[0030] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0031] Example

[0032] Reference Figure 1-8 The present invention provides a technical solution: a rotating dispensing fixture for an automotive camera lens, comprising a base plate 1, mounting brackets 2 fixedly installed at both ends of the top surface of the base plate 1, a placement plate 5 provided on the top surface of the base plate 1, a clamping plate 6 and a pressure plate 7 provided on the top surface of the placement plate 5, a clamping plate 8 provided on the top surface of the placement plate 5, and placement grooves 18 provided on both sides of the pressure plate 7, wherein a camera module 13 is placed inside the placement grooves 18.

[0033] The rotating assembly includes a rotary cylinder 10, which is located above the base plate 1. The output end of the rotary cylinder 10 is fixedly connected to one end of the placement plate 5. By setting the rotating assembly, the placement plate 5 can be rotated 180 degrees. By starting the rotary cylinder 10, the placement plate 5 can be reversed 180 degrees to achieve glue dispensing on the reverse side. After the glue dispensing on both the front and back sides of the pressure plate 7 is completed, the three-axis cylinder 11 drives the clamping frame 19 to retract, causing the clamping plate 8 to lose its limit. Then, by de-energizing the electromagnet 21, the clamping plate 8 loses its fixing source inside the electromagnet 21. By holding the handle 9 and pulling upward, the pressure plate 7 can be easily taken out from between the two clamping plates 6.

[0034] The fixing component is set above the base plate 1. The fixing component includes a three-axis cylinder 11, which is fixedly installed on the top surface of the placement plate 5. A snap-fit ​​bracket 19 is fixedly installed on the top end of the output shaft of the three-axis cylinder 11. By setting the fixing component, the pressure plate 7 can be effectively fixed to the inner side of the two clamping plates 6. By starting the three-axis cylinder 11, the output end of the three-axis cylinder 11 drives the snap-fit ​​bracket 19 to move towards the clamping plate 8. When the inclined groove 24 opened on the bottom surface of the snap-fit ​​bracket 19 engages with the wedge block 23, and one end of the snap-fit ​​bracket 19 contacts one end of the pressure plate 7, the pressure plate 7 can be further stably placed between the two clamping plates 6, so that the pressure plate 7 will not fall off when dispensing glue.

