Therefore, it is emphasized and should be appreciated that two or more references to "one embodiment" or "another embodiment" or "some embodiments" in various places throughout this specification are not necessarily all referring to the same embodiment. Furthermore, some features, structures, or characteristics of one or more embodiments of the present application may be combined as appropriate.

It should be noted that in order to simplify the present disclosure and thereby facilitate an understanding of one or more embodiments, various features are sometimes grouped together in a single embodiment, figure, or description thereof for the purpose of streamlining the disclosure herein. This method of disclosure, however, is not intended to require more features than are expressly recited in the claims. Indeed, embodiments may have fewer than all of the features of a single embodiment disclosed below.

Referring to fig. 1 to 2, fig. 1 illustrates a perspective view of a split type wire harness operating console 100 (hereinafter, referred to as an operating console 100) according to an embodiment of the present invention, and fig. 2 illustrates a side view of the split type wire harness operating console 100 of fig. 1. The console 100 may be used to perform harness assembly during harness manufacturing. As shown in fig. 1, the operation table 100 may include a wiring board 101, a staple board 102, a translation mechanism 103, a lifting mechanism 104, a guide 105, a frame 106, a guard plate 107, anchors 108, and an electrical control system (not shown). In which wiring board 101 and staple plate 102 are separated from each other, unlike the wiring board and staple plate provided as one body in the existing harness operating table. The wiring board 101 and the staple board 102, which are separated from each other, may allow the wiring operation area and the plugging operation area to be separated so as to simultaneously perform the wiring operation and the plugging operation, thereby improving the wire harness assembling efficiency.

As shown in fig. 1 and 2, the operation table 100 can be divided into two major parts, a wiring board 101 on the upper layer and a staple board 102 on the lower layer, according to the operation area, wherein the wiring board 101 and the staple board 102 are located on the horizontal plane, but on different horizontal planes. For the sake of clarity, a three-dimensional cartesian coordinate system is shown in fig. 1, wherein the above-mentioned horizontal planes are XY planes, different horizontal planes having different values in the Z coordinate direction.

As shown in fig. 1, the wiring board 101 is located on the outer side of the console 100 (i.e., the side close to the cover plate 107 of the console 100), and the staple plate 102 is located on the inner side of the console 100 (i.e., the side away from the cover plate 107 of the console 100). The translation mechanism 103 may translate the wiring board 101 from the outside to the inside of the operation table 100 or translate the wiring board 101 from the inside to the outside of the operation table 100 in the Y-coordinate direction along the guide 105. The lift mechanism 104 may move the staple plate 102 up or down in the Z-coordinate direction. The operation table 100 may further include a sensor (not shown) to sense whether the wiring board 101 and the chuck plate 102 are in a predetermined aligned position with each other. In one embodiment, when wiring board 101 and staple plate 102 are in a predetermined alignment position with each other, wiring board 101 may be located directly above staple plate 102, i.e., wiring board 101 and staple plate 102 completely overlap each other in the vertical direction. In another embodiment, when the wiring board 101 and the clip plate 102 are in a predetermined alignment position with each other, the wiring board 101 and the clip plate 102 may at least partially overlap with each other in the vertical direction. In some embodiments, the sensor may sense the position of wiring board 101 and/or staple plate 102, and by using the position of wiring board 101 and the position of staple plate 102, it may be determined whether wiring board 101 and staple plate 102 are in a predetermined alignment position with each other. In other embodiments, the sensor may sense a relative distance between wiring board 101 and staple plate 102, and by using the relative distance, it may be determined whether wiring board 101 and staple plate 102 are in a predetermined aligned position with each other.

