Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of ceramic production equipment, and in particular relates to a daily-use ceramic edge painting and glazing integrated all-in-one machine. Background Art
[0002] The existing ceramic edge painting and glazing processes are basically completed manually. Although there are a small number of edge painting and glazing equipment, they are all separate manual equipment, and there is no integrated automatic equipment. In addition, because they are not as much or as good as those done by skilled workers in terms of output and quality, especially each type of equipment can only be used for a certain type of ceramic clay product, and cannot be used for multiple products, most of the existing edge painting and glazing equipment are idle.
[0003] When the existing ceramic edge painting machine is working, it is necessary to manually place the products one by one on the positioning turntable. The products must be straightened, and then the edge painting device located on the upper part of the turntable falls and puts the brush on the edge of the product. The turntable rotates to complete the edge painting. After that, the brush rises and the painted product is taken out manually, and the cycle continues.
[0004] The current more advanced ceramic glazing machine requires multiple people to operate. During operation, the ceramic clay products are taken off the wooden board one by one by hand and placed neatly on the feeding conveyor belt with the upper end facing downward. The conveyor belt sends the product to the robot, which sucks the product up and sends it to the inner glaze spraying area to spray the inner glaze. Then the robot sends the product to a flip mechanism, which clamps the product and flips it 180 degrees to put the front of the product on the middle conveyor belt. From this conveyor belt, the product is sent to the outer glaze dipping area. The robot also sucks the product up and puts it into the glaze tank, then sends it to the bottom wiping area, and finally puts it on the discharging conveyor belt and then picks it up one by one by hand and puts it on the wooden board to complete the work.
[0005] In summary, the existing ceramic edge painting and glazing equipment all work as a single machine and can only operate on a single type of product; the operation process relies on manual labor and is inefficient. Summary of the invention

[0054] Example 2: Two-color glazing mode
[0055] The two-color glazing mode of the present invention only requires the constant liquid level glaze dipping cylinder 10 and the glaze spraying cylinder 12 in the single-color glazing mode to be interchanged, and the control system mode is switched to the two-color glazing mode. Other components are the same as those in the single-color glazing mode.
[0056] The working principle of the present invention is as follows:
[0057] 1. Single color glazing mode
[0058] When daily-use ceramic clay products need to be processed with edge painting and monochrome glazing, first turn on the control system, select the monochrome glaze control mode, and then all components start to operate and be debugged. Infrared sensors are provided on both sides of the preset temporary positions of the feed conveyor belt 2, the edge painting conveyor belt 4 and the discharge conveyor belt 16. When the ceramic clay product 19 moves to the preset temporary position, the infrared sensor detects the ceramic clay product 19, and the conveyor belt stops moving.
[0059] The staff puts the wooden board 18 full of ceramic clay products 19 on the feeding conveyor belt 2, and the wooden board 18 moves forward along the feeding conveyor belt 2. When the first ceramic clay product 19 moves to the bottom of the first handling robot 3, the feeding conveyor belt 2 stops moving, and the hand suction cup of the first handling robot 3 sucks up the first ceramic clay product 19 and transports it to the moving-in station a of the edge drawing conveyor belt 4. The first ceramic clay product 19 moves forward along the edge drawing conveyor belt 4. When the first ceramic clay product 19 reaches the positioning station b, the edge drawing conveyor belt 4 stops moving, and the positioning stations on both sides of the positioning station b The positioning cylinder 5 extends inward at the same time to position the first ceramic clay product 19 in the middle of the edge drawing conveyor belt 4, and then the positioning cylinder 5 retracts, the edge drawing conveyor belt 4 continues to move forward, and stops when it reaches the middle of the edge drawing station c, and the three-axis linear motor module edge drawing device 6 above drives the brush to draw an edge on the edge of the ceramic clay product. After the edge drawing is completed, the edge drawing conveyor belt 4 continues to move forward, and the first ceramic clay product 19 arrives at the removal station d, and stops when it arrives under the second handling robot 8. The second handling robot 8 transports the first ceramic clay product 19 to the first four-station turntable 9 The robot suction cup 9.2.4 of the 1# station 9.3 sucks the bottom of the first ceramic mud blank product 19, and the first four-station turntable 9 rotates in a clockwise direction. During the rotation of the 1# station 9.3 