Embodiment Construction

[0031] exist figure 1 shows a part of a production line 1 on which a car body 3 of a first model is conveyed to successive workstations, wherein figure 1A welding station 5 is shown by way of example. A fitting station (not shown) is arranged upstream of the welding station 5 , in which body parts 9 of the first vehicle type are held or prepositioned loosely on both sides of the body structure 3 . Workstation 5 is a welding station with a corresponding robotic application for processing vehicle body 3 . Workstation 5 has some welding manipulators 7 in a known manner for this reason, and they only Figure 5 and 6 shown schematically.

[0032] according to figure 1 , the workstation 5 has a fixed standard assembly 11, which is shown separately in figure 2 middle. The fixed standard assembly 11 is essentially two-piece consisting of the image 3 The basic frame 13 shown in and a positioning and locking unit 15 for the clamping frames A, B, C, D described later are formed...

Abstract

The invention relates to a work station of an assembly line for joining body parts (3, 9) of a motor vehicle, especially for joining at least one lateral part (9) to a body structure (3, 51). Said work station has a clamping frame storage area (39) used to provide clamping frames (A, B, C, D) and comprising at least one carriage (37) for moving at least one clamping frame (A, B, C, D) in the clamping frame storage area (39), and a lifting device (35) for moving the clamping frames (A, B, C, D) between the clamping frame storage area (39) and the work station (5). According to the invention, the carriage (37) and the lifting device (35) form a movably-coupled structural unit (47) containing the clamping frames (A, B, C, D).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a work station for a production line for joining body parts of motor vehicles according to the preamble of claim 1, a production line according to claim 14 comprising such a work station and a production line according to claim 1. 15. Method for feeding / replacing clamping frames in one workstation. Background technique [0002] In known production lines, the automobile bodies in white are conveyed to successive work stations in which the bodies in white are processed and / or the individual body parts are welded to a body structure conveyed along the line. In a welding station, the individual body parts to be welded to the body structure are brought into a defined position relative to the body structure for welding by means of the clamping frame. [0003] Such a workstation of such a production line is known from DE 38 23 947 C2. The workstation has a feed device for feeding at least one clamping frame to the body structure. T...
