Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of lamp tube activation, and in particular relates to a bidirectional electrode activation machine. Background Art

[0002] A lamp is a device that converts electrical energy into light energy. A gas discharge lamp is a type of lamp that activates a special gas within the bulb through discharge, causing it to emit light. It comprises a lamp tube and a gas-filled tube connected to the center of the tube. Electrodes are fused to both ends of the lamp tube. During the production process, the special gas is injected into the tube before the bulb is sealed. After injection, the connection between the gas-filled tube and the lamp tube is fused to seal the tube. However, the lamp tube must be electrically activated before use. As the length of the lamp tube increases, the required activation voltage also increases. The existing method of energizing the lamp tube involves manually placing the lamp tube on a processing station under a high-voltage spark gun, which then charges and activates the lamp. However, this process places workers in close proximity to the high-voltage spark gun, making it prone to safety accidents. Furthermore, the processing station can only handle one lamp tube at a time, requiring constant loading, which is labor-intensive. Furthermore, only one end of the lamp tube can be activated at a time, requiring two loadings to complete the activation process for each tube. This is labor-intensive and inefficient. Summary of the Invention

The gantry is also equipped with a fixture lifting drive, which drives the transport fixtures toward or away from the discharge mechanism.

[0010] Furthermore, the transport fixture includes a transport clamping cylinder, a transport guide rail, and a transport mounting base. The transport mounting base is arranged in a circular array on the loading disc, the transport guide rail is slidably connected to the transport mounting base, the transport clamping cylinder is arranged at the lower end of the transport guide rail, and the upper end of the transport guide rail is connected to the fixture lifting drive.

[0011] The loading mechanism further includes a loading disc, a loading motor, and a loading arm. The loading motor is connected to the central axis of the loading disc and is used to drive the loading disc's rotation. The loading arm is mounted on the machine platform, located between the loading disc and the turntable transport mechanism.

Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in the embodiments of the present invention based on specific circumstances.

[0025] In one embodiment of the present invention, reference Figures 1 to 4As shown, a bidirectional electrode activation machine is provided, comprising a machine platform 100. The machine platform 100 is equipped with a loading mechanism 200, a turntable transport mechanism 300, a discharge mechanism 400, a flipping mechanism 500, and an unloading mechanism. The loading mechanism 200 is located on one side of the turntable transport mechanism 300 and is used to transport lamps onto the turntable transport mechanism 300. The flipping mechanism 500 is located on one side of the turntable transport mechanism 300 and is used to flip the lamps on the turntable transport mechanism 300. The discharge mechanism 400 is located at the upper end of the turntable transport mechanism 300 and is used to transport the lamps to the working end of the discharge mechanism 400, where they are then discharged and activated. The unloading mechanism is located on one side of the turntable transport mechanism 300. The turntable transport mechanism 300 sequentially passes through the loading mechanism 200, the discharge mechanism 400, the flipping mechanism 500, and then again passes through the discharge mechanism 400 and the unloading mechanism. The unloading mechanism is used to pick up activated lamps from the turntable transport mechanism 300. In this embodiment, the lamp tube that has not been charged and activated is placed on the loading mechanism 200, and the loading mechanism 200 moves the lamp tube to the turntable transport mechanism 300. The turntable transport mechanism 300 rotates to move the lamp tube to the lower end of the discharge mechanism 400, and the discharge mechanism 400 performs high-voltage activation on the lamp tube. Then the turntable transport mechanism 300 continues to rotate and moves the lamp tube at one end that has been activated to the flipping mechanism 500. The flipping mechanism 500 flips the lamp tube at one end that has been activated on the turntable transport mechanism 300 so that the unactivated end of the lamp tube faces the discharge mechanism 400. Then the turntable flipping mechanism 500 continues to transport the lamp tube at one end that has been activated to the lower end of the discharge mechanism 400, and places it. The electric mechanism 400 continues to discharge and activate the unactivated end of the lamp tube, thereby activating both ends of the lamp tube. Then the turntable transport mechanism 300 transports the lamp tubes with both ends activated to one side of the unloading mechanism. The unloading mechanism unloads the lamp tubes that have been charged and activated to avoid safety accidents caused by workers approaching the discharge mechanism 400 during work. At the same time, workers only need to place the unactivated lamp tubes on the loading mechanism 200, and the unloading mechanism will unload them without manual unloading, reducing the labor intensity of workers. The flipping mechanism 500 can flip the lamp tube without manual flipping, so that the lamp tube can be activated at both ends after the worker loads it once, reducing the labor intensity of workers.