[0035] The top surface of the placement plate 5 has a mounting groove 20. The clamping plate 8 is snapped into the inside of the mounting groove 20. The top surface of the clamping plate 8 is provided with a handle 9. The top surface of the pressure plate 7 has a through groove in the middle. The handle 9 extends to the outside of the pressure plate 7 through the through groove. By providing the handle 9, it is easy and quick to grip the handle 9 and pull it upward, so that the clamping plate 8 drives the pressure plate 7 out of the two clamping plates 6, which facilitates the removal of the camera module 13 after glue application. The outer and inner surfaces of the handle 9 are both frosted. Since the inner and outer walls of the handle 9 are both frosted, it can effectively prevent the palm from slipping on the handle 9 when gripping it and pulling upward, further facilitating the removal of the pressure plate 7. The handle 9 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the clamping plate 8, and the mounting groove 20... An electromagnet 21 is fixedly installed inside the plate 7. The clamping plate 8 is fixedly installed inside the mounting slot 20 via the electromagnet 21. After the adhesive is applied to both the front and back of the pressure plate 7, the three-axis cylinder 11 drives the clamping bracket 19 to retract, causing the clamping plate 8 to lose its limit position. Then, by de-energizing the electromagnet 21, the clamping plate 8 loses its fixing source inside the electromagnet 21. It can then be easily removed from between the two clamping plates 6 by grasping the handle 9 and pulling upwards. When the clamping plate 8 is placed inside the electromagnet 21, it effectively installs the clamping plate 8 inside the electromagnet 21, making installation and disassembly convenient. There are two clamping plates 6, both installed inside the mounting slot 20. The top surface of plate 5 is located on both sides of the mounting groove 20. The inner surface of clamping plate 6 is in contact with the two side surfaces of pressure plate 7. Multiple slots 14 are provided on the inner wall of clamping plate 6. The multiple slots 14 are equidistantly provided on the inner wall of clamping plate 6. The inside of each slot 14 is provided with a groove 16. A cotton pad 17 is fixedly installed inside each groove 16. By setting the cotton pad 17, the camera module 13 can be buffered and protected to prevent scratching the product. Both ends of pressure plate 7 are fixedly installed with protrusions 15. Limiting brackets 22 are fixedly installed on the inner wall of clamping plate 6. The top surface of the limiting bracket 22 is provided with a snap-fit ​​groove that matches the size of the protrusion 15. By setting the limiting bracket 22 and the protrusion 15, the protrusion 15 is snapped into the inside of the limiting bracket 22, ensuring that pressure plate 7 can be accurately positioned. The plate 7 is positioned in the center of the two clamping plates 6 to prevent dispensing failure due to improper installation of the pressure plate 7. A T-shaped plate 3 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the base plate 1, and an L-shaped plate 4 is rotatably installed on one side surface of the T-shaped plate 3. The placement plate 5 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the L-shaped plate 4. By setting the T-shaped plate 3 and the L-shaped plate 4, the placement plate 5 can be effectively installed, making the placement plate 5 more stable when rotating. The bottom surface of the snap-fit ​​bracket 19 has a slanted groove 24. The snap-fit ​​plate 8 is located at one end of the snap-fit ​​bracket 19 and has a wedge 23 that matches the slanted groove 24. A fixing frame 12 is set above the snap-fit ​​bracket 19. The two ends of the fixing frame 12 are installed on the top surface of the placement plate 5. By starting the three-axis cylinder 11, the output end of the three-axis cylinder 11 drives the snap-fit ​​bracket 19 to move towards the snap-fit ​​plate 8.When the inclined groove 24 on the bottom surface of the snap-fit ​​bracket 19 engages with the wedge block 23, and one end of the snap-fit ​​bracket 19 contacts one end of the pressure plate 7, the pressure plate 7 can be further stabilized and installed.

[0036] Specifically, the working process or principle of this automotive camera lens rotating dispensing fixture is as follows: In use, first, the placement groove 18 is accurately placed inside the placement groove 18. Then, the pressure plate 7 is placed inside the two clamping plates 6, so that the protrusion 15 engages with the inside of the limiting frame 22, ensuring that the pressure plate 7 is accurately positioned in the center of the two clamping plates 6. After the pressure plate 7 is placed, the three-axis cylinder 11 is activated. The output end of the three-axis cylinder 11 drives the clamping frame 19 to move towards the clamping plate 8. When the inclined groove 24 on the bottom surface of the clamping frame 19 engages with the wedge 23, and one end of the clamping frame 19 contacts one end of the pressure plate 7, the pressure plate 7 can be further stably placed between the two clamping plates 6, allowing the pressure plate 7 to be more stable during dispensing. Plate 7 will not fall off, and then the glue dispensing operation can be carried out. After the glue dispensing on the front of the pressure plate 7 is completed, the rotating cylinder 10 can be started to drive the placement plate 5 to rotate 180 degrees to achieve glue dispensing on the back. After the glue dispensing on both the front and back of the pressure plate 7 is completed, the three-axis cylinder 11 drives the clamping bracket 19 to retract, so that the clamping plate 8 loses its limit. Then, by de-energizing the electromagnet 21, the clamping plate 8 loses its fixed source inside the electromagnet 21. By holding the handle 9 and pulling upward, the pressure plate 7 can be easily taken out from between the two clamping plates 6, thereby taking out the camera module 13 with glue dispensing completed inside the placement slot 18. Then, repeating this process, the glue dispensing operation of the next batch of camera modules 13 can be carried out.

[0037] It should be noted that the rotary cylinder 10 and the triaxial cylinder 11 are existing devices or equipment, or devices or equipment that can be implemented by existing technology. Their power supply, specific composition and principle are clear to those skilled in the art, so they will not be described in detail here.
