Description

  The present invention relates to an interior material sticking jig used when a sheet-like interior material is attached to an interior surface of a vehicle.

  Vehicle interior surfaces (ceiling surfaces, wall surfaces, floor surfaces, etc.) are equipped with interior insulation materials that have a sound insulation function that makes it difficult for rain sound to be transmitted from the outside of the vehicle to the interior of the vehicle, and insulation functions to prevent condensation and improve air conditioning performance. Various sheet-like interior materials, such as interior materials, are attached. Such an interior material is usually attached manually by an operator entering the vehicle or from outside the vehicle using a large facility such as a robot.

  The manual operation in which the worker attaches the interior material to the ceiling surface of the vehicle is performed, for example, through the following procedure. First, an operator grasps an interior material having an adhesive applied on one side with a finger and positions it on the ceiling surface. Next, the worker presses the positioned interior material against the ceiling surface with fingers. Furthermore, the operator presses the entire interior material with a large size by pressing it against the ceiling surface while spreading it with fingers. Such manual work is performed while the operator presses the interior material directly against the ceiling surface with his / her fingers, so the attachment is highly reliable, but the work is troublesome and the worker maintains an upward posture. There is a problem that the burden on the operator is large because the operation is performed as is.

  Therefore, in order to solve such a problem, it is preferable to perform the above operation using a large facility such as a robot disclosed in Patent Document 1 below. In this case, the work can be performed by attaching a mold having a mounting surface for the interior material to the tip of the arm of the robot. That is, the robot arm is controlled so that the formwork with the interior material placed on the placement surface is carried into the vehicle through the opening of the vehicle and then the interior material is pressed against the ceiling surface.

Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 7-76290

However, when the above-mentioned formwork is used as a jig, the burden on the operator can be kept low, but the following problems can occur.
That is, if the robot arm itself is moved to press the interior material against the ceiling surface, the pressing force of the interior material against the ceiling surface is not stable, and the positional displacement of the interior material with respect to the formwork or the positional displacement of the interior material with respect to the ceiling surface Since it is easy to occur, the attachment reliability when attaching an interior material to a ceiling surface is low. Such a problem may occur not only for the interior material for the ceiling surface but also for the work of attaching the interior material to other indoor surfaces such as wall surfaces and floor surfaces.

  The present invention has been made in view of such a problem, and an object of the present invention is to provide an interior material sticking jig that is effective in enhancing the attachment reliability when a sheet-like interior material is attached to the interior surface of a vehicle. To do.

  A preferred embodiment of the above aspect will be described.

  In the "sheet-like interior material" described in the present specification, in addition to a finishing material that is directly attached to the ceiling surface, wall surface, floor surface, etc. of the vehicle, a base material that is attached immediately below the finishing material, etc. Various interior materials are included.

In the above interior material sticking jig (hereinafter, also simply referred to as “jig”), the pressing portion is configured by changing the direction of the magnetic body acting on the movable body provided with the magnetic body and the magnetic body. It is preferable to include a movable body drive unit that drives the movable body so that the movable body can advance and retreat in the thickness direction of the interior material.
According to this jig, since the movable body is driven using the magnetic force acting on the magnetic body in the pressing portion, the pressing force of the interior material by the movable body can be stabilized.

In the above jig, the movable body drive unit is disposed opposite to the movable body, and has a magnet member having a permanent magnet for attraction and a permanent magnet for repulsion arranged in an orthogonal direction perpendicular to the advancing and retreating direction of the movable body, And an actuator that urges the magnet member to reciprocate in the orthogonal direction.
According to this jig, the pressing portion for pressing the interior material against the indoor surface can have a simple and compact structure using a magnet member. Further, since the two permanent magnets constituting the magnet member are semi-permanently maintenance-free, the cost required for the inspection and repair of the pressing portion can be kept low.

In the above jig, the holding unit includes a needle for piercing and holding the interior material, and a needle driving unit that drives the needle so as to advance and retreat in an oblique direction with respect to the extending surface of the interior material. Is preferred.
According to this jig, the holding portion for holding the interior material can have a simple and compact structure using the advance / retreat operation of the needle.

