Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of product terminal assembly, and specifically relates to an automatic sponge tape applicator and its working method. Background Technology
[0002] With economic development and social progress, automation has become a basic consensus across various industries. As the difficulty in recruiting workers becomes increasingly widespread, various processes are being automated as much as possible.
[0003] The existing L-shaped inner top corner seals of containers require the application of foam tape, which is currently mainly done manually. Due to the fast pace of the process, two dedicated people are needed for the application, making manual application slow and significantly impacting processing efficiency. Furthermore, it consumes a large amount of manpower, increasing the company's labor costs.
[0004] Currently, most equipment on the market focuses on applying short-distance tape or labels, with either separate or no cutting equipment available. There is no equipment perfectly suited for sealing the inner top corners of L-shaped containers with foam tape. Summary of the Invention
[0005] Purpose of the invention: In order to overcome the above shortcomings, the purpose of this invention is to provide an automatic sponge tape applicator, which has a simple structure, reasonable design, is easy to produce, has a high degree of automation, reduces manual labor, and improves work efficiency.
[0006] Technical Solution: To achieve the above objectives, this invention provides an automatic sponge tape applicator, comprising: a corner placement frame assembly, a transport mechanism, a sponge tape separating mechanism, an applicating mechanism, and a cutting mechanism. The transport mechanism is located on one side of the corner placement frame assembly and cooperates with it. The sponge tape separating mechanism is located outside the transport mechanism, the applicating mechanism is located at one end of the transport mechanism, and the cutting mechanism is located outside the applicating mechanism. This automatic sponge tape applicator, through the cooperation of the transport mechanism, the sponge tape separating mechanism, the applicating mechanism, and the cutting mechanism, automates the feeding, separation, applicating, and cutting of the sponge tape, greatly improving the corner sealing applicator efficiency, replacing manual operation, ensuring process continuity, improving process accuracy, reducing worker workload, and lowering enterprise labor costs.
[0007] The corner placement frame assembly includes a support frame, a placement frame, and a corner seal. The placement frame is mounted on the support frame and has a set of rollers. The corner seal is positioned above the placement frame, and a pressure block and a sensor are located on the placement frame relative to the application mechanism. The rollers reduce friction, and the pressure block remains below the corner seal. When operation is interrupted, the compression spring in the pressure block releases, and the pressure block presses against the pressing disc, effectively securing the adhesive tape. After operation resumes, the corner seal restarts operation along the inclined surface of the pressure block. During operation interruption, the sensor sends a signal, activating the motor in the adhesive tape support rod, which rotates the cam. One of the support rods moves linearly to secure the adhesive tape, ensuring it does not slip.
[0008] Furthermore, the transport mechanism includes a sprocket support frame, a first sprocket, a second sprocket, a chain, a set of clamping assemblies, and a sprocket motor. The sprocket support frames are arranged opposite each other. The first sprocket is mounted on the sprocket support frame, and the second sprocket is mounted on the output end of the sprocket motor. The sprocket motor is mounted on a motor support frame, and the first and second sprockets are connected by chain drive. The clamping assembly is mounted on the chain and clamps onto the corner seal. In the transport mechanism, the clamping assembly can clamp the corner seal. The sprocket motor drives the second sprocket, the first sprocket, and the chain to move, thereby causing the clamps to move forward while clamping the corner seal, thus achieving automation.
[0009] Preferably, the sponge tape separating mechanism includes a support base, a tape placement disc, a tape collection disc, a tape collection disc reduction motor, and a tape support frame. The support base is located outside the transport mechanism. The tape placement disc, tape collection disc reduction motor, and tape support frame are all mounted on the support base. The tape collection disc is mounted on the output shaft of the tape collection disc reduction motor. The sponge tape separating mechanism achieves automatic tape feeding through the tape placement disc and tape support. Simultaneously, the tape collection disc reduction motor and tape collection disc automatically peel and collect the tape, achieving automated separation and ensuring subsequent automatic application.
