Detailed Description

For the purpose of facilitating understanding, the present invention will be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Referring to fig. 1 and 2, fig. 1 is a schematic perspective view of a flexible production line constructed by combined units provided by an embodiment of the present invention, fig. 2 is a top view of the flexible production line shown in fig. 1, a central unit 1 and a peripheral unit 2 around the central unit 1 of the flexible production line are all combined units provided by the embodiment, as can be seen from fig. 1, the combined units are cabinet-shaped, the upper parts of the combined units are splicing parts in a regular hexagonal prism shape, the top surfaces of the splicing parts are work tables (see fig. 3) laid by profiles 3 with screw installation grooves 31, and any two combined units are combined with each other so that the work tables are expanded by tightly attaching the side surfaces of the splicing parts to each other.

As shown in fig. 2, the present embodiment arranges six peripheral units 2 around a central unit 1, counting clockwise from the upper left corner of fig. 2, the first four peripheral units 2 are all combined with the central unit 1, the fifth peripheral unit 2 is combined with the fourth peripheral unit 2, and the sixth peripheral unit 2 is combined with the fifth peripheral unit 2. Because the table surface of the combined unit is paved by the section bar 3 with the thread piece mounting groove 31, flexible mounting points can be provided for various tool equipment, the installation of the whole table surface at any position without punching is realized, in the concrete practical application, the section bar 3 can be spliced and paved according to the structure shown in figure 3, and only the section bars 3 with two specifications and sizes are needed. It will be appreciated that the number and arrangement of the combined units may be selected according to the requirements of a particular process flow, for example, figure 2 illustrates an exemplary production line comprising seven combined units and six peripheral units 2 arranged in a C-shape, and for shorter process flows it may be necessary to use only the first four peripheral units 2, at which time the fifth and sixth peripheral units 2 may be removed; for a longer process flow, eight peripheral units 2 may be used, and at this time, two more peripheral units 2 may be added, and the two added peripheral units 2 may be arranged in a clockwise direction after the sixth peripheral unit 2, or may be arranged in a counterclockwise direction, so that the C-shaped layout is changed to the S-shaped layout. Therefore, the flexible production line provided by the invention adopts a modular design, is more flexible and convenient to adjust during the production line, and the splicing part of the combination unit can be designed into other regular prism shapes, such as a regular quadrangular prism shape or a regular pentagonal prism shape, besides the regular hexagonal prism shape shown in the embodiment. The upper parts of the combination units are designed to be regular prisms, and are spliced and expanded with other combination units through the side surfaces of the regular prisms, so that the universality and the layout flexibility of the combination units are greatly improved, a production line designer can very easily obtain various desired production line layout schemes, and the requirements of different process flows are met.