In the above jig, the holding portion includes a first needle and a second needle as the needle, and is configured such that the advance / retreat direction of the first needle is different from the advance / retreat direction of the second needle. Is preferred.
According to this jig, the first needle and the second needle of the holding portion have an effect of preventing the interior material from being pulled out while the interior material is pierced and retained.

The jig includes two frame members that are relatively slidable so that the separation distance is changed in a state of being arranged in parallel to each other, and the holding portion is provided on one of the two frame members, The pressing portion is preferably provided at least on the other frame member of the two frame members not provided with the holding portion.
According to this jig, when the interior material is affixed to the indoor surface, the other frame member is pressed against the interior material by the pressing portion provided on the frame member, and the separation distance is large with respect to the one frame member. Can be slid. At this time, since the interior material is pushed and spread so as to trace the indoor surface by the cooperation of the pressing portion and the frame member, the operator can reproduce an operation close to the operation of directly expanding the interior material with fingers. it can. As a result, it is possible to reduce the occurrence of a non-uniform pasting state, that is, so-called “pasting unevenness” that may occur when the interior material is pasted on the indoor surface.
In addition, this jig is highly versatile because it can cope with the attachment of a plurality of types of interior materials having different dimensions by adjusting the relative sliding amount of the two frame members.

Preferably, the jig includes a frame member driving unit that drives at least one of the two frame members so that the two frame members slide relative to each other.
According to this jig, the frame member sliding operation can be automatically performed by the frame member driving unit.

(Embodiment 1)
Hereinafter, an interior material sticking device (hereinafter also simply referred to as “sticking device”) in a vehicle assembly line according to the present embodiment will be described with reference to the drawings.

  In the drawings referred to in the description of the present specification, unless otherwise specified, the front of the vehicle is indicated by an arrow FR, the right side of the vehicle is indicated by an arrow R, the left side of the vehicle is indicated by an arrow L, and the upper side of the vehicle is indicated by an arrow UP.

Moreover, about the jig | tool for interior material sticking, the 1st direction corresponding to the longitudinal direction of an interior material is shown by the arrow X, the 2nd direction corresponding to the width direction of an interior material is shown by the arrow Y, and the thickness direction of an interior material is shown. The corresponding third direction is indicated by arrow Z.

  As shown in FIG. 1, a sticking device 10 is a device for sticking a sheet-like interior material W to a ceiling surface 2 of a vehicle (also referred to as “vehicle body”) 1 in a vehicle assembly line L. The ceiling surface 2 is one of indoor surfaces such as a wall surface or a floor surface. In this vehicle assembly line L, the vehicle 1 is transported in the transport direction, which is the vehicle front FR, while being supported from below by a pedestal 5 fixed to the transport surface 4 a of the transport cart 4.

  The interior material W is a sheet-like member that has both a sound insulation function that makes it difficult for rain sound and the like to be transmitted from the outside of the vehicle to the vehicle interior, and a heat insulation function for preventing condensation and improving air conditioning performance. In the present embodiment, as an example of the interior material W, a material formed by compressing a soft material such as a quilting material or sponge and forming it into a sheet shape (an interior material referred to as a so-called “roof silencer”) is described. .

  The sticking device 10 includes a main body base 11, a robot 12 provided on the main body base 11, and an interior material sticking jig (hereinafter simply referred to as a “jig”) attached to the distal end portion 13 a of the arm 13 of the robot 12. ) 20 and a control device 60.

  The jig 20 is a jig used when attaching the interior material W to the interior surface 2 of the vehicle 1. The jig 20 is controlled by the control device 60 together with the robot 12. The control device 60 is a known control device including an input / output unit that inputs and outputs control signals, an arithmetic processing unit that performs arithmetic processing, a storage unit that stores input data and arithmetic results, and the like.

