[Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0003] [Patent Document 1] Patent Publication No. 2021-15225 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] The skill comparison device of Patent Document 1 compares the movements of the reference person and the subject based on the target value and the reference value after the subject has completed the movement, making it difficult to compare skills while the movement is in progress. One of the movements performed by the subject is riveting. Riveting involves placing a backing plate on the other side of the object and driving a riveter from one side of the object using a riveting tool. The quality of the trainee's riveting work is generally determined based on the experience of an expert. This makes it impossible to quantitatively evaluate the quality of the riveting during or after the riveting work, and trainees who perform riveting work need a lot of time to master the proper riveting technique.

[0005] Therefore, an object of the present disclosure is to provide a nail driving assistance device that can suitably assist a worker in driving nails. [Means for solving the problem]

[0009] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to these embodiments. Furthermore, the components in the following embodiments include those that are easily replaceable by those skilled in the art, or those that are substantially identical. Furthermore, the components described below can be combined as appropriate, and when there are multiple embodiments, the respective embodiments can also be combined.

[0010] [Embodiment] The rivet driving assistance device 10 according to this embodiment is an apparatus for assisting a worker in driving rivets into an object W. The rivet driving assistance device 10 can be used, for example, as a rivet driving training device for training workers in rivet driving, or as a rivet driving device for performing actual rivet driving work. In this embodiment, the rivet driving assistance device 10 will be described as being used as a rivet driving training device.

[0011] Here, we will explain the riveting work. The riveting work is the work of driving rivets into the workpiece W, which is the target of the riveting work. In the riveting work, two workers are positioned with the workpiece W on either side, and one worker applies a backing plate to the riveting location on one side of the workpiece W (for example, the back side), while the other worker uses a riveting tool 21 to drive the rivet into the riveting location on the other side of the workpiece W (for example, the front side).

[0012] Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of the fastener driving assist device according to this embodiment. Fig. 2 is a diagram of a screen displayed on the first display unit. Fig. 3 is a diagram of a screen displayed on the second display unit. Fig. 4 is an explanatory diagram of detection information stored in the memory unit. Fig. 5 is a flowchart relating to the processing of the fastener driving assist device.

[0013] (Rack driving support device) The rivet driving support device 10 includes a rivet driving tool 21, a backing plate 22, a first position detector 24, a second position detector 25, a noise meter (sound detector) 27, a first pressure gauge 28, a second pressure gauge 29, a first display unit 31, a second display unit 32, and a control device 35.

[0014] The rivet driving tool 21 is a tool that drives a rivet into the rivet location from the other side of the workpiece W, and is, for example, an air hammer or other tool with a stroke axis I1 (see Figure 4). The rivet driving tool 21 is pressed against the workpiece W via a rivet so that the stroke axis I1 forms a predetermined angle with respect to the workpiece W. The stroke axis I1 is an axis that moves in a stroke direction, which is a direction toward or away from the workpiece W when driving a rivet, and is integrated with the tip of the tool that is driven into the workpiece W. The rivet driving tool 21 is also provided with a trigger 23 for actuating it.

[0015] The contact plate 22 is a member that is pressed against the riveting location from one side of the workpiece W. The contact plate 22 has a support axis I2 (see Figure 4) that is perpendicular to the pressing surface that is pressed against the workpiece W, and is pressed against the workpiece W so that the support axis I2 forms a predetermined angle with respect to the workpiece W.

[0016] The first position detector 24 detects the position of the rivet driving tool 21. Specifically, the first position detector 24 detects the position, direction, and attitude of the rivet driving tool 21 relative to the workpiece W as the position of the rivet driving tool 21. A motion capture system, for example, is used as the first position detector 24.

[0017] The first position detector 24 includes a plurality of markers 41 attached to the rivet driving tool 21 and a plurality of cameras 42 that capture images of the plurality of markers 41. The plurality of markers 41 are attached to the rivet driving tool 21 and are provided at locations where the position, direction, and attitude of the rivet driving tool 21 can be detected. The plurality of markers 41 are also provided on the object W and are provided at locations where the position of the object W can be detected. The plurality of cameras 42 are provided at locations where they can capture images of the plurality of markers 41. The plurality of cameras 42 capture images of the plurality of markers 41 to obtain image information of the plurality of markers 41. The plurality of cameras 42 of the first position detector 24 are connected to the control device 35. The control device 35 performs image processing based on the image information of the plurality of markers 41 to detect the position, direction, and attitude of the rivet driving tool 21.

