ネルのセツト作業を行う。(Function) At the setting station, the components of the side panel are set in an upright position from one side in the lateral direction on the setting jig, then the setting cart is moved forward to the welding station, and these components are temporarily attached using a welding robot as appropriate. After that, the welding robot performs additional stroke welding to form an integral side panel, and during this welding operation, the setting cart is moved back to the setting station to set the next side panel.
ここで、サイドパネルのセツト作業は、これら
起立姿勢でセツト治具にセツトできることから、
作業者に無理な姿勢を強いることなく行い得られ
る。 Here, the work of setting the side panel is done because it can be set on the setting jig in this standing position.
This can be done without forcing the worker into an unreasonable posture.

ことが可能となり、作業能率も向上する。 In addition, unlike the conventional method in which the side panel is placed in a horizontal position into the welding station, the holder and welding robot can be centrally arranged on one side of the welding station in the lateral direction opposite to the setting jig. The width is narrowed, and setting work at the setting station can be performed simultaneously during welding work, improving work efficiency.

ング剤を塗布される。 In addition, the welded side panels are taken from the holder and received in an upright position by a payout jig on a payout cart, and transported to a sealing station by the forward movement of the payout cart, and then delivered to a sealing jig in an upright position. Then, a sealant is applied by a coating robot.

業能率が向上する。 Then, by delivering the side panel to the sealing jig, the unloading cart is returned to the welding station to wait during the sealing work, and after the work at the welding station and the sealing station is completed, the welded side panel is immediately removed. It becomes possible to transport it to the sealing station, improving work efficiency.

上させることができる。 Here, in the sealing station, for example, a coating robot is disposed on one side in the lateral direction sandwiching the track of the delivery cart, and a sealing jig is arranged on the other side, so that the track of the cart and the track of the setting cart are arranged. If they match, even if the welding equipment including the welding robot is concentrated on one side of the track in the horizontal direction, the sealing jig at the sealing station will overhang to the other side of the track in the horizontal direction, causing the entire line to be stretched horizontally. Although the width becomes wider, in the present invention, the track of the unloading cart is laterally offset to one side from the track of the setting cart, so the sealing jig can be placed in the space of the extension of the track of the setting cart. , the width of the entire line can be narrowed to improve space efficiency.

の受渡しを行う。 Here, the delivery cart 10 is supported by rails 12a, 12a on a second track 12 offset laterally outward with respect to the first track 4, and is connected to the setting cart 5 via a connecting frame 13. As the setting cart 5 reciprocates, it is reciprocated between the welding station 2 and the sealing station 3 along the second track 12. Note that the laterally outer rail 4a of the first track 4 and the laterally outer rail 12a of the second track 12 are constituted by a common rail. The sealing station 3 includes a coating robot 14 having a sealant coating nozzle 14a attached to the outer side of the second track 12 in the lateral direction, and a sealing jig 15 that holds the side panel W on the inner side of the second track 12 in the lateral direction. A side panel W on the dispensing jig 11 is provided oppositely to the dispensing jig 11.
can be freely delivered to the sealing jig 15 in an upright position. To explain this in more detail, a guide frame 10a is vertically disposed on the outer side of the dispensing cart 10 in the lateral direction, and a support frame 11a is attached to the guide frame 10a to support the dispensing jig 11 so as to be movable laterally. The payout jig 11 is supported so as to be able to move up and down, so that the payout jig 11 can be moved laterally and moved up and down by the movement of the support frame 11a, and after the payout cart 10 returns to the welding station 2, The dispensing jig 11 is advanced laterally outward as shown in FIG. is opened and the jig 11 is moved laterally inward to allow the jig 11 to receive the side panel W, and after the dispensing cart 10 is moved toward the sealing station 3, the jig 11 is moved laterally inward. Ingredients 1
1 laterally inward and raised,
In this raised position, as shown in FIG. 7, the side panel W is held by a holding member 15a such as a clamper or a workpiece holder provided in the sealing jig 15, and then, after releasing the clamper 11b of the jig 11, the jig 11 is The side panel W is moved laterally outward and lowered to attach the side panel W to the sealing jig 15.
The delivery will take place.

効果の方が大きく、全体として加工ラインＬの全
体の横巾を可及的に短縮することができる。 Here, the dispensing jig 11 is for holding the welded side panel W, and is smaller than the setting jig 6, which needs to position and hold the outer panel and various inner members before welding. Therefore, the second track 12 can be formed narrower by downsizing the delivery cart 10, and even if the second track 12 is offset laterally outward from the first track 4, the width of the processing line L can be increased by this. is small, and rather, this offset makes it possible to fit the sealing jig 15 placed laterally inside the second track 12 of the sealing station 3 into the extended space of the first track 4. The effect of shortening the width is greater, and the overall width of the processing line L can be shortened as much as possible.

It is now possible to centrally arrange them on one side in a direction, which shortens the width of the welding station, and also allows the setting cart to be moved back to the setting station during welding work to set the next side panel. This reduces time loss due to setting work.
Furthermore, the welded side panels are transported from the welding station to the sealing station in front of the welding station by a payout jig on the payout cart, and then delivered to the sealing jig. Let's move back,
It is possible to prepare for transporting the next side panel, improving work efficiency, and due to the offset arrangement of the track of the unloading trolley, the extended part of the track for the setting trolley can be used as a space for arranging a sealing jig or coating robot. It has the effect of shortening the width of the entire processing line as much as possible.