The main body base 11 is configured to travel in parallel with the vehicle 1 on a parallel running surface 6 extending along the transport surface 4a of the transport cart 4 during a preset synchronization period. For this reason, the robot 12 also runs in synchronization with the vehicle 1. A storage rack 8 for stacking and temporarily storing a plurality of interior materials W is installed on the installation surface 7 adjacent to the parallel running surface 6.
In FIG. 1, only one storage rack 8 is shown. However, when a plurality of types of interior material W are used, a plurality of storage racks 8 prepared for each type of interior material W are installed. 7 is preferable.

  The robot 12 is configured as an articulated robot having a plurality of axes. Although not particularly shown, each shaft is provided with an electric motor as an actuator controlled by the control device 60. For this reason, the position of the tip 13a of the arm 13 of the robot 12, that is, the position of the jig 20 can be changed by the control device 60 controlling the driving of the electric motor of each axis.

  According to the pasting device 10, first, the desired interior material W is taken out from the storage rack 8 by the control of the robot 12. That is, the robot 12 is controlled so that the jig 20 moves from the first position P1 toward the uppermost interior material W among the plurality of interior materials W stacked on the storage rack 8. Thereafter, the jig 20 is controlled to hold the uppermost interior material W. A specific structure for the jig 20 to hold the interior material W will be described later.

  Next, the robot 12 is controlled so that the jig 20 holding the interior material W is disposed at the second position P2 corresponding to the coating device (not shown). Then, an adhesive is applied to one surface Wa of the interior material W by a coating device. Thereby, the adhesive layer A is formed on the surface Wa of the interior material W.

  Next, the robot 12 is controlled so that the jig 20 holding the interior material W coated with the adhesive is introduced into the vehicle through the opening 3 of the vehicle 1. Then, the robot 12 moves so that the jig 20 moves from the third position P3 where the adhesive layer A of the interior material W faces the ceiling surface 2 to a position in the ceiling surface 2 close to the target target surface 2a. Be controlled. Then, the jig | tool 20 is controlled and the sticking operation | work of the interior material W with respect to the target surface 2a is performed.

  Here, a specific structure of the jig 20 will be described with reference to FIGS.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the jig 20 supports two frame members 21 and 22 that are relatively slidable so that a separation distance is changed in a state of being arranged in parallel to each other, and supports these frame members 21 and 22. And a support part 23 for carrying out the process. The support portion 23 includes a base member 24, two fixed members 25 and 25, and two movable members 26 and 26.

  The base member 24 is provided with two rail portions 24a that are separated in the second direction Y and extend parallel to each other. The rail portion 24a is formed with teeth like a rack gear constituting a so-called “rack and pinion”. The tip portion 13 a of the arm 13 of the robot 12 is attached to the base member 24. The base member 24 is preferably designed to be compact as a whole by minimizing or eliminating portions other than the rail portion 24a to reduce the weight of the jig 20.

  The fixing member 25 is fixed to the upper surface of the base member 24. The two fixing members 25 are arranged on the upper surface of the base member 24 so as to be separated from each other in the second direction Y. On the other hand, the movable member 26 is provided in each of the two rail parts 24a of the base member 24, and is engaged with each rail part 24a so that driving | running | working is possible.

  The frame member 21 is a prismatic member that is fixed so as to span both ends of the two fixing members 25 and 25. Two holding portions 30 and three pressing portions 40 are provided on the upper surface of the frame member 21.

  The frame member 22 is a prismatic member that is fixed to the two movable members 26 and 26 so as to bridge both ends. Three pressing portions 40 are provided on the upper surface of the frame member 22, and the holding portion 30 is not provided.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the movable member 26 includes a circular gear 27 such as a pinion constituting a so-called “rack and pinion”, and teeth on the outer periphery of the circular gear 27 are rail portions 24 a of the base member 24. It is comprised so that it may mesh with the teeth. The movable member 26 is provided with a frame member driving unit 28.

  The frame member driving unit 28 has a function of driving one frame member 22 so that the two frame members 21 and 22 slide relative to each other. In order to realize this function, the frame member drive unit 28 is configured by an electric actuator such as an electric motor capable of rotating the circular gear 27 around a rotation shaft 27a (not shown).

