Specifically, please refer to Figure 1. The present invention proposes a product assembly equipment 100, which has a plurality of stations distributed at intervals, and the plurality of stations include a loading station, an unloading station, at least two attaching stations, at least two inspection stations and an unloading station. The two inspection stations are arranged one by one on the side of the two attaching stations close to the unloading station. The product assembly equipment 100 includes a conveying device 1, a loading device 2, an unloading device 3, an attaching device 4, an inspection device 5 and a first flipping device 6. The conveying device 1 is used to convey the circulating tooling through the loading station, the unloading station, the two attaching stations, the two inspection stations and the unloading station. The loading device 2 is used to transfer the product to be processed to the loading station. on the circulation tooling; the unloading device 3 is used to take the processed product transported to the unloading station from the circulation tooling; the attaching device 4 includes at least two attaching units, the two attaching units are spaced between the loading device 2 and the unloading device 3, and are arranged corresponding to the two attaching stations, and the two attaching units are used to attach the attachments to different parts of the product surface; the inspection device 5 includes at least two inspection units 51, the two inspection units 51 are arranged corresponding to the two inspection stations, and are used to inspect the status of the product after passing through each of the attaching units; the first flipping device 6 is arranged between the two attaching stations, and is used to flip the product after the product passes through one of the attaching stations to transport it to the other attaching station.

The technical solution of the present invention involves loading, attaching, checking, and unloading. During the product processing, the conveying device 1 drives the product to flow between various workstations. The product first maintains a state and passes through one of the attaching units, so that the attachment is attached to its surface, and then it is flipped by the first flipping device 6 to change its posture. The product is maintained in the changed state and attached by another attaching unit, so that the corresponding type and number of attachments are attached to different positions of the product. The product processing process is: automatic loading, first attachment, first inspection, posture flipping, second attachment, second inspection, automatic unloading. The inspection device 5 performs inspection after the attachment is attached to each side of the product, so as to confirm the product status immediately and avoid defective products from flowing to subsequent workstations. The whole process has a high degree of automation, which can ensure good processing accuracy, improve the yield of the product, and then ensure product quality, reduce manpower operations, reduce labor costs, improve production efficiency, and meet high-capacity processing requirements.

The product has a front side and a back side that are arranged opposite to each other. The first turning device 6 makes the front side of the product face upward or the back side of the product face upward.

It should be understood that the two attachment units can be used to attach the same type of attachments, and the two attachment units are divided to correspond to the front and back of the product. In this embodiment, the two attachment units include a first attachment unit 41 and a second attachment unit 42, and the first attachment unit 41 and the second attachment unit 42 correspond to the two types of attachments to be attached. That is, the two attachment units can be used to attach different types of attachments, and the division of the two attachment units is not only to adapt to different surfaces of the product, but also to adapt to different materials at the same time.

It should be noted that the different types here can refer to the difference in the materials themselves, such as one is foam and the other is film. It can also refer to the different specifications of the materials, such as two foams of different sizes.

Furthermore, the first attaching unit 41 and/or the second attaching unit 42 are provided in plurality. According to the actual design requirements, it is reasonably provided that the attachments attached by the plurality of the first attaching units 41 can be the same or different, the products attached by the plurality of the second attaching units 42 can be the same or different, and according to the number of different types of attachments, each attaching unit can be designed to attach a single attachment, or each attaching unit can be designed to attach multiple attachments. In one implementation, one of the attaching units is used to attach two types of attachments at the same time.

For example, in one embodiment, two different types of attachments need to be attached to the front of the product. In this case, one first attaching unit 41 can be provided to attach the two attachments at the same time to achieve processing, or two first attaching units 41 can be provided to attach the two attachments respectively to achieve processing. When the number of attachments of the two attachments is odd, two first attaching units 41 can be provided, one of which only attaches one attachment, and the other attaches two attachments, so as to facilitate the adaptation of the added demand of even-numbered products.