[0018] The second position detector 25 detects the position of the contact plate 22. Specifically, the second position detector 25 detects the position, direction, and attitude of the contact plate 22 relative to the object W as the position of the contact plate 22. As with the first position detector 24, the second position detector 25 uses, for example, a motion capture system.

[0019] The second position detector 25 is similar to the first position detector 24 and includes a plurality of markers 43 attached to the contact plate 22 and a plurality of cameras 44 that capture images of the plurality of markers 43. The plurality of markers 43 are attached to the contact plate 22 and are provided at locations where the position, direction, and attitude of the contact plate 22 can be detected. In addition, a plurality of markers 43 are also provided on the object W and are provided at locations where the position of the object W can be detected. The plurality of cameras 44 are provided at locations where they can capture images of the plurality of markers 43. The plurality of cameras 44 capture images of the plurality of markers 43 to obtain image information of the plurality of markers 43. The plurality of cameras 44 of the second position detector 25 are connected to the control device 35. The control device 35 executes image processing based on the image information of the plurality of markers 43 to detect the position, direction, and attitude of the contact plate 22.

[0020] Furthermore, the first position detector 24 and the second position detector 25 detect the position of the object W. The control device 35 executes image processing based on image information of the plurality of markers 41, 43 to detect the position of the object W. Note that the position of the object W may be detected using either the first position detector 24 or the second position detector 25.

[0021] The sound level meter 27 detects the sound of the riveting operation. Specifically, the sound level meter 27 detects the sound pressure level of the riveting operation as sound information. The sound level meter 27 is connected to the control device 35. The control device 35 acquires and records the sound pressure level detected by the sound level meter 27 as sound information. In this embodiment, the sound information acquired is the sound pressure level, but this is not particularly limited, and the sound information acquired may also be frequency, etc.

[0022] The first pressure gauge 28 detects the pressure of the rivet driving tool 21 against the workpiece W. The first pressure gauge 28 is provided on the rivet driving tool 21 and outputs the detected pressure to the control device 35 via wireless communication. The control device 35 acquires and records the pressure detected by the first pressure gauge 28.

[0023] The second pressure gauge 29 detects the pressure of the contact plate 22 against the object W. The second pressure gauge 29 is provided on the contact plate 22 and outputs the detected pressure to the control device 35 via wireless communication. The control device 35 acquires and records the pressure detected by the second pressure gauge 29.

[0024] The first display unit 31 notifies the worker and displays a notification screen G1 that provides the notified information. The first display unit 31 is, for example, a display device such as a display. The first display unit 31 is not particularly limited and may be a display device such as a wearable display. The first display unit 31 provides information to the worker who uses the fastening tool 21.

[0025] 2, the notification screen G1 displayed on the first display unit 31 will be described. The notification screen G1 provides information to the worker using the rivet driving tool 21, including information about the position of the rivet driving tool 21 and information about the rivet driving sound.

[0026] The information about the position of the rivet driving tool 21 includes a position P1 of the rivet driving tool 21 relative to the workpiece W and a predetermined position indicator P2 that indicates that rivet driving is appropriate. The position P1 of the rivet driving tool 21 is the attitude of the rivet driving tool 21 relative to the workpiece W, and more specifically, the angle (tilt angle) between the surface of the workpiece W to be riveted and the stroke axis I1 of the rivet driving tool 21. The tilt angle is, for example, defined as a reference axis that is a perpendicular axis intersecting the surface of the workpiece W to be riveted, and is the angle between the perpendicular axis and the stroke axis I1. The reference axis is not limited to a perpendicular axis and may be an axis having any angle. The information about the position of the rivet driving tool 21 displayed on the notification screen G1 is not limited to the above and may, for example, be information about a positional deviation in the in-plane direction of the surface of the workpiece W to be riveted. The position P1 of the rivet driving tool 21 is calculated in real time based on the position of the workpiece W, which has been detected in advance, and the detection results of the first position detector 24. The position indicator P2 is a predetermined range within which rivet driving is deemed appropriate; specifically, it is a predetermined angular range (tilt angle range) between the surface of the workpiece W to be riveted and the stroke axis I1 of the rivet driving tool 21. Like the tilt angle, the tilt angle range is defined by a reference axis, for example, a perpendicular axis that intersects with the surface of the workpiece W to be riveted, and is a predetermined angular range between the reference axis and the stroke axis I1. This position indicator P2 is displayed as a circular ring (dotted line) within a predetermined angular range, centered on the stroke axis I1 (a so-called radar chart display), and the angle range can be set arbitrarily.