to the 2# station 9.4, the cylinder 9.2.3 is turned downward by 90 degrees and rotates downward at the same time. When it reaches the 2# station 9.4, the robot suction cup 9.2.4 is in a vertical state, and then the rodless cylinder 9.2.1 drives the robot suction cup 9.2.4 to move vertically downward, and the robot suction cup 9.2.4 drives the first ceramic mud blank product 19 to immerse downward into the constant In the constant liquid level area 10.3 of the fixed liquid level glaze dipping cylinder 10, since the height of the partition plate 10.2 is lower than the height of the outer wall of the constant liquid level glaze dipping cylinder 10, when the first ceramic clay product 19 is immersed in the constant liquid level area 10.3, the glaze overflowing from the area flows into the glaze storage area 10.1, and the glaze in the glaze storage area 10.1 enters the input end of the first glaze pump 10.5 through the first connecting pipe 10.4, and then enters the constant liquid level area 10.3 from the output end of the first glaze pump 10.5 through the first connecting pipe 10.4, thereby ensuring that the liquid level in the constant liquid level area 10.3 remains unchanged and forms a cycle;
[0060] After the glazing operation is completed for the first ceramic mud blank product 19 except the bottom, the rodless cylinder 9.2.1 drives the manipulator suction cup 9.2.4 to move vertically upward to reset, and the first four-station turntable 9 continues to rotate clockwise. When it reaches the 3# station 9.5, the cylinder 9.2.3 is turned down 90° to restore to the horizontal position. At this time, the first four-station turntable 9 is paused, and the first ceramic mud blank product 19 is dried at the 3# station 9.5. Then the first four-station turntable 9 continues to rotate clockwise, and the first ceramic mud blank product 19 reaches the 4# station 9.6. The first four-station turntable 9 is paused, and the second four-station turntable 11 is located at the 5# station 11.3. The upper and lower double-bar cylinder 11.2.3 moves downward to drive the suction cup 11.2.4 to move the first ceramic mud blank downward The product 19 is adsorbed on the suction cup 11.2.4, and then the second four-station turntable 11 rotates counterclockwise. When the first ceramic mud blank product 19 arrives at the 6# station 11.4, the glaze spraying head 12.2 in the middle of the top of the glaze spraying cylinder 12 is just below the first ceramic mud blank product 19, and the upper and lower double-bar cylinders 11.2.3 move downward to drive the suction cup 11.2.4 to move downward, so that the bottom of the ceramic mud blank product 19 reaches the mouth of the glaze spraying head 12.2. At this time, the glaze sprayed by the glaze spraying head 12.2 is evenly sprayed on the bottom of the ceramic mud blank product 19, and the glaze liquid in the glaze storage area 12.1 enters the input end of the second glaze pump 12.4 through the second connecting pipe 12.3, and is discharged from the glaze spraying head 12.2 through the output end and the second connecting pipe 12.3, and is sprayed on The bottom of the first ceramic mud blank product 19, and then the horizontal rotating cylinder 11.2.1 rotates 20-90 degrees to level the glaze liquid at the bottom of the ceramic mud blank product 19 to prevent the formation of water droplets at the bottom, completing the glazing operation at the bottom of the first ceramic mud blank product 19, and then the second four-station turntable 11 continues to rotate counterclockwise to rotate the first ceramic mud blank product 19 to the 7# station 11.5 for drying, and at the same time the horizontal rotating cylinder 11.2.1 is reset and then rotated to the 8# station 11.6, and the upper and lower double-bar cylinders 11.2.3 on the 8# station 11.6 drive the suction cup 11.2.4 downward to place the first ceramic mud blank product 19 bottom down on the sponge bottom wiping conveyor belt 13, and the first ceramic mud blank product 19 moves along the sponge bottom wiping conveyor belt 1 3 moves to the right. When the first ceramic clay product 19 moves to the right end of the sponge bottom wiping conveyor belt 13, it is stopped by the positioning stopper 14.1 and stops moving. The sponge bottom wiping conveyor belt 13 continues to move, so that friction is generated between the bottom of the first ceramic clay product 19 and the sponge bottom wiping conveyor belt 13 to achieve the bottom wiping function. After the bottom wiping is completed, the hand of the third handling robot 15 moves to the top of the first ceramic clay product 19 to suck it, and then the bottom wiping positioning cylinder 14 extends to the right, pushing the positioning stopper 14.1 to move forward to separate it from the first ceramic clay product 19. The third handling robot 15 lifts the first ceramic clay product 19 and transports it to the discharge conveyor belt 16. During the lifting process, due to the friction between the first ceramic clay product 19 and the positioning stopper 14.1, the third handling robot 15 lifts the first ceramic clay product 19 and transports it to the discharge conveyor belt 16.1 separation, which can effectively prevent the glaze on the side wall of the ceramic mud product 19 from being scratched during the lifting process;.