Referring to fig. 1 and 2, operation table 100 is being in an initial state in which wiring board 101 and staple plate 102 are at different levels, and wiring board 101 is located at an upper layer with respect to staple plate 102. In other embodiments, the initial state of wiring board 101 and staple plate 102 may be such that wiring board 101 and staple plate 102 are on the same horizontal plane, or even such that wiring board 101 is located at a lower level with respect to staple plate 102. In other embodiments, the lifting mechanism 104 may lift or lower the wiring board 101, and the translation mechanism 103 may translate the staple plate 102 along the guide 105 from the inner side to the outer side of the console 100 or from the outer side to the inner side of the console 100. In other embodiments, the lifting mechanism 104 may raise or lower both the wiring board 101 and the staple plate 102, and the translation mechanism 103 may translate both the wiring board 101 and the staple plate 102 from the inner side to the outer side of the operation table 100 along the guide 105, or translate both the wiring board 101 and the staple plate 102 from the outer side to the inner side of the operation table 100 along the guide 105. The movement of the translation mechanism 103 is not limited to the movement in the Y coordinate direction described above (e.g., movement from the outer side of the operation table 100 to the inner side, and movement from the inner side of the operation table 100 to the outer side), and in other embodiments, the movement of the translation mechanism 103 may include any movement in the XY plane in a direction perpendicular to the movement direction of the lift mechanism 104 (i.e., the Z coordinate direction). Likewise, guide device 105 may not be limited to a guide device for defining a path in which wiring board 101 and/or staple plate 102 translate between the inside and outside of operation table 100, and in other embodiments, guide device 105 may also include a guide device for defining other paths in which wiring board 101 and/or staple plate 102 translate in the XY plane.

As shown in fig. 1 and 2, the clip board 102 is provided with a clip holder 210 for accommodating a clip, for example, into which a clip head of the clip is inserted. A plurality of openings 109 are opened in the wiring board 101. The position of the opening 109 corresponds to the mounting position of the staple jig 210 on the staple plate 102, as shown in detail in fig. 3, and fig. 3 shows a top view of the split type wire harness operating console 100 of fig. 1. In the embodiment shown in fig. 3, the number of the openings 109 in the wiring board 101 is the same as the number of the clip jigs 210 in the clip plate 102. However, in other embodiments, the number of openings 109 in wiring board 101 may be different from the number of staple jigs 210 on staple plate 102, as long as all of staple jigs 210 may protrude out of the plane of wiring board 101 through corresponding openings 109 as staple plate 102 rises when wiring board 101 is translated to a predetermined alignment position directly above or over staple plate 102. When wiring board 101 is located at a predetermined alignment position directly above or over tack plate 102, the X-coordinate and the Y-coordinate of staple jig 210 on tack plate 102 are the same as the X-coordinate and the Y-coordinate of corresponding opening 109 on wiring board 101, respectively, and the Z-coordinate of staple jig 210 is smaller than the Z-coordinate of corresponding opening 109, which allows staple jig 210 to pass through corresponding opening 109 and protrude out of the board surface of wiring board 101 as tack plate 102 is raised or wiring board 101 is lowered.

Referring to fig. 4, fig. 4 shows a front view of the split harness operator station 100 of fig. 1. As shown in fig. 4, a fork 110 for supporting a cable or a wire harness may also be included on the wiring board 101.

The following describes a wire harness assembling operation flow which can be realized based on the split type wire harness operating console 100 described above with reference to fig. 5. It should be understood that the wire harness assembling operation flow itself does not constitute a protection main body of the utility model, but the description of the wire harness assembling operation flow will be useful for understanding about the structure and function of the split type wire harness operating table 100.

At step 502, a harness layout operation is performed on wiring board 101 and a tuck-in operation is performed on card nail plate 102. In some embodiments, when the operation table 100 is in the initial state as shown in fig. 1 to 4, the wiring board 101 of the upper layer is located on the outer side of the operation table 100 for wiring by an operator located near the outer side of the operation table 100; the lower clip plate 102 is located inside the operation table 100, the clip jig 210 is provided on the clip plate 102, and the space directly above the clip plate 102 is not occupied by the wiring board 101. At this time, the worker may perform a harness layout operation on the wiring board 101 outside the operation table 100, for example, a cable is put into the fork 110 on the wiring board 101 according to a predetermined harness layout, and at the same time, a robot arm (not shown) may perform a jam nail operation on the clip plate 102 inside the operation table 100, for example, a clip head of a clip is jammed into the clip jig 210 of the clip plate 102 one by one according to a process requirement. In other embodiments, in the initial state, wiring board 101 of console 100 may be located on the same level or at a lower layer with respect to staple plate 102 as long as there is an operating space above wiring board 101 where cables can be arranged and above staple plate 102 where staples can be plugged.

