts, such as an adsorption rod connected to a cylinder, and the holding member 63 can be any holding part, holding body, or similar holding rod capable of holding small parts, such as a holding block connected to a cylinder.

[0038] Thus, by setting the specific structure of the transfer component 60, the adsorption member 62 adsorbs the small parts and, driven by the transfer member 61, moves the small parts between the transfer component 20, the positioning component 30, and the guiding component 50, thereby improving the transfer efficiency of the small parts. The holding member 63, driven by the transfer member 61, holds the small parts against the fixture, thereby achieving rapid completion of the assembly operation of the small parts and improving the assembly efficiency of the small parts. In addition, the transfer component 60 integrates the adsorption and holding operations of the small parts, which is conducive to optimizing the structure of the transfer component 60 and the assembly equipment 100.

[0039] Please see Figure 1 In some embodiments, the return assembly 70 includes a storage unit 71, a return member 72, and a lifting member 73. The storage unit 71 is located on one side of the transfer assembly 20 and is used to store empty trays. The return member 72 is located on one side of the storage unit 71 and is configured to transfer empty trays to the storage unit 71. The lifting member 73 is located at the end of the return member 72 away from the storage unit 71 and is positioned at a preset position. The lifting member 73 is used to move closer to the transfer assembly 20 to receive empty trays and to move closer to the return member 72 to release empty trays to the return member 72. Exemplarily, the return member 72 can be a conveyor belt, and the lifting member 73 can be a cylinder connected to a support plate.

[0040] After all the small parts in the tray have been removed, the lifting component 73 moves close to the carrier component 22 and lifts the empty tray away from the carrier component 22. The carrier component 22 then moves towards the distributing component 11 under the drive of the transferring component 23. Then, the lifting component 73 moves the empty tray close to the return component 72 to release the empty tray to the return component 72. Finally, the return component 72 transfers the empty tray to the storage component 71 so that the storage component 71 can store the empty tray. In this way, by setting the specific structure of the return component 70, the recycling operation of the empty tray can be realized, which facilitates the centralized processing of the empty tray.

[0041] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 5 In some embodiments, the storage member 71 includes a fixed body 711, a storage body 712, and a lifting body 713. The fixed body 711 is located at the end of the return member 72 away from the lifting member 73. The storage body 712 is rotatably disposed on the fixed body 711 and elastically connected to the fixed body 711. The storage body 712 is configured to support the tray. The lifting body 713 is located at the end of the return member 72 away from the lifting member 73 and is located below the return member 72. The lifting body 713 is used to lift the tray and push it against the storage body 712 to rotate, so that the elastically reset storage body 712 abuts against the bottom of the tray. Exemplarily, the storage body 712 can be any storage section, storage plate, or storage block capable of storing the tray, such as a storage plate connected to a spring. The lifting body 713 can be a lifting plate connected to a cylinder.

[0042] After the return component 72 transfers the tray to the lifting body 713, the lifting body 713 lifts the tray closer to the storage body 712 and pushes against it. Then, the storage body 712 rotates away from the lifting body 713 under the push of the tray. Next, the lifting body 713 lifts the tray above the storage body 712, after which the storage body 712 elastically resets and rests against the bottom of the tray to store it. Finally, the lifting body 713 returns to its initial position. Thus, by setting the specific structure of the storage component 71, the storage operation of empty trays can be completed quickly, thereby improving overall operational efficiency.

[0043] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, the conveying assembly 40 includes a conveyor 41, a stop 42, and a clamping member 43. The conveyor 41 is disposed on one side of the guide drive 51 and is used to convey a pallet carrying a fixture. The stop 42 is movably disposed through the conveyor 41 and is configured to stop the pallet from reaching below the guide 53. The clamping member 43 is disposed adjacent to the conveyor 41 and is configured to clamp the stopped pallet. Exemplarily, the conveyor 41 can be a conveyor belt, the stop 42 can be any stop portion, stop plate, or similar stop block capable of stopping the pallet, such as a stop block connected to a cylinder, and the clamping member 43 can be any clamping portion, clamping plate, or similar clamping block capable of clamping the pallet, such as a clamping block connected to a cylinder.

[0044] Thus, by setting the specific structure of the above-mentioned conveying component 40, the conveying member 41 conveys the tray carrying the fixture, the stop member 42 extends out of the conveying member 41 to stop the fixture to the bottom of the guide member 53 so that the fixture corresponds to the guide groove 531, and the clamping member 43 clamps the tray to fix the tray and the fixture, so as to stably fix the tray and avoid misalignment between the fixture and the guide groove 531, thereby improving the assembly accuracy.

[0045] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, the positioning component 30 further includes a sensor 34 and a detector 35. The sensor 34 is connected to the end of the slider 32 away from the positioning drive 33, and the detector 35 is disposed on one side of the slider 32 and electrically connected to the positioning drive 33 and the transfer component 60. The detector 35 is configured to detect the position information of the sensor 34. Exemplarily, the sensor 34 may be a metal sheet, and the detector 35 may be a metal sensor.

[0046] Thus, with the above settings, when the positioning drive 33 drives the sliding member 32 to move the sensing member 34 to the position of the adjacent detection member 35, the detection member 35 detects the position information of the sensing member 34, determines that the support position 321 on the sliding member 32 is not occupied by the small part, and sends an electrical signal to the positioning drive 33 and the transfer assembly 60, so that the transfer assembly 60 moves the small part to the positioning groove 311, and the positioning drive 33 drives the positioning body 322 to push the small part to the groove wall of the positioning groove 311 to position the small part, thereby achieving accurate positioning of the small part and improving the positioning accuracy.

[0047] The working process of the assembly equipment 100 described above is roughly as follows: First, the lifting component 13 moves the support component 12 and the multiple trays supported by the support component 12 closer to the transfer component 20. Then, the separating component 11 drives the support component 12 to release the trays so that the multiple trays are placed on the carrier component 22. The lifting component 13 drives the support component 12 to rise a preset distance so that the support component 12 is positioned between the bottom tray and the trays adjacent to it. Next, the separating component 11 drives the support component 12 to insert between the bottom tray and the trays adjacent to it. The lifting component 13 drives the support component 12 to move the other trays away from the carrier component 22 so that the bottom tray is released onto the carrier component 22. The transfer component 23 then drives the carrier component 22 to move the trays to a preset position. Then, the adsorption member 62 adsorbs the small part and, driven by the transfer member 61, moves the small part into the positioning groove 311, and the small part is located in the support position 321. The positioning drive member 33 drives the sliding member 32 to move the positioning body 322 close to the groove wall of the positioning groove 311, so that the positioning body 322 positions the small part. After all the small parts on the tray are removed, the lifting member 73 transfers the empty tray to the return member 72, so that the return member 72 transfers the empty tray to the storage member 71 for storage. Next, the stop 42 stops the pallet conveyed by the conveyor 41 so that the fixture corresponds to the guide groove 531 of the guide 53, and the clamping member 43 clamps and fixes the pallet. Finally, the guide drive 51 drives the guide 53 to move closer to the conveyor 41 so that the guide groove 531 corresponds to the fixture. The adsorption member 62 adsorbs the positioned small part, and the small part is transferred into the guide groove 531 under the drive of the transfer member 61. The transfer member 61 then drives the holding member 63 to hold the small part closer to the fixture so as to assemble it into the fixture, thereby realizing the rapid completion of the small part assembly operation and improving the assembly efficiency.

[0048] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this application and are not intended to limit it. Although this application has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of this application without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of this application.
