Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of ultrasonic welding equipment, in particular to an ultrasonic welding machine, a horn assembly thereof and a working method. BACKGROUND

[0002] The ultrasonic welding machine is an advanced high-tech equipment that converts high-frequency electric energy into mechanical vibration energy through a transducer, and applies the mechanical vibration energy to workpieces to generate high-frequency friction between the surfaces of the workpieces until the surfaces of the workpieces are melted together by heat. The ultrasonic welding machine has the advantages of high working efficiency, simple operation and labor cost saving, and is widely used in the industries of daily necessities, toys, electrical appliances, automobile manufacturing and electronics.

[0003] In the mode adjustment and normal operation of the existing ultrasonic welding machine, the welding head needs to be lowered to approach the workpiece to be welded and the ultrasonic wave is started in advance. A kind of existing ultrasonic welding machine has a scheme of starting ultrasonic wave by using a delay relay before the welding head stops descending. However, when different molds are replaced for production, not only the position of the horn assembly needs to be adjusted, but also the time of descending the vibration cylinder assembly needs to be calculated first, and then the delay relay needs to be adjusted to adjust the trigger time of the ultrasonic wave to be less than the descending time of the vibration cylinder assembly, to meet the production needs of different molds. This not only needs multiple adjustments, but also is prone to adjustment errors. Moreover, when the corresponding parts are damaged, the speed of the vibration cylinder descending is affected, which is prone to the problems of starting the ultrasonic wave in advance when the vibration cylinder does not descend to the corresponding position, or the vibration cylinder descending to the position in advance, resulting in the ultrasonic wave being dead, and the ultrasonic wave cannot be started.