  Therefore, the frame member driving unit 28 drives the circular gear 27 in accordance with a control signal output from the control device 60. Therefore, the movable member 26 can travel on the rail portion 24 a of the support member 24 by rotating the circular gear 27 around the rotation shaft 27 a. At this time, the rotational movement of the circular gear 27 is converted into the linear movement of the movable member 26, and the frame member 22 slides in the first direction X with respect to the frame member 21.

  The frame member driving unit 28 may be a dual-purpose actuator that drives both the two circular gears 27 and 27 simultaneously, or may be a dedicated actuator that drives only one circular gear 27. Good. In addition, an actuator other than an electric actuator can be used as the frame member driving unit 28.

  As shown in FIG. 4, the movable member 26 reciprocates on the rail portion 24 a of the base member 24 when the frame member driving unit 28 switches the rotation direction of the circular gear 27. At this time, the frame member 22 moves integrally with the movable member 26 and can slide between the proximity position Q1 and the separation position Q2 while maintaining a state parallel to the frame member 21.

  Here, the proximity position Q1 of the frame member 22 is a position closest to the frame member 21, that is, a position where the separation distance from the frame member 21 in the first direction X is relatively small. On the other hand, the separation position Q1 of the frame member 22 is a position farthest from the frame member 21, that is, a position where the separation distance from the frame member 21 in the first direction X is relatively large.

  The holding portion 30 shown in FIG. 5 is configured to be able to hold the interior material W from the other surface Wb side when one surface Wa of the interior material W is used as a pasting surface. The holding unit 30 drives a plurality (four in FIG. 5) of needles 33 for piercing and holding the interior material W, and drives the plurality of needles 33 so as to advance and retract in an oblique direction with respect to the extending surface of the interior material W. And a needle driving unit 34 for performing the above operation.

  The plurality of needles 33 are built in a case 31 having a placement surface 31 a on which the interior material W is placed, and project outside the case 31 through needle holes 32 formed in the placement surface 31 a of the case 31. It is configured. According to this configuration, the holding portion 30 for holding the interior material W can have a simple and compact structure using the advance / retreat operation of the needle 33. Each of the plurality of needles 33 includes two first needles 33a and two second needles 33b having different protruding directions.

  As shown in FIG. 6, all of the plurality of needles 33 are driven between the storage position R1 and the protruding position R2 by the needle driving unit 34. At this time, two first needles 33 a among the plurality of needles 33 are configured to move on a virtual direction line L inclined with respect to the placement surface 31 a of the case 31. On the other hand, two second needles 33b among the plurality of needles 33 are inclined with respect to the placement surface 31a of the case 31 and move on a virtual direction line M intersecting the direction line L. It is configured. That is, the holding unit 30 is configured such that the advance / retreat direction of the first needle 33a is different from the advance / retreat direction of the second needle 33b.

  According to this configuration, both the first needle 33a and the second needle 33b have a function as a retainer for restricting the pull-out operation of the interior material W in a state where the interior material W is pierced and held at the projecting position R2. Demonstrate. At this time, the needles 33a and 33b can hold (also can be referred to as “gripping”) so as to grip the interior material W from the surface Wb side.

  The needle drive unit 34 is configured as an actuator that combines an air cylinder (not shown) that can supply air and a spring that elastically biases the needle in the retracting direction. According to this configuration, the plurality of needles 33 protrude from the placement surface 31a of the case 31 due to the pressure at the time of air supply from the air cylinder, while the case 31 is placed by the elastic biasing force of the spring when the air supply is stopped. It operates to retract from the surface 31a.

  The needle driving unit 34 may be a dual-purpose actuator that drives both the two holding units 30 and 30 in FIG. 2 at the same time, or a dedicated actuator that drives only one holding unit 30. There may be. In addition, an actuator other than an actuator combining an air cylinder and a spring can be used as the needle driving unit 34.

