Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of dispensing equipment technology, and particularly relates to an online 3D guided dispensing machine and its control method. Background Technology
[0002] With the wave of industrial intelligence, the electronics manufacturing industry has ushered in an opportunity for upgrading, but also faces many challenges. In the traditional dispensing production process, product inspection relies on manual labor, which not only places high demands on operators, but also results in inconsistent manual operation standards, leading to poor product quality stability.
[0003] As the requirements for dispensing continue to increase, dispensing paths have expanded from the traditional 2D mode to a 3D mode. Traditional 2D guidance cannot provide the Z coordinate of the dispensing path; it can only pre-input the Z coordinate or perform dispensing along a completely planar path.
[0004] Therefore, there is a need to provide an online 3D guided dispensing machine to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

[0012] The required amount of adhesive is measured using a weighing device;
[0013] The dual-channel Y-axis motion assembly feeds the product into one channel and then conveys it through several conveying units to the 3D guide assembly for 3D inspection. At the same time, the dual-channel Y-axis motion assembly feeds the product into the other channel.
[0014] The product that has completed 3D inspection is transported by the active conveyor unit to the dispensing assembly for dispensing, while the product on the other channel of the dual-channel Y-axis motion assembly is transported to the 3D guide assembly for 3D inspection.
[0015] The product after the dispensing operation is completed is unloaded and output by the dual-channel Y-axis motion assembly. At the same time, the movable conveyor unit is reset, and the dispensing assembly is cleaned by the wiping assembly. The product after 3D inspection is conveyed to the dispensing assembly by another movable conveyor unit for dispensing operation.

[0028] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the invention.
[0029] The specific implementation of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.
[0030] like Figure 1-9 As shown, an online 3D guided dispensing machine provided in this embodiment of the invention includes a frame 1 and a dual-channel Y-axis motion assembly 7, an X-axis motion assembly 1 6, an X-axis motion assembly 2, a Z-axis motion assembly 1 56, a Z-axis motion assembly 26, a 3D guiding assembly 5, a dispensing assembly 4, and a glue wiping and weighing assembly 3 disposed on the frame 1.
[0031] The dual-channel Y-axis motion assembly 7 is used to drive the product to be conveyed along the Y direction to pass sequentially through the 3D guide assembly 5 and the dispensing assembly 4.
[0032] The X-axis motion component 6 spans the dual-channel Y-axis motion component 7, the Z-axis motion component 56 is disposed at the moving end of the X-axis motion component 6, and the 3D guide component 5 is disposed at the moving end of the Z-axis motion component 56.
[0033] The second X-axis motion component 2 spans the dual-channel Y-axis motion component 7, the second Z-axis motion component 26 is disposed at the moving end of the second X-axis motion component 2, and the dispensing component 4 is disposed at the moving end of the second Z-axis motion component 26.
[0034] The adhesive weighing component 3 is located on the side of the dual-channel Y-axis motion component 7 and is used for weighing the amount of adhesive dispensed and cleaning the dispensing point 31.

[0036] In this embodiment, the dual-channel Y-axis motion assembly 7 is provided with two conveying channels. The two conveying channels can work independently. Preferably, the conveying actions of the two conveying channels are staggered, so that the time interval between actions can be used to make the 3D guiding assembly 5 and the dispensing assembly 4 work continuously without interruption, thereby improving dispensing efficiency.
[0037] In this embodiment, the 3D guide component 5 can collect the three-dimensional dispensing path of the product and transmit the collected path to the dispensing component 4, enabling the dispensing component 4 to perform three-dimensional online dispensing. Here, "online" means that the product's dispensing path coordinates do not need to be pre-inputted, and the dispensing path can be collected online in real time. Furthermore, the dispensing path collected by the 3D guide component 5 can be used to calculate the total amount of glue required and the amount of glue required for each step of the dispensing component 4, thereby achieving precise dispensing control.
[0038] In this embodiment, a glue-wiping and weighing component 3 is also provided to clean the glue dispensing point 31.

Each set of Y-axis conveying assemblies consists of several conveying units 81. At least one conveying unit 81 in each set of Y-axis conveying assemblies is driven by the Y-axis power execution assembly 82 to move along the Y-axis direction, thereby conveying the product from the conveying unit 81 at one end of the same group to the conveying unit 81 at the other end of the same group.
[0069] The conveying unit 81 includes a bottom fixing plate 93 and a conveying assembly, a width adjustment assembly, and a material blocking assembly 104 disposed on the bottom fixing plate 93;
[0070] The conveying assembly includes two opposing track columns 100, with outer track components 97 mounted on each track column 100. A power transmission roller 106 is located in the middle of one of the two outer track components 97 facing each other, and the power transmission roller 106 is connected to the output shaft of a motor.

[0074] In this embodiment, the conveying unit 81 that can move along the Y direction driven by the Y-axis power actuator 82 is the active conveying unit 81. The active conveying unit 81 is used to convey the product between the 3D guide component 5 and the dispensing component 4. The difference between the active conveying unit 81 and other non-active conveying units 81 is that the active conveying unit 81 is driven and connected to the Y-axis power actuator 82.
[0075] In this embodiment, the conveying unit 81 consists of a conveying component, a width adjustment component, and a stop component 104. The conveying component performs the conveying function, specifically using belt conveying.

The adhesive wiping block 305, the take-up roller, and the feed roller are all mounted on an adhesive wiping fixing plate 304, which is supported by a fixing base 306. The fixing base 306 is mounted on a mounting plate 302.
[0079] The weighing device 301 is mounted on the mounting plate 302 and is used for weighing the glue.
[0080] In this embodiment, the take-up roller and the unloading roller of the adhesive application assembly rotate, thereby moving the adhesive tape to wipe and clean the adhesive application point 31, ensuring the cleanliness of the adhesive application point 31.
[0081] In this embodiment, a weighing device 301 is also provided. The weighing device 301 can control the amount of adhesive applied to each product or each dispensing path, thereby making the dispensing more uniform. Optionally, in this embodiment, the weighing device 301 is connected to the dispensing device 25 via a flexible hose, and the weighed adhesive is transported to the dispensing device 25 through a pipe; since there is already adhesive in the pipe, the transport process will not reduce the amount of adhesive.