[0061] When the last ceramic mud product 19 placed on the wooden board 18 enters the edge drawing and glazing process, the wooden board 18 moves forward with the feeding conveyor belt 2. When it moves under the fourth handling robot 17, the fourth handling robot 17 transports the wooden board 18 to the discharging conveyor belt 16 and moves with the discharging conveyor belt 16. When the first ceramic mud product 19 completes all processes and is ready to enter the discharging conveyor belt 16, the first wooden board 18 is just moved under the third handling robot 15. At this time, the first ceramic mud product 19 is placed on the wooden board 18, and the subsequent ceramic mud products 19 repeat the above steps. After completion, the ceramic mud product 19 is placed on the wooden board 18, and the staff can take it away. In the whole process, the edge drawing and glazing processes of the ceramic mud product 19 can be fully automated. Only one staff member is required to place the wooden board 18 on the feeding conveyor belt 2 and take the wooden board 18 away at the discharging conveyor belt 16, which greatly achieves the reduction of staff and increases efficiency and improves the quality of the product.
[0062] 2. Two-color glazing mode
[0063] When daily-use ceramic clay products need to be processed with edge painting and two-color glazing, first turn on the control system, select the two-color glaze control mode, and then all components start to operate and be debugged. Infrared sensors are provided on both sides of the preset temporary positions of the feed conveyor belt 2, the edge painting conveyor belt 4 and the discharge conveyor belt 16. When the ceramic clay product 19 moves to the preset temporary position, the infrared sensor detects the ceramic clay product 19, and the conveyor belt stops moving.
[0064] The staff puts the wooden board 18 full of ceramic clay products 19 on the feeding conveyor belt 2, and the wooden board 18 moves forward along the feeding conveyor belt 2. When the first ceramic clay product 19 moves to the bottom of the first handling robot 3, the feeding conveyor belt 2 stops moving, and the hand suction cup of the first handling robot 3 sucks up the first ceramic clay product 19 and transports it to the moving-in station a of the edge conveyor belt 4. The first ceramic clay product 19 moves forward with the edge conveyor belt 4. When the first ceramic clay product 19 reaches the positioning station b, the edge conveyor belt 4 stops moving, and the positioning cylinders 5 on both sides of the positioning station b extend inward at the same time to position the first ceramic clay product 19 in the middle of the edge conveyor belt 4, and then the positioning cylinders 5 are moved inward. The cylinder 5 retracts, and the edge drawing conveyor belt 4 continues to move forward, and stops when it reaches the middle of the edge drawing station c. The three-axis linear motor module edge drawing device 6 above drives the brush to draw an edge on the edge of the ceramic mud product. After the edge drawing is completed, the edge drawing conveyor belt 4 continues to move forward, and the first ceramic mud product 19 arrives at the removal station d. When it reaches under the second handling robot 8, it stops moving. The second handling robot 8 transports the first ceramic mud product 19 to the robot suction cup 9.2.4 of the 1# station 9.3 of the first four-station turntable 9. The robot suction cup 9.2.4 sucks the bottom of the first ceramic mud product 19, and the first four-station turntable 9 rotates clockwise and rotates from the 1# station 9.3 to the 2# station 9.4. During the process, the horizontal 180° rotating cylinder 9.2.2 rotates horizontally at the same time, and when it reaches the 2# station 9.4, the robot suction cup 9.2.4 rotates exactly 180°, and the first ceramic mud blank product 19 opens downward, and then the rodless cylinder 9.2.1 drives the robot suction cup 9.2.4 to move vertically downward. The first ceramic mud blank product 19 opens downward and is located directly above the glaze spraying head 12.2 in the middle of the top of the glaze spraying cylinder 12. The rodless cylinder 9.2.1 drives the robot suction cup 9.2.4 downward to make the inside of the ceramic mud blank product 19 reach the mouth of the glaze spraying head 12.2. At this time, the glaze sprayed by the glaze spraying head 12.2 is evenly sprayed on the inside of the ceramic mud blank product 19, and the glaze storage area 12.1 The glaze liquid enters the input end of the second glaze pump 12.4 through the second connecting pipe 12.3, and then is discharged from the glaze spraying head 12.2 through the output end through the second connecting pipe 12.3, and is sprayed on the inside of the first ceramic mud blank product 19, completing the glazing operation inside the first ceramic mud blank product 19. The sprayed glaze liquid falls back into the glaze storage area 12.1 again, and the glaze liquid circulates in the glaze storage area 12.1. After the internal glazing of the first ceramic mud blank product 19 is completed, the robot suction cup 9.2.4 lifts the first ceramic mud blank product 19, and the first four-station turntable 9 continues to rotate clockwise, and the horizontal 180° rotating cylinder 9.2.2 rotates and resets. When it reaches the 3# station 9.5, the horizontal 180° rotating cylinder 9.2.2 reset, the first ceramic clay product 19 is left vacant to dry, then the first four-station turntable 9 continues to rotate clockwise, the first ceramic clay product 19 arrives at the 4# station 9.6, the first four-station turntable 9 pauses, the second four-station turntable 11 is located at the 5# station 11.3, the upper and lower double-bar cylinders 11.2.3 move downward to drive the suction cup 11.2.4 downward to adsorb the first ceramic clay product 19 on the suction cup 11.2.4, then the second four-station turntable 11 rotates counterclockwise, when the first ceramic clay product 19 arrives at the 6# station 11.4, the upper and lower double-bar cylinders 11.2.3 of the 6# station 11.4 move downward to drive the suction cup 11.2.4 to move downward , driving the first ceramic clay product 19 downward, immersing it to the edge of the mouth into the constant liquid level area 10.3 of the constant liquid level glaze dipping cylinder 10. Since the height of the partition plate 10.2 is lower than the height of the outer wall of the constant liquid level glaze dipping cylinder 10, when the first ceramic clay product 19 is immersed in the constant liquid level area 10.3, the glaze overflowing from the area flows into the glaze storage area 10.1, and the glaze in the glaze storage area 10.1 enters the input end of the first glaze pump 10.5 through the first connecting pipe 10.4, and then enters the constant liquid level area 10.3 from the output end of the first glaze pump 10.5 through the first connecting pipe 10.4, thereby ensuring that the liquid level in the constant liquid level area 10.3 remains unchanged and forms a cycle;.