[0010] Furthermore, the application mechanism includes a pressing disc, a drive motor, a motor bracket, a motor bracket linkage assembly, and a linkage tension spring. The motor bracket linkage assembly includes a linkage mounting base and a motor bracket linkage. One end of the motor bracket linkage is hinged to the linkage mounting base, and a support column is provided on the linkage mounting base. The linkage tension spring is mounted on the support column, and its upper end is mounted on a support plate. The support plate is engaged with the motor bracket linkage. The motor bracket is located at the end of the motor bracket linkage away from the linkage mounting base. The drive motor is mounted on the motor bracket, and the pressing disc is mounted on the output shaft of the drive motor. During the rotation of the drive motor in the application mechanism, the sponge tape is pressed down. Simultaneously, the linkage tension spring tightens the motor bracket, causing the pressing disc to firmly press the sponge tape, ensuring that the sponge tape adheres tightly to the top corner sealing surface.
[0011] Furthermore, the cutting mechanism includes a cutting support, a lifting mechanism, a cutting drive mechanism, a guide rail, a set of scissor blades, and a set of connecting rods. The lifting mechanism is mounted on the cutting support, and the cutting drive mechanism is mounted on the cutting support and located above the lifting mechanism. The guide rail is located on one side of the cutting support. The scissor blades are cross-connected via connecting shafts. One end of the connecting rod is connected to the cutting drive mechanism via a pin, and the other end is located on one side of the guide rail. The connecting rod and the end of the scissor blades are coaxially connected via connecting shafts. This cutting mechanism enables automated glue cutting, allowing for fully automated production from material supply to application.
[0012] Preferably, the lifting mechanism includes a lifting guide rail, a lifting motor, and a lifting cam. The lifting guide rail is mounted on a shearing support, the lifting motor is mounted on the lifting guide rail and on one side of the lifting guide rail, the lifting cam is mounted on one side of the lifting guide rail and connected to the lifting motor, and the shearing drive mechanism cooperates with the lifting cam.
[0013] More preferably, the shearing drive mechanism includes a transverse guide rail, a connecting rod slider, a compression spring, a cam, and a cam motor. The transverse guide rail is mounted on the lifting guide rail, and the connecting rod slider is mounted on the transverse guide rail, with the two being movably connected. The compression spring is located inside the transverse guide rail and at one end of the connecting rod slider, and the two cooperate with each other. The cam is located at the end of the connecting rod slider away from the compression spring. The cam motor is connected to the shearing support through a first support seat, and the cam is connected to the output end of the cam motor. The cam cooperates with the transverse guide rail.
[0014] More preferably, the clamp assembly includes a clamp mounting base, a clamp driving mechanism, and a set of clamps. The clamp mounting base is connected to the chain via a connecting piece. The clamp driving mechanism is located on one side of the clamp mounting base. The tails of the clamps are arranged crosswise and connected to the clamp mounting base via pins. The ends of the clamps are connected to the drive plate in the clamp driving mechanism via a first connecting rod. The drive plate is connected to the output shaft of the lead screw motor.
[0015] The tape support frame of this invention includes a mounting frame, an upper tape support clamp, a lower tape support clamp, a first cam, and a motor. The mounting frame is connected to a support base by bolts. The upper tape support clamp is connected to a vertical mounting frame at the end of the mounting frame away from the support base. The vertical mounting frame is provided with a sliding groove. The lower tape support clamp is connected to the sliding groove in a lifting manner, and a spring is provided below the lower tape support clamp. The first cam is located below the lower tape support clamp. The motor is located on the other side of the vertical mounting frame opposite the first cam, and the first cam is connected to the output shaft of the motor. The first cam cooperates with the lower tape support clamp.
