20180281121 · 2018-10-04 ·

A gantry table includes a table main body. A gantry rail extends along the table main body, and a gantry rack extends along the table main body. The gantry table includes a gantry comprising a pinion gear that engages the gantry rack. The pinion gear drives the gantry to move along the table main body on the gantry rail. A tool bracket is movable along the gantry. The gantry table further includes a first adjustment bar and a second adjustment bar. The gantry rail and the gantry rack are attached to both of the first adjustment bar and the second adjustment bar. A joiner plate joins the first adjustment bar to the second adjustment bar. The gantry table includes a vertical adjustment that is configured to adjust a vertical position of the joiner plate with respect to the table main body. The gantry table further includes a depth adjustment configured to adjust a lateral position of the joiner plate with respect to the table main body.

Method of using a panel framing device to build panels for use in house construction
10017951 · 2018-07-10 ·

This invention is directed toward a panel framing device. The device comprises a portable framing table that can be driven in a trailer to remote locations and a pre-printed roll of framing tape that is used to tell a worker where different parts of a framed panel will go. The goal of the device is to facilitate the building of structures using a panel approach, with the framing table and template tape minimizing the chances that a worker will make a mistake in either the selection of materials or the location of the materials. The technology can also be used to construct entire walls, which are then either transported to the site, or merely tilted-up into place, having been constructed on the slab.

Workpiece orientation mechanism

A workpiece orientation mechanism includes: a driving device including a transmission motor and a controller which are connected with each other via signal, the transmission motor defining an axial direction; a rotating seat, combined with the transmission motor, and capable of being driven to rotate by the transmission motor; an orientation head disposed on the rotating seat to rotate synchronously with the rotating seat, wherein the orientation head is capable of moving along the axial direction relative to the rotating seat, one end of the orientation head includes a mounting head, and a blocking member is disposed on the orientation head; reset means, arranged between the rotating seat and the orientation head, and positioning the orientation head at a predetermined position; and a sensor facing the blocking member, wherein the sensor is signally connected with the controller.