[0026] Specifically, refer to Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the apparatus further includes a loading box 110, which is disposed below the unloading mechanism and on one side of the turntable transport mechanism 300. The loading box 110 is used to load the lamps unloaded from the turntable transport mechanism 300. In this embodiment, the loading box 110 is used to load the lamps unloaded from the turntable transport mechanism 300, so that workers only need to remove the activated lamps from the loading tray after a certain period of time, thereby reducing the labor intensity of the workers.

[0027] Specifically, refer to Figures 1 to 4As shown, the flip mechanism 500 includes a flip mounting base 510, a flip support base 520, a flip cylinder 530, and a flip driver 540. The flip mounting base 510 is mounted on the machine platform 100 and is located on one side of the turntable transport mechanism 300. A flip guide rail 511 is provided on the flip mounting base 510, and the flip guide rail 511 faces the center of the turntable transport mechanism 300. The flip support base 520 is slidably connected to the flip guide rail 511. The flip cylinder 530 is disposed at the upper end of the flip support base 520. The flip driver 540 is disposed on the flip mounting base 510, and the driving end of the flip driver 540 is connected to the flip support base 520 to drive the flip support base 520 to move along the flip guide rail 511. In this embodiment, the flip drive 540 drives the flip support seat 520 to move toward the turntable and the turntable transport mechanism 300, and then the flip cylinder 530 clamps the lamp tube on the turntable transport mechanism 300, and the turntable transport mechanism 300 releases the lamp tube. After the flip cylinder 530 flips the lamp tube 180 degrees, the turntable transport mechanism 300 re-clamps the lamp tube, and the flip cylinder 530 releases the lamp tube. Then the flip drive 540 drives the flip support seat 520 to reset.

[0028] Specifically, refer to Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the discharge mechanism 400 includes a gantry 420 and two discharge assemblies 410. The gantry 420 is mounted on the machine 100 and above the turntable transport mechanism 300. The two discharge assemblies 410 are mounted at the upper end of the gantry 420, with one discharge assembly 410 located at the front end of the flip mechanism 500 and the other discharge assembly 410 located behind the flip mechanism 500. In this embodiment, the turntable transport mechanism 300 transports the lamp to the lower end of one discharge assembly 410, where the discharge assembly 410 discharges and activates one end of the lamp. The turntable transport assembly then transports the activated lamp to the flip mechanism 500, where the flip mechanism 500 flips the activated lamp. The turntable transport mechanism 300 then transports the activated lamp to the other discharge assembly 410, where the discharge assembly 410 discharges and activates the unactivated end of the lamp, thereby activating both ends of the lamp. Using two discharge components 410 to activate both ends of the lamp can shorten the activation time of the lamp.

[0029] Specifically, refer to Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the discharge assembly 410 includes two discharge guns 411. One end of the discharge gun 411 is connected to the gantry 420, and the discharge end of the discharge gun 411 faces the turntable transport mechanism 300. In this embodiment, the discharge assembly 410 includes two discharge guns 411, and the lamps on the turntable are activated twice to ensure that the lamps are more fully activated.

[0030] Specifically, refer to Figures 1 to 4As shown, the turntable transport mechanism 300 includes a loading disc 310 and a transport motor. The transport motor is mounted on the machine 100, with its drive end connected to the axis of the loading disc 310. The transport motor is used to drive the loading disc 310 to rotate.