The present invention does not limit the structural form of the conveying device 1, which can be a conveyor belt, a robotic arm or a multi-axis transport mechanism, etc., as long as it can drive the circulation tooling to turn over. In this embodiment, considering the different postures of the products at the two attachment stations, in order to adapt to the placement of the circulation device, the conveying device 1 includes two conveying units arranged at intervals, wherein the conveying path of one of the conveying units passes through the loading station, one of the attachment stations, and one of the inspection stations, and the conveying path of the other conveying unit passes through the other attachment station, the other inspection station and the unloading station; the first flipping device 6 is arranged between the two conveying units, for picking up the product conveyed by one of the conveying units, and flipping it and placing it on the circulation tooling conveyed by the other conveying unit. It should be noted that a plurality of circulation tools are provided on both of the two conveying units. Initially, since one of the conveying units corresponds to the loading station, the circulation tools it conveys to the attachment station are all fully loaded, and the waiting circulation tools on the other conveying unit are empty. One of the conveying units drives the product through the first attachment and the first inspection, and then the product is picked up by the first flipping device 6 and flipped 180°, and the flipped product is placed on the control circulation tool on the other conveying unit, so that the corresponding conveying unit drives the product after the posture change to be transported to another attachment station for the second attachment and inspection. The previous conveying unit will return the circulation tool that is vacant due to the product being picked up by the first flipping device 6 to the loading station for recycling of the circulation tool. Similarly, the circulation tool that becomes vacant after being picked up by the unloading device 3 can be sent back to a position close to the first flipping device 6 by another conveying unit, thereby realizing the recycling of the circulation tool.

Specifically, each of the attaching units includes a first base body 411, a feeder 412, and a first picking portion 413. The feeder 412 is disposed on the first base body 411. The feeder 412 is used to peel off multiple attachments on the roll. The first picking portion 413 can be movably installed on the first base body 411 along the horizontal direction and/or the vertical direction. The first picking portion 413 is used to pick up the attachments peeled off by the feeder 412 and attach the attachments to the corresponding position of the product surface at the attaching station. The feeder 412 is an integrated feeding and stripping machine, which can be purchased or customized. The feeder 412 has a coiler, a stripper and a non-stick material storage platform. The coiler has a coil with attachments attached. The stripper is used to peel off one or more attachments on the coil to place them on the material storage platform. Although the attachments have adhesive strips, due to the non-stick property of the material storage platform, they will not stick to the material storage platform, but can be taken away by the first picking part 413, so that the peeled attachments are attached to the product surface.

It should be noted that the first picking part 413 can realize the picking function through clamping, adsorption and other structural forms, such as a suction nozzle, a vacuum suction cup and the like. The first picking part 413 can realize its activity through a multi-axis driving structure, and the present invention does not limit this.

It should be understood that when each attachment unit corresponds to a different type of attachment, the structure or size of the corresponding first picking portion 413 may be different. For example, the second picking portions 514 of the two attachment units respectively use suction nozzles of different diameters to adapt to attachments of different sizes.

In order to ensure the attachment accuracy, the attaching device 4 also includes a first visual detection device 43, which is arranged on the first base body 411 and is used to detect the position of the attachment relative to the first picking part 413. The first visual detection device 43 mainly plays a correction role. It can detect whether the position of the attachment picked up by the first picking part 413 is appropriate. When the attachment is picked up offset, the position information of the attachment can be transmitted to the control center, and the control center will readjust the moving path of the first picking part 413 according to the current matching state of the attachment and the first picking part 413, so as to compensate for the position offset of the attachment so that it can still correspond to the center of the attachment point on the product surface.

In order to facilitate the picking and attaching positioning of the first picking part 413, in some embodiments, the attaching device 4 further includes a second visual detection device 44, which is disposed on the first picking part 413 and is used to detect the positions of the attachment and the product to coordinate with the positioning of the first picking part 413. The second visual detection device 44 can move synchronously with the first picking part 413, so as to correspondingly photograph and confirm the position of the attachment and the product, thereby improving the accuracy of picking and attaching.

In this embodiment, a first visual detection device 43 and a second visual detection device 44 are designed at the same time. When the first picking parts 413 are provided in plurality, the second visual detection devices 44 are provided in plurality accordingly. However, when the shooting range of the first visual detection device 43 is large enough, only one may be provided, and two first picking parts 413 can also be inspected when passing through the first visual detection device 43 at the same time.

In order to improve production efficiency, the product assembly equipment 100 is a dual-line production. Correspondingly, two products are placed on the circulation tooling, and multiple feeders 412 are provided; each of the attachment units includes two first picking parts 413 arranged at intervals, and each of the first picking parts 413 corresponds to one feeder 412, and the two first picking parts 413 work synchronously to attach the two products respectively.

Furthermore, the employee or AGV puts the tray filled with materials into the silo from the loading port, and the loading device 2 can pick up the product through the material suction nozzle and place it on the circulation tooling. The loading device 2 can also cooperate with a robot or a clamping tooling to pick up the product, and the present invention does not limit this.