  The storage position R <b> 1 is a position where the tip of the needle 33 is retracted below the placement surface 31 a of the case 31. For this reason, in a state where the plurality of needles 33 are set at the storage position R <b> 1, the interior material W placed on the placement surface 31 a of the case 31 is not held by the plurality of needles 33. That is, the holding of the interior material W by the plurality of needles 33 is released.

  On the other hand, the protruding position R2 is a position where the tip of the needle 33 protrudes above the mounting surface 31a of the case 31. For this reason, in the state where the plurality of needles 33 are set at the protruding position R2, the interior material W placed on the placement surface 31a of the case 31 is held by the plurality of needles 33 being pierced.

  For further specific structure of the holding unit 30, for example, “Pneumatic Needle Gripper” disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2011-173727 is referred to.

  The pressing unit 40 shown in FIG. 7 has a function of pressing the interior material W held by the holding unit 30 against the ceiling surface 2 of the vehicle 1 from the surface Wb side. In order to realize this function, the pressing unit 40 drives a cylindrical case 41, a movable body 43 attached to a through hole 41 a provided in the case 41 so as to reciprocate in the vertical direction, and the movable body 43. And a movable body drive unit 45.

  The movable body 43 is configured as a pinton member having two disk-shaped plate portions 43b and 43c at both ends of a cylindrical shaft portion 43a. The shaft portion 43 a is configured such that its shaft diameter is slightly smaller than the hole diameter of the through hole 41 a of the case 41. Each of the two plate portions 43b and 43c is configured such that the diameter thereof exceeds the shaft diameter of the shaft portion 43a. Thereby, the movable body 43 can reciprocate in the third direction Z with a stroke corresponding to the axial length of the shaft portion 43 a with respect to the case 41 in a state where the movable body 43 is attached to the case 41. The movable body 43 includes a permanent magnet 44 as a magnetic body on the lower plate portion 43c. The permanent magnet 44 is disposed on the plate portion 43c so that the lower surface side is an N pole.

  The movable body drive unit 48 drives the movable body 43 so as to advance and retreat in the third direction Z which is the thickness direction of the interior material W by changing the direction of the magnetic field acting on the permanent magnet 44 provided in the movable body 43. Has the function of In order to realize this function, the movable body drive unit 45 includes a magnet member 46 disposed opposite to the movable body 43 and an actuator 49 provided on the magnet member 46.

  The magnet member 46 is accommodated in an engagement groove 42 provided in the case 41 so as to be able to reciprocate in the horizontal direction. The magnet member 46 is a flat plate member having a permanent magnet 47 for attracting and a permanent magnet 48 for repelling arranged in parallel in an orthogonal direction (first direction X) orthogonal to the advancing / retreating direction (third direction Z) of the movable body 43. It is configured as. The attracting permanent magnet 47 has an S pole on the side of the facing surface 46 a facing the N pole of the permanent magnet 44 of the movable body 43 in the magnet member 46. On the other hand, in the repulsive permanent magnet 48, the facing surface 46 a side of the magnet member 46 has an N pole. An actuator 49 is connected to one end of the magnet member 46 in the first direction X.

  The actuator 49 is configured to urge the magnet member 46 to reciprocate in the orthogonal direction (first direction X) in accordance with a control signal output from the control device 60. The actuator 49 is configured as an electric actuator such as an electric cylinder that linearly drives a magnet member 46 (not shown). In addition, an air-driven actuator can be employed.

  As shown in FIG. 8, the pressing portion 40 has a permanent magnet for suction on the magnet member 46 side below the permanent magnet 44 on the movable body 43 side in a state where the magnet member 46 is set to the first position S1 by the actuator 49. A magnet 47 is arranged. At this time, the N pole of the permanent magnet 44 and the S pole of the attracting permanent magnet 47 are attracted to each other by a magnetic force, so that the movable body 43 is urged downward, and the upper plate portion 43b contacts the upper surface of the case 41. It is set to the suction position T1 in contact.

