Title:
ROBOT VISION-BASED AUTOMATIC RIVET PLACEMENT SYSTEM AND METHOD
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2021/003858
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A robot vision-based automatic rivet placement system and a method. The automatic rivet placement system comprises: an industrial robot (1) installed on a frame, a multi-functional end effector (2), a rivet blowing mechanism (4), a detection disk (5), and a rivet holding tray (10). The multi-functional end effector consists of a flange disk (12), a support frame (13), an industrial CCD camera (14), a laser displacement sensor (15), a spring (16), a mixing rod (17), and a vacuum nozzle (18). The multi-functional end effector is connected to a terminal end of the industrial robot via the flange disk. The industrial CCD camera is installed directly in front of the support frame, and used to acquire a rivet image and measure a rivet parameter. The laser displacement sensor is installed at a side surface of the support frame, and is used to measure a rivet depth. The vacuum nozzle is installed below the support frame, and is used to pick up and place a rivet. The automatic rivet placement system is applicable to rivet detection and automatic rivet placement during aircraft manufacturing processes.