The unloading device 3 can be set to a structural form similar to the loading device 2, and the material is picked up by a material picking nozzle. However, considering that the product is flipped in the attachment process, and the continued assembly of the subsequent process requires the product to be carried out with the front side facing up, in order to avoid adding manual links, in some embodiments, please refer to Figure 4, the unloading device 3 includes a second base body 31, a silo mechanism 32, a second flipping device 33 and a discharge part 34, the silo mechanism 32 is arranged on the second base body 31, and is used to store the material tray; the second flipping device 33 is arranged on the second base body 31, including a picking part that moves in the up-and-down direction and rotates along an axis extending in the horizontal direction, the picking part is used to pick up the product conveyed to the unloading station and drive it to flip horizontally; the discharge part 34 can be movably installed on the second base body 31 in the horizontal direction and/or the up-and-down direction, the discharge part 34 is used to pick up the product flipped on the picking part and transfer it to the material tray in the silo mechanism 32. When the product flows to the unloading station, it is first picked up by the picking part. The picking part can be a structure with a mechanical arm and a suction cup, or other structures that can achieve movement and picking. It should be noted that when the picking part is picking up the product, it should avoid the attachments that have been attached to the surface of the product. The picking part first moves downward to pick up the product, and then moves upward to return to the initial position. It can rotate and flip during the upward movement, or it can flip after returning to the initial position. It can be reasonably set according to the actual production rhythm. After the picking part is flipped, it remains in a fixed position, and then the unloading part 34 picks up the flipped product. At the same time, the picking part releases the product. The product is only driven by the unloading part 34, and is driven into the silo mechanism 32 to complete the automatic flipping and unloading action.

It should be noted that the structure of the second turning device 33 may be consistent with or different from the structure of the first turning device 6 , and the present invention does not limit this.

It should be noted that the silo mechanism 32 is configured as an automated silo, and a corresponding movable part 512 is provided in the silo structure to drive the material tray to move, so as to match the movable stroke of the unloading part 34. After the product is placed in the material tray, the silo mechanism 32 can automatically collect the material and stack the tray.

For example, the silo mechanism 32 includes a mounting frame, a silo assembly, a lifting mechanism and a transfer mechanism. The mounting frame has an output station and a material picking station. The silo assembly defines a first stacking channel extending up and down and having adjustable longitudinal and/or lateral dimensions. The upper end of the first stacking channel is arranged corresponding to the output station. The lifting mechanism has a lifting portion 71 that is movable up and down and is arranged in the first stacking channel. The lifting portion 71 is used to lift the stacked material tray with materials to the output station. The transfer mechanism has a first picking portion 413 and a transfer portion. The transfer portion can be mounted on the mounting frame in a transversely movable manner and can pass through the output station and the material picking station during its movement. The first picking portion 413 is located at the output station and is used to pick up the material tray in the first stacking channel and place it on the transfer portion. By adjusting the first stacking channel size, so that its size can adapt to trays of different sizes. After the adjustment is completed, the trays filled with materials are stacked on the lifting part 71, and moved upward under its drive, so as to reach the output stations in turn. The first picking part 413 picks up the tray at the top. At this time, the transfer part is on the side of the first stacking channel, so as to avoid interference with the action of the first picking part 413. After completing the picking, the transfer part moves to correspond to the first picking part 413 so as to be able to undertake the current tray, and drives the tray to move horizontally to the material taking station for external equipment to take away the material, thereby completing the loading action of a single tray. This structure can adapt to trays of different sizes, thereby improving the versatility of the silo, and can be matched with an automatic guided vehicle, saving labor costs, and realizing unmanned loading.

In one embodiment, each of the inspection units can be set as a CCD detector only, and the matching position of the attachment and the product can be determined by simultaneous photography and detection. A robotic arm electrically connected thereto can also be set to remove defective products to prevent defective products from flowing to the next workstation.

In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 3. Multiple products are placed on each of the circulation tooling; each of the inspection units 51 includes a mounting table 511, a movable part 512, a third visual inspection device 513 and a second picking part 514. The mounting table 511 is used to place multiple material boxes 5a; the movable part 512 can be movably mounted on the mounting table 511 in the horizontal direction and/or the up and down direction; the third visual inspection device 513 is arranged on the movable part 512, and is used to detect the matching state between the product conveyed to the inspection station and the attachment; the second picking part 514 is arranged on the movable part 512, and is spaced apart from the third visual inspection device 513. The second picking part 514 is used to take out qualified products and/or defective products in the circulation tooling and place them in the corresponding material box 5a, or pick up qualified products from the material box 5a and put them back into the circulation tooling. The third visual inspection device 513 can simultaneously perform two functions according to actual working conditions: detecting the matching status of the product and the attachment, and guiding the positioning of the second picking part 514. Combining the two functions of inspection and product completion in the inspection device 5 can make the entire line smoother.