[0027] The information related to the riveting sound includes sound information P3 of the riveting sound and a predefined sound index P4 that indicates whether the riveting is appropriate. The sound information P3 of the riveting sound is the sound pressure level of the riveting sound at the time of riveting detected by the sound level meter 27 and is derived in real time. The sound index P4 is a predefined range within which the riveting is appropriate, specifically a range of sound pressure levels. This sound index P4 is displayed as an arc-shaped scale bar, and shows both the predetermined range within which the riveting sound is appropriate and the predetermined range within which the riveting sound is inappropriate.

[0028] The second display unit 32, like the first display unit 31, notifies the worker and displays a notification screen G2 that provides the notified information. The second display unit 32 is, for example, a display device such as a display. Note that, like the first display unit 31, the second display unit 32 is not particularly limited and may be a display device such as a wearable display. The second display unit 32 provides information to the worker who uses the contact plate 22.

[0029] 3, the notification screen G2 displayed on the second display unit 32 will be described. The notification screen G2 provides information about the position of the contact plate 22 as information to be provided to the worker using the contact plate 22.

[0030] The information relating to the position of the backing plate 22 includes a position P5 of the backing plate 22 relative to the workpiece W and a predetermined position indicator P6 that indicates when riveting is appropriate. The position P5 of the backing plate 22 is the attitude of the backing plate 22 relative to the workpiece W. Specifically, it is the angle (tilt angle) between the surface of the workpiece W to be riveted and the support axis I2 of the backing plate 22. The tilt angle is, for example, determined based on a reference axis that is perpendicular to the surface of the workpiece W to be riveted, and is the angle between the reference axis and the support axis I2. Note that the reference axis is not limited to a perpendicular axis and may be an axis having any angle. Note that the information relating to the position of the backing plate 22 displayed on the notification screen G2 is not limited to the above and may, for example, be information relating to the positional deviation in the in-plane direction of the surface of the workpiece W to which the backing plate 22 is applied. The position P2 of the backing plate 22 is derived in real time based on the previously detected position of the workpiece W and the detection results of the second position detector 25. The position indicator P6 is a predefined range within which riveting is appropriate, and more specifically, is a predetermined angular range (tilt angle range) formed by the surface of the workpiece W to be riveted and the support axis I2 of the backing plate 22. Similar to the tilt angle range of the riveting tool 21, the tilt angle range is a predetermined angular range formed by the reference axis and the support axis I2, for example, using a perpendicular axis that intersects with the surface of the workpiece W to be riveted as the reference axis. This position indicator P6 is displayed as a circular ring (dotted line) within a predetermined angular range with the support axis I2 at the center (so-called radar chart display), and the angle range can be set arbitrarily.

[0031] The information relating to the position of the backing plate 22 also includes information relating to the relative position. The relative position P7 is the relative angle of the rivet driving tool 21 with respect to the backing plate 22, and more specifically, the angle between the support axis I2 of the backing plate 22 and the stroke axis I1 of the rivet driving tool 21. The relative position P7 is derived in real time based on the detection results of the first position detector 24 and the second position detector 25. The relative position P7 is displayed using symbol images that resemble the workpiece W, the rivet driving tool 21, and the backing plate 22.

[0032] The control device 35 controls each part of the fastener driving assist device 10. The control device 35 is connected to the first position detector 24, the second position detector 25, the sound level meter 27, the first pressure gauge 28, the second pressure gauge 29, the first display unit 31, and the second display unit 32.

[0033] The control device 35 has a control unit 46, a memory unit 47, and a communication unit 48. The control unit 46 includes an integrated circuit such as a CPU (Central Processing Unit). The control unit 46 executes control to provide information to an operator via the display units 31 and 32 based on information input from various instruments. The memory unit 47 is any memory device such as a semiconductor memory device or a magnetic memory device. The memory unit 47 stores various types of information. The information stored in the memory unit 47 includes the detection information shown in FIG. 4. The communication unit 48 is a wireless communication module and acquires the detection results output from the first pressure gauge 28 and the second pressure gauge 29 via wireless communication.