  On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 9, the pressing portion 40 has the magnet member 46 below the permanent magnet 44 on the movable body 43 side in a state where the magnet member 46 is set to the second position S2 by the actuator 49. A side repulsion permanent magnet 48 is arranged. At this time, the N pole of the permanent magnet 44 and the N pole of the repulsive permanent magnet 48 repel each other due to the magnetic force, so that the movable body 43 is biased upward, and the upper plate portion 43 b becomes the upper surface of the case 41. Is set to a repulsion position T2 spaced upward from the center.

  Thus, the movable body 43 reciprocates between the suction position T1 and the repulsion position T2 in conjunction with the reciprocation of the magnet member 46 between the first position S1 and the second position S2. It is configured.

  Next, the operation of attaching the interior material W to the ceiling surface 2 of the vehicle 1 using the jig 20 will be described with reference to FIGS.

  As shown in FIG. 10, the jig 20 is first transported to a storage location (see the storage rack 8 in FIG. 1) under the control of the robot 12, and the interior material W is held by the jig 20. At this time, the jig 20 is arranged in a direction in which the holding portion 30 faces the uppermost interior material W among the plurality of interior materials W that are stacked and stored in the storage location. Then, after the holding portion 30 of the jig 20 is pressed against the surface Wb of the interior material W, the needle driving portion 34 drives the plurality of needles 33 to the protruding position R2.

  Thereby, the some needle 33 can stab and hold the interior material W from the surface Wb side. Since the interior material W consists of a soft material at this time, the needle 33 can pierce this interior material W easily. Further, the jig 20 is effective for easily taking out and transporting the uppermost interior material W one by one when a plurality of interior materials W are stacked and stored.

  As described above, instead of transporting the jig 20 to the storage location of the interior material W, an operator may set the interior material W directly on the jig 20 manually.

  As shown in FIG. 11, the jig 20 has an opening 3 (see FIG. 1) of the vehicle 1 under the control of the robot 12 in a state where the adhesive layer A is formed on the surface Wa of the interior material W being held. ) To be carried into the car. And the jig | tool 20 is the state in which the adhesive layer A of the interior material W is arrange | positioned in the direction which opposes the target surface 2a of the ceiling surfaces 2, and the interior material W is the reference | standard position of the target surface 2a by control of the robot 12 To be aligned.

  Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 12, in the jig 20, the holding unit 30 drives the plurality of needles 33 from the protruding position R <b> 2 to the retracted position R <b> 1 by the needle driving unit 34, while the two frame members 21 and 22. Each pressing part 40 drives the movable body 43 from the suction position T1 to the repulsion position T2 by the movable body drive part 45.

  Thereby, while holding | maintenance of the interior material W by the holding | maintenance part 30 is cancelled | released, the interior material W is pressed against the target surface 2a via the movable body 43 set to the repulsion position T2. At this time, since the frame member 22 is located at a position close to the frame member 21, only the partial surface near the frame member 21 in the surface Wa of the interior material W is merely pasted.

  Therefore, as shown in FIG. 13, the frame member drive unit 28 drives the frame member 22 from the proximity position Q1 to the separation position Q2 while the movable body 43 of the pressing unit 40 is maintained at the repulsion position T2. As a result, the interior material W is expanded so as to trace the target surface 2a by the cooperation of the pressing portion 40 and the frame member 22, and the entire surface Wa is attached to the target surface 2a. At this time, the sliding movement of the frame member 22 can be automatically performed by the frame member driving unit 28.

  The separation position Q2 of the frame member 22 is preferably changed as appropriate according to the dimensions of the interior material W to be used. In this case, the frame member 22 slides with respect to the frame member 21 with a slide amount corresponding to the dimension of the interior material W.

  Next, the effect of Embodiment 1 is demonstrated.