Based on the above embodiment, the process is explained by taking placing two products on the circulation tooling as an example. The specific process is as follows: the circulation tooling A moves two products that have been attached once or twice to the corresponding inspection station, and the third visual inspection device 513 performs an attachment status inspection on the products.

Case 1: If both products are qualified, they are released and conveyor 1 continues to circulate with the circulation tooling;

The second situation: if there are two defective products, the movable part 512 is controlled to move to drive the second picking part 514 to pick up the two defective products and place them in the corresponding material box 5a. At this time, the third visual inspection device 513 plays the role of picking and placing positioning at the same time.

The third situation: if one of them is a qualified product and the other is a defective product, the second picking unit 514 is controlled to take out the qualified product and the defective product and place them in different material boxes 5a, and the circulation tooling A is left empty and removed. Then the circulation tooling B is transferred over. When one of the products on the circulation tooling B is a defective product, only the second picking unit 514 is controlled to take out the defective product and place it in the material box 5a, and the qualified product picked up previously is taken out from the previous material box 5a and placed in the circulation tooling to replenish the qualified products, and the conveying device 1 continues to circulate with the circulation tooling.

In addition, considering that the product needs to be kept in a stable and motionless state during processing at each workstation, in some embodiments, the product assembly equipment 100 also includes a plurality of tooling positioning devices 7 corresponding to the plurality of workstations, and each of the tooling positioning devices 7 includes a stopper and a lifting portion 71. The stopper is movably installed on the corresponding workstation to movably block the corresponding circulation tooling so that it stays on the corresponding workstation, or movably avoid the corresponding circulation tooling so that it is moved to other workstations; the lifting portion 71 can move in the up and down directions to lift the circulation tooling upward to separate it from the conveying device 1 when the stopper movably blocks the corresponding circulation tooling. The stop portion can be movable up and down for stopping and avoiding, or can be movable in the horizontal direction for stopping and avoiding. The lifting portion 71 can realize the lifting function through structural forms such as cylinders and screws. It should be understood that when the circulation tooling flows to the designated position of each workstation, the stop portion is first moved to block the circulation tooling from continuing to flow, and then the lifting portion 71 is moved to lift the circulation tooling upward. When the circulation tooling is waiting for loading, waiting for attachment, waiting for testing, and waiting for unloading, the circulation tooling is in a state of being lifted by the lifting portion 71, thereby ensuring the processing accuracy of each link.

The following is an explanation of the corresponding structure and principle using the foam as an example of the attachment.

It is necessary to attach foam to both the front and back sides of the product. Two types of foam are attached to the front side of the product, with 5 foam A and 1 foam B. One type of foam is attached to the back side of the product, with 2 foam C. Foam A, B, and C are attachments with different specifications but the same material. The product processing process is as follows:

The employee or AGV puts the tray filled with products into the silo from the loading port. The loading device 2 takes out two products at the same time or in sequence and puts them into the circulation tooling at the loading station. The two products to be processed are transported to the next station by the conveying device 1 along with the circulation tooling flow.

To the first attaching station, the first attaching station is provided with three first attaching units 41 arranged along the conveying direction of the conveying device 1. The circulation tooling passes through the first first attaching unit 41, and two foams A are attached to the front of each product. Then, it continues to pass through the second first attaching unit 41, and two foams A are attached to the front of each product. Then, it continues to pass through the third first attaching unit 41, and one foam A and one foam B are attached to the front of each product. So far, five foams A and one foam B are attached to the front of each product, and the front attachment is completed.

The circulation tooling is transferred to the first inspection station to check the attachment status of the front of the product, and defective products are eliminated, and qualified products flow into the next station;

The product is turned 180° by the first turning device 6 so that the back of the product faces upwards;

At the second attaching station, a second attaching unit 42 attaches two foams C on the reverse side of each product to complete the reverse side attaching;

The circulation tooling is transferred to the second inspection station to check the attachment status of the reverse side of the product, defective products are eliminated, and qualified products flow into the next station;

When it arrives at the unloading station, the product is first turned back to a face-up state by the second turning device 33, and then picked up by the second picking part 514 and placed in the tray of the hopper mechanism 32.
