Definitions

  • the invention relates to a production device for components, in particular body parts of motor vehicles, with a magazine having a plurality of storage bins for different component typical component holder, with a processing station that can be equipped with a component holder and at least one robot with a machining tool, and with an intermediate the transfer device for the component holder arranged in the magazine and the processing station, wherein a handling robot is associated with the loading of each component holder with a component to be processed and the unloading of the component to be processed of the transfer device and / or the processing station.

  • the first turntable thus serves not only as a transfer device for the component holder removed from the second-mentioned turntable, but also as a magazine for the component holders already placed on it.
  • the disadvantage of such a production device is above all the high floor space requirement, which increases with the number of different component-typical component holders to be provided in the magazine.
  • a turning station with at least one transport robot is provided at the beginning of a transfer line, via which the body components to be processed are transported, which can be equipped with type-different component holders.
  • the various component holders are stored next to the transfer line on different memory locations arranged side by side. Because of the memory locations arranged side by side in a plane, a footprint and a correspondingly long path of the transfer path are required, depending on the number of storage locations.

It is therefore not necessary to first empty the component holder holder from the acquired, no longer required component holder before a new component holder is received. For this reason, the compartment which already accommodates the new component holder can be equipped with the component to be processed in time overlapping and can also be completed here. After removal of the component holder with the component in the direction of the processing station then the component holder no longer required can be accommodated in the magazine. The processing of the component in the processing station So it is not affected by the change of the component holder.
  • the compartments of the component holder receptacle are adjustable in their mutual height distance and optionally pivotable relative to one another.
  • the processing station has a drum-like with one or more mutually rotationally offset places for each component holder formed around a horizontal axis rotatable rotary unit with which each component holder is alternately adjustable in an upper processing position and a rotationally offset lower loading and unloading ,
  • the machining of the component lying just above can be carried out in a machining-favorable position, while a change of in a lower position of the rotary unit held component holder takes place.

  • Component holder holder with two superposed compartments find use. While in the first alternative embodiment, however, it is possible to equip the new component holder with a component to be processed already in the transfer station which holds the component holder in the correct position, this is not possible in the second alternative embodiment, because here the component holders are supplied overhead. However, this disadvantage is compensated by the lower parking space requirement.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un système de fabrication d'éléments structurels, notamment d'éléments de carrosserie de véhicules automobiles. L'invention vise à pouvoir traiter avec un tel système de fabrication de différents types d'éléments en gagnant du temps et avec une faible surface de mise à disposition. A cet effet, différents supports d'éléments (8, 9, 10) spécifiques des éléments sont reçus dans un magasin à tourelle (1). Au moyen d'un dispositif de transfert (3), ces supports peuvent être prélevés du magasin à tourelle (1) et apportés à un poste d'usinage (2). Les supports d'éléments qui ne sont plus nécessaires sont ramenés par le dispositif de transfert (3) du poste d'usinage (2) au magasin à tourelle (1). Pendant l'usinage au poste d'usinage (2), le dispositif de transfert (3) effectue le changement des supports d'éléments (8, 9, 10) spécifiques des éléments, de sorte que le temps d'adaptation est faible. Du fait du magasin à tourelle (1), la place nécessaire pour la mise à disposition est faible.
