Description
- This application claims the benefits of the priority based on Taiwan Patent Application No. 095141018 filed on Nov. 6, 2006; the disclosures of which are incorporated by reference herein in their entirety.
- Not applicable.
- 1. Field of the Invention
- The present invention relates to a working apparatus for use in manufacturing processes. In particular, the invention relates to a working table that helps operators work and reach components.
- 2. Descriptions of the Related Art
- In industrial manufacturing processes, components are independently produced in large quantities and distributed to production lines for assembly into final products. In conventional production lines, the operators work independently on the different stages of the production lines. The assembly processes of the final products are usually accomplished with many operators who work in sequence.
- However, the aforesaid manner may not be the best way for product assembly. For example, when the assembly requires various components that can be assembled simply, there may be an imbalance on the production lines due to wasted time, but also lower yields due to unsmooth steps in the production lines. Furthermore, the manufacturing processes may not be flexibly arranged due to equipment restrictions used in the conventional production lines and limited space in the factory. In addition, the equipments used in the production lines also consume resources and increase costs.
- To improve the balance in the production lines and working efficiency, the production lines can be cell-lined. In other words, each of the operators can independently accomplish the product assembly. The cell-line is especially suitable for products which can be simply assembled. However, this kind of cell-line production may be difficult for storing a large number of components in each assembly station.
- Given the above, it is important to develop a novel working table for more efficient assembly.
- The primary objective of this invention is to provide a working table that is adapted to a cell-line type of manufacturing and independent working. The conventional disadvantages can be overcome by using the working table in the present invention, which has an upper frame, multi-working plates, and wing-working plates to extend the working spaces. Parts containers are also disposed on the working plate to store a large number of components. Thus, space can be effectively used.
- Another objective of this invention is to provide a working table which has sufficient working plates and components that contain spaces for an independent operator in the manufacturing process. The working plates are movably connected for folding when the working table is not in use. Thus, the factory space can be effectively arranged without wasting space.
- Still another objective of this invention is to provide a working table, in which the elements of the working table are made from low-costing materials. Due to the materials used for the working table are not limited, low-costing materials are considered in higher priority. Thus, the working table of the present invention has an advantage of lower costs.
- To achieve the aforesaid objectives, a working table comprising a main frame and a plurality of working plates spaced apart from each other along the main frame in a vertical direction is provided. The main frame has an upper frame which is disposed at the top portion of the main frame. A parts container is disposed on the upper end of the working plates. A wing-working plate is disposed on one side of the working plate. The working plates and parts container can be added or stacked in sequence according to the actual requirement. Thus, sufficient spaces for work and receiving components are provided.
- The detailed technology and preferred embodiments implemented for the subject invention are described in the following paragraphs accompanying the appended drawings for people skilled in this field to well appreciate the features of the claimed invention.
-
FIG. 1 is a schematic view structurally illustrating the working table of the present invention; -
FIG. 2 is a schematic view illustrating the working plate of the working table of the present invention; -
FIG. 3 is a schematic view illustrating the wing-working plate of the working table of the present invention; and -
FIG. 4 is a schematic view illustrating the parts container of the working table of the present invention. -
FIG. 1 illustrates the working table of the present invention. The working table comprises amain frame 2, which includes a plurality of stands substantially vertical and parallel with each other. As shown inFIG. 1 , themain frame 2 includes twolong stands 21 and twoshort stands 23. Anupper frame 1 is disposed at the top portion of themain frame 2 in which theupper frame 1 horizontally connects to thelong stands 21. A plurality ofworking plates 5 are spaced apart from each other along themain frame 2 in a vertical direction. At least one of theworking plates 5 has aparts container 3 which is disposed on the upper end thereof. The wing-workingplate 4 is disposed on the side of oneworking plate 5. -
FIG. 2 illustrates a schematic view of theworking plates 5. Eachworking plates 5 has anupper surface 50 which has at least one protrudingrib 51 disposed on an edge of theupper surface 50. Theprotruding rib 51 is used to block the components from falling during the assembly. The plurality of protrudingribs 51 can be continuously or separately disposed according to the actual requirements. - In
FIG. 3 , the wing-workingplate 4 has twoplates 43 and a plurality of connectingboards 44 which are flexibly capable of connecting to theplates 43 for folding. Similarly, the protrudingribs 42 can be continuously or separately disposed on the edges of the upper surface of theplates 43 for preventing falling components. - It is noted that the number of the wing-working
plates 4 and workingplates 5 are adjustable according to the actual requirements. For example, as shown inFIG. 1 , the working table of the present invention includes an upper workingplate 53 and alower working plate 55, in which theparts container 3 is disposed on the top of the upper workingplate 53. In addition, the wing-workingplate 4 is disposed on the side of the upper workingplate 53 while another wing-workingplate 4 can be disposed on the opposite side of the upper workingplate 53 -
FIG. 4 shows theparts container 3 which includes a plurality ofunits 33 at least partially stacked in sequence. Specifically, each of theunits 33 has an elongated structure with a top opening and a box-shaped receiving space. At least onepartitioning panel 32 is disposed in each of theunits 33 to define a plurality of sub-spaces in each of theunits 33. In actuality, the sub-spaces can efficiently categorize and receive the components. - More specifically, when the working table of the present invention is assembled, the working
plates 5 are separately fixed onto themain frame 2. Theupper frame 1 is then fixed at the top portion of the twolong stands 21 of themain frame 2. The wing-workingplates 4 are assembled on the two opposite sides of the workingplates 5. Subsequently, theunits 33 can be stacked in sequence at the appropriate position on the workingplates 5. Theparts container 3 can be additionally disposed on the workingplates 5, theupper frame 1 and the wing-workingplates 4. - According to the working table disclosed in the present invention, the working space in the manufacturing processes can be effectively extended and various components can be stored and arranged. After the assembly process is partially accomplished, the working table can be folded when not in use.
- The above disclosure is related to the detailed technical contents and inventive features thereof. People skilled in this field may proceed with a variety of modifications and replacements based on the disclosures and suggestions of the invention as described without departing from the characteristics thereof. Nevertheless, although such modifications and replacements are not fully disclosed in the above descriptions, they have substantially been covered in the following claims as appended.