At step 504, the driving mechanism drives the wiring board 101 and/or the staple plate 102 so that the wiring board 101 and the staple plate 102 are in a predetermined alignment position with each other. In some embodiments, after the wiring harness is completed and the desired staples are fully occluded, translation mechanism 103 may translate wiring board 101 inboard and/or translate staple plate 102 outboard such that wiring board 101 is positioned in a predetermined alignment directly above or over staple plate 102.

At step 506, the driving mechanism further drives the wiring board 101 and/or the staple plate 102 to reduce the vertical distance between the wiring board 101 and the staple plate 102. In some embodiments, when the sensor detects that wiring board 101 is located at a predetermined alignment position directly above or over staple plate 102, translation mechanism 103 may be deactivated, and then lift mechanism 104 may drive wiring board 101 down and/or drive staple plate 102 up to reduce the vertical distance between wiring board 101 and staple plate 102, so that staple jig 210 with staples jammed on staple plate 102 protrudes out of the plane of wiring board 101 through corresponding openings 109 of wiring board 101. At this time, the operation table 100 is in a seated state.

At step 508, a stapling operation is performed. In some embodiments, after the station 100 is in the in-position state, the robot near the inside of the station 100 may start the stapling operation according to the set process path until the stapling operation for all the staples is completed. Wherein the stapling operation includes tightening the staple tie with the wire bundle and shearing off excess tie.

At step 510, the driving mechanism drives the wiring board 101 and/or the staple plate 102 to increase the vertical distance between the wiring board 101 and the staple plate 102. In some embodiments, the lifting mechanism 104 may begin to drive the wiring board 101 up and/or the staple plate 102 down in response to the stapling operation having been completed to increase the vertical distance between the wiring board 101 and the staple plate 102, thereby causing the staple jig 210 on the staple plate 102 to exit the corresponding aperture 109 of the wiring board 101.

At step 512, the driving mechanism further drives the wiring board 101 and/or the staple plate 102 to deviate the relative positions of the wiring board 101 and the staple plate 102 from the predetermined alignment position. In some embodiments, after the staple jig on the staple plate 102 exits the corresponding opening 109 of the wiring board 101 (i.e., the staple jig 210 on the staple plate 102 moves to the other side of the wiring board 101 opposite the face with the prongs 110), the translation mechanism 103 can drive the wiring board 101 to translate outward and/or drive the staple plate 102 to translate inward such that the wiring board 101 is offset from a predetermined alignment position directly above or over the staple plate 102. The worker may then remove the staple-assembled harness. The next wire harness or group of wire harnesses may then be assembled.

The above-described wire harness assembling operation flow 500 is performed by both the translation mechanism 103 and the lifting mechanism 104. However, in other embodiments, the wiring board 101 and the staple board 102 of the console 100 may be configured to: wiring board 101 and staple board 102 are both at the level shown in fig. 1, but wiring board 101 is initially arranged to be located at a predetermined alignment position directly above or over staple board 102. In this case, the operation table 100 may not include the translation mechanism 103, or in the wire harness assembly operation flow, the operations (such as step 504, step 512) performed by the translation mechanism 103 described above may be omitted, and the vertical distance between the wiring board 101 and the staple plate 102 is changed (including shortened or increased) only by the raising and lowering of the lift mechanism 104, so that the staple jig 210 on the staple plate 102 passes through the corresponding opening 109 of the wiring board 101, protrudes out of the plate surface of the wiring board 101, or the staple jig 210 on the staple plate 102 exits the corresponding opening 109 of the wiring board 101.