[0016] The working method of the automatic sponge tape applicator described in this invention is as follows: 1): Place the top corner seal on the support frame, place the sponge tape on the tape placement disc, and hang the sponge tape on the tape support frame;
[0017] 2): The lead screw motor in the clamp assembly operates, driving the drive plate and the first connecting rod to move, thereby clamping the top corner seal;
[0018] 3) The sprocket motor runs continuously, driving the second sprocket to rotate. The rotation of the second sprocket drives the chain to rotate, and the first sprocket rotates along with it. Simultaneously, because the clamp assembly is connected to the chain, the chain drive will cause the clamp assembly to move, thus moving the corner seal forward. The clamp pulls the roller forward, reducing friction.
[0019] 4): Then, the adhesive is applied to it. The tape placement disc rotates and feeds the sponge tape to the top corner seal. At the same time, the tape collection disc is driven by a speed reducer to rotate and start collecting the tape. The sponge tape behind the glass passes through the tape support frame and reaches the position of the application mechanism.
[0020] 5): Perform adhesive processing, that is, during the rotation of the drive motor, the sponge tape is pressed tightly. At the same time, the connecting rod tension spring tightens the motor bracket, so that the pressing disc presses the sponge tape tightly, ensuring that the sponge tape adheres tightly to the top corner sealing surface.
[0021] 6): The shearing mechanism cuts off when the top corner seal reaches the designated position. The cam motor drives the cam to rotate rapidly, and at the same time, the compression spring extends, causing the two scissor blades to quickly cut off through the connecting rod. Then, the two scissor blades remain closed for a fixed period of time.
[0022] 7): When the long shaft of the cam rotates to the connecting rod slider again, the compression spring is compressed, which drives the shear blades to open again, thus completing one cutting operation;
[0023] 8): At the same time, in order to prevent the sponge tape from sticking to the scissors, the lifting mechanism will start to work, that is, the lifting motor will work to rotate and drive the lifting cam to work, so that the horizontal guide rail, connecting rod slider, compression spring, and the two scissor blades and connecting rod move downward, forcing the sponge tape stuck to the scissor blades to detach from the scissor blades and avoid sticking to the blades;
[0024] 9): The lifting cam resets after rotating one revolution. During the resetting process of the lifting cam, the shear blades also reset to their original positions.
[0025] 10): During operation, the pressure block is always located at the bottom of the top corner seal. When the operation is interrupted, the compression spring in the pressure block is released, and the pressure block and the pressing disc squeeze each other, effectively fixing the sponge tape. After the operation is restored, the top corner seal resumes operation along the inclined surface of the pressure block.
[0026] 11): During the above operation, when the operation is interrupted, the sensor sends a signal, the motor in the tape support frame runs, and drives the first cam to rotate. The lower support plate of the tape moves up and down in a straight line along the sliding groove of the vertical mounting frame, directly participating in fixing the sponge tape and ensuring that the sponge tape will not slip.
[0027] As can be seen from the above technical solution, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0028] 1. The automatic sponge tape applicator of the present invention, through the cooperation of a transport mechanism, a sponge tape separation mechanism, an applicating mechanism, and a cutting mechanism, automates the feeding, tape separation, applicating, and cutting of sponge tape, greatly improving the efficiency of corner sealing, replacing manual operation, ensuring process continuity, improving process accuracy, reducing worker workload, and lowering enterprise labor input costs.
[0029] 2. The rollers described in this invention reduce friction, while the pressure block remains positioned below the corner seal. When operation is interrupted, the compression spring in the pressure block releases, causing the pressure block and the pressing disc to press against each other, effectively securing the sponge tape. Upon resumption of operation, the corner seal restarts its work along the inclined surface of the pressure block. During operation interruption, a sensor sends a signal, activating the motor in the sponge tape support rod, which in turn rotates the cam. One of the support rods moves linearly, participating in securing the sponge tape and ensuring it does not slip.
[0030] 3. In the present invention, the clamping assembly in the transport mechanism can clamp the top corner seal. The second sprocket, the first sprocket, and the chain are driven by the sprocket motor to move, thereby making the clamping assembly move forward while holding the top corner seal, thus achieving automation.