[0034] As shown in FIG. 4 , the detection information includes information detected by the first position detector 24, the second position detector 25, the sound level meter 27, the first pressure gauge 28, and the second pressure gauge 29. Specifically, the detection information includes the tilt angle of the stroke axis I1 of the riveting tool 21. As described above, the tilt angle of the stroke axis I1 is the angle between the reference axis and the stroke axis I1. The tilt angle of the stroke axis I1 includes tilt angles D1 and D2 in two orthogonal directions centered on the reference axis within a plane perpendicular to the reference axis. The detection information also includes a movement amount D3 of the riveting tool 21 in the axial direction of the stroke axis I1. The tilt angles D1 and D2 in the two directions and the movement amount D3 are derived based on the detection results of the first position detector 24. The detection information also includes vibration D4 and pressure D5 of the riveting tool 21. Vibration D4 is the vibration of the rivet driving tool 21 when it is pressed against the workpiece W. Vibration D4 is derived based on the acceleration of the rivet driving tool 21 detected by the first position detector 24. Pressing force D5 is the pressure when the rivet driving tool 21 is pressed against the workpiece W. Pressing force D5 is the pressure detected by the first pressure gauge 28. The detected information also includes the above-mentioned relative position D6 (P7), which includes the relative angle of the rivet driving tool 21 with respect to the backing plate 22.

[0035] The detected information includes the tilt angle of the support axis I2 of the backing plate 22. As described above, the tilt angle of the support axis I2 is the angle between the reference axis and the support axis I2. The tilt angle of the support axis I2 includes tilt angles D7 and D8 in two orthogonal directions centered on the reference axis within a plane perpendicular to the reference axis. The detected information also includes a movement amount D9 of the support axis I2 of the backing plate 22 in the axial direction. The two tilt angles D7 and D8 and the movement amount D9 are derived based on the detection results of the second position detector 25. The detected information also includes a vibration D10 and a pressure D11 of the backing plate 22. The vibration D10 is the vibration of the backing plate 22 when pressed against the workpiece W. The vibration D10 is derived based on the acceleration of the fastener driving tool 21 detected by the second position detector 25. The pressure D11 is the pressure when the backing plate 22 is pressed against the workpiece W. The pressing force D11 is the pressure detected by the second pressure gauge 29. The detected information is the above-mentioned sound information D12 (P3), which includes the sound pressure level of the fastener-driving sound.

[0036] Next, with reference to FIG. 5, a process for assisting the riveting operation by the riveting support device 10 will be described. Before starting the riveting operation, the riveting support device 10 acquires the position of the workpiece W using the first position detector 24 and the second position detector 25. In the riveting support device 10, the control device 35 determines whether the operator is ready to operate the trigger 23 for activating the riveting tool 21 by determining whether the start switch has been turned ON (step S1). If the control device 35 determines that the start switch has been turned ON (step S1: Yes), it then determines whether a predetermined time has elapsed (step S2). In step S2, the control device 35 waits for a predetermined time after the start switch has been turned ON until the riveting operation by the riveting tool 21 is complete. If the control device 35 determines in step S1 that the start switch has not been turned ON (step S1: No), it ends the process without executing the process for assisting the riveting operation.

[0037] If the control device 35 determines in step S2 that the predetermined time has elapsed (step S2: Yes), it sounds an alarm and acquires and starts recording information on the tilt angle, pressure, movement amount, and acceleration of the fastener driving tool 21 and the tilt angle, pressure, movement amount, and acceleration of the backing plate 22 (step S3). The alarm sound in step S3 may be an electronic sound. Alternatively, a warning light such as a lamp may be turned on or flashed instead of an alarm sound. After executing step S3, the control device 35 displays the acquired data on the first display unit 31 and the second display unit 32 (step S4). That is, in step S4, the first display unit 31 displays the information contained in the notification screen G1, and the second display unit 32 displays the information contained in the notification screen G2.

[0038] Furthermore, if the control device 35 determines in step S2 that the predetermined time has elapsed (step S2: Yes), it acquires and starts recording the riveting sound (step S5). After executing step S5, the control device 35 displays the acquired riveting sound data on the first display unit 31 (step S6). That is, in step S6, the first display unit 31 displays the sound information included in the notification screen G1.

[0039] After steps S4 and S6 are performed, the control device 35 determines whether the rivet driving tool 21 has retracted a predetermined amount from the amount of movement of the rivet driving tool 21 on the stroke axis I (step S7). In step S7, by determining whether the rivet driving tool 21 has retracted from the object W, it is detected whether the rivet driving operation by the rivet driving tool 21 has finished. If the control device 35 determines in step S7 that the rivet driving tool 21 has retracted from the object W (step S7: Yes), it ends the recording of steps S3 and S5 (step S8). On the other hand, if the control device 35 determines in step S7 that the rivet driving tool 21 has not retracted from the object W (step S7: No), it proceeds again to steps S3 and S5, and repeatedly executes steps S3 to S7 until the rivet driving tool 21 has retracted from the object W.