In other embodiments, the wiring board 101 and the staple board 102 of the console 100 may be configured to: the wiring board 101 and the paddle plate 102 are not on the XY plane as shown in fig. 1, but are at a predetermined angle to the XY plane, and the wiring board 101 and the paddle plate 102 are substantially parallel to each other. The predetermined angle may be any angle in the range of 0-90 degrees. Preferably, the predetermined angle may be any angle within a range of 30 degrees to 75 degrees, so that it is possible to facilitate the corresponding operation on the wiring board 101 or the clip board 102 by an operator. In the case where the wiring board 101 and the staple board 102 are at a predetermined angle to the horizontal plane, the operation table 100 may include a translation mechanism 103 and optionally a lifting mechanism 104. Translation mechanism 103 may translate at least one of wiring board 101 and paddle 102 in the XY plane to change (including shorten or increase) the vertical distance between wiring board 101 and paddle 102. Optional lifting mechanism 104 may be used to lift at least one of wiring board 101 and staple plate 102 before translation mechanism 103 is activated so that wiring board 101 and staple plate 102 are in a predetermined alignment position in the horizontal direction, or optional lifting mechanism 104 may be used to deviate the relative position of wiring board 101 and staple plate 102 from the predetermined alignment position after the harness on wiring board 101 has been stapled. In the case where wiring board 101 and staple board 102 are initially arranged in this predetermined aligned position with each other, elevating mechanism 104 may be omitted. When wiring board 101 and staple plate 102 are in the predetermined alignment position with each other, at least one of wiring board 101 and staple plate 102 can be translated by translation mechanism 103 so that staple jig 210 on staple plate 102 protrudes out of the face of wiring board 101 through corresponding opening 109 of wiring board 101. In other words, when the wiring board 101 and the staple plate 102 are in the predetermined alignment position with each other, the Z-coordinate of the staple jig 210 on the staple plate 102 is equal to the Z-coordinate of the corresponding opening 109 on the wiring board 101, and there is also at least one of the following cases: the X-coordinate of the staple jig 210 is different from the X-coordinate of the corresponding hole 109, and the Y-coordinate of the staple jig 210 is different from the Y-coordinate of the corresponding hole 109.

Although not shown, it is understood that the split harness console 100 may further include a control device, such as a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC). The control device may be communicatively coupled with translation mechanism 103, lift mechanism 104, and the sensor to control translation of translation mechanism 103, to control lift mechanism 104 to ascend or descend, and to receive from the sensor a signal indicating whether wiring board 101 and staple board 102 are in a predetermined aligned position with respect to each other. In addition, the control device may be communicatively coupled to the manipulator to control the manipulator to perform operations associated with the staple during assembly of the wiring harness.

As an example, the operations performed by the robot near the inside of the console 100 may include at least one of: and (5) taking the staple bolt, plugging the staple bolt and beating the staple bolt. The particular method by which the robot performs these operations is not limiting of the present embodiment. In other embodiments, the above operations performed by the robot may also be partially or wholly performed by an operator located near the inside of the operation table 100.

The operators who perform various types of operations (e.g., wiring, stapling, plugging, stapling, etc.) around the above-described operation table 100 may include one or more, and when a plurality of operators work around the operation table 100, they may be located on the same side or opposite sides of the operation table.

The technique represented by the split type wire harness operating console 100 can realize the flexibility of the system and is beneficial to engineering change. Meanwhile, the expandability is high, and for different wire harnesses, only the fork 110 and the staple jig 210 need to be replaced. When the mechanical arm is combined to perform the assembly work of the staple and the wire harness, an operator only needs to go up and down, the efficiency is greatly improved, and the labor intensity of the operator is reduced.

Having thus described the basic concept, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the foregoing disclosure is by way of example only, and is not intended to limit the present application. Various modifications, improvements and adaptations to the present application may occur to those skilled in the art, although not explicitly described herein. Such modifications, improvements and adaptations are proposed in the present application and thus fall within the spirit and scope of the embodiments of the present application.
