The assembly process of the unit curtain wall 100 is as follows: the glass 120 is covered on the upper surface of the curtain wall frame 110, a gap is provided between the lower surface of the glass 120 and the upper surface of the curtain wall frame 110, a structural adhesive 130 is injected into the gap between the glass 120 and the curtain wall frame 110, the glass 120 is adhered and fixed to the curtain wall frame 110 by the structural adhesive 130, and then the edge guard 140 is installed on the side wall of the curtain wall frame 110 and the glass 120, and then the filler (foam rod) 150 is installed between the edge guard 140 and the side wall of the glass 120, and finally the edge guard 140 and the glass 120 are sealed by the sealant 160, and the assembly and production of the unit curtain wall 100 is completed.

[0080] At present, during the assembly and production of the unit curtain wall 100, the assembly process of the glass 120, the application process of the structural adhesive 130, the application process of the sealant 160, and the inspection process after the unit curtain wall 100 is assembled are all completed manually by the operator, with low automation and production efficiency. The assembly quality of each process of the unit curtain wall is also difficult to control and cannot meet the modern production needs. Therefore, the industry needs to design a set of automatic assembly production line system for unit curtain walls to realize the intelligent assembly of unit curtain walls. After the edge guard and filler are installed, how to automatically inject sealant into the gap between the glass and the edge guard is a problem faced by technical personnel in the industry.

[0081] In order to solve the above problems, the inventor of the present application proposed the technical solution of the present application, and the specific embodiments are as follows:

[0089] The glue changing mechanism 5 is arranged on one side of the fixing frame 1 .

[0090] The glue gun 3 is arranged on the moving mechanism 2, and the moving mechanism 2 drives the glue gun 3 to move along the curtain wall frame. When the glue gun 3 moves, the sealant flowing out from the gun mouth 31 of the gun head is smeared in the gap between the edge guard and the glass, so that the edge guard, the glass and the curtain wall frame are sealed. After the sealant in the glue gun 3 is used up, the moving mechanism 2 drives the glue gun 3 to move to the glue changing mechanism 5. Through the cooperation of the glue changing mechanism 5 and the moving mechanism 2, the sealant bag 4 in the glue gun 3 is automatically replaced to continue to apply glue in the gap between the edge guard and the glass, so as to realize the continuous glue application work.

Then the manipulator 21 drives the gun body 32 to extend into the tapered hole of the gun head 31 on the fixed seat 32, and then drives the gun body 32 to rotate, so as to realize the connection between the gun body 32 and the gun head 31, and complete the automatic replacement of the sealant bag 4 in the glue gun 3.

[0108] In this embodiment, the glue gun is controlled by a PLC controller. After the sealant in the glue gun is used up, the glue changing process is as follows: the manipulator drives the glue gun to move, fixes the gun head on the fixed seat, rotates the gun body to separate the gun body from the gun head, and the glue gun piston continues to push the sealant bag outward, pushes the empty bag out of the gun body, and drops it into the collection box under the workbench; moves the gun body to the push rod, extends the push rod into the gun body, continues to move the gun body, and the push rod pushes the glue gun piston to reset the glue gun piston; moves the gun body to one side of the limit baffle, and the second telescopic device pushes the sealant bag on the limit baffle to allow the sealant bag to enter the gun body; moves the gun body to the fixed seat, and the third telescopic device drives the cutter to extend, and the cutter cuts off the seal of the sealant bag; then extends the gun body into the conical hole of the gun head, rotates the gun body, connects the gun body to the gun head, and completes the automatic replacement of the sealant bag in the glue gun.

[0109] Furthermore, in the automatic sealant coating device for the unit curtain wall in this embodiment, the first telescopic device 561 includes: a first cylinder 5611 and a first movable block 5612 .

[0116] The end surface of the second movable block 5622 is arc-shaped. When the second movable block 5622 pushes the sealant bag 4, the arc-shaped end surface of the second movable block 5622 abuts against the spherical end surface of the sealant bag 4 to smoothly push the sealant bag into the gun body of the glue gun.

[0117] Furthermore, in the automatic sealant coating device for unit curtain walls in this embodiment, an observation window is provided on the top surface of the inclined section 541 of the plastic bag magazine 54, through which the usage status of the sealant plastic bags in the plastic bag magazine can be visually observed.

[0118] A first sensor 543 is provided at the top of the vertical section 542 of the plastic bag magazine 54. The first sensor 543 detects the sealant plastic bag in the vertical section 542. When there is no sealant plastic bag at the top of the vertical section 542, the first sensor 543 sends an alarm signal to remind the operator to add a sealant plastic bag into the plastic bag magazine.

[0119] Furthermore, in the automatic sealant coating device for the unit curtain wall in this embodiment, the sealant changing mechanism 5 also includes: a second sensor 58 .

[0120] The second sensor 58 is disposed on the workbench 51 through a fixing member, and is located on one side of the push rod 53. When the push rod 53 pushes the glue gun piston to reset, the second sensor 58 detects the position of the gun body 32 of the glue gun 3. When the push rod 53 extends into the gun body 32 to completely reset the glue gun piston, the second sensor 58 sends a signal to the controller, and the controller controls the manipulator 21 to stop pushing the gun body.

[0121] Furthermore, in the automatic sealant coating device for the unit curtain wall in this embodiment, the fixing seat 52 includes: a first clamping plate 521 , a second clamping plate 522 , a first supporting block 523 and a second supporting block 524 .

[0122] Clamping planes 312 are symmetrically provided on both sides of the rear end side wall of the gun head 31 .

[0123] The first clamping plate 521 and the second clamping plate 522 are arranged on the fixing seat 52 at an interval, and a clamping groove is formed between the first clamping plate 521 and the second clamping plate 522 .

[0124] The first supporting block 523 and the second supporting block 524 are disposed on the fixing seat 52 at intervals, and the top ends of the first supporting block 523 and the second supporting block 524 are arc-shaped.

[0125] When the manipulator 21 drives the glue gun 3 to move to the fixed seat 52, the gun head 31 of the glue gun 3 is inserted between the first clamping plate 521 and the second clamping plate 522, and the clamping planes 312 on both sides of the gun head 31 are respectively abutted against the side surfaces of the first clamping plate 521 and the second clamping plate 522, so that the gun head 31 is fixed on the fixed seat 52, and at the same time, the bottom ends of the gun head 31 and the gun body 32 are respectively abutted against the arc grooves of the first support block 523 and the second support block 524, and then the manipulator drives the gun body to rotate to realize the separation or connection of the gun head and the gun body.
