Abstract

The feed system for supports for car bodies comprises a motorized carriage mounted on rails and which has a telescopic arm mounted on it for picking up and releasing supports which has two heads . A detector locates a support to be picked up and upper and lower jaws on the head hold it. Stops hold subsequent supports back during transfer of the support which has been picked up.

Description

DISPOSITIF DE SUPPORTS INDIVIDUELS POUR CARROSSERIES DE
VEHICULES. DEVICE FOR INDIVIDUAL SUPPORTS FOR BODYWORK
VEHICLES.

La présente invention concerne un dispositif de supports individuels pour carrosseries de véhicules. The present invention relates to a device for individual supports for vehicle bodies.

Ce dispositif s'applique dans les usines de montage de véhicule, étant donné que les supports individuels alimentés et disposés par celui-ci sont chargés de réaliser le support des châssis du véhicule, au moins durant quelques phases de fabrication. This device is applicable in vehicle assembly plants, since the individual supports supplied and disposed by it are responsible for supporting the chassis of the vehicle, at least during a few manufacturing phases.

En accord avec l'invention, ce dispositif comprend un chariot motorisé de déplacement linéal monté sur des guidages parallèle positionnés sur une zone de reprise des supports individuels sur laquelle les supports individuels se trouvent adossés latéralement, et sur une zone de livraison de ces supports individuels. Sur le chariot motorisé est monté, un bras télescopique de déplacement vertical, dont l'extrémité inférieure est porteuse de deux têtes chargée de réaliser l'adhésion individualisée des supports sur les zones de récupération, et son serrage durant le transport jusqu'à la zone d'envoi. In accordance with the invention, this device comprises a motorized linear displacement carriage mounted on parallel guides positioned on a zone for taking up the individual supports on which the individual supports are back-to-back, and on a delivery area for these individual supports. . On the motorized trolley is mounted, a telescopic arm for vertical displacement, the lower end of which carries two heads responsible for achieving individualized adhesion of the supports to the recovery zones, and its tightening during transport to the zone sending.

D'après l'invention chacune des têtes mentionnées comprend - Un détecteur chargé de détecter sur la zone de reprise la présence du support à dispenser - Butées mobiles exerçant une pression sur les zones supérieure et inférieure du support à libérer, en réalisant l'adhésion individualisée de celui-ci depuis la tête,-un coin de rétention actionné par des moyens de déplacement vertical chargés de la verrouiller sur la zone de reprise entre le support à transporter et le support contigu, et la maintenir à une position fixe durant le début du transport du support repris par la tête, en empêchant l'entraînement According to the invention each of the heads mentioned comprises - A detector responsible for detecting on the recovery zone the presence of the support to be dispensed - Movable stops exerting pressure on the upper and lower areas of the support to be released, by achieving adhesion individualized from the head, -a retention corner actuated by vertical displacement means responsible for locking it on the recovery zone between the support to be transported and the adjoining support, and maintaining it in a fixed position during the start transport of the support taken up by the head, preventing entrainment

involontaire de ce support contigu. involuntary of this contiguous support.

En accord avec l'invention, caractérisé car les butées mobiles prévues sur les têtes pour l'adhésion individualisée des supports sont composées d'une butée supérieure associée à un cylindre de déplacement vertical et par une butée inférieure rabattable destiné à agir contre la superficie inférieure du support à récupérer. In accordance with the invention, characterized in that the movable stops provided on the heads for the individualized adhesion of the supports are composed of an upper stop associated with a vertical displacement cylinder and by a lower folding stop intended to act against the lower surface. of the media to be recovered.

De leur côté, les moyens de déplacement du coin sont composés d'un cylindre de déplacement vertical chargé de la verrouiller entre le support à transporter et le support contigu, et par une butée de déplacement horizontal actionnable au moyen d'un cylindre, cette même butée chargée de maintenir le coin de rétention à une position fixe durant le début du transport du support depuis la tête.For their part, the corner displacement means are composed of a vertical displacement cylinder responsible for locking it between the support to be transported and the adjoining support, and by a horizontal displacement stop actuatable by means of a cylinder, this same stop responsible for holding the retention wedge in a fixed position during the start of the transport of the support from the head.

Claims

CLAIMS 1. Device for loading individual supports for vehicle bodies; characterized because it comprises a motorized linear displacement carriage mounted on parallel guides positioned on an area for taking up the individual supports, on which the supports attached laterally are located, and on a zone for sending these individual supports, a telescopic arm of vertical movement mounted on the motorized carriage and two heads mounted parallel on the lower end of the telescopic arm; each of the two heads having: - A detector responsible for detecting on the recovery zone the presence of the support to be released, - Movable stops exerting pressure on the upper and lower areas of the support to be released, achieving individualized adhesion of that -this from the head, -a retaining wedge actuated by vertical displacement means responsible for locking it on the recovery zone between the support to be transported and the adjoining support, and maintaining it in a fixed position during the start of the transport of the support taken up by the head, preventing the involuntary entrainment of this contiguous support.

2. Device according to claim 1, characterized in that the movable stops provided on the heads for the individualized adhesion of the supports are composed of a stop

upper associated with a vertical displacement cylinder and a lower folding stop intended to act against the lower surface of the support to be recovered.

3. Device according to claim 1, characterized because the means of displacement of the corner are composed of a pneumatic cylinder of vertical displacement responsible for the

lock between the support to be transported and the adjoining support, and by a horizontal displacement stop operable by means of a pneumatic cylinder, this same stop responsible for maintaining the retention wedge in a fixed position during the start of the transport of the support from the head.