The gantry 420 is also provided with a fixture lifting drive 421, which is used to drive the transport fixtures 330 toward or away from the discharge mechanism 400. In this embodiment, the transport motor drives the loading disc 310 to rotate, transporting the transport fixtures 330 to below the discharge mechanism 400. The fixture lifting drive 421 drives the transport fixtures 330 toward the discharge mechanism 400, causing the lamps on the transport fixtures 330 to abut against the discharge mechanism 400, thereby activating the lamps.

[0031] Specifically, refer to Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the transport fixture 330 includes a transport clamping cylinder 331, a transport guide rail 332, and a transport mounting base 333. The transport mounting base 333 is arranged in a circular array on the loading disc 310. The transport guide rail 332 is slidably connected to the transport mounting base 333. The transport clamping cylinder 331 is disposed at the lower end of the transport guide rail 332, and the upper end of the transport guide rail 332 is connected to the fixture lifting drive 421. In this embodiment, when the lamp on the transport clamping cylinder 331 needs to be charged and activated, the fixture lifting drive 421 drives the transport guide rail 332 upward, and the transport guide rail 332 slides on the transport mounting base 333, causing the transport clamping cylinder 331 below the transport guide rail 332 to move toward the discharge mechanism 400.

[0032] Specifically, refer to Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the loading mechanism 200 includes a loading disc 210, a loading motor, and a loading arm 230. The loading motor is connected to the central axis of the loading disc 210 and is used to drive the loading disc 210 to rotate. The loading arm 230 is mounted on the machine platform 100 and located between the loading disc 210 and the turntable transport mechanism 300. The loading arm 230 is used to transport the lamps on the loading disc 210 to the turntable transport mechanism 300. The loading disc 210 is provided with a plurality of discharge holes 211 arranged in a circular array on the loading disc 210 for receiving the lamps. In this embodiment, the transport motor drives the loading disc 310 to rotate, moving the lamps on the loading disc 310 below the discharge mechanism 400. The discharge mechanism 400 charges the lamps, keeping workers away from the discharge mechanism 400 and ensuring their safety.

[0033] The loading robot arm 230 includes a loading support frame 231, a loading drive cylinder 232, a loading lift cylinder 233, and a loading clamping cylinder 234. The loading support frame 231 is mounted on the machine platform 100 and located between the loading disc 210 and the turntable transport mechanism 300. A loading guide rail 235 is provided at the upper end of the loading support frame 231. The loading lift cylinder 233 is slidably mounted on the loading guide rail 235. The loading drive cylinder 232 is mounted on one side of the loading support frame 231. The driving end of the loading drive cylinder 232 is connected to the loading lift cylinder 233, driving the loading drive cylinder 232 to move along the loading guide rail 235. The loading clamping cylinder 234 is mounted at the driving end of the loading lift cylinder 233. The loading lift cylinder 233 is used to drive the loading clamping cylinder 234 to move toward or away from the machine platform 100. In this embodiment, the turntable transports the unactivated lamp tube to the lower end of the loading and clamping cylinder 234, and the loading and clamping cylinder 233 drives the loading and clamping cylinder 234 to move toward the lamp tube. After the loading and clamping cylinder 234 clamps the lamp tube, the loading and lifting cylinder 233 rises, and then the loading drive cylinder 232 drives the loading and lifting cylinder 233 to move along the loading guide rail 235 toward the turntable transport mechanism 300. The loading and lifting cylinder 233 drives the loading and clamping cylinder 234 to move toward the turntable transport mechanism 300. The loading and clamping cylinder 234 is released, and the lamp tube is placed on the turntable transport mechanism 300, and then reset, and the above process is repeated to complete the loading.

[0034] Specifically, refer to Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a loading box 120 is provided on one side of the feeding mechanism 200.