[0031] 4. In this invention, the sponge tape separation mechanism realizes automatic tape feeding through the tape placement disc and tape support. At the same time, the tape paper collection disc reduction motor and tape paper collection disc can automatically peel and recycle the tape paper, realizing automated separation and ensuring the realization of subsequent automatic pasting.
[0032] 5. In the present invention, during the rotation of the drive motor in the pasting mechanism, the sponge tape is pressed tightly. At the same time, the connecting rod tension spring tightens the motor bracket, so that the pressing disc presses the sponge tape tightly, ensuring that the sponge tape adheres tightly to the top corner sealing surface.
[0033] 6. The cutting mechanism in this invention enables automated glue cutting, allowing for fully automated production from material supply to application completion. Attached Figure Description

[0069] 2: The lead screw motor in the clamp assembly 25 runs, driving the drive plate 255 and the first connecting rod 254 to move, thereby causing the clamp assembly 253 to clamp the top corner seal;
[0070] 3: The sprocket motor 26 runs continuously, driving the second sprocket 23 to rotate. When the second sprocket 23 rotates, it drives the chain 24 to rotate. Under the drive of the chain 24, the first sprocket 22 rotates along with it. At the same time, since the clamp assembly 25 is connected to the chain 24, the chain 24 will drive the clamp assembly 25 to move during transmission, thereby driving the top corner seal to move forward. When the clamp 253 clamps and pulls the roller 19 forward, it reduces friction.
[0071] 4: Then, the adhesive is applied to it, that is, the tape placement disc 32 rotates to convey the sponge tape to the top corner seal. At the same time, the tape collection disc reduction motor 34 drives the tape collection disc 33 to rotate to start collecting the tape. The sponge tape behind the glass passes through the tape support frame 35 and reaches the position of the application mechanism 4.
[0072] 5: Perform adhesive processing, that is, during the rotation of the drive motor 42, the sponge tape is pressed tightly. At the same time, the connecting rod tension spring 45 pulls the motor bracket 43, so that the pressing disc 41 presses the sponge tape tightly, ensuring that the sponge tape is tightly attached to the top corner sealing surface.
[0073] 6: The shearing mechanism 5 cuts, that is, when the top corner seal reaches the designated position, the cam motor 535 drives the cam 534 to rotate rapidly, and at the same time the compression spring 533 extends, which causes the two scissor blades 55 to quickly perform a cutting action through the connecting rod 56. Then, the two scissor blades 55 remain closed for a fixed period of time.
[0074] 7: When the long shaft of cam 534 rotates to the connecting rod slider 532 again, the compression spring 533 is compressed, thereby driving the shear blade 55 to open again, thus completing one cutting operation.
[0075] 8: At the same time, in order to prevent the sponge tape from sticking to the scissors, the lifting mechanism 52 will start to work, that is, the lifting motor 522 will work to drive the lifting cam 523 to work, so that the transverse guide rail 531, the connecting rod slider 532, the compression spring 533, the two scissor blades 55 and the connecting rod 56 move downward, forcing the sponge tape stuck to the scissor blades 55 to detach from the scissor blades 55, thus avoiding sticking to the blades.
[0076] 9: The lifting cam 523 returns to its original position after rotating one revolution. During the process of the lifting cam 523 returning to its original position, the shear blade 55 also returns to its original position.
[0077] 10: During operation, the pressure block 15 is always located at the bottom of the top corner seal. When the operation is interrupted, the compression spring in the pressure block 15 is released, and the pressure block 15 and the pressing disc 41 press against each other, effectively fixing the sponge tape. After the operation is restored, the top corner seal restarts operation along the inclined surface of the pressure block 15.
[0078] 11: During the above operation, when the operation is interrupted, the sensor 16 sends a signal, the motor 355 in the tape support frame 35 starts to run, and drives the first cam 354 to rotate. The tape lower support clamp 353 moves up and down in a straight line along the sliding groove of the vertical mounting frame 356, directly participating in fixing the sponge tape and ensuring that the sponge tape will not slip.
[0079] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make several improvements without departing from the principle of the present invention, and these improvements should also be considered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