[0065] After the external glazing is completed, the second four-station turntable 11 continues to rotate counterclockwise to rotate the first ceramic mud blank product 19 to the 7# station 11.5, and the horizontal rotating cylinder 11.2.1 rotates horizontally at an angle of 20-90 degrees to tilt the first ceramic mud blank product 19 to prevent the formation of a water drop shape at the bottom. The second four-station turntable 11 continues to rotate counterclockwise to the 8# station 11.6, and the upper and lower double-bar cylinders 11.2.3 on the 8# station 11.6 drive the suction cup 11.2.4 downward to place the first ceramic mud blank product 19 bottom-down on the sponge-wiping conveyor belt 13, and the first ceramic mud blank product 19 moves to the right with the sponge-wiping conveyor belt 13. When the first ceramic mud blank product 19 moves to the right end of the sponge-wiping conveyor belt 13, The first ceramic clay product 19 is stopped by the positioning stopper 14.1, and the sponge bottom wiping conveyor belt 13 continues to move, so that friction is generated between the bottom of the first ceramic clay product 19 and the sponge bottom wiping conveyor belt 13, and the bottom wiping function is realized. After the bottom wiping is completed, the hand of the third handling robot 15 moves to the top of the first ceramic clay product 19 to suck it, and then the bottom wiping positioning cylinder 14 extends forward to push the positioning stopper 14.1 to move forward to separate it from the first ceramic clay product 19. The third handling robot 15 lifts the first ceramic clay product 19 and transports it to the discharge conveyor belt 16. During the lifting process, since the first ceramic clay product 19 is separated from the positioning stopper 14.1, the glaze on the side wall of the ceramic clay product 19 can be prevented from being scratched during the lifting process.
[0066] When the ceramic mud products 19 on the wooden board 18 placed on the feeding conveyor belt 2 have entered the edge drawing and glazing process, the wooden board 18 moves forward with the feeding conveyor belt 2. When it moves under the fourth handling robot 17, the fourth handling robot 17 transports the wooden board 18 to the discharging conveyor belt 16 and moves with the discharging conveyor belt 16. When the first ceramic mud product 19 completes all processes and enters the discharging conveyor belt 16, the first wooden board 18 just moves under the 15-third handling robot. At this time, the first ceramic mud product 19 is placed on the wooden board 18, and the subsequent ceramic mud products 19 repeat the above steps. After completion, the ceramic mud product 19 is placed on the wooden board 18, and the staff can take it away. In the whole process, the edge drawing and glazing processes of the ceramic mud products 19 can be fully automated. Only one staff member is required to place the wooden board 18 on the feeding conveyor belt 2 and take the wooden board 18 away at the discharging conveyor belt 16, which greatly achieves the reduction of staff and increases efficiency and improves the quality of the products.
[0067] The two-color glazing mode can also be used for single-color glazing of daily-use ceramic flat-mouth products, and the glaze liquid in the constant-level glaze dipping tank 10 and the glaze spraying tank 12 only needs to be replaced with the glaze liquid of the same color.
[0068] In the single-color glazing mode and the double-color glazing mode, when the daily-use ceramic clay products do not need to be edge-drawn, it is only necessary to turn off the edge-drawing device 6 in the control mode. At this time, the edge-drawing conveyor belt 4 only serves the function of conveying.
