Abstract

Presented is a weather strip installation apparatus comprising: a base provided at a robot arm; a pressing part provided at an end portion of the base so as to press a weather strip toward an installation part, thereby insert-coupling the weather strip to the installation part; and a guide part, which is provided on the base at a position spaced apart from the pressing part, is elongated or contracted toward the weather strip with respect to the base, and grips or releases the weather strip. According to the weather strip installation apparatus of the present invention, a weather strip can be automatically installed such that working efficiency can be improved and defect rate can be remarkably reduced. In addition, a robot is used, and the weight thereof is reduced through simplification of an installation device, and thus precise robot control and fitting operation control are possible.