[0040] After executing step S8, the control device 35 displays the various recorded data on the first display unit 31, the second display unit 32, or another display unit (step S9). The control device 35 then links the various recorded data with the images corresponding to the data and displays the results as evaluations on the first display unit 31, the second display unit 32, or another display unit (step S10). The evaluation of the riveting work is made comprehensively based on the relative positions of the riveting tool 21 and the backing plate 22, the riveting sound, the pressure, etc. After executing step S10, the control device 35 ends the processing related to assisting the riveting work. The evaluation results displayed in step S10 can be used to evaluate the riveting quality itself or as evaluation factors for riveting quality.

[0041] In this embodiment, a motion capture system including markers 41, 43 and cameras 42, 44 is used as the first position detector 24 and second position detector 25 applied to the riveting training device, but this is not particularly limited. When the riveting support device 10 is used in actual work, the first position detector 24 and second position detector 25 may be acceleration sensors such as three-axis gyro sensors.

[0042] In this embodiment, when the start switch is turned ON, recording of various data begins after a predetermined time has elapsed, and the operator operates the trigger 23 to start operation of the riveting tool 21, but this configuration is not particularly limited. For example, after the start switch is turned ON, recording of various data may begin when it is detected that the riveting tool 21 has come within a predetermined range of the workpiece W. In addition, recording of various data may begin when it is detected that the backing plate 22 has come within a predetermined range of the workpiece W. On the other hand, if it is detected that the backing plate 22 is not within a predetermined range of the workpiece W, a warning may be displayed on one of the first display unit 31, the second display unit 32, or another display unit.

[0043] As described above, the fastener driving assist device 10 according to the present embodiment can be understood, for example, as follows.

[0044] The rivet driving support device 10 according to the first aspect comprises a rivet driving tool 21 for driving rivets into an object W, a backing plate 22 that is placed on the opposite side of the rivet driving tool 21 across the object W, a first position detector 24 that detects the position of the rivet driving tool 21, a second position detector 25 that detects the position of the backing plate 22, a sound detector (sound level meter 27) that detects the driving sound when driving a rivet, an alarm unit (display units 31, 32) that notifies the operator who is driving the rivet, and a sound detector (sound level meter 27) that detects the driving sound when driving a rivet. and a control unit 46 that executes processing based on the first position detector 24, the second position detector 25 and the sound detector. The control unit 46 derives a relative position P7 between the riveting tool 21 and the backing plate 22 based on the detection results of the first position detector 24 and the second position detector 25, and notifies the worker in real time of the derived relative position P7 and sound information P3 of the riveting sound based on the detection results of the sound detector.

[0045] With this configuration, the worker can be notified of the relative position P7 and sound information P3 during the riveting operation. This notifies the worker that the riveting tool 21 and the backing plate 22 are in the correct position, and the riveting sound enables the worker to determine the appropriate time to stop riveting. This improves the quality of the riveting operation and provides optimal support for the worker's riveting operation.

[0046] In a second aspect, the alarm unit is a display unit 31, 32, the sound information is set with a predefined sound indicator indicating that the fastener has been driven properly, and the control unit displays the derived relative position P7 on the display unit, together with the detected sound information P3 and sound indicator P4.

[0047] According to this configuration, the relative position P7 can be easily grasped visually, and the quality of the sound information P3 based on the sound index P4 can be determined visually.

[0048] As a third aspect, the first position detector 24 and the second position detector 25 are motion capture systems including markers and cameras.

[0049] According to this configuration, the positions of the riveting tool 21 and the backing plate 22 can be measured with high precision.

[0050] In a fourth aspect, the device further includes a first pressure gauge 28 that detects the pressure of the driving tool 21 pressed against the object W, and a second pressure gauge 29 that detects the pressure of the backing plate 22 pressed against the object W.

[0051] According to this configuration, the pressure of the riveting tool 21 against the object W and the pressure of the backing plate 22 against the object W can be used in evaluating the riveting work.

[0052] As a fifth aspect, the device is provided with a memory unit 47 that stores the detection results of the first position detector 24, the second position detector 25, and the sound detector as detection information, and an output unit (display units 31, 32) that outputs the detection information.

[0053] According to this configuration, the riveting work can be evaluated after the riveting work has been performed. [Explanation of symbols]