  According to said jig | tool 20, the sheet-like interior material W can be hold | maintained from the surface Wb side with the holding | maintenance part 30. FIG. For this reason, generation | occurrence | production of the position shift of the interior material W with respect to the jig | tool 20 can be prevented. In addition, the interior material W held by the holding unit 30 can be pressed and pasted to the target surface 2 a by the pressing unit 40 in a state where the interior material W is aligned with the reference position of the target surface 2 a of the ceiling surface 2. For this reason, generation | occurrence | production of the position shift of the interior material W with respect to the target surface 2a can be prevented. In this case, an operation close to the operation in which the operator holds the interior material W with fingers and presses the interior material W against the target surface 2a can be reproduced by the jig 20, and the interior material W can be reliably attached to a predetermined position. . Therefore, it is possible to improve the attachment reliability when the sheet-like interior material W is attached to the ceiling surface 2 of the vehicle 1.

  According to the jig 20 described above, the pressing force of the interior material W by the movable body 43 is stabilized because the movable body 43 is driven using the magnetic force acting on the permanent magnet 44 that is a magnetic body in the pressing portion 40. Can do. In addition, the pressing portion 40 can have a simple and compact structure using the magnet member 46. Furthermore, since the two permanent magnets 47 and 48 constituting the magnet member 46 are semi-permanently maintenance-free, the cost required for the inspection and repair of the pressing portion 40 can be kept low.

According to the jig 20, when the interior material W is attached to the ceiling surface 2, the frame member 22 is pressed against the frame member 21 while pressing the interior material by the pressing portion 44 provided on the frame member 22. It can be slid to increase the separation distance. At this time, it is possible to reproduce an operation close to an operation in which the operator directly operates and spreads the interior material W with fingers. As a result, it is possible to reduce the occurrence of a non-uniform pasting state that may occur when the interior material W is pasted on the ceiling surface 2, that is, so-called "sticking unevenness".
Further, the jig 20 is highly versatile because it can cope with the attachment of a plurality of types of interior materials W having different dimensions by adjusting the relative sliding amount of the two frame members 21 and 22. .

  The jig 20 is used by being attached to the robot 12, and the interior material W can be automatically pasted using the three drive units 28, 34, and 45, so that the operator However, the burden on the operator when the interior material W is manually pasted can be eliminated.

  Hereinafter, another embodiment related to the first embodiment will be described with reference to the drawings. In other embodiments, the same elements as those of the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals, and the description of the same elements is omitted.

(Embodiment 2)
As shown in FIG. 14, the jig 120 according to the second embodiment is different from the jig 20 according to the first embodiment in the structure of the support portion 123 that supports the two frame members 21 and 22. That is, the support portion 123 includes one fixed member 125 and one movable member 126, but does not include a member corresponding to the base member 24 of the first embodiment. Therefore, the distal end portion 13a (see FIG. 1) of the arm 13 of the robot 12 is attached to the fixing member 125 of the jig 120.

  The frame member 21 is fixed to the upper surface of the fixed member 125, and the frame member 22 is fixed to the upper surface of the movable member 126. A frame member driving unit 128 for sliding the frame member 22 between the proximity position Q1 and the separation position Q2 is attached to the fixing member 125. The frame member driving unit 128 is configured by an electric actuator such as an electric motor.

  As shown in FIG. 15, the fixed member 125 includes an engaging convex portion 125 a at a portion facing the movable member 126. The engaging convex portion 125a is configured to slidably engage with an engaging groove 126a provided on the movable member 126 so as to extend in the first direction X. Therefore, the movable member 126 can be slid in the first direction X with respect to the fixed member 125 by the frame member driving unit 128.

  Other configurations are the same as those of the first embodiment.

According to the jig 120 described above, since the member corresponding to the base member 24 of the first embodiment is not provided on the support portion 123, the jig 120 itself can be reduced in weight compared to the jig 20 of the first embodiment. Can do. In addition, when the frame member 21 is slid to the proximity position Q1 so that the distance between the two frame members 21 and 22 is small, the outer shape of the jig 120 is small. Therefore, it is easy to carry the jig 120 together with the interior material W from the opening 3 (see FIG. 1) of the vehicle 1 in this state.
In addition, the same effects as those of the first embodiment are obtained.
