Research Method of Assembly Sequence Planning Based on Assembly Constraint Relationship Analysis
Abstract
In order to effectively reduce the human-computer interaction (HCI) workload before the assembly process simulation in the digital assembly environment, and to enhance the intelligence of assembly sequence planning, we introduce the assembly constraint relationship into the automatic generation of assembly sequences and propose a practical assembly sequence planning method for intelligent assembly. Firstly, starting from the assembly geometry model, an assembly model liaison graph is constructed by combining the analysis of assembly constraint relationship and the definition of disassembly direction rules. Then, according to the liaison graph, disassembly priority constraint matrix based on constraint relationship is constructed, and the automatic generation and dynamic update of the disassembly priority diagram can be realized by the definition of disassembly doubly linked list. According to the diagram, the rationality of the disassembly sequence is determined through the interference check analysis, and then the assembly sequence is automatically generated from the reversed disassembly sequence. Finally, the method in the text is verified by an example case study.