As shown in figure 1, the combined unit is designed into a cabinet shape, and can provide a working table with a proper height for workers, for example, the height of the combined unit can be 80 cm-110 cm, so that the combined unit is convenient for the workers to operate when standing, and the bending fatigue is reduced. The side length of the working table is generally designed to be 70 cm-90 cm, and the working table can be well adapted to the moving range of hands. In order to be able to move the combined unit quickly, wheels, for example universal wheels with locking means, may be provided at the bottom of the combined unit. In specific practical application, in order to build a control network of a production line, a wireless transceiver module can be arranged in the combined unit, for example, the whole-line 5G network communication is realized through the wireless transceiver module, and the problems that the production line is long in construction period, difficult to disassemble and adjust and the like due to the fact that the combined units are connected through network cables are avoided. In addition, the circular telegram cable that the production line was used and vent line can arrange inside the assembled unit, for the convenience of accomplishing circular telegram cable and vent line's equipment fast, this embodiment sets up circular telegram cable and vent line's joint in the lateral surface of concatenation portion, and when two assembled units were made up, both just moved each other to the other and in opposite directions with the side of concatenation portion each other, until concatenation portion between them pastes and leans on together and make circular telegram cable and vent line between them communicate respectively. Taking the central unit 1 shown in fig. 4 and the peripheral unit 2 shown in fig. 5 as an example, the outer side surface of the splicing part of the central unit 1 is provided with the air pipe connector 13 and the cable connector 14, and the outer side surface of the splicing part of the peripheral unit 2 is provided with the air pipe connector 23 and the cable connector 24, and as can be seen from comparing fig. 4 and 5, on the outer side surfaces of the two combined units which are matched with each other, the layout of the connectors is a mirror image relationship, namely, the air pipe connector 13 is a mirror image of the air pipe connector 23, and the cable connector 14 is a mirror image of the cable connector 24, so that when the two combined units are attached to each other with the side surfaces of the splicing parts, the air pipe connector 13 is connected with the air pipe connector 23, and the cable connector 14 is connected with the cable connector 24. It should be noted that the splicing portion of the combination unit has a plurality of outer side surfaces, which can be selectively provided with joints, and two versions of joint layouts that are mirror images of each other are usually designed on the same combination unit to improve the convenience of the use of the combination unit, for example, the peripheral unit 2 in fig. 2 may be located at a position that receives the central unit 1 and other peripheral units 2, so that the embodiment adopts the joint scheme of the version shown in fig. 5 on one outer side surface of the peripheral unit 2, and adopts the joint scheme of the version shown in fig. 4 on the other outer side surfaces of the peripheral unit 2, so that the requirement of combining with the central unit 1 and the subsequent peripheral units 2 can be satisfied by arbitrarily selecting one peripheral unit 2.

In order to facilitate that two combined units which are combined with each other are firmly fixed together, electromagnetic locks can be correspondingly arranged on the outer side surfaces of the splicing parts of the two combined units, similarly, taking the central unit 1 shown in fig. 4 and the peripheral unit 2 shown in fig. 5 as an example, the electromagnetic lock 12 is arranged on the outer side surface of the splicing part of the central unit 1, the electromagnetic lock 22 is arranged on the outer side surface of the splicing part of the peripheral unit 2, the electromagnetic lock 12 and the electromagnetic lock 22 are in a mirror image relationship in layout, and at least one of the two combined units is provided with an electromagnetic coil and can generate magnetic force which is attracted to the other side after being electrified. In order to enable the two combined units to be automatically attracted when approaching to a certain degree, a travel switch can be arranged to control the electromagnetic lock, as shown in fig. 4 and 5, a travel switch 11 electrically connected with the electromagnetic lock 12 is arranged on the outer side surface of the splicing part of the central unit 1, a stop block 21 matched with the travel switch 11 is arranged on the outer side surface of the splicing part of the peripheral unit 2, when the peripheral unit 2 is combined with the central unit 1, the stop block 21 moves towards the travel switch 11, and when the peripheral unit 2 approaches to the certain degree with the central unit 1, the stop block 21 touches the travel switch 11, so that the power supply of the electromagnetic lock 12 is automatically switched on.

In order to enable the two combined units to be quickly and accurately aligned, the combined units of the embodiment are provided with a guide structure for alignment on the outer side surface of the splicing part. It should be noted that, the guiding structures on the two combined units combined with each other are correspondingly arranged, taking fig. 4 and fig. 5 as an example, the central unit 1 is provided with a guiding groove perpendicular to the outer side surface of the splicing portion below the stroke switch 11, the peripheral unit 2 is provided with a protruding block perpendicular to the outer side surface of the splicing portion below the stop block 21, and when the peripheral unit 2 is combined with the central unit 1, the protruding block extends into the guiding groove to ensure accurate alignment.

In the embodiment shown in fig. 1 and 2, the combined units are divided into two types, namely a central unit 1 and a peripheral unit 2, and some general equipment, such as a cooperative robot and the like, can be installed on the working table of the central unit 1, so that when the production line is constructed, the central unit 1 is fixed as the central part of the line body, and a new production line can be quickly formed only by replacing the peripheral unit 2 according to different process flows.
